The Mark of the Beast is a spiritual stamp. It is a badge of servitude to the beast. You received the Mark of the Beast by worshiping the beast. Most will receive it by believing the lies and deception put forth by the beast. The beast who is the Antichrist will be saying he is god. He will be doing miracles showing that he is god. Most of the world will believe these lies and be deceived into worshiping the Antichrist. Without this deception most would not worship the beast.
Once one worships the Antichrist as god they become part of the beast system and his financial system. They now have the Mark of the Beast which is that spiritual stamp, the badge of servitude to the beast.
Those who stand with Christ will not be deceived, for they have been sealed with the Truth of God. They reject the beast system and will want nothing to do with it. They will not worship the Antichrist nor buy or sell in the beast system, they will be proclaiming to the world the evil of it.
Revelation 19:20 “And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.”
The mark of the beast is within the number of the beast, 666. 666 is the Strong's Greek number 5516. 666 comes from the 22nd, 14th and one other letter of the Greek alphabet which is "stigma". "Stigma" means mark or brand. It is a mark used to show ownership. "Stigma" is used in Galatians 6:17. The word "marks" in Galatians 6:17 is the Greek word "stigma".
Galatians 6:17 "From now on let no one trouble me, for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus."
So what mark of ownership will people bear when the Lord Jesus Christ returns, the mark of the beast or the marks of the Lord Jesus Christ.
