Guarding the Good Deposit

"Follow the pattern of sound words...in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit entrusted to you." 2 Timothy 1:13, 14 *** Biblically-related ramblings from Pastor Jason, Northside Calvary Church, Racine, Wisconsin ***

Flying Shoes

Prophecy makes pretty plain that people living during the rule of the one Scripture calls the "Antichrist" will be required to have an identifying marker in their hand or forehead in order to do any buy or sell.

An Ohio company has embedded silicon chips in two of its employees - the first known case in which US workers have been "tagged"” electronically as a way of identifying them.

CityWatcher.com, a private video surveillance company, said it was testing the technology as a way of controlling access to a room where it holds security video footage for government agencies and the police.

Sean Darks, chief executive of CityWatcher, said the glass-encased chips were like identity cards. They are planted in the upper right arm of the recipient, and "read" by a device similar to a cardreader.

"There'’s nothing pulsing or sending out a signal," said Mr Darks, who has had a chip in his own arm. "It's not a GPS chip. My wife can't tell where I am."

So far around 70 people in the US have had the implants, the company said.

Scripture indicates that the removal of the true Church from this world will take place prior to the Tribulation. If so, make sure your flying shoes are ready!

You're welcome! I have often thought about investing in what the Bible predicts about the future. Putting your money into companies that do the chip thing would be a neat way to make a little money to be used for the Lord from something to be used against Him. Haven't quite done it, just thought about it.

Be careful about what you've heard -- the pretrib rature is not a new doctrine (as in 150 yrs). There is evidence that the early church believed in it (over 1500 years ago).
