00:00:00:00 – 00:00:00:24
Speaker 3
years and four months.

00:00:00:24 – 00:00:29:12
Speaker 3
And in that time he chose a successor, one that he could deposit his very mind into, and that one would not break falter, nor would he leave his post, regardless of whom or what. And the man that he chose to fill those shoes was a Georgia born black man. He came up on the heels of slavery. Thus that gave him the ability and the heart to know what our people were going through and made him the perfect leader and guide and example for us to study.

00:00:29:15 – 00:00:54:26
Speaker 3
The man that I speak of, he was born Elijah Pool, but because of the wonderful and magnificent work that he’s doing among the black men and women in the hills of North America and all over the planet, he became known as the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, and we thank Allah for that great and wonderful, wonderful human being. We thank our Lord for his wise choice and given to us that gift and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

00:00:54:29 – 00:01:23:00
Speaker 3
However, I did not meet those two, but the man who was causing me to look closer at those two with a love that I didn’t understand that you could have for, men and not something be wrong with you. You know what I mean when I say love, I’m talking about from the spiritual level that you can understand that the work that they’ve done has worked on us, and we are the people who are growing from almost nothing into what he wants us to be.

00:01:23:03 – 00:01:45:07
Speaker 3
And that’s God’s. We’re coming. There it is. A is it a transcendence? It takes time. And we thank the man who was among us, who was pointing these things out, that the first to lay the base for. But he’s passing it apart and giving it to us so that we can understand it, or he makes it so plain that even a fool would find it hard to earn what he’s saying.

00:01:45:09 – 00:02:06:12
Speaker 3
And the man that I talk about, he’s our leader, our illustrious leader, teacher, guy, friend and confident. The gift from Almighty God, Allah, Master Fard Muhammad and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to you and me, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. It is in their names, their family. I wish you all once again with the greeting words of peace I.

00:02:06:12 – 00:02:38:09
Speaker 3
Salaam alaikum. how it is mourning family. All praises due to Allah, we are fine and we thank Allah for the many, many blessings that he has bestowed and is bestowing upon us. And we thank him for the trials that he is putting us through. Why do we say it that way? Because it is the trial that is going to bring out of us that thing that God deposited in us, that Allah put there, which is himself, that only under trial will it manifest itself to the world and even to ourselves.

00:02:38:12 – 00:02:59:03
Speaker 3
Y’all. All right, so we thank him for, again the blessings and the trials. And when I first came in and is of Islam, we say I say here the brother say I’ve been tried and I’ll be tried again. But we look we tried test it that a trial is a form of difficulty. But then we tried this. Surely after difficulty the Koran says come, eat.

00:02:59:06 – 00:03:14:19
Speaker 3
And then after he comes difficulty. So it’s a never ending cycle. But in that process, it’s like being in and in the dojo, you know, you go through a technique, you don’t get it at first. Maybe you don’t remember all of it, but the more you practice it, the more it.

00:03:14:19 – 00:03:15:17
Speaker 2
Comes to fruition.

00:03:15:24 – 00:03:34:00
Speaker 3
And the easier it is to become. So it is with our Islamic life, the more we practice it, the more we improve, the more you know. An old days, you hear the old folks say, practice makes perfect. No, the Honorable Louis Farrakhan says no. Practice makes improvement. Because the way we did it yesterday, the way we.

00:03:34:00 – 00:03:34:16
Speaker 4
Did it a few.

00:03:34:16 – 00:03:54:06
Speaker 3
Seconds ago, and the next instance, you can find a better way to do it. Oh, so practice makes improvement. So let’s continue to improve on ourselves. But that in itself isn’t an easy task. And we’ll come back to that in a moment. First, let me, clear some things. Thank you all for being here on time. Thank you for submitting to the check procedure.

00:03:54:08 – 00:04:18:26
Speaker 3
Floyd is very necessary today because we live in a very dangerous time has begun, and the Bible says that we are in a time where we can let. Jesus said, we can let no man deceive us. So everybody that comes through the door has to go through the check procedure because we can be changed in a twinkling.

00:04:18:28 – 00:04:36:24
Speaker 3
Of an eye. So that’s the check procedure is necessary because we want to make sure that the way we saw you a few minutes ago, your heart or your mind hasn’t changed. So not only do we check the physical person, we check your spirit. And if your spirit is right, then you know yours well because that’s the only admittance it is to get into the house today.

00:04:36:26 – 00:04:56:14
Speaker 3
No ticket was necessary. Yes, your beautiful self and a God like spirit and that’s what God is saying. So thank you all for being here on time and having the right spirit. Let’s move on very quickly. We have put something here today. We always want to talk about our two, our number one two. That is the final call.

00:04:56:14 – 00:05:18:07
Speaker 3
Newspaper. In the final call you have local, national international news. We have psychological news. We have spiritual news. But it’s all contained and this paper is on. You could almost call it an encyclopedia. I know I’m saying that, but as I hold it up, you can’t take your eyes off that beautiful picture on the front, right? Oh, please.

00:05:18:07 – 00:05:48:07
Speaker 3
Keep you alive. Isn’t that a wonderful, wonderful shot of our illustrious leader, the honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan? And the way he looks in this garment is the way his heart is towards you. And I is going pure gold and love for you and I. But, brothers and sisters, let’s get this final call. Let’s, you know, read it. And if you like to engage others in conversation or you want to answer questions, the things that sometimes people may want to bring to you, read the final call.

00:05:48:07 – 00:06:07:28
Speaker 3
And I guarantee you there’s no question that can be asked of you. I don’t care how big of a literary giant it is once you’ve studied this paper, there’s nobody that you can’t talk to and handle them and win them over by Allah’s grace and permission. But all we have to do, we’re students. We have to study, homework assignment.

00:06:08:01 – 00:06:30:01
Speaker 3
This is it right here. Let’s read it. Local. National. It’s a national news. And to be honest with you, if past, present and future news cannot work, can I prove it? Of course. I challenge you to go find I’m Muhammad speaks from the 1960s, the 1950s. Just pick it up and open it to any page and start reading it.

00:06:30:03 – 00:06:53:09
Speaker 3
It is as if, though that news was just written in the day in this dispensation of time. That’s how timely the news in the information is. So we don’t call these old final call. We call them previous edition. They don’t get old. That’s what they say about gold. Gold don’t get old. And neither does the news in the final Call newsletter, because it’s coming from a man with a golden heart.

00:06:53:16 – 00:07:20:00
Speaker 3
Y’all all right, fam, let’s move on. How many brothers and sisters always asked this question? How many were out on Friday at study group? praise be to Allah. Well, let me implore up. Come out because there’s a healing in it for us. You know, in the scriptures it talks about there’s a balm in Gilead, there’s a balm in self-improvement, which is the basis for community development.

00:07:20:02 – 00:07:41:14
Speaker 3
Whatever your afflictions are, whatever things you may be going through, come on out to this study group. There’s an answer to what you’re going through, just being in that setting. And the beauty of it is, it’s not like right now where you have a speaker speaking and you’re sitting there and you’re, you know, extracting what’s coming from you, or you’re breaking it down or trying to chew it over and mull it over digested or what have you.

00:07:41:16 – 00:08:03:27
Speaker 3
This course right here is interactive with me. You become a part of it. There’s a question and answer series. There’s a reading session where you go through and then questions are asked. You get a chance based on what you derived from the reading. You get a chance to give your own response. Y’all all right? It’s pretty visual. So let’s be found coming out to the Friday study group.

00:08:03:29 – 00:08:23:25
Speaker 3
But this week in particular, I found it for me. It hit home. I mean, it was a powerful hit. But let me start with this. First, let’s go to Sura. Well, we’re dealing with building the will. Was the study God seven. And, we were breaking down the analysis or we were reading it and trying to parse it apart.

00:08:24:01 – 00:08:34:22
Speaker 3
But let me go to the Koran first. I’ll back around the house for two. yeah. 153 it says all you who believe seek assistance.

00:08:34:22 – 00:08:36:03
Speaker 2
Through patience.

00:08:36:06 – 00:09:03:03
Speaker 3
And prayer. Surely Allah is with the patient now. I got I had to keep put my hand up. Don’t raise your hand. I’m impatient. You know, sometimes I have to check myself. You know I want things done, you know? And you in your mind, you want it done a certain way. But sometimes it just doesn’t click. It don’t pop, you know, in a popping like that and you know, you know, so we wrangle with it like, man, what’s up?

00:09:03:03 – 00:09:31:26
Speaker 3
I’m doing I’m doing what I’m supposed to do. I’m trying to eat one meal a day. I’m studying the scriptures. I’m trying to be decent to other people. Why aren’t we patient listening to do what is being patient? It’s a patient is being able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious. Y’all all right if if this you don’t even worry about it, just hold it to yourself.

00:09:31:28 – 00:09:54:05
Speaker 3
You know, take a deep breath. Keep blowing. It’s okay. Because, I mean, I’m in this. I’m in this. I’m all the way in it. But with that’s what patience is. But also a patient. The second definition is a person receiving or registered to receive medical treatment. Right now all of us are damaged, right? We need the treatment. Self-improvement.

00:09:54:05 – 00:10:15:15
Speaker 3
The basis for community development is a start. That is part of the treatment for us to help heal our broken hearts, our souls. Because, you know, the Bible says we were born in sin and shaped in iniquity. Will sin. We know what that is. That’s that’s that, that’s breaking up the the the laws that Almighty God Allah has set up for us.

00:10:15:23 – 00:10:42:10
Speaker 3
And iniquity is wrongdoing. So the Honorable Louis Farrakhan broke it down like this. He said, you were born in sin. That means that the day that we came in and started breathing on our own, free of our mother, the sin was already here. We didn’t make it, but it was. It was waiting on us and the wrongdoing. Of course, there were people doing wrong before we got here, so we stepped into something and if there’s nothing to check us, we will become was already present.

00:10:42:12 – 00:11:03:01
Speaker 3
But all praise is due to allow for the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, as represented to us by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. For in that even though we were born in sin and shaped in iniquity, we don’t have to be there. Y’all all right? Praise be to Allah. Let me read this other story. Now let’s keep our minds on that patience and the prayer, sir.

00:11:03:01 – 00:11:25:15
Speaker 3
103 I’ll usher. The time is said by the time. Oh, in the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful, by the time. Surely man is in laws, except those who believe and do good, and exhort one another to truth, and exhort one another to hear that word is again patience. Patience. The Koran is constantly telling us to be patient.

00:11:25:18 – 00:11:45:07
Speaker 3
Sometime our children don’t move the way we want them to move right? Maybe we want them to be here, but they’re here and you know everybody don’t move at the same rate of speed and honor the same time. We have to give them time to catch up to the things that they go through. And we gotta stop being hard on our children a lot of time, you know, we can’t be holier than thou.

00:11:45:07 – 00:11:59:13
Speaker 3
Like, we didn’t show up when we was young. Could anybody tell us anything when we were younger? Don’t raise your hand is all right. Already know we did the way we thought we wanted to do it. Well, let’s give our children a break. Just because we came in and, you know, the honorable Elijah Muhammad said it this way.

00:11:59:15 – 00:12:15:27
Speaker 3
Remember that time when we who know now knew not? There was a time when we were right where I shoulda known. So take it easy on them. Just help to guide them. You know? We know we did a lot of bad stuff when we was coming through, otherwise we wouldn’t be here now. We could be out there free.

00:12:16:00 – 00:12:37:16
Speaker 3
With that, I saw a man who used to live on a block over me. He was a pastor. He used to have on the back of his, license plate. And bowl letters. Sin free. I said that man. No, he line. He no, he line how you stand free and you born into sin. Just the mere fact that you got that on your license plate you have seen because you told a lie.

00:12:37:18 – 00:13:04:01
Speaker 3
Anyway, we’ll move on. That’s a whole nother subject right there. But, dear family, let me read this real quick. In the study. God, listen to this. And this I like, gives us a picture of what taking place in ourselves. Just as he is wrath with taking the devil’s party for friend, he is displeased with our following our low desires, which makes us forget the remembrance of our love.

00:13:04:03 – 00:13:14:12
Speaker 3
The correlation here is that we must guard against the internal enemy that moves within the circle of believers, and we must guard against the internal enemy that moves within.

