And it's all about.....
His name was mentioned ONE time in Scripture.....
He has fallen from the Kingdom....
And rose in the morning....
And HaShem said to him; Lucifer, you say in your heart;
"I will eXalt my throne above the throne of God. I will
put myself beyond the stars and I will be like the Most
High." (Isaias 12:14)
"Then they remembered that the Almighty God HaShem was
their rock and redeemer. The LORD God of hosts, and the
Most High." (Ps 78:35)
"Glorify the name of your Mighty Lord, the Most High."
(Allah 87.1)
The Deceiver will have...666......in his name.....
The word 'six' appears seven times in the Koran. One is capitalized.
The other six is in six separate verses where Allah praises himself
for making creation in six days.....666.....in his name....
"I, Me, the Mighty, the great and powerful Allah. Allah the merciful.
Allah the bountiful", blah blah blah blAllah.......
Sounds like the Mighty Most Powerful, Wizard of Oz.....eXposed.....
