Scientists are looking for what they call "the God particle." They hope to find evidence of it by using the new four-billion dollar Large Hadron Collider that spans the French-Swiss border. They are baffled why positive protons cling together in the nucleus of atoms when like charges are supposed to fly apart! One theory is that there must be "atomic glue" holding them together.
Many scientists have settled on the Big Bang Theory to explain how the universe began, but by the laws of physics all matter that is hurling out through space from that initial source should be slowing down, just as anything moving slows down eventually unless more energy is applied to keep it going. The galaxies are not slowing down; they are speeding up! To explain that, they came up with "dark matter," and "dark energy," which they cannot see. The further they investigate the universe, the more they are confronted with Powers that they cannot explain or see, and this flies in the face of empirical science and its methods.
Of Jesus John wrote, "Without Him was nothing made that was made" (see John 1:1-4). Paul wrote to the Colossians, "For it was in Him that all things were created, in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, whether thrones, dominions, rulers, or authorities; all things were created and exist through Him [by His service, intervention] and in and for Him. And He Himself existed before all things, and in Him all things consist (cohere, are held together)." (Colossians 1:16-17 AMP- emphasis added)
Some time back a scientist quipped, "We for many years have been struggling up this mountain of scientific discovery and I fear that as we get to and peak over the top, we will see the theologians that have been up there all along." Jesus is God's change agent, His all present Spirit in creation. All the universe was made by Him alone. By Him it all holds together. Jesus is the "atomic glue" they are looking for. He is God's Light that shines throughout the universe and into the hearts of every man who believes in Him. He is God's "Light Energy" and "Light Matter."
By His influence everything is accelerating to a close, the end of this era of God's eternal plan to make room for the next phase of His eternity. "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our God" a new Jerusalem, a new Zion. John reported, "And I saw no temple in it: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it" (Revelation 21:22 KJ2000). John continued, "And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God is its light, and the Lamb is its lamp" (Revelation 21:23 KJ2000).
He is the All in all. What a great God we have and what a great salvation we have been called into as we live and move and have our being in the Son!
