Do not take the Mark. (Image provided courtesy of www.theology21.com).
It is referenced in pop culture. There are songs about it. It is one of the most well-known phrases in the Bible. But what exactly is the Mark of The Beast? Why is it even necessary to be implemented? What makes it so bad in God’s eyes. This article will seek to examine what the Bible specifically says about the Mark.
The Mark of The Beast is described in detail in Revelation Chapter 13:
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
The word for “mark” in Greek is charagma, which means “a stamp or imprinted mark.” So the mark will be some kind of imprint into the hand or forehead. The “he” in verse 16, who implements this program is the False Prophet. The False Prophet will be the counterpart to the antichrist. He will seek to promote the Antichrist and will be in charge of leading the entire world into the worship of this false satanic Messiah as god. Another part of his work will be leading all of the citizens of the world to take the Mark as a part of a global economic system.
One World Economy
The Bible is clear here: no item can be bought or sold without the Mark. It is the one source for all commercial transactions. Could it be possible that a mark could control buying and selling? That would require technology that could contain your financial data like bank records, credit card limit and be able to conduct transactions as well. The Apostle John wrote this prophecy 2,000 years ago. Yet today that technology exists. With wireless and satellite technology, a microchip or even an electronic stamp can do just this type of function.
Here is an advertisement for the Verichip (they have since changed their name to PositiveID) RFID technology, a chip with satelite transmission capabilities that is implanted under the skin in your hand:
Although the chip is being advertised for medical use, it’s easy to see how it could be used to store financial data. The Bible details that the changes ushered into society at the end times will all be in the name of “peace and safety.” The miraculous innovations and feats of the Antichrist will be welcomed as amazing solutions to make the lives of humanity easier and safer.
And as we recently reported, there is now an electronic tattoo or stamp that can store electronic data, be scanned for information, transmit data to remote computers via wi-fi and is powered by the sun and human bio-electricity:
Google’s E-Wallet technology also has turned the phone into a “virtual wallet” that will just need to be scanned to make purchases. Again, none of the aforementioned innovations are the Mark of The Beast. They are being mentioned to show that clearly, the technology now exists to establish the Mark in the manner that the Bible predicts.
Google E-Wallet
It is amazing that such a prophecy could have been written in the first century A.D. in the Roman Empire, a time when not only could currency purchase goods, barter was still a common method of commerce. At that time in Roman-controlled Judea, one could purchase goods with anything of value. So for John to write about a future economic system where every transaction of every person in the world is controlled by an imprint in one’s hand is an amazing insight and prophetic vision of the future! The technology could achieve system would not be available for another 2,000 years. And notice how specific the prophecy is. There is nothing vague or symbolic or “apocalyptic” in it. The mark controls all commerce, for all people, all over the world. How could John know this but by divine inspiration? This is the power of Bible prophecy
The Name and The Number of the Beast
“And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”
The verse above states that in addition to the Mark, the name of The Beast or the number of the Beast can be used as well for buying and selling. Now the name of the Beast is not stated directly in the scriptures, but the number is. And that number is 666. There is much speculation as to what this number means but the Bible is clear that it will be the number associated with the Antichrist. And taking that number will be identifying with him.
As society has moved further from the Bible and morals in general, the number of the Beast has become a staple in pop culture as a satanic reference. It is sad that so many fans of stars and their music are being conditioned not to take this number seriously or see it as ominous. Yet to God, this number represents pure evil and rebellion. The Antichrist will embody all of the evil of Satan and bring in a 3 1/2 year reign so bloody and brutal it will exceed all of his spiritual predecessors (Hitler, Antiochus Epiphanes, etc.). And certainly those who are into the occult are very much believers in promoting the number of the Beast.
Here are some examples:
Heavy Metal Rock Group Iron Maiden
An ad for an Iron Maiden Documentary.
