·        39 stripes in 2 Cor. 11:24 (cf. Deut. 25:3)

·        The curse of the law in Gal. 3:13 and Acts 13:39 (3x13).  The last word in the Old Testament (sometimes called the Law of God) is “curse” and there are exactly 39 Books in the Old Testament Canon.

·        666 in Ezra 2:13 and 2 Chr. 9:13 and Rev. Ch. 13

·        “dragon(s)” in Is. 34:13; Neh. 2:13; Ps. 74:13, 91:13; Rev. 12:13, 16:13 and thirteen times in the Book of Revelation. ¶ Another alias for the devil is "leviathan" (Job 41:1)—so "leviathan" shows up in Psalms 104:26 (½ of 26 is 13).

·        13 words in Rev. 17:5 and 65 block letters (5x13)

·        13 letters in “Roman Catholic” ¶ 13 letters in "prophet of Baal" & 13 letters in "Baalite priest" (see 1 Kings Chapter 18 & 2 Kings Chapter 10). ¶ There are exactly 13 obelisks in the city of Rome.  The obelisk is a pagan symbol from Egypt. (See "The Godfathers" by Chick Publications, page 26 and "Sabotage?" by Chick Publications, page 21.) No wonder the Vatican got her biblical manuscripts from Egypt—viz. the Alexandrian text type.

·        13 letters in “Judas Iscariot” ¶ At the Last Supper (which is recorded in the 13th Chapter of Saint John's Gospel) there were 13 men in the room, including one called "a devil" (John 6:70). To signify the Lord's betrayer, the Lord gave Judas a "SOP" in John 13:26 (13+13=26).  "SOP" is also an acronym for "Son Of Perdition" (see John 17:12).  Judas was also known as "the son of Simon" (John 6:71, 13:26): that phrase has 13 letters in it.  Judas is called "a devil" in John 6:70.  The Greek word used there in John 6:70 is 'diabolical'.  Isacriot actually means 'man of Kerioth', which is in Moab.  Read what the Prophet Jeremiah said about Kerioth in Jer. 48:24-25, 41...  "The HORN of Moab is cut off, and his arm broken, saith the LORD."  The "horn" in the Book of Daniel (Chapters 7 & 8) is the Antichrist.  Moreover, another type of the Antichrist, Pharaoh, also had his arm broken (see Ezek. 30:21, 22) ¶ The name "Iscariot" contains the word "riot" (see Second Peter Chapter 2 verse thirteen).

·        According to Catholic scholars, the codename for the Roman church which Peter supposedly headed up at “Babylon” is mentioned in 1 Peter 5:13. (This is despite the fact that Paul was in Rome in Acts 28, and Paul wrote the Epistle to the Romans, and Paul was the apostle to uncircumcised while Peter was the apostle to the circumcised. [see Gal. 2:7-8])  Paul saluted more than 20 saints in the last chapter of Romans and Peter’s name never shows up! ¶ Romans 13:13 (two thirteens) lists 6 horrible sins: "rioting", "drunkeness", "chambering", "wantonness", "strife", and "envying".

·        God’s name doesn’t appear in Gen. 1:13 (the first chapter in the Bible)

·        The “thirteen” in Gen. 14:4 is in the context of ‘rebellion’.  Thirteen stars in the Confederate flag.  “Don’t tread on me” has thirteen letters and is depicted with a serpent (see Gen. 3:1).  The “adder” is a Biblical name for a serpent or snake.  Psalm 91 says to “tread” on this ‘snake’.  “Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.” (Ps. 91:13) The devil omitted verse 13 when he quoted Psalm 91 to Jesus (see Matt. 4 & Luke 4).

·        “The enemy... the devil” pops up in Matt. 13:39

·        Nimrod was the thirteenth from Adam (the greatest type of the Antichrist and father of the mystery/antichrist Babylonian religions) [see Gen. 10; 1 Chr. 1] ¶ Nimrod's father was Cush. (Gen. 10:8)  Nimrod was under Ham's curse (Gen. 9:25). Cush means "black".  The name Nimrod means leopard or panther.  A black panther in the Middle East is called a leopard.  The Antichrist appears as a leopard in Revelation 13.  Ethiopia is the same word for Cush, Nimrod's father. "Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil." (Jeremiah 13:23) "Nimrod" (Mic. 5:6) is also mentioned in the context of another antichrist "the Assyrian" (Mic. 5:5, 6) in Micah Chapter 5 (see also Isaiah 10:5).

