In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Most Merciful, the Truthful and the Most Just: Who came to North America in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad and raised, or taught, and sent the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to find and raise and teach me:
I greet all of you who are hungry and thirsty for the Truth of religion and the Word of God, and for Truth in general, with the greeting words of peace:
May Allah’s-Salaam-Alaikum.
Now understand something: The first child that Master Fard Muhammad’s father produced by the woman was a girl, and His father said, “Well I missed that time.”
The first nation that was produced that was above all other nations was a girl, a natural- minded nation called the United States of America. God brought this country into existence. He gave them the Declaration of Independence, He gave them the Constitution, He gave them the law; and they called this a grand experiment, because it had not been done before.
When God does something, it is going to be new, something that nobody’s ever done before. So He brought this country into existence, a girl, and the law and the natural. It’s just like how you call nature, “mother”: Mother Nature.
The first mind that Allah created in a new man: that man was called the Jinn, and this world was kept in store for the perdition of men. 2nd Peter 3:7 says,
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Men who would love natural stuff and the material stuff more than they love God. So this world was kept in store for the perdition of ungodly men.
So the Constitution: As they say, “We are a nation of laws.” That is what they say. Now Romans 8:3 says,
For what the law could not do…
They have made all kinds of laws to prevent [things]. It’s just like in the military, they have article 126, [which is against] sodomy: If you practice sodomy, they throw you out of the military.
So they had laws against that even on the books in the states, and they found out that you just can’t legislate morals. It’s impossible to make laws that will make people be morally upright. It just won’t do it. And so it says,
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh [it was flesh, it was weak]…
If a person is forced to do something that is not their will, have you changed them because you forced them not to do it?
If you force a person to do something that they don’t want to do, it’s the same as forcing them to not do something that they want to do. They haven’t changed. All you did was temporarily stop them; but they are going to still be trying to find a way to do it.
So the law is weak. You can’t legislate and make laws to make people morally upright. They aren’t going to do it. So it says,
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin [the sinful mind that was] in the flesh:
He called the White man the Devil. Why? Because of the sinful mind that was in him. And the only reason he pointed out that the White man is the Devil is because that’s the body that the mind was in who was ruling. Okay, then it says,
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us…
The righteousness of the law is the rightness of the law. It wasn’t that the law was wrong, but you still can’t force it on anybody.
You hear people say that they are enforcing the law. Well that’s an effort in futility. If you could really enforce righteousness on people, enforce laws on people, you wouldn’t need any jails.
Jails are full of people that you couldn’t enforce the law against, so all you could do is cage them.
Most people don’t understand what the jail is. The jail is a cage. You put animals in cages.
When you go in a jungle, there isn’t a law. When you go into a civilization where people don’t want to be restrained or restricted, you have entered into a jungle; because in order for everybody to be free, everybody must agree to certain restrictions. In the movie “John Wick”, the fella said, “That happens because of rules. Without them, we live with the animals.”
Yes, without rule of law, we live like animals. It’s just that simple. It is laws that prevent the strong from overpowering and taking what they want from the weak. It is law that we agree to live by to not tolerate such things, to not do them. Luke 6:31 says,
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
Not as they do to you, but as you would like them to do to you. And so Romans 8:3-4 says, that we condemn the sin in the flesh that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us.
The only way that you can truly get law-abiding people is that everyone must have a self-accusing conscience that accepts right, that loves right, and hates wrong. And when you get a society where people love righteousness and hate wickedness, then there’s no need for jails. There’s no need for what you call laws, because God’s law is in their hearts. Then we can move on to perfection and we can move on to what we were meant for: life everlasting.
It’s just like when you look at people and we run to the doctor because we get sick; but we never say “why are we sick”, because the answer to that, we don’t want to hear.
We’re sick because we made the wrong choices. We’re sick because we’re slowly killing ourselves; because the wages of sin is death, and sickness is just a road that if you stay on that long enough, you’re going to die. Romans 6:23 says,
For the wages of sin is death;
So if you want to stop dying, you have to stop sinning and stop thinking that you can keep sinning because you have some medicine, you have this mediator here, that’s going to keep you from that.
Medicine is a lie. That’s the first thing. And they even tell you that they’re giving you this medicine for this, and if you have this problem, don’t take this; and if you have a weak kidney or you have [another problem, don’t take this medicine].
Every medicine they give you always has some side-effect to make something else wrong with you.
I’m not trying to put down medication when people say you have to get some; but I’m telling you that if we want to live, then there’s only one way to life, and that is to submit to the Word of God.
The Word of God is Truth. The Word of God is life for us.
Many people think, “Well I’m doing this for God.”
You aren’t doing anything for God. The Truth doesn’t need us. We need the Truth. And when we obey the law of life, the Word that gives life to us, we’re not doing God a favor. We’re doing ourselves a favor.
When you [don’t] understand that God is the Truth, you can’t grant dominion to yourself, nor to anyone else. If you don’t know the Truth of how to do it, tying your shoe becomes an effort in futility. When we say “with God, all things are possible”, we are saying that with the Truth, all things are possible. Then Romans 8:4 says,
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Jesus defined “spirit” as the “Word”. John 6:63 says,
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
He also said in John 3:6,
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Then the mind and the Word is God. That’s what the Book said: the Word is God. The Word is Allah. John 1:1 says,
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Allah (the God) the Word, the Spirit. God is the spirit. Well then, we walk after knowledge. We walk by faith in the Word, and as we walk after the spirit, after the knowledge… You notice when you don’t know what to do or what you’re supposed to do, you don’t keep working when you don’t know what to do next. You stop; and after you get the knowledge of what to do after the word, then you work some more.
You don’t just keep on walking and don’t know where you’re going. So it says,
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh;
Do you know what that means? They do desire the things of the flesh; like a connoisseur of fine foods. He lives to eat. Then you have somebody that’s a connoisseur of wines. He likes to drink wine; and all of them are killing themselves, because all the flesh is doing is trying to get back to where it came from: dust.
The more you desire to eat and all of that, you eat yourself right into the ground, again because the law of life is that all things have to be done in moderation. It has to be controlled, when you moderate it.
