Chapter I, Chapter II<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">GOD OF THE SECOND CYCLE AFTER MAN\u2019S CREATION.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Chapter 1<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">1. When God and his Lords of heaven and earth had lost their heavenly dominion, the<br \/>\nswift messengers, that constantly ply through the atmospherean and etherean worlds, bore<br \/>\nthe report to Jehovih&#8217;s kingdom in etherea.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">2. The earth had passed the ji&#8217;ayan eddies at Shrapah, in the etherean roadway Hi-abalk&#8217;yiv, and was heading for the eastern fields of Anakaron, having entered the dan&#8217;haian arches of Vehetaivi, where lay the great kingdoms of the Orian Chief, Hieu Wee, with his<br \/>\nmillions of Gods and Goddesses and high-raised ethereans.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">3. Before Hieu Wee, came the swift messengers, fresh from the heavens of the earth, with<br \/>\ntheir pitiful tales of woe that had befallen the inhabitants thereof.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">4. Hieu Wee said: I behold the red star, the earth, O Jehovih! I have heard the tale of<br \/>\nhorror. What shall be done, O Father?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">5. Then spake Jehovih, saying: Call thy tributary Chief, Ah&#8217;shong. Let him hear the will<br \/>\nof Jehovih!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">6. Then sent Hieu Wee for Ah&#8217;shong, who had dominion over the fields of Anakaron in<br \/>\netherea, through which lay the roadway where the earth was to travel for three thousand<br \/>\nyears.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">7. And when Ah&#8217;shong came before the Holy Council of Hieu Wee&#8217;s million Gods and<br \/>\nGoddesses, the All Light fell upon the throne like a sun; and the voice of the Creator<br \/>\nspake in the midst of the light, saying:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">8. Hieu Wee, My son! and Hieu Wee answered: Here am I, Thy servant, O Jehovih!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">9. Jehovih said: Behold the red star, the earth; she entereth the fields of Anakaron. She is<br \/>\ndripping wet and cold in the ji&#8217;ayan eddies. Her God and Lords are powerless in the spell<br \/>\nof darkness. Send thou thy son, Ah&#8217;shong, to deliver the earth and her heavens. For<br \/>\nbehold, I will bring them to his door.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">10. Then spake Ah&#8217;shong, saying: Thy will be done, O Jehovih. Though I have been long<br \/>\nhonored in etherea, with many etherean worlds to command, I have not as yet redeemed<br \/>\none corporeal world and her heavens from a time of darkness.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">11. Jehovih said: Go then, My Son, to the laboring earth and deliver her; but first appoint<br \/>\nthou a successor for Anakaron.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">12. Then spake Hieu Wee, who was older than the red star, who had seen many corporeal<br \/>\nworlds created; had seen them run their course, and then disappear as such. He said to<br \/>\nAh&#8217;shong:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">13. Send thou to Wan, and to Hivigat, in etherea, and get the history of the earth and her<br \/>\nheaven; and obtain thou also an account of her harvests of Brides and Bridegrooms to<br \/>\nJehovih. And thou shalt call from my realms as many million etherean angels as thy labor<br \/>\nmay require, and with them proceed to the earth, and thou shalt have a line of swift<br \/>\nmessengers established betwixt this place and thine, and, by the power of Jehovih, I will<br \/>\nanswer thy prayers in whatsoever thou shalt need.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">14. Then Ah&#8217;shong went back to Anakaron, his etherean kingdom, and before his Holy<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"fontstyle0\">Council made known Jehovih&#8217;s will and his. And Ah&#8217;shong called for sixty million<br \/>\nvolunteers, to go with him on his mission; and they came presently: Some from Yohan;<br \/>\nsome from T&#8217;seing; some from Araith; some from Gon Loo, and from various<br \/>\nother places in Anakaron; came in millions; came as many as Ah&#8217;shong called for.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">15. So Ah&#8217;shong raised up a successor to Jehovih&#8217;s throne in Anakaron, and he<br \/>\nwas installed and crowned according to the discipline of the etherean heavens.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">16. And Ah&#8217;shong sent swift messengers into the former roadway of the earth to obtain its<br \/>\nhistory; its harvests of Brides and Bridegrooms.