·        Space is defined by length, width, and height; combining these three with time gives you the fourth dimension.

 

·        Another name for the space – “time continuum” is the fourth dimentional continuum, because there are four coordinates that can locate any event.

 

·        We live in this fourth dimensional Universe. But we’re usually not conscious of it.

 

·        Whenever we agree to meet someone at a certain location and a specific time, we are making a four dimensional statement.

 

·        But we have a tendency to separate time from space.

 

·        There are things we do in space and things we do in time, but we do end up unifying them unconsciously.

 

·        Otherwise, we would never get anywhere on time.

 

·        Relativity theory says: both space and time transform relative to moving frames of reference.

 

·        The special theory of relativity deals with frames of reference that are moving in a straight line, toward or away from each other, and are not accelerating, but instead are moving at a constant or uniform speed.

 

·        The general theory defines the relationships between objects throughout all of space, moving in any direction, with or without acceleration.

 

·        The general theory explains why all bodies regardless of their mass, fall freely in a gravitational field with the same acceleration

 

·        You can’t tell the difference between gravity and acceleration without a frame of reference.

 

·        So non uniform motion is relative, too.

 

·        This principle is known as the principle of equivalence.

 

·        With this realization, Einstein knew that to fully incorporate acceleration into relativity he would have to create a theory of gravity.

 

·        This is what the world knows a his general theory of relativity, which is Einstein’s theory of gravitation.

 

·        Time/Motion is relative based upon the observer and a reference.

 

·        As an object approaches the speed of light, the time intervals, or the rate at which time passes change.

 

·        This is called dilation.

 

·        Time intervals are periods of time between events and they dilate or become longer as you approach the speed of light.

 

·        Time is affected by motion and since time and space are inseparable, that means that space is affected by motion as well.

 

·        Time is a form of perception and is defined by the events that mark it.

 

·        The relationship between distance, speed and time is expressed in the formula: Distance = Rate x time.

 

·        Einstein stated that time, like motion is relative.

 

·        Time slows down as you approach the speed of light and is non existent at the speed of light.

 

31) SCEINCE CONFIRMS THAT TIME IS __________(NON)-EXISTENT AT THE SPEED OF _____________(LIGHT) AND THE BIBLE CONFIRMS THAT __________(GOD) IS LIGHT – THEREFORE GOD IS ABLE TO ________________(TRANSCEND) TIME AND SPACE. Micah 7:8, Matthew 4:16, John 9:5, John 9:12:34-48, Revelation 22:1-6

JESUS SAID: “I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD”.

Revelation 22:1-8 (pg. 879) says:

1Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. 4They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever. 6The angel said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent his angel to show his servants the things that must soon take place."

NOTE: When people have died and go to Heaven, the majority of the time they report seeing a very bright white light – if this is true than it can be said they are seeing God, for God is light!

·        An object’s motion is hared through all four dimensions of the space-time continuum – the three dimensions of space and the fourth one of time.

 

·        If an object is stationary, relative to us, all of its motion is being used to travel through only one dimension: time.

 

·         As soon as it begins to move, some of its motion is being diverted to moving through space, so there is no longer as much motion being used to travel through time, so time goes slower, and that’s why the clock of a moving object runs slower that one that is stationary.

 

·        The speed of an object through space reflects how much of its motion through time is being diverted.

 

·        The faster it moves through space, the more motion is being diverted away from moving through time, so it slows down.

 

·        Einstein’s happiest thought: You can’t tell the difference between gravity and acceleration without a frame of reference.

 

·        Einstein’s happiest thought was that in freefall, a person is not aware of gravity.

 

·        This simple insight led to the development of his theory of general relativity eight years later.

 

·        This idea is known as the principle of equivalence.

 

·        The two cornerstones of the general theory of relativity are the principle of the equivalence and the concept that gravitation is caused by the distortion of space.

 

32) SCIENCE CONFIRMS THAT TIME DOES NOT WORK THE WAY WE THINK IT DOES – IT CAN BE ___________________(TRANSCENDED) IN THE ________________(FOURTH) DIMENTION. Psalm 139:14-18

Psalms 90:4, 2 Peter 3:7-9

 

Psalm 139: 14-18 (pg. 445) says

4 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
       your works are wonderful,
       I know that full well.

