R E A D I N G, England -- When Kevin Warwick enters his office
building on the campus of Reading University, strange things happen. Lights turn on. Doors
open. The building says, "Hello Professor Warwick." The structure knows Warwick
because of the electrical fuse-sized "smart card" implanted in his left arm. In
Britain, he's been dubbed "The Cyborg Man," the first person known to have a
microchip implanted in his body for communication with outside machines.
"Many scientists have suggested the possibility of humans and
silicon chips coming together, but as yet, nobody has really done it," Warwick says.
"This is really the first step, establishing the communication link from computer to
human -- inside the human body."
On Aug. 24 Warwick, a cybernetics professor, had doctors surgically
implant the 3mm-wide, 23mm-long chip above his elbow for a 10-day trial. It allows
cyber-communication between the living and the inanimate.
See Me, Feel Me...
As Warwick heads down the main hall, lights turn on. When he turns
to the right, an office door unbolts and opens. Each step is clocked and recorded. The
building knows who he is, where he is, and what he expects to happen. Warwick
predicts chip implants will one day replace time cards, criminal tracking devices, even
credit cards.
Capable of carrying huge amounts of data(1),
they may, he says, one day be used to identify individuals by Social
Security numbers(2), blood type, even their banking information. "There are
possibilities on the financial side but also for helping people with disabilities."
Warwick says public buildings like airports, hospitals, and community centers could be
made "implant friendly" to help the physically handicapped with easier access.
The next stage of the research, he says, will be linking the chip to elements within the
body with the ultimate hope of finding a way for paraplegics to regain control of their
limbs.
Warwick predicts within five years we may see
homes programmed(3) to know their owners. Smart sensors could trigger automation
systems, turning on lights and heaters, switching on ovens, anything from recording
television programs to chilling the wine. Cars could be designed to operate without keys
and only start up with authorized users.
Some Pain, Ethical Questions
Warwick was warned by his doctor that the experiment could be risky.
No one knows yet how the body will respond to this type of invasion. He was told the chip could blow up in his arm(4), or break up and begin
floating around his body. But in the initial test, Warwick says happily, he only suffered
the discomforts of soreness and bruising.
Warwick is not blind to the ethical questions of this technology.
Implants ostensibly designed to clock workers in and out might be misused to monitor where people are at all times(5) and who they are meeting. Governments could move to use implants instead of I.D. cards(6) and
passports, but what would stop them from using this new science to invade privacy?
The experiment already has had some unexpected and disturbing results.
Asked if he felt he was part-man, part machine, Warwick said, "What I actually
feel is not as though the machine is part of me or that I am part of the machine but we
are linked, we are connected by a physical link."
Warwick says he was prepared to watch for the physical changes during the experiment
but not the mental changes.
I Feel Strange, Now
"I feel mentally different. When I am in the building I feel much more closely
connected with the computer. I am not a separate thing. I am a scientist, so that is
strange for me, but that's how I feel. It changed what I feel like mentally which I hadn't
expected and which is very strange and a bit scary."
As scary -- or liberating -- as the new technology may be, Professor Warwick has
opened a door to the future. Cyborg technology has arrived. It may be only a matter of
time before we have to ask ourselves if we are willing to join(7)
this new frontier.---end (Note: numbers were

AMF Notes
Sons and Daughters of God, all the concerns about taking the
mark of the beast are written in the above news release.
1.) "Capable of carrying huge amounts of data."
2.) "One day be used to identify individuals by Social Security numbers."
3.) "Within five years we may see homes programmed."
4.) "The chip could blow up in his arm."
5.) "Monitor where people are at all times."
6.) "Governments could move to use implants instead of I.D. cards."
7.) "We have to ask ourselves if we are willing to join."
The small "smart card" looks like a small medicine capsule just larger than a
grain of rice. It has been used now for nearly five years as an experiment to
identify animals and their owners. If you do not believe this, call around to one of your
local vets and ask them if they do the chip ID implant, how much it will cost, is it safe,
and who all has the equipment to scan your pet should it come up lost or stolen. Ask
them how long this system has been out.
We know that the antichrist will cause the mark (seal) of the
beast to be issued out of Jerusalem to prohibit any Christian from buying and selling
because they will not come under his regime.
As pointed out by others, the mark of the beast IS NOT 666.
Those who promote this are part of the conspiracy to deceive the world. That
is the numerical number that those who have wisdom can calculate from the name and mark
(symbol) of the beast.
We also know that the word *beast* in prophecy is symbolic of a
nation or kingdom (Dan 7:23). Each has a name and a symbol as its national mark (seal).
Thus the mark of the beast is a name or symbol that represents a nation or kingdom.
The beast is a nation or kingdom ruled by the man of sin whom we call the antichrist.
In the days of Jesus this was the High Priest sitting in the Temple as God and
passing judgment on who would live and who would die (Crucifixion). Whoever this
antichrist is he will be Jewish and in control of Jerusalem and the Temple mount.
Two present organizations that hate Jesus and the Christian Gospel of New Covenant
replacement theology, are the *Temple Institute* under Chaim Richman and the Temple Mount
Faithful under Gershon Salomon. These could very well usher in the antichrist from
among the right-wing militant Talmudic Pharisee sects in Israel.
The antichrist system controlled out of Jerusalem will have control
over commerce and banking and this extends outward to control over food, medicine,
education, employment, shelter, and utilities. As soon as the mark of the beast is
issued and the world has all fallen into this system of operation, the third seal is
opened (Rev 6:6), the first trumpet sounds (Rev. 8:7), and the first vial is poured out
(Rev. 16:2). Those who would not take a stand with the Believers of Jesus Messiah
will be struck with the awesome realization that they are now *SUDDENLY* damned and they
did not get to use the mark of the beast but for a short few months and now God is
wrecking the commerce of the world and making the mark of no use through the judgments
within the seals, trumpets, and vials.
