An Epic Trilogy Analysis

Improved Essays
The bible has a version called epic trilogy which basically means that there are three versions of the bible. Epic as a trilogy is defined as “a multi-layered, interconnected love story, set in the midst of a life-and-death battle for the heart, fought in both a spiritual and physical world”. I always thought the bible as we know it was the only bible which starts with Genesis to Revelation is just the middle of the complete story of the bible there is a whole story line that come before and after. There are two other volumes that still needs to be written as a complete book and they are volume one and volume three.

Even though it has not been written as a complete book there several passages in the bible that piece together this version. This volume begins with spiritual kingdom and eternal beginning with God being the main character of the story and the author of story as well. Proverbs 8:23 talks about eternity it states that “I was appointed from eternity, from the beginning, before the world began”. The main character in version one of the trilogy is God and His character is described as the trinity. God the father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit. These three characters are the same person God, but each role is very different and unique. The kingdom expanded when He created angels. An angel named Lucifer challenged God and wanted to be like God so he was thrown out the kingdom of God and he became Satan. Isaiah 14:12 “How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!” Throughout all versions God is seen as the main character, spirit and human, lover, judge and He loves His creations dearly that He fought, and died for them in order to save mankind from all their …show more content…
In this version Christ returns for His bride and make all things new. Revelation 22: 7 "Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy in this book." The righteous gets eternal life in heaven but the sinners get eternal punishment. Matthew 25:46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.” The bible as epic trilogy concludes with the king and his spotless bride living happily ever

    The Old Testament makes promises and the New Testament fulfills the promises. For example, Isaiah promises a Messiah and the New Testament fulfills the promise in Jesus Christ. The Old Testament also promises that Jesus will be born of a virgin, which is fulfilled in the New Testament (Encountering the New Testament, Chapter 1, pp. 20-22). Both testaments point to an afterlife where those who know God will rest in Heaven, but those who don’t will face God’s judgement in Hell or the Lake of Fire (21).…

    “Classical Fantasy” choreographed by Jerry Opdenaker, restaged and danced by Ciera Fielding, was a beautifully done piece because of it’s nod to classical ballet. The reference to classical ballet was due to both the musical choice of a composed piece lacking lyrics, and purely instrumental, as well as her outfit that consisted of a tutu, her ballet shoes with the boxed toe to allow her to go fully on point, and lastly due to her perfection of the aplomb. In this piece Ms. Fielding used indirect space by taking command of the entire floor as she pirouetted from each space to transition into the next move. While her body was very upright, and she often spun on toe, her sense of weight was light weight. It was almost like she was floating gracefully across the stage, which created a fluid effect to her sudden sense of time.…
