I can't help but see these things in scripture.The one where Jesus is on the cross is so amazing,and probably one of the best ones God has revealed to me,and it reveals just how much in control he really is.I 'see' the Ark of the Covenant at the cross.The cherubim,the crowns of gold round about.The offering,and the Spirit of the Lord.

Why is it that it's like our bodies have a story to tell?Because it's within our DNA as well! so of course we can 'see' it make up our whole being.Man,what a revelation!Glory to God!
I'm really happy to share these things with the Church.Our DNA is liken to a scroll within a clay pot.
I see

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.









What you write is true. Satan will be tossed out of heaven to earth to deceive the people into worshipping him as God. Many have not been told that Satan will come first, before Jesus, claiming to be God. So when he comes performing great signs and wonders, they will bow down to him not knowing he is the fake. They receive the mark of his deception in their foreheads (brains) because they think he is God. They receive his mark in their hands which is symbolic of working for his fake ministry. God's elect will stand against Satan and witness against him to expose his lies.

The mark is related to worship, Satan has always wanted to be worshipped as a god.
Those who have been deceived will in some way worship Satan with eternal consequences:
[Rev 14:9 KJV] 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,
Rev 14:10 KJV] 10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

In contrast, to those who worship God:
[Rev 14:7 KJV] 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.

[Exo 34:14 KJV] 14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name [is] Jealous, [is] a jealous God:
True worship vs. false worship.

As Jesus said,
[Mat 7:21-23 KJV] 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Amen

what do we really worship ? What do we really spend our lives imagining thinking about hoping for in our mind and doing with our hands ?

the mark is in forehead and in the right hand.

i think your right and then it begs the question what really is true worship ?

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.”
‭‭John‬ ‭4:24-26‬ ‭

worship him in spirit and in truth.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
‭‭John‬ ‭6:63‬ ‭

and in truth.

“…Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.”
‭‭John‬ ‭18:37‬ ‭
