WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT THE GAME…

Players across the country are raving about The Great Bible Race.

See what they are saying…

I am born again in the name of the lord Jesus Christ. I would like to write an endorsement of approval about “The Great Bible Race.” This is a great game. That has made learning the bible and scriptures easier for me and my family. There have been many times were I have read the bible and something might not make sense to me, but with this program has placed another tool that can equip families on how to educate themselves on the bible. Sincerely,

Shaun Miller

 

Just a few lines of “Thanks” for this outstanding video game, The Great Bible Race. My son Moses, age 9, just enjoy beating me at the “Race” game, but I always close him out at the very end. The Great Bible Race is a wonderful Bible teaching tool for my family. We discuss the stories and questions with our son. We have family and friends in the DC, MD, VA, NJ, NY and NC that have purchased the games and are enjoying it. What a great way to promote the LOVE of God in a video trivia game. This is second only to the Number 1 selling book in the world, The Bible!!! Thank You & God Bless,

Rev. Moses Vincent, Jr.

 

Just wanted to share a few words with you regarding the Great Bible Race. Thank you for this wonderful trivia game. I found it to be relaxing, challenging and knowledgeable. I am always excited to learn more about God’s word. I find myself spending hours playing the race and watching me running the race. This is truly an awesome stress reliever. I would recommend this trivia game for everyone, especially if one would like to know more of God’s word and promises. Thanks again and may God continue to bless you.

Jean Stevenson

 

I am writing to share my satisfaction with the DVD that I purchased Great Bible Race for my family and I. After viewing and playing the DVD with my family, I was astonished by how educational, entertaining and empowering the tape was for learning the Bible. I consider my family to be well informed and knowledgeable about the Word. However, after playing the Great Bible Race Game, it became very clear that we did not know as much as we thought. I love the way it gives you the option to choose easy or hard questions. I really see myself growing in my knowledge of the word by choosing the different levels. In addition, my eleven and eight year old children are constantly playing the games and learning about he Lord at the same time. As an Education and Communication Consultant, I understand the importance of an engagement approach to learning. And, that is what you get from this DVD. I am letting all my friends and co-workers know about this wonderful resource for families and Christian education institutions. So, I want to thank you for blessing us with a wonderful recourse. I look forward to being entertained and growing as a Christian.

Dr. Carmen White President, Dramatic Solutions, Inc.

 

This game, which draws its 14,000 questions from all 66 books of the bible, is a powerful tool for disseminating God’s word. And we know that God has promised in Isaiah 55:11 that his word will not return to him void.

6 thoughts on “The Great Bible Race – Product Review

  1. How has your day been going?

    Please allow me to some very significant news that’s been spreading throughout the internet regarding our future security.

    We are coming towards a future of a one world cashless society in which we will be mandated to receive an RFID chip implanted in our body. This chip will store our data and we will lose much more of our privacy because of the tracking potential.

    Even bigger news, have you heard that this was prophesied almost two thousand years ago by a man named Jesus? How could this be? Keep reading to see… This may be the most important article you will ever read.

    ..”Also he(the false prophet) compels all alike, both small and great, both the rich and the poor, both free and slave, to be marked with an inscription on their right hands or on their foreheads,

    So that no one will have power to buy or sell unless he bears the stamp (mark, inscription), that is the name of the beast or the number of his name.

    Here is discernment. Let anyone who has intelligence (penetration and insight enough) calculate the number of the beast, for it is a human number; his number is 666″ (Revelation 13:16-18 AMPC)..

    Speaking of the final times, this can only be pointing to a society where physical currency is no more, which has yet to occur, but we are on the horizon of. Why? Why so? How come? Because we could still buy or sell without accepting the mark of the beast among one another if tangible money was still in use. It logically deduces itself to this reason.

    The mark cannot be anything spiritual, because the word references two distinct physical spots. If it was spiritual, it would just say in the forehead.

    This is just the beginning. It is astonishing how perfect the Bible is in regards to this RFID chip. Here are the details from a person named Carl Sanders who worked with a bunch of engineers to help develop this RFID chip in the 90’s.

    Carl Sanders attended 17 New World Order conferences with heads of state officials such as Henry Kissinger and Bob Gates of the CIA to discuss plans on how to bring forth this one-world system. The US government commissioned Carl Sanders to engineer a microchip for identifying and controlling the peoples of the world-a microchip that would be inserted beneath the skin with a hypodermic needle(a quick, convenient system that would be progressively accepted by the nations).

