The book of Revelation is prophecy, it was back then to the churches, and it is to us today. I'm shocked at hearing a teaching (from more than one teacher) that a person can take the mark of the beast, but later repent of it, and still be saved, because it isn't the unpardonable sin. This teaching is false and quite dangerous. When we read in Revelation 14:9-11, the warning is very clear, If anyone takes the mark of the beast, they will drink of the wine of God's wrath, and they will be tormented in hell for eternity. Then, in Revelation 16 God begins to pour out his wrath, and in two verses, 9 and 11, it clearly says, those that took the mark of the beast, and are drinking the wine of God's wrath, DO NOT repent. That is prophecy. Those that take the mark of the beast will endure God's wrath, they will NOT repent, and they will be tormented in hell forever. God's Word is true and sure.
According to the one well known teacher (whose name I suppose I should keep out of here); theoretically someone could do such a thing. He may have retracted somewhat from a statement made over 40 years ago; but clearly a stronger apology should have been given.
I strongly support the theory that the mark will be a genetic mutation to take the DNA of the Angel of Abaddon or Apollyon who is the king of the bottomless pit. He is the one who comes out immediately before the two prophets are killed; resurrected and then Antichrist appears to come back from his deadly wound. That will probably give a promise of eternal life and indestructibility to those who take this mark. This ties into the Nephilim and the fallen angels who were not given any reprieve; and explains why Noah was said to be "perfect in his generations" in Genesis 6. It is likely that the suffering for 5 months will be the final conditioning for this to occur after the seal and most of the trumpet judgments. Perhaps they will blame the believers for all of that suffering; as certainly is indicated by their response when the 2 prophets are killed.
There is no doubt that much compromising in today's largely Laodicean church will allow the slip into the Mystery Babylon harlot church after the Rapture.
The lack of belief in many fundamental core doctrines even among "evangelicals" is quite shocking. I'm sure hell itself isn't viewed literally by a large percentage if not the majority of professing believers today. You can't have a Holy God and eternal life in heaven without an opposite fate; and that goes with the contrast between God's love and hate; mercy and justice; grace and wrath. Remember the Prophets such as Jeremiah the weeping prophet when seeing such evil to come; Jesus Himself did this when He knew the fate of Israel at large rejecting Him. Be encouraged; you are not alone-continue to sound the trumpet.
Judgment begins with the house of God ( 1 Peter 4:17).
Thank you Richard for your response. I read a lot of your posts, and agree with a lot of what you write. Thanks for all you do in getting the word out. God Bless
I read your posts, your heart shows in your words, and I hope your meetings at the assisted living are going well. This is just to share some things not to debate just that you may look at or study.
The mark: Something similar was done in the Decian persecution in 250 AD under Emperor Decius. A decree that sacrifices be performed in the presence of a Roman magistrate, a signed and witnessed certificate, issued to that effect.
People had to perform a sacrifice to the Roman gods and the well-being of the Emperor. Some Christians were put to death for refusing to perform the sacrifices, others performed the ceremonies and others went into hiding. Without this certificate, they could not go into the marketplaces to buy or set up booths to sell their goods.
In Rev. 13 this is about the worship of the image of the beast, and it will be a choice not by manipulation of DNA, we all will be judged good or bad by what is in our conscience (our spirit) the recorder of all good, bad, every thought, and intention, in today's lingo our hard drive, the place a lie cannot hide. God can see into it and communicate with us through the Holy Spirit (the dwelling place).
If we look at the beast, I agree he will ascend from the bottomless pit. We see this in Rev. 12:17 if you read the original text Satan is standing on the sand then Rev. 13. This beast has seven heads and ten horns but only one mouth, not seven. In Rev. 17 these heads are mountains and in prophecy many times mountains are kingdoms, today we would say nations.
So, what would a head wound be? Would a head wound to death, kill the beast? Do we see a resurrection here or just a restoration of part of the beast? The beast and the two witnesses are given the same amount of time, are they here at the same time? Next, a great earthquake, the seventh trumpet, would that mean the time is up for the antichrist? Rev. 11 and more.

Just some things to look at, not to say I know.
