Information about numbers in the Bible?

In his book The Bible Code, journalist Michael Drosnin claims to have discovered hidden messages by means of computer analysis of the Hebrew Scriptures. According to Drosnin’s claims, the “code” yielded the words “assassin that will assassinate” along with the name Yitzhak Rabin—and this was found a year before Israeli Prime Minister Rabin was killed.

As expected, The Bible Code created its share of controversy. Dave Thomas, a mathematician and physicist, demonstrated that computer analysis of any text will produce what appear to be cryptic messages. Analyzing Drosnin’s own text, Thomas came up with the words “code,” “silly,” and “hoax.” “Hidden messages can be found anywhere,” Thomas says, “provided you’re willing to invest time and effort to harvest the vast field of probability.”

With its capability of making an unlimited number of calculations, a computer would likely find some combinations of letters that could be used as some sort of prediction. But this is merely a coincidence and does not prove that the Bible contains hidden messages.*

Why would there be a reason to have a hidden code in the bible when it tells you in proper English exactly what is going to happen next? Isn't that enough for you?

Anyone who has an understanding of statistics, can tell you that letters and numbers can be manipulated to mean anything you want them to mean.

Anyone who has an understanding of the bible, can tell you that

seeking a code or a secret sign anywhere, to guide your life is a form of witchcraft and forbidden to God's people.

So, your choice is -

You can please God and obey His commandments and live forever after Armageddon, or

You can please men like the one who wrote such nonsense and die with the rest of those who rebel against their creator.
