Awesome, enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing, jah bless!
It's a blessing up taller 🙏 Jah live
9:30 that guy's not Orthodox. I've been to Tawehdo church. They certainly don't believe that Hailie Selassie was the second coming of Jesus. Hailie himself was a follower of Jesus and specifically said he was not Jesus.
thats exactly what they think. which is a little mind blowing because how spiritual considerate and respectful these people are. It is exactly what they beleived they idolised a living man like he was a god and that was god was The lords Son Jesus Christ.
You got it! It's a wonder why more Rasta's don't see this...If my brothers and sisters would just do some research then they could get set free from the true enemy's attempt to divide and conquer!
@@Tsadakah im a rasta seeing this and not all rastas believe selassie was jesus christ.
Most rastas I know believe he is a descendant of King Solomon 🤔

Love that garden tool. 19.19. Start exporting it please.😊 It's brilliant. Would a woman be able to use it? Normal strength type of woman? "LiVerty" is also good.
I'm from South Africa, I have many Rasta friends. Grew up on Bob Marley and other musical struggle icons from various genres and backgrounds (who my parents listened to during their years of struggle against the Apartheid regime). To me, I see Rastafarians as the 20th century equivalent of 21st century "Hebrew Israelites". Much like the 20th century "Nation of Islam" and "Black Muslims" as well, who I feel fall into the same category. These were sociocultural and sociopolitical reactionary movements formed during their respective eras in history. The children of the diaspora, confused, misguided, oppressed, and faced with a serious identity crisis, began creating their own. Afrocentric subcultures and/or countercultures is what it is, and what it was.
But they(treat their women, like SERVEants)'re MISSogynists (akin to Islam) . 🤐
Thank you 🙏🏾 🌸🪷
Jesus said:Bofore Abraham was I AM. Selassie said:i am mortal. Sallasie was a king of a earthly nation. Jesus said my kingdom is not of this world. Selassie died and is still in the grave. Jesus died and resurrected because in Him is life eternal, unborrowed, underived. Jesus said: Matthew24:23¶Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25Behold, I have told you before. 26¶Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
This is what you fail to 👀Isaiah 9:6-7 KJV For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this👂🔥Psalm 87 KJV His foundation is in the holy mountains. The Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah. I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there. And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her. The Lord shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there.…
@@MrAdrianjohnson you wrest the scriptures unto your own destruction. Isaiah9 is about Jesus Christ born 2thousand years ago.
@@MrAdrianjohnson when Jesus comes as the Lion, the almigthy conquering King of kings He will litterly destroy the world and millions of angels will be on His side. selassie did not do any of that. selassie was a normal man of a normal earthly kingdom. Jesus Christ Born 2thousand years ago said that His kingdom is not of this world. How hard is that to understand?
@@MrAdrianjohnson When Jesus ascended to Heaven 2thousand Years ago He had holes in His hands. Those holes will be there for eternity. Selassie did not have holes in his hands because he was not crucified. When Jesus ascended to heaven 2thousand years ago He had a New body that can not die it can not age nor get sick. selassie got old, he got sick and he died. Jesus siad nothing about Him coming again from the womb of a woman. Jesus Will destroy the earth witth the breath of His mouth and the brightness of His comming. HE WILL BURN THE EARTH AND ALL THE ELEMENTS SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT. selassie did not do any of that, he lived a normal human life, he did not heal the sick or raise the dead, selassie did not cast out demons nor did he free the people of their sins.
Selassie never claimed to be God or Jesus but was the head of the Ethiopian monarchy and continually promoted his Orthodox Christian roots. I think the late singer Garnet Silk said it best - Christ in his kingly character. There are people who show up in the course of the history of time and have an impact and no doubt Halie Selassie was a devout believer.
Bob marley was baptized in Ethiopia and christian before he died. Even Haile Selassie was a christian and said do not worship him.
