For those who hold an interest in " END TIMES" (eschatology),
much speculation and interest has been devoted to...."THE MARK"
what it is, how it will be enforced, where it will be placed etc....
the real concern should be, understanding just WHO authorizes the mark to be created in the first place & WHY!!!!!
READ CAREFULLY the passages below..........GOD HIMSELF BRINGS THE DECEPTION AND GIVES THE BEAST THE POWER AND OR AUTHORITY... TO CARRY IT OUT.....NOW READ CAREFULLY, ON WHO & WHY!!!!
[Rev 13:16-17 NASB95] 16 And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, 17 and [he provides] that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, [either] the name of the beast or the number of his name.
[2Thessalonians 2:9-12 ] 9 [that is,] the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, WITH ALL POWER AND SIGNS AND FALSE WONDERS 10 and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, BECAUSE they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved. 11 For this reason GOD WILL SEND UPON THEM them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, 12 in order that they ALL MAY BE JUDGED who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness.
[Rev 17:13, 17 NASB95] 13 "These have one purpose, and they give their power and authority to the beast. ... 17 "For GOD HAS PUT IT IN THEIR HEARTS TO EXECUTE """"""HIS""""""" PURPOSE by having a common purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God will be fulfilled.
