Who is that being so wise and ignorant, so humble and arrogant, so brave and timid, so powerful and weak, so winner and loser, so holy and demon? That is what you´ll see in the next pages.
BEFORE HIM
BEFORE HIM
Once
upon a time there was a dark, gigantic and almost
infinite empty space. The vast
emptiness receives numerous stars grouped in many constellations. The Sun becomes the
fifth star in order of brightness. Despite so
many bright stars, their light still cannot cross
the large nebulous mass.
Then
a huge bubble of air is created, in the middle of that restless mass, while opens up a
stupendous ring of the same mass around
the same bubble. Water and
granite amalgamated from numerous different types
are the components of that stupendous arch .
Now comes
the turn of that ring split into many blocks,
which became known as planets and satellites.
Now the waters are focusing on different places, separated from the granites in each block. One of those blocks of water and solids is our Earth. In our Planet, the waters are focused in privileged volume.
Now the waters are focusing on different places, separated from the granites in each block. One of those blocks of water and solids is our Earth. In our Planet, the waters are focused in privileged volume.
The
stars go on warming up their planets and
satellites, however, they don´t illuminate through
the mega space yet.
Then
arises the vegetation with their large range
of species, both trailing as forestry, aquatic as earthy ,
wild as fruitful.
The
Sun's rays and other stars begin to illuminate their
planets and satellites, among them, the land and our
romantic Moon. On that occasion, the entire dynamic solar
system also begins to be seen by no one
here, because there is yet no creatures to see it. However, the
planets fully magnetized already have their
performance, turning around themselves and gravitating around
their stars kings. The best known result of that dynamics for
everyone today is the alternation of day and night, cold
and heat, spring and summer, autumn and winter.
Now, then the
first living things arise, which are the
fish with their innumerous species, the same happening with the
birds.
The
following appear the land
animals, also distributed in many types, large and small, meek and brave, oviparous and
mammals, bipeds and quadrupeds.
A STRANGE
CREATURE
Finally,
it appears the most notable of all beings ever
seen on the face of the Earth. The Man Angel. He had a chemical
composition very similar to that of animals, and showed also
a similar physiognomy, in certain cases. Its
organs were also similar, though far more complex.
He communicated with the bugs as he could, but so very
limited, because those friends couldn't build thoughts nor had words to do
it.
But, why such
a difference between the two types of creatures? Someone
had blown in the nostrils of
the Man Angel, transmitting to him some
skills and exceptional feelings, beyond the instincts
and fanny of those fellows. Remarkable
fact was that at that moment, his understanding came
to life, through self-consciousness and the consciousness of the
one who had blown in his
nostrils the breath of living soul.
THE MOST
BEAUTIFUL ANGEL
The
Man Angel began to observe the animals behave in
different ways. Some disputing his surveillance
and friendship. Others, besides remembering his face, for imitation of his
gestures. Some, even repeating his speech. The memory was also notable in
some others. Then, he started to give names to those
friends, according the temperament and
aptitude of each.
It
was then that he realized something very special.
- They all have companions of the same species. I'm the only one here alone in the midst of all this joyful creatures. What will become of me so lonely?
- They all have companions of the same species. I'm the only one here alone in the midst of all this joyful creatures. What will become of me so lonely?
That
same person who had given him life, he made
the Man Angel fell into deep sleep. At that time, he
took part in one of his ribs and
covered again the place of the scar. With
that stem cell in his hands, he set
up a beautiful creature, at the same time so
similar and yet so different from her matrix.
The
Angel Man woke up and came across this wonderful
gift, apparently equal, but with unmistakable differences.
- Now, I see I'm in front of a person like me in flesh an bones. I'm going to call her woman, Ishá, because from man, Ish, was taken. We can now fulfill the order we received to fill and look after the Earth.
- Now, I see I'm in front of a person like me in flesh an bones. I'm going to call her woman, Ishá, because from man, Ish, was taken. We can now fulfill the order we received to fill and look after the Earth.
