There is coming on the world scene, a super world dictator. He will be that last great dictator of history who will come just before The Second Coming of Jesus Christ. This world president, this great chief executive, will be the most powerful dictator of all time. He will be the Beast, the Antichrist, Mr. 666.
He will be a human beast empowered by Satan. He is pictured in the Bible as mostly like a leopard with a mouth like a lion and the feet of a bear. A ferocious and bloodthirsty man that rules with an iron fist and the latest technology. The person that rejects the spotless and sinless Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, will receive the spotted, sinful, wicked leopard man- the Antichrist.
The Beast will control his one-world government and through his public relations man, the False Prophet, he will control his one world religion and through his mark on the forehead or right hand, he will control the economy of the world. Absolutely nobody will buy or sell anything without his number 666. He will have total power: political power, religious power, and money power, which are the three great powers of the world.
The bible predicts that during the Great Tribulation the Beast will control all economic activity. Why? The answer is ultimately a religious one. The economy will become an instrument through which every human on planet Earth will be forced to make their choice between God or Satan, good or evil. Although many people in our day think that they can avoid God and His demands upon their lives by feigning neutrality, one’s survival during the Tribulation will be determined by a decision for or against God.
Who has the right to rule over the hearts of men- God or Satan? For the only time in history, people will have a deadline for declaring their allegiance to God or Satan. Throughout the last 2000 years people have accepted or rejected the Gospel message. On this occasion the process will be accelerated and forced because of the Mark of the Beast. All humanity will be divided into two groups- those who get the Mark of the Beast and those who don’t.
The Mark of the Beast is simply a vehicle to force people to choose their allegiance either to Antichrist or to Jesus Christ. All people will be polarized into two camps. It will be impossible to take a position of neutrality or indecision in this matter.
Scriptures is very clear that those who do not receive the mark will be killed. “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.” (Rev.20:4)
The Bible is also clear in naming those who will get the mark. “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” (Rev.13:8) Everyone who is not born again in Christ and does not have his name written in Jesus’ Book of Life will worship the Beast and get his mark. So you must be saved or you will get the mark.
The mark will manifest to all whether you are a born again child of God or a child of the devil. The mark of Satan or the mark of God? It has to do with your Father’s name. The mark of God is just as often in Revelation as the mark of Satan. The Mark of the Beast is a satanic counterfeit of God’s mark and God’s name. After the 1000 year millennial kingdom of Jesus Christ on this earth, we will get our Father’s name written in our foreheads for eternity. “And they shall see his face and his name shall be in their foreheads.” (Rev.22:4)
The born again child of God has God for his Father. God seals him with the invisible seal of the Holy Spirit, but one day we shall have the visible name of our Heavenly Father written in our foreheads.
All who get the Mark of the Beast show the universe that Satan is their father. They have the cryptogram of his name- 666. The child of God will refuse the mark because God is his Father. Jesus said, “Ye are of your father the Devil and the lust of your father ye will do.” (John 8:42)
The Devil wants his children to have his name on them and be worshipped like God. Your Father’s name will be written on you. Which one will it be? God or the Devil? The Mark of the Beast will plainly show that you are a child of your father the Devil. This generation will show whether they belong to Christ or Antichrist.
The choice will be Antichrist’s SSN or eternal security through Christ. If the Antichrist is to have total control of every sale or purchase, cash must be eliminated so that there will be a record of every transaction. If cash were permitted under the reign of the Beast some commercial activities could be done outside the system. The Beast could not control the buying power of every citizen if even a few deals were closed in cash. Thus, we are seeing today, the worldwide use of plastic cards as the only natural and necessary step to a cashless society. Cash will be eliminated during the reign of Antichrist as a counterfeit of Christ’s millennial kingdom soon to come.
There is a growing demand today for a cashless society. The safety and security that non-Christians will seek in accepting the Antichrist and his system is a false security and a false salvation.
We have ATM’s at banks and all sorts of credit cards that store information on us in their computer databases. Bankers want a cashless society, not only ATM’s but EFT’s (Electronic Funds Transfers). There are also debit cards which immediately transfer funds from your bank account to the store’s account – no cash moves. We are told if we eliminate cash, we eliminate crime – nonsense.
But the greatest problem facing cashless planners is making sure the person with the smart card is the person to who it rightfully belongs. So we now see emerging a Biometric I.D. System that uses physical characteristics to identify people. Two popular systems are thermal face prints and retinal eye patterns and hand recognition I.D. systems. So the face and the hand are already being used to I.D. a person and allow transfer of electronic funds. The ultimate biometric tool is the implantable biochip. A tiny chip implanted in the forehead or the right hand will serve as the “one” single number that a person will use for all transactions. A scanner will read the chip’s number in you and allow the sale. It will be like a technological tattoo and far better than the number that the Nazis marked indelibly on arms of concentration camp prisoners.
