Description

I have used here a text from a time-honoured version of the New Testament scripture in the Christian Bible - the first verse of the Gospel according to Saint John -against a collage background of an interpretation of the Big Bang [theory of the] creation of the Universe. While this is presented only in a metaphorical way, I have chosen to show it as a kind of solar explosion. While the general image is abstract in nature, some iconography may be found. 'The Word' is most often thought of in Christian theology as Jesus Christ in that he is thought to have the same essence as God the Father along with the Holy Spirit, who was there at the beginning of Creation.He said of himself :'I am the Way, the Truth and the Life', 'I am the Light of the World.'
