The Mark of the Beast

 

CHAPTER EIGHT

 

Calvary, Calvary, I am saved, I am saved. Thank you O’ Lord, for dying on Calvary, so we can escape the beast, his image, and his mark. That You can call us in such a dark hour, Lord, that our eyes can be opened to the deception of the antichrist today. You have brought us from all organizations, religions and walks of life and Lord, we are fleeing the mark of the beast, as we follow the Captain’s footsteps, everywhere He goes. Bless our assembling tonight, Your people that have come from near and far and faithful saints of God that will follow the shepherd even to the ends of the earth to even hear again the unsearchable riches of Christ that they are accustomed to. Bless their efforts tonight, my beloved brethren that have made this sacrifice to come and support the Word of Life, support these meetings, support their shepherd, encourage the heart of other brethren. I pray that You will bestow a special blessing upon them tonight, and above all that they might receive this great outpouring of the Holy Spirit above all things. Bless each one, Lord, great and small, young and old. We pray that You will bless the visitors within our gates, Lord, that You will give them grace and strength to continue in their Christian walk, and if they do not know You, may they find peace in Christ tonight. I pray that You will bless the brethren here from Point Fortin and Cedros and grant them grace to continue in the faith, and let O’ Lord, this tabernacle be filled with Your presence at all times, even as you have bestowed unto us a blessing tonight by your supernatural visitation. Lord, let this presence be felt in every heart, in every soul, Lord, saved and unsaved, that when we have come to the end we cannot be the same persons again. Now Lord, we pray that You will bless the Word and grant us grace, and grant us strength. Thank you for the songs of Zion, the wonderful songs of Zion, Lord, we thank you for the singers, thank you for the musicians, our brothers and our sisters. Thank you for each one tonight that is within our gates. We commit our lives with the message into your hands. Father, tonight we pray that you will come and anoint the Word as You have anointed Your people and anointed the song service, for we pray and ask these blessings in Jesus’ name. And the congregations says, [Congregations says, “Amen!] Give Him a praise offering. Thank you Saviour, thank you Lord, thank you Lord, thank you Father, thank you Father, blessed be the name of the Lord. Praise His Holy name; we give you the praise, the honour, the glory and the thanksgiving that belongeth unto Thy name, the King of kings and Lord of lords, Jesus is the name. Praise and honour to the living God. Let everything that hath breath praise ye the Lord. Thank you Saviour, praise the living God, blessed be the name of the Lord. Thank you, thank you Lord.

And in our Bibles now, we will turn to Revelation the thirteenth chapter. And while you are turning I want to take the opportunity to welcome all our brothers and sisters that have come from near and far, especially our brethren who made this effort from Central and other places, it’s a wonderful, wonderful testimony to the Lord. I believe that we are in a time of revival. I feel the revival fires just burning. It is just building up every night. And also the visitors within our gates, brothers and sisters from the organizations you are more than welcomed. And tonight we would read from the thirteenth chapter and eleventh verse.

 

Revelation 13:11-18  <And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

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, or 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.>

            May the Lord add a blessings to the reading of His Holy Words; you may be seated.

            The Mark of the Beast, this is our subject, drawn from Revelation 13, especially from the sixteenth verse:

<...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, or 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...  ‘computer.’ [Congregation says, “No!”]

<...for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.>

The mark of the beast.

 

 

Educated wrong oN mark of the beast

 

            People know very much today about what is about to come upon the face of the earth. They are very educated about the beast, but they are educated the wrong way. Likewise they are educated concerning the mark of the beast and there are millions, if not billions of people who live in fear and torment on account of the mark of the beast that is to come upon the face of the earth. They have various interpretations, one of the interpretations of the coming of the mark of the beast is taken literally where it said, “And he causeth them to receive a mark in the right or on their forehead, and unless they have that mark they could not buy and sell.” So that mark is taken literally by the theologians, by the churches, by the great Bible expositors and they make it to be a tattoo of some kind that will be on the arm, and that will be also on the forehead. And they figure out that when they take that, then they are going to turn into some kind of a ghost. There was a movie that we used to see way back when we were unsaved people called ‘Dracula’, and according to that movie you could have easily become a Dracula, in the event that a Dracula will bite you on your neck. You will still be living but now you will be living as a ghost, and living like this ghost, you yourself become a Dracula with two long teeth that comes over your lip with blood dripping. So then that will be a kingdom of Draculas, and I believe that people remember those kinds of horror movies and they bring to mind those horror movies and all those made up stories when they hear about the beast and the mark of the Beast.

            But I want to prove tonight that, that is a long ways from the truth. Others still think that the mark of the beast will be a computer chip that they put into your body somehow and then you can be tracked down wherever you are by the beast, which will be a monstrous fellow and a terrible fellow according to their interpretation. We proved that wrong many times. So they think that some how or the other a chip is going to be put into your body and you will be tracked down by this beast man. So people are afraid of all the numerals in any kind of commerce that has to do with 666. It immediately terrifies them when they see the number six. So it is bad enough for them to see one six, much more to see a second six, and a third six.

