In the days to come, when the world seems to be full of evil, as it already seems to be. Who or what will you put your trust in to protect you? I have already decided to trust in God and only him.

The makers of VeriChip have launched a new campaign.
It's called "Protected by VeriChip" It's a product awareness campaign. It shows how Verichip can be used for protection in security, medical, and financial areas of our lives. Yes it can be used for all your banking, and credit card transactions. The only tamper proof form of identification.

I still hold firm, that this is the technology that's going to be used as the mark of the beast.

The press release by the company about the campaign can be read here http://www.adsx.com/news/2002/060602.html

We must never forget to place all of our trust in God, and not in the things that the world has to offer us. It is God who will protect, and care for us in the times that lie ahead, to accept a chip would be saying you don't trust him enough, so you need some kind of a back-up plan, God is our back-up plan folks! He's our one and only plan.

Would It be cruel to say chips are for dips? I was thinking this would be a fun anti-chip slogan, but it seems just a little, ummm I don't know, guess I just don't want to be calling anyone a dip, doesn't seem very nice for some reason. and would most likely turn some people away instead of simply getting their attention.

Teric, Do you think they will honor our requests as to where we would like the chip? If the Government says the forehead is where it will be placed I don't think we will have much choice, ya think? We will be controlled by a totallitarian government by that time! Sounds pretty scarey!! I would like the chip in my left ankle if it's possible. But then that might be a problem when I go for my long walks in the evenings. I think the forehead is a pretty convienient location though, especially when you go to the bank to withdraw some cash or check out your groceries at the local supermarket! I think there is something in the works where they can scan your eyeballs with some hi-tech thingamagigies! Guess we just need to be ready! I got my Rapture shoes all polished up and ready to go!

Here is another view point that should be considered when looking for a mark on the forehead or hand . Know where the action is in the book of Revelation and you may have a better understanding . So check it out .

Brian, thanks for your help, I will look at the link you posted.... Yes there sure is a lot of activity going on in Rev for us to look at and study..... As for looking for the mark, I think the main thing we should be looking for is the presence of Jesus who lives in us now.

Some interesting points you all have made.
I think there will be reasons for the mark to go in the right hand and forehead, mostly because what I have read about the Digital Angel chip (the improved, version of VeriChip that the comapany is working on) two things I have read about this, and the company keeps changing info about it, they once stated that the battery in it would be recharged by flextuations in body temp. Now they say muscle movement. Either way the body temp changes most in your right hand and forehead, and when I think about muscle movement we most likely use those muscles in our hands more than any other, and also our forhead every time we make a facial expession.

But what I'm really thinking now is, when they make people take the mark of beast, and if they decide to make an allowence for christians, say a christian can have it placed in their left hand so that they wont have to worry about the forehead, right hand stuff. Will that in any way change what it is? Do you think God would say, You have taken the mark of the beast, but since you didn't take it in the right hand or forehead, It's ok. I don't know, something tells me that God doesn't work that way.

I have never been sure what to think of the tefillin thingy, sometimes I think the people took something literal that wasn't meant literally, but at the same time I must note, that God could have given them specific instructions on how to wear it. It's nice to read more info about it, helps bring more understanding about the subject.

I understand the prophecies are all centered around Israel. I'm not sure what it is you're pointing out about the tefillin though, Do you think this is to be the mark of the beast? It could never be used to buy or sell goods, I noticed there are far too many rules about wearing it, to be able to wear it permanantly at any point. Or do you think it might be a mark from God? Either way it's an interesting subject, one that's definatly worth our attention.

Hi graftMeIn . I don't believe the prophecies in revelation are directed at us , I believe it points to the Jews , many of them will be turning to Jesus at that time , and it has already started , they are called Messianic jews . These are the ones who have victory over the beast ( Revelation : 15 ) . If you know the song of Moses , then you must be jewish . Revelation 14 speaks of a group of persons who have jesus fathers name written in their foreheads ( Tefillin or Phylactery ) , get it ? . There are also two witnesses mentioned , and they are in the city of Jerusalem , not New York or any where else . That will do me for now , I'm not real big on pushing heaps of buttons .

When the Beast rules from jerusalem he will try to replace Gods name and laws ( Ten comandments ) with his own when he claims to be the ultimate God . The jews who refuse him will have their heads chopped off ( Arabs do this even now ) . Jews are also known for their buying and selling ( Doing buisness ) . The arabs already follow a false prophet , I don't think we will be shocked when another comes . I can understand placing a chip in my hand , but there is no logic in placing it in my forehead . Personly I would like one on my butt , so when I buy my goods I can moon people at the same time . ha ha
