Mark of The Beast

[JohnD]

God did in fact commission Moses to build the Tabernacle. But Solomon built the Temple on his own.

Hebrews 8:5 (KJV)
5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

No mention of Solomon or the Temple here.

Dear Brother JohnD, what of:
1 Chron 28:5 And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
1 Chron 28:6 And he said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

 

[JohnD]

Davidic testimony.

David also said the reason he was not the man to build the temple was that he was a warrior / shed blood. 1 Chronicles 22:8 and 28:3.

David and Solomon were convinced Solomon was the one to build the temple of God. Read Solomon's dedication (1 Kings 8).

The only recorded reference David could have been referring to was:

2 Samuel 7:12-13 (KJV)
12 And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
13 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

Solomon's Kingdom did not last two generations and would have been torn from him were it not for God's favor of David.

Zechariah 6:12-13 (KJV)
12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

Matthew 16:18 (KJV)
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

1 Corinthians 3:16 (KJV)
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

I have debated rabbis on this point and their only final recourse was to lapse back on to human tradition "since it happened it must be righteous." So said the Nazis. He was a bit upset with that analogy but it is true. You cannot base truth on human tradition (this is why the Church has so many problems).

i think time will tell what the mark of the beast is. we all may have different interpretations or beliefs of what it is but i believe we can all agree on one thing concerning the matter.

There has never been a time when the whole world was forced to receive a mark or symbol or numbers and if they do not take it they can not buy or sell.

So when that time comes when the whole world is being forced to take a mark or die. then u know that is the mark of the beast. just watch for it.

Dear Brother JohnD, what of:
1 Chron 28:5 And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
1 Chron 28:6 And he said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

Indeed.

Moses (Law) and temple
Solomon (Rich man) and temple
Rebuilt temple by a BROKEN people, which was far more glorious!

Each beautiful in their respective showings. And yes, all by intentions Divine.

Stephen tells us that it was Jesus that was carried in the first wandering.
We see The Glory of the Lord descend upon the second.
We see the broken people setting the walls straight by plumb line.

So many beautiful showings.

Merry Christmas all of you.

Dear Brother JohnD, what of:
1 Chron 28:5 And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
1 Chron 28:6 And he said unto me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

That pretty much settles it.

The antichrist starts the Mark of the Beast. And since the Mark of the Beast has not been yet, it is therefore to come. If then the Mark of the Beast is yet to come, then the antichrist is also yet to come. simplicity, even children can grasp this Truth.
It is in God's plan that the antichrist appear and fulfill prophesies as they are written. God is not going to reveal WHO is the antichrist, if He did, He would indeed be cheating, and showing favoritism. Part of the test is for us not to be deceived by the antichrist. We are told in the Word of God what to look for so as to not be deceived into believing the antichrist is something other than what he is. God will not reveal the who the antichrist is, not even to His chosen prophets. Please read my article below by clicking the website and see what God has revealed to me about the mark of the Beast. However if you want me to tell you the vision that i had concerning it, email me. But please be patient with my response, i answer emails in the order that i receive them, and some take precedence over others, such as someone about to kill themselves or the like.

I consider such presentations fear mongering.

The anti-Christ has ALREADY BEEN revealed to be a wicked spirit, of which many were already in the world at the time John penned these words of fact:

1 John 4:3
And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Any believers sitting around waiting for a MAN anti-Christ to show up will be sorely disappointed. That wicked spirit was unleashed upon the world long long ago. It's wicked spiritual directives became focused against CHRIST after His Arrival in flesh, hence the ANTI-CHRIST spirit designation.

Kind of long, But, for those who listen, so worthwhile!

I have not listened to this, but have no problem doing so.I would like to comment on the Mark of the Beast. What are the markings of a beast? Are they not self survival no matter if they have to kill, steal, destroy? Cain who was the first murderer was a self survivor and it cost him the comfort and safety of God in his life. He was sent out to the land of NOD or sleep, darkness without God's guidance. He killed his brother Abel to be top dog, not by raising his standards as God suggested to him, but by lowering the completion by having his righteous brother out of the way to hopefully gain God's favor for him. Notice it didn't stop there, he had a son and more pride came into play as he named the first city after his son? A mark was put upon Cain so that other's would know not to kill him.
Obviously this mark was not visible to the naked eye but a spiritual mark. It should not go unnoticed that even though Cain killed Abel, Adam nor Eve returned evil for evil for they did not having willing hearts to kill. Not even God laid a hand on Cain, for God uses willing men to bring hell and torment to ones life for judgment, and there were none available, (we would do well to allow this to be our mindset). But Cain could no longer live in the presence of God for he now had taken on the mark of the beast, to walk crooked in life, lame and now blind(asleep in darkness) in the land of Nod.
The image of Christ is the attributes of Christ... Just as the image of the devil is the attributes of a beast(animal) as man becomes more and more dangerous to be around for they have become without form(Order/lawless) walking in darkness(spiritually blind)knowing more and more evil, Void(empty of true love for the creation of God. We need to stop looking for the anti-Christ and realize that he lives in everyone who rejects the Word of God as the Lord of their LIFE. Even in your own family, just as Cain and Abel. Cain/Can do better, but refused) But became jealous of his own brother, because he was ABEL/ABLE.