And here are lyrics from their song entitled “666 – The Number of The Beast”
but I feel drawn
towards the chanting hordes
seem to mesmerise…can’t avoid their eyes
6-6-6 the Number of the Beast
6-6-6 the one for you and me
I’m coming back
I will return
And I’ll possess your body
and I’ll make you burn
I’ll have the fire
I’ll have the force
I’ll have the power
to make my evil take its course
Academy Award=Winning Rap Group Three-6 Mafia (whose name is a subtle reference to 666)
Lyrics from their song “F— With This Click”
How can you have faith in a God
That can not even control creation?
How can he lead you to salvation?
There is no hope in chaos-only
Welcome to the other side of reality
And this is your eternity (eternity)…
…I’m on a cross Lucifer please cut me free (cut me free)
I’ll draw your portrait if you pull these nails out my feet (nails out my feet)
My cross turns upside down
And finally I.m loose
I flip the land and released the others who sinned, tha scarecrow and the juice
I look to the sky and all I could say was
Finally it’s on again
No lord could stop us now
Cause the demons reborn again
My praise
The first power found me
So I could never coward out
A mind for murder but the barrel couldn’t tell you half about this Antichrist

And here is a commercial for a British phone information service that seems to be making a pretty strong reference to the Mark:
Of course note the use of a mark on the arm, the veiled reference to 666 and even the use of occult symbolism such as the All-Seeing eye and pyramid. Again if you are questioning the Bible then you also need to question pop culture – why is it that so many artists, entertainers and marketing folks are promoting this number from the Book of Revelation that is linked to the corruption of society and the leader who will mastermind it?
The Problem is Choice
Do not be deceived. This not something to be taken lightly or use for entertainment. The Antichrist will not come into power by force. He will be someone who the people desire and adore. And so will the Mark. It will be something people actually want, in pure defiance of God. The Mark will represent the ultimate choice for humanity. But God will make sure in the end times everyone will be aware of the stakes:
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.
Taking the Mark will lead to eternal damnation and the people of the world will know it. So why would anyone still take it? Because they will choose to believe in the lies of the Antichrist over the Word of God. The Antichrist will present himself as the solution to the world’s problems. With a false message of hope for humanity built on human achievement rather than faith in God. And the choice to take the Mark will be a point of no return for those who choose to take it. It is the ultimate identification with Satan and his counterfeit seed, the Antichrist.
Those who do not take the mark will be executed by the Antichrist’s administration. But they are rewarded by The Lord:
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. – Revelation 15.
Those who refuse the Mark will also be rewarded by living and reining with Jesus Christ in His 1,000 Year millennial kingdom, which will be established after Armageddon where the Antichrist, False Prophet and all their armies will be destroyed by the brightness of the arrival of Jesus.
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. — Revelation 20.
What It Means Today
More marketing of the number of the Beast.
It’s very possible that the generation of people living in the Earth now will not experience the end times, Great Tribulation, the Antichrist or the Mark of the Beast. We may have all passed away before any part of this spectacular period commences. But that does not change the main issue: choice. We are still caught up in a war between two kingdoms: one of light and one of darkness. The Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Satan. And we are the prize. The devil and his minions are seeking to corrupt society to try and elevate Satan and His seed, the Antichrist, into the role of God.
And so far they are making a great deal of progress. Society needs to be prepped and moved from righteousness to openly desire and worship the False Messiah. And Satan will do this by one primary means: deception. Before His crucifixion, Jesus was asked about the end times by His disciples:
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.” –Matthew 24. The key sign of the approaching end times, is deception.
“For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.” “Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect [born again Christians].”
The deception of this age will be so pervasive that if it were possible, even Bible-believing Christians could be fooled. But they will not be because the scriptures tell us that the Anti-Christ, once in full power as executive of the world government, will reveal his true nature. In addition to demanding he be worshiped, the people of the world will also have to worship Satan as well:
“And they worshipped the dragon [Satan] which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast?” — Revelation 13
This is why the Mark will be the choice to literally pledge yourself to the devil. There will be no confusion about this. And people will do this voluntarily. It may seem far-fetched now, but the devil has been using this time to bring society further from God, the Bible and righteousness, to set the stage for his False Messiah. And certainly it is entering into the culture ever so subtly. Here is a trailer for a soon to be released movie where the currency for the entire world is controlled by a mark on your hand:
By promoting the Mark of the Beast and the number 666 in pop culture, it just becomes more palatable and less of an offensive idea. And this attitude will be passed on to the younger generation who will no longer see it as a “big deal” when popular entertainers are flaunting the number of the beast for photo shoots. This type of attitude shift in society will lead people away from God and learn to accept and even enjoy blasphemy and disrespect for the Lord who created us all. People will just not take God or the state of their souls, seriously. And that is the danger today. The more of these types of anti-God seeds that can be planted the more people who will no longer see God as salvation and more as just an “idea” that needs to be rejected.
