It sounds interesting!

I dont know much about this Bible Code stuff. This sounds more convincing than the old stuff when people were trying to tell the future with it. i Kinda believe in it because I do know that if you read the Torah in Original ancient Hebrew, if you write down every 7th letter on a piece of paper to spells "I am Yahweah" over and over and over throughout the entire Torah. I found that very interesting.

I just wonder why books like this, if they are correct in their conclusions and results, are so obscure. This article was posted in 2005, the book published in 2004, yet a cursory search on Google turned up no reults for current non Christian reviews of the book,or it's findings. I did however find dozens of links to sites that had the book for sale.
How does the common man test the veracity of books such as this? I guess we don't. Or maybe, by what Jesus says in 2Tomothy 4:3-4, we can surmise that the book has reveived little attention from the secular world BECAUSE the author has revelaed another absolute truth about our Father's Word.

It's "mathematically interesting", but I don't trust anything that can't be independently verified. The people who boast about the secret codes of the torah have a very unscientific way of going about it, and have kept everything very proprietary. They like to say "This is in there", and "we found this", but the methods they used are extremely suspect.

Now Violet...you know I'm into the mysterious and unknown, huh?

I studied up on this because it was one of those things that just tickled me. I even asked my pastor. "If God wants you to know something," he told me, "He's going to come right out and say it. He's not going to beat around the bush."

I read up on the Bible Code, and then I read what some of the skeptics were saying, too. Interesting, that there was some book of maritime law floating around out there. The skeptics applied the same techniques to this law book, and they found the words: THE LAW OF THE SEA or something like that. They also found the prediction of the death of the author of The Bible Code.

That proved, they said, that in almost any publication heavy enough to be used as a doorstop, you're bound to find predictions and hidden messages...if you're willing to dig deep enough to find them.

I myself downloaded the software and used it on a Stephen King book (just to see what would happen).

Interesting...MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT.

^^^ It means if you look hard enough into anything, you are likely to find something that appears to be relevant. Doesn't mean it's a code, just means you are trying to hard.
