Thou Shalt Keep Them

The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

(Psalms 12:6-7) KJV

We began to search out Bible passages that would substantiate the link between God can’t lie and the Bible is true. Before we knew it we were reaching for our copy of Thou Shalt Keep Them.

The Parable of the Sower

“Listen, then, and learn what the parable of the sower means. Those who hear the message about the Kingdom but do not understand it are like the seeds that fell along the path. The Evil One comes and snatches away what was sown in them. The seeds that fell on rocky ground stand for those who receive the message gladly as soon as they hear it. But it does not sink deep into them, and they don’t last long. So when trouble or persecution comes because of the message, they give up at once. The seeds that fell among thorn bushes stand for those who hear the message; but the worries about this life and the love for riches choke the message, and they don’t bear fruit. And the seeds sown in the good soil stand for those who hear the message and understand it: they bear fruit, some as much as one hundred, others sixty, and others thirty.”

(Matthew 13:18-23) Good News Translation

The parable of the sower used to be a source of waking dread for us (that’s me and the Holy spirit). It’s not the parable itself that scares us, it’s how Jesus explained the parable.

Whom Thou Choosest

Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

(Psalms 65:4) KJV

Sometimes we just need to gather up our thoughts. We can ponder things in such a way that we see a theme, and then we develop the theme by picking through some scripture. The word chosen occurs in a couple of Jesus’ parables.

Gravitational Waves

Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.

(Isaiah 5:14) KJV

We’re going to investigate the possibility that hell emits gravitational waves in response to fluctuations in the human death rate. This is hypothesis 13.

Showing God to this Generation

Now also when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.

(Psalms 71:18) KJV

Christian apologists have been playing defense for generations. They’ve worked to keep the Bible relevant while the world of popular science (SciPop) became an intellectual Death Star and destroyed any competing paradigm.

Testing God

And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

(Acts 5:38-39) KJV

We’ll find out if Matty’s Paradigm is a positive result in a predictive testable hypothesis for the existence of God that we get from Gamaliel’s counsel in the book of Acts. If it’s of God, then it’ll succeed.

The Donkey’s Jawbone

a jawbone

And he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and put out his hand and took it, and with it he struck 1,000 men. And Samson said,

“With the jawbone of a donkey,
heaps upon heaps,
with the jawbone of a donkey
have I struck down a thousand men.”

(Judges 15:15-16) ESV

The universe is both young and ancient simultaneously due to a phenomenon called gravitational time dilation (GTD). 2 Peter 3:8 is a mathematically accurate equation for GTD. We call it the Donkey’s Jawbone.

Matty’s Foundation Solutions

Bald man repairing a house foundation

Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

(1 Corinthians 3:12-15) KJV

Understanding the potentially grave consequences of this endeavor, we’re going to build a unified theory of everything (UTOE) on the foundation of Jesus Christ.
