Ivan Panin begins his book with nine Canons by which to approach Chronology. They are brilliantly put together, and if followed, not only reduce disagreement among scholars to a virtual non-issue, but provide an approach to Scripture that honors it for what it is. His second section is a List of every knowable date in the Bible. This is an invaluable reference guide and is the core of the results of his years of research. The third section is a guided tour through the undergirding of the numerics woven throughout the Chronology. While he could have written volumes on the subject, he limits himself to clear examples that have specific impact. It is a pleasure, as well as wonderfully instructional, to read someone who does not hesitate to tackle the toughest of "contradictions," and who can take problems that have puzzled scholars for years and demonstrate Scripture's perfect harmony
The Numeric New Testament was originally transcribed by Ivan Panin. He believed he found a mathematical pattern in the Greek texts of the bible that would indicate the documents that were most authentic and correct. Mr. Panin devoted much of his life to proving the inspired Word contained certain watermarks by God to preserve its truth. The Greek texts that contained this pattern were the ones he chose to be most reliable. These Greek texts were then translated into English. Ivan Panin used a literal word for word type translation for this work. When word for word Greek was too fragmented to read, Mr. Panin added additional words to give the sentence structure; marking those words in italics. The literal translating of words gives a new richness and depth into God's word. With scripture renderings like: "And the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us," (Jn 1:14); "and whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of the geenna of fire." (Mt. 5:22); Amen I say to unto you that this race shall not pass away, till all be accomplished. (Lk. 21:32). Reading the Word from this translation will give new perspective of Scripture and is certainly worth adding to any collection of quality bible translations currently available. This edition has been reformatted with easy navigation in mind.
As watermark identifies the genuineness of paper, so there are mathematical patterns beneath the surface of the original text of the Bible so complex that they can only be accounted for by Divine Provicence.

Bible & Treaty: Missionaries among the Māori is a complex and colourful adventure of faith, bravery, perseverance and betrayal that seeks to recover lost connections in the story of modern New Zealand. It brings a fresh perspective to the missionary story, from the lead-up to Samuel Marsden's first sermon on New Zealand soil, and the intervening struggle for survival and understanding, to the dramatic events that unfolded around the Treaty of Waitangi and the disillusionment that led to the Land Wars in the 1860s. While some missionaries clearly failed to live up to their high calling, the majority committed their lives to Māori and were instrumental in spreading Christianity, brokering peace between warring tribes, and promoting literacy – resulting in a Māori-language edition of the Bible. This highly readable account, from the author of Ratana Revisited: An Unfinished Legacy (2006) and Ratana: The Prophet (2009), shines a new light on the ever-evolving business of New Zealand's early history.
In this book, the authors uncovered a startling interpretation of the Lord's Prayer via an ancient, but well-known and well-tested mathematical method used by the Jews to study and interpret the Torah (the five books of Moses) and the Tanakh (the Jewish Bible). It is called gematria, which is a system of assigning a numerical value to each letter in an alphabet. The Jews and Greeks have their own gematriot or gematrias (plural of gematria) with well-accepted standard values. Using gematria within a mathematical framework based on the Scripture, the authors discovered the following 12 attributes of the Lord's Prayer: [1] When we pray the Lord's Prayer, the grace and peace we receive from the Father is multiplied or increased by the power of the Holy Spirit.[2] When we pray the Lord's Prayer, we acknowledge the sovereignty of the Father.[3] When we pray the Lord's Prayer, we proclaim our faith in the fulfillment of the will of His Father in His Son, Jesus Christ.[4] The Lord's Prayer is the foremost proclamation of faith in the fulfillment of the will of His Father in His Son, Jesus Christ.[5] When we pray the Lord's Prayer, we acknowledge the Father and His love for us.[6] When we pray the Lord's Prayer, we are led by the Holy Spirit to become more like Jesus Christ.[7] When we pray the Lord's Prayer, we acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the judge of humanity. [8] It is the will of the Father that we should pray the Lord's Prayer at the times acceptable to Him.[9] The Lord's Prayer is to be prayed daily at the prescribed times, namely, {10.35am,10.53am,1.35pm,1.53pm,3.15pm, 3.51pm, 5.13pm, 5.31pm}.[10] The Lord's Prayer, prayed daily at the prescribed times, presents our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God.[11] At the prescribed times, we can accompany the Lord's Prayer with our own personal prayers of thanksgiving and requests. [12] The Lord's Prayer is the covenant of the Redeemer of Isaiah 59, Jesus Christ. They concluded by showing that the Cross of Jesus Christ is the sign of the covenant of the Redeemer of Isaiah 59.
