There will be many Tribulation Saints who will refuse the Mark of the Beast - to their deaths - BUT they will inherit their eternal souls. I am pre-trib BUT I'm trying to spread the Word of God around the world through people (sharing) so that when the Angels of Revelation 14 come, the Tribulation Saints will believe them (axiomatic). The overwhelming majority of the world will not and will betray all the Tribulation Saints that they can.

Buying groceries will be impossible for Tribulation Saints who refuse the Mark of the Beast. Look at how quickly a substantial portion of the world was locked down for COVID-19(84).

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 King James Version

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Lets assume this comes to pass. It will — maybe or maybe not now or even in our lifetimes. Not sure these really are the end times. After all, sure people during WWII thought they were in the end times. Also only God know the day and hour. Matthew 24:35-37: “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.” Do grant an awful lot going on now does match up with the prophesies to the extent I’ve learned them from the Bible and other places including here.

Have some practical questions:

(1) If someone tries to force the mark on me or mine, am I allowed to use violence including lethal force to resist in defense of my/their soul(s)?

(2) If someone succeeds to force the mark on me or mine, for example drug me/them and then apply the mark(s), what do I/we do? I’d guess don’t use the mark and also try to remove/destroy it. Or will God not allow the mark to be forced on people?

Understand if you do not have the answers. Really just mulling the issues “out loud” and would like to have your thoughts.
