Scripture and alchemy began to read as two archives of the same world. Once the evidence began to come into focus, the rejected stone looked increasingly like the cornerstone of reality.
I caught a hint of this when I came across the stones in Aaron’s Breastplate in Exodus. I started looking at identifying the stones and it struck me that it was possible that these stones contained the minerals within the human body. To me it looked and felt like a key, almost like an ingredient list. Why did I go there? I felt called through a weird circuitous channel, starting with memories of my 5 year old self fixated on a page in a reference book with a single page on gem stones. Not studying. Just noticing things over time until something whispers ‘just go and look’. And when the power of discovery gets overwhelming, I run my wrists under cold water to reregulate my nervous system 🤭
Just watch out for paranoia. I think it’s an indicator something isn’t right or ready to share. Honour it. And you couldn’t stop me reading at this point unless you stopped writing 🤣
I’m extremely interested in how mercury, is mercury an element involved in this puzzle? Thx for sharing and informing us all. I’m rather astonished at the implications.
Purpose. Why did God make the world? One explanation I have seen said the God made the world as a present for his Son.
As Entropy (correctly defined as an increase in available microstates) increases over time due to the wonders of the "organic chemistry' atom, Carbon, more and more amazing structures and life-forms appear. The universe is a kaleidoscope!
I love this thesis: "If the Earth is the product of intelligence, then coherence, efficiency, and self-perpetuation should be visible in its most fundamental systems." And I love how you're crossing the boundaries of all the "languages" you're decoding to open the wisdom in each. Many languages / one reality, as you say. You keep expanding my own concepts - thank you! -P.S. The graphics you're creating are beautiful!-
It's encouraging to see all the contributors responding in helpful ways and encouraging Dr. Kory in "the way". God has given each of us talents, He encourages righteousness, even Christ said "thy will be done". Let us all continue to strive for those goals.
Yes God created the heavens and the earth! I had hoped at some point your eyes would be opened. I also have to thank you for all your information during Covid (which probably saved my dad and husband) and I loved your books on Ivermectin and Chlorine Dioxide!
Thank you for this post using AI to connect what the human brain cannot adequately hold. My internationally known chemistry professor father & his published theology professor brother had life long discussions regarding “by chance” vs. “by design”. Both were in church every Sunday because of their strong faith in Jesus Christ. Your line about science requiring testable methodology reminded me of Dad’s dinner table mini chemistry lectures! Oh how I miss him & wish I could forward this post. Not necessary as he truly has all the answers now. Of that I’m blessedly assured.
Enjoying the articles. Scripture is multilevel. God reveals more and more through the Holy Spirit as we pursue Him. It's helpful to remember that Christ is preeminent in all things, like Psalm 118:22. But, in my spirit, I also feel that this scripture speaks of Freemasonry - and no doubt even deeper revelation. The Freemasons, which seem to be a very large group, idolize alchemy over Jesus. They claim a "secret" knowledge. After reading God's Word I'm certain that's a position, a belief, that comes from a different spirit. The bible is amazingly supernatural and God loves to do things different every time to avoid man from striving to "market" who He is. He loves when we seek Him out and I'm certain He works through all to reveal how things work in the earth to those who want to go deeper with Him. I hope He reveals Himself to you as you go through this journey.
If you have followed this series, although I did not state it as a conclusion, but I believe few truly understand the nature and intent of alchemy. It was about purification and renewal and sought the divine, or received the divine.. the real alchemists, like Eudoxus, purposely hid their knowledge, not to keep it secret in a malevolent way but rather becuase because it was powerful and could be misused by those without a humble devotion to God, plus alchemy was dangerous. I know little of the Freemasons, but I would guarantee that they understand little of what it was really about, and are instead "lost in the labyrinth" of alchemy, they probably think it was about transmutation or something, or claim it for something other than its intended goal
Hey Doc. You’re getting great at connecting the dots. WRT the Bible may I suggest a literal not theological translation of it to draw from. It reads differently more like an historical account aligning with other accounts from disparate cultures. MAURO BIGLINO has done such translation from Hebrew. His path as a translation expert has parallels to your path as a medical expert in how you both are treated by the establishment.
