Universal Bible is the universal truth of the Bible in science and religion It provides the answers to many major problems in science and religion today On the surface, the Bible reveals the special truth to a specific society at specific time and place, but below the surface, the Bible reveals the universal truth The special truth is the shadow of the universal truth The Universal Bible can be applied to anywhere in the universe The Universal Bible is divided into five periods: the six-day creation, the original humans, the Prehistoric Eden, the Moral Covenant, and the Harmonious Covenant for the six days of the creation in Genesis, the sixth day of the creation in Genesis, the Garden of Eden, the Old Testament, and the New Testament, respectively, in the Bible The six-day creation can be explained scientifically The first day corresponds to the emergence of the current asymmetrical dual universe of the observable light universe with light and the hidden dark universe without light from the simple and dark pre-universe The dark universe coexisting with the observable light universe later becomes dark energy connecting with the light universe The second day corresponds to the separation of incompatible dark matter and baryonic matter for the formation of galaxies The third day corresponds to the separation of interstellar medium and star with planet where organisms were developed The fourth day, the fifth day, and the sixth day corresponds to the solar system formation, the primitive organism formation, and the advanced organism formation, respectively The six-day creation provides the answers for cosmology, the unified theory, dark energy, dark matter, the galaxy formation, and human evolution The original humans created on the sixth day were unique among all creatures The uniqueness of the original humans in the image of God is explained by human social lives The three basic human social lives are yin, yang, and harmony for feminine collective wellbeing, masculine individualistic achievement, and harmonious cooperation, respectively The harmonious social life transcends yin yang and exists only in humans Human social lives were derived from human evolution, including ape evolution and hominid evolution The prehistoric hunter-gatherer society was the harmonious society Through the supernatural miracle (the non-representation of the natural physical laws), the supernatural selects the human harmonious society to survive by the supernatural revelation of the abstractness (the non-representation of the expression of the natural human mind) During the Upper Paleolithic Period, the supernatural revealed the abstract bond for bonding the isolated social groups to survive the harsh environment The emergence of civilization by the Neolithic Revolution of the agricultural-nomad society caused the exit from the Garden of Eden by taking the fruit of the knowledge of civilization God provides the abstract morality to prevent the activated dehumanized prey-predator instinct in the civilized society, resulting in the Moral Covenant between God and the chosen moral civilized society, Israel God provides the abstract rebirth for the civilized people to return to the harmonious social life and society, resulting in the Harmonious Covenant between God and the chosen harmonious society, the Christian church The Postmodern Unified Society fulfills the end time prophecy for the end of the old divided society and the beginning of the new unified society The followers of harmony continue to exist in afterlife The Universal Bible provides the universal meaning to the global human race, history, and society In this way, the Universal Bible can be applied to anywhere in the universe The Diagrams for the Universal Bible The Five Periods the six-day creation (the six days of creation) the original humans (the sixth day of creation) the Upper Paleolithic Revolution The Prehistoric Eden: the prehistoric harmonious society with

understood and practiced by a real society, so on the surface it reveals the special truth to a specific society at specific time and place Below the surface, the Bible contains the universal truth in science and religion The special truth is the shadow of the universal truth The universal truth in the Bible is ahead of the contemporary understanding, and provides the answers to the major problems in science and religion Standard science today, particularly physics, faces many unsolved major problems, such as cosmology, the unified theory, dark energy, dark matter, and the galaxy formation Standard religion of the postmodern period with the global perspective seeks the meaning of global human history, and searches for the universal truth of religions The Universal Bible is the universal truth of the Bible in science and religion to provide the answers to many major problems in science and religion today The Universal Bible is divided into five periods: the six-day creation, the original humans, the Prehistoric Eden, the Moral Covenant, and the Harmonious Covenant for the six days of the creation in Genesis, the sixth day of the creation in Genesis, the Garden of Eden, the Old Testament, and the New Testament, respectively, in the Bible The six-day creation (Chapter 1) can be explained scientifically The first day corresponds to the emergence of the current asymmetrical dual universe of the observable light universe with light and the hidden dark universe without light from the simple and dark pre-universe The dark universe coexisting with the observable light universe later becomes dark energy connecting with the light universe The second day corresponds to the separation of incompatible dark matter and baryonic matter for the formation of galaxies The third day corresponds to the separation of interstellar medium and star with planet where organisms were developed The fourth day, the fifth day, and the sixth day corresponds to the solar system formation, the primitive organism formation, and the advanced organism formation, respectively The six-day creation provides the answers for cosmology, the unified theory, dark energy, dark matter, the galaxy formation, and human evolution The original humans (Chapter 2) created on the sixth day were unique among