A Sweedish Office is Implanting RFID Chips, mark of the beast?

[Searching_For_The_Truth]

Hello everyone, I read this article on the news yesterday that a Swedish company is implementing RFID chips into their employee's hands. Could this be a sign that the mark of the beast is indeed literal? Please share your thoughts and the article is linked below.

They aren't the first. Baja Beach Club in Spain had it back in 2005.
The benefit is that they have less fuss entering the club etc.

The true mark of the beast is that there will be (almost) no choice. Government enforced. Illegal for not having a chip. The club is clearly voluntarily.
Likewise for the people in your article "Employees are not required to have the technology implanted"
On top of that they can still buy and sell.

So my view is that this is not the mark of the beast.

[sheila]

buy and sell as related to ten virgins parable.. the oil is the true words of God that give 'understanding and wisdom from above"

    Come..take lifes water free. Buy truth and sell it not.   when you 'BUY" men's doctrines[books etc Judas priests etc]

   from religions...you can't buy it without receiving the 'mark of the beast' because it is not true understanding...nor

  wisdom from above..for man that understandeth not..is as the beast.   foolish virgins do not have enough understanding

  if they're busy 'buying all the doctrines of men out there' and miss out on the true understandings of Christ and the

  intimacy with God that is it's results[knowing truth/God/Love]

   buy and sell not.........why do you pay money for bread that is not true bread...you share bread freely.

    now..if a beast but touch the holy mountain..he is put to death of it[=not spiritually alive to God/understand/see face to face]

   that is why...he who receives the mark of the beast can not live...and the veil of Moses face covered the light that shone

  forth of Moses face..from talking to God on the Holy mountain face to face...for this same reason..the people said...'let God not

  speak to us ,lest we die!"  then proceeded to make an image of a beast with their hands/and thought it in their minds.  Man

that is in honour before God and understandeth it not..is as a beast.

     these things speak of the ignorance of man[from below] I come from above.......my thoughts are not your thoughts

    My thoughts are much higher then yours.   God must teach/educate man..and He will........

    Peter's vision of the animals,clean and unclean 'on the sheet[shroud/death/blind of understanding] symbolizes men

  sown in the earth[come down from heaven/sown natural] in various states of ignorance...then taken back up in heaven.

    Peter was told to Rise,Peter,kill and eat..meaning...to slay the beast[ignorance] in men...eat with sinners,just as

   Jesus shared meals with such[the well do not need a physician] and share the gospel of Jesus Christ with them.

  or otherwise...help them with KNOWING GOD....and Knowing Christ..for this is eternal life..to KNOW the ONE TRUE GOD

   

[sheila]

now man..in the image of the corrupt...is as a beast..the serpent the most subtil beast of the field. For many misunderstandings

  of the Word of God are very subtil....and is known as the 'torment of the LOGOS" By subtilly twisting God's word unto man

  this corruption brings death to man and not life.

  the offspring of vipers crucified/tormented the word of God come in flesh..in this very way...and put Him to death[resurrection/

  life] by calling him a blasphemer.   In the same way...the truths of God give life to man...and man must live by every

  word of God. the spirit of the man-killer/murderer from the beginning is tormented of the faithful and true witness

of the 'word of God'....for the TRUTH SETS MEN FREE.

[sheila]

    Revelation of Christ 11;19  Then Gods temple in heaven was opened and within His temple was seen the ark of

the covenant. And there came flashes of lightning,rumblings[thunder] an earthquake and a great hailstorm.

     this is God's Word[ark contents] being opened...the lightening is man eye's being lightened with  God's truth

  the thunders are man hearing the truth of God's voice..the hailstones are cold hard facts/truth destroying any

refuge of a lie.  The woman gives birth to the sons of God[children being brought forth from above with understanding]

  this results in satan and his lying doctrines being cast down..and makes him angry...he that leads the whole earth

astray with his lies.  Salvation and power of God and the kingdom and authority of His Christ[give life to man]

     accusors of the brethren[testimony of Jesus/TRuth] accuse 'blasphemy!" when they are in truth the blasphemers

  against the holy spirit....and set forth to persecute.....

     the lier[serpent] and deceiver[false prophet] and murderer of man[beast] is consumed with the breath of His coming....

        the faithful and true witness wars against the liers with the sword of His mouth...to the dividing of.......

      you have people who hold to the teaching of Balaam[curse Israel/man]  repent ,otherwise

     I will fight against you with the sword of my mouth.................

      the demons asked if Jesus had come 'before the time' to torment them.........the time of their torment is when all lies

    are destroyed forever...

Many interpretations have been given to the Mark. Anyway, I don't know whether 'tis the mark or not, but surely I will let nobody implant it within my body.

I tend to think of the mark as being entirely symbolic.

The bible, and especially Revelation, is filled with symbolism.

In revelation, the mark of the beast is not the only thing placed in people's foreheads.  The 144,000 with the "Father's name written in their foreheads"  ...so one group gets the mark of the beast while the other group gets the mark of God. "They shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads."

The woman riding a beast also had something on her forehead..."And upon her forehead was a name written, 'mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of harlots'" Revelation 17:5.

