Volume 1
Chronicles of a Lost World
Chapter 1
"In the Beginning"
The ages and times of the beginnings of this story are unknown, but battles rage daily between the *Holliards and the forsaken cursed race of the *Belliarhadus.
It all started millions of years ago when the leader of the Belliarhadus, Lucifer, felled from the grace of his *Lord and King by seeking to replace Him and become king in His stead. He was the most favored of the King’s officials and everything in the kingdom was entrusted to his hands.
“I have indeed gained the favor of my Lord and have become his most trusted official, but the time has come for me to take over!”
The rebellious official inspired many of the soldiers and officials in the kingdom to “seek for a better ruling” and was actually successful in mustering one third of all of the kingdom’s hosts to his cause, even though his cause had no solid foundation but to overthrow Him who had given him all and beyond, Him who had bestowed grace upon grace and blessing upon blessing over him. It was indeed a greedy and evil cause that drove him to summon a massive retaliation against the Lord of lords and the King of kings.
*Holliards: Referring to the people that have accepted the Lord’s gift and have received salvation and eternal life. These are in a constant fight against the devil but have the Lord’s strength always.
* Belliarhadus: Referring to the devil and his demons.
*Lord: Referring to our God and Lord.
“I am Lucifer the morning star, and I have summoned you all in this place today to address an issue that is now very well known among you. The tyrant must be overthrown. The manipulator of our lives must step down or be killed! Think about your future. He has done nothing but to blind you from the perils of your allegiance to Him. He has made you live in a world of fantasy! Alas! Do you not see? Open thine eyes my fellow compatriots! Open thine souls and swear your allegiance to me! It is indeed not out of selfish pride or greed that I beg for your allegiance, but because I care about you. I am you! And you shall be me! I am greater than the King! *I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High!" *(Isaiah 14:13).
“We will follow you to death, oh king Lucifer!”
“Hail the king! Hail the great Lucifer!”
And so in a thundering awe the host of soldiers and officials bowed low and paid homage to the risen infernal king that would soon be cast down to Earth.
“My Lord and King”
“I am aware of what has befallen my Kingdom, but heed my words now, oh faithful *Gabriel, summon *Michael to my presence.”
*Gabriel: an archangel who is one of God’s most trusted messengers.
*Michael: an archangel who is generally presented in the Bible as the field commander of the Army of God.
“Right away my Lord.”
And so Michael, the Kingdom’s armies Chief General was summoned to the Lord’s presence.
“My wondrous and hallowed Lord, what is thy bidding?”
“Surround Lucifer armies and seize him, you must bring him before Me unharmed. This rebellion shall be dealt with immediately!”
And so the Chief General flew away and gathered his armies to march against Lucifer and seize him.
“We have a new task to be done my brethren. It comes directly from the Lord.”
As soon as everyone heard The Name they bowed down towards His throne and heeded Michael’s words.
“The Righteous Judge has decreed an ultimatum against Lucifer, for as you might already know, he has already fallen from grace.”
“What shall become of him my general?”
“The Lord shall decide what his fate will be. For now we must set out and surround his army in the lands of *Sheolis, for he has escaped…but won’t escape the Lord’s just hand! Brethren! Unsheathe thine swords! Open thine wings and prepare for war!”
*Sheolis: referring to Sheol. is the common destination of both the righteous and the unrighteous dead, as recounted in Ecclesiastes and Job.
And so, Michael’s army set out in a mighty but silent and swift flight towards the now dark lands of Sheolis.
“Great king! Michael approaches!”
“Fear not my brave ones! We shall send him back with his wings in his mouth! Muster the armies! Set out! Forth Belliarhadus!”
With the sound of the mighty war horn the now evil but still shining armies of Lucifer flew away to meet the armies of the King.
“I shall raise a hand against you not, oh fallen Lucifer, I have been commanded to seize you and your evil armies to stand judgment before the Creator of heaven and earth! Stand down!”
“The mighty archangel Michael…I know what you are here for, come and get me you coward! You are just a pitiful slave He calls “soldier” ha! What do you know about war? You have your share Michael, why don’t you give a soldier a break!? Go back to your harp!”
“I shall not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against you, the Lord rebuke you!” (Jude 1:9)
And saying this Michael lifted his sword and summoned the Lord’s help, and Lucifer fell down pale and weakened, but his armies retaliated against Michael’s armies, and were repressed but not killed, for they had to be brought to the Lord’s throne of judgment.
