Onto the blank canvass of universal darkness,
Jesus, a Man, stepped out from Heaven, and then He spoke.
Within Him was, and still remains, The Godhead’s FULLNESS. 1
As He spoke, Their design for the universe …uncloaked.
Into perpetual motion, He then ordered it to spin.
He began to animate the script of life that He wrote,
Knowing full well it was written that all would be stained with sin.
Thus, worlds and life were framed, with man as creation’s …endnote.
To us, time is marked by rotations of Earth,
Since the start, it daily marches.
To Him Whose wisdom is of unknowable worth,
Into ‘now’, all time …collapses!
With perfect control of all design, wisdom and time,
Ponder: Why might The Godhead desire …a written script??
We use books for both information and to pass time.
They use books for those who, with wisdom, are …‘less equipped!’
Mankind, created a little lower than The Godhead. 2
Angels, created to serve both The Godhead and mankind.
It’s for us the script of life is written, wisdom to shed,
Written so with Them, we could …spiritually align.
Since there’s no such thing as a book without a title,
Pray-tell, what’s the title of the book The Lord produced??
He dispatched an angel to the prophet named, Daniel,
To tell us His Book is titled, The Scripture of Truth. 3
Like me, perhaps you thought His Book is called, The Bible.
It is! There are strong links between these books, presumably.
By the notion of multiple books, don’t be baffled,
Since with books, He has a …documented proclivity! 4
Re. The Scripture of Truth the angel mentioned to Daniel,
This is what I see and from it intuit:
In form and structure, it’s not clearly understandable,
With such details from which we cannot profit.
So, in The Lord’s great wisdom and love for humanity,
From His Book, perhaps He selected and summarized,
Excerpts as stories we relate to intrinsically.
Voila, His ‘must-know’ Truths in The Bible …humanized.
Thank The Lord, The Scripture of Truth is up in Heaven.
With incredible details, Daniel was inundated.
Thank The Lord, The Holy Bible for Earth is fashioned.
By both scripts, we and all creation …are animated. 5

1 The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, manifesting as One, in the Man, Jesus. See: Colossians 1:19 and 2:9
2 See: Psalms 8:5 (Amplified, Jewish Orthodox and Young’s Literal versions) The original Hebrew text is construed as, "You made him [man] lower than God", while the Greek Septuagint has the meaning, "You made him lower than the angels". See: Wikipedia
3 See: Daniel 10:21
4 Through men, The Lord wrote The Bible, comprising 66 books (which I suggest reading as chapters of one book). It is fascinating to study what The Bible says about books. The most pivotal insights are about The Book of Life, in which is written the name of every person who accepts God’s offer of salvation and eternal life, including folks who, during the pre-cross ages of history, died in faith toward Him, the unseen God. Is your name written therein? See: Revelation 3:5, 20:12-15, 21:27 and 22:19. All of His books correlate with His consistent strategy and message, that Jesus is Lord over all creation, and Judge over all flesh. Any book purporting to be His, that does not resound with this core message, isn't His, period!
5 Daniel chapters 11 and 12 read somewhat like a playscript or screenplay about actors who were not yet on life’s stage. What does this suggest to you concerning Jesus, Lord of Heaven, all creation and all life? See: Acts 17:28
