Followers (of Christ),
I recall some cool action-adventure movie themes and titles, Marked for Death was one. If one looks too far ahead into some future scenarios about prophecies, especially when all that's abuzz about "Anti-Christ", "Mark Of The Beast", the final empires and the highway to hell about "666" (a U.S.company started micro chipping it's workers which set off fire alarms for many) and future world wars with possible new orders emerging from the ruins of....you wonder if we are all "marked for death". We forget, of course we are, all humans are appointed to live, and to die. The scriptures speak very clearly what happens to those who take the "Mark Of The Beast". If one is to follow the themes of classic good vs evil theme and separating the godly from the ungodly, letting the false ways of mankind's own kingdoms rules and systems run their course to the end, it is true for a great many...to be marked for death. The heads going to roll, be chopped off for failing to submit to the dark side Christ warned us about, not submitting, not caving in to the fraud and alliege.... or even to buy, sell or trade. Not even and no matter how much sense, efficiency, or even how much crime can supposedly be reduced and how promising the "mark" is. Yet, is that the only outcome one has? Can one beat the system of this world coming, and choose to come out being instead..."Marked for Life"? Sealed in the Spirit...even the Mark of the Holy Spirit? Marked 4 life is a tattoo description too, but....what I speak of, comes from within you heart and mind, way deeper than skin deep.
IMAGE OF THE BEAST THE THINGS WHICH SHALL BE HEREAFTER. 129 and them which dwell therein to worship the First Beast. He also has power to give life, and in this he imitates the Holy Spirit. Andas the followers of Christ are sealed by the Holy Spirit until the Day of Redemption (Eph. 4:30)so, the followers of Antichrist shall be sealed by the False Prophet until the Day of Perdition.Rev. 13: 16-17
The Other Side To The Story
Hollywood and professional religious spooksters put so much emphasis to the "Satan-Devil-Anti-Christ-666" distortions, that Lucifer did and does pretty good at the box-office ratings and never left the minds of most Americans. So much gets dedicated to the dark side, you tend to forget the other side of the story. Your fears are really what stole the show,...and the credits never stopped rolling on all the "bad stuff" coming, the curses, plagues, bowls of wrath and apocalypse that the real story....the main event is forgotten. Anti-Christ and Mark Of The Beast outsells peoples attention to the main event and prize winners shows of rather being sealed by the Holy Spirit. Blue pill, or red pill...hurry up, are you going to take the mark of the beast or not? "Uh mark of the beast...bad....hmmm, ok again now, ...what are my other choices?". Being sealed by the Holy Spirit.
Actually, seek yee first the Kingdom of God, seek yee first getting the sealing of the Holy Spirit, then let facing off with the other stuff fall into line after that. Get your priorities right and straight first is whats being said.
It is weird, confusing to most. Really it is. We get the picture from the beginning of Heaven...battle, cast out and a final battle on earth. Most desperately trying to figure out the confusing, yet simple issues that it boils down to which side of double yellow line on the road to eternity they will be going...up, or down. It is about ownership, who (what, or which side) you alliege to. The Governments of mankind and gargantuan and earth wide religious institutions of spiritual fraud, and all that kind of infamy when it is cast down, or...God.
The whole idea here, is to give good and God your focus and attention, not bad, devil, demons, cast out beings and entities, darkness and evil. It is not that the bible authors write up the warning scripts for no reason, and yes, we are the age it speaks to and dark side does have it's powers here in this realm and place, but...in the eternal bucket of sand,...the darkness, however real and potent it seemingly is temporarily if you let it distract you, is just a single grain that slips through your fingers on your way back into Gods hands. Keep your focus to God and his goodness or the dark side "stole the show". So how do we do this,...what is it to be marked for life in the spirit of the Holy Spirit?
What Does The Bible Say?
To begin with, I simply want to emphasize that by following Jesus we get the Holy Spirit by allowing, and by asking. The Holy Spirit has been known to reveal power to those who were before Christ even and even non-believers who are witnessed of God. I have experienced the spirits powers many times myself. All the darkness and power and man kinds twisted self rule schemes and fake peace planned and this worlds Mark of the Beast isn't going to last too long (not by earth history standards, or eternity). It will all fall, and if you are around to enjoy it...that all comes under the past and held and bound down. Stick with the winning side, and it will be subjugated, even under you in due time. "For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool" Mark 12:36
"Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts".-2 Corinthians 1:22
The "seal" of God, the Spirit is seeking God in earnest and being sealed, bound, pledged to God. There is roughly 12 bible verses that give this description of the seal clicking this link right here.
We get the impression from many sources the Mark of The Beast is a mark, a chip implant that goes into a person, or a renunciation of Christ to avoid instant decapitation and then following another belief system as something that shows ownership or allegiance. Or following after a worldly government system of man kinds rules instead of Gods rule through the force of central or international banking schemes. In fact, its clear. Yet, is it also the same that there will be a "mark" for the Holy Spirit put upon us if we "just say no" to the "Mark Of The Beast", we get to choose to accept another power brand of mark that is from or for the Holy Spirit? I actually used to think so when I was younger. It seemed weird. I even asked a lot of my friends who are supposed to be studied in religion and the scriptures what they feel the Mark or the seal of the Holy Spirit is, what they think it looks like, or how one goes about acquiring it. I used to wonder "Ok, mark of the beast chip people on the left to get that chip injected into you, and mark/seal of the holy spirit people on the right to get that chip injection" type of scenario. It is not too far off though from the fact you need to decide which way you will go, except no chip implant...the seal of the Holy Spirit is given by God and it is not something you scan at the register to gain system acceptance to buy, sell or trade. Quite the opposite actually.
It is God....Jesus Christ who seals us. The Spirit sealing occurs from inside...in our hearts. None of this practice of drawing a cross on the forehead, lining up to get dabbed with a secret symbol on our head...no. "....The earnest of the Spirit in our hearts" exactly as Corinthians describes.
How do you get "the seal" of The Spirit into your heart? Focus, study, diligently seek, apply his teachings, laws, keep the covenant. Even be willing to die just saying "no" to going along with the system that will seek to put it's chip into your body as your allegiance and showing you are owned under the other sides authority instead of Gods. Yet, also being willing to live without their mark if you don't die, and knowing it might not be easy....if not even short term hell on earth while others seemingly indulge.
The Hebrew word "Tefillin" is a black band with a tiny box the scrolls of Gods words are put in, and worn on the forehead so it gets into your head and seals the Spirit to you. Point being, you study his words, take them as real, and place them deep inside your mind and heart as the journey to get and "seal" The Spirit to you. Meditate upon his words, read, memorize,bind his ways to you and be cleansed through the Son. Follow Gods system, seal the Holy Spirit and be owned by God....not the new world systems coming. Put the word of God into your mind and stay true to that course.
Get marked for life, get sealed in the Spirit to God. "They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads". Revelations 9:4
Forget about Mark of the Beast, until you re-new and get your seal of The Spirit first.
Be sealed!

| No picture or image can truly describe the Holy Spirit, I almost did not put a image or picture because the divine nature of the peace, the power, and the intensity of it is beyond our grasp. You can experience the spirit, witness the spirit, call on the spirit the spirit can come to you....like a divine wind and force it can be manifested. Yet....there is no image that does justice....except I like this one from Cathedra Petri in Vatican City. I do not ascribe to the things or teachings it is found among, but this one picture can remotely resemble what it is like when the Spirit comes in peace and power in a direction toward you if you have ever had that experience...it is life changing. |
