I hear that the technology called RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) has been created in order to track every move you make and to buy foods, other products, services, etc. Without that technology, you will not be able to live because you can't buy anything or you can't get any service or product anywhere. This technology is going to be planted into your skin.

My question is... will you accept this technology? Do you think it will not affect our health? I am wondering because the chip must have a chemical side effect into our blood stream.
Bible mentions about this and I could not believe that our world is nearly an end time -- A time when Jesus will have to come again for the second time and He will judge us.
Revelation 13:17
"And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name."
Revelation 14:9
"Then a third angel followed them, shouting, “Anyone who worships the beast and his statue or who accepts his mark on the forehead or on the hand."
Revelation 19:20
"And the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who did mighty miracles on behalf of the beast—miracles that deceived all who had accepted the mark of the beast and who worshiped his statue. Both the beast and his false prophet were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur."
Personally, I will never and never accept this kind of technology because humans are not numbers (Every person will have a different barcode number when this technology will be implemented). This is unbelievable!! How accurate is the Bible predicting the future? But God's words must be fulfilled and God knew this would happen. I just can't help what God has said. Sigh.

I would not because it would be the beginning of the end of my soul. My health would be the least of my concerns.Demonic powers are at war with christianns at this very moment, the proof of this is all around us. Just look at Mell Gibsons life after he made the passion. Look at the news media to see how the world and average people are being turned toward satans philosophy ( do what ever feels good for me).

mogie_systems and Rozie37,
When I was a child, I couldn't swallow what it means about ... "accept his mark on the forehead or on the hand". I also couldn't understand "he bears the stamp (mark, inscription), the name of the beast or the number of his name". But now, I am getting clear about this thing.

You are so absolutely right. Satan is busy all around and I can see the true Christians starting to stand out from those who simply claim to be. God is positioning us for his purpose.
I can never get use to the things that I hear on Mylot all the time about people thinking that theu can live their lives any way that they choose to. They act as though they are not going to have to stand before God in judgement. It is nothing short of frightening.

revdauphinee,
Yes, I believe that we are indeed in the end times. But I just can't believe that we are a generation that will be in God's purpose.

No way, not me - the last thing in the world I would do is get involved in that junk, just too much like what we as Christians DON'T want...

I've heard of this technology being developed for some years now. We've been threatened with it before. I know there would be a lot of resistance to something like this. I certainly would resist it. I'm not sure we can call this the mark of the beast. People have been referring to things as the mark of the beast as long as I can remember. And people have predicted the end of the world for centuries, and none have been correct. Someday the end will come, but as Jesus says, "No one knows the day or time." So as soon as someone says, "I know when it is" they are contradicting Jesus. That is dangerous ground to be treading upon.

DanaMark,
Yes, I agree with your opinion. We don't know the day or time regarding the end times. Bible mentions this and Jesus already gave the signs when it was getting closer and closer. Thus, the children of God can fully prepare for it. God loves his children.

I agree Dana Mark! I pray that I can be caught up before I have to be faced with this issue.
Its one thing to walk into a library! Its quite another to have it placed on your hand or anywhere on your body as the bible says not to.
I heard the guy say that they technology has been around since the 1920's but it wasnt until the 2007's that the people became so nonchalant that it could make the most impact.

At first, I was wondering what RFID had to do with Religion... based on your subject heading and the fact that it was posted in religion. Then I read your entire post... and... wow.
I'm not going to get in a religious argument or anything of that sort as I think everyone has a right to believe whatever they want no matter how impractical or practical it seems.
However, I just thought I'd point this out.
For one, The technology used for RFID has been around since the 1920's and RFID systems have been used since around the 1960's. This is not a new technology.
Secondly, It's quite sad on all the things you may miss out on by not accepting a technology that has already been around for a while. You know when you go into a store and they have security tags to prevent stealing? That's RFID. If I remember correctly Disney World also uses RFID technology to sync up music with Parade floats. Also many public library systems have grabbed onto RFID in order to keep track of their collections. The public Library system I work for uses it and though I'm sure many of our patrons who love the library and use it frequently love God, I doubt any of them have stopped using the library due to the fact that we use RFID technology.
As far as RFID into people, if that's the only technology you're saying you're unwilling to accept, well then...I'd have to say that's fine to not accept. I doubt that RFID will ever be used to make humans robots and to track their every move and make you buy certain products. RFID is used for security reasons. It can be used in your pets...to keep them from getting lost. It can be used in people for security reasons.
Not to mention so far it's only a few countries that have used this technology. I'm sure everyone won't have to be implanted and that you have nothing to worry about.

*smiles* my family manages quite well buying and selling without a debit or credit card..we only use them as a last resort..which means we use them next to never..I knwo alot of people who don't have one or use thm frequently.
Better off people usually can't buy or sell without them *laughs a little* no offense to anyone, of course..just my observance.
So..no I'm afraid, the problem'll be a bit more complicated.
I won't reitarate what I already said to you though, Raychill. RFID at least presents a potential problem for serious abuse..and the way things are going, we have to be prepared for the possibility.

I'd grow my own food first! Shots for the kids are bad enough, no way are they planting stuff into this family.
It's funny you should bring this up, because I was thinking VISA was the end times thing. It has assigned numbers and you almost can't buy or sell anything without a debit or credit card these days. Its crazy!

To both of you who replied to my comment, I said NOTHING about Credit Cards so why are you speaking to me about Credit Cards?
No matter what you're probably around RFID and again, RFID has been used since the 1960's. So evil has been afoot for a while I guess right?
I'm saying, don't go to the public library there's EVIL inside. Don't go to stores where they use security tags... the beast will get you.
I'm saying RFID is in a lot of things. They're not going to make Humans into drones and even if they do I'm sure it'll be many years from now when none of us will even be alive anymore.

They'd have to hog tie me before implanting anything under my skin! We're children of the Lord, not guinea pigs for some political group of evilness trying to be like Hitler. I think we have a right to our privacy as humans. I pray that we never see the day that this happens. I do believe the Bible predicts the future very well.

Hillary Clinton suggested that Americans get implants in thier thumbs that we can all use as credit cards. I have read that same passage in revelations and I am convinced that this is what they are talking about. Im just not sure how to avoid it if you need the mark to buy things. How do we buy milk if we refuse the mark? I guess it is time to build up our food storage so we are ready.

I for one will not accept anything being injected under my skin. I am also a Christian and have been educated on the end times for many years and have seen a lot of prophesy played out in my lifetime. I remember my mother telling me about the 666 when I was a child, around the time when tv's, radios, movies were outlawed in many homes as they were from the devil. As another person also responded, that credit cards were the devils tools, and I'm sure that now, even christians use them. I just hope that people keep vigilant and listen for Gods voice on these new things that come into our world and try to shake us from the very foundation that God has given us and that is his 'word'. So thanks to all that have added to this discussion I'm sure we will have all benefited from it. God bless friendship 617, keep up the good work.

Thank you kiwikidz. God bless you, too. I think Credit Cards are the beginning of this turbulence time and credit cards may be okay but what I am really so concerned is... something that is planted into our skins because that's what the Bible mentions exactly.

I will never accept this, for the reasons you stated above, and also I believe it infringes on our rights as US citizens.
I am Christian first and foremost, and I would rather starve than take the mark. I also believe that God will care for true believers.

yeah it's true, it was already in the market and was already used in credit and bank cards. and the final implementation will be the body implants. this means that you can run but you can't hide. it was just like the size of a dust. i think the idea of Big Brother suggests RFID.
Humans are doomed! just pray, and i hope i wasn't around when it happens.

I also hope that I will not be around when it happens. Hopefully, God will help us.
