That's correct. Threy are separated by space-time not just by
space. They are very close to one another, but they do not occupy the
same space-time or you would perceive them as one. Time is joined to
space and if you perceive a spatial difference, then you must admit a
temporal one as well.

You allow the machinery of your body and its rate of perception
with the reality of the matter. All things seemingly separated by
space are, in fact, separated by space-time. We've known this to be
true for almost 100 years.

Simply put, my friend, he can reach for the Kingdom of God. When
you accept that it is God that DOES, you will understand that God
rules. And when God rules in your heart, the Kingdom (the rulership)
of God is established within you.

It leads him to the Kingdom of God and it makes him understand that
'that which you do to others, you have done to yourself', as there is
only One.
