Co-Reality

[TonyChanYT]

On the one hand, horizontally, Ezra 7:

18 you and your fellow Israelites may then do whatever seems best with the rest of the silver and gold,

On the other hand, vertically:

in accordance with the will of your God.

There are two perspectives: a human perspective and a divine perspective. Both are true in this case.

The vertical realm interacts with or H5060-touches the horizontal realm. Inversely, the horizontal realm also affects the verticle. E.g, after Jesus died, the Paraclete Indwelling Spirit was released.

Under the general framework of first-order logic, I propose the Co-Reality (or Dual Reality) Model to account for the paradoxes/contradictions between the vertical and horizontal perspectives:

• Whose idea was it to send the spies to scout the promised land?
• God was patient with vessels of wrath, PREPARED for destruction
• Now eagerly DESIRE the greater gifts
• Were the waters of the Red Sea parted instantly?
• Co-reality when Elisha was surrounded by Aramean soldiers
• Was the first Passover unleavened bread ordered by God or forced upon the Israelites?
• Who hardened Pharoah's heart?
• Whose idea was it that David called for a census?
• HE/THEY gathered them together into a place called Armageddon
• NO ONE ever spoke the way this man does
• How old is the earth?
• Adam, Eve, and evolution
• Faith and works are logically equivalent
• Do we choose to repent?
• God has consigned ALL to disobedience
• Which Comes First: Faith or Repentance?
• Limited Negatives: Making Sense of How Jesus Speaks
• Which is EASIER, to say vertically this or to say horizontally that?

Limited Negatives often work with Co-Reality.

It seems a bit random (gifts, red sea; Jesus, how old is the earth).

What are you trying to get at? That there are no contradictions, given the right perspective?

Certainly God has something to do with everything that happens on earth and in the universe. He oversees the human will, as well. But I wouldn't say this is a paradox. For God to dictate human will is a matter of God making His choice 1st, and then leaving alternatives for choices that men can make.
