Financial Control
The Truth About "The Great Deception"
The
Mark of the Beast
Worldwide
Financial Control
♦ "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." (Revelation 13:15 - 17)
No prediction in the Bible is more descriptive or crystal
clear in it’s meaning than these two verses. A mark, defined as "a
scratch or etching", by Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, forcibly
placed on the bodies of every human on Earth and used for control of
financial transactions worldwide, was not even conceivable until the
last century.
With the "terrorist threat" proclaimed by the world’s most
powerful forces now overshadowing all global events, such tight
control over individual identity is not only conceivable now, but
also inevitable. The technology is on the market through such
companies as Applied Digital Solutions and growing in popularity as
the imagined need for unprecedented security worldwide is emphasized
in an ever-increasing crescendo. Once this system is in place and
becomes a law rather than a concept, total global corporate control
will be completed, and the most specific biblical prophecy will be
fulfilled.
The Church view of the Mark of the Beast is as vague as its
approach to any doctrinal issue; the mark has something to do with
the number 666 and will be the mark of Satan's followers. The
monetary connection is virtually ignored, and the only purpose noted
is that it is a sure ticket to a fiery hell. The Bible view leaves
no doubt about its purpose, or its source; it will be required for
every human on the planet to conduct any financial transaction. The
mark is not the number 666, and there is no indication that mankind
will be forced to take this mark. No single prophecy in the Bible is
more clearly defined and easy to identify than the Mark of the
Beast.
It must be strongly emphasized that the mark is 'not' the
number 666; it is specifically noted that this number is the number
of a man, and not the mark. Also, there is no indication that
mankind will be forced to take this mark, but rather receive it, and
that it is a necessity to buy or sell, for all mankind, at all
levels of society. The Beast is not specifically identified, and the
word "he" in these verses can be translated as "it". This Beast, and
the ones preceding it, are considered as powers, not persons. The
image, which somehow takes on a life-like presence, is a likeness,
an icon or representation of that power.
The Important
Points
· The
Beast causes an inanimate object, or organization called "an image",
to speak, and take on a life-like existence, and forces mankind to
pay homage to this "image" under penalty of death. The word image is
translated from the Greek word eikon, pronounced i-kone'; a
likeness, i.e. (literally) statue, profile, or (figuratively)
representation, resemblance. This shows that whatever this image is,
it is some sort of representation of the Beast.
· The
image, now causes all mankind to receive a mark, defined in the
Greek as a "a scratch or etching", in or on their right hand, or
their forehead.
· Without
this form of identity, the authority of the Beast, or a number of
the authority of the Beast, no one is allowed to buy or sell.
· That
number is to be totaled, it is the number of the Beast, the number
of a human being, and it is 666.
· The
living, talking image is is the source of the mark, and has power to
force loyalty to itself and death for refusal to worship it.
· The
mark is used to control all commerce in all levels of society, and
all those doing business must have this mark, or the authority, of
the Beast.
· The
mark is a something scratched, or etched into the skin, and not the
number 666
· The
implementation of the mark into the financial sector is "caused",
not forced.
Can This Happen Now?
· Only
isolated areas of commerce are not totally controlled by computers.
· The
world is rapidly becoming a cashless global society.
· Only
small portions of the total global monetary flow are in cash
transactions.
· The
terrorist threat has brought pressure to bear for high security and
stricter identification requirements.
· Control
of all global financial transactions is being tightened.
· National
identification is not just being considered, it is being planned.
· Computers
are now capable of voice recognition and speech duplication.
· The
technology for implanting every human on the planet with global
location and identification devices is on the market, and already
cost effective.
· If
this "mark" is a necessary aspect of doing business and moving
through the society, there will be no need to force anyone to
receive it. The only reference to anyone being forced into an action
in this context is that those who would not worship the "image" of
the beast should be killed.

The Deception of the
Corporations and the Powerful Elite
♦
Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at
all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall
be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great
men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
Here, the source of the greatest deception in the history of
mankind is solidly connected to big business, and the people who
control and profit from it. Not alien invaders in UFOs, not
Communism, not satanic cults, but the very entities that control
virtually every aspect of human society, the corporate empires.
Their total disregard for human welfare, and the very planet they
occupy, should make that clear, but that is what makes the deception
so insidious. They not only control the purse strings and the flow
of essential goods and services through control of all major media
sources, they also control the information that the world receives.