all creatures The uniqueness of the original humans in the image of God is explained by human social lives The three basic human social lives are yin, yang, and harmony for feminine collective wellbeing, masculine individualistic achievement, and harmonious cooperation, respectively The harmonious social life transcends yin yang and exists only in humans Human social lives were derived from human evolution, including ape evolution and hominid evolution The harmonious social life was evolved to adapt to the small social group The prehistoric hunter-gatherer society was the harmonious society The Prehistoric Eden (Chapter 3) explains the Garden of Eden where the prehistoric human society interacted with the supernatural Through the supernatural miracle (the non-representation of the natural physical laws), the supernatural selects the human harmonious society to survive by the supernatural revelation of the abstractness (the nonrepresentation of the expression of the natural human mind), including the abstract bond, the abstract morality, and the abstract rebirth During the Upper Paleolithic Period, the supernatural revealed the abstract bond for bonding the isolated social groups to survive the harsh environment The emergence of civilization by the Neolithic Revolution of the agricultural-nomad society caused the exit from the Garden of Eden by taking the fruit of the knowledge of civilization God provides the abstract morality to prevent the activated dehumanized prey-predator instinct in the civilized society, resulting in the Moral Covenant (Chapter 4) between God and the chosen moral civilized society, Israel God provides the abstract rebirth for the civilized people to return to the harmonious social life and society, resulting in the Harmonious Covenant (Chapter 5) between God and the chosen harmonious society, the Christian church The Universal Bible provides the universal meaning to the global human race, history, and society In this way, the Universal Bible can be applied to anywhere in the universe The Six-Day Creation: the six days in Genesis Verses in Genesis Chapter The first day 1-5 The second day 6-8 The third day 9-13 The fourth day 14-19 The fifth day 20-23 The sixth day 24-31 The formation Universe formation Galaxy formation Star formation Solar system formation Primitive organism formation Advanced organism formation The scientific sequence of the six days in the creation is the universe formation, the galaxy formation, the star formation, the solar system formation, the primitive organism human formation and the advanced organism formation The cosmology model in agreement with the interpretive description of the first three days in Genesis is called “Genesis Cosmology” 1,2 This chapter deals with primarily Genesis Cosmology The first three days are the days for the divisions, corresponding to the periods for the divisions in Genesis Cosmology Genesis In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it And it was so God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day And God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so God called the dry ground "land," and the gathered waters he called "seas." And God saw that it was good Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds And God saw that it was good And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night He also made the stars God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, 10 Way In their dwellings, they love the earth In their hearts, they love what is profound In their friendship, they love humanity In their words, they love sincerity In government, they love good order In business, they love ability In their actions, they love timeliness It is because they not compete that there is no resentment (Dao De Jing Chapter 8) To Laozi, the adaptation of the harmonious social life to the world (nonharmonious civilization) is like the adaptation of water to its environment Water does not compete with its environment in terms of what form to exist The harmonious social life simply survives whatever form that the world allows it to exist as long as there is a place for the harmonious social life that is different from the social lives of the world Therefore, the harmonious social life does not mind to exist in the place that the world dislikes The motivation for the harmonious society to exist is mutual empathy and empowerment, instead of winning It is like water that benefits the world Water is close to the Way The ways to benefit the world is to have down-to-earth living place, thoughtful mind, loving relationship, trustworthy words, orderly government, capable business, and timely action In the long run, the world appreciates the non-competing harmonious society Without competing with the world, the harmonious society as Christianity, Buddhism, and Daoism actually survives and thrives in the world Laozi further described the leadership in the social life It is also like water, soft and yielding Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water, yet nothing can better overcome the hard and strong, for they can neither control nor away with it The soft overcomes the hard The yielding overcomes the strong Every person knows this, but no one can practice it Therefore the sage declares: One who accepts the humiliation of the nation may be the priest at the altar One who accepts the misfortunes of the nation is the Empire's Sovereign True words are often paradoxical (Dao De Jing Chapter 78) For Daoism, a leader of the Way accepts the humiliation and the misfortunes of the nation For Christianity, the symbol of the humiliation and the misfortunes is the cross, and paradoxically, through the cross Jesus reaches priesthood and kinghood The harmonious adaptation identity of the kingdom of God to the world is the cross that accepts the humiliation and the misfortunes of the world rather than the domination of the world In the way, paradoxically, the kingdom of God as the harmonious society survives and thrives in the world The summary of the seven-step conversion to the harmonious social life is as below 111 The Seven-Step Conversion to the Harmonious Social Life The Harmonious Relationship:

