Theory on the Importance of 6 and 7

[Mozart's Starling]

So my brain has been into overdrive since accepting Christ and letting him do his work with me. My mind has been on this since them. As far as I am aware 6 is the number of Satan and represents all he stands for. 7 represents perfection aka God/Jesus. I have an idea. 6 is destruction because it is a mockery of the trinity as it inverses it and has no guidance. 6 is 1 less than 7. Satan is no true ruler, just a prideful jokester who mocks all he sees. So all he has is the inversed trinity. The Father, The Son, and the Holy Ghost but only considering himself and bowing to no one, resulting in eternal damnation. 7 represents the trinity, which God has all of his followers strive to embody though as imperfect beings that cannot happen and I believe that why God loves us so. We are his children who want nothing more to learn and please him, and in turn he teaches us and loves us right back with uncomprehending ferocity and devotion, he wants to watch us eternally grow, and that is love at its purest. So 7 is a trinity with ultimate authority to guide it. Now you are wondering I am sure you are wondering how in either case I get 6 from 3. Multiply by 2. The 2 representing the male and female equvalent of the soul who nurture eachother as equals rather than subordinates to God. Thoughts?

Overdrive is ok MS
You sound like a new Christian and it's very exciting.

6 is short of seven and can never be as good as seven. It always falls short.

It's ok to get these lucid thought every now and then.

But since you're a new Christian, I hope that besides all these thoughts, you also study the Bible and Christianity and the history of the church and some good theologians.

I hope you have a good study Bible.
Maybe the Zondervan NIV?
New International Version.

So many books to read to...

Perfect. I love reading. I actually used to be a very devoted Christian in my youth. Read the Bible twice over in a short time and became horrified by what I read on Revelations. Scarred me at the time honestly. Glad to be back after a good 19 years of, well Godlessness. Bit over eager most likely lol.

You love reading.
How about:
Who Moved the Stone, F. Morrison
Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis

Did you ever read The Screwtape Letters,. Also by C.S. Lewis.
It's so good to understand how Satan operates.

Although some don't like The Shack because it's not very scriptural, I enjoyed it. It helped me, in a simple way, to understand the Trinity better.

Must go. In a different time zone .

Will check into it. Thanks for being so helpful!

I'm not sure on the number 6, but the number 7 has a lot of different uses through the whole Bible.

I was just reading in Joshua yesterday and how they marched around Jericho. It's very interesting to study numbers. They are one of Gods creations too.

I do enjoy reading your posts. I would like to add to the numbers discussion that:
One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It's the loneliest number since the number one
Three Dog Night~

Gotcha!

Here's something my favorite aunt, Lina, told me many moons ago.
Meglio soli
Che mal' accompagnati

It means that it's better to be alone
than with someone who is not good for you.

Thus, yeah, Two can be the loneliest number since the number One!

I thought 6 meant man in scripture. Symbolizing man and human weakness, along with the evils of Satan and the manifestation of sin. Man was created on the 6th day, and appointed 6 days to labor...

Wondering gives you great advice to read that Word! Might I suggest always praying for enlightenment from the Holy Spirit before you read> That's a great practice because the Holy Spirit will teach us through His Word. John 16:13

Don't let religious Christians talk you out of believing the truth, when you read and the HS teaches you things. Many wont believe that the HS may teach you things that are not plainly in scripture, but He does, and He will for you too.

1 John 2:27
But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.../

7 is the number of God.

Aunt Lina is a smart lady.

Revelation is scary to me too. Try listening to it via the NIV Dramatized version by Zondervan here.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

As far as I am aware 6 is the number of Satan

Actually, 6 is the number for man who was created on the 6th day. (Gen 1:27, 31)
The Antichrist is identified as having the number 666. In the Hebrew symbolic or cryptic use of numbers, 666 is the number of Nero's name. (Similarly, 14 is the number of David's name. We see that number 3 times in the opening genealogy of Matthew's Gospel.)

What would be the mark of him that people take/took?

What would be the mark of him that people take/took?

Rev 14:11 And the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name."

Rev 13:17-18 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number, its number is six hundred and sixty-six.

But this line of inquiry is different from the topic of the OP so: let's go shall we?

I figured it might have to do with the number 6. You brought up 666, so I thought it might have something to do with it.
