There is more to the Bible than meets the eye
THE SIGNATURE OF GOD - DESIGNS
The mind of the Lord is so much more powerful than what we can even conceive. There is more
evidence of the Hand of the Lord in the writing of the Bible. Dr. Ivan Panin, a Christian and
mathematician who died in 1942, discovered over three hundred “Heptadic Designs” in God’s
Word. A Heptadic Design is a design based upon the number seven.
In the Greek version, in the first eleven verses of the first book of the New Testament,
Matthew, there is a Heptadic Design. The first eleven verses are the genealogy of Jesus. If you
were to create a fictitious genealogy of forty-two generations, the probability of the number of
words in your fictitious genealogy being divisible by seven with no remainder is one chance in
seven. You probably would have to go back and adjust a little to make the number come out to a
multiple of seven. You might have to rewrite it to add or delete a word or two.
In the Greek, in the genealogy of Jesus, the number of words is a multiple of
seven. So is the number of generations (6 x 7 = 42). But that is not all!
In the Greek, the number of words, the number of generations, the number of
letters, the number of vowels, the number of consonants, the number of words beginning with a
vowel, the number of words beginning with a consonant, the number of words that occur more
than once, the number of words that occur in more than one form, the number of words that
occur in only one form, the number of nouns and the total vocabulary are all multiples of seven.
There are more that I have not listed. The probability of just the items I have listed occurring by
chance is one in 13.8 BILLION!
This design cannot be by chance or accident. It is by divine design. Remember,
Dr. Panin discovered over three hundred such designs. To the Creator of the universe, placing
Heptadic Designs in His Word is like we mere humans creating a crossword puzzle. As one
Brother says, “You need help NOT to believe the Bible is divinely inspired.”
The God of Creation, the God who inspired the writing of the Bible, changes not.
He is the same yesterday, today and forever. And He is still in control. Praise His Name.
I thank Brother Chuck Missler (http://www.khouse.org) for this fascinating
