Everything I have previously articulated regarding communication on specific frequencies assumes a linear understanding of the universe. If we follow that logic, communicating via signals traveling through space is an impossibility within a finite cosmos. However, if we consider communication with omnipresent energies that permeate our very being, then frequency becomes irrelevant. These omnipresent, intelligent energies serve as the mechanism by which our thoughts propagate through the universe in ways we cannot yet grasp. Essentially, they act as our primary communication channel for connecting with anything in existence; under the current linear model, they are our only gateway to the rest of the universe.

Let us pivot to a different perspective: Back in 1979, I had the opportunity to observe how holographic photography functions. A table was set with various objects, including a magazine and a large magnifying glass positioned above it. Once the objects were removed and the holographic recording was viewed, the image was indistinguishable from the original. When looking through the magnifying glass from various angles, one could read the enlarged letters in the magazine just as if everything were still physically sitting on the table. Most fascinatingly, when the "plate" containing the image is broken into numerous fragments, even the smallest shard still contains the complete image of everything that was on that table.

If we conceptualize the entire universe as a hologram, then every single part of the universe contains the whole—including ourselves. Everything occurring in the vastness of space is simultaneously occurring within us, and by inversion, everything occurring within us is occurring throughout the entire universe. Consequently, all communication with omnipresent, intelligent energies happens within us, much like in the linear model, rather than externally. The distinction is that in a holographic universe, direct communication between individuals becomes possible without the mediation of these pervasive energies, regardless of cosmic distance, because there is no loss of signal intensity over space. Therefore, no amount of modern electronics designed to probe the nature of reality will ever uncover its true essence, because our technology remains shackled to the linear model. We will reach actual results only through the advancement of spirituality, just as Tesla once remarked. It appears that in a holographic model, or something akin to it, almost anything is possible, whereas the linear model offers very little.

I shall attempt to illustrate my viewpoint using this image:
image

I am aware that the image is symbolic; I would have drawn it differently to facilitate a clearer presentation, provided I had additional explanatory notes. On the left side of the image, the cloud and the air should be placed within the reclining figure. Similarly, on the right side, the tree and the dashed line should be contained within the standing figure, rather than existing outside of them.

Honestly, I really have to hand it to you for trying to break this all down, and if I’m being real, I think you’re actually getting pretty close to the heart of it. Personally, I don't think we're ever going to get our hands on the nitty-gritty details—you know, like the actual raw data or whatever—but I feel like we can definitely grasp the underlying principles or the general concept behind it all. It might sound kind of wild, maybe even totally absurd, to suggest that spiritual energies are actually steering us away from certain types of research, but I guess it's more like they're nudging us toward spiritual growth first? Like, if that's the ultimate goal of life anyway, then once we've leveled up spiritually, we'll naturally find our way to those high-level sources of knowledge where everyone can dive deep into whatever they're passionate about based on their own vibe. It’s almost like there's a cosmic filter, because if someone explicitly tells you a specific path of inquiry is just a total dead end, then you aren't going to find anything there, right?

On the left side of the image, the cloud and the air should be placed within the reclining figure. Similarly, on the right side, the tree and the dashed line should be contained within the standing figure, rather than existing outside of them.

So, look, I was thinking about this image, and honestly, it’s just so symbolic, you know? It shows this super spiritually evolved person—maybe like a healer, or a shaman, or some kind of mystic—who’s basically reaching out to this massive spiritual energy that looks all tangled up like these intertwined vines. They're praying to it to help heal someone who's lying there sick. And I guess what's happening is that this request, almost like an energetic arrow, shoots straight toward that energy. Then, the energy starts analyzing everything, right? Like, it's checking if the request actually aligns with the Creator's will, and whether the person asking even has the right spiritual level to get an answer, or if they're even ready for it. It also looks at how intense the response should be based on their vibration, and maybe even checks if they've had any past connections with this energy before. Once the energy "makes a plan," it sends back this response that looks like a cloud of energy descending toward the patient, or maybe just pouring through the air until it dissipates. So, I really think it’s kinda wrong when people say, "Oh, so-and-so healed me," because, well, that person was just the one making the request! They might not even truly understand the root cause of whatever illness the person is dealing with. I mean, no single human being actually has those kinds of healing powers on their own, but I guess if we all work on our spiritual growth, the whole universe kind of steps in to help us out. Even Jesus, I mean, He had all that support from the exact same kind of energy you see right there in the picture.

That whole "everything is within us" thing... honestly, I’m just sitting here scratching my head trying to figure out what that even means. I don't think anyone actually knows how to put it into plain English, you know? It's all so vague.

