My
only disagreements with him is that Paul is a false apostle and that Babylon
the Great is the United States of America.
Before we begin this exigent post, we must understand what the meaning
of an anti-messiah is. It is not a diametric opponent. Red and Blue. Black and
White. It is an impersonation. It is a con artist. It is an entity who pretends
to be the Messiah and appears as one. In a sense it is a negation of the truth
and the glorification of a lie.
A great body of evidence exists to implicate an entity
called Jesus H. Christ as the false messiah.
Matthew 24:24 For false messiahs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
In Revelation 13 The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw
a beast coming out of the sea…17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they
had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18 This
calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the
beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666.
Revelation specifically
and uniquely names Jesus Christ as the false messiah. Doesn’t look like it in English does it? That is because the English translation of
this verse is in error. Somewhere down the line a something was mistranslated
deliberately. What John said and meant in Revelation 13 is this: Revelation 13
The Beast out of the Sea
13 The dragon stood on the shore of the
sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea (sea serpent)so
that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark (+), which is the name of the beast or
(rather) the symbol of its name. This
calls for wisdom (to discern the Christogram). Let the person who has (spiritual) eyes to see reckon
up the (pictogram of the) symbol of the beast that
identifies him, for it is the symbol of a man. That symbol is
This is the key to the identification of The
False Messiah. We are misled by the Christian Church to believe The
Mark of the Beast is 666 when actually it is the spiritual mark of The Trinity
which is an X (or +) on the forehead (belief that Jesus in God incarnate) which
is opposite of The Mark of God of Yisrael. The numbers
666 are effectively a fiction designed to deceive. This is where the
wisdom and insight come in. You see, John didn’t write down a “number”, he
wrote down the 3 Greek letters of the symbol
of Jesus Christ to the exclusion of all others in history.
666 is a violation of
scripture not to “add to or subtract from”
Below
is what Revelation 13 looks like in the Greek language:
So the number 666 in our English Bibles is deliberately misleading as it only represented the occult gematria or the
associated number of what John actually wrote in Greek
letters. (Chi, Xi and Sigma). Translators converted the Greek
letters into
the number 666 because they mistranslated the meaning of the Greek word arithmos in
Rev. 13 as “number”. Then they subtracted and
added 666.
They have changed the SYMBOL to
a number in order to mask to identity of their "god"! The
Translators changed this ‘symbol’ in our English Bibles as so
that no one would recognize the mark,
the monogram, and the pictogram. The number 666 has nothing to do with
what John wrote as he didn’t write down a number but a symbol.
We arrived at our English translation of Revelation 13 by lying translators and
scribes.
John saw a SYMBOL not a NUMBER
The symbol John saw was a symbol for Jesus
Christ which is called a Christogram.
A Christogram is
a monogram or combination of Greek letters that forms an abbreviation for the
name of Jesus Christ, traditionally used as a Christian symbol. Christogram comes from
the Latin phrase "Christi Monogramma", meaning "monogram
of Christ". Different types of Christograms are associated with
the various traditions of Christianity
The Catholic Encyclopedia admits that XS is one of the standard Christograms:
IHS
A
monogram of the Jesus Christ. From the third century the names of our Saviour
are sometimes shortened, particularly in Christian inscriptions (IH and XP, for
Jesus and Christus). In the next century the "sigla" (chi-rho)
occurs not only as an abbreviation but also as a symbol. From the beginning, however, in Christian inscriptions the nomina
sacra, or names of Jesus Christ, were shortened by contraction,
thus IC / XC (which is IS / XS today) or
IHS and XPS for Iesous
Christos.
John “saw” in his vision one of
those “different types of monograms” or symbols of Jesus Christ. There are many
Christograms used throughout history and all of them use different combinations
of the Greek letters in Christos ΧΡΙΣΤΟS. The monogram that John wrote down
is unique using the Greek letter that symbolizes the symbol as written in Greek. John used
the first and last Greek letters in ΧΡΙΣΤΟS (the most commons symbol in history for Jesus
Christ) with the letter SIGMA in the middle:
We
read below these 3 Greek characters represent the pagan Greek title Christos ΧΡΙΣΤΟS used of all pagan demi-gods after which
Jesus Christ was fashioned by Constantine. But this ONE monogram XS includes the symbol of the sea serpent mentioned in Revelation
13:1…
"Number in Scripture" - Dr E W Bullinger pg 49
Indeed
the expression of this number, consists of the initial and final letters
of the word ΧΡΙΣΤΟS (Christos), Christ, the X
and V, with the symbol of the serpent between them, X—x—V.. The middle letter represents the symbol of the
serpent and is intimately connected with the ancient Egyptian Mysteries.
