View Point The gospel in bytes By Dean Houghton St, Matthew’s Anglican Church IN EVERY generation and in every culture Christians have sought to spread the message of Jesus in ways that reach the people of every time and place, .....Here‘is an attempt at a new lan- guage, | ~...God, the great programmer, & systems engineer, designed, com- ‘missioned and created the sun, '. the. planets and galaxies in their “courses and this fragile earth, our * island home. God formatted the human pro- '.. gramming unit-(HPU) and in- "stalled an HOD (human operating system) in ROM in such a way, that to get maximum performance and satisfaction, the personal unit “must be linked into the Human ~~ Network ‘and into the Singular "Trine Divine Network (God). God is the only program - ° network that can activate the ‘» HOS, which gives us purpose and elernal maintenance support. The size and speed of the RAM, the smoothness of the interface, and the size of the hard drive, cannot _- -compensate for this operating re- "quirement of the HOS. ‘No - modem is required to -. Upload or download to the "creator. Users can interface with the creator as long as the HOD is tumed on: ...Many HPU’s spend much of their time uploading requests to the creator for utillties for debug- ging malfunctions, memory over- ‘loads; system crashes, new fea- turcs-and desired new programs. They look only for downloads that match their requests. . However downloads from the "creator often come in other lan- ~ puiages, not readable by HPU’s which praclice uploads only. In the beginning, God used a Beta HOS format which used Torah logic. While making ~. cerlain permanent commilments to this design and cloned models, this model kept crashing. Early techniques employed to recover the data required the HPU’s and the Human Network lo erase sectors (sacrifices) so that God could work with the Hu- man Network. Finally God decided that his system of sacrifices, the whole tribe of system engineers, debug- gers, their hardware and software was working against itself God then did the unthinkable and wrote himself into a human DOS (HOS), though unlike hu- mans, there were no bad sectors in the diskette of this HPU. This is known as the Jesus ver- sion. While translated into many cultures and languages there remains only the Jesus 1 Version. Jesus began to spread the word about a new generation of com- puting and the ultimate network. His antivirus capabilities were uncanny. Even touching his mainframe was reputed to restore malfunctioning programs. Many had bad sectors restored. Jesus had only three years for product design, marketing, sales and implementation before the Beta copyright representatives at- tempted a coup, They arranged a hostile takeover and had his hard drive disabled, his HOS erased and his mainframe junked. Incredibly, three days later, ‘there he was - rebooted by the Singular Triune Divine and run- ning with incredible abilities. Most amazing was, and still is, his ability to download and mn resident in any who subscribes ta the vision of the ultimate network made known in the Jesus 1 Ver- sion. This version is still available to all who seek it.
