We have very sophisticated means of caring for our dental health as well, but poor dental hygiene remains a major problem.

Thousands Of Swedes Are Inserting Microchips Under Their Skin

For a long time the social security number or S(ocial) I(nsurance) N(umber) was considered to be the mark of the beast.
Getting a chip w/o a cover to protect against tech transfer of information seems irresponsible to oneself at the least.

How are you wise about it? You work without a social security number?

Basically, no different from getting a smart phone/computer in order to make certain things more easily done.

No I have one and started collecting after 50 years in the labor force! (Started working for a paycheck when I was 14).
But the wisdom is to not panic, be scared or rush to judgment on all these advancements. Satan works his plan slowly and gradually. In my life I have seen people paid by cash, tehn by check, then by direct deposit.
I have seen the proliferation of credit cards and debit cards so cash is almost non essential (some countries are experimenting doing away with cash). We can pay bills automatically, pay them online and swipe a tiny plastic or a smartphone to pay for numerous things. All these are conditioning people toward that fateful day when the mark that damns a soul forever begins!
But believers cannot accept the mark by accident. First the church will be gone, and second the trib saints will know the fate of those who take the mark!

Those who choose to receive the mark of the Beast (when it arrives) will make it clear that they do not love Jesus.

The mark of the beats does not take your soul. The mark of the beast is received because of who your soul already actually belonged to.
And the Scripture is clear you can not receive the mark and be saved afterwards, as Sabertooth already demonstrated in Revelation 14:9-11 in post #15 (see also Revelation 19:20 and Revelation 20:4).
It is explicitly physical, NOT spiritual. The mark grants or denies financial powers, "so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name." Revelation 13:17

Has nothing to do with mark of the best. Not sure why so many skip the 1st part. The beast tells the world to worship it or you die. Chip or no chip...scan lines means nothing. For any that just WORSHIP the beast are lost. So before the mark ALL that worship it KNOW they are saying NO to GOD and yes to the antichrist.

I think that most here know that it does not currently satisfy the terms given in Revelation, but it is viable precursor.
One scenario that can play out is that this system becomes widespread and so many people have their finances tied up in it (perhaps even in a cryptocurrency*). Then, the Beast comes along and declares that said system requires a necessary upgrade. That upgrade would be confirmed by a choice of three accompanying, outward marks...
*To be clear, I don't believe that the MOB requires the complete elimination of cash, but it could be used as a form of

Cain received the number of the beast, because he demonstrated that he was of the flesh, and not of the spirit. The mark of the beast is merely means that you are a beast, and have not overcome the flesh. You demonstrate that you are a beast, by your works (your right hand) and what you think (your forehead). God's elect are also beasts, but they overcome their nature by being born again.
Ecc 3:18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.
2Pe 2:12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
2Pe 2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
2Pe 2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
Rev 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
Rev 4:7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.
Rev 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
Rev 4:9 And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,
Rev 4:10 The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
Rev 4:11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Rev 14:3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.

Have you not read prophecy? How the beast will be able to control all the buying and selling in the entire world? The mark of the beast, 666?
All predicted thousands of years before any human mind could even begin to conceive how it could be possible.
