We are going to see a creature created during the Tribulation Period that will be able to scan those who have accepted the mark of the beast and those that do not and will dispense judgment accordingly. He will given life of some sort kind of like all the advance special effects we have now that it possible for us to believe something is real when its not. Imagine what will be possible in the last days that will get our attention and make us believe in it.
The deception of the False Prophet will be undeniable.
Revelation 13:14 ~ "and by the sings that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived."
We see the term "those who dwell on the earth," and in the Greek is simply means earth dwellers. They live for this world. As believers, we know this world is not our home and we are just merely passing through. People of the world are hanging on to everything about it. The people of the world will believe their eyes! To make an image, statues have always been created by man to commemorate or to honor events or heroes in history. Statues, idols, images and icons are an abomination to God.
The deception of the False Prophet will be inescapable.
Revelation 13:15 ~ "And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain."
The word in this verse for breath, is not the Greek Word zo-ea, like God gives. The Greek word here is pneuma or pneumatic, meaning not actual life but virtual life, superhuman.
High tech! We can track the movement of a human being through satellite technology. We can now wee a match strike from 180 miles out in space. An image, a statue of idolatry. This is a high tech, virtual reality idol. This age of technology has been born in our life time the mating between computer technology. It will detect those who have the mark or not, somehow, and those without the mark will be put to death. Beheaded according to the Bible.
Revelation 20:4b ~ "Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the Word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They can to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years."
All in the name of a pagan god, these things will happen. Who will encourage these religious murders? Who will authorize this religious cleansing ? The False Prophet.
The domain of the False Prophet (2nd beast) will be universal. His domain = his realm, his influence and its global with global technology.
Revelation 13:16 ~ "Also it cause all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,"
You will have an option. Forehead or right hand. If you don't believe this kind of technology is available today and that they are not using it right now, look up two companies ADSX,
Applied Digital Solutions Inc and
Digital Angel. 10,000 US troops have agreed to have this chip embeded into their right hand so they can be tracked wherever they go, they can monitor their heart rate and other vitals and would be amazing in the event of capture. We would know right where they are being held.
This technology will be used to help close the borders, to eliminate international terrorism because what terrorist will want this embed in them so that everything they do can be tracked. No more lost immigrants whose visas have expired. We know where they are at all times. This technology will dry up terrorism and you can't get it without the mark. It is no longer valid for me to say that I am me. We know have numbers that verify our identities over our voice that claims who we are. We have driver's license numbers, social security numbers, passport numbers, numbers for insurance, you name it. What if we just had one all purpose one and we wouldn't even have to remember what those numbers were.
To receive the mark, we look at the word 'mark' in the Greek and it is charagma, an etching, embossing, a stamp or engraved mark.
This is not the first time this has been used. Back in Ancient Roman times, citizens were marked in order to buy and sell within Rome. Without it you couldn't and resisting it was the same as not saying Caesar in not Lord. All Roman citizens were required to say Caesar is Lord otherwise suffer the consequences as an enemy of Rome. Those who refused went to prison, beaten, and fed to the lions.
When the world implements this it will be based on a security driven issue. It is already being used in credit cards, our veterinarians to track pets and their medical information, so when you see a lost pet, you can take it to any vet and hopefully find the owner. We won't need a bunch of numbers any more just one in the end times. Instead of all the numbers we have now. All those in the military opted to receive theirs in their right hand. This number you will be assigned with be unique to you as well as your standing in the global community as one who can buy and sell. Your alliance won't be challenged because you can only receive the mark by accepting the message and doing it willingly. We know in part the number will contain a prefix of 666 according to the Bible. How that plays out, the Bible isn't clear but we can see how it could be used.
We are already use to a cashless society and are moving there more and more each day with bio metrics being introduced as well such as theme park passes require this technology and no one really questions it or what they do with the information they have collected. We are seeing data breaches happening all the time and they will need to find a way to ensure these types of events stop happening. Most people don't like using cash over their credit cards because of the incentives the credit card companies offer them like cash back, rewards, or even mileage programs for free trips or other perks.
Let's take a look at the way numbers are used in the Bible today. Here are some meanings of the numbers in the Bible.
3 is the number of God or the trinity in totality
4 is the number of creation
5 is the number of grace
6 is the number of man
7 is the number of God's perfection or Spiritual perfection
8 is the number of New Beginnings
9 is the number of judgment
10 is the number of divine or God rule
12 is the number of perfect government
40 is the number of judgment or probation
666 is the number of man, considering himself to be godlike or divine.
Look up
George J Laurer's website. He is the creator of the UPC code or bar code. On his website he answers a lot of questions and you might want to check out number 6. The PC or product codes are on all products and truly don't really mean anything. There are just there as a way of tracking the product from point of origin to where it is bought and who bought it. If you look at the first two thin lines and the last two thin lines as well as two thin lines in the middle, they are the number 6. So in a sense the number 666 is there and it doesn't mean anything by it but it does beg the question, why the number 6 over any other number to be used?
Why do they even have that in there at all?
In the Hebrew language the letter W is 6 in regards to its numerical value. Yet when you visit the World Wide Web, the prefix before the address local is numerically 666. Again, it doesn't mean anything but it begs the question, why this number and not any other. Are we slowly being trained for a time when it simply won't matter what numbers are what and how they are used. For now both of these devices have the ability to track and locate information. Just some interesting things to consider.
It was be economical to use this system.
Revelation 13:17 ~ "So that non one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name."
It will abolish fraud and it eliminates counterfeiting. It will unify the world and world security.
The domain of the False Prophet will be diabolical.
Revelation 13:18 ~ "This calls for wisdom; let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man and his number is 666."
6 is the number for man
3 is the truine Godhead
666 is man, declaring himself to be god.
In Biblical numerology 777 is the number of the Perfect God. 6 is man, 66, is man governing, and 666 is man claiming to be divinity.
So how will this work? When will it happen?
Deuteronomy 29:29 ~ "The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law."
You have to be willing to accept this mark when the time comes and it's message to get it. You can't be tricked or held down against your will. Until that time, however keep looking up!

So powerful and a good reminder of what is to come. I've always thought that the popularity of tattoos will make the mark of the beast an easy transition. It will be no big deal to many and I very big deal to us who believe.
Praying for grace and mercy in those days and in today.
Blessings,
