Looks like the on-ramp to Revelation 13: 16 thru 18 to me.
If only these types of innovations were used strictly for good, I wouldn’t be worried. Unfortunately anything and everything that can be used against the innocent is. Coupled with the directives being given to label those who use cash as “potential terrorists,” it’s easy to see that it will be all too soon that none may buy or sell without the mark. Thankfully, Christ will come to usher in His reign, but there are many years of suffering prior to that return. I’m grateful we have been forewarned and can have a firm reliance on God, and an eye of Faith to look unto Him in every thought. Amen.
No buying or selling without one...