Lucifer’ rebellion had been destroyed, and Lucifer now entered the most terrifying sight of his life. There were great peals of thunder, a sky darker than the night and a throne in the middle of the black clouds glorious as ever before, but terrifying of sight.
Lucifer’ pride had been crushed. He now bowed his head low and dared not lift it up, he fell on his knees shaking wildly and without control, for a great fear now overtook his whole being.
Then a thunder-like voice flashed throughout the Kingdom: “Lucifer! *The grave below is all astir to meet you at your coming; it rouses the spirits of the departed to greet you— All your pomp has been brought down to the grave, along with the noise of your harps; maggots are spread out beneath you and worms cover you!” *(Isaiah 14:9 and 11).
“What had I not given over to you? What was not within your hands from my kingdom? What else did you craved for that was not within this place? What could you have possibly seen evil in that you lusted for!? This is my decree to you:
*You are brought down to the grave, to the depths of the pit.
Those who see you stare at you, they ponder your fate: "Is this the man who shook the earth and made kingdoms tremble,
the man who made the world a desert, who overthrew its cities and would not let his captives go home?"
All the kings of the nations lie in state, each in his own tomb.
But you are cast out of your tomb like a rejected branch; you are covered with the slain, with those pierced by the sword, those who descend to the stones of the pit. Like a corpse trampled underfoot,
you will not join them in burial, for you have destroyed your land and killed your people. The offspring of the wicked will never be mentioned again.” *(Isaiah 14: 15-20)
“From now on thou shalt be called Satan, the father of all lies and the prince of the power of the air!”
Immediately, the skies trembled and the foundations of the heavens were shaken at the power of thunders and darkness when Lucifer and his army, in their internal agony, started feeling something inside burning their bodies, and behold that as they inspected their bodies that dark flames came out from inside of them and started consuming them completely; their handsome features blotted away and their screams welcoming their new infernal voices and bodies. Lastly, their wings burned out and thus every single creature in the kingdom bowed their heads in shame for what had befallen Lucifer and his army. The infernal king had now an appearance of death and horror, and his position taken away from him as he adopted his new shape along with his army.
Suddenly, the clouds beneath Lucifer and his army started fading away and they fell from the skies toward the Earth. The Lord Himself and His Kingdom watched in horror as Lucifer fell like a shooting star towards Earth:
“How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!” (Isaiah 14: 12)
Chapter 2
“The Prince Of The Power Of The Air”
The sinister king and his army falling on Earth looked like a rain of fire and blood. The Earth was ordered and full of life when Lucifer and his armies fell on Earth, destroying and disordering the whole Earth and making it hollow and infernal-like. Lucifer landed on Earth and looked upon the skies and cursed the Lord. Lucifer now contemplated his new appearance and the dejected hosts by his side. They were beginning to plot against Lucifer, but he realized their intentions and spoke to them again, not with his angelical and soft voice, but with his new harsh, raspy and demonic voice:
“Heed my words now, oh brethren! It is clear that the Maker is not the just ruler we have always thought he is; he is a deceiver and thus has misled all in His Kingdom! I wanted this not! All I ever desired was to be greater than the Lord! And I am! And so will you!”
“You deceived us Lucifer! The Lord was fair and dealt with your rebellion justly…there is no redemption now that we can reach again! We are condemned to the lake of fire! Because of you!”
“Listen to me now you maggots! The Lord gave you to me! You are mine! And you shall go to the lake of fire with me! There is no escape from that now! Behold the Earth is ours!”
But the Spirit of God came down to Earth and moved upon the face of the waters, forcing Lucifer to withdraw with his armies to a more remote place on Earth.
*In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. *(Genesis 1: 1-3)
And the light was great and holy, so Lucifer was forced to hide with his armies and wait upon the mercy of God, for he was greatly afraid again, but stubborn and willing to “foil” God’s Plan.
*And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. *Genesis 1: 4-31.
*Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. *Genesis 2: 1:17.
Then the Lord realized that man was really alone, so he decided to create the animals and give them over to Adam so he could name all of them. But Adam’s longing for company was not fulfilled, and so the Lord had Adam fall into a really deep sleep, took one of his ribs and created woman.
And thus God, the King, created man in His likeness and He walked with Adam around the garden as true friends, and lived in peace and harmony with all that was in the Earth.
“You bring gladness to my heart Adam, behold I have set everything before you, everything in this world that you might be lord over it and fill it.”
“Great honor is this my King, that you should consider me worthy of bestowing this amazing grace on me and my wife.”