So, I guess in a way, they "pass through" because they're occupying the same space as us. I mean, from what I understand, we generally can't really connect with energies that aren't part of our specific slice of the universe (there might be some exceptions, but I haven't really figured out why yet). But, you also have to keep in mind that a lot of these energies probably don't have any interest in chatting with humans; they've got their own stuff going on and we're just not on their radar. It's only when we start growing spiritually that some of them might be open to—well, occasional and limited—communication. At first, it usually shows up as answers to prayers during healing sessions or things meant to lift our spiritual level. Only much later can you get to a point where there's actual conversation, starting with intuition and eventually moving toward something more audible.
I'm not sure if I'm explaining this right, but that kind of "conversational" communication is basically just our consciousness—or our brains, I guess—co-vibrating at the exact same frequency as that energy or that specific energy center (those fixed energetic complexes, if you want to get fancy). You know, if you want to sound like an expert or whatever.

You know, if you want to sound like an expert or whatever.

Let us add a layer of complexity to this proposition: Suppose we consider an individual undergoing treatment while enclosed within a solid iron Faraday cage. In such a scenario, healing would necessitate intervention at a purely quantum level—utilizing ultra-high frequency signals capable of penetrating the crystalline lattice of the iron itself. Now, consider a different case: someone residing in a modern apartment constructed of reinforced concrete, which essentially functions as its own Faraday cage. In this instance, the primary vulnerabilities are the windows and doors. To reach such a person, one might employ minimal frequencies with wavelengths long enough to permeate those openings, or perhaps a slightly higher frequency. It certainly wouldn't be achieved through small, short-wave frequencies.

In high-frequency electronics, when you're dealing with signal transmission at extreme levels, standard wiring becomes entirely obsolete. You simply cannot rely on wires because the parasitic capacitance and inductance become overwhelming obstacles. Instead, engineers utilize waveguides—essentially precision-engineered "tubes" designed to channel energy. Every single detail, from the dimensions of the branching apertures to the exact spacing between components, must be calculated with absolute rigor. To put it in more pedestrian terms, one might compare it to a home’s plumbing system, though that is a crude analogy. In a house, water flows through pipes; in this context, energy waves flow through these specialized structures. However, the level of precision required for these waveguides is orders of magnitude greater than anything found in residential plumbing. It leads one to wonder if the universe itself functions as a similarly meticulously constructed waveguide. If such a structure exists, any disturbance within it would necessitate an immediate energetic correction to ensure everything returns to its rightful equilibrium.

If memory serves, the prevailing scientific consensus regarding light emphasizes its dual nature—the idea that certain phenomena are best explained by treating light as a stream of particles, while others necessitate viewing it as a wave. It is a persistent duality. One is forced to wonder why we don't apply this same logic to the fabric of the universe itself. It stands to reason that the cosmos could be fundamentally dualistic: linear and holographic. We could utilize the linear framework to account for our mundane, terrestrial existence, while employing a holographic model to explain the spiritual realm—that invisible dimension inhabited by various beings and higher powers. It seems like a far more coherent way to structure our understanding of reality.

Gregory Jackson As I have noted before, there is an inherent tendency in modern discourse to overlook the most fundamental truths in favor of fleeting, superficial observations. One must approach these matters with a certain degree of intellectual rigor if any meaningful conclusion is to be reached. It is quite exhausting, really, watching the same cyclical arguments play out without any real progress being made.
"Everything is within us." It is a statement that I, for one, find utterly impossible to decipher. To be quite honest, I don't believe anyone actually possesses the capacity to interpret such a vague sentiment correctly.

I view this entire mechanism as an internal feedback loop. All these omnipresent energies exist both within us and around us simultaneously. We lack any empirical proof that we possess some kind of external transmitter capable of broadcasting signals into the void; rather, we simply "plug in" to the energy residing within our own being. One might think of it as submitting a request for healing on one specific frequency, only for the restorative energy to transmit a response back to us on a different frequency—an exchange that remains entirely contained within the self. If this healing beam were an external force traveling through physical space, it would inevitably encounter interference—say, someone living in a high-rise in Chicago who has no need for such a transmission. However, there is a more compelling possibility: what if this healing signal is encoded specifically for the recipient? Drawing from my background in biomedical electronics, I know that every single cell in the human body functions with a certain level of data storage capacity; through the exchange of sodium and potassium ions, a cell can essentially "remember" a bit. In a resting state, it maintains one potential, and in an excited state, another. By leveraging this, we could effectively transition into a digital existence—a realm far more potent than the analog one. It would be akin to interfacing directly with the architecture of a cosmic supercomputer.

