What about this gematria?
http://www.christianforums.com/t7715105
Depends on whether you're using it as a form of encryption or using it to foretell the future. If the latter, then you're off the reservation. For instance, I mark costs on my merchandise so I know what it cost me but the customers don't. So if there's a sticker on something that says "PTSS", I know I paid 15.99 for the item (and now you know the numeric letter values for 1, 5, and 9 in Jipsah Gematria). Nothing there offending against God's commandment forbidding divination. BUT, if I try, by some stupid means or the other, to use Jipsah Gematria as a form of numeromancy to predict or "divine" the future, then I am acting in violation of God's prohibition. St. John was giving the encoded name of the beast to those who he expected to know it. But what I see everyone who plays at numeromancy in these forums does is trying to predict when our Lord will return, and that is unquestionably divination, and an offense against the Law.Okay, it's clear that you believe Gematria is evil, but how do you explain "COUNTING THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST" which is what YHWH said to do?
Wash your hog, sir
You are rude! Like I told you in another thread, these are all curious speculations concerning non-essential eschatological information that might lead us to the identification of the antichrist. I am not agreeing with gematria, I am just asking a question to someone who is coming up with different answers. If you read the thread, you would find that I agree with the 70 weeks of Daniel as already being fulfilled. So now I can call you bonehead for your ignorant response. Do not respond to my posts.

Rudeness is subjective, so perhaps you find me so. But anything that leads off with numeromancy as its argument is hogwash, whether you find me saying so rude or not. Numeromancy, or, if you prefer, "gematria", is a pernicious fraud, and hence anything that depends on it is necessarily false and fraudulent. Over the years we've seen dozens of people set dates and name antichrists based on numeromancy, with a 100% failure rate. And the reason for that is simple - numeromancy is hogwash: a lie, a deceit, a fraud, and a deception. Trying to divine when our Lord will return based on it is in clear violation of God's prohibition of any form of divination. It's the stuff of soothsayers, fortune tellers, seers, "wizards who peep and mumble", "psychics", witches, and all others of similar ilk.You are rude!
It will surely lead you to the identification a one or more antichrists. Just pick one of the ones from the long list of antichrists that people have "identified", or identify one of your own. Just don't expect to arrive at anything approximating the truth.Like I told you in another thread, these are all curious speculations concerning non-essential eschatological information that might lead us to the identification of the antichrist.
Sorry, OM, it's a public forum. And anything based on numeromancy is still hogwash.So now I can call you bonehead for your ignorant response. Do not respond to my posts.
<Laugh> Which tranlates to "I don't like Preterism (orthodox or nay) a bit." So noted.Preterist critical error - practically everything from Genesis to Revelation, delusional thinking, scripturally insane, they do not believe YHWH's Word - a malignant Cancer... upsetting the faith of the Saints, good for absolutely nothing.

But just for grins, has sacrifice and oblation ceased, or not? If not, where's it happening? If so, then you're a Preterist. Choose well... <Grin>

No one says it is happening right now. It must start first, then it will be stopped. It ceased in 70 A.D. but that was not the stopping of which the bible was speaking. That will be done by the Antrichrist.
Yeah, I noted that you don't like it. So, do you reckon that the prophecy about sacrifice ceasing wasn't fulfilled, or that the fulfillment somehow didn't count? Gotta be one or the other, 'cause sacrifice hasn't been happening for a couple thousand years odd. So which is it? Which does you doctrine require you to do, deny historical fact, or deny the validity of that fact? Seems like Hobson's choice to me, since either way your doctrine requires to to either try and weasel around reality or deny it altogether.which translates as preterism is gross error, doctrines of demons.
Yeah, I noted that date-setters and their ilk are pretty free with flinging out anathemas. They're not too good at getting their dates right, though.preterism is anathema
Thank you for having thedecency to admit that simple fact (although that does make you a (gasp!) preterist and thus subject to Ebed's anathema. I hope that doesn't cause you too much consternation.)It ceased in 70 A.D.
Really? Says so right there on your doctrine, right?but that was not the stopping of which the bible was speaking.

Feel free to read the above paragraph again and again if you still think I'm a preterist.