00:13:14:12 – 00:13:15:14
Speaker 4
The individual.

00:13:15:14 – 00:13:38:17
Speaker 3
Self. Y’all all right, y’all, you hear that right? It’s in here not it’s nothing outside of our self. It’s going on right in here. We’ve got a check in. So let’s walk along. Check this out. Impatient. Here’s that word definition. Impatient is defined as an eager desire for relief or change and tolerance of anything that thwarts or hinders.

00:13:38:20 – 00:14:12:23
Speaker 3
Thus, we see that it is a force which is natural and which is characterized as a desire. Did you hear that? That’s a it’s a force within us. That means that I’ll. I’ll put it there. The impatient. Ooh, let’s move on. Let’s move on. And then it says desire feeds the will. Therefore, the desire to be relieved from the irritation of waiting over a protracted period of time becomes into conflict with the desire for any goal which requires patience to obtain.

00:14:12:25 – 00:14:40:01
Speaker 3
One force must win over the other. There is a law in physics which says that for every action there was an equal and opposite reaction in creation. In creating us impatient, our Lord God has ensured that the struggle he has ordained for us in order to achieve anything of consequence or acquire anything of value, takes place in the Study Guide three.

00:14:40:04 – 00:15:02:29
Speaker 3
We say that the ever present difficulty factor increases as we grow closer to our desire. How many of us remember that movie with, Indiana Jones? No, that is old movie. Well, you know, well, even in The Matrix, all these movies that they make it every time the person gets closer to the thing that they’re going after, don’t the challenges get harder, they get more difficult.

00:15:03:01 – 00:15:22:02
Speaker 3
That’s what we’ve been told right here. Whenever we’re coming up on the thing that we want, the trials are going to get even harder. Anybody who ever started to start a business or something like that, just as you were about to get that long, don’t know. The challenges get real rough. They get real hard. Well, you can think we can think of a plethora of things that we can do to prove this example.

00:15:22:02 – 00:15:52:02
Speaker 3
But the deal is we have to be patient in order to achieve it. Let’s move on. In overcoming the natural forces of resistance within us, we develop the discipline necessary to obtain what we want to do. The natural friction between our desired goals and the conflicting desire for relief from waiting, which is impatient. All our God has provided each of us with a means of building the will and study guide.

00:15:52:02 – 00:16:14:03
Speaker 3
Five we saw that the willpower is developed by overcoming resistance, just as the muscles of the physical bodies are developed by working against resistance. You know, we pick up the weights and there’s a little more than you thought here. You thought you could do it, but as soon as you picked it up, you, oh, women, maybe you shook a little bit and you tried to get it up, but you.

00:16:14:06 – 00:16:30:15
Speaker 3
So what you have to do, you have to reduce the weight until you can build up to that point where that’s where we are right now. But the more we resist it, the stronger we become. That’s on the physical level. But on a spiritual and psychological level, it’s the same way. We can’t just throw the thing that’s this in our in our way.

00:16:30:15 – 00:17:02:24
Speaker 3
We can’t just throw it away or run from it. We have to face it. And the more we face it, the stronger we become. That means that we are able to take on more as time goes on and listen. In our study of the prophets, we saw that patience was the pervasive virtue. They were mocked and ridiculed by the disbelievers for long periods of time, but were instructed by our Lord God to bear patiently what they say in overcoming the natural force of impatience and developing the attribute of patience.

00:17:02:24 – 00:17:38:22
Speaker 3
They were rewarded with vision or the ability to see beyond the present. They can see through their patience that the ends for which they were striving without ultimately come about. Isn’t that a beautiful thing? So the more we face a difficulty overcoming, we are able to look further down the road. Wow! Did you know that when you say the name, people say Farrakhan, it’s not Farrakhan is Farrakhan means that he can help us see farther down the road than we could with our own limited vision spiritually, psychologically, and or otherwise.

00:17:38:24 – 00:18:03:04
Speaker 3
Y’all all right? Isn’t that what a good father does? He helps us to see farther down the road based on his own life experiences. So we got to hear what the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan is teaching us because he is the father over the House. Right? Then the Honorable Elijah Muhammad says that when you see him, look at him where he tell you to go, where he tells you to stay from all praises due to Allah.

00:18:03:08 – 00:18:23:23
Speaker 3
So when we obey what he tells us to do, don’t we have the ultimate success? Oh come on now we all we you right there, right there. Family. Let’s move on. It says impatience or the desire for relief or change may be removed from us, not by yielding to the natural forth, but by seeking refuge in Allah.

00:18:23:23 – 00:18:24:21
Speaker 2
God.

00:18:24:23 – 00:18:53:22
Speaker 3
It doesn’t the Koran tell us that that obedience is better than sacrifice, prayer is better than sleep, but the remembrance of Allah is the greatest force. What? I’m going to say it again, the remembrance of Allah is the greatest force. All praises due to a lot and it goes on to say do whenever we are confronted, you know, by our enemy in the streets and it looks like it’s overwhelming against us all, we chose to say Allahu Akbar.

00:18:53:24 – 00:19:13:24
Speaker 3
That is the remembrance of Allah. So again, we I was talking to Brother Zebulun. I said, what is the zero of the one eight to the left of it? So we call on Allah. Help comes. It’s never anything outside of ourself. But he called it is to rise up within ourselves. in the family of Amara as it saw three.

00:19:13:27 – 00:19:35:18
Speaker 3
You said if they come against you in a headlong manner, I will send 3000 angels, you know. So you’re eight. I’m paraphrasing a little bit, but then it says that. But if you are steadfast, meaning that you making your prayers, you doing it, then you striving to be upright, you said if they come at you in a headlong manner, I will send to your a 5000 havoc making angels hit the brakes.

00:19:35:21 – 00:19:56:24
Speaker 3
What are the havoc making angel havoc make angels don’t take papers. He might not even pay charity. But when it come with all our sins to call out, they come to our aid. He won’t ask no questions. He right there. When? When is it where you want me? No questions asked. The havoc make an angel comes to our aid.

00:19:57:01 – 00:20:19:17
Speaker 3
And that havoc making angel the minister sends is nothing else out of ourselves. They right here in us, and all he does is trigger it. And here we here come and we we like, in, in the Bible where it says who, whether with the Samson, you slay 10,000 with the jawbone of an ass. Are you serious?

00:20:19:19 – 00:20:38:17
Speaker 3
You mean to tell me I don’t have to read that in the book? That that’s laying up in me. I remember the minister said, imagine in here’s a woman, she’s 120 pounds, and a man is trying to do something to her baby. He 245 pound muscle. but she see that man grab her baby and do something to her baby.

00:20:38:17 – 00:21:01:18
Speaker 3
She jump up, wrestle him down. And when it’s all over, when she grab the baby and say, did I do that? Yes, you did it. Because it’s right in us. Once we call on the divine forces of Almighty God, our Lord, he rises us to the occasion to handle anything, and our men all praise belongs to Allah. So, dear family, we don’t have to walk around in fear.

00:21:01:20 – 00:21:21:19
Speaker 3
You know the definition of Muslim is one who submit his or her will to do the will of Allah, but it also Muslim means one who is made to feel secure. So when you know that you backed by the mighty God, what we got to be afraid of, we can walk through the valley of the shadow of death with our head up high and chest out.

00:21:21:22 – 00:21:40:26
Speaker 3
Look not looking for danger, but walking through the danger and the danger systems, the God force in us. And it gets out of the way. That’s right. You can see some of the bad. See who’s out there. I don’t care who they are. When you walk like you own this earth, and you walk in step like you crack in concrete, they don’t want you watch the animal shows.

00:21:40:29 – 00:22:01:07
Speaker 3
No. The documentary the lions don’t go after the strong zebras on the strong zero. They look for the young or the weak, the old, the sick. They don’t want no difficult time because they might go the other way was the same way with us. Beloved, when we walk and we know that all our got our back everything out there, I wouldn’t care if it was the police.

00:22:01:07 – 00:22:17:12
Speaker 3
They see it in us. It’s called. We redirect the fear. You know how it is when you got an opponent. And even when we fight, we don’t back up. We move toward the fight. And I don’t get discouraged. Is that the one who’s tried to get on us? That breaks their heart. They believe. Whoa! Oh, he she ain’t back it up.

00:22:17:13 – 00:22:34:06
Speaker 3
I’m gonna use the system. She didn’t back up. She brought it to me and gave him some. And against us. And y’all walk off and say, yeah, look what I look. What Allah blessed me to do. Don’t give it to yourself. Because we didn’t get the victory on our own. Allah gave it to us. But brothers, it’s the same with us.

00:22:34:07 – 00:22:54:01
Speaker 3
I don’t think that because you getting up in age that you can’t deal. Now know that there are some preparatory things that we have to do this it, maintain it. But, by laws back into you. You don’t have to be no martial artist. You don’t have to be a boxer. But if you fighting for truth, Allah will come to your aid and guide you through anything that comes up in front of us.

00:22:54:08 – 00:23:12:25
Speaker 3
And we will come out with the victory. Oh, praise you to Allah and I ain’t doing this. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said these words. He said, I can’t promise you you won’t get a hickey on your head. I can’t promise you that you won’t go to jail. And I can’t promise you that. Some of you might, you know, might not, might lose your life.

00:23:12:27 – 00:23:16:00
Speaker 3
But what I can promise you, with all our God, promise me.

00:23:16:02 – 00:23:18:12
Speaker 2
And that is the victory.

00:23:18:14 – 00:23:35:22
Speaker 3
Oh, praise is due to all of from family at this time. Let’s bring you this watch. And my brother, who is showing a good victory, looks like he is helping to guide us to the victory. He is the shepherd among us. He is a helper in the cause of Islam. We may could even call him a companion of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.

00:23:35:26 – 00:23:46:14
Speaker 3
He is our Delaware Valley student, regional Minister Rodney Muhammad. Bring him on with the world round of applause. I like just.

00:23:46:17 – 00:23:48:02
Speaker 3
Salaam alaikum.

00:23:48:05 – 00:24:19:18
Speaker 4
Let’s get Brother Joseph another hand. All right. We thank him. In the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful, the one God to whom praises do the Lord of the worlds. We thank Almighty God, who is the revealer of all truth, and the sender of all prophets of whom we have made no distinction. We thank him for Moses and the Torah, for Jesus and the gospel, and we thank him for Muhammad and the revelation of the Holy Koran.

00:24:21:14 – 00:25:01:03
Speaker 4
We are students of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad s life giving teaching. And that being said, we are most thankful to Allah for the one who was prophesied and predicted to come. And we believe he has come intervening in our affairs in the person of master fraud Muhammad, to whom praise is due forever. Part of that intervention, interruption. And interceding on our behalf, he found a helper that was among us.

00:25:01:06 – 00:25:37:27
Speaker 4
I guess that’s a great sign that we shouldn’t, as they say in society, low ball ourselves and make ourselves cheaper than we really are because he found one among us. He didn’t bring somebody with him. He came by himself. And this man that he found amongst us had only been to the fourth grade of learning and from what I understand, didn’t complete the fourth grade of learning.

00:25:38:00 – 00:26:13:09
Speaker 4
But yet this man is teaching the most well learned in the civilizations of the present world. And I speak of his servant, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, who is now his exalted servant. We thank the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad because, he proved the efficacy of his wisdom. When a person proves the efficacy of what they brought, you just have to look back on it.

00:26:13:09 – 00:26:46:01
Speaker 4
And when you look back on it, no one friend of foe was saying Elijah was wrong. That something. And so when a man teaches you directly from God, there’s no margin for error. In other words, people who think, well, Elijah was right about this, but he didn’t get this right. No. You’re wrong. Oh, no, there was no margin for error.

00:26:46:02 – 00:27:19:26
Speaker 4
You may not understand, but if you keep living and keep searching and seeking, you will come to an understanding that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad was right in what he spoke. He did not speak until he knew he was right in what he spoke, because we would have to come back. So he said, if you can find one word that I have taught you that is wrong, I’ll give you $10,000 out of my brother’s vest pocket.

00:27:19:28 – 00:27:22:18
Speaker 4
nobody’s collected on this man.

00:27:22:21 – 00:27:23:25
Speaker 2
That’s right.

