The Mark of the Beast

Here is something interesting about the mark of the beast...

 In scripture, we read that those children of YHWH, wore a tefillin, or some called them phylacteries. Simply put, these were reminders worn, between their eyes (forehead), and upon their hands, reminding them of the Laws of YHWH....

 So, my question then would be... is the "mark" of the beast, those who refuse, or deny the Laws of YHWH?
*[[Rev 22:14]] KJV* Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

 So many, I fear, have been lulled into a belief that the "anti-Christ" will come sometime in the future, and will be here for 7 years... While this may be true, about the anti-Christ "man", but that spirit of anti-Christ has been here since John wrote his letters.

 How many, have received that "mark" throughout the ages, those who refuse or deny His Law,.

 The Bible is written to or about those who served YHWH. All of the Apostles letters were written to the churches, often warning of false Christ's rising within the fellowship.

 Today, we have a huge following of the "cheap grace" type of teaching. For many ages, idol worship and other pagan practices have flooded the pews. Along side of these have been the multiple other groups, some who think Christ was actually born, and grew up in heaven with Satan, while others deny Christ's godship altogether. Each of these have chosen the name of Christian or some form of following the generic name god. This group has many heads, all seeking those who will bow before their doctrine.

 And the primary thing these each have, is a lack of accepting the Laws. Some will teach bits and parts of those laws and rules, but none of them will accept ALL of HIS rules. Instead, they twist scripture, so as to explain away HIS rules. All of these reject those first 4 Commandments (together, entirely). But those 6 which instruct how to be a better "man", they will teach.

 With those 6 Commandments, they can appear as a godly man. With those 6 they can teach a man to appear godly. But without those 6, they could not buy nor sell their religions.

 They refuse though, to follow those first 4.

 Since the Apostles, HE has been calling His people out of Babylon, that teaching of not only paganism, but that system of religion, which intermixes and combines one god after another, muddling the minds of those who drink her wine.

 Those who have escaped, have attained victory over the beasts name, number and mark.

 Rev 15:1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God. Rev 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

 This blasphemous beast, who calls himself by god's name, with the many heads, teaching the 6 Commandments, but refusing those 4 which deal with the worship of the One true G-D, has received its power from the Devil himself, and goes about, in the name of God, devouring nations and peoples.

 This beast is like the leopard, in its ability to sneak in, and devour and consume those unsuspecting victims, who listen to its lies and half truths. Grinding under foot, with his massive foundation. All those who oppose him, he shreds in his teeth.

 This beast was around for awhile, but was replaced by another. This one even more subtle, coming in as the Christ, teaching those who listen, all about the love of G-d, speaking as a dragon, telling only parts of the truth. For in teaching only about the love of G-d, he leaves off the jealousy and anger of YHWH. This beast has all the power of the first, in its ability to kill those who oppose him. This beast is able to perform many wondrous miracles, all in the name of a loving god.

 This beast, which comes in as the lamb, creates a system of worship, resembling that first beast. And this image speaks against all those who seek to worship the One true G-D, those who obey His Laws, and destroys those who obey Christ.

 Killing and attacking all those who worship the One true G-d, and obey not only those 6 Commandments, which deal with "man"... but also obey those first 4 Commandments, which deals with how we are to worship YHWH. Those who have the seal of YHWH, are those who think on, daily, and obey His Laws.
