As reported in a previous post (see The Mark of the Beast and the Idolatry of Self), the name of the Beast (the Antichrist) or number of its name (Revelations 13:16-18) is “six hundred and sixty six” (666). Saint John tells us: Children, these are the last days; you were told that an Antichrist must come, now several antichrists have already appeared; we know from this that these are the last days. (1John 2:18). Saint John also tells us that: every spirit which acknowledges that Jesus the Christ has come in the flesh is from God; but any spirit which will not say this of Jesus is not from God, but is the spirit of Antichrist,…(1 John 4:3). As I mentioned in a previous post (29/10/2025), many antichrists have come throughout human history as satan uses his adepts to try to destroy us and The Church.
In 1989, Our Lady explained to Father (Fr) Gobi of the Marian Movement of Priests (MMP)
The number, 333, indicates the divinity (of God). Our Lady also identified the number 666 is that of the Antichrist (Locution 407 “To The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons”, 1998, page 654-655). Our Lady further tells Fr Gobi that Lucifer, the ancient serpent, the devil or satan, the Red Dragon, becomes, in these last times, the Antichrist (ibid). Lucifer rebels against God through pride, because he who wants to put himself above God. 333 is the number which indicates the mystery of God. He who wants to put himself above God bears the sign 666 and consequently this number indicates the name of Lucifer, Satan, that is to say, of him who sets himself against Christ, of the Antichrist. (ibid).
The number 333 expresses the principle mysteries of the Catholic faith (ibid). The first expression of 333 is of the mystery of the unity of God (ibid). The second expression of 333 is of the two natures, that of the divine and the human united in the divine Person of Jesus Christ (ibid). The third expression of 333 is of the mystery of the Most Holy Trinity (i.e the Trinity of God; ibid). Satan, who is the great imitator and yet unable to be God wants to put himself above God through pride and is referred too by the number 666. This is similarly expressed three times (ibid) historically.
Our Holy Mother Mary identified to Father Gobi three historical periods in human history connected with the spirit of antichrist (1 John 4:3). First Our Holy Mother connected the year 666 with the rise of Islam which: denies the mystery of the divine Trinity and the divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ (To The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons, 12th Oceania Edition, locution 407). Islam claims Jesus Christ was a prophet and not the Son of God. Islam spread quickly throughout the 7th century by military conquests, destroying all the ancient christian communities and invades Europe…(ibid). Islam overran the Middle East, North Africa and Spain but was defeated at Tours in France by the Franks in 732AD. The Ottoman Empire was finally stalled at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571AD. This was achieved by the motherly intervention of Our Lady after it was: begged for powerfully by the Holy Father (Pope Pius V; ibid).
The second expression the number is 666 twice; that brings us to the year 1332 AD. In this period of history, the Antichrist is manifested through a radical attack on the faith in the word (Parola) of God (ibid). In this 14th century, the Black Death (the Bubonic Plague) decimated the population of Europe reducing it by an estimated 50%. The 100 years War also erupted between England and France (which actually lasted 116 years). However, on a more spiritual level Humanistic Renaissance took hold in Italy. Renaissance Humanism was an intellectual movement typified by a revived interest in the classical world and studies which focussed not on religion but on what it is to be human (https://www.worldhistory.org/Renaissance_Humanism/). Hence, we started naval gazing. It gave priority to reason and philosophy, human experience and encouraging a “rational” and non-religious life. This led to the so-called “Enlightenment” and the rationalism of today that still affects our way of thinking and is not very rational a lot of the time. Finally, the 14th century also saw the appearance of Masonic Lodges or Guilds. Modern day Freemasonry traces its history back to these “fraternities”. In essence, we as humans started worshiping ourselves.
The third expression of the number 666 brings us to the year 1998. In this period of history Our Holy Mother predicted that: Freemasonry, assisted by its ecclesiastical form, will succeed in its great design: that of setting up an idol to put in the place of Christ and of his Church. A false christ and a false church (ibid). As the hearts and minds of much of the population are already primed through Apostasy and with the Idolatry of Self (see the post on The Mark of The Beast); the stage is set for the advent of the Antichrist who will no doubt initially pander to everyone’s ego.
Interestingly, the multinational technology company Google was incorporated in 1998. This is when the internet really took off. It became possible to view everything human from pornography and gore to advertising and news from across the world, and to search for all sorts of information. We now have a myriad of ways to “express ourselves” from “Facebook” to “X” (formerly Twitter) and other social media platforms. We became fully obsessed with ourselves! Many of our youth spend most of their spare time “gaming” or on social media preferring to communicate with each other online rather than in person. I have observed children sitting next to each other, texting each other rather than speaking to each other. They spend much of their time in the Temple of the Internet. As Our Lady said to Fr Gobi about our times: You have thus arrived at the peak of the purification, of the great tribulation and of the apostasy. The apostasy will be as of then generalized because almost all will follow the false christ and the false church. Then the door will be open for the appearance of the man or the very person of the Antichrist! (ibid).
