Why 666 is associated with antichrist?

Question

waow..guys! you are awesome!!!

Answer 1

I was taught that back in the day, each letter was associated with a number, and when you add up the numbers corresponding to the letters of "Nero", it added to 666. It was veiled language to refer to an emperor who persecuted Christians. It was written in code so as not to invite further scrutiny from non-christians.

The code was so good, it continues to perplex Christians to this day.

Or at least that's what I was taught.

Answer 2

"Antichrist" is a term that is used 4 times in the Bible. It is a term that means "against Christ". The contexts indicate that anyone who does not believe that Jesus is the Son of God is "antichrist".

The connection between "antichrist" and 666, which identifies the first beast of Revelation 13, is that the beast wants to be worshipped. The Bible indicated that only God is worthy of being worshipped, so anyone else that tries to place themselves in a position to be worshipped is anti-christ.

That was Lucifer's problem, he wanted to be better than God, but that is not possible. By this, he is denying that God is the ruler of the universe. He is the original anti-christ, and the people that he decieves into believing that God does not exist or that Jesus is not the Son of God have the character (or spirit) of Satan the anti-christ.

Answer 3

Well, according to a sermon I heard recently. The number 6 is associated with man. It is man's number and 3 is the number for deity. Therefore, 666 is man saying he is God. Number have meanings in the Bible.
Plus it says in Revelation 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
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.
Hope this answers your question.

Answer 4

because the number 6 represents the number of a man..God created man on the 6th day...then remember that we are created in the image of God who is 1 God in a triune makeup..we are body sould and spirit..God is Father Son and Holy Ghost

Also this is the number of the anti-Christ who is an imitator of Christ...Revelations 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...God bless

Answer 5

It comes from the Holy Word of God (Bible), in Revelation chapter 13, verse 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.".

Answer 6

Actually the Anti-Christ is against Jesus's Teachings; haven't these denominations fought against the Sabbath, Sabbath Feasts, Clean and Unclean Meats and etc. They believe these are no longer valid; but Jesus and the Apostles kept them.

(REV.13:18) on the Pope's Crown (tiara) are these letters: VICARIUS FILII DEI; what do they signify? OUR SUNDAY VISITOR, (CATHOLIC WEEKLY) BUREAU OF INFORMATION," HUNTINGTON, IND., APRIL 18, 1915.
ROMAN NUMERALS FOR THESE LETTERS ARE: V=5; I=1; C=100; X=10; U=5; D=500; L=50 = THEY ADD UP TO 666.

*Now we have alot of information about the beast; to start out with; we should find out (2THESS.2:4) "who claims to be God" and is "worshipped"?
Let's see; this church (Rev.17:9)"sits on 7 hills" in Rome. It wears (REV.17:4)"purple and scarlet". It is a (REV.17:5)"mother church", so it has daughters or other churches following her. It will think (DAN.7:25)"to change times and laws." GENERAL CATHOLIC CATECHISM
It even has casted "all the truth to the ground" = Dan.8:12
"All the world has followed it" = Rev.13:12-15
*It had a(REV.13:1-3)deadly wound that was healed.
THE CATHOLIC ADVOCATE (AUSTRALIA), APRIL 18,1929.
FRONT PG. OF S.F. CHRONICLE WITH HEADLINE "HEAL WOUND OF MANY YEARS"; FEB.12,1929)

*Daniel 2:32,38; 7:4; 3:1 "Head of Gold" = Lion = Babylon = King Nebuchadnezzar
*Daniel 2:32: 7:5: 5:25-28; 6:28; 8:20 "Breast and Arms of Silver" = Bear = Medo-Persia = King Darius & Cyrus
*Daniel 2:32; 7:6: 8:21 "Belly and thighs of brass" = Leopard = Greece = Alexander the Great
*Daniel 2:33; 7:7,8,24,25: 8:9,12 "Legs of Iron" = Dreadful Beast = Rome
*Daniel 2:33 "Feet part of iron and part of clay" = Divided Empire

**Now the 10 horns represents kings or kingdoms and 1 comes up among the them and destroys (DANIEL 7:8,23,24)three. THE 10 HORNS ARE POLITICAL: ANGLO-SAXONS, FRANKS, ALAMMI, OSTROGOTHS, LOMBARD, SUEVI, BURGUNDIANS, VISIGOTHS, VANDALS, HERULI, AND THEN A LITTLE HORN COMES UPON THE SCENE THAT IS RELIGIOUS-POLITICAL THAT HAS DESTROYED THE HERULI, VANDALS AND OSTROGOTHS. NOW DETERMINING WHO THE HORN IS: A.C. FLICK, THE RISE OF THE MEDIAEVAL CHURCH. (PUTNAM'S 1909 ED.)PP.148-149.
*FROM ALL THE CLUES; WE KNOW IT'S THE ROMAN EMPIRE (REV.17:4; COMPARE TO MATT.27:28 AND MARK 15:17

ACTUALLY THE MARK OF THE BEAST IS WHAT PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND! IT'S VERY SIMPLE REALLY; YOU HAVE TO DO THE OPPOSITE OF IT.
THE OPPOSITE OF THE MARK IS THE "SEAL OF GOD" WHICH IS IN THE 4TH COMMANDMENT(EXOD.20:8-11; REV.14:7). NOW LOOK WHAT REV.7:2-3 SAYS "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. SAYING, HURT NOT THE EARTH, NEITHER THE SEA, NOR THE TREES, TILL WE HAVE SEALED THE SERVANTS OF OUR GOD IN THEIR FOREHEADS."
SO IF YOU KEEP SATURDAY HOLY(JN.4:22-24) AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST FAITH; YOU WILL HAVE THE(REV.14:12) "SEAL OF GOD".
BUT IF YOU DON'T KEEP HIS DAY(MARK) AND FOLLOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH(IMAGE); HE WILL GIVE YOU THIS(REV.14:9-11).

REALLY HIS IMAGE IS GOING TO COME ALIVE! WHEN HE PUTS CHURCH AND STATE TOGETHER. HERE'S JUST A PIECE OF IT IN--"POPE'S DREAM OF HEALING CHRISTIAN RIFT STILL A DISTANT GLIMMER" IN ENTERPRISE RECORD DATED: SUNDAY JUNE 12, 2005.

TO BE SUCH MEANS "AND THE BEAST WAS TAKEN, AND WITH HIM THE FALSE PROPHET THAT WROUGHT MIRACLES BEFORE HIM, WITH WHICH HE DECEIVED THEM THAT HAD RECEIVED THE MARK OF THE BEAST, AND THEM THAT WORSHIPPED HIS IMAGE. THESE BOTH WERE CAST ALIVE INTO A LAKE OF FIRE BURNING WITH BRIMSTONE."--REV.19:20

THE SYSTEM IS MADE UP OF:

TRUE CHRISTIANITY VS. FALSE CHRISTIANITY
FOLLOWING JESUS(COL.2:6) OR NOT FOLLOWING JESUS(PHIL.2:21).
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
