Death was not a legal punishment for eating the fruit. It was an unalterable consequence of the science of Physics which maintains order in the material world. As a manifestation of the Physics law of Entropy, it is the inexorable degradation from Order to Decay in the absence of constant input of Energy from the Singularity’s c2.
In non-material spirit beings, the degradation from order to decay happens immediately, and immortal beings who separate themselves from the Singularity are forced to constantly hunt down sources of energy to maintain their autonomy from the surrounding energy chaos – think of it like avoiding falling into a fire – or being swallowed up by another hangry spirit being. Best case scenario, flash frozen into immobility.
No doubt this explains why the spirit being Lucifer enlisted a material equivalent serpent to act on his behalf.
“And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:” (Genesis 3:14)
But in material beings’ case, the toxin in the fruit consumed by the Adams was effected in their genetics. Their bodies did not instantly stop functioning, but the process of slow degradation of genetic control over cellular level function was set into motion over a lifetime of gradual degradation of the telomeres at the ends of the chromosomes.
Bearing in mind that the concept of time wasn’t yet in existence when the Adams ate the fruit, we can imagine Lucifer’s response – “Curses! Foiled again!” when the Adams didn’t flash freeze like Lucifer.
Preventing humans from perpetuating the state of corruption was a blessing, not a curse. Consider how it limits the dreadful state of existence observable in nursing homes filled with demented souls in decaying bodies.
“When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day. My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome…I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul…my life…I loathe it; I would not live alway:” (Job 7)
“Restoring” one’s soul and body requires access to resources above and beyond one’s own control. Medications are designed to restore the balance in metabolism, neurological, hormonal and other physical processes. Psychology aims to restore balance in emotional and cognitive functioning. Only the Almighty can restore spirit energy available only through connection to God in spiritual processes of moral accountability / confession of sin, forgiveness / relieving the consequences of self-and-other destruction, and healing of the effects of damage done to the healthy function of body and soul.
We can deduce from applying scientific discoveries that one aspect of death that occurred “in the day” that the woman ate the toxic fruit was the immediate loss of the immortality of the DNA that controls the entire body. The protective ends on the chromosomes carrying the DNA – something like the plastic ends on shoelaces – began degenerating. Without the telomere’s protection, duplication of DNA unravels, causing deterioration, aging and ultimately enough loss of function to result in death.
Fixing the ‘problem’ of ageing is the mission of Silicon Valley, where billions is pouring into biotech firms working to ‘hack the code’ of life – despite concerns about the social implications…“There is an increasing number of people realising that the concept of anti-ageing medicine that actually works is going to be the biggest industry that ever existed by some huge margin.
This has negative consequences, however. Death is not all bad.
Remembering the trinitarianism of e=mc2, the same mortal state which leads to bodily illness and decay is also vice versa in bodily transformation of growth and healing. And so, destruction of mortal tissue is not necessarily a bad thing. We know this from burning off warts, and radiating cancer cells – which then allows new, healthy growth!
Regulated cell death (RCD) refers to the form of cell death that can be regulated by a variety of biomacromolecules. Cancer treatment strategies attack cancer cells with drugs targeting this RCD process. Persons with immortalized telomeres would have their bodies and brains overwhelmed by cancers and other invasive agents.
This undesirable side effect is already a reality with drugs used to treat autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis. The drugs shutting down the immune function to relieve the illness expose the patient to a host of unchecked invaders.
We can expect that the anti-christ’s imitation of Christ steps up what has become a routine saving from the current high-death-rate epidemic to a promise of immortality. Because he has no access to the Singularity’s unending power, his vaccination backfires into a horrible zombie state. But not to worry. God gives freedom to choose. It will be marketed as Immortality. The COVID campaign can be seen as just the set up for mass compliance for the final pandemic when humanity world-wide won’t be able to keep a job or purchase food without proof of vaccination.
Any efforts to maintain physical functioning without the Singularity’s life force causes decay into The Walking Dead.
- Defining immortality as a lack of decay, disease and degeneration, violent death would still be a possible means of ending life, of which which humans would live in constant dread.
- A surge in crime would follow both the release of hardened criminals and the lack of adequate deterrent in time-delimited prison sentences. Life sentences would doubtlessly be forbidden as cruel and unusual punishment as being stuck in a cell for eternity could be considered by some to be hell.
- Individuals would spend thousands of years in the job as people higher up the chain aren’t moving out. There would be no retirement because pensions couldn’t be afforded by industries nor social security by governments. There would be endemic poverty from lack of employment as many industries wouldn’t exist, in particular the medical and related health care industries, many government services, and products and services catering to a wealthy population which wouldn’t exist. We would see masses of laborers for food production and building projects benefiting the small elite class.
- Society would be unable to rid itself of tyranny of the rulers, and thus unable to progress ethically. The only changes made would be through mass psychological conditioning and reprogramming – by those in control, to minimize unrest only, not to effect change for the masses.
- Life would develop a monotonous schedule based around needs, habits and commitments. Emotions and relationships would devolve into cold-hearted apathy and intense bitterness.
- Without a deadline to achieve a goal there would be no drive to fulfill dreams and effect personal transformation with the alternative behaviors of engaging in extreme forms of hedonism to feel alive.
- Society would experience worsening of the usual social rifts caused by wealth tending to ‘pool’ at the top of the system, resulting in perpetual civil war between classes within a nation and international war between competing nations.
- As a form of electrical energy, according to the laws of physics brain activity experienced as cognition and emotions would deteriorate into psychotic states.
- It’s a well documented and explained phenomenon, originating from the fact that the older you are, the smaller proportion of your life a period of time is perceived to be. The side effect of this phenomenon is that memories will eventually fade into one convoluted mess.
- Overpopulation would put huge strains on earth’s ecosystem leading to the end of all life.
These philosophical ramblings on immortality – by a humanist – nevertheless match the biblical distinction between mortal and immortal, which is changing – or not. We implicitly know this from the processes of sickness, injury, and aging.
The true Christ stresses his campaign promise that death of the physical body is not the end of life! Let it go!
Jesus Christ is the prototype, the leader we can safely follow because he proved by his own death and resurrection that transformation to immortality only happens through breaking free from this mortal body.
“Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.” (I Corinthians 15:50-54)
It turns out that mortality as corruptible – decay and death – is not a trap! It’s a release! It’s not a coffin lid slamming shut, it’s a door opening to another plane of existence! This is not a vague magical concept but very much a physical reality observed in regaining health after radiation treatment for terminal lung cancer.
What a crazy idea! Death is humanity’s greatest strength against immortals because, unlike immortals created in that unchangeable state, mortals change!
If only the Adversary had known!
Kingdom Come
