REVELATION 14 : 9 --11

"
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 ascendeth up forever and ever;
and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name
."
-- Revelation / Apocalypse 14: 9--11

Pope says hell is real and eternal
"It was described by St. Matthew as a place of "everlasting fire" (Matthew 25: 41 )
"Depart from Me , ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels ".

"The problem is not only that our sense of sin has declined, but also that the world wars and totalitarianisms of the 20th century created a hell on earth as bad as anything we can imagine in the afterlife," Professor Agostino Paravicini Bagliani said.
http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,21460090-2,00.html

In Revelation Chapter 14, verses 9 and  11, the angel twice commands the entire world  not to
worship the beast.

The word "worship" includes :
to honor, to extol, to praise, to give prime preference, give dignity, give homage, ardent loyalty, to bow down, to pray ( speak forth publicly in ceremony ) , give respect, reverence, give devotion ( fullest attention ), venerate, participate in ritual or rite, undue allegiance, intense love for, admiration, adore, idolize, be congregate with ( participate in audience; interactive)

The angel itemizes the forms of worship that are absolutely condemned, with the consequence of spending eternity in the Lake of Fire :

1. Any form of worshiping the beast

2. Any form of worshipping his
image
On smart cards: PIV, e-ID, REAL ID, Natioanl ID cards, Driver's license etc. ; TV, the internet, as a statue, on posters, fliers, as a holograms, on large screens in the malls and in stadiums etc. etc. )

3. Anyone who receives his
mark in his hand or forehead

Revelation 13: 17 tells us that the mark is required for all purchasing.
But not only is his mark required for all purchasing, but also his
NAME and his number.
His name and number are as one, using Hebrew Gematria. ( 666 )

The angel tells us in Rev. 14:11 that we cannot receive the mark of his NAME.

Any of the above constitutes judgement for that individual.

As we see technology progress, we come to realize that the System has devised a way around the subdermal chip for tracking all people.

To take the National ID card
( new driver's license with a multifunctional microprocessor chip embedded in it)
at
this point in time ( August 2006 ) does not constitute worshipping the beast.

However, if at any time the beast's
name or number or image become associated with the National ID card
( also called "REAL ID " ), at
THAT point one would be a participant in the Beast system, forbidden in the Bible.

That is the way we see it. We would not accept a "REAL ID" card
which had the name, or image of the beast affiliated with it.

Others may not see it that way, but that is the way we see it.


"This antichrist system would require every user to ultimately receive a mark in their right hand or forehead.
Such a system is now being set up, and indications of it are everywhere.
Ministers should be crying out and warning their congregations
."
Last Trumpet Ministries --Aug 2004


WHAT the WORD has to say

References to the 666 Mark of the Beast in the Bible:

Revelation 13:16-18... he causeth all to receive a mark in their right hand or forehead.
The number of the man is 666. [ the number of his name ]

Revelation 14: 9-11...God's judgement upon those who worship the beast ,
[ give allegiance to ]
or his image, or who receive the mark of his name.

Revelation 15:2..victory over the beast, and his IMAGE [ holograms ?] , mark and number.
Would "image" also include an external tattoo to go along with the internal chip ?
That would show public endorsement of-- and allegiance to --- the Beast ;
as well as solidarity with the System. [ political correctness]
Perhaps the antichrist's image will be on smart cards ( National IDs, PIV cards, e-ID, REAL ID, driver's license etc. ).

Revelation 16: 2 tells us that a noisome and grievous sore is upon BOTH: those who have the mark,
and
also upon those who worshipped the image of the beast [ showed public display ]

Revelation 20:4
... beheaded saints for Jesus---did not take the mark in their forehead or right hand
"and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded ( Ed: perhaps by guillotine or sword )
for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God
[ Bible ] , and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands;
and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years"

Ed: They most likely will have to deliver your body parts by Extremely-Fast Airmail ... and we all know that
the U.S. Mail Dept. has an
eagle as its logo. So is this what is meant by
" and where the carcass is , there will the eagles be gathered." ? Matthew 24: 28

"With a waiting list for organs 8,000 patients long, and 1,000 people dying each year due to organ unavailability, the U.K. has announced plans to overhaul its organ donation system. As part of this new effort, doctors and nurses will be pressured to identify more organ donors ahead of time and to alert organ donation coordinators as patients approach death. The government seeks to appoint a doctor in each hospital as a donation "champion," to be paired with a lay person who can do outreach on the topic.
The government admits that a conflict of interest might occur when
doctors are encouraged to view still-living patients as potential organ sources.

