The original Bible has been scientifically proven to be the unique singular Word Of GOD. It was created by GOD with encoded messaging to humanity on four different levels. The original Bible is one long-coded string of 1.2 million Hebrew letters that never changed. Each of the 22 Hebrew letters is coded with two numbers between 1 and 510. A change of even one letter will hinder GOD’s coded message.

While the original Bible was created by GOD and is encoded with messaging to humanity on four different levels, any human translation becomes merely a “story of the Bible” written based on a human understanding and interpretation of the complex, coded original Hebrew Bible. Since only the Hebrew letters, words, and parables are embedded with the code, any translation will lose any divine messaging and become merely a story, as understood by a mere human. Can a human interpretation, or mistranslated book, like KJV, be really holy? Is that the Word Of GOD or the word of another man?
Letters: 1,197,000; Words: 305,490; Verses: 23,206; Chapters: 929; Books: 39 code2CODE value: 78,091,262 Shortest verse: 9 letters in 1 Chronicles 1:1 אדם שת אנוש Adam, Sheth, Enosh, Longest verse: 193 letters in Esther 8:9 ויקראו ספרי המלך בעת ההיא בחדש השלישי הוא חדש סיון בשלושה ועשרים בו ויכתב ככל אשר צוה מרדכי אל היהודים ואל האחשדרפנים והפחות ושרי המדינות אשר מהדו ועד כוש שבע ועשרים ומאה מדינה מדינה ומדינה ככתבה ועם ועם כלשנו ואל היהודים ככתבם וכלשונם Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month, that [is], the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth [day] thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which [are] from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

The WORD OF GOD is ONE word made of 1,197,000 Hebrew letters. Each of the 22 Hebrew letters is coded with two unique values between 1 to 510. The scientific code2GOD (32 mathematical methods) allows the decoding God messaging to humanity of the original Bible in an extremely accurate way.

A change of even one letter in the string word of 1,197,000 will void the coding in the WORD OF GOD. The WORD OF GOD is coded with scientific data not yet known to humans, as well as information on how humans were “wired”, ways to maximize our social relationships, and those with God and nature.