the abstract bond the Neolithic Revolution the civilized society The Moral Covenant between God and Israel with the abstract morality 112 The Harmonious Covenant between God and the Christian church with the abstract rebirth 5.4 The Postmodern Kingdom of God as the Harmonious Society of God 5.4.1 The Harmonious Society of God The Postmodern Revolution with the global mass telecommunication allows the harmonious society to have a global perspective The blessed Postmodern Kingdom of God is the harmonious society of God The three obvious elements in the harmonious society of God are human, God, the interaction between human and God 5.4.2 Human The human social lives and society were evolved through natural selection The two old human social lives are yin and yang, corresponding to female and male psychological characteristics of advanced sexual organisms, corresponding to collective wellbeing, and yang stands for individualistic achievement Because of the high social barriers for the yin and the yang social lives, eager and free cooperation among individuals is not easy Eager cooperation among human individuals is possible because the new human social life is harmony Harmony in terms of harmonious cooperation is the unique new human social life that no other organisms have In terms of evolution, the departure from other apes is bipedalism, which is the oldest of all hominid characteristics With bipedalism, the walking hands turned into free hands for enhancing gestural language Language reduced the social barriers from the old human yin-yang social lives, resulting in the hyper friendly instinct to facilitate eager cooperation, which had evolutionary competitive advantage In terms of human evolution, the human brain grew larger rapidly to accommodate language and socialization skill The prefrontal cortex grew even faster to control the old human social lives The result is the harmonious social life with the conscience instinct that is the combination of the hyper friendly instinct and the detective instinct for detecting lie associating with elaborate language, resulting in eager cooperation without lie The society from the harmonious social life is the harmonious society as manifested in the prehistoric hunter-gatherer society The harmonious society follows the social behaviors in Humanist Manifesto III 106 that describe what human should be • Life’s fulfillment emerges from individual participation in the service of humane ideals • Humans are social by nature and find meaning in relationships • Working to benefit society maximizes individual happiness 5.4.3 The Interaction The supernatural is known only through the interaction of the supernatural and the human society Beyond the interaction, the seeking for the understanding of the supernatural is unnecessary Jesus said, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33a).” The interaction is through supernatural selection In supernatural selection, the supernatural selects human as the chosen species, the harmonious social life as the chosen social life, and the harmonious society as the chosen society Through the supernatural 113 miracle (the non-representation of the natural physical laws), the supernatural selects the human harmonious society to survive by the divine revelation of the abstractness (the non-representation of the expression of the natural human mind), including the abstract bond, the abstract morality, and the abstract rebirth During the Upper Paleolithic Period, the supernatural revealed the abstract bond for bonding the isolated social groups to survive the harsh environment in the prehistoric hunter-gatherer society Without the abstract bond (symbolized by female figurines and cave paintings), human would have become extinct like Neanderthals The prehistoric hunter-gatherer society with the abstract bond is the prehistoric harmonious society of God The harmonious social life essentially follows essentially TIT FOR TAT, the best strategy for the game of prisoner's dilemma TIT FOR TAT works in small social group The harmonious social life as TIT FOR TAT does not work in a large social group The enlargement of social group by civilization from the Neolithic Revolution caused the deviation from the harmonious social life and society The ideal human social behaviors as described in Humanist Manifesto III not work well the large civilized social group To prevent the activated dehumanized preypredator instinct in the civilized society, the moral religion as the transitional harmonious society of God was established in the Old Testament with the abstract morality through the supernatural miracle Jesus Christ initiated the harmonious society of God with the abstract rebirth 5.4.4 The Organism Structure of the Harmonious Society of God The basic unit of social group in the harmonious society is a small social group less than about 35 people, because the harmonious cooperation works the best in a small social group The structure of the harmonious society is like organism consisting of single cell or multiple cells Single cell structure is like house church that exists as one small group of people unconnected to other group Multiple cell structure is the harmonious society consisting of many small groups as the basic units There are connections among cell groups There are joint activities among cell groups, but the cell group activity is the essential activity to keep harmonious cooperation as reality, because the harmonious cooperation works well in a small social group 5.4.5 The Harmonist Manifesto for the Harmonious Society of God The harmonious society of God is interpreted by human evolution, human history, and psychology to describe the whole human society in the past, the present, and the future The prehistoric harmonious society of God was the Garden of Eden, which is the prehistoric harmonious society of God It existed as the prehistoric harmonious hunter-gatherer society The fall of the prehistoric harmonious society of God resulted from the emergence of civilization that deviated from the harmonious society The transitional harmonious society of God was the moral religion as Judaism where God was the high ruler The moral religion maintained high morality in immoral civilization Jesus Christ initiated the harmonious