GRACE GOSPEL CHURCH MINISTRY’S
PASTORAL NEW YEAR’S ADDRESS
Pastor George D. Cutler
December 31, 2009
II Corinthians 5:17 (from the Greek Text): “so that if anyone in Christ; a new creation; the old things having passed away, lo, all things having been and are new.”
“Why we are Secure, Regardless of Physical Life’s Insufficiencies”
I am gratefully blessed of God to address you on the latter days of 2009 and subsequent to embarking on the first day of the new decade and year 2010. As I sincerely declare again tonight, I truly thank God for all whom He has placed in the Grace Gospel Church Ministry. I definitely thank God for every one of you, first, those who enthusiastically embrace purely the Grace Doctrines, as well as those whose growth we are continuing to daily petition God for, according to His Will. We have conclusively moved into a decade of ministering of which our charge from God basically vehicles on four wheels: 1). teaching the Sovereign Grace of God in Election to salvation, 2). espousing ontology (actualization of existence) solely in God’s Divine Decree in Eternity exuding manifestations postured exclusively in the Time Capsule, 3). distinguishing the Scriptures according to what systematic study evinces are seven dispensations and their corresponding covenants plus 4). exegeses of all Scriptures from the various copies of the original Greek manuscripts through the process of utilizing the three-fold scrutiny of grammatically, historically and contextually analyzing their contents. In pursuance of such advances, we are ardently aware that these methodologies of studying and teaching God’s Word without doubt, dissociates us from mainline orthodox Christendom but we are convincingly encouraged that the execution of these endeavors requisitions us closer to the truth for the Grace Church in the Grace Dispensation. As we congregate in the sanctuary at this hour, as always, my prayer is that most of you will, if you have not already; internalize these ingressions in agreement with the commission of this ministry. We were formed to utilize these modes of channels through which the coordination of these glorious truths are garnered, as we truly believe that this was God’s intent in structuring the Grace Gospel Church Ministry.
From the inception of this ministry and assembly more than eleven years ago, centuries-old traditional, as well as the modern and denominational Church Cultures, has comprised the structured landscape of majority Religious Systems; religiously yet secularly legitimized and propagated in various formats of faithful societies. They are astutely skilled in promulgating of their tenets, yet their practices falter in fulfilling genuine spiritual hunger. Truly scriptural thirst languishingly continues mostly, inaccessible to average church attendees. Generally speaking, Spiritual Epistemology is inaccessible because many popular ministries’ priorities are continuously based on trendy styles instead of scriptural substance. As a consequence of this, many of God’s people abide persistently in the time loops of daily burdens and are mentally fatigued while traveling through life, continually barred from peaceful steadfastness in the knowledge of the security that is in Christ. Too many continue to be in dire need of genuine spiritual exercises in activities that exude the spiritually fresh nourishment of living in this world while yet transcending beyond it. Too many are in desperate necessitation of indwelling of the Holy Spirit guiding their mental capacities deep into the wells of matured spiritual perfect knowledge as the emphasis. Matured spiritual perfect knowledge emanates from correct exegeses of the Scriptures, extracting a firm "no" to unscriptural yet constantly sought after fleshly aggradations.
As we dutifully investigate the conveyance of “our Gospel, the Mystery,” its distinction is that it was revealed to the Apostle Paul for the Grace Church in the present dispensation. In its scrutiny, it denounces in scriptural "interposition" and "nullification" the conniving methods being utilized in worship services and daily living instructions and directives, which in effect rebuff the recipients of salvation an effective walk in God. As an alternative of God’s people basking in the scriptural assurances of the Grace Covenant, all too many are yet terrified by the trials of day and daunted by uncertainties of night in great trepidation and continuous apprehensiveness. But things must progress above such carnal mentality. Undertakings of this must persevere in militating against the institution of Synergism, which inevitably must be alleviated. Actualizations in the sphere of Eternal life dissuade such imaginary illusions, as they appear. We convincingly perceive that in this unsettled era of ministry operations, the entire edifice of Synergism must be scripturally challenged………yes even in spite of its tradition, misperceived comfort and appeal, it must be profoundly shaken at its unscriptural roots.
As we persevere in this endeavor, the ultimate goal of this ministry engenders dismantling the unrealistic hope invested in earthly, temporary entropies (measure of existing disorders). This is so necessary because the consequences of prioritizing earthen objects are inevitably felt by every instinct of our insecurity in this life. Unfortunately, too many of today’s religious establishments are socially open to all yet spiritually open to none. In effect, God’s people are habitually insensitive to the larger society and facts of the BIG PICTURE of eternal living because such is veiled from the majority by their daily challengers in the temporary loops of time. In this mindset, vast numbers are proscribed from “thinking outside of the box.” Yet, in lieu of such sightlessness, the essence of all things abiding in Christ with eternal benefits thereof must become a dominating issue in every assembly …………even as we have often stated, in crowding the daily consciences of the spiritually informed. The interfacing of the genuine Grace message implores for traditional and denominational alteration and in this endeavor, we must stand up and confront all oppressors of “the liberty that is in Christ.” We must face those that are champions of orthodox religiosities and move within the strength and dignities of the Word of God against all unscriptural Church Cultures that foist incorrect doctrinal teachings. This will require utmost fortitude and courage in confronting humanly institutionalized and authorized orthodoxy. Undeniably, this is reverberatingly the struggle integrated …not slightly but totally in the eternal sphere, which powerfully entrenches victory that overshadows all that misperceive earthly gain as godliness (I Timothy 6:5-6).
More than eleven years of the Grace Gospel Ministry’s course have engendered us hewing strictly to exegeses of the Scriptures, in us recognizing that we cannot conscientiously be institutionally conventional in tenets of Hermeneutics (explicating or interpreting concepts, theories and principles). Accurate exegeses of the Scriptures enable freedom to garner the liberty that is concretely entrenched in eternal benefits of the Grace Covenant. Knowledge of the Eternal Decree of God alleviates the lion’s share of doubts and uncertainties that grip too many of God’s people and constitute some of the cruelest instincts that mostly affect them in negative manners. Other purposes of scriptural comprehensions induce alleviating indifferent, unconcerned saints from lethargy while summoning spiritually conscientious appeal for unconditionally serving God. Of course, this must be strictly viewed in the light of scriptural facts; in knowing that all that is obtained and subsequently gained in this sense is solely the results of God’s courses for individual lives (II Timothy 1:19-21).
In this sense, it would be hypocritical to fail to acknowledge that what has been allowed in progressively walking in Christ must be solely traced to God’s enabling Grace. This without question forever forbids us from thinking that it is our own will and doings that exert positive movements bringing forth monumental changes in manifested testimony (Ephesians 2:10). Progressive legitimacy of considerable progress from daily problems of depravity is far from having been resolved in the various facets of our lives. This is indeed evidenced by the deep rumblings of some discontent in our lives, which is indicative of the fact that freedom from the flesh is progressively chartered yet never considered apprehended except merely in fruition of the manifestations of identification with eternal life. Hence, God’s people’s walk in the loops of time can be in spiritual rest even in spite of the induced encounters of rocky byways. When literal outpourings of depravity render life’s frustrations as counterproductive, such merely testifies that only outwardly we perish, yet “we faint not, but if also our outward man does decay, yet the inward is renewed day by day” (II Corinthians 4:16).
Now it is no accident that our manifested march through Time is encumbered historical-wise with the fiery trials of burdens and inconveniencies on every hand. At this juncture of our growth in spiritual consciousness, we must incorporate the facts that Eternal Intent seizes procedures detailing processes of terminating occurrences solely for testimonial purposes. Over eleven years ago, most of our viewpoints and assessments availed a particular system of thoughts/doctrines derived from sets of principled concepts underlying an incomputable sphere of knowledge that was mostly horizontally focused. This cogitation chiefly dominated our mantle of struggles in defining our set of precepts, beliefs, principles or aims, underlying practices of our irrational conduct in which our entire restraints, resignations and lack of calmness resonated. This skewed comprehension exuded unreliable behavioral responses to confront daily inflicted events cavorting exigencies, dictating unconscious contingences, rendering the majority God’s people’s perceptions as only tentatively safe, at best.
