Nimrod, who built the tower of Babel, is often pictured holding three bolts of lightning in his hand, a symbol of power, but it also represents three sixes, the hidden mystery number. All pagan deities use the thunderbolt, called ‘the weapon of the gods’. 14     

The three bolts of lightning are often portrayed as three wavy lines, and seen in many unusual places.

The numbers 1, 6, 12, 18, 36, 111, and 666 are the most sacred numbers in ancient Astrology.  “Priests of sun worship used the numbers mathematically by the way the stars travel across the sky to predict future events.  They invented magic charts to perform this most popular form of divination.”  15

The number 666 is “the summary of all the magic of the ancient world…”.  16

It is a secret message from Satan. He took the number representing man -- 6 (created on 6th day), repeated it three times (representing the Deity -- Father, Son and Holy Spirit) saying, “Ye shall be as gods” – 666.   Then he gave it to his representative the Antichrist who “sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.”  17

In Bible Numerics, there is no sacredness to the numbers, but in occult Numerology, which is the devil’s counterfeit, God’s numbering system has become sacrosanct and mysterious, making it totally evil.  One remains truth, the other a falsehood.

It is vital for the reader to understand that the number 666 represents the religion of Babylon, not just as an ancient long-gone philosophy, but a current, devilish practise that has all the demons of hell behind it.

We should absolutely refuse to be involved with this number in anything that limits our essential freedoms, whether that be in buying or selling, family sacredness, freedom of speech, and especially religion.

Do not allow the symbols of paganism to have any place in your worship of God.   Cast them out at once.

In the pagan mysteries, the secret symbols were an invitation to the controlling power of Satan.  And there is power in this occult religion, a power that will ultimately destroy those who follow it.

In these last days of the twentieth century, the number of the secret mysteries of Babylon is embodied in a man who will instigate a terrible time of persecution.

Today he is almost at the pinnacle of his power, and the 666 symbol is flagrantly used everywhere.  It is also covertly concealed in places where we would least expect it – in government bodies, churches, secular organisations, jewellery, books, magazines, even flashed on television.

Once the idea is fixed in your mind, you will begin to see the number everywhere, both overt and covert.

Even barcodes have three sixes hidden within – the double lines on each side, and the one in the middle.  Notice the trademarks of many public offices that have three interconnected symbols within a triangle – 60x60x60 degrees. (The ancients ignored the zeros)

If you keep your eyes open, you will find them everywhere.

As has been stated before, “When we see these, we have reason to suspect 666 is being concealed.”  18

After a United States televised speech by Justice Warren Christopher to the United Nations on October 7, 1995, there appeared on the screen a triangle with the number 666 in it, without comment.  It appeared and then it was gone!  19 

Another interesting way the number 666 can be discovered is by using the English alphabet and marking it by sixes:  A=6, B=12, C=18 etc.  In this way English names can be numbered, such as New York, headquarters of the United Nations, equaling 666.

In witchcraft, the number 9 is the most powerful number.  It is an inverted symbol for 6.  It is 3+3+3.   It is the total of the degrees of a circle 3+6+0, and it identifies with death in spiritism.

“In the occult, mirror images, inverted forms and back masking are used continually.  Some witches and wizards even perfect the art of speaking backwards.  Pig-Latin also has its roots in witchcraft…” 20

In the United States, three areas of life have been made 9 digits:   the “universal banking system number”, the “social security number”, and the “zip (postcode) number”.  At present the American postcode has 5 digits, but gradually a further 4 are being added, and mail will not be processed unless all 9 are given. 21

There are also plans to add another 9 digits, making 18 altogether.  (three sixes!)  The first three will specify the 666 System;  the second three the country code (made up to three with zeros);  the third three the telephone area code; and the last nine the social security number.  This will easily identify a person’s country, region, and identity.   It will be a “triumvirate of power as a spy network.”  22

This same principle is seen in the pyramid symbol on the cover of ‘Countdown 2000’.  The picture is from the American one dollar note, placed on the dollar bill in 1938 from the Great Seal of the United States.

 The name NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, counted in Roman numbers comes to 665, and adding 1000 to the last number, makes 666.  The placing of the capstone on the pyramid will usher in the millennial reign of the power of 666.  (Remember, zeros are ignored)

It is interesting that the original Roman numbers 1, V, X, L, C, D equalled the ‘sacred’ number of paganism.  1 = 1, V = 5, X = 10, L = 50, C = 100, D = 500, totalling 666.   (M = 1000 was not in the original system)

Another incredible fact is in rearranging the original six letters, it is possible to form two words:  DIC LUX.  This is a Latin phrase meaning ‘Speak, Light”.  Lux is the ‘god of light’ in all the Secret Mysteries, and it is the title of Satan.   The name Lucifer comes from the Latin ‘lux’ and ‘fero’, the ‘light bearer’. 23   

The term DIC LUX was very likely a mystic phrase used in calling on the god to speak, possibly to thunder and cast his bolt of lightning. All mystics claims their god can cause fire or lightning to come from the sky.

