“Woe to the bloody city! It is all full of lies and robbery; the prey departeth not; The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the prancing horses, and of the jumping chariots.” (Nahum 3:1,2)

America answers this prophecy of the ruins of ancient Ninevah. Ninevah was full of lies and robbery; so is America. “The prey departeth not.” The poor so-called Negroes in America are the prey and they refuse to depart from America regardless of the evil treatment they receive. Though the whips and the clubs of their enemy are heard night and day upon the heads and backs of the prey (so-called Negroes), they still do not desire to depart from America.

Ancient Ninevah, according to her history, was full of chariots that made much noise and the prancing horses carrying the chariots in full speed that the prophets described them as “jumping chariots.” So it is in America today: her cities are filled with automobiles and the noise of them is heard every hour of the day, rattling past our doors.

She is full of blood from murdered people. She also fills another prophecy made in Habakkuk 2:12: “Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!”

America was founded and built with blood and established by iniquity. She killed the aboriginal inhabitants (Indians) to establish herself as an independent people at the great loss of lives of the original owners. Her great progress has been made by the work of iniquity. She has robbed many people; and the blood of her slaves, the so-called Negroes, has stained the earth here and elsewhere, slain by her hands.

The lawless people kill their own leaders and assassinate their rulers. Anyone who opens his mouth for justice for the poor prey (so-called Negroes) is seized, prosecuted, and in many cases slain because he dared open his mouth for the oppressed against the oppressors.

Woe to America! She has established a government with blood. The murderers seek to kill the innocent all the day long. Regardless of the people’s choice of a ruler, if chosen, he should be obeyed and given a chance to serve the people until that people dispossesses him for another.

It is very evil, very shameful and savage in these enlightened days of education and science for America to be charged with killing her rulers and great men of wisdom and science without due process of law.

There is no justice for us, the so-called Negroes, in a government whose citizens are free to kill until satisfied and then turn upon their rulers and slay them. What chance have we under the rule of such people? We live under the very shadow of death all the day long.

The assassinated President Abraham Lincoln, by John W. Booth in Washington, D.C., April 14, 1865–who died April 15, 1865–was successful in freeing our parents from servitude slavery; to weaken the slave master’s strength against the Federal Government. For this he paid with his life.

President James A. Garfield, assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau, July 2, 1881, in Washington, D.C. and died September 19, 1881. President William McKinley, shot September 6, 1901, Buffalo, New York, by Leon Czolgosy, and died September 14, 1901. President John F. Kennedy, assassinated November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, by the accused assassin Lee Harvey Oswald, and died minutes later. All four of these presidents were known to have spoken and acted sympathetically towards the so-called Negroes, and they paid with their lives for doing so.

There are others who had attempts made upon their lives. Mr. Huey P. Long, U.S. Senator of Louisiana, was shot September 18, 1935, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, by Dr. Carl A. Weiss, and died September 19, 1935. Mr. Long preached “share the wealth.” And for this he paid with his life.

There is no justice for the poor, the so-called Negroes in America as long as they are subjects under the American flag. A great attempt is now being made on the poor, lost found, so called Negroes to deceive them by making false friendship, and the passage of Civil Rights bills, and forcing themselves to accept the lost-found (so-called Negroes) into their social equality.

This is only a trap for us. To accept it will make us enemies of God and our Black people of Africa and Asia who are our true friends. It would be totally ignorant on our part to be swept away to our doom by accepting these maelstrom promises of social equality temptations. Our ignorant masses cannot be trusted under the charms (temptation) of un-alike. But in the end you will regret your actions.

If America wants to offer us a better side of her, why not offer something of permanent good, such as a portion of the country (a few states) for our ever-increasing population? Will the White man fool himself in continuously making promises to us that he knows he cannot fulfill? He has his own problems of unemployment, with the ever-increasing unemployed of his own kind fleeing from Asia and Africa, plus the loss of foreign trade.

Can we hope for him to care for us and our children forever? No! We need a place on this earth that we can call our own, and go to work and produce our own needs; and this will provide us with employment for our unemployed. Let no man deceive you; we are face to face with a change of worlds.

The post Is Modern America as Merciless as Ancient Ninevah? appeared first on Final Call News.

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad in his July 21, 1956 article, noted that we: “…are inclined to righteous worship so much so, until they are constantly seen disgracing themselves, in their ignorant way, due to the lack of knowledge … .”

It is clear that as the master robbed the slave of his natural ability to think, feel and do for himself. He (the slavemaster) directed our thoughts, feelings, and actions into their service. They turned our natural inclinations against ourselves and for themselves. They warped our minds. They reduced us during slavery into nothings in contrast to what we were and could become.