These unreliable illusions characterize the greatest stumbling block to us truly appreciating our salvation. However, even if the entire world fails, our standing is unscathed because the essence of our salvation dwells in the Heavenlies, in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). Thus we are, having been saved (Ephesians 2:8), which exhibits even more the assurance that “saved means safe” in each and every respect! Hence, reliance for uninterruptedly abiding doesn’t rely on one’s abilities to fulfill or implement requirements or obligations to such. Historically, indoctrinated testimonial songs exuded such synergistically capacitated methodologies. Resistance to uncovering the camouflage of disorderly depraved existence yet dominates the conscience onslaught of humankind. As the worst perceived moments in life lurk in their darkest setting, the best of passionate human instincts arising are insufficient to overcome such assails.
Scriptural comprehensions exude vivid confirmations that the victory is not in human hands. Grasping such sobering assessments annuals humankind’s creativeness to ascertaining the higher ground in new directions of which struggles summons us. This effectively focuses on the resilience of this year’s address, “Why we are Secure, Regardless of Physical Life’s Insufficiencies.” In depraved creation, there are no bendable highways that lead us easily and inevitably to quick solutions. Hence, our aim is never so much as to defeat or humiliate the adversary but dependence upon petitioned understandings of God’s Eternal Purpose in earthly manifested circumstances. We must grow to the point of ascertaining that the end we ultimately seek is peace with itself; a society that can live within its conscience. And that will not be evidenced in the present outer man of current manifestations but in our inwardly perceived actualization of Eternality, which will manifest as the Essence of our Existence.
This knowledge not only summons us but also challenges us, in availing this opportunity of standing in this pulpit for the purpose of expounding such significant revelations. And there is deep appreciation for all whom God has caused to guard the Grace Message, as it is a rich and rewarding experience to transcend from earthly envisioned day-to-day demands; as we struggle to be discharged from its allures. Eternal focusing prioritizes the dignity and discusses the issues concerned in everlastingly abiding. And certainly this exhibits deep and meaningful experiences in constructive worship services in considering “Why we are Secure, Regardless of Physical Life’s Insufficiencies.” Here, it is tremendously important to be awakened to the revelation of the spiritual essence of life. In the earthly sphere, the text for this is found in the New Covenant, in Revelation 21:4-5: “and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes and death shall not be any more, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor shall there be any more pain because the first things having passed away; and He who is sitting upon the throne said I make all things new; and He said to me, 'write, because these words are true and steadfast.”
However, more definitively in the Heavenlies sphere in the Grace Covenant, II Corinthians 5:17 states, “so that if anyone in Christ; a new creation; the old things having passed away, lo, all things having been and are new.” Eternal Enlightenment is formed from arresting literally what the pangs of physicality inflict in slumbered miscomprehension of spiritual, unseen things. The chief contemplation of a lack of knowledge incurs what is consistently and even completely ignored. Yes, it is from this drift that ineptness exhibits its mountains of what is amazingly, completely misplaced and misapplied. Too many heirs of God do not know who they are and this reveals that the most striking thing about this dilemma is not merely their lack of understanding but more their lack of appreciation for Christ beyond earthly physical entities. Those oblivious to the tenets revealed in the Mystery Message are thus unaware of their glorious inheritance in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:11-14; Colossians 1:12-13).
As many transducer “artificial tranquility” in “scaling” up mounds of self-wills and/or self-determinations, singly the revelations of Eternal Truth has apprehended actualization at all points, in having chartered all manifestations. Thus, none other could nor will change the course of history. Essentially, such are slumbering ……..in effect, gazing through prisms of physical evolutions and one of the great liabilities of this is that all too many are living amid enormous periods of secular/social changes, while faltering in developing spiritual aptitudes. Hence, their mental responses counter what their situations demand and are ignorant to revelations of realities. Scripturally there can be no contradicting of the fact that an immense evolution is manifesting in the world, i.e., in a physical sense a technological evolution, with the dynastic impact of automation and cybernation. Subsequently there markedly have been evolutions in weaponry, with the emergence of atomic and nuclear weapons of warfare. Concomitantly, there have been and are human evolutions, perpetually with “expulsion” of all theistic reverence, relevance and resonance. In history, and what is manifesting all over the universe, we do live in a period where changes are taking place but there is still the Scripture’s voice crying through panoramas of time, in essence affirming, "behold, I make all things new; former things are passed away!"
Now whatever manifests into history exudes testimonial challenges and opportunities. In converse manifestations to God’s pre-established transactions according to the Grace Covenant, His “displays” are mistakenly couched as physical evolutions “taking place” from stimulations of challenges developed in perspective “world viewings.” Attributions of non-deified emotions and endeavors don’t discharge affectations. Contrariwise, the Scriptures ardently evince that no individual functions autonomously, no nation functions autonomously and anyone who thinks that things can function self-directed and self-sufficiently is oblivious to the revelation of the Grace Mystery Message communicated to Grace Recipients in the Grace Dispensation. The universe in which we live is one in every sense that God’s Will and purpose for this age was decreed in Eternity. This purpose has been and is independent to the extent of its actualization. Obscured mirrored imageries are refracted to a greater extent through man’s so-called “scientific ingenuity.”
In Supreme Sovereignty, God has enabled modern man through his misperceived “scientific genius” to “dwarf distances” and “place time in chains,” as jet planes have compressed into minutes distances that once exhausted weeks and even months. Illusionary, all of this has emboldened human arrogance to the point that the essence of Ontology is construed as abiding in Physicality, as opposed to Spirituality. In addition, the created sphere of Time, which has not always existed, is equated with Eternity, which always was and is. Hence, it is now viewed that it was and is through “scientific and technological genius” that this world is “self created and controlled” in concert with some unknown, maybe even superior force(s) undefined and yet maybe even ethically committed. Numerous of God’s people, because of their “Synergism Theology” have subconsciously bought into humankind’s role as a viable supporter in partnership, as manifestation in Time is mistakenly, inextricably intertwined with actualization in Eternity.
Unfortunately, orthodox Christendom has endorsed and in many ways embraced these fallacies, thus ‘legitimizing” a community of humankind working “hand-in-hand” together with God. And so they aver that somehow and in some way, “we must do this, we must all live and work together in concert with God or we will all perish even though He survives.” This unscriptural inconsistent cogitation avers that “we are tied together in the single garment of destiny, caught in an inescapable network of mutuality and whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly.” Depraved humanly strange reasoning alleges that nothing can be what it ought to be until/unless it is manipulated into what it ought to be (whatever indeterminately that entails). Scriptural Enlightenment affirms that this is not how God’s universe functions; in that the essence of being in purposed functionality is structured in His will in Spirituality rather than its testimonial functionality in physicality. Hence, the challenge is to eradicate all vestiges of humanly inspired notions.
Scripturally, the context of Romans 14:7-9 addresses this illusionary mindset, as Verse 7 states, “For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.” In this sense, no one “of us lives and exists to ourselves, which is true regardless of what ones intentions are. This verse projects that God’s purpose is actually the object of living even though many believe that their lives are immersed in themselves. It is a fact that the reason for our existence is not found in us. This same cogitation is expressed in Galatians 2:21, “no longer I live but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself on behalf of me.” Thus, we in ourselves do not have a sufficient reason for living unto ourselves, for, if any purpose is in us, it is of God and He should be given the sole credit and glory for it (Romans 3:9-18, 23; 7:14, 18; Ephesians 2:8-9). Furthermore, “no one dies to himself.” In view of the future resurrection, when we die we are referred to as having been put to sleep, not as being dead (separated).