 15 My frame was not hidden from you
       when I was made in the secret place.
       When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

 16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
       All the days ordained for me
       were written in your book
       before one of them came to be.

 17 How precious to [a] me are your thoughts, O God!
       How vast is the sum of them!

 18 Were I to count them,
       they would outnumber the grains of sand.
       When I awake,
       I am still with you.

Psalms 90:4 says:

4 For a thousand years in your sight
       are like a day that has just gone by,
       or like a watch in the night.

2 Peter 3:7-9 (pg. 861) says:

7By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

 8But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

33) SCEINCE CONFIRMS THE CONCEPT OF ________________ _____________ _____________(TIME REVERSAL SYMETRY) THAT SAYS: THE PRESENT NOT ONLY AFFECTS THE FUTURE, BUT IT ALSO AFFECTS THE _________________(PAST). Psalm 139: 14-18,

 Ephesians 1:3-14, Isaiah 43:25

 

·        This way seem weird at first. But the Bible tells us that God predestined us to be Christ followers before we ever born. And trusting the blood of Jesus today wipes out the sins of the past.

 

Psalm 139 (pg. 445) 14-18 says:

 

1 O LORD, you have searched me
       and you know me.

 2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
       you perceive my thoughts from afar.

 3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
       you are familiar with all my ways.

 4 Before a word is on my tongue
       you know it completely, O LORD.

 5 You hem me in—behind and before;
       you have laid your hand upon me.

 6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
       too lofty for me to attain.

 7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
       Where can I flee from your presence?

 8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
       if I make my bed in the depths, [a] you are there.

 9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
       if I settle on the far side of the sea,

 10 even there your hand will guide me,
       your right hand will hold me fast.

 11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
       and the light become night around me,"

 12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
       the night will shine like the day,
       for darkness is as light to you.

 13 For you created my inmost being;
       you knit me together in my mother's womb.

 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
       your works are wonderful,
       I know that full well.

 15 My frame was not hidden from you
       when I was made in the secret place.
       When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

 16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
       All the days ordained for me
       were written in your book
       before one of them came to be.

 17 How precious to [b] me are your thoughts, O God!
       How vast is the sum of them!

 18 Were I to count them,
       they would outnumber the grains of sand.
       When I awake,
       I am still with you.

 19 If only you would slay the wicked, O God!
       Away from me, you bloodthirsty men!

 20 They speak of you with evil intent;
       your adversaries misuse your name.

 21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD,
       and abhor those who rise up against you?

 22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
       I count them my enemies.

 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
       test me and know my anxious thoughts.

 24 See if there is any offensive way in me,
       and lead me in the way everlasting.

Ephesians 1:3-14 (pg. 827) says:

 

 3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5he[a] predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— 6to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace 8that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. 9And he[b] made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.

 11In him we were also chosen,[c] having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, 12in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. 13And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.

NOTE: SCIENCE CONFIRMS THAT PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE ARE NOT SEPARATE FROM EACH OTHER AND IT IS POSSIBLE TO FLOW FROM TO THE OTHER BECAUSE THEY ARE ____________________(CONNECTED) AS ONE – IN OTHERWORDS IT IS POSSIBLE TO _____________(CHANGE) BOTH YOUR _____________(PAST) AND YOUR _____________(FUTURE) BY _______________(CHANGING) THE _______________(PRESENT) – THIS IS TRUE FOR THE FOLLOWER OF ______________ ________________(JESUS CHRIST) BECAUE THEIR _____________(NAME) HAS BEEN CHANGED AND THEIR OLD ROBE OF SIN HAS BEEN EXCHANGED FOR THE ROBE OF ________________________(RIGHTEOUSNESS).

 

Isaiah 43:25 says:

 

“I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more.”

34) SCEINCE CONFIRMS THAT ______________(TIME) ______________(TRAVEL) IS ______________(POSSIBLE). 2 Kings 2:11-12, Matthew 17:1-13, Mark 9:2-13, 2 Corinthians 12:1-6

TRUTH: THE BIBLE SHARES WITH US TRUE ACCOUTS OF PEOPLE ________________(TRAVELING) FROM _________________(HEAVEN) TO ______________(EARTH) AND FROM ______________(EARTH) TO _______________(HEAVEN) AND BACK AGAIN.

THE EXAMPLE OF ELIJAH

2 Kings 2:11-12 (pg. 260) says:

 11 As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. 12 Elisha saw this and cried out, "My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel!" And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own clothes and tore them apart.

