I understand people’s apprehension about wanting to learn about the end times, ESPECIALLY if their church is not teaching anything about it. There is a sense of comfort avoiding “things that we think people really don’t know about for sure.” But we CAN know “For Sure” very important things.
Many have learned to trust their church leaders with their very salvation, and so far, this strategy has worked out pretty well for them. They have lived a “Christ Like” life because of the church, and it has been a very important part of their life.
Today, I do not challenge that fact at all, but I would like to share something with you that is important enough that your church leaders should be talking about “Loud and Clear!” It is ALL written in the Bible – For YOU to know!
There is something coming up in the next several years, that if you are “Deceived” and participate in it, You Will Lose Your Very Soul to the adversary. Yes, it is that dramatic and important. And the troubling thing is once you know what I am going to share with you; it is VERY SIMPLE not to be deceived. You’ll wonder why this information has never been shared with you before. Just by you receiving a “heads up” from today, you will not be at risk for loosing something as important as your soul.
Let me teach you about this… It is not scary whatsoever. It is just something that you need to be aware of. It is all written by Prophets of God, and recorded in the Bible. They wrote it for me and you, and all of those who are living today in the end times.
GOD wants you to know about it, for this is why He had the prophets write about it through their revelations and inspiration. We literally have details about the final 7-years on earth, yet many choose to ignore the information. Why? I will tell you why in this article.
The Mark of The Beast
If you do not have any knowledge at all about the end times, let me just give you some minimal information that explains what the mark of the beast is. Yes, minimal. The end times prophecies are volumes of information, if you will simply have the desire to learn about them.
In a matter of “MONTHS,” from today, a world leader will immerge to lead mankind into what he will declare as is “Bringing Peace to Israel, and the surrounding countries…possibly even stating that he can bring peace to the entire world. This man is called the “Antichrist.” (Spoiler alert…The stage is already set with President Trumps “Board of Peace” formed in Jan 2026. The antichrist will immerge from this group.)
The King James Version (KJV) teaches that a powerful world leader will arise before the return of Jesus Christ. The Bible often refers to him as “the man of sin,” “the son of perdition,” “the beast,” and “antichrist.” He will deceive the world, oppose God, and eventually declare himself to be God.
1. The Antichrist Will Oppose Christ
The word antichrist means one who is against Christ or who pretends to be Christ.
1 John 2:18 (KJV)
“Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”
John teaches two things:
- Many false teachers are antichrists.
- But one final Antichrist is coming.
2. He Will Be a Powerful World Leader
The apostle Paul describes him as the “man of sin.”
2 Thessalonians 2:3–4 (KJV)
“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;
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.”
This tells us:
- He will appear after a great falling away.
- He will enter the temple in Jerusalem.
- He will claim to be God.
This is the event often called the “Abomination of Desolation.”
3. He Will Rise Through Global Power
The Antichrist is also called “the beast.”
Revelation 13:7
“And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.”
This indicates:
- A global political authority
- Worldwide influence and control.
4. The World Will Worship Him (This is where things get dangerous if you don’t know about him).
The deception will be so powerful that many will follow him.
Revelation 13:8 (KJV)
“And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
Only those belonging to Christ will refuse.
5. He Will Perform False Miracles
The Antichrist will be supported by a False Prophet who performs miracles.
Revelation 13:13–14 (KJV)
“And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles…”
These supernatural signs will convince many people he is divine.
6. His Rule Lasts During the Tribulation
The Bible gives the length of his open rule.
Revelation 13:5 (KJV)
“And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.”
That equals 3½ years, the second half of the 7-year tribulation. He will be introduced at the beginning of the 7-year Tribulation period, but will not RULE until the final 3.5 years.
The reason that you need to be aware of him is what this article is all about. He will try and deceive you into worshiping you and dedicating your loyalty to him rather than GOD. He will do this in a FORMAL process known as taking the mark of the beast.
