The ancient society had 12 countries spread over
the whole earth. Each country was divided into 6
clans; each clan was further divided into 100
districts, and each district had 10 towns. Each town was led
by 2 Judges and there were 144,000 Judges in total, as we
have already said.
2. Each Judge was given 1,000 people to lead and the
population became 144,000,000. The 24 Elders then said to
all the people, "Multiply and fill the earth. You will live for
7,000 years. Every person will replace himself or herself
before passing."
That is, each married couple will have two children.
3. Here's where it becomes difficult for us Black people to
accept who we really are. We say, "How can a person live
for 7,000 years? After all, doesn't yt teach us that the whole
creation is barely 6,000 years old?" (Rather, that's half of yt
saying that, the half calling themselves creationists. The
other half, when you think about it, say the same thing in
different words. They say there were only apes before;modern people, who they call homo sapiens, are only some
thousands of years old. Same story, same lie.)
4. But going back to the question of lifespan; doesn't it say
in ancient writings that man's lifespan was much longer than
it is today, lasting about 1,000 years? If it was 1,000 years
6,000 years ago, and declined, couldn't it have decreased
from a much longer span?
5. Our teachers say the normal lifespan of a Black person is
7,000 years. They give a reason why that is so. We'll explain
the reasons at another time. After the Gods said multiply
and fill the earth, every person found his or her soul mate,
got married and had 2 children.
After 1,000 years the population had doubled.
6. The children grew up, became mature and responsible
adults, got married and had two children each, just like their
parents.
7. They had a restriction on population growth, restricting
each couple to only two children. A justly organized society
must have population control. That is the only way for longlived
people to avoid over-population.
8. You'll notice I said a justly organized society. Modern
society is not justly organized. Its organization favors the light
races, so population control is a negative word. More than
that, it's an evil concept in the hands of white people,
designed to try and exterminate the Black population. The
ancients called it population stabilization, and it's the polar
opposite of population control as it is practiced today. The
first is to foster a comfortable life, and the latter is used to
fuel genocide.
9. But to continue. After the children had their children, the
population tripled. The grandchildren grew up and gave
birth to the 4th generation. The 4th generation gave birth to
the 5th.
10. The 5th gave birth to the 6th.
CHAPTER 9 73
The 6th gave birth to the 7th, and the total population,
starting with the first generation of 144,000,000, was now
7 x 144,000,000, or 1,008,000,000 (1b8m).
Six thousand years had passed since the beginning.
11. This became the fixed and stable population of the
Nation because when the next generation of 144,000,000
was born, the first generation passed away, having lived
7,000 years.
12. That is how our society began, and this part of our
history is called, "How God became 1 billion eight million
people."
13. These are the same 1B8M individual Black people alive
today. That's you and me. We are at the end of a cycle
called the cycle of yt. We are soon to begin a new cycle
where the society returns to its original organization under
the leadership of the 24 Kings and Queens.
14. Just wanted to thank you for sharing this wealth
of knowledge. It's most appreciated.
Also, with regard to population control during our lost
culture, what are your views,if any, on the idea that
some nubians have today with having as many children
as possible, as opposed to limiting to let's say two
children per couple as has been advocated by people
such as Dr.Frances Cress-Welsing. Many argue that
limiting the number of children will only further weaken
us by reducing our overall numbers in our battle aqainst
white supremacy and that therefore we should
procreate as much as possible.(strength in numbers, so
to speak)
15. To limit Black couples to two children per family would
not be a good idea at this time. We Black people are living
outside of our natural way of life, and have been for 6,000
years. To impose such a drastic measure of population control on ourselves now would play right into the hands of
yt, who would love nothing more than to see our extinction.
16. On the other hand, some people may say such a
measure would be fitting for a few people, especially those
who live continuously in dire circumstances of need. But it
would perhaps be wiser to improve our individual economic
circumstances as best we can, rather than to stay in
poverty and have fewer children.
