Agreed, it should have said 2nd which would have been more appropriate anyways (15 x 2 = 30 the circumference of the "sea") Thank you, my mistake. What are your thoughts on 1 Kings 7:23 and 24 concerning the ratio 111/106 and Pi?
The ratio to what? The gospel ?

Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.” Then you will not be puffed up in being a follower of one of us over against the other.

Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:” (Romans 1:19,20)


This is for the naysayers who imply that this thread is unbiblical. How has God “shewed it unto them?” When we study numbers connected with the creation such as Pi and the human body we are learning about the creation and we should find the “invisible things of him!” In so many respects numbers are the invisible part of creation.


“I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness:….Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:” (Ecclesiastes 7:25,27)


The top few things on Solomons list are “to know, and to search, and seek out wisdom, and the reason of things” and his “methodology” is “counting one by one” and that is exactly the method used in this thread.


Considering this is the 666th (37 x 18) chapter of the Bible it harmonizes with Revelation 13:18 which states “Let him that hath understanding count.” There is something that is fundamentally important in the creation that Satan is going to use the last days to defile mankind.


“Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.” (Revelation 22:7) This includes 666 and its most significant prime 37.

The post was about 1 Kings 7:23-24, the ratio of the measurements of the "sea"
So then the spiritual meaning of 3.14 is how many gallons of water? How would that serve the gospel hid from the lost?

I am not chasing after numerology. Without parables Christ spoke not, not without numerology.

Words have meaning attached, not decimal equivalent attached.

Where is the prescription for using numerology? I can offer one used in parables .

2Co 4:18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

The above is pure conjecture with some fragmented out of context misapplied Scripture tossed in, in feeble attempt to lend the conclusions credibility.

This is in fact a severe mishandling of the Word of God, of which Paul warned us of in 2 Corinthians 2:17 and 4:1-3.

Why is his behavior and mishandling of the Word akin to Paul's warnings? Because it is not preaching the Gospel nor is it handling the Word of God appropriately in any of its contexts. God didn't not inspire book titles, chapter and verse divisions. The passages written are being twisted for an absurd purpose, as if they were intended to be written in order to support james37 numerology and bible program conclusions.

This is major Scripture twisting on his part, but he cannot see. May his elect take heed.

“I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness:….Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:” (Ecclesiastes 7:25,27)

Once a person gets on this numerology path, they "see" this "numerology" in everything as witnessed above. They are so hoodwinked they see all this as "illumination" and "light" and "logical conclusions."

Surely when James 1:2 says "...count it all joy..." it must mean the intent for which it was written was to show james37 he is on the right path and should put that verse in his bible program and come up with a formula. Or, james37 will say that is a wrong usage of the verse, as in only he and his bible program can determine if the word "count" is to be misused how he says it can be misused. :rolleyes:

Considering this is the 666th (37 x 18) chapter of the Bible it harmonizes with Revelation 13:18 which states “Let him that hath understanding count.” There is something that is fundamentally important in the creation that Satan is going to use the last days to defile mankind.
The above is pure conjecture and nothing but illogical conclusions. It is basically this which is the basis for all of james37 conclusions; "Since this is here, and this times this equals this, let's jump over to this verse, then it must mean this over here, and this over here. So in conclusion, since I've proven this to be true, thus so and so is true." It all starts with "Since" in his mind, he is already concluding things before he begins so he is mislead at the very beginning.

james37 makes pretense as if all that is Bible preaching. It is not. It is a disgraceful and shameful mishandling of God's Word.

“Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.” (Revelation 22:7) This includes 666 and its most significant prime 37.

There is not one thing relevant in any of your mishandlings of the Word of truth. Not one thing, it is all in your deceived mind. God help you out of this snare.

If I was preaching “another gospel” (2 Corinthians 11:4) you might have a case but I have said nothing that is contrary to “the glorious gospel of the blessed God” which was committed to Paul. (1 Timothy 1:11) These numbers do not change any meaning of any words in the Bible just as a seal on a document doesn’t change the meaning of the contents of the document. It only gives it “authority.” (37 times in the King James Bible)

I have read this before and am not necessarily disagreeing with what you are saying. I do believe that there is a bit more to it than just that and I hope we can learn some more together on this subject. Consider this property of 666.

