TLDR: Accept Jesus, not a mark that allows you to buy and sell - Both are coming
What you are witnessing in this world is the rise of the antichrist system. There is going to come a time when you will be required to take a mark in order to buy or sell or participate in society. Do you see it coming? Can you feel it? I remember when I was a child and learning about the mark and the antichrist system, I couldn't understand how it would be possible. There were no personal computers. There were no satellites. The internet did not exist. Money was exchanged physically only. How would it be possible for one man to gain control of the whole world? And how could people allow it to happen when there was this book telling them exactly what would happen?
My, how things have changed. Knowledge has increased. People have largely relegated the Bible and God to fairy tales because of the constant lies they have been told. Do you see now all the lies that have been told and how they do it? It didn't start with Donald Trump's presidency. You have been manipulated and lied to your entire life.
The Bible tells us exactly how people will behave and what events will take place in the last days, and boy is it spot on.
You may have rejected all of the amazing Bible prophecies that have been fulfilled in the past - but what will you do when you are presented with their fulfillment in your life? If you are presented with a mark to be put your forehead or right hand that gives you permission to buy and sell - remember that it was foretold, and do not take that mark because it signifies your worship of the beast, and you will perish.
Great violence is coming. It is coming in the form of natural disasters, diseases, famines, and war.
Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life, and He is the only way to escape what is coming on the Earth.
Accept the sacrifice that Christ made. With your mouth, declare that He is the Lord and Saviour. Repent of your sins, and He will forgive you, and you will be saved.
Time is short.
This should be stickied. Because it's more important than anything else.
Amen.
This video shows you the 100% guaranteed way to get to heaven, and it exposes false gospels...
https://sermontranscript.com/THE_FREE_GIFT_OF_ETERNAL_LIFE.mp4
Don't watch that shit I'll tell you right here and now how to get into heaven
ACCEPT JESUS AND REPENT YOUR SINS
Eternal life is a gift. You don't receive eternal life by quitting your sin.
You are saved by faith alone in Jesus Christ!
Anything else is works salvation.
The video is really good...
Oh well yea I totally agree with that,
S O L A + F I D E
Always has been
Have y'all seen American Gospel?
I agree with the problems and I'm no eschatologist, but I don't automatically agree with the interpretation of the end times as posed by most modern Christians. The concept of the antichrist was used often as a propaganda tool against the pope (I'm okay with that, the pope is an illigetimate post anyways). Also, I feel that these beliefs about the end times have in the past been used to persecute Jews and are now used for Zionist indoctrination.
I'm more of a preterist and there are a lot of people never exposed to this idea and that's a shame because the lack of exposure has created an echo chamber in Christian theology regarding the "end times".
Have a look and think for yourself, maybe the Tribulation was carried out against the Jews alone as punishment for rejecting Jesus and much of Revelation describes Roman persecution of Christians and Jews: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preterism
I would have to say that the best rebuttal of Preterism is that after the 70th week of the Daniel prophecy (The Great Tribulation) is the promise that Jesus would return and establish His 1000 year reign here on Earth with Him as the head - then the final judgement. Without going too deep into it, the last week of the Daniel prophecy was put on hold just as the Jews entrance to the promised land was put on hold because of their unbelief and because of God's mercy. 2520 - the magic number - may be the key to understanding when the last week starts. I was amazed by this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi7DD6NCGrI
I totally agree, based on what you have said I would say I'm probably not confident enough to say I'm a full preterist and probably more historicist. I've never heard that term (it's amazing how many have never heard of preterism but I guess futurism is so dominant that I myself have missed historicism), so I've got some reading to do
i must say- this is 100% true.
if you chose to laugh now you will certainly cry later, unfortunately.
Have mercy on us Jesus.
The Holy Spirit just called, he wants your soul back.
No such thing.
We are 'Living Beings' the Hebrew understanding. Creations built around living bodies, animated with a spirit that sets us apart from mere animals; in the image of God.
When Jesus rose again, the tomb was empty. He showed his scars to Thomas. He was resurrected in to his existing body; newly perfected and immune to death and decay.
There is no "perfect you out there somewhere". You aren't a "perfect immortal soul inhabiting a meat sack". You are the meat sack. Everything else is a Platonic Heresy based on Plato's Theory of Forms that infected Christian thought from the Greek. Love the body you're in, because if you're saved, then you're going to be in it a long time.
My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit.
Yawn.

I've been thinking these same thoughts. It's so much easier now to understand and envision how such a controlling Beast system can be implemented than it was in the past.
^^ this
Spot on. And literally in the first link there’s a connection to Bill gates 🤦♂️
“Now, a group of MIT researchers funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation says that invisible tattoos may be the best way to deal with this tracking issue.”
How so?
scanning for da mark nigga
God Bless my fellow patriots & God Bless America!
Amen.
