THE HOLIEST Children of Abram (Abraham)...
Tablet Twelve
SECTION IV
The promise of spiritual blessing also was given to Ishmael
<1>Any action or event which occurs in the universe creates a record of that event in the Universal Mind as the Akashic Records. These Akashic Records are the truest source of the realities behind this universe and whatever had happened from the beginning of creation until now is kept there. <2>Once in awhile, according to the need or Plan of God for the human, some truth of these records is sent to humanity by His Messengers, either to bring a new teaching or higher understanding to man, or to correct previous records.
<3>That is why it does not matter to God if humans change the Scriptures or if some of the Scriptures become lost. The truth will be revealed to a zealous individual who seeks it, and eventually to all of humanity, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" (Matthew 7:7).
Readings:
<4>The revelation of the events from these Akashic Records to humanity is known as Readings. For example, there was an American Prophet (or Sleeping Prophet as he is known) by the name of Edgar Cayce. He would lie down on the couch, go into a state of trance (or sleep), and answer many questions, diagnose diseases, or give remedies correctly. These answers to the questions are known as "the readings" of Edgar Cayce, which were revealed from the Akashic Records (the universal knowledge, or Universal Mind, or universal memory).
Koran means "readings"
<5>Prophet Muhammad also was commanded in a sleep or trance by an Angel of God (Gabriel) to "read." He did not know how to read so he answered, "I cannot read." The voice again said, "Read!" He repeated, "I cannot read." For the third time the voice demanded, "Read!" He then asked, "What can I read?" <6>So the revelations from these Akashic Records started to be revealed to him. In fact he never read anything but the voice of Gabriel revealed it to him from these records.
<7>That is why the Moslems call their book "The Koran," which means "The Readings." It is no accident that the answers from Prophet Cayce in sleep, and the revelations to Prophet Muhammad in a trance both are called "readings." This again has been done to make man believe and have faith in these revelations.
<8>Therefore, the Koran has been revealed from the Akashic Records. In Surah Ornaments of Gold (Az-Zukhruf 
) verse 4, these records are called "The Eternal Tablet." Also in the Koran it is revealed, "The records of the transgressor are kept in Sijjin" (bad records) and "The records for the righteous are kept in Iliyin " (good deeds) in Surah Defrauding (At-Tafif) verses 7-9 and 18-20. In the Bible, these records are called "the book of remembrance:"
Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.
(Malachi 3:16)
<9>The Koran was sent to correct previous stories which had been given by God, and also to bring new laws after the lawgiving was taken from Judah, "...nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come;" (Gen. 49:10). <10>Furthermore, we know the Old Testament had been lost, many other teachings had influenced it, and some parts had been omitted or added. Therefore, for understanding the truth, we should trust the new revelations which were sent by God to humanity. But not blindly -- we should see if they have been fulfilled or not.
What the Koran says about the
future of Abram's seed, Ishmael
...and of our offspring a nation submissive unto thee [God]...
...and from them raise a messenger for their guidance...
(Surah The Cow, 128-129)
<11>So there was to be a nation (birthright) and among them a Messenger (scepter) would arise. These both were fulfilled. Arabs are a nation and Prophet Muhammad is that Messenger. These prophecies (or promises) were given to Abram thousands of years ago.
<12>This truth (promise of spiritual blessing for Ishmael) either had been lost from the Bible through the turbulent history of the Hebrews, or the book was changed, and that part which told of a Prophet also coming from the seed of Ishmael was taken out of the Old Testament. Both of these explanations are possible because we know that the Old Testament was written around 500 B.C., and the book was completely lost after the captivity of the Jews. <13>It was revealed again in the Koran, "They say it is from Allah what they have written by their own hands. Woe be unto them!" (Surah The Cow, 79). <14>The blessing of God is the same as the promise of the scepter (Gen. 17:20).
<15>The point is that the promise of material possession (the birthright) and spiritual blessing (the scepter) were both also given to Ishmael. Not accepting this is to miss a great part of The Plan of the Lord.
It is also revealed in The Revelation
<16>In The Revelation, the last book of the Bible, it was predicted that seven truths would be revealed to humanity. The first truth is the teachings of the Far East -- Mystical Paths (
), which helped many Great Souls become prepared to be chosen as Elected Ones (Hebrews). This is symbolized by the white horse and its rider (Rev. 6:1-2). The second truth is the history and purpose of the Hebrews from the time of Abraham to the New Testament (
) and is symbolized by the red horse. The third truth is the black horse which is Christianity, the symbol of overcoming the lower nature of man (black horse) and bringing equality (the balance). The fourth truth or the end of the riders of the horses is the pale horse or Islam (for a deeper study, read Revelation of The Revelation).
<17>Islam is one of the accepted world religions, and a great part of humanity has been blessed through it. So denying its validity and that it has been the work of God for fulfilling the promises given to Abram for his seed Ishmael is just like denying the sun on a sunny day.
<18>Therefore, both the promises of the scepter (spiritual blessing) and birthright (the material possession) given to Abram and Abraham for his seed Ishmael and Isaac have been fulfilled.
