The mark, name, and number of the beast and the ability to buy and sell.

Revelation 13:16-17

“He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16-17

The “he” in the verse above is the beast who gives breath/life to the image of the beast to speak, and those who do not serve the image that is given breath to speak is to be killed, Revelations 13:15. This beast is the one who causes everyone to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and no one can buy or sell unless they have the name, number, mark of the beast. The existence of the mark, name, and number of the beast depends on the image of the beast having the breath to speak. The image of the beast is given life/breath to speak by speaking and living through people and by what people are given to say and do they are being groomed to the mark, number, and name of the beast. Without the ability of the beast to have breath to speak through people, the mark, name, and number of the beast does not exist. If the image of the beast is not served, people are killed, and the mark, name, and number of the beast are no longer a factor. Receiving the mark, name, number of the beast depends on people’s willingness to welcome the image of the beast to speak and live through them.

Three things happen relating to being able to, or not being able to, buy and sell, 1] Has to have the mark of the beast. 2] Have the name of the beast. 3] Have the number of his name. These three things are what we are already seeing today in cities around the world.

The Mark: What is the mark of the beast? Did you know that God also has His mark that He puts on His people’s forehead? In that light, we should look at the mark of the beast in the same context as the mark of God, regarding whether this is a physical or spiritual marking. Where in the Bible is the mark of God spoken about? In at least four places. For one, “And the Lord said unto him, go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.” Ezekiel 9:4 Click here for a post on Ezekiel 9. God also sets His seal on the foreheads of His people here, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” Revelation 7:3 and also here, “They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads.” Revelation 9:4 Then there is this verse, “Then I looked, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads.” Revelations 14:1. “They will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.” Revelations 22:4

We can be certain that we will never be living in a world where there is a physical mark on a person’s body to signify who they belong to. People who serve the beast will not have physical markings on their body to reveal that, and likewise, people whose faith is in Jesus Christ will not have physical markings on their body to reveal that.

In light of the above paragraphs, we can be certain that the mark of God and the mark of the beast are not a physical marking, but relates to the mind, spirit, and soul. In the Bible, the right hand refers to a powerful position of doing service for a greater power, like being someone’s “right-hand person”. In this light, the mark on the right hand refers to what a person does for the beast. These are people empowered by the beast with extraordinary talents, skills, physical abilities, uncanny authority over others, etc. The mark on the forehead refers to living by the thoughts given by the beast, these are people with uncanny knowledge, heightened intuition, etc. The beast with power over physiology to give people what to say, do, think, and feel gives life to the image of the beast to speak and live through people as they are groomed to the mark of the beast by what they are given to say and do.

As one part of three, no one will be able to sell or buy unless they have the mark of the beast, which means unless a person gives their service and mind to the beast, they will not be able to buy or sell. In other words, unless a person is contributing to the culture of the beast, to the family of the community, they will not be able to buy or sell. As followers of Jesus Christ, we do not welcome the image of the beast to speak and live through us so we will never be conformed to community service within the culture of the beast. We will not deny God, nor Jesus Christ nor the Holy Spirit.

We might wonder about a computer chip being implanted in the human body as part of all of this. When people speak of a computer chip implant, they are envisioning a way that personal information is linked to datacenters to control buying and selling. They envision a chip that is scanned to reveal information relevant to buying and selling. If the mark of the beast is just something for scanning information into a datacenter, a person’s fingerprint would be much better at doing that. Fingerprints hold more information about who we really are than anything else. Today, we are being acclimated to using our fingerprint to login to our cellphones, computers, and other technological devices. The mark of the beast is much more than just a way to scan information into datacenters; it reaches into our head and in what we do. Also, there is the post on the “6-6-6” from Revelations 13:18. Also, there is the post on the human spirit being turned to sand like microchips are made from sand.

