The biblical "spirit" means thoughts ( information ).

Ya um we kind of figured those things out. They are called earthquakes and quite natural.

"And Jesus said unto them, "And whom do you say that I am?"

They replied,

"You are the totaliter aliter, the vestigious trinitatum who speaks to us in the modality of Christo-monism.”

"You are he who heals our ambiguities and overcomes the split of angst and existential estrangement; you are he who speaks of the theonomous viewpoint of the analogia entis, the analogy of our being and the ground of all possibilities.”

"You are the impossible possibility who brings to us, your children of light and children of darkness, the overwhelming roughness’ in the midst of our fraught condition of estrangement and brokenness in the contiguity and existential anxieties of our ontological relationships.”

“You are my Oppressed One, my soul's shalom, the One who was, who is, and who shall be, who has never left us alone in the struggle, the event of liberation in the lives of the oppressed struggling for freedom, and whose blackness is both literal and symbolic.”

And Jesus replied, "Huh?" "

No scientist knows that the whole earth is going to shake violently and wobble until the crust is totally cracked up and hot molten lava pours out from deep inside the earth to melt the crust and everything on it.

That happened in the film "2012", so obviously the scientists know about it. But I'm still hoping you can give me a date.

It's very simple. The word "spirit" in the Bible means information that God created. The Spirit of God is information ( vibrations ), which is His created computing code to form visible objects and all the thoughts that His created beings think with.

There is no information in the bible. No genuine data. Just vicarious nonsense.

There is without a doubt some questionable stuff in the bible.....but for those whose intuitive faculty is sufficiently developed to grok the gist of the allegories, metaphors, rhetoric, analogies, similes, parables, and figure of speech used therein to try and convey a sense of the glory beyond belief non-conceptual reality that is.on the other side of the conceptual narrative, it certainly is not all nonsense....

A conceptual narrative is not information in the scientific sense of the word (data).

I'd agree that non-conceptual experience is possible, but our assumptions about what that represents are varied and speculative.

Agreed...I misunderstood the intent of the precise context of the last sentence...I took that as a general statement...sorry...

Agreed..and that is the reason for the mystery behind the truly religious life, about which, even the aspirant has no real idea where the practice is taking them, all their expectations based on assumptions are continuously being revealed as vanity......

The Bible can't teach anything because it can't speak or know whether or not you're able to understand the prophecies. Christians get all kinds of information out if it that's totally useless other than using it to try control other people with their false interpretations.

I already wrote in this forum that I was created as the voice of our Creator so how could I be the Creator? But the words that He has me write and speak come directly from His mind. If He wanted you or I to know the day the earth begins to shake violently, then you and I would be informed by Him on what day that would start happening. Since I don't know, then you won't get to know that particular day, either.

Looks like you started today in Nepal !

There will be plenty of earthquakes before the whole earthSHAKE.

Why are you in this forum? You should be in the funny forum instead.

 

[outhouse]

Why are you in this forum?

To further my education, and help those less educated when possible.

I am not happy when people try and proselytize positions based on complete lack of knowledge on a topic they demand other follow as well. I will voice my opinion pointing out the weakness of their position.

I have a lot of knowledge to share with those who are open-minded enough to believe it. Your opinions can only be believed by another person. Besides, I haven't seen any knowledge pouring out of your mind since you started playing games with me in this forum. That must mean you're to weak to share any knowledge with me.

Visible objects are not real.

You haven't proven to me that you're made with hard physical matter.

All our senses are only illusions

Why do you fear me

Carbon is a name of an illusion

The religious Jews tried to kill me

I'm still the same voice that I was back then.

I'm only a danger to those who don't know me.

No one will ever take you seriously here.

So why are you here?