            Now all these things are so because of a lack of knowledge. “My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge, and where there is no open vision the people perish.” I have a little document here that gives you a little insight into the way that people think of the mark of the beast. It says:

 

“The New World Order, the NWO is preparing Americans to accept the number 666. At present people don’t like anything to do with this number, most Americans know that this number represents Satan, and even people who are not professing Christians don’t like it. The NWO is changing all that, the number 666 is becoming a part of our lives in a very real way, these following examples: New credit cards in the US are now being assigned the prefix 666. Central Computers for Sears, Penny Stores, Montgomery Wards Worldwide have all their transactions prefixed with 666. Computers made by Lear Sigler have a seal on the side on which is stapled the number 666. Federal Government Medical Service Employees Division is 666. IRS, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Division, the number 666 on their badges were a surprise. IRS instructions for Non-Profit Cooperation Employee 1979 W2 forms require the prefix 666. State Governments are now using 666 on their office purchasing paperwork. President Carter’s new Secret Security Force patches have 666 on them. Elementary Algebra Textbooks is entitled 666 Jellybeans. United States Selective Service Cards have 666 on them. The numerical value of the word ‘computer’ is 666.  The numbers 666 are also the ‘base cheque digit’ of the International Computerized Financial System, 666 is contained in every UPC code, 666 is used as a hidden code on every credit card.”

 

 

Satan’s plan to deceive by 666

 

            This is quite a picture; I believe that did not happen by chance. I believe that all those things are carefully planed and designed by Satan to sidetrack the people, that while they are looking on their electrical bill and telephone bill and credit card and all these numbers in every sector of the government, and while they are concentrating on 666 here and thinking that is the mark of the beast they are already in line up for the mark of the beast, or they have already taken the mark of the beast and not knowing that’s the mark of the beast. And I want to make a very contrary statement tonight here, if you have not heard this revelation before and that is the number 666 is not visible to people that receive the mark of the beast. The number 666 would not be visible to people who receive the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast is a spiritual mark and not a literal mark that can be seen. The very scripture brings that out, that it takes wisdom to count the mark of the beast. “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.” If it is a literal number 666 you do not need any heavenly wisdom to read it. Any little child that knows a little bit in school will be able to say 666.

I want to tell you that Satan is not so foolish. Satan is wiser than what people are thinking. I believe that he has the whole world today, the intellectual world, the world that can read, he has everybody eyes on the number 666 right through the world and everybody is checking out 666 while he is giving them the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast is a spiritual mark and if you notice it’s a mystery. The mark of the beast is a mystery. If it was not a mystery you would not need prophetic wisdom and understanding to unfold the mark of the beast. No, it would say here, let him that went to school read the mark of the beast. It is not something intellectual, it is something spiritual. The mark is a mystery, the mark needs wisdom to unfold, the mark is deceptive, it takes spiritual insight to read it. If it was 666 no wisdom was needed to read it, all that you need is schooling.

So, 666, why then the Bible told us that his number is 666? It told us it is 666 and that had to do with the man or servant of God that was to identify the antichrist; that was for him. That 666 pertains to the man that was going to unfold the mystery, and when he comes with that wisdom he was to read and unfold that mystery, and for himself, identify the beast. Then when he gets that understanding, through his preaching, he would be able to point out the beast to you and I and warn us about what is coming upon the face of the earth.

 

 

3rd angel’s message – 666

 

There is only one ministry that was ordained of God to identify the beast in the end time, and the image in the end time and the mark of the beast in the end time. I am talking about end time. There were those throughout the ages like Irenaeus and different spiritual men that tried to count the number of the beast, and they did the best that they could and some of them were right, but then when the mystery was to be revealed in the end time by the ministry of Revelation 10:7, “But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets”. It was about time that all the mysteries that were left scattered throughout the seven church ages, whether it was proven, and guessed at in anyway, or whether they came near to it, or they did come right, it was time for Revelation 10:7 to heap up all those mysteries in the end time and tie it down in the Word of God and preach them to the people of God in the end time, that they might be able to withstand the mark of the beast.

So that ministry was only given to the third angel of Revelation chapter fourteen, and that angel was not a flying angel, but angel means, ‘a messenger.’ The third angel and the seventh angel are one and the self same messenger because this also was a mystery, like the beast was a mystery and the image was a mystery, so too, the mark of the beast is a mystery. Therefore the only way that I could speak, or anyone of our ministers here tonight could speak on these mysteries is by the grace of Almighty God, because we have come in contact with such mysteries. And the reason that preachers around the world are talking foolishness is because they rejected that ministry of the third angel which equals the seventh angel. That is why they make the beast every other thing beside the truth. That is why they make the mark of the beast every thing beside the truth. But we are identified tonight with the ministry of the third angel.

And when I say that I am not talking about “three angels ministry.” There is some fanaticism that is going on in this country and they identify themselves and “three angels ministry” where three men speak on the radio or something and when I say third angel message we are not identified with “three angels ministry.” We are identified with the ministry that was sent of God from Heaven to warn the children of God about the beast and about his image, and about his mark.

 

 

Beast identified – Rome

 

First of all it is very simple; if we are going to identify the mark of the beast in the scriptural fashion tonight we must be able to identify first the beast. And there might be a stranger that was not here last night when the beast was thoroughly identified, and if you will spare me five minutes I want to identify the beast again. The beast of Revelation 13 that arose out of the sea, we identified that beast as Rome. The scriptures that we used to identify the beast of Revelation 13:1 also called the first beast, is Daniel the seventh chapter. Daniel saw four beasts rising up out of the water, which waters represents multitudes, nations, tongues and languages, Revelation, 17th chapter. And those four beasts were supposed to represent four kingdoms and then the angel of the Lord came and interpreted that vision to Daniel and he told him that the first beast represents Babylon, and the second beast represents Medo-Persia, and the third beast was Grecia and he said that the fourth beast was the fourth kingdom, therefore the fourth beast of Daniel 7 is the fourth kingdom, and every historian and any blind theologian knows enough that the fourth kingdom of the Gentiles is none other than Rome.

I think the blindest theologian can understand that because it was plainly spoken in another vision that Nebuchadnezzar had of an image. And Babylon was the head of gold, and breast was Medo-Persia, and the loins was Grecia, and then the legs and feet were the Roman Empire. And the Roman Empire was to exist until the second coming of Jesus Christ, when a stone will be cut out from the mountain and smite the image on its feet and then the fifth kingdom will be set up on earth, which the fifth kingdom is the kingdom of the Messiah which we belong to. It is called the kingdom of the Messiah.

