Call me crazy, but I think the secret to understanding and believing the Bible is to actually read it and think about what it says. Silly math games are superfluous.

But don't you understand? The Holy Spirit needs help from eminent "mathematicians" like Grant Jeffrey with too much time on their hands.

Not superfluous to the person who 'by some means' needs that to move toward faith.

God is gracious, incredibly gracious to all.

He scatters His evidence across the Heavens and the microscopes of reality in great diversity.

I'm NOT ABOUT to tell HIM what He can't do or use to draw people to HIMSELF.
