COVID-19 and The Mark of the Beast

Watching the news a few days ago, I saw photos and videos of those protesting the COVID-19 quarantine on full display. I’m growing weary of how certain biblical texts are attached to certain political movements and demonstrations—texts that are, quite frankly, misused and misunderstood. Sadly, Christianity ends up getting misrepresented in the process.

At the prodding of my wife (who thinks I should be a bit more vocal about these sorts of things), let me offer a few thoughts that might be helpful to keep in mind when you see pictures like this float around the news and social media.

The Mark of the Beast

I know of no reputable biblical scholar or theologian who would endorse that the COVID-19 quarantine or a vaccine is related to the “mark of the beast”. For starters, in Revelation, the “mark of the beast” is by no means a medical procedure. Most likely, it’s not even a physical or visible mark at all. Contrary to some of the more fear-inducing theories that have in the past gained steam in some evangelical circles, the “mark” is not at all something that could be accidentally taken either.

Why? Because the mark of the beast (Rev. 13:16-18) is a mark that is closely tied to the worship of the beast (13:12, 15; cf. 19:20; 20:4). Thus, the mark of the beast is a mark of loyalty and devotion to the beast.

Moreover, when you compare those passages where the mark of the beast is discussed with passages like Rev. 7 and 14, it is plausible to think that the mark of the beast is most likely a sign that identifies you as something you already are—namely wicked and evil, a person of the dragon. I say this because when you read Rev. 7:1-8 and 14:1 (where the mark of the Lamb is discussed), you’ll notice it is a mark given to God’s people, God’s servants, in order to identify them as such and, of course, to protect them. They get the mark of the Lamb because they are already united with the Lamb.

It seems pretty evident that all of this is the case because these two marks—the mark of the beast and the mark of the Lamb—are meant to be seen as two polar realities, two opposite signs, marking out as it were two different types of people, namely, the wicked on the one hand and the righteous on the other.

What all this means is that the “mark of the beast” is most likely a spiritual, non-visible mark; it’s a mark of loyalty and worship and is not, therefore, something you could accidentally accept.

So you don’t need to fear getting the beast’s mark by taking a vaccine—unless, of course, you plan to treat the vaccine as a sort of symbolic expression or “unholy sacrament” (sorry for the oxymoron!) of your wilful and public rejection of the Christian faith that you despise. If that’s you and if that’s your plan, then it’s not the vaccine that’s the problem.

About that Beast….

Any interpretation of Revelation that results in “the beast” becoming the central focus (and dreaded fear) of your eschatology most definitely suggests that you’ve completely misunderstood the book entirely. The Neronic phantom would love the attention you’re giving him, but quite frankly, he doesn’t deserve it.

Proof that we give too much attention to him is perhaps clear when we make the following observation: most Christians are only familiar with those texts that talk about the “mark of the beast” (e.g., Rev 13:16-18) and not about those texts that talk about the “mark of the Lamb” (e.g., Rev. 14:1).

That’s interesting to me. I mean, it’s all understandable, I suppose. In popular culture, after all, the “mark of the beast” has received way more attention, becoming quite the obsession for many. (Beasts are loud and attention-grabbing; lambs could go more unnoticed and ignored.) I think, though, that it might be better to get one’s theology from places other than pop culture’s sensationalized films and best-selling fictional books. A mere suggestion.

Speaking of sensationalism, it is interesting how things cycle in and out the way they do. Even in our own lifetimes, for example, the “mark” was first attached to social security numbers, then to credit cards. Now, apparently, certain interpretations of the COVID-19 quarantine are making their own contributions to evangelical lore.

Much of this sensationalism not only reveals ignorance about the biblical text, not least with respect to its historical context, but as a pastor I should also add that what particularly angers me is how such ignorance serves to spread needless fear among God’s people—a good reminder that theology has consequences.

Whose Revelation Is It?

Popular interpretations of “Revelation” are often forgetful (negligent?) of the fact that this book is “The revelation of Jesus Christ” (Rev. 1:1). Many people (not least on social media) treat it as if it were the revelation of the dragon and his wrath. The sillier teachers of eschatology focus so much of their attention on endless speculations concerning the Antichrist, the “mark of the beast,” etc., that I truly wonder if they think Revelation is primarily about revealing the satanic.

Two things to say about this: (1) Such assumptions about Revelation treat Satan as the star of end-times speculations, breeding, once again, unnecessary fear in good folks. And (2), such views are simply wrong: Neither the dragon nor the beast are the stars of the show; thus, they shouldn’t be the focus of our obsessions.

To the contrary, the point of Revelation is to reveal and uncover the victory of the Lamb and the victory the Lamb shares with his people. Jesus is the focus. This, quite frankly, is rather old news. In fact, it’s 2,000-year-old news. It’s basic theology. And yet, it’s ignored.

I suspect, though, that much of the misguided eschatological hype has very little to do with theology per se and much more to do with certain political ambitions that could be obtained by weaponizing key biblical texts (e.g., Rev 13) for their own ends—a sort of neronic/beastly thing to do, really. Such is the politics of our time, though.

Let’s Play the Game

Let’s pretend that the beast and his mark were, in fact, associated with the COVID-19 quarantine or with some related vaccine, as this sign insinuates. (PSA: it’s not, but just pretend with me for a minute.) Even so, if it were the case, it makes very little biblical sense to fight against the beast with things like the American flag and the 2nd Amendment (you may be interested to know that I saw one protester with a gun; what’s the point in protesting with a gun?).

At any rate, protesting “the beast” and his “mark” with threats of this world’s weapons is to fight the enemy with ways of the enemy. But you can’t advance God’s agenda with violence or with threats of violence. If you live by the sword, well, you know…

In many ways, then, when a person tries to advance the Kingdom of God by means of violence, ironically, they show themselves to have more in common with the beast and the dragon than with the Lamb. We are taught that, to the contrary, as Christians we overcome the enemy “by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of [our] testimony” (Rev. 12:11).

In other words, we overcome by the ways of Christ, not by the ways of Caesar. So, if and/or when you see silly signs like these, don’t let them induce fear or panic in your heart or mind. I’d honestly not give them any more credence than a quick roll of the eye.

The Theologian’s Burden

If you are a Christian biblical scholar or theologian, now is the time to help others navigate the slew of information out there. Perhaps you could seek ways to provide biblically-based guidance and theologically-coherent direction to those who are either uninformed or misinformed when it comes to eschatology—not least as it is being understood in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you are a pastor or local church leader, I encourage you to take advantage of reputable resources on eschatology to pass onto your congregation. There are highly-respectable scholars writing on the subject—scholars who are committed to careful research, meticulous reflection, and timely application. Digging into these resources will be time well-spent.

  • Rev 13: 16-17 lends itself to an understanding that the mark is more than spiritually symbolic, but tangible. It will be something by which you will be able to buy and sell. As for the Covid-19 connection, I only look at it in the light of those end times where all people will be under one rule. Before this happened, I always wondered what would it take for everyone to submit to the same rule. This pandemic shows how easily it can happen. I am not saying that Covid-19 or the related vaccine tracking is the mark, not at all.

    • Robert, I agree with your conclusion. This is what I explain to those who are feeling uneasy about the vaccine that could generate a tracing. To see even Syrian refugee camp directors dressing up as a virus and chasing kids to keep make them aware of the invisible killing machine, struck another chord. ALL are being controlled right now willing to give up liberty and freedom with no questions, all for “safety”. This is a preliminary to see how quickly people will be submissive. I also disagree with this Pastor regarding the Mark. It will be tangible to be able to buy or sell. The mark of the Lamb will be spiritual mark.

        • Today, the Beast government requires us to wear a mask if we wish to buy or sell. Hmmm… “Mask” is only one letter away from “mark”. Just an interesting observation, folks…

          • your right on, the mask is the conditioning phase to the mark which is looking to be no more than 3 yrs away,

          • the issue is you aren’t wearing the mask on your right hand, or your forehead, nor is it a number of a man.

            a big issue with social media Christians is they look for the antichrist to be revealed far more than they look for GOD being revealed.

          • Actually, if you look up the meaning of Buy from revelation 13, it can also to to GO INTO the marketplace. Yes people, the masks are a precursor to the Mark of the Beast, make no mistake about that. It is social conditioning and it in itself is a Huge Occult ritual. Censorship is also in full force. What’s the symbol for censorship? A face with something covering the mouth. Anyone who speaks out, no matter who they are even doctors and immunologists, are silenced and many channels are being outright deleted from Youtube. This is Nazi Germany starting all over again. NO masks, No test, No Vaxx, No Mark! Take a stand now.

          • Gigi, Phil Welsh’s example is not necessarily misleading. The mask (as Dr. Fauci said) is “symbolic”, thus it is most probably a precursor to the mark (including vaccines, RFID chips etc.). Thus you can’t expect it to cover e-commerce at this stage. However, almost every website has CV-19 featured on them, probably meant to sensitize the traffic thereof to the coming requirement, be it a certain type of identification that allows you to trade electronically, just as the mask allows you to trade physically. Either way, the whole exercise is to “sensitize” the masses.

            PS: The mask is not here to stay. People are not going to wear masks forever. However, there will be a trade-off before they are allowed to take them off. That will be in the form of a vaccine, a chip or something. The ultimate substitute thereto is the Mark of the beast. That is where the mask ritual is pointing us to, hence it is tied to economic activities (buy or sell).

            Question is, for those of us who think the mask issue cannot be linked to the coming mark of the beast, what are you going to do when they eventually tell you to ditch the mask and take the mark?

          • Gigi, very interesting observation. I’m no longer allowed into stores for refusing to wear a mask. I now eat from street vendors, and am at peace with it.

          • I’ve been saying that the masks are a precursor to “The Mark.” This is the conditioning phase. This phase is enabling those who are behind this; physical & spiritual, to assess how effective & efficient they can be at altering the population. This is my observation.

          • Masks are the image of the beast that the bible prohibits us to worship, That is why the bible says we are saved by grace through faith, Amen! Because as i see now even us who profess to be born again are already part of the image of the beast. May God have mercy on us, The devil and his agents have been deceptive and still are. None will buy or sell without the mask the image, this has started , the final mark of the beast will be the vaccine is coming our way soon. The vaccine is there and this satanist are just buying time that many people may die so as to cause fear among us and this will make us to accept the mark, Neuralink, dot quantum tatoo, AI , UN ( WHO) China are all behind this, Good news is that we must hold on to faith, Jesus Christ will destroy finally all these Plans of wickedness from the kingdom of darkness. We must repent in truth, let others know about this tricky ways of the enemy. However this is the start of the end times, it may take even 10 ,9,8,7,5 years for the whole world to be controlled by this globalists, however our Lord Jesus Christ will finish them all in a brink of an eye.

          • Luke 6:31 would be closer to our reality.
            “Just as you want others to do for you, do the same for them.”
            Wearing a mask tells others that you care about their health. It is not a mind control device.

            Wearing a mask (or not wearing one) has nothing to do with buying or selling. I live in a city where the local ordinance (law) requires all citizens of our city to wear a mask in public places. However, it is up to the business owners to determine if they want to enforce that ordinance. Since the ordinance went into effect, I have seen some people wear a mask and some not wear a mask. IOW, the businesses are not going to kick anyone out (and lose revenue) for NOT wearing a mask! Business are in busines to make money! You won’t make any money if you kick out your customers!

          • @John I think it would be fair to speak specifically about your own region/country in this regard. To say that “wearing a mask (or not wearing one) has nothing to do with buying or selling” is to err. I eat from street hawkers now due to stores denying me entry for refusing to wear a mask. If that doesn’t link the mask to ‘buying and selling’, I don’t know what will. That’s the first point. The second point is, Luke 6:31 is NOT talking about masks or any polarizing issues like the mask is, or draconian laws imposed on citizens by a government. It speaks about societal relations in normal day-to-day living. Kindness and mercy is not tied to a mask, please let’s not cherry pick scripture in a bid to bend it to fit our own narrative.

            Third: In my country the mask is mandatory. Shop owners; store managers; building owners; public transport operators etc. are required by law to deny entry to non-mask wearers like me. Failure to do so will result in them being arrested.

            Lastly, in regards to your assertion that wearing a mask is a sign for ‘caring’ about someone else’s health: I would like to know, how am I a risk to someone who is wearing a mask if masks are as ‘safe’ as they are purported to be?

            PS: Given that people are not going to wear masks forever, how would you apply that same logic to the coming vaccine and ultimately the coming of the mark of the beast? Yes, the mask is a precursor to the mark of the beast, in case you wondered.

          • This reply is to John’s comment; beginning with the Scripture from Luke 6:31, “Just as you want others to do for you, do the same for them.”
            While I totally agree John with the Scripture of course; I can not and will not say that “It is not a mind control device,” I would like to share something with you that; if you want to see; you will need to see quickly since the site only keeps new videos up for a short time for the public to see; after that they are available only to those who subscribe. Please watch this:https://www.worldviewweekend.com/tv/video/case-against-masks-and-fake-science-and-political-agenda-driving-mandatory-orders
            I hope that this helps clarify some things.

          • Key words. “Conditioning phase” no one said the mask was the mark. It was specifically called a conditioning phase. To control people.

            You are choosing to obey the satanic system by participating in its sorceries. Vaccines are NOT of God. If you believe you need a vaccine to be healthy, you are denying God’s amazing power by rejecting the immune system He gave us….. that works so wonderfully when we treat our bodies right, as we are supposed to. You are denying God and His power and giving praise to man and his power. You are placing the system above God when you accept the rules of the system that clearly defy what God instructs. Please, repent now and ask for discernment because the fact that there are christian leaders out there teaching this LIES from the pit of hell is so disturbing…

            Another thing, when you have to chose a vaccine that will alter your dna (with the enzyme named LUCIFERASE btw) forever so you can continue on in the beasts system (buying and selling) rather than stand up for Christ and the divine beauty of our God by keeping your body as He created, you are choosing to worship the devil and his system. You’re chosing evil over whats right. Money is not of God, vaccines are not of God, drugs are not of God. There are countless men and women of God who have been led into the wilderness and GOD PROVIDED ALL THEY NEEDED. Many of us are being instructed this same way. You are a wolf in sheep clothing.

          • I agree, i have been reading so much on this and the islam to. I will explain soon. People are blind to what is really happening!
            The devil works in many ways and just look at our leadera, the same syatems as the pharoah, in moses time. Corrupt, satan control, control and force over the people.

          • My exact thoughts! The mark may already be here, subtle but UNIVERSAL. I would agree with the author that we must stay out of negativity and NOT SEE EVIL (seeing is creating). However are we to ignore the facts? Gates has a new patent that fits as a perfect puzzle piece. We are moving to a cashless society so they can tract all our spending. This new cryptocurrency patent will start out on the outside of us and eventually be planted inside of us with the ability to “monitor our actions and reward them accordingly” with cryptocurrency. Look up this patent just happens to end in 060606. And, the vaccine is supposed to contain some sort of luminescence which “allows” authorities to see if that person has taken the vaccine or not. Those that have not taken it will not be allowed to “buy or sell” and likely won’t even be able to leave their homes. How’s that for stripping freedoms?These puzzle pieces are not randomly happening at the same time. They are all connected for those with “eyes that see and ears that hear.” The challenge is to know/be aware of these things and yet stay out of negative thoughts. The real power lies with seeing LOVE when others fear. To live in the world but not be of it.

          • Absolutely… and this should not be brushed off lightly. Especially in consideration of the fact Bill Gates has been chosen as the high guru of covid-19 “protection.”

          • Please people stop falling into weird conspiracy theories ! Please ! The virus is real, people are really getting sick, wearing masks can help stop the spread of the virus or from people passing it to each other, lock down is for a friggen reason and its not to control people…it is to STOP the spread of the virus ! it is temporary until we all do our part to get the virus under control or even eliminate it. You see this is how NORMAL sensible people think ! Try it. There has been many viruses and pandemic throughout history and every time they have to quarantine, isolate, make people wear mask and social distance and even lock down.Every time they eventually got the pandemic or virus under control and lives went back to usual over time. So why is everyone going off the wall today ? I will tell you why. Because we have the world wide web today and conspiracies spread far and wide and rapid ! Than some people who are naturally paranoid or inclined fall into the conspiracies and continue to spread them.
            That means we will not be able to get this virus beat and people will continue to spread it, more will get sick and die and we will end up having got lock down again to get it under control.
            If not for these people and their conspiracies we might have it under control now and be close to back to normal ! I blame all of you that we are still going through this ! Grow up ! You are the problem !
            Humans are stupid ! WE are the reason for pandemics and viruses that put us in these situations.
            Humans do not take care of God’s earth , the water or air or treat it with respect. We destroy it, pollute it, misuse it,. abuse it, take it for granted and greed and ignorance is the cause of it ! Consequences of that result in disease, viruses, pandemics etc… We don’t even respect or take care of each other or God’s other creations ..Animals !
            As for the mark of the beast it is symbolic…on your forehead = your thoughts and believes, on the hands = your actions based on your believes
            Those who worship the beast will worship and believe in him and what he teaches or says ( forehead) then they will obey him and his teachings and do as he says ( hands)

            The buying and selling part will most likely be a way to tell the two groups apart. Could be an anything. An ID or chip etc…?
            It will be something where if you go to sell or buy you can be identified as someone who is a part of the group that obeys the beast and and willingly part of the group or can identify that you are not and refuse to be a part of it.

            Right now Trump is close to doing something like this. he has made some hints and if you payed attentions you would have spotted it.
            I am not an American but I have been paying attention to what is going on and the bible.
            Trump has been hinting for a long time that the democrats will have consequence for not supporting him . he already favour and help states that are red more than those that are blue states because that voted for him and supported him. The red states get more favoured emergency funding and help if there is a disaster. Trump is right on it. But when it comes to blue states he cuts and delays emergency funding in a disaster. That is fact !
            Even counting the cases of coronovirus he says blue states don’t count and should not be included in the number of cases counted. If you cannot see it you are blind ! It is clear as day where this is headed !
            he is already tracking individual people and has lists with people that are marked whether they are blue or red and even on some call them that are blue “deterrents.”.
            Even if you don’t it see it now the bible says that dark veil will be lifted and the Antichrist will be revealed…than you will know .

            I predict that Trump will get another 4 years and will use some system he comes up with to be able to identify his supporters and who does not support him. and separate them. into two groups.
            Those that follow him will get benefits and privileges like being able to buy and sell, get food etc.. This group will do well.
            While those who do not follow him and refuse will be cut off and will not be able to buy or sell. This group will struggle to get even food and necessities etc..They will be refused and denied services or financial help . Unless they take the mark on their hands ( obey) and forehead ( listen and believe)and follow too like the other group is.

            I also predict punishment to the group that refuses to listen, follow and obey, They will be arrested, jailed, tortured, threatened to give up their own beliefs and go along with the beast or face the consequences.Some will be killed.
            The beast ( Trump) will also encourage his supporters and followers to go after the other group who will not and refuse to follow him and do them harm and maybe kill them. His group will be glad to do it too.

            Things will be very dark.

            Trump will help build the 3rd temple in Jerusalem and the Israelite’s will be so amazed by Trump they will calling him the king of Israel, the chosen one, the second coming of Jesus..
            They will even have him sitting in the temple on a throne as if he is the most high.In fact he will refer to himself that way.

            He will bring peace in the middle east too and all will seem almost perfect.

            But the Lord God Almighty WARNED in the scriptures that just when ” they ” say peace comes sudden destruction !!!!!

            This is my prediction ! Trump and America are going to play a big role in the end times but not the way his supporters think it will.

            The bible description of Satan is that he is boastful and bragging about himself all the time and all he does and can do, he is fierce and cruel, divisive, greedy, proud of himself, powerful, deceitful, subtle in how he lures and seduces people into following him or doing what he wants ( tricking them).
            You don’t see it but that is Trump 100 fold to the max !
            I should mention that when God’s timing reveals who the Antichrist and beast is even some of his supporters will turn away from him when they realize who he really is ! They will join those who refuse to follow him and suffer the same punishment with them.

            Laugh now…..I predict this is going to happen because it is somewhat happening right now ! A prelude !

            Trump supporters somehow think God, guns and Trump will keep American free but God is a god of love and peace not violence ! It is GOD”S TRUTH that sets us free ! Everything Trump does, says and how he behaves or talk about others is so unlike Jesus it is the complete opposite ( “Anti ” Christ). He doesn’t even know 1 scripture by heart ! Not even the basic John 3:16 which even kids know ! He cannot share a favouritr scripture because he doesn’t know one ! he cannot say what his favourite book in the bible is because he doesn’t even know one let alone pronounce one .

            But what is scary is that he has NEVER asked God Almighty for forgiveness ! Never repented or confessed his sins and in fact basically said he has none and never does anything to have to ask God for forgiveness ! He thinks drinking a little wine and eating the cracker does that ! Sorry but that is not what that represents of does ! In fact you are supposed to confess your sins to God, make peace and amends with everyone you have hurt or done wrong to and confess all of your sins and repent…than it is ok to take communion. If you do not do those things to prepare you have brought God’s condemnation on yourself ! The beast or Antichrist will never confess his sins or say he did anything wrong and will never ask God for forgiveness !

            I was one of the teachers who taught bible lessons in adult bible class and have studied the bible intently.
            I have always been keeping watch !

          • “Mask is needed to buy and sell”
            No. You can still have your items delivered or arrange curb pickup.

            “Mask is one letter from Mark”
            Sure. In English. In what language(s) was the Bible first written? Not English.

            Maybe y’all should consider that maybe a 2000+ year old book written by a bunch of sheep farmers isn’t as relevant today as you think it is.

          • By that logic: Don is only one letter off of “con” and Trump is almost exactly the same as “chump.” You have the most ridiculous reasoning for your claims. Countless words are similar to others.

            Actual Logic: “Pro-Life” is supposed to care about the lives of others. If you say, “It’s my body and I have a right to kill other human beings because of my choice of what I do with it,” then you are also saying the same thing as pro-abortion people. Don’t be a hypocrite. Start living what you claim to believe. Start caring about the lives of other people.

            Satan is the Lord of Lies; his prophets are liars. Jesus is the Lord of Truth, His Prophets are honest and true.

            In Matthew 4:5-7, Satan tempts Jesus by telling Him that, because Scripture promises God will keep us safe from harm, then Jesus should be able to step off a ledge, and angels should carry Him to safety.

            Jesus replied that Scripture also says, “Thou shalt not test [tempt] the Lord thy God.”

            In other words, don’t go doing stupid crap and expecting God to keep you safe.

            If a Preacher or a leader tells you that you and everyone around you will be magically safe in the midst of a pandemic, they are speaking like Satan, the Lord of Lies, and NOT like Jesus, the Lord of Truth.

            Which one are you listening to?

          • I agree its worship n his name. Were the bride of christ n[ his name ]but wut is not makn sense is [they would cause] n you could not buy sell or trade [ Cause ] n could not buy sell or trade or cause you to be killed that’s where it adds ‘you know”a wut???that adds another’ bit ‘

          • Bible wasn’t written in English bro, and I dont know if the word mask even existed in ancient hebrew

          • @Anonymous, what does the bible not being written in English and whether the word mask existed in ancient Hebrew have anything to do with the Beast government requiring us to wear masks? And that “mask” is but one letter away from “mark”?

          • Yeah, in English. You know the Bible wasn’t written in English right? And that people speak other languages where the word for mask and mark sound nothing alike?

          • You do realize that English wasn’t spoken in biblical times and when the bible was written, right?

          • “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”

          • @Phil Barish You seem to assume that everyone’s got access to the internet? You also didn’t consider illiteracy in your assumption. Besides, they mandated that people were a mask on a Zoom meeting. Yeah you read that right… a mask through the screen. So it’s a matter of time before you are required to enter a digital covid-pass code to make an online purchase. Clue? Almost every website has a cvd-19 button on them.

          • Amen brother – I agree. – mask is the first step. Vaccine and not being able to travel without it is the second – then they have you at their mercy ! No – this is all a definite precursor to the end and the mark – please do not shrug it off and say – oh well – the govt says we should just obey and get it !! Let’s just do what we are told without question !

          • Agree… There’s always motives to a bigger plan! Do your our homework folks! Beforehand. I’m not a Trump fan. But’ I do agree with (fake news)! Beware. Fact check and pray ask God to lead and guide you into (all truth). He will! Believe me I should know! bkpout!
            Read the signs of the times.. folks!

        • It is now November and the vaccine is ready. My friend in Germany has said that governmet officials are saying that unless you get the vaccine and proof…a chip inserted..that you can not work..shop or be in public…Hmm sounds much like. Those without the Mark will not be able to buy not sell to me and certainly sounds like a very traceable Mark place in/ on the body of those who received the vaccine..Without something similar to a chip just how would they be able to track millions of people ? Think about it…

          • @AfTicker Very well said. Amazing how prophecy is unfolding right in front of our eyes. Let’s be steadfast in the Lord and we shall be saved. NO to vaccination/RFID microchip. These are precursors to the coming mark of the beast.

          • The GEORGIA guidestones say something about uniting the world… What WOULD it take? GOOD Question. The entire world’s governments commiting to the common interests to unite by allowing the lesser of two evils [corona virus traceability] which eventually grows into the ultimate evil… [THE BEAST] THAT CAME FROM THE OCEAN WITH SEVEN HEADS AND TEN HORNS.get the vaccine while you can… But beware of the mark that will eventually follow… You are supposed to get a SECOND dose… Watch what they will make us all do for it…Armageddon is coming… You shoulda just legalized marijuana back in the 60s, man… NA. heroine is pretty fucked up shit so in contrast, any kind of addiction is also abysmal…

        • I don’t think u r right when u say it’s not physical mark or visible mark unless u didn’t understand what the Bible said.

          Without a mark humans will not be able to buy or sell, so this shows it’s about something visible like the way barcode function in stores that what will be happening to human beings.

          So the Vaccine itself will be doing that, those without vaccine will not be allowed to enter in shops and not do everything even to associate with people.

          The whole thing is about Human Control it all started in 1960’s experiments done by people like Professor Jose Delgado etc.

          In this vaccine people will be implanted with RFID Chips whereby their system that makes them humans would be closed in other words they will be like robots, that why God he is encouraging us not to receive this mark.

          If u don’t know more about 666 please don’t encourage people to take this vaccine.

        • Your assertion is construe because there are similarities interms of the Biblical codified and experiences of these days

      • I agree with mothershoe, we are trained in the ways of the world already, for example how our identity documents are important in the world, the mark of the beast will be a visible thing that will be easy to be seen when you buy or sell. The love of money is a root to all evil, people will do anything to get their business going, this pandemic created economic crisis already where people will gladly accept anything to get things going. May God keep us, it will surely be a horrible time for us, we are going to be killed for not having the mark, how will our enemies see us without a mark? Satan deceives mostlyt in what people see.Let us trust in the one who can destroy both the body and soul in hell. We will suffer like our Lord suffered for His name’s sake. May God give us the ability to stand. We are praying for all the believers to stand firm and wash their robes daily with the Word.

        • Why is the importance of joining the make of the beast when we have a living God ? 231776719987

        • U can’t say it any plainer than that Garyt
          That’s the bottom line !!!!!!
          It’s not spiritual it has to be an implant to be used
          Mark in Hebrew means chip

          • to above the one that said masks show brotherly love BS brotherly love is telling people what is to come and warnign them so they don’t have the mark of the beast. Masks are the worlds and a friend of the world is enemy to god. masks show fear plus from the CDC’s own website they don’t do anything but make you more susceptible to catching it. In a report on the CDC website they found that of those who caught Coronavirus up to 14 days before they caught it were wearing masks all the time and still caught it. The numbers who still caught it was over 70% so telling people it’s about brotherly love is a lie and the light is not in you.
            Jesus never wore one nor would he. Plus he’s never personally told me not to, but I see in his word that to do what the Govt. is telling you to do instead of what he says to do is following the world and mans Traditions more than him.
            Gods kingdom is not of this one we do out of our own fleshy needs and fears. Wearing a mask shows we worship this world more than his. brotherly love is more like when they need help, but wearing a maks is not helping them nor is it helping you. Ok and on that same page down bellow the ones who wore it all the time, they showed that those who never wore one only about 3.9% still caught it. So over 75% wore a mask and still caught it while only 3.9% who never wore one caught it. We’re being lied to by those who claim they care. As in decieved the whole world!!!!
            So yeah BS. THe secular world along with the false prophets teaching are a enemy to God.

          • So are the Hebrew people eating potato chips or potato marks? What about chocolate chi- , sorry, chocolate mark cookies?

        • The mark comes after the rapture. We will not be here for the mark. We are being conditioned for it with all that is going on…the mask, the being scanned for your temp , etc, but only those not raptured have to make the decision of taking the mark. We are getting a glimpse of what they are going to have to endure under one world government. I cringe every time I am at work and I have to stick my face in a face recognition temp measurement. I know it is only temporary for me, but it is here to stay for those left behind. if we don’t get raptured before the corona vaccine and we are forced to take it, while you are getting it in your loudest voice say the name of Jesus over and over again as well as say, “no weapon formed against me will prosper”. The nurse will probably think you lost your mind, but you are letting everyone in earshot know who your savior is!!! Jesus!!!!

        • Your opine is just what is the world through generic globalised activities, at different platforms that sieved information by informative escalation, through fascinated lured goodies, unfortunately the church is already a prey because many have being carried away by hugely convinced monetary and materialism to influence and ensure more memberships

      • says the person who will be first in line for the vaccine as soon as they tell you that can not buy or sell without it….THIS is the part in scripture you say NOTHING ABOUT! being evil or righteous has NOTHING to do with being told whether or not you are allowed to BUY AND SELL! that will need a mark that can be either SEEN OR SCANNED YOU LIBTARD!

        • Let us love one another in the way we talk and act, just as our LORD Jesus Christ loves us. We should not call each other names (libtard), sounds a bit mean. I believe also that the “mark of the beast” will be tangible. Let’s not take any vaccine whether or not it is related to covid-19 that is probably gonna be the microchip/mark of beast.
          God bless you all brothers and sisters in Christ, may we stand firm until the end and stay in the faith, hope and most important of all, love in and through Christ Jesus our LORD and Saviour! 🙂

        • Right. I mean he says the mark isn’t something that can be literally seen….well when you get a vaccine, you can’t see the vaccine. My hang up is that you can’t take the mark without knowing what it stands for…. I mean saying you have to have the vaccine in order to buy and sell is no different than saying you have to have money to buy and sell…..so when you accept the mark of the beast, you have to know that you are taking the MARK OF THE BEAST. It’s not like you get it, then few days later they say oh…gotcha!!! That was the mark of the beast in case you didn’t know, lol. When you take the mark, you are informed that it is what it is….right??? I’m not stating this, I’m simply asking…

          • Hi Ace. Google up Dr Ken Gentry on you tube. He has some good info on what you are talking about

          • Hey ace,
            you are correct, most people don’t quote Rev 20:4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They[a] had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

            looking a this verse implies that we have a choice to take it or not, we have to be consciously aware of the mark being giving to us and we have to choose to worship the beast. Not to mention that in order for us to take the mark of the beast, the beast has to be revealed, currently we still have no idea who the beast (antichrist) is. There is plenty of speculation that include several people that could be the beast but nothing concrete. I am not saying to not be aware of our current situation, but living in fear is against God’s plan for us.

        • I think you might be getting a bit worked up and fearful there Pepy and all for nothing. Don’t you know the prophecies in Revalation were all fulfilled in the 1st century AD. There is no future 666. No future mark of the beast.etc etc. So relax enjoy life, enjoy your faith.

          • read your Bible [King James 1611] you are DECEIVED! Revelation is a prophetic Book, it discloses events that are to come, not what has come centuries ago!!

          • @Truth Don’t waste your time and energy on @paddle on. Been trying to engage him on his claim but he never responds. He can’t even tell where we are in regards to biblical timing. He seems to think that the mask-wearing ritual and the coming vaccinations are all a random occurrence, and not precursors to the coming mark of the beast. He didn’t respond to my question of whether he’s going to take the vaccine, and if not, why not? He keeps cropping up on other people’s posts like a mushroom after a thunder, paddling on lies.

          • @Truth That patent was filed in the 1st century AD LOL. @paddle on be paddling lies here.

          • @paddle on thru It’s rather sad that you’d resort to name-calling instead of addressing the issue at hand. I have tried countless times to engage you on your assertions in regards to the (coming) mark of the beast, but to no avail. Just remember that these debates are not random, one of us shall be proven right or wrong one of these days. With the hope that we’d be humble enough to come back here and admit to our errors. Until then, so long.

          • Luvuyo. I have stated my position many times to you but you never take any notice. All this paranoia about the MOTB is quite Frankly laughable. The MOTB in Rev 13 and the Beast and the 2nd Beast and the inability to buy and sell have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the 21st Century. They were Bible Prophecies totally fulfilled in the 1st Century and all of them are connected to that Christian persecutor Nero Caesar. What the world is experiencing is a medical emergency called a pandemic, its not a plandemic, it has nothing whatsoever to do with Bible Prophecy. Medical experts for a 100 years have been warning the World that there are going to be w/wide panademics, they are a fact of life. Sometime after C-19 comes to an end, there will be another Pandemic sometime in the future just about guaranteed. When that will be no one knows. We are asked to wear masks to help prevent the spread of the virus, temp checks etc are purely medical procedures. The out of control conspiracy theories racing around social media are known as mass hysteria where people believe any absurdity put their way. Of all the creatures on Planet earth Humans are by far the most gullible. Its a scammers paradise. But you are welcome to believe whatever turns you on.

          • Nobody should listen to anyone who says todays current events have nothing to do with the MOTB. For real these people are either trolls or super religious blind people. Most of the prophecies were PARTIALLY fulfilled way back, and now they are going to be fully fulfilled after the BEASTS world wide 5g tracking system is up and running tracking your asses as you get the Beast Vaccine. Any research into the the NWO and the International Bankers plans, will prove that this has everything to do with biblical prophecy. How can people be so blind when the Rockefeller Foundation released a document called Lockstep outlining this very covid plandemic? The world economic forum did a mock run through it last year, there are thousands of experts now stating that this lockdown is lunacy and there is no pandemic. SO wake up people these vaccines are going to re encode your DNA and they are probably testing and prepping for the MOTB coming to you real soon in the next few years….

        • Peppy Gunz you are evil like your master Jesus say how can you say you love me and hate your brother you do not have the love of God in you.

      • THE BIBLE. “TODAY, “THE GOD” OF “THE MORAL GOVERNMENT” SAYS PLEASE NO MORE ARGUING BETWEEN EACH OTHER. I LOVE YOU GUYS. THANKS.

      • Mothershoe exactly! I encourage our Pastors to research a little more before they respond to pertinent issues like these. I feel his response hereto is a little bit casual and inadequately researched. For in his response he didn’t take into account the image of the beast and the worship thereof, and how that aspect will be “spiritual” as he suggests that the mark will be.

        • I’ve seen on YouTube Doctor’s from around the World have come foreward saying there is no and hasn’t been a true pandemic emergency. Not even scientific proof that COVID-19 even existed. It’s just another Flue. You can also go to: nomorefakenews.com to dicover the truth. Truth will make you fee!!

      • The covid 19 T.R.A.C.E Congress Bill is HR 6666 (Interesting). Headlines are already announcing complete global solidarity for the vaccine. I would not at all be surprised if they mandate it and use it as a way to control our buying and obtaining what we need. Won’t all these prophecies look like normal life living? Everything can be explained away. I don’t think things will look sci-fi or biblical so they won’t be so easily identifiable. That would defeat the purpose of faith I would think. And if people take the vaccine to be able to obtain what they need, aren’t they essentially going against their faith in the Bible Matthew 6:26 so essentially worshiping the government instead of God? I hate to say it but I believe the Government is a representative of Satan and everything is headed straight in the direction (their intent) of the new world order under one government under Satan worship. This virus (not naturally occurring and perfectly fear provoking and THE perfect way to control the entire world by forcing the vaccine) is a perfect means for the mark is the beast..through the vaccine (something we are all used to getting). We don’t know the chip won’t have 666 on it. Microscopic and may enable/disable our chip cards…what we’ll need to buy and sell as our currency now continues to be removed from our economy and will soon be valueless…

      • Yes, I agree. The bible literally says it will be placed in/on the forehead or hand (Rev. 13:16). The mark of the beast is about accessibility to survival goods. I see what this pastor means, that the focus is on “the beast”, but what is going on right now is that “they”are just putting out their feelers to where society stands in their own peotection of freedoms. It’s foing to get interesting.

      • The mark of the breast in your hand and forehead is the new world order that will come along because of the covid19. The cashless Road we are on. The might in our hand is the card your transactions are done with and in the head are the numbers you can used with or without a smart phone to do transfers . With our this might in your head or hands you can buy or sell. Satan is to smart to want to inject a chip. What he does is sweet in the the beginning but soar in the end. So convenience if you have a card. But if you use your imagination the cards are bad news.

        • The chip or whatever else they use will identify you and who’s side you are on.The beast with his laws and commands and worship of him or God’s word alone and following Jesus teaching alone. If you have” the so called chip” or Identification but refused to follow or worship the beast ..God is not going to punish you because you are worshipping and following him ( God) and his holy word not the beast’s word.

          Therefore it is not the chip itself that is the problem..it is that the chip identifies you and who’s side you are on..God’s or the beast’s. This what when you go into a store and get identified through the chip or whatever as not a follower of this beast you cannot buy or sell food and etc..The beast is not going to say you cannot buy or sell because you worship God and not him because he is going to be deceptive and make you think he is a believer in God and Jesus also. Only his teachings and what he wants you to do are opposed to God’s teaching and word .The beasts teachings will be doctrines of devils and a twisting of God’s word that same way Satan twisted God’s word subtly in the garden of Eden and tricked Adam and Eve into thinking it was ok to do what he was tempting them to do. That is why you need to ONLY listen to scriptures carefully ! Be on guard. he will be great at twisting scriptures and Jesus teachings and that is why the bible warns that even the elect will be deceived !

          Covid is the result of humans . We never take care of this earth and destroy it, pollute it etc.. it is just one of God’s plagues in the last days just as he warned us. Nothing wrong with the vaccine if it is safe and tested properly first.

          My plan is only listen to scripture and Jesus’ teachings. Be careful not to listen to anyone twisting scriptures even subtly. Pay attention to a person’s character and the fruit they bear ( there behaviour . words and actions) good tree do not bear bad fruit and bad tree do not bear good fruit. Trump has been nothing but bad his entire life and it is obviously if you willing to face the truth. Live your life, protect your health , stay safe etc…but keep watch and be ready. Conspiracy theories are not God’s word and do not come from God !!! Listen to God’s word alone…scriptures !

          When the vaccine is safe I would be willing to take it if this virus is not under control. I still worship God alone ! I still wear a mask because I care about my health and protecting others ( I feel that is a godly thing to do), I am ok with lock downs to get this virus under control. I call it responsible and adult ! God gave me a sound mind and conspiracies have no place in my life.Anti maskers are spreading this virus and making other sick..that is NOT godly behaviour ! It is plain stupid and selfish ! Quite silly !

          God is watching us He warned people in the last days would be lovers of self and not caring about each other. greedy and lovers of money not lovers of God.

          • It looks like those that don’t believe in conspiracy theories have their own conspiracy theories.

          • @Sophia, you are already deceived by satan. Any one with even a hint of spiritual discernment knows the mask and call for vaccines are all about the mark of the beast. Yet you welcome it. You show your true colors when you show your vitriol towards our president, who’s publicly honored the Lord Jesus many times. Even though he may be no Christian, he’s very sympathetic towards Christians and Jews; does recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, and moving the embassy mean anything to you?

            You hate this man you don’t even know so much, that you would rather side with Marxists, baby murderers, anarchists, perverts, and the like, over one who stands against them, and proven it by his track record. Seems to me like you’ve already taken the mark. Subtle! The crowd you support is by no means “subtle”. They are loud and proud with blood lust for the unborn, open perversion, riots, thievery, fraud an# etc…, and you believe they are better than a leader you don’t know that you hate without a cause.

          • @Dan I’d suggest that you stay out of politics. Don’t choose sides or associate yourself with either the Democrats or the Republicans, for both camps work for the same agenda. Strange that you are willing to attack Sophia on the basis that ‘your’ president has “publicly” honoured the Lord Jesus Christ many times… “Even though he may be no Christian.” Jesus said “This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.” – Matthew 15:8 Thus your president ‘honouring’ the Lord with his lips doesn’t mean much according to scripture. And the fact that he is “sympathetic” towards Christians and the Jews means nothing, and it is right at the heart of deception that we are about to witness. And NO! Him recognising Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moving the embassy doesn’t mean anything to me. If anything, that is preparation for the coming of the Antichrist and the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel (Daniel 11:31). Hence the mentioning and highlight of Jerusalem in this regard. And NO! No one can take the mark right now as the mark of the beast hasn’t arrived yet. All that we see starting from the mask-wearing ritual to the vaccine are all precursors thereto. Thus to suggest that Sophia has taken the mark “subtle” or not is NOT supported by scripture timeline or sequence of events. Keep watch that you may not be deceived.

          • Yes! and take 2020 ÷ by 666 = 30330

            This is the polls for Biden/Harris text polls number.

            And Google antifa.com

            Devils. Keep awake. America. Biden is all in on it 👿

          • I assume that everyone is healthy unless they tell me they are sick. Lots of research on mask waring and its ineffectiveness. Lot of fear mongering from our media outlets. If you feel better wearing a mask — your mask will protect you. If someone chooses not to wear one, their choice. I don’t think marks wearing should be equated with their love or lack thereof of others.

      • I think Dr. Halstead is well written on the subject. I don’t agree 100% tho. America was made scared by 911 20 years ago, we gave up numerous freedoms for so called security. Homeland Security in the form of cameras covering every inch of America. Those cameras will be now used for control, simple stuff. Covid is dividing us, scaring us further into submission, will absolutely steal numerous freedoms. Democracy is being used to destroy Democracy by the evil. I believe the Mark will be visible, but there is a lot that will take place over the next 6-7 months before people are forced to take it. If you believe in God fully, I’m thinking there is a good chance he will have given us all an opportunity to have saved ourselves and found him before that forced Mark is a must. Live right, be alert, read between lines, keep an extremely good eye on what’s going on to survive, try to help others see reality so they can be saved and avoid the Mark successfully. From what I’ve been reading we are going to see the beginning of the end over the next 6-7 months. I’m not saying this for sure, but I have been researching heavily. I expect Israel will be in a War within a week, chaos through Halloween at which time it will get real with the Opening of the Pit and the Great Revival. I love Jesus, I don’t speak or think like a ” Jesus Freak” per say, I am a realist who uses powers of observation, faith, and I am a critical thinker. Be prepared in everyway possible friends. Unfortunately the end is right around the corner, its about to get dangerous & ugly, get yourself right with God!

          • @paddle on thru You keep pointing people to this Dr. Ken Gentry as if he wrote the bible! Or he somehow have the power to save souls. Instead of pointing people to the bible! You need to stop.

          • Because Gentry is a Bible teacher and Theologian who specialises in teaching what Revelation is all about

          • I guess what you are saying is that there is no place in the Kingdom for Theologians, Bible scholars, respected Bible teachers. That everyone should just throw themselves into Revelation let their imagination run completely wild, even though they have not got the foggiest idea what the book is about. Express their absurd ideas about what the book is conveying on social media and put it forward as cast iron fact with no other possible interpretation.

        • Well spoken, Ron. I’m glad to hear a voice of reason within all of this comment section’s emotions. I find it strange that there is not good solid teaching that illustrates how so many things about this “pandemic” may be a prelude – a build up to the end…of which the mark is a big part of. I’m still keeping my eyes and ears open.

      • I tend to agree with you, mothershoe. I would rather not take the chance. The one world rule is coming and you’re right, this is a test to see just how effective their methods of controlling the population are and how quickly they can get us to submit.

        • Theologins and not saying there is no room but theologins tend to interpret with worldly minds not spirtually deserned ones. Theologins also said to not cannon many spiritually discerned books using their own agenda’s to not do so. I’v listened to theologins on some shows and they teach gogly goop they don’t rely on truth but tradition for thier teachings.
          That said: yes there’s plenty of room but if one is teaching the mark of the beast is nothing to fear and we should all turn a blind eye to something like Rome or Nero or something that was meant for us not them thousand of years ago then no…

          The time has come as Jesus warned “even the elect will be deceived”
          God please give us wisdom in these perilous times, because wisdom and understanding comes from Thee
          07.02.2021

          • @Patricia “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, they shall deceive the very elect.” – Matthew 24:24

            Notice how the above scripture say “If It Were Possible”, meaning it won’t be possible for the elect to be deceived. Nowhere does it say “even the elect will be deceived”

      • English: “17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is 666.”

        If true man created the virus corona.
        Corona has 6 etters, if you add each letter alphabet placement and add these numbers it is 66. We are required to stand 6 feet apart.
        To buy from stores as of now must wear mask (covering the head) will we need gloves ( covering hands)
        The Holy spirit will teach the born again Christian all things. As in Noah’s day people will continue living life as normal until the flood hits. God loves all his creation, it rains on the good and the bad. Science is food for the flesh. God is not a God of confusion. Man will figure out a cure, God willing. But is my belief in man or God. Christmas a time of giving gifts or a time of kneeling before Christ. A time of living as normal or a time of change. Trust in the Lord and He will guide our way.
        With the love of Christ,

          • @AlongcameJones Dr. Gentry’s gonna rock you to sleep. Otherwise how do you explain the required mask-wearing in order to gain access into stores; buildings; public transport; healthcare facilities et al? And now the coming vaccine which will carry the same benefits as the mask? Flex Fighters/Flex Armstrong is talking about a “smart mark” that’ll be embedded in your arm, that’s called predictive programming. The coming vaccine has a chip attached to it, can you explain that? Would you take the vaccine? If not, why not? Would you take the microchip? If not, why not? Are you/Dr. Gentry suggesting that we rip the Book of Revelation off our bibles and toss it to the nearest trash-can because that part of prophecy has already come to pass in the 1st century? Can we come back to this comment when either of us is proven wrong? Yes I’ll be on Dr. Ken Gentry’s Youtube channel as well, to sincerely apologies if he is right in his teachings. Or to remind him about his false teachings if he’s proven wrong. Can we agree on that?

        • @Tony I’d take certain parts of your comment, but the rest I don’t agree with. Not sure why you quoted Revelation 16-18? Corona may result in 666 when simple arithmetic is applied, however, corona is NOT the name of a man, nor the number of his name. Thus it is NOT the mark of the beast as you seek to insinuate. What do you mean by “Science is food for the flesh?” And “Man will figure out a cure,”… a cure to what? As for Christmas, that’s a pagan holiday. Nowhere in scripture are we required to kneel before Christ on Christmas day. Christmas has absolutely nothing to do with Christ.

      • Nope…ancient hebrew symbol for the number six…looked like this…g…our modern lower case g. So if I saw the number 600 as an ancient hebrew, It would look like this…goo. And if I saw three score it would look like this…go. And if I saw, and six, I might see this, /g. Six hundred, three score and six might look like this…goog/g.
        It’s said at the end times that knowledge will increase…google. It’s said that all will become one language… google translate. None may buy not sell…google invented the r.f.i.d. chip that goes in your hand, to buy and sell. It’s said that people will become lovers of themselves…selfies. And it is said that I be the number of a man. Google gets its name from the highest number man has given a name to, a googol. Ten to the tenth power. The number a man.

      • I believe it makes sense that it could be the mark. For decades the vaccine industry has been publishing dishonest studies and withholding important information regarding the safety and efficacy of vaccines. Not to mention, they are certainly a conflict of interest. The cdc owns patents to the latest vaccines and they make billions of dollars off of them. The very people deciding on whether we “need” the vaccine are the ones profiting. We now have a vaccine schedule of 72 shots (including boosters) before many even hit puberty. 72. And again, the ones recomending this are the ones making the money for them off our taxes. Meanwhile, child hood diseases like autism, cancer, autoimmune diseases etc have skyrocketed at a consistent rate with the increase in vaccines. The cdc is a big business. They run like a business hellbent on telling you they are the trusted source and they are right. They vilify good and honest scientists telling the truth. One of those scientists- Judy mikovits, tried to expose the actual evidence that many vaccines (that use animal and other tissue for development ) were contaminating is with animal virus’s. Animal virus’s .. mRNA .. they new thing test would come back with all these positives. But also take a look at the fact that the flu basically disappeared. There are so many reasons they can create an illusion of a pandemic with this.

        I am a nurse, and I can tell you, this is not a pandemic. People are dying from things they already died from especially unhealthy people. They blame this positive test on deaths without proof that the virus was even causing the symptoms. Masks are also a great reservoir for bacteria and should not be worn for long periods of time without changing or watching. It doesn’t take a whole day for harmful bacteria and parasites to accumulate thanks to the masks. I’m for them in hospital setting but that’s it.

        Not to mention, the total deaths this year are no more than the previous several years, which is usually a huge indicator of a pandemic if it’s significantly higher, but last I checked, the total death toll was still less.

        After seeing this blatant corruption and manipulation, I couldn’t imagine a more manipulative source than Satan.

        The reason I think the vaccine is the mark is because it is so obvious that there is no pandemic, yet many have decided to trust so faithfully and blindly in the CDC that they won’t consider what I’m trying to share with them about many vaccines even possible. They say my sources are invalid, even while thousands of educated doctors are trying to get this out there, too. People have been so brainwashed by the news they won’t consider it possible.
        People getting this vaccine are trusting in something or someone other than Jesus to save them, so much so they don’t even see how corrupt those recommending it are. They are so Loyal and faithful they won’t consider my words. I am uneasy that many “christians” are falling for it and I never really knew if that was possible, but if you think about it, it shows where your faith truly lies and what you’re afraid of.

        I think it’s very possible this could be the mark. It’s made using animal tissue (makes sense considering it’s a mark of a “beast”) and the people supporting it want a centralized government and to create all these ways to track that people are vaccinated. The people putting out this vaccine are criminals and liars, and quite frankly are working for satans benefit regardless of whether this is the mark or not.

        Best wishes, don’t get the vaccine whether it is the mark or not, it is a huge fraud. Ivermectin and hydroxychloraqhine are legitimate, effective and safe treatments. But they are not patented, and the people in charge of our healthcare recommendations won’t let millions off of them.