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">17. Then gazed Ah&#8217;shong toward the red star; and his sixty million volunteers also<br \/>\ngazed, and watched her as she coursed along in the arches of Vehetaivi.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">18. Thus Ah&#8217;shong, well skilled in the course and behavior of worlds, gathered together<br \/>\nhis millions of angels, trained in arduous enterprise and furtherance of Jehovih&#8217;s will.<br \/>\nQuickly they framed and equipped an Orian port-au-gon, and illuminated it with firelights and bolts.<br \/>\nAnd these sons and daughters of Jehovih embarked and sped forth. A half a million miles, even on<br \/>\nthe outskirts of Anakaron, and they stood close above the earth, almost so near that the sweeping<br \/>\nmoon would touch the down-hanging curtains of etherean fire. And here they halted, that both<br \/>\nmortals and angels belonging to the earth might behold and fear; for such Jehovih made man,<br \/>\nby unusual sights, to become weak and trembling, to change him to new purposes.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">19. Jehovih&#8217;s voice spake to Ah&#8217;shong, saying: For three days and nights stand thou in the<br \/>\nfirmament that man on earth and in atmospherea may behold the power and majesty of<br \/>\nMy chosen in heaven.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">20. Ah&#8217;shong said: On the fourth day, O Jehovih, I will cross Chinvat; on the fifth,<br \/>\ndescend toward the earth. Bring me, O Father, Thy messengers from the lower heaven. I<br \/>\nwill converse with them.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">21. Jehovih sent the angels of the earth and lower heaven up to Ah&#8217;shong; disheartened<br \/>\nthey came, to know Jehovih&#8217;s will.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">22. Ah&#8217;shong said unto them: The Father&#8217;s hosts are come from their high estate and<br \/>\nglorious ease, to redeem these fallen heavens, and man on the earth. It is our labor to<br \/>\ncome in love to the helpless, and teach them how to sing in Jehovih&#8217;s praise. Then the<br \/>\nswift messengers answered:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">23. In the All Person&#8217;s boundless love, find thou recompense for thy holy words, most<br \/>\nhonored God. Down in darkness, long and earnestly, have the Lords of earth labored<br \/>\nconjointly with heaven&#8217;s God, whose kingdom fell. Alas, our God, who ministered over<br \/>\nthe lower heaven, is crushed and humiliated. The enemies of high heaven, exulting<br \/>\nin their spoil of Jehovih&#8217;s kingdom and His name, mock us, saying: Where now is<br \/>\nJehovih? Whence cometh the Higher Light? O ye Faithists in an All Person boundless!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">24. But now thy high-shining sun, thy ship of etherean fire, maketh the sons<br \/>\nand daughters of the earth and her heaven look, and fear, and tremble. And<br \/>\nwhen thy Light appeared we made all haste in hope of succor. Our souls are more<br \/>\nthan filled with thankfulness; and in Jehovih&#8217;s name, we will back and employ a<br \/>\nmillion trumpeters to proclaim around the earth and heaven: J<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">EHOVIH IS COME<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">!<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">25. After due salutation the swift messengers departed; and Ah&#8217;shong made all things in<br \/>\nreadiness for his descent when the proper time should arrive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-928\" src=\"http:\/\/religionoflight.org\/ns\/lightofgod\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/01\/Plate-2-Book-of-Ahshong-118x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"118\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/religionoflight.org\/ns\/lightofgod\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/01\/Plate-2-Book-of-Ahshong-118x300.jpg 118w, http:\/\/religionoflight.org\/ns\/lightofgod\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/01\/Plate-2-Book-of-Ahshong-106x270.jpg 106w, http:\/\/religionoflight.org\/ns\/lightofgod\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2020\/01\/Plate-2-Book-of-Ahshong.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 118px) 100vw, 118px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Plate 2.<br \/>\nEthereans visiting the Earth.