ISIS declared a WORLD WAR and recruits fighters from all over the world. Erdogen has joined ISIS in his attack and his claim. WAKE UP! Londa Shembe maintained that his grandfather, Isaiah Shembe continued the essence of Jewish religion in his own teachings. He taught that the Biblical prophet Jeremiah referred to the Zulu people whom he believed were descended from the Jews.[8] As a result Lond…a Shembe began to study Hebrew and was a voracious reader of books dealing with Jewish Religion. He also made contact with an Orthodox rabbi in Durban and unsuccessfully attempted to contact an Hasidic group in Johannesburg. Developing this theme he believed that the teachings of Isaiah Shembe and the teachings of “the old Afrikaner people” were the same because they both emphasized “Unkulunkuln Ka Adam”, the God of Adam.
We can safely say that the mission of Isaiah Shembe was to restore the dignity of the Zulu person and the independence of the Zulu nation who suffered greatly when they resisted the invasions of their country by first the Boers and later the British. The aim of Isaiah Shembe was to restore his people to the previous glory and this he believed could be done on the basis of God’s presence among the Zulu people in the same way as God had revealed His presence to ancient Israel. In 1913, two years after he founded The Church of the Nazarites, he had a vision which led him to declare that the church accepted the Sabbath as God’s holy day instead of the Christian Sunday. As a result of this vision he considered the Sabbath to be the key to Zulu fortunes because it was the test of true obedience to God.Hymn 17:3 Isaiah Shembe states:
“The enemies of Jehova
rise up against you
wake up, wake up
ye AfricansThe enemies of Jehova are those who have destroyed the Zulu nation namely Boer and Brit. But he adds in verse 4:

“Those are bestowed kingly authority
upon the mountain,
Wake up, wake up
ye Africans’.

The Mount Sinai of the amaNazarites is not only related to Jehova but also to the predominantly non-Christian but now sanctified royal ancestry of the Zulu nation. The Christianity of the Whites rejected them but through Isaiah Shembe Jehova sanctified and accepted them in spite of the fact that they passed away as non-Christians. At the Mount Sinai of the Nazarites the Zulu nation has come into a new relationship with Jehova. Here they drink from the fountain of Sendzangakhona the father of the Zulu nation, Hymn 216:5, and from the rock of Mount Sinai, lulelotshe lasentabeni yase sinayi, Hymn 83:5. Isaiah Shembe is seen here as the mediator for the Zulu nation and not those who want to snatch away the eternal kingly authority. He warns in Hymn 17:5:

“They now want to dispossess you
of eternal kingly authority,
Wake up, wake up
ye Africans”

As a result of the mysterious happenings on Nhlangakazi Isaiah Shembe has indeed become the mediator of the Zulu nation. He has the breeding for his position as a Ntungwa, a man of pure Nguni racial stock, from which the Zulu nation originated. Among many Zulu outside his church there were doubts about the ancestry of Isaiah Shembe because he came from the Orange Free State. Some gossips even suggested that he could either be of Sotho or Tswana descent. But, in the Preface to the published book of Hymns[20] Johannes Galilee Shembe, his son and successor states, quite explicitly that he was “the son of Mayekisa, of Nhliziyo, of Nzazela, of Sokhabuzela, of Nyathikazi”, that the Shembes are “Ntungwa of Nhlanzi of Donsa”. Isaiah Shembe was in his very being a Zulu.
7 Commenting on this issue Professor Vilakazi says Johannes Galilee Shembe was “deliberately and unapologetically Zulu”.[21] He adds that the movement has no particular concern for Whites and Indians but is rather meant for “the children of Sendzangakhona.”[22] Thus it may be said that Isaiah Shembe had a never failing sense of supernatural presence.

THE ROLE OF Isaiah SHEMBE IN AMA-NAZARITE RITUAL
Traditional Zulu religion is expressed in ritual rather than dogma. Among the amaNazarites some of the rituals are elaborate, for example, the events on the holy mountain of Nhlangakazi, during the annual January celebrations and the First Fruit Ceremonies held during Christmas period. One such ritual is the u-Fontina ceremony which commences on the evening of the 13th of every month. This is a women’s ritual involving married members of the amaNazarites.[23]
The ceremonies are held at the temples nearest to the amaNazarite settlement where the women live. First, the women assemble at the gate of the settlement dressed in their white robes, known as umNazaretha. Then they form a procession into the settlement singing Hymn 173 which begins:

1. Give way that we enter
that we may serve Jehova.
We had been imprisoned
the gates are now opened
2. Give way that he may enter
oh, here is the Zulu nation
the progeny of Dingaan
and Sendzangakhona.