The Roman numerals at the base of the pyramid also hold a subtle reference to 666 – MDCCLXXV1.  The date is 1776, purporting to be the year of American Independence, is also the year of the formation of the Illuminati, the secret society planning the New World Order.  As there are many other hidden symbols in this picture, we can be fairly confident the Conspirators are giving their message of 666.

The last two Roman numerals (V1), which stand for the 6 in 1776, are coincidently the same as the first day of the fifth month, called Beltaine, the highest day in witchcraft.


                M  D  C        C  L  X         X  V  1
                   M                 C                   X    

                1000            100                10            =       1110

              D        C       L        X         V       1         =        666


The words ANNUIT COEPTIS, meaning ‘announcing the birth of’, add up to 111, that sacred number of Astrology.  Also count the layers of bricks in the pyramid, and you will find the number representing Satan and evil, a sacred coven number in witchcraft. 

The bird on the American dollar note also contains many symbols of the secret societies and witchcraft, and if you count the numbers, you will find they too are significant.

We can put them down to chance, but there are too many to be coincidence.

But what about the number of the man of Bible prophecy?

Who is he?

His identity will be detailed in another chapter, however, a number of titles are given to show that his name equals 666.   The Bible said the ‘sacred’ number of Babylon was the “number of a man” -- “the number of his name.”  24    It is found in the numbering system of Latin, Greek and Hebrew.


Latin  -- Vicarius filli Dei  -- Vicar of the Son of God

    V    I     C     A     R    I     U    S          F     I    L     L    I        D     E     I

    5    1  100    -     -     1     5     -          -     1   50  50   1      500   -     1  =  666


Greek --  Lateinos  --  The Latin Man

                             L    A     T      E       I      N     O       S

                            30   1   300    5     10    50    70   200    =   666


Lateinos is the Greek spelling for the ‘Latin-speaking Man’ or ‘Latin Man’.   The name ‘Latin’ is derived from the early Romans.  It was the name of the Sun-god the Romans worshipped.  Hence the Romans, to identify themselves with their Sun-god, adopted their god’s name, calling themselves Latins.  25  


Greek –   He Latine Basileia  -- The Latin Kingdom

  H    e      L      A     T       I       N      e       B     A       S      I      L     E      I       A

   -     8     30    1   300   10     50     8       2      1     200  10   30    5    10     1 = 666  


Hebrew  --                        (Romiith) – Roman Kingdom

                                600     6     40    10     10    400   =   666


At present we are considering the “number of  the beast”,  a pagan symbol that is being flaunted everywhere throughout society.  Although we must refuse to have anything to do with it in our religious life, we will find it impossible to completely avoid it in our secular lives.  For instance, our clocks are based on Babylonian astrology – 60 seconds make a minute, 60 minutes make an hour.  The names of the days of the week are from Babylon.  Imperial measurements are from Babylon.

However, a person does not receive the ‘number of the beast’ by using a Babylonian time-frame, going to work on Woden’s day, sending mail with 9 digits, or by using a telephone service with a hidden symbol of the 666.  And no one will receive the number of the beast by buying petrol or gas from companies owned by the Conspirators.  They own most of them.

We must understand that the number 666, in any form, is pagan, and that the man who heads the beast system is also pagan, irrespective of what he, or his system, claims to be.  Not until world power is achieved, and the image set in place, will the NUMBER be  assigned.

It will be given to all who make a choice to serve the man with the number 666.  It may be by laser, it may be biochip.  It will possibly be 18 digits, perhaps in three sections.  It will be a literal number, as it is the means of control.  It may be on the forehead or the right hand, but it will be related to a decision to obey the beast.  

Obedience constitutes worship.

The Bible states that only a faithful remnant will refuse to worship the beast and his image, and will not have the number, the name, or the mark.  As a result, these people will not be able to buy or sell.   26     It will be a decision with tremendous consequences.

In later chapters, identification marks will be listed to reveal the “name and the mark of the beast”,  then you must  remember  that the kingdom identified is not what it claims to be, but instead a part of that Babylonian secret mystery religion.

Do not be deceived, 666 is the NUMBER of the beast, and all who have it are marked men and women, doomed to receive the wrath of God.   27

One secret society writer has declared that “all the mysteries have their origin beneath the branches of the Tree of Knowledge, and it appears that no truer words were ever written.  Every thread in the worldwide fabric of sun-serpent-devil worship appears to have been spun in the shade of this same tree, and the design in the cloth appears to have been worked out in detail by the master Deceiver himself. 

Although man’s language was confused at the Tower of Babel, each little group appears to have carried forth blueprints of the 6-sex-serpent-devil worship drawn by Satan himself.”  28  

The devil plans to trap the unwary.

 “There are many who have never had an opportunity to hear the special truths for this time…  He who reads every heart and tries every motive will leave none who desire a knowledge of the truth, to be deceived as to the issues of the controversy.  The decree is not to be urged upon the people blindly.  Everyone is to have sufficient light to make his decision intelligently… When the final test shall be brought to bear upon men, then the line of distinction shall be drawn between those who serve God and those who serve Him not.”  29

A word to the wise:   Stay away from the number 666.