They not only control the physical aspects of life, but the way the
society thinks, thus assuring the deception will continue unnoticed
and uncontrolled.
Corporate
Personhood - Life to the Image
We are living in the age of "global commerce", about this most
agree. We are also living at the beginning of an age of "global
commercial control", about this, only few are aware. Capitalism,
with all its trappings, is the dominant financial model for the
entire world. Capitalism has no god, but it is money, the acquiring
of it, and the steady increase of the bottom-line that it serves,
and is completely dedicated to. Considering the Bible clearly states
that total dedication to money, avarice, is the root of all evil,
this means the world is serving, and dedicated to an entity, which
is an anathema to the very nature of God. And, at the head of this
entity, which the world serves, is the cold, immortal, all-powerful
corporation.
The Aberrant
Nature and Power of the Corporation
What is most disturbing about our capitalist-driven society is
the sudden rise to power and prominence over almost every aspect of
life by corporations. Merriam-Webster defines a corporation as 1 a
obsolete : a group of merchants or traders united in a trade guild b
: the municipal authorities of a town or city "2 :a body formed and
authorized by law to act as a single person although constituted by
one or more persons and legally endowed with various rights and
duties including the capacity of succession."
The first corporation was formed in England as a tool to
exploit the wealth of vast areas of the world they were colonizing
in the 17th Century. As North America was colonized, corporations
provided the huge amounts of capital the Monarchy needed to assert
sovereignty and control over the colonies. Corporations at that time
had a lifespan of a mere 20 years to accomplish their clearly stated
goals with fixed capitalization. As a means of encouraging
investment massive in risky foreign ventures, the Crown protected
investors from legal, as well as financial, responsibility related
to their investment, freeing them from any liability for the debts
of the corporations. One of the basic principles of common law, the
responsibility of the individual business investors, was dropped. It
was the power of these corporations, in their attempt to dominate
one of the basic staples of the colonies, tea, which sparked the
American Revolution.
The Declaration of Independence freed citizens from not only
British control over colonial government, but British corporations
as well, and for a century after independence Americans kept tight
control over corporate power. The early corporations were conceived
as institutions serving the public's interest. There were only about
200 corporations operating in the US by the early 19th Century,
which were not permitted to engage in the political process, nor
were they allowed to own stock in other corporations. They were
held to strict adherence to the public interest, and were severely
punished, or had their charters revoked for failure to comply with
the laws governing them.
This tight control and forced dedication to the public
interest ended when the model for modern corporations came to life
in 1886. In a strange ruling, or better phrased, the eventual
strange outcome of a U. S. Supreme Court decision on the ruling in
the Santa Clara County vs. Southern Pacific Railroads, the face of
corporate power shifted dramatically. This simple dispute over
fences bordering a railroad siding resulted in a radical
transformation in the very nature of corporations, or more
appropriately, they were given immortal life. In an incredible
perversion of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution meant to insure
the rights of slaves after the Civil War, the Supreme Court ruled
that a private corporation was a actually a "natural person," and
entitled to the same rights and privileges as any human being. It
not only legally gave life to corporations; it fundamentally changed
the United States and the world completely.
At this point we have revealed a little known, but not
completely ignored reality about how a seemingly benign commercial
entity actually given power equal to, and exceeding that of living
human beings. It needs to be understood that this is not an
unfounded theory, but a very solid fact based on clear evidence
found in the public record. We present several sources that will
show how relevant this concept is, and how corporations are now able
to control every aspect of human life they choose. We cannot
emphasize strongly enough that all who read these words thoroughly
inform themselves of the extreme threat this reality presents.

Corporations Have the
Power of Speech
The Image Speaks
The prophecy about the image, which requires the mark for all
financial transactions worldwide, is said to be given the power of
speech after it is brought to life. This power was given to
corporations by no less than a gross usurping of the free speech
guaranteed to living human beings under the First Amendment to the
Constitution. Now corporations not only have the same rights as
living beings, they now can speak with the same force and rights of
human beings. In a 1996 Supreme Court ruling they are even
guaranteed the unfettered freedom to lie, like living human beings.
· A
1978 Supreme Court ruling enhanced the idea of corporate personhood
by declaring that corporations had the free speech right to
contribute funds to political causes.
· A
1996 a U.S. Appellate Court ruling struck down a Vermont law that
would infringe on corporations' "negative" speech rights, and held
it unconstitutional.
