Has anyone heard of the Real ID Act? Could we be getting close to the mark of the beast?

Unfortunately, I have not heard anything about this act actually passing, but if you are right, then we should avoid it at all costs, including guillotines.  \n\nYes, I do believe that we are comming very near to the mark of the beast, and many religious scholars believe that it will be a very deceptive mark like a bar code that will be imposed on us as some sort of convenience to just "scan & go".  A computer chip would be equally sneaky.  I would say that as long as we have not yet witnessed the peace treaty in Isreal or a one world leader, then we are not there yet.  The thing to remember is that the mark of the beast will be on your right hand or forehead.  If they try to get you to put this chip or anything else in either of those places, "SAY NO!"\n\nBy the way, I was watching an episode of CSI Miami a while back and they had girls with these chips implanted just under the skin in their chest.  It was a new form of credit card.  I have no idea if this is similar to the one you are referring to, but it is an interesting concept.\n\nhttp://news.com.com/FAQ+How+Real+ID+will+affect+you/2100-1028_3-5697111.html?tag=st.num\nI just read this article from cnet and it doesn't say anything about this being placed on our bodies.  It is just going to be an ID card like your driver's license, but with more security features.  I think the tracking device will end up being challenged in the courts as unconstitutional, but they have three years to figure that out.  I think that the card itself is pretty harmless, but the database could be a precursor for things to come.

I do not know about the symbols.  I haven't heard much about a national ID lately, I think it's been tabled.

If you read Rev 13:11-18, it talks about the wild beast granting power to an image of itself to be able to put people under it's compulsion.  To show this, it would mark the number 666 in the foreheads of those that follow it.  Nobody would be able to anything unless it had this number marked on their foreheads.  So it's talking about people - not the devil. It's man's number.\n\nThroughout the Bible the number 7 denotes completion.  The number 6 is one short of 7, so it denotes imperfection.  The number 3 denotes emphasis.  Since this number is marked on the foreheads of man, it emphasizes human imperfection.\n\nWhat it's saying is that there will come a time before the end of this wicked system when those who do not worship this beast won't be able to do much of anything, while those who worship it and have that mark (the wicked people) and will be able to enjoy all the freedoms for a period of time.  That will  begin a Great Tribulation that only the righteous will survive (see Rev 7:9-17.)  This is because the Lamb of God will save them.  \n\nIt's a little more detailed than this, but I'm trying to keep it simple.  The Bible does NOT contridict itself - most people just don't understand it.

In Rev. 13:18, it says, "This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666." That's the source for it. It also says in v. 16-17 that that mark will be placed on everyone because we will not be able to buy or sell without it. Basically a tracking system. In fact, the entirety of Chapter 13 is about satan and him coming to enslave the world.\n\nAnd why are you embarrassed to talk about it with your Bible teacher?  That's his/her job. If they intimidate you perhaps you need to find a new Bible study group. Just a thought.

Not real. The right to the Hobbit are in the works right now. Rumor has it that Peter Jackson will be doing it.

Although I probably wouldn't call it a monster, I definitely believe the evidence indicates it exists.  I guess it would certainly seem like a monster except to another Bigfoot. The evidence for Bigfoot goes back to Native American legends.  The footprint evidence alone, for those who really understand it, is extremely compelling.  The consistent reports of its behavior and looks is hard to explain.  Certainly some of this could be due to seeing something on TV but I don't think it accounts for all sightings and certainly not the ones before TV.  It is kind of sad to me that ignorance of this subject is so widespread.  For me it is one of the most interesting of subjects.  \n\nThe person who said that no hair or scat has been found is mistaken.  There has been numerous hairs and scat found.  DNA has so far been unsuccessful in determining origin.  The typcial BF hair lacks a medulla which typcially contains the DNA.  I do think that if someone could get a good hair with a root, it could be proved.  \n\nSomeone said that the wife of someone was in the suit.  Actually the wife of Ray Wallace was in a rediculous fur suit that wouldn't fool a 4 year old but the journalists failed to show the real suit and instead showed the Patterson film suggesting it was her.  The New York Times and other journalist should have been able to figure this out but I guess they don't quite rate up to a 4 year old's intellect.  Well in fact the NYT knew that the woman was in a different suit but it made a better story to suggest that she was the one in the famous film.  The Wallace family is seeking to capitalize on their father Ray, who died recently and who produced numerous hoaxes.  They have apparently even signed a movie deal with Judge Rheinhold.  The story is interesting, but the greatest hoax of all was that he fooled all the journalist in the end.  I really have no reason to think his family is pulling a fraud, they are just ignorant.   Ray Wallace's wooden feet and fur suit were extremely amatuerish.   He gained his interest after a bigfoot visited a construction site that he was contracted to construct, though not present at, above Bluff Creek in Northern California.  The Patterson film showing a female bigfoot walking next to Bluff Creek, 10 years later is real in my opinion.  It certainly wasn't Wallace's wife.  His wife is probably in the suit on this link: http://www.smh.com.au/ffximage/2005/10/16/bigfoot_narrowweb__200x308.jpg

Mark of the Beast \nRevelation 13:16-18 states: \n"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666."

It is the mark of the beast.  It basicly means that those who have this number on their head on hand have worshiped the power of the beast and given themselves to it.  What is the beast?  I could say, but that would be no fun.  I will give you some hints though.  It is a religious power that rises out of Europe after the fall of Rome (and 3 of the tribes of the fallen empire are taken out) that acts as sovereign nation.  It has much wealth and wants to change the lasw of God.

I saw the same thing and am trying to find that gospel and the gospel of Mary and to tell you the truth all of the gospels they were talking about. I'm not so sure that it is real or fake but the bible says test all things.... also says seek wisdom, not just biblical wisdom. Kudos from me, your on the right track...however, I seriously doubt the authenticity of the book. Googling it doesn't help much!

As of this date there is no such identification.  Talk of such has been around for years, but if we remaine alert we can keep it from occuring.

It is absolutely a real entity! When the New World Order comes about, things will get terrible. Prejudice towards fundamental religions, particularly Christianity, will get really tough. Beware! (I am dead serious)

Have you contacted them directly?  If you know the state they reside you can do a public records search to see if they are a licensed entity though that doesn't mean they are legitemate.  I would check out the site myself, but I'm a little leary about going to sites I don't know 100%.  Good Luck!

I have a real concern about this.  It is hard to believe this got through by attaching it to a Military spending bill.  I don't like the parallels it runs to the Biblical "Mark"\nWithout this National ID, you won't... \nDrive your car \nBoard a plane, train, or bus \nEnter any federal building \nOpen a bank account \nHold a job \nIf you can’t hold a job or have a bank account, how much buying and selling will you be able to do?

The mark of the beast is the fact that people are going to worship the devil when he comes pretending to be Jesus. When one is taken away in the field and the other stays, this means that the person that is taken away because she goes to worship the false Jesus.\n\nRevelations  13:11 \n"And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon."\n\nThe two horns represent power like the Lamb (Jesus). But, he spake as a dragon (devil).\nBasically he looked like Jesus, but, spake like the devil. This is how people worship the devil. Because the devil is pretending to be Jesus.