00:27:23:27 – 00:27:34:23
Speaker 4
It is a challenge. And if we put it out there, we’re obligated to give someone $10,000. If they could find it a word that was wrong, you know?

00:27:34:23 – 00:27:37:20
Speaker 2
And,

00:27:37:22 – 00:27:45:08
Speaker 4
He also said if you have the message and the answer for my people.

00:27:45:11 – 00:27:48:01
Speaker 2
That,

00:27:48:04 – 00:28:25:00
Speaker 4
We’ll break camp, come on, and we’ll follow you right? No one has brought something for people have criticized him, but no one said, you all should break down and follow me right? In fact, the people that are critics haven’t offered no meaningful program for our people to first be lifted up and then be advanced as a people. So the efficacy of his wisdom is still on the table.

00:28:25:02 – 00:28:36:16
Speaker 4
It’s proven beyond all doubt. And though he is not physically here amongst us, his student is with us.

00:28:36:18 – 00:28:37:28
Speaker 2
Right?

00:28:38:00 – 00:29:07:08
Speaker 4
That’s probably the greatest manifestation and representation of the efficacy of his wisdom is his student is here a man is here, and the type of man that he has made up his students. The world is hard pressed to produce somebody that’s even his equal.

00:29:07:10 – 00:29:29:13
Speaker 4
His student, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, because he is the manifestation of the efficacy of this man’s great, unquote, wisdom, though he is this student, he’s our leader, teacher and guy. And guess what? If we remain good students?

00:29:29:19 – 00:29:30:21
Speaker 2
Oh, come on.

00:29:30:23 – 00:29:36:03
Speaker 4
Somebody might be hard pressed to produce a civilization like this one.

00:29:36:03 – 00:29:36:16
Speaker 2
Yes, sir.

00:29:36:22 – 00:30:07:05
Speaker 4
If we hold fast, I think I think the honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. For this rare, golden and historic opportunity to help in such a special way, in the work of the resurrection of the dead. I greet you. Assalamualaikum.

00:30:11:04 – 00:31:18:03
Speaker 4
And I’m thankful for the last two weeks that we had with powerful helpers and servants to the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, who the minister himself some years back. Gave very high esteem words for a group of men and women that had come together to defend him. at the highest level. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad in 1964, when hypocrisy broke out in the nation, he summoned all his ministers and captains, and he brought them together to see what was the damage.

00:31:18:05 – 00:31:34:07
Speaker 4
to look them over, to see what was the damage and how many of them had fallen into hypocrisy. But at that meeting he said, you must defend me from a scriptural standpoint.

00:31:34:09 – 00:31:35:09
Speaker 2
Right?

00:31:35:11 – 00:31:49:28
Speaker 4
That means a scriptural standpoint. You got to be standing on the Word of God to defend him. And if Farrakhan is his star pupil.

00:31:50:00 – 00:31:52:26
Speaker 2
Yes, I’m on.

00:31:52:28 – 00:32:08:27
Speaker 4
Then you cannot defend Farrakhan. Except you stand on the Word of God. Why? Because if he is who he says he is, then he’s fulfilling the prophet’s.

00:32:08:29 – 00:32:10:27
Speaker 2
Test, right?

00:32:11:00 – 00:32:17:00
Speaker 4
So we didn’t walk with the prophets. We only see their words.

00:32:17:02 – 00:32:18:16
Speaker 2
Right, sir?

00:32:18:19 – 00:32:23:22
Speaker 4
But we are walking with one who is fulfilling them.

00:32:23:24 – 00:32:25:20
Speaker 2
Think about their.

00:32:25:22 – 00:33:11:14
Speaker 4
So, These men that came, they remind me of the scripture where the Koran says Solomon taught not only the men, but the birds and the jinn. the men is obvious. Because he’s teaching the men that want to stand with him, who want to stand with the Word of God. But birds can walk on the earth like men, but birds have wings.

00:33:11:17 – 00:33:12:09
Speaker 2
Come on.

00:33:12:11 – 00:33:20:18
Speaker 4
And they can take up and defy gravity and soar through the air.

00:33:20:21 – 00:33:21:07
Speaker 2
Among.

00:33:21:07 – 00:33:47:02
Speaker 4
Men. Birds are scholars, right, who walk with men, but because of their research and understanding of God’s Word, like wings, the minister said, when you open the book of Scripture, it looks like wings. They’re their understanding, and that takes them above the average man in understanding. You got.

00:33:47:02 – 00:33:48:12
Speaker 2
It.

00:33:48:14 – 00:34:01:26
Speaker 4
So Solomon was teaching the birds, teaching the men, and also teaching the jinn who the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said was the Caucasian.

00:34:01:29 – 00:34:02:15
Speaker 2
Right.

00:34:02:17 – 00:34:42:08
Speaker 4
So when when the scholarship started, not only was Farrakhan like Solomon teaching the men and not only had a research team gathered on a scholarly level to teach the birds, but he was also teaching the jinn, which was the Church of Scientology. So as they were criticizing him, they didn’t see Farrakhan walking through Scripture. And we were sitting right there in it.

00:34:44:02 – 00:35:13:20
Speaker 4
Yes. Beautiful. So brother Ilia Rashad, who has spent a great deal of time dealing with the mother plane, from, and this reality that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad taught that many when they were tearing down the nation. This was one of the first things they went after to destroy that belief in the mind of the believers, that such a plane.

00:35:13:20 – 00:35:15:22
Speaker 2
Exists.

00:35:15:24 – 00:35:51:11
Speaker 4
And they would save them. Will it be replaced with a belief? Yes. That Muhammad, Prophet Muhammad was said to, had taken a night journey. And he was lifted from Mecca and carried all the way to Jerusalem. And there was a temple that Solomon had built in Jerusalem, right? That the Romans destroyed. So it was a mount, a temple Mount.

00:35:51:11 – 00:36:20:23
Speaker 4
But the temple was no longer there. But Prophet Muhammad was said to have been taken there. it’s called a burak or a barrack or however that word is pronounced, but it’s supposed to be a horse with wings on it that he wrote to serve. So you go from somebody building a mechanical object that you can get.

00:36:20:23 – 00:36:22:20
Speaker 2
In.

00:36:22:23 – 00:36:25:18
Speaker 4
And it can take off.

00:36:25:20 – 00:36:26:23
Speaker 2
That’s right.

00:36:26:25 – 00:37:02:23
Speaker 4
Two nothing like that could ever exist. But we can get on a horse that can fly. Right now, we really do have to have a conversation, Just for you. So I looked up again, just to be sure. So it’s widely believed in the Muslim world. On who who discards the Honorable Elijah Muhammad claim about a plane flying in the sky that they believe a man got on a horse and flew in the air.

00:37:02:25 – 00:37:17:27
Speaker 4
That’s a long journey from Mecca here to get all the way to Jerusalem, where? Inside of the Grand Mosque. There. inside the plaza, the dome of the Rock sits.

00:37:17:29 – 00:37:19:03
Speaker 2
Yes, sir.

00:37:19:05 – 00:37:52:02
Speaker 4
So, brother Ilya Rashad has done a great deal of research to not only show that what the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said was revealed to him is in the scripture, but he’s also showing that the government bears witness. So this film is to help us, right? Because the Scripture says, who would believe our.

00:37:52:02 – 00:37:55:09
Speaker 2
Report morning.

00:37:55:11 – 00:38:17:29
Speaker 4
After people have been trained one way? That’s like we say, well, we’re teaching on the mental resurrection of the dead. And people say, oh, you can’t resurrect these Negroes, but you’re in a faith that you believe that people that we’ve literally buried in the ground are going to get up again. Come on now, we.

00:38:18:05 – 00:38:18:20
Speaker 2
Just.

00:38:18:20 – 00:38:44:08
Speaker 4
Show you how your mind is trained. and so, you know, and so we are run from the truth and, and maybe somebody and say, well, it’s not true, but at least you ought to run with a question mark in your head. It’s not about what we said about what you already believe.

00:38:44:08 – 00:38:50:26
Speaker 2
Him who he. Yeah, you. You know.

00:38:50:28 – 00:39:25:09
Speaker 4
You haven’t read Revelation of God. One of the qualities of revelation from God. It has to appeal to the reasoning powers of man. It can’t be unreasonable. How unreasonable would be? Jesus went up in the sky and been sitting up there for 2000 years, right? And when he comes back, he’s going to prove he was the man from 2000 years ago because he has a wound that never healed.

00:39:25:11 – 00:39:28:24
Speaker 4
And it didn’t decay either.

00:39:28:26 – 00:39:31:08
Speaker 2
Yeah, yeah. Come on.

00:39:31:10 – 00:39:39:23
Speaker 4
I’m just saying this is what. And no, it’s it’s a way of worship. It’s not mocking anybody because I was in that. But we never thought about it.

00:39:39:28 – 00:39:40:29
Speaker 2
Come on, know.

00:39:41:01 – 00:39:51:23
Speaker 4
It doesn’t mean. And we going to talk about it today. It doesn’t mean that what’s in the Bible doesn’t have truth there. We just don’t see it properly.

00:39:51:25 – 00:39:52:15
Speaker 2
Right?

00:39:52:17 – 00:39:57:22
Speaker 4
Yes. So the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said these words, The Bible is right.

00:39:57:25 – 00:39:59:15
Speaker 2
But we.

00:39:59:17 – 00:40:03:23
Speaker 4
See it wrongly because we’ve been trained a certain way.

00:40:03:26 – 00:40:06:08
Speaker 2
For I heard.

00:40:06:11 – 00:40:18:06
Speaker 4
A supreme captain say something in Detroit. He said, if you believe that God is a spook, when did he teach you that he was right.

00:40:18:09 – 00:40:19:03
Speaker 2
Right.

00:40:19:06 – 00:40:19:21
Speaker 3
That’s a good.

00:40:19:21 – 00:40:20:29
Speaker 2
Question. Oh, come on.

00:40:21:06 – 00:40:42:24
Speaker 4
If he taught you, you know, fine. But I’m telling you, if you tell somebody. Yeah, I, I just talk with him here. Just talk with him there. And the other person in here, they looking at you like, come on now, why would you do that? If you say he’s a spook teach. No really. He said if if you’re God don’t have no form.

00:40:42:26 – 00:40:50:15
Speaker 4
He said, who did the God who didn’t have form teach you that he didn’t have form? Or wasn’t it somebody that had form right there?

00:40:50:15 – 00:40:51:11
Speaker 2
You, me?

00:40:51:13 – 00:40:58:19
Speaker 4
And I guarantee you, if you could lead us to the person that taught you that, somebody passed it on to them. Right?

00:40:58:22 – 00:40:59:15
Speaker 2
Right.

00:40:59:18 – 00:41:20:24
Speaker 4
So the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, yeah, it got passed on and passed on. But this God that has come is like the one in the beginning. He’s made to go to the root of everything. So you know how you do an investigation. Somebody says, somebody did this. Where’d you get that from? Well, I got it from here. Well, let’s go over there, then.

00:41:20:24 – 00:41:28:15
Speaker 4
Where’d you get that? From the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Say, if you keep asking everybody, where did they get it from? It’ll go back to Mr. Yaqoob.

00:41:28:17 – 00:41:31:04
Speaker 2
He.

00:41:31:06 – 00:41:41:26
Speaker 4
Who was in this 6000 year period? The first teacher of a mystery God came.

00:41:41:28 – 00:41:45:13
Speaker 4
Maybe you. I don’t want to hear it. Is.

00:41:45:15 – 00:41:47:03
Speaker 2
Good teacher.

00:41:47:06 – 00:42:32:17
Speaker 4
But brother Ali Rashad was here with a film called The Coming of God to help us. And this. And we didn’t do well. We just didn’t do well. I don’t know what it is about Philadelphia, but somehow good people come here and we just don’t good, do good by them. When it comes to really making the crowds like Detroit and Phenix and Los Angeles and others come out to hear these great people who sit with the Messiah and bring us from his mind notes that will give us life, that ought to have us on fire.

00:42:32:20 – 00:42:35:28
Speaker 4
Say, you know what? I got somebody who needs to hear.

00:42:35:28 – 00:42:38:21
Speaker 2
It is.

