Words Precede Light (Part 3: The Miraculous Melding of Word and Light Series)

The expectation for the blood-bought is truly out of this world.  The BORN AGAIN know this expectation as the blessed hope.  The blessed hope is eternal life in Christ Jesus in Paradise, a new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness.  All their life long, men live in the shadow of the fear of death, but the redeemed have no such fear.  For the redeemed, the deathbed is coronation day.  I Corinthians 15:51-57:

51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 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.

53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

54 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.

55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

For those who don’t know the blessed hope, the outcome of the deathbed experience is beyond bleak.  The way of escape is the Cross of Jesus Christ.  There is NO other way…none.  Acts 4:10-12:

10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Dear visitor, have you been BORN AGAIN?  Today, you are in the valley of decision.  The prophet Joel pens the following words in Joel 3:14:

Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.   

Your eternal soul is in your own hand.  In just a few moments, I will invite you to follow me in a simple prompt, and if you follow from your heart, everything changes for you today.  Some of you visiting have arrived at your deathbed.  Dark anticipation hovers, fear and foreboding, but that will all change in moments.  Today…all your sin and shame will be washed away by Christ’s cleansing blood.  Today…all of Satan’s bondages will be broken.  Today…you will be BORN AGAIN—born a very real second time, this time of the Spirit of God.  Today…you will become a son or daughter of God.  Today…your fear of death will be replaced with the blessed hope and I Corinthians 15:54-55 will be yours:   

54 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.

55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

Your time to decide has arrived.  Here is the prompt I promised: Click onto Further with Jesus for childlike instructions and immediate entry into the Kingdom of God.  NOW FOR TODAY’S SUBJECT.

GOD SAID, Genesis 1:3:

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

GOD SAID, Psalm 119:105:

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

GOD SAID, Matthew 6:22-23:

22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

MAN SAID: You wanna know what I would do if the world wide web went down? Wow! That would be a big problem!  What would I do if I couldn’t ask my phone?! The thought is terrifying!

Now THE RECORD: Welcome to GodSaidManSaid feature 1290, which will once again contend for the faith.  Each of these faith-building features are archived here in text and streaming audio for your edification and for your use in your own personal evangelizing for Christ. Every Thursday eve, God willing, they grow by one.

Thank you for visiting.  May God’s face shine upon you with Light and Truth.

The beyond marvelous melding of words and light house the mysteries of the power of the Creator of the earth and its universe, and He reveals these mysteries to the childlike whose ears are bowed down.  Some of that Holy Ghost revelation is discovered in this GodSaidManSaid series. Approach these marvels of the Book with reverent expectation.  These principles change everything regarding this carnal existence.  I am far from exaggerating.

Features One and Two revolved around I John 1:5:

This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

If God is light—and He certainly is—then light will have the attributes of God—and it does. God can travel at least at the speed of light, which is 670,616,629 miles per hour:

Let’s try to put into perspective the speed of light and how it relates to us.  For this example, I’ve assigned 5 mph as the average foot travel speed of man—not running or walking, but about a jog.  If God is light (and He is), then He can travel at least at the speed of light—670,616,629 miles per hour.  Divide that number by 5 mph (foot travel speed of man), and God is 134,123,626 times faster than man—not running or walking, but at a jog. 

When considering the calculations and their assumptions in this feature, one must keep in mind that God is timeless, from everlasting to everlasting and even filleth all things—but this exercise will help to put into proper perspective our existence as well as the earth’s and it’s universe. 

