The 666 mark will be a tattoo

[MatthewG]

Consider Gen 15.13 to 16 as another option.

I don't think I have to.

"Any interpretation that strays too far from the biblical context can only be regarded as urban legend..."

Save he(666) who can't buy or sell....

Here's buying and selling, my point is, it describes buying the knowledge of the Bible, and selling the knowledge of the Bible, some people can't get the knowledge of the Bible, Some people are unable to impart biblical knowledge, and this is already a fact that is happening in this world

Matthew 13:44-46 (WEB):

(44) “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.

(45) “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
(46) who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought

People have got to warned over this...

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.
18 Here 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. - Revelation 13

I am the 666

It would maybe be a good idea to find out why the Jews then did not recognize Jesus as Messiah. Though we know many did because all of his Disciples were Jews.

And research to find out from Jews why Jews today don't recognize Jesus as Messiah.

Possibly God has hardened the heart for a time.

 

[Wish-it]

I don't think I have to.

So be it.

 

[pandaflower]

Possibly God has hardened the heart for a time.

Sure. But there are other reasons .

 

[soberxp]

Sure. But there are other reasons.

They don't ask for one true God, they ask for the something else......

 

[pandaflower]

They don't ask for one true God, they ask for the something else......

I don't know what that means.

 

[Rockerduck]

You have to willing take the Mark of the beast. You can refuse it. Rev 20:4

 

[soberxp]

I don't know what that means.

Isn't that what it means?










(The hypocritical scribes and Pharisees' fabricated fictions)

 

[Deleted member 26788]

[pandaflower]

I am the 666

Then Admin should ban you.

I wonder if the mark could be explained as an act of devotion given to the state/country or to the symbol of the state/country, the flag of which ever country it signifies. there is the pledge of allegiance ,right hand over the heart looking at the flag marking them as patriots or the at attention salute . not going to say what other country's do yet i suspect its similar. then there's the mater of two masters , which one will you really fallow ?

 

[Exegesis]

....the mark will be the credit card...

...this will be a scanable tattoo...

According to Revelation, those with the Mark are immortal:

Revelation 9:6 - "And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them."

How exactly does this 'credit card/tattoo' make one immortal?

 

[TribulationSigns]

Okay. Thank you for your response; just sharing with you.

What are you’re thoughts other than I’m wrong on that?

Do you see revelation as future or? A historical continuation?

Its simple really...

The scriptures clearly declared the kingdom was taken from them of God with the death of Christ (because of their rejection of Messiah the Prince). The 70 AD theorists imply it was taken by the Romans in 70 AD. The saints knew Jerusalem was left desolate when Christ died, which was long before 70 AD. The theorists think that the Romans did it, not understanding the true nature of the Kingdom, Covenant with Israel, nor their real desolation. Reading but not understanding the true import of the bondwoman being cast out with her children, and that was not in 70 AD.

Galatians 4:22-25

• "For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
• But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
• Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
• For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children."

That Jerusalem in bondage was the congregation of national Israel, who were left in bondage to Satan by rejecting the cornerstone, Christ. It seems the 70 AD theorists don't understand allegories, even though they say they do, they completely miss the mark in looking for carnal, or earthly fulfillments of things that are spiritually fulfilled. It wasn't talking about bondage or slavery, or captivity to the Romans, but to Satan for not knowing the time of their visitation.

Also, there is another of the many inconsistencies with the prophecy (Matthew 24:21) and the 70 AD theory where Preterism declares the great tribulation of saints took place in 70 AD. Not only that, but that it was such as was not since the beginning of this world to that time, nor ever would be--as "required" by the Matthew 24 prophecy. An astounding declaration that it itself should invalidate the 70 AD theory. Period! This is also why Partial Preterists (and whatever other name they give themselves , including so-called amillennialists) divide the same verse into two different eras "because" they know it is inconsistent otherwise, and so they attempt to separate what is obviously a narrative of those same days.

Matthew 24:29

• "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:"

Full Praeterists at least confess it's one era and at least admit this all happened long ago. By contrast, the Partial Preterist theorists and others calling themselves Futurists, Amillennialists, Postmillennialists, Premillennialists, and such, do all sorts of exegetical and hermeneutical gymnastics in a vain attempt to get around this clear passage. That "immediately" after the tribulation of those days the sun be darkened, when the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken, they struggle to account for. This prophecy can be one of two things. The fall of the National Israel as the "representation" of the Kingdom of God on earth at the death of Christ, or the fall of the New Testament church as spiritually Babylon of Revelation 18. Neither of which took place in 70 AD!!!

Revelation 9:6 - "And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them."

How exactly does this 'credit card/tattoo' make one immortal?

First, what death is it that these men seek but cannot find it? What is this death exactly that they desire to have?

People have got to warned over this...

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.
18 Here 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. - Revelation 13

Really? You may read Revelation 13, but do you truly understand what the Lord is saying in verses 16–18? Why did God specifically warn about receiving the mark on the right hand, instead of left? How about the forehead? Why those locations? You can’t buy or sell without it—buy or sell what? Food? A home? A car? Or is there something much deeper that God is pointing to?

Also ,before you jump to the number 666, understand this: it takes the wisdom of Christ to rightly discern what He is revealing here. That’s where your focus should be FIRST.

So instead of simply telling people, “Read Revelation 13:16–18,” tell us—what do you truly believe those verses mean? What has the Lord shown you to see if you have wisdom of Christ.

I hope you won't be leaning on YouTube theories, popular prophecy teachers' books, or magazine articles. Speak from the Word—and from understanding led by the Holy Spirit (aka wisdom).

Let's hear this from you.

Selah.

Ummmm
Just in case you FORGOT....

If you claim to know God but hate your brother, the truth is not you.

Just saying....

False accusation. But no surprise—truth often offends those who resist it.

You quote Scripture about "hating your brother," but do you even understand what that means in context? Hint: it’s not disagreement, correction, or boldly speaking truth. In fact, what you’re calling “hate” is actually love—because real love tells the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable (Ephesians 4:15).

What’s really happening here is that you’re offended by the truth I testified to—truth you refuse to receive because you lack the love of the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:10). So instead of examining your heart, you throw out lazy accusations of “hate.”

Classic deflection.

If calling out deception and urging people to seek God’s wisdom makes me guilty of “hate,” then I suppose Jesus and the apostles were haters too.

Just saying…
