Who Is The Beast Whose Number Is 666?—The Beast from Revalation 17

Who Is the Beast Whose Number is 666?


This beast person whose number is 666 is the Son of Perdition (Son of Satan) spoken of in II Thessalonians 2:4 and will be the Pope who sits himself up as God here on earth.


II Thessalonians 2:3-4


3 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;”



4 “Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”


The number of his name will be 666.


This Pope will set himself up as God and a new Pope will take his position as the Pope. This Beast Person and the new Pope will be the Beast and False Prophet spoken of in Revelation 16:13, Revelation 19:20, Revelation 20:10.


Revelation 16:13, “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.”


Revelation 19:20, “And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.”


Revelation 20:10, “ And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”


They will be Satan’s counterfeits of God and Jesus.


The Beast Whose Number Is 666 and The Catholic Church:


The Catholic Church is a universal Christian Church which uses pagan beliefs and practices in it’s worship of the Lord.


The Lord will not accept this.


The Pope claims power over God’s Word here on earth.


The Babylonians worshiped the sun, the moon, and the stars.


The Babylonians divided each of the twelve houses of the zodiac into three rooms making thirty six in all. They then divided the entire remainder of the sky into thirty six constellations and appointed the ruling god of each constellation to rule over one of the thirty six rooms of the zodiac.


The spirits of the departed were believed to go to and dwell in the stars; a teaching still much alive today. There was therefore not a spirit in the heavens nor a star in the sky which was not represented in the thirty six rooms of the zodiac.

To swear by the number thirty six was to swear by every god in the heavens above as well as by all the spirits of the departed.


The thirty-six gods were called decans because each ruled over ten degrees of the zodiacal circle and over ten days of the three hundred-sixty day year.


The Babylonians therefore had thirty six gods and they believed that the use of the number of each god gave them power over that god.


The addition of the number of their gods one through thirty six equals 666.

The Babylonians made amulets with a six by six matrix of the numbers one through thirty six on them. They arranged the numbers in such a way that the sum of any row, column, or diagonal is 111 and therefore the sum of all six rows or columns was 666.


The Babylonian worshipped the sun, moon, and stars. This is idolatry and devil worship.

The principle behind devil worship is fear. The Babylonians believed that the gods


were evil and that all misfortune, sickness, and death were caused by the gods.


The Babylonians carried an amulet with them. They believed that the numbers on the amulet and the sum of the numbers 666 gave them power over all the gods.


Their worship was to placate the gods so they offered their most cherished possessions to the gods – sometimes even their own children.


Our God is a God of love and we honor and praise Him always.


We pray to our Father that His will be done. We know He loves us and we know that all good things come from Him.


If our will was always done, then we would have control over our Father. He could not chastise us and mold us into what He would have us be.


The Beast, the Pope, and the hierarchy of the Catholic Church; believe the use of the number 666 gives them power over all gods, including our Heavenly Father.


The Beast Whose Number is 666 and the Beast of Revelation 17:


The Beast Leader of the revived Roman Empire in Revelation 13 whose number is 666 and the Beast Leader in Revelation 17 are the same person.


The Beast in Revelation 13:1-4 has seven heads, ten horns, and ten crowns upon the horns.


The Beast in Revelation 17 has seven heads, ten horns, and no crowns upon the horns.


The beast person of Revelation 17 is the Apollyon of Revelation 9:11.


Revelation 9:11, “And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.”


Apollyon is one of the fallen angels spoken of in Jude 6.


Jude 6, “And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.”


Apollyon is the beast that was, is not, and yet is.


Revelation 17:8, “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.”


Apollyon was (locked in the bottomless pit), is not (not locked up, is released), and yet is (can only do what the Lord will permit).


Apollyon is released at the Lord’s command. Satan could not release Apollyon from the bottomless pit.


The fifth angel of the seventh seal sounds, a star from heaven opens the bottomless pit and the locusts of the bottomless pit are released.


Revelation 9:1-3


1 “And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.”


2 “And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.”


3 “And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.”

Apollyon realizes that Satan has deceived him causing him to be bound in the bottomless pit.


Apollyon rebels against Satan.


The Lord uses Apollyon and the locusts to torment the men who do not have the seal of God in their foreheads.


Revelation 9:4-5


4 “And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.”


5 “And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.”


Apollyon rebels against Satan and is now tormenting Satan’s own followers.


Matthew 12:25-26


25 “And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.”


26 “And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?”


This is Apollyon, son of Satan, rebelling against his father, Satan.

This is the first woe.


Revelation 9:12, “One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.”


The second woe is the slaying of one third of men killed by an army of two hundred thousand thousand.


Revelation 9:12-18


12 “One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.”


13 “And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,”


14 “Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.”


15 “And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.”


16 “And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.”


17 “And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.”


18 “By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.“


During the second woe The Little Book will be revealed, and the Church will be purged. The King of the North shall come against the King of the South, the two Witnesses will be killed, come back to life, and ascend up to Heaven.


The third woe follows the second woe quickly and is the seven last plagues that fill up the wrath of God.


Revelation 11:14-15


14 “The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.”


15 “And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.”


Revelation 15:1, “And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.”


This beast person, Apollyon, is spoken of in II Thessalonians 2:3-4, Revelation 11:7, and Revelation 17:8.


2 Thessalonians 2:3-4


3 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;”


4 “Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”


Revelation 11:7, “And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, (the two witnesses) and shall overcome them, and kill them.”


Revelation 17:8, “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.”


