Greetings to you.  I am Minister Louis Farrakhan, National Representative of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, that Great Preacher of Freedom, Justice and Equality to the Black man and woman of America and the Western hemisphere, and the Aboriginal People of the Earth—The Eternal Leader of the Nation of Islam, and a Warner to the government and people of the United States of America, and the nations of the Earth.

For the last few weeks we have been dealing with the subject of “The Synagogue of Satan.”  During this critical time, when “The Old World” is going out, and “The New World” is coming in, we must be acquainted with “the ruler of the old world that’s going out,” and we must get acquainted with “The New Ruler of The World that is coming in.”  The world that is going out is a world that God gave “Divine privilege” to, to rule the people of our planet for 6,000 years.  And, the “6,000 years” of the rule of this contrary world and people is now up.  And The New Ruler is in the world:  He is The God of The New World; and He comes to make Himself known, and to “manifest Satan” so that the people of the Earth may “fall away” from Satan and get ready to prepare themselves to become a part of that which God “makes new.”

‘The Synagogue of Satan’s schemes to destroy the 1st Amendment right to ‘free speech’

In Part 22 of “The Time and What Must Be Done,” we want to focus again on that “Synagogue of Satan.”  I want to speak about “the charge of anti-Semitism,” and what that charge leads to. 

“The First Amendment” of The United States Constitution reads as follows: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”  And so, I would like to put before you the following questions: 

How does one go from engaging in “free speech” that we assume is protected by The First Amendment of The Constitution, to finding one’s self facing possibly criminal penalties?

How does such a wicked claim of “anti-Semitism” move the accused one from speaking or writing the truth, and then to “legal jeopardy”? 

What is a legal mechanism by which these “attack dogs” of The Synagogue of Satan activate “the governmental apparatus” to seek out, punish and destroy those that are labeled as an “anti-Semite” or as a “hate group”—and destroy their right to “free speech” in the process?

We want to look at the criminal effect of being labeled “anti-Semitic.”   We want to look at how these private Jewish organizations who do the labeling, like the Anti-Defamation League and The Southern Poverty Law Center, manipulate the government law enforcement agencies like the FBI and the IRS to target and harass those who are so labeled.  Then, we want to see how they work to “effect their scheming,” with the disproportionate number of members of the Jewish community working as “DAs” (or “district attorneys”) or federal and state prosecutors and judges, in the United States court system where these cases will ultimately be tried.

It begins with someone, anyone, who holds a “controversial view,” and speaks or writes about it in public.  “Controversial” means “contrary to the popular version of the truth.” 

However, instead of engaging in honest and open public dialogue and debate about the issue that the spokesperson raises, as is called for and encouraged by the United States Constitution, private interest groups start with “the labeling”“He’s a hate teacher, with a hateful message.”  And then the group he belongs to:  If they don’t repudiate the spokesperson fast enough, they also get called “a hate group that promotes intolerance.”  They don’t have to “prove it,” they just have to “say it over and over again”—and then “the drumbeats” get amplified by their brethren who control the mediaAnd if that person does not apologize “quick enough” after that, they start to pick away at his supporters.  And those who would defend that person:  If they are not strong enough to stand up to the slander, they begin to fall away and distance themselves; and some may even start repudiating and “apologizing for” their former friend and ally. 

Still, if he refuses to “bow down”:  They connect certain inflammatory terms that are intended to generate real hatred, and even retribution, against the person who is speaking these controversial points.  They start with:  “He hates!”  “He’s intolerant!” and that escalates to, “He’s threatening, and he incites hatred in others!”  And then the word “violence” gets thrown in, and then “hate crimes” are mentioned; and ultimately, you hear the words “domestic terrorism.”  This is all calculated to get the public to put so much pressure on that individual; that they, and their supporters, “relent,” “apologize” and “retreat.”