I lack the jargon to explain it more professionally, but I can offer this: Following my service, I underwent a minor surgical procedure. As I was coming out of anesthesia, I was gripped by a sudden, sharp anxiety because I felt an overwhelming urge to die. In that moment, someone told me that I wasn't permitted to die yet because I hadn't completed my purpose. It wasn't a conversation in any traditional sense; I didn't utter a word, nor did the entity responding to me speak aloud. It was more of a profound, internal realization of spoken thought. Whether that was merely a side effect of the anesthesia or a genuine encounter with the spiritual realm remains to be seen.🤷

Honestly, it doesn't even matter if you're inside a Faraday cage or something. These energies—well, I guess you could call them energy waves—are just built differently, so physical barriers don't really stop them from doing their thing most of the time. I mean, I have seen some interference before, though! Like, when my group goes out to visit these high-energy sites, we actually leave all our electronics back at the hotel during the activation process. It’s because these spiritual energies basically told us that having gadgets around might mess with the flow, since everything we're doing happens out in the open air. And then there’s the whole situation with those power spots in Japan... oh wait, I should probably say the legendary energy centers over there. Apparently, the luminous beings actually abandoned those places right before the atomic bombs were dropped, fleeing instead to Mount Fuji, and a good chunk of them haven't even made it back to their original spots yet—maybe like 30% of them are still hanging out around Mount Fuji. It makes sense, I guess, because they had to escape those massive energetic shifts caused by the bombs just to keep from being damaged. Out of those three main power locations, one is near Tokyo, and the other two are tucked away around Kyoto.

In high-frequency electronics, when you're dealing with signal transmission at extreme levels, standard wiring becomes entirely obsolete. You simply cannot rely on wires because the parasitic capacitance and inductance become overwhelming obstacles. Instead, engineers utilize waveguides—essentially precision-engineered "tubes" designed to channel energy. Every single detail, from the dimensions of the branching apertures to the exact spacing between components, must be calculated with absolute rigor. To put it in more pedestrian terms, one might compare it to a home’s plumbing system, though that is a crude analogy. In a house, water flows through pipes; in this context, energy waves flow through these specialized structures. However, the level of precision required for these waveguides is orders of magnitude greater than anything found in residential plumbing. It leads one to wonder if the universe itself functions as a similarly meticulously constructed waveguide. If such a structure exists, any disturbance within it would necessitate an immediate energetic correction to ensure everything returns to its rightful equilibrium.

If memory serves, the prevailing scientific consensus regarding light emphasizes its dual nature—the idea that certain phenomena are best explained by treating light as a stream of particles, while others necessitate viewing it as a wave. It is a persistent duality. One is forced to wonder why we don't apply this same logic to the fabric of the universe itself. It stands to reason that the cosmos could be fundamentally dualistic: linear and holographic. We could utilize the linear framework to account for our mundane, terrestrial existence, while employing a holographic model to explain the spiritual realm—that invisible dimension inhabited by various beings and higher powers. It seems like a far more coherent way to structure our understanding of reality.

Gregory Jackson As I have noted before, there is an inherent tendency in modern discourse to overlook the most fundamental truths in favor of fleeting, superficial observations. One must approach these matters with a certain degree of intellectual rigor if any meaningful conclusion is to be reached. It is quite exhausting, really, watching the same cyclical arguments play out without any real progress being made.
"Everything is within us." It is a statement that I, for one, find utterly impossible to decipher. To be quite honest, I don't believe anyone actually possesses the capacity to interpret such a vague sentiment correctly.

I view this entire mechanism as an internal feedback loop. All these omnipresent energies exist both within us and around us simultaneously. We lack any empirical proof that we possess some kind of external transmitter capable of broadcasting signals into the void; rather, we simply "plug in" to the energy residing within our own being. One might think of it as submitting a request for healing on one specific frequency, only for the restorative energy to transmit a response back to us on a different frequency—an exchange that remains entirely contained within the self. If this healing beam were an external force traveling through physical space, it would inevitably encounter interference—say, someone living in a high-rise in Chicago who has no need for such a transmission. However, there is a more compelling possibility: what if this healing signal is encoded specifically for the recipient? Drawing from my background in biomedical electronics, I know that every single cell in the human body functions with a certain level of data storage capacity; through the exchange of sodium and potassium ions, a cell can essentially "remember" a bit. In a resting state, it maintains one potential, and in an excited state, another. By leveraging this, we could effectively transition into a digital existence—a realm far more potent than the analog one. It would be akin to interfacing directly with the architecture of a cosmic supercomputer.