    Carl Sanders, along with a team of engineers behind him, with US grant monies provided by US tax dollars, took on this assignment and designed a microchip that’s powered by a lithium battery, rechargeable by means of the temperature fluctuations in our skin. Without the understanding of the Bible (Mr. Sanders was not a believer at the time), these men spent one-and-a-half-million dollars doing research on the best and most convenient location to have the RFID chip placed in the body.

    These researchers discovered that the forehead and the back of the hand(the two locations Revelation says the mark will be placed) are not only the most convenient places, however are additionally the only viable locations for fast, consistent temperature changes within the skin to recharge the lithium battery. The microchip is about 7 millimeters in length, .75 millimeters in diameter, about the size of a grain of rice. It is capable of storing many pages of data you. All of your general records, work information, crime information, health data, and financial records will be stored on this microchip.

    Carl Sanders believes that this RFID chip, which he regretfully helped bring forth, is the “mark of the beast” spoke of in Revelation 13:16-18. The Greek word for “mark” is “charagma,” which means a “scratch or etching.” It is also fascinating to observe that the number 666 is a word in the original Greek language. This word being “chi xi stigma,” with the end word, “stigma,” additionally meaning “to stick or prick. Carl believes this is referencing to the usage of a hypodermic needle being poked in the human flesh to insert the chip.”

    Mr. Sanders reached out to a doctor asking what would take place if the lithium contained in the RFID chip was exposed in the human body. The physician answered by saying a horrible sore would appear in that location. This is what the scriptures of Revelation 16:2 says:

    “And the first went and poured out his bowl into the land— and a bad and evil sore came upon the people having the mark of the beast and the ones giving worship to his image” (Revelation 16:2 DLNT).

    The holy scriptures tell us we cannot buy or sell without accepting the mark, or the number of its name. The number being identified as 666. The Bible tells us to calculate the number 666. How do we calculate 666?

    This is where it all tops off. Counting the number 666 has been long debated throughout the centuries, but has now been revealed in these last times by the revelation of God. What I will show you establishes itself with the holy scriptures the true meaning to calculate six-six-six.

    In the Bible, God uses the number three for confirmation. Allow me to share some examples:

    “For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one” (1 John 5:7 NKJV).

    “and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:4 NKJV).

    “…Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!” (Revelation 4:8 NKJV).

    What is interesting is the the mark of the beast is described in detail in three distinct verses (Revelation 13:16,17,18), and each verse lists three different characteristics of the given subject. The last three being the number six being used 3 times in a row. Here is a key point to solving how to calculate the number 666.

    What does it mean to calculate? It means to add up. So how could we add up 666? Remember my previous point regarding God confirming in threes. So logically, what would be the most rational way to add up the number 666? To count it equally in 3’s based off the number. It is not sensible to count it equally as 600+60+6, this would also take us back to the start. We cannot count it as 600+600+600, or 60+60+60, because there are no zeroes in between or at the end of 666. The only reasonable explanation we are left with is 6+6+6=18. What is interesting is that the verse that reveals for us to count the number of the beast itself is verse 18, being the 3rd verse out of 3 verses that describe the mark. What is 18 divided by 3? 6. So 3×6=18, or 6+6+6=18.

    Another fascinating point is the only two other combinations (making a combined total of three possible combinations) for placing a plus symbol in between the 6’s are 66+6=72, and 6+66=72. Count both 72’s together and you get 144. Why the number 144 is interesting is because the verse following Revelation 13:18 is the first time in the Holy Bible where the 144,000 are being described in detail:

    “Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads…” (Revelation 14:1).

    If we add up all 3 numbers by counting 666 by moving the plus symbol around in all three possible combinations, it would be 72+72+18=162. What is interesting about the number 162, is, if you divide 144,000 by 162, you get 888. The name of Jesus in Greek gematria calculates to 888. The New Testament was written in the Greek language. Revelation 14:1 not only mentions the 144,000, but also the Lamb being Jesus Christ.

    Now what is interesting concerning the number for Jesus, 888, is that if you apply this same formula, you get 8+8+8=24. Why the number 24? Revelation chapter 4 tells us there are 24 elders seated around the throne of God. This is the same throne where Jesus sits:

    “Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads” (Revelation 4:2-4).

