The
Mark of the Beast
Go to here to view the new "verichip" an implantable chip the size of a ball point pen tip that will carry all your personal information. This is a here and now thing, being implanted now, being promoted now, and being considered for worldwide application and enforced use. This is not something in the future.
Think this isn't happening now??? Go to here to see the requirement to drive a big truck on the road!!!!
Towards the end of the Bible in
the book of the Revelation (chapters 13 & 14) there is prophecy concerning
an end-time dictator who is scheduled to rule the whole world. In symbolic
language he is called The Beast! Elsewhere in Scripture he is known as:
The
Man of Sin | |
The
Man Lawlessness | |
The
Son of Perdition | |
The
Little Horn | |
The
Antichrist |
When he appears he will order
every soul on earth to receive his mark, his identifying sign or signature
in their foreheads or right hands. No one will be able to buy and sell without
first accepting the mark! This will be economic sanctions on a
scale the world has never known. Regardless of nationality, colour or creed, it
will apply to everyone who refuses to receive the Mark of the Beast. You
may be sure it will be a testing time for all mankind and comparatively few
people will pass the test.
In the same prophecy Yahweh, the Almighty God
of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob warns mankind that all who
accept the Mark of the Beast will experience the full measure of His wrath,
which is to be poured out undiluted, 'without mixture, into the cup of His
indignation.'
It is a terrifying prophecy to say the least and
one you must understand if you want to escape the wrath of the Almighty God.
Bible commentators have through the centuries endeavoured to interpret this
prophecy; and there is no shortage of explanations available.
The Mark of the Beast some say is:
An
invisible, coded tattoo, discernible only by high-tech equipment or
some kind of X-ray. | |
The
diabolic brand mark of an evil spirit. | |
A computerised
society in which all business transactions will be done by credit
cards. | |
A silicon
identity chip inserted under the skin. etc. etc. |
There are probably as many
explanations of the Mark of the Beast as there are religious
denominations; and you are free to make your choice and believe the one which
suits you best. But to be honest, we have to admit that nowhere in the Bible
does the Almighty categorically say what the Mark of the Beast is. To be
sure, He has given us some very good clues, which point the believer to the
truth: but of the Mark itself Scripture provides no clear cut definition.
Nevertheless, in spite of this apparent lack, and we will soon discover that
Yahweh is by no means at fault here, the prophecy concerning the Mark of the
Beast deserves careful consideration; for it is a revelation of such awesome
prospect that only fools will continue to ignore it. Here, indeed, are divine
threatenings which every man and woman the world over should pay special heed
to; because they deal with a degree of punishment more severe than we can
imagine, let alone describe. Please understand that we have no wish to dramatise
the issue; nor do we want to piously play it down as though it were of little
account. The gravity and urgency of this prophecy demands that we fearlessly
present the facts to all who seek to escape the wrath of Yahweh the Almighty
God of Israel.
In our efforts to identify the Mark of the
Beast we will initially confine ourselves to a logical assessment of the
Scriptures alone; and then adopt the only conclusion the facts allow. To venture
beyond this into the arena of melodramatic fantasy and wild speculation, as seen
in many films and books on the subject, is self-deluding and dangerous.
Let us begin by quoting three passages concerning
the:
Trade
Sanctions imposed on all who refuse to receive the Beast’s Mark | |
Divine
Punishment for those who ignore God’s warning and accept it. |
Bear in mind that here we are
quoting Bible texts: which must not be confused with the weird teachings of some
religious cult leaders.
Rev.13:16:
|
And he causeth all,
both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in
their right hand, or in their foreheads: |
Rev.14:9:
|
And the third angel
followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast
and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, |
Rev.16:2:
|
And the first went,
and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and
grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them
which worshipped his image. |
No one who holds the Bible to be the inspired Word of God will doubt, but
that here before us is portrayed the most terrifying threat in all Scripture; a
prophecy of unparalleled importance to every soul on earth. And yet, as
previously pointed out, the Mark of the Beast is not defined in the Bible. In
other words, we are not told in plain language what the Mark is. At this point
one may be tempted to ask:
Why
didn't God tell us what the Mark of Beast is? | |
How
can He expect His followers to resist receiving the deadly Mark of the Beast
if most of them don't even know what it is? |
These are fair questions; but
you will soon realise that Yahweh has by no means left His people in hopeless
ignorance concerning this matter. In the Bible He has given us several
meaningful clues, which if followed through will guide the interested believer
to the correct understanding of this puzzling prophecy. The Most High has, in
fact, here set before mankind a spiritual riddle, the answer to which is
so amazing that once you have learned it, you will never again wonder what the Mark
of Beast is. Let us, therefore, without further delay examine just two
scriptural clues and follow their lead.