I lack the jargon to explain it more professionally, but I can offer this: Following my service, I underwent a minor surgical procedure. As I was coming out of anesthesia, I was gripped by a sudden, sharp anxiety because I felt an overwhelming urge to die. In that moment, someone told me that I wasn't permitted to die yet because I hadn't completed my purpose. It wasn't a conversation in any traditional sense; I didn't utter a word, nor did the entity responding to me speak aloud. It was more of a profound, internal realization of spoken thought. Whether that was merely a side effect of the anesthesia or a genuine encounter with the spiritual realm remains to be seen.🤷

Haha, you’re pretty sharp, I gotta give you that! There’s actually this whole thing about corrections, almost like there’s a specific kind of energy dedicated just to fixing things. I guess you could say celestial bodies act like these massive structural mechanisms designed to recalibrate different energies and processes within both the energetic and material universe. They basically step in to correct any deviations from the original program that God set for a specific energy or body—though those deviations happen all the time, usually because of some messy, unwanted interactions. Like, if you look at Earth, its aura is incredibly sensitive to waves of negative thought, and because of how its aura is specifically structured, one of its layers is actually pretty damaged right now. The celestial bodies try their best to patch up those holes, but honestly, there just aren't enough of them to keep up with the damage caused by all our conflicts, fighting, and wars, which just pump out an overwhelming amount of negativity and fear.

I mean, if you think about it, because the universe is just so incredibly complex, you end up getting these totally unintended or unpredictable interactions between different kinds of energy and physical matter, which basically trigger these massive cosmic catastrophes—kind of like how a chemical reaction happens when you mix two substances that just don't play nice together, I guess. So, because things can get so chaotic so fast, having timely corrections is absolutely vital, which is why I feel like those cosmic bodies are just totally indispensable, maybe?

Angela Cox said:Let us add a layer of complexity to this proposition: Suppose we consider an individual undergoing treatment while enclosed within a solid iron Faraday cage. In such a scenario, healing would necessitate intervention at a purely quantum level—utilizing ultra-high frequency signals capable of penetrating the crystalline lattice of the iron itself. Now, consider a different case: someone residing in a modern apartment constructed of reinforced concrete, which essentially functions as its own Faraday cage. In this instance, the primary vulnerabilities are the windows and doors. To reach such a person, one might employ minimal frequencies with wavelengths long enough to permeate those openings, or perhaps a slightly higher frequency.

Personally, I really believe it’s dualistic in nature. I mean, spiritual energy practitioners don't usually talk about it that way, but I once had contact with an energy that introduced itself as coming from the Anti-Cosmos, whatever that might actually signify.

Yeah, it totally is "encoded." Energies are incredibly intelligent and they definitely know their target; you can find that happening right under our feet in the US even as we speak. You just need to be uniquely identified somehow, like being the brother of someone famous like John Smith, or having your specific image stored by whoever is firing those "arrows," or some other way like that. This idea of a cosmic computer... man, I love that. I honestly think you’d really dig this kind of cosmic physics if you ever got the chance to truly tap into it.

Yeah, yeah, that is a realization. It’s just like a thought pops into your head, and you just *know* it isn't yours. Once a person reaches a high level of development, communication with energies happens primarily through these realizations (though, I guess, misinterpretations or consciousness interference are possible too). It’s very likely that was your higher self talking; that's our main point of contact, most likely. Think of it like this: the Creator comes to you like the CEO of a massive corporation; He doesn't deal with us directly, instead, we're busy dealing with the lower-level managers (our higher self, local energies, and fields) and the middle management (spiritual energies).

Gregory Jackson, look, here is my take on this: I found myself getting boggedrightarrow stuck on those Faraday cage frequencies and who knows what else—mostly because you brought up certain frequencies yourself and I bit the bait. But honestly, it is a triviality. It is much like how I operate my computer; I understand the hardware exists and I know which components are inside, yet I do not dwell on the mechanics while I am actually using the machine. That is precisely how one should approach the spiritual realm. You utilize it. Why bother worrying about the underlying mechanics? Practical application exists on a plane far superior to mere operational principles.

Since everything in this universe is energy, one could argue that the limitations we impose upon ourselves are simply energy vibrating at specific frequencies. Think of it as a mental Faraday cage, trapping our creative energies and preventing them from escaping. The only distinction between a physical cage and a mental one is visibility; the essence remains the same. We need to purge this "energy of limitation" from our minds—to dismantle the internal cage that creates these blockages. Once that barrier is removed, truly anything becomes possible.

It really is just a cage made of our own thoughts, our attitudes, and all those social or moral norms we live by. It's a mix of stuff we force on ourselves and stuff society pushes onto us, which we eventually just swallow whole until we don't even see the bars anymore. Some of the things we're talking about here seem totally wild if you try to measure them against what people currently "know" or what the mainstream consensus says. But then again, back in the day, the idea of flying was considered absolutely impossible too, and look how far we've come.

Here is how the early Church Fathers and theologians described the nature of God:

Tatian the Syrian

“Our God knows no beginning within time. He is Himself without origin, acting as the very fountainhead of all existence. God is spirit, existing entirely apart from matter; rather, He is the architect of the material spirits and the phenomena that manifest within the physical realm. He is the invisible Father of both the perceptible and the unseen” (Epistle to the Greeks 4 [A.D. 170]).

