The Beast Unleashed! (Part 3)

Revelation 13:11-17

"Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 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."


There will be two persons fulfilling these prophecies of Revelation. The first, the beast from the sea, is the man of sin, the son of perdition, commonly called the anti-christ. The second is the beast from the earth who will work with the anti-christ performing great signs while in his presence to deceive the people, commonly called the false prophet.

The beasts who come up from the sea and earth are evil spirits that are loosed as part of God's end times judgments on this earth. These two evil spirits have already entered their host body and are waiting to be unleashed upon humanity. Again, this sounds just like a script from a Hollywood movie, and many will likely say that, but it will be a reality in the very near future, I believe.

Both of these persons will have supernatural abilities to deceive the whole world, and the beast from the earth will tell the people to make an image of the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. This image will be supernaturally brought to life and be able to speak and will force all who will not worship the image of the beast to be killed. And this man-made image of the beast that is brought to life will also force everyone (accept those who are true Christians!) to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead.

Hard to imagine the reality of this happening right? But with technology increasing so fast, with A.I. robots walking and talking, credit cards with chips, tapping, and swiping, and with barcodes being scanned on everything in this world, this prophecy doesn't seem so far fetched now! You can't get used to one form of technology before another one is released!

I found another very interesting article on this subject!

"Another viable method of producing a permanent mark of digital data on a person uses optical patterns made directly on the skin. Since the advent of barcode technology during the 1970s for retail product marking, it has become a strong possibility that humans could be marked with a tattoo that is very similar in design to the Universal Product Code (UPC). The UPC is a form of product or item identification that is a particular subset of the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), and it can be found on every item sold at retail. The UPC has enough digital capacity that it can theoretically mark up to 1 trillion items with a unique code. A similar barcode system, the European Article Number (EAN) is actually a superset of the UPC and it can mark up to 10 trillion items. Therefore, a barcode similar to the UPC or EAN potentially could be used to mark, in addition to every product sold, every human being with their own unique digital number for identification.

Such a system could indelibly ink the barcode directly into the skin of a person using standard tattooing procedures; however, in this case the process would be automated and validated by the state to provide an official number to each citizen, just as similar barcodes provide unique numbers associated with every commercial product. This process of barcoding people might even be done at automobile license facilities using a device that could be placed on the hand or forehead and the pattern quickly tattooed into the skin. To make the procedure sanitary, the tattooing device could incorporate sterile, disposable heads that could be changed after each tattooing process is finished. The procedure could even use invisible or minimally visible dyes that could be read in the near-IR region of the spectrum, thus making the marks cosmetically acceptable even on the forehead.

This type of mark would have elements of the predicted Mark of the Beast as well as the Number of the Beast, because it would be required on the hand or on the forehead. In fact, it would actually be written on and within the hand or forehead as specifically required by the prophecy in Revelation. What is fascinating is that this type of barcode Mark would also incorporate within it the hidden ‘666’ control patterns at the beginning, middle, and end of each UPC or EAN barcode, thus manifesting the Mark of the Beast and the Number of the Beast combined together into one system (see the sections on 666). This is certainly intriguing from a Biblical perspective, but it remains to be seen whether this will become the final Mark as predicted in Revelation.

Not surprisingly, some researchers, governments, and corporations have actually been advocating the marking of people with barcode IDs for quite some time. Elizabeth Moon, a science fiction author, was quoted in the New York Daily News in 2012 as saying,

“I would insist on every individual having a unique ID permanently attached – a barcode if you will – an implanted chip to provide an easy, fast inexpensive way to identify individuals.”

In addition, the first of a series of books for young readers entitled the Bar Code Tattoo, life is described in a society where every individual is forced to receive a barcode on their body by law. The rationale used in the story is that the government wants to simplify everyone’s life by eliminating cards and official identification papers, so no one could lose them or have them stolen. Of course, in the book people who resist the government and don’t get the barcode are ostracized and prohibited from participating in society. Although the Bar Code Tattoo series of books is not about Biblical prophecy, it definitely mirrors what will happen to people who refuse to get the final Mark of the Beast during the reign of the Antichrist. However, it will be much worse for Christians at the end than the main characters in the book, since ultimately many people who don’t accept the Mark will be persecuted and put to death for daring to defy the Empire."

It will truly be a very hard time for Christians during this time, but the Lord will provide for His people! I would rather be waving palm branches in Paradise with the Lord than take the mark and be tormented forever without rest day or night in the lake of fire! Every soul will have a choice to make that will determine their eternal destination!

In Christ,
