"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed" (Einstein). "My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind" (Einstein).
What mystifies you? What makes you stand in awe? What does your religion consist of? I would like to divide this article into 2 - Parts to discuss the following questions:
7 1 4 Saw
Part 1. Is there ancient historical evidence for a 7 - Dimensional God for All peoples of All religions?
Part 2. If so, Who is this 7 - Dimensional God?
As a foundation for this article, I would encourage you to read my two previous articles that support a seven dimensional theory of everything: Quote from the article: Contemplating a 7 - Dimensional Theory of Everything, "For from the farthest reaches of the cosmos to the atomic structure of a single cell within the body, the same dimensions of form and mathematics apply. The secret to life is in these forms and numbers. So by studying anything in life, we can learn the basis of all life everywhere. Modern scientists are re-affirming the ancient wisdom of ancient civilizations - that a consistent multidimensional design underpins every level of the universe, from atoms to the galaxies."
Before we go any further, I would like to apologize in advance for offending anyone's religious sensitivities, as this is a work in progress that is very, very far from perfect, and I am fully aware of my biases toward Christianity. I would also like to say that this article is intended for those that do not believe in God or are confused about religion. With the above disclaimer to having and/ or knowing the absolute truth, I would like to present what I believe to be the origins of ancient religious knowledge and ageless wisdom that give us some answers to how ancient civilizations viewed these questions.
Part 1: Is there historical evidence for a 7 - Dimensional God for All peoples of All religions?
The 7 Traditional Arguments for the Existence of God: In order to consider ancient religions, we must first assume that there is a God/Gods/ or Goddesses. Throughout astrophysical literature these 7 arguments are often referred to.
1. Cosmological Arguments: the effect of the universe's existence must have a "first cause."
2. Teleological Arguments: the design of the universe implies a complex order, purpose or direction behind it.
3. Rational Arguments: the operation of the universe, according to order and natural law implies a mind behind it.
4. Ontological Arguments: man's ideas or concept of God (his God-consciousness) implies a God who imprinted such a consciousness.
5. Moral Arguments: man's built-in sense of right and wrong can be accounted for only by the existence of objective morality or an innate awareness of a code of law--an awareness implanted by a higher being.
6. Anthropic Arguments: the basic facts of reality, such as our existence, are best explained by the existence of God.
7. Transcendental Arguments: science, logic, and ethics do not make sense in the absence of God, and atheistic arguments must ultimately refute themselves if pressed with rigorous consistency.
Note: Belief must be grounded in faith and can not be based on rational intellectual arguments alone. For example: If you could argue someone into believing that God exists, then you could probably argue that same person into believing that God doesn't exist.
The 7 Major Expressions of "Present Day" Religions: To support evidence for the present existence of God, we will consider the major influences of religious expression on the world population today and look to their origins. According to "Major Religions of the World Ranked by Number of Adherents, there are 7 Religious Expressions that account for 98% of our present global population:
1. Ancient Mystery Religions - 6% (includes primal-indigenous - African, Traditional)
2. Judaism -.22%
3. Hinduism - 14%
4. Buddhism - 6% (includes Zen)
5. Chinese Traditional - 6% (includes Folk Taoism, Confucianism, Shenism)
6. Christianity - 33% (includes Catholic, Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, Pentecostal, Anglican, Monophysite, AICs, Latter-day Saints, Evangelical, SDAs, Jehovah's Witnesses, Quakers, AOG, nominal, etc.)
7. Islam - 21% (includes Shiite, Sunni, etc.)
"Nonreligious" (includes - agnostic, atheist, secular humanist, and people answering no religious preference) - 16% or 109,868,560 people. (World population was 6,866,800,306 on Sep 05, 2010).
Note: Total adds up to more than 100% (102.22) due to rounding and because upper bound estimates were used for each group. Although the above list of 7 major forms of religion accounts for approximately 98% of the world's population, this is not a complete listing of world religions as there are over 4,300 distinct faith groups covering all countries of the world (See adherents.com/ Religions for further details).
The 7 Major Expressions of Ancient Religions and the 7 Dimensions: "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse," (The Bible, Romans 1:20).