    Now if you take 8+8+8=24, and 8+88=96, and 88+8=96, you get 24+96+96=216. Take 144,000 divided by 216 and you get 666. Take into account that this was the exact formulation to get the value 162 out of counting 666 that brought about the numeral 888 when dividing 144,000 by 162. It is perpetual.

    With utilizing the identical method of counting by adding the “+” symbol in between the numbers, why do all these numbers relate in such a manner?

    Yet another fascinating point to note is that if you add up all of the numbers from 1 to 36, it totals 666. The number 36, as in three sixes? Could this be a sign that we ought to add up three sixes instead of perceiving the number as six-hundred sixty six?

    So what could this imply? We all know in this world we’re recognized by numbers in various forms. From our birth certificates to our social security card, also with our drivers license, being identified founded on a system of ruler ship. So it is plausible that this RFID microchip will incorporate a brand new identification that has a total of 18 characters.

    Could this be the title of the beast, the number of its name? The one-world beast system which is identified by 18 characters? This could match the scriptures that speaks of a mark that we ought to have to buy or sell in our right hand or forehead, and that it also contains the number of the beast, in the course of a future cashless money society.

    The scriptures warns us in the end times that a false prophet will stand up performing miracles to deceive many to receive this mark:

    “Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image” (Revelation 19:20).

    At ALL COSTS, resist the mark!

    “Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name” (Revelation 14:9-11).

    We’re living in very prophetic times with very important Biblical prophecies coming to pass. When Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as capital of Israel on December 6th of ’17, this was a big step to bring about the Third Temple prophesied in the Bible.

    The scriptures warns us that the Antichrist will seat himself in this temple:

    “…and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God” (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4).

    In the Islamic faith, they have a figure known as the Mahdi, referred to as their messiah who they are waiting to be revealed.

    Jesus says, “And He said to them, ‘I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven'” (Luke 10:18).

    Regardless, whomsoever seats himself in the Third Temple in Jerusalem, declaring themselves to be God WILL BE THE ANTICHRIST. NEVER FORGET.

    Why do we need Jesus Christ?

    “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 2:23).

    “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23).

    Our own works cannot save us. If we step before a judge in the court of law, being guilty of a crime, the judge will not judge us by the good that we’ve carried out, but rather the crimes we have committed. If we as fallen humanity, created in God’s image, pose this type of moral justice, how much greater is a perfect, righteous, and Holy creator?

    God has delivered to us His ethical regulation by the ten commandments handed to Moses at Mt. Siani. These laws were not given so we may be justified, however in order that we could see the need for a saviour. They are the mirror of God’s character of what He has put in each and every one of us, with our conscious bearing witness that we all know that it’s wrong to steal, lie, dishonor our parents, and so forth.

    We can attempt to comply with all the moral laws of the ten commandments, but we’ll never catch up to them to be justified before a Holy God. The same word of the law received by Moses became flesh over 2000 years ago inside the body of Jesus Christ. He came to be our justification by perfectly fulfilling the law, living a sinless life that solely God may fulfill.

    The distance between us and the law can in no way be reconciled by our own merit, however the arm of Jesus is stretched out by the grace and mercy of God. And if we’re to seize hold of, through faith in Him, He will pull us up being the one to justify us. As within the court of law, if somebody steps in and pays your debt, even though you’re guilty, the judge can do what’s legal and just and let you go free. This is what Jesus did almost 2000 years in the past on the cross. It was a legal transaction being fulfilled within the spiritual realm by the shedding of His blood, with His last words being, “…It is finished!…” (John 19:30).

    Now why did Jesus have to die for us?

    Due to the fact that God is Holy and just, the wrath that we deserve could not be brushed away. Through the perfect righteousness and justice of God’s character, it ought to be reconciled, it must be quenched and satisfied.

    For God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked (Ezekiel 18:23). That is why in Isaiah chapter 53, where it speaks of the coming Messiah and His soul being a sacrifice for our sins, why it says it satisfied God to crush His only begotten Son.

    That is due to the fact the wrath that we deserve was justified by being poured out upon His Son. For if it was poured out on us who have earned it, we would all perish and go to hell. God created a means of escape by pouring it out on His Son who’s soul could not be left in Hades, but was raised and seated on the right hand of God in power.

