Product Description A belief that the ancients held unusual scientific knowledge, of which only fragments remain today, was held by many great philosophers and scientists who participated in the "scientific revolution". Though research by these men led to great discovery, many were convinced that they were merely scratching the surface of an immense but lost pristine knowledge (prisca sapientia) somehow reflected in the architecture and remains of ancient civilizations. In "Temple at the Center of Time Investigations of Sacred Dimension, Revealed in Prophecy, the Temple of Jerusalem, and the Ark of the Covenant, from the works of Isaac Newton", David Flynn uncovers what is sure to be heralded as one of the greatest discoveries of all time. Many books have investigated whether Newton believed that an original pure knowledge existed. Some conclude that he did in fact search for it, but that is the whole of their investigation. A few have written that Newton actually discovered something and try to fit his existing research into a prisca sapientia of their own design, claiming his beliefs fit modern realms of philosophy or eastern religions, but these speculations are not upheld by the body of his work. Although Newton had solved riddles of space, time, gravity, light and invented mathematics to predict the motion of objects, this was not the priscia sapienta. Since the time of Newton, no one has revealed the true form and nature of the original knowledge, or from whence it came until now. For the first time in history, "Temple at the Center of Time" uncovers what Newton was looking for and, in so doing, proves that pivotal events in history are unquestionably connected in time and space to Jerusalem. Newton didn't know it. The key was right in front of him.

Well worth the wait! September 13, 2008 21 out of 26 found this review helpful
I finally received Temple At The Center of Time. It was well worth the wait! I considered myself someone who knew a lot about the life and work of Isaac Newton and this book reveals a new aspect of the man that I'm sure many will find surprising. Newton, the genius who was the first to describe and predict the behavior of time and space understood the link between the author of time and space and His past dwelling place on earth. Flynn's work extends this understanding for anyone who might take the time to read. I had the recurring impression while reading that I had been allowed to drink the clearest, freshest water after believing that my perpetual thirst was normal. You must read this!
Flynn's book is light on 2012, heavy on Biblical & Secular history September 29, 2008 15 out of 16 found this review helpful
As a sincere follower and believer in Jesus Christ, Flynn does a good job issuing a prophetic "watch" notice, blending Biblical and secular accounts of historical facts with 'new' data. Most of this 'new' data is centered around linking distances from Jerusalem's Temple Mount to key historical dates which seem to defy mere coincidence. (Of course, most Hebrew Rabbis will tell you coincidence is not a Kosher word!)
While some of the logic and calculations may seem contrived, Flynn does a good job using new technology (specifically NASA's World Wind program) in calculating distances to key locations in London, Washington, Babylon, Mecca, Egypt and other nations who possess unique historical relationships with Jerusalem's ancient Jewish Temples. Many of these "distances that match key dates and symbols" range from 1,948 nautical miles from the center of London to the corner stone of Solomon's Temple. This matches up to 1948AD, when the British Empire established the Modern Nation of Israel. Flynn also shows there are 666 nautical miles between Mecca, Saudi Arabia and the Temple corner stone.
Flynn does a good job linking these calculations back to Biblical prophecies of Daniel, with some unique insights not published before. For example, Flynn calls out the unique properties of numbers such as 2,520 (equivalent to the number of days in Daniel's "week of years" as well as the gematria of Babylon's King Nebuchaadnezzar's `writing on the wall' interpreted by Daniel), 1,260 (half of 2,520) the constant pi and other numbers with their roots in the ancient Jewish Temples' architecture. He also makes some other very unique, interesting observations between the geo-positioning of ancient sites and their relation to the Temple. Flynn does NOT put forth this type of distance / date observation as a new "bible code" but rather explores Isaac Newton's Bible research as it relates to ancient prophecy and world events.
Other calculations are not as straight forward, such as the year 2012 calculated through a series of conversions between Lunar (Hebrew) and Solar (Gregorian) calendars, multiplication against Pi and offset by the dedication year of Solomon's Temple. These calculations are all contained within less than 6 pages of the Epilogue out of 296 total pages which doesn't warrant it as a sub-title for the entire book.
Beyond the time / distance parallel calculations, Flynn does an interesting job linking post-renaissance "illuminated" world leaders' beliefs from the Jewish Temple's vantage point. Facts are well cited in each respective chapter's end notes, such as the origin of the word "church", "ark" and "tau" in how they are inter-related to the "primal knowledge" or "priscia sapientia" avidly pursued by many renaissance scholars. Flynn makes subtle reference to the growing tension around 2012 as the end of the Mayan calendar and the potential for that time being a star gate through which the 'watchers' (implicit in Genesis 6, Matthew 24 and Jude) return to earth. Under no circumstances does Flynn pick any second advent, rapture or other prophetic dates but merely puts the reader on 'watch notice' similar to a meteorological tornado watch.
Bottom line: read the book. Flynn's ambassadorship for the King of kings is well reflected in this thoughtful piece of work.

David Flynn is a credible genius! September 19, 2008 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
Ignore the guy claiming this book holds no new information! This book makes a credible and documented case for the existence of deeper coding hidden in plain view of the pages within the bible! It's all in the history of the world and the bible, so if you only read one book this year please make it this one!
