God can't abide sin, he can't look on it. Yet in order for free will to be a possibility, sin has to be possible. How does a perfectly pure and righteous God create a world where evil exists? He became sin for us.
Light and Darkness
On rare occasions we encounter someone who has an inkling of what we're doing, harmonizing science with the Bible, and they ask an intelligent question about it. The intelligent question was this:
Light = Good; Darkness = Evil
The parallels between light and good vs. darkness and evil are stated throughout scripture. Isaiah laments people who try to make you believe that good is evil and evil is good, and who put darkness for light.
The Lamb of God
Why was the lamb slain at the foundation of the world? So that light could become darkness, good could become evil, the sinless could become sin, and we could have sentient life with free will.
The Father of Lights
The phrase "the father of lights," is sweet and poetic. It's spiritually accurate in identifying two roles of God the Father. It's also accurate physics.
Deductive Reasoning
It's not a good idea to pull Bible passages out of context because we've decided what we want them to mean and then proclaim that we have some new doctrine. That's inductive reasoning, or eisegesis.
Spiritual Separation
Separation is a scriptural doctrine which is generally thought of in terms of Christians holding themselves apart from the rest of the world and avoiding worldly distraction which can lead us into sin. There's more to it than that.
The Universe is Made From the Components of Water
Axiom I is "The Universe is Made From the Components of Water." We can deduce Principle I from the following physical evidence, empirical observations or established theories which are part of Axiom I.
Gravitational Lensing
We observe the gravity of the sun causing light from stars to bend. It's called gravitational lensing. This shows that light has properties of both waves and particles, but everything is energy when it comes right down to it.
The Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
The Bible accounts for the Big Bang nucleosynthesis. Popular science (SciPop) grudgingly arrived at this conclusion but it has no cause for it or source for the material used. The Bible gives us both.
