OF COURSE the REAL ID
is a precursor and a close one at that,
to the Mark of The Beast.
The chip implant will be the final stage—is the final stage alreay for Mexican bureaucrats . . . some law enforcement groups in the USA etc.
There was a big semi-sized van one could get implanted in at a recent Dolphin’s game . . . with lots of advertising hoopla about it at the game, IIRC.
I suspect a number of Christians are in lala land; asleep; clueless; looking the other way; hoping against hope it won’t be on their watch; . . . and no small number feeling accurately that it’s going to be anyway—so why fight it.
Certainly it’s going to be anyway. Still, some fighting it could delay the final stage some, probably. Not certainly.
And, it’s good to fight for the good and against evil.
However, putting the same time and energies into drawing folks into God’s Love and The Kingdom is the wiser use of time and resources, imho.
AND THAT COULD WELL INCLUDE WARNING FOLKS about what’s coming even though they may well think one crazy. When the boom lowers, Holy Spirit will cause them to remember and they can yet again choose life over death; Eternal Life over eternal isolation from God.
So what does any of that have to do with a rejection of God to the point, as some claim, that it would be a negation of the salvation that Christ bought for us?
