CHAPTER 15

 

HAVE A HEART!

BE SURE IT IS ENGENDERED BY THE LORD:

LET GOD UNITE IT TO TRUTH

"Keep Your heart with all Diligence, 
for out of it are the Issues of Life,"
Proverbs 4:23.

When men become butchers, but of others, and hatred wells up like an explosive gas surge, there is a reason. When truth finds the heart, this too, it has a reason.

It is time to ponder the ways of the Lord, as these latter insurgencies into the heart of man, seek to terrorise the unstable,  acting to cause tyranny over man and upset the nations.

These are not the first terrorists. The Inquisition distorted Christianity in its own way for centuries of torture, the Communists acted as if to make of man a kind of economic unit through slave driving of the soul, in godless executions of millions. It was the people and not the plan that it executed. Deception and false masteries can readily take over the unprotected soul of man, as in insurgent jihads, by which many of one religion act to oppress or obliterate rather than persuade, others who find no truth in it, none at all. Indeed, a new christ, created some 6 centuries after the true, stripped down, was a distortion unyielding in its ungoverned desolation of His image (cf. Red Alert Ch. 16, Tender Times for Timely Truth Ch. 8,  * 1). That was a task carried on later by various sects, with much in common both with this and with other.

They all want Him; but some wish to remake Him, a compliment miscarried! In the case of Islam, there has been made more than a cartoon of Christ Jesus, for while keeping His name, in this religion, in His place there has been put someone else altogether, providing neither warrant nor explanation from history, the ultimate in replacements. But why such things as these various bodies have presented ?

Let us then consider the human heart.

 

I  THE HEART IS ONE, BUT MANY ARE ITS ACTIVITIES.

Is the function of the heart just a matter of thoughts ? The Bible in Daniel speaks of "visions of the head" (Daniel 7:1,13), and in the latter, his "thoughts troubled him." In Jeremiah we find vision of the heart (23:16,26), and of the "deceits of their own hearts." Francis Schaeffer, that noted author, in his True Spirituality speaks of the thoughts of the heart as if these were its very character; but this is but part, just as skin is but part of the body. Much lies underneath.

Thoughts are the articulation of perception, conception, but the heart is like a beach.  It has in it many waves and bays, and it may be approached by much in many ways, as may tankers by pirates, in the seas. Thrusts come from various sources and in multiplied modes, to  drive it like an engine, to still or sack its quieter thoughts, to inject, affect, infect it. Similarly thrusts of will from an internal source may seek to make it succumb to nonsense, however piously their impiety may be presented.  Such is the lot of many jihadists, suddenly arrested in heart but not by truth, as has been the case of many Nazis, Communists and others who have loved to make insurgencies to move not only this or that heart, but the very heart of civilisation. It is as if this is to its lair!

The world-wide flood, so  devastatingly attested, was the result of one such civic contortion, which got its come-uppance, Another and greater one has been foretold by Christ, as man becomes incapable in the end, of managing his own distorted planet, where indeed it is his own sin which is the evil agent, mixed with the due judgments of God.

There is a better way. As in Daniel 10:1, we find this: "he understood the message and had understanding of the vision." Indeed, the angelic messenger comes to "make you understand" (10:14). It is not a matter of rejection of reason, but receipt of revelation beyond it, testable indeed, but sourced from God. It was as it is in Proverbs 1:22-23.

"How long will you love simplicity and scorners delight  in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge,"

for as Paul declares, all things must be tested (I Thessalonians 5).

        "Turn at My reproof,"
the Lord continues.

Behold, I will pour out My Spirit to you, I will make known My words to you."

HE undertakes not only to provide truth and wisdom, but so to teach it that it is UNDERSTOOD. God does not cut corners.  Understanding is one of the chief functions of the heart, often short-circuited and shunted out by desires of various kinds. However, though few percentage-wise belong to Jesus Christ (un-remanufactured), many are those who from God gain understanding. Thus in Luke 2:19, we find that Mary kept "all these things" concerning her Son, Jesus Christ, and pondered them in her heart. Impressions, words, testimonies of voices, of the senses, of understanding, signals, assertions, predictions, like many meats in a cauldron cooking, such things may be stored; but it all had a very distinctive flavour, summed up by the words of God to her, as to His prophets before and afterwards.

