The Lord said: Gabriel raised upon the earth one Mohammed, and inspired him<br \/>\nthrough his angel hosts. And the angels inspired Mohammed to go once every month in<br \/>\nthe year into the cave of Hara; on which occasions, Gabriel came in person, and talked<br \/>\nwith Mohammed, who had su&#8217;is in great perfection.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">2. Twelve years in peace did Gabriel inspire mortals through Mohammed. But, at the end<br \/>\nof thirteen years, Mohammed attained to sufficient strength to draw the sword for<br \/>\nGabriel&#8217;s doctrines. And Gabriel, through inspiration, caused the Mohammedans to<br \/>\ncommemorate this as the beginning of his kingdoms on earth. And they, therefore,<br \/>\nconsecrated the said period of time.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">3. And, on this first meeting of the faithful in Gabriel, Mohammed, being under<br \/>\ninspiration, spake before the multitude, saying:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">4. There is but one God, and he is God. Heaven is his. The earth is the Lord&#8217;s, through the<br \/>\nangel, Gabriel. This is the sum and substance of all things. This was the doctrine of<br \/>\nAbraham and of Moses, our forefathers.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">5. But evil men have invented other Gods, which have no existence. They are idols,<br \/>\nwhich exist only in superstition and ignorance.<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"fontstyle0\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">6. Revere me not, nor call me wise. I am not wise; I have little learning. Knowledge<br \/>\ncometh to me from the Unseen. My eyes are open, my ears are open. I see and hear<br \/>\nspiritual things. The angels of heaven tell me things of wisdom.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">7. I do but repeat them. Therefore, I am not wise, nor great. I strive to be honest and<br \/>\nupright before God, but I am weaker than a child in these respects. Therefore, worship not<br \/>\nme, nor bow down before me. I am nothing.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">8. As I am an instrument in the hands of God, through his angel, Gabriel, so also were<br \/>\nAbraham and Moses and many of the prophets. They could work miracles. I can not.<br \/>\nTherefore, I am the least of God&#8217;s prophets.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">9. That ye may become exalted before God, I am sent into the world. Shall I reveal what<br \/>\nGabriel hath told me? Or do ye believe God is dead, or gone afar off? Believe ye, that he<br \/>\ncan not raise up a prophet in this day? Is God weak? or hath he forgotten the world he<br \/>\ncreated?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">10. Why hath this thing come at this time? No man can answer that. Gabriel saith: There<br \/>\nis a false God in heaven, and he hath falsely called himself, Kriste. Gabriel saith, that he<br \/>\nhimself, Gabriel, provided the way for the gathering of the lost sheep of Israel, through an<br \/>\niesu.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">11. Brothers, I will tell you why I am chosen of God: It is to circumvent the Kriste&#8217;yan&#8217;s<br \/>\nidolatry from coming into Arabin&#8217;ya and the countries north and south and east.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">12. These countries were given by God to our forefathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and<br \/>\nthence down to Moses, and thence down to us.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">13. There is but one God, and Gabriel is his angel of all the world.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">14. And God raiseth up a prophet from time to time, to bless his chosen people.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">15. He put this matter upon me; I know only to serve God.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">16. The Kriste&#8217;yans are merciless warriors. This false Kriste and his worshipers are<br \/>\nworking for the Romans, and not for salvation. Wherever they go, they destroy the<br \/>\nlibraries and all manner of learning.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">17. Will ye submit, like slaves, to have them despoil you? Is there no Arabin&#8217;yan blood in<br \/>\nyour veins?<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">18. When asked to state the Mohammedan doctrines, he said: To tell no lies; to not<br \/>\ncommit fornication; to preserve the ceremonies; to give to the poor freely; to observe the<br \/>\nsacred days; to aggress not; but to war for the innocent and oppressed; to maintain the<br \/>\nliberty of the people; to steal not, and to deceive no man.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">19. Mohammed, being under inspiration of the God, Gabriel, and his angels, collected<br \/>\ntogether thousands and tens of thousands of warriors, and went forth to conquer. And the<br \/>\nangel hosts of Gabriel went forth with Mohammed&#8217;s army, and inspired them to such<br \/>\ndegree that they were without fear or hesitation. And Gabriel&#8217;s hosts of angels went into<br \/>\nthe armies that fought against Mohammed, and inspired them with fear and cowardice<br \/>\nand panic.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">20. And it came to pass, that wherever Mohammed went, there was sure victory, the like<br \/>\nof which had not been for many centuries.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">21. Now, Looeamong, the false Kriste, had previously destroyed, for the most part, the<br \/>\nAlexandrian library, having inspired a mortal priest, Coatulius, to do the work.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">22. And Looeamong, now perceiving the triumph of Mohammed, inspired three hundred<br \/>\nmonks and priests to go throughout Heleste and Arabin&#8217;ya, and destroy the ancient state<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"fontstyle0\">records and libraries. And they went thither, and accomplished the destruction.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">23. Mohammed was shown this by Gabriel, and he used it as a battle-cry for his soldiers.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">24. Looeamong now declared war in heaven against the false God-Gabriel; and, in not<br \/>\nmany years they both carried their war down to earth, contending for certain localities on<br \/>\nthe earth.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">25. As for the other two false Gods, Kabalactes, alias Budha, and Ennochissa, alias<br \/>\nBrahma, they had been in war against each other for over six hundred years.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">26. Now had these four false Gods possession of the whole earth, at least, wherever there<br \/>\nwere mortal kingdoms and empires.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">27. Now, in reference to the Faithists: In Chine&#8217;ya and Vind&#8217;yu, they were no longer<br \/>\nidentified with the kingdoms or governments, but lived about in scattered families. In<br \/>\nArabin&#8217;ya, Heleste and Uropa, they were scattered in all directions. From the time of<br \/>\nJoshu&#8217;s death, in Jerusalem, they began to migrate, mostly toward the west.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">28. And these called themselves, Israelites and Jews.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">29. Nevertheless, many of the Israelites and Jews, so-called, were apostates in fact; eating<br \/>\nflesh, and marrying with other peoples.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">30. Now, after the fall of the great empire, Egupt, her people migrated westward,<br \/>\nhundreds of thousands of them, and they settled in western Uropa, where these people<br \/>\nmarried with the aborigines. Their offspring were called Druids, Picts, Gales (Gaelic),<br \/>\nWales (Welsh), Galls (Gauls), and Yohans (Johns), all of which are Eguptian names,<br \/>\npreserved to this day.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">31. Now, when the Faithists were moved by the inspiration of God to have no more kings,<br \/>\nand to flee away from the Kriste&#8217;yan warriors, they came amongst the people above<br \/>\nmentioned. (The apostate Faithists married with them, and their offspring were the<br \/>\nforefathers of those now called, French, German, Russian and English.)<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">32. God, Son of Jehovih, had said: Suffer the apostates to so marry, for here will I find a<br \/>\nway to raise up disbelievers in the false Kriste; and they shall ultimately become believers<br \/>\nin Jehovih only.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">33. For, inasmuch as I have suffered them to become scattered, so will I appropriate them<br \/>\nas seed to quicken all the races of men to comprehend the All One.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>God\u2019s Book of Eskra,\u00a0Chapter 50 CHAPTER 50 1.
