Not the Mark of the Beast

I keep coming across claim that the vaccine is the mark of the beast. However, the mark of the beast was implemented a long time ago, and the vaccine is only incidentally related to it. This is evident from the fact that the mark is required in order to earn wages or do business. It's nothing more than the id card we use in order to get a job or start a business. There's nothing mysterious or new about it. The only odd thing about it is that so few people recognize their id cards for what they are.

One way we can confirm this is to consider God's kingdom on Earth. This social arrangement, which is projected to replace our current system, has no temples. There are no nation states, nor any registrations of any kinds beyond what is voluntarily agreed upon through voluntary contracts.

Kings are mentioned, but this does not imply the existence of nation states. The original meaning of this archetype is merely a powerful land owner. Such people are not endowed with any special rights to register and coerce people into paying taxes. The kings that exist in the kingdom of God are bound by the golden rule, just as much as everybody else. There is no special class of bureaucrats that can do things that other people would be arrested for doing privately.

It follows from this that id cards, issued by a central bureaucracy, is contrary to God's vision of the world. Such id cards belong to the beast. They are the mark of the beast.

There's also an acronym of three characters that serves as the number of the beast. This too is a long established feature of modern society. Bureaucrats have special privileges that they wield, provided they show a badge with their name, picture, and the three letter acronym of their agency.

None of this has anything to do with the vaccine.

The only thing that ties the vaccine to our id system is the green cards that are currently being pushed. However, green cards are merely a layer on top of our system of id cards. Green cards are not the mark of the beast. They are applications based on the mark that we already have.

Some people make a point out of the fact that the stab of the vaccine leaves a mark, but no-one is required to show this to anybody. The only vaccine related thing we're sometimes required to show is our vaccine status.

The only mention of the stab in the Bible is a brief incident that happens in the Revelation. A global swarm of scorpion demons inject non-believers with their venom. The episode is not tied directly to the mark of the beast. It's mentioned as a curiosity. It's a sign we should look for to know that things are out of whack.

Another observation regarding this prophesy is that hardly anyone regret the incident of the scorpion demons. Those injected by their venom don't repent nor change their ways. The incident fades into obscurity. Hence, it serves purely as a sign, and should be treated as such. If no-one is prosecuted, and hardly anyone regrets any of the nonsense we're currently living through, we know that things are about to get serious.

As for the remedy to all of this, we're advised to be meek. We mustn't go face to face against the beast. The beast has no real authority, so there's no point in petitions, nor is there any point in demonstrations or riots. Rather, we should build community with God's kingdom on Earth, aka the 5th Empire, as our ultimate goal.

This doesn't mean that we should sever all ties with the current system. That would only get us in trouble. We have to go about our project in a sensible way.

The trick is to do our thing without announcing it to anyone. When the beast demand that we do certain things in a certain way, we can do a Southwest Airlines. It yields the desired results, without the dangers of arrests and fees that come with open rebellion.

Whenever possible, the beast should be avoided. Little by little, we remove our shackles. Everything we do should be with our ultimate aim in mind. My wife and I buy our vegetables directly from farmers who put our cash payments directly into their pockets. This bypasses taxation, and the beast is thereby starved.

Finally, we have to keep in mind that our current enslavement is an edifice several thousand years in the making, so we can't expect to achieve our goal over night. However, we can become free in spirit simply by recognizing what our ultimate goal is, and to strive towards it as best we can.
