Can U Trust Bible' s Math?

   MATHEMATICAL PROOF as a set-up equation does not exist per say, however, if one is willing to dig, and you the READER, is willing to take the time to read this blog, then let's go!

   Most of us in the English speaking world,  have heard, or have read about Bible Prophecy, agree?
IF, one knows the history for the old empires of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greek under Alexander the Great, or the two Roman empires, pagan and religious, then read the Book of Daniels first seven chapters, with the knowledge that this was penned, 457 years. Please find my "Sure Word of Prophecy" in these blogs as Chapter  V's " GOD' s Preview of History #1.In the which foretold, the month and the year of Christ' s birth, death figured from His baptism as the start of His Ministry, and the end of Israel' s national Salvation, 3.5 years later, at the stoning death of Stephen!~ Plus the correct order and the naming of these empires but for the Rome, who had the power to eliminate the Bible.

  Now I ask YOU dear Readers, who could do this with such precision, and spot-on accuracy, but a Creator God, with the power to control events? Our Creator Father GOD, has given us over 300 prophecies in total and this will list just 8 of them:
                FORETELLING                               OLD BOOK      NEW TESTAMENT
 1. Christ the Messiah to be born in Bethlehem     Micah 5:2.......Matthew 2:1 & Luke 2:4-6.
2. He shall be of the blood line of Jacob               Numbers 24:7        Matt. 1:2.
3. He shall enter Jerusalem as a King on a donkey Zechariah 9:9.....    Mark 11:4-11.
4. He shall be betrayed by a friend.                      Psalm 41:9               Luke 22:47-28.
5 30pcs of silver the betrayal money-buy potter's flied. Zech. 11:13     Matt. 27:9-10.
6. His hands and feet, pierced.                            Psalm 22:16            John 20:25-27.
7. He shall be spat upon and struck by blows     Isaiah 50:6              Matthew 26:67.
8. Soldiers will gamble-cast lots for His garments. Psalm 22:18            Luke 23:34

There is NO WAY that one man could have fulfilled all of these just 8 prophecies unless there was a Divine Power in control shaping these events, and causing persons to act and re-act to these event as they were foretold!  Who else can control events? Who else can make predictions 1000' s of years in advance, and have them come to pass, as written and on time of those with a time factor, but GOD?
    A mathematical professor by the name of Peter Stones,who was the chairman of the Mathematics and astronomy departments of Pasadena City College until 1953. Then at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, Ca., where he served as Chairman of their Science Division.  He put the odds as 100 quadrillion, or 1 in 100,000,000,000,000, 000. To be sure science holds that anything beyond the power of 1 to a billion as being next to impossible.

To give a more understandable picture, let's take a state say the size of Iowa, taking the old silver dollars and covering the state with them to a depth of 6 feet, then with one of them painted red, buried some were within this pile across the Iowa. Then have one blindfolded person, find the painted coin, on the first and only try!
You see science tells us that this ratio, this number is more than there are particles within the Universe!

Now many do not agree that Christ lived and died to pay for the sins of mankind, and we humans need faith to accept that, right?

    What we do not need faith for is to accept with belief that the Holy Bible MUST be, either directed, or inspired by a Divine Being, who also created all life forms!

   How can I say this is so?  Well to all who are of a scientific nature, please recall your lessons on entropy.
All things that move, shall over time lose momentum, and begin to wander from their original paths agree?
Well, if science is right, and the Universe is 14.5 billion years of age, when does this law of entropy kick in?

    As per Biblical reckoning Creation of earthly beings began between 6-7 thousand years ago, depending upon whose numbers one chooses. Still some one, some power, must keep all the orbits in their place and all moving at the selected speeds, or else the night sky would look like a billiard table, from time to time. Yet all of moves as if under the control of some giant unseen hand!

AS for life and how it began, science holds that chemical and compounds mixed together, over a great span of time, and either via lightning or radiation, life somehow got started!

  But that's a great big problem as chemicals and compounds, are able to carry, nor store, thus unable to pass one any type of information, and most know that the formation of information requires some kind of intellect, agree?   Now, forgive me, but which one of YOU have ever found any intelligent chemicals or compounds of late?  Or think you can put a pile of raw cotton, a needle and thread into a pile, and leave it for a few years, and then come by and find you now have a brand new shirt? Does not the manufacture of any item of clothing require a intelligence, to manufacture and assemble? Or can it make itself into your shirt?

