6/6/06 … ?
Jun 06
I’ve heard a lot of hoop-la about today’s date, June 6th, 2006 or 6/6/06. So many people that do not fully understand what this set of numbers mean relate it to the end of the world.
What does this widely talked about number mean? It comes from the Bible, the Book of Revelation specifically. When you read the Bible, any number you see has a meaning and or purpose to it. The number 6 is man’s number, the day man was created. The number 666 is the sign of the Beast, or the Anti-Christ, the person(s) that come to power during the 7 year Tribulation.
A lot of people believe that during the Tribulation people will have to have a mark on their forehead or hand to be able to purchase food or items, this is true, but not necessarily a physical mark. In the Old Testament people who worshiped God or false gods referred to having a mark on their forehead, this was a spiritual “mark” not a physical one. This is one of the reasons why the Anti-Christ wants everyone to have this mark, he wants to be worshiped. The mark on the hand will probably be so sort of pledge of allegiance to the beast and or a device that allows you to purchase items.
That’s a very quick summary of the 666 mark, I may at some point write an article on it for my Christianity section. I hope that you have learned something- if you have any questions or comments, let me know!
Here’s a comic poking fun at the 666′ers, enjoy.
