Book of Judgement Chapter 12<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1. O man, remember thy Creator and praise Him. In this, thou art graded by thy God.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Who see not Him, are weak in spirit; who see Him in all things, and hear His voice in
\nthe leaves, and in every herb, are strong in spirit.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. These are the grades of the resurrection of the souls of men.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. For what is the earth but a foaling nest, and the possessions of the earth but chains of
\nbondage.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. My heavens rest upon the earth; the place of the es’yan is in my keeping. And the
\nplaces of the grades of my heavens have I adjusted, according to the inhabitants thereof.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. I people the heavens of the earth with the spirits of the dead; according to their grade in
\ntheir corporeal lives, so do I arrange them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. To provide them unto everlasting resurrection, and make them to rejoice in their being.<\/span>
\nThese are the labors of thy God.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. For the beasts of the field and the birds and fowls of the air, and for many animals that
\nare companions to man, made I a place in heaven, where their spirits should survive for a
\nseason.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. And this animal heaven I graded, one, in the order of my heavens.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. For I saw that man on the earth had delight in them; and I provided unto him for his
\nes’yan period, that he might rejoice in remembrance of finding his loves.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. And I made the animal heaven to rest on the face of the lands of the earth even the
\nsame as the place of the es’yan in grade one.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. Remember, O man, thy Creator gave to every animal a season on the earth; but He
\nlimited them to a time to become extinct. Even so, and of like duration made I a heavenly
\nperiod for the spirits of animals companionable to man.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. But for man I provided heavens above, where he should rise as to place, even as he
\nriseth, as to goodness and knowledge.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

14. Magnify thy perception, O man, that thou mayst comprehend the kingdoms of thy
\nGod. Behold the example thy Creator sat before thee in the fashion of the earth.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

15. In large bodies, He placed the lands; in large bodies, He placed the oceans. Not in
\nlittle hillocks of land and little puddles of water.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

16.Even larger than these are the divisions (plateaux) of the heavens of thy God; the
\nheavens of the earth are separated by atmospherean oceans.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

17. I fill not the air of the firmament with angels scattered about; but I give unto them
\nregions habitable and home-like. And I grade them suitable to the resurrection of the
\nspirits of the dead.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

18. Consider the work of thy Creator, and the knowledge and symbols He placeth
\nbefore thee. Thou holdest up a lump of salt, and it is solid and of dimensions; but
\ncast it into water, and it is seen not, but dissolved and lost as to thy perception.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

19. And thou beholdest the earth, which hath dimensions also; but the ethe, thou seest
\nnot. As water is to salt the solvent, so is ethe to corporeal things the solvent. By slow
\nvelocity holdeth the solid earth its form; yet, in ethe, external to the body of the earth, the
\nswift velocity of corpor is magnified into dissolution. By vortices in ethe are these things
\naccomplished.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

20. In the atmosphere of the earth, there is sufficient corpor to make many worlds like this
\nhabitable earth. And this corpor, which is in solution (as to a mortal’s eyes), floateth in the
\nfirmament of the earth, in continents wide as the earth, and deep as the earth; and there
\nare thousands of them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

21. And yet, O man, these are but the atmospherean heavens. These are the dominions
\ngiven into the keeping of thy God. These are my kingdoms and my heavens for a season.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

22. As thou, O man of the earth, sailest thy ships abroad over the ocean, and coming to a
\nnew land, going ashore, dost settle thy people thereon, and it becometh a new kingdom,
\neven so doth thy God in the heavens of the earth, in the plateaux of this vortex.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

23. Remember the magnitude of thy Creator’s works and the symbols He sat before thee:
\nWhere the clouds float high, it raineth not; where they drag on the face of the earth, it
\nraineth daily.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

24. Consider the habitations of the resurrections of the dead which are in the keeping of
\nthy God.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>25. Even as to the square of the distance away from the earth, so are the grades of my
\nresurrections.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

26. According to the exaltation of man’s soul, so shall he inhabit the places I have made.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

27. According to his own soul’s growth and development, so shall he ascend in
\nmy kingdoms, outward away from the earth; grade unto grade adapted I them.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