Our hero has created some interesting and even funny thoughts about his beautiful Angel.
- How pretty is my Angel in the world!
- I was the prototype and she the masterpiece.
- How must I treat my Angel?
- She was not taken from my feet, that I don´t crush her or be crushed by her. She was not taken from my head, not to dominate or be dominated by her. But she was taken from the left side of my chest, to love her and be loved by her.

A
beautiful kingdom had been created. He, strength. She, beauty. He, the protection. She, the protected. He,
love. She, the honor. But all that is
composed of a symbiosis of harmony and
reciprocity between the King and his Queen. All this goes ahead and
passes to princes and princesses, fruits of the
same beautiful love.
THE GREAT
TRAGEDY
Our
hero had already doubled around 18 times, to a few
hundred thousand copies, but he was not complete at
all. He was not meant to
be a robotic or captive as those irrational. To
this end, it was necessary to go through a proof
that elevated him to the status of voluntary and
conscious subject. An autonomous. Not an
automaton. For this, he was offered the opportunity to
make a choice between two lifestyles. This
right was what we today call a free will. He could choose between the two
styles of life and also the consequences of each of
them. So, he would become a real Angel Man.
As
a symbol of those options, in the garden of his
residence, two special trees were planted among all others. The
tree of life, standing for the Well and
Life and the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, standing for
the Bad and Death. One of those innocent little friends,
maybe the less noble of them
all, was sagaciously taken by another Angel, the Evil
one, like repeating the ventriloquist dummy,
contradicting the words of him who had already driven him out of
paradise most high. Such expulsion had
happened when he also had the opportunity to make a
choice similar to our hero.
- Is it true tyou are forbidden to
eat of every tree of the garden?
- No, not at all. We're free
to eat of every fruit of the garden. Only the fruit of the
tree of good and evil we mustn´t eat.
- Do you know why? Eating of this
fruit, you will have your eyes open to see both the
good and the evil, making you equal to the one
who gave the order to you. And that's all he doesn´t
want.
So
the woman was filled with curiosity and desire
to taste the fruit of that tree, harvested and ate it. She
didn´t forget to share it with her husband,
who also ate. They both remembered the order they
had received and experienced the pains of death at
once, so clearly prevented.
Sadness, shame
and fear invaded the heart, the mind and
spirit of the two. Spiritual
death was consummated. Shame and fear from whom
they had been presented with life, were the immediate
results of the bad choice.
-Clay! Where are you?
-I heard your voice in the garden and I got
scared and hid myself.
-Have you eaten from the tree of good and
evil?
-The woman you gave me gave me of the
tree, and I ate.
-What have you done, woman?
-The serpent deceived me, and I ate.
From now on, they
couldn´t receive the usual visit of their Benefactor and were
expelled from the garden, not to eat of the fruit of the
Tree of Life, rejected by them in the days of
innocence. If they ate it now, there would be no
hope for any recovery.
-I will put enmity between you and the
woman, between your seed and her seed. He will
crush your head, but you will just hurt his heel.
AT THE END OF THE
TUNNEL, A LIGHT
A very
special Light had already been presented when the Bad Angel heard his
sentence.
When the
Angel Man was expelled from Paradise, that same
light could be seen symbolically. So he does not extend his hand and do not eat of
the tree of life and live forever in his death. Thus,
our hero was not scorned on any time. On the contrary,
everything was done so that he could always look at that
light and he was refunded to his
condition of a perfect Angel Man.
DEATH
COMES HOME
Because of
that unfortunate choice, the man Angel suffered the
pain of a new kind of death within his own home. The
two children born after the fall had a serious disagreement. In
fact, there was no disagreement. There
was jealousy. The older brother presented
his offer for mere religious obligation and his gift remained on
the floor where he had placed it. He also
saw that the sheep of his brother had been accepted
and consumed. Enraged, he struck his
brother and killed him.
