I just wanted to add some topics I thought might help with this discussion. The Lord gave me these insights based on personal experience. I would have never imagined these would be helpful. I do not know if any of you have ever studied foreign languages. One thing you quickly come to understand about any language is that when you convert anything from one language to another you can "gain" alot of meaning and "lose" alot of meaning in some parts. For example, this article can briefly hammer this home with Japanese to English and English to Japanese via terms that have no direct equivalent to English.

So with that in mind, what could be lost and gained if we go play with the Bible using the biblical languages they originally came from? The bible was originally part "Greek" and part "biblical Hebrew" concerning the old testament and new testament. Reading about the long history of the bible teaches us this. So do not hesitate to break open the concordances for both these languages and look up terms because you would be shocked to know how much more expanded the bible becomes when you expand specific terms to consider ever elusive topics. For example did anyone know the original word for "mark" can include alot more to the translation than one might first consider on a uninformed initial first inspection? Look up Strong's 5480 if your curious.

The other major topic I want to bring to consideration comes from Ezekiel Chapter 33. It heavily discusses "watchmen" and once we allow the word to reside inside of us we are to visualize and listen for things that are not in standard with the word ( be watchers on the wall ). For example, GOD's rainbow has 7 colors based on science. But will see some go out of their way to mess with GOD's work. like say the LGBT group's flag. it has six colors instead of seven for those that do not know!

The same issue can be raised again going back to knowing biblical hebrew and for those that do not know Monster energy drinks are the number because that symbol is the number six and there are three of them clearly denoted on the can.
Right here is what is needed to understand this.

And here is your Holy Bible citations to ensure you can't say this isn't related to study to being a good Christian follower. Oh on the contrary. Everything is the bible. history, language, science, and so much more.
