Bible Note: To all , I was raised as a Baptist . I honestly believe that John was descibing a definate mark, tatoo or something to that nature for use of i.d. of some type. He did only know of what he knew in 1st century world, but I believe that God told him how to descibe this "mark." Also alot of what he saw was not disclosed, because of our human nature and knowledge God knew we would aquire over the many years of life today. Remember God knew we all would be discussing this topic at this time and knew all, and knows all previous and future responses. We being human will aways fret or search for answers unknown, I think it is viewed to Him as something for us to do. Love in Christ, Tashina |