The heart, then, is often used as the active centrepiece of the spirit of a person, where  impacts from good or evil  visions, forces, dynamics, ideas, thoughts, passions, inclinations and preferences and desires may meet like great whirlpools, amid ununified turbulences, would-be dominating  take-overs, or even obsessions; or at the opposite, all may yield to demonstrable truth in the very presence of God. Such battles in those unmoored, unsited, unplaced, brought up in darkness may indeed make warriors for time in the external world, dictated to within, dictating outside, as if it were a relief to  decapitate or bomb infants.

This world is facing the unsublime follies of many years of Gospel spread, now wilfully cancelled in much so that random and rampant forces can announce the  departure, as when the glory of the Lord departed from the temple in the days of Ezekiel 10-11. Australia now seems hardly to know where it is going, incited by many to ignore our God, our design, our morals, and to  see how  "lucky" we are when we do it, like abandoned youngsters, stirred to fling stones at  stained glass windows. But Christianity is not founded on  glass but on blood, shed to  cover those who do prefer to shed that of others, and ignore reality, the love and the truth of God. All this is as foretold in Matthew 24, and is not surprising, but follows on  from its bombed ground-works!

 

II WITHOUT GOD'S LIGHT HOW GREAT IS THE DARKNESS

How great are the gifts  given to man, and what a delight that there is no need for the light that is within you to be a form of darkness, of wilful obliteration of truth, in the name of all that exalting itself, and making its own gods, is yet to  face its own execution day as in Ezekiel 28:9. Will you still say you are god when I kill you ? God asks.  If one departs from the spiritual scene of towering waves ready to sweep away all reason, evidence with the inclination of the scimitar, or sickle or hammer or inquisitorial torture chamber, then freely you may come instead where truth needs no help for its testimony, its confirmation, and force is forbidden in its propagation (John 18:36, Matthew 26:52-54).

You don't need a front-end loader where a spade suffices and the path is clear. Descent  to that level of  mere force in the interests and realm of some  'faith' to be found by man, is admission of failure.  He is not build to be a slave to force but in the image of God.

For the maladjusted, this or that fruity substitute for the singularity of God may pound in passion, or  abound in hate or malice or lust for dominion over others, to tax them, vex them, impale them, subjugate them; but there is a better way. Christ speaks of having "your whole body full of light," so that there is no part dark. Again, said He, if the light which is in you be darkness, how great is that darkness! Perversion applied not only in matters sexual but  spiritual! That is the biblical declaration and in man it finds its mark (I Timothy 1, Matthew 12:45).

When the truth, mercy and love of God, translated into the sacrificial death of Christ is received by the saved sinner, then there is room for His power, perspective, truth and love in ALL parts of the heart. Yet none is available for the dizzy dynamics of evil, which knows no bounds and in this present world, rejoices in its sheer abundance of blazing madness, as if it were a virtue.

Indeed, Christ declared, in Matthew 15:19:

"Out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders,  adulteries, fornications, thefts,
false witness, blasphemies."

It is rather a notorious source! Small  wonder we read in Proverbs 28:26,

"He who trusts in his own heart is a fool."

 

THE LIGHT OF THE HEART

A multi-faceted jewel is the heart of man, but it may either discolour, or else, purged by God,  transmit light, a creative  light, that not only reveals, but orders  things in clear perspective of love and truth. All this is from the self-definition of God in Jesus Christ; for as in I John 4:7-10, Hebrews 1, He is the brightness of the glory of God, who is love:  and the marvel is not that we loved Him, but that He loved us (cf. Romans 5). Understanding in vision, perspective, wonder, of one's place, knowing one's God who is our Maker, who freely released His redemption, that we might receive it with relish:  these are true and necessary functions of the heart of man. It is then, when subject to the word of God, that his inner thoughts can read like a book, light suffusing (Luke 11:34-36), and his ways grow more like a translation, however imperfect.