 

 

10 horns identify beast

 

When our Lord came the first time, Rome was ruling because that was the fourth beast and that was in turn the feet of the great image. Rome continued to rule even after our Lord Jesus. In the thirteenth chapter of the Book of Revelation we find out that Rome was defeated in war, represented by the head, one of the heads was wounded to death but the deadly wound was healed. So now the deadly wound being healed, how that deadly wound was healed is by Pagan Rome becoming Papal Rome. It became Papal Rome and then by the World Council of Churches in 325AD, then they crowned the first Pope. And that is represented in the seventeenth chapter of the Book of Revelation. Notice very carefully if you were not here last night, the fourth beast of Daniel 7 had ten horns, the beast of Revelation 13 has ten horns and the beast of Revelation 17 has ten horns. So it is the same beast. In another place it tells you what kind of beast it is, and it is called the Red Dragon. So now it is one and the self same beast.

And then there was a great whore that was riding the beast, and we know what the whore is. Anything that is married to a man and goes around kissing another man is a whore. Anything that will live contrary to the marriage vows is a whore and a whoremonger. And there was a church one time that was married to our Lord Jesus Christ who went out with other doctrines and the Bible says that she went out committing fornication, and became a whore. So, that’s your whore of Revelation 17th chapter upon seven hills.

There is only one city in the whole world that is built upon seven hills. No other city in the whole world is build on seven hills. And that whore is sitting upon seven hills and she is sitting upon many waters, and she ruleth over the kings of the earth with her doctrines. So the conclusion of the Beast from last night is that the fourth beast of Daniel chapter seven is the same beast of Revelation the thirteenth chapter. And the beast of Revelation 13 is a religious beast therefore it appears in the seventeenth chapter of the Book of Revelation, and we had a religious body formed and the religions body was entwined with the Roman Empire. And from 325AD they ruled the world for one thousand years of dark ages. We cannot miss it, that’s the Beast! The Beast is just not a man, the Beast is an Empire! The Beast is a Nation! The Beast is a Kingdom! And yet it is a man. But the man that is the Beast in the end time, he will be the ruler of that Empire.

            The Bible interchangeably called the Empire, ‘the Beast’ and at other times it called the man ‘the Beast’.

Revelation 19:19 <...and the Beast and his army.>. In the 20th verse it says, <...and the Beast was taken, and with him the false prophet.> But this Beast is identified here as the Roman power. And the Beast is the Red Dragon. Oh glory to God.

 

 

The red dragon – Rome

 

            Somebody may not be sure that the Beast is the Roman Empire, but I quote the twelfth chapter of the Book of Revelation, and the Bible says, And I saw another great wonder in Heaven, a woman in travail to bring forth a child, and she had a crown of twelve stars, and the moon was under her feet and she was clothed with the sun. And I saw another great wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, waiting to devour the child that was born. Oh Glory, it makes me feel religious.

            The birth of that child was our Lord Jesus Christ! And the Roman Empire through Herod was waiting to kill the child! But the child was caught up to God and unto His throne! And he shall rule and reign with a rod of iron! It is infallibly proven that the red dragon of Revelation 12 is none other than the Roman Empire. The decree went out from Herod, sanctioned by Caesar in the Roman kingdom, to destroy all children two years and under. So it is the Roman Empire. That’s the Bible.

           

 

Mark of the beast

 

We challenge any man, any theologian, any Bible school, and Bible trained minister to refute what we are saying. The Beast is not a computer; the mark is not a tattoo. No my beloved. The Beast is a kingdom. The Beast is a certain nation, a certain kingdom that became religious and it ruled the whole world by religion. It is built upon seven hills and they have a leader. I want to read something to you. This came from the Catholic dictionary, Volume 6, page 438 – 442:

 

Quote: “The Pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God and the vicar of God. The Pope is of such lofty and supreme dignity that properly speaking he has not been established in any rank of dignity but rather had been placed upon the very summit of all ranks of dignity. He is like the divine monarch, the supreme emperor and king of kings. Hence the Pope is crowned with the triple crown as king of Heaven and of earth and of the lower regions. What are the letters supposed to be on the Pope’s crown and what do they signify if any, the letters inscribes in the Pope’s miter are these VICARIUS FILLI DEI which is the Latin for Vicar of the Son of God. Catholics holds that the Church which is a visible society must have a visible head. Christ before His ascension into Heaven appointed St. Peter to act as His representative, hence to the Bishop of Rome, as head of the Church, was given the title Vicar of Christ.” Our Sunday Visitor Catholic Weekly, April 18th. Bureau of Information, Hunnington, Indiana, April 18, 1915 that was established.”

 

            Now, this fellow that is ruling in Rome is a great fellow and his dignity is so great that there is no earthly dignity that could be applied to him because he is so great, so the best thing to call him is king of kings. Well you heard the story there. Now, brothers and sisters, I am here to tell you tonight that the mark of the Beast, as much as we are preaching it here for the past months and the past years, the mark of the Beast has been upon the earth as long as Christianity. The mark of the beast is as old as Christianity. The mark of the Beast is since the first coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, it is old as Christianity itself and I do not have the time to go back but the mark of the Beast is older than Christianity. The mark of the Beast goes back to the Garden of Eden when God marked a beast-man! The mark of the Beast. I am saying ‘the mark’ of the Beast. All right, if we want, I cannot deal with Cain tonight.

