Download or read book The Beast His Image and 666 written by Donald Werner and published by . This book was released on 2022-03-28 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation 14:11 (NKJV). "And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name". The mark, or the number of his name is 666. According to the Book of the Revelation we are all worshipers, and when we understand what worship really is, there's no denying that we all worship, even the atheist. And, interesting enough, according to the way YHVH God sees it, there are only two objects of worships: either we worship YHVH God, or we are worshiping the Beast and (or) his image. If we worship YHVH God we will receive His seal on our foreheads. If we don't worship YHVH God, we are in effect worshiping the beast, and (or) his image, and we will receive his mark '666'. The beast first appeared to humans in the Garden of Eden, in the form of a serpent. There the cunning beast deceived Eve and caused her and Adam to spurn YHVH's divine authority and eat the forbidden fruit. That same deceptive message is being preached and taught by the 'image of the beast' today and it is causing millions to worship the beast. Who would ever worship the beast and his (or) image? You would be surprised how many hundreds of millions of people, including Christians, unknowingly worship the beast, and I know that's hard to believe, but you will understand when I explain what true worship is. Who is the Beast? Who is His image? What is their deceptive message? What is 666 and what is it for? How does the Church actually promote the Beast's message? How do people unknowingly worship the beast? What is true worship? These questions and many more will be answered in this book. So, put your seat belt on, lower your defenses by setting aside manmade creeds and church doctrines, and open your mind to Jesus' words, and then hang on for a ride that will change your life now, as well as your eternal life.

Download or read book The Revelation of 666 Man and Image written by Leticia Verdin and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the biggest mysteries in Christianity is the meaning of the number 666. It refers to man and the beast. But how? And who gave it that meaning? In her book, The Revelation of 666 Man and Image, author Leticia “Lee” Verdin reveals the ultimate image created by man. There is no other image that can surpass 666 as 666 was made in the image of man, who was made in the image of God. Created in the image of God, 666 can choose to mirror the Creator in deed, but the man-created image was set up in honor of the beast. Man can choose to worship and serve God or to worship and serve the beast. It’s a spiritual matter of life or death. In the insightful and thought-provoking The Revelation of 666 Man and Image, Verdin details the importance of knowing more about the relationship between God and Satan. You will also learn how Satan uses his wiles to corrupt us and take our souls. Knowledge can provide the tools necessary to defeating the beast.

Download or read book Understanding End Times Prophecy written by Paul Benware and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

Download or read book Recommendation 666 written by Herbert Peters and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bible prophecy gives us signs of the end times. Just like road signs, they come closer together as we near the end. According to the Bible, in the last days--in a time when Israel has been restored as a nation--a 10-nation confederacy will appear on the European continent. It will be a revival of the Roman Empire. From this confederacy, one man will rise to power. He will make a seven-year agreement with Israel that he will break in three and a half years. This man is known as the Antichrist and, in some way, he will be identified with the number 666. Are You Sitting Down? What if I said that an important warning sign about the rise of the Antichrist began occurring in 1992, but it has been completely overlooked? And what if I told you that the 10 kings of Daniel and Revelation may have already been on scene since 1995, but no one has noticed? Not only that, but a powerful new office has been created that could soon belong to the Antichrist. And, it happened with Assembly Recommendation 666. Hang on, because that's exactly what I'm going to tell you.

Download or read book Rethinking Hell written by Christopher Date and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.

