SECTION I
<1>This generation of human with the form as we
know it now started 12,000 years ago and was completed 6,000 years
ago. God
took away the spiritual powers of man and increased his intellectual
understandings. <2>Man became a thinking being rather than a being
with spiritual powers. Through many evolutionary steps,
God brought man to this
helpless point in order to guide him. (For more detail, read
The Base).
<3>Through the history of the last six thousand
years, by many lessons from Great
Souls, and through His
Prophets,
God
has created a fountain of knowledge and has given many lessons in
order to guide the humans to understand the truth behind this
creation and the goal of the life.
<4>After the flood of Noah until the time of
Abram's selection as the
father of the
Hebrews, many humans
went through progress toward higher consciousness and were ready to
be chosen as
Elected Ones. These
Elected Ones will
be used to bring the spiritual truth and realities behind this
universe to humanity.
<5>Also, to make man understand and believe that
these six thousand years of history have been guided by the Lord,
great events which took place in this time period had been predicted
and prophesied by His Messengers, and are written in the Scriptures. These were given so that many might believe, especially in this time
of religious degeneration.
The
earth is divided
<6>To start this part of The Plan, the earth was
divided and one part of it was reserved for a great purpose. This
event should have had great significance in that it was recorded in
the Bible: "...for in his days was the earth divided;..."
(Gen. 10:25). What was the purpose of this division, and what land
has it been? The answers to these questions are one part of The
Plan.
Abram
is chosen as the father
of the
Hebrews
Now the Lord had said unto
Abram, Get thee
out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from
thy
father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I
will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt
be
a blessing:
And I will bless them that bless thee, and
curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families
of the earth be blessed.
(Genesis 12:1-3)
<7>With this,
God
chose Abram and
commanded him to "...Get thee out of thy country, and from thy
kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew
thee." Abram complied
with the command of the Lord, took all his belongings, and left his
home. So he showed his obedience to the Lord and his detachment to
the external world and its attractions, such as family, friends, and
belongings.
<8>Also, if the command was obeyed there was a
promise: "And I will make of thee a great nation,...will bless thee,
and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing" and "I will
bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in
thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." <9>The command was
obeyed, so the promise would be fulfilled by the Lord.
A promise
is given about
Abram's seed
And the Lord said unto
Abram, after that
Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look
from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and
eastward, and westward:
For all the land which thou seest, to thee
will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
And I will make thy seed as the dust of the
earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then
shall thy seed also be numbered.
(Genesis 13:14-16)
<10>Two things were promised: First, that a land
would be given to Abram's
seed which stretches northward, southward, eastward and westward
(with no mention of boundaries), and secondly, that he would
increase his seed "as the dust of the earth."
So the land should be
very large to bear that huge a population.
This promise is given
for
Ishmael
And
Abram was
fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare
Ishmael to
Abram.
(Genesis 16:16)
<11>These promises were given to
Abram. The seed of
Abram was
Ishmael. Later on
God changed the name of
Abram to
Abraham
and gave him new promises different from these and also a promise of
a new seed by the name of Isaac. These new promises after the change
of the name to
Abraham were given to
Abraham and Isaac. But
the promises which were given to
Abram were for his seed,
Ishmael. <12>Also, as
we can see historically, the promises given for
Ishmael, the father of the Arabs, have come true. Arabs are a
great nation with a large territory.