666 is the prisoner number that the Beast places on all his unsaved prisoners. There will be a total loss of freedom with the tracking number on you. The world will be one huge prison and the Beast is the warden with total control- total electronic enslavement. A virtual cyber prison that imprisons the world.
Each human soul, because of enslaving sin, is in the prison house of his body. “Bring my soul out of prison that I may praise thy name.” (Ps.142:7) Only the blood of Jesus Christ can redeem him and set him free. “If the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36) Like the prison bars in the bars of the bar code system in wide use today, pointing to the electronic enslavement of the Beast.
The Devil has been conditioning and programming us to become a number and not a name. This last century has seen us increasingly numbered. We started with the SSN in 1935 and now everything in our lives revolves around this number. The Social Security System was the basis that permitted our present I.D. culture and it now has permeated itself into every avenue of our daily activities. It is the standard identifier used on records. Most people acquire a SSN at one year old and it can’t be duplicated or changed. The SSN is truly the national identifier and you cannot buy or sell indirectly without it because you can’t get a job without it.
In addition to the SSN, we have telephone numbers, zip codes, house and address number, credit and debit card numbers, driver’s license number, library card number, school card number, bank number, etc. All our bills and transactions have a computer number on them. All these numbers are precursors of the Mark of the Beast that will be consolidated into one number that’s inserted in your forehead or right hand (the parts of the body that are uncovered and easily accessible) for a positive I.D.
The number 666 is the international code which activates the world computer and is being used now. Every person’s number will begin with the digits 666. The next three digits will probably be 110 which is the national code which activates the U.S. computer. Next will be your local telephone area code and then your nine digit SSN making a total of 18 numbers. This will identify every single person on earth. For instance: 666-110-602-383-42-7961.
The number 666 is the number of worldly man. It stands for the world without God. The world in all its fullness, with all its powers, but without God. God’s number is 7. The perfect complete number. Man will always be a 6 without being born again. He’s incomplete and at enmity with God. God created the world in six days. And man on the sixth day, but a full week is not expressed in “6”, but in the number “ 7”. Amen.
All the worldly people of sin who refuse salvation in Christ will receive the Mark of the Beast. It marks him as a worldly unsaved man. “If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.” (John 15:19) “All the world wondered after the Beast.” (Rev.13:3) The devil is called “the prince of this world..” (John 14:30)
Consider this: this world weighs 6.6 sextillion tons (that’s 6.6 with 21 zeroes). There are 6 billion people now on earth after 6000 years. Time is measured in 60 seconds and minutes. This world revolves at a speed of 66,600 mph as it revolves around the sun in 365 days.
The world is shaped like a ball. This world is a huge ball, covered with rock and soil and surrounded by air. It’s an 8000 mile diameter ball. Is it any wonder that worldly man loves ball games from big basketballs, soccer balls, footballs, tennis balls, baseballs, and golf balls.
Hear the winning scores of tennis: 6-2, 6-3, 6-4. Hear a winning score of golf: 6 under par 66. A football touchdown is worth 6 points- short of a perfect seven. In order to get 7 points, you need a one point conversion over the crossbars. Man’s completion comes at conversion by getting saved at the cross of Christ. We go from a “6”to a “7”. Amen.
The wisdom of this world that man has achieved after 6000 years of eating from the tree of knowledge culminates in the technology that invents the computer. 666 is the computer digit that marks every unsaved person of this world. The mark enslaves him. He is held captive by his own sins of eating of the tree of worldly wisdom, totally controlled by the Beast. “The wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.” The Mark of the Beast will be a computer digit. It will control our destinies- God forbid it!
Internet- the world computer network produces a one world government with the lastworld dictator and one world religion and a world cashless money system. Nobody will be able to buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast.
Already we see millions of Hindus with the mark of the Devil in the middle of their foreheads. These devotees call it the mark of their idol god, but it is in truth the mark of the Devil who is behind the idol. The world will be so deluded (2 Thes.2:11) that they will call the mark -666- the mark of God.
I saw thousands of devotees of their football idols at Clemson, S.C. get their faces and hands marked with orange tiger paws. Did you know that a tiger is a beast?
Yes, the Mark of the Beast is soon to come. The world is being conditioned and programmed to receive it. The cashless, economic system of global electronics enslavement is ready now. We await the last world dictator to implement it.
Are you saved? Are you ready and watching? Do you have the Holy Spirit of Truth so you can know these things? Receive the Lord Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Ye must be born again. If you don’t get truly saved, you will take the Beast’s mark.
If you want to be saved, “Call upon the name of the Lord (Jesus).”
First – Repent of you sins - turn away from your wicked ways.
Second – Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ in your heart.
Third – Confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and give your testimony.
“For by grace are ye saved through faith: and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Eph. 2:8-9)
If this is done in truth, you will now be a new creature in Christ-born again and a child of God.

******************
“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.
“Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man: and his number is six hundred threescore and six.”
(Revelations 13: 16-18)
