I’m new posting, versus reading/researching privately, so apologies if this is not the appropriate thread to post this in.

I’ve been trying to elaborate on the following dots:

In 1 John 5, a disabled man is found near the Pool of Bethesda by Jesus. 1 John 5:5 notes the man was 38 years old, the same age JFK Jr (“John-John”) was when he purportedly died - this was pointed out by another researcher. The figure “5:5” is ambiguously (as far as I’m aware) used by Q.

President JFK’s body was brought to a Bethesda hospital after he died, where it is said that doctors found his brain had been removed.

Trump and Melanie married at Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church (also near Trump’s Mar a Lago club, where an Epstein victim elleges she was nabbed from and put into sex slavery).

Lastly, Skyrim notified me of the existence of Bethesda games, where Trump’s younger brother once served on the board of.

Is there significance here? Is Bethesda simply a notable name, and so oft used, or is there more? Does John 5 hint at something more hidden?

I can see how that translation could be interpreted as saying that people might die more than once. But, it does not clearly say that all people die many times. It says however many. Implying the possibility of more than once. But not necessarily more than once, and not that every individual dies more than once. Interesting, though.

Well, I am of the numeric mind, in that I think numerology and such will tell more than different translations of the Bible. I think God’s message transcends language and translation, along with human intervention (or attempts at). However, anon that pointed out a translation here should not be disregarded either… how would one use different translations and harmonize them with the different numerical values they’d elicit?

It just might be the way to do things, but we are talking about a 2,000 some page book here.

33 is a favorite among “them.” Jesus = 33 at death.

Biblestudy.org has some goods info on numbers in the Bible.

33 supposed to represent promises. 33rd time Noah’s name is mentioned is when God makes the promise after the flood.

Rainbow is supposed to represent this, and could be an inverse of that promise when the occult uses the rainbow.

Used to represent relationships that don’t really result in the production of offspring. Depopulation agenda, whereas God saved a male and female of all species to continue population.

“Somewhere over the rainbow” - like somewhere “beyond” God’s promise?

“Elohim” mentioned 33 times in Genesis (originally, I guess). Others.

It’s incredibly dangerous for anyone to go around condemning/damning/cursing someone else because their belief differs from your own. Humility is an extremely important virtue, taught by Jesus, that you seem to be missing when you claim that you know the right translation/interpretation concerning Christian theology, and that others are wrong, and so not Christian. Or are going to hell, etc.

Don’t be prideful! Don’t be arrogant!

I struggle with this myself.

We need to learn from each other, and the more people belittle others, the less information we are receiveing.

And don’t mess up this thread for lurkers with immature bullying/fighting. It just makes Christians look bad.

Jesus is definitely for me. I am His.

Never said fighting lies and evil is bad. Of course it’s not. It’s fantastic.

I just, personally, don’t think you’re method of fighting is a productive one. I don’t think you’re way of communicating is going to be effective in helping others understand and fight for Jesus.

God is more more powerful than any. His ways are not our ways, his thoughts not our thoughts. We must be humble toward each other, but especially humble toward him.

He has ensured the preservation and continuation of His word.

No institution or entity can disrupt that, as I believe it’s God’s will that the Bible remain whole for all people.

The Bible is not wrong. Each book is true.