On page 304 of Message To The Blackman, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad made clear that the slaves were made to think he would get a better life, including wealth, after the white man worked, or otherwise, put him to death. The masters taught the slaves to seek his reward in a heaven in the sky after death to control the slave. They did not want the slaves thinking over the wealth the slaves were producing for the masters while both were alive here on earth. The white man filled the slaves’ imaginations with pictures of a false heaven to which they would go if they obeyed the masters. Moreover, the slaves saw no way to get a better life while they lived. Thus, the slaves’ longing for a better life was directed into fantasy; unreality. They did not know that their deepest yearnings would and could never be realized where and how they thought–in the sky after they died.

As the Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches, the masters knew that no slave who died would be able to return to tell his brothers and sisters that the white people deceived them.

The slaves put their hopes for a good life beyond death because of the lies of the masters. They planned for death, not for life. They even expected to become white, like their white masters taught them Jesus was–a white god.**

The crushing weight of slavery combined with what the white people taught our people of Jesus produced a yearning for deliverance and a deliverer. Despite the fact that the slavemaster directed this longing to that which did not exist, this longing continued and intensified.

From the days of physical bondage until 1930, there were few changes in the Black man’s thinking about God, Jesus or himself. However, those changes that did occur were due to such factors as migration to the North, World War 1, increased education, somewhat better economic conditions and Marcus Garvey– who generated the first mass movement among Black people in America. This resulted in a drift from Christianity. But this drift was neither rapid nor far.

Another factor in this drift was despair of ever being relieved of the white man’s evils by means of the Christian religion. This despair combined with an inability to really understand the mystery god of Christianity, tended, somewhat, to reduce the Black man’s desire to rely on that god and religion.

Underlying all this (in America) and more (around the globe) was the unseen hand of Allah. He was active in behalf of His own, though they were unaware of Him. Their deliverance was being prepared, although they knew it not. The Deliverer was on the way, despite their ignorance of Him.

In another part of the earth, in the East, the Son of Man was preparing to openly manifest His presence among them and initiate His plans of salvation for those who were lost here in the West. All of this was written in the very Bible our fathers and mothers were reading and in which they believed.

Five thousand years earlier Abraham was helped to foresee this terrible state of condition. He was told by the Living God that he through his descendants would inherit the land which was shown to him. He asked God how shall he know this. He asked God for the means, the manner by which he could know this. He was not asking from a doubtful mind. He had demonstrated that he fully trusted his God. His God answered him by first giving him some instructions involving some birds. We will return to these details later.

Then, as it is recorded in Genesis 15:12 “As the sun was setting, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and a thick and dreadful darkness came over him.” Note: As, or while, or in accordance with which or with the way in which the sun was setting, he went into a peculiar kind of sleep. Other versions read: “a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, a horror of great darkness fell upon him.” Others use the word “terror” for “horror.”

Abraham went into an unusually deep sleep. The word variously translated horror, or terror, also means fear, and terrible dread. It implies something extremely frightening. The word translated darkness also means to make extremely dark or black, or to hide; even to confuse, in some of its nuances. It was a darkness, according to other aspects of its meaning, that enveloped, engulfed, or wrapped up that which it fell on.

The word fell, in the text, means that it (the darkness) has such power so as to cast down, divide, overthrew, and to make inferior, that on which it fell. It made one to fall and was that which had power to cause to fall.

The idea in that which is called a trance, is, to some extent, involved in the state of mind into which God put Abraham. A trance is, according to one simple definition: “a half-conscious state, seemingly between sleeping and waking, in which ability to function voluntarily may be suspended, especially a state produced by hypnosis or religious ecstasy.”

However, this does not cover all that this prophet of God experienced. He went into a state of sleep deeper than that which the above definition of trance tells us. He was taken in his spirit into our day. He was transported into this 400-year period of our enslavement and made to experience, in his spirit, something of what we were to go into 5,000 years after his time.

It was while he was in this condition that the Living God told Abraham–with the utmost conviction–these words, in verse 13: “Then the LORD said to him, ‘Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years.”

For certain it happened! These words pointed directly to the millions of millions of Black people who were enslaved by the enslaver. But, with equal certainty, which originated from His infinite wisdom and power, He further told His servant, as verse 14 reads: “But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will come out with great possessions.” (NIV)

This refers specifically to the United States of America. Some will say but that was in the past. Later we’ll come, Allah willing, to the sign of Jonah and how that nation which he warned took the words and lived, and the relevance of this to the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and this country.

More next issue, Allah willing.

