Purpose Edition
Lamech named his son Noah, for he said, “May he bring us relief from our work and the painful labor of farming this ground that the LORD has cursed.”(1)
You know the number 6 might not be bad after all…There might just be a constructive evaluation to its relevance as well as the imperfect connotation to the number 6. Where the number 7 marks perfection and completion. The number 6 in some way marks change. The change that would thereafter bring completion and perfection in the form of the number 7.
Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made. (2)
The work was completed in 6 days but it was the rest that made it perfect. The rest from the work on the 7th day that was sanctified by God. The work was done in 6 days but at the point of 6 there was a change where the work was complete and the change began which brought rest and on the 7th day God rested. Which makes us to understand that the rest is the number of completion and perfection. But the change that first had to take place the completion of the work that led to that rest was found at the point of 6.
It makes you reconsider the significance and implications of the prophetic mark of the beast 666 signalling the end of all things according to the book of the Apocalypse revelations in a whole new light. The significance of the number 666 correlates to the change that would take place that would then began an age of rest. That would precede the age of completion. When old things will pass away and everything will be made new. The number 6 repeated 3 times representing the demonic trinity of Satan as the Father, the AntiChrist, the man of sin as the Son of God, the so called Promised Seed and the False Prophet as the Holy Spirit who gives power to the beast the Anti Christ.
So is 666 the number of man so bad after all… I mean except for the temporary dark age that comes with it's implications. as well as the man himself who falls short of it as he will be plucked by the Lord Jesus Himself into the lake that burns with brimstone and fire. But for those who believe and wait on the Lord the mark of the beast signifies the end of the work the end of the labour of all man and all creation throughout the sands of time paving way and giving birth to the Age of rest. The Age of completion and perfection. That not even the angels cast down, nor eyes have seen nor ears have heard what God has prepared for those who love Him and wait for His appearance. Yes so let’s look at the number 6 with new perspective, hope and understanding that it is just the precipice of the New Beginning and not the end. For those things that will come after once the work is complete.
