The quantum secretStory: Going where angels fear to tread, I’m convinced that quantum physics is God’s last stand. And his first stand. It’s no mystery that God is light. Man, created in His image, was also light at the beginning.
The Fall was more catastrophic than we can imagine. How can a massless being of light comprehend what it means to become localized, to have weight, to be grounded? Yet that’s precisely what happened. God severed ties by pronouncing curses on the serpent, then Eve, then Adam and finally, the world. All of that is recorded in Genesis 3. The really bad news–changing from a light wave into a grounded particle–wasn’t revealed until much later. But God has a sense of humor. We think of God as being “really big.” Who would ever guess he’s also “really small?” In fact, that’s how he’s retained ownership and planted his flag. At the atomic and sub-atomic level where particles appear and disappear, first here and then instantly, a million miles there...like it or not, that’s God’s territory! Here’s a list, in no particular order, of some of the weird aspects of quantum physics. I should say, of God’s character. 1–Particles making up atoms can either be particles or waves. Particles have weight, waves don’t. 2–Atomic particles can be everywhere at once. This is called non-locality. 3–Particles entangle with each other. This connection, under post-Fall conditions, is tenuous and falls apart (decoheres)as distance increases between the two. 4–Our world is digital, not analog. All changes occur in distinct steps, not sliding from one state to another. The simplest digital representation is a “zero” state (off) and a “one” state (on). 5–Depending on who you prefer, Niels Bohr or Hugh Everett, our thoughts either affect subatomic particles or they don’t. If it’s the latter, parallel universes are created every second. 6–Time is like a bus that speeds up or slows down. It’s all “relative,” as they say, meaning your point of view. 7–The energy contained in purely “empty space” is mind-blowing. 8–Particles confronted with impossibly thick walls can simply tunnel through. 9–Atoms are mostly empty space. Since we’re composed of atoms, what we are is...mostly empty space. 10–What we see around us may be a holographic projection, only a shadow on the wall. 11–There are 4 dimensions (length, width, height and time) in our world. String theory says more than 10 exist. Bible pages are dripping with quantum phenomena.

Thanks to the great people around here and those who came from afar in the face of the impending snowstorm, the premiere showing at the Canton Rialto was a sellout, standing room only, and many people had to be turned away. We quickly arranged a second showing at 9 pm for those who could make it, and due to popular demand we will have a showing again on Thursday, January 28th at 6:30.
Thanks for the great support and we hope to see you there!
Thursday, January 21st at 6:30 pm, please join us for our latest documentary world premiere!
The Canton Rialto Theatre, Canton, PA. Tickets $5.00.
Background: I’m a visual guy. My chances of remembering increase slightly when there’s a drawing involved. What I’ve mapped out here is God’s plan from the beginning before time to the end of time. Right now, we’re locked in the “B” world, the one which Paul implores us to “wake up from your drunken stupor...” (I Corinthians 15:34)
Comments: Genesis 1:2 is typically translated “Now the earth was formless and empty...” but it can also be translated “Now the earth became formless and empty...” Since God often does things in triple sets, having an “A, B and C” world makes sense, each with its own set of natural laws. The “C” world, for example, won’t have a sun or any sea. Gold is transparent. The curse has been removed. (Revelation 21, 22) There will be no death, no decay. Blood won’t be needed anymore. Everything is light.
Nobody knows for sure when Satan was cast down to earth except Jesus, who admits in Luke 10:18 “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.” The “A” world seems a likely time for Satan’s plunge. After all, Genesis 1:2 says “darkness was [my note: already] over the surface of the deep...” Revelation 12:7-9 describes the war in heaven while Isaiah 14 describes the pride that led to his downfall. That pride then infected us all once Satan tempted Eve with the killer hook “you will be like God.” (Genesis 3:5) The “A” world may have been similar to Eden pre-fall. Psalm 104:2 says God “wraps himself in light as with a garment.” Adam and Eve, as God’s image, were beings of light too. When Satan was conducting interviews for each person’s script, Ezekiel 28:14 says Satan “walked among the fiery stones.” That’s us! Our speech was a digital sort of communication– without interference, perfectly transmitted. Looking to the future (and the past, as the clothesline theory indicates) Zephaniah 3:9 says, “For at that time I will change the speech of the peoples to a pure speech.” Here’s an outrageous proposal. What if there had been a “chosen nation” in the “A” world called the US? Could that be why the bible makes no mention of the US in bible prophecy in the “B” world and why Israel now occupies chosen nation status? The “B” world is made up of atoms whose substance blinks in and out of existence. First they’re a visible particle, then they’re an invisible wave. The world’s building blocks are mostly empty space. (An atom’s spaciousness is equal to a golfball inside a football stadium.) Solomon, the smartest man the world has ever seen, said it best in Ecclesiastes 1:2, “Emptiness, emptiness...all is empty.” The “B” world seems solid because our senses are blunted. We’re blind to the very small and the very large. It’s as if the world were made of swiss cheese and we’ve got thick mittens on our hands. We try in vain to feel for the holes. The “B” world’s life source is found in blood. Blood that cries out from the ground. Blood that is supposed to be sacrificially shed by animals without defect and ultimately, by one human without defect–Jesus. Leviticus 17:11 says “For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar.” The biological information driving this tremendous life is encoded in DNA. The cosmic information driving everything is encoded in the Word. It’s all about Israel. Jesus was, is and forever will be Jewish. Gentiles, slow to recognize their Jewish roots, are included only by the grace of God. |