The number of his name:  What is the number of the beast’s name? Click here for a post on the number of the beast is the number of a man”. The number of the beast is “6-6-6”, “His number is 666.” Revelations 13:18 Rejecting God is one “6”, rejecting Jesus Christ is the other “6”, and rejecting the Holy Spirit is the third “6”. The government of the beast and its global culture are built on and united through the “6-6-6”. Being a number is to describe the beast as an artificial, non-spiritual entity. Artificial in that there is no compatibility to the human spirit, human emotions, nor to the presence of the Holy Spirit. Basically, people are becoming more like flesh-and-blood human robots than genuine people living in the Spirit. Click here for a post on building the “Tower of Babel” with the untempered mortar of “6-6-6”.

Part two of not being able to buy or sell is because people do not have the number of the beast. Only those who have the number of the beast can buy or sell. In other words, only those who deny God [6], reject the need for Christ Jesus [6], and oppose the presence of the Holy Spirit [6], will be allowed to buy or sell. People who allow the image of the beast to speak and live through them habitually say and do things that oppose God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. As followers of Jesus Christ, we do not say and do things against the Holy Trinity. For that reason, we will not be authorized to purchase and sell from the resources of the culture of the beast.

When Social Security numbers were issued, people felt that was the number of the beast because no one could work without one. That is the information of who we are and as technology becomes more advanced, all of that information is being stored in datacenters. How does that information reach the datacenters? Most likely, our fingerprint will be run through fingerprint scanners. There is nothing more personal and informative than that. Access to digital currency could require a fingerprint scan, meaning a scan of our fingerprint every time we desire to make a purchase. Even today, there is a call for every newborn baby to be fingerprinted, and for decades the footprints of newborns have been placed in records. They do that in the name of security or abduction prevention. As mentioned in the previous section on the “The Mark“, the mark of the beast is much more than just a way to scan information into a datacenter.

Even today, the ability to buy and sell is plagued with conflict and difficulty whenever the people of the community are not supportive. That comes solely by the beast that gives breath/life to the image of the beast to speak by speaking and living through people. We are seeing the groundwork being laid for preventing the followers of Jesus Christ from buying and selling as part of a war against “enemies of humanity”. Robotic inventory control, which is fed into datacenters, will work in harmony with digital currency, also programmed into the datacenters. Click here for a post on robotic inventory control at Kroger’s grocery store, which will link to datacenters, with digital currency also linked to datacenters.

The “cashless society” is waiting and ready to be operational. In the United States, the framework for the digital currency has been passed into law and is called the “GENIUS Act” The president has aspirations of making the United States the “crypto capital of the world”. Click here to read a post on the GENIUS Act. Cash will become illegal contraband.

The name of the beast: Part three of not being able to buy and sell involves the name of the beast. No one will be able to buy or sell unless they have the number of his name. What is the number of his name? We know that number is “6-6-6” and because it relates to each individual person not being able to buy and sell unless they have it, it relates to our name in the beast. In other words, if our name is associated in any way with the Holy Spirit who glorifies God and uplifts the name of Jesus Christ, then we will not be recognized as having the number of the name of the beast. Requiring people to have the name of the beast can be understood by realizing God expects all people to bow at the name of Jesus, “...that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth…” Philippians 2:10 As followers of Jesus Christ, we have the name of Jesus through the Holy Spirit.

The number of the name of the beast will be to globally unite the population of the global culture. This is like the name of Jesus who unites God to every Believer through the Holy Spirit. Satan intends to copy everything that God has done through Jesus Christ, including making the number of the name of his beast a requirement to buy and sell. However, only through the name of Jesus is there Salvation, “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

A person’s name is required to align with the number of the name of the beast that sets in the temple of God, our body. If our name is off the mark, then people will mispronounce it, mock it, call us a derogatory name, not feel right about us, not show respect or honor towards us, will not interact with us in a welcoming way, avoid saying the name, call us a different name, etc. In other words, if our name isn’t aligned right by the “6-6-6” then it reveals we are not a member of the culture of the beast. For example, when the name of Jesus Christ is said with reverence and respect [in the presence of the Holy Spirt] His name is detested by those living for the beast that gives them what to say, do, feel, and think. “Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 12:3

