one cannot serve two masters at the same time. One cannot be a traditionalist and at the same time, a christian.

Food for thought.

The Yoruba people are Biblical Israelites, and Oduduwa is the banner ensign under which the dispersed of Judah arrived from the East, the name/title Oduduwa is another name for the dispersed of Judah. As with Israel, so is Oduduwa also depicted as a woman.

The Ooni is right, God has promised that He will gather His children back to Himself, God is only using the Ooni to project the ancient prophecy and promise that He will regather His people when the time comes. The time has come. grin

Oduduwa is not African, Oduduwa is Asiatic, from the area now called the Middle East. Oduduwa came from the East.

[b]Jeremiah 31:2
Thus saith the LORD, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.

Ezekiel 39:25
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;
26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28 Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Zephaniah 3:10
From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.[/b]

Some people are so naïve. What is the big deal if Ooni said Jesus is his father. I was born and breed in Ife and ife is more or less a Christian environment not as some of the aliens view it. We have churches in every nook and crannies of Ile-Ife. The very king is a Christian right from the infant and it will be disastrous of him to forsake what u believe knowing fully well that the throne is temporary and heaven is permanent. God bless Ooni. He shall live long on the throne. Ade a pe Lori oba to mo Jesu.
lets leave the spiritual aspect aside for nw,this guy has no biological(dna) linkage with jesus,nd if he's truely a son of the soil(ile ife),its very likely he still share with he some dna with his ancestors..

This what I will call long throat. You people don't know what Obaship entails.

I am Yoruba Prince and Christian, due to my Christian background I have never dreamt to be an Oba. Any truly born again Christian does not have any business being on that throne except for "long throat".

Read some of my old posts above.

I know what you mean, but God is God. He is supreme. He can decide to appoint anyone in order to change the course of doing things. He does as He wills. Many of the so called yoruba or African traditions are of the devil, and as such cannot endure the test of time as you think.

We need God intervention in our society

Exactly what I meant by "long throat". Christians are not to dine with the "devil" but to resist the "devil". So continued stay of a born again Oba on the throne is greed. You can't belong to two religions (traditional and Christian) at the same time. Equally, a born again Prince (and true Moslem Prince) has no business aspiring to ascend the throne in Yorubaland.

When was the last time a Jew, a Jewish Rabbi, a custodian of Hebrew culture and religion, acknowledged the lordship of your Christ?

What does the Ooni Of Ife , a Yoruba sovereign, an African, know about Hebrew mythology that the Rabbi's don't know yet ?

What privileged information does he have that the Jewish Rabbi's do not know about the myth of Christ ? undecided

I can honestly say that I too have long questioned this dynamic. My father was an Ife Prince that grew up in the palace with Oba Aderemi. Asking him about this duality I was uncomfortable with he said "well everyone calls themselves Christian but when shit hits the fan, we all go back to the source of the Yoruba faith."

I still get much of the angst in here. But I find it easier to absorb believing we are one of the lost tribes talked about in the bible.

the Ooni has just embarrassed himself, take for instance the african descendants wishing to return to their roots whom he met with the aim of building bonds with them will be so displeased and disgusted

he needs to get his act right and stop insulting the yoruba tradition

listen, this is very wrong for any Prince hoping to contest to be Oba anywhere in yorubaland. like I said in a previous thread, it is better for the pride of the Yoruba race that we don't have Obas than to have Obas that are really slaves(mentally), bringing disrepute to the Yoruba identity.

There are several similarities from circumcision, the wearing of white to certain rituals.

Like I said....I'm not going to say you're wrong for feeling the way you do. I also question and still question how we gravitate to a faith not completely native to us. As an Ife Prince myself, I understand where you're coming from about that duality.