It is clear from the above verse that God has revealed himself to all humans throughout history -even prior to the development of religions. Following are the above 7 major world religions with some of their 7 - Dimensional influences and dates founded:
1. Ancient Mystery Religions: The 7 Days of Creation (Prehistory)
2. Judaism: The 7 Spirits of God (2000 B.C.)
3. Hinduism: The 7 Chakras (1500 B.C.)
4. Buddhism: The 7 Points of Proper Religion (523 B.C.)
5. Chinese Traditional: The 7 Lucky Gods (270 B.C.)
6. Christianity: The 7 Gifts of the Holy Spirit (30 A.D.)
7. Islam: The 7 Heavens (610 A.D.)
The 7 - Dimensions of Ancient Holy Scriptures - Worldwide: It appears that the number 7 is the universal sacred number that represents spiritual perfection and divine completeness, and it is referred quite often in sacred literatures worldwide.
1. Ancient Mystery Religions: The oldest evidence for the belief in some form of God of the afterlife are Neanderthal burial sites estimated by anthropologists to be approximately 70,000 years old. The corpses in these graves were buried with various supplies carefully arranged around them to prepare them for the afterlife.
Prehistory religious scriptures include: The 7 Days of Creation (Genesis: 1:1 - 2:3), The 7 Colors of the electromagnetic spectrum of the rainbow (Genesis 9:8), The 7 Archangels: In the letter of Jude 1:14-15, the New Testament makes reference to the first Book of Enoch that names the 7 as:
1. Michael, 2. Gabriel, 3. Raphael, 4. Uriel, 5. Raquel, 6. Zerachiel, and 7. Remiel. Legend has it that these 7 Archangels stood in the presence of God Almighty and reflected the 7 Rays of Light from God's throne in Heaven to the Universe.
2. Judaism: The most frequent references to the number 7 are found in the Bible's Old Testament. According to the NIV Complete Concordance - there are approximately 395 references that include the following: 7 days (Gen. 8:12, Lev. 13:33), 7 years (Gen. 11:12), 7 altars, 7 bullocks, 7 rams (Num. 23:1), 7 weeks (Deut. 16:9), 7 priests, 7 trumpets (Jos. 6:6), and the 7 Spirits of God (Isaiah 11:2) that represent and make up the perfect and complete Holy Spirit.
3. Hinduism: The Rig Veda has many references to 7 regions of the earth (I.22.16), 7 rivers (I.32:12), 7 tongues of agni (I.58:7), 7 singers (I.62:4), 7 castles (I.63:7), 7 strong floods (I.72:8), 7 rays (I.105:9) and 7 sisters (I.164:3). The most popular of all Hindu sacred texts the Bhagavad-Gita Gita contains 700 verses. Number 7 also permeates in various walks of Hindu mythology as well. There are 7 sages--the Sapta Rishis; the Sapta Loka--the 7 worlds; the Sapta Pura--the 7 holy cities; the Sapta Dvipa--the 7 holy islands; the Sapta Samudra--the 7 holy seas; the Sapta Parvatta--the 7 holy mountains; the Sapta Arania--the 7 deserts; the Sapta Vriksha--the 7 sacred trees and so on (Blavatsky, 1880). Vedavyas (1998) mentions about the 7 grades of human consciousness (physical, vital, mental, intellectual, super-mental, spiritual and Divine).
4. Buddhism: The mystery of number 7 has enraptured the Japanese as well. Ancient Japan was founded around 7 districts. In Japanese folklore, there are 7 Buddhist treasures and 7 deities of good luck mentioned above. Japanese Buddhists believe people are reincarnated only 7 times, and 7 weeks of mourning are prescribed following death. The list goes on and on -- the 7 ups and eight downs of life, the 7 autumn flowers, the 7 spring herbs, the 7 types of red pepper, the 7 transformations, and the popular 7-5-3 festival held each November for children. Girls (age 7) are welcomed into womanhood and allowed to wear the obi (decorative sash worn with kimono). Their 7 virtues are candor, fortune, amiability, magnanimity, popularity, longevity, and dignity.
