These 10 (Rev.17:12-13)rulers will be giving their support to a coming union of church and state in Europe, which will aspire to world dominance. After an interlude of apparent peace and prosperity, the system will plunge the whole world into a nightmare(World War 3). That's why Jesus has to come back; he has to save the world from total destruction. Matthew 24:21,22,29,30.
To understand the Mark of the beast--you have to read all these scriptures.
First of all; we have to know the opposite of it.
The Seal of God is in the 4th Commandment in Exodus 20:8-11; references are John 4:22-24 and Rev.14:7.
Sabbath in Encyclopaedia Americana, Vol.24, pp.68-69.
The Sabbath Day is Saturday.
Look it up in dictionaries, encyclopedias and etc.
But anyway a SEAL contains 3 things.
1. HIS NAME,
2. HIS OFFICIAL POSITION, TITLE OR AUTHORITY
3. THE EXTENT OF HIS DOMINION AND JURISDICTION
Now the SEAL in the 4th Commandment is
1. THE LORD
2. MADE {office,creator}
3. HEAVEN AND EARTH {dominion}
If we know the SEAL is the 7th day sabbath Saturday (EXOD.20:8-11); then rejecting it would be the MARK.
REV.7:2-3 "AND I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL ASCENDING FROM THE EAST, HAVING THE SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD: AND HE CRIED WITH A LOUD VOICE TO THE FOUR ANGELS, TO WHOM IT WAS GIVEN TO HURT THE EARTH AND THE SEA,
SAYING,HURT NOT THE EARTH, NEITHER THE SEA, NOR THE TREES, TILL WE HAVE SEALED THE SERVANTS OF OUR GOD IN THEIR FOREHEADS." {knowing, doing and keeping the Sabbath holy}
SO IF YOU KEEP SATURDAY HOLY(JN.4:22-24) AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST FAITH; YOU WILL HAVE THE(REV.14:12) "SEAL OF GOD".
Evidence: (Catholics know when the seventh day is)
"1. Is Saturday the 7th day occording to the Bible & the 10 Commandments.
"I answer yes.
"2. Is Sunday the first day of the week & did the Church change the 7th day--Saturday---for Sunday, the 1st. day:
"I answer yes.
"3. Did Christ change the day
"I anser no! Faithfully yours,
"J. Card. Gibbons"
--Gibbon's Autograph letter.
"Ques.--Which is the Sabbath day?
"Ans.--Saturday is the Sabbath day.
"Ques.--Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday?
"Ans.--We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday."--Peter Geiermann, The Convert's Catechism of Catholic Doctrine (1946 ed.), p.50. Geiermann received the "apostolic blessing" of Pope Pius x on his labors, Jan.25,1910.
Bible Readings pg.194.
(Dan.7:25 tells us "he will think to change laws and times")
"Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change was her act...And the act is a Mark of her ecclesiastical authority in religious things." ---H.F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons.
Most people have followed the church; look what Rev.13:1 says "...and all the world wondered after the beast." What does this mean; will if you seen every domination---they follow the Catholic's teachings which are false(Dan.8:12). This is the image of the Beast. This is what God tells his people that are in 1st Babylon and 2nd Babylon in Rev.18:4 "...Come out of her my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye not receive her plagues."
"IF ANY MAN WORSHIP THE BEAST{Sunday} AND HIS IMAGE{teachings of Catholic Church} AND RECEIVE HIS MARK IN HIS FOREHEAD,{affections} OR IN HIS HAND" {REV:14:9, refraining from labor on THAT DAY}.{See ECCLES.9:10; ROM.7:25.}
The Mark of the beast is 666! To accept the beast's mark is to not accept God's Holy Sabbath Day Saturday as Working on the Sabbath.(reference Deut.7:8)
ACTUALLY THE MARK OF THE BEAST IS WHAT PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND! IT'S VERY SIMPLE REALLY; YOU HAVE TO DO THE OPPOSITE OF IT.
THE OPPOSITE OF THE MARK IS THE "SEAL OF GOD" WHICH IS IN THE 4TH COMMANDMENT(EXOD.20:8-11; REV.14:7). BUT IF YOU DON'T KEEP HIS DAY(MARK) AND FOLLOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH(IMAGE); HE WILL GIVE YOU THIS(REV.14:9-11).
Rev.13:16 "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive the mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads."
TO BE SUCH MEANS "AND THE BEAST WAS TAKEN, AND WITH HIM THE FALSE PROPHET THAT WROUGHT MIRACLES BEFORE HIM, WITH WHICH HE DECEIVED THEM THAT HAD RECEIVED THE MARK OF THE BEAST, AND THEM THAT WORSHIPPED HIS IMAGE. THESE BOTH WERE CAST ALIVE INTO A LAKE OF FIRE BURNING WITH BRIMSTONE."--REV.19:20
THE SYSTEM IS MADE UP OF:
TRUE CHRISTIANITY VS. FALSE CHRISTIANITY
FOLLOWING JESUS(COL.2:6) OR NOT FOLLOWING JESUS(PHIL.2:21).
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
Mostly (Rev.17:5)"Mother of Harlots" means it has "daughters" that are following the church's beliefs. Many don't know that the Catholic Church has "casted all the true doctrines to the ground and replaced them with false ones(Dan.8:12). For instance: Trinity (saying Jesus was here as spirit and flesh); when the Bible says (1John 4:2-3; 1John 1:7)"he came fully in the flesh."
For example:
CATHOLIC CHURCH--
Trinity, Going to heaven, Rapture, Jesus's Death Friday and Resurrection Sunday, Worship Sunday, Pagan Feast Days and etc.
SUNDAY CHURCHES--
Follow the same beliefs.
SDA(Seventh Day Adventists)--
Trinity, Going to Heaven, Pagan Feast Days, Jesus's Death Friday and Resurrection Sunday.
OTHER SABBATH CHURCHES--
One or more of the Catholic Doctrines.
JEHOVAH WITNESSES--
Jesus's Death Friday and Resurrection Sunday
I only know one church that isn't following the Catholic Church and that is The Living Church of God.(Eph.5:27; Acts 20:28)

