 Posted: 05 Oct 2004 23:46 Post subject: "You Are One In a
Million..." Mark Mohr |
 |
|
I thought that this was an
interesting discussion that I came across. As a point of
clarification, I am not Ras Aaron. That is another person blessed
with the same powerful name 
http://groups.msn.com/twelvetribesliveup/general.msnw?action=get_message&mview=0&ID_Message=13339&DDir=1
This gentleman is commenting on an email response into his
inquiries about Mohr's statements concerning RasTafari that possess
faith in the Messiah. Mohr states that they are "one in a million."
Where does this leave Ras B? Where does this leave me and others @
the Twelve Tribes Live Up site? Where does this leave thousands of
members of TTOI?
Perhaps Mr. Mohr needs more research into
RasTafari.

Greetings to all in the name of Yeshuah!
This may be one Important topic, and InI think we
should all do our best to let it be known. I recently got a
magazine from an Assembly of God Pentecostal Church that had
an article/interview with Christafari's Mark Mohr, and InI
also recently got an e-mail from Lion Of Zion etertainment
which is Christafari's Recording Label. Anyway both had
something about Rastafari in them, the magazine which is
called OnCourse, said some things trashing the Rasatafarian
Faith, it wasnt a big section but it shouldnt have been there
without Mark doing some research first, the e-mail I recieved
recently had a statement by more that said "And God saved the
best show for last, for it was in Amsterdam where even rastas
held up their hands after the sinners prayer!" Anyway I took
it upon I to send him an e-mail at the Lion Of Zion web site
http://www.lionofzion.com/ (F.A.Q., contact
us) to tell him that as a Rasta of the 12 Tribes of Israel
origin that InI and most others that InI know/reason with do
believe in Christ and not as Selassie but as Christ himself
and explained that he should know these things before he says
that kind of thing to anyone. I got a response from him that
stated:
"Ras, forgive me for misrepresenting your faith.
You are one of a million rastas that I have met that does not
worship Haile Selassie as God or Christ. Respect. When I
referred to Rastas, I was speaking of those who follow AND
worship Rastafari.
Mark Mohr"
InI have Raspect for
that man to send me this e-mail, but if he believe that(That
InI am 1 in a million) then InI need to do something because
what InI believe is being distorted and falsified. Anyway InI
urge all to spread the knowledge of our faith in anyway we can
so that the truth be known. Much Love and Raspect!!
OneLove,
Ras Aaron

Maybe
someone could verify this information or statement for
me.

Did you read closely the quote by
Mark in the quote that you gave? He said that it was out of the ones
that Mark has met, and that he had respect for the faith of the one
that sent him the email.

Actually, it looks like Mohr said
"one of a million": "You are
one of a million rastas that I have met that does not worship Haile
Selassie as God or Christ." If that's what he said, it means he's
met at least a million Rastas who do not believe Emperor Haile
Selassie is God. And if he's really met a million Rastas who do
not believe Selassie is Jah,
then why would he make the FAQ sound like they all did?

In this modern age of internet,
books, multimedia, etc. there is no excuse for his uninformed stance
on this subject. Like I said elsewhere, Ras B has become the
punching bag. If at any time Mark lacks some information about
RasTafari believers in Messiah, call Ras B. They work on the same
ministry for crying out loud. Do they talk/communicate with one
another? Surely they do. Again, Mark is without excuse. He's in CA.
Go down to the 12 Tribes HQ and reason. Get on line and reason.

You are seriously stating Mark met millions
of Rastas?
Ofcourse that is not the case.
As I say
repeatly, the definition of Rasta according to LOZ is still utilized
as driving force behind the philosophy that we come to know as
Christafarianism.

I didn't say that he has met
millions. You have ignored the quote that you added to your message.
It is entirely obvious that the word millions in this
statement is a figure of speach. Strain at the gnats.
For a
person that has toured much of the world it is not likely that he
has not met thousands of Rasta. 15 trips to Jamaica, living in
Trinidad, and making tours through out the US and and Canada and
Europe. I can safely say that he has met a few Rastas... so you are
set fully on the figure of speach to to prove him wrong? You should
run for President of the US. You have a great campaign
going....

I know that LOZ denies the faith
of people like me (because they say people like me are deceivers)
and that one of their arguments is that people like me are "one in a
million" so people like me can be ignored as they do not form a
suitable position for the justification of the activities of LOZ.
Not I, but Mark Mohr should run for president. For he is
only interested in the majorities.
Or what he perceives as
majority.

But
the actual letter says "one of a million," not "one in
a million." And that means something very
different.
