I believe most
everyone is familiar with the now advanced, yet ever so subtle technology
that is being used today to keep your kids located (In Europe
particularly), identify felons and convicts, travelers, RFID for numerous
patient health care reasons, and so on. It exists today, is being used
now, and is being widely accepted as the right thing to do.
Presented as a need which outweighs concerns, it is very smoothly being
integrated into our society, and people are buying into it rapidly for its
ease of use, and much more.
Consider this first - John told us it would take wisdom -
Revelation 13 -
16He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave,
to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, 17so that no one
could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast
or the number of his name.
18This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the
number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666.
This cannot be "Spiritual" because it denotes a literal mark
used for buying and selling (More on this in a moment)
The RFID and similar technology microchip is about the size of a grain of
rice, or in some cases round and about the size of a small ibuprofen pill,
only flat and thin.
Research proved that the only effective area to implant it are in the
forehead or hand.
While they have used under the arm, and a few other places, the
"IDEAL" locations are exactly as John described.
People have always wondered and attempted to "calculate" the
names, causing disputes in regarding what it meant and how to determine
the meaning of "666" and the "mark of the beast".
God brought to life The
Revelation of St. John the Divine for a reason - To help us prepare
for what lies ahead. To give insight and understanding without fear, so we
as "His Chosen" would not "Take The Mark" when the
time came.
God knew everything before it happened and has already planned our path
through the soon to come Great Tribulation.
He has already determined the final outcome – WE WIN!! – through Jesus
Christ - AMEN!!
During the time of the "Mark of the Beast", God will raise his
church (at the rapture, the Catching Away, the Translating of the
Restrainer) and pour out his wrath upon the rest of the world.
Over the last two or three decades there has been extensive advancement in
technology, just as Daniel said there would be - Another fulfillment of
prophecy never before seen as he described.
One in particular is that infamous "Mark of the Beast".
The original purpose of the RFID type chip was to restore mobility to
people with severed nerves, then it was discovered that it could be used
to modify behaviour. This opened a whole new area of research and
development.
Certain World Governments, development companies, and several other
foundations quickly realized that there were much more important uses
commercially and personally.
These more important uses begin with simple versions already being used
world wide to keep track of pets and other animals, as well as children,
convicts, certain types of medical patients, travelers, and more as I
mentioned earlier.
InfoPet has been endorsed by the ASPCA and has been selected as the global
standard for zoos and aquariums by the Captive Breeding Specialist Group
of the IUCN. Hundreds of zoos worldwide, as well as government agencies in
at least 21 countries are using the trovan system for animal
identification purposes.
Bracelet tracks kids by satellite - Two United States companies have
unveiled tracking bracelets that can locate a child within 60 seconds of a
distress call being sent.
The bracelets transmit a signal that is picked up by the Global
Positioning System network of navigational satellites.
The devices are being sold by rival US companies.
It's most important applications they say are positive identification
and control.
We can uniquely identify over 34 billion recipients and locate any one of
them via satellite to within a few feet of their location.
Testing and development in humans is well advanced in numerous countries.
Several years ago Sweden tested the chip in 6,000 men, and the U.S. in
17,000 babies -neither found any reported side effects (Easing into the
public, seemingly very helpful, useful and safe)
The chips usually contains a tiny lithium battery with charging circuits
activated by skin temp changes.
Therefore, it must be placed in a position where temperature changes occur
most rapidly.
More than 1.5 million dollars was spent finding out that the two places in
the body that the temperature changes the most rapidly are in the forehead
- Preferred, and the back of the hand.
Advanced versions of these chips contain the same information as the
SmartCards.
They can store huge amounts of personal data like your photo, your
identity, any criminal record and your purchasing history -(Most important
for tracking Buying and Selling)
It also has the ability to be used in the same way as any credit, debit or
EFTPOS card, but with the added ability that it can be filled up with a
cash value that can be used whenever you do shopping. Touted as the wave
of the future and the best thing to come along.
Plans are in place to make acceptance of the chip natural, logical and
beneficial to the general public as is already being done at am alarming
rate.
A beast that wants to appear as harmless and desirable – in order to
obtain the greatest degree of acceptance.
Right now it is still voluntary – just like credit cards – and a great
proportion of the population will receive them very willingly –
The benefits of using the "Voluntary" ID Chips -
Never fear losing your baby or any other relative again.
Never lose your money or credit card again.
No more credit card fraud – because nobody can steal your chip or even
use your chip number (I wonder what the number of the AntiChrist's Chip
will be) separately from your chip.
