The fact that the Pope has been going on his AC warning spree only tells me one thing..
Hes taking the focus off himself..
There is going to be a false prophet...
Rev 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 Pope is the only one with world influence in religion..
I wonder who its going to be..
I also see why the last Pope suddenly left, I wouldnt want to be the pope in those days either..
The Antichrist and false prophet are going to be Jewish, probably the false Messiah they are still waiting for and no doubt would appear as soon as the Jews have a foothold on society- which they have so far been succeeding in doing over the past few decades.
Their ties to anti-Christianity, militant secularism, and Zionism are pretty evidential in themselves, to. Even Jews warn about the Jews.
That's been the legitimate train of thought on the Antichrist for ages, though because the Jews have in fact gained such a foot hole, it's politically incorrect to tell it.
You'd be deemed antisemitic in a second, but not if you claim such things of the Church or Islam.
Which in itself is funny- protestants point to the Church or Islam.
Go figure
Benedict left because he didn't want the papacy anyway. He was too old and wanted to live it out in peace. The chair is not an easy position to be in.
Pope Francis wants to bring back the archaic values of Christianity. The antichrist is but one of many other things. He wants to bring back the traditional outlook of Christianity and put a stopper in this ridiculous progression currently plaguing Christendom collectively.
Yet again, you just show how warped your bias makes you.
Who do you think created the modern "ZIONIST" political nation state of Israel? The Vatican/Rothschild...the very creators of the UN through which they brought it about. The very same Federal - Vatican{creators of the Federal Reserve in 1913} Notice that the world has been at WAR since then. But the very same Federal-Vatican that fomented WW1 to bring about their "League of Nations". Is the very same Federal-Vatican began the NAZI movement through Hitler their main puppet through which they fomented WW2. Through which they brought about their "United Nations"The Antichrist and false prophet are going to be Jewish, probably the false Messiah they are still waiting for and no doubt would appear as soon as the Jews have a foothold on society- which they have so far been succeeding in doing over the past few decades.

Can you show me any prophecy linking Israel to the Antichrist and the False Prophet? Thats a new one for me..
Many people go the Vatican, it's the Christian center of the world. The pope gets involved with everything, just as they have for the past 1700 years, it is what they are supposed to do. You'll see leading Protestants and Muslims go in there as well.Dont you realize that the Jewish Prime Minister was just at the Vatican not even a week ago? Why is the pope getting involved in Israels affairs?
Oh yeah, the molestation crises that hit the Church.Personally, I think the Pope is using media to build up the papacies image in order to usher in the coming AC system, they will need the pope to help convince the religious world to accept him. You cant have that many priests sexually molesting little boys, only to have the papacy covering up as much as they can...
Yeah, there's a lot of those like yourself, and each and every single one of your interpretations are different.I came to Christ by reading my Bible, Im not part of any Church, I accepted Christ right where I am sitting now.
And Protestants were killing Catholics, Anglicans were killing both, and Puritans killed witches, and protestants owned slaves, and Calvin burned people publicly.The RCC was killing Protestants, so I dont care much for them.. I know my world history if anything..
I doubt very seriously you are going to do a better then job then ST. JEROME CIRCA 382AD.The Latin Vulgate has translation issues as well, I have the Greek and English to prove it. I suppose that doesnt matter, the Catholics arent big on Bible study, at least according to my wife, who is Catholic.
Oh yeah, the molestation crises that hit the Church.
It's just something for you to bash the Church with
Pro 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
This verse doesnt apply to me. Im a Christian...
Christ is the way, the truth, and the life..
Everything I do, I do in his name..
Every account of my own ministry will be reviewed by, and I will be held accountable directly to God.
How profound this interpretation! You're a Christian, okay, I can let you be yourself, but the scripture isn't defining any Christian, Muslim or Jew, rather it says man, and you put words into God's mouth? What the difference between mankind and an individual Christian?
The way that seems right to me is Jesus Christ..
Im not sure what you are looking for..
"The way that seems right to me is Jesus Christ."
According to scriptures and believing it as it says that the world is full of false christs and the whole world is deceived, I might ask then, which Christ? The scriptures tell me that no man is an exception to this, and no denomination was mentioned or defined as God is not a respecter of person's, rather he defines it as the 'whole world' of mankind.
"Im not sure what you are looking for."
This is because of your loss of perception in this thread. The title notes that the mark of the beast is 'decoded' but what have you decoded? You speak only of the location and the supposed nature of the 'mark' but nothing to decode it. Read your first post and point this out in case that I have missed it.
I thought the same when I spoke to you about this, what are you trying to accomplish with this thread that hasn't decoded the mark, itself? It should also identify the 'beast' which seems to be in debate, still; nothing decoded.
Wow, you sure can dance! Thanks
Sounds like another derailment, CP. Lol Thanks for the corrections, I'm a better Christian, now!
Oh, did we go off topic, I thought we were talking about the Mark of the Beast..
Is there another mark you are referring to?
Well, this seems to now be the debate, in spite of how the title misleads peoples about the mark being 'decoded'. I have lost your point of topic because it seems that whatever part of this discussion I address it seems to be off-topic. What then are you trying to say to the audience?
So, this said, I apologize for derailing your thread, seriously! Thanks
Would Jesus kiss a Qur'an?
Lol.
This.
Kissing the Quran had absolutely nothing to do with the Muslim faith. Muslim culture is not big on giving gifts, most especially something so priceless and holy to them as a Quran.
They gave him the book as a symbol of deep affection, and he kissed it to recognize and respect that leap of friendship.
To try to make that look evil or wrong is just plain idiotic, really just separates the sober Christians from the fringes.
Sorry, I dont kiss satanic handbooks and I dont pretend its "OK", but then again, The Pope is no different from a Muslim.
Neither know Jesus Christ personally so it doesnt really matter..
The ἄγαμος (G22)d, ἀγαθοεργέω (G14)th and an obsolete letter (4742 as a cross) of the Greek alphabet (intermediate between the ἀββα (G5)th and Ἄβελ (G6)th), used as numbers
4742. stigma stig'-mah from a primary stizo (to "stick", i.e. prick); a mark incised or punched (for recognition of ownership), i.e. (figuratively) scar of service:--mark.
Stigma (ϛ) is a ligature of the Greek letters sigma (Σ and tau (Τ, which was used in writing Greek between the Middle Ages and the 19th century. It is also used as a numeral symbol for the number 6. In this unrelated function, it is a continuation of the old letter digamma (originally Ϝ, cursive form ), which had served as a numeral since antiquity and was conflated with the σ-τ ligature in the minuscule handwriting of the Middle Ages.
Originally called wau, it was called digamma in classical Greek and episemon during the Byzantine era. It was conflated with the στ-ligature owing to the accidental similarities of their shapes. The association between the numeral 6 and the letter sequence στ became so strong that today, in Greece, the letter sequence ΣΤʹ or στʹ is often used in lieu of ϛʹ itself to write the number 6.
