... While people take the book Revelation literaly, it was written while John was in prison, ... in a style known as apocalyptic writing. Using codes, numbers and symbols to relay a message.
..... He was predicting an apocalypse of sorts, or at least thats the way it would have seemed to the christians of the time. The Antichrist has come and gone ..... the antichrist is dead.
.... You see the number 666 translated into greek means, Nero !
... the most vile emperor to have ever lived, .... killed his own mother just as prophecied in the " Ascension of Isaiah " texts. The first persecutor of christians, murderer of apostles Peter and Paul, he would take the wives of his friends, and dine to the sound of prisoners being tortured and put to death. Rome burned under his rule, and at the footsteps of an approaching rebellion, ... committed suicide.
sorry guys, ... case closed. en.wikipedia.org...
i think it's a numerology link, i don't think it's as simple as "nero is greek for 666"

I see these threads pop up from time to time; Nero = 666, but so do a lot of other names. My question is this: If the Book of Revelation is about history rather than the future, at what point did Jesus return to earth as the ruler of the world?

It's not going to happen,it is not in Scripture!