Some labor under the misunderstanding that the Bible does not date creation, but it certainly does. The Word of God uses genealogies to date; for example, the time from Adam to Noah’s flood.  From the moment Adam opened his eyes on the sixth day of creation until Noah and family boarded the ark was 1,656 years.  The dating pattern is laid out in Genesis 5:3:

And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:

When you add the years from father to son until you get to the global flood, you will arrive at 1,656 years.  Using genealogies and the reigns of judges, kings, and other Biblical dating anchors, one can date the basic age of the earth:

According to highly-acclaimed chronologist Archbishop Ussher, who wrote his grand tome The Annals of the World  in the mid-1600s, the beginning of God’s creation of the world was on the evening preceding the 21^st day of September, 4004 BC.  That date is on the Gregorian calendar, which we use today.  The work began on what is commonly called Sunday, which the Bible knows as the first day of the week, or the Lord’s Day. 

When you add 4004 BC, the date Ussher calculated Creation began, to 2025 AD, you have a earth and universe that is 6,029 years old.  That’s about 2,202,092 days, including leap years.  Using the speed-of-light calculations, one man day equals 0.000000007 of a God day.  6,029 years is about 21.6 minutes in “God time.” 

Moses penned the first five books of the Bible nearly 4,000 man-years ago, but using the speed-of-light analysis, that’s just 14 God-minutes ago.  Consider Isaiah 55:9:

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.   

The carnal academics cannot connect the dots.  They certainly have not considered I John 1:5 that reports “…God is light.”

⦁ Science has now come to the conclusion that light has immortal-like attributes.  God is light and He is immortal. 

⦁ Science theorizes that at the speed of light, time stops.  At the speed of light, you cannot age.  God is light and He is ageless and timeless. Exodus 3:13-14:

13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?

14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.  

⦁ Science has concluded that all matter, physical things, are created out of energy.  The earth’s source of energy is found in photons, light packets from the sun.  God is light, the source of all light, and the maker of everything visible and invisible.

John 1:1:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

God is not only light, but He is also the Word.  The melding of words and light is glorious to consider.

God speaks everything into existence with His Words.  Psalm 33:6:

By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

You and I are word products. Even our DNA gives its building instructions using a four-letter alphabet that biologists have dubbed “the book of life.” Words…just words.

The automobile is a good example of the utter primacy of words. Many years ago, I was attending a little league baseball game my oldest son was participating in.  Another father and I were in conversation, and God’s Word came up.  The man cast off what I had said, informing me that the Bible was “just words,” as though words were of little value.  I asked him how he got to the game, and was told that he “drove up in his car.” I then offered to prove to him that his car was made out of words.  He sneered back, “try it!”  So I did.  The story went like this:

Before there was ever an automobile, a fellow was riding down a dirt road in a buckboard being pulled by a horse, taking all day riding over ruts and bumps to do what now takes us 30 minutes of relatively smooth travel, accompanied by surround sound and air conditioning.  Somewhere along the way, our inventor thought, wouldn’t it be great to have a horseless carriage—silent words in his mind.

I stopped the story to ask the other parent what we had so far, and he answered “words.”  The automobile had its origin in words. 

So the inventor thought about this “horseless carriage” all the way home.  When he gets home, he gets out a tablet and a pencil.  He writes out instructions and draws word-pictures and designs schematics. 

Again, I asked what we had so far, and the man rightly responded, “words.” 

Now, our excited inventor goes out into the field and digs up iron ore and other minerals to produce steel, to make the parts of his horseless carriage—and all those materials were created by God with His Words of intent and knowledge.  Finally, our inventor drives down the road in his word-mobile. 

It really is that childlike simple. The Holy Ghost, everyday functional power of the Word revelation is beyond amazing.

In science, it’s called the first law of thermodynamics, or the law of conservation.  This law states that you cannot create energy or matter; it can change form back and forth, but the original quantity always remains the same.   

