King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

Much has been written and said about the “mark of the beast” with several different methods of calculating the sum of 666, all of which are not scripturally backed. The answer lies in scripture, for the Lord gives the reader many challenges and clues in the volume of his book.

Revelation 13:18 states: here is wisdom, let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred threescore and six.

In the book of Daniel we find that men are weighed in God’s balance, a scale such as one sees as an emblem for the halls of justice. Now each man is given a total sum by the Lord and apparently 666 does not qualify a person for eternal life in heaven. Belshazzar was weighed and found wanting, though the sum of the man was not given.

A big clue in scripture as to the identity of the beast is given in 1Kings 10:14: Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one age was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold. This sentence is startling at the least. How could this great man of God be linked to the mark of the beast?

1 Kings 11:4-8 It came to pass when Solomon was old that his wives turned away his heart after other gods, and his heart was not perfect with the Lord

Page 2: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

as was the heart of David, his father, for Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians and after Molech, the abomination of the Ammonites. He built high places of worship for all his strange (or heathen) wives.

In Christian terminology today we speak of being “born again” or “saved” as a way to define ones’ being accepted into Gods’ family or kingdom. Throughout the Old Testament, the believer was known as “upright” or “perfect in heart” for their solitary faith in the one true God, never worshiping another.

Most people who have ever regularly attended church have learned the doctrine of “once saved, always saved” taught by men of the modern day who say that we are sealed by the Holy Spirit and can never fall away into perdition. Yet the Bible explains that this sealing is only a deposit or pledge in 2 Corinthians 1:22 and speaks of the first anointed king of Israel, Saul, who tasted of God’s blessings and fell into perdition as the Lord’s spirit was removed from him because he was disobedient in not destroying the totally wicked Amalekites and then went to the witch of Endor to bring up the prophet Samuel from the dead to speak to him. 1 Samuel 28:16 Why do you ask for me, seeing the Lord is departed from thee, and is become thine enemy.

2 Chronicles 15:1. And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded: 2. and he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa,

Page 3: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

and all Judah and Benjamin: the Lord is with you, while ye are with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you. Though the Lord has sealed the new testament believer with a promise of a down payment, we still have a free will to leave him as Lucifer and his followers did.

John 15:5. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 10. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

The author of Hebrews makes it clear to the reader of the new testament the result of apostasy or perdition in 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, and have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

The same is spoken of in 2 Peter 2:20-21 For if after

Page 4: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

1 Corinthians 10:9. neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them did tempt, and by the serpents did perish; 10. neither murmur ye, as also some of them did murmur, and did perish by the destroyer. 11. And all these things as types did happen to those persons, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the end of the ages did come.

Ezekiel 18:24. "But when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, shall he live? All the righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; because of the unfaithfulness of which he is guilty and the sin which he has committed, because of them he shall die.

These scriptures do not speak of backsliding or a sinful nature, but turning to false gods or idols to worship and serve, which is an abomination and blasphemes the Holy Spirit, the unforgivable sin. In a spiritual sense, it is telling

Page 5: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

the Lord that he is not good enough and committing spiritual adultery with another. Only one reason is given in scripture for divorce: adultery. The same law which applies to the physical applies to the spiritual. A similitude given by a merciful God of judgment:

In Deuteronomy 24:1-4 it is declared that if a woman is divorced from her first husband and remarries, she cannot return to her first husband because she is defiled and it is an abomination to God. Those of us in the spiritual church of God are considered to be a woman or female as we are to be married to God and Christ. When one leaves God and worships another god, that person is permanently divorced from the Lord forever. That which is the law in the spiritual, we attempt to practice in the physical.

The Greek word for divorce is:

Strong's Ref. # 647Romanized apostasionPronounced ap-os-tas'-ee-onneuter of a (presumed) adj. from a derivative of GSN0868; properly, something separative, i.e. (specially) divorce: KJV--(writing of) divorcement.

Yes it is true that Solomon did not receive salvation through Jesus Christ, but at that time it was not required, and the Father God Almighty spoke to him personally and he was filled with the Holy Spirit.

In the Old Testament books such as Deuteronomy, many curses were promised upon those of Israel who would worship other gods and idols. The wheels of these curses started rolling because of the acts of one man named Solomon. In Deuteronomy 13 it is stated that anyone who leads the people of Israel to worship false gods shall be stoned, and all those who worship with him struck with the edge of the sword, along with the cattle; and the whole city to be burned, never to be rebuilt. It shall be a burnt offering unto the Lord.

Deuteronomy 28:54 The man that is tender among you, and very delicate, (weak hearted) his eye shall be evil toward his brother (Nathan, the line of Jesus) and toward the wife of his bosom, (Jerusalem) and toward the remnant of his children (Israel) which he shall leave.

There are only two people listed in scripture as being tender or weak hearted: Solomon and his son whom inherited his throne, Rehoboam.

Deut 29:18 Lest there should be among you man or woman or family or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the Lord our God to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood; and it come to pass, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his

heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst: the Lord will not spare him, but then the anger of the Lord and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the Lord shall blot out his name from under heaven. And the Lord shall separate him unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law.

For all of you wondering if Solomon was forgiven and saved, I think this scripture just answered your question.

