  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

That would limit how a person with neurological problems can be treated. I don't think we would be tricked into the mark of the beast with medical treatment for neurological conditions. The mark of the beast will be able to be rejected because Christians will not trust it because of other reasons other than it being a chip - there will be accompanying signs and it will be associated, depending on your Eschatology belief system, with the antichrist. I haven't seen any sign this chip to treat a man being paralyzed has to do with the antichrist, and this would only be a very little medical device for a specific treatment. The mark of the beast will be widespread and involves identity and buying/selling. Not matching this at all.
In the example you gave, it has nothing to do with buying or selling, and I am not sure where those chips go in the body.

The chip in this article is put into the brain to help an issue with the nervous system. Thanks to this, the man can now move his hand again. Neurological problems can be horrible for those who have them, so they deserve medical relief as much as those with heart issues get granted a pacemaker. Avoiding it just because it happens to be in the head doesn't make sense to me.

Satan is more clever in logic than any of us or all of us put together working in our carnal minds. Nobody is going to figure it out as a logical exercise. It's not going to be anything that can be worked out by a simple pattern of logic.

It may not even be the same physical thing in every case. Or it may be a number of different things that have the same moral effect.

It's going to be something that will require the specific Holy Spirit warning in each individual: "Don't take that."

I just watched a bit of Netflix "Altered Carbon" a few minutes ago where I heard the phrase "Expect nothing so we can be ready for anything"...it suddenly makes sense.

Since I view the 1st century Temple and Jerusalem in Revelation, I noticed the similarity of John 2 and Revelation 18 concerning "buying and selling" of animals for sacrifice.

Nahum 3:2
A sound of a Whip, and sound of a quaking wheel, and horse galloping, and chariot leaping. A horseman mounting. And blazing sword, and flashing spear, and many wounded and mass of corpses and there is no end to bodies. [Isaiah 28 "scourge"]


John 2: [Revelation 18:11]
14 and He found in the Temple those selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting,
15 and having made a whip of small cords, He put all forth out of the temple, also the sheep, and the oxen;
and of the money-changers he poured out the coins, and the tables he overthrew,

Revelation 18:11
11 And the merchants of the land are lamenting and are mourning over Her, that the cargo of them no-one is buying not-still
13 and cinnamon and incenses and attars and frankincense and wine and oil and flour and grain
and beasts and sheep and of horses and of chariots and of bodies and souls of men.

If you look at the greek word used for "plagues" in Revelation, it actually means "blows/stripes"

4127 plege plhgaV from 4141;; n f
Strong's Greek: 4127. πληγή (plégé) -- a blow, wound

Revelation 15:1
And I perceived another sign in the heaven, great and marvelous. Seven Messengers having the last seven blows/stripes/plhgaV <4127>,
that in them is finished the fury of the God.

Luke 12:48
and he who, not having known, and having done things worthy of stripes<4127>, shall be beaten with few; and to every one to whom much was given, much shall be required from him; and to whom they did commit much, more abundantly they will ask of him.

Mat 27:26
Then did he release to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus,
he delivered him up that he may be crucified;

This truly happened in 2014, just think what we can do now with computers.

The mark is a chip, it's not a mark on your skin, the chip its self is a mark, the beast is a computer, it shows images of fire coming down to heaven.

But you need to see this if you have not yet.


The guy's life is pretty much over being quadriplegic. If he wants to be implanted than OK. Personally I don't like surgeries, they're pretty painful. I don't really see the mark of the beast in that video.

Exactly. As we were taught: "Never fall in love with your own hypothesis, because you'll only look at the data that makes your hypothesis look beautiful"
