If it doesn’t match, you must scratch, especially in quantum physics!

November 16, 2015Quantum worldDr. Robin Starbuck

Quantum mechanics betrays the world’s longest held secret – that the universe cannot anywhere near objectively determine its course nor can it ever be entirely free from extraneous measurement.

As wild and esoteric as quantum physics may seem to be, Newtonian (or, general) physics has it beat and has only to be held up to the same non-deterministic testing procedures.

The way that the world actually functions may need to be held to much greater scrutiny, especially in the quantum realm. When new findings are confirmed, it behooves physicists to reevaluate the entire foundation of both general and quantum physics relative to the new discovery until everything ‘matches’ again.

Is Light a Particle or a Wave?

November 13, 2015Quantum worldDr. Robin Starbuck

DON’T THINK FOR A MOMENT THAT LIGHT WILL LOSE ITS FASCINATION FOR MANKIND NOW THAT WE’VE CONQUERED ITS COYNESS – ITS FLIRTATIOUS NATURE OF BEING NOW HERE, NOW THERE, BUT NEVER PINPOINT-ABLE !!

We tried and tried: first a wiggly wave, then a tenacious dot! Such was the nature of our elusive beam of light, but now we’ve got it! Or, have we?

A photo may be worth a thousand words but we need several million words to interpret the still inexplicable.
■ Here’s the first photograph ever taken (by Fabrizio Carbone/EPFL) of light as simultaneously both a particle and a wave.

Context is the Key to Meaning

November 12, 2015EschatologyDr. Robin Starbuck

The non-descendants of the lineage of Abraham have received a fully tweaked, greatly improved gospel. It’s intended for everyone without exception, but didn’t make its appearance until Jesus had come back to earth, looking more like a piercing beam of light.

Saul – in spite of all his arrogant abuses on Christians – was the chosen vessel through whom we received Jesus’ Good News gospel. Jesus beheld ‘Paul’ where we limited mortals could only see a faltering and treacherous ‘Saul’. We soon learn to forgive him though as we imbibe more and infinitely more of Jesus’ priceless Gospel.

QUESTION: Did Paul not understand the “grace message?” What’s he saying here?
“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? [17] If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. [1 Corinthians 3:16-17 KJV]”

“Any man” refers to the Romans and Jews of the time, and not to the body of believers whom God protects. Furthermore, the church was facing an imminent tribulation – first from the Jews and then the Romans. We all know the upshot of that terrible period in time: Pompeii fell, and then Rome while the Jews were utterly destroyed in AD70.

When Holy Spirit speaks to you . . .

November 12, 2015Quantum worldDr. Robin Starbuck

WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES TO YOUR MIND, ARE YOU AWARE OF HIS “MOVING” (RACHAPH, greek) OR FLUTTERING, HOVERING, SHAKING ?
Genesis 1:2 KJV
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

The entire universe (one-song!) enjoys God’s maintaining and sustaining hold, even as it vibrates in a realm beyond what our limited flesh can conceive. How encouraging is that to our feeble attempts to grasp God’s everpresent willingness to guide and heal our lives!

What in the world is speaking in tongues?

November 9, 2015AllnessDr. Robin Starbuck

THE AMAZING POWER OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES.
What in the world is speaking in tongues? Wrong question! Speaking or praying in tongues is neither in nor of the world: it’s instant express to the realm of God. It’s how you cut through all the lollygagging of feeling, fearing and fretting and go directly to the heart of God. You don’t whine or beg – not because God wouldn’t allow it but because you’re already exactly where you craved to be, where every wish is already better than fulfilled.

So you commune with God in GOD’S LANGUAGE. “Tongues” is as old as the hills – or at least the 2,000 year old hills. Our good friend, the Apostle Paul, even lovingly boasted of being glad that he prayed in tongues more than the rest of us! When I was a kid I wondered about that guy: “How can any human being have so utterly transformed as to have nothing in his heart (any more) but to serve his Lord Jesus Christ?” It didn’t make any sense to me until I learned of something even weirder: glossolalia, or praying in tongues.

I learned, as Paul did, that I can have direct access to Jesus with no intermediary whatsoever and I have the distinct privilege of losing all warring feelings, yearnings and long-held beliefs that would dare to oppose my now omnipresent Christ consciousness. Sounds impossible? Try it. Ask God to guide you to speak in tongues right here, right now: WA KANE E RO PU IO LA SE YE I NA…. Now you go ahead and try. Just let God lead the way and eventually your mind will fill up with wonders and splendors that would be most difficult to represent in your native language. That’s God talking to you about what the real world (heaven) is all about. He never tires of telling you all about it.

