BTW, if you dispesationalists would bother to read Revelation 13 and take it at face value, you would realize that the beast first has to be wounded and live. Then the image is made. Then you have those being killed who would not worship the image and you have ***ALL*** receiving a mark on their hand or forehead.
The paranoia about this mark thing is hysterical. I have literally seen people become visibly nauseated thinking about it. And it doesn't even make sense. Don't you dispensationalists believe you will get raptured out before this happens? Why worry about it then. You'll be outta here. No soup for you!