5. Chinese Traditional Religions (including India and Japan): The 7 Lucky Gods of Ancient - India, China, and Japan - The Shichifukujin are an eclectic group of 7 deities from India, China, and Japan. Only one is native to Japan (Ebisu). Three are from the Hindu-Buddhist pantheon of India (Daikokuten, Bishamonten, & Benzaiten) and three from Chinese Taoist-Buddhist traditions (Hotei, Jurojin, & Fukurokuju).
Additional religious scriptures - Zoroastrianism & Sikhism: In Zoroastrian texts too we see references to number 7. The earth is referred to have 7 regions (Yasna 32:3) or 7 quarters (Yasna 57:23). In Sikhism: The Guru Grant Sahib, the scripture of the Sikhs, frequently refer to 7 seas (p. 840, 1036), grain of 7 kinds (p. 695), 7 musical notes (p. 886), 7 nether words (p. 1039), 7 threads (1196), 7 continents (p. 1392), 7 body elements (p.23), 7 handful of ashes (p. 150), 7 singers (p. 368), 7 pools of ambrosial nectar (p. 436) etc.
6. Christianity: The New Testament has approximately 95 references to the number seven to include the 7 basic Gifts of the Holy Spirit and the 7 fruits of the Holy Spirit. In Romans 12:6-8, Paul lists the 7 basic gifts (vocations/ ministries/ occupational passions), that represent the seeds of all occupations. I will further expound on some of these 95 verses below.
7. Islam: The Qur'an refers to 7 seas (31:27), 7 heavens (2:29) and even 7 earths (65:12)! Also 7 days fast (2:196), 7 kings (12:43,46) and 7 gates (15:44). It is for no reason that Muslim pilgrims go round the Ka'ba 7 times. In the history of Islam, prophet Muhammad had permitted 7 different readings of the Qur'an (Bukhari, VI No. 514), though only one of these have become popular these days.
The complete Christian Bible containing the Old and New Testaments may have the most frequent references to the number 7 as there are approximately 490 (70 times 7).
7 Dimensions and the Fall of Jericho: "Then the LORD said to Joshua, See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its fighting men. March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. Have 7 priests carry trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark. On the 7th day, march around the city 7 times, with the priests blowing the 7 trumpets. When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have all the people give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the people will go up, every man straight in" (Joshua 6:2-5).
7 Dimensions and the Trinity: God the father (7 Spirits), God the Son (7 Stars), God the Holy Spirit (7 Gifts)
7 - Spirits 7 - Stars 7 - Gifts
1. Power Michael Serving
2. Lord Gabriel Leading
3. Knowledge Raphael Teaching
4. Understanding Uriel Mercy
5. Wisdom Raquel Giving
6. Counsel Zerachiel Counseling
7. Fear Remiel Prophecy
Once again, we see God manifesting His 7 dimensions. All 7 of God's Spirits are necessary to make up the complete Holy Spirit, just as each of the 7 colors of the rainbow make up the white light. God's 7 gifts of the Holy Spirit are necessary for men to come together to pray to God for wisdom and truth to identify their individual gifts to serve God and man - thereby exhibiting the 7 fruits of the Holy Spirit.
Since our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit - created with 7 energy centers or Chakras, we are able to absorb the 7 colors of the visible light spectrum and reflect and give back to God and others the 7 Rays of light (Our 7 Auric Colors), as an offering of Praise, worship, and service. In this Mysterious Order, the 7 dimensions are part of an integrated process for all things that come: From God - Through God (Our bodies being temples of the Holy Spirit) & To God. Some believe that these 7 dimensions govern all of God's creation and are the original divine qualities of God that represent a certain Sevenfold division of everything that exists in the manifested world, to include life and matter. These 7 major types of Light-Substance (Spirit/ Matter), (Waves/ Particles) are believed by some to compose the created universe.
Jesus & 7 Dimensional Forgiveness: If he sins against you 7 times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says, 'I repent,' forgive him" (Luke 17:4). 77 times (Matthew 18:21-22).
Jesus & the 7 Dimensional Miracles: Then he (Jesus) took the 7 loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people. They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up 7 basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was four thousand, besides women and children (Matthew 15:36-38, Mark 8:5 -20).
