A poll of what YOU think the Mark of the Beast is. Is it here? Is it imminent? Please refrain from telling us what other denominations or posters believe, just give us your insights. Thank you.
I wasn’t trying to correct you. I found that and thought it would be nice to post, but if it helps all the better! Sometimes it’s hard to keep the events in their correct order.
“If a chip was implanted it could easily accept or decline transactions just as credit/debit cards now work
It could use political designation as the first condition of accepting or declining transactions.”
What we have observed over the past decade is all leading up to what we will face. The doxing, the cancel culture, the medical tyranny, vaccine mandates, government spying, government tyranny against any opposition, lockdowns, two tier justice..... all are the precursors of what’s coming. Our eyes are wide open and we are aware. Our job is to make others aware... others that have their eyes wide shut and their heads firmly planted... in some region called denial.
Exactly. But it was a very insightful post. One that I bookmarked for myself.
We’re not there, yet, but the pieces are all falling into place. Digital currency, digital ID, social credit, the Internet and even the covid shots all set the stage for the implementation of “the Mark”.
As for what global event might be used to trigger such a thing, I kind of think that the sudden Rapture of millions of Christians might be just the thing the coming anti-Christ will use to leverage control of the world’s governments.
As a believer in a pre-tribulation rapture, I think this is mostly an interesting academic exercise, since I expect to be partying at the seven-year wedding feast during this time. But, in the event that this is an incorrect interpretation of end-times events, at least we know what the roadmap to the end looks like ;-)

Shepherds Chapel student? That is what I learned on there. I am not sure what it is, but I am not taking the biochip, the tatto, or a mark. It is the line to die for. Of course I will also not work for them, or follow their lies.
The lies will be incredible, ships from the heavens? Lightning at the snap of a finger. Who can make war with the Beast, nobody, because The Beast will be One World Order.
Your number memorized?
——>What we do know is that it’s NOT Sunday worship. In fact in fullness it is not yet here and will not be until the antichrist rises and the church is Raptured.
Who’s the Beast/Antichrist power? It’s the PAPACY. 300+ years of Reformers said it, and they proved it FROM THE BIBLE.
What is their stated MARK OF AUTHORITY? Changing God’s 7th-day-Sabbath to Sunday.
“Deny the authority of the Church and you have no adequate or reasonable explanation or justification for the substitution of Sunday for Saturday in the Third - Protestant Fourth - Commandment of God... The Church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact.”
—Catholic Record, September 1, 1923.
“Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change was her act. And the act is a mark of her ecclesiastical power and authority in religious matters.”
—C. F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons, in answer to a letter regarding the change of the Sabbath, November 11, 1895.
“The Sabbath was Saturday, not Sunday. The Church altered the observance of the Sabbath to the observance of Sunday. Protestants must be rather puzzled by the keeping of Sunday when God distinctly said, ‘Keep holy the Sabbath Day.’ The word Sunday does not come anywhere in the Bible, so, without knowing it they are obeying the authority of the Catholic Church.”
—Canon Cafferata, The Catechism Explained, p. 89.
“Reason and sense demand the acceptance of one or the other of these alternatives: either Protestantism and the keeping holy of Saturday, or Catholicity and the keeping holy of Sunday. Compromise is impossible.”
—John Cardinal Gibbons, The Catholic Mirror, December 23, 1893.
“Sunday is our mark of authority...The church is above the Bible, and this observance is proof of that fact.” Catholic Record, September 1, 1923.
God’s authority comes from the fact that He is our CREATOR, as clearly stated in Revelation 14:
7And he said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come. WORSHIP the One who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and the springs of waters.”
That language is taken from the 4th commandment in Exodus 20.
11For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Those who DON’T receive the Mark of the Beast keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Revelation 14: 12Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
The MOTB will be about WORSHIP and God’s AUTHORITY. Those who choose Sunday over God’s 7th-day-Sabbath will receive the Mark of the Beast and will be lost forever. No coming back from that.
——>How can a person worship the antichrist which has yet to make his presence known?
Daniel 7 CLEARLY states that the Little Horn ANTICHRIST power arises out of the 4th beast (Pagan Rome), and lasts until the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ. Literally every reformer knew this from the bible.
19Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet; 20And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows. 21I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; 22Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
The Little Horn Antichrist power comes out of PAGAN ROME and lasts until the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ.

——>Daniel 9:24-27 tells us at exactly 3 1/2 years this antichrist will break the covenant with Israel and will set himself upon the throne in the rebuilt Temple claiming to be (g)od himself.
3 1/2 years, 1260 days, 42 months, time, times, and half a time = 1260 YEARS, just like Daniel’s 70 week prophecy = 490 YEARS.
Daniel’s 490 YEARS are continual and unbroken. They are the first 490 years of the longer 2300 day/YEAR prophecy. There is no 7-year magic carpet transport over 2000 years into the future.
Prophetic days are YEARS.

Thanks for the palm print scanner link, and also the RFID link at #146.
In future pandemics these would be promoted as “contactless” payment/checkout.

John was in prison. Might make the Romans kinda mad if he started saying bad things about them. They knew his address and they could be pretty harsh. So hence the disguised verbiage but the ones who lived at the time were familiar with the practice of making names into numbers and other symbolisms.
