Applied Digital Solutions Inc. designed the VeriChip - about the size of a grain of rice - to hold information that could be read with special electronic scanners. The company has touted the chip as a potential way to hold a person's medical records or security codes. Applied Digital had held off sales pending discussions with the FDA of whether an implanted chip would be considered a medical device. If the chip solely provides identification, it needs no FDA clearance, the agency confirmed Thursday - advice officials have long given others developing ID for tracking children, prisoners or workers with top-security clearances...For now, the VeriChip will bear only an identification number, said David Hughes of Technology Sourcing International, a consulting firm helping Applied Digital in its discussions with the FDA. But that ID code could be cross-referenced with a database to detail any kind of information. The company said production would begin immediately. VeriChip emits a radio signal and has been derided by some for its 'Big Brother' implications. Applied Digital has said it could prove invaluable in emergency situations when someone is either unconscious or cannot otherwise give information. VeriChip is expected to sell for about 赨. A scanner used to read information contained in the chip would cost between ũ,000 and ū,000. A doctor would insert the chip with a large needle-like device...." (AP, April 4, 2002, WND) Comments: Get ready for this technology to become so common-place that even many saints fall asleep at the feet of it. I am now convinced that when multitudes of Christians disappear, those that claim it was the prophesied translation (rapture), will be persecuted as "hate mongers" and "fanatics." We now have technology being launched into the mainstream, which can fulfill the prophecy in Revelation 13. But how many are PURIFYING their lives in the face of such stage-setting signs? The purpose of prophetic study and WATCHING is so we will stir ourselves to make ourselves READY: 2 Peter 3:11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be FOUND OF HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Guest Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 A. How do you know the mark will be a chip?B. The mark is instituted by the False Prophet, there is no false prophet.C. The AC is nowhere in sight and won't appear until after the 10 nation Mediterranian Condederacy or Revived Rome appears.D. The Confederacy won't come into being until there is a major upheaval in Europe. Probably a war. Certainly the EU is a prophetic zero and just like the chip, "NOT IT".I would say it's all a bunch of hype and nonsense because you are getting way ahead of yourself. Chip indeed. I have seen so many innovations get nominated as the mark, each replaced by a newer technology, none of them correct. Pardon me if I consider this chip just another yawner.

Ready the people for the lord. And those people who are left behind, need to have something to start with, and I hope the ones we dont reach today, will find this and other christian chit chat about what we thought at the time was worth reporting.Mabey they will have a better understanding of the mark, cause a lot of us wont be around for that. Im coming at you as a brother in christ, I love you for being the devils advocate, but I feel in my own personal way, by reading your post, you come off kinda strong. My own personal opinion, Love in Christ Joseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Wrong Job. First of all if you don't KNOW the chip will be the mark Christians have no business saying it will be the mark. You rambled about a lot of things, none of which make sense. Those left behind will not be left behind because of ignorance. I don't know of 1 person that has not heard of Jesus and does not know of Jesus. I know a lot who reject Jesus. Right after the rapture most folks will know and they won't need a website.The only job the Church has that I know is to spread the gospel.Nothing negative about my post. I state facts, none of which you addressed in your attack on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is funny though, it didn't take long to wake up and blow your top over a harmless article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Joe has a way of just making you want to reach out and hug him, don't he.What a guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 LOL! Quit yer whinnin' folks. I stated the truth, you can't handle the truth! The truth is as I stated it and all the rebuttels to those facts speak for themselves. Posting about the mark is so far off base and so far out of step with prophecy that it ain't even funny. Let's take it a step at the time.What's next? Probably World War III and with that nobody is going to give a rat's toenail about some chip! Think about that!(Edited by Joe Grossinger at 2:28 pm on April 9, 2002) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xan Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Exactly, Joe! No one is going to care about chips or beast marks during or immediately after a world war. How easy it will be to get the world to accept peace at any cost when they are not thinking about anything except war and peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Yup Xan, we see eye to eye on this issue. You also mentioned a key item. People will desire peace. Nobody desires peace right now. Jews want to kill Palestinians, Palestinans hire children to bomb Jews. Americans are attacking Moslems in Afghanistan and keep threatening Saddam. Saddam threatens everyone. Indians and Pakistanis are toe to nuclear-tipped toe. Ditto for China and Taiwan. Africa is on fire and those not being killed by bullets and hunger die of AIDS. Who cares about a chip when bullets and bombs are flying all over the place? We are some time away from the rapture and the tribulation. First things first. A nice bloody war. THEN, when most of the world's industry is destroyed, ships sunk, people dead, we are expected to believe that some nutcase is going to come along and install a world-wide tracking system and what not. Yea. Right. They will be lucky to find enough ink for tattoos and some folks will just have to settle for scars. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