Through these judgments the saints are protected. BUT THOSE
WHO RECEIVED THE MARK OF THE NEW JERUSALEM KINGDOM ARE DAMNED! Is that not like the
devil to promote something like it will have long-lasting good implications but sin brings
judgment speedily? Many devout and good Jews and even Christian Gentiles will be deceived.
Did not the serpent promise Eve she would not die but instead she would become a
goddess and have eternal life anyway? Did not her judgment come the same day she
took the fruit into her hand and put it to her head so she could eat and thereby took the
damnable mark of sin?
I am here going to quote two ancient texts found in the Ante Nicene
Fathers. The first is from Hippolytus (Vol 5, page 249):
And I have an opinion as to this number,
though I do not know the matter for certain; for many names have been found in this number
when it is expressed in writing. Still we say that perhaps the scription of this same seal
will give us *I DENY.*
Now footnote number #3 to *I DENY* shows us the Greek spelling of *I
DENY* that would equal 666. I would not say that these very words constitute the mark of
the beast, but I do believe that a person must deny Jesus Messiah in order to take
it. So, in the denial and in the mark a person is double sealed to be a child of
hell, first the denial and then taking the mark.
Should for any reason a person be bodily restrained and *forced* to
take the mark against their will and yet they refuse to deny Jesus Messiah, I do not
believe they will be damned. It would be the same as a rape in the eyes of God.
Babies, the sick and infirmed not in their right mind, the elderly, and those
mentally handicapped, branded or sealed somehow with the mark of the beast, cannot be held
guilty of denying Jesus Messiah. In that day the Lord Jesus would be the judge.
But I can say without equivocation or reservation, that any other
person with the mark of the beast would need to prove they were forced to take the mark in
a religious rape incident, by emptying themselves of all they possess to feed and
clothe the Saints, to shelter them when pursued and hunted by antichrist, to visit those
put in prison for resisting the antichrist system, and for caring for the injured, sick,
and persecuted endtime Believers in Jesus Messiah. If they do not do all of these,
then they are deceivers and shall have their part in the Lake of Fire with the antichrist,
the false prophet, and all who received the mark *symbol* of the beast system. The
day will surely come as it was in the early Church persecutions, when the true Christians
will need to personally know them that dwell and labor among them that they are legitimate
Believers in Jesus Messiah.
The next quote comes Hippolytus as well found in the Ante Nicene
Fathers Vol 5 page 247:
"For in every respect that deceiver
seeks to make himself appear like the son of God. Christ is a lion, and Antichrist
is a lion. Christ is King of things celestial and terrestrial, and Antichrist
will be king upon earth. The Saviour was manifested as a lamb; and he, too, will
appear as a lamb, while he is a wolf within. The Saviour was circumcised, and he in
like manner will appear in circumcision. The Saviour sent the apostles unto all
nations, and he in like manner will send false apostles. Christ gathered the
dispersed sheep, and he in like manner will gather together the dispersed people of the
Hebrews. Christ gave to those who believed on Him the honorable and life-giving
cross, and he in like manner will give his own sign. Christ appeared in the form of
man, and he in like manner will come forth in the form of man. Christ arose from
among the Hebrews, and he will spring from among the Jews. Christ displayed His
flesh like a temple, and raised it up on the third day; and he too will raise up
again the temple of stone in Jerusalem. All these deceits fabricated by him will
become quite intelligible to those who listen to us attentively, from what shall be set
forth next in order."
It is time for Apostolic preachers to quit preaching the
pie-in-the-sky secret snatch and start preaching the truth about who the real antichrist
are and the Church going through the tribulation. If done, souls will come screaming
out of their seats to an altar to seek God and live holy before it is to late.
Consider that the news report says the small chip can explode.
If they can track you with it, do not like where you are at, get a report you are
helping Christians, ...bang you are dead! Especially since these micro-chips can
contain a small amount of poison metal or chemical that kills you in seconds. They
can locate you by your social security number and on a computer somewhere punch in the
kill command, it goes up to a satellite and down comes the death beam upon the earth.
Where ever the capsule is that has that ID it explodes. This is possible through use
of the star wars global positioning satellites already in space.
I would urge all Christians of the world: DO NOT BELIEVE
anything that happens in Israel or Jerusalem that is claimed to be *CONTACT* with God.
There is absolutely no Scripture that tells us there will be an endtime REVIVAL in
Israel or Jerusalem where *CONTACT* is made via a rebuilt temple, revived animal
sacrifices, a new Rabbinical priesthood, or during the sacrifice of a red heifer. DO
NOT BELIEVE any alleged miracles performed such as calling fire down from heaven,
healings, or the ability to make humanoid creatures *golems* speak. DO NOT worship
anything set up on Mount Moriah. DO NOT go back to Law-keeping as a means to
allegedly get a closer walk with God or to obtain some greater salvation through works.
If you have fulfilled Acts 2:38 by grace through faith, then you are saved and you
are not under the Law, the Temple, or a Pharisee Talmudic priesthood; and you are
not redeemed with the blood of animals (calves, heifers). If any man or woman tries
to be saved by Law Keeping they have fallen from Grace and are severed from Jesus Messiah.
Yes, many will be deceived because they have set their hearts to be
deceived, but the ELECT will not be deceived. May the Lord Jesus give you
understanding.
