Does any know what,Revelation 22;18 says?
484446
Revelation is inspired of God. Who would dare change a word of what God himself has spoken and transmitted through the one who is now the reigning King, Jesus Christ? Certainly, such a person would deserve to lose out in the quest for life and suffer the plagues that must come upon Babylon the Great which is false religion and upon the whole world.

You guys need to get your facts straight.The 1000 yr reign and most of revelations has already been fulfilled this is the time that Satan is loosed for a season. 24th chapter of Matthew Jesus was talking to Peter,James,John and Andrew and he said this generation will not pass till all these things be fulfilled. This generation is not that generation.

Why 666 for the Antichrist in the Bible?\nYou asked a question to which the answer is still a secret. The ancients were numerologists, working with numbers as symbols. The Hebrew alphabet is symbolic, as are the runes. 666 in numerology results in 9 (6+6+6=18; 1+8=9). This number relates to the letter Kheth in the Syriac alphabet and to the letter Tet in the Hebrew alphabet, meaning to twist or a snake. The snake or serpent has been often seen as the symbol of the devil, although it is also the symbol of our divine life energy we now call Kundalini.\n\nOriginal research by Dr. Bara H. Loveland-Fischer points out that this number is closely related to one of our energy fields, which can be easily misused, that is, by activating it without spiritual balance we may become secretive behind a kind facade, avoiding to see ourselves and solve our problems, conning others who trust us.\n\nAlthough the secret is not fully out yet, we can see that the ancient texts had deep spiritual meaning and hold a mirror in front of us calling this number "the number of man:"\n\n"Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." (Bible, Revelation 13:18) A score is 20, threescore is 60 so that six hundred threescore and six makes 666.\n\nThis number also relates to the age we are in. Original research by Dr. Bara H. Loveland pointed out that we have not entered the age of Aquarius but the age relating to this Biblical number. \n\nHowever, all is energy, and energy is neither good nor bad. It is what we make of it. We can turn the negative side of 666 around to be its best: the nourishing, helpful, sharing, loving and open energy, which allows spiritual power and wisdom to bloom. It is all up to us! Yet, \n\n"We cannot change the world, we can only change ourselves. And herewith, we change the world (Dr. Bara H. Loveland-Fischer, 1981).\n\nThanks for your inspiring question! Keep searching, you are unto something great: the ancient wisdom and knowledge of our sacred energy fields!\n\nCordially, India.Magica

I think we were at "THE THOUSAND YEARS" but I don't know how long would this "thousand years" would last. Its at Revelation 20:1-6\n\nI think that all that's been said in the Revelation prior to the chapter 20 (that's upto chapter 19) were all pertained to the struggle of the Christianity. Everything that is written is symbolic, now that is the problem, I don't have much idea what those symbols means. But I know that the number 666 or the beast pertains to Emperor Nero. Since the "whole world" mention in Revelation is the world/nations itself known by the Christians at that time. All I know that He is coming very soon. So be it. Come, Lord Jesus!

I haven't seen the poster, but the quotation is from the Bible; it's 1 Corinthians, chapter 13...probably any Chrisitian book store would carry some kind of poster with those verses, as they are quite popular.

I believe in God being real, but in Revelation it clearly states that those signs and wonders in our time will be the coming of the antichrist, the wolf in sheeps clothing. He will decieve many and all I can say is he will bring more misery on this world than there has ever been. Watch out for him and pray that we will not be here to see his rise.

"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. 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." Revelation 13:16-18.

Don't let the book of Revelations get to you. It means nothing to us modern folk.\n\nYou see, the entire book is a system of symbols, a sort of code to fellow early Christians. For instance, if I'm at the airport and I say into my Secret Service walkie-talkie "The eagle has landed." I'm not talking about a bird but the arrival of an aircraft containing a specific guest.\n\nThe same is for Revelations. It is all code. That whole 666 mark of the beast thing? That's a warning about a then-current emperor.\n\nThe historical-critical interpretation also elucidates a central, pastoral message from Revelation relevant to the modern world. While interpretation of meanings and imagery is limited to what the historical author intended and what his contemporary audience inferred, a message to Christians not to assimilate into the Roman Imperial Culture was John's central message. Thus, his letter (written in the apocalyptic genre) is pastoral in nature; though the symbolism of Revelation is to be understood entirely within its historical literary and social context.\n\nWhile most of the Bible is historical fact, books like Genesis and Revelation only serve as myth.

In the book of Revelations, 666 is given as the number the Antichrist will mark his followers with.\n\n"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. 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 six hundred three score and six."

Who knows, the Revelation of John aka Revelations, is very unclear what this means exactly except that it is a mark. At one time people though that this was anything from a branding to a tatoo. Today we have interepreted this to mean microchips and the like. But the real thought should be: "Who can understand the plans that the Lord has instore for mankind?"

