From my Dec 03 post:
"What fascinates me about the way I seek answers?  I like to find
pieces of the puzzle that fit."

Jesus took the time to compare Soloman with a lilly.
There is, IMO, a profound analogy between them.

Six senses connect you with reality.  They balance in the middle.
Six stamen of a lilly surround the ovary (center).  They each pivot
or balance on a center point.

Mat 20:2  And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

I have six senses, since I was sent to make scents for six cents.
(A penny a day for six days.)

You continue to make things up to fit your babble.  There is no purposeful or designed association...It's just wishful thinking on your part.

You babble on as though you believe you have found some fantastic hidden meaning, but when pointed out that what should "=" doesn't, you avoid the question and drool forth more babble.

Steve, it's rather strange that you can state that since the word 'God' doesn't equal 'one',everything I say is "babble".  How much weight does that claim to reason carry?
What part of my math is 'babble'?

No, it's what you choose to make equal.  You add or subtract words to make phrases equal and then trumpet the results as though the pattern is amazing of magical.

If it were truly magical, amazing or designed then, God would equal King, God would equal One and so forth.  

What you are doing is making the arguments fit the sum.

2Ki 5:10 And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.

Jos 6:14  And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
Jos 6:15 ¶ And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
Jos 6:16  And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.

Not until completing 2520 degrees, seven circles, were the people told by Joshua to shout.

Rev 11:3  And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall
prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

The word 'GOD' says, "Seven circles (360's) folded."

The Design of Life: Discovering Signs of Intelligence In Biological Systems

A reviewer:
"the source of that functional information is a designing intelligence."

********************************************************
ME:

Finding out 'what' about life, is not going to tell anyone anything about 'who, where, how, when, or why.'
Will science be satisfied with only 'what'.
By taking a model T apart, one will find that everything fits for a reason, but you'll not find out much about the designer.  Certainly not, what he looks like, how old he is, where his home is, how many
kids he has, or what he does in his spare time.  Maybe, you'll come to a decision that, who ever he is,
he has made his machine for some purpose other than to be used as a tie clasp or paper weight.
But an automobile is not IC.  It is designed for a purpose and it takes two other parts to accomplish that.
One is a tank of gas and the other is a driver.  Neither has to look like Mr. Ford.  

Life is about family and home, in that order.  Check out the 342 stories at  http://www.hereoisreal.com

Who......Infinite Designer (God)
What.....Infinite Design  (Life)
Where...In the middle between infinity big & infinity small. (here)
How..... And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.  Gen 1:2

Why....For a resting place.  Gen 2:2  And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

God's priority:
Day 1 he made heaven.  Gen 1:8
Day 2 he made earth.  Gen 1:9


Isa 66:1 Thus saith the LORD, The heaven [is] my throne, and the earth [is] my footstool: where [is] the house that ye build unto me? and where [is] the place of my rest?

1Ch 28:2 Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: [As for me], I [had] in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2Ch 9:18 And [there were] six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, [which were] fastened to the throne, and stays on each side of the sitting place, and two lions standing by the stays:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Psa 99:5 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; [for] he [is] holy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Psa 132:7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lam 2:1 How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, [and] cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mat 5:35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

God’s foot stool

Psa 110:1 [[A Psalm of David.]] The LORD said unto my Lord,
Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

I posted the above on some discussion boards during
the day. That night my wife and I went to see the play, Gypsy.
During the middle, a landlord, Mr. Goldstone, was being patronized. One
of the actors got down on his all-fours and Rose placed Mr.
Goldstone's feet on the actor's back. (A gold stone is what the lid to the Ark is
made from...one hunk of gold)

Beginning and end can both be looped to have
the same values of nothing but 9 & 14.

B  E  G      I   N   N   I   N  G  /   B  E
2   5  7     9  14  14  9  14  7      2  5
(   14   )                          (    14       )


 E    N   D /   E    N   D
 5   14   4     5    14  4
           (   9   )

9 + 14 = I AM

Jesus (GD,74) said:

Rev 22:13  I am Alpha and Omega,      (9 + 1 + 13 = I AM) (9 x 14 = 126, AZ)
               the beginning and the end,   (G&D, 7&4), (plus 'nothing in me' = GOD)
               the first and the last.            ( 9, the first letter in the bible, & 14, the last )

Here, O is real:
The beginning and end + O = God
The first and last + O = God
The alpha and omega + O = God

For clarity, since I've added a couple of incidents, I'm re-posting "This story has a ring to it":

In January, 2004, I was on my patio when I noticed my neighbor out in his backyard with a metal detector. He must have spent 3-4 hours scanning his grass.
I asked him the next day, as I leaned over our fence, what had he lost. He said that he was losing weight and had lost his gold wedding ring but didn't have any idea where or when. I then glanced to my left about 8-10 feet and spotted his ring in the grass.

Night before last, Joan's sister and husband were over and I told them the above story. The next day after
we had done some shopping , we were having lunch at home when Shirley, my sis-in-law discovered one
of her gold ear rings was missing. We searched the house for about an hour, then backtracked. While Bob
and I went to one store, my wife and Shirley went to another.
They pulled into the yard about 5 minutes after Bob and I with the ear ring.
Joan said that the one parking spot I had used that morning was empty so she parked there. They searched
through the whole store and around the parking space before finally getting back in the car. Then Joan told
Shirley to get out one more time and look around the parking spot, which she did and got back in. As Joan
was backing out, she spotted the ear ring in the sand.

In February of 06, I was playing golf and riding with Dick Ledger in his cart when he mentioned that he was having trouble keeping his wedding ring on because he was losing weight.
The remark brought back memories of the above story from the year before so I told it to him.

