Gravity, Redemption and the Soul

Why should I fear in the days of evil, When the iniquity at my heels surrounds me? Those who trust in their wealth And boast in the multitude of their riches, None of them can by any means redeem his brother, Nor give to God a ransom for him—For the redemption of their souls is costly, And it shall cease forever—That he should continue to live eternally, And not see the Pit.
(Psalms 49:6-9) NKJV

No one can pay the price to redeem a soul and live forever, no matter how rich they may be. That’s a valid statement, but it may be missing the point. This gets us into a discussion of gravity which is the very essence of time.

Hypothesis 27

Souls Originate in the Center of the Earth

My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
(Psalms 139:15) KJV

We can combine the doctrine that we’ve existed from the foundation of the world (first cause), gravitation, the broad narrative of scripture, and redemption into a unified theory of everything and deduce the nature of the soul.

A Definition of Time

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
(Jeremiah 1:5) KJV

It’s helpful to understand the relationship that God has with time. Time and gravity are bound together in an intricate way so much so that our definition of gravity can be used to derive a definition of time.

Soul Destroying

And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
(Matthew 10:28) NKJV

“Soul destroying” is commonly used to mean “causing a person to feel very unhappy or depressed.” For example: the soul-destroying confinement of city life. This means that the soul is continuing in its unhappy state. It’s never taken to mean that the soul stops existing.

Hell is a Destination for Souls

Cutaway of planet Earth showing the crust, mantle, great gulf and hell.

He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.
(Job 33:18, 22) KJV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) have made an extensive study of how the zones of the interior of the Earth, or levels of hell, may be deduced from Biblical Hebrew and Greek.

Characteristics of the Heart

The anger of the LORD will not turn back Until He has executed and performed the thoughts of His heart. In the latter days you will understand it perfectly.
(Jeremiah 23:30) NKJV

In the Bible the heart does a lot more thinking than our minds do. This runs counter to conventional medical wisdom about the brain and heart, but are we worried about running counter to convention?

The Soul Conclusion

From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
(1 Timothy 1:6-7) KJV

Jesus warned us about hell as the place where unrepentant souls suffer torment. We’re supposed to tell the world that Jesus is the way to redeem our souls and avoid hell. That’s when you encounter this:

“There’s no such thing as a soul because science can’t detect it.”

Soul vs. Body

And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child’s soul come into him again. And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
(1 Kings 17-21-22) KJV

The connection between the soul and the blood, as the life of the individual, is strong but there’s more to it than that. The soul isn’t simply the result of the spirit dissolving in the blood.

Is the Soul Wet?

And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.
(1 Samuel 1:15) KJV

The ancient Hebrews had an innate sense that the soul was wet, or was in a liquid state, as is evident from the concept that it could be poured out.

A Blood-Soul Connection?

He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
(Psalms 72:14) KJV

When God breathed life into Adam he became a living soul, so there’s a connection between life, blood and breath (spirit), which is why the Children of Israel and the early Church had prohibitions on eating blood or meat with blood in it.