You know what a moderator is in a discussion, don’t you? That’s someone who tells somebody to speak or to be quiet. Well all things in moderation. Ecclesiastes 3:1 says,
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
If you want to live, then you had better obey the law of life. If you want to drive, you had better obey the laws of the road, or you won’t be driving long. If the police don’t stop you, an accident will happen, because you are just an accident looking for a place to happen. If you are out there not aware of the laws of the road, you are going to kill yourself or somebody else, if you keep on being out there. So Romans 8:5 says,
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit [the things that are of God].
What did the Scripture say man’s whole duty is? To fear God and keep his commandments. Ecclesiastes 12:13 says,
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Well in order to keep His commandments, don’t you have to be mindful of what those commandments are? Okay. This world was set up for one purpose. Romans 8:6 says,
For to be carnally minded is death;
Yes. What is death? It is the absence of life on a certain level.
I mean, all matter lives. There is no such thing as matter that does not live; but this matter here that composes our bodies, it will only hold this form of life if you know how to make it hold this form. If you violate the law that holds this form, then this matter will cease to exist in this form, and go to another form; because matter is constantly [changing]. That’s the one constant in the universe of matter: it is that matter is constantly changing forms.
Okay, so now let’s get back to the Messenger.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: This is not a mock for me to stand here and call the people a Devil, because that’s what they are.
If any mockery should be done, it should be done to Us. If this is what We have made or created, then the God of the Black man should be responsible for the mockery.
I want to give you the Truth.They didn’t make themselves. We made them.
Well then, you have no right to be saying that “your creature is no good”. Well if you made it no good, then don’t blame that which you made for being no good, because you made it.
I know I’m coming to you in a way that you didn’t think about.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: He had to start saying it like that because (those who had been following him up to that point) didn’t understand that you can’t, on the one hand, call the White man the Devil, and make mockery of him; while you are saying that you made him that.
Well then, whose fault is it?
You should be mocking yourself. You make the thing something that isn’t any good, and then you say, “You aren’t any good.”
That thing, if it could talk back, would say, “Well you made me no good.”
So now what? So who’s really to blame? And that’s what the Messenger said. He said, “I’m coming to you in a way you weren’t expecting.”
They did quiet down when he started getting on them about you sitting up here talking about the product as though the product made itself. You are the maker of the product, so you don’t have any right to be accusing the product of being no good.
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, “Ask his Maker, ‘Why did you make him no good?’”
He’s going to go there in just a moment.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: We’re here to tell the Truth, as you have in the epistle of Paul in the Bible. He says there concerning this same subject, “Can the clay say to the potter, ‘Why make me thus?’”
Well that’s right. If you are the potter, the clay was innocent until you formed it and made it into something else. If you made another piece of pottery that you make mock of, you are the maker.
We must have understanding. We can’t say that there was a mistake made, and We should not recognize it. No.
Listen at this good. I know you pretty well.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: What he was saying is that we can’t look at the White man and him ruling and say, “It’s a mistake. We shouldn’t recognize him. We aren’t going to pay any attention to him.”
No, because God gave him dominion. You didn’t have any choice but to recognize him.
So the thing you need to be doing is finding out from God [and asking], why did you make this man; not talking about you aren’t going to recognize him; because the minute you say you aren’t going to recognize somebody that God said recognize, now you have gotten yourself in trouble.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: The Truth is true. If One from among Us made an enemy for us, well we don’t go after His product for doing this. We go after the Maker. “Why did you make us an enemy?”
He replies back to us, “To show what was in you. He was in you and you didn’t know it. So I brought him out of you and made a form for him.”
We have a lot of it.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: As I reminded you a good while back, there weren’t any White folks around here when the moon got put out there. Those were wicked Black people that God was angry with, and that wicked germ (which the Messenger referred to as a germ) is a wicked thought that was in us.
The thoughts of evil, the thoughts of wickedness, were in us, and we didn’t know it was in us. We didn’t understand how deep it was in us.
So Yakub brought it out of us and put it in a form, a human being, and gave that form dominion. He said, “Now this is where those evil thoughts that you’ve been entertaining and trying to justify: This is where they are going to lead to. Now we know our own evil, and we put it in them.”
That’s why it said we cursed them, and that curse was to remain on them until the Day of Judgment. Now in this time of understanding [that’s what judgment is, it’s understanding], that curse is being removed now from those who want to get rid of it.
I’m here to change everybody. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed. 1st Corinthians 15:51 says,
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
The devil hasn’t been sleep. We are the ones that have been sleep.
We shall not all sleep. You sleep at night, [but if] you go out in the woods or just go outside and listen, you hear all kinds of noise out there. So everybody isn’t sleep, and even everything isn’t sleep. 24/7, life goes on.
So now that we have known the depth of Satan, we understand; and once you can understand, then you can make worthwhile changes. “God, help me to accept the things that I cannot or should not change, and the courage to change the things that need changing that I should change; and then have the wisdom to recognize the changes that they were for the better or for the worse.” The wisdom to know the difference.
There you go. You know, a lot of times people don’t know when to leave something alone.
When you don’t know when it’s time to leave something alone, you are lost. You don’t know what your goal is.
A lot of times, people think that because they know of another way of doing something, that that means the new way is better.
That’s not true. If that was true, there would not be such a word as “best”. You better learn to know when something is well enough and it’s good enough. Otherwise, you are going to go to perfection and then leave it. You’ll go right back into imperfection thinking you’re still making some good changes, when you don’t realize you actually had something that was perfect and you threw it away. You messed it up.
Engineer: Excuse me, Son of Man. We have a question from Nebula, and she says, “What is this? What is the New Nation of Islam?”
Son of Man: Just that. There’s never been a Nation of Islam before, or it wouldn’t be a New Nation of Islam.
People heard the Honorable Elijah Muhammad talking about the “said Nation of Islam”. He said, “What is the birth record of the said Nation of Islam?” And the answer was, “The said Nation of Islam has no birth record. It has no beginning nor ending.”
Well that is the Truth. The beginning of a thing is the author of a thing. The ending of the thing is the finisher of a thing.
Well I am the author and the finisher of the faith that will create the New Nation of Islam, and it’s called New Nation of Islam because there has never been a Nation of Islam.
Why do you call a car a new car? Because there has never been one like that one. That new model is different from the other ones. There had never been a Seville Cadillac back in 1974. When the Seville came out, everybody was looking at it. They couldn’t make heads nor tails of it. It didn’t even look like a Cadillac. Not only that, it had a 283 engine in it, and they got in trouble for that. But anyway, it was new.