When I arrived home that afternoon, my wife told me that she had spoken to Janet White on the phone and learned that Bill, her husband, had lost his ring finger while trying to lift something heavy from his son’s truck.
A few days later, Bob and Shirley came to visit again and I told them all of the above. Just before they were about to leave, Bob discovered he had lost his wedding band. (He had been losing weight.)
After they left, my wife continued to look for the ring and asked me to help. I didn’t and said to her, " He’ll probably find it in his trunk"
Our maid, Suzan came that day so my wife asked her to keep an eye out for it also. I told her the complete story up till then. And then, I told her a ring joke.
I said, " Do you know why my fanger smells like limon pie? It’s got my rang on it."
That night Shirley called. She said Bob had found his ring in the car trunk.
The next time Suzan came, I told her that Bob had found his ring.
She said, " After you told me the ring joke, I went home and found my mother in the kitchen. I asked her what she was baking and she replied, “Limon meringue pie”."

Did you ever find something that was lost, before you missed it?
I pulled my hand from under my pillow to find my wife's
ring hooked to my ring.  She had come to wake me a few
minutes before.

Isa 65:24  And it shall come to pass, that before they call,
I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

The two bible verses below say the same thing.
I see the trinity of God, the first family, in each.

Zec 9:9  Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout,
O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh
unto thee: he [is] just, and having salvation; lowly,
and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

Rev 12:5  And she brought forth a man child, who
was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child
was caught up unto God, and [to] his throne.

Don't worry Richard.  There are pattern makers and pattern recognizers.

It didn’t happen and I was disappointed.

house, Brent Jobe was in his backswing on TV.

Last night while watching Wheel of Fortune, I asked my wife if the toaster oven was still on.

How do you cope with all the excitement?

Sometimes it's hard when you're watching the grass grow.

I'm late!  I'm late!

While driving through a residential area that had a 30 mph speed limit, I
wished the truck in front of me would go just a little faster since I was
running late.  As I pulled up closer to it at a red light, I glanced at the
license tag.  It read 'SPD KILS'.

If you want to talk about coincidences, how about this:

A while ago I had moved to a new place in order to be in close proximity to my girlfriend of the time.  At the time I was still harboring the fantasy that I may one day become a pilot (yes, that's my ultimate fantasy, I dig all this sciency stuff as a hobby, but if I had my choice I'd be residing in a cockpit (no jokes on that term, they're too easy) working a joystick (again, really, of COURSE I know what that sounds like, but that doesn't mean anyone else needs to comment on it).

Anyway, I had moved into a new apartment complex, and immediately began receiving a "Student Pilot" publication, apparently belonging to the previous occupant.  Soon after that, I discovered that a car parked near my car in the apartment complex parking lot had a flight instructor themed bumper sticker.


Surely all those coincidences were a not so subtle message from God.  Right?

Nah.  I've been over this time and time again.  The life of a commercial pilot today is crap.  And it's only going to get worse as fuel becomes more expensive and the airline industry continues to grind itself into the dirt in a perverse caricature of the concept of capitalistic competition.

As far as the seeming coincidence, I was living near a smallish airport that had a large flight school.  It's no great surprise that students of the flight school, as well as flight instructors, would seek out lodging in area apartments.

Meaningless coincidences DO exist.  Random chance provides the mechanism by which they happen, our inherent need to provide meaning to everything provides the context that makes them appear to have intrinsic meaning.

Nomad, by chance, I'm a pilot too.

I'm a little disappointed you didn't use a picture of a pilot of a Japanese Zero.

You're an odd one, Zero.  In a way I want to study your ways.  Not that I think there's any meaning at all in your numerology, I skip over a lot of the stuff you post, it has no relevance to the real world as I've experienced it in the 31 years of my life so far.

But the way you can take criticism or dissenting thought and let it roll off your back like water off a duck's butt and then turn around and come back with a charmingly irreverent response is a sight to behold.  I need to learn how to do that.  I'm the opposite, I can't let conflict go and have an almost irresistible urge to fight to resolve the disagreement.

I suspect I could add years to my life in stress reduction alone if I could do what you do in situations where it's impossible to resolve the conflict through discussion.

Noman, you  give 'random chance' some credits.  From where does our 'inherent need' come?

Chance has no goal.
Chance has no direction.
Chance has no plan.
Chance has no skill.
Chance has no action, only reaction.
Chance has no purpose.
Chance has no pattern.
Chance has no desires.
Chance has no hopes.
Chance has no dreams.
Chance has no values.
Chance has no love.
Chance has no preferences.
Chance has no choice.
Chance has no discernment.
Chance has no kingdom.
Chance has no power.
Chance has no glory.
Chance can't think once, much less twice.

Does God have a goal, direction, time frame, purpose, or are things left to chance?

Dan 9:24  Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish
the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to
bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

In seventy weeks:
1. finish the transgression
2. make an end of sins
3. make reconciliation for iniquity
4.bring in everlasting righteousness
5.seal up the vision and prophecy
6.anoint the most Holy

Dan 9:25 Know therefore and understand, [that] from the going forth of the
commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince
[shall be] seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built
again, and the wall, even in troublous times.


Dan 2:37 Thou, O king, [art] a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and

strength, and glory.

1Ch 29:11 Thine, O LORD, [is] the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the

majesty: for all [that is] in the heaven and in the earth [is thine]; thine [is] the kingdom, O LORD, and thou

art exalted as head above all.

Mat 6:13 .........For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
