the greatness of Allah by conceiving Him now as
a “Father,” now as a “Son,” and now as a “Holy
Ghost,” or to imagine Him as having three persons
that can address each other with the three singular
personal pronouns: I, thou, he. By so doing we lose
all the true conception of the Absolute Being, and
cease to believe in the true God. In the same way,
we cannot add a single iota to the sanctity of the
religion by the institution of some

meaningless sacraments or mysteries; nor can we
derive any spiritual food for our spirits from feeding
upon the corpse of a prophet or an incarnate deity; for by
so doing we lose all idea of a true and real religion and
cease to believe in the religion altogether. Nor can we in
the least promote the dignity of Muhammad (pbuh) if we
were to imagine him a son of God or an incarnate deity;
for by so doing we would entirely lose the real and the
historical Prophet of Makkah and fall unconsciously into
the abyss of polytheism. The greatness of Muhammad (pbuh)
consists in his establishing such a sound, plain, but true
religion, and in the practical application of its precepts
and principles with such precision and resolution that it
has never been possible for a true Muslim to accept any
other creed or faith than that which is professed in the
formula: “I believe there is no god but Allah, and that
Muhammad (pbuh) is the Apostle of Allah.” And this short
creed will continue to be the faith of every true believer
in Allah to the day of the Resurrection.

Church, was not a Bar Allaha (“Son of God”), but a Bar
Nasha (“Son of Man”) and none other than Muhammadal
Mustapha (pbuh) who actually founded and established the
Kingdom of God upon earth. It is this Kingdom of God
that we are now to examine and expound. It would be
