I chose to paint the lion in the midst of the universe, as a symbol of Jesus Christ as creator.
“The heaven’s declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the works of his hands.” Psalms 19:1
1. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God.”
2. “He was God in the beginning.”
3. “Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.”
4. “In him was life, and that life was the light of men.”
5. “The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not overcome it.”
12. “Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.”
14. “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory of the One and Only who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.”
In Revelation 5 it says that in John’s vision that no one was found worthy to open the scroll, in heaven or on earth.
6. Then one of the elders said to me, “do not weep! See the Lion of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and it’s seven seals.”
Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He has overcome death and the grave for those who choose to accept his gift of salvation provided for us at the cross and his resurrection.
