God’s Everlasting Masterpiece…
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. ~ Genesis 1:26
We are currently living in a time of immense change for our world and our human culture, and I in no way mean to intend that statement to be full of hyperbole. Technological changes that are taking place right now as we breathe and watch from our homes will be more vitally important to humanity than the entire industrial revolution, the development of space travel, the emergence of cell phone technology, or even the introduction of the Internet itself, all combined. Each one of those revolutions brought momentous change to humanity. But what is in store for us in the immediate future is much more dynamic and advantageous to every human (and animal) being on this planet. Just consider the following that are emerging as you read this:
● Additive Engineering (aka 3-D Printing)
Elon Musk is currently using additive engineering to print the most powerful rocket engines in history reliably, and at an affordable price. And we all know of his major advances in electric cars that make Detroit’s sick attempts seem nothing more than pitiful. All of this he did with the help of 3D printing. This technology uses a modified printer (like those we are all familiar with) to actually deposit materials a layer at a time and thus build things that cannot be otherwise built or would be far too expensive to build.
● Space Elevator and Cheap Space Travel
What if you no longer had to use a billion dollar rocket like the space shuttle to get you or your product into orbit? That is exactly what will happen in the next few years. But how do you get past rockets? You build an elevator to space. And this is made possible by a development of something called “carbon nano-tubes”. This amazingly strong material development will soon make it possible for us to drop a cable from the heavens all the way down to the surface of Earth. We will then attach an elevator car to the cable and ride it into orbit together with supplies, building materials and anything else we need in orbit.
● Fusion Energy
Ever caught yourself wishing there wasn’t an Ayatolla, or a Russian Dictator named Putin in the news? Well, what is currently backing these tyrants is the massive amount of money created by native oil wealth in their countries. Oil, it seems, camouflages the evil of totalitarian dictatorships by supplying residents of a country that only knows how to suck liquids out of its earthly abode and ship it to others. What happens when that oil is worth exactly ZERO?
Fusion Energy is on the verge of supplying every man woman and child on this planet with as much energy as they can ask for at a tiny fraction of the price the tyrants charge. How many of us will grieve their passing? Not I. As you may know fusion is the process of squeezing two atoms together to create great amounts of power (similar to the Fusion Bomb but under much better control). That technology is at hand and fusion companies are popping up all over the world to usher it into the marketplace.
● Cold Fusion Energy
Another remarkable energy development is called Cold Fusion. Once ridiculed by main-stream science as a fake science, recent developments at MIT and hundreds of other tech giants are proving that it does exist and you can actually get energy from plain sea water.
With cold fusion, look for your car to come with a device about the size of your car battery but it will supply ALL of the energy your car would ever need during a normal operating lifetime. This includes replacement of not just the battery but all gasoline or diesel fuel you would ever use. If it ever did actually run out you would just go to your dealer and have him replace the battery-sized device. This is coming – possibly within the next 5+years or so.
● Zero Point Energy
What holds the planets locked to each other? Gravity? Magnetism? How? What is the action that causes it? What if the vast spaces between atoms and even molecules in the universe was actually filled with energy? And what if you could access that virtually unlimited source of energy? Many physicists are now working on this phenomena to create energy out of nothing. They call this “Zero Point Energy” since it is energy that seemingly comes from nothing.
● Zero Point Gravity
The existence of zero point energy opens the door to the reworking of energy theory in physics and part of this is using one force or another to create or control gravity. To heck with Space Elevators, it sounds like way too much fun to drive your own vehicle directly into Earth orbit.

All of the above is simply a gentle reminder of how generous our God is in placing before us all the wonders of heaven and creation that is such a part and parcel of our maturing in Christ. Just imagine the mind of Christ when he accepted God’s challenge to leave the magnificence of heaven with all the knowledge it contains, and humble himself as a regular “human” to fulfill God’s Grand Plan for the whole of mankind! The ultimate and enduring remembrance of what his true purpose was in coming to earth, bending but never breaking, is the commitment he made to the Father of Lights to redeem the fallen state of God’s crowning glory, Mankind, made in the image of God!

● As for the political side of things
Just accept in the grand scheme of things, that God will put into the White House the one he will use, either to return our people to godly, family values and heal our country, or to continue the ungodly events fulfilling prophecy. Some of course, would declare that if God will decide the outcome beforehand then why should we vote? Simple answer. God expects us to judge and make decisions based on righteous judgment, using scripture and the teachings of Christ as our foundation. Thereby our voting decision becomes part of God’s gleaning process, those who choose to reject His word, and those who honor His command. He really is, even though he is also sovereign in his entire Universe, intricately involved in the minutiae of our everyday lives. After all, we ARE created in his image and nature, so why should we be surprised in his interest for our salvation?
God alone will have confirmation from each of us as to whether we are on the broad road that leads to destruction, or the narrow road that leads to eternity. Personally, I rest in peace, knowing God’s plan is perfect and he’s in control. In a way, it’s exciting to watch prophecy unfolding exactly as foretold. No surprises for those who know how the book ends!
As Paul expresses it so well from II Corinthians 12:1-6: It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities. For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