·        13 evils of the heart in Mark 7:21

·        “Satan” shows up in Mark 1:13 and Rev. 2:13

·        13 words in John 13:13 (minus one italicized word)

·        13 words in Genesis 13:13 (a repudiation of sodomites)

·        “the devil” is in Luke 4:13

·        The name of the false god “Dagon” is found in the Holy Bible 13 times. (Judges Ch. 16; 1 Samuel Ch. 5; 1 Chronicles Ch. 10)

·        The Old Testament has 39 Books (3x13) and ends with a “curse” (Mal. 4:6)

·        Apostle Paul was the 13th apostle and wrote 13 epistles (Romans–Philemon) and those are the Scriptures apostates and reprobates “wrest” according to 2 Pet. 3:15-16 and they reject his epistles in favor of a Jewish gospel (St. Matthew) to support ‘Peter’s chair’

·        On page 45 of ‘Bible Numerics’ Dr. Peter S. Ruckman said that 1 Corinthians 13 is “the foundation and ground root” of the NCCC.  I would add that is the foundation of Laodiceanism.  And that chapter has exactly 13 verses in it!

·        52 chapters (4x13) in the Book of Jeremiah where the house of the LORD is burnt in the last chapter and the Jews go into Babylonian captivity. Deck of cards has 52 cards. ¶ Jericho was an "accursed" city (Josh. 6:17).  And it was encompassed exactly 13 times (see Josh. 6:3-4, 14-15) before its walls fell!

·        Thirteen times “Maschil” is found in the titles in the Psalms (I’m not sure of the significance of that one)

·        “Infierno” is the Spanish word for “hell”.  It is found 13 times in the Reina-Valera 1960.

·        “Belial” in Judges 20:13

·        “evil men and seducers” (2 Timothy 3:13)

·        The “unwise son” (Hosea 13:13) ¶ In St. Luke 15:14, in the story of the Prodigal Son, we read about "a mighty famine" (13 letters).

·        “the evil day” (Eph. 6:13) and "the ways of darkness" (Prov. 2:13) and "the power of darkness" (Col. 1:13) [Which phrase is 18 letters]

·        The word “eighteen” (6+6+6=18) appears three times in St. Luke’s Gospel.  All three instances are in the 13th Chapter of Luke. (See Luke 13:4, 11, 16) ¶ In Matthew 13:38 the Lord uses the phrase: "The field is the world;"—it has 18 letters.  18 is associated with the world because the Holy Spirit called it an "evil world" in Galatians 1:4. ¶ 'In 1976, Apple co-founders Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs sold their first pre-assembled computer, called the Apple-1. It cost them $250 to build and retailed for $666.66.' www.cnbc.com ¶ Israel served Eglon king of Moab 18 years (Judges 3:14) and then later they were vexed and oppressed by the Philistines and the Ammonites another 18 years (Judges 10:7-8). ¶ The first mention of the "antichrist" in the Bible is in 1st John 2:18 (note the eighteen again.)

·        Absalom goes to his “PLACE” after his death in 2 Samuel 18:18. (Note: the two eighteens because 6+6+6=18.)  The pillar Absalom erected for himself still stands today in Israel and is called Absalom’s Tomb.  The name Absalom means ‘father of peace’.  That will be the Antichrist’s characteristic according to Daniel 8:25, 11:21, 24.  The Roman Catholic Pope is also called ‘Holy Father’ (cf. Matt. 23:9; John 17:11).  If Absalom is a great Old Testament antichrist; Judas Iscariot is a great New Testament antichrist.  Just like Absalom, he dies a gruesome death and then goes to his own “PLACE” (Acts 1:25).  The Lord called Judas “the son of perdition” in John 17:12.

·        The ‘law of first mention’ is in full effect with the number 13.  The first time the word “thirteen” appears in the Holy Bible: it is in the context of “rebellion” (see Gen. 14:4).  And then in the same chapter (Genesis Chapter 14) in VERSE 13 we read the word “confederate”.  Well, the Southern Confederate States rebelled against the Union; and on the Confederate flag are 13 stars on St. Andrews’s Cross.  Jesus Christ died on the Cross and was from the South (the southern tribe of Judah [see Heb. 7:14; Rev. 5:5]) and He is the central “Star” (Num. 24:17) surrounded by twelve apostles (see Dan. 12:3).  And the American South is known as the Protestant “Bible-belt”.   This phenomena occurs right after you learn that the greatest type of the Antichrist (Nimrod) is the 13th from Adam! (see Gen. 10:8) ¶ And in God’s eyes the most wicked sinners in the Bible are described in Genesis 13:13—which contains exactly 13 words! ¶ All of this was in print in the Authorized King James Version 250 years before the Civil War began! (Which was from April 12th, 1861 – April 9th, 1865 Anno Domini.) ¶ See also "rebelled" (2 Chr. 36:13), "rebel" (Job 24:13), "rebelled" (Ezek. 20:13). ¶ 'The first mention of the word "thirteen" itself is found in Genesis 17:25 - "And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin." The cross-reference here in Genesis 16:12, where the Holy Spirit employs racial profiling when foreseeing the lad's genetic posterity: "And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of his brethren."' ('Given By Inspiration' by Dr. William P. Grady, page 192.) ¶ 'While about 85% of the "thirteens" in Scripture refer to something bad, one can be a "rebel" for God.  In II Kings 18:7, we read of Hezekiah: "And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not." Paul was the ultimate rebel in the New Testament, being the thirteenth apostle, called in the thirteenth chapter of Acts, taking the leadership (from Barnabas) at the thirteenth verse, who goes on to write thirteen epistles, with I Corinthians 13:13 constituting the heart of his ministry.  There were thirteen colonies that rebelled against Great Britain to form the United States of America.  One of America's earliest flags had thirteen stripes, thirteen stars, and thirteen letters - "DON'T TREAD ON ME." In the closing days of Laodicean apostasy, the Church needs some rebels "with a cause" - especailly regarding the A.V. 1611. And after we are gone, a remnant of Tribulation saints will carry on the rebellion, being rallied by those thirteen words in the thirteenth verse of the thirteenth chapter of the book of Hebrews: "Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach."' ('Given By Inspiration' by Dr. William P. Grady, pages 192-193.)

