THE ALPHA FREQUENCY #710: TUNING OUT THE STATIC: YESHUA’S TEACHINGS ON LIGHT AND DARKNESS

The Words for Light and Darkness

Kia ora, whānau. Today we are looking at a topic that is often treated as a fairy tale, the battle between light and darkness. But when we look at the direct teachings of Yeshua, we see that He was actually describing the spiritual physics of how our world is built. In the Quantum Whakapapa project, we look at light and darkness as two different types of energy that we deal with every single day. To understand these teachings, we first look at the Greek words Yeshua used and how they fit into our world.

  • Phōs (Greek): In English, this is Light or Radiance. In Te Reo Māori, the closest words are Mārama or Tīaho. It means a bright source that makes everything clear to see and understand.

  • Skotos (Greek): In English, this is Darkness or Gloom. In Te Reo Māori, it is Pōuri or Kāpō. It describes being in a fog where you are blinded and cannot find your way.

Understanding the Signal

Phōs or Mārama is the good signal that brings order and peace to our lives. When things are clear, we can make good choices for our whānau. Skotos or Pōuri is like static on a radio. It is the confusion and stress that makes us feel heavy and lost. Yeshua explained that those who follow Him will never walk in this darkness, but will have the light of life (John 8:12).