They always end up here.  Dr. Gary Schwartz, who wrote the book The G.O.D. Experiments with co-author William Simon, quotes Gerald L. Schroeder, PhD, on page 169:

Changing one’s paradigm is not easy.  Millennia passed before humankind discovered that energy is the basis of matter.  It may take a few more years before we prove that wisdom and knowledge are the basis of—and can actually create—energy, which in turn creates matter. [End of quote]

Keep in mind that energy is light packages from the sun called photons.  Concepts like quantum consciousness are causing some scientists to theorize that soon it will be established that words of wisdom and knowledge will be proven to create energy itself.  In other words, words before light. This principle is sound Bible teaching, for in the Scriptures it is established that words precede light.  Consider a few verses:

🕇 Genesis 1:3: And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

🕇 Psalm 119:105: Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

🕇 Psalm 119:130: The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

When science arrives at words before light, they will discover that the faithful have been there for thousands of years. 

God is the Word and God is light, all attributes of God and interchangeable.

Throughout these features, you will encounter the amazing truth found in Proverbs 18:21:

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

The tongue and its words have the power of death and life.  Jesus cautions about words in Matthew 12:36-37:

36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

You’ll see the marvelous meld of words and light in the following research lifted from previous GodSaidManSaid features.

🟊 GodSaidManSaid, “The Ultimate Primacy of Words (2: Words Make Things):”

Dr. B.H. Lipton penned the following on the power of words in his book, Biology of Belief:

Thought “energy” can activate or inhibit the cell’s function-producing proteins via the mechanics of constructive and destructive interference. 

The fact is that harnessing the power of your mind can be more effective than the drugs you have been programmed to believe you need. The research [previously described] found that energy is a more efficient means of affecting matter than chemicals. [End of quote]

Remember, energy is photons from the sun.

How do thoughts (silent words) and spoken words turn into light in the body and produce physical results such as health or disease?  The following excerpts are from Dr. Don Colbert’s book Deadly Emotions:

We can sum up in one word the basic communication link between what we think in the brain and what we experience in the cells of the body: neuropeptides.  Now, before your eyes glaze over and you assume that I’m going to assault you with a lot of medical mumbo-jumbo, let me assure you that I’m going to describe the physical process of how emotions turn into disease in very simple terms.  Those of you who are physicians or medical researchers may find this explanation overly simplified, but I ask for your patience.  Dr. Candace Pert, a noted stress researcher, demonstrated that a certain class of our immune cells—the monocytes—have tiny molecules on their surface called neuroreceptors that are a perfect fit for neuropeptides.  All of the monocytes have these receptor sites. 

The brain produces the neuropeptides—which are chains of amino acids—and conducts them along the nerve cells throughout the body.  They are like the keys that fit into the molecular locks of every cell of the body.  Dr. Pert has called them “bits of brain floating through the body.”  The brain “talks” to the immune cells all over the body, and in turn, the immune system cells communicate back to the brain, using the messengers called neuropeptides.  If your brain interprets physical perceptions as anger, fear, or depression, every immune cell of your body knows that interpretation very quickly! [End of quote]

🟊 The following excerpts are from the GodSaidManSaid feature “Light Series (Part 2: Words & Light):”

What does today’s science know about how light interacts in your body at the cellular level?  God is light and light is laden with the information of life.  The Bible says the eye is the light of the body.  Keep an ear on those words.  As the eye is exposed to info-laden light, the light passes through the retina and is picked up and processed by the eyes’ photoreceptors called rods and cones.  It is then funneled through the optic nerve to the brain where, guess what, the info-laden light is converted into words so that I can understand what the info-light actually said.  The intent of the words is passed on to every cell in the body.  The cells are then energized by the intent of the words and their laser systems light up and communicate with the other cells in what scientists call the language of light.  

The amazing interchangeability of words and light is a very serious focus in the Bible.  They are one and the same.  Amazing discoveries in the field of science are confirming the oneness—the interchangeability of light and words. 

