26 | In God We Trust | Or Is It Dollars? | Plus Religious and Cultural Affiliations +Sun God and Torah

As the majority of us who have held a US dollar bill in ours hands know, the currency has the words "In God We Trust" printed on the back, directly over the word "ONE".  Many times in my life, I have heard people raise the question, "But who is God?" and "What God is the dollar referencing"?  Well, I think I have the answer, thanks to Gematria.

• God = 7+15+4 = 26
• Sun God = 1+3+5+7+6+4 = 26
• Torah = 2+6+9+1+8 = 26 (Gematria is important to Kabbalah & the Torah)
• Letter = 3+5+2+2+5+9 = 26
• 26 letters in the alphabet
• Z is the 26th letter; think Zeus

Interestingly enough, the word "Dollar", also has '26 numerology'.

• Dollar = 4+6+3+3+1+9 = 26

So is it in God we trust, or in dollars?  When you think deeper about it, most churches are collecting dollars, and some more than others.  I'm looking at you Vatican.

In "26" we trust.

• Flag = 6+12+1+7 = 26
• Lie = 12+9+5 = 26