Interesting insights into an area often misunderstood by so many. Let's look at a few things covered in this documentary: 1. The name Jah is a name "all" Christians (regardless of denomination) should be identified/associated with (Psalms 68: 4). Weirdly enough only Rastafarians use this name...any guess. 2. Nazareen Vow: The abstinence of certain foods (meat etc) isn't a legalistic requirement given that Yeshua (Jesus) has satisfied the Creator's righteous requirement. In essence, Rastafari is the remarkable story of when a man became God but was always God from the beginning. We (72 nations) of the world gave our tacit approval that He, Qedamawi Haile Selassie 1 is the Almighty Creator of all things (Psalms 87). Ironically enough, we even made Him into the world's most decorated statesman in history (ref: Ethiopia Shall Stretch Forth Her Hands Unto God - Gregory Copley). The title comes from Ps. 68, which came to pass when He returned to His country on 5th May, 1936. Those who will judge/evaluate the 'life and times' of H. I. Majesty may well wonder (or reasonably ask themselves) is this God Himself? Our audience will have to reconcile whether there can be 2 'King of Kings and Lord of Lords'....I think most will resign and say not...unless the devine is the author of confusion?....A watch of: Haile Selassie 1 visits the Vatican 1970 ( KZhead).....this is the "terror of truth". Nugget: Footage shows that the emperor choses the door of His choosing to enter. Is it because He is the door??...(you can decide). Questions are always welcomed!....Also, check out my latest reggae release on KZhead 'Serious Times' (and much more!).
So basically it's insane nonsense..got it .
Remember, Bob Marley himself was baptized in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church before his death.
So was his son and his wife, but they still rastas, bob didn't die till months after and he never once said he was no longer a rastaman, rastafari is a livity, a way of life it's in the heart, bob died a rastaman buried with his dreadlocks, many rastaman go to the Ethiopian orphadox church and embrace it.
Foolish ppl will always try and make rasta look crazy, if you actually pay attention you can see why they would believe in His Majesty, ppl tend to forget Christ did not tell his followers to worship him, and neither did His Majesty, ive had one dream of his majesty before i was thinking serious about rasta, and i was in high elevation surrounded by forest and a lake when i had this dream, there was nothing showing me that this dream was a false or demonic dream
mystic revelation
What did u then see? Tell me more about your dream man..
Wow absolutely amazing ❤️💛💚

i think you could call it a type of "Gnostic Christianity"
Yeap.. reality... knowledge, consciousness, Unconditional Love
Its African Judaism following a form of Ethiopian Orthodox that's influenced by hebrews who lived there,
Song of Solomon 5:14-15 14 His arms are rods of gold, set with ljewels. His body is polished ivory,2 bedecked with msapphires.3 15 His legs are alabaster columns, set on bases of gold. His appearance is like oLebanon, choice as the cedars.
The carnal mind is death indeed because there will be no understanding in it.
I like this religion but I got to do more diggin
It is NOT a religion
His majesty glory in the Bible, the defender of the faith, their is no “hidden” connection it is straight forward! Nah watah down and a lot of them jus don’t understand!
I totally agree with you. Pure Scripture and liberation.