The Greek verb which expresses this is always in the passive voice, which means that One other than ourselves puts us to sleep, i.e., namely, God (I Thessalonians 4:13-15). This indicates that God is the one who determines our days in this flesh body (John 21:18-19, 21-23). In the particular case of those who belong to the Lord, He puts “us” to “sleep” for Himself that we may be manifestly with Him, as we were and are now in eternity (Philippians 1:23) expressed in the future resurrection-body form (body of Christ (Philippians 4:20-21). Continuing in this passage, verse 8 states, “For if we may live, we live for the Lord, and if we may die, we die for the Lord. Therefore if we may live or if we may die, we are the Lord’s.” The thrust of this exegesis focuses this verse on the last clause, “we are the Lord’s.” Here, terminological use of possession emphasizes that we belong to and are owned by the Lord; in effect, we all are the Lord’s property (I Corinthians 6:19-20). Logically, it follows that He should be the object of both our living and dying. This was certainly the way Paul viewed his life in that he did not count his own life valuable to himself, as he fearlessly fulfilled the ministry which the Lord gave to him (Acts 20:24).
So, since the Lord owns us, it follows that if we may be living, then we should live unto the Lord. Note the Greek verb zw/men (zo·men) translated “we live” may also be interpreted in the phrase, “for if we may live, we should live unto or for the Lord.” In the light of the context, this verb emphasizes the nature of our relationship with the Lord, namely, that if we may be living, it is a foregone conclusion that we will be living unto or with the Lord. Next, “if we may die, we die unto the Lord.” Again this reinforces the basic premise that we are owned by the Lord. He owns us while we are living and He owns us when we die; briefly summarized in the following words: “If we may live or if we may die, we are the Lord’s.” When Christ was made sin for those He died for, He redeemed and bought them for an eternal possession, which includes ones present physical life plus future existence beyond what is commonly known as physical death (II Corinthians 5:21). Thus, since He has purchased us with His own precious Blood in eternity, then we belong to Him and are in his custody forever and neither life nor death can separate us from Him (Romans 8:38).
Many of God’s people possess the directional orientation of self-ward and inward instead of God-ward and outward, in that their primary focus is upon themselves in lieu of Christ. The latter phrase of Colossians 1:27 stating "Christ in you, the hope of glory," exhibit Christ, as dwelling in God’s elect through the indwelling Holy Spirit. In the Kingdom Gospel, Jesus promised His disciples that the Holy Spirit would be in them; afterwards, He conveyed that He would come and make His abode with them (John 14:17, 23), i.e., in conjunction with the indwelling Holy Spirit. This same inter-related concept of the indwelling Spirit and indwelling Christ is set forth in Romans 8:9-10. In Ephesians 3:16-17, the indwelling Holy Spirit and Christ are associated with the latter dwelling in the elect’s hearts, as internalized through the manifested gift of faith.
The center and the heart of the glorious truth of the Mystery, is the fact that Christ is indeed in every Child of God, as this is the exclusive basis for the hope of glory. The conveyance of Romans 8:30 certifies the ultimate accomplishment of God’s sovereignty, in that He has glorified His elect together with Christ. According to Philippians 3:21, the elect’s bodies will be conformed to the body of His glory, i.e., their glorified bodies will be manifested like His in their eternal existence with Him. The fact that Christ is in them now, they belong to Him and are intimately related to Him right now, assure them of manifested glorification in Him. Their position of being in Christ is permanent, as they are sealed in this position by the Holy Spirit unto the manifestation of their redemption, when their physical bodies will be exchanged in likeness to His Glorious Body (Ephesians 1:13-14; II Corinthians 1:22). Hence, those in Christ are assured, not through mystical deeds or thoughts but as God has sovereignly placed His elect in Christ, He will also sovereignly manifest in them His glory, which is the hope of the Gospel.
Unfortunately, too many of God’s people’s horizontal relations in earthly surroundings are more important to them than their vertical inheritances in the Heavenlies in Christ. In this sense, traditions in religiosities shape what is more manifestly esteemed in the eyes of the Church Cultures. Incredibly, thorough assessments of their average knowledge base contorts (twists, wraps) their scriptural comprehensions of Ephesians 1:3 to the point that the majority recipients of eternal grace blessings actually do not grade their relationship with God as the most important personal connection in their lives. Though many dutifully foist proclamation of Christ as first, their daily functions reveal that even their religious notions are influenced more through “eye-focusing” on the physical world. Hence, most things believed in testimony of what they actually rely on are highlighted on what is materially seen, as opposed to what is solely “seen through their eyes of faith,” i.e., what is unseen in the physical sphere (II Corinthians 4:18).
Hence, the vast majority prioritize their earthly affairs over their Heavenlies affairs when challenged to espouse their most important relationships to them. Here, for clarity sake, the underlined area under discussion is PRIORITY, in that there is great importance assuaged in temporary functioning in time but all in deference to the total design of eternal functioning. Even when this distinction is extended, the total essence of life is obscurely viewed in prioritizing temporary time perceptions, dominating earthly entities. Hence, the order of what is most important or urgent gravitate to the family nucleus, i.e., spouses, children, parents, etc., which logically translate the most essential relationship if this present life was sustainably prolonged in some manner. However, the imposition of temporariness, as opposed to the hope of eternality solidly reverses the relevancy of this regulation to genuinely establish the fact that one’s relationship with God, Jesus Christ, is the most important in life’s sole endurance echelon.
Surprisingly, only a small number of God’s people exhibit enlightened comprehensions for prioritizing eternal relationships that are specifically beyond the scope of temporary personal connections. Overwhelmingly, the aged are most likely to position God on top of their relationship list, as loved ones in their group category obviously are transitioning out of the Time Capsule. Nonetheless, in the conspicuously scripturally inexperienced, God is not the most significant relationship. Comprehending distinctions of temporality from eternality infuses the scripturally intellectual standpoint that God is the exclusive reality of what existence necessitates. Yet, many of God’s people do not reliably share intimacy with God beyond petitioning Him in earthly exigencies. Providentially greater, deeper and renewed intelligence of connecting eternal determinations are divulged in spiritual opportunities to know and be known by the living God beyond earthly entropies.
Emotionally, materiality distorts the essence of joy when uninformed ones describe and link their bond with God in the physical arena as their view of identifying with Him as their most important and personal relationship. This simply exposes that their view of Him is strictly in the arena of networking in this present life. Fashionable replies from the lion’s share of ministries exhibit that the most significant affiliations in their lives mostly highlight God’s people at their workplace, in associations of gathering together in social groups and interactions in communities. These are absolutely acceptable forums in their proper settings but in no wise should be the prioritized focus of God’s people lives. Church congregations as the most significant groupings say that God represents their most important connections, yet this merely reflects the interpersonal comfort that develops in them linking God’s “partnership” to their earthly expeditions. This indicates their ultimate reason for belonging to a “Christian Church.”
II Corinthians 4:18 states, “we are not looking at the things being seen but at the things not being seen; for the things being seen are temporal but the things not being seen are eternal.” Here, the Greek present particle mh. skopou,ntwn (mee skop∙oon∙don) rendered “not looking” designates not prioritizing or not constantly dwelling ultimately in thought about things, which are physically being seen. Note that the present tense and passive voice of the Greek participle ta. blepo,mena (tah vlehpo∙mehn∙ah) rendered “the things being seen” communicates this as the physical arena prioritized by unenlightened mindsets. In distinguishing the difference between what should be prioritized dwelling, as opposed to what should not, the strong Greek adversative conjunction avlla. (ahl∙lah) rendered “but” is interjected. Advisedly, this conveys that God’s people should prioritize ta. mh. blepo,mena (tah mee vlehpo∙mehn∙ah) rendered “the things not being seen.” Hence, the distinctive spheres exhibited are the spiritually invisible and the physically visible. Colossians 3:1-2 categorizes them as the above sphere and the earthly sphere, respectively.
All things were and are actualized in the eternal Heavenlies unseen and merely manifested or revealed in the earthly temporary seen sphere, as expressed in time durations. Hence, God’s people’s mindset should be prioritized in focus on the above things over things of this earth (Colossians 3:2). The scriptural reasoning for not mentally prioritizing our occupation with the things that are being seen is because they are pro,skaira (prosk∙ehr∙ah) rendered “temporary” and transitory, which translates things being seen in a state of rapid or drawn out dissolution. This authenticates prioritizing of occupation with the things not being seen because they are aivw,nia (eh∙o∙nee∙ah) rendered “eternal” and unending, which denotes the things not being seen are everlastingly abiding in endurance. The ultimate end of God’s eternal purpose should dominate the essence not only in this life but the life that is to come!
