Time

Time is 3 dimensional.

The Bible can't speak directly about the higher aspects of time because it's too complicating, but it gives information on it.

The biblical phrase 'the fullness of time' is a reference to time as 3 dimensional.

I was thinking of a biblical metaphor for time as being the leaven that leavens the whole lump. Leaven turns the bread into 3 dimensions. That metaphor is about influence, but you can see how influence works in 3 dimensions of time. It goes backwards and forwards and fills a body of living time. 

Jesus came in the fullness of time, and it effected the past as well as the future. 

Recurrence happens in eternity (the 5th dimension of time). Not in the 4th dimension where we perceive time. It's a mistake to try to see recurrence in 4th dimension perception. The going around and around or revolution of lives. We don't need to struggle with that mental gymnastics. Because recurrence happens in eternity, the 5th dimension. The Work always spoke of the wheel of the 5th dimension. Recurrence. For us it's parallel time. This is how we can discern our own recurrence in this one life. 

In the 5th state of consciousness this is easier to see.

Understanding of time is powerful. It opens up new meaning in the Bible. 

For instance, it's always been ridiculous to speak of the conversion of the Jews. What, just the Jews who happen to be alive today? What about Jews who have lived and died in the past? See? Those Jews convert as well, in the 3 dimensions of time. Living time. It all, they all, still exist now. Not just Jews, but all human beings. 

Jesus' influence reaches all time. That leaven leavens the entire lump of all time. 

Jesus will return in the fullness of time. The Bible says things must happen. Until there is the fullness of time. Until all the elect are influenced and effectually called. In all living time, past, present, future. 

When Jesus returns we all die at the sound of the trump, and then we all see Him at the same time because we all will be in the spirit, and He will probably return where he was crucified. That's where all humans will be gathered in the spirit. As Arnold Murray use to say, if you can pinch yourself and it hurts you're still in a physical body, and it's not the real Christ. 

Time and influence seem to be closely related. When one person is converted it might effect people in time that we can't even see. This is how people groups that never had a chance to hear the Gospel are potentially saved. They still exist in 3 dimensional time and influence, that leaven, can reach them. Past, present, and future. 

Try to discern the fullness of time for the second coming. Islam has been quiet. Are they experiencing quiet conversion? Is influence from being in western Christian lands influencing all of Islam through all of time? They are in our world and witnessing the Satanic attack on us. Are they quietly thinking they don't want to be on the side of Satan? I sense they've gone quiet. Marxists and Satanists and pedophiles have dominated the stage. Is Islam internally reorienting? Saying, we don't want to be in alliance with all that evil. Perhaps? Not all Muslims, but maybe many? Just an example of what needs to happen in the fullness of time. And again, Muslims alive today influence Muslims in all of the past. All Muslims in 3 dimensional time. I'm just using Muslims as a single example.

Seeing God's plan fully is seeing in 3 dimensions of time.

When I recently read through the recurrence chapter of Fourth Way (chp 16) I jotted down two things: recurrence happens in eternity, meaning the 5th dimension of time, not the 4th; and we have to be in the third and fourth state of consciousness to really see recurrence.

Another thing I saw was that O., though he downplayed the use of the idea of recurrence vis-a-vis the Work system overall he still came across as saying it was very big. 

The 6th dimension of time is development of being. 

Remember that time diagram I put together. It's valuable. 

But seeing time in 3 dimensions in history is something new altogether. Everything exists in its time. Until time is no more. I.e. until the harvest. 

Think of this... The moment of death and birth exist in one's living time just as a wedding or a college graduation exist in living time. But it's still one death, just as it's (ideally) one marriage. 

Geography plays a role in all this. Mt. Zion has echoes of the Grail mountain (or vice versa). Sort of physical points where there is a going out and a coming back in involving influence. Sort of summits, or crown points of time.