I hesitated to say this—but this is blasphemy. As others clearly stated, Jesus Christ, the eternal God, the Creator and Sustainer of all things— IS the Chief Cornerstone. Please don’t miss Him in the study of His own creation. He alone must be worshipped. ALL have sinned, and have come short of the glory of God. But…..God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, to become the Substitute for all who will repent and put their trust in Christ as Savior. With all due respect, THIS is what everyone should make their life’s study.
You and several others have cited cheap Protestant sayings in immense self-righteous ignorance. It has me shaking my fists in fury--and I learned from Emerald Echo that this kind of anger means one's heart values have been trampled upon. The value here is REASON, the ability to think. Many Protestants are more humble than this, but many write similar platitudes all over the web, making it look like you have to be an IDIOT to be Christian. You will agree that is absurd.
I just watched a video about Schopenhauer's idea that many people cannot be reasoned with and how to conquer them. The narrator said that trying to teach advanced thinking to someone like you is like trying to download a computer operating system unto a typewriter.
I disagree. You CAN be taught how to think, step by step. We need to study how this is done. A basic aspect of philosophy and reason is Comparison weighing one item against another to decide what is most likely.
You have done this in the most important subject of all--Jesus IS Lord, God, and Savior.
If you read my post, I carefully stated that the cornerstone is traditionally understood as referring to Jesus, and that I was instead using the metaphor for something more foundational - belief in God as our Creator
I’m humbled for your response Dr Kory. With all due respect I did understand your intent. However, to use Christ as a “metaphor” as such is, at minimum, confusing, given the definition of what a metaphor is. BTW….Thanks ever so much for all your sacrificial and investigative work during cv, I was one who benefited immensely.
If you read my post, I carefully stated that the cornerstone is traditionally understood as referring to Jesus, and that I was instead using the metaphor for something more foundational - a belief in God as our Creator
Yes, I did read it. You are still missing, I think, that Jesus is part of the godhead; Father, Son and Spirit and that He is called the Creator. In the verses below, from John 1, the Word is Jesus.
"1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 All things were created through him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 That light shines in the darkness, and yet the darkness did not overcome it.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify about the light, so that all might believe through him 8 He was not the light, but he came to testify about the light. 9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was created through him, and yet the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. 12 But to all who did receive him, he gave them the right to be children of God, to those who believe in his name, 13 who were born, not of natural descent, or of the will of the flesh, or of the will of man, but of God.
14 The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 John testified concerning him and exclaimed, “This was the one of whom I said, ‘The one coming after me ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.’” 16 Indeed, we have all received grace upon grace from his fullness, 17 for the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God. The one and only Son, who is himself God and is at the Father’s side]—he has revealed him."
I love this additional passage. Isaiah 55:11 "So my word that comes from my mouth
will not return to me empty, but it will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I send it to do." I am not attacking you, I am very happy that you are reading scripture. I am praying that God's Holy Spirit will reveal Truth to you. God bless you.
If you read my post, I carefully stated that the cornerstone is traditionally understood as referring to Jesus, and that I was instead using the metaphor for something more foundational - belief in God.