Jesus & the 7 Dimensions in the Book of Revelation: 7 is said to occur some 490 times (70 X 7) from Genesis to Revelation. In the book of Revelation there are the: 7 Spirits of God (Rev. 1:4), 7 Lamps (Rev.4:5), 7 Seals (Rev. 5:1), 7 Horns (Rev. 5:6), 7 Eyes (Rev. 5:6), 7 Trumpets (Rev. 8:2), 7 Angels (Rev. 8:6), 7 Thunders (Rev. 10:3,4), 7 Angels (Rev.10:7), 7 Thousand People (Rev.11:13), Red Dragon with The Beast with 7 Heads (Rev.12:3), 7 Crowns (Rev. 12:3), 7 Last Plagues (Rev.15:1), 7 Golden Bowls (Rev.15:7), 7 Hills (Rev.17:9), and the 7 Kings (Rev.17:10).
If the above ancient religious scriptures along with the scientific knowledge of the previous two articles give us sufficient evidence for an international/ universal, omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient - 7 Dimensional God, then who is this God?
Note: Considering all the evidence above for a 7 Dimensional God - does not mean that I believe in, rely upon, or trust in it. Although I don't believe that every idea that is not backed up by a biblical scripture is harmful, I do think that we should screen all new information that contradicts basic biblical principles. For example - the bible clearly condemns worshipping other Gods. The first Commandment: "You shall have no other Gods before me."
Part - 2 Who is this 7 - Dimensional God?
The Apostle Paul had to explain to the religious people of Athens just who this unknown God was. "For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Now what you worship as something unknown I am going to proclaim to you. The God who made the world and everything in it is the LORD of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else" (Acts 17:23-25).
The following verses from the New Testament and the Old Testament may give us some clues to consider who is the 7 Dimensional God.
Jesus's 7 Stars & the 7 Golden Lamp Stands: "In his right hand he (Jesus) held 7 stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance (Revelations 1:16). "The mystery of the 7 stars that you saw in my right hand and of the 7 golden lamp stands is this: The 7 stars are the angels of the 7 churches, and the 7 lamp stands are the 7 churches" (Revelations 1:20). The above verses indicate the Jesus is holding the 7 angels who are guarding the 7 churches in his right hand.
Zechariah's Vision of the 7 Eyes & the 7 Lights: "See, the stone I have set in front of Joshua! There are 7 eyes on that one stone, and I will engrave an inscription on it,' says the LORD Almighty, 'and I will remove the sin of this land in a single day (Zechariah 3:9). "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a solid gold lamp-stand with a bowl at the top and 7 lights on it, with 7 channels to the lights.... 'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD Almighty.... "(These 7 are the eyes of the LORD, which range throughout the earth.)" Zechariah 4:2-10).
But you may be asking yourself, how can Jesus be this 7 Dimensional God if he did not even exist in Old Testament times - prior to the development of: Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and the Chinese Traditional Religions. Fortunately, he gives us the answer to this question: "I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds (John 8:58-59).
Many Biblical theologians believe that Jesus Christ came to Earth at various times before the New Testament as Melchizedek, and these appearances are called Christophanies or Theophanies The New International Version Bible's profile on Melchizedek (researched by over 100 Bible scholars) suggests that Melchizedek was: "A person in the Old testament who some believe really was Jesus," and report that "Melchizedek was the appearance on earth of the pre-incarnate Christ in a temporary bodily form." (NIV: Pg. 30 -33).
7 Christophanies: (Appearances of God in bodily form/ Christ as Melchizedek in the Old Testament)
1. Gen 3:8 (And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden)
2. Gen 14:18 (Jesus appears as Melchizedek)
3. Gen 18:3 (And said, My Lord, if now I have found favor in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant.)
4. Gen.32:24-30 (Jacob wrestled with a man and says he has "seen God face to face."
5. Ex.13:21 (The LORD was going before them in a pillar of cloud by day...)
6. Josh 5:13 (the "Man" who appears to Joshua identifies Himself as "the commander of the army of the LORD," and He accepted Joshua's prostrate worship, whereas angels refuse such worship.)
