The Book of Jasher shows Abraham studying under one of Noah's sons, and the Bible shows Abraham sending away his concubines, after God called him, when he was living in Ur with the Chaldeans. It may be true that the gifts that Abraham sent his concubines away with, unto the East, could have been parchments containing knowledge, just as Paul asked Timothy to bring his parchments, in the NT.

I have already said that one theme of Ephesians could be "Christ in us," and that one theme of Colossians could be "us in Christ." I also believe that the main themes of Galatians, Ephesians, Colossians, and Philippians may be as follows:

Colossians: contentment (*Love, the spirit)
Philippians: perseverance (*Faith, the heart)
Ephesians: promises (*Hope, the soul)
Galatians: freedom (*Reception, the body)

I believe that the very fact of the Limbic portion of the brain, being as the imagination, and having a large ratio between the known and unknown functions of the mind, points unto the Limbic portion to be the place of our conscience. The conscious mind in this, would be acting out as the mechanism of what we agree with, believe, and affirm. The conscious mind doing this, through comparing what it assesses with what is already known and found in the subconscious. As the conscious mind acts out what we come to believe, it does so through the imagination, which is a vessel, whereas the conscious mind is the performing mechanism(s). This, I believe, looks like man measuring something, as the sky's limits, which can seem boundless by sight, though it really isn't. Isaiah does have certain verses, in which God says that *He is the only one who can do things such as this,* even though this isn't even in the same range as the truly infinite universe, as God asked:

Isaiah 40:12-14
12 Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,
Measured heaven with a span
And calculated the dust of the earth in a measure?
Weighed the mountains in scales
And the hills in a balance?
13 Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD,
Or as His counselor has taught Him?
14 With whom did He take counsel, and who instructed Him,
And taught Him in the path of justice?
Who taught Him knowledge,
And showed Him the way of understanding?

The fact that man needs God to carry about nearly any task, whether small or large, in truth, gives emphasis to oneness and relationship, which serve as the foundation for these verses in this passage.

The formless and void, in meditation, can seem painful, leading out of meditation and the prospect of oneness, as darkness can manifest causing confusion and desolation, even though confusion and desolation are not found in the Spirit and truth of God. This is just like how the Spirit can prompt us regarding something, and how we can have guilt, though God is convicting, and not making people feel guilty, just as those who are His are not of the world, this putting John 16 into the right perspective, as it does say that the Spirit came to convict the world of guilt. Those who are God's are convicted and aren't imputed with blame, while it is those who do not believe in God who are convicted, and are a part of the world, receiving guilt then. Just as Jesus told the Pharisees that because He came, they had sin, as they were exposed, also saying that had He not come, they would have no sin. This topic is just like how God isn't simple, though He isn't complicated either, showing how we can feel guilty, even though God isn't making us feel guilty, because darkness is the one causing guilt; this also showing that just because we feel guilty about something, doesn't mean that God is or isn't prompting us. And this truth is proven in John 3, which says that the light exposed the darkness, and men loved darkness more than the light, because their deeds were evil, and they didn't want to come into the light, showing how they reject Jesus.

Comparing spiritual things with spiritual things, which is a sign of maturity, is addressed by Paul in the NT. In doing this one guards their heart, which has the issues of life, and thus in doing this, a person is being watchful in what they affirm, agree with, and believe. To not do so is to sacrifice in the clefts wickedly, coming away from oneness and relationship, and receiving a veil over the mind. The very existence of the ratio between what is known and what isn't known, as with the Limbic portion of the brain, gives a cleft, and Solomon gave the answer to how we were supposed to act from the clefts: "’Look to Him,’" just as Isaiah also confirms this. The little things, which are as the things we are to be faithful with, and thus also come to be entrusted with larger things, serve in being what is truly essential, having to do with one's heart's issues of life, which are the rivers of living water, the river of God, and the river of everlasting life and pleasure.

The speaking idol gives the easy way out, of having to assess life, having a cleft between what is known and what isn't; the speaking idol also acting as if it were true, righteous, and holy, having a type of godliness but denying it's power, through the hypocrisy of what is called 'tough love.' The speaking idol is literally what is established on earth that isn't fully established in the 3rd heaven, firstly in regards to His Promises, which are the first part of His covenant, as shown in Hebrews as to being His word, the second part being the truth of how He can not lie. The speaking idol therefore is religion, and attempts to over-ride the meditative time and spiritual comparisons between what is known and what is unknown, thus displaying the laziness and wickedness of the unprofitable servant, especially in the realm of the mind, this also exposing the veil of falsehood.
