Why Use the Holy Scriptures?

Selamta,

When coming into RasTafari, one learns the truth about the Holy BIble, The King James Version and all the others, and the amount of folly that they were popularized upon. Many RasTafari might argue that there is no use for it, because it was used as a weapon to enslave Afrika. But I and I JAH and King Qedamawi Haile Sellassie, spoke on its importance, and His love and appreciation for Scripture. The truth is that Sighting up His Imperial Majesty, is aided by the Scripture, where many prophecies of HIM the Kristos King, are foretold.

Here's a little compilation on the importance of Holy Scripture, using the Scripture itself:

Why use the Hola Ible, or any Scriptures of the Hebrews? Because the Ible is a Book of JAH’s Way, Truth, Right, Love, Promise, Life and Wisdom. It tells us about JAH and how we can depend on HIM and His word. It tells us about ourselves, our nature, our error, integrity and perseverance. It gives us options, rebuke and solutions, it clears a path for us to move forward and escape destruction or tribulation. The Ible tells us about our salvation, the Kristos and the Covenant with God’s Children. There is nothing that humanity faces that the Holy Word cannot address.

The Ible, based on these definitions is:


A Dependable Authority – 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 1 Peter 1:23-25; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Hebrew 4:12-13; Psalm 33:8-9,11-12; 119:89; Matthew 24:35; Mark 13:31; Isaiah 40:8


A Way to Succeed – Acts 20:32; 2 Peter 1:3-4; Psalm 37:34


A Guide for Life – Psalm 119:9,11,24,105; 19:8-11; 37:23-24; 23:3; 32:8; Joshua 1:8; John 8:31-32; Isaiah 30:21; Luke 1:68-77; Proverbs 6:20-23; 4:20-22; 8


A Source of Protection and Spiritual Rejuvenation – Daniel 10:19; Isaiah 41:10; Psalm 119:28; 18:1-3; Ephesians 6:11-17; Colossians 1:11-12


I hope you fulljoy this summary, and that it gives some Iritual satisfaction and rejuvenation indeed. It is a good Sabbath reading to carry forth as well.