Apollyon as the beast whose number is 666, is spoken of in Revelation 13:17-18.


Revelation 13:17-18


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.”


18 “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.”


Apollyon becomes the Pope of the Catholic Church.


Satan duplicates the Lord in many ways as shown throughout the Bible.

Jesus has seven Churches. Satan would have seven Churches.


Revelation 1:19-20


19 “Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;”


20 “The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.”


The Great Red Dragon in Revelation 12:3 is Satan.


Revelation 12:1-3


1 “And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:”


2 “And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.”


3 “And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.”

Satan’s seven heads are his seven churches.


Satan’s ten horns are the ten end time kings that will give their power and strength unto Satan.


Revelation 17:12-14


12 “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”


13 “These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.”


14 “These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”


The seven crowns are Satan’s seven angels: one over each church.


The seven heads in Revelation 17:9 are seven mountains. A mountain is a church. The seven mountains in Revelation 17:9 are Satan’s seven churches down through the years.


Revelation 17:9, “And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.” (The woman is the Catholic Church)


Isaiah 2:1-3


1 “The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.”


2 “And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord‘s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.”


3 “And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.”


See Isaiah 56:7.


Each of Jesus’ Churches has an Angel as shown in Revelation 1:20.


Each of Satan’s Churches would have one of Satan’s Angels.


Apollyon as Pope and head of the Catholic Church will receive a deadly wound and be healed. This Pope is the head that is wounded to death.


Revelation 13:3,14


3 “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.”


14, “And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.”


Apollyon, after he is healed of his deadly wound will declare himself to be God. This will vacate the seat of the Pope and a new Pope will be selected.


The new Pope will be the false prophet spoken of in Revelations 16:13, 19:20, and 20:10.


Revelation 16:13, “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.”


Revelation 19:20, “And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.”


Revelation 20:10, “And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”


The seven kings of Revelation 17:10 represents Satan’s seven angels over his seven churches.


Apollyon is the angel of Satan’s seventh Church which makes him one of the seven kings of Revelation 17:10.


Revelation 17:10, “And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.”

The first five churches have come and gone.


One is here now (the sixth) and one is to come (the seventh).

Each church represents a time frame or era in Satan’s church down through the years.


Each church has an angel for that time period the same as God’s church.

Study the letter, “The Seven Churches”.


Apollon, as the Pope, will receive a deadly wound and this will end the seventh church which he is the angel over.


Apollyon will be healed of his deadly wound, and he will later start Satan’s eighth church.


Apollyon, as leader of the ten kingdoms that destroy the great whore of Revelation 17 (Catholic Church) will not have a good relationship with the Pope.


Apollyon will remove the Pope from office and take the Pope’s position upon himself.


Apollyon will now have authority over church and state.


All down through the centuries the Roman Emperor and the Pope could not get along.


Each thought he had control over the other and now Apollyon will have complete control.


Apollyon was Satan’s angel of the seventh church and now he will be the angel of Satan’s eighth church.


This will fulfill Revelation 17:11.


Revelation 17:11, “And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.”


Apollyon will magnify himself above every god including his father, Satan, and our Heavenly Father .


Daniel 11:36-37


36 “And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.”


37 “Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.”


II Thessalonians 2:4


Apollyon rebels against his father, Satan, the same as Lucifer, (Satan) rebelled against his Father and Creator, the Lord.


Apollyon shall have accomplices.


Daniel 11:38-39


38 “But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.”


39 “Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.”


Ephesians 6:12, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”


Apollyon will be the leader of the ten kings shown in Revelation 17:12-13.


Revelation 17:12-13


12 “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”


13 “These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.”

Apollyon and the ten kings will destroy the Catholic Church.


The Catholic Church is the wife of Satan as Israel was the wife of the Lord and as the church will be the bride of Christ.


This is Apollyon rebelling against his father, Satan.


Revelation 17:16-17


16 “And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.”


17 “For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.”


The Beast Kingdom of Revelation 13:1-2 has seven heads, ten horns, and ten crowns upon the horns.


The Beast Leader in Revelation 17 has these seven heads and ten horns but no crowns for the horns.


The Beast of Revelation 17 has ten horns which are ten kings. These ten kings will arise out of Europe. These ten kings which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast..”


Daniel 7:11-12


11 “I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.”


12 “As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.”

The seven crowns for the seven heads in Revelation 12:3 are Satan’s angels for his seven churches.


Who is the Beast of Revelation 13:11?


In the near future the Pope of the Catholic Church will proclaim himself to be God above all. After he does this a new Pope will be selected.


This new Pope will be the beast shown in Revelation 13:11.


Revelation 13:11: “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.”


Horns are a symbol of strength.


The Pope has two horns like a lamb, and he speaks as a dragon.


The two lamb like horns of the Pope means that the Pope does not have the strength to enforce his will.


The Pope speaks like the Beast before him.


Revelation 13:12, “And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.”


The Pope will perform miracles such as make fire come down from heaven and make the image of the Beast speak. He has no real enforcement power of his own.


Revelation 13:13, “And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,”


Revelation 13:15, “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.”


It has always been this way. The Pope and the Roman Emperor could not agree on who had power over the other. When the Pope had a problem, he would have to get someone else to do his fighting. He has no real enforcement power of his own.


This Pope is the False Prophet shown in Revelation 16:13, 19:20, and 20:10.


Revelation 16:13: “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.”


Revelation 19:20: “And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.”


Revelation 20:10: “And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”
