No one knows exactly when this will come to be, but I believe the mark of the beast will be installed in a computer chip and that chip will be inserted in either ones palm or forehead. Those that refuse to accept the mark, will not be allowed to buy groceries, do banking, or anything at all without this identity chip, but if we accept the chip, then we are accepting satan and will not go to heaven. Christians will need to take a stand in these final days....but some believe that Christians will be taken up in the rapture before this happens, others believe Christians will be taken up mid tribulation..before the mark comes into being. I tend to believe in the later.

The Bible book of Daniel sheds much light on the meaning of symbolic beasts. Chapter 7 contains a vivid tableau of “four huge beasts”—a lion, a bear, a leopard, and a fearsome beast with big teeth of iron. (Daniel 7:2-7) Daniel tells us that these beasts represent “kings,” or political kingdoms, that rule in succession over vast empires.—Daniel 7:17, 23.
Regarding the beast of Revelation 13:1, 2, The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible points out that it “combines in itself the joint characteristics of the four beasts of Daniel’s vision . . . Accordingly, this first beast [of Revelation] represents the combined forces of all political rule opposed to God in the world.” This observation is affirmed by Revelation 13:7, which says of the beast: “Authority was given it over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.”
Why does the Bible use beasts as symbols of human rulership? For at least two reasons. First, because of the beastly record of bloodshed that governments have accrued over the centuries. “War is one of the constants of history,” wrote historians Will and Ariel Durant, “and has not diminished with civilization or democracy.” How true that “man has dominated man to his injury”! (Ecclesiastes 8:9) The second reason is that “the dragon [Satan] gave to the beast its power and its throne and great authority.” (Revelation 12:9; 13:2) Accordingly, human rulership is a product of the Devil, thus reflecting his beastly, dragonlike disposition.—John 8:44; Ephesians 6:12.
This does not mean, however, that every human ruler is a direct tool of Satan. Indeed, in one sense, human governments serve as “God’s minister,” giving structure to human society, without which chaos would rule. And some leaders have protected fundamental human rights, including the right to engage in true worship—something that Satan does not want. (Romans 13:3, 4; Ezra 7:11-27; Acts 13:7) Still, because of the Devil’s influence, no human or human institution has ever been able to bring lasting peace and security to the people.
A third clue to the meaning of 666 lies in its being “a man’s number,” or as The Amplified Bible puts it, “a human number.” This expression could not refer to an individual human, for Satan—not any man—has authority over the beast. (Luke 4:5, 6; 1 John 5:19; Revelation 13:2, 18) Rather, the beast’s having “a human number,” or mark, suggests that it is a human entity, not spirit or demon, and that it therefore manifests certain human traits. What might they be? The Bible answers, saying: “All [humans] have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23) The beast’s having “a human number,” therefore, indicates that governments reflect the fallen human condition, the mark of sin and imperfection.

666 - 3 cycles of 6 numbers each; computers apparently run well on cycles of 6 numbers; we already have the technology to imbed computer chips under the skin; we already do it for our pets (well, I don't, but it's being done). I don't know if we'll be beheaded, but we will certainly have a very hard time of it when we reject it (and I'm certainly planning on rejecting it). I don't think we'll be "forced," although I do believe we'll be horribly punsihed for not accepting it. The alternative won't be pretty.

I remember the story circulating a couple of years back that said that every barcode on every product in the world has a 6 at the beginning, middle and end. I always found it amusing picturing this computer tech somewhere designing the barcode chuckling to himself as he finished his design.

Yes it has reached those some people has accepted it. I do think that we will be forced becuase police and the law will want to catch criminals with it. But I think that the people who are forced to wear it wont go to hell. Just remember that god is love and he is the perfect judge, so If someone is forced to have it I dont think that it will lead you away from god. But you should always fight back and try your hardest not to get it. I'ts like some sorth of chip that they put in your wrist.

Hopefully you won't be here....I'm hoping for the Rapture that is when God's people are changed in the twinkling of an eye and we rise and go with him....
God's wrath is coming to those who rejected him and would not listen to his son....Remember God will do exactly what he wants....We need him he does not need us. He can create other beings.....It is so ignorant to deny him...
Yes I believe in the Mark of the beast. It is coming and God will allow it because of sin. If you want to be a Christian in that day you will be beheaded. And the others that will have to take the mark will develop boils and infections that will kill them. Some very bad days are coming to everyone that did not go in the Rapture.

Honestly why do people need to create future fear? Isn't today enough for you? What if you are wasting your precious time creating fear about something that will never happen in your life time. Think of the amount of energy it will require from you to analyze word events to see if you can see it coming.
Life is what happens while you are planning for the future.

No, it's fantasy. Religion certainly turns men into beasts, but they get no special numbers.