00:42:38:24 – 00:43:13:27
Speaker 4
So we’ll talk about it in the weeks to come. But following him was another one of the birds of the scholars was Brother Dimitri, who’s written several, books and things. And these men have taken on an assignment from the honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, who told them, I’m in a prison. I’m in a prison of public opinion. And so their assignment is to get him out of prison.

00:43:13:29 – 00:43:50:19
Speaker 4
When you’re in a prison of public opinion, somebody else can say something about you to somebody else and get somebody else to believe that about you without even talking with you. That’s what they’ve done to the minister. The Jews and others have gone out and they put labels on him. And so if you say Farrakhan, homophobic, Farrakhan, anti-Semitic, Farrakhan, racist in reverse, imagine what they’ve done to us.

00:43:50:21 – 00:43:51:01
Speaker 2
Come on.

00:43:51:08 – 00:44:19:08
Speaker 4
And then they had the nerve to call us a racist in reverse. But, but nevertheless, these labels exist. And because the ministers say because we are lazy talking about the human being when it comes to research and searching things out, we’ll go with what anybody says. This is why when Master five Muhammad came, he said, anyone who teaches will get followers.

00:44:19:10 – 00:44:28:20
Speaker 4
That’s just how confused we are. That’s why they know that anyone that teaches the truth ought to at least be able to get 40 people.

00:44:28:26 – 00:44:29:14
Speaker 2
Come on.

00:44:29:16 – 00:44:58:12
Speaker 4
Why? Because. If somebody that will teach something ridiculous can get 40 people, how can you teach the truth and see the light of that? Truth is in you, and you can’t get 40 people. So we said, well, let’s bring the brother here. So Brother Dimitri came. We did a little better, but we’re not doing as well as we could.

00:44:58:15 – 00:45:28:16
Speaker 4
And, you know, the reality comes with there’s always a financial end to the story. People can’t fly here for free. People can’t stay here for free. People can’t eat for free. Right? And so they come to feed us. But, you know, all we need to do is put people in front of them that we know need to be fed.

00:45:28:18 – 00:46:05:10
Speaker 4
That’s that’s the purpose of bringing others. our duty is to bring civilization to the uncivilized. That’s our duty. So I’m not talking here to hurt anybody’s feelings. My own feelings are hurt. the minister would be offended. I’m offended that those that are great helpers to him, that he has great love for. You know, would come to a half empty house after traveling thousands of miles to get here.

00:46:05:10 – 00:46:46:01
Speaker 4
So we have to do better because we say we love to minister, but love, is only as good as you can show how much you love somebody like the minister. Say, when there’s no duty behind love, it minimizes the love. Yeah. So, we we ask a lot to help us, for this, today, I just want to take some time out and just going to read from some articles, of words of life from the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.

00:46:46:03 – 00:47:17:01
Speaker 4
Now, we’ve been dealing with the national agenda, which I have gotten some more in there. Only $5. But the books came as a result of an assignment. The minister gave someone to go to black leadership, and extract from them input, that could be put together in a document that would help our people to begin the real work.

00:47:17:04 – 00:47:35:11
Speaker 4
You know, it’s one thing to say we need to unite in that. But how do you do it? So another thing to say, where we need to go in the community and make change. You can’t just. Go in a community and give some food out and think you change in the community, but it does show us that you care and that’s a darn good step.

00:47:35:11 – 00:47:59:03
Speaker 4
So I would never minimize that. But what is the program and how do you link people up with a program that they can begin, to do something to really make change in their life? The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said the word alone doesn’t bring the change. It takes. It takes methods and it takes programs for the real change to come.

00:47:59:05 – 00:48:22:29
Speaker 4
We change, not because we sit up and hear some preaching on Sundays. We change because we have teaching and training. You know that the change that people see is not so much on the Sunday. It comes from the Monday and the Saturday, Yeah, it comes from the classes. That’s that’s what’s helping to bring us it. Ain’t that we so fantastic people.

00:48:22:29 – 00:48:42:15
Speaker 4
We heard a word. A whole lot of people don’t heard a good word out there. They don’t know how to link themselves up with it and become the product of that word, a living manifestation of that word. We we’re not the full manifestation of it, but we’re better off than we were.

00:48:42:17 – 00:49:00:22
Speaker 4
Because we giving it a try. So we tried to work to convince us that, look, I’ve tried everything else because we heard this didn’t come true after everything failed.

00:49:00:25 – 00:49:02:16
Speaker 2
On their.

00:49:02:19 – 00:49:32:04
Speaker 4
If. If Islam comes after everything fails, then that tells me we did try something. It just didn’t work. We may be trying something and it’s not working. So the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said didn’t come to Islam. Well, I don’t want to join Islam. I don’t want to join the Muslims, he said. You don’t join this, right? He said, you already created this.

00:49:32:06 – 00:49:59:18
Speaker 4
We didn’t ask you to join. We ask you to accept your own and be yourself. So. So before the Honorable Louis Farrakhan sent Ben Shavers out to talk with all these leaders, he had already made it clear that black America, you don’t have to join the mosque, but you should join some place. What you are cultivating right? Your spiritual.

00:49:59:18 – 00:50:01:16
Speaker 2
Life.

00:50:01:18 – 00:50:36:10
Speaker 4
And if the place that cultivates your spiritual life doesn’t have an active program to bring change to our people, then in addition to whatever house of worship you join, join an organization that’s actively working. But don’t be black. The son and daughters of slaves, and sit down and make yourself unaccounted in an hour like this. Join somebody and join something and do something to try to see our people in a better state.

00:50:36:13 – 00:51:07:08
Speaker 4
So that’s the purpose of this book, is to help us, from running all over the place. Many people have formed their organizations and agencies and stuff, and this book could prove helpful, because it provides us with every area of our existence in the present world, to help us with guiding steps, to make the quality of life better for.

00:51:07:08 – 00:51:23:21
Speaker 4
I saw where Mayor Cheryl Parker, they’re saying by the end of summer are going to clean every block in the city. Now, that’s a big undertaking.

00:51:23:23 – 00:51:56:03
Speaker 4
But it ain’t impossible. And it took a woman to say it could be done. Know? And, if you go into place, I think it’s land and qualifications and message to the black man and that. But you’ll notice there about 6 or 8 steps where the Honorable Elijah Muhammad gives us for economic development. The first one is cleaning up right.

00:51:56:05 – 00:52:25:00
Speaker 4
So they said to her, well, we need to lower this tax base and that tax burden. She said, you can you can erase the tax. She said, but if you got killing in your city and your city’s filthy, nobody want to come here and do business anyway. So she put that top on the priority to clean up, you know, we have to recognize our own program to know when somebody is doing something, you know, that’s in league with us.

00:52:25:02 – 00:52:56:12
Speaker 4
Booker T Washington was disliked by many black people. But the Honorable Elijah Muhammad loved this man. Why? Because of all the hbcu’s. It’s the students at Tuskegee that built they own campus, Booker T Washington said. We have the ability, if we set our buckets down where we are and get to work, they they, they slaughtered their own animals that they raised their to to make sure they have food in their cafeterias to live.

00:52:56:17 – 00:53:26:10
Speaker 4
And they, they bake the clay into bricks and they built their own campus. They built their own college in a land where they were making sure that we wouldn’t get into any college. So we just built one. You are you following? that’s the Honorable Elijah Muhammad language. Get up and do facil. So we have to know, because sometimes people don’t understand.

00:53:26:10 – 00:53:49:16
Speaker 4
We find the white man enough, and then we. This we never was raised up to go fight white people. We we we’re through wind up. We’re not even raised up to try to get him to change his mind and make his system work better. We raised up to build an entirely new model, and when we do that, his will become obsolete.

00:53:49:18 – 00:54:15:03
Speaker 4
Everybody will see. We don’t even need this, especially if we doing this and this is working for us. Are you following now? So? So the Scripture says about God. So he leads them in a way that they knew not. No, no civil rights leader has this roadmap on they table because God is leading this. you follow him now.

00:54:15:05 – 00:54:43:04
Speaker 4
And so nobody knows where God is going. Even the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, you must remember we building a new world right? So I must follow close behind. My God. And for you to follow him, you must follow close behind me and for us today, that means we should be close behind the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. You know, I don’t pretend to know every step, God one.

00:54:43:10 – 00:55:13:14
Speaker 4
But we know we have a natural duty to do something for ourself that’s natural, and to think any other way is unnatural. But that’s the way the enemy conditioned us to think in a way that’s unnatural. So? So your whole life dream could be, I want to go to this school, that school, this college, that college. And then what’s the endgame for you?

00:55:13:21 – 00:55:16:21
Speaker 4
And then the white man who give me a job and pay me a lot of money.

00:55:16:23 – 00:55:18:16
Speaker 2
Right.

00:55:18:19 – 00:55:41:12
Speaker 4
That’s the way we’ve been conditioned. And I don’t say you’re wrong. I say he’s wrong for robbing us of the knowledge of who we are. Because by the time you get all dem credentials, man, you could build something greater than what he could ever give you in a paycheck. But he kills that in you. The will to do something for self.

00:55:41:16 – 00:56:17:02
Speaker 4
But you could see that, that is crop that’s growing now in black people, especially black women, who make up more of the, new developed black businesses in the United States. So you breathe black enterprise and others is black women that are leading the charge, in this area. So all praises due to a law as we study, you know what’s going on because, Pharaoh and Herod’s plan was never against the men.

00:56:17:02 – 00:56:52:14
Speaker 4
It was always against the children. Right? Pharaoh said, let’s let’s kill the boy babies. Herod said, let’s kill the boy. Baby killing means to to kill your spirit. Every black mother knows when she first has her children, she sees genius. Her love sees genius. And in many cases, something far greater in intelligence. Is there holding greater promise by the time that black child is in fourth grade, somebody is before you.

00:56:52:16 – 00:57:25:07
Speaker 4
We wanted to talk about your son. He might need medication. He has a learning disorder. Just. Just follow me. And if you go across America special, it is a business. And and 85% of the people in special ed, maybe 90% of black boys. And they’re telling us not only are we not learning, they’re telling us we’re unteachable. Yes.

00:57:25:09 – 00:57:58:10
Speaker 4
That’s why you need a Farrakhan today. I mean, he’s defying this. And and and he went to some of the better schools in this country. Boys Latin is not a lightweight school in Massa Gossett. And by the time he finish, high school and went to college, he didn’t even have to purchase a book. Now, of course, that shows you what level our colleges were on.

00:57:58:14 – 00:58:28:14
Speaker 4
If he didn’t need a book. But a lot of what we think you can only learn in college, it used to be covered in grade school and high school. Okay. So, you know, today, as the minister talks about this, we were going to start Wednesday night talking about these seven phases of development we need. The first phase is moral and spiritual development.

00:58:28:16 – 00:59:04:05
Speaker 4
We’ve never really been taught that. But when you go back far enough in America, even schools started off with prayer. But they argue so much over religion. Now they decide religion doesn’t belong in school. But with the killings now in the classroom of defenseless young children being gunned down, they want you to come pray for the school. But they don’t want prayer in.

00:59:04:07 – 00:59:38:18
Speaker 4
Don’t you know that some of the gunmen that mowed down third grade, second grade children who were defenseless? If prayer had been a part of their regiment, it might not have ever happened. That doesn’t mean they’d be the best person in society. But dog man, they wouldn’t be the worst. What could be going on in your mind to say, you know, I’m going to get a high powered rifle and go in a school and just chop, cut them down in higher numbers.

00:59:38:18 – 01:00:05:01
Speaker 4
I mean, this we have to consider, these kinds of things, because the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, in the changing of worlds, there there, they’re events that are unprecedented, meaning you can’t go back in history and find another time that this ever happened. There’s no other time in history where a man just got up, killed his wife and children, and killed himself.

01:00:05:03 – 01:00:29:24
Speaker 4
There’s no other time in history that you can go back and find a precedent for going in a classroom, killing children, that are in the classroom that you don’t know, that are unsuspecting, innocent and defenseless. All right, so all of these things are coming as a result of the changing of worlds. What you do find in history.

01:00:29:27 – 01:01:03:26
Speaker 4
Because the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, in all that getting get history right is most attractive and best qualified to reward our research. And the man who was not given to folly. He says he makes a careful study of both ancient and modern history, because in modern history you’ll find ancient markings. No, you don’t find in ancient history where somebody goes in a classroom and kills children.

