Real ID – Mark of the Beast?
I got a kick out of the subtle irony of the article
“Real ID to Double as Credit Card! Low APR!” The best line:
“George Orwell
is not only rolling in his grave, he is doing the worm.” But then, as I thought some more, I almost cried.
I grew up in Southern Idaho, a place where idealism and individualism are hallmarks of real manhood. The thought that the government might unjustly usurp a bit of personal freedom was heresy.
Some old farmers we knew were convinced that the Social Security Number was the “mark of the beast” mentioned in Bible
(Revelations 13:16-17): “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: 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.”
They predicted that the day would soon come when the government would have such
control over the economic system that “no man might buy or sell” without using his social security number. The government would ask people to voluntarily have the SSN tattooed “in their right hand,” but if they refused, the government would forcibly tattoo their SSN “in their foreheads.”
I pooh-poohed the concept then. But now we see Real ID emerging, maybe they weren’t far off.
Tag: Identity
Whether your Christian or not, you’ve got to admit that the prophacies are really really accurate. If your a Christian they reinforce your faith, if your not they just kinda freak you out. Either way, we’ve gone from SSN’s being the mark, to Barcodes being the mark, and now possibly RFID.
Its really sad. Who would think that we’d live in an age where we’d think that such an idea is a good one? But tagging our children for tracking now actually seems like a good idea to some people (GPS) and we’ve all heard the consipiracy theory stuff about translucent submutanious ink that doesn’t show that freak out people too.
I dunno, maybe Real ID is a step in that direction, maybe its not. Either way, you’ve got to admit that for a guy (John) living 2,000 years ago he sure had a solid grasp on modern technology.
Comment by anon on May 27, 2005 at 9:52 amI have a plaque on my desk enscribed with these words from Abraham Lincoln, “Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves, and, under a just God cannot long retain it.”
Perhaps the slavery he fought was more overt. The principle still holds true.

Comment by Mark Dixon on May 27, 2005 at 10:11 amI consider myself as a strong christian and I am very concerned with the way things are going worldwide. I do beleive that we are close to Armageddon. I do not know how long it will be, but I do know that a lot of prophacies are being fufilled at a very alarming rate. examples are The sunami,Our kids being shot up with chips in their hands, The massive earth quakes, the war in Iraq (Which is the old city of Babalon), The hurricaines and last but not least the slow removole of christ from our society. So I ask you today are we really better off without christ. I THINK NOT

Comment by A.Nur on August 8, 2007 at 3:11 pmThe christian faith is stollen by Avangelicals.They change the Bible the way they want and forgot the Gods way.Few Jewish
hiding behind the Avangelicals destroyed the Christan Faith.
God will punish the Chaeters.
We have learned that several million Christians failed to vote in this last election. I have also learned that the end times doomsday theology has a great influence into the mindset of many Christians today. A christian church having nearly a million members is claiming that December 14th will be the beginning of the tribulation period, and the trump will sound. I tried hard to influence a such people to vote this year! Why would they not want to vote? It was a contradiction to their religious convictions when according to them, America has already been judged by God.
Why not vote?
What was their hang up? Why vote if Christian’s are caught up in a rapture to heaven, and when the anti Christ will dominate the world anyway according to prophecy? The most frightening thing coming is the popular 2012 date set for the rapture spreading anticipation like wild fire! It may draw many more Christians into a doomsday mentality, potentially hurting the next election much more so.
The conservative balance of power may be determined by such critical voters who may yet determine America’s future. We need all christians to stay loyal to America, not the Rapture! What is wrong with this anti-christ beast theory? Look at Waco Texas, and David Koresh, and Jim Jones, and others. What happens when normal human beings are drawn into abnormal behavior by strong religious convictions coming from a doomsday theology! This hidden enemy exists within our conservative center, and it may already be doing far more harm than the liberal media has done to conservative causes. Did you hear about the christian in Idaho who cut off his right hand after supposing that the government had planted a chip into him?
Revelation 15:2 clearly states that the mark of the beast is something Christians must personally overcome to gain the victory through the blood of the lamb? This description and obvious wording in the Bible seem to identify mans fallen nature, not some computer implant which many wrongly speculate. Did Christ die for our sins, or did he die for computer implants? Is this not a ridiculous theology which millions of Christians have fallen for?.Lets list some rational truth’s concerning this subject taken directly from the Bible.
