SPECULATIVE, SPIRITUAL POEM (INSPIRED, BUT NOT INTENDED TO REPRESENT ORTHODOX THEOLOGY):
1st Stanza:
I sing the song of God’s Love,
I sing of His Spirit,
Who will knit all of Creation,
Into God’s Divine, Love Affair!
***
Before or above or other than,
Our Earth,
We dwell as spiritual beings.
We roame the infinite mansions of God’s Creation,
At will,
And as lesser Gods.
But then comes the Rival of God,
Lucifer,
Into God’s chambers, saying:
“These beings whom You are so pleased with,
These infants who succor of Your created gifts,
Who weave through the forest of Your Creation;
They love themselves and they love You only because,
You are so good and generous to them.
But just you incarnate them into the lowest rung of Your Creation,
Into the material universe,
And give them heavy bodies and forgetfulness of their great souls.
And then will they curse Your Name!
They will choose to disobey You by my temptation,
And they will encounter sickness and labor and death,
And they will finally show you their truth.
In their final days I will give them technology,
And I will inspire them to seize the gifts of Your Creation,
To Travel the stars by their own hands, and design their own immortality,
Via their sciences, my counterfeit.”
And so began life as human beings,
And God inspired the parable of Job,
In order to make us aware,
Of the genealogy of our physical existence…

At Lucifer’s behest,
God the Father was penchant.
For he knew that great pains and trials,
Would befall His beloved.
But He also knew,
That he gave all his created beings the gift of Free Will,
In order that they might choose to Love Him,
And through Love,
Be adopted into his own, Divine Love Affair!
And while Lucifer was the first of His created beings to reject Him,
Bringing evil into His Creation,
God also knew that,
The great trial of His innocent, infant beings,
Who are to become human,
Would undermine Lucifer’s very rebellion of angels!
For his infant beings, now human, will be adopted into His very Godhead,
Becoming co-equal with God,
And winning, by obedient love,
That which Lucifer endeavored to take!

***
Human history began with a Garden of Eden,
A paradise which mirrored the spiritual paradise,
In which God’s infant beings dwelled.
But while their souls formerly soared the spiritual mansions,
And wove through the created forests of God,
Their human form now opened a new dimension for their dwelling,
A physical universe over which they were given rightful dominion–
In virtue of the hierarchy of their spiritual aspect.
And Lucifer did come, and did tempt and deceive them into rebellion,
And their disobedience of God plunged the universe into disorder,
And they became acquainted with suffering, and DEATH.
So that by having the knowledge of Good and Evil,
Their remnant shall destroy the head of evil, Lucifer,
For choosing the good,
In the consummation of time.

And in the ripeness of time,
God the Son incarnated as human,
And began the great process,
Of re-weaving the physical universe,
Into God’s Kingdom.
The momentum of Lucifer’s,
Rebellion among human beings,
Resulted in the death of the Christ,
And the Church was begun,
Among human beings,
Guided by the Spirit of God.
Which remnant of the Children of God,
Will begin re-knitting,
The lowest rung of God’s Creation,
The material universe,
Into God’s divine, Love Affair!

When the resurrected Christ departed,
He sent the Spirit,
Which now works in the hearts of His Children,
Those who utilize their Free Wills,
To accept and obey their Creator.
Through them shall the Love of God,
Rise as the sun among humans,
Rejoining the material universe,
To the spiritual.
And God’s Kingdom will come on Earth,
As it is in heaven.
And Lucifer and his human remnant,
Shall be banished to the lake of the fire of their own hate,
And humanity shall marry the Lamb,
Entering the very Life of God,
And shall have won,
Not just the fruits of God’s love, the Paradise,
But shall triumph in the saga of,
Glorious Love!
