Are Stablecoins and Biometrics Paving the Way for the "Mark of the Beast"?

 

Image credit: Are You Ready for a Smart Tattoo? – The Latest in Wearable Technologies

16 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: 

17 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. Rev 13 

We all know the mark is coming because God says it will, but it is another matter altogether when it is “knocking on your door.” I ran across an article that presents information about the coming stablecoin digital ID financial system that I liken to the mark “knocking on the door.” Here are some pertinent parts. 

Following the creation of a digital dollar framework in July, the Trump administration is now creating the tools needed to facilitate those digital dollars, also referred to as stablecoins and tokenized asset deposits, as it seeks to create a nationally approved digital ID system for the U.S. that can safely store Americans’ tokenized ‘money’ and digital assets… 

this brings us full-circle to the digital IDs. In order to make this new financial paradigm work, “privacy tools,” as the White House calls them, are needed to ‘protect’ the end-users. “Regulated intermediaries need to be able to identify customers, report suspicious activities, and freeze or block certain transactions in line with their BSA and sanctions obligations,” writes the Working Group.20 To do this, they recommend biometric digital ID - exactly what the United Nations is calling for… 

So, while the country is once again enamored and distracted with the culture wars and the bread & circuses, the Trump administration is preparing to instigate forms of digital IDs to store these tokens and new forms of “money” called stablecoins, a privatized CBDC.

So, it is easy to see that it is coming—a digital ID and digital money is “knocking on the door.” When will all of this come about is the question. 

The Bible does give us a time frame for its occurrence; it tells us that the mark comes about after the opening of the fifth seal and the takeover of the world by the antichrist. Further from my research I believe it will most likely be in the near future and probably after some kind of financial calamity, such as Seal 3.

And how is the economy doing?



The mark is coming, and it will probably be part of the antichrist's "solution" to the world's collapsed economy. And all who take the mark will incur a terrible fate. 

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Rev 14 

Most Christians believe that they will not be here to see the mark of the beast. However, this is not true, Christians will be here, because the rapture will not occur until the sixth seal is opened. 

This was made clear by God through the apostle Paul in his address to the Thessalonians. You see the Thessalonians wrongly thought that they were in the Day of the Lord period and that they had missed the rapture. Paul corrected their wrong belief by telling them that certain events must occur BEFORE the raptue and the Day of the Lord. 

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thes 2 

So God tells them that the falling away, the revealing of the antichrist, and the abomination of desolation must occur before the Day of Christ/rapture. 

The mark is coming and it will be before the rapture. Let us seek the Lord now in prayer as to how best to navigate through that tumultuous time when we will not be able to buy or sell. 

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

What You Might Not Know About the Rapture: According to Jesus

 


In Matthew 24 the disciples asked Jesus about the end of the world and Jesus gave them an overview of what would happen and in what order the events would occur. And he specifically told them what events would precede His return at the rapture. Let’s listen to the Word of God and see what it reveals. 

1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 

2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 

Tribulation; Seal 1 to 4 

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

 

Great Tribulation; Seal 5

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. 

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 

25 Behold, I have told you before. 

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

 

Seal 6 

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

 

The Rapture 

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 

37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 

Jesus made it clear that the rapture occurs after the Sixth Seal is opened. Why do so few believe it? Maybe it is because they have been taught the wrong thing for so long that they are unwilling to listen to what Jesus actually said.

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

God Told Me This About the Rapture

 


And God said… 

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 

For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 

Wherefore comfort one another with these words. 

But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 

For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thes 4:15 – 5:11 

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come: Acts 2:20 

And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 

And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 

And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 

For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev 6:12-17 

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

This Rapture Video Will Shake You to Your Core; the Timing of the Rapture Revealed!

 


I decided to put a little more effort into making videos for the sole fact that they usually reach a lot more people than a written article. So here is one that the Lord laid on my heart to make for everyone. Let’s share it wide and far, maybe we can wake a few people up before it is too late. I have not made a video for a while, for one, because they take a long time to make, like this one did. If you have any suggestions for improvements. please comment below.

Ready or Not; Here Comes Planet X and the Rapture



12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. Revelation 6

What could cause a worldwide earthquake that will move every island and mountain, what could blacken out the sun, what could turn the moon red, what could split the atmosphere and cause it to roll away? My answer; those events will most likely be caused by the passage of a large celestial object, which many call Planet X.

I am not the first to put forth the theory that Seal 6 may involve a Planet X passage. Assuming this will be the case let’s reason this out further and consider when this event might occur? From the scriptures above it is clearly evident that it will occur after the Sixth Seal is opened.

When will the Sixth Seal be opened? After the midpoint of the 70th Week. Seal 5 starts after the Abomination of Desolation, which occurs right after the midpoint. Thus Seal 6, which follows, will also occur after the midpoint.

Whenever Planet X does show up, that is also the time that I look for the rapture to occur.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Notice in the events of the Sixth Seal that men hide because they see the face of Jesus appear in the sky and they are scared to death. What major end times event occurs when Jesus appears in the sky? The rapture, as clearly shown in these verses.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Verse 29 starts off talking about the great tribulation persecution of Seal 5 and then describes the events of the Seal 6 Planet X passage. Verse 30 describes the last event of Seal 6—Jesus appearing in the sky. Verse 31 describes the rapture.

Still not sure about the Sixth Seal timing of the rapture? Here is a scriptural proof of the fact that the rapture will not occur until after the Sixth seal is opened.

It is clear from Thessalonians that the rapture is part of an event called the Day of the Lord.

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 2 Thes 2

15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thes 4:15-5:2

Thus scripture says that the rapture is part of an event called the Day of the Lord. Scripture also tells us when the Day of the Lord will occur.

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come: Acts 2:20

Thus the Day of the Lord occurs after the moon is turned to blood. When is the moon turned to blood? After the Sixth Seal is opened.

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

Thus the Day of the Lord occurs after the moon is turned to blood after the Sixth Seal is opened. And there it is proved; since the rapture is part of the Day of the Lord, the rapture must also occur after the moon is turned to blood after the Sixth Seal is opened. Now the question is; will you accept it?
