Scared of the mark of the beast

[Jamdoc]

Wearing a mask is a sign of being considerate for others.



You will recognize it. You will be forced to take the mark on the forehead or on the right hand. It will be the main currency for you to buy goods, pay for services, your rent, apply for a job, buy something from Amazon or Ebay, etc. If you don't have the mark, you don't have money and people won't hire you. Even if you want to exchange your old currency, you can't. You will get an error....beep... please try again.



If you take the mark, it will be the lake of fire forever. The burning torment will be so unbearable that you just want to die but you can't. You will be alive tormented for eternity. Even demons are so afraid of this day.

If they kill you, that's it. You could pray Stephen's prayer, "Lord, I surrender my spirit to you" before feeling the pain of stoning.

Lucky for us it seems the main means of killing saints will be beheading, that's quicker and more painless than stoning.
Revelation 20:4

And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

You will not take the mark of the beast on accident. You will have to worship something to take it, you will know that the beast is your God when you take it.
The mask is just, a public health thing, you wear one as a prudent precaution and courtesy for others that may be more vulnerable to a virus that you may not be aware you are carrying.
The mark is not going to be something you can take off and discard if you change your mind about it. You will not be killed for not wearing a mask.

At least not yet.

We've had epidemics and pandemics of deadly diseases since time began. The Coronavirus is not the mark of the beast.

Revelation 20:4

And should I be beheaded for refusing the mark then so be it. God will give me the strength to go out bravely and face the guillotine like a boss.

well, not like a boss, but like one walking in faith that they ascend to their father and your father, their God and your God, with hope and optimism and knowing that vengeance for your death will be the Lord's.

Don't worry about not knowing. The antichrist will make sure that you and everyone knows of your choice over God. He will revel in it for all to see.
In my mind somewhere it says that the mark will be in the hand or the forehead? Your choice is just as important to God so there will be two that make sure you know what you are signing for or away.
Also, supposedly there will be many things you will not be able to do without the mark such as buy food, etc. That's a dead giveaway. Stay alert.
Bless you!

You will be with the greatest in the whole world, God and Jesus and no longer in the world with satan.

Is corona = 666 just a coincidence then?

A virus itself isn't the mark, thats not whats meant here. The whole word and agenda behind it and what leads up to it can be.

With everything that's going on, I am scared of the Mark of the Beast. I heard some people actually think the whole wearing masks thing is mark of the beast? I sincerely hope it's not because then I am screwed.

I am scared that when the Anti Christ comes I won't recognize it and I'll be deceived.I don't want to be. I want to remain faithful to God and not take that mark, no matter if it means being tortured. Or killed.

If I die, so be it. Because I know the eternal rewards will be greater than anything. Would I be scared at the prospect of dying? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't. I don't know what getting my head chopped off would feel like. (shudders). But I'd rather be in Heaven. And I would pray that God would be with me and help me face death boldly and with courage. I'd also pray that I would have the courage of those that died defying evil people like Hitler.

Any advice to help me not be worried would be appreciated.

the beast has already mark everybody.

That's not biblical.

good point. Rev 13 presents this as very very scary.

It says the whole world is deceived by it

Matthew 24 says it is soooo powerful even the very elect are at risk - "if possible to deceive the very elect".

2 Thess 2 says that it comes with all the power and signs and wonders of satan himself.

The mark of the beast is its name or number. Rev 13:16. That is, it’s a sign that you worship this opponent of God. Something isn’t a mark of the beast unless it is a sign that you are a follower of the enemy. Wearing a mask is not a sign that you are worshipping the beast. Neither are all the other things that Christians get upset about. It’s hard to see how a medical mask could be the name or number of the beast. Furthermore, God judges us knowing our intention, so it’s not something one could do without intending it to be a sign of submission to the enemy.

I had some Christians try to tell me that the mark of the beast was in the COVID19 vaccine so I should not take it. You cannot turn a GPS receiver, and RF transmitter, a microprocessor to control it all, an energy source powerful enough to transmit a signal, an antenna system with counter-poise, and all the circuitry to make it all happen and turn that into molecules using nanobots that flow thru an epidermic needle. Besides, we already have all that tech in our smart phones, so why would there even be a need to molecularize it (which is not physically possible)?

 

[Jamdoc]

Nobody will be taking the mark of the beast by accident and so no it's not the covid vaccine. You didn't have to worship a world leader to get it.

I think the mark of the beast ('s name) has to be after the abomination of desolation (the image of the beast) is standing on the temple mount. Which people will be required at that time to worship the beast and his image.

I agree with this. It makes sense, and if you believe in the premillenial rapture, the church will be gone and only unsaved people will be left, though even then God made a plan to allow some to reject the mark and stand against the beast until the end, dying a martyr's death and being saved. I'm not there yet, but I wonder if the vast number that suddenly appear in heaven to John are from rapture of the church or martyrs from the tribulation that refuse the mark of the beast?

I would say yes. It is when the week of days is split though. The week of the 7th Trumpet. It is not in the Seals, first 6 Trumpets, nor 7 Thunders.
