FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

University Professors, Gary Flanigan and Luther G. Williams, Say Numbers Prove Bible's Divine Authorship, through their book, 111: The Media War Between Jesus Christ and Satan


111Atl., July 1, 2008 - In their new book, 111: The Media War Between Jesus Christ and Satan, university professors, Gary Flanigan and Luther G. Williams, argue that the Bible’s pervasive use of numbers provides conclusive evidence of God’s fingerprint. 

“'I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end' is one of the most well known quotes in the book of Revelation,” maintains co-author Gary Flanigan. “Since the book of Revelation was originally written in Greek and Greek is an alphanumeric language meaning alpha is the same as one, and omega is the same as 800, isn’t it also the Revelation of Jesus that He’s a 1-800 number?”

The authors go even further by pointing to the number 46 which figured prominently in the court trial and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.  When Jesus said, “Destroy this temple and in three days I’ll raise it up,” the 46 years it physically took to construct the Jerusalem Temple is also the same number of chromosomes (46) genetically required to physically construct the human body.  Maintaining that first century understanding of human DNA structuring was beyond the scope of mere human intelligence, Flanigan and Williams force a biblical view of either sheer coincidence, or an acknowledgment of divine design in terms of the Bible’s origin.

Satan’s predominating spiritual influence on the electronic media, however, is the book’s main focus. “The media is the method in the madness," is 111’s recurring theme. According to Flanigan and Williams, a typical child by the age of 12 has witnessed more than 100,000 television and film murders, assaults, thefts, adulteries, and abusive relationships making every viewer of vice, as so-called entertainment, an unwitting participant in their own spiritual oppression and bondage.  Based on that premise, the book makes a persuasive case that Satan is not referred to as the “prince of the power of the air” in a vacuum. According to the two HBCU professors, the fact that one of the temptations of Christ found Jesus being shown all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time suggests a wireless television or internet/webcast technology.

“By use of a TV remote control or PC notebook touch pad, we are also able to see all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.  What we don’t see is a twenty-first century technology in that first century statement,” says Gary Flanigan.

Dr. Flanigan furthers, “We forget neither God nor Satan is constrained by time and technology.  When the devil told Jesus, ‘all this power is given unto me,’ the power being referred to was and continues to be the devil’s power to manipulate the air waves through which television, radio, and other wireless signals transmit the fruits of a satanic spirit.”  

The authors hold this is why the Bible admonishes not to marvel if Satan is transformed into an “angel of light.” Television, radio, and wireless technologies are all dynamic functions of light wave transformations.  And, borrowing from a popular TV show, if we are indeed as smart as a fifth grader, we remember from elementary school that those TV light wave transformations are simply called proton and electron conversions.

From Hollywood and TV news, to cloning, stem cell research, and UFO phenomena, 111 is decisive in approach that the electronic media is the devil's primetime weapon of mass destruction.  Using incisive writing laced with poignant detail, 111: The Media War Between Jesus Christ and Satan is both educational and conversational as contemporary allusions and laymen's terms are offered to help readers grasp the Holy Bible not as old or new, but as a Current Testament.
