how can posting scriptures be dead wrong lol ... scripture is scripture unless you do not believe in the scripture
Quoting: ThePatriotMindAnd he (the anti-Christ) causeth all, both small and great,
rich and poor, free and bond,
to receive a mark in their right hand,
or in their foreheads: [Rev. 13:16]
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. [Rev. 13:17]
Please note that Revelation 13:16 of the KJV says "...to receive a mark in their right hand or in their forehead." It does not say on!
Quoting: ThePatriotMindActually, you are wrong here as well.
The original Aramaic could be translated as "in" or as "on".
The Mark will probably be an implanted chip (thus “in”), but we must not get locked into that thought as the only possible one. It could easily be something “on” the right hand or forehead, such as a tattoo or UPC scan code.
The Bible prophesies of an event before the Mark of the Beast called the Rapture. When the Lord Jesus Christ will call out or "rapture" all the truly saved people.
Quoting: ThePatriotMindFor the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1 Corinthians 15:51-52
One day, one night, very soon, millions around the globe will suddenly disappear. Loved ones, friends, children, spouses, neighbors will suddenly vanish. Chaos and fear will plague the streets.
Quoting: ThePatriotMindA pre-Tribulation 'Rapture' is an absolute FALSE teaching and is in no way supported by scripture!
Read the bold part of the scripture you used as "evidence" of your rapture, does that sound like a secret appearance of God where he takes away millions?
The scriptures you quoted are referring to God's return
on the last day!You need to stop listening to false teachers and study the scriptures for yourself.
The 'Rapture' is a LIE and is part of the deception.
And he (the anti-Christ) causeth all, both small and great,
rich and poor, free and bond,
to receive a mark in their right hand,
or in their foreheads: [Rev. 13:16]
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. [Rev. 13:17]
Quoting: ThePatriotMindThis is the most common error spoken by those who do not know the scriptures.
There is no "he" nor an "anti-Christ"!
First of all, the term anti-Christ is not used anywhere in the Book of Revelation.
It is not used because John is not referring to a person.
This is another part of the Great Deception; getting people to incorrectly watch for this single person to rise to power and take control; the so-called anti-Christ.
There is no such person!John only writes about the "Beast". The Beast is not a person, but a government.
While people are ignorantly watching and waiting for this mythical anti-Christ figure to rise up, the real Beast is being built around them in the form of world government.
There will be no single anti-Christ figure!This lie has been perpetuated for generations, but it is in no way what the scriptures teach.
In the original Aramaic, the term transliterated as "he" is more correctly interpreted "it".
The Mark of the Beast will be an identification for the final world government; an all-in-one wonder tag that holds all of a persons data (an ID/ATM card).
However, again, the scriptures do not in any way refer to any single person that takes control of the world; there is no anti-Christ!
This is one of the devil's most successful lies. He has the world waiting for some charismatic super man to rise up so we can all point to him and say "there he is, the anti-Christ!", but this will never happen.
The Beast is the final world government and it will be controlled by several evil people, not one individual anti-Christ.
Most people are fooled by this because they have never read the Book of Revelation. They only have listened to the false teachings of people who want to promote the lie, or ignorant teachers who believed the lie when it was taught to them.
Read the Book of Revelation and you will clearly understand that John is not warning about any one person in any way.
There will be no anti-Christ! – stop watching and waiting for him and look around at what is really happening!--------------------
As I wrote originally, your words regarding the RFID as a forerunner to the eventual Mark of the Beast is mostly correct; however, you are dangerously and carelessly wrong regarding your other false interpretations.
- There is no pre-Tribulation rapture (part of the Great Decetion).
- There is no anti-Christ person (part of the Great Deception).
- The Beast of Revelation is the final world government, not a person.
- The world government “Beast” will have many leaders, not one “anti-Christ” ruler.
- The Mark of the Beast could be “in” or “on”.
Stop listening to false teachers. Study the scriptures and learn for yourself.
