It is said by physicists that all we see around us is mathematics…

Introducing something Jesus made… The Mandelbrot Set. (But discovered by Benoît

("ben-wa" [bənwa]) Mandelbrot.

What is it? A simple mathematical equation.

Zn = Zn-12 + C

Where you plot the results on…

A good old fashioned x-y graph.

Then you do something simple but weird with the numbers you plug in to it. You plug in something called an

imaginary number…

What is that?

Remember square roots?

4 2, 36 6, 1 1

What do you do with a negative number? You call it Imaginary or i

1 i

So what does it make?

Take out the X-Y axis lines…

How do you do it?

You test each point on the graph…

The colorcomes fromhow fastit zingsaway fromthe startpoint

If it doesn’t zing away…color it black.

Where is this leading to?

We’re getting there…hang on…

Our testimonies.

Be thinking about your testimony and the repeated truth he has spoken to and through your life and give us a Bible verse or Biblical truth (if you can’t think of the specific verse) that is illustrated by you on all levels.
