Even as I write this article and give it the title, I know, and any student of Bible Prophecy likely knows, that there are way more than 50 reasons why the Covid-19 vaccine, or should I say … the jab, jab, jab … jab, is not the mark of the beast. When one considers all the events that must actually achieve fulfillment within Daniel’s 70th-week before the Mark event is officially introduced, a student of Bible Prophecy understands 50 reasons is really just a smidgen of what will actually transpire before the Mark becomes an official reality. But when I...

However we may, as individuals, define this life-altering period, it has indeed changed our lives, and – it has changed how we must view the future, in an unprecedented way. Let’s examine that condition, “normal,” and see what was ongoing prior to this period. 1) Unborn humans were/are still being slaughtered by the millions. 2) Every depravity against God’s firmly established...