17. Nonetheless, the total number of Black people is steadily
increasing all over the world. It's approaching its natural
maximum of 1 billion eight million. When this total is
reached, it will fulfill one of the two requirements for bringing
this cycle of time to an end.
18. i know i'm a little late in this , but a while back
you talked about scarification and how it was a symbol
of our self-hate. i may not be quoting you correctly
but anyway. from the outside looking in, i look at the
scars and i like their appearance but at the same time
i am not the one suffering to recieve them so i
understand my position in that, but at the same time i
was watching a documentary and it was showing
scarification of young children, boys, around the ages
of 2-4 i think. annyway one of the people interviewed
spoke about how it brings the children into reality in
the sense that it is not always happy. this is useful
today throughout the diaspra, but i can see the
relation to colonizers and missionaries. is this just a
perversion to a lost but correctly order rite of
passage? i wanted to point out where i cited you calling
god him. how does that relate to ancient africa? are
you calling god a man? i don't see how that concepts
relates to our ancestors. does your spiritual science
relate a patriarch?
CHAPTER 9 75
19. I'm afraid you did misquote me. Scarification was never
a symbol of self-hate. On the contrary, it was out of self-love
and love of each other that our people resorted to such an
extreme measure. They knew that the slavers desired the
most beautiful of our people in order to get the highest
prices in the slave market. So they scarred themselves to
make themselves ugly. This enabled them to stay with their
beloved. Obviously to go to such an extreme is a result of
self-love and the desire to survive among one's own
beloved. Later on, when slavery was over, this custom
remained even though the real reasons had long been
forgotten, because customs, especially old ones, are
treated with much reverence. The custodians of customs in
each tribe then devised different reasons in order to
continue them, and in some places, the customs were
modified and made more palatable. So today there are as
many different reasons for it as there are tribes.
20. God is both "him" and "her". God is both the Black man
and woman. The use of the word "he" is a fault of the English
language. You'll agree that it's cumbersome and distracting
to keep saying he/she, so I use he, following convention.
When you say, "I don't see how that concept relates to our
ancestors", I'm afraid you're imposing a foreign concept on
our ancestors. The arch-deceivers designed their language
specifically for this purpose of confusion, so you're playing
right into their hands. This foul language has nothing
whatsoever to do with our people. In our language there is
only one word for both him and her. The word is "o". It refers
to God as he/she is before separating to be born as a Black
baby boy or baby girl. But the word also refers to both male
and female, because each one is God.
21. first off: lets not belittle each other with he said
she said. everything i presented was completely hypothetical in nature. i was not trying to impose any
foriegn concept(s) on our ancestors. i was more or less
checking to see where your head was at. your decision
to use him for god is the same one a brother of mine
uses.
22. i haven't been presented with the idea of the 25-
35,000 year rein(s). from my research i have found
that their is no profound reason for while matriarchs
are more common in the ancient world than present and
that is solely because the child passes through the
mothers womb thus so will the lineage. the ancestors
used a common sense approach. the ancient idea of
lineage is not one of power but one of order and
balance. the common accepted concepts of either style
of lineage are more than often euro in nature.
23. finally i wanted to admitt that i've never been
presented with your idea on the 24 elders. i'm familiar
with the 36 neters of kmt.
24. Any appearance that I'm trying to belittle is just that: an
appearance. It would be foolish of me to belittle any Black
person while trying to remind other Black people how great
they are.
25. On the question of patriarchies, our society indeed did
have patriarchies and matriarchies. Each one lasted for
25,000 years, after which the entire society reversed all its
customs and adopted the other system. This is because our
system of government is set up in such a way that the 24
Elders alternate when they rotate the leadership. In other
words, the rule of each King, which lasts for 25,000 years, is
immediately followed by that of a Queen, for the same
length of time. So the people live under a patriarchy for
25,000 to 35,000 years, after which they live under a
matriarchy for the same length of time, because 12 of the
Elders are women and 12 are men.