Well done, Doc... I see progress. Yet there is more. The realization that EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED, interwoven, by design, is a giant step forward. The cornerstone, Jesus Christ, is the cornerstone laid in Sion, where we came from, and where we are going, soon. By Him were all things made that were made, and nothing that was made, was made without Him. Faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to the truth of all things, and the only way back to God. I hope you continue to experience the epiphanies of enlightenment, and come to see Jesus as your personal mentor. He is the Savior of all who accept Him. Philosophy and alchemy have no place in the world of light and truth. Christianity is the study and embracing of all that is true, despite what the truth-hating nay-sayers assert, and the Bible should be meditated upon, studied, and absorbed daily, along with prayer... We can communicate with God. That is how we are designed, and God wants us to communicate with Him. That is how He guides us into the truth. I've determined that 'depression' is really a sickness caused by separation from God. Breaking God's rules CAUSES THAT SEPARATION. Following every commandment, precept, law, statute and judgement described in the Bible IS THE ROAD TO HEALTH, FREEDOM, LIBERTY, JOY AND PEACE. Faith in Jesus renders one immortal. The New Testament fulfills the Old Testament... and both need to be assimilated, and read as if you were a judge hearing witnesses describing the same events. The truth is established in the testimony of two, three or more witnesses. Thus, all of the Bible is read, compared, weighed, and considered when establishing what it says, as if you were a judge. Literally, the Bible says it all. Unfortunately, many have not come to understand this fact, at least not yet. That is the reason for so much trouble in the world. The world, as we know it will end shortly, and the Cornerstone laid in Sion will literally arrive here to save us who believe in and love the truth of everything. Glory is to be given to God, as it is appropriate to worship our Creator, who seeks out those who worship Him in truth and sincerity. God gives understanding to His people, never to the wicked.
What a journey. As a retired biologist and also a love of God I look forward to more of your writing . Mankind is impressed with itself. I am not. Though time passes snd new inventions etc mankind stays yhe same and therefore faces the same problems over and over in history. I see a.pyramid. that was astonishing at that time. Now there is the digital world . Frankly I less impressed with that. Man will screw that up to. Which is different from let's say the pyramids. But it will and already has done harm. Back to topic.i would not be surprised if everything that we need to know is already given to us. So I await your next segment. I have come to believe the answers are there. Plants do cure people snd keep them healthy. Then man did something really stupid. Gee let's find the people eho are using g ants and are gealthy and direct yhe. Til we find thr chemical we can reproduce and patent and we will call them pharmecruticals. They will cost more and have lots of side affects and not work as well as the plants etc that we examined that have been used thruout time. We can charge lots of money and tells lies about how.much the drugs are good for us. We won't cure any chronic illness. Man hasn't. But then again that wasn't the goal. Yea that was a hard one for.me to learn. OK that's enough. My saying...nothing really changes because man never changes. So looking forward to what's next. I always found it hard to read the Bible because I did not know I was dyslexic in different ways and could not remember the names and follow. I was always confused about who was who and time. No matter how I tried I could not get far. I did better with a calendar that had verses from the bible.. it was really upsetting to want to read as I saw my father and my grandmother read the Bible. I did remember saying from church sermons that were parables. I remembered and then when older I understood. I did not know that part about the stone and rejection til I read it here tonight. Without my dyslexia and the kind I have and a hearing thing I was born with where the ear is fine but certain phonetic sounds get lost going to the brain. If I don't get yhe first few words of a sentence then it is like I am deaf
Get the first few words and you would never notice my.problem. it made life harder. Without those 2 things I may have actually been brilliant. My relationship with God is strong. I live my faith everyday. I once heard someone say to someone "who are you trying to please " I was about 10. I went somewhere
quiet and asked myself that question. I have carried the answer forever: "myself and God." "And it is alot harder to please myself than it is to please God because God forgives me" ok now you know me. I await more from you. I am open. Gail 74 years now.

Jesus Christ is the Chief Cornerstone that the builders rejected. See the following Scripture passage: 1 Peter 2:6-8 New International Version
6 "For in Scripture it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame.”
7 Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe,
“The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone,”
8 and,
“A stone that causes people to stumble
and a rock that makes them fall.”
They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for."

The Lord God Made Them All" is a classic 1848 poem and hymn by Cecil Frances Alexander
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.
Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colours,
He made their tiny wings.
The purple-headed mountain,
The river running by,
The sunset, and the morning,
That brightens up the sky;
The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.
He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell,
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
And God made the Golden Elixir for man to find.
Love this