<br \/>\nA, Atmospherea; B, Ethereans; E, Earth;<br \/>\nC, Distance: 20,000 miles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Chapter 2<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">1. Jehovih spake to Ah&#8217;shong, saying: On the evening of the third day shalt thou move thy<br \/>\netherean ship toward the earth. And when thou arrivest within an arrafon thou shalt halt<br \/>\nfor another three days, that thy magnificence may awe the men and angels of earth with<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"fontstyle0\">the power and glory of My emancipated sons and daughters.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">2. Ah&#8217;shong proceeded as commanded, and when he came within an arrafon, halted for<br \/>\nthree days, and the magnificence of the scene overcame the stubbornness of men of earth<br \/>\nand angels in atmospherea. Again Jehovih said:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">3. Proceed again, My son, and when thou art within half the breadth of the earth, halt<br \/>\nonce more and make in the place thereof a plateau, and it shall be the place of thy abiding<br \/>\nfor the time of dawn, which shall be seven years and sixty days.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">4. And from this time forth My etherean hosts shall not remain in atmospherea more than<br \/>\neight years in any one cycle. This, then, that I give to thee shall be like every dawn of dan,<br \/>\nsome of one year, some of two or three or four or more (years), as the time requireth.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">5. And thou shalt dwell in thy kingdom seven years and sixty days, and the time shall be<br \/>\ncalled the first dawn of dan, and the next succeeding shall be called the second dawn of<br \/>\ndan, and so on, as long as the earth bringeth forth.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">6. And the time from one dawn of dan to another shall be called one dan&#8217;ha; and four<br \/>\ndan&#8217;ha shall be called one square, because this is the sum of one density, which is twelve<br \/>\nthousand of the earth&#8217;s years. And twelve squares shall be called one cube, which is the<br \/>\nfirst dividend of the third space, in which there is no variation in the vortex of the earth.<br \/>\nAnd four cubes shall be called one sum, because the magnitude thereof embraceth one<br \/>\nequal of the Great Serpent.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">7. Ah&#8217;shong proceeded again, and moved within four thousand miles of the earth, and the<br \/>\nvoice of Jehovih commanded Ah&#8217;shong to halt in the place, and found a new kingdom,<br \/>\nusing all things requisite to that end. Jehovih said:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">8. Thy place shall be a distance away from the earth, that thy dominion be not disturbed<br \/>\nby the confusion of the fallen angels thereof. So also, to as many as thou shalt redeem<br \/>\naway from the earth and from mortal contact, the distance of thy kingdom will prevent<br \/>\nthem returning.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">9. Ah&#8217;shong perceived, and he proclaimed what Jehovih had spoken to him. And the hosts<br \/>\ncast out fastenings to the plateau, that the kingdom together with the etherean sea of fire<br \/>\nmight rotate with the earth and its atmosphere. Jehovih said:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">10. Make strong the foundation of thy place, and erect ten thousand pillars of fire around<br \/>\nabout; and in every direction provide roadways and mansions; but in the midst thou shalt<br \/>\nbuild the house of council, wherein shall sit thy host of dominion during dawn.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">11. Ah&#8217;shong built the place as commanded by Jehovih, and when it was finished,<br \/>\nJehovih said: Thou shalt call the place Yeshuah. And it was so called, because it was a<br \/>\nplace of salvation. Again Jehovih said:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">12. Choose now thy council, My Son, and also thy sub-officers, and when thou hast<br \/>\ncompleted the list, leave in Yeshuah the sub-officers and proceed thou, and thy council of<br \/>\none million men and women with thee, down to the earth and heaven thereof, and cast<br \/>\nthine eyes upon the inhabitants, for they are in distress. And when thou comest to the<br \/>\nplace of My Lords and My God, deliver thou them and bring them to Yeshuah, for they<br \/>\nneed rest. And as many of the I&#8217;hins in heaven as are capable, bring thou also away with<br \/>\nthee, and give them into the care of thy people.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">13. Ah&#8217;shong did as commanded, first selecting his council and his officers, and then he<br \/>\nand his hosts proceeded to the earth as had been commanded.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Holy Memorial Day Book of Ah\u2019shong, Son of Jehovih.
