Rating: Summary: Blessed By Del Washburn's Astounding Work! Review: *The Original Code In The Bible* by Del Washburn, has been an enormous blessing in my life. This is no ordinary book; the truths Mr. Washburn uncovers in his book will touch your heart like no other book on the subject. Your faith will be enhanced beyond measure. You will come away knowing, beyond a doubt, that God is truly the author of the Bible. To sum it up in a single word; Brilliant!
Rating: Summary: The ultimate form of Gematria Review: 153 fishes, 12 tribes, 12 disciples, 666(616), 144,000(s), 70th week, 1260 days, 7 seals, 7 churches, 7 golden lampstands, etc, etc.... Numbers, hundreds of numbers, everywhere throughout the old and new testaments of the Bible. What on Earth(or heaven) are all of these "surface" numbers doing in the Bible anyway? Who put them there and why?Del Washburn's discovery of Theomatics is perhaps the greatest discovery of all time. The Original Code in the Bible, is an abbreviated version of his Theomatics 2, and provides compelling(and provable) information that answers these very questions. This discovery utilizes a unique form of gematria in order to decode the time honored ancient numerical languages of the Bible. Letters, words, and phrases all have numerical meanings that transcend the words. You will learn about such concepts as "clustering" and how it is statistically incredible. I'd compare this phenomenon to parity(odd/even) in electronics - in which the transmitted message is sent along with error correction. I used to view the Bible like a Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes. I had to go through the entire "disorder" to get to the one thing that I was looking for - and I had no idea what all of that other "stuff" was even there for. If you are in the same boat, then I encourage you to explore this discovery for yourself. Read it once, read it twice. Read it again and again. Thoroughly digest the material. Run the numbers for yourself. Prove it to yourself. Prove it to others. Know what messages are being tramsmitted via the text of the Bible. See how things really relate to each other. Don't just formulate opinions about the Bible, formulate mathematical conclusions. This subject material is so vast, and so intricately woven, that even after scores of years researching the phenomenon, it is still in it's infancy. The theomatics.com website offers surfers a nice preview of the material. I look forward to Del's forthcoming book "The Luciferian Rebellion". It is an awesome subject...what more can I say...
Rating: Summary: ??? Review: A few problems I see: 1. It needs to be proven that different people would pick the same word groupings and phrase/clause limits that Washburn has done (e.g., on his Web page with examples, he explains which relevant or distinct words he limits his target phrases to, even admitting to omitting words as not essential to the thought). Otherwise, Washburn could be adding or subtracting preceding or following words to achieve the numbers he seeks. 2. The Greek New Testament text is replete with textual variants. No modern Greek New Testament text, or even any book within the text, is based on the reading of a single manuscript. Rather, the text is a patchwork of readings from the thousands of extant manuscripts, and is created by textual critics who have been trained how to determine what is probably the best reading when manuscripts differ. Get a copy of the Nestle-Aland 27th edition (the latest critical text of the Greek New Testament) and you'll see how frequently the manuscripts vary. Sure, it's often only a word or two, or a letter or two, but since Washburn's thesis is dependent upon calculating the values of the letters that are in the text, a change in even single letters will often alter his results. I know he explains in his first THEOMATICS book how he dealt with this, but it doesn't solve the problem. NO ONE can precisely say what the original manuscripts said on a word-by-word basis. 3. It needs to be proven that other pieces of literature do not show this same apparent numerical consistency between related topics. E.g., if one could show that phrases having to do with velociraptors in JURASSIC PARK exhibit a common mathematical relationship (e.g., by assigning numerical values to the letters of the English alphabet to make it correspond to how the Hebrew and Greek alphabets use letters for numbers), that would likely nullify Washburn's hypothesis. NOWHERE in his books, to my knowledge, does Washburn provide answers to the above -- i.e., show that these objections to or questions about his theory can conclusively be demonstrated to be invalid, and that his theory stands the test of examination and comparison.
