Revelation 13
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 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, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. note
16 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: note
17 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.
18 Here is wisdom. 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.
Revelation 14
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, (Compare)
10 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 he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 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, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
Revelation 16
1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. (Compare)
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.
I am so sick of people talking about the mark of the beast but not mentioning that the antichrist has to come first before the mark of the beast it is so clear from the context of revelation 13
What annoys me is that Christians do not read the bible , as it talks about the beast making an image and people worshiping that image . I do not have a clue what that is.
In revelation 14 it also talks about worshiping the beast.
As I come from a computer science most people have being refering recently to id2020
https://id2020.org/
Which is definitely a system for people to be digitally catalogue and with the recent scare of the coronavirus it definitely seems that they want to catalogue people
Most people think that RFID will be the key the problem is that RFID can be hacked fairly easily

I find it so hard that most prophecy experts have no clue on tech
I would think that DNA storage would more be the way the mark of beast would go

As it talks about a mark on the right hand
There are shops like the Amazon go shop that you can pay without anything just your phone
Most schools now are paying with there finger you have to pay with your finger and some places
What I find is that people get so hit up on the technology but not on the bible as there can be no mark of the beast without the beast
I get so annoyed as with bible teachers saying that the covenant is a seven year peace treaty in Israel where no in the bible does it say that
I wish people would read there bible rather than prophecy conjecture
With this coronavirus it seems that they are pushing for a global government