Taking the Mark of the Beast
The Bible teaches very clearly that during the Tribulation the Antichrist will establish a global system of control, and part of that system will require a mark in order to participate in society. The clearest teaching comes from the book of Book of Revelation, written by John the Apostle.
The Antichrist Will Control Buying and Selling
Scripture teaches that the mark will be tied directly to economic control.
Revelation 13:16–17 (KJV)
“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:
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.”
This tells us several things:
• Everyone will be pressured — rich and poor, powerful and weak.
• The mark will be placed in the right hand or forehead.
• Without it, a person cannot buy or sell.
This means the Antichrist will control the entire economic system of the world.
What Does this Mark Represent, and Will a Person Know What They are Actually Giving Up When They Take the Mark?
The Mark Represents Loyalty and Worship to satan!
The mark is not merely an economic tool. Scripture connects it directly with worship of the beast.
Revelation 14:9–10 (KJV)
“If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God…”
Receiving the mark is therefore:
• A declaration of allegiance to the Antichrist
• An act of worship toward him
• A rejection of God
It is both spiritual and political.
A person will know full well, that they are choosing to worship satan, rather than Jesus Christ. They are pledging their loyalty to satan. In doing so, they will receive the mark. Those who reject it and are caught will be killed.
The Bible does not fully describe the technology, but based on the text it likely involves a system that combines identity, loyalty, and commerce.
Many Bible students believe it could involve things like:
• A digital identity system
• A biometric mark or implant
• A global economic authorization
But the real meaning is spiritual:
The mark means choosing the Antichrist’s kingdom over God’s kingdom.
The Mark Will Be Enforced by the False Prophet
The Bible also says another leader will enforce this system — the False Prophet.
Revelation 13:12 (KJV)
“And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast…”
This second leader will:
• Perform miracles and signs
• Convince people the Antichrist is divine
• Force the world to accept the mark
The Number of the Beast
The Bible also associates the mark with a number.
Revelation 13:18 (KJV)
“Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”
That number is 666.
This number will somehow be connected to:
• The identity of the Antichrist
• The marking system
• The global authority structure
Believers Will Refuse the Mark
The Bible says that those who follow Jesus during the Tribulation will refuse the mark, even if it costs them their lives.
Revelation 20:4 (KJV)
“…which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands…”
These people refusing the mark will be martyred, but they will reign with Christ.
SERIOUS Consequences for Those who take the Mark
According to the King James Bible, the warnings about the mark are extremely serious. The clearest teaching comes from Book of Revelation.
What the Bible Says About Forgiveness After Taking the Mark
Revelation 14:9–11 (KJV)
“If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
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 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…”
This passage shows something very sobering:
• The mark is tied to worship of the beast.
• Those who take it receive God’s full judgment.
• The warning is given so people do not take it under any circumstance.
Because of how absolute the warning is, most Bible scholars conclude that taking the mark represents a final, deliberate rejection of God and allegiance to the Antichrist. They will dwell with satan in the “Lake of Fire” FOREVER!
I must now respectfully ask you, “Don’t you think that this is important that YOU know what is coming so you do not make such a foolish choice? Take CONTROL over your spiritual knowledge. Do not leave it in the hands of others to teach these truths to you.
I can tell you that satan and his team are very involved in keeping the end times information, that is recorded in the bible, away from as many people as possible. WHY? Because the less you know, the easier you be to be deceived. DECEPTION is the theme of the Tribulation period, and YOU and I are in the cross hairs, for satan does not want us to know what is coming.
I am not suggesting that your church is on team satan, but I am saying that satan has even influenced church leaders not to share this knowledge with others. He has tricked even them, thinking that perhaps they are sparing their members from becoming afraid, or for whatever their reason is that they are not sharing these prophetic writings is.
If this is making sense to you, please read my writing tomorrow. I want to teach you something in the prophets end times writings that will bring you TOTAL COMFORT. There is something coming in the next several days or weeks…It is the way GOD will be rescuing all of His followers from the scary things that are coming.
I’ll see you then.
