An interesting element of P [displaystyle [mathfrak [P]]] [mathfrak [P]]115 is that it gives the number of the beast in Revelation 13:18 as 616 (chi, iota, stigma (ΧΙϚ)), rather than the majority reading of 666 (chi, xi, stigma (ΧΞϚ)), as does Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus
One possible explanation for the two different numbers is that they reflect two different spellings of Emperor Nero/Neron's name, for which (according to this theory) this number is believed to be a code.[5][6]

"Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.".

As much as you may think Xi does not fit the mold of Scriptures. He does fit the vast 200 million army that comes from the east. China has currently 300 million standing Army. No nation in the world could stand against them. But between now and then China will have lost 100 million soldiers. Where did they go? It will be estimated that around 700 million people will be gathered from around the world unto Jesus in the clouds ever more to be with him (1 Thess 4). Could they lose that many adults from their country alone at the gathering? Certainly so.
