Theology of Time - September 24,1972

 

I am a Messenger. I have a message to deliver to you from the Lord of the World. We need professional people to get going. Get going on what? To get going on building us a world of our own. We want a world of our own. We need professional people to get started with that world.

I no longer want the world that I was born in. I want my own world.

I don't want you to be so absorbed or immersed in the world that you can't get out of it to build you one of your own. Looking forward to the white man for everything, this was conditioned in us when we were babies.

This is why it's so hard to get you to do something for yourself. It is because you have always depended on the white man. You let him take care of self, and you did nothing but play like children. This thing must be stopped and the only way to get it to stop is to stop it yourself.

We want you to know that the Islamic believers are now in for building a world of their own. They are not satisfied with this world and we are trying to build a world of our own. We don't have to try much, for the world is already carved out by divine, therefore it stops us from trying to carve out pictures trying to make a world.

The world is already carved out for us and the Architect is Allah, Himself.

I don't think you have much to argue with. We want you to pay attention to what we are saying. We don't want you to think that we think the way of this world's thinking.

I want to change your way of thinking. Once that has been done, then you are on the road for self.

We have great men and we have great women with plenty of know-now, but they lay down at the gate of their enemy, the devil, blue-eyed caucasian, begging him, because they don't know how to get started for self.

We must learn to get going for self. Since we have this type of knowledge that we've learned from our enemy, put it towards self and not the enemy.

Look how silly you are! God sent the Christian and the Buddhist to fight a war killing each other. You jump in there trying to help save both of them. Just think over that. You had no rights in that war, anymore than a turtle have rights to be standing up here trying to preach to you.

You say, "Well I was fighting for my country." When did you have a country to fight for? Just tell me that and then I am through.

Back in the days of the first war, I joined up for that. Allah must have known that I didn't belong in it. One day before they called up that group which I was in, they declared that the war was over.

I never have seen people so in love with going to war as you have been in Vietnam and the one before it.

I wasn't thinking about going to the war. I even went fasting, trying to get as little as possible, so I would not be in that war.

They said that if you didn't weigh 112 pounds, they wouldn't take you. I tried my best to come down to that. Even if they had waited until today, I still would not have had to fast to get down to that weight. I'm not much over that now.

I'm one of the happiest men on the Earth to own a whole nation. That must be a rich man, to own a whole nation.

The Holy Qur'an is a book or scripture of which you don't know anything about. It verifies the Bible and the Bible verifies the Qur'an.

The Qur'an is a late scripture, revealed to Muhammad around 1,400 years ago.

If I wanted to challenge the Author of the Bible, I would first ask, "Who made the Bible?" Did the white people make it or did the Black people make it? Who made the Holy Qur'an? You say, "Muhammad". Muhammad will say to you, "It was revealed to me," but who was the revealer?

Oh yeah, we want to attack some of these know-it-alls. Do you think a spook came down to Moses and questioned him on what Moses said the spook said to him? Spirits don't talk like that. Moses said that he met God and God told him after Moses asked God Who He was: "Who shall I tell them who you are?" He was so mighty in wisdom and is strength. He just told Moses, " Tell them I am that I am." That's a mighty Man. I'm not particular about whether they know me or not, but I am that I am. When I let go " I am " they will no who it is. He said to Moses, "I am the God of your fathers. You're asking Me who I am when I'm the Father of you?"

You know, these are beautiful answers. He said again to Moses, "Come Moses, I want to send you to Pharaoh. "Moses didn't want to show his mighty self. He said, "Who am I to send to Pharaoh? He said to Moses, "You go and tell Pharaoh that you have met with me. Pharaoh is a scholar, he should know that you are not talking about yourself. You are talking about a man that he's been dreading to look upon."

"Who am I to go to Pharaoh". "I'm going with you Moses. If I go with you I'm going to bring Pharaoh to his knees."

This is what he meant. Moses was scared of Pharaoh, but he went. He found out that Pharaoh was nothing to his this God. That's what I have found out.

If the Holy Qur'an does not verify the Bible, the scripture in which the prophets brought, how could we recognize a book that you gave a name to that doesn't verify the truth of the book which we have? We cannot do that. When it verifies the truth from the book which we have, we got to believe it.

We want you to know that we live at the end of both these books. You won't study the Bible in the Hereafter, nor will you study the present Qur'an. No. You will have a new book and the new book will replace the present Bible and Qur'an.

Didn't you read in the Bible where it teaches you that the prophets or the spirit of the prophet, according to what he heard, "Go take that little book and read it, eat it up." A new book coming into being and that new book is the thing to which the people must give ear.

