Beast has 7 heads (or leaders), and that “even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into<br />

perdition,” Lloyd believes that the 7th head of the UN, Kofi Annan, will not finish his term, and<br />

that Boutros-Ghali will be appointed to serve out the remainder of it.<br />

THE MARK OF THE BEAST<br />

The Number of His Name<br />

The Antichrist will use economic terrorism to force the people of the world to follow him.<br />

“And he (the False Prophet) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and<br />

bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might<br />

buy and sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his<br />

name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast:<br />

for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”<br />

(Revelation 13:16-18)<br />

“...If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in<br />

his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God ... And the smoke of their<br />

torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship<br />

the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.” (Revelation<br />

14:9-11)<br />

Many people believe that the number 666 will be his mark, but the Bible doesn’t make itself<br />

clear on that point. Six is the number of man, because he was created on the sixth day, and given<br />

six ‘days’ to live. The number 666 is the Satanic trinity, and will be the manner in which the<br />

Antichrist will be recognized.<br />

Iranaeus (140-202), Bishop of Lyons, a pupil of Polycarp (who was a student of the Apostle<br />

John), thought the number 666 was the Greek word “Lateinos”: L (30), A (1), T (300), E (5), I<br />

(10), N (50), 0 (70), S (200), which adds up to 666. The word means “Latin kingdom,” and it<br />

was later believed that this referred to the religion of the Vatican, because Latin is their official<br />

language, which is used in their canons, missals, prayers, and blessings.<br />

Rev. Jerry R. Church, founder and director of Prophecy in the News ministry in Oklahoma<br />

City, Oklahoma, reported that the Sumerians of Noah’s time, who lived in what is now southern<br />

Iraq, used a sexagesimal system of numerics, which means that their numerical system was based<br />

on the number six, instead of ten. He theorized that since all language had a common base, and<br />

civilization’s first numbering system was based on six, then a code could be devised to “count<br />

the number of the beast.” The English alphabet is based on the root value of six: 6” X 2= 1 foot,<br />

6” X 6= 1 yard, 6 ‘forties’ = 1 section, 6 sections X 6= 1 township, 1 township = a 6 square mile<br />

area, etc. What he came up with was an alphanumeric code: A = 6, B = 12, C = 18, D = 24, E =<br />

30, F = 36, etc. Using this code, he discovered that various words and sequences or words, such<br />

as ‘Mark of the Beast,’ ‘Computer,’ and ‘New York’ were equivalent to the numerical value of<br />

666.<br />

The number 666 became quite prominent in order to get people familiar with it, and to<br />

eliminate the evil connotations that the number has. Listed below are only some of the areas
