"And We created not the heaven and the earth and what is between them for sport." �Holy Qur�an, Surah 21, verse 16

In our continual study of the significance of the August 11th Solar Eclipse combined with the October 7th Birthday Celebration of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, here are some further observations to present for the serious students of the Divine Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. From August 11th to August 31st, we count 20 days. Adding the 30 days of September, we count 50. Adding the first 7 days of October, we count 57, half the number of the entire chapters of the Holy Qur�an which is 114. It is interesting to note that Christopher Columbus Day, the Rediscovery of America, celebrated on October 12th is not only the sum of the number 57, but this ending year of the 20th Century, marks the 507th year since that date in 1492.

Reversing the number 57, we come to the number 75 which is profoundly significant. This number, prefixed by the number 19, gives us the Gregorian Calendar Date of 1975, the year of the Departure of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad in the 44th year of his Divine Mission. At that date came a pause and a vacuum in the History of the Nation of Islam which led to the manifestation of a critical part in our evolution to perfection. All things which appear to be negative have their positive results built into the very nature of all created things and experiences as in the yin-yang polarities. In the ancient annals of our past Histories, for example, in the year 8,400, a man was born named Yacob, who challenged God�s Existence with an ideology which was diametrically opposed to the way of life of the civilization or era in which he was born.

Out of a 30% dissatisfaction that was recorded among the thinking of the original People at that time, Yacob was born with a determined idea, whose time had come, which would change the course of human history that would be limited to a period of 6,000 years. He would change the course of Civilization by making a people from out of the germ of life of the Original Man that would work contrary to the nature of the Original People, but would yet exhibit the Wisdom of God, through the polarities of negative and positive use of energies and Thought. This Experiment or new Time Line and Direction in History would not be broken until another Powerful One would be born to Restore and Rebuild and Perfect that which had been destroyed of the Original People whose Light had been almost totally extinguished.

This Mighty and Holy One, who broke Yacob�s Civilization, was born on February 26th, 1877, in the Holy City of Mecca and was identified as the Great Mahdi, God In Person, through the Divine Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. This Announcement was Universally Unacceptable by the Majority of Scientists and Scholars and even the masses of people producing Earth-shaking, Cataclysmic results. Now one may question, what does the foregoing information have to do with this particular series of articles that commenced with the October 7th Birthday Celebration of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad? I must respond to our readers in the following manner:

We have come to the end of the period of Hiding the Truth on the Reality of God, and The Grace Period extended through the Divine Leadership of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan who is prepared to take us safely across troubled waters into the New Millennium. The question raised is this, if God be God, we must follow Him and if Baal be god, then follow him. This day of Decision, heralded by the Work of Elijah known to Christians, Muslims and Jews as the Voice Crying in the Wilderness Preparing the Way for the Coming of God In Person. The Divine work of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad comes in fulfillment of this Great Prophecy.

If we do not study the past histories, we are unable to see or understand the present and we will definitely absence ourselves from the future. The Dynamics of the Divine Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad is that for the first time in a Millennium, even in millions and trillions of years, we are no longer residing only in the classroom of the prophets and the messengers of God, but we are actually living in the Time Prophesied by all the former prophets and messengers in which The Mystery of God would be Revealed. We are living in the end Time that those Prophets Predicted which is the end of the world that we have known. It is the Apocalypse Unveiled.

While the enemies of God and all His Opponents are amassing their arsenal of False Propaganda, Slander and Lies in an allied effort to destroy the Foundation of the Divine Teachings, the Character and Morals of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, I warn you, from the Mouth of Almighty God Allah, that there are no weapons formed against this Great Truth that will Prevail, for you are coming against The Powers of the Heavens and the Earth which have been prepared since their Beginnings with Almighty God to Strikeout every rebellious one and spirit who stands in opposition to the Presence of God, Today.

On Behalf of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and His Greatest Helper, The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, you have no idea how Allah has prepared many of us to go into Battle, by Allah�s Permission, in The Defense of Truth, In the Divine Light of Islam, and the Divine Guidance of Allah, with the Sacrifice of our lives for this Great Cause, which is the only Life we know, and at the proper time, you will come to know. "Nay, We hurl the Truth against falsehood, so it knocks out its brains, and lo! It vanishes. And woe to you for what you describe!" �Holy Qur�an, Surah 21, verse 18
