Your Future (Part 3 - The Beast's Mark?)

Previously we explored the real reason the government wants the analog TV frequencies. This month we will look at the use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and just a little of what it can do. I gave a short lesson about RFID last month. I explained how the RFID chip broadcasts information, like a tiny radio station. If a computer antenna (WiFi receiver) is tuned to the right frequency, the computer can “read” the information on the chip. The RFID chip only has to transmit a number and the computer can match the number with a file of information.

RFID chips are currently used to track a variety of assets. Chips are not the only way RFID is used, the Somark Corporation makes an ink from a metal base. This metallic ink works like an RFID chip and transmits a number to a WiFi receiver when activated. RFID ink tattoos are being used on ranches and farms to manage cattle and other livestock. This special ink can be printed on a label, activated and read just like a chip. These RFID labels are being used in retail stores and by the military to manage and track their assets. (fyi – An “asset” in the military may also include people.)

Currently RFID, either by ink or by chip, is being used in to identify people. Enhanced Driver’s Licenses (EDL) containing RFID are being used near the Canadian and Mexican borders to speed the process of crossing the border. Travelers may also choose to apply for a driver’s license sized plastic Passport Card from the State Department that also contains an RFID transmitter.

In Texas, and in other states, EDL s are being merged with the owner’s bank account. Some Wal-Mart owned gas stations in Texas offer a special discount to customers purchasing fuel with their EDL. Very soon all your banking cards, identification cards and licenses will be contained on one card. This will be the first step toward human implanted identification and we have already started the moving that way.

As these RFID numbers pass by a scanner, inventory is immediately taken of every item, even if it is in a bag, a box or even a pocket. The scanner reads what items are being purchased and also reads the RFID in the Enhanced Driver’s License without having to take it out of your pocket or purse. Instantly your primary bank account is charged the cost of the items you removed from the store.

People using an RFID EDL card for their purchases will be given special treatment. They will be mailed “members only” discount coupons and special offers. They will have exclusive access to “fast” checkout lanes and skip waiting in line with the slower non-members. Stores will then put fewer cashiers on the lanes making the lines longer and slower. It won’t take much and people will be flocking to sign up for an Enhanced Driver’s License (EDL), or an implanted RFID chip, linked to their bank account.

The medical profession will also help people become implanted with RFID. Doctors are currently encouraging patients to be implanted with RFID chips because the chips can be designed to monitor glucose levels. Once a diabetic is implanted, they no longer need to prick their finger and test their blood, the RFID implant does it automatically. The reading can be sent to an insulin pump and the dosage is automatically adjusted to match the need.

Ultimately Doctors, and insurance companies, will make the RFID implant required for their patients. In addition to RFID chips monitoring blood glucose, a person’s body temperature and blood pressure can also be monitored. The military can know the condition and location of their soldiers on the battle field. Prisons could know the condition and location of their prisoners. Hospitals could monitor new born babies. Schools could monitor the health of the children. Police and Fire departments could know the condition of their employees. This list could include everyone in any occupation.

City-wide WiFi antennas can be used RFID devices to not only identify person, but also know their location. RFID implants would be used for tracking pedophiles and other criminals. The uses of RFID and WiFi are going to explode in the next few years.

Faster service at the store will not be the only benefit. The EDL will be used for identification, Door Access at home, work and cars, Clocking in and out at work, Banking, All Purchases, Toll road collections, and even to logging into the computer. Cash will become a thing of the past. Ultimately the whole world will be cashless. Not every door will use RFID enhanced EDLs but every dollar bill will only be good for a collector’s item.

After a short while, the convenience will become a necessity. It will be illegal to buy or sell something without using an EDL enhanced with RFID. Becoming a EDL holder will be the patriotic thing to do. If you don’t get one, you will be labeled un-American.

Revelation 13:16-17 says, “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: 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.”

Next, the government will require every person to have the information from their card implanted on their body, due to safety concerns. These transmitters, either using RFID chips or inks, will be embedded or tattooed onto a person’s right hand or forehead as the Scriptures say. Everyone will be forced to receive the mark. Everyone refusing the mark will be labeled a terrorist. If you do not receive the mark, you will be killed. Once the Rapture happens, implanted RFID will be mandated by the world government to monitor, track, and control the citizens of the earth.

Next timewe will examine what this means for the Christian in the fourth and final part of this series. What does this mean for Christians today? Should a Christian be implanted with an RFID device? If a Christian is implanted before the establishment of a world government, are they accepting the mark of the beast? What does the use of the RFID say about the nearness of the rapture? Until next time, keep studying the Bible.
