The Source Code of Reality
I was listening to this physicist, a brilliant guy, talking about the nature of reality. He was saying our entire universe—everything we can touch, see, and measure—is basically like a VR headset. It's a user interface, a simplified desktop that lets us function. But it's not the real reality. The math is leading him to believe that the true source of everything isn't matter or energy, but a vast, infinite consciousness.
And it just hit me. How astounding is that? Our most advanced science, our most cherished theories developed with the headset on, are leading us right back to the opening lines of an ancient book. A book people still scoff at.
What if the Bible had the source code all along?
Think about it. The Apostle Paul told us centuries ago that "the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal" (2 Corinthians 4:18, KJV). He was saying our physical world is just a temporary render. The real, eternal reality is the unseen, spiritual one. Our science is just now proving that the "headset" of spacetime can't possibly be the fundamental reality.
This whole experience, this life, is beautiful and real to us. But the Bible points to a time of transformation, a moment when the headset comes off. John said it so perfectly: "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is" (1 John 3:2, KJV).
That's the ultimate upgrade. We get to see the reality behind the interface. No more filters, no more rendering. We'll see Him—the fundamental consciousness, the Spirit that is God—directly. And in that moment, we'll finally realize that this incredible universe was a beautiful, but severely diminished, experience compared to the unfiltered glory of its Author.
It makes me think about our fight to hide God from our own discoveries. We keep reverse-engineering the physics engine of our reality, and every time the data points toward an intelligent mind, a Creator, we try to patch the code and write Him out of it. But why?
Maybe the point isn't just a scientific discovery. Maybe the system was designed with another path to the truth. Jesus said to Thomas, "...blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed" (John 20:29, KJV). There's a blessing in trusting the Programmer before you've completely decoded the program.
We can try to hide God with our theories and our philosophies, but ultimately, He built the headset. He wrote the code. He is the one reality that will not be hidden.
