If you are a christian, then I'm sure you have heard the reports from some evangelicals that we are living in the end times and all this codifying is the mark of the beast. In Canada several years ago our debit cards were encoded with a micro chip and this lead me to seriously question the prophecies in the bible that talk about a one world order in the book of revelation and the mark of the beast being a form of identification that the whole population receives, in order to buy and sell. I am a firm believer in the book of revelation and bible prophecy, which lead me to study the exegesis of that famous verse in Revelation condemning all who receive the mark of the beast. This is how my thinking goes.
When you become a christian you are sealed with the holy spirit. For those of you who have not yet been saved, this means that when you are born again the holy spirit (who is God) is given to you as a deposit guaranteeing your final redemption. Salvation is like a circle that cannot be broken by any force or demonic power for that circle is God Himself and you are in that circle, that circle is Christ. If you die in that salvation, you are blessed because you enter into heaven where you await your final salvation in resurrection of all believers.
Because we are marked with the holy spirit you cannot be marked with anything else. No need to run away from the branding iron marked 666, for who you are determines your mark. The hand is a sign of that mark and your hand represents your world view. If you are born again you have a christian world view inherent in your nature and if you have never been saved you have a non christian world view marked by 666. I do not say that to frighten you but to make you question for yourselves the claims of Jesus Christ that you must be saved from God and His wrath, through the forgiveness of Jesus Christ on the cross. The only way to change your world view is through Christ. He is the door and you must walk through him, by repentance and faith.
