The Mark of the Beast Exposed! - Video Forward

The Bible speaks of a mark that will be enforced directly before the second coming of Yeshua. The is said to be a stamp or seal or badge of servitude to some authority or being.

The Sabbath day of Adonai which He hollowed since in the beginning of his creation, is his the mark or seal or sign of His covenant as stated in Exodus 31:12-13. Adonai told His people not to forget this set apart time, but to remember and sanctify it.

Now, I have a question regarding a video which was sent to me by a friend of mine. Its about the mark of the beast. In the video, the mark of the beast is the observance of sun-day and negleting and throwing away Shabbat.

So can you share me your thoughts about sun-day being the mark of the beast.

This is probably better suited for the Christians-only section.

I watched the video. It's conspiracy theory nonsense designed to appeal to people with paranoid personality disorder.

Anyone can read the Bible in a different way to come up with other imaginative interpretations. I mean seriously... Sunday as the Mark of the Beast? How about jaywalking?


eudaimonia,

Not philosophically I can't.
However, I do have a link in my signature that might shed some light on it biblically...but then again, maybe not ehehe.

[Mark51]

Regarding the beast of Revelation 13:1, 2, The Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible points out that it “combines in itself the joint characteristics of the four beasts of Daniel’s vision…. Accordingly, this first beast [of Revelation] represents the combined forces of all political rule opposed to God in the world.” This observation is affirmed by Revelation 13:7, which says of the beast: “Authority was given it over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.”

In the Scriptures, certain numbers have symbolic significance. The number seven, for example, is often used to symbolize that which is complete, or perfect, in God’s eyes. For instance, God’s creative week comprises seven ‘days,’ or extended time periods, during which God completely accomplishes his creative purpose regarding the earth. (Genesis 1:3-2:3) God’s “sayings” are like silver that has been “clarified seven times,” thus perfectly refined. (Psalm 12:6; Proverbs 30:5, 6) The leper Naaman was told to bathe seven times in the Jordan River, after which he was completely healed.-2 Kings 5:10, 14.

A clue to the meaning of 666 lies in its being “a man’s number,” or as “a human number.” This expression could not refer to an individual human, for Satan-not any man-has authority over the beast. (Luke 4:5, 6; 1 John 5:19; Revelation 13:2, 18) Rather, the beast’s having “a human number,” or mark, suggests that it is a human entity, not spirit or demon, and that it therefore manifests certain human traits. (Romans 3:23) The beast’s having “a human number,” therefore, indicates that governments reflect the fallen human condition, the mark of sin and imperfection.

The Bible use beasts as symbols of human rulership for at least two reasons. First, because of the beastly record of bloodshed that governments have accrued over the centuries. (Ecclesiastes 8:9) The second reason is that “the dragon [Satan] gave to the beast its power and its throne and great authority.” (Revelation 12:9; 13:2) Accordingly, human rulership is a product of the Devil, thus reflecting his beastly, dragonlike disposition.-John 8:44; Ephesians 6:12.

“The mark,” whether on the right hand or on the forehead, figuratively speaking, is a symbol that identifies its bearer as one who gives worshipful support to the beastlike political systems of the world. Those having the mark give to “Caesar” that which rightly belongs to God. (Luke 20:25; Revelation 13:4, 8; 14:1) By giving worshipful honor to the political state, its symbols, and its military might, to which they look for hope and salvation. Any worship that they render the true God is merely lip service.
