Institute of Divine Metaphysical Research

Institute of Divine Metaphysical Research

The Institute of Divine Metaphysical Research (IDMR) is a religious group founded in 1931 by Henry Clifford Kinley, author of "Elohim the Archetype (Original) Pattern of the Universe". The group considers itself a school rather than a church, using charts to teach the stories and messages of the Bible. Members of the group use Yahweh and Yahshua as the names of God and Jesus, believing these are the sacred names. IDMR has more than 9,000 members worldwide.