As with corporate personhood, corporate free speech is a little
known, but not ignored reality. We have provided resources to give
further insight into this rather strange concept.

A
"Mark" Determines Who Can Buy or Sell
VeriChip™ - An
Exact Fulfillment of Prophecy
A current trend now evidenced in our
society is focusing on the new "terrorist threat and the corporate
obsession with tracking commerce closely. The ever-present
government thrust toward monitoring every move of its citizens makes
global control over all finances more than just a remote
possibility. Such a system is in place, and becoming a popular
choice for the military, the medical profession, and virtually any
person, or any organization that needs to track, or identify
anything, anywhere.
The leader in global identification for
financial purposes using human implants is Applied Digital
Solutions. In October 2000, Applied Digital Solutions unveiled a
skin-implantable chip called the Digital Angel. Now called
"VeriChip™", this devise is a simple skin-implantable chip combining
wireless technology, biosensor micro engineering, and heat-sensitive
power regeneration. Utilizing a worldwide network of satellites and
ground stations, anyone with the proper access can know who you are,
where you are, where you have been, and how you are, at any time,
anywhere in the world. The implanted chip can transmit data on the
implantee's identification, precise location, and vital statistics,
such as body temperature, blood sugar content, pulse rate, and even
blood pressure.
Applied Digital Solutions and others
have touted devices like VeriChip as the ideal technology for
instantly monitoring medical patients, tracking livestock conditions
and movements, managing the inventory and transit of manufactured
goods, locating lost or stolen property, and to provide vital
security for those vulnerable to kidnappers. With no alteration,
this implant technology could easily become a global identification
system used to control the entire world's financial and security
needs.
On the VeriChip website you can find "Authorized Centers and
Distributors", and a form to Pre-Register for your personal
VeriChip, and this announcement that "The ChipMobile is on the Move!
Watch for the Chip Mobile coming to your town!"
· You
will also find this description of the device:
"VeriChip is a miniaturized,
implantable radio frequency identification device (RFID) that has
the potential to be used in a variety of security, financial, and
other applications. About the size of a grain of rice, each VeriChip
product contains a unique verification number and will be available
in several formats. The verification number is captured by briefly
passing a proprietary scanner over the VeriChip. A small amount of
radio frequency energy passes from the scanner energizing the
dormant VeriChip, which then emits a radio frequency signal
transmitting the verification number."
· And
this description of the "Security Identification" applications of
the device:
"In the security field, the company
is actively developing applications for VeriChip in a variety of
security, defense, homeland security and secure-access applications.
These opportunities include using VeriChip to control authorized
access to government installations and private-sector buildings,
nuclear power plants, national research laboratories, correctional
facilities, and sensitive transportation resources. VeriChip can
enhance airport security, airline security, cruise ship security,
intelligent transportation and port congestion management. In these
markets, VeriChip could function as a stand-alone, tamper-proof
personal verification technology or it could operate in conjunction
with other security technologies such as standard ID badges and
advanced biometric devices (i.e. retina scanners, thumbprint readers
or face recognition devices). The Company recently unveiled VeriPass
and VeriTag, which will allow airport and port security personnel to
link a VeriChip subscriber to his or her luggage (both during
check-in and on the airplane), flight manifest logs and airline or
law enforcement software databases. The concept of using VeriChip as
a means for secure access could also be extended to include a range
of consumer products such as PCs, laptops, cars, cell phones, and
even homes and apartments."
· And
this telling explanation of the "Financial Identification"
applications of the device:
"In the financial arena, the company
sees enormous, untapped potential for VeriChip as a personal
verification technology that could help to curb identity theft and
prevent fraudulent access to banking (especially via ATMs) and
credit card accounts. VeriChip's tamper-proof, personal verification
technology would provide banking and credit card customers with the
added protection of knowing their accounts could not be accessed
unless they themselves initiated -- and were physically present
during -- the transaction.
· From
VeriChip Personal Identification System - Frequently Asked
Questions:
Question: How about other
uses of VeriChip? Isn’t it used for security screening?
Answer: We are promoting
VeriChip as a universal means of identification. We expect it to be
used in a variety of applications including financial and
transportation security, residential and commercial building access,
military and government security.
An
Amazing Prophecy
There have been
many theories about the Mark of the Beast, the most prominent being
that it is some sort of implant. The connections this work has
made have revealed an undiscovered link to a possible prophesized
virus attack on the computer system controlling that mark.