        • I think that covid is the beginning. I dont know for sure that the vaccin for covid is the mark. I think it’s a New systeem that’s been ivented. It’s free for anyone to see if you look on a patent finder. WO2020060606

      • it all ends like it begun: worship(the Lord)
        or false worship (someone else = satan)

        mark of the beast (earthly ruler, cesar, 1:1 translation of a Name of the devil from german: the bodily one (der Leibhaftige)) = buy or sell = tangible too,(every mindset, deed, word has spiritual effect).
        God is spirit = mark of the lamb = spiritual

      • I agree with you the Bible says the Mark of the beast will be ink on the forehead or hand. ( for buying or selling) My Guide to my Holy Land tour says that’s why tattoo’s are more prevalent ( in the “end times”) It will be easier to take the mark being so comfortable with all the tattoo’s.

      • Governor completely will be placed in chains as well as his brothers. These chains will subdue his heart his flesh his thoughts. The chains will contain all of the sorrows he brought upon new York. The chsin will trigger te lake of fire in his heart his plan to vaccinate minorities addicts the poor will cause him more regret and hell that he could ever imagine everything covid will trigger hell any directives orders he thinks of forcing employees of the state city local government gov funded programs to take vaccines will trigger hell all nys health officials gov officials national guard ny sherrif state troopers will all be affected as well. Further lock downs using poor people as guinea pigs will trigger hell I will place a seal on this judgment hereby cast the throne of gov ny into full judgment

      • Those who came up with the big idea bot to allow anyone e who dis not take a covid test to times Square will be permanently yoked in the lake of fire yoke trumping this for all future events just thinking about it will trigger the lake of fire all governors mayors health officials presidents all govermrnt officials

      • Except that Revelations states that you will be unable to by or sell without this mark. So if it is only a condition of the heart and soul and not an actual mark then people could just fake it. So it IS an actual mark.

        • @Julie Rubin Well said! Very well said! I mean people are going to be scanned on the forehead and right hand (just like they are currently being scanned with the infrared temperature gun at shop entrances). How then will the beast system scan for the condition of the heart & soul on one’s forehead or right hand? Doesn’t make sense.

          • Well, if you have the vaccine in you then it would come up on the radar. Also I read is that what these industries giving the shots out don’t tell you is it after you complete the series you will have to get the chip or the label. It’s very real. They just aren’t revealing all the facts at once. Why not just yet the tattoo on your own body? Why get a shot, I don’t get it. I could put the mark on myself very easily.

          • @The Beast That sounds scary! I’ve always suspected that there must be something with this vaccination. they won’t just roll it out without a purpose for it. There’s most probably a sinister agenda behind it. I’m not taking it either. I don’t even wear a mask, never had, and never will!

      • Put ephesians 6.2 w Father and Mother… as Eloah and El Shaddai.
        Proverbs deeded to search for Her.. also entitled: El Shaddai¡

        Truth of within seconds coming to Life,
        In the name of Jesus.

        This is how to overcome with Faith, Obedience, True Worship:
        The Mark kills, puts to death All people.. all
        Cuz , during The gGenerarion of Revelations come true:
        All will be reigned by God’s s Phrophecy.
        Whether you know it or not..
        Tevelation 12, the baby being born is true.
        REV 11 is a 1 male 2 female prophet Jesus, annointed like olive oil and lit lampstands..
        The Stars of the church.

        Like Sodom, the chirch peoples’ doctrine states they will marry Jesus. Thats false
        ..
        That is,
        what they think and what they do, is made up by man 666

        U dont wisen enough if doing is not a medical fact… u pulsating god, supplicating is a medical fact. Buddy.

        Read rev 12… happy birthday to the generation Gods poignant to.

        The lamb of 13 caused it, alone, by simply telling the Truth of interpretation.
        The lamb is given, depicted with two horns. Two Horns?
        Thats an exaltation from God!
        King David: let the horns of the Righteous be Lifted!
        Oj Glory, the lamb of Rev 13 is not an anti-christ, its a lamb and lion, king of the King Jesus.
        There is no rapture, cuz rev 12:11 says u die.
        The church is not the Bride of Christ.. kidding, thats perverse, like sodom… jesus testimony..
        Egypt means rich and think they have it figured as being the Elect

        The Elect is wrong, jist like a deliverance of Moses, Noah, Elijah. Now Jesus delivers in Rev 12… the Woman in rev 12 stands on Creation which is attributed to El Shaddai..
        Mother Mary, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Fatima… is the prescence of Mary, blessed among women…

        Why Mother Mary? Cuz if one looks upon the face of god, ome shall surely, most probably, die.

        Buddy, rev 12 reveals a motif montage of the Her in Proverbs.

        Covid 19 is Her Wrath of Fornication. So we are past the appearance of the two horned lamb… whom God depicted as a man, a king, a lion, a lamb..

        Not an anti-christ.

        Jesus said when the time is the Fathers time, you will understand.. umderstand by being a servant of God.

        So killing.. a place where everything has died..
        Except Elijah, etc.
        God does the killing and if you are alive, you shall not be hurt,
        Just God will flip your lid with the Truth, like Jesus does and leaves doors open…

        Is that a sin? have i lied?

        A 1,000 years begins and ends being called the First Ressurection…
        A 1,000 years passes before Jesus returns with His Bride

        The Bride was given a white garment.

        A wedding dress a bride chooses. Given a white garment is a death shroud.
        So, the bride is a girl, who dies
        And Humanity ends.

        The Lamb of Rev 13 is NO
        Doomsdayer person of Anti Christ… quite the opposite.

        Flips your lid, high on to God.

        Thank You Jesus.

        Read revelations and be blessed.
        Mis read Revelations, spread the misread all around the world tv evangilizing…
        Whoa… like Jesus said itd be
        .. mustard seed spread everywhere in Gods Garden.

        Oh, the satanic force is the church thinking and doing,
        666,
        1)Have faith of mistard seed
        Solution: Faith in Jesus
        2) Rapture is “caught up”
        Solution: be lifted, sacrifice the birth to God of the GenerAtion
        3) the Church is the Bride
        Solution: jesus loved the flesh so much to come to us, be born of sinless flesh, He will marry a girl
        4) the rev lambs prescence is not a doomsday anti christ,
        Solution: lamb, lion, king, lifted to god w words of King David as jesus wove the lambs depiction verifiable

        By The Holy Bible

        Where one capitalized
        Eph 6.2 correctively,
        Theu the authority given thei Kesus: check the doctirine.

        Google it..

        $80 billion of church.. Egyptians.
        Sodom.. raptured to be marrying Jesus..

        Thats Wise becoming Fools..
        Because Gods ways are higher than mans..

        What are Gods Ways in a Deliverance…
        Given Male=1, female=2;
        Where 1+2= a baby=3..

        A calculation.

        Fools even satan, God does.

        • @Randy If you think @Mothershoe’s comment is “religious farytails” you are gravely mistaken! As you will soon find out. Hopefully it won’t be too late by then.

          EDIT: It’s “fairytales” by the way.

      • I agree with you. I think it is very reckless for a pastor to openly be so 100% on this. The seal of the lamb is not physical- only God knows our hearts. The Mark will be physical. They say after getting two doses you will have a vaccine passport. It will be needed if you plan on attending concerts – football games. And eventually needed to go get groceries and food. This passport can easily get lost or stolen. The 3rd phase is to get a invisible tattoo of the passport. Only seen in special light. This vaccine is being done in phases. All who want to go get basic essentials will need to show proof of vaccine passport. This article breaks my heart that someone can tell people confidently it has nothing to do with the Mark of the beast. Is this pastor working under a 5031c. If so he is in the same group yoked together with planned parenthood. The government controls them

      • I agree the Mark will be a tangible problem. Right now as we speak China as well as Russia or planning to destroy the dollar and take over the world economy by bullying which leads me to believe that this moment either XI or Putin could be the Antichrist yet to come. And unfortunately I also believe we are Babylon the great here in America. And will have to be destroyed before they can take over the world, or the world monetary system.in fact I’m a little concerned that we might be the only thing standing in the way right now. It’s obvious at this point no one else could stand up against either one of those two leaders. May our Lord Jesus Christ return quickly!

      • The Vaccine will become the mark of the beast. Pastor JD Farag did a sermon called decision time. Watch it. He includes links to everything he speaks about so you can see for yourself.

      • The mark of the beast is already present on each person when born in the flesh, only conquered when giving of our self as written, daily and minute by minute. Take more time in reading the Letter Genesis chapter 2 and then 3, standing before the mirror as we were Created, then remembering only we will be given later as a gift the new perfect body and then the healthy body forever. It is when given the chance to not take the mark of the beast that those who have not yet been truly saved in our second chance through His Son, that they still do.

      • I’m not a genius or extremely smart book worm. I know that “all” knowledge and understanding does begin with Christ and his Spirit dwelling in us. As James 1:5 states, “if anyone lacks wisdom let him ask the father” God graciously gives us just that. Knowledge and Wisdom.
        With, regards to Covid-19 I pair all the trials our world is undergoing and weigh this situation with the Bible as a filter. As Jesus stated, my people perish from lack of knowledge. Cancel culture, pushes this agenda. Socialism, which is really communism has disguised itself with a Corporation called “BLM”. “Black Lives Matter” which was born from George S. A man who even though is Hungarian jew decent, is purely not on Christianities side.
        All “High tech” firms are on a goal to “Tag” humanity and discard conservative views which reside with elderly individuals. Elderly people, even though are feeble bodied, have a TON of wisdom. (Those with good functioning minds)
        The Bible says that those who have the mark “cannot” ever be saved. It’s a threshold that yes, will be crossed. As scary as this gets, we are not there yet.
        The seal Christians have is his spirit. The Holy Spirit. The seal unbelievers “will recieve” will be Satan’s Mark in their hand “Or” forehead. A digital chip.
        The Holy Spirit is on a frequency level that communes with believers from the Natural bodily composite untouched by science. However, the frequency for the “Chip” needs to be programmed and prepared with a vaccine.
        So many electronic frequencies flying around right now and we just introduced the 5g network. In Jesus’s Era, how many electrons were flyin around in the atmosphere?
        Incredibly Jesus’s frequency is mighty at this time.
        The various in the Bible, but it is NOT the Mark of the beast. It’s preparation and the mask is also an obedience test.
        1. Get rid of history
        2. Get rid of Christianity, born againers and older wise people. (Rest home victims)
        3. Feed fear into society via news to gain control.
        4. Test a cure on a third world country. (Africa)
        5. After a lengthy tenure introduce the solution to a hungry world that can’t take the shut down anymore.
        6. Start injections 💉
        7. A few years later after Christianity has no say, and commerce needs to run introduce the chip.

        This stuff “IS” in the Bible.

    • Your right, it could easily be something tangible. I’m already experiencing something like it at work. Every day I go into work at Walmart I get my forehead scanned by a thermometer gun now, to see if I have a fever. Then I have to give my employee ID number. I just thought about it recently but it’s starting to creep me out with how close it is to the genuine article. They’re already doing it. They might as well stick a barcode on my forehead like some scary dystopian novel. I’m going to ask them if they can scan a different part of my body instead of my forehead or right hand before I start working, I want to test this because I’m getting bad feelings about this.

      • There is one article with video of a company requiring the implant of a microchip to work there! It shows the actual implant and ask one female why she refused at 1st and she said well they explained and said it is a benefit as we can get free machine snacks and putting meals ! Not a real reason! They showed employees putting their implant wrist up to a machine and getting food! That is exactly what the Bible s speaking about as having to get it for food and to buy as it will become the way of purchasing and money will not exist! We will be gone before this is in whole in the world with the one world order but it will be a tracking system and if God does not send zJesus back for the Church before it is total I will refuse it as the Lord will provide !

        • He is giving us ample warning….we NEED to flee the cities!!! If we have land out in the country…..well we will be more privatized and can farm something big going on and God IS giving us warning to flee…..

          • not yet but yeah maybe soon but I do think antichrist has been revealed not a man but as man mankind that is. it fits better than thinking Trump is or Obama was or THe pope or anyother man mankind fits!

          • I really agree with you, we need to depend on the land , God also commanded us to depend on farming because that the reason He created land,

          • Yes you must immediately flee the city. Go build a bunker underground, and go crawl in there. Live in complete darkness, nibbling on granola bars and drinking warm bottled water. That is truly the way to make god happy. Under no circumstances must you eat seafood. That is forbidden. And make sure all of your clothing is made of the same fabrics, mixing fabrics is a quick ticket to hell.

          • But how to do that when the economy is shut down and one can’t work and money? I think the same thing. But we’re all stuck and we’re powerless without….money.

          • @The beast, As much as I like the idea of getting out the city, I still believe that God needs us right in the heart of the battle, because the Gospel needs to preached. Thus if we get out the Word won’t be spread. I say let’s wait on the Holy Ghost to lead us and guide us in this regard.

        • Did you read the entire article? How does a chip to work with, even to buy things, relate to the beast? That is not worship of the beast, so, not a mark of the beast.

          • worship also means to obey. If it’s sanctioned out to people that through either govt regulation or the private sector won’t allow one in the door unless they can prove through a cell phone which has microchips, they have the vaccine or been tested yes a very plausible mark of the beast I’d say.
            Worship means obey or can mean obey.
            Obey the law, obey man’s decrees, etc…OR obey worship god!
            whether you get it or not doesn’t matter but once explained like that if your honest it’s not that far fetched. and maybe just the truth too…

          • Why is the untested vaccine being forced in us and I might add, ushered trough quickly? Why are they reducing benefits and bosses able to sack you if you refuse to receive the vaccine? Christians then wouldn’t be able to buy or sell!!! Everyone knows that Revelation is about Jesus Christ’s return in victory but it also shows the unleashing of punishment.
            I personally will not have the vaccine just as I will not receive the flu jab.
            Be ready and waiting for the return of the king of kings and Lord of lords. God bless you all

        • csaaphill, I feel hoping that we won’t be here when the mark of the beast is introduced comes from a place of fear. Let us rather trust in the Lord than look forward to death. Jesus has encouraged us not to be troubled during these times as He has defeated death. Some of us will have to be killed for refusing to take the mark of the beast, or the number of his name, or refusing to worship the image of the beast. That is a biblical fact. Thus let’s be ready instead of being afraid brothers and sisters.

          • So let’s your still a kid and your mom is the one that makes the decisions. How will I avoid the vaccine?

          • i never said anything about fear. But wearing masks shows god you fear.
            @gracie run to the hills or mountians. or have a husband or wife know how to survive in the woods, or friend.
            I am more and more seeing no mask no service meaning you can’t buy or seel without it. I’ve personally been tld I couldn’t sell without it so allowed someone who doesn’t believe in it like i do wear it and sell for us.
            My soul, or consiousnous, and having a immortal body when Jesus does come back is worth a bit of inconveniounce for me even if those around me don’t get it and turn me in or wont come with me when time comes. Even death so yeah I don’t fear as it’s been said or said I said but it is a fearful time to be living now.
            Now that Biden won you can rest assured dark and terrible times are coming and our bill of rights is no more. For in only but the most benign reasons will the courst still side with us now with this coronavirus.
            Kamala is a Hindu and her god is Kali the destroyer she will more than likely be the true power even if Biden is not killed in office.
            Or let say the courts uphold Trumps challenges and they over turn Biden’s win, will the left like that? NO!
            Pfizer and Moderna do seem to be the two companies that will have this ungodly thing and both do us mRNA one uses Luciferin which is Moderna’s Version and Pfizer useses some other technology, but both rely heavily on nanotechnology, and Pfizer’s uses something that from the sounds of it that I’ve looked at on their website that sounds or looks like forced evolution and chrystiline technology or someting. Again no scientist, so don’t understand all I read but htey can’t prove in the lab evolution so they have to force it and with this vaccine will allow them to do just that.
            ignore the scoffers they know nothing. their immortlity that is promised is not worth it to them so…
            I care less that a mask is not on the forehead, for nothing says that has to be a hard and fast rule, but what you think is and what you do is in your hands is so… Now I am seeing these shields. OK better for they offer better airflow, but they are wore on the forehead so…?
            I plan on not taking the vaccine no matter what hardships come sanctions etc…

      • So let’s your still a kid and your mom is the one that makes the decisions. How will I avoid the vaccine?

          • I will gladly get the vaccine to save my life and the !ives of others I love.
            I truly think God wants us to be healthy and avoid sickness suffering and needless death?

          • Hello. I urge you to buy the book I’ll leave the link to (On Amazon); or at LEAST read all of the snippets from the book that Amazon allows you to. The author includes a LEGAL form in his book that can be printed out and handed to any doctor who tells a person that either they or their children MUST get vaccinated. it’s a LIE. We or our children do NOT ‘have to be’ vaccinated; and I would not WILLINGLY receive ANY vaccine.
            Vaccines have NOT eradicated diseases as we have been TOLD they have. There are some books touting vaccines as being totally safe AND necessary; but there are DOZENS of books stating….WITH documented PROOF…that they are NEITHER. The statistics for the INCREASE of deaths and illnesses DIRECTLY related to vaccines has increased exponentially alongside the use of them. If you decide to be vaccinated or to have your child(ren) vaccinated; then please; at LEAST do so AFTER having read ALL of the literature that states their dangers.
            Here is the link:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1413454402/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

          • I’ll take my chances of survival by NOT TAKING a vaccine of any kind. With a 99. plus percentage of survival if we catch the virus …I believe is MUCH SAFER than taking a vaccine that should have been years in the making and testing but has been pushed through in MONTHS! Because of this, the companies making these vaccines are NOT LIABLE if someone dies or has complications from them. Higher risk of something happening with an unproperly untested vaccine than catching a virus that most people beat. All I ask is the choice to do it the way my body wants and I will give you that choice as well. You want to be the testing ground for this vaccine…go for it. I will support you 100% but ask for the same in return.

          • Get the vaccine you are a lunatic as anything Bill Gates is attached to is evil-sinister and down right diabolical. Go ahead, get the vaccine and you will either die, get deathly ill and have your DNA altered for life as Bill Gates authored the no liability to Vaccine manufacturers if you get sick, die or have an adverse reaction to the vaccine. You are a complete idiot and a fool for trusting the Govt who is part of Bill Gates, George Soros, Ted Turner, The Rockefeller’s, Rothschild’s and the Bilderberg’s NWO. The Vaccine is a killer and they are moving way to fast without at least a two year testing and study to make sure it is safe. Very few people are getting he virus without a Vaccine so what makes you think the vaccine will prevent you from getting the virus.

        • The patents clearly evidentally show that the vaccine is the mark satan, the mark of the beast. Do not get it. Say NO. The virus is all a hoax. The masks are a precursor to the mark of the beast satan’s rfid chip.

        • So lets as in me or something? or is that a reply to someone with that handle or the above comment of let us look forward to death comment?
          I’m 54 so no not correct as to the others age who knows.
          I look forward to eternal life not death, but if what I see coming and it’s open like scripture says and not sublte like I do see then someong holding a gun to my head telling me to give up Christ or he shoots I would tell him to pound sand. i dont fear the virus and would rather catch it and be done with it recover or die…
          So in only the least ways I have to in-order to get treatment for cancer but even then I balk about having to wear one I don’t in public nor in the stores, but I see that’s faslty becoming less and less allowed so if I can’t buy or sell without the I make friends of the mamon. that’s also one way of avoiding it the vaccine etc…

      • Follow your gut. You got that right. We are being trained as “sheeple” so we can go about our days.

      • @Edward Pettinger Yes, they are psychologically conditioning the masses to the coming mark of the beast. Hence the forehead scanning with an infrared temperature gun. That thing is not even a “thermometer” gun, it doesn’t use mercury. It uses infrared which is said to be dangerous for the pineal gland. And yes, they can scan another part of your body… the neck. But still, you agreeing to be scanned is all they want to see. To them it’s indicative enough that you most likely will take the mark of the beast.

        • Luvuyo has the possibility ever crossed your mind that the reason they are taking your temperature and are requiring you to wear a mask is because we are in the middle of a medical crisis called a Pandemic, all would that just be asking to much of you. This idea that it has something to do with the MOTB is not only ludicrous but quite frankly Laughable.

      • The actual “Mark _of_the_Beast ,is a digital tattoo emblem of a thirteen pointed ☀ sun, the size of a nickle with a ✋ hand insignia in the center of the image. It goes on the forehead or the right ✋ hand. , but you can also take the Antichrist name or His number “666_ ..of course you cannot be tricked into taking any of these marks… No, you would have to ” Deny ” Jesus first! So, remember not to take any such mark and always follow the leadership of the Holy Spirit !

      • stop shopping at Walmart its a product of communist china and members of the world economic forum all for Satan woo hoo good times to hell with walmart

    • While Billy Bob’s undercover vaccine is not the mark of the beast as it were, this planned-demic (and all of the advances in electronics/technology) is the SET-UP for the new world order and ITS expected mass compliance of the population. It is DEFINITELY paving the way for the beast and false prophet. The money that the elite globalists and their posse have invested is ASTRONOMICAL. Do you really believe that all this 5G and mega satellite installation is for you to see videos faster???? Please wake up and smell…the…coffee. Grow up in Christ so you can have your senses exercised to discern both good and evil (Hebrews 5:11-14).

      • Where is the proof that anyone spent any money on the pandemic? Where is the proof it was man-made? Why do you believe 5G is involved in this, every phone carrier has their own versions that do not even contain the same technology inside….
        Who is controlling this new world order?
        Where is this coffee, I can’t smell any besides my own.
        But really, please spell out your details and conclusions. Otherwise you lack credibility. I am not a left thinker, but they are very articulate of their thoughts and cute sources.

        • I refuse to get a mark on my head or forehead .whether it be a 666 scare or not. Government is trying to take control and I am not going to be traced down and trapped by them. It’s cruel and unbelievable the lengths Government will go to take away people’s rights..Good luck getting me to submit!!

          • Thank you Robert you’re absolutely right.
            It’s a shame he left that part out of his long-winded pieces of the Bible that he wants us to see without giving us all the facts.
            I would suggest to anyone please watch the video who is Bill Gates you will need to watch all of it to answer any question you may have regarding the virus and its ties to the Holy Bible. https://www.corbettreport.com/gates/

            This is a long video but at the end you will see its well worth your time to make your own decisions.

          • But what do you think about getting the 2nd stimulus check , do you think they will tell us either get this vaccine or you won’t get your stimulus money ?

        • sir you might be part of theinfiltrateed church gov agent.A virus has no power to infect a person since are solvents and can not NOT infect airborne.Solvents have no life by consequence needs animal tissue to drop the toxicity.only via injection you can enter into the blood stream.that’s why you can not catch a virus other than natural; detoxification of the cells which only happens in each individual according to their habits.If you had a detox of your cells you do not need another so how every person is getting a detox all at the same time?impossible.only vioa an injection is a plandemic.get science facts not blind faith from the media or scientism

        • No offence but you sound unwise and like a fleshy Christian. Any discerning believer can see the obvious traps and can tell the 5G poles are basically gonna turn people into walking satellites prone to being tracked down if they violate any terms and conditions regarding Bill Gates. The aim is to lower the population by 2030. And if you believe Christians are gonna be raptured before the great suffering hits think again. We must all go through it THEN just before the 7th trumpet is blown the true believers will be raptured.

          • Incorrect. Christians are not going through tribulation or appointed unto God’s wrath.
            We ARE looking forward to be Raptured safely by Jesus Christ.
            We are NOT looking for the Antichrist, nor looking forward to the plagues coming upon the ungodly.
            That is our blessed hope!
            You would have us look forward to punishment?!!! What kind of Rapture is that?!!!!
            God has provided a provision as He did with Noah and the Ark.
            Our Ark is Jesus Christ!
            Adrian, -you would have us hunker down & be preppers. God never tells us to do that in end times.
            We are to be joyful, expectant and witnessing as never before!

          • @James Knox. I too used to believe in ‘the Rapture’, until I was shown the truth. I URGE you to read all of the words on these sites:http://www.sound-doctrine.net/Rapture.html

            https://www.ucg.org/world-news-and-prophecy/the-rapture-a-popular-but-false-doctrine

            https://www.unlearnthelies.com/is-the-rapture-biblical.html
            The ‘wrath’ that you mention; which some people believe is ‘the tribulation’ is not; ‘the wrath’ the Bible speaks of is God’s eternal Judgement. We know from Revelation that MANY Christians will be beheaded for holding fast to The Faith until THE END. I don’t know if you believe that being beheaded qualifies for Tribulation; but I’d guess that most people do; and THAT will be the CULMINATION of Tribulation; there will ALSO be MANY Christians who will be TORTURED for The Faith. Sounds pretty much like Tribulations to me; but of course that is different than what the world will experience. God PUT US HERE PRECISELY TO PREACH TO EVERYONE WHO IS NOT SAVED BEFORE THE VERY END; He is NOT whisking us away from trouble. He is setting us smack-dab in the center of it. Please do not read any ‘attitude’ in my words; it’s always hard to just read something someone writes. We inevitably put our OWN ‘spin’; our own ‘attitudes’ on what is written. I mean no harm; only good. God bless.
            Oh and I also must address your sentences—“Adrian, -you would have us hunker down & be preppers. God never tells us to do that in end times.” I don’t agree; God ALWAYS expects His children to be prepared; MOSTLY spiritually of course; but ALSO naturally; but NOT WITH FEAR; that is the difference between the world and Christians; the world operates in fear…we see it greatly magnified now…but Christians should be peacefully prepared. God uses MEANS; and IF we have no food; either God will miraculously provide OR we will die. But that does not ever mean that WE should not be prepared; that is utter foolishness. We can have all the faith in the world; but God STILL uses means; which translates into US taking care of OURSELVES as much as we are ABLE to; THEN we leave what we CAN’T do to God.

          • Can’t they trace us already through cell phones? I know that not everyone has one so this vaccine thing could be their solution but not everyone will get one. So I’m thinking it’s just a precursor to the future mark because they will have to make buying and selling the main tool. Some can survive off the land better than others however lots of land us being owned by the government and illegal to go to? I’m not sure how long I could go without food or soap etc but it will surely be a time of fasting and praying for strength and guidance that I don’t do now as my needs are met. Will keep asking God for guidance because much mixed views because of spiritual growth. Love you keep close to Christ. Also God says we’re sealed by his Spirit until the day of redemption do trusting that nothing can unseal or seperate from God?

        • @ JK – Scientists (virologists) have said that in its natural form, coronavirus does not cross over from animals to humans. It must be manipulated in a lab in order to do so. Therefore, COVID-19 MUST have been manipulated in a lab to have spread in the human population as it has, because it COULD NOT do so in its natural form. Secondly, Dr. Fauci has ties to the Wuhan lab (I read an article confirming exactly what those ties are), and also has ties to the U.N. and the WHO, which has praised the Communist leader of China for his “handling” of COVID-19 in China. Bill Gates, George Soros, and the female doctor in the CDC also have ties to the U.N. and WHO. And to think they COULDN’T have already spent massive amounts of money on development of this vaccine is really naive. What proof would anyone need in order to believe that? Common sense tells a person that development of vaccines is very costly.

        • This article discredits the correlation between “mark of the beast” and “Covid 19 vaccine” with two reasoning.

          1. The mark of the beast is not physical.

          2. The “motb” is correlated to the worship of the beast.

          Why You should look at this from a different perspective.

          The basis of America’s most popular religion(s) is there is only one God, The Most Merciful, Most Compassionate, worship him. With that being said, there is currently a divide in human opinion on whether we should be injecting this vaccine or any other for that matter. To argue which side “God” is on is impossible to say. But there is an obvious split in “worship”. Worship can mean anything, you don’t have to be encircled in candles to worship. Now on to what I think of this article.

          1. The writer of this piece has tried to define the Word of God by saying “the motb is by no means a medical procedure, most likely it’s not even physical” Who is any man trying to define the meaning of God? How can you confidently and boldly state the “meaning” of Gods words with absolute certainty? If you believe God speaks only in literal terms here is an example. “They forgot God, and God forgot them” If you were to take that literally, that would make God forgetful and more importantly imperfect. It is important we find our own meaning in God’s words for he gave us a mind so We can think for ourselves.

          2. The beast does not have to be a red man with sharp piercing horns. The beast is a threat to humanity. As for now we don’t know for absolute certainty that these hastily cultivated vaccines are not a threat. Especially when ones that have been developed over the past 10 years are still causing physical damage today in 2020. I’m no one to say who sides with the Devil and who sides with God. But God does say those who worship money will never have enough, whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income. We must now look at the front runners developing these miracle cures. The same ones who have never, and will never put anything of that sort into their own children. This causes me and I’m sure many like me to question. Not instantly worship but question, as we should question everything.

          Ultimately I urge you to look at this from your own perspective, not to resist, but simply question Truly what is happening. God gave you a mind so you can think. You may side with either side because in the end all we can do is act based on our processing. Who am I or anyone else to say which side you should choose, I can only choose for me.

          • Yes! and take 2020 ÷ by 666 = 30330

            This is the polls for Biden/Harris text polls number.

            And Google antifa.com

            Devils. Keep awake. America. Biden is all in on it 👿

        • Why is bill gates behind patenting the “vaccine” and why are big tech giants in on it? OBVIOUSLY FOR SINISTER DEMONIC AGENDA21. THERE’s YOUR EVIDENCE.

        • Lock step out out buy the Rockefeller foundation in 2010.put out a booklet on dealing with philanthropys role in the coming world is a play book for how the pandemics set to play out.along with the fack the world health org.ownes 18 patients on covid viruses as of 2012.and the bill and Malinda gates foundation has received a European patent on a vaccine for corona virus s or how about fuchii being a board member of the b&m gates foun.or him saying in 2017 that before me trump’s term was over we would see a pandemic. Now there going to weed extremists out of the military will they be liberal and conservative extremist which how would you know unless you voilate there first,fourth and fifth amendment rights.And now john kerry and his gang of elitist are going to have the Great Reset. Where the ultra rich are going to redistribute the wealth of the world not there’s but yours and mine of course Please look up every thing I’ve spoken of I believe it to all be factual

      • So let’s your still a kid and your mom is the one that makes the decisions. How will I avoid the vaccine?

        • Pray pray pray grace. Talk to your parents about your concerns. God knows your heart.

        • Don’t Take it! Simple as that! you’re going to starve to death if you do not prepare now. Buy food and water and have a plan. Sheesh. what is wrong with you people?

    • As a Christian, yes get the House bill 6666 microchipped Covid vaccine when it comes out. That way you can buy, sell, travel and have your “certificate of vaccination” ID-19 or Covid!
      Sarcasm of course. Be in prayer. Listen to the Holy Spirit. Obey Matthew 28:19-20 so that you know what to obey as it says “teach them to obey ALL I’ve commanded.” Be very skeptical of Christians who are so openly dismissive of end time seasons and signs. The wheat and tares will eventually be sickled but not yet. Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!!!! John 12:25.

        • mary bernstein NO. The elect CANNOT be deceived, as scripture shows.

          “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, ‘if it were possible’, they shall deceive the very elect”. Matthew 24:24

          • READ YOUR HOLY BIBLE THOROUGHLY.
            “Matthew 24:24
            24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
            THOSE LAST THREE WORDS ARE EXACTLY THAT “THE VERY ELECT”.

          • IT SAYS “THEY SHALL DECEIVE”. READ YOUR BIBLE PROPERLY. SHALL MEANS TO DO SO. SHALL MEANS YES IT WILL HAPPEN. EG. I SHALL MEANS I WILL.

      • The article gives a good historical account of historical events. But hasn’t adequately shed light on the mark of the beast being a “spiritual” mark in my opinion. Instead it left me more confused and with more questions than answers, as I’m trying to wrap my head around this claim. How are we to avoid the “spiritual” mark then, as scripture sternly warns? The follow up article seems to insinuate that this spiritual mark will be some form of worship, but then Revelation 13:15-18 and Revelation 14:9-11 seems to be dealing with the receipt of the mark and the worship thereof as two different issues? In other words, we shall either take the mark, or the number of his name, or worship the beast or his image. Thus if the mark is spiritual why are we given the above-mentioned conditions separately? Shouldn’t we be just warned against the “worshiping” of the beast? I believe the mark of the beast will some form of technology. For I cannot imagine a situation where numerical cases of apostasy/ idol worship were forgiven throughout scripture, but not the coming form of worship? Thus, in my opinion it’s got to be some futuristic technological installation that would link us to the beast system. I don’t believe it to be covid-19 or the vaccine or the RFID chip though. As biblical timing does not support that claim. Instead I believe those are precursors to the coming mark of the beast. The mask and vaccine are most likely to usher us into the NWO.

    • I feel like you need to come to a country like Uganda where corruption has so reached a head that without bribing/corruption or otherwise doing something illegal, you can barely get a business license, or get registered for tax or _not_ get over taxed or sell your wares to the government or get a contract for a building project or a supply project or get work done for you in a government office, or get a policeman to actually listen to your need, or hold someone in a jail cell (i.e. press charges), or file a case with the court of law, or renew your land lease, or get your case seen by a judge, or receive money from abroad, or get your land accurately surveyed, or get services to your site or.. hopefully you can see a trend. If this does not signify the mark of the beast required to sell or buy land, I don’t know what does.

      If you do not see the trail of evil in the world that shows one’s allegiances to the beast, look at the legacies of colonialism, slavery, economic oppression/economic hit-men, transnational lobby-ism. The beast is busy trying to hide behind seemingly innocuous and commonplace economic practices while we go chase him in random humans and viruses and vending machines and microchips.

    • I agree Robert. We won’t wake up one morning and “boom” there it is. It is events that will coalesce and will lead to people being of one “like” mind and will accept the beasts system. People will be conditioned. People will want this mark either by fear, or allegiance. I agree it is spiritual but also physical since it will involve commerce. It will be the false prophet according to Scripture to make people reason to take it. Whatever it may be. I do believe it won’t be by mistake since like someone slipping you a micky. People will be taking it in outright rejection of God since accepting the mark is a sign of worship and allegiance.

      I think as things unfold, Scripture makes it clear what will happen so people at the time will.

          • You’re Wicked and if you don’t repent you will be cast into the lake of fire. I charge you this day to repent of your sins and turn to the only begotten Son of God, Jesus Christ!

          • Are you kidding Vickie?You want to go to hell and burn for eternity? Put your finger in flame how long can you keep it there? You will have all 5 senses in hell. Turn to Christ and be saved.

      • slipping you a mickey? that’s old school. haven’t heard that in a long time. lol.

        • Pope Francis, Bill Gatz and Ilmar Musk are trying to make the vaccine compolsary the virus was man made we can take vaccine if needed but not the chip in our hand the mark of the beast. It is a little scarey to think cashless society how are we going to feed our family but we have to fight the government and refuse this chip. They’ve been microchipping our pets for years it’s all programming . We must have faith and stick together . God bless you all and keep spreading the word.

    • In New Zealand we have mandatory contact tracing.

      Scanning the forehead or scanning the hand is about to be rolled out shortly.
      If you don’t have the RFID chip, you cannot enter stores (buy or sell).

      Don’t be fooled.. COVID 19 is the precursor to tracing of all individual’s movements.
      It’s the best possible way to roll it out and people will believe they are doing a good thing.

    • If the “mark” is not at all something that could be accidentally taken either why would God tell us we need wisdom?
      Neither Christians nor Hollywood could imagine for how the Mark of the Beast would come into play yet somehow this tiny virus has done that: in one fell swoop it has affected both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave. There has been talk about travel certificates, and needing clearance to go back to work -and shopping is certainly restricted. Research ID2020 Gates plan to number and mark us all. He has partnered with credit card companies in favor of demonetization. Already cash is frowned on or banned in many stores as credit card usage surges. If this is not the end -it certainly is a dress rehearsal for what is to come. The system is being set-up. God predicted it -you can change that -but you can witness like never before and encourage other believers as our redemption draws near. To pretend that nothing sinister is going on -is to trust the wolf wearing sheep’s clothing.
      Is Corona a sign? Corona alone is not -even though it can add up to 666 (6 letters +66).
      God is a God of order and He certainly has given us a number to look out for: there is the Microsoft published patent for a “cryptocurrency system using body activity data.” containing this year’s date along with three 6’s ; the proposed HR6666 bill as well as other 666 words: Bio Implant, Digital ID Chip, Mark of Beast, Mondex Chip, Monetary, RFID Body Tag, RFID Scanner, Verishield, Geneticist, Calculation -and the all important “Vaccination”. Let’s not forget Bill’s starting point “computer”.
      Hard to believe each one adds up to 666 but sometimes God has to go overboard to tell us something.
      666 is actually a word in the original Greek. The word is “Chi Xi Stigma”, the first part denoting the number 666 and the last part “stigma” meaning “to stick or prick, a mark incised or punched (for recognition of ownership)”.
      And what’s in a name? The patent holder for an implantable homing device is Dr. Daniel Man or “God will judge” Man.
      Bill Gates = “to draft of a proposed law” “to -close in.”
      (Which is certainly what we are experiencing now)

      • You are on it. at least I ain’t the only one who can see this people are in denial it is sad ..before all covid 19and lockdowns started I really didn’t take religion to seriously more rather than a guide to be moral people too know and practice to be good hearted people.now I seen what has unraveled so plainly and obvious that I seen it so easily.how can the ones that are religious, seriously religious ignore the facts that is slapped right in thier faces still deny what is going on is what we were warned about in all faiths of the world.so no matter what faith you come from if you truly are a person of good intentions and good hearted and believe in what is the same morals that all can agree in about true freedom and not being controlled then all that agrees for that alone should be enough to reject anything that is forced on u against your will is the essence of evil.s stand together and fight back against the tyranny may your God bless you all

        • Hi Patrick,
          Glad that your eyes have been opened to recognize biblical truth!
          This truth came from Jesus Christ so we have to pay attention to all the other
          truths He said such as “No one comes to the Father except through Him” (John 14:6)
          The entire point of Jesus dying on the cross for our sins -is because our “good” intentions are not “good enough”. Close only counts in hand-grenades -a miss is as good as a mile for being perfect in God’s eyes. None of us are -which is why our “good heartedness” is not good enough. Jesus gave us a few options: witness about Him to others; expect to be Raptured or taken out of this coming storm because of our faith in Jesus Christ; reject His teachings and expect a living hell on earth and final judgment at the white throne with all unbelievers. The 1st two are your best options!
          Blessings Patrick,
          James

          • Amen, they have no Biblical wisdom whatsoever who can say its only spiritual. Its always both since we are spiritual people in a physical dimension. IDK what this author is doing besides being in denial and leading people astray–either purposefully or not. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Buy food and have a plan.

          • I hear want you are saying there Steve. Google up Ken Gentry and his series on Revelation. Its a real eye opener

      • “he that has wisdom calculate the number of the beast for it is the number of a man” I would not use the word calculate as the correct translation, because people are picking it up from the wrong angle. I would use the term or word “identify” the beast. 666 is the rotating presidency of the EU. it is the number of a man in office. hence six months, six months, six months. about the year 2007 they blocked these six months terms into three’s called the “TRIO”. this is what john was describing in Patmos. now when the antichrist appears in the EU, he will allow the army to attack the church or believers. he will be allowed to continue for 42 months. during these three and a half years, seven kings will serve in the rotating presidency, each one “six months” seven times six equals forty two months. during johns vision five had served, one is, and there is one more to come, and he will rule for a short space “six months”. check this out with revelation 13, and seventeen.

        • I crack up at how many people are Sticking up for COVID hoax, you already have the Mark of the Beast, that Mark is the Strong Delusion, you also will automatically Hate Trump who was chosen by God.

      • Have you watched the video who is Bill Gates it’s a must-see I think you would really like watching it. I personally feel it ties the virus to the Holy Bible.
        https://www.corbettreport.com/gates/

        Warning…..its long but well worth watching. I feel it also answers another question about the Antichrist.

        • Why do you continue posting this when there are multiple items on that page? At least point to a specific video.

      • What should we do to keep our families safe I live in WA and am on the disability pension so I’m worried that I won’t have a chance and forced to have this mark of the beast. I will pray have faith and fight but must admit I heard of this over 20 year’s ago and can’t believe it’s here this site is very helpful and important I’ve shared with everyone I no God bless us all 🙏❤️🙌💪

    • THE BIBLE. “TODAY, “THE GOD” OF “THE MORAL GOVERNMENT” SAYS PLEASE NO MORE ARGUING BETWEEN EACH OTHER. I LOVE YOU GUYS. THANKS.

    • Thank you so much for clarifying this point. I actually came back to this article a couple of hours after reading it. I just couldn’t wrap my mind around the mark of the beast possibly being a “spiritual” mark. This was just stirring my spirit, prompting me to come back to this article with the exact same scripture you’ve quoted Revelation 13:16-17. I actually took it to verse 18. I don’t think the mark of the beast can be studied in isolation from the other two key factors which carry the same penalty as the mark, should one accept or partake in: receiving the number of his name, and worshipping his image. I can’t seem to phathom how the spiritual mark would accommodate these two aspects of scripture. I believe CV-19 is a massive social experiment meant to usher in the NWO, and conditioning the populace for the coming mark of the beast… well, in the long term. See how we are unable to buy or sell unless we have mask… now substitute the ‘s’ in mask with an ‘r’ and see where we going with this. Someone wrote: mask now and mark later.

    • The author is naive, and so many of you.

      Look into the 060606 Microsoft patent and read into it. You’ll see that it’s an internal, crypto currency. This will take over cash and plastic cards and be a form of an internal currency based on your behavior. You won’t be able to buy food or water without said currency one day.

      The vaccine and microchip will all be linked together with this. The vaccine will have nanotechnology in it as a tracking system, and the microchip (060606 patent) will be charged by what’s called as Luciferase.

      And because “theologians” and such aren’t talking about it should make you aware of why this is it- God hides revelation to the proud, but gives grace and revelation to the humble.

      • Spot on
        There is a global shutdown and economic dismay worldwide and more and more places are going Cashless why so that a mark can be enforced it’s an RFID chip in the hand and people already are chipping themselves wake up it’s been planned and executed by Lucifer and the people in power who serve him. This system is global the rich rule over the poor it’s not different no matter what country you go to. We have global tracking, payments in our phones all linked to the internet where we make accounts to use websites and shop. 5G is being erected globally so they can continue to build the surveillance systems remember Lucifer vowed to be as God. He created a fake world full of fleshy Lusts, he is trying to be omnipresent by having governments use facial recognition technology and global surveillance through Google Earth and Elon Musks Space X.

        The Globalist elites are establishing this New World Order. The devil has them all deceived.

        The world is Fallen. Don’t trust the government. Trust Jesus Christ to reveal the truth to you. Ask Him and he will show you.

        • Why don’t you just stop worrying about this stuff and live your life? Get out in the sunshine, enjoy nature, go to the beach, go to the park. Play a game with your family, watch a good movie. Life is too short for all this worrying about nothing.

        • So should we assume that the writer of this article will take the RFID chip if it becomes mandatory in order to buy or sell? I’ve always believed that the mark was a spiritual mark. However, if any of these conspiracy theories should come to fruition I will not take that chip! I’m trying to sort out truth. So many doctrinal lies out there. One topic at at times is how I’m handling it along with the Lords help through his Word. I will say that I watched a couple of Chinese people purchase with their hands just a few days ago in the news. They just held their hands out and were scanned to purchase in a store. Totally wild and weird to see this. Things are so crazy right now and nothing at this point would surprise me. 2 Thessalonians 2:11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie. God help us to find your truth and to not believe the lie.

          • Watch In The Shadow of Hermes and The Greatest Story Never Told by Dennis Wise for a hint. If tribulation is the worst time of the world and it’s worse than that… Well get ready. Don’t take the vaccine.

        • Hi Katherine Glass! Love to converse with you.Trying to know and come to Christ.

          In Friendship,

          Steve

      • There aren’t any pastors I know talking about any events going on. They are all sell outs to the false prophet, the Pope, in their Ecumenical movement towards their one world religion. The Pope is false prophet along with Protestant pastors who are both gagged by the 501c3 and/or are Jesuit/Masons. John MacCarthur says you can take the Mark of the Beast, and the other way to lose your salvation, blaspheming the Holy Spirit, is what Billy Graham did multiple times, saying you don’t have to know Jesus to be saved. So we have the most popular “Evangelicals” leading their flocks off cliffs. Why would the guy that wrote this, or other “leading” pastors have any wisdom to give.

        God pour out His Holy Spirit in End Times to “nobodys” like myself. The Vaccine is the Mark of the Beast. It usurps the blood of Jesus, by literally being placed inside our bloodstream, causing the abomination of desolation in the Temple. Daily sacrifices stop, because those who take it lose their free will. Iron and Clay do not mix. We will have to take the Mark/vaccine in order to buy and sell of course, but really in order to eat.

        The two witnesses in End Times are both the Old and New Testament, and those who preach it are Holy Spirit filled Christians who didn’t take the Mark, and are left lying in the streets for all to see.

        My dream 8 years ago; I saw my 4 kids in line at our “church”, with church leaders and FEMA folks sitting and standing along tables with computers and doctors with needles. There was cookies and hot chocolate, cut sandwiches at the end of the line. My kids were hungry, I was begging for them to get out of line. The church leaders kept pointing to a chalk board with Romans 13.

        I wrote a book about End Times and this last “Beast System”. ScriptedTreason.com free download

      • Exactly! Now one can not buy or sell without The Mask! And Prince Charles is the prime mover behind the great Global reset. Its shocking to see Christians stumble over themselves trying to deny the obvious

    • Maybe the beast is the Coronavirus, created by man in a lab and the mark of said beast is having to wear a mask on your head and gloves and sanitizers on your hand. 666? Trying to figure that one out.

    • Thank you Robert you’re absolutely right.
      It’s a shame he left that part out of his long-winded pieces of the Bible that he wants us to see without giving us all the facts.
      I would suggest to anyone please watch the video who is Bill Gates you will need to watch all of it to answer any question you may have regarding the virus and its ties to the Holy Bible. https://www.corbettreport.com/gates/

      This is a long video but at the end you will see its well worth your time to make your own decisions.

    • It is true, this pandemic has made us look at things differently.

    • I’ve read as many posts below as I had time to and my heart breaks. Folks, those of us that accept Gods gift of Salvation through the death, burial and Resurection of his Son Jesus will not be here during the time of the Tribulation which will lead to the implementation of the Mark Of The Beast. We will be taken to Heaven during the Rapture. Following the Rapture the Antichrist and False Prophet will come to power. During this time there will be a physical MOTB needed to survive. Many will not get it and will accept Gods gift of Salvation. They will be executed.

      • No, there is no such thing. Jesus is coming at the Seventh and last trumpet. He said it himself and Paul confirmed it. in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the LAST TRUMP. You are believing some man named Darby’s false interpretation. You will have no one to blame but yourself if you do not prepare yourself and what about your family? Your children will starve. I’m sorry, but He who endures till the end shall be saved. You’re not going see Jesus until the second coming. Every eye will see him. Its not a “secret” rapture, its the DAY of the LORD and men will run and hide from the face of the Lord. 7th trumpet! that means all the previous trumpets must sound before Jesus comes. Hello, McFly! its not rocket science. Just read the Words of Jesus in Matthew 24. Please!

      • I’ve had a bad feeling about this expectation of the Rapture before the Mark of the Beast is enforced. People who believe this will be utterly unprepared. The Last Trump is also confirmed in Revelation, because the 2 witnesses are resurrected just before the last (7th) trump sounds. Since the 2 witnesses are killed by the Beast, and the whole world rejoices in their death, and the 2 witnesses are 2 candlesticks, which are churches, obviously there will be churches persecuted by the beast. Tribulation is what Satan and his marked ones do to the saints before Christ returns. Wrath is what the Christ the Lamb does to Satan and his marked ones after rescuing the living saints and resurrecting the dead ones. Those running to hide from the face of the Lord will be marked with the mark of the Beast, and they’ll be running to hide because they know they persecuted the saints, who are the apple of God’s eye.

    • The mark is spiritual in nature because taking it will signify allegiance to the Beast world system. It will also be tangible. It will be a chip inserted in the right hand or the forehand. If you understand the OT, this is exactly where the devout men of Israel wore the Law, the Commandments…a small box called a phylactery was worn, held by leather bands, on the right hand or around the forehead. The Law was in a small scroll in the box.
      Satan isn’t original. He’s a counterfeiter.
      The chip is already in use much more than you think. It’s not the final chip, but is a precursor employed to condition the lost to receive the final one. No money,no cards. Everything is loaded by computer on to the chip. You pass a chip reader either at the head or hand level to pay for things and it is debited.
      Where I live, you cannot buy or sell unless you are wearing a mask, a muzzle. You can’t buy food or any type of goods. The parallel is all too clear. The world is being warned, but Jesus Christ said they would not listen.
      The computer was brought into existence for exactly this purpose.

    • “It causes all…to be marked” doesn’t imply willing ascent, Matthew. Maybe you should allow scripture to speak on its own behalf.

    • know that this plandemic is for the 1% of this world which is referred to as the wickedness in high places in the bible. They and their partners in crime agenda is to push their VACCINATION with the chip in it… which by the way is considered to be “mark of the beast ” this Plandemic is the start of their New World Order agenda. And it’s so sad that people of this world are sooooo brainwashed to the point that they can’t even see the danger a head of them.

    • I agree the mark is a tangible mark. The vaccine is not the mark but I perceive it as the “alcohol swipe” that is given to prepare the arm for the injection. The vaccine will include some nano tech, that will not only include some tech for identification purposes, but will so-called ‘prepare’ the person to accept whatever is projected on the mind of the person. As such even the very elect my fall

      • E Kruger. I am absolutely stunned that you think the alcohol swab has something to do with the Mark. There is NO such thing as ” The Mark Of The Beast” in the 21st century, there was no such thing in the previous 19 century before that. The prophecy in Revelation 13 was totally fulfilled in the 1st Century along with the 666 Anti Christ. Google up Dr Ken Gentry on You Tube and view his Vid ” The Beast of Revelation IDENTIFIED “

        • So you’ve watched a random video on you tube that fits your viewpoint and that’s your proof that it’s all rubbish?!
          Good luck with Mr Gates vaccine.
          Remember, you had a choice.

