Part 2 – 666: Mark Of The Beast

Equipping God's Saints (Believers of Christ) through the Prophecies of the End Times …

You have got to understand this whole program was conceived in Hell by Satan, himself. His desire is to cause all of us to worship him because he hates God. He hates the fact that the human race is God's prized creation. He wants you and me and everybody in the world to worship him through the Antichrist.

When the Bible says that the False Prophet will influence the entire world to worship the Antichrist. That really will result in the entire world worshiping Satan. That's what Satan wants. He does not want us to worship our Creator, the one, true God. He wants us to worship Satan.

The scriptures tell us when you take the mark of the beast ~ and it tells us here that if you don't, you will actually be killed. This is a dramatic, drastic scripture. But the Bible says whosoever refuses to worship will be killed. How could that happen in modern society?

Wind the clock back about 100 years. Go to the times of Joseph Stalin. Go to the times of Mao Tse Tung. Joseph Stalin slaughtered at least 20 million people because they would not conform to his regime politically and spiritually. They tell us from 1949, when the communists took over Mainland China, until right now, there have been 60 million killed over the last 50 years. I'm talking about in recent times here. I'm talking about within the last 100 years. And we know what happened with Adolph Hitler. Six million Jews, a total of about 11 million slaughtered, not counting the fatalities that were committed in World War II.

For us to think it couldn't happen now, that's folly. We have records of incidences like this from the beginning of time until now. You can talk about the Spanish Inquisition, the Crusades, or more recently, the Soviet Union, Communist China, Nazi Germany.

I hate to tell you this … It's getting ready to happen again. The Bible says this coming persecution will be the worst persecution, ever. It will be a tribulation such as never has been before or ever again shall be. I wish it were not true, but it's going to happen.

It's absolutely certain to happen. We can stick our head in the sand and act like it's not going to happen, but it is going to happen. It's in YOUR Bible. It's in MY Bible. It's Prophecy. The prophecies always come to pass, so it's absolutely critical to you and to me that we really take this to heart.

Let's look at the rest of the passage in Revelation 13. In Revelation 13:16-17 it says:

“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:

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.”

Notice it says 3 things here:

1. The Mark
2. The Name of the Beast
3. The Number of his name

Remember those things because the Bible says that's what you're going to have to accept in order to be able to buy or sell ~ To participate in the economy.

If you do not take the mark, you will be boycotted, economically. That means they are going to force you out of commerce. You won't be able to go to the store. You won't be able to provide for your family. You are going to be put off limits because by this time diversity will no longer be tolerated. They are going to insist that everyone comes to conformity. We see this happening already.

In Germany, right now, it's against the law to home school your children. They explain, “We don't want a parallel society. We want everybody thinking alike. We want everyone to have the same values. We want everyone to have the same culture.

It's already starting all over again, and that's not just Germany. There are other places in Europe right now that are starting to outlaw home schooling because they want you to think like the state wants you to think. That's what's going to move all the way through Europe. Europe is going to be the power base of the Antichrist. The world community already is using sanctions to force obedience.

Sometimes when we read these prophecies we think, “Wait a minute. It could never happen.”

But the fact is, it is happening right now. The United Nations, right now … Any nation that does not comply with the edicts of the UN Security Council, they will pass sanctions against them. It was Iraq first of all with Saddam Hussein.

More recently, we've passed several levels of sanctions against Iran. You're very aware of that. It's in our news all the time right now.

However, this prophecy not only applies to sanctions on a national level, we're talking about a prophecy that says sanctions on an individual level will soon be levied against people. You know as well as I do that it's never been possible for sanctions to be placed against us on an individual level ~ at least until now.

Now the technology does exist so that they could put you off limits. We don't have a total cashless society yet, but there are actually laws in place that force you to have an approved national ID card or else you can't hold a job. If you can't hold a job, how can you buy or sell? You can't make any money.

Already, we see the laws are moving toward this 2000 year old prophecy, which could never be fulfilled prior to now. It can be fulfilled right now with the emergence of modern technology. You know as well as I do that you could buy almost anything if you have a valid credit card with a valid number. You can pick up the phone and buy things from Hong Kong, from Singapore, from all over the world. But if you don't have that number, you're out of business in the land of interstate and international commerce.