Death, premature or
not, is something that wasn't part of the Supreme
ideals for Angel man. The perfect plan
should be something similar to a cocoon that turns into a beautiful
Butterfly, flying through the air. However the
tragedy of death, as we know, is still very
much softer than the other proven by
our hero still in Eden. Not no use to repeat, If our
hero had stayed in the garden and eaten of the tree of
life, he would have been lost forever.
A NEW
BEGINNING
The
man Angel grew greatly in number and also
in wickedness, mainly in violence. Angelic figures
teamed up with the virgins, and produced a perverse
and violent generation. Hence, a huge flood was announced
and prepared for more than a hundred years. You can
then conclude that repentance, regeneration and happiness, and
not the punishment, were the real target of the long
process.
As our
hero didn't take his chance, the
avalanche became inevitable. If something wasn't done, life
on earth would become impossible, as impossible was already.
As the goal was not to extinct but preserve the Angel
Man, it was necessary to turn on that light at the end of the
tunnel again, what really happened. With the birth
of Seth to the first couple, one of the sons of the
same blessed Seth came on the scene.
That hope was Noah,
who by revelation has received its
name, Rest. This was the Angel Man responsible
for advertising and keep those who would believe in
the reality of the great scourge.
During a
hundred, maybe, one hundred and twenty years, the
righteous Noah built a
gigantic ship, all formatted according to the
instructions he received. It should be placed a pair
of every animal species, less the aquatic
and amphibian, of course. As for the people, they wouldn't
fit all in there, but we have to take into account two significant things. First, if people
believed in the flood, this wouldn't happen and they
wouldn't need to enter the big boat. Second, effectively the people did
not believed and asked for any shelter.
It's
easy to imagine, while listening to the crash of axes and hammers
and the rubbing of saws.
-Look up that insane
senile building that giant boat don't know what for. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!
-He himself is going to drown himself with
his wife and their children. Hahahahahaha!!
After
a century, because the infidelity of our hero, with all
that willing to remain in his depraved lifestyle
and violence, it came the announced flood. Forty
days of rain and the gushing of springs were
enough to flood the Earth and eliminate all
its living creatures.
Today, we
can still see all those impressions of what was
left by the waters of the great flood. High
mountains and valleys, sea shells in
their crests, superimposed layers of different and
distinct granites, fossils of trees, birds, fish, animals and
humans of different ages, oil composed of all those beings,
caves and canyons of rounded shapes, and much
more. All saying something very fast and
dynamic happened on our planet, without
which, even many billions of years couldn´t be enough to perform. Food in the mouth of fossilized animals shoulld not be overlooked. It speaks of a gigantic surprise.
BABEL and BABYLON
Now
that our hero had been saved from extinction, the
Earth was populated through the three sons of Noah and
their wives, since the old Noah and his wife did
not have any more children. Arose, then, a
strong and beautiful generation, until the same
Angel Man went back to think he could live by himself and be happy. He
forgot the order received to fill the Earth in order
to take care of it properly. This independent
generation leadership, hoping not spread by the blue
planet, architected build a tower so high
that reached the celestial vault, as if that
were possible.
-Hey! Courage! Let's
all together raise a tower as high as the blue of
the sky! No one can escape our eyes from above. We
will be always together and we will have a powerful
and indestructible empire!
The crazy
idea liked that no less fearless generation and put themselves
to work. It was then that it became apparent that the
Supreme architect was totally against any global empire at
the hands of the Angel Man. The land would have
to be looked after and ruled through nations by themselves.
So, communication interference was
made on those leaders and their workers, forcing the
tribes there represented to spread throughout the land. It
was the so-called confusion of languages, which
also gave its name to the place, Tower of Babel, Tower of confusion
or simply Babylon.
Remarkably,
that same generation may have been fixed in
different continents because in those years, the land was
divided, surely making it impossible, for many
centuries, new attempts to build global empires.