This not only verifies the financial connection to the mark but
shows another effect it will have in last days.
The relationship between the Mark of the Beast and the VeriChip
System could not be more obvious. An implantable microchip
that can instantly identify you for financial verification anywhere
in the world is exactly what the prophecy describes, and exactly
what Applied Digital Solutions produces. Beyond the
"Revelation 13" mention of the mark, it appears in the Revelation
four other times. It is two of those appearances that provide
what may well be a prophecy only possible in the past decade of
internet growth, and the insidious practice of producing and
infecting an uncounted number of computers with "viruses". The
first one speaks of a "sore" related to the mark:
♦
Revelation 16: 2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon
the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men
which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his
image.
In this verse, at first glance, an angel pours something out of
a vial and a smelly, (noisome), and painful sore breaks out on those
who have the mark. Careful examination of two of the
words in the verse could give some unexpected insight into what this
verse may be describing.
·
The word 'noisome' is
translated from the word kakos, pronounced kak-os'a primary word;
worthless (intrinsically, such; whereas GSN4190 properly refers to
effects), i.e. (subjectively) depraved, or (objectively) injurious.
Nothing about a malodor here, but considering this mark is all about
finance, the concept of "worthless" has meaning in context if it
disables the implant's ability to function, meaning that financial
transactions could be halted, making the implant "worthless".
·
The word 'grievous' is
translated from the word poneros, pronounced pon-ay-ros';
hurtful, i.e. evil (properly, in effect or influence, and thus
differing from GSN2556, which refers rather to essential character,
as well as from GSN4550, which indicates degeneracy from original
virtue); figuratively, calamitous; also (passively) ill, i.e.
diseased; but especially (morally) culpable, i.e. derelict, vicious,
facinorous; neuter (singular) mischief, malice, or (plural) guilt;
masculine (singular) the devil, or (plural) sinners. It can be
seen from this definition that this word grievous is not "physical"
pain, but rather that there is a calamitous and evil "effect".
If the implant is, in fact, disabled and no cash, checks, or credit
cards are in use, the result could be very disrupting socially.
If this implant replaces keys, ID badges, access to computers or
secure areas, and other security measures, the effect would
effectively shut down not only the economy, but virtually every
aspect of life including transportation, utilities, medical
services, as well as fire and police departments.
The word sore comes from the Greek word for ulcer, 'helkos',
and a common cause for ulcers are viruses. It may only be a
strange coincidence that the VeriChip implant is tied to computer
technology, however it is a possibility that it may be disabled, and
whatever is in the vial could cause a computer virus-like effect,
but it is a very intriguing possibility. What would add even
more weight to the concept that the implant may be disabled, would
be some indication that there is actually an effect demonstrated
that financial hardship is caused by the action of this substance
the angel poured out of this vial. In two verses following
this prophecy about this strange "sore" being inflicted on mankind,
there is evidence that this is indeed the case:
·
Revelation 16:10 And the fifth
angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his
kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for
pain, 11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and
their sores, and repented not of their deeds.
·
The words ' pain', in verse
10, and 'pains', in verse 11, are both taken from the Greek word
ponos, pronounced pon'-os, from the base of GSN3993; toil, i.e. (by
implication) anguish. Again we see this is not necessarily
physical pain, but the root of this word reveals its origin, and
provides clarity of context in this verse. GSN3993, the base
for the word 'ponos' is penes, pronounced pen'-ace, from a primary
peno (to toil for daily subsistence); starving, i.e. indigent.
This would indicate that this "pain" they are vilifying God for, is
actually the anguish they are experiencing from extreme poverty.
Certainly relevant if the implant is actually disabled and economic
chaos results as there will be millions, perhaps even billions, of
people with no way or place to buy or obtain food.
A complete reading of this chapter will show that God is not
simply tormenting the human race, but that this is in fact quite
similar to the plagues of Egypt God inflicted to persuade Pharaoh to
release the nation of Israel from his grip. In verse 9 we see the
phrase "..and they repented not to give him glory." and in verse 11
this is repeated, "..and they repented not to give him glory."
Rather than change their minds, they curse God. This would
indicate that though not mentioned, there is some form of
communication between humanity and God. And, it would seem
that mankind is being offered an opportunity to "surrender", but is
repeatedly rejecting those offers in this prophecy.
