Evidence for God from Science

If you like arithmetic, you'll love this.

Considering that the rockefellers are my 2nd cousins I would like to think that they are not the anti-christ.

I could come up with some wack-o formula to make my name spell 666, but that does not make me the anti christ does it?

Im sure god will make it pretty ovious what 666 means when the time comes......

My full name is Robert Wilson Strain.

666 counted in Hebrew is WWW.
Using any other way of counting letters leads to numerous possible answers and thus no definite identity.
Using any other language doesn't make sense.

So does that mean the world wide web is the anti-christ??

666 is the number of the Beast of Revelation.
This information is provided from God, Revelation 13:18, for a reason.
I believe the reason is to reveal the hidden identify of the Beast which comes out of the "sea" of humanity.
"This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate (count) the number of the beast, for it is man's number."
Count to the 6th letter of the Hebrew alphabet which is Vav, V or W. Prior to 1990 and the advent of the Internet, there was no commonly recognizable 3 letter identity VVV or WWW.
Is it Whisky Wine Women or is it something far more pervasive and dangerous? "This calls for wisdom."

If it wasn't for www, we wouldn't be here on this forum.

Without Adolf Hitler we would not have Volkswagens. So what?
People will believe whatever they want to believe, but God's word says what it says, believe it or not.
If you believe in some wacky complex formula of gematria to discern an answer to this great biblical mystery, then you might believe like some that the "beast" is Ronald Wilson Reagan or Barney the Purple Dinosaur, or so many others I've heard.
If it was easy so easy to see, understand and accept, why does the scripture call for a man "with wisdom/insight"?

Are you saying that the world wide web, is the anti-christ spoken of in Revelation? I just want to be sure I'm understanding you correctly.
I'm confused. Why would we use the 6th letter of the Hebrew alphabet? Was the original text of the book of Revelation, where the number of the beast is mentioned, written in Hebrew?

And, before you answer, the number of the beast is six hundred sixty-six. not 6-6-6.

The word "antichrist" is not used in Revelation.
666 is a number which somehow identifies the "beast". Apparently, counting or calculation is involved.
I contend that Hebrew is the accepted biblical language, the language of Jesus. Though Jesus spoke Aramaic and the new testament was written in Koine greek, Hebrew is still the language of Israel and of Jesus and still spoken today. Although there is some dispute about who wrote Revelation, obviously he was Jewish. If you prefer classical Greek, Latin or French to calculate an answer, try it.
As to the way the number was written depends on which manuscript you read. In one manuscript it is written as 666 and in another it is spelled out as 6 hundred 66.
Please note that this number does not designate a numerical value such as 1600 talents of gold, but is used to designate an identity, like 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Is it possible that some global computer network, that some unification of people and their thinking machines might somehow attain an individual "mind" of it's own?
Is it possible for a thinking machine to sin? Seems possible to me.
Is the Internet fully developed to the point where it controls what we buy and sell? No, not yet.
Does some world leader require us to "worship" any global computer network? Not yet.
Do sinful men always find a way to create their own god while ignoring the true creator? Yep.

Ok, carpentersson, I see where you're coming from, now.

Outstanding!
Most folks can't get their mind around the idea of a man-made thing becoming sentient, that is having moral decision making abilities, the ability to perceive of God, but we know that others besides human beings can think and sin too, ie. angels, demons, etc. It is our thinking ability that sets us apart from the animals, in our minds is the intersection of the physical and spiritual dimensions. It was from growing in knowledge that we were first able to "walk" with God, and from eating from the "tree" (the upward growth) of the knowledge of good and evil that we first became separated from God.
I discovered this theory about the "beast" somewhat strangely, sort of coming in the back door.
When something doesn't make sense, I start asking all kinds of questions.
Why does the bible refer to a beast if it means only an individual man?
If the beast is not a man, then what could it be that has the ability to think, to speak, to sin and even be sent to hell?
Does God create the "beast" or is it a manmade thing or who created it?
If there is some creation of men that can think and speak, what is it?
The unholy trinity, the dragon, the beast and the false prophet are all cast into hell, but no nation has an eternal spirit to be cast into hell.
And what kingdom, nation, ruler or entity could have the sort of world wide powers given to the "beast"?

No one super computer or even network of computers has this level of power yet, but I can see the possibility and with the exponential growth rate of technology, I can see it happening very soon.
So, I asked if there was any kind of global man made thing that might someday have the ability to think and speak and have a living spirit. I knew of the internet so I went to the library to search about computers and found it is named World Wide Web which is commonly written as WWW, like the horns of an animal or the V sign the youngsters always make nowdays with two fingers, the symbol of devil horns.
I looked to see what numerical value WWW might have in the biblical language Hebrew and guess what? 666

Not saying I buy into this(yet?),but I see from where you're coming.
