Seventh-Day Sabbath, 3rd Quarter Moon
The Lord’s Third Book. Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3
EING COTEMPORANEOUS WITH THE BOOK OF APOLLO, SON OF JEHOVIH. AS THE LATTER
BOOK IS OF HEAVEN, SO IS THE LORDS’ BOOK OF EARTH, FOR THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME.
Chapter 1
1. In the time of heaven known as the arc of Rupta and Mos, the Lord descended to the
earth in a sea of fire, to the land of Guatama.
2. And the Lord spake over the land and over the waters, calling and speaking: Where
are the I’hins, the chosen of the Lord? Speak, O man; come forth at the call of thy God.
3. Then spake man, answering to the call of God, saying:
4. More than a million; more than two, more than four millions, are thy people, O Lord!
5. The Lord inquired: Where are my people? Where is the place and boundary of the
sacred people, the I’hins, whom I delivered in the time of the flood?
6. And man answered, saying: From the head of the Ca’ca’tsak, the mountain river of
rivers (Amazon). In Thes’onka, wide as the ocean, and the mountain plains of Om
(Mexico). To the great cities of O’wan’gache and Nathon; and Neshesh, and
Tesumethgad, and Naphal; and Yeshuah, by the Lake Owane (Nicaragua), here standeth
the tower of Rakowana, shining with copper and silver and gold. And by the river Raxaa
and her lake, Jon’gan. And over the plains of Go’magat (crescent) and Takshan, where
they build great boats with sails of cloth, and beams across. And to the north land of
Uphsic and E’chaung, where beginneth the still river Eph’su (a canal), running to the wide
oceans, Vid and Sajins (Lakes Superior and Michigan), where the I’huans dig deep down
and bring copper and silver and lead in boats to the King of Avaya, I’huan monarch and
good protector.
7. The Lord said: The greatest place of all thou has not named. Thine eyes have not seen,
thine ears heard not. Search, therefore, and be wise. Man said:
8. I was ashamed before God, so I set out to get great learning to know of what the Lord
spake. And I traveled one year to the north, and many moons to the south and east. And I
found a rab-bah of great learning, both in books and spoken words; and not a few
prophets of the Lord in the great cities. So I inquired, saying: Which is the greatest place
of the Lord’s chosen? And, lo and behold, they answered even as I had answered the Lord.
Then I came to the city of Ta’zuntqua, a place for the yearly dance in the valley of On-outsi, where the rab’bah’s temple is covered with copper, polished; and I asked the same question. For the che’ba within me desired to make a record of all things valuable; but,
alas, I got no other answer than the echo of my own words.
9. God said: Where are my chosen? Where is the greatest place of the I’hins? Thou hast
shown me the I’huans, their great cities and kingdoms; their places of great learning. But
the greatest of all, thou hast not shown.
10. Man answered: I know not, O Lord. Speak thou?
11. The Lord said: In amongst the I’huans are the I’hins, the little sacred people. The little
cities in the suburbs of the large cities of the I’huans, these are the greatest cities.
12. Man inquired of God: How can that be? Behold, the I’huans are three to one,
compared to the I’hins!
13. The Lord said: These that build temples of hewn stone, and cover them with polished
copper, are not my people. These warrior kings, that fortify their cities with soldiers, are
not my people. They are not great.
14. But these are my chosen, that live in mounds, and in cities with wooden walls, and
clay walls. They are the greatest of all people. They dress not in gaudy colors, nor
ornament themselves with copper and silver and gold.
15. They are the people of learning. They survey the way for the canals; they find the
square and the arch; they lead the I’huan to the mines, where lead and copper and silver
are buried. These are a great people.
16. Without them the I’huan could not build his own house; he could not find the level
for a canal; nor provide the square of his temple. The I’hins are the greatest people.
17. My chosen have shapely legs and arms, and feet and hands; and their hair groweth
long and straight, white and yellow.
18. The Lord said: Because the I’huan is of all shapes and sizes; and of all grades and
judgment, even down to the ignorance of a beast, behold, he is bringing forth heirs of
darkness.
19. Come unto the Lord, O ye that are chosen. Ye have built houses and temples for the
I’huans, but of what avail are these things?
