666 Sanctified: The Beast Was Fake News

The number 666 has been sanctified and this should bring sighs of relief to all those who were wary at the number of the beast fearing it symbolised satanic forces.  It has transpired that the number of the beast was pointing at the numbers of animals, which were sacrificed in sacred ceremonial offerings in the Old Testament. In turn, the numbers of those sacrificial animals harboured a great secret because they proved to be the indices of a secret calendar matrix, which mapped out biblical history culminating with the predicted Messiah. 666 was the compass to point the way to this hidden knowledge.  Set among the vials of wrath, multiple headed monsters, four fierce horsemen and venomous damnations, the reference to 666 in the Book of Revelation read as follows: “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” (Revelations 13:18)

Here Is Wisdom

Looking at things rationally, the phrase ‘here is wisdom’ prompted of King Solomon who was renowned for his wisdom. The second phrase state: “let him who has understanding”. There was a similar phrase relating to Solomon in the first Book of Kings where it is stated that: “God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceedingly much.” The two phrases were comparable but one needs to ask: was Solomon the intended target? To find the answer, the number 666 was entered into a biblical search engine and lo and behold it stopped with King Solomon where it stated: “Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold.” (First Kings 10:14) The number 666 indicated that Solomon was the target and the gold talents gave the notion of a treasure trail. The search engine next stopped in the second Book of Chronicles where it repeated about the weight of gold that came to Solomon as ‘six hundred and threescore and six talents of gold’. Thus, a firm link to Solomon had been established.

It did not take long to find out why 666 was the number of a man because the search engine stopped in the Book of Ezra where it listed the number of men who returned from exile in Babylon. It states: “The children of Adonikam, six hundred sixty and six.” The number of the children of a man named Adonikam was 666. The number 666 is therefore linked with Solomon and with the number of a man named Adonikam, but what does that mean? 

Immediately following the listing of 666 in the Book of Revelation, the text referred to a lamb on Mount Sinai and four beasts. There was also a reference to the word Firstfruits. When the word Firstfruits was entered into the search engine, one place it stopped was in Chapter 28 of the Book of Numbers. It turned out that the Firstfruits was a ceremonial feast day to celebrate the first fruits of the harvesting. And guess what was offered for sacrifice? It was four beasts. Three of those beasts were bullocks, rams and lambs in what was called a burnt offering. There were three of those burnt offerings with the same numbers of bullocks, rams and lambs mentioned in the chapter.  In the next chapter there were eight burnt offerings, the main three of which were with one bullock, one ram and seven lambs. The sacrifice of the goats was separate, and it was called a sin offering.

The number 666 had led to Solomon and also to the Book of Ezra and now it could be gleaned why because there were burnt offerings made by those two men. Solomon made a burnt offering of bullocks, rams and lambs, while two burnt offerings with the same animals were listed in the Book of EzraThe word Firstfruits also led to King Hezekiah and the reason was predictable because the king had made two burnt offerings. The number 666 together with the word Firstfruits had led to seven burnt offerings in the Old Testament. On investigation, the numbers of animals in those burnt offerings proved to be the indices of a secret calendar that the prophets had used to map out the coming of their predicted Messiah.

The Messianic 777-Day Calendar Of The Prophets

The secret calendar was unusual because it operated on the principle of projecting time into the future in lots of 777 days. When 777 days were counted out 55 times the count returned to almost the same day after 117 years. By continuing the count, it returned to almost the same day after 217 years. So important were those three indices of 777, 117 and 217 that the biblical writers secretly encrypted them as the number of animals in sacred burnt offerings.
