We attempt a critique of the most eminent eschatologist, Max King, and his surprising unawareness to an important facet of the eschaton, or last event. 
     Stalwart of Realized Eschatology, the noted author did much to create a progressive perception of the eschaton, or final event closing out a study of realized eschatology. But like many other theologians, this great thinker and writer was forced to tolerate or create a certain vagueness to allow viability for his perception of the eschaton notion. This author would not accuse the renowned scholar of purposely misleading his ecclesia following but rather to uncover the shallowness of breadth in the established time frames set as perimeters for those early displayed but modernly unacknowledged Ages so subtly announced in the visions of both Daniel and John (Revelation).
     We would be remiss should we not elucidate the discrepancy outstanding in King’s considerable exegetical endeavor entitled: The Spirit Of Prophesy plus The Cross And The Parousia Of Christ, (King, Ibid., p. 32), observed at    https://www.preteristarchive.com/StudyArchive/k/king-max.html. We quote his stated position: "This means that during the eschaton the believers lived in a tension of experienced and anticipated eschatology; between 'the already' and 'the not yet.' They were already in the kingdom of Christ (Col. 1:13), but still waiting for the coming of the kingdom of God (1 Cor. 15:24-28). But this waiting was not passive, as seen in Heb, 12:28 (sic) where the 'receiving of the kingdom' is presented as a present, active experience, as was also the case in their experiencing the powers of the age to come (6:5)."
     In this very revealing testimony, he mentions not only the Kingdom Of Christ but also the Kingdom of God as pertinent aorist incidence displaying “evidence of things not seen”  (Heb. 11:1). But Mr. King did not realize the prominent linkage binding these two distinct intervals. He was so close and yet so far away from the prophetic disclosure opening a gate between the two kingdom edifices.
     In Daniel’s revealing Ten Horn Ages (Dan.7:7), defined in THE GREAT DECEPTION: Symbols And Numbers Clarified, we make the connection between Daniel’s Beast with Eight Horn (Ages) (three plucked and another grown in their place) to an unlikely but remarkably similar Eight Head Ages on John’s Revelation 17:11 Beast. To the casual reader, beware: a careless reading will fail to intercept this pertinent but unlikely pairing of intents! The key rests in the two prophets’ dissimilar symbols and numbers choice.
     Not realizing the true significance of visionaries Daniel and John’s time frame, secretly posited in Horn and Head duplicity, Max could not discover their was, is, and is to come familiar format. As episodic intervals, the two work interrelated, in eschatological continuance, unto the end of all things (I Pet. 4:7), The Kingdom of Christ had obligation to evolve into Kingdom of God auspices; inasmuch as, the Kingdom of God must continue as Parousia, or ‘Second Coming,’ encompassing the eschaton, or final event, and per Mr. King’s own word choice. Kingdom of Christ and Parousia are nowhere to be found as separate chronologies, in any scripture, or as explanatory of Two Ages, separate, but held as aorist contingencies counted in the grand scheme. Repeatedly warned in scripture, they are set forth as ninth and tenth of the Daniel Ten Horn Ages, abbreviated in the Eight Head Ages of John’s testimony. King’s exegesis rested on the cusp of a great discovery but was hampered by traditions impressed upon his and succeeding generations. Expansion on the Ten Ages continues in The Great Deception: Symbols And Numbers Clarified.

Ira M. Freeman assists understanding (at the least, stirs curiosity) about intelligence created in a single molecule and explains the atoms’ propensity to selectively join or bond into mutually beneficial substrates. The author relates a most fundamental attempt to explain the atom and its particles to those who might know least about the very start of life and recognizable phenomena. For those desiring an easy introduction into the substance and workability of atoms and about the intelligence created in a single molecule; this is the book for the curious, for both young and old, and for those with abiding interest in physics or metaphysics. Without the atom, physicality and religion could not exist.
 
As we stretch hypotheses, so might atom intelligence stretch imagination to its utmost; in the grasp of speculation, we consider the possibility of intelligence for anything having predilection to improvement acting upon this compulsion, the elements can manifest change by either attraction, decision, or benefit intent.  To gather some perception of size and substance in the free-wheeling, single atom, Freeman suggests, “<i>. . . it would take about 3 million billion carbon atoms to create the period ink at this sentence end (when printed) -- and this entire molecule complement, regardless its perceived state, is never still -- continuously moved -- never at rest -- average speed about 1700 feet per second. A molecule in the air bumps into other molecules about five billion times each second</i>.”
 
In a chemical and biological review of matter, Freeman explains how atoms create energy and energy causes element atoms to behave in different ways. About 100 elements, give or take a few, have been discovered; importantly, each element is composed of its own peculiar atom construction, with specific proton, neutron, and electron components -- plus even more elusive to define components. Regardless atom appearance, albeit in water, trees, humans, or copper wire, the atom comprises mostly space. Its nucleus constitutes only about 1/10000th total atom volume. Swinging around the atom’s outer circumference (energy shell [sic]) are electron orbitals (a quantum concept encompassing the potential track whole around each atom. [We might also consider: an electron, speeding around the Hydrogen single proton core, weighs only 1/1836th as much as the core it orbits.
 
Freeman, rather simply, explains the appearance of perceivable atom masses. In our world, element atoms comprise all forms of solids, liquids, and gas (Iron becomes gas at 10000°). Mixtures of elements (matter) are called compounds. And, compound mixtures create energy! Light furnishes energy. Energy changes matter! Matter creates energy! E = mc2 proves in experiment and the following statement, in essence: the relativity theory adds something new; wherewith, matter can be changed into energy, and energy into matter. Electrons, by leaping to other orbitals, directly or indirectly create every conceivable convenience, tool, or device from the quantum within and outside its proton or proton-neutron nuclei’s induced energy shell [sic].
 
How wonderful to simplify life itself! Without directing our propensity to evolve, we might still be chipping flint tools and arrowheads, striking sparks in the processes but never realizing the great potential in particles flying from abraded rocks; for these are energy particles—which might just as easily have fueled a human cell. An unwritten law governs atom combination into compounds, evolved to substrates, into advanced substrates, into super-substrates, on and on, and finally into ADP and ATP workhorses in cellular construction and maintenance. But this is advanced and not a part of Freeman’s simplistic presentation. We include cellular propensity merely to illustrate the atom’s importance to human welfare and development. Computer programs and memory, too, are only atom particles potentially awaiting instigation. Absolutely amazing!
 
In Freeman’s simplistic account, he remarks how Man first learned to use fire, cultivate superstition, make tools, then utilize the power of steam, and later electricity. Today he stands at the door of a new age—the Age of Atoms. The things to come we can only imagine.
 
In addition to the this brief study on physics, you are invited to further study, into more physics, and into metaphysics, another fascinating study and as full of surprises as the physics world. Discover how we invented traditional soteriologies: why ‘Ten Ages’ are the least understood but most important contribution to Bible eschatology. Physics and metaphysics are related, inasmuch as both investigate our relation to invisible worlds. Further studies are available on the legitimacy of modern religions, but Freeman’s book is recommended as an introduction to the transparent, the invisible.