And this is why I say to my great brothers and sisters in “The Twitter Army”:  No matter what vile speech comes at you, no matter what threats are made against my life by those who hate The Truth that we are speaking, never ever “get down in the gutter,” or threaten anyone with violence, because they are building a record of what we are saying!  So, if you threaten anyone with violence, or you act like you wish to do them evil because they desire to do me evil, then one day you might hear this again in a court of law.

The Synagogue’s efforts to ‘modernize’ the government persecution of individuals and groups

If we continue to stand on our principles and exercise our “freedom of speech,” these members of “The Synagogue of Satan” then get their brethren in The Judicial Branch of government, in the IRS, and their brethren in the Congress and the Senate, and even up to the White House or the “Justice Department,” and they begin to act in a conspiratorial manner to charge, condemn, try and punish—and even kill—those who are so charged.  This government persecution of individuals and groups who speak boldly about the wrongs in American society was started under J. Edgar Hoover’s “F.B.I. Counterintelligence Program” [“COINTELPRO”]. 

Although that Program was exposed, and it was said that certain “controls” were ultimately put on the activity of the F.B.I.; but yet, those wicked policies still continue even up to this very moment—of course The Synagogue of Satan stepped in to re-establish the worst of Hoover’s illegal operations.  In August of 1999, under the administration of President Bill Clinton, federal surveillance of those labeled “hate groups” was restricted to those who “committed,” or were “linked to,” actual crimes. According to published reports, his Attorney General Janet Reno said: “It is important that you not focus on a group unless you have a reasonable indication that they are engaged in criminal conduct.” But then 29 Jewish leaders led by the Anti-Defamation League’s Abraham Foxman went to the Justice Department, and told them “this is too timid an approach.” It was reported that Foxman stated: “We want better surveillance and infiltration if necessary…”—the concern, Mr. Foxman said, was modernizing the regulations, so federal authorities “can deal not only with getting the man, but with preventing the crime.” 

So now, they have their way: A position was created inside the Justice Dept. which they say is to monitor and combat anti-Semitism. [Based upon The Global Anti-Semitism Review Act of 2004], a few days ago Secretary of State John Kerry appointed a man named Ira Forman as the new “Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism.”   

What will happen with these positions, except to coordinate “the government surveillance and infiltration” of those who have been labeled “anti-Semitic”?  There are real anti-Semites in this country that hate the Jewish people, and there is nothing wrong with monitoring a real “anti-Semitic hate group.”  But when you have that intention for me and The Nation of Islam, then we have to charge you; and challenge you to prove your claim

You have a long history of lying on The Nation of Islam!  And it is time that we “throw down the gauntlet” now, and make you come before the American people and the world, and prove your charge!  And if you cannot, and you cannot, then you’re going to have to pay for all these years that you have poisoned the minds of the American people; destroyed progress of tens of hundreds and thousands of people—and you thought you “got away with it”! 

Not today...

In “The Preface” of The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, Volume 2, The Historical Research Department provides us with historical proof on how Jews at the highest organizational levels have always labeled The Nation of Islam as “anti-Semitic.”  For example, they write that in 1942, a secret Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith file titled “Temple of Islam Infiltration” states:  “A Negro employed by us—“us” here is The Anti-Defamation League—“proved ‘quite instrumental’ in a F.B.I. raid on the Chicago mosque resulting in 82 arrests.”  So, this has been going on a long time.

And what did you mean, Mr. Abraham Foxman, when you said, “Louis Farrakhan is the only African-American leader”?  Your words exactly, sir, as they appear in a Haaretz news article published in April 2013:  “The last time an African-American leader stood up to anti-Semitism was Martin Luther King Jr., who said it’s a sin. The only leadership that now exists in that community—the “African American community”—“is Louis Farrakhan.  Farrakhan can assemble 20,000 people several times a year, and he flaunts his anti-Semitism.  What’s worse, they deny it exists, so there’s no one to talk to.” 