        • Thats correct paddle. Also rivalnations.org explains it well. Many people just like their ears tickled. The only thing left is the descent of Jesus Christ to establish His Kingdom here on this earth. The Kingdom is already here as the parable of the mustard seed alludes too. Allegiance to Gods Kingdom is what is required

    • The Coronavirus vaccine will be an RNA vaccine that is capable of changing your DNA, possibly rendering you transhuman. Beware if you are transhuman, then you are not human and not covered by the blood of Jesus who died for all humans. Bill Gates and others are pushing for a digital tattoo that upon scanning will provide your entire vaccination/medical history. They *will* require this vaccine to buy and sell.

    • Understanding the nature of the new vaccines and how they will employ nano-technology that will act upon your DNA (your body’s blueprint ie, Gods design and information (He owns the rights:) agree or not)), might change or tweak your perspective and interpretation a little. The Beast is a system (see Daniel) and like all systems it has components. The high priests and clergy of this Beast system wear white coats and are called scientists and doctors…science is the religion. Beware.
      “As in the days of Noah” What was it like then? What was roaming around? Gen chapter 6 gives some detail. You’re relationship with your Father determines your understanding of His Word. Academics and theologians do not – we each have our own personal walk (halak in the Hebrew). God does not contradict Himself…we’d all be on the same page if our walk was on point. Love the Lord your God with all…ALL, your heart. ALL your soul and ALL your strength and (then you’ll be able to) Love your neighbor (because You get His desire and Love to draw from) as yourself. (Who love(s)d you first?). On this you can hang the whole TANACH.
      Love to you brothers and sisters.

    • I will write more but I can debunk your debunk article of disbelief and cynicism.

      I will explain and demonstrate how it’s not Christians that are misrepresenting themselves or being misrepresented by being suspicious of the vaccines and how they want to track it and how they could correlate it with the mark of the beast rightly so being cautious. I don’t believe they are misrepresenting themselves I believe you are misrepresenting them and just trying to prove that Christians are lunatics. #ProjectionIsConfession
      We live in a world where up is down and down is up and user have demonstrated that in this article.

    • So a few things to consider. First new vaccine technology uses the crisper technique. Bill gates explains this as the vaccine actually goes in and replaces the strand of DNA that coincides with immunity. It changes your DNA permanently. No chip that can be removed. Second we are moving into a cashless society. Some places are claiming coin shortage and only accept cards or exact change. Some fear touching money. Third, we will be tracked and traced and the bill that proposes this is bill HR6666. Fourth they are proposing an iridescent tattoo on your right hand That can be scanned to prove you have gotten the vaccine. No vaccine no traveling no working no buying and selling just like no MASK right now. Its especially easy to control when you are all digital. No under the table cash. No mark you starve. Sounds like the mark of the beast to me. Uncannily described literarily over 2000 years ago. The whole world will be scared into it. This means Jesus is coming very soon because the Church is supposed to be raptured before the peace treaty in Israel with the antichrist. So if pretrib rapture is correct and the covid vaccine is crisper technology and we are headed toward cashless and a tattoo to prove immunity and it will be here in about a year or two then tribulation is coming soon. If APOPHIS is supposed to hit earth either 2029 or 2036 then I would guess we have 2-7 years before tribulation. I know no one knows the day but the pieces fit the puzzle.

    • Susan’s Testimony About the Mark of the Beast (3 separate confirmations)
      On recent occasions, I have spoken to two different groups of people in two different locations/venues about the coming of the Mark of the Beast and that the current RFID chip and the corresponding International bar coding system was the Mark of the Beast as mentioned in the Bible. The LORD has revealed to me over and over that the RFID chip/International bar coding system is the one and only mark antichrist system. The LORD recently confirmed this to me again.
      Here is what happened. I spoke to my Bible study group that despite what people said this RFID system is the mark of the beast. As I was speaking to the Bible study group about how the LORD has revealed this to me over and over, one of the ladies in the Bible study had left the room and came back in with a stunned look on her face. After I finished telling the group about the truth of the RFID chip, the lady who came back into the room said she saw a large angel standing behind me looking down on me the whole time I was speaking to the group. She continued to describe the angel as very bright and she saw his face and it looked like a man’s face. That was the first encounter…
      About two weeks later, I was speaking to a completely different group in Chicago and putting out the same message about the coming of the LORD and the RFID chip. And yet another person claimed (she did not know about the other encounter with the angel), she saw a large angel standing behind me as I spoke. She said this angel had a gold crown on and was sprinkling gold dust on my shoulder as I spoke to the people.
      Now I just want to say that these people who reported seeing these two different angels did not know about each other’s sightings nor had they spoken to each other—and yet they reported almost identical accounts. I believe this is another clear sign to me that the RFID microchip is the mark of the beast.
      Mark of the Beast…My Testimony (3rd one)
      Several years ago, I had read someone’s account of the Mark of the Beast of Revelation that they had in a dream in the 70s. In their dream the LORD showed them the exact location on the body that the “chip” would be placed into the individual. He had created a diagram of what he saw and how it was placed in the hand between the webbing of the thumb and index finger (this has since come to pass). I was intrigued by this account because at that point in time, this information did not exist. After reading this account, the next morning I told my son, who was a fifth grader at the time (and at that time no one knew where the chips would be inserted in the body), the story and how the man described the location of the placement of the chip in the human hand. Next I was on the verge of showing my son the location on the hand and suddenly my son cried out in pain. He had shooting pain and he showed me the place he felt this pain–IT WAS EXACTLY WHERE THE MAN SAID THE CHIP WOULD BE PLACED IN THE HAND. My son said the sharp pain he felt was right in the web of his hand between the thumb and the index finger and he said the pain shot up his arm from that point. I was absolutely speechless because prior to this he had no idea what I was going to tell him. I was stunned by this event. I knew then just how serious this whole thing is. Today people say that the RFID chip is only a precursor to the actual “mark” but it’s not about whether its the first generation or second generation of this technology that qualifies it as the “mark” IT IS ABOUT THE TRADE-OFF OF TRUSTING A MAN-MADE SYSTEM OF PLAYING GOD VS. GOD AS THE CHOICE OF HUMANITY. ANYTHING YOU IMPLANT IN YOUR BODY AND CHOOSE HUMAN TECHNOLOGY OVER GOD IS GOING TO CONDEMN YOU. Revelation 14:11 (KJV): And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

    • You are 100% correct. The thing that has been very eye-opening to me is how compliant the majority of people seem to be. They are like zombies. Their inability to look at the actual data, ask questions, and think critically about the extreme response to Covid-19 is very telling and shows that they already have a kind of blind faith in the government and people in positions of power.

      • I agree it’s very scary.. people can believe what they want but I am a Christian and I do believe that this vaccine could be the mark of the beast.. I believe it will come to the point of them not letting you fly, come in grocery stores to buy food etc. without the vaccine and that’s a scary thing to think about. Read the scriptures in the Bible about the end times.. it’s near and no, no one knows when it’s coming but if you look at all the hate going on around you between everyone and the pandemic it will become obvious to you.. please get your lives right with God and read the Bible.. May God bless all of you reading this..

    • I’m not replying to anyone here, but just squeezing in without having to scroll through any more comments, I’ve read too many. Has anybody researched them inserting another person’s DNA into their body as they did with the woman’s cells (HeLa cells) that multiplied? The HeLa cells are in almost everybody’s body so I feel like a form of DNA from COVID-19 patient survivors will be in our bodies. Kind of like flu vaccines? Am I off on this? Just curious.

    • That is a very keen response. I have wondered the same thing my whole life. This many people could be tricked. Including myself if God were to allow it. The way I look at covid 19 isit’s a social experiment that will set up eventually the mark of the beast because it was practiced already. In response to the author of the article, I feel like you’re being very vague with your interpretations. And when you refer to the beast a normal sensible person would never worship and follow a beast that is going to lead them to hell and destruction and pain and chaos they are tricked into it, so above all else guard your heart.

    • The mark of the beast is a human number which controls ppl and enables you to buy and sell . The number is a tool that’s been used by all and required today. It’s something that god never introduced. $$$ money that’s the mark of the beast created by man/beast for the creation of divisions just like religion

    • This is typical “I went to seminary and know best” elitism from an arrogant pastor talking down to the “flock.” I think this pastor represents everything Jesus spoke about in Matthew 24. People are asking fair, Jesus recommended questions of these alleged leaders and scientists who would happily lead them out into the desert. I’ve been incredibly disappointed in how many faith leaders I’ve seen warning people against fear and “conspiracy theories” when they ask very fair questions as instructed by the only Shepard that matters, Jesus himself. Lastly, this ridiculously arrogant and patronizing post didn’t age well as we all correctly predicted that airlines, music venues, and other businesses are now pushing for mandatory vaccines in order to “buy or sell.” While this may not be the mark, any discerning Christian can see where this is headed. Shame on the author. You can have your “scholars (see also pharisees),” I’ll go ahead and take my instructions from Jesus.

    • The COVID-19 vaccine has an ingredient in it call luciferase along with DNA of animals like monkeys and minks (beasts) that’ll go into your blood stream… I won’t get into it too much but Satan is clever and I feel that he is preparing to claim souls with this vaccine. Without it, we won’t be able to do anything. Be careful where you lead people.

    • Y’all are going to pay dearly on judgment day for misleading people! This vaccine contacts numbers that are mentioned in the Bible as well as fetus tissue from ABORTED babies!!! Y’all are NOT God and deceiving people is exactly what the devil does by using you!!!!! No sound theology about deceiving people into taking a vaccine that Bill Gates created and he’s killed many caused others to be unable to walk, etc) in India as well as Africa!!! The side effects are horrible!!!!

    • Rev 14 states: Her Wrath of Fornication.

      Only God brings Wrath.
      The Father is Eloah. The Mother is El Shaddai, yes, the “Her” we search for (proverbs 1..)

      We know all power, honor and glory is given unto Jesus, The Ressurection. And Jesus testimony provides the answer we need as we live through the generation, as signified by the birth in Rev 12.

      The answer is like babies milk:
      Be obedient to God and have Faith in Jesus Christ.

      Ref: earthquake in Concepcion, FukuSheMa, christ church, Agean Sea, etc.

      Thru authority of Jesus, we may deduce false doctorine in the church and Jesus testimony reveals an apocalyptic time in a generation as was with moses, elijah, and noah.

      Rev 12:11 states we will die, not rapture.

      Rev 13 description of a lamb is not an anti christ. A lamb is of God. King David states: let the horns of the righteous be lifted.

      She was given a white garment: this is not the church. A bride picks her dress and is not seen until walking the aisle. Jesus was given a white garment and tomb..

      Geez, to think one man, let alone all the pastors of the church are the bride of christ..
      Totally perverse… like said in Jude.

      Deserving of a Her Wrath in Rev 14..

      So Jesus testimony is we live thru Revelelations, die once on earth, unlock the 1,000 years until the First Ressurrection where hopefully we do not taste of the second death and then he takes a bride.

      Note rapture has never occurred since prophecy 150 years ago, therefore jesus Prophets of Rev 11 are like ezechial states in the house of the lord there are ministers of the 4 directions boiling the congregations.

    • This is not a reply to anyone but I couldn’t figure out how to make a comment.
      When we add up letters and numbers in and a person’s name in English… shouldn’t we do this only with Hebrew alphabet?

    • The vaccine is the mark of the beast, it will change your DNA and RNA, that’s putting its own mark. The chip is the number of the beast and the Tattoo is the name of the beast!! When they give you the vaccine, the chip will be in the needle and you will give the vaccine and the chip, as for the Tattoo, I don’t know how they is going to give it to you yet. It might be in one of the vaccine, im not sure. But the vaccine is the mark, because it will put its own mark in you and the chip is the number and it’s going to track you, the Tattoo is the name and the name of the Tattoo is Luciferian. Vaccine =6 chip =6 and Tattoo =6 = 666. The Bible says that it will be a separation between GOD’S people and the devil people, well the vaccine is the separation because GOD’S people can’t take that vaccine, GOD won’t let us!!! Here is some nuggets. The vaccine is going to bring in the tribulation and the tribulation is going to bring in the Anti christ and the anti christ is going to finish bringing in the new world order!!! The vaccine is going to make everyone that takes it evil and killing is going to be worse than it is now and that’s is what they need to bring Satan on the scene and change the constitution, that’s how the new world order coming. When Satan comes he suppose to fix whats broken, Satan children is breaking everything so Satan can fix it when he comes. Everyone that takes the vaccine will Automatic receive Satan as God!!! The vaccine is digital and the chip, the Tattoo is digital too so you will be hooked up to the internet!! www. Whatever they want you to be and want you to do!!! U won’t be human anymore and you are not taking the mark by accident because GOD’S people are telling you and you choose not to believe and you are making that choice to take it anyway!!! The devil lies and his children lies too!!! That vaccine is not for covid, it is to change and control you!! The Bible says that the mark will be in you, not on you. That’s why you won’t be able to repent because you won’t be able to get it out!!! The Tattoo is the one that is going on your head or hand from the inside, how, I don’t know but they do!!! Please don’t take the vaccine!! Oh here is something else, GOD don’t flood the world just because people was mean and evil or violent, GOD did it because they changed their DNA, Mixed it with animals DNA and they were not all human anymore, that’s what made them act like they did and they messed with the animals and Defile them and their self, that’s why GOD flood the world and save only 8 people because Noah and his family was the only one who was human and had the right blood!!! Love y’all and may my LORD and SAVIOR bless you and keep you safe!!

    • We have already has accepted the mark.
      www is the number John was seeing in his visions. Because W was the Hebrew numeral for 6. The book of Revelations was written in Hebrew at the time. There was a leader called W who began waging open blatant war of aggression on our modern civilization. And they’re singing the covid 3Wsong (wash your hands wear your mask watch your distance) WWW to the coronavirus 19. W it’s also the letter in the mystery who what when where why how. What was the mystery name the lady had anyway? I have the understanding now you have the understanding.

      • The Mark of the Beast is described thru the bible. Its not one particular thing, rather an accumulating thing.

        Yes, for many generations, people have pointed to one or several things or objects. Each generation has set thing(s) and object(s) such as a national census, social security number, rfid chip, etc. and phrophecized things such as a person recieving the 666 mark on the forhead and right hand.

        Wjen my mom told me a man will mark people on the forehead and hand.. my immediate thoughts were: NO WAY AM I ACCEPTING THAT! , LIKE SOME BIG BROTHER ZOMBIE SCI FI THRILLER.

        We should not pit god in a box of human made things amd objects, nor put god in a box based on what someone says god says… this will lead to false teachings.

        So, lets hear what the bible reads, use wisdom to make the “best” assimilation.

        Google being marked by God.
        An example is exodus 13:16 where god imprints gods will on your frontlets and right hand.

        So, what one thinks and correspondingly does is from the imprint of god on a person.
        (This message may be elaborated, tho i am keeping it short as explaining the framework.)

        If one does not accept/know/desire serving God in ones life, then they “generally” being “humanisitic”
        So the mark of man/beast is simply saying one will be thinking for mans values and doings more than sealed by god.

        Remeber, the bible, when revealed, will be like “babies milk” and become the meat and potatoes to dine and digest. Like the scroll which is sweet on the tongue and bitter in the tummy. Sweet like honey in Praising and being obedient to God and bitter in the bowels as one realizes the many people who forsake god and know not wizening the Truth.

        So, how does the mark of the beast produce transactions between all peoples? Well, an easy example is, all money has been corrupted. This is one cannot say this penny is corrupt and this penny is not corrupt. Really, all money or in our case 2 pennies, assumes some percantage of corruption. Therefore, we have begun to wizen truth in the scripture.

        How deep is god? well, a birth takes place in Rev 12. Its a deliverance like days of moses, elijah and moses. So, in a generation, beginning with a metaphor of a birth, like god used before, a lamb of god will reveal the truth, like a messenger of god, thus causing sacrifice.

        Ready for some more babies milk.. well, christians sacrifice themselves daily to the will of god.

        So how does the godly person differ from the humanistic person. We all are creatures, yet the godly do as the bible in Revelations states, be obdiemt to god and have faith in Jesus Christ.

        Thank you Jesus for revealing your Testimomy in Revelations whilst doing, serving, the will of God.

        A birth, or generation(s) that is and will come is used because on the Father knows the time.
        So, if you agree to this then a birth raised to god, our greatest reward on earth in psalms 133, happens for you at a time your circumsiced heart is birthed… so the time of receiving Revelations differs for each person and god knows that time of your belief.

        If one rejects revelations, rev 12 states the earth helped Her and swalloed them up. This means non believers stay in the grave.

        Here is quick wisdom… leviathan and behemoth are like zeitgeist.
        Revelation apocalypse is for the church. God will dust the church like an Agean Earthquake to the 7 churches.
        Why? Prophecy shows Gods ways are higher than man and god uses correction in phrophecy to reveal omniscience and love for Gods Children. We have been given authority thru jesus to beware of false doctorine. Teachers of false doctorine in the house of the Lord are described in Ezechial as ministers from the four directions who are boilimg the people. Rev 3-4 jesus revealed the church will be like houses of Satan. Rev 11 represents jesus false teachers of the church, male and female, where once brought before the lord, only a “remnant” will not be knocked down to earth.

        Please realize the Kingdom of the Father where the Father, Eloah, and Jesus, the Ressurection are male.
        El Shaddai is the femine entity of God.

        Rev 12 reveals mother mary standing in creation. One may not look upon the eyes of god or will surely die. So the Creation represents the “woman” or “her”. The “Her” we search for, as in Proverbs, is present.. el shaddai.

        There is no rapture as Rev 12:11 states we will die. Then hopefully the second death we do not taste of or be stung by.

        A bumch of people are not disappearing or floating off the face of the earth.. and the church is not the bride of christ.

        False propjecy is when one propjecies something and it never comes true. Millions have longed for, worshipped for, thirsted, etc for RAPTURE.
        RAPTURE has never ever come true for thise millions of people who are now DEAD.
        Therefore and statistically speaking we experience one death and the bible tells us we are gifted one life on earth.

        Men are NOT to be betrothed to another man. To Christians, men marrying men is pervrse as the bible states. The Pators are not going to disappear into the clouds, be the bride of christ while jesus reigns for 1000 years on earth.

        Ridiculous…

        So i can go on what is Apocalyptic to the church..
        Rev 11 jesus says it will be like sodom and egypt.. whoa!

        Tho one must reconcile the solution, not just the shortcomings of the church.

        The bride is not a city.. cmon..
        Jon sure did want to see the bride, tho did not reveal envisuoning the actual bride..
        Haha jon! Lol gotta wait

        Hear this.. she was given a white garment.

        A bride picks her wedding dress and one does not see the bride until she walks the aisle.

        The bride is “given” a white garment, so if this is not a wedding dress,, what is it?
        Lets look to the bible..
        Jesus was given a white garment and a tomb..

        Wait a second, darlings..
        Will the bride be a girl?

        Jesus loves the flesh (our image) so much, he will marry a girl.

        Let he who hears hear wisley..
        Not misread the bible
        For gods sake.

      • @Christine Linden please stop! Of the guessing games I’ve heard in regards to the mark of the beast, yours is the wildest! And the most bizarre! Not to mention that it is not supported by scripture. There can be no mark of the beast without the beast of 2 Thessalonians 2:3 being revealed first, the son of perdition. And NO! We won’t be tricked into taking the mark, just the coming vaccine, we shall have a right to choose whether to take it or not, with consequences for refusing it just like there is for not wearing a mask. Thus suggesting that we’ve “already” taken the mark is misleading and not biblical as Revelation 13:8 clearly states who will take the mark… NO! It’s NOT everyone! That’s a lie! Besides, the mark of the beast is divided into four instances: The mark; The beast’s name; The number of his name and the worshipping of his image. And those who “refuse” to worship the beast ‘shall’ be killed (Revelation 13:15). Notice how this is still to come?Thus your www myth doesn’t hold water in this regard.

        2 Thessalonians 2:3

        “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;”

    • Yep. This article completely rationalised away the “mark” to a nothing-burger. Exactly what the devil wants us to think. I don’t really know the author but God has mercy on us that we have such misguided “teachers”.

    • “It will be something by which you will be able to buy and sell.”

      A chip, or passport, or anything carrying the information showing you are duly authoirized. It’s not the medical procedure itself.

    • IMO, technology/AI is the reason these times are much different than past times of war or thoughts of end-of-times.

      1. Our world is completely global already and has been.
      2. Technology/AI, we have technology that is already developed that can completely control our minds. Currently, it’s outside our bodies, but within 1.5 years (according to Musk at Neuralink) they will have this tech in our brains. This tech will allow them to control thought or the outcome of thoughts. This time it’s much different, because humans are on the chaos of not having even mental control of their emotions.

      -no more free thought
      -no more prayer (prayer is the most powerful thing we have, if this is taken away, that’s it, it’s done)

      The moment we can’t pray and connect to our father, it’s done. I don’t think God will let the world get to that point.

    • The mark according to Revealations is something that will be required to buy or sell. Granted the COVID-19 is not a visible mark but it has the potential to lead toward a visible mark. We have already seen how easily people have been coerced into wearing masks that are required to shop in some stores, tavel on airplanes, and visit your physician. Wouldn’t it be logical now to provide individuals with some sort of mark that shows they have been vaccinated? This could be sold as easily as wearing a simple mask but now if you have been vaccinated yu don’t have to wear a mask just have a mark to prove you have been vaccinated. Just my humble thought about the matter.

      • Romans 1 20-22, matthew 7:15 gives authority to identify false doctorine. Covid 19 is Rev 14 on that it is Her Wrath of Fornication. This scripture is sequential after a man caused the mark of the beast. Thus, the bible is true to the point of Rev 14 and one must realize the Truth. Revelations is Gods ways which are higher than mans ways.

        What does this realize to…
        The theologians will be fallible in their interpretation…
        But apparently the lamb of Rev 13 causes, thru Gods Word, the events Jesus, doing the will of His Father, as prophecized.

        *revelations is Apocalyptic to the church as the false phrophets of rev 11. Ezechial envisioned in the House of the Lord, ministers of the four winds will be boiling people.
        * rev 3-4, jesus says the housed of the lord will be like houses of satan.
        *rev 12 is a birthday (blessing)
        *There is no rapture as rev 12:11 states we will experience death.
        *The church is not betrothed to Jesus, it is a remnant.
        *the lamb of Rev 13 is not an anti christ. King David says let the horns of the righteous be lifted. Jesus is a lamb, so this lamb is in the will of god. Lamb and lion, king, a man. One whom God uses.

        The Truth of Prophecy will be as Jesus did, “turn things over”.

        Oh, all the millions of theologians, etc that are longing, worshipping, thirsting for a god that is going to rapture them.. is false.

        How do i wizen this? Phrophecy must come true and it never has.. each one of millions has died. You and me will die. Remeber this as you die.. and that will be proof ?too late

        Am i a fool for saying this?

        HER WRATH OF FORNICATION
        is Covid 19.

        Wrath implies something is vitally wrong with Gods people, the church. Wrath is given by God as admonishment and the bible says Wrath is given because God loves His Children. Wrath is of God, wroth is of Satan.

        Wait a second, the bible reads”Her Wrath”. So Eloah is male and El Shaddai is female.

        This reveals god is not some new age one thing… no, god is not sexless nor a hermaphrodite. God is not only one entity.. father, son, holy ghost is 3 . And El Shaddai is 4.

        There is ONE “will” of God, as far as I know.

        Further, how does one know the chirch is not going to rapture and be the bride of christ…

        There are marriages on Heaven! In Heaven, love is most likely beyond any type of earthly love and marriage.

        Who is the bride? She was given a white garment. Brides, nobly, are not “given” a wedding dress, she chooses her wedding dress.
        Jesus was “given” a white garment and tomb. This indicates most likely the Bride of Christ is a girl whom Jesus shows us he loves the creation of people so so much, Jesus will marry a girl on a new earth, not in heaven.

        Lost in translation.

    • The mark is something to buy and sell. because they are offering 1500 I concider that a bribe but if you are on wellfare or any kind of assistance if you want your money you have to comply. That doesnt make sense the CDC has done very well giving studies that are not correct as they claim but they do it thru medical records why the change. Its all computer related can be done in the same amount of time thru medical records. Why the tracker if you are trying to fix a pandemic give the vaccine why add something to it. Because you have put fear in people. But sadly that was the first thing that came to my mind the researcher I was looking at talked about it being visible its not and they have people having to say the first one was ok im looking foward to getting the second injection if this is a good thing why would you need that propaganda.

      • Mark God bless you, the writer just want to bring confusion to already clear message .
        If the mark is more or less of invisible thing as he claimed, why is bible telling us that the mark will be received on the forehead or right palm.

        • God will know who a person is.
          In Deuteronomy and Rev 22 God seals you:
          Rev 22: 4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

          GODS commandments are instructed to be on ones mind and thus in ones works.

          So this represents on the frontlets and doing with ones right hand. “Right” implies righteousness.

          So the mark of man/creature/beast indicates Gods Sealing is not choosen in mind or sealed ones mind and thus not in ones works. This is what we call to be hedonist, humanist, aetheist, sorcerer, perverted, etc..

          Its very easy to understand a Diegessis of Reveletaions and find a scripture true now.

          Rev 14 states Her Wrath Of Fornication. Wrath is given by God. Her is El Shaddai. The Fornication is Covid 19.

          Revelation is Apocalyptic to the World and Church. So what is wrong w the church? MUCH!

          1)REV 12:11 States we will experience Death, NOT RAPTURE!!
          2) obedient Christians believe and obey the bible saying man must not betroth man. So no man will be betrothed to Jesus. No man will be the bride of Christ.

          So, the Church is NOT the bride of Christ.

          The bible says:
          She was given a white garment.
          This is Jesus Bride.

          The bride of Christ:The she is a girl, a singular noun;
          Hesus became a man and will marry a girl.
          A bride is not “given” a white wedding dress as a bride “chooses” her wedding dress. So what is “given a white garment”? Jesus was given a white garment and tomb upon His Burial. As Jesus, the bride will be given a white death shroud.

          So Jesus Word is revealation/ apocalypse to the church because He Loves us.

          False teachers , as in Rev 11, will be waiting in the lake of fire for the end of 1000 years when satan and the 1st beast of rev 13 are cast in.

          Jesus is God, does the will of God.
          God the Father is Eloah, and His Kingdom is earth.
          God the Mother is El Shaddai.
          God is the Holy Spirit.

          Hollowed be Gods names.
          Note the “EL” REFERS TO AN ENTITLEMENT, not necessarily a proper persons name.

          If one does not believe this then rev 12 states:
          And the Earth helped Her and swallowed them up.
          This means if peoples do not believe we are the living generation Revelations is written for, then one will be swallowed in Shoel.

          More on rapture: For a phrophecy to be true, it is spoken and cones true. If a prophecy is spoken and does not come true, then it is a false prophecy and teaching.

          The prophecy of rapture has been spoken, repeated, petitioned, made $80 billion for the church and never ever come true… no one or many has ever raptured!!!! So its false phrophecy/teaching to say tge church will rapture.

          The truth is more beautiful for one to ponder. REV 12 woman clothed in the sun is a sign and wonder.. a birthday.. to be caught up is to have God on your mind, spirit and what you do..

          A woman clothed in the sun represents social justice, equality…

          Rev 12, the Her, is what we are told to search for in Proverbs. .
          El Shaddai!
          The blessed among woman, mother Mary is the earthly figure seen in apparition on earth many times. FATIMA, GUADALUPE..

          Rev 12 Mary stands on creation. Well why do we not see El Shaddai?? Same reasone we do not see Eloah or the Holy Spirit in absolute, true heavenly form..

          God will not look eye to eye with us because if one looks eye to eye with god, they will surely parish. God loves you so so much god wants you to live this life, believe in God, then experience death and not experience the second death as obes name is in the book of life.

          Praise Hesus for His Testimony in Revelations.
          Rev 1:3
          Read revelations and be blessed.

          Lo Whoa! misread revelations, divide the Word incorrectly, and prosper in false prophecy and teachings., like the church does saying tge church will be raptured and become to marry Jesus.. Crazy satan made the church think that.

          Wait, everyone will die, not rapture

    • we are discussing the buy of sell part connected to the vaccine because we may be required to have a card or something proving we have had the vaccine to enter a store, have a job or fly on a plane

    • See trying to explain that it’s not the mark of the beast is idiotic the Bible states let no man have a private interpretation of the word lest he be thrown in hell the Bible states what it states the beast will demand u take his mark or u can’t buy or sell the COVID vaccine demands u take it or u can’t buy or sell idk

      • @Rodrick True What you say, however the beast aka Antichrist has not yet been revealed (2 Thessalonians 2:3). Thus the mark cannot precede its custodian. Besides, the bible warns us about four different instances directly linked to the mark:
        1]. Taking the mark of the beast
        2]. His name
        3]. Or the number his name (666)
        4]. And the worship of the beast and his image

        Therefore, given the above, the vaccine cannot be the mark of the beast. For the vaccine is liquid, thus it shall be circulated throughout your body, but notice how the bible says the mark will be taken in the forehead or the right hand. We shall not be tricked into taking the mark, we shall have a conscious “choice” do so. Hence the consequences for those who “refuse” to take the mark or give consent to the other instances related thereto.

        The mask-wearing ritual and the vaccine are surely precursors to the coming mark of the beast, but they themselves are NOT the mark of the beast.

      • @Rodrick The mask and vaccine are precursors to the coming mark of the beast, and yes, no one can buy or sell without the mask, and soon without the vaccine. However, neither of the two is the mark of the beast for a simple reason: the bible says the mark shall be taken on the forehead or the right hand (Revelation 13:16-17), which is not the case with the vaccine or mask.

        • No but soon you will have a invisible tattoo for the vaxxed ,according to Bill gates and I wonder where it will go
          Don’t be fooled people revelations 13 is very specific

    • This is absolutely apart of the beast system. People are looking for the mark to be one specific thing… it’s not it will creep up on you..The power’s that be aren’t stupid.. they aren’t going to jump out with a stamp machine…it will be subtle…Do not rely on what you think or wat science tells you.. this is about discernment..The very elect will be deceived..

      • @Barbara Walters I respectfully disagree. The bible tells us “where” in our bodies we shall take the mark: The forehead and the right hand (Revelation 13:16-17). We shall knowingly take it, and we shall equally have a choice not to take it, with consequences of cause, the same way we choose whether to wear a mask or not and bear the consequences. The same is true with the coming vaccine. Thus it is NOT possible that it will “creep” up on us. NOTE: Google “Smart Mark Zombies” maybe you’ll get an idea of what the mark of the beast will be like.

    • Please read the book the great controversy by Ellen g white chapter 26 USA in the Bible prophecy it give info who the beast is and what is the mark.

    • It constantly amazes me that no one remembers when the United Nations issued Resolution 666 on13 September 1990 during the Iraq invasion of Kuwait
      The “beast” is was Resolution 666 which prevented anyone buying or selling anything unless the INVOICE was marked with the number 666 at the TOP or the RIGHT HAND SIDE of the invoice

      For the current pandemic you are 30 + years late and should be looking at the two prophecies of the 144,000 in chapters 7 & 14 of the Book of Revelation

      In ch7 they are vaccinated (sealed on their heads) but in ch14 they are singing their song in on mt Zion, which is in Heaven.

      They were dead. The vaccine didn’t work!

    • PLEASE CONSIDER THIS… when Christ came, it was the most studied and “devout” Jewish leaders and scholars (Pharisees, Chief Priests, etc) who did not recognize what was clearly in front of them. Why? They also created God in their own image. They were certain of their their interpretations because of what it meant for/to them personally. They did not want to believe in Christ. They did not want to hear Truth. They had positions of great power and wealth. Their pride hoped for a king that would respect and appreciate what they did, and lead alongside them with great worldly power. They didn’t leave their hearts and minds open (humility) to truth. They were CERTAIN it was a false messiah, just as most “scholars” are certain this is not the “mark”. The Holy Spirit leads me away from all of these lies. Masks seem to clearly be a ritual initiation into being a child of satan. Death is what you are to fear as part of satans worship, not God. The vaccine is what he wants you to see as your savior, not Christ. satan wants you to BELIEVE in an alternate cause of death (vs. sin) and the antidote to life; have FAITH in the salvation of it, and obey to show your allegiance to him. Your body IS the temple of God and your DNA could very well be your name in the book of life. These vaccines change your DNA through mRNA. They also include Luciferace – a magnetic dye that can be seen under your skin with a special light – as part of the vaccine. You already cannot but or sell certain things, and if you don’t wear a mask, you will experience this trial first hand. It will only get worse. Satan is a copycat. He wants to be like the one true God. All of this points to him trying to change Gods creation into his own as you read more about trans humanism and all that has been going on. We need to stay awake and aware daily and to be ready. Please reconsider thinking that this is all a coincidence. It’s the master deception. Any thought otherwise is most likely based on what we WANT (lust, pride) vs what is TRUTH. Repent therefore and be converted!

    • There is certainly a push for the world to take an experimental gene therapy injection, and talk of not letting those who refuse to take it go shopping. They are trying to condition people and soon that chip in your phone may end up in you just like the dogs, cats, cows, sheep, sharks many fish and many land animals.

    • Interesting in Israel right now it’s very hard to buy n sell ,travel or do anything unless you you have the vaccination certificate ,and I seen people getting their right hand scanned to go into a supermarket sounds ver revelationary

    • This article and reading the comments has brought peace to my heart. It’s overpriced hyped on this and spreading more fear and confusion.

      If there was more logic that the media, the internet, the cell phone is more likely to be the mark of the beast than covid.

    • Wrong. The mark is visible and has two parts one a tattoo and one part the evangelist could not explain which is under the skin. So a tattoo for quick identification and a chip for more thorough one. Also the tattoo will look like the greek letters for tge number 666. We are prepped for this and the proof of vaccination will bring the mark

  • Excellent article!! Finally! Some common sense and sound theology!! Thank you!

      • Well then, if it’s a spiritual mark then that means worshipping the Christ Jesus in the wrong Sabbath day right? Because I’m Baptist and been going to church in Sunday. But I’m wondering if I should change that. Please respond

        • You can go to church on Sunday, that is right. Jesus arose on Sunday, so the Christians worship on Sunday. It is the New Covenant. The New Testament.

          • The whole getting your forehead scanned is nothing more than conditioning ,samewith the implants and free food I’d like to know whuch large company is dkingtthat,because it is probably tied to the filthy rich .

            Im 42 and I didn’t think all of tgjs would happen in my life time,but it’s looking like I was wrong

            I live in Memphis,Tn and the first week of lockdown I stayed out all night and morning the whole week ,commercial air traffic hd been stopped all together ,odd for a shipping capitol,you just didosee fedex that week at night ,what was up there was tve occasional life flight,and drones running a pattern from sun down to sun up,keeping track of who took orders correctly ,I have never seen tge streets so empty ,and never drove 50,60&70 mob on surface streets and got away with it,buy thaf week I did,the police never even pulled oit from there spots , definitely strange, we are all being groomed for the mark and biw things willl be once they start that requirement.

          • There is no evidence for your statement (rose on a Sunday).

            Christians/Catholics, created this story to replace SUN worshipping of the ‘Pagans’.

            Jesus rose on maybe a Tuesday afternoon.. who really knows.

          • The change of the Sabbath from the 7th to the 1st day of the week was legalized by Constantine, and that law was later confirmed by the Roman Catholic Church, NOT God nor Jesus Christ. It was only after the Roman Catholic Church changed it that leaders of protestant denominations latched on to it and spread it throughout the protestant churches. The early church never kept the first day as the Sabbath, God never changed the day from the seventh to the first, nor did He give anyone else authority to do so. Jesus and the disciples kept the seventh day, even after Jesus’ resurrection, and nowhere in Scripture will you see anything giving us authority to keep the first day instead of the seventh, which God ordained. Any verse used by the contemporary church to validate that day as Sabbath was referring to other matters, NOT God’s Sabbath. [See the following excerpt from “Who Changed The Sabbath to Sunday”]

            “When Emperor Constantine I—a pagan sun-worshipper—came to power in A.D. 313, he legalized Christianity and made the first Sunday-keeping law. His infamous Sunday enforcement law of March 7, A.D. 321, reads as follows: “On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed.” (Codex Justinianus 3.12.3, trans. Philip Schaff, History of the Christian Church, 5th ed. (New York, 1902), 3:380, note 1.)

            The Sunday law was officially confirmed by the Roman Papacy. The Council of Laodicea in A.D. 364 decreed, “Christians shall not Judaize and be idle on Saturday but shall work on that day; but the Lord’s day they shall especially honour, and, as being Christians, shall, if possible, do no work on that day. If, however, they are found Judaizing, they shall be shut out from Christ” (Strand, op. cit., citing Charles J. Hefele, A History of the Councils of the Church, 2 [Edinburgh, 1876] 316).

            Cardinal Gibbons, in Faith of Our Fathers, 92nd ed., p. 89, freely admits, “You may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we [the Catholic Church] never sanctify.”

            Again, “The Catholic Church, … by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday” (The Catholic Mirror, official publication of James Cardinal Gibbons, Sept. 23, 1893).

            “Protestants do not realize that by observing Sunday, they accept the authority of the spokesperson of the Church, the Pope” (Our Sunday Visitor, February 5, 1950).

            “Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change [Saturday Sabbath to Sunday] was her act… And the act is a mark of her ecclesiastical authority in religious things” (H.F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons).

            The Catholic Church claims that “the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact” (Catholic Record of London, Ontario Sept 1, 1923).

            What a shocking admission!

            As seen in the above excerpt, the Catholic Church now claims that the fact that most of Christendom now keeps the 1st day as the Sabbath is proof of the Catholic Church’s “mark” of authority to do so. They also admit that if protestant Christians really loved Jesus and wanted to obey His commandments, they would keep the 7th day instead of the first.

            Why do most Christians believe it’s important to obey most of God’s moral law, but reject only the 4th Commandment of God? Most say that it’s because the 7th day is the Jewish Sabbath, and that Jesus abolished it by His death on the cross. That’s not true, however, since the commandment was given to ALL mankind by God on the seventh day–at the conclusion of CREATION–BEFORE THERE WERE ANY JEWS, to signify His authority as CREATOR, at which time He blessed it and made it holy, as “a perpetual sign” (the words “sign,” “mark,” and “seal” are interchangeable in Scripture) between Him and His people. I believe it is the “seal” with which He will seal His people in the last days.) He saw it important enough to then include it in the Ten Commandments given to Moses, to be passed along to the children of Israel–referred to as part of the Law of Moses, or Mosaic Law. As for Jesus abolishing the Ten Commandments, that’s impossible, since the Ten Commandments are God’s moral law, and those never change. The “Jewish law” that Jesus died to put away were the ceremonial and sacrificial laws that atoned for sin in old times, NOT the moral laws of God, which never change. Jesus Himself said he came to FULFILL the law, not to abolish it. He fulfilled it through His sacrificial death, becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world. Thus, the sabbaths (small s) spoken of in the verses you quote were NOT the Sabbath (capital S) moral law of God, which He blessed and made holy to signify his authority as CREATOR.

          Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath

          As long as you give a FULL day to God….NOT just a couple hours of church….but ONE full day to God as rest then it doesn’t matter which day YOU celebrate Him but a FULL day of rest!!

        • I think that it is more important to have a sabbath on whatever the day of the week you can.
          God did not say to worship me on a particular day. He said on every seventh day. If that is Tuesday for you then rest & worship Him on that day.

          To me He meant that every seventh day I should rest and think on Him but that I should also praise and worship Him on all of the six other days as well.

          There is no condemnation to those who love the Lord.

          • Regarding the sabbath, Jesus is the Lord of sabbath and we find rest in Him.

        • I agree with this article as the mark of the beast is about denying our messiah and God and worshiping the beast . I think it’s spiritual but there needs to be something else as revelation mentions not being able to buy or sell . I don’t see how getting a vaccine shows you are worshiping a beast or denying our one true God and our messiah Yeshua ( Jesus )
          As for the mark of God on us – well please look throughout the Tanach ( first five books of the Bible ) which the whole New Testament ( terrible translation by the way as the Bible is ONE book ) is based on – yes, every time Yeshua referred to scripture , he was referring to God’s Holy word which he never changed .
          There is a common theme – God’s covenant with His people was them obeying His laws and Shabbat was one of them . Yeshua worshiped on Shabbat and NEVER said to change this. Matthew 5:17 is just one of many versus I can quote to you . Shabbat ( Saturday ) is a covenant between God and His people and Constantine changed this as he wanted to be ‘ politically correct ‘ and so he had the church worship on a Sunday as the pagans were worshipping the sun on this day .
          Yeshua never came to make a new religion which says to ignore His father’s commands – this is illogical .
          Worshiping God on any day is a great thing to do , but keeping His commands show we love Him and are His people , just like Yeshua did .

          • It is the same way wearing a mask is denying God….you aren’t putting your faith in God….you are putting your faith in other things….such as a mask and vaccine….you aren’t trusting in God to protect you the way Psalm 91 says….it is also saying you’re afraid to die….we aren’t supposed to fear death….to keep our lives is to lose it….to lose our lives is to gain them….we can’t love this world or things in it MORE than God….we have to stop wearing masks and trusting in man made stuff….we NEED to trust in the Lord!!!

        • Jospeh Hume– Look at whom the dragon is wroth– “And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” Rev 12.17 and what is the endurance of the saints? “And the smoke of their torment rises forever and ever. Day and night there is no rest for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name. Here is a call for the endurance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” Rev 14.11,12. –It sounds like you have a valid question, Joseph– study it out- dig deep in the Word, from the beginning to the end of the Book– ask the Most High for wisdom– I for one want to walk the way of the saints and worship God– so we need to really seek out what this means– and if we think we know what that means, I think we still better look again. Blessings!

          • I am not so sure now about the mark of the beast being a physical mark, even though I, as many, have always considered it as being a physical.one. However, the Word of God says that the mark will be on the forehead or the hand. The “mark” in the area of those two parts of the body may be less literal and more figurative. The head is where we use thoughts and words. The hand is what we use to do any type of action. The mark then could be interpreted as how we speak and live through our thoughts, words and our actions. If, by our actions, thoughts and words they show us as Jesus (good and righteous), whom we are supposed to follow and become like, and we worship God, then we are “marked” as being of and worshipping God . The Bible says we are marked of the Lamb when we accept Jesus Christ into our hearts and are saved. If one’s actions, thoughts or words show one as demonic or satanic (evil and unrighteous) they are “marked” as being from Satan, which shows that they follow and worship Satan.

          • Monica Smith I think we need to read the entire section on the mark of the beast in the book of Revelation, especially chapter 13:16-17 which makes reference to the coming mark of the beast. Otherwise if we take snippets of scripture, we run the risk of applying “private” interpretation to scripture (“Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.” – 2 Peter 1:20).

            Revelation 13:16-17 states the following:

            “And he (the second beast) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.“

            Thus the mark CANNOT be “interpreted” ‘as how we speak and live through our thoughts, words and our actions.’ Otherwise how do you present the way you speak or your thoughts or your words or actions at the stores so you can buy or sell?

            Hope this helps. Much love.

        • Sabbath-keeping? Are we still under the Mosaic law?
          Did Christ not come and institute a new better covenant?
          “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath,”
          Jesus went out of His way to violate the Sabbath.
          He obliterated the sacrificial system, because He brought an end to Judaism – with all its ceremonies, all its rituals, all its sacrifices, all of its external trappings, the temple, the holy of holies, all of it, including . . . the Sabbath.
          If you want to be under the Law again -you are rejecting Christ.
          Paul said, “Let no one judge you in food or in drink,
          or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths,” Colossians 2:16
          If you are going to place the writings of Ellen G. White above the teachings of the Bible then we must consider Seventh Day Adventism as a cult.

          • @ James Knox – No, we’re not still under Mosaic law, but the Ten Commandments are God’s moral law, which never change. Jesus came to “fulfill the law, not to abolish it”–in His own words. The law He fulfilled was the Mosaic law–ceremonial and sacrificial–which atoned for sin in old times. In so doing, He became the “sacrificial Lamb of God” that taketh away the sin of the world. His sacrifice abolished the sacrificial system–NOT the moral law of God, which never changes, but abides forever. Jesus did not violate the Sabbath; He and His disciples kept the 7th day, even after the resurrection. The 7th-day Sabbath of God (God’s moral law) was given on the 7th day, at the end of creation, when God rested and blessed the seventh day and made it holy, becoming a “perpetual sign” between God and His people. Perpetual means “ongoing,” and keeping the 7th day instead of the first is attributing to God the authorship of the creation. The Sabbath (capital S) is God’s seal or mark (the words “mark,”, “seal,” and “sign” are used interchangeably in Scripture. Satan has a counterfeit for most of the important things of God, and his counterfeit of the Sabbath is the first-day sabbath (small s), which the Roman Catholic Church established in the fourth century. We do not reject Christ by keeping the Sabbath God blessed and made holy; we honor Him and the Father by so doing. Keeping Sunday honors the antichrist, the Papal system, which changed the Sabbath from the seventh day to the first in the fourth century A.D. [See my post above.] The verse you quoted above refers to the sabbaths (small s) of the sacrificial system, which Jesus abolished by His death on the cross, NOT the Sabbath of God–the 4th Commandment. His moral law abides forever and is unchanging. We are not placing the writings of anyone above the teachings of the Bible. You are not understanding the difference between the Law of Moses–the sacrificial system–and the moral law of God which never changes–the Ten Commandments, which most Christians at least try to obey, while disobeying the 4th Commandment. If you do some research on what I’ve said, you’ll find it to be true. God rested on the seventh day, and He blessed it and made it holy. He never changed it, and He never authorized anyone else to do so, nor did Jesus change it nor violate it. He and the disciples kept the 7th day as the Sabbath, even after the resurrection, and the Bible tells us we’ll continue to keep it throughout eternity. You’re keeping the antichrist’s 1st-day sabbath, and thereby, honoring that system. What authority do you have to prove your claims above? The Bible is mine, as well as history. See the following link:
            https://www.cgi.org/who-changed-the-sabbath-to-sunday/

        • If you feel that way, you can do a devotional on Saturdays with your family. I think the spirit of truth dictates it to you. Nor is it true that Jesus was resurrected on Sunday.

        • No Joseph don’t change your worship day. Sunday is the correct day. Keep on going to your Baptist Church. I am Baptist also. Under the old testament covenant re: sabbath God commanded the Jews to rest on the last day of the week, which is a Saturday. It was sabbath meant only for the Old Testament Jews But with the ushering in of the new covernant a Christian sabbath is revealed in 2 places in the book of acts. Sunday is the Christian Sabbath. Its a Sunday celebration because Jesus rose from the dead on the 1st day of the week, which is a Sunday

          • Read the book the great controversy by Ellen g white chapter 26 USA in the Bible prophecy it give info who the beast is and about the mark and what is the image of the beast.

          • @Jose No, the mark of the beast “will” NOT a day of worship. For if it is, where “would” that leave those who do not worship, let alone on which day? And notice how the bible says “he causeth ‘ALL’…”? (Revelation 13:16). Besides, sunday has been without us since inception, thus it cannot be part of prophecy given that prophecy is about events still to come. Notice how a soul is not redeemable once one takes the mark of the beast (Revelation 14:9-10), but one can change their mind and choose a to worship on saturday instead of sunday? See how this doesn’t make sense?

    • Hello my name is John. I recently gotten tested for Covid, They put that long looking swab utensil in my nose. And after words I was a little fearful that could it be possible that, that test could have something today with the mark of the beast. I read the article but honestly I’m still a little worried. Help

      • Hello Jonathan
        I would not be concerned about your nose swab. That is a very old and routine method of checking for viral or bacterial infections. As to the mark. It will not be something hidden or slipped on unaware. As is noted in the Bible and in other responses here. It is used to be able to buy or sell. This means it will have to be obvious that it was received. Most importantly remember this. If you are a devoted disciple of Christ. Our Lord wins & shares His victory with us.
        God bless.

        • My friend you are deceived in to believing that the mark will be hidden or unnoticed. The actual mark will be an RFID micro chip physically inserted into the webbing of your right hand between your thumb and forefinger so you can use it to scan bar code readers to buy and sell anything. That chip will contain all of your personal ID banking information and complete medical history. This chip will follow soon after you commit to being vaccinated. Once vaccinated the vaccine companies are immune for any liability if you die, get sick or very ill from the vaccine thanks to Bill Gates.

      • This is what ALL Christians NEED to do…..we need to stop giving into fear….we need to stop giving into people and taking these tests and wearing masks….we NEED to trust in God for once….no one seems to be truly trusting in God during this….stop listening to people telling you you need to wear a mask….even if that means losing your job….trust that God is a provider and that He WILL provide for you….dont take no more tests because if you truly trust in the Lord Psalm 91 says it won’t touch you….they are falsifying the numbers and everyone who takes a test will come back positive….we NEED to stand up as the church and refuse what they are doing to us….they are taking our faith and making us trust in man made stuff….even to the point unto death we NEED to stand up and be willing to die for the name of Jesus Christ which is what we would be doing…..dont give into fear for God did NOT give us a spirit of fear but of self control love obedience….we NEED to stand together and refuse what they are giving us otherwise YES this world will be over before our eyes…and even if it is we need not be fearful….to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord….we HAVE to know what God wrote in the Bible is true today as it was in Moses time and Adams time….its time to take a stand church….no more can we follow our governments because they ARE going against God….we can’t exchange our faith for a mask…a vaccine….or ANYTHING else they try to make us do….its time to know God WILL prevail…i mean Jesus has already won the victory….

        • I saw another mention made about wearing the masks, if I could post another view as I’m a bit confused at what your message is. Are you saying that if we wear a mask that we are displaying a lack of belief in God? I wear a mask because I truly believe a mask will protect myself and others from the spread of Covid. If we start correlating mask wearing to our belief in God (choosing to not to wear a mask to signify our Christianity, our faith in God), then are we also denying all medicine, doctors, hospitals, surgeries etc.? God gave us the beauty of intelligence, minds and science too to use for good. He has provided plants, medicines and the treatments for disease through-out time. Miracles, in fact Jesus Himself was a Healer so I know healing is an act of love! Wearing a mask simply does not equal that I’m living in fear, masks equal love for my fellow man. I am going to wear a mask because I believe that masks slow the distance of projection of a potential disease bearing individual, whether myself or that other person.