Wow ... lots of misinformation here.
First, the current Pope is not Austrian. He's from Germany.
Second, where do you get this twisted idea that "his friends are all Nazis"?
Third, I'm assuming that you think Benedict XVI is a Nazi because he was in the Hitler Youth when he was a boy.
But that doesn't make him a Nazi anymore than compulsory membership in the military automatically makes someone a warmonger.
History lesson for you: During Hitler's reign in Germany, all boys were REQUIRED to be in the Hitler Youth -- whether they were true Nazis or not, whether they wanted to be or not.
Your insinuation that Joseph Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict) was a Nazi, due to compulsory membership in a Nazi youth organization over which he had no control, is ignorant -- not to mention cruel.

First of all, the Pope isn't Austrian, he's German, but I don't see a reason to presume he is surrounded by Nazi's. He was just visiting Poland, where I live, and he visited a Nazi concentration camp. He prayed at the wall of tears in Auschwitz, talked to ex-prisoners, and gave his blessing. I see no reason why he should be thought of as the Anti-Christ. Just because he's from a country that has bred evil in the past doesn't mean, that he himself is against what he preaches.

Well,
I have thought for a long time that one of the Popes will be the Anti Christ. Why I think this is because the Anti Christ according to the bible will call for peace in the beginning and he will be of the Roman Empire.
I myself could not think of anyone else who people will listen to from all religions other than the POPE.
I don't think this Pope is the Anti Christ because I believe this Antichrist person will be of Roman descent.Read in Revelations you will see the Anti cHrist will come from the Roman Empire
However you never know.
One minister stated if you are a Christian and you know who the Antichrist is, Guess what? You have been left behind.
Powerful statement-
I think we shouldn't focus on the Antichrist because I think we should focus more on getting out of here by honoring Gods law.
One last thing about the Catholic Church-
I urge anyone who wants to know the truth about the evil history of the Catholic church get the movie Luther
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002C9D9U/qid=1151586953/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/102-9332337-4557710?s=dvd&v=glance&n=130
Martin Luther, the 16th-century priest who led the Christian Reformation and opened up new possibilities in exploration of faith. The film begins with his vow to become a monk, and continues through his struggles to reconcile his desire for sanctification with his increasing abhorrence of the corruption and hypocrisy pervading the Church's hierarchy. He is ultimately charged with heresy and must confront the ruling cardinals and princes, urging them to make the Scriptures available to the common believer and lead the Church toward faith through justice and righteousness

No, Jimmy Carter is the Anti-Christ, or a minimum of will exchange into thee Anti-Christ after the dying of President Obama! I observed the dying of President Obama in a dream! Obama is the seventh King in Rev. 17:10 (additionally in Daniel 11:20) who will die till now his term in workplace is over with! The Bible says in Rev. that Anti-Christ replaced into between the previous presidents till now him and could serve a 2nd term in workplace after the dying of Obama! The Anti-Christ would be between the 7 kings in Rev. 17:10 And there are seven kings: 5 are fallen, and one is, [and] the different isn't yet come; and whilst he cometh, he ought to proceed a quick area. those 7 kings have been all alive whilst George W. Bush replaced into the President in 2001 and that they've been: a million. Gerald Ford 2. Jimmy Carter 3. Ronald Reagan 4. George H. W. Bush 5. invoice Clinton................those 5 are fallen. 6. George W. Bush.... is spoken of interior the present demanding (and one is) via fact till Reagan died all 7 have been alive whilst George W. Bush replaced into in workplace! 7. Barack Obama....... [and] the different isn't yet come; and whilst he cometh, he ought to proceed a quick area. Obama is likewise in Daniel 11:20 Then shall arise in his property a raiser of taxes [in] the attention of the dominion: yet interior of few days he would be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in conflict. i've got faith that Daniel 11:20 is prophecy asserting that Obama would be a raiser of taxes and die interior of a few days after that! The angel Gabriel advised me in Aug. 1973 that Jimmy Carter is the Anti-Christ and that he is going to alter his call and divorce his spouse! additionally i observed the dying of Obama in a imaginitive and prescient in 1978, and back in a dream!

Gotta love picture of him in his Hitler Youth uniform.
The Catholic apologists will tell you he was forced to be a member of the Hitler Youth and that he rejected fascism. RIGHT. That would explain the open minded and free thinking ideas coming out of the church.
PS There is no anit-Christ, there is no god.