New research that began in the 1990s and continues today has uncovered the astounding relationship between words, light (radiant information), frequencies, and DNA.  This research was led by Dr. Pjotr Garjajev. Consider the following information:

The most astonishing experiment performed by Garjajev''s group is the reprogramming of the DNA codon sequences using modulated laser light. From their discovered grammatical syntax of the DNA language, they were able to modulate coherent laser light and even radio waves and add semantics (meaning) to the carrier wave. In this way they were able to reprogram in vivo DNA in living organisms by using the correct resonant frequencies of DNA. The most impressive discovery made so far is that spoken language can be modulated to the carrier wave with the same reprogramming effect. Now this is a baffling and stunning scientific discovery! Our own DNA can simply be reprogrammed by human speech, supposing that the words are modulated on the correct carrier frequencies!

Whereas western science uses complicated biochemical processes to cut and paste DNA triplets in the DNA molecule, Russian scientists use modulated laser light to do exactly the same thing. The Russians have proven to be very successful in repairing damaged DNA material in vivo! [End of quote]

Biology has learned of light at the cellular level.  The Bible addresses internal light at the cellular level in Matthew 6:22-23:

22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

When the believer’s eye is fixed singularly on Jesus Christ, the singularity, the true light (John 1:9), the whole body is full of light. Words are converted into light in the body.  Each of our nearly 100 trillion cells is equipped with a very sophisticated light laser and they communicate cell-to-cell via light:

God gives to His children the amazing ability to harness the power of His creation words and to convert them into light in every cell of the body—in every one of nearly 100 trillion cells.

New medical analytics are presently being perfected to measure light emissions from the human body via body scans. Very sophisticated scanning cameras have been developed that scan the body for light emissions which are given off by all living creatures. When the scanning camera detects abnormally low light levels, it suggests sickness or disease. When the cells no longer emit light, they are dead.

The interaction of words and light at the cellular level is truly staggering. Science now knows that perfectly modulated coherent laser light can reprogram damaged cells—reprogramming damaged cells with the spoken language. Proverbs 18:21:

Death and life are in the power of the tongue...
[End of quotes]

Watch the interface of words and light in the following excerpts, including from an interview conducted by investigative reporter Pam Klebs, published in April 2005 by the health publication, Crusader. She was interviewing Jerry Brunetti, who is the managing director of Agri-Dynamics. The question to Brunetti was, “Can you explain how the immune system works?” Brunetti said:

Well, you have to have raw materials to feed the immune system and you have to have components that modulate the immune system. Apparently, what’s going on is that there’s a communication breakdown among the cells. Cells communicate in an electromagnetic realm or, rather, they emit photons (which are light particles). Environmental toxins can block the frequencies that the cells communicate with. In other words, light is being emitted at a particular wavelength. Other cells are able to take that light as language and know how to do what they need to do. It’s called photon repair. Scientists know it exists, they don’t understand how it works but they know that’s what happens at the DNA level.  [End of quote]

A photon is radiant energy—a unit of light intensity. Sixty-five to 100 trillion cells in your body communicate by emitting light—truly an internal life light.

Dr. Fritz-Albert Popp, a physicist from Munich, Germany, specializes in the study of biophotons, which are made up of electromagnetic waves. His laboratory is the largest of its kind in the world. The author Sanford Frumker in his book, Test and Grow Healthy, comments concerning Popp’s studies:

Photons are packages of energy, and bio means life. So biophotons are packages of the energy that carry the information of life.

Biophotons are made up of electromagnetic waves with a frequency range of 10 (to the fourteenth power) to 10 (to the sixteenth power) Hz (Hz = cycles per second) and they carry the information of life. All living things absorb photons of these frequencies. All living things also produce photons of this frequency. And when one cell of a living organism communicates with other cells, it does so by sending photons of this bioelectromagnetic frequency.

Popp further found that when any living organism died, the biophotons carrying bioelectromagnetic energy of 10 (to the fourteenth power) to 10 (to the sixteenth power) Hz immediately and completely left the body. When that energy was gone, life ceased.