Unfortunately, earthly relevancies define the most significant network charactering the vast majority of our contemplations. Comparably speaking, the physical commodities prioritize and dominate most human affections. In stark contrast, the significant network of eternality’s discoveries depicts what is enduringly conservable beyond temporariness. Malfunctions and disappointments in mortality convincingly underscore the inferior exertions of artificialities’ implements. Respectively, conservations and liberations are definitively distorted in every attempt to simulate abiding joy and peace. In this sense, scriptural reality’s reliability retorts (angrily replies against) every assertion of positioning earth venues as prioritized focal points. This is substantiated in sampling directives and information gleaned from having been fully instructed in the ethics of the superior declarations of eternally abiding above temporary depraved relations. Ersatz Entities amply reveal the futility generated in artificial and inferior substitutes or imitations of physicality in lieu of spirituality.
Irrefutably, “Paradise Relations” encompass neither meaningless formalities nor dictations of artificiality but rather inherent proprieties of transcendent immortality. These facilitating comprehensions rescind the uninformed super graphic directors who foist “paradisiacal” societies in idealize accomplishments while “they sojourn to light and life.” The criteria of harmony in the universe translate detectable orders availing in reliable or sustainable forum unrealistically attesting “paradise.” This knowledge instills unshakably security in essentiality of abiding endurance rather than philosophical indulgences into “spiritual,” yet essentially physical heights of spontaneous earthly adorations of material techniques for approaching what is exclusively realizable in divineness. The acquirements of earthly expectations don’t translate to arrival on “Paradise,” in that the determinations of such are imparted merely in mirroring testimony in time. Hence, no manifestations can be applied other than what they attain from their source of light in actuality.
Unrealistic spontaneous convergences on an earthly “Paradise” falter in every sense of humanly depraved characteristics. Perfection invigorates directionally in conveyances of eternality exclusively. This annuls in every sense all “depraved human operations within its gates" through scriptural instructions and guidance, as such imbues perfect ease and enablement to avoid confusions and uncertainties, which are otherwise inevitable. Only by such understandings could endless bewilderment be circumvented; in focusing away from what can’t possibly appear (manifest) on an earth. These directions really serve as glorified instructions and guides, as they are exclusively discerned with the essence of immortality’s endless assortment of unfamiliarity with temporary urgencies. Notwithstanding humanly induced preparations thereof, as well as inspired journeys thereto, “Genuine Paradise” is inexpressibly isolate and unexpectedly illusive to finality’s residing stratum.
None of earth’s so-called “advancing evolutions” enhance accompanying spiritualization in calculating the influences received by such ridiculous postulations. As mortals digress into human mind control and “secularly-spiritual” perceptions, multiplicities of “agencies” become even more co-ordinate in physical functioning; increasingly blended overly with “the mystics of Time rather than the mantle of Eternity.” Divinity depicts pluralistically in manifestation in all daily human experiences yet Deity is singular in source of God’s uniqueness. Neither is spirituality reserved in plurality of human familiarity, in spite of conventional misperceptions of its influenced origination through such functions. Indeed they are sensibly purposed, being sourced in the spirit of God unto manifestation in creation of the grand universe. Creation groans in appreciation of and receptivity for unification of security and stability, as such will surely manifest supreme perfection in spirituality! I Corinthians 15:53 states, “for it is necessary for this perishable to (having) put on (enrobe) imperishableness and for this mortal to (having) put on (enrobe) immortality.” This verse’s Greek aorist infinitive evndu,sasqa (ehn∙thees∙ahs∙theh) rendered “to (having) put on (enrobe)” denotes predetermination in God’s actualization of all in His Eternal Decree. The verb dei (thee) rendered “necessary” confers the binding termination of all corrupted fatalisms being replaced by incorruptible spiritualism, as predesigned in existence in the Heavenlies.
From the heights of eternal glory descends the actualized culmination of all things that are delineated in manifested series of steps exclusively for testimonial purposes. Eternality is where all things exist in residency rather than collaboratively in partnership of faith in the time sphere. Lovingly, God’s predeterminations embraced moral originations embarked upon in sureness and certainty of retraceable condescension that are never discontinued in altered evolutions. Eternal Security is exalted to the exceeding heights of blissfulness from which originality sprung forth in divineness’ mission of God’s purpose in grace. Spiritual forces unerringly achieve originality, having out of eternality exhibited manifestation for testimony’s sake; thus, they are in essence because of their reliable residency thereto. All time and space merely espouse the leadings and teachings of physicality’s indwelling adjustments from beginning to end. The lone source radiating continual encouragement yields power and achievement "according to God’s manifestations in “renewing of the spirit." Spiritual life, unlike physical, is inconsumable, thus, irrelative to material exhaustions. The entire ascendancy of time’s temporary experiences is eternally purposed, therefore, it is powerless to transform characterizations to control mortality. These comprehensions convey awareness that prioritization of eternal relations exudes realization of temporal relations in time.
In realistic viewing of the Time Capsule, the most baffling of all time travel paradoxes exhibit in humankind’s expectancies of ultimate fulfillments and realized goals against the backdrop of these unattainable conquests in temporary physical arenas. A secularly historical analysis of technology contrives that its changes are exponential in its "intuitive linear" viewing. Substantively dubbed misperceived “experiences in progress” through the centuries are essentially humanly rated progressions. Yet, this merely exhibits limited characteristics in ineffectiveness of such. Conversely, the actualized scale of achievements resides in eternal non-material spectrum, exuding unchallengeable and uninterruptible conquests beyond time measures or exponential growth ratings. What is defined and rated in the Time Capsule and physicality is exhibited in decades, centuries or millennia; wherein machine intelligence is devised to surpass even human intelligence. Singularity in secularity leads to technological Artificial Intelligence, the changes exhibit so rapid and profound that they represent ruptures in unsettled fabrics of human history.
Such connotations exude faceted mergers of biological and non-biological intelligence, mortal-based and culturally-high leveled in imagined astuteness; cascading outward in the universe void of any scriptural light. Such developments merely manifest fabricated time machinated entities, decidedly skewed to magnify human sensorial perceptions. In these views, predicaments exist non-sourced, as browsed through academic journals in universal solutions seeking the physicality rather than spirituality sphere. These mode sectors simply denote and summons the illusions of secular splendid and invite “clever theorems” outlined in details. However disputable such are in inconsistencies, they are contently accepted because of humans’ resonance in physicality. What is indisputable is that there is no scriptural resonation for tiding up secular arguments, even through such are popularly published and resoundingly acclaimed by the majority. Sadly, it is deemed as both rational and reasonable by orthodox Christendom that such professing provides accommodation in “time reality” even though such inevitably falters in inconsistencies when attempting to authenticate actuality.
Moreover, there are no contradictions involved in a self-consistent causal loop. Strictly speaking, in the temporal loops of time, such are not viewed by humanity as paradoxical but simply a very weird state of affairs. But in Eternity’s unrestrained, unbounded, unrestricted sphere, nothing is paradoxical. Relatively, the problem concerns the origin of secular information: where and when exactly did things come from? The professing of obscurities merely structure journalistic datum (human logic assumed as fact and relied on as the basis for theories, conclusions or inferences). Earthly Mirrored or physical comprehensions are entirely copied professing information about things “out of thin air." II Corinthians 3:18 states, “For now we see through a mirror obscurely and then face to face; now I know partially and then I shall perfectly know even as I have been perfectly known.” Contextual antecedents’ verses establish concerning God’s people that: they know partially (verse 9), when perfect knowledge comes, it replaces “that which is partial” (verse 10) and immature (child) thinking and reasoning shall eventually succumb to mature (man (adult) thinking and reasoning (verse 11).
