Bible Coded with Mathematics?

[JCTheCreation]

Do any of you believe that the Bible contains messages other than the literal meanings? Wouldn't Gods original word be mathematics, numbers, equations, geometry, etc, since it is the only language that cannot be corrupted by man? How many folks believe in a young universe as opposed to a universe and world that is billions of years old? One reason why I believe Gods word is more than meets the eye, and is embedded in mathematical code, is because of The Rainbow Covenent God made with man.
A Rainbow is to color, as mathematics is to numbers. All mathematical equations can be made mixing numbers and all colors can be made mixing the rainbow. Just wanted to know if anyone else has made that correlation and if they think it has any significance. Thank you! God bless!

Why can't it be corrupted by man?

Why can't it be corrupted by man?

Because mathematics is an observational study. Numbers can't lie. Example, If you hold up all ten fingers, there is no way you can count anything but 10 fingers. Math and numbers can be misunderstood but not changed. In Genesis, when man was all in one place and spoke one language, God said that man had learned how to bake bricks and built a tower that reached the heavens. And that anything man wanted was not out of his grasp. So he confused their language. I believe the language was some type of mathematics.

Sorry, I'm going forward off a couple assumptions. The first, you believe the bible to be written by men, the second...you believe men have free will.

So unless I'm wrong on one of those two points, I ask again, why can't it be corrupted?

I don't think he said the Bible can't be corrupted...he said mathematical language cannot be corrupted.

I don't think he said the Bible can't be corrupted...he said mathematical language cannot be corrupted.

Sure, but the premise is that the bible is written in a mathematical language...

But I suppose if he had an answer he liked he would've given it by now.

If there really is a God, who wants his creation to know his word, why would he bother with embedded mathematical codes? Why would we even need Bible translations? Why wouldn't God just use his supernatural powers to make scripture immediately clear and unambiguous to every person in the world, no matter what his native language?

Scriptures are written to appeal to the emotional needs of believers, not to advance mathematical knowledge.

So no.

The only possible answer is that if God exists it doesn't want people to understand him unambiguously.

It's an odd proposition, but this means that either God is fine with the presentation that religious people give for it's nature or simply doesn't care what humans think at all.

Or, even more terrifying, it wants us to work though this whole idea on our own.

People sure like to see patterns where none exist, don't they.

Yep. Our brains evolved as pattern-seeking engines. Which has survival value. When you see and hear leaves rustling in a bush, it's better to conclude a dangerous predator or enemy is waiting to ambush you, than to believe it's just the wind. Even though, the wind is probably all it is. Natural selection favored the ability to connect the dots into a coherent pattern, even when the dots are random.

You should have a little more faith.

If this doesn't convince you of divine Truth then I don't know what will!

There are no mathematical codes in the bible.

You don't see it?

You must be Protestant.

I guess doggy issues are doggy discerned.

I don't

If there is a god, and it wanted to convey a "word" to us, would it even need to use language?

How many folks believe in a young universe as opposed to a universe and world that is billions of years old?

Unfortunately there are too many, why do you ask?

One reason why I believe Gods word is more than meets the eye, and is embedded in mathematical code, is because of The Rainbow Covenent God made with man.

Interesting, I believe the author of Genesis simply attributed rainbows to the supernatural because there was no other explanation for rainbows back then.

A Rainbow is to color, as mathematics is to numbers. All mathematical equations can be made mixing numbers and all colors can be made mixing the rainbow. Just wanted to know if anyone else has made that correlation and if they think it has any significance. Thank you! God bless!

My thoughts-
Because you sincerely believe that the bible is the word of a real god, you try in your own mind to rationalise things to fit that conclusion.
