You might consider that, given that it's supposedly mathematical and mankind long ago learned mathematics, it would be as impossible to discover as it would be to create. That is, if man can discover it using mathematic deduction it's not a far stretch to say that he could devise it also...it's called "decompiling" and it's a popular crime in the software industry for example.
Which either reduces Scripture to being man-made (or at least par with man's imaginative abilities), or that the notion of a secret mathematics behind the Bible is a bunch of bunk designed to make somebody somewhere feel special.
And if the claim is that it takes a special someone, say some charismatic, to receive special revelation to such secret knowledge hidden in the Bible, then you have affirmed the ancient heresy of gnosticism which, upon analysis, is not far removed from the charismatic worldview that this world is evil to be avoided and only the spiritistic realm is good if you are so enlightened to receive information from it.
In any case, I would prescribe watching the movie "21" five times in quick succession, which would be far better for your spirituality and not to read charismatic diviners anymore.
Or, even better, to read the Bible as it was meant to be read.