·        In the Book of First Kings, King Jeroboam of the northern tribes of Israel got his kingdom off to the worst establishment possible by doing the following: "And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David: If this people go up to do sacrifice in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again unto their lord, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go again to Rehoboam king of Judah. Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he in Dan. And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before the one, even unto Dan." (1 Kings 12:26-30) [cf. Ex. 32:4]  The northern kingdom fell into apostasy and idolatry because of this and never recovered—and throughout the 1st and 2nd Kings we read over and over again about “the sins of Jeroboam”.  This phrase is found 13 times before their captivity—and then by the final and 14th instance they were in Assyrian captivity (2 Kings 17:22).

·        According to Revelation 13:18, the number 666 “is the number of a man”.  Well, the sixth Book in the New Testament is Romans.  R-O-M-A-N-S contains 6 letters and the word “MAN”.  In Romans 6:6 the sixth word is “man”.

·        In 2 Samuel 21:15-22 and 1 Chronicles 20:4-8 we read about David’s battles with Goliath’s brothers—who were giants.  They were the serpent’s seed from Gen. 3:15, 6:1-4. (See also Genesis 4:1; 1 John 3:12.)  One of these giants had 24 digits—“SIX on each hand, and SIX on each foot” (1 Chr. 20:6)—and we read about this in Verse SIX of 1 Chr. Ch. 20—so again three sixes in one passage of Scripture. ¶ After David and his men defeated these giants; in the very first verse of the next chapter “Satan” withstands King David and Israel.

·        The word “rebel” shows up in Joshua 1:18.  And again in Joshua 22:18.  Again, 6+6+6=18.  Lucifer was the first and greatest “rebel” there has ever been or will be: and his number is 666 according to Revelation 13:18. See "rebellious" (Deut. 21:18; Ps. 68:18) and "rebelled" (Lam. 1:18).The phrase describing what idolaters do is called in the Holy Bible "a whoring" or "a-whoring" (with a hyphen in some printings of the KJV).  That phrase is found in exactly 18 verses of scripture in the Authorized King James Version!!! 6+6+6=18  ¶ The word "rebel" is found 14 times in the KJV Bible—in exactly THIRTEEN verses.

·        Human government is discussed in Romans 13.  And then again in Revelation 13: where it ends up being completely demonic.

·        Any biblical scholar can tell you that the Epistle to the Hebrews is a great comparison of the first covenant to the second covenant.  In this comparison the Holy Spirit reveals the new covenant is “better” than the old covenant.  The term “better” could sum up the whole Epistle; and it is found 13 times in this New Testament Book (which has 13 Chapters).

·        The title of Apostle Paul’s Epistle to the “ROMANS” contains 6 letters.  Including the word “MAN” (cf. “MAN OF SIN” 2 Thess. 2:3).  And “Rome” (Rom. 1:7) is the ‘seat of the papacy’—“…where Satan’s seat is…” (Rev. 2:13).  But back to Romans: in Chapter SIX verse SIX the SIXTH word is “MAN”!

·        In Daniel Chapter 3, king Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon is a type of the Antichrist.  In this chapter the king commanded his subjects to worship his image (cf. Rev. 13:14-15); which happens to be 60 by 6.  In this same chapter: SIX musical instruments are listed three times in Daniel 3:5, 10, 15.  Those instruments are the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer.

·        The temptation that caused the fall of mankind had THREE aspects to it (cf. 1 John 2:16); and it is recorded in the Bible in Genesis chapter THREE verse SIX.
