The mark of the beast - who will be most susceptible?

[Godbehonored]

I have seen many theories on what the mark of the beast is. Some say it’s a chip implanted, some say it’s not keeping the sabbath and disobedience to God’s Ten Commandments, some say it’s a form of payment method.

My conclusion is that regardless of what form the mark takes, the following groups of people (including those who profess Christ) are most susceptible to taking it:

1) Those who are living in active rebellion against God from their habitual sins, hidden or explicit. They can be outwardly churchgoers and Bible readers.
2) Those who are so used to the comforts of their current life that they will compromise to continue enjoying those comforts.
3) Those who don’t know God and believe deeply in human advancement and survival of the fittest.

In other words non-Christians and professing Christians who aren’t obeying the words of Jesus and are not willing to lose everything for the faith are most susceptible to truly accepting the mark of the beast. Their hearts are tied deeply to whatever they have in this world and they value their current life above everything else. Hence it does not matter what faith is professed, how much warnings are given or how vigilant we are looking out for what the mark is. The mark of the beast will be accepted to avoid personal losses.

The focal point should be figuring out whether you are ready to lose everything for Christ. Only then will you be ready to recognise and reject the mark. Are you ready?

The mark of the beast is talked about in Revelation 13 : It's number is 666. The preceeding verses starting in vs 11 -- that passage talks about no one being able to buy or sell without having that 666 on their forehead or back of their hand.

Then in chapter 14 : 9 - 10. tells what will happen to those who Do accept the mark / worships the beast. It Won't be 'pretty'. Those verses say it will be pretty bad.

Sue is correct it is a mark that one must take in order to transact business. If anyone has been following the world then they would know that we will eventually end up in a crypto-currency
world, no cash, this way the government can follow each and every transaction and get the tax on it.
Add to that the fact that it is the second beast with 2 horns that causes the people to take the mark. That 2 horned beast is Tech and Media. 2 horns of power. It should have been made clear
that Tech and Media did the bidding of one side of the election process during the US election this last cycle, they are doing the same world wide.

Bible states that the deception around this will be so great that even the VERY ELECT would be deceived if possible.

So to answer your question it is the non elect who take it.

Sue, are you saying that the mark is a "666" on the hand or forehead?

There is a company called SOMARK that has been tattooing livestock since 2008 with an RFID scannable Tattoo with invisible ink. They are able to put just about anything in the tattoo
that a person could want including a bar code that scans every time the livestock are dewormed, receive antibiotics, vaccinations, etc... so that the animals complete history from birth to death
will be recorded as far as what may affect the quality of the animal at slaughter etc..
They can do the tattoo process in under 10 seconds.
If they were to do the same to humans it simply would be filled with your specific number like a SSN, or whatever they use in other countries, to identify you as you so that you may access your
digital wallet.
There is a beginning to this kind of thing in that systems are using thumbprints at checkout to activate your card that your going to use. After activation it only stays active for a set amount
of time usually 15-30 minutes.
This way no one can use your card unless it's within that space of time.
The number 666 is the number name of the coming anti Christ. That is to say the letters in his name when assigned their numerical value will add up to 666. Nero was an example.
Rev 13:17 tells us that without "The mark, or the name, or the NUMBER of the name of the beast, no man can buy or sell. SO yes it is a possibility that a 666 will be present in your digitized,
invisible tattoo that can be read with an RFID scanner.
I imagine that some will opt to not get invisible ink and will sport their MARK as proudly as any other tattoo.

You should google the ANGEL number 666 and see all the positive things that pop up surrounding that number today. You'll have to go to page 2 to see anything antichrist related to the #.
Strange how things change in such a short time, as this would not have been the case just a few years back.

the only way to have discernment and not be blind to the deception of the world is to obey the word of God, to live righteously.

people will be lining up eager to take the mark to get on with life, IMO even people who claim they are christians, yet there life shows no fruit

2 Corinthians 4:4
In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

This is true sir...The great apostasy will not occurr among unbelievers, but so called Christians
