You don’t recognize the KJV? That is mostly what I read.. I kind of feel sorry for you... You laugh at people. You use news paper head lines in your assessments.. I use scripture. You use Bible Codes when the Bible says not to add or take away. If I am so wrong please feel free to explain the scriptures that I have posted.... Teach me...

Quix has some unusual and very diverse interests, but to me at least, his Christianity is not in doubt. You’re being very unfair.

As far as Bible Codes, how is this adding to or taking away? They’re there, and have been known to be there for going on close to a thousand years or more. Jewish tradition states that all that has ever been and ever will be is contained in Torah, our Pentaeuch. Isaac Newton spend the best part of his life searching for codes in the Bible. The Enigma Code was broken with the help of a Jew who studied those codes and recognized “ELS” codes there, in the Bible or Torah.

Where the trouble comes in, is in attempting to interpret these things. I’ve honestly begun to think that this represents the sealed book of Daniel and Revelation, myself.

As far as the KJV, I prefer it myself. A lot of people were persecuted and died to make that translation possible. It’s beautiful, like poetry, almost Shakespearean. But, it’s not the only true Bible out there. Perhaps Quix prefers to refer back to contemporary translations from the original languages?

The idea that the authentic variety of Bible Codes

add or take away ANYTHING from Scripture is silly.

authentic codes are

INHERENT IN THE VERY FABRIC OF SCRIPTURE

ONLY PLACABLE THERE BY GOD!

I might try more teaching if there was evidence of a sincere desire and capacity to learn what I might have to teach.

God Bless your new Grand Nephew.

I have, BTW, posted some teaching instruction to you—to absolutely no beneficial effect as far as I can tell. Does’t encourage further such bother.

BTW,

hotshot,

I haven’t used a single Bible Code on this thread.

Your mention of the phenomenon seems to be designed to be only and totally for the purposes of derision—and that—on this thread—exceedingly unfairly.

Yet you malign my Christianity.

Actually, I haven’t used a Bible Code on any thread for more than a year, IIRC.

I haven’t even bothered to check in to the main site very often in a long time. Just hasn’t been a priority.

Carrying an offense or a grudge is not particularly Christian, certainly over such a long period of time.