Verse 12’s conveyance is that God’s people’s knowledge is progressively seen through a evso,ptrou (ehs∙op∙troo) rendered “mirror,” denoting what is reflected in their minds through “the seen” loops in the Time Capsule, as compare to what has been caused to develop gradually in discernment according to the unseen in God’s Eternal Decree. The current view exhibits a;rti (ahr∙tee) rendered “now,” just now, i.e., presently aivni,gmat (eh∙neeg∙maht∙ee) rendered “obscurely.” Undoubtedly, this transmits that as best, what is comprehended reflects a dim and ambiguous image of what is actualized (the real thing). This effectively describes limited comprehension of Grace Covenant revealed truths, i.e., actualized facts in God’s Eternal Decree. The Greek phraseology to,te de. (tot∙eh theh) rendered “and then” references the manifestations in the Eternal Sphere; verified by the jargon pro,swpon pro.j pro,swpon (pros∙o∙pon pros pros∙o∙pon) rendered “face to face.” Thus, in comparison to misconstruing a face factually, the dimly obscured mirror in imageries is refracted in the entropies (measures of disorder existing in loops of Time Capsules); liken at best as a;rti ginw,skw evk me,rouj (ahr∙tee yeen∙os∙ko ehk mehr∙oos) literally rendered “now, I know out from part” or partially.
Contrariwise, manifestation in perfection via “face to face” denotes that all dimness and obscurity will cease and be replaced by clear comprehension of the fullness of God’s eternal purpose (Ephesians 1:18-19). Culmination of non-obscure viewing with respect to future manifestation is communicated by the Greek phrase to,te de. evpignw,somai kaqw.j kai. evpegnw,sqhn (tot∙eh theh ehp∙eeg∙nos∙o∙meh kahth∙os keh ehp∙ehg∙nos∙theen) rendered “and then I shall perfectly know even as I have been perfectly known.” Hence, the two Greek adverbs to,te (tot∙eh) rendered “then” are unequivocally identifying the sphere of Eternality, wherein exclusively resounds what is perfect is present. Thus what is perfect resides in authenticity in full truth and revelation in exactness of all having been actualized in the Heavenlies in Christ (Ephesians 1:3); wherein all things, including the elect’s salvation was determined (Ephesians 1:4-18).
The Grace Covenant affirms that professing in physicality is both scripturally non-factual and spiritually unpractical. Dependable encounters exert a number of objections in physical grounds: for example, infinitely long straight strings solely codify existence, whereas finite string loops threaten collapse as they meander in time mechanisms. This establishes that time travel is a generic feature of the human theories of relativism, resounding in just a quirk of presently, secularly seen scenarios. The uninformed have become so enthusiastic about time mechanisms that they even go so far as to suggest the entire cosmos may be one, through pointing out that the universe would then be able to create itself. Postulations averring possibilities that what is time traveled could in principle influence its destination or alter its origination defy even human logic, assigned in the universe. Undefined loops in time, bringing themselves into existence without the need for some mysterious origin from nothing, postulate that the universe in some sense always has existed, even though time itself remains “finite in the past!"
All secular essays falter in referencing temporary time loops, lacking understanding in what such avers. Even those writings that elaborate in great details fail when attention is seriously focused on the stunning incoherencies in their declarations. Incredibly, further explanations are necessitated however, projecting synonymously forward and “back” to the future. These persuasions are extensively misunderstood aside from their consistency accountability forbearances. Such expectancies of the future bode practically like their present, which are in practice like their past: undefined, uninsured, unreliable and thus unpredictable. Although such are construed at their very early stage, such exponential trend is so flat such actually exhibit no inclination at all, hence, their lack of expectations are precisely fulfilled. In defiance of such “common wisdom,” expectations’ continuous technological “progress” challenges manifested repercussions that flow. Thus, the future is always more surprising than most observations realize, as few have truly internalized the implications of the fact that though the rate of change is accelerating, such will never apprehend existence in the Physicality Sphere.
Both the Intuitive Linear and Historical Exponential views falter miserably, in long range forecasts of feasibilities. Thus, each time period dramatically misconstrue the origination and actualized locale of what is sourced in manifestation fields of Time Loops. In Time mode functionalities, future expectancies are illusive when based on the so-called "intuitive linear views” of progress and further obscures "historical exponential views." To express this in another way, Time Loops do not imbue actualization, which is exclusively experienced progressively in the Eternal Heavenliest in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). Rather, witnessing in refractive measured exhibition of “progress” exclusively manifest movement in the “time ratings” of advancement. These manifest resulting disparities in direct outlook frequently displaying varieties of contexts. Such discussions of jeremiad (long recitation of mournful complaints) issues cloud internalization of “joy,” which is elevated out of sync dispensational in WIRED biblical cover stories that are conveyed to instill confidence in future earthly entropies.
Secular views are most frequently paired in varieties of venues, which exhibit at worse scant pessimism and at best limited optimism; entirely detractively faint. Time Loops expectancies are predictably apprehensive when they are critiqued in their temporary positions; as such are indeed issued with prescriptions of inevitable relinquishments. Nonetheless, secular philosophies usually are deployed defending humanity’s perceptions of JOY, as such are keyed on feasibilities of human causalities. The key issue of divinely sourced singular effectuations is ill-fatedly dispelled as such are void of trustworthiness when exclaiming “self-replicating humanly engineered entities." Controversially, what must be pointed out is their unreasonable estimates of advancement required to achieve particular milestones in the Time Loops ratings of progress. Because of the misperceptions of abiding existence in physicality, its “uncertainties” are acceptably factored in the ratings of so-called “Progressive Immortality.”
Interestingly, this subjectively exudes series of thoughts documenting human ambitions to secularly redefine immortality, happiness and the meaning of life. This may resonate acceptably in physiological and even orthodoxy Christendom circles, in their severally so-valued opinions and input, yet none seem to endorse the Grace Covenant obligation scripturally in their responses and comments. For sure, such are hardily welcomed in humanity’s consensus regardless of whether they adequately address the issues or simply allude what is familiarly concluded by the masses. Yet, in spite of all their inconsistencies and partialities, not many seem too obligated to rescue factuality from this philosophical quandary. Here, it must be meticulously realized that Eternal Abiding Extension trumps temporary Time Loops, as its sphere transcends human ambitions in physicality but actually apprehend achievable immortality, pleasure, happiness and true meaning of life. In such heightened or elevated surveillance, actualized existence is less about energetic pursuance in Time Loops, in deference to the most important focus of clearly defining what should be the primary and current goal even in this life (I Timothy 4:8).
Hoveringly, manifestations in the Time Loops exude conclusive terminations and the implosions developing counter to secular desires, exclusively endeavored for arbitrarily living in lengthy time spans, which do not arrest immortality. Despite vivid Grace covenantal scriptural explications, too many have been more or less unwilling to accept the fact that mortality is the most finalized particular condition realized in the Time Loops. Also, most of God’s people are simply so Eternally Uninformed, they are not capable of coping with physical temporariness. It’s not necessarily the fear of death that defines this issue, though too many is indeed afraid. Conversely, this is not really be the argument, which is simply that one’s continued consciousness in more or less any physical form seems infinitely preferable to realized/actualized, existence in the Eternal Spiritual Sphere. This relevancy denotes that absolute immortality is not possible in any point of the universe. Even as its expansions of particles disassociate or condense into the single so- called “pre-big-bang point and/or collapse in the process; inevitably, mortality is soberly accurate. Hence, neither luck nor fate defines realizations of whether one travels in a rift of space-time or cruises inhibited through its terrain. Nevertheless what is scripturally realizable is that longevity is not comprised in chance factoring the types of happenings or occurrences, as it is increasingly revealed that they are not manifested in or from such.
Time Loops issues are not what determine what transpires in manifestation, whatsoever. The actualized source of existence in every respect of abiding; exudes residency in its reliable, unrestrained, unmovable, immutable and unchallengeable affirmation. Life in the appropriate sense of this view transcends all concerns of possibilities, prolongations and projections in the inherencies of actualities, purposes, preservations and resignations. In the spiritual stratum of the Eternal NOW, all these currently abide in lieu of some variety of an afterlife, whereof the questions of potentials are irrelevant, as ALL is culminated in ALL! Hence, such are the Heavenlies in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). Sole existence in this sphere nullifies insufficiencies of daunting concerns, weighting until the end of the universe. The pursuance of achievements in the effectuation of immortality are undeniably and illogically examined in Time but such are never doubted in Eternality, whereof everything exhibit sufficiently completed levels in having been enabled ALL in ALL (I Corinthians 15:28).
