Click here for a post on the entire chapter of Revelation 13
“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, or they cannot buy or sell. The existence of the mark of the beast depends on the life of the image of the beast to have the breath to speak. The image of the beast is given life/breath to speak by speaking and living through people. By what they are given to say and do they are being groomed to the mark, name, number of the beast. Without the ability of the beast to have breath and being able to speak, the mark of the beast does not exist. If the image of the beast is not served, people are killed, and the mark of the beast is no longer a factor. Receiving the mark of the beast depends on people’s willingness to serve the image of the beast that speaks and lives through them.
Three things happen relating to being able to, or not being able to, buy and sell, 1] Has to have the mark on the right hand or forehead. 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 three 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, as quoted, “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
In light of the above paragraph, 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. That involves being 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, which includes being empowered with uncanny knowledge, heightened intuition, etc. By what a person says and does they are groomed to the mark of the beast within their mind, spirit, and soul. The beast with power over physiology to give people what to speak, 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.
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 is “6-6-6”. 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 is built on and united through the “6-6-6”. Being a number is to describe the beast as an artificial, non-spiritual entity that molds with human physiology by governing through the thoughts, feelings, words, and behaviors of people. Basically, people are becoming more like flesh-and-blood human robots than genuine people living in the Spirit.
With that said, the non-spiritual and artificial nature of the number of the beast corresponds to the age of AI [Artificial Intelligence] and the entire technological age. That includes the digital I.D. and digital currency that nations around the world are beginning to implement. The digital I.D. will enable people to be identified as members of the society of the beast to determine their eligibility for digital currency. If they are not recognize as citizens of the community of the beast then they will not be credited with digital currency. If a person does not have a digital I.D., they would be be considered as not serving the image of the beast, and as a “rebel” against allowing the beast to speak and live through them. That would end up with imprisonment and eventually death, if resistance to the government of the beast continued.
As followers of Jesus Christ, we oppose the atheistic culture of the beast. We believe God our Creator, acknowledge Jesus as the Christ and our Lord, and we welcome the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Even today, the ability to buy and sell is plagued with conflict and difficulty whenever the people of the community are not supportive. If they do not perceive that we are allowing the beast to live and speak through us, then buying and selling becomes plagued with “thorns” and “briers”. That will become more severe as the cashless society comes into full play and the free flow of cash between individuals dwindles to a stop. 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.
When Social Security numbers were issued, people felt that was the number of the beast because no one could work without one. Without work there is no ability to buy and without buying there is nothing to sell. Even then, the social security number by itself, nor a digital I.D. by itself, nor digital currency by itself is able to reach into the heart, soul, and mind of people. With external devices, we are still able to live for God internally through Jesus Christ in the presence of the Holy Spirit. I worked for 44 years with a social security number and shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ for many of those working years. Therefore, with the “number of his name”, comes the “mark of his name” [as described above], and the “name of the beast” [as described in the coming section]. All of that relates to power over physiology to impose on people what to think, feel, say and do in order to silence the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That is something external means cannot do, such as social security numbers, external technological devices, and even microchips of every type.
The digital dollar and digital I.D. are very compatible to the mark of the beast [mentioned in the previous section]and name of the beast [mentioned in next section]. That’s because being a citizen and earning currency depends on loyalty to the global government based on living for the beast that gives them what to speak, do, think, and feel. Digital currency and the digital I.D. allow direct credits to be deposited into a bank account, on a card, or some other device according to the assigned wages of a person’s mark and who they are in the eyes of the governing authority. There is no cash flowing through society whatsoever. Cash becomes illegal contraband. The digital currency is even programmable to control and set limits on buying and selling.
