A reader notified me of a statement in chapter one
of Michael and Debi Pearl's book, To Train Up a Child, that struck him
and his wife as
odd:
While we tried to sit and talk, the children were constantly
running in and out of doors, complaining of ill treatment from the others,
begging to go or stay or eat, or demanding a toy that another child would
not relinquish. The mother had to continually jump up and rescue some
breakable object. She said, “No,” six hundred sixty-six times in the
space of two hours. She spanked each child two or three times—usually
with her hand on top of a diaper. Other than misaligning the child’s spine,
it seemed to have had no effect. (1) [bold emphasis added]
Michael and Debi
Pearl placed the number of the name of the beast on the first page of the first chapter of their first book
on child training. (2) This number, six hundred sixty-six, was not
mentioned in a doctrinal context or in a way suited to the seriousness of the
number of the name of the beast of Revelation. (3) Rather, the
number six hundred sixty-six was, to all outward appearances, cited to show the
number of times "in the space of two hours" a mother said "No" to her
unmanageable children.
Perhaps Michael and Debi Pearl might
try to dismiss this occult marking by saying the "six hundred sixty-six times"
statement is placed in their first child training book to serve as
'tongue-in-cheek humor' and nothing more.
Genuine believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, in heeding the grave meaning of this
number in scripture, do not cite the number of the name of the beast—which is
directly related to the worship of Antichrist—flippantly.
The New World
Order/New Age/satanist/occultist insiders greatly anticipate the rising of the
beast and everything that it entails. That is why they love to mark their corporations,
books, films, websites, ministries etc. with 666. Unlike the Pearls, Genuine
Christians refrain from
unscriptural levity in regard to the number that identifies Antichrist.
In Conclusion
The insertion of the number "six hundred sixty-six" in
Michael and Debi Pearl's book, To Train Up a Child, marks it for the occult just
as the upside-down cross font (and more) marks their book, Good and Evil;
and the Celtic
point-within-the-circle font marks Eight Kingdoms. Michael Pearl's teaching that
Sex is Worship and placing RUNES on the Ten Commandments is the same thing as
advertising for witchcraft.
The Holy Bible commands God's people to abstain from the appearance of evil, not
mark themselves with it. (See 1 Thessalonians 5:22)
