1 | Explain the mark in Rev 13 | Rev 13:15 | following him | 128442 | ||
Greetings oldeek: I would agree mostly with what EdB says. Receiving mark on our bodies is becoming so common that we wouldn't think twice about putting another one on. And it will not be something that sneeks up on us. The mark has to be some physical thing. It may not be a tatoo though. It may be a micro-chip implanted under the skin there are many who believe this; Although I see it only as a possiblity. The main thing is that it is something physical (I have heard one theory that it is realy only a spiritual thing) because without it you will not be able to buy or sell anything. So it needs to be something that can be verified that you have. It will be something that the beast initiates as possibly a special decree that the government impliments. Many numbers represent things scripturally 3 represent the triune God 7 represent completeness 12 probable represents something although I dont know what it is but there are 12 tribes of Israel, 12 desciples, etc 6 represents man. 666 is the number of the beast and like EdB said there are many theories as to who this number represents. It almost seems you can make any name come out to be 666 depending on how you do the math. In order to really get a better idea of who this will be (Although all ideas will probably be guesses until he actually shows up) you must look at all the other descriptions of him in the Bible and take it all together. Oh by the way there is a partial physical description of him in the Old Testament. Grace and mercy to you |

An individual who has looked at a copy of an ancient manuscript of Revelationhas noted that the characters that are translated 666 actually look like the Islamic symbol for allah. He suggests that the translators keyed off the word number in their efforts here rather than considering number as a people group, which imo fits quite nicely with identifying Islam as the beast of Revelation - Islam specifically denies the deity of Jesus Christ (antichrist). Islam fits in other ways also. Don't be deceived, it is not a religion of peace and we do not worship the same God, allah is not Jehovah! | ||||||
