The Holy Books say that we will recognize the arrival of the Day of Judgment by its signs. The signs of the Day of Judgment confirm the Model of the invisible world of knowledge.
“The last Hour will not come unless there is much bloodshed.”[1]
Indeed, the entire twentieth century was marked by wars and dictatorships. It is estimated that more than one hundred million people died violent deaths during that time. The war in Bosnia was marked by the deaths of several hundred thousand people.
“Time will pass rapidly…”[2]
“If thou be among the indiscreet, observe the time…”[3]
After the birth of every human being, the development of their reason begins. The Model of the invisible world tells us that this is the moment when life is born within us, on our hereditary material. The time it took for life on Earth to develop from the first cells to the human being is analogous to a span within our own lives. Exactly that amount of time is available to life on our hereditary material to achieve development from a cell to a human. This means that 4,000,000,000 years in the inorganic cosmos is analogous to 40 years of human life. Time is indeed “passing rapidly” within my reason compared to the duration of events in the inorganic cosmos. One year of my life is, for the life within me, analogous to millions of years. It is truly necessary to avoid any activity that would affect my hereditary material and my understanding of the material and spiritual world, as such influence becomes a brake on development. The goal is a level of development of reason at which awareness of the invisible world is present. Sin is the failure to reach the goal. That is exactly what this word means. Therefore, it is necessary to “observe the time”, that is, be careful not to let the actions of those who have no interest in understanding the world they live in hinder the development of our reason; or worse yet, to let their influence cause a regression in the development of life on our hereditary material, leading to the loss of an already achieved level of structural development in plants and animals. In such a case, the time invested in reaching the level of life development on our hereditary material that existed immediately before the reversion would be irretrievably lost.
“A sign of the Day of Judgment is the speech of animals and objects.”[4]
Animals and objects do not speak. How then can I say that these prophecies have been fulfilled? We say that man is a conscious being. For God, man is a conscious being only if he has awareness of the invisible cosmos of knowledge. Until that moment, one cannot speak of man, but of an animal – an unconscious being. These unconscious beings are all the people on Earth. The human body is a planet in the invisible cosmos – the cosmos of hereditary material. The planet is a “big rock”. The Model provides an interpretation for the mentioned quotations. Indeed, one can truly say of human speech that it is the speech of animals and objects.
“Islam began as a small religion and will return to the state in which it began.”[5]
Those who now call themselves Muslims will not disappear or be killed. Islam requires of Muslims that they believe in one God, all revelations, all prophets, God’s Predestination, the Day of Judgment, and the malaika (angels). Islam also requires belief in the invisible world. Islam did not begin with the revelation of the Quran to Muhammad. According to the Quran, the God of Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad is one and the same God. The Day of Judgment is the beginning of true belief. Neither Muslims nor Christians nor Jews are true believers. The word Islam and the word Muslim are Arabic terms for believing in what the Old and New Testaments, as well as the Quran, require of believers. Other peoples have their own words for this same meaning. This also applies to the word Allah.
The authors of the Vatican document titled “Let us free ourselves from our greatest prejudices“[6] appeal to Christians: “We need to undertake a deep purification of our attitudes. We are thinking in particular of certain ready-made judgments that we too often and too easily make about Islam. It seems essential that we not nurture, deep in our hearts, these overly hasty, even arbitrary opinions in which the sincere Muslim does not recognize himself. We use the word Allah to designate the Muslim God, as if Muslims believe in a God who is not the Christian God. For a Muslim, Allah is none other than the God of Moses and Jesus. It seems pointless to argue that Allah is not truly God. The conciliar texts have justly condemned such claims. Muslims, who, professing to hold the faith of Abraham, along with us adore the one and merciful God, who on the last day will judge mankind.”
It is a great mistake to identify Islam and Muslims with the believers who currently follow only the latest God’s revelation, the Quran, and call that belief – Islam. Christians, “Muslims”, and Jews all claim that the faith is one and that it is precisely what they now believe in.
The Day of Judgment did not bring a new faith, but rather the conditions in which it becomes possible to believe in the foundations of faith. A new interpretation of the Holy Books gives every person the opportunity to realize for themselves that there is one God, that the Old Testament, the New Testament, and the Quran are His revelations, that all the prophets were human beings and that there is no distinction among them, that the Day of Judgment has arrived, and that everything God has decreed has been fulfilled. The prophecy says that such people, true believers, will be few.
“For men will be… holding the form of religion but denying the power of it.”[7]
“For men will be lovers of self.”[8]
“Fools and the incapable will have the final say.”[9]
“Preference will be given to corrupt and bad people over the good and honest ones.”[10]
War is truly a great evil among people. In Bosnia, these prophecies were also fulfilled. For good people, it is a time of misfortune. For the corrupt and bad, it is a life opportunity.