Download or read book The Mark of the Beast written by Godfrey Godfrey and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scriptures is full of codes which have been placed for human identification and gain. The problem often is that man does not always have the resources to unlock these codes. While acquisition of the keys to these codes is within human grasp, most men have not disposed themselves to seeking the truth of the Lord God and getting the corresponding benefit that is promised man. Much of the time, we read the genealogies of Bible characters with the lethargy of reading a very uninteresting subject. Much of the time we glance past many of these, convinced there is nothing relevant in them for the modern man. However, there is a lot to learn and to uncover in the Bible. Some of the greatest secrets and the most sought after secrets are actually cached in the supposed boring genealogies. The Scriptures is replete with numbers. Often, these numbers have overwhelming value and significance. One number that has continued to hold a mysterious grip on many, and defy explication is the number 666. There can be no doubt that numbers in the Scriptures need to be studied. Numbers are signs. A survey of signs of the Lord, easily reveal that most signs of the Lord God are revealed to the beneficiaries, being almost always the people that the signs are meant for. Thus studying a number or group of numbers should not be limited to scholastic approach. There is a need to incline or dispose oneself to the Lord for the necessary revelation. Anything short of this may lead to conjecture and wrong assumptions, which may not stand rigorous empiricism. The one Book of the Scriptures that holds information relating to the mark of the Beast is the Book of Revelation. The interesting thing about the Book of Revelation as it concerns this number is that it was never supposed to defy interpretation. It is the wisdom of the Lord God that this code be used, and it is also the understanding that the Lord God Himself gives, that can break this code of a number. Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. We can see from verse 18 just above that 666 is the number of a man. This is a bit ambiguous. Most persons have misinterpreted it to be the number of a mans identification card or credit card. When the Scriptures talks of a man in this case, it is generalizing, meaning generic man, and not a specific person. Thus we can see that the beast is actually human. In actuality, the beast is both spirit and man. It is the product of a fusion of a spirit and a human female. The product is conspicuously a man, but latently a spirit. It is man that has degenerated to a sub human level. The beast does not have the number of a beast or the attributes of a beast, but that of a man. This is because, the beast is actually human. It is redolent of the analogy of defining the Devil as a Serpent. Thus instead of saying Devil, the Scripture also uses Serpent, while we are actually dealing with a being that is not a snake. He is supposed to have been one of the best in Heaven. Serpent is only used in analogy. In the same vein, beast is only a satirical application to a man who has refused to identify with the Lord God. The Devil himself was the first beast; the beast of Eden. He came to the first people like a beast; that is a serpent. That is why he is known as the Serpent. The anti-Christ, being one with the devil comes in the image and spirit of his father, the Devil. That is why he is equally known and addressed as the Beast. The mark of the Beast is not placed on animals but on man. It is a sign which incorporates the numbers of the Living God and the number of the Devil. It is an unholy alliance, which is detested by the Lord God, and cursed. Read this book and understand without the least ambiguity, what the Mark of the Beast is really all about. You shall have your money refunded you if you have a better explanation to this and can prove it."

Download or read book Revelations written by Elaine Pagels and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A startling exploration of the history of the most controversial book of the Bible, by the bestselling author of Beyond Belief. Through the bestselling books of Elaine Pagels, thousands of readers have come to know and treasure the suppressed biblical texts known as the Gnostic Gospels. As one of the world's foremost religion scholars, she has been a pioneer in interpreting these books and illuminating their place in the early history of Christianity. Her new book, however, tackles a text that is firmly, dramatically within the New Testament canon: The Book of Revelation, the surreal apocalyptic vision of the end of the world . . . or is it? In this startling and timely book, Pagels returns The Book of Revelation to its historical origin, written as its author John of Patmos took aim at the Roman Empire after what is now known as "the Jewish War," in 66 CE. Militant Jews in Jerusalem, fired with religious fervor, waged an all-out war against Rome's occupation of Judea and their defeat resulted in the desecration of Jerusalem and its Great Temple. Pagels persuasively interprets Revelation as a scathing attack on the decadence of Rome. Soon after, however, a new sect known as "Christians" seized on John's text as a weapon against heresy and infidels of all kinds-Jews, even Christians who dissented from their increasingly rigid doctrines and hierarchies. In a time when global religious violence surges, Revelations explores how often those in power throughout history have sought to force "God's enemies" to submit or be killed. It is sure to appeal to Pagels's committed readers and bring her a whole new audience who want to understand the roots of dissent, violence, and division in the world's religions, and to appreciate the lasting appeal of this extraordinary text.

This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I saw two different news broadcasts on a CEO getting a microchip in his hand. And then the employees were next. The phrase they used on the local news at 6:00 was, the C.E.O is leading the way. "They are starting today at the top of this company starting with the C.E.O, of the company, leading the way" The blind leading the blind. I say, well, I know my Bible, and it says to let them take off your head before receiving the mark 666 in your hand. And don't let any man deceive you by any means. Well, I felt I had to get a warning out, because let's face it, not everyone reads the Bible. And I also know how sly the old devil is. So these are my words: Don't take the chip. Get yourself in a good Bible-preaching church. Get ready, stay ready, things are wrapping up according to prophecies.