I hope I've made it clearer.
CHAPTER 9 77
26. blkroots, I know that you are trying to answer
everyone's question as asap therefore, I wait patiently
on a reply about Black holes. Just a reminder. Peace!
27. Your question is still top priority. The topic of black holes
is very involved, though. I have to talk first about cosmology
in general, and how suns are created, and how they then
become black holes. This will be a few weeks down the line,
but I'll do it.
28. Thanks for the continued education. Again, I hope
I'm not misinterpreting you, but how was balance
maintained among the ancients DURING the times of
either patriarchal or matriarchal rule? It would seem
that things could become specifically one-sided during
the either/or periods. Wouldn't this have been
detrimental to some degree as opposed to a more
balanced, simultaneous sharing of power? Forgive me
for thinking in the Western mode of
patriarchal/matriarchal relations, but I mean how
would the end of such an extensive era come about---
-peacefully or under war conditions? Peace.
29. When a King hands over rule to a Queen, all the female
Judges are trained for about 100 years by the Queen of
their tribe and initiated into all the new rituals. The Judges
then initiate new custodians of rituals in every town. This
entire process lasts for 1,400 years, and is deliberate and
meticulous. It does not involve any kind of strife at all
because it has been going on back and forth for countless
trillions of years, ever since it was established by the B8M
original Gods. Now when the transition is complete, the
youngest generation is raised under this matriarchal system,
while the rest of the population continues to perform
patriarchal rituals (except, of course, those rituals that are
gender specific, meaning for women only or for men only.Those never change.) After 6,000 years, all the older
generations have passed away and the first generation to
be raised under a matriarchy are now the oldest
generation. There is not a single person left on earth other
than the leaders who remembers anything at all about the
old patriarchal system. The matriarchy continues for 25,000
years as if the earth had always been that way, until a King
takes over the crown. Then the opposite occurs, a new
patriarchy is established and lasts for another 25,000 years.
30. The concept of balance was viewed differently then
than it is now. To our ancestors the law of balance is the law
of the pendulum, which swings one way and then the
other. Our lifespan is too short to observe the fairness of this
law. The ancients were so long lived that to them balance
meant a totally different thing.
31. Each King or Queen who rules the earth has to fulfill a
purpose unique to him or her. No two rulers have the same
purpose. Altogether there are 24 purposes lasting for
700,000 years. The 24 purposes of society come in two
versions, 12 male purposes and 12 female. Each one is the
manifestation of one of the two aspects of God, either the
male or female aspect.
32. In order for each King to fulfill the mission of his Kingdom,
he must swing the pendulum all the way to the extreme in
the form of a patriarchal society. The same is true with the
Queen.
33. The reason for this is that it would be impossible to
manifest certain attributes of the male aspect of God if the
King did not have 100% power over the whole nation. If he
shared power evenly with the Queen in the balanced way
you suggested, it would be impossible for him to fulfill his
mission. He would be hindered by objections from the
Queen when it came to fulfilling certain plans that are
CHAPTER 9 79
contrary to a woman's nature. I'm speaking in general terms
to illustrate very specific things. But I'll give you an example.
34. Right now we are in the 15,000th year of a patriarchal
system. The King of our earth has 10,000 years more to rule.
He has absolute power on all important matters. If he did
not, it would not have been possible to make the light
races. Such an evil being would not have been made if the
Queens had a say in it, because the turmoil, disruption and
evil that was foreseen goes against the feminine nature,
which is gentle and peace-loving.
35. Similarly there are certain feminine aspects of God that
must be manifested as well, that a King would not think of
on his own. In the end, the extreme female aspects of God
always balance those of his male nature.
36. My explanation above would perhaps give the
impression that there is disagreement between the ruling
King and his Queen, or the ruling Queen and her King. Such
is not the case. The Elders are always united in purpose, as
they are always of one mind and heart. But this is not the
case in all people. The ordinary people are in varying stages
of reaching the perfection of divine unity in which the Elders
live. The mission and purpose of every King and Queen
ultimately depends on the co-operation of the ordinary
people in order to be fulfilled.