I interpret that as meaning “The Nation of Islam and Louis Farrakhan are the only ones we don’t control”; I interpret that to mean that “Louis Farrakhan and The Nation of Islam” may very well be “The Last Man Standing” in the way of your successful capture of Black leaders, your successful capture of Black professionals and Black businessmen, your capture of Black artists, and your capture of heads of state and government that bow to your commands!  Then if we are “The Last Man Standing,” then you are calling on all of your forces to concentrate their attention on “Louis Farrakhan” and “The Nation of Islam.”

Well, “concentrate” with everything you’ve got, because The God that we serve will answer effectively and efficiently, and will ultimately destroy your “power.” 

‘A party from among’ The Synagogue of Satan that ‘designs to ruin’ God’s Warner among us

Look at what’s written in the Holy Qur’an, Surah 4 Al-Nisa (“The Women”), verses 111-112:  “And whoever commits a sin, commits it only against himself.  And Allah is ever Knowing, Wise.  And whoever commits a fault or a sin, then accuses of it one innocent, he indeed takes upon himself the burden of a calumny and a manifest sin.” 

Now, what is a “calumny”?  A “calumny” is “the making of a false and defamatory statement in order to damage someone’s reputation.”  It is “slander,” it is “character assassination,” and it is “vilification.”

To The Anti-Defamation League, The Southern Poverty Law Center, a.k.a. “The Synagogue of Satan”:  You are “the sinner”!  You want to put your evil on an innocent man; you say I am “the hater”—you’re wrong!  We can prove that you are “the hater,” and you’ve been the hater of us ever since you’ve been on our planet!  You are “the liar”; you are the one that is “creating violence and hatred”—it is you!  You manipulate your media brethren, turning them into “tools” of your wicked ideas and policies.  Well now “your day” has come!  In the Holy Qur’an, Surah 104 is called Al-Humazah (“The Slanderer”):  “Woe to every slanderer, defamer!  Who amasses wealth and counts it—He thinks that his wealth will make him abide.  Nay, he will certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster; And what will make thee realize what the crushing disaster is?  It is the Fire kindled by Allah, Which rises over the hearts. Surely it is closed in on them, In extended columns.” 

What will make thee know what “the great and utter destruction” is”?  It is “The Fire,” in the heart of the slanderer; that leads that slanderer to The Fire of Hell.

***

In verse 113 of Surah 4, The Holy Qur’an says:  “And were it not for Allah’s grace on thee and His mercy, a party of them had certainly designed to ruin thee. And they ruin only themselves, and they cannot harm thee in any way. And Allah has revealed to thee the Book and the Wisdom, and taught thee what thou knewest not, and Allah’s grace on thee is very great.” 

I rely on The Wisdom of that scripture, because as I said last week:  This “Synagogue of Satan” is comprised not only of members of the “Jewish community,” but you have Gentiles, you have Blacks, you have Asians—Oh!  Your “Synagogue” is big!  And a lot of the people that are members of “The Synagogue” are unwitting pawns in The Wicked Game of this Satanic group. 

Remember these words of The Qur’an:  “a party”—and that’s you, “Synagogue”—from among them “certainly designed to ruin thee.”  “Thee” here means Muhammad; “thee,” here, means “what he represents.”  And if you don’t think that I am a part of “Muhammad,” then watch and see.  Your evil is designed to ruin me, and to ruin The Nation of Islam.  But you ruin only yourself!  So keep on planning and watch what happens to you, and what you represent.

