    I know we are to follow the laws of the land but when they come out with the law to take the mark of the beast what do we do ? Do we still follow the law or break it

    Take the mark 666 or not?

    Acts 5:29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

    Revelation Chapter 16:1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

    2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and [upon] them which worshipped his image.

    Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and 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.

    Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

    You need to put The Mark in the search box as you enter this website and read all of the scriptures and even the whole chapter, to have a working knowledge of it.

    If you take it, there will be no way to gain entrance to heaven, ever.

    If you don't take it, you may be executed.

    Best option is to be born again today!

    Go watch Dwight Thompson on youtube, preaching 'what to do if you miss the rapture'. It's an old sermon but it's very relevant. I met Dwight; he's an evangelist. He cares about people's souls. You can pray the sinners prayer at the end of the sermon.

    Don't get side tracked by OPINIONS of other people.

    Good answer. Something that came to mind is people accused Jesus of breaking the Sabbath by healing someone, etc. You can be assured by Jesus' example that Jesus would not get a mark of the beast if He were on earth at that time. He would refuse and put them in their place. When Jesus was arrested he had an opportunity to make it easier by doing and saying politically correct things they wanted, but he didn't. Also satan tempted Jesus 3 times and he resisted. God comes first above man's law. If you put man first above God, it shows where your priorities are and you will be judged accordingly in the end.

    Of course Jesus would not take the Mark of the Beast. He warned us not to, in his Word. That taking it, would separate us from Him, and doom us to hell.

    We need to post this often, so people wandering into the room would be aware of the pressure to get it. Preach on Hebrews 11 and maybe examples from Foxes Book of Martyrs.

    Look at what is happening now with this virus! The hoarding, the anger at not being able to buy what you want when you want it. It's a preview! People will accept the Mark as a way of getting what they want.

    I asked the Lord if 'they' will trick us into that? He said, no. It will be a conscious choice.

    This comment forum has a duty to study this and post it to the forum as OFTEN as the subjects of Genesis, the Caught Up (rapture), and unforgivable sins of the Jews.

    As much as just those 3 topics.

    If the Rapture (caught up) is going to be preached, then give THE DETAILS !

    No one in here ever agrees on the Timing of the Caught Up. Ever wonder why?

    It's because we are supposed to preach and teach, the WATCH FOR, the LOOK UP....your redemption is close! Have your lamps filled to the top with the OIL of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of Jesus. Do be full of Jesus, and HE will draw all mankind to Him.

    You have this same responsibility to turn these discussions to more practical discussion. For ONE all water on earth is going to be turned to blood. People who scoff at salvation need to know what they are facing. I'm praying to the Lord of the Harvest to bring people to the Truth of their need.

    All of you have great ability to research the Need. What does the Bible say? What did Jesus say? Reveal Revelation. Jesus said , If I be LIFTED up, I will draw all men (and women) to ME! Children over the age of accountability (knowing good vs evil) will have to be reached too. What do soldiers say? No one Left Behind!!

    Go ye into the Prayer Request room. They need your learning; your Light.

    Danny,

    If this happens in our lifetime and you are still here, you are going to have two choices: either take the mark of the beast and (maybe) live for another 3-1/2 years, or refuse to take the mark. Those are your two choices. If you take the mark, you will be part of the antichrist's religious and economic system, which will allow you to buy food and the things you need to survive for that short period of time. Taking that mark will also mean that you have chosen to worship the antichrist. But if you refuse to take the mark, you will be killed, probably beheaded. But just keep in mind that if you choose to take the mark to save your life here, you will no longer have an opportunity for salvation. If you take the mark, you will end up in the lake of fire. If you are faced with that decision, you might want to choose Christ!