01:01:03:28 – 01:01:26:09
Speaker 4
But what you do find in ancient history is a government plotting against children. And that was Pharaoh and Herod, to prevent the rise of a deliverer, to prevent the birth and rise of a messiah. A death plot was put on children.

01:01:26:11 – 01:02:28:18
Speaker 4
So, we got it all into Scripture. That’s the history. But the careful study, we’re not giving it in religion. So as a result of churches, mosques, masjid, temples, synagogues, etc., where the world is in moral and spiritual decline. God, in his marvelous planning comes into a world of moral and spiritual decline, and finds the people who are worse in this condition because our moral and spiritual delinquency is equivalent to the triple darkness that was in the beginning yesterday.

01:02:28:20 – 01:02:56:24
Speaker 4
So the kind of work that has to be done, no one has ever seen this kind of work before where you in the midst of enemies, but you’re focus is not on the enemies. Your focus is on the victims. To not make them rise up and go after their enemies and defeat their enemies, they must get up and defeat the work of their enemies.

01:02:56:24 – 01:03:26:05
Speaker 4
That’s in them. If your enemy is a hater of you and me, and we have only had him as a teacher, only had him as a leader and as an administrator, then it stands to reason his hatred of us would take on a life inside of us, and we would end up victims, and our victimization is manifested in self-hatred.

01:03:26:07 – 01:04:14:01
Speaker 4
Self-hatred will keep us from ever uniting. Self-hatred will keep us from ever building a model of leadership and citizens with a government and civilization that could be successful. Because if we don’t outgrow our enemy, we’re finish. Killing our enemy is not our advantage. Why? All the white people could leave, and you and I know we would still have problems, because the work of him over this 400 year period has conditioned us to be against each other, distrust each other.

01:04:14:04 – 01:04:52:05
Speaker 4
Right? And, we’re not even inclined to unite. We’re inclined to be divided. So the first thing you have to do is have a man who specially made and condition trust. He first got to be able to see us as one people. He can’t make us one people, and he don’t even see it. And you can’t see us as one because somebody is going to be against him, right?

01:04:52:07 – 01:04:55:24
Speaker 4
So you can’t see us as one unless you love us like.

01:04:55:24 – 01:04:56:28
Speaker 2
That.

01:04:57:00 – 01:05:32:12
Speaker 4
As one. People. And so the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has given us some words that will give us life. Because when you are in moral decline, as he said, basic immorality is at the root of the moral collapse that’s going on in this world right now. And and the moral collapse is not only seen from a stick up man on the street, a carjacker right, or someone murdering someone in a school.

01:05:32:18 – 01:05:38:14
Speaker 4
It’s not only manifested in the thieves and robbers in the bank, it’s in our own homes.

01:05:38:16 – 01:05:39:08
Speaker 2
Lord.

01:05:39:11 – 01:05:50:21
Speaker 4
People talk about violence. And what are we going to do about the violence? And a lot of the violence is domestic violence.

01:05:50:23 – 01:06:22:08
Speaker 4
Only 3% of gun owners, which is about everybody in America. 3% of gun owners have shot a stranger 97% of the time when that gun is fired, they shot at somebody they know. So the gun that we say we need to protect ourselves and our families, is turning out to make a home rather than a safe place, a danger zone.

01:06:22:11 – 01:06:23:14
Speaker 2
Right.

01:06:23:16 – 01:06:29:19
Speaker 4
Not because of the gun, but because of our minds and the way our minds have been conditioned.

01:06:29:21 – 01:06:30:13
Speaker 2
In fact.

01:06:30:16 – 01:06:50:25
Speaker 4
It’s sort of one of the first things that this one did when he came, he took guns off of us. It ain’t like we ain’t never carried a gun before. Many of us have had guns, and we know what they can do. And I know, your attitude changes when you got a gun.

01:06:50:27 – 01:06:51:27
Speaker 2
In your.

01:06:51:29 – 01:07:00:07
Speaker 4
Mind. It. I’m. I have no gun on me. I hope nobody starts nothing.

01:07:00:09 – 01:07:01:06
Speaker 2
Yes, sir.

01:07:01:08 – 01:07:04:03
Speaker 4
Put my gun on me now and I’m going out. I wish somebody.

01:07:04:03 – 01:07:06:12
Speaker 2
Would.

01:07:06:14 – 01:07:18:06
Speaker 4
That’s a big change. You talking mighty big now, you know. Yeah, but you got something on your equalizer.

01:07:18:09 – 01:07:37:08
Speaker 4
And? And manhood is warped now come on. Just because you take a man’s manhood away when you don’t have a knowledge of himself, don’t mean he ain’t still trying to figure out how to become a man. He just change the definition of what a man is.

01:07:37:10 – 01:07:38:25
Speaker 2
Yes, sir. In fact.

01:07:38:27 – 01:08:07:11
Speaker 4
So. So you know my man who could be tied in with how many conquests of women I have in my life, my man who could be tied in how many people I’ve dropped on the streets of Philadelphia? Hell, they know I’m a man. I’m put some people in a damn grave. You know? So we haven’t learned. I met, you know, Yaqoob turned us upside down.

01:08:07:13 – 01:08:31:02
Speaker 4
Right? So if you look at the navel of the body, all of the driving forces and appetites that live below the navel are more primitive. That’s the sexual drives. That’s the urge for hunger to feed on food and everything. So if somebody turned you upside down, then all the lower part of the body is at the top.

01:08:31:04 – 01:08:33:00
Speaker 2
To.

01:08:33:02 – 01:09:02:24
Speaker 4
The head. That’s supposed to hold the brain and the mind is at the bottom. And it just means that the appetites of the lower nature, the Koran calls it a reigning supreme in the mind. So you live in a beast life. You’re not a beast, but you live in a beast life. You just in human form. You just eat, have sex, sleep, get high, you know, and watch the Eagles.

01:09:02:27 – 01:09:06:01
Speaker 4
Hell, at least they can fly.

01:09:10:29 – 01:09:45:10
Speaker 4
Yeah. So spiritual development starts with, moral and spiritual teaching. You have to have spiritual knowledge. People think how to eat. To live is like a, wisdom them kind of diets. Oprah Winfrey and them was on one time the the were they all know ozempic now that’s the new thing but the what was the Atkins diet but it was another one that she used to represent and Weight Watchers.

01:09:45:10 – 01:10:10:12
Speaker 4
Yeah. See, how they eat to live is not a Weight Watchers, How to eat. To live is a spiritual law to govern your physical, material body. But they but they they’re spiritual laws. They’re. You even find them in the hadith eating once every 24 hours, even getting to the point where you eat once every 48 hours.

01:10:10:14 – 01:10:42:00
Speaker 4
But but it but it takes spiritual power to control your flesh and and and come into a way of eating that actually prolongs your life, you know, everything that came from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad for us, he said, came from God himself. Right. And but by that being, everything, every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God, that’s what Jesus said.

01:10:42:03 – 01:11:02:05
Speaker 4
But Satan tested him and said, turn, you know, turn these stone stones in the loaves of bread, or some man don’t live by bread alone. I do need material, I need money. You know, the the slang on the street for money was bread. You got any bread on you, man? You know, but we don’t live by that alone.

01:11:02:06 – 01:11:07:26
Speaker 4
But by what? Every word that proceedeth from the.

01:11:07:26 – 01:11:09:19
Speaker 2
Mouth.

01:11:09:22 – 01:11:40:12
Speaker 4
Of the living God. And right there to show you how we were in moral and spiritual darkness. If it’s coming from the mouths of the living God, then God got a mouth. But yet we said, you know, he’s invisible. Spooky. But yeah, so, Jesus is on a spiritual plane flight fighting Satan because all Satan is not spiritual.

01:11:40:12 – 01:12:08:28
Speaker 4
He’s blind and cannot discern spiritual things. Dude, y’all with me now. This is why a lot takes a man from the street and the man comes into this spiritual knowledge, unequaled wisdom. He starts getting this more life together. So it says Saul’s making goodly his form. He’s forming up better then a lot. Takes his spirit and puts into the man.

01:12:09:04 – 01:12:29:19
Speaker 4
He said, now that I made him complete. And what is Satan say? Or Iblis say? You know I’m better than him. why are you better? you made me a fire. He’s made a dust. Well, what about the spiritual stuff? I just put my spirit in it. What about the way he came to fill our class? We shaped him up.

01:12:29:19 – 01:12:57:20
Speaker 4
We made goodly his form. What about the. The sisters class? We made goodly have form. He don’t see spiritual work. Are you following me now? And this is why the prophet said in the heartbeat. The Antichrist. He’s blind in his right eye. That’s a spiritual discernment. Yeah, but his left eye is like a shining star, a floating grape.

01:12:57:23 – 01:13:04:18
Speaker 4
He would excel in material things so he can build beautiful places. He just not a beautiful person.

01:13:04:20 – 01:13:06:08
Speaker 2
He’s,

01:13:06:10 – 01:13:27:12
Speaker 4
So we have to understand what we are in. Because sometime you’ll get confused. And the way the human being is confused, it look like the one who’s got most of the money. who’s got most of the stuff? They must be right. I ain’t got nothing. So I must be wrong, That’s up. That’s quick math.

01:13:27:12 – 01:13:33:29
Speaker 2
Now, the difference. Right. Well, look.

01:13:34:02 – 01:13:50:06
Speaker 4
Look what the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said to us. He’s a spiritual teacher. He said Allah never gave the righteous, he could not make a condition that was identical to the tyrants and the oppressor.

01:13:50:08 – 01:13:52:09
Speaker 2
You see.

01:13:52:11 – 01:14:07:01
Speaker 4
That? Think about that. How can a man come and teach you that you’ve been robbed and you got just as much money as, every billionaire that’s out here? Are you going to that mosque to listen to them?

01:14:08:06 – 01:14:15:17
Speaker 4
No. Well, you know, everybody came before me, was thieves and robbers said, well, I don’t know who they stole from. I got mine.

01:14:15:20 – 01:14:17:02
Speaker 2
Too.

01:14:17:04 – 01:14:48:24
Speaker 4
You know, so the righteous never have a week, and, you’re supposed to start out like this will look like they got everything, and it look like you got nothing to work with. And and and and what’s going to put them to shame is when your God blesses you and blesses me to overcome. And not a smaller bank account, just a smaller way of thinking, right?

01:14:48:27 – 01:15:25:26
Speaker 4
The righteous are in a land. They saying, oh my God, God didn’t tell us about the giants in the land, but what God was trying to show him is there are no giants in the land. You just have a midget mentality. But if you let me teach you, you see, and you start seeing the greater aspects of yourself, you will outgrow this tiny house of oppression that you in and and build a new kingdom that I can show them all over the earth.

01:15:25:29 – 01:15:58:14
Speaker 4
what we’ve been able to do. Because I went to a people who had been made nothing, who were left with nothing, who see themselves as nothing and nothingness with the God in the beginning was the field that he created himself in, out of nothingness. That’s what he used to, build what we call the universe. So nothingness is a perfect field for God to show that he’s a God.

01:15:58:16 – 01:16:28:02
Speaker 4
Because he said, man, I started from nothing, and I made a way out of no way. And I made you from nothing more than. And made you to have status in the earth. I’ll take Malcolm Little and the mugshot that he got to go to prison. And you going to take that when I’m finished with. And you going to take that same picture and put it on a United State postal stamp?

01:16:28:04 – 01:16:29:06
Speaker 2
Go ahead.

01:16:29:09 – 01:16:51:12
Speaker 4
See you. You going to. So God is God is going to bless us. He’s not trying to wait to bless us on the other side. So all that, you know, we’re going to go through this. And when we get to heaven, God’s going to bless us. This is we need a tough God. We need a God that’s tougher than that.

01:16:51:14 – 01:17:09:15
Speaker 4
He’s scared. You telling me he’s scared to come down here and deal with this? And I got a feeling on my own. And he can’t. He don’t have the power to bless me till I get out of this man’s hand. This is why this God has come right up in here in the middle of this.

01:17:09:17 – 01:17:11:20
Speaker 4
And. And he’s not a victim.

01:17:11:25 – 01:17:13:20
Speaker 2
That’s.