20. Behold, they are at war, tribe against tribe, nation against nation. They no longer
hearken to my rab’bahs, the priests of my chosen.
21. Go to, now, ye shall build temples unto God.
22. Then the I’hins inquired the meaning of the word of God.
23. The Lord said: Long have I prophesied through my chosen, the I’hins. Now will I raise
up prophets amongst the I’huans, the copper-colored race.
24. This is the temple ye shall build unto the Great Spirit and His kingdoms in haden.
25. Two peoples there are before my judgment, saith the Lord: The one that heareth not
the voice of God, nor knoweth him; but the other people know me, and endeavor to obey
my commandments.
26. And God was weary with laboring for the I’huans; for they went more after the way of
darkness than light.
27. And the Lord called hence his guardian angels, leaving the I’huans alone for a season.
And spirits of darkness came upon them and obsessed them.
28. And in that same time the Lord caused his chosen to display the mold of their thighs,
and their short shapely arms. And the I’huans tempted them, contrary to law. So, it came
to pass, that the I’huan women boasted of their conquests, bringing forth heirs of more
shapeliness.
29. Now, in course of time, these heirs grew to be men and women; and, behold, they
had the gift of prophecy, and of seeing visions and of hearing the voice of the
angels of heaven. And they were called Ongwee-ghan, signifying, good shaped men.
.
Chapter 2
1. God said: Suffer not the Ongwee to dwell with the I’hin, lest the seed of my chosen be
lost.
2. The Ongwees came suddenly into the world; came in the north and south and east and
west; came by thousands and thousands. And they had long hair, black and coarse; but
their skin was brown, copper-colored; and their arms were short, like the I’hins. Very
proud were the Ongwees, they would not mix with the I’huans; and they dared not mix
with the sacred people, because of the commandment of the Lord.
3. So, the Ongwee-ghan became a new race in the world, having all the symmetry of the
I’hin, and the savageness of the I’huans. And, being feeders on flesh and fish, fell
under the dominion of angels of the lower heaven, and they rejected the Lord God.
4. The Lord said: Even this will I appropriate for their own salvation in time to come.
5. So the Lord commanded the I’hins to give to the Ongwees laws, rites and ceremonies;
and these things were done as commanded.
6. Then came the angels of the lower heaven, teaching the Ongwees the secret of making
eunuchs of their enemies, the I’huans with the long arms; teaching them how to make
spears and bows with arrows, and darts and fishing-hooks and nets; teaching them how to
make fire by striking flint stones; teaching them how to cook flesh and fish to make them
more palatable. And this was the first cooked food for man since the days of the flood.
7. The I’hins feared the Lord would visit a judgment upon the land, because of the
Ongwees killing and eating flesh; but the Lord said unto them: Suffer ye the Ongwees to
fulfill their labor; too full is all the land with beasts and serpents. Nevertheless, it shall
come to pass that great destruction shall come upon the I’huans, and the ground people,
and the Ongwees. Their great cities shall be destroyed, and the lands laid desolate; but I
will rebuild them again with greater glory than in this day.
8. And so it came to pass, as the Lord had spoken through the I’hin prophets. In three
thousand years the large and handsome race, the Ongwees, transcended the long-armed
I’huans, the short-legged race.
9. God said: Hear me, O man! Understand the labor of the Lord thy God. Jehovih saith to
the Lord: Go thou to yonder earth, and make man upright (on two feet). And the Lord
accomplisheth it. Then saith Jehovih: Go yonder, and make man shapely on the earth.
And the Lord findeth a way to do this also.
10. Forget not the Lord thy God; such labor will fall to thy lot when thou art long risen in
heaven. Behold, there are millions of worlds, new coming into being every day. Expand
thy judgment; make thyself comprehensive, that thou mayst fulfill in wisdom the glory of
the Almighty.
Chapter 3
1. God said: Hear the word of the Lord, O man; be considerate in thy little wisdom of the
magnitude of the labor of thy Lord.
2. Certain times and seasons are allotted by Jehovih for the development of new orders of
men on the worlds He created. According to the times and seasons and condition of the
earth, so hath the Lord thy God provided the race of man.