          • Yes, you are wearing a mask and living in fear of a cold. If it was a real pandemic people would be dying left and right. They are not because its not any more deadly than a flu–actually its less deadly than flu or even the death rate of the most common flu vaxx. My father and brother in law are doctors and they know full well that this is being faked and exaggerated for political reasons. They do not understand whats really going on but at least they know its a lie. You are not to live in Fear, especially fear of something that isn’t real. The stats are faked. Look it up; do some research. Pam Popper, Peggy Hall at thehealthyamerican . org Look at videos from news that isnt paid for by the same 5 companies as all mainstream media. The Highwire is one. Godd luck, you’re going to need it.

        • I completely and totally agree with all you have said, it really couldn’t be much more obvious or fitting with Revelation. Especially when you look up Bill Gates’ ID2020 webpage.

          Pray that more will realise this!!

      • Hi Jonathon. You got no worries at all. Covid 19 has got nothing to do with the Mark of the Beast. TMOTB has got nothing to do with the 21st century. The prophecy about TMOTB was totally fulfilled in the 1st century. The Revelation was written in the 1st century to 1st century Christians. On You Tube google up a 3 part teaching series by Dr Ken Gentry on the book of Revelation that will make any fears you have on end times melt right away,

      • Please read the book the great controversy by Ellen g white it give info about who is the beast the mark and the image of beast chapter 26 USA in bible prophecy.

      • @the word of God: It would help greatly if you could use punctuation marks when writing. As it is, your comment is rather difficult to understand.

  • “What all this means is that the “mark of the beast” is most likely a spiritual, non-visible mark; it’s a mark of loyalty and worship and is not, therefore, something you could accidentally accept.

    If the mark of the Beast is not a physical mark but spiritual, why does the text also say of the mark in Rev 13:17, that “so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name”? Why would a spiritual mark forbid, or not enable you to buy or sell?

    • Because Proverbs 23:23 says:

      Buy the truth, and do not sell it, Also wisdom and instruction and understanding.

    • Hi, Ian! Thanks very much for your comment. You definitely raise a great question. In fact, I’m going to be writing a follow-up article that will address specifically the “buy/sell passage” that you ask about. In the next article, I’ll be providing some historical background, point folks to relevant scholars, etc. Be looking for that next week!

    • I feel we can be deceived into getting the mark of the beast in these vaccines? There are many hints in the Bible that the end times could be confusing. With the Corona virus, and all the bad talk about the vaccines, why would we even trust the vaccines?
      See in the bible:

      Revelation 19:20 says the false prophet deceived those that had received the mark of the beast. When asked about the end time, Christ said “take heed that ye be not deceived.”

      Revelation 20:3-4 says that those who receive the mark will be deceived.

      Revelation 13:18 says that it takes wisdom to understand the number of the beast.

      Second Timothy 3:13 tells us that evil men and imposters will wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

      Revelation 13:9 “he who has an ear let him hear” proves that you must be receptive to its message.

      Revelation 17:9 says it takes wisdom to understand the beast’s identity.

      Second Thessalonians 2:9-10 speaks of deceivableness and delusion in the end times.

      Revelation 13:14 the two horned second beast “deceiveth them that dwell on the earth” to cause them to worship the first beast.
      Christ warned (in Matthew 24:24) of an endtime false religion that if possible, would deceive the very elect.
      And there is a false prophet that issues forth spirits who will influence the kings of the earth. And men will turn to cleverly devised fables.
      Falling for deception has grave consequences today, just as it did for ADAM AND EVE.

      I was reading the rev 13:16 about the mark of the beast in a Bible ap called esword its free on the computer. It has a Hebrew dictionary attached. In that bible verse I looked up “mark” for mark of the beast its G5480. When I went to G5480 it says from the same as G5482 and It also had the word (xáragma) I Google the word
      (xáragma) see what it says. I’ll take a picture and post it below: It says 5480 xáragma – properly, an engraving (etching); (figuratively) a mark providing undeniable identification, like a symbol giving irrefutable connection between parties.

      5480 /xáragma (“brand-mark”) was originally any impress on a coin or a seal, used by an engraver on a die (stamp, branding iron). 5480 (xáragma) later became “the identification-marker” (like with an owner’s unique “brand-mark”). I’ve read that the vaccines have some sort of die for identification. This could be in fact the mark of the beast. View it your self to see what you get.

      • If you are a born again Christian you can’t receive the mark unless you fall away from Christ.

        There is a mark of The lamb for Christians and the mark of the beast for everyone else

        • The devil likes to imitate God, but in a way that mocks Him. Remember, he said, “I will raise my throne above the stars and be like the Most High.” So, if God puts a spiritual mark on his people, the devil will also seek to mark his loyal followers. Therefore, I believe the mark of the beast will be an upside down or inverted version of God’s mark – hence it will be a physical mark.

      • Thank you for sharing the location of these verses! I’ve been looking & could not find what I knew was there. Also, I appreciate the info about the app.

      • Lisa I feel our danger is people who claim that the mark of the beast will not be a physical… but a “spiritual” mark. This could lead to a whole lot of Christians accepting stuff they shouldn’t because you cannot be on the look out for…and / avoid an invisible mark. How do you guard against that? I have read the above-mentioned follow up article, and it’s suffice to say I was not convinced. I still say it’s prudent to say we don’t know when we don’t. That way we avoid making unfounded and potentially dangerous assumptions that could lead many to eternal damnation.

        • Hi Luvuyo . Dr Ken Gentry never claims all the Prophecies of Revelation are fulfilled, but the majority of them are, but there a number of significant ones that are yet to happen. Dr Gentry is a Partial Preterist like myself. I sincerely believe its the correct way to view Revelation. He can prove with scripture that the mentioned view is correct.

    • Ian, John was writing to that generation and warning them. Governments are evil, and Satans main tool to deceive and control people. The good news is that Gods Kingdom is already at work here, and we should be looking at the Sermon on the Mount, not Rev 13 so much

  • Hello Mr Matthew L Halsted,
    Finally an article correctly explaining “mark of the beast” and the “mark of the Lamb”. The issue at the end of time comes down to the day of worship. That is why the Fourth Commandment (from the Bible) says to remember the Sabbath. The only one that tells us to remember, but it is also packed with much more, which is not part of this article.
    Worship is the issue and as you mentioned, and it is the very first verse in Revelation — the revelation of Jesus Christ.
    Thank you for your article. You should write more about this as well. Too many false teachers and in the times we are in now, it is becoming a matter of salvation for everyone. Praise God for your words.
    God Bless

    • Chuck Franz I don’t believe for one second that the mark of the beast would be a day of worship. If that’s the case, where would that leave throngs of people who do not worship whatsoever! Let alone on which day? Where would that leave them? Secondly, how do you reconcile that claim with the ability/inability to buy or sell? And what about the bible warning on accepting the mark of the beast which clearly states that it’s an unforgivable sin and a permanent choice (Revelation 14:9-11)? Yet one can easily switch between sunday worship & saturday (Sabbath) worship, which contradicts the above-mentioned scripture. And to top it all, the above-mentioned days have always been here. Thus it means this is not a prophetic event as we are already worshipping on saturday or sunday. Can you explain this phenomenon?

    • Yeah, you can see it play out like this, if you go into a public business, “they are like mam/sir where is your mask? You need to have your mask on.” To, mam/sir, where is your mark?” You can see a video of a man being forced and pulled off a bus because he doesn’t have a mask. It’s not really about the mask, it’s about power and control. People are killing and hurting each other over a mask! We have people snitching on other people. That is where we are heading, people calling the authorities because they noticed someone wasn’t “marked.”

  • So this piece is about what vaccination and Covid-19 is not, but not about what it is. At least you could have said that Revelation is a message of doom, of God’s forbearance, giving an opportunity for repentance, a message of faithfulness–as well as a message of man’s corruptions and obstinence, despite God’s forbearance. Some of those elements, though not much based on Revelation, were also in John Piper’s booklet.
    Your piece is a helpful corrective to those who have neglected to read or study their Bible, who spend hours on conspiracy theories and hardly minutes in their Bible. However, you would do well to also say what the Bible has to say (or not) about Covid-19.
    Though even saying, keep calm, there is no beast, nor second one, is still a message of impotence. People are looking for answers. There is a massive crisis here, just like there have been crises in the past, in which churches were irrelevant, hardly seen or heard, while their societies sunk.
    PS: You take the moral high ground vis-a-vis those politicizing religious sentiments, though your remarks about flags and guns make clear you yourself are politically biassed.

  • Great observation. The information contained therein is to the point and calming. There are many voices out there that run contrary to biblical teachings, your clarification; is an eye-opener.

    • His clarification, as you put it, is only an opinion, one of a million different opinions. Just him saying that violence has no place in basically anything is ludicrous. No violence, in his opinion, is the only answer to everything. Christians have allowed america to become the evil sess pool that it is by sitting back and doing nothing. AMERICA WAS CREATED BY VIOLENCE! ONLY VIOLENCE WILL SECURE FREEDOMS WHEN EVIL MEN SEEK POWER.

  • Sounds like you have been reading my material. It is encouraging to see the voice of reason among the wild speculations. I wrote a book on 666 for exactly the reason you stated. Rational respectable biblical study vs. wild speculation. You make a couple of points I overlooked, most importantly that the mark represents what you already are, it doesn’t turn you into something, and you don’t take it without knowledge.

    My book though is almost exclusively on the level of explicit definition of the number, and I don’t go into symbolic or interpreted meaning, intent, and how we implement the understanding of Rev 13 in our lives today. Your article here reminds me that perhaps I should resume my work on the subject, as I frequently post arguments similar to your words here.

    If you don’t mind, I will save the link and some time by referring to you instead of writing 3 paragraph replies when the occasion arises.

  • Awesome educational direction. We are not supposed to live in fear, only Fear of the Lord. This should be a comfort and cause for rest for those who Love Him. Thank you for sharing…

    • As Christians, our peace should not be dependent on our circumstances – the key to our peace is not the absence of troubles, but, rather, the presence of God in the midst of our troubles. Sadly, many Christians are opting to “sleep,” but the word of God tells us not to be asleep as others are, specifically in regards to the end times (1 Thessalonians 5:1-11). God didn’t give us bible prophecy to scare us, He gave us bible prophecy to prepare us. Just like in the days of Noah, this world is growing more wicked by the minute, and it will continue to do so until Christ’s Second Coming. Satan knows the time is nearing that this ungodly world will be ready to embrace the Antichrist. As the end times approach, we are NOT to live in fear of what’s ahead because we are equipped in Christ: “For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline” (2 Timothy 1:7). God will never leave us or forsake us and His Grace is enough no matter what life throws at us, so we must stand strong and be wise: “Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:15‭-‬16). Scripture is clear that things will get worse as the end times unfold, but in the end, God wins. And no matter how dark the days look, God is still in control.

      “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” ~ Matthew 28:20

      “Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will help you; I will hold on to you with my righteous right hand.” ~ Isaiah 41:10

    • You can go to church on Sunday, that is right. Jesus arose on Sunday, so the Christians worship on Sunday. It is the New Covenant. The New Testament.

  • And for seeing the visionary “mark” on the saints as something spiritual rather than physical, see its less symbolic New Testament manifestation in the seal of the Spirit, and its Old Testament precursor in the visionary “mark” on those who grieved over wickedness at the time of the Babylonian invasion (Ezekiel 19)–and we have absolutely no evidence at all that anyone then actually received a physical mark. These things in Ezekiel and Revelation are super-symbolic visionary representations of things described more naturally elsewhere.

  • Well spoken down, so true how many are confused because they have not learned the word and there ears are waxed in they don’t hear.

  • It is physical. “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:”……..

    • It is not willful adoration of the beast; if he causes great and small to take the mark, that means coercion or force or “you don’t do this and you don’t eat” and lots and lots of peer pressure to do it, from your kids who want to eat to your family and peers and so-called theologians like you telling people “it’s not the mark, it’s no big deal.” It will be a physical mark. The RFID chips implanted in the loose skin between the thumb and index finger, is in the palm and is a mark, even if it’s visible only through certain types of light.

      • To Mart

        Well said speak the truth i dont know if your male or female but good on ya you like me you speak your mind Sister/Brother mart

        ???? Good Spirit you haveJesus is the truth the wsy and the life

        And i agree with what you said.

        But is the mark before or after the Rapture?

        About Mathew P.H.D Pastor

        How does he know its not in a medical procedure i read his comment and i have not learned anything there it sounds more of a personal view than biblical based facts.he has a P.h.d? ok what doe he have a p.h.d in?

        Nicodemus (in a bible story) was a Pharisee if am not mistaken and was highly intellectual but still could not understand what born again meant when Jesus was trying to teach it to him which was in parables of course. But Jesus said that he should of understood what he was telling him.

        This goes to show it does not mater how intelligent some or most of us are we are still flawed in our comprehension of things in this world especially when it comes to God.

        Whoever this Mathew Ph.d Pastor is he is quite possibly fears the truth of Gods message regarding the Mark Of the beast so he changes the true meaning of this message to one that is more bearable and convinces himself he has the right interpretation and when he believes it enough in his mind his fear of Gods Message loose grip on him and disapears

        This why i believe some Christians avoid to hear or ignore the true message because they are uncomfortable when reading scriptures like in revelation. But whats more importsnt comfort or the truth that will set us free from sin and death

        I have suffered so much in life that i wanted to end it.. because the hardships and the obstacles.i had to face was difficult but something inside told me to rise up and fight the depression! ,fight the doubts,! Fight the fear! And so i did oh and how difficult it was the hours of praying daily, reading posive scriptures for my soul and sing them to counter combat these negative demonic entity’s (Metaphoricaly) and over a decade ior more they loose grip on me and i conquered and prevailed. during my battle with these negative forces in my mind i dreamed i was wrestling with a demon it had the apearance of a black panther and a black pointed tail with pointed ears with red eyes, demony looking it was i restledit and i throught through a window and i awoke and felt so strong like i cud do anything.. the demon was either a manifestation of my fear or an actual one attacking me in my sleep..

        I was wondering this because the attacks i wont go into stopped and i s now sleep like a baby since then which was in early 2000 and things i was afraid of i n life i cud face them for many years

        If you feel fear tell yourself God has not given me the Spirit of fear but of Power love and of a sound mind. Keep teling yourself this if you believe it it iwill disapear

        Nothing wrong with fear. fear promps us to protect ourselves when our fear senses danger we act quickley to protect ourselves and we get a release of adrenaline if we should get hurt or sense danger coming our way which is energy release that also works like fuel to give us strength to get out of crisis if we should have an accident. i guess fear also causes us to take matters seriously that need our urgent attention like Debt, Morgage, debt loans, and other debts, if we did not fear the outcom of not recovering these debts we would not care about it because we would not worry so we dont remember as result it maybe possible to keep up with your debt payments without worring with some people but you see my point here.

        What is Fear

        Nothing wrong with having fear in our world as long as it is controlled.. keep it on a leash of selfcontrol were fine
        .
        If we did not fear God or his message what would we do about our salvation nothing!!

        what the Pastor or believer said on this website regarding the mark Ofthe beast been a Spiritual Mark and not a physical mar

        King James Version bibleis the one i trust

        And where the “mark of the beast” is concerned

        A holy scripture says in revelation somewhere that the Mark Of the Beast will be recieved on either the hand or forhead or both.

        And once you receive this mark you wont be able to buy or sell.. So this will replace cash money which is going to be scrapped soon i guess as many purchases and bills are paid online and telephone banking is an option all electronicaly done which both use debit card , Master card, Visa etc.

        So without these ID Payment Cards you obviously cannot buy or sell right?

        Because you need Credit (which is a term that is commonly used when a transaction is made into an account.or paying for something.

        For example i bought £30 of “credit” to topup my credit meter for electricity

        Or when i pay £350 on my rent account i am told this money is “credited” to my account or when using a credit card to purchase.very soon cash wont exist every payment method will be done electronicaly…

        So my question remains

        how can a “spiritual mark” be used to buy and sell..???? confusing!

        God is no author of confusion.

        This spiritual mark makes no sense what does worshiping the beast or Christ have to do with the methodology of how we will by or sell it makes no sense.

        I think He needs to read revelation again. Very carefully regarding this subject in all the years dating back to the mid 90’s And yr2000 when i had Christian meetings with my Christian brothers intelligent ones i never heard any of them including myself mentioning that the mark of the beast is Spiritual.. never!

        And he has a Phd this is got to be a mistake am sure. The mark will be implanted or received either on the hand or forehead or something like that havent read the bible for long time but it probably says on forehead or on the head or hand because some countries may receive it on the hand where as other countries will receive it on the back of their head or kneck who knows if its a chip i dont see how this could be inplanted in your head so any country receiving this mark on their head it will most likely be a barcode i think scanned a barcode of a item one time and i got information of it such as the brand the cost serial or product number etc so informain is in a barcode they have a similar method online s like a patern in black color you scan it to pay for something

        i think It helps if we use these various methods of payment technology works so we can be very familiar with it and see how it evolves we have a better understanding of something if we explore it in a practical way rather than just reading about it and trying to understanding it theoretically.

        God bless

        • I think it has something to do with it or it is the mark, because it is Lucifer-ase which means the bright one and it illuminates the code or number of the vaccines that you have had and it is connected with or is id2020. It is like this on the paper telling about it: WID2020 0606066. It also will be used for tracking.
          The Tracing Act 6666 is for the crypto currency is what I read yesterday. Seems like the mark to me. Mark means tattoo. The lights illuminating one’s ID and tracking and buying and selling with it.. it might go into the right hand or forehead a little while later. But sounds like the mark to me.

        • Its obvious to me re: that Pastor Mathew has a Preterist view of Revelation. I started off years ago with a futurist view, changed my mind and had a historical view, then i have made one last and final adjustment to a Preterist view. Not a full Preterist but a partial Preterist view. Partial Preterist believe that virtually the whole[ but certainly not every bit of it] of Book of Revelation was totally fulfilled in the 1st century AD. Certainly the prophecies re: The Anti-Christ, the Mark of the Beast including the buying and selling bit have been totally fulfilled almost 2000 years ago and it has absolutely nothing to do whatsoever in the 21st century. I kind of think Matthew was guilty of pussy footing around a bit he should have boldly declared what i am about to declare. HEY!! WISE UP CHURCH, THE 666 AND THE MARK OF THE BEAST AINT GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH THE 21ST CENTURY.

          • It is wonderful to see that most commentators have a good understanding of the Bible
            and share the same expectation of our Lord’s imminent return. The exception would be preterists or those claiming the rapture and future prophecy has already been fulfilled.
            You could say preterists have no future -at least not a good one. If you want to be one of the 5 foolish virgins with no oil or expectation -believe this foolish doctrine.
            Preterists are like Jehovah’s false witnesses in that ignore what Scripture plainly states in order to maintain their position. It is a hard sell in these times to say Satan and sin no longer reigns and that things are “only going to get better! It is also a bold lie to say that God is finished with the Jewish people when clearly He is not.
            Preterism became prominent thanks to a Jesuit priest, who sought to defend the Catholic Church against attacks of the Reformers. The apostle Paul encountered the first preterists: Hymenaeus and Philetus, “men who have gone astray from the truth saying that the resurrection has already taken place” -no wonder “they upset the faith of some!” (2 Timothy 2:16–18)

            It is always wise to see the cons of an organization before you listen to their lies least you become charmed by their words and lack biblical discernment. Study the real bill before you study the counterfeit. The Bible speaks of many antichrists, Nero was one -but not the Antichrist. A better example was Antiochus IV Epiphanes (168 BC) who did many of the things that will be done in the near future but neither made any peace pacts as Jared Kushner is attempting now. Nero NEVER made any covenant with Israel. Nor issued any “mark” nor sat in the Temple declaring himself God or demanding to be worshipped. Despite his “beastlike” nature -his persecution was limited to Rome (against Christians -not the entire world) so this was hardly the “worst time in all of history.” Nero was hardly the “King of fierce countenance” -he died in AD68 (before the destruction of Jerusalem AD70) -not by God, but by committing suicide fleeing from his own soldiers. Only Rome came against Jerusalem in AD70 -the Bible says that in the future ALL NATIONS will come against Israel and they will ALL be destroyed.

            Woe to preterists for taking away from God’s word!
            For “if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” (Revelation 22:19)

          • Thanks for your Comments James. Most of what you were complaining about is in reference to people that have a full preterist view of Revelation. There is a big difference between what a full preterist believes and what a partial preterist believes. Looks like you have painted me as a full preterist but I couldn’t have made it clearer in my correspondence that I hold a partial preterist view and I believe what Matthew Halstead from what he has written holds the same view. It is always wise to read anothers correspondence carefully before hitting the keys in reply

          • @James Knox: This is the best comment I have read in this thread so far! Thank you for the clarity. I picked up the term “Preterist” on a YouTube comment section after I was compelled to go and check out a Dr. Ken Gentry sermon by the same “paddle on” guy you replied to (I didn’t even know it existed). All because my spirit was churning within me with what he (paddle on) was paddling. I just knew right off the bat that what he was saying (and by extension what Dr. Ken Gentry was teaching) was not biblically sound, to the point where I asked him if we should just chuck our bibles to the nearest trash-can (sarcastically of cause) given that the good Dr. claims that prophecy in the book of Revelation has already come to pass in the… and was meant for the 1st century church? To which he replied ‘no no no, don’t throw your bible away for there are some parts of that prophecy which haven’t been fulfilled yet’. Which, needless to say, made no sense to me whatsoever! Thanks once more for this clarity. With the hope that “paddle on” will realise Dr. Gentry’s error and turn away from such unbiblical doctrines.

          • read your Bible [King James 1611] you are DECEIVED! Revelation is a prophetic Book, it discloses events that are to come, not what has come centuries ago!! PADDLE ON DUDE.

          • @Bud… I agree 100% with you. Revelation prophecy is yet to come. In fact, it has just started with the covid-19 plandemic. paddle on is paddling Dr. Ken Gentry’s doctrine, which I believe is in error.

  • I tend to think that the Mark of the Lamb is His name: Emmanuel, or God With Us. So perhaps the mark of the beast is his name.

  • I think there are some good points made in this paper. What concerns me is that in one statement, without stating your own eschatological understanding, you wipe out every one whose understanding is not according to yours, labeling/categorizing them as non reputable or non Biblical. Who then are the reputable scholars you refer to?

    • Hi Joseph,

      Thanks for your comment. I can go back and look, though I think I stated my position fairly clearly–at least with respect to what I intended to say (i.e., that the “mark of the beast” is most likely not physical, etc).

      Just for further clarity, though, I should say that I’m not at all suggesting that, unless everyone agrees with my views on eschatology, they are not “reputable” scholars. Scholars have always (and will always) have disagreements about eschatology. However, I do stand by my claim that, with respect to the more outlandish claims, reputable scholars do in fact avoid endorsing them. I know of know reputable scholar, for instance, who would say that a vaccine is the mark of the beast.

      I have grown increasingly dismayed as to how little scholarship trickles down into the churches. There are many reasons for this, to be sure. But what I’m attempting to do (indeed, this is my own life’s calling) is help “bridge the gap” between what reputable scholars are saying and the life of local churches. Given that anyone can post anything on various social media outlets (and given that when it comes to eschatology, the extremely odd views seem to prevail), it is very important for me to connect sincere Christians in local churches with those scholars who have dedicated so much of their lives to the study of the Bible. As someone with a PhD myself, I simply felt it was important to speak out.

      As to your question about reputable scholars, please see my reply to Ian above. My reply is somewhat lengthy, but I do interact with scholars you may find interesting. Also, please see the bottom of my original article, where there is a list of works from several noted scholars.

      Thanks again for the dialogue!

  • Well said. The end of times FEAR is just not a new phenomenon. It has been going on not just after Christ but before and not just amongs Christians but also other faiths as well.

    It is true to say, the Bible says, “The fear of the lord is the beginning g of wisdom”.

    Then again, this is under the OLD TESTAMENT. Since the coming of the Messiah, don’t you (readers) think, that the ‘MESSAGE’ of the Lord Jesus Christ, is not FEAR but LOVE?

    If it is LOVE, why then should we fear ANYTHING? Have we not understood, what Christ said about we ‘KNOWING THE TRUTH and THE TRUTH SETTING US FREE’ (John 8.32)? Why then do we fear about the ‘END TIMES’? Are we all going to live here forever? Is there not death awaiting us for sure?

    What exactly did Christ mean by us kowing the TRUTH? What is the TRUTH He was referring to? How is it that knowing this TRUTH He referred to, shall set us FREE? Free from what?
    Free from those who frighten us and mane become DEPENDENT on these FEARMONGERS? Is this a means of religious organizations utilizing this human sensation of FEAR to seeke REFUGE to them (religious organisations) for protection from the BEAST? Is a ploy to make the congregation GROW and to make the coffers GROW?

    I agree. Why pay all this attention to the BEAST and ignore THE LAMB (Christ)? Why do we IGNORE His teachings and COMMANDMENTS and simply pay far TOO MUCH attention to the ‘Spilling Of His Blood’ and throwing to the wind, what He has COMMANDED us to do? Why did He say:

    “Why call me lord, lord and not do
    the things I told you to do”?

    Are not the following words in the Great Comission (Matthew 28.19) most important, “….teaching them to OBEY everything I have commanded…”?

    How many of us pay attention to these CRUCIAL words? Sadly, I have not heard ANYONE making any reference to them.

    Forget about this ‘End of Time’ fearmongering and pay more attention to His Message.

  • Thank you for writing this! Great points all over, loved the “Let’s Play the Game” section particularly!

  • Thank you, I appreciate the measured approach and the desire to point readers of eschatology to the Lord Jesus Christ!

  • Very good article. I’m not sure though that the mark isn’t physical though I agree it is what’s in a persons heart that make him evil( like Cain and his mark). But I also wonder because the antichrist is able to deceive. Wouldn’t this mean that some receive the mark unwittingly? That they are deceived into believing a lie,as Eve was in the garden? I pray for all of us to rightly divide the word of truth❤️ Patty

  • How would you consider a RF chip that you must receive in order to show you are properly vaccinated in a new forced vaccine world? Also, this same chip would/could hold all of your financial information and most likely replace currencies. That is what I have been pondering. Is this a mark of devotion and loyalty to the world’s systems? Is this worshiping the world over our Savior? I have been hearing more and more about this possibility in the coming years (just not sure how soon), first about the financial issues but now even more with the medical issues.

    • My thoughts exactly, it IS a mark of submission and worship, not to a traditional religion but to the cult of secular humanism, transhumanism, technocracy and scientism which forms one of the best disguised religions out there today.

      That is to say, those who feel compelled to convince others a mandatory vaccine/digital certificate (discussed in a Rockefeller release this week!) is neccesary for this “new normal” and accept loss of basic societal privileges to those who reject it they’re hook line and sinker in the dogma of scientism “trust the experts=clergy”.

      Gates has repeated the scheme ad nauseam: no return to normalcy until you’re vaccinated … no return to normalcy until you’re vaccinated … no return to normalcy until you’re vaccinated.

      Here’s a quote from the actual document (linked at the bottom), it’s a 2020 Rockefeller Foundation Paper describing a “Unique Patient Identification Number”, which Gates calls it a “digital certificate” or “immunity passport”, but it’s the same idea:

      “Some privacy concerns must be set aside for an infectious agent as virulent as Covid-19, allowing the infection status of most Americans to be accessed and validated in a few required settings and many voluntary ones … Those screened must be given a unique patient identification number that would link to information about a patient’s viral, antibody and eventually vaccine status under a system that could easily handshake with other systems to speed the return of normal societal functions. Schools could link this to attendance lists, large office buildings to employee ID cards, TSA to passenger lists and concert and sports venues to ticket purchasers.”

      If that’s not a mark without which you are ostracized from society, not able to buy sell, etc… People who accept it are buying into a utopian world view of mankind conquering disease through “science” (oooh ahhh!) albeit in the form of a radical new and untested RNA vaccine that literally programs the spike gene of the virus into your DNA causing your biology to endogenous produce it, i.e. you’re more or less a genetically modified human after getting the shot (and electrical stimulation to activate the nano-technology).

      I’m not even Christian but this has made me really start second guessing things, it just lines up way too well.

      • The fact that you say you are NOT a Christian is something you should rectify as soon as Possible. However it’s not as Easy as said, Salvation is a Heart thing not a Brain thing. So with the heart man believes unto Righteousness. The mouth confess unto Salvation. So it seems you have the Mouth part with your rethinking. Sit down in your Room acknowledge that you have sinned against the MOST HIGH , and as him to forgive you. Acknowledge that JESUS CHRIST is the Son of God in that PRAYER. Then and only then are you SAVED. I hope you do. Sincerely Robert Valcourt

      • I’m sure you have watched the marvel movies such as captain America? Can you imagine a situation like that? They are trying to genetically modify humans, they want to make a super human species with science and technology. Elon musk’s neurolink is trying to put microchips in people’s brains. Scientist are trying to be God. People worship science as a God. Imagine the possibilities. I don’t think that is good at all.

      • I, like you, had doubts, although was raised in a Conservative Christian home and professed it for quite some time. Was turned off by “the church” and slimey pastors and fake people. Also had doubts from studying other world religions and decided it was all to control people, by a group of small rich psychopaths. I still believe the small group rich psychopaths, they are the gloablists. However, the absolute lining up of what’s going on with prophecy is becoming very much uncanny. Okay so it lines up, maybe they are just using it as their playbook and hand something to do with it years ago (say with King James translation or something). But there is NO WAY those humans could have forseen the current technology and what is going on, even if they had mass genocidal ideation. Pseudoscience (evolution which defies real scientific law of thermodynamics called entroy, modern medical science, etc.) seems to be their god of technocracy. I can’t get into how many real medical scientists have been offed, plundered, had their labs burned/papers stolen, thug threatened by the globalist medical elite plans/persons, etc. Look of Royal Rife for one. This bug is a nothing but a trojan horse for all the other plans….and they are not good ones. I noticed Daegle had the US population cut in 1/3 by 2025, but they took the web site down.

        I’m going to go back and read the Gospels liek Matt 24, and cross reference to Daniel and Revelation. We DO win in the end (although though we are told we will lose our physical lives). However, if you don’t accept the good news of God’s son, you’ll die anyway, but your soul will never be rejoined to a new body on a new earth. Eternal separation for God and all that is good.

        You’re smart, and I know that can get in the way of faith (in may case, too). I think you can prove the scriptures, though, if you attempt to. God has allowed you to not be deceived right now!!! That’s fantastic, just carry the rest of it through. And be careful about churches, almost all of them are false now. Best stay and home and learn on your own.

        • Hi Reba. If you want to study the Faith then you can not do better than watch the Reformed Theologian Dr Ken Gentry on You Tube. He has some really good teaching. Best i have ever seen.

          • @paddle on thru… I’d rather you refer people to the Word of the living God instead of preachers who might potentially mislead them. Dr. Ken Gentry’s teachings on the book of Revelation have gotten me suspicious. By claiming that biblical prophecy has already come to pass and that it was meant for the 1st century church, and has nothing to do with the 21st century church, he’s sent alarm bells of discernment ringing in my head. Am not sure of his intentions, but I’m not convinced by his end times teachings at all.

          • The problem with referring people to the word of God is that in countless cases that don’t have any understanding of it, I could refer someone to the word of God a thousand times and get the same ridiculous answer everytime. Everyone commenting on this site claims they are right into the Word of God yet everyone has got completely different ideas about what this means and what that means. Wild unsubstanstiated speculations seems to be the constant norm. Incomprehensible nonsense is put forward as cast iron fact. In the body of Christ there are all sorts of gifts, one of them is hospitality, one of them is teaching, another is knowledge and the list goes on and on. Dr Ken Gentry is a reformed theologian trained in systematic theology and he has a great gifting in discernment, knowledge, and teaching and has spent many years studying what other theologians believe re: all sorts of passages in the Bible. He works for an organisation where 3 or 4 theologians team up together for hours or days at a time nutting out what certain scripture mean after some prayer time first of course. God ordains certain men to teach others.

          • Beg to differ greatly, but reformed theology is a horrid doctrine, full of contradictions and easily refuted. Ignorant undiscerning people have to be taught this monstrous, cultish doctrine, for almost noone would cometo it’s contradicting, God dishonoring, conclusions by reading the Bible on their own. To think, that there are some christians who teach and believe that they are more humble than God, that sovereignty trumps love, that God could force everyone to be saved but chooses not to, etc…, etc…., etc…., is unbelievable to me. Who also
            claim ignorance of God’s truth as a legitimate excuse to defend their false doctrine when cornered, while proudly claiming to be the only sect that has the real truth. Try reading from real scholar such as John Fletcher`s checks, or Wesley’s sermons, “God’s love to fallen man”, or “On predestination”. Or do you not read the works of “hertics”, (oops I meant nonreformists)?

            P.s. Not disagreeing with you on your semipreterist views either. Its not that important to me to dwell on the teachings of men about the most hard to comprehend book in the bible. Especially from men who “know 3xactlu what it says”. In my view , usually whenever the crowd agrees on something, I start looking around for the truth.

  • Who would you consider to be the good scholars on this subject? Someone easy to read for a lay person.

  • I am a true believer and I believe the tribulation in the book of Revelation from K.J.V TO TAKE PLACE AFTER THE RAPTURE OF THE Church. And how do you explain about those having the Mark can not buy or sale. if the make is not a visible make .

  • Not a physical mark? Doesn’t scripture say it will be on the forehead or the hand?

      • The Greek word “charagma” used throughout the Book of Revelation in reference to the mark. The word literally means an engraving or etching.

        The literal Greek word for “where” the mark is placed is epi which is the English word for upon.

        • In this article under the mark it says there is a pre rapture….but that is false….Jesus doesn’t return until AFTER tribulation…and with these vaccines we will get a bracelet that says if we are vaccinated or not vaccinated and it will have nunbers on this bracelet it is like the bracelets that they use at Disney World…..these bracelets will say if we are vaccinated or we are not vaccinated and they will scan these bracelets and it will give ALL of our info…..they will have us scanned before we go into the store and if we don’t have a bracelet or it says unvaccinated we will NOT be allowed to go into the store….inside the vaccine will be a small microchip that has the number of the beast which will be connected to the bracelet….the devil has demonic powers and will not stop he doesn’t care how many people are on the earth or how much it costs….he wants followers like God….but in the end we know who wins….trump has already said they are GOING to start in the nursing homes….hence they are going to kill off all the old people first….this is how the population will go down….think of all the baby boomers that are going to die….i suggest if you have a parent or grandparent in a nursing home take them out….they shouldn’t be there anyway….theres a verse in Timothy not sure which one but it says…..those who do NOT provide for their families are as good as a heathen….so we need to be responsible for our family members NOT have them in a nursing home…..those are going to be the first ones killed!

    • The Greek word “charagma” used throughout the Book of Revelation in reference to the mark. The word literally means an engraving or etching.

      The literal Greek word for “where” the mark is placed is epi which is the English word for upon.

  • I hope my comment reaches the author of this article. He has a brilliant wife for encouraging him to write it. I came across it via Tim challies blog. I hope it goes viral. Excuse the pun.

  • We expect to get raptured prior to the Tribulation times, but if I am wrong, and it is later, I still will not be forced to accept a vaccination or tattoo.
    Those who protest with a sidearm serve as visual reminders that the Chinese once observed that even with their mega population they could not overtake the United States because “there would be an American with a gun behind every blade of grass”.
    Please tell me what you can add to this new article

  • Have to disagree with your thoughts about the mark. Yes you can’t unknowingly get it , but it will be peddled as being a brilliant idea and pr spin will be put into it , fooling loads of people . as scripture says even the elect will be tricked. A vaccine which “cures” all and has the added convenience of a chip which saves hassle will sound like a great idea …to those who aren’t aware. I agree we shouldn’t be panicking but neither should we stick our heads in the sand with regard to what is going on in the world. We do not know who the antichrist will be or what propaganda he will utilise

    • No, it says his devices will be so cunning as to fool even the elect…”if it were possible.” That’s a HUGE caveat in that scripture. The elect will NOT be deceived. That was a scripture to prove just how devious Satan will be… that “if it were possible” he would fool even them. But the elect will not be deceived. Jesus will not abandon His Children to Satan. They will know Satan. Don’t skip over any words in any phrase. Understand every nuance phrase even if tacked onto the end of a sentence.

    • IF even the elect could be deceived. They who know His voice will not be deceived. The passage is indicating it will be very strong delusion, but NOT to those who are His.

  • I agree that the mark isn’t something people won’t accidentally accept. But to say the mark is “spiritual” seems to belie Rev 13:16-17. My concern isn’t with specifically with Covid-19 and the Vaccine, it’s with a society that is so quick to trade their freedom for “safety”. We need to look at the larger picture. Something like the mark described in Rev, imo, has never seemed so plausible. I don’t think it was happen tomorrow. But the world seems to be moving in that direction.

  • Very informative. Shed some light my way: if the mark is what you say it is, what is all that about not being to transact etc?

  • Thank you for a very good article. One thing that I would like to question is the following- “Most likely, it’s not even a physical or visible mark at all.”

    This seems to go against Revelation 13:15-17 which says, “The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.”

    Even today people have received literal, physical chips for medical reasons. It’s easy to see how these can be turned into the only way to gain and receive money- all electronically through the chip.

  • Thank you so much for this. I have only heard about the mark of the beast and the Antichrist from the All I ever heard from the Pentecostal pulpit is fear, the mark of the beast, surviving the end times and the Antichrist. So freeing to know that Christ has marked His own and we, the church, have nothing to fear.

  • the best resources to dig into eschatology is to use the King James Bible and the Holy Spirit to guide you , let God reveal the truth to you, Don’t rely on mans opinions

  • Thank you for your comments on this subject. I have been embarrassed by the response of so many “Christian’s” in my community. I’m dumbfounded by the notion that a vaccine is being equated with “the mark of the beast”
    My husband was a pastor with a PhD in philosophy and apologetics who passed away suddenly two years ago. I so wish he was here to respond to these assumptions.
    Thank you, again for taking the time to address this.

    • Monica, thank you very much for your comment. When I first read it, my heart sank. I’m so sorry for your loss. I pray the Lord grants continued peace and comfort. Blessings to you!

      -Matt

  • Though your article has good intentions it’s profoundly naive. Focusing on Revelation alone whilst not mentioning Matthew or Daniel to mention just two critical books is like putting gas in a car & wondering why it won’t run, only to discover it has no engine. Did it ever occur to you that the Church of Medicine is in fact a religion? That the vaccine has a patent of 060606? That the enzyme required to make the digital ID glow is named Luciferone? That there is a Bill in the House re: Coronavirus numbered 6666? The Bible says many will be deceived. Do Not be deceived by being naive & ignoring glaring signs. The Mark of the Beast will in fact prevent those without receiving it to be unable to buy or sell. How then can it be “invisible”? It CANNOT. Period. It must be visible which is how they determine whether you have it or not. Christians WILL BE PERSECUTED in the End times. Jesus says this in Matthew. This is a result of Christians calculating the number & REFUSING the Mark of the Beast. Do not be the reason Christians are led to be deceived & receive the Mark, because you may be judged at the Day of Judgement for it. God Bless

    • Thank you, Tara, for bringing this up. There are many christians who still believe accepting the covid vaccine or any for that matter are perfectly safe and harmless. I think this author misses the point completely about why this particular vaccine is very dangerous and why people are warning to reject it. I don’t believe it’s the mark of the beast, but a gateway to it. I will never accept this vaccine, nor will any in my household.

      • Thank you Tara and Stephanie!

        I feel this is exactly how Christians will be easily deceived…I say easily because – as we can see from so many in the comments – people want to believe that the Mark of the Beast will be obvious. But as you pointed out…he is a deceiver. This particular vaccine could not be more concerning in its nature. Whether this is the mark or not…it is a mark, and we should be very wary of its origins. It’s almost as if the number of the bill, the patent, the name of the “ink” or glowing material is to make light of it all…think about it. It’s almost too obvious…but isn’t that exactly how deception works?

        Whether The Church is gathered before, during or after Tribulation is unknown. What we do know is that It will be incredibly challenging at all times. This is not going to be easy…IF and I do mean IF we are entering this phase of our existence – I do not think it will be as obvious as some seem to believe, so be vigilant. Question everything. Ask for guidance, wisdom, and above all be prepared for very difficult times. But do not fear…Trust

  • thank you for your words of wisdom and i appreciate them dearly, because all my parents talk about is how the vaccine is the mark of the beast and how end times are near, and as a 17 year old planning on moving into the real world this November, its scaring me a lot and causing panic inside me because i want to live my full life and see my future with my girlfriend and possibly my kids and friends.
    i have not read the Bible fully and will try my best to one day soon.
    once again i thank you for this article and for the reassurance of this entire situation of end times

    • I have 2 23 yr old twins , my one daughter was moving to NYC for a job that has been put on hold. We too have experience fear and sadness , I want them to live a life and enjoy being young . I think Satan has a spiraling in fear , God does not give us a spirit of fear . This was the only article that gave me peace , everything else is gloom and doom. Try not to get sucked into it , PRAY . Prayer is our weapon .

      • Sadly, many Christians have bought into Satan’s lie that this word is a “playground” when in reality it is a “battleground.” The storms of life WILL push and pull; we are not promised smooth sailing, but God promises that He will give us His peace, strength,and power in the midst of the storms and troubles of life. His Grace is enough no matter what life throws at us. This does not mean that we will never experience happy times or moments, but, ultimately, our joy and peace as Christians should not be dependent on our circumstances. Being alert and aware of the end times is not “doom and gloom.” It is called being a watchman. We are not called to be asleep as others are. And we are not to live in fear of what’s ahead because we are equipped in Christ.

        “Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done” – Matthew 16:24‭-‬27.

        “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will” – Romans12:2.

        “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” – Philippians 4:4‭-‬7.

    • Hi Alfonso,

      Thanks so very much for commenting. I think there are many good folks like yourself who are feeling the same way. I want to encourage you to continue to find hope and joy and peace in Christ. We can have assurance that, no matter what the future holds (and quite frankly, none of us knows for sure what the future holds), we can nonetheless have the peace of Christ permeating through every part of our being. Jesus wins in the end, my friend. Don’t fear the rumors and the chatter going around. Jesus is with those who trust in him!

    • The labor pains of the end times have been increasing for the past 2,000 years (since Christ’s death and resurrection) and even more so since the rebirth of Israel, which happened over 70-years ago (on May 14, 1948). The things happening are clear signs that the end times are approaching us faster and faster.

      “Then Jesus turned to the crowd and said, ‘When you see clouds beginning to form in the west, you say, ‘Here comes a shower.’ And you are right. When the south wind blows, you say, ‘Today will be a scorcher.’ And it is. You fools! You know how to interpret the weather signs of the earth and sky, but you don’t know how to interpret the present times.” ~ Luke 15:54-56. In other words, if they were keeping up with their scripture reading than how were they not able to clearly see that their Messiah was standing right in front of them? We need to read the signs of our time and know what time it is. This is called being a “watchman.” God didn’t give us bible prophecy to scare us, He gave us bible prophecy to prepare us. The word of God tells us not to be asleep as others are, specifically in regards to the end times (1 Thessalonians 5:1-11). There is no doubt that God is trying to wake us up and shake us up to “what time it is.”

      Although I agree that the “mark” cannot be taken by accident, scripture is clear that it will be something you have to take physically in order to buy and sell:

      “It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.” ~ Revelation 13:16-17

      Our modern-day technology (to include the technology being used for this vaccine) is the same technology the Antichrist will use for the mark. People will not be tricked into taking it because they think it is a vaccine (they will know they need it to buy and sell, as well as pledge their allegiance to the Antichrist). Cash, credit cards, etc. will be useless. Many will be martyrd for their loyalty to Christ during the Tribulation and for not taking the mark:

      “I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years” – Revelation 20:4.

      (I believe, based on scripture, that we have great reason to believe Believers/Followers of Christ will be raptured before the Tribulation, so I believe this verse is referring to those who become Christians during the Tribulation, but regardless, persecution and martyrdom should be expected with the Christian life, especially as the end times draw near. Millions of our Christian brethren have been persecuted and martyrd for their faith in the past and present.)

    • You need to do it NOW.

      What are you so busy doing that you cannot do now? Tomorrow is not promised.

  • I have to disagree. The mark you’re stating is a spirit, spiritual, a belief in something or an allegiance. However, the Bible states you cannot buy or sell without the mark. So stores and transactions will not do business with you if your spirit doesn’t align with theirs? How would they gauge that. No, the way I see it is the vaccine could (or not) possibly be the start of, but not the actual mark. If you haven’t been out even in the last wk, some businesses are not accepting cash anymore. They’re scared it may contain the virus. Eventually, this may lead to a small chip implanted on the person to make their transactions, and also carrying a whole other myriad of info, such as if they’ve been vaccinated, “safe for society”. But perhaps I’m wrong, but a possibility? If you don’t have the vaccine on your chip, you won’t be able to buy or sell, you’ll basically be deemed a leper.

  • Thank you , I have been feeling really frightened , and anxious thinking this it : I was raised. With fear of the end times, it was used as a tool to constantly be on alert , and frightened . This helped me feel more peace , Bill Gates is a dangerous man and in these days of covid his name has repeatedly surfaced. I don’t know how to seek truth from what I have been taught, I feel like it’s a bondage that has kept me from enjoying life and I know that’s not what God wants for my life

  • Who gets to determine who gets the Mark of the Lamb? God or us? It seems to me to be God. So from that perspective a vaccine doesn’t make sense. An individual gets to choose to get or not get a vaccine. Does that make sense? Thanks so much for your article your opinion seems logical to me.

  • this is false entirely.
    the vaccine will have quantum technology which edits your dna/genome getting rid of what they call vmat2 gene and moreso on top of that allowing the A.I.(artificial intelligence/super computer) 5G Control Grid System to literally control your brain and your person from there on out, like as exposed in the 3rd season of the netflix tv series “The 100”. Freemasons notoriously expose their plans in broad view as part of their dogma.

    That is why, anyone who takes it will guaranteed be cast into the lake of fire hell forever.

    Don’t take the mark of the beast.

  • I would appreciate your response to the upbringing I had as a child because the current events have triggered some fears I have tried to leave behind. My church taught the mark of the beast was basically a cashless system set up by the Antichrist. Only those who have it can participate in the economy in any way. In other words no pay for work, no purchasing food or paying your mortgage without it.
    As such, walking into stores and behind told they are not taking cash, or hearing stories that we should move to a touch less payment system to avoid germs has been bringing up old ways of thinking that I thought were in my past.
    Do you have any thoughts about that angle on the mark?

  • This is not a comment for public consumption but a sincere question. I think it is impossible to really know ahead of time what the mark of the beast will be, but it is certainly sobering that Bill Gate has a company dedicated to chipping everyone with their vaccine status and his goal is worldwide chipping and vaccination. For some time now there has been a strong move to force all people to submit to all vaccines to be allowed to go to school, to work, travel, or even appear in public. A pilot program in Argentina has tied driver’s license renewal to vaccination. The COVID 19 crisis has put that push into high gear.

    Here is my question: All of our live virus vaccines since 1979 have been manufactured using aborted fetal cell lines. Contrary to original reports, it is not “just two” babies from the 1960’s, but hundreds. On top of that new cell lines are coming on line and the research on aborted babies continues apace. The new COVID vaccines are being developed with fetal cell lines. What if we are mandated to take one of these immorally made vaccines, and without it we couldn’t “buy or sell” because we would not even be allowed in a store? Could that be the mark of the beast? I don’t think I can participate in child murder in that way, and my biggest fear is not being brave enough to pay the price of refusing it. If you wish to respond, I would be glad of it. I can document all of this (for starters you can google Stanley Plotkin deposition 1/11/18 youtube and hear it from his own mouth, the head of Wistar Institute responsible for vaccine development and heavily involved in fetal tissue research).

    • Ditto… I think for many Christians who cannot use vaccines based on fetal cell lines for the reasons you state, this is an unholy sacrament not symbolically, but literally. Just as some pro-life folk object to abortion and rightly parallel it to Chemosh/Molech worship in the Old Testament, passing children through the fire – this has potential to be an anti-Lord’s supper that the globe is forced to partake in or lose freedoms as Lynn notes.

      As there are many anti-Christs but one Anti-Christ, so there are many marks, but one Mark? I agree it’s a perennial symbol primarily (viewed across time) – tying in with Ezekiel & the positive mark of Lamb, which both refer further back to Deuteronomy – word bound on forehead and on hand etc – guiding thoughts and deeds. However, this should not rule out possible literal fulfillments or partial fulfillments (as indeed many literally bound the word on their foreheads/hands via phylacteries).

    • Yes I agree the aborted babies are used at some stage of the process of development in many vaccines and some aborted babies are still used for scientific purpose . There is a video about this on lifesite news. com and it is sickening to know that their little parts are removed before death in some instances. Even if the vaccines were safe and not a precursor of the mark of the beast I would not willingly accept it because of the fetal cell lines used. They will have to come up with one that is ethically acceptable to pro lifers and Christians before I will even consider it.

      • @chrissy At least you willing to “consider” it. Under no circumstances would I consider a pharmaceutical extraction in my body. Especially when I’m ‘told’ I could be sick…

  • This is very well written. The polar opposites you are talking about are Sunday Worship versus Sabbath Worship. This is well documented in 7th Day Adventism literature. Check David Barron Third Angel’s message channel on YouTube, Walter Veith, Doug Bachelor, Stephen Bohr, Randy Skeete, and other teachers on this subject.

    God Bless you.

    • @Vusi Mkhatshwa If the mark of the beast is about the day of worship (Sunday/Saturday), where does that leave those who don’t worship at all, let alone on which day? And if Sunday is the mark of the beast as you seek to insinuate, how does it tie up with buying or selling talked about in Revelation 13:16-17? Revelation 13:18 says let him who has wisdom count (calculate) the number of the beast for it is a number of a man, and his number is Six hundred Threescore and six (666). Now how does one calculate Sunday? Secondly how is Sunday a “number”? Notice the four instances given in the above-mentioned scripture/s to constitute the mark of the beast.

