kimdonaldcurtis-evangelist/ “KNOWLEDGE AWAY FROM THE B E A S T” ==== HERE ARE MANY SCRIPTURES WHICH ARE NEEDED TO UNDERSTAND THIS CHAPTER OF REVELATION – 13 “For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, thatwisdom giveth life to them that have it.” A N D “Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city.” Job 38:36 KJV Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts? or who hath given understanding to the heart? Ecclesiastes 1:13 KJV And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. Ecclesiastes 2:21 KJVFor there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil. JOB 12 V 16 With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his. 17 Heleadeth counsellors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools . 18 He looseth the bond of kings,and girdeth their loins with a girdle. 19 He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth themighty. 20 He removeth away the speech of the trusty , and taketh away the understanding of theaged.==Proverbs 23:4 KJV Labour not to be rich : cease from thine own wisdom. A N D Proverbs 23:23 KJV Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. A N D Proverbs 24:3 KJV Through wisdom is an house builded ; and by understanding it is established : 1 Chronicles 22:12 KJV Only the LORD give thee wisdom and understanding, and give thee charge concerning Israel, that thou mayest keep the law of the LORD thy God. 1 John 2:27 KJV 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. A N D = 1 John 2:20 KJV But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: A N D Behold, I stand at the door, and knock : if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” Hosea 4:6 KJV My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children: NOW SOMETHING TO SEE FROM HIS HOLY BOOK OF REVELATION CHAP 15 V 2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.” RELATED DIRECTLY OF COURSE TO REV 13 V 17&18 Now, when reading Rev. chap.13 coming to the end of the chapter it is doubtful concerning the beast and his power that there is any hope for even the believers; YET HERE IN THE ABOVE VERSE Rev.Chap.15 v 2 stating the opposite. It is even specific as to overcoming the beast and over his image, over his mark and over his name. ......... This is a key for each is part of his ruling power at this appointed time coming upon us: N O T I C E There is the mark, or the number, or his name—all singly, not jointly required. We do have an indication although with this verse in Rev. Chap. 13 v 10 ending like this “Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.” Giving us a clue in that era of time that PATIENCE AND FAITH will be a key unto escaping that 3 and a half year escapade of the beasts reign. It is mentioned for a reason to bring to us a way out. IN VERSE 18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. WE go through this chapter and it is terrible and scary; yet at the end there are these words “HERE IS WISDOM”. YOU MUST FIRST SEE THAT IT IS THERE FOR A REASON. EVERYTHING IS NEGATIVE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE CHAPTER BUT SUDDENLY “HERE IS WISDOM” COMES TO SAVE US!! SO YOU MUST ASK: WHAT DOES WISDOM DO FOR US FROM GOD’S WORD? Proverbs 24:14 KJV So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off .A N D = Ecclesiastes 7:12 KJV For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, thatwisdom giveth life to them that have it. A N D Proverbs 3:19 KJV The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. WISDOM WAS PART OF CREATION! A N D Proverbs 8:11 KJV For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. A N D Proverbs 10:21 KJV The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom. ISNT WISDOM ABOUT THE SITUATION AT HAND; THE DANGERS-- AND WHAT TO FIGURE OUT ABOUT LIFE--THE PEARLS: ALSO IT IS REFERRING DIRECTLY TO THE DESCRIPTION AND DEFINITIONS OF THE TWO PRIOR VERSES FOR: THEY ARE WRITTEN WITH MUCH LITERACY, GRAMMAR AND ACCURACY. So looking closely at verse 17 the choice of wording is such that there are alternatives as it is spaced with commas as in a list FORM. But even more relevant here--- is the COLON: WHEN USING A COLON YOU CAN LITERALLY USE THE WORD---“MEANING” IN PLACE OF THE COLON SO WE COULD SAY BACKING UP IN VERSE 16-- And he causeth all, both small and great , rich and poor , free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand , or in their foreheads: MEANING THAT NO MAN MIGHT BUY OR SELL, SAVE HE HAD THE MARK, THE NAME OF THE BEAST, OR THE NUMBER OF HIS NAME {For in the English and grammar portrayal of this whole section at the end of verse 16 a colon: signifying and indicating---{“THIS IS WHAT I MEAN”} WE MUST SEE AS WELL, THAT OPTIONS ARE AFOOT: AS IT IS WRITTEN THE WORD “OR” CONCERNING WHERE THE MARK SHALL BE GIVEN EITHER ON HAND “OR” FOREHEAD. Then the first word is “And”—this is huge because it means what is written prior is not complete or finished in its meaning per the subject matter; WITH AGAIN RESPECT OF the colon. Next the “mark” is mentioned again with the “or” words. Here is the key now--- for the mentioning of the mark, the name, or the number of his name, are separate, independent- of one another; BUT, unto the same end in view: having one of these will suffice; not needing all of them-- that is how it is written. Now we must see that the word “mark” is a verb; for it states that the mark would be placed either on the right hand or the forehead. AGAIN AS IF THEY MIGHT HAVE AN OPTION WHERE TO HAVE IT. Now this is in verb form: The action of placing the mark. You see how I just used the colon? I am defining what I mean. Now, the fact that the word “mark” is used again is another indication: categorizing and equating it as equal in requirement to the name of the beast OR the number of his name. So here the second time the word mark was in past tense as a completed action denoting and not particular to either the hand or the forehead, but that the mark becomes almost as a noun---the name of something which COULD HAVE BEEN performed already. There are options is what is being portrayed. Also the mark is in a sense plural; for the mark is again the right hand “or” the forehead. They are both a place for a “mark”. So when it is mentioned the second time with the word “or” you can negate the mark: if you know the name of the beast, or the number of his name--- this is truly how it is written=== grammatically. It could have been written very differently stating that you needed all three- but it is not. Therefore---HERE IS WISDOM---VERSE 18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. INDICATING THE NUMBER IS WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW AS THE WISDOM!!!!!!!!! THE POINT HAS ALREADY BEEN MADE OF WHAT THE WISDOM IS FOR======TO BE ABIDING IN HIS REST MY FRIEND>>>> SUCH REST KNOWING THE WISDOM IN THIS PASSAGE IS FOR OUR BENEFIT AS HE IS OUR PROVIDER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! “Hosea 4:6 K J V My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. WHY IS THIS CLUE HERE MAKING US FIGURE OUT THIS? LET HIM WHO HAS UNDERSTANDING COUNT IT SAYS!!!!!!! THE INDICATION IS THAT WISDOM BRINGS SOMETHING VALUABLE IN THIS VERY IMPORTANT CONTEXT. The indication of a secret is what is being stated. So what is it that we benefit if we get the wisdom GOD wants for us here? HE is protecting us for the relevance of this coming at the end of the chapter is a “BUT”. For God is saying I have a way out for you; or else there would not be such a verse as “HEREIN IS WISDOM” THE NUMBER IS THE WISDOM-- WHICH MAY BE WHAT SETS US FREE IN THAT DAY---KNOWING THE NUMBER WE go through this chapter and it is a terrible; and scary; yet at the end there are these words HEREIN IS WISDOM. YOU MUST FIRST SEE THAT IT IS THERE FOR A REASON. EVERYTHING IS NEGATIVE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE CHAPTER BUT SUDDENLY “HERE IS WISDOM” SO YOU MUST ASK: WHAT DOES WISDOM DO FOR US FROM GOD’S WORD? IT IS WISDOM ABOUT THE SITUATION AT HAND--- RIGHT? Proverbs 21:21 KJV He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