You don't need the power to suppress, violate, be vile, abandon all human grace, assert yourself like a jumping flea, and worship the nearest god or power you can think of. Man needs grace, to understand, goodness, to develop what is fine and splendid in construction, aim and capacity, discernment to avoid the pit of corruption and the power of evil, mercifulness to bring life to the afflicted, brotherly love to sustain and be sustained in goodwill; but when he departs his source, his source departs from him also, and indeed he first needs to find Him! as in Isaiah 55,

"Seek the Lord while He MAY be found and call on Him WHILE He is near,"

for

"He will not  always strive with man" (Isaiah 58:15-18).

But near is He to be sought and found, where He IS, where  appointed, and only there is a person not disappointed, for God has given staggering witness to His sacrificial Son, Jesus Christ, death's conqueror and the light of the world.

 Therefore hide God's word in your heart, appreciate the Bible in its unique sovereign word which is always fulfilled, and be filled with the light of the Lord, that shines as sunlight on a battle field of blood, His shed in giving His own life a ransom for sinners who receive it (Matthew 20:28, John 1:1-14). As the Psalmist in 86:11 cries with understanding to the Lord, "Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth. Unite my heart to fear Your name." What blessed union is this, of the heart, for now it has found its counterpart and Creator, its Redeemer and light, its foundation and regeneration at the hand of God. If however the heart decline it, then for that heart it is as useless as torchlight outside, at noon in Summer. Indeed, where eyes are shut, nothing is to be seen (Matthew 13:15).

 

The capacity to be free is grand. Resting on  Christ,  the restorative ground of truth, is better. Like medicine for the sick, it works. Indeed, without that medicine, the sickness assaults not only the soul but society! Well it may, for we are not made to be automatons, but having sinned, to be redeemed, redirected, corrected, regenerated and given understanding that we MIGHT live! (cf. Ezekiel 33:11, Titus 2-3).

Without the Lord of creation and salvation, what is it like ? It is like those who fly, and cannot see in the mists amid the peaks, and are ready to crash where knowledge might have saved them, and redirection released them. No wonder Christ declared, even in His own day,

"I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day.
The night is coming when no man can work,"
John 9:4.

 

Illustrative Appendix

When the Heart Strikes Oil, and Gushes Gas

Let us pursue a much discussed topic of modern times, where the heart often leaves the heat on in the oven of thought, till only cinders remain. It shows the principle of turgidity instead of truth, in the lost hearts, or those intoxicated by them, so that reason may look on these diffuse dealings, repelled as one might have been, soon after Hiroshima. It is not just the wreckage, but the reason for it.

There are laws of life, and matter. Three have often been mentioned - as in TMR Ch. 1, where the matter is explored; but the names of these major and principial laws, foundational, are the Law of Conservation of Matter and Energy, the Second Law of Thermodynamics and the Law of Biogenesis.

The first takes matter and energy as given. The above Chapter has the following here to the point.

·  The simple fact is this: The LAW of CONSERVATION OF MASS AND ENERGY is exactly in accord with the scientific hypothesis of creation. SO TOO is the LAW OF BIOGENESIS; and so thirdly is the LAW (2nd) of THERMODYNAMICS.

·  Of these: ONE states how life is uniquely and exclusively observed at this time, to come FROM life; another states the situation concerning matter, and its stasis - there is a competency, it is what it is, is not increasing (the view that it was doing so, was thrown out, after some trial by Sir Fred Hoyle of Cambridge University for example); and the third notes the trend to downgrading of what is already built.

·  Thus it is THERE, without disclosing from WITHIN ITSELF, or any components, collection of components or criteria, HOW it got here. It decreases its specialised specificities, as is normal with our own designs exposed to general conditions which impact on them; and life in particular is derivative from LIFE. This of course is precisely what the Bible said: The things that are seen are not derived from what is visible (Hebrews 1:1-3); their trend is to wear out (Isaiah 51:6), and life was achieved in a specific, distinct creative act, also NOT from within the interstices, powers and properties of other material things.

Now in the new work, Evolution's Achilles Heel, it is with great labour shown that the laws of chemistry do not include the formation of information. Nor do those of physics. These concern other matters, not the inbuilt and observable, the open to the alert production of directions. There are laws concerning structure possibilities, but these are as different from information which would lead to the multiply, integrally unified laws operative in multiple, mini-machines, which enable copying of given information, or the derivation of precise code meaning, or power to receive the same, let alone on the massive scale involved in the simplest form of life, which categorically are as far from simple, as are multiply-methodically-machinated-machinery such as cars. The example is not particularly good, however, as cars are quite simple to make compared with the wall upon wall of wit, wisdom and coherence, cohesion and integration, intricacy and multi-usage of command-information elements, which make life more than a dream.

