God’s Fingerprints are Everywhere

All throughout the Old Testament, there are ‘plays on words’ and puns in Hebrew, though not as evident in English.

It seems that the ancient Hebrews loved word play...........................

God communicates with us in so many ways.

1 Kings 19:11-12 King James Version (KJV)

11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake:

12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

“if the planets are expanding, wasn’t earth in venus’s orbit millions of years ago? And couldn’t mars have been in earth’s orbit millions of years ago?”

The space is expanding, not the planets. The arrangement of planets shouldn’t change as space expands, since the arrangement is dictated by the forces that bind the solar system together in equilibrium. That equilibrium remains the same unless the elements of the system change, or the laws of physics that govern it change.

If the universe is expanding, what is it expanding into?..................

So true. Here is an excellent video on the cell:

Are the planets expanding?
I haven’t heard that, but my answer would be the same- I don’t know.

I wonder if ‘earth’ would be ‘here’ if it wasn’t for everything up there.
you mention mars and venus, if those weren’t where they are, would earth, His footstool, be what we know of it today?

Is everything up there playing a role that allows ‘earth’ to be ‘earth’?

[Boogieman]

By definition, nothing, or at least nothing that science is in a position to comment on.

This is a good read.

All throughout the Old Testament, there are ‘plays on words’ and puns in Hebrew, though not as evident in English. It seems that the ancient Hebrews loved word play

No kidding! Even the first word is a visual pun, because "In the beginning" (בראשית) is followed by the word "created" (ברא). The second word *is* the first three letters of the first word (same order), so it makes a simple dumb statement:

"'In the beginning' (bet resh alef shin yud tav) is bet resh alef."

Well, yeah. ;)

Tells you right there that this God of Abraham (אברהם) is quite the character. The first three letters Abraham are those same three letters, alef bet resh.

In looking again at the letters in DNA, the letters spell out in full (by their names) as

[dalet (434) + yud (20)] + [alef (111) + nun (106)] + [alef (111) + yud (20) + yud (20)] = 822 = 411 x 2

And that's exactly what DNA is, information encoded on a double helix. The principle in the Bible WRT doubled information (and doubled verbs) is one of surety, validation.

[Yollopoliuhqui]

Who cares who made the Universe or if, in fact, it was made at all? The question is unanswerable with our current state of knowledge, it’s all speculation. The salient point is that THE UNIVERSE IS KNOWABLE and we are the agents of that knowledge, thus, as a matter of direct observation, not hubris, WE ARE GODS. If we are made “in his image”, we are gods. OK, some of us are too stupid to realize our birthright, to stupid to learn, but that’s a temporary statistic in the Age of Info. We are gods so we better damned well start acting like it and stop acting like knee jerk thoughtless idiots. If you are capable of putting new, unfiltered data in your head and integrating it into a you resynthesized moment to moment, welcome to Olympus.

quote-God’s Fingerprints are Everywhere

Ezekiel, have you seen where people were able to ‘see’ Aleph Mem Nun (Amen strongs Hebrew #543) above the ‘finger lakes’ of NY?

It seems above the finger lakes, on the Canadian side of Lake Ontario, there are inner channels that, from satellite imagery, show what could be described as Hebrew letters:
Aleph
Mem
Nun

or ‘amen’.

I think one of the finger lakes in NY even resembles an ‘ayin’, the 16th letter in the Hebrew alephbet..

[Kartographer]

God said to Moses, “I am who I am.[a] This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’”
Exodus 3:14

[Ezekiel]

I tried to see that but no luck.

I figure that with any imagery, there will always be multiple layers of meaning for validation.

On a map, for example, an apparent (previously undiscovered) shape/message might also appear as a place/business name on that same spot. Weird stuff that wouldn’t be due to human orchestration, so not like finger lakes being... fingers.

Satan thought he was a god also. He is headed to the Lake of Fire. Where are you heading?