Athanasius

“I have demonstrated sufficiently that we are not atheists, for we acknowledge one God—unbegotten, eternal, invisible, unchanging, incomprehensible, and unbound. He is a being known only through intellect and reason, enveloped in light and beauty; He is spirit possessing indescribable power, through whom all things were created and ordered by His Word, and through whom they are sustained in being” (Apology for Christians 10 [A.D. 177]).

Irenaeus

“The Father of all things remains far removed from these earthly affairs, from the fleeting emotions and passions of men. He is simple, lacking any composition or structure, being identical only to Himself. He is pure intellect, pure spirit, pure thought, and pure reason... the very essence of light and the ultimate source of every good; this is how the pious and religious have always spoken of God” (Against Heresies 2,13,3 [A.D. 189]).

Clement of Alexandria

“Consider the hierarchy of substance: first, there is that which exists purely in itself, much like a stone is defined as a substance. Second is the substance capable of growth, such as a plant that flourishes and then decays. Third is the animated, sensory substance, like an animal or a horse. Fourth is the animated, sensory, and rational substance, found in mankind. From this, we see that each of us is composed of elements of the whole, for we possess an immaterial soul and mind, which serves as the image of God” (Excerpt from On Providence [A.D. 200]).

“Being resides in God. God is the divine Being, eternal and without beginning, incorporeal and limitless, the cause of everything that exists. To be is to persist completely. Nature is the truth of things, their inner reality. For some, nature is merely the product of what has come to be; for others, it is God’s providence, which causes being and provides the mode of existence for all created things.” (Ibid).

“What is God? ‘God,’ as the Lord says, ‘is spirit.’ Spirit is a specific, incorporeal, and indescribable substance. Incorporeal means that which possesses no body, whose existence is not defined by breath, length, or depth. And indescribable refers to that which occupies no space, yet dwells fully within all things, and within each thing entirely, while remaining perfectly itself.” (Ibid).

“No one can truly express Him in His entirety. Because of His sheer magnitude, He is defined as All, and He is the Father of all creation. There are no parts to which He could be assigned, for He is One and indivisible; thus, He is also infinite. We do not speak of Him in terms of being incomprehensible, but rather in terms of His sovereign, dimensionless, and boundless nature. Therefore, He is without form or name (Miscellaneous 5,13 [A.D. 208]).

Origen

“Since our own minds are inherently incapable of perceiving God as He truly is, we recognize the Father of all creation through the beauty of His works and the elegance of His handiwork. Thus, God is not regarded as a bodily being or one who inhabits a body, but as a purely intellectual Being, acknowledging that there is no addition or composition of any kind within Him” (Fundamental Truths 1,1,16 [A.D. 225]).

“John writes in the Gospel: 'No one has ever seen God,' clearly stating to all who have understanding that there is no nature through which God is visible—not because He might accidentally be seen by the eyes of a perishable creature, but because it is impossible by His very nature to be seen” (Ibid 1,1,8).

Athanasius

“God, however, since He has no parts, is the Father of the Son without division or change. For there is no beginning derived from His incorporeality, nor does anything enter into Him as it does into man. Simple in His nature, He is the Father of the only Son” (Letter on the Council of Nicaea 11 [A.D. 350]).

I suppose I should start by saying that there are times when one feels a bit lost in the shuffle of things, much like wandering through a dense fog without a compass, though perhaps even more aimlessly than that. It’s an odd sensation, isn't it? To feel as though you are drifting through life without a clear sense of direction or purpose, almost as if the very ground beneath your feet were made of shifting sand rather than something solid and dependable. There was this one afternoon, years ago, while I was sitting in a quiet little café over in Seattle—just watching the rain hit the window and thinking about how unpredictable existence can be—that I realized just how often we find ourselves stumbling blindly through our own decisions. We try to make sense of everything, to build these elaborate structures of logic and reason, yet we often end up feeling quite sightless in the face of true uncertainty. It’s a heavy thought, certainly, but one that seems to weigh on many of us as we navigate the complexities of being alive in this great, sprawling nation.

"God is simple, uncomplicated, and purely spiritual in nature; He possesses neither ears nor any physical organs for speech. He is pure essence and infinite, existing without being composed of numbers or constituent parts" (Holy Spirit 35 [a.d. 362.]).

Hilary of Poitiers

One must first hold fast to the realization that God is entirely incorporeal. He isn’t some collection of physical parts or a composite of various limbs and organs that might make up a biological body. If we look at the Gospel, it is clearly stated that God is spirit—invisible, eternal in nature, immeasurable, and completely self-sufficient. It is written that a spirit lacks the flesh and bone that define our physical existence; God’s very substance requires none of those earthly components. Yet, even though He lacks a physical frame, He remains omnipresent, dwelling within all things—all-hearing, all-seeing, all-acting, and the ultimate sustainer of everything in existence.