No need to carry money – just charge up your hand with a cash value that
can be used in public transport and other places that don't have a phone
link with banks - This is happening now in certain electronic maker
corporate structures.
No need to carry a driver's license or passport because all the
information can be contained in the chip.
It is rapidly becoming widespread and accepted.
We can expect to see alternate things like cash and credit cards slowly
disappear until the chip becomes the only legal way to buy or sell (Sounds
like Revelation to me)
Using cash, checks and credit cards will disappear - Banks will adjust
their fees on these services to eliminate them for the "better"
chip method -
People will not be able to use government services or receive government
benefits without the chip to identify themselves.
People will not be able to get employment without the chip to identify
themselves.
The governments will impose the highest tax rates to anyone not onboard
with the ID chip.
You won't be able to get paid or use your $$$, bank or pay bills without
the chip.
Hand readers will be everywhere, including the average home to allow
internet buying and selling.
Passports are already doing it, and it is only a matter of time before
driver's licenses will be completely replaced by the chip
International travel is already doing this and driving will eventually be
limited to those who have the chip.
The ability to buy or sell ANYTHING – without the chip – will
gradually diminish and eventually disappear altogether.
Laws are already in place, and others are on the way, in preparation for
the chip.
Eventually, it will become law for everyone to have the chip.
Christians will refuse to accept it, creating a faster paced requirement
and making it become law much faster.
The President of the United States already has the power to enforce the
use of the chip - (Section 100 of the Emigration and Control Act of 1996.)
There are bills before the U.S. congress right now that will allow them to
inject a microchip in your baby at the time of birth for identification
purposes.
The book of Revelation was written in Greek, so it is important to note
that any interpretation will need to consider the Greek version of the
text in order to get the clearest possible understanding.
As some have discussed already -
mark charagma
(khar'-ag-mah) A scratch or etching ie. a stamp (as a badge of servitude).
It comes from charasso (which means to sharpen to a point.) {A microchip
is an etching in a piece of silicon.}
name onoma
(on'-om-ah) A "name" (literally or figuratively) [authority,
character] – eg. Having the authority of someone's name.
count psephizo
(psay-fid'-zo) To use pebbles in enumeration, ie. (in general) to compute
or count. {Silicon chips are small pebbles of sand.)
man's anthropos
(anth'-ro-pos) Man-faced, ie. a human being – particularly a certain
individual.
666 chi xi stigma
(khee xee stig'-ma) This can be interpreted as either a number (666) or as
text:
"chi" means 600;
"xi" means 60.
"stigma" means 6, but also means a mark incised or punched (for
recognition of ownership). It comes from stizo (to "stick", ie.
prick).
Again - In Context -
{16} He [the second beast] caused everyone, small and great, rich and
poor, free and slave, to receive an etching of servitude (a chip made with
a sharp point) in their right hand, or in their foreheads; {17} so that no
one could buy or sell unless they had the etching of servitude, or the
authority of the beast, or the number of his authority. {18} Here is
wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast, for
it is an individual's [identification] number. His number is incised with
a pricking action.
"Etching" may refer to the incision into the skin, but more
likely it refers to the chip itself, because that is exactly how
microchips are made - by etching a piece of silicon with a sharp or
pointed electron beam.
That some will be able to operate using "the authority of the
beast" or with "the number of his authority" suggests that
a select few, will have the authority to buy and sell etc without the chip
being implanted in their hand or forehead.
If "the number of his authority" is interpreted as "the
number of his name", then it could mean that you would be able to use
your identification number manually (for phone or internet purchases) but
this is inconsistent with the purpose of the chip.
In Rev 16:2 it says there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men
who had the mark of the beast -
If the lithium in the chip escapes into the body, that's what'll happen!
Although there are numerous ways that the secular world has used the
number 666 the interpretation of chi xi stigma as a number (666) is
irrelevant.
The way to read it is, "Your identification number, incised or
pricked into the skin."
Look at how closely the chip fits the description in Scripture. We are
indeed very close to the time of the the Great Tribulation - Which means
the Rapture IS INDEED VERY SOON!
The Bible says many Christians will give up their faith over the issue of
whether or not to receive the mark - Again, another reason to believe it
is tangible and not Spiritual.
They will do this because resisting will be too hard –
The Word of God says this
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man
worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or
in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which
is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he
shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy
angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment
ascends up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who
worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his
name - Rev 14:9-11
The time of the mark is here - We are better prepared because we trust and
believe in God's Word -
The world will hate you for standing firm in your Christian faith. We must
hold fast to the reward that God has for those who hold on to their faith
and do not give in.
Christ IS coming to Rapture the Church Very Soon I believe!! AMEN!!