3. To raise man up, that he may comprehend the beautiful creation, and that he may be
adapted in harmony therewith, is the glory of thy God.
4. Behold, I have spoken of the land of Guatama! Think not that as one division of the
earth is made answerable to my will by a certain rule, that even so another division of the
earth is provided in the same way. The Lord thy God findeth one place filled with beasts
of prey and great serpents, which must be destroyed; and he provideth a race of men
to accomplish this. And man is suffered by God to become carnivorous for a season.
5. In another country the Lord findeth drought and frequent famine; and he provideth man
with knowledge adapted thereto. So also are there seasons to the earth, when man shall be
changed from one condition to another; according to the progress of the earth, so God
lifted up man for the glory of the Almighty.
6. Suffer not thy judgment to mislead thee as to a law of selection. There is no law of
selection. Man hath no inspiration of his own to select and provide his progeny, neither in
shapeliness nor judgment.
7. He marrieth because of the impulse of the flesh; nor careth he for the issue,
whether they have long legs or short ones, or whether they become warriors or
imbeciles.
8. And woman even careth less than man. Nevertheless, a time cometh upon
the world, in a later age, when man and woman both consider these things, and
somewhat govern themselves accordingly. But in such an era they are almost fruitless.
9. But in the early age of a world, man hath inherent but two impulses, to eat and to
indulge in cohabitation. Neither considereth he what may result therefrom. And the
Lord and his angels lead man, unknowingly to himself, to fulfill his times and seasons.
10. Now have I come to thee in kosmon to make plain the government of heaven upon the
earth; and of thy God and his angels upon the race of man. Behold, in the time of Apollo,
man in his present form was brought into being on the earth. The time and season of the
earth was in that day come unto that end. Even as in this day thy Lord hath come to
change man from a race of warriors to a race of peace; for now is the time and the season
of the earth propitious to that end.
11. In the time of Apollo were the first prophets raised up from other than the I’hin race.
In that day, the I’huan, the flesh-eating man, was first capable of hearing the voice of thy
Lord understandingly. And thy God commanded man to remember the God of harmony,
symmetry and music, and to build images of him in all the divisions of the earth.
12. Be most searching, O man; for thou shalt find, in this day and generation, the legends
and history of Apollo in all the divisions of the earth.
13. And the word of his name, in all languages, hath the same significance.
14. Behold, as in Guatama, the Lord raised up seers, whom he instructed in the methods
of slaying beasts of prey and serpents, in the same period of time raised up for the same
purpose other seers in Shem, Ham and Jaffeth. And the names of the great slayers are
preserved to this day in the mortal histories of these countries.
15. Thus created the Lord a new race on the earth; and in all the divisions thereof, the
new race came of the I’hins and the I’huans. According to the different countries where
they dwelt, so are they found to this day. In which thy God provided all these people
who are of pure blood to have no other God nor Lord than the Great Spirit, Jehovih.
16. Nevertheless, in the time of Apollo, this race was but a fraction compared to the
hundreds of millions of I’huans and ground people and I’hins that dwelt on the earth. But
the I’huans were at war for more than a thousand years.
17. They built great cities, and established mighty kingdoms, but as soon as built, lo, the
wars laid them low or dissipated them.
18. God said: Now will I give to man a new commandment, which is, to go forth and
subdue the earth; to slay every beast of prey and every serpent that cometh before him.
19. And of beasts of prey and of serpents, shalt thou not eat the flesh, nor the blood,
which containeth life.
20. Neither shalt thou eat the flesh of the beast with uncloven foot; nor shalt thou eat
swine’s flesh.
21. But all cloven-footed animals I give unto thee, for food to eat. For in the day thou
takest the place of beasts of prey, thou shalt also take to thyself to eat the flesh they would
have eaten.
22. Then the Lord sent I’hin priests to circumcise the new race, the GHAN. And he
commanded the Ghans to marry amongst themselves, promising to give all the world into
their keeping.
23. And the Ghans began to wear clothes, after the manner of the I’hins; and the latter
gave them rites and ceremonies, and taught them how to pray and dance before Jehovih.
