Quantum Possibilities

Over the last century, Quantum Physics [QP] has really come into it's own. Mystics everywhere are jumping on the bandwagon, claiming a new theology or understanding of the cosmos.
What they don't realize is the Quantum Physics is merely the scientific explanation of the Word. For example, the unity of all things is a tenet of QP—the multiverse [multiple or parallel universes] another. Consider these scriptures:
'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was the life, and the life was the Light of men. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, gory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.' [John 1:1-5,14]
'He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.' [Colossians 1:17]
'For in Him we live, and move, and have our being...' [Acts 17:28]
'...and [He] upholds all things by the word of HIs power.' [Hebrews 1:3]
'For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been made complete...' [Colossians 2:9,10]
'...and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ.' [Ephesians 2:5,6]
'How blessed is the man whose strength is in You, in whose heart are the highways to Zion!' [Psalm 84:5]
"I am in the Father and the Father is in Me...If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him." [John 14:12,23]
"Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven..." [Matthew 6:10]
"For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst [or within you]." [Luke 17:21]
'But you have come to Mount Zion and the the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God, the Judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous mad perfect, and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks better than the blood of Abel.' [Hebrews 12:22-24]
'But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him.' [1 Corinthians 6:17]
Of course, there are hundreds of scriptures which talk about the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Heaven—the Jerusalem above. In the New Testament there are many that place us 'in Him' or 'through Him.' In previous posts, we've talked about the unseen realm—the well of Hagar, Isaac's ram, Elisha's army, the transfiguration, etc. Anywhere in the Word where the veil is peeled back for us to see the unseen—these all refer to the realm of the Spirit, or what QP refers to as a parallel universe.
These things are real, not because QP has just discovered them, but because they are the way God created the universe, and QP is just now finding out about them!
Quantum Promises
Understanding that we are one Spirit with the Lord, seated with Him in heavenly places and walking about on the earth, it is clear that we live multidimensionally. Of course, the world itself is in Him [and He is us, individually and collectively]—try to wrap your head around that!
Now it is easier to understand verses like'...all things belong to you, and you belong to Christ; and Christ belongs to God' [1 Corinthians 3:22,23] and "All things are possible to him who believes." [Mark 9:23; 10:27] These are quantum verses!
QP states that for each of us there are a multiplicity of universes—a universe where you're married, one where you're not, one where you have kids, one where you don't, etc. The theory is that these universes branch from each decision we make—all things are in mathematical and physical reality possible for us. However, most of us walk around blind to these realities, bound by limiting beliefs ["I can't..." or "That would never happen for me..." etc.]
But the Word says that all things—all paths or universes, if you will—are possible if you believe. If you believe what? If you believe they are possible! When Jesus said this, He was talking to a man who had come for help for his son. He was torn between believing that Jesus could help him and the natural, rational viewpoint—that nothing could be done. [If QP has done anything, it has freed us from the bonds of rationality! One physicist has stated that QP is akin to asking the marital status of the number 5...it isn't that the number 5 is married or not, but that the question makes no sense in any context!]
Jesus made it clear that the universe containing a healthy son was predicated on the father's belief! Think of how many times in the Gospels He said "Your faith has made you well..." When He told us to talk to mountains and trees in faith, He wasn't kidding! He was revealing quantum truths, showing how things really work.
The Tower of Babel
Let's look at the story of the tower of Babel. Men had come together in unity to do a seemingly impossible task—to the rational mind, even with today's technology, it seems an impossible task. But God said "Behold, they are one people, and they all have the same language [literally 'one lip' or 'one speech']. And this is what they began to do, and now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for [literally 'withheld from'] them..." [Genesis 11:6] Think about that!
These people were speaking and acting in unity. God, Who is the Author of QP, and founded the universe with it, knew that nothing would be impossible for [or withheld from] them. QP is, in effect, God's MO [modus operandi—how He works], and man, being made in His image, works just like Him!
What's It Have to Do With Me?
Good question. If it is true, scientifically, mathematically and spiritually, that in front of us lie endless paths creating endless universes [some say they are next to one another...yikes, my brain is bending] and if it is in our power to choose any one of the 'all things' then this has everything to do with everything.
Think about salvation...we choose redemption by believing in our hearts and saying with our mouths that God raised Jesus from the dead. [Romans 10:9] We choose our destiny in a moment!
God told Israel "See, I have set before you today life and prosperity [good], and death and adversity [evil]...I call heaven and earth [both planes of existence] to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse. So choose life in order that you may live, you and your descendants..." [Deuteronomy 30:15,19]
So, it would seem, the choices are ours. The power [hand] of life and death truly is in the tongue.