THE LOST TWINS
The generation of the Angel Man was still composed of very distinguished samples in the middle of other very nasty. From the family of Shem, one of the three sons of Noah, a noble was born. Abram, father exalted, who had his name changed to Abraham, father of Nations. He became a strategic element in the contemplation of that light at the end of the tunnel, long announced. So even though his name had been symbolically modified this Angel Man was so high character, that he came to obey an order to leave his land, with all he had, and then go to another faraway land, he would be presented yet. Humanly speaking, that Abraham was the father of two sons, Ishmael and Isaac, which in turn spawned two of the most illustrious peoples of the Earth, the Arab and the Israeli. Spiritually speaking, he became the father of the righteous of all nations.

Spiritually speaking, he became the father of the righteous of all nations.
Our
hero, largely, again veered to evil,
focusing particularly in the twin cities of Sodom and
Gomorrah. The evil arrived to such an
extent, that the Creator had no other way, but to put
an end to its inhabitants.
The
same Abraham interceded passionately by both cities in
an attempt to rid their children of possible injustice, notably the nephew
who lived there with his wife and two daughters.
Wickedness was
so great, that when the three celestial angels came there to
burn the cities up and liberate the noble family, the men
who had seen them in the square ran to the house of Lot
to rape those visitors, supposing they were men like
themselves.
What
is left of the memory of that evil and violent people, beyond
their own perversity, is the dead sea to what the twin
sisters were converted.
THE LIGHT SHINES
Remember
the great Abraham? His name has not been changed by
accident. He was chosen to be the father of many nations. Two thousand years
have passed since our encounter with him and his
nephew in Sodom in our last chapter. We now
have that light at the end of the tunnel plane of splendor. It was the Light that illuminates every
person who comes into the world. It was the
descendant of Abraham by foster line, since it was
born of the high as a New Man. Bringing the pre-existing quality, the
everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. He was
born and lived in predetermined cities. He did and
said things never realized someone
else could have performed. Experienced trial and
sentencing as expected. He was betrayed and executed as
designed. Resurrected as promised and promised to
return for the final judgment of
the angelic humanity.
The
resurrection became the central theme of the new Adam´s
followers. There have been efforts
to deny any real foundation in
the unprecedented event. There was bribery of the
guards of the Tomb. There was no permission for witness
statements. There was execution of those who refused to
shut up. Some of the witnesses have been with him in the space
of forty days between his resurrection and returning
to his Father.
The
man God died for all, but no one would die for
him as a corpse. They were absolutely sure and the Redeemer was
worth more than their lives. So, they lived and died for him
as he lived and died for them.
Here
some of the most remarkable dialogues with God Man.
-A Prince: Master. How
can a person be born again?
-God Man:... God so loved the world that he
gave his only son. That whosoever believeth in him should not
perish but have eternal life.
-God Man: what people say about me?
-Disciples: You are the Anointed, the Son
of the living God.
-God Man:... Upon this rock I will build my church.
-Samaritan
woman: are you greater
than our father Jacob, who gave us this well having
drunk himself from him?
-God Man: Whoever drinks of this
water will be thirsty. But the one who drinks the
water I give him will never be thirst any more.
-Opponents: Lord. This woman
should be stoned.
-God Man: The one who is without sin, cast
the first stone.
-God Man:... Where are your accusers? No
one condemned you?
-The Woman: Nobody, Lord.
-God Man: Neither do I condemn you. Go
and sin no more.
-Opponents: We are sons of
Abraham and never been slaves of anyone. How do
you say, you shall be free?
-God Man: You shall know the truth and the
truth shall make you free... If the Child free you, you shall
be really free .
-Opponents: Why haven't you brought him?
-Guards: Never a man spoke like this
man.
-God Man: Your brother Lazarus will
resurrect.
-Marta: I know that he will be
resurrected at the last day.
-God Man: I am the resurrection and the
life. Whoever believes in me, even if he die he will
live. And whoever lives and believes in me shall never
die. Do you believe that?
-Thomas: Lord ... How can we
know the way?
-God Man: I am the way, the truth and the life. No
one comes to the Father except by me.
-Philip: Lord. Shows us the Father. That's
all we want.