The Bible tells us that Satan is the father of lies. He knows that he is on borrowed time and that he and his false Messiah will both be destroyed by Jesus at His Second Coming. The Devil’s endgame is to destroy humanity, not liberate it. The Mark will be one of his greatest deceptions because it will lead to guaranteed damnation for those who choose to take it. And in the interim, promotion of it can help set the stage for individuals to reject the Gospel of Jesus which leads to eternal life.
And that is why we should choose God. Although we may never see the Mark, we all face the choice between siding with The Lord and choosing free forgiveness through faith in Jesus Christ, or siding with the world, or atheism, or our own idea of what is “good” and what will bring salvation. Do not be deceived. In the end there will just be two choices. And like those who will be faced with the Mark of the Beast system, the stakes, will be just as high: eternal destiny.
“I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live..” — Deuteronomy 30:19
very well written.
I believe in Jesus Christ as the savior of my life
There is no savior from here on out, the beast shall perish this world and the “Word of God” shall be soon be gone as well as the Archangels and their army of angels. Though they aren’t the only angels, Lucifer shall be the ones to destroy his fellow brothers for interfering with my lord’s plans to control this messed up world ruled by “The Word of God”
Hi Luciferion Worshiper,
Thanks for your comments. As you may guess I disagree. I would like to share some Scripture with you because you have the state of the world entirely wrong:
Notice the passage refers to Satan as “the god of this world.” This is the current state of the world. Satan is already in temporary rulership over this age. This is why there is already so much death, destruction, disease, fornication, rebellion and anti-Christian behavior in the world.
Once again, the Scriptures acknowledge that this entire world is under Satan’s influence, except for born again Christians. So we see another example of the Bible clearly confirming the Devil’s temporary authority in this age.
And here we get the really deep revelation. Satan, the “prince of the power of the air”, not only influences and tempts this world with sin, but his spirit actually works in the hearts of those who are not Christians. Those who are unsaved, like I was at one time, were under his actual spiritual influence inside of us. So you’re waiting for an era that is already here. Satan is clearly using his power in this age we are living in today. And how is this world to you? Are you enjoying life? Is this the “paradise” you’ve been waiting for? Clearly not. Because you would not be spending time on a Christian website arguing with believers in Jesus Christ. You have fully identified yourself with Lucifer and yet you’re still searching.
And I get it. You’re mad at God. Maybe you have lost a loved one. Or the feeling of being neglected or unloved. It could be abusive situations or seeing a loved one abused. There are many reasons in which we feel deeply hurt to our core. Where we question why we’re even alive if we have to feel such pain. I understand because I have been there. And the reason this world is so messed up is because of all the evil we have chosen to do. Granted, some have done much worse than us, but humanity is being judged collectively. And once sin entered the equation, humanity was separated from God and condemned to a life of pain, struggle, hurt and death. Some try to escape it, but as we can see by just looking through the tabloids, even the wealthiest, most famous celebrities are suffering despite “having it all”
But I am here to tell you that there is hope. There is redemption. There is peace and unending joy. And it does not come from Satan. The Devil’s love is harlotry. You have to give – your time, your morality, your soul, in order to receive a crumb from the one you thin is in charge. God’s love is true love. The Bible says:
While we were deep in our sin. As we walk this world angry at God, blaspheming His Holy Name and doing everything in our power to express our displeasure, Jesus Christ died for us. God did not wait for me to believe in Him to prove His love and give me His greatest gift – His own Son. This is real love. It’s not a transaction. It’s not a payment. It’s giving you love even when you do not deserve it. It’s sacrificing for you even when you worship Satan. Do not be deceived by the Devil’s tricks. He has been using the same deception on humanity for 6,000 years.