01:17:13:23 – 01:17:35:19
Speaker 4
And he comes to a people who are completely victimized and said, if you come to me and submit to me, I set you in heaven, everyone. You can’t set nobody in heaven at once. except you take away they feelings of victimization. If you feel like a victim, you’re going to be scared to make a move today because you always be concerned.

01:17:35:19 – 01:18:00:16
Speaker 4
What’s the white man going to do if I go do that? If I put a bow tie on, if he see me at Savior’s day, don’t take no, you know, you just you’ll be too scared to take. That’s why the Honorable Elijah Muhammad say, my message is just not for cowards. I can’t. A coward will never be able to prove that God came to Jesus.

01:18:00:18 – 01:18:17:22
Speaker 4
And the. And the many things that the two brothers showed us that came in the last two weeks here. All of all of those things, they have to come from a point of courage. It’s one thing to find something out. It’s another thing to have the courage to put it out on the table so everybody can see it.

01:18:17:24 – 01:18:18:09
Speaker 4
That take.

01:18:18:09 – 01:18:20:10
Speaker 2
Courage.

01:18:20:12 – 01:18:54:10
Speaker 4
See, because these are secrets that somebody else knew, but they’re too scared to bring it out. But see, we’re lifting out every secret now. We not we do this. God goes to the root of everything. and those that are learning from him do the same. the minister said so many of us today are steeped in religiosity that we lose spirituality.

01:18:54:12 – 01:18:58:24
Speaker 4
Can we go back over that one again? We got a lot of religion and no spirit.

01:18:58:27 – 01:19:00:25
Speaker 2
To even.

01:19:00:27 – 01:19:32:23
Speaker 4
So, many of us are bound in rituals that we have lost the truth to which the rituals are pointing us to. So we say, this is Communion Sunday, right? And we’re going to have some crackers and grape juice or, you know, eat this bread, this is up my body and drink this wine. This is of my blood in remembrance of me.

01:19:32:26 – 01:20:03:24
Speaker 4
He said, do this when I’m not here. Do this in remembrance of me. Now, if you were literally eating somebody’s body flesh and literally drinking somebody’s blood, you’d be accountable. And nothing spiritual about that. This is why you have to have spiritual knowledge, so you can look at things that are described in one way, but you see the spiritual, metaphoric meaning of it, right?

01:20:03:26 – 01:20:17:00
Speaker 4
Like you can eat of all the fruit of the garden, but this one tree to tree of knowledge and good and evil, well, materially we understand the science of botany. That’s plant life.

01:20:17:03 – 01:20:18:00
Speaker 2
Right?

01:20:18:02 – 01:20:42:16
Speaker 4
And one thing you know about plant life is one seed can produce two different kinds of fruit. So you can’t plant a seed for an orange tree to grow. And then when the tree grows and produces fruit, it’ll have oranges and apples on it. It can’t it can’t happen. Right. So to say a tree had two different kinds of fruit is obviously it’s casted forth a metaphor.

01:20:42:18 – 01:20:44:08
Speaker 2
One right.

01:20:44:11 – 01:21:07:12
Speaker 4
But it grows like a tree because something has to be planted first. And the only thing that can be planted that grows is a seed. And a seed has an identity and a plan already in it. That’s why all you have to do is planted. You can’t get in there and build it. It builds itself up right?

01:21:07:14 – 01:21:16:12
Speaker 4
So the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, trees don’t have knowledge. It’s a tree of knowledge of good and evil. It’s a people.

01:21:16:15 – 01:21:17:13
Speaker 2
Meaning a.

01:21:17:13 – 01:21:32:04
Speaker 4
Family tree, who have grown to know divine guidance and trick knowledge at the same time. A tree don’t eat from that tree because these people are going to deceive the whole world before us.

01:21:32:04 – 01:21:37:12
Speaker 2
Over whom.

01:21:37:14 – 01:22:09:11
Speaker 4
so the minister says, so many. We bound up in rituals. We circum ambulate around the Kaaba. And that’s okay, because, it’s a it’s a requirement in Islam if you have the means to go and to make Hajj. But the Honorable Elijah Muhammad reminds us that the Kaaba is is a is a structure that the Muslim world doesn’t have a real knowledge of.

01:22:09:13 – 01:22:14:24
Speaker 4
And in the Kaaba, I mean, the in the north corner is a black stone.

01:22:14:26 – 01:22:17:18
Speaker 2
Right, right.

01:22:17:21 – 01:22:29:26
Speaker 4
And, it’s a ritual that they circle manually. They kiss the stone, you know. But the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, I have been kissing myself. Why do you say that?

01:22:29:28 – 01:22:30:18
Speaker 2
Okay.

01:22:30:20 – 01:22:50:09
Speaker 4
Because. Because it’s a ritual. And the minister teaches us stored up. And the ritual is the greater truth. The ritual just keeps the truth alive, so to speak, until the defining power of why you’re doing what you’re doing.

01:22:50:12 – 01:22:52:27
Speaker 2
Come on.

01:22:53:00 – 01:22:57:04
Speaker 4
So we’ll go to that. But that won’t save us.

01:22:57:07 – 01:22:57:12
Speaker 2
At.

01:22:57:12 – 01:23:22:08
Speaker 4
All. But he said, it means that that black stone is that black man that’s being raised up in North America with an unequaled wisdom, a knowledge that is superior and surpasses all knowledge because he taught him from the forest horizon, he said, that means he takes him further into his wisdom than he’s ever taken. Any man.

01:23:24:08 – 01:23:39:28
Speaker 4
That wisdom can’t be championed by any other people. So you’re going to have to circum ambulate around this wisdom and this people that you did not know.

01:23:40:00 – 01:23:46:11
Speaker 4
Him. Rituals. They waiting on Elijah?

01:23:46:15 – 01:23:47:08
Speaker 2
Yes.

01:23:47:11 – 01:23:51:11
Speaker 4
In the Jewish faith. Who did right. They leave the door ajar.

01:23:53:07 – 01:23:57:02
Speaker 4
yes. With what they leave on the table for it. Well. Elijah’s here.

01:23:57:05 – 01:23:59:21
Speaker 2
That’s right. Good.

01:23:59:23 – 01:24:07:26
Speaker 4
Then it goes on to say so many of us are spiritual hypocrites, which who strain at a net and swallow the camel.

01:24:07:28 – 01:24:11:29
Speaker 2
Who have come next.

01:24:12:02 – 01:24:42:21
Speaker 4
You know, so somebody’s house catch on fire. They run down to the church of the mass or whatever, and whatever uniform they supposed to have got burnt up, smoked up, you know, so they put on whatever they could to still make it. They have a hard time getting in these houses today because religiosity, you ain’t got the right thing on.

01:24:42:23 – 01:25:15:25
Speaker 4
But the reality is they just went through something right there. We ought to be thankful they alive right? It’s not. The wall is growing cold. Right. We’ll jack people up about the net, but we swallowing the camel of hypocrisy. The minister said. And this is the way the religious leaders got into the time of Jesus. And so the people were under hardships in the temples.

01:25:15:28 – 01:25:22:29
Speaker 4
when you’re in moral and spiritual darkness, good and evil look the same.

01:25:23:02 – 01:25:23:26
Speaker 2
Yes.

01:25:23:28 – 01:25:49:09
Speaker 4
So it’s very hard to distinguish and and get your way out of it. and Satan, he knows Scripture, so he knows how to quote it. Remember he quoted scripture on Jesus Christ. Jesus was beaten him back with Scripture. Then that’s then Satan said, it is also written that. And Jesus said, yeah. And it’s also written. And they fighting back with the Word of God.

01:25:49:09 – 01:25:50:02
Speaker 4
You know.

01:25:50:04 – 01:25:50:28
Speaker 2
Brother, listen.

01:25:51:00 – 01:26:18:07
Speaker 4
So, the, you know, the, the, the spiritual development of us, first we gotta recognize that we actually have a spiritual component. Many, many of our young people today, they probably feel like the spirit is worthless, right? Because of the way we’ve handled religion, making them think this is the only place you can get spirituality.

01:26:18:09 – 01:26:19:18
Speaker 2
But that’s all.

01:26:19:21 – 01:26:33:16
Speaker 4
This is why Farrakhan is out there saying, turn the young people over to the Nation of Islam. Why? So they can just join up in the mosque now so they can get real spirituality?

01:26:33:18 – 01:26:37:06
Speaker 2
That’s right. The knowledge that comes from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

01:26:37:11 – 01:26:45:19
Speaker 4
Is spirit filled knowledge, and every word he preached had three elements in it. The first was light.

01:26:45:21 – 01:26:46:22
Speaker 2
Jehovah.

01:26:46:24 – 01:27:17:00
Speaker 4
Light is the agency by which we see without light you could have the ability to see, but if there is no light, you still can’t see nothing. That’s like a man. You have the ability to learn. But if nobody is giving you anything worth learning, then your mind stays dark, right? Darkness in physic only has a reality when light don’t show up.

01:27:17:03 – 01:27:20:07
Speaker 3
Teeth.

01:27:20:10 – 01:27:39:29
Speaker 4
Darkness can’t fight light when it comes. All light has to do is come on. It don’t even have to fight the darkness. The scriptures say when light comes on, darkness is dispelled. When knowledge goes in your head, ignorance is dispelled. Right?

01:27:40:01 – 01:27:43:24
Speaker 2
Okay, so.

01:27:43:26 – 01:27:48:21
Speaker 4
So it’s got light in it. Then it has life in it.

01:27:48:23 – 01:27:50:04
Speaker 2
Right?

01:27:50:06 – 01:27:55:23
Speaker 4
And he said, I’m come that you may have life. Then he said, have it more abundantly.

01:27:55:28 – 01:27:56:21
Speaker 2
Yes, sir.

01:27:56:23 – 01:28:11:26
Speaker 4
So we have to we have to get into how the minister describes that. But all, all of this, all of this represents our needed moral and spiritual development.

01:28:13:13 – 01:28:19:19
Speaker 4
I’m not going to read the whole article, but I want to get over to.

01:28:19:22 – 01:28:59:22
Speaker 4
Where he’s saying, my beloved brothers and sisters, the one who said I have come could not have been talking about a prophetic community that came before this one because while all of them mounted on wings of truth and gave life to their communities, they did not give it in abundance. so that doesn’t mean that there weren’t communities from ancient periods on that,

01:28:59:25 – 01:29:14:16
Speaker 4
Did not receive a word that gave some measure of life. But this one claims I’ve come, that you may have life and even have it more abundantly.

01:29:14:19 – 01:29:15:02
Speaker 2
Right?

01:29:15:04 – 01:29:42:05
Speaker 4
So the minister said, what is this life in abundance that he came to give? Good question. Okay. And he asked the other question. Do you have it? he said, don’t tell me that you know him yet you do not have life and have life in abundance.

01:29:42:08 – 01:30:11:01
Speaker 4
So he’s starting to break it down now, he said, Abraham did not say, I am a Jew. The Holy Quran says he was neither Christian or a Jew, but he was an upright man and was not of the polytheists yet Jesus and Moses paid honor to Abraham. So you say Moses brought Judaism. You can’t find that either, right?

01:30:11:04 – 01:30:24:25
Speaker 4
You said Jesus broke Christianity. You can’t find that either. But even if they did, they both paid honor to Abraham, who was not a Christian or Jew.

01:30:24:27 – 01:30:52:05
Speaker 4
He said they honored paid honor to Abraham as the friend of God. Don’t you want to be what Abraham was? Don’t you want to be what Jesus was, what Moses was, what Muhammad was? If all of these great men were on the stage today, not one of them would be a variance with the other, right?

01:30:52:07 – 01:30:53:20
Speaker 2
And that’s right.

01:30:53:22 – 01:31:15:25
Speaker 4
They all belong to the same school. Teach Abraham was the foundation right? Abraham was the foundation of that school. Like the first grade. But the first grade teacher passes you on to the next grade.

01:31:15:27 – 01:31:18:15
Speaker 2
Right? You go ahead.

01:31:18:18 – 01:31:31:02
Speaker 4
The teacher don’t tell you don’t pay no attention to your second grade teacher. If you leave in first grade, who you going to pay attention to?

