The Physics of the Gospel

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,

(Hebrews 12:1) English Standard Version

Believing in Jesus Christ is the power to overcome the gravity of the Earth (Mosaic gravity or the law) which is the force of attraction that’s pulling us down into hell.

Written on Our Hearts

For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them

(Romans 2:14-15) ESV

The Bible tells us that the truth about God has been made known to us all. It also tells us that the moral law of God has been written on our hearts. When we consider the events of the first day, up to and including the development of cellular life with replicating DNA, it’s not too far fetched to propose that the word of God was encoded on that day.

We are Without Excuse

For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.

(Romans 1:20) ESV

The beauty of nature is proof of God. We know right from wrong. Disbelief is active, not passive, it’s not the default state. Popular science (SciPop) is an attempt to account for human existence in such a way that it appears God isn’t necessary.

God has Shown it to Us

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.

(Romans 1:18-19) ESV

Our conscience is why we experience guilt. We don’t have to be told when we’ve done something wrong: we know. We may act like it doesn’t matter but we still know that we did something wrong because of guilt.

Guilt

My guilt overwhelms me— it is a burden too heavy to bear.

(Psalms 38:4) NLT

Guilt is the fact of having committed a breach of conduct especially violating law and involving a penalty, the state of one who has committed an offense especially consciously, feelings of deserving blame especially for imagined offenses or from a sense of inadequacy, a feeling of deserving blame for offenses.

– Guilt, definition (Merriam-Webster)

Deliver Your Soul From Death

Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

(Psalms 33:18-19) KJV

Being dead doesn’t mean that we cease to exist. Dead or alive refers to the condition of our soul in terms of it’s relationship to God. God has power over the life and death of the soul, through the sacrifice of Christ on the cross.

There’s no other power available which can keep your soul alive. Only faith in Jesus Christ can deliver your soul from death.

Alive or Dead?

And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

(Colossians 2:13) KJV

Paul’s writing to people who are metabolically alive and telling them that they were dead, but now they’re alive. Clearly he’s not talking about biology or their bodies, he’s talking about their souls. We’ve identified two states of the soul:

  1. Alive (quickened),
  2. dead.

During the days of our time on Earth we can be either dead or alive while our body’s still breathing. The difference between being dead or alive is whether or not we’ve trusted in Jesus Christ and been forgiven of our sins (quickened).

When we take our last breath it’s not the end of existence. We continue to be conscious, aware of our environment and external stimuli. Our soul is a gravity node which continues in one of two states after our body dies.

  1. Alive (quickened) in a new body in heaven,
  2. dead, but receiving stimuli and interacting with the environment,
    • in hell (temporarily), then
    • in the lake of fire (permanently).

June 18 (12) – Dead or Alive

All souls are eternal, however, they’re either dead or alive. The death of our body isn’t the end of consciousness, and the death of our soul isn’t the end of existence.


The Gospel is Physics

But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—

(Ephesians 2:4-5) Good News Translation

Passing from death to life is referred to as being quickened, q. We’re quickened when we put our faith in Jesus Christ. It’s also called being saved, or “born again.”

The Gospel is Physics (logic)

  • IF being dead in sins (pG) is when we’re under the power of the law (M),
    • AND we receive the forgiveness of sin (A),
      • when we’re quickened (q) through faith in Jesus Christ,
  • THEN pGxq=A. (F=MA)

The Gospel as Physics

“Make the people sit down,” Jesus told them. (There was a lot of grass there.) So all the people sat down; there were about five thousand men. Jesus took the bread, gave thanks to God, and distributed it to the people who were sitting there. He did the same with the fish, and they all had as much as they wanted. When they were all full, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces left over; let us not waste a bit.” So they gathered them all and filled twelve baskets with the pieces left over from the five barley loaves which the people had eaten.

(John 6:10-13) Good News Translation

It’s possible to write the gospel of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ as a physical formula, but that’s just algebra, can we prove a real-world connection between Physics and the Bible?
