Chapter 12
While the heavens of the earth were thus stirred up with war and with anticipated misfortunes and strange doctrines, there came to Paradise, before the throne of God, a host of seven thousand angels, who had been victims of the inquisitions under the inspiration of the false Kriste, Looeamong, asking for an audience with God.
Accordingly, after the chief marshal had announced this before the throne and Holy Council, God commanded them to approach, and speak.
And those who were leaders then came, and spoke. These were: Rochus, Estella, Coceicas, Martin, Ajedio, Burton, Gardener, Oguier, Isagades, Thornton, Wincelaus, Hepburn, Autonus, Hague, Bothna, Hijas, Sedasius, Prague, Septullus, Thilinae, Portia, Fuessa, Barm, Donia, Sarekka, Solomon, Jolif, Gallilleo, Sega, Spinola, Sutton, Jinuthes, Sirach, Obenaes, Pelachon, Berttimo, Feirdonas, Puberttas, Quidonatus, Paglia, Suzarathga, Wotchganheim, Givier, Dospastonitus, Leiberanz, Jasman, Orolf, Meyer, Litz, Herman, Dolche, Mogan, Ruchtevolt, Yokamsteimer, Bolch, Calas, Radby, Yan’tos, Le’chaim, Fetch, Bliney, Catherine (queen), Lambert, Holt, Renn, Savicht, John, Barnes, Sanwalt, Biers, Drumfoldt, Nekairo, Hemsted, Wight, Thuce, Kerby, Askew, Wolfe, Bartholf, Brown, Wishartd, Mille, Sadarak, Gaepon, Hutton, Somerset, Railif, Bedford, Wehlen, Gaison, Darcy, Wallace, Tudon, Taylor, Farrar, Jones, White, Myers, Henry, Atino, Percy, Alies, Flower, Joseph, Milne, Warne, Simpson, Latimer, Ridley, Cranmer, Lang, Pesth, Bradbridge, Walstein, Allin, Jesse, Ormes, Staveson and Donald. And this is the substance of what they said:
Most Holy God, Jehovih’s Son, greeting in love, in pity, and in anger!
We are not Gods, nor pure, nor holy. Therefore pity us.
We are not happy, and feel that in our struggles to find truth we have been unfairly used. Therefore, pity us.
We were born in mud-holes, and have soiled garments. Therefore, have compassion upon us.
We are in search of clean water, so that we may go wash ourselves. Therefore, guide us.
We have such strength as a mad wolf would be proud of. Therefore, use us.
We have not such mercy and forgiveness as becomes Gods. Therefore, give us rough work to do.
Such work, in fact, that would require no one to split a hair to discern right or wrong.
Not that we desire to glut ourselves in vengeance against the false Kriste. One step higher, O God.
In such a matter where, if an innocent lamb were pursued by a wolf, give us to rush in, and save the lamb.
Now, behold, the rumor has come to us, that you will establish Guatama free from the dominion of Gods and Saviors.
And it comes to this: We are so far on the road to purification, that we can no longer catch the false Kriste’s angels, and hurl them into hell.
Nevertheless, we are not so fastidiously pure that we would not seize his evil-working angels, and hold them by the throats till you had your great country founded safely for Jehovih’s kingdom.
If, therefore, you can appropriate seven thousand angels in some loose and unscrupulous corner, to do you good service against the tyrant and remorseless Looeamong, behold, we stand before Jehovih and you, to do your will as you may command.
God said to them: My brothers and sisters, in the name of Jehovih, I welcome you.
What you can do, that you shall do; nor shall any but yourselves judge yourselves.
To the extent that you have the light of the Father, so shall you serve Him.
You are responsible to Him only; for His triumph shall be the redemption of heaven and earth.
Behold, Looeamong will surely inspire a war, both in Guatama, with mortals, and in its heavens, with the angels.
My angel hosts shall inspire the mortals of Guatama to found a government free from the dominion of Gods and Saviors.
War will follow. Now, behold, I have appointed Yotahiza, as my Lord for those regions. Go there with my messengers who know the way, and Yotahiza will receive you in my name, and give you work in justice, truth and wisdom.
The army of the inquisition then saluted, and departed, and they came to Yotahiza’s heavenly station with the colonists in Guatama.