The book of Revelation is a detail of what is refered to as the Seventieth Week of Daniel. A week being "Seven Years" in Bible terminology. It is divided into three sections.\n1. What is-or the church eras.\n2. What will be-or the seven years of tribulation\n3. What will come after-the healing of the nations\nThe word "Revelation" means to "reveal" that which is to come. The Revelation was imparted to the John the beloved while exhiled on the island of Patmos.\nIf you want to read understand the Book of Revelation, open up your Bible and read my study below. Follow along with it. The book will have many references back to the old testament, so get ready for some page turnin'

Revelation 21:4 \n\n"And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

Based on the Scriptures below, I believe that the church of God (1 Cor.10:32 below - the saints of the most High, Dan.7:25 below), will face the tribulation under the beasts of Revelation chapter 13.\n\nThe "tribulation" will occur between the Sixth SEAL (Re.6:12-17) and the Seventh TRUMPET (1 Thess.4:16-17)..\n\nThe Seventh Trumpet (which many refer to as "the Rapture") will occur at the conclusion of the “tribulation”.\n\n\n1 Cor.10:32Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:\n\nMatt.24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.\n\nDan. 7:21I beheld, and the same (little) horn (king) MADE WAR WITH THE SAINTS, and prevailed against them (Dan.7:25 below);  \n\nDan.7:25And he (the little horn/king - Dan.7:8, Dan.7:24) shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High (Re.15:3), and think to change times and laws (Re.13:15, Dan.11:31): and they (the saints) shall be given into his hand until A TIME and TIMES and THE DIVIDING OF TIME (3 ½ years/1260 days) .\n \nDan.8:24And his (the king's - Dan.8:23, little horn's - Dan.8:9, Dan.7:24) power shall be mighty, but not by his own power (but Satan’s - Re.13:11-12): and he shall destroy wonderfully (Re.13:15), and shall prosper, and practice, and SHALL DESTROY THE MIGHTY AND THE HOLY PEOPLE (Dan.12:7 below, Col.1:22, Eph.1:4). \n\nRe.12:17And the DRAGON (Re.12:9, Re.20:2)  was wroth with the woman (the church of God - 1 Cor.10:32, Col.1:22, Col.1:24), and WENT TO MAKE WAR WITH THE REMNANT (the rest) OF HER SEED, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. \n \nRe.13:7And it was given unto him (the beast of Re. 13:1) TO MAKE WAR WITH THE SAINTS, AND TO OVERCOME THEM: and (Satanic) power was given him (Re.13:2) over ALL kindreds, and tongues, and nations (Dan.7:23, Re.17:15).\n\nRe.13:15 And he (another beast coming up out of the earth, Re.13:11) had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as WOULD NOT WORSHIP the IMAGE of the beast SHOULD BE KILLED .\n \nRe.16:6For they (those who had the mark of the beast, and those who worshipped his image) have shed the blood of SAINTS and PROPHETS, and thou hast given them blood to drink (Re.16:4); for they are worthy.  (of this punishment)\n\nRe.17:6And I saw the woman (that great city Babylon - Re.17:5) drunken with the blood of the SAINTS (Dan.7:21, Re.13:7, Re.13:15, Re.11:7), and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus (Re.18:24): and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. \n\nDan.12:6-7And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the END of these wonders?\n\nAnd I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for A TIME, TIMES, AND AN HALF (3 ½ years or 1260 days); and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people (Dan.8:24, Re.11:3, Re.11:7), all these things shall be FINISHED (Re.10:7).\n\n\n\nPat  (ndbpsa ©)

It is interesting how people with no understanding of Bible prophecy try to explain the book of Revelation. One person said that the church will be raptured prior to the time of the antichrist, How does he explain these verses in\n2 Thessalonians 2:1-4?\n\nNow we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: FOR THAT DAY SHALL NOT COME, EXCEPT THERE COME A FALLING AWAY FIRST, AND THAT MAN OF SIN BE REVEALED, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God\n\nNotice the timing of the rapture. Even a child would understand that the man of sin must first be revealed, then the rapture takes place.\n\nIn addition, the mark of the beast issue is about worship not ID numbers. The beast in Revelation 13 wants our worship, our obedience. He wants to be as God. ID cards or chips have nothing to do with worship or obedience. In fact, there is nothing religious about them. They are purely secular in nature, having much more to do with security. The real issue is over allegiance to God and His law, versus allegiance to Satan and his law.\n\nThe booklet, The Beast, the Dragon, and the Woman explains the issues surrounding the final conflict between Christ and Satan as it relates to God's people and the mark of the beast. It can be found at the following website.\n\nhttp://www.amazingfacts.org/items/Read_Media.asp?ID=668

Many of the bible prophecies have already come to pass including the return of the Jews to Israel. Everything needed for the mark of the beast is in place and we are seeing increased weather conditions and earthquakes all of which are also in the bible. I truly believe we are in the last days. To read it for yourself, turn to revelations and Daniel. God does not tell us the exact time but gives us many of the end time signs.