“And certainly We sent Moses with Our signs and a clear authority.  To Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they followed the bidding of Pharaoh; and Pharaoh’s bidding was not right-directing.  He will lead his people on the day of Resurrection, and bring them down to the Fire. And evil the place to which they are brought!”–Holy Qur’an, Surah 11, verses 96-98

The brain is a mathematically precise instrument that records all of our life experiences tracing back to trillions and trillions of years into the distant past and projects information and imagery into an unending future time.  Scientists have told us that modern man uses less than 10 percent of our brain power to think and to solve our everyday problems.  The Honorable Elijah Muhammad has taught us that the brain was created to think right, to which I might add, and is mathematically precise in all of its functions to remember and record all things.  Through the precision of mathematics and its proper application, we can tune into the thinking of others, when necessary, and thus prescribe the circle of our activity.  Everything in life is structured or based upon the principles of mathematics (Islam) and can be proven in no limit of time.  Tantamount to the function of the brain is the mind from which creation originates. 

According to our Nation’s Supreme Wisdom writings of Lessons that is required for all enrolled students or new converts, we are given rules and regulations to guide us through life.  We read in Lesson No. 2, Question & Answer 1 the following words:  “The Nation of Islam is all-wise and does everything right and exact.”  What is the language that is prescribed in the above Lesson?  It is the language of mathematics combined with the proper use of words and letters forming thoughts from which our histories are written and recorded.  Measurements taken from our earth’s circumference, which is 25,000 miles is used by our wise scientists of the East (Black Man) to record our histories or Koran to equal our home circumference.  These repetitive cycles are renewed in intervals until today.  The Honorable Elijah Muhammad introduced to us the perimeters of a New World of thought that would bring an end to this present cycle of 25,000-year intervals to write our history. 

A new, advanced technology is being revealed that will take its place from the mind of God, Himself.  He teaches us that we are being prepared to take on a new growth and a complete change in the order of things on earth and in our universe.  A new book or revelation is soon to be revealed by God, Himself, in establishing a new heaven and a new earth, and the former things will pass away.  These truths coming from God, Himself, is being revealed to a people who were classified as being no people at all starting in Black Bottom Detroit, Michigan, in the 1930s by Master W. F. Muhammad, the Great Mahdi.  What was his objective and why did he care for a people who were unwanted, despised and rejected by the entire world of humanity and appeared to be literally slain from the foundation of the world?

We have it written in our Supreme Wisdom Lesson No. 2, Question and Answer 38—“…That HE could make a Devil, which is weak and wicked, and give the Devil power to rule the Earth for six thousand years and, then, destroy the Devil in one day without falling a victim to the Devil’s Civilization.  Otherwise to show and prove that ALLAH is the God—always has been and always will be.”  Herein, might be the understanding that the Devil has only six ounces of brain power (6,000 years to rule), while the Original Man exceeds this number by seven and a half ounces of brain power (coming into the 7,000th Millennium reign) following Satan’s rule and dominion.

“This is an account of the towns which We relate to thee.  Of them are some that stand and (others) mown down.  And We wronged them not but they wronged themselves.  And their gods whom they called upon besides Allah availed them naught when the decree of thy Lord came to pass.  And they added to them naught but ruin. And such is the punishment of thy Lord, when he punishes the towns while they are iniquitous. Surely His punishment is painful, severe.”–Holy Qur’an, Surah 11, verses 100-102

The bad food and drinks we are putting into our bodies keep us a victim to illness. There are not too many nice doctors who will tell you that drugs are not good for you, because they paid for their learning and want to keep practicing.

But “How to Eat to Live” is what we want to know, and have wanted to know all of our lives. Every man or woman wants to know how he (or she) can prolong his (or her) life.

Nature teaches us to stay here in this life as long as we can. Nature has never taught anyone that he should leave this life and find another one somewhere else, because we only have one life. If this life is destroyed, we would have a hard time trying to get more life; it is impossible. So, try to keep this life you have as long as possible. Go when you cannot stay here any longer.

ALLAH TAUGHT ME that one meal a day would keep us here for a long time; we would live over 100 years. And eating one meal every two days would lengthen our lives just that much longer. He told me you would never be sick, eating one meal every three days. The fact that fasting is the cure to 90 percent of our ills is known by the medical scientists. But, they do not teach you that.

They know that tobacco, hard whiskey and alcohol are not good for you and will shorten your life and kill you. But most of them are too weak themselves to stop drinking or smoking or chewing tobacco. So they do not teach you that tobacco and alcoholic drinks—made into what is known as whiskey, beer and wine—are not good for you, although they know it to be true.

They will say, “Yes, it is good for you if you are temperate.” But, they know that once you get started on that stuff, it is such an enemy that it just takes you into its power, and it is almost like trying to break an iron chain to get away from the habit. So do not use tobacco in any form and you will live a few years longer.

Fast once a month for three days or four days—or for whatever length of time you are able to go without food without harming yourself—and you will feel good. Did you not know that if you would stop eating pig and the food that you should not eat; stop eating three and four times a day and stop drinking whiskey, beer and wine, you would save much in the way of money?

