”the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath” - Probability Regardless of Past Results

Probability Regardless of Past Results

The probability to get the number one on a cast die is one-sixth or 1/6.

It does not change no matter what results we got in preceding trials.   However, the probability to get the number one in each of three trials made continually is 1/6 X 1/6 X 1/6 = 1/216.  It is less than 0.005 or 0.5%.　 Yet, the probability to get the number one on the cast die in the third trial is still 1/6, which is about 0.17 or 17%.

The probability of 0.5% is only meaningful when taking into account all the three trials, but 17% is meaningful when counting only one trial or the third trial alone.  And after the third trial, when counting preceding two trials together,  this 17% is found to be also the factor causing the rare event of three successive number ones, whose probability is 0.5%.

[X] [X] [1]...17%, or once in six trials
[1] [1] [1]...0.5%, or once in 216 trials

Likewise, the probability to get the number one in each of 99 trials with a die made continually is 1/6 X ... X 1/6 = 1/(6^99) = 1 X 10^(-77), which is almost zero in ordinary perception.

However, the probability in the 100th trial to get the number one on the cast die is one-sixth.

So, when people do not know the past 99 trials in each of which the number one was obtained, it does not look like a miracle that the number one has appeared in the 100th trial.

The probability to get the number one successively in all the 100 trials is  (1/6)^100 = 1 X 10^(-78) or 10 to the minus 78th power which is almost zero in ordinary perception.  But, the probability in the 100th trial to get the number one on the cast die is 1/6 or one-sixth regardless of the results of the preceding 99 trials, which does not look like a miracle to anybody.

So, sometimes people do not realize that a miracle is happening, only because they do not know past records.  They will think that the die has ordinarily showed the one on its surface while a miracle is happening as the one has appeared on the surface of the die 100 times continually.

In the situation that the one has appeared on a cast die continually twice, an event with the probability of 0.5% may happen still at the probability 1/6 = 17%.  In the situation that the one has appeared on a cast die continually 99 times, an event with the probability of 10 to the minus 78th power, which is almost zero, may still happen at the probability of 1/6 = 17%.

Regardless of past results, the probability that the one appears on a cast die is always 1/6 = 17%.  But this 17% might sometimes mean a miracle.

If Christ Jesus had had power to interfere with past records, it should have been no wonder that He could always perform a miracle.

If we have great faith, God might interfere with past records for us, and a miracle might occur even by us who can only make an event happen at an ordinary probability.

M'r:2:28: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
M'r:3:1: And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which had a withered hand.
M'r:3:2: And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse him.
M'r:3:3: And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.
M'r:3:4: And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.
M'r:3:5: And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

"from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth" - Christ Jesus at a Trillion Multiplied by a Trillion and then by a Million (1 X 10^30)

Christ Jesus at a Trillion Multiplied by a Trillion and then by a Million (1 X 10^30)

Christ Jesus said about multiplication of faith by 30,  60, and 100:

Mat 13:23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Meanwhile, the Bible stated that there had been 14 generations from Abraham to David, another 14 generations from David to Babylon; and other 14 generations from Babylon to Christ. 　

Mat 1:17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.

In the case that faith of Abraham was multiplied by 30, 60, and 100 in his descendants successively and Abraham's faith could be expressed in the quantity of 100, the faiths of Abraham's descendants would be 3,000, 6,000, and 10,000.  And again, this faith, namely 10,000, in the fourth generation from Abraham should be multiplied by  30, 60, and 100  in successive descendants; then the faith in the following generations  would be 300,000, 600,000, and 1,000,000.   This sequence from Abraham to Jesus of Nazareth would be as follows:

Generation No.     Level of Faith
1 100   (Abraham)
2 3000
3 6000
4 10000
5 300000
6 600000
7 1000000
8 30000000
9 60000000
10 100000000
11 3000000000
12 6000000000
13 10000000000
14 300000000000
15 600000000000 6E+11 (David)
16 1000000000000
17 30000000000000
18 60000000000000
19 100000000000000
20 3000000000000000
21 6000000000000000
22 10000000000000000
23 300000000000000000
24 600000000000000000
25 1000000000000000000
26 30000000000000000000
27 60000000000000000000
28 100000000000000000000
29 3000000000000000000000 3E+21 (Babylon)
30 6000000000000000000000
31 10000000000000000000000
32 300000000000000000000000
33 600000000000000000000000
34 1000000000000000000000000
35 30000000000000000000000000
36 60000000000000000000000000
37 100000000000000000000000000
38 3000000000000000000000000000
39 6000000000000000000000000000
40 10000000000000000000000000000
41 300000000000000000000000000000
42 600000000000000000000000000000
43 1000000000000000000000000000000 1E+30 (Christ Jesus) 

The result of this sequence means that, with the setting of ordinary man's faith to 1 and Abraham's faith to 100, David's faith is  600000000000 (6 X 10^11); the faith of Daniel and other prophets around the time of Babylon is 3000000000000000000000 (3 X 10^21); and the faith of Christ Jesus is 1000000000000000000000000000000 (1 X 10^30).

The Judism and the Jewish people had developed their faith over 2000 years from Abraham to Christ Jesus in the above sequence.  And, consequently, their faith increased from 100 (namely, 1 X 10^2, or a hundred) of Abraham to 1000000000000000000000000000000 (namely, 1 X 10^30 or a trillion multiplied by a trillion and then by a million).

Even today, an ordinary man may have faith in the magnitude of 1.  But Abraham must have, in deed, 100 of faith.  It is the level that is enough for a man to become the father or the founder of a tribe (the Jewish people).  Yet, David must have, in deed, 600 billion of faith.  It is the level that is enough for a man to become a great leader of a kingdom whose tradition would live 3,000 years or more.  Further a Jewish leader such as Daniel at the time of the exile to Babylon must have, in deed, 3 X 10^21 (3 trillion multiplied by a billion) of faith, which would be enough to establish a religion (Judaism) that would last 2500 years or more.  But, Christ Jesus must have faith of , in deed, 1 X 10^30 or a trillion multiplied by a trillion and then by a million, which would make a man somebody more than a son of a man.

So, an ordinary man of today with the spiritual level or faith at the level of 1 cannot understand Abraham at the level of 100 (1 X 10^2), David at the level of  600 billion (6 X 10^11), Daniel and other prophets at the level of 3 trillion multiplied by a billion (3 X 10^21), and Christ Jesus at a trillion multiplied by a trillion and then by a million (1 X 10^30).

Furthermore, to be called the Son of God, you must have faith at the level 1 X 10^30 times higher than that of an ordinary man of today.

And it is impossible to understand a man with the faith and ability larger by 10 to the 30th power times ordinary faith and ability.  That is why we need faith to believe and accept Christ Jesus.  Or any arguments or discussions about Christ Jesus must be nonsense.
