Re: ITS HERE! Actual TV Commercial...Airs in one m
Quote:
.... Most agree that the idea of the name of the Father on the foreheads of the 144,000 is a symbolic picture of the people of God being identified. Nobody believes there will be a literal mark on the foreheads of these people reading "FATHER" or "JESUS", or whatever! Yet the same people will say that the mark or number of the beast on the forehead or right hand....
The forehead is a metaphor for the WILL of a person (Ezekiel 3:8-9 -- note how you must interpret the metaphor using the Bible itself, rather than search into science magazines of the present day). The right hand is a metaphor for a person's POWER (Exodus 15:6; Luke 22:69). The idea of a computer chip placed beneath the skin is simply not what the Bible is speaking about in Revelation 13. One would not know that, though, if one did not search the Bible for interpretations rather than the science magazines of today's world. People would have you believe that a claim for the use of allegories in the Bible is actually an excuse for spiritualizing away the word of God. Nonsense. It is using the Bible itself to interpret the Bible.

Now, here's some wisdom!
I've believed this for some time and it's encouraging to see it come from someone else.
This "mark" is much more clever and subtle than some electronic chip. Much of mankind is already "infected" by the Beast System which has invaded their thoughts. Religion, which includes some of Christianity, is permeated with this "thinking".
