The Most Effective Mark of the Beast



Revelation 13:15-18
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. 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, of the number of his name. 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.

That number is 666.

Who isn’t aware of that number?  Almost anybody you come into contact with knows what the Bible says about this number.  It is the “mark of the beast”.  The Bible says those who receive the mark…  “If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 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: and the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and hey have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.” Revelation 14:9-11.

Is this the most effective mark to causing damnation?

Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the Woman, yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? What does the sentence end with? The devil asked Eve a question. What did it cause?  It caused doubt.

What is the most effective mark that was from the very beginning…

The “?” Mark.

The devil, the most cunning beast of the field, has marked God’s answers with a question mark.  That mark has deceived many and cause many to doubt what God said, therefore sending them into eternal damnation.  He caused Eve in the beginning to doubt what God said and is still just as cunning today.  In this day and hour he whispers in every human’s ear;

Can anybody truly understand the Bible?
Surely God will not really send you to hell?
Does God really care what you wear?
Do you really have to go to church?
Jesus died for your sins, is it necessary to be baptized?
Do you really have to be born again?

Many, many more! Causing doubt everyday to millions of people with questions about what God will really do!  It is so important to read the Bible for yourself.  See for yourself what God’s Word has to say about what it takes to please God.  What is says we must do to be saved.  How we should live, dress, and act.  And if we don’t how we will be punished.  The Bible has all the answers.  People today rely too much upon their own opinions and feelings to know what God has to say.  The devil is tricking them!  Is the devil deceiving you?

Remove the mark!  Read the Bible!
