CHAPTER LV.
1. Of the self-Gods of Uropa, and North and South Guatama, little need be said. Theyestablished weak heavenly kingdoms and succeeded in inciting mortals to war, but to nogreat destruction. Their heavenly kingdoms were for the most part failures; their throneswere poor and dilapidated almost from the start.
2. Of these great divisions of the earth mortals were too scattered and few to be profitablefor false Gods. In Guatama they had not forgotten the lessons of I'tura, the false God whohad ruined their forefathers. They were wary, and for the most part preserved theirallegiance to the Great Spirit.
3. This much, then, of evil; now know ye of the good and faithful, and of the changes ofearth and heaven.
4. By the pressure of ji'ay, Craoshivi had descended near the earth, and some placesbordered upon it. Darkness had overspread the land of the earth in some regions forseven hundred years, so that the sun shone not, save as a red ball of fire. And nebulafell in many places to a depth of three lengths, so that even the places of the great citiesof the earth, which had been destroyed, were covered up, and it was like a new country.
5. The which was beneficial to Jehovih's angels, in assisting them to deliver hosts of thechaotic spirits, whose mortal part fell in dread war. For such was the labor of the true Godin Craoshivi, Son of Jehovih, and of his hosts of upraised angels. To gather in from everyquarter of earth and her heavens the fallen victims of the self-Gods; to restore them toreason and to happier and holier scenes; and to teach them righteousness and good works.
6. Jehovih had said to God, His Son: Because one man can not lift up the whole world heshall not grieve, nor cease doing what he can. For his glory lieth in exerting himself to thefull.
7. Because the self-Gods have come against thee, they are against Me also; because theyhave espoused to be Creators, and thus proclaimed themselves for their own glory, theyshall have their fill. Before these times, the false Gods were content to proclaim their ownnames; but lo and behold, they have made the Lord God as the Creator, and set him up asa man, on a throne, to worship him!
8. And Te-in, and Sudga, and Osiris, too! All of woman born, and knowing My breathupon them. Sufficient is it for thee, My Son, to gather in the afflicted and distressed, andrestore them and deliver them in light and truth. Keep thou thy schools and colleges inheaven; and thy nurseries and hospitals, and factories, and thy fleets of swift-flyingotevans and airavagnas. And send thou thy faithful volunteers, and make the afflicted torejoice and hold up their heads in great joy.
9. But to them that will not hear; and to them that curse thee and Me, seeking to destroyMe for their own glory, be thou silent. My hand is upon them. My ji'ay'an showercovereth earth and heaven. In their own game shall they cast themselves in darkness anddestruction.
10. And all the while the self-Gods were at their evil deeds, the Faithists, Jehovih'sangels, worshippers of the Ever Present, All Person, coursed the heavens along in theirfire-ships, calling in the persecuted children of Jehovih. Calling loud and cheerfullythrough the heavens of the evil Gods, and over the kingdoms of the earth; calling in thesewords:
11. Come! Come! The Father's kingdom is free! Come! Come! In peace and quietnessthou shalt be thine own master! Behold, the Father's places rise higher and higher! Notdownward, to the lower kingdoms, nor to the earth, nor to re-incarnation, the inventedtale of drujas; but upward to wisdom, goodness, love and happiness.
12. Because ye have put away the All Person, ye have fallen in the mire; ye have closedyour eyes to yonder higher heaven. Come, O ye that are in bondage! Cut loose from all! Fly to Him Who brought ye forth to life! Disown the world! And self! And all the Godsand Saviors! Lords and kings! Be Jehovih's! Sworn to peace and love! To good works andrighteousness!
13. Come! Come! Our otevans are free! Our airavagnas full of comfort. O Come and beour loves! Be fellows, one with Jehovih.
14. And they gathered in millions and thousands of millions! For hundreds and hundredsof years they labored in the distracted regions of hada; toiled and toiled till wearied andprostrate, tens of thousands of times; then rested awhile, invigorated for more energeticwork.
15. But not alone nor unseen, these toiling millions, hundreds of millions of Jehovih'sangels, faithful Sons and Daughters. For the labor built up their own spirits to be asvery Gods and Goddesses in noble endurance. Which was written in their fair faces,so the high-raised messengers of far-off heavens, traveling past, beheld Jehovih's soulin them. And so bore the news to other worlds of the darkness of the earth andher evil Gods, and of the faithful, struggling hosts of Jehovih in their up-hill work.
16. And now the earth and her heavens crossed the boundaries of the ji'ay'an forests, androlled slowly towards the homes and dominions of other etherean Gods.
END OF THE BOOK OF WARS AGAINST JEHOVIH.
Plate 19. THE EARTH IN KAS'KAK.
Jehovih said: That My Gods might learn to master the elements of Myheavens, I brought the earth into the etherean Forest of Kas'Kak. And loand behold, angels and mortals fell in the darkness. And Anuhasajestablished the names Lord God and De'yus (Dyaus) (Deity) as worshipfulon the earth. Before that time, man worshipped Me under the term GreatSpirit. And man built the great pyramid as a monument of his own darkness.
