There is a possibility this is not true but I wish it was. Perhaps it is not true because people can not be excused for not choosing to accept what Jesus says to draw near to Him and trust His judgement that those who are unwilling to accept Him did not value His great love for them and did not count the cost of losing Him for the right to live a life unworthy of Him
Mark of the beast is something you choose to believe in if one would never want to have it if he was not forced God will not let people have it. It is for those who despise the light when they know it and hate Jesus without a cause. God knows the heart of each. I bet many non Christians are saved who desired to come to Jesus but the light was never preached before properly they do not despise the light. To be saved upon death you have to walk in the footsteps of Christ. All who did not but did not despise the light will go to a horrible long hell but it will be temporary before the last judgement. The direct way to heaven is through the cross preaching the gospel of light and following it
