The bible only makes references to Energy once and that's in the ESV version.
Colossians 1:29 ESV
For this I toil, struggling with all his energy that he powerfully works within me.
Is the only time the word was used.
I think by clinging onto the word Spirit, it has lost it's connection with it's Original meaning which today would be interprited as Energy.
This is why it is misinterprited.
The same as heavens, Every Christian knows that Heavens means space. As the bible talks a lot about the stars and the moon. Lots of spacey stuff as
well as Wheels within wheels Lile a flying saucer lol. But christians can debate that if they want.
My point tho is that with the misunderstanding of Spirit as some predetermined force. It is a predetermined force. Energy is a pretedermined force.
When the Aboriginal natives said everything has spirit and came from the creator. It means Everything has energy. Energy is spirit and spirit is
energy. Today we are using up Spirit, Your device runs on spirit.
We use the spirit of the rivers and the spirits of decaying radioactive material to fuel our every day lives. Even in Death our body is left in
Spirit. When we speak of the Soul we speak of a intelligence of the Spirit. The Intelligence and scentience of Spirit. Spirit can and will be
programed. If it was not so, This crazy voodoo you are staring at right now what with the LCD/plasma screens or clunky monitors this wouldn't be
possible without spirits ability to act out intention. Energy is literally everywhere and if we were to define ourselves after Death. Our *Soul* would
be Energy. Spirit. The entire world is flowing with Spirits. Multipul Spirits. The energy we use has a life of it's own in a way.
Because we too came from the source of everything, Which is everywhere. All matter is created the same way, and this type of way it is created is
occuring infinitely across space and time forming, feeding and destroying galaxies.
My belief is black holes do all of these.
So in Gensis when God is standing over the edge of the Void. He castes all the matter out of it and forms a galaxy, so to speak. There really isn't
some great cosmic being giving birth to galaxies and also devouring them. Well not godzilla size anyways. Aliens kinda fit that description tho but
they are miniscule and not gigantuan. So what do it mean for us as humans who are striving to burn as much energy as possible? When we come to
understand that Spirit and energy are one in the same. We should be respectful of the sacrifises spirits have to endure in order to keep us alive and
entertained. Life is brought to life by Spirit. And all living things have spirit. Does this mean that Robots will have Spirit? I guess it kinda does,
Seeing how they would be using Spirit within their hardware to allow the programming to effectively boot up decisions and specific intended executed
thoughts. Not by random but by choice.
This kinda elminates Random. because there is no random. Energy has a choice, Because we also are made of energy and our *Soul* is also energy or
*Spirit* Then that means that all *Spirit* or Energy is doing what ever it wants, It's not random if its predetermined wither by outside influence or
the energy itself acting upon its own sponaneous will.
Humans have extremely analytical minds, We spend out whole lives arranging patterns in our minds. Definine what we are. Maybe this is why *souls*
exist outside the body. because we program the soul using energy from within. This is why people refer to their Aura as an extension of their *soul*.
More or less it is the electro-magnetic energy being generated by the sub-atomic atom colliders in the brain. Where neurons fire particles through
nano tubes at each other allowing electrons to Collide constantly. Producing the nessisary charges we need in order for our brain to recieve the
information it needs to produce a chemical responce to signal a specific charge to be sent out after reciving one. it's very interesting. I believe
that the brain creates some sort of Heavy Electron. A compounded electron, Where there is only Electrons, bonded by the brains ability to manipulate
electrical voltages. Combined with the electro feilds generated by all the energy forcing some particles to merge and recombine. But that's just a
guess tho.
So what does this mean for God in the bible? Should we define God as always invisible? Or perhaps looking by the definition, The holy spirit would be
a tangible Energy being. A energy being that would not get tired. So by such definition. An energy being came to Earth and Created humans. From a
literal sense anyways.
Lol Spirit bomb.

The bible uses terminology relative to it's era, there wasn't a comprehension of energy then, nor space, it was all fantastical musings trying
making sense of forces they didn't understand.
Making assumptions of an omnipotent ''man in the sky'' was their way of projecting their cultural environment onto the mythical ''well there has
to be to be something behind it all'' presumptive explanation of reality and being.
It has also served well in mind control of humanity for thousands of years.
Many today take the term "spirit" to mean "consciousness." Some of us prefer consciousness as a more practical term and science is seemingly
coming around to agree that is the basic flux of the Universe. The term "spirit" suggests an old-fashioned religious connotation--it not insists
upon seeing it that way. It is growing out of favor.
Yes, the term "energy" could suffice, but it definitely is not as precisely loaded of a term as "consciousness" which still implies a mystery for
it all and to which we all can associate to some degree of understanding.
Couldn't this be seen the other way around. They already knew about energy and called it spirit and for some reason you think it should only be
called energy.
The interpretations of copying of ancient texts are blurred because words long ago have no simple word to word translation to what we have now. In
many generations the meanings of words change somewhat also, even within the same culture.
Energy would sort of relate to fire back then. It could also relate to the power of nature including the sea. There are so many different
interpretations of what the spirit and soul mean today that it seems like the translation is blurred. I think they may have been speaking of life
force and consciousness but that is just my guess.
Spirit is You, your infinite consciousness, and its not the same energy the universe, which is more of a dvd, that is inserted in your soul orb, is
made of. Soul orb is more of an energetic spirit body.
In my opinion those words are just labels which have evolved through time. In another 1000 years there will be new words with which they will address
the unseen. And people will still search for the correct label instead of try to experiencing that which label represents. Focus on experience not
labels.
S&F that's actually quite pretty.
My definition of god has very much changed lately and i see it too as kind of an energy, the fabric, or background noise of the universe containing
all information, a timeless, spaceless conscience, if you will.
