The Bible clearly predicts that one day a Mark, the Mark of the Beast, will be required to buy and sell. Christians lose their salvation if they take the Mark. The Mark will be placed on the forehead or right hand or arm, but possibly just on the hand...either hand (some scripture mentions only 'the hand', another verse specifically mentions 'the right hand'. Play it safe...place both hands off limits for mandatory marking!) We could make such laws now...but only for a very short time, I believe...to prevent this in the USA or any country. We could specify that any such Mark be located on the chest of foot, for instance. Or we could legislate that no such mark can ever be required in or on the body at all in order to take part in any commerce or to access government provided goods or aid, even in wartime or emergency situations.
We must make actual laws forbidding that any sort of identifier located in the right hand or arm, or on the face or forehead should ever be required to take equal part in buying or selling or exclusively allowing access to government or commonly available and needed resources such as groceries, hardwares or medical treatments, having voting rights, etc.! Having some sort of identification is fine, even very wise I think, but not this specific sort of identification. Right now we can make laws which forbid it. Soon we won't be able to. The left arm or better yet other body parts ought be codified as equally allowable choices in all regular or emergency conditions where some Mark is needed, if indeed any American citizen should ever be forced to take such a mark at all!
"There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord." Proverbs 21:30
If the Lord intends that's the USA's citizens, or its Christian citizens, or the citizens of other Christian nations should not be able to avoid having the Mark of the Beast forced upon us, then He is sovereign and it shall come to pass. But...what if the Lord has no objection to the USA making it legally prohibited for any person in our nation to ever be forced to take the prophesied Mark of the Beast on our right hand/arm or our face/forehead in order to buy and sell? What if those two bodily locations, or perhaps any sort of mandatory chipping or marking, are categorically placed off limits by force of law, no matter how dire our national circumstances might be?
In the United States there has probably never been a time when the political winds are blowing more favorably for making a law prohibiting the Mark of the Beast from ever becoming a reality on American soil. Whether you like or hate Republicans or conservatives, or Christians this is a rare window indeed where motivated Christian citizens could get this made into a national law in swift order. If we let this opportunity slip it is highly unlikely that there will ever be another opportunity. God will allow this evil Mark to come to pass in every nation if He so wills, and whatever He decides for us, we know it is just and right altogether, as we believers say. But what if He would approve of it if a Christ-believing nation showed fear of evil and belief in God's warnings to the point of legally codifying our aversion to all things that are from the Devil, including this prophesied Mark of the Beast? God could bless our efforts if it pleases Him, and fail our efforts if it does not; it is still a wise seeming move to make a law against the Mark. What logical objection can be formed against doing so? It won't cost that much, it won't take that long, it won't hurt anyone except those dedicated to the success of the Devil's plans. Even chip manufacturers of RFID chips and the like shouldn't worry...people could just receive such chips or tattoos or identifiers in other areas of the body. (Not saying I think this is a good idea!) So, this is the moment in the USA, and for other sensible Christian countries as well. Now is the moment where we could quickly pass this sort of law on the state and national levels. There is so very much to possibly gain, so very little to lose! It is a sign of great national wisdom and respect for God and His word to make this move, to pass such a law. It is by no means rebellion against God, but rather a show of belief in the horrors He has warned us about. The Mark of the Beast financial system WILL be implemented. The Bible assures us of it. But it MIGHT NOT need to come to every nation and every land. Maybe God will allow us to fend it off in some nations. That is up to the Lord, ultimately, but we humans can definitely take such actions as we can to prevent it from ever coming to our land right now! Look, if Christians demand this, in the USA we constitute the majority of the citizen voters. This could be law by the end of 2025 A.D. for crying out loud, and which law could ever be wiser to propose, ratify and enact? It may protect us, it may protect our children. It may fend off not thousands but many millions of starvations and accompanying desperate crimes. But some people are definitely going to live in a time where there is such a thing as the Mark of the Beast and it is a grim and deadly reality. The Bible prophesies never miss!
As we all know, pets already get identifying and medical info chips on a very regular basis. It's totally common. Also, they are showing examples on television and on the internet of how you can have a chip implanted in your human hand and you can use it in the vicinity of a store cash register and buy things, just like how you can use proximity credit cards to buy things...just wave your hand or tap! Also we can already use our phones to buy at the register if we have a near field communication type antenna in our phone, which most now have.
The Bible warns of a Mark of the Beast end times financial system (Revelation 13 and 14) which will require a mysterious mark of some sort on the RIGHT HAND or maybe just 'hand' period or FOREHEAD/Face in order to buy or sell. Frighteningly, you are locked out of engaging in buying and selling if you do not have it, and you lose your Christian salvation if you accept it. That means, if I am not mistaken, that you will go to hell for taking/accepting that 'mark' of the Beast. This is the famous warning from Revelation 14:
8 A second angel followed and said, “‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great,’[a] which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries.”
9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand, 10 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” 12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus.

The Bible, let us remember, has no failed prophecies that anyone...friend of foe of the Bible...can point to. Some are as yet unfulfilled, but none have failed in their appointed time. This prophecy will therefore probably not fail either, right? So, even if we die of starvation or lack of medicine, even if we must watch our dear and loved children starve to death in front of our eyes, we Christians must keep our faith that this life is only temporary, our bodies are only temporary, but our salvation or lack of it is forever...it is eternal. We die if we must! Our children will die, if they must...even if they cry and cry about their hunger and the solution...taking the Mark of the Beast so you can go buy groceries or medicine...is readily available. It's going to be a torturously horrible act of faith to not take that mark! Yet your kids can enjoy all of eternity in Heaven, as can you, if you just keep your faith that Jesus should be obeyed unto death, even where your innocent and dependent children's Earth-life is concerned. Does that sound glib? It will be so so horrible. It will be so tremendously agonizingly hard. But, eternity is very long indeed, so if you make sure that you and your children don't spend it in Hell then you have made the good choice.
But what about our US government, all of the Christian majority governments around the globe? Can't they legislate against this possibility? We can force our lawmakers, our venerable and dutiful servants in leadership, to pass a law saying that it can never be required, in peace time, war time, or emergency conditions, that a chip or other mark must be taken on or in the right hand/arm or the face/forehead in order to be identified, or in order to buy and sell as needed, in order to qualify for government, corporate, or emergency resources! Christian legislators will know the best language to use, of course. Such a law probably must say that neither governments or corporations or branches of the military or emergency management entities can ever cause us to be forced to take such a Mark in order to have equal access to any resource that a person with a Mark on their right hand or face can avail themselves to having. And the law must provide dire criminal penalties for any entity trying to circumvent this prohibition or who aims to break this law in even the most dire circumstances. There are other places on the body, for one thing. And there should be non-embedded and non-surface applied methods of qualifying as eligible for these various possible resources. A LAW LIKE THIS PROHIBITING THE MARK, CAN CERTAINLY BE WRITTEN AND PASSED. Every Christian nation would be extremely wise to ensure that it happens, and it ought to happen very very quickly! It needs to happen very, very quickly. Technologically, we are there already. As for prophetically, once we are there it will certainly be too late. NOW IS THE PRUDENT TIME!! Call your legislators, write your legislators, visit them if you can. Call influencers and see if they can help. Have your pastor gather some other pastors and reach out. Now is our chance!! A thing like this sounds silly, yet many who call it so will also say that they are Bible believers...which means you thing that the Mark of the Beast system will become a reality in its time...and so, how is it not a very, very, very good idea to try to insulate our nation from such a horrible thing!?!
