Related: About this forumTebow Time: The three 3:16 references
http://l.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/YuZPDCwDrgnLbSuWlBbmXA--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7cT04NTt3PTYzMA--/The fact that Tebow had 316 yards passing and averaged 31.6 yards per pass in the game didn't escape notice on Sunday night. Tebow wore "John 3:16" on his eye black in the 2009 BCS Championship game and has since become identified with the famous Bible message. The coincidental stats caused millions of fans to perform Google searches on the Bible passage in the past 24 hours. Here's one more unbelievable stat: John Ourand of Sports Business Journal reports that the final quarter-hour television rating for the Broncos-Steelers game was, you guessed it, 31.6.

Now, before any of Tebow's detractors jumps on me, I'm not suggesting the stats or the Broncos victory had anything to do with God...but you have to admit, the 3:16 coincidences are rather unusual to say the least..

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
