Hopefully I am doing this correctly. The Rapture in The Air Now facebook page had this video from Pastor Tom Hughes: The caption of the video is: "In this week's Prophecy Update with Tom Hughes, we look at 6 signs of Bible Prophecy in motion. From the Mark of the Beast to the apostate Church, it seems the stage for the final days is being set. What does the Bible have to say about these days? Let's find out!" The video is pretty short; about 9 minutes. At the 4:43 minute mark, Pastor Tom talks about the "ID2020 Alliance’ and how it will combine vaccinations and implantable ID microchips and they will be mandatory. This news is neither surprising nor shocking considering the steady progress we keep making toward the mark of the beast. Yet; somehow, this manages to surprise AND shock me. We've been hearing about the mark of the Beast and chips for some time now. Not surprising. When the world refuses to let God be Lord and take upon themselves their own destinies, it's all about the power. The world will refuse to bend their knee and worship God until the end. It's all about the self glorification of Man, and not submission to God! TR Agreed, TenderReed. I've been reading about "a" microchip for a few years now. The thing I feel is a little different is that Bill Gates is involved and the use of the word "mandatory" for both a vaccine and the chip. I read they are cracking down now with those living in NJ and making it mandatory that every one is up with their shots. My cousin is homeschooling her 2 kids because she doesn’t want them to have the shots because she feels its linked to autism. I know of 2 mothers here in Vermont that had healthy kids but once they got the school shots ... one son and one daughter soon developed autism behavior afterwards. I wonder what shots will include the sneaky chip implant? I know they keep pushing the flu shot on people at the doctor’s office and I keep saying NO thanks. However, I did get a tetanus shot last month. 🙁 Vaccinations in general is simply a power ploy while giving the allusion of them caring about us! I think that we need people to start applying good ole common sense as they work out their lives, as opposed to chasing down "experts"! God is the only expert I will defer to! That said, we have the warnings of scripture, what else do we need?! As we see His prophetic word play out, we also need to realize this is not a game to God. There are no brownie points for accurately predicting things in advance, nor being right! Indeed, we study to show ourselves approved, not show off! TR Please forgive me one and all. I need this type of rudder in order to properly negotiate the days we live in, and the spiritual landmines before us! No slight intended against anyone here. Being something of an intercessor/prayer warrior, I also hope to fulfill my calling as being a "priest unto the Lord"! This calling was given me nearly 40 years ago. As such, I must try to align my thoughts with His, and know His heart! TR I just read an article about the ID2020 Alliance yesterday. I'm glad you posted this video. I just saw this article ... right now they are targeting those living in Bangladesh and getting their identity into the “system”. But they even admit they won’t stop there ... they will then target other Gavi-eligible countries, (I was clueless of what Gavi stood for - Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization) providing a viable route to closing the identity gap. They are partnership with MyPass in the U.S. trying to get the homeless into the system. And then there is iRespond for the 3,000 refugees receiving treatment for chronic conditions from the International Rescue Committee in Thailand. Boy, they sure make it sound like what they are doing is so pleasant and harmless. :wacko: But we know all the platform systems will eventually be merged together for the big leader ... ID2020 and partners launch program to provide digital ID with vaccines Biometric update.com The ID2020 Alliance has launched a new digital identity program at its annual summit in New York, in collaboration with the Government of Bangladesh, vaccine alliance Gavi, and new partners in government, academia, and humanitarian relief. The program to leverage immunization as an opportunity to establish digital identity was unveiled by ID2020 in partnership with the Bangladesh Government’s Access to Information (a2i) Program, the Directorate General of Health Services, and Gavi, according to the announcement. “We are implementing a forward-looking approach to digital identity that gives individuals control over their own personal information, while still building off existing systems and programs,” says Anir Chowdhury, policy advisor at a2i. “The Government of Bangladesh recognizes that the design of digital identity systems carries far-reaching implications for individuals’ access to services and livelihoods, and we are eager to pioneer this approach.” Gavi CEO Seth Berkley says that 89 percent of children and adolescents who do not have identification live in countries where the organization is active. “We are enthusiastic about the potential impact of this program not just in Bangladesh, but as something we can replicate across Gavi-eligible countries, providing a viable route to closing the identity gap,” he says. A partnership was also formed earlier this year between Gavi, NEC, and Simprints to use biometrics to improve vaccine coverage in developing nations. “Digital ID is being defined and implemented today, and we recognize the importance of swift action to close the identity gap,” comments ID2020 Executive Director Dakota Gruener. “Now is the time for bold commitments to ensure that we respond both quickly and responsibly. We and our ID2020 Alliance partners, both present and future, are committed to rising to this challenge.” ID2020 also announced new partnerships and provided progress reports on initiatives launched last year. Since last year’s summit, the ID2020 Alliance has been joined by the City of Austin, UC Berkeley’s CITRIS Policy Lab and Care USA. The City of Austin, ID2020, and several other partners are working together with homeless people and the service providers who engage with them to develop a blockchain-enabled digital identity platform called MyPass to empower homeless people with their own identity data. A pair of inaugural pilot programs launched last year in partnership with iRespond and Everesthave each made progress, ID2020 says. The iRespond program has improved continuity of care for more than 3,000 refugees receiving treatment for chronic conditions from the International Rescue Committee in Thailand, according to the announcement, while Everest has assisted with the provision of access to critical energy subsidies and a range of additional services with secure and user-centric digital identities without relying on a smartphone. - Fair Use - Again these types of tracking systems are going to be utilized by not by Satan or his demonic hoard for they know who are sealed by God and those who are not! But rather for the human minions that help further Satan's plans of death for mankind. Knowingly and unknowingly, There will always be a hoarde of followers. Sadly the issue is who or what are they following?! We are called to follow Christ! As such we enhance and fulfill the truest sense of being a follower. For if we do not follow Christ, we become leaders of our own destiny and destruction! TR Yep. Its going to be so hard for the left behind living in the tribulation to hide from the authorities ... right now they are going after the “poor” and perhaps even the “bond” those in prisons and putting their identity into the system. Revelation 13:16-17 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.

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:
