666

Mee, I've done a fair bit of reading lately on this subject, particularly out of Witness literature, and the only conclusion I can feel certain about is that the idea that the beast is the empire of false religion is incorrect.




and you would be correct in thinking that, because as all Jehovahs witnesses are aware , it is the WOMAN(HARLOT) that is
THE WORLDWIDE EMPIRE OF FALSE RELIGION.

not the beast that she is riding, it is the beast that she is riding that will turn on her in a big way .


hope that helps

for those who are into 666 mentioned in the book of revelation, the thread called ......Identifying babylon the great....... post 33 is a good read

what to observe is that most of the truths of existence are found clearly in nature (God) over the conclusions derived by mankinds opinions

meaning that the progression of evolution is found in the golden ratio (see conch shell) and the number of 666 is also found in the basis of most all life known in existence (carbon - 12)

what this shares is that nature (God) is not suspected of fibbing and decieving but men and the interpretations are what is purely suspect

My suspicion is that the identity of the beast is a lot less complicated than this,

that what?

any person of choice can murder, kill and fib causing ill regard by choice just as and completely equal to any devil/beast or monster.......

then if an opinion causes mass ill regard, hate, secularism and war.... just as the condition this world is in. Does not mean an outside force is doing it but that the fibs of men have continued to cause the very atrocities within mankind.

in the quran they call them jinns..... (lies that continue to kill as they live)


ie.... Jesus said purely that he is not Good (god)... as well shared that 'another' is to come back to finish the job of messiah..... not him!

these are what Jesus said but people continue to believe and follow what other said over Jesus' own words as represented in the very bible many hold so firm.

Jesus was a great teacher and them afterwards ruin the intent, the words and the gifts of Jesus incorporating fibs.

18And Jesus said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one [is] good except One -- God

and

26and the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and remind you of all things that I said to you

but how many actually follow the words of jesus?
