thanks Ahwatukee will definitely check that out thanks very much
You are very welcome! And God bless for believing in his word regarding this issue because there are many who don't see it. So be thankful, because it is God who allows us to recognize these prophesies. God made me aware of the mark from the first time I read about it in his word. The prophesy regarding the mark of beast has always been sort of a beacon for me in regards to us being in the end times.
Not long after, the first ATM machines came out and I knew that this technology was relevant to the mark. Then came the Universal product codes (UPC), followed by the Point of Sale (POS) system, which allows everyone to make purchases by electronic crediting and debiting, which is buying and selling. Now, we have all manner of devices which allows people to pay their bills such as with their iPhones and computers and other devices. Now through applications and hardware, individuals are able to credit and debit each others bank accounts. Chase banks have "The Square" which is a device that plugs right into the top of the iPhone. As an example, say a next door neighbor's kid breaks his neighbors window. The person whose window was broken can get his iPhone and take his neighbor's debit card and swipe it through the Chase Square and the cost of the window will be debited from his neighbor's bank account and credited to the one with broken window's bank account.
"Except anyone had the mark he would not be able to buy or sell."
Where the scripture states that "He forces all to receive a mark in his right hand or forehead" I believe that the way that this is going to happen is not by physical force, but by the beast/false prophet making cash, checks, credit and debit obsolete, leaving only that personal sub-dermal device (the mark) to be able to perform electronic crediting and debiting to a persons bank account. A good example of this would be, for people who currently only use electronic crediting and debiting via their cards, then if cash and checks were made obsolete, then one could only perform crediting and debiting if they had cards, because cash and checks would be made obsolete and that is how I believe the mark is going to work. The evidence is already here today, as the system is continually pushing to get people off of invoice remittance and to pay their bills via electronic payment, via iPhone or some other device or to have it automatically electronically deducted from their bank account. I see this push every time I get my invoices, for on the envelope it will say, "let's this be your last stamp. Make payments online" Or I see "Sava a tree! Pay on line." This is in preparation to make cash, checks and eventually cards obsolete. That will happen when that antichrist/beast is revealed.
This mark will continue to evolve and gain popularity and usage in preparation for that coming antichrist, as well as the continuing process of making cash and checks obsolete. We are truly living in the very last days. Therefore, let us be like the five bridesmaids who have extra jars of oil, the oil of watchful readiness, waiting for the Bridegroom's announcement so that we can immediately enter in when call goes out.
