Dear readers,

I was thinking about eschatology today, particularly how things might play out regarding Israel.  I believe the mark of the beast will be offered in the context of an economic collapse.  But I asked the Lord, how will Israel respond to this “mark of the beast’, surely your people wont take it?  I could be wrong but what I believe God said is that they wont have to.  They wont have to because the “peace agreement” the AC makes with them will exempt them from having to take it.  The AC will say something like “I understand you people are God fearing and so I will exempt you from having to take this mark, but in exchange you have to let me control the temple mount”.  Eventually the AC will break his own agreement and attempt to persecute Israel anyway.  At this point only Messiah himself will be able to protect Israel.
