What Fell First?

Matty's Paradigm a unified theory of everything

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

(2 Corinthians 5:21) NKJV

God can’t abide sin, he can’t look on it. Yet in order for free will to be a possibility, sin has to be possible. How does a perfectly pure and righteous God create a system which allows evil to exist? He has to go against his own nature and become sin for us.

The Light of the Knowledge of the Glory of God

For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

(2 Corinthians 4:6) NKJV

Sadly there are people who’ve chosen darkness. They’re in darkness and that’s how they relate to the world. If we show them light they’re going to reject it because it’s not darkness.

The purpose of creation is to bring about the permanent physical separation of light from darkness, day from night, good from evil.

We do not Preach Ourselves

For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake.

(2 Corinthians 4:5) NKJV

So this isn’t about us. We’re playing by the rules and showing how to interpret evidence. The people of the world today don’t want to hear it because they like the interpretation that they already have. They’re going to lie to keep what they’ve got. They can do that.

Who do not Believe

O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge—by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.

(1 Timothy 6:20-21) NKJV

What you believe is a choice. The way that this works in the case of our YouTuber is that he’s made a choice of paradigm. He believes in popular science (SciPop), which, among other things, is a set of axioms which you have to accept in order for the paradigm to be true.

Whose Minds the god of This Age has Blinded

But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

(2 Corinthians 4:3-4) NKJV

If a god is something that people believe will take care of them and make sure that they’re okay, then the god of this age is popular science (SciPop). SciPop is telling everyone that there’s no God, no heaven, no hell, nothing to worry about.

Nor Handling the Word of God Deceitfully

But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.

(2 Corinthians 4:2) NKJV

We’ve not been deceitful about how we’ve handled the Word of God. At the outset we committed to a deductive approach based on the premise that God can’t lie. If God can’t lie then the Bible is true.

Where are We 2020?

You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day, Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you.

(Psalms 91:5-7) NKJV

The big news for the first half of 2020 is COVID-19 and the impact that it’s having on all of our lives. We’re still spiraling down the rabbit hole of the pandemic and no one knows how deep it goes.

“And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” Says the LORD of hosts;

(Malachi 3:11) NKJV

The beauty of writing every day is that once you have written everyday for a year you begin to cover your own tracks. Sometimes this really helps to refine and enhance the ideas that we’re developing. Other times it means we see a snap shot of where we were a year ago.
