Scripture teaches that Adam was created as a three part being of 1. Spirit, 2. Body, 3. Soul. The day Adam and Eve ate of the "fruit", the image of God (which is spirit) "died" in mankind.
This is probably the main theme of the entire bible, regaining the lost spirit of God.

They may be so to you, but if you'll excuse me, I think I'll try to follow them..........blood-lord14 said:the commandments of god

what's his name threw them down to the ground
and your obsessed with a replica that the
government found.
they are worth nothing sense they ar destroyed
and truth isn't meant to exist BECAUSE

Only the Abrahamic traditions. A Desit, for example, would not. Many varieties of Hindu believe in only one God (who has aspects, much as the Christian trinity), and they don't have the 10 commandments either.The Ten Commandments are mentioned and taught in all three of the Holy Books (the Torah, the Bible, the Qur'an). They are the basis for all monotheistic religions in some way or another
Not in this country. The first 5 commandments are entirely absent, as are some of the latter 5.and they are the center of basic law.
I wonder if all that fighting means that the commandments don't actually work?If you exluded the First Commandment then any athiest would accept the other nine and if Jews, Christians, and Muslims all agree on it despite their constant fighting then I conclude that the Ten Commandments can only be truth.
Ironically that, in itself, is a philosophy.Also, philosophy is nothing but the ideas of man; compared to God man is nothing.

There is no way to explain how I came to arrive at this decision or even notice, expect through gods help. Basically The Commandments, I Ching, numerology and dimensions run in parrel, I have still to research what other beliefs do, yet I presume most are similar, as this makes logical sense to me. Let me start by going over the commandments.
1: You shall have no other gods before me.
2: "You shall not make an engraved image for yourself, nor any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: you shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them; for I, Yahweh, your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me; and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
3: "You shall not take the name of Yahweh your God in vain: for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
4: "Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Yahweh your God commanded you. You shall labor six days, and do all your work; but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God, in which you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and Yahweh your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm: therefore Yahweh your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
5: "Honor your father and your mother, as Yahweh your God commanded you; that your days may be long, and that it may go well with you, in the land which Yahweh your God gives you.
6: "You shall not murder.
6 "Neither shall you commit adultery.
7: "Neither shall you steal.
8: "Neither shall you give false testimony against your neighbor.
9: "Neither shall you covet your neighbor's wife;
10: neither shall you desire your neighbor's house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor's."
(Deuteronomy 5:7-21)
11: love one another through gods love as Christ did.
This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
(John 15:12-13)
12. Spread wisdom as Christ did.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
(Mark 16:15-18)
Now if you know the vision of Daniel concerning the ram and the goat this makes sense of the two horns, as Christ came out with two commandments.
Then lets have a look at the I Ching and how the numbers work in eastern culture. For those who do not know the I Ching is about 5000 years old
1. Oneness, I, The thing that everything is made of
2. Couple, complete number, an image
3. Solid object, the building blocks of life, logic
4. Time, movement, flow
5. Waiting, still, disorder, contemplation
6. Man, not enough
7. Heaven, yang
8. Earth, yin
9. Chaos, before completion, to much
If the I Ching were to continue and contain the extra as to match all the commandments it would be a like so theoretically
10. Completion, finished, life, simplicity
11. Love, compassion, peace, harmony
12. Wisdom, noble truth, unconditional love, completeness, humbleness
This would be in keeping with the logic of the I Ching adding an extra expression to the end of the rhythm the same as if you played jazz. It would then make the I Ching a movement of time as every image could have expression, ether hard or soft.
Now if you can see what I am getting at the Dimensions
1 = length
2 = width
3 = depth
4 = time
5 = Gravity
These are where we have got to with science. So what else is there out side the boundarys of all of these? Existence, so from both the commandments and the I Ching let me show you where I think the other dimensions sit. The same as we knew in the past yet the 13th dimension being god and ultimate wisdom not man.
6 = Matter, Physical.
EM waves (radioactivity ect.), light travel through space therefore they have to travel along some sort of existing quark
7 =Anti matter, non-physical.
For every action there has to be an equal reaction so therefore something must theoretically hold up matter or existence
8 = Infinity, unlimited time.
On four we only look at the existence from a now perspective. Yet existence is something larger then that and contained by time; as gravity produces time.
9 = chaos
What can we have out side time?
10 = everything exist on a whole, Zion
For the universe to exist as a whole it must be encompassed
11 = heaven, love
Love as many say adds a dimension to life. The universe works in symbiosis so what ever has created it, must love; we love; as does nature!
12 = wisdom
What ever has created us has immense logic and organization. From looking at what is created we can see it has ultimate logic
13 =god, everything, ultimate oneness, center of the universe

Not all the Bible is commands, infact almost all of it is a history.

Like you're in a position to be able to guarantee what Jesus would say. :biglaugh:PREACH THE NETT said:Look beyond those religions I guarantee you thats what Jesus and Muhhamad would tell you if they were around today.
