"when Jesus was entered into Capernaum" - Power of God against Diseases

 Tokyo Bay

Power of God against Diseases

It is apparent that Christ Jesus could heal any sick persons.  But what medical methods did He use?

He did not use any medicines but his own salvia and His hands to touch a sick man.  Then, the blind could get his sight, a lamed man could come to move normally, and a leaper and a sick woman were healed.  What's more, a crazy wild man haunted by a devil could be freed from the devil.

Physically and spiritually sick persons were healed by receiving super-natural healing power of Christ Jesus.

It is said that cancer cells die at the temperature of 42.5℃ or more and other disease germs die at about 100℃. Today, sterilization is also made by irradiating ultraviolet rays with the wavelength between 300 and 200 nm.  So, healing of a sick man may be possible only by using heat, ultraviolet rays, acids and alkalies, etc. without modern medical drugs.

Christ Jesus must have had the special ability even to physically extinguish causes of diseases by using those factors, because any incidents in this world must follow the law of nature.  But how Christ Jesus could exert His ability only with His body to achieve healing effect is a mystery.

Human bodies are made of chemical compounds, molecules and atoms.  And these substance can emit heat, electromagnetic rays, etc. and produce acids and alkalies.  So, if we could help our body cells work against diseases, we may cure ourselves.  But to acquire this ability, we have to have super structure in our bodies so that molecules and cells in our bodies can be properly controlled through our will and work of the minds.

In this context, Christ Jesus must have been born, even as a man, with special physical structure only God can give.  It should reflect the power of God against diseases.

To find the structure of the body that can work against diseases must be the ultimate aim of medical science.

"I have compassion on the multitude" - God is the Source of Existence

Around Tokyo

God is the Source of Existence

If you don't think that it is strange that you exist in this world, you cannot be fully thankful to God.

Any man is made of dusts of a star or the past sun that had existed before the present sun.  After this old sun was exploded, scattering various atoms, molecules, chemical compounds, gasses, debris, etc.,  the present sun started to be formed with remaining hydrogen gas, and the earth and other planets also started to be formed with remaining  atoms, molecules, chemical compounds, gasses, debris, etc.  And, when billions of years passed, human beings emerged on the earth.  It means that hearts and minds of the current mankind were made of materials left by the old sun.  And then, any man is originally nothing but part of the old sun.  Yet, you must feel that it is strange that part of the old sun constitutes you.  How could a tiny material part of the old sun become a human being that is you?  Or how did such a tiny material part of the old sun come to have the conscious that it is you?

Such a tiny material part may form cells, brain cells and a brain, but material cannot have the conscious if it constitutes a human brain.  Our conscious that we are ourselves must come from somewhere beyond this material universe.  Our brain cells must work as a kind of antennas, but where do the electromagnetic waves received by each antenna come from?  It must come from the spiritual world.  And the signal received by brain cells of each of us must give us the conscious that each of us is itself.  In this way, each of us comes to exist not simply as material but as spiritual existence or as a living thing with the conscious.

So, our existence depends on the spiritual world.  And the spiritual world is directly governed by God, since Christ Jesus said that God is Spirit.   

Our brain cells must be an interface between the material world and the spiritual world.

However, Christ Jesus said that if we had faith, the kingdom of God should come to us.  To have faith must mean to enrich this interface, and the kingdom of God means the increased strength with which this interface of ours is connected to the spiritual world.

So, all I can say is that what is worth being called to exist in each of us is the spirit since God is Spirit.

And, what exists owes its existence to God.   Because God is the source of existence of anything even in the spiritual world.

"Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation?" - The Subject is God

The Pacific Coast around Tokyo

The Subject is God

God might have been the first thing the mankind thought about when the species was established millions of years ago and the last thing the mankind will think about when the species is exterminated, say, thousands years later.

Early Christianity thought that none could see God while followers and Disciples of Christ Jesus actually saw Him.

Early Christians believed that the words of the Gospel of John 1:18: "No man has seen God at any time"...(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God#Christianity) 

However, Muslims look more modern or primitive in their attitudes to God.