Let us now consider these two
clues.
There exists in Scripture a
fundamental principle regarding the origin and understanding of
Bible prophecy. The principle is mentioned in this passage:
2
Peter 1:20: |
Knowing this first,
that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. |
Origin
Bible prophecy is not the product of human intellect or will power. It is a gift
from God. Holy men of old were inspired by the Holy Spirit: or, as the text
says, "they were moved by the Holy Ghost."
Understanding
In exactly the same way, the understanding of Bible prophecy is also not
a matter of human intellect or will power. One must be given the
understanding just as the prophets of old were given the prophecy. In
other words, spiritual eyesight is also a gift from God. This means that
without the Holy Spirit it is virtually impossible to correctly understand,
appreciate or even believe a Bible prophecy. Understanding must come from above
either through:
Direct
revelation, which few of us are privileged to receive, or | |
From
the Bible itself, and then only if the Holy Spirit opens our minds to
understand. |
As far as this generation is
concerned, we must look to the Bible to interpret itself: for none of us
can compare with the prophets of old who had direct revelation.
Bearing these basic facts in mind, we will now
seek to solve the mystery of the Mark of the Beast by comparing Scripture
with Scripture. When we do this we see that Yahweh also places His Name
(His seal) in the foreheads of those who follow Him.
Rev.
7:2: |
And I saw another
angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God:
and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to
hurt the earth and the sea, |
Rev.14:1:
|
And I looked, and, lo,
a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four
thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads. |
After examining these verses about Yahweh's name, one cannot fail to see
a similarity with those verses containing those two clues about the Beast's
Mark or name. For here in this prophecy we are given a preview of two
groups of people.
In other words, the Mark of
the Beast and the Seal of God are both names and are both
placed in the foreheads of the people who receive them. Here we can
clearly see that the Beast is attempting to duplicate or counterfeit
the Almighty's programme by similarly inscribing his mark, his name
in people's foreheads. This passion to counterfeit the Almighty is a typical
Satanic trait: for he never tires of counterfeiting the handiwork of God: not
just to be like Him - which would be admirable - but to replace God. Beware of
spiritual counterfeits which are substitutes of the genuine article.
These facts leads us to the conclusion that the Beast's
Mark is simply a counterfeit or substitute of Yahweh's signature and seal.
It follows that any information which we obtain concerning the Seal and Signature
of Yahweh will obviously help us decipher the mystery of the Mark of the
Beast.
According to the dictionary,
the words 'sign,' 'seal,' 'signature,' 'mark,' 'inscription,' etc. are
synonyms. That is, they are different words with shades of similar meaning.
Yahweh's seal, in short, is linked with His sign, His signature and His Name.
And so for that matter is your own sign or signature. It is simply
an inscription of your own name.
Well may we now ask, "What then is the
Almighty's Sign? Is it a visible signature, mark or name that He inscribes
on the foreheads of His people?" Obviously not, for this is a symbolic
prophecy and, besides, Yahweh's law expressly forbids us making or receiving any
marks on our bodies. (Lev.19:28) The Most High would hardly, therefore, expect
His servants to receive a literal mark or tattoo on their
foreheads if His law expressly forbids receiving marks. Oh no, Yahweh's
signature or sign is certainly not a literal inscription or mark on the
forehead.
Well then, what is it, and what does it stand
for? Yes, what is the special sign or seal which is to be placed
in the foreheads of the servants of the LORD God of Israel? For a sign to
be worthy of the name, must of necessity manifest itself in some way. Indeed if
it does not exhibit its presence, even occasionally, it cannot justifiably be
called a sign.
And so we ask, "Is Yahweh's sign love or
generosity, speaking in tongues or wonder working power?" No, it is
none of these, admirable though they may be. These signs and phenomena, in fact,
are found in almost every society known to man - pagan and otherwise. They
certainly are in no way peculiar to the servants of the God of Israel. Yahweh's
signature or sign is very different from all these things, and because of its
strangely unique nature we will allow the Scriptures to tell you what it is.