 

MARK OF THE BEAST BEGAN IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN – GOD PUT A MARK ON CAIN

 

Quote W.M.B.:  198 The first time... "Where'd you say the mark of the beast begin?" In the garden of Eden. Mark of the beast and the Seal of God was performed in the garden of Eden. Exactly.

...Notice. Cain was the son of Satan. He was the son of the beast which beguiled Eve. You can call it whatever you want to. He was the son of Satan. And what did he do? God put a mark on him and sent him out from the Presence of God. (True Easter Seal 61-0402).

 

Hold on a minute, if you want to find out what is the mark of the Beast, first you have to find out, what is the Beast. Who is he? Where is he? Then if you cannot identify who is the Beast, then you will not be able to identify what the mark is, because it is ‘the mark’ of the Beast.

            Now, that we have already identified the Beast through the ministry of Revelation 10:7 that Christ sent here upon the earth and by the opening of the Seals, the very Seals that were opened up were to reveal the antichrist. And that is why the religious world is in such blindness and bondage even because that seven seals have that revelation of the antichrist shut up. And when the seals were opened, the first thing that rode out was the antichrist on a white horse and then a red horse, and then a third, a black horse, and then a pale horse. I am saying that the first horse was the Beast in antichrist form; the second horse was the Beast in antichrist form, false prophet, and then the third Beast was the false prophet, it was still the Beast, and then the fourth horse rider will be the beast proper in the end time here.

            Therefore if we can identify the Beast, and we have already identified the Beast, then we must be able to know the mark. There is something about Rome. I am saying that beyond a shadow of a doubt that Rome is the Beast. That’s the Beast’s Empire. It is one of the oldest existing cities in the world, and it is the city that reigns over the kings of the earth and it is called the eternal city, and God called it Mystery Babylon, the mother of harlots and abomination of the earth. And it is true, we got to give them the credit, she is the mother church. And we are talking about the mother church, but the mother church is a whore. It’s the mother church, they claim to be the mother church but the mother church is a whore! Because she lived contrary to the Word of God! She lived contrary to Jesus Christ, mother whore! Then we have no problem in knowing what the Beast is and what the mark is.

            Now, we understand what the Beast is. If we understand what the Beast is, then the mark is supposed to be with the Beast because it is the mark of the Beast. How will you miss it? If you want to find out what is the mark, find out who is the Beast. And I pointed out to you who is the Beast and where he is located therefore you could find out the mark. And right over the Pope’s throne is written, I hope you were reading that on the board. If you did not, you got to know these things. Right over the Pope’s throne and this leaflet here said also on his crown is recorded VICARIUS FILLI DEI, in English it means, Instead of the Son of God, or Vicar of the Son of God. It means that he took over from Christ, and Christ right now is reigning in the millennium, according to one doctrine, yes, but the only thing is, about two millenniums passed. So time is going to get this thing. And beyond a shadow of a doubt VICARIUS FILLI DEI, you can look at it right here on the board, checking that in Roman Numerals, it is equivalent to 666.

Brothers and sisters, I am here to tell you that since that time that the mark of the beast appeared as early as in Genesis and the mark of the beast appeared right up here in the first coming of our Lord and Jesus Christ.  It is old as Christianity. I will prove that to you in a little while.

           

 

Billions already took the mark of the beast – 666

 

Now from the time of the first coming of the Lord, I want to let you know that billions of people have already taken the Mark of the Beast. So this is not a new doctrine. This is not a strange doctrine, friend. Billions of people have already taken the Mark of the Beast, because the beast was in existence with the mark, therefore billions of people took the Mark of the Beast already, and billions of people have gone to hell, and whenever you take the Mark of the Beast, you will be tormented with fire and brimstone and the smoke will ascend. Your soul will enter into hell. The Beast is not a fellow to play with. The Mark of the Beast is not something to play with. Billions of people already took the Mark of the Beast, since the first coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Souls are tormented right now by the millions in hell and brothers and sisters, they await the lake of fire.

            All those that take the mark of the beast are beyond redemption. It is a serious affair. I am saying this to show you what the Mark of the Beast is. Anything that worships the Beast, anything that worships the Image, anything that takes the Mark of the Beast is beyond redemption. It is unpardonable. Are we wasting time here tonight? No, if I could but warn one soul here tonight that don’t know these things, it would worth it all.  If I could warn one  teenager that is thinking to  be a hypocrite and go out there and live in sin. It would worth it all tonight. If I could warn one little brother from the organization, one little sister from the organization, who does not understand these things, it would worth it all. I would save that soul from torment, day and night.

 

 

Fleeing the mark of the beast – 666

 

            Revelation 14: 9-11 says, “Whosoever worship the beast, worship his Image and take his Mark, shall be tormented day and night with fire and brimstone.” Yes, my brothers and sisters. Thank God. Thank God your eyes are open. Thank God that you believe these things and if you are a visitor here tonight and you are wondering what this gathering is about. My beloved brother, my beloved sister that came from organization, our purpose tonight is that we are fleeing the Mark of the Beast.

            We were Pentecostals, we were Baptists, we were Methodists, we were Catholics by organization and by denomination. We used to be, but then when this light and understanding came to us, then what happened is that our eyes became open to understand what the Beast is, and what his Image is, and what his Mark is, and what is happening upon the face of the earth, our pastor could not hold us back, the superintendent was not able. The whole church was not able, but we are fleeing the Mark of the Beast. We are fleeing the Mark of the Beast. Oh yes, Oh, brothers and sisters, all these souls. Think of how many people came under the Beast worship. Beast worship is not a new thing that is going to start here, brother. Beast worship started way back in Rome. The Beast was worshipped for one thousand (1000) years of Dark Ages. When the beast was worshipped, they took away the Bibles. They killed every Christian that would not bow down and worship the beast.

