Watch the only video in the world identifying the mark of the beast as money.

I guess it could be if one was receiving it in their right hand or in their forehead !! And it has the number 666
Revelation 13:16
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Oh, we’re doing that again? Alright, let’s pull this beast by the horns.

Claim: “Money is the mark of the beast.”

Reality: Revelation doesn’t need your conspiracy theory fanfiction.

Let’s get surgical with the Scriptures:

“He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark…” — Revelation 13:16–17

Now, read that slowly. The mark isn’t money. It’s the prerequisite for engaging in commerce. That’s like saying the steering wheel is the car because you can’t drive without it. Missed the mark—literally.

Money has existed for thousands of years—coins, cattle, salt, paper, crypto, you name it. Is every form of transaction now satanic? Should we all go back to bartering chickens for sandals? Paul handled money. Jesus told Peter to pull tax money out of a fish’s mouth. Was the Lord promoting the beast economy? Please.

Here’s the truth: The mark of the beast isn’t a coin in your wallet—it’s a compromise in your worship. It’s allegiance. It’s loyalty. It’s saying yes to the system that says no to Christ. And that, friend, is way deeper than what’s in your pocket.

So before we start baptizing baseless TikTok theology as gospel truth, maybe ask: Am I letting fear drive my doctrine, or the Word of God?

Money isn’t the mark. Idolatry is. And some folks are making an idol out of bad interpretations.

Hi,
The mark itself is like a credit card number you have to have to perform any official buying or selling.
The number will be imprinted on your forehead or wrist area.
When I first heard this back in the mid 1970s, I thought, ‘how can this be?’
Who would want some gastly number tattooed on their body?
You know what also came out in the mid seventies, the supermarket bar code system.
Scanners and bar codes are common place nowadays.
You don’t think twice about using them today.
But you would still have that ungodly tattoo.
You know what else has since been developed?
You can now put an identity chip in dogs and cats so if they ever do run away, we can figure out to whom they belong.
No big tattoo.
The dog or cat is not even aware of the chip
This same technology could be used in children.
Lost children could be identified immediately and returned to their parents.
That’s what could sell the chipping of our children to the parents.
Christians will protest.
But after hearing kids being found because of this tech, even Christians will have to admit that the tech works.
Here comes the beast.
He says anybody buying or selling has to use their identity chip for proof of a valid transaction.
People will not cry out in outrage.
Most will think it’s a good idea.
No longer will one need to carry a wallet, or cash.
ATMs will not be necessary.
You simply scan your chip, select debit or credit, and your transaction is done.

The scariest part of all that, is that it could probably happen as early as about 25 years from now.
People are being set up for it now.
I have not heard of children being chipped yet.
But I do think will happen.

Blessings