Basil the Great

“God’s actions may manifest in a thousand different ways, yet His essence remains beautifully simple” (Letters 234,1 [A.D. 367]).

Ambrose Milanski

God is essentially simple in nature; He isn't composed of parts, nor is He a collection of different elements. You can't really add anything to Him to make Him "more" than what He is. In His very essence, He possesses only that which is divine—it is the quality that fills everything entirely. He doesn't mingle with or get entangled in anything else, yet at the same time, He permeates all things. While He flows through everything, nothing can ever penetrate or intrude upon Him. It is a bit like how light might fill a room without being changed by the objects it touches, except much more profound. He remains perfectly complete and present everywhere all at once, whether we are looking up at the heavens, walking the streets of a city like Chicago, or staring out at the most remote reaches of the Atlantic Ocean. To the human eye, His true nature remains utterly beyond our ability to fully grasp or communicate.

Evagrius Ponticus

To those who point a finger at us and claim we are teaching a doctrine of three separate gods, let them understand that we confess only one God—not in terms of quantity, but in essence. You see, when we speak of something being numerically one, that doesn't necessarily mean it is absolutely singular or simple in its very nature. It is a concept widely accepted by scholars and theologians alike: that God is simple and not composed of various parts.

Gregory Jackson

There will never be—nor could there ever be—any dogma within the Church of God that would attempt to prove that the simple, indivisible nature of God is anything other than what it truly is. To suggest that He is multifaceted, shifting, or somehow composed of conflicting elements is simply a fallacy. The sheer simplicity found within the dogma of truth serves only to reveal the true essence of God exactly as He is.

John Chrysostom

When we look at how Paul approaches his understanding of God, he isn't suggesting that he possesses a fragmented view of the Divine essence—as if he were holding one piece of a puzzle while lacking the rest. That wouldn't make much sense because God is fundamentally simple, a singular and undivided reality. Rather, when he uses the term "partially," he’s really just acknowledging the vast, unbridgeable gap between human perception and the actual nature of the Creator. He knows, with absolute certainty, that God exists; he recognizes the presence of the Divine in the world around him. But as for what God truly is in His essential being? That remains a mystery beyond the reach of our limited intellect. It is less about knowing only a fraction of the truth and more about recognizing that the full magnitude of God's essence is simply too immense for us to ever fully grasp.

Why does John insist that "no one has ever seen God" (John 1:18)? I suspect he’s making a distinction regarding our capacity for true, perfect comprehension—that deep, intimate knowledge of the Divine essence. If you look at the various instances in history where people claim to have had visions of God, you'll notice a pattern of inconsistency. It’s almost self-evident that none of those individuals actually caught a glimpse of the pure, unadulterated essence of God, because if they had, their experiences wouldn't be so wildly different from one another. You see, God is fundamentally simple, undivided, and without any physical shape or composition; yet, the visions people report are all varying shapes and forms.

Augustin

When we look at the world around us—this swirling, ever-changing landscape of physical things—we have to make a distinction between what a thing actually is and how it simply appears to be in a given moment. In these shifting, created realities, if we aren't describing the core essence of a thing, we are merely talking about its accidents—those fleeting qualities like color, shape, or position that drift and change as time passes. It’s much like how a car might be red one day and blue the next after a repaint, or how a house might feel warm in the afternoon and cold by midnight; the "redness" or the "warmth" isn't the house itself, but just a temporary state of being. However, when we turn our gaze toward God, the entire framework shifts. There is absolutely nothing in Him that can be categorized as an accident. You won't find any fluctuations or passing whims there, because there is no change within the Divine. Everything we can possibly say about Him doesn't just describe a temporary quality or a passing mood; rather, everything spoken of Him pertains directly to His very substance. He is constant, unchanging, and entirely whole in Himself.

Cyril of Alexandria

By our very nature, we aren't exactly simple creatures; yet, the divine nature—which is perfectly simple and lacks nothing by design—holds within itself an absolute abundance of all perfections and requires nothing more from the outside world.

"The very essence of the supreme God, being inherently simple and indivisible, can never be split into two parts" (The Riches of the Holy Trinity 11 [a.d. 424]).

When you encounter Divine Scripture speaking of God through the lens of physical actions or bodily descriptions, try not to let your mind get bogged down in those literal, tangible details. It is so easy to fall into the trap of visualizing the material world when we read such passages, but I find it much more fruitful to look past the physical imagery used as a metaphor and instead step into the profound beauty of the underlying concepts. Rather than fixating on shapes, quantities, specific descriptions, or any other physical attributes that define our earthly existence, one should strive to contemplate God—even though He remains far beyond the grasp of our limited intellect. We simply cannot speak of Him in truly human terms; after all, there is no other way for us to conceptualize things that so vastly transcend our own understanding.