society of God through the sacrifice and the resurrection The decline of the harmonious society of God later resulted from the rise of 114 the state religion The decline of the state religion resulted in the return of the harmonious society of God The return and the future harmonious society of God is the harmonious society of God on earth in the three-branch Unified Society consisting of the collective society, the individualistic society, and the harmonious society for collective wellbeing, individualistic achievement, and harmonious cooperation, respectively The Harmonist Manifesto is as follows the name: The harmonious society of God is the harmonious society of God on earth Jesus Christ is the head the context The harmonious society of God is the harmonious society in the Unified Society consisting of the collective society, the individualistic society, and the harmonious society for collective wellbeing, individualistic achievement, and harmonious cooperation, respectively The non-harmonious world consists of the collective society and the individualistic society the origin: The origin of the harmonious society of God is the interaction between God and humans The interaction between humans and God is supernatural selection Through the supernatural miracle (the non-representation of the natural physical laws), God selects the harmonious society as the chosen society by the divine revelation of the abstractness (the non-representation of the expression of the natural human mind), including the abstract bond, the abstract morality, and the abstract rebirth The abstract rebirth leads to the harmonious society of God the admission: Unlike the non-harmonious world, the harmonious society of God has the minimum social barrier among God and all people The minimum social barrier was achieved by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for all people on the cross to break down the high social barrier of the non-harmonious world Everyone who accepts the salvation of Jesus Christ can be admitted to the harmonious society of God through the confession of disharmony sins, the repentance from disharmony sins, and the acceptance of the salvation Because of the unique salvation through Jesus Christ to minimize the social barrier among God and all people, the salvation of Jesus Christ is the path to establish the harmonious relationship in the harmonious society of God the missions: The first mission is to establish the harmonious relationship among God and all people The second mission is to learn and practice the harmonious mind as sanctification from all sources The third mission is to establish the harmonious adaptation that is to benefit without competing with the non-harmonious world and other religious traditions the structure The social structure is the organism structure consisting of single cell group or multiple cell groups, which are small social groups Harmonious cooperation works well in a small social group 115 The simple foundation for the harmonious society of God is love as described by Paul in the Bible If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing Love is patient, love is kind It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres Love never fails But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known And now these three remain: faith, hope and love But the greatest of these is love (1 Corinthians 13) When we start to know fully, we start to know that love is greater than the differences in religious faiths and religious hopes The New Testament of the Bible tears down the separation between the Jewish and the Gentile (non-Jewish) religious traditions, and builds the kingdom of God based on Jesus Christ Similarly, the Postmodern Period tears down the separation between the Christian and the non-Christian religious traditions, and builds the harmonious society of God based on Jesus Christ 5.5 The End Time In human society, different interactions among different entities result in different products There are two possible interactions: the elimination interaction and the combination interaction In the elimination interaction, the result is the elimination of entities by the other entities In the combination interaction, the result is the interlocking product as the combination of the interacting entities balancing each other The dualism of good and evil represents the elimination interaction, resulting in the elimination of evil by good as the ultimate product The dualism of yin and yang represents the combination interaction, resulting in the interlocking product with both yin and yang balancing each other There are proper places for the elimination interaction and the combination interaction In divided society, including the divided international society, where nations fight against and eliminate each other, the concept of the elimination interaction prevails to reflect the fighting for survival in divided society In unified society where social groups depend on each other, the concept of the combination interaction prevails to reflect the existing peaceful co-existent entities in unified society Historically, in Europe and the Middle East for the West, many nations fought and eliminated each other as the divided society, so the concept of the elimination interaction prevailed to reflect the divided society in Europe and the Middle East In China, India, and the Far East for the East, there was the 116 reality of unified society, so the concept of the combination interaction prevailed to reflect the unified society in China, India, and the Far East In India, the key to the unified society is connection among all things In India, the different social classes were interlocked into the caste system through reincarnation Millions of gods are simply connected together by reincarnations, families, and theories India today with many different languages is held together by the concept of the unified society For thousands years, Indians have connected all things together, so the divided society is unthinkable and foreign In China, the key to unified society is one nation (the Middle Kingdom) The strong sense of one nation allows China to overcome divisions and absorb invading people and ideas into the Middle Kingdom