The Eternal Nature of Intelligence and Matter
Principle #1: Intelligence is Eternal. It cannot be created or destroyed, It can also be defined as light or truth. Only Jesus Christ (and the Father and the Holy Ghost) have a fullness of light and truth. They are the only ones with a perfect intelligence! The intelligence in man is also eternal. But only a fraction of the light and truth possessed by God. God's work is to create, or join matter with intelligence so that His creations might possess a fullness of joy to their individual capacity! Matter is infinite. So is intelligence. Thus there is no end to Creation.Or beginning, Creation is as eternal as God and man. Yes, animals have intelligence. As do insects and plants etc. In fact this earth is filled with intelligence. Its the intelligence that responds to God's commands. And why Jesus could walk on water, feed the multitude, curse the fig tree etc. God will ultimately recover every particle of intelligence combined with matter in the Resurrection. There they will be joined forever eternally. Satan, and the third that followed him in his rebellion are void of intelligence and thus are called Perdition or Total Loss. More on that later....
