To AFRICA: HERE WE COME:...144,000 Black Americans for establishing homeland

I WON'T EVEN BEGIN TO TELL YOU WHAT MY UNCLE THINKS ABOUT THAT 144,000 NUMBER.... LET ME JUST PUT IT THIS WAY.... HE SAYS THAT I'M NOT IN THE NUMBER.... ha! ha! ha.... well my thoughts are if he's in that number.... Im glad Im not....

Clark,

The 144,000 that Jamal speaks of are only mentioned in the book of Revelation and there only 3 times. (Rev. 7:4, 14:1, 14:3)

The 144,000 are not only those that were with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. I'll quote the only mention of this number in Message To The Black Man (Chapter 25):

"It is written (Rev. 14:1) that 144,000 of us will accept and return to our God and people and the rest of my people will go down with the enemies of Allah. For this sad prophesy of the loss of my people I write what I am writing, hoping perhaps that you may be able to beat the old prophets predictions by making the truth so simple that a fool can understand it."

The Messenger warned us all. It's in the Problem Book that Master Fard Muhammad, Allah in Person, wrote:

"Twelve Leaders of Islam met from all over the Planet have conferred in the Root of
Civilization concerning the Lost-Found Nation of Islam - must return to their own
original Land. One of the Conference Members by the name of Mr. Osman Sharrief said to the Eleven Members of the Conference:

"The Lost-Found Nation of Islam will not return to their original Land unless they,
first, have a thorough Knowledge of their own."

So they sent a Messenger to them of their own.

Now, the Messenger and his Laborers worked day and night for the last three and one-half years, and their accomplishments are approximately twenty-five thousand.
The Messenger and his Laborers are worried, for the time of Laboring is mentioned and limited in said, Problem No. 31.

One of the Prophets in the early days said:
"The Lost-Found Nation of Islam, numbering one hundred forty-four thousand, will be Stars, and will return to their original Land. And the Balance," he said, "are
poison and rusty, and will not take the Knowledge on their own."

But the Messenger and his Laborers do not agree with the old Prophet in this
modern time. He thinks that he will remove all poison and rust from every one of the
seventeen million. At the same time, he desires for everyone of us to help solve this Problem since you have learned the time, accomplishment and old Prophet's Number
- (one hundred forty-four thousand)."

The 144,000 is the old prophet's number and the Messenger and his Laborers
disagree with the old prophet in this modern time. Neither do the believers.

Clark, Apparently almighty god makes a separation of two distinct groups; the first responders and the "others". In other words when the handwriting is all on the walls meaning that it is so obvious that it is the last days of judgement. And there are those that hear the way of God and respond accordingly, the One god puts in a group. Then there are the procrastinators....they don't react unless forced to act....unless they receive a beating.....unless a tornado, earthquake or hurricane hits their home and family.....unless a punishment is afflicted upon them , the one God puts into another group.

My mathematics background makes me in tune to numbers when divine inspiration comes to me and the 144,000 number was one such number. Of course, I am not going to be limit the number of choice Black Americans that are successful in making it to the kingdom of God in Africa but it is interesting that this is the number that the prophets say......I would think that this will be close to the number that actually make that move.

Sis. Siebra speaks of the teachings via the nation of Islam and other religions believe their flock will make up the 144,000......Lets let almighty God be the judge...because all He require is the willingness to act truthfull and righteous in all things. If the majority turns out to be Muslim...then so be it....if the majority turns out to be Christian...then so be it....if there are Jehovah Witness...then so be it...if there are some white people....then so be it.....but these are the first fruits unto God in his kingdom. My suspicion is that there will be more Christian than Muslim only because sometime a person cannot see the forest for the trees. And Muslims may get so hiped up knowing the truth of GOD that they neglect to know when to "act according to God plan". Whereas, the Messenger Elijah Muhammad said that the best are still out there meaning many very good black Americans had yet to convert to Islam.
