Look, I don't care how many websites you give me supporting this heresy, it doesn't make it a fact.
= = = =
Evidently I've failed to communicate clearly.
It does not have ANYthing to do with the number of websites.
It has to do with:
1. God and His tweaking of the super rationalists, naturalists, atheists etc. . . . some of whom have become believers through the codes.
2. Basic logic regarding basic facts and God's nature, priorities, preferences.
3. Basic scientific facts involving astronomical probabilities well beyond chance to the extreme.
The number of websites has nothing to do with it.
Well D-U-H!!! Wasn't there a particular group of people ticked off at Mel Gibson in 2004 about The Passion of the Christ!
= = = =
Jumping tracks in the middle of an illogical argument doesn't make the case well for me, at all.
1. Such groups of people had absolutely no influence on the structure etc. of the Codes found about Mel in 2004. THAT WAS A STRICTLY STATISTICAL, MATHEMATICAL PROCESS. I thought that was better known.
One would think that even naysayers throwing illogical rocks would know the basics of the issues and science involved. Amazing.
I'm sorry but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out an Orthodox Jewish translator of the code, Moshe Aharon Shak, all of a sudden finding a code calling Mel names and trying to grind his name in the dirt JUST about the same time The Passion is being released, that it's not science, it's vengeance!!
Do you honestly think that God has it in for Mel Gibson for making The Passion of the Christ as this man is trying to claim? For simply retelling the last hours of our Blessed Lord on earth? That movie helped to bring a lot of people to Jesus Christ and was a great evangelical tool. Yeah, Mel Gibson is ROTTEN TO THE CORE over that one! Good grief! I bet God is going to send him to the lowest pits of Hell over that!
I have a lot of faith and confidence in the objectivity of the Jewish scholars involved in code research. IIRC, more than one of them have has become a believer in Jesus as their Messiah as a result of the code research.
I won't begin to guess God's thinking and feelings about any number of people, including the complex character of Mel Gibson. And, some would say God spoke in hyperbole in parts of the Old Testament. He can choose to do so about Mel for whatever reasons.
He does happen to be
. . . .
drum roll . . .
. . . .
GOD!
ACTUALLY,
The objectivity, biases, whatever of the Jewish scholars doing the code research doesn't really have much to do with anything about the codes as long as they are honest. But even if they were dishonest--which none have been--THE CODE ANALYSIS IS STRICTLY MATHEMATICAL AND OBJECTIVE.
Even the interpretation of the resulting Hebrew is limited to relatively few options and often one or two options which are all listed as possibilities.
I think the good Jewish scholars are owed an apology.
I hope when I pontificate, I have a better grasp of the topic concerned.
I've got a drum roll for you!
"I am against the prophets that have lying dreams, saith the Lord: and tell them, and cause my people to err by their lying, and by their wonders: when I sent them not, nor commanded them, who have not profited this people at all, saith the Lord."
Another one from Jeremiah:
"I did not send prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied."
I have a lot of faith and confidence in the objectivity of the Jewish scholars involved in code research. IIRC, more than one of them have has become a believer in Jesus as their Messiah as a result of the code research.
What are you doing putting your faith in Jewish scholars of some heretical code? Shouldn't your faith be in Jesus Christ who revealed ALL truth? They have no truth to share with you. They'll be happy to take your money though for their secrets. How many Bible code books have you purchased? I noticed on the website, BibleCode Digest that you gave us, they couldn't reveal the latest "bombshell." No, you have to buy that before they will tell you. They are making merchandise of people.
It shouldn't be a fake Bible code brining them to Jesus Christ. It should be the clear words of Sacred Scripture. If they can't see it there, I feel for them.
Don't hold your breath if you expect one from me. They should be apologizing for ripping people off of their money for this heresy.
Doesn't happen to be fake.
My faith is 100% solidly in Christ Jesus.
And in all HE does.
He is . . . the LIVING WORD.
On that we can agree and it doesn't take a code to figure it out.
I suspect The Lord God Almighty is not pleased when anyone--especially His Beloved Blood Israel folks--and diligent, earnest scholars of His written Word--are falsely accused of dishonesty.
If that is suppose to scare me, it doesn't. The Lord also expects us to speak out against those who are dishonest.
I'm confident The Lord has an accurate assessment in this and all other cases.
Quix: Please do not speak for the Lord until you are in the program. Thanks.

Let me know when these bible codes provide ADVANCE notice of a seemingly-unpredictable event.
What does the Bible Code say about Cynthia McKinney's Bodyguards making anti-Semitic statements election night in Georgia which were FAR worse than anything Mel Gibson said.
McKinney Supporters Blaming Jews
This article covers up the rest of the remarks they made, but I saw it on O'Reilly. The media present were called by McKinney's bodyguards, "Jew Boys" and several choice names that I can not repeat in the Religion Forum. Hmmph! Ironic that the Bible Code scholars haven't found that one...yet!
I'll try and speak as I'm convinced The Lord would have me speak the rest of my life . . . as I have increasingly endeavored to do heretofore.
It is HIS program I subscribe to. None other.
I don't usually advise scoffing at things The Lord does or is about. Actually, never. Don't think I'll start.
Further, you are taking another's work and ascribing the Lord's name to it.
The program starts when your spiritual blindness is healed.
I pray that everyone's spiritual blindness be healed.
I personally expect Jesus Christ THE MESSIAH to arrive back in our time/space dimension
1. to meet us in the air as Scripture describes
2. to come as THE MAJESTIC CONQUERING KING as Revelation describes.
I'm not real impressed with net versions of a lot of things.
