"Say: The Holy Spirit has revealed it from
thy Lord with truth, that it may establish those who believe, and as a
guidance and good news for those who submit. And indeed We know that
they say: Only a mortal teaches him. The tongue of him whom they hint
at is foreign, and this is clear Arabic language." �Holy
Qur�an, Surah 16, verses 102&103
In 1972, at our newly named Mosque Maryam, since 1989, the
Honorable Elijah Muhammad presented 22 lectures entitled, "The
Theology of Time." Beginning in June and ending on October 29, he laid
the base of our understanding today on the Origin of God and self with
clearly defined information from the Divine Source of God Himself.
This Announcement of Divine Truth was first revealed in the early
1930�s with the Coming of a Wise Teacher from the East, identified as
Wallace Fard Muhammad, The Great Mahdi. Upon his departure, the
Honorable Elijah Muhammad was left in the charge of a whole nation and
people who had to be awakened and resurrected into this Revolutionary
Truth that the world�s scientists and scholars had been expecting for
the last 2,000 years.
From one perspective, we could state that the Honorable Elijah
Muhammad re-enacted the role of this powerful seventh angel, in
announcing the end of such theological teachings concerning a Mystery
God. He revealed for the first time to the public the Reality of God�s
Origin and explained clearly that Allah, God, dwells within self in
the person of every human soul. This ended the preaching of a
so-called Mystery God that exists outside of self. It is for this
reason that the scriptures tell us not to believe that a holy man or
individual alone being pointed out to us is the sole answer to our
salvation and if anyone Pointing out an individual as being the one is
immaterial to the true meaning of Christ in the resurrection of the
dead. The dead remain dead until they can identify the real God as the
Christ-Consciousness that lives in you.
The Spirit of God is now moving among the people and the
evangelists are all the people that will rise at once as the Witnesses
to the Christ Spirit within. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad has taught
us that the word Christ and his function means that the people will
rise up with this Divine Knowledge and become a nation of gods. This
is the kind of Knowledge that we all need for maximum security and
self-empowerment.
In the 21st chapter of the Book of John, Jesus reveals himself to
seven of his disciples for the third time in a very simple way at the
Sea of Galilee. He is teaching them in a parable about fishing how to
be fishers of men. Then he invites them to dine. "� And none of the
disciples dared asked him, Who art thou? Knowing that it was the Lord
... Jesus then cometh and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish
likewise. This is now the third time that Jesus showed himself to his
disciples, after he was risen from the dead."
The Mystery of God is given in this simple allegory. Since the
Coming of Master Fard Muhammad, to the birth of the Honorable Elijah
Muhammad in this Great Mission of the Resurrection of our people, to
the extended Mercy of the Divine Work of the Honorable Minister Louis
Farrakhan represents God�s Divine Plan in these three attempts to
raise spiritual consciousness among the masses of the people to the
level of self-knowledge which is rooted in the Knowledge of God.
"And when We change a message for a
message-and Allah knows best what He reveals-they say: Thou art only a
forger. Nay, most of them know not." �Holy Qur�an, Surah
16, verse 101