Bear
in mind that we are still after the 'Name' of this opposing force against the
True God, which, if this Scripture in Rev.13:16-18 has any reference to it, is
linked with this mysterious symbol (SIGMA) linked to paganism - the symbol of the
serpent which Revelation declares
gives the false messiah his power, authority, and throne on Earth.
Does arithmos mean
‘number’ or ‘symbol’ in context of Rev. 13?
Throughout history, the name Jesus Christ has
been represented by symbols not numbers as John demonstrated by writing down
the symbol in
Revelation Chapter 13:18.
A Christogram is
a monogram or combination of Greek letters that forms an abbreviation for the
name of Jesus Christ, traditionally used as a Christian symbol.
The Catholic Encyclopedia
admits that these Christograms are symbols not numbers:
IHS
A
monogram of the Jesus Christ. From the third century the names of our Saviour
are sometimes shortened, particularly in Christian inscriptions (IH and XP, for
Jesus and Christus). In the next century the "sigla" (chi-rho)
occurs not only as an abbreviation but also as a symbol.
ariqmoV mistranslated
The word arithmos translated
as number in Revelation 13:18 should have been translated
as symbol or the “figurative representation”
that “lifts up” a specific man as to “identify” him by
name… such as a mark, pictogram, or monogram.
In Revelation 13:18 the Greek word translated number in
English is Strong’s #706 arithmos below
|
ariqmoV
arithmos
ar-ith-mos'
|
From root word airw - airo 142;
a number (as reckoned up):--number.
|
Arithmos can mean “number” as in the sense of; a symbol that
represents a specific calculated measurement of units. Arithmos can
also mean; “representation” or “symbol” in the sense of “reckoned up”
to identify something. The words “representation” and “symbol” are
English synonyms of “number” see… http://thesaurus.com/browse/number
In Revelation 13:18, “symbol” would be a much
more accurate English word for the Greek word arithmos. Arithmos as
used by John is in the sense of “representation” or “symbol”
used to “reckoned up” and identify something in this case The
False Messiah’ name.
To understand which word (number or symbol)
better represents arithmos in this specific case, the
translators should have consulted the ROOT WORD of arithmos which
is airo. Airo gives us a full sense
of what John was saying given he wrote down a symbol not a number.
Arithmos is derived from the Greek root word airo Strong’s
#142 below:
|
airw
airo
ah'-ee-ro
|
a primary root word; to
lift up; by representation, to take up or away; figuratively
|
The word arithmos in
conjunction with its root airo implies a “symbol” that is used
“to figuratively lift up; by representation” not a mathematical
number. Arithmos is used this way by John in Revelation
13:18 and means a symbol or a “figurative representation”
that “identifies” i.e. a mark, pictogram, or monogram!
That is why John did not write down a number after arithmos he
put down 3 Greek letters that is used as a symbol that figuratively
represents Jesus Christ…
The reason the number 666 appears in our English
Bibles and not his symbol is
because the translators mistranslated arithmos as number instead
of symbol. Then the translators took the liberty of
changing the text and converting it into
the number 666 using the system of Gematria. This was a deliberate error
in translation intended to decieve.
Revelation 22:18
18 I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this
book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written
in this book; 19 and if anyone takes away from the words
of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the tree of life
and from the holy city, which are written in this book.
So arithmos as used by John should
have been translated as symbol in the sense of a “figurative
representation to lift up and identify” the name Jesus Christ. That
is the full meaning and how it is used by John in Revelation 13:18. How
do we know? Because John didn’t write 666 our English translators
inserted that number and took out the symbol. John put down the
Greek symbol ,
the “figurative representation” that “lifts up” and identifies the name of the
coming False Messiah Jesus Christ. No wonder John
warned us we would need “wisdom and insight” to figure this one out because our
translators have deliberately changed
the text.
What John was actually saying in Revelation 13
is
Revelation 13
The Beast out of the Sea
18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight reckon up the symbol of
the beast, for it is the symbol of a man that identifies
him. That symbol is
This “figurative representation that lifts up
to identify” i.e. is
the symbol of Jesus Christ exclusively no other figure in
human history uses this symbol.
Do these Greek letters
point us uniquely to the name “Jesus” and “Christ”?
Throughout history, the Christian Church has
used various combinations of Greek letters in Christos ΧΡΙΣΤΟS to represent Jesus Christ as SYMBOLS it does not and has never used 666 or numbers.
