    has any one read it?
    what did you think?
    do you think the Bible codes are valid or a hoax?

    I have heard they have done the same thing with the novel Moby Dick

    does any one have an opinion on the bible codes?

    rsr, I think you have your codes mixed up. ;)

    Regardless, I think both of them (Bible codes and The Da Vinci Code) are untrue.

    Didnt Bible Codes originate with Maddona's lot - The Kabbalah?

    Very closely linked, Ben, although the modern version uses a bit different technique. Islam also has a similar tradition with the Koran.

    And, yes, I was beating the wrong dead horse.

    the Prophecies in the Psalms are not hidden and were fulfilled.
    Matthew 26: 54. But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
    55. In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.
    56. But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

    Matt. 27:35. And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

    Psalm 22:9
    Luke 2:40

    The Messiah would be abandoned by His disciples.
    Psalm 22:11
    Mark 14:50

    The Messiah would be encompassed by evil spirits.
    Psalm 22:12-13
    Colossians 2:15

    The Messiah's body would emit blood & water.
    Psalm 22:14a
    John 19:34

    The Messiah would be crucified.
    Psalm 22:14b

    Hoax! It's a topic that is making a few authors rich. That's it. There is no "bible code".

    LOL , I have their set of those books I got when I was a new Christian! I was into that big time. I should probably burn them so no one else can read them. Live and learn!

    I used to have it to. It is in my storage shed. I keep trash like that for research purposes only into false doctrines. I know how you feel though.

    Some researchers applied a formula similar to that of the "Bible code" to the "official" final version of "Mein Kampf" and came up with the names of God and Jesus many times, as well as the names of most of the people named in Scripture.(All in Deutsch, of course.) One could most likely apply such a program to the text of any English BV and come up with every "cussword" there is in English.

    Sorry, sports fans, these so-called "Bible codes" are NOT among the prophecies sealed unto the time of the end...they are merely someone's "cash cow", when in reality they're a bunch of "bull".
