This is Part 5 of 6 of -
666 The mark of the beast, what does it mean?In the Scriptures, certain numbers have symbolic significance. The number seven, for example, is often used to symbolize that which is complete, or perfect, in the so-called God's eyes.
When i was little, My religion teacher told us about God's creative week comprises seven days, or extended time periods, during which God completely accomplishes his creative purpose regarding the earth.
(Genesis 1:3 - 2:3)The so-called God's "sayings" are like silver that has been "clarified seven times," thus
Perfectly refined.
(Psalm 12:6; Proverbs 30:5, 6)The leper Naaman was told to bathe seven times in the Jordan River, after which he was
completely healed.
(2 kings 5:10, 14)What the fuck... are these bible stories true? oh well.. anyway,
Six is one short of Seven. Would it not be a fitting symbol of something imperfect, or defective, in the so called-God's eyes? Yes, indeed!
(1 Chronicles 20:6, 7) Moreover, six repeated three times, as 666, Powerfully stresses that imperfection. That this is the correct view is supported by the fact that 666 is "a human number," and the number 666 itself all point to one unmistakable conclusion-gross shortcoming and failure in the eyes of the so-called God.
The portrayal of the beast's deficiencies calls to mind what was said about King belshazzar of ancient Babylon. Through Daniel, the so called-God said to that ruler: "You have been weighed in the balances and have been found deficient." That very night, Belshazzar was killed, and the mighty Babylonian Empire fell.
(Daniel 5:27, 30)Likewise, the so called-God's judgement of the political beast and those with its mark spells the end of that entity and its supporters. In this instance, however, the so called-God will eradicate not just one political system but every vestige of human rule.
(Daniel 2:44; Revelation 19:19, 20)How important, therefore, that we avoid having the deadly mark of the beast!
I Dont have the mark of the beast, but i dont believe and put my trust to an invisible man.