Exodus
31:13: |
Speak thou also unto
the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for
it is a SIGN between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may
know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. |
Ezekiel
20:12: |
Moreover also I
gave them my sabbaths, to be a SIGN between me and them, that they might
know that I am the LORD that sanctify them. |
Ezekiel
20:20: |
And hallow my
sabbaths; and they shall be a SIGN between me and you, that ye may know
that I am the LORD your God. |
And there you have it.
The Sabbath days in the Almightys law are His
signature, the special identifying SIGN He places on His people to signal to the
universe that they are His: and that He has set them apart to sanctify them.
We are also told in Isaiah 8:16
that the God of Israel seals His people with His Law.
Bind
up the testimony, SEAL THE LAW among my disciples.
In other words, the Almighty seals His people with obedience.
Obedience, incidentally, is doing what the Most High commands, following in His
steps, endeavouring to behave like Him. Click here
for more about the Almighty's Seal.
The Scriptures tell us that
they are inscribed in the believer's 'forehead' meaning his/her 'mind.'
Hebrews
8:10: |
For this is the
covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith
the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their
hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
|
Deut.
6:8: |
And thou shalt bind
them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between
thine eyes. |
Exodus
13:9: |
And it (the
Feast of Unleavened Bread) shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine
hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD's law may be in
thy mouth. |
According to these Scriptures, the Almighty's Seal is His law and His
Signature is defined as being the Sabbath days in His law. These are
inscribed in the believer's forehead, his mind. Yes, believe it or not,
Yahweh's Sabbath days constitute His signature, His sign: and like Himself they
cannot be changed or done away with.
Do you know what the Almighty's
Sabbaths are? Can you turn to the Scriptures and identify the Sabbath days of
the Holy One of Israel?
The answer is: they are the seventh day of the
week (Saturday) and the seven annual Sabbaths mentioned in Leviticus chapter 23.
(The Feasts of Unleavened
Bread, Pentecost,
Trumpets,
the Day
of Atonement and the Feast
of Tabernacles) These Sabbath days are the sacred memorials of Yahweh's
finest and greatest achievements in the Plan of Salvation. They are the divinely
appointed anniversaries of His work of creation, redemption and sanctification.
They represent the Almighty's signature and as part of His holy law are
scheduled to be inscribed in the very minds of his true followers. This means
that they will be understood, accepted, appreciated, remembered and observed for
all time by the true children of the Most High.
In short, the Almighty is going to seal and sign
His people with OBEDIENCE, with HOLINESS. When that event occurs, we
will bear His Name in our minds and actions: which means we will perfectly
reflect our heavenly Father’s holy character.
Why are these Sabbath days so important? They are
important because they are a declaration of faith in the Person, the character,
the handiwork and the sanctifying power of Yahweh the Almighty God of the
Hebrews, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel. In modern terms the Sabbath
days listed in Leviticus 23 are the Eternal's 'trade mark,' 'His signet,'
'His signature,' 'His company seal,' 'His badge,' the 'symbol of His presence,'
'His Name:' and when they are faithfully remembered, kept in mind, (in the
forehead) by a believer, they signal to the universe that person is Yahweh’s
property and that He is even now impressing His Name upon that person's soul.
Isaiah
8:16: |
Bind up the
testimony, seal the law among by disciples. |
Hebrews
10:16: |
This is the covenant
that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put
my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them. |
Now do you understand? Have you begun to grasp the awesome, spiritual
significance of Yahweh's Law; and especially the Sabbath days in His
law? In truth, in very truth, they alone constitute the Almighty's Signature
which He inscribes upon the minds of believer's; which week by week and feast by
feast strikingly sets them apart from all the peoples of this world.
Yes, the Eternal's unchanging signature is the
seventh day Sabbath (Saturday) and the seven annual Sabbaths in the Sacred
Calendar. Take these Sabbath days away, remove them from the environment of
worship and you will lose the one and only identifying sign that distinguishes
the servants of the God of Israel, from the rest of humanity. That is
a fact, a fact which will increasingly amaze you the more you consider it.
