Fresh Warnings of the Mark of the Beast

My three main interests in life are prophecy, economics, and general news. I watch several financial videos each week, and I’ve noticed that many of them are worried about the implementation of a central bank digital currency (CBDC). They warned that such a system would give the government too much control over our lives.

I am concerned because I see this device as the advanced stage of what will be the mark of the beast. A couple of decades ago, there was no possible way to implement a digital currency that could conduct all financial transactions. Today, a working CBDC is being tested by several government agencies.

The COVID pandemic helped set the blueprint for the mark. Millions of people couldn’t go to work, so they needed a handout from the government. The feds had the power to put trillions of dollars into the bank account of everyone who qualified.

Since the rapture will probably create far greater chaos, the Fed could offer more money to restore order. Only in this case your bank account will be with the Fed, and you’ll need to get a chip Injection to access your funds.

If the government can put money into your current bank account, they can easily transfer all your funds to your new Fed account. You could be a billionaire and be separated from your money by a system that the Bible warns we should not become involved with. Everyone who takes the 666 mark will be condemned to hell.

“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God …. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night …. Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus” (Rev. 14:9-12).

People will not be tricked into taking the mark by accident. By accepting it, a person will be pledging their obedience to the Antichrist. There could be an oath that people will be required to take.

I find the mark to be one of the scariest things in the Book of Revelation. You could be a rich person but have to face starving to death to save your soul from the lake of fire. The beast government will save many from dying of hunger by chopping their heads off.

There is another technological development that I find equally worrying. There has been much news about the danger presented by artificial intelligence apps.

The “Godfather of AI,” Geoffrey Hinton, recently resigned from his position at Google, where he has worked for over a decade. He joined a growing chorus of critics who warn of the existential risk artificial intelligence systems pose to humans.

Elon Musk has warned of the danger of AI, but he founded the company that created ChatGPT, the most widely used AI app. Many of the scientists that labored to create the atomic bomb got cold feet when it came to using the bomb against Japan. When people create things that can be used for evil, they cannot be un-invented.

There is one example of AI being used by criminals. Fox News reported that a Florida man received a call from what he thought was his daughter. The voice sounded just like his daughter, but it was an AI-created clone. The scammers asked him to send $600 to resolve an undisclosed dire situation.

Some people who rejected the mark may get calls from their dead relatives begging them to get chipped. Since the government records all phone conversations, AI would have no trouble producing the voice of someone’s dead mother.

AI could put pressure on holdouts by turning off their utilities, their internet, and their wireless phones. People could have their homes or cars taken from them because they didn’t pay loans that were paid off years ago.

There will be few places to hide from an AI-driven mark of the beast system. Every true Believer should rejoice each day that God has promised to save us from an evil man who will briefly have total control over the earth.

“And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority …. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations” (Revelation 13:2; 7).

This End-of-the-Age Rage

You have to hear it for yourself to understand. It is the manifestation of the reprobate mind—the result of turning one’s back to God and deliberately going in the opposite direction.

The sound, you would think, comes from inside asylums for the insane. But the seeming uncontrollable screeching is heard more and more as lunatic-sounding protests have grown from demonstrations and debates of the past, stemming from a degree of sensibility to become guttural screams that drown out any counter viewpoint.

The level of enragement that points to the reprobate mind that no longer is willing to hear what God’s Word has to say is wild animal-like—without self-discipline of any sort.

Most of the rage is centered at the heart of the aberrant sexual agenda being foisted at present, particularly against the very youngest. The screams are especially steeped at the center of the LGBTQ+ entities and organizations in America.

Although by far in the minority of societal and cultural composition, the shrill howls of animal-like shrieking garner the attention of politicians and courts. A news item perhaps will somewhat describe my intended point.

A transgender activist let out several primal screams at a San Francisco Board of Supervisors meeting last week after SF District Attorney Brooke Jenkins declined to prosecute a Walgreens security guard who shot Banko Brown, a black transgender individual.

Jenkins declared that “the evidence clearly shows that the suspect believed he was in mortal danger and acted in self-defense.”

[The woman, preferring the pronoun their] expressed their (?) displeasure with an intra-scream diatribe:

“I live in [District 6]. I hate a lot of people on this board…for the reasons that led up to Banko Brown’s death. So, often I prepare something—maybe it’s a little historical, may even be a little poetic, whatever. There’s a lot of performative people on this board who will say one thing and support Black people, homeless people, trans people, and then immediately stab you in the face—being racist, transphobic, anti-homeless.

“So I don’t have any words prepared today. I just want you to feel our pain. I don’t know if you can at this point, based off your policy choices, but I have to pretend you have some form of empathy left. So, I am going to spend the next minute screaming ‘cause that is what is going on in here.”

McGeever then gave several primal screams, saying, “That is what the trans genocide in this country, in this city, has brought me to.”

As Jonathan Turley writes, “No, that is what an age of rage has brought all of us to. This entire scream session was due to San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins announcing that her office would not prosecute Michael-Earl Wayne Anthony, a Walgreens security guard responsible for the shooting death of Banko Brown, a Black member of the transgender community…

“Our politics is now reduced to a collective scream session with zero content beyond pure unadulterated rage.

“As I noted earlier, this trend was previously captured by Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who is shown on videotape screaming about gun control in the Capitol as his colleagues left the floor following a vote. When Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) asked Bowman to stop yelling, Bowman shouted back, “I was screaming before you interrupted me”—which could go down as the epitaph for our age. (“AAAAAAAAAHHHH”: Trans Activist Unleashes Primal Scream at SF Board Meeting,” Tyler Durden, ZeroHedge, RR News, May 7, 2023)

The screaming was indeed bloodcurdling. Those in control tried to use reason, but their effort was useless. If not insane at the moment, the individual certainly couldn’t be differentiated from someone who had lost their mind–even by a clinical psychologist—in my opinion.

And this is just the latest of a series of such baying-at-the-moon, ear-piercing-type bellowing.

This type of insane rage seems to have had its genesis as an uncontrollable crying and shrieking by a woman who, back in 2016, sat on a curb when she learned that Donald Trump had won the presidential election over her candidate, Hillary Clinton. The demonstration of the loss of sensibility now has become almost a regular feature by both men and women—especially in demonstrations that are protesting on behalf of Sodom-like activities carried on by LGBTQ+ and their lookalikes. These are demonstrating the “reprobate mind” before the whole world—even the world of the woke of San Francisco governmental entities.

“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.”

Seems to me that insane shrieking for minutes on end is not exactly convenient, especially not to the ears that have to listen.

The closer time comes for Christ’s call for the Church to “Come up here!” (Revelation 4:2), the more Sodom-like the enragement manifests.

The end-of-the-age rage is but another strong signal of where this generation stands on God’s prophetic timeline.

“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:20).