      1. Taking the mark of the beast.
      2. Or his name.
      3. Or the number of his name.
      4. Or worshipping the beast and/his image

      Now how does Sunday encompass all the above? Notice how the angel in Revelation 14:9-10 warns that once one has taken the mark, there’s no longer redemption for them? However, with Sunday or Saturday one can switch from one day to the other? Which disqualifies Sunday as the mark of the beast. Besides, the book of Revelation is prophecy, but notice how Sunday has been with us since inception? Based on these last two points, are you saying those who have been worshipping on Sunday have already been condemned?

      Lastly, Revelation 13:16-17 says people will take the mark on their right hand or forehead. So… are they gonna be scanning for Sunday on your right hand or forehead before they allow you to buy or sell? Does that even make sense?

  • Amen. Thank you for addressing this issue. My Prayer is that the frenzy will die down and that God’s people will grow in the grace and the knowledge of the Lord. Become people of the Word and people of prayer and not get caught up in the frenzy.

  • What would be the best book on revelation that I could read to help me understand it. I have read it twice and just do not understand most of it?

  • I’m glad you listened to your wife this was excellent. I’ve already had a few good discussions with people about this subject after teaching Revelation last year. I love the focus on the lamb.

  • I don’t see any Bible references in the picture.

    This is a good article to help believers have the right perspective. Th discussion about the mark of the beast is helpful.

    • Thanks for pointing this out, Jeanne. The only images of protestors with “mark of the beast” posters are under copyright, so we went with “1984” (which of course has its own implications!).

  • Beast end time conditioning society

    You are right that COVID-19 is NOT the MARK.. but the “VACCINE” has not been made yet.. a time line with lots space in between.. for many bigger events to simultaneously occur.. leading up to the STAGE of the ANTICHRIST (BEAST is the IMAGE worshipped)..

    But they ARE preparing THE WORLD for HIM.. question is.. if this SYSTEM is put in PLACE.. and you choose not to be a part of it.. so you CANNOT BUY and no one will accept a SALE from you because GOV/SOCIETY deems you dangerous/bad… will you GIVE IN and JOIN? WHY so much HATE towards the CHURCH? Shut downs and RESTRICTIONS on CHRISTIANS but VICE SHOPS can have LINE UPS?

    Revelation 13:16-18 KJV
    [16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. [18] Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

    Verse 16 – Help flatten the curve: EVERYONE join and help stop this enemy, or people may die / you are a risk / report and remove them = kids, old people, regular people, celebrities and politicians, prisoners, citizens – LOTS CHURCHES CLOSING DOORS

    Verses 17&18 – Lockdown: people CANNOT just BUY anything – what things we can cannot buy – who can SELL (stay open) who can’t (stay closed) – people losing jobs – NEEDING government handouts to “live” – what prices we can sell at – special permissions granted to “essential” people – essential jobs, everyone MUST be TESTED to go back to normal (be in society), everyone needs to be vaccinated, biometric ID to track virus. DIGITAL CURRENCY -ONYL CENTRAL ISSUANCE OF MONEY -NO SIDE MONEY OR ILLEGAL OR UNTAX MONEY AKA NO DEPOSITS OR WITHDRAWALS. Could you handle that until he comes?

    MANY OFFENDED AND HATE HEARING TRUTH OF THE END BEING NEAR – THEY LOVE THIS PLANET TOO MUCH TO LEAVE IT.. but it soon time to PICK A SIDE!

    John 16:1 KJV
    [1] These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

    John 16:12-15 KJV
    [12] I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. [13] Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. [14] He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. [15] All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

    My friends JESUS is NEAR as much as the ANTICHRIST is too! Do NOT be DISTRACTED or DECEIVED as he SAID many will say “ OH all these EVENTS have PASSED and we are STILL HERE.. he IS NOT coming/YET” for this is a LIE of SATAN! Jesus said BE SOBER AND PAY ATTENTION.. for these things MUST PASS for him to COME AGAIN!

    Research THIS as this OP and ARTICLE DENY that the COVID-19 has any connection to the BEAST.. a COMPLETE LIE!

    WHY? Because those CHRISTIANS that DO NOT and ANYONE that DOES NOT have THE MARK OF THE BEAST CANNOT BUY AND SELL – and WILL BE TRACKED AND HUNTED!

    Wait.. but you say that is just ID.. well LOOK HERE.. BILL GATES has a PATENT published in MARCH 2020.. a DIGITAL CURRENCY SYSTEM that connects and WORK WITH an IMPLANT INSIDE the HUMAN BODY.. COINCIDENCE?

    The PATENT contains the NUMBERS 666 within it PLAIN and CLEAR.. with 2020 staring at the BEGINNING!

    You see.. they can EASILY make the PATENT DATA contain the 666!

    But WAIT! They NOW have the SYSTEM to INPUT DATA into our DNA (mhm YES just like a USB drive or your cellphone MEMORY space) THUS also being able to contain the DATA BLOCK of the 666 EMBEDDED within the IMPLANT!

    The VACCINES that BILL GATES also OWNS is called a MICRONEEDLE – this “VACCINATION” process doesn’t really inject you, rather it IMPLANTS small INFARED (HEAT) dots that CONTAIN IMMUNIZATION INFORMATION aka BIOMETRIC ID IMPLANT : https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/microneedle-coronavirus-vaccine-triggers-immune-response-mice

    They also have THERMAL CAMERAS and FACE RECOGNITION also pretending to look for “fevers” but it really PICKS UP the THERMAL (HEAT) SIGNAL from the VACCINE / IMPLANTS . You see.. you WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BUY OR SELL WITHOUT THE MARK OF THE BEAST.. so they WILL find you!

It is only a MATTER of TIME.. but will you be able to WAIT a LITTLE LONGER is he decides to DELAY and BUY other TIME? That is the REAL question!

    Jesus is NOT fear but LOVE.. believe in HIM even if you STAND ALONE or of people CALL YOU CRAZY.. they did to HIM and many of HIS FOLLOWERS!

    God bless 🙂

    • Excellent CC! Yes…we are being conditioned. Everything you point out is exactly what we need to be aware of. It’s not going to be easy…with so much at stake – we should be aware how difficult things will be before this world is shuttered. I often wondered how “masses” would be so easily deceived…I don’t wonder anymore.

  • For those that are criticizing the author of this educational article, I would refer you to: https://www.openbible.info/topics/criticism I love the way the bible leads us to truth. We can learn a lot from Jesus’ words. One of my favorite verses is John 7:17 “If anyone’s will is to do God’s will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority.” If we truly want to please God, then He will let us know the truth.
    Thanks for your article, it gives great encouragement, not doom and gloom. For Jesus was also great at giving us hope and encouragement. John 16:33 33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

  • This is an interesting article, much that I agree with in this. But, the 800 pound gorilla in the room wasn’t discussed in this article. The part of CoVid 19 that has people upset and referencing the Mark of the Beast, isn’t t just the possibility of forced vaccinations, it’s Bill Gates’ digital tattoo that will be administered to track vaccinations and well, anything else that they want to track. I don’t know how you can have this discussion and omit this. As for me and my family, that’s a line we’re not willing to cross, whether it be the Mark of the Beast or not.

  • Christians really need to waken up to what is happening out there in a big bad real world , God has gave us plenty of instructions for what to watch for and be on our guard , He isn’t the author of confusion, do not take mans opinion because they might be some great scholar , seek guidance from the Holy Spirit to what is taking place
    Colossians 2:8
    8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

  • 1 Thessalonians 4:18 says to “comfort one another with these words.” The words Paul is talking about is the explanation he gives for the coming of the Lord. He does not say “scare one another.” He says “comfort one another.” Some versions say “encourage one another.” I have been perking up a bit more when I see current events and I see what chapter 24 of Matthew says. Also, I have not read about the “Mark of the Lamb” as such. The Seal of God mentioned first in Revelation 7:1-8 is for the 144,000 from the 12 tribes of Israel. That is different than the descriptions of the saints who are devoted to God and might not be from Israel by birth or otherwise. I don’t know that protesting is a bad thing done the right way. There are those who are acting by constitutional law instead of biblical law, but we must also know when defense is necessary by biblical law. For followers of Jesus Christ, we must know and do what he commanded us to do.
    As far as the rest of the book of Revelation, there is not an easy timeline that everything follows. There is an order and it is often clear what comes before what. But from observation Jesus is less interested in us knowing when and more interested in us know what we should know and how we should live by what we know. Please refer to my website as I have posted some thoughts on Matthew 24 and will post more thoughts on eschatology soon. https://wiseissachar.blogspot.com/

  • I read your article and just wanted to emphasize and inquire on this topic. You mentioned that its an illusion and it isnt real well ive got something to tell you mental illness runs through my family, they do not like GOD dont even mention him and dont believe in church or tithe I don’t disagree with them anymore about the church after my own experience going and giving money and they never help me. However as a pre teen in medical school I become wanting to do satanism and sell my self and remember as a child an encounter where I was given a little red coin purse pouch it had a little money in it and was a chines pouch I have no clue how I got it I believe from an asian kid who was my class mate in elementary school she use to sell rats at our school which is disgusting cant believe people bought them i went to a white school) . Long story short I remember making an agreement with an entity that ai regret and I do not understand why or how I as a small child would have known or had that kind of encounter. I also recall as a child a ufo outside my window it returned me home and i dont remember what happened. I do know however the cvv numbers on my bank acct are 666 and this is after wanting a replacement , my former gas and power accts numbers had 666 in them and my social has 6669 in it 6x6x6xxx9 . Everyone seems to be evil towards me and when i learned about GOD and began to like GOD eventhough my life has been horrible since birth i begun hearing evil voices narrating and commenting my life. I dont want the mark of the beast so why do thise numbers keep coming up? Why did that happen as a child? I was obsessed with money as a small child i had wallet and coin bank my uncle stole my coins to buy cigarettes i hated him so much for over 20 years i hated him until i realized wow it wasnt that big of a deal. I dont takk to my family because when i stayed with them i would here someome reading in their closet in the room to next me when im asleep and i sleep very late and felt maybe they were putting evil spirits on me they also kicked me out their house and said take those evil spirits with you. My late mom referred to my grandma as the demon lady yet she didnt raise hs and gave us to my grandma why if she was so awful and you knew? They dont care about me at all or my child in 3 years have never gave my child a bday gift christmas nothing other than baby shower gifts that were stolen from me. Now all of a sudden they want to give my daughter a used doll and are texting me that the mailed her a doll they wanted my address i refused and told them mail it to a relative nearby ill pick it up ive not picked it up you know what happens in thise evil movies with dolls lol

    signed i need help please with removing this mark i didnt ask for

  • I’m no theologian, but I think the mark will be something tangible,and it will be rationally introduced. In other words, it will make sense. As an example, China is now requiring use of an app to enter public places. It tracks the PERSON, not just some random number. Seems like a reasonable thing to require in terms of public health. Could it be that simple?

    Finally, the scriptures tell us the mark is the number of his name. An IP Address fits that description. Six hundred, three score and six. An IP Address is #.#.#.#

    Just saying…

  • Matt, I appreciate your article. Found it very helpful. I am curious about your response to Ian (buying and selling) that you mentioned later on in the comments that you responded to. I have searched for your response and cannot find it. Could you point me in the right direction? I apologize if I am completely missing it somehow.

  • “Confessing themselves to be wise they became fools” Proverbs……Look at all the other world conditions volcanos earthquakes.,school shootings ..ALL the MAJOR Church’s sexual and money scandals melting of the north and south Poles ,Global warming Opoid Crisis voilence HATRED ECT.

  • yikes you guys are lost, the beast is technology and the vaccine contains nanobots aka you get uploaded to the grid and tracked which is the first step to becoming transhuman… the fall of man kind or the mark of the beast happens many times it just happens whenever there is a huge leap in the negative direction it happened in the time of noah, babylon, and now new world order 2020… Don’t @ me you’re lost anyways have fun with your transhuman world and flying cars I won’t be here.

  • Are you going to get a microchip implant injected into your hand or forehead? I’m not!!! I’m not going to burn because you say the mark of the beast is not literal!!!

  • Do you expect us all to believe that the mark of the beast is not a literal mark? Microchip implants? What about the country of Sweden? They’re already accepting microchip implants and they cannot buy or sell without it? I’m not getting any microchip implant and not getting any mandatory vaccination!!! You really believe the devil will tell you he’s standing next to you and to follow him to hell? That would defete his goal. He’ll say he’s Jesus Christ just like the Bible says he will do and perform signs and wonders and trick even the elite! What makes you think he’s going to tell you that the microchip implants are the””mark”? He’ll tell you it’s for your own protection against identity thieves. Just like you said it’s for our”protection”. Google the microchip implants already being used for our”own protection”. God bless you. Tell everyone about the microchip implants already being used in Sweden. See if it’s controlling buying and selling there. Then tell your veiwers to Google it and then tell them microchip implants are not controlling buying and selling and that it’s not the mark of the beast. Then let them decide for themselves like the Bible says to do about the false prophets.

    • Wow! I have never seen so much crazy on one webpage! I am SO happy I am an atheist, especially after reading what all you lunatics are spewing. If you want to see a 666 mark of the beast, I suggest you pull down Trump’s underpants, I think you will find it there. I would love to hold all of you people down, and scrawl “666” all over your bodies, just for the fun of it. And guess what would happen, NOTHING! I hope you people are not breeding, and passing the crazy gene down to your kids. If I were you, I would be more concerned about the gene of the crazy than the mark of the beast. See you in Hell! Bye!

  • I am the Mark of the Beast. Want to see my immortal 666 body? yes. I want everyone to die. Russia Virus. Islamic.

  • This is all fine and good. But what do you say to the fact that Yesterday the DOD approved $138,000,000 to produce 500,000,000 Covid – 19 syringes with the option of injecting chips? That looks like enforced vaccination to me and world control.

    • I am so relieved to see that many others also agree that the mark will be physical. I find Mr. Halsted’s article very concerning. Although I agree that the “mark” cannot be taken by accident, scripture is clear that it will be something you have to take (physically) in order to buy and sell:

      “It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.” ~ Revelation 13:16-17

      As watchmen, we should clearly see that our modern-day technology (to include the technology being used for this vaccine) is the same technology the Antichrist will use for the mark. The labor pains of the end times have been increasing for the past 2,000 years (since Christ’s death and resurrection) and even more so since the rebirth of Israel, which happened over 70-years ago (on May 14, 1948). The things happening are clear signs that the end times are approaching us faster and faster.

      “Then Jesus turned to the crowd and said, “When you see clouds beginning to form in the west, you say, ‘Here comes a shower.’ And you are right. 55 When the south wind blows, you say, ‘Today will be a scorcher.’ And it is. 56 You fools! You know how to interpret the weather signs of the earth and sky, but you don’t know how to interpret the present times.” ~ Luke 15:54-56. In other words, if they were keeping up with their scripture reading than how were they not able to clearly see that their Messiah was standing right in front of them? We need to read the signs of our time and know what time it is. This is called being a “Watchman.” God didn’t give us bible prophecy to scare us, He gave us bible prophecy to prepare us.

      Mr. Halsted further said: “The sillier teachers of eschatology focus so much of their attention on endless speculations concerning the Antichrist, the ‘mark of the beast,’ etc., that I truly wonder if they think Revelation is primarily about revealing the satanic.”

      Watchmen do not consider Satan or the Antichrist “the stars of the end times.” The purpose of the book of Revelation is to reveal our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and one key way Christ reveals Himself is through prophecy. God tells us what happens before it happens so that when it happens we will know that He is God – this is part of revealing Himself to the world. Satan and the Antichrist are evil players in the end times but key players, nonetheless, so understanding their part in the end times is not only important but something God wants us to understand and be aware of that way when these things begin to happen people will say “God forewarned us about these things!” Revelation is the revealing of Jesus, which includes revealing (foretelling) the things that will happen before His Second Coming (as well as all the details about His Second Coming). The word of God tells us not to be asleep as others are, specifically in regards to the end times (1 Thessalonians 5:4-11). There is no doubt that God is trying to wake us up and shake us up to “what time it is.”

  • Great article! It’s nice to know that I’m not the only Christian who hasn’t bought into this theory of the COVID-19 vaccine being the mark of the beast. I’m
    no expert on Eschatology or a buff on the subject
    (It wouldn’t hurt for me to study up on it),but I would think that all of that takes place after the church is raptured out,and those left behind will be in the predicament of taking the mark; am I right?or am I
    missing something? I personally think that it’s conspiracy theorists talk.

  • Obviously you haven’t heard about ID2020 and the invisible digital tattoo (what without people wont be able to “sell and buy” or as the inventor of it said; going go travel,groceries, schools, work..) It is not the vaccine what makes people worry, more what comes with it.

    There are no pastors who talks about this?
    Well than listen this

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qUjNKPaQNPg&feature=youtu.be

    And those people who go out and protest, they do it for our freedom , what we are giving up right now voluntarily… to speak about them in a way you did, is like supportable anti-democrats.

    People need to wake up, but not fear!!!
    But there will be many who choose to “sleep”…

  • Please check your resources and maybe put a little less trust in them. Attached is a link for how Bills are numbered. There is no bill numbered 6666. https://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/legislative/b_three_sections_with_teasers/active_leg_page.htm
    Take a look at patents you can search by number. There is no number 060606.
    Luciferone doesn’t exist however Lucerfein luciferin and luciferase do exist and where named in the early 1900’s by Raphaël Dubois – Literally the term means light bringing from the Latin. I do not believe that there is any indication that Raphael was a satan worshiper.

  • Please explain to me how a “spiritual mark” can be detected? How can a “spiritual mark” be placed on the hand or forehead? The seal of the Spirit is a spiritual mark because it cannot be detected by any of the senses or by technology. Finally, how can someone be forbidden to buy and sell if the mark can’t be detected. Woe unto them that lead the flock astray

  • I sent this to Pastor Jack today because he’s telling the church its OK to get the vaccines ????

    Pastor Jack why can’t we be deceived into getting the mark of the beast in these vaccines? There are many hints in the Bible that the end times could be confusing. With the Corona virus, and all the bad talk about the vaccines, why would we even trust the vaccines?
    See in the bible:

    Revelation 19:20 says the false prophet deceived those that had received the mark of the beast. When asked about the end time, Christ said “take heed that ye be not deceived.”

    Revelation 20:3-4 says that those who receive the mark will be deceived.

    Revelation 13:18 says that it takes wisdom to understand the number of the beast.

    Second Timothy 3:13 tells us that evil men and imposters will wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

    Revelation 13:9 “he who has an ear let him hear” proves that you must be receptive to its message.

    Revelation 17:9 says it takes wisdom to understand the beast’s identity.

    Second Thessalonians 2:9-10 speaks of deceivableness and delusion in the end times.

    Revelation 13:14 the two horned second beast “deceiveth them that dwell on the earth” to cause them to worship the first beast.
    Christ warned (in Matthew 24:24) of an endtime false religion that if possible, would deceive the very elect.
    And there is a false prophet that issues forth spirits who will influence the kings of the earth. And men will turn to cleverly devised fables.
    Falling for deception has grave consequences today, just as it did for ADAM AND EVE.

    I was reading the rev 13:16 about the mark of the beast in a Bible ap called esword its free on the computer. It has a Hebrew dictionary attached. In that bible verse I looked up “mark” for mark of the beast its G5480. When I went to G5480 it says from the same as G5482 and It also had the word (xáragma) I Google the word
    (xáragma) see what it says. I’ll take a picture and post it below: It says 5480 xáragma – properly, an engraving (etching); (figuratively) a mark providing undeniable identification, like a symbol giving irrefutable connection between parties.

    5480 /xáragma (“brand-mark”) was originally any impress on a coin or a seal, used by an engraver on a die (stamp, branding iron). 5480 (xáragma) later became “the identification-marker” (like with an owner’s unique “brand-mark”). I’ve read that the vaccines have some sort of dye and even nanoparticals for identification. This could be in fact the mark of the beast. View it your self to see what you get.

  • It seems to me that credit card debt could also be the “mark” with the arguments that have been made.
    I feel that the author makes a grand point…let’s focus on the teachings of Christ and LIVE by them!

  • To: Matthew L. Halsted, Ph.D. Let me judge you. Let me show my righteous anger. You are an agent of Satan. You are a Bible denier. . Anyone who reads and believes the anathema you’ve scribbled here was been deceived. You are a wolf in sheep’s clothing. It’s one thing to honestly debate the role the corona virus vaccine fits in the scheme of Revelation. It is quite another thing to deny that the “Mark of the Beast”, which will be found either on the right hand or the forehead is not a literal mark or engraving. I repeat: WOE UNTO THEM WHO DECEIVE THE FLOCK>

  • Mark I think Bible has clearly indicated where it will be. And it MUST be absolutely something physical. On right hand or on a front. So you know exactly. And without it you will not be able to buy nor sale….
    Microchips are developed. And 5G radio-frequency, if used on centimeters waves has a power to change our reaction, mood etc.
    So yes, children if God has a spiritual mark. But the oppositori will have a material mark on right hand or on a front-it is only two points of human body, where the temperature is changing fast and constantly-the perfect generator of ‘life-time’ battery for little transmission – a microchip.
    Bible also says, after receiving Mark, They will do so that everyone who has mark, will worship the beast….
    Anyway, covid vaccine do not have nothing in comune, as Bible has no indication on medical reasons or conditions to receive the mark.

    • What is going to happen or is been happening we been putting on masks inorder to enter into the shops to buy or sell, it will be the same process with the Vaccine to replace the Masks, the secret society what is doing now is causing panic to the world we seeing deaths in the hospital due to Covid19 and that is exactly what they really want so that we live in fear.

      They are drawing us closer and closer unti to the real mark of the beast which will be on those that will accept the weakedness of this world.

      The real mark of the beast will happen once the Rapture has occurred, remember this will be God’s plan and it is already recorded in the book of life, for the sack of the chosen ones God will shorten the time and then He will send His Son to redeem the faithful ones.

      As of now devil and his followers can do all means, but if the time is not yet alive nothing can happen on us yet.

      Tribulation will come to those who will shall be left behind after the return of Jesus Christ.

  • Revelation 13:16-18 ESV
    “Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.”

    This pandemic has the potential of crashing our economic system. I will not say that it will happen, now. Only God knows the answer to whether or not he allos this to take place at this time, because He is sovereign!❤

  • What do you say of HR 6666
    And the new patent: WO2020060606 CYRYPTO
    CURRENCY USING BODY ACTIVITY DATA
    and the plans for that. Both are real. Odd use of number choice. Especially the second which will be a type of tattoo.

  • Ever hear about the philosophy of Gradualism? It essentially says that change happens slowly in order not to upset, anger or frighten the masses; more importantly it happens slowly and subtly so the majority of people don’t realize it is happening. That’s exactly what the COVID-19 reaction crisis reaction is. I don’t think that the Covid-19 vaccine will contain the mechanism to manifest the Mark Of The Beast. What it may do is get the large amount of people accustomed to chip implants, so when the VISIBLE ENGRAVING goes down it’ll appear as the next logical, small step giant leap. Satan to human chip implant technology, not one giant leap. Satan may walk around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour, but his paws moves slowly, gradually and stealthfully.

  • “It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.” ~ Revelation 13:16-17
    God just gave me a message through the Holy Spirit. The name of the Beast is the Chip’s trademark.

  • My two cents worth is the following:

    Rev.7:3 … sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads ( Lambs mark ) …that’s the 144,000 Jewish men, not all believers. It’s in the Bible for us all to read.

    Gen. 4:15 And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him. This mark must have been visible, right? How else would the people know not to kill him when they saw him? So then Rev. 13:17… no man might buy or sell, save he had the mark… Surely, this must be visible or detectable.
    Matt ignored to comment about this verse, even though he referenced the passage of scripture. And why put people off to wait until the next article?

    In response to the Let’s Play, Matt said ” you can’t advance God’s agenda with violence or with threats of violence.
    Matt, what do you do with the OldTestament? What do you do with Samuel and Jesus Christ?
    I Samuel 15: 33…And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the Lord in Gilgal. This was in response to Saul’s disobedience. Is it too much of a stretch to think that Samuel carried a sword?
    John 2:15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changer’s money, and overthrew the table… Jesus took the time to make a whip.

    In response to others comments Matt, you stated it was your life’s calling to ” bridge the gap” between what reputable scholars are saying and the life of local churches”. Where does God have a place in that statement?

  • Hi Kristi,

    Thank you so very much for your question. I have actually written a follow-up article that you might find helpful. Here’s the link: https://academic.logos.com/the-covid-vaccine-has-666-written-all-over-it-and-why-that-doesnt-matter-according-to-revelation/

    If you have further questions, please feel free to reach out to me again, and I’d be glad to dialogue. One thing we can know is that fear and anxiety is not from God. In Christ, we can have the utmost peace – no matter what we go through, he is with us!

  • Dude,
    I’m pretty sure that a digital record of having taken the mandatory vaccine could be the mark of the beast. “Could”! I’m not saying it is. Your article didn’t convince me either way. Your article also came across as flippant, condescending and rushed.
    Peace.

  • Viruses have come and gone. They say the coronavirus that it’s a sign that Jesus is coming. For sure that is true He is coming but I look at the condition of the world and how sinful it is. That to me is the biggest sign. If it be now or later, He is coming! There have been other viruses that killed millions. So was that a sign? Bad things happen on earth and when it does, people yell “oh Jesus is coming.” The word has to be preached in the whole world then Jesus will come. I take all with a grain of salt because people have been saying this for over 2000 years. then when He doesn’t come, they call the Christians fools. I’m waiting and I’m ready and you should be too.
    In revelations it says, on the hand or the forehead.

    • The COVID hype is a farce. Look at the CDC death numbers — all the COVID deaths have nullified the deaths for heart disease, diabetes, gun shots, car accidents. Everything has been counted as death by virus — something else is going on here.

  • I tend to also believe that the Mark will be a tangible and visible thing. Nazi Party Swastika pins come to mind. That Mark will be tied into loyalty to the State or Person who rules that State. Once again, using the Nazi analogy, the loyalty oath to Adolph Hitler. If the Mark of the Beast were invisible, or only visible to God, then no one on earth would be able to see it. How then would government functionaries, stores and other institutions even know you had it? Obviously they would have computer records of it (assuming that World War 3 leaves any functioning electronics or electrical systems operational). Liberal Theology often uses the theory of a “code of Rome” to explain Revelation away as future prophetic events.

    But one thing we need to keep in mind about Revelation is What and Who is being revealed. Revelation does prophecy future events; but Jesus Christ is Who is being Revealed; Who He is and What He is. People sometimes get carried away speculating on the symbolism found in Revelation and they make pronouncements such as this object is a Robot, or that one is a computer or a tank. These flying creatures are such and such. Revelation is also the revealing of all of human history! You actually have to keep the context of the whole Bible in mind when you examine Revelation. Pulling passages and concepts out of context creates a mush-mash of allegorical interpretation. I know of one Bible version that comments on Revelation inserting their faith’s interpretation of the Woman in the Wilderness. The literal-historical method of interpretation reveals that this Woman is none other than Israel; but this other denomination claims it’s “The Blessed Virgin Mary.” (Thus removing Israel from the picture).

    One of the biggest misuses of Revelation are people who try to claim this church or that one is “The Great Harlot.” I have no doubt that the seeds of the “Harlot” are certainly planted, but the Harlot Church, if mentioned in context, does not exist yet. Why? Because as long as there are genuine Christians still living on this earth, then the whole Church (Body of Christ) is NOT the Harlot. At least, not yet. When the Rapture occurs, there will not be a even one single Christian left on Earth! Any “church” still around after that event will not be the Body of Christ. It will be a bunch of religious unbelievers getting together to form a pseudo-church. No doubt there will be people who come to Christ during the Great Tribulation, and it is those saints who are warned to leave the Great Harlot.

    The letters to the Seven churches is also often taken out of context. Some people even build an elaborate structure of different “church ages” from these various Church locations. Laodicea is the most popular one, and, as usual, people try to make claims about this or that denomination, or “non-denomination” as a Laodicean Church and will be “left behind” when the Rapture occurs. Then they go on to imply that these “lukewarm Christians” have been or will be spit out of Jesus’ mouth; implying that they have lost their salvation and were left behind when the Rapture hits. What is troubling about this concept (on many levels) is these people are pronouncing fellow saints as “lukewarm” because they don’t get involved with this or that program in their church or denomination. It’s implied that people who don’t participate in certain activities have no zeal towards the Lord, or they are “backslidden.” The letter to Laodicea is then pointed at as “evidence” that someone has or can “lose their salvation.” Only Christians will be “Raptured.”

    If you examine what the scriptures say about the Rapture, you have to tie that in with Resurrection. That is what the Rapture truly is. Revelation has a lot to say about Resurrection! It is one of the biggest promises Jesus made to all Believers. Non-believers have Resurrection to look forward to also, but it won’t be a happy occasion for them. So, although God certainly puts a mark on the forehead of His saints, the “Man of Sin” will mark his followers, as well. and none of those followers will be tricked into it, or receive it without knowing what it is and what they are pledging to. And it won’t wash off in the Pool of Siloam, as one of the characters in Salem Kirban’s book had happen to them. It is a pledge of loyalty and worship.

    As for the Beast and False prophet, that too, has it’s historical significance. Rome was founded by two brothers Romulus and Remus. They were raised by a female wolf. No doubt the Apostles knew the story, because nearly everyone in Europe and the Middle East had heard it. Basically, John is revealing to us that this future world leader and his prophet would be born and be nourished a dragon/serpent, much like the founders of Rome; an old name for Satan himself. See how you have to bring the whole Bible in as context for the Book of Revelation? In the Old Testament a group known as the Sabeans was mentioned. That is where Romulus and Remus and Rome came from. Already, Isaiah is telling his readers that this minor people group would grow into so much more; as did the Book of Daniel. Daniel was written well before his prophecies were fulfilled, so that secular-humanist lie is dispensed with. That is a claim often made by liberal theology; that prophetic Bible books were written after the prophecies were fulfilled. That has NEVER been true…

    • The evil that has happened in the past is truly a foreshadowing of the worst tyrant the world will ever know – the Antichrist. The days are getting more and more evil. For example, Hitler certainly fit the bill, but he clearly was a foreshadowing, which means the Antichrist will be a Hitler times a million. Our modern-day technology is already mega advanced and readily available for when the Antichrist comes to power so he will have the ability to control the people in ways Caeser and Hitler couldn’t even dream of. In the book of Revelation, John was told what would happen at the end times. In other words, he was told how the world would look right before Christ’s Second Coming. God didn’t give us bible prophecy to scare us, He gave us bible prophecy to prepare us.

      I think scripture is clear that the mark will be physical, and I do agree that a person cannot accidentally take the mark. When the time comes, the people will know that they need it to buy and sell, and that they will have to pledge their allegiance to the Antichrist. The word “forced” in Revelation 13:16-17 doesn’t mean you will be held down by force and/or tricked into taking it – it literally means you will be forced to make a choice, but if you choose to not take it, you will be killed:

      “I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years” – Revelation 20:4.

      • I think that passage Rev 20:4, people will be converted to Christ and will die during the tribulation. If you don’t take the mark, you can’t buy or sell. There is no immediate death. Now, not worshiping the “image of the beast” that this false prophet gives live to, you will be killed. That is clear.

        Revelation 13:15, KJV: “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” … Then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die.”

        Some theories, this “image” will be some kind of AI that will have some tap into the worlds population to know if this “image” is being worshiped. It is going to know. This remains to be seen.

        I totally agree with your post.

        • No, not really. for those that are left alive as in some don’t worship the beast and won’t die. so no it’s not that clear that all who refuse to worship will die it should die but not that they will.
          There are or will be people who don’t worship the beast nor take his name or a number and not die.
          it’s clear when it says those who remain are yet alive will be caught up into the air to be with the lord.
          and no I totally disagree with the article for he’s misleading people into a lull.
          if he’s taught that Romans 13 means to obey govt then yes he’s one of the false prophets!
          I’m assuming since most churches have taught that so yeah!

      • Antichrist is here already he’s mankind.
        Antichrist is also a replacement for God in which mankind fits that bill and has since Jesus died. at least and before then.

        The church itself now has done that as well when it has taught that Romans 13 meant to obey man’s secular govt.

        1a) leave or permission
        Christians through wrongful teaching have probably been complacent in many more millions of people being
        killed through wrongful interpretation as meaning were to obey Govt. and then oking it when a cop
        kills using that scripture and its wrongful interpreted translation.
        Exousia meant liberty not power and them using it wrongfully are just as complacent and as wrong as cops are
        when they kill like they have done and recently too.
        revelations 17 says he will input into their hearts/minds to give their power unto the beast/Govt until the word of god is fulfilled. Teaching Romans 13 meant power does this.

  • I appreciate the article… but think there is a balance… in that people are being controlled by misinformation which is being used to take freedoms away. The news people are merely reading the newswire and programming us. The numbers, inflated as they are, are lower than the projections.

    I don’t know that people protesting with weapons were making a connection between covid and they mark of the beast. If so, guns aren’t going to help. But if having weapons shows that we will fight for freedom, well, then I get it.

    I don’t think the concern is that somehow a vaccine is the mark… but the more you get in lines like sheep, the easier it will be to take the mark – whether it be a physical mark or belief, or whatever it refers to.

  • The “Mark” is required by the false prophet. That is clear. It is some type of mark received.

    Revelation 13:16, NLT: “He required everyone–small and great, rich and poor, free and slave–to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead.”

    It is a requirement for people to receive. It will be issued in mid-rule of the antchrist. You are leaving out a lot of context to promote an opinion. According to Scripture, the antichrist will come to power and have this “false prophet” with him. Being a false prophet would denote some type of religious figure. Since the antrichrist is about “worship” setting himself up in the temple will cause people to receive this mark.

    I think Scripture speaks for itself. it says, you don’t take it, you can’t buy or sell.

    • not really and nowhere in Revelations is antichrist used. Beast is used and its Govt. It’s no more clear than beasts used in scripture are Govt.
      He is being a false prophet though by teaching falsely. But also making a false statement of it has to be or more likely something you can buy or sell.
      That’s inherently wrong, to begin with. Scripture says if you don’t worship/Obey for one meaning of worship is to obey
      the beast then you can’t buy or sell. not something to be bought or sold.

  • Fear? Why give into it. Our God is able to take care of us. My daughter called me and said you better get to the store and get some food because it’s going fast. So at 8:00PM at the age of 84 going out to the store. Had my cart ready to load up like everyone else. Standing there wondering what should I get. The Lord spoke to my heart and said, “you don’t have to load up, haven’t I always taken care of you.” That is so true as I remembered back at the times He was there by my side. Trust in the Lord and you’ll have no fear.

    When it comes time for the mark of the beast there will be no doubt in your mind. From what I understand, first you will have to deny Jesus Christ, and except the devil. If you don’t they will kill you. Death would be a blessing because what kind of life would you have after denying Jesus. The guilt would be horrific.

    Yea, though I walk
    through the valley of the shadow of death,
    I will fear no evil:
    for thou art with me;
    thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

  • Rev 18: 23

    And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. 24And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

    Sorceries = pharmakeia=pharmaceuticals. No buying/selling. If people go nuts enough and force vaccinations at some point in time due to the fear this event unlocks or in this itsef, oh yes. The beast system is this world.

    People have to put on the clothing, take the shots for their work. It’s a small step to force whatever they want onto everyone for the “greater good” and sadly to some applause as many people are w/o God enitrely and lost to fear.

    I saw a good thing on youtube. All of this We are in this together. To get her, the bride of christ. That’s all of us lukewarms. The symbolism on anything medical and what it traces back to, it’s more than enough for me to say I hope it doesn’t come to this but if it does I’m choosing Christ and not taking that if I lose everything for it.

    I don’t KNOW. But my eyes aren’t closing and I’m not eager to be deceived and buddy up with the beast. When you see mandatory,forced, it’s enough. I don’t care what your stances are regarding vaccines, it’s not a vaccine issue, it’s those words. Those possibilities. God made you free. It’s very much the beast that uses words like that. Lies such as the greater good.

    Also it’s not going to be great medicine for you either. Festering sores to break out for those who take the mark. Does it make more sense a chip/tech does that, or some souped up Chimeric DNA vaccine everyone is forced to take for the greater good?

    Evil doesn’t come up and say hi. I’m the devil, choose me. By the grace of God it drops hints and in some ways is forced to tell you the truth. The world sure is in this to-get-her.

  • Thank you for these two helpful articles. But now, after reading some of the comments I understand why your dear wife had to encourage you to speak sensibly and publicly about these matters. The Bible verse that comes to my mind is…” but men loved darkness instead of light…” John 3:19 Probably a good bet that not many of the commentators belong to a solid Bible teaching local church body and most of their ‘wisdom ‘ comes from the Internet.

  • […] heard rumors that a potential COVID-19 vaccine could be the mark of the beast in Revelation. Here’s a helpful article dispelling myths and reminding us all of the biblical truth that JESUS […]

  • if u know ur Bible u realize that under this scenario Bill Gates is the False Prophet proposing the mark and it is the antichrist who will enforce it upon the people, none other then ur boy Trump. u are ignorant but u have faith heed my words and u will b forgiven.

    • Eric you want us to have faith in your words? Not the way you communicate! You sound like you have low IQ! And President Trump isn’t your antichrist either but YOU are the one who sounds ignorant.

    • Ian, John was writing to that generation and warning them. Governments are evil, and Satans main tool to deceive and control people. The good news is that Gods Kingdom is already at work here, and we should be looking at the Sermon on the Mount, not Rev 13 so much

  • I’ve loved Jesus for almost 50 years and have tried daily to serve him as a RN and retired. If I were a betting person my money would be on Dr. Halsted because we have to make a conscious choice to be wicked or righteous; God doesn’t look for ways to dupe us or trip us up. God told us, “The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7. That’s pretty clear. Let’s focus on Serving JESUS CHRIST and everything else will fall into place. Remember Matthew 6:25-27.

  • If Jesus is the great physician, why do any of us need a vaccine?

    When he says o’ye of little faith, he is certainly talking about our generation.

    Vaccines are what they are right now, however we are heading down another road where they are talking about quantum tab tattoos. This technology can be expanded upon to include not only vaccines a person has, but any other digital info they want to put in it. Bill gates plan is to use quantum tab tattoos for this version of COVID19 (certificate of vaccination identification is the real meaning and 19 stands for AI , first and 9th letter of the alphabet).

    If they want to vaccinate us, why not stick to a vaccine, why do they have to have any kind of digital information in a persons body? Put it on a card.

    Putting a chip into a person, or what we are looking at now with quantum tattoos dehumanizes a person and treats them like cattle.

    If that is what you want, by all means compromise with the beast.

    • Yea, true it’s the bill gates Quantum dots vaccine. If our God is for us then nothing can stand against us. I don’t fear the Beast. God has all authority over our bodies and souls in hell. “And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” Mathew 28: I fear only God. I thought this would happen in a time more like the times of Sodom and Gomorah. I am not in noway going to give all authority to the evil mark to buy a loaf of bread. Holding on to Faith hope and love in God. All praise belongs to our one only true God. God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. Blessings.

  • Rev. 12:3-4,12:7-9 The Han race R descended from the red dragon (Mandarin, Dragon’s tongue). Sickness and death come from Satan! Ergo the Han R Satan’s people!!

    • He is not, Alan. All these doom and gloom theories make for great discussion much to the devils delight, but more focus is given to Gates and Trump than Christ. The Word of God is Jesus Christ not the bible.

  • But one thing writer is forgetting is that the new vaccines being tested are mRNA DNA these be vaccines change your DNA and teach your body to produce the virus.

    So could a DNA vaccine fall under a type of mark of beast because it changes your DNA?
    Bible says once you receive mark of beast you can’t be saved maybe this could also include
    taking DNA vaccines that alter your DNA cause once DNA changes you have altered
    how God created you and salvation may no longer be biblical achievable given your DNA has been changed

    In my opinion there will be many flavors of the mark of the beast as told in Revelation

    1. The beast name
    2. The number of the beast name
    3. The mark of the beast

    so a DNA vaccine could be another flavor of the mark of beast like paganism.

  • Bill gates registered the vaccine number as 2020 060606 (take away the 0’s and see that it is 666)

    He is part of the devil’s plans.

    Open your eyes and give Lord praise and ask him to send his Holy Spirit to guide you.

    Another thing, The computer in Sweden that is in control of all the data for the RFID chips is called “The Beast” Computer. This is in plain sight.

    Hosea 4:6 (My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…)

  • BS to the whole article to lull us to sleep by be at ease remarks and twisted scriptures to accept things as ok by one that more likely follows the beast anyhows by shutting down his doors when the beast spoke, to begin with.
    notice how I use spoke as in cause it to speak…?
    The mark of the beast is serious business and isn’t to be toyed with unless that’s this guy’s agenda to swoon you into accepting the mark or something. He doesn’t even know for sure with language that says it’s most likely etc…
    Why can’t the mark be the vaccine and or being tested if to do so means you do it or you can’t buy or sell. Meaning you can’t go to Mcdonalds or your favorite restaurant no more without having taken it and means you worshiped the Beast or Govt.
    They’re doing it now if you haven’t heard they’re called COVID 19 contact tracers. And if even if you can refuse to tell the person who you are and your info to the state may sanction you until you do comply.
    meaning you won’t be able to go outside other than your yard and or town to buy or sell unless you have this vaccine and or been tested. At first, I believed Trump when he said it will be impossible to get almost 350 million
    people to comply I’m not so sure now, with this guy telling you all it’s ok don’t worry be happy now!!!
    I don’t know either for sure I have some implications using scripture but with scripture twisting and turning it is hard to know for sure. All say God wants us to know for he wouldn’t give such a dire warning if he didn’t but how the heck
    are we when as I said scripture twists and turns just about the time you think you got it pinpointed it turns on
    you etc… Point is all you are now lulled to sleep have a warm fuzzy now and more likely will receive the mark now due to this guy’s comments. From all the comments like Glory be finally some common sense etc…
    OMFG, you kidding me he can’t be more wrong since the mark is obeying Govt anyhows. And more likely his church closed their doors as the Beast told him so anyhows.
    Romans 13 never said to obey secular Govt. It said to obey the higher Liberty as in Liberty not power.
    Meaning the word power from Romans 13 is translated from the word Exousia and is verifiable here:

    MR. False prophet would have you believe otherwise.
    Yes, they are contrasted by each other as in who do you obey man of God.
    Man’s Govt or God’s. and yes the important thing is to gain the victory but you don’t gain victory without some knowledge.
    Beasts are by almost all I have heard or read are all Govt’s beasts are man’s creation hence the water beast.
    It scripture says the water beast meaning the beast that comes out of the water Water beast is nations peoples and tongues, not EU nor Middleast not centered around there anyhows but all Nations peoples and tongues as
    in languages that people speak as in the whole world hence 7 heads 7 continents!
    so the water is the sea of politics and what we as mankind have created. He knows of none as in what the first one or two sentences that say he knows of no church that thinks the vaccine could be the mark that’s because he and they are the false prophets. They have lied to you all especially about Romans 13.
    as I have tried to clear the air about as in deceived the whole world. For marvel not for satan himself has been changed into an angel of light. As in he’s taken on twisting and teaching scripture as in he’s a minister now!
    NO, I don’t say the vaccine is but not sure it isn’t. for anything that can get you sanctioned
    against in order to not being able to buy and sell will have to be but that and may just come by them saying if you
    don’t have a cell phone and can’t provide for this business all your contacts as in contact list and or peoples
    names addresses and phone numbers and or your vaccine number or ID number you cant come in.
    My god people think Damn.
    Not sure but immortality which is one of the gifts God gives at his coming is or should be important and you won’t get it if you listen to his drivel.
    he may even tell you were not int the tribulation for the rapture hasn’t happened yet and that’s false.
    No set of people are going to disappear nor will there be a third brick and mortar temple for we are that temple not just our bodies but as in a whole we are the living stones that make up that third temple
    and fulfills 2nd Thessalonians.
    research it will ya!
    damn people are so gullible just because he says it ok don’t fear yea were to not have a spirit of fear but scripture also says my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge, for most people don’t research things for themselves damnit!

  • blah blah above with the evangelists have debunked omfg again they’re the false prophet! that’s why they’re trying to say they debunk it, My god
    I proved my statement by saying Romans 13 didn’t mean to obey secular Govt it meant to obey God not man.

  • Here just some incite for one of the comments above. God does look on the inside which is where the holy spirit lives. and is probably another scripture falsely used as well.
    But since the devil can’t see inside he may have to see on the outside and masks do this. Masks show who you obey God or man. The mark maybe not so much the mask but who your obeying man of God that is. The (man)/antichrist) may make you wear one God won’t.
    (The man)/antichrist) may make you get a vaccine God won’t.
    The (man)/antichrist) and Govt may sanction you God won’t.
    God gives you a promise of immortality and even if Satan can make us all into cyborgs later on it won’t be natural.
    Daniel 2 vs 44 says in the days of these kings he/ God will smite the image/Idol man-made object with a stone uncut
    by man’s hands not man-made on the foot and break to pieces all these Govts and leave not to man no more.
    can I help him though I hope so for that’s what all this is to show just how or where the image and by his word the stone is to come? meaning the stone is his word but it’s his truth as well and I sure hope I am helping not hindering his coming.
    point is if you believe that through man we’re to get heaven on earth your wrong for if so were screwed.
    I can’t imagine a worse hell than having mankind at charge forever!

  • The Mark of the Beast (Beast is symbolic for a kingdom like in Daniel 7), is the mark of the ecclesiastical authority for the last day kingdom that was foretold to come in many parts in the Holy Bible, in particularly Daniel 2 about the statue of a man with feet mix with iron and miry clay, Daniel 7 about the 4th beast with teeth of iron and a little horn coming up among the horns which plucked up 3 horns.

  • As a christian born again i don`t concur with so called christian scholars, theology cannot work together with true biblical teachings. Theology compromise with the World governments to oppress the true believers, I am writing from Africa in Namibia, but our government is using Police and the army to force us to wear Masks and be sanitized. None is speaking of a True living God , none want to involve the sovereign God into this Pandemic. The Devil will not tell you that what the vaccine contains is 666, the bible says we must be vigilant , because this will make every one to bow down to the beast, small and big , rich and poor, black and white, all nations will bow down to it. Only the few chosen ones will be saved. Let us unite and resist so called vaccine.

  • With so many resources available through LOGOS it is surprising that so few use them to interpret this text. The early Church writers saw this as following not just the words as we might understand them today but in light of the biblical type of antichrist, of Antiochus Epiphanes, who set up statues to himself and demanded that he be worshipped by burning incense to him.

    The emperors (1st century and post-biblical) would imitate this exactly, requiring incense (the hand) and oaths/belief (the mind or head). The Antichrist of the end will also do these things, which believers, Jew and Christian, cannot do. Most Christians will do it (the great apostasy).

    To get to this point we will be required to violate our consciences by government many times. This may well include being required to use unethical vaccines (such as those developed on an aborted fetal tissue substrate). They will be grave sins and symptoms of our moral rot, but not apostasy itself. That will be direct and evident, as during the Greek and Roman persecutions. We won’t have to guess that we are denying Christ; we will do so freely – as the early apostates did.

  • This piece, COVID-19 and The Mark of the Beast by Matthew L. Halsted is a good write up. We should study the Book of Luke 21:7-36. Jesus Christ told them about the signs of the last days. COVID-19 is one of the major signs concerning pestilence to come. Ps 91:3 called it the noisome pestilence. God said He will deliver us from it. This means that if peradventure, you are tested positive to COVID-19, it cannot kill you if your faith is in Jesus Christ. COVID-19 is just an awakening to the sleeping Christians. The mark of the beast is not a physical mark but it will be implanted in the forehead or the right hand according to Rev 13:16-17 “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”. It might come in form of a chip that can be detected by an electronic device. You cannot get the mark by default or by chance. You will willingly receive it either easily or by force. This mark can only be activated as the mark of the beast after the rapture. But it is clear that preparation has been made already. The mark will have no spiritual meaning before the rapture. It can only have meaning after the rapture. COVID-19 pandemic has shown how easily the world can be controlled by one government. The world is fast becoming a global village. A pandemic that started in China, in less than six months, it has reached all the part of the world. It is a big opportunity for Christians to share the good news about the second coming of Jesus and the rapture that will precede it. Once more, concerning the mark of the beast and last days. Everyone is working unknowingly to achieve the goal of the antichrist. You can even be the one to prepare the chip and you are rapture leaving others behind. Jesus Christ must go to the cross, and everything worked out for him to go to the cross because it has been written. Every spoken word and written word of God must surely come to pass. Water Baptism is both symbolic and spiritual, giving your allegiance to God. The mark of the beast will also be symbolic and spiritual. It is the world system. So, it will be physical and spiritual. Knowledge shall increased with imaginable discoveries and scientific expansion. Watch out for what 5G can do. Almost everything is now store in the cloud. Data and packets can be transferred over many distance in the cloud without seeing it with our eyes. Remote control, cloud computing, internet of things and everything going on the internet. These are just many gadgets put in place to monitor the second coming of Christ. But all these shall fail. My advice to everyone is just to go with the first flight, which is the rapture. Every other thing is secondary. Watch and pray. We have to know the signs of the last days. COVID-19 is a major sign.

  • It is indeed true that what is going on in the world now is beyond human control and only God can handle it through the Holy Spirit. Satan is a copycat, internet is good but its intention is to imitate the Holy Spirit , to be everywhere at the same time but it has failed to do this, Radio , TV frequency is another imitator of God who is the Omnipresent, the Frequencies and Satellites can fail and go off but God is the same yesterday , today and forevermore, internet keeps changing, God does not change as technology. The microchip / 666 mark will not have the same effects as the Holy Spirit , it will fail, God never fails, once this happen God will rapture his people and the remaining ones under the control of the beast will be destroyed in the lake of fire. A Human being can not control another Human being via technology , only God can do that via His Omnipotent, Omniscient Power, we are the image of God and not the image of Bill Gate or whoever wants to control God`s creation.

  • This is so timely, as last night I was asked on the same topic, with the conversation following below. You can see that our answers are in considerable agreement:

    (Questioner) So what about this COVID-19 vaccine that could have trackrrs in the serum to track you, what about this chip they are wanting people to have in order buy and sell or go about daily life.