A ‘Who is Anti-Semitic?’ roll call

Let us take a look at all the Black leaders that have been charged with “anti-Semitic behavior”—because they dared to utter a word of criticism against “Jewish misbehavior and mislabeling.”   Let’s take a look at “Who is anti-Semitic?”—I bet you won’t even believe thisBooker T. Washington, the founder of Tuskegee University; W.E.B. DuBois; Marcus Mosiah Garvey; and, yes:  The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.—the man that said, “anti-Semitism is a sin,” yet you all referred to him, at one point, as an “anti-Semite”!  Malcolm X, The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, President Nelson Mandela, Bishop Desmond Tutu, Julian Bond; Kwame Ture, formerly known as “Stokely Carmichael”; Andrew Young; Kweisi Mfume, former member of Congress, and former leader of the N.A.A.C.P.; The Reverends Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Joseph Lowery; The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee called “SNCC”; The Black Panthers; The Universal Negro Improvement Association, which was Mr. Garvey’s movement; and, The Nation of Islam

But it doesn’t stop there!  They accused Mahatma Gandhi [a leader for India’s independence], of being an “anti-Semite”!  Also:  Historians John Hope Franklin and J.A. Rogers; Writers James Baldwin, Richard Wright, Julius Lester and Alice Walker; and Entertainers Michael Jackson, Spike Lee, Ice Cube, Arsenio Hall, Muhammad Ali, Public Enemy, Oprah Winfrey—this is just a few!  Look at the “great company” that Louis Farrakhan is in …

You mean everybody is a “hater of the Jewish people”?  Stop It! 

Now let’s “call the roll” of those White people that you have called “anti-Semitic”—beginning with U.S. presidents:  President Harry Truman, President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, President Richard M. Nixon, President Jimmy Carter, President Gerald Ford, President George H. W. Bush—and our current president, Barack Obama.  Also, a listing of White leaders, historians, inventors, writers, clergymen, philosophers, etc.:  H. L. Mencken, George Bernard Shaw, Henry Adams, H.G. Wells, Edgar Degas, T.S. Eliot, Immanuel Kant, Tacitus, Philostratus, Cicero, Shakespeare, Voltaire, Hitler, Edward VIII, Aleksander Pushkin, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Richard Wagner, Bobby Fischer, and The Reverend Billy Graham.

These “members of The Synagogue of Satan” have always known that a Day of Reckoning was coming; and so over time, they put themselves in positions of power in every nation of the Western hemisphere.  This was done to “monitor The Awakening” of The Gentiles—the masses of so-called heathens, savages and goyim; as well as the masses of Blacks.  So anyone that “rises” and “criticizes”:  They put fear in them by charging them with being “anti-Semitic.”  Even if they knew that what we were saying is the truth, most would be afraid and would not stand up under “the heat of Jewish power.” 

Well, today we are calling you out, and asking you to use your inordinate power, because The God that we represent wants to crush you and your “power.”  He’s here to bring in a Brand New World—and He’s chosen the despised and the rejected, unloved and unwanted Black man and woman of America to be “The Cornerstone” of a Brand New Reality.

The ‘trick’ of ‘anti-Semitic labeling’ confirmed

During an August 14, 2002 interview on her show Democracy Now! (democracynow.org), host and executive producer Amy Goodman interviewed former Israeli Minister Shulamit Aloni.  Pay attention to Miss Goodman’s words introducing her guest:  “Yours is a voice of criticism we don’t often hear in the United States. Often when there is dissent expressed in the United States against policies of the Israeli government, people here are called ‘anti-Semitic.’ What is your response to that as an Israeli Jew?”  And Minister Shulamit Aloni answered:  Well, it’s a trick, we always use it. When from Europe somebody is criticizing Israel, then we bring up the Holocaust. When in this country people are criticizing Israel, then they are anti-Semitic. And the organization is strong, and has a lot of money, and the ties between Israel and the American Jewish establishment are very strong and they are strong in this country, as you know. And they have power, which is OK.  They are talented people, and they have power and money, and the media and other things; and their attitude is ‘Israel my country, right or wrong,’ identification—and they are not ready to hear criticism. And it’s very easy to blame people who criticize certain acts of the Israeli government as ‘anti-Semitic,’ and to bring up the Holocaust, and the suffering of the Jewish people, and that is [to] justify everything we do to the Palestinians.”

