Bible Numerics
Bible numerics and gematria are certainly not everyone's cup of tea as they can be quite complicated.
If you don't understand bible numerics, don't worry too much about. Nevertheless, if you want to understand the book of Revelation, learning bible numerics is required.
Indeed, bible numerics are one of the ways that expose the manifestations of the Godhead, Israel and the church. The numbers one through nine (1-9) plays a very vital roll in the kingdom of God and are related to one another.
Bible numerics is the study of mathematical patterns in the original Hebrew text where letters are transposed into numbers. There are 22 letters in the Hebrew alphabet. Many Christians believe that it is connected with the name of Ivan Panin of Aldershot, Ontario, who made this subject a specialty for more than fifty years.
So what Dr. Panin did was to change the letters into numbers and according to his research, he found out that every letter, word, sentence, section, paragraph of the book are not there by random. There's a proper and unique system to it that is so complicated that only God could have created it.
He found out that the numbers of words beginning with a vowel or consonant can be divided by 7. The numbers of words or letters in the vocabulary can be divided by 7 too. The number of nouns, proper names, males names and female names can all be divided by 7. As you can see, the number 7 is the key to understanding the bible.