    Paul Hazen Fausnight ~
    That–such things as implanted microchips–has absolutely nothing to do with Revelation. In that prophecy, symbolic language is used to represent SPIRITUAL matters. Nothing is to be taken literally, not numbers, symbols, or anything. It is all symbolic. The righteous (the complete number of the redeemed symbolized by numbers representing wholeness or totality and multiplied together for final emphasis: 12X12X1000) have the seal of God upon their foreheads–meaning the imprint of the Christlike nature by the Holy Spirit upon their spirits. Likewise but in opposite fashion, those who give their allegiance to false religion, rather than to God`s revealed word, have the mark of that false religion (loyalty to it rather than to God`s word) stamped on their spiritual natures, to their final destruction. In that false religious system, they are not allowed to do anything unless they subscribe to its tenets and authority and give it their loyalty. These are those who say–when presented with truth from the word of God–I have my own religion. They bear the mark of the beast, false religion.

    (Questioner) so it isnt a mark of anything if we have to take that chip…doesnt the Bible speak of that?
    If you take that chip, you will forfeit being a christian?
    sorry for the crazy questions, I’m just confused.

    Paul Hazen Fausnight ~
    Not at all, C…..; those are perfectly good questions! In fact, there are many who need to know what you are asking.

    No, accepting or refusing a microchip, vaccine, or any such thing has absolutely nothing to do with being a Christian or anything affecting one`s soul/spirit. Revelation in its entirety is symbolic with meanings in the spiritual world. To take things literally would be to miss entirely its meaning.

    Of course, the words of Jesus through his angel in the first three chapters and the last chapter and few verses before it are to be taken at face value as given, although mixed with some symbology. So we can know, as he said, that `nothing impure or unclean can enter…` and so on.

  • Like many others here I was also too focussed on the vaccinations etc I read the following page and I would like to ask the author if he may have time to read and give his opinion on it. It spoke too true to me. What would be more appealing to entice the world to follow the antichrist. A vaccine that will cure your ill. Or promise of a life of peace, a debt free existence etc… https://therayfield.com/the-mark-of-the-beast-is-not-what-you-think?fbclid=IwAR3GpxjGBznlrT2R8QBKrRBcyNVl9waA1xAbj1PUcsnaEQZbnxwl2HvORY4

  • Corona (virus) translates literally to “crown”. The Chinese leader recently stated that he let the USA…drown in a “sea of corona”, after President Trump stated that China would pay dearly for releasing the virus and not notifying the rest of the world what was going on. Also China has been associated throughout history with “the Dragon”
    as a symbol of power and strength.

    This outbreak has caused panic throughout the world and almost destroyed economies. Business has been locked down in this country and has led us to the brink of collapse. The left has picked up on this tragedy and is milking it for all it’s worth. Forcing people to stay away from each other, closing churches and synagogues, causing anger and doubt among society and I suspect helped to ignite the Floyd (death) riots that are literally burning the inner cities. The police are hampered in their attempts to stop it due to weak leaders who are more than willing to sit back and watch it all happen

    They want to dismantle our local and state police departments leaving a lawless society.

    The scriptures tell a tale of a “hero or savior” who would come to power as a result of all of the chaos and unite the people. A deceiver. I’m certain as a result, a National police force would be ushered in with everyone’s enthusiasm to end the discourse.

    China is bent on world domination and allies itself with other like minded “evil” police states and has indicated recently their resolve to engage in war to protect its interests.

    It’s not a far stretch to see this go worldwide. A one world government. Because of a virus. A (savior) arrives, lies and unites. All would be amazed at his capabilities and would probably idolize him.

    The rest is written in “the Book of Revelation.”

  • If you look at information on the “beast”, it sounds like the UN. The second beast is most likely to be WHO. Gates puts a lot of money into WHO and has a huge influence there. A whole lot of people will be likely coming in to get their vaccination equipped with the tracking mechanism. These people will then be free to buy & sell in the market, happy with their cells becoming mRNA factories, to eventually building cancer cells (ulcers). They will be praising these organizations for saving them from covid-19.

    Looking the bowls of wrath being poured out, it looks like the fourth bowl was poured. It’s much bigger than just the verses for the mark of the beast. Whether or not I’m right, I’m ready for the tribulation. I pray for everyone to be ready too.

    1 Thessalonians 5:3 – For when they shall say, Peace and safety (or Peace and security); then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

  • Very informative, however regarding ” can not advance god’s agenda with violence”, by saying that we forget that Samson was a man chosen by god. Samson was a very violent man.
    Noah, who was also chosen by God later put a curse on his son’s son over a comment made by his son. Sure many people in history had used God’s words to provoke evidence against personal enemies wittingly, but we should not put it pass that God works in mysterious ways. A cop who shoots a man dead carrying a jacket bomb and a machine gun about to unload into a crowd before he reaches there is definitely an act of violence no matter how you look at it, but still its saving many more lives.

  • Hello People, no more ideas, just the end of this world is coming fast… ”
    look at,(Reve.13: 16) And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:”

    ” And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”
    (Rev. 13: 17).
    if so people we still waiting for only this day, that’s no far away. the security society will adjust everything through unbelievable ways..

    Alfa And Omega will never let u down. Jesus will save us.

    Be remember about this one again.

  • ‘The covid-19 is not the mark of the beast` is an excellent article at watchman1948.wordpress.com

  • Let’s think for a moment about what the vaccine pedlars are saying… essentially they are saying that a covid vaccine is going to be the saving of the world.

    NO!

    Jesus Christ is The Saviour of the world.

  • Unless you consider that blind faith is a form of “worship” and “loyalty” is expressed as trust, then you could say that people that rely and trust the medical establishment which of course is resented by the Caduceus symbol which could be 666 if you look at it sideways, then this could imply that those that get the vaccine for the china virus as having the mark of the beast.

  • What is God doing? The narrative of God, and therefore the only real story unfolding, is about His Word, His people, and His kingdom on earth. Always watch what is going on in/with His church (the guardians of His Word), to evaluate the times. (And, yes the end is near, because He is here)
    (John 1:10)(Rev 3:3)(Luke 24:15-16)

  • The great scientist and Biblical scholar Sir Isaac Newton woud certainly take exception to the assertion that the mark of the beast is probably not an actual visible mark. Revelation 13 is very clear and very pointed on this matter. It is one of the least ambiiguous scriptures in end times prophecy. I would urge caution here. Moreover, most of the entire Christian world still hasn’t realised that Daniel 12: 11 was fulfilled when the daily sacrifice was taken away due to the Coronavirus pandamic when all the churches were closed. Thia is major. How does most of the Christian world miss this? Ref “Instead of Blocking Italy they have Blocked the Mass” in Church Militant publication.

  • I don’t fear the beast I only fear God!“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” Mathew 28: God has all authority of our body and our soul. All souls belong to God. The mark is definitely an action by us that we will bend over backwards and do anything like to be able to buy or sell and no one can do it without the the evil mark. I choose to starve and die than to go grocery shopping. I trust God. He is for us. He is never against us. So I walk down a dark hallway with nothing but bare feet and faith. Praise God. He is our only Savior. No mask will ever save us. I am a witness to that!

  • It is all about worship, who one worships. Allegiance, who one puts their trust and allegiance in, God or the beast and the beast system of government.
    Does one trust God to feed and protect them or the government to feed and protect them?
    Being able to buy and sell is AFTER you’ve shown your allegiance to the beast government system.
    It is like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, when the government told them to bow to the image when they heard the music, they refused and were punished by the government for not showing their allegiance to that government.
    Just as certain Chaldeans accused them like so your friends, neighbors and even your family members will turn on you and rat you out to the beast government system if you refuse to show your patriotic duty.
    No need to speculate or listen to all these popular preachers, teachers proclaim their pet theories, if it involves worship, allegiance, trust in a government system, don’t do it.
    I know it is easier said than done when it comes to buying and selling, feeding your family, having a roof over your head, maintaining your automobile, without that government id whatever form it may take no one will do business with you. Your landlord, public utilities, garbage collection, bank, etc will all require proof that you worshiped or pledge your allegiance to the beast system of government or they will not do business with you.
    I also know that the vast majority of professed believers believe they will not be here to contend with the beast and false prophet, better study that belief more closely, when you listen to and believe these preachers and teachers you are putting your trust and faith in them no what scripture actually declares.
    The whole world being deceived is not just by the beast and false prophet, but also by supposed Christian preachers and teachers.
    When asked by his disciples in Matthew 24 what would be the sign and time of his coming, the first thing Jesus warned them is “take heed that no man deceive you”.

  • Do not be afraid; be joyful in the Lord and be ready – The last days began on the day of Pentecost; almost 2000 years have expired since then!
    How close is this day?
    Rev 19:7 “Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”
    Therefore:
    Luk 21:36 Keep awake then and watch at all times [be discreet, attentive, and ready], praying that you may have the full strength and ability and be accounted worthy to escape all these things [taken together] that will take place, and to stand in the presence of the Son of Man.

  • The mark of the beast is a visibke brand on tge hand or forhead similar to how we brand cattle. The brand as a way to determine whether you have been vaccinated or not against cv19 has been proposed already and is in plan to be enforced by law in EU by 2022.

  • Your assertion that the mark would be “most likely a spiritual, non-visible mark” doesn’t make sense. If this were the case, why would the text specify that the mark would be on the forehead? In fact, what some are saying about MAGA caps being worn by those loyal to Trump, who is the closest thing to an antichrist figure I’ve ever seen, is more logical than the mark being non-visible.

  • While I love Jesus and agree He is the focus of EVERYTHING, the poor souls who will be deceived by and have to live in the time of the antichrist are to be deeply pitied and should be warned so they can be saved from it. If you can read Revelation and consider it mostly symbolic, you are playing right into the hands of Satan. He wants nothing more than for people to be placated and thinking he isn’t all that real nor are the events of Revelation. Revelation is well understood by many excellent theologians of this generation and to me that is a sign of the times since God gave prophecy as a warning to those who live within the time frame of its being fulfilled. Big picture people see patterns in the world or the larger realm long before the average person. They are often made fun of until the patterns turn into reality. Many evangelicals are seeing patterns that fit what might occur prior to the end times. We saw how fast terrorism and this pandemic changed government and people and the absolute rampant spread of lawlessness. We know technologies are already here to make a “mark of the beast” and the information systems to support it. We are seeing the ancient players line up (as modern nations) against Israel and Christians. We should be watching and warning others as Christ intended for us to do.

  • You lost me when you assumed the phrase “unholy sacrament” was an oxymoron. Sacramentum is the swearing or affirmation of an oath with a fixed and understood punishment for breach. We stole the word from hedonistic practices, so if anything: “holy sacrament” is the oxymoron.
    Incidentally, while I agree that covid doesn’t bring Beastial connotations, this brings me to my main problem with the article. A sacramentum was not a secret thing or a simple attitude. It was always public, and involved outward show. During WWII, several countries engaged in sacramentum during their salutes. We engage in sacramentum when we publically state our truthfulness in court. (That is the reason some servicemen/women and jurors/witnesses won’t “swear” but instead are given the ability to “affirm”) Sometimes it was that of a blood oath, which would leave a physical mark. I find it hard to believe that the mark of the beast is a private thing, or an attitude or something that might get ignored. How else will the other mark bearers know how to engage in commerce? No, the mark of the beast will someday be very outward and public. You won’t accidentally find that you’ve taken the beast on you either, because again a sacramentum is sworn knowingly and outwardly for a specific purpose, and again the punishment for breach is acknowledged and fixed.

  • The 4 oldest records of the Revelation text all have the number of the beast as SIX HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN. (The 666 is a deception.) C(100)+O(0)+V(5)+I(1)+D(500)+1+9=616 And yes, both Roman and Arabic numerals were in use in Greece when the seer saw what we would experience in these last days. The mark is indeed what they intend to inject, implant or tattoo everyone with. It’s the ENTIRE reason for the plandemic. And if you allow it, you demonstrate that you worship worldly authority & physical things (this so-called “life”). When we are unable to buy food and/or they cause anyone who will not receive the mark to be killed, you will have to choose what you truly value and hold sacred. If “no reputable biblical scholar” is aware of this, well like it says – everyone will be deceived, even the elect if that were possible (it’s not).

  • God rested on the seventh day and blessed it and made it holy, calling it a “perpetual sign” between him and His people. It was to be a symbol of His authority as Creator. He did not give anyone authority to change the Sabbath from the seventh day to the first, nor did He change it Himself. Had He done so, he surely would have told us somewhere in Scripture, however, there is no such notice of a change. Jesus and the disciples kept the seventh day, even after the resurrection, and nowhere in Scripture do we find that He changed the day God established to another. The early church never recognized the first day as the Sabbath either. That came as late as the fourth century, when Constantine legalized it and the Pope then confirmed it. [See the following excerpt from “Who Changed the Sabbath to Sunday”]

    “When Emperor Constantine I—a pagan sun-worshipper—came to power in A.D. 313, he legalized Christianity and made the first Sunday-keeping law. His infamous Sunday enforcement law of March 7, A.D. 321, reads as follows: “On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed.” (Codex Justinianus 3.12.3, trans. Philip Schaff, History of the Christian Church, 5th ed. (New York, 1902), 3:380, note 1.)

    The Sunday law was officially confirmed by the Roman Papacy. The Council of Laodicea in A.D. 364 decreed, “Christians shall not Judaize and be idle on Saturday but shall work on that day; but the Lord’s day they shall especially honour, and, as being Christians, shall, if possible, do no work on that day. If, however, they are found Judaizing, they shall be shut out from Christ” (Strand, op. cit., citing Charles J. Hefele, A History of the Councils of the Church, 2 [Edinburgh, 1876] 316).

    Cardinal Gibbons, in Faith of Our Fathers, 92nd ed., p. 89, freely admits, “You may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we [the Catholic Church] never sanctify.”

    Again, “The Catholic Church, … by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday” (The Catholic Mirror, official publication of James Cardinal Gibbons, Sept. 23, 1893).

    “Protestants do not realize that by observing Sunday, they accept the authority of the spokesperson of the Church, the Pope” (Our Sunday Visitor, February 5, 1950).

    “Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change [Saturday Sabbath to Sunday] was her act… And the act is a mark of her ecclesiastical authority in religious things” (H.F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons).

    The Catholic Church claims that “the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact” (Catholic Record of London, Ontario Sept 1, 1923).

    What a shocking admission!”

  • Why are my comments being disallowed when I’m filing in all the required fields?

  • “reputable biblical scholars and theologians”

    That would be hilarious if it was not so deadly serious.

    “reputable biblical scholars and theologians” who are all sold out to the NWO and the beast system itself whoring themselves for money and advancement just as Scripture tells us happens.

    They are all liars pointing us in the wrong way.

    all shills for Satan

    Remember, people, what the “reputable biblical scholars and theologians” of his day did to Jesus Christ.

  • temperature taking seems to be a prelude of the mark of the beast since you are required to be screened via the forehead or wrist in order to enter restaurants, certain businesses, and work. also without this screening we cannot obtain medical or dental help. so it seems that right now we have no problem with it and is the norm. but it won’t be long before they introduce a “mark” of some sort, be it chip, visible mark or even maybe a unified international debit/id card with a particular logo that we present as we are “screened” and most people will not even realize what is happening due to this normal routine! so be wary my friends….

  • You state that you do not think the mark will be an actual mark, but a metaphorical one. You also think the mark is not connected to COVID19. The mark of the beast in Revelation will make it where you cannot interact in normal business without it. No buying, no selling, etc. If the mark was metaphorical, that would not be the case.
    Already, we have places all over the world who have declared people cannot go out in public businesses without a mask on. Schools and colleges have issued statements saying all students will be required to wear a mask or not come to school. Many places have stated that the masks will be required until the vaccine is available, at which time you will be required to have proof of the vaccine in order to do business, just like with the mask now. That is what the digital health certificate that MIT is working on right now is for. It is a quantum dot tattoo that goes under your skin, which contains all your information and allows anyone who scans it to know if you have been vaccinated. You will be required to have yourself scanned for the vaccine. No vaccine, no business and no school.

    • Agreed. And I’m ok with that…Matthew 6:26. God will provide. I’m going with God on this one. Already quit my nursing job which is testing everyone every other day and will require the vaccine. Not worrried for God is Great!

      • wow! I wish I could get my wife to do that and or believe to that degree. Nice thumbs up to I hope that’s true what you said and not just saying it online since no one is going to know for sure but if so nice.
        Even if I don’t do as I think I should have already I hope that if I don’t do that and they come for me to get that crap I hope I have that much faith and tell them to pound sand!

    • Revelation says that, “…none may buy or sell without the mark…” If the mark is not physical, and obvious, how would that be enforced?

  • Your off a bit, david used violence against the oppressor goliath (killing him) through God. So, The Lord does not like passive cowards, you fight evil with violence if needed, don’t spread false info to meet todays cowardly passive (satanic) agenda.

  • 2 Timothy 3:4 reminds me why it is very important for true believers to seek wise spiritual leadership. This is false theology… the mark of the beast is a physical mark that allows one to buy or sell goods period. As mentioned in Gods word refusal of this mark could lead to a physical death but you would have remained faithful to God and will be saved in the end. We are obviously being primed right now. The mask is the start. I just never thought we would be living through this craziness. Essentially Revelations is a parallel to Exodus. Blood of the unblemished lamb was placed on the door posts and the spirit of death passed over. This foreshadows Christ as the Lamb of God in Revelations. We now are covered by the blood of Jesus the ultimate Passover lamb! Just as plagues fell over Egypt so to will plagues again happen but this time on a global scale. But just as the Children of Israel were supernaturaly delivered through the partying of the red sea we shall also be delivered and caught up in the sky before the final wrath is poured. We as believers must have knowkedge of the Jewish roots of our faith then we can then learn parallels and prophetic wisdom between the old and new covenants. -Reference 2 Timothy, Revelations and Exodus.

    • I’ve read all these comments and just wanted to share some of my own research that might help us understand the times we are living in…

      I do believe the mark of the beast will be physical as we see with the prophecies about Jesus, he met them literally and as you study the scriptures you will find prophecy is hardly ever met ‘symbolically’ as many theologians seem to be trying to debate these days?

      Just a couple of things to be aware of currently that are pathing a road to revelation being met literally, not to fear but just evidence that we are living in a climate that is most certainly on a count down to the end. There is a lot that governments are implementing currently that are testing the waters to see how people respond to mandatory laws that didn’t exist previously.

      1. Space X project (Elon Musk funding a project to put enough low orbit satellites into space so the Earth has a global reach for broadband communications). This would be needed for a global financial system such as a microchip in the hand or a chip in the forehead (take a look at Neurolink project that Elon Musk is heading up)

      2. Bill Gates’ Level One Project (a project aimed at a global financial system) partnered with this project are Huawei.

      3. The beast from the sea (anti-christ) as described in revelation 13 has 7 heads. Currently this number matches nicely with the G7 (which up until recently was G8). One of those heads appeared to have suffered a mortal wound and recovered (Boris Johnson apparently nearly died from corona virus).

      4. The second beast from the land (false prophet). Will deceive the world with sorcery. The original Greek for sorcery/magic is ‘Pharma‘ and so pharmaceuticals may be the way this false prophet works. Also calling down fire from heaven. Original Greek would link this to lightening. Maybe the false prophet is science? If you think about the magicians or wise men through the bible who advised the leaders of the different nations they were exactly that? Think about who advises our governments now.

      The main focus though even though we see all this starting to take shape is that we point people to the only one who can save them and that is Jesus.

  • The mark of the beast goes in your hand or forehead. I have never seen a vaccine injected anywhere except an arm. So I question a vaccine being the mark. I do believe the mark is tangible. I think the vaccine is equally as dangerous because it can most definitely change your DNA whose end result is transhumanism. If you are half human and half something else you will also lose your salvation that way. Remember the giants in the Bible were half human and half fallen angel. There was no redemption for them.

    • The hand and forehead are symbolism. The Jews have a phylactery, leather pouch with strap. It is placed around the forehead or hand. Inside they place the Shema: “The Lord our GOD is one GOD”, a prayer. When you allow anything to change that prayer and bow to a different god the prophesy is fulfilled in part. Eventually in whole. Science is now god. Stop listening to men of science, read your Bible and pray. Science does not support GOD. GOD created everything confounding science at every intersection.

  • This Authorr has brain, but he is clearly absent of the Holy Spirit who reveals all. He is as blind as the lost world concerning the subject spoken here in. Far as I’m concern, he is in this for profit, enforcing all of his dear friends and colleagues books.

  • If people spent as much time repenting of their sins as they did brewing up conspiracy theories and trying to ‘figure out the end-times’, the church would already be unified and we’d all be in Glory.

    • This is the most powerful comment ever , in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!!!!!

  • Revelation clearly says that “…no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark,” Unless it is a physical mark, how would that particular proviso be enforced? Are the clerks at Walmart going to hook every customer up to a lie detector and question them? The only logical interpretation is that the mark will be physical and obvious to all. It may even be something like an injected chip that can be easily detected by an electronic device. To me it is obvious that it is a physical, not symbolic, mark.

  • If it is merely a symbolic meaning of loyalty and not truly a mark then why in the Bible does it say it will be on their right hand or forehead?? Sounds pretty literal to me….that a physical mark will be placed not just a show of loyalty. Debit cards already have a chip, most ppl are right handed, we are now headed to where businesses will not accept cash. No buying or selling without your card “chip”……something to think about.

    • The covid vaccine was produced using babies sacrificed by abortion. It has fetal cells that people are willingly absorbing into their bodies. (Google covid vaccine fetal cells.)
      It is not a medical procedure, it can not stop the virus. It doesn’t stop the person from being infected nor does it stop the spread, it only may lessen the symptoms.
      Christians should not trust science over God. Good will be called evil, and evil good. Natural is now considered unnatural and the unnatural is natural.
      The vaccine is biotechnology, our cells are programmed to remember the protein of the virus.
      As for the mark of the beast, we can’t accidentally choose it because we have the Bible, we know the book of revalation so if we are looking to science to save our lives than we are not looking to God and his word.
      The world is turning to global digital currency.
      No longer paper cash or cards, we will only be able to buy or cell through our phones.
      Our phones are now tracking devices, you won’t be able to run or hide , buy or sell. Even if we through them away, we are in the system especially if you were covid tested.
      Most people are right handed and what is in our phones, Google, Amazon, Facebook, hate, lies, etc goes into our foreheads, our brain.
      The testing and the vaccine plays a huge role in the mark of the beast. It is mentally conditioning us through fear to trust the world leaders, world organizations, science and media. Fear is not of the Lord.
      If we get the vaccine we are willingly supporting and absorbing aborted babies, we are willingly placing ourselves in the beast we call technology, we are willingly being traced.
      Does anyone have a clear understanding of the number 666? Could it be a part of the technology involved in the making of the mRna vaccine?

      • The 666 in Revelation is referring to Nero Caesar and to nothing else, and he died about 2000 years ago.

        • Only to Nero? How could you possible know something like that unless you had a divine revelation. If the text was specific it wouldn’t leave any room for other opinions and thought, but since the text is vague and leaves things open to interpretation, it is more than reasonable to think that these prophetic passages have dual or even tri meanings that can be fulfilled any number of times. Such in the case as the anti-christ, there have already been a whole bunch, the pope’s position has fulfilled much of the prophecy and it continues to do so.

        • @Alongcamejones What you seem to misunderstand is that the mark of the beast does NOT only involve 666. 666 is but one of four instances that constitute obedience to the beast system. And it is given in scripture as a means to identify the beast (for it is a number of a man). Thus you cannot just address the one aspect and completely act oblivious to the other four instances found in Revelation 13:16-18 which are:

          1. Taking the mark of the beast.
          2. Or his name
          3. Or the number of his name (666) and…
          4. Worshipping of the beast and/his image

          Notice how 666 is third on the listt? Thus you need to reconcile all those instances to the Nero doctrine, not just one. And whilst at it, please explain the current events in regards to the mask-wearing ritual where one is denied entry to stores (aka buy or sell) save he who has the mask… which will eventually be conferred to the coming vaccine where one will be denied access to stores and other amenities unless they produce proof of vaccination. Can you put all this in biblical perspective in terms of timing/chronology/eschatology?

          Also, notice how the angel in Revelation 14:9-10 warns that anyone who takes the mark, or worship the beast will be cast in a lake of fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and the lamb. Has this happened already?

          Lastly, are you going to take the vaccine? If not, why not?

          • Hi Luvuyo. I cannot quite make sense of any of your logic, it can only be described as fuzzy logic, and an extreme case thereof I might say. But in answer to your Question about why we are made to wear a mask if we want to enter a shop etc. I think I can shed some light on this subject for you. I am not sure if you have heard or not, but there is a serious virus going around at the moment, world wide in fact. Its Called Covid- 19, Have you heard of it ?? maybe you have, maybe you haven’t ? But anyway to cut a long story short they require people who are in public spaces to wear a mask to help prevent spreading the Virus. According to Health experts masks do help some what to prevent the spread of the virus. I hope this information is of some help so you are able to understand.

          • No there is no pandemic, sorry the news lied. The media is owned by the 1%, only 6 companies control 95% of all information. There was a virus that killed some people, but no more than sars or H1N1. Masks do more harm than good, they don’t stop the virus at all. Just put a mask on and vape and you will see the vapour pouring out which is way larger than a virus.

            There is always a justification for what they are doing, wake up people. They are going to release more deadly viruses that will actually kill many people because it actually works with the VACCINE! Trust God and not a vaccine, if you take this vaccine you will be altering your DNA code and you prob will die from the future viruses, and end up taking the real MOTB cause you are so blind!

          • Sorry Al, but your comments are quite ridiculous. But some on this platform will be gullible enough to believe you

          • @AlongcameJones I find it rather concerning that to you all comments are ridiculous or fuzzy. @AI is making a lot of sense in his comment. Strange that you find it ridiculous. And yes, you right, either people are gullible or you are deceived. Either that or this comment section has been infiltrated already. But like I said, this is not a random debate, for one of us shall be proven right or wrong pretty soon. Hopefully it won’t be too late by then.

          • Hi Luvuyo. I have a puzzle for you to solve for me if you care to accept the challenge. In Revelation 17 V 10 John is talking about 7 kings. 5 have already come and gone, the 6th has to be in power at the time that John is writing the Book of Revelation, because he says ” AND ONE IS ” the 7th King is yet to come. So who are these 7 kings

          • Too bad most people are on my side cause most people who have the Holy Spirit see something is up. Too bad there is 100% proof to what I am saying in simple google searches. If your too lazy to do any research at all and gullible to believe the ridiculous lies of Satan than your prob will end up getting the MOTB

          • @AlongcameJones So what happened to flu and fever? Were they the first victims of CV-19? Or were they rebranded? @Al is correct. CV-19 is a hoax! As you shall soon find out.

          • Luvuyo I am sure if you got the Virus and I pray God you do not, I don’t think you would care 2 hoots what the virus was called you could be ?? in desperate need of a good ventilator to save your life. And don’t say it won’t happen to me bec you could be putting a hex on yourself.

          • @AlongcameJones You right, you won’t be able to make any sense of my logic if you don’t read the bible for yourself. And yes, it will be fuzzy and extreme in the absence of scripture guidance. I was hoping that you’d quote scripture in your response since this discussion started off with a biblical perspective. But it wasn’t to be. Another fact that I would like to establish right out of the gate is, this is NOT a random debate as one of us shall be proven right or wrong in the not so distant future. Hopefully it won’t be too late by then for any of us.

            Now back to your assertions in regards to mask-wearing and the so called “serious” CV-19 virus. You still haven’t addressed my request to : please explain the current events in regards to the mask-wearing ritual where one is denied entry to stores (aka buy or sell) save he who has the mask, and put all this in biblical perspective in terms of timing/chronology/eschatology? To think that the mask wearing ritual is about a virus, is to err. For it isn’t.

            Notice how a mask is required at the door in a restaurant, but you are allowed to take off when eating? How does the virus know the difference?

            Notice how you are allowed to take your mask off when shooting ID photos. How does the virus know that you taking photos and that it must wait?

            How does the virus know when a group exceeds the permitted number at a public gathering, that if you go over the limit by one person it gets mad and starts infecting indiscriminately?

            …and many other instances where you are allowed to take your mask off as if this virus is intelligent enough to tell the difference.

          • Luvuyo I have come to realize that I really really like you. I just adore your comments, and I just love your wonderful sense of humour. You are put a chuckle in my heart and you have made my day on more than one occasion. Thank you ❣️😂😆😀😀

          • @AlongcameJones You still haven’t shared any scripture reference in a bid to illustrate any of your views/arguments. Good for you that you find any of this chuckle-worthy, for I haven’t. This is a life and death issue in the literal sense. Laugh all you like, but just remember that Souls are at stake here. So long.

          • Luvuyo. To answer your question about would I take the vaccine. Yes I would and maybe sometime soon as I need to travel overseas. But you have claimed the Virus is a hoax in one E-mail and then in another you claim its a life and death matter. So which one is it ?? You can’t have it both ways. You are complaining that I haven’t given you any scriptural verses to back my claim. So here is my best effort found in Matt 12 v 39. ” A naughty and impatient Generation seeketh after a sign, and there shall NO sign be given to it, but the sign of the Prophet Jo’nas:

  • Go back and re-read the book of Revelation. You tend to over spiritualize God’s warnings. The mark will be necessary to buy or sell.

  • It say’s in the King James Version that you will receive a mark “in” not “on” your right hand or forehead. That is what the quantum dot digital tattoo is. It goes in the skin. It is made from the enzyme luciferase. Lucifer Race. It lights up when viewed with a special device. Otherwise it can’t be seen. The so called vaccine can contain nano bots. It can change your DNA. You can become a hybrid. That is why those who receive the mark are no longer found in the Lamb’s book of life. 666 is coming up all over the place with this Mark. The 5 G can activate whatever it is they put in you. They are not doing this because they care about you. I think the beast is the A.I. I think it will be given an image. The beast is supposed to do many miracle’s and wonder’s. There is still time left. We will see. I think God will send out a warning to everyone that this is indeed the mark. I don’t think God will leave us hanging and wondering. I hope not. The more you research this, the more it looks like the mark. God does not want us to get it because maybe you will be a mindless hybrid, totally controlled. Enslaved and incapable of free thought. No one will come to your rescue. There are no more good guy’s. They will have the whole world. God will intervene. It will be harvest time. The wheat and the tares. When you have nothing left and nowhere to go. No one to help. When you are at the end of all hope. Then there is God.

  • Under the Emperor Decius, the entire empire was forced to obtain a certificate that would enable them to buy or sell. To do this, they had to offer a sacrifice to the state gods to demonstrate their loyalty. The church was put into a dilema. The faithful refused and many lost their lives. Others, obtained a certificate. It just about destroyed the church.

    So, relating this to our present situation, the Mark of the Beast could be anything. But if would seem to be a visible sign or physical thing showing that a person has sworn their allegiance to the state and the worship of man.

    What appears to be happening is that the methods are being introduced through which loyalty to the state can be ascertained. The Decian certificate was a passport. It was the means of obtaining it that was the problem.

    Masks, social-distancing, vacines are gateways to the eventual worshipping of state and man that will be required in the near future.

    • Hi Rob. Interesting what you said about Decius. I had never heard about Him. I have recently come to the conclusion that Nero was the 666 and the beast and the mark of the beast, the man of sin etc that scripture talks about. A teaching series on You Tube by the reformed theologian Dr Ken Gentry on the book of Revelation and the beast is exceptionally good and thorough. He presents conclusive evidence that all the horror things written in Revelation found their total fulfillment in the 1st century and have nothing to do whatsoever with anything in the 21st century. Worth a google up and look.

      • @Paddle on thru… This doesn’t make sense. Are you saying that Dr Ken Gentry is telling us that biblical prophesy is no longer applicable? That it was meant for the 1st century folks and thus has since come to pass? If I hear you correctly we might as well just toss our bibles to the nearest trash bin right? Because there’ll be no beast system rising? No second coming of Christ for his bride? No tribulations? No day of the Lord? No mark of the beast? No nothing? Basically what he’s saying is that the 21st century church is stuck with the evil political world! Ruled by the wicked!? Is that what Dr. Gentry is saying?

        • No no no don’t throw away your Bible just yet. Not all of Revelation has been fulfilled yet but the great majority has. The 2nd coming of Christ, the marriage supper of the Lamb, the Great white throne judgement, The lake of fire as final judgement for the unfortunate. None of these things have happened yet and maybe 1 or 2 other things that aren’t coming to mind at the moment. But certainly the 666 and the beasts and the mark of the beast and the man of lawlessness, the man of sin that Paul talks about in 2 Thess.2. These have most certainly been totally fulfilled because they are all talking about one and the same person. Emperor Nero. If you watch Ken Gentry 3 part video on the Revelation he will prove to you conclusively using scripture that this true. He also has a superb teaching on the Beast of Revelation

          • @paddle on thru …none of this makes sense to me. As a result I find it difficult to comprehend, reason being; if prophecy about the mark of the beast has already come to pass, as you claim it has, what about the ability or inability to buy or sell? Seeing that it is tied to the mark of the beast (Revelation 16-17)? Secondly, how do you explain the current events in regards to CV-19 wherein people are being denied entry into stores save he who has the mask? Which in all likelihood will be replaced by a vaccine where as in the case of a mask people will most probably be required to produce proof thereof? What I’m trying to ask is; can you tell me what’s coming next in terms of prophecy given that the mark has come and gone as per Dr. Ken Gentry’s claim?

            Lastly, Would you personally take the coming vaccine for CV-19? And would you accept transhumanist technologies like the Neurolink; ID2020; RFID chip implants et al? If not, why not?

          • I am greatly surprised at the out of control mass hysteria that going on thru out the world during this pandemic. It is purely a medical emergency. Viriologists have been for decades saying that the world will be hit from time to time with pandemics. Covid will not be the last Pandemic. Its a medical problem its not a conspiracy. Its got nothing to do with bible prophecy. All the scary type prophecies in the Revelation found their fulfillment in the 1st Century. TMOTB The 666AC the inability to buy and sell. All these things relate to the reign of Nero Caesar in the 1st century. All these things have ZERO relevance to the 21st Century as Matthew Halsted was trying to convey. If the Govt or who ever wants you to wear a mask its their attempt to try to stop the spreading of the virus. Its not a nice way to die gasping for breath.
            As far as what prophecies are left there is belief by post millenists that gradually over the coming decades Christianity will start to grow to the point where the Faith will be the rule rather than the exception. Hope this helps with some clarity.

          • paddled on thru… I urge you to stay on this platform for as long as you possibly can, so we can come back to this thread when the “hysteria” proves justified, or you or Dr. Ken Gentry are proven wrong. Your reducing the issue to being a mere “medical emergency” when it actually has changed the world as we know it, borders on you either being naive, or totally having misjudged the situation, or being completely oblivious to what the 4th Industrial Revolution is… and it’s purpose… either way your take on this issue is hopelessly misconstrued in my view.

            It seems (like many uninformed people) you are of the view that this so called pandemic is a temporary glitch in our lives, that will eventually pass. And that the mask-wearing ritual is an innocuous act of nobility by the powers that be, that if we do as we are told, it will be over soon! Well… let me bring this to your attention then: People are not gonna wear masks forever! And NO! We are NEVER going back to our “normal“ lives. At least not without some trade-off taking place. Thus something is going to replace the mask that’s on your face. Possibly a vaccine ???? [well, given that you think it’s just a “medical emergency” in which Bill Gates (a computer geek) is somehow neck-deep involved, and you see nothing wrong with that?] I think you need to research this issue further, especially biblical prophecy which you and Dr. Ken Gentry seem steadfast on denying, whether by error or design. And yes, something is going to replace the vaccine… which together with the mask are precursors to the “coming” mark of the beast or MOTB as you fondly call it.

            I’m seriously tempted to label your suggestion that we keep bits and pieces of scripture in regards to the book of Revelation prophecy and chuck the pieces that have already come to pass in the 1st century according to Dr. Gentry a load of cow dung! Either way, I’ll come back here cap-in-hand and sincerely apologize should you be correct. Right now though… I think you and Dr. Gentry are completely off the mark!

            Like someone wrote: mask now and mark later. Novus Ordo Seclorum

      • That’s garbage. Nero may have some indication for what and how he acted, but he most certainly was not nor is not the beast of revelation.
        Last time I looked no one is immortal nor walked on glass as of yet. Satans not under anyone’s feet nor is he being used as a footstool. John was looking ahead and not just a few years either, but thousands of years. The whore is still alive and well, and is wearing a face mask and obeying the beast now.

        • csaaphill would you agree Revelation was written 2000 years ago. Keep that in mind when you take a careful read of Rev 1:v 1 & 3 and also Rev.22 v6 &10. Then tell me what you see.

  • The person that wrote this is either not a Christian or a complete buffoon as to there method of expression. Of Course that Satan or the Dragon as of the Stars of the show? But sadly this writer fails to give actual credible biblical references as to what the mask actually is which is only one part of a four part ritual intended to take away the divinity of man and put it under the dominion of satan, by accepting and becoming subjected to satan’s government the New World Order.

  • Covid means: C=certificate O= of V= validation [id] = identification. 19 = A.I. artificial intelligence. The Govt. plans mass population vaccination for covid19, it includes a nano quantum mark that looks like a bandaid, they press onto your hand or forehead that also injects you with a chip, and the vaccination has 1% non human DNA that will change you, the vaccination leaves tiny holes that resemble a tattoo, now they can track you by 5G all over the world and you can buy sell or trade. Without it u loose it all, insurance, money, home food, etc. Do not get this. God will take care of His children. Dont believe this? Research it. Also see http://www.blueact.com/charity is Democrats donation website, see all the corporations donating and what to. They are devils. America is full of them and it is modern day Babylon, God will send his wrath to destroy Babylon and every city and nation that acts like Babylon. Me ? Born again and baptized for 52 yrs, at age 12 in 1967. Please study and read KJV bible, ask God for wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Repent, pray and trust in Jesus ! Also Google owns the only quantum supercomputer that will keep all your identification in Santa Barbara, CA called NIST. Look it up. I believe it is a spiritual AND physical mark of satan.

  • See the Meaning of Covid-19.

    C = certificate
    O = from
    V = vaccine
    Id-2020 (identification 2020)
    19 = ia = Artificial Intelligence

    The number 1 is the letter (A) and 9 is the letter (i) of the alphabet.

    In Revelation 13 it says that the number 666 represents a name, the same thing is with the number 19, the world elite says that it is because of the year 2019, but in fact it is a hidden name in numerical format.

    So the name Covid-19 means that here …

    —- Vaccination certificate with artificial intelligence identification —-

    • @Juliano a certain Dr. Kent Gentry says the mark of the beast prophecy has come to pass already, and that it was meant for the 1st century church. Thus we don’t have to worry about the mark, well… I guess. When I questioned his teachings via one of his followers on this thread, and whether we should throw away our bibles. He said no because there are some bits and pieces of Revelation that are still to come. Yeah hey.

  • Everyone should read their bible about the mark of the beast get into the word. This is just a man listen to God and his word and it will be revealed to you. What does the bible say about the mark? What does the bible say about fear? What does the bible say about our sins and being given into foolishness and believing our own lies instead of God? Go to the word and if you don’t understand pray.

  • I find it remarkable that a passage as simple and straightforward as this could be interpreted so imaginatively and fictitiously. Let us look at this from a realistic possibility in today’s technology: Without this mark of the beast (Anti-Christ), you can’t eat or buy things. Today when you go into a Walmart, you can go over to the automatic cashier and simply scan every item with its cooresponding bar code. Now, this beast (Anti-Christ) will be the Ruler of the World and will be given his power of State by all the countries of the world. Why would such idiotic technology as a paper mask worn over the mouth and nose be considered a mark? So strike out that supposition. How about the tiny dot that appears for a couple days from modern vaccines? It’s not permanent, and can’t be scanned by a scanner. Strike that idiocracy. Certificate Of Validation Identification AI, C-O-V-I-D-19. How about using the number code: 28557448? Again we can strike that far-reaching interpretation.Then there’s the one using the Catholics and the Sabbath stating the Catholics can worship God on the 1st day of the Sabbath because they want to. It goes on to say the Sabbath is Sunday because of the Jewish interpretation of the Sabbath. When God was done on Saturday evening (measured by darkness) he started the Sabbath. So it begins Saturday night and extends until Sunday night. (Look it Up) Now somehow that is supposed to be entertwined with the Mark Of The Beast according to another ingenious hypothesy. Why wouldn’t the “Beast” simply use a tatooed bar code on the palm of non-criminals, and brand the mark into the forehead of criminals? Simple and expeditious. And there ya go.

  • Revelation 13:16-18, “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

    I think the Mark is that damned mask. You can’t do squat without it. You can’t buy food, you can’t do business, you can be arrested for not wearing it, a store can lose it’s license to operate if they allow customers to come in without one. And the list goes on.

    • Hi Dan. Its not realistic to say the mask is the mark. The mask is simply a device to help prevent the spread of covid. It is purely a medical emergency: Period !! To claim it has something to do with the TMOTB or Bible prophecy is a delusion. If you really want to know, on You tube see Reformed Theologian Dr Ken Gentry “The Beast of Revelation IDENTIFIED ” For the real deal. A MUST SEE

  • Truly the preson that wrote this article has a bad impression of what the mark of the beast is. Scripture doesn’t say it is a computer, but I CAN guarantee you, that is exactly what it will be. Covid 19 is preparing the herd of the dragon to accept the mark, as many are complying with mask orders, and shunning those that don’t. My guess is eventually, COVID 19 will lead to the mark. First it will become voluntary to get the vaccine and microchip. Then, eventually, the vaccine and microchip will become mandatory, if one doesn’t want to get beheaded. The only desperation to convince society of this madness is a plague, where people refuse to get marked to by and sell, and prove they are safe to buy and sell with those who have been lead astray to worship the beast. Those refusing to accept it must die, because they will represent a threat to the others, is how this will be sold. The entire reasoning behind this, is the global elites, really seek to depopulate the earth, as they really believe they are doing God a service by killing those who refuse the mark. These self consumed globalists believe they are the good stewards of the earth and shall preserve life, and earth by killing those who refuse the mark, and they will also trim the heard down, their main desire. Then, after is is all over, Jesus returns to cast the beast and false prophet (pope) into hell along with all his followers, and all those who accepted the Mark of the Beast and colluding in killing the saints of Christ. This will all occur rapidly and sooner than most expect or realize. We are on a pathway to destruction of the old world, and the new world will emerge, where Christ and his saints will rule the earth, and universe. Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, what God has prepared for the saints. However, the mind has imagined and pondered the blessing of the future.

    The book of Enoch for instance says the saints will produce 1000 babies in their youth during the 1,000 year reign. God, obviously seeks to populate the universe is my guess, and perhaps we will be given planets or solar systems to rule, for we shall be kings and priest assigned by our God. Then the sons of Levi will make offerings to the Lord in Righteousness. God is great.

    • I don’t think you have got the interpretation of the Beast quite right there. The Beast out the sea is the Roman Empire and one of its heads is Nero the 666. The Beast out of the land is most likely to be Emperor Domitian and the society he formed called the Roman Religious Cult. They severely persecuted the Church with Domitians approval in much the same way Nero was doing approx.15 years earlier. Just about all historians agree that outside of Israel Nero brought the first wave of persecution against the Church and Domitian brought the second. So that is what John is Prophesying about. It can not possibly be a computer because Chpt 13 has nothing to do with the 21st Century.

  • It seems the idea of anything being considered the mark of the beast is that it is required of you by society, to participate in society OR is a precursor leading up to that action. So driver’s licenses, marriage licenses, or any legal requirement is a precursor to the mark, conditioning people to accept it. It seems some consider everyone to be mindless zombies who can’t make mature distinction decisions as bearers of God’s image.

  • Wow, people really are crazy. God is about love and we should not give the devil and all that pertains to him the respect so many people are giving him. Jesus is the lamb of God and will be there for those who love him. Believe in him as a little child as that is how we are to accept God and understand that to be with God is salvation and no one has to worry about how great or bad this life is because the next life with God is better than anyone can imagine. Covid, No Covid, Vaccine, No Vaccine has nothing to do with God and everything to do with science. There have been disease in this world since the beginning of time. Nothing new here. Governments are just people, not Gods. God is Great, Beer is Good, and people really are Crazy.

  • Collectivism is the ideology of the adversary. It is his plan. It is the abandonment of individual volition and accountability, replaced by proletarian group think. The promotion and adherence to this ideology, in any way, can be considered carrying the “mark of the beast”. Collectivism permeates today’s society and most are caught up in impending disaster.

  • I have been seeing a lot of articles, posts, etc. that is linking the mark of the beast to vaccines, cashless society and RFID implants. I feel a twinge of fear every now and again, “Dear Lord, what are we going to do?”
    We need to be careful that the devil does not use our Bible knowledge against us and be deceived. We need to always remember this and keep God’s word in our hearts at all times. We need to pray at all times for wisdom and discernment so that we will not be overcome and die of the last days fear that the Bible talks about. If we are uncertain about anything, we need to take to God’s word and take it to God. Be careful what you read and believe. Instead, discard it and read God’s word so that you can get certainty. If you pray for God to make everything clear for you, He will. Read His word and pray day and night. Do not speculate. It amounts to nothing. Use all that energy to glorify God instead. To praise Him with thanks that He is our protector and savior. In all things, by prayer and supplication, make your requests known to God. He will lead you. With His help, not a hair on your head will be harmed. Keep your faith. Be slow to anger and always be kind.

    • THANK YOU for your EXCELLENT reply. I’ve been speaking to a Christian family member about all of this; she has read the article and some of the comments. And we are both very concerned that many Christians are becoming more focused on the Antichrist than Christ. As one well known Pastor has put it, “The Book of Revelation is NOT about the revealing of the Antichrist; but of Jesus Christ.”
      People are being led around they their noses now; as you wrote, “speculating”; instead of knowing THE Truth.
      It has been said that bank tellers; in their training; are NEVER shown counterfeit bills. Instead; they are made to handle REAL money; until they are SO familiar with what is REAL; that when the FALSE one appears; they KNOW it; by comparing it to the REAL; which is the ONLY thing that they HANDLE.
      If we as Christians would learn to ONLY HANDLE DAILY WHAT IS REAL….GOD’S WORD….we would have NO WORRIES about recognizing what is FALSE if or when it comes. But WE seem to WANT TO handle the FALSE; to ‘get a feel’ for it; but THAT is EXACTLY what the enemy WANTS. He WANTS US to BECOME FAMILIAR….MORE FAMILIAR….with all that is of HIM; rather than all that is of GOD.
      HANDLY ONLY WHAT IS TRUE; WHAT IS OF GOD; AND YOU WILL RECOGNIZE WHAT IS OF THE ENEMY WHEN IT COMES; DON’T TRY TO SEARCH FOR IT AHEAD OF TIME. THEREIN LIES DECEPTION.
      Thank you once again for your great reply. Take care.

    • @johanna, thank you so much for this as this is one of the only reasoned responses on this entire comment section. People are spending so much time speculating as to what the Mark will be and whether we are seeing signs of what is to come. We need to be in THE WORD and not spending time wondering about what is going to happen. Thank you again for your reasoned and Spirit led response.

  • Lol are you kidding me? The bible was meant to fool people brainwash they are controlling you. The bible is fiction all fake there is proof of this as well but people are scared of the truth. A god doesn’t exist its only your personal illusion of a way of living. Nature itself has grown and evolved religion and a form of a god is false. Over 10000 religions and 2500 types of gods. People that are religious are not ready to grow up face the truth bible fiction stories are man made earth is not thousands of years old there people that people that nonsense..

    • @Ryan: “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” – Psalm 14:1.
      I pray that your eyes are opened man, and that you may come to the full knowledge of the Truth. These discussions are not in vain. For there comes a time where we shall either be proven right or wrong. But by that time there shall be no chance for repentance, unfortunately. This is just not worth your soul. Jesus loves you brother. Always remember that.

  • It is an intentional, spirtual act, confirmed by a visible outward sign. The book of James makes the point that faith is confirmed by outward actions.

    The particular aspect is that of relying on the state and others to provide for our needs, rather than God. This is a constant failing on all our part and is replete througout the scriptures. It is a rejection of God.

    The outward aspect could be anything at this stage, but some kind of track and trace technology would make sense.

    The Emperor Decius refused anyone in the empire access to the marketplace unless they had a certificate. This certified that the person had worshipped the state endorsed statue/idol. Naturally, many Christians refused this and were persecuted, brutally. Many Christians obtained the certificate and when the persecution was over, it almost tore the Church apart.

    This historical precedent gives us a clue as to what is to come.

    For instance, would it have mattered if it was a piece of metal or wood, rather than a paper certificate?

    The fact is that the Roman world was forced to acknowledge their allegiance to the state to get access to the basics in life. This allegiance meant worshipping a man–trusting in the state, with a human at the top, rather than God.

    So, let’s see how this pans out. The Economic Reset is coming in 2021. I think shortly after than, things will become clearer.

  • I read thru some of the comments, it seems to me many comments are focused on the mark of the beast forgetting you must also worship the beast. I think to get the mark you would have to first worship the beast and if you have decided to worship the beast you wont have a problem getting the mark. I though the author had made this clear.

    • you forget or leave out or do not know worship doesn’t mean as in Sunday or Saturday worship. But worship also entails obeying. you worship the beast as in obeying it. the two are inseparable. you get the mark through your.obedience to its decrees. as in Mask mandates and or if you can’t get in to buy or sell you will worship or obey what it says to do in order to keep your lively hood. Or as with when Cyrus let the Judeans go back and rebuild their temple most didn’t go for it was nice in Babylon. they’d forgotten what to worship Obey God was like they didn’t want to give up their Job walk hundreds of miles and to who knows where. So you get it while obeying it and people need to know that. so it’s not being focused on something that’s pretty much one and the same you worship it by obeying it and so you will have the mark.