This “anti-Semitic labeling” is a trick that they use!  But look at how many people have been destroyed on account of such a trick! 

Where did you learn such tricks?  Did you not learn this from your Father Yakub, who taught you a System of Tricks and Lies?  Look at how easy it is for you to lie, and put your wickedness on innocent persons!  Well, what is the meaning of a “trick”?  A “trick” is “a cunning, or skillful, act or scheme intended to deceive or outwit someone”; “a mischievous practical joke”; “a skillful act performed for entertainment or amusement”; “an illusion”; “a clever or particular way of doing something.” 

It’s really “amusing” to Satan when he can tell a lie, and we operate on that lie, and act in a manner that we would never act if we had only known The Truth.  They are entertained by playing tricks on unsuspecting, ignorant people.  And this is why it is an imperative that The Synagogue of Satan must be called out, and “Satan” and his “Synagogue” must be made known.

Calls for ‘intelligent dialogue’ remain unanswered, the tricks of ‘attack dogs’ flourish

Well, the Jews have been saying for a long time that they have been “trying” to get a dialogue with me …  And we, The Nation of Islam, have been trying for 30 years to have an intelligent dialogue with members of the Jewish community!  And while we have had at least four or five wonderful meetings, “frank discussions,” I wondered to myself if they thought that because “we got along so well” when we spoke with each other, that I should stop saying what I say because we had lunch together, or we spoke together? 

Are you that blind, deaf, dumb and ignorant, that you would think that a “little luncheon with me” would stop me from speaking The Truth, because we are now talking?  A real, serious, dialogue has never happened between us!  And unfortunately now it’s “too late”:  It’s time, now, for The Synagogue of Satan to “either put up, or shut up”—and if you can’t “put up,” then you’re going to have to “put out,” because we intend to bring you before those who can judge it, even though they’re your own “brothers”! 

But when one considers “being judged in the court of public opinion,” remember:  It is written in the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 8, about “the stone of stumbling,” that if you fall on “him”/“that one,” you’ll be “broken into pieces”; while the Book of Matthew, Chapter 21, describes your demise with these words:  “But if he falls on you, he will grind you into powder…”—because the “He” that is falling on you is not “I”!  It is The Two Who back me, Who have come to end your world.

***

Well, this man in Congress, Mr. Peter King:  He is another “attack dog” of The Synagogue of Satan, always wishing to put an “ugly face” on the religion of Islam. 

When our brothers in Washington, D.C. cleaned up a housing project, marching unarmed into a veritable drug/gang war at the Kenilworth-Parkside and Mayfair Mansions housing projects in 1988, a remarkable thing happened:  “Peace” and “Quiet.”  This group of brothers was called “The Dopebusters”; and they closed open-air drug markets and brought peace to that neighborhood.  It was a condition that had never been seen in that area since those projects were built.  The officials of America’s capital city were so shocked at this, that the police chief, who had been previously sharply critical of “the Muslim anti-drug patrols,” completely changed his mind and stated publicly that his department would work with The Nation of Islam. 

And the residents were ecstaticWithin the months after our arrival, both drugs and the drug wars vanished; city bus routes that had been re-routed away from the daily battles were reinstated.  And with the improved security, businesses began to open; after-school activities for the neighborhood youth were begun; educational and cultural programs began; The Sisters were then able to set up daycare and job training centers; and the blinding stadium lights that generated daylight 24-hours a day were retired, and grass began to grow in the center courtyard.  And as the word spread of the tremendous success of the N.O.I., residents of “government ghettoes” around America started to request that The Dopebusters come into their neighborhoods! 