Now that you know what Yahweh's Sign is, it only
remains for us to decipher the Mark of the Beast; bearing in mind that it
must be some clever substitute or forgery of the Almighty's Sign. To do
this we will again rely on the Scriptures to direct us to the answer.
Most students of Bible prophecy
will allow that the Beast
of Revelation 13 and the Little Horn of Daniel 7 are one and the
same power. Compare these two characters and you will see that they both came to
the fore in the last days. They both blaspheme God and persecute His people;
both continue for a period of three and a half years and both are finally
destroyed by the Saviour at His return to earth. In other words, they are the
same power.
Paul's prophecy of the Lawless One, the Man
of Sin is also another eye opening commentary on this same satanic power who
will arise in the last days to oppose Yahweh and his law. (2 Thess. 2:1-2)
You will notice in this chapter how the Apostle
Paul describes the activities of the Antichrist as "lawlessness."
He calls him the "Man of Sin," (verse 3) the "mystery
of iniquity" (verse 7).
What is sin? What is iniquity? According to the
Scriptures, sin is Lawlessness.
Sin is breaking one or more of God's commandments. Sin is an expression of
Satan's character and in its advanced stages it always manifests itself in a
self-deluding enmity and rejection of Yahwehs law. The Bible states plainly:
1
John 3:4: |
Sin is the
transgression of the law. |
The 'Man of Sin', as the term implies, is an antagonist of divine law. He
absolutely detests the Almighty's law and every commandment in it. He not only
breaks Yahweh's law, but his main objective is to lead others into breaking it,
into disobedience, into sin. That's why he's called the 'Man of Sin.'
According to the prophet Daniel (chapter 7:25)
the main thrust of the Beast's hatred is directed against the divine commandment
dealing with sacred times. And this can only mean the Sabbath
commandment, which alone deals with the element of time.
Daniel
7:25: |
And he(the little
horn) shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out
the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws:
and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the
dividing of time. |
The only laws in Scripture which deal with the
element of 'time' are the Sabbath laws of the Most High. These
laws are directy linked with the Feast days in the sacred calendar. The Little
horn vainly imagines that he can change Jehovah's law.
From this it becomes evident
that the Man of Sin, the Antichrist, the Little Horn power, the Beast
will vainly imagine that he can somehow change the Sabbath days of the Almighty
God and replace them with days of his choosing - counterfeit sabbaths! And that
dear reader is exactly what the Antichrist has tried to do. He has tried to set
aside the sacred Sabbaths of the Most High by popularising numerous festivals of
his own choice. In other words, he has dared to think that he could change
the commandment concerning time in Yahweh's law. delete the Signature of the
Almighty, by somehow replacing it with his own sign, his Mark!
"But," you ask, "What is his
Mark?" Yes, what is the signature or Mark of the Beast?
There is only one Bible-based answer to that
question and it presents itself as the only conclusion that the foregoing facts
allow; and that one inescapable conclusion is this:
That as the true weekly Sabbath of Saturday
and the seven annual Feast Days in the sacred calendar constitute the Sign of
Yahweh the Almighty God of Israel, then the Mark of the Beast, the Lawless One,
the one who vainly thinks that he can change the Sabbath days in God's law, must
by process of simple deduction be the bogus sabbath of Sunday and all the other
pagan festivals which are currently posing as Christian Holy Days: (Sunday,
Ash Wednesday, Easter,
Whitsun, Hallowe'en, and Christmas)
These popular holidays are certainly not
sanctified by the Almighty: and no where in the Scriptures are we commanded to
keep them. They are pagan festivals in disguise. They originated with the
heathen centuries before the Christian era and were incorporated into the
Christian calendar long after the Saviour’s resurrection. Certainly they now
have a few praiseworthy principles veneered onto their make up, and this has
deluded millions of genuine Christians into accepting them as the true holy days
of God; but deep down in substance and effect they are the same old festivals of
heathenism that Yahweh abhors: festivals of: fertility, sexual licence
and demon worship.
In short, the popular holidays of Sunday,
Easter and Christmas are forgeries of Yahweh's Signature. They represent the
Antichrist's futile and presumptuous attempt to meddle with the calendar of the
Almighty God!
The Bible says of the "Little Horn"
power that he would "think to change the times of Sacred Feasts and holy
days and the law;" that "calendar and ordinance he shall think
to set aside."