      • @csaaphill… I agree ????%! Worship is closely tied to obedience. This is the exact same reason I’ve never worn a mask! And never will! I eat from street hawkers as a result, and am at peace with it. I refuse to subject myself to virtual signaling and social conditioning tactics such as wearing a mask, social distancing and being scanned on the forehead with an infrared temperature gun, which are all clearly precursors to the coming mark of the beast. The question is at what point are we going to get off the bus? At what point are we going to say no to the beast system? At what point are we going to be willing to give up our worldly comforts? My soul is worth more than the things of this world I’m sorry.

  • All I can say is great article, and man from the comments, did you hit a nerve.

    We have a major issue in this country with a dangerously false ‘pre-trib rapture’ eschatology and modern conspiracy fantasy having been pushed on unsuspecting people unchallenged for decades in church classrooms and bible studies. It was unchallenged because it seemed harmless, entertaining, got people engaged in reading scripture, etc., but we are now reaping the incredible harm of multiple generations of people convinced of its truth, digging for clues and codes in scripture, and trying to decode the weekly news.

    QAnon is preying on this side of the christian subculture. All I can say is, not only are masks and vaccines absolutely NOT the “mark of the Beast”, but the ‘mark of the beast’ and much of the surrounding mystery is very likely speaking of past 1st century events, namely Rome, Nero, Vespasian, and the Jewish War, in which Jerusalem, the Temple, and with it the old sacrificial system were wiped off the face of the earth, replete with “armies running about in the clouds” seen over Jerusalem as recorded by Josephus.

    The distrust and war-mongering fruit of this obsession with eschatology among evangelicals has been nothing but negative. Even the faux support of modern Israel is based on a twisted plan to rebuild the Temple (to the extent of even genetically modifying cows in order to recreate a “red heifer” to resume animal sacrifice once the temple is built?) in order to recreate the 1st century world, only to allow for a re-destruction of the same temple.

    Christians, take a step back and evaluate the fruit of your twisted eschatological beliefs. If it isn’t edifying, if it doesn’t lead to loving your neighbor, then perhaps you have gone wrong somewhere?

    • Jay. I agree with what you are saying there. They are trying to fulfill scripture in the 21st Century, but they are 1900 years to late because it was all fulfilled in the 1st Century LOL

      • @paddle on thru… I’ve been trying to engage you on the issue of Revelation prophecy, but for some reason you don’t respond. I find it rather concerning that you don’t qualify your claim (that Revelation prophecy was fulfilled in the 1st century), by explaining the current events that are unfolding right before our eyes. Are you telling me that these are random happenings in a vacuum (scripturally speaking)? You provide nothing in this regard, leaving your claim open-ended in the process. I hope you do realize that there’s nothing to ‘LOL’ about in this, as it is a literal life & death situation in regards to the salvation of souls. Thus, stop treating it as secular debate because it is not. This is a spiritual matter. Let’s treat it as such. Now can you please explain where are we in terms of biblical timing? I shall wait.

      • You’re immortal then and this is already heaven? satan is dead and there is no sin then? You’re contention then as what Jesus said to the Pharisee or better yet Hypocrite what we’re to create heaven on earth and were to be uploaded to software someday and then that’s when we will be immortal? is that what you’re saying? For no it’s not and no were to not to. if God/Jesus is to not literally return and give us immortal bodies and not just spirits then were screwed!
        for as long as men control things through lies and deceit then were truly screwed! NO sir I will believe in a literal second coming and to be literal immortal were freedom and true liberty will reign and not be uploaded as your friend from Chinese owned Google wants us to do or wants to do himself.

        • Hi csaaphill. I forgot to say not all of Rev. was fulfilled in the 1st century, There are eternal things of God in Rev. that are obviously not fulfilled yet. The white throne judgement, the marriage supper of the lamb, the lake of fire etc. But re: the temporal affairs of man here on earth the Revelation was fulfilled in the 1st century.

          • @paddle on thru… I’ve been trying to engage you on this subject, but for some reason you not responding to my comments herein. In regards to Revelation prophecy having been partially fulfilled (in the 21st century), can you then explain and give biblical timing to the current political climate: Covid-19; the mask-wearing ritual and the coming vaccine? And the ability/inability to buy or sell that the mask affords you? Are you telling me that these are just random occurrences and nothing to worry about?

        • @csaaphill… Well said! Very well said! Pity that the 21st century prophecy believers won’t engage you on this subject. I’ve tried countless times to solicit responses and explanations from them to no avail. I hope they don’t form part of the false teachers the bible is warning us about.

    • @Jay… a certain “paddle on” (that’s a name) made similar comments to yours, apparently inspired by a certain Dr. Ken Gentry’s teachings that Revelation prophecy was meant for the 1st century church or ‘events’ as you put it. However, non of you take us “across” in regards to what’s unfolding today. If Revelation prophecy has come to pass, where are we in terms of biblical timing? For some unknown reason you guys fail to address this question, thus leaving the discussion open-ended. As much I agree with you that masks; vaccines; RFID chips et al might not be the mark of the beast, I however believe that they are precursors to what’s to come. The question is to what?

      • Why don’t you just google up Ken Gentry and see for yourself otherwise you will be going around and around in circles for all your days getting more and more misinformation and in the end you wont know if you are Arthur or Martha

    • Qanon first trolled then created a Super Hive to bring together disparate groups of conversatives who before now would not work together in common cause.

      It’s masterful trolling to start which impressed me mightily.

      Now it’s weaponized for truth.

      A collective of magical thinking inclined folks can be useful to Liberty

  • The belief that all Revelation was fulfilled during the 1st Century C.E. reveals an appalling lack of Bible knowledge. As are the theories that there is no “Rapture.” The pattern for the Removal of the Church from Earth is well established in BOTH testaments-Old and New. What we should not be using is that word “rapture.” You see it’s actually a Resurrection. The Christian believer’s body is transformed into the body they will have for the rest of eternity. We simply do not know WHEN this event will take place, though Jesus gave us some indicators of what to look for when the time approaches.

    For you preterists and non-rapture folk, Jesus’ remains are not in a “bone-box” somewhere. He rose from the dead and if you don’t believe that you’re probably NOT a Christian. I tend to think that those who follow liberal theology and secular humanist views of the Bible as also not real Christians. Sad to say, you will probably continue on in the same delusional views of Christianity until the day you are sent to Hell. The time to board the Ark of Christ Jesus is NOW. The time to believe He paid the full penalty for our sins, is Now. We can argue about the Rapture and allegorical baloney endlessly; but if you are not in Christ Jesus NOW, there is no guarantee you’ll get a chance to trust in Him before you slip into eternity.

    God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are in your future if you believe He died (and Rose from the Grave) for your sake. If you want to argue semantics and allegorical interpretations you could miss heaven entirely. Faith in Christ is the ONLY exclusive way to the Father; there is no other. In this age of “do your own thing” that’s not a popular message. Neither is it popular that mankind is under the curse of sin and Jesus is the ONLY remedy. But that is exactly so. If you don’t believe, you will find out I am right, the hard way.

    Notice I didn’t mention masks and injections and “spiritual marks?” They are symptoms of our times. But the big “happy” Gentile party is almost over. The “Time of the Gentiles” is nearly done. Next comes the Tribulation, no matter your theology. Next comes the completion and maturing of our Jewish brethren. And they will shine, oh how they will shine! But not until they see they’ve been betrayed. I feel the sadness of that event keenly as I pray for them and the peace of Jerusalem. Out of it will come a cleansing, and the world will see that God has not abandoned them and He still loves them and has a Plan for them that will rock the foundations of this world. All you “replacement theology” fans will be shocked to your core; that is, those of you who refuse the Mark of the Beast and either die for Christ’s sake, or someone how you manage to survive the tragedy of the Tribulation.

    You might think you can mock God, and for a time, in His mercy He might even allow you to, but He always wins. And what He says in the Bible always comes to pass, sometimes more than once. The historical, literal method of interpretation is the better choice. There are a few things which are obviously allegorical, but very few. For those of you who are convinced that Revelation is all about 1st Century Rome and completely fulfilled; you’re in for an unpleasant shock. As are all the “Rapture” detractors. You see, the genuine Church must be removed from this world in order for Israel to come of it’s own, and in order for certain other events to take place.

    After all, the Devil must given his due; figuratively and literally. His FULL due. If you have read and BELIEVED your Bible you’ll know that God is going to let him run the world. After all, he thinks he can do a better job of it than God has. The Devil is also due his comeuppance. For all the tragedy he has caused humanity and his interference with God’s will. But we truly would not have free will, if we didn’t have a choice on whom to serve. We can serve God; we can serve ourselves; or we can serve the Devil. The second two (serving yourself and serving the Devil are actually the very same). It all comes down to just the two. I certainly hope you choose to serve Christ. All other choices are bad for your well-being.

    I ask that those who are Christian to put aside denominational differences. By Christian I mean someone who fully believes Jesus died for your sin, on the Cross, and Rose from the dead. By Christian I mean someone who believes the full context of John chapter 3, especially AFTER John 3:16. Jesus tells us that we must ALSO believe in His death on the cross. Liberal theology ignores what Jesus said about Moses in the wilderness. Jesus makes it clear that you must believe in His Crucifixion, and not just that He exists. The Resurrection is also in that context. Jesus explains that humanity has a huge case of “snakebite” and only by faith in His death and resurrection will we be cured; just as the Israelite’s were cured by beholding the crucified snake.

    So why is the Rapture necessary? Because it is the rest of God’s transformation of humanity. It is God keeping His promise that He will make us physically immortal. Saving us from our sins is only the first step in God’s complete plan for every one of us… He’s going to finish the job!

    • WHose bible are you reading that rapture as in being disappeared or whisked away from earth is well established?
      For not it is not! Enoch was one and Elijah was the other. Two people do not make an established fact. And then you misuse Ressurection by say8ing Jesus’s bones are not in his tomb. Jesus was resurrected not raptured.
      Everywhere else in scripture people had to go through tribulation. People are saved through not from is the theme in the Bible!

    • What bible are you reading if you even did where Rapture is an established fact? For no it is not. Two people in all of scripture is not an established fact. And using Jesus’ bones are not in his tomb is a false statement or twisting truth.
      Jesus was resurrected not Raptured. there is a difference!
      Daniel was saved through tribulation not saved from. His friends were saved through the oven or their tribulation not from.
      Darby or whoever first started that nonsense was a false prophet!

      • @csaaphill… again, well said! Very well said! The “rapture“ doctrine comes from a place of fear instead of faith in my opinion. And it lacks biblical backing. At the first sign of trouble, church members are pinning their hopes on a “rapture” instead of trusting in Christ Jesus. The examples of tribulation that you alluded to (Daniel & his friends) prove beyond reasonable doubt that we are appointed ‘to’ tribulation… not exempted ‘from’ it. It’s concerning that most Christians who believe in this kind of teaching won’t be prepared for tribulation when it hits. And this might lead to the great falling away, as people maybe offended, and might say “this is not what I signed up for”, leading to souls being lost.

    • The bible also states that no one can buy or sell lest he has the mark. That the mark is taken on the right hand or forehead. Pretty specific. Plus the vaccine, according to one doctor will change your DNA. Even if that particular vaccine doesn’t, the ones to come surely will.

      Those who refuse the vaccine may very well risk complete ostracization from society or worse. The masks, the lockdowns, the vaccines, all are a form of enslavement.

  • Please forgive me if I have misinterpreted your article, but how can you claim that the mark of the beast is not physical when the Scriptures clearly state that no one will be able to buy or sell without the mark or the name of the beast on either their hand or forehead. (Rev. 13:17) Also, and again I mean no offense, for the eye cannot say to the hand, (1st Cor. 12:21), but exactly to whom are you writing to, it must be to the lost, for it is quite clear in the Word of God that the born-again believers will be taken out before the great and terrible day of the Lord begins, (1st Thess. 4:17) and all those who only professed Him with their lips will be left behind and sent a strong delusion, and will not enter into the kingdom. (2nd Thess. 2:11)

    • All, we Christians need to pay attention, please, for your salvation! In no particular order:
      Rev 13:11-12
      Rev 14:1
      Rev13
      Rev 6:6
      Acts 2:17
      Zechariah 11:16-17
      Zechariah 11:6
      Rev 8:10
      2nd Thessalonians 2:4
      Daniel 11:33
      Rev 17

    • That’s post-trib and not pre-trib as with the alive and remain statement of that scripture. it’s after the tribulation and those who made it and are still alive meaning some people will avoid the mark of the beast by either being beheaded as it states or by being able to hide or something from it!

    • That link or scripture you show isn’t pre-trib it’s post-trib.
      it clearly says those who are still alive meaning they lived through the tribulation not whished away before for a pre-trib raptured is against the theme of the bible. Only two people out of scripture were ever raptured Elijah and Enoch.
      if Elishia was too I may have forgot that but there weren’t Billions or millions of people ever Raptured in Scripture and goes against the theme of the whole bible.

      • This is a ludicrous claim made against ‘taken’.

        Do some reading about other uses of the word.

        The Virgin Mother of Jesus was lifted bodily into Heaven without death.

  • It’s not going to be called “The mark of the beast ” when it happens, it’ll just be a wonderful solution to all of our problems. That’s why so many “Christians” will accept it. I do wonder if the author is even spirit-filled. Sounds like he has a relationship with a book, not the Holy Trinity.

  • Part of the argument is that COVID is not the “mark”. That biblical passages suggest the mark would be a sign of loyalty or devotion not physical. Okay so look around it’s everywhere, in fact in front of your face. The fact is there is no real science that demonstrates masks work in fact the data from this reckless shut down and reaction to this disease demonstrates quite clearly that there is no statistically significant difference between those areas that mandate draconian mask use and those that don’t. So what is the purpose of the mask mandate? An overt flag of obedience or loyalty without question to people who are willing to murder and completely turn their back on the truth for their own ego for their own gain. While Covid is in itself not the mark it is the premise for it. After all what is the purpose of the “mark” but an obvious sign distinguishing those who will obey evil without question from those who will not.

  • It concerns me reading all the commentary on here, I think people are spending too much time debating whether or not the mask is The Beast, or that it leads to the Mark etc. and we’re not spending enough time on the Gospels. Revelation was not meant to be some “code” that we had to decipher, and IMO people spend too much time trying to figure out what “secret messages” are in the Book. Jesus told us to not be alarmed (Matt 24:6) and while I’m sure there is some good intention from a lot of us believers, I worry that there is a lot of alarming going on as well. We need to be preaching the Gospel because the more people that are saved, the less there will be who have to deal with the Beast etc.

    • Not to be alarmed for these things must come not what your using it as. People need to know so they don’t miss out on immortality and God wants us to know.
      Also, we’re not given a spirit of fear which is what I think your Matt 24:6 says but didn’t click it so not sure. and that’s what the world has especially the left and on the right, for I’ve seen people literally shy back out of fear which is of Satan.
      But we’re to look and research it all and to know what is it to avoid and or to be willing to die avoiding and not be deceived so no! people are not spending too much time on!

  • People advocating for masks and social distancing are simply trying to save lives. That’s all that matter,s isn’t it?

    • @Sarah Conner… saving lives from what? The so called virus is a decoy and a hoax. The real issue here is the ushering in of the New World Order, inscribed on the American dollar bill as “Novus Ordo Seclorum”. This is a massive social experiment that seeks to condition and sensitive the world populace to the coming mark of the beast. The mask-wearing ritual is a precursor thereto, so is the infrared temperature gun aimed at your forehead, and most probably the coming vaccine or other transhumanist technologies like the RFID chip or Neurolink. Notice how the aforementioned subjects afford you access into stores; medical facilities like hospitals and clinics; education centers; public transport and buildings… aka economic activities?

      Now compare that to the book of Revelation prophecy:

      “And he (the false prophet) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” – Revelation 13:16-17.

      This is a spiritual warfare. And has absolutely nothing to do with saving lives (from an invisible pathogen at that). But this is about population control, and so is Social distancing. Wearing a mask is ‘virtual signaling’ to the world declaring your allegiance to the government and by extension to satan as you will soon find out. Let’s repent and accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior that we may be saved. God bless you.

    • What about people who can’t wear a mask because of a health breathing problems?. What about disabled people autistic? How are they supposed to live today? What about the poor who can’t afford to buy their expensive masks? What about those who believe that God doesn’t ask us to cover his image. We are made in the image of God. God tells us to boldly tell the Gospel to save souls. The devil is trying to stop that. It is the next life that matters because it is eternal

      • @MM This is well said! Very well said! Sad that people genuinely believe a mask can save a life, let alone a soul.

  • This guy’s a paster?n Really?
    Not a particularly good one I might add as well. I might not mean much to straighten this guy on his use of terms but Mark of the lamb really? Nowhere in Revelations says the mark of the Lamb If he’s a paster then he should know what words are used.
    It’s called the Seal of god BTW not the mark of the Lamb. Wearing a mask shows you worship Satan or man. It doesn’t show you worship God. And as for his statements about a Vaccine not being the mark of the beast. He’s the more likely way the heck off the mark. I dare him and anyone else to watch this.
    https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=AwrWmjnjvklfl2cAEAAnnIlQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNncTEEcG9zAzEEdnRpZANDMDE1NV8xBHNlYwNzYw–?p=human+2.0+bill+gates+vaccine&fr=yhs-mozilla-100&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-100#id=5&vid=8af0813a7254c5bef762852943ecd0c6&action=view
    The seal is invisible to people yes for only God can see it and it’s from scripture the holy spirit. But the mark: while it could be invisible you have to know what limits Satan has and what powers God has, before making any judgments as to whether or not the mark is visible or not. For one Satan is limited as to what he knows and can see or not.
    Remember too the parable of the wheat and tares. Jesus says an enemy/Satan came and sowed his own seed among the good seed and when it grew it was hard to tell the two apart. God told them no leave the tares for if you pull them up now you may also kill or pull up the wheat as well. He said to wait until the harvest meaning the end of the age and then he will separate the wheat from the tares. Just like being born from water is a public display of your worship of god masks are your public display of worshiping satan or mans ways. God sees in the heart meaning if were legit or not. Meaning if were hearers of the word and not doers as well. or what our motivation is for something. Satan can’t so satan needs a visible thing as in the mask and or getting a vaccine or not.
    As in do not be a friend of the world for if you are a friend of the world you are an enemy of Christ.
    The world/Govt says to wear a mask. The world says to take a vaccine etc.
    Notice if you do watch that video Lucifer is in one of the terms used. As in worship his image name or number.
    Worship is also termed as OBEY! not just warming a pew on Saturday or Sunday or whatever day you may or may not go to church.
    This guy’s a deceiver and his motivation is deceiving people into slumber so they will take the mark while using guile and sophistry. ANd who is this he is using above as a phantom in his statement that doesn’t deserve it?
    Jesus? if so Yes Jesus deserves our attention. Satan? Satan is not a phantom he’s real as we are real. He’s not just some lack of chemicals in our brain that makes us think he’s real as those who don’t believe in God will say. He’s Angel one of god’s created beings that were once part of the heavenlies. Now he isn’t. Satan has been transformed into an angel of light as scripture says. Meaning he’s a preacher/pastor as well and not some demon that most think of with two horns and a pitchfork. Satan’s motivation is to deceive people so he won’t be alone in the Judgement he doesn’t care if you live or die so he’s not just out to kill people he knows all wicked and righteous will be resurrected and judged. All he cares about is whether you’re found guilty or innocent in the Judgement like he’s going to be.
    ignorance is not bliss so don’t count on that for God will judge whether or not you were willfully ignorant or not.
    This is the not a but the Tribulation no other time in history has Satan been able to rule the whole world with lies half-truths and deceit like he has now. I’d watch the video if you’re even legit.
    But people pay more attention to the mark of the beast than to the seal of God because that’s the most important part is to not miss out on immortality by getting the mark. It’s not less important to get the seal but it’s easier to see or know what the seal is than it is to know what the mark of the beast is.

    • @csaaphill… again well said. However, I wish you could differentiate between the small-letter ‘god’ and God when you write. Otherwise good points you raising in your comments.

  • Plus I left out part of the mark of the beast is his number. Remember to those who truly follow all of this and keep up with some of the news that the liberal media won’t show you, is that for mask mandates to be no longer used is this vaccine we hear all the time. Not all stores enforce mask mandates but those that do are in part using it as the mark of the beast. Meaning not letting you buy or sell. But and if you watch or if my post is ever shown, I left a link in my other post that went to a video. But before mask mandates will be lifted a vaccine will have to become a reality. And not sure if anyone else has watched another video on these coronavirus tracers but there is one that talks about how without the vaccine and or the app of this thing you won’t be able to buy or sell. meaning if you get a vaccine you will be given a number or som Vaccine ID that shows you’ve gotten it. This app she talked about in her video talks about those QR codes that will be downloaded onto your smartphone and before being allowed to enter the restaurant store or where ever you will have to prove to them you have your Vaccine number or ID and they will use a computer or cell phone to download it to make sure you are legit.
    So yeah think twice before making a lame statement about vaccines not being the mark or that some medical thing not being the mark for from my other video link it most certainly can and maybe!
    As I said Lucifer is in the other video’s term for some of the technology being used for this vaccine.
    Don’t let this guy or anyone tell you it’s not until you’ve read scripture for yourself and or researched all this other stuff as well.
    If people keep saying no it’s not this or that and if their wrong you listened to them and only have yourself to blame not them. This guy deceives either by ignorance or by design it’s his job to, but it’s you’re job to not let him.

    • The writer is wrong about the Mark. The microchip or electronic tattoo (and vaccine) is the Mark, and I’ll explain why. The Mark contains elements which will change your dna to that of the fallen (nephilim). Ask yourself why the vaccine (and soon the microchip) will be demanded to be accepted BY THE ENTIRE WORLD. If it were not the Mark of the Beast, this would not be a priority. You’re seeing the False Prophet (Pope) pushing this along with it’s creator, Bill Gates (who has btw no medical background whatsoever, whose “vaccines” have been proven to be not only faulty, but deadly). There is an agenda to depopulate the globe, to basically destroy humanity. The Lord has given many messengers warnings directly through words during prayer about this microchip. He stated succinctly that the MICROCHIP IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST, IT CONTAINS DNA FROM THE FALLEN AND THOSE WHO TAKE IT (WILLINGLY – THOSE WHO ARE FORCED TO TAKE IT UNWILLINGLY WILL BE PROTECTED BY HIM) WILL HAVE THEIR DNA CHANGED, THEY WILL BE NO LONGER HUMAN, AND CANNOT BE REDEEMED – HE CANNOT PROTECT THEM. The Lord also stated: “MANY WILL SAY IN THAT DAY, JESUS WILL UNDERSTAND, JESUS WILL FORGIVE, BUT I CANNOT GO AGAINST MY WORD”. If you accept the Beast system, you will go where he goes – ultimately to eternal decimation – the Lake of Fire. Many will take this Mark, as there will be tremendous social pressure to take it. You can already see the lead-up to this issue with the so-called COVID-19 “Pandemic”, forcing people (or attempting to) to wear a mask, unofficially taking their “voice” away. This is for the AI systems to be able to identify people without facial recognition, but tracking through body language and gesture. This is not rocket science, those who take this microchip/vaccine (the vaccine has in it not only the nephilim dna, but nanotech that will be activated when the Beast system it turned on. You can listen to a testimony of one of the scientists who helped develop the microchip, Carl Sanders, explain what it does and how it works. I’ve found others who do not believe the microchip is the Mark, it is astounding to me that they do not know this. The microchip directly connects the bearer to the Beast system (computer system originating from Brussels, Belgium). This system will soon be implemented worldwide, connecting all nations and peoples just as the world wide web is doing. It is a substitute for the natural abilities inherent in all people, the telekinetic, telepathic ability to communicate without the aid of an electronic device. Oh, By the way, the 5G system that was being implemented in your schools, cities, and towns during the “lockdown” from the “Pandemic” (that has been admitted to not existing – it was a “test run”) is the only system fast enough and strong enough to carry the amount of data that would be housed if every man, woman, and child’s personal history, medical, dental, educational, etc. information were to be uploaded. I hate how people can be so deceived about something that is so plain and obvious it simply beggars description. I’d call you fools, but I think that would be a compliment. Christ is warning those who are listening! You must be listening to catch the message. Know that you are being set up – this system has already been implemented, and will soon be running. It already is in China and Australia, and if you research how these societies have been stripped of every freedom and dignity available to humans, you should be able to deduce that it’s extremely evil. WAKE UP!!!!

      • The riddle of a SECRET- The secret which is hidden, is always hidden by using the same secret/secrets which are used to keep the secret hidden.
        CORONA ,
        but then again this is why secrets stay hidden when none can see the secret which was hidden.

        I know this, as I have collected things which are always hidden with secrets hiding the secret.
        Now- understand what is being hidden for such a global event-
        Must be a big secret-
        Anyway- does not matter-
        Perhaps if things were whispers and not shouts-
        My point of view would have been known and words of mine have no value, worthless they are, with no status they come, but even I still have an eye which has clarity of an eye far away from me.

        But these words came without status and not a purchase nor sold.
        A value which not known-
        GOD

        have a great day- bring the torches and feathers with pain- all have that right.
        But it will not change – difference between GOD/god remains the same.

        In truth I expect nothing less then a reaction–

        A few words shared versus- those vast volumes, of knowing much more, when a few was all that was needed and none no more.

  • To be in truth, these things I will say: The MARK of the BEAST, is what is written on the skin. These are the deeds, the MARK, which covers the skin. They can not be hidden, for these are covering the skin. For all to see it is written and worn outside upon the skin. So that all may know that the beast is within. Can not hide what is written and covers the skin. ( Ownership )

    So simple – even for those whom have simple minded thinking, even lacking problem solving all still can.
    GOD is shared and free.
    How can the ONE which all know so clear with clarity be sold and a purchase for golden tickets in the lines they stand with a view so wonderful waiting ahead? ( But never a thought about that view- is all have the same view- 2 half moons with the same lunar eye )
    All those that claim and shout status as such, are the ones whom stand in the front of those lines. They have golden tickets and shiny things. ( But GOD is not – so simple it is. Yet all stand there ready for a paradise reward. When paradise surrounds and look at paradise and expect another reward? )
    The Master arrived long ago- A god to be and the rewards? Paradise after paradise -until there are no more.
    –god wills it! They always shout, from both sides they do shout-
    But GOD does not do such things- GOD does not a purchase or a sold for all to have that light for paradise a reward.
    only the master whom is wants to be a god- perhaps there will be that legacy for Mankind, united they are- with one god all have- shouting they do and billions they are, shouting god wills it together.
    Paradise of others will be each reward and paradise surrounds mankind now-
    Nobody values paradise- but expect another as rewards–one by one could be paradise no more.

    Ponder a point of view which is mine. ( I have no tickets, promises not, nor has this been a purchase or a sold )
    I know GOD
    this was free and shared – ( GOD does not shine down upon me- but I know GOD with clear clarity. )
    How did this happen?
    So simple for all to know and see- yet where will you stand when the time has come? After all- you have time and GOD removes – end of time ( another riddle of whom is here and whom will come )
    Ponder in depth before you make your stand- choose everything – as everything is what surrounds you in paradise. ( look at what paradise has become- is this mankinds legacy? )

  • the immune system is good but you need vaccinations the germs the viruses the infections and cancer and the dieses and the other germ and stuff the germs are part of the devil so the vaccinations are part of god it improves the immune system if you believe in god then get updated to the vaccinations make sure that you have of all of the vaccinations and get the heath checked up on a regular basis.

  • The mark of the beast is likely 2 things. The mandatory face mask! Which is a sign of Submission to Allah! The mask is worn on the FRONT OF YOUR HEAD ….. ur face

    It’s purposes is to Hide who you are! And who you are is in Genesis 1:27 God made man in His like image!

    medicines and vaccines especially these new ones which will modify your DNA are to essentially create a new generation of nephilim…. which are NOT of God.
    They Are an abomination created when the watchers from Genesis 6:4 committed the unforgivable sin! Which is to say they blurred the lines between angel and man which is talked about in Genesis 6:4
    And in the New Testament Jesus stared that Angels don’t marry and are not given in marriage! But the watchers did! And Enoch the 7 th from Adam is the witness to that!

    As for the chip it to is of the beast your bank card now is the preliminary and eventually you’ll be required to be chipped in your right hand! It will hold your ID, your bank info drivers license everything! And you won’t be able to do anything if you don’t have it!

  • Well scripture said you would come. Those many false prophets with intellectual word skills to mislead with. You are obviously a part of the main wave to assault the truth and corral people into deception. The MOB is a physical implanted chip that will be the purchasing agent replacing cash. You can’t buy seek or trade without it. Your eyes are closed to the truth and you’ve been given over to believe and promote only lies. If anyone wants to read the full art isle and follow up updates of “The MOB Solution” go to my prop page titled “Prophecy Fulfillment” on Facebook.

  • I fail to see how being well-informed of what is happening in the world around us and recognizing the evil connection in order to call evil what it is could possibly be glorifying satan and his demons. They are fallen angels wreaking havoc on our world, but Christ shed His blood and gave Himself as a sacrifice to cover our sins. He was the victor, He is the victor, and He will continue to be the victor over the enemy always! There is no focus on the Beast by calling out his ploys to come to steal, kill, and destroy. That was his purpose from day one and will continue to be his purpose until the day God throws him into the Lake of Fire where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth for all eternity. The focus here is on God!

    Saying the mask is the precursor for the mark of the beast and that the vaccine plays some part in bringing about the mark that will allow people to buy and sell or prevent people from buying or selling, is not to glorify the Beast but to make people aware of the devil’s schemes and point them to God. Again, the focus is on God.

    He always has been and always will be my focus, even when I bring awareness to the evil around us. This is not me being emotional; this is me being aware of my surroundings. That said, many missed Jesus Christ because he was not a governmental savior. The people expected the savior would overthrow the government. Instead, the government crucified Him. And on the third day, God showed His omnipotent power over the enemy when He raised Christ from death. He ascended into heaven to sit at the right hand of God until the day and the hour that He will be sent back for the Church. Until that day, brothers and sisters, we must stand firm, putting on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). He will be our Strength and our Protector. But beware! Many will miss the signs before Christ returns again because the devil prowls about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). Because of this increase in wickedness, the love of most (some translations say “most” while others say “many”) will grow cold. Here is that scripture in context.

    “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilence, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginnings of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Matthew 24:4-13 (KJV)

    Do not let anyone convince you that being aware of what is going on means you’re placing emphasis on satan, the enemy of our souls. Remember, satan imitates truth but can never be filled with or exhibit truth because he is the prince of lies. God is the victor!

    Be vigilant, stay aware, stand firm, watch and pray, and continue to look up for our redemption draws near!

  • This is how I see it they are gonna keep C-19 around for a while, they running out of change and you can’t reall y clean money that well and credit cards are always messing up , so what’s next the the chip in the right hand or the mark on the forehead and I’m not getting neither of them

  • Let bible interpretation be the job of the priests. In Indonesia, the prophecy of vaccine combined with tech chip was already around about 10 years ago. When we thought these priests must be looney. Thts like MATRIX movie. 10 yeara ago not even tech people can digest this . Some of These priests Dont even read news ,watch TV or even internet.

    And if you can not relate the situation now,where its going and tge relationship with the vaccine Then you will never see it ever. This is a time where people choose. This is a time where Satan doesnt need to cover up his work in a sheep coat. His people WILL choose him anyway regardless.

    • The Mark of the Beast… Obviously this is the vaccine. Remember, “paper money always finds its intrinsic value, zero”. And that is what this is all about… Preplanned destruction of the global fiat worthless paper money system. Central banking has been the Trojan Horse of every country. Once the central bank franchise is in place, it usurps all government leaders and laws. “I care not who makes the laws, as long as I control the monetary system” Rothschild.

      All wars have been bankers wars, specifically to place the central banking franchise in the targeted country. Before 911, all of the Middle Eastern countries did not have the franchise. After 911, the US propagandized the false flag event into going into the Middle East. The last two countries were North Korea and Iran, and I believe they have accomplished placing the franchise quietly and recently. There is now a central bank franchise in every country, and here is the key… the mother ship of all central banks is the Bank of International Settlements, who building’s architecture replicates the Tower of Babel!

      The point? We are already in a one world government. The Vatican and their Jesuit military has used the US military industrial complex to take over the world. The US went bankrupt in 1933, which is when this country had the Genesis 42 moment, all giving away their land and gold and wealth just to eat. The bankers have secretly devised a collateral system, globally, whereas all stocks, bonds, and real estate (via mortgages, structured Wall Street securities), and the name of this collateral “trust” is CEDE and Company. Wikipedia – US investors do not own their stocks and bonds. CEDE, in Latin, meaning to give away, surrender, is the collateral used when central banks loan money to countries.

      That means that the US has indeed been a Fascist country since then, as depicted through their iconography with Fasces next to the podium on the Senate floor, on the Supreme Court gate, on top of the nations Capital (under Columbia-Queen of Heaven depicting Semiramis), THERE are Fasces everywhere. Fasci being a Roman symbol of countrol. CEDE is the nominal owner, you are the beneficial owner, thus all stock is held by them, and they are the stockholders of all companies throughout the world, which is why all companies today are completely compliant to the mask wearing necessity.

      We are also already in a “one world currency”, given the FACT that all currencies are irredeemable fiat worhtless paper money. Biblically, the scripture says that all wealth is wiped out in an hour. This is how “they” wipe the whole world out of their perceived nonexistent false wealth, by zeroing out the currency globally, and by divulging to all that they own all of the collateralized debt in CEDE. Central banking controls the government, governments do not control central banks. Who is behind this Tower of Babel power, the central bankers that own CEDE? The Vatican/Knights Templars of old.

      What is left? The one world religion. This religion is the ecumenical movement, headed by the Pope of course, the false prophet along with all of the sell out Protestant pastors who fall in line. The one world religion is Sun Worship, Babylonian, which is why heliocentricity is indoctrinated to all, and why Nimrod’s penis, aka, the Washington monument, and Semiramis, the Statue of Liberty, is highlighted. Remember, Washington is in the Smithsonian as a statue of Zeus, aka, baphomet, and whose monument is 6666 inches high, and 666 inches wide.

      The “vaccine” Mark will eventually be forced using Romans 13, and will be distributed by FEMA and our military, AND churches. The vaccine is money, it is a means of control with nanobots in your bloodstream, and will be tied to the 5 G towers. The 5 G towers are tied into the Microsoft server “The Beast”, (actually called that). THIS IS the abomination of desolation that occurs in the Temple, yes, THE third temple (not some idiotic concept of a building being built in Jerusalem), usurping the blood of Jesus and one’s salvation. Daily sacrifices will stop, because you will lose your free will to follow Jesus. Iron and Clay do not mix! There will be a illuminated (Lucifer the light bearer) Tatoo on your right wrist or forehead.

      This is a global takeover from covert Fascism to overt Totalitarianism. Think about it, knowing that the false monetary construct is fake, its going to upset a whole lot of people. Once “vaccined”, the masses can be controlled. Satan took over countries from the inside out, and Satan wants to take over people from the inside out. All one has to do is look at the American Medical Associations logo, the “AMA”, which shows a snake wrapped around a human spine, and a Caduseus (thief, Roman) ascending upwards. This is where Satan exalts himself in the Temple, standing in God’s Temple, usurping the blood of Jesus. This whole thing is about killing souls. Nimrod, the great hunter, OF SOULS. The beast is governmental. It is both Temporal and Spiritual power, meaning, governing and spiritual control. The only country that currently has both power, is Rome. Church and State power under Lucifer. The United Nations was founded by/funded by Lucifer Trust, now Lucious Trust. Obama will be Secretary General, lifted up by the Jesuit army, Barack Obama’s name meaning “lightning from Heaven”.

    I would like to see all the scientific evidence you have personally poured over to prove that vaccines are safe, necessary and actually do what they’re supposed to do.
    Please show me your evidence of how to prove wrong the thousands of scientists all over the planet who have evidence that vaccines are worthless and can (and do) harm people.
    Please show me that you have done that research yourself before you start telling me I am unchristian for opposing vaccines.

  • “the “mark” is not at all something that could be accidentally taken either.

    Why? Because the mark of the beast (Rev. 13:16-18) is a mark that is closely tied to the worship of the beast (13:12, 15; cf. 19:20; 20:4). Thus, the mark of the beast is a mark of loyalty and devotion to the beast.”

    Oh man you haven’t even understood the rulerrs above government is representing the beast in this world

  • Didn’t people wear mask a hundred years ago? Weren’t some shamed for not wearing one. Pandemics have been happening for as long as man has been on earth.

    • > Didn’t people wear mask a hundred years ago?

      The same deep reasoning skills then also supported the widely accepted notion the earth was flat despite the obvious proof to the contrary as now for this feckless face cover.

  • To the author – be aware that you will be held accountable for misleading people with your article. Expose yourself for who you are – an agent of evil. Anyone who reads this, do not listen to this deception in this article.

    Do no be mistaken – the mark of the beast is a tangible, concrete sign. It can be a medical device or possibly a vaccine. Why would you take the chance with your soul if a technology was created to hijack your own bodily functions at the cellular level? The mark is already here in many forms. Educate yourself and repent!!!

    Also, there is no such thing as the “mark” of the lamb. God doesn’t “mark” his people. He seals them spiritually. There is a seal of God on the forehead for the Lord’s people that is discussed in the Book of Revelation. The Lord’s peoples’ names are listed in the Lamb’s Book of Life. This is everyone who has been born again of the Holy Spirit of God.

    Do not be deceived!!! Believe in Him (Jesus) and Him only and know the Bible for yourself!!!!

    • > God doesn’t “mark” his people

      False. You are marked by baptism.

      Read your bible more closely and the explanatory documents of the organization who authoritatively assembled the bible.

  • This is the 3rd time in the last few weeks that I have heard someone mention that the mark will be spiritual or something like that, not physical. Most people seem to be on one or the other team, physical or spiritual. That could be dangerous because some of us will miss it. Let’s just all be humble enought to say we don’t know and look for it in both forms. Also, we need to be considering ways to barter and exchange goods. If you have ideas, businesses that can do this we need to start considering these things now.

  • The one thing that perplexes me more than any covid-19 restriction, is the way the majority of pastors react to this situation by spiritualizing everything about the mark, revelation and the Bible in general. In 70 AD the Jews and followers of Jesus who didn’t take Jesus’ prophecy in Luke 21, 20 literal, were slaughtered by Titus, a type of the antichrist. Yes, direct obedience to a prophetic word of Jesus often looks ridiculous and harmful. “Flee to the mountains? That can not be meant literal!” the Christian “scholar” of the time might have said, using all kinds of fine theological arguments to avoid direct obedience to a Word that would jeopardize his convenient state and statue in life. In the end he was piled up on a hill of corpses and no one will dare to say that he was martyred for his faith.

  • I have a few comments:

    1.) I agree that, in many people’s view, making the choice to take or not take a mark equals saving your own soul. But didn’t Christ already save your soul, without any work of your own? This understanding of Scripture actually negates Christ’s sacrifice and places salvation in ones own hands. This is the old work’s righteousness again raising its ugly head.

    If you are a strict literalist, then you MUST answer this:

    2.) “…causes ALL to receive a mark, (then the writer adds a Trinitarian statement, which drives home the point that there will be no one who is exempted)…both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave.”

    Notice it doesn’t say there are ANY exceptions. If you are made to receive the mark, then you know you were never really saved, and your fate is sealed.

    I believe God, who according to a few places in Scripture, DOES NOT HAVE TO DO WHAT HE DECREES, (see conversation with Moses where God says He will destroy all the people of Israel, except Moses), actually tells us that for our sake, He will cut those days short. What days? The days of the end times, where He spells out His plan. (Again, one that He is NOT obligated to carry out in history) So in order for Scripture to harmonize, God will make certain that all the saved will be killed, (just as Christ told His disciples would happen), BEFORE the mark is administered. In fact, God doesn’t even need for this part of His plan to become a reality. (Even Butthead knows “Beavis, you dumb-ass, dead people can’t use money!” [Beavis and Butthead Christmas special] The saved will have no need to buy or sell, because they will be dead/raptured.) He could come again before any of it. And those who are telling God what He HAS to do before He comes will be surprised, won’t they? I think that just at the moment, in the twinkling of an eye, that our lives are taken, we saved who remain will be caught up and the end will happen, without any mark, plagues, trumpets, destruction of the Whore, etc. Or He can carry out any or all of this, and as much as I have problems with the concept, this would be tantamount to a Pre-trib rapture. A literalist knows that no where in Scripture does it say that we have a choice to receive a mark. It says those who HAD NOT received the mark will reign. (Rev.20) That will include all the saved throughout history. Now, it DOES SAY that those who “would not worship the image of the Beast will be killed.” But this part of his cancellable plan could refer to people like Jews and Muslims, who will remain true to their beliefs and not worship images. (Sadly, this will not gain their salvation though) No where does the Bible identify those who are killed for not worshipping with the saved. Again, Revelation 20 makes clear that the saved will not have worshipped the image. Why? Because they were not alive when called upon to worship or God will have already come BEFORE He allowed this part of His plan to be carried out.

    He will have “cut those days short for the sake of the elect.“ Is this not what He says He will do?

    3.) Re: the mark being “in” the hand/forehead:

    I point out that this is true in Rev. 13. But in Revelation 20, it says “UPON the forehead”. (KJV)

    So which is it? Well, it could be either. It’s important to know that in Greek, as in Latin, the applicable word can be translated a number of ways. The Latin word “in” can mean “in,on or upon”. The translator must decide which is best. Could it be that whether it is “on”, “ in”, or “upon” is rather irrelevant? The point is HAVING the mark, not exactly where or how applied, isn’t it. Let’s not get all caught up in minutiae and miss the bigger point, eh?

    The other thing some people will not consider re:the mark, is that “hand” can refer to your works,labor or actions, and “forehead” to your thoughts, understandings and feelings”. So this can mean that your entire being has been sealed for Satan. (And by your choice to worship Mammon instead) You think and act according Satans wishes and not Gods.

    In closing. I urge all to heed the warning at the end of Revelation and not add or subtract from the text. I even wonder if this is the great deception that may even fool the elect, spoken of in Scripture. I do not judge the many devoted Christians, most of whom live more righteous lives than myself, for falling into this end-time prophecy pit. I merely offer my hand, which is really not mine, but the hand of Christ and say “Grab hold, my friend-let’s get you out of that pit”. I believe Christ would have us be very careful not to read into texts, to come to know and use ALL of Scripture in judging end times matters, and to “leave behind Father,Mother and Brother”, (i.e. the traditions and teachings of your fellowships experience), and simply follow His voice. the voice of the Good Shepherd.

  • Well from a man who had a experience years ago it’s certainly lining up well to be the mark of Revelations ! Do you really want to risk it if your wrong ?!

    “Revelations
    As fantastic as B’s journey was, he was gifted with even more. B writes that Jesus came to him. He could feel the power of Jesus. Then B describes what Jesus wore, a white robe, with a sash, a golden ribbon from his shoulder to his waist. B saw his bare feet, the color of golden brown.

    This description corresponds to the image reported by G. Vale Owen in his communications from higher spirits. They paint a picture of a powerful spirit, who has compassion and love in every fiber of his body. They also tell of his simple dress with a sash and bare feet.

    Jesus presented B with another vision, a look at the future. This is what he was told:

    “Jesus started to tell me of things to come and what to look out for in my life time. I received a totally immersed vision from him similar to the life review experience. Jesus went into detail about the new currency bartering system that the governments with impose on every one on Earth.

    Stage 1: Micro-chipping for “personal security identification” will be used for healthcare and eventually for currency/bartering.

    Stage 2: Nanotechnology injection into the blood system

    Stage 3: DNA resonance reading

    Note (LUCIFERase is DNA resonance reading )!

    https://lifesciences.tecan.com/scientific-citation/Global-DNA-Methylation-Detection-System-Using-MBD-Fused-Luciferase-Based-on-Bioluminescence-Resonance-Energy-Transfer-Assay

    Note: Jesus showed me these technologies will cause signs of cancerous lesions on people’s skin. They looked like small hematoma bleeds all over the body. The Lord will intervene soon after that. But no man will know when. I was shown what my future work/careers would be.”[xvii]

    This all happened to B in 1993. The idea of planting a device in every person doesn’t sound farfetched today. Nanotechnology and interpreting DNA are both growing by leaps and bounds. Whereas, if you had heard this in the early nineties most of us would have been incredulous.”

    Revelations 13 KJV
    16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

    17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

    Yes, it says we will receive the mark in our right hand or forehead. This may explain that.
    This is an audio tape shared with churches made by a man who was an engineer working on RFID chips in the 90s. He became a Christian and quit and started warning the church.

They discovered that the greatest fluctuation in body temperature was the right hand and forehead at the hairline.

    He had asked scientist at one time what would happen if the RFID chip/battery malfunctioned. They stated it would cause a painful sore.
    Revelation 16:1-2 KJV
    16 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

    2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.

    I feel this academic article is very dangerous and deceiving. God says there will be a mark. Therefore there will be a mark. Not a state of mind. I have heard a low educated Christian say they guess they would have to take if it meant feeding their children. God says you will be doomed if you do and that my people perish from a lack of knowledge. Satan comes to lie, steal and destroy. And in the end times there will be a Great Apostasy, a turning away from the truth and many false prophets.
    We might would say what about forgiveness? Gates plans to include a DNA altering substance in vaccine. Scientist claim they have found the God gene that gives us our spirituality. If they remove this gene and you are no longer able to experience spirituality then what? Are you no longer human, just a GMO? A genetically modified organism. Subhuman?

    When I saw this many years ago I took it with a grain of salt. Now I wonder. I have often wondered if the beast is the computer. God gave us this information for a reason. To identify. Who could understand the number of a man’s name 2000 years ago?
    Revelation 13:18
    King James Version
    18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

    For the person trying to tag Trump as the antichrist I am reminded of the scripture of the Pharisees accusing Christ as casting out demons by satan. And Christ responding that satan wouldn’t work against himself. Trump has done more for Christianity than any President in my lifetime. Declaring Jesus Lord and Savior, putting Christ back in Christmas, acknowledging the death and resurrection of Christ at Easter, prayers in Jesus name, etc.
    It is Marxist Muslim Obama that is responsible for the division in our nation as a master of the communist mantra “divide and conquer” and has left us with the new Democratic Socialist Communist Marxist Globalist Atheist Islamic LGBT Party of corruption, division, destruction, lies, deception, death and evil. The OBAMAnation. The old party of slavery, Jim Crow and the KKK (their terrorist group now replaced with their NAZI style Brown Shirts, Communist Antifa and Marxist BLM. And they will enslave us all with their Socialist Communist Marxist Globalist agenda if we do not destroy them once and for all with our vote. For they are the party of slavery.

  • Acts 17 defines a “mark” (same as used of the “mark” of the beast).

    17:16 – city full of idols
    17:22 – people had a fear/dread of demons
    17:23 – they built with their hands an altar/pedestal to offer worship
    17:29 – definition of a mark given: “a mark, formed by man’s skill/craft and imagination/thoughts”

    = THEIR DREAD/FEAR OF DEMONS (THOUGHTS/IMAGINATION) CAUSED THEM TO MAKE AN OBJECT (HANDS – SKILL/CRAFT)

    Today, man tells us it’s viruses, germs and bacteria that cause illness instead of what Jesus told us – demons/unclean spirits.

    So, do you not find it a coincidence that from the start of this THEY TOLD EVERYONE TO MAKE MASKS ourselves?

    Satan does not cast out Satan. They got everyone to believe that viruses are the danger, not unclean spirits/demons as the cause of illness.

    Therefore, unclean/spirits are no longer cast out – Satan does NOT cast out Satan. We are barking up the wrong tree!

    Bacteria – “rod/staff”
    Germ – “to bud/sprout”
    Virus – “venom/poison”

  • Bill Gates took out a patent on covid back in 2015 . Patent number 060606. He also has a patent on an luminescent gel substance that will be a part of the covid vaccine injection. When subjected to a specific light it glows and will notify the observer that you have been vaccinated. The gel is named Luciferase. Honeslty , google it. Patent 060606 and Luciferase. Now if you still don’t think the covid vaccine is the mark of the beast I can’t help you.

  • Has anyone ever seen that new watchman commercial? That is a actual chip but for medical reasons i see. It shows an old man running off a pier with two kids into a lake. My guess even though they are more than likely his grandkids, my guess is the undermeaning is once it’s in a old man fo health reasons kids and or babies will have to have this soon enough. But for now it is voluntery so…
    Antichrist isn’t nor will it ever be a man but Babylong or the beast is Govt’s and or systems around the world as in Globalism. Masks if not the mark are being used as and shall die doesn’t necesarily mean die right then but over time.
    and or with Transhumanism being a thing and not just a conspiracy artificial immortality might be what that means.
    Satan has to copycat Gods natural world with unatural means. God gives a promise of Immortality but through supernatural or natural means but immortality through haveing your consciousness transfered over to a clone one could virtually gain immortality that way but if you don’t do it then you should die…
    all kinds of ways scriture fulfills itself and not always the literal of what people see but in a spiritual way but still literal.

  • A small reprisal from what I’ve said and mainly as awarning so as some wont be caught unawares.
    Ok I’ve said they aren’t or may not be and that could still be true, but still they could be, masks I mean. For one they are mandated by people playing God, they stand in the holy place reserved to God and God alone. As in they are the abomination of desolations. Meaning Antichrist if you want to call it that, is a system not a person. and the Babylong whore is part of that system along with the beast system.
    But with all that they could be even if not universally since you can be sanctioned without them from being able to buy or sell so…???
    So… that said if so then with this Beast worshipping woman coming into power, Kamala who worships devils, and even now, before she even takes the thrown her and Biden are already destroying us so…
    Meaning as it says, Babylon as a system although it covers places like the USA UK, Russia, China, etc… and all fall as in when the angel throws the millstone into the sea… More likely the sea of peoples nations tongues and multitudes and then Babylon falls by violence. Scripture does say this so you can’t stop it, for they don’t repent and still curse god…
    and we are now a habitation of devils and may already be past the mark now…
    But I still say don’t wear masks regardless since that’s an ongoing thing, don’t take any vaccine whether its Pfizers, Moderna’s Johnson& Johnosn or Astrazeneca or any…
    THe west coast has now shutt down again or a pause and from what I seen in the AP travel restrictions are in place and those who travel out of these states must or are told to quarantine FFFF em but…
    Darker days are coming don’t give in your soul and a promised immortal body that’s naturally Immortal and not a whisp, or ghost or harps and clouds like most think, plus his kingdom comes here….
    battle of Armageddon is now I believe and not some big battle in the vally of megedo as they’ve taught.
    Those who lead into captivity will be lead into captivity…
    So yeah again so people aren’t caught wihtout their armor, we could be past the mark, but watch for both the mark to still come or that possibility we’re past that and close to the vile judgements…
    So yeah the democraps couldn’t wait to get into power,and now we’re seeing their tyranny.
    Medical martial law has basically been declared!