Rating: Summary: Is there irrefutable proof? ABSOLUTELY! Review: Mr. Washburn (the author of the book)has two mathemtical proofs that Theomatics is scientifically correct. He uses the scientific method in his book Theomatics 2 to prove that Theomatics is not a hoax. In fact he has made a scientific document called Theomatics and the Scientific Method that proves through the scientific method,as in Theomatics 2, that Theomatics is not a hoax, BUT, this time THE PROOF IS FAR MORE DETAILED AND EXTENSIVE. The latter is sold only (as far as I know) through his website. The proof is irrefutable! The critics that are bent on bringing Theomatics down are either emotionally upset because they have to restructure their ideological system because they have only relied on the surface text of the Bible, stupid or deceptive. The Fundamentalists fall under the first two categories while educated people fall under the last category. Their minds have been conditioned in the universities to denounce Christianity. Scientists and university professors have a deep rooted hatred for Christianity. Some of them are justified because the bible codes are recent discoveries, they are only familiar with faith Christianity, this form of Christianity leaves no room for logic. While other educated people hate Christianity because the Bible clashes with their emotions, while yet other educated people will not profess Christianity because they are afraid of being exiled from the realm of scholarship. These are the reasons why Theomatics is not received in the world of scholardom. Also, just for your information read up on a person named George M. Lamsa (you can buy his books on amazon.com). I think, and many others that have come across his work do also, that he has resurrected very much of first century Christianity. Happy trails to you.
Rating: Summary: The God of Creation is a God of Numbers Review: The God that sent His Son the Lord Jesus Christ to die for the sins of His people on a cross of shame is indeed the God of the Bible, and the Author of it. This book is "must reading" for all those who want to know the God of creation better! I still do not know how theomatics works in the Scriptures, but this book is very clear, it is there, and it will not "go away"...!

Rating: Summary: 5 stars are not enough for this book Review: This book presents one of the most amazing discoveries of our lifetime in an easy to understand fashion. Del Washburn's "The Original Code in the Bible" shows us the amazing mathematical patterns that are embedded in the Bible since time began, while proving scientifically that Bible could only have come from a divine origin. This book has been a tremendous faith builder for me, and after to the Bible itself, this book and his work Theomatics II should be on the very top of your reading list. For his findings have eternal ramifications..... The price is a steal and I would have paid $300 for the book, its that amazing. You don't wana pass this one up! God bless Del Washburn and anyone who reads this book.
Rating: Summary: An Interface to God's Wisdom Review: Though this book describes the wisdom of God through numbers which is calld mathematics, the key point is still the same, that's the RELATIONSHIP with God. If you read this book and your relationship with God is not becoming more intimate, then you might miss the most important point, and the goal of this book has not been accomplished yet. When you read this book, you will know God more through His wisdom. Knowing Him more will make us love Him more, right. So don't miss this point. Interface has the closest meaning to F2F (Face to Face). So have an F2F meeting with the Lord through this book. Isn't this the most important point rather then just gathering knowledge?
Rating: Summary: God's fingerprint indeed. Review: Washburn reveals hidden meanings in the Bible, heretofore unknown. What is more spectacular, he presents an argument based on the principles of mathematical logic to prove his findings! In all my experience I have never read a "theory" of Bible knowlege described and proved in this manner. It is a book for people wishing to have an overall understanding of Theomatics, "God's Mathematics," with numerous references to his earlier work "Theomatics II". The logical proof he makes in chapters 11 and 12 can be difficult to understand, but readily acceptable to those with a mathematical or scientific bent. This book has inspired me to investigate this phenomenon more thoroughly. Incidently, this is NOT a book about the famous "Bible Codes" that supposedly predict the future. This is a more scholarly work intending to reveal relationships between words and phrases in the Bible to illuminate one's understanding of the Scripture. You will also find more information at the Theomatics website.
