PREFACE

This book is different from other books. It is not

intended to give you a complete picture but rather to

inspire you to think beyond what is to the power of

what is possible. Look at each slide and think about

what it says and could mean. This will empower you

to mine the value of the idea. I hope enjoy reading

this book as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

THE REALITY OF THE

UNIVERSE

Energy

Page 4: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

THE POWER OF THE UNIVERSE IS

IN ENERGY NOT MASS

Page 5: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

“MASS” = ENERGY

Every “thing” in the universe is really composed of

energy bundles

Page 6: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

OUR GREATEST DELUSION

Mass

Page 7: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

MASS

If a “thing” is cut in half repeatedly the result is not an

infinite amount of cuts but the release of its energy

So did the “thing” actually begin with substance “mass”?

Page 8: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

RELIGION BASED ON ENERGY

Everything is one of two things:

Energy or

The laws and organizational systems

behind energy

Page 9: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

LAWS

Because mass is a delusion

The “Laws of Physics” inadequately explain reality

Page 10: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

DEFINED

Energy

Page 11: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

LAWS

The order of the Universe is governed by the Laws of Energy not the

Laws of Mass

Many of the Laws of Energy have not been defined because of our

infatuation with “mass”

Our current understanding of energy is that it is various types of

waves (cell phone waves, light waves, sound waves, etc.)

We have a hard time conceptualizing “solid” objects as pure energy

Page 12: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

LAWS

“God” is not the energy of the universe but rather

the “laws” that govern and organize energy

Energy is not God and God is not Energy

Page 13: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

LAWS

The Laws of nature are not fixed and unchangeable,

rather they can and do “evolve” over time

Thus, God changes,

like everything else in the universe

Page 14: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

LAWS

Since energy has no beginning nor end

neither does God

Creation is a manmade construct

That has no bases in reality

Page 15: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

LAWS

Gods creates vast opportunities

We are not predestined

Fate and destiny are only limited by how we use the

opportunities in front of us

Page 16: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

TRUTH

Truths are found in the definition of energy and the

relationships energy sources have to and with each

other.

As different forms of energy come together different

“truths” result

Truth is all about energy in action

Page 17: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

ENERGY PERSPECTIVE

We want to believe that the board in front of the class is reality

But the board changes depending on one’s view of it.

The form of an energy source depends on

the perspective of the observer

Page 18: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

I intuitively believe that what I see is the same thing you are

seeing

This is simply not true

Reality constantly changes relative to the beholder

Page 19: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

The Universe is a closed system

Therefore the amount of energy

in the Universe is constant

This is very different view from the current view

that says the Universe is ever

expanding and its energy is limitless

Page 20: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

Every event that happens in the universe is

neutral

that is, it just happens

Individuals and other living and non-living things

determine the value, if any exists, of all events

Consequence: There is no “sin”

Page 21: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

Sin becomes a learning opportunity

Learning opportunities

Are not bad nor good

Just opportunities

Page 22: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

If there is no sin

The need for God to be judgmental

Vanishes

Page 23: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

The need for confession

The need for forgiveness

The need for mercy

Page 24: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

Rituals and Ceremonies

Just because we have always done it this

way

Doesn’t mean we have to do it that way now

Page 25: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

God does not select one individual or group

over others as his “favorite” or “chosen”

servants or for special dispensation

Page 26: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

As the Law Shaper and Giver

God wants every source of energy

to reach its fullest potential

And our potentials are in a constant state of flux

Page 27: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

REALITY

What happens when we reach our full

potential?

God changes “the rules” and we are given

new potentials!

Page 28: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

OBJECTS IN THE UNIVERSE

Energy sources (lights, walls, people, relationships,

love, etc.) in the Universe are “open” energy systems

They exchange energy with other energy

sources in the Universe

Touch the top of your desk

You are feeling energy

Page 29: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

THE INTERDEPENDENCE OF ENERGY

Energy does not exist as an independent

state

All “things” are interdependent

Page 30: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

CONSEQUENCE

“Me” as an independent being does not exist

To define “Me” takes two entities, me and everything that is

not me

We are interdependent

Page 31: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

RESPONSIBILITY

I alone bear the responsibility for my

actions

IS PURE DELUSION

We bear the responsibility of our actions

I am not independent from others therefore

we share

responsibilities for each other’s actions

Page 32: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

TYPES OF ENERGY

Energy sources with specific forms/boundaries

Energy that has realized its potential (a

book, computer, light, door, air, water, light

waves, sound waves etc.)