The name of the beast: That is the same as the followers of Jesus Christ who live in His name. It is written, “...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 The beast requires all people on earth to fall down and worship the image of the beast or be killed. The name of the beast will be to globally unite the population under the “mark of his name” and the “number of his name”. This is like the name of Jesus who unites God to every Believer through the Holy Spirit. The name of the beast will be recognized by every person in every city around the world. This name would be similar to the “Global Republic of the Beast”, except the word “Beast” will be excluded and it will be a lamb-like name to flatter the global culture and global government. In other words, instead of each nation singing their own national anthem, they will be singing the global national anthem, to the glory of the name of the beast, in every city around the world. That is how the global culture is united under one “name”.
The name of the beast also corresponds to who we are as individuals, according to how our name aligns to the “6-6-6”. If people perceive that our name is not aligned to the will of the beast, and we are not supportive of the image of the beast speaking and living through us, then our name is disrespected. Those of today’s culture will mispronounce our name, call us by a different name, call us derogatory names, misspell our name, etc. in order to share their disapproval of any name not “belonging” to the beast. Respect, dignity, honor, flattery, kindness, etc. are shown towards the name of people who allow the beast to speak and live through them. They show no respect, dignity, nor honor for anyone who desires the Christ, Jesus, to live and speak through us by the presence of the Holy Spirit.
The system of the beast wants our heart, mind, soul, and all physical needs to be dependent on the government 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 the I.D. stamped upon our heart, and we want to be known as the children of the King of all kings.
Think of the uniform of a football player in the NFL. The name, “NFL” is on the uniform to show who they play for, the number is on the uniform to I.D. the player, and the mark is the uncanny physical abilities and knowledge each player has for their specific position on the team. That is the uniform that the global government wants to put its citizens in who are in every city around the world. That is the uniform of the mark, name, and number of the beast. That is the uniform of the global culture.
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. The digital I.D. and digital currency are already being implemented in countries around the world. And the people are already looking to the United Nations for their identity as a global culture, which is seen through the Sustainable Development Goals. Today, the population of the world are denying God, scoffing at the need for Jesus Christ, and opposing the presence of the Holy Spirit.
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 and grooms them to the mark, name, number of the beast by what they are given to say and do. 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. That is death in many ways, and the psychotic “lamb” is very much active today. .
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]”. 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 mark by which to live, and by what they say and do are groomed to their mark in life, groomed to the mark of the beast. If a person is not living by the mark, name, number of the beast 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 becomes much more severe in the days to come, when the United Nations become the undisputed one world government 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. The ability to buy and sell steeply declines. People of the culture of the beast will shy away from buying anything from us or selling anything to us. That is where we are at today….
Everyone who is groomed to the mark of the beast shares a common trait—they are receptive to its number and name through what they are led to say and do. They do not believe in the living God, they scoff at the need for the forgiveness of sin through Jesus Christ, and they oppress the presence of the Holy Spirit. 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] Even today, Christians have limited ability to buy and sell, mainly because of the inability to succeed at the workplace and to hold a job. That’s because we embrace the values of the Bible in an atheistic culture and we live for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
As long as people are living by the mark of the beast and are receptive to the number and name of the beast, today’s social network shows them love, support, peace, and tolerance. But this 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 government of the beast is destroyed starting with global warming, which is the Fourth Plague. 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, has no impact on us as the temple of the Holy Spirit. That is how we know the mark of the beast is internalized through the image of the beast that speaks and lives through people. By this internalization, people become receptive to the number and name of the beast.
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 to speak by speaking and living through people and by what they are given to say and do they are conformed to the mark of the beast [and therefore receptive to the number and name 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 of the beast by what they are given to say and do. They are receptive to the number and name of the beast. Its source of knowledge far surpasses [and dominates] any technological device, desktop computer, smartphones, televisions, servers, Alexa, Siri, or any other chip device. Such technology is a tool to mandate the mark of the beast [and his number and name] 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 have their existence 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. With the power center of the beast being down and out, the beast will be powerless to conform people to the mark of beast by what they are given to say and do. The number and the name of the beast will be meaningless. 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
“….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