            The beast was ruling the world empire, by a man with a triple crown and on his crown was inscribed – Vicarius Filli Dei – checking that out in Roman Numerals is 666. This is not a story that I am making up friend, this is not an organization that I am trying to build. This  is not proselyting and trying to take away somebody church member, I am here to edify you, to tell you what is going on in this world and I am here to tell you that the whole world right now is heading to take the Mark of the Beast,  one more time. That is why we came out of our organizations. That is why we follow Christ. That is why we follow the Bible because our organizations are heading back to the mark of the beast and we did not know that, but we came to find out that and we are fleeing the mark of the beast. Oh yes children, O glory to God!

           

 

How billions took the mark of the beast

 

“You said billions, preacher, took  the mark? How did these people end up worshipping the beast and taking his mark and end up in hell?” There is only one way that you could end up worshipping the Beast and taking his Mark which is unpardonable, which there is no forgiveness for. I am going to tell you the truth. The only way that could happen to you is that first, you reject the Word and then you reject God’s Messengers and then you reject the Holy Ghost in order to side with the Beast and with Rome.

 

MARK OF APOSTASY – REJECT LIGHT

 

Quote W.M.B.: 87 And remember, that we found without one mistake, that the mark of the beast is a mark of apostasy, that is, church members hanging to their church instead of walking in the Light. They reject Light, and there's nothing left by darkness (That's right.), both Catholic and Protestant. (Seal Of God 54-0514).

 

TO REJECT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST

 

Quote: 388-126 The mark of the beast is on today, and the Seal of God is the Holy Spirit. To reject It is the mark of the beast. Ever who sees the Holy Ghost, that you're supposed to receive It, and don't do it, automatically you take the mark of the beast... So to receive the Seal of God is to receive the Holy Ghost. To reject It is to have the mark of the beast... That's exactly right. (Questions & Answers 59-0628E).

 

            This whole world is going to get a chance and many of them already got a chance to hear the warning, to hear the Word, to hear the messengers of God, telling them to flee from the Mark of the Beast and many of them already rejected that. Now, just as these people rejected the Word and rejected His Messengers and rejected the Holy Spirit... whilst that beast was in existence over there sitting upon the Throne there were messengers.

            There was a messenger called Paul. There was another messenger called Irenaeus, another one was Columba and these men were preaching and they were preaching against the Beast. They were preaching against the mark of the Beast. They were saying if you belong to that system you are going to die. You are going to die, brethren. Come out of the Beast system, brethren. Come out of the beast system, and the word that those Messengers were preaching was rejected. The Holy Ghost that they were giving out was rejected. The counsel they were giving them was rejected and as long as they made up their minds to reject the Word of God and get into the whore system, they received the mark of the beast.

            Immediately when they rejected the Word of God and took the whore system, they received the Mark of the Beast. In a while, I am going to tell you, what is the Mark of the Beast, if you did not catch it yet. What I said there is able to let you understand what the Mark of the Beast is.  I would give you a little hint. I am saying anybody that takes the Mark of the Beast, it is unpardonable. How many say Amen? [Congregation says, “Amen!”]       

There is no forgiveness for that; listen to me, Jesus said there is only one sin that cannot be forgiven man. Now put two and two together. There is only one sin that cannot be forgiven. Alright I will comeback to that. Now the only reason they could have gone to the whore system, is that they failed to listen to the Messenger for their hour. They failed to listen to the Word, they failed to listen to what God said and then they turned from the Message and joined the whore system. Millions of them were dumped into hell. Count and see how many billions of people from that time up to today, are still worshipping the Beast, and getting ready to worship the Image now. Yes, see how many people?

 

Mark of the beast – mark of the soul

 

What is the Mark of the Beast?  “What is the mark of the Beast, preacher?” To join the whore system, is to turn down the Word of God, turn down the Messenger, reject the spirit that is flowing. That’s your mark of the beast. And let me put a little one to shake up somebody here tonight.  You could receive the Mark of the Beast right here tonight and not yet belong to Rome.

You say, “Preacher, right here?” Yes, right here. You hear good solid truth and turn your back on it.  You sit in the presence of God and walk away. You turn your back on His messengers. You receive the Holy Spirit that anointS you and you turn your back and walk away, later you are cursed to belong to the World Council of Churches. Later it would be manifested where you belong to the whore system.

 

MARK OF THE BEAST IS ALREADY COME – IN FUTURE MADE MANIFEST

 

Quote W.M.B.: 62    Now, somebody said, "Now, there's going to be a mark of the beast; it's going to come someday." Let me tell you; it's already come. See? As soon as the Holy Ghost begin to fall, the mark of the beast begin to take place.

See, you only have two things: One of them is, accept It, takes the Seal of God; to reject It, takes the mark of the beast. To reject the Seal of God is to take the mark of the beast. Everybody understand? To reject the Seal of God is to take the mark of the beast, for the Bible said all that was not sealed by the Seal of God took the mark of the beast.

When the trumpet sounded and all wanted to go free could go, them that didn't was marked. Now, you see, the mark of the beast, if we talk about it in the future, is when it's going to be made manifest, when you realize it's what you've already done. See? (Is Your Life Worthy 63-0630E).

 

Quote: 32-5 Those who reject the Holy Spirit, is already marked by the beast. The punishment will come later. See. (The Token 63-0901M).

 

Backsliding from the Word is a terrible thing. To leave the Word of God, to commit fornication and adultery is a horrible thing. It may look like nothing is happening to you, but later on you will join the whore system. I know spiritual people are already catching on to what the mark is. You say, “Preacher, the mark is not on your hand. It is not on your forehead, you will have to tell us what it is.” I will tell just now. I will give you a little hint again.  It is not a mark of the body, it is a mark of the soul. When your soul get marked; it is marked for hell and the lake of fire. “Whosoever worship the Beast and his Image and take the Mark is tormented with fire and brimstone day and night.”

