INSIDE Part V WE continue, from last week, the analysis of E Z E K I E L ' S WHEEL. In Ezekiel, Chap. 1:25, the prophet Ezekiel described winged creatures that he saw. DO NOT be foolish enough to think that these creatures that Ezekiel describes and which he refers to as iiving creatures,' have feathery wings. They did not have feathery wings that they let down. IN this vision of THE WHEEL, or plane, this plane is built so unlike the other planes that we could call it a mystery WHEEL to what we had heretofore known! E Z E K I E L , Chap. 1:26, "And above the firmament that was over their heads was a likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it." IN Ezekiel's Vision, 'the Voice that he heard coming from the firmament that was over their head' this really is referring to the future of the Work of the Plane's Master. The Voice is the Voice of the Master of the Plane. AND the Voice is described as being above the Plane. If the Voice is heard ABOVE the Plane then what was the Voice in, or on? Was this Voice on another plane or on another WHEEL? IN verse 26 (Ezekiel, Chap. 1:26, Bible) Ezekiel describes seeing something above THE WHEEL, (Plane) in his vision — something, a throne, as having the appearance of a sapphire stone. And upon this stone that was the likeness of a throne, was the likeness as the appearance of a man above it. Ezekiel, Chap. 1:27, "And I saw

the color of amber as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about it." Ezekiel, Chap. 1:28, "As the appearance of the bow (rainbow) that is in the cloud in the day of rain..." As Ezekiel says, with the appearance of a man with all of this science on him and the dividing of him — an upper and a lower part of him, he said, "It was as it were the appearance of fire..." from the first description of THE WHEEL. It teaches the reader that THE WHEEL is Designed for war purposes. THE WHEEL is one of the most mysterious WHEELS that the world has ever dreamed of, in the

way of military science. I say military science. This is exactly what THE WHEEL IS. It is a WHEEL that is made to do military work. BY what Ezekiel said now, about the appearance of it, there is no doubt about the interpretation of this WHEEL... that it is military built, for war purposes, and that THE WHEEL is Guided Especially by the Desire of God Almighty. AS we continue to analyze verse 28, E z e k i e l d e s c r i b e s the frightfulness of THE WHEEL as the appearance of "...the likeness of the glory of the LORD." THIS brings us into Divine Spirit of God in the Making of THE WHEEL. So much proves THE WHEEL to be Divine Work, that Ezekiel, in the 28th verse, said that when he saw it, he fell upon his face...' But, Ezekiel said that he

'heard a Voice of one that spake.' NOTE how Ezekiel gives this to us, "One that spake." What One that speaks? We all speak! Ezekiel, Chap. 2:1, "AND he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee." H E R E comes to us that a Divine Mission is going into the interpretation of the Plane (WHEEL). Ezekiel said, "...He said unto me, Son of man..." THIS refers to a prophet that God speaks to. It seems as though God and the Prophet of God are both in THE WHEEL talking it over. And God Advises the Son of man (Prophet Ezekiel) to "stand upon his feet..." for in the verse above (Ezekiel, Chap 1:28) Ezekiel said that he had 'fallen upon his face.' THE Spirit of God entered into Ezekiel and set him on his feet (Ezekiel, Chap. 2:2.) This is the Mission of the Prophet of God. And the God must Make the Prophet who he has now missioned, Aware of the Protection against the enemy and the Warring Work that will be carried out, by THE WHEEL. E Z E K I E L Chap. 2:3 says that Ezekiel is sent to 'the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation..." Ezekiel, Chap. 2:3 describes them to be "impudent and stiff headed." This verse is referring to the Black People in America! But, the Black People in America must be warned whether they will hear or not. "They are a rebellious people" called 'a house' which means a nation (Ezekiel, Chap. 2:5). T H E Y must be w a r n e d regardless to what type of people they may be. They must know the truth, "...yet shall know that there has been a nronhet among them

(Ezekiel, Chap. 2:5)." THEY (the Black People in America) must be warned as all of the People of God were warned the same. They are terrible people. They are dangerous people, as the prophet is warned, (Ezekiel, Chap. 2:6) "...be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words..." They speak stout words, disgraceful words, against the truth and the truth - bearer. Ezekiel, Chap. 2:6 (continued), "...be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house (nation). IT is the Black Man in America who is described here in this scripture. This is what he is. He is like scorpions where the Messenger of God (Prophet) is. THIS is a terrible thing, but you have proof of it here. He (The Messenger) is warned that he is living with people who are like a scorpion. A scorpion will sting and he will bite. A scorpion will do both. "Be not afraid of their words." They are always planning and saying evil and anonymous things against the Messenger. THEY look like they are very dangerous but the Messenger is not to be afraid of their looks. The Messenger must speak the words of God to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear... (Ezekiel, Chap. 2:7). The Messenger is warning you, here is what God said to him. Ezekiel, Chap. 2:8 tells the Messenger not to be rebellious "like that rebellious house (people): open your mouth and eat that I give thee! (what the mouth of

the LORD give thee)." E Z E K I E L , (The Messenger) saw his mission coming to him in the roll of a book (Ezekiel, Chap. 2:9). God Missioned the Messenger (Ezekiel, Chap. 2:10) "And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe (that went along with the book)." THE MESSENGER'S MISSION here in Ezekiel, Chapters 2 and 3 is similar to the Mission Given to the Messenger in the Revelation of John which refers to the bitterness and the sweetness, the good and the bad, of his Mission. IN Ezekiel, Chap. 3:5, God Makes it Clear to the Messenger "...thou are not sent to a people cf a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel (to your own people)." NOTE, THAT IN THE DIVINE MISSION OF E Z E K I E L , E Z E K I E L IS R E F E R R E D TO AS THE SON OF MAN. NEXT WEEK, PART VI. Elijah Muhammad, Messenger of Allah, To You All.

Dangers in Voluntary A r m y By Lonnie Kashif M.S. Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, D.C. - When New York Congressman Charles B .

state as simply as possible. 1. We want freedom. We want a full and complete freedom. 2. We want justice. Equal justice under the law. We want justice applied equally to all, regardless of creed or class or color. 3. We want equality of opportunity. We want equal membership in society with the best in civilized society. 4. We want our people in America whose parents cr grandparents were descendants from slaves, to he allowed to

are

obligated to maintain and supply our needs in this separate territory for the next 2 0 to 2 5 years—until w e are able to produce and supply our own needs. Since we cannot get along with them in peace and

5. We Want freedom for all Believers of Islam now held in federal prisons. We

want freedom for all black men and

women now under death sentence in innumerable prisons in the North as well as the South We want every black man and woman to have the freedom to accept or reject being separated from the slave master's children and establish a land of their own

We know that the above plan for the solution of the black and white conflict is the best and only answer to the problem between two people. 6.

We want ah immediate end to the police brutality and

mob attacks against the so -called Negro throughout the United States. We believe that the Federal government should intercede to see that black men and women tried in white courts receive justice in accordance with the laws of the land—or allow us to build a new nation for ourselves, dedicated to justice, freedom and liberty. 7. As long as we are not allowed to establish a state or

want the government of the United States to

We want equal education—but separate schools up to

Under such schooling system we believe we will make a better nation of people. The United States government should provide, free, all nacessary text hooks and equipment, schools and college buildings. The Muslim teachers shall be left free to teach and train their people in the way of righteousness, decency and self respect. 10.

Setting This is an advertisement to the Black man to do farming collectively, which would save the Nation individual losses. Therefore, I am asking you to help finance this program collectively. This is no private thing. It is something to help put us doing something on a collective basis, as other nations are doing today, and saving the losses that often come to small farmers.
