President, Barack Obama has promised a massive change to “modernize health care by making all health records standardized and electronic.” Part of his ambitious health care program will be the computerizing of medical records of all Americans in order to make the health care process more cost-effective. --- the VeriChip Corp., the US company creating microchip implants --- The company’s executives have said their present push is the tagging of “high-risk” patients — diabetics and people with heart conditions or Alzheimer’s disease. --- According to the company’s most recent SEC quarterly filing, 515 hospitals have pledged to take part in the VeriMed network --- In early September, up to 200 Alzheimer’s patients living in the Palm Beach, Florida area were implanted with the microchip by the company VeriChip absolutely free. --- People are already lining up for the VeriChip --- there have been rumors on Wall Street, and elsewhere, of the potential uses for RFID in humans: the chipping of U.S. soldiers, of inmates, or of migrant workers, to name a few --- Opponents believe the government is choosing the most vulnerable citizens for the initial implants — Alzheimer’s patients, the handicapped, retarded, the elderly — but eventually every human being in the US, Mexico and Canada will be required to have the microchip implants if only to keep track of them and their activities.

In 1978, I was sitting in a college classroom when they were previewing this newest technology called microchips. My brain thinks in tangential relationships, like seeing the world as a huge spiderweb of interconnected fibers, and I was immediately struck by the knowledge that I was most likely seeing the MARK in its infancy.
The microchip I saw could easily be implanted in the fleshy part of the palms of adults, and through the open fontanelles of newborn infants to make it a more permanent mark once the skull bone closes --- on their hands or in their foreheads.
I went home from class that day, and called the 700 Club to tell someone --- anyone --- somewhere --- who might understand what I had seen. I knew at the time of that inspiration that they could "sell" it to implant children and Alzheimer's patients "for their own good and protection", and then , once it became acceptable, they would offer it to everyone else. Once all the "free choice" takers were chipped, it would be easy to require the rest of us to be marked. The person on the phone did not take me seriously, and prayed for me that I would not be bothered any longer by "unfounded" fears. I wonder sometimes if he will ever get that "deja vu" feeling in the pit of his stomach now.
And my mind kept repeating "Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days" --- for they will not be able to go to a hospital without the mark being involuntarily forced upon them and their babies as a simple "injection". Imagine having to give birth at home or not being able to take a sick child to the doctor. For those of us who will not take the mark, hospitals and law enforcement will no longer be available for our care and safety.
Everything I "understood" in that first moment in 1978 has happened as I saw that it would. The chip is being "sold for safety" now, but soon it will be sold for convenience as well. You will not need to be concerned about having your credit cards stolen, or identity theft, or forgetting your checkbook, or not having enough cash with you, etc., if you can just swipe your hand across a scanner to process your business transactions. You can buy and sell without "money", and the merchant has no fear about hot checks, or fake ID's. or stolen credit cards, or even counterfeit money.
Fast forward to today, and I see the plan coming to fruition in the nationalization of healthcare --- and this is a secular article from a secular publication.

Sure thing Mr. Government Doctor...go right ahead and implant me with your tracking chip. I know it is for my own good and I know my Government would never try to control me....*violently pukes all over keyboard*
Wow
And notice, just like GE’s renwed interest in “green” technologies, they’ve started advertising their services for medical record standardization and digitization.
More payback for the owners of NBC.
OMG!!
Have at it!
I’ve been watching this technology develop for years too, but not nearly as long as you. It’s like watching biblical history being made.
1938
WHOA! I may have to rethink my position that Obama doesn’t fit all the qualities of the Anti-Christ.
Revelation 13:16 & 17 - “He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.”
Bible scholars have long thought that the ‘mark of the beast’ would be microchip implants.
Now this is truly getting surreal AND SCARY!!!!!!!
.....as if we needed a “Tipping Point.”
I think you’re right. The microchip has been implanted into pets for some time now, and yes, I have shared your concern that if it’s safe and convenient for my pet, why not for me? I think, too, that the chip will be marketed as a way to protect our idenitities and our data - now including medical records, of course - from theft. And I think the safety issue will play perfectly into this. Of course our passports and drivers licenses can be available 100 % of the time this way. On its face, it’s almost appealing, and I can see how many people will cheer this as a good idea. It’s not a good idea.
Quite honestly, I was hoping we weren’t quite this far along, but here we are.

At last count he fit 12 out of 19 qualities. (there's a youtube video that details them) It could be debated that he filled 1 or 2 more. This MARK makes anywhere from 13-15 of 19 solid anti christ qualities.
I have shared your concern that if it’s safe and convenient for my pet, why not for me?

You can converse and carry ID, your pet cannot.
This is really scary! I can easily see this becoming mandatory for health insurance (esp Gov’t health) or being implanted without my knowledge/consent.

Isn’t that a line from the movie “Moment After”?
The problem I see is that if THE mark is forced on someone, God isn’t going to leave that person. The person has to worship the beast, as well as receive the mark.
Rev 14:9 -
And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink the wine of God’s wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name.”
Rev 16.2 -
So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
Rev 19.19 -
And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to make war against him who was sitting on the horse and against his army. And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. And the rest were slain by the sword that came from the mouth of him who was sitting on the horse, and all the birds were gorged with their flesh.
This leads me to believe that *IF* the government injects a RFID tag into someone (young, old, coherent, Alzheimer’s, healthy), and the key is UNKNOWINGLY, then it does nothing to ones salvation.
However, I cut the RFID tags out of my credit cards, so what do I know.

(NIV) REVELATION 14:9-12:
“A third angel followed them and said in
a loud voice: “If anyone worships the
beast and his image and receives his
mark on the forehead or on the hand,
he, too, will drink of the wine of God's
fury, which has been poured full strength
into the cup of his wrath. He will be tor-
mented with burning sulfur in the presence
of the holy angels and of the Lamb. And the
smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever.
There is no rest day or night for those who
worship the beast and his image, or for anyone
who receives the mark of his name. This calls
for patient endurance on the part of the saints
who obey God's commandments and remain faithful
to Jesus.”