            So whenever you receive the mark, your soul is marked for hell and the Lake of Fire.  Alright, coming back to the Mark is not a new thing. This Beast is not a new thing, his Image is a new thing. That is why the angel had to come back and give a warning of the Beast and the Image and the Mark. The Beast is an old thing. The Mark is an old thing, but the Image is a new thing. You and I are living in a day when we must face the Image of the Beast. You are not only going to face the Image of the Beast. You are going to face the Image and you are going to face the Mark. But my brother, the Lord sent something today. He sent a Message, he sent a Revelation. He opened the Seals in order to equip you and I, we are without excuse.

           

 

 

Mark of the beast is to join w.c.c.

 

To take the Mark of the Beast is to join the whore system and come and sit under this fellow with a triple crown. That was the Mark of the Beast. First, before you do that, you had to reject the Word before you go and sit under something like that.

            So now, people were coming in. They had their own free will, if they wanted to follow another little religion that preaches Christ. A lot of people who were wishy-washy were joining the harlot system and they were taking the Mark of the Beast very slowly. Then Satan decided that these souls who are coming in are not enough in abundance. “I want to bring in these souls and mark them properly before God get them.” Yes, do you know what he did in order to mark many more souls? He inspired Constantine to call a World Council of Churches in his day and all religions were summoned.  I am talking about a W.C.C - A World Council of Churches.  Constantine said he wanted to get baptized and they would become Christians because there was too much fighting with doctrine amongst the people.  “Let us all come into a Council which is called the Nicene Council and that was called in 325 A.D. Calling that in 325 AD, they were all brought together to thrash out their differences.  You heard what I am saying children.  When they finished thrashing out their differences a law was passed by the government and the law was that you are going to be a catholic or die.

            “The Roman Church is the right church, it is the universal church.”  Catholic means universal, therefore anybody who comes against this great church, is going to die. During that time, there was a bunch of people who believed in baptism in Jesus Christ Name - Acts 2:38. They did forbid a woman from preaching – 1Timothy 2:12. They believed in one God - St. John 4:24. The believed the women should not wear pants - Deut 22:5 and they believed that the woman should not cut off her hair – 1 Corinthians 11:15 and they did not believe in belonging to any organization, but they believed in belonging to Christ. There was a bunch of people that went up to that Council, and they knew that was the Beast coming into his reign. They did not know who the Beast was, but they knew that it was about time that the beast should come into his reign. Two groups went up to Rome and then they elected a head bishop and the head bishop was given a crown and the crown had that inscription.  Those people that were born again and had the Spirit of God and had a revelation of the message, they separated themselves and ran away to the mountains. They went underground and the great bulk of people by the millions agreed that they would bow down to Rome. “If you do not bow down, we would take away your houses, we would take away your lands, together with that you will be brought before a court and we would crucify you.”

 

 

Persecution bill – U.S.A. Clinton

 

            So there was a bunch of people that went out and said that we are not going to bow down to Rome. It is the Mark of the Beast. “We don’t want to go to hell. We don’t want to be burned in a Lake of Fire, we want eternal life.” I am telling you the same thing is coming back here on the earth. This picture is as clear as daylight, that same thing is about ready to repeat through the World Council of Churches and through a one world government. The law is already passed in America by Bill Clinton that all churches must join together and any body that resist that one world church is going to be persecuted and sent to prison. We are not going to join it. [Congregation says, “Amen!”]

            O, beloved, be understanding, I am saying what was the Beast back there is an old thing. I am showing you what was the Mark back there. Is that right? I show you now how the mark came in, in a form of unity. Constantine was a lovely man, he got baptized. He painted a cross on his shield. And the whole world admires this fellow called Constantine, because he passed a law not to persecute the Christians again, but you know who were the Christians that were not persecuted. It was a persecution bill that was passed. Don’t you see what I am saying children? It was a new persecution bill that was passed for the real Christians. That liberty from               persecution was only for those that bowed down to the whore. But those who resisted the whore, the persecution started on a greater scale. They killed sixty-eight million martyrs and they put it down on the Roman Martyrology. Who were those Christians that they killed, men that baptized in Jesus Name.  Men that did not belong to organization, men that forbade a woman from preaching the gospel, men that believed in one God.  Trinitarianism is of the Devil and it was invented by the Beast, and it would take you to the Mark of the Beast. That’s the Mark of the Beast. That is how it came in children. Can you see what is happening today? Do you see what is happening today? How did the Mark of the Beast come in that time? You had the beast sitting there with a triple crown. He still has it today. It is in a glass case. The brethren had different doctrinal divisions, they had their own churches fussing and fighting and Constantine the big man, he called everybody together and he said, “Stop this fussing and fighting, thrash out your doctrines right in my hearing.”

            He said, “You know what happen? It’s too much Bible reading. Outlaw the Bible. The holy man is going to keep all the Bibles. Yes, and stop the fussing, he is going to hold the Bibles. Keep the Bibles there and anybody found reading the scriptures, and saying what the Bible mean would be martyred.”

That was the law. It was, “be a catholic or die.” 68 million people, brothers and sisters, during the course of that time, perished for reading their Bibles, preaching the gospel, for saying that you don’t have to bow down to any priest, for saying that a woman should not preach the gospel, for saying you should be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. If you are not yet baptized in Jesus Christ name, you are not yet baptized in Christian baptism. If you are baptized in titles of Father, son and Holy Ghost, you are baptized into the Roman church. They are the ones that brought that baptism of titles of Father, son and Holy Ghost. O, there we are, children; do you see what I am saying?