Thus every time there is a reference to making the machines which are continually operative, mini-machines, to construct elements of life, and construe and convey its paths into operation, it is to something which LACKS the RELEVANT capacities. Thus you get to the point where the idea of chance is such that there are not enough atoms in the universe to allow for what is needed, created without direction.

The other little point is that the categories are different. One is the operation of laws of chemistry, physics and so on , in their domains, and the products which are apt to form from those premises and bases. Another is the power to make use of these operational features of matter to achieve an end result which is not an observable inherent property of that low-level building block. How long would it take to build a medical surgery in a space-rocket module, with power to create various medicines from material components ? by chance ?

What IS chance ? It is the name given to a non-purposive exercise of the powers of a given system, without intervention, an isolable system, however complex. Things happen here because there is no outside control unit, personal or otherwise. You or an atom or a particle are hit by some other unit or a wave by some other entity, so that this is the way it is going to be. As it works itself out in terms of its own parameters, principles and powers, it has no attention to dispose on whether you or any entity you prize or follow will be preserved or deleted. There is nothing about it but the lack of intervention, which gives it any dignity. It is not creative, It is not author of unknown laws (these require intellectual formation and to be statable, symbolic and semantic capacity, to be matched by the objects or elements, in the case of life, to which they can then be directed).

Where these relevant laws and controls, this relevant in formation, this double-matching provision of language, to state comprehensively and comprehensibly what is in mind or view, is not in view, neither are the results of its exercise. Chance relative to a system meaning its lack of precisely such invasions or intrusions or directives, the presence merely of the laws at the order of procedures, such as chemical ones, is precisely what does not create the language or the double-acting creation-reception of it throughout the system in the generating and responding phases. That is what does it. The underlying bricks of matter are not what does it. Their powers are investigated, the one and the other, and each has the power to operate at its own level.

The simples answer is to  ask this; SHOW ME! Let me see with my own eyes the sort of results which you get for matter as you painstakingly investigate it, make RELEVANT hypotheses, check them out, prune them,  discard or confirm them, adjust or refine them till you find they have NO contraries in experimental fact or internal logical collision, or antilogies or anthitheses. Let us be empirical. Let us DO what is said to be  within the inherent powers of whatever is the alleged origin of this or that, such as life from a non-life universe, or for that matter, highly-law entwined matter from no universe at all!

Not merely are the endeavours irrelevant, which contrary to required, definable powers, simply fancy what might be, but they are a matter  of using what is contrary and deploying what is not there. Nothing or what lacks what is the relevant power, becomes the criterion,  guesswork the method, vacuity on display the result. Take it if you like. I prefer to be  rational.

Let an illustration speak. Suppose you had endless a,b,c ... marked little squares of paper: trillions. You want them to assembly to make sense, so that it resembles law, comprehensibility and meaning. Suppose, contrary to the case, it happened. You came up with what, in terms of letter by letter scrap bits*1, was the entirety of the huge novels of Sir Walter Scott.  Yet it would mean anything ONLY because you are ALREADY a man with a system of understanding symbols, and these in particular, duly imparted to your duly created, logic-and-symbol receptive and interpretive mind! Without the whole matter already in place, but YOUR BEING THERE, there is no meaning.

Since nothing is in place when you start at nothing, that is even more irrelevance.

The initial imagination of the association of letters to form all the data, including of course publication dates of each volume, prefaces and the like, far easier than having commands to institute the thing again in future editions of the whole, is farcically inadequate, wholly deficient, laughably trivial. It CANNOT mean ANYTHING in the imaginary situation before mind was made! which is the relevant one. So a meaningless and miraculous assemblage of understood symbols commands what does not have the machinery to fulfil it, nor the alignment of dynamics to match the commands, to do what has to be done. Since it CANNOT do this because on this model, there is neither understanding nor meaning, power, nor means for the transfer of communication, and there is no way to produce the product procedurally, let alone reproduce so that the imaginary upbuilding of information might occur when life should at length appear: it does not. The rational and the empirical are wed with a sort of passion.

