I just watched a movie that talks about the royal cubit and the meter and they relate to the flower formation. Very interesting part of the show is only 12 minutes long and quite detailed about the cubit.

So many people want to have a long life, but they do not want to get old.

No matter what happens to your body in your later years - - - if you have been growing in Jesus, you will have the best of love and intimacy with God at the end of your life.

Is this like saying, "Though the outer man is going down the toilet, we have hope in our inner man, which is being renewed day by day"? (2 Cor 4:16 paraphrased)

@Vine Abider Forgiveness is letting go of resentment and anger; both are fear-based. The truth sets us free from fear. Without fear there is no resentment or anger. Unconditionality is based on 'knowing' the truth, and its expression is unconditional love and faith. Unconditional forgiveness is discerning the falsehoods behind all the fears involved, knowing that any attention to these is an example of bondage to self, to our old ways based on fear instead of truth. To act on these falsehoods is living in denial and in ignorance. "They do not know what they are doing".

Once forgiveness holds no needs/wants for compensation, hence unconditional, the unfettered consciousness becomes filled with the truth. It becomes obvious that the culprit behind the resentment/anger is fear. Fear is a falsehood that tells a story about not being 'okay'. Only our ego (false, old self) has fears. Our true Being is from God and is okay, always has been and will always be okay _ we really have nothing to fear.

Unconditional forgiveness 'knows' this truth, and all the reasons for forgiveness becomes mute and forgotten.

“Christ, in the council and covenant of grace and peace, asked many things of his Father, which were granted; he asked for the persons of all the elect to be his bride and spouse, and his heart's desire was given him, and the request of his lips was not withheld from him: he asked for all the blessings of grace for them; for spiritual life here, and eternal life hereafter; and all were given him, and put into his hands for them, Ps 20:2; and here it is promised him, and I shall give thee the Heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession; by "the Heathen", and "the uttermost parts of the earth", are meant God's elect among the Gentiles, and who live in the distant parts of the world; which are Christ's other sheep, the Father has given to him as his portion, and whom he has made his care and charge: as if it was not enough that he should be King of Zion, or have the government over his chosen ones among the Jews, he commits into his hands the Gentiles also; see Isa 49:6; and these are given him as his inheritance and possession, as his portion, to be enjoyed by him; and who esteems them as such, and reckons them a goodly heritage, and a peculiar treasure, his jewels, and the apple of his eye. These words respect the calling of the Gentiles under the Gospel dispensation; and the amplitude of Christ's kingdom in all the earth, which shall be from sea to sea, and from the rivers to the ends of the earth.” 
 John Gill,
