We have been discussing this same conclusion on Free Republic for some time now. These thoughts are now beyond our conversations and are becoming obvious to others.
If you don’t bow down to homosexuality, then you will be punished.
Like”Radical Islam”,it’s”Their Way Or The HighWay”!!!!!!!!
Yes. This IS what constitutes ‘The Mark’ - not some bar code or implant. It’s obedience in thought and deed to the Government Beast’s ideology and religion - so that if you do not think and act as they demand, you will not be able to make a living or buy anything and you will be punished for refusing to comply (Matthew 24).
So a form of this is now in action in the MarxoFascist Dictatorship and Beast now ruling us.
What about Jesse Jackson and his Rainbow?
>>> So what is this mark of the beast today? That’s easy. It’s the gay rainbow.
Surely this is not a serious claim.
I think the reason we see such erroneous thinking like this is not just a lack of knowledge of the book of Revelation, but also the disbelief in a more literal interpretation of it.
All he cares about is the pot at the end of it.
They use the rainbow to mock the Creator who said that He would never again judge man in this way....The first Sodom and Gemorrah caused the flood. The rainbow is the symbol of His wiping it out.
They use it to flaunt it in His face.
The second judgment won’t be multi colored. It will be black and long-suffering.
It is not surprising that they chose the rainbow. In scripture, the rainbow is a symbol of Christ.
See #4
So far as biblical interpretation, the mark of the beast cannot be anything that can be forced on a person such as a tattoo, a bar code, an implant. The bible says we are able to refuse it.
So, those other things a person can hold you down and tattoo you, or skin implant you, or bar code you. They are not the mark of the beast.
It is something you willingly give your mind (forehead) and your service (hand).
I have never seen scripture to substantiate or support that view.
Hi panzer, I agree that they mock the Creator by using the rainbow. Sodom and Gomorrah, however, were after the flood. You are also right that they were destroyed. They were the ones destroyed by fire and brimstone.
I heard the rainbow means fire and that not flood but fire will be the “punishment”
Roy G. Biv is spinning in his grave!
Me neither. It's an idea that just might fit, so it's open to discussion.
Revelation 7 Please read it. Between the opening of the 6th and 7th seals, an angel descends from heaven with the seal of the living God and he cries out “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the bond servants of our God on their foreheads.”
This is done first, Satan copies this with having his followers get the mark after the opening of the 7th seal which is a three parter. The three parts are three “woes” and the third is the actual reign of the beast and the false prophet when the marks are given out.
Best thing to do is make your own outline.
Interesting take on the mark.
Thank you for posting as I have not seen this theory before now.
:>)
Thanks for the suggestion. Also, do you think there is an actual stamp with ink that the angel puts on the forehead of the bond servants of God?
