Senator (now also President Elect) Barack Obama<\/p>\n
COGwriter<\/a><\/p>\n Someone sent me an email suggesting that Barack Obama may be the one the Bible refers to with the number 666.\u00a0 Here is some of what that email stated:<\/p>\n 666<\/span>.\u00a0 Revelation 13:18 says “the number of the Beast … is the number of a man and his number is six hundred threescore and six.”\u00a0 6+6+6=18, the number of letters in Barack Hussein Obama, whose Chicago power base includes the\u00a060606 zip code. Of course, Barack Obama is NOT 666 (nor is he the final Antichrist, see Prophecies of Barack Obama?<\/a>).<\/p>\n Why not?<\/p>\n First of all, his name does NOT add up to six hundred, sixty and six.<\/p>\n Secondly, a winning lottery number is not proof.\u00a0 Nor is the zip code of Chicago at all relevant.<\/p>\n But the subject of 666 is important and relevant.<\/p>\n LCG’s late John Ogwyn wrote this about the meaning and origins of 666:<\/p>\n Scarcely any prophetic subject has elicited more conjecture and speculation than the “mark of the Beast.” In addition to a “mark,” Revelation 13 also mentions an “image” of the Beast as well as the mysterious “number of his name”\u2014666…<\/p>\n Since the Roman Empire is the Beast described by John in Revelation 13 and Revelation 17, the “mark” is a brand or mark of the Roman Empire. The “image” of the Beast must be something modeled or patterned after the Roman Empire.<\/p>\n Before going further, notice that Revelation 13 mentions a second “beast” with an earthly, not heavenly, origin (v. 11). It outwardly masquerades as Christian, seeking to be identified with Christ, the Lamb of God (cf. John 1:29) but receives its power from the devil, that old dragon (Revelation 12:9). In prophecy, horns are used to represent rulership or authority, and this creature is pictured with two horns. Revelation 13:12 reveals that this second beast insists that all give their allegiance and loyalty to the Holy Roman Empire, the beast whose deadly wound was healed (v. 12). This second beast is described as performing great miracles, which will deceive humanity (vv. 13\u201314). In Matthew 24:24, Christ prophesied of “false Christs” who will deceive all but the very elect…<\/p>\n The earliest proposed solution to the meaning of 666 is a tradition attributed to Polycarp, the disciple of the same Apostle John who wrote Revelation. This tradition is preserved in the second century writings of Irenaeus. The number 666 is “\u2026contained in the Greek letters of Lateinos (L=30; A=1; T=300; E,=5; I=10; N=50; O=70; S=200)” (Commentary on the Whole Bible, Jamieson, Fausset and Brown<\/em>). Lateinos is a Greek term referring to the Romans. Interestingly, the Greek expression meaning “the Latin kingdom” (h Latine Basileia) also has a numeric value of 666. Greek writers commonly referred to the Roman Empire in this way. The book of Revelation was originally written in Greek, as it was written to Greek-speaking churches in ancient Asia Minor…<\/p>\n The founder of ancient Rome was Romulus, from whose name Rome and Roman are derived. The Latin name Romvlvs is written in Hebrew as Romiith. In the Hebrew language this also adds up to 666 (resh=200, vau=6, mem=40, yod=10, yod=10, tau=400). Thus, in both Greek and Hebrew, the two languages of the Bible, the number 666 is stamped upon the kingdom that derived from Rome (Ogwyn J. The Beast of Revelation: Myth, Metaphor or Soon-Coming Reality?<\/a>).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Hence, LCG teaches that 666 represents a civil Roman leader\/kingdom (scripturally referred to as “the beast”) who will maintain a religious alliance.<\/p>\n And that is that 666 represents those that follow forms of false Christianity–but also symbolizes the beast–the final leader of the Holy Roman Empire who will be ultimately influenced by the Vatican (by way of a demon-influenced individual who the Bible calls the false prophet, Revelation 16:13, and who is probably an “antipope” in the sense that even Roman Catholics<\/a> would consider a demon-influenced pontiff an antipope).<\/p>\n Specifically 666 is the number of the first beast in Revelation 13 as distinguished from the Antichrist<\/a>, who is the second, the two-horned beast, in the same chapter. And as Revelation 13 shows, the two-horned beast works with, and promotes, the seven-headed (and ten-horned) first beast in that chapter.<\/p>\n Perhaps I should add emphasize that the two-horned beast (also known as the false prophet or the final Antichrist) is mainly a religious, not a military leader–the military leader’s empire is “666.”<\/p>\n UPDATE 01\/20\/2013 Want to learn more than can be put into a post?\u00a0 The Barack Obama Administration has already began to fulfill at least a dozen predictions from my 2009 book\u00a02012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect<\/a>.\u00a0 I have now greatly expanded my research on prophecies associated with Barack Obama and now have a new book available for only US$9.98.\u00a0 It is titled\u00a0Barack Obama, Prophecy, and the Destruction of the United States-Second Edition for Second Obama Term<\/a> This is a 160 page book for people truly interested in prophecies related to Barack Obama and what will happen to the United States.<\/p>\n WANT AN ELECTRONIC VERSION?\u00a0\u00a0Barack Obama, Prophecy, and the Destruction of the United States-Second Term-Amazon Kindle edition.<\/a> This electronic version is available for only US$2.99.
