  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Well, you probably know that I voted "single point particle".
And actually I think it is contained within the single point particle.

Please explain this. You think it is contained within the particle? What do you mean by this?

There is a post in here somewhere explaining it.
Basically, God is One, and everything is contained within God.
The question of the Trinity, God being one yet three, is due to God subdividing within God.
It is just like when sperm meets egg, the new cell begins as one, then divides into two, then four, then eight.
The "body" remains a single body, but it subdivides into many. And each cell within the cell has a specific function determined by the DNA structure.
In reality, our bodies are a single cell that subdivided, and the whole is contained within our skin.

Well, with God, the first subdivision was to two, the male Father and female Holy Spirit. Then it went to three, the male Father, the female Holy Spirit, and the male-female Offspring or Son. All of the creation is the Son within the Parent, God the Father and Holy Spirit, which is within God the One.
So in a very real sense, we are all "one" with God. Even though we are not individually God, or even collectively God, we are all a part of God.

The universe we know is a space opened within God, the single point.
The Son, being the creation, is the single point particle. The Son being the exact image of God is identical to God in every respect, except that the Son has physical substance while God the One is Spirit only.
The Alpha is the single point, the Son is the Life of God brought into physical reality growing within God. Just like a baby growing within the mother. The Omega is the final result of this Life, or Son of God, and is once again a pure Spirit and oince again one with God the One.
Alpha - beginning, Omega - end. Both Spirit, but the Alpha-Omega now has a body. Of pure Light with no darkness remaining, as the darkness was separated from the Light during the growing process of the Life of the Son.
And the Light is the Life.

All the matter eventually dissolves. But the universe does not "die".
"Space" is the expansion within the single point particle for the Body of God to grow in, and the physical substance, all the matter, is the physical body of God.
The matter is a combination of the mass and energy used in the formation of Light.
The mass is a denser form of the energy.
And the energy is God.
And God cannot die.

I thought it was an ongoing process, not one that would "start" sometime in the future.

Yes, it has been happening from the moment of the Big Bang. Just like humans, the Universe had a birth, and through age, will have a death.