It was then that The Jews went to work:  They went into Congress with an assortment of outrageous and unsubstantiated charges against “The Nation of Islam,” and demanded that Congress cut off the money for The Dopebuster contracts. And unfortunately, those contracts were ended.  Their language is wicked and unforgivable; here is what is in the Official United States Congressional Record“... leader, Louis Farrakhan, is a racist and hate-monger…”I laugh at this …  Can you imagine the nerve they have to call somebody a “racist”?  See, that’s “the calumny”—that’s the wickedness of you who call us what you are!  We’ve been living among you for 450 years:  Where’s the “hate” coming from?  It is coming from you!  “It was Louis Farrakhan who denounced Jewry as a gutter religion, who said that Hitler was a very great man, who said he would grind Jews and break them into little bits, and who denounced the Pope as a no-good cracker.”

That’s not my language!  You’re a liar again!  You just can’t help yourself!  As Jesus discovered:  You are a Liar, and The Father of Lies!  And there is no “Truth” in you!  So today:  The Righteous have to stand up in America, and call it like it is!

‘A Warning’ to America, A ‘Warning’ to God’s People

In the New Living Translation of the Bible, please study what some of the prophets have said of the Israelite people, both in the Book of Jeremiah, Chapters 5 and 7.  

In Chapter 7, under the section called “Jeremiah Speaks at the Temple” it states, in part:  “…the God of Israel, says: ‘Even now, if you quit your evil ways, I will let you stay in your own land. But don’t be fooled by those who promise you safety simply because the Lord’s Temple is here. They chant, “The Lord’s Temple is here! The Lord’s Temple is here!” But I will be merciful only if you stop your evil thoughts and deeds and start treating each other with justice; only if you stop exploiting foreigners, orphans, and widows; only if you stop your murdering; and only if you stop harming yourselves by worshiping idols. Then I will let you stay in this land that I gave to your ancestors to keep forever.’ …”  And in Chapter 5, under the section called “A Warning for God’s People,” the scripture teaches:  “…[But] my people have stubborn and rebellious hearts.  They have turned away and abandoned me.  They do not say from the heart, ‘Let us live in awe of the Lord our God …”—so here we are …  Lastly:  “… They continually set traps to catch people.  Like a cage filled with birds, their homes are filled with evil plots.  And now they are great and rich.  … They refuse to provide justice to orphans and deny the rights of the poor.  Should I not punish them for this?” says the Lord.  Should I not avenge myself against such a nation?”

These are the words of The Prophets to you, the Jewish people!  Would you not want to be saved?  The Prophets Haggai and Zechariah talked similarly to you! (Ezra 5:1)  Prophet Ezekiel [and Prophets Jeremiah, Solomon, David, Esther (Ch. 4:14); and Isaiah (Ch. 58:1)]:  They talked this way to you!  Are they all “anti-Semites”—or are they your best friends, because they come to “check” your fall, and to bring you back to sanity?! 

Hmm …  Well, why is it that anybody that tries to reform you, correct you and guide you is an “anti-Semite”?  That’s how spiritually blind, deaf and dumb you are; arrogant and boastful—that “no one” is able to correct you!  I met with rabbis, and they told me to my face: “It is not for you to correct us,” they said.  “We do that for ourselves!”  In other words, you were saying to me:  “With your Black face, coming among slaves that I brought into slavery through the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade:   You’re not in any position to correct us!” 

“Wrong,” Mr. Foxman.  “Wrong,” Mr. Potok.  “Wrong,” Synagogue of Satan.  I have more Authority to correct you, than you have to correct yourself.  And soon you will come to know it. 

***

In the Book of Ezekiel, in the 18th Chapter, verse 23, study these Words of Allah (God):  “Do you think that I like to see wicked people die? says the Sovereign Lord. Of course not!  I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live.”  God does not “delight” in killing The Wicked!  He “delights” in your and my listening to “the voice of correction,” and saving ourselves and families!  My heart is the same as that of God:  I don’t wish to see these calamities coming on America!  But I know they are going to increase in severity, because you are exceedingly angry at what we are saying!  The question now is:  “What Are You Going To Do About It?” 