Now we're going the right way. These two former books, the old Testament and the New Testament have served their purpose. Now we have to remove them and get a third book and a forth book. They're two more to come. One is for you and the other is for the Orthodox World.

It takes a little more for them, since they are the fountain of scripture. You never had any. No prophet has ever come to you before, so says the Holy Qur'an.

We know we didn't see one. We were here and we haven't seen any prophet.

The Holy Qur'an says to you and me, that I am the first who ever was sent to you. " To a people..., " the Holy Qur'an says, "to whom no warner has come before you." So, I'm here. I hope you will learn to love me. I have worked as hard as any other prophet to pay for His choosing of Allah. I have ,if you remember, did everything but died physically, and I have my life for that. He brought me up on that bond of my word, that I would give my life for you, if necessary,

This is the only way that God uses a man to teach people. He's got to be willing to give up his life.

You read in the Bible how prophets, a long time ago, were killed by the people, while trying to teach them to come to God. Devils and the people killed them. They have been killing prophets every since God sent prophets, because the prophets of God destroys their work. They would put dents in evil's attempt at coming in, by their truths.

Now comes Elijah. If you start on Elijah in the book of Kings of the Bible, you read of him until you get into the Revelation. This is an important little fellow. He never attacks the servants. He attacks the kings. From Genesis to Revelation, you will find him attacking kings, not the servants. He fights them. He's some tough little fellow. That man spoken of in the beginning of the book is spoken of as straightening up the old path and then making a way for God to come to the people.

He makes a path and then you Lord, your God, Whom you wish to see, will come suddenly after Elijah makes a path for Him. The path is too crooked for God to come on. Elijah must come in and make some followers. This is what they call the pathway. He's got to have something of His own to come after. All He wants you to do is just give Him a chance to claim you, so He can fight the enemy that has held you in the bondage of sin.

So the book teaches us that Elijah must come and make a way for his God to come and get His people.

Elijah just makes a few people, so that God could have a claim on the whole. This is wonderful!

Elijah straightens out the world of his people with just a few. Immediately, here comes the owner of all.

I think you should be happy to know what time you're living in: A time when the world will be changed around. There will be a world of peace and security in which you will own what you already have owned and you will have the freedom to use it as you please.

Build a world that the people will be happy to live in. We cannot be happy living in a world that we are afraid for our own lives and our children's lives every day and night. We don't want a world like that. The root of it is the presence of an enemy on our Earth that doesn't belong on it.

In the creation of the Heavens and the Earth, our fathers didn't make enemies. They had peace. Here comes an enemy of ours just 6,000 years ago. He goes and makes a people to be our enemy, but he can't last longer than 6,000 years.

We're ready to throw him in the fire, because we can't live with such people. You can't get along with them in peace, so they must be removed.

We're not saying go and isolate them into some part of the Earth. He will come out, for he's too smart. Go and kill them, then burn him. Burn him up.

The Bible says, "Leave neither root nor branch." Kill him, and don't save nothing of him.

Oh, poor devil, I'm glad for you.

Look at our poor brothers and sisters in the South. The whole thing began to move North out here in Indiana, the killing and burning of our poor innocent people. You love a people like that? I should think you were insane if you did.

We see them and read of them Killing and burning your parents, your sisters and brothers.

Here stands God with a sword of eternal death in his hand, to rid you and me of this type of people, but you love them so much that you start defending him. Trying your best to find some law of the Scripture and will try defending him, but the Scripture doesn't defend him now. The Scriptures condemn him. It is you that he made ignorant; blind, deaf and dumb and fill you full of fear of him. That's why the Bible teaches you and me throughout it, to fear not. Fear not O ye my little flock. I, your Lord, will do great things for you. He's so wise! He's so mighty. He found me shivering and shaking. He said, "Come on, Go with Me. I will take that fear out of you." He took it out me. Now I go through the valley, as it is written, in the valley of death. For he is the death that's producing the shadow. But I fear no evil. You that follow me. You are the same. You don't fear no evil, because you have Allah on your side. We are a most happy and worthy people for God to choose us to be his people. And would kill nations for you. Your Bible Teaches you that. He will destroy nations for your lives and He's doing it! Why shouldn't we fly to a God like that. "I've been following Mr. Blue-Eyed Caucasian all my life and I have come to love him. I wishes to kill you God and my God to say him." Oh, Brother! That's bad! That's just what you say in your heart. I wish they didn't exist. I would kill them if I could. Many times you have wished that my God and your God, Master Fard Muhammad and Elijah Muhammad were dead, so you could cling on to your devil. The devil said, himself, that if they could get me out of the way, they would have a glorious kingdom. If they would get me out of the way, they would have a glorious future. But I am here. I'm here an no one can move me, but He, Who put me here. If the devil and you would unite together and try pulling me out of the way, you wouldn't do anything but put yourself out of the way. Allah has power over everything. Since He has power of everything, He most certainly has power over me to keep me and protect me. That's not going to happen with me and you. No way, because He loves you. I love you and you love both of us. We don't have nothing to fear. We have been out of our brotherhood so long in this world, we are joining up again. And we are so happy to do that until no one can now come around trying to make trouble among us, because we both love each other. I love you and you love me. The devil, blue-eyed white people, love to get around Reverend. They call him, their man, you know, and Reverend calls himself their man. Reverend believes in that blue-eyed devil because he calls him Reverend and pretends to be backing him up. But he's not backing Reverend up into nothing but the fire of hell. Reverend, can not you see that he can't do nothing with me? He don't call me no Reverend. They can't stop me. And I did not get a license from him to preach. When a man says that he's God's preacher and then has to be licensed by the world of his enemies, you have not yet become God's preacher. You're the devil's slave-making, whiteman's preacher. These are truths.