7. Dan. 3:23 (When the fourth man in the furnace is described as "like a son of the gods.")
7 Times - In the Order of Melchizedek (Who is this Melchizedek?): "You (Jesus) are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek." The foundation of Jesus's Priesthood is based on being - "In the Order of Melchizedek." It is documented 7 times in the Bible (Psalm 110:4, Hebrews 5:6, Hebrews 5:10, Hebrew 6:20, Hebrews 7:1, Hebrews 7:11, Hebrews 7:17).
7 Similarities of Jesus and Melchizedek:
1. Both have the title of "Priest of God Most High" (Hebrews 5:6, Genesis 14:18, Psalm 110:4 )
2. Both have the title of "King of Righteousness" (Hebrews 1:8, Hebrews 7:2)
3. Both have the title of "King of Peace" (Isaiah 9:6, Hebrews 7:2)
4. Both have "Indestructible lives and Eternal Priesthoods" (Isaiah 5:6, Hebrews 7:3)
5. Both were Pre-existent - or existed before they were born on earth (Micah 5:2, Proverbs 8:22-31, Hebrews 7:3)
6. Both have the titles like the "Son of God" (Mark 1:1, Heb. 7:3)
7. Both are Appointed by God, and did not depend upon genealogy as the Aaronic priesthood (Hebrews 7:14, Hebrews 7: 3)
Ok - So what does all this mean? I would suggest that you pick up the New Testament and read in the book of Hebrews, Chapters 5 threw 10 in order to gain a better understanding of Melchizedek.
The Apostle Paul & Melchizedek: It is interesting that the Apostle Paul gives us the following warning in Hebrews 5:11-12, right after discussing Melchizedek (Hebrews 5:10): "We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain because you are slow to learn. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!"
The following verses may give us some more clues to reveal who the 7 - Dimensional God is:
1. God said to Moses, "I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you,' (Exodus 22:13).
2. Jesus: "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End,"(Revelation 22:13).
3. Melchizedek: "Without father or mother, without genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God he remains a priest forever (Hebrews 7:3).
4. Jesus: "I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" (John 8:58).
5. In John 1:1-3, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made."
6. In John 10:30, Jesus says that to see Him is to see the Father.
7. Later in John 14:7-9, Jesus adds that to know Him is to know the Father.
Many Bible scholars believe that Melchizedek was the appearance on earth of the pre-incarnate Christ in a temporary bodily form. It was Melchizedek who delivered God's Covenant to Abraham and introduced the revolutionary concept of salvation through pure faith to the thinking of the planet. It is Melchizedek who is believed to be the Father of the 7 Elohim (Angels of the Divine Presence), that reflect the 7 Rays of Light.
Abraham and Melchizedek: Melchizedek brought out bread and wine (Communion) and blessed Abram (Abraham) - the father of all monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam, etc.). Abraham in turn tithed to Melchizedek (gave him 10% of all the booty collected after defeating Kedorlaomer and the king's allied with him (Genesis 14: 18-20).
Melchizedek is mentioned again in Psalm 110: "The Lord has sworn, and he will not repent: You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek" (110:4). This psalm is considered one of the most important of the Messianic psalms, identifying the forthcoming Messiah, our Lord Jesus Christ, as King, Priest, and Conqueror.
Church History and Melchizedek: The Church honors this image of Melchizedek. The Catechism teaches, "the Christian tradition considers Melchizedek, 'priest of God Most High,' as a prefiguration of the priesthood of Christ, the unique 'high priest after the order of Melchizedek'; holy, blameless, unstained, by a single offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified, that is, by the unique sacrifice of the cross". "The Church sees in the gesture of the king-priest Melchizedek, who brought out bread and wine,' a prefiguring of her own offering."
The Dead Sea Scrolls and Melchizedek: The Dead Sea Scroll discovery of 1947 that validates the authenticity of our Bible today - revealed the Messiah to be a reincarnation of Melchizedek. These scrolls from the Jewish Essenes that were discovered affirmed that they believed Melchizedek would reincarnate as the Messiah.
In essence, Melchizedek returned to earth after 2000 years in the bodily form of Jesus Christ to restore God's people back to a Royal Priesthood of Believers - a Holy Nation to worship the One True God (Monotheism). This was accomplished by putting aside the Old Covenant with it's Aaronic/ Levitical Priesthood and it's temple worship rituals to establish the New Covenant with Christ as our High Priest and mediator - "who did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one, but He entered heaven itself, now to appear for us eternally in God's presence" (Hebrews 9:24).
