Is The Covid Vaccine the Mark of the Beast?

 IS THE COVID VACCINE THE MARK OF THE BEAST?

By: Dr. Stephen Jones

Blog Post Date: 

Our assumptions often get us into trouble.

I am no different. For instance, I just posted what Bill Gates has to say about his gene-altering “vaccine,” but my assumptions are quite different from the average believer.

The average believer today will immediately jump to the conclusion that the vaccine is the mark of the beast. Those believers who have already taken the vaccine may become fearful that they took the mark of the beast and will therefore go to hell.

But that is not the case at all. Let me explain.

The occult believes many of the Bible prophecies—that is, they believe their interpretations of Bible prophecy. The present view of the church is based on the Dispensationalist view that Darby and Scofield gave us more than a century ago. Scofield was financed by Samuel Untermyer, a Jewish lawyer who helped frame the Federal Reserve Act.

What do you suppose was Untermyer’s motive? Was he a secret Christian? Hardly.

His job was to promote the Dispensationalist view which included Zionism in order to trick the church into supporting the Jewish state (Edom). Yes, it was all part of the divine plan, because Esau-Edom had to be given the justice that was due to him on account of Jacob’s deception in stealing the birthright.

But the problem is that Christians know almost nothing about Esau-Edom’s history, so they do not know the mind of God in this matter. They do not know the real reason why God allowed the Jewish state to exist for a season. Hence, they were deceived.

Most people are also unaware that the Satanists and occultists set forth their interpretation of eschatology and that the church bought into it. Included in this is the view that in the end times there would be a 7-year tribulation in which “the antichrist” would rise, give everyone the mark of the beast, and rule from a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem practicing animal sacrifice.

This fear-based view was mitigated by the idea of the pre-tribulation “rapture,” giving Christians the impression that they would be gone and would not have to experience tribulation.

Now that we are here, the covid “vaccine” is giving the impression that it is the mark of the beast. It is not. It is the Satanist view of the mark of the beast. They believe that they must fulfill prophecy, but they are actually working only to fulfill their view of prophecy. In fact, they stay up at night trying to figure out how they can fulfill prophecy in a way that makes them wealthy or gives them power. Their downfall is that they misunderstand prophecy.

Those who do not understand the word properly may easily be brought into FEAR. Fear is overcome by faith, but faith comes by hearing the word of truth. It is now more important than ever that we understand Bible prophecy and eschatology. It is important that we understand that the book of Revelation is a book of Church history which continues where Daniel left off.

Daniel deals primarily with the first half (1260 years) of the great tribulation which began with the destruction of Jerusalem in 604 B.C. Revelation deals primarily with the last half of the great tribulation, that is, the final 1260 years. The total is “seven times,” or 7 x 360 years.

The mark of the beast is money. Worshiping money is the root of all evil. Its biblical counterpart is where the law instructs us to put His law on our hands and foreheads, signifying that all that we do and all that we think is in accordance with the law of God. The account in Revelation 13 speaks of the 1790’s and early 1800’s when the beast (Vatican) received a fatal wound. Napoleon took the pope captive in 1798, essentially destroying the Institutional Church. Then he reinstated a pope a few years later in order to have someone crown him as emperor. That is how the deadly wound was healed.

At the same time in 1798 Nathan Rothschild was sent to London to set up the Rothschild bank. The Rothschilds were the inventors of the modern banking system as we know it today. This banking beast is the beast from the earth in the latter half of Revelation 13. Hence, the mark of the beast has nothing to do with the current vaccine. The vaccine is the Satanist view of the mark of the beast. Unfortunately, it may also be the view of many Christians who bought into the deception of Darby and Scofield.

I have taught you differently. In years past, it was not so critical to know the truth. Today it is. All truth has its day of importance. We are responsible to learn the truth before that day arrives, so that we are not thrown into confusion and fear when the time comes.

As bad as the vaccine is, it is not the mark of the beast. It is only something that destroys the body. It is designed to create genetically modified people so that they can be patented and thereby enslaved. It is the same with GM foods. They are trying to steal what God created in order to empower and increase their own kingdom.

So those who have already received the vaccine can find comfort in understanding the word of God. Those who were deceived by Darby and Scofield may now be motivated to seek the word of the Lord for the answer. If not, they could remain in fear of losing their heads or perhaps their salvation.

If we think logically, would anyone lose their salvation if they were tricked into taking the vaccine? The plan is to trick as many as possible and then forcibly vaccinate the rest of the population. Would anyone lose their salvation if they were forced against their will to take the vaccine—even if it were the mark of the beast?

Those who have already taken the vaccine can largely overcome its harmful effects by taking red pine needle oil, by drinking pine needle tea, or by taking Carbon 60. All of these are available online. Carbon 60 is the natural antidote to graphene oxide, which is the main poisonous ingredient in the vaccine.

I don’t know if the gene modification can be overcome, apart from a med bed. But that technology is not yet available to the general public. In the end, I believe that God will heal many people during the outpouring of the Spirit that is coming. The rest will be healed through the med beds.

Meanwhile, the real antidote is to know the word so that we know the mind of God in all things.

The Gospel of Mark & The Kingdom of God



THE GOSPEL OF MARK AND THE KINGDOM OF GOD



THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NEAR
After His forty days in the wilderness, Jesus begins to proclaim the gospel of God or the Kingdom of God.  It is my opinion the primary message of Jesus is contained in verse 15, “the kingdom of God is near.”  Hearers were to repent to enter the kingdom.  The nearness of the Kingdom is the gospel or good news that Jesus was announcing during His earthly ministry. 

