The Future For Christianity

A divine, dimino transition

A divine dimino transition siggests that the birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ ensures the future of true Christianity

"You shall know the Truth and the Truth shall set you free."

There are three distinct times when the life of Jesus Christ appears to dimino or go through a transition from non-existence to existence. These include the time of His birth, after His resurrection when He appears to Mary and some of His disciples and later, when He re-appears to humankind throughout the course of history

The dimino stands, while a domino would fall. Jesus said, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life." Either that statement is true or it is not true. If it is true, then Jesus may be demonstrating a dimino personality, or as being someone who comes into being and stands the test of time. He claims to personify the Truth; we know that Truth stands the test of time.

Dimino, may be broken down into the words di suggesting twice, twofold or double which appears to suggest a double meaning of some kind. Mino in an earlier usage goes back to the phrase "to be or not to be". There are two distinct possibilities here, either yes or no to being or existence.

Over the course of history, humankind has taken a stand on both sides. Some accept the birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ as an unconditional reality; others refute this, in total. Of course, there are those who take a stand somewhere in between.

For a brief moment, taking the side of the birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ as being an unconditional reality, look further into the dimino effect that is demonstrated.

Up to the moment of His birth, He appeared to be in a state of non-existence. There are those who will state that He pre-existed as the Word with God. When He was born, it was apparent to some of humankind that He came into existence. This is the first dimino scenario.

Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross and His existence appeared to come to an end, at that point in time, except for the fact that He was resurrected. The purpose of His birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension was to ensure the forgiveness for the sins of humankind. After His resurrection, He appeared to Mary and some of His disciples. Again, it would seem that He has gone through a dimino transition from non-existence to existence.

Jesus Christ ascended into Heaven, where He was seated at the right hand of God the Father.

Time and time again, throughout the course of history, He has re-appeared to various individuals. This is the third transition from non-existence to existence. Or, is this all part of one greater phenomenon which includes all three of the other scenarios? Is there some kind of a larger, divine dimino phenomenon that includes the other three stages of transition? What appears to be happening is some kind of a spiraling dimino effect with each plateau of existence; every appearance seems to be on a spiritually higher level.

Of course, there are always going to be the atheists who refute His reality and the agnostics who say, yes, no or maybe so, in a skeptical light. The next step up this ladder might be those who suggest that God exists, but they have no actual knowledge or awareness of the reality of Jesus Christ. On a still higher step, there are those who believe in Jesus Christ as a man, but assign less than a divine person role to Him. Above that would be those who perceive Jesus Christ, in His role as Lord and Savior of humankind. On still a higher step would be those who perceive the reality of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

It is on that highest step where one begins to see the true nature of Jesus Christ, revealed in the mystery of the Trinity. On this plateau, one begins to see the possibility of the divine realm being a reality, as well.

True Christians, who know the Truth as Jesus Christ personified, just as He claimed, know that the future of true Christianity is certain. The Divine dimino transition reveals this to be true. Truth stands the test of time and eternity.
