Very interesting....\nIn the KJV Bible, Christ is mentioned 555 times. Jesus has 5 titles given in Isa 9:6 (Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, the everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace). He arrived on earth in the 5th millineum. The title "only begotten son" is found 5 times. The number 5 is the number of death and who died for our sins?? Does anyone else have any other interesting Bible numerics to share?

Scott, I do agree with you.  However, I do find things like this to be very interesting, and it is amazing to find how some things do relate to each other symbolically.  I'm not entirely sure of the accuracy of these, but I think that they are correct.  \n\n1=God, begining, source, unity, first.\n2=number of witness (in the mouth of two or more witnesses), friendship\n3=Godhead, trinity, divine completness, perfect testimony\n4=number of earth, creation, world, four gospels, four winds, four seasons, four corners of the earth.  \n5=grace, atonement(this is probably the meaning you were referencing), life, the cross, five-fold ministeries. \n6=number of man, beast, satan, idol.\n7=perfectio, completness, number of book of Revelation, finished, day of rest, (used 600 times in the Bible)\n8=resurrection, new beginings, put on new man.\n9=harvest, ministry, fullness, friutfullness, number of gifts of the Holy Spirit(maybe that are mentioned???), number of birthing(baby born in 9 months).\n10=number of law, order, government, restoration, antichrist kingdom, trial, testing, responsibiblity, tithe\n11=incompletness, disorganization, disintegration, disorder, lawlessness, need for apostolic fullness (11 apostles after Judas hanged himself).\n12=divine government, apostolic fullness.\n13=rebellion/backsliding, apostacy\n14=passover\n15=spiritual order\n16=free spirit, without bounderies, without limitation, without law therefore without sin ROMANS 4:15, salvation.\n17=spiritual void\n18=put on jugdment, destruction, captivity, overcome put on spririt of Christ (Judges 10:7-8, Luke 13:4, 3:11, 16)\n19=barren, repentant, ashamed, selflessness, without self rightousness (2 Samuel 2:30, Romans 6:21).\n20= can either mean holy, tried and approved or unholy and found wanting.\n24=priestly courses, govermental perfection\n30=consecration, maturity for ministry(I would guess this is because Jesus began His ministry at age 30)\n40=probation, testing, ending in victory or defeat.\n50=number of pentecost, liberty, freedom, jubilee.\n70=prior to increase of representive of a multitude.\n75=number of separation, cleansing, purification.\n100=fullness, full measure, full recompense, full reward, ect. (Genesis 26:12, Mark :10:30)\n120=end of all flesh, beginning of life in the Spirit.\n124=number of God's ultimate in creation and redemption.\n163=number of God's electm revival, ingathering, harvest.\n300=number of faithful remnant.\n666=antichrist, satan, beast.\n1000=maturity, full stature (Isaiah 17:33,5, Ephesians 4:13)\n\nThese are the numbers that I know of, I'm not sure of the valitidy of all of them, but I hope this helps!  These are fun to look at tho, even tho they aren't the whole purpose of the Bible, keep that in mind.  But is IS interesting to see how things weave together, and it is another proof that the Bible was inspired by God, not randomly written by a bunch of different men.  \n\n2 Timothy 3:16\n\n  All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training is righteousness.\n\n\nGod bless!!

In Isaiah 9:6-7, it says, Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given. And what is the name of this son? The "Mighty God" in the next verse.\n\n JESUS CHRIST IS:  "THE GOD ALMIGHTY"\n\n\nLook it up. What does it say. The Son is called what?\n\n T H E.  .  A L M I G H T Y.  . G O D.

Jesus is included in other historical documents than just the Bible.  I personally have read about Him in Josephus.  And yes, He is the Christ.  How many people do you know of that would die for a lie?  ALL of the disciples except one died for saying that Jesus is the Christ.

666 is associated as "The Number of the Beast". (from Revelation 13: 16-18)\n\n(UGGH, I don't like quoting "the good book").

Is the one your'e thinking of perhaps Romans 5:17-19?\n\n"17 For if by the trespass of the one [man] death ruled as king through that one, much more will those who receive the abundance of the undeserved kindness and of the free gift of righteousness rule as kings in life through the one [person], Jesus Christ.\n\n18 So, then, as through one trespass the result to men of all sorts was condemnation, likewise also through one act of justification the result to men of all sorts is a declaring of them righteous for life. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were constituted sinners, likewise also through the obedience of the one [person] many will be constituted righteous.