These license ordain you to preach and you must preach like he says. If you don't, he will come over and tell you, "Sit down, Reverend". He didn't license me nor ordain me. I just went to preach by order of my God. What does a God-ordained minister of the spirit of Himself look like going over to a devil asking him for a license. Oh Brother, it's sickening almost to talk about it.

My people are ordained and sent by the devil to preach what the devil tells him to preach to his people. Brother I would kick him in the face. Don't be afraid Reverend. Don't be afraid. As long as you're here with me, they're not going to run in here and bother you. Remember how Elijah fought with Ahab and proved his 400 preachers' liars and he took them and chopped their heads off? I'm not going to chop your head. Don't be thinking that. But I'm going to chop the head of the one that put you out there.

I want my God and myself to save you out of his clutches. We want to take you away from that. You will be preaching Islam overnight, but little do you know it.

If you take time and read your Bible, you will bear me witness that you have nothing that you should do but to come and follow Elijah.

Elijah must first come. If there was an Elijah that was capable with the power of God and wisdom of God, to save the people, why do they look for him to come?

Thousands of preachers, all over the country, but you can't make a way for your God and my God, because you don't serve Him. You don't convert people to our God, you convert him to save the blue-eyed devil.

All the converts that you make in your church today, you are making them for him, not for Almighty God, Who has power over the Heavens and the Earth. Have you made one convert for Him?

Of all of your preaching that you have preached, all of your life, how many have you made converts to the God of Heaven and Earth? Not even one. You made him for the white folks. I don't care if you make a thousand a day, as long as you are preaching Christianity, you are making them for the white man. He claims them to be his. Every Christian he claims to be his.

Every Muslim I claim him to be mine."Who am I," he said. " I am that I am." "Who shall I say sent me? " Tell them, " I am that I am, Is Who sent thee."

Oh brother , that's pretty strong. " Tell them I am the God of their fathers." He's a strong man talking.

If He is "I am  that I am." I am to believe "I am that I am".

"Tell them that I am the God of your fathers and I heard the moaning and groaning of my people. I couldn't be satisfied sitting in Heaven and hearing the groans and the moans of my people under hard task masters; so, it moved Me and I have come down..." Think over it. "...I have come down, not out of the sky, but I have come down from my high place, to get in your place so you may know I love you. You have been hung up by ropes, chains, and burned at the stake in the fire by a blue-eyed devil, that Yakub made to do just that to you and me. "

"I, God, have come down from my high place in the Heavens of the righteous to you who are bound in hell. I came down to loose you. I came down to free you and to kill your enemy."

After reading all these things of the past, similar things are now coming to us at present. "Where did you come from?" "Don't worry me in that, I came alone, by myself,"

"I came alone,by myself, having the power to walk alone, and having the power to destroy my enemies and my enemy. I am alone; I am the One God. I don't need no help. I'm alone, but you were brought over here, and I come to free you from the tip-top. You did not want to come with that enemy, but they put you in chains, you couldn't help yourself. I have the key to unlock that chain from around you. I can teach one of you to do that. I will pass the key over to Elijah. Every since he's been in his boyhood, he's been craving to see someone come to the rescue of his people; so, I'm going to give him the key. He will unlock the doors. He will let you out. I'm going to put power in that key so he can use it to lock up your enemies. He has the key to both hell and death. He's going to put a stop to bleeding you to death. I'm going to let him go; he's already angry. Elijah doesn't have to get angry at him, he has already been angry with him, but he didn't have nothing to fight with. I'm going to give him something to fight with and I'm going to fight with him."

