Chapter 50

← Chapter 49Chapter 51
1

The Lord said: Gabriel raised upon the earth one Mohammed, and inspired him through his angel hosts. And the angels inspired Mohammed to go once every month in the year into the cave of Hara; on which occasions, Gabriel came in person, and talked with Mohammed, who had su’is in great perfection.

2

Twelve years in peace Gabriel inspired mortals through Mohammed. But, at the end of thirteen years, Mohammed attained to sufficient strength to draw the sword for Gabriel’s doctrines. And Gabriel, through inspiration, caused the Mohammedans to commemorate this as the beginning of his kingdom on earth. And they, therefore, consecrated the said period of time.

3

And, on this first meeting of the faithful in Gabriel, Mohammed, being under inspiration, spoke before the multitude, saying:

4

There is only one Allah, and he is God. Heaven is his. The earth is the Lord’s, through the angel, Gabriel. This is the sum and substance of all things. This was the doctrine of Abraham and of Moses, our forefathers.

5

But evil men have invented other Gods, which have no existence. They are idols, which exist only in superstition and ignorance.

6

Do not revere me, or call me wise. I am not wise; I have little learning. Knowledge comes to me from the Unseen. My eyes are open, my ears are open. I see and hear spiritual things. The angels of heaven tell me things of wisdom.

7

I only repeat them. Therefore, I am neither wise, nor great. I strive to be honest and upright before God, but I am weaker than a child in these respects. Therefore, do not worship me, nor bow down before me. I am nothing.

8

As I am an instrument in the hands of God, through his angel, Gabriel, so also were Abraham and Moses and many of the prophets. They could work miracles. I cannot. Therefore, I am the least of God’s prophets.

9

I am sent into the world so that you may become exalted before God. Shall I reveal what Gabriel has told me? Or do you believe God is dead, or gone far away? Do you believe that he cannot raise up a prophet in this day? Is God weak? Or has he forgotten the world he created?

10

Why has this thing come at this time? No man can answer that. Gabriel says: There is a false God in heaven, and he has falsely called himself, Kriste. Gabriel says that he himself, Gabriel, provided the way for the gathering of the lost sheep of Israel, through an iesu.

11

Brothers, I will tell you why I am chosen of God: It is to circumvent the Kriste’yans’ idolatry from coming into Arabin’ya and the countries north and south and east.

12

These countries were given by God to our forefathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and then down to Moses, and then down to us.

13

There is only one God, and Gabriel is his angel of the entire world.

14

And God raises up a prophet from time to time, to bless his chosen people.

15

He put this matter upon me; I know only to serve God.

16

The Kriste’yans are merciless warriors. This false Kriste and his worshippers are working for the Romans, and not for salvation. Wherever they go, they destroy the libraries, and all manner of learning.

17

Will you submit, like slaves, to have them despoil you? Is there no Arabin’yan blood in your veins?

18

When asked to state the Mohammedan doctrines, he said: To tell no lies; to not commit fornication; to preserve the ceremonies; to give freely to the poor; to observe the sacred days; to not aggress; but to war for the innocent and oppressed; to maintain the liberty of the people; to not steal, and to deceive no man. ||

19

Mohammed, being under inspiration of the God, Gabriel, and his angels, collected together thousands and tens of thousands of warriors, and went forth to conquer. And the angel hosts of Gabriel went forth with Mohammed’s army, and inspired them to such degree that they were without fear or hesitation. And Gabriel’s hosts of angels went into the armies that fought against Mohammed, and inspired them with fear, cowardice and panic.

20

And it came to pass that wherever Mohammed went, there was sure victory, the like of which had not been for many centuries.

21

Now Looeamong, the false Kriste, had previously destroyed, for the most part, the Alexandrian library, having inspired a mortal priest, Coatulius, to do the work.

22

And Looeamong, now perceiving the triumph of Mohammed, inspired three hundred monks and priests to go throughout Heleste and Arabin’ya, and destroy the ancient state records and libraries, which they did, accomplishing the destruction.

23

Mohammed was shown this by Gabriel, and he used it as a battle-cry for his soldiers.

24

Looeamong now declared war in heaven against the false God-Gabriel; and in not many years, they both carried their war down to earth, contending for certain localities on the earth.

25

As for the other two false Gods, Kabalactes, alias Buddha, and Ennochissa, alias Brahma, they had been at war against each other for over six hundred years.

26

And now these four false Gods had possession of the whole earth; at least, wherever there were mortal kingdoms and empires.

27

Now, in reference to the Faithists: In Chine’ya and Vind’yu, they were no longer identified with the kingdoms or governments, but lived about in scattered families. In Arabin’ya, Heleste and Uropa, they were scattered in all directions. From the time of Joshu’s death, in Jerusalem, they began to migrate, mostly toward the west.

28

And these called themselves, Israelites and Jews.

29

Nevertheless, many of the Israelites and Jews, so-called, were apostates in fact; eating flesh, and marrying with other peoples.

30

Now after the fall of the great empire, Egupt, her people migrated westward, hundreds of thousands of them, and they settled in western Uropa, where these people married with the aborigines. Their offspring were called Druids, Picts, Gales (Gaelic, Celtic), Wales (Welsh), Galls (Gauls), and Yohans (Johns), all of which are Eguptian names, preserved to this day.

31

Now, when the Faithists were moved by the inspiration of God to have no more kings, and to flee away from the Kriste’yan warriors, they came among the people above mentioned. The apostate Faithists married with them, and their offspring were the forefathers of those now called, French, German, Russian and English.

32

|| God, Son of Jehovih, had said: Allow the apostates to marry so, for from their descendents I will find a way to raise up disbelievers in the false Kriste; and they shall ultimately become believers in Jehovih only.

33

For, because I have allowed them to become scattered, so will I appropriate them as seed to quicken all the races of men to comprehend the All One. ||
