    The beast and his image: Part 4

    I won't pretend to have all the answers here; but it certainly seems we are seeing almost the end of the puzzle pieces here fitting together in 2025. Revelation 13:14 states things this way: And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

    Now MAKING an image sounds a lot like computers and people conjuring up something for themselves; perhaps making it seem unique as an identifier in that respect. The mark therefore is more than just an economic control it embodies imprisonment of the souls of men to do Satan's bidding which ends up as Psalm 2 and Revelation 19 indicate; a mad dash to consolidate men to fight in the valley of Meddigo (Armageddon). The image of the beast therefore relates to the Zechariah 11 passage beginning in verse 15. There is a real deadly wound and this image basically will be used to mock the Resurrection or a true coming back from the dead. The idea of invincibility will be made manifest due to the killing of the two prophets showing the timing before the last 2 trumpets (and after the first "woe") when men have been tormented for months and ripe for deception. Who can make war with him is indicated here; although you would think the resulting resurrection of the 2 witnesses and the terror ensuing that the whole world no doubt witnesses would change hearts; but this shows how strong the delusion from GOD will be.

    The sobering thoughts of the ultimate demise of men's souls with this infamous mark should set us all straight and we should be aghast. I strongly suggest that anyone who has not taken a sober evaluation of their own spiritual condition apart from Christ take a moment to consider these realities. No one can handle the truth without God and without Him there is no remedy.
