i have real problems with this bible code thing, the bible was written over thousands of years by differant people in differant languages, then put together in a crude order. the names change from yahweh to elohim to jehova, i doubt its even the same god they are refering to due to the change in his behaviour from one book to the next. if u ask me the bible code is a load of crap and should be treated as such.....

Whenever we're talking about making words fit a pattern (like a code or rhythm), it seems to take a changed or forced form. For example, if you wanted to make poetry rhyme, you have to use certain words thereby changing what you were going to originally say or mean. By doing this, you create a more difficult message that takes a few read-throughs to get right. Now why would God, one to be of understanding and light, throw in secrets, codes, and unclear representations in order to make it fit the numbers? Sorry but this isn't making sense to me. Numerology looks more like supersititon to me than fact. If someone would like to clarify, feel free.

If you knew that the Torah was copied word for word, space for space, exactly as set forth would it make any difference? The instructions for copying the Torah are very specific. Minor mistakes cause complete destruction. A fact that always interested me. No I understand why. The code is real, no mistake.

If you want to believe the messages that come through in the code, for the sake of proving God's existence, then you must believe all of them:
Satan is Eloah/God, Satan is YHWH, Jehovah is a liar, Jehovah is dead, there is no Jehovah, Yeshua is not God, there is no truth, there is no evil, there is no goodness, there is no redemption, there is no Messiah, etc.

"The actual truth about the Bible codes was finally revealed by statistical analysis: they do not just exist in the Pentateuch; they are found everywhere. ELS codes are found with approximately equal frequency in the Book of Genesis, the Qur'an, Tolstoy's "War and Peace," or in any sufficiently long text written in any language -- probably even in this web site which totals over 30 megabytes of text. "
So, unfortunately, the only thing proving the existence of god to anyone is your own personal faith. Sorry guys.
