Numbers And Fingers 00:02:55
Tell us what you learned.
Well, the mark of the beast is alluded to in Revelation chapter 13, and it's a system of buying or selling, and you can't buy or sell without a mark, the name or the number of the beast.
So everything today, of course, is numbers.
You've got phone numbers, social security number, pin number, credit card number, debit card number, number, number, number.
All the computers are operated by ones and zeros, which are numbers.
Now, we went to this park and we were given at the hotel, most people will figure out where this was, a card.
Okay, it was our card, our personal card, and it had our information on it.
So, in other words, we had paid to get to the park for, let's say, three days, but this was our card.
We had to have it to get in.
So, I thought, what happens if you lose the card?
So, when we get to the park, they have a machine that you put, it's clear, you put your thumbs in.
And what it did, it took, I thought it was taking a picture or something, and it transferred something to the card.
And I said, Why are you all doing this?
They said, Well, if your card is stolen, someone tries to use it to get in, they can't get in because their fingerprint won't match.
I said, So it takes pictures of the fingerprints.
They said, No, no, no.
They said, For example, when you put your finger in, you have a certain fingerprint, and it numbers all of it and puts numbers on them.
And nobody's fingerprint is like yours, so the numbers would be off.
And so, when they said, They said numbers, and I thought I just jumped.
And I said, So it's not taking pictures of my fingerprints.
They said, Oh, no, it's just numbers.
And I realized that there was, and this is years ago.
So I said, Here is a system where you use your hand, you use the card, and your fingerprints are given numbers.
Now, even if you didn't have the card, they have technology now.
All you got to do is put your fingerprints in.
And if the numbers on your prints are already stored in that computer, they would know it was you without having to go through a fingerprint that goes to the government, that goes through government computers.
So my point is that when we talk about a mark and a name and numbers, these systems, even with artificial intelligence, are being developed.
And we're going to see, I believe, Jim, we will see in our lifetime, I believe we'll see it before the return of the Lord, the technology that we will look at and we will say that is the technology that down the road at some point is going to be used in this new economic global system that will eventually be headed up by ten kings and the Antichrist that the Bible warns us about in Revelation chapter 13.
So you said it well.
We are absolutely living in the last days.
Days Are Coming Fast 00:00:34
All this stuff is just coming so fast, it's hard to keep up with.
And what I want to say to people, kind of in maybe a conclusion here, whatever, I don't know how much time we have left, but I'm going to say this to people.
You've heard it preached on for generations.
You've heard it talked about by your parents and grandparents that these days would come.
So don't be depressed.
Don't be upset.
Don't be confused when the prophecies are being fulfilled.
Jesus said, start looking up and lifting up your head because you know your redemption is drawing nigh.