Sometimes we see letters in Christos in combination with letters from
other titles used as the monogram for “Jesus Christ”. For instance, the
famous chi-rho monogram, a symbol which became part of the official standard of
the emperor Constantine, was made from the first two letters of Christos ΧΡΙΣΤΟS. Other symbols use the first and last
letter ΧΡΙΣΤΟS, or just the first Χ, and so on.
The Chi Rho is one of the
earliest forms of the christogram and is used by some Christians. It is formed
by superimposing the first two (capital) letters chi and rho (ΧΡ) of the
Greek word "ΧΡΙΣΤΟS" =Christ in such a way
to produce the monogram. Although not technically a Christian cross, the
Chi-Rho invokes the crucifixion of Jesus, as well as symbolizing his status as the
Christ.
The Chi-Rho symbol was used by the Roman
emperor Constantine I, which is known as Labarum. Early pagan symbols similar
to the Chi Rho were the Staurogram () and the IX Monogram ()
The version of the Christogram above used by
Constantine is to this day emblazoned on
the pagan alter of The Catholic Church. The Christogram of Constantine is
also inscribed on the YMCA building below:
What version of the
Christogram did John see in Rev. 13?
Most versions of the Christogram that use
letters in the Greek word for Christ (ΧΡΙΣΤΟS), the one John saw too represents the first and last letters in
Christos ΧΡΙΣΤΟS or XS. XS is one of the
most common Christograms throughout history which in medieval times was
an XC. Anytime we see XC in
paintings or murals that is equivalent to XS today.
As I mentioned earlier the letters in a
Christogram can be combined with other symbols as well to make the
Christogram more meaningful. Like the Chi-Rho Constantine
used that is still being used today on the pagan Alter of the
Catholic Church and other Christian structures. The Christogram that John
used in Revelation portrayed the most famous monogram for Christos (ΧΡΙΣΤΟS) with the Egyptian pagan mystery symbol of
the serpent (SIGMA) in the
middle to give it more meaning. The sea serpent is identified In
Revelation 13:1 as the “beast coming out of the sea” and is the source of the
power, authority, and throne of The False Messiah. So when
identifying that beast, John used the first two letters
of Christos (ΧΡΙΣΤΟS) with the symbol of the
serpent (SIGMA) in the middle.
The universal symbol throughout the ages and
throughout cultures is a serpent in an upright coil:
What John was telling us by using the standard
monogram for Jesus Christ or ΧS is that the “sea serpent”
or the dragon would be the source of the power, great
authority and throne of the False Messiah.
Revelation 13
And I saw a beast coming out of the sea … The
dragon (SIGMA
) gave the beast (XS) his power and his
throne and great authority.
"Number in Scripture" - Dr E W Bullinger pg 49)
Indeed
the expression of this number, CxV, consists of the initial and final letters
of the word XristoV (Christos),
Christ, viz., X and V, with the symbol of the
serpent between them, X—x—V. The middle letter represents the symbol of the
serpent and is intimately connected with the ancient Egyptian Mysteries.
We see the Greek letters such as IC and XC (which
is XS today) used as symbols for
‘Jesus Christ’ in painted mosaics the world over:
“IC XC” as written in the Hellenistic
period is a Christogram, a monogram of “Jesus Christ”. When Jesus
Christ is written in Greek looks like this: ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ. If
we take the first and last letters of ΙΗΣΟΥΣ (“Jesus”) and ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ (“Christ”) we are left with: ΙΣ ΧΣ. Today that would read IS XS.
Note: In handwritten Greek during the Hellenistic period (4th
and 3rd centuries BC), the epigraphic form of Σ was simplified into a C-like
shape, thereby giving
us: IC XC. But today “at the time of the end” when Revelation
would be understood the Σ is transliterated as the letter S. Therefore all these
Christograms painted world-wide if painted today would read IS / XS. XS (ΧΣ) being the Christogram used by John in Revelation
13 as a symbol not a number.
These mosaics of Jesus Christ would have a
serpent symbol above the IC XC (which today would be IS XS). If you move
that serpent symbol into the monogram below it you have the exact symbol John
wrote in Revelation 13:18. Remember the Greek letter Sigma Σ at the
time this mosaic was painted was transliterated as a C. Today the Sigma
is transliterated as an S:
The symbol John saw is literally hidden
in plain sight as THE symbol for Jesus Christ in
paintings, on mosaics that adorn cathedrals, on stain glass murals, on
buildings and inscriptions the world over.
In many paintings, Jesus Christ is depicted as
making the same cryptic hand gestures as seen above. This hand gesture is
literally the symbol of the anti-Christ that John saw in Revelation… X Sigma or
XS (depicted as XC as the Sigma was transliterated as a C in the middle ages).