Muslims believe that God (Allah) is beyond all comprehension and equal, and does not resemble any of his creations in any way. Thus, Muslims are not iconodules, are not expected to visualize God, and instead of having pictures of Allah in their mosques, typically have religious calligraphy written on the wall. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God#Christianity).

We must not misunderstand and think that we, human beings, are the masters and central players in this world and in our lives while God is a supporting player.

We have to correctly and piously believe that God is the master and central player while we, human beings, are subordinates to God even in life of each of us.

So, we have to admit, standig in awe, that what is important is happiness of God but not of ours in this world.

So, it is useless for us to seek our happiness in this world, since it does not conform to ultimate truth God set.

Indeed, Christ Jesus did not say to seek your own happiness with all of your might and wisdom but instructed us to love God with all of your might and wisdom.

The subject is God but not men.

Luk 7:30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
Luk 7:31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

"being baptized with the baptism of John" - Abraham, the Buddha, Confucius, Socrates, and Christ Jesus

Tokyo

Abraham, the Buddha, Confucius, Socrates, and Christ Jesus

Gotama Siddhattha (the Buddha) was born  in ancient India around 550 BC; Confucius was born in ancient China around 550 BC; and Socrates was born  in ancient Greek around 450 BC.

However around the 6th century BC, Hebrews were released from the Babylonian captivity and returned to Jerusalem; subsequently the creed of Judaism was fixed and the Second Temple was built in Jerusalem.

This era between the 6th century BC and the 5th century BC is critical for the mankind.  The spiritual conditions of the mankind that have extended to the 21st century were set in this era of about 2500 years ago.  Eventually God sent His son to Hebrews, although 500 years later after 2500 years ago.  God did not sent His son to ancient India, ancient China, or ancient Greek but to Hebrews.

However, it had been promised to Abraham by God 1500 years before that era of 2500 years ago:
“Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you” (Genesis 12:1). “I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed” (verses 2-3).

So, piousness of Abraham to God was appreciated more than work by the Buddha, Confucius, and Socrates.  Accordingly, God sent His son to the descendants of Abraham.  And along with deployment of Christianity, Judaism has been also continued and protected.

The Buddha represented self-enlightenment to conquer difficulty of human existence; Confucius represents ethical attitudes to show respect for ancestors; and Socrates represents honest attitudes of men before divinity.   Nonetheless, they could not change God's promise to Abraham.

Probably, Abraham did not think anything but God.  His life was simpler than the Buddha, Confucius, and Socrates.  Abraham must have nothing to worry about and think about except God.

It is not known whether Abraham saw the Great Pyramids in Giza, but His concentration to God did not change or was not averted.  This attitude became part of traditions of the Hebrew people, which must have rejoiced God. 

In other words, the mankind is expected by God to concentrate on God rather than trying to achieve enlightenment, complete ethical attitudes, or establish socially or ideologically righteous way of living. 

There are various types of foods.  But God might expect us to concentrate on our bodies rather than on any foods.  We may be allowed to take any foods while concentrating on our bodies that are more important than any foods.  And Christ Jesus also said not to mind what clothes we should put on, because our bodies are more important than clothes.

However, it seems that God never denies the Buddha, Confucius, and Socrates.  Indeed, there are many situations where their teachings are effective.  However, men have to confront the battle against Satan sooner or later.  And it seems that Abraham's concentration on God is the most effective for winning victory in this battle.

After great learning of the Buddha, Confucius, and Socrates, if men fail to win the battle against Satan, this learning is useless.  However, we may believe that God helps us in this battle only if we concentrate on God like Abraham.

" the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs" - All about God for the Mankind

Around Tokyo

All about God for the Mankind

One of the mysteries about God is why God created this universe and the mankind.

True religion of the mankind began when they found that God had created them.  Every living thing was borne by its parents.  So, it is natural that some members of the mankind thought that their most distant ancestor must have been God, but they must have also thought that there must have been no parents for God because they also thought that God was what existed always from the past to the future.

