Clearer proofs, in the discovery of secrets, and in the investigation of the hidden causes of things, being afforded by trustworthy experiments and by demonstrated arguments, than by the probable guesses and opinions of the ordinary professors of philosophy: so, therefore, that the noble substance of that great magnet, our common mother (the earth), hitherto quite unknown, and the conspicuous and exalted powers of this our globe, may be the better understood, we have proposed to begin with...

After completing my first two books, I decided to put the four Gospels into a poem format as well, comparing the Old Testament predictions of the coming Messiah and how they were all fulfilled through Jesus Christ. This book also explores the parables of Jesus and how the four Gospels are in perfect harmony with each other. I hope the reader will be drawn closer to the Lord as Jesus is coming back soon!

After completing my first book, The Holy Scriptures Book of Poems, I was inspired to write another book. Initially, I thought of trying to write several children stories of the more known Bible characters. I also wanted to add more detail and depth to the stories. After I completed the stories of the Bible characters I had set out to write about, I had the idea to put them all together in one book. That is how this book came to be. I hope you enjoy it.

Back in the late 1980s, I had the idea to write a poem about the Book of Revelation. After writing that poem, I thought to myself, "What if I could write the entire Bible in an easier-to-read-poem format?" That had never been done before, so I accepted the challenge. After about nine years of writing and rhyming, it finally came into being. I hope people will find this labor of love as an inspiration to read and learn from the Bible.