Energy that is in the possibility state

Energy that is in the “idea” state

Page 33: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

BOUNDARIES

Boundaries between energy forces are the key to

their power

Power of “touch” allows the transference

of energy from one source to another

Page 34: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

BOUNDARIES AND MASS

Boundaries viewed as “mass” create delusion.

We think of our fingers as a separate part of our

body

but they are not

Page 35: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

BOUNDARIES AND ENERGY

If we see our fingers as energy extensions of our body

we have near limitless possibilities to explore our

universes

We can actually “touch” other ideas (energy forces) and

interact with them

Page 36: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

EXCHANGE OF ENERGY INREALIZED ENERGY SOURCES

Energy is transferred across all contact surface sites

Picture on a wall

Transfers energy to the wall

Transfers energy to the air

Transfers energy to the wall hanger

Transfers energy to the nails

Transfers energy to the eye of the beholder

(via light energy)

And these sources transfer energy to the picture

Page 37: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

CONSEQUENCES

Energy routinely transfers power from one source of

energy to another

This is the power of the Universe

This power can be harnessed.

No energy is “lost”

Page 38: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

TRANSFER OF ENERGY

Transfer of Energy and its various reactions is “Religion”

The measure of an event’s worth is

the direct benefit the transfer yields

to the energy sources involved

Page 39: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

AS IDEA

Energy

Page 40: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

STATES OF REALITY

Something may be black or white

or some color in between

There are lots of possibilities!!!

Page 41: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

STATE OF POSSIBILITY

Stage before something becomes reality

Limited only by imagination of the beholder

Larger than reality (Most of us see “things” after they have realized their possibility)

“Real” but still fluid

Page 42: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

POWER OF PRAYER

Derives from seeing the world as energy not mass

Energy can and does pass from one energy

source to another

When we can totally dismiss “Mass” as reality

– we can access near unlimited power

Page 43: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

IDEA LOOSES POTENTIAL

An unnamed ideaOnce thinking stops – the idea is lost

DreamsThoughtsVisions

Vanish if not named

Possibility ceases to exist

Page 44: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

NAMING/LABELING ENERGY SOURCES

Energy

Page 45: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

TWO KINDS OF NAMES

Logos names/labels include the concept of mass and are

powerless to affect change in the world

i.e. as “Mass” Cellphones are just something we

carry

Rhema names/labels focus on energy also focuses on the

transforming power of possibility

As energy – Cellphones bring the world

to the palm of our hand

Page 46: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

NAMING THE IDEA

Establishes a boundary

Creates opportunity for repetitiveness

Creates opportunity for transferring it

to others

Creates an opportunity for continuance

beyond the present

Can empower the actors involved with the idea

to build on the original concept

Page 47: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

N A M E S D E T E R M I N E T H E B O U N D A R I E S

Naming an idea creates the boundaries of the idea

Limits the idea

Gives it specificity

Distinguishes one idea from another idea

Allows the idea to be tracked over time

A new name changes the boundaries of the original idea

Rhema naming an idea shapes its energy force

giraffes

Page 48: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

ACTUALIZATIONT H E A C T O F M A K I N G A N I D E A

Energy

Page 49: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

I D E A S U S E L E SS W I T H O U T A C T UA L I Z AT I O N

Actualization transforms the possibility of an idea into

reality

Actualization requires focus

Page 50: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

IDEAS CAN BLEND WITH OTHER IDEAS

Actualized ideas can be blended with other ideas

Results:

The idea’s boundaries change

Something new can be created

Progress happens

Things evolve

Page 51: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

PURPOSE OF LIFE

Our Purpose in life is determined by the way we use the

energy encounters we experience

It is not something assigned to us from before we were

born

It is based on our previous experiences and the present

encounters

Present Situation New Opportunity

Page 52: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

PURPOSE OF LIFE

Focusing the power of the universe

to empower each of us to reach our potentials and

beyond!

Page 53: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

NO ACTUALIZATION

Ideas happen

– they get named

-- but they don’t get actualized

Little happens

The potential of the dream dissipates

Describes much of what happens in our world

Page 54: TRANSFORMATIONALISM TRANSFORMATIONALISM ACQUIRING THE POWER OF POSSIBILITY By Wayne A. Knight.

When energy fields combine things happen

Where I am going with this concept?

Help individuals create and combine energy forces So that more individuals can experience Shalom(The wholeness of life in body, mind and spirit)

Intensified Energy