 

 

Wholesale slaughter of souls – W.C.C. – billions 

 

All right, here you are, now souls were not being marked enough, the devil wanted a wholesale slaughter, so in order to have a wholesale slaughter of souls and damn them, he called the world council of churches and in calling the world council of churches, he, by a law, forced them to bow down to the whore. And do you know why people bowed down? To save their homes, to save their children, for their comfort and for their security. Think of what I am saying children, that’s the mark of the beast.

So now, brothers and sisters, it was not any big thing. Hear how that came in. The doctrine being preached was, you just got to leave your church and come over and join the big church. I don’t see what is the big difference, in you coming together with your churches, come together let us worship God, and it is the same God that we are worshiping.

It is not the same God, my Bible is calling it the worship of the beast, and the worship of the image and the mark of the beast.

My brothers and sisters, there we are. To join that church, that world church, to join that whore in that time, you had to turn down the servant of God, you had to turn down the Spirit of God and you had to accept the whore and you had to accept Trinitarianism, you had to accept the beast man. Yes and whenever you accepted that beast man, whenever you accepted the Trinitarianism, whenever you accepted the whore in that time for comfort and security, you were beyond redemption.

 

 

Mark of the beast – what?

 

What is the mark today, how can a tattoo harm me? It’s harmless and I tell you plainly what is the mark of the beast today? The mark of the beast today is to obey the United States of America, which is the second beast which came up from the earth, and to join the world council of churches and finally join Rome. That’s the mark of the beast. That’s the mark of the beast.

You say, “I want to find out what is the mark itself.” Just now, it takes a little time. Yes, I am saying, my friend, the mark of the beast today is to obey United States, that beast that came up out of the earth, which is a kingdom. Also to join Rome by organizations and the world council of churches, through a one world government and a one world church, they have already passed the law,  and that law is about ready to go into effect.

Brothers, I feel to say something here. People that fight this message, speak evil of this message, speak evil of you and I, behave like if they have never sat under this revelation, they are headed for the mark of the beast. They have already taken the mark of the beast when they do that and they don’t know it. It would be manifested when they join the world council of churches and bring the police, and bring the guards to show them where we are hiding, but I have news for them; they would bounce in to a hot wire, the power of God will fall by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. And the Lord said that He would keep thee in that hour of temptation.

To escape the mark of the beast you got to love God, you got to love Life, you got to love Life more than your organization, you got to love Life more than a woman, more than adultery, more than fornication, more than a church membership, you got to love Life, because life is life eternal.

Getting ready to go, friends, oh glory, I don’t have time to justify that scripture tonight, but  the second beast of Revelation 13 is United States, and if you read that carefully, they made the suggestion, to let us make an image to the beast. In order words, let us go back to the beast. He has the gold to run the world, when it becomes bankrupt. Is that right?

 

 

666 not a literal mark

 

The mark is a spiritual mark. It is a spiritual mark, it is not 666, a literal mark. That mark is coming through the world council of churches. Did the mark come through a world council of churches? Let me hear your voices. Did it come through a one world government? Did it come through a world council of churches? Did it come slick?  Did it look like peace? Did it look like something to save Christians from persecution?

Do you know how this bill is called, that Clinton passed? “Freedom from religious persecution.” Hear it, “Freedom from religious persecution”, and Constantine passed a law, freedom from religious persecution. That is a mouth full, friend, freedom from religious prosecution. That is what Constantine passed, that is what bill Clinton passed, that’s another Constantine.

Yes sir, but it was not freedom for the true church, it was not freedom for born again Christians, it was not freedom for them that loved the Lord and it is not freedom for the Pentecostals that love the Lord and the Baptists that love the Lord, yes, and the people of the religions that love the Lord and the people of this message that love the lord, it is persecution for them. Freedom from religious persecution, that is what Constantine declared. That is history, everybody knows that.

Yes, and brothers and sisters, let us see what the mark is. I am saying it is a spiritual mark and I am saying it is not a literal number 666. I am saying that billions of people received the mark, under the reign of the beast called the antichrist and the false prophet. Is that right?

History never recorded where any one of them had a tattoo, and history never recorded where any of them ever had 666 on their foreheads nor on their hands. If the mark that existed since our Lord Jesus Christ came to earth was a visible mark, 666, then history would have recorded that, saying that they tattooed the people. What they did was that they cut off their necks.

            History never recorded about one person, that received a tattoo from the beast neither did it record anywhere that anybody had 666 marked on their forehead and on their hand, then I am telling you here and will prove to you by the Word of God, for a few minutes before closing, that the mark is a spiritual mark and the mark is not on the body, the mark is on the soul, because it is a spiritual mark. It is a spiritual mark, and that spiritual mark is coming back here in the end time and we are going to have another wholesale slaughter, because souls are not coming into the devil’s kingdom fast enough. So the devil wants to do a quick work, because he knows that his time is short, so he is going to bring all religions together, all organizations together, and the law was already passed, it is being enforced right now by the united nations, throughout the world that you got to come into the unity.

 

Word rejected, theN bow to W.C.C.

 

Is it not strange that about this time my friend, that God sent forth the third angel, to warn you about the beast and warn you about the mark?

The only way that you could go and bow down to the whore and bow down to the harlots, and bow down to the organizations, bow down to the world council of churches, is first to reject the Word and the message that came by the third angel, you got to turn it down.

Oh yes, and I have news for you, friend, that man of God that was anointed for the job to warn people against the beast today and his image and his mark, he came into the world and he went to the religious world and warned them for thirty years. And do you know what religious people did? They rejected the messenger, they rejected the word and they rejected the demonstration of the spirit. Is that right, and when they did that God cursed America.

