Ha, I remember that one! Xlintoon, however, did have a habit of using Scripture in perversely altered ways. These toon quotes were in regular news articles, from fund-raising speeches and the like. Subtle as a serpent.

Some Bibles can get burned, Earth may pass away some day and there may be a new heavens and new Earth created, but God's Word will never pass away.

God's Word, contained in the Bible, is as immortal and eternal as God is Himself.

My friend, to me there is a huge difference between building a tower (a la Babel) to reach God, and one designed for other purposes.

To answer your inquiry, those that believe will find the answer that they think fits the situation best. Those that do not will find some other answer.

I think God is all around us - every day and at all times. He sends us the sunrise and sunset, the rain, moon and stars, our wives and daughters, our friends or even an old dog to remind us of His presence. Sometimes it could be a tragedy or natural disaster, but I take comfort that He is near.

Whatever, little moon/war demon-gods do not leave Bible pages floating around.

Perhaps not, but his worshippers certainly did--along with a lot of dead Americans...

Touche'

The Mysterious 11 and the World Trade Center Bombing

NOTE: The purpose of this article is intended in no way to trivialize, diminish, or discount the terrible tragedy that took place on September 11, 2001. Our hearts and prayers go out to the thousands of parents, husbands, wives, children and friends whose loved ones were senselessly and unmercifully murdered.

Neither is it intended to be a condemnation or judgement of America. As a proud American, I love my country, and consider it the greatest nation on earth.

This article is an examination of a phenomenon in the light of the Bible, God’s Word.

On Tuesday, September 11, 2001, the worst tragedy in the history of the United States occurred, as American Airlines Flight 11 bombed into the World Twin Tower. As authorities were frantically searching for what went wrong on Flight 11, just 55 minutes later, like a speeding missile, with 92 innocent people, American Airlines Flight 77 exploded through Twin Towers number two. No one who has seen the TV scenes of the airplanes turned deadly missile exploding into the Trade Center, full of innocent victims, can ever be the same.

Our country was shattered. . .

Our lives were shattered. . .

For many, their loved ones and dreams were shattered. . .

In such a terrible and senseless tragedy, it’s only natural to search for some possible "hidden" meaning. Is there a deeper reason for such a tragedy? Is God trying to get America’s attention? Why did God allow something so evil to happen? Could something so devastating, so evil, so senseless, happen and God not have something to say?

Many people have emailed about the numerous occurrences of the number "eleven" found in the disastrous events associated with the September 11th World Trade Center Bombing.

  • The day of the attack: 11
  • The Date of the Attack, Spetember 11 or 9/11 = 9 + 1 + 1 = 11
  • 911 is emergency number = 9 + 1 + 1 = 11
  • September 11th is the 254th day of the year: 2 + 5 + 4 = 11
  • After September 11th we have 111 remaining for the end of the year.
  • 119 is the Area Code for Iran & Iraq 1 + 1+ 9 = 11
  • The first plane to hit one of the buildings was Flight 11
  • The State of New York was the 11th State to join the Union
  • New York City = 11 letters
  • Afghanistan = 11 letters
  • The Pentagon = 11 letters
  • Flight 11 had 92 passengers, 9 + 2 = 11
  • Flight 77 had 65 passengers, 6 + 5 = 11
  • Twin Towers look like an 11
  • Twin Towers had 110 floors

Does the repeatedly occurrences of the number eleven have a deeper meaning?

Or are they just a weird coincident?

Note. There is also another unusual occurrences of another number that we’ll look at later.

As any serious Bible student knows, God has specific meanings for certain numbers. Several books have been written about the Bible and numbers, such as, Biblical Mathematics by Ed. F. Vallowe, Bible Numerics by Dr. Peter S. Ruckman, Number in Scripture by E.W. Bullinger, Numbers in the Bible by Robert D. Johnston, and Triskaidekaphodia - The Fear Of The Number 13 by Dr. Paul Heaton.

Bulllinger, writes in his excellent book, Number in Scripture:

"The question which we have to answer is--Is number used with design or by chance? Surely if God uses it, it must be with infinite wisdom and with glorious perfection. And so it is. Each number has its own significance . . . Numbers, . . . and their secrets, hold an important place in the words as well as in the works of God. . ."
(E.W. Bullinger, Number in Scripture, pp. 20-21)

Ed Vallowe, writes in Biblical Mathematics:

"If the Bible is an inspired Book as it claims to be, are not its numbers as well as its words inspired? One of its books is called 'Numbers'. . . One out of every five Scriptures in the Bible contains a number. . .The Bible is a book from beginning to end that is built upon a vast system of numbers which is interwoven with the doctrines of the Word of God."
(Ed F. Vallowe, Biblical Mathematics, p. 20)
One example of the Bible's unique meanings to numbers, is the dreaded number 666 – the mark of the Beast, mentioned in Revelation 13:18.
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Revelation 13:18

The Bible clearly associated the number SIX with man. Rev. 13:18 reads ". ..for it is the number of a man. . "

This number-six-man correlation is found throughout the Bible.

Man was created on the SIXTH day:

Sorry, I didn't get the picture in.
