Here's my crack at interpreting the 666 syndrome so far - Keith Newman

Most people use their more capable "right hand" to earn a living, unless of course you're a "sinister" lefty like me. If you're academically inclined you'll use your forehead or your brain to make your way in life. Most of us use a bit of both.

mark_forehead.jpg (3338 bytes) The mark or the name of the beast in "the right hand or forehead" may have more to do with how we apply our thoughts and actions than the machinations of some global dictator and his database, tracking implanted chips.

Man was created "in the image of God" on the sixth day. The number seven is the seal of God, the seventh day of rest and spiritually aware, responsible humanity in tune with creation. 666 is imperfect, selfish, humanity putting the creature before the Creator. The image of the beast is fallen humanity worshipping at its own reflection. The alternative to 'beastly' behaviour is godly behaviour.

In its extreme the beast may indeed be branded humanity in some future decade when we’ve all been sufficiently seduced, or it may be that science takes us to the edge and creates the ‘cloned’ image of man, the legendary golem or soulless person, Jewish rabbis could conjure up from the clay.

For the moment the beast is us - humanity struggling with its animal nature, deciding who to serve with our hands, heads and hearts. I agree with both Christians and extremists on one major point, 'don't take the mark of the beast' – Keith Newman

PS: I’ll add any variations on the theme as they come to hand.

The wicked web?

“The number 6 in Hebrew numerology is the letter equivalent of "Weh" which is W in English hence, WWW or the world wide web. Every time you communicate through the web you are given the prefix www dot your server dot com and your name,” - April Dillow. Editor: Wow, what a wicked web we weave? However since in Hebrew, hundreds, tens and ones have different characters www would translate to Taw-Resch-Samech-Wawor 400-200-60-6 so there goes another urband myth. Thanks Wikipedia.

Why haven’t we heard this before?

“Where did you come up with this? (the Editor's interpretation) I know not of other men, alive, that would even think these things I have written to you, or that you wrote on a website. Most of whom I have mentioned these things to, think I'm crazy. But, by God's Love and Grace, I was able to hear these things, and know them….Thankyou for your time,” - David Philpot

Heavens not Gates?

“I think the 666 is Bill Gates but please help me understand why I am the 272727 Habuhiah il a bu, please help me to understand because if that World don't change we all are going to die.”

Confusion with time?

“When written six hundred, six score and six, indicates that the name of the beast is years. Not a man but an interval. The grim reaper perhaps, can be construed as a man. Since the worst scouring of the earth [black death] was just over 650 years ago. I am not a theologist, just an ordinary man. I think I am correct in this. As it was not termed or mean’t to be 666 but rather as one would express years 600, 6 X 20, + 6. So if we are to beware his coming expect it to begin in about 12 years. So be it!! - Dennis Murphy.

Another interesting or weird (and that used to mean 'connected' in ye olde language) interpretation is given at the site 666NOW
    ( http://www.666now.com/ )

"… men began to seek their own way to heaven and you have probably heard the story about the tower of Babel when God confused the languages. Many are not aware that this event marked the high point of the first Babylon's fall because the Creator was upset with their worship of their planetary gods. What we call the Zodiac today is basically a practice which began long ago in Mesopotamia where it was believed that there were powers which could be achieved through honoring the sun, moon stars and planets. It was believed that the sun was the supreme god which brought life and warmth and within the sun and all the stars and planets were the spirits of their departed loved ones."

The debt factor?

Being as we're all members of the same family, is it good that we should bind ourselves in debt to each other? Does the practice of acquiring debt presuppose we know what God wants for our future?

Shouldn't the true follower of God leave open and clear the next day so God isn't restricted in his ability to direct him or her?

66 satellites
The Iridium satellite system was originally going to 666mark.jpg (7034 bytes) have 77 nodes in its heavenly network but when they actually went to put them up in orbit they found the optimum number was 66. Iridium is one of a new breed of global communications satellite systems designed to provide coverage wherever you are in the world. However not enough people showed interest in it and the phones were so expensive it went bankrupt.

Confusion in the skies
The so-called mystics of that time believed they had the know-how to harness the power and knowledge of their gods through their study of the planets. As they began to track their gods they developed numeric measurements to monitor the positions and believe that with this understanding they could begin to predict, or even alter events on the earth.

The belief at the time was that the earth was basically flat and the sun passed the top side and protected them during the day and at night it would fight the demons on the bottom side. The path of the sun was divided into sections, or houses, and there were 6 house for the daily journey and 6 for the night.

In each one of these houses were 3 rooms which meant 18 rooms for each day and night totaling 36. These 36 position points were considered different manifestations of the gods as both the sun and all the other planets passed through these rooms. As you have learned in school 6 x 6 = 36.

