36. ALLIANCE MADE GIVES GYPSIES RIGHT to the Throne, and Katrina has little son (great, great, great grandson) who is Ivan the Terrible who then sits on throne of Russia.
37. (ABOUT THIS TIME, without knowing about Abrahim, Tabitha and Esther got the following and now-popular song from the Lord—One of the "Songs that Made the Revolution!"—"MOUNTAIN CHILDREN!":)
Peaceful night while the moon is bright
Love is in their hearts
Breezes blowin' by
Through the trees so high
Singing to the Lord!
Chorus:
Mountain children, yes, they're
Mountain children
I will bless my Colony!
Mountain children,
Mountain children,
Gypsies of the Lord!
Campfire glows while around they go
Dance before the King
Damsels shake the tumbrels,
While the men they sing
Praises to their God.
Mornin' comes on the road again
Happy Colony!
To another mountain‚ to another land
Bringing peace to man.
Abrahim, watch your children playin'
New Jerusalem!
Babies born anew‚
claim the promise, too,
Manifest in them!
Chorus:
Mountain children, yes, they're
Mountain children
I will bless my colony!
Mountain children,
Mountain children,
Gypsies of the Lord!
38. (8/4/70)—ON FIRST HEARING Tabitha sing above song for David, Abrahim exclaimed:) All about Jesus, give song about Children! Because Jesus know about Children! He know about Abrahim! He know about David. He know about Israel. He know about where we come from and where we go. He know this song about us. Some day we cross Great Sea to far land to mountain "From this mountain to that mountain" and there we will be free!
39. I SEE WHAT YOU SAY! The Children dance, sing and play so happy, so free, all by the mountain far away!—All children of Abrahim. We come back to our land after many, many year, because we are in India because we have come from Israel. We free in Israel, captives in Babylon. Persia, India—from Israel to India.
40. ISRAEL MANY HUNDRED OF YEARS AGO. Purged out of land. We flee to Persia, India, then we travel many years to try to come back home. Many years we pray to come back home. But we never get back home. Bulgaria. Tried to get across sea to Israel.
41. WE WANDER IN ALL EUROPE until some times we forget who we are. But name Abrahim, after my great, great, great Grandfather.(The impression was that all Gypsies are descendants of Abraham.)
42. MANY, MANY, ENEMIES. We have many enemies. Kill, kill, kill! We go to be with Jesus. But now come back to lead you back home! Angel of God: Abrahim come back like angel. Like Samuel come back, like Moses come back. Spirit of Abrahim in David. We go back to mountains of Israel. We travel so many places for so many years.
43. (PROPHECY BY AARON‚ Summer, 1970, U.S.:) EVEN AS THE JEWS AND THE RECHABITES (forefathers of the Gypsies, descended from the Arab Jethro who helped Moses) and early Christians and Gypsies were strangers and pilgrims and were not Systemites‚ were not in the System, even as the Gypsies today, even so have I called these that thou might be free unto Me, serve Me‚ even I have prepared for thee in the time of trouble that is ahead.
44. KNOW THAT THOU SHALT HAVE A TIME OF PEACE. I have blessed thee. Thou shalt bring peace to many peoples, languages and nations. "Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again."—(Luke 6:38)
45. WHAT? THINK YOU THAT THIS IS A STRANGE THING that I should minister to My servants through My servants who have gone before? For even as Moses and Elijah ministered to My Son on the Mount of Transfiguration, are they not as the angels of God sent forth to minister unto thee?
46. EVEN AS MY SERVANT JOHN WAS TOLD THROUGH the one who showed him great glad tidings of God and mysteries, and told him not to fall down‚ "for I am also thy fellowservant‚" so I can use Mine who have gone on before.
47. BE NOT WEARY IN WELL-DOING, for in due season you shall reap if you faint not! Thou art compassed about with a very great cloud of witnesses!
