About this episode
David Elliott discusses the hidden mathematical patterns in the Christmas accounts, focusing on the significance of the number four.
What Christmas has become and the startling hidden pattern most believers never noticed, until now. In this episode of People of Distinction, PhD scientist and Bible teacher David Elliott reveals how the number four is woven with mathematical precision throughout the Christmas accounts, pointing unmistakably to Emmanuel's arrival on Earth and why uncovering it may be the most refreshing thing you do this holiday season. His book Four: The Number of Emmanuel, Christmas by the Numbers is available now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, alongside his other title Air, Earth, Fire and Water. If you're done with the noise of Christmas and ready for something real, this conversation is your starting point.
