WHAT’S WRONG if anything WITH “NEW AGE” and/or QUANTUM PHYSICS claims?
Said simply, New Age uses God without ascribing to Him the omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence that are exclusively His. They tell me that I am God, that I have limitless spiritual power and that I can create my own reality. This ALMOST makes me feel good – until I remember, not some yukky religious mantras, but the fact that I have Jesus in all His glory … I have Him living on the inside of me as the Holy Spirit … forever and forever.
I know Jesus lives within me, not just because of some blind (religious) faith, but because God says so in His Word. Remember that? – the Bible, which spells out how it is and why it is that there is a unique position for the Creator of the universe, who is not me! But, omigoodness, I do have the full raising-from-the-dead power alive and well living on the inside of me [smiley-face] And that’s a helluva lot of power!
With THIS attitude in mind, I take a look at quantum mechanics – a very l-o-o-o-o-ng look and I can finally say I find IT lacking nothing! People want to grab parts and particles of this amazing phenomenon which has now – finally – reached revelatory status … they want to twist the findings to suit their own mishmash of a mixture of pure physics (which, in its unadulterated state, is as pure as mathematics) and that just plain doesn’t ‘work’.
Dear God, please tell me what else You want me to tell Our readers ‘cuz I haven’t a clue …. Oh, yes! Okay, just elaborate the point We’re making. Okay.
I hope I didn’t just lose anyone or offend anyone by using the pronoun “we” when referring to God and His scribe (in this case, me): I was blessed with this relationship with God before I was yet 5 years old. I (alone) have had a very hard life but We (Him & me) have been having one long, glorious adventure.
Back to the quanta! What an enormous blessing there is for all who love Jesus, to explore. The world of subatomic particles and waves and strings and holograms and entanglements and quarks and music and math – – they all exist here and now. But the amazing thing is that they all actively sing praises to their Creator – our Creator – just exactly like we do! Amen.
