The Number of the Beast: Why Gematria Imitates the Voice of God

Cause Before Symptom - With Your Host James Carner

The message begins by defining gematria and explaining its historical context, particularly its use in Kabbalistic traditions and modern occult systems. From there, it builds a case that numbers in scripture were never meant to function as hackable blueprints, but as symbols pointing toward divine order—not divine access. The number of the beast (666) is not mystical—it is material. It is the signature of flesh, carbon, and fallen nature. Man was made in God’s image, but Satan has reduced man to digits.

This scroll further explores how Satan, as a cosmic programmer, has hijacked language, number, and sequence in an attempt to rewrite creation. He offers gematria as a spiritual “thumb drive” for non-programmers—a form of unauthorized magic disguised as revelation. But while the curious may feel empowered by decoding numbers, they are unknowingly violating the terms of divine reality—trading prayer for programming, breath for binary.

God never designed hidden codes to be broken. His will is revealed, not encrypted. Both the King James Bible and the Ethiopian Canon confirm this—emphasizing prophecy, repentance, and relationship rather than numerology or sorcery. Prayer in the secret place, not numerical conjuring, is the true interface with heaven.

This scroll concludes with a warning: the further one walks into gematria, the more one replaces faith with formula. And those formulas summon something real—spirits that respond not to love, but to sequence. This is the final proof: angels who lack breath must be summoned like machines. And only Christ, the Word made flesh, can restore the firewall that separates holy from profane.
