Scripture is from The Creator’s Revelation. Revelation is direct communication from The Creator (GOD) to Instruct all of humanity to live as He Intended mankind to live. The Creation is His; only He has the right to dictate how all of it (including the life of humans) is to function.
Scripture is Revelation… So What is Revelation
Revelation means that that has been opened up, uncovered, made known, brought forth the nature of a thing. What is being the brought forth or made known? The Truth and Purpose of Creation. The Will of The Creator is constantly being revealed in the various types of Revelation. There are steps in Revelation. The first Revelation is through the Creation itself. GOD Created the whole Universe and all that it contains… seen and unseen. All of Creation speaks as Revelation to the mind and nature that seeks the Truth of the Will of GOD and the Plan of Existence as GOD designed and created it. Before anything existed (this means that before Creation there was and is only The Creator who we call GOD), GOD Willed it and He Said “Be, and it is“!!! When creatures were first put into Creation, they all, every kind of creation, have a form, a function, and a purpose. Everything was Created with a form that fits its purpose for its existence. So, when you see any two creatures each having the same specific form, they are designed that way to complete a function in the Creation. This pertains to everything… the stars, the planets, the dark matter, the numerous forms on and in the forms of Creation, the air, the metal, the stones, the single cell creatures, the more advanced structure of creatures with multitudes of single cells, animals, insects, birds, humans…. all of that which has been Created has been given a form for its specific “class of forms”, with specific functions to match the “class”. So, a crow has the same form and function as every other crow, the lion has the same form and function as every other lion, the human has the same form and function as every other human, etc.
Everything in Creation is designed to act in accord with its purpose. When you look at Creation, you can see that everything is functioning in accord with nature… except for the human being in many cases. The Creation is exceedingly beautiful when it is functioning naturally. That is why why are in awe of the magnificence and the seeming unlimited display of the beautiful order and consistency of all of these “classes” and type of creation.
What is Scripture?
Scripture is the written Revelation that The Creator (GOD) sends to mankind to guide mankind to the right purpose of its creation. So, when we refer to “Scripture”, we are referring to the Books that were written as a result of the messages that GOD revealed to prophets and messengers. Notorious Scripture are books such as the Torah, the Gospel, and the Qur’an. Original scripture was always revealed in the language spoken by the prophet to whom GOD made has revelation to whom Guidance was taught. What we know of most scripture today is volumes that were translation to various languages from what could be ascertained as being from the original language. I say this because much of the original language for much of previous revelation has been lost or destroyed, so what remains is generally what has been agreed upon by scholars and learned people from what has been passed down. The Qur’an is the only book which is in its original form in its totality. Many Qur’ans are distributed with both the original Arabic that was understood by the Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings be Upon Him) and the language that the Arabic was translated to. Many Qur’ans are distributed with only the original Arabic script.
As stated above, the purpose of Scripture is to communicate the Revelation sent from GOD for proper Guidance to mankind. Scripture that was sent after any previous scripture had the purpose of correcting the eventual changes and miscommunications (intended and unintended), meaning any variation that resulted in the alteration of the original revealed messages’ intent and purity.