-God Man:... I'm a long time with you, and still do
not know me, Philip? Who saw me, saw the Father. How do you
say, show us the Father?
Governor: What is the truth?
-God Man: total
silence.
King: Did ask
him many questions, as well.
-God Man: Nothing replied.
(This silence is
something more than curious. someone pointed out that in Latin
letters, language of the trial, Quid est veritas?, What is the
truth?, are the same letters with which the God Man would
be responding, in silence, to the Governor, Vir qui ad te est, the Man
who stands before you.)
-Thief: Lord. Remember me when you come into
your Kingdom!
-God Man: …Even today you will be with me in Paradise.
17 CENTURIES LATER
Jump now to the seventeen century and
see the Angel Man still embroiled in their own net, in
the form of humanism, rationalism, Illuminism,
materialism, and other ISMs he created.
One declares
that a species of Superman is on the way.
One declares
that everything you can't assimilate by the
mind doesn't deserve credit.
One declares
that everything came from certain Monads or any
other array.
One declares
that the Scripture would disappear in 50 years.
One declares
that, before the greatness of the divine deeds, he was like
a child playing with the little shells of the sea.
One declares that
religion is the opium of the people
One declares
that everything came from nothing or from itself since some billion years.
And
that's how we passed by World War One, 1914 to 1919, World
War Two, 1939 to1944, and by the cold war, waving to us
still today. Our hero continues promoting
and suffering constant local wars, extreme
poverty, hunger, disease and epidemics.
Religious
intolerance of our hero puns freedom with death, even today.
Personal violence robs peace from
the individual, the right to come and go even to work and school, the
right to leisure and tourism and the sacred
right to live.
All
this because the Light of the World is rejected in great
extent of the globe, where the Angel Man puts himself in
place of its Creator, wanting to govern by himelf without
him.
ICARUS´ WINGS
ICARUS´ WINGS
Alike his Emanuel,
Alike a very angel,
So friend of the demons,
To the neighbors so equal.

Though so far from his El,
He created Icarus´ wings.

He fell down in nonsense,
He fell down like stars,

He fell down from light.
FLYING LIKE AN ANGEL
Unfair would
be ignore the fabulous participation of large copies of
our hero Angel Man in many areas of human
life during those three centuries commented above.
Sacred and
classical music had its splendor and still fascinates us today like it
was, and being in fact, a true anteroom of
eternity.
What
to say about Literature, Painting, Sculpture and Architecture?
In the 20th
century, we must not forget the great industrial, scientific and
technological progress achieved by the hands of our
hero. Just look at the car, the
train, the Telegraph, the telephone, the radio
transmitter, the plane, the television, the computer,
the internet, the great progress of medicine, recent space achievements and
many other advances.
Each of
these fine arts, discoveries and achievements of all time, and also at
the beginning of this 21st century, shows a fingerprint of
the creative hands and makes you
feel the breath blown into the nostrils of our
hero Angel Man.
A GLORIOUS
FUTURE
Today, three or
more billions of copies of our hero possess excellent
qualities. They are fighting for the construction of a better
world, but fail to reach its target, because, despite their
merits, they are still trying to live far from their Autor.
They are also fighting a great war against other three billion or
more evil and ambitious samples,
which endanger the peace and security in the entire beautiful blue
planet.
The
lack of solution to the major problems of humanity is
the lack of love for neighbor, which will only be known in
the love of God Man. Here is the only hope for
a truly happy end to our hero, who, far
from coming back to the sad category of a loser, he can
return to his fabulous lost paradise more than a winner
.
.
FLYING ALWAYS
O, Angel
Man. Keep arising to new fabulous flights towards
the infinite. But, know you will never come to a happy end, unless you let
yourself be rocked by the one who gave you wisdom and
conquers!
LAST FLIGHT
Open your
wings, o, Angel Man. Arise now to your
ultimate flight. Your adamic wings are returning to
clay. Your immortal breath is coming back to the One who
blew in your nostrils the gift of eternal life.