37. When the King or Queen has absolute, unquestioned
power in a patriarchy or matriarchy, it's not only easier but
also efficient, in that his or her plans will be executed to the
smallest detail. Obviously our system has endured forever
because the rulers are the personification of goodness itself,
otherwise it would be a dictatorship.
That, in brief, is the real reason for long-lasting matriarchies
and patriarchies.
38. Having said all that, I'd suggest that it would be a
mistake to evaluate our ancient system using the present form of white patriarchy for comparison. Our system has
nothing in common with theirs. They use patriarchy for
domination. To them it's an excuse to oppress the woman,
whereas to the ancients it's an opportunity to reveal the
male nature of God, which is always good.
39. Black Roots, I enjoy and have learned alot from
the knowledge of self and nature you've posted. Being
that knowledge without under/inner/overstanding isn't
complete, I ask these questions for the purpose of
under/inner/overstanding.
40. There are alot of similiarities between what you've
shared in your posts, such as the 12 tribes and 24
elders, and the Nation of Islam's teachings. Are you
familiar with any of the Nation of Islam's teachings?
41. If so, what is your view on Master Fard Muhammad
being called the God head of the council of the 24
Elders; and I would also like to know your view on the
teachings on Yakub?
42. Yes, I'm familiar with the teachings of Elijah Muhammad,
which are true. The rest of your questions require more time
to answer, so I'll postpone answering them until Monday or
Tuesday.
Here's the answer to the rest of your questions:
43. As I mentioned in a previous post, and as you're
probably aware from your knowledge of our Nation's
history, Black people used to inhabit the whole earth. We
had 12 countries spread all over, on every continent starting
in Asia and the Pacific, across Africa and Europe and all the
way to the Americas.
44. When the light races appeared 6,000 years ago, they
forced the evacuation of some of our ancestors from all the
continents and into Africa. There were remnants of our
CHAPTER 9 81
people left everywhere, and their descendents are still to
be found in the most unusual places, although their
bloodlines have been very much diluted.
45. Around 6,000 years ago, when our ancestors began
migrating in large numbers, the centers of civilization kept
changing from place to place. There was a time when India
was the center of Black culture. Then it moved north into
the area now called Pakistan. Then it switched completely
after a couple of millennia to south and central America. It
then moved again to Asia, where Egypt and the Middle
East, including Sumer, or what is now called Iraq, became
the capital of the world. Toward the end of its dynasties,
Egypt became lighter-skinned in its leadership as more
social interaction occurred between Black people and the
light races.
46. Now and then, when the lighter-skinned pharaohs
totally corrupted it, a Black pharaoh would be raised either
from Ethiopia or southern Egypt, also known as Upper Egypt.
He or she would then take over and restore civilized culture.
Egypt prospered during the reigns of these Black pharaohs,
as can be seen in the fact that the greatest monuments
were built during their reign. Examples are King Taharqa,
Queen Hatshepsut, and Kings Akhenaton and
Tutankhamen. Egypt deteriorated when light-skinned
pharaohs came back into power because their allegiance
was not to the Black population, but only to power. A good
example is Rameses and his father.
47. These cycles of prosperity and misery were the direct
result of the infiltration of the light races into our culture.
What happened in Egypt happened identically on every
other continent.
48. When the misery and oppression of the people became
almost unbearable, a savior always rose up among them to offer them comfort. Over the last 6,000 years there have
been 7 saviors. They are called mahdis in Arabic.
49. The first savior to comfort our people was born when
India was the center of the Black world at the very
beginning of the existence of the light races.
Since then, a savior has come approximately every 1,000
years.
