WordSound&Power - Haile Selassie Quote
Question:
I was wondering if you could give me the reference for the documentation of Haile Selassie's quote?
Answer:
I actually got this recording from Judy Mowatt (formerly of the I-Threes). This tape ended up leading her to Christ. It is a powerful recording! If you are into this, then you would love the other quotes of Selassie on our "DUB Sound&Power" album. Selassie gives all of the reasons why he follows Jesus Christ. As for the reference for the documentation of Haile Selassie's quote on WordSound&Power, you must have our cassette version of the album (I think that our CD Version has the info on it). Here is the info:
Project 67 presents: "The Conquering Lion of Judah" A Profile Study of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie the First, Emperor of Ethiopia. In Canada 1967 aboard the Royal train. (The first personal radio interview that Haile
Selassie ever granted)
Question by Bill Mc Neil: "there are millions of Christians throughout the world, your Imperial Majesty, who regard you as the reincarnation of Jesus Christ.
Selassie's answer: "I had 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 would be replaced by the oncoming generation, and that they should never make a mistake in assuming or pretending that the human being is emanated from a deity.'"