Daniel Castillo11 said:Here is how the early Church Fathers and theologians described the nature of God:

Tatian the Syrian

“Our God knows no beginning within time. He is Himself without origin, acting as the very fountainhead of all existence. God is spirit, existing entirely apart from matter; rather, He is the architect of the material spirits and the phenomena that manifest within the physical realm. He is the invisible Father of both the perceptible and the unseen” (Epistle to the Greeks 4 [A.D. 170]).

Athanasius

“I have demonstrated sufficiently that we are not atheists, for we acknowledge one God—unbegotten, eternal, invisible, unchanging, incomprehensible, and unbound. He is a being known only through intellect and reason, enveloped in light and beauty; He is spirit possessing indescribable power, through whom all things were created and ordered by His Word, and through whom they are sustained in being” (Apology for Christians 10 [A.D. 177]).

Irenaeus

“The Father of all things remains far removed from these earthly affairs, from the fleeting emotions and passions of men. He is simple, lacking any composition or structure, being identical only to Himself. He is pure intellect, pure spirit, pure thought, and pure reason... the very essence of light and the ultimate source of every good; this is how the pious and religious have always spoken of God” (Against Heresies 2,13,3 [A.D. 189]).

Clement of Alexandria

“Consider the hierarchy of substance: first, there is that which exists purely in itself, much like a stone is defined as a substance. Second is the substance capable of growth, such as a plant that flourishes and then decays. Third is the animated, sensory substance, like an animal or a horse. Fourth is the animated, sensory, and rational substance, found in mankind. From this, we see that each of us is composed of elements of the whole, for we possess an immaterial soul and mind, which serves as the image of God” (Excerpt from On Providence [A.D. 200]).

“Being resides in God. God is the divine Being, eternal and without beginning, incorporeal and limitless, the cause of everything that exists. To be is to persist completely. Nature is the truth of things, their inner reality. For some, nature is merely the product of what has come to be; for others, it is God’s providence, which causes being and provides the mode of existence for all created things.” (Ibid).

“What is God? ‘God,’ as the Lord says, ‘is spirit.’ Spirit is a specific, incorporeal, and indescribable substance. Incorporeal means that which possesses no body, whose existence is not defined by breath, length, or depth. And indescribable refers to that which occupies no space, yet dwells fully within all things, and within each thing entirely, while remaining perfectly itself.” (Ibid).

“No one can truly express Him in His entirety. Because of His sheer magnitude, He is defined as All, and He is the Father of all creation. There are no parts to which He could be assigned, for He is One and indivisible; thus, He is also infinite. We do not speak of Him in terms of being incomprehensible, but rather in terms of His sovereign, dimensionless, and boundless nature. Therefore, He is without form or name (Miscellaneous 5,13 [A.D. 208]).

Origen

“Since our own minds are inherently incapable of perceiving God as He truly is, we recognize the Father of all creation through the beauty of His works and the elegance of His handiwork. Thus, God is not regarded as a bodily being or one who inhabits a body, but as a purely intellectual Being, acknowledging that there is no addition or composition of any kind within Him” (Fundamental Truths 1,1,16 [A.D. 225]).

“John writes in the Gospel: 'No one has ever seen God,' clearly stating to all who have understanding that there is no nature through which God is visible—not because He might accidentally be seen by the eyes of a perishable creature, but because it is impossible by His very nature to be seen” (Ibid 1,1,8).

Athanasius

“God, however, since He has no parts, is the Father of the Son without division or change. For there is no beginning derived from His incorporeality, nor does anything enter into Him as it does into man. Simple in His nature, He is the Father of the only Son” (Letter on the Council of Nicaea 11 [A.D. 350]).

I suppose I should start by saying that there are times when one feels a bit lost in the shuffle of things, much like wandering through a dense fog without a compass, though perhaps even more aimlessly than that. It’s an odd sensation, isn't it? To feel as though you are drifting through life without a clear sense of direction or purpose, almost as if the very ground beneath your feet were made of shifting sand rather than something solid and dependable. There was this one afternoon, years ago, while I was sitting in a quiet little café over in Seattle—just watching the rain hit the window and thinking about how unpredictable existence can be—that I realized just how often we find ourselves stumbling blindly through our own decisions. We try to make sense of everything, to build these elaborate structures of logic and reason, yet we often end up feeling quite sightless in the face of true uncertainty. It’s a heavy thought, certainly, but one that seems to weigh on many of us as we navigate the complexities of being alive in this great, sprawling nation.

"God is simple, uncomplicated, and purely spiritual in nature; He possesses neither ears nor any physical organs for speech. He is pure essence and infinite, existing without being composed of numbers or constituent parts" (Holy Spirit 35 [a.d. 362.]).