Sadly, some of the most poignantly recognized proponents of secularity foist the flawed “concepts of continuation” by embracing principals of the so-called “Law of Accelerating Returns.” These ideas and writings of Raymond Kurzweil state that the mode of human life gives the appearance of approaching some essential singularity in history beyond, which human affairs as now known could continue. Hence, this technology is increasing at an exponential rate and this rate of growth is itself growing exponentially. It avers that even though scientism is nowhere near having the sufficient technology to comprehend perpetual progressions, such might well materialize in maybe 30 or 40 years. Such asserts that the actual mechanisms for artificial immortality would need to involve human consciousness, which can do without useful body functions until artificial replacement of such can be made. In this fanaticized setting, physical form is definitely of a secondary concern, whereas consciousness in itself is transformed into an artificial form with nano (extremely small) mechanized brain scans measuring electric fields or wave expulsions.
Unbelievably, such is proposed as possible …. that the state of every cell in the brain could be recorded at any given instant and once mental snapshots are produced, it wouldn’t seem like too difficult a task to reproduce these images in a computer. Before advancing further such “surrealism,” it must be noted that there is an extreme scriptural problem in supposedly duplicating images of physicality because physicality is no more other than images itself. Actualization abides exclusively in God’s “saying” (His Decree, according to Hebrews 1:3) including not only what is manifested in materiality but also every idea and thought, thus rendering everything that comprises the critical ingredient of Ontology. In this way, the “originality of existence,” except in His province, is void as images lacking substance, which are merely images of naught. Simply copying nil into a computer meagerly duplicates zero. All of existence is independent and thus not affirmed by what might be reflected in the manifestations of its Eternal Intentions.
The essence of all creation embargoes “purpose” as its principled constituent for design and intentionality. Everything in the Time Capsule eventually grows old and dies, thus even computers’ temporariness are unavoidable. Conveyances of maintenance in every sense of self transition would exude gradual swapping of functions one by one until all are completely artificial. The most inappropriate venue and state of affairs to view the nature of such an imaginary “existence” is in Temporary Loops of Time. First, such would effectively require “unbounded time,” which in itself is not definable in this media. If ones only desire was to do nothing then that wouldn’t be a problem, in that emptiness doesn’t extract requirements of sequencing memories and plans. Concreteness, except as phrases in God’s testimonies of actuality is an unnecessary entity. Memory and analysis evince the function of undertakings rather than actual inspirations in time. This may seem terribly non-motivating but without decreed purpose there is no necessity for sequencing ideas in Time Loops.
Feelings of plausible happiness and satisfaction in manifestation exhibit that their contents do not flourish in physicality. Hebrews 1:10-12 state, “and You, Lord, at the beginning, the earth did found and a work of your hands are the heavens; these shall perish but You remain, and all (others), as a garment shall become old, and as a cloak You shall roll them up, also they shall be changed but You are the same and Your years shall not cease.” These verses express venue prior to the creation of anything, which is what the Greek noun avrca,j (ahr∙khahs) rendered “beginning” actually references. It was at this point that the heavens and the earth (the universe) are the works (creation) of the Lord’s “hand,” i.e., His Decree. This truth is affirmed in I Corinthians 8:6; Colossians 1:16-17; John 1:3, 10) as to what creation entails, as clarified in Hebrews 1:3. Ones comprehensions of these verses exact teaching corroborations in Psalms 102:25-26, in the further conveyance that all that was manifestly created, will ultimately be caused to become old, obsolete, antiquated and dissipated, as affirmed by the indicative mood (factuality), future tense and passive voice of the verb avpolou/ntai (ahp∙ol∙oon∙deh) rendered “shall perish.”
This certifies that the materialized universe has been determinatively assigned ultimate destruction but the key connoting phrase su. de. diame,neij (see theh thee∙ahm∙ehn∙ees) is rendered “but You (God) remain.” This mitigates every negative impact on God’s beloved people and confirms the temporariness of all that reside in the Time Loops, as opposed to what abides unceasingly beyond such in eternity! The Grace Gospel Church Ministry believes and teaches that it is not possible to neither increase nor extend Time Loops beyond what their vestiges dictate nor anything possessed in their capacity, neither mentally nor physically. Even if the brain were to be reproduced in a computer in complete detail, such would meagerly represent imaging, complexly void of substance and essence. Inputs and outputs may be controlled and experiments performed but only in the limited mode in computational power. Secular knowledge in the workings of the human brain conveys temporariness of what is simply what seems possible to augment the brain functions, adding pathways to improve speed, creating more efficient input mechanisms (such as scanning and markings on a computer screen, reading them and then interpreting their meanings). Such is limited in imagining its “god-like” possibilities but the point is that it is not possible for humanity to reach this level of technology before it dies of causes other than time traveling or looping. Society, when left to its imagination merely deludes rather than develops such technology and instead is simply systematized in the sphere of its depraved individualism.
Time Loops tasks require vast acquisitions and expenditures of resources abiding beyond impossibilities imposed by their successions in temporariness. Their arrays of fulfillment necessitate their purposeful accounting, as such are deemed in the expressions of what constitute their Eternal Intentions. This resource of intentionality automatically eliminates every order in any design of physicality to exist forever and further magnifies humanity’s pathetic arrogance, as it endeavors to seize control of what has been eternally arranged by God. It is disproportionate folly for humankind to even deliberate “sufficient faith” in its own intelligence and ability. For some to think that this is at least possible, obviously requires what is exclusively and inherently competence in enablement. Scripture-wise, the single most regulatory source of authority for such authentications imbues the originations of excellent and/or tenable ideas, which are solely purposed in divine rationale.
So-called human resources do not encompass valid coherency for achieving evidences of ontologisms. The critical functions for decisive attendance to the impediments of perpetual existence could never expel the possibility of maximizing enough time for delivery of such. Recommence (to begin something again or start something again) for achieving these possibilities invoke the substantiation to mitigate all opposition to initiation of such. Even as humankind works as diligently as possible, every exertion to embargo, replicate and duplicate what solely Divinity is capacitated to produce hampers and even dispels all its operational intentions in this respect. Such humanly imaginary resources basically imbue elements of impaled illusions. No matter how much a given incision of physicality meanders into actuality, every such intrusion is thwarted. No plausible impositions into eternally assigned courses could ever achieve their rather ambitious goals, even though there is exhibited human readiness and willingness to accept such flawed postulations.
The misperceived potential utility of an unbounded amount of time seems to completely dwarf the utility of time’s limited boundaries in any purposeful testimony. In this misguided scenario, everything would eventually if not immediately manifest relatively productive in physicality’s methodology of things produced to lodge pleasures of humans’ preferences. Spiritual evaluations of these endeavors are quantitative more or less to zero in present life’s short side trip regarding the nature of pleasure. What is pleasure? One may posit that there are three different kinds of pleasure. The first are past derived pleasures exuded from remembering that which were experienced in the past. What are firmly evidenced in past experiences are the realities of transiency. Secondly, in that of the present, the type of pleasure one might experience is in random order. Unreliably, these types of pleasures are transience because the moment they pass, they are gone. The third type is that of the future or anticipatory pleasures derived from thinking or imagining things expected or hoped for but yet to come, which are also mitigated by the factor of transiency.
Human gratifications considered obtainable though physicality’s endearments unreliably falter in insufficiencies of abiding perpetuity. No goals are achievable when constituents of contentment are unsustainable because none of the wares of physicality are adept at fabricating the maintenance of prolonging that which is echoingly functional. Exhibitions of the anticipatory pleasures in eternality abide beyond earthly scopes and domains in substantially more than the confines and constraints of time loops. Characteristically noting, nothing construed in this sense are valid enough to prolong the tiny bits of so-called “pleasures” pitched in every now and then and merely geared to reflect probabilities, not possibilities! All “present pleasures” are automatically sacrificed in time loops and are completely worthless when continuity is considered the vital factor in achieving this goal. Hence, storing and remembering cannot nor will not suffice the principals of “immortally brain-waving” that will unquestionably fade with every conception in time limitations.
