Mathematics bombshell: God 'confirmed in Bible'
World Net Daily ^ | December 12, 2004

Posted on 12/12/2004 3:07:51 AM PST by The Loan Arranger

For a lot of people, the Bible and mathematics are dry subjects, but not for Edwin Sherman – he believes he's found how the two fit together.

Sherman, founder of the Isaac Newton Bible Code Research Society and a professional mathematician, is convinced that the Hebrew Bible contains coded messages that are evidence of God's authorship of the Bible. His book, "Bible Code Bombshell: Compelling Scientific Evidence that God Authored the Bible," describes numerous examples of encoded phrases and sentences that are both lengthy and relevant to the text where they were found.

I think, to borrow from the post, that such numrical "coincidence" for lack of a better word, is impressive.

What is, on the other hand, convincing, are simple facts such as the obvious integrity of the books of The Torah AND the prescence of MEANINGFUL codes in the text.

We cannot know the mind of God so there is little point in "trying to figure Him out". But we ARE capable of understanding what is 'impossible'.

It is IMPOSSIBLE that The Word Of God on earth can have meaning if it is not ABSOLUTELY fixed. The codes themselves would be impossible if so much as one character were out of place, but the IDEAS themselves that God would transmit to us in the plain text of The Torah would dissolve if SOMEONE were not charged with KEEPING THEM FIXED.

Hence His "chosen people".

I believe that if the Jews were to leave the earth that God would destroy it.

No Torah--No God.

No God--No Jesus.

No Jews--No Torah


The Jews are perservers of the very words of God. That is why they are dogged by great Satanic forces. Destroy the Jews and you kill God.

I look for the simple, knowable thing. The 'whys' of God are unknowable. The Prescence of him is observable if you look for the simple impossibility.

Isn't He wonderful? I was thinking about this stuff and I was reminded that because He is infinite, He will be teaching us new things forever - zero monotony, zero boredom. Endless summer...

Well said.

God sometimes gives us some clues to some why's.

But I mostly agree with you across the board.

Thanks for a great response.
