Election Bible Codes

While reading at another blog, I came across some Bible Code information concerning the candidates during election 2008. One of the codes REALLY DISTURBED ME, and so I did not want to link to the website that was actually taking it upon themselves to "predict" what could possibly happen. That is not what typical Bible Code research is all about. Interpretation of the codes is generally more reliable after the fact.



I originally became interested in Bible Codes when I discovered the existence of Jesus the Messiah Codes via Grant Jeffrey's two books - "The Signature of God - Astonishing Biblical Discoveries" and "The Handwriting of God."

Today, I decided to go over to Bible Code Digest, which is (IMHO) a much more reliable source for researching Bible Codes.

There is a huge amount of information there!

First, I read the page that described both McCain and Obama - which were found prior to the election. Then, I reached a page which listed many, many more Bible code links.

Bible Code Digest

There are Christians who do not take the Bible Codes seriously. Some, in fact, claim that they are "extra-biblical" and therefore, do not qualify as being legitimate in any way. I can respect the views of those who think that way. However, many, many situations (including the terrorist attacks on 9/11) have been found in the Bible codes after the fact. Therefore, the codes are not necessarily predicting things (as in the occult), but are actually revealing what has already happened.

As an example, we could look at one of the codes listed on the Obama Code chart and see that it has already happened and is true.

The code states:

"Please, let the joyous B. Obama be wiped out - he is constructing for me many swindles."

The interpreter of the code states:

"He has an opponent who wishes to destroy him. The opponent appears to be jealous of him and accuses him of wrongdoing."

Now, we could interpret this person to be Hillary Clinton since she lost the Democratic nomination to Obama. Or, could this be a reference to the Philip J. Berg lawsuit?

So, we see that interpretation of these codes are not an exact science - mostly because of the impressions and biases of the people making the assumptions for their meaning.

Then again, there are codes that are totally unambiguous - like in the case of the 9/11/01 terrorists attacks on American soil.


Here are just a few of the codes (and accompanying interpretations) that I found quite interesting:

Startling Election Codes Surface: Part II The Barack Obama Codes

A Post-Election Look at
Pre-Election Code Findings

Note what the code authors state:

Three pre-election BCD issues presented Bible code findings about the various presidential and vice-presidential candidates.

While BCD does not believe that Bible codes can be reliably used to make predictions, it is our position that such codes typically represent expressions of well-known points-of-view. Many of these codes appear to hit that target. Check out our pre-election articles and see whether or not you agree.

On this page we find some codes that could represent negative things about Obama:

B. Obama (2.9)



B. Obama was enlightened to provide advice,
the exalted one will be compensated,
and from his might will emanate a flute.



The first phrase of the code could refer to Obama's education and preparation for the role of president. Regarding the second phrase, it would be quite a stretch to refer to any presidential candidate as the exalted one. However, Obama has been dubbed "the one" in the media (see CNN and The New York Times).

At first, we thought the last phrase, and from his might will emanate a flute, trailed off into baffling, albeit poetic, imagery, but then, we Googled "Obama flute" and discovered several references that may help our understanding of this code.

Power Line, February 16, 2008, The Return of Sister Flute

The Aspen Times, July 15, 2008, Obama: America's Rainbow Mood Ring

Barack Obama's Official Website, January 16, 2008, The Pied Piper of Truth

After looking up these references, we came away with the image of Obama's rhetoric acting upon his audiences like the music from the flute of the Pied Piper, which is actually not a very flattering reference. Here is an excerpt from the plot synopsis of the fable The Pied Piper of Hamelin from Wikipedia.

In 1284, while the town of Hamelin was suffering from a rat infestation, a man dressed in colourful garments appeared, claiming to be a rat-catcher. He promised the townsmen a solution for their problem with the rats. The townsmen in turn promised to pay him for the removal of the rats. The man accepted, and thus played a musical pipe to lure the rats with a song into the Weser River, where all of them drowned. Despite his success, the people reneged on their promise and refused to pay the rat-catcher. The man left the town angrily, but returned some time later, seeking revenge.

While the inhabitants were in church, he played his pipe again, this time attracting the children of Hamelin. One hundred and thirty boys and girls followed him out of the town, where they were lured into a cave and never seen again. Depending on the version, at most two children remained behind (one of whom was lame and could not follow quickly enough, the other one was deaf and followed the other children out of curiosity) who informed the villagers of what had happened when they came out of the church.

On the one hand, the idea of Obama being able to sway audiences with his charismatic rhetoric can be romaticized like that of the Pied Piper playing his flute to lure the rats out of town, but the latter part of the Pied Piper story raises questions of how will this charisma ultimately be used and what motivations lurk beneath the surface?

The following one is an example of what I found most disturbing at the other site that discussed some of the codes mentioning Obama.

Joe Biden was conspiring for him while saturating and exhausting. He was declining a shot [a bullet?] under a high place, and struck some monument.

The last code could perhaps be alluding to fears of a possible assassination attempt against Obama.

However, if you click on the October 29, 2008 posting about the Palin and Biden codes we read:

Joe Biden Code #2—



Joe Biden was conspiring for him while saturating and exhausting –
he was declining shot under a high place, and struck some monument.



Comments: If this code refers to the campaign, it could be referring to Biden's behavior during the campaign in a negative light. If so, it would imply that Biden's campaign as Obama's running mate is being conducted in a conspiring manner. Without more information, it is unclear what a high place and some monument are, unless perhaps they are symbols of the presidency or of Washington, D.C.



*****



Joe Biden Code #4—



You emerged in the cell near the site of Joe Biden.



Comments: Perhaps the site of Joe Biden refers to Biden's stance on different political topics or his political agenda. Since Biden has been in politics for many more years than Obama, then you emerged in the cell near the site could refer to Obama emerging on the scene having a similar political agenda as Biden's. Another possible meaning for site could refer to his website.

Some of the codes have turned out to be astonishingly accurate! Especially when we read the "Obama Table" on this page.

I find such research quite fascinating.

What do you think about these Bible codes? What do you think about the discovery of Bible Codes in general?
