CBDCs will be introduced across large parts of the world starting this year. Russia is apparently first in September. Central banks call it voluntary, but since all major actors will adopt it, anyone who wants to buy and sell will be unable to stay outside the system.

Most churches are not warning people. This is despite the fact that CBDCs lead to total enslavement, just like “the mark.” Many churches may not realize that the “mark of the beast” is the modern system itself. It will, however, become much clearer under CBDCs. Severe and very serious financial crises are visible on the horizon, and in an attempt to counter them, those in power want to control people to a far greater extent.

Will you accept CBDCs when they are launched, or do you see them as something evil?

IMO Jesus isn't too far off coming back, being as the Freemasons are obsessed with the number 33, it wouldn't surprise me if Jesus comes back in the year 2033.

Sorry, but why should an obsession amongst Freemasons have anything at all to do with the date of the Second Coming?

The more you focus on what the Lord is asking you to do the less you worry about things like that. We give too much attention to the devil and his works and miss the obvious by doing so. His followers are about their father's business. That's their primary focus not believers. They don't take their eyes off the prize to worry about you and I.

Just a thought as the top Freemasons tend to run the whole show. It's just a guess of mine when I think Jesus will return.

One thing they (the top Freemasons) certainly do not have a hand in running is the Second Coming of our Lord. So their obsession (as you called it) with the number 33 in no way means that Jesus is obliged to return ion a year with "33" in it.

I don't know if CBDCs are the mark of the beast nor is it a concern. The bible says work while the day is here and that should be our focus. Not fixating on possible future events. There's enough real ones to attend to and the list is growing.

Instead of wondering whether it's the mark of the beast you should be asking yourself if you can survive without it. Do you have enough in your storehouse to turn it down if your conviction says you should? It doesn't matter what you think you should do if you can't and there's time to address that.

We hand over an extreme amount of power to a small group of people. Humanity becomes enslaved. This will become more and more obvious over time. I would be very surprised if those who knowingly contribute to it don’t face consequences.

We have no control over anyones behavior but we have jurisdiction over our response. Either we live intentionally or life happens to us. When you choose to be powerless instead of proactive you sacrifice our autonomy. I have no concerns about digital currency nor am I enslaved. When I learned about the subject I took action. That's what you do when you're responsible. You don't sit around musing over bad things to come. You get out of harms way.

It won’t be noticeable right away of course, but over time people will automatically become enslaved under a CBDC. It’s simple logic. We have a responsibility for what the world will look like in 5, 10, or 20 years. The warnings about “the mark” in the Bible are precisely about this or the idea that humanity risks becoming enslaved.

That isn't true. They've been making statements about CBDCs and Universal Basic Income for years. The first pilot for UBI took place in California a long time ago and I read about in Fortune magazine. You don't have to be a financial guru to know the government can't pay everyone to stay home and if it does they're getting more in return.

You don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to know a public message saying you'll own nothing and be happy during a global crisis is inappropriate and beyond the norm. You don't need to figure out the mark when the natural is showing you something's change. You're fixating on the obscure when the simple is right before your eyes.

That's how deduction works. You don't reach for the obscure immediately. You line up the evidence like a detective and look for common denominators. You've already been told the new economy is for the few not the many and useless people will be pacified through drugs, alcohol and video games. People in high places have continually said you're expendable and your quality of life will be bad. And you were given a date for the reset in 2030.

What more do you want? At what point does society bear responsibility to act? If they're in the dark it's because they've chosen to be ignorant or distracted themselves with foolishness. The bible says work while the day is here because night is coming and that's your response. You get in your prayer closet and ask for answers instead of focusing on 'high things'. Speculation isn't a solution and that comes first. We all have to do our part so we're not a burden on one another.

Just saw this earlier. Everyone isn't sitting on their hands debating what's to come. They're taking action.

Rich Americans Are Increasingly Collecting Citizenships As ‘Plan B

KEY FACTS

The U.S. has replaced China as the largest market for clients seeking secondary or tertiary citizenships, Eric Major, CEO and chairman of the investment migration advisory firm Latitude World, told Forbes.

More than six in 10 Americans (61%) earning over $200,000 annually are considering moving to another country within five years, according to a study to be released next month from Apex Capital Partners, an advisory firm that helps people secure foreign residency and citizenship.

“The rate of growth of interest from Americans is skyrocketing,” Nuri Katz, president of Apex Capital Partners told Forbes, noting the survey asked respondents if they were left- or right-leaning “and it was 50-50.”

Henley & Partners reported inquiries from U.S. nationals seeking alternative residence or citizenship increased 183% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2025, after President Trump was elected to a second term.
The number of Americans applying for citizenship through ancestry in Europe and Canada has also risen significantly

I don't think CBDC's are the mark of the beast, but I do think they are related. They would be restricted IF the mark isn't willingly received. CBDC makes logical sense for anyone looking to thwart terrorist attempts because it will become impossible to move money around without a paper trail. This would also assist is monitoring treaty compliance.