01:31:31:04 – 01:32:04:29
Speaker 4
So you got people when another one comes behind a prophet, they want to reject him. And so the ministers say, if you reject, then Jesus because of Moses, or rejecting Moses because of Abraham, if he’s saying, then, I’m the best teacher that you ever had. So you will be in the first grade for the rest of your life.

01:32:05:01 – 01:32:06:12
Speaker 2
Going on with God.

01:32:06:19 – 01:32:16:08
Speaker 4
Every time we reject the next one that God sins, we deny ourselves moving up to the next grade. Are you.

01:32:16:08 – 01:32:18:14
Speaker 2
Following? And so.

01:32:18:17 – 01:32:23:11
Speaker 4
We decided. The one who taught me a disgrace. That’s all I need to know.

01:32:23:13 – 01:32:24:00
Speaker 2
To.

01:32:24:02 – 01:32:25:23
Speaker 4
And that’s all you’re going to ever be.

01:32:26:00 – 01:32:26:23
Speaker 2
Right.

01:32:26:26 – 01:32:31:04
Speaker 4
Is what you know. But you can’t limit God.

01:32:31:06 – 01:32:32:15
Speaker 2
That’s right. No, sir.

01:32:32:17 – 01:32:34:22
Speaker 4
Who’s the. Who’s the master teacher?

01:32:34:25 – 01:32:35:27
Speaker 2
Yes, right.

01:32:35:29 – 01:32:38:03
Speaker 4
He’s heading up the school.

01:32:38:06 – 01:32:39:15
Speaker 2
Right.

01:32:39:18 – 01:32:44:15
Speaker 4
He’s the one that set the grades up for us to move from one to another.

01:32:44:21 – 01:32:48:03
Speaker 2
Right. State.

01:32:48:05 – 01:33:11:08
Speaker 4
He said Moses was like grammar school. Moses said he’s coming. And he passed us on to Jesus. Now, the problem is Jesus also passed us on. And if you go back and read in the book of John, the 1415, 16, 17 chapters, Jesus said, it is expedient for you that I go away.

01:33:11:11 – 01:33:14:14
Speaker 2
Yes, sir.

01:33:14:16 – 01:33:43:11
Speaker 4
If I go not away, the comforter cannot come unto you right now. So you can’t have two teachers standing up in the same classroom, right? So both of them trying to teach you at the same time, if Moses was like grammar school, he was preparing you for the next teacher. If you leave grammar school and go to high school, you don’t go back to the grammar school once you’re in the high school.

01:33:43:14 – 01:33:44:01
Speaker 2
Right?

01:33:44:04 – 01:33:47:02
Speaker 4
If you learn well in grammar school, you do well in high.

01:33:47:02 – 01:33:50:17
Speaker 3
School, right? Jesus.

01:33:50:20 – 01:34:05:16
Speaker 4
One grade is designed to prepare you for the next grade. Yes, sir. You said, well, what grade are we in now? He told the minister, what I’m giving you is a wake up message.

01:34:05:18 – 01:34:12:22
Speaker 4
You can’t go nowhere with a wake up message. I woke up this morning. I was in the same bed. I went to sleep.

01:34:12:22 – 01:34:15:00
Speaker 2
In my right. Now.

01:34:15:02 – 01:34:26:27
Speaker 4
Are you following me now? I got up from my morning prayer, but I was. When I woke up. I was still in the place where I fell asleep.

01:34:26:29 – 01:34:35:24
Speaker 4
So if you will sleep in Chicago and sleep in Detroit. When he came and you woke up, you were still in Detroit and still in Chicago.

01:34:35:24 – 01:34:38:22
Speaker 2
So it would teach you.

01:34:38:22 – 01:34:43:08
Speaker 4
We always talked about going somewhere else rather than being something.

01:34:43:08 – 01:34:55:23
Speaker 2
Else, getting some more rather than becoming more than you won’t settle for less.

01:34:55:25 – 01:35:21:26
Speaker 4
Let me see where I was so. I want the comforter to come. But if I go, not away. I. Oh, if I go away, I will send him unto you. And when he comes, he’s talking about somebody else. People keep saying Jesus said he was coming back. We cannot find this anywhere. But we do see where he keeps on about when he comes.

01:35:22:04 – 01:35:53:23
Speaker 4
Jesus did not say when I return. Jesus said, when he is come, the spirit of truth, he will guide you into all truth. He didn’t say, when he comes, I will guide you into all truth. See people trying to make like he he brought himself up in the third person. What what what the enemy has done. He has found, spiritual teaching after coming out of the caves.

01:35:53:26 – 01:36:00:09
Speaker 4
We’re always talking about running somebody in the cave we need to talk about when they came out, because they ain’t in no cave no more.

01:36:01:24 – 01:36:07:11
Speaker 4
Yeah. One Sunday we’re just going to spend a Sunday on. When did they come out of the cave? What? How did they do that?

01:36:07:13 – 01:36:08:00
Speaker 2
Jesus.

01:36:08:03 – 01:36:14:27
Speaker 4
When was that and how did they get a hold of the Hebrew or the Hebraic writings?

01:36:14:29 – 01:36:16:26
Speaker 2
Question answered. Yes.

01:36:16:28 – 01:36:23:27
Speaker 4
when did they start having weddings? Enter marrying somebody conducted that marriage.

01:36:23:29 – 01:36:26:12
Speaker 2
Teach.

01:36:26:15 – 01:36:45:05
Speaker 4
And by the time they finish, every black face was gone from Egypt, gone from Judea, which was Palestine, which they call Israel now. Right. And all the Holy Land in Mecca, they were gone, and every face was white.

01:36:45:08 – 01:36:49:00
Speaker 2
Come on. Go here.

01:36:49:03 – 01:37:00:29
Speaker 4
Just, you know, gentrification used to be they move you out and they moved in. But that ain’t what y’all told me. So now you go rent a room in the house.

01:37:01:01 – 01:37:01:25
Speaker 3
Look at that.

01:37:01:28 – 01:37:16:06
Speaker 4
Yeah, they already in there. What you going to do in there? We’re going to intermarry to. We rounded some up and got rid of them, but he said we didn’t find all them. We just got rid of the ones we found. The other ones grew up.

01:37:16:09 – 01:37:18:12
Speaker 2
Yeah.

01:37:18:15 – 01:37:41:05
Speaker 4
Well. so to close this out, look at the minister said, Jesus said a generation shall not pass before you see these things. The minister goes on, many generations have passed. Scripture is not wrong. He said. Our understanding of it needs to be corrected.

01:37:41:07 – 01:37:42:12
Speaker 2
In.

01:37:42:14 – 01:38:04:25
Speaker 4
Saying nothing wrong with the scriptures, the we we have the wrong understanding of it. You can’t have Scripture and had a wrong understanding of it. You don’t have a whole world waiting on somebody to come back that if if it was like what we believed, we’d be in disbelief.

01:38:04:27 – 01:38:23:08
Speaker 4
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, if a man was in the sky for 2000 years and came back and taught right here before the fall, we close out with prayer. You’ll be tapping on your phone. Do you believe he’s 2000 years old? I know you.

01:38:23:10 – 01:38:24:07
Speaker 2
Real tough.

01:38:24:09 – 01:38:38:12
Speaker 4
By the time I get home, it’s on Facebook and Instagram and everything and you’ll say, read all the comments. Ain’t nobody, no thousand years. See yo nature man, like, come on, somebody.

01:38:38:14 – 01:38:40:08
Speaker 2
Be.

01:38:40:10 – 01:38:42:29
Speaker 4
We just don’t see it properly.

01:38:47:03 – 01:39:06:14
Speaker 4
but the minister said our understanding needs to be corrected. He said once our understanding is corrected, we will all be on the same page, and nobody can divide us. He ain’t talking about getting rid of the the book. He ain’t talking about getting rid of a prophet. He ain’t. He’s not even talking about getting rid of your religion.

01:39:06:14 – 01:39:11:29
Speaker 4
You can stay in it. The being on the same page don’t mean you leave your house and join this house.

01:39:12:01 – 01:39:12:24
Speaker 2
Right?

01:39:12:27 – 01:39:16:08
Speaker 4
It means we all bring our houses in order.

01:39:16:10 – 01:39:16:17
Speaker 2
With.

01:39:16:17 – 01:39:22:18
Speaker 4
God’s plan.

01:39:22:21 – 01:39:26:06
Speaker 2
Right. You.

01:39:26:09 – 01:39:40:11
Speaker 4
So he says, seven centuries after Jesus Muhammad was born. Muhammad never condemned Jesus, right, people? That’s right. Muhammad condemned Jesus out of misunderstanding.

01:39:40:14 – 01:39:44:29
Speaker 2
All right. Right now let’s teach brother man people.

01:39:44:29 – 01:39:46:21
Speaker 4
That’s what Jesus condemned. Muhammad.

01:39:46:23 – 01:39:47:23
Speaker 2
Yes.

01:39:47:26 – 01:39:53:04
Speaker 4
Out of great, gross misunderstanding.

01:39:53:06 – 01:40:24:23
Speaker 4
Muhammad. Never condemn Moses or Abraham. Muhammad never told his followers to kill Christians or Jews, right? See, they they they had crusades where this was going on. The mindset say your mind is centered in the past in an ancient Roman government, when you are living in a modern Roman government. You know, they celebrate Columbus Day.

01:40:24:25 – 01:40:25:22
Speaker 2
Right?

01:40:25:24 – 01:40:31:16
Speaker 4
And the lessons teach us. Columbus was born in Italy, right?

01:40:31:19 – 01:40:32:27
Speaker 2
That’s right.

01:40:33:00 – 01:40:34:18
Speaker 4
In Southeast Europe.

01:40:34:21 – 01:40:36:10
Speaker 2
Yes, sir.

01:40:36:12 – 01:40:43:01
Speaker 4
But it was the Spaniards that financed his voyage.

01:40:43:04 – 01:40:52:01
Speaker 4
But even though they celebrate Columbus Day, it was an Italian explorer, Amerigo Vespucci.

01:40:52:04 – 01:40:53:08
Speaker 2
Right.

01:40:53:10 – 01:41:02:16
Speaker 4
That America is named after a Roman because the Romans never died or went extinct. They just changed a name to Italians.

01:41:02:23 – 01:41:03:19
Speaker 2
Right.

01:41:03:21 – 01:41:35:09
Speaker 4
But those are the Romans. You read nowhere where the Romans were extinct, and they were gone from the face of the earth. They the same people. So we’re we’re in a modern day Roman Empire. Rome had a Senate. Rome had representatives of the people. Right? Rome had a great army that spread itself out so thin. Rome Rome was known for assassination of its own leaders.

01:41:35:12 – 01:41:54:12
Speaker 4
The Ides of March, they killed Julius Caesar, and everybody had to stab him. So no one could say this one did it at that. They all had a hand in it, and they killed their leaders, just like they killed their presidents. Here.

01:41:54:15 – 01:41:57:25
Speaker 4
Rome, never was conquered.

01:41:58:29 – 01:42:07:06
Speaker 4
By any great army or nation. She rotted from the inside.

01:42:07:08 – 01:42:08:21
Speaker 2
Right.

01:42:08:23 – 01:42:22:16
Speaker 4
And this modern day Roman Empire is rotting from the inside. And it caused the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan one Saviors Day to take up the subject. The unraveling.

01:42:22:19 – 01:42:22:25
Speaker 2
Of.

01:42:22:25 – 01:42:24:00
Speaker 4
A great nation.

01:42:24:02 – 01:42:26:11
Speaker 2
Right.

01:42:26:14 – 01:42:32:18
Speaker 4
We’re not here with swords out taking America down. We’re spectators.

01:42:32:20 – 01:42:33:06
Speaker 2
Right.

01:42:33:08 – 01:42:36:02
Speaker 4
We just watching it happen.

01:42:36:04 – 01:42:37:01
Speaker 2
That’s right.

01:42:37:03 – 01:43:17:08
Speaker 4
We’re not up devising no plans against the white House or doing anything, no matter what they try to accuse us of trying to. They’re doing this to themselves because they’re in moral and spiritual darkness or blindness. So it’s a modern day Rome, and the minister goes on a read down a little further. He said, if both Bible and holy Koran talk about a man coming, the likes of Moses, you do not need to know his picture.