“I am the Lord of everything, but I shall appoint you lord of this earth. Everything is in your hands and you may eat from anything in this Earth but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for the day a single bite of that fruit enters thine mouth…thou shalt certainly die.”
Lucifer addressed his army once more: “Listen to me you maggots! Behold that the Lord has created everything and has put man in charge of everything…well now, let us foil His plan now shall we? Let us reclaim Earth to ourselves! I shall demonstrate the Lord how weak these humans are!”
Chapter 3
Deceit: the fall of man and Earth’s doom
And so Lucifer transformed himself into a dreadful snake and surrounded the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Eve found herself walking in the garden alone.
“Well, well, won’t you open thine eyes my child?”
“To what should I open my eyes to?”
“Has the Lord really told you not to eat from this tree? As always, he seeks to rob others of improvement! How selfish and childish of Him!”
“What are you talking about? The Lord has given us everything but this tree, for he has strictly warned us that the day we eat from this tree we shall certainly perish.”
Lucifer went down from the tree and now surrounded Eve’s body and talked to her with such a tempting and commanding voice:
“Has he now? This is indeed rich! Thou shalt be like God! If you eat from this tree thou shall know good from evil and will develop your minds! Surely you won’t reject such power within your hands…think about your future…Eve…mother of nations…think about them and not really about yourself. Ye shall be a wise and beautiful ruler, the queen of the world at the side of your husband! Alas! Do you not see? The Lord does not want all this for you, he wants you to conform…but you don’t want to conform now do you?”
Eve fell into some sort of spell that had focused her on achieving all these dreams, thus forsaking the Lord and accepting the lies Lucifer spoke to her about the King. Lucifer made Eve eat from the fruit of the forbidden tree, and as soon as she ate it she felt honey in her mouth but poison in her stomach.
“Surely you shan’t keep this great revelation from your husband, why don’t you fetch him right away?”
“Indeed I must.”
And Eve went and called her husband and gave him from the fruit of the forbidden tree.
“But the Lord has strictly forbidden us to eat from this tree.”
“My lord, surely the great King wishes to deceive us and hinder us from many blessings, including knowledge of good and evil.”
“But there is no evil in what the Lord’s hand has made, His creation is absolutely perfect.”
“I have found in the tree a snake that is wiser than God himself.”
“Mind your mouth woman! You shan’t speak in such manner against your Creator!”
“Oh Adam, Adam, art thou really willing to reject such a gift from me?”
“Who are you?”
“I am the true God! Think about your family’s future and eat from this tree right away! Don’t be a fool Adam!”
And thus Adam was cornered and finally gave in, knowing that what he was doing was wrong and that Satan was trying to deceive him as well. Adam saw his wife Eve and realized she was naked and likewise Eve saw her husband Adam and saw his nakedness and both of them felt shame for the first time and they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Suddenly, the snake that deceived both Adam and Eve seemed to grow bigger and its appearance started to change. The snake started transforming, and as it did the skies grew red as blood and the infernal hosts arose from the ground and surrounded Adam and Eve, laughing and grinning diabolically.
“Now, man “created in the likeness of God the King,” thou shalt surely die!”
All of the infernal hosts surrounded the humans but left a circle in the middle in which Lucifer could walk and claim his “victory” over God’s creation.
“I shalt rip thine hearts and feast on them! Thine souls are now mine!”
It was indeed a horrifying sight to see Lucifer transformed so much. He was once an angel who resembled the beauty of God, now he was a monster and more than a monster someone whom no one would ever wish to encounter. Adam and Eve’s fear grew exceedingly great and could feel how the ground beneath them grew hotter and hotter and also how all the Earth was covered in flames. The flames were twenty foot tall and there was no light. A dense darkness that can be felt covered the face of the Earth. The Belliarhadus army had horrific faces and all you could see in them was grief, death, pain and suffering, a torture beyond a human’s bearing. Their foul and hot breath vexed Adam and Eve’s noses. Thousands of creeping Belliarhadus went after the humans and tried to fasten themselves to them. Death was everywhere, but there in the midst stood Satan, savoring his “victory” over God.
“’Tis the end for you…Adam, son of God.”
Lucifer’s hosts scrammed as they saw the heavens grow incredibly white and as they saw the flames diminish Lucifer commanded them to go back. Lucifer transformed himself back into the snake and roamed around seeking a hiding place, but finding none before the glorious light of the Lord God. The flames that had covered the Earth seemed to have had no effect on Earth whatsoever. What Adam and Eve saw was not from the human world, but from the spiritual world. Their eyes were now open to the beginning of the spiritual warfare that would take place on Earth until the return of the Son of God, Jesus Christ.