Such information outlay is never found writing itself, in chapter or verse or word. It is never found. Indeed, the survival of the fittest could now have no relationship at all to continuation, so this is prior to any fit or unfit life, leaving us faced with an irrelevance so  profound, that we can understand the fit of laughing "till my sides were almost sore", that Darwin's famed, former mentor, Adam Sedgwick, told the young man he had had, when first reading of the witless theory (cf. p. 259, Evolution's Achilles' Heels).

What had Adam Sedgwick read ? It was from what was written in the unoriginal Origin of Species, that made wit out of mindlessness, law without logic and the  vast apparatus of all living forms, out of their absence, communication out of unintelligibility, command out of speechlessness and denotation out of what lacked means of symbolic representation, that it might be ordered for what was not there to be so ordered. 

Have then your order assemblages of bits (*1 ). But that would still not be enough, or near to it! The assemblage, like having bits of iron, wire, cylinder and tyre, in trillions of little proximity associations, is not the point, ludicrous as the non-adjusted bits would in any case be.

There has still to be meaning, so that some semantic and co-ordinating and co-ordinated system is at work to make results ACT in what would read what was commanded. You could not commandeer the mental capacity, direct or programmed, to read symbols and apply that meaning, with a mind to read such conceptual operational command, before it was there! There still has to be something which promulgates and RECEIVES in one symbolic set, that interprets aright the meaning, as in life.

Such a prodigy of performance does not come by need! if that were the operational medium, then how the poor might rejoice, engineering problems be attended to, and mind-bogged blockheads achieve in this world, wonders at the utmost level of sophistication. Leaving fairy tales about need equals feed aside, there has to be a meaningful directive, a disposing and a receptive symphony, co-ordination and comprehensibility, direct or indirect. The function of controlled, directed production has to be performed as in any other communication, to achieve what is there written. Indeed,  for the next generation to be formed in a continuing, living series, even if the environment kindly provided the material means without any structure for the stricture at the outset, this is a prodigious work to present, here by begging the question.

In addition, all the productive symbolic and physical ingredients are to be set in place at the right time, instant in the multiply complex directives, when required and where and in what configuration in installation, to meet the various foldings and unfoldings and the massive correction methods that work to make life physically possible. Meanings would have to be applied to symbols since programming does not reduce by rather increase the need, and semantics would be imported from nowhere. How could there ever BE a next generation if the first is conveyed only in the mind of man, not in the ascertainable actions of matter. The three levels, meaning, readability and application have to be there antecedently and to co-operate in systematic correlation, symbolic speech has to HAVE the meaning, reciprocal receptors to interpret it. If it were not there, there would be nothing to interpret, but since it is there, so is the basis for the programmatic paraphernalia, for figs do not grow on thistles, and meaning does not absent itself in constrained and continual consequence.

Indeed, there has to be feed-in and read-out correlativity of INFORMATION, not bits of stranded letters, whatever the meaning would or could be, if only there were system allowing and enabling performance.

In short, speak miracles and make them ordinary, in our digital readout of bits, imagined as achieved in a whole series of lines of instructive text, and then you have yet to begin anything RELEVANT. Life is not like that. It is a mere folly, like the architectural oddities in England, and since that is  simple correlation in a mind that exists, the case is far worse than the comparison exhibits!

Again, it is necessary to note, it does not happen that way, in power, potential, performance, under tests, in actuality, in terms of method. It is not found. Nor could it be. It lacks multitudes of necessary ingredients in KIND. It requires marvels of brilliantly imparted motors to run WITHIN the vital operations, BEFORE life can be. It rests on negation of means, imagination of results, assignments of methods, each one failing to provide by nature, what its nurture in the imagination assigns, and it proceeds simply by begging multiply the relevant question.

What makes things out of nothing (option: stay with nothing and never be at all!). What can never be nothing (or there would forever be nothing from that moment), must always be there on pain of being all that will ever be there, that is, once more, nothing. There is no romance in nothing, nor any substance in any sense! It accounts for nothing, produces nothing, has nothing in common with reason in seeking either meaning or production, or existence; and hence of the results of existence.

