where is the concept of positive and negative in the Bible?
the terms positive and negative are products of new age and eastern mysticism, and they reduce God to a 'god of forces', an impersonal energy that can be manipulated by our will... a ying yang dualism where everything has a good side and bad side...
positive and negative are subjective and we tend to identify things as positive if it is something that we like and negative if something uncomfortable... we like it because it places us in the judgement seat to determine what is good and what is bad...
The Bible on the other hand endorses the Truth as defined by God and speaking the Truth motivated by Love.
Truth is not positive or negative. Truth just is...
God determines what is good and bad, and He created everything good, but many things have been corrupted by sin and rebellion...

I like this and will share the idea with my wife tonight. We spend a lot of time talking about things being positive and negative and I have noticed that whenever she accuses me of being negative, I usually say I'm not being negative, I'm just telling the truth. I believe in absolute truth and I disagree with relativism.... thanks for giving me something to think more about. Please visit my blog too, www.everythingandGod.com