Romans 11:36 states “because out of Him and through Him and unto Him are all things, to Him be glory forever, amen.” The statements in this verse unmistakably references God, the sole processor, enabler and sustainer of all through His unfathomable wisdom and knowledge. Here, the Greek conjunction o[ti (o∙tee) rendered “because” expresses evx auvtou (ehx ahf∙too), is rendered “out of Him,” in the ablative case (the relations of separation and source as such conveys cause or instrument), in denoting God as the source and origin of all that exists. The phrase diV auvtou (thee ahf∙too) rendered “through Him” declares all having been brought into existence, i.e., creation of all things. The Greek phrase eivj auvto.n (ees ahf∙ton) rendered “unto Him” denotes that the end or object (purpose) of all is God Himself (Colossians 1:16-17). Hence, all of creation had, as well as have as its purpose, eternal glorification of God’s essence as the exclusive means and methodology of: origination, maintenance, stabilization, suitability, reliability and perpetuity. In this sense, everything that abides, resides in the spiritual essence of His Eternal Decree. Hence, nothing outside of Him exhibit past, present or future, any substance in any form, forum or manner!
How humans often indulge themselves in attempting to garner, replicate and stockpile envoys of happiness simply transmit physicality’s transient pleasures? Pertinent quarries are: is physicality really worth it? How can it be if such never last and if the memories are simply reused but not actually experienced? And if these “present pleasures” are all abidingly worthless, such might as well reside in the present working towards having a future of unending present pleasures in the dependableness of eternity. These recognitions afford no justification whatsoever for allowing deviances from the exclusive path towards immortality …..Eternality!
While physicality’s modes and spheres are intrinsically viewed as viable holding vessels of blissfulness by humans, these reflections are only refracted (altered courses passing from another medium) as flawed illusions connoting scripturally severe problems: First, what manifests in time loops depicts testimonial mental wrecks akin to the habitation of depraved nature. Because no goals of sufficiency are viably operand in earthly terrains; there are no inherent reasons affirmed in such manifestly constituting reliable itinerants. Second, non-enduring physical accommodations imbue restrained issues imagining the illusions of human control allocating creaturely contrived pleasures. Even though it may seem theoretically possible, it is tremendously non-durable. The development of what is indicative factually, must embargo much more than what is merely analytically intrusive. Everything restrictively confined in physicality’s time interpretations are primarily ideas depending upon eternality’s purposing.
Third, arbitrarily passable amounts of time loops’ “enactments” insufficiently portend the humanly contrived pleasures. Hence, present depictions aren’t any more meaningful or any different than any preceding arrangements in the former, as they are all completely transient. In this intelligence, some sober quarries are: are there then, really any abiding benefits in mortality? Are there any reliable benefits to living into the very next moment? Here some will submit: if there are no lasting benefits, why then should one still prefer to continue to live? This exposes contradictions in conclusions that follow from reasoning in the more condensed sphere of time’s testimonial envelope. In the eternal intention’s total scope of purpose, it doesn’t fit to prioritize so-called current pleasures when they are valueless in comparison to all fulfilled achievements in eternality. It is intrinsically unfounded to assess the severity of problems encountered daily as though they exude permanency. When such are blindly viewed within their confines, they impend far greater than durations and manipulative impressions.
What may craft a complete mental wreck in reaching for goals in the time loops simply assumes that things happen solely due to human input. In this indicial, things are too unstable to forecast when such embraces subtle issues in convergences of life’s unions and junctions. Exigencies or the situational demands exerting urgencies and pressures can never sufficiently apprehend such allocations of all that seem theoretically possible. Such would be terrifically administrable if facilitated developmentally in some control mechanism but what is manifested is unmanageable in arbitrarily amounts of durations resonating solely to whatever occurrences transpire. Hence, what is meaningful diverts to what is achievable but un-definable in completely transient terrains. The operands of unachievable immortality cannot reliably pursue or contest goals in this sense but must forgo all in deference to ordinances of what just “seems very likely that might happen;” whether that subtracts from or doubles the total contention.
Goals such as saving the human race courts replacing what is currently perceived with artificial intelligence, supposedly harnessing moments for what will again get postponed in later time loops. In this scenario, perhaps they will be postponed indefinitely. And if it is a moment before the end of the universe, maybe moments conjoined in litanies might stretch to an eternity of striving. These postulations induce a battery of questions: Can any amount of composition structure any amount of striving? Can assessments in finite mediums realistically abide in structuring at the outset? How can any mode of artificiality exhibit as anything more than just an annex of the unpalatable conclusion of insufficient durations? What actually is the significant pursuance of life? Does pursuit of temporary durations necessarily quantify happiness (pleasure)? How is pleasure maximized in the pursuit of happiness?
II Corinthians 10:13 states, “but we will not boast regarding immeasurable things but according to the measure of the sphere, which the God of measure assigned to us, to reach even unto you.” This specifically parallels humankind’s continuous quest in measuring themselves by themselves, as it contrasts this cogitation with the spiritually informed mindset that (we) “will not boast regarding immeasurable things.” Here the phrase ta. a;metra (tah ahm∙eht∙rah) rendered “immeasurable things” may also be rendered things not measurable or beyond measure. Actuality imbues what cannot be assessed nor are assessable in the sense of residing based on an absolute standard in physicality. In stark contrast, all things exclusively abide in and through the Word and Will of God. Thus, everything is limited “to the measure of the sphere, which the God of measure assigned.” The phrase to. me,tron tou/ kano,noj (to meht∙ron too kahn∙on∙os) rendered “the measure of the sphere,” may also be rendered as the limits of the sphere, the measure of the province and the measure of the line. In the universe, God measured to humankind a restrictive sphere or area, as referenced by the phrase o` qeo.j me,trou (o Thehos mehtroo), “the God of measure,” WHO set the extent to evfike,sqai (ehph∙eek∙ehs∙theh) rendered “reach” and arrive at.
The exclusive functioning of all actualized existence resides in God’s Divine Decree, as in essence, substance, enablement and sustenance. Manifestations of what materially abide encompass His purpose in testimony and revelation according to His Will. This renders as useless and worthless all human designs and/or itinerants other than the scope of Eternal Intentions. Nothing is capacitated in reason nor function that does not align in what has been allocated in respect of these guidelines of measurements of what can be and will be possibly enabled to manifest. The Word of God solely defines what those limitations of manifestations entail and in no sense relies on goals and ideas prompted for elevating humankind’s initiatives (II Corinthians 10:18).
Humankind’s inclinations for achieving ultimate joy embarks upon euphoric illusions of harnessing the so-called perennial permanency; persisting in enduring or continuing effectuations in the time loops. In this view, things artificially endure or persist without interruption through their repetitive reflections, as though representative imaging imbue constant perpetuity’s quest for certainty. Though things may be repeated or synthetically renewed, such “recurrences” are never sufficiently harmonious in and of themselves. Hence, neither is there nor could ever be anything reliably conceived of immortality as achievable even if such could continue as unnaturally intact. As humankind undertakes such exertions of things, which it is attractively fascinated and focused in, efforts in this respect, never extract sufficient amounts of individual creations faithfully discharging pursuance eventually accommodated in repetitiveness of looping temporariness. There is no way to achieve what will persist solely in the eternal sphere of blissful endurance.
It would be most spiritually profitable to discern from the Grace Scriptures what is really necessary for genuine happiness, which can never dwell in carnal (physical) modules. Regardless of whatever humanly deceptive expectations engender in recommendations distorted to simulate immortality, things continue to convincingly convict the essence of suitable peace solely in eternality. Other manipulative illusions that denote what seem to be more naturally ambitious, embellishes allured examples of humanly contriving for the exploitation of power and glory through control mechanisms. Markedly, humans are thrilled simply by delusions of their upward movement on the “ladder” to paraphrase or at least parlay (make good use of an asset or advantage to obtain success) derivatives that foist them credits of “achievements” in defining if not outright determining their own destinies. This course enthusiastically pursues a self-acclaimed knowledge base rather than their acknowledgement of humanly inferior conceptions about how and why things activate and abidingly function.