    Now when we put on the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 13:14), God no longer looks at the person who deserves His wrath, but now the glorious image of His perfect Son dwelling within, justifying us as if we acquired the wrath we deserve, making a way of escape from the curse of death.

    Now what we ought to do is repent and believe in the saviour, confessing and forsaking our sins. That is not just a head knowledge of believing in Jesus, but rather receiving His words, taking them to heart. Where we no longer live to exercise sin, however turn away from our sins and practice righteousness:

    “Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).

    By doing so we may become transformed into the image of God by way of faith in His Son Christ Jesus Who’s willing to present the Holy Spirit to those that ask of Him:

    “Most assuredly, I (Jesus) say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ (John 3:5-6).

    “But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His” (Romans 8:9).

    What are you waiting for? Our Father in heaven only wants the best for us all, restoring everything this world has stolen from us. That is what it means to be “holy”. To be made whole.

    He’s waiting to hear from you. That God given tongue to speak language, by faith, pray to Him, ask Him to forgive you by confessing to Him your sins and be willing to forsake them; that you receive the sacrifice of His Son Jesus on the cross, and that you need His Holy Spirit residing inside you transforming you into a child of God.

    Jesus says, “but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him(the Holy Spirit) will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

    Did you realize that Jesus spoke more about hell than anyone else in God’s word, even more than He spoke about heaven?! For this very cause He was brought forth to die for us, to deliver us from this place that we earned by our sins against a holy God.

    He describes hell as a real place where,

    “Their worm does not die
    And the fire is not quenched” (Mark 9:44).

    And where,

    “There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth…” (Luke 13:28).

    Jesus tells us who to fear,

    “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:28).

    “Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.’

    Then He who sat on the throne said, ‘Behold, I make all things new.’ And He said to me, ‘Write, for these words are true and faithful.’

    And He said to me, ‘It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.'” (Revelation 21:1-8).

    Out of all the world religions, how can we be sure the Bible has it all right? The scientific facts has established and continues to support that the universe once had a starting point wherein space, time and matter were created. Many know this as the big bang.

    “The non-biblical religions tell us that god or god’s create within space and time that eternally exist. The Bible stands alone and says that time and space don’t exist until God creates the universe.” – Astronomer(Phd) Hugh Ross

    The Bible not only got it all correct that space, time and matter all came into existence at the beginning of the universe, it also states in 7 different scriptures that the universe is is continuing to expand thousands of years earlier than scientists discovered this information.

    Did you know that the actual Noah’s Ark was found in the place where God’s holy word instructed us it would be with the right dimensions? As well as proof for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah; and the Exodus event of the Red Sea crossing?

    The Bible is by far the most translated and examined historical book in the history of the world, full of predictive prophecies, matching what we discover inside the book of nature. Would not you assume God’s word to be so?

  2. How are you?

    I’d like to share some extremely important news that has been making its way all over the internet concerning our future well being.

    We are advancing towards a future of a one-world cashless money society where we will be mandated to have an RFID chip implanted in our body. This chip will store our personal data and we will lose our privacy due to the tracking technology.

    Even more of a concern, did you hear that this was predicted around two thousand years ago by a major historical figure named Jesus Christ? Hard to believe? Continue reading… This may be the most important article you will read.

    • “And he shall make all, both little and great, rich and poor, freemen and bondmen, to have a character in their right hand, or on their foreheads.

    And that no man might buy or sell, but he that hath the character, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

    Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man: and the number of him is six hundred sixty-six” (Revelation 13:16-18 DRA)…

    Referring to the final times, this can only be speaking of a cashless society, which has yet to occur, but we are heading towards. Why so? Because we would be able to buy or sell without accepting the mark of the beast among one another if tangible currency was still in use. It logically deduces itself to this reason.

    This mark can not be anything spiritual, because the word references two distinct physical spots. If it was to be spiritual, the text would only conclude one place.

    This is where it really starts to come together. It is startling how on the nail the scriptures are with respect to this RFID chip. Here are some notes from a guy named Carl Sanders who worked with a bunch of engineers to help invent this RFID microchip in the 90’s.

