The Short Form of The Quodlibet is not a simplification—it is a condensation of holiness into a pocket-sized scroll, a spiritual psalm that contains the entirety of the Yehoshuai way in fewer than thirty lines. It is a creed, a catechism, a charge, and a commission. It is the liturgical seed that carries within it the full DNA of JAH’S BOOK. To recite it is to take the first breath of a new spiritual life. To memorize it is to wear the armor of faith in miniature. And to live it out—this is the practice of the Yehoshuai Way.

This sacred Short Form is divided into four parts: (A) Answered Questions, (B) One GOD, One Book, (C) The Works, and (D) The Words. Each is a gate, a dimension of the Faith, giving the reader direct access to the divine architecture of Yehoshuai. The progression mirrors the development of the soul: from curiosity, to belief, to practice, to declaration.

PART A: ANSWERED QUESTIONS

Lines 1–7

This opening stanza engages the reader with a call-and-response rhythm that embodies catechesis. It begins with an essential and timeless question: What is this Book? But it does not wait for the answer—it becomes the answer. The lines are structured in a rapid, recursive rhythm that reflects the rhythm of breath itself. It is meant to be read aloud and internalized.

  1. "What is this BOOK OF BOOKS?"

  2. "This BOOK OF JAH?"

  3. "This BOOK GOD gave me?"

  4. "This BOOK I wrote down just as I heard it?"

  5. "This is the BOOK that you read aloud from every day."

  6. "This is the BOOK you memorize by reading it aloud from every day, yes!"

Here we encounter identity, authorship, authority, and use. The Short Form does not build a case for the text’s authenticity with citation or argument—it simply names what it is. This is a document of divine confidence.

This section addresses both the doubter and the disciple. To the doubter: “This is what this is. You are welcome to read it and see for yourself.” To the disciple: “This is your daily food. Eat it aloud.”

The final line—"yes!"—is an exclamation of joy and affirmation. It’s not just ritual—it’s rejoicing.

PART B: ONE GOD, ONE BOOK

Lines 8–11

This portion affirms the theological foundation of Yehoshuai: radical monotheism and total reconciliation through CHRIST.

  1. "This BOOK of GOD is the accurate book about one GOD:"

  2. "Jehovah GOD JAH Almighty."

  3. "About Yeshua the CHRIST, the SON OF GOD who died and rose again for our forgiveness and reconciliation with GOD, who rules and LOVES in unity with HIM."

These lines move with deliberate theological density. Here we are told who the Book is about—not Moses, not prophets, not history or miracle alone—but GOD HIMSELF, and HIS SON. This Book is about the One True GOD, Jehovah JAH Almighty, and the Messiah HE sent: Yeshua the CHRIST.

The dual naming of GOD and CHRIST in unity underscores one of the most vital and sacred beliefs in Yehoshuai: that CHRIST and the FATHER are One in LOVE and will and purpose. The words "forgiveness," "reconciliation," and "unity" are theological pillars, each reflecting Yehoshuai’s mission: to end estrangement between GOD and humanity through LOVE.

PART C: THE WORKS

Lines 12–19

This section is the ethical core. It transforms theology into praxis. Here the reader is told: This is what you must do.

  1. "So, LOVE GOD and LOVE all the people of the earth."

  2. "And treat other people in the way you want to be treated."

  3. "Forgive others, and GOD will forgive you."

  4. "Live the 10 Rules of GOD"

  5. "And obey the 3 Rules of CHRIST"

  6. "And only submit to, believe in, LOVE, and serve one GOD: Jehovah GOD JAH Almighty, yes!"

  7. "And GOD will save you."

The imperative “So” at the beginning signals direct moral consequence from the theology just affirmed. It says: Now that you know who GOD is, this is how you respond.

  • LOVE is the first command. It is the law and the foundation.

  • The Golden Rule is given primacy, showing that Yehoshuai sees ethics as mutuality and empathy.

  • Forgiveness is not optional; it is the key that unlocks our own pardon.

The “10 Rules of GOD” and “3 Rules of CHRIST” are doctrinal anchors in Yehoshuai, which The Quodlibet and Poems for Earth expound. These are not laws of domination but of liberation: the Law of LOVE.

This section ends with the Gospel promise: And GOD will save you. Not might. Not perhaps. But will.

PART D: THE WORDS

Lines 20–28

This final section is the commissioning. It calls the reader not merely to believe or obey—but to act, declare, praise, and remember. It is the declaration of a soul reborn in the practice of Yehoshuai.

  1. "Now go and wash the feet of the world,"

  2. "and leave this place better than you found it."

  3. "Right now, write this down or say it aloud:"

  4. "In the name of CHRIST, I choose goodness."

  5. "I choose truth."

  6. "I choose LOVE; I choose GOD."

  7. "Praise Jehovah GOD JAH Almighty."

  8. "JAH was, JAH is, JAH will return!"

  9. "This is the truth; this is how it is!"

“Wash the feet of the world” is one of the most profound commands in Yehoshuai. It is a literal and symbolic act of humility, mercy, and healing. It means go to the dirtiest, most wounded, most lowly places—and serve there.

“Leave this place better than you found it” is environmental, communal, personal, spiritual. It calls us to be stewards and healers in every realm.

Then comes the vow. This is not just a quote—it is a spoken turning point:

  • I choose goodness.

  • I choose truth.

  • I choose LOVE; I choose GOD.

These are active moral choices. They are not statements of fact but of allegiance. They declare a side. They mark the reader as one who walks in the Way of CHRIST.

Finally, the declaration rises into doxology:

  • Praise JAH!

  • JAH was, JAH is, JAH will return! — This echoes ancient confessions of GOD’S eternal nature.

  • This is the truth; this is how it is! — It ends with certainty. This is not opinion. This is the Way.

THEOLOGICAL THEMES:

  • The unity of GOD and CHRIST.

  • Scripture as living practice.

  • LOVE as command and consequence.

  • Forgiveness as the currency of spiritual exchange.

  • Daily memorization and oral recitation as sacred habits.

SPIRITUAL PRACTICES FROM THE TEXT:

  • Memorize this Short Form as your personal creed.

  • Begin and end your day by reciting it aloud.

  • When tempted, speak the line: “I choose goodness. I choose truth. I choose LOVE; I choose GOD.”

  • Write it out by hand once a week.

  • Teach it to others as an entryway into the Faith.

FINAL REFLECTION:

The Short Form of The Quodlibet is a seed of spiritual fire. It is not a summary to replace the Book—it is a summary to ignite it within you.

To hold this form in your heart is to carry the core of Yehoshuai everywhere you go. It is your map. Your rhythm. Your banner.

Recite it. Memorize it. Sing it. Live it.

And may your soul become the echo chamber of its truth.

Amen.