And, because it is natural to think God is all and omnipotent, no other elements are needed except God in the universe, the spiritual world, and even in Heaven, etc.  But God created the spiritual world, Heaven, the hell, this universe where the mankind lives, etc.  Without all these elements, God is complete and omnipotent.

But it looks that God is lonely, if He is the only entity that exists in the absolute space.

For example, all the numbers or integers are expressed with the concept and the only one term of  the whole number, but it can be extended to 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. to the infinite number.  And it is business of the ruler of the integers to choose to keep the status of the only term of the whole number or extend it to 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. to the infinite number.

So, it is clear that God had chosen to extend His omnipotent presence to creating the spiritual world, Heaven, the hell, and the universe where the mankind live.

Therefore, it seems appropriate to regard all the elements not as part of the nature of God but as part of His ability to extend His nature.  In other word, Satan, evil and so on cannot be parts of the nature of God but tiny elements that were created for necessity for exercising His omnipotent ability.

Anyway, the last thing the mankind should know is all about God.

"a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand" - Battle between God and Satan

Shinjuku Gyoen Park, Tokyo

Battle between God and Satan

Christ Jesus never kept dogs and cats, although He sometimes mentioned sheep.

Rather, He said not to give treasures to dogs and pearls to pigs as they were not thankful.  And He also said that no parents would give serpents to their children.

However, He also preached that God took care of birds in the sky and flowers in the fields, adding that men were more valuable than sparrows to be sold at a petty amount of money.

Indeed, the Bible read as follows: God loves one more than another or ones more than others.  Hence, God chose the Hebrews and Abraham, which should be the basics of faith and religion in the mankind.

This might be understood based on the notion that God always minds the battle against Satan.  Anybody, any creatures, any living things, and even any things that are apt to be easily subject to Satan's influence should be alienated.   

The most important thing for God should not be happiness of any man or any group of people but His victory over Satan.  It means that we have to sacrifice our happiness if necessary to defeat Satan by joining God.

However, the secret about this battle between God and Satan still remains for men.   

Anyway, the Gospels should be read from this point of view, in my view.

Mat 7:26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

"which built his house upon a rock" - Eternal Life before One Billion Years Later

Shibuya, Tokyo

Eternal Life before One Billion Years Later

One billion years later, it is expected that about 27% of the entire oceans will be subducted or sink into the mantle, and the solar luminosity will increase by 10% from the current level; hence, 1.1 billion years later, it is anticipated that the seawater will vanish from the earth.

On the other hand, about one billion years ago, a super-continent called Rodinia was formed as the the huge single continent on the earth, with multi-celled organisms emerging.

It is unthinkable that the mankind will survive for next one billion years, since the earth itself will be the uninhabitable planet.  The mankind will  have to leave the earth and move to another planet to continue its history and presence in the space.

As 2019 has come so surely, the year 20190 will come surely, and 201900 and 2019000 will come; and finally 1000000000 will come while the earth still circles around the sun.  But the mankind will never live on the earth, if they survive, in the year of 1000000000.

Then, what civilization will the mankind have at the time if it still exists?  The mankind as a species of living things must disappear.   Immortal robots must take over the mankind.  The civilization must be handed over to super-AI robots that never die or get old while they can travel through the Milky Way galaxy and other galaxies, taking even million years.  And, those robots will not be interested in the human history.  All the past incidents and history among the mankind will be lost and forgotten.

Then, will the robots try to find God or believe in God?

According to a theory, the whole universe will come to its end in 10 to the hundredth power years.  Even AI robots must be exterminated before that time.

So, eventually, everything disappears with the end of the universe.  

However, Christ Jesus said that whoever believed in Him would get eternal life.  So, the final question must be where Heaven is where men and women with eternal life are allowed to live by God?

