John is an enigmatic disciple of Jesus. He hides many apocalyptic secrets. He was shown the last things like no one has ever been shown. He was treated to a movie premiere titled, "The Apocalypse: the End of All Things", with front-row seat in full audio-visual immersive experience no less. John recounted the apocalyptic movie blow by blow in the Book of Revelation in the first person: "I saw" 35x, "I looked" 5x, "I beheld" 7x, "I heard" 23x, "I wept" 1x, and "I John saw" x2. He is the single most privileged believer in all of Christendom to have witnessed the entire Tribulation in full colors, sounds, and stunning details, from the beginning to the end, and beyond, giving us even a glimpse of eternity.
John saw the beast with his own eyes (Rev 13:1-3, 17:3, 19:19). Instead of spilling the beans, he left us a tantalizing clue that still torments many a curious mind. As you know, I believe I have found the solution to the 666 puzzle left by John in Rev 13:18. What I am going to do in this letter, is to prove it with a second beast scripture to Rev 13:18, also in the Book of Revelation, also written by John. Both of John's beast scriptures are like the two strands of a DNA's double helix. You will be shocked how John is connected to the number of the beast -- deeper and wider beneath the pages of Holy Writ -- more than you can ever imagine.
Verse 1318 written by John
John wrote five books in the Bible -- the Gospel of John, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, and the Book of Revelation, a total of 1415 verses. This number gives us a first hint that John's connection to the number 666 extends beyond the Book of Revelation. It was John who first gave world prominence to the number 666. Also, it was John who coined the infamous term -- Antichrist. Without digging deep into Scripture, it is clear that John is the undisputed writer of apocalyptic scriptures, and that his writings hold the key to the secrets of the number of the beast.
Strong's Hebrew and Greek words -- H666 and G666 -- are found in chapter 311 (1 Kings 20) and chapter 1105 (Philippians 2) of the Bible. Draw a number line with 1415 units. Count 311 units from the start of the number line and indicate with a marking where the count stops. Now count 1105 units from the end of the number line; the count stops exactly on the same spot where the '311' marking was first made! Here is the first hint that John's 1415 verses are deeply connected to 666.
Maybe this is just pure coincidence. But brace for more astonishing codes. There are 1189 chapters in the Bible. Place these chapters on a number line. Count 311 chapters into this number line. Take ch311 as the first chapter and start a fresh counting to the end; the number of chapters thus counted is 879. But this is the total number of verses in John's first book -- the Gospel of John -- another evidence that John's writings are deeply connected to 666. Continue the count by looping back to the beginning of the '1189' number line. Count another 439 chapters so that together with 879 chapters, the total is 1318 chapters. This chapter, ch439, is very important as we shall see.
A word on my numbering approach is in order before we proceed. I regard numbers as pure independent units not tied to any specific Biblical data types -- that is, verse numbers can be taken as chapter numbers and vice versa. In fact, this principle may be applied to all Biblical data types without distinction. An important precedent is set in the cracking of the 666 puzzle of Rev 13:18; its verse order 30,927 is 39 times 793 -- the standard English gematria of Barack Hussein Obama. Here the verse number is taken as gematria value. There are tons of examples on how God applies Biblical numbers to the natural world; or how mathematics find relevance in Biblical numbers; for example, the constant pi in Genesis 1:1, the constant e in John 1:1; or the Tetragrammaton in DNA etc. If Biblical numbers can find relevance in, and cross over into, other 'non-Biblical' domains, it is then perfectly valid that the different Biblical data types may support each other within the same Biblical domain; these include the chapter and verse numbers, Strong's numbers, gematria values and so on. God is the God of the Bible and God of all creation. There is no compartmentalization.
The five books written by John can be categorized into the Gospel of John and four epistles or letters. The Book of Revelation is usually not classified as letter but it is actually a 12-thousand word long letter addressed to the seven churches. John's writings, in terms of their structure and arrangement, appear to be deeply connected to H666 (ch311) and G666 (ch1105) -- for instance, John's 311st verse is 1105th verse from the end, and so on.