We see in the images above that Jesus’ right hand forms an X by crossing his
first two fingers and he forms the C for Sigma by curving his last two fingers
making the C shape. This is the hand gesture of the False Messiah as he
identifies himself in plain site making the XS symbol
with his hands, the very symbol John used in Revelation 13…
In Eastern Christianity, the most widely used
Christogram is a four-letter abbreviation, ΙϹΧϹ — a
traditional abbreviation of the Greek words for "Jesus Christ”
"ΙΗϹΟΥϹ ΧΡΙϹΤΟϹ" with the lunate sigma "Ϲ" common in medieval
Greek which we today transliterate as an S. On icons, this Christogram may be
split: "ΙϹ" on the left of the image and "ΧϹ" on the right,
most often with a sideways S above the letters to indicating that it is
a sacred name. Jesus Christ’s right hand is shown in a
pose that represents the letters Χ, and Ϲ.
points the Trinity as well as Christ
The sign of the cross is the mark of Jesus
Christ and that of the false religion of Christianity:
the mark, or the name—Greek, "the mark
(namely), the name of the beast." The mark may be, as in the case of the
sealing of the saints in the forehead, not a visible mark, but
symbolical of allegiance. Such as the sign of the cross in
Popery.
Can this “symbol” John used be associated with
The Trinity specifically?
Remember, John’s warning that “reckoning up the
symbol” requires spiritual understanding and INSIGHT or “eyes
to see”.
Revelation 13
18 This calls for wisdom (spiritual understanding of the mind). Let the person who has (spiritual) insight reckon
up the symbol of the beast that identifies
him
The Mark of the Beast is the first letter in ΧΡΙΣΤΟS the X (+) most widely used monogram for Christ and the mark on the
forehead of Christians:
The X mark is made on the forehead in
Christianity while repeating “in the name of the Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit” or XES sealing the mind with the opposing
mark of The Shema.
X | Xs plural form | Xes plural form
Origin: Christ by abbreviation, from Ancient Greek Χ (Ch,
"(letter chi)"), from Χριστός (Christós,... (26 of 44 etymology words)
The Sign and the Seal of The Beast is the X monogram
The
first letter Chi or X (+) is also used widely today
as just one of the many monograms or symbols for
Christ and is literally The Mark of the Beast John was
referring to in Revelation 13!
The most commonly encountered Christogram in
English-speaking countries in modern times is the X (or more accurately, Greek
letter chi) in the abbreviation Xmas (for
"Christmas"), which represents the first letter of the word Christ.
The early Church Fathers
attested to the use of the sign of the cross and that it is the Seal or Mark of
Christianity; the mark that apposes The Shema.
Tertullian (d. ca. 250)
described the commonness of the sign of the cross:
"In all our
travels and movements, in all our coming in and going out, in putting on our
shoes, at the bath, at the table, in lighting our candles, in lying down, in
sitting down, whatever employment occupies us, we mark our foreheads
with the
sign of
the cross"
(De corona, 30).
St. Cyril of Jerusalem (d.
386) in his Catechetical Lectures stated,
"Let us then not be
ashamed to confess the Crucified. Be the cross our seal, made with boldness by our fingers on our
brow and in everything; over the bread we eat and the cups we drink, in our
comings and in our goings out; before our sleep, when we lie down and when we
awake; when we are traveling, and when we are at rest" (Catecheses, 13).
Gradually, the sign of the
cross was incorporated in different acts of the Mass, such as the three-fold
signing of the forehead, lips, and heart. Ash Wednesday is the first day
of Lent which is the Babylonian ritual of “Weeping for Tammuz”. Occurring 46
days before Easter which is the sacrifice of a pig in honor of the death of
Tammuz. At Masses and services of worship on Ash Wednesday, ashes
are imposed on the foreheads of the faithful.
The
priest, minister, or in some cases officiating layperson, marks the forehead of
each participant with black ashes in the sign of the cross,
which the worshiper traditionally retains until it wears off.
is the pictogram of
name of Jesus as well as Christ identifying “Jesus Christ” by name
It would
take understanding to identify the monogram.
Insight or spiritual eyes to see would be looking at this
symbol as a pictogram as well as a monogram.
The
symbol would be
a pictogram of the English letters XES.
Strictly
speaking, a pictogram represents by illustration,
an ideogram represents an idea, and a logogram represents
a word: Chinese characters are all logograms, but few are pictograms or
ideograms. Casually, pictogram is used to represent all of
these: it is a picture representing some concept.
