A Supplement to The Spirit Universe a Christian View available at this Book Site
Introduction
In my book, “The Spirit Universe," I describe at length the
feasibility and characteristics of the Human Energy Field (HEF). In this post, I would like to continue that discussion by giving a brief analysis as to how the Human Energy Field interacts with God. I am not, however, going to discuss the reality of or evidence for the Human Energy Field, because all of that and more is discussed in the book.The HEF and God:
One of the primary characteristics of the HEF is that it contains and can transmit information about the person who owns the field. As a result, the HEF is the most basic way that a human being can communicate information to God. For Christians, the Holy Spirit is the communication bridge between a person and God. This is the meaning of praying in the “Spirit." That is to say, using the information contained in the HEF our human spirit can speak to God through the Holy Spirit. This communication does not have to be verbal or a product of our intellect. It can be driven by our strong feelings to such an extent that the communication is exclusively emotional, and we may not even understand what is being divulged. The result is that a person, through the HEF and Holy Spirit, can communicate beyond the limits of his consciousness. Often any verbalizations end up as groans and grunts.
He Knows Us.
Because the HEF contains all the information about our identity and lifestyle, nothing about ourselves can be hidden from God. Like a book containing the most intimate details of our lives, everything is exposed and communicated to God. Since our conscious mind may not be fully open to all the information in the HEF, God will truly know us better than we know ourselves. The wonder of all this is that He still accepts us and adopts us into His family, knowing all about us, once we accept Christ in our lives.
Two Way Communication:
While the HEF transmits information about us, it also can receive information. Once again, the Holy Spirit is the communication bridge between God and man, and so when God wants to tell us something, the Holy Spirit will transmit the information to our HEF. The information can be intellectual and perceived as an audible voice, or it can be felt as a strong emotion such as conviction or comfort. Understand that the information sent to us through the Holy Spirit can influence our HEF to produce visions, dreams, or “hunches." Very often one of the spiritual gifts mentioned in 2 Corinthians 12 is a key mechanism used to communicate. As a result, Christians can truly talk to God, hear God, speak prophetically, and have immersive visions from God.
HEF and the Spiritual Gifts
1 Corinthians 12:7-11(CEV) 7The Spirit has given each of us a special way of serving others. 8Some of us can speak with wisdom, while others can speak with knowledge, but these gifts come from the same Spirit. 9To others the Spirit has given great faith or the power to heal the sick 10or the power to work mighty miracles. Some of us are prophets, and some of us recognize when God’s Spirit is present. Others can speak different kinds of languages, and still others can tell what these languages mean. 11But it is the Spirit who does all this and decides which gifts to give to each of us.
When the Holy Spirit enables the HEF of a Christian, the result is a supernatural gifting that involves either the communication of information or power. When information is communicated the believer experiences the gifts of words of wisdom or knowledge, prophecy, tongues or interpretation of tongues, and discernment. When power is transmitted to the believer, he experiences the working of miracles, healings, and supernatural faith. Unlike psychic abilities, these gifts are totally dependent on the Holy Spirit because they originate from Him and are enabled through Him. Needless to say, the Holy Spirit “charges” the HEF with positive energy that is more potent and intense than anything that can be generated by the individual on his own. As a result, the spiritual gifts are much more energetic, accurate, and influential than anything drummed up through self-hypnosis or resulting from the activity of a spirit, even a demonic spirit.
