New Men From Old
by gonzodave coulon Dear Reader, A preview from the opening page of my unpublished trilogy reads: _____________________ Justification is the divine announcement of saving faith A heavenly child has been born. God created the original fraternal twins, Eve from Adam. God created the unique maternal twin, Christ from the virgin stock of Adam. God gives man the twin works In the gospel of grace For the propagation of a new child of heaven. The seed principle is conceived In life from death, Salvation out of forgiveness. Which has been oddly divided and unforgivably separated in the dark heart of a barren negative gospel of sin that has aborted divine imputations that define, and result in, the quickened moment of conception from eternal death into eternal life. The rightful claims of the gospel of the grace of God will expose this heart of darkness. The circle is a symbol of unity and the never-ending. Twin intersecting arcs are the Ichthys. God has freed Himself from judgment to return to Eden and create new heavenly men from condemned earthly men. ________________________ Going up the river was like traveling back to the earliest beginnings of the world, when vegetation rioted on the earth and the big trees were kings. ... The air was warm, thick, heavy, sluggish ... The long stretches of the waterway ran on, deserted, into the gloom of overshadowed distances. On silvery sand-banks, hippos and alligators sunned themselves side by side. I turned to the wilderness really, not to Mr. Kurtz, who, I was ready to admit, was as good as buried. And for the moment it seemed to me as if I was buried in a vast grave full of unspeakable secrets. I felt an intolerable weight oppressing my breast, the smell of the damp earth, the unseen presence of victorious corruption, the darkness of an impenetrable night. The Heart of Darkness, Joseph Conrad _________________________________ My regards in Christ Jesus, gonzodave Visit my pages @ http://www.webook.com/member/gonzodave http://www.koinoniaofgrace.com http://members.christiansunite.com/members/blog/gonzodave htttp://stores.lulu.com/gonzodave Copyright 2007-2008 by David Coulon.