    Carl Sanders attended 17 New World Order conferences with heads of state officials such as Henry Kissinger and Bob Gates of the CIA to discuss plans on how to bring about this one-world system. The government commissioned Carl Sanders to design a microchip for identifying and controlling the peoples of the nations-a microchip that could be placed underneath the skin with a hypodermic needle(a fast, convenient system that would be progressively accepted by the world).

    Carl Sanders, along with a group of engineers with him, with U.S. grant monies supplied by tax dollars, took on this challenge and produced a RFID chip which is powered by a lithium battery, rechargeable by means of the temperature fluctuations in our skin. Without the knowledge of the Bible (Brother Sanders was not a follower of Jesus at the time), these engineers spent one and a half million dollars gathering data on the best and most convenient spot to have the RFID chip placed in the body.

    Guess what? These researchers determined that the forehead and the back of the hand(the two places Revelation says the mark will be placed) aren’t only the most convenient locations, however are also the only viable spots for constant, consistent temperature changes in the skin to recharge the lithium battery. The microchip is about 7 millimeters in length, .75 millimeters in diameter, about the dimensions of a grain of rice. It’s capable of storing pages upon pages of information about you. All your standard information, work history, crime information, health information, and financial history will be stored on this chip.

    Mr. Sanders believes that this RFID microchip, which he remorsefully helped bring about, is the “mark” spoken about in Revelation 13:16-18. The Greek word for “mark” is “charagma,” which is defined as a “scratch or etching.” It is also fascinating to observe that the number 666 is actually a word in the original Greek. This word being “chi xi stigma,” with the final part, “stigma,” additionally meaning “to stick or prick. Mr. Sanders believes that is referring to the use of a hypodermic needle being poked into a person to insert the chip.”

    Mr. Sanders spoke with a doctor asking what would occur if the lithium contained within the microchip was exposed in the body. The doctor replied by saying a terrible sore would manifest in that spot. Now this is what the book of Revelation has to say:

    “And the first(angel) went, and poured out his bowl into the earth; and it became a noisome and grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and that worshipped his image” (Revelation 16:2 ASV).

    The Bible tells us that we cannot buy or sell without accepting the mark of the beast, or the number of its name. This number is identified as 666. God’s word us to count the number 666. How can we calculate 666?

    This is where it becomes an eye opener. Calculating the number of the beast 666 has been long debated throughout centuries, but has finally been uncovered in these last days by God. What you will read confirms itself with the Bible the true interpretation to calculate 666.

    Through God’s Holy word, God uses the number 3 as confirmation of things. Allow me to share a few examples:

    “For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one” (1 John 5:7 NKJV).

    “and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:4 NKJV).

    “…Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!” (Revelation 4:8 NKJV).

    What is interesting is the the mark of the beast is revealed in detail in three different verses (Revelation 13:16,17,18), and each verse lists 3 different characteristics of the given subject. The final 3 being the number 6 used 3 times in a row. This is a key point to deciphering how to calculate the number 666.

    What does it mean to count the number of the beast, 666? It means to add up. So how could we add up 666? Recall back to my earlier key point about God confirming in threes. Now logically, what would be the best way to count the number 666? To add it up equally in 3’s based off the number. It is not sensible to count it equally as 600+60+6, this would also bring us back to the start. We are not able to count it as 600+600+600, or 60+60+60, because there are no zeroes in between or at the end of 666. The only reasonable explanation we are left with is 6+6+6=18. What is fascinating is that the verse that tells us to count the number itself is verse 18, being the 3rd verse out of three verses that describe the mark of the beast. Now what is 18 divided by 3? 6. So 3×6=18, or 6+6+6=18.

    Another fascinating point is that the two other possible combinations (bringing a combined total of three possible combinations) for placing a plus symbol in between the 6’s are 66+6=72, and 6+66=72. Add both 72’s together and you get 144. Why the number 144 is interesting is because the verse following Revelation 13:18 is the first time in the scriptures where the 144,000 are being mentioned in detail:

    “Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads…” (Revelation 14:1).

    Now if you add up all three numbers by counting 666 by moving the plus symbol around in all 3 possible combinations, it would be 72+72+18=162. What is fascinating about the number 162, is, if you divide 144,000 by 162, you get 888. The name for Jesus in Greek gematria adds up to 888. The New Testament was originally written in the Greek language. Revelation 14:1 not only mentions the 144,000, but also the Lamb who is the Son of God, Jesus.

