Discovery of clockwise pattern for 95 theses
Frank Jakubowsky discovered the clockwise pattern in Luther’s 95 theses. The sequence
of the ten parts are in the opposite direction of the counterclockwise pattern.
This is second discovery about Luther’s 95 theses. This article is to show that Luther’s 95 theses is also in a clockwise pattern when a few theses are grouped together. The sequence of the clockwise pattern is in the reverse direction from the counterclockwise pattern.
Theses 1 through 4 relates to the part that I labeled spiritual. Theses 5 through 7 relates to the next part in the clockwise direction which is sociable. Theses 8-17 relates to reject. It has a quality that includes ideas like death, dying, purgatory, pains, horror and etc. 18-24 relates to communication. 25-33 relates to authoritative. 34-37 relates to fruitful. 38-41 relates to expansive. 42-51 relates to inadequacy. Note: that almost all theses in this group starts with: “Christians should be taught…”. This is a strong indication that these groups that I defined really have a unified quality. It has an inadequacy quality because it implies that Christians aren’t taught enough. 52-56 relates to enlighten. 57-63 relates to action. 64-69 relates to spiritual. 70-74 relates to sociable. 75-81 relates to reject. “Blasphemy” is mentioned twice, which surely has a reject quality. 82-89 relates to communication. On my web site I mentioned that the question mark is probably the best test for communication. In this part there are eight question marks. There is only one other question mark in the 95 theses. This is an excellent result to confirm the quality of this part and the idea that Luther grouped his theses in patterns.
90-95 relates to authoritative. The word “Christ” is used three times. The word “Christ” occurred only ten times in the 95 theses. Note that the other authoritative part of 25-33 has “God” three times. The word “God” was used 16 times in the whole 95 theses. Christ and God sure have an authoritative character.
Looking at Luther’s 95 theses in these two ways adds to the validity of this discovery of Luther’s writing pattern relating to the Spirit of truth. It is more than showing the spiritual character of Luther; it is a way of testing if the Spirit of truth can be identified by examining a person’s writing pattern. It is a way of realizing that the Spirit of truth is active in the world. See more examples of writing at my web site; Best Seller authors write in same pattern.
This new way of examining the Spirit of truth should be further tested by religious people because scientists are severely challenged by this concept of spirit and mind. They would need to abandon their materialistic philosophy that the brain only reveals the mind process. This discovery can be tested scientifically by doing word counts on each part and comparing it to those key words that I selected to represent a part. There can be more scientific tests such as I did for question marks, pronouns, Christ, and God. Note: I gave another way of testing the idea of a cycle of ten on my web site. In My Inspirational Stories by Frank Jakubowsky I had shown how Jesus last day fitted the same clockwise pattern as the Parable of the Prodigal Son.
