Bible Code

[wannagohome]

It should be noted, however, that the codes are not meant to be a system of divination. But what these codes do is prove a systematic and complex design within the confines of the Word of the Living God. In so doing, they prove the mastery of an Author beyond our own comprehension and existence.

I agree, I think they go to show us how much God can do, that we never could. Jen

Codes=nonsense. The 'Moby Dick' challenge actually provided more and better predictions than Scripture. It's nonsense so the gullible spend their money.

I honestly don't know what to think about the 'Bible Code'. I honestly don't think it's authentic though. They've found 'codes' in other books as well.

In the code searches of books like Moby Dick, War and Peace, The Wizard of Oz and even works like the Gita of the Hindu Faith, many words were found. The argument isn't about predictions, but context and content. The Bible codes all fit within the confines of their respective portions of Scripture as to subject matter. Whereas, in the other books, though words are found, they have nothing to do with predictions nor the subject matter of their respective portions whatsoever. Within the Bible codes there is more frequency of codes than in the other works mentioned.

That is just not true.

 

[Netzari5730]

well, then, it comes down to this...

Prove it, prove me a liar, and show me the predictions in Moby Dick or any other writing mentioned above.

Google yourself. This code nonsense was ripped apart by several groups of mathematicians notably a group based at CalTech led by Barry Simon (I think it was Simon). It's mathematical garbage that can be performed on any text. And the whole "Moby Dick" episode was a huge black eye for the code pushers.

As I said - do your own research, Googling is easy. Plus the fact that this code nonsense remains a fringe belief tells much.

I guess what bothered me about the first book (and I didn't read the other) was that it said something to the effect of: "everything you ever needed to know is found hidden in the text." To me, everything we need to know is written in the text itself

The second book was much stranger, and kind of hard to follow. I don't think anyone should base everything on the Code. I just believe it to be possible. Jen

Amen!

Aparently you haven't read carefully what I have posted. It isn't a matter of mathematics, though, of course it is involved. Like i have said. the codes that are discovered coincide with the context of the Biblical portions from which they are found. the so-called Moby Dick codes and other writings do not do this. Of course the Moby Dick episode didn't mention anything about context and subject matter, did they? After all the words they found had nothing to do with the subject matter of the text. Of course we can find anything in any written work. If you would have read my posts I did not deny this. Look at the examples that I have given in my first post, they not only have the particular names involved, but they coincide with the subject matter of their respective Biblical portions. Does Moby Dick do this? No. The Gita? No. The Koran? No. War and Peace? No. No other work does this, only the Bible Codes.

You don't get it do you. When they used War and Peace, or Moby Dick or the Bible or the Torah you can get ELS sequences of anything. Absolutely anything. It's ****!

Ummm...okay.

so why don't you give us an example? Jen

I don't believe in it at all. The Hebrew system of numerological interpretation of verses or words was Genmatria as I recall; this bears no relation to that. I can certainly point you to the arguments for and against however if anyone is genuinely interested, but I am afraid I think it is a load of nonsense. I could however be wrong, but as the books make certain predictins then in the fullness of time all wll be revealed?
