Haile Selassie was an Orthodox Christian, and obviously denied he was devine. He landed his plane in Jamaica in the 60s, but he did not exit amd tell the people he was not God

“I have heard of that idea. I also met certain Rastafarians. I told them clearly that I am a man, that I am mortal, and that I will be replaced by the oncoming generation, and that they should never make a mistake in assuming or pretending that a human being is emanated from a deity.”
That is the reply of Selassie to Bill McNeil of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, back in 1967.