Jesus Christ said: “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” – Matthew 16:26. Satan is real. Demons are real. Fallen angels are real. But God is also real. And He created all of them. And they will be conquered by Jesus Christ. And all who have aligned themselves with the Devil will spend eternity burning in Hell and the Lake of Fire. Do not let this be you. God brought you to this site for a reason. And that reason is that He loves you and does not want you to die in your sins. Take the time to know God on His terms. Read the Bible and the Gospel with an open heart. The Bible said God “resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.” I have no doubt if you take that step, you will start to understand the true ruler of this Earth and you will be closer to experiencing true joy and happiness. -B&E
“Whosoever shall call upon the name of The Lord shall be saved.” – Romans 10:13.

jay-ar…Jesus Christ must be your LORD and Savior. All the people burning in hell right now–Jesus is their savior, too.
Mr. Lucifer Worship…this world is not ruled by the Word of God and your master Lucifer runs every aspect of world matters right very now. So you are severely turned around in your philosophy.
This is a very well done website dedicated to rebuking this demonic world system by the almighty power of the precious BLOOD of Jesus Christ.
The gates of hell shall not prevail and you workers of iniquity are running out of time.
Glory to Jehovah Most High.
Thank God for this.a lot of young pple need to hear the truth.and this is it.
Wow I must confess you make some very trenchant points.
it is a moving article, but i am so sadden by it. where do you think Hollywood gets these ideas? puts these ideas out? …in a time where we are famous-people-worshippers…
what happened to parents being the child’s idol?
what happened to our home life? a family that prays together, stays together.
ok this completley clears my mind of all ofwgkta music (except frank ocean) hes christian, but it took this article to realize what wrongness im doiing to the Lord. well im going to spread the word about this demon thanks to this website
Not to step on your toes or anything, but Frank Ocean is not a Christian. He is a homosexual and he is yoked up with non-beleivers. God calls homosexuality an abomination, meaning He finds it disgusting and hates it. Please read the book of Leviticus 18:22-24, 20:13; Roman 1:26-27; Jude 7; and Genesis 19:4-5. These verses will explain how God feels about homosexuality. Note: read the King James Version.
Frankie, your message came to my email address. Was this intentional? I just hope Chris also got the message. Good verses 🙂 I know very well how God feels about homosexuality. Of course not to the full extent. But remember, homosexuality is just a symptom of what God and all his children really hate. Sin. God bless you.
No this wasn’t intentional. I was replying to Chris’s comment. I hope he got the message also.
A homosexual can become Christian. It’s just like any other sin: forgivable by God.
Amen Gak.
Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven, belief in him only.
In what way is Frank Ocean a Christian? He spokes pot, is an unrepentant homosexual, and works with the rest of Odd Future . . .
From Wikipedia:
On July 4, 2012, Ocean published an open letter on his Tumblr blog recounting unrequited feelings he had for another young man when he was 19 years old, citing it as his first true love.[7] He used the blog to thank the man for his influence, and also thanked his mother and other friends, saying “I don’t know what happens now, and that’s alrite [sic]. I don’t have any secrets I need kept anymore…I feel like a free man.”[75] Members of the hip hop industry generally responded positively to the announcement.[76] Russell Simmons, a business magnate in the hip hop industry, wrote a congratulatory article in Global Grind saying “Today is a big day for hip-hop. It is a day that will define who we really are. How compassionate will we be? How loving can we be? How inclusive are we? […] Your decision to go public about your sexual orientation gives hope and light to so many young people still living in fear.”[77] Other artists who expressed their support included Beyoncé and Jay-Z.[78] Tyler, The Creator also tweeted his support for Ocean, along with other members of OFWGKTA.
On December 31, 2012, Ocean was pulled over in Mono County, California for speeding. In a search police officers found a small bag of marijuana. He was cited for possession, driving on a suspended license and having tinted windows.
