Recognise common humanity

-

OFTEN truth is stranger than fiction.

Though we progress into a new century, with technology and science capable of many feats, it is ironic that most of humanity remains bound by prophesy from antiquity.

Generation­s before us were similarly bound by prophesy contained in texts sacred to Jews, Christians and Muslims.

In the time of Moses, the Pharaoh governing Egypt knew of the coming of a divine messenger and instructed his soldiers to kill boys as he sought to circumvent ordained prophesy.

In the time of Jesus, the Messiah, the King of Judea knew of the coming of a divine messenger and instructed his soldiers to kill newborn boys. The King also sought to escape ordained prophesy.

Muhammad the messenger also migrated from Mecca to Medina as his enemies plotted his death.

The age of prophesy has not ended as Jews, Christians and Muslims continue to await the coming of another divine envoy.

The purpose of this envoy is to establish truth and justice and to consolidat­e the message carried by Moses, Jesus and the Prophet Muhammad.

Those who plot against the envoys, want to maintain their unjust hegemony .

The conspirato­rs choose temporal luxury and power above eternal truth and justice.

The wealth of the world will always remain in the hands of 1% of the world’s population while 99% suffer.

These despotic rulers are masters of deception and have powerful propaganda mechanisms. They have engaged millions into conflict in their insatiable lust for power.

The elite utilises politician­s and religious leaders who lack proper understand­ing to serve their veiled plans.

Those who encourage racial and sectarian strife must be exposed.

For example, when Christians are harmed by insanity disguised as Islam, Muslims must condemn such actions. Similarly, Christians and others must react when Muslims are murdered in Myanmar.

We must recognise our humanity, otherwise the godless elite will continueth­eir abuse. CLLR YAGYAH ADAMS Cape Muslim Congress
