Isaiah 42....

>>Was it another coincidence that Isaiah ties between the messenger connected with Ke'dar and a new song (a scripture in a new language) to be sang unto the Lord (Isaiah 42:10-11). More explicitly, prophesies Isaiah "For with stammering lips, and another tongue, will he speak to this people" (Isaiah 28:11). This latter verse correctly describes the "stammering lips" of Prophet Muhammad reflecting the state of tension and concentration he went through at the time of revelation. Another related point is that the Qur'an was revealed in piece-meals over a span of twenty three years. It is interesting to compare this with Isaiah 28:10 whichspeaks of the same thing.>>

Isaiah 42....

King James Version of the Bible

42:1

Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.

42:2

He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

42:3

A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.

42:4

He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.

42:5

Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

42:6

I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

42:7

To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

42:8

I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

42:9

Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.

42:10

Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.

42:11

Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.

42:12

Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.

42:13

The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.

42:14

I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.

42:15

I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.

42:16

And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

42:17

They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.

42:18

Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.

42:19

Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD's servant?

42:20

Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.

42:21

The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable.

42:22

But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

42:23

Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come?

42:24

Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.

42:25

Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.

===============

We attended a "stations by the cross" ceremony at St. Joseph's yesterday evening. Soup, bread and coffee with families, kids, priests and nuns before. And then the 14 stations. I must say that I felt somewhat uncomfortable with all the genuflecting and the heavy air of ritual and doctrine. I was holding our son, Andrew, half the time and even our oldest son, Frederick, wanted to sit in my lap. Compared to all the other folks getting up and then kneeling down before the next station, we must have look like "nonbelievers." And, you know what, that's fine!! I'm not Catholic. We attend because I respect my wife's upbringing, etc. And she'll be the first to admit what a wild and crazy ride of guilt trips this "Catholic upbringing" brought upon her, her brothers, sisters and friends, etc.

But this is what we are all being called "out and away" from. All the guilt, all the claim and all the resulting blame and shame. And there comes a time when the energy and truth behind this "calling" becomes manifested into our world.

So as I was sitting there I was called to open up the Bible to Isaiah Chapter 42. I didn't specifically know what was in Chapter 42 for I don't claim to be a "student of the Bible". But there is was and here we are.

ISAIAH (911918) + 42 = 911960

911960 = 3257 Prime (x280)

The end of the 220th cycle of the Isaiah 42 Prime of 3257 fell exactly on 19560605 as follows...

717150 - number of days from the birth of our Lord on August 11 in 6 BC to my birth 19580205 - divided by 3257 prime = 220 + 610 days. This means that 610 days prior to my birth was the end of the 220nd cycle of Isaiah 42 prime days since the birth of our Lord. And 610 = 61 Prime (x10)
and there happen to be exactly 61 prime days between my birth and the crucifixion day of our Lord which was April 7th in 30 AD. 61 prime days also are between Princess Diana's birth, July 1, and passing, August 31, and between the beginning of the Chicago Fire which was 1 day before John Lennon's birth, October 9th, and his passing on December 8th.

So the beginning of the 221st Isaiah 42 prime cycle was 19560605 - which is the "56" NO year conjoined with a mo/day combination that reads "65" which equates to ON.

Now let's just go one (1) cycle to the famous 222 number/cycle....

Note: 222 is the exact number of days between the 1st day of every year and the Lord's birth, August 11, and it's also our 1st President's mo/day birthday, February 22. And 222 days from February 22nd is my crucifixion day, October 2nd which corresponds with 19931002 which is exactly 13,023 days - the number of days that our Lord lived here on this earth - from my birth on 19580205.

19560605 - the beginning of the 221st Isaiah 42 prime cycle of 3257 days - + 3257 = 19650506 - brings us to a complete role reversal from '56 (NO) to '65 (ON) for the year, and from 6/5 (ON) to 5/6 (NO) for the mo/day.

And on the 223rd Prime cycles of the Isaiah 42 Prime 3257 we actually come right to the threshold of truth for we are right at the day of The Last Supper in the year 1974 - ie. April 6, 1974 - which was the 61st day into my 17th "New Beginning" year. And the cycle number 223 is also prime for it is in synch with the number of days between the first day of year in Leap years and the Divine Birth, August 11th.

And the 224th cycle brings us to 19830307 which was exactly 19th prime years to the day when Maribeth and I visited Caritas of Birmingham which is where the apparition of the Virgin Mary has appeared along with other incredible things. We first visited there at 11 pm at night under a beautiful star-lit sky. This was just last year.

And the 225th cycle of the Isaiah 42 prime brings us to my 34th - Water Payton's number - birthday 19920205. And the 226th Isaiah prime brings us to 20010105. Note we are now moving through the 226th year since the Declaration of Independence since celebrating the 225th Anniversary last July 4th. And we are now 428 days from 20010105 which mirrors 4/28 which is the date of the end of the Fourth Age which was the Old Christian Era in the spiritual heavens on 19790428.

I turned 42 in the year 2000 which was when the Age of Aquarius began on March 21st which was also the 157th prime Bahai New Year.

We are all being called by what's written in Isaiah 42 right now. Over the past two (2) days there's been unusually high winds mixed with intermittent rain. And two evenings ago this all kicked off with a 10-15 minute of some spectacular rolling thunder here in Evanston.

The Lord uses any and all means to communicate with us - through nature, through our inner voice, through others.

Isaiah 42 is what is I felt compelled to receive and share on this thread. And I'm making no claims from any kind of controlling position of authority. For I'll let the numbers and words and nature and thunder speak for themselves.

This post number is 11580. 11580 days into my calender is 19891020 which is The Bab's 170th - ie. 17 "New Beginning " prime (x10) birthday since 1819. The Bab was the forrunner of Baha'ulla of the Bahia's. Light the scene of the Bahai Temple looking northwest from "the clearing point" on Northwestern's lakefull, October 20th has been a date that keeps clearing-crossing before me. Just one example: we have a little decorative white chair in our son's bedroom with an imprint of his blue hands dates 10-20-96 shortly after my father passed on 9/3 which was 23 "I AM" days from August 11, the Divine Birth.

ONE (1) last thing I was called to note: this is my 3000th post on SI.

Our ONE Lord God In Heaven Is Perfect Always!
Peace, Light, ONE-LOVE, GO!!

Frederick,

The rebuttal.....

geocities.com (you need Adobe Acrobat to read this... adobe.com

If you need more evidence to refute your post, please let me know and I will be happy to provide more.

Remember something, people have been trying really hard to get there version to fit into the Christian version. And when people try hard enough, as they have, they have come up with a way to do so. But all you have to do is read the Bible by yourself, without anyone elses preconceived notions, with an open heart and mind, and you will find out the truth about Islam and Muhammad. I guarantee it!

And ask God yourself about it...if you seek the answers honestly, he will give them to you.....

God Bless,
IGIT

PS - Just hopped over to "Islam, The Message" and found this information over there as well. Being Amein has banned me from posting on his thread (very much like radical Muslim behavior), can someone move my post over there, just in case people are not reading this thread and would like to see the other sides opinion to Freddy's post, like we are accustomed to in an open society in the great USA? Thanks!