The mark originated with Cain, in the Old Testament. Cain killed his brother Abel and sought to cover his sin by hiding his murderous crime. God asked Cain,where is thy brother? Cain said, I know not, am I my brothers keeper? Cain was marked after becoming the the example of satanic behavior God detests.
God then cursed the works of Cain’s hand’s, the ground he tilled no longer brought forth her strength. In other word’s, a bad economy then followed the mark. Can we not identify this mark as Gods curse upon Cain’s right handed works? Why? Cain had yielded himself to Satan’s power by failing to bring forth good fruits, breaking Gods commandments.
It was Satan who was symbolized in the Bible as being the cursed beast (the Serpent) in the Garden of Eden. A type of snake bite, a beastly mark identifying the sin nature which Satan injected into mans heart, was being depicted as the mark of sin.
Later we learn in the New Testament that people who follow Cain like nature are also called beasts. “Jude 1.
The Bible gives us an even clearer example of this mark when Joseph’s brothers sought to kill Joseph, and sell him as a slave into Egypt. The brothers then hid this sin from Jacob, their father. How? By killing a wild beast and placing an animal’s blood upon Joseph’s coat of many colors. How? By using an actual beasts bloodstain as if it belong to Joseph.. The brothers then lied to Jacob, by showing Jacob Joseph’s coat with a marked bloodstain. They told Jacob that Joseph was killed by a wild beast. This false evidence convinced Jacob that his only birthright son was dead. This was the secret plan Jacob did not know. It was a mark upon Joseph’s coat which was actually "the mark of the beast” and not coming from Josephs torn body .
The mark of the beast becomes a deception which hides and removes Gods will by replacing it with Satan’s deception and plan. It was Gods will that Joseph become the birthright son. Suddenly, Joseph is removed from sight by the hidden cover up, The mark of a wild beast literally hid the lie, and removed true authority.
The brothers had sold Joseph to the Egyptians for money. Thus, buying and selling the beastly mark through deception for worldly gain. The interpretation of an anti Christ is to remove Christ’s will, and then replace it with the mark of the beast, or Satan’s power. God was being sold out through the lie, coming from a secret combination.
When Nebuchadnezzar forced the world to worship his golden God in Babylon, he used the power of the state to replace the true authority by again using a calculated manufactured lie.
King Nebuchadnezzar also used Gold (money) to build his God, selling out the value of worshiping the true God. Again, replacing Christ’s will with Satan’s deceptive mark. Babylon today represents any government or spiritual system which rewards selfishness by removing the true God.
After Nebuchadnezzar imposed his sin of pride using his political authority, God cursed Nebuchadnezzar transforming him into the nature of a wild beast. (Read Daniel chapter four.) Nebuchadnezzar was marked like unto Cain, removed from men, acting inhuman like a wild beast.
In other word’s, Babylon is a state of mind which destroys our humanity!
Nebuchadnezzar finally repented after going through a terrible withdrawal process for 7 years, removing him from his evil addiction for power. The 666 number in scripture clearly identifies Nebuchadnezzar’s golden statue by its dimensions and exact size. The statue was gold, which represents Nebuchadnezzar himself who became the image of the golden statue, as recorded by Daniel. “Daniel 2.” King Nebuchadnezzar was literally the 600 BC man. The entire ancient world represented his power given to one single man marking 600 B.C.in history.
His giant golden image was carefully measured and recorded by Daniel as being 60 cubits high and 6 cubits wide. “Daniel 3:1″. This biblical event marked the Babylonian attempt to replace God with a six hundred and three score, and six man. The 600 BC man was Nebuchadnezzar himself, being enlarged into a huge statue almost a hundred feet tall. Babylon is about a little man trying to become a great big man using earthly political means.
The world did not have the modern media in Nebuchadnezzar’s day to make him self larger than life. This huge golden image represents a man seeking to reach notoriety and Godly status by becoming larger, more visible to the world. This explains why John would instructs believers to count the number of the beast, to find the hidden man. Is the true measure of a man not measured by his inflated image to be seen by men, revealing his beastly pride? Or, is that not the measure of the beastly side which hides his true image!
The true measure of the man is being obscured from view Nebuchadnezzar’s false image was 666. “Daniel: 3-1″.
