The prophet's dictionary guide to the supernatural

1379. Six—The number of flesh and humanity. Genesis 1:27–31; Revelation 13:18. 1380. Six, Six, Six (666)—The number in the book of Revelation for the unholy triad of Satan’s dominion: the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet (Revelation 16:13). Revelation 13:18 says expressly that it is the number of the beast, which corresponds with or translates to the number of a man. The image of this beast is a hybrid dragon and lamb; that is, a serpent or snake in a lamb’s body, or more precisely with the horns of a lamb, to emulate the harmless undefiled Lamb of God that Christ represents. This beast is an offspring of the first beast to arise from the sea of people on the earth, who was wounded and healed. (Revelation 13:1–18) The two form a team where signs and wonders profusely pervade the planet, enamoring its inhabitants with them. The second beast leads a campaign to celebrate the first beast with an immortalized image. Idolatry at this point is now permanently engrained in the mind-set of the culture. The dragon-speaking lamb empowers the image to further intensify their false and fatal worship, and fortify the idolatrous mind-set of the entire world culture. Having become a consolidated world power, the imaged beast brands his disciples with his signature by a blend of blackmail and bribery. If they want to eat, sleep, live, and so forth they must wear his name on them. The mark is more than a simple stamp; it is embedded in the texture of the person’s skin and is apparently visible and invisible at once. The image is imprinted numerically but calculating it translates to the beast’s name. The term used for the process of imprinting makes it the equivalent of an automated etching system. The words used for these beasts show them to be a mingling of mammal and reptile; that is, with the brutality and savagery of a land mammal and the poisonous venom of a snake or sea creature. That they come up out of water not only speaks to their arising from the sea of people covering the face of the earth, but also that they arise from the fluid rather than solid elements of both creation, humanity, and society. See Beast, Mark of the. 1381. Sixth Sense—A contemporary term to express the soul’s sense. Psychics and occultists draw from their sixth sense to touch and interact with the invisible worlds of God’s creation. Six is the number of a man, and the beast of the end of the age. Therefore, the number represents the rule of the flesh witnessed in human and secular dominance. See Seventh Sense. 1382. Skill—Competence, proficiency, and expertise in one’s field of