1+2+3+4.....+34+35+36 = 666

thus 666 is the 36th (6 x 6) triangular number.

Notice that 36 falls one number short of 37. I think this is key to understanding 666. I also find it interesting that the number 37 is the key number in a 6x6 number square which displays some very interesting patterns.

Furthermore the Bible tells us to count the number.
6 is the number of man you think?

God made man on the 6th day.

And there are 3 sides to a triangle, the strongest shape.

So three sixes I interpret as the strongest man.

What is the word “milk” used in 1 Corinthians 3:2 and 9:7; Hebrews 5:12-13; and 1 Peter 2:2 referring to?

Babies do not go “fishing” (John 21:3) nor do they eat “meat” (John 21:5-13; 1 Corinthians 3:2; Hebrews 5:12,14).

“Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three..”

The 1st 3 digit string in Pi is 111 (37x3) and it is at the 153rd position from the decimal point.

“the Son” (case) is found 153 times in the King James Bible. Let’s count how many verses the phrases in Mark 1:1 occur in between that verse and the last verse of the Bible.

“The beginning” = 37
“the gospel” = 74 (37 x 2)
“Jesus Christ” = 185 (37 x 5)
the Son” (case) = 111 (37x3)
Son of God” (case) 37

Mark 1:11 “…thou art my beloved Son…”; “beloved” = 111 (37x3) times in the KJB.

There are 343 (7x7x7) digits between the decimal point and the 1st occurrence of 153 in Pi.
“in Christ” = 77 times in 76 verses of the KJB (77+76 = 153)
“church” = 77 times in 76 verses (77+73 = 153)
“the gospel” = 77 verses of the King James Bible. This number added to the number of verses of the phrases “in Christ” or “church” will yield 153.
All forms of the word “preach”* are found 153 times in the King James Bible.
Peter = 153 verses and Paul = 153 verses in the KJB.

“..Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:” (Mark 7:14)

“hearken” = 153 times in the KJB

Is the word “count” in James 1:2 (James 1 is the 37x31 chapter of the Bible) connected with a number as it is in Ecclesiastes 7 and Revelation 13?


“Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number…” or as the NIV puts it “calculate” the number. I did not misuse the word “count” but I am guilty of taking it literally.

I said the study of numbers in the Bible is "preaching?" This is nothing more than a straw man you pulled out of thin air. All I have done is taken Revelation 13 and Ecclesiastes 7 literal because they count as scripture too! (2 Timothy 3:16) :)

“And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.” (1 Samuel 17:3)


Notice there are 2 different groups of people standing (stand = 137 x 2 in KJB) on 2 different mountains (mountain = 137 times in the KJB)


Then what happens? Goliath the giant full of sixes pops up on the scene. A son of perdition who catches a stone with his head. This story is prophetic and we are all going to stand on one mountain or the other. The question be which "mountain" will you be standing on?

137 is my favorite number.

Consider the golden number PHI, 1.618.

1.618 is derived from the Fibonacci number sequence.

1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 and so on.

55 ÷ 34 = 1.618
34 ÷ 21 = 1.618
21 ÷ 13 = 1.618

Then consider the golden ratio.

61.8% + 38.2% = 100%

Or instead of making the ratio add up to 100, make it add up to 360.

137 ÷ 360 = 38.2% (the lesser number of the ratio)

I think this is significant in regards to light.

If there are 137 protons and 137 photons (light), the chance that an electron absorbs a photon (light) becomes 100%.

Also consider the cycles and brightness of the 2 great lights, the sun and the moon.

The moons completes 13 cycles in the time the sun completes 1 cycle.

The sun is 7 times brighter than the moon (according to the book of Enoch)

13 and 7.

Hey James37, you must be light bringing! lol

Oh speaking of light bringing... Using simple English Gematria...

Lucifer = 74

Jesus = 74

TWINS!

All this number crunching is mildly interesting, but when people start using it to come up with anti-biblical garbage, the line has been crossed.

Not twins. One is an imposter masquerading as light!

"And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of
light." (2 Corinthians 11:14)

There is a false "christ" coming to deceive the world and he will be connected with the number 37 since 666 = 37x18! (Revelation 13:18)

aka "another Jesus" 2 Corinthians 11:4

The statement "twins" yes heresy. The numbers not heresy. This is knowledge concerning the coming deception.
