What does 666 have to do with Satan? Detailed answers please? :]?

Answer 1

the number itself is not bad, it just represents his number. oh and if u add all the number on things the pope wears (look in Desire of Ages) you can see a chart of things that add up to 666. certain words. like Vicarius Filii Dei which if u add up the letter/roman numerals, it add up to 666 and there are more

but all the people here are stupid and when i say something that is right, it bothers their souls so they vote negative on me. but what can i say, the masses are asses and are stupid.

Answer 2

The main passage in the Bible that mentions the "mark of the beast" is Revelation 13:15-18. Other references can be found in Revelation 14:9,11; 15:2; 16:2; 19:20; 20:4. This mark acts as a "seal" for the followers of antichrist and the false prophet (the spokesperson for the antichrist). The false prophet (the second beast) is the one who causes people to take this mark. The mark is literally placed in the hand or forehead, and is not simply a card someone carries.

The recent breakthroughs in medical implant chip technologies have increased interest in the "mark of the beast" spoken of in Revelation chapter 13. Here are some very interesting articles on the recent technological developments:

It is likely that the technology we are seeing today represents the beginning stages of what may eventually be used as the "mark of the beast."

It is important for us to realize that a medical implant chip is not the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast will be something given only to those who worship the antichrist. Having a medical or financial microchip inserted into your right hand or forehead is not the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast will be an end times "mark" required by the antichrist to buy or sell and will be given only to those who worship the antichrist.

Many good expositors of Revelation have differed widely as to what exactly the mark of the beast is. Besides the "ID card" view, others have speculated that it is a microchip, a barcode that is tattooed into the skin, or simply a mark that identifies someone as being faithful to the antichrist's kingdom. This last view requires the least speculation, since it does not add any more information to what the Bible gives us. In other words, any of these things are possible, but at the same time they are all speculations, so we will just have to see how it turns out. We shouldn't spend a lot of time speculating on the details that go further than the Bible goes.

The meaning of 666 is a mystery as well. Recently, many people speculated that there was a connection to June 6, 2006—06/06/06. However, in Revelation chapter 13, the number 666 identifies a person, not a date. Revelation 13:18 tells us, "This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666." Somehow, the number 666 will identify the antichrist. For centuries Bible interpreters have been trying to identify certain individuals with 666. Nothing is conclusive. That is why Revelation 13:18 says the number requires wisdom. When the antichrist is revealed (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4), it will be clear who he is and how the number 666 identifies him.

Answer 3

Not a whole lot. In numerology, 6 is the number of man, and 3 is the number of God. So 666 is an image of man making himself God. It was also mentioned in Revelation as the number of the Antichrist. Caesar Neron calculates into 666 usnig the old 'letters=numbers' standard.

But Satan? Not really involved other than peripherally, along with that fruit from the Tree of Knowledge.

Answer 4

Jesus Christ gave the readers of Revelation two warnings in chapter 13. In verse 9, he said that we needed to listen with our spiritual ears to hear the meaning. Verse 18 … calls for wisdom so we can calculate the number. We need to use wisdom and insight from the Holy Spirit to understand the meaning of the mark of the beast. If we just read the words, we won’t comprehend the true spiritual meaning.The Antichrist and the governments will use 666 to identify the people in the world. This will put fearful pressure on Christians and cause much suffering....

We look at the number six … for it is man’s number. Seven gives us the symbol for perfection and the creation of God.God created man on the sixth day, or one day less than perfection. John says we need wisdom to understand how to … calculate the number of the beast. The word count (psephizo) means “to compute or to calculate.”[i] We calculate the number 666 by multi­plying 10 × 10 × 6 + 10 × 6 + 6 = six hundred plus sixty plus six, or 666.

The Lord gives wisdom to understand the symbols of the Bible. Six gives us the number of man. Six times ten times ten tells us that the number of man is complete or squared. The number 666 simply points to a symbolic mark given to men, women, and children of the world who don’t follow Christ.

Jesus indicates in Revelation that we have either the seal of God or the mark of the beast. The seal and the mark symbolize what people serve while on earth. The mark of the beast and or the seal of God point to the loyalty of each person to Satan or to God.

Answer 5

In the bible numbers are significant.
The number 3 "Denotes emphasis, Also indicates intensity (Revelation 4:8)

The number 6 Signifies imperfection, something not normal, monstrous (Revelation 13:18)

So putting the number 666 Represents the most evil of evils, Satan the Devil

Answer 6

Not a whole lot.
This number has been given an exaggerated meaning.
Its not as scary as many want us to believe.
The number 7 indicates perfection ...in the bible, or completeness.
Thus, the number 6 is short of perfection, or completeness.
Emphasized 3 times (becoming 666) means really imperfect.
So bad as to be thrown away.

Answer 7

Revelation 13:11
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

Revelation 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.
-----------
The number is the number of a man, the fact that the beast comes up from the earth proves that he is a man. Most likely the Anti-Christ that will deceive the whole world into believing that he is the earth's salvation from the horrific way the world will evolved into. He will make a 7 year treaty, but withing 3 1/2 years he will break the treaty and make war with God's people.
---------
The best place to find answers about this is in the Book of Daniel and Revelation.

God Bless You

Revelation 13:16-18

16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,

17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
