Is the Human Implanted Chip the Mark of the Beast? Read the above link and let me know what you think?

Orates

When they first came out with the chip for human implantation, it was called digital angel, the logo on their website was 3 angels who upside down formed a 666. The chip can already be used for financial transactions and if you get lost, they can track you down. A few years ago they announced the construction of a plant in China that could produce "billions" of chips per year.

It would not in the least bit surprise me to see this forced on everybody in a crisis situation, whether real or invented. It certainly is a possibility, but I wouldn't take it for a million dollars.

I don't think it will ever be mandatory. It will be voluntary just like your social security number. If it was forced on you against your will, how could God hold you accountable for receiving one? But there will be monetary benefits for accepting one, just like there is for accepting the social security number. In the beginning, the social security number was completely voluntary and carried a stamp that stated "not to be used for identification purposes". Now you can't hardly buy or sell, work or drive without one.

Don, you're so right. Whatever "the mark" turns out to be, it will have to be something you can choose or not choose as that is our free will at work. Good point! :-)

I believe the mark of the beast is the nature. The bible says that you cannot buy or sell if you do not have the mark. That is the nature of business, to buy and sell and make a profit.
We know that the whore rides upon the beast. And something about the merchants and the kings committing fornication with Babylon and the inhabitants of the earth becoming drunk with the wine of her fornication.
Fornication could be like in a business selling cars, 'roll 'em in and move 'em out.'
The wine would be the profit, the money made.
The mark of the beast might be the defining nature. What would be the mark of the beast with seven heads and ten horns rising out of the sea? This particular beast can run fast (a leopard), is protective (a bear), and roars like a lion, and has the power of Satan and the position of authority.
That's a start.

O, what do I think about the chip?
There are people on this earth who do not care a thing about the bible or eternal life or anything having to do with heaven. Like this past walkout by the immigrants, it just deflects the formation in the brain of any defense against the darkness. The images are put into the brain by the media and the images become the focal point of discussion. 'Thou shalt not make for thee any graven image of any thing in heaven or on earth so as to bow down and worship.'
