I understand the mark of the beast to be from the last empire in Daniel2..........

Babylon (not global as we understand global yet described as all the world).
Medo Persia (not global as we understand global)
Greece (not global as we understand global)
Rome (not global as we understand global)

and then who replace Rome over the middle-east and is now reviving (remember John said.......one is and one is not yet<said in the time of Rome)

Islam

and islam is reviving to fulfil its role until His Kingdom comes on earth as it is in the heavens.

Whatever the mark of the beast is 1/ not global but middle-eastern, 2/ linked with Islam who replace Rome as the power of the land of Israel.

Blessings

Daniel2: There are 5 kingdoms not 4.


(1) This image's head [was] of fine gold.

(2) his breast and his arms of silver.

(3) his belly and his thighs of brass.

(4) His legs of iron, 40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron:

(5) his feet part of iron and part of clay. 41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided 42 And [as] the toes of the feet [were] part of iron, and part of clay, [so] the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.


and islam is reviving to fulfil its role until His Kingdom comes on earth as it is in the heavens.

What Bible verse is that?


.

Whatever the mark of the beast is 1/ not global but middle-eastern,
It sounds global to me And he causeth all”

Rv13:16 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:

17 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.

RFID chip barcodes etc. Every barcode in the world has 666 hard wired in. How can you not consider the idea that a chip is gonna be the mark. They are already chipping people everywhere and churches like the 7th day adventist's are even endorseing the vchip or human RFID chip. Scary stuff. Every barcode has 3 guard codes wgich is a 6 so every barcode has a three guard barcode 666

The mark of the beast is about worship not microchips. Those whn worship the beast receive a mark those who worship God will receive the seal of God. There is a counterfiet system of worship that looks like the true but is not.

666/vv is a clue, to be part of the world they propose you may for "security" reasons need to pledge an allegiance and receive something maybe a mark to be "allowed" to be part of a "new world order" "peace and stability".... (remember "religion" will be blamed for the worlds problems)

1But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

It’s also about buying and selling don’t you think.

It’s not just about bowing to the image of the beast and worshiping the image of the beast.

But there are 3 other verses about buying and selling.

Got to try and keep it in perspective

Rv13:16And 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

17And 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.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Very Interesting discussion. I really have not devoted a lot of this study to this subject. There are Several Scenarios
that could happen
I just elect not to get involved in this, but bless all those who do. All I know is the following....666 is The Devils Number, and 777 is God' s Perfect Number. 666 also can be Power and Wealth. A " Beast" is not a Monster, and likely a Head of a Nation. One last thing I he learned is that the Mark this " Beast " will issue only applies if taken on Your RIGHT HAND or FOREHEAD. YES, it could be a Bar Code, or invisible magnetic strip on the back of credit card, etc.

Worship is mentioned 8 times in Revelation 13 & 14
Revelation 13:4
(4) And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
Revelation 13:8
(8) And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Revelation 13:12
(12) And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Revelation 13:15
(15) And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Revelation 14:7
(7) Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Revelation 14:9
(9) 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,
Revelation 14:11
(11) And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever 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.

Do you think God is trying to tell us something?

unless you care nothing about Hermenuetics the bible clearly states that without this mark you will not be able to buy or sell, (buy or sell in the spirit?) no this is literal verbage.....but please note Its highly likely all transactions will move into micro-chip technology long before the antichrist rises to power, Its more likely that a special mark in line with this technology will be implimented to show who his loyal followers are

also from scripture this great anti-christ figure does not rule the whole world, read Daniel 11 and take notice there are areas that ESCAPE his clutches

I think that the meaning of the mark is obvious; it is what people do and how they think. Most of the book of Revelations is symbolic, so we needn't assume that the mark is physical. Even if it is, it wouldn't necessarily be a microchip, unless one needed to go through a satanic initiation to receive the chip. If it were a physical mark, it could be anything.

I think that the mark on the forehead symbolizes how people think, the word of God in there minds (or the lack of it). The mark on the hand symbolizes how people act. There was a similar mark in Ezekiel 9. God's servants put it on the foreheads of people who lamented the sin that was happening.

Historicists generally interpret 666 as refer to Lateinos, or the Latinization of everything in the church (Latin prayers, and so on), and the mark is worshippng in Latin. Some also think that it refers to the practice of marking slaves with the owner's name or symbol. They interpret the prohibitions against buying and selling as the occasional papal restrictions on buying and selling with 'heretics'.

Many preterists interpret 666 as referring to Nero, and think that the restrictions on buying and selling were those that happened in the Roman Empire against buying and selling with Christians.

Some futurists think that the mark is a computer chip, but even some futurists interpret it symbolically.

Spiritualist interprets of Revelations think that 666 refers generally to man's fallen nature, and that the mark is a symbolic spiritual mark of those who act and think like the world.

In conclusion, some futurists think that the mark is a microchip or something physical, but that is far from certain. Personally, I'll probably be among the first in line to get such a chip. Actually, on second thought, I'll probably wait until they've worked out the bugs.

(4) His legs of iron, 40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron:

What Bible verse is that?



It sounds global to me And he causeth all”

Rv13:16 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:

17 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.

what your missing is they are all CONNECTED! the statue is a representation of the body of Satan, Christians are all a representation of the body of Christ, we are without borders and nationalities, we are of all races. The book of Revelations shows these beast are all joined togather into one conglamoration, (see Revelations 13) "now the beast which I saw was like a LEOPARD his feet were like the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth like the mouth of a LION".............this is the same terrible beast mentioned in Daniel 7, each animal becomes a part of this one giant kingdom, its impossible to be the manmade human empires, because they are all destroyed at the SAME TIME (see Daniel 2:35)

These are not foot notes. There are two different parts to these verses worship and a mark not just worship.

what are you saying ? that there is no mark? And that it has nothing to do with buying and selling.

What better way to get you to bow to his image and worship him than to threaten you with economical poverty and your right to eat and pay your bills, even some Christians would think twice if they were threatened with extreme poverty .

Yes I do think God is trying to tell us something

Before the head of gold Empire Babylon in Daniels day was Assyria in bible history, and before that was Egypt in bible history. That makes 7 kingdoms altogether.

Conformed by john when he says

Rv17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, [and] the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

Those who do not worship the beast or the image will not be able to buy or sell while those who worship the beast will receive the mark of the beast.

I know that many see the book of revelations a sybolic only.
Some say this about many writtings in the scriptures.
But from what I have read through out the Bible, is that the scriptures are both symbolic and literal.
I will trust all to God and His understanding given, for one can trust that when needed, God will keep us always in His care.

God bless