"whatsoever ye would that men should do to you" - Why We Should Trust in God

Tokyo Bay

Why We Should Trust in God

The fist primate emerged 100 million to 70 million years ago in a form like a rat. The anthropoid primate emerged with the ability to rear up 40 million yeas ago. Then, the Hominoidea emerged 30 million years ago without tails.  Then, Hominidae evolved 17 million years ago, whose descendants still live today as chimpanzees, gorillas, etc.  And between 60 million and 50 million years ago, Homininae evolved with the ability of biped walking.  And finally, 2 million years ago, Homo habilis evolved as the first member of Hominini.

However, it was just 2000 years ago that God sent his Son, Christ Jesus, to the mankind.  And it had taken 2000 years from Abraham to Christ Jesus.

It means that there are many steps for God to exert His power on the mankind.  God did not create the mankind 100 million years ago in the world occupied by dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs had to be exterminated with a huge meteor 65 million years ago when the distant ancestors of the mankind were a kind of rats.   Then God waited for 63 million years till Homo habilis evolved.  And finally 4000 years ago, God chose Abraham who set the religious foundation for the coming of Christ Jesus 2000 years later.

That is why it is hard for us to see what we are, since it requires for us to grasp these series of evolution over 100 million years.

We can understand what we are only from a view point of God.  To understand a view point of God, we have to learn the words of God.  And, Christ Jesus said that the mankind were more valuable than sparrows God took care of.

As God took such long procedures, He would not abandon the mankind easily.  Otherwise, God should have put an end at any time in the path to the evolution to H. s. sapiens, namely the mankind. 
That is why we should trust in God.

"If a man shall say to his father or mother" - Stop Using Money, even Digital Money

Tokyo

Stop Using Money, even Digital Money

Why is the Bible of Christianity so real even today, after 2000 years since it was written?

Why are the Gospels so real even today 2000 years after they were written?

It is the theme of the Bible and the Gospels that made those books so real even today.  The theme of those holy books is the battle between the God and Satan.  And this battle has continued in these 2000 years; it is still fought today.  Therefore, these holy books are still real.

What symbols Satan was money even 2000 years ago, so that this battle is real as we still use money.

The battle between the God and Satan has been fought in the human world where Satan has tempted men to sell their souls to earn money.  This status has not been changed in these 2000 years.

So, when men stop using money, this battle might end, and the Gospels and the Bible might become obsolete.  As long as men use money, even if digital money, Satan can still continue the fight against the God. 

Regardless of their work and professions, men must receive what they need for their living.  They should get what is needed without using money.  And, for a man to live, he does not need much or such things as can be only purchased by big money.  In other words, men can live as poor men.

For example, money is not used in the kingdom of God and Heaven.  However, men in the hell must continue to try to get money as much as possible, trying to buy a right to enter Heaven, only in vain.

But when will the mankind stop using money, even digital money?

One of 600 Billion Each with 200 Billion Neuron Cells

According to a certain method of calculating the number of the mankind in the past , the population was about 3.5 million 100,000 years ago, about 40,000 a million years ago, and about 43 two million years ago.

Based on this method, the total number of people who have ever been born in these two million years is about 600 billion.

And only one of them is the Son of God.

Meanwhile, the number of neuron cells in the the cerebral cortex of the brain of a man is 14 billion.  But the number of neuron cells in the whole central nerve, including the cerebellum, is between 100 billion and 200 billion.

On the other hand, the mutational rate of genes in higher forms of life is said to be between 1/100,000 and 1/100,000,00.  However, it is said that there is no such mutation as would be helpful to subsistence of a living thing under natural conditions.

So it is thought that very rare or holy mutation occurred in neuron cells of Christ Jesus that did not cause damage or early death to Christ Jesus but gave him some holy work of his brain.

And, the mankind might still have a chance to generate a unique and holy man as a result of mutation because there have been so many of them.

"unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek" - The Holy Perfect Numbers

Tokyo

The Holy Perfect Numbers

There are only four of the so-called perfect numbers below 10,000:
6, 28, 496, and 8,128.

For example,
1 + 2 + 3 = 6, while the divisors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6.

As for 496, its divisors are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 31, 62, 124, and 248, and thus
1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 31 + 62 + 124 + 248 = 496.

