JESUS CHRIST is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. ~ (Revelation 5:5)

A lion is known for his strength, fearful disposition, and the thundering sound of his roar. He is thus recognized as the king of the forest. Jesus had the characteristics of a lamb when He came the first time, but will return as a lion the second time, with kingly authority, power, and fierce judgment.  


Jesus has the divine nature of the Father, and can be compared to a lion for His great strength, the thundering sound of His voice (Psalm 68:33), and His fury against the wicked. This title particularly symbolizes Him as a Strong Fighter against the enemy, and highlights His human lineage (Hebrews 7:14).

THE MISCONCEPTION: 
A spiritual movement called the 'Rastafarians Movement' believes The LION OF JUDAH represents Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, crowned November 2nd 1930 with the titles 'KING OF KINGS', 'LORD OF LORDS', Conquering 'LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH' mentioned in the Book of Revelation (because he is a direct descendant of the Israelite Tribe of Judah through the lineage of King David and Solomon), 'ELECT OF GOD AND POWER OF THE TRINITY', and the 'MESSIAH'. Millions of souls are being led along the path of destruction because of the false 'Rasta Doctrine' – the same doctrine that the popular late musician Bob Nesta Marley lived by, and attempted to propagate worldwide. Gladly, He surrendered to Jesus shortly before He died.

Let it be known that there is no human being worthy of these titles, and that none should be reverenced as such (Exodus 20:4). JESUS CHRIST IS THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH mentioned in the Book of Revelation, the only Way to the Father, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6). He is the One who paid the penalty for our sins (2 Corinthians 5:21, Romans 4:25)- a sacrifice no human being has ever made, and will never be capable of making. May we be guided in Jesus' Name, Amen.