Kind of accurate, but still misleading. The terms ‘antichrist’ and ‘antichrists’ are only used in the Bible five times (four and one respectively) and are found in four verses of the Bible, all written by the Apostle John. Those verses are II John 7, I John 2:18, I John 2:22, and I John 4:3. And since all of them discuss some aspect of theology, it is clear that the final Antichrist is mainly a religious figure. The writer of this article has tended to insert the word “antichrist” where the biblical reference clearly states “the beast”. You need to be aware that are two completely different people, the final antichrist (final suggesting that there have been many antichrists in history but this last one, the final antichrist, is the one who supports the beast and will most likely be the final pope of the Roman Catholic Church) and the beast, also known as the King of the North. Two completely different people. Given that prophecy appears to reveal that the beast, who is also the King of the North, is a European leader (perhaps German?) the mark of the beast will most likely be enforced primarily in Europe, then across those parts of the world where the beast, who is the King of the North, has power. This does not include the geographical areas where power is enforced by the other Kings of the East, West and South. It is important to note that the King of the West (America and allies) have long ceased to be of any significance in the final days. Regarding the final days, we are most certainly in them. This generation will most certainly see the end given that prophecy clearly gives warnings which have already been fulfilled. Prophecy is being fulfilled on a daily basis.
Hi Kerryn,
Thanks for your comment. I just wanted to add a few responses:
1. The Antichrist’s Name in the Bible — You cite the verses that state the word “Antichrist” and state that I am wrong for using scriptures that use other titles for him such as “the beast” since these are 2 different people. Yet you yourself, call the Antchrist, the “king of the north”, so you are violating your own rule. I would submit that Revelation 13 is indeed describing the Antichrist, even though it does not use the term “Antichrist.” From Revelation 13 we are told about the first Beast:
3And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 4And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. 8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
“The Beast” is a global ruler who will have power over every nation, be unchallenged militarily and will be worshipped by the people of the world. I believe this can only be the Antichrist being described here. I believe the name “the beast” signifies his nature and a satanic spirit that indwells him. We are told in Revelation 11 and Revelation 17 that the Beast does not come from Germany, but rather from “the bottomless pit”
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
So there is a part of the beast that is an evil spiritual being as the bottomless pit (known as tartarus and the aboussos in Greek in the New testatment) is the prison of evil spiritual beings. So I believe that the spirit of “the beast” will indwell the man who is the Antichrist for the latter half of his reign. Also note that the Bible gives the Antichrist all sorts of titles: the Son of perdition, that wicked, the idol shepherd, the man of sin, etc. Yet these verse are talking about the same person.
2. The Ethnicity of the Antichrist — The Antichrist will most certainly have to be Hebrew and claim to be part of the Messianic lineage. Otherwise, he will have no relevance to the nation of Israel. What must not be forgotten is that the end times are centered on Israel and Jerusalem. Jesus already prophesied that: “43 I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.” (John 5). Israel will receive another as the Messiah, but do this in error. This is the Antichrist, who will confirm a covenant with Israel and be received as the Savior. This is the Antichrist’s main purpose. So he will have to be ethnically Jewish in order to fulfill this. Here is another verse I believe looks to this day:
25 And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end,
26 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him. (Ezekiel 21)
Notice the ‘wicked prince of Israel’ will be in power at a time when “iniquity shall have an end,” which indicated this is an end times prophecy. The Lord says his crown and diadem will be removed — this shows that this prince will be both a political AND religious ruler (just like the beast is described in Revelation 13). He wears both. Yet God Himself will remove this wicked prince and will give the crown and diadem to the one who truly deserves it – Jesus Christ, who after the Antichrist is defeated and destroyed, will rule and reign as King and High Priest from Jerusalem for the Millennium. God bless.
“Beginning and End”, for your own gain, I strongly urge you to read Kerryn’s comment again.
Hi NeilofSWC,
What is it that you are implying? Please feel free to share your thoughts on Kerryn’s comments. I’d be glad to discuss them. God bless.
You implied that Kerryn called the Antichrist the king of the north when she did not. Kerryn was referring to the beast.
Hi Neil — My main point was that the Antichrist and the Beast are the same person. They are just 2 different titles. Like the true Christ, Jesus The Lord, the Antichrist has many different titles in Scripture.