Oh how true this has proved to be. The Antichrist
has already attempted to do just that. But his attempted forgery has been
exposed. Throughout the world people are becoming increasingly aware that the
festivals of Christendom are nothing more than pagan festivals in disguise.
In the light of these facts, therefore, we cannot
help but conclude: that the bogus religious festivals (Sunday, Christmas,
Easter etc.) are in reality the Signature of Satan, the Mark of the Beast!
How they originated and came to be adopted by
most of the churches is a study in itself, a study you may wish to pursue in the
nearest reference library. Indeed, it is now common knowledge that these
festivals are inherently pagan, that they existed long before the Christian era
and were only introduced into the Christian worship several centuries after the
resurrection of our Saviour. But what is not generally known is that they
represent the Lawless One's efforts to change the Sabbath and Festival
commandments in Yahweh's law and that they constitute the Mark of the Beast.
Comparatively few know this fact.
In view of this, it becomes obvious that there
can be no room in the church for bunny rabbits, Easter eggs, hot-cross buns,
ghost masks, mistletoe and Christmas trees. These heathen symbols and especially
the observance of the festivals they adorn accompany, must be discontinued by
all true believers who wish to please the LORD God of Israel. Why?
Because once they are recognised for what they
are, then a person's continued use of them can only mean that he/she is unmoved
by the severity of God's warning and has virtually begun to reject the Father's
Name.
And now, dear reader you are
obliged to choose:
Between
the genuine and the counterfeit, | |
Between
the divinely appointed Sabbaths of the Almighty and the festivals of Satan;
the pagan festivals he has deluded most of mankind into accepting as the
genuine holy days of God. | |
Between
the Signature of Yahweh the Holy One of Israel and the Mark of the
Beast! |
The answer is: No one has the
Mark of the Beast at this moment in time (December 1999). All we are doing now
is identifying what the mark is. But when the Antichrist again makes his
appearance on the world scene, then every soul on earth will be compelled to
choose between Yahweh's signature and the Beast's Mark. It is at that time,
when those who refuse the mark are not allowed to buy and sell, then - and
then only - will we be able to say who has the Mark of the Beast. But at the
moment, no one has the Mark of the Beast. All we are doing in this article is
identifying what the Mark is and what the punishment will be for those who
knowingly accept it.
However, your present reaction to this message
about the
You now know what the Mark of the Beast is, and
with that knowledge comes the added responsibility to obey God's commandments.
In your own interests, therefore, you should carefully consider the conditions
and consequences this article has brought to your attention, before making a
choice. And do not needlessly delay; for time is short and the patience of the
God of Israel has almost run out. The spirit of the Lawless One, the Antichrist,
is already at work deceiving millions of Christians into thinking that Yahweh's
law, the irrevocable constitution of the mighty universe, is obsolete. Beware of
that subtle and dangerous deception: for it has already tricked millions of
Christians into sin.
The Scriptures abound with examples of how the
servants of the Most High were tested on the matter of obedience. The
longest Psalm in the Bible (Psalm 119) extols obedience in virtually
every verse. In the Sermon on the Mount the Saviour magnifies obedience
to a degree few, if any, individuals had previously imagined. The Saviour's
advice concerning the Commandments was as follows:
Matthew
19: |
16: And, behold, one
came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I
may have eternal life? |
So dear to His heart are His Sabbath commandments that this fearsome punishment
will be meted out to those who knowingly and wilfully break them.
Rev.14:9:
|
And the third angel
followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and
his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, |
When the Antichrist arrives on the world scene, people will be compelled to
receive his mark. If you refuse it, you will not be allowed to buy and sell;
no matter where on earth you live. But if you accept it, you will drink of the
wine of the wrath of God. And that is why it is so important that you really
understand - in advance - what the Mark of the Beast is. If you study
this paper over and over again, you will see how clearly it identifies the
deadly Mark of the Beast.
The God of Israel is well able
to miraculously nourish and protect His people when they are expelled from human
society for seeking to obey Him. Indeed, He has a plan to care for them in the
same way as He looked after ancient Israel for in the wilderness of Sinai. In
that wild and barren desert Yahweh fed His people for 40 years, much to
the astonishment of all the surrounding nations. In Ezekiel 20:35 and
Revelations chapter 12 you will read about a similar plan of 3½ years: when He
will miraculously feed and shelter His people in the 'wilderness of the
people'. To be sure some believers will be martyred when the Antichrist
arrives on the world scene. But the whole church will certainly not be wiped
out. Many, many obedient souls will be divinely protected as that prophecy
clearly indicates. See SBS articles entitled The
Coming Exodus and The
Time of trouble for information about this event.
