We want you to believe in eternal life,
By an immortal body your physical body will be surrounded, which will undo,.. the opportunity of yourself dying.
Jesus Christ died for us
As we all died because of Adam, we will all live because of Jesus.

thought i went to ats, instead i went to church.
anyone ever consider that the desert god of the jews is the evil one. heres how i came to that idea.
1. the best lie is the one based on truth
2. almost all pantheons have a god that wants to take over and be the only one worshipped.
3. lucifer was cast out for wanting to usurp jahovah
4. what if jahovah was cast out of another pantheon as being the usurper, then wandered the desert till he found a tribe that would accept him (story of moses- alone in the desert, moses encountered a god that promised to free the people of moses if the people would accept and worship this new god only)? to glorify himself, jahovah would tell the story of the fall, only replace the hero and villian.
5. jahovah is a jeolous and world conquering god. the very traits that got the usurper gods kicked out of the other pantheons.
6. all the world had multiple gods, then one showed up and said im the only one, all others are false. this sounds like a power play to me.
let me try that again. taken at a world level, all the world has mutiple gods. each of these pantheons has a god that wants to take over. the gods got tired of this and kicked him out. this god travelled the wastes till he found a people that would worship him as the only god. to glorify himself, he told the story of getting kicked out, but said he did the kicking (as he is the only god), and all the other gods were servants of the evil god (or angel). the other gods, used to sharing power and doing their on god thing, didnt realize that the secret to power in the pantheons was to gather human worshippers, so they let him gather his followers till it was too late, and he overpowered them. also remember that the followers of the other gods didnt prosylitize, so the idea of conversion was foreign to them. the followers of this new god shows up, and starts converting the kids (who always want the new) and before you know it, the kids adopt this new religion and abandon the old.
just an amusing idea. i have no idea if its true or not.
...You misunderstand the meaning of both 'death' and 'life' in this context.
Death is the loss of the consciousness Created 'by and in the image of God'; Life is the re-emergence of that consciousness when one receives both the Vision of the "Son of man" and the Revelation of the "resurrection"; which includes the Revelation of the Memory of Creation and the revelation of the memories of previous lives...

Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.”
-Matthew27.64
The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."-Matthew28.5

The Son of Man is coming, but it will be in a historical real-time context. All the useless labels, excessive adoration, and general awe of prophesy-in-the-making won't be a factor. First thing he will ask you to do is put the bibles down.
There are a number of requirements for a sacrifice to be valid or it is completely disqualified and will be an abomination to G-d. These requirements are as follows: 1. The sin offering must be brought forth by the person seeking atonement, and slaughtered either by the sinner or by the priest. 2. Death must be caused by a sharp, perfect blade cutting across the neck, resulting in blood loss and swift death. 3. The offering must be physically unblemished. 4. In the case of mammal offerings (bulls, lambs, etc.) the offering must be less than one year old. 5. In the case of mammal offerings, the mammal must have cloven hooves and chew cud. 6. The sacrifice must be brought at the Temple 7. The sacrifice must have its blood taken by a priest and sprinkled on the altar. 8. The sacrifice must be salted. Since Jesus did not fulfill even one of the eight precepts listed above, it's clear that his death could not be the atoning sacrifice Christians claim it is.

Interesting, but the math/logic in that theory is reaching way too far.
M = 14?
I thought M was the 13th letter of the English alphabet?
I think there are too many alphabets for any single alphabet to be used numerologically.
Unless you can find the very first alphabet ever devised by man, or merge all of the existing alphabets, I doubt numerology used in this way can be anything close to accurate.
Here's an interesting tidbit: the word "Man" is actually derived from the word "Moon," and is also related to the words "Mana" and "Mania".

By saying that the hidden language, for it to be "real" must be in all languages is to tell God what he should do, or has done. The millions of hidden messages in the English language stands on its own -- as millions of miracles. The fact that 911 was an "Act of GOD" is a chilling fact for the world to deal with. The date 911 2001 AD converts to the word “Religion” – as in “Islam” and “Christian”.

You do have a point about the hidden language. But I also wonder why it would convert to "Religion" only in the English alphabet, but not in any other alphabet? Or am I mistaken?
Could it be that the English alphabet is the "newest" alphabet and the most relevant to our times?
It would be interesting to see the results of this numerology when applied across the board; eg, the Arabic, Egyptian, and Latin alphabets. There really could be a hidden language for all we know.
