What if a mentally challenged person gets the mark of the beast

[Radagast]

Maybe, maybe not. The beast is already, has been for longer than our lives....

Really? Care to say who the Beast is, then?

The evil that is fleshy mankind has no problem eliminating those who do not fit the 'system', be they disabled or merely followers of a different kingdom (authourity) than man's. Such is life as we know it, the result of putting our will before the will of the Father.

 

[Sketcher]

There are mentally challenged people who reject Jesus today, without the mark. Same fate if they don't repent and believe.

According to God's Word, Plan and Purpose,
or
according to tradition ?

It takes a bit of reconstruction of ideas, or 'un'learning...
but might not take too long .... ....
Oh.... just noticed the section this is in, and the op/ topic ...
so this may be continued in another section Yahweh Willing ...

That wasn't an answer.

Nobody's quite sure what the "mark of the beast" is, but it's nothing that exists right now.

Sure it exists. It's these wicked stretch marks on my arms and chest from all these sweet gains I've been getting at the gym.

If they are incapable of thinking properly to do those things. But I got some really good answers so far.

God is altogether just and fair as well as Sovereign. He will never cast an undeserving person in hell that cannot comprehend any gospel and or His Word.
These little people with down syndrome and such are very special and have a purity that is a blessing to behold. I am positive God has a very special plan for them.

then they shouldn't be having children in the first place.

Remember the good old days of Aryan selection before all this genetic modification? (hope you understand sarcasm)

The "mark of the beast" is not a bar code, microchip, credit card, etc. The anti-Christ described in Revelation is Nero, 666 is the number of man, hence representing his status as "ruler of the world" (the Roman Empire, which at the time was so big that it might as well have been the world), and the mark of the beast is the Roman-era coins used for currency back then, which had Nero's face stamped on it. Back then it was common for the current ruler of the country to appear on the money (in the USA there is a law saying that no living presidents can be on money, so this doesn't happen).

 

[timothyu]

In other words the mark of the beast is the authority of man (over the authority - kingdom - of God) ? Gonna be a lot of human governed minion supporters unhappy.

 

[grandvizier1006]

No, it means that there's no need to be excessively paranoid about "the mark of the beast" because said beast and mark have already passed into history, most likely.

 

[timothyu]

because said beast and mark have already passed into history, most likely.

I'm not so sure as the world of man seems to be full tilt seeking gain at the expense of others, putting their will before God's.

r u counting those w' autism & asperger's both (or should i say asd) since (in my case), i can't recognize god's voice - thru answers or prayer, unable to recognize warning signs, unable 2 understand most of the gospel (symbolism, imagry, codes, clues, numbers, names etc is to difficult & i'm unable to read between the lines as well)...i can only understand some of the literal parts, not all)...i do know rite from wrong, but don't always know that i'm sinning unless it's literally written in the bible (like the 10 commandments - thou everything under the 10 commandments, 4 example has 2 be listed/written down, defined/explained...in other words, it's gotta be like a full a 'book of sins', b4 i understand)...i'm asking cuz i think i took the mark, but once i found out abt it (2 yrs ago), i've repented daily...u can read more info abt what i believe it 2 be on autusm & the mark of the beast

 

[Kristen76]

There is an enormous amount of ridiculous claptrap regarding the mark of the beast. Contrary to what lying satanists might claim, it is NOT some kind of automatic ticket to damnation. It is NOT the sign that you are the servant of the beast. Scripture is very plain on this. Nowhere does it identify the mark as any such thing. It is something that people are COMPELLED to have. The second beast causes it to happen. Having it doesn't destroy salvation. I challenge anyone at all to produce explicit quotation from Scripture to prove that it is some kind of "membership" thing or some kind of "sign" of damnation. Produce the Scripture.

I also challenge anyone to produce Scripture that states people are to "resist" this mark.

Revelation 14
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.I also challenge anyone to produce Scripture that states people are to "resist" this mark.

I also challenge anyone to produce Scripture that states people are to "resist" this mark.

Revelation 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
