E.T. outside of time, beyond calculation

When Jesus said, “It is written that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God,” the expression ‘it is written’ is in the perfect tense; a tense that means it’s accomplished in the past but the results continue on into the present.

“He’s saying, ‘It stands written right this minute; what God wrote down in the past continues to exist into the very present!’ ” explains Jordan.

Irrefutable proof the Bible is the Word of God is it has embedded in it an integrated message system demonstrating itself to have been supernaturally produced and engineered.

“When you begin to study it from the beginning all the way to the end, you see this supernatural system of communication. The person who wrote Genesis knew information that was impossible to know until the Apostle Paul came on the scene in 35 A.D.

“You say, ‘Well, wait a minute, how did this writer back here in Genesis 4,000 years earlier know about it and know how to encode it into the text of Genesis so that you couldn’t know it was there until it happened over here?!’

“And once you see it happen over here, then you can look back and say, ‘Hey, there it is back there!’ What that demonstrates is that whoever wrote the Bible was not bound by time.

“The Bible contains 66 books written by more than 40 authors over a period of at least 3,000 years and yet it’s like one person wrote all of it.

“Starting with the earliest accounts in Genesis, there are remarkable correlations with the New Testament’s unveiling of Jesus Christ as Messiah and Savior. 

“Adam was given the original ‘coat of many colors’ because the clothing he had matched the clothing the Lord Jesus Christ wore when He came and walked with Adam in ‘the cool of the day’ every morning.

“When the angels and creation would look at Adam and look at Christ, they would know they’re clothed the same way. Adam was the image of God. He was God’s representative in the earth. He had a uniform and everybody knew He was God’s man, but when he and Eve sinned, the uniform went away, so He makes His own covering.

"The fig leaves they had for britches dried up so God went and got them the skin of an animal. How did He get that? There’s not but one way. He had to shed some innocent blood to take the animal skin and clothe Adam and Eve.

“Who would have thunk that’s what it was going to take to have you clothed in the righteousness of God—the shedding of innocent blood?! Nobody! In fact, that’s information you don’t know until thousands of years later after the events in the Garden of Eden and the writing of the Book of Genesis.

“How is it that the writer of Genesis and the actor in Genesis knew something—knew to do the narrative in a certain way that would reflect something that couldn’t be known for at least 4,000 years?!

“You see the impossibility of that?! Whoever wrote Genesis, and whoever set up the scenario back here of dealing with this, was not somebody who was bound by time.

“We say they were extraterrestrial, or outside of time. When I say E.T., I’m not talking about the little creature with the funny-looking little finger; I’m talking about the real one!”

From Genesis 7:11, we know that it was “in the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.”

Marking the end of the Flood, Genesis 8:4 reads, “And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.”

Jordan explains, “For five months, the ark, which is a picture of Christ, is bobbing around and it rested on the 17^th day of that fifth month. The No. 5 in the Bible is the number of death, but 17—it’s the 17^th day when they begin to emerge from the ark out of death.

“We know that the Lord Jesus Christ, when He died on the Cross, died on the Passover, the 14^th day of the month. That evening He’s in the ground. He’s resurrected on the 17^th day.

“I read that about Noah’s ark and I think, ‘I wonder if the writer realized the date of the resurrection of Christ when he wrote that?’ Well, no Moses didn’t, but then yes, God did! You see, somebody orchestrated the thing so that the water went down and the ark rested on the dry ground on the 17^th day.

“It’s just going to happen to be that 2, 380 years later (Bible chronologist James Ussher’s got the Flood dated at 2,350 B.C.), Christ’s going to come out of the grave on the same day! You say, ‘That’s a coincidence,’ but the mathematical probability of that happening is beyond calculation.”