The pictogram would
be visually associated and visually represent the
characters XES in English. The Greek letter X
looks like an X, the Greek letter Xi looks like the English letter E in both
upper and lower case forms:
The Greek
letter Sigma looks like an S giving us the pictogram of the English
letters XES in both upper and lower case form:
XES as a pictogram
of
in the plural
form of the X monogram of Jesus
X | Xs plural form | Xes plural form
Origin: Christ by abbreviation, from Ancient Greek Χ (Ch,
"(letter chi)"), from Χριστός (Christós,... (26 of 44 etymology words)
So XES would
indicate Jesus in triplicate. Jesus was often represented in
this form in antiquity.
As a pictogram of XES in
English, this symbol uniquely
identifies the name ‘Jesus’ as
well.
IHS is as
as XES is the pictogram
The first 3
letters of the name Jesus are one of the most commonly used monograms for Jesus
today. The most famous is IHS which is a Latin contracted form of IHSous
(Jesus):
IHS
A monogram of the Jesus Christ.
From the third century the names of our Saviour are sometimes shortened,
particularly in Christian inscriptions (IH and XP, for Jesus and Christus). In
the next century the "sigla" (chi-rho) occurs not only as an
abbreviation but also as
a symbol.
is a pictogram for the
English letters XES. XES is
the English translation of one of the Greek forms of IHS,
the most famous of the symbols of Jesus. XESÚS is a common
spelling of Jesus today:
In fact, the
name Jesus is written in the Greek Galician dialect as XESus
and is of Hebrew origin at the time John wrote Revelation.
The baby boy name Xesus is
pronounced as KahSahS . Xesus is of Hebrew origin and
it is used mainly in the Galician language. Xesus is a variation of
Jesus (English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German).

They who don’t have the
mark (+) could not buy or sell
In Revelation 13:17 we see that those who do not
take the mark of Jesus Christ (+) are prohibited from commerce within his
realm. Is this referring to some futuristic physical “mark” or biochip in
our forehead and hand as is being taught today? Or have we simply
overlooked the obvious because we are unwilling to acknowledge the Jesus Christ
is the beast and Christianity is the second beast? If we simply take an
honest look throughout history, we see that Christianity has outlawed “buying
and selling” specifically for all those who do not bow down to the authority of
The Pope who claims to be the Vicar of Christ (representative of Jesus Christ
on Earth) and accept the specific mark on their forehead.
We see below the Mark of the Beast is the sign
of the Cross(+) and those who do not have that mark were forbidden to “buy
or sell” throughout history:
the mark, or the name—Greek, "the mark
(namely), the name of the beast." The mark may be, as in the case of the
sealing of the saints in the forehead, not a visible mark, but
symbolical of allegiance. So the sign of the cross in Popery. The Pope's interdict has often shut out the excommunicate
from social and commercial intercourse.
And that no man might buy or sell, save he that
had the mark – "If any," observes Bishop Newton,
"dissent from the stated and authorized
forms (of Christianity); they are condemned and excommunicated as
heretics; and in consequence of that they are no longer suffered to
buy or sell; they are interdicted from traffic and commerce, and all
the benefits of civil society.
Roger Hoveden relates of William the Conqueror,
that he was so dutiful to the pope that he would
not permit any one in his power to buy or sell any
thing whom he found disobedient to the apostolic see (The Pope).
The canon of the council of Lateran, under Pope
Alexander III.,
made against the Waldenses and Albigenses,
enjoins, upon pain of anathema, that no man presume to entertain or cherish
them in his house or land, or exercise traffic with them (that do not follow Papal authority).
The synod of Tours, in France, under the same
pope, orders,
“under the like intermination, that no man
should presume to receive or assist them, no, not so much as hold any communion
with them, in selling or buying; that, being deprived of the
comfort of humanity they may be compelled to repent of the error of their
way."
It was ordered by a bull of Pope Martin the
Fifth,
“that no contract should be made with such,
and that they should not follow any business and merchandise: save he that had the mark; took the oath to be true to the pope, or made
a public profession of the Popish religion: or the name of the beast; Papists,
so called from the pope”
In the tenth and eleventh centuries the severity
against the excommunicated was carried to so high a pitch, that nobody might
come near them, not even their own wives, children, or servants; they forfeited
all their natural legal rights and privileges and were excluded from all kinds
of offices.
Now that we know the identity of the first
beast, that it is the “image of a man” we have elevated in our hearts as our God above The God of Abraham… and John identified that man by his mark, his monogram, and by a
pictogram and it is Jesus Christ the serpent.
John 16:2 the time is coming when anyone who kills you
will think they are offering a service to God. They will do such things
because they have not known the Father or me……….