Now the East meets the West The question now is what the postmodern society is, divided society or unified society If the postmodern society is divided society, the elimination interaction prevails If the postmodern society is unified society, the combination interaction prevails Since the end of the Cold War, all major powers in the world have become increasingly interdependent in trades, goals, and many parts of life through increasingly ubiquitous global communication For major powers in the world, the postmodern society is unified society Therefore, in the postmodern society, the combination interaction prevails to reflect the Postmodern Unified Society In the traditional West as divided society, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have the prophecies about the end time, while in the East as unified society, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Daoism not have the end time Without fighting for survival, Hinduism and Buddhism believe in cycles of destruction and creation Confucianism and Daoism believe the past, the present, and the future are connected continuously in the sense that learning passes from generations to generations In the prophecies of the West with the fighting for survival, the ultimate result of the end time is the emergence of unified society by the ultimate victory of good over evil in divided society By the definition of divided society, there is eternal fighting for survival without ultimate victory until the end of divided society Therefore, the end time reflects divided society, and the end of prevailing divided society is the beginning of prevailing unified society The Postmodern Unified Society fulfills the end time prophecies of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam The end time is the end time of divided society as the divided society of the West, so the end time is social-cultural-economic rather than physicalreligious as traditionally expected It is similar to Jesus’ kingdom of God that is socialspiritual rather than political as traditionally expected In the Bible, the unified society was described by Prophet Isaiah (in the 8th-century BC) as the unified society without the fighting for survival after the end time “See, I will create new heavens and a new earth The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind…The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent’s food They will neither harm nor destroy on my entire holy mountain,” says the LORD (Isaiah 65: 17-25) They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore (Isaiah 2:4) 117 Prophet John (in the first-century AD) described the new earth as the unified society where all nations co-exist peacefully without separation after the end time Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea I saw the Holy City… The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it (Revelation 21:1-26) 5.6 This Life and Afterlife In religions, many aspects of doctrines in afterlife are the projection of this life in terms of idealized forms of this-life In reality, it is not easy to project this life into afterlife When Jesus was asked about marriage in afterlife in terms of resurrection after dead, Jesus replied, “You are in error because you not know the Scriptures or the power of God At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.” (Matthew 22:29-30) To Jesus, marriage of this life cannot be projected into afterlife Similarly, the living body and the living society of this life cannot be easily projected into afterlife In this life, there are living physical body and living society, but in afterlife, there is no living physical body and living society that are the origin of happiness and suffering that we know in life Happiness is the encouragement to enhance the fitness in living body and living society, while suffering is the warning about the disorder that can hurt living body and living society There is nothing intrinsic about happiness and suffering The differences between happiness and suffering are in small molecules (good and bad taste and odor), temperatures (comfort and pain), air pressures (music and noise), wavelengths (pleasant and unpleasant color), symmetry (beauty and ugliness), reproduction (attraction and rejection), and social support (love and loneliness) All happiness and suffering must be measured by living body and living society Heaven and hell in afterlife associate with happiness and suffering, but without living body and living society in afterlife, happiness and suffering that we know in this life not exist in afterlife Without happiness and suffering that we know in this life, how can we define heaven and hell in afterlife? Since afterlife cannot be projected easily from this life, it is possible to read the religious doctrine of afterlife as the idealized this-life to teach the followers how to behave in this life The reincarnation based on karma that teaches the followers to take the moral consequences seriously for the future life after afterlife really teaches the followers to take the moral consequences seriously for this life The religious teaching of heaven and hell for afterlife based on how a person behaves is really the religious teaching of heaven and hell in this life based on how a person behaves Happiness and 118 suffering in afterlife are really happiness and suffering in this life Heaven and hell in afterlife are really heaven and hell in this life Does afterlife have happiness and suffering that we know? This life is limited, so happiness and suffering are needed to extend this life as long as long as possible in terms of survival and reproduction Afterlife is eternal, so there is no need for happiness and suffering to extend eternal life There is no dualism of happiness and suffering in afterlife in terms of life itself However, if there is a purpose in afterlife, happiness is the encouragement to enhance this purpose, while suffering is the warning about the disorder that hurts this purpose What is the afterlife purpose that we know? In natural selection in the biological evolution, fitness enhances biological survival In supernatural selection, the supernatural selects human as the chosen species, the harmonious social life as the chosen