Chapter 13 (Excerpt)
“I am Alpha and Omega...beginning and the end...
“I know thy many sins against man and against my children of Israel. It shall be that thou must wander this Earth, never calling home a place amongst man, for you reside in that place that lieth between Heavenly Host and mortal...part of each, though of neither thou shall ever be. That is my Father’s edict, Egyptian.
“The first covenant of the Lord Father hath been broken and a new covenant set forth, for man hath loosed the children of the serpent upon the Earth, who now waits in the storm for thee, though thou must flee from her sight and touch.
“Bend thy knee before the Lord thy God, Egyptian! I reveal to thee that which is unknown to all save the Lamb, the Ghost and the Father...and to the Beautiful One who was first to rise from the ether of time.
***
Thus sayeth the Lamb of God:
In the beginning...before the Lord thy Father created the Heavens and the first Earth...before suns and great orbs were cast into motion, there was nothing save we.
In the darkness, there was only the Lamb, the Lord Father and that which is the Father’s living light...the Holy Ghost. We are Alpha and Omega, for we have always been and forever shall always be...amen!
Life we called forth from the darkness, and It became the first and most brilliant of all shining stars, for It was firstborn. And with its birth came rock and ice, and a fire so great that it shall burn for all eternity and have no end. So perfect it was that the Lord Father commanded that it shall be called Lucifer—Morning Star and first life born—so sayeth the Lord Father.
And the Lord Father looked upon what was created by word alone and saw that it was good.
Whilst all that was brought forth from nothingness began to settle, cool and multiply, Lucifer worshipped the Lord Father with a song that is forever beyond compare. And we—all of us—bore witness to time, for never hath there been such a thing as time until the birth of Lucifer—the Morning Star. As time aged and came to be called ancient, we saw what we brought out of the ether become new suns and new moons and new orbs of air and mass, which settled throughout what had forever been nothing.
And the Lord Father looked upon these creations and saw that it was good.
At the age Lucifer was no longer a child, but was now as time—ancient to all but I, the Ghost and the Lord Father, Lucifer spoke of loneliness, for Lucifer was not and could never be as We, but that which is inimitable unto itself. The Lord Father listened and called forth for Lucifer others such as It was. And as they rose from the ether, Lucifer called and named each and every one that were innumerable, and into their truthful place Lucifer put them all.
Dominions...
...Powers...
...Virtues...
...Ophanim...
...Orders...
...Cherubim...
...Seraphim...
...Archangels...
...and Angels...
And thus was born the Hosts of the Heavens of the Lord Father...amen.
Since their birth, the Heavenly Host hath sung ceaselessly in marvel at the might of the Father and the living force—the Holy Ghost, for they and I are as one. From nothingness the Heavenly Host came and knoweth no greater force than the Lord Father, whose living Ghost is of horrifying power and unending love.
In awe of the Lord Father’s wonders, the angel Metatron went down into the first Earth and gathered precious gold and fashioned it into a tome. With hands of Celestial might, Metatron inscribed each and every song chanted by the Heavenly Host who bore witness to the Lord Father’s creation of the first earth.
In this most holy Book of Creation was inscribed songs of everything that hath ever come from the ether. Now sealed with the mark of Metatron, the golden Book of Creation bore the words of the Lord Father’s force. Though what could not be written or chanted was the Gift of Life, for only the Lord Father and Ghost may give life where there was not life before.
Lucifer, ever faithful and beloved by the Lord Father, knew these chant songs of Metatron could control and form all that had been created. But of all the power and dominion given to Lucifer, to bring forth something from nothing and give life was denied.
And never hath Lucifer been denied.
Lucifer beseeched the Lord Father for the Words of Life, so that It too may create the holiest of holies. And for the first time since there was a thing such as time, and Lucifer knew life, Lucifer was denied.
Lucifer thus gave birth to anger and malice, and fled to this first Earth and fashioned jealousy. Having borne witness to the rise of the Heavenly Host, Lucifer knew them as a father knows thy sons and mothers know thy daughters, and beguiled Metatron and took the Book of Creation. To those of the Heavenly Host, Lucifer taught them to chant the songs from the book and mold all that was already created.
Lucifer chanted unto the creatures of the first earth and changed them from what the Lord Father had meant them to be. Monsters of great height and savagery they became. The reign of monsters Lucifer had formed held sway for many ages.
Sickened by what they beheld, half of the Holy Host who once called the first earth home, fled to the presence of the Lord Father and told of the abominations that were brought forth and walked the land. Though in the sight of Lucifer, such monsters were of beauty and boastfulness. And again Lucifer came before the throne of the Lord Father, but did not beseech the Creator for knowledge or to worship, but to take pride in what It had wrought upon the first earth.
And Lucifer said...
“Are my creatures not beautiful, my Father? I—who am first born and most beloved of all the Heavenly Host hath done that which thou sayeth cannot be done. But look, Father! I have taken that which you gave life and by my own hands fashioned them into images of my own creation. At last Father, I too am as thee.”
Lucifer sought to place a throne beside the Almighty. The Lord Father grew angry, for the Lord Father is a jealous Father and the only Lord Father. Lucifer was banished from the presence of the Ghost and Lord Father. The Lord Father’s voice thus rose up and above all that ever existed...suns roared and died with great thirst, and into their mouths swallowed many Earths. And all of creation was afraid, for the Holy Ghost had been impugned.
“We alone are Alpha and Omega!”
