You' re free to leave.
Don' t assume that you know our views. You can make guesses, but try not to act on or base much on them. The more you assume about us, the more likely it is that some of your assumptions will be wrong. The most of us are open to a wide variety of religious and spiritual ideas. What right do you think you have to tell others to get out?

All I have to say to the christian people is Keep trying. Our job aint over. Hopfully soon some of these people will realize that they make " NO F*CKING SENSE" of anything in life. If you people cant stand united with fellow christian's, and other beliefes. then get the **** out.
I agree with Storm. These forum were not created to serve your narrow sense of "truth." If you hate it so much here, please leave. Unproductive and unhappy members are not good for the forum.

Not true. The author of the Bible Codes, Michael Drosnin was a complete idiot who found a few curious thing that could be reproduced. Drosnin, however, did not do an in depth search nor did he back it up with enough ELS intervals and nor did he show enough statistical proof. However, the Moby Dick codes are not nearly as profound or vast as the true Bible Codes. Michael Drosnin used the Masocretic text which lacks many of the codes because of minor errors and a few missing letters. Furthermore, Drosnin tried to use the Bible Codes to divine the future which forbidden in the Bible, and therefore should be invalidated However, the Dead Sea Scrolls reveal the true Bible Codes which Moby Dick is no match for. Real Bible Code researchers have found many things beyond the scope of Moby Dick or War and Peace.A great example would be within the limitation of Isaiah 52-53 which contain the messianic prophecies of the 'suffering servant'. Ironically in a passage that specifically refers to Christ is encoded the names of all twelve disciples with the words 'The Disciples' (interestingly Judas Iscariot is not encoded there, but Matthias is), the three Marys, Joseph, Jesse, Obed, the priests who had him condemned (Annas and Caiaphas), Passover (when Christ was crucified), 'Let Him Be Crucified' is also found, 'cross', 'pierced', 'the Atonement Lamb' (Jesus as the fulfillment of the Passover), 'bread', and 'wine' (the Last Supper), and still other related words that could see as coincidence. But the what I have written shows an unbelievable amount of reference to Jesus within a very small amount of space which is ironically the most major messianic prophecy in the OT. Even Jewish rabbis have confirmed the validity of the Yeshua Codes I mentioned. Moby Dick has nothing close to that. Also, every messianic prophecy has the name of Jesus encoded within it several times.
You are forgetting the most important fallacy about the Bible Codes... It isn't hard to find something you are specifically looking for, especially if it has already happened. I am certain you could mix and match and find the word combination 'Jesus died for our sins' or 'George W. Bush wins in 2004' in just about any thick book.

And I wnat to know now, not AFTER it happens.
That's the magical catch, the Bible Code people can't foretell the future with the Bible since it hasn't happened yet. They can only find things that happened already by mixing and matching words and letters then claim "Ah ha, the Bible predicted it thousands of years ago and it has come to pass!"
Like I said, go get Moby Dick or any other word heavy book and you can 'predict' the future all day long, make a messiah out of Herman Melville or any other author you like. I am certain you could find the phrase 'Rapture going down July 14th 2009' if you looked hard enough.

Because everybody shows you up as wrong? Yes, I can see how that makes you sad.

You don't know if you agree with what he is saying? The rest of that section makes you sound like an JIA clone, only an offensive war-mongering one.

Keep on trying? What job do the Christians have? As far as I know Christians are not: a. the world police, b. the global authority on morality, c. the one true religion, d. somehow exceptional when compared to other religions e. responsible for anybody but themselves.

And the Bible Codes should not be used to determine the future because the Bible forbids it. Also, it is extremely hard to predict certain events before they happen.
The people here that have read 'The Bible Codes' by Michael Drosnin should disregard it as he does not use scientific method nor enough in depth research. Try 'The Signature of God' or my reference book 'The Mysterious Bible Codes' both by Grant R. Jeffrey. It is reliable and peer reviewed work that stands up to scrutiny.

Someone needs to tell them that. Because their religion contradicts you.
Isn't it regarded as fact by most theologians that "the rapture" was simply something amped up by the Catholic Church, based on certain statements in the Old Testament? [I can't remember the book from which these statements came....] 😕
And, to answer the thread, I'm not convinced. Christians have been predicting the end of the world since the time of Christ himself. And guess what: It's never happened! 😱
But seriously, I just don't believe in a rapture....and, to be honest, I don't know many people who wouldn't be left on Earth to face the end during a rapture....
