The Eternity Beyond The Triple Helix
Author: Victor G. Henigan
Publisher: PublishAmerica
ISBN: 1456086820
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
Victor Henigan takes us on a unique journey from our world, down into the micro world of the atom, and beyond into the very realm of the architectural source of creation and on to Eternity. The Triple Helix published in the year 2000, is reviewed and visionary corrections are made based on NASA's 'WMAP' space probe. Following, he moves to define string theory at a level that is unique and quite understandable. Presenting a number of proofs for his farsighted prediction's, he follows with a sacred visionary writing that was written some fifty years ago, ending in eternity itself. Author Henigan, now in his eighties, is retired following a sixty year carrier in church music, during which he served many churches in the San Francisco bay area' sometimes as choir director, other times as organist, and many times as tenor soloist. For seven years in the sixties, as choir director at the Woodside Road United Methodist Church, he produced two beautiful recording albums of sacred music, 'Revelation' and 'Glory.' In addition to his church carrier, he was a member of the Orpheum Male Chorus, for ten years, and tenor soloist for the Sonoma County Men's Chorus, during the lifetime of the chorus under its founder. His musical studies include nine years of piano, one year of organ, and seven years of voice. In this effort we realize, as stated in 'The Witness of The Animation' that: All creation is housed within and upon a structure which in its true and pure existence is not given to structural form. The natural activity within and upon this existence is divine residence. That which exists within it in a state of natural activity is so flexible that it no longer remains in structural form. That which exists within it in a state of unnatural activity is in structural form. Man is in the image, or unnatural structural form, while God is in the natural existence.