Oh okay. That makes more sense. Thank you for explaining that.
You are absolutely right scripturally Beginning And End.
The Pope, who is a powerful worldwide political and religious figure, will not be the man of sin or anti-christ. He is the false prophet of Revelation 16:13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. (The devil’s trinity)
Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
I have been taught also that Antichrist also means Instead of Christ, rather than against Christ. That meaning already fits
amen
this was very touching and made me cry for i can see what the devil is trying to make the youth device and believe in. God brought me to this web site today to view his message and he (God) was right about it all.
Juan
Take comfort in this
Revelation 22:12-16
12 “Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”
14 Blessed are those who wash their robes,[a] so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates. 15 Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
16 “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.”
I just think its so sad that alot of the younger generations(Im only 33) may not make it. I try to tell my younger cousins or nieces and nephews about whats goin on in the world and of course they think im crazy or a conspiracy theorist(because I tell them the truth-about the NWO,alien deception,bad economy, entertainment, drugs and alcohol, mind control, etc). Satan is very good at what he does, cause it is definitely working. When my eyes were 1st open i almost lost faith(in jesus(not god)-cause i could never be an atheist), The devil almost fooled me, but I just continued to pray for for the real truth. The only reason I almost lost faith in Jesus is because all of the worlds religions has a jesus type figure which is a archetype. So I thought for a moment that all religions were made up, but I still believed in God, which made it even more confusing and difficult to figure everything out. Thanking God and Jesus for sending me to your site and others(vigilant citizen). Unfornately there is a lot of sites with a lot of disinformation agents working hard(which is why i was confused for a short time-because I just didnt know what to believe).
thank you may god bless all of yous i will pray for u and yours lol
I would like to learnmore about the mark of the beast.
Oh My God!!! God please save us wipe away ignorance from us. i actually watched that movie “in time” but I didn’t realize this until now. My God thank you for opening my eyes
Praise The Lord! I pray God continues to give you revelation and insight from His Word.
this iS an amazing truth. God bless you.and give you more revelation..amen
that 6336 advert was disturbing man,
you can even hear hidden reverse messages while the people talked.
im outhere in Colombia where the devil has taken over is crazy how 13 year old kids are killing like crazy doing drugs and all tha but one thing is 4 sure we have options but we so blinded by materialism and goverments that the option is almost like it wasnt there follow your heart or follow your demon
Ha Ha Ha, Christianity meets Numerology. Crackpot garbage, 666 has no power nor is there any evil connected. Artists and writers use such symbolism for generating illogical controversy. They know that Crackpots like B&E will give them free advertising.
Yes, B&E and his rot is bad for Christianity. Jesus Christ never told us to create and push illogical conspiracy theories and promote artists who are anti-Christian.
Christians are meant to turn the other cheek and ignore those that trespass against Jesus, B&E promotes them by protesting about them. B&E is playing into the hands of those he calls antichrist.
The best promotion an average artist can get is controversy. Controversy will often sell far more of an artists work than would be sold on just their talent.
This is the reason music and movie artists are deliberately using Anti-Christian symbolism.
If we just ignore them and not give them advertising like B&E and his idiotic type, they would not be making any controversy and thus not receive the free advertising that they get on such websites as this one.
Yes, pretending to be EVIL makes artists money from free promotions from protesters.
Most if the artists themselves are not evil, it’s just what their promoters know will create controversy and thus sell!
If we don’t give them protests and they don’t succeed in using evil to get free publicity like here.
Likely such symbolism will disappear from the media.
They will likely start using anti-Islamic symbolism as they know Muslims cannot turn the other cheek.
Yes, they will leave Jesus alone.
In Jesus Christ! 😉
Goida-, I know I’m kind of getting in late and “after the fact” on this discussion, but let me see if I’m getting this right. You’re saying the best way to combat the obvious and rampant satanic influences that this author is so pain-stakingly pointing out to the readers of this website is to just “lay down and play dead” and hope that it just goes away? The Bible compares the Christian walk to being engaged in battle. Ephesians 6:10-17 doesn’t sound like “just ignoring it” to me. And although all but one of the symbolic instruments for battle represent defense (armor), the main weapon is very offensive (the Sword of the Spirit-the Holy Word of God) .That tells me that as Christians we are to be on the offensive against the forces of Satan and his mentions and I believe that is just what B&E is doing by calling the readers’ attention to these frightening facts and fluently and accurately applying Scripture to back up his statements. Keep up the good work and God bless you and your efforts, B&E.
