"They will cry: "O Malik! Would that thy Lord put an end to us!" He will say, "Nay, but Ye
shall abide!"- Surah 43:77 Al Zukhruf, Holy Koran
As mentioned in lesson 1, the angel Malik is in charge of hell according to the Holy Quran. Completely opposite
of many Christian's belief, who claim Satan as the angel in charge of hell. Yet, within the pages of
the Dictionary of Angels, Satan means "adversary". Even
examining Numbers 22:22, the Holy Bible, KJV; we learn the angel of the Lord stands against Ba'laam "for an adversary".
In fact, it reads:
"And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the Lord stood in the way
for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him. And as the ass saw the angel
of the Lord standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the
field: and Ba'laam smote the ass, to turn her into the way."- Numbers 22:22&23, the HolyBible, KJV
But who is Ba'laam? Or, as it is spelled in the Holy Quran: Ba'l.
"Will ye call upon Ba'l and forsake the Best of Creators- Allah, your Lord and Cherisher,
and the Lord and Cherisher of your fathers of old?"- Surah 37:125 & 126, Holy Quran
Unlike traditional teaching gathered from the Christian Church, the
evil one- the devil- or as many classify him:Satan, has been given many names. However, throughout history
these names have become distorted and misleading. So much, distinguishing which angels are related to Satan and
which are not, is probably just as disturbing to many, as trying to understand why Allah is called the Lord in the Holy
Quran to Christians'.
Nevertheless, it is extremely imparative that we begin to understand exactly
what we are facing as a nation. Despite our indifferences on religious doctrine, there are many great mysteries we do not
understand surrounding religion. So many, it seems the war America is facing is not a war located in Iraq or Iran, but in
our own neighborhoods.
"But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is
brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth."- Luke 11: 17, the Holy Bible, KJV
Today, many ministers provide eloquent speeches surrounding
the great perils facing our nation. With great zeal, these messengers rally their congregations with wisdom, in an effort
to help them defeat the worst of enemies. Yet despite these many great sermons, our nation still struggles
to become free. Free from the secrets left behind by our ancestors, who were merely fulfilling our hearts and minds with a
seed of hope, so we could continue this struggle with dignity.
Despite our greatest achievements, we are still divided. Divided
by beliefs and superstitious hauntings from souls long past. In a quest to find deliverance from our mudane way of exist,
many of us seek traditional roads, because they have proven to be the safe net. However, when faced with turmoil, it is time
to begin rebuilding the strength of all who exist. And in order to begin doing so, we must resolve our differences.
Religion is a way of life. It is a way of being. The various dialogues,
tongues, speeches, and doctrine, are designed to give us a reason to get up and keep going when we do not have the energy
to do so. As witnessed long before now, our ancestors fought feverishly to establish a world that would one day become free.
But so many of us are consumed by the wiles of Satan and other angels alike, we neglect to see the illusions
that have become a part of our reality.
Growth begins when you realize it's time for change. Despite our differences
in religious doctrine, the messages are clearly the same. It's our arguments of ignorance concerning
name recognition that keeps our nation in bondage. But America was built on: In God We Trust! Yet with so many religions
nowadays, we have become a nation feeding on the frenzy of hate. No longer do we possess the tenacity to stand firm as
one.
As it was written aforetime, the battle between good and evil will continue
to rear its ugly head, and this time, it has combed its way right into our backyards. However, in order for American's
to become completely free as written in the scribes, we each need to relinquish our ideals of seperatism. Freedom
of existence is a gift given to us by our Creator.
Coincidentally, throughout the King James Bible and the
Holy Quran, are stories of angels who played a very signififcant role in the lives of mankind. So much, reading
the scriptures will help you learn more about the angels who led many prophets to safety. In fact, according to the scriptures,
it was angels who provided great cities deliverence from evil spirits, not God. Looking in the Holy Quran, you can find
a scripture that instructs:
"Those who reject Faith, and die rejecting-on them is Allah's curse, and the curse of angels,
and of all mankind; they will abide therein: their penalty will not be lightened, nor will respite be their lot.
And your God is one God: there is no god but HE, Most gracious, Most merciful."- Surah 2:161,
162 & 163, the Holy Quran
Now when you examine the King James Bible, you find many scriptures that
instruct us on the importance of angels in man's journey. You also discover that it was an angel
of the Lord, as mentioned previously, who was sent to rescue Moses. As a matter of fact, in the book of Judges, it
was an angel of God who played another significant role.
"And the angel of God said unto him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon
this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so."- Judges 6:20,
the Holy Bible, KJV
And again, when you assume you know all there is to know about scriptural
doctrine, there is always something else that needs to be reexamined.
"And if any man think he knoweth anything, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. But
if any man love God, the same is known of him."- I Corinthians 8: 2&3, the Holy Bible, KJV
"Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your
own selves, how that Christ Jesus is in you, except ye be reprobates? But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates"-
II Corinthians 13: 5&6, the Holy Bible, KJV
"We already know how much of them the earth takes away: with Us is a record guarding (the
full account). But they deny the truth when it comes to them: so they are in a confused state."- Surah
50 :4,5 Qaf, the Holy Quran
Learning how to distinguish falsehood from truth is not as easy as it sounds,
because there are always angels trying to keep you from finding out the truth. That is why Esoteric Religious Truth.org
was established; to educate and empower you with a freedom- only a belief in God can restore.
