ADDING UP TO FAITH
In 2013 I had a remarkable Holy Week. For the most part I have kept it to myself. Yet, for the last couple years I have had the feeling my experience is a message not just for me. So, I have decided to share my experience for whoever reads this to decide for themselves if a heavenly message has been offered as an invitation to explore God's Plan for Man through simple arithmetic. For after all, if we want to be rational people; "Things need to Add Up."
Back in 2013, I read an e-book called "God's Plan for Man, Who is the Messiah-Christ?" by Dennis A. Gunn. It is a second reedited edition from the 1996 original book. On page 207 the author states; "The content presented in this book is true, but you must test it to become spiritually enlightened and strengthened. Adding to what you already have been given".
It is a bold statement. But lots of people and authors can and do make such statements saying; "This is true or that is true". So, how can we come to know something is true? Especially, if that something is something we just believe (hypothesize) to be true. Well, it seems to me the scientific method is best way. Hold up your belief as a theory then test it to see if it holds up or not with what you already know to be true.
It has been shared with me for a long time to test beliefs and statements of belief that are communicated to us. So, I will pass that advice on to you. For I have come to know that what is contained in God's Plan for Man, to be true by first believing in God's Divine Mercy and the most simple prayer; "Jesus, I trust in You".
To be honest it has not always been easy and at times a challenge to trust enough in order to understand the meaning of Divine Mercy. Which is a catholic prayer devotional promulgated by Pope John Paul II based on the Diary writings of the 20th century nun, Sister M. Faustina Kowalska who was part of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy. But, I first believed and now know that Jesus is merciful and He will always help us find the Truth in our lives, if we earnestly seek it.
So, with all that said let me get to the experience of 2013 which I should preface is the culmination of discoveries I made in 1999. It is necessary to do so in order to give you a proper perspective about the message and the invitation to read the e- book.
In June of 1999, I watched a television show called "Fire in the Sky", which was an episode from the History Channel series, "Connections" produced by science historian James Burke. In it I learned of the a 13th century Jewish mystic, Rabbi Abraham Abulafia who lived in Spain. He was a Kabbalhist who among other things practiced a form of Gematria. For Kabbalhist the secret of the universe can be found in numbers. Gematria is a formula where one "designates a number to every letter to encode the knowledge that is contained in every language hidden in its words." The formula is quantitative by design.

A quantity that shows the existence of God is evidenced by Love.
During the time I watched it, I was at a point in my life where I was investigating, even grappling, with what I perceived to be a new understanding of the Messianic message, which I believed was being presented in a book I was reading, "God's Plan for Man, Who is the Messiah-Christ?" What was being conveyed in it in many ways was outside of traditional christian doctrine.
So, I prayerfully applied the formula to the name and title "Jesus Christ" and to the name of the author of the above mentioned book. Within 20 minutes the equality of the sums were nothing less than remarkable. And, in fact, confirmed what I suspected to be true. For in the book the author conveys a new spiritual understanding of E=MC2 and the sums logically authenticated that understanding to be true.
Now, Gematria could be considered to be like a bunch of ancient anagrams. And anyone with a healthy skepticism would be able to see that numbers and words match up in all kinds of random ways and their meanings often do not match up most of the time. However, the equality of the sums I came up were so timely and statistically amazing when applied to the singular premise or idea that the author lays out in the book concerning E=MC2 that it is in that context his proposition is really validated. And in my humble opinion should not be so easily discounted.
Right now, I am going to share only one of the sums of the several that added up that night. Because I feel it is more important to share what I more recently discovered. I only share that 1999 experience as a background for the 2013 experience. But certainly this SUM should bolster any one of Christian belief and is something to consider for those of other religions.
On Holy Thursday, March 28th, 2013 my family and I saw a full east to west very vivid rainbow in the sky, set against dark clouds. As partially shown in the above photograph. I do not know about you, but I have never personally seen such full rainbow other than in photographs. Before dawn the following morning (Good Friday) I awoke to the calling of my name by a male voice. Everyone was asleep, but I knew I actual heard a voice in my ear. I lay there for a few moments wondering. Then I replied; "Here I am, Lord." With that came this thought (not a voice as before); "Pray for the Hope of Nations."
The next day as I was pondering the experience I began to think about what occurred concerning the Kabbalah and Gematria some 14 years earlier. The next day on the Feast of the Resurrection (called Easter) I decided to apply simple Gematria to an idea that I thought was true. That God's Plan for Man is Divine Mercy which is the Hope of Nations. So, I added up the respected sums. And WOW!
However, there was one more! For I always believed Jesus's Mother had a important part in God's Plan.
Although the experience was personal as you can see the math is universal, which makes it something I felt I should share. For me, the sums go beyond dumb luck coincidence but are providential. Perhaps, others will agree and trust.
This country is a special place for it is here where God's Plan For Man exists and Divine Mercy revealed. I encourage you to seriously consider this a message to Trust in Jesus. And except the invitation to read the e- book by visiting:
Its basis is scriptural as a present day reality, but it is deep and can be quite a challenging read. Yet, a new foundation of Truth is being established by each person who tests and grasps the words contained within it.
Jesus said,"Wherever two or three gather in my Name there I am in their midst." This book can be the beginning of a New Spiritual Church for you that has no walls. It can be the beginning of a new revelation of God through the Bible in your life. I look forward to hearing about your experiences and discoveries in God's Plan For you.

One example that was given was first encoding the English alphabet with the numerals 1 to 26 from A to Z. Then applying the code to the words; "God is Love" as found John's letter (1 John 4:16).
GOD + IS = 54 LOVE = 54
26 + 28
A quantity that shows the existence of God is evidenced by Love.
Another that was given:
HOLY + TRINITY = 175 FATHER + SON + GHOST = 175

THE + HOPE + OF + NATIONS = 190 THE + UNITED + STATES = 190
That's not all!
GOD'S + PLAN + FOR + MAN = 155 IS + DIVINE + MERCY= 155
However, there was one more! For I always believed Jesus's Mother had a important part in God's Plan.
MARY + IMMACULATE = 155
And even later
Christianity = 155 = God's Plan For Man
And even later