The number 6 was believed to be a mystical number. This may sound funny but it is true. If you add the number 1 through 36 together (i.e. 1+2+3+4...36) you get 666 which was the mystery number and believed to be the number of the mystery god. The god represented by this number was believed to be a seven headed dragon type beast which was both good and evil and the superstitious people even offered human sacrifices to this god along with their other planetary gods. So you see, 666 was established long ago as part of Satan's plan to confuse people and lead them into participating in empty pagan practices designed to divert them from worshiping the true God of Heaven."

It's all been done before
Keith, very interesting stuff. But I have to say that I disagree with about 90% of what you wrote. Have you ever read Ken Gentry's "666: The Beast of Revlation" and "Before Jerusalem Fell"? He points out that the beast was Nero on the fact that his name does work out to be 666, but also, the king who comes after the five that have fallen, is actually Nero, the sixth Caesar to reign over Rome.

John says, "Five have fallen and "one is"..." This points to a ruler who was reigning during the time of John's letter. Many assume that John wrote his letter around 90a.d.-96a.d., but with the evidence of this sixth ruler, it is evident that Revelation was written before 70a.d. John continues to say in Rev.17:10 about the seventh king, "and one has not yet come, but when he
comes, he must reign a "short while." This seventh king could be none other than Galba who reigned after Nero's death and for only six months.

There is much more detail to this subject of Nero and the other rulers and also to the subject of whether the book of Revelation was written before or after 70a.d. If you have the chance, read the books I mentioned by Ken Gentry (if you haven't already) and also "Last Days Madness" by Gary Demar, to show that Matthew 24 and most of Revelation have already been fulfilled. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Keith, On your site "http://www.wordworx.co.nz/666explain.html" under "It's All Been Done Before" the author quotes Gentry as a reliable source. Gentry is not correct, his interpretation of prophecy flawed, and his research unscientific. Gentry, in short, had a theory and found facts to support his theory, rather than let facts determine the truth. Here's a link explaining in more detail
Gentry's flaws (it's by Dr. Thomas Ice of the Pre-Trib Research Center):

AntiChrist here now?
I think the anitchrist will have the number 666 to identify him. I also think he is on the earth right now. Chapter 13 revelation's are happening in today's world. I do not think it is the end of the world but the end of Satan's specific reign on earth. There is more evil in today's world than there is at anytime since the creation. I would like to hear your opinion - Michael Tuman (latuman@dellnet.com)

Our creations or works
“You hit the nail, right on the head. The mark of the beast, in the right hand or in the forehead. It is by our creations, or works, that we would/could acquire the mark of the beast. But I can give you a name for that mark. It is ‘Pride’. Man is proud of his works, his thoughts, his creations. Most of which are evil, and what aren't evil, man is still proud of his accomplishment forgetting that good can only come from God. Let's not forget, pride got Lucifer kicked out of heaven. Lucifer is always trying to gain followers. Since he is mad at God, he attempts to take man away, to be more of his followers. Hence, pride IS evil.

It is by pride, that man will fall. Man is proud of himself for his works. Man exalts himself to be good. Man exalts himself to be as, or better than, God. Lucifer did the same thing. And took a third of the angels with him to hell. "His tail drew a third part of the stars"

The number 666, it is the number of a man. Could it be Adam? Adam was the first man, and from him came Eve, and then the rest of humanity. We all are descendants of Adam. Would Adam be mankind? So the number 666, is the number of mankind. What the number itself means, or is, by mathematical calculation, I have no idea.

Again, you hit the nail right on the head. Mankind has become ‘beastly’. Therefore, YES, the antichrist is here, NOW.”

My Friend might be 666
“I have a friend, he was born in 6,16,1986 and there are three 6s in his birth date. Does that mean he is the devil? Because, he always does some weird stuffs, say some weird thing that I don't even know and he always write some weird stuffs too. Is he the devil or just
some kind of coincidence?” – Max. March,10, 2k1

The Devil's phone number?

“I realized after my friend Paul pointed it out, that the Bible does not say 666! It says six hundred three score and 6. So I analyzed this sequence came up with the beasts phone # and social security #. 1) phone # ( 600-202- 0206) #2 hexedecimaly which is equivalent to a normal ss number. I called the phone # and got things I have never heard on a phone before also the next time I did this I got the normal things you get when dialing an area code that does not exist. Also many strange things happened after I dialed it. This I did over two years ago I’m nervous about looking up the ss#. Very interesting don't you think? - Anon

Reds under the bed again
Dear Sir.

Have read your website with great interest. Communism is taking over the world with eventually one unelected world government. The EC (European Community) has now been reversed to read CE (Communist Europe). Everything sold in Europe must bare this mark.

Communism was Instigated by the Jew Karl Marx. Since its beginning in Russia, the communists have murdered more people than all other organisations put together. No communist war criminal has ever been brought to justice.

The European Union was brought about, against the wishes of the people who had no say in the matter, The government who colluded in this conspiracy were all socialist (communist).