Outstanding Work!! September 21, 2008 12 out of 15 found this review helpful
I am VERY please to have come across this work! I am a "numbers cruncher" kinda guy and a Born Again believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. This book will strengthen your faith as you see God's work in time and space. It will also encourage you as you see the TIME is Short, and this age is rapidly coming to a final close. You MUST read this book if you love the Red Meat of God's mysteries being revealed in this age we live.
Be not deceived. Let not your heart be troubled, October 2, 2008 12 out of 23 found this review helpful
Fellow readers and searchers for the truth I give this book, "Temple at the Center of Time: Newton's Bible Codex Deciphered and the Year 2012", two stars only because of some of its more novel approaches that are good stepping stones for other research. However: "Take heed that ye are not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am "anointed"; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.... Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid (Read Luke 21, Matthew 24, John 14:27) Let me preface, I have been following "end of the world/ age" prophecies and books making money off of this market of fear in our culture for decades. Second, I do believe there is prophecy which indicates that there will be an end to this age of man as we know it, which is but a transition to another age with humankind still here on the planet earth - yes that is what prophecy says, but the information is vast and the potential end game points or dates are multiple depending on how you want to apply the numbers or scriptures. 2012-13 is but one possible date, but a weak one considering other calculations.
Could that year be pivotal, potentially game changing? Possibly. The end of the world for you, maybe, but not likely and quite seeded in fundamental errors of presumption that you will be gifted life to that date anyway. Today could be anyone's end of days. Then how should we live? Thankful, in the moment of now, occupying as scripture commands and not living on or feeding our minds and spirits with some presumptions of fear that we let rule our heart contrary to the scripture that your heart is to be ruled and reigned in peace. Of course, a book about the end of the world around 2018, 2029 or 2060 or 2250 are not nearly as compelling as a nearer date in time particularly if you want to sell more books to make more money - and yes all of those dates and others have data to be dates for the end of this age as we know it, if one is allowed the incredible latitude the author, David Flynn, gives himself in this book.
This book is but another, in an endless series, feeding off of the ever extending arch into the future of the end of the world hysteria. Or as the Bible warned: just another attempt of the spirit of the anti-Christ, qualifying that whether the author of this book is sincere or not I do not know, but none the less it appears to be a "merchandising of men's souls" with fear, and deception not in what it does say but what it does not.
Please, people, wake up and stop encouraging this shrill of books feeding off your fear of the end of the world. A book like this comes across to the skeptic and anti-theist as a marketing gimmick and to the discerning theist as cheap theology, historic revisionism, selective science and manipulated numerology that should make any honest person blush if they looked you in the face and tried to get you to seriously believe the number acrobatics and contortions that are performed in this book.
Like the one review here with only one star rightly divided, this book is filled with tortuous if not contrived and highly speculative numerology. There are so many logical errors and fallacies in the book that should be obvious for anyone that has some depth of knowledge in logical argument process, prophecy, eschatology, and occultist numerology that it is hard to understand why anyone would risk their future credibility to publish such a book considering the glut of such books we have already on the subject other than the purpose of making money and to apparently satisfy a still unfilled appetite of the masses for more apocalyptic books that apparently do not concern the readers of them when their predictions fail time and time again.
Do the numbers and prophecies indicate a time of high fertility for the conception of an age changing moment of critical instability on the planet around 2012? Yes, as they did with the year 2000, 2006, and too many times in the past to mention here, as well as do 2018, 2029 etc. The only novelty of 2012/13 is that we get many more esoteric players involved like the Mayan's, for just one example, who we are told were so mathematically and prophetically gifted with the lost "pristine knowledge" of the ancients that they could allegedly see the end of the world but curiously it is not studied much why they could not see the end of themselves and use the power of their purported intellectual and spiritual capabilities to save themselves.
The book uses the mathematics and superstitions of a dead civilization among other sources of data and the manipulations of the numerological studies of icons like Newton, who by his own words chastises books and authors like this one. But that does not seem to matter to David Flynn, who attempts to disprove Newton's calculations but then twist the same calculations with flawed, if not amusing logical fallacies, as a matter of convenience for the book he needs to sell. Using math that does not add up, to then use what he previously disproved to then prove the same with little scientific credibility. The end result to fabricate a book that is not much more than fanciful fiction, which probably should have been written as a novel more so than as a book to be taken seriously, considering the hundreds of books that have made these repetitive authors of end time shell-games already fat with money from readers who forgot the failed predictions of the last book they bought heralding the doom of all things.
Save your money and read and study vigorously the Bible for yourself and use the resources of the internet and a good library to amplify that study and let your heart be ruled and reigned in peace as the scriptures admonish but be not led astray to that ultimate goal of the Adversary of the great falling away from the faith before the son-of perdition is revealed that books like this are cultivating by the disinformation they promote. If you want to be really intrigued, research how whole websites and articles are created just as marketing tools to sell more books like this and not to disseminate factual knowledge or truth but to make merchandise of your souls and for the love of mammon.