Malachi 4:5-6 (pg. 677) says:

5 "See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of the LORD comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse."

Matthew 17:1-13 (pg. 694) says:

 

1After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 2There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 3Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus.

 4Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah."

 5While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!"

 6When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. 7But Jesus came and touched them. "Get up," he said. "Don't be afraid." 8When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.

 9As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, "Don't tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead."

 10The disciples asked him, "Why then do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?"

 11Jesus replied, "To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things. 12But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands." 13Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist.

THE EXAMPLE OF APOSTLE PAUL

 

2 Corinthians 12:1-10 (pg. 822) says:

 

 1I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. 2I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. 3And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows— 4was caught up to paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell. 5I will boast about a man like that, but I will not boast about myself, except about my weaknesses. 6Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say.

 7To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

NIV STUDY BIBLE NOTES:

 

·        The third heaven designates a place beyond the immediate heaven of the earth’s atmosphere and beyond the further heaven of outer space and its constellations into the presence of God himself. This the risen Lord is said to have passed “through the heavens” (Heb 4:14), and now having “ascended higher than all the heavens” (Eph4:10), to be exalted above the heavens” (Heb 7:26). The term paradise is synonymous with the third heaven, where those believers who have died are even now “at home with the Lord”  

 

35) SCIENCE CONFIRMS THAT THERE IS A

____________________ ____________________(FOURTH DIEMENSIONAL) REALITY THAT CONTAINS AN INFINTE NUMBER OF _____________________(POSSIBILITIES) HAPPENING AROUND US SIMUTANEOUSLY – SCIENCE BELIEVE THERE ARE AT LEAST  11 LEVELS OF LIFE HAPPENING AROUND US AS WE LIVE IN THE PHYSICAL WORLD – I BELIEVE THE BIBLE REFERS TO THIS AS THE SPIRITUAL WORLD. Ezekiel 1, Revelations 4:6-11,

 2 Corinthians 12:1-10

 

·        According to Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg, the universe exists as an infinite number of overlapping possibilities.

 

THE MANY WORLD’S INTERPRETATION

 

·        It suggests that at any given moment in time, there are an infinite number of possibilities occurring, and that all of them already exist and are happening simultaneously.

 

·        From this perspective, someone could be living a life of illness and disease, and through a shift in focus, suddenly find himself “miraculously healed while the world around him looks much like it did before.

 

·        To simply say that we choose a new reality is not enough.

 

·        There’s a fine and delicate balance between simply choosing a new possibility and actually following through with the thoughts, feelings and beliefs that awaken that outcome as a new reality.

·         

·        Visionary philosopher Ervin Laszlo states: “all that happens in one place happens also in the other places; all that happened at one time happens also at times after that. Nothing is ‘local’ limited to where and when it is happening.”

 

·        Just as a hologram contains the original image in all of its many parts, any change made to just one of those segments becomes reflected everywhere throughout the pattern.

 

·        A single change in one place can make a difference everywhere.

 

Ezekiel 1:1-29 (pg. 586) says:

 

1 In the [a] thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day, while I was among the exiles by the Kebar River, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.

 2 On the fifth of the month—it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin- 3 the word of the LORD came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, [b] by the Kebar River in the land of the Babylonians. [c] There the hand of the LORD was upon him.

 4 I looked, and I saw a windstorm coming out of the north—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked like glowing metal, 5 and in the fire was what looked like four living creatures. In appearance their form was that of a man, 6 but each of them had four faces and four wings. 7 Their legs were straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze. 8 Under their wings on their four sides they had the hands of a man. All four of them had faces and wings, 9 and their wings touched one another. Each one went straight ahead; they did not turn as they moved.

 10 Their faces looked like this: Each of the four had the face of a man, and on the right side each had the face of a lion, and on the left the face of an ox; each also had the face of an eagle. 11 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out upward; each had two wings, one touching the wing of another creature on either side, and two wings covering its body. 12 Each one went straight ahead. Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they went. 13 The appearance of the living creatures was like burning coals of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning flashed out of it. 14 The creatures sped back and forth like flashes of lightning.

 15 As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. 16 This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like chrysolite, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 17 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not turn about [d] as the creatures went. 18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.

