Implants coming.

I recall someone testing that in Japan years ago, having a brain implant in lieu of a game controller. So someone finally finished the research, weirdness.

It's been happening in Europe for a while, but not for medical reasons. It's not the MOB, but it may be conditioning people to receive it. If you had permanent spinal damage, a chip to fix it would be very appealing.

Your right Dids. It may be non-related to the mark but, it's a precursor to it. Just read an article where Elon was interviewed by Babylon Bee where he was asked about his beliefs on God. He wasn't under any pressure about what he said. He says he believes in the teachings of Christ. He wasn't uncomfortable at all in his answers. As they were talking he mentioned that if Jesus was saving people he wouldn't stand in his way, sure... I would be saved. Why not? He's off to a good start.

He does believe in God but we know that it's more than that. Even the devils believe, and they tremble. Jesus told his disciples in John 14 "Believe in God, also believe in me." To Elon Musk we can pray that he goes the next step to believe in Jesus as the (Son of God) and receive Christ in his heart... and what a witness that would be.

You have a totally blessed day...

I’ve heard about ‘chip parties’ and the growing interest in implants and androids. I remember a survey that questioned if you’d allow one to babysit your child. I won’t call it weirdness. But there’s definitely ignorance.

We’ve gone in a different direction on technology. It’s too invasive and isn’t a replacement for humans. I’m not anti-technology. But I’m anti-real.

This tech has been available for some time in Europe. At least one company offers it to employees. It allows people to enter buildings and clock on/off by the wave of a hand.

I'm not convinced the MOB is an implant. I suspect that it will be visible so that it will be immediately recognisable to the "compliance police" who enforce the beast's laws. Hitler had it in reverse. Jews were tattooed with a number. The idea is not new.

To add to this, the mark of the beast will not be something that one accepts without knowing the full implications of what it means. It is not something that one will be forced against their will to take. There will be implications for not taking it of course, however, one will not be forced to take it with a gun to their head. They will either take it freely or choose to take it after weighing the consequences of not taking it against staying faithful to God and, therefore, choose to take it. They will know full well that it means that they renounce their faith in anything other than to the antichrist. God bought us with the cost of His son. The antichrist will buy them with threats of being unable to buy things themselves.

It appears that technology is growing at a much faster rate, than most people expected.
I watched a video and the content creator was suprised how, A.I. was able to duplicate his appearance and voice yet change the content.

I wonder if we're really thinking rightly about the implant issue as being the mark of the beast. I think at least it should be a subject one should re-examine and not just make certain assuptions, that the MOB is some chip put in the right hand or forehead.

Other Bible teachers question it as being an implant at all. Here's why. The human brain is the area where a person makes decisions. With his hands, he performs actions, deeds or works. Through the “right hand,” a person acts upon choices made in his “forehead”—the mind. Duet 6 says the following and it speaks of the hand and forehead in a positive way.

“Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do…these words, which I command you…and you shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes” (vs. 3, 6, 8).

Also in Rev 7:3,4 “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed..."

There was no physical anything in the above verses. They weren't meant to do anything with their real hands or forehead in Deut 6 (the top verse) it was meant in a figurative way. The issue is what is one doing with their minds and their actions.

Rev 13 says, "no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark” So under the Anti-Christ no one can buy or sell if they don't obey him, or come into agreement with his way or world view. So is the MOB really some type of RFID chip? I won't say it isn't for a fact and if some type of leader said I needed to take a physical chip or I can't buy or sell.....I wouldn't be quick to do so......but could it be really just talking about what you do with your mind and actions? That is what this type of language seemed to mean in Deut 6. Perhaps it means the same in Rev 13?

Also to consider. Can we actually envision a culture willing to sign on to anything implanted in their forehead? People are concerned about looks and what about infections that can result from such a thing? I'm not sure it would be an easy thing or even possible to have mass populations sign on to a foreign object implanted in all places their forehead. I think if a leader sought to do that the masses would question his intelligence and say how dumb can you get when there's multiple other ways to have identification being verified. In the covid times you'd have the phone app showing vaccination records....why wouldn't a smart leader use something like that?

So again I won't say the mark isn't a chip for certain. I don't want to be held responsible for one taking something they shouldn't as in this guy told me it wasn't the mark. I wouldn't take it if it came to that. But I think perhaps it's a misapplication when we don't see how the hand and forehead issue has been used other places in scripture.

The whole agenda now seems to be human 2.0 if you listen to Yuval Harari he said God had his turn, now its our turn...

Got I chip brain. Problems have had no.

I seem to recall a sci fi horror movie starting out with that line.

Unliklely. FDA has to approve this and Neuralink has a long way to go to satisfy FDA's requirements.

You could be right AP. We have a saying. If a thing is possible, regardless of how evil or tabu, someone, somewhere is doing it.
Eventually, I think, if this becomes a reality, it will be done and done everywhere.