   No doubt, there have many of these stories, over time, as this one been around since the 1950's so it is not new, but this may be "NEWS" to you!

TRUE DISCIPLINE...THE MAKING OF A DISCIPLE.

     DO YOU KNOW that Jesus Christ has made an appointment with each person? First via the Angel at the Tomb, and second....>

Matthew 28:16. "Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them."
1 Corinthians 15:6. "After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep."

   You see, in every generation, everyone receives His calling, to meet Him at the Mountain top, [of knowledge] of and about Him. His mane Jesus is shown everywhere, in all tongues, yet many have doubted...>
Matthew 28:17. "And when they saw him, they worshiped him: but some doubted."

Note: Doubted Greek word here is Distazo, meaning to duplicate-double minded, to waiver in one's opinion.,  as so many do today, right? They know not what to believe either men or God!

Matthew 22:14. "For many are called, but few are chosen."
Note: This verse is among the most miss-understood, and wrongly taught, of all. WHY? Far too few look up the actual word in the Greek, "Chosen"
Eklectos- 1588- the elect, those WHOM have chosen, to surrender into God's love and care. Plus the word called are God's saints, those chosen by HIM, man/men can not make one a saint!
   Now getting back to the doubters, their doubts rested in their unwillingness to accept Christ' s Authority, as so many so-called "Christians" of today! That's the why we have so many differing denominations and religions, that worship Fridays, Saturdays, the Biblical Sabbath and the first day of the week the "Venerable day of the Sun". All because so many doubt Christ's Authority!

     You see, this is the example for the lack of discipline! Ever take note how close the words disciple and discipline really are? You must have disciple before you can be a disciple agree?  But to become a disciple, one must be willing to fully surrender their will before God! "Thy will be done!"  If this is not yet your character, pray and ask the Father, to remake you into HIS image, which IS HIS CHARACTER, WHICH IS HIS GLORY!

Mark 7:7. "Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."
Note: Please take heart in the meaning of this verse, as it pertains to the many "Traditions" of men".
      "Worship.Strong' s# 4576 Sebomia- To revere, to adore, to be devout, religious worship. No I ask YOU dear Reader, can YOU adore, be devout to, one who you have but a fleeting knowledge of? So where but in God' s own Word, can we in truth learn of HIM? Remember getting you knowledge from a man is getting second knowledge right? So......
are YOU satisfied with another' s ideas about your Father, or do you want it from HIS ONLY source the Holy Bible, which can be understood by anyone who has earnestly prayed for understanding?

Matthew 28:17. "And when they saw him, they worshiped him: but some doubted."
   Please know also, that all there most certainly knew that that Jesus died on the cross, and now has be raised from the grave, YET many still doubted His AUTHORITY over them.   Consider:
1. Most Bible students know Christ "Made" Adam from the dust of the earth, subsequently also each one of us, agree?
2. HE created all that we see and have, of all life, all plants and all minerals, right?
3. He sustains us all by His power, agree?
4. Because of sin, humanity fell, under Satan's rule, and Heaven purchased us all from Satan by the life and blood of Christ Himself. right?
5. IF YOU made anything, who owns it but YOU?
SO....>
1 Corinthians 6:19-20. "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."

Lest we forget, read Luke chapter 1, and know that within this Christ has set up an appointment for each one of us, at least those who have chosen Christ, because they have learned of Him and and come to love Him, and thus became will to obey and surrender to His will!

Herewith, are three facts that must precede, our service to our fellow men:

1 SELF- ASSESSMENT: 2 Corinthians 3:5. "Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;"     remember..,..>Philippians 4:13  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."
But to self-assess, we need but to ask, "Is Christ pleased with all that I do/" If you can't say Yes, you best be on your knees in prayer seeking help and guidance.

2SELF- APPLICATION: 2 Timothy 2:15. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." [STUDY AS PER Isaiah 28:9-10]

3.SELF ACCOUNTABILITY. Romans 14:11-12. "For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.Matthew 10:24-25  The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?"

Remember none can be nor should think of self, as above the Master Jesus Christ!
As with all shown Scriptures, it's best to read a few verse above and below the given texts, for a fuller understanding!

THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS CHRIST.

    MANY PEOPLE, accept the fact that our Lord and Savior shall return, and may think it will be sooner than latter!
    
    If YOU, are one of the many who believes the above sentence, then YOU are also an ADVENTIST, waiting on His second advent!

    Revelation 22:20. "He which testify s these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus."