However, these perfect numbers below 10,000 may be relevant to early Christianity.
Around A.D. 6, Christ Jesus was borne and registered in Roman Emperor-governed Palestine.

Around A.D. 28, Christ Jesus started His mission.

Around 496, the Christianity-converted  Western Roman Empires collapsed.

Around 8128, the kingdom of God might come to the earth, thanks to Christ Jesus, or the human history will be completed.

If God created and has been always watching the mankind and their world, the glory of God, namely the glory of Christ Jesus, must be reflected in the human history and science.  So, it must not be futile to  try to see any glimpse of God in science, mathematics, or the system of numbers.

I believe that God is pleased as we have found this implication of perfect numbers, although it might suggest that the mankind will be exterminated in the year of 8128 for some reason beyond our current imagination.

"But woe unto you that are rich!" - Complete Emptiness, Nothing, Zero but God

Tokyo

Complete Emptiness, Nothing, Zero but God

There is beginning in everything, according to human wisdom, although there might not be an end for anything as it can be endless or circulating.

So, what is the beginning of God?  As for Christ Jesus, it can be thought that His beginning was God or Father in Heaven.  But what is the beginning of God?  Or what was there before God?

As God is omnipresent and almighty, God is the only and one source of everything including its feature of being existent or in existence.  So before God, there is nothing existent or in existence.

It means this status of nothing is superior to God.  However, according to human wisdom, nothing can be superior to God.  So, the status of being nothing before God is part of features of God.  God means to include both the status of being existent and not being existent or being God and not being God.  God can be both being anything and not being anything.  God is the status both after appearance of God and before appearance of God Himself.  It means God is "Yes" and "No," which is however not allowed for men as Christ Jesus said.

It means that it is useless for a man to think of what existed and how it was before appearance of God, since men are not given the ability to understand the answer, if any. 

If there are no numbers or integers, the status might be expressed with zero.  But this zero should include all the numbers or integers toward the infinite, because there cannot be other sources than zero that can generate anything since there is nothing than this zero.  Or the boundary of this zero must be the infinite.

In other words, before God, there must have been God as something that was precedent to God, because God is the only one that rules everything including Himself, nothing, zero, and even what is not part of God or does not belong to God.

In the world of nothing (meaning that nothing exists) or zero, which is also God,  God decided to exist, so that everything that later became existential in the space came to owe its existence to God.  If God suddenly changed His mind and stopped being existent, everything in our world would disappear and be lost to go back to nothing and zero.  It must be God's love that He does not suddenly change His mind to stop being existent.  In this context, this universe was created by love of God.

But what is God who had, say, existed even before nothing and zero, which came to be the source of everything and all the numbers, or even before Himself? 

Are we simply prisoners of the world of God or mad like a brainwashed man, even if there might not be God around there or anywhere?

Complete emptiness, however, cannot be stable or enough to contain God, if God wants to exist.

"treasures in heaven" - Even a Dollar in This World

Around Tokyo

Even a Dollar in This World

If you are rich and happy in this world, you will be poor and suffer in the hell.  But if you are poor and unhappy in this world, you will be rich and happy in Heaven.

This teaching of Christ Jesus implies that the total of wealth and happiness is constant all through this world and anther world consisting of Heaven and the hell.  The more you get in this world, the less you get in another world.

If poor and unhappy men believe in Christ Jesus, they should be  consoled very much.  But rich and happy men would not believe in Christ Jesus, because they are too busy enjoying their rich lives.

To understand depth of the meaning of this teaching requires love to the poor and unhappy.  Without love to them, you cannot accept this teaching.  And if you cannot accept the teaching, you cannot understand the meaning.

From the beginning, God created everyone with the same love to him or her.  God must prepare a mechanism to solve any problems arising from iniquity and the gap between the rich and the poor.  All we have to do is believe love of God to love, goodness and justice.

Otherwise, Satan might capture minds and heats of everyone and make him or her its slave by use of power of money.

In other words, to live with one million dollars in this world or to live with one million dollars in another world.  The former leads to the hell while the latter leads to Heaven.

