Occult Flag of America
That the American flag is a symbol of witchcraft, is a startling discovery. Many Americans
would find such a claim incredible, if not an outright offensive idea. Yet, there is more
evidence that this is truly what is symbolized in the American flag. Even as the five pointed
stars arranged in a circle point to a foundation in witchcraft, and even as it takes thirteen
members to form a coven, so also does the number thirteen reveal another association with
Satan. E.W. Bullinger, in the book Number in Scripture, provides the following information
about the Biblical significance of this number.
As to the significance of thirteen, all are aware that it has come down to us as a number
of ill-omen. Many superstitions cluster around it, and various explanations are current
concerning them.
Unfortunately, those who go backwards to find a reason seldom go back far enough. The
popular explanations do not, so far as we are aware, go further back than the Apostles.
But we must go back to the first occurrence of the number thirteen in order to discover the
key to its significance. It occurs first in Gen 14:4, where we read "Twelve years they
served Chedorlaomer, and the thirteenth year they REBELLED."
Hence every occurrence of the number thirteen, and likewise of every
multiple of it, stamps that with which it stands in connection with rebellion,
apostasy, defection, corruption, disintegration, revolution, or some kindred
idea.

Bullinger supplies a wealth of Biblical evidence that links the number thirteen to rebellion.
He continues on to speak of the consistency with which the Gematria of the Bible associates
the number 13 with the enemies of God, and specifically with Satan. For those unfamiliar
with Gematria, certain alphabets, such as ancient Hebrew and Greek, use characters that
serve as both numbers and letters. Thus, a word, a name, or a phrase, can have its value
calculated by viewing the letters as numbers. Bullinger provides the following information.
The enemies of God and His people as named in Scripture are generally multiples of
thirteen.
Let us begin with the great enemy himself, always remembering that though we may give
the English for the sake of clearness, the gematria always refers to the original Hebrew
