Not to be irreverent, but I would think we should rather want to encourage him in such endeavors. I honestly think the so-called resemblance between a Hebrew six and a monster claw mark is purely coincidental, although, if you hear of anyone being tempted to worship Satan because of my morning beverage choice, please let me know, and I will stop immediately out of Christian love ( I Corinthians 8).Īs an aside, let’s suppose that the devil decided to get out of the “stealing, killing, and destroying” ( John 10:10) business, and stopped opposing Christ’s Gospel and God’s kingdom, and stopped trying to tempt people into sin, and stopped trying to ruin lives and destroy families, and instead he got into the energy drink business. So, even IF Revelation 13 was originally written in Hebrew (it wasn’t it was written in Greek), then it would not be written to look anything like three monster claw marks. It turns out that Revelation 13:18 is describing the number six hundred sixty-six, not three consecutive numeral sixes. I did neither, because, while we all know that “ladies on the internet” are very knowledgeable about almost everything, they do occasionally make a mistake. Who knew?! So, with three marks vaguely resembling Hebrew sixes on my favorite energy drink, I was faced with a tough choice: go back to putting duct tape over the phrase “party like a rock star” or continue supporting the devil. Neither did I, until the lady on the internet pointed out the Hebrew symbol for the numeral 6 looks a bit like a monster claw mark. If you don’t see the connection between the monster claw marks and the “mark of the beast” from Revelation 13, you are not alone. I guess this appeals to their target audience, which are mostly young men into skateboarding and skydiving and cage fighting and other “extreme” sports, not elderly Sunday School teachers and lawyers trying to stay awake during a three hour drive for a court hearing that starts at 8:00 a.m. The Monster energy drink cans have three monster claw marks on them, which, I thought, was supposed to symbolize a monster (full of caffeine, sugar, and adrenaline, no doubt) tearing his way through a wall. From this, people associate the number as being satanic. This is supposed to be a number (666) that signifies the Antichrist, and that the people who will be on earth after the Rapture and during the Tribulation will have to wear on their right hands or foreheads in order to buy or sell things. It doesn’t make me twitchy, but it does keep me alert in the morning if I didn’t sleep well the night before and have to go to court or teach Sunday School.Ī while back someone showed me where “a lady on the internet” said that Monster energy drinks have “the mark of the beast” from Revelation 13 on the can. So I switched to Full Throttle, which has a citrusy, although strongly medicinal, taste.įinally, I found Monster tea-and-lemonade flavor, which actually tastes like tea and lemonade (except with melted iron ore mixed in). I haven’t really partied like a rock star since my sixth-grade birthday party. I used to drink Rock Star energy drink because, to me, it was the best-tasting one, but it said “party like a rock star” on the can, and, let’s face it, that’s false advertising in my case. I don’t drink coffee, but there are times (not often, like I said, maybe one day out of every 35-40 days) when I like to have some caffeine in the morning, and energy drinks have a lot of caffeine and sugar and probably other stuff that is not very good health-wise (which is why I only do it once in a while). ![]() I drink one of those about once every five or six weeks, and I have brought them to Sunday School or Tuesday morning men’s prayer meetings, or other morning church activities on several occasions. Did you know it has the mark of the beast on the can? We shouldn’t promote anything Satanic.Īnswer: I did bring a Monster energy drink to church. Question: You brought a Monster energy drink to church.
