Timothy, keep safe what has been entrusted to your care. Avoid the profane talk and foolish arguments of what some people wrongly call “Knowledge.” For some have claimed to possess it, and as a result they have lost the way of faith.
God’s grace be with you all.
(1 Timothy 6:20-21) Good News Translation
We like wry humor here at Matty’s Paradigm. A double-dose of irony with a side of snark. Here’s the definition of what you call Astronomy after it’s been filtered through the lens of Biblical cosmology.
If one day the sky could be measured and the foundations of the earth explored, only then would he reject the people of Israel because of all they have done. The Lord has spoken.
(Jeremiah 31:37) Good News Translation
Axiom IV is “The Internal Structure of Earth and Size of the Cosmos is Unknowable.” We can deduce Principle I from the following physical evidence, empirical observations or established theories which are part of Axiom IV.
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
(Jeremiah 17:9) KJV
We, Matty, have a science background and a SciFi passion. We’re also Christian. We thought that it would be cool to write a best selling SciFi adventure which could explore the spiritual ramifications of Artificial Intelligence.
And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
(Jeremiah 51:37) KJV
Babylon became a dwelling place for dragons after it had no human inhabitants. Dragons, or dinosaurs as the case may be, don’t live in the same places as humans.
And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it.
(Jeremiah 49:33) KJV
Hazor became a dwelling for dragons after the people had been driven away. That’s why any fossil remains in the area won’t have humans and dinosaurs in the same sediments.
Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.
(Jeremiah 10:22) KJV
We are told repeatedly by Jeremiah that dragons only inhabit places where there are no humans, or from where the humans have already been driven out. Judah only became a den of dragons after it became desolate.
“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
(John 15:18-19) NKJV
Today (technically speaking this date in 2019) an atheist tweeted three Bible verses at us as an accusation. The accusation was that we’re not only wrong, but condemned to hell because of what we’re doing. The irony is palpable.
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
Obviously God didn’t ordain everyone to be a prophet unto the nations, so that part refers specifically to Jeremiah, but why would God know only Jeremiah before he became an embryo? Surely he knows all of us. We deduced from scripture that souls have existed since before creation.
Investigating the distinction between soul and spirit has lead to a conclusion: our souls existed with God before the world was created. Creation was made to give our souls life with free will.
Each soul is as unique as every person on Earth is unique. There’s a lot about gravity that we don’t yet understand as it forms the essential nature of the consciousness and causes each of us to have a unique character. For want of a better way to describe it, we refer to each gravity node (soul) having a unique frequency.
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.
