WWW, September 2007 - The Rhythm of Reggae is more or less the heartbeat of my soul. I eat, drink and breath Reggae Music while giving thanks and praises to the Creator for JAH Music every time I do so.
Some people think that I'm doing the wrong thing, there. I beg to differ, Sir!
Without any apology, I can say that the Most High Jah used Reggae Music to call me to Him and become His son through the fulfilled Works of Yesus Kristos.
Even though I'm the son of a preacher man, even though my mother separated me for Jah before I was born, even though I grew up in the Pentecostal Church and heard the Bible from a very young age, that is.
The message that I got as a young child, was that there was a "God" and he was called "Jesus Christ". This "God" created a "Judeo-Christian Civilization" and demanded total obedience to that "Civilization": a Church-And-State System that can be traced back to the Tower of Babel somewhere in the Middle East.
It didn't matter whether I was in school or at the church, I would hear the same message. I would be surrounded by the same kind of children, even though they themselves would not think so. And they too would tell me the exact same message.
To me, the message was clear: OBEY and KONFORM to this World System!
OBEY and KONFORM to this World System, even when you are unable to.
OBEY and KONFORM to this World System, even though it is not explained to you why.
OBEY and KONFORM to this World System, even though you know for sure that you are told lies and are being downpressed.
OBEY and KONFORM to this World System, or... face the Consequences!
In my case, I was unable to OBEY and KONFORM, even when I wanted to. I just wasn't born that way, and obviously this had something to do with the fact that my mother separated me for Jah before I was born.
So I had to face the consequences. I was unable to bow down for the God of This World Order that they called Jesus Christ and I would feel it bigtime. In my ignorance I turned to what I thought was the enemy of that god, a guy called Satan.
I was unable to see, that the "Jesus Christ" who is the god of this World Order, isn't the Divine Saviour at all! I was unable to see, that the god of this World Order was really Satan and my rebellion only brought me into a form of slavery that was even worse: demonic possession.
All of this started when I was really young, like 4 years old or even earlier than that. While the demons that possessed me "taught" me their lies and gave me their "gifts", while the System and their workers would traumatize me with a wide variety of methods, I developed a strong hate against what I thought was "God".
I was traumatized so much by the propaganda and abuse, that I couldn't stand the Bible, or even the word "Jesus". I hated the one who was responsible for creating such a system and I thought his name was "Jesus Christ".
Until JAH revealed Himself to me and everything began to make so much sense.
It started, when I heard Reggae Music for the first time. I was about 15, 16 years old and I was visiting a place. Someone played a track called "Five Nights of Bleeding", by UK based DUB Poet Linton Kwesie Johnson.
The deep rhythm of the drum and bass was so familiar to me, it was like a reunion with a long lost friend. It was the heart beat of the heart with which I knew myself to be created.
I didn't understand much of the lyrics, but I knew I found the music that I was created for. Or at least, this was how this seemed and still seems to me. The music was not created for me, but I was created for the music. The music was the same thing that kept me alive, I simply knew that.
Little by little, I began to understand the lyrics of much of the music. Linton Kwesie Johnson himself is an atheist, but there is a lot of Reggae Music that has words about the Creator, and even words from the Creator as many tunes are almost complete Bible Lyrics on a heavy drum and bassline.
I began to hear the call of JAH RASTAFARI. I found out, that JAH RASTAFARI was the CREATOR, and that HE was very much opposed to the World System. In fact, the World System is an opposition to the Creator!
The message of the Movement of Rastafari became known through Reggae Music and if there is one thing that everyone must overstand about that Movement in my opinion, it must be that Rastafari clearly identifies the god of this world order as a false Christ.
Rastafari identifies this so-called "Judeo-Christian Civilization" as nothing else but Mystery Babylon, the evil Queendom of Lucifer.
Within Reggae Music, obviously there is a lot of Babylon too. Of course! But it cannot be denied that because of the fact that the Movement of Rastafari has been so influential to Reggae Music, it is completely accepted to sing praises to the Creator wherever you go within Reggae Music.
It goes even further. Even artists who are know to sing usually about sexual themes, slackness, will have at least a few songs in their repertoire which will give praise to the Creator.
I personally know artists who boldly say in my face that they don't believe a single word about JAH and Babylon and so on, but that they will use the words just because it sounds so nice in Reggae Music.
What is that music, which will even make the atheists sing praises to JAH?
Personally, I see in this some kind of pre-fulfillment of the fact that one day Every Knee Will Bow and Every Tongue Confess.
Personally, I see in this some kind of sign that Reggae Music indeed is JAH Music, even though there are pirates and parasites who try to run away with the music and make themselves some name or thing and become millionaires...
Reggae Music has been used by the Almighty, to set me free. The power of the drum and bass, and the Name of JAH Rastafari with which the Creator introduced Himself to me, I am connected with this in my body soul and spirit and I cannot explain it in any other way than that I was -among other things of course- created to play Reggae Music.
This is why I love Reggae Music. This is why I cannot stop loving Reggae Music. For Reggae Music is my heartbeat and if I would stop loving my heartbeat I would not longer live.
I have seen many people become conscious just by listening to Reggae Music. I see them being introduced to the truth about Babylon, about JAH, through the Music. Which is another reason why I can't -and won't- stop loving Reggae Music.
And playing it. And promoting it!
But there are also people who don't love Reggae Music at all.
Without being bothered by any knowledge about Rastafari or Reggae Music, they will follow the party line and look to Rastafari as a form of Jamaican Hippie-ness and Reggae as some kind of Satanic Music just like Heavy Metal.
Self-proclaimed "pastors" like Christafari's Mark Mohr make a good living from that party line, even. From their base close to Hollywood California, they claim all kinds of things about Reggae Music which will make people buy their own form of "sanctified Reggae", the only form of Reggae allowed for "Christian Consumption".
It is a well-known fact that the CIA was very, very interested in Bob Marley and in Reggae Music in general as they feared how these Sounds of Freedom would be ringing in the ears of too many sufferers.
There are many more antichrist movements and ideology who will oppose Reggae Music in someway. The homosexual militants, for example, who don't want any critique on their not-so-gay homosexual lifestyle, are well-known to hate Reggae Music and will lobby against every Reggae Artist who dares to speak out against homosexuality.
Yes, the Party-Line of the Illuminati, the Party-Line of Babylon System, is very much against Reggae Music. When you ask them why, they will tell you exactly about the "dangers" of Reggae Music.
But I don't see any danger in these "dangers" at all!
I see no danger in Consciousness at all! I see no danger in the heavy drum and basslines at all, especially not because I know Who created me and I know I am -partly- created to play Reggae Music!
One Love, Give Thanks,
