What really is the mark of the beast?

Question

What would you do if you found that you have already accepted the mark of the beast? How do you really know?

I do agree that the globalization now taking place is a sign too big to dispute, but haven't most 'christians' already taken this mark upon themselves. How many really can claim to truly not own a credit card, driver's license and bank account?

So, what truly is the mark? And is there truly any way to avoid it? Are there any pockets of people living in a way that is free of it? (excluding non industrialized nations)

-I'm not sure when I see the local Amish buying potato chips in my local Wal-Mart.

Answer 1

The computer that was used to develop the UPS code is in Brussels,in Belgium and is situated in a building that is six stories high, six blocks wide and six blocks long and curiously enough it is called the Beast of Brussels.

Answer 2

first it is to be put in your right hand or forhead. and well i know i have not accepted it yet. it is also supposed to be of your own free will. so you cant just get put to sleep in a hospital and then wake up and have the mark of the beast in your hand or head and not know they were doing that. we do not know what it is but we will know what it is when it comes. the number of the beast is 666 but it does not say that is the mark. it is also believed that the reason for it being the right hand or forhead is most people use the right hand to shake hands with. it is polite but what if you dont have a right hand at all. or even arm? the next best place would be the head then.

right now they have a couple chips out there. like vera chip and RFID chips. they are also trying to pass a law for a national id in the us. that without it you cant have a job or bank account or anything at all. at first they tried to pass one for a implant in the right hand but that got shot down. so they are going with the card. however now they are saying that you can cut the card in half and change the info on it so they are trying to go back to the chip again. hmmmm

also there is a man that claims to be a reincarnation of budda, Jesus and muhammod(spelling not sure except for Jesus) that has been doing miracles and healings and all. and even has a plan for a world wide peace. the un is trying to get him.

the Bible aslo says in the last days to come before the tribulation there will be many backsliding or who believe in God turn there faith around and denounce him as well as a huge outpour of the Holy Ghost. for myself we believe getting filled with the Holy Ghost is accompanied by speaking in tongues as the initial evidance. and a lot more churches of other denominations and beliefs are starting to have that happen. they have a so called boot camp everyone year in florida and thousands get filled with the Holy Ghost. and same thing in cali. anyways

Answer 3

The Mark of the Beast, by what I've gathered from Evangelic interpertations, is a mark bearing the number 666 that is put on either the right hand or the forehead of all citizens.

They must have this mark in order to buy or sell.

The punishment for refusing the mark is Death.

So, if anyone tries to force that ultimatum uppon you, admit that you were wrong and convert. It sounds pretty specific, so I'm betting it won't be hard to recognise it happening.

Answer 4

It hasn't happened yet. It is a time when all people will be required to accept a mark, either on their hand or their forehead. To not take this mark, means you will neither be able to buy or sell and may be incarcertated or put to death.

The mark will be enforced by all who worship the beast, a "man" who will make Hitler look like a choir boy. This man will be someone who will rise up, and have such sway, such power and charisma, that even the believers will find him hard to resist, most will be fooled by him. He will claim to be a man of peace and will appear to have all the answers to the world's problems. People everywhere will accept him, because of his apparant logical answers. He will also have the ability to perform miracles, even healings and will claim later on, to be GOD himself. He will be either Satan in the form of man, or fully possessed by Satan. But he will be antichrist. People may not even recognise him for what he is until much later. The entire world will fall under his charm, and that will not be difficult, as his father is the Devil himself, who already is the prince of this world.

Those who accept him and receive his mark, will have made their pact with him and the devil and will find their lot in Hell. Those who resist to the end, will be saved. It will be the worst time the earth as ever known. God will shorten those times for the sake of the elect. Otherwise no flesh would be saved.

The mark is 666, the number of a man.

I do not believe those who have accepted the cards, or the driver's license of today etc have anything to do with this event that has yet to occur. We "may"be leading up to that time and this could be a preparation to try and get people to be more receptive when it comes.

By the time the mark is enforced on all people, this man will already be known what he is. God's holy spirit will be on the earth like never before and the courage will be beyond belief!

for those that believe in God, they have nothing to fear, as the body maybe put to death, but the soul saved. When that time arrives, there is every way to avoid it, God will provide and will not let anybody fall into that trap if they are trying to stay faithful and believe. Many people will also be hidden, some will face trial and possibly death.

The time will not last long, but will be literally hell on earth.

lol i had to laugh at your last comment!

Answer 5

It says in the Bible that you can not take the mark by accident. The mark will be on the forehead or the right hand. It will depict the antichrist. This will not happen until we are well into the Tribulation. First the signing of the covenant of peace between the antichrist and Jersulam must be made. That will give you an indication. You will know what the mark is meant for.

Answer 6

Think RFID. Read Michael Ruppert's Crossing the Rubicon. Realize that they can put everything about you on a chip. Yet it's only being tested on a piecemeal basis. Dog's and Cats, people in various countries who are having chips planted in their foreheads etc. It's all been in a development phase and is nearing implementation. Frankly the rapture will happen first. Then these plans will be implemented. It is near though, even at the door.

Answer 7

you recognize there are such difficulty as loonies accessible, who think of they see and hear issues, that are actually not probably there. there are a number of of of folk who do loopy and silly issues. Why are you blaming christians? as a results of fact the Bible explains the mark of the beast? This guy of course became living in concern, in actuality HE needs JESUS! What if it have been some guy who decrease off his hand as a results of fact he mentioned he observed a image of the stickmoose on it-- could this make him much less loopy? common there is somebody accessible who does something outrageous and it makes the headlines. i think sorry for those human beings. edit: additionally to those who're speaking approximately if this guy somewhat did have the mark, do you recognize this won't ensue till the upward push of the anti christ comes into ability?

Answer 8

We are relying upon the spirit of God to alert us to what it is exactly when it does arrive. The money system is in place but I try to be careful not to be conditioned to it. Each new convenience is another step closer such as on-line banking. You have a point and it's true we must live to where mammon isn't our priority but faith in God to provide for our needs. Christians are concerned with the national I.D. The mark will divide the wheat from the chaff, those who have their names in the Lamb's book of life and those who don't. That will be it once you choose. Unprecedented to choose eternal life or death long before our deaths and not have anymore chance to repent once it's accepted. You will need to have made your choice long before it arrives or you will be decieved. The only way to avoid the mark is to have the blood of Jesus in your heart and stay really close to Him and listen to His voice. His sheep know His voice and a stranger they will not follow.

Answer 9

In the Bible, beasts are used to represent human governments. And the number 6 represents the day that God created man. It is used 3 times for emphasis as in Holy, Holy, Holy when referring to God. Therefore, if this mark is to be placed on the forehead (what you think) and on the hand (what you do) and represents loyalty to a human government, it could take alot of different forms, but basically it shows whether or not your allegiance is to man and your faith is in the governments he has created or whether your allegiance is to God's government with Jesus Christ as it's ruling king. The angels are the ones who will determine who has the mark and they will destroy each one who is unwilling to yield to God.
