But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
(James 3:17) KJV
The first elemental particle is a proton, Hydrogen. The passage above includes a fascinating phrase: the wisdom that is from above is first pure. It includes the Greek word proton.
And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”
(1 Corinthians 1:30-31) ESV
We successfully tested the hypothesis that the deep, the Word of God and Jesus Christ are identities of God the Son. The scriptural context of each one is congruent with the featured passage. It’s Hypothesis 18.
We tried to read through the Qur’an about 15 years ago. Along the way it occurred to us that our time may be better spent reading the Bible. Now that we have read through the Bible 15 or so times and have been studying it daily for many years we picked up the Qur’an again. It is absolutely fascinating. Which leads us to ponder the question:
AND it’s a revelation from the God of the Holy Bible as it claims,
THEN it should be congruent with the Axioms, Corollaries and Principles of Principia Mattymatica.
We are just beginning to examine the Qur’an from a scientific perspective. Obviously this is a sensitive subject for many people and this is not something that we take lightly.
These are the Principles that the Qur’an must be compatible with:
The Qur’an must also support the following major findings:
There is a crystalline firmament on the edge of space which accounts for 90% of the mass of the universe
The expansion of hell is the cause of global warming.
Either we will deduce that the Qur’an is not compatible with the physics of the universe as revealed in the Holy Bible – in which case it is not Divine in nature, or it will be found to be compatible with the physics of the universe revealed in the Holy Bible – in which case it will be found to be a confirmation of the earlier scriptures, which is what it claims to be.
Are we brave enough to proceed with this investigation given that either outcome is likely to upset a lot of people?
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
(Genesis 1:1) KJV
Some people believe that Genesis 1:1 is a subheading which bookmarks the beginning of creation, not as a creative act. However, some people believe that it was a separate creative act.
Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
(Psalms 150:1) KJV
We can calculate a distance to the firmament with the question: If GPS clocks are faster by 38,640 ns per day at an orbital radius of 26,541 km, what’s the orbital radius when the clocks are faster by 1,000 years?
We frequently refer to words from the original Hebrew or Greek. It can be tricky knowing how to present this material at times so here is the guideline we will aim for in our use of the original languages:
a laying down: καταβολῆς – katabolé
(a) foundation,
(b) depositing, sowing, deposit, technically used of the act of conception.
This consists of 4 elements:
separator
definition: Greek text – transliteration ( heading 4 )
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
(John 1:4) ESV
When we combine a plain reading of the texts with deductive logic it’s easy to show that Jesus Christ, the Word and “the deep” are all synonyms for God the Son.
Through him God made all things; not one thing in all creation was made without him.
(John 1:3) Good news Translation
If all things were made through the Word and through Jesus Christ then they’re the same person. If the physics is that “the deep” is the source of hydrogen for nucleosynthesis then this is Him also, by default not theology.
