While I know the microchip has been thought of as a candidate for the Mark of the Beast (MOTB) for the last 20 years or so, I think many will recall; it was not always thought so. Not long ago, it would never even have been thought of! Now, I’m not calling what I'm about to say a revelation, but I had a thought that might be even more realistic than a microchip. I suppose I found it weird to imagine people getting chips implanted in their forehead just to buy and sell. Now, I want to preface that by saying, getting a chip, or any device to buy and sell is not a sin in and of itself; it’s only bad when it become the only method of payment, in conjunction with it being a command from the AC’s directives ALONG with worship of the AC. Now, about the forehead chip. I don’t know if many have thought of this, but in a way, did you know that many of us have likely already bought and sold with out hands and foreheads, and thought nothing of it?? Im referring to Apple Pay, of course (and the like). How often does signing into bill pay, or Apple Pay, require a thumbprint for approval? Always, unless you manually turn it off. If you think a thumbprint disqualifies that (I beg to differ), handprint verification wouldn’t be that hard for these companies to implement either. But what else have they implemented? If you haven’t guessed by now, I’m referring to retina scans. Sure, eyeballs aren’t literally the forehead, but close enough. Think about what you imagined when it comes to the MOTB...probably someone placing their hand or forehead against a scanner. But that was not anything John would’ve truly understood, or been able to explain in modern terms. Who knows exactly how it was depicted, but the gist is that payment was processed through the hand or forehead. If you want to be literal, you could infer cash was going to come flying out of people’s eyeballs, but no one believes that (I hope). What if John interpreted it as a mark, when it was fingerprint/retina scans? They don’t literally leave a mark on your skin, but it’s a mark (or print) of your retina/thumbprint which approves payment. Just a thought that seems more likely the more and more I think about it. God put a mark on Cain so no one would kill him. A mark back then was a tattoo or a brand so I would have to go with that as the motb. L.A. Marzulli has an interesting and entertaining take on the mark. He says it's going to be something created by the fallen angels that's going to be implanted into a body that changes a persons DNA and gives people who take it super powers. Yep we are slowly being forced into the NWO system. Here in America our drivers license is considered our national identity card. I’m sure there is a chip inside that plastic card and they stress they need a new photo every time you go for renewal ... and that photo is placed in their database so the police across the country has quick access to it in case they stop you for a traffic violation. I was told at the local DMV our eyes are our finger prints. I don’t fly anymore but I’m sure the passports must have some type of chip embedded as well and all the major credit cards all now have the chip. When I purchased my dog it was upsetting to me to see on his paperwork that he was chipped. I wanted to get it removed at the vet but they were soooo happy he was chipped and claimed if he was stolen they can locate him right away. So I prayed and asked the Lord to keep my dog from getting cancer because I strongly feel having a chip embedded under the skin is linked to cancer. I’m still on the fence with whether the mark of the beast is going to be a chip or a patch tattoo with a barcode symbol. I also believe they will be injecting people with a “fountain of youth” serum that they claim will make them like gods and they will live forever and that will changed their DNA to a beast and no longer redeemable. Also the NWO will have control over a person’s mind and that will also cause them to not be able to think clearly and will continually reject the Truth (Jesus). I just saw a 5:27 minute youtube a few days ago from Tim Henderson about this subject. He was in a grocery store and his debit card took a few moments to process the payment transfer and this young cashier said you know soon there will be no more delays in paying ... once you get a chip in your hand. When he told her the dangers of being chipped and mentioned the Bible and Jesus she got very angry and said she doesn’t believe in God ... but get this ... she said once she gets chipped she claims she will become a god. This is what they are teaching in secular colleges and are already believing thee lie. There has also been speculation about injectable dyes, as like in our paper money. Again, the scripture informs that taking the mark is only the beginning. Secondly, people will have to worship the Beast also. All of these items may simply be a type of preconditioning for the true mark! I don't believe that the enemy will settle for anything covert or invisible to identify his own. He is too arrogant to settle for anything other than high visibility, IMHO. Branding has been around for quite some time. Then there is also scarring. I believe that Cain was visibly scarred, so it's safe to imagine that the enemy would do likewise and imitate God. TR So, it is truly closer than you think and easier... Our old friends at Amazon have taken care to make it happen! :prayer-hands: “fair use”