YOU ASK A ??? BEFORE YOU CHECK TO SEE IF WHAT YOU SAY IS TRUE.\n\nSOME OF THE 12 TRIBES MENTIONED IN Revelation ARE NOT THE ONES IN THE 12 TRIBES MENTIONED IN THE (old testament)  YOU DO NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE "FLESHLY 12 TRIBES" & THE "SPIRITUAL 12 TRIBES"\n\nYOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHAT THE KINGDOM IS THAT JESUS TALKED ABOUT, NOR WHAT IT IS GOING TO DO IN THE FUTURE.  I DOUBT VERY MUCH IF YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT A KINGDOM IS.\n\nAND YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT WHEN YOU SAY ONLY 144000 WILL BE SAVED.  THE BIBLE SHOWS THAT THERE WILL BE A GREAT CROWD WHICH NO MAN CAN NUMBER,  SO MILLIONS COULD  BE SAVED.\n\nBEFORE YOU ASK THE NEXT ??? DO SOME RESEARCH & MAKE SURE WHAT YOU SAY IS TRUE.

Its interesting in that it claims Judas was the one crucified, and that Jesus ascended into heaven.\n\nit also claims that jesus foretold of a final prophet for all men, "the blessed one" - the blessed one, when translated into arabic becomes "Muhammad".

i heard it a while back yeah, except "basic" instead of "brief".. some other stuff: the names of the first 10 patriarchs of the bible tell God's plan.. lookee here\nhttp://www.susancanthony.com/aboutSusan/bibleits.html\n\nanother interesting thing is when God was on the cross, they hung a sign that said "Jesus the Nazarean and King of the Jews" which in hebrew is: Yeshua HaNazarei WMelech HaYehudim, the first letter from each  is Y-H-W-H, the name of God...

First, I'm wondering how Jehovah's Witnesses resolve Revelation 14:4, which states that the 144,000 will be virgin (unmarried) males:\n\n"These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins."\n\nThis verse, taken with Revelation 7:4, tells us that the 144,000 will literally be:\n1. Jews\n2. Men\n3. Virgins (unmarried). \n\nA Jehovah's Witness once told me that these were "virgins" in the spiritual sense, since they did not defile themselves with the whore of Babylon. But John didn't say "woman" (singular) he said "women" (plural).\n\nSo if we shouldn't take what the book of Revelation says literally regarding the 144,000, why should the number itself be? It seems that the Watch Tower organization is applying a double standard here in its interpretation of the scriptures. \n\n------------------------\n\nSecondly, Wink Winkleman said: "The scriptures make it very clear that the Jews WERE, at one point, God's chosen people, but they were completely abandoned by God once they had his Son, Jesus, put to death."\n\nWink, I'm wondering how you resolve that statement (that the Jews have been completely abandoned by God) with what Paul wrote in Romans chapter 11. \n\nPaul, writing well after Jesus died and rose again, said this of the Jewish people:\n\nVerse 1:\n"I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not!"\n\nVerse 2:\n"God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew."\n\nVerses 25-27:\n"For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:\n>  "The Deliverer will come out of Zion,\n>  And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;\n>  For this is My covenant with them,\n>  When I take away their sins.""\n\nVerses 28-31:\n"Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy."\n\nIf Paul is correct in saying that God will one day restore salvation to the nation of Israel, then why can't we take Revelation literally and simply believe what it says? The 144,000 will be Jewish, male virgins.

Jesus is the one true God. Some people think that he was just a prophet from God, but he actually died for our sins. I mean the Jews rejected him, but what he went through at the cross, no one would have survived a part of what he went through. I am a struggling christian I admitt it, I am, because I am just not use to all the things that we r suppose to obey. But I am learning slowly. Hey but at least I am still learning more and more about God that I thought I understood before. The Bible is all the proof you need. I would sudgest to get a New King James Version to help you understand the words a little. I even have trouble understanding it. Hey I'm 15 I can have an escuse to have a little trouble. ~LOL~ Also look at Probvers, Acts, and Revlations. They will tell you of how he died for you, what is coming for us in the rapture, and how we should act as christians. I hope you take of what I said into concideration.