Cadavers, Body parts and Implants
-- Oct. 5, 2007
Three Philadelphia funeral directors led a scheme in which more than 1,000 cadavers were dismembered in unsanitary conditions and the parts sold to doctors who implanted them in patients, a grand jury charged on Thursday.
At least five Philadelphia-area hospitals, and 41 across Pennsylvania, implanted tissue from Biomedical Tissue Services, the company run by Mastromarino, according to the report.
Bodies at the funeral homes often sat for days without refrigeration before the tissue was harvested. One corpse sat for 113 hours after death, violating a medical protocol that tissue must be harvested within 15 hours of death to be safe for use in a living person, the report said

Demand exceeds supply -- April 1, 2007
Big Bucks Industry
Geneva, April 1 (AP): Demand for human organ transplants far exceeds supply
WHO encourages countries to make use more of the organs of their own deceased people rather than let citizens buy them from developing countries
In Western countries, package deals are advertised on the Internet ranging from USD 12,000 to USD 20,000 to receive a kidney

"Death" comes sooner than expected, for organ transplanting -- March 12, 2008

The bill declares that lower-brain death and the halt of breathing can be determined solely by a pair of doctors authorized by a steering committee appointed by the director-general of the Health Ministry.
Halevy estimated that when the bill became law, the number of ADI registrants as potential organ donors would rise by 10 percent to 20%, and this would be significant.

Death Penalty
Instead, Rushford said he supports using carbon monoxide, which he described as being "simple, fast, and painless."
Chapman disagreed with that assessment. But he had another idea. "The simplest thing I know of is the guillotine. And I'm not at all opposed to bringing it back. The person's head is cut off and that's the end of it."
Comment from Blaze4him --RR MB
In Bible prophecy we see the very real possibility exists that the guillotine is going to be reintroduced as a means to put people to death in the Tribulation Period in Revelation 20:4:
"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years

Traffiking in the souls of men Rev. 18: 13
China's Body Parts from religous persons -- July 22, 2006

On the other hand, last year a Chinese health official admitted that the organs of executed prisoners were being sold to foreigners. A new Chinese law now prohibits taking organs without written permission -- even as China has launched a new fleet of execution vans that are turning lethal injection into a movable feat.
There is no question that China is persecuting Falun Gong members. In 2004, the U.S. State Department reported that, "tens of thousands of practitioners remained incarcerated in prisons, extrajudicial re-education-through-labor camps and psychiatric facilities.

China has seen a steep rise in organ transplants over the past six years -- from 18,500 in six-year period 1994 to 1999 -- to 60,000 in 2000 to 2005. (That figure was extrapolated from the China Medical Organ Transplant Association.) With no sign of a rise in the number of brain-dead donors and family members donating organs, the report found, "the source of 41,500 transplants for the six-year period 2000 to 2005 is unexplained."
According to the report, one transplant doctor volunteered to a caller that he had 10 "beating hearts" available at his hospital. If Western democracies do nothing; if they continue allow their citizens to buy Chinese organs from unwilling donors, the developing world threatens to devolve into one big organ bazaar -- with human life itself as a hot commodity available to the highest bidder.

Traffiking in Body Parts
... the reason for beheadings
Body Merchants -- an Abomination
Ed: In February of 2006 in California, the issue of lethal injection is being questioned. We look for the outcome to terminate all lethal injections for criminals ( later on "dissidents" ) and for the death oenalty ( "capital punishment" ) to be beheadings. After a person is beheaded, his body parts can be traffiked for profit.

The IMAGE of the Beast www.cybertime.net/~ajgood/image.html


In the 13th Chapter of Revelation we are told that the second beast ( the false prophet ) has everyone worship the image of the first beast, under pain of death. Actually the death sentence is mentioned in connection with the worshipping of the image , and not with the taking of the mark of the beast .

"and cause that as many would not worship the image of the beast should be killed"
Revelation 13:15


In other words, it will become a capital offense if one does not exalt and pay homage to the
image of the best (
see Daniel Chapter Three) but the death sentence will not be upon those refusing the mark directly. Indirectly it will apply, since they will not give their allegiance to the beast.

economically excluded, cut-off.....
The reason that the System does not have to force the mark on anyone is obvious. If one doesn't take the implanted chip for all financial transactions, he will eventually be unable to buy and obtain food, keep a job, pay his rent or any bills.
That person will be put into a perilous, survivalist position.

Will God allow that person to starve to death ? We believe that starvation will
not be the cause of death. We base this upon the following Scriptures:
Psalm 37:verse 3, verse 19, and verse 25.....

"I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken,
nor his seed begging bread."
Psalm 37:25

"Trust in the Lord and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land,
and verily thou shalt be fed."
Psalm 37: 3

"They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine, they shall be satisfied."
Psalm 37:19

" The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish."
Proverbs 10: 3

" The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord
shall not want any good thing."
Psalm 34: 10

So we see from Scripture that those who refuse the mark of the beast will not die by starvation. They
will hunger daily ( Rev. 7: 16 ), but hunger will not be the cause of their death, as we see it. Again, we base this upon Scripture.
One either believes that, or one doesn't.

To be in the Great Tribulation is for one to be in dire straits. It is NOT a desirable position to be in. However, if one is in the Great Tribulation, God is with that person who trusts in Him.
"I will never leave thee nor forsake thee" Hebrews 13: 5
Remember, there will be a group of people (
we call the Millennials) who will survive each and every day of the three and a half years of the Great Tribulation, and they will inherit the earth.