Brilliant insights on Cain and the wicked one, bound together in the same lump that a flesh man will see only as Cain. The wicked one, the anti-Christ spirit is not viewable. And yes, slumber inducing indeed.

I think you have pinpointed the location of the anti-Christ rather successfully blazing.

The anti-Christ is a spirit. And that spirit resides in the hearts of every captive.

Therefore is the call to arms raised for all who see.

Romans 12:21
Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

This is also who the giants are in the story of Noah, they are spiritual guided by their father whom they made their god. Angels do not have flesh and blood as we have nor the capability to birth children says scripture. All beings were created by God before the fall of man and God covered them with skin and God assigned painful childbirth to Eve as part of her punishment for not knowing which tree was the forbidden tree and was therefor deceived. She thought the tree in the middle of the garden was the forbidden tree, but we know from scripture that the tree of life was in the middle of the Garden. She did not say that they were not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, but THE tree in the midst of the garden. If there where 2 trees, as some argue, then why didn't the serpent ask "Which one?"
Matt 22:28 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
KJV
The giants are those whom make them selves APPEAR larger than life, tyrants, bullies, giants of the industry who hoard all things for themselves leaving no jobs for others, who pay money for false witnessing to avoid justice, these steal, kill and destroy all in their path just as their father who is head of the fallen angels, Satan, who was/were the son's of God until iniquity was found in him. Now all who followed after him join themselves spiritually to women to produce spiritual offspring for him, just as we are made children of God by having God's Spirit guiding us, so is this how the children of the devil conceived.
1 John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
KJV
In the beginning was The Word/Jesus/The Seed of God.
Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
KJV
1 Peter 1:24
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
KJV

This is also who the giants are in the story of Noah, they are spiritual guided by their father whom they made their god. Angels do not have flesh and blood as we have nor the capability to birth children says scripture.

And again, another brilliant observation. I LIKE your style...! Yes, the infamous Nephelim were internal giants who had perverted every thought of man unto evil. And their temporal habitations were wiped out as a warning to them, just as it happened in S&G. These were both temporal warnings of 'their' forthcoming destruction. And that destruction is set, sealed, delivered and guaranteed by God. It is also a promise of the Gospel.

Believers in the carnal view look upon these matters of coming judgments with dread. And there is a certain amount of dread and judgment that will come upon us all. These are actually quite glorious matters, even if accompanied by Great Tribulation.

The End Game is Set. As is the end of the TIME of Giants in the earth.

All beings were created by God before the fall of man and God covered them with skin and God assigned painful childbirth to Eve as part of her punishment for not knowing which tree was the forbidden tree and was therefor deceived. She thought the tree in the middle of the garden was the forbidden tree, but we know from scripture that the tree of life was in the middle of the Garden. She did not say that they were not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, but THE tree in the midst of the garden. If there where 2 trees, as some argue, then why didn't the serpent ask "Which one?"

I've always suspected that the Tree of Life could not be seen by flesh people, Adam and Eve, or that would have been the first one they would have ran to and eaten from, if they had any sense. They were in fact already infected with bad eyesight and spiritual slumber long before the fall.

Matt 22:28 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

Again INDEED! The reality of Gods Resistance is quite alive and actively showing right here, right now, today, after the patterns that have already been set forth in the scriptures, and has been from the beginning. Those who see will see God, Alive, NOW, in raising up showings of the resistance parties in 'external fashions. More than I can track and keep count of. But of course these are not the 'heart' of the issues. The real problems have always been within, from the beginning.

Now all who followed after him join themselves spiritually to women to produce spiritual offspring for him, just as we are made children of God by having God's Spirit guiding us, so is this how the children of the devil conceived.
1 John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

In the beginning was The Word/Jesus/The Seed of God.
12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
KJV

The spiritual replication of the children of the devil started here and continues here:

Mark 4:15
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

This is how the anti-Christ spirit made and makes slaves of all people and how we are all born into our flesh life, blinded, by the god of this world. The above was the reality of the FIRST OFFENSE in man, in Adam and more precisely in his inner man, Eve. It is always the inner man who is deceived. The external carnal flesh man doesn't even know he is deceived. He's simply blinded. He couldn't tell deception was within if his life depended on it.

