Welcome to "Revelation Unravelled", I'm your host, William Tapley, also known as the "Third
Eagle of the Apocalypse", and the "Co Prophet of the End Times". On this program I want
to clear up several misconceptions, which have cropped up lately on YouTube, about the
number 6 6 6, as it appears in the book of Revelation. Now, some people are saying that
it should actually be, 6 1 6, and some are saying that it is not numbers at all, but
it's actually a phrase in Arabic. Now let's first take a look at Saint John's warning
about adding or subtracting to any of the words in the book of Revelation. Revelation
22, verse 18. "For I testify unto every man that hears the words of the prophecy of this
book, if any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are
written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this
prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life." Notice, that adding
and taking away are mathematical terms. Now, this is not a warning that you cannot interpret
the book of Revelation. Notice, Saint John says adding or taking away. Those are mathematical
terms, adding and subtracting. This refers to numerology because numerology in end times
apocalyptic literature is very important, as is symbolism. This warning is especially
important for translators. For example, the Navarre bible has five "blesseds" in the end
time chapters of Revelation, that is numbers 6 through 20 instead of four "blesseds". This
is a terrible mistake! Those four "blesseds" refer to the raptured Protestants, the protected
Catholics, the holy martyrs and the converted Jews. When you change numbers like that, you
change the entire meaning, the symbolic meaning, of the book of Revelation. Now, let's look
at this passage in Revelation 13, where Saint John uses the number 6 6 6. Revelation 13,
verse 17. "And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of
the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding
count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred
three score and six," or 666. Now, notice in this passage Saint John uses the word "wisdom"
and he only uses this word twice in the 15 end time chapters of the book of Revelation,
and both of them have to do with numerology. That's why I believe this number should be
6 6 6. Now, while Walid Shoebat and others are claiming that the Greek letters which
signify six hundred, sixty plus six, actually refer to Arabic letters. Now, Walid Shoebat
is claiming that the three Greek letters, chi, xi and sigma, which symbolize six hundred,
plus sixty, plus six, actually symbolize Arabic words, and they mean "in the name of Allah,
Islam". Now, I want to show that this is not exactly correct. It's possible, but let's
look at another passage in Revelation, which shows that this is actually numerology. Revelation
17, verse 9. "And here is the mind which has wisdom." Notice the word "wisdom" again. "The
seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits. And they are seven kings."
Notice, seven heads, seven mountains, seven kings. So, it's very interesting to note.
that this passage is the second passage where Saint John uses the word "wisdom", and this
passage includes three sevens in a row, 7 7 7. This passage helps to explain the 6 6
6 passage. Now, I am not saying that Walid Shoebat is completely inaccurate by claiming
that chi, xi and sigma are also Arabic terms, but remember, the 7 7 7 definitely is a numerical
number, the same as 6 6 6. These two passages are related. But, the 7 7 symbol has a second
meaning, as St John himself explains; the seven heads are seven kings and seven mountains.
Therefore, it is very possible that 6 6 6 also has the double meaning that Walid Shoebat
is talking about. But, I still say, that the numerical interpretation is primary. 6 6 6
is extremely important, and it appears several times in the Old Testament. For example, King
Solomon's tribute was 666 in gold; and also, let's take a look at Daniel, where the king
made an idol to himself. Daniel 3, verse 1 "Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of
gold, whose height was threescore cubits," in other words 60 cubits, "and the breadth
thereof 6 cubits". Therefore this statue features the same number as the AntiChrist, that is
66. And, as I have explained on other programs, the wisdom and understanding of what 6 6 6
means, is that it is a decimal. Point 666, and that indicates 2 over 3, or two thirds,
and 2 symbolizes man; 3 symbolizes God. And when you put man over God, that is when you
get the number of the AntiChrist, and that number is 666. And if you'd like more information,