God bless you for being so clear and consise with your analysis — I am glad to have found your site!!
Thanks very much Jessica. Praise Jesus that this site has been a blessing to you. God bless!
To me, I believe the mark is not physical but, a mark in a sense of what you think and believe (head) and what you do (the hand)
The world revolves around economic status, people are forced to buy and sell as a means to survive. People are forced to work to buy and sell, they are educated into believing in currency is the only way forward, the only way to live happily, we are taught money makes us powerful, respected, worthy of happiness etc and to keep this in motion we must buy and sell. We are taught without it, we will all fall into complete destitution.
Everyone has the mark unless completely disowns the beliefs (head) and deeds (hand) of survival by giving it all up and living off the land, no more buying, no more selling no more a part of the economic lie made by man (number 6)
3 man self made leaders 6 – 6 – 6 ? – Monarchy? Government? Bankers? All control us in ways we do not think of but, all are the richest and most powerful men on Earth. They make laws, demand we have this or that to live on, pay themselves hefty wages, actually thrive on buying and selling.
Just a thought
But if we rapture in the 7 chapter then as Christians we would not have to worry about that correct
Hi Joey,
Yes, you are correct. The Church will be Raptured before the Antichrist steps into power and the implementation of the Mark of the Beast.
I just wanna say thank you for confirming what I already knew I just wish more people would believe and pay more attention because this stuff is real and people need to wake up Again thanks a lot and GOD BLESS
I just wanted to say that I am truly awakened by this article and inspired to spread the word of God. B&E’s analysis and everyone’s comments on this website have changed my perspective entirely and I am grateful for that.
Just reading through the comments and all I have to say is typical Christian nonsense (not the article, some of these comments).
Quoting the bible to people who don’t believe the bible in order to change their mind about the bible is just flat stupid.
Lastly, you Christians are always having biblical debates and fights publicly in comments sections such as these…it’s seems as though you can’t even agree on your own book. Ever wonder why you have over a hundred different denominations? It’s because you all can’t agree on what your book even means.
Im pretty sure that God meant enemies as in humans because even though we are all brothers and are supposed to love each other we consider people to be our enemies and that’s if you don’t know it already a counterattack. Instead of the devil fighting with us he makes us fight with each other. And quoting the joker its just another form of how the world see itself. No matter how good you are you still have something evil inside you and that view is wrong because God don’t do uncomplete jobs if He says I will restore your heart be sure He will. Everything around us today is showing how humanity is turning against God. Every prophecy is being fulfilled. We are in the final days and what are we gonna do? Just live our lives like nothing is happening? Or are we gonna take matters into our hands and preach the Word of God because that’s what we can do, am I wrong? We are supposed to do it anyways but instead we are not. We don’t judge because our mission is to spread the world of God not to turn people against it. Remember my brothers and sisters Jesus came to help the sick!
Thank you that we have out there those who are still bold to discuss issues that others consider a “no go area”. Keep up the good work you are doing. He that has ears let him hear. DENYING JESUS AND EXALTING SATAN IS A REVIVED MODERN CULTURE THAT BRING MANY TO THE LIMELIGHT AND FAME APPROVED BY THE WORLD. It has only one purpose spearheaded by the DEVIL himself, to bring them to eternal doom. My prayer is that God will through His Holy Spirit open their eyes and save them from eternal damnation.
Amen Raphelibe. And thanks for the encouraging words. God bless. -B&E

Although you have some good points there are 2 beasts the first in Rev is the polical or one world system and the second is satan himself he has many names and offices. Michael and his angels cast him out of heaven Rev 12:7-8.If people would read the bible with understanding they wouldn’t be misled
Once again I end up reading one of these damn articles
