John,
Thanks for sending me your post of November 19. I have been away for a couple of days, and would otherwise have missed it. Your calculations are indeed awesome. Your suggestion that "If Jesus were the Creator of the heavens and the earth... One should be able to find His signature in all of Creation" is true indeed. And we do find it there. Let me suggest a few examples.
Of course you are aware of the size of the earth, bearing His number 3168 (Lord Jesus Christ = 3168). This is the perimeter of a square drawn tangent to the earth (touching it on all four sides). But let's go out beyond the earth to the entire solar system. If we list the distance that light travels from the sun to each of the nine planets (dropping the zeros) we find their aggregate is 9954 in millions of miles. The list looks like this:
36 Mercury
67 Venus
93 Earth
142 Mars
483 Jupiter
886 Saturn
1,782 Uranus
2,793 Neptune
3,672 Pluto
-----
9,954
If we considered this as a giant circle representing our solar system, then its diameter would be 3168. Surely He put His signature not only in our earth, but in our entire solar system.
Isaiah gave a description of the creation of the heavens and the earth. He put it very succinctly in chapter 42:5 "God Jehovah, creating the heavens and stretching them out; spreading out the earth and its offspring, giving breath to the people on it and spirit to those walking in it." This entire verse has a total Gematria value of 3168. It is no mere coincidence -- it is clearly a message to us that the Lord Jesus Christ, whose number is 3168, is the One who created all things.
He was not only the One who created man, He is the One who redeems man. Isaiah again prophesied His agony on Calvary when he wrote: "He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied; by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities." Amazingly this whole verse has a Gematria value of 3168.
Yes, you are surely correct when you suggested that His signature would be found in His work of creation. There is so much more that could be given as evidence, but I don't want to make this post too lengthy.
Thank you for publishing these beautiful things to all the world.

Thanks, Bonnie! The number 3168 is magnificent! The Hebrew values for EL (God singular) and ELOHIM (God plural) are 31 and 86 respectively. The Greek value for the LORD JESUS CHRIST, i.e. 3168, is an amalgam of 31 and 68 (86 reflected).
