How can God be other than omnipotent when all moves within him and is given movement by him? How can God be other than omniscient when all has being within him and is given being by him? How can God be other than self-existent when all existence exists within him and is given by him? How can God be other than eternal when all eternity exists within him and is given to be eternal by him? I believe that all is in God who is omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient, self-existent, and eternal. Inside of God is all and outside of God is nothing. www.thebreach.us |

I see nothing but Becoming. Be not deceived! It is the fault of your limited outlook and not the fault of the essence of things if you believe that you see firm land anywhere in the ocean of Becoming and Passing. You need names for things, just as if they had a rigid permanence, but the very river in which you bathe a second time is no longer the same one which you entered before. (Heraclitus, 500 B.C.) LOGOS AND THE UNITY OF OPPOSITES FRAGMENT 1 (quoted in Sextus Empiricus, Against the Mathematicians ) Men have no comprehension of the Logos, as I've described it, just as much after they hear about it as they did before they heard about it. Even though all things occur according to the Logos, men seem to have no experience whatsoever, even when they experience the words and deeds which I use to explain physis, of how the Logos applies to each thing, and what it is. The rest of mankind are just as unconscious of what they do while awake as they are of what they do while they sleep. FRAGMENT 50 (quoted in Hippolytus, Refutations ) Listening to the Logos rather than to me, it is wise to agree that all things are in reality one thing and one thing only. FRAGMENT 10 (quoted in Aristotle, On the World ) Things which are put together [1] are both whole and not whole, brought together and taken apart, in harmony and out of harmony; one thing arises from all things, and all things arise from one thing. FRAGMENT 88 (quoted in pseudo-Plutarch, Consolation to Apollo ) As a single, unified thing there exists in us both life and death, waking and sleeping, youth and old age, because the former things having changed are now the latter, and when those latter things change, they become the former. FRAGMENT 51 (quoted in Hippolytus, Refutations ) They do not understand that what differs agrees with itself; it is a back-stretched connection such as the bow or the lyre. [2] FRAGMENT 54 (quoted in Hippolytus, Refutations ) The unapparent connection is more powerful than the apparent one. FRAGMENT 67 (quoted in Hippolytus, Refutations ) God is day and night, winter and summer, war and peace, fullness and hunger; he changes the way fire does when mixed with spices and is named according to each spice.

The beginning of the universe was the sound OM. Brahma is an agent of Brahman, the Supreme Being or Absolute of Hinduism. Brahma is OM and came from Brahman "O Lord, Lead Us From Untruth To Truth, Lead Us From Darkness To Light, Lead Us From Death To Immortality, Aum (the universal sound of God) Let There Be Peace Peace Peace." (Rig Veda) "Om. That supreme Brahman is infinite, and this conditioned Brahman is infinite. The infinite proceeds from infinite. Then through knowledge, realizing the infinitude of the infinite, it remains as infinite alone." (Mandukya Upanishad) GE 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. GE 1:3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. COL 1:15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. HEB 1:3 The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. ISA 55:11 so is my Word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. EPH 4:10 He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe. EPH 1:10 to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment--to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ. www.thebreach.us |

Jeremiah175 (OP) User ID: 50857 United States 05/20/2006 12:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | connected from: Pneuma, Psuche, and Sarx [link to godlikeproductions.com] Pneuma, Psuche, and Sarx Pneuma/Spirit:Producing nature Psuche/Soul(Mind):Processing Sarx/Flesh:Consuming nature Pneuma produces self sufficiently without need of consumption. Psuche is energetically neutral, neither producing nor consuming. It is reliant upon a Pneumatic or Sarxic host. Sarx consumes, relying on outer sources of sustenance such as other flesh. Subtle as subtle manifestation of energy. Flesh as gross manifestation of energy. Psuche as zero point between spirit and flesh, processing each. Mental constructs rely upon outer energies, having no energy of its own. These energies may be spiritual or material (flesh). That which we call demons are disembodied spirit-souls in need of hosts. They are at once cut off from both the higher spiritual world (God and Heaven) and the lower material world (Man and Earth). These demons attach themselves to material hosts (preferably human beings) so as to experience the things of the material world. This option is not open to them in the higher spiritual world. Human beings aggravate this problem in their search for power. When material influence and power are lacking, they may turn (and have for millennia) to the realm of the spirit in the form of magic (spell casting, consultation of spirits) or religion (ritual and sacrifice). In exchange for the limited power they provide, disembodied spirits are “paid” in the form of sacrifice and offerings, hence demon possession, human or animal sacrifice, and the like. The gospel of Jesus Christ is that through him we have been reconciled to God who is in fact the fount of all pure energy and now have access to his power (Holy Spirit) and new birth (from our formerly dead by sin) in and of the spirit. In the absence of access by Christ Jesus we are relegated to life on this mortal rope hanging over the abyss between the shores of spirit and matter. In the abyss lie those demons, those disembodied spirits aforementioned. After new birth, we begin to grow from living/energetic beings to life/energy giving spirits. Christ Jesus was the first to accomplish this, and the only being to ever do so perfectly, but I digress. More to follow… JVS www.thebreach.us |

BRA-MAN User ID: 84479 United States 05/22/2006 10:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | LOGOS AND THE UNITY OF OPPOSITES There’s a saying, ‘children can be cruel’. Well the other evening whilst leaving the bathroom my eleven year old daughter demonstrated just how cruel she could be when she uttered three little words, two of which really cut to the bone. “Hello Bra Man,” she said passing me on the landing and scurrying off downstairs. Bra Man was her latest put down for the Old Man or Grey Head, Gaylord, Numpty, Dorkus, Dopey, Blob plus all the other names she has called me since goodness knows when. The real meaning of Bra Man became all too apparent when I caught sight of my naked torso in the full length wardrobe mirror and realisation set in that my manly breasts were of ample proportions to rival the wife.
