PREFACE

It is no mean feat that those who love to detract from the deity of our configuration, the God of our creation, the Lord of our redemption, bypass entirely that one Being whose wisdom is both

bullet multiple  and profound,
 
bullet inexorable and patient,
 
bullet outwitting all the old contemptibles that infest the flesh of man,
enabling deliverance from all his weaknesses,
when wisdom like lightning purges his soul and anoints his heart.

It is a testimony to the scope of this divine creation that in talking in the field of their Creator, in masses, they so frequently ignore what they are talking about, and instead talk about their own thoughts, as if these and not God were their progenitor, basis and meaning, rather than the instituted looking glass. It is one so made that it can in validity look both at itself and its Maker,
when it has a mind so  to do, and when like so many of man's own creations, it is enabled.
Like them, it is potent but has to be handled aright.

What a prodigy is this so contemptuously and contemptibly distortive, sportive spirit of man, dismissive or derogatory of things spiritual while using them every moment of the day, even while impugning God with arrogance, assailing Him with impudence or seeking to leach Him out by an artful indifference!

Thus in creation, while the artifices of concept and command, conjoined so that they may even be exhumed from the DNA and the material universe alike, so that they might be stated and stipulated even by the very mind of man, are a profound communicative feat in a double dimension. Firstly, it is so in the One who spoke us into existence, by using communication power to execute His will, and left the material part in DNA as testimony and continuing and programmatic command alike. Yet there is more. Yes, more even than this stares us in the face.

There is, secondly,  the vitality of life, the practicality of wisdom for man, the intensive reconstruction for his spirit, called regeneration, the prodigious realism that faces the worst and provides the best, together with the cost of it, called redemption, and the divine perspicuity which knows all, sees all and confused at nothing, produces as if from a divine palette, the whole exuberance of creation. Misled, this bedevils man, for so profound is  the image of God in man, that it allows both the riotous imagination of people as if gods in their delusion, who are but men, and scope for the repentance which knocks with faith on the doors of reality, aspiring only to be numbered amongst the redeemed. Thus you have ambassadors for Christ, the crux of all content and contentment, in this world before it goes, and ambassadors for evil, seeking to prolong the mess as masses writhe in their defiled leadership and incalculable defiance.

Such blessed heights, depths and dimensions require attention and here we give it.
