Satan’s Plan

Satan’s Plan, What Is It?

I really don’t know how to describe the story of the Bible other than it is some kind of Cosmic or heavenly chess match. God does something and the devil counterpunches. God responds, leaving the devil to try another end run. What is Satan’s Plan?

At some point, no one really knows when, Satan and his defiant angels were cast out of heaven. Although Satan seems to still have access to heaven as other scriptures indicate. His defiance had to have occurred after angelic beings were created and prior to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Anyway, Satan’s first move was to trick Adam and Eve into consuming something that opened their eyes and supposedly would make them like God’s. Even today that seems to be the lie being told. That we are gods (little g) ourselves. We are not.

God responds by letting the serpent know he’s in for a war. A war in which he will bruise the heel of the woman’s seed (Jesus) and God’s seed will crush his head. It is commonly believed to be the first prophecy recorded in the Bible. I believe they call this the Law of First Occurrence. When God says it for the 1st time it is REALLY important.

Dimensions In The Bible

How Many Dimensions In The Bible

We live in a world of 3 known dimensions. And our mind can piece together a 3 dimensional representation from 2 dimensions. A good example of this is watching a video on a TV or movie screen. But how many dimensions are there really, and how many dimensions are in the Bible? We sometimes think of time as the 4th dimension. Or at least Einstein did.

Ephesians 3: 17-18 make mention of a 4th dimension.

17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

And later in the New Testament we see an example of the 4th dimension in John 20:19 when Jesus enters a room that has a locked door.

19 On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders,Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!”20 After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.

That’s a pretty swell trick and the Bible is full of supernatural instances that seem to involve this 4th dimension. I’ll expand on this later.

Bible Technology

Bible Technology

This is my first post on a website I’ve been wanting to write for sometime. I’m a Christian, albeit not a very good example of one. But I’m trying. I do run my own site called John’s Tech Blog. As you might guess, I love technology. Interestingly enough there is quite a bit of tech in the Bible. I’d like to post some of those examples of Bible Technology on this site. My hope is that it will fascinate you as much as it does me.

About Me

Like I mentioned, I’m not a shining example of a Christian. I’ve always believed in God but have spent a lot of apathetic years not thinking about it as much as I should. I’m far from a Bible scholar and nothing I say here should be taken for …….errrrr……Gospel. You should always do your own research and your primary research tool should be the Bible itself. Additionally, one of my favorite resources was a man named Chuck Missler and he too spoke of technological statements in the Bible frequently. He probably is responsible for my interest in this subject.

I’m also fascinated by Prophecy and feel like we are watching large chunks of it unfold before our eyes currently.
