Subject: Questions I'm trying to answer |
Bible Note: OK Mark, I still haven't had time to search the archives on this yet. I think you have been mislead, how, I do not know. I think what's important is that as Christians, we are to accept no teaching that doesn't line up with the teachings of scripture. I don't find the scriptures teaching, or even hinting that there are "codes" in the bible. As for the apologetic benefit of such a notion, I don't see the need for that either. It is God Himself who establishes His word as true. It is the word of God itself that establishes istelf as authentic. Did God look down the corridor of time and anticipate that He would need to hide codes within His word that would some day be discovered by man that His word would be authenticated? I don't believe so. I believe He, in his mercy and grace, provided faith for that. Let me say, I respect and appreciate you and your opinion, even when we disagree. Jeff |
