Anxiety over mark

[SamanthaAnastasia]

i hate having anxiety about thinking I’m already have the mark of the beast (like somehow it was given to me without my knowledge)
I hate it.

It is not out there yet.

So you do NOT have it.

 

[mark kennedy]

If you had received the mark you would have had to do so wholeheartedly and you would never regret it. That act described in the Apocalypse (Revelations), is a single decisive act that turns the individual into a child of perdition forever. You can't receive the mark of the beast unknowingly, that would defeat the purpose.

You cannot get "the mark of the beast" unknowingly. In order to get the mark you have to knowingly and willingly renounce Christ and knowingly and willingly worship the beast or his image.

Since most people everywhere are willing (and ready) to receive the mark, to "go along",

it is a BIG question to God how to stay free of it. When people receive it, they either do
not know or do not realize they are selling their soul forever,
or they just don't care.

I just want everyone to know...thank you for your responses. I have made posts like these before and I recognize some of you.
Please know that your responses help so so much until I can schedule an appointment for a new therapist.
(Still on my medicines too)
God bless all of you

But how will we recognize it?

Most people either never recognize it, or don't care, and most people caring or not will try to get everyone to get the mark. Thus, do not trust people. Period.

There is only one shepherd, Jesus, whose voice we can listen to and follow Him.

Those who never seek Jesus, who never find Him, as written in the Bible,
are lost along with all who get the mark, whatever it is.

Those who hear His Voice and follow Him, He leads to salvation in His Kingdom.

All perfectly as described in His Word, yet known by few.

I don’t even trust myself. I know what you are saying is true, however, you sometimes never answer a direct question with a direct answer when asked.
For someone like me who is paranoid and distrustful of even myself...sometimes answers like yours to a direct question of how will we recognize it is not helpful. I’m sorry.

There is no way you have taken the mark if you're this concerned about it. Clearly your heart is not to take it, and since you're tuned in to the matter you would know if you had. God is not so unrighteous as to condemn those who are trying their best to please Him. This is an external fear trying to bind you up, and it only contributes to confusion of mind. The Bible says that 1) God is not the author of confusion, 2) we have not received a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2Tim 1.7), and 3) we have not received a spirit of slavery, leading to fear again, but we have received the spirit of adoption as sons, by which we cry out, Abba Father (Romans 8.15).

Try to comfort yourself in the Lord and to abide in His peace. Focusing on His goodness and ignoring the fear-based stuff is probably going to do you a lot of good.

It is a sin to think that Jesus Christ of Nazareth does not have enough power to defeat your sin and anxiety. It may be best to leave your anxiety in His hands and trust He has full control of your salvation. If you continue in this manner your are giving alliance to deception owned by Satan. Rebuke and believe. This is what faith is all doubt.Have FAITH.
Blessings

Sweet child of God, the Lord will not lead you astray when that time comes. Take heart that to receive the mark of the beast is not something that will be forced upon us, the mark of the beast is a choice, if you choose to deny Christ in the last days, you will receive the mark of Satan meaning that you of your own free will, chose to follow him. If you deny to follow the beast, you will receive the seal of God and will be saved for the day of judgment when the Lord will read the names found in the book of life. God is good and if there is any doubt within your heart about whether you're saved or not, that's proof that you are saved because that fear will bring you closer to God and once you've truly accepted Christ as your Lord and saviour and asked for forgiveness of your sins, the Lord puts his seal upon you you are sealed until the day of judgment, you belong to God and no power in all of creation can take you from Him.
I am also all too familiar with anxiety, panic attacks and a mental illness, so I know what it feels like to be afraid all the time and worry about my salvation and the salvation of those whom I love and care about. What has helped me is remaining in constant prayer with God, talking to Him imagining Him sitting, standing or walking right beside me. Everyday, pray for the full armour of God to shield you from this world and the devil and whenever you are afraid, pray.. In the name of Jesus you have no power over me Satan!

Isaiah 26:3 New King James Version (NKJV)
3 You will keep him in perfect Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You.

Ephesians 6:10-20 New King James Version (NKJV)
The Whole Armor of God

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Look on your right arm and forehead. Do you have the symbols "Chi Xi Stigma" ("Xes")? This is the REAL Mark of the Beast:

If you don't have those symbols, you do NOT have the Mark of the Beast. If you have the Holy Spirit, you CANNOT receive the Mark of the Beast because you already have the Seal of God and He keeps you from committing unpardonable sin of which there are 3:

1) Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit
2) Mark of the Beast
3) Suicide (Destroying the Temple of God)

Satan tempts MANY Born of God that they have committed an unpardonable sin so they give up and turn away from the Living God.