It is because you cannot earn even a dollar in this world without sacrificing others and betraying God.

"his disciples went down unto the sea" - God in the Brain or the Brain from God

Around Tokyo

God in the Brain or the Brain from God

It is said that there is a special location in the human brain where a man can see a god.

The location called the temporal lobe in the brain judges the space around him by synthesizing information input from the eyes and ears  as well as senses of touch.  But it was found that when a man starts praying, information coming to the temporal lobe is restricted and prevented.  Then, during praying, the man starts to feel space different from ordinary space.  Consequently, some people may see a god in this state.

Therefore, some scientists think that a god is something that is created in the human brain.  But some person of religion thinks that God gave the function to see God in the human brain.

It is said that there are 100 billion or 200 billion nerve cells (neurons) in central nerves of a human brain.  It is natural that that there are few singular cells.  And the number of connections of neurons or synapses is said to be 150 trillion.  It is natural that there are several singular cell connections.

If God had created the mankind, there must be a possibility that He put some special mechanism in the human brain with which each man can contact with God if he or she wishes.  So, part of the mission of medical doctors should to find such a mechanism.  However, that a man can feel God by such a mechanism does not mean that God is created by the man; rather it should be thought that God gave such a mechanism to the mankind as a gift for promoting intimacy between the mankind and God.

Yet, it is dangerous to try to activate such a mechanism by use of drugs, chemicals, or such things.  It should be activated in a reasonable situation.

For example, when a man is dying, such a mechanism may be naturally activated to make the man prepared for the afterlife or the spiritual universe.  So,  near-death experiences can be explained from this point of view.

Anyway, it needs a more high-performance computer than existent ones to understand functions of all the 200 billion nerve cells and 150 trillion connections among them.

Nonetheless, there must come a day in the future that a super AI computer presents an image of God before the mankind, if it is not achieved in the 21st century.

"and gave them power over unclean spirits" - God, Goodness, Evil, and Satan

Tokyo Bay

God, Goodness, Evil, and  Satan

There is an enigma about God and goodness.

God loves goodness and hates evil.  Then God could send good spirit to the mind of every human being.   If so, everyone should be born with the mind loving goodness and justice.  In this case, there is no evil in the human world.

However, some people are born with spirit loving goodness but others are born with spirit loving less and less goodness.  As a result, there is full evil in this world.

Yet, God is almighty.  He is the lord even in the spiritual world.  God can send good spirit to everyone.  But it is said that spirit freely comes down to human beings.  It means that there is no control by God on what spirit is given to a human being.

Therefore, it can be understood that God praised Jesus when Jesus came to the River Jordan, as if God had been surprised to see the spirit in Jesus.   It means that the spirit of the Son of the God came down to the mind of Jesus by chance.

It seems that God expected human beings to have ordinary spirit but come to believe in God and follow the words of God through experiences in his or her life in the world.  However, God set a mechanism where the spirit of the Son of God comes down to a human being by chance someday.

This uncertainty must, however, serve the intention of God related to creation of human beings.  Nonetheless, the timing of the appearance of the Son of God in the history seems not to be randomly decided.  Christ Jesus seems to have come to the human world at the right time, namely around A.D. 1.  And, God was pleased to see Jesus around the Jordan River, suggesting that God did not know beforehand when Christ Jesus came to this world.

Anyway, it is still an enigma that God did not set a rule that only good spirit comes down to human beings when each of them is born.  The answer must be that because God had already created Heaven where only souls with good spirit lived, He needed different situations in the human world, although He must have also created the hell where only souls with evil spirit lived.   Finally, this human world is not Heave.  Satan and devils are allowed to interfere with human beings in this world, although the human world is not intended by God to be the hell.

It might reflect the policy of God in dealing with Satan.  The relationship between God and the human beings might be secondary, but the relationship between God and Satan is primary.

However, Christ Jesus focused on human beings but not Satan.  We must first believe in Christ Jesus, since God is too great for human beings.

Mar 6:6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