50. Now, I'll mention at this point that one of the biggest
weapons of the arch deceivers is to steal our cultural
legacies. Not only have white people stolen our lands, but
they have also succeeded in stealing our ancestors as well,
which is a much more sinister type of robbery. They adopt
the culture and language (then proceed to corrupt them
beyond recognition) of the regions of Black people that
they invaded and settled, either through warfare or slowly
through social and economic infiltration. Then after some
centuries they claim all our great ancestors as their own. The
most successful at this are the Jews, Arabs and other Middle
Easterners who say that the ancients of the Old Testament
were white like them, when in fact they were Black people.
The second savior came about a thousand years later in
what is now called Pakistan.
51. In the third millennium of the existence of the races, the
center of civilization moved from Asia to the Americas.
There Black people built a mighty civilization. It was also in
that millennium that the hordes of marauding mongols
crossed the Bering Strait from eastern Europe into Alaska.
Some of them remained in the northern cold climates and
became today's Eskimos. Most of them migrated southward
to warmer climates in north, central and south America,
were Black people lived.
52. Their social interaction with our people resulted in the
people today called native Americans, most of which, as
you well know, were recently wiped out by the white
CHAPTER 9 83
Americans. In those ancient days, these mongols drove
Black people out of the Americas. Their way of living was so
base and foul that after they had assumed power, most
Black people abandoned those lands and crossed the
Atlantic into Africa. There they joined their brothers and
sisters in what was then the Ethiopian empire. A few
remained behind, and their descendents are still to be
found today in central and south America. At the peak of
the mongols' corrupt rule, before the mass migration into
Africa, the oppression reached its climax. A third savior was
born at that time among the Black people. He taught his
generation about their origins and about the origins of the
light races. He forecast for them the end of the era of the
light races. Mayans later transcribed the forecast onto a
tablet of stone called the Mayan calendar. Many Black
people migrated into Africa soon after his passing.
53. From Ethiopia, they sent colonists up north into the
marshes and deltas of the Nile River. They transformed that
land and built the mighty civilization of Egypt. After many
centuries of peace, white people found their way into that
country as well. Soon they had succeeded in bringing
untold corruption and deceit into a peaceful society. They
proceeded to occupy positions of power, and soon their
mixed children became pharaohs and priests. Oppression
and misery followed in short order, and at that time a fourth
messiah was born among the population. His name was
Moses. With the help of his brother he taught and
comforted our people, while at the same time trying to recivilize
the light races, who had deteriorated into the lowest
state of moral and social degradation. About a thousand
years later the suffering of Black people again reached a
peak in the Middle East, where many had settled after
escaping from Egypt. In one of their settlements known
today as Palestine, a fifth savior was born by the name of Jesus. Along with his assistant John they taught and
consoled the people.
54. The dispute about the racial identity of Jesus will
continue until the end, even though the Bible states that he
had hair the texture of lamb's wool and skin the color of
burnished copper.
55. The sixth messiah is also well known, by the name of
Muhammad of the Islamic religion. As has happened with
each and every savior, his legacy was stolen by the arch
deceivers and claimed as their own. They built the religion
of Islam around the legend of this Black man, using his
teachings in a corrupted way. His teachings, like those of
other saviors, were mostly about the right way of living, and
about the origin, nature and destiny of the light races,
whom he called devils. These same devils turned his
teaching inside out and made it into an oppressive religion
by which they continue to oppress each other and Africans
to this day.
56. Islam can only be salvaged from its quagmire by Black
people, and not by white muslims. The same is true for
Christianity, which is a similar corruption of Jesus's teachings.
57. The seventh and last mahdi was Fard Muhammad, and
the last prophet Elijah. They taught their generation of our
people at a time when the whites were getting ready to
take their deceptions to the final and highest level.
Fortunately for us, and unfortunately for them, they gained
worldwide power at the very time when their era comes to
an end. They have simply run out of time, and are now
coming face to face with their self-created destruction.
58. All 7 mahdis were sent by the Elders and the 144 Chiefs,
who are still in control of the earth's destiny, despite the
madness of the light races all around us.
