You will find no other book quite like this one. This is a great book and a quick read for anyone who is looking for a brief and concise explanation of the prophecies surrounding the second beast out of the earth in Revelation 13:11-18. The page count has been limited to 42 pages, and the price has been adjusted accordingly.There is a reason that 2000 years have passed without a viable solution to the riddle of 666 in Revelation 13:18. Simply put, it is a math riddle, but the theologians who are tasked with interpreting Scripture are generally more familiar with gematria than math. (Gematria is the process of adding up the values of the letters in a word.) When they can't figure out the math, they decide that it really isn't a math riddle and go with what they know best, which is gematria. The gematria approach to solving the riddle will be debunked.If you have already explored some of the theories that are out there on the number 666, but haven't been satisfied with the explanations, or else don't know what to believe, this book can help. It also covers all of the hot topics contained in Revelation 13:11-18. These include the number of a man, the first beast, the second beast, the number of the beast, the name of the beast, the number of the name of the beast, the mark of the beast, buying and selling, the image of the beast, fire from heaven, and the fatal wound to one of the heads that seemed to have been healed.It is estimated that between 50-75% of adults in the United States never quite master the concept of fractions, and of the 25-50% that do, fully 20% of them forget much of what they learned. This is not a math textbook, and does not contain any high-level math, but if you have very little tolerance for numbers, you may not want to purchase this book. The instruction in Revelation 13:18 is to "calculate the number of the beast" (NIV), and that can't be done without the application of some basic arithmetic.
