18 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. (Revelation 13:18)
gematria is a calculation, a number from a name, a word, a phrase. every letter has a number allocated. the amount of all numbers is the number allocated to that word. if in latin alphabet, you allocate to the letter z, the number 1 and to next letters in inverse order of the alphabet, you allocate 2,3,4, etc, until 10, then 10,20,30, etc, until 100, then 100,200,300, etc, until last letter a, the word (name) hitler is 666. h=100, i=90, t=7, l=60, e=400, r=9. this is one of many possible gematries. in "real" gematria, the hebrew alphabet, nero is the only famous person with the number 666.
caesar neron = nron qsr = × ×¨×•× ×§×¡×¨
resh (ר) samekh (ס) qoph (×§) nun (× ) vav (ו) resh (ר) nun (× )
200 + 60 + 100 + 50 + 6 + 200 + 50 = 666
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. (Revelation 17:8)
from this quote, we can understand the beast (666) will live two times. what similarities have hitler and nero? both they fought jews, both they killed themselves after they lost the war, both were the biggest killers in the history of humanity, nero killed paul and peter, in one word: 666. maybe God gave two chances to 666 to be a human, but he refused those.

Re: who is 666? my opinion
Post #74Certainly as detailed as it needs to be, yes. It's a direct quote from the Bible that directly answers your question. If you don't accept it, I have no problem with that. But, well, in an analogous sense, if you ask what color something is, and I say, "royal blue," is that "not enough detail" for you? If so, wow.woodtick wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 5:12 pmYou call that a detailed answer to my question?PinSeeker wrote:That's not what he asserted, Woodtick. He said, and I quote, "the beast's dominance is global" (emphasis mine). And his assertion is true, and unmistakable upon reading Revelation 13:3-4, which says:
."And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast; they worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, 'Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?' ” (emphasis mine)
Your "reply" is what it is... or was what it was... yes. Mean-spirited and hateful. Now. Are YOU mean-spirited and hateful? Well I don't know. Are you? I gather your answer is no. Well, okay, but your reply to Jehovah's Witness was mean-spirited and hateful.
JW -- and now I -- have been very amicable toward you, woodtick.
Right on, man. Grace and peace to you.

I realize JW has over 15,000 post and PS is pushing 2,000. This post of mine makes 78. You give me a warning for saying, "he has no depth".
Yet you have no problem with PS accusing me of being mean spirited and hate just for saying "he has no depth"???
I removed all my replies and I'll see you later. One word describes you - BIASED!
I should be working on my website instead of dealing with you guys.
Carry on