 19 When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose. 20 Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. 21 When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

 22 Spread out above the heads of the living creatures was what looked like an expanse, sparkling like ice, and awesome. 23 Under the expanse their wings were stretched out one toward the other, and each had two wings covering its body. 24 When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings, like the roar of rushing waters, like the voice of the Almighty, [e] like the tumult of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings.

 25 Then there came a voice from above the expanse over their heads as they stood with lowered wings. 26 Above the expanse over their heads was what looked like a throne of sapphire, [f] and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man. 27 I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded him. 28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him.
      This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. When I saw it, I fell facedown, and I heard the voice of one speaking.

Revelations 4:6-11 (pg. 869) says:

6Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back. 7The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle. 8Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under his wings. Day and night they never stop saying: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." 9Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne and who lives for ever and ever, 10the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say:
 11"You are worthy, our Lord and God,
   to receive glory and honor and power,
   for you created all things,
      and by your will they were created
      and have their being."

2 Corinthians 12:1-6 (pg. 822) says:

 

I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. 2I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. 3And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows— 4was caught up to paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell. 5I will boast about a man like that, but I will not boast about myself, except about my weaknesses. 6Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say.

36) SCEINCE CONFIRMS THAT HUMAN BEINGS ARE NOT __________________(LIMITED) TO THEIR PHYSICAL BODIES AND CAN TRANSCEND THEM. John 20:10 – 21:12

Luke 24:36-53, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, 1 Corinthians 15:35-58

 

·        Eve though we may be physically separated from one another, we can still be in instantaneous communication, and that’s what REMOTE VIEWING is all about. Pg. 129

 

·        Jesus used the holographic principle to illustrate how just a little faith is all that’s required to open the door to a greater possibility.

 

“If you have faith as small as a mustard seed you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move; nothing will be impossible for you.”

 

·        The Devine Matrix serves as the mirror in our world of the relationships that we create in our beliefs.

 

·        The root of our negative experiences may be reduced to one of the three universal fears of: abandonment, low self-worth, or lack of trust.

 

·        Our true beliefs are mirrored in our most intimate relationships.

 

NOTE: Scientific research has shown that as we change the way we feel about what’s happened to us in our past, we change the chemistry of our bodies in the present.

 

·        We must become in our lives the very things that we choose to experience in our world.

 

EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED

 

·        Quantum foam is the term used by physicists to describe the violent activity of the quantum world.

 

·        When you combine all the characteristics of quantum mechanics – such as wave functions, probability, and uncertainty – you get a pretty active interaction among the forces and particles.

 

·        You can also think of a quantum soup, happily bubbling away.

 

·        Elementary particles are not considered particles in string theory, but are tiny vibrating lops called strings.

 

·        The resonating vibrating pattern is different for each string and defines the “fingerprint” that identifies what particle it is.

 

·        The resonating pattern is in turn defined by the number of dimensions and the shape of the dimension as well.

 

John 20:10 – 21:12 (pg. 769)  says:

 

10Then the disciples went back to their homes, 11but Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb 12and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus' body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.

 13They asked her, "Woman, why are you crying?"

   "They have taken my Lord away," she said, "and I don't know where they have put him." 14At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.

 15"Woman," he said, "why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?"
      Thinking he was the gardener, she said, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him."

 16Jesus said to her, "Mary."
      She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, "Rabboni!" (which means Teacher).

 17Jesus said, "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet returned to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.' "

 18Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: "I have seen the Lord!" And she told them that he had said these things to her.

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

 19On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" 20After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.

 21Again Jesus said, "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." 22And with that he breathed on them and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven."

Jesus Appears to Thomas

 24Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. 25So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!"
      But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."

 26A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" 27Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe."

 28Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!"

 29Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."

 30Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. 31But these are written that you may[a] believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

John 21

Jesus and the Miraculous Catch of Fish

 1Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Tiberias.[b] It happened this way: 2Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. 3"I'm going out to fish," Simon Peter told them, and they said, "We'll go with you." So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.

 4Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.

 5He called out to them, "Friends, haven't you any fish?"
      "No," they answered.

 6He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

 7Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, "It is the Lord," he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. 8The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred yards.[c] 9When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there with fish on it, and some bread.

 10Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish you have just caught."

 11Simon Peter climbed aboard and dragged the net ashore. It was full of large fish, 153, but even with so many the net was not torn. 12Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." None of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord. 13Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish. 14This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead.