Praying in tongues turns everything over to the Holy Spirit. He sorts it all out, fills in whatever is missing, deletes whatever is irrelevant and returns to us our whole new man.

Jumpstarting a communication with God

If you have any doubt as to whether or not you’re hearing the Holy Spirit, you’re probably not. But all you need to do is JUST LISTEN … right now … and watch the doubt fade away!

I’m going to go out on a limb for you – because I love you and I’d like to help you jumpstart this communication that you crave. It’s critical that you bear in mind that it’s not God who needs to be jumpstarted: it’s you (or, rather, your receptivity). Sometimes we can get very, very quiet and ready to listen intently – and then we don’t hear anything.

Now, of course you know, we’re not talking about an audible voice but an undeniable communication from Him to you in your spirit. Let’s get back to that jumpstarting thing: What does He call you? Yes, that’s right, how does He address you? By your first name? He usually does so with me although He has some wonderful affectionate terms that He sometimes uses.

Anyway, try this. Imagine this is God speaking to you in your spirit. He says, [imagine it] “Robin, I have something to tell you …….” You’d be amazed at how easy it will be for you to continue the sentence!

Do I hear you protesting that it isn’t God that’s speaking, but yourself? Nope, you’re wrong! First of all how far apart are you? He lives on the inside of you! Secondly, your imagination is a powerful tool that the Holy Spirit (God) uses to communicate with you. And, thirdly, you’re only using it to jumpstart your own receptivity, right?

When you get that communication fully under way with God, you’re bound to become nearly overcome – with joy! (I thought I’d better warn you, ‘cuz Daddy [Abba, Father, God] can get very chatty! He loves to tell you in great detail just how much He loves you. When He gets done telling you how much you mean to Him, you’ll realize that all those astronomical problems that you had before have become very, very insignificant. Don’t be surprised if they become healed – every one of them!

So, remember, when doubt slips in, you just jumpstart it out!

Yes, you can jumpstart a communication with God!

Eternal life now!

As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. [3] And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

WE HAVE BOLDNESS TO ENTER INTO THE HOLY OF HOLIES THROUGH JESUS !!
Hebrews 10:22 KJV
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

For maximum boldness, you must never lose your focus on God – never !!!

How are you? – A perfect response!

HOW ARE YOU ?

A BELIEVER WILL SAY “ME TOO” WHILE THE PERSON WHO IS ABOUT TO RECEIVE YOUR GIFT OF GOSPEL INTRODUCTION WILL SAY “WHAAAT YOU TALKIN’ ‘BOUT?” . BOOM !!

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Ephesians 1:3 KJV

Arguing deductively

EVEN IN THE PURE REALM OF MATHEMATICS, WE NEED TO CLING STEADFASTLY TO THE KNOWN or, at least the given.

EMPLOYING DEDUCTIVE THEORY, LET’S TRY
A BRAND NEW WAY TO ARGUE !!
How many of these are correct?
2 × 2 = 5, … 6 ÷ 2 = 3, … 7 – 1 = 5,
… 6 + 7 = 14 … 909 × 1 = 909 …

Did you entertain any of these thoughts?
● 2×2 is almost 5, doesn’t that count for anything?
● 6÷2 is not 3 if you’re using a different base.
● 7-1 is stupid because it’s so obvious.
● 6+7=14 may be getting better because it’s almost correct.
● 909×1=909 is probably wrong somehow…

DID YOU STRUGGLE WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE NONSENSICAL ARGUMENTS ?

NO !!! . OF COURSE NOT !!!

Why not?

THEY’RE LUDICROUS !!!!

And _________ ?

AND THE TRUTH IS SO BLATANTLY OBVIOUS THAT I DIDN’T NEED TO GO DOWN THAT RABBIT HOLE !!!!

The Scriptures and the Hand of God

October 30, 2015Application of Scriptures, EschatologyDr. Robin Starbuck

WHY DOES MANKIND INSIST – THOUSANDS OF YEARS AFTER THE FACT – that the Scriptures are written for and about us? Like Jonah in the sea mammal’s belly thought about how elucidating it would be for Robin if he drove home the point that he should have gone directly to Nineveh!

Maybe, just maybe, our superheroes of yesteryear were more interested in their mere survival than in relating a miraculous account of God’s hand reaching through the parchment to shake a finger at us.

Surely, we can become inspired and edified by reading all about people’s journeys God-ward but we mustn’t add our own flavor and drama of idolatry. We choose books to read and TV programs to watch that resonate with us: they go inside and tickle our ears from within. And we have the audacity to judge their veracity solely based on our innermosts.
