| Q3: Discuss "GOD is light" 1Jo 1:5 � This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. Since Scripture is mostly poetry, this statement is a simile.God functions as light functions. God is similar to light functions. One of the most amazing things about light is the duality nature of light.Light has two natures, a wave nature and a particle nature. This is studied more here. (1) The duality of light.. The duality of GOD's power can be seen in this verse:- Isa 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. We see GOD creating a tree of function and dysfunction. We see GOD creating a tree of "good" and "evil". We see GOD creating a tree of "function" and "dysfunction". Light comes with intensities, more light or less light (darkness). God engineers this intensity of Himself so should a broken relationship to HIMcome, there exists the ability to exist with less intensity of GOD. (There is no possibility of existing without GOD's sustaining presence and power) For example : Dark is a term humans use to explain areas of less light. Cold is a term humans use to explain places where less heat is felt. Evil is the absence of God's presence in man's lives. Evil or dysfunctionon it's own does not exist. All these things may have been shown to usby Albert Einstein, as U Tube videos suggest, but I bring this to readersbecause GOD reveals Himself as a spectrum of His intensity of power.Ordinary humans in broken relationships with GOD cannot exist in Hisfullest revelation of power, so we have to "sense" GOD with less of Hispresence and less of His power shining through us. I hope this makes sense. As Moses got nearer to GOD his face shone so brightly, sinners around himwanted a veil placed over his face. And Moses was the meekest human there ever was apart from Jesus walking on the earth. Did Jesus' face shine likeMoses ? Yes, but only once did the Father shine through His Son in fullestglory. Ex 34:33 And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face. Mt 17:2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.Mt 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. So the universe revelations of power exists under only threegeneral conditions of the intensity of GOD :- If GOD should take away his power of quantum, all universe revelations would vanish with HIM, including all His natural laws, so option (3) cannot exist. That only leaves two. This duality is a natural law of light, and thus shows us the pictures of God and His power coming to us in a world of dysfunction. While God might allow the duality of his powers to exist, God is not the author ofdysfunction, even if humans live in such a world sustained by GOD. Isa 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Notice light is formed naturally but darkness and dysfunctionmust be filled or engineered or created. This "duality of choice" comes from ourright to choose to live in all of God's pre sence, or less of God's presence. We know right because we sense wrong.We see white because we see black.We make moral decision because we know immoral affects.We feel goodness because we know bad.We sense hope because we experience hoplessness.We feel extreme joy because we know depression's glum.Everything about God's world in broken relationships to Him is revealedto us in degrees of spectrum. We are on a journey moving more and moretowards more and more of God's presence and His fullest glory.This relationship journey is called salvation in Scripture. (2) How does duality work ? When light comes out from it's source, light always moves in it's particle nature.The particle nature of light is also it's personal nature, the nature we can see and feel.The personal nature is solid and if made polarized can be very powerful, able to cut through objects like butter cut with a knife. 2Th 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:Hab 3:4 And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power. However when light bounces off other objects in the presence of a MEDIUM,the light changes to it's wave nature. It is through the medium we perceive the affect of a change in the nature of light's properties. Without the medium theproperty could not be observed. The wave property of light is called in the Bible the Spirit Nature by translators. It's really known in Hebrew as the wind.The wind is a good simile describing the power of duality that is felt, but cannotbe seen because wind is a wave energy carried inside media called air. Joh 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. With these words Jesus is saying the Holy Spirit functions as a medium.For the wave properties of the Father to be observed in us, as we choose to allow such a flow of power to move through us, an affect of the Holy Spirit is seen, called the second birth. The Hebrew word "ruwach", is a "special administrator of wind". The picture of "wind" implies both a power source (the wave energy of GOD) and a medium in which this affect is felt, ie the "wind of GOD". Today as Science discoveries more about mediums, we learn to discern the medium's "magic properties" on light. With a medium in place, light can be magnified, diminished and made virtual. With a medium in place crooked light rays (sinners) appear straight (or righteous). With a medium in place less of God's power can flow without destroying the object the medium is allowing others to observe. Thus to make duality work, the light from the Father bounces off the Holy Spirit (acting as a MEDIUM) and allows others to observe a universe of dysfunction, when looking through the medium. There is a Scripture description of this secondary source of power revelation, but we want to make it clear from the outset, the moon is not the Holy Spirit. The word in Hebrew for Holy Spirit is "ruwach", which means "following the path", and tells us the function of the Holy Spirit is a simile of function like the moon, following a path prescribed by God for allowing a world of dysfunction to exist. Ge 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night The Holy Spirit uses the Father's power in an administrative sense,and in the radiated method, (rather than using it's own power) the Holy Spirit is able to sustain a world of dysfunction without destroying the sinner's in it. Notice the Holy Spirit rules the darkness, a symbol of sin in people's lives, the broken relationship to GOD. (3) Prove duality exists in the Godhead ? To prove duality exists in the Family of GOD, we must study the names of each member of GOD and see if any member of GOD has two common functional names, one expressing itself in its particle or personal property and the other expressing itself in it's wave or spirit property. To begin our study, we will use the oldest book in the Bible, the book of Job. The Hebrew words in Job are the oldest and most ancient, thus we can becertain to find the names of GOD and each member of GOD. How many names will be found in Job ? And do any Names show changes in duality ? Job 40:1 � Moreover the LORD "Yahwah" answered Job, and said, 2 Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty "Shadday" instruct him? he that reproveth God "Ellowaah", let him answer it. There are three Names of GOD listed in this passage of Job. These names are (1) Yahwah (2) Shadday and (3) Ellowaah If you study these Hebrew words, only one word shows duality of function. Yahwah means Father or Jesus depending upon context, but often it's a reference to Jesus talking on behalf of the Family of GOD. Shadday is a member of GOD. Ellowaah seems to reference the Father, the chief strong authority in the Family. Notice this parallel comment with the Shadday and another functional name. Job 33:4 The Spirit "Ruwach" of God "el" hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty "Shadday" hath given me life.Job 32:8 But there is a spirit "ruwach" in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty "Shadday" giveth them understanding. The Shadday is the personal revelation of this co-eternal member of GOD. Ge 17:1 � And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD "Yahwah" appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty "Shadday" God "el" ; walk before me, and be thou perfect. Notice two members of GOD are mentioned here walking before Abram, Jesus(Yahwah) and the Shadday. Eze 1:24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty "Shadday", the voice of speech, as the noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings. Notice in the presence of the Father in heaven the Shadday speaks and all other angels let down their wings in reverence. Now notice the wave property or spirit property of the Shadday, showing it's duality. Job 33:4 The Spirit "ruwach" of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty "Shadday" hath given me life. The Holy Spirit gives us ongoing life as a wind of salvation. Ge 2:7 And the LORD "Yahwah" God "Elohiym" formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Notice here the Family of GOD referenced as "Elohiym". All members are present. Jesus "Yahwah" speaks and breaths, and other members of GOD are assumed to take part, a mystery; the breath of life. We know from other studies the breath is a simile of the wind of the Shadday, and this wind or quantum comes as a secondary power from the Father. Thus the Shadday is the administrator of the quantum breath of life in all living things, is a natural conclusion. This administration of the Father's power through the Holy Spirit, was commanded by Jesus as the Creator of all living things. Ps 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God "Elohiym" ; and renew a right spirit "ruwach' within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit "qodosh" "ruwach" from me Notice the breath of salvation, the second birth, is a literal creation just as the Creation of animals first on earth was literal, a mystery power from all the mem bers of GOD "Elohiym". But also notice such salvation as a breath or wind is administrated by the Holy Spirit. These few examples show the Holy Spirit is the duality function of the Shadday, the third co-eternal name for a member of the Family of GOD. See studies on the Shadday for more. See studies on the Holy Spirit for more. In summary, duality of function exists in GOD, as the similes to light tell us. May GOD bless and deepen your love to Jesus, our Saviour andthe wonderful functions of GOD upholding our lives in His presence. Shalom |
