Everlasting Chains

And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;

(Jude 1:6) NKJV

What could the everlasting chains under darkness be? Is this a metaphor? Is this designed to express the idea of a spiritual concept? Is this accurate physics?

YEC Spaghetti Theology

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

(John 16:13) KJV

Young Earth creationists (YECs) have been fighting the good fight for decades but it has led to the current situation where it looks like Christianity and intellectual exploration are different ends of a spectrum. Now we’re at a crossroads.

YECs have been bogged down on two fronts:

  1. Science vs. faith,
  2. creation vs. evolution.

The Broad Narrative of Physics

See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.

(Colossians 2:8) ESV

It’s important that any theory we propose has to be congruent with the broad narrative of scripture. However, by using deductive reasoning, we superimpose onto this a broad narrative of physics.

The Purpose of Creation

In all his wisdom and insight God did what he had purposed, and made known to us the secret plan he had already decided to complete by means of Christ. This plan, which God will complete when the time is right, is to bring all creation together, everything in heaven and on earth, with Christ as head.

All things are done according to God’s plan and decision; and God chose us to be his own people in union with Christ because of his own purpose, based on what he had decided from the very beginning. Let us, then, who were the first to hope in Christ, praise God’s glory!

(Ephesians 1:8-12) Good News Translation

One of the things which allows Matty’s Paradigm to be a consistent with the broad narrative of scripture is understanding that creation has a specific purpose. This purpose harmonizes physics with spirituality.

Saved by Faith not Works

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

(Ephesians 2:8-10) NKJV

Some people take the tree of life in Eden to mean that Adam’s first body was intended to die, and that the tree of life would be made available to him at some point as a reward for good behavior.

Are You Being Drawn?

Jesus answered them, “Do not grumble among yourselves. No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day. It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me— not that anyone has seen the Father except he who is from God; he has seen the Father.

(John 6:43-46) Good News Translation

Agape gravity is a field emitted from the center of the Earth which propels our soul upward toward heaven. Our natural tendency is to be weighed down with sin and sink downward because of the power of Mosaic gravity, the law.

He Had by the Spirit

Slow-motion incense smoke.

Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the vestibule, its houses, its treasuries, its upper chambers, its inner chambers, and the place of the mercy seat; and the plans for all that he had by the Spirit, of the courts of the house of the Lord, of all the chambers all around, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries for the dedicated things; also for the division of the priests and the Levites, for all the work of the service of the house of the Lord, and for all the articles of service in the house of the Lord.

(1 Chronicles 28:11-13) NKJV

Now we’re going to bring all of our ideas together and propose a mechanism for the action of spiritual entities. In the passage above King David had by the spirit the plans for building of the temple.

The Mind of the Spirit

Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

(Romans 8:26-27) NKJV

Let’s look at the context of the passage. Likewise the Spirit. Spirit is capitalized which means it’s specifically referring to the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the comforter which helps us in our weakness.

The Heart and Mind of the Soul

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

(Romans 8:6-8) NKJV

We deduced that the soul is physically gravity, but functionally it’s the mind and heart. As such, souls, including God the father, have a mind and a heart. The separation of mind and heart is a pattern in creation.

Spirits and Gravity

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

(Romans 8:5) NKJV

We previously developed the rationale that spiritual messengers, referred to sometimes as angels, are a combination of spirit (vapor) and soul (gravity). This was described in the post Holograms, Relativity and the Soul.
