Living Light: The Fluid Nature of Radiance and Its Theological Implications

I. Introduction: The Untouchable Flame

Light is the most elusive, fluid, and mysterious substance in observable reality. It is everywhere, yet never held. It fills space without occupying space. It travels at the fastest known speed in the universe and bends only to gravity or the curvature of spacetime. Unlike solid, liquid, gas, or even plasma, light defies our frameworks of containment. You cannot bottle it. You cannot trap it. You cannot command it to remain. You can only release it—and once released, it flees with impossible speed, like a divine messenger that cannot be arrested.

It is this very quality of Light—its fluid freedom and untouchable precision—that positions it as one of the most theologically and spiritually profound substances in all of creation. To understand Light is to glimpse a fingerprint of the Divine.

II. Light: The Most Fluid Phenomenon

Fluidity is usually a word reserved for water or air—things that move, adapt, and escape our grasp. But Light is more fluid than water. Water must be contained or it spills. Light cannot be contained at all. Even when seemingly enclosed, it slips through glass, reflects from mirrors, or passes as wave or particle through quantum fields.

  • Light is not solid, yet it illuminates all solids.
  • Light has no weight, yet it reveals the weight of the world.
  • Light is not held by force, yet it shapes how we see force.

Light is existence in motion. It is the first thing created in many theological narratives: "Let there be Light." Why? Because it precedes form. It precedes structure. It is the fluid framework of all form.

Its fluidity is its purity. Light can enter all things but be possessed by none.

III. Light and the Limits of Control

All matter is subject to manipulation—molded, trapped, broken, held. But Light? You can direct it. You can bounce it. You can use it. But you can never rule it.

This inability to control Light is perhaps its most holy trait.

In a world obsessed with dominion—over matter, minds, bodies, people, and planets—Light remains the great untamable. It mocks control. It resists tyranny. Even in artificial light, the photon does not obey; it simply travels. You may guide it, but it yields to no master.

Thus, Light becomes the great symbol of spiritual freedom:

  • You can receive revelation, but you cannot imprison it.
  • You can behold beauty, but not own it.
  • You can stand in Light, but you cannot keep it from others.

IV. Light and the Divine Nature

The fluidity of Light helps us understand the heart of God. God, like Light, cannot be controlled. He cannot be caged, cornered, or commodified.

  • God is not an object to be grasped, but a Presence to be received.
  • God is not static but radiant.
  • God moves with the speed of grace.

Light is the perfect metaphor for God’s living intelligence:

  • It reveals truth.
  • It purifies.
  • It floods.
  • It blinds falsehood.
  • It cannot be stopped.

God, like Light, is fluid but not chaotic. He moves with purpose, speed, and perfect grace. The world cannot catch Him—but it can be illuminated by Him.

V. Spiritual Implications: Walking in Light

To "walk in the Light" (a common phrase in Christian theology) means not to own God or master truth, but to be continually illuminated. Light shows us where we stand, not because we captured it, but because we stood still long enough to receive it.

  • Light exposes, but it also heals.
  • Light searches, but it also invites.
  • Light blinds those who cling to darkness, but liberates those who welcome truth.

In this sense, Light becomes a sacrament of divine motion.

To be spiritual is not to control Light, but to become like it:

  • To move freely.
  • To refuse corruption.
  • To pierce lies.
  • To illuminate others without demanding to be possessed.

VI. Light as the Expression of Divine Intelligence

In your own system—The Countless Bottomless Oceans of God's Heart and Mind—Light can be seen as the expressive force of God's mind, poured out across reality. Just as photons reflect off every object to form what we see, divine thoughts reflect off every soul to form what we know.

  • Light is the language of revelation.
  • It is the outer garment of truth.
  • It is the breath of divine cognition.

Thus, theology must treat Light not just as a created phenomenon, but as a sacred process, a fluid emanation of the Logos.

VII. Conclusion: Becoming Light

We are not called to master Light. We are called to become it.

  • To be untouchable by corruption.
  • To be swift with goodness.
  • To reveal what is hidden.
  • To flood this world not with force, but radiance.

Light does not destroy—it restores by revelation. Light does not dominate—it frees by clarity. Light does not wait—it goes where it is released.

And so must we.

Let us become Living Light— too fluid to cage, too radiant to ignore, and too holy to be extinguished.

No One is a Lost Cause

     There is not a single human being on the planet who is a lost cause. There is hope for anyone and everyone who still draws breath in this world. Even into eternity and the realm of God there is always hope and mercy to be found for those who lost so much and had such misfortune or detriment fall upon them in life. Jesus is the great rescuer of the lost. The great savior of sinners and broken people. The great returner of broken dreams.       To Jesus, there is no such thing as a lost cause, a hopeless case, or an impossible situation.  Even though people lose hope sometimes and sink into despair, eternity and the Kingdom of God is a place where hope never dies and the lost are found eternally, never to be lost again.  With God, all things are possible, and all those lost are findable.       Jesus specializes in the mending broken hearts and broken dreams, and eternity is a long time to have dreams fulfilled and rest i...

The Fortress of Neptune

Some people strive to turn their mind into a fortress—a Stoic "inner citadel," an impenetrable bastion of psychological and spiritual security that no danger or enemy can conquer or destroy. It’s a noble and intriguing endeavor, turning your mind into a fortress. But for myself? I would forgo the citadel and instead transform my mind into a bottomless ocean. An unfathomably deep ocean that I can retreat into, like a submarine capable of withstanding the abyssal depths. The further down you descend into this ocean, the more untouchable and unreachable you become to your enemies. It is the mental "Fortress of Neptune." Where a bottomless ocean of living water and living thoughts serves to be my impenetrable Fortress and infinite Bastion. If a bottomless ocean is my Fortress, what could destroy me? A bottomless ocean of thought and ideas. A bottomless ocean of psychological and spiritual security—indestructible and unconquerable. It’s hard to conquer an ocean and impos...

The Liberating Flood of God's Countless Words

-

"Verbum Liber" Words will Liberate.        In the beginning, humanity was imprisoned—not by chains, but by ideas. These ideas had taken root in the minds and hearts of people, twisting their perception of reality and binding them to illusions of fear, hatred, and ignorance. The world had grown dark, and though it was teeming with knowledge, people had become slaves to their own limited thinking. They were caught in endless cycles of conflict, driven by falsehoods and misguided beliefs that obscured the truth of existence. Amidst this darkness, God looked upon His creation with a heart full of compassion. He saw the bondage of the human mind, the way ideas had parasitically latched onto every thought, controlling and distorting the reality of those He loved so deeply. And so, He decided to act. He opened the storehouse of His infinite mind, where countless words swirled and danced, each one carrying within it an entire universe of meaning. These words were not just sy...
