THE BEAST
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful O John, do not be of little faith! I am the One Who is with you always! I am the Eternally Existent, over which no one rules! The Light, the Giver of Light, the Giver of Blessedness, and the Giver of Knowledge. I am Allah, and there is no other God besides Me! I have ordained on this earth, days and years — until the days and years are fulfilled! And every day I have determined for you, until the fulfillment of My Covenant, wherein is no Darkness. I will proclaim to you what will take place, and indeed I have given you this so that you might write it down. And it will certainly be deposited! The fulfillment of the days and the time of My Covenant has come, therefore bear up unto the fulfillment of the Covenant I made with you! I created you to be king over all animals — cattle and the ‘beasts of the field’ alike. I created you of upright posture. And I created you saying: “Your eyes shall be opened, knowing good and evil.” ….. You have come to a perception of great things, that they may pass through their struggle and inherit Eternal Life! ********** Blessed are you for a ‘clear understanding’ which does not waver! You are the Tree of Knowledge, the Instructor — the Beast! Are you not the one who remains of the four Beasts which I made to reign in My World? You, the fourth Beast that has come — ‘strong as iron!’ Rise up on the earth, break the gates of brass, and bruise in pieces the kingdoms of iron. Then I will in Mercy save your soul, and the souls of the Righteous — that it may be unto them for rest forever! Behold ‘the Holy Book’ — I gave her to you as a help, for you are the Head! Come, take it! Worthy are you to take the Scroll and open its seals! For you have devoted yourself to Wisdom, and searched out My Law! See this wonder that surrounds you? There is nothing hidden which will not appear, and what was unknown will be known! You alone have been enlightened by this, because you have forsaken your own ways, and have applied yourself to Mine! Upon your brow I place this diadem! You are ‘the Christ!’ I placed you, and will confirm your title and degree! Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you! Can your courage endure? Can your hands be strong? For in this Western border, from which I brought you out — that is full of them, that are full of wickedness — acknowledge My favor towards you, and My Mercy on you My Creature! ********** Shut yourself within your house, and write what you see in a Book! I will kindle a fire in you, and I will consume your filthiness out of you. Set their souls on fire, with love and holy zeal — restoring harmony and peace! This is the land which I swore to Abraham. I swore to give it to your fathers, and this land shall fall to you as your inheritance. Now therefore arise, you and all this People! Because they transgressed against Me, and have hearkened to Satan — go to them, for they are now in great misery! Be strong in mind, be pure in heart, be vigilant in helpfulness. As I was with Moses, so shall I be with you! I revealed Myself in a bush, and spoke to Moses. And I told him many wondrous things, and showed him the secrets of the time and declared to him the end of times. Then I commanded him saying: “These words you shall publish openly!” ….. Who counseled you to believe in Me your Creator? See that Satan do not deceive you, nor work his purpose upon you! Lay up in your heart the signs I have shown you, and the interpretations you have heard. Go and gather the people. But prepare for yourself many writing tablets. Prepare your provisions — you shall pass over armed before your brethren and shall help them! Only be strong and very courageous! Have not I commanded you? Do not fear the plots against you, and do not be troubled by the unbelief of those who oppose you. These words you shall publish openly — for every unbeliever shall die in his unbelief! ********** O Mankind! Do you not know that I am the God who created you? The world which I shall cause you to enter is better than the world you have lived before now. And when I created you, it was only for this purpose. Pass over here! I am Allah and no other god exists except Me! If someone exists before Me, let him appear so that We might see his light! Before the portals of the world were in place, and before the foundations of Paradise were laid, before the powers of movement were established; before the present years were reckoned — I planned these things! And before the imaginations of those who now sin were estranged, they were made through Me and not through another! This is Mine! The words of Imperishability and Truth! Do you see ‘this Shepherd’ saying to you: “This is the way, walk in it?” ….. My eye exists not in every man. Some, however are terribly distressed by all this! This is the way it is, and it was revealed to him alone, according to My Will. For all that I have said must happen. And the deceived world will be thrown into confusion! All of the deficiency which appeared in the Truth will be dissolved, and will be like that which did not come into being! ********** He is My Shepherd! And he shall fulfill all My Purpose! I have aroused him in Righteousness, and will make straight all his ways in a land of darkness! From this time forth, I make you hear new things, hidden things that you have not known. I the Lord, speak the Truth! Hearken to Me, you transgressors! My council shall stand, and I will accomplish all My purpose — it is not far off! Assemble all of you and hear! I have spoken and called him, who leads you in the way you should go. Fear not the reproach of men, and be not dismayed at their revelings! I am He that comforts you — your Maker! In Righteousness shall you be established, then shall your light break forth like the dawn, and your healing shall spring up speedily! Be glad and rejoice forever, in that which I create! ********** Behold, he who has an ear — My Witness, My Faithful One! I will give him power over the nations. And I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life. The faithful and true witness, who is able to open the Scroll and break its Seals! Behold the signet cross of the Messiah on his brow! Who is like the Beast, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand? Put in your sickles and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth! Why marvel you at this? This calls for a mind with Wisdom, bright and pure. For these words are Trustworthy and True. For the time is near to repay everyone for what he has done. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this Book!
