BREAKING THE BIBLE CODES - Part 1
The Bible Code has become all the rage among many Hebrew and Christian scholars.
Bible code research is said to date back to at least the 12th century, when rabbinical scholars first wrote about discovering meaningful words hidden in the Hebrew text of the Torah.
Tradition among the most devout Jewish scholars holds that everything and everyone that ever was or ever will be was recorded in the text of the first five books of the Bible. Thus, as it was passed down letter by letter from God to Moses, then generation by generation to modern times, great care has been taken to preserve it intact. Rabbis encouraged caution in Torah copyists by reminding them that just one letter lost in their work could bring about the end of the world.
Only very slight changes have occurred in the original text over the 3,200 years since Moses first received it – a wonder that ranks among the great miracles of the ages.
It was during the last attempt to exterminate the Hebrew people, the final solution of the Holocaust, that Michael Ber Weissmandl , a Slovakian rabbi, continued his study of ancient writings by scholars who had found secret terms encoded in the Torah. But the Nazis were descending on his village, and the majority of his time was taken up with negotiating for the lives of people.
Rabbi Weissmandl, in fact, invented an outrageously bold scheme to ransom European Jews by bribing Nazi officials. The plan was workable, but no one could or would provide the $4 million the Germans demanded to save the lives of two million people, a mere $2 per person.
He himself was ultimately rounded up with his family and put on a death train to the camps. With him he took only a loaf of bread and three books, two copies of the Torah and a dusty commentary by a 13th century scholar mentioning the hidden codes. Alone, Weissmandl escaped the death train and eventually made his way to the U. S., where he was able to continue his research. And yet, he was tortured by grief. His devastating regret was that he had not been able to rescue even one of his children. He died of a broken heart in 1957.
Just a quarter of a century later, there was a fortuitous convergence of occurrences that were to move the codes from obscurity into the international spotlight. The war that brought death and devastation to so many lives also gave the world the most fiendishly clever code ever developed – Germany’s the Enigma Code. Breaking this code raised the study of statistics and probabilities to new heights, and brought about the invention of the computer.
Some time later, the advent of the personal computer made it possible to carry out searches for codes in seconds that had taken previously hours and even days to do. Researchers inspired by Weissmandl’s work, and using it as a starting point, began to develop the software necessary to perform these searches.
Thirdly, there was an awakening of faith among the brightest minds in Judaism. Previously atheistic or religiously disinterested scientists and intellectuals began to find themselves attracted to the most orthodox beliefs. As word of the codes spread around the world, many of these men began to devote themselves to study of the Torah and the unraveling of these codes.
Two of these scientists, a former physics graduate student, Doron Witztum, and a world-renowned mathematician, Eliyahu Rips, along with Yoav Rosenberg, an Israeli computer whiz, stunned the scientific world in 1994 with the publication of their paper on the codes in the journal Statistical Science.
This eventually resulted in the publishing of the First book “The Bible Code” by Michael Drosnin which was very popular when it first came out and which led to a follow up “The Bible Code 2” and many other subsequent books on this particular style of Code..
…But IS THIS STYLE OF CODE THE ONLY CODE IN THE BIBLE?
The Bible itself is really much more than religious ideas and stories and it should not take any major scholarship to quickly see that some books cannot be understood easily without knowing the codes used to write them.
Ezekiel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel and in fact all the prophetic books (ESPECIALLY THE REVELATION OF JOHN) rely heavily on allegorical codes and if we were to assume to understand these books without the proper tools to decode them then any attempt to do so would be like trying to read a foreign language without a translator.
Unfortunately this is my major beef with the teachings of DISPENSATIONALISM.
Dispensationalism is a westernized, 18th Century LITERALIST attempt to decode the Bible without really having the writers original decoding texts or methodology.. Thus what is popularly being preached and taught these days in most of the worlds Conservative Christian churches is flawed (and has been for so long that the errors are accepted as truth.. Without question).
I was raised in these teachings myself and it took a great deal of time, sweat, doubt, prayers and even tears of frustration before I was willing to let go of the dogma and doctrine to seek the TRUTH of the Spirit.. In essence..
…LET GO AND LET GOD!
I waded through many waters of varied ideas , religions and faiths as I sought to know the truth. I had been taught all the popular precepts about the meanings of scripture but something always seemed missing or wrong… oh, it all made sense based on my western logic that wanted a candlestick to be a candlestick but as I read the prophecies I realized that sometimes a candlestick meant something else.. In fact there seemed to be a plethora of odd items and allegorical creatures that if literalized would make the Bible less believable than the stories of Mother Goose.
Eventually I felt God’s inner call to do what I am now doing but as I asked God to reveal the truth I was to bring forward I felt the loving and compelling voice within clearly reveal that I was to speak the truth regarding LOVE & ZION
Inwardly my spirit heard over and over again “They have polluted the truth with the dogma’s of men and have divided my Kingdom of Zion in their delusion”.
HUH?, thought I, “What could this mean?.. I know what love is and I have heard of Zion… even attending Zion Lutheran School where I played Flag Football as a “Zion Lion .. But what could this mean?”
I began to look into the meaning of “Zion” and what I eventually discovered was that indeed this “NEW JERUSALEM” was clearly revealed in the Bible.. YET it was nothing like what was being taught by almost every pastor, preacher or televangelist I had ever heard.. Why was this OBVIOUS teaching so misunderstood?