The true man was hidden from our view by sin until he became humble. “Daniel 4" "Revelation 13:18." In other words, you can find the answer to the world’s greatest Bible mystery 666, directly recorded inside your very own family Bible. The search is now over…
God actually frees the beast of Babylon from his evil mark after Nebuchadnezzar repents. Evil men today are seeking to remove our God given freedoms by replacing “one nation under God” with state supported socialism. why? In order to make slaves of free Americans. It is not the same spirit of Babylon returning to us again today. Fallen man is still seeking to make his worldly image large in order to remove God, replacing God with a god of gold, purchased with our own money by state decree. The new god becomes mans exalted authority being granted through the state and not God.. Remember Moses and the golden calf image represented a beast God in Moses day! The golden beast was created by collecting the people’s own wealth.
Once again, they are setting up another God of gold using our money to pay for it. Why? Is it not to going to force Americans to worship this golden God of the state? Or become fired, exiled, or destroyed through the power of political correctness? No man or women will be able to buy nor sell, or hold a job, unless they contribute to this god of Babylon being forced through higher taxation, personal loyalty and sacrifice. We now witness a state, growing within a state, within our nation.
Look at the bailouts and the national debt being the taken from us to create Babylon’s God. No one is calling for legal hearings to place Kriss Dodd and Barney Frank in prison after they created this world economic crisis. Instead, They with their friends have been placed in charge of this bail out money and our economy…Every man, every women, and every child born today, including the unborn, must pay for an out of control national debt bringing America into a modern Babylonian bondage. Untold billions of our money must transfer directly into these social democrats hands transforming America into a predatory beast. The secret plan must hide their goal to change America into a new nation under their god. This god of money now becomes the new savior of America through a government bail out as our salvation. This is the true anti Christ that no one yet is looking for already happening directly in front of us..
It is another god of gold, like unto the 666 god in 600 BC! This god is now being constructed for the salvation of Americans who are being forced to worship its image, and make huge sacrifices unto it.
"All small and great, rich and poor," must sacrifice for the god of this new change… Remember Obama, declaring that all Americans must sacrifice for his image for change? The change is a lie, it is a beast which seeks to make us into its slave.! We are now changing America into the modern beast of Babylon, being robbed of our own right hand works, our own money as its sacrifice. This has been made possible through calculated lies planted within our own foreheads or our deceived minds.
What kind of evil beast has entered into over half of America’s foreheads, or intellects, causing them to vote for the institution of their own slavery? Millions of votes cast against a free America? It was surely an evil beast which deceived their minds through calculated lies being orchestrated from the politically correct media.
The mark of America’s power comes directly from which votes are being marked on ballets, the peoples right handed works represent their spiritual mindset going on inside their thoughts or in their foreheads. A mark represents a goal, or end destination like a map. There are two marks from the Bibles beginning, the tree of life, and the tree of good and evil in the Garden of Eden. God’s true followers were marked with Gods name in their foreheads, and right hands, according to John. Revelation 22:4. Was Jesus ever going to use computer implants to mark his followers? The mark of God, and the mark of Satan clearly represent a spiritual identification being witnessed through the person’s spiritual mindset, and also by our outward behavior manifesting through our right handed works. Who do we serve? Babylon represents Satan’s government of slavery, and Zion represents Christ’s free form of government.
Which of the mindsets are we being marked into, becomes the final question?
We must awaken Christians to this lie about computer implants being spread by Left behind books. Why? These popular books focus Christians on doomsday instead of helping God unite his servants to work the final harvest. We can now see why the harvest is great, but the workers are few!There is a huge spiritual distraction going on about a rapture. There is a reason Christ never wanted us to know the day, nor the hour of his coming. Look at Waco Texas and David Koresh? Look at our last two elections when 4 to 5 million Christians stayed home. Look at the bad fruits coming from the teachings being spread from the most popular Christian book sold today called "Left behind! " These teachings help Satan by neutralizing Christian’s spiritual resolve! More than anything the liberal media has yet accomplished. I need your help to challenge this doomsday theology before it becomes a bigger monster in 2012. In the next four years this anticipation about the end of the world may destroy our conservative and Christian unity. People blindly follow a teaching not coming from God nor the Bible.
Please help us get a new biblical understanding to as many Christians as possible. Why? Millions have become deceived by thousands of money grabbing preachers who have downloaded the wrong understanding of the mark of the beast into their foreheads! These deceived Christians are still waiting for a computer chip implant to bring in the rapture. This is happening when the mark of slavery is already coming upon them.
It is always important to provide another alternative view for people in order to challenge something like this, rather than let it run wild. We need every christian to vote in future elections, and not allow such apocolyptic distractions to dominate their hearts in 2012.