The Lord himself had descended on Earth and sought for Adam. He already knew what had transpired.
*Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you?"
He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."
And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?" *Genesis 3: 8-11.
The sight of the Lord in the garden was both terrifying and glorious. But Adam knew what he had done and so his heart sunk within himself and he refused to accept his responsibility. The skies grew dark and peals of thunder and grumbling answered the Lord’s wrath.
*The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it. *Genesis 3: 12.
The Lord saw through Adam and he felt it. He felt a sharp double-edged sword piercing his heart and his mind. Adam bowed low with his face on the ground with shame.
*Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate." *Genesis 3: 13.
Again, the Lord saw through Eve’s thoughts and as she felt his Sword piercing her heart and her mind, she joined her husband and bowed low without looking at the Lord.
“It’s your fault Addy! You have already punished me Lord! I have nothing with You anymore!”-said Satan.
*So the LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, "Cursed are you above all the livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life.
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; * he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel." *Genesis 3: 14-15. *Reference to the death of Christ and his victory over Satan forever in the cross.
And the Lord also saw through Satan, and as He glanced at him, Satan fell on his knees screaming loud and with a great and horrifying exclamation of pain and suffering.
“Stop it Lord! It burns! It burns! Curse you! Curse you Lord! Your Son will die! And don’t you dare bringing him back! I will summon my power and bring Him down!”
The Lord took no heed of what Satan said, for He knew that the devil had no more power than that which He had given him to serve His purpose. Jesus Christ would die for our sins later on, but would rise and He did rose from the dead and so destroyed Satan forever.
*To the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you."
To Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it,' "Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return." *Genesis 3: 16-19.
The Lord’s judgment weighed tremendously great on man’s shoulders. *“The man has now become like one of *us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever." *Genesis 3: 22. *The use of the word “us” refers to the Divine Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. They are not three different “gods” but they are one and the same.
“Since you have rejected me, oh Adam, I shall ban your entrance to this garden and prevent you from reaching the tree of life, for I have certainly given free will to thee, but what you have done will greatly affect this world until I fulfill my Plan of Redemption for the world.”
Suddenly cherubim came down from heaven and stood in the entrance of the Garden of Eden.
“Thou have now fallen from grace. Thou must leave this place and come back to it no more.”
The cherubim, terrifying in sight and wielding a sword expelled Adam and Eve from the garden. A flashing mighty sword stood in the entrance to the tree of life and guarded it.
Chapter 4
The king of the world
After Adam came out of the garden, Satan met him in their wandering, summoning to himself the same infernal background he had used before.
“I cannot kill you, but the world now belongs to me. Hand over the keys of this world.”
“But, the Lord entrusted me every single creature in this world. You deceived us! You claimed that we were going to receive that marvelous gift!”
“Well now, I am the prince of darkness, the father of all lies! You paid heed to my words and fell from the Lord’s grace, just as I did. But now the time has come for me to become the ruler of this world and reign over you!”
“I believe in the Lord’s mercy, he would have already killed us for sure. But he has allowed us to live on and multiply.”
“Stop your rubbish and obey your new king!”
Adam refused to obey Satan, but Satan’s hand took the form of a sharp inflamed sword and pierced Adam’s chest without making him bleed or even piercing his flesh. Satan extracted the keys of the Earth as he started laughing with a victorious and evil laughter. From the ground a black and horrific throne surfaced and the newborn infernal king sat on his throne. Adam and Eve were forced to witness the ceremony.
“Hail the true king from whom all blessings come from!”
An infernal praise resounded throughout all the Earth as the vast host of demons praised their new king.
A mysterious and strong Belliarhad came forth and held a black crown with maggots in it that rested upon a thorny platform. This Belliarhad, known as Vincent, came walking slowly towards Lucifer and all the demons at each side bowed low before the crown. Vincent finally reached the king’s throne and Lucifer came down and kneeled to receive his new position as the governor of the world. The crown was set and Lucifer’s appearance grew more authoritarian. A black, rotten king had risen.
“Let this be a day you remember my slaves! Today I have defeated God! I am God now! And thou shalt bow to me! Curse the King! Curse Him and his Plan! Let us reclaim what was stolen from us by that deceiver!”
A thunderous hail came from all the hosts of the Earth and as Satan turned to look at Adam the background disappeared, but Adam had a big and red mark that had burned his chest. It was no dream; it was more like a living nightmare.
