A day is coming when the Mark of the Beast will be fully implemented, and it looks like Ukraine is set to take the first dive. Telecom giant Etisalat, showcased a “new” technology, injectable microchips.
(7DAYS) — It might sound like something from a dystopian science fiction fantasy but you could soon be able to pay for goods and services with a microchip that is embedded in your hand, according to Etisalat officials.
The UAE telecoms giant unveiled new injectable microchips, which store all your credit card, ID and business card data inside, for the first time in the Middle East at GITEX 2016 in Dubai.
The technique is called bio-hacking, where an alien device is embedded on the back of the hand between the thumb and forefinger using a special syringe, medical tattoo artist Hazim Naori told 7DAYS.
“We clean the skin with sanitiser and after this we put the marks exactly where we want to pierce it,” he said.
“We insert the needle under the skin with a part of the need that pushes it in, and that’s where it settles and it needs a week or two to heal.”
Naori performed the implant for the first time on October 7 on George Held, from Etisalat’s Innovation team.
Speaking about the implantation, he said: “It’s like a piercing, it doesn’t hurt, but it feels a bit uncomfortable for the first day. The bio-hacking improves and enhances your body and will be not just a wearable device, but a device within yourself. You cannot replace or lose it, if you have an accident it’s still with you.” — (Read More)
Will Ukraine be the first to fall? Other nations such as Australia have planned to implement microchips as well, but have thus far failed. Other tech giants such as Google, Microsoft, and Apple are applying the “next phase” of banking, which is the stage just before the Mark of the Beast. However, Etisalat is the first to offer – the microchip entirely.
“Chi-Xi-Stigma – Six Hundred Threescore and Six – 666 Based on the king James version of the bible…
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. Revelation 13:18
Early Biblical translators chose to spell out the number 666 – Six hundred threescore and six. This is one of the rare exceptions in the English Bible where a number is spelled out instead of using a numeric representation. This treatment of 666 brings focus to the individual characters which allow us to gain a further understanding of the Mark of the Beast.
If we look at the Greek we see that 666 is presented with three letters: Chi – Xi – Stigma. The numeric values of these three Greek letters add up to 666.
Stigma is based on the ancient Greek digamma and must not be confused with the modern Greek sigma. It carried the meaning of “‘a mark, dot, puncture’ or generally ‘a sign’, from the verb στίζω (‘to puncture’)” as well as “[a] mark from a pointed instrument, often as a sign of ownership: mark, brand, tattoo.”
Strong’s Concordance gives stigma the following definition: “”to ‘stick’ … a mark incised or punched (for recognition of ownership) … mark.””
The definitions of stigma and charagma are remarkably similar. They both support the idea of a pointed instrument used to inject a microchip like the Verichip.
Stigma has also made it into the English language where it’s defined as “a mark of infamy or disgrace”. There’s an obvious carryover from it’s use in Revelation.
Another intriguing definition of stigma in it’s English usage is “token.” Anyone familiar with digital security will recognize a token as a physical device that’s used to gain various levels of access [11]. That’s exactly what the Verichip is, a security token.
The definition of “token” for stigma provides a hint that the mark will be readily adopted due its close relationship to money, identification, and commerce. And where any of these are found security is close by. Security will play a significant role in selling the Mark of the Beast (1 Thessalonians 5:3).
Revelation Chapter 13
“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.”
Revelation Chapter 14
“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive [his] mark in his forehead, or in his hand..
“The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb”..
“And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.”
If you have not received Jesus Christ as your Eternal Lord and Savior, now would be the time to seek Him while He may be found, and call upon Him while He is near.
It’s getting very late!
Crazy times we are in. I will never take the mark of the beast!!