If we see the difference, we know where and how to swing the sword, to properly DIVIDE.

Interesting matters aren't they?

 

[4afaithfulone]

God did in fact commission Moses to build the Tabernacle. But Solomon built the Temple on his own.

Hebrews 8:5 (KJV)
5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

No mention of Solomon or the Temple here.

Not sure where this topic began in the topic of the mark of the beast so I am going to jump in here.
Who is the True Temple being built by? And it is true, David was not allowed, by God, to build a house for Him, as David was a man of war willing to kill and had shed much blood. Now I know what I am about to reveal is not well accepted, but the truth none the same and truth is what we MUST seek, because to hide from the truth, doesn't change it but only leaves us deceived as Eve was and we just keep on feeding on the tree that teaches us how to do good and evil:
I ask, what does this say for those who claim to be Christian, but shed blood as a man of war even killing Christian brothers in other nations for their earthly country, when we are not supposed to be of this world? How can they be part of the temple of Jesus' holy body?
1 Chron 28:3 But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood.
KJV
Mark 14:58
58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.
KJV
Zech 6:12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
KJV
1 Cor 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
KJV
John 2:20-21
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
KJV
This is why Jesus said one greater that Solomon is here, because while Solomon was chosen to raise up an natural temple for God. Jesus himself was the temple built by God without natural hands.
The body of Christ is made up of believing Jews and Gentiles as the One new man, spoken of as ONE, yet many members just as a nation. A nation always has a female name or called a Her, yet the people are the children of the nation and the land is called a Her. Take Jacob for instance. Jacob was not only called Jacob, but Israel "The Woman". The 12 sons were the children of the Woman/Israel. God was also married to Samaria as the scripture reads here just for an example:
Ezek 23:2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:
3 And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity.
4 And the names of them were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters. Thus were their names; Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem Aholibah.
5 And Aholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbours,
KJV
Here is what I mean, in the end the son's shall marry the land of Jerusalem says the scripture:
Isa 62:4 Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
5 For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
6 I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,
KJV

All glory to God for His revelation of His Son/The Word to us!
Men are called trees, in fact you will find this interesting and should be able to understand of whom this tree is, and notice that he exalted his height as in a giant:
Ezek 31:8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.
9 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him.
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
KJV
Jesus is the tree of life for he is the Word of life that when implanted in the midst of our hearts rebirth us into the image(attributes ) of our Father so that we can have ever lasing life. The Spirit teaches us the wisdom of the Word as a mother teaches a child of a father's ways. God while we understand Him to be "He" is all attributes of male and female, for Adam was created in the image of God, but when Adam could not find a suitable helpmeet among the beasts(as we are seeing in this day as human love is so cold, that our pets are becoming desired helpmeets over family), God divided Adam to make Eve. God is family, Father, Son and Holy Spirit which I believe to guide us as a mother.

Jesus says that the Words he speaks are spirit and are life, for the Spirit of God is the Spirit of life.The Father and His Word/Jesus are One for a man is always known by his word. This is the fruit that is produced from each of us to display what kind of person we are. Godly or ungodly fruit will be displayed which is according to the spirit/seed/bloodline of a man/person. We either say they are of bad blood, or good stock according to their family's poor or honorable actions.
1 John 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
2(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
KJV
Rev 11:11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
KJV
John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
KJV

By Wisdom(She) of God's Word, God founded the earth and heavens:
Prov 3:18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
19 The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.
KJV
Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
KJV

Prov 8:29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
KJV
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. KJV

Jesus is the Right hand of God, for God creates all things with, by and through His Word!

I do not know that there will no physical sign associated with those able to buy and sell, but I like and believe some of the thoughts presented here as to the mark of the beast.

A sign? Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them; that’s us, and the world will know those not of them.

My understanding is that man is so covetous of things in this time that they will do anything for money, they lie, cheat, steal and destroy all whom get in the way of their prosperity. This is definetly a mark of the beast that is seen in their hands(works of) and forehead(thinking)

This is nothing new.

Uh........ I hope not. Wasn't that verse speaking specifically of how to know "false prophets?"

Exactly, but we'll also know one another by the fruit of the Spirit. I reckon I did use that out of context as it were, and have over the years, but evidence of that is shown us in the following scripture.

John 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
1 Jn 3:10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