social life, and the harmonious society as the chosen society Harmony is the purpose of the supernatural Human in afterlife is dependent on the supernatural, so happiness in afterlife associates with harmony, while suffering in afterlife associates with disharmony Whoever believes in harmony and behaves accordingly continues to exist in afterlife as described in the Bible, Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city… They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads There will be no more night They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light And they will reign for ever and ever (Revelation 22:1-5) The verses show that the human existences in afterlife are dependent on the harmony (the Lamb) Whoever does not believe in harmony and hurts harmony ceases to exist in afterlife as described in the Bible, For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten (Ecclesiastes 9:5) 119 Conclusion: the universal truth and the identity The main purpose of life in organism is the survival and reproduction of identity Identity is, inevitably, necessary for humans Being a book for people and society, the Bible has the identity Therefore, the believers in the Bible follow both the universal truth and the identity as the Universal Bible and the Identity Bible Scientists, on the other hand, follow the universal truth without explicit identity, although science may have implicit identity as paradigm in “The Structure of Scientific Revolutions”107 by Thomas Kuhn The Bible is not a scientific book The Identity Bible is necessary and inevitable The identity in the Bible includes the supernatural identity, the human identity, and the social identity The supernatural identity is the giver of the universal truth The human identity and the social identity are the selected people and the selected societies by God to be the keepers of the universal truth Almost all important selected people in the Bible have faults, and all selected social groups have defects There is no glorification of the selected people and selected groups There is no glorification of the selected identity For the Old Testament, the universal truth is the abstract morality free of the immorality of the activated dehumanized prey-predator instinct The selected people by God are the keepers of the moral laws For the New Testament, the universal truth is the abstract rebirth into the harmonious society with minimum social barrier The selected people by God are the keepers of the harmonious society with minimum social barrier The universal truth is within us Everyone can be a keeper of the universal truth No one person or social group can inherit and own the selected identity without the universal truth The universal truth defines the identity in the Bible In the Bible, the natural identity of humans can be seen in the universal truth of the six-day creation for cosmology and the original humans for human evolution The sixday creation can be explained scientifically The first day corresponds to the emergence of the current asymmetrical dual universe of the observable light universe with light and the hidden dark universe without light from the simple and dark pre-universe The dark universe coexisting with the observable light universe later becomes dark energy connecting with the light universe The second day corresponds to the separation of incompatible dark matter and baryonic matter for the formation of galaxies The third day corresponds to the separation of interstellar medium and star with planet where organisms were developed The fourth day, the fifth day, and the sixth day corresponds to the solar system formation, the primitive organism formation, and the advanced organism formation, respectively The sixday creation provides the answers for cosmology, the unified theory, dark energy, dark matter, the galaxy formation, and human evolution The uniqueness of the original humans in the image of God is explained by human social lives The three basic human social lives are yin, yang, and harmony for feminine collective wellbeing, masculine individualistic achievement, and harmonious cooperation, respectively The harmonious social life transcends yin yang and exists only in humans Human social lives were derived from human evolution, including ape evolution and hominid evolution The harmonious social life was evolved to adapt to the small social group The prehistoric hunter-gatherer society was the harmonious society In the Bible, the religious identity of humans can be seen in the universal truth of the Prehistoric Eden, the Moral Covenant, and the Harmonious Covenant The Prehistoric Eden explains the Garden of Eden where the prehistoric human society interacted with the 120 supernatural Through the supernatural miracle (the non-representation of the natural physical laws), the supernatural selects the human harmonious society to survive by the supernatural revelation of the abstractness (the non-representation of the expression of the natural human mind) During the Upper Paleolithic Period, the supernatural revealed the abstract bond for bonding the isolated social groups to survive the harsh environment The emergence of civilization by the Neolithic Revolution of the agricultural-nomad society caused the exit from the Garden of Eden by taking the fruit of the knowledge of civilization God provides the abstract morality to prevent the activated dehumanized prey-predator instinct in the civilized society, resulting in the Moral Covenant between God and the chosen moral civilized society, Israel God provides the abstract rebirth for the civilized people to return to the harmonious social life and society, resulting in the Harmonious Covenant between God and the chosen harmonious society, the Christian church The Postmodern Unified Society fulfills the end time prophecy for the end of the old divided society and the beginning of the new unified society The followers of harmony continue to exist in afterlife The Universal Bible provides the universal meaning to the global human race, history, and society In this way, the Universal Bible can be applied to anywhere in the universe 121 Email address: Website (download all books): Books list: Reference einsnewt@yahoo.com