    • csaaphill I agree with most of the things you’ve said, but I beg to differ with the assertion that we might be past the mark of the beast already. For the falling away hasn’t taken place yet, and the man of sin, the son of perdition hasn’t been revealed yet (Antichrist/the beast) – 2 Thessalonians 2:3

  • Hello Tavis Bohlinger. I don’t agree at all about what you’re saying about COVID-19 not being tide to last Antichrist. Via the word Antichrist. Taking freedom from people is that not Antichrist? Distroying the economy is that not Antichrist? Giving life to the Beast…. A-i is that not Antichrist? have you watched on Nextflix the documentary about social media platforms “the social dilemma” If you haven’t you should. What I believe God our Savior Jesus Yeshua is asking us to do if 1st lookup ask for Holy Spirit direction and furthermore don’t be Naive to how technology and social influence is definitely apart of the Rise of One World Order (government) Furthermore we as believers should be thinking about Ephesians 6:10-18 and paying attention to Revelation 6:12-17 Our Heavenly Father maid it clear when we start seeing these things look up. I like how you want to encourage fellow christians to look up. But don’t you be naive about sign of the time.

    • Hi Samuel. I have to agree with Tavis Bohlinger. C-19 has got nothing to do with Bible Prophecy. Its a medical thing and it is not the 1st Pandemic and it won’t be the last. On U tube if look at the Eschatology of Dr Ken Gentry or R C Sproul I believe they can prove from Scripture and from Church History that the 666, the Beast, TMOTB, the unable to buy or sell thing, the man of sin, etc etc have got nothing to do whatsoever with the 21 st Century but they all found their total fulfillment in the 1st Century. Google them up have a look.

    • Hi Samuel. I have to agree with what Tavis B. is saying. C-19 and vaccines etc have got nothing to do with Bible Prophecy. It’s simply a serious worldwide medical problem. There has been pandemics in the past and there will be more in the future as experts have always predicted. The Prophecies about the 666, TMOTB, the not been able to buy and sell and the man of sin were all totally fulfilled in the 1st century and have nothing to do whatsoever with the 21st Century. See on U Tube Dr Ken Gentry and/or R C Sproul.

  • I am stunned by all the comments about the mask being the mark, the responses toward the government mandates being just to soften us so we become like Nazi Germany, vaccines being the mark! Heaven help us! The mark has to do with worship of God as the article said. I appreciate the article very much and am going to use it tonight in our Bible study. And btw, in the end the judgment is not going to be between the liberals and conservatives, or the Democrats and Republicans. It is going to be between the lovers and the haters (see the sheep and the goats Jesus talks about in Matthew 25.)

  • I know of no reputable biblical scholar or theologian who would endorse that the COVID-19 quarantine or a vaccine is related to the “mark of the beast”. For starters, in Revelation, the “mark of the beast” is by no means a medical procedure. Most likely, it’s not even a physical or visible mark at all.

    Where do they take your temperature?
    Where is one of the marks of the beast?

    Ever think a scorpions tail is in fact a needle and Kevlar iron armor?
    Notice how they are starting to say you can’t do anything if not vaccinated?

  • The truth of the matter is that virus is being used by world leaders to install a one world government that will be led by the antichrist. Just look already how it’s being used as a political weapon and fear to control people as freedoms are being taken away and lives are being ruined. The world needs to wake up and resist! Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the church. If you know you’re Bible then you know this isn’t nonsense if you don’t please pray and start reading, asking God for His help. All one has to do is look around at what is being done and compare Scripture with Scripture and you’ll have all the proof you need. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever!

    • > freedoms are being taken away

    • You shall be able to travel again, but there’s a condition attached to it now: You’d need to be vaccinated, and eventually be chipped or take the coming mark of the beast. As for your old freedom and way of life, forget it! That’s gone! There’s a “new normal” now. You shall NEVER go anywhere without having to produce a pass. So much for democracy isn’t it?

      No, something is not better than nothing. It must be qualified to a purpose AND demonstrated effective.

  • I have to say I believe your interpretation is flawed and misleading, I also find it hard to understand how Christians can think that world leaders have their best interests at heart, the bible says Satan is the god of this world, you don’t get to the top unless you work for his purpose, when he took jesus out into the wilderness to tempt him and offered him the kingdoms of the world jesus didn’t say but they arnt yours go give he knew Satan’s place in dominion over the earth, the vaccine will not be the mark but its a step towards it, also saying it may not be a physical thing then why is the bible so precise in telling you where it will be, the right hand or the forehead, what not just say the mark, too many people want to be part of this world and keep traveling and have a carer, that’s not why we are here we are meant to be hated by the world not part of it.
    Also this vaccine is a mRNA vaccine it is synthetic not natural and it reprograms your cell to fight the “virus” you are altering your body’s dna

    • Not taking the “mark,” is not what saves anyone. Theres little in these comments about feeding the poor and giving to those in need. Focus should be on the beatitudes and loving our neighbors and our enemies. Less Satan more Jesus

    • ANON I think let’s just quit predicting what the mark of the beast is/gonna be, until it gets here. For we shall know when it’s here, and shall have a choice whether to take it or not.

  • Just because I believe that prophecy was fulfilled in the 1st cent, doesn’t mean that I’m okay with vaccines and masks today. All governments are tools for Satan, but at the same time we Christians should be focused on proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God, not the bad news of Gods vanquished foe, the devil.

      • Arguably so.

        “ 19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples(A) of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)

  • This technology has progressed as billions of dollars in research has been conducted in experiments that have now spanned over sixty years.

    The use of nanotechnology is found in DARPA wanting to introduce nano transducers into the test subjects body by way of injection, much like nanotechnology found in Covid-19 vaccines will be injected into humans.

  • Worship and loyalty it is, for the germ theory of disease is fraudulent science, idolatry which contradicts the benevolence of God’s purpose of creation. The consequences of modern-day idolatry are comparable to Old Testament times: fall of the nation, and nationwide enslavement.

  • I’ve seen a lot of comments about the vaccine, masks and “buying and selling”. My question is, what about online shopping? Most major delivery services offer a “no contact” option which would mean that one could still “buy and sell” without ever having to leave their homes or have contact with anybody. If the vaccine is indeed “the mark of the beast” there seems to be an easy way for people to not take it and still buy and sell.

    • Until they require a proof to be “socially normative”.

      Were you planning to offer no objection or prayer to the ratcheting TOWARD evil?

  • in the Bible it says that if you don’t take the mark of the beast you will not be able to buy sell anything or get any food and so how do you explain that part

  • The Mark of the beast is Sabbath worship, Making Sunday a day of worship instead of the Saturday which the Jews still follow and so are the Gentiles.
    The Pope is the one who will implement this that you will not be able to buy or sell anywhere ever unless you worship on Sundays.
    If.you do your work and study will see the Pope has the Mark 666.
    I agree with some, that this will be the start as to see who will follow as apposed to true followers of Chris.
    This is only the beginning of the birth pangs peeps.
    It is going to get a lot worse.
    I pray you all have fully surrendered to the will of God.

    • The Pope is not forcing any of the 64,000+ new churches (each self proclaimed authorities autonomous from the sovereignty of the Lord) to hold their worship services on Sunday.

  • Is not original sin, and the mark of the beast one and the same….. well… connected.? That is, anything which interferes with the DNA. Cain was no child of Adam because he was the result of Eve partaking of “forbidden fruit”. Heaven only knows how many times scorn has been used (without understanding why), against mixed marriages. Keeping bloodlines pure is a nightmare. And now… now we have a rather odd vaccine which the whole world wants to take…. almost to the point of worship. And what is different with this vaccine… which is a piercing by the way…? It interferes with your own DNA. Please do your homework on this.The mark on the “forehead” is what is in the mind. The mark on the hand… probably the left hand…is what is in the heart. Already in some places children are not allowed to go to school if they have not been vaccinated. Will people be refused work…. which is the foundation of being able to buy and sell, and borrow money?? Earlier this year I lost my husband…. a couple of weeks ago I lost my mother. Both had Covid 19 on their death certificates, so I am hardly anti vaccine…. but I DO keep my eyes open. When I consider things I do so in coldness because emotion can sorely cloud judgement.

    • @Simone H I agree with most of what you’ve said. However, I beg to differ with the mark on the forehead being “what is in the mind” and the mark on the hand… on the left hand… being “what is in the heart”, for that is not supported by scripture. Notice how the following instances constitute the mark :

      [1]. Worship of the image of the beast
      [2]. Taking the Mark of the beast or
      [3]. The name of the beast or
      [4. The number of his name.

      These will be the choices you have in regards to pledging allegiance to the beast/system. Whichever you choose will afford you the same benefits as the others in regards to partaking in economic activities, aka buy and sell. Thus these CANNOT be symbolic i.e they cannot be representative of what’s on your mind (thoughts) or in your heart. They are most probably going to be physical marks that will have to be scanned at entry points: At stores; public transport; buildings; healthcare facilities et al. Hence the practice-run/social conditioning with the mask-wearing ritual and scanning of the forehead/hand with an infrared “temperature” gun at stores and various other places.

      Those three human body parts/areas are mostly uncovered or semi-covered most times, thus it makes it easier to get to with a handheld device/scanner. In regards to the hand, the bible says the mark will be taken on the “right” hand, not on the left. I’m not sure why, maybe because most people are right handed? But the mark is basically your ‘Pass’ to amenities or economic conveniences, and by extension a proof of ‘immunity’. Also Notice how the bible urges us to “count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man… (666)?” We can’t count what’s on our mind or heart. Thus it clearly be will be a physical mark.

      Revelation 13:15-18

      15 And he (false prophet/second beast) had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

      16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

      17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

      18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

      • The bible indicates in rev 20, which is further along gods timeline than rev 13, there will be those who do not have the mark of beast and have received god on their minds, as stated in Rev 22.

        Rev 21:8 gives example of those with the mark of the beast.

        Rev 13 forst beast is obviously the beast of nations risen from the waters of people.

        If one misreads revelations, the misread is not a blessing.

        Rev 13 second beast, risen from the land, not the waters of people, is a lamb who is a man that causes umdertakings of god. This resembles a messenger from god… like a prophet.

        No where does the bible indicate the second beast is a false prophet. How can a lamb of god be a false phrophet?

        With this, we must figure who the beast and false prophet are. Well, obvioisly, the 1st beast of rev 13 is a beast of sacrifice. The phrophets of Jesus are described in Rev 11 and they are likened to Sodom and Egypt. Wisely, we have determined the beast and false prophet.

        So what does Jesus prophets likened to Sodom and Egypt represent?
        1) men bethrothed to Jesus;
        2) rich men, thinking they have god figured.

        VERILY THE BIBLE IS TRUE TODAY. The church believes in Rapture which goes against rev 12:11. The “she”, Jesus bride, is NOT the church.. no man shall be betrothed to Jesus.

        So these modern church beliefs, valued at $80 billion, are false teachers/prophets.

        Once the lamb, messenger man pf God, is revealed, of course the church must admit the false teachings/prophecy and repent.

        Now, what is being said in the bible, wizens to the imteraction of god, a lamb messenger, and the world.

        This is like days of Elijah. It was elijah who was the messenger causing repentance thru Gods will.

        Further, men are cast down in Rev 11 and Satan is cast down in Rev 12. This indicates, as the parable of faith of a musterd seed, that Satan implanted false teachings/prophecy of rapture and men the bride of Jesus.

        How do we begin to realize now is the generation of the baby (a birthday) in Rev 12?

        Several earthquakes and tsunamis location speak with Divine Tongue..
        Concepcion and FukUSheMa.

        And Her Wrath of Fornication is Covid 19, during a Christmas Star on 2020 AD winter solstice.

        So be born anew or continue to believe in a phrophecy, rapture, that has never ever happened. Millions of people thirsted, hungered, worshipped for a god of rapture.

        These statements cause an apocalypse in the church, deserving of Gods Wrath in Rev 14, something fornicating, infecting inside are body, covid 19.

        Live by the Faith in Jesus in the kingdom of the Father, a “HE”, Eloah, and El Shaddai is the “Her” we search for in Proverbs.

        The lamb of God (like jesus, a lamb) who is a man on earth, obviously wizen is not to be worshipped, tho as a king may do, causes men to rethink based on the Word of God.
        So this is all Gods use of a man and intiating a rekindling unto God in verifiable Truth in Gods Word, given in Jesus Testimony of Revelations.

        There is a more to this.
        Close a door and much os taken away. Go forth onto a door opened theu Jesus and…

        Oh, so again, ome must admit a belief in false teachingd and be killed by god to oneself…
        Obviously God is not going to copeally kill a person immediately, ref abrahams son, tho accept Grace in repentance (a sacrifice of oneself) and continue to be obedient to god.

        Obedient to god does not say continue to live with false beliefs.

        Amen

  • I feel the mask is a false Idol we trust more than God. He gave us plenty of natural remedies that are hushed up and shunned by big pharma.. we don’t need vaccines, we need holistic lifestyles. Anyone really trust the people who feed us chemicals in our water and gmo food with medicines? And the vaccine is a step closer to the mark. I don’t believe we will knowingly take the mark.. he however is the greatest deceptor, and if you’re decepted into taking this vaccine for the “greater good” you’ll be willing to take the mark. Those who have more trust in science, chemicals and aborted fetal tissue in vaccines and pills that are all petroleum based (ALL FALSE IDOLS) need God and Jesus more than anyone.

    • @Michelle Very well said! However, I think you meant ‘deceiver’ instead of deceptor, and ‘deceived’ instead of decepted?

  • Are you sure the Covid has something to do with the Mark of the Beast? No it does not.

    It is this.

    “Those who reject God’s memorial of creatorship—the Bible Sabbath—choosing to worship and honor Sunday in the full knowledge that it is not God’s appointed day of worship, will receive the ‘mark of the beast. ‘” “The Sunday Sabbath is purely a child of the Papacy. It is the mark of the beast.”

      • @Truth Please stop! Sunday is NOT the mark of the beast! It NEVER was! And NEVER will be! For if the mark of the beast is a day of worship, where does that leave those who do not worship at all, let alone on which day? Secondly how does Sunday/Saturday tie up with the in/ability to buy or sell (Revelation 13:16-17)? Third, bible prophecy talks about events that are yet to come, but have you noticed how Sunday has been with us since inception? And how the bible warns that once you take the mark, there’s no turning back (Revelation 14:9-10)? But notice how one can change their mind and shift from worshipping on Sunday to worshipping on Saturday? So are you saying all those who have been worshipping on Sunday are already condemned without any chance of redemption? Does that even make sense to you? And, as you might have noticed, people are already being scanned on their forehead or hand when entering stores, so are you telling me that in the future they’ll be scanning for Sunday on your forehead?

        Besides, have you noticed the four instances related to the mark of the beast that bible warns us about?

        1]. Taking the mark of the beast
        2]. His name
        3]. Or the number of his name (666)
        4]. Worship of the beast and/his image

        …and how Revelation 13:18 says let him who has understanding count (calculate) the “number” of the beast, for it is the “number” of a man, and his number is Six hundred threescore and six (666). Now can you explain how Sunday is a “number of a man ”? And how can one “calculate Sunday? And how is Sunday “666”? I shall wait.

        This false SDA teaching got to stop because it is baseless and misleading.

  • I have a co-worker who feels that the vaccine is a way for the government to somehow microchip people and that is why they do not want the vaccine. That is what they are saying as the “mark of the beast”. That somehow this is the governments way to then track people.

  • The whole covid pandemic was most likely started on purpose by our deceitful government filled with powerful greedy demons. I mean I have done a massive amount of research stating names, dates, times, and the tests and research linked with those 3 things. They have been playing with this since as far back as 1999 with buried almost completely hidden documents they should have destroyed (possibly did but someone made copies) and other documents and patents stating the how’s and why’s for even messing with covid they say they had good intentions, maybe so? But no good deed goes I turned right? And they claim they sent it across the world to China knowing for a fact they couldn’t contain it but not expecting it to come back across the world at all ever? And if they really didn’t want it back set up a special screening for everyone and thing coming from other countries especially China? And with that lie of theirs being said, there was a sars outbreak from 2002 to 2004 what stopped the pandemic from spreading then? And this was supposedly the first sitings of SARS (cov(cov-1)? Did we not learn anything from the WHO or the WPRO? They wanted this to happen, but they didn’t know the extent of this virus and what it was really capable of much less being the smarty-pants know it all’s thought they could really keep a leash on this and control the spreading and contain it. This is how stupid our government is! And yes it was done purposely to help eradicate the homeless and fine tune their A.I. to thin out the criminal population. To top it off are probably the cause of the 2002 outbreak since there is documentation proving they have been messing with Corona virus and more than one strand to use the components from the many strands to prevent or treat severe bronchitis? Wow they did a fine job doing that 👍! And have been talking for years about applying some form of tracking or tracing of the human race. Take the covid app for example. Everyone’s phones were down for short periods of time so they could apply this so called update to everyone’s phone without their consent due to the fact that our carriers allowed it as a slight infraction of our binding contracts from our service provider. So that we could be aware if someone near us had covid. Bull crap it was a way to track most of the world without them knowing because it was never brought publicly by the government and that they never for warned us of the downtime much less that that was what it was for? And how was it supposed to warm us? It wasn’t it was a tracking device since we have repeatedly voted down putting chips in us. But once again they are moving highly against us by the so called super cure (fake) to inject us with animal RNA and DNA with many nanomites encoded with what? So they can latch on to our neurons to rewrite our brain like sleeper cells giving everyone of us our own person I.P. address like an IMEI number on a phone. To be able to ping us anywhere in the world and find us and possibly watch us no matter where we are or what we are doing. To finally invade and take over our personal privacy. And our constitutional right of the 4th amendment of the US Constitution states the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause. And if we get the so called cure and don’t follow their wishes and commands they will just tell the nanomites injected into you to make you. Forcing you unknowingly against your will making you their controllable slave for the rest of your pathetic lives. So God if you’re out there have mercy on so many of our souls. Who shall rise and save us from this apocalypse and damnation from our corrupt (so you thought you were deciding with your vote offices of power) government. They will put who they want where they want regardless of your meaningless vote. How do you really know for a fact who the rest of the world voted for? You don’t and you never will. Just a ploy to make the real sheep think they actually have a say. I am a true Shepard, and I will try and save as many of you sheep as I can. But some sheep will always be sheep and can never be anything but. The torn sheep riding the fence, I hope I can away and rope as many of you down to the right side as I can. So I say again GOD please help me guide these mislead poor souls out of the arms of the corrupt and truly defend man kind and our right to a true free will of our own choosing that can’t be changed by someone else’s hands because they don’t like their choosing. And let us not be altered by Machine to try and change and recreate what you have made us to be from your own hands and in your own eyes. In Jesus name I pray Amen…

    • god bless you so much, yes wall street journal, article recent, on 153new.net, they will indeed be tracking people for 2 years, google will track, and so will oracle, everyone who gets the operation warp speed covid vaccines., along with hhs, or homeland nazi security., this is mainstreem news, , , tracking us with microchips and altering gods dna., facts., , also cases of bells palsy, already, and hiv, aids, , australia stopped the trials, for false positives of hiv., does that sound good?, , we are the temple jesus talked about, may god help us all, , article is wishy washy and some of the comments as well., facts are clear to those who want to know.thank you my friend.

  • I have definitively not read all these comments, but here is my take on this. I agree with Tavis. I am not a Bible scholar by any means. As a matter, my current feeling and thoughts here in December I knew not how to back with scripture, but Tavis did it for me. I feel that taking the vaccine in no way will cause me damnation. I am most certainly not taking the mark. There are many baby Christians such as my grown daughter that would take it with zero knowledge of all this hype. Would Christ condemn my daughter to hell? Of course not. The mark is outward rebellion against God. I would never turn my back on my Savior and take the mark with rebellious hate in my heart. The mark is going to be a very visible mark of loyalty to the beast.

  • Whatever happened to a “personal relationship with God”? Rather than this authoritarian deference to “reputable biblical scholars or theologians”? This article is highly offensive and dangerous.

  • To add a couple of thoughts to the conversation:

    1. Is the Covid vaccine the mark of the beast?

    As far as I know, vaccines are not administered in the hand/ wrist or forehead. So I’m not inclined to think that the vaccine is the actual mark spoken of. Not yet… BUT, I think everyone agrees that at the minimum this is a precursor of what is to come. A conditioning.

    2. Why on the forehead and also specifically the right hand?

    Here in Brazil we have a choice of taking a reading of one’s temperature (when entering establishments) either on the forehead or on the wrist. Makes the most practical sense. What doesn’t make sense is that (a) people who have fevers generally don’t feel like being out and about… and (b) most people I know who’ve had Covid (including myself) never had a fever. So there are a fair amount of people who have Covid who are going into malls, etc. with normal temperatures. Never ever seen anyone turned away because they had a fever. But it’s not logic that dictates that temperatures should be taken… I believe it’s a conditioning. Just like everything else.

    When the mark of the beast is implemented, one can have the choice of having the implant (or whatever) on the forehead or the right hand because: (a) not everyone has a right hand, but everyone has a forehead (never seen a human being without a forehead)… and (b) the right hand is the most practical, because most people are right-handed. The person who scans reaches out their right hand to scan the person who will extend their right hand. Kind of like how we shake hands. Practical. So I don’t think there’s a special reason as to why either the forehead or right hand… purely practical and obvious – now that we actually see it in action. There was a (supposed) study years ago talking about a chip being powered by the body’s energy and that the forehead and right hand were the most optimal.

    Some additional thoughts:

    I don’t think the vaccine is the mark just yet because most people alive have had vaccines. The Covid vaccine is definitely part of the ritual (and who knows what’s in it)… but no one has ever lost their salvation or worshipped the system we’ve always lived in merely by receiving a vaccine. We’re all subject to certain must-haves in order to do stuff in this world:

    One needs a passport to travel. One needs an identification in order to open bank accounts, etc. One needs a credit card in order to buy almost everything online. There are many things all of us could name.

    I think that the mark of the beast will be clear to everyone. One won’t be able to buy and sell without it (not unlike much of what we’ve already got in place), it will be applied either on the right hand or the forehead… and I believe that somehow, at the time of receiving the mark, one will have to reject Christ consciously/ publicly, declaring allegiance to the Anti-Christ system. The two will go hand in hand.

    In my mind, the actual mark of the beast might come in 5-10 years. Who knows? But one thing is for sure, it’s all in play… and we’re heading there quickly.

    Build up your faith and draw closer to God though His Word. Share the Gospel with those around you. Watch and wait.

    God bless!

  • This article is misguided and wrong on numerous levels. Hogwash. Man will be merging with the beast dna. Cash will soon be changed out with cryptocurrency…and it will be synched up with this biometric jab. This absolutely IS the Mark of the Beast. If you take it, you will be forever doomed. No taking it back, no “Oops!”…you will no longer be in YWHW’s creation. If you take it, it will be your biggest regret that you’ve ever made. Let that sink in.

    You need to sober up asap!

    • @Dee Ehn, I don’t believe the vaccine is the mark of the beast for a simple reason/s; the (first) beast himself (Antichrist) hasn’t been revealed yet (2 Thessalonians 2:3), and so is his false prophet (second beast). Thus the mark cannot precede its custodian. Notice how the bible says it’s a “mark” on specific areas of your body: the forehead; and the right hand. The vaccine is liquid, and shall be in your blood stream circulating your whole body once injected. Besides, the bible warns us about at least four instances pertaining to the mark of the beast: [1]. Taking the mark; [2]. The name of the beast; [3]. The number of his name; [4]. The worship of the beast image. Thus it cannot be just one thing. And it is clear that we shall know when the mark of the beast is ‘introduced’, and we shall make a conscious decision as to whether to take it or not, or give consent to any of the above-mentioned instances. Thus we shall NOT be tricked into taking it. We shall do so knowingly (See Revelation 13:8). I however do believe that the mask-wearing ritual and the coming vaccine are precursors thereto.

    • Yeah, I think you’re attitude is right on. Though, we do need to be aware of all the qualifiers of this prophesy. The mark will be on either the right hand or the forehead, and one won’t be able to buy or sell without it. If we see these items, then we will know that it’s the mark of the beast. Anything less than these qualifiers means that it’s not the mark. It’s time to keep out eyes open because it sure appears that the time is at hand.

  • #1 – INCORRECT: The Mark of the Beast IS medically related in some way. It must be because of Revelation 16:2 :

    “…harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast…”

    So, we can know that the mark does cause a physical ailment. Could this be caused by an RFID’s power source – the battery? (apparently, only powered RFID chips can be tracked – passive RFID’s can not).

    #2 – TRAVIS NOT A CHRISTIAN. I don’t believe the author of this article is a Christian. Maybe a Catholic, but not a born again Christian.
    (a) His interpretation of Revelation deviates so far from what the scriptures teach.
    (b) NOT ONCE does the author correlate his interpretation to the Book of Daniel which is CRUCIAL to understanding Revelation.
    (c) He insults millions of Christians, myself included, whose hermeneutics point to a biblical eschatology contrary to his own. (i) we don’t read or know our bibles (ii) our views are antiquated (“Neronic phantom”), (iii) our views are “sillier.” Romans 14:1 “Don’t criticize them for having beliefs that are different from yours…”

    #3 – “mark of the beast has received way more attention” NOT TRUE, TRAVIS!! WAY WRONG! All one needs to do is a Youtube Search for the top Christian Channels and watch those channels most popular videos; you won’t see them “obsession” over the mark. They preach the Gospel. Start with Perry Stone for example.

    #4 – “Mark of the Beast obsession more about politics” NOT TRUE! Only for you I suspect. I can read between your lines and hear your political persuasion permeating through the text.

    Those who study the bible, MUST study prophecy – 25% of the bible IS prophecy. There are over 300 old testament prophecies about the 1st coming of Jesus. But, there are 8x times as many prophecies in the old and new combined about His 2nd coming. So, even though you put the word “pastor” in front of your name, you sure don’t act like it Travis.

    • Mike. You haven’t got the remotest, not even the foggiest idea of what you are talking about. Take a look at R C Sproul. He does

  • I laughed my ass off when I read some of the comments at the top. This guy gives a clear understanding of Rev. and how Jesus is the hero and then right away people are like, “masks are the mark of the beast” and “we’re going to wear masks for 3 1/2 years and then Jesus is coming.” LMAO.

  • The pastor is right the vaccine is not the mark of the beast. We are already in the – mark of the beast system – and many of us are buying and selling in this system since before 1930. Even Benny Hinn whether you like him or not, he has just got this revelation that we are and have been in the beast system for some time and has put it out on youtube. But the system keeps taking his post – youtube down. His youtube is called – something big is about to happen.

    • @Deborah We cannot be in the “mark of the beast system.” That doesn’t make sense. We are however, in the (rising) beast system, which will introduce it’s mark (mark of the beast) pretty soon. Hence the mask-wearing ritual. The beast will have to be revealed first, before the mark is introduced however. Notice how you’re now required to wear a mask in order to be allowed entry into stores? Which wasn’t the case back in the 1930’s? And soon enough you would be required to produce a certificate of vaccination at store entrances; public transport etc. which again never was a requirement in 1930. Thus to say that you’ve been able to buy & sell in a “beast system” as far back as 1930 is to err. For only now is the beast system rising, which will have a distinct mark that will act as a permit that will allow you to partake in economic activities aka buy & sell, without which you won’t be able to buy or sell (Revelation 13:16-17).

  • I can’t believe how many comments are on here, this is a hot topic. I get angry when I see all these theologians and pastors telling us not to worry this isn’t the mark of the beast…keep ignoring the facts. Christianity is controlled by Masons and secret societies, I wrote extensively on this in my blog “deception free”. Every “Christian” site tries to debunk these as conspiracy theories and tells us not to worry. This is because they are trying to get us off our guard to be put in a bad position when it is actually the mark of the beast. I agree that Jesus should be the focus and not Satan but when we are only a few years away from the mark of the beast, these articles should be written proving the facts that this is part of the activity of satan and the Godly delusion leading to the mark. The truth is the New World Order conspiracy is run by satan and this lockdown has EVERYTHING to do with it. I have been following this for 20 years and I knew when it started exactly what was going on. Economic collapse and a third world war are next, and after that you will be fighting for survival and if your not ready your only choice will be to take the mark, flee or get your head chopped off. These Vaccines are not for Covid, they are going to re encode your DNA to work with the beast system. This even is admitted by Bill Gates that it uses nano tech to re encode your DNA. Trans humanism is at the root of this and is all about the “Nephlim”. Thats why people who take the mark will be nonredeemable, cause they won’t even be genetically human.

    The truth is we are not sure exactly how to interpret these scriptures. The “Beast” is the system, the Ai, the internet the control and economy…everything. The NWO owns and runs the world. Beasts are definitely Nations that rule.. from Daniel’s prophecies. Wounded beast is the revived roman empire through the pope. I’ve been looking at getting out and separating myself from this society for 10 years cause I saw where this was going, I don’t even go to churches anymore cause they are so off the mark (or headed straight for it) . What part of this system do you love so much that you want to stay apart of it? The fact that all your clothes is made by slaves in China? The fact that all the food is full of poison? The fact that this life style you enjoy comes at the expense of the environment and oppression. The media is all lies and I am willing to bet that the worship of the beast and taking the mark might not be so obvious…because it is so obvious to me not to take the Vaccine that is brought forth by the NWO and is going to alter my DNA. If not this one, the future vaccines or perhaps a special injection with a mark that inducts you officially into the NWO giving you “eternal life” or life extension will be the mark. Thats why the Bible says that they will cry for the rocks to fall on them but they won’t be able to die. Oh and the RFID chips when exposed to electro magnetic shock….like from an EMP or Solar Flare makes a malignant soar on the skin…..

    So I don’t know people, maybe you should be preparing like myself to sell your homes and buy land together and start growing food, cause trust me very soon you will not be able to buy or sell and if you don’t do what they say they will take you away and chop off your head. The Canadian Gov is already telling people that if they don’t follow their orders they will be taken to the isolation camps they have set up and held indefinably. This was on their own website.

    Wake up people the church is asleep.

  • Charagma is the word used in Revelation. It is like a brand. Burned into the flesh. It was practiced in the time that Revelation was written and the readers of the time would have understood it as a religious rite showing allegiance to a god/cult.

    It will not be taken by accident. On this point you are correct.

    It is physical and it will be visible.

    You must show it to buy or sell.

    It is connected to religious worship and wholehearted adoration and kissing the hand of the beast.

    Taking the vaccine and everything else we are being forced into with this hoax is most certainly training you to take the mark.

    The mark is exactly what the Bible says it is and it is very simple. It gets complicated when people lie about it.

    • Yes! It will be visible. Agreed! As from the beginning, the devil is cunning and deceitful. He’s been slowly working on this from day one. The more unbelievers out there, the easier it gets for him. God is not the author of confusion, but Satan is. Mass confusion out there, sadly mostly among Christians themselves.

  • If I want people to die so that I can be new Adam does
    That make me the dragon or the lion if I am using reverse psychology? I happen to have both the sign of the lion in Greek mythology and the dragon in Chinese.

    • Reverse psychology?
      Actually a key opening mysteries to Disciples of Jesus is the lamb w 2 horns, is glorified in causing Obedience to Gods Word is satisfied.
      An item of no discrepancy is God kills people..
      Its a gift of sprouting more fruitfully, husbandry, where we say sacrifice ourselves in Faith in Jesus Testimony.

      Its not magical, nor false, nor medically symbolic when the prescription is taken as prescribed.

      The Husbandry thru the Holy Spirit actually rightens your growth more fruitlfully.

      Chrystology, the crystallization of the mind.

      Ya, a fig tree not fruiting, like due to mans figurines, Jesus curses. Think of it as Jesus curses false beliefs and Jesus already told man how to be a living adoption to Gods tribes.

      Reverse majical powers..
      Sounds like hobbit majic.

  • p.s. covid is tyranny why do you need a vaccine for a flu you get over it if you get it in about 10 days and it is man made thank you china its a distraction for the great reset a vaccine for ???lie’s if you take this you are damned in God’s eye’s the time for fence sitting is over

  • See the problem is biblical scholars and theologians weren’t given this so they can’t see it . He says we can’t be tricked into taking the mark as if the beast and dragon are somehow going to be honest with us. The vaccine contains bioluminescence termed “luciferase ” it’s the name of a chemical that glows. To be simple once you let into your temple the name of Lucifer into your bloodstream you have accepted “the name of the beast”. Which is exactly what revelation chapter 13 says. Sounds sneaky right? Snakes are subtle.

    • I think that this vaccine is setting you up for the mark. They say it is a platform to work with their vaccine technology. So I think the actual MOTB will be a future injection that works with this vaccine in order to alter you DNA fully. The Luciferase will be the actual mark that proves you have the “vaccine”. This future injection will probably happen in a few years after economic collapse, Third World War and more viruses.

  • Hi there,

    I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on the matter. Indeed the mark of the beast will be accepted through an incision, also known as a needle. I truly encourage you to look into Carl Sanders who was an engineer of the RFID Chip which has been identified as the mark of the beast that is to come. Please look into his testimony which can be found on Youtube. I’ll link something here just for reference but feel free to do your own research https://youtu.be/NdMj8KD_Lmw

  • Yes, Truth. The Microsoft patent link is right.
    https://patentscope.wipo.int/search/en/detail.jsf?docId=WO2020060606&tab=PCTBIBLIO
    How it works is as follows (I think):
    MK Ultra controlled slave (now reaching about 2 million people) receives a command on their smartphone by one of the servers who have all the chipped Illuminati slaves on (watch John Wick, Bourne Ultimatum, Manchurian Candidate). They get chipped when they are ‘programmed” (tortured for days) by one of the Beasts (Master Programmers)
    The slave then does the task and is rewarded by cryptocurrency on their bank account.
    That is the way they will rule the masses: By Artifical Intelligence. It is happening on a mass scale now. Politicians have sold us all out.

  • THIS IS SO WRONG , YOU ARE A LIAR AND A DECIEVER . THIS IS ENDTIMES FOLKS, GER SAVED NOW RAPTURE FIG TREE GENERATION ENDS MAY 14
    GOSPEL 1 Corinthians 15 1-4
    Ephesians 2;8-9

    • The article is appalling as it is so half baked and lacking. No mention of the main attribute that you cannot buy or sell without the mark.

      Is the author an idiot?

  • Jump forward to 2021 and 2 weeks back, I was watching our government (and several others on the day) – all in ‘full mask ceremony’. It was no different than watching a mass in a catholic church. At the right time, everyone crosses themslves, next step, bow, receive the sacrament etc. =You will never convince me that the cult of the mask is NOT a new religion. Just look at the demonizing of people who go to the shopping mall without one – they get attacked by vigilantes – enforcing ‘the law’. The same is happening with the vaccine – no job – no job, no travel. It will only get worse! And, to highlight the total stupidity, just look at the idea now doing the rounds – that 2 masks are better than one. Why not 3? why not four? I think the orld has gone completely mad and, amazingly, that is also inJohn the revelator’s notes – something about men running to and fro, weeping and gnashing of teeth. Go feral – at your peril!

  • Technology is the beast, Scientism is the antichrist, those wearing the mask and who will take the DNA altering vaccine, are those who are loyal to the beast and antichrist.

  • Have you investigated why so many think it’s the mark of the Beast? I’ll give you one quick reason: It’s never been 666 it’s 616. The Dead Sea scrolls prove this in Johns letter regarding the beasts number XIC. If you have studied XIC in the genome then you know that number can be altered by RNA. I think the question we have to ask ourselves is, “do we trust our Father and respect HIS creation”. This CRISPr technology is not new. Many on YouTube have purchased kits to alter and change their DNA at home. We are to graft ourselves into the tree of life in every way. It’s not just something mental(forehead)but our actions as well(hand). It’s either “yes” or “no”. Anything else is from the devil and the government, UN, Catholic Church and many Free Mason started religions are of the devil as well. I trust no man on earth, and we are told not to. Altering my genetic code, by adding RNA might not be in the vaccine BUT this agenda was pushed by Bill Gates to open Pandora’s box. Next people will say, “of the vaccine didn’t hurt so let me change my embryo so my child can have blue or green eyes”. Creation is his alone, and when we rest in him, as Adam and Eve entered that rest in the garden, we are called to be obedient in thoughts and actions. This Vaccine as well as many others, are not something I am willing to teach my children our Father and his Son back. There was a reason men didn’t cut their hair and it wasn’t the reason religion teaches. Everything we are is made in our Fathers image. We should not be lining up to help push the altering of the genome agenda, just like we shouldn’t back Genetically Modified Foods. All fruit is to keep beating seed. It’s got a double edged sword meaning. Praise Yehoshwa!

    • I have to agree that in my research the true number is 616, but they still use 666, so I think it is both, but more accurately 616. And these new vaccines the companies admit it changes your RNA, so they are already putting it in the vaccines, heck they are NOT VACCINES, they are injections to change your humanity!

      • @Al Your “research” is based on man-made and written archives. The bible is not. Revelation 13:18 clearly states that the number of the beast is “Six hundred threescore and six”… which means ‘Six hundred and sixty six’ (666). So we need to establish who’s lying here: you? or the bible?

        “All scripture is given by inspiration of God,…” – 2 Timothy 3:16 and “God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar;…” – Romans 3:4

        NOTE: This is not a random discussion/debate, for we shall be proven right or wrong one day. Hopefully it won’t be too late.

        “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

        “And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” – Rev. 22:18–19

        • Actually no I’m sorry, but my research is from original manuscripts, if you do some deeper research you will find that 616 is listed instead of 666 in some of the earliest manuscripts. A simple google search will reveal that 616 has been used in place of 666.
          But how are we to know the truth for sure? What does it matter any ways 666 or 616 I’m still not getting the MOTB or the vaccine.

          People need to realize the history of translations and understand what they are reading is not the original Hebrew so why people want to tell other people they are wrong when it’s impossible to know for sure.

          You read your bible and it says God. Do you know that the term God was derived in the 6th century from a Germanic tribe who worship a false diety Godan. My point is that there are many things misrepresented in modern translations.

          So please do some basic fact checking before replying so u don’t waste people’s time.

          • @Al If that’s the case, you should be advocating for the abolishment of the current bible versions then? Have you done that? If not, why not? For as I understand it, that is the source of the problem right? Thus wanting to correct people for quoting the current version/s of the bible when you don’t provide the correct version thereof in accordance with the earliest manuscripts, is what I find a complete waste of other people’s time.

            Until I have a copy of that revised bible in my mailbox. I shall hold steadfast to the teachings of the current version of scripture. For it is the infallible Word of God that I know. Anything else, is a pie in the sky! And yes, I shall let God be true, and every man a liar as per Romans 3:4 So long.

          • Is easy to tell that you have a spirit of religion. You are so naive that you can’t even do 10 mins of your own research. Actually I wrote many articles 10 years ago about bible versions and most of the modern ones are not accurate In any way. They were taken from the corrupt Alexandrian manuscripts. Bro I didn’t comment on your opinion you commented on me agreeing with with another commenter. Religious people love to argue and do NO research. They just regurgitate what they hear on Sunday. This is why I left t he traditional church to follow YHWH. Such a waste of my time to even respond to you.

        • Luvuyo. Al is correct, some manuscripts and Bibles have 616. Nero’s name using Gematria in Hebrew is 666, Nero’s name in Greek using Gematria adds up to 616.

          • @AlongcameJones Revelation 13:18 says the number of the beast is “Six hundred threescore and six” meaning, it’s Six hundred and sixty six: 666 in numerical form. Which scripture are you referencing in your 616 claim?

            “God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar;…” – Romans 3:4

      • Al, some Bible translations say 616 or 666. 666 is the Gematria for Nero Caesar in Hebrew. 616 is the Gematria for Nero’s name in Greek. So Scholars believe some Translators decided to Gematria Nero name in Greek as the Great majority of readers were Greek. That way Greeks would have a better chance of working out who the Antichrist was

    • The 666 and the 616 in Bible Prophecy is Referring to Nero Caesar. It has got absolutely nothing to do with C-19 Vaccines, swabs, masks, TMOTB etc and has got nothing to do with the 21st Century whatsoever. all of this is just ignorant Mass Hysteria which proves just how gullible people are,esp Christians. No wonder scamming is a multi Billion dollar business, some people will believe any wild and far fetched conspiracy theory you throw their way, the more bazaar it is the more they believe it. Nero Caesar name in Hebrew adds up to 666, His name in Greek adds up to 616. some translators used 616 so Greek speaking people using Gematra could figure out who the author is referring to. See on U tube DR Ken Gentry ” The Beast of Revelation IDENTIFIED ” and/or R C Sproul series ” The Last Days according to Jesus ” Come on fellow believers, let’s not live in deluded ignorance all our lives. Lets put a bit of sanity and reality back into Bible Prophecy

  • you need to know that the mark of the beast is real you wiil not be able buy or sell and if you think that you can get it and say i am going to heaven that you are decived you guys when he sends fire from heaven its the devil and here is proof Elijah
    In 1 Kings 18, Elijah defended the worship of the Hebrew God over that of the Canaanite deity Baal. God also performed many miracles through Elijah, including resurrection, bringing fire down from the sky, and entering Heaven alive “by fire”. and Revelation 13:17, NIV: “so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.” … Revelation 13:17, NLT: “And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name.”

  • I haven’t properly read this article or the other article about the vaccine for the fake virus and the 666 relation, but have seen enough to know that the author writes lies. I’ve mainly been reading comments that have been posted on both articles for some time now, possibly at least for a few months. There are some things that I do want to comment on though about some things that I believe and what I have read on either this article or the other article and also elsewhere.

    The trinity is false. Jesus is not God and the Holy Spirit is not God. Jesus is the begotten Son of God; the firstborn of creation and the Holy Spirit is the spirit from God that believers receive.

    Believers that are dead and those that have been martyred before or during the great tribulation, and those that still alive after the great tribulation, will be caught up to meet the Lord Jesus in the clouds, with the dead being raised first (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18). There is no secret rapture or pre-tribulation rapture.

    The number of the beast is 666, not 616. One proof of this I believe is that it is 666 is the fact that people use 666 hand signs, include 666 in their usernames online etc. If it was 616 then I believe they would be prominently displaying 616 instead with their hands and in any satanic entertainment in which they do this.

    At least most of the end times events have not taken place yet, including the events in Matthew 24 (not including anyone that has falsely claimed that they are Christ up to this present time), Chapters in the Book of Daniel, including some of chapter 7, 8, 9; chapters 11 and 12 and Revelation, not including the Revelation 1-3, and also the first seal in my opinion.

    Tribulation exists now, but the great tribulation, where war is made against the saints, only lasts for 42 months (Revelation 11:1-2, Revelation 13:5).

    There needs to be a temple in Jerusalem, otherwise it would not be possible to take away the daily sacrifice and to place the abomination of desolation, which is the image of the beast which the false prophet gives life to, in the Temple (Daniel 12:11).

    The masks for this lie, mask wearing, social distancing, the vaccine and the fake virus are all satanic, but at present they cannot be the mark of the beast, because the beast/antichrist has not been revealed yet. Even still, no one should be wearing these masks, taking vaccines etc. I also believe that the masks for this fake virus, vaccines etc. are not the mark of the beast, even though they are demonic. People write or say that the mark of the beast could be an RFID chip or the vaccine, but the Greek word for mark is ‘charagma’, which from Strong’s Greek concordance means ‘sculpture, a stamp, sign’ (short definition). The mark of the beast is also physical and will be seen

    Why can’t the mark of the beast just be a simple mark/branding/stamp on someone’s skin? There is no need for it to be technologically advanced? It could be, but it is not a must that it has to be, especially since the word for mark in Greek is ‘charagma’. Even still, worship of the dragon, Satan, and the beast is written about in Revelation 13 before the mark of the beast is written about. Everyone whose name is not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world will worship the beast (Revelation 13:8), yet I believe so much more emphasis seems to be placed upon the mark of the beast instead of the spiritual condition of the person/people who will worship Satan and the beast.

    Also, for noisome the boils that the people who received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image as written in Revelation 16:2, this directly a judgement from God, for the two aforementioned reasons, not due to the effects of a vaccine for this fake virus someone has taken.

    No one has gotten ill or died from this virus, and I think at least almost everyone knows this, it is just that most choose to lie about it I believe, while others will say it’s a lie and perhaps there are a few that have genuinely deceived by the liars that there is a virus, maybe. I used to believe swine flu and Ebola existed so that’s why I’ve listed the final part down as a possibility.

    The word pharmacy comes from the Greek word pharmakeus, which comes from pharmakon (https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=pharmacy) meaning “magician. sorcerer” in Strong’s concordance.

    Revelation 9:20-21 (KJB)

    [20] And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
    [21] Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries (Strong’s Greek 5333 – pharmakōn), nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

    I also believe that this fake virus was the opening of the first seal. This is my speculation. Perhaps I may be wrong, but I feel it matches too closely to Revelation 6:2.

    Revelation 6:1-2 (KJB)

    [1] And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
    [2] And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

    Corona is latin for ‘crown’. Coronavirus – ‘crown’virus.

    A bow but with no arrows. Conquering with a bow without arrows, which I believe means there is no actual warfare. This fake virus is a “global pandemic”, and has effectively “conquered” the world: mask wearing, social distancing etc.

    Strong’s Concordance – toxon: a bow

    Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance – “from the base of tikto; a bow (apparently as the simplest fabric) — bow.”

    Toxic comes from the word toxon (https://www.etymonline.com/word/toxic)

    This fake virus could possibly be regarded as “toxic”, or at least the “effects” of it, if diseases can be regarded as being toxic.

    Fabric – mask wearing – these masks can be essentially seen simple fabrics.

    Mandated mask wearing – covering the face with a “fabric”. A large amount of emphasis has been placed on wearing these masks for this fake virus e.g., people posting pictures with the emphasis being placed on the masks they are wearing. Masks have been required for travel, entrance to stores etc.

    With how immoral this world is right now, with homosexuality, feminism, lovers of self on social media, this fake virus and the mask mandates etc. I really do think that the first seal is this fake virus, quite possibly meaning there really isn’t much time left before the beast/antichrist is revealed, which is when the transgressors are come to the full (Daniel 8:23) leading to the end time events. Also, the antichrist will not regard any god except for satan, and he will not regard the desire of women (Daniel 11:37-29).

    Mastercard is a technology company in the global payments industry committed to leading the way toward a World Beyond Cash™.

    Revelation 13:17 “so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark”

    Will the COVID vaccine be the mark of the beast?

  • It seems to be popular these days to believe that the Mark is not physical, but Revelation clearly says,”none may buy or sell without the mark.” So, in a decent-sized city how would a grocery store clerk, for example, know whether your mental state aligned you with the Beast, or not? No, there must be a simple way for followers of the Beast to recognize other followers. The Mark will be physical, and interestingly tattoos have been proposed to identify those who have taken the Covid vaccine.

  • […] COVID-19 and The Mark of the Beast – theLAB You are on it. at least I ain’t the only one who can see this people are in denial it is sad ..before all covid 19and lockdowns started I really didn’t take religion to seriously more rather than a guide to be moral people too know and practice to be good hearted people.now I seen what has unraveled so plainly and obvious that I seen it so … […]

  • The mark of the beast exists in all people when the fallen angel knew Eve and why God said He was now going to separate the angels seed going forward. This is why a persons left side differentiates from their right side, from eyebrows, ears and down to the other more private areas. It was at that point that God said listen to me and not deception and in the New Heaven, I will not only give you forever health, but a perfect body to match. Satan could not destroy the pure seed of God in the womb but did later in the field, so he thought. This is why when a person is asked, what is your dominate side, right or left? No matter the side answered, that is the proof that God was then and can be now…dominate in our lives. Another proof is just reading here and everywhere the misconceptions and opinions by everyone of something so simply revealed before our eyes already, and some people actually believe they are right and get stupid in defending their own opinion. God has never said we must degree up to gain His knowledge of truth, just obedience and in the asking without PRIDE and in sincerity. Give it a try sometime and do not, never listen to one who is of a religion because plain and simple, religion in the King James is not of God, just a group of people claiming their separation of another group because of a large or small disagreement of sorts. Ignorance is not a bad word, just most people are when it comes to what is already written…few will enter through the narrow gate because they lean on their own understanding.

    • @Jeffrey Thomas Farinholt I respectfully disagree with your assertion that the mark of the beast already exists in any one person, let alone “all” people, because if that’s the case we “all” have already been condemned to the eternal Lake of fire and brimstone with no hope of redemption then, at least according to Revelation 14:9-11. Besides, in Revelation 13:16-18 the bible states that the mark of the beast will be a physical mark, and that it shall be taken on the right hand or forehead. And that no one shall be able to buy or sell except for those who have the mark. Our body symmetry have absolutely nothing to do with the mark of the beast! And CANNOT determine our ability to buy or sell as such. For the question would be, when did we get our asymmetrical nature, before or after we were created? I find it rather strange that you didn’t even give a single scripture reference to substantiate your claim?

      • Luvuyo Booi is right. It is very important to keep scripture front and center in what you believe. In Isiah 8:20 it states “To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them”. In today’s world of false gods, false christs, and false prophets, it is very important to keep The Word as your guidepost. The Lord sent his word for a reason. One reason, most certainly, it that we may know the truth.

  • The proof of vaccination may become the mark. Just read an article about a phone app to show at airports, theaters, restaurants… that prove you’ve received the vaccine. This gives you access. You will certainly not be able to buy without it.

    • Yeah Doug, the requirement of proof of vaccination sure does look like it might morph into The Mark. It’s definitely something to watch and see.

  • Listen y’all as of now go and see what they are doing in Israel with the green passport.