    You see, this has been since Adam and Eve, one the Central reasons, for our being, for humanity to be once again re-united face to face with our Heavenly Father, and His Son and the Holy Spirit, the Full Godhead.

    Most people believe that this earth and this life just can NOT keep on going with humanity getting more and more evil, and earth getting more and more polluted, and earth's soils more and more depleted of minerals that plants need, in order to provide the complete nourishment our bodies need! However, all the believers in Christ, know what the the Bible says, and they accept that we are near the time of the end.

    Then accepting that time is short, should not all of us prepare to meet our Savior, and get ourselves ready and be as those who try to hide form Christ, yet shall be consumed and lost? He, Jesus will even send to each of us who are willing to receive the Holy Spirit, and HE shall do the work within in us, to get us ready, if we but surrender in loving obedience!
  
    Isaiah 12:1-6. "And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comforted me. Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation. And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.  Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth. Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee."

    Please know dear readers, that this 12th chapter of Isa. is leads directly into Isa. 23-27th chapters, [Please read them] and know that God will work towards our salvation.  Plus please make note of the beginning words in Isa.12:1 "IN THAT DAY"  The day of the LORD,'s return, for without that day. . . our lives would have no reason nor purpose! Life would be as the Evolutionists say, live then die the end!

Exodus 15:1 "Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

2 The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

3 The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.

4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.

5 The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.

6 Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

7 And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.

8 And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11 Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.

13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.

14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.

15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.

16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.

17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.

18 The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.

19 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.

20 And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.

24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?

25 And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,

26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.

27 And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters."

Please compare the above Exodus 15 with the next...>

Isaiah 15:1 "The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence;

2 He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off.

3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly.

4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him.

5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction.

6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.

7 Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.

8 For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beerelim.

9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land."

Do not both these passages show that God does indeed deliver His own, those who claim Him in love as their Father in Heaven via HIS SON Christ Jesus?
Exodus 13:3  "And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten."
Joel 1:15. "Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come."
Joel 2:1. "Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;"
1 Thessalonians 5:2. "For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night."
2 Peter 3:10. "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Can you see, that there can be no doubts about the meaning of the Day of the LORD? Nor should any one doubt that the the sight of sin makes GOD angered.

Isaiah 53:5-6. "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all."

John 3:15-17. "That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved"

GOD has no anger for the repentant sinner, who sought forgiveness through His Savior Christ Jesus! BECAUSE,  Christ's righteousness then covers us in the Father' s eyes!

WHERE THERE IS TRUST, THERE IS NO FEAR, BUT WHERE THERE IS FEAR, THERE IS NO TRUST.

IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN OVER YOUR HEAD, TURN TO THE ONE THAT CAN WALK ON THE WATER! B 4 WE, THE FAITHFUL ASK,  HE WILL ANSWER!

No believer need not fear the future as GOD has it within HIS Hands!
Psalms 28:6-8. "Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed."
Psalms 118:13-14. "Thou hast thrust sore at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation."

    So by all means "Give thanks to the LORD"  Psalms 105:1  "O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people." Isaiah 12:4. And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted."

Proclaim that HE is exalted in your eyes and heart...> Hebrews 7:26-27. "For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself."

Revelation 15:2-4. "And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.  Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest."

Revelation 22:12-16. "And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whore-mongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star."
2 Peter 3:8. "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.  Psalms 90:4  For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night."

Note: GOD is eternal, from forever to forever! To hours day years do not mean as much as they do to mortal mankind!

What many find shocking is the high rate of self-murder, suicides, among our teens! The Progressive Liberals have no clue, but they pull their collective hair out by the roots, with worry!
    Yet they are the DIRECT cause and EFFECT for this!    Allow me to show you. . . .
It's been what? four generations that we have taught our school children, there is no GOD, that we are here by pure random and accidental change! We life, we love and are loved {If lucky} then we die the end!
How hopeless and hos so wrong!
Yet here a a teen, trying to cope, life and all it's problems and hurts, and they think, "Well, here I am 15 -22 years old, and I may have maybe 60  or more years of this hurtful pain to live with? Not knowing the reason for me, nor the why I am here, nor is there anything but a cold death waiting, why should I put up with all this hurt and pain, end it all now, and stop the hurt, as the end is still nothing!
You see it takes faith to believe in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, but it takes a heap more faith to believe that dead stuff produced life!

EVEN SO COME    LORD JESUS!  AMEN.
Thanks for your time.
