What is the Mark of the Beast? (It's Not What You Think)
Welcome to Day 10 of our Revelation Devotional series! In this episode, Senior Pastor Mike Woodruff tackles one of the most debated and sensationalized topics in the Bible: the Mark of the Beast. Moving beyond fear, conspiracy theories, and Hollywood depictions, Pastor Mike provides a clear, theological perspective on what this symbol truly means for believers today.
Forget the panic about barcodes and microchips. This discussion reveals that the mark is less about future technology and more about a present-day allegiance. Discover the powerful contrast between the Beast and the Lamb, and learn what it means to live with faithful endurance in a world that often pulls us away from God.
In this video, you'll learn:
- What Revelation Chapter 13 actually says about the mark.
- Why the mark is best understood as a symbol of allegiance, not a physical barcode.
- The critical contrast between the Beast's system and the Lordship of Christ.
- The sobering truth that most people will go along with the world's system.
- The practical ways to resist compromise and stay faithful to Jesus.
This is a call to shift our focus from fear of the Beast to amazement with the Lamb. If you want to understand this challenging topic from a biblical, hopeful, and practical perspective, this devotional is for you.
