Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Cause is the cause of Man's translation into Paradise from the world he has destroyed by his own evil ways. By God's grace Joshua S. is borne into heaven by Angels of Surety. That is the salvic mission on God's created living earth for which he has designed Man, in his corrupt state, though redeemable, to be saved through repentance and confession. Baal has not saved him; hedonism has not restored his conscience; Pantheism has not better his complex societies. The Cause is Gnostic of the spiritual realm, stripping Man of the blasphemy of I AM THAT I AM. It is confrontive of evil in its own salutary way; and it is provocative rather of the blessings to the Petitioner at the Gates of Heaven.It smacks of no deviancy to say that he who has not joined The Cause is a prisoner of his own flesh, a fact that Medieval Monastic Monks grappled with... The mission contained herein is that which is taught in Holy Scripture: namely, that he who believes in God's beloved Son feels no longer compelled to perform wicked acts but enjoys the liberty to chose what means and ends his conscience dictates to him... Thus, the substance of this long poem in free verse is the essence of Man's capacity to improve on his ways, not by psychiatric help but by spiritual transformation. In that sense, The Cause is a religious poem that deals with the transforming power of faith.