This definitely should be stickied
For the sake of people that don't know religion or God, this should be stickied so people can be informed on this happening as been foretold in the Bible. This is people's eternity we are talking about here after our lives on done on this Earth. I'm a youth group leader at my church and I try to help them the best I can do they can learn about him and if some forum post can help someone learn or "plant a seed" sortaspeak I'm all for it.
Absolutely. Please sticky, mods!
Amen brother. Vaccine tracking is pretty close IMHO. Can't travel or enter a mall without your vaccine mark. Gates was talking about injecting a bio-information chip with the vaccines to indicate that you got them.
For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy. - 2 Timothy 3:2
Truth.
But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase. - Daniel 12:4
You know I used to laugh at overly religious people calling the a president of the US the antichrist... Etc... My objection was always "The United States is not the entire world. Even if X happens in America, it doesn't fulfill the prophecies of the Antichrist"
Well now we've passed that. I've been thinking about this topic a lot. It's a WORLD WIDE thing now. If they institute something to where you have to have a brand, tattoo, ID, whatever to prove you were vaccinated to participate in society then that fulfills the prophecy.
It is world wide at this point. I'm not saying it is absolutely coming like OP suggests, but be extremely vigilant, pedes.
Pedes, I’m pushing 51 in a couple weeks, and have followed Christ less than 8 years. OP is correct, these are evil themes and goals being pushed on us.
Being a Christian, I know in my soul that this world, this life are secondary. My eternal home is in Heaven. But I’m too much like Peter, and want to lop of ears and see Jesus toss a Few tables in this American Temple we call DC!
I’ve been praying daily, multiple times, for Heavenly salvation from all of this fraud, but I’ve read too much of His word to NOT realize that sometimes His people need to take serious action. I’m Just waiting on that GO word...
Amen. No one left behind- that’s our hope and our job.
Keep your mind open, and be willing to put your faith in Jesus and discover the truth of the Bible. Everything else will eventually die or let you down; Jesus will not. I'm praying for you now; not as an imposition, but simply praying for peace and protection (and ultimately salvation) for you, in the face of what and who we know is coming, for worse and for better.
Amen.
I always need it. Much appreciated, brother.
Amen, Jesus is the only way.
Both 1 John and 2 John talk about there being many antichrists. Satan does not know the end time (only God does) so he has raised up many antichrists throughout the generations.
I am also a firm believer that the second coming of Jesus for His church will be pre-tribulation, yet we know troubling times precede it. The Holy Spirit holds back the man of lawlessness until He (the Holy Spirit) taken away. The Holy Spirit also leads, guides, teaches, and refines believers. What a gift from the Lord!
God bless America and come Lord Jesus!
Maranatha!
Thank you!
Amen. Pray for strength and stay on the right path. Pray for forgiveness for your sins. Share the power of faith.
This seemed unreal in my childhood in the 60s-70s, and it is happening NOW. Feels like a bad dream.
Trump can stop it! Pray for him too!
Yup you can feel that time getting closer I suspect the winner of this election will decide how much closer that time will be. I will warn you guys though it is written we will not know the exact time it will happen and I suspect that was written in so we also don’t give up and try to rush the lord. So keep fighting to protect this world both spiritually and physically so that when Jesus returns we can hold our heads high and say we held the line on earth for him whether that be in a few years or another thousand.
But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. - Matthew 24:36
Hopefully the legal one we voted for. However I have always thought if God was ready to issue in the end times, why would He give us mercy with Trump at all, a very prolife and pro-religious freedom president, instead of letting evil have its way? I can’t pretend to know anything God has planned, but just something I’ve always thought.
I’ve thought the same unfortunately.
The other day I was awaiting the train on the commute home from work. The trains and stations are empty these days, like I'm in a zombie movie. The only people around and the occassional hobo asking for money, but even they are scarce. This time there was an older-than-I woman there, and she walked over and asked if she could pray for me. I said yes, she did so, and I said thank you and amen. Then we walked to opposite sides of the station. Then she came back to my side to ask me a question and told me that China is the Leviathan from the Bible and that we are indeed in the end times. She told me to stockpile water and food and to learn to garden... I already do all of those things, as I am but a humble chicken farmer when im not at work, but I nodded and let her speak. She said all of these things. And I said "I believe you and I know." And then we parted ways. It was an eerie experience, but it seemed fitting against the backdrop of the COVID ghost town.
Seconding this excellent series by Pastor Chris.
Calvary is wonderful. The full counsel of God.
Second this...still miss Pastor Chuck.
I have tried to read Revelation a number of times but it makes no sense talking about dragons and crowns and all this other jazz. I would have lived if they wrote down actual words that normal people could understand.
I think if we don't understand something from the Bible at a particular time, then we aren't meant to then. I learn something new almost every time I read in the Bible - and almost every time I am astonished that I didn't see it the previous times. It's really weird.
Really great answer, OP. The Bible is dynamic and living. The same passages can mean different things to you at different stages of your life.
