The Mark of the Beast

“Whom shall he teach knowledge?  and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?….For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a

little, and there a little.” ~ Isaiah 28:9-10

“Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.” ~ Daniel 7:23

“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. 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.” ~ Revelation 13:15-17

“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.” ~ Revelation 14:9-11

“And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.” ~ Revelation 16:2

“And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.” ~ Revelation 19:20

“And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.” ~ Revelation 15:2-3

“And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.” ~ Revelation 20:4

“And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the Lord’s law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought thee out of Egypt.” ~ Exodus 13:9 (This verse was referring to the Feast of Unleavened Bread and the Passover)

This is a mark in your conscience.  It involves your mind, your thoughts, and the obedience of your thoughts.  If you choose to believe in the laws that man will institute (through the Beast System) even though they contradict the Laws and Commandments of God, you have taken the Mark of the Beast in your forehead.

This is a mark in your actions.  It involves what you become obedient to.  If you don’t believe in the laws of man that are coming (through the Beast System)-which will contradict God’s Commandments, but in order to avoid conflict you go along with these man-made laws so as to not stick out, you will receive the Mark of the Beast in your hand.

You will be forced to disobey the laws of the Beast Government

You will lose the right to buy or sell

You will lose your place in society

You will suffer persecution and possible death

“And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.” ~ Revelation 7:2-3

“And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar. And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer’s inkhorn by his side; And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.  And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:” ~ Ezekiel 9:2-5

“And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.” ~ Revelation 9:3-5

Moved Sabbath to Sunday (Sun Worship Day)- Changing the 4th Commandment

Ended the Holy Feasts of God- Replaced them with Christmas, Good Friday & Easter- Both rooted in Paganism from Ancient Babylon

Removed the 2nd Commandment of God Completely- Instituted idol worship world-wide

Established Infant Baptism, ConfirmationAssumed authority to forgive sinsEnded recognition of the Food Laws of GodEstablished Intercessions for the DeadAssigning “Holy” status to church leaders

“Sunday is our mark of authority. . .the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact” ~ Catholic Record of London, Ontario Sept 1,1923

“The Sunday…is purely a creation of the Catholic Church.” ~ American Catholic Quarterly Review, January 1883

“Sunday…It is the law of the Catholic Church alone…” ~ American Sentinel (Catholic) June 1893

“The authority of the church could therefore not be bound to the authority of the Scriptures, because the Church had changed the Sabbath into Sunday, not by command of Christ, but by its own authority.” ~ Canon and Tradition, p. 263

“Sunday is a Catholic institution and its claim to observance can be defended only on Catholic principles …. From beginning to end of Scripture there is not a single passage that warrants the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first.“ ~ Catholic Press, Sydney, Australia, August, 1990

“The Bible says, Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day. The Catholic church says, No! By my divine power I abolish the Sabbath day, and command you to keep the first day of the week. And lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic church!” ~ Father Enright, C.S.S.R. of the Redemptoral College, Kansas City, History of the Sabbath, p. 802.

“It has served us well, this myth of Christ” ~ Pope Leo X

“It was the Catholic church which…has transferred this rest to Sunday in remembrance of the resurrection of our Lord. Therefore the observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the (Catholic) church.” ~ St. Catherine Church Sentinel, Algonac, Michigan, May 21, 1995.

“The primitive Christians did keep the Sabbath of the Jews;..therefore the Christians for a long time together, did keep their conventions on the Sabbath, in which some portion of the Law were read: and this continued till the time of the Laodicean council.” ~ The Whole Works of Jeremey Taylor, Vol. IX, p416 (R. Heber’s Edition, Vol.XII, p.416)

“The festival of Sunday, like all other festivals, was always only a human ordinance, and it was far from the intentions of the apostles to establish a Divine command in this respect, far from them, and from the early apostolic Church, to transfer the laws of the Sabbath to Sunday.” ~ Lutheran- Dr. Augustus Neander, The History of the Christian Religion and Church (1843)

“The [Seventh-day] Sabbath was binding in Eden, and it has been in force ever since. This Fourth Commandment [Exodus 20:8-11] begins with the word ‘remember,’ showing that the Sabbath had already existed when God wrote the law on the tables of stone at Sinai. How can men claim that this one commandment has been done away with when they admit that the other nine are still binding?” ~  Dwight.L. Moody, Weighed and Wanting, 1898, pp.46-47 [D.L. Moody, (1837-1899) was the most famous evangelist of his time, and founder of the Moody Bible Institute].

Sunday WorshipChristmas & EasterInfant BaptismIntercession for DeadWhen it becomes civil law to observe some or all of

these things world-wide, the Mark of the Beast has arrived

The Beast is found in Catholicism- the Roman Catholic Church

The Image of the Beast is found in Protestantism- Continuing in the changed times and laws of the Beast

They have formed an “image” of the Beast

“The goal of the World Council of Churches is not to build a global “super-church”, nor to standardize styles of worship, but rather to deepen the fellowship of Christian churches and communities so they may see in one another authentic expressions of the “one holy, catholic and apostolic church”

“And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” ~ Revelation 12:17

“Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” ~  Revelation 14:12

“Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.” ~ Revelation 22:14

“I have long been decided in opinion that a free government and the Roman Catholick religion can never exist together in any nation or Country. Liberty and Popery cannot live together”. ~ John Adams

“I do not like the late Resurrection of the Jesuits. They have a General, now in Russia, in correspondence with jesuits in the U.S. who are more numerous than everybody knows. Shall We not have Swarms of them here? In as many shapes and disguises as ever … In the shape of printers, Editors, Writers, School masters, etc. If ever any Congregation of men could merit, eternal Perdition on Earth and in Hell … it is this Company of Loyola”. ~ John Adams

“I see a very dark cloud on America’s horizon, and that dark cloud is coming from Rome.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

“The mormon and the Jesuit priests are equally the uncompromising enemies of our Constitution and our laws; but the more dangerous of the two is the Jesuit- the romish priest, for he knows better how to conceal his hatred under the mask of friendship and public deeds for the glory of God…. So many plots have already been made against my life, that it is a real miracle that they have all failed, when we consider that the great majority of them were in the hands of the skillful Roman Catholic murderers, evidently trained by Jesuits. But Can we expect that God will make a perpetual miracle to save my life? I believe not. ..My escape from their hands, since the letter of the pope to Jeff Davis has sharpened a million of daggers to pierce my breast, would be more than a miracle. But just as the Lord heard no murmur from the lips of Moses when he told him that he had to die, before crossing the Jordan, for the sins of his people; so i hope and pray that he will hear no murmur from me when i fall for my nations sake…” ~ Abraham Lincoln (The true history behind the Civil War, and Lincoln’s Assassination/Fifty Years in the Church of Rome)

“The RCC “makes its contribution (in the ethical and moral sphere) according to the dispositions of international law, helps to define that law, and makes appeal to it“, that we live in a time when little groups of independent people threaten the unity of the world, and that the only way to combat this problem is by establishing law and then ordering all of society according to this law, thus promoting “peace and good will throughout the earth.”" ~ Apostolic Journey to the USA & Visit to the UN Organization Headquarters, Meeting with Members of the General Assembly of the United Nations Organization, Address of Pope Benedict XVI, New York, Friday April 18, 2008