For the Last Days : Matthew Chapter 10

"And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul:
but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" Matthew 10:28

VeriChip and Biblical commentary.... wedg ---Dec. 31, 2001
http://www.upway.com/cgi-bin/readnews.cgi?day=01_12_31&item=#1009820142

The System
A heresy going around these days is that if you take the mark--without giving your allegiance--that that is OK. We believe that is heresy. That is wrong. 2 Peter 2:1.
To take the Mark
IS to show allegiance. [ submission to the beast and his system ]
You cannot take the
Mark of the Beast -- to transact financially in the number of his name --no matter what.
There are no outs. The Bible is very clear on this matter.
It also says in the Bible that anyone who
adds to the words of Revelation
[ beyond the concepts explicitly given ] will have to receive the plagues written in the book.

Rev. 22:18.
"And if any man shall
take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the Book of Life, and out of the Holy City, and from the things which are written in this book." Rev. 22:19

There are some hypothetical situations brought up by some that only God can answer. Our mission is to report what the Word says. It says : Don't take the 666 Mark of the Beast no matter what ( for commercial purposes ) . So that is what we pass on. If some want to ask God about "special circumstances", then they will have to hear from God on the matter. We leave that to Him. Having examined Scripture thoroughly, we see no outs whatsoever.
To allow just one exception, opens Pandora's box to a multitude of exceptions and makes all the warnings void.
So we do not believe in ANY exceptions. God's Word is final.

What Does the Bible Say ?

But an
X-Files-type scheme where
everyone is forcibly marked and monitored by the government worries both civil libertarians and Christians, who believe new technologies such as biometrics and biochips may be the feared "Mark of the Beast" of Biblical lore that is described in Revelations 13:16:
"
He [ causeth all ], small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, [ or ]the name of the beast or the number of his name." [ see KJV Authorized for correct translation]
http://www.wired.com/news/privacy/0,1848,50187-2,00.html

The Christian World www.geocities.com/disciplepp Paul Polyrakis, from the Island of Malta
Pastor Polyrakis has graciously consented to translate "Shopping with 666" into Greek for our website. May the Lord greatly bless him for that.
Pastor Paul shared with us how the word "mark" in Greek is "XARAGMA" which is our word "charagma"....meaning an engraving. This helps us to understand that the Mark is
IN the hand, rather than 'on' the hand.

Newer Bibles versus the Original Authorized King James Bible
Only the KJV Bible says that the 666 MOB is
IN the hand or forehead...all the others say "on".
Why did the modern versions decide to change this highly significant word ?
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/mar2002/markr35-11.htm

Compare and see for yourself. Only the Authorized King James Bible has the correct interpretation.
The modern versions say "on" rather than "in" the right hand..

"I marvel that you are so soon removed from Him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another Gospel...which is NOT another."

"But there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the Gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other Gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed."

"As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other Gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed." Galatians 1:6-9

"if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect"... Matthew 24:24

Don't imbed a chip in my flesh

http://www.philly.com/mld/philly/business/technology/3435160.htm

Comment:
"A "medical" verichip segment ran yesterday afternoon right after a series of segments on Israel and the ME.
God opened the door for me to witness about both to my unsaved BIL. [brother-in-law]

It was great. As the "medicinal segment" was running I was busy explaining the "non-medicinal" ways this chip can be used. Just as I finished, almost on key, a guy pipes up on the segment and starts saying how they can also use the chip to track people with GPS, allow you to make monetary/banking transactions, and also track those transactions.

You could see BIL's gears turning upstairs for the first time. I explained in short, 3-1/2 into 7, World Leader forces a mark. Take it and be doomed to hell -- don't take it and lose your head. Your choice.

While we can only guess the final mark to be used, this technology makes fulfillment possible. I believe the mark will be mandated before everybody takes these chips on a voluntary basis and they have widespread use (ie: like acceptance and widespread use of cellphones). Enough rambling -- we're close! God Bless.

Buying Mark of the Beast stock in the Stock Market????
"The imbedded chip will become the MOB that will be used for economic transaction as well as various security applications. An investment in a product that will pay monetary profit at the expense of the liberties and the souls of men is simply scriptually wrong. We are not to serve God and Money. Yet here there is a desire to profit with money, with a system that we are sure will eventually be forced on all. A system that promises eternal torment for anyone who accepts it.

Ready, Mark, Set
Isaiah 29: 10-12
Isaiah 28: 14-22

 
The Mark is ready;
Can the Beast be far behind?
The warning signs are prominent;
We've forgotten how to read.

The sirens screech;

Our music drowns them out.
We can sleep through anything--

and awaken with digital chips
beneath our skin.

Let the Jeremiahs huff and puff;

Our house will not fall down.
We've made a covenant with death
and moated our castles with lies.
Let the scourge come! We are safe!  

The Mark is ready;
