Fingerprint (Compact Edition): The Beauty of Numbers in Scripture and Creation

The fingerprints of God’s design are apparent throughout the Bible and across the universe, with extraordinary correlations at every level. The book takes readers on a journey through the fascinating world of patterns in scripture and how they can impact the way that we live. It will inspire awe, wonder, and a fresh sense of the beauty and majesty of God's creation, and the amazing ordering of his Word to us.
Just as intricate mathematical structures seem to be hard-wired into the design of the entire created order, from the tiniest atom to the largest galaxy, they also appearing in scripture in highly significant ways. For a book that has been apparently ‘randomly’ put together by forty different authors, working in different cultures at different periods of history, the Bible exhibits extraordinarily high levels of organisation. Indeed, God’s word contains the DNA of the Trinity embedded within it at every level.
If everything in the Bible suggests that God is passionate about design, numbers and proportions, then we should be as well. The author of the laws of mathematics and physics is the same God who has designed all of us to live in a personal relationship with him. The same hand that constructed the universe intricately like a vast wristwatch, and wove such complex layers of detail and patterning into the Bible, is the very one who desires to perfect his image within us. Exploring the rich tapestry of patterns in scripture gives us not only a fuller appreciation of our wonderfully meticulous Creator, but also affords an opportunity to bring deeper levels of his order and balance into our own lives.
This beautifully presented book should appeal especially to Christians interested in science, mathematics or design, and those interested in deepening their understanding of scripture. It is also designed to be accessible and attractive to thoughtful enquirers into the Christian faith. It would make an ideal gift for baptism or confirmation and will be a treasured possession for anyone for years to come. It is available in hardcover, paperback and pocket size editions.
