Revelation 13:16-17
"He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."While I was at work this week, I was praying and asking the Lord to reveal to me whether the mark would be the implantable RFID chip or some type of barcode. I work at Amazon as a picker and I work with products, scanners, and barcodes all day long, and as I picked up two products to scan while doing my job, I looked at the barcode and I saw the numbers 666 on the barcode! Coincidence? I don't believe so!
Remember John was given a revelation of things to come, so he saw the vision of this mark ON the right hand and ON the foreheads of people. This means that people will have a choice where they receive the mark, I believe that most will take it on their right hand, but there will likely be many who take it on their foreheads. And with a vast amount of men and women tattooed all over their bodies, receiving a lasered or stamped barcode on their hand or forehead will be just another tat!
So just like the barcodes on products, a scanner will be able to scan the barcode on the right hand or the forehead. All the technology the man of sin and the false prophet will use has already been implemented in our daily lives!
Without this mark no one will be able to buy anything or sell anything, which means that Christians will have to be provided for by God Himself! Because as we know the scripture clearly tells us that whoever receives this mark will be thrown in the lake of fire and their torment will last forever and they will have no rest day or night! A terrible judgment awaits those who do not obey the gospel of God!
Revelation 14:9-11
"Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”
Check out this quote:
"The barcode opened the door (in fact, it not only opened it, it kicked the door down) to the "digital world". Everything is now a number. Everything gets a barcode. As someone truly said, "If it exists, bar code it". I remember when barcodes first started appearing. I began telling people back then, the barcode was preparing the world for 666: the Mark of the Beast. Was I ever laughed at. . . even by the Christians. I can still remember their laughing and ridicule, "You mean to tell me, everything is getting one of those "marks". You mean, I'll go even to the local "7-Eleven" and they'll have laser scanners and they'll scan these "marks". No way. It would be too obvious what was happening. Everybody would know the mark of the beast is coming".
But isn't it amazing 25 years later. . . and nobody gives the "mysterious" barcodes even a "second thought". (Is the barcode The Mark of the Beast 666? (av1611.org)

The first product to be scanned with a barcode on it was in 1974, and I don't think it will be very long before the first human being gets scanned with a barcode on the right hand or forehead.
The choice will be yours!