Luke 24:36-53 (pg. 749) says:

 

36While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."

 37They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. 38He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have."

 40When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?" 42They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43and he took it and ate it in their presence.

 44He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms."

 45Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46He told them, "This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, 47and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48You are witnesses of these things. 49I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high."

The Ascension

 50When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, he lifted up his hands and blessed them. 51While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven. 52Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. 53And they stayed continually at the temple, praising God.

 

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (pg. 836) says:

 

 13Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. 14We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18Therefore encourage each other with these words.

 

1 Corinthians 15:35-58 (pg. 815) says:

 

35But someone may ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?" 36How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. 37When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or of something else. 38But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body. 39All flesh is not the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another and fish another. 40There are also heavenly bodies and there are earthly bodies; but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is another. 41The sun has one kind of splendor, the moon another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.

 42So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; 43it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.
      If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45So it is written: "The first man Adam became a living being"[a]; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit. 46The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual. 47The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven. 48As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 49And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we[b] bear the likeness of the man from heaven.

 50I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. 54When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory."[c]
 55"Where, O death, is your victory?
      Where, O death, is your sting?"[d] 56The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

 58Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

HOLOGRAM

 

·        Creating the illusion that things are located where they are not is the quintessential feature of a Hologram.

 

·        If you look at a hologram it seems to have an extension in space, but if you pass your hand through it you will discover that there is nothing there.

 

·        Despite what your senses tell you, no instrument will pick up the presence of any abnormal energy or substance where the hologram appears to be hovering.

 

·        There is substantial evidence that shows that the brain is able to fool us into thinking that inner processes are located outside the body.

 

·        AMAZING DISCOVERY – an electron can manifest as either a particle or a wave.

 

·        MORE AMAZING – The only time quanta ever manifest as particles is when we are looking at them.

 

·        The observer helps the wave of potentialities become a particle.

 

NOTE: Remember that the double split experiment is considered to be the central mystery of quantum mechanics.

 

·        When the particle that is sent through the slit is observed, it behaves as a particle, but when it is not observed, it behaves like a wave.

 

·        That led Neils Borh to develop his famous Copenhagen interpretation in which the electron didn’t come into existence until it was observed.

 

·        Of course, Schrödinger’s famous cat was the rebuttal to that argument, but that idea of observation altering the outlook of an experiment still lies as a core principle in quantum mechanics and is also the basis for Heisenberg’s uncertainty.

 

·        Under certain circumstances, subatomic particles such as elections and photons are able to instantly communicate with each other regardless of the distance separating them, whether it’s 20 feet or 20 billion miles.

 

·        Somehow each particle always seems to know what the other is doing.

 

·        This observation violates the ultimate speed of the universe, the speed of light.

 

·        It also shows that the universe has an interconnectedness that can’t be explained within the context of traditional physics.

 

·        A fundamental truth f the Universe is: there are correlations that take place instantly regardless of the separateness of the objects involved.

 

·        Nonlocality – is a term used to describe the way in which the behavior of a quantum entity, like an electron, is affected by not only what is going on at one point (the locality of the entity), but also by events that are going on at the other places (other localities), which can in principle be on the other side of the universe.

 

·        The nonlocal influences occur instantaneously s some form of communication which Einstein called a “spooky action at a distance, not just faster than the speed of light. But infinitely fast.”

 

·        The most fundamental implication of nonlocality is that since every particle in the universe has been “entangled” with other particles, like the particles in the experiments, physical reality on the most basic level is an undivided wholeness.

 

·        It also demonstrates that physical processes are vastly interdependent and interactive, an organic whole, in some ways very similar to Plato’s ancient cosmology.

 

·        The quantum potential is a field that exist below the quantum level and is therefore sub quantum.

 

·        It pervades all of space, but unlike gravitational fields and magnetic fields, does not weaken with distance.

 

·        In the same way that Einstein clarified that space and time are not separate but a continuum, Bohm has taken that idea and just extended it to include everything.

 

·         As a holographic universe, everything is part of a continuum.

 

·        The hologram is used as a metaphor to describe the illusion of the everyday world.

 

·        The world of our everyday lives is really kind of an illusion like a holographic image.

 

·        Underlying our reality is a deeper order of existence, a vast, primary level of reality that gives birth to all objectives and appearances in the same way the holographic film gives birth to the hologram.