Actually nobody believes that “the number of the beast” is 666 any longer. \n-There was a discovery of a piece of parchment that is now the earliest record of Revelations (in Greek) that clearly reads 616. \n-This was a game commonly played at the time (we know this 'cause there are lots of ancient carvings that say things like "I love the woman whose name is 457" stuff like that) So you would assign the letters in a persons name different number values and then take a persons name and add up the numbers and you get a sum. In this case 616 likely refers to the Emperor who was promoting blasphemous idol worship of himself. And the writer of Revalations was trying to make the point about how evil this was and that the only one to be worshiped is "the one true God". And this using numbers was a way of talking about someone without using their actual name and so only those in the know would understand and you could get away with calling the emperor a jerk and not get put in jail or hung or worse…

Why do many Bible translations not use the personal name of God or use it only a few times?\n\nThe preface of the Revised Standard Version explains: “For two reasons the Committee has returned to the more familiar usage of the King James Version: (1) the word ‘Jehovah’ does not accurately represent any form of the Name ever used in Hebrew; and (2) the use of any proper name for the one and only God, as though there were other gods from whom he had to be distinguished, was discontinued in Judaism before the Christian era and is entirely inappropriate for the universal faith of the Christian Church.” (Thus their own view of what is appropriate has been relied on as the basis for removing from the Holy Bible the personal name of its Divine Author, whose name appears in the original Hebrew more often than any other name or any title. They admittedly follow the example of the adherents of Judaism, of whom Jesus said: “You have made the word of God invalid because of your tradition.”—Matt. 15:6.)\n\nTranslators who have felt obligated to include the personal name of God at least once or perhaps a few times in the main text, though not doing so every time it appears in Hebrew, have evidently followed the example of William Tyndale, who included the divine name in his translation of the Pentateuch published in 1530, thus breaking with the practice of leaving the name out altogether.\n\nWas the name Jehovah used by the inspired writers of the Christian Greek Scriptures?\n\nJerome, in the fourth century, wrote: “Matthew, who is also Levi, and who from a publican came to be an apostle, first of all composed a Gospel of Christ in Judaea in the Hebrew language and characters for the benefit of those of the circumcision who had believed.” (De viris inlustribus, chap. III) This Gospel includes 11 direct quotations of portions of the Hebrew Scriptures where the Tetragrammaton is found. There is no reason to believe that Matthew did not quote the passages as they were written in the Hebrew text from which he quoted.\n\nOther inspired writers who contributed to the contents of the Christian Greek Scriptures quoted hundreds of passages from the Septuagint, a translation of the Hebrew Scriptures into Greek. Many of these passages included the Hebrew Tetragrammaton right in the Greek text of early copies of the Septuagint. In harmony with Jesus’ own attitude regarding his Father’s name, Jesus’ disciples would have retained that name in those quotations.—Compare John 17:6, 26.\n\nIn Journal of Biblical Literature, George Howard of the University of Georgia wrote: “We know for a fact that Greek-speaking Jews continued to write ???? within their Greek Scriptures. Moreover, it is most unlikely that early conservative Greek-speaking Jewish Christians varied from this practice. Although in secondary references to God they probably used the words [God] and [Lord], it would have been extremely unusual for them to have dismissed the Tetragram from the biblical text itself. . . . Since the Tetragram was still written in the copies of the Greek Bible which made up the Scriptures of the early church, it is reasonable to believe that the N[ew] T[estament] writers, when quoting from Scripture, preserved the Tetragram within the biblical text. . . . But when it was removed from the Greek O[ld] T[estament], it was also removed from the quotations of the O[ld] T[estament] in the N[ew] T[estament]. Thus somewhere around the beginning of the second century the use of surrogates [substitutes] must have crowded out the Tetragram in both Testaments.”—Vol. 96, No. 1, March 1977, pp. 76, 77.\n\nWhich form of the divine name is correct—Jehovah or Yahweh?\n\nNo human today can be certain how it was originally pronounced in Hebrew. Why not? Biblical Hebrew was originally written with only consonants, no vowels. When the language was in everyday use, readers easily provided the proper vowels. In time, however, the Jews came to have the super

I've never heard of the The Jesus bible before, where did you hear about it?

Maybe because that's what that person needed to hear at that moment.  \n\nBut when you cross reference that story with the other Gospels you see the other commandments are summed up as well.  \n\nJesus is basically telling the young religious man,that there's more to just keeping the law, the commandments (all 500+ of them).  You have to be able to be completely dependent upon on God, live to do His work, and not hold on to anything of this world more than you love God.\n\nIts a good lesson for all of us. \n\nBe blessed!  :o)

I guess nobody knows the meaning of the Three sixes.\n\nRevelation 13:18 : \n\n"This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666."\n\nThe Bible says that the number 6 is an "IMPERFECT" number and number 7 is a perfect number(God is perfect). That's why God's number is 777, because it represents the FATHER, SON and HOLY SPIRIT (FATHER: GOD, SON: JESUS CHRIST, HOLY SPIRIT: THE SPIRIT OF GOD).\n\nBut going back to the sixes they mean:\nThe first 6 represents Satan.\n\nThe second 6 represents The Anti-Christ.\n\nThe third 6 represents The False Prophet. the False Prophet is going to come like the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, but its will is to do miracles but deceiving the people.
