INTRODUCTION |
Thank
you for your interest in our investigation
into "CHRISTAFARI™". In this
introduction, we would like to share our
initial reason and purpose of this research
project. A project which has been
concluded with the release of a 200+ page
free e-book called "The Mystery Of
Christafarianism" in july 2005.
Most people
know Christafari as a so-called "Gospel
Reggae Band". But Christafari is much
more then just a group of Christians playing
Reggae Music. There is a whole organization
around the band, and especially it's
founder: "Pastor Mark" Mohr. There
is also a whole philosophy that comes with
Christafari: Christafarianism. And,
as if that was not enough allready, there is
now even a Cult of Christafarians.
|
TO
WHOM THIS CONCERNS |
Everybody
who loves the Truth and who loves Reggae
Music too, will find some very relevant
information in this "CRC Check".
Especially those who know themselves part of
(or connected to) Christianity and/or the
movement of Rastafari, will sooner or later
be confronted with Christafarianism.
|
BASIC
CRITIQUE |
CHRISTAFARI™
uses the Name of the Creator in vain in
order to generate economic activety in an
industry blasphemically called "The
Christian Industry".
CHRISTAFARI™
preaches a different Gospel and a different
Christ in order to generate economic
activety in an industry blasphemically
called "The Christian Industry".
CHRISTAFARI™
practices a number of other abominable
activities in order to generate economic
activety in an industry blasphemically
called "The Christian Industry".
CHRISTAFARI™
tries to create a global following or
fan-base (cult) in order to generate
economic activety in an industry
blasphemically called "The Christian
Industry".

CHRISTAFARIANISM |
Christafarianism
is the name that Christafari gave to "The
Culture We Created With Our Fan Base".
It is a charicature of some outward aspects
of Rastafari Culture. These aspects are
stripped from their original spiritual
meaning, and subsequently "transformed"
to fit in "The Christian
Industry".
Christafarianism
is defended by Christafari with a variety of
"bible teachings" and
neo-evangelical traditions as ultimate
justification. This argumentation is the
philosophical foundation for
Christafarianism and therefore an integral
aspect of it.
|
CHRISTAFARIANS |
Christafari
has used the name "Christafarians"
to adress and describe several groups of
people, who do not neccesarily have to have
much in common other then an adherance to
Christafarianism or worship of Christafari. In
fact, Christafari has blatantly lied about
it as you will see/hear.
Here are a
few of Christafari's own descriptions of
"Christafarians" (links open in
new window):
|
QUOTE
1: |
"missionaries,
fellow 'Christafarians', people who believe
in our vision and our mission statement."
|
|
|
QUOTE
2: |
"Thank
you for inquiring about "The
Christafarians" the official fan club
of Christafari. As a member you will receive
the following..."
|
|
|
QUOTE
3: |
"My
Bible Study Leader Said "So You're No
Longer A Rastafarian, Now You're A
Christafarian" And That Was The Birth
Of Christafari"
|
|
|
QUOTE
4: |
Dec.
21, 2002 - "Greetings fellow
Christafarians!
(...) You may send your love gift to our
missions organization..."
|
|
|
QUOTE
5: |
"First
off, I (Mark Mohr/CHRISTAFARI) am sorry that
he (Messian Dread/CRC) has grossly
misunderstood our use of the word "Christafarian".
It is not a belief system or sect of faith.
The word has only personally been used a few
times to my knowledge. First, it was the
original name of my band Christafari.
Second, it has been used in past Lion of
Zion updates in reference to our listeners.
It was never used to describe a certain
belief system. When I think of the term
"Christafarian," I think about a
supporter or admirer of our music. Not a
convert that has been conformed to my ways."

THE
WARNING |
The
CRC sounds a warning to the body of Kristos.
Christafari, Christafarianism, and the
Christafarians are an abomination to the
Truth of Yesus Kristos. They have as much to
do with true Christianity as they have
something to do with true Rastafari.
|
"ALL
THINGS TO ALL MEN" |
Our
investigation into Christafarianism has led
us to establish that the chief motto and
justification is a perversion of a Bible
verse, summarized by Christafari as
"All Things To All Men". Presented
as a description of their (quote)
"Mission Approach" in order to
"convert" people to
Christafarianism, this methodology can
better be described as "Wolves In
Sheep's Clothing".
Christafari
admits and boasts how they are imitating
what they perceive as Rastafari Culture in
order to "win the Rastas". This is
a methodology taught at BIOLA UNIVERSITY,
where Christafari Mark Mohr claims to have
learned this. BIOLA calls it the
"IMITATOR METHOD".
Our
research has led us to establish how
Christafari is equally imitating what they
perceive as Christianity in order to (quote)
"plug the gap in the Christian
Industry". They do so by presenting
themselves as some kind of "missionairies"
who "preach the gospel to the
lost" where in reality they are only
(quote) "creating our own culture with
our fan base" in this very same (quote)
"Christian Industry".
