Chapter 4
Give ear, O man, and be wise in your judgment, of sure perception and good discernment in the revelations of my words in the cycles past and present.
For I summed up all the Gods of the hadan regions of the earth, and all their high officers in the plateaus and their heavenly kingdoms, and I named them, GOD! And in their dominions with mortals I named them, LORD! In my past revelations on the earth I made them as one, namely, GOD, so that I would not confuse the judgment of men!
And all the heavenly places of the earth, the atmospherean heavens, which travel with the earth around the sun, I named, HADA, the intermediate world, the lower heaven. Through which none can pass to the etherean heaven till purged of self, and made spotless, pure, and strong in spirit.
Of this hadan heaven, and of her Gods and their labors I made two words, GOD and HEAVEN, and Eskra is their sermon. In which you nations of the earth, and you angels of heaven, shall profit in spirit, even as by past experience, the future becomes fortified in wisdom and strength.
In which sermon all resurrection is of God, who is Jehovih’s Son; but to distinguish from that which is of God, I named all who did not desire resurrection in heaven, but loved the earth more, SATAN. And whoever loved evil and practiced it, I named, SATAN; and whoever combined, as angels or as mortals, to make anarchy I named, EVIL WORKERS for hell.
As God and heaven are of the resurrection, so are satan, hell and the devil of the declension.
All men on the earth and all the spirits of the dead belong to one or the other, resurrection or declension.
None can stand still; all the living are on the move forever.
Jehovih is Life, Motion, Individual, Person! In proof of which, He gave to you life, motion, individuality, person.
To develop these four entities is resurrection toward Him, more and more, which is heavenly.
To neglect them, or pervert them, is to go away from Him, which is declension, which can lead to entire destruction.
No man can be life for another; nor motion, nor individuality, nor person for another. For himself, and to himself, Jehovih has created man with these.
Nor can any of the Gods, however exalted, give or take away these things.
For even though the highest raised angels may attain to turn the earth over, or to dissolve it into air in the firmament, or create a new earth, yet none of these can create life, or motion, or an individual, or person.
These are from Jehovih and in Him; and all angels, Gods, Lords, generals, captains and chiefs in heaven, are only the brothers and sisters of both mortals and the spirits of the dead.
And yet, O man of the earth, and you, angel of the heavens of the earth, do not be puffed up or make light of the Gods, or Lords, or Saviors, or Chiefs of the heavens, for compared to them you are only like a drop of water is, compared to the ocean.
As a man among you employs a thousand men to do his bidding, so do I, your God, have billions of angels to speak in my name.
Do not put off my words, saying: It is only your conscience speaking. My angels speak to you in spirit, with my very voice and words, which are Jehovih’s also.
According to the capacities and talents of those mortals who practice my commandments, so do I appropriate them to assist in the resurrections.
And in the same way, I allot my ashars to abide with you: to the musician, angel musicians; to the philosopher, angel philosophers; to the historian, angel historians; to the cosmographer, angel cosmographers; to the revelator, angel revelators; even so to all men who seek to serve Jehovih by doing good.
And these, my ashars, which I place over you, are not individual angels, merely acting and speaking their own notions, but are organized companies of billions, who labor through a chief angel, called Lord; and all of them are in concord with me and my kingdoms, directed by my Holy Council, of millions of angels high in wisdom, which is directed by me, your God, even as I am one with other Gods, who are one with Jehovih.
What my angels do in truth and wisdom, for righteousness’ sake, these I ratify in heaven; what I do in heaven, my angels do and reveal to you in my name.
