God’s Book of Eskra Chapter 55

CHAPTER 55
GOD CONTINUETH HIS CHASTISEMENT AGAINST THE FOUR FALSE GODS.
1. God said: In the name of Jehovih, wherein shall I find an excuse for your behavior?

2. When my angels taught man how to make a capstan and a screw and a telescope and a
compass, behold, your emissaries inspired my chosen to be tortured, or put to death.

3. When my angels inspired man to comprehend and announce the glory of the stars and
planets, ye put my chosen to death; through your vindictive angels against Jehovih were
these things accomplished.

4. When my angels taught man by inspiration that the earth was round instead of flat, ye
sent spirits of darkness to inspire the death of my philosophers.

5. Because, forsooth, my inspiration agreed not with the sacred books which ye
compounded for your own glory.

6. Yea, ye palmed off your compilations from other false Gods as being Jehovih’s; and ye
played upon the honest innocence of man’s understanding, contrary to the will of the
Almighty.

7. Ye have holden your sacred books up, and said: Here is the ultimate; beyond this, no
man shall go!

8. And ye knew, the while, that any fixed revelation could not be true, because all the
universe is in constant progress.


9. Ye have holden up your own sacred books, and said: Here are rules and a sure guide to
reach the all highest heavens!

10. Knowing the while that your heavens were the lowest of the bound heavens of the
earth.

11. Now, behold, the same rules apply unto you as to the least of Jehovih’s children;
which are, that whoso setteth up a mark, with himself as the highest, and he, the
interpreter thereof, is already on the downward grade.

12. And whoso seeketh to glorify himself by his kingdoms, or by the magnificence of his
possessions, taketh a burden upon his shoulders, that will, soon or late, fall upon him, and
crush him.

13. And whoso fortifieth himself by armies, whether in the heavens or on the earth,
bindeth himself therewith for his ultimate sorrow.

14. And whoso turneth away from Jehovih, and saith: I will go not after Him, nor search
to find Him more; but I will build unto myself, planneth an edifice that will tumble down
upon him in time to come.
