Method

So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried.

(Luke 16:22) NKJV

A common response to the human soul is that there isn’t one because science can’t detect it. However, we first detected gravitational waves in 2015. What else can’t science detect? We don’t know, science can’t detect it.

Constraining Obligations

They shall take care of all the furnishings of the Tent of Meeting and fulfill obligations for the Israelites by attending to the service of the tabernacle.

(Numbers 3:8) BSB

A note which was written in an old Bible of ours (which somehow got lost) was taken from something a preacher said at Calvary Baptist Church in Carrboro, NC. We have always felt encouraged by it.

Cherish the tender Spirit of your constraining obligations.

God: אֱלֹהִ֑ים – elohim

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

(Genesis 1:1-2) ESV

A word frequently translated God is the Hebrew elohim. What’s interesting is that the word is plural, denoting more than one. It’s not a problem because we can resolve it with God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The Witch of Endor

Now Samuel had died, and all Israel had lamented for him and buried him in Ramah, in his own city. And Saul had put the mediums and the spiritists out of the land.

Then the woman said, “Whom shall I bring up for you?” And he said, “Bring up Samuel for me.”

And the king said to her, “Do not be afraid. What did you see?” And the woman said to Saul, “I saw a spirit ascending out of the earth.”

And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up?

(1 Samuel 28:3, 11, 13, 15) KJV

You may be skeptical of the idea that there’s an underworld realm of the dead deep in the interior of the Earth, or that the souls of the Old Testament saints had to wait there for the messiah. That’s understandable.

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.

Words are Spirit

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

(John 6:63) KJV

If words are spirits, then, unfortunately, swear words are evil spirits. With that in mind, you may have seen articles going around with headlines that sound like this one:

Swearing is Actually a Sign of More Intelligence, Not Less

– Something that scientists Say

Eat My Flesh and Drink My Blood

Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”

(John 6:53-58) NKJV

Jesus is undeterred, at this point all the hard work is done. What needed to be said has been said. He summarizes again. Jesus is speaking plainly about the transformation of energy, not cannibalism.

  • IF eating Jesus’ flesh and drinking his blood, E, gives eternal life, q,
    • AND believing in Jesus Christ the Word of God, B, gives eternal life, q,
  • THEN eating and drinking (E) and believing (B) are the same thing.

The Living Bread

Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”

(John 6:47-51) KJV

Jesus describes the chain of causality in the transition of energy from one form to another. If we believe (B) in Jesus Christ (q) we’ll be given everlasting life because we are, energetically, eating the bread of life (Fq) which is believing in Jesus.

The Midst of my Body

I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.

(Daniel 7:15) KJV

We find confirmation of our hypothesis that spiritual entities are volatile compounds maintained by a gravity node by circling back to the work we did yesterday on the kidneys. Kidneys and the renal system regulate the blood and filter out toxins and impurities. If our hypothesis is correct, then receiving visions from spiritual messengers should affect our kidneys.
