"How to allow for spiritual things to be manifested in real time"
I like how you put this. I like to call it faith because of the terms simplicity/inclusively.
Reality can be viewed as such: the non-existence of a term future for the recognition of reality in the present (the faith practiced by seers and
mystics).
The cycle recognized by the senses/logical mind as cause and effect is wholly different from faith. The reason? Cause as an observable point or
entity does not, in actuality, necessitate a certain reaction among various possibilities resulting in a later state of affairs (future). Cause is
really a manipulation of the present and effect, the reaction, exists in the past since we as humans only poses freedom to respond physically in a
realm of finite possibilities...we loose degrees of freedom. And I do compare causes to literal controlling entities. Think of Merovingian from the
Matrix as an example.
In modern terms what we view, can actually observe through the sense, as the near future is in actuality the past in reality. This leads to problems
for us as humans, most obviously manipulation. For what is worse than a person under the delusion that they possess free-will? They are the ultimate
slaves who exist in a distorted reality, the matrix so to speak. And it is only through faith as Jesus knew the term, not as an intellectual concept
or fleeting subconscious thought, but as constituting life and reality, as existing equally in the spiritual world as the physical and abiding by both
their laws, can we rightly call ourselves human, free, and children of God. This is the only way we can assist God in fighting evil and it should be
the duty of every individual to seek such a state, if only for a time, and at the possible expense of infortunate ends.
"To allow for spiritual things to be manifested in real time"
Amen.