Look at him the lord
As Rastafarians, we must always be on guard against any kind of dogma determining the tenets of the Philosophy of RASTAFARI. In other words, we must be willing to examine the contents of our beliefs, the origin of our beliefs, the logic of our beliefs, and the probable truth or falsity of our beliefs. Three of the original tenets of the Rastafarian Movement were (1) the belief in the authority of the Bible as the word of God, (2) the belief in the Deity of His Imperial Majesty (HIM) Emperor Haile Selassie I, and (3) the concomitant notion that HIM was the reincarnation of the reputed Jewish rabbi commonly known in the English-speaking world as Jesus Christ and who as certain schools of thought insist could be the only true bearer of the title "King of Kings and Lord of Lords", together with all of the other epithets attributed to Jesus in the Bible. Now, as everyone knows, the Founding Fathers of the Movement, including Leonard Howell, Archibald Dunkley, and Joseph Hibbert were adherents of Christianity before becoming proselytes of RASTAFARI. A similar observation could also be made of The Right Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey and HIM. Other early Rastafarian leaders like Ras Boanerges, who founded the Order of the Nyabinghi, Prince Emmanuel, who founded the Bobo Shanti Order, and Vernon Carrington, who founded the House of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, also had a Christian upbringing. Meanwhile, as the history of the development of social movements shows, every social organization derives its genesis as an offshoot of the antecedent institution with which its members were previously associated. The same is true in the case of Judaism and Christianity, Christianity and Islam, Zoroastrianism and Buddhism, and all of the other great social institutions which have been in existence for millenniums. As a fledgling social movement that is barely 90-plus years young, RASTAFARI is still in the process of shedding its bonds with Judeo-Christianity and asserting itself as an institution that is more than just a radicalized black version of Christianity. While a wide cross-section of Rastafarians continues to hold on to the teachings of the original leaders, a growing number of Bredrens and Sistrens, like General Thau Thau and this commenter, have shown their willingness to take up the mantle and take the Movement to the next philosophical level. Accordingly, the present crop of Rastafarians is hardly satisfied to settle for any type of dogmatic belief, rituals, or practices. To the contrary, today's Rastafarians are determined to ground the Philosophy of RASTAFARI in logic and verifiable knowledge, rather than blind faith in the Bible and Christian theology. Thus, if one were to seriously consider that one of the attributes of GOD is His OMNIPOTENCE and if, as is generally intimated by detractors of the Movement, HIM had to plead with the Member States of the United Nations (U.N.) for help in crushing the Italian invasion in 1935, the question of whether HIM truly satisfies the conditions to be regarded as a Deity must come to the fore. And so, before one could conclude that HIM is GOD, the concept of GOD and the attributes of GOD must be sufficiently enunciated. And any entity that fails to satisfy the necessary conditions must' of necessity be ruled out from the category. Even so, when one considers the origin of the CHRISTOLOGICAL DOCTRINE, the profound influence that Christianity had on the early formation of the Movement, and the fact that HIM had made it clear that he wanted to have nothing to do with the claim that he is God, the proper place of HIM in the Movement should not be regarded as an Achilles heel in the Philosophy of RASTAFARI. Accordingly, if RASTAFARI is to avoid being a static copycat organization, such kinds of philosophical exercises must be brought to bear on the notion of the pre-eminence of the Bible, on the notion of Haile Selassie as the Black Christ, etc., etc. For it is only by allowing the Movement to develop in a dynamic manner that it would be truly worth being recognized as a dialectical synthesis of enlightened BLACK Thinkers, and as a philosophical vehicle for articulating the COLLECTIVE experiences, hopes, and aspirations of the AFRICAN People; as envisaged by HIM, Prophet Marcus, and so many others. Moreover, it is only by so doing that the NEW WORLD ORDER that HIM had so wholeheartedly espoused and had so eloquently outlined in his speech to the U.N. in 1963 could be actualized.
Amen🙏 Jah lives💚💛❤
Facts!
Haile Selassie is not God. He was just a man. Idolatry is an abomination to God and breaks His first three commandments.
The first rule you claim in rasta is not true. Not all Rasta read bible so that kills that argument. The 2 foundational ideas in Rasta early days were 1 Haile Selassie is Divine and 2. Repatriation forward to Africa. I'm not sure were you got your ideas from
@@gooberpeas535 God is man
What's wrong with you. It is a fact that he's not in Tomb. So, not as Rasta call it. He is the King of kings, light of the World, Elect of God, Conquering Lion of Judah. Please do keep it straight. Blessed Love 💚💛❤️
Just as Jesus was born and lived on earth. Explain to us then Isiaah 9: 6-7. Tell us who this person is and when, and where this took place. Also, where is the throne spoken of in Acts 2:30, can be found.
Rastafari was a devout Christian & Defender of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Faith, he was a Descendant of King Solomon & Makeda, Queen of Sheba, making him both from the Line of David & the Line of Moses (Moses had an Ethiopian Wife in his youth as general of the Egyptian Army & Makeda's Royal Family came from that line) which means he was the Rightful Ruler, Custodian of God's Throne on Earth, holding the Scepter of Judah...He was a great Christian philosopher & a lover of life, liberty & human dignity, and should be treated as such by modern Christians, Jews & Rastas alike...and I'm not well-versed enough but I'd venture to say even Islam held the Throne of David in high esteem.
