The Seven Views of Time: Spiracular Time

Firstly, as a linguist, I am aware that there is no such word as spiracular. I make up words. When you're exploring the unknown, you get to do that. It's one of the many perks.

This next view of time will be more difficult to comprehend than linear or circular time, and I haven't heard of a culture that really bases their view of time on a spiral.

I will also say here that I haven't explored the time spiral as much as the timeline and the circle of time. Indeed, there will be much more revelation on the time spiral as I travel the time spiral...

Spiracular time is much like circular time, except that instead of hitting the same point over and over again, you are hitting points slightly farther out than the ones you hit before. It is for this reason that spiral time allows progress to happen, while also allowing you to revisit or learn again something you've already experienced.

My views on redemption have changed quite a bit in the past few months. Redemption is only of your mind and your view of the world, where you see that Yahweh is all that there is and ever was. Certain things you thought were Real are not Real, and those thoughts and patterns and views of past and future experiences have to be redeemed.

Spiracular time allows you to take your current revelation into past experiences so that you can see them as they Really were... or were not. It is in this way that you can access points of time and events in your past and redeem them to the point that the things that are contrary to Yahweh didn't happen, cannot hurt you, and cannot hurt anyone who comes into agreement in faith with Yahweh's Reality.

This can be a difficult thing when there are others in your life in your timeline who do not have the faith to travel the time spiral. They may not come into agreement with you that certain things never happened. That is their choice and in no way has to affect your ability to redeem the past. Indeed, you can help them redeem the past by traveling the time spiral with the revelation that certain things they did to you didn't happen. This is called "forgiveness."

Again, to redefine forgiveness, it is realizing the Reality in an event or incident in a relationship with another person. ____ stole from you, lied to you, betrayed you, cheated you, hurt you? No. None of that happened because that isn't Yahweh and Yahweh is all that there is. If you can truly see another person that way, you can forgive them and help them see the potential in spiracular time. Perhaps they will travel this path themselves one day. I believe they will!

But spiracular time is not only for redemption or forgiveness of past events. It is also for forward progress. This is where the time spiral and the time circle become very similar, because every time you hit a point in forward momentum that is on roughly the same line, you are experiencing spiral time, but this is also in circular time where you are hitting the same point over and over again. Every time you hit this point, receive a new revelation, and assimilate that revelation into your paradigm or view of Reality, you move forward (or out) in the spiral.

I used to worry about these things, when two things seemed to be one and yet seemed to be separate, but then Yahweh reminded me that He is Elohim, the multiplicity of the singular. Elohim is a Hebrew name used for Yahweh that is a plural noun that uses a singular verb. In other words, Yahweh is all things and all things are Him. Yet all things have an individuality. So everything is One and yet separate also... all at the same time! But that's another post (and another view of time.) I suppose my point here is that all of these views of time are One, and so circular time and spiracular time sharing some components is not surprising.

Spiracular time allows us to grow, then, in Yahweh without being confined to a line and forward progress. It allows us to hit points on our timeline that we thought were inaccessible, behind us. It allows us to hit points that are outside of our timeline, also. Yes, it allows us to move up and down as well as forward and backward, and that will be important later. I know this, though I don't yet know quite how.

I said in a previous post that Abraham was able to move forward in time to the fulfillment of Yahshua on the cross and obtain the righteousness given to us there either via circular time or spiracular time, though I wasn't sure which. I honestly think it was both. Romans 4:9-12 talks about how Abraham was justified by faith before he was circumcised. Paul was using this illustration to show how the just are saved by faith instead of works, but it also shows how it is possible to have things before they happen. In other words, because Abraham had faith in Yahshua even though Yahshua hadn't accomplished His purpose on the cross in linear time, he was able to move forward into that moment in time on the cross and join himself to that finished work, bringing it back with him to the moment in the timeline in which he lived, thousands of years before. Only after that was he circumcised in linear time.

Any of us who have received the righteousness given by Yahshua on the cross have also traveled in spiral time. Abraham had to move forward in the timeline, but we had to move backward. Galatians 2:20 says we were crucified with Christ. Romans 6:1-11 also says that we were baptized into Christ's "death" that we might also be alive to Christ. Do we think this mere cute symbolism? Do we think that this only happens in our hearts once we believe? Or do we truly believe that we were with Christ on the cross when He said, "It is finished" and we are able to live in Him and His finished work even now?

Both of these illustrations have to do with faith. Abraham believed Yahweh and it was accounted to Him as righteousness. We believed in Yahshua's finished work and so have lain hold of our Promise. All motion through time is of faith. We cannot access any other point in the infinite-eternal spectrum except by faith and total Covenant. Circular time is binding yourself to each point by faith, spiracular time allows you freedom to move through the Planes of Infinity and all points therein by faith. I would even say here that people cannot move forward in linear time except by faith. Don't we all know people whose lives just seem to stop? They stop growing in Christ, creating, maturing, and truly living. Even though they may exist and get older, they don't really move forward. This is because you really can't have any progress or movement in time except by faith.

Why Creation Isn't Waiting For You to Rule and Reign

There's this idea that creation is waiting for the sons of God to take their places and make the world what it needs to be, this idea that some day out there Yahweh will come back and take us to Heaven and reign from His Throne. Once we remember sovereignty and that we are One with Yahweh, we realize that we are the ones sitting on this throne with Yahweh. We also need to remember that time and eternity are One. Time is the instrument of Our growth, and We actually use it to grow eternity. Once we realize these two things, we can see that We are sovereign in our own lives and ruling and reigning from this throne right now. The instrument of Our dominion is Our choices. This is what Paul talked about in 1 Corinthians 3 where he talks about how we each choose what materials to build our lives with. Some choose jewels, some choose clay. I, as the sovereign in my own life, get to decide what materials to build my life with. However, I cannot judge another's life. As each of u

How the Grinch Didn't Steal Anything

You know how the Grinch tried to stop Christmas from coming, and yet it came anyway? Nothing he did could stop Christmas, whether it be taking the traditions, the decorations, the gifts. He took away the familiar and the sacred, but those silly little Whos were able to recognize Christmas when it came anyway, though it had a different form than maybe it had had in the past. What is Christmas, anyway? We all know the story of how Yahweh sent His Son to the Earth as the greatest gift of all for mankind. He sent Him completely, not reserving or holding anything back, and no matter how King Herod or circumstances tried to keep Him from coming, He came anyway, in a place and form that nobody expected a King to come, let alone the Messiah of Israel and Savior of the world. How many people try to stop the Love of Yahweh from overtaking them in their lives? For whatever reason--usually some form of fear or a misunderstanding that can manifest in anger or resentment--they flee from the Love

The Seven Circles of Katalambano

Katalambano is a Greek word, which I found in my Bible and which you can examine more  here . Of course, Yahweh is all that there is, so some of the idea of overcoming needs to be rethought. What are we overcoming? We overcome the questioning (mentioned in the blog post "The Trinity of Faith") and answer yes and amen to Yahweh. Katalambano means two important things to me. Besides "overcome," it is also used to mean "lay hold of" or "attain." It is the word used in Philippians 3:12 when it talks about pressing on to "lay hold of" that for which Christ Yahshua "laid hold of" me. It is also used in John 1:5 where it talks about the light shining in the darkness and the darkness did not "overcome," or in some versions "comprehend" it. It is through katalambano that we grow our Promise, attain a new portion of it, complete our creation. Everything that exists is 3, 7, and 12, so you might call this the se
