Yep, you're right. And don't drive a "CAR", or use "ELECTRICITY", or own a "COMPUTER" because they're NOT IN THE BIBLE.
What do you call a hypocrite? Oh yeah, a hypocrite! :)

"11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon... 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who hasGo ahead and add "name" to the text if you like.
Oh NOOO, the ocean! Hey there's sharks in there!! But then, we have "land sharks too", they are wicked people who try to sneak in false doctrine and lead believers astray . Boy we sure have to be on our toes. "If even the very elect"! I don't know what to think of the differing numbers but...I don't worry about it, it is interesting and deep though.
I need a life jacket![]()

Ha, so there are three things to be wary of."11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon... 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666." Revelation 13:11-18 NKJV
- the mark or
- the name of the beast, or
- the number of his name.
Context is everything.
@Bobby Jo , you probably should have led with that...
... 7 years. ...
See my blog post.Ha, so there are three things to be wary of.
I would not add "computer" to the book of Revelation.
Rev. 13:5 ... forty two months ...
Your "7 years" are from a mis-interpretation of Daniel 9, which has NOTHING to do with the Tribulation, except that the destroyer "shall come" after the seventy "weeks", which are not actually "weeks".
... and we've already started the 42 months ...
Bobby Jo
When did the 42 months start?
I have been reading through this thread, and it seems to have changed course! What troubles me is that If God could sustain over a million Souls in the Wilderness, for forty years, then why do we doubt that He will be able to take care of our needs during a few short years, let me see, oh yes, 7 years. True believers will Trust in the Savior!!
... seventy years after the international recognition of the State of Israel? -- When Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel?
Bobby Jo
By your peculiar method of calculating maybe. You may even think John wrote the book in English. . . .What?!?
The word "computer" sums to 666. -- And you LIKE computers and what they will do to mankind, with facial recognition, location tracking, license plate monitoring, and electronic cashless transactions?
Bobby Jo
Hello Truth!
That is exactly my reasoning. Always hope you are doing well :)
Thanks, I checked it out earlier.See my blog post.
Are you serious? I'm not a Christian because there's a train of thought out there, that I'm entertaining, that the original manuscript was "616" and not "666"? C'mon, that's ridiculous.
Yes, wolves is the better word!
Sorry, you will have to use an inner tube, I'm clean out of life jackets...Good thing God is our life line :)
Hehehe, land sharks is good too though. Furry land sharks is just downright funny though
Ruh-roh, thankfully I can use the anchor/life line (God) to guide me. Holding my breath in 3...2...1
... the one who is the world's most senior Jewish political statesman, whose name ALSO sums to 666 using the SAME METHODOLOGY as summing the word "computer".... -- which one comes up out the earth and looks like a lamb with two horns and speaks like a dragon?