Likewise, there has never been a Nation of Islam because God had never been in person before to build it. Before you can build a thing, you have to have a plan for it. The Holy Scriptures is the plan for the will of God on Earth. It’s the plan. “Thou shalt do this, thou shalt not do this.”
What are the Scriptures? Instruction in righteousness, because up to now, there were none righteous. The Scripture says in Romans 3:10,
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Okay, well if there is none righteous, Allah said, “I’m going to create a mortal who will be righteous”; and He called me by many names: Son of Man, Spirit of Truth, Gabriel… All those names are me, period. Lamb of God. It’s all written about me.
If it wasn’t about me, I couldn’t make it all bear me witness. They were all told to bear me witness. When the Son of Man shall come in his temple, his glory: That’s what my body is: it’s the glory of the Word of God, like that light bulb is the glory of the electricity that’s flowing through [it]. It’s showing you the light-giving properties that are in electrons that you wouldn’t have seen if it hadn’t got in its glory there.
I’m showing you the understanding, the life- giving understanding of the Word of God by passing it through my brain.
So I’m called the glory of God, and I was made to glorify the Word of God; and just like a magnifying glass makes things bigger, well I magnify Allah.
Allah is greatly magnified in the midst of this body here, and I say our midst because: as Paul said in 2nd Corinthians 5:6-8,
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
When he was absent from the body, he would be present with the Lord Himself; and he said as long as he was at home in the body (as long as he lived), he was absent from the Lord. But when he no longer is present in that body, his words, his mind, will be present in the Lord Himself.
Why? Because I wasn’t told to take part of the Bible and study it. I was told to eat up the whole Book, and go and speak with the Words that’s in it. Ezekiel 3:4 says,
And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
David was a king, Solomon was a king—all of the Prophets were kings of men. The essence of their knowledge, the extract of their knowledge—it’s just like [how] in a man’s scrotum is the extract that will produce a completely new human being. There’s 23 chromosomal bodies in the head of each of those little life-germs, that if they connect with an egg, that 23 from the man and 23 from the woman will come together and they will produce a completely new human being from extract. That’s all it is: extract.
The coming together of the Holy Bible and the Holy Quran, meeting with the brain of myself, born to receive it, a slave: You can’t come to Allah except as a slave. If you’re not a slave, Allah doesn’t want you.
A servant is all you can be to God; and when you humble yourself as a child like I have done, then Allah accepts you as His friend, because you do what He says.
Abraham was God’s friend, because he did what God told him. I am Allah’s friend. Not only am I the seed of Abraham, but I am doing just like Abraham did. I do what Allah said, period.
So I’m His servant, and as He said in Isaiah 42:1,
Behold my servant, whom I uphold [whose word I uphold];
If you can find something in the Holy Scriptures that does not uphold what I say, then I’m not the Son of Man.
If I contradict any Prophet, then I’m a liar. I’m not the Son of Man. I can’t be [if I’m] contradicting them, because they were told to bear me witness and I was told to bear them witness. What did Jesus say in John 16:13-14?
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
“When the Spirit of Truth comes, he shall receive of mine and show you the understanding of it.”
To receive means to understand, to hear it. If someone’s speaking to you, regardless of how wise that person may be, if they are speaking to you and you don’t understand what they are saying, it’s the same as they weren’t speaking to you.
You’re not being spoken to if you don’t understand what the speaker is saying; and if you know that, you should know that God wasn’t speaking to you when He revealed this Book, because you didn’t understand it.
It’s just that simple. When you write a letter, you don’t write a letter to somebody that can’t understand your writing.
Some of you may know shorthand. Well if you’re writing in shorthand, then you know anybody who picks that up and can’t read shorthand should know that [isn’t written] to them.
All this time, you’ve been making up your own brands of religion [which] tells you that the Word of God (the Holy Bible and the Holy Quran) was not meant for you; because you’re guessing and going on at it.
You don’t have to guess at something [that] God is telling you if He’s speaking to you. You don’t have to guess. He knows how to make Himself understood to who He’s talking to.
He made me understand that He’s talking to me, and gave all of His books to you all, and none of you could open it; but He opened it for me. He sent Elijah and said, “Here, take that to the Son of Man.”
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad brought the Book, opened it up, gave it to me, and said, “Now here it is.”
He said that Allah means “all of us”. Meaning what? Every Prophet was the mouth of God: Paul was God’s mouth, Jesus was God’s mouth, Moses, David, Solomon, Hosea, Habakkuk, Mohammed: All of them were God’s mouth.
I’m the man that He was fashioning: the new man. Remember, Ephesians 2:15 says,
Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
That’s what it says. Oh, and by the way, Ephesians has some more teachings for you too, because Ephesians tells you that it has never been about attacking White people because of their skin. That doesn’t have anything to do with anything.
The White man isn’t any different than any other human being, except for his color. Let’s go to Ephesians. It’s one of those little small books [that] you always have to thumb through [the Book for]. There’s six chapters of it. Okay, Ephesians chapter 2 and let’s go to the 10th verse. It says,
For we are his workmanship…
Do you remember [when] David said, “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord all ye lands, serve the Lord with gladness, come before his presence with singing”. Let’s go there to the 100th Psalms, and hold on to Ephesians now because we’re coming right back to it; but I’m showing you the harmony of the Scriptures.
Every Prophet backed up the one that came before him. They all bore witness to each other. This is the 100th Psalms starting at verse 1. It says,
1 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
3 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us [what we are], and not we ourselves;
Remember, the Truth, the Word, made Jesus who and what he was. The Word made Isaiah who and what he was. The Word made Moses who and what he was. So go back to Ephesians now and look at Ephesians here where Paul was writing this letter to the Ephesians. Ephesians 2:10 says,
For we are his workmanship…
Psalms 100:3 says,
…It is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves;
Ephesians 2:10 says,
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ…
They said, “created in Christ Jesus”. You don’t even see the name “Jesus” in the Old Testament. They shouldn’t have put that in there. Is “encyclopedia” one book? It’s a singular word. How come it isn’t one book? Encyclopedia is a group of books. It’s voluminous. So is Christ. As the Book says in 1st Corinthians 12:12,
For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
Is Congress one person or is Congress a body of persons? It has many members. But all they (the House of Representatives and the Senate) being many, [are one body]. That is the Congress of the United States, and Congress is singular; but [when speaking of] its members, you may say, “There goes the congressman.”
