Temple At The Center Of Time: Newton's Bible Codex Finally Deciphered and the Year 2012 [Paperback]

David Flynn (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 8, 2008

A belief that the ancients held unusual scientific knowledge, of which only fragments remain today, was held by many great philosophers and scientists who participated in the "scientific revolution". Though research by these men led to great discovery, many were convinced that they were merely scratching the surface of an immense but lost pristine knowledge (prisca sapientia) somehow reflected in the architecture and remains of ancient civilizations.

In "Temple at the Center of Time: Investigations of Sacred Dimension, Revealed in Prophecy, the Temple of Jerusalem, and the Ark of the Covenant, from the works of Isaac Newton", David Flynn uncovers what is sure to be heralded as one of the greatest discoveries of all time.

Many books have investigated whether Newton believed that an original pure knowledge existed. Some conclude that he did in fact search for it, but that is the whole of their investigation. A few have written that Newton actually discovered ‘something’ and try to fit his existing research into a prisca sapientia of their own design, claiming his beliefs fit modern realms of philosophy or eastern religions, but these speculations are not upheld by the body of his work. Although Newton had solved riddles of space, time, gravity, light and invented mathematics to predict the motion of objects, this was not the ‘priscia sapienta’. Since the time of Newton, no one has revealed the true form and nature of the original knowledge, or from whence it came… until now.

For the first time in history, "Temple at the Center of Time" uncovers what Newton was looking for and, in so doing, proves that pivotal events in history are unquestionably connected in time and space to Jerusalem.

Newton didn't know it. The key was right in front of him.

4.0 out of 5 stars Flynn's book is light on 2012, heavy on Biblical & Secular history, September 29, 2008

This review is from: Temple At The Center Of Time: Newton's Bible Codex Finally Deciphered and the Year 2012 (Paperback)

As a sincere follower and believer in Jesus Christ, Flynn does a good job issuing a prophetic "watch" notice, blending Biblical and secular accounts of historical facts with 'new' data. Most of this 'new' data is centered around linking distances from Jerusalem's Temple Mount to key historical dates which seem to defy mere coincidence. (Of course, most Hebrew Rabbis will tell you coincidence is not a Kosher word!)

While some of the logic and calculations may seem contrived, Flynn does a good job using new technology (specifically NASA's World Wind program) in calculating distances to key locations in London, Washington, Babylon, Mecca, Egypt and other nations who possess unique historical relationships with Jerusalem's ancient Jewish Temples. Many of these "distances that match key dates and symbols" range from 1,948 nautical miles from the center of London to the corner stone of Solomon's Temple. This matches up to 1948AD, when the British Empire established the Modern Nation of Israel. Flynn also shows there are 666 nautical miles between Mecca, Saudi Arabia and the Temple corner stone.

Flynn does a good job linking these calculations back to Biblical prophecies of Daniel, with some unique insights not published before. For example, Flynn calls out the unique properties of numbers such as 2,520 (equivalent to the number of days in Daniel's "week of years" as well as the gematria of Babylon's King Nebuchaadnezzar's `writing on the wall' interpreted by Daniel), 1,260 (half of 2,520) the constant pi and other numbers with their roots in the ancient Jewish Temples' architecture. He also makes some other very unique, interesting observations between the geo-positioning of ancient sites and their relation to the Temple. Flynn does NOT put forth this type of distance / date observation as a new "bible code" but rather explores Isaac Newton's Bible research as it relates to ancient prophecy and world events.

Other calculations are not as straight forward, such as the year 2012 calculated through a series of conversions between Lunar (Hebrew) and Solar (Gregorian) calendars, multiplication against Pi and offset by the dedication year of Solomon's Temple. These calculations are all contained within less than 6 pages of the Epilogue out of 296 total pages which doesn't warrant it as a sub-title for the entire book.

Beyond the time / distance parallel calculations, Flynn does an interesting job linking post-renaissance "illuminated" world leaders' beliefs from the Jewish Temple's vantage point. Facts are well cited in each respective chapter's end notes, such as the origin of the word "church", "ark" and "tau" in how they are inter-related to the "primal knowledge" or "priscia sapientia" avidly pursued by many renaissance scholars. Flynn makes subtle reference to the growing tension around 2012 as the end of the Mayan calendar and the potential for that time being a star gate through which the 'watchers' (implicit in Genesis 6, Matthew 24 and Jude) return to earth. Under no circumstances does Flynn pick any second advent, rapture or other prophetic dates but merely puts the reader on 'watch notice' similar to a meteorological tornado watch.

Bottom line: read the book. Flynn's ambassadorship for the King of kings is well reflected in this thoughtful piece of work.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hidden knowledge easily testable., October 21, 2008

This review is from: Temple At The Center Of Time: Newton's Bible Codex Finally Deciphered and the Year 2012 (Paperback)

I can't say that I accept all the connections and propositions put forward. However many are easily checked. All you need is Google Earth / calculator / Wikipedia to verify the claims. They will shake you no matter what your belief system is.

The connections between the bible, prophesy and universal dimensions cannot be coincidental. It is fair to say that the book reveals knowledge encoded in the bible that was surely un-knowable at the time that it was written.

"The calculations in this book are astonishing and simply put, cannot be a coincidence! Temple at the Center of Time picks up where Isaac Newton left off, mixes modern technology and the end result is absolutely astonishing!"
