Re: 666: The number of the beast

Hello.
If we go back in time - to around the second century, things appeared to be Rome as the antichrist. If we continue on that train of thought, as mny still do, it can appear as though the Roman Catholic Church is the Beast. Rome can certainly appear to fit.

1 Johhn 2:22
Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a man is the antichrist—he denies the Father and the Son.

That provides a good clue as to the antichrist.

What is of interest here is the 666 issue. There are many that can appear to fit.

Is it a Christian denomination? It can't be. Certainly not if it is one that is guided by The Holy spirit.

Something we must not overlook, or forget is that Jesus Christ suffered and died on the cross fore sinners. That makes up the whole of Christendom. A trick can be played to hold sins against Christendom to fool the Church in to thinking it is one of their own. That trick fools many.

The book of Revelation mentions a city on 7 hills. There are three that could fit the bills, and a war against the saints. There is also the taking of Jerusalem as it's own. Who can fit the bill? Rome sits on 7 hills. So does Jerusalem, but of course it can't be Jerusalem. That idea is just silly. Is there another city that sits on 7 hills? Yes there is. And it is of no Christian denomination, and it denies the Father and the Son. It even calls the Holy Trinity an abomination! What is the name of this City? Further is there anything to preove it is 666. First the latter. It claims that The Book of Revelation was written by Satan and that 666 is the holiest of numbers.

The Quran is written in Arabic - yet every copy of it has greek letters on the cover and crossed swords. The greek letters are the numbers 666!
The City is Mecca.

Islam looks to the second coming of the Messiah! It denies Jesus died on the cross. So who is it seeking to deliver to the world? It is certainly not one that will uphold Christianity.

Muhammad is the false prophet mentioned in the Book of Revelation.

Christisns have that Great Living Rock in whom is the Light of Mankind. Yes? Praise be to God.

Islam has that liefeleess dead stone in which there is nothing but darkness. The Kaaba stone in Mecca, which all Muslims bow down towards in prayer.

Do you see the analogy.

Mecca came after suspicious fingers were pointing at Rome.

Rome has never sat in Ancient Babylon.

Mecca is the City of Babylon.

The people here say the believe all of God's word. So believe what I have told you.

I have also noticed heavy judging of others from some. Stop doing it! Jesus did not die for you alone.

Luke 6:37
Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

Would Jesus approve of the hateful smiley of war?

Try and be more compassionatew and understanding towards others.

Also. Do not condemn the Muslim. Do what Jesus said and love the Muslim!

Do nothing that would incite hatred. If you are going to be hated then let it be because of striding to be Christ like.

First of all, this is NOT a debate forum. Please read THIS thread before making an even bigger fool of yourself.

Secondly, while the internets might seem to be "free" to you, this particular corner of the internets is a privately owned Christian forum. The rights you have on this forum are listed HERE. Please contact a Pastor if you feel that any of your rights have been violated.

Finally, your unsaved opinions or tantrums are not even slightly of interest to us. We follow the Holy Word of God TO THE LETTER, and make no apologies for that. One of the most important commandments in the Bible tells us to avoid unsaved scum such as yourself. You wandered in here uninvited, and unwelcome.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.

Re: 666: The number of the beast

I have recieved a message from you, to which it seems I am unable to reply.

I'll have you now, Jesus Christ is the greatest friend I have in my life. So who are you to call me unsaved scum?

Le'ts sort that one out first before going any further.

Re: 666: The number of the beast

I said Jesis is my best friend. I meant what I said. I know him. Yet I have quickly been labelled unsaved trash here. I see hatred on this forum, and not love.

Go and find out what this means:

1 Corinthians 2:16
"For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.

To be taken seriously.

It's sad you have to resort to such idiotic behavior in attempt to try and shock us. Do you parents neglect you? Is that your problem?

[Yellow Snowey]

Re: 666: The number of the beast

If you understood then you would know that what I have put is on topic.

A person cannot be both with Christ and against Christ.

How is it you do not recognise Islam as the Beast and the antichrist, even though the Quran boasts the number 666 on it's cover?

How is it that you appear to be seeking more of a war against Christians?

[klaangen]

Re: 666: The number of the beast

didnt try to shock you, just telling you how it is..

by the way, i love my parents, and my parents love me back, perhaps you were neglected as a child and thats why you now have resorted to being a jerk and talking down to people.

peace be with you.

You Christians are all alike. Completely insane, completely intolerant other religions other than your own, and all 100% sure that your particular interpretation of the Bible must be the right one.

You seriously have issues if you believe anything in that nonsensical book of Revelation to be true. How about that everything in that ridiculous book is so vague that people have been interpreting what it means for 2000 years - to mean whatever the hell they want it to mean. Every generation sees the book as talking about contemporary events, and you are no different. Seriously, why don't you concentrate on living your life instead of predicting who the Anti-Christ is, and probably end up being as wrong as every other person who has made that guess.

And I love how you seem to think you are so much more loving and accepting than the Landover folk. "How DARE you make fun of Catholics! That's terrible! Satan isn't a Christian denomination - Satan is everyone else who isn't Christian!!!"

Where did Jesus say we should love those who hate Him? I must have missed that verse.

That's an interesting point. I'd not heard of it before.

http://www.beholdthebeast.com/islam__quran_and_666.htm

Below (left) are photos of Greek symbols translated in the Bible as 666, from Free Jesus.net: The gold symbol (bottom and right) is Arabic for "Allah" when turned and mirrored. Additionally, crossed swords are a symbol for Islam. So in 666 we may find symbols for both "Islam" and "Allah".

I'd like to also point out that the symbol (upper right) looks remarkably like a coiled serpent, perhaps a rattlesnake, raised up and ready to strike.

Coincidence? :hmm:

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Re: 666: The number of the beast

I would just like to point out that in an old book I have, the following passage is written,

Each letter of the old alphabets has a numerical value. Thus the writer of the Sibyllines points out the Greek name of Jesus--[Greek: Iota-eta-sigma-omicron- upsilon-sigma],--by saying that its whole number is equivalent to eight units, eight tens, and eight hundreds. This is the exact numerical value of the six Greek letters composing the Saviour's name, 10 + 8 + 200 + 70 + 400 + 200=888 precisely. So John here tells us what is the numerical value of the letters in the name of the Beast and in the Hebrew tongue that is 600 + 60 + 6.

Re: 666: The number of the beast

Where did Jesus say we should love those who hate Him? I must have missed that verse.

Matthew 5:43-45
43 "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
44 But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

We should all know that hatred is not the way forward. What good is our faith if we are hated for all the wrong reasons? We, who are Christians only have one enemy. We should endevour to win them with love. This is the way Jesus has taught us, for we too were once cut off from God.

The snake in the iimage. Yes, I have noticed that before now too. Conicidence. I think it being more of a case of God only permitting the antichrist providing enough clues were given. After all, we were warned to start off with.

Doesn't the Bible say to love your neighbor?

Yes. Does that mean to lie to him and tell him what he wants to hear? No. It means to tell him the truth, and warn him to flee from the wrath to come. As we are commanded in Leviticus 19:17, "Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him." Here, loving your neighbour is defined as rebuking him, and not allowing sin to come upon him. Further, we have never suggested that we don't love our neighbor. The purest, most exalted form of love is to tell people the truth, especially about weighty matters such as life and death, sin, righteousness, judgment to come, Heaven and Hell.


But remember, David said: "Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? Am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them mine enemies." Psalm 139:21, 22. David hated God's enemies with a perfect, spiritual hatred (as opposed to the fickle human emotion of hatred), just as all of God's elect do.