You are trying to bring us before your courts…  “Who” wants us?  Is this what has come out of the Justice Department from the “Attorney General”, or the “President of the United States”—or some of you that surround the Attorney General, and surround the President?  Remember those depictions of you in the scripture of the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 13, verse 22, of the “hyenas,” “jackals”—attack dogsAre they encouraging you to harm me, and The Nation of Islam? 

Some lawyers around us feel that what is coming against The Nation could not have come against us unless it came out of the Justice Department of the United States of America, possibly backed by the President himself!  Oh, my brothers!  My brothers …  I am a Faithful Warner to you, but now your ears can’t take “The Warning” anymore.  “What shall be done with Farrakhan?” Are you amassing my scared-to-death Black brothers and sisters to “cry out against me” because of the inordinate amount of pressure that you are putting on them now to denounce me, as you did with my brother Congressman [John] Conyers? 

All of you that are willing to denounce me to find “favor” with your Open Enemies:  You are denouncing yourself in the process, and losing favor with God.

And so my dear brothers and sisters:  When Moses was told by The Great God Jehovah to go to Pharaoh and tell him to Let His People Go, Pharaoh made it even harder on The Children of Israel.  But God sent down plague after plague after plague; and The Last Plague was “Death” itself.  He forced Pharaoh to let His People go.  Please study the Book of Romans, Chapter 9; in verses 17-18, the scriptures teaches that God hardened Pharaoh’s heart, that He might destroy Pharaoh; the scripture [teaches] God raised up Egypt, and made Egypt powerful among the nations because He wanted to make Himself known that He was in the world—so He made Egypt rich and powerful, that He, and He alone, could take her down, that He might be made known!

America:  God is in the world today, and He has made you “great” for His Purpose.   “God” is not hardening your heart, you’re doing that to yourself:  By sticking your finger in your ears, so that you can’t hear a “Word”—and look around you at the storm clouds gathering!  The severity of nature coming against you!  If you could open your eyes, and listen, and see, then your heart may change; and you might save yourself, and provide a future for America, and America’s children.  But your heart is hardening, now…And in “the hardness of your heart”:  You’re going to do that which will bring down on you The Full Wrath of Almighty God.

In my last week’s lecture we talked about “the colt” and “the ass” that were “tied”; and Jesus told his Disciples:  “Go and untie them; and if anyone says anything to you, tell them that The Master has come, and has need of them.”  “The ass” here represents “the unlearned masses of our people”; and “the young colt, un-castrated” is “the young brothers in college.”  God is after you, college students!  To put you in courses of study that will make you a nation-builder, and a world-builder.  God is after the unlearned masses!  To make out of us a great nation.  The Master has indeed come!  And has need of us as “The Foundational Stone of a Brand New World.”

A “Word of Warning” to The Members of The Nation of Islam, and to Black people in general:  The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, “Study ‘The Blessings and The Cursings” that came to Israel when she obeyed; and “the cursings” that came when she disobeyed.”  Elijah Muhammad wants us to study that history, because now it is on us!  If we are going to “obey God,” He will bless us!  But if we rebel against Him, the same punishments that are coming to our Open Enemy will be visited upon us.  “The ball is in your court”—it’s “The Time,” now, “and What Must Be Done.”  “Surely man is in loss,” except those who will listen to The Word, believe in The Word, and act on that Word; and then enjoin one another to truth, and enjoin one another to patience:  These are “The Blessed Ones”!  I pray that in these lectures, you are finding that which you find beneficial to yourself and your children, and your families.

And to those beloved Twitter Followers, who are all over the world:  Take this message, “Tweet” it again and again!  Some of you are “Tweeting” so hard, they’re putting you in “Twitter Prison”—well, that’s only a sign that some of us may be cast into prison!  But the end is victory for the Righteous!

You are The Righteous!  You are The Best!  And soon, you will see:  You are The Powerful, because God is with you!