Hilary of Poitiers

One must first hold fast to the realization that God is entirely incorporeal. He isn’t some collection of physical parts or a composite of various limbs and organs that might make up a biological body. If we look at the Gospel, it is clearly stated that God is spirit—invisible, eternal in nature, immeasurable, and completely self-sufficient. It is written that a spirit lacks the flesh and bone that define our physical existence; God’s very substance requires none of those earthly components. Yet, even though He lacks a physical frame, He remains omnipresent, dwelling within all things—all-hearing, all-seeing, all-acting, and the ultimate sustainer of everything in existence.

Basil the Great

“God’s actions may manifest in a thousand different ways, yet His essence remains beautifully simple” (Letters 234,1 [A.D. 367]).

Ambrose Milanski

God is essentially simple in nature; He isn't composed of parts, nor is He a collection of different elements. You can't really add anything to Him to make Him "more" than what He is. In His very essence, He possesses only that which is divine—it is the quality that fills everything entirely. He doesn't mingle with or get entangled in anything else, yet at the same time, He permeates all things. While He flows through everything, nothing can ever penetrate or intrude upon Him. It is a bit like how light might fill a room without being changed by the objects it touches, except much more profound. He remains perfectly complete and present everywhere all at once, whether we are looking up at the heavens, walking the streets of a city like Chicago, or staring out at the most remote reaches of the Atlantic Ocean. To the human eye, His true nature remains utterly beyond our ability to fully grasp or communicate.

Evagrius Ponticus

To those who point a finger at us and claim we are teaching a doctrine of three separate gods, let them understand that we confess only one God—not in terms of quantity, but in essence. You see, when we speak of something being numerically one, that doesn't necessarily mean it is absolutely singular or simple in its very nature. It is a concept widely accepted by scholars and theologians alike: that God is simple and not composed of various parts.

Gregory Jackson

There will never be—nor could there ever be—any dogma within the Church of God that would attempt to prove that the simple, indivisible nature of God is anything other than what it truly is. To suggest that He is multifaceted, shifting, or somehow composed of conflicting elements is simply a fallacy. The sheer simplicity found within the dogma of truth serves only to reveal the true essence of God exactly as He is.

John Chrysostom

When we look at how Paul approaches his understanding of God, he isn't suggesting that he possesses a fragmented view of the Divine essence—as if he were holding one piece of a puzzle while lacking the rest. That wouldn't make much sense because God is fundamentally simple, a singular and undivided reality. Rather, when he uses the term "partially," he’s really just acknowledging the vast, unbridgeable gap between human perception and the actual nature of the Creator. He knows, with absolute certainty, that God exists; he recognizes the presence of the Divine in the world around him. But as for what God truly is in His essential being? That remains a mystery beyond the reach of our limited intellect. It is less about knowing only a fraction of the truth and more about recognizing that the full magnitude of God's essence is simply too immense for us to ever fully grasp.

Why does John insist that "no one has ever seen God" (John 1:18)? I suspect he’s making a distinction regarding our capacity for true, perfect comprehension—that deep, intimate knowledge of the Divine essence. If you look at the various instances in history where people claim to have had visions of God, you'll notice a pattern of inconsistency. It’s almost self-evident that none of those individuals actually caught a glimpse of the pure, unadulterated essence of God, because if they had, their experiences wouldn't be so wildly different from one another. You see, God is fundamentally simple, undivided, and without any physical shape or composition; yet, the visions people report are all varying shapes and forms.

Augustin

When we look at the world around us—this swirling, ever-changing landscape of physical things—we have to make a distinction between what a thing actually is and how it simply appears to be in a given moment. In these shifting, created realities, if we aren't describing the core essence of a thing, we are merely talking about its accidents—those fleeting qualities like color, shape, or position that drift and change as time passes. It’s much like how a car might be red one day and blue the next after a repaint, or how a house might feel warm in the afternoon and cold by midnight; the "redness" or the "warmth" isn't the house itself, but just a temporary state of being. However, when we turn our gaze toward God, the entire framework shifts. There is absolutely nothing in Him that can be categorized as an accident. You won't find any fluctuations or passing whims there, because there is no change within the Divine. Everything we can possibly say about Him doesn't just describe a temporary quality or a passing mood; rather, everything spoken of Him pertains directly to His very substance. He is constant, unchanging, and entirely whole in Himself.

Cyril of Alexandria

Thanks so much for sharing this, it’s honestly such a beautiful little reminder. Just to circle back to what I mentioned in my first post regarding spiritual energies:

This force is the creative one, you know? It’s what allows for the generation of energies, and then from those energies comes matter—both the living kind and the dead stuff. I guess the most accurate way to describe this energy is simply as the Creator or God the Creator. This energy is all-pervading, and it possesses an unimaginable intelligence along with all knowledge and power. Since it’s all-encompassing, maybe it can't be entirely homogeneous, so it probably consists of its own partial elements.