59. There is no person who is the God of all the other Elders.
All the Elders are united as one in mind and heart and
CHAPTER 9 85
together form the custodianship of what we call God. In
truth, God is the divine unity of all 1 billion eight million Black
people on earth. The Elders are the custodians of this divine
unity, the ones who keep it conscious in their minds until all
people are able to join in it.
60. They choose one among them to rule the whole Nation
for 25,000 years and rotate this period of leadership among
all 24. As they rotate, they also alternate, meaning every
King is followed immediately by a Queen, and vice versa,
because 12 of the Elders are men and 12 are women.
61. As to whether Fard Muhammad is one of the Elders or
not, it is not proper for me to say. There are many things that
each one of us will remember when the time comes. I only
intend to outline our history and destiny in general terms.
The rest of the story, as they say, will soon be known.
62. I'll talk about Yakub when I talk about lucifer in a later
post. I'm not implying here that Yacub and lucifer are the
same. Yakub is not lucifer, but his maker.
63. Black Roots, before engaging any further or into a
more technical dialogue, I have just one question.
Do you believe that everything that THEM (The
Honorable Elijah Muhammad) taught is 100% truth?
64. My brother, I don't concern myself with beliefs. I know
that the prophet Elijah taught the truth, because I was
taught the same truth by the elders of my tribe in my
initiation. Now before you engage me in a debate, stop for
a moment and ask yourself: do you know the truth of Elijah
from first hand knowledge? So I would ask you to collect
that truth that you are absolutely sure of and post it here for
the benefit of the people. That is the higher purpose to
which Elijah Muhammad dedicated his life, and not the
glorification of himself or any religion. The time for such things is over. Now there is only one purpose; to end the
cycle of yt without another 100 year delay.
65. Black Roots, you've stated that Prophet Muhammad
was a black man. This contradicts THEM in the
Theology of Time lecture series dated June 4, 1972.
You can go to
www.seventhfam.com and hear THEM
say in his own words that Prophet Muhammad 1,400
years ago was a white man. They have it online in
audio it's the June 4, 1972 tape part 1 side 1.
66. As far as the Mongolians migrating here across the
Bering Strait. Here's a quote also from Message To
The Black Man Chapter 55, "The black man produces
these four colors: brown, red, yellow and white. The
original people, whom the white race found here (red
people), were the brothers of the black man, they are
referred to as the Red Indians. The Indian part of
the name must refer to the name of the country from
which they came, India. The All-wise Allah said that
they came here 16,000 years ago and that they were
exiled from India for breaking the law of Islam".
Aren't Mongolians from Mongolia?
67. Also, according to the teachings of the Nation of
Islam, the 24 elders (also called scientists) are like a
secret order. This secret order are said to be the
wisest men on the planet. The 24th is said to be wiser
than the other 23. The wisest one is called the
Supreme Being. They teach that Master Fard
Muhammad is the Supreme Being in this present cycle.
They don't teach, at least I've never read it in any of
the Honorable Elijah Muhammad's literature nor in the
Lost Found Muslim Lessons, that any of these
scientists are women.
68. You did say that you don't believe, but know that
the teachings of THEM are true. So how do you
explain these contradictions.
I look forward to your reply, peace.
CHAPTER 9 87
69. I have a strong suspicion your goal is the same as ours
concerning white people. We only differ in that you want to
glorify Elijah and Fard above all, when in fact all Black
people are already glorified as ONE. We have been
glorified since eternity, are now, and ever shall be.
70. The reason Elijah said that Muhammad was a white man
was to get the attention of his followers away from white
Islam back to his own teachings. He made this statement in
the latter part of his life, after the disagreement with
Malcolm X. After that time, a lot of his followers went to
white Islam and began to reject true Islam as taught by him.
To dissuade them, he told them that the founder of the
religion they were trying to embrace was a white man. This
worked to bring a lot of Black people back to his teachings.