 

·        The collective unconscious lies at the core of our being.

 

·        It is a part that we never tap consciously but only through the symbols in our dreams.

 

·        “We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts, with our thoughts we make our world.

 

·        It contains the highest and lowest aspects that define the best and worst of humanity.

 

·        Within this pool of collective unconscious are the archetypes.

 

·        These are universal patterns or themes that everyone draws upon when they sleep.

 

·        The level of the unconscious and the symbols that reside there apply to all people, cultures and races.

 

·        By studying the dream symbols of people from all over the world, Jung realized that the level of consciousness is a part of everyone’s psyche.

 

·        Kant said that while we think we are passively experiencing sensations from the outer world, we are really actively organizing those sensations into humanly acceptable categories.

 

·        Thus when we think we are experiencing the outer world, we are really experiencing the “categories” of our own minds.

 

·        A common metaphor for this description used in Eastern philosophy is that the mind is simply a mirror that reflects itself.

 

·        Kant felt that we could never experience the real underlying physical reality; according to him, we can only experience the categories of the human mind.

 

·        And since we’re not consciously aware of these categories, we don’t realize that they are responsible for organizing reality in the way that we experience it.

 

·        Kants categories are self- organizing principles within our minds that present the experience of the world to us in a way that makes us assume that things like space, time and causality are processes that occur outside of us.

 

·        We perceive cause and effect relationships because that’s the way our minds are set up to interpret the sensations that it receives.

 

·        The same is true of space and time.

 

·        Kant argues that space and time are categories as well and that the reason we can’t experience anything outside of space and time because we have no choice but to experience the world that way.

 

·        Kants categories are not far from Program’s holographic brain model, that our brains construct the objects we see and experience around us.

 

·        What is “out there: is simply an immense ocean of waves and frequencies, and really looks concrete to us only because our brains are able to take this holographic blur and convert it into the solid forms and other familiar objects that make up our world.

 

·        Although it appears as though there are two separate levels of reality, there is really only one.

 

·        What makes it difficult to grasp is that we’re not looking at a hologram, we’re part of the hologram.

 

·        In the holographic paradigm, there is no actual separation between what’s inside of us and what is outside.

 

ALBERT EINSTEIN SAID:

 

“There are only two ways to live your life: One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is. I believe in the latter”. Albert Einstein

 

“God does not play dice with the Universe” – Albert Einstein.

 

·        Albert Einstein said: “According to the general theory of relativity, space without ether is unthinkable; for is such space there not only would be no propagation of light, but also no possibility of existence for standards of space.”

 

·        Max Planck stated that the existence of the field suggests that intelligence is responsible for our physical world. We must assume behind this force that we see as matter the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter”.

 

·        “Nature abhors a vacuum.

 

·        REGARDLESS OF WHAT WE CALL IT, IT’S CLEAR THAT THERE IS A FIELD OR PRESCENCE THAT IS THE “GREAT NET” THAT CONNECTS EVERYTHING IN CREATION.

 

·        Early in the 20th century, Einstein made reference to the mysterious force that he was certain exists in what we see as the Universe around us. “Nature shows us only the tail of the Lion”, suggesting that there’s something more to what we see as reality, even if we can’t see it from our particular cosmic advantage point. Einstein continued to state: “I do not doubt that the Lion belongs to the tail even though he cannot at once reveal himself because of his enormous size.

 

·        In later writings, Einstein went on to say that regardless of who we are or what our role in the universe may be, we’re all subject to a greater power: “Human beings, vegetables or cosmic dust – we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.”

 

ILLUSTRATION

 

In 1997, scientific journals throughout the world published the results of something that traditional physicist say shouldn’t have happened. Reported to over 3,400 journalists, educators, scientist and engineers in more than 40 countries, an experiment had been performed by the University of Geneva in Switzerland on the stuff that our world is made of – particles of light called PHOTONS.

 

The Scientist has split a single photon into tow particles, creating twins with identical properties. Then using equipment developed for the experiment, they fired both particles away from one another in opposite directions. The twins were placed in a specially were placed in a specially designed chamber with two fiber optic pathways, just like the ones that transmit phone calls, extending away from the chamber in the opposite direction for a distance of seven miles. By the time each twin reached its target, 14 miles separated one from the other. At the end of the pathway, the Twins were forced to choose between the two random routes that were identical in every respect.

