Is This the Mark of the Beast?

Brother Burk worked with Brother Irvin Baxter Jr on Endtime magazine.
Here is an article about the RFID chip.

Look for yourself! I demonstrated it beyond just saying it.

I would take a chip.

To me, right hand in the Bible signifies power and the forehead would have to do with the mind. Power over a person and controlling of the mind. Works for me.

I would take one too if I could get rid of some of the stuff I carry in my wallet. It would be a blessing.

Microchip implants like the ones pet owners use to track their dogs and cats could become commonplace in humans in the next decade. Experts are divided on whether they’re appropriate for people, but the implants could offer several advantages. For soldiers and journalists in war zones, an implant could be the difference between life and death. A tracker could also help law enforcement quickly locate a kidnapped child.

“In the long run, chip implants could make it less intrusive than some emerging ID systems which rely on physical biometrics (like your fingerprints or unique eye pattern),” says Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, author of the book “Distraction Addiction” and visiting scholar at Stanford's University’s Peace Innovation Lab.

“This should be a matter of individual choice, but fighting crime should be much easier using chips,” adds sci-fi author Larry Niven, who predicted chip implants in the ’70s. Niven said he supports chip implantation for security reasons, provided it is an opt-in measure.

The chip could be the MARK . It is getting smaller and more powerful as time goes by. In the history of mankind, there has never been a worldwide, or even regional system in place that could even remotely control buying and selling. But in the days we live in, it could be done, by way of a cashless society and RFID in the world combined. It may not be the FINAL mark, but Who knows, maybe it is!

I think that it is interesting the comparison of the book of Revelation to the children of Israel's Exodus. There are so many parallels in Revelation that indeed are similar to the Exodus, that it certainly bears some studying out. Yet I don't think anyone will ever be able to predict, or know for sure how all these things will eventually take place.

And, implantation of a chip, is wrong, and this goes beyond believing what the book of Revelation speaks of. It really ties in to a massive destruction of personal privacy, and once that boundary is crossed, there is no telling how science would try to manipulate one through the use of the chip. It is something we should stand against, I believe.

The Apocalypse is a series visions giving truth in the form of signs and symbols. The "mark of the beast" is thus sign and symbol of a spiritual reality.

Microchips for human control are a SYMPTOM of the spiritual evil represented by the mark, but the mark is not "the implantable microchip".

If you really study what a "phylactery" is you'd have a good idea what the mark represents...

The mark has been around for a long long time, btw.
