Baptism Of The Holy Spirit

What was christian baptism supposed to mean originally? Was it just a process of turning a dry sinner into a wet sinner? I think this is what modern christians insinuate when they speak of a it as a mere symbol that demonstrate to the world that one has crossed over and is now a member of another gang of beleivers. So they unwittingly admit that baptism is just a meaningless gesture. I don't think so! They must have lost a deep, esoteric meaning of babtism that was known to the original gnostics. Why take all the trouble to wet yourself in cold water to merely show that you are now a christian?When Nahman went to prophet Elisha for an healing work, Elisha never unlished a majic wand such as 'be healed'. He told Nahman to go to river Jordan and dip himself in and out seven times! This looked like just a mockery! I mean do this bald headed guy think that I never take bath in my home? What the hell do the water in river Jordan has? Of course the explanation a contemporary christian offers fo why Elisha opted to send Nahman to river jordan is absurd. That is why they don't understand the original meaning of baptism. The modern christian picture of God is an unintelligible being who can absurdly do everything, including colliding unstopable stones against immovable walls. Why then should such a being offer instructions to you exept just to test your faith? Allright that is it 'testing faith' is the explain it all term for the whatever motive behind every instruction in the bible. God sits somewhere in a throne watching for those who mess with the rules. The rules themselves have no meaning on their own. God just want to see if you are a rude guy or not!Similarly, in the account of genesis, we are told of a being who was alone in a place called nowhere speaking to the void. In modern christianity, miracles are ontological absurdities. It is this hard to swallow, nonsensical doctrines that modern christian philosophers as William Lane Graig are championing. Then they wonder why church buildings are being sold to be used for bars, prostitutions etc. They wonder why spiders are spinning their nets, and fungi is growing in church seats. Bible writers knew better. The genesis account is clear. By the time God was uttering commands, the heavens, the earth and the waters were already there only that they were formless, dark and empty. The bible doesn't tell us how God created the heavens and the earth. It stops at declaring that he did it.The picture of Yahweh is very clear and is not what christians teach. It is clearly shown when Moses wanted to see Yahweh. He gave him instructions. The instructions were not merely to test Moses's faith. They were not mere rituals with only a symbolic meaning. Yahweh was hiding in a place Moses could see him!! Yahweh was NOT an all pervading, nonsensical nothing that only amounts to an impotent, abstract concept. He was enthroned somewhere with an all pervading 'aura' termed Holy Spirit. The spirit of Yahweh is not homogenius everywhere at every time. It manifests as angels in other places.What then is the spirit? Modern philosophy says what it is not, i.e 'not matter'. This was not the original meaning of the word 'spirit'. First of all the word 'spirit' resorted to an entity and not an abstract concept. Originally, spirit was coined from 'Ruach' which means wind!Q:Just wind?A:Yep!:)Modern man nolonger find THINGS that sexy. He waves nonsensical abstract concepts all the day! To make people gawk, you have to mension waves, mind, consciousness, nothingness, dimensions, bla bla bla. Such things as stones, water, air soil? Mmh mmh mmh,..., no they are too dry! They seek 'prove' for spirit and deny everything that they see or that come to the mind as to be the spirit! The 'search for truth' is an endless chase after one's own shadow. But spirit is wind!! It is too simple for the proud mind to discern!The ancient men divided things into 4 categories; fire, air, eath and water. Out of these, all things came. The spirit belongs to the 'air' category of things. Air is a good analogy in this way: Supposing you somehow donnot feel the air rush past your skin. Then you will only see its effect out there. You will see trees sway, float etc. Unless you posit an invisible thing that exist out there such as 'wind', the world would work in an absurd way! That was why jesus told Nichodemus:"The wind blows wherever it please, you hear it sound but you cannot tell where it is comming from nor where it is going to. The same is true for everyone born of spirit and water"In physcics, air is an example of a field with an underlieing scalar field. Mathematically, air more or less behave like Higgs Field! It is more than a coincidence that higs is termed 'God particle' there is a high probability that we have found what ancient men termed 'Ruach' or 'prana' etc. Baptism is a full imersion. Even if we endorse the catholic verson of pouring the water to the top of your head, that would be similar to the case where the fire of kundalini entres the body from the head. Then baptism of the holy spirit and fire would be the real fire of kundalini. In the full imersion version, we have to consider the quantum field that pervades everywhere such as the higgs field.The spirit of God often comes and momentarily dwell in water! To think that it is equaly everywhere is misleading! It is more like electricity that can be tapped more by appropriate means. So in many cases, we gotta get imerced at the right time!! Muslims are thought to keep washing their heads as they pray. Remember also the case of the pool of siloam where the spirit of God came and stir the water. The water then aquired healing abilities. These are not ontological absurdities. To understand it even in physics, we have only to change how we understand thermodynamics abit. A Bose-Einstein condensate is near to becoming one such 'water of life'. Then the best one in the bible is genesis 1:1 where the spirit of God was said to hover upon the waters. It is this teaching that is lacking in christian baptism!We have seen that the important property of water and air that earned them the title 'spirit' is fluidity. This enables it to clean, replenish and connect different things. In modern physics, we have come to know of even more subtle fluids such as electromagnetic fields etc. In ancient times, people were contended with real things that the know they existed and they identified them as spirit. Similarly, we should embrace the quantum field as the spirit! It is endowed with even far more amazing properties than the wind. It is intelligent and can superimpose layers of realms. Our understanding of matter has improved. As a ripple in the quantum field, several waves can be superimposed on top of one another akin to how radio waves from different stations can be superimposed in the same space. We see one realm in myriads of others that are quantum superimposed on each other like the Schrodinger cats. The kingdom of God that is within, that Jesus talked of is nowadays understandable. We are nolonger ignorant of the 'how' of multidimensional reality. Our level of understanding has expanded.