This led me to the PROPHECY CODES which are based in the mystic teachings of the Hebrews (called Kabala/Cabala/Kabala). Now I realize some feel these teachings are somehow evil but most who say that have never even studied the history or read a word of any Kabalistic book.. Dismissing it as occult witchcraft or some such verboten thingamajig.
As I studied these teachings I found my faith actually growing as I realized the amazing ideas and concepts and CODES that were revealed.
Realize the basic teachings of Kabala existed since long before the New Testament was written and it is quite apparent ..based on the allegories used in The Revelation …that John was an avid student of Kabalism and used the codes therein to hide the fullness of the meaning of these texts until the proper time for them to be revealed.. Which would be …THE END OF DAYS.
I will expand on some of these teachings more over time and I admit that much of Kabalism is so deep that most scholars of it admit that “It is a process of spiritual understanding of which there are no masters.. Only students.”
(QUICK NOTE: The major reason that kabalism was included as “verboten texts” by the catholic and subsequent Christian churches was 1) It was too deep for the deciding councils to understand and was of Jewish origin and 2) It ultimately teaches each person that they stand individually as their own priest before God and that no man is to rule over another… Realize that the catholic faith wanted CONTROL and POWER and upheld European control structures SO if something existed that took away this control.. It was deemed heretical, occultism, witchcraft and thus …EVIL)
(NOTE ALSO: Not all people claiming to teach Kabala are qualified to do so and as in any other faith or idea there are those who teach more correctly than others.. So be careful as some of the teachings are very complex and it is not a study for casual “church-goer” types)
Now, I ask you… If one takes away the proper book to decode prophecy.. What will be the result?
ERROR… of course!… Then, one might ask, how shall such codes be understood?
Well, Read yesterdays Blog regarding the “Deception” and you will see what results when people begin to use “western culture” to decode “eastern spiritual wisdom”.
To decode properly one must shift there mind from Western linier thinking to Eastern Esoteric thought.. A shift not too easy for those in the west who love to line up columns and boxes and who feel that all things move only in a straight line.
Realize that the Bible IS a series of books written in Eastern countries and in THAT mindset.. Attempting to decode them 2000 or more years later using our own westernized values and views is actually quite ludicrous and always will result in confusion, mistranslation, misunderstanding and error.
In my next blog on Bible Codes I will reveal some of the misconceptions in decoding prophecy and how to more clearly understand the “Names/Definitions Code” based on the motives of the prophets rather than the ideas of Western Dispensational thinking.
I am going to challenge and enlighten many of you when I reveal the original prophetic and allegorical MEANINGS of “Israel”, “Jerusalem” and “Zion” not as taught in most of today’s churches but as understood by those willing to actually study and learn the real key as intended by the prophets.
I don’t feel my views will be popular (Scripture predicts that most will call me a fool).
I am sort of a rebel.. A modern day spiritual Copernicus … since I am willing to take the heat of being branded a heretic by men to be right with God.. I believe my message I share is my duty, calling and purpose and you can agree or disagree but if I am right then what I will share with you on the next CODE blog may save you from having to endure a coming tribulation.
If you are waiting for a Rapture to come and take you before then may I give you a couple of homework assignments:
1) Go to Bible Gateway at www.biblegateway.com .. Pick your favorite version of the Bible and do a word search on TWO WORDS: A) “Rapture” and B) “Zion” . If a word is mentioned more than another word I think it can be safely assumed the word mentioned more times has greater important.. Right?
2) Read MATTHEW 24: verses 29 & 30 Carefully and tell me according to that Gospel “WHEN DOES JESUS CLEARLY SAY THAT THE SON OF MAN APPEARS IN THE HEAVENS?.. Pre, mid or post trib?
ZIONISM and CHRISTIAN ZIONISM is NOT BIBLICAL!
The reason there is a verse that says
Jeremiah 50:5a
They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward.
It is one of the many Zion verses that blatantly infers that people have forgotten how to find Zion and if Zion were in the Nation of Israel there would be no reason to ask.
Also before I depart for this Blog consider the song “We are Marching to Zion” sung in many churches. This song declares that Christians believe we must “Go” or “March” there.. Yet if the end is coming and I live here in the US am I to get a plane ticket and go to Israel.. The song itself and many verses declare that to avoid the Tribulation (of those end days) we must TAKE ACTION.. Not just stand and wait for God to “rapture us”.
Yes.. I pray I can reach even the 144,000 people God has promised will make it into Zion and avoid Tribulation.. To the rest of you WE WILL BE BACK TO PICK YOU UP after the messy part is over.. Care to join us in Zion or wait? It’s your choice.
For those of other faiths do not worry.. Zion (under many names.. See my list at www.wwjsnl.com ) is available to anyone and requires not much more than a belief in your inner calling and action to obey that inner calling (leap of faith …so to speak) . Admittance will be available to anyone who enters by faith and not “religion based“ at all.
The whole tribulation mess will balance things so those who now “get off” on feeling superior and looking forward to all the “bloody revenge” they think will be theirs to enjoy will be made low enough to understand the true LOVE that cannot wish harm on others for GOD IS LOVE.. And if there is vengeance it shall be upon those seeking revenge.
PART 2 - Coming Soon
BE LOVE & BE LOVED!