    Now what is fascinating about the number for Jesus, 888, is that if you apply this same formula, you get 8+8+8=24. Why the number 24? Revelation chapter 4 tells us there are 24 elders seated around the throne of God. This is the same throne where Jesus sits:

    “Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads” (Revelation 4:2-4).

    Now if you take 8+8+8=24, and 8+88=96, and 88+8=96, you get 24+96+96=216. Take 144,000 divided by 216 and you get 666. Take into account that this was the exact method to get the value 162 out of counting 666 that brought about the value 888 when dividing 144,000 by 162. It’s perpetual.

    With making use of the same formula of counting by adding the plus symbol in between the numbers, why do all these numbers relate in such a manner?

    Yet another fascinating factor to note is that if you add up all the numbers from 1 to 36, it totals 666. The number 36, as in three sixes? Could this be a sign that we ought to add up three sixes as opposed to perceiving the number as six-hundred sixty six?

    So what could this imply? We know in this world we are recognized by numbers in numerous forms. From our birth certificates to our social security card, as well as our drivers license, being identified founded on a system of ruler ship. So it is plausible that this RFID chip will comprise a brand new identification that has a total of 18 characters.

    May this be the title of the beast, the number of its name? The one-world beast system that’s identified by 18 characters? This may fit the scriptures that speaks of a mark that we ought to have to buy or sell in our right-hand or forehead, and that it additionally incorporates the number of the beast, during a future cashless money society.

    Go to: https://biblefreedom.com to see all the proof!

    The Holy scriptures warns us in the last days that a false prophet will stand up doing miraculous signs to deceive many to receive this mark:

    “Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image” (Revelation 19:20).

    Whatever it takes, DO NOT RECEIVE IT!

    “Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name” (Revelation 14:9-11).

    We are dwelling in very prophetic times with very important Biblical prophecies coming to pass. When Donald Trump acknowledged Jerusalem as capital of Israel in December of 2017, this was a massive step to fulfill the Third Temple foretold within the Holy Bible.

    God’s Holy scriptures tells us that the Antichrist will seat himself in this temple:

    “…and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God” (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4).

    Within the Islamic religion, there is a person referred to as the Mahdi, known as their messiah who they’re waiting to be revealed. There are various testimonies from individuals online who believe this man shall be Barack Obama who may be the biblical Antichrist. I personally have had unusual dreams about Obama. He got on stage declaring himself to be a follower of Jesus with no affiliation to the Muslim faith, but was later revealed by his own family members that he certainly is a faithful Muslim.

    His actual name is stated to be Barry Soetoro, and he had his name switched to Barack Obama. Why would he do this?

    Jesus says, “And He said to them, ‘I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven'” (Luke 10:18).

    In Hebrew, the word “Barack” means “lighting”, and the usage of “Bama” (Strongs Hebrew word 1116) is used to refer to the “heights” of heaven.

    The day following the election of Barack Obama (11/04/08), the winning select 3 lotto numbers in Illinois (Obama’s home state) for 11/5/08 were 666.

    Obama use to be a U.S. senator for Illinois, and his zip code was 60606.

    Regardless, whoever seats themselves in the Third Temple in Jerusalem, declaring themselves to be God WILL BE THE ANTICHRIST. NEVER FORGET.

    So, why do we need Jesus Christ?

    “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 2:23).

    “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23).

    Our good works cannot save us. If we step before a judge in the court of law, being responsible of a crime, the judge will not judge us by the good that we’ve achieved, but rather the crimes we have committed. If we as fallen humanity, created in God’s image, pose this type of justice, how much greater a perfect, righteous, and Holy God?

    God has delivered to us His moral regulation’s by way of the 10 commandments received by Moses at Mt. Siani. These laws were not given so we can be justified, however in order that we may see the need for a savior. They’re the mirror of God’s character of what He has put in every one of us, with our conscious bearing witness that we all know that it is wrong to steal, lie, dishonor our dad and mom, and so forth.

    We can attempt to follow all the ethical guidelines of the ten commandments, but we’ll by no means catch up to them to be justified before a Holy God. That same word of the law received by Moses manifested as flesh over 2000 years ago inside the body of Jesus Christ. He was brought forth to be our justification by perfectly fulfilling the commandments of God, living a sinless life that only God may accomplish.

