Dear Neville, Comparing this with the 'gospel of the stars' is almost an insult, its just the same as someone accusing you of being a 'flat Earther'. If I understand you correctly, you fully accept the O.T. The O.T is full of these numerical phenomena in such a way as it cannot possibly be accidental, therefore it is safe to assume the same applies to the N.T. This phenomena cannot be of man's origin. You couldn't begin to find this in any other book. There is no 'jiggery-pokery' or 'hocus-pocus' in this observed phenomena. It's there and cannot be ignored. Both Hebrew and Greek have numerical values to their letters. This is how the Hebrew scribes made sure that the copies of the scriptures they wrote were accurate both literarily and numerically. Would you like to offer a plausible reason how these sequences came about? I take your dismissal as reflecting an 'eyes closed' stance.

Numerology is basically the same sort of thing as "Bible codes," and "gospel in the stars" is a mixture of astrology, pagan deities and predestination. Regards, Neville.

I hasten to add that this must no be confused with the nonsensical book called 'The Bible Codes'. I have attached a couple of pages that show that the Bible could not have been the invention of mere men but had a divine origin, dare I say 'The Holy Spirit'? May I suggest you look at these attachments first and then perhaps check-out the link below. However I do attach a warning to much of what is on the web generally as it is seen by some as a 'band-wagon' to be climbed on. Some discernment will be necessary when surfing the web! http://asis.com/~stag/godcount.html Jack Lewis www.classiccarartist.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Yahoo!