01:43:17:11 – 01:43:47:23
Speaker 4
You need to look for the circumstances and see what voice and program is rising among and enslave people. See, they sell us on pictures. They already don’t admit it. They had the wrong picture of Jesus up on. It was one big my bad, right? In America, you with that picture that they had for years and got away with it until light came.

01:43:47:26 – 01:44:12:15
Speaker 4
Once light came into the mind of the slave, it dispelled the darkness. Part of the darkness was, you’re being oppressed by somebody who’s white. Your woman’s being raped by somebody who’s white. Your daughter’s rape, your mother’s raped by somebody who’s white. You’re being deceived by somebody who’s white. You’ve been enslaved by somebody who’s white, and the man that’s going to save you and who died for you was white.

01:44:12:18 – 01:44:13:12
Speaker 2
Sorry about.

01:44:13:15 – 01:44:17:23
Speaker 4
That. A mess your mind up.

01:44:17:25 – 01:44:37:05
Speaker 4
It makes you, despite every evil that someone white is doing to you. It makes you keep making excuses and become an apologist for that evil. Because you’re still looking at that picture, right? It must be one good one amongst.

01:44:37:08 – 01:44:51:10
Speaker 4
And if it is, they’re probably afraid of those who are not so good. And what they’ll do to him doesn’t mean there haven’t been some better, well-meaning white folks. But, it don sure, we we don’t know about them.

01:44:52:20 – 01:45:19:28
Speaker 4
That’s the that’s the big problem. And don’t don’t look at black folks with the bling bling. Right. The minister has already told us Satan has changed his strategy. The initial strategy was, was these Negroes make some money when they die, they’re going to die broke. So they are able to pass no wealth on to their families or anything.

01:45:19:28 – 01:45:41:19
Speaker 4
So we hardly know of the in the 50s, 60s, definitely in the 40s and 30s, there was no black entertainer that we know that died rich. Right. So the strategy has changed now. And now the new strategy that Satan has let these Negroes die rich, but they just won’t have no power with this money. And you know what?

01:45:41:22 – 01:46:05:23
Speaker 4
If I can destroy your brand, you could have billions of dollars. You can’t go to nobody’s party. They don’t want you to see they doing P Diddy like that right now. Used to be everywhere. Had the vodka, all different colors and Ciroc and everybody sipping and enjoying himself and everything and see they’re not finished. They showing videos of the what’s going on in the hall.

01:46:05:23 – 01:46:28:22
Speaker 4
So you can’t be out here live in any kind of way. They just storing all that information to get ready to come at you right. To tear you down. Are they trying to break him and make sure he has no money? I know they mad about vote TV. Is it revolt? Yeah, revolt because they warned him. Don’t you show Louis Farrakhan?

01:46:28:24 – 01:46:31:16
Speaker 4
And he showed the whole thing?

01:46:31:19 – 01:46:32:07
Speaker 2
Yeah.

01:46:32:09 – 01:46:58:12
Speaker 4
Don’t think that. Don’t have something to do with it. Because we’re supposed to think they really care about black women. They. You take them about what happened October 7th, then these women getting raped and everything. We’re talking three centuries. And we’re not even. We’re talking about if we say, can’t you just at least apologize for they refuse to do that, right?

01:46:58:14 – 01:47:26:29
Speaker 4
Is government on record has no apology for rape. Black women selling, black women’s babies off to never see them again. and all of the destructive things that they have done and are doing, they, they’re not on record with not even an apology, but they’re telling you what other people are owed when they’re sitting here. See, there no moral position.

01:47:27:02 – 01:47:27:07
Speaker 3
To.

01:47:27:07 – 01:47:36:12
Speaker 4
Be condemning anyone. so.

01:47:36:14 – 01:47:42:16
Speaker 4
I’m going to move up to just to close this out.

01:47:42:18 – 01:48:17:12
Speaker 4
Look at here, the Jesus of 2000 years ago. He said he was a prophet. He did a prophetic work. But the Jesus that is the great figure in both Bible and Koran is the Messiah. The Messiah is not a prophet. The Messiah is a human being acting in the place of God with wisdom and power that does not belong to him, but he has been anointed.

01:48:17:14 – 01:48:41:26
Speaker 4
You may not understand why I quote the Bible sometimes more than the Holy Koran. That’s because you do not have my assignment. You cannot read. Look at this now. You cannot raise the dead to life without a knowledge of the Torah, right? A knowledge of the gospel and a knowledge of the Holy Koran.

01:48:41:28 – 01:48:44:06
Speaker 2
Things, brother, medicine.

01:48:44:08 – 01:49:14:12
Speaker 4
Whatever Allah will give you, you have to be in those three major books because they are books that later Foundation. For the one that said I have, I am come that you may have life and have it more abundantly. A modern Jesus, the Messiah, comes with wisdom that opens the eyes of the blind. Look at the resume, makes the deaf hear the dumb speak and raises the dead to life.

01:49:14:12 – 01:49:46:01
Speaker 4
By Allah’s permission. In the Bible is John the Baptist that asked the question, he’s in jail, right? And he sends one of his disciples to Jesus to ask him, are you the one right? Or should we look for another? And he never said, I am the one. He said, go tell John that the blind see. Go and tell him that the deaf hear right, that the lame walk, the dumb speak, the lame walk, that the that the poor have.

01:49:46:01 – 01:49:58:06
Speaker 4
The gospel preached to them. By these things he will know I don’t have to send him a picture. We’re not looking for pictures today. We’re looking for who fulfills the resumé.

01:49:58:10 – 01:49:59:23
Speaker 2
That’s right.

01:49:59:25 – 01:50:32:01
Speaker 4
Of the one that was predicted to come because in the prediction is what he would do when he comes. So he says, here. the Messiah comes. He opens the eyes of the blind, make the deaf to dumb speak. He raises the dead to life by loss. For me. He does not have this power on his own. But God is so wise to prove his power, he will raise one from the dead and then send that one to raise the rest.

01:50:32:04 – 01:50:58:17
Speaker 4
I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly. He is growing or going to lengthen your days by teaching you how to eat, to live you. He’s going to put the right foods in your mouth, put the right thoughts in your brain because the brain and the stomach work together to preserve your life.

01:50:58:19 – 01:51:01:26
Speaker 2
Go ahead, a woman wrote.

01:51:01:26 – 01:51:20:15
Speaker 4
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, who said she followed to the letter everything that was in how to eat, to live. And, she didn’t feel well. She didn’t see herself getting healthier. And he saw her thinking was wrong.

01:51:20:18 – 01:51:23:25
Speaker 3
Who he.

01:51:23:27 – 01:51:33:05
Speaker 4
You can’t even follow how to eat, to live until the brain successfully has control over the stomach.

01:51:40:15 – 01:52:12:09
Speaker 4
But the ministers say he’s going to put the right thoughts in your brain because the brain and stomach work together, he said. But this scripture means even more than that, he comes to give you abundant life. You are already alive on the physical level, but he came to give us life on the spiritual, mental and moral level. You know, you are beginning to come to life when the self accusing spirit begins to nag you.

01:52:12:09 – 01:52:15:12
Speaker 4
When you do that which is not right.

01:52:15:14 – 01:52:18:29
Speaker 2
See you going.

01:52:19:02 – 01:52:26:26
Speaker 4
When you lay down at night and something starts jabbing you saying to you, you should not have done.

01:52:26:26 – 01:52:28:10
Speaker 2
That.

01:52:28:12 – 01:52:59:16
Speaker 4
That means you are coming alive morally. Do not kill that spirit when it tells you you are wrong. Admit it and change your behavior while you are coming to life. The greatest life is that a lot comes to share with us his mind. Let this mind be in you the same that was in Christ Jesus. He is coming to take you from where you are and make you what you were in the beginning.

01:52:59:18 – 01:53:04:23
Speaker 4
Because in the beginning you were a God.

01:53:04:26 – 01:53:06:00
Speaker 4
Oh boy.

01:53:06:02 – 01:53:06:20
Speaker 2
Oh.

01:53:06:22 – 01:53:45:12
Speaker 4
So in the 55th chapter of Isaiah, God reminds us your thoughts are not like mine or my thoughts are not like yours. Neither are your ways like my ways. So I am above, and you are beneath. And like the rain that comes from the clouds that are some above. And the water comes down to the earth, it return of not except it what’s the earth?

01:53:45:15 – 01:53:54:28
Speaker 4
And by watering the earth it causes things to come out of the earth and birth and grow.

01:53:55:01 – 01:54:36:13
Speaker 4
And he says, so is my word that goes forth from my mouth. See, it will not return unto me. Void. So Proverbs say, as a man thinketh so, because that’s where spirit comes from. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad taught us a spirit can’t think. Thinking produces spirit the way we think produces spirit. The the Savior taught him, studied the sun and this distance from the earth, and the amount of time it takes the light to travel from the sun to the earth and return.

01:54:36:20 – 01:54:59:23
Speaker 4
And that’s eight minutes and 20s of 500 seconds. The minister said the right word, with the right spirit deposited in someone, right? Because it takes the blood the same amount of time to travel to the soul of your feet and back to your brain. Eight minutes and 20 seconds. That’s a change person. If if they receive that word properly.

01:54:59:25 – 01:55:08:19
Speaker 4
All right. Are you following and come saying why? Because see the blood that’s coursing through our body, it has to come back across the.

01:55:08:19 – 01:55:10:10
Speaker 2
Brain.

01:55:10:13 – 01:55:39:28
Speaker 4
When it comes across the brain. That’s like you and I going through registration. It registers the energy that’s in the brain. If you’re a negative person, every 500 seconds, when the blood makes that course to your body, your body has a language called body language. Your body starts taking on the form of what’s really the events that are going on in your head.

01:55:39:28 – 01:56:14:13
Speaker 4
Are you following? You can’t mask it to a wise person that has spiritual discernment. That’s why the Bible says try the spirits, test them. Don’t go by what you see. Go by what you know is there. There’s some people be done about, you know, I don’t know. You say you got a vibe after you smoke some herb and you probably do have a vibe, but it I don’t like the vibes in here, you know, but the testing, the the the the energy that’s coming through.

01:56:14:18 – 01:56:47:17
Speaker 4
Why? Because the dominating thoughts of the mind register. The cells that cross the brain and the cell conforms to the nature of the thought. And that’s why the body ends up in a position as a result of that thought. It’s a dominating thought. Now, I ain’t talking about a fleeting thought, just when a person’s mental disposition is they’re always negative.

01:56:47:23 – 01:57:19:02
Speaker 4
Their body looks like that, their face looks like that. There’s a picture of, a man all bent down and and then they show phases of him standing up, ultimately in a suit with a briefcase. But it’s showing what happens to him when the word from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, the resurrecting power of that word, starts reaching that man and is changing the thoughts.

01:57:19:02 – 01:57:44:14
Speaker 4
So Wednesday night we’re going to talk about how he talks about how do you change the thought. And as Sister Avery used to say, thought reversal it, that that’s all that needs to happen to change everything else around us. So I close with this. If a man is as he thinks in his heart, so is he. Then if he thinks like God, then he becomes like God.

01:57:44:21 – 01:57:45:27
Speaker 4
Salaam alaikum.

01:57:45:29 – 01:57:51:06
Speaker 2
My.

01:57:51:08 – 01:58:18:20
Speaker 4

Thank you brother, thank you. God bless you. If you are for your first, second, third or fourth time, we always, extending the invitation from the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan to invite you to become part of his family here.

01:58:18:23 – 01:58:43:11
Speaker 4
You can do it right here in the city of Philadelphia, and become a part of this powerful force. and the people that are caught up in this powerful force, that’s what this teach. If knowledge is a force and every attribute of God the minister teaches us is a force. So when you learn, it forces you to do something about what you learn.

01:58:43:14 – 01:59:09:05
Speaker 4
And if we’re to make better change, it has to happen from within. It won’t come through a bill. It won’t come from the white House. It won’t come from Harrisburg. It’s got to come from here. Right. So we invite you to join us in the we call it the work of self-improvement. because that everything else that needs to improve out here, the basis of it is us, right?

01:59:09:08 – 01:59:32:16

Come on up. we would like to shake your hand. and on behalf of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, we’re just his helpers here in Philadelphia.