In prolonging your life by abstaining from the pig, alcoholic drinks and tobacco, you, also, will be adding money to your savings of hundreds and thousands of dollars. You will be depriving those pig raisers and tobacco growers and alcoholic distilleries of millions of dollars that they rob you of which hasten you to your grave.

YOU COULD STOP the tobacco growers from growing that stinking weed, by turning away from the use of it. And you could stop the pig raising by not eating the stinking hog. These things are death to your children in their early ages. And, they even affect the reproductive organs of people in the early ages, as well as affect the heart, the lungs, and your sharpness in thinking. And, after all of this, you die a victim of poison and commercialization. Learn to eat to live.

(Text from “How To Eat To Live,” Book Two, 1972.)

In court, it causes heavy penalties and someone’s being sent to prison or to death for that of which they are innocent.

The greatest and gravest of all is the slavemasters’ hiding of the truth that will exalt and save his slave. This is that great truth that White America is hiding from her once-slaves (the Black man and woman). The White people know of and see the Salvation of their slaves that is now present. They are doing everything they possibly can to deceive the Black man and woman into thinking that they (White people) hold out greater and better promises for a future to the Black Man and woman in America than Allah (God). This will deceive many of our people. Read the 7th Surah (Chapter) of the Holy Qur’an where the devil is made to confess his deceiving of the people in these words: “Allah promised you the promise of truth. I promised you, but failed to fulfill.”

As you know, the Revelation of the Bible under the title of John, teaches us that the old dragon beast (referring to the White civilization) deceived the whole world, and they have done just that. Allah has taught me they deceived 90 per cent of the total population of the planet earth. The only way the White race can survive and rule is by making false appear as truth and truth to appear as false.

The White race was made by nature without the truth. Jesus said (Bible John 8:44) that there was no truth in them, for their father was a liar and a murderer. Therefore his children (White race) cannot be otherwise.

We should know the truth of the seriousness of the time that we are now living in. The truth will save our lives if we believe it.

America is at war with the darker people (Brown, Yellow, and every race regardless of color) today, but she refuses to tell you the truth of this war that is now taking many lives.

This is hiding the truth. What is she trying to get peace for? If these people’s losses are as great as the radio and other news media state, the enemy would be on his knees begging for peace. It seems as if it is now vice versa. This is hiding the truth.

Allah has said to me that America will not admit the truth of her losses until we see it on our heels. The Black Man of America never has put any confidence in anyone but his White slavemaster. Regardless of how ill-treated the Black Man may be, he still has hopes of his master telling him the truth.

The real truth is that America is under Divine Judgment to destroy her for the evils done to Allah’s people (the Black Man in America). Hiding the truth takes away confidence, trust, and love.

(Reprinted from “Our Saviour has Arrived,” 1974.)

The post The Hidden Truth appeared first on Final Call News.

One of the present realities, with which we all must deal, is the reality that even in 2017; most Black people still dislike themselves—to one degree or another. The larger picture, however, is that this self-hatred comes from the days of our physical bondage and the whole way in which White people taught, or reared, Black people. In making us to hate ourselves, and in fooling us into keeping this process up, they made us to hate our origin; ultimately God Himself.

To hate self is to hate God. True, this is changing, for the better. But this is still a fact—a crucial illness that must yet be dealt with. And many are. To hate self is to hate God. To hate God is to love the devil and evil. To love the devil involves bowing to his will, following his lead and practicing what he says we should do.

If one looks into the reality of the definition of the hatred of self, they find that self means nature. Our self is our essential nature. So to reject our original nature is to reject self as well as the origin of self—God Himself. This is an oversimplification that is nevertheless 100 percent true.

This is at the root of our disunity; the envy; the jealousy; the arrogance; the vanity; the foolish arguments we engage in 24 hours a day; our murder of each other, whether physically or through slander—which comes from the pathological hatred some unjustly have for others, and so on. Being stool pigeons for the wicked against one’s own people; drunkenness; dope addiction; wife beating and child abuse—all of this comes from self-hatred!

This is at the root of what holds us back as a people—self-hatred! Self-hatred opens us up to being further deceived by the wicked against our self-interest. This evil cuts at the root of what builds a strong Black nation, which is to love for your own Black Brother and Sister as you love yourself. But, this which is called the golden rule can’t be truly operational among us until we really understand who we are—in terms of our origin: Allah Himself!

As the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said in the Theology of Time series, “Who are you going to love after you hate yourself?” Who can we really love if we hate, or continue to hate ourselves?

Now, according to the scriptures, when God comes at the world’s end, He reveals Himself fully to one man. That man’s task is to make Him known to His people and to the world. For what? Ultimately to put those on top who were at the bottom. And He has come. He did not come to show off that He is God. He is not like that. Nor did He make His servant like that. (Nor did that servant make the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan like that.) His servant said He is already on top and He came to put us on top!

