The Prophet, Patriarch & Papas

The Right Honourable & Excellent Marcus Moziah Garvey.  

Marcus Mosiah Garvey Jr. was born on the Caribbean Island of Jamaica on the 17 August 1887 & ascended on 10 June 1940. Marcus is credited as being the most influential individual in the struggle of African people, from European or any other external domination and oppression.  No other figure has contributed and influenced the minds of African people on such a grand scale, before his time or since.  Garvey although from the small Island of Jamaica, has had an influence consciously amongst African people on a global scale unparalleled.  He was also a proponent and one of the founders of Black nationalism in the United States and most importantly in Jamaica. He was a leader of the largest mass movement, often called Pan-Africanismm, but actually Ethiopianism (one of the founders of Pan- Africanism, W.E.B was Garvey's main rival  in the U.S).  Garvey also and he founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League (UNIA-ACL) and Black Star Line, two of the most revered vehicles and instruments in the history of African people struggle for freedom over the past 500 years.

Unbeknown to most Garvey's sole inspiration, his primary motivation and acclaimed guidance was from Yah & Yahshuah specifically.  Garvey was a devote Christian and has done more than any other individual to date, to provide a African people with a totally African centred view of Christ.  This information is seldom known, but is the back bone of the Yahshuah Temple website, as Garvey's specific quotes relating to the Christ, Christianity and Yah, are featured throughout.

The Credentials and Significance:

Garvey was a messenger from the One God, Yahovayah, with a Message of the One God, specifically to awaken the spiritual 1st eye of Africans, worldwide.  Calling the lost sheep, out of darkness and lead them in wilderness, in preparation to renter the Promise Land.  He is the promised "Prophet Like on to Moses"  Deut 18:15,18 and a Prophet like on to John the Baptist, heralding the coming of the Promised Seed, in our modern times, therefore being also a symbol of Elijah.