Jesus Christ is the ONLY holder of the throne of David. When He returns at Armageddon to destroy the Antichrist and your false religion, He will set up His kingdom in Jerusalem in order to fulfill the rest of the prophecies to Israel that were made during the Abrahamic and Davidic covenants. Rastafarianism will no longer exist.
Ras Tafari divinity got nothing to do what people think and feel. His Imperial Majesty is the Root of David, the Power of the Trinity, the Defender of the Faith and the governor of Peace. Rastafari is livity
Blasphemy. Jesus is the Only One called the Root of David. He is also called the Righteous Branch, the Branch of Jesse. He is the Rock of our salvation, the Alpha and Omega. He calls Himself the Almighty in Revelation 1:8.
Read Mathew 1 the lineage from abraham to CHRIST JESUS. Nothing about rastafari or haile selassie name in bible scriptures. Can't believe in something that is not written or mentioned in the bible. Wake up
Rastafarianism is a cult of personality. It was debunked by Haile Selassie himself. "In a 1967 recorded interview with the CBC, Haile Selassie denied his alleged divinity. In the interview Bill McNeil says: "there are millions of Christians throughout the world, your Imperial Majesty, who regard you as the reincarnation of Jesus Christ." Haile Selassie replied in his native language: "I have heard of that idea. I also met certain Rastafarians. I told them clearly that I am a man, that I am mortal, and that I will be replaced by the oncoming generation, and that they should never make a mistake in assuming or pretending that a human being is emanated from a deity."
The lord rain man
So sad That Haile Selassie wasnt mentioned because The truth will.offend the Fake Jews in Israel..Rastafari was from the Lineage of King solomon and King David of The real Israelites
He was mentioned 😂
Haile Selassie was an orthodox Christian. He’s not Jesus. He was a blessed devout follower of our Lord
Who geezus or zeus ,jes'us is one with Rasta mi Brenden, Alexander the great tricked many and Constantine Rasta is one with the universe selah,
Christ told us he will return has a new man and they will chant Hosanna and they did at HAILE SELASSIE THE 1st coronation he is the defender of the true Messianic/Christian faith one love JAH RASTAFARI ❤❤❤
So, basically Rasta is living what Jesus stood for..? That’s why Rasta’s more a “lifestyle” and not a religion itself… Which most religious people don’t live “the way”… and I don’t say that with one iota of “hate” against anyone, mind you. I’m just telling it like it is. Unfortunately most don’t fully grasp or integrate what Jesus stood for… They look to and worship Jesus outside themselves. Instead of walking the walk and honoring the God within, in others and all life, like Jesus means to reveal. He lead by example… “For, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do because I go to the Father.” In other words when you understand and believe in what Jesus was capable of, you can do it also - and more - because it all stems from the Almighty Creator, and we are likewise creators, made in God’s image… That’s my two cents for what it’s worth, makes sense to me.
GINO please respectfully accept this glimpse of the chosen and be still Amen and Amen Selah

Christendom and Western Civilization's imprint on the world is so dark, and disturbing. The legacies and remnants still withstand to this day. Particularly in non-white communities. The fetal alcohol syndrome, the unemployment, all the addictions, the mass incarceration, the poverty, and so much more. Not only were cultures and communities disintegrated and destroyed, but so too were natural ecosystems.
Because they were Christians in name and not in deed.
So did Muslims you forgetting they invaded western countries a long time ago burning buildings raping women etc ..
Like there is not enough hatred and racism in the world hey! What are you going to bring to the new world? black supremacy? Hitler style? kill all whites for revenge? Like they are all guilty right! they are NO VICTIMS in this world ok. Free Will!!!!!!!! You need to meditate more on TODAY and what YOU can do for the good of ALL. God has no color because HE has all the colors! Get it? Black supremacy is spiritual! You shine because you understand suffering! Don't forget all the others who also suffered! There are so many, so you need knowledge to find out. It's a long, long story with heroes and villains. Evil comes in all colors!