---

The mark of the beast, the name of the beast, and the number of the beast’s name all work in unison. They work in unison through the image of the beast that is given breath/life to speak by speaking and living through people. By what people are given to say and do they are conformed to the mark, name, and number of the beast. They speak words and do things that are against belief in God [6], against Jesus Christ [6], and against the presence of the Holy Spirit [6]. In that way, their name is conformed to the “6-6-6” and people respect who they are as their name is mentioned. In that conformity, people are placed into community service according to the “mark” within their thoughts and behaviors. They are placed into service to the beast by what they are given to say and do. “Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.” James 3:4-5

“…no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:17

Think of the uniform of a football player in the NFL, or any competitive sport. The number is on the uniform, the name is on the uniform, and each player has the mark [or position] that they are assigned to according to the physical abilities and knowledge they are endowed with. That is the uniform that the global government wants to put its citizens in who are in every city around the world. They want the global culture to be dressed in the uniform that has the number, name, mark of the beast.

The world system of the beast wants our heart, mind, soul…and wants all physical needs to be dependent on the government of the beast. That is the purpose of not allowing anyone to buy or sell unless they have the number, name, mark of the beast. As followers of Jesus Christ, we dedicate our heart, mind and soul to God through Jesus Christ in the presence of the Holy Spirit. We want the image of Jesus Christ to speak and live through us, we want the Holy Spirit to be stamped upon our heart, and we want to be known as the children of the King of all kings.

Today, people in every city around the world are living by the beast that is given breath/life to speak by speaking and living through them, “All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” Revelations 13:8 People are already looking to the United Nations for their identity as a global culture, which is seen through how the global population embraces the Sustainable Development Goals. Today, nations pledge allegiance to the flag of their nation, but under the one world government there will be one “flag” that people pledge their allegiance to, the “flag” of the global government of the beast. The United Nations was formed in 1945, immediately after World War 2, and brought the government of the beast with it, as described in Daniel 8:1-14 and also Revelations 17.

Even today, people who refuse to welcome the beast to speak and live through them are given negative feedback from the social network. Positive feedback is given for those who are receptive to the agenda for the mark, number, and name of the beast. Behavior modification is being used to mandate living by the beast that speaks and lives through people as they are given what to say, do, think, and feel. Behavior modification is to give positive vibes for wanted behaviors and negative vibes for unwanted. To be cut off from social approval is to be cut off from adequate work, functional relationships, social interactions, etc. This is literally slow death.

By what people are given to say and do, they are also being groomed to their station in life, to their place of service to the community. Not everyone is empowered with the same uncanny knowledge and extraordinary skills as another person. People are given what to say, do, think, and feel to empower them for a specific task in life “for the good of all within the community of the beast”. If a person tries to deviate or break from the mark, or name, or number of the beast, then they do not have the needed skills and knowledge to succeed in life. They become rebels, outcasts, difficult to manage, and even troublemakers to today’s culture. Needless to say, the ability to buy and sell steeply declines. People of the culture of the beast will shy away from buying anything from “rebels” or selling anything to them. That is where we are at today….

Not everyone is empowered the same as government leaders and even government leaders do not have the ability to be a successful janitor. Some janitors have an extraordinary talent for their job with uncanny knowledge and intuition about their work. They excel in what they do with plenty of social approval. Each person has a specific position in the community by which to live, and by what they say and do are groomed to their station in life. They are groomed to the number, name, mark of the beast. If a person is not living by their designated position, then they will find it difficult to find adequate, productive, and successful employment. They will be considered “non-compliant” to the community purpose and be met with hostile social disapproval, affecting their ability to buy and sell. That is where we are at today but progresses to become much more severe in the days to come, when the United Nations become the undisputed one world government of the beast.

