Revelation 13:16-17 (KJV)
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.

You have changed the wording, it says ‘ on their right hand and upon their forehead ‘ it does not say ‘ In ‘ ……..

What translation do you reference as "ON"?

I clicked on the link that was on the OP - just presumed it was the right translation because it on the link, just checked its the American standard …

I believe it to be on the right hand or on the forehead, not in.

Differing translations I guess. However, I think on is the appropriate translation as you really cannot stick anything in your forehead.

Also was just thinking recently, it's a mark, how can it be a microchip?

There are some VERY tiny microchips.

We do, but I still believe the correct rendering to be on, not in. No matter how tiny the chip, the forehead is not a good spot to put said chip.

I also think Josho is correct as it's a mark, not a chip. So it'll be some sort of tattoo.

If it comes to that, I guess I will no longer get vaccinated. However, right now that isn't the case.

Of course not, isn't that what every Christian should be against and fight it if they make it mandatory, even if having to die if he or she refuses the mark of the beast?
