2 Thessalonians 2:7 ( for the mystery of iniquity doth already work; only he who now letteth will let until he is taken out of the way)
Many Christians had misinterpreted the meaning of this mark by thinking that it’s after rapture that whoever remains will receive it to trade for food and social amenities.
Mark of the Beast is already at work, and whoever dies in sin and refuses to accept Christ as his saviour will have it encrypted on their forehead in hell.
Anti-Christ is anything that goes against the knowledge of Christ that’s working to pull down the work of God.
Whoever is in sin remains an antichrist until Christ finds him and brings him over to His side by the power of redemption.
Anyone who remains in sin till death do their part without having an encounter with Christ won’t have his name written in the Book of Life, and whoever was saved and turned his back to Christ will have himself to blame when Christ comes.
That is because whoever finds himself in hell at the end of his life journey worked against Christ till the end; it’s when Christ will come and take His people that whoever remains and bows for the beast shall be sealed permanently with this mark of destruction.
Every sinner has it; unless it’s cleansed by the blood of the lamb, it will remain permanent till the day of judgement.
This is what Satan sees in sinners to bring their destruction; it’s only those who bear the mark of Christ that are out of his reach. That is why the apostle Paul said, “Lest no man trouble me, for I bear the mark of Christ.”.
Either you bear the mark of Christ now or have the mark of the beast. No one can sit on the fence.
Antichrists work in every area of human society; they work in hospitals and offices; they work in every organisation wherever human beings can be found; they work against the gospel to pull it down; they’re even in the church of God manipulating the gospel and turning it upside down for it not to fulfil the purpose for which it was sent.
Whenever the devil enlisted someone in his service, he marked him for destruction; those who entered cultism and sold their souls to Satan are already with this mark, which is why it’s difficult to bring them to Christ unless with prayers and divine intervention.
Mark of the Beast is a seal of the devil for destruction; it needs thorough cleansing of the blood to make one pure.
Whoever works for Satan knowingly or unknowingly is bearing this invisible mark; that is how the devil’s agents identify who belongs to their side even though he hid himself amongst the saints; that’s why it’s good to visit the cross and have it cleaned before death comes.
The names of those who have it are written at the entrance of the gates of hell, waiting to stand against them in judgement.
It’s the power of redemption that’ll wipe it out and have the name written in the Book of Life.
The Cross is the fountain where the blood of Christ flows for the remission of sin; it’s only the blood of the Lamb that has the power to wipe it off and make a life perfect.
This mark is given to all the agents of darkness, even their captives inside their prisons.
It’s invisible to the natural eyes, but it will be so glaring in hell when everyone knows where you belong after the rapture that no one will be able to hide it anymore.
If you’re waiting for the antichrist to manifest before you can reject it, you’re fooling yourself; if you are not truly committed to God this time around, you won’t be able to resist it when the time comes.
It’s the people who have the mark of Christ that will meet with rapture. All other people will find themselves in hell while remaining on earth after Christ has come to take His people home.
Satan wants to mark everyone for destruction before they can have their ways in life; this is the essence of cults and fraternities. No wonder it’s very difficult to pull some people to Christ, for they already have the mark by paying obeisance to Satan; they won’t be able to deny their fellowship with the powers of darkness.
It will come to full manifestation after the rapture that there won’t be buying and selling except you receive the mark and identify with Satan openly; if you’re not ready to receive it, be ready to pay the price for your salvation with your blood because by then, the blood of Christ won’t be effective to save you.
Now is the time of salvation by letting the blood of Jesus perform its ancient works and bring your perfection by giving your life to him.
This mark can only be identified by the spirit of discernment through the power of the holy spirit, but by that time, it will be glaring for everyone to see who belongs to the Lord’s side or who is on the side of Satan.
Men are taking it secretly now by identifying with Satan to have the things of life, but by then, it will operate openly where no one can hide.
If you think that it’s not taking the chips manufactured by the people of darkness that can save you, you’re lying to yourself. If you continue in that sin, you’ve already gotten it.
You won’t know until you get to hell that you’ll see it on your forehead, glaring for you to behold.
Unbelievers are carrying the mark; likewise, a sinner in the church, whenever the work of the flesh is manifesting, the mark of the beast is already there.
Mark of the Beast is what makes you remain adamant about the true gospel and find fault in the messages of holiness.
It’s what makes you hear but not listen, what makes you argue with the word of God and say, “It doesn’t matter.”.
That is why we are shouting day and night for you to go to the cross and repent genuinely to have your sins removed and get the mark cleansed.
That is the only solution to it; if the rapture occurs, the blood of Jesus will no longer be effective.
The situation of man by then will be like those people in hell at the moment they receive the mark of the beast; their destination would have been sealed forever, and nothing can change it.
It’s at Christ’s return when the saints would have been raptured that the power of Satan will manifest in full measure without restriction, when the holy spirit that was restricting Him would have left with the saints, that is, when those who belong to him will come openly to pay him homage by accepting his mark and doing his will.
How do you think you will resist the mark after the rapture, when the LORD would have released His undiluted wrath against disobedience of men?
Is it your faith that couldn’t take you to meet with Christ up there that will face Antichrist in his rage against mankind?
Whoever failed to meet the rapture will forever regret coming to the world when they’ll face His undiluted wrath.
It’s better to throw out whatever is hindering you from walking perfectly before God before it’s too late so that the mercy of God will locate you and put your name inside the book of life.
Prayer: Father, Lord, uphold me with your right hand of power; don’t let me perish with the world at your return in Jesus’ name, amen