"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Hebrews 4:12
Bingo. John was told to write what he saw. He describes what he saw; there's very little metaphor, just a man, doing his best to describe the indescribable. The few times he does use metaphor, he tells you that he is: the heads are mountains, the horns; kings.
I'll give you the crux of revelations with a passage
"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."
Most important post I've seen on TDW.
Agree.
Maranatha.
Amen, his kingdom is beautiful and he meant for all to enter.
Wish I had unlimited updoot!
:D
I was taught the rapture would take us before this. :(
It is time for Christians to be bold! Jesus was savage and fearless. We have been too often let down by false priests and weak leaders. I feel so strongly that we need to rise up and loudly proclaim our faith. We have been taught to keep silent so we don't "offend" others. Please, let us find our courage and conviction. It will mark us out and may make our life on earth very difficult. Who will face the martyrs in Heaven, having been a coward?
100% agree with you, brother! Right now we need to rally in prayer and get our marching orders from the King of Kings! This is not a defensive battle but a chance to use the weapons given to us as we abide in the presence of the Almighty! All our weapons are designed for the offensive attack as we move forward with boldness! Ephesians 6... standing in the power of His might!
I have always wondered why you get a mark in your right hand OR your forehead. Is it two different classes of people. One receiving the mark on their right hand and the other group receiving the mark on their forehead?
We know the corrupt elites aren't taking the vaxx and are a totally separate class.
It's not a physical mark. Gods people are marked too. The hand is your actions and forehead your thoughts. It's basically you taking part in the system to save yourself in this life. Example being the system forcing you to do something against Gods will.
Nay... While you yet live in this life, salvation is offered to you by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
"And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation." Hebrews 9:27-28
Have you ever heard the gospel?
Predestination may have some validity and can find support in several verses of the Bible, no doubt. However, many other verses tend to lead toward the free will of man to accept or reject Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and come to salvation. One point plagues the believer in predestination and that is how does one know who are the tares and who are the wheat while in this life? Therefore we have no choice but to respond to Paul's promise that "Whoever calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:13) And walk in Jesus greatest commandment to "Love one another as I have loved you." My question to you is what has convinced you that you are a tare and have no part in the Kingdom of Heaven? I know for a fact that God is "longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance." Certainly the devil loves to lie, bringing hopelessness and despair to each of us and what better way to do so but to convince us that we are beyond the reach of the saving blood of Jesus.
Whew! Sorry about that! Eesh... when you said that you were in hell I assumed that you meant that you were a tare... Yikes!
One word of caution along those lines.... Predestination can lead one into a sense of completion... knowing that Jesus paid it all on the cross as He stated at the finale.... It is finished! It was finished, in a sense... The penalty for our crimes was paid in full!!
Yet we are not finished because we have still been called to go and make disciples of all the nations... and we must first be disciples in order to do that!
To me discipleship is summed up in one scripture of Paul's.. Phillipians 2:12- "work out your own salvation in fear and trembling knowing it is God working in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure" So God promises that He will work in us as we work it out... it is a two way street here! That way we can bear much fruit and be well pleasing in the sight of the Father! Hallelujah brother... glory to God!
You are welcome always!! God bless you too, brother
Wew it was at 666 until I upvoted. You’re welcome. Great post. Thanks
guess whats in the quantum dot vaccine? a little thing gates likes to call “Lucifrase”
Yeah. look it up.
Any non-believers, use the contrast of these times to find the truth. The good thing about bad times is it steers us to God.
Not all nations fall under the antichrist system. He is fighting wars until the end. We must resist. It appears as though this is it. I hope we’re wrong.
I'm pretty sure my belief in God and living by the 10 Commandments doesn't require anything else to get me into heaven.
Jesus is the only way to God. No human can be good enough. By God’s grace and mercy, he open’s eyes to see one’s hopelessness in their sin and recognize they need Jesus’ payment for their sin.
Do not bank on pretty sure. This is your eternal soul we are speaking of.
Salvation is by grace, though faith in Jesus Christ. The law can not give you salvation. Only faith in the Lord Jesus can.
"And He has qualified us as ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." 2 Corinthians 3:6
How do you not see that religion, as separate form a loving God who loves us in all forms and imperfections, is what got us into this hot mess in the first place?
I understand that religion contributes to this mess. The law is only a mirror, and religion is not The Way.
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. - John 14:6
Very true. Religion puts God in a box. Religion tries to bring God down to our level. All He asks for is trust and He will bring us up to His level. Abraham's righteousness was attributed to him because he trusted God. King David described as a man after Gods own heart. Because he eventually listened and learned to trust God.
Accepting and professing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is the only requirement. We should absolutely repent of our sins and love a good life (great following the 10 commandments) but make no mistake....we are saved through His grace and grace alone.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father except by me" and he said "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture" He also said "Before Abraham; I am"
I believe Him because of His life, the testimony of many witnesses, and His fulfillment of dozens of specific and amazing prophecies, and because He was sacrificed.