Many claim that King Solomon repented because of the words he wrote in the book of Ecclesiastes, yet action of repentance and abiding in the law of God is required to be saved. Let us learn by the writings about King Manasseh:

2 Chronicles 33:9. And (king) Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil more than did the nations whom Jehovah destroyed before the children of Israel.12. And when he was in affliction, he besought the Lord his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers. 13. And he prayed unto him; and he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that JHWH

Page 8: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

he was God.15. And he (Manasseh) took away the foreign gods, and the idol out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.

Now let us learn what happened when Josiah took over reign as king:

2 Kings 23:13. Then the king (Josiah) defiled the high places that were east of Jerusalem, which were on the south of the Mount of Corruption, which Solomon king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the people of Ammon. 14. And he broke in pieces the sacred pillars and cut down the wooden images, and filled their places with the bones of men.

These high places that King Solomon had built for the foreign gods which he worshipped while he was alive were still standing at the time that King Josiah began his reign as King of Judah.

Jeremiah 22:13 Woe unto him that builds his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong: that uses his neighbors services without wages, and giveth him not for his work, that saith I build me a wide house and large chambers, and cuts him

Page 9: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

out windows, and it is sealed with cedar, and painted with vermilion.

Solomon fulfilled this prophecy when he built his own house which was 100 cubits wide and took 13 years to build, compared to the temple of the Lord which was 20 cubits wide and built in 7 years. He also raised a levy throughout the land and enslaved the strangers in the land to bear burdens and labor.

Psalm 72 was written for Solomon as the heading indicates. At first glance one might think this psalm to be prophetical of David’s fourth son of Bathsheba. With hindsight we now know that this psalm is a perfect description of our dear beloved messiah Jeshua of Nazareth. King Solomon did partially fulfill this psalm, but only God has the power to redeem souls and grant eternal life.

The Lord himself spoke to Solomon in 1 Kings 9:4-9 And if you will walk before me, as David thy father walked, in integrity of heart. And in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded and will keep my statutes and my judgments; then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel forever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, there shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel. But if you shall at all turn from following me, you or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and

Page 10: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

worship them: then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people: and at this house, which is high every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, why hath the Lord done thus unto this land, and to this house? And they shall answer, because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshiped them, and served them: therefore hath the Lord brought upon them all this evil.

Nahum 1:11 There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the Lord, a counselor of belial.

Zechariah 11:16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, whom shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear there claws in pieces.

Ezekiel 21:25 And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end, Thus saith the Lord God; remove the diadem, and take off the crown...

Page 11: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

Malachai 2:11-12 Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem, for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the Lord which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god. The Lord will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering to the Lord.

1 Kings 3:1 Now Solomon made a treaty with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and married Pharaoh’s daughter…3:4 And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place; a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar. To personally make an offering is a gesture that only priests were allowed to doand to so at a high place is forbidden. Solomon was a prophet and a king; there is only one Prophet, Priest, and King: Jesus.

In 1 Kings 3:14 the Lord offered Solomon eternal life if he would keep the statutes and commandments as his father David had done. Immediately after he awoke he went to Jerusalem and violated the Law by offering burnt offerings and peace offerings.

In Revelation 17:10-11 we read: And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, the other is not yet come, and when he comes, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not,

Page 12: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

Many assume that it will be the 7th beast that is revived from the dead, but scripture clearly states that the beast that was and is not at the time of this prophecy would be the 8th beast. To this point in time there were only 6 beasts with the 6th in power at the time. Therefore one must calculate that the 8th beast will be one of the first 5 beasts because the beast that was is in the past tense at the time of this writing of the prophet John.

We learn in Jude verse 9 that the devil tried to claim the body of Moses for his own purposes, only to be denied by Michael in the name of the Lord. It may be possible for Satan to claim dead bodies for his own purposes in the end times. It must be a person whom the people of Israel will accept as their messiah. With the advancement of technology today, there is a strong possibility that King Solomon shall be or already has been cloned.

Daniel 11:37 states that: he shall not worship the God of his fathers, a clue that he will be from the people of Israel. Daniel himself prayed to the God of his fathers in the book he authored.

The six pointed star on the flag of Israel is thought to be the Star of David, when in reality it is the seal of Solomon, which originated from the star of the god of Remphan, which is mentioned in Acts 7. This star and variations of it are the mark of the beast. It is also interesting to note

Page 13: King Solomon is the Antichrist and Beast

that many people joined to secret societies such as freemasons use this star as one of their symbols and practice the resurrection of Solomon in their secret rituals as they are also extremely eager to build the new temple in Israel.

Please study the word of God to find yourselves approved at the coming day of our Lord. It is not difficult if the Holy Spirit dwells within your being to guide you. Earnestly seek and pray that he will give you wisdom and knowledge concerning all truth. A Strong’s concordance used with an old King James Bible and or computer Bible program is extremely helpful.

Stay away from commentaries, for they are written by wolves in sheeps clothing and is one of the biggest reasons for all the false doctrines being taught at this present day. There will be no excuse for following well meaning false teachers and false doctrines at the great judgment. Each person is responsible for working out their own salvation and filling their lamp with pure oil. There will be many who question the Lord on their way to The Lake of fire, thinking in their heart that they were doing the will of the Father. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God.