The very nature of his task has the effect of raising those who are in the worst condition to the top and at the same time it brings those who are at the top— by means of their wickedness—down, down, down. … However, they too can rise and be better if, and only if they accept the right principles.

God could not, and would not, use a proud man as the instrument, or channel, to and through whom He would reveal Himself. Among the several qualities He would require in the man He would choose to be the conduit of His Person, (wisdom, aims and purposes) humility would, of course, be prime among them. This special servant of His would possess this quality, and other qualities of the greatness of God’s nature, to a greater degree than any other human being anywhere. He would develop all of the qualities in His servant to their fullest potential. The manner or principles He used in this development is the way He raised His servant according to his nature.

This is one of the reasons God would have to personally visit and choose one from the Black men and women of America. We are the people who were put, for centuries, in the most humiliating position and condition imaginable. God would naturally have to choose one from the most crushed of all people on earth in order for Him to get that man who was potentially greater than everyone else. This man would also be the most humble of us all. From them the Christ (the Crusher of the wicked) would naturally come.

Of course, there were other factors in God’s choice of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. For example, he only had a fourth grade education. He learned just enough to be able to read and write, as he has said. This was so that this evil world cannot lay any claim in God’s preparedness of him. Thus this world cannot make any claims on God or express any rights to His kingdom. They cannot claim that they were responsible for his wisdom. Therefore, they have no claim on God’s new world.

Again, God came to a people reduced to nothing that He might do just as was written of Him; that He would bring into existence a new creation. This is that time. He is bringing in that which will be totally new through the most humiliated and humbled people who ever lived, the Black man and woman of America. We are called “no people” in the Bible.

All of the above leads to a chapter that I wrote in an unpublished book concerning the humble nature of a very powerful Blackman—the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.

This was the man of whom the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said to a few thousand Black people in Mosque Maryam that his Minister, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, was a very humble Brother. By the time he said this, 17 years had passed since the Honorable Elijah Muhammad first laid eyes on the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. By then, he knew his Minister well.

Naturally, our response to, or our attitude towards anyone, is rooted in our view of that person. If we disrespect or don’t like another, we will not regard them and what they say as we would another for whom we have greater respect. Likewise, the more we understand another, the easier it is to accept what they have to say—or, at least, it is easier to see things from their viewpoint, whether or not we agree with the contents of their view. Our self-concept may or may not interfere with a clear view of that person, their sayings and doings. It depends on how healthy our self-concept is. Humility is a quality which aids us in developing a balanced view of others. For instance, it keeps us from, or at least reduces rash assumptions about the other; their circumstances, and, in short, all those facts about others of which we really know little or nothing.

How do we see humble people? What do we feel about them? What are our definitions of this word? What comes up in our minds when we consider this term or quality? As a people we have not studied the qualities of good character, not to think of the qualities that composes the character or nature of God, which includes humility. We do not usually study the process by which good character grows. For example, just why is it that we often seem to learn better only after certain experiences—usually painful ones? What is really the root of the saying: experience is the best teacher? What is at the root of this seemingly universal factor in the growth of the human being?

“Certainly We sent Noah to his people, so he said:  O my people, serve Allah, you have no god other than Him.  Indeed I fear for you the chastisement of a grievous day.  The chiefs of his people said; Surely we see thee in clear error.  He said:  O my people, there is no error in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the worlds.  I deliver to you the messages of my Lord, and I offer you good advice, and I know from Allah what you know not.”—Holy Qur’an, Surah 7,  verses 59-62

One may ask, why am I sharing so much of my personal experiences growing up in Detroit, Michigan, prior to my coming to the path of Islam?  Nothing that ever happens to us in life from the time of our birth onward is ever without meaning and purpose.  Every fine detail must be studied seriously in shedding light on our reason for being.  We are all born with a Divine Purpose, and the scientists of our nation have studied us from a distance and close-up thousands of years in advance of our coming to birth and have recorded our histories in a book of writings in 25,000-year cycles. 

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad would tell us many times that everything about us is written in a book.  And as incredible as this may sound, none of us have been left out of these writings. We have been on an evolutionary journey since time immemorial.  Whatever comes in our lives, God already knows it before it comes to pass.  Our histories are written in the stars.  The Angels assist the Supreme Being, Whose Proper Name is Allah, who is the All Knowing.  The Angels are His Helpers throughout the entire Universe.  The Angels are informed about our life histories and are going about their work.  The Honorable Elijah Muhammad taught us that they keep a record of our everyday activities and are assigned to record our actions in a book of deeds that will literally be given to us at a particular moment in time.  These angels walk among and watch over every Believer and are centered mentally on the right and left side of our brain keeping an accurate account of our thoughts.   In this way, they are as close to us as our jugular vein.

