A lot of people have asked this question, but sadly, a lot of them have been misled, deceived
0:14
and misinformed. The problem is that they are asking the right question, but they are getting the wrong answer
0:21
So, we want to know once and for all what is the mark of the beast
0:26
What is going to happen the end times? Hi, I'm Joshua Fantado becoming Christians, and today let me share with you the three unknown biblical truths about the mark of the beast
0:44
The truth I'm about to share with you is unknown to most Christians
0:49
In fact, it is not known by the majority of people of this world. Christians are not Christians alike
0:55
That's why it is very crucial that you listen closely and watch
0:59

1:05
time. Before we proceed I just want to share with you a free Bible study guide

1:25
Without any delay let me share with you the three facts in the Bible
1:29
about the mark of the beast. Biblical truth number one, there are two beasts mentioned
1:35
in the book of Revelation. In wanting to know what the mark of the beast is, we must
1:40
first answer the question, what is the beast? Now you might be shocked, but there are
1:46
actually two beasts mentioned in the book of Revelation. Let's read about the first
1:50
beast in Revelation 13 verse 1 to 4. Then I stood down the sand of the sea and I saw a beast
1:58
rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns, ten crowns
2:05
And on his heads, a blaspheme was named. Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard. His feet were
2:12
like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power
2:18
his throne, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded
2:24
and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled. and followed the beast
2:30
So they worship the dragon who gave authority to the beast, and they worship the beast saying
2:36
who is like the beast who is able to make war with him The first beast described here refers to the Roman Empire In Revelation 13 verse 3 it says that one of his heads has been mortally wounded
2:51
This speaks to the fall of the Roman Empire many centuries ago. However, in the last days, his deadly wound would be healed
3:00
The Roman Empire will resurrect itself from ashes through the help of the great dragon
3:05
who is Satan, the devil. Its power will be centered in Europe
3:08
with the European Union as its modern-day representation. Now let's go to the second beast
3:15
We read about in the same chapter, Revelation 13, verses 11 to 14
3:21
Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon
3:28
And he exercises all authority of the first beast in his presence and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast
3:36
whose deadly wound was healed. He performs great signs so that he even makes fire
3:42
come down from heaven and earth in the sight of men. And he receives those who dwell on the earth
3:48
by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast
3:53
telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived
4:00
The second beast refers to the false prophet. So, we have two beasts
4:04
in the book of Revelation. The first beast is a Roman Empire, which will become a geopolitical and military power centered in Europe
4:14
and the second beast is a false prophet which would perform great signs, wonders, and miracles
4:20
The separation of the state and church will be eliminated at the end time
4:25
To take control of the people of the earth, the Roman Empire will use religion through the false prophet
4:32
Through their combined power, they will be able to deceive the world
4:36
and this is where the mark of the peace comes in. Those whose names are not found the book of life
4:42
would receive the mark. So let's go to the second biblical truth
4:47
Biblical truth number two, the mark of the beast is the mark of disobedience
4:52
We already identified what the beast is. Now we ask, what is the mark
4:58
Here's the simple plain truth. The mark of the beast is the mark of disobedience
5:04
to the most high God. In Revelation 13 verse 16 we read He the second beast which is the false prophet causes all both small and great rich and poor free and slave to receive a mark on the right hand or on the foreheads Notice where the mark of the beast is placed It is put on the right hand or on the forehead The right hand symbolizes a stronger and dominant hand
5:30
It is saying that having the mark on your hand means that your actions
5:35
are in accordance with the beast's will and commandments. The forehead is seen to be the source of thinking and intelligence
5:43
This shows us that those who have the mark on their forehead
5:47
would have their way of thinking to be in a sense. be in agreement with the beast
5:52
Instead of filling the mind with God's word, people under the beast's rule will fill
5:58
their minds with the diabolic things of Satan. Having the mark on their forehead and hand means that both your thoughts and actions are
6:07
controlled by the beast or are in alignment with Satan's way of life and thinking
6:14
You might ask, could it be true that the mark of the beast is like a barcode that did
6:19
on your forehead and right hand? Could it be the use of supercomputers and microchips
6:26
Could it be the COVID-19 vaccine? For now, we can tell for sure
6:32
We can speculate all we want, but at the end of the day, the Bible doesn't specifically tell us what this is
6:39
The mark of the beast could be literal mark or could be a figurative expression
6:44
However, one thing is for sure. The mark of the beast is a sign of rebellion
6:48
If you ever get this mark, it means that you are under Satan's rule rather than the rule of God
6:55
Now let's go to the third truth. Biblical truth number three, billions of people will receive the mark of the beast
7:04
Here's a frightening fact the Bible reveals about the mark of the beast
7:09
It is not only a few who will be deceived and receive the mark
7:13
It will not only be 50% in the world population. It won't be just 85% of the world
7:18
or 90%. I would say it will be 99%. Here's what your Bible says. He, talking about the beast
7:27
causes all both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave to receive a mark on their right hand
7:33
or under four heads. Revelation 13 verse 16. How extensive is this deception? Let's read earlier
7:41
verses 7 and 8. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was
7:48
given him over every tribe, tongue and nation. All who dwell on the earth will worship him
7:54
whose names have not been written the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world
8:00
As you can see the majority of mankind will be deceived and would worship the dragon and the beast This is not surprising because we read in Revelation 12 verse 9 So the great dragon was cast out that serpent of the old called the devil and Satan
8:16
who deceives the whole world? He was cast to the earth and his angels were cast out with him
8:25
Did you read that Satan didn't just deceive a portion of the world
8:29
He didn't just deceive a third, but he has deceived the whole
8:33
world. Now if you think about it, according to statistics, Christianity is considered to be one of the
8:40
largest religions in the world accounting for more than two billion people. You would think
8:45
that's impossible. How can Satan deceive the whole world when there are billions of Christians
8:51
today? Well, sadly, my friend, the majority of Christianity today isn't the same Christianity
8:58
that Yahshua or Jesus Christ and the apostles preach in the first century. In fact
9:03
In fact, Christianity has become so diluted with paganism that it has actually lost its real substance
9:11
Needless to say, the Christianity of this world isn't the Christianity described in the Bible
9:17
So, no wonder, when the end time comes, those Christians who already deceived will suffer even
9:25
greater deception and will even do the unthinkable. To worship the beast along with those people who are not
9:33
of the Christian faith. Friends, I just shared with you three biblical truths about the mark