 

·        What makes this experiment so interesting is that when the twin articles reached the place where they had to follow one course or the other, they both made precisely the same choices and traveled the same path each time. Without fail, the results were identical every time the experiment was conducted.

 

·        Even though conventional wisdom states that the twins are separate and have no communication with one another, they act as if they are still connected. Physicists call this mysterious connection “Quantum entanglement”.

 

·        The project leader, Nicholas Gisin explains, “What is fascinating is that the entangled photons form one and the same object.

 

·        Even when the twin photons are separated geographically, if one of them is modified, the other photon automatically undergoes the same change.”

 

·        Commenting on this kind of phenomenon long before the 1997 experiment actually took place, Albert Einstein called the possibility of such results occurring “spooky action at a distance.”

 

·        Today scientists believe that these unconventional results are properties that occur only in the quantum realm and acknowledge them as “quantum weirdness”.

 

·        The connection between the photons was so complete that it appeared to be instantaneous.

 

·        In principle, it should make no difference whether the correlation between twin articles occurs when they are separated by a few meters or by an entire Universe.

 

·        Einstein firmly believed that the past and the future are intimately intertwined as the stuff of the fourth dimension, a reality that he called space-time.

 

37) SCIENCE CONFIRMS THAT _______________(TIME) AND SPACE ARE ________________(ILLUSIONS) OF OUR ______________(SENSES) THAT REALLY DO NOT EXIST OUTSIDE OF PHYSICAL LIFE AS WE KNOW IT. Psalms 90:4

 

 

Psalms 90:4 says:

4 For a thousand years in your sight
       are like a day that has just gone by,
       or like a watch in the night.

2 Peter 3:7-9 says:

7By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

 8But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

THE BIBLE IS CLEAR ON FOUR FRONTS:

 

1) THE PAST IS GONE – DO NOT ________________(DWELL) ON IT.

 

Philippians 3:7-16 (pg. 832) says:

 

7But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ 9and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. 10I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, 11and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.

 12Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

 15All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. 16Only let us live up to what we have already attained.

2) THE FUTURE HAS NOT HAPPENED YET – DO NOT BE __________________(ANXIOUS) ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HAS NOT AND MAY NEVER HAPPEN.

 

Matthew 6:25-34 (pg. 685) says:

 

25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life[b]?

 28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

3) A CHRISTIAN CAN _________________(TRANSCEND) THE _______________(CONFINES) OF TIME AND SPACE THROUGH THE DISCIPLINES OF _____________ (PRAYER) _________________(THANKS) _______________(GIVING) AND ________________(RIGHTEOUS) __________________(THINKING) IN A SPIRIT OF ______________(LOVE).

 

·        The Bible says Love cast out all fear. When you are caught up in love for God and people, time and problems are transcended!

 

Philippians 4:4-9 (pg. 832) says:

4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

 8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

4) A “CHRIST FOLLOWER” CAN TRUST GOD TO____________(REDEEM) THE ______________(TIME) AND ____________(REPAY) THEM FOR THE ____________(YEARS) THE LOCOST HAVE EATEN.

 

Joel 2:20-30 (pg. 645) says:

 21 Be not afraid, O land;
       be glad and rejoice.
       Surely the LORD has done great things.

 22 Be not afraid, O wild animals,
       for the open pastures are becoming green.
       The trees are bearing their fruit;
       the fig tree and the vine yield their riches.

 23 Be glad, O people of Zion,
       rejoice in the LORD your God,
       for he has given you
       the autumn rains in righteousness. [d]
       He sends you abundant showers,
       both autumn and spring rains, as before.

 24 The threshing floors will be filled with grain;
       the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.

 25 "I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten—
       the great locust and the young locust,
       the other locusts and the locust swarm [e]
       my great army that I sent among you.

 26 You will have plenty to eat, until you are full,
       and you will praise the name of the LORD your God,
       who has worked wonders for you;
       never again will my people be shamed.

 27 Then you will know that I am in Israel,
       that I am the LORD your God,
       and that there is no other;
       never again will my people be shamed.

The Day of the LORD

 28 "And afterward,
       I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
       Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
       your old men will dream dreams,
       your young men will see visions.

 29 Even on my servants, both men and women,
       I will pour out my Spirit in those days.

 30 I will show wonders in the heavens
       and on the earth,
       blood and fire and billows of smoke.
