As mortals of planet Earth (Urantia), each of us will forever be associated with the number of our planet, according to the registry of inhabited planets. Our number is 5,342,482,337,666. This means that in all of creation, our planet is the 5,342,482,337,666th planet to be inhabited by evolutionary freewill intelligent mortals. All through eternity, we shall always be known by this number. Our number is 5,342,482,337,666. So, figuratively speaking, we may say it's a mark on our heads. When you get to the seven mansion worlds and beyond (in the heavenly abodes), you will be known as a mortal with that number.
On Urantia (planet Earth), we start off as low-level, primitive, evolutionary mortals, having the mark of the beast, i.e. the animal, carnal nature, because we evolved from the animal kingdom. We are mortals, with animal, carnal nature. There is a beast in us. We have that animal mark in us. We are evolutionary mortals living on inhabited planet number 5,342,482,337,666. There were already 5,342,482,337,665 planets with evolutionary mortals living in them before our planet earth was suitable for life.
As a human being, you have a soul and a spirit as well. This spirit is your Thought Adjuster, the still, small voice within, the divine fractal in you. This, your Thought Adjuster begins to engage in a struggle for dominance over your animal, carnal nature. The spirit and the flesh begin to tussle. This leads to all kinds of experiences that can never be had through any other means. These EXPERIENCES contribute immensely for your own benefit and the benefit of all existences: both created existences and uncreated existences. This is all a part of the grand eternal divine plan and purpose of God, our heavenly Father, our spiritual Father, the Causeless Cause, the First Source and Divine Center. Gradually, the mark of the beast will begin to fade away from you, as the spirit gains more and more dominance in the mastery of your mind... ...A day will come either here on Earth (Urantia) or up above in the heavenly realms when the last mark and trace of the animal nature will be gone - removed from you.
Urantia Book 47:10.2
"John the Revelator saw a vision of the arrival of a class of advancing mortals from the seventh mansion world to their first heaven, the glories of Jerusem. He recorded: “And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire; and those who had gained the victory over the beast that was originally in them and over the image that persisted through the mansion worlds and finally over the last mark and trace, standing on the sea of glass, having the harps of God, and singing the song of deliverance from mortal fear and death.” (Perfected space communication is to be had on all these worlds; and your anywhere reception of such communications is made possible by carrying the “harp of God,” a morontia contrivance compensating for the inability to directly adjust the immature morontia sensory mechanism to the reception of space communications.)"
Urantia Book 139:4.14
"When in temporary exile on Patmos, John wrote the Book of Revelation, which you now have in greatly abridged and distorted form. This Book of Revelation contains the surviving fragments of a great revelation, large portions of which were lost, other portions of which were removed, subsequent to John’s writing. It is preserved in only fragmentary and adulterated form."
We may summarize thus: We have the mark of the beast, that is the animal, carnal nature, and we are from inhabited planet number 5,342,482,337,666. The Book of Revelation in the Bible has been edited. In addition, some portions have been lost; some removed. This is why it seems to suggest that the antichrist will give people a mark called 666. If you read that passage in the Bible, you will see that it says that 666 is the number of man:
Revelation 13:18, NKJV
"Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666."
When you consider that the Book of Revelation has been edited, some portions removed, and some portions lost, it will not be difficult for you to understand why that verse was written that way. Yes, 666 is the number of Urantian mortals (earthlings). But the full number is 5,342,482,337,666. This means that in all of creation, our planet is the 5,342,482,337,666th planet to be inhabited by evolutionary freewill intelligent mortals. All through eternity, we shall always be known by this number.
I think someone or some people, in the process of tampering with the Book of Revelation, may have knocked off all the numbers except the last three numbers (666), thinking it's just damn too long and then twisted the whole narrative to mean something totally different from what the Apostle John actually wrote. Also, please bear in mind that large portions of the book have been lost. These are key reasons why the book is very complex and difficult to understand today.
The policy of preventing people from buying and selling is nothing new. It happened to Christians during the Roman Empire. It might happen again - not only to Christians but to anyone who refuses to fall in line with the orders of their government. All that does not change the fact that planet earth is the 5,342,482,337,666th planet to have evolutionary mortal life in all of God's vast, vast, vast, vast creation. Please, bear in mind, we have trillions of galaxies. It is NOT wrong for God to create mortals on other planets. In fact, he has already done just that. And is still doing it. Some people may not want to admit that the Book of Revelation has been tampered with. Oh well, one day, they will find out - either here on earth or when they get to the heavenly realms. It's just a matter of time. But blessed are those who understand and accept these things now. Great rewards, they will enjoy - now and in eternity.
All grace!
Love. Light. Life.

"The next evening, having gathered together the twelve apostles, the apostles of John, and the newly commissioned women's group, Jesus said: "You see for yourselves that the harvest is plenteous, but the laborers are few. Let us all, therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest that he send forth still more laborers into his fields."" - Urantia Book Paper 150:4.1
"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." - Jesus, Matthew 11:12
NB:
Translators of the Bible, in essence, said, "the violent ones take the kingdom by force." The Urantia Book clarifies it. The Midwayers who wrote part IV used the term, "spiritual assault" in paper 155. They conveyed the Master’s words to help us, in essence: To replace "violent ones who take the kingdom by force " with "brave ones who establish the kingdom by spiritual assault".
literally consumes the body of flesh and blood to dust, ashes...