Humankind’s preferences toward these arrogances concede how such search tediously in attempts to refute or at least mask the apparent facts of human inferiority and frailty. Every instance of time loops’ entropies unmistakably documents their instability as well as unreliability in being consigned control, as compared to such totally depending upon deified power to both ordinate and manage occurrences in these terrains. Factually, no humans really know how or why things function but merely their operands of patterns and potentials manipulatively misconceived scientism’s assumptions. Things mistakenly assigned in such misconceptions exude the “absurdity points” for living arbitrarily long amounts of time. Occurrences in these modes engender simply what might “accidentally convert.” Hence, probability exhibits as the “prevailing wisdom of judgment” which is the apologetic census proposed when earth entities defy such “conventional wisdom” as exploitive arguments defining human responsiveness as the thread woven in the time loops forum.
Humankind’s infatuation streams in endeavors to codify “creature sufficiency” yet these modes merely confirm that such is insufficient to depict anything more than its currently dead state. As long as life functions are linked from the bottom of mementos’ screens of hope ramblings in humanistic thoughts provoking false impressions of abiding benefits, there will these contiguous illusions of what constitute immortality. Interestingly enough, whatever structures the strata of mementoes effectively embargo the weariness of mortality, which cannot be first and most importantly than what is responsive at length. Grace scriptural cognitions are solely the enlighteningly informative source reaching the resolved state regarding immortality. All non-responsive entities in aspects of perpetuity abidingly gravitate to variations of unsolicited agony over and beyond what is discarded in their infiltrations. Valid comprehensions of these ideas in philosophical developments exude confidently, as well as conveniently, knowledge that does not stumble across the unshakably un-enduring meaning of life.
Humankind certainly does not know now how to obtain nor retain endurance of anything genuinely exhibiting what endlessly abide in happiness or anything else. Everything artificially prompted is eventually superseded in its demise however such is explicated in transactions of human secessions. “Marginal” immortality does not suffice in anything meaningful, as to whether existence exudes the task and/or goal of things remaining intact. Insufficient provisions of immortality demonstrate scarce evidence necessitated only in modes attempting to apprehend extremely long life spans. These flawed technological perceptions to prolong human life simply expend expeditions of modes to project illusions of plausibly humanly determinable decisions. To what advantage would this venture avail without abiding sustenance? As time passes, “technological advances,” masquerading in deceptive appearances, eventually convict every notion of accommodating such in any verifiable mode or manner.
The Grace Scriptures express that mechanized assemblages of existence are completely irrelevant for qualifying criteria of abiding perpetuity. Continuance without any interruption necessitates complete isolation from all constantly repeated or renewed occurrences. Death is a recurrent theme decisively interrupting any such systemic flow. Whatever is perceived in this vein could continue only until death, hence, so none could ever escape out of it and be distinctly cognizant of the information of experiencing more than the extending confines of manifestations, in lieu of actualized reality. Because of this, actual durations defy induced consciousness in its irrelevancy of signifying abiding permanence; whether 50 years or 5 minutes, such does not quantify any substantial nor adequate amount of certified actuality!
Hence, in conveying “Why we are Secure, Regardless of Physical Life’s Insufficiencies;” absolutely, strangely, its climactic conflicts always are effectively resolved in the Grace Scriptures. This is why we express the need of raising our voices against the cogitation that physicality’s workings are what arouse the conscience of existence. Thus, we take a stand against investing in unseen things. The critics of prioritized Eternal Thinking will of course point to their swelling numbers as certification of their doctrinal persuasions. Also, they seek through orthodoxy and tradition to intimidate purely non-material affiliations. In this manner, they endeavor to ridicule in the most negative and most vicious way, those opposing their surmised “progressive move of God,” which is more aligned with “religious conventional policy. As we understand, opposition to such teaching hampers the budget of our ministry’s church organization. Alarmingly, those who disagree with sound Grace covenantal teaching want Christendom’s respect more than they want God’s refurbishing.
However, as the Apostle Paul declared, “but I make account of none of these” (acts 20:24), hence we will stand with the Truth revealed in revelation of the Mystery Message in lieu of traditional, denominational consensual messages. What constitute truth is never determined by looking at what is politically, socially, philosophically or economically expedient budget-wise. In fact, we are unaware of any instance in the Bible whereof God ever consulted with His people in taking any sort of “poll of the majority opinion." Ultimately a genuine ministry is never an explorer for humanity’s consensus but a molder of scriptural consensus. On some positions, cowardice asks the question, is it expedient? And then Grace Expedience comes along and asks the question, is it Truth? Vanity asks the question, is it popular? Conscience asks the question, is it correct? Eternal Truth espouses the position that is neither safe nor socially prudent nor popular, but it is the actual conveyance of God’s Word; compelled by what scripturally enlightened conscience dictates is right.
We believe today that there is need for God’s people to come to internalize enlightenment, which will genuinely incite spiritual consensus in a massive act of conscience indwelled in the security of the “eternal unseen rather than temporarily seen” (II Corinthians 4:18). This is the challenge we are facing and opportunity availing in all Grace Assemblies and allow me to close by saying that we have difficult days ahead in this struggle but we must not yield in despair because our numbers are few and even because some of our own worship services’ attendees are seemingly entrapped in their imagination of security in earthly wares. We are going to maintain hope as we endeavor in this progression. The cards are stacked against us, i.e., the cards infiltrated with neglect and fear, which has festered a nagging lethargy for selflessness, in divergence to a yearning sacrifice and service. As pastor, sometimes I get weary but thank God for His comprehensions of Eternality, which internalized determination is truly the great abode that it was decreed to be.
So I say to you that our goal is Internalized Enlightenment and I believe we are going to get there because however much we may drift away from it, this indeed is our secured goal of hope abiding solely in the Heavenlies in Christ (Ephesians 1:3); unseen and undaunted by the abuses and scorns of Depraved Creation. Our destiny is in providence of the actuality of God’s Decree in Eternity, where we were chosen, sanctified (set apart), given God’s nature and established as member of Christ’s body ….. before we were manifestly encapsulated in human flesh solely for testimonial purposes. Accordingly, we are safe and secure, in spite of all the difficulties and insufficiencies encountered in the temporary Time Loops, because actualization-wise, we were and therefore are …Before Adam was etched across the pages of human history, we were and are …Before earthen manifestation of human sinfulness and preordained redemption of the elect on Christ’s cross more than 2000 years ago; we were and are ….Before the many centuries of God’s forbearance through Christ’s labored wages in the midst of the most humiliating and oppressive sin natured conditions.
And yet there is the secured bottomless vitality of continued growth and development in our earthly manifested lives. In spite of the inexpressible cruelties of this life, all opposition that we now face will surely fail. We are right now victorious because both the sacred heritage of our imputed nature and Eternal Will of almighty God are embodied demands that ultimately, as all manifestations do, flow from the actualized state of God’s Decree. And so, however dark it is, however deep angry sensations are and however violent explosions are, we can still sing "We are Safe and Secure from all Alarms." We are safe because we were and are eternally justified, thus sanctified; we are safe because God is sovereign and right and “No lie can live forever." We are safe because Truth forever abides and wrong is decimated in the future and behind the temporarily dim unknown stands God within the shadows keeping watch above His beloved.
With internalized faith we have been and are enabled to hew out of Time Loops’ mountains of despair; the stone of Eternal Hope. With internalized faith we have been and are enabled to transform jangling discords of human nature into beautiful symphonies of anticipations. Thank God for the commissioning of our beloved, Apostle Paul, who centuries ago out on a lonely, obscure road to Damascus, was apprehended albeit manifestly ordained and given in Arabia, the Revelation of the Mystery, our Grace Covenant; this illumination of an Eternal Inheritance in Christ Jesus. As glorious as the “New Jerusalem descending out of Heaven from God,” testimony is: "Behold, I make all things new; former things are passed away;" God eternally granted an even “better covenant” whose recipients in this newness and this magnificent development has indeed a greater Testimony: that we were and therefore are “a new creation; the old things having passed away, lo, all things having been and are new”(II Corinthians 5:17); and that is ” Why we are Secure, Regardless of Physical Life’s Insufficiencies!” Happy New Year and God bless you according to His will!