It's not believers in Christ who cause the ills, it is the ones that deny him, and murder. Reject the roman and the rabbi

Ras means Prince or Duke in Amharic a semitic language spoken in Ethiopian, Tafari is Haile Selassie name. Tafari Makonnen So Ras Tafari is Prince Tafari Also Jah is Yahwah....no J in the Aramaic/Amharic language Praise Yah=Praise Yahwah HalleluYah No name Jesus Christ that's greek/roman wrong interpretation... Yahshua means salvation/saviour. Yahshua HaMessiach a hebrew name HaMessiach the anointed one. He will come again. Dietary laws come from De.va.rim and Va.ik.ra = Leviticus and Deuteronomy = eat as in E'den. Fruit from the trees and food from the ground.

@@screwstontxrippimpcripdjsc3630 The phrase "Father" and "son of God" had never been taken to be literal by Hebrew and Aramaic speaking people. The worship of a Triune-God, a demigod or God incarnate, was completely foreign to Hebrew and Aramaic speaking Jews like Moses, Jesus, and their families. Literal sons of God, God incarnates, Trinities, demigods, death-and-rebirth god archetype, dying-and-rising god archetype and the resurrected-god archetype - are all pagan constructs foreign to the religious beliefs of Monotheist Jews like Jesus, Mary, Zechariah, John the Baptist, James the Just (ie, the family of Jesus and their Monotheist followers).

Also early israelite religion did believe in the sons of God, the elohim. Only much later on where they reduced to angels (messengers.) Judaism grew out of Canaanite religion. The 70 sons of Baal became the sons of Yahweh. Christianity started out from its inception as monotheistic.

I think it was story is going to be told it should be told by the true descendants of that particular culture not the oppressive class. That really disrespects the nationality the culture the religion obviously. When you learn about history and you're learning about different countries and different cultures it is inappropriate for somebody that has never been a part of that culture never been brought up in the grassroots of it to even tell the historical facts in my opinion 👀🥴🤦🏻♀️📽️📺
That's why the people he's interviewing are doing most of the talking.
Sounds like you really wanna spead God's love and truth to all people. OH WAIT, no it doesn't, it sounds like you're gatekeeping! RASTAFARI MY ASS!

your belief is about division and therefore of the devil, that's why they use it to enslave and condemn others. Rasta is about unity and oneness and connection with the divine.
Horus was a God. Hercules was a God. Mithra was a God. Jesus was a God. Haile Selassie was a God. Lol. *None of the above is, or was, God,* *the son of God, a demigod or God incarnate.* Worship The Creator, not the created.
It amazes me how the oppressor class always love the hide their face come into anything that deals with African Americans whether they're in a Caribbean but at the same time you won't even accept that Jesus was not Anglo-Saxon the pictures that we see in church is inaccurate let's start off in that so before you judge another man and their culture if you don't like it just don't listen to it that's all you have to do.

THE LORD GOD JESUS IS NOT A RELIGION
Yeah, in reality, the idea that Jesus is God or 1/3 of God, is a doctrine created by men. Men who never knew Jesus, never knew his mother, or his brother, or his aunty, or his uncle, or his cousin, or his actual Aramaic-speaking disciples. These were all strict Monotheistic Jews, who never ascribed to the man-made doctrines, etc, that came centuries later. The idea that Jesus is God or 1/3 of God, is a doctrine, created by men.
What is your definition of "religion"? (Before you say "a relationship", pretty much *all* religions are about a relationship.)
Yes it issss there’s rules so it is a religion
A relationship is not a dynamic where one person knows more than the other and demand you to live a certain way.. that’s not a healthy relationship.. it’s definitely a religion

WHAT A LOAD OF BULL
As a Jamaican myself I grew up in the Catholic faith, but have deep respect for the Rastafarian religion. I would not agree to call their doctrine vs, and they are classified as an Abrahams religion just like Judaism, Christianity and Islam. They live very healthy life style, very religious and spiritual, environmentalist, inspire reggae, one of the most influential genre of music ever, preach peace and love, and of course, wear dread locks, which has become a fashion in all walks of life. So yeah, I respect them for what they bring to the world. Jah bless!!
