What is The Mark of the Beast?
Purpose... Meaning
What is this “mark of the beast”? The mysterious mark of the beast is mentioned in the book of Revelation in the Bible.
God revealed to all of humanity that this “mark” is related to a fate of everlasting condemnation. Instead of everlasting life in heaven – in paradise, love and light – those who receive this “mark” will be abandoned to eternal darkness, terror, and anguish.
It should be our priority to avoid this mark at all costs. It is the goal of this ministry to help you do so.
To understand what the Mark of the Beast is, we must understand the main message of Revelation:
In order to be saved from eternal condemnation, one must believe that the righteous Kingdom of Heaven is “at hand” and repent. (Revelation 1:9, 12:10; Mark 1:14-15, 11:9-10)
That Jesus is gathering a society of people together who desire to live in harmony with their spiritual family, and while they remain on earth, bring others into that family through faith and obedience to Jesus’ gospel. (Revelation 7:9; Matthew 12:47-50)
That those in this family have NO desire to:
a. Prevent people from reaching God (Revelation 19:9; Matthew 5:9)
b. Destroy other people (Revelation 9:21; Matthew 5:7)
c. Destroy themselves (Revelation 21:8; Galatians 5:16)
They DO have a desire for good works and they DO those good works (Revelation 2:19; Matthew 7:21; Ephesians 2:10)
It is a society that is built on love – love that is defined by God’s Word of Life. It is a society that thrives on giving and generosity, promoting life rather than death, and building for good rather than destroying for evil. People who do not repent, but continue to destroy, are condemned to destruction themselves – they receive the very thing they do. (Revelation 2:19; John 10:10; Mark 12:29-31; 1 Corinthians 13:13)
The bedrock foundation of this society: Confess and believe with all your heart that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Believe that He was crucified and died because of our sins (yours and my destructive actions). Believe that He was raised from the dead by God Himself, and has been appointed as Judge of the world. Have faith that, because of His promises, you, too will be raised to new life to live forever in the kingdom – a life you have the moment you believe. (Revelation 5:9-14; Romans 8:9-11; Acts 8:37; John 5:22-23; Acts 17:31)
Be baptized and ask the Father to grant you the Holy Spirit and there will be power from God ***to do good*** – according to His will – without limit. (Revelation 2:26; Luke 11:13; Acts 2:38; Mark 12:24-25; Acts 8:18-22; 1 Corinthians 4:20)
Keep the commandments of God – Resist the Evil One (Revelation 1:3, 12:17; 1 John 2:4; 1 John 5:2-3)
Those who maintain the faith and discipline of Jesus Christ will not receive the mark, no matter what it is or what form it takes. Those who do not maintain the faith and discipline of Christ will not see the Kingdom of Heaven – and will receive the mark.
If you are looking for a chip, tattoo, implant, or vaccine, all of these things (or anything physical) are irrelevant to the purpose of its meaning. Being a sinner, unsaved, is all you need to be condemned (Revelation 21:8) – regardless of chip, tattoo, or physical mark.
