It seems to me that the Mark of the Beast will need to have some spiritual component to it. There is nothing intrinsically different in an electronic money system than a paper money system. A signature is a crude biometric identification system. If in the future you are required to deny Jesus as your Lord and Savior as a prerequisite to having your "id chip" installed then we are talking about the Mark of the Beast. Short of that, what we are discussing is merely a more efficient way of doing business. One that in principle is no different from what we have today.

>> You stop short of naming the role of the USA and stating signs. <<

God is not concerned with national borders. all prophecy revolves around the spiritual vs. the carnal. spiritual israel, the true israel of God, oppsed to carnal or worldly israel which is satan's counterfeit. new or heavenly jerusalem, representing the new covenant in Christ, vs. old or earthly jerusalem which represents the old covenant of bondage and death.

>> The USA is the force that is forcing the New World Order on the rest of the world. <<

satan and his seed of evildoers are the ones responsible for the deceiving of the nations, not a specific country. granted, this seed of evildoers does control the united states and the u.n.

>> And I think the NWO is actually the beast system of "no one can buy or sell without the mark" <<

i would like to delve into the beast kingdom of daniel and revelation here shortly, but not until it is clearly demonstrated to all here that jerusalem is the great whore of revelation that sits atop the beast.

>> The institution of a biometric identification system for identification and in financial matters would be a sign to me that the time is at hand. Like this is it. It's here. Politically Christianity has been stigmatized to the point that Christians who resist this biometric system could be labeled enemy combatants under the new anti-terrorism laws and arrested and held without any rights to due process under the law. And the public is sufficiently anti-christian to tolerate this rounding up "in the name of security" according to the current president. This would be the beast "making war against the saints and overcoming them". <<

with all due respect, you are thinking in an entirely geo-political realm. this is how deceitful teachers such as hal lindsey and tim lahaye seek to lead people astray. the answers to the mark of the beast are found within scripture, not within newspaper headlines.