    The space between us and the law can by no means be reconciled by our very own merit, but the arm of Jesus is stretched out by the grace and mercy of God. And if we’re to seize hold of, by way of faith in Him, He’ll pull us up being the one to justify us. As in the court of law, if someone steps in and pays your debt, despite the fact that you’re guilty, the judge can do what is legal and just and allow you to go free. That is what Jesus did nearly 2000 years in the past on the cross. It was a legal transaction being fulfilled inside the spiritual realm by the shedding of His blood, with His last words being, “…It is finished!…” (John 19:30).

    So why did Jesus have to die for us?

    Because God is Holy and just, the wrath that we deserve could not be brushed away. Because of the perfect righteousness and justice of God’s character, it ought to be reconciled, it must be quenched and satisfied.

    For God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked (Ezekiel 18:23). That is why in Isaiah chapter 53, the place it speaks of the coming Messiah and His soul being a sacrifice for our sins, why it says it satisfied God to crush His only begotten Son.

    This is due to the fact the wrath that we deserve was justified by being poured out upon His Son. For if it were to be poured out upon us deserve it, we’d all perish and go to hell. God created a means of escape by pouring it out on His Son who’s soul could not stay in Hades, however was raised and seated at the right hand of God in power.

    Now once we put on the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 13:14), God no longer see’s the man or woman who deserves His wrath, but now the glorious image of His perfect Son living in us, justifying us as if we received the wrath we deserve, making a way of escape from the curse of death.

    Now what we must do is repent and believe in the saviour, confessing and turning from our sins. That is not just a head knowledge of believing in Jesus, howeverrather receiving His words, taking them to heart. In which we no longer live to practice sin, however turn from our sins and practice righteousness:

    “Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).

    By doing so we may become transformed into the image of God by faith in His Son Christ Jesus Who is inclined to present the Holy Spirit to whoever ask of Him:

    “Most assuredly, I(Jesus) say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ (John 3:5-6).

    “But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His” (Romans 8:9).

    What are you waiting for? Our heavenly Father only wishes the best for us all, restoring every part this world has stolen from us. That is what it means to be “holy”. To be made whole.

    He’s ready to listen to you. That God given tongue to speak language, by faith, pray to Him, ask Him to forgive you by confessing your sins and be willing to forsake them; that you receive the sacrifice of His Son Jesus on the cross, and that you want His Holy Spirit residing inside you reworking you into a child of the living God.

    Jesus says, “but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him(the Holy Spirit) will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

    Did you realize that Jesus spoke more about hell than any one else in God’s holy word, even more than He spoke about heaven?! For this very reason He came to die for us, to save us from this place that we earned by our sins.

    He describes hell as a real place where,

    “Their worm does not die
    And the fire is not quenched” (Mark 9:44).

    And where,

    “There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth…” (Luke 13:28).

    Jesus tells us who to fear,

    “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:28).

    “Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.’

    Then He who sat on the throne said, ‘Behold, I make all things new.’ And He said to me, ‘Write, for these words are true and faithful.’

    And He said to me, ‘It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.'” (Revelation 21:1-8).

    Out of all the world religions, how can we be sure the Bible got it right? The scientific information has established and continues to support that the universe once had a starting point in which space, time and matter were created. Many know this as the big bang.

    “The non-biblical religions tell us that god or god’s create within space and time that eternally exist. The Bible stands alone and says that time and space don’t exist until God creates the universe.” – Astronomer(Phd) Hugh Ross

    The Bible not only got it right that space, time and matter all came into existence at the beginning of the universe, it additionally states in 7 different scriptures that the universe is in a continuous state of expansion thousands of years before scientists discovered this information.

    Did you already know that the actual Noah’s Ark was found in the place where the scriptures told us it would be with the correct dimensions? As well as proof for the destruction of the cities of Sodom & Gomorrah and the Exodus account of the Red Sea crossing?

    The Bible is the most translated and studied historical document in the history of the world, filled with predictive prophecies, matching what we find in the book of nature. Wouldn’t you expect God’s word to be so?

  3. The Great Bible Race sounds just like the book my brother would love! He has a birthday coming up real soon. I only worry that it would not get to him in time. I do believe he would enjoy this book. He does a lot of reading and is very spiritual.  

    I really didn’t see a link to purchase this.   

    Can you forward that to me?
