Pneumatics As Opposed To Physics

Pneumatics VS. Physics

In the natural realm or the secular world the application of Scientia (the term from which we derive the word science) is generally applied to either general science or Physics.  The term physics will generally refer to the nature and the properties of matter and energy.  This discipline will include the examination of the structure of the atom, light, energy, electro-magnetism, radiation, sound and electricity.  It is very comprehensive in examining and analyzing the laws that govern and and maintain the physical universe.  These laws, when understood, enable man to operate within the natural realm with utmost precision and effectiveness. 

It is the branch of physics that has allowed man to harness the living atom in using electricity to make our modern day appliances or fiber optics in creating smaller and more efficient computers which not controls virtually everything in our lives.  The knowledge in which man has achieved through science and technology is nothing short of miraculous when we look how far society has come over the last fifty years.  In a single lifetime man has achieved incredible results just from applying physics.  What would occur if the church would apply the same energy to the laws and processes of the spirit.  I am astounded at the successes made through theoretical physics, theoretical quantum physics and theoretical astro-physics. It is this reason I began to develop a discipline of study within the theological discipline that I term Pneumatics.

Where physics investigates the natural phenomenon of the the material "ontos" Pneumatics examines the phenomena of the spirit realm and its laws and processes.  Scripture reveals to us that those things that can be seen are those things that are temporal which indicates that every observable existence that can be analyzed by science is actually lower end Pneumatics.  This is what the scriptures reveal about the material universe.

     "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made..."  Rom. 1:20

Paul is very clear in that he reveals that those things (Ahoratos - The invisible) are clearly understood from the onslaught of creation (Ktisis - The thing that is forged or the building or creating of or the  creation).  In other words the pneumatic or spiritual law and realm can be understood by the natural things that are observed.  All material will manifest the spiritual truths and methodology of operations of the spiritual realm if one desires to see truth.  The King James versions says they are clearly seen.  The original implies that they are seen (Kathorao - To behold fully, distinctly or to see clearly) without obscurity.  Spiritual law can be observed and documented through the observance of the basics known as physics.  If physics appear to be quite comprehensive and difficult one can but wonder how awesomely comprehensive and difficult must Pneumatics be.

Paul goes on to proclaim the following:

     " While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."  2 Cor. 4:18

Paul is clear that we are not to  primarily take aim, regard or consider (Skopeo -Look) those things that can be seen with the naked eye.  These things are temporal (Proskairos - temporary endure for a while or for a season, temporary).  He infers that the things that are not seen are those things that endure always or are eternal (Aionios).  

It is the spiritual realm and the understanding of Pneumatics that will empower man to understood those things in the universe and beyond that he could not with mere physics.  I have been working on a book that will feature pneumatics and the branches and elements that are found in this awesome and unique pursuit as it relates to the Scientia of the Spirit.  This is one of the major problems in the Church of Jesus, we no very little about our own Kingdom and the laws that operate the very realms in which it is located.  If the church continues to grow in the understanding that the material realm sprang from the spiritual realm and the laws of the spiritual realm are the very laws that uphold continually the realm of matter (Heb. 1:3  "...and upholding all things by the word of his power..." the results of our achievements in this life and this realm would be astounding.

My prayer is that God will raise up those who have a hunger and thirst to understand the Kingdom before the "Desolation of Abominations" disrupts the natural course of the day to invoke the the pagentry of the last days.