The book of Revelation, awesome though it is,
ends with a blissful picture of Yahweh's obedient people entering the New
Jerusalem to live eternally with Him and His Son who sacrificed his life on
Calvary to redeem us.
Rev.
22:14: |
Blessed are they
that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree
of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. |
Let no one keep you from reaching that eternal goal; because it is your legal
right to be there. Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) has already paid the
price for you to enter. Put your faith in him; express that faith in obedience -
and live for all time. That is the message of all Scripture.

nature you may be interested in further study. The following articles may

The Mark of the Beast
"He (The Beast) forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark in his right hand or in his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name." The Book of the Revelation to John, Chapter 13, Verse 16-17.
The Number of the Beast
"Let he that has wisdom count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666." The Book of The Revelation to John, Chapter 13, Verse 18.
The Number 666 is so pervasive in direct use and thoughtful calculation as to approach mathmatical impossibility for it to be a mere coincidence. We would be at a loss for where to begin, were it not for the previous Bible verses.
MasterCard Corps' official policy is to replace money. We shiver at the concept of any card as our master, but to them it is a corporate goal.
VISA Card is also "interesting" to say the least. If you look at a VISA credit card you see three previous world empires represented. "VI" is the number 6 in the Roman numerals, "S" is the Stigma in the Greek culture whose value is 6, and lastly the "A" in the Babylonian culture is 6 ... i.e, VISA = 666! We are sure they didn't plan it that way. This whole thing is MUCH MUCH bigger than they are. It is only a sign of the nature and origin of their success.
1998 divided by 3 = 666. That's this year. When was the last time that happened? Never before...
2000 divided by 3 = 666.666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666.............. on into forever.... That's year after next... When was the last time that happened? Again, never before....
We are told that the ancient Chaldeans, during the time of the Babylonian Empire when the prophetic Book of Daniel was written, had a numerological technique that can be applied to the english alphabet today. In that system, each succeeding letter of the alphabet was equal to 6 more than the one before it. In our system A would equal 6, B would equal 12, etc. as shown in the chart below...

So the $666 question is: What words in english add up to 666? I've only been able to find 4, and two of those were from combining two other words. You see, no words in english with 7 or less letters seem to add up to 666 at all. The very first english word that equals 666 is COMPUTER. The next one I can find is KISSINGER. The third, a combo word, is NUCLEAR HELL. The fourth is FEDERAL RESERVE. As Spock would say, "Interesting!"

One of the newest entries we have found is "NEW YORK" = 666, the obvious implication being that NEW YORK is the home of the United Nations and the New World Order.
Last but not least, it has been pointed out that "US OF AMERICA" = 666. As a proud American, I never in my wildest dreams thought the good old USA could be one of the major bad guys in the coming reign of the Anti-Christ. But over the last few years actions by the federal government too numerous to name here have completely changed my mind about that. The fact that "US OF AMERICA" = 666 comes as no suprise to me...
Oops. Found another one this New Year's Eve just 2 hours before 1998. I have for years used SSNUMBER as a variable name to hold Social Security Numbers in many programs I have written. Guess what? You guessed it. SSNUMBER = 666 too. It's a bit more of stretch than the other words and phrases, but is it really all that far out?
You can try out these and other words and phrases for yourself easily thank to Terry Stough and his great phrase calculator program. Most words and phrases work best if you use all capital letters and skip the spaces, but feel free to try it any way you like.
Right now you are probably saying "Wait a Minute! How does FEDERAL RESERVE = 666?"
That is a very good question. Remember, the Bible says "Let he that has wisdom count (i.e. calculate) the number of the beast." If you looked closely at FEDERAL RESERVE you'll see it equals 858, and I deduct 192 to get 666. Where does the 192 come from? Because of the way the computer math works out, the space between the words actually deducts 192 from the total, yielding the end result 666. We find it quite interesting that it took a computer to figure out that the number of the Federal Reserve is 666, not that we think anyone will be suprised... 8-)