O brothers and sisters, you say, “God cursed America?” America is a cursed nation, doom for destruction and she is only receiving amateur judgment right now. That is the smoke and the fire is behind.

The religious world turned down the message that warned them against the beast and the image and the mark. And when they turned down the message and the Word and the spiritual demonstration, the religious world was cursed to go and take the mark of the beast. And what you see going on around the world here is just the manifestation of the curse that Elijah the prophet put upon America and the religious world. They are now manifesting that by coming together to take the mark of the beast through the world council of churches.

Alright, closing. “If that was not a literal mark down there and billions of people went down to hell for receiving the mark of the beast and worshiping the image, then what is the mark preacher?” I am saying it is a mark of the soul.

 

 

Mark of the beast is unpardonable sin – holy ghost blasphemy,

mark of the soul

 

            What is the mark? When you sit down and hear good solid truth and you sit in the presences of God and you get up and walk away and you love your organization and love the world council of churches more than eternal life, your soul is damned. “Preacher, what did you say there? The mark is damnation of the soul?” You better believe it, friend.

            There is only one sin that cannot be forgiven men, how many say what is the sin?  The blasphemy against the Holy Ghost and the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, is when the Holy Ghost brings the Word to you through the messenger of God. Is that right? And you get up and walk away, you blaspheme the Holy Ghost - Hebrews 6: 4-6, 10:26, Matthew 12: 31-32.

How many people blasphemed their way that sat in Bethel, under the Word and walked away from it. They are going to get the mark of the beast. The manifestation follows later. It is a mark of your soul. When you reject the Word of God your soul is marked, it’s stamped for hell, you could cry-out how much you want, beg God how much you want, how much token could come, how much revival could come, you sat and heard water baptism in Jesus Christ name, one God preached to you, you sat in the presence of God, and got up and walked away and committed adultery, went away, went back and belong to an organization, God put an "x" on your soul.

How many know the mark of the beast is unpardonable? There are not two unpardonable sins. How many know that there is only one? All right, the only way that you could go and belong to a system like that is that you first have to reject the Word of God. So you get marked in your soul. A lot of men that walked away from that Word, a lot of people went out to commit adultery, a lot of people went out there and persecuted the House of God, they are marked in their souls. You say, “Why is it that the Lord don’t condemn them?” When God marks somebody He protects them. “And God set a mark upon Cain, lest any man finding him should slay him.” God said, in other words, “that is what you chose your soul is damned. Go and enjoy your forty years, go and enjoy your hundred years, for at the end of it you are going to hell.”

 

MARK OF THE BEAST - UNBELIEF

 

Quote W.M.B.: 19-4 What is the mark of the beast? Unbelief. (Oneness Of Unity 58-0128).

 

MARK OF THE BEAST – BLASPHEME THE HOLY GHOST – NEVER TO BE FORGIVEN

 

            Quote: 172... And then you walk around and blaspheme the Holy Ghost... and it's never to be forgiven.

You're going to find out in a few minutes what the mark of the Devil is, what the seal of the Devil is, the mark of the beast. "Whosoever speaks against the Holy Ghost, will never be forgiven him in this world or the world to come." ... You could seal yourself out of the Kingdom of God and into the Devil; out into where there's no forgiveness in this world nor the one to come. (Mark Of The Beast 61-0217).

 

Quote: E-51 ... And if they blaspheme the Holy Ghost, they take the mark of the beast, and there's nothing but destruction left. (Seal Of God 61-0216).

 

YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON GOD - TAKE THE MARK OF THE BEAST - CAIN

 

Quote: E-69 "He that sins..." What is sin? Unbelief... "He that believeth not is condemned already... That's exactly right. See, there it is, unbelief. What is it? "If we disbelieve willfully," that's you out here tonight Presbyterian, Methodist, or you without the Holy Ghost. "If we disbelieve willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin."

You turn your back on God; what do you do then? Seal yourself away, and take the mark of the beast, and go off like Cain did, from the Presence of God. That's shaking, isn't it...

 "He that sins willfully (disbelieves willfully)... after he has received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin. But a fearful looking for the fiery judgment and 'I will repay,' saith the Lord." It's a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

After it's brought right up to you and showed you that is the seal of God, and just because of prestige, you'd have to give up something, or quit your denomination, or something to receive it, and then walk away from it, you know what you do? You seal yourself out of the Kingdom: mark of the beast.

When God told ... Cain, said, "...Bring a lamb, come down here and worship like your brother,"... But he wouldn't do it, said, "This is the best I can offer. You can take it or leave it." And he was marked and went out of the Presence of God. (Mark Of The Beast 61-0217).

 

            I say repent or perish. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God. It is a terrible thing to walk away from the Word of God, a terrible thing, my friends, to walk away from good solid truth, yes sir, and Cain went out from the presence of the Lord. It’s a horrible thing. If you have deceit in that heart, you better purge that thing out, if you have adultery in that heart get it out, if you have fornication in that heart get it out, if you have unbelief in that heart get it out, before God put an "x" upon your soul right tonight. You could be right here in the presence of God and walk out of the presence of God with an "x" upon your heart.

Let the musicians come forward. 

It is a fearful thing, my children. With our heads bowed and our eyes closed, worshiping the Lord in the beauty of holiness. O, the chances that we take on the Word now, people don’t know what they are doing but later when that mark comes down, later, when that council comes together and that one world government, they would not have the strength. They would not have the strength to stand up for righteousness, they would not have the strength to stand up against that beast, they would love their comfort. If you love adultery now, you would want that comfort later. It’s very simple. If you love your life now, you’re going to lose it then. Jesus said, “He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it, and he that save his life shall lose it.” O yes, children, let us pray.