Discussion: The above historical evidence may support a 7 Dimensional God for Christianity and Judaism, but what about the other religions? The Apostle Paul asked this same question: Is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles (All others: atheists, agnostics, and other religions) too? And this was his answer: "Yes, of Gentiles too, since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith," (Romans 3:29).
Now as a Christian, I believe that I am saved by grace through faith in the righteousness of Jesus Christ (Eph. 2:89). However, the Bible gives several examples of men in the book of Hebrews - Chapter 11 (Abel, Enoch, Noah, & Abram) who believed God and by faith it was credited to them as righteousness. Abel, Enoch, Noah, and Abram (who later was renamed Abraham) were not Jews or Christians. This ancient mystery "religion" of the Old Testament has one High Priest - Melchizedek.
The 7 Dimensional God of the Bible however, does not provide salvation for any particular religious "group" including Christianity or Judaism. God initially chose to bless the nation Israel who was to become a kingdom of priests and a holy nation where anyone could approach God freely (Exodus 19: 5-6). However they broke his covenant - so God had to temporarily establish the Levitical Priesthood with it's temple worship (organized religion).
With the coming of Jesus, God has once again extended his plan to all believers and established the New Covenant in which all believers are to become a holy nation and royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9, Revelation 5:10). Unfortunately, organized religions of today still rely on "Old Covenant" Christianity - with it's Priest/ Parishioner, Clergy/ Laity, and Pastor/ Congregation models and their temple/ cathedral/ mega-church building worship.
Jesus condemned the organized religion of his day 7 Times, and I believe he would condemn it today. "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! (Matthew 23:13 - 29). This may sound shocking, but Jesus did not come to bring us another organized "Old Covenant" religion called Christianity. Melchizedek came back as Jesus to establish the New Covenant.
Conclusion: I would propose that the 7 Dimensional God of the Universe is Jesus Christ who is our High Priest in the order of Melchizedek. I would also propose that he accepts people from every nation, culture, and yes - even every religious background or up-bringing (Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Chinese Traditionalists, and Moslems, etc.) who recognize his eternal power and divine nature and believe in Him as their God and put their faith in His righteousness for their salvation.
Jesus simplified all religion my saying: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 'This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself. 'All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
One final word - The 7 Dimensional God of all creation came back to us to proclaim a New Covenant (Luke 22:20), stating that he would make the Old Covenant with it's temple worship and human priesthood obsolete, and "what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear," (Hebrews 8:7). So what is the New covenant? See Jeremiah 31:33, for now. It will be revealed in 2012.
This article was not written and should not be viewed or considered to be a formal scientific or theological treatise on ancient civilizations, spirituality and/ or religion. It is merely a simplistic introduction to these topics to reveal how critical they are to the human experience with the hope of assisting individuals to reassess their values, and reexamine their priorities to redefine what is really important in their lives.
My intent is not to persuade, influence, convince, or convert anyone to my personal beliefs, but to increase respect and religious tolerance for people of all nations and cultures. My goal is to help others to clarify and identify where they presently stand at this point in time, so that they can consider charting a course to get from where they are to where they desire to be someday. After all, you cannot make flight reservations if you don't know what airport you will be departing from.

The 5680-01 SKILSAW has a 14-amp, 2.5-horsepower motor that supplies ample strength for ripping through all varieties of wood, while the 7-1/4-inch 24-tooth carbide blade provides the cutting capacity to tackle a variety of projects, including building decks, fencing, sheds, or wooden furniture. The 5680-01 is also 1/2 of a pound lighter and 15% faster than its predecessor (5750-01), reducing user fatigue while increasing efficiency. And the 1 Beam Laser Cut Line™ helps the user make accurate cut lines.
The 5680-01 SKILSAW possesses many innovative safety features including a patented Anti Snag lower guard, which reduces hang-ups in materials when making narrow cutoffs. A rear depth adjustment lever enables the user to easily adjust the depth of cut, while the trigger safety lock prevents accidental starts. A power-on LED alerts the user that the tool is plugged in, and a wide foot guarantees stability and control when making cuts.
