Book of Judgement Chapter 36<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

GOD SHOWETH HOW HE HATH WROUGHT.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. God saith: Behold, the work of my hand, O man: As thou findest an old house, no
\nlonger habitable, thou sendest workmen to pull it down, and then, thou sendest laborers to
\nclear away the rubbish.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. And, afterward, thou bringest builders, and they lay a new foundation, larger and
\nbroader than the old one, and, thereon, they build thee a new edifice, adapted with new
\nimprovements unto the increase and requirements of thy family.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Even so, hath thy God labored, for hundreds of years, to prepare unto the generations
\nof this day.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. For I saw, beforehand, that man would circumscribe the earth, and that all the nations
\nand peoples thereof would become known to one another.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. And I beheld also, that, in the coming time, which is now at hand, the old edifices
\nof doctrines and creeds and religions, as of the Brahmins, Buddhists, Jews,
\nKa’yuans, Kriste’yans and Mohammedans would not fulfill the requirements of man.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. And now, behold, O man, the wisdom of Jehovih previously: He had permitted
\ncorruptions and contradictions to creep into the sacred books of all of the said
\ngreat religions, purposely and with design, so as to make easy the work of thy God.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. And when I saw that the coming together of nations and peoples would require
\na new religious edifice, I perceived, also, that the old ones must be cleared away.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>8. And, behold, I, thy God, went to work systematically, inspiring man to accomplish
\neven what man hath accomplished.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. I raised up scholars and infidels against these religions; inspiring them to
\nattack the corruptions and contradictions in the sacred books of all these peoples.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. And, in the same time, that I sent infidels against the Jewish bible, I sent infidels
\nagainst the Hindoo bibles, and against the doctrines of Brahma and Budha and Ka’yu, and
\nagainst the Kriste’yans and Mohammedans.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. And I made the beginning of the work of these infidels and scholars to correspond
\nwith the discovery of Guatama by Columbo, and I kept them at their work for
\nthree hundred years, which was up to the time of the establishment of the republic of
\nGuatama, which I, thy God, provided to be untrammeled by an established religion.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. After my workmen, the scholars and infidels, had thus undermined the old edifice,
\nbehold, I sent laborers, under the name of merchants and traders, to commence clearing
\naway the rubbish.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. And, because of their desires in money-getting, they considered not the religious
\nedifice of any people, and they provided comity relations withersoever they went.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

14. For a hundred years, these, my laborers, have been at their work, stripping
\noff and clearing away the prejudice of nations and peoples against one another.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

15. And then, behold, I came with my builders, and I prepared a new foundation, broader
\nand wider and firmer, for an edifice adapted to all the nations and peoples in the world.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

16. First, I sent my miracle-workers forth into every quarter, saying unto them:
\nWhatsoever was done by the ancient Gods and Saviors, do ye even so, and greater. For I
\nwill show, unto all the world, that no man nor God is worthy to be worshipped because of
\nmiracles.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

17. And they went forth at my command, and my angels went with them, doing wonders.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

18. They healed the sick, by the laying on of hands; they restored the blind to sight, and
\nmade the deaf to hear, and have brought the supposed dead to life.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

19. They have caused writing to come on stone tablets, and on paper, in the light of day,
\nby unseen hands.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

20. They have caused ponderous bodies, without mortal contact to move, and to beat time
\nto music.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

21. A child hath lifted eight full-grown men with her little finger.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

22. They have passed full-blown flowers and plants through boards and tables, unbruised
\nand uninjured, and, yet, there was neither hole, nor opening in the boards and tables.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

23. They have made stars of light that spake with audible voices; they have made pillars
\nof fire by night, and pillars of cloud by day.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

24. They have caused the spirits of the dead to appear as if in flesh and blood; and whilst
\nthus appearing, talking face to face with their mortal kin, who saw them, heard them, and,
\nby the subject of the discourse, proved them to be the very angels of heaven returned to
\ntheir earth-kin and friends.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

25. For the time of one generation thy God hath thus kept open the gates of heaven;
\nworking through mortals, by the angels of heaven.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

26. My testimony and my witnesses are hundreds of thousands. I hide not the work of my
\nhand and of my angels in a corner; I extend them abroad over the earth; I manifest in the
\ncities and country places; I prove unto all peoples, that common men and women can do<\/span>
\nthe miracles for which Gods and Saviors have been worshipped.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

27. Yea, I give these powers unto good and bad men, and unto good and bad women.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

28. For I show miracles in order to break down the worship of miracle-workers.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

29. For I will have none worshipped but Jehovih. And I have inspired angels to this end,
\nand to the end that good works and wisdom shall be, henceforth, the means of
\nresurrection in heaven.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

30. And I have shown also, that only by harmony and the union of many, can any great
\ngood come unto the generations of men.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