The Lord said unto Ezekiel, "Son of Man, can these bones live?" He said, "Thou knowest, the All-Knowing One. If they can live, you know that." Neither argued with the other; they all were in agreement.

"Go tell them to hear the Word of the Lord," which didn't work too well; they're too stubborn.

He said, "I will give you an instrument. I Will make you a better one for you to use. Go call on the winds. Tell them to come from all four parts. Call on them Elijah; they will hear you. They will come and help you. Tell them to help you with these who are slain."

He saw us as a slain people and told the Messenger to call on the nations that He called "winds of the earth" to help him. The nations of the Earth are now shocked in their souls to help.

It is wonderful to know that you have a God on your side today.

He looked upon us and saw how pitiful we were. He said, "I found you in a day of love. It was  the time of his love for us, but we were wallowing in our blood or rather, I should say, in our ignorance of God and of ourselves, like a baby who has just been born and he's waddling in the blood of his mother.

"Poor little fellow." He says in symbolic language, there was no one to put a skirt on him, no one to wash him, clean him up. He was just a new born baby rolling in his own blood, with no one to cut the navel cord. He's alone.

That was a time of love, He said. He came, and after He had washed us with the waters of Islam, He then bandaged us up. He said to us, "You shall be mine. A mother coming from abroad, this is wonderful!

The baby's here, but no one had thought enough of the baby to wash the baby up and put it on clean clothes to send it out among the public.

My brothers and sisters, Allah and myself are cleaning you up and you have on beautiful garments, in which you're not ashamed to go out in the public. The public stare at you and they wonder, "Who has did this job for you?" Tell them a man, who calls himself Elijah Muhammad.

Both Holy Qur'an and Bible says that after this work, He tells us "Me." "Me and Me alone should you fear. I am your Lord; I have got you." Think over this.

"I have now taken you and gave you my name; a name that the world must respect. It is my name. I will call you by that name and the world will know that I have visited you." All praise is due to Allah!

You are now going around here calling yourselves angels of heaven, when before your were calling yourself Mr.Jones, Mr. Culpeper, and Mr. Jackson. Who is Jackson? You are a fallen angel from heaven, caused by an enemy who pushed you out of heaven with his way of doing things. You don't have no name.

All the names of God have a meaning to them, but the devil's names have no meaning. He that has the name of Allah will live forever, for that name will live forever.

Go along with us and the world will admire you. I don't care where you go on this Earth today, and tell those people that, "I came from America and I follow Elijah Muhammad." They'll say "come in."

Any place you go, you will be recognized and respected.

Some of them have gone over and told stories that they were following me just to see what would happen. The people took them in so fast they got excited. They knew they was telling other than the truth. That made him to join up with us.

We are in Russia, we are in China, we are everywhere. You can't go no place without finding us. Just go and try it for yourself, and if you return, tell me if you didn't get respect by claiming me to be your leader and I will pay all of your expenses. I will go over there myself and ask them why.

Naturally they're not going to pay too much attention to you if you go over there looking for whiskey and beer, even if they drink it themselves they know you shouldn't drink it.

Any man loves his family. If he doesn't, he shouldn't have family. All men that have families, they should love them. Do good to the wife who brings an increase of yourself into the world. We can't do nothing but plant seeds, but we should watch the seed and help it to grow.

One thing we must remember again is that we are up from slavery with slave ideas towards self and towards our wives. Our wives are  far more better than we think they are. If we show better to them.

So let us do that. Let us show them good and that we are good men. They won't want to go away from you.

I don't see nothing out of your house that you should go after. If you have a Black woman there, you have the best.

We know how the devil has made us ugly, disfigured and what not. We don't want to be like that, so He told me, out of His own mouth that we will be a different people. So, I don't think you have to ask me will He make us ugly. He can just leave us alone, we're already that.

He said to me that He will make us the most beautiful people that have ever lived. Yes! If He's going to make us the wisest, surely wisdom brings about people contacting you. You're not going to be sitting before people ugly. You must look beautiful to compare with the beautiful wisdom you have in your head.

If you'd just follow me, I think you will have everything you ever imagined that you wanted. Remember that. Everything you ever imagined you wanted will come to you, just stick with me.

Question: Sir, you said something about that you would have to go and have one of God's names. I noticed that friends of mine started naming their children certain Asian names. I would like you to clear that up.

Messenger : You and all your children can be named at once and that's what you can get. I can name you, and He's not going to take the name away that I give, but I don't want to be so smart in taking over the naming of the people. I do know His names, which you have to be named in, but I expect Him here pretty soon and I don't want Him to come and find me taking over His job.