Allah knows what every female brings forth and that which falls short of completion.  So in retracing my early childhood onward ‘til today, it may help all Believers to find their ultimate destinies in the Divine Plan of Almighty God, Allah, in His Divine Creation.  The Honorable Elijah Muhammad described to some of his secretaries and laborers in the 1960s that scientists would come from the East to gather the records we have made since our acceptance of Islam and would take them to the East.  He named the actual country or place which I am not able to state at this time.  Therefore, every Saviours’ Letter and Forms that we have written are so critically important that being careless with any of them could cause us to lose our lives.

Imagine that we have all been profiled and card indexed by Divine ever since we made our journey to Islam.  When we have this understanding, it will be shown to us in every detail.  There is no Mystery God, nor are His Divine Helpers a Mystery; they look like you and I, and some of us may have already been visited.  All the experiences that I am now sharing is to awaken us to a higher consciousness of their existence and their work among us. 

When I decided to share this experience with the Minister of Detroit, Temple No. 1 as it was called then (not mosque), named Minister Wilford X, following one of the temple meetings, he responded positively and was somewhat amazed and felt that I should share this experience with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.  He spoke about the work of the angels as taught by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and felt sincerely that I had made a genuine contact.

When I moved to Chicago in 1959 and had the opportunity to share this experience with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, to my surprise he also responded positively and was awaiting a contact message.  My last memory of this contact, following his first appearance in my school, was in a dream in which I viewed a large Spacecraft at my window.  He had previously told me that he was from another galaxy.  I simply can’t remember at this time the name of its location.

In the dream, which occurred in the night, while I was still living in my home in Detroit, there appeared at my window this large Craft.  As I peered inside, I saw a large spacious room and a side view of a person in close fitting dark apparel at the control panel.  It felt like I was literally inside the ship.  Suddenly and swiftly the ship then passed out of my sight.  I have often wondered since those days if I would ever see that person again.  In one of those last meetings, he stated that he would be seen again as one of those who were assigned to separate the people into groups.  As stated in the Divine Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, such persons called angels or messengers would be seen in the Final Judgment Hour standing on every other corner telling the people where to go.

He also stated that there are thousands of those individuals (angels or messengers) already in the country but could not be identified lest they be killed.  We must have Faith and remember that we are not alone.  Many of us may be lucky to be rescued when the time comes and be taken to quiet, peaceful places outside of the area designated for destruction.  Remember as it is written in the end of our 13 Paragraphs of Instructions from Master Fard Muhammad: “Big fields are awaiting for the wide awake man to workout.  Arise the dead by the thousands. The dead Nation must arise—for the Time is at hand. Look in your Poison Book.  Work cheerfully and fear not! You are the Righteous, the Best and the Powerful.”

“Do you wonder that a reminder has come to you from your Lord through a man from among you, that he may warn you and that you may guard against evil, and that mercy may be shown to you?  But they called him a liar, so We delivered him and those with him in the ark, and We drowned those who rejected Our messages. Surely they were a blind people.”—Holy Qur’an, Surah 7, verses 63-64

Bad food takes away even the beauty appearance of a person. God taught me that the swine (hog) takes away three one-hundredths percent of the beauty appearance of a person. This we can easily understand and see after we stop eating it. The medical scientists also will agree with us that the poisonous flesh of the hog will take away three one-hundredths percent of your beauty appearance.

There are some people who have eaten so much of this ugly, poisonous animal–and he is the ugliest and silliest- acting animal you have ever looked upon and been around, as well as the filthiest animal that you have ever dealt with–that they actually look like that animal. It is a divinely-prohibited flesh. It is a sin for you to eat it.

The enemy of God (the devil) teaches you to eat it, and he eats it himself to show you how little respect he has for God’s divine law against eating this prohibited flesh.

He drinks all of the intoxicating drinks, offers them to us, and then preaches the same gospel in the church that “Thou shall not eat the pig. Thou shall not drink intoxicating liquor. Thou shall not rob, steal, murder, commit adultery, gamble, hate, and lie to one another.” Yet, he is doing that hourly. Everything that God says “Thou shall not do” in the Ten Commandments given to Moses, they say thou shall do.

It was only a waste of God’s time to have given this race of evil people good guidance, because it is just as Jesus said in a parable, “The wicked husband who was given overlord of the earth and its people, never did offer the true owner any of the heir (a convert of righteousness).”

We have nothing to fear or worry about in the way of right guidance today, because we have God Himself in Person with us to lead and guide us in the way of truth and righteousness.