John's 1318th verse -- Rev 18:11 -- verse 439 of the last four epistles of John, falls on the spot in the Bible chapter number line that corresponds to ch439 of the second Bible -- Job chapter 3 (see above number line). The Greek gematria of Rev 18:11, the second beast scripture to Rev 13:18, is 10 x 793 -- the standard English gematria of Barack Hussein Obama! The position of ch439 is strategic; it splits the line segment bracketed by H666 and G666 into 1318 + 666. Furthermore, it contains the English word "mourning" (Job 3:8) that is also present in Rev 18:11 -- "mourn" (G3996). The number 3996 is SIX times 666; it is listed as the 1318th form of the '2042' set of forms obtainable from the KJV translation of the Book of Revelation (link)!
Job chapter 3 -- ch439, is a very macabre chapter, not unlike Revelation chapter 18 that records the destruction of Mystery Babylon. Reading Job chapter 3, you come away with a feeling of hopelessness, a feeling that is totally devoid of joy and life. That same sense permeates throughout the entire chapter of Revelation 18 -- the chapter that contains the most mentions of the phrase "no more" in the Bible -- no more "all things dainty and goodly" (v14); no more "that great city Babylon" (v21); no more "voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters" (v22); no more "craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, and the sound of a millstone" (v22); no more "light of a candle shall shine" (v23); and no more "voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard" (v23). What a sad, gloomy picture.
It's much the same with Job chapter 3. The sheer amount of melancholic words and phrases seem to hang on one's neck like a millstone weighing one down: "curse*" 3x, "death" x2, "died" x1, "blackness" x1, "dark*" x4, "perish" x1, "night" x3, "terrify" x1, "no joyful" x1, "solitary" x1, "ghost" x1, "slept" x1, "desolate" x1, "wicked" x1, "never saw light" x1, "prisoners" x1, "oppressor" x1, "weary" x1, "misery" x1, "bitter in soul" x1, "grave" x1, "sighing" x1, "greatly feared" x1, "afraid" x1, "not in safety" x1, "neither .. rest" x1, "trouble" x1, and "mourning" x1. The doom and gloom is off the charts! No wonder this dark chapter, ch439, splits the number line into 1318 and 666 chapters. When the Antichrist appears on the scene, he will suck out all light and life from planet Earth. Humanity will face its darkest hour.
The Mystery of the Dark Number 439
This number is so random that it could have been pluck from the air. For reasons beyond human understanding, 439 is connected to 1318 in multiple ways: a) John's 1318th verse is the 439th verse of his last four books which are essentially letters; b) Counting 1318 chapters starting from ch311 which contains the Hebrew word H666, the count ends on ch439 of the second Bible; c) The Greek word for "mourn" G3996 (6 x 666), found in John's 1318th verse (verse 439 of John's last four books), is the 1318th form of the '2042' set based on the KJV translation; and d) 439 is the 86th prime from 1 which is taken as the first prime; add 793 (BHO) to the prime and its order, the sum is 1318!
2025 got off to a Trumpian start. Whether you are for or against him, Trump makes things happen. No political leader grabs the headlines more deftly as him. A new year brings new hope to the watching community for the Rapture. Being an inveterate watcher, at this time of the year, I would be scanning for clues pointing to the new year, as is my custom. Lo and behold, I stumbled on the year in the most unexpected of places, in a scripture that I must have pored over a thousand times. This is exciting to say the least.
The Greek word for "count" (psēphízō; G5585) found in the 666 beast scripture, Rev 13:18, has a gematria of 2025 in Strong's Concordance! I cannot believe that this number has always been there in the verse but somehow I am blind to it. Despite my counting the verse all these years, the current Gregorian year linked to the word "count" eluded me. It remains to be seen whether it brings good tidings or another year of let down.
Perhaps it points to the rising of the Antichrist. Begin counting from ch793 (BHO) on the Bible chapter number line. Go forward 2025 chapters. The count ends on ch439 of Bible 3 !!!!!!
Begin counting from ch1105 (G666) on the Bible chapter number line. Go forward 2025 chapters. The count ends on ch751 of Bible 3; but this is ch439 counting from the end of Bible 3 !!!!!!
Weird isn't it?

Doves, John is full of intrigue. I am very sure there are a lot more apocalyptic secrets hidden by him in his writings waiting to be discovered.
We are in a high watch window right now given Trump's warning about an imminent attack on Iran to destroy its nuclear sites. The Middle East will explode when Iran is attacked. If nukes go off (the odds are not low), then all hell breaks loose.
Steve Bannon famously remarked that we're already deep into the kinetic part of WWIII. The last thing we need is to have a nuke dropped into the navel of the Earth to trigger the mother of all wars.
Come, Lord Jesus!