We in Europe are well aware that the capital of America is Tel Aviv and that Bush is merely a Zionist puppet who does as he is told. We also know that the attack on the twin towers was not an attack on America, but on the Jews who control America. The Gulf War was fought at our expense on behalf of and for Israel,

The Israelis are now pushing America into another war in order to ensure that America is seen as the Arabs enemy and will back all Israeli expansion into Arab territory. Israel will be the cause of the next world war.

If you look at the Israeli flag, it contains the star of David

This star contains 6 points, 6 sides, 6 triangles within the star
The sum of the sides to the 6 triangles equals 18 =6x6x6 Coincidence!
The Bible says that the new order will be the anti-christ (communism).
America is being communised and destroyed from within faster than you know.

I would be interested in your comments.

Yours truly RKV. (rkv@supanet.com)

The Muslim Twist

Here is the wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666 -----(Rev. 13, Ver. 18)

After the (prophet-the anti Christ) Muhammad Bin Abdullah (570-632 AD.). The evil power of Islam came into existence as The Umayyad dynasty 660-750 AD.

Led by Kalifa Muaweiah. The Christian world was devastated and the seven churches of Asia minor were wiped out. The number of the beast 666 falls within this Evil Era, and 666 was the year when the Muslim thret was planed to conquer the Christian world.

John to the seven churches, which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne. (Rev. 1. Ver. 4).

And the Dragon was enraged with the woman, And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her child (Christ) as soon as it was born and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keeps the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. (Rev. 12, Ver. 17).

Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (Christians & Jews) smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly on them: Therefore Generosity or ransom: until the war lays down its burdens. (Quran-Muhammed. Ver. 4).

And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, his tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. (Rev. 13, Ver. 5-6).

They blaspheme who say: Allah is Christ the son of Mary. (Quran-Al Maidah. Ver.72). They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in trinity: for there is no god except one God. If they desist not from their word of blasphemy, verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them. (Quran-Al Maidah. Ver. 73).

It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to over come them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. (Rev. 13, Ver. 7)

But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the pagans
(Christians & Jews) wherever ye find them, and seize them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war. (Quran-Al Tawbah Ver. 5)

His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth.
And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her child (Christ) as soon as it was born. She bore a male child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her child was caught up to God and his throne. (Rev. 12, Ver. 4-5).

The Muslim nations in the world Have a population of 1.5 billion about 1/3 the population of the world. Larger than China, we have to consider also that the Chinese people history is very peacefull, the history of the Muslim people is very bloody, and is the only religion in the world where their QURAN directs hate towards Christians and Jews, and erges to kill them and be rewards from heaven.

The land of Israel was occupied and surrounded by Muslim forces since 638 AD. when Jerusalem fell in their grip And until now, The two hundred million army of Muslims is already existing just say Allah Wakbar, and they will gather like animals from every Muslim nation in the world to do Satins will.

Now the number of the army of the horsemen was two hundred million: I heard the number of them. (Rev. 9, Ver. 16-21)

Truly Allah loves those who fight in his cause in battle array, as if they
were a solid cemented structure.(Quran-Al Saff. Ver. 4) And slay them wherever ye catch them (Christians & Jews), and turn them out
from where they have turned you out.(Quran- Al Baqarah. Ver.191)

They (Muslims) went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city (Jerusalim). And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. (Rev. 20. Ver 9)

The Masque of the rock is built on the same spot where the Jewish temple was, and the sacrifice offering is still going on in the month of AL ADHA, where they offer sacrifices by slaughtering sheep.

He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity: He who kills with the
sword must be killed with the sword. (Rev. 13, Ver. 10) He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming quickly." Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus! (rev. 20)

I believe that the enemy of christ is the Muslim world since 532 AD. When Muhammed was born, and still is to the end of time. Who else! Look at histroy, look who is surrounding jerusalem now, and to the end of time.

Time bears the mark

Keith, written six hundred, six score and six, indicate that the name of the beast is years. Not a man but an interval. The grim reaper perhaps, can be construed as a man. Since the worst scouring of the earth {black death] was just over 650 years ago. I am not a theologist, just an ordinary man. I think I am correct in this . As it was not termed or mean't to be 666 but rather as one would express years 600,6 X 20, + 6. So if we are to beware his coming expect it to begin in about twelve years. So be it!!. Dennis Murphy.

No! my middle name doesn't have six letters. Letters and names mean nothing in this matter. Have a great day

Bohunk, bohunk@attbi.com

The mark is Masonic

It's the number of a MAN, not a computer. This man will come into play once this last world war gets up to speed. He'll stop all wars cause they're all phony anyway, all started by the Masonic lodge. He'll be a high (The Highest) degree member, put the word out, stop all the wars on earth and will be loved by the whole world for it. This is where the mark comes in. A genetic chip etched right into the flesh, no more "show me your papers" and people will be more than glad to accept this. Here's the turn around, this etched flesh will later turn into the most painful ulcer man has ever experienced, EVER. Mankind will want to die because of this painful ulcer. So there's your warning, if you later on accept this you'll remember what I wrote after you get the skin ulcer.
