If they said that they could eliminate identity and credit card theft, find lost children, track criminals better, better immigration procedures etc. BUT, you remember one of your fairy tale believing friends who said that this would be a sign of the end of the age, would you still do it?

By the way, I am a Bible thumping Christian who believes that "fairy tale." that for all who thought I was "dissing" the Good Book.

To Jan,
If I am not mistaken, acceptance of the chip or amrk will also require allegiance be sworn to the beast does it not?

No one but God knows when the End Time will come but prophecies are being fulfilled every day and it could happen at any moment. I will not have anything put on my hand or forehead. For other Christians who may read this, I have been studying Revelations this past week....digging deep to better understand. I've found a great website where you can read the Bible in many different languages and versions. It is a great place to read the KJV for its beauty and then switch to the Amplified or more modern versions to clarify certain things. Check out www.BibleGateway.com if you are interested. God bless.

the issue with doing this with an oven is loss of moisture. The rice can tend to dry out the longer this is interior the oven. What you're able to do is poach the calzone, meaning putting it in aluminum foil with some water. The water boils and keeps the calzone from drying out. it fairly is an extremely undemanding thank you to poach fish, with butter fairly than water, on a grill actual... I try this with salmon many times. You fairly make a bag out of aluminum foil this is loosely sealed and is greater off the nutrition on actual and factors. positioned the aluminum bag onto a cookie sheet or different baking pan to furnish help over that presented by an oven shelf. upload some herbs and garlic and different seasonings to the bag to augment average style.

No, but not for any religious reason
RFID is not secure. It is frighteningly easy to hack by someone who knows what they're doing. There is no way I'm putting all my very personal information on that.
In addition to which it makes all my libertarian nerves stand up and scream. For reasons completely unrelated to religion, the idea of the government having that much knowledge about people's lives and movements is just frightening. Do you trust government that much? I don't.
(And re: the Mark of the Beast. I don't think it will be something that sneaks up on us and takes us off guard. I think that when it happens it will require a very conscious choice between God and denial of him. I don't know what form this will take, but I'm pretty sure it's not RFID. RFID is just a bad idea for completely different reasons)

Gee, we are sure lacking Biblical literacy, aren't we?
They can insert all the chips they want to;
they can tattoo "666" from head to toe;
it does not change what you think, or what you believe.
The mark of the beast is not ON your forehead, its IN YOUR FOREHEAD. What is IN your forehead? Your brain.
Those who have the mark of the beast are those who are deceived and believe that the Antichrist (when he comes) is the true Christ. "Is this the MAN who deceived the whole world?"
666:
6th seal
6th vial
6th trump
There is nothing fairytale about the Word of God; you just don't understand it.
If you really want to investigate what the mark of the beast is all about, you will find the mark's beginning in Genesis, right on Cain when he was thrown out of the Garden of Eden.

Absolutely not. The gov can not guarantee that they won't use the chip for other reasons. There is always a loophole in legislation that allows for the "other". Gov and lawyers know how to trick people into believing what they're getting is a good thing, but you have to know how to read into things to get real answers.

I'm not sure if I would. But if I didn't it wouldn't be because of the "end times" people who thought it was "bar codes" and before that "social security numbers".
I would have qualms about it the same way I have issues with what Bush has done with Habeus Corpus

No I wouldn't. I won't give up my freedoms for a little more security. Call me selfish if you wish. I don't care about the End of Times or other such myths. I just don't trust my own government at all.

You're right. Your heart has to be right to see the truth...and many American Christians are hard workers but in love with prosperity, and will not 'see' the mark when push comes to shove.
It's not a cerebral decision, but a 'heart' decision, so many Christians will be decieved.

No. But it is not to far from so many carrying cell phones that can be tracked.....and the stretch is not far from using the Internet....the more you use technology the more you can be tracked even if you take great steps to try to cover your tracks the tracks are still there......
