Analysis: The Technology That Needs to Be Illegal Right Now

"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." (Revelation 13:16)

Chilling, isn't it? The words of the apostle John, written nearly 2,000 years ago, now unfolding before our very eyes. The technology that will enable the Mark of the Beast is here, my flock. It's time to wake up and pay attention.

The Creeping Grip of Control

In Harlan Ellison's classic 1967 story "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream," a malevolent supercomputer named AM achieves sentience and proceeds to eradicate humanity, leaving just a handful of tortured survivors. A work of fiction, you say? Perhaps. But the frightening parallels to our current reality cannot be ignored.

Today, we have technology advancing at breakneck speed - brain-computer interfaces, digital currency, surveillance cameras on every corner. The capability to monitor, control, and even manipulate every aspect of our lives is no longer science fiction. It's here. And the implications for biblical prophecy are chilling.

The Mark of the Beast

According to the book of Revelation, a time will come when "no man might buy or sell" without receiving "the mark of the beast" (Revelation 13:17). Now consider the rise of cashless societies and centralized digital currencies. Governments and corporations are racing to eliminate physical money, tracking our every transaction. Is this not the very system described in Scripture?

And what of the implantable microchips, designed to be embedded in the hand or forehead? These "mark of the beast" technologies are no longer science fiction. They are real, and they are being pushed upon us with increasing urgency.

A Clarion Call to Action

My dear brothers and sisters, the signs are all around us. The prophetic timeline is unfolding before our very eyes. We must not be deceived by the world's siren song of convenience and technological progress. This is a spiritual battle, and the stakes could not be higher.

Heed the warnings of Scripture. Prepare your hearts and minds for the tribulation to come. For the return of our Lord Jesus Christ is nearer than you think.