Even newborn babies, young children, and life in the womb are under the influence of the beast that controls their sounds, movements, emotions, and thoughtful looks. Already, they are being groomed to speak and do according to what they will become in the function of today’s culture. Jesus says, “It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.” Luke 17:2

Everyone who is groomed to the name, number, mark of the beast shares a common trait—They do not believe in the living God [6], they scoff at the need for the forgiveness of unbelief through Jesus Christ [6], and they oppress the presence of the Holy Spirit [6]. From this, we see why the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is being prohibited in every sector of society. That is why the followers of Jesus Christ do not excel at the workplace, and why Christianity is being killed and put into extinction [as described in Revelations 12] 

As long as people are living by the name, number, mark of the beast, today’s social network shows them love, support, peace, and tolerance. But that is far from the love, support, peace, grace, and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of the Holy Spirit. Christians are despised for believing this verse, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

The mark, number, and name of the beast is not a computer chip implanted in the hand or in the forehead. The fate of the global government of the beast and its global culture is not going to be placed in the hands of microchip manufacturers. Destroying the global government of the beast is not as easy as sabotaging microchip factories. The power center of the beast is destroyed in the Fifth Plague of Revelations 16:10-11, starting with global warming, which is the Fourth Plague of Revelations 16:8-9. The end of this world’s system comes by the wrath of God and the return of Jesus Christ. Any external device or marks, such as microchips, have no impact on us as the temple of the Holy Spirit. That is how we know the mark, number, name of the beast is internalized through the image of the beast that speaks and lives through people. By this internalization, people are groomed to the number, mark, name of the beast. As our Lord Jesus says, “It is written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’” Matthew 21:13 We are the house of God, “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” 1 Corinthians 3:16

The battle is for the soul and there are no physical devices (like computer chips) which can alter our devotion to God through Jesus Christ. The beast wants to sit in the temple of God, our body, by forming what we say, do, feel, and think, [2 Thessalonians 2:4]. The image of the beast is given life/breath by speaking and living through people and by what they are given to say and do they are conformed to the mark, name, number of the beast. By choosing to live for it, people deny God. We are to devote our body as the temple of the Holy Spirit, nothing else.

The beast has power over physiology and has an extraordinary bank of knowledge, intelligence, intuition, and bits of information. This power causes people to live by the mark, name, number of the beast by what they are given to say and do. Its source of knowledge far surpasses [and dominates] any technological device, desktop computer, server, Alexa, Siri, television [which are in every home around the world], or any other chip device. Such technology is a tool to mandate the mark, name, number of the beast to every single person in every city around the world. Such technology is part of the programming of each person of the global population, to conform them to the designation of the mark, number, and name of the beast.

Any informational chip implanted on the body would be substandard to the beast currently working in this world through physiology. Additionally, hackers would have a field day hacking into the implanted chip to cause havoc to the system of the global government of the beast. Everyone knows that this present system, with power over physiology to form what people say and do, doesn’t seem to be vulnerable to hacking and power outages, so the masses of people around the world are definitely not going to be downgraded to a computer chip. Click here to read what Ezekiel says about space technology and satellites. Also, people would be digging a chip out of their body or finding ways to have it surgically removed at home. The mark of the beast is not something internally physical that can be tampered with.

Global warming plays a role in destroying the power center of the beast. The intensity of global warming is the Fourth Plague and the failure of the power center of the beast is the Fifth Plague. The more powerful the United Nations become as the one world government the hotter and more intense the effects of global warming becomes. With the power center of the beast being down and out, the beast will be powerless to conform people to the mark, name, and number of the beast by what they are given to say and do. In the powerlessness of the government of the beast, masses of people around the world will be out for revenge against the government they once served. That leads to the Battle of Armageddon, which is the Sixth Plague.

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire. They were seared by the intense heat, and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent and glorify him.

The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in agony and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they refused to repent of what they had done.” Revelation 16:8-11

Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared….to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty…And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.” Revelations 16:12, 14, 16

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:1