Well Jesus was the Christ, the anointed. That’s what Christ means. It means “anointed”.
If you say “the anointed”, then intelligent people would say, “Well which one?”
Why? Because Isaiah was anointed, David was anointed. Isaiah 61:1 says,
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
David said in Psalms 23:5,
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
So all of the Messengers of God were the anointed one of God; but at the same time, all of them had that in common that they were anointed; so if you mean all of them, just say “Christ”, and then let this mind be in you that was also in Christ. Philippians 2:5 says,
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ:
Tell me something: If you want the whole mind that’s in the encyclopedia, you can’t just take the A volume. You have to take A through Z, and then you have encyclopedia in you.
If you believe in all of the Prophets and in all of their Scriptures, now you can receive the mind of Christ. So let’s finish reading. It says in Ephesians the 2nd chapter, and I started off at the 10th verse:
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
What does that say? If God ordained it, then that’s what He anointed them for. That’s what He created them for. That’s what He sent them for. David said this in Psalms 119:105,
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
“Your Word is directing my feet, and even if I don’t understand where you have me going, you will explain why I went that way. You will shine light upon my path, light of understanding upon the path that I made.” And then Ephesians 2:11 says,
Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh…
All of us in here: How many of you didn’t go to school in the United States school system?
We all did. Well we all became jinn. We all became Gentiles. The Holy Quran says “Jinn”. The Bible says “Gentile”. It’s actually both, but “Gentile” explains them even better, because the Holy Quran 15:27 says,
And the jinn, We created before of intensely hot fire.
You know what ceramic tile is made of. It’s made out of clay.
When you were a little girl or a little boy, did you do the hand print in the clay? Then they put it in the kiln and it came out like glass. That ceramic tile is made from intensely hot fire.
Well the White man was given natural knowledge. He’s the man that Genesis was talking about when He said “let us make man in our image”.
Nobody ever asked who was the “us”. See, “Us” not only meant something [that] happened a long time ago, but it also meant what’s happening today in the U.S.; but let’s talk about the “Us” that made the White man.
We made him by a grafting process, by which they make white mice. They don’t have to keep doing it now, because they have the white mouse here, but he’s called a laboratory animal. You never saw a white mouse in your house; and I know about mice in the house, rats too. I grew up with that.
I have never seen a white rat or a white mouse in my house. Where did they come from? They were made in the laboratory.
Now where did he get the idea to make a white mouse to experiment on?
That’s what he is: a White man that was grafted out of us. You can’t look at the Earth and say, “This is what they made the White man from: that clay.”
There is no white clay. People don’t hardly sit in the bathtub any more, and I don’t blame them, because there is no sense in washing it off when you are going to sit in it. But anyway, you look at the ring around the tub, and you notice it looks gray. That’s clay.
Okay, so now when you look at the White man making a white mouse, you have to ask yourself, “How did he learn to do that?”
Why do they call those who call themselves Jews “semitic people”? They say they are semitic people because they came out of our semen. They didn’t come from the Earth.
We are the only ones that come out of the Earth. We are the only ones that didn’t come from another mother and father. We actually were created, self-created out of the Earth.
People never even thought about what it says in Genesis 1:26,
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:
Well who is this God that’s talking? If you say that one man is the image of God, then why don’t you believe that God is the Original man?
You can’t get an image if you don’t have an original.
Well who is the Original Man (God Himself)? And who is that? It’s the Black man. We are the only people on Earth that other people can’t claim to be our father. You can’t get any Black people from Japanese people, brown folks. You can’t get any Black people from Yellow people, Chinese. You can’t get any Black people from White people; but you can get all of them from us. They come out of our semen.
It’s just that you have to get to brown before you can start isolating the yellow from the brown; and then once you get the yellow—Do you remember that song by the Beatles? I’m pretty old, [but] you all probably remember. It says, “We all live in a yellow submarine.”
What is a submarine? It’s a submersible vehicle.
Well the Brown man is submerged in the Black man, and the Yellow man is submerged in the Brown man, and the White man is submerged in the Yellow man; and all of them are actually submerged in us, and we are the Sun of Man.
It’s just like [how] you look at the sunlight: It has yellow, green, orange, purple, red, indigo, infrared, ultraviolet; but it’s all in one light: sunlight.
All of the people on the Earth are in us, and so they come from us. That’s why we are called Aboriginal people: Asiatic Black Original people. That’s who we are, and the Earth itself is our home.
“Asia” means Earth. Asiatic is of the Earth. The seven churches of Asia are the seven continents on this planet, and they are seven heavens, as the Book teaches you; but people never got that.
In church, they thought there was something spooky, but the continents are firm, and God said in Genesis 1:6,
And God said, Let there be a firm-ment in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
The land is firm, the continent is firm, the water is not, and it divides the water from the water. If it wasn’t for the continent of North America and Central and South America, there would be just one ocean; but this continent divides the Pacific from the Atlantic. Then you have other continents. Every ocean is a valley. It’s a valley full of water. So Ephesians 2:11 says,
Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision…
The reason it says “uncircumcision” is because the circumcision is where you have a veil over the reproductive organ of a man. There’s a foreskin over it. When you cut that foreskin off, it exposes the head of the man’s reproductive organ.
Our brains are veiled by this world, thinking that Moses’ rod was a stick [that he] held out over the ocean. That’s a veil of flesh. The fleshy mind does not understand spiritual things.
The veil that the Scripture is talking about is misunderstanding.
I’m circumcising all of you now. I’m removing the misunderstanding, the thinking that the rod of Moses was a stick.
No, the rod of Moses was the Word of Moses, and rightly dividing the red sea is actually rightly dividing the Word of God. Let’s get back to the Messenger’s message here.
Engineer: The sister asks, “Is this the 5% nation?”
Son of Man: No, it’s the New Nation of Islam. I don’t have a 5% and all that stuff. No. I’m the Son of Man, and this is the New Nation of Islam that I’m building. Was there something else?
Engineer: Yes sir. She asked, “Is there solidarity between the old organizations?”
Son of Man: No, the only solidarity is for people to join with me. I’m not here to join with anybody. Everybody has to join with me or get left. One faith, one baptism, one Lord. Ephesians 4:5 says,
One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Anything else?
Engineer: No sir, that was it.
Son of Man: Okay.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: We have a lot of it. You’re going to think you need some gloves on to pat your hands. [smiles]
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: Let me tell you something else: I was just being kind and going on and answering your questions, but your questions didn’t have anything to do with what I’m teaching on.
I don’t know of any teacher that appreciated you asking them a question that didn’t have anything to do with what they were talking about.
If you’re that disinterested in what I’m sharing with you, just leave; because this is a very important message for you to hear from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to help you understand me better, and believe that I’m who I say I am.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: We have a lot of it. You’re going to think you need some gloves on to pat your hands. [smiles] We have a lot of it.
So He made the White race by taking them from us. As the Holy Quran tells them after they have been made and given power to rule, He reminds His creature, “Don’t forget who made you. Was it you yourself or was it We that made you?”
This is to stop him from being proud over His Maker, that he had something to do with it.
We are the only created people on Earth. The Black man is a created man and the man that we call White, he is a made man from the Black man.
So since the White race was made from the Black people, the Black nation, the created people: and now, what was the purpose?
It was the purpose to bring out of the Black man that which he didn’t know that existed in him, and that which existed in him could be made to rule over you if given a form and given the knowledge of the Black man. He could rule the Black man for a certain number of years until a greater One than he has been produced by the Black man.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: Now listen closely to his next words, because he’s about to tell you that that’s what Master Fard Muhammad found over here: that a greater One had been produced over here, and that’s why He had to come here and do what He did. Master Fard Muhammad found that One who was greater than Yakub here. As Jesus said in John 14:28, my father is greater than I [am].
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: So since the White race was made from the Black people, the Black nation, the created people: and now, what was the purpose?
It was the purpose to bring out of the Black man that which he didn’t know that existed in him, and that which existed in him could be made to rule over you if given a form and given the knowledge of the Black man. He could rule the Black man for a certain number of years until a greater One than he has been produced by the Black man.
So this is what our Saviour, Master Fard Muhammad, found in us. Therefore He came for us to save us, because we are a people that belongs to the Creator.
We are not a made people, as I repeat. We are a created people. Therefore getting after One that was created righteous: now out of us, this One created from us an unrighteous people, because we had that germ left in us from the creation of us: A germ that was not purified, that it could not be changed into a wicked germ that we have in us.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: When he said that germ we have in us that was not purified, he’s talking about knowledge that we did not have a comprehensive understanding of. And whenever you are presented with knowledge that you don’t understand, the wicked one can come and give it false meaning.
That’s what the White man did. That’s what he was made to do: find you in a state of not being sure of the knowledge that you have, and then he can mislead you in that knowledge; and that’s what he has been doing for the past six thousand years.
He was allowed to do that, and that germ that was in us was knowledge that we did not fully understand.
It’s just like the term “God”: We didn’t understand what that was really, and that knowledge had been kept in a circle of twelve, and they took turns ruling with it; because they thought that was best: because they had a little group to themselves, and they knew the knowledge of rulership, and they took turns ruling.
That happened for trillions of years. We’ve done that. We never had one God until fifty thousand years ago when Mr. Shabazz decided and told them that he could make a people that nothing could defeat; and from that people, we could produce One that would be so wise that we would no longer be ruled by twelve, but we would have only one ruler. They told him, “Well you go make your man, but don’t make him here.”
In other words, “we’re not going to help you do that.”
They didn’t want to give up their power, but they weren’t going to try to stop him; and so that is what Yakub came to help finish. He came to help finish what Mr. Shabazz started, and by making the Devil, Yakub put in the last thing that would be needed: something for the mind of the future Supreme Being to overcome.
That’s the song that the Devil made, to dream the impossible dream and to fight the unbeatable foe. That’s what the Devil was made for: to be the enemy of man, of the new man, and that is what I am.
I am the new man, and that’s what We were getting to over here, that from them twain making one new man from the Devil’s teachings and the Prophet’s teachings. I have become one new man. In Ephesians chapter 2 verse 12, it says,
That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel [Jacob]…
Where you see Israel, you mean you see Jacob. They didn’t understand all of the knowledge of Jacob. He didn’t tell them all of everything that He knew. Remember, He said in the Holy Quran 2:30,
…Surely I know what you know not.
Well He never shared that with them. Then Ephesians 2:12 says,
…And strangers from the covenants of promise…
What are the covenants of promise? It’s the Holy Scriptures.The Bible is not one Book. It is 66 Books in one Book; and that’s one of the reasons why it teaches you that my number is 666.
The Holy Bible and the Holy Quran are the representatives of that number. The Holy Quran came 600 years after the Bible, and the Bible has 66 books; so my number is 666, and I’m the only man who understands these Books. And so it says,
…The covenants of promise…
Promises are things that God made, and we call them “prophecy”; but they are God’s promises of things that are going to happen. Then it says,
…Having no hope, and without God in the world:
That’s what I was even: I didn’t have any hope of any salvation or anything. I didn’t believe that stuff they were talking about, dying and coming back. I didn’t believe that. I had no reason to believe that. I had never seen anybody die and come back; and if everybody that claimed to believe that really did, then why don’t you want to die?
I mean, really. When you get sick, you say, “Get me to the hospital!”
Why don’t you say, “Let me die so I can come back”?
You know you aren’t coming back. They made up a lie and told it so often that you started to accept it as a belief, and you falsely claim to believe in your own lie. Then verse 13 says,
But now in Christ ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh [or close] by the blood of Christ.
What is the blood? The blood is the life of a creature. Well then, Jesus said in John 6:63,
…The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Well if Jesus’ words are life, Jesus’ words are blood.
Well now, the blood of Christ, the blood of all of the Prophets, the Words (thoughts) of all of the Prophets, are coursing through my brain, which is my spiritual vein, which is my mind. And now you are being made near to the Prophets, or brought near to them by my blood. Then Ephesians 2:14 says,
14 For he is our peace…
Isaiah 32:17 says,
And the work of righteousness shall be peace;
Since I am the Word made flesh, then I am their peace to you. And so Ephesians 2:14 says,
For he is our peace, who hath made both [the natural and the spiritual] one…
For I have made both of them into one. And then it says,
…And hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us [between the Prophets and the Devil];
Remember, the Devil was doing God’s will too. If he wasn’t, why did the Lord ask him, “Have you tried Job over there?” Job 1:8 says,
And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
The Lord told Satan to go get Job. He asked Satan, “Have you considered Job?” Satan said, “Well you have the hedges around him. You told me not to mess with him.” Verses 9-12 says,
9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
The devil had to try Jesus. Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tested by the Devil. Matthew 4:1 says,
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
So what was the Devil made for? God made him to test the righteous. Okay, then Ephesians 2:15 says,
Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
Twain means two. Twain is the natural Adam and the spiritual Adam. The Scripture says in 1st Corinthians 15:45,
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
I am the first and the last. Ephesians 2:15 says,
…For to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
So I am their peace. You notice, I’ve even had Ku Klux Klan people come in here and talk to me, and they left in peace with me.
I’m not here to make war on people. I’m here to make war on that which causes people to go to war with each other.
It is an inadequate mind that makes a man want to go to war against his fellow man, instead of giving each other the courtesy of free will and freedom.
When you understand right and when you understand wrong, when you know the difference, it’s almost impossible to become unreasonable. It’s almost impossible to become unreasonable when you know right from wrong.
There is nobody on this Earth that can talk to me for a long length of time, and really talk to me instead of at me, that I can’t convince that they are wrong, if they are.
You may think that a bigot can’t be reached. You just have to know how to reach him.
It is very important that you recognize that there is nothing impossible when you know how to do it. There are things that are not possible because you don’t know how to do them; but they are not impossible, because with God (with the Truth), anything you want to do, if you know the Truth about how to do it, becomes possible.
So this is the new man. You can’t have a new world without first having a first new man.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: Therefore getting after One that was created righteous: now out of us, this One created from us an unrighteous people, because we had that germ left in us from the creation of us: A germ that was not purified, that it could not be changed into a wicked germ that we have in us.
Today another people or White people could be made from us as we stand now, regardless to how righteous we may be. We still contain the germ of unrighteousness.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: That germ of unrighteousness is what you call ignorance. When you don’t know, then that’s where the deceiver can deceive you; and no matter how righteous you try to practice yourself to be, until you know how to find out what you don’t know, you’re not complete.
Like I told you, God does not know everything. He doesn’t have to. He just has to know how to find out whatever it is He wants to find out.
You saw an example of that when He met with Abraham on His way to Sodom and Gomorrah; and He told Abraham, “I’m going down here to see if the cry of it is as bad as I’ve heard.” Genesis 18:21 says,
I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
If He already knew, He wouldn’t have to go down there. But He knew how to find out.
How do you find out?
“I’m going to go down there and just ease in there and just see how they act. I was told that these people are down there trying to force themselves on men.”
So He went down there. The angels went in there and saw that it was as bad as He had heard.
It wasn’t quite as bad, because they found Lot there; and if [those people] had just left Lot and his guests alone, they would never have known that they were spared because Lot was there. But they ran Lot out of there, and they sealed their doom.
So the Messenger was letting you know that you’re never going to get righteous until you get a complete understanding of righteousness and wickedness. Once you have a mind that is able to discern and analyze to the degree that no one can lie to you and get away with it: When you can’t be tricked any more, then you’re perfect.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: This is why we can do unrighteousness; because the germ is still there.
So the great scientist by the name of Yakub: He brought it out of us, and gave the germ a form (a body); and then taught that form His wisdom and told this man that He made: “Go forth now. Be faithful. Work fast. You have six days to do all of your work, and after that six days, the seventh day: your brother is coming from the east. He’s going to eat you up.”
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: Now the way he said it is not the exact way it was written, but the meaning is there. As the Messenger said, that his Maker, the Maker of the Caucasian, told him to “go and do all your work for six thousand years [six days], but after that time, your brother from the east will come and eat you up.
All of the Scriptures came out of the east, and they are the spiritual brother of the west, or natural mind, that was ruling and governing from the west. And He said that “the brother from the east will come and consume [or eat you up].”
Well death is to be swallowed up in victory. That’s what the Scripture teaches you in 1st Corinthians 15:54. It says,
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
2nd Thessalonians the 2nd chapter and the 7th verse says,
For the mystery of iniquity doth already work:
“Six days shall thou labor and do all thy work.” The mystery of iniquity. What is iniquity? Sin. This man has made sin fair-seeming.
It says, “the mystery of iniquity”. Why is iniquity a mystery now? Because the Devil has made evil fair-seeming.
You have churches giving free trips to Las Vegas. [smiles] I mean, you’re sending them, and you know what they call Las Vegas: Sin City.
Well what is the church doing sending you to “Sin City”? Evil is fair-seeming. If they could convince you that murder was salvation, [then] they know that they have you.
You said the murder of Jesus was God’s plan for salvation. A dead man on a stick.
Yes, you did. That’s what they gave you [that you have] hanging around your neck. They made evil fair-seeming to you.
They told you, “Go kill my enemies” even though the Bible said, Thou shalt not kill. But when he gets through with you, he says, “Do your duty”; and you said, “Yes sir.”
What is your duty? The duty of man is to fear God and keep his commandments, but the devil said “do your duty” and your duty is to “do what I say or die trying”.
They say, “Yours is not the reason why, yours is but to do or die.”
So he made evil fair-seeming. So 2nd Thessalonians 2:7 says,
For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
Who is the One that let it? Have you ever rented houses before? Who is the one that lets stuff happen? He’s the landlord. He lets it.
Then what did Yakub say? Genesis 1:26 says,
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion…
So He who let it was Yakub. He let it out, and I remember [when] the Messenger (the Honorable Elijah Muhammad) said, “You go to war with no man over what’s his. ‘Well he’s taking it from me and he’s taking it from my brother.’ Well you let him take it, so if you are going to let him take it, that’s okay.”
Yakub let him take it. He let him have dominion, so that’s okay. 2nd Thessalonians 2:7 says,
…Only he who now letteth [or now ruleth] will let [will rule], until he be taken out of the way.
The Messenger said, “He’s not going to just give up his seat. You have to take him out of his seat.”
That’s what the Messenger told us. So I’m taking him out of his seat by taking the Book out of his hand.
You see [that] I have taken the Book out of the hands of the religious people of this world. If I haven’t taken it out of their hands, how come none of them are trying to come in here and argue with me?
It’s not because they don’t want to. They can’t without looking stupid. Then verse 8 says,
And then shall that Wicked [one] be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume…
Now what did the Messenger say? He said, “Your brother from the east will come and eat you up.”
What’s another word for “eat”? Consume. It says,
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth [the word of his mouth], and shall destroy with the [understanding] brightness of his coming:
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: I want you to get a knowledge of this Saviour. That’s what I’m working forward to: His purpose, His aim. This is what I’m trying to get over to you; but I have to bring you through the history to get Him to you.
He, Mr. Yakub, the mighty Scientist and Maker of the White race, or White man, was no fool by no means. Just because He made an enemy for us, this made us still great to know that in us was the germ of a whole race of people that we could form him and teach him and then make him to rule the teacher for a certain length of time, until the people produced One greater than he.
Now today, this is our subject today. A Saviour is born. A Saviour out of the germ, out of the, who is made, out of the scrap, human scrap. Made out of that. Think over it.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: Do you know what scraps are? Scraps are leftovers.
What are we? What’s left over from the slaves. Remember, the Book teaches you that. Exodus 3:7-8 says,
7 And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;
8 And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians…
And so I’m come down: I’m a descendant from those who were brought here and treated so cruelly. I’m a descendant from them to deliver us out of the hands of our oppressors.
You cannot deliver people out of the hands of the wicked unless you can first deliver their mind out of his mind. As long as you are thinking like them, you aren’t delivered. You have to stop thinking their thoughts; and the only way you’re going to stop thinking their thoughts is somebody is going to have to show you that they have some thoughts that are better than that.
That’s what I’m doing when I offer you $50,000 if you can produce an argument that’s worthwhile against anything that I’m teaching.
If someone is offering you for free a college education, and you’re willing to stop at high school when you could have gotten more, then that shows that something is wrong with you.
This world doesn’t have anything that is so great that looks to me like you should be trying to hold on to it.
You have seen these people trying to put a man in the presidency that has 91 charges against him. Now explain this to me: How do you do that?
Remember Anthony Weiner? You go from kicking a man out of Congress for having some nude pictures that he’s sent of himself, to a man who tried to actually burn your country down, and you want to give him another chance. You want to try him again.
I told you: What are you trying to hold onto? Do you not find that there’s something mighty strange going on with this people who at one time were ruling the world, and now they can’t even agree on a sane thing like a vaccine?
They know about vaccines. They’ve been giving them out [since] polio.
By the way, polio is making a resurgence. A lot of that stuff is coming back. They said the measles is coming back.
When you ignore facts, you’re asking to be destroyed. It’s a fact that you can’t swim across the Atlantic Ocean. I don’t care how good a swimmer you are, you aren’t going to swim across the Atlantic Ocean.
So if you dive in there talking about you’re going to swim to Africa or wherever, you know they’re going to find you. Well, they aren’t going to find you. The fish are going to get you. You’re just fish food, because that’s too much of a distance for you to [swim across].
Well likewise, how do you justify not following me, when the people who’ve been teaching you and telling you they’re giving you true religion are scared to even talk to me? How do you justify going back to them?
I’m going to tell you, I’d think you were pretty stupid if somebody called me out and said I was teaching you lies, and I didn’t come out [and answer them]. And then you come tell me, “Son of Man, these preachers are over here saying that you are lying to us about something”.
Then I say, “Well I don’t want to talk to them.”
What do you mean, you don’t want to talk to them? Why wouldn’t you want to talk to them?
You’re going to let somebody get away with calling your religion a lie?
I’m not going to let you get away with calling my religion a lie. If you call it a lie, I’m going to tell you, “Come on in here and show me.”’ You have to show me.
Engineer: Excuse me, sir. We have a couple of people here. The first one is J. Sure (that’s her screenname). She says, “Have Elijah and Marvin ever met with each other before?”
Son of Man: Well first of all, where do you get off calling me Marvin? I’ve never met with Jesus.
I’ve never met with any of the Prophets, but I follow all of them; and I truly can follow them because I understand what they were teaching. But none of you all can follow them unless I teach you to follow them. As David said, my word is a lamp unto his feet and a light unto his path. Psalms 119:105 says,
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
If I don’t give you the understanding of what David meant by what he said, you won’t ever have it.
Many of you think that you know somebody because you get introduced to them. That doesn’t make you know somebody just because somebody introduced you to them. You could have been living with somebody for 20 years, 30 years, and still didn’t know them. Yet, somebody who just met them can know them better than you.
It’s just like the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. There’s a whole lot of people who met Master Fard Muhammad; but did they really know Him?
The only one who really knew Him was the Honorable Elijah Muhammad; because he was the only one who recognized who He was.
You sit up and you ask me, did I meet with the Messenger? Farrakhan met with the Messenger. How come he went in another direction?
There’s a whole lot of people who met with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, at his table. Malcolm X sat at the Messenger’s table, and never knew the Messenger.
I knew him from the first day I heard him. Why do you think I’m still a believer in him? I’m not like you all.
You all are lip professors.
I’m asking you a question now: Why are you not following me? Answer my question.
Why don’t you want to follow me? Have you been online and seen all of the things that I’m doing? How come you don’t want to help me? John 10:32 says,
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father;
Why don’t you want to join and help me do those things?
You said, a couple of people?
Engineer: The second person is Dolores Holley. She says, “I have been waiting for this marvelous speech. Listen to him. Allah is with him.”
Son of Man: Well all praise is due to Allah. See? One will be taken and the other left. This is not a joke. This is the real thing here.
Do you know how long I’ve been talking to you? I started this at 11 o’clock this morning. It’s 6 o’clock this evening now. I told you it was going to be a while.
I’m not tired. I know there’s things that you need to hear from the Messenger, so I’m going to let you hear a little bit more.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: He’s made partly from the race of Yakub, and partly from His own, just for the purpose to save you and me.
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: Master Fard Muhammad was made from the race of Yakub and partly from His own, the Black man.
So was I, spiritually though. I was made from Yakub’s wisdom that He put in the White man and from the Prophets, from my own. I’m a mixture of both in the spiritual sense. That’s why I am the Lord of both.
I’m the Lord whose mind is of Lords. [The Son of Man holds up a bottle of water] This here is a bottle of water. Didn’t they all tell you [that] when they were absent from the body [that] they would be present with the Lord? 2nd Corinthians 5:8 says,
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
Well I’m the Lord, and all of their minds are with me.
I couldn’t explain them if they weren’t with me. As the Book says in Matthew 25:31,
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the [brain] throne of his glory:
You see that all of the Holy Prophets, all of the Messengers of God: they are all with me. That’s why Revelation 19:12 says,
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns;
It’s because I’m the king of those kings; and I started off as their servant, as their student. Kings used to do that. They’d get tutors for their son.
Did you see “Dune”? Remember Paul Atreides? He was the Duke’s son, and he had teachers that he was given; but they knew that he would one day be their Lord.
The Messengers of God knew that I would one day be their Lord, and they all bowed down because Allah told them to bow down to me.
Jesus and all of them are my helpers. They are my servants. And if they weren’t my servants, they would not be telling you to submit to me. Jesus told you in John 12:47,
And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not:
Well how could Jesus be the Son of Man that’s going to judge the world if he has told you that if you hear his words, he judges you not? He couldn’t say that if he was the Son of Man. The Scripture says in John 12:47-48,
47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
You’re living in the Sabbath Day now, the Last Day, and the Words that Jesus spoke are now being used to judge you because the Son of Man is the One that Jesus’ Words is with.
It’s just that simple. This isn’t a joke. You’re not going to make a joke out of the Word of God. You can believe me or not, but you aren’t going to change what’s written.The Scripture teaches you that the Son of Man is the One that will execute the judgment; and that’s me.
[The Son of Man resumes the video]
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad: A Saviour’s Day, it’s rightly called that. We are so beloved, We are so great. A child out of the family of the Creator. Think over that. Who created heaven and earth. Should he let an enemy hold His child? Think over that. “No, I will go after Him and search my own Earth for Him, and I will bring Him again to me.”
“What’re you going to do now, Father?”
“I’m going to clear this mistake, so it never happens again.”
There will never be a robbing or stealing away from our arms some of our people by enemies. No more.
They won’t be able to do so, for you are being taught the knowledge of the enemy. And how can now he steal you after knowledge? How can he deceive you after knowledge?
[The Son of Man pauses the video]
Son of Man: If I was saying that the White man is the devil and somebody was pushing back, then there could be doubt. But the White man shuts his mouth, and the negro who used to have his mouth running has shut his mouth, because I’m not saying something that I can’t prove. If I couldn’t prove it, I wouldn’t have said it. And everybody who hears me teaching, they know that’s not a bluff.
There are so many places [where] the Scripture has taught us who the Devil is, but we just didn’t realize what was being said. The Scripture says that when the devil speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he’s a liar and the father of it. John 8:44 says,
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
You’ve never heard a people call a lie after themselves but White people. They say, “He told a little White lie.”
He wouldn’t have called it a White lie if he wasn’t the father of it. That’s what Jesus told you.
So don’t ever think that I’m saying something that I don’t know what I’m saying. The White man was calling himself the Devil a long time before we started doing it.
What kind of devil was Evel Knievel? A daredevil. Well, it’s the truth. [They called Burt Reynolds] a handsome devil. And we aren’t going to even talk about the Devil’s name, Beelzebub.
“What’s up, Bub?”
They talked to each other like that; and he’d laugh every time he’d say it, and we’d stand there listening and didn’t know what we were hearing.
So don’t ever think that this is some kind of game We’re playing and that We are calling the White man out of his name. I’m not calling him out of his name. He’s the Devil. And now I’m here to take that curse off of him.
I’m not here to condemn him for being what he was made. He’s condemning himself if he doesn’t accept me.
It’s just like you. You aren’t to blame for being a Negro. You were made that by them. But you’re to blame if you don’t want to change.
There’s no such thing as a person that does not have a free will. If you don’t like what you are, you can will yourself to change, and I’m here to give you knowledge that will aid you to become a self-saviour.
That’s the one thing about us. If we don’t like what we are, we can change. We can seek out knowledge that will make us into something else.
That’s why we are called “beings”, because at any point in time, we are either being or becoming. We are in a state of being, or a state of becoming.
Yes, that’s us. I was blind, but now I see. I was lost, now I’m found. I was dead, now I’m alive. And all of those definitions don’t mean a hill of beans if you don’t understand spiritual things. You need to have a spiritual mind in order to understand spiritual things. You need a natural mind to understand natural things. So since you are both natural and spiritual, you need a mind that’s that way; and right now, I’m the only One who has that.
If you get in class, I’m teaching every day now, except Saturday. That’s the only time I’m not in class; and even then, I’m in Prayer Service with you. Full-time school. It’s time to go to school.
If you’re not in class, that’s your fault. You don’t have a teacher that cares as much about you as I do.
How do I know that, and how do you know that? Nobody is paying me to teach you.
When’s the last time I asked you for some money to teach you?
Sister in the audience: Never.
Son of Man: Not only do I teach you, I work for you. I didn’t ask you to give me any money to pay me to go to work for you. Just fix it where I can eat, and have a place to lay my head. You’ve done that, and so I’m satisfied.
So I can get up and go to work. As long as you do your part—Since this is for you, then a rational mind teaches you that you’re supposed to help somebody who’s trying to help you.
So if you keep helping me, I’m going to keep helping you to help yourself. And when you help me, you’re helping yourself.
People stand up, passing buckets, and ask you to give them “a little more”. They need “more”.
No. Anybody that wants to really do something, you don’t have to stand up and beg [people and ask] if they have some money to share with you to help do something constructive. They’re going to do it anyway. And like I said, I’m not asking you for that for me.
I’m asking you to look at what I’m doing, and if you think it’s worthwhile, then get in where you fit in.
I’m the Lord. If you don’t believe it, it’s your loss. I did tell you, and I told you in front of White people, in front of Brown people, in front of Yellow people, in front of everybody on this planet.
I told you I’m the Mahdi in front of people who you know don’t play any games when it comes to Islam. Do you hear any of them challenging me?
Audience: No sir.
Son of Man: Okay, you remember that.
May Allah’s-Salaam-Alaikum.