71. It's clear from his writings that he knew Muhammad was
a Black man. For instance, he made statements such as:
"Muhammad was given the knowledge of the devils by
the Elders. He was told that he could not reform the devils
and that the race had 1,400 more years to live; the only
way to make them righteous was to graft them back into
the Black Nation."
72. Does this make sense if Muhammad was himself a devil?
He told the truth about him much earlier in his writings. For
instance, in 1957 when he was writing a regular news
column in the Pittsburgh Courier (on Feb 2), he said:
"The old Christian missionaries who wrote on the life of
Muhammad were his enemies. They were so grieved over
the success of Muhammad and Islam that they wrote falsely
against this man of God by attributing his success to the use
of the sword instead of to Allah. All who hate Islam use
these same false charges against Muhammad. As I have
said before in this column, Muhammad was a member of
the Black Nation, and the white race, by nature, is against
the Black man."73. There's an important reason why he never mentioned
that 12 of the Elders were women. The mission of Fard and
Muhammad was to lay the foundation for the formation of
the 144,000 so-called "elect". In order to do this, they
needed a solid plan to make sure they would succeed.
Back in the '30s when they were beginning the recruitment
of followers for their movement, it was still generally
believed by many people, white as well as Black, that men
and women are not equal. This lie is 6,000 years old. It has
deepened since the advent of Christianity and was spread
even more after the advent of Islam, where women to this
day are more oppressed than in Christianity.
74. With this prevalent attitude, it would have been
impossible to start a fledgling movement from scratch if
they were to teach that God is a Black woman. Who would
have followed such a teaching?
75. Even today, a lot of people are outraged when told
that God is a woman as well as a man.
But that is the most fundamental truth of all.
God is united in the mind of the Elders as two soul mates. At
the time of conception, he/she separates and is born as a
Black boy and girl.
76. This is most difficult for some men to accept. Even some
women are shaken when they hear this; they prefer to
leave the creation of the universe in the hands of the
"strong male figure".
That's wishful thinking. Reality is real. God is both male and
female.
77. To circumvent this obstacle, Fard and Elijah decided to
teach that 12 of the scientists were "major" and 12 "minor".
Later on, they said 12 were fathers and the other 12 their
sons. This proved to be acceptable and they proceeded to
form the most significant Black movement since the time of
the first Muhammad.
CHAPTER 9 89
78. The idea that the 24 Elders are not ever to reveal
knowledge means that this knowledge is held in
custodianship by the custodians of knowledge in some
African tribes. There is certain knowledge that is held only by
the 24 Elders, that they do not reveal for practical reasons.
For example, they never reveal (for a set period) who's the
next couple that will join the eldership when the King and
Queen pass away (or rather, ascend). There is a practical
reason for this that I will discuss when I talk about the
Eldership, and how people become Elders.
79. The idea that the 24th Elder is the Supreme God is a
misinterpretation. It's understandable how much Elijah was
awed by Fard's knowledge, and thus came to the
conclusion that he must be an Elder and a supreme God.
The King or Queen of the earth is supreme not because of
being a superior person, superior to all other Black people.
There is no person who is superior to all other Black people.
All Black people come from Oneness. God (divine unity of
all Black people) separated into 2 then 3 then 7 then 12
then 144 then 144,000 then 144,000,000 then after 7
generations became 1 billion eight million. The 1B8M Black
people on earth today are those very same Gods.
80. The reason one of the Elders is supreme is simply
because he or she is the oldest. The King or Queen of the
earth is the oldest person on earth, being around 700,000
years old. This longevity, in our natural world, translates
directly into wisdom. Wisdom is the accumulation of life
experiences. When all people are equal in mental abilities,
as the ancients were, the oldest is naturally the wisest, since
he or she has experienced more, and has undergone more
rituals of initiation. That's what makes the King or Queen
supreme.
81. There is nothing mystical in the way our ancestors lived.
Their way of life was simple and natural, albeit the simplest
