Rene,
Would I be correct to assume that you may have been
inferring, