00:00:49:04 – 00:00:59:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So, my friend, it’s easy to tell our unity with this little white man. You gotta be the guy, y’all.
00:00:59:24 – 00:02:16:22
Unknown
It’s easy to tell whenever there’s a black man.
00:02:16:25 – 00:02:24:21
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I said I’m looking for your family. At this time, could we please stand for prayer?
00:02:24:24 – 00:02:30:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
In a manner in which you were most comfortable. Follow along silently.
00:02:30:22 – 00:02:47:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Surely I am being returned to thee, O striving to be upright. To he who originated the heavens and the earth. And I am not of the polytheists. Surely my prayer, my sacrifice, my life, and my death, the overall law of the Lord of the worlds.
00:02:47:05 – 00:02:50:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
No associate has he in this of my commandments.
00:02:50:09 – 00:02:55:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And I am of those who, sitting in O Allah, don’t art the King. There is no.
00:02:55:08 – 00:03:00:00
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
God with the garden, my Lord. And I am not servant. And I have been greatly unjust.
00:03:00:00 – 00:03:05:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
In myself, and I confess my cause. So grant me protection against all my faults. When none grants.
00:03:05:09 – 00:03:07:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Protection against falsehood, be.
00:03:07:15 – 00:03:11:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And guide me into the best of morals. But none can guide into the best of morals.
00:03:11:23 – 00:03:19:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But thee. And turn away from me the evil and the indecent morals. But none can turn from me. The evil and the indecent morals.
00:03:19:02 – 00:03:45:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But thee and all alone make Muhammad successful. To make the true followers of Muhammad successful. The dog did make Abraham and the true followers of Abraham successful, but surely died, praised and magnify. We know Allah, bless Muhammad and bless the true followers of Muhammad, the blessed Abraham and the true followers of Abraham. For surely know I praise and magnify the.
00:03:45:19 – 00:03:56:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
You may be seated in the name of a lot of beneficent, the Most Merciful. We give praise and thanks to Allah for his coming and appearing to us in the person of master for Art.
00:03:56:08 – 00:04:18:15
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Muhammad, the long awaited Messiah of the Christians and the Mahdi of the Muslims. We thank him for coming 9000 miles to seek and save that which was lost. As a matter of fact, leaving Paradise to come and seeking save that which was lost. And we were in such a wretched condition that usually the pattern is that God will send a messenger, a Warner, or a prophet.
00:04:18:18 – 00:04:34:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But the condition that we were in, that only God himself could elevate and raise us from that position. So Master Fard Muhammad traveled that 9000 miles to seek and save us. And in that time he was looking for a man that he might be able to deposit his very mind.
00:04:34:03 – 00:04:35:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Into a man.
00:04:35:09 – 00:04:44:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That would have the physical and psychological and spiritual constitution that no matter whom or what conditions that he might go through.
00:04:44:09 – 00:04:46:18
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
He wouldn’t leave his post. And the man that.
00:04:46:18 – 00:04:59:22
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I speak of that had and was built in such a manner was the Georgia born giant, born Elijah Poole. But because of the weight and the magnitude of the job that he had, that no man had ever had before him in the annals of.
00:04:59:22 – 00:05:01:11
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
History, and that was to raise a.
00:05:01:11 – 00:05:07:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Dead black man and woman. And when I say dead, for those who may not understand that we don’t mean physically dead.
00:05:07:10 – 00:05:14:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
No one ever returned from physical death. But we’re talking about other people who were physically, emotionally, psychologically.
00:05:14:09 – 00:05:23:01
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Politically and financially dead. But he came and with that wisdom and put it in master far to Muhammad, put it into the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
00:05:23:08 – 00:05:25:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And he proceeded to raise and elevate us.
00:05:26:02 – 00:05:47:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
So we thank our Lord for that great, great human being that has walked among us and doing that magnificent work. And it is still taking place among us today. The scriptures say that confession is good for the soul. I did not meet Master Pharaoh Muhammad. I did not meet the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, but the man on scene today who walks among us.
00:05:47:20 – 00:06:10:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
He is a messianic figure, given to us as a gift from those two, that we might study his example and rise from wherever we are, no matter how low we are. Down in the mud, we can be brought to the top of civilization just by following the example of this one man and this man. If we keep our eye on him, as his teacher told us upon his departure in 1930.
00:06:10:13 – 00:06:35:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Four, when you see him, look at him. That’s where he tells you to go. Go where he tells you to stay from. Stay from. That’s here, my ministry. Oh, I have to hold it any longer. The man that I’m talking about, he is our leader, our teacher, our God, our friend, our champion, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. It is in their name, their family.
00:06:35:26 – 00:06:37:01
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I wish you all was again.
00:06:37:01 – 00:06:37:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
With the greeting words of.
00:06:37:29 – 00:06:46:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Peace. I Salaam alaikum. How are we this morning? Family? All praise belongs to Allah. Let me just.
00:06:46:13 – 00:07:03:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Start off by saying thank you. All those that are here right now, thank you for being here on time in your seat and doing yourself the greatest service that you could do. And that is to come in here and extract from the life giving teachings of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad that is represented by the Honorable.
00:07:03:02 – 00:07:04:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Minister Louis Farrakhan.
00:07:04:21 – 00:07:12:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
So you couldn’t be in a better place today. And the reason I say that you couldn’t be in a safer place. Yes. Somebody went to a party last night.
00:07:12:27 – 00:07:14:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
At a local bar.
00:07:15:00 – 00:07:42:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That was hanging out, and somebody thought they would come in and wet the place up and for those who don’t know that colloquialism, they came in and shot it up. And because they were in that place and there was no security measures set in place, they got hurt or maybe even lost their life. Well, what we can say to you today is that you are in the safest place that you can be, because we had something at the front door when each of us came in, called the check procedure, each one of us had to undergo that.
00:07:42:22 – 00:07:52:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
There was a going over of our person. Sometimes it’s a little uncomfortable, maybe, you know, but hopefully the brother or the sister they brought us in, they they were they were courteous.
00:07:52:05 – 00:07:54:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
They handled us gingerly. They showed a little.
00:07:54:16 – 00:07:55:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Love to us or a lot.
00:07:55:27 – 00:07:57:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Of love. And they gave you.
00:07:57:09 – 00:08:19:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
A wonderful smile. And then you went and you checked in. But thank you for submitting to this check procedure, because it very necessary today, because we want you to be able to hear the truth coming across this rostrum in a very comfortable manner. We don’t want you to have to be looking over your shoulder, looking in front of you, behind you, or to either side thinking that somebody’s going to do something to you based on what they just heard.
00:08:19:14 – 00:08:31:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Or maybe he was beefing and you say, oh, I know he’s going to be here too. I didn’t know she was going to be here. Well, you don’t have to worry about that because we have leveled the playing field. And we can take the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.
00:08:32:00 – 00:08:37:00
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
For that wonderful, wonderful set of all three belongs to Allah. Dear family.
00:08:37:00 – 00:08:51:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
We came here today because we wanted to get something that can help us through the sojourn that we are on, you know what I mean? There’s a war going out on out there outside those doors that most don’t.
00:08:51:03 – 00:08:52:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Even know about.
00:08:52:16 – 00:09:08:15
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But you know what’s even deeper? There’s a war going on inside of us is raging right now in our minds. You know, things that are real or imagined. We’re having thoughts about how we’ll handle this, how to handle that. What if this happens? What if that happens?
00:09:08:18 – 00:09:11:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Y’all. Y’all with me? Yes. All right, well, we all.
00:09:11:23 – 00:09:33:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Understand what that is. And we are all faced with these kind of dilemmas on a daily basis. So that’s why we come here. Because this is a clinic. It is a spiritual and psychological and in some case, a physical clinic that can help us with the things that we go through out there in that war zone. Call the general public and we want some answers.
00:09:33:10 – 00:09:57:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Brother. How can I get through this, sister? Whoever’s on this rostrum, they. You want them to be able to give you something, a roadmap, a guide in order to get out of what we’re in. Right? Right. And what better place for you to be and get that? And in here in Muhammad’s mosque, number 12, or any house where this teaching is going on right now, you can get with that what I just mentioned some aid to what you’re going through.
00:09:57:21 – 00:10:12:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
So, dear family, I want to start off very quickly. Just, you know, something that’s been on my heart. You know, I the thing that I see a lot of is how you, you know, and the thing with our youth is, is that we we were on the Saviors tour yesterday.
00:10:13:00 – 00:10:16:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Oh, it was beautiful. Oh, man. It was wonderful. We were out.
00:10:16:26 – 00:10:36:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
There in the streets. It was a little humid, but I, I gave us a blessing. I mean, we had a breeze. As humid as it was, we would get a breeze. It was a stirred up and just motivate us even more. And then once you came in contact with one of your brothers or your sisters and they actually gave you audience and you were able to talk to them, and then before you know it, they wanted to talk and you listen to them.
00:10:37:02 – 00:10:46:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s just motivated you. It gave us energy to go on, and we hit a number of places, and it wasn’t a short stay either. We hung out. I mean, a righteous.
00:10:47:00 – 00:10:50:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Hanging out, you know. So we talked that to a lot.
00:10:50:16 – 00:11:10:06
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
So we talked to our people. We interacted. Yeah, I think at some point we had about 100 brothers that was out there with us. I mean, we were getting it in. But the beauty of the thing that we hear most is from our youth, you know, is that, you know, they’re troubled. Yeah. You know, because they’re not understood.
00:11:10:08 – 00:11:22:22
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And in truth, it’s our fault. Those of us who are a little older now who came through our, you know, our youth and we’re getting a little older and we kind of like trying to get our stuff together. You know, I got to get this to get I got bills, I got to do this, I got to do that.
00:11:22:25 – 00:11:25:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But we don’t pay attention to our youth.
00:11:25:05 – 00:11:44:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And they have situations going on. You know, the Honorable Louis Farrakhan told us. He said the problem with America is that she warehouses her wisdom, which is the elderly. They lock them up. All that life experience, you put it into a, an assisted living home or a nursing home and all that wisdom they have. It’s just being warehoused.
00:11:44:18 – 00:11:50:06
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Nobody can tap into it. And then he says, you abuse your future, which is the.
00:11:50:06 – 00:11:51:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You.
00:11:51:18 – 00:12:09:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Abuse your future. So if you cut off your future, there’s nothing left for you, right? That’s the end of you. So he says that what needs to be done in this country and all over the world was that the elderly and the youth need to come together. And wouldn’t it be a beautiful thing if they just didn’t come together?
00:12:09:09 – 00:12:22:22
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But they could come together. And one of Muhammad’s houses, and they both could get that teaching and they could talk to each other. Can you imagine what a man who was in his 70s could share with a young brother who is in his teens or in his early 20s?
00:12:22:25 – 00:12:23:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Brother.
00:12:23:25 – 00:12:43:21
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I walk that path before. And then when it gets to a certain point after he didn’t drop his spill, then he allowed the young brother to share what he’s going through. Do you see the you see the balance in that, the the energy that’s drawn from each one as we relate the subject matter of what’s going on in our lives and the troubles we’re going through, that’s healing for us.
00:12:43:23 – 00:12:55:04
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But if you just happen to have some of these teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, as represented by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, no matter what we’re going through, we can come up out of that. We we, old or young.
00:12:55:07 – 00:12:57:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Male or female, rich or.
00:12:57:23 – 00:12:58:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Poor.
00:12:58:25 – 00:13:17:22
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Because this teaching is designed for each one of us. And when I say design, you know, they make sense, right? If you’ve ever seen a tailor or a seamstress, they have something called, a tailor made suit. That’s where you get the suit off the rack. You know, you take it to a tailor, they pull it, you know, tighten, and then they sew it to your dimensions.
00:13:17:24 – 00:13:18:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But then they got something called.
00:13:18:28 – 00:13:21:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
A custom made suit.
00:13:21:22 – 00:13:41:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
This is where they take the tape. They measure your dimensions, my dimensions. And then they take it a measure up the fabric, and then they cut it out and it fits you to the letter. And you know the unique thing about that, that there can be somebody else who is the same size as you. But if they put that suit on, they don’t fit in the same way.
00:13:41:11 – 00:13:59:15
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s that’s what a custom made suit did. So that’s what it is with the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad is custom made for you and me. It don’t fit my brother right here, the way it would fit me. It don’t fit brother name the way it fit. It’s just a tiara over here. It don’t fit, brother. I mean, the way it does, brother Ali or Brother Gregory is.
00:13:59:15 – 00:14:01:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Custom made for you.
00:14:01:12 – 00:14:05:12
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And, all we gotta do is just put it on.
00:14:05:14 – 00:14:08:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And wear it and keep it on. Actually, don’t don’t.
00:14:08:21 – 00:14:11:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Don’t be a fair weather wear. You know, when the weather’s okay. I’m.
00:14:11:21 – 00:14:29:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Well, I’m gonna take it off now. Things going good for me now, King. We got to stay in this tissue. But let me stay on to you just for a moment. You know, they got something they call identification bias when it comes to our youth, especially black, black youth, black males and black black females. No, no, this is deep.
00:14:29:14 – 00:15:00:04
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Our young boys and girls. This is. Check out. The definition of it is when black youth are perceived as being more adult like by adults and authority figures, they are more likely to receive harsher treatment and less leniency. Think that over now, Taylor and Skyler, same age. They go out there, they’re running their car through a group of people, kill 20 people, cripple them, main folks, I mean just but and when I say Taylor and Skyler, you don’t talk about white folks, right?
00:15:00:07 – 00:15:01:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I’m talking about, you know, for those who don’t.
00:15:01:27 – 00:15:13:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Get that catch that little caveat, but that’s what I’m talking about now. They’re the judge to look at them and say, well, oh, oh, holy, he’s entitled. He didn’t know what he or she didn’t know what they were doing.
00:15:13:19 – 00:15:15:18
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I remember a few years ago.
00:15:15:20 – 00:15:32:18
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
White girl, young white girl, young white boy. They had a baby at a hotel. She gave birth to the baby in a hotel, and they murdered the child. They got it and slammed his head against the wall and just. And then threw it in the trash like, And you know what? They murdered that child. And the way they handled that.
00:15:32:22 – 00:15:55:21
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
You heard about it a little bit. Then afterwards, you hear anything else about it? And then the coroner said that the only way that the skull was fractured, fractured on this infant and the reason that they knew it was slammed against something very hard repeatedly because the infant’s skull is very soft, but the slam it against something so hard that you crack it up, that’s a murderer.
00:15:55:23 – 00:16:02:11
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
But, you know, they were lenient with those who they got time, but not the kind of time that, you know,
00:16:02:13 – 00:16:08:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Ray Ray, you know, honey, but you know, man. Man. No, no.
00:16:08:29 – 00:16:25:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
No, they they they got hard time for that. Matter of fact, they might have been getting a chair. See that there’s always a difference with their own people. And when it comes to our. But when it comes to our youth, they’re always harder on them. And sometimes it’s not even the officials in public or strangers. Sometimes it’s right in the home.
00:16:25:27 – 00:16:47:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Mama got a boyfriend who just got out of prison. She got a 14 year old son at home, or daughter. And pardon the expression, but this Negro come in out of prison. He tells her it’s either me or them, and she put our own child out in the street for this man. And then a few weeks later, they’re not even together anymore where her son or her daughter is hurt.
00:16:48:00 – 00:17:07:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
I’m not saying that our sister is a bad person. She’s just misguided and she needs this. Teaching the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, as directed to us by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. Oh, praise is due to a lot. So our children are angry. And did you know sometimes family that when we have them in our midst, it’s not always good for us to beat us?
00:17:07:19 – 00:17:27:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
It ain’t always good for us to do election. Sometimes we have to listen. That’s right. That helps them. You know, sometimes just giving people audience, give them a healing because nobody listens to them. Well, that’s where our youth are today and our brothers and sisters are always and we know that we came through this. We’re always subject to racism.
00:17:27:05 – 00:17:53:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And if you don’t know what racism is, it’s discrimination or antagonism by an individual, community or institution against a person or people on the basis that their membership color and in a particular racial ethnic group, typically one that is labeled on minority or marginalized. Well, we know that as black people from the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, we are not a minority.
00:17:53:18 – 00:18:11:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right. We need to prove that at no limit of time, because in our lesson, we ask the question, what is the population of the original nation in the wilderness of North America and all over the planet Earth? And the answer is 17 million. And with the 2 million Indians makes it 19 million all over the planet Earth.
00:18:11:22 – 00:18:23:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
4 billion. 400 million? Yes. Well, I don’t sound like 4 billion of us. That don’t sound like no minority. To me, that sounds like the majority. No matter how you look at it.
00:18:23:10 – 00:18:26:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
If you are full 4 billion, you like to look.
00:18:26:08 – 00:18:30:21
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
At the 400 million, 4 billion just tells you, right? Yeah. They went in. They don’t talk.
00:18:30:23 – 00:18:32:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Well in numbers anyway.
00:18:32:18 – 00:18:51:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
We’ll get back to that other part of it. At the time that we’re asked a question, what is the population of the colored people in the wilderness in North America and all over the planet Earth? And the answer to that is, in America’s 103 million all over the planet Earth, 400 million, but we outnumber them 11 to 1.
00:18:51:16 – 00:18:58:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
The thing that’s missing from us is love for each other. Yeah, love. We don’t have that devotion.
00:18:59:00 – 00:18:59:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Towards one another.
00:19:00:04 – 00:19:18:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Because they they did such a work on. I’m really not trying to teach a subject going on because one day we got to go into that slavery thing. You just really don’t know the real depth to two of it. I mean, it goes deep. They did a work on us. And would you believe that it was that color that when they call them the colors, I mean, King James was a homosexual.
00:19:18:27 – 00:19:21:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Winnie. So was William Shakespeare.
00:19:21:19 – 00:19:28:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That was a boy friend. Another subject for another time. Just wanted to open your eyes of y’all. All right, all right, let’s move.
00:19:28:08 – 00:19:36:10
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
On to family. You know, the Honorable Louis Farrakhan teaches us in the self-improvement study guide that the four great impediments of.
00:19:36:10 – 00:19:37:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The world.
00:19:37:16 – 00:19:41:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Is racism, sexism.
00:19:41:10 – 00:19:42:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Materialism.
00:19:42:22 – 00:20:09:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And nationalism. Impediments, meaning those things that keep us from developing and growing to our optimal self. What about the racism? I’m better because I’m white and you black. However, first of all, I don’t care who you are if you breathe in the same air that we breathe in. You had no control over how you got here. But for you to come into a world and then think that you’re better because of a color of your skin.
00:20:10:01 – 00:20:23:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And that’s hypocritical. Because every time I look up on the beach, white people land in the sun trying to, I mean, they roasting, getting skin cancer, trying to get brown. Just a little brown.
00:20:23:09 – 00:20:23:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right.
00:20:23:26 – 00:20:37:22
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And you know, James, I make it sound like land on the beach and getting brown and. No no no that ain’t, that ain’t be no, no I ain’t trying to be black. Yes you are. You don’t have no melanin. And then you bathe in yourself with butter and margarine and all that stuff, trying to even to tone on yourself.
00:20:37:28 – 00:20:53:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And you’ll get a little skin color because anything that is natural can absorb the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Anything that’s unnatural reflects the sun’s ultraviolet rays. This is why they get skin cancer. They don’t absorb it. They reflect it. The same thing with truth. They can hear the truth.
00:20:53:23 – 00:20:55:04
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
They won’t absorb it.
00:20:55:06 – 00:21:06:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
They’ll reject it, and then they’ll try to change it. Well, God said, in the Bible, you’re not supposed to eat, eat pork. I mean, you may not know you can’t eat all of it, but some of it is. Okay.
00:21:06:22 – 00:21:07:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It’s all right.
00:21:07:29 – 00:21:08:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
You can have a little bit.
00:21:08:19 – 00:21:10:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Sometimes if you go to.
00:21:10:05 – 00:21:32:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Your doctor, your doctors tell you all this. You need to back up on that. On the bacon and sausages. Okay. Just he don’t tell you to stop. Why don’t we tell you to stop? Because at the American Medical Association is in the business to make money. Yeah. So the cure, the money isn’t in. The cure is in the treatment or the mistreatment.
00:21:32:07 – 00:21:47:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
So your diagnosis, you say, okay, well, you take this, come back. And, you know, we don’t we don’t we don’t follow instructions. Well, you go back and tell me, man, how had the medicine worked for you? I was I’d, Hey, it worked. Okay. We know we wouldn’t to take. We take one a day.
00:21:47:08 – 00:21:50:15
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
3 or 4 days later, you know? No. Nobody in here.
00:21:50:16 – 00:22:02:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Nobody in here. But I’m just saying, that’s how we are. We don’t follow the instructions. Then he prescribe something stronger, and then we do more harm to ourselves, and we start to take it. That’s right. When all we had to do was follow the instruction and we could have came up out of it.
00:22:02:18 – 00:22:03:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right. But the real.
00:22:03:16 – 00:22:26:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Instruction was the lead at home alone, right? Oh, I got to say this. We were out yesterday, you know, in those Labor Day people barbecuing and it was a lot of hog on the grill. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It was a whole lot of hog on the grill. Some of the blocks were so blue with smoke that you couldn’t see down the block to us, your visibility in the wintertime when it’s snowing, visibility is five miles or whatever.
00:22:27:01 – 00:22:28:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
The visibility was almost zero.
00:22:28:20 – 00:22:47:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
At some point. The smoke was so thick. But check this out. Did you know that when chicken and beef are cooked on the grill, the smoke goes up into the atmosphere and it evaporates? But not pork. They don’t evaporate. The smoke is so heavy and stays low. But check out is heavy. Is that trick now? Wormed it in the smoke.
00:22:47:17 – 00:23:01:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
It caused it to stay low and then. No. Remember, Richard, we shouldn’t even be around it. We shouldn’t really. We shouldn’t touch it. But if you breed that for so long and you ain’t had that in your system, you start to get sick, give you a headache, you get dizzy, you get woozy.
00:23:01:23 – 00:23:02:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Brothers and.
00:23:02:05 – 00:23:40:04
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Sisters, this is a problem. One more thing, and I’m gonna close this out. I listen to this in the Bible. The Honorable Louis Farrakhan is talking. It teaches us. How can we know? Except they have a teacher. And how can they have a teacher? Except he be sick. Whenever a man loses his ability to read Allah, God’s will, and that which is around him or her, then it is incumbent upon Almighty God a lot out of the abundance of his love and mercy for humanity to raise a prophet, a messenger, and a pastor, to teach us the will of our Lord God, and to give us the privilege and opportunity to submit our will, to
00:23:40:04 – 00:23:48:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
do the will of our Lord God, and to come into favor with all our God. We have a man in our midst, and as such, today.
00:23:48:04 – 00:23:49:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
He is our leader.
00:23:49:11 – 00:23:52:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Our teacher, our guide, and our friend, the Arab.
00:23:52:22 – 00:23:57:01
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Minister Louis Farrakhan. So again, we want to praise be to Allah. If we want to.
00:23:57:01 – 00:24:14:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come up out of this condition that we in, let’s keep our eye on God. At this time. I want to bring to you one of the helpers of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan in the cause of Islam in the Delaware Valley region. He is not a sit behind the lines and watch the men go out kind of minister.
00:24:14:12 – 00:24:26:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
He goes out to the front with us. He was out in the streets with us yesterday and we felt strong. We can see our leadership in the Delaware Valley region right there with us, ready to deal with anything that came before.
00:24:26:05 – 00:24:29:15
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Let me bring to you dear family, brother.
00:24:29:18 – 00:24:33:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
The Delaware Valley student regional Minister, Rodney Muhammad. Let’s bring him on.
00:24:33:19 – 00:24:41:16
Unknown
With a round of applause. Somebody come on! One.
00:24:41:18 – 00:24:44:18
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Salaam alaikum. All right.
00:24:44:20 – 00:25:06:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
In the name of Allah, the one we are was the true and the living God. We thank him. He’s a revealer of all truths to send to of all prophets of whom we make no distinction. We do thank him for Moses and the Torah, Jesus and the gospel, Muhammad and the revelation of the Koran. But I’m a student of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad is life giving message.
00:25:06:29 – 00:25:42:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And indeed, I’m most thankful to Allah for his own intervention in our affairs in these last days. In the person of Master Fard Muhammad, to whom praise is due forever, we, cannot thank him enough for finding one worthy to pour himself into that would receive him completely. And the Most honorable Elijah Muhammad, his exalted Christ, a man who, if we accept him, it is just as if we accepted God Himself right?
00:25:42:13 – 00:26:15:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We thank Allah for that kind of representation. But he said, A law has made me to take his place among the people. But he told his star pupil, I’m making you to take mine. That’s right. Making one to do something is the progressive tense. That means it’s in the process, it’s in the works. But the Honorable Louis Farrakhan said to, a handful of us at our last meeting with him, it’s no longer in the progressive tense.
00:26:15:28 – 00:26:40:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He’s not making me. He’s made me, And so the first thing that hit my mind, flying back from Chicago when he said that, I said, he’s a made man, right? My goodness. So I think a lot for, their student, their servant, an apostle. I lead leader, teacher and guide today, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and their names.
00:26:40:00 – 00:27:13:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I greet you with the greeting words of peace again. Salaam alaikum. Thank you all. Thank you, Brother Joseph, for your words of, insight into a marvelous, package called the Good News. When Paul got to Rome, the first thing that came out of his mouth was. I am not ashamed of the gospel. Go ahead.
00:27:13:04 – 00:27:50:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And I thought about that because the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to Minister Farrakhan, I like Paul more than Peter. Paul is the reason that the world knows about Christ. If you study the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan without us even planning it, he is the sole reason that the world knows about the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Teach all praises to Allah.
00:27:50:07 – 00:28:17:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And he’s an example to the world that, no one is going to make him back away, right? I remember once he shared with us that they wanted to challenge him, even in Mecca. Come on. Him on this principle point, the cardinal point of the Nation of Islam. And he said he wasn’t letting him back down.
00:28:17:10 – 00:28:39:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He was letting him back down from the, Honorable Elijah Muhammad is teaching to us that God in person had taught him here. They didn’t want to hear that in Mecca. And then, he didn’t say a whole group of soldiers got behind him. He said, mother, Kody just came and stood at his side. The last thing I remember, he said, we ready to throw down on this.
00:28:39:28 – 00:29:16:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We that’s the kind of leadership that we are on when it comes to certain points. We just can’t fuzzy around it. There’s no other explanation for it is put in a pointed way in cogent terms as point number 12. All right, all right. So I’m thankful for his coming to give us such, a stand. Before we go into anything, as I got here and I had the books that I wanted, but I forgot all the notes that I had put down.
00:29:16:06 – 00:29:43:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But I’m so thankful to the effort. I went to Savers Tour, student regional captain Anthony Muhammad, for helping to put this marvelous thing together. Praise be to Allah. And, my social media, I mean, hip as you all, you know, but my little social media thing, I’m at 600 people already responding. And all of the comments coming in.
00:29:43:16 – 00:30:10:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Yes, sir. That, I was saying, man, this is needed. This is needed. I wouldn’t care if not one guest showed up as of yesterday. What I know is you soldiers, wearing the leather out on your shoes, you put hope in a lot of people. Yesterday in the city of Philadelphia. All praise is due to Allah.
00:30:10:29 – 00:30:48:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We know deep inside we need to be disciplined. Better. That’s right, that’s right. And nobody got the courage to say it. So and so. The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said to every black man that wants to do something to bring safety and decency to the black neighborhoods and communities throughout America. The only thing he told him was then, you know, we don’t require you to join us, but you should come and get your training from the Fruit of Islam.
00:30:48:03 – 00:31:14:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And you know. There have been black men that have been out here in Philadelphia, and I believe some of them are very sincere, but even in us, and we can only work with what we’ve been given right? We can only work with what we have accepted. Many of those that are working out of sincerity. They never accepted. The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.
00:31:15:02 – 00:31:57:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And when you don’t accept him and you put him to the side, you put the wisdom of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to the side. All that comes with him. He’s not separated from that. There is no rejecting Farrakhan without rejecting the wisdom of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad that is in him. He gives a heartbeat to that wisdom and the training, of the men who belong to Islam in North America, that the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan understands that every black man does not want to come under this structure and discipline.
00:31:57:10 – 00:32:36:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Right. You will have added your sincerity and the grace of God. You will have some success, but you could see just from people looking that those that have stayed under the structure and the discipline that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad gave to his student, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, how it lit the people up right, and something deep residing in their nature and soul, knows that that’s exactly what we need in our community.
00:32:36:05 – 00:33:12:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And guess what? You know, there was, a couple of young black boys there just looking up at the discipline of the men, and they just broke from the ranks of the savage and said, that’s what I want to be. That’s this. This is what I’m looking at now. You gotta remember, these children have already had planted in them, fields of misinformation and false doctrines and concepts of life, and things that you can only learn on a savage level.
00:33:12:15 – 00:33:44:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But immediately when they saw the FOIA, it wasn’t just some black men, but it would discipline black man. Right. And so it took my mind back to the Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaching us about Mr. Yaqoob. Mr. Yaqoob, at the age of six, saw two pieces of steel on the periodic table. Right. That’s from chemistry, John. For all of us that cooked chemistry class and.
00:33:44:28 – 00:34:12:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We cooked chemistry, but we was mixing stuff up out there to snort and shoot up and everything. We don’t have a we ain’t been to a chemistry class and nothing, but we would mix and stuff, putting in our sets show you how insane we were, and, but the two pieces of steel Mr. Yaku saw on the periodic table, had the same content right?
00:34:12:05 – 00:34:45:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
One piece of steel didn’t have a different set of elements in it than the other piece, which taught me that my 42 years in the nation. I’m no better off than the man that just wrote his letter yesterday. Are you following me now? The difference in the two pieces of steel was that the molecules in one were organized, and it made it attract the other piece, because the piece that was organized, it magnetized itself.
00:34:45:03 – 00:35:17:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It didn’t have to go after nobody. It draw people to it just by looking at it. It was on a like Mr. Yaqoob said, if I could undisciplined the masses of the original people, start making trouble with lies and things, caused them to fight and kill one another, then they live in chaos. I would organize my troops and disciplined the few, and then we would be able to rule over the undisciplined masses.
00:35:17:03 – 00:35:44:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So now, Yacoubian reverses here. The science is still true, but righteousness is on the scene. Now we’re being acquainted with the nature that we were created in. We don’t have to be acquainted with this book covered with Arab scholarship. This book comes out of the nature that we were created in. We don’t have to chase Arab culture.
00:35:44:04 – 00:36:10:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
This book got its own culture. Are you following now? And the Honorable Elijah Muhammad brings us that culture. And that’s what the Honorable Louis Farrakhan gave us. So, thank you, brothers, and thank you for that, as we think. And a brother of the first person to respond to me as somebody who’s calling on black men to follow him.
00:36:10:25 – 00:36:34:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And that’s all right, because he said he’s sincere. I can’t say he’s insincere, but he he hits me back when he sees the brothers out there. We can use your support, but he wants our support to come under his command. I said, brother, we already have a camp. I’m not coming. I didn’t join this and follow two captains.
00:36:34:13 – 00:36:55:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Come on. When it come to, how we tactically going? Are you following what I’m saying? See, they want us to come and turn us and the Keystone Cops. We’ve been made gods. We ain’t going back. As Kamala Harris say, we’re not going back. So? So all praise is due to Allah.
00:36:56:00 – 00:37:21:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
For the greatest teaching in the world, it would take that for a man who had the hardest job of any man that ever lived. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad. And if you meet with God, I’d love to see just who else could meet with God. Come over here and say that and be fired up. God ain’t teaching nobody else but you.
00:37:21:08 – 00:37:36:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He call you here? Come on. How many would be humble enough to go out when what God taught you and say, you know what, God? I need a helper for? He didn’t say I could do it all myself.
00:37:36:21 – 00:37:37:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right?
00:37:38:01 – 00:38:05:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And so he prayed for a helper. Yes. And the answer to that prayer is the man is leading us now, and he intends to teach us in a way that you never need another man to come teach you again. That’s what he so after him. If I see any of us following somebody else, you just you you on a path for inferior teaching.
00:38:05:04 – 00:38:06:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come on.
00:38:06:25 – 00:38:14:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because if you following somebody after this man teach you, you should be teaching someone,
00:38:14:10 – 00:38:20:00
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right. Real talk.
00:38:20:03 – 00:38:35:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The month of September. And I should start off. I want to see every every registered member of this mosque out next Sunday.
00:38:35:14 – 00:39:13:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Death. Death has to be an excuse. So you can’t make it. But unless you died spiritually. I want to see you in this room next Sunday. I’ll send out, something written as a call. But what we have to say next Sunday to you, the members. I’m not going back over it again. And if the absence of clarity disturbs you that much, you can go somewhere else.
00:39:13:28 – 00:39:26:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Join a church or another organization of something. But I’ll see you next Sunday. Inshallah.
00:39:26:14 – 00:40:09:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
This month we are on a subject. The power of God in you. You. Yes, sir. Not the power of God out there. With the power of God in you, knowing that the God out there can’t do nothing for you or me, that we won’t let him do through us. Because if he does it outside of us, we’re waiting on him to do it like he’s a waiter or something.
00:40:09:13 – 00:40:24:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Come when you go. Sit down in a restaurant and make an order that you don’t get up and go to the kitchen and bring the plate back. You sit there and wait on him to bring it to you.
00:40:24:25 – 00:40:44:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s how we understand God. Yes, through false teaching. That’s how we treat God. But God, I want some of you that. Here’s my address and zip code. I’m waiting on you to bring it to me.
00:40:44:24 – 00:41:13:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
God, where are you? I’m waiting on you. And we don’t hear him sing. I’ve been waiting on you to see. To open up to me. And if you open up to me. Then what you ask for. I’m going to bring it. But I can only bring it through you. To bring it through me means I got to participate in what I want to see.
00:41:13:15 – 00:41:22:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Come about. The Negro mind has trained us.
00:41:22:03 – 00:41:58:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
To learn how to be helpless. That’s true. I didn’t say helpless. The Negro mind is open to someone teaching you how to be helpless. Don’t. So that if you don’t have what you want in life, if you’re not becoming what you want to be in life, you’re always blaming somebody else. Look at it. That’s a Negro mind.
00:41:58:13 – 00:42:16:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
There’s a power today that won’t allow anybody to keep you from becoming what you want and getting what you want. If it’s in line with the righteousness of the one that’s got that power.
00:42:16:20 – 00:42:17:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
It’s right to.
00:42:17:26 – 00:42:38:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Help you bring it about. And he refuses to to do it for us. But he won’t deny us to do it through us. He won’t let us down. All praise is due to a love.
00:42:38:16 – 00:43:17:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
In the Koran that, we just trying to get to have just a couple of passages, if you don’t mind, or, I Allah am the seer. Now, what do you see there? It’s what we don’t see. It doesn’t say we are the seer. Right? You see, there are a lot of places in the Koran say, you know, we adorn the heavens, we put mountains in the earth, right?
00:43:17:06 – 00:43:59:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We made heaven as a structure. Then when we are not responsible for a certain act, the Supreme one separates the we. He said, I am the seer. That’s to tell us that the only way we will see is when we submit to the eye. Who can see? I allow him to see who? What does he see? And what do we see?
00:43:59:10 – 00:44:19:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We’re looking at a situation now overseas, and the media is constantly feeding the minds of the people. And of course, the media is the vanguard for what’s entering the human ear on a regular basis.
00:44:19:23 – 00:44:31:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And it may seem like just a flood of information, but in it, Satan is shaping how you think, right?
00:44:31:17 – 00:45:07:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I’m the Seer, a book whose verses are characterized by wisdom. Then they are made plain from one wise and aware. You know, one person said you could tell the knowledge, but, the difference between knowledge and information, because you’re always adding on but wisdom, you start subtracting. It’s just how you get a distillation of the real picture that’s inside of the body of knowledge that you get.
00:45:08:02 – 00:45:32:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It was a exercise they used to give us in in grade school, and the picture the teacher would put the big picture out in the classroom. And she said, in the picture is a little boy holding a donkey, and a donkey doesn’t have a tail. So each student is given a tail with a pin in it. And your job is to pin the tail on the donkey.
00:45:33:04 – 00:45:36:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But guess what? The picture just not showing it to you, right?
00:45:36:24 – 00:45:37:15
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right.
00:45:37:17 – 00:46:17:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And you know what you have to do to see that little boy and the donkey. You got to keep studying the picture to finally you say, hey, I see it, but if if someone called you and you turn like that when you go back, you got to start all over again. Come on. And when I reflect on that exercise, I say that’s something like this process to Farrakhan has taught damn near everybody on this planet and many have walked with him and said, I see it, but I’m a distraction for so they can’t see their way back.
00:46:17:05 – 00:46:38:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You know why? Because when they look at the picture again, they look at what Satan showed them and they no longer can see what Farrakhan taught you was already in the picture. What time Satan can’t destroy truth, but he can hide it, doesn’t it?
00:46:38:21 – 00:46:42:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Look at it. Look at that stuff.
00:46:42:16 – 00:47:09:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And when somebody come to tell you, man, the truth is there. Stay with it until you see it. Yeah. There were people with Moses by the time he taught 2 or 3 times. Rather than saying all praise is due to a lie, you sent us a deliverance. I’m mumbling a little.
00:47:09:12 – 00:47:15:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
They only left because Pharaoh cut Social Security. Look at that.
00:47:15:06 – 00:47:18:08
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Look at the more teeth, Oh, Jesus.
00:47:18:14 – 00:47:21:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Everybody. They had a federal job. They got fired.
00:47:21:24 – 00:47:22:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Look at it. Look at it.
00:47:23:01 – 00:47:53:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Well, I took the civil service exam. You’re not supposed to fire me on that project. 2025 is in effect now, They didn’t leave because Faith had in it their heart. They left because they were catching hell. And when they got out there, the complaining got so bad that it messed up. Most of them.
00:47:53:07 – 00:48:26:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And they got to the land flowing with milk and honey. And by the time they got there, they supposed to walk in as rulers. But in a mind they was grasshoppers. Now if you study the insect world. The ant is a master engineer. He’s not the only other creature on earth besides man that declares war. I mean, when they get ready to go to war, they get they troops together.
00:48:26:19 – 00:48:52:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
They know who they going after. That’s right. He’s a strong creature. He lives at least ten times to 20 times his own weight. Right. That. Their security is fierce. As soon as you get to the to the entrance of the ant hole where the check room is, they just start knowing that you.
00:48:52:24 – 00:48:53:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Jesus.
00:48:53:15 – 00:49:25:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Hey, you need to study these creatures. Look, the Bible says go on to the end. Consider his way and be wise. Right. So all insects shouldn’t be overlooked here. That’s right. When you study the land of milk and honey, it’s described with two fluids. One comes from a mammal. The milk. But it’s not just flowing with milk is flowing with honey.
00:49:25:03 – 00:49:52:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So the other one comes from an insect. So when you study the bee, the best of some were the same quality as they aren’t. They have a queen. They got protection for the queen because it’s only through the queen, the royal jelly that, their species can continue. But every time the bee stings you, he gives up his life.
00:49:52:15 – 00:50:09:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
They don’t live after they sting you. So when they’re in a fight, they know they die. You know, just think of a soldier like that already. Know I’m not coming home. So I’m taking as many down with me as I can.
00:50:09:09 – 00:50:12:06
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Wow, look at that. So.
00:50:12:08 – 00:50:41:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But the grasshopper in. That’s what they said. That’s the way we look at ourself. The grasshopper is about the only member of the insect world that doesn’t really take care of his young arm. Turns up everywhere it go. It doesn’t save anything, you know, it spends all this money. You got nothing save no plan. If grasshopper don’t have no plan.
00:50:41:28 – 00:51:19:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s why God use it as a plague on Pharaoh. He sent an intensified grasshopper, almost demonized, called locust. And these guys just came and tore up everywhere. They don’t build nothing. That’s why you don’t go and say, oh, that’s a grasshopper house. They don’t build nothing. They just tear down. Does that sound familiar? Because these are the kind of people Moses had complaining all the time in the wilderness, to the point that when God’s promise was coming, they was ready to fight the believers.
00:51:19:17 – 00:51:24:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Isn’t that something?
00:51:25:01 – 00:51:56:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So, the will of God. May not always be understood by people. They don’t see the whole picture. And when you don’t see the whole picture, it cuts off your range of vision. What do I mean? If you’re a Negro and still a 21st century slave and somebody is teaching you, you won’t get all the way over here and become a god.
00:51:56:20 – 00:52:18:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s a range of vision, a more. But as you keep going through test and trial, because that’s the way to God through test and trial, pretty soon you get a lot of people saying, I can’t see it.
00:52:18:27 – 00:52:39:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But we never we never stop and think, okay, you can’t see what God promised. What do you see? And you know what we see? Egypt. I’m going back. I heard Walmart was hiring and I’m going back.
00:52:39:29 – 00:53:13:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because, Amazon merged with so-and-so. So they say they’re going to have some jobs. It’s a here’s a god trying to get your own kingdom. Look at it. Look at where you pay yourself. But the slave has been so condition and hardened into a way of belief that you fight against the God who promise. Now, he didn’t already killed 14,072 of them.
00:53:13:06 – 00:53:31:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Moses prayed so hard for them, but he got tired of them mumbling. And so Moses prayed. But the Lord said, you know this prayer won’t get answered in the way you want it.
00:53:31:17 – 00:53:33:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right?
00:53:33:27 – 00:54:05:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I’m going to send fiery serpents on. No, no. But Elijah Muhammad said, he’s fiery serpent. You don’t mind me talking about this? The fiery serpents are angry white people. The messengers said. This is the symbolic picture. You gotta admit, white folks are getting pretty angry right now. Just understand. And and we. We’re so upset. They won’t say the vice president’s name right.
00:54:05:24 – 00:54:29:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And this this is a big issue. And they talking about it on the shows and everything. But the minister said they ain’t finished insulting you. That’s right. They’re going to keep going. There’s a man who accused her really of sodomy in So they said he should he should resign from his position and everything. He said, I’m not stepping down.
00:54:29:21 – 00:54:55:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I’m not resigning. Neither am I taking the post down. And he told me, he said, Megan, Kelly from Fox News. Remember? She she’s off both programs now, but she has a podcast. She said she she slept her way to the top. Just just think of this. Now, see, this is getting uglier. Yes. And ugly, but but look how law is using.
00:54:55:14 – 00:55:17:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You know, they had they just called him Sleepy Joe Biden with, you know, but with this black woman up there, you notice all the ugly stuff come out of him. Now, this is a person who even Malcolm X said when he was a disciple, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. She’s the most mistreated person in America. The black woman is right.
00:55:17:21 – 00:55:45:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And, one of the mistreatment that the black woman has suffered is no protection from the black man. So right now we got a black woman on a national international platform under attack. No black men that you can see of. No, they haven’t held a press conference. They haven’t said nothing on any kind of show. Of course.
00:55:45:26 – 00:55:58:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Michael Eric Dyson tried to go after a woman who wouldn’t say a name. Right. But these other ugly comments, so you can see they’re angry.
00:55:58:29 – 00:56:00:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yeah.
00:56:00:16 – 00:56:34:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And everything that they have written up in a plan that cost him $27 million to put together. That means you’re serious about this plan. The highlights of it show when we look at it, because we have stayed in a dependent state too long and did not hear the voice of Mr. Muhammad telling us that we, even though we’ve been enslaved, even though we’ve lived through Jim Crow, we now at least have an opportunity to do something on our own.
00:56:34:04 – 00:56:46:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
See, you gotta stop waiting on somebody else to love you before you start doing something for yourself. And this is what Mr. Muhammad said is going to be your biggest. You so scared that we hate white people?
00:56:46:23 – 00:56:47:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
When to stop.
00:56:47:29 – 00:57:06:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Them, when you turn around and see some white people around us and we’re shaking hands and doing thing. Oh God, y’all, y’all are selling out knowing that we’re trying to rule. And they still on the planet.
00:57:06:11 – 00:57:22:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We’re not going to rule with them just sitting over to the side. We’re going to rule them right that are still here before they are gone. See the Negro mind thinks you can’t be free to. They’re gone. The worst thing that could happen is that they leave.
00:57:23:01 – 00:57:34:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because then you’ll see the ugly truth. That we got a big problem with each other. You don’t need no white people here for us to fight each other.
00:57:34:21 – 00:57:43:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Let God work on his own timetable because he’s the seer.
00:57:43:26 – 00:58:24:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So he says a book whose verses are characterized by wisdom. Then they’re made plain for one, wise and aware that you should serve none but Allah. Surely I am to you from him a warning and a giver of news. So whoever this man is, he’s been given as a warning and a giver of good news. But his call is not to worship him, right?
00:58:24:12 – 00:58:58:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
His call is to worship God. Yes. I challenge is to trust that he’s connected with the God who first shows his chief characteristic. I am the seer at. So we’re going to read some words from What God guide the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan to say. He didn’t say, you know, I studied on this and I was thinking it over and everything.
00:58:58:00 – 00:59:25:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He said, this study came with the guidance of Allah, right? Because what I’m about to say to you, he guided me to see what? And you can turn on every news program about what’s going on in the world today. And none of it reflects what the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan showed us. Why? Because they are not following the God that can see Jesus.
00:59:25:29 – 00:59:56:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So we shouldn’t run around talking about what they said. Something else they don’t believe. Like you believe. And they’re not going to see like you can see. So that was a land that was flowing with milk and honey. This is why the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said these words, I am going to lose most of my followers. Yes, when a law is about to fulfill his promise.
00:59:56:11 – 01:00:06:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The last test after trial, after hardship, after sacrifice.
01:00:06:28 – 01:00:08:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Is temptation.
01:00:08:08 – 01:00:09:24
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
T season.
01:00:09:26 – 01:00:14:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Not the singing group?
01:00:14:09 – 01:00:16:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come on. Jesus, bro.
01:00:16:07 – 01:00:39:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You know. I have bills like everyone else. Somebody keeps calling me. Little white girls on there sounds real official. We’re trying to lend you $50,000.
01:00:39:27 – 01:01:05:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
No, but I’m just saying. Now you come up out of the blue. I’m black in America. Average die, You know, I can use $50,000. But look. There wasn’t always a time you get a call like that.
01:01:05:21 – 01:01:48:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And. I can take care of all your bills and help you do some things. You know, as the minister was talking about a beautiful name that the honorable Elijah Muhammad gave to Cassius Clay. Yes. Muhammad Ali. One worthy of praise and the Most High God who was the only one worthy of this great name. White America first was going to reject him for even taking a name like that.
01:01:48:21 – 01:01:54:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
See, you gotta go back to 1964.
01:01:54:03 – 01:02:20:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But they end up giving him the torch to start the Olympics the last time, right? Even with the Parkinson’s setting in. And remember, Muhammad Ali said what? He has came from Allah. He didn’t. He didn’t let the doctors tell him why he has that. He knows he walked away from Elijah Muhammad. He knows he walked away from a man who taught him, who was taught by God.
01:02:20:24 – 01:02:29:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And he he he settled for Arab scholarship. All right.
01:02:29:14 – 01:03:03:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And as a result of that beautiful name that resonated in the Muslim world back in the 60s, to see a heavyweight champion and believe me, the Muslim world didn’t engage in sports right? But when a heavyweight champion had the name Muhammad Ali man, they were singing his praises throughout the, Muslim world in the 60s. So, as we understand the name now had been sold.
01:03:03:28 – 01:03:29:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And the very Caucasian that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad warned Muhammad Ali about owns 80% of the name. Yes. So every time they you and they using the name right, his family only get 20% and they take 80%. You know who.
01:03:29:26 – 01:03:59:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s that’s a lot of money. Well, you don’t cost nothing to walk away from Elijah Muhammad. That that’s a big cost right there. Let’s look at that one. You never going to come out. With a prophet when they tempt you with something. So that was, that was, that was going to be the last test before walking into the land of promise.
01:03:59:15 – 01:04:28:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Let me finish just reading this. And so we don’t serve none but him. He not only warns us, but he brings us good news. So you want in people that’s against the will of God. We talking about the the power of God in us? And you giving good news to those that would accept God, ask forgiveness of your Lord, then turn to him.
01:04:29:01 – 01:04:43:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Now, why should I ask forgiveness? Because I need to be forgiven, basically. See?
01:04:43:05 – 01:05:15:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
When Adam and Eve were put from the garden and Adam knew Eve. Remember, the first child she bore was Cain. Then the Bible says. And he knew her again. And then she came forth with Abel. Over time, the Bible says, as two of them worked. And if you put them in a mass or church perspective, when each presented their work, the Lord accepted one.
01:05:15:24 – 01:05:24:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But he rejected Cain, and Cain’s countenance fell.
01:05:24:26 – 01:05:39:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because of the correction of the Lord. Sometimes when a wise one is guiding you, their correction is process like a rejection.
01:05:39:11 – 01:05:57:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So Cain was angry and the Lord said, if you do right by this offering, will not your offering be accepted by me? I’m giving you a chance to get it right.
01:05:57:14 – 01:06:25:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He couldn’t even see that on. So at length he couldn’t kill God. But he killed the one that God favored right now, this is what happens before the believers go into the land of promise. There’s a group that won’t go because they can’t see it. But if God is going to favor you, they come in after you. We’re not talking about somebody, a stranger coming from five people.
01:06:25:21 – 01:06:27:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You soldiered with.
01:06:27:14 – 01:06:28:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Jesus.
01:06:29:00 – 01:06:32:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
All right, I got your attention now.
01:06:32:16 – 01:06:36:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yes, sir.
01:06:36:05 – 01:06:40:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Come on.
01:06:40:19 – 01:07:16:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He will provide you with a goodly provision if I get asked for forgiveness. Now. To an appointed term. And then bestow his grace on everyone, endowed with grace. And if you turn away, I fear for you the chastisement of a great day to a large. Your return. And he is possessor of power over all things. Now surely they cover up their breast to conceal their enmity, from him.
01:07:16:09 – 01:07:33:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Now surely, when they put their garments as a covering, he knows already what they hide. Think about it. And he knows what they made public. That just means with God there’s no secrets. That’s right.
01:07:33:08 – 01:07:34:01
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
01:07:34:03 – 01:08:03:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I mean, when you think you keeping a secret from God, you have misperceived, right? You have already deceived yourself. That’s right. Just just just put it in your mind. Even though I’m hiding this from everybody else, he knows it. He knows what they had, what they make public. Surely he is the knower. What is in the breath now?
01:08:03:12 – 01:08:08:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
01:08:08:25 – 01:08:52:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said this. Everything in creation is a manifestation of the will of God. He are you create it. I am did you create yourself? All right. So if we’re created and we didn’t create ourself. Then how do we answer our manifestation in the world. Good question. He’s saying everything in creation is the manifestation of the will of God.
01:08:52:10 – 01:09:05:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We established last week that the will is the faculty of conscious and deliberate effort.
01:09:05:21 – 01:09:33:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Conscious. And that’s a deliberate thing. This is why they say the saying God don’t make no junk. Use no matter what somebody else think of you, no matter what you think of yourself or been made to think of yourself. However you’ve been conditioned, God didn’t make any junk. Now you can treat yourself like that. All right. Take your time.
01:09:33:12 – 01:09:42:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But he had something greater in mind.
01:09:42:18 – 01:10:22:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
All of creation expresses the attributes or characteristics of this mighty being. So then has this, that, that that means that if it’s in creation, whatever characteristics principally that are being express through that life, it’s all living inside of that being. And if this is talking about the universe, then all of those principles and laws have to live inside of us because he made us after himself.
01:10:22:13 – 01:10:24:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come on now, okay?
01:10:24:09 – 01:10:36:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The honorable Elijah Muhammad said he that started it all who originated it? He’s not the master. He is the originator.
01:10:37:00 – 01:10:37:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Cool.
01:10:37:28 – 01:10:46:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Oh, if he was the master, then you wouldn’t have to make all things new.
01:10:46:22 – 01:10:50:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
According to him. Oh, you.
01:10:50:29 – 01:11:09:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He’s not a student of another teacher. The originator. He studied himself. That’s right. Look at. And in the study of himself, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad says in theology at time, he raised the level of his knowledge right.
01:11:09:25 – 01:11:12:10
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come.
01:11:12:12 – 01:11:29:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Knowledge about what? About himself. Well, when did he study the creation? It came from him. When he knew himself, he knew what came as a result of him. There was no creation without him, right?
01:11:29:12 – 01:11:33:00
Unknown
That’s right.
01:11:33:02 – 01:12:08:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The originator of the heavens and the earth, the ministers say. But the will of God is the power behind the throne. The whip and watch it. The will of God is the power behind the universe. The will of God is the power behind creation. The Catholic Church. The will of God is the power behind its maintenance, and the will of God is behind the sustenance.
01:12:08:29 – 01:12:09:23
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
You see, you.
01:12:09:26 – 01:12:22:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
See, if a God is going to tell me, look, I want you to worship me. Don’t don’t worship nobody else, then he’s going to show me that I can provide everything.
01:12:22:11 – 01:12:24:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right.
01:12:24:04 – 01:12:27:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You told me. Don’t. Don’t look for nobody else come to you.
01:12:27:26 – 01:12:29:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right.
01:12:29:09 – 01:13:06:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
There’s verse in the Koran. A law says rely on me and me alone. Come on. That means I got the power to bring anything that you need in your life. I got the power to help you to become what you want in your life. What is best for us is that if he got this kind of power from his will, that we take our will and submit it to his arm, he would come out better.
01:13:06:14 – 01:13:08:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
What have we lived on?
01:13:08:20 – 01:13:09:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
We’re.
01:13:10:01 – 01:13:15:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Until we came to know him. Some Farrakhan’s preaching. We were self-willed.
01:13:15:27 – 01:13:16:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right? Jeez.
01:13:16:29 – 01:13:24:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But you have a faculty of conscience and deliberate action. You know what you wanted to do? I know what I wanted to do, right?
01:13:24:09 – 01:13:27:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right, right.
01:13:27:08 – 01:13:29:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And where to get us.
01:13:29:06 – 01:13:30:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Look at that.
01:13:30:18 – 01:13:52:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
What has it done for us? So the minister told her, see the mind of the originator. He did not want us to get out of his mind. Yes, sir. What do you want? If you want people to remember you, you write a book. Okay.
01:13:52:24 – 01:14:18:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He wrote a book called universe right, right. Do you think it’s not a book? We’re born out of a book. That’s right. What was written in the book? Freedom’s in the book he read justice right out in the book you can’t see the words, but you know that what goes around comes around.
01:14:18:10 – 01:14:19:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And that’s.
01:14:19:16 – 01:14:40:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
What library. Did you get that out of? Where’d you get that book? How do you know? You know yours is coming, right? You so evil, you reap the whirlwind of evil that you are. So you can’t find that. Who’s the author of that? See, that’s already written in creation. It’s a.
01:14:40:26 – 01:14:44:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Book. Yes, sir.
01:14:44:21 – 01:15:11:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And the Bible says God is not mocked. Him. You can go around quoting God, living ungodly, but you ain’t going to be. You’re not going to be reckoned on what you quoted. You going to be reckoned on how you lived, what kind of death. So whatsoever a man have sown, that’s what he’s going to reap. What book did you get that from?
01:15:11:05 – 01:15:35:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The universe. They got a tool called a boomerang. You can throw it. And when you throw it, it looks like it’s going to go where you want. But it as it turned its circles right back around from where it came. So there’s an unfailing boomerang, a reciprocity operating in creation. He’s the God behind it. He thought of it.
01:15:35:15 – 01:15:47:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Are you following? Yes, sir. Come on. He didn’t think of it. And go away. He’s still thinking right through his creation.
01:15:47:13 – 01:16:05:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So we can access that and prosper. A God like that tell you. Don’t worry about how much money Chase Manhattan has, right? Don’t worry about what Wall Street is doing and everything. You know, you connect here.
01:16:05:28 – 01:16:06:18
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right?
01:16:06:20 – 01:16:15:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Right. They got a resource I am the source. All right.
01:16:15:10 – 01:16:40:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Look, he set up a pattern. The greatest force out of this book is called love. And guess what? It’s not blind, right? And you can take a little seed and planted in the earth, and next thing, it can grow into this big tree with all of these fruits, you say, where did they get the material.
01:16:40:19 – 01:16:42:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
From this.
01:16:42:05 – 01:17:04:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Little bitty thing. Where do they go? How did they reach in the air and feet from the light of the sun? Where did the even the root come from? That’s feeding off the mineral life in the earth to cause this thing to grow.
01:17:04:05 – 01:17:13:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Now, these kind of things weren’t legislated. Democrats can’t vote it in. Republicans can vote it out.
01:17:13:29 – 01:17:20:16
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Oh, you.
01:17:20:18 – 01:17:54:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He’s set up a pattern so that you say the female dog I have is pregnant now, and soon she’ll deliver a litter. She won’t lay eggs. Why not? There’s no confusion in this. Fourth, see, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan teaches a see, the force is not blind. Everything is made to, create after its own kind. I show you somebody is thinking.
01:17:54:08 – 01:18:03:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
No mistakes are made. A bird won’t have a puppy, Cows don’t lay eggs. Right. Come on.
01:18:03:02 – 01:18:05:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Somebody sees you.
01:18:05:05 – 01:18:15:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So somebody is thinking nothing else working for us. But this is working. You can count on it and depend on it because it’s his.
01:18:15:24 – 01:18:17:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Will.
01:18:17:20 – 01:18:31:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That teaches us that a person that lives under his will becomes a reliable human being who you can trust on any day that Farrakhan’s going to tell the truth about anything that’s going.
01:18:31:01 – 01:18:43:03
Unknown
On anywhere with anyone. Why? Because he’s living under the will of God.
01:18:43:06 – 01:18:51:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We burn leather on the sidewalks of the streets of Philadelphia yesterday. That’s right.
01:18:51:18 – 01:18:55:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Now we’re.
01:18:55:10 – 01:19:11:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And the brothers were using the codes and things to try to get some of the people to just come out and hear a word that’s right for no compulsion in religion, right? Right. That’s right. You listen to it and see. Is it agreeable?
01:19:12:01 – 01:19:12:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right.
01:19:12:15 – 01:19:30:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It’s with what you’re looking for in life, because some people have said, that’s what I’ve been looking for all my life. I just didn’t know how to name it. I didn’t know how to describe it, but it connected with me.
01:19:30:24 – 01:20:03:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
See, man. Come on. So God set this pattern up as now when you follow the designs of designers, big designers, they get the stuff in the magazines, Vogue and everything. They go to these big fashion shows every year in Paris, and models come out and they’re looking at dresses and outfits and things. But before the model puts it on, the pattern already been cut out.
01:20:04:00 – 01:20:06:17
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right, that’s right.
01:20:06:20 – 01:20:28:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And so many years you will see certain patterns. Then all of a sudden a new designer will come up and say, I’m making some new kinds of designs, and they change the pattern. There’s a pattern in the universe that nobody can reverse right.
01:20:28:29 – 01:20:29:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
To.
01:20:29:28 – 01:20:47:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Nobody that has exercise, power and authority over the thousands and millions of years on this planet have been able to reverse what the originator has set up right.
01:20:47:09 – 01:21:18:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So when these when these fashion models come out, they’re, they’re they’re, modeling patterns that have been designed, but when a new designer comes in, then they can change the pattern. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad represents somebody that honors the old pattern. Yes. Come on, come on. But he said, behold, I make all things new for a new. That means a new designer has come.
01:21:19:01 – 01:21:41:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He’s he’s established some rules. Now that’s we know he’s not adverse to the old order because there’s a picture of this man when he came holding a Koran. That’s why that he didn’t write.
01:21:41:18 – 01:21:48:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said before he left in 1934, he wrote one himself.
01:21:48:06 – 01:21:49:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Do you?
01:21:49:16 – 01:22:01:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And that book has been put away to the powers of this world? Have been sufficiently broken? Is. I’m going to go too far in that. But see.
01:22:02:01 – 01:22:02:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
They go on, and.
01:22:03:02 – 01:22:38:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The new designer has to create something, we wondered. Beneficent. The 55th saw the Koran there. If you notice the order in it, it starts with the beneficent. Stop right there. See, beneficent is not just somebody that gives you things, provisions that you need is somebody who knew what you needed before you got here. I’ve used that example many times, that when a woman is pregnant, other women will get together and.
01:22:38:02 – 01:22:45:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Holy baby shower for her. What are they doing? They’re providing gifts for a life that haven’t really got here yet.
01:22:45:25 – 01:22:47:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yes, sir.
01:22:47:10 – 01:23:08:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You don’t. Your birthday don’t start. When your mother first conceived you your birthday. Don’t start till you born. That’s right. Isn’t that something? But in truth, we were here already. There just had been no manifestation of it.
01:23:08:05 – 01:23:09:02
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Real time.
01:23:09:04 – 01:23:36:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So at the baby shower, we say, well, when the life gets here, they can use some of these. Here’s a gift. And someone gives this kind of gift. And then most of the gifts are something they can use materially. And somebody thinks about their mind, so they give them some little things to hang from the ceiling. So as the child is lying on his back, it can look up at these things and in their own way, start pondering.
01:23:36:15 – 01:23:37:00
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come on.
01:23:37:03 – 01:23:38:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Oh my God.
01:23:38:26 – 01:23:39:14
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Sir.
01:23:39:17 – 01:24:09:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
If we and I limited understanding of life and self and God can think about making provisions for life before get here with a simple baby shower, how much more has God? Yes, we already saw what we were going to need materially, emotionally, spiritually and make provision for that. So the 55th story, it’s it starts out with the beneficent.
01:24:09:08 – 01:24:39:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Then it doesn’t say created man. It says beneficent taught the Koran. Look at it. Now what I got to say is okay the how are you going to teach a Koran. You know that is already here before the man is created. The man got to be here first so he can write, you know, the Koran. We’re taught that, that we’re creation and then we make, we make Koran or history.
01:24:39:16 – 01:25:03:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
She’s to go for 25,000 years. It didn’t say, it was made and given to us. These men wrote it. So the this beneficent he starts out teaching the Koran. It says, then he created man right. Well, wait a minute. Now, who did he teach the Koran to.
01:25:04:01 – 01:25:05:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Create this man who he.
01:25:05:29 – 01:25:29:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
See, there’s a man with one coming right? That he’s going to teach him the perfect understanding of this Koran. And out of that, the Koran is going to become the root of that man. Right. See, you could see the Honorable Elijah Muhammad receiving this man.
01:25:29:17 – 01:25:54:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Going to his first meeting, it didn’t take him several meeting. He knew the first time who this man was, right. That’s right, that’s right. This man began teaching him day and night. All the way through the night, sometimes further into the day. And as I said last week, I don’t think he got tired and was yawning.
01:25:54:23 – 01:25:56:01
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Come on.
01:25:56:04 – 01:26:28:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because he know every cell. We gotta go through that today for a minute. But the power of a cell and a man who knows how to use a word that that God light life and power in it, he know just what to say to trigger a cell that keeps you from getting sleepy. Right, right, right. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad always trained us when someone’s yawning and getting sleepy, while someone’s teacher had a person removed, put some water on their face or something to refresh.
01:26:28:02 – 01:26:52:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because when people go to sleep, when you’re teaching, he said, it takes away the desire to teach. When somebody is really not listening. So he knows this. And so he began to teach long hours. And I was reading one time where he taught, and it was ten hours. He said, Allah has taught me how to keep you awake.
01:26:52:25 – 01:27:19:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
See, what’s the power of a cell? We got 14 billion of them. Come on, brain cells. And knowing the power of a cell and how to deliver something that keeps somebody from falling asleep teaching and seeing those days, don’t think. Okay, I got, you know, I’m typing this stuff in. I’m writing this stuff down. In the early years, the minister taught us you weren’t allowed to take notes.
01:27:19:27 – 01:27:24:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We’re gonna look down upon Elijah Muhammad. Are you fasting this up here? Yes.
01:27:24:25 – 01:27:25:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Look at that.
01:27:25:21 – 01:27:57:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He said you weren’t allowed to turn around in a meeting. If you heard a big scuffle, you spoke. Keep your head to the front. He said they train you. Don’t even turn around. Come on. We look. Yeah, we we’re not well, okay. Yeah. Look at here. You show. So this new designer, if he’s creating a man out of the perfect teaching of this book, then he gotta do like the first one did.
01:27:57:26 – 01:28:30:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You can’t just create somebody and then not maintain them. Right? So before he leaves, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad of Peace, of folded up paper in his hand. It was the 23rd Psalm. The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. Wow. And he went with that. And so his maintenance came from that to the point that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, you know my bank, it’s not Chase Manhattan.
01:28:30:17 – 01:29:06:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Come on. My, my bank is the hearts of my people. Yes. It ain’t. I’m never going to be bankrupt as long as that’s the bank. Because. Because what I have goes to the heart. Look, the the word we have sustains us. So, I mean, this is powerful because this power, since we’re part of the creation, is behind us.
01:29:06:05 – 01:29:14:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s right. That’s this power is behind us. And.
01:29:14:19 – 01:29:50:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Further down, the minister says our laws will never fails. Those, our laws will never fails. So when he thinks of something and brings about deliberate, it never fails. That’s right. You know, really, failure is quitting. Yes, sir. Failure is not. I attempted something and it didn’t work. When you attempt something and it doesn’t work, you just got a lesson in what doesn’t work.
01:29:50:23 – 01:30:17:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s right. So you can take that off the list and find out what does work. Are you following now? See, we think it like it didn’t work. I’m finish. I’m throwing in the towel and everything. No failures when you quit. Yeah, look at it. Oh, yeah. When you give up on yourself. So he says a lost will never fails.
01:30:18:01 – 01:30:50:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
There is no plan by any scholar or scientist. No power in the heavens above or in the earth beneath that can circumvent the plan of Almighty God. So don’t read something in the Philadelphia Tribune or something and get get scared. Right. Like we don’t we didn’t think of something right. Let me show you how well and how deep this God thinks.
01:30:50:20 – 01:31:26:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He said the minister goes on. In fact, the plans of the present world leaders were all taken into consideration before they were even a thought in the mind of their father. You look at that. He hadn’t even thought about making a devil. And God already thought, now, if you play, if you’ve ever played the game of checkers, you know that checkers is more a game of opportunity.
01:31:26:13 – 01:31:31:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Somebody moved and you see, oh, like a double jump.
01:31:31:22 – 01:31:50:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You know? Yes. Sometimes you don’t see the whole move till you do something. You say, oh, I got another one and you get it. So checkers is much more game of the moment. Yes. And you, you become skilled at how to take an opportunity. Yes, sir. But chess.
01:31:51:00 – 01:31:52:22
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
We. Come on.
01:31:52:24 – 01:32:17:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Chess is a game. You can’t even play it without thinking. Five moves ahead. Then that means you’re not only thinking about. I’m getting ready to move this piece here, but here. There probably do this or that one over there. And when they do that, they’re, I make sure I got my king and queen. So. So I’m a keep here.
01:32:17:22 – 01:32:47:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But you thinking moves ahead. You can’t you. It’s impossible to play it. It’s not a game of opportunity. It it requires some thinking of not only ahead what you would do, but you’re only thinking what you would do based on what you know. These are the options, right? That’s right. So when we tell you that a God already thought about their world and what they was going to do, this ain’t no fantasy.
01:32:47:16 – 01:32:53:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
This is science, man.
01:32:53:26 – 01:33:08:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And when you start operating in the knowledge of God and living by his wisdom in you, talking about a God that had steps ahead, he already saw us coming. He already saw what they were going to do, right?
01:33:08:13 – 01:33:09:27
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yes, sir.
01:33:09:29 – 01:33:18:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Come on. My goodness.
01:33:18:28 – 01:33:52:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Before they were thought in the mind of their father. Their father was Mr. Yaqoob. Now Mr. Yaqoob didn’t see the end. And that taught me as a wise scientists who were made to predict up to 25,000 years of activity from the thinking of people, that when you’re evil. Yes, you lose that power. Look at that said, if you were evil and knew.
01:33:52:17 – 01:34:09:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Man, if I go through with this, I will be destroyed. Man. You know what? I’m going to cancel you. Kill you. You hit your cell phone. Yeah. Y’all cancel that plan. We ain’t never. But your evil blinds you.
01:34:09:08 – 01:34:10:13
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
01:34:10:16 – 01:34:37:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And you can’t see the. And you can only see what you want to do right now. See. But remember at the gymnasium brother Ishmael was so clear about how God were he. If he does something today it’s not just for today. He’s thinking way down the road. When God acts and does something. When God sends a man like the one we’ve read from the Koran, I’ve been.
01:34:37:13 – 01:34:51:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I’m a warning to you and I bring good news. He thought of that man eons before that man came in existence.
01:34:51:25 – 01:35:03:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Their plans were no. He already knew what they planned. Then the minister goes on. Their scheme was known.
01:35:03:17 – 01:35:35:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And so? Rather, he didn’t say so. Allah destroyed their plan. Allah took their plans into consideration and instead then he places his hand over their plan. You all see, this is what that’s. The plan is on me. My work best. Best. The plan is has more to do with. I know what you got planned right than right. And I’m not going to destroy your plan right.
01:35:35:27 – 01:35:57:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But I’m going to put my hand right over your plan. And when you think you work in your plan for your in you really helping me. But because you evil with your plan, you can’t see where you going to end up here. Yes, sir. That’s right. But now the more Elijah Muhammad writes about Yaqoob, he was the wisest of his time.
01:35:57:19 – 01:36:01:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But he wasn’t wise enough to see what the end would be.
01:36:02:00 – 01:36:04:00
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yes, sir. Jesus.
01:36:04:02 – 01:36:16:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The only way he came to know the end was we had to reveal it to him. Right. That’s the Book of Revelations. It’s really not the last book of the Bible. It’s the first book, right?
01:36:16:22 – 01:36:18:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That’s right. Jesus.
01:36:18:09 – 01:36:31:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The first book was to show Mr. Yaqoob he’s the father of this world.
01:36:31:15 – 01:36:37:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
When Allah created the creation.
01:36:37:19 – 01:37:05:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
As the Honorable Louis Farrakhan had taught us, it’s it’s been made to express his attributes. Are you following? He set up principles that are written in his book. And a law by which everything that’s created has to function out of his group. And if you live according to the law of your creation, you are a success.
01:37:05:11 – 01:37:32:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So you can’t get out of the creation. The people that we talked about last week, they’re stuck in space. They’ve used another term delayed by slight delay. You know what that is? When you’re down there trying to get somewhere you can’t get you. But they really stuck this up. And and so they, they going to come home around February or something now.
01:37:32:08 – 01:38:00:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But way down the road from what they had anticipated. And if they go, if they start getting claustrophobia and go crazy up there, they’re not going to show you the news no more. They’ll talk about it. But right now they’re interviewing them. We’re having a great time. We’re doing it. You know. But but when you start looking like you ain’t coming back, they’re not going to show you that.
01:38:00:29 – 01:38:04:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s right.
01:38:05:02 – 01:38:06:23
Unknown
This is.
01:38:06:26 – 01:38:35:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So. He places his hand over there playing. Watch this. What he does, he places his scheme over there. Scheme? You have a scheme? Yeah. We’re going to do this to one this way. We going to treat him and stuff. But you don’t even see what you’re writing for yourself. And the minister said to us, as they every time you devalue another person, you devalue devaluation yourself in front of Allah.
01:38:35:03 – 01:38:57:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Your value just went down with him. And see, what you don’t want is to be on a plane and a plane dips. We used to always say the first thing you think about, what’s my relationship like with God when we’re. Yeah, because this here, I need a good relationship with him. Make sure I come up out of this situation.
01:38:57:19 – 01:39:11:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I mean, I’ve always been taught the messenger said none of none of those that believe him will fall out of the sky. Yes.
01:39:11:08 – 01:39:22:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So even their wicked schemes only help to bring about the fruition of his will.
01:39:22:02 – 01:39:51:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That is a mighty powerful being we are dealing with. When he says be and it is certain. See the, the three things that come with us when the life germ is traveling to meet with the egg to make the first cell of life we were taught. Purpose is with you, power is with you. Because the life germ can’t travel without power.
01:39:51:20 – 01:40:17:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And direction is with you. It knows where to go. Isn’t that something? Yeah, that before we actually became a fully developed being and was born and grew up and everything, we already knew where to go. When we were just a life journey. Yes. You wouldn’t confuse is what you’re doing over there hanging out and stuff. See we did that.
01:40:18:02 – 01:40:47:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We was on a mission. Why? Because purpose was with us. If it’s a life’s journey, the purpose is life. Yes. You see a man when you’re dead, a man has to come to you and say, I am come that you may have life right and have it more abundantly. What happened to the life you started with Christ and we lost it.
01:40:47:20 – 01:41:19:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You can. You don’t pay the cell phone bill. You got the new apple. Whatever. I’ve what number they on? It look nice and everything. I tried to call you, but what happened? You know my bill. I got to get my bill straight. So what’s wrong here? The whole phone is there. All the colors and everything. Line is dated now.
01:41:19:12 – 01:41:49:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So we’re walking around, breathe. And people think when we say we’re with the dead, we should just be in a graveyard. Is something like that. Because out there, they not doing nothing. But if you really look here, we’re not doing nothing. Just the human. The human being is dead to the nail. Why? The line is dead from a God who says your thoughts are not like mine, and so your ways are not like mine.
01:41:49:20 – 01:42:19:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And manna from above and yours are from beneath. See? So we we got these principles, cosmic principles, we call them that we still got to live by. Whether you, Democrat or Republican, independent or don’t bother at all whether you’re Christian and Muslim, whether you are, agnostic, atheist or something, you still got to live by the cosmic principles that are in this creation set up by the originator.
01:42:20:00 – 01:42:56:15
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But Satan wants his own world right? So the biblical scholars say Satan has arranged his own world on cosmic principles. The first one is force, right? The second one is greed. The third one is not ambition, but selfish ambition. You see, a lot of people have been conditioned to only think about themselves now, right? You know, I’m telling the truth.
01:42:56:18 – 01:43:11:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s why I don’t want to be bothered with this. I don’t want to be bothered with that. I don’t want to go. What do you want to be bothered with yourself? And if we leave you to yourself, you find out you don’t even get along with yourself,
01:43:11:21 – 01:43:26:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And he is so degraded, the human being. You got a struggle. I’m not talking about color. Now. You gotta struggle just to feel good about yourself. How many people wake up and feel 100 about that? We say to 100. You not feeling all.
01:43:26:26 – 01:43:33:07
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Of that matters. It real talk to.
01:43:33:09 – 01:43:52:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Yeah, well he’s got forth. He’s got greed, selfish ambition. Right. And sinful pleasure. So people think righteous people don’t have pleasurable moments and do nice things to have pleasure. But Satan wants you and sinful pleasure.
01:43:52:24 – 01:43:54:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right, right, right, right.
01:43:54:23 – 01:44:23:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He taken the harmonious, God given attraction of the man and woman. He’s corrupted that found, pornography now. Yeah. Is taking over the natural inclination of the man and the woman. So now you’re looking at the, what do you call it? The, the reality shows. And all it is, is a bunch of foolishness, right?
01:44:23:24 – 01:44:24:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right.
01:44:24:23 – 01:45:00:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But the human being is made, you know, for entertainment. They’re watching it, and sometimes they’re talking about the people who’s. Well, she should have did this when he did that. And then you think of somebody live down the street in some reality program they talk about, because they personalize these people right into your life. You know, and, so the natural, union between the man and the woman, it’s been turned to look more pornographic now, now then, it’s being reduced to economic terms, girl.
01:45:00:05 – 01:45:35:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And he ain’t got no job. He ain’t got no CEO car. He’s on the bus and he ain’t working. It ain’t worth it. You know. And and people have gotten themselves down to, you know, the male is just here to pay bills, right. That this is what they’ve done to us now. Right now. We were walking yesterday and we were trying to determine the rent that some of our people were paying for these small dwellings where they don’t really look after them properly.
01:45:35:04 – 01:45:41:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And then someone said, if you’re not on section eight, it’s $1,200.
01:45:41:10 – 01:45:42:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Right?
01:45:42:22 – 01:46:07:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I said, $1,200 to live like this. And you can tell it’s unsafe around there at night. The people saw the fruit of Islam. Mostly. All the women were coming to the door waving. Now, you know, we keep these doors shut and you got to bang on them to talk to them or something. They’re not they’re not likely. They’re not being made to be open to people.
01:46:07:23 – 01:46:29:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So just think of what they’re doing. Not only is it $1,200, if you’re not on section eight, you cannot have a man. So seat policy is set up. So so that if you if you want to be able to at least have a, a roof over the head for you and your children, no man can be there.
01:46:29:27 – 01:46:55:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Even try in to be a protector and a provider with whatever this man gives him out of this world. Come on now. So we’re living under the cosmic principles that have been arranged by Satan’s kingdom, and it has conditioned us. This is why it says in the New Testament, I think it’s in the book of Romans, conform not to this world.
01:46:55:28 – 01:47:27:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Don’t beacon form to it, because that’s what they’re trying to do is conform us to this world. But we have to be renewed with a renewal of the mind that what the church does, out of tradition to try to break from this every year they hold church revival. Yes. Revival means that we’re trying to revive ourselves, to keep ourselves in the way of God, in the way of his will.
01:47:27:16 – 01:47:34:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And now we’ve learned from the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan that his will never fails.
01:47:34:07 – 01:47:35:09
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
01:47:35:12 – 01:48:04:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Yes, sir. If I really want to become a man, I can become a man when I’m walking in God’s will. Yes, sir. And if I want to be a better man, I can become a better man in his will. But if I rely on Satan’s will and the cosmic principles that he has arranged, I could end up, addict for pornography.
01:48:04:02 – 01:48:05:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Right on my laptop.
01:48:05:20 – 01:48:07:01
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yeah. Oh.
01:48:07:03 – 01:48:35:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
This is what his world has set up. Yes, sir. And once you become pornographic in your thinking, you don’t see a woman as a whole creature. You break her down into parts, her backside or her breast, or this, that and the other. And out of foolishness. Many women follow these principles and they treat these parts of their body like it’s a master’s degree.
01:48:35:16 – 01:48:38:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Yes, sir.
01:48:38:06 – 01:48:39:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Call that.
01:48:40:01 – 01:49:01:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
This is. This is not to put us down to hurt anyone’s feeling. I’m just giving you his intention and God’s intention. Yes. God so wants you to see the woman in the light that he created her in. He wants her covered up so that her beauty is not a distraction for us to see the mind.
01:49:01:25 – 01:49:02:04
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
And.
01:49:02:04 – 01:49:20:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The heart of this woman, Lord, that just because you know she’s showing them, they make us think. You can’t tell a joke unless you take your clothes off or you can’t sing a song. Let your naked on. Come on.
01:49:20:17 – 01:49:51:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So, there’s a scheme afoot. But God says I’m still going to take Satan’s scheme and make it work. For my advantage. Let’s just look at the mind and stuff, and we can get out of here. But look what the minister says. Our Lord God created the earth to obey the law under which it was created.
01:49:51:07 – 01:50:23:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And this is what makes the earth dependable for you and me. So, now imagine when they built the Comcast tower and they came in with these big Earth moving machines and dug into all that concrete rock and dirt and everything and dug down deep so it could hold a structure that’s going up. How did they know they could rely on the earth to hold a building of that size?
01:50:23:24 – 01:50:48:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
When they build these skyscrapers, like the Sears Tower in Chicago, and from miles you could see the light blinking from it. It blinks nonstop, 24 hours. Planes can see it. And when you’re driving on the sky where you can see it from miles away, how do they know they could build something that tall? And it would stand right.
01:50:48:18 – 01:51:05:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That the Earth could hold it? See, the minister said it’s operating out of the law. He was created in that it can be depended on, it can be counted on. You can build on it.
01:51:05:23 – 01:51:20:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He said the Earth’s revolution is so regulated that you can calculate on it just like clockwork. So what is it, he says, that regulates your body?
01:51:20:09 – 01:51:21:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Good.
01:51:21:07 – 01:51:46:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It is what you call your head. That’s what regulates the body. So he said, so now think with me for a minute. See, when a person really is teaching you and they really want you to be able to benefit from what they’re teaching, they’ll stop a minute and tell you, come on and think with them. Let’s work it out.
01:51:46:26 – 01:51:57:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Let’s break it down low. I don’t want to just send me and hit the organ and you know, and everybody say we had a good service today. What you learn.
01:51:57:11 – 01:51:58:03
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Real.
01:51:58:06 – 01:52:02:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Quick, good.
01:52:02:21 – 01:52:07:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Think with me for a minute. What kind of head is that on your body.
01:52:07:12 – 01:52:07:19
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Okay.
01:52:07:20 – 01:52:47:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It in other words, he said, what thoughts do you think are your thoughts and my thoughts in harmony with the divine law of the creator? If you are hoping that your thoughts are in harmony with the divine law of the creator, he said, then hope you don’t get it. It’s nice, but we have to know it right? The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said that Allah created within us 14 billion brain cells.
01:52:47:26 – 01:53:17:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s an awful lot of brain cells. But look what he said. And every brain cell the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, is created to think right in every brain. This is why, our, our national prison reform minister said to us when he was saying, what is the power he said, Minister Farrakhan said of a brain cell, just one cell, that God would take the time to not overlook.
01:53:17:07 – 01:53:49:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
One cell out of 14 billion, making sure every single one of them thinks, right, right, right. Go ahead. So that the blood that’s constantly circulating, going down to the soles of your feet and back to the brain, right is eight minutes and 20s right. And this is the same amount of time it takes light. That’s traveling at 186,000 miles per second from the sun.
01:53:49:20 – 01:54:12:04
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s 93 million miles away. It strikes the Earth and is back to the sun. So the same amount of time that the sun’s rays can touch the Earth, the blood is moving in the body. So whatever the dominant thoughts are in the head, every time the blood comes through, there, that’s registration.
01:54:12:06 – 01:54:15:24
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Jesus would good us.
01:54:15:27 – 01:54:26:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s why you gotta be careful. How you thinking. You can’t let other people make you think the way they want you to think. Keep reading God and know what.
01:54:26:21 – 01:54:27:12
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
His will.
01:54:27:12 – 01:54:33:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Is, because his will come from his thinking.
01:54:33:10 – 01:54:49:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It’s, He will. Don’t God just get mad sometime? Yeah, but he don’t let his anger take him over. Master.
01:54:49:27 – 01:55:05:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
What? I, I know he don’t like everybody. But the sun shine on everybody. So tell me, tell me people. Whether he like a modern everybody can still get a drink of water.
01:55:05:08 – 01:55:17:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You don’t think like that? He ain’t throwing nobody off the planet. But you can throw people away so you don’t. You.
01:55:17:11 – 01:55:57:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Man. So Isaiah was made to say, the Lord said, your thoughts are not like mine. Neither are your ways like my ways. He says he. He goes on to say, that’s an awful lot of brain cells. So if this is registration, and every time the blood crosses the head, every every 500 seconds, the blood is crossing the head, it’s it’s you register in the cell, the dominant thoughts of your mind.
01:55:58:00 – 01:56:27:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And then you know what happens when the cell travels back to the body? With that registration, the body starts taking on the form of the nature of the thought. Yeah, scar body language. They got experts that check out body language and they can tell the messenger, say, we can tell what you’re thinking, what he say. Because the thoughts that you are really harboring in your heart, they show up on your face.
01:56:27:19 – 01:56:47:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And every time the will of God comes to us, to call us to a righteous way of thinking, our face gets even harder toward that command. And really, we turn in devil to.
01:56:47:26 – 01:57:10:19
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
What? I’m not white. Devil don’t have anything to do with the color of your skin. Ministers say devil starts with a thought that’s against the will of God. And you know when when Master Feride Muhammad got here, he found some black devils. But like me, I’m not trying to hurt anybody. So he definitely didn’t want to hurt.
01:57:10:19 – 01:57:34:03
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Nobody’s feeling so he wouldn’t call us black devils. He said, you know what you other than yourself. Well what is other than yourself? A vein, but two realities. God and the devil. If you ain’t God, if I’m not God, I’m a black devil. Made other than myself. But if I turn to him, see the scripture, say if I return.
01:57:34:05 – 01:57:59:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because this to him is my return, but I can’t return to him. The scripture say, unless I ask for forgiveness. Cain didn’t think he need to be forgiven. That’s right though he killed Abel. And you know what the Cain Nick Dick mind is the mind that’s destitute of any need for atonement because they don’t feel like he did anything wrong.
01:57:59:27 – 01:58:11:02
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Also, the man of Cain is the beginning of coming to God on your own terms.
01:58:11:04 – 01:58:39:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You don’t, you know, you don’t ask. Well, what does God require of me? You know what we do? We write down what we require of God because we’ve been there. God don’t want me like this. Then I’ve just gone. You know where I’m going. But just remember the breath you used to say that. Messages. You can’t even go get it back and breathe it again.
01:58:39:13 – 01:59:02:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But. And once it’s gone, if he don’t get you another one, you gone. Who’s that comedian he’s on and he he he did a choke thing. He was gagging and choking. He said, did I just stop breathing? He looked up. He said, man, you know, he was like he was afraid. He said, if I stop breathing, I know it’s all over.
01:59:02:03 – 01:59:36:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He was making a comical point, but you know, many comedians, they really social scientific thinkers and you read into their comic acts and you could see a lot of what’s failing and the fault lines that are in civilization presently. So, so he said, every brain cell, these are honorable Elijah Muhammad said, is created by God to think right alone, never created the brain to think wrong.
01:59:36:13 – 02:00:14:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You are created to think right. And you can tell the difference when you’re thinking right and when you’re thinking wrong. Because your brains are created to feed on his creation, there is nothing in his creation that is not created right? So if you are created to think on his creation and the root of his creation is truth, the Bible teaches God created the heavens and the earth with truth, and the Holy Koran teaches Allah established the heavens and the earth with truth.
02:00:15:04 – 02:00:34:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So if your brain is created to feed on the universe, your brain is created to feed on truth. Yes. And if you feed your mind on truth, then you cannot think outside of truth.
02:00:34:27 – 02:00:41:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You.
02:00:41:24 – 02:01:18:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He talks about the will of God. Is the power of God in man’s. So now let’s look at this plan real quick and we can see why he said this. Saviors Day. He looking at what’s going on. And of course they just got three hostages, that they said Hamas murdered because the Israelis were about to rescue them.
02:01:18:04 – 02:01:32:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
The minister. He said that a guided him to see something. Now we started this off. I am the seer.
02:01:33:00 – 02:02:11:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I know they listen to the minister. And they had to be thinking, how the hell did he know? Come on. That they want to make a canal bigger than the Suez Canal with the Gaza Strip. And oil and gas is up under the earth. There. And they wanted. And that Mr. Netanyahu wants his footprint in history of taking over the whole of the Middle East and the.
02:02:11:16 – 02:02:25:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Now remember the term Middle East is a term that came in in the 1900s, a law never called nut in the Middle East.
02:02:25:12 – 02:02:54:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
In grade school, when they were teaching it. Right, you know, there’s only seven continents on the planet, the place that they call the Middle East, Asia. What continent is it on? Is not in Europe, none of Europe. And geographically. Get a get maps and get acquainted with maps. So when they’re talking about things on the news, you know where these things are placed.
02:02:54:23 – 02:03:38:09
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Just so a naval commander came up with the term Middle East. Why did Sir Winston Churchill use it as prime minister of Britain? Because that was their calling. Me. Their colony was Egypt, their colony was that. But all of that is on the African continent. Yes. So the things that we are looking at biblically, even chronically, the history there is not in Asia or Europe, as they call it, is Northern Africa.
02:03:38:11 – 02:04:19:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Of them. All right, all right. We called the entire planet Asia. They call it Africa. Right. But just for the sake of what they call it, the land called Israel after Titus of Rome sacked Jerusalem and they went to destroy these people there, they’ve renamed it Palestine. So what was it before it was Palestine? Because by 1948 they took the name Palestine away and said Israel, you.
02:04:20:00 – 02:05:03:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But before it was Palestine, it was Judea. This was the land of Judea. Sea. So these are just some backdrops of the history. We’re taught that the people that are ruling the planet now, they’re beginning, didn’t go back as far as ours are. We’re the original people of this land from one of the evidences is their whole, school of study called anthropology, where they go and dig up cities, whole cities in the San.
02:05:04:02 – 02:05:41:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And by digging up these cities, they can learn something about this, because these were neighborhoods they never lived in, because these places existed. Sea in the temples of the early days of Minister Muhammad Malcolm X, who was the lead minister, many of the ministers taught on this, how they dug down for cities to learn about them, because they just got here 6000 years ago and really, were put back in the caves and hillsides of Europe for 2000 years.
02:05:41:26 – 02:05:56:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So it’s really been a 4000 year period. That’s why you don’t see us laughing about white folks, because anybody that can rule like this, with only 4000 years to work with, they were soldiering.
02:05:56:25 – 02:06:14:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So I look at their history and I say, well, man, what the hell are we going to do? Because a lot promised somebody else rulership. He said, then we’re going to see how you act. You accuse white people of being mean. You accuse white people, discriminate and treat this one good and treat those bad and all that.
02:06:15:01 – 02:06:38:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But Allah said, well, we going to we’re going to let you come into power. We’re going to give you too much power, just enough to manifest what’s really in you. Do you discriminate against people, see what you most of us in religion discriminate. Why? Because we walk past people that we think won’t be any counter to the religion.
02:06:38:07 – 02:07:05:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So say they ain’t got nothing. You no sense in you trying to reach for them. You know. Well, you never know where God is planting the one that could be the answer to what you really looking for to help you. But look what the minister says he was given to see. He. He starts off talking about how Samuel in the book of Samuel.
02:07:05:25 – 02:07:38:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Pardon me. How, Saul was given instructions by God what to do? It was to kill everybody, kill the pits, kill everything. But they saw some of the things they would like to keep for themselves. So they felt like, you know what? We soldier, we sacrifice. We got a right to hold on to some of this. And so when he said, we sacrifice then, then it was, the prophet Samuel had told them, obedience is better than sacrifice.
02:07:38:16 – 02:08:05:28
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And the minister takes us further in that line of thought. The prophet Samuel really told him, the greatest sacrifice you can make is when you give up your thoughts to accept the will of God. In other words, when I accept the will of God, that doesn’t mean I don’t have desires, doesn’t mean I’m not going to do some things, doesn’t mean I don’t plan, doesn’t mean you don’t plan.
02:08:05:28 – 02:08:27:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And we try to go after some things. But look what the Scripture says in Proverbs, in all your ways acknowledge him. He’s still here. Don’t act like he’s gone, you know. So you acknowledge God. In the book of Proverbs, it says, take your plans and turn them over to the Lord, and then you will have much success.
02:08:27:23 – 02:08:49:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
He didn’t even say, get rid of your plans. But if you don’t want to take your plan and turn it over to God in prayer, then you weren’t interested in God having nothing to say about it. But come on now, let’s get real. Because if we if we going to succeed, ain’t but one way a power greater than these people gotta come in us back.
02:08:49:08 – 02:09:15:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And if you can’t get up with a thought that you want to operate on. But before you know it an hour of the day, you don’t default it back to his way of thinking. Then that power may be there, but you’re not. Access in yourself to that power. But see, he says, so Saul got busted and they just had to go find another king for Israel.
02:09:15:28 – 02:09:44:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
It was David because David was doing what was willing to sacrifice everything for a cause bigger than himself. The minister goes on, I am saying to all of us, you want good things in your life and you deserve it. But when it comes to sacrifice for the future of your children, for the future of your family, for the future of your people, there is nothing too good.
02:09:45:01 – 02:10:13:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So your life is the last precious thing you have. I am not angry with the Palestinians who strap bombs on themselves because they are sacrificing. The only thing left for them is their lives and they were given Israel hell. But the sacrifice of life is written in the Koran. My prayer, my sacrifice, my life and my death are all for law, the Lord of the worlds.
02:10:13:18 – 02:10:44:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Now look what he said. That’s our pledge to Allah. But we say in our prayers all the time. But you don’t know when God is going to call you on your word. No signs. Right. Call you. So God gave him to see something and he said I know it’s rough. Mr. Netanyahu. He said, I warn you, in the name of Allah, we warn you.
02:10:45:00 – 02:11:17:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
These words were given to Belshazzar, one who succeeded Nebuchadnezzar. Your kingdom has been weighed into balance and it has been numbered. And it’s getting to the end of Israel. Now, that’s not what I heard this morning on the news. What I heard this morning on the news. America’s firm, they’re going to back Israel up some even saying you’re not back in Israel even harder.
02:11:18:01 – 02:11:40:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Everything looks like Israel is going to be here. Minister Farrakhan said, is coming to an end. Now the Valley of the sea. Who am I going to believe, CNN, MSNBC, or am I going to believe the Honorable Minister, Louis far? Come see, this is where we are now.
02:11:40:26 – 02:12:21:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I, Allah am the seer. The ministers say. I know it’s rough. I know I know, beloved. I saw a beautiful Jewish boy on television, he said, and I ask the Lord to burn his image in my mind he said, because that Jewish boy was 18 years old, and he refused to go into the Israeli Defense Force, he told his mother, I will not pick up a gun to be part of the slaughter that will bring back on us.
02:12:21:23 – 02:12:48:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Slaughter. See this? This boy is not talking about Hamas being able to overpower Israel. They know they can’t do that, right. He’s talking about a cosmic reality already set up by the originator of the heavens and the earth, that as thou has done, so shall it be done unto thee.
02:12:48:14 – 02:13:16:05
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And the minister goes on and says, a young 18 year old Jewish boy, he said, and that Jewish board represents Jews who are righteous people. Here’s what Farrakhan don’t sound like, you see. But see, you don’t understand him because you don’t come. Listen to what he says. Or we heard Farrakhan hate the Jews. No, what you heard is the Jews hate Farrakhan.
02:13:16:07 – 02:13:44:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Hate is an emotion. The minister said hate is beneath us. We don’t have time to hate nobody. We got just enough spiritual gasoline in our tank to try to love one another. After they have conditioned us into self-hatred. That. So the minister goes on and we can close out today. Look at this, he says Mr. Netanyahu sees a kingdom in his mind.
02:13:44:19 – 02:14:18:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
But look what the ministers say. But it’s not for you to have the reality of what you wish for. So if you lose the election and that’s in Israel, and you might very well, because the people are kind of angry with you. Belshazzar, he says, they call him your son because you’ve got some people right there with you that think just like you, and they are members of your war cabinet, and they want Hamas liquidated, obliterated.
02:14:18:16 – 02:14:51:24
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And that’s the process that’s going on. So the kingdom is going to be divided and given to the meats and the Persians, he said. The Palestinians are going to have their own sea. It doesn’t look like that right now. They’re in refugee camps. They’re living right out with no shelter. Starvation has set in among many of them. But the ministers say, when this thing is said and done, the Palestinians are going to have their own.
02:14:51:26 – 02:15:25:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And your great suffering. I watched you, you keep your prayers going. A The Palestinians, he said, you haven’t become angry with God. You told them you know enough can happen to you. The laws that you turn around and curse God for your own misfortune. Yes. But he said, out of all their suffering, death on a daily basis, they have not cried out with anger against God that he has forsaken them.
02:15:25:23 – 02:15:39:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And the minister, because of that, you going to have your own. And because of that, the Europeans that came over and took over the land and renamed it Israel, they’re going back to Europe.
02:15:39:12 – 02:15:40:20
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Look at it. Come on.
02:15:40:22 – 02:15:41:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
02:15:42:01 – 02:15:49:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And I asked myself, well, what if they don’t go back to Europe? Then it looks like some people are going to end up in the morgue.
02:15:49:17 – 02:15:50:06
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
More.
02:15:50:08 – 02:16:12:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Because this God is not playing. Not only did he say that, but when you look at the suffering over there and you want to flick on the Eagles game and see who the new picks are, remember? But have what you see over there is coming here, right? Right. He warned us, pay attention to what’s over there, because what you see abroad is coming home right now.
02:16:13:02 – 02:16:45:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Well, why is he coming home right now? Because the originator set up an unfailing boomerang, a reciprocity, what you have sown over there. America is coming right back on your own shores. What you have done to them, it’s going to be done to you right here. You can already see the country unraveling, just like Israel has unraveled. And they’re coming apart through Partizan politics, and they’re hoping that a black woman wins for president of the United States of America.
02:16:45:29 – 02:17:04:20
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And what we have suffered here, and especially the black woman, we we deserve to see a black woman sitting in the highest seat of this land. But my fear is they will use a black face of a woman to carry this nation into a war that she’ll never get out of. That’s right.
02:17:04:23 – 02:17:05:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
You might realize.
02:17:05:28 – 02:17:27:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Well, why you got to talk like that? We just want to see her and see you can have euphoria and get drunk off of some. And it can blind you to another reality. Reality is so grim right now. Reality is so bad right now that when you really get a party, you want to run back into fantasy, right?
02:17:27:26 – 02:17:51:06
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Some people can never forget what they saw. So you got to get high to try to get out of it. You looking for something that can help you do what? Escape reality. Because it’s too grim. Brother, come on out and hear a word from the honorable doom. Nah, no no no, don’t bother me with all that. Why? Because you might get a peep at reality.
02:17:51:08 – 02:17:52:11
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Yes.
02:17:52:14 – 02:18:17:29
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You might get a peep of what? What is really felt about you, right? And you might get a peep at the time. And what you must do right now. And you don’t want to go into all that, and you think you can escape God, who knows what we hide in our breast. The scripture said, you think we think we can get away from him, but what you hide, he already sees it.
02:18:18:02 – 02:18:40:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And you know what he’s doing? He’s trying to bring it out of you. And and I close with this, the minister said as I thought about it when we were walking yesterday. And people say these children, they just become so wild. They don’t want to obey. They don’t want nobody to teach him. They don’t want nobody to do this, that or the other.
02:18:40:25 – 02:19:06:12
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And it’s horrible. And they’re killing each other and everything. And the minister said. When you take a child that you brought into life and you were supposed to be the steward and you cleaned them when they couldn’t clean themselves, fed them when they couldn’t feed themselves, house them when they couldn’t house themselves. And you help rear them up and then they turn on you.
02:19:06:12 – 02:19:30:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s an ugly thing. He said. But he said, but you know what? God, through his permissive will, he’s allowing it so that when you see how ugly that looks, he said, they’re giving you a picture of what you really got blinded to. That’s how you look with me. I’ve been with you the whole time. I’ve never failed you.
02:19:30:25 – 02:19:59:22
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I’ve given you good leaders and you join your enemy and downing them and putting them aside. But you know what? You blind to how you have offended me, disrespected me and walked away from me. Would not, rejected me because of my will. So you could exercise your own and go up under my enemy and his cosmic arrangement of life.
02:19:59:24 – 02:20:10:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And I got no way for you to really see how ugly this is. I have to get you a graphic picture of it. Yes, you do?
02:20:10:20 – 02:20:57:08
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Yeah. So, the power. Of God is behind the universe. And we’re part of that creation. His power in us is his will. This month, we got to break the will down. We got to look at it. Somebody said, Mr. Muhammad, you go into too much definition. He said, without definition. How we really don’t understand it. They. So we need to break the will down because one thing we know, you could have a will, but have we learned nothing else in our trying to be righteous is people that will try to break your will.
02:20:57:11 – 02:20:59:24
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
It’s right. That’s right.
02:20:59:27 – 02:21:20:10
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And every day this man is working to break our will. And make you go away from what you desire to see, especially of what you desire to see, is what a lot of desires to see. So may Allah bless you, I. Salaam alaikum. Yes.
02:21:20:12 – 02:21:41:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Praise be to Allah again. I cannot thank the f0 I enough for the hard work you put in yesterday. Let’s thank our, student regional captain again with a round of applause. Anthony Muhammad. No, hold on again. I just want to ask the question if if you have for your for anyone. I, for the first time never been with us before.
02:21:41:27 – 02:22:02:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Can I just see by. So thank you, sir. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Thank you beloved. Listen, if you’re out for your first time, if you second or third up, do you feel that what you heard today is the truth and good for us as a people? We tried our best to lay it out so you could think about it.
02:22:02:18 – 02:22:23:26
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And if you feel it’s true and good for us as a P. I just want to see your hands. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. The most important question I could ask if you really feel is the truth and good for us as a people. The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan is extending an invitation to Islam. The reason we didn’t know about Islam before this.
02:22:23:26 – 02:22:51:27
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
God chose us. We didn’t choose him. We didn’t know ourselves to be able to choose him, but he chose us. And we have accepted. So we realize you can’t join this even though there’s an invitation. But you can accept your own. And to accept your own and be yourself is to come with us and learn about the true nature of yourself, and then live according to that nature as being yourself.
02:22:51:29 – 02:23:15:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And God has given every man and every woman a gift. Those gifts will manifest out of you when you start living in accord with the law of your own creation. We believe that we’ve seen it work in our nation, so we are many around the country now. We’re in South America now. We’re in the Caribbean. We’re over in Europe.
02:23:15:01 – 02:23:37:07
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We’re set up with temples in there. So there’s hardly anywhere you can travel in the world and not have one of our little centers or study groups, to visit when you make your own travels. But if you are ready to stand and learn more about this great preacher of freedom, justice and equality, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, this is a good time to become part of that family.
02:23:37:07 – 02:23:57:11
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
You can do it right here in Philadelphia and I’m just one of his helpers. You can shake my hand as a symbol of reaching out to his hand is already extended to you. Is there anyone, male or female, that’s really come on, black man, there’s a black man here. All praise be to Allah. Thank you man, thank you.
02:23:57:14 – 02:23:58:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
All right, all right.
02:23:58:20 – 02:24:00:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
What’s your name, sir? Abdullah. You met me a.
02:24:00:25 – 02:24:01:25
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Greatest for remember.
02:24:01:26 – 02:24:10:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And greatest for. Yes. Yeah. They change the name now. Seen it? Right? Yes, sir. All right, come on, have a seat. We were just talking about brothers.
02:24:10:04 – 02:24:11:05
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
That had been.
02:24:11:07 – 02:24:33:21
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Incarcerated. If there’s anyone else, male or female, this was a good time. Not. Look female. We look, this ain’t a social club, right? All right. We got work to do. But, but, but but believe me, there’s joy in the world. And just because you’re female doesn’t mean you’re not a fighter. Black women have been fighters since we’ve been here.
02:24:33:23 – 02:25:01:16
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Is that right to see you? A woman, but you still a warrior, right? A sister, but a soldier, right? All right, so this is. This is a good time to learn from women that can help us. You don’t. You gotta weaponize. Even the kitchen got to be repugnant. See why we talking about making all things new? Come on, guys, first thing I had to do with the kitchen was get the pork out of there first.
02:25:01:18 – 02:25:21:23
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I saw people with ribs on yesterday, you know, leave it there. I had to get the pork out and everything. And then, then there was a lot of other things. Got to go. Shrimps, you know, that had to. And I kept going. And I believe me, I read where Mr. Muhammad said, I asked God, could we live off just bread and milk?
02:25:21:23 – 02:25:47:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I said, please don’t ask him anything else. Oh, I want a fish sandwich. What’s up? But you know, don’t you have read the book? You know, he goes there with it. But but but it’s a wonderful thing to feel healthier. It’s a wonderful thing to see yourself looking younger as as the years are coming on you and to learn from Mr. Muhammad.
02:25:47:25 – 02:26:21:18
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
We could live a long time. I saw a black woman who she just made her 115th birthday. I think she lived here. She was on the news. Wow. And you know, Ole, Ole is just a mindset. And in the nation, man, if you live with this, you can’t just eat to live. You gotta think to live and you can’t think negative and live because you can’t separate your mind from your body.
02:26:21:21 – 02:26:47:14
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
Your body’s going to ultimately have to be affected by what’s going on in your mind. So managing the events of your mind is too important. That’s why I took time to read to you what the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said about how you think, because that’s what the new world will be comprised of people who think. Right. He said, who act right and then who eat right.
02:26:47:17 – 02:27:08:13
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
That’s what the new world will be like. And the new world, we’re not going to no other planet. Stop looking in the sky and everything, right is going to be right here on Earth. No, we’re not going to jump on nobody. We don’t have to do all that now. Our God has intervened. He’s already where we are right now has all been done by God.
02:27:08:15 – 02:27:30:25
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
And believe me, we started out a small force, just a handful of people in 1977 and carrying no weapons, threatening no one. We just been trying to do the will of God from a man who’s got complete faith in him. And just by following him, look where we are. Imagine when our faith grows to be like that, we just take off.
02:27:30:28 – 02:27:51:17
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
So we thank our brother for accepting. And if there any others that might want to reconsider before you leave the Secretariat Department is is available. The sisters have, orientation set up. They got a good person to talk with you about it. And, you know, you ever been to a club and say, well, I don’t like this place.
02:27:51:17 – 02:28:13:00
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
I won’t be back here. Yeah. Come on. You’ve been to other clubs? Well, maybe you went to something, but it it’s just you say, this ain’t my cup of tea. Well, come out on a Saturday. Try it out. So let me let me see what they talking about and everything. Hey, you just leave and don’t. That’s what some other people did.
02:28:13:00 – 02:28:33:01
Student Minister Rodney Muhammad
They just left and didn’t come back no more. But some of us never left, you know. And I thank God for the sisters that are here with us, the mgt. Let’s give them a round of applause. Praise be to Allah. So, so very quickly, let’s have a public offering. We’re going to ask everybody, let’s just give some 20s a day.

Believe me, I got about 600 responses so far on social media, so I know you probably have more if you put some of the pictures out, but the people are responding in different parts of the city and, believe me that the shock value of that, you just don’t know the ripples that will come from that.
02:31:41:20 – 02:32:05:11

I got to give it to our brother, our student, regional Captain Anthony Muhammad.
02:33:04:22 – 02:33:11:28
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Brother is a soldier to the heart. I mean, he did it yesterday. I mean, he has a shortcoming. I’m not going to go into all that. You want to know.
02:33:11:28 – 02:33:23:26
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
What it is? You can talk to him, but he has a shortcoming. And he walked the entire time. When I know most people who had had that kind of excuse, they fell back. But now, as a true leader in our region, he walked in with us.
02:33:23:26 – 02:33:32:29
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad
Every step of the way and he held it all praise especially. So kudos and a shout out clap you brother cap. Yes, sir. Thank you brother.
