Bible Question: Revelations says youll have to put the mark of the beast on youre hand or youre forehead. youre forehead?? what does that mean and will it be 666 or something else like something not so obvious to us?? |
Bible Answer: Good question. Concerning the location (hand or forehead): The mark will be considered mandantory - no exceptions. Those who do not have a right hand may be compelled to take the mark on their forehead. Everyone has a forehead (at least everyone that I know). No one really knows what form the mark will take, but it will clearly represent allegiance to the antichrist. I don't know that it really matters what form it takes, but I think the following ideas are clearly tought: 1) It is considered mandantory. 2) It clearly signifies allegience to antichrist. 3) It allienates one against God. Many say that salvation is not possible for those who take the mark. Rev 14:9-12 Does Matthew 5:30 Apply here? And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
