I really appreciate this article by Sis Judy who I had the privilage of meeting as a member of the Twelve Tribes of Israel in Kingston.
I was said that during Bob illness and treatment for cancer he was reading his Bible a lot and even requested that the leader of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church to baptise him before he died.His wish was granted and because of this action the Ethiopian Orthodox Church was able to take part in the funeral service at the National Arena.There is no other name given among men that you can be saved but by the name of Jesus Christ.

Thanks for sharing your testimony we are being blessed. If Bob Marley had the oppurtunity to share his tesimony and sing gospel he surley would of had a harvest of souls.

I was searching for info about Judy and found this marvelous article. Reason being in another article regarding her personal experience of being drawn to Jesus, she mentioned Andrew Lawrence, a friend and a pastor with Bible Teachers International Ministries in Jamaica. He happened to be a longtime friend of my brother's. Tragically, this humble man who lived serving others for Jesus was martryed in his home last Saturday night after preaching a service that evening. He layed his life down for others. It was his desire that warring factions in Trenchtown come together and live in peace through love. An article in Jamaica Gleaner yesterday said that the slain preacher left a legacy and that what he wanted to see happen did on Sunday, the enemies came together at church because of their common respect for this servant. Hopefully, Judy will be there among them offering light and hope to the people. I am in awe of what I found out about her and how Andrew was a significant influence in her changed life.
I also went to J paul's my space, it is nice, brother. Hope you can contact her.

I went on 2 tours with Judy Mowatt in1985 and those were the best of times in my life. I have not seen her since, but i do look forward to seeing her again. go to www.myspace.com/tijoule to see the pics from that tour. When i went to Jamaica in 1984. It was Judy taht took me to one of the most beautiful places ive been in my life, The Mami River. I will never forget it.

it takes courage to believe that we were created in his image. those who have chosen him let them lift his name the way he lifted the cross for us. Sister Judy thanx alot for taking up a new start in life.God bless

I think it's absolutely amazing! I've been reading about him most of the day today at work because I listen to his music daily. A lot of people have different belief systems and a lot of people believe that we just need to be "good" but the problem is that we all have different standards of what good is. A bank robber may think he's good because he doesn't kill someone. We can always say we are good because there is always something worse to compare our actions to. I am leaning towards believing Bob Marley did come to Jesus before he died. Everything I've read supports this and it makes perfect sense. The church he got baptized in was a church known to try to help rhasta's learn about Jesus. It wasn't just any church, it was specifically intended for the same reason Marley came to it. What an amazing testimony! I've read that his last words to Ziggy Marley were something like "Don't live for money". Not a direct quote but something like that.

If Marley said JESUS OR SELASSIE?
In marleys song 'so much things to say' he sings: i'll never forget noway..they crucify jesus christ...
Bob would never ignore christ he sang it...bob never sang anything he did not mean..simple.
He also said in an interview that selassie i is the king of kings on earth!!!
And that christ said he will return within 2000 yrs with a new name...some would say rastafari...
Haile selassie born of the line of solomon and david..this a reality...familly tree does'nt lie...you cant make something like that up!
decent is decent....
Haile selassie is a christian king...
most important thing is that selassie represents good in flesh.
Some say :even selassie did not except his status..but in reality the second he took the title and was corinated on king david's throne ..he displayed without words his status...selassie said:untill the colour of a mans skin is of no more signifigance than the colour of his eyes..there will be war!!!only a special man could say that....
72 different nations..kings,dukes,delegates were pressent at his corination why??even bowed to him...kings dont usually do that...im not guessing,this actualy took place...
on earth...Bob would be disapointed to know that folk are guessing and chatting about if he called selassie or jesus...bob called the one that gave him the inspiration to inspire and create great music....
bob knew and knows where his inspiration comes from....that is the important thing.
why an ephiopian king from ephiopia? why not?
the important thing is being a good human..thats my religion...if you like...?
even though its my way of life and not a religion...
guidance and protection...

This is what it is all about. When it all boils down...it is not about your race, religion or color of your eyes, it is all about how you have served your time on earth. Have you been good to others, have you withheld that which you had in your possession, that your brother asked your for?...what works have your performed? This is what judgment will be based on. There are nations upon nations who are misled and raised to praise other Gods, even golden calf's, but no matter who you serve, it is all about what you have done.
I as a Rastafarian, can never deny His Majesty's works. Jesus Christ came to baptize by water, but His Majesty baptize by fire. When His Majesty sat on the throne and was coroneted, there was no explanation necessary, it is what it is....It is what Isaiah, Elijah and all the prophets before us prophesied. The same prophets that prophesied the coming of Jesus Christ. Rev. 5 versus 5 is the truth. There is no man on earth to ever hold that title from the beginning of time until now.
Haile Selassie dealt with that interview as Jesus Christ dealt with the scribes and Pharisees. Ethiopia, the birthplace of civilization is the oldest Christian Kingdom in the world, the only place that Black people, the first fruits has ever owned that has never been conquered.
Each person must read with understanding. Use your resources to discover truth, do not be guided with what you have been told by others.
EVERY MAN MUST SIT UNDER THEIR OWN FIG TREE AND WORSHIP HIS OWN GOD.