It must have all that is required for categorical, conceptually describable and activatable information before there is anything to be informed about, or any relevant capacity to enact or receive the same. Life must proceed by all its necessary means, all coerced into being and into action, all its motors and all its configurations, all its intolerance of even quite minor errors, with all the means to make this futility not to be, and this NOT because this is the nature of the system conceived, so that it might become more or less probable, but despite this not being so, and resolutely showing this at every turn.

In this parody of scientific method, then, contradiction becomes creation, imagination becomes mandate, omissions become masterpieces of creativity, and matter becomes a spanner for all works, a word-processor and a command centre, a semantic marvel in contrived organisation beyond itself, a symbolic masterpiece, a functional feature, created in the mind, but given only absentee status in causation in reality, and in formation. So nothing is made into matter, and matter into a conceptual focus rather than an operative on given laws, rules, conditions and situations.

It is far better to assign this eternal-non-nothing operator back of life, not to what systematically lacks all these ingredients, but instead has power to induce, produce and conduce for them. The laws, including those vastly important three noted at the first, thus operate also in terms of the categorically relevant. MATTER and ENERGY, the power to work and its ancillary structure, that in necessary reality has to be THERE, together with the directive resources to utilise these past what they are, into complex, co-ordinating design centres, are required for the life to life law, the third. Science does not make life, or show it occurring, since it is no more attested, the institution past. Only in the mind of such scientists and their disciples is all this brought not out of a hat, but out of nothing: more impressive, but far more outrageous.

Instead, the case is so that the necessities are required, the causes for the effects, each in its status and phase, each overlay and jurisdictive consignment in its operative felicity, the whole in its individual and overall command requisition. It is there because a competent cause put it there, not nothing, not an incompetent or inadequate or irrelevant or defective one. It is that or nothing that is the source. The result is not deniable, nor is the source. As the Bible declares, so does observation confirm. These things are not at all found to arise, present observation  does not show it, or the method, or provide the attestation back of it for our time; and what put it there is thus not now operative in such creation. Once more, as the Bible declares, so does reason require, not only in general, but as here, in detail. To speak of another and imaginary universe may be interesting; to deal honestly with this one is requisite for scientific method.

It does not in fact matter how many imagined and imaginative universes your mind may yearn to create, once you leave your mind as the creator, and come back to earth, there are just the same initial requirements; logic does not change. Requirements do not depart.

What then is the testimony of the now operative universe ? It runs down, dissipates in available energy as in the Second Law noted above, for there is cause and source for everything. Not only so, but in conformity to this natural law, even our genome runs down*2, and we face multiplied troubles until the Lord returns as He indicated: indeed HE declared human life could not in due time continue at all unless He DID return. God is not only necessary for reality, but indispensable for life, both to create it and to sustain it, neither part being inherent in the obedience of matter, its limits of observable operation, their grounds or their actions. Nor is matter  with its vast compendium of law made from a prior nothing or a bloom of thought, himself given in addition to life, the power to imagine in terms of stringent logic, or  ridiculous and tempestuous nonsense, as here blindly asserted in the organic evolutionary myth. It is a blind for the heart to hide in; but nothing but irrational darkness for the mind to confront.

Life itself requires life for its production. THIS is the status quo. What you have, is what you get. It does not invent itself. What you get loses operability by degrees, it degenerates (as does the genome of man, it being no exception as Sanford shows). LIFE in particular neither arrives by the laws which govern it now that it is here, nor survives, whatever the effort, as it declines towards the rest state, dynamic done, genomic directives mutated beyond operability, just as they were at the first unavailable for merely material creation, even when  that donation was so gratefully received in the begging the question department.

Just as we find in Proverbs, that the curse causeless does not come, so the creation causeless cannot come. An eternal nothing (not verified) or a conceptually caused product is required. Importing here a bit, there a bit from an imaginary resource when you have ruled out the well-attested actual one (cf. SMR, The gods of naturalism have no go!), is just a periodical rape of reality. The mind in such a state may attempt it; but matter is not subject to hypnosis, nor is nothing subject to laws of creation, or creativity.
