I’m a Christian who loves science. I embrace science with all the lay potential my mind can muster. And that’s ok with me because if I was a genius, I would seriously go insane – especially in the realm of Quantum Physics. In my mind, the theory of evolution is dead – not because of my faith, but because of the pathetic “science” it speaks about. With the introduction of molecular biology and information sciences, the theory of evolution looks like yesterdays science – much like the “flat earth theory.”

One area I am freaked out about is dimensions. A Rabbi by the name of Nachmonides read the first verse of the Bible where it says..

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

..and concluded that we live in 10 dimensions. What a freak! This guy lived 700 years ago and it took mankind that long to catch up with his thinking.

Height, width and length are obvious dimensions – it’s what gives us 3D. Time is the 4th dimension. Time has been described as a physical dimension. Our 5 senses makes us sensitive to these 4 dimensions.

Now Quantum Physics is saying that we exist on at least 10 dimensions. Four of which we are aware of, and 6 we have no clue about as our senses and mind have no capacity to fathom this. I can almost see Nachmonides rolling in his grave! These 6 other dimensions are said to be “curled beyond the Planck length” – geek talk for we don’t understand this stuff.

A very good explanation can be found in the following two video’s..

I get a little confused once we pass the 5th or 6th dimensions as it’s pretty mind boggling stuff. But in essence, what these videos are alluding to are realities far greater than what we can imagine. Just like the flatlanders in the 2D world where the 3rd dimension makes no sense, the higher dimensions for us are a place where things get a little “blurry” to say the least.

Jesus In His Resurrected Body

As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!” But they were startled and frightened and thought they saw a spirit. And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. And while they still disbelieved for joy and were marveling, he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate before them. Mark 24: 36-44

In a locked room – a 3 dimensional concealed space, Jesus appears out of the blue. The disciples freak and think they have seen a ghost. Jesus says, “hey stop freaking out. I’m not a ghost. Touch my hand – I’m real. Give me something to eat!”

Mathematicians have concluded that for Jesus to have appeared in a physical state in a sealed 3 dimensional room, that He would have to be physically present on at least 11 dimensions.

Now stop and think about this for a second. Now we are physically present in 3 dimensions and are aware of the 4th dimension – time. Dimensions beyond that are a little crazy for us to understand. And yet these science geeks have worked out that Jesus was physically present on at least 11 dimensions!

This freaks me out in the most amazing way because here Jesus is in His glorified body – one that we will all have one day. Could it be that a glorified body is to live in a dimension 6-7 times higher than that we are now? Oh the mind boggles. To throw more into the mix is to ask this question…

Before the fall, did Adam have the same glorified body that Jesus had after His resurrection? Is this what it means that we all fall short of the glory of God? Is this the mindset we need to interpret the following scripture.

But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.

Was Adam physically alive in at least 11 dimensions and therefore gave him the ability to walk with God? When sin entered, Adam realised he was naked and hid himself. He was now reduced to 3-4 dimensions and this results in death? And is the work of Jesus the path to restore mankind to the pre-fall reality? You be the judge.

I will stop here although there is heaps more to write about. The video’s above talked about string theory and how this theory ties in everything. Will this be the reality of what Psalm 2 talks about – that man declares war against God. Focus on the words in verse 3.
