Breaking the Romans Code
Many people are unaware that the cornerstone of modern Christian theology rests on one single biblical book - the biblical book of Romans. InThe Jesus SecretI applied cryptanalysis to empirically document Jesus' lost original teaching - the very teaching that launched the Christian faith in the first place. However, I quickly found that all the research and testable discoveries were summarily dismissed with the same comment, "What about Romans?" The reigning perspective on this one Biblical book caused all other research, no matter how objective and empirical, to be rejected out of hand.Fortunately, the research forThe Jesus Secretgave me the perfect launching pad to answer the question: What about Romans? A correct understanding of Paul's letter to the Romans hinges on correct identification of the scope of the "Works of the Law" mentioned in his letter. In one of the chapters ofThe Jesus SecretI deduced the scope of the "Works of the Law." So, armed with this deduction based on the Koine papyri I sought to find out if I could empirically document the precise constitution of the Works of the Law. For I knew this would be the only way to fully answer: What about Romans?I studied the Dead Sea Scroll from cave four entitled "Some Works of the Law." I read different translations of it dozens of times each. I ate, drank, and slept the scroll until one day the Eureka moment finally hit me - I have to apply the contents of this scroll to first century Pharisaic Law. It wasn't long before I realized that the phrase Works of the Law meant something very specific to the leading first century religious authorities of Jesus' day (the Pharisees). And the documentable Pharisaic use of this phrase perfectly correlated with the scope I had deduced in The Jesus Secret. What was logical deduction is now demonstrable using the historic record.InThe Jesus SecretI had applied informational cryptanalysis to the Koine papyri discovered in Egypt - leading to the logical deduction of Jesus' most central teaching. InBreaking the Romans CodeI apply informational cryptanalysis to first century Jewish culture and Law - proving Jesus' most central teaching using the documented historical record. Breaking the Romans Codealso applies informational cryptanalysis to the entire book of Romans (from beginning to end). The resulting cryptanalysis empirically demonstrates that the original book of Romans was fully consistent with Jesus' lost teaching unveiled in both books.Breaking the Romans Codeobjectively answers: What about Romans? It documents that Paul repeated Jesus' lost teaching ... he didn't replace it.
