The Mark of the Beast Has Not Arrived Yet, So There is Still Hope for Everyone

The Mark of the Beast Has Not Arrived Yet, So There is Still Hope for Everyone DAN CORNER/EVANGELICAL OUTREACH via Charisma News Over the last couple of months, various influential voices have presented as news the RFID chip used in Sweden as the way that the mark of the beast of Rev. 13:16-18 will be coming. These “news” stories are misleading—a red herring and a decoy to steer our focus away from the real mark of the beast—the long-planned Microneedle Patch Vaccine and its scannable Quantum Dot Tattoo (QDT) mark that…

A Light to the Nations

A Light to the Nations by GLENN PACKIAM for Christianity Today Read Matthew 2:1–12. Who is the Good News for? When we get deals and offers in the mail, they sometimes call their sale or promotion a “friends and family” special. Some things are too good to keep to yourself, but they’re also too radical to open up to everyone. This marketing approach highlights how we’re conditioned to think that if something is exclusive—if we somehow have insider status—it’s valuable. And conversely, if it’s universal, it’s not. That’s what makes…

Spiritual Warfare General Asks, ‘What Does the Bible Really Say About the Unborn?’ by BRAD TUTTLE for Charisma News Many years ago, we had a pastor that would always say: “What does the Bible say about it?” Viewing the current pollical landscape, voting record and listening to the ongoing narrative, even among Christians, I have to ask myself … “Isn’t it time to start asking that question again?” Over the years, God has given me scripture after scripture dealing with pre-born babies.