He also found that photons were “coherent radiation,” meaning they radiated laser beams. They could thus work between all single systems of cells at the highest speed possible—the speed of light. What’s more, they had a higher “coherence,” or constituted a much more “refined technical system” than the lasers we can produce with our advanced technology. While industrial lasers emit only limited wavelengths, the biological system emits an infinite number of wavelengths! [End of quote]

It’s interesting to note that earlier, Brunetti said, “...light is being emitted at a particular wavelength. Other cells are able to take that light as language and know how to do what they need to do.” Imagine, the trillions of the body’s cells communicate in a language of light. Remember, the God of light spoke us into existence with words (language), and all light carries language (information). [End of quotes]

Words good and bad enter the human body, affecting the body at the cellular level.

🟊 The following information is from the GodSaidManSaid feature “The Seven Greatest Mysteries for a Man to Know (Part 3: The Mystery of Words):”

Everything is made out of words; therefore, everything is affected by words.  Watch words in regard to medical diagnoses:

Maybe one day we walk into our doctor’s office feeling more or less fine and walk out with the news we all dread.  Under such circumstances, people have been known to simply drop dead of a heart attack.  These reports are not mere folklore, but fact. 

In 2012, researchers in the United States, Iceland, and Sweden examined the health records of more than 6 million Swedes.  Swedes not only enjoy some of the world’s best health care, they also benefit from having some of the world’s most thorough care records.

The researchers found that the risk of death from heart attack and stroke soared immediately after a cancer diagnosis and was more than five times higher than in people without cancer.  The risk was greatest the week following a cancer diagnosis and decreased over time.  But even a year after diagnosis, it remained three times higher compared to those without cancer.  Moreover, the likelihood of a heart attack or stroke increased with the severity of the cancer diagnosis: the darker their future looked, the greater the risk of cardiac death.  [End of quote]

The power of death and life is in the tongue, in so many ways.

Dr. Caroline Leaf writes in her book, Switch on Your Brain:

Research shows that 75 to 98 percent of mental, physical, and behavioral illness comes from one’s thought life.  This staggering and eye-opening statistic means only 2 to 25 percent of mental and physical illnesses come from the environment and genes.

Every day scientists are discovering the precise pathways by which changes in human consciousness produce changes in our brains and bodies. [End of quotes]

Consider the marvels of the placebo and nocebo effect, which is strictly driven by words of intention:

Now consider psychosomatic disorders which plague 5 to 7% of the population.  This is entirely a WORD ISSUE, of course.  The Cleveland Clinic defines psychosomatic disorders:

Psychosomatic disorder is a psychological condition involving the occurrence of physical symptoms, usually lacking a medical explanation. People with this condition may have excessive thoughts, feelings or concerns about the symptoms — which affects their ability to function well.

People with psychosomatic disorder usually don’t report overt symptoms of psychiatric distress. Instead, they believe their problems are caused by medical conditions. They tend to visit healthcare providers frequently to get tests and treatments, often not receiving a diagnosis, which may lead to frustration and distress.

Psychosomatic disorder is sometimes called somatic symptom disorder, somatic symptoms or somatic pain. [End of quote]

Is God’s Word true?  The strange grouping of words that defines Him also defines us.  The world is experiencing a word/light dilemma and is coming apart at the seams.  It will only worsen.  The end is near, but the beauty for the blood-bought is that we speak a new language, complete with new functional, empowering, and eternal words.  The time of God’s final judgment is imminent.  Prepare for departure, saints, and we will leave rejoicing in the words of our God, and yes, Psalm 119:130:

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

Next week, God willing, the functional, life-transforming power of the spoken words of light.  Let’s harness the power of what we have learned.

GOD SAID, Genesis 1:3:

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

GOD SAID, Psalm 119:105:

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

GOD SAID, Matthew 6:22-23:

22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

MAN SAID: You wanna know what I would do if the world wide web went down? Wow! That would be a big problem!  What would I do if I couldn’t ask my phone?! The thought is terrifying!

Now you have THE RECORD.