I've read that in the bible, the forehead represents the mind, and the hand represents the actions.

Moses told the Israelites to, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These Commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. ... 8 Tie them as symbols on your HANDS and bind them on your FOREHEADS." Deuteronomy 6:5-8 NIV

And Deuteronomy 11:18 NIV says, "Fix these words of mine in your HEARTS and MINDS; tie them as symbols on your HANDS and bind them on your FOREHEADS."

Hebrews 10:16 "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their HEARTS, and in their MINDS will I write them;"

So basically, God will be in our minds and actions, or the beast will be in our minds and actions, is how I interpret the mark. It will be God's people versus the rest of the world.

Amen.
666 is simply perfect imperfection.
Study the numbers.
What does 3 mean?
What does 6 mean?
What does 3 sixes mean?

I have thought of the seal on the forehead of the 144,000 of Israel (and the great crowd from all nations?) as a sealing of the mind to go along with the seal on the heart (which cries abba, Father)

I've wondered if the "Mystery Babylon" (Mystery babble? aka, babble on, and on?) which is upon the forehead of city Babylon isn't the psyche of mankind's empire(s)/world.. representing all untruth/confusion.. the woman/city is said to be responsible "for all slain upon earth" - since Cain slew Abel, I'm taking it..?

I tend to think of the end days 666 mark to be more than symbolic, as ppl won't be able to buy or sell w/o it.. But I do think it will end up being a form and symbol of ownership..

Revelation I think of as a narrative that uses symbolism (meant to be understood, I believe, for in the beginning of it, it says how blessed are those who hear and heed the message)

They aren't the first. Baja Beach Club in Spain had it back in 2005.
The benefit is that they have less fuss entering the club etc.

The true mark of the beast is that there will be (almost) no choice. Government enforced. Illegal for not having a chip. The club is clearly voluntarily.
Likewise for the people in your article "Employees are not required to have the technology implanted"
On top of that they can still buy and sell.

So my view is that this is not the mark of the beast.

RFID chips do sure seem to be progressing.. first animals and beneficial.. then advised for children, sounds beneficial... then financial what with chips in credit and debit cards being the new thing and all the rage..
Personally I would never trust an implant what with how corrupt human beings are.. In the 20th century the highest cause of death was death by government, and that's not counting war.. :gimpossible:

[sheila]

everything is lawful[if used with love and benefit of other's in mind] but not everything is beneficial[unclean/corrupt spirits of greed

  and hate will use for malicious purpose]

   from now on call no man unclean[man is not unclean in himself] but unclean spirits may dwell in many...and Jesus must call such out of

man[and does/shall each in order]  the hour has come and is now..when all shall hear the voice of the son of God and come forth

    John 5;25-30   It is the duty of the High Priest to discern[judge[ment] the clean[holy] from the unclean[unholy/wicked]

   

[sheila]

thus...two women at the handmill...one taken..on the wings of the eagle..and one left[where the corpse is[body of death] there the vultures

shall be gathered.

   unclean birds evening meal eat flesh[serpents portion dust shall thou eat all the days of thy life]

  now Paul asked..'who shall deliver me from this body of death[corpse/reckoning his body good as dead because of sin]

  thanks be to our Lord,Jesus Christ"

 :cloud9: IMO, the marks are spiritual. The mark in the hand = works of the flesh. The mark in the head = the carnal mind. All have already been marked, therefore, being birthed into this kingdom of flesh. We are to press in for the prize of the mark of the High calling Paul spoke of = the mind of Christ, in fullness. Blessings....

[CHB]

I believe the marks are spiritual also but for the most part has already happened. I believe they were connected with the law. Remember how God told the Israelites to keep the commandments between their eyes and in their hand?

I hadn't thought of that before but it sounds like a good theory. Hilariously, I initially read your post to mean "fall" as in the season ... Talk about carnal vs spiritual :)

[rosered]

  Yes for me the old   ''mark of the beast ''   first and ''prime ''   best example  was Cain ... 

  Cain was counseled by God   in Gen 4   when Cain chose to let sin  rule over him  , instead of him ruling over the   sin  crouching at the hearts door ...

  HE chose to hate   his brother Abel    in jealousy and envy     and strife  and let that  come in   and flood his soul /life   making him miserable and  bring destruction  to any good thing  , his brother offered to God or himself   offered to God ,,,      blood  shed  was that sacrifice  ...  sin offering  starts    by the shedding of ''innocent '' blood ''        the lambs  blood was Abel's offering to God the best and choice and first    ...  Abel done this in the ''right heart'' Giving to God   his best  first  , before ''taking anything for himself   ..

  Cains heart was darkened by  evil  /hate    ,  As  far as   this goes for me , I can see that mark  of blood spilled on the ground / earth as   THE MARK [literally ]  , of itself ...  wrong spirit   /heart   , one of violence     towards GOD and  your  brother  , showing    sin / trespass  ,  error  ,  going past a boundary,     Gods law of LOVE  HIM FIRST   and brother as yourself ...    and this has continued   to escalate    even to this DAY ... as into  that Day ...
