It seems you want to dissuade and discredit me
by branding me a "dyslexic". That's two posts in a row
you pulled out your fancy word. Not a problem.....God's
truth always prevails to those who are wise and read
His Word. The Doves can and will understand common
sense when they see it and read it.
I'll explain Rev.13:11-18 once again in an effort to
bring clarity to the passage. Not for your sake Kevin,
you're in full defensive mode, but for other Doves who
I hope are reading this who are willing to ponder and
explore these verses for clarity.
Then God adds two unrelated, obscure verses to the
chapter in verses 9 and 10 that don't flow with the first 8
verses or the last 8 verses. I believe God sandwiched
these unrelated verses in the chapter to make sure the
reader knew that He (God) was completely changing the
subject matter when the reader got to verse
11.....which He did.
Starting at verse 11 God dedicates the last 8
verses exclusively to the second
beast who we call the false
prophet. Here are the verses....
11..Then I saw another beast (second
beast) coming up out of the earth, and he (second
beast) had two horns like a lamb and spoke
like a dragon.
12..And he (second beast) exercises all the
authority of the first beast in his (first
beast) presence, and causes the earth and
those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose
deadly wound was healed.
13..He (second beast) performs
great signs, so that he (second
beast) even makes fire come down from heaven
on the earth in the sight of men.
14..And he (second beast) deceives
those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast
(first beast) who was
wounded by the sword and lived.
15.. He (second beast) was granted
power to give breath to the image of the (first) beast, that
the image of the (first) beast
should both speak and cause as many as would not worship
the image of the (first) beast
to be killed.
16/17...He (second beast) causes all,
both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to
receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,
and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the
mark or the name of the (first) beast,
or the number of his (first
beast) name.
18..Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding
calculate the number of the (second
beast) beast, for it is the number of a man:
His number is 666.
Notice how God in verse 11 frames His subject
matter (what God wanted us to focus on)......"Then I
saw another beast (second
beast)....focus on the second beast.
And also
notice.... so there wouldn't
be any confusion who God was talking about,
that God started the continuing verses with the
word "he". God did this so you would know that He hadn't
changed the focus of His explanation and was completely
focused on the second beast. The verses tell how the
second beast interacts with the first beast
but God's focus never leaves the second beast. He, he, he, he, he, he.........
God did not change His
focus in these 8 verses from the second beast.
So the quiz and the challenge God gave us in verse
18 was directed at the identity and
number of this second beast who we call the false
prophet and not the antichrist.
I don't believe God changed the whole focus of
His message about the second beast suddenly in
verse 18 back to the first beast,
the antichrist. Why would He? He already gave us a
test and a quiz for the antichrist in Rev.17.
God in Rev.17 went into great detail as to
the identity of the first beast. He also gave us a
quiz and a challenge there for those who were wise to
determine the identity of the first beast.
God tells us in Rev.13:11,18 that this second beast is
a man who comes from the earth. To me that means in the
end times a live man who is present on the earth will
assume the role of the second beast who we call the false
prophet. To help distinguish who this man would be God
gave us a number that represents this man. And that number
is 666. Members of the Doves family through their research
have accumulated large amounts of data indicating that
this number refers to Barack Hussein Obama.
God tells us in Rev.17 that the first beast arises from
the bottomless pit. In Rev.9:11 God tells us that the king
of the bottomless pit is a fallen angel who goes by the
names of Abaddon and Apollyon. Whatever the entity is
that arises from the bottomless pit it will not be a man
who is alive and present on earth at the end times
scenario.
From the extensive description God gives us
in Rev.17 concerning the first beast the antichrist it is
clear to me that an image of a dead pope will arise from
the bottomless pit and be indwelled by Satan himself.
This false pope will come back on the world stage
immediately after the rapture of the church to become the
eighth and last pope (as per Rev.17). He will have all the
answers as to what just happened to the millions of people
who have disappeared. He will devise a 7 year plan
(covenant) with the world to heal the world economy and
bring peace to the planet. It will take the
antichrist 42 months of "playing nice" to
orchestrate a one world government and a one world
religion. Then, and,
(Rev.13:6) after these initial 42 months he turns into the
demon that he is. He declares himself to be the true god
of the universe and demands all earth worship him as such.
The new dictator of the United States, Barack Obama as the
second beast of scripture will use the entire weight of
the U.S. military complex to enforce the edicts of the
antichrist. Obama will force all to take the name, mark,
or number of the antichrist or they will be
killed.
So yes, it is extremely important to understand
which beast is related to the number 666 in Rev.13
It may mean life or death to millions of people who
become deceived as to which beast is the
antichrist. Millions already believe that it is
Obama......just what the devil wants as he slips himself
in..... as a nice sweet dead old pope, under the
radar. This will become one of the
"great deceptions" which scripture warns us about.
Bottom line.... 666 is the number of the false
prophet and not the antichrist. Plan accordingly..........

P.S.. Why is it that Ron Reese,
Mathman and others (I wouldn't dare include you
Kevin) won't address God's
words on the matter but continue to
insist that Obama is the antichrist ?? Here are
some of God's words on the matter below that they seem
to dodge and deflect from.
1) The bible says that
the antichrist arises from the bottomless
pit which makes him a spirit being or something
other than a living man. And the bible says that the
false prophet is a man. Obama is a man and not some
entity from the bottomless pit, so how can he
be the antichrist?
2) The bible says in Rev.17
that the antichrist has a complex and
complete affiliation with a worldwide
organization. God describes this organization in
Rev.17, 18 in such exacting
and great detail that anyone with
insight recognizes that it is the Roman Catholic
Church. Is Obama affiliated with the RCC
?........absolutely not.
3) The bible says in
Rev.17 that the antichrist will be one of seven
kings of this organization and he will also be
the eighth king of this organization. Is Obama or
has Obama been one of seven kings of this
organization?..........absolutely not.
4) The bible says in
Rev.17 that the antichrist was, is not, and yet
is. Meaning that he was alive, he died, and
rises from the bottomless pit. Has Obama
died?....No Has he risen from the
dead?...No The bible
says that it has been appointed once for a man to
die. Obama is a man, he is alive, he has not
died.
5) The bible says
in Rev.17:8 that when the antichrist
ascends from the bottomless pit that the whole world
will marvel (be totally amazed) at this person who
was alive, died and has now appeared to have come
alive again. Can Obama fulfill this or the above
qualifications that God details of the
antichrist?Absolutely NOT!!!!
6) In Rev.13:18 God tells us
that the number 666 is the number of a man. The
antichrist is some sort of entity from the
bottomless pit that will take on the disguise of a
former pope. So why would we mix apples and
oranges and say that a man Barack
Obama would be the antichrist when the
antichrist is some sort of demon from the
bottomless pit??......... The answer is
simple, Satan lied to us
about 666 through one of his demonic pastors or priests
decades ago and millions have sworn to and have
continued this lie ever since. And people won't or haven't
read their bibles in search of the truth about
this. They just keep passing on the
lie..........