There is a lot of difference in the beauty of true Muslims and that of Christians. I do not mean to say that there are no beautiful Christians or Black people who eat the hog. But, there is a difference in their appearance of beauty that can easily be discovered by one who obeys this divinely-prohibited law against eating swine flesh. The poisonous hog flesh makes the color of many people’s eyes muddy and reddish in appearance and makes the people who eat it brazen, careless, easy to anger, fight, and oppose each other.

Eat the proper food as given in this book and eat at the proper time; one meal a day from 4 to 6 P.M.

No one is satisfied though they may be righteous. They are not satisfied because they are living among unrighteousness. So the whole entire world of the wicked and the righteous is upset due to dissatisfaction.

The dissatisfied are gaining everyday more and more among the people whom they hope to bring into the same condition that they are in. And today nothing is made so clear to the chiefmaker of dissatisfaction.

The Black people in North America, who are up from slavery, are the target of the White slave-masters’ children who wish to keep them here and deprived of their salvation, if possible. The White man holds out promises to the Black man only to deceive the Black man. The White man fascinates the Black man and tries to do that for the Black man that the White man does not want to do. But nevertheless, he does these things in order to get his hold on the Black once—slave; to go to the White man’s doom with him. The devil is the open enemy of the original Black people of the earth.

Temptation—The White man is trying to tempt the Black man all over the earth to take part with the White man in evil and filth. Here in America, if you will bear me witness, sex talk is the topic of conversation twenty-four hours a day on the radio and the television. These public broadcasts to the people contain some of the most filthy talk and some of the most filthy actions on the screen than we ever dreamed of hearing from a neighbor even in private … not to think of in public.

The Black man in America is on the radio twenty-four hours a day. The White man loves to weigh the Black People out in his filthy language of sex to see how many of our Black People he can get to go to hell with the White man by persuading them with his sexual talk. The Holy Qur’an is 100 percent right. Read it, and try and find something in there that is not true.  If you think that you have found something come to me and I will show you and the world that it is true.

Black man, this is the end of the rule of the White man. Allah (God) came to Kill them for mistreating the Black once-slave here in America. Allah (God) says in Isaiah (Bible) that He will kill our enemy and call us by another Name. Black Brother, this is going on right in your eyes, but you still think that the time is prolonged to the distant future and that you will not live to see it. But, I say to you all, in truth, that you are living in it now.

The scientists of America know that America is on her way out. And since you, Black man, are the righteous, perhaps all of you will be saved; for you are bound to submit when you see what is coming. Allah (God) will take you and me and call us after His own name. As I have preached to you for years, as long as we go in the name of the White man we are his people to serve him and to go to his doom with him.

The White man is stripping you of decent clothes to wear. Many of you come out in the public one-half nude. He is making you shameless. You are doing something that you did not know you would ever be able to do. But, it is in you, that you would like to obey the devil and not obey Allah (God), the God of righteousness, truth, freedom, justice and equality. It is so shameful for you to sit and let your voices be heard on the radio and television answering the filthy questions that the White man is asking concerning your own personal self and the way that you think.

The White man is only trying to choose you to go to hell with him. That White man knows that there is no heaven for him. There will be a remnant of them saved, but the majority are going down and they are taking a fighting chance of it in the way of deceiving you to go along with them. That is the reason both Books, the Bible and the Holy Qur’an, teach us not to let the archdeceiver deceive us.

But the devil is doing it night and day. Why do you think he has these twenty-four hour talk shows talking among you and with you, if it is not to get you to agree with them so that you will go along with them to their doom?

Certainly they hate me and the Muslims who follow me. But their hatred does not make any difference with us, just as long as Allah (God) does not hate us. Their hatred goes for nothing if Allah (God) is not hating us. As it is written, “He whom Allah Befriends is not disgraced.” Allah (God) has always backed up His people, who are of the righteous and who believe in Him from ancient time, until this day.

Fear not. Lift up your heads in the pride of truth and love for you Black man and the God of the Black man.

The dissatisfied must be removed from the satisfied of Allah (God) and His people of righteousness. The lost-found Black aboriginal people in America have the greatest gift coming to them of any people who lived in the past. They will have a new growth put into them and they will be changed in the twinkling of an eye, as it is written in the Bible and in the Holy Qur’an. This change will take place after Satan has been conquered and cast out of the earth from among the aboriginal Black people to whom the White man is no kin.

(Text from “The Fall of America,” 1973.)

“And your Lord says: ‘Pray to Me, I will answer you. Those who disdain My service will surely enter hell, abased.’ ”   -Holy Qur’an 40:60

What the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan speaks and acts from and urges all to acquire is certain knowledge, not theories. He teaches what he does from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, who received what he did from God, Himself.

Theories are like conjectures, opinions, speculations, assumptions, presumptions, beliefs, suppositions and guesses. None of these will ultimately help the Original and poor people of the world up out of their condition of ignorance, illness, misery and poverty.

