Three-And-One-Half Years Into The Tribulation

Three-and-one-half years into the Tribulation, the man Revelation calls the Beast will demand everyone swear allegiance to him. Since everyone is identified and linked to the system, refusal will mean being cut off from participating in society.

A person won’t be able to buy or sell anything. We, therefore, expect a global push towards greater-and-greater biometric commerce.

We see it everywhere. I’ll summarize a few of the articles I consulted.

#1 France has a health card called Carte Vitale, which allows those registered in the country’s health system to get reimbursements for medical costs. The new legislation will add biometrics to it. The card will have a chip that contains the physical characteristics of the insured, such as their fingerprints, to enable identity verification.

#2 School board officials in Marion County, West Virginia, have approved piloting a facial recognition security system. Live facial recognition technology is supposed to help with “threat detection” and “visitor management” in schools.

#3 Microsoft has announced a five-year partnership with the National Australia Bank (NAB) to develop and invest in NAB’s and Bank of New Zealand’s multi-cloud technology. The two organizations are looking into ways of identifying customers

using facial recognition.

#4 The UK is working on facial recognition technology for border screening, under a broader effort dubbed “Permission to Travel.”

The idea is to have contactless border screening. Once the technology is implemented, people traveling to the UK,

including those from EU countries, will be required to upload a selfie on the Home Office’s website. On arrival at a border checkpoint, their face will be scanned for identity verification.

The technology eliminates the need to interact with a border

officer.

It is no longer far-fetched to envision a global, digital system by which everyone in the world transacts all of their business.

It is only a matter of when it will be implemented.

It will affect everything you purchase. If governments are successful in their efforts to eliminate cash, their citizens will be subject to their complete control. What you eat, where you live, and where you can or cannot go, will all be controlled by the government.

One reporter envisioned the following scenario. “It’s 2027. The Health Ministry locks your phone because you criticized a state policy in a private call. Your thermostat is also locked at 78 degrees. An email arrives indicating Travel Permission is denied to visit your dying mom.”

Biometric technologies are not the Mark of the Beast. But they are, quite obviously, setting the stage.