@@kurzeful don't bother she just another sick colonizer supremacist who wants to force their way on everybody else. Look at how they use religion to oppress people.
@@kurzeful I'm from South Africa, I have many Rasta friends. Grew up on Bob Marley and other musical struggle icons from various genres and backgrounds (who my parents listened to during their years of struggle against the Apartheid regime). To me, I see Rastafarians as the 20th century equivalent of 21st century "Hebrew Israelites". Much like the 20th century "Nation of Islam" and "Black Muslims" as well, who I feel fall into the same category. These were sociocultural and sociopolitical reactionary movements formed during their respective eras in history. The children of the diaspora, confused, misguided, oppressed, and faced with a serious identity crisis, began creating their own. Afrocentric subcultures and/or countercultures is what it is, and what it was.
@John Doe III nice to meet you, my African brother. We Jamaicans have mad respect for your beautiful country, its people and its leader, Nelson Mandela. Jamaica was the first country to sanction South Africa during the apartheid era and stood up for Mandela at the UN. We know the struggles, and reggae music was created to highlight and showcase the continued fight for freedom and emancipation of our African brothers and sisters. Bob Marley was a prophet, and he loved Africa, its people, and Its History. Glad you listened to him during your struggles; his songs are inspirational today as it was back then.
@@kurzeful Stop sugarcoating they are DECEIVED
Horus was a God. Hercules was a God. Mithra was a God. Jesus was a God. Haile Selassie was a God. Lol. *None of the above is, or was, God,* *the son of God, a demigod or God incarnate.* Worship The Creator, not the created.
There is more than one creator, according to the bible
Ye are gods . Hallelujah🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@jccjjccj3305 there is the eternal one, the creator of all things.
@@alextodd4435 let us make man in our own image. There is more than one creator of all things
@@jccjjccj3305 there is THE ETERNAL ONE, who is love, who created all things, and those things are also, like you and I, capable of creation.
To our mother father source creator there is no religions, another thing saying love or unconditional love only comes when you respect and love all life , you killing and eating the animals that is not unconditional love for all life ,I will only say this once,all humanity have a soul however not all humanity have a soul connection, eating meat is a low frequency activity this alone shows clearly that you got no connection to you soul, eating meat is cannibalism eny meat what soever, you lot don't have body disciplines ,then you don't know that it's a inside job and not a outside job,Jesus is enki sky god,Christ mean consciousness in in all humanity,to say Selassie is the creator it proved how far away you are,there is only one man born birth name Rastafari he can show that on is birth certificate can any of you dread birth certificate shows you are Rastafari no,then you need to do some research on you self because if you say Selassie is the son of God as you call the name of source in your language terms who's son and who's daughters are you lot ,am waiting for the answer.
There is no connection. One is false the other isn't
So....... Jesus = a true demigod, Selassie = a false demigod?
@@johndoeiii9767 Jesus is not a demigod. Jesus is God almigthy, before the heavens and the earth were formed Jesus was there. Selassie is a man, selassie himself said he is mortal.
@@solideogloria2006 psalms 87 kjv please read
@@MrAdrianjohnson psalms 87 has nothing to do with salassie you misinterpret scripture. Sela does not mean selassie. When Jesus comes again He will descend with millions of angels and will destroy the earth with the brightness of His comming and the elements shall melt. Everyone will see Jesus in the air when He comes again in His body. The wicked will be destroyed and the righteous dead will be resurrected. The righteous that are alive will meet the Lord in the air to recieve a new body liken unto His glorious body. This did not selassie. Selassie was a man, selassie himself said he is mortal. You cant claim someone is God when they themselves said they are not immortal. Matthew24:23¶Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25Behold, I have told you before. 26¶Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. (Mark 13:24-27; Luke 21:25-28 ) 29¶Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