Now after John was imprisoned, Jesus went into Galilee and proclaimed the gospel of God. He said, "The time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the gospel!"  (Mark 1:14-15 NET)

The nearness of the kingdom must be one with an ongoing history, one that could come.  God has always ruled the universe and in humble hearts. 

THE HOLY ONE OF GOD
At the beginning of His ministry, Jesus enters a synagogue in Capernaum and begins to teach.  A possessed man comes forward and calls Jesus, “The Holy One of God.”  In the Old Testament the title, “Holy One” is almost exclusively applied to God. Occasionally angels are referred to as “holy ones” and Aaron is called “the Holy One of God” in Psalms 106:16 -- Aaron the saint of the LORD.  The demon was recognizing and displaying Jesus as Isaiah’s “Holy One” and Jesus was exhibiting His authority as God by ordering the demon at be silent.  His authority over demons exhibited His power to overcome to ruler of wickedness in the present age.

Mark 1:23-26 NET  Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,  (24)  "Leave us alone, Jesus the Nazarene! Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are -- the Holy One of God!"  (25)  But Jesus rebuked him: "Silence! Come out of him!"  (26)  After throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him.

HEALING THE UNCLEAN BY TOUCH
Jesus heals three individuals by His touch:  a leper; a woman with a twelve year blood flow; and raises a young girl from the dead.

Ceremonial law forbade people to touch a leper. Since he had been a leper a long time his disease was in the advanced stages.  Yet, it could be said, Jesus did not break that law, because as soon as He touched the man, he was no longer a leper.  The gospels record that Jesus healed people by His word and it was not necessary for His touch, however, it had been an extended time since the leper had felt a touch of any kind.

Mark 1:40-41 KJV  And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.  (41)  And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

The touch was evidently conveying a particular message to the hearers of the gospel.  Some have said Jesus was expressing that ceremonial law was not relevant.  Of course, Jesus would not contract uncleanness, but it is possible that healing purity may flow from Jesus to others contacting Him. 

The woman with the blood flow approached Jesus from behind, touched His garment, and immediately felt in her body that she was healed.  Power flows from Jesus.  His touch is not impurity to Him but purity to the person being touched.  Jesus was instantly aware of the transfer of His healing power.

Mark 5:25-30 NET  Now a woman was there who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years.  (26)  She had endured a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all that she had. Yet instead of getting better, she grew worse.  (27)  When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak,  (28)  for she kept saying, "If only I touch his clothes, I will be healed."  (29)  At once the bleeding stopped, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.  (30)  Jesus knew at once that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched my clothes?"

THE BRIDEGROOM
Jesus was / is the Bridegroom.  In Judaism the bridegroom was not a metaphor of the Messiah, but of the coming Kingdom of God.  In the Old Testament, God proclaimed Himself the Husband of Israel, but He divorced her for infidelity (idolatry).  Jesus is the new Bridegroom of the new Israel or the Church.

Mark 2:19-20 NET  Jesus said to them, "The wedding guests cannot fast while the bridegroom is with them, can they? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they do not fast.  (20)  But the days are coming when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and at that time they will fast.

The bridegroom is taken i.e. dies (verse 20), but the Son of God returns and celebrates with a Messianic banquet for the bride and Groom. Between the death and return, His followers will fast in an appropriate way and at an appropriate time.

He was led away after an unjust trial -- but who even cared? Indeed, he was cut off from the land of the living; because of the rebellion of his own people he was wounded.   (Isaiah 53:8 NET)

LORD OF THE SABBATH
Jesus and the disciples are walking through a wheat field picking and eating heads of wheat as they go.  The Pharisees considered the disciple’s actions of:  harvesting; winnowing; and preparing food on the Sabbath as illegal according to their oral traditions based on Exodus 34:21. The disciples were not doing anything unlawful according to the gleaning laws of the Old Testament but they were performing work on the Sabbath.

A priest is allowed to perform work on the Sabbath because their temple duties require it, however, a wheat field is not a temple.  If Jesus is the true prophetic high priest then where ever His location is the presence of the Holy temple.

Mark 2:23-28 NET  Jesus was going through the grain fields on a Sabbath, and his disciples began to pick some heads of wheat as they made their way.  (24)  So the Pharisees said to him, "Look, why are they doing what is against the law on the Sabbath?"  (25)  He said to them, "Have you never read what David did when he was in need and he and his companions were hungry -- (26)  how he entered the house of God when Abiathar was high priest and ate the sacred bread, which is against the law for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to his companions?"  (27)  Then he said to them, "The Sabbath was made for people, not people for the Sabbath.  (28)  For this reason the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath."

“The Sabbath was made for people” relates to the first Sabbath of God instituted for the first people, Adam and Eve and Jesus is the last Adam.

So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living person"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.  (1 Corinthians 15:45 NET)

The presence of God, which at one point was only present in Solomon’s temple before its destruction by the Babylonians, is now available in the presence of Jesus.  Now, according the gospel of Mark’s portrayal of Jesus as the eschatological arrival of the Kingdom of God, the reality of God’s presence has now drawn near to His people.

PARABLES REVEAL SECRETS OF THE KINGDOM
The secrets of the Kingdom are the truths not previously revealed in the scriptures.  These secrets serve to enhance the prophecies not change or annul them by adding information not available prior to them.  Jesus explained all parables to the disciples. 
In the Bible, a mystery isn’t something that can’t be comprehended,  but rather is something that you would never know unless revealed it to you by God. In the Biblical sense of the idea, you may know exactly what a mystery is, yet it is still a mystery, because you would not have known unless God revealed it.  Jesus was revealing to them an interpretation of Old Testament prophetic revelations.

Mark 4:11-12 NET  He said to them, "The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those outside, everything is in parables,  (12)  so that although they look they may look but not see, and although they hear they may hear but not understand, so they may not repent and be forgiven."
