I used the NIV '84 Bible (British English) because of three incidents, which also suggested a gradual manifestation.

1. The two verses in The Key are from the NIV Bible. They were given to me first.

2. On the day I finished a very crude first attempt at a paper on 9/11 and the number 11, which ...

It's impossible to do gematria and not break at least one of those rules, but the trick is to break as few as possible and in as intelligent a way as possible. Our saving grace here is patterns of meaningfully-related numbers , which are statistically improbable, mutually support each other and ...

Hey Bill,

It's great that you are telling your story. That adds important context and really helps me understand where you are coming from.

Thank you for that. This is only a tiny part of it, of course, and telling only part of it it brings the danger of skewing people's understanding. It ...

We know that Enoch is identified as the 7th from Adam. With this in mind, observe that the very name of Enoch is itself a 3-D Triangle (i.e. the sum of the first 7 Triangles):

"Enoch" (SH) = 84

"Enoch" (SH) = ( 3 × 7 ) + ( 3 × 7 ) + ( 7 × 3 ) + ( 7 × 3 )

Enoch = The 7th from Adam

Essentially we cannot do gematria at all without 'cherry picking'. Yes we can still find mathematical structures concealed within scripture. But there is a higher tier of alphanumerical encoding that necessitates finding words and phrases that can be fitted onto word strings. This is 'dirtier' than ...

It's been hard on my old eyes too! In fact it's been hard on every part of me. I'm like an old horse ready for the knacker's yard now (I'm only 66, but feel older). But I'll bear your words in mind. Thanks for letting me know.

I'm 66 too. My body is slowing down, but my spirit feels fresh like ...

Thank you for that detailed explanation. Seeing the numbers that you actually used really helps. It was hard on my old eyes to try to count those dots. It would be good if you added a note to the images so people like me can understand what you really did and verify the numbers.

It's been hard ...

Thanks for that opening post. You have succinctly stated the fundamental problem of the practice of gematria, one I have wrestled with myself for 25 years. It has no solution, like squaring the circle, but has nonetheless to be attempted, because there is no other option for me. Avoiding the ...

This brings up what I believe are two fundamental weakness in your method that I hope we can discuss as brothers in Christ.

1) Cherry Picking: This is the fundamental weakness of gematria. There will always be interesting "hits" in any random assignment of numbers to letters. How do we discern ...

It's impossible to create an actual (accurate & consistent) discrete Sierpenski triangle from T(73). You have to overlap some dots while not overlapping others in an inconsistent way. Basically, you are trying to force a pattern on a grid that does not accommodate it. This procedure only works ...
