"1 Peter 1:23 “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible…” yields 929 Old Testament chapters, their 23,145 verses and 1776 (2 x 888)"

There are three verses in the King James version of the New Testament with the words ‘born again’:

 

John 3:3 “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

 

John 3:7 “Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.”

 

1 Peter 1:23 “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.”

 

There are 5 x 855 inclusive verses from John 3:3 to 1 Peter 1:23. 855 is the sum of the ASCII codes for ‘JESUS CHRIST’.

 

1 Peter 1:23 is the 7253rd verse of the New Testament. 7253 is the 929th prime number. There are 929 chapters in the Old Testament.

 

1 Peter 1:23 is the 30,398 verse in the Bible. The prime factoring of 30,398 is: 2 x 15,199. 15,199 is the 1776th prime number. The United States was born in 1776. 1776 equals 2 x 888 (the Greek gematria of ‘JESUS’).

 

The gematria of John 3:7 is 3561. The prime factoring of 3561 is: 3 x 1187. The sum of the 2 consecutive prime numbers 1181 and 1187 is 2368. 2368 is the Greek gematria of ‘JESUS CHRIST’.

 

The gematria of 1 Peter 1:23 is 8890. When 8890 is the circumference of a circle then the sum of the perimeters of the triangle, square and golden rectangle within it equals the 23,145 verses in the Old Testament. 8890 equals: 10 x 888 plus 10.

 

The following information for the number 10 is taken from: https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/10.html

In the Bible, the number 10 is used 242 times. The designation "10th" is used 79 times. Ten is also viewed as a complete and perfect number, as is 3, 7 and 12. It is made up of 4, the number of the physical creation, and 6, the number of man. As such, 10 signifies testimony, law, responsibility and the completeness of order.

In Genesis 1 we find the phrase "God said" 10 times, which is a testimony of His creative power. God gave the 10 Commandments to man. Ten therefore represents man's responsibility to keep the commandments. A tithe is a 10th of our earnings and is a testimony of our faith in the Lord.

The Passover lamb was selected on day 10 of the 1st month (Exodus 12:3), as was Jesus, the Lamb that takes away the sins of the world (John 12:28 - 29; 1Corinthians 5:7). Day 10 of the 7th month is also the Holy Day known as the Day of Atonement. This unique day of fasting pictures the removal of Satan, the author of sin, before the Millennial reign of Jesus begins (Revelation 20:1 - 2).

**********************

Clay Cantrell pointed out to me that in the New American Standard translation there is a fourth verse in the New Testament with the words ‘born again’. 1 Peter 1:3 “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,”. The prime factoring of its gematria is: 10 x 1723.

Some additional anomalies:

 

Again, 1 Peter 1:23 is the 7253rd verse in the New Testament. 7253 is the 929th prime number. The first Thanksgiving occurred on 26 November 1621. From 26 November 1621 to 26 November 2016 was 395 years. 395 is the gematria of ‘heaven’ in Genesis 1:1. 26 November 2016 was 7253 days since the Oslo Accords were signed on 17 January 1997. 26 November 2016 was 25,200 days (70 prophetic years) since the U.N. voted for the partition of Israel on 29 November 1947. The 8890 gematria of 1 Peter 1:23 equals: 70 x 127. From 26 November 2016 to this coming Thanksgiving on 26 November 2020 will be exactly four years. Denis Hart pointed out to me that this 26 November 2020 will be the 400th celebration since the first Thanksgiving occurred on 26 November 1621. There are 400 years in one Gregorian calendar cycle and the Ottoman Turks had control of Jerusalem for 400 years from 1517 to1917.

 

29 September 2018 (9.29) was 7253 days since the Space Station was placed into orbit. 29 September 2018 was 1187 days since the C140 crash that killed 113 people on 30 June 2015. 29 September 2018 was 2153 days since Obama was elected for a second term on 6 November 2012. 2153 is the sum of the ASCII codes for ‘John Fitzgerald Kennedy’.

 

9 November 2020 (9.11) was 7253 days since 1 January 2001 (01.01.01). 21 July 2021 will be 7253 days since 9.11.2001 (September 11th). The prime factoring of 2021 is the product of the 2 consecutive prime numbers: 43 x 47. The prime factoring of 2021 plus 5781 is: 2 x 47 x 83.