Only supreme truth today will resolve the problems of humanity. That supreme wisdom was brought to America and taught to the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Furthermore, Minister Farrakhan was divinely made to carry on this divine message throughout the world.

Certainly, this sounds bombastic, childish, crazy, overly simplistic, naive and unsophisticated in the extreme. However, that is what the scriptures say would be said of this truth.

But billions believe that at the end of this wicked world that God is to come and take over the rule of this world and destroy it. This will happen after He first gives everyone the opportunity to accept or reject His truth that He revealed to a special servant of His. The nature of the weather is a major factor forcing the realization of the Presence of God on an increasing number of people.

In a little magazine of some of his articles that was published in 1956, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad stated that Master Fard Muhammad alone taught him, and that He continues to reveal His truth to him, “although to some it is unbelievable; but search your Scriptures and you will find that they verify that which you read in this book–that which Allah (God) has revealed to me.” We can read his words in his books obtainable from The Final Call.

Now, when we say this verifies that, we are saying that what is doing the work of the verification is not necessarily dependent on that which verifies. This is not the general use of the word “verify.” However, when distinguished from its synonyms, verify implies: “The established correspondence of the actual facts or details to those that are given in an account or statement. When what is in question is a suspicion, a fear or a probability, it can be verified only in the result, event or fulfillment.” This definition, of the special implication of the word verify, is from Webster’s New Dictionary of Synonyms.

The God today verified the words of the prophets with His servant and by fulfilling them in our faces.

Certainly, many have said and written that they don’t like what Minister Farrakhan teaches. But they have not and cannot prove it to be false. When they try to explain these teachings, they must use outright lies or words that camouflage their dislike for God’s truths and the defective reasoning. When forced to explain the basis upon which they stand, in their attempt to refute Minister Farrakhan’s presentation of God’s truths from His Messiah, they cannot. Why? A lie can only be told, not explained!

“Such then is Allah, your true Lord. And what is there after the truth but error? How then are you turned away!” (Holy Qur’an10:32)

“Many of the people of the Book wish that they could turn you back into disbelievers after you have believed, out of envy from themselves, after truth has become manifest to them. But pardon and forgive, till Allah bring about His command. Surely Allah is Possessor of power over all things.” (Holy Qur’an 2:109)

What brings on the darkness that just precedes or introduces the darkest hour? Is it envy?

Surah 113:3 of the Holy Qur’an refers to this dark period as “the evil of intense darkness.” In this dark time, evil people will cast “evil suggestions in firm resolutions” as they never have before then. So will envy.

Minister Farrakhan’s Study Guide Number 13 teaches us to make Allah the center of our lives in this ever darkening time and for us to seek refuge in the Lord of men, the King of men, the God of men, “from the evil of the whisperings of the slinking (devil), who whispers into the hearts of men, from among the jinn and the men.” (Holy Qur’an 113)

Minister Farrakhan is, as many of us refer to him, a divine reminder. He is a divine reminder of divine warnings, such as the following prophecy of Jesus.

At that time, the kingdom of heaven will be like 10 virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. The foolish ones took their lamps, but did not take any oil with them. The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps.

The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. At midnight, the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’

“‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

“But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

“Later the others also came. ‘Sir! Sir!’ they said. ‘Open the door for us!’ But he replied, ‘I tell you the truth, I don’t know you.’

“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.” (Matthew 25:1-13)

The Amplified Bible verse 13 reads: “Watch therefore [give strict attention and be cautious and active], for you know neither the day nor the hour when the Son of Man will come.”

The Holy Qur’an has the following in it, which reminds me of the above passage of Matthew: “On that day thou wilt see the faithful men and the faithful women, their light gleaming before them and on their right hand. Good news for you this day!–Gardens wherein rivers flow, to abide therein! That is the grand achievement.

“On the day when the hypocrites, men and women, will say to those who believe: ‘Wait for us, that we may borrow from your light. It will be said: Turn back and seek a light. Then a wall, with a door in it, will be raised between them. Within it shall be mercy, and outside of its chastisement.

“They will cry out to them: Were we not with you? They will say: Yea, but you caused yourselves to fall into temptation, and you waited and doubted, and vain desires deceived you, till the threatened punishment of Allah came, and the arch-deceiver deceived you about Allah.” (57: 12-14)

Remember, Moses asked Allah to provide him with his brother, and for Allah to “send him with me as a helper to confirm me.” (Holy Qur’an 30:34)

Confirm “usually implies the removing of all doubts, as by an authoritative statement or by indisputable facts.”

Remember, among other facts, Minister Farrakhan heard his teacher’s voice in a manner that confirmed that he is physically alive!

More, next issue, Allah willing.
