Two thousand years ago (Revelations 13) it was prophesied that he (meaning the antichrist) would cause all to receive a mark in their hand or forehead. And that you would not be able to buy or sell without this mark. When I read this 25 years ago, even then I thought how could this ever be possible? I couldn't imagine it, and thought it must have some other meaning. Have you seen all the news reports lately about the microchip implant that they are now starting to use for people to retain their medical info.? 80 hospitals are joining the program and they hope 200 will be participating by the end of the year. If all of our financial info. was in a microchip, there would be no more robberies. If all we had to do was swipe our hand over the bar code detectors in the stores, the stores would not even need to have cash on hand. If this was unimaginable just 25 years ago, how could anyone make something like this up 2000 years ago, unless they truly did have a vision from God? Some people may think this should go under the religion threads, but the government is going to be the ones implementing this program, not religion.