Chapter 1


The Number


“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.

'That will be $6.66 thank you.  Six, six, six, the number of the Antichrist.'  I was on a cash register, and when I told my customer, she replied, 'Oh, we don’t want that!'

What is the secret of this mysterious number?

Our oldest knowledge of the triple six is from Babylon, a number sacred to the Babylonian priesthood. It may even go back further, to the Tower of Babel.  Later, at the end of the first century, the Bible writer John referred to it as “the number of a man”.

Today heavy metal rock groups have incorporated this number into their music, little realising the danger of adopting a symbol of Babylonian worship.  Its evil significance portrays the ‘dark side’ of music, the realm of Satan, and many of the lyrics clearly give this message. 

In Greek, the transliterated name for Satan is Teitan, and using the Greek value of the letters it equals the hidden number of the Secret Mystery religions.  T = 300, E = 5, 1 = 10,  T = 300, A = 1, N = 50 = 666.  In English, Titan means ‘person of great power or intellect’, and Satan certainly fits this description. 1

In Babylon, the word STUR OR STVR was used to hide the ‘sacred’ number, for in Chaldean and Hebrew, Samay = 60;  Tav = 400;  Vav = 6;  Resh = 200, a total of 666. 2

Babylonian priests wore an amulet with the sacred number encoded in mathematics. Each column adds up to 111 from any direction. There are six squares in each column, equalling 666.  If you add all the numbers from 1 to 36, they will add up to the same symbolic number.  3

                                                                            6+32+3+34+35+1 = 111

                                                                            7+11+27+28+8+30 = 111

                                                                           19+14+16+15+23+24 = 111

                                                                           18+20+22+21+17+13 = 111

                                                                           25+29+10+9+26+12 = 111

                                                                           36+5+33+4+2+31 = 111

                                      

In the language of Babylon  (Chaldean), the letter S represents the number 6.  It is said simply as SS, or after vowels were added SAS, SUS of SASH.  In Syrian it is AS, in Sanscrit SAB, in Egyptian SAS, Greek HEX, Latin SEX, German SECHS, Norwegian SHEST, Spanish SEIS.  Other languages are very similar. 4

The letter S also has links to serpent worship, as the hissing sound of the letter implies.

In Egyptian hieroglyphics, the letters S and Z stand for the serpent, and in Greek mythology, the Z (valued as 7), stands for the seven-headed serpent of the sky, “a symbol of the seven fate-controlled planets… in the Babylonian astrological system.” 5    The letter N also stands for the serpent, as it is the Z on its side.

In Egyptian religious art, the voice of the serpent deity is presented by a series of V’s or Y’s coming from its mouth.  Our letters U and Y are descended from the Hebrew/Chaldean forked VAV, the Y being a symbol of the serpent’s forked tongue.

In Chaldean and Hebrew, and in fact, the whole family of the Oriental languages, the letter     , said  VV prior to vowels, and VAV,  VIV  or WAW after vowels, represents 6.  The letter W is also 6, or 66, as it is formed from two V Vs. 6

The 6th letter of the Greek language was originally called the STIGMA, but it was dropped, perhaps because it was so close to another S letter called the SIGMA (    ).   

With the dropping of the STIGMA, the ZETA (Z) became the 6th letter.  The Z is now used interchangeably, representing 6 and 7. The letter N also stands for 6.  7

Another Greek letter used for 6 is M.  It had originally been number 13, but with the dropping of the STIGMA, it became the twelfth letter (6x2=12)   It is a very deceptive letter, as it is not only the SIGMA (    ) on its side, but also covertly two VV’s upsidedown.  It is widely used as a symbol for S.  8

The double M monogram AVM is a “sacred word connected with the rites of serpent worship among Hindus, Buddhists, ancient Egyptians, and modern secret societies.”  9

The AVM is made up of a V inverted with a stroke as A; then a V, actually making VV inverted and joined as M, thus making a double M.   This word is often written as AUM, and repeated as a mantra.

The Hindus place the AVM in the serpent with his tail in his mouth “a symbol meaning the circuit of the zodiac, immortality, an unending line, and the union of the sexes”. 10  This is where the wedding ring originated, and later the engagement and other rings.  It is a sign of allegiance to the serpent.

This unending line of the serpent biting its tail introduces another letter – the O, or the circle. “The circle with a point in the centre, is a phallic symbol representing the Universe and the Sun-god.” 11


The number 6 is also sacred to the sun. “There was an intimate connection between the worship of the sun, the worship of sex, and the worship of the serpent in the ancient religion of Babylon, a religion that permeated the religions of the whole world.”  12

With this background, we can see that the number 6 and 666 can be hidden in many different ways – SSS, YYY, VVV, WV, FFF, WWW, ZZZ, OOO.  “When we see these, we have reason to suspect 666 is being concealed.”  13
