And you get patience.

Love and power yield gentleness.

Love and perception yields joy.

Love and order yield peace.

Love and communication yield kindness.

Love and intelligence/wisdom/integrity yield goodness

Love and ? yield faithfulness. (perhaps the unknown maybe?)

Love and action/energy yield self-control!

Thoughts?

One must wonder where matter fits in all this.

Perhaps that's it!

That's the reason for the great, I AM!

The Son of Man is the epitome of creation!

He's the Son of Man while simultaneously being The Son of God!

When you look at the Sun you wonder how it has all that energy yet just doesn't burn us all up!

I believe the Lord's faithfulness and the unknown play on each other.

The Lord can choose to not know what we will do through His Son which allows for free will!

He is faithful and hopes we will be obedient. It's up to us!

Matter cannot be created or destroyed because, like The I AM, matter always was!

"Matter isn't" would be a contradiction in and of itself! It does account for the unknown!

"Matter is" must come before "Matter isn't!"

"Transforms from one form to another" accounts for life/creation and death/destruction!

Where the spirit fits in all this? Hmm.... That will require more pondering.

Thoughts anyone?

Jesus Himself said the Father sets the time for the end!

He didn't know when it will end!

Jesus allows freedom and unknown and faith to flourish perhaps even exist, though don't quote me on it.

The Spirit is all that's in between the Father and Son!

Fascinating!

The human soul/heart lies between the Holy Spirit and the physical human body.

The Spirit Is the ultimate soul! The Spirit is first, then the human soul, followed by the human physical body!

Giving away all the answers up in here!

The father accounts for matter.

Perhaps the Lord's self-control.

And homeschools his kids.

Honest question. Everywhere we look the universe is expanding right?

How can that be if we're not at the center? Shouldn't we be riding along on one vector with some of it?

Note: not a earth centrist, just honestly wondering what the scientific explanation is.

I see. So there is no center? There's a big nothing-nothing in the middle and space all on the skin of the balloon?

If it's planar there has to be a vector center. If you reverse all the vectors, they all intersect somewhere right?

But you already answered my question. Some stuff is moving slower than others (i.e. "With" us).

So if you have a single point of everything and you start stretching the fabric in all directions simultaneously, every single thing is moving at the same speed from the same initial point. But because that fabric is stretching uniformly, the only difference you see is related to the distance it is from you.

I get it.

When you start adding relative velocities within that metric expansion it gets kind of screwy...

Anyway.

....so it's not wrong to say that the earth is the center of the universe. Because everywhere is the center of the universe.

Didn't quite spit out my coffee, but laughed enough for my wife to ask me what's going on. Thanks for that.

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."

You may want to rethink the above premise,

God created everything that exists in the universe from nothing, i.e. He created all matter. Within time, matter has always existed because that's how we measure time (the measure of change) from the time of creation. Before creation, matter was nonexistent. To say God was before matter would be correct because He created it. Matter didn't exist until He created it, thus there was a "time" when matter didn't exist. I use the quotes because we can't measure that "time" before creation as we have no metric to do so.

I would be willing to bet love has laws in and of itself. There are certain things about love that if one thinks to self, "if I were to act in a way outside of this, something is definitely wrong."

Not so much that evil is there, but you wonder, this just isn't right. It's like plateauing. Neither good or bad but kind of in the "procrastination arena" where there's nothingness.


What would be the opposite of love? What is there outside of love?


For basketball players, I'm just using this as an example, there are certain kinds of actions that they do on a basketball court to progress, else they are just wasting time. People who do nothing on a court get pushed off the court. To squander and do nothing is a sin. It breaks the laws of advancement and progress. Squander and waste is a sin on progress and advancement. I would say.

Even a common thief has the ambition to do something, to get somewhere, get going to make progress of some kind. The poorest of the poor out on the street do stuff. No one just sits in suspended animation. That would be sin on action itself. Everyone moves.

No one spends their entire life asleep. Yes there are things like comas and vegetable states. Who knows what people do when they are dead. We only speculate on these things anyway.
