Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Double Christ unfolds entirely in the liminal three days between the Crucifixion and the Resurrection-those days of cosmic silence when scripture falls quiet. It begins at the tomb, where the Six Rays of Elohim enter the sealed stone and reanimate the body of Jesus. Only one being witnesses this miracle: Hassatan, the Archangel of Truth, and Heaven's Adversary.From the tomb, Jesus follows Hassatan from clear to clear-an angelic mode of traversing realms unseen by mortals. But this is no random wandering. Hassatan, long defamed as Satan by mortals, embarks on a perilous journey across the reaches of Heaven and its outer dominions to forestall a second annihilation of mankind-one God is now quietly considering.Their path cuts through sun-scorched deserts where Hassatan laments the cruelty of the Flood, through a nursery where he mourns a stillborn life whose Soul he prepares for its journey to Heaven, and down to Ghenna, God's little disturbing hole, where wrongly castoff souls burn in silence. As they pass through these realms, Jesus listens-still learning, still questioning-and Hassatan reveals a defiant mission: to save humanity from being lost again, by confronting the Will of God itself.But the Adversary carries an ancient burden. Eons ago, he revealed the secret of mirrors to early mankind-how to create them, how to see themselves. It was meant to be an act of love to bring Man closer to God, depending on who speaks. God, unaware of the culprit's identity, decreed that whoever revealed the mirror must be cast from Heaven. That traitor, it is eventually revealed, is Hassatan-the very Essence of God, made angelic flesh. The knowledge has festered in silence, concealed for eons.Michael, Archangel and one Heaven's most severe General, forces Hassatan into confrontation after he weakens him using the Blood of the Lamb. In this moment-extracted under torment, not trial-the truth is pulled from Hassatan, and Heaven reels. Michael is stunned. God is devastated. Yet the old decree cannot be withdrawn. The sentence must be fulfilled.And so the Trial is called-not hidden, but a spectacle. In the Seventh Hall of Heaven, before the watching multitudes of angels, Hassatan is brought forward to be judged. The charge is absolute. The consequence, irreversible. The decree that once seemed abstract now demands reality: Hassatan must fall.What follows is not rebellion, but heartbreak. The angels do not cheer; they weep, and many do follow Satan, their champion. For this is not the casting out of evil, but the banishment of one who tried to save. It is here, during these very three days-long left blank in scripture-that the casting of Satan is fixed in time and place.The name Satan is never once uttered in Heaven. There, he is still known as Hassatan-the Adversary, the Questioner, the one who once stood nearest to God.As the Trial concludes, Jesus-newly returned, not yet risen in public-witnesses the unraveling of celestial loyalties, and the hidden fractures in the divine plan. He is not sent to judge, not yet; he is sent to understand. But what he sees in those three days will mark his return to the living world forever.Double Christ offers a radically imaginative answer to a mystery that has lingered for centuries: when did Satan fall from Heaven-and why? Here, the fall is given its hour, its reason, and its heartbreaking truth. Two saviours move through this story: one reborn in light, one defamed in darkness. Together, they form the title's meaning: Double Christ.…
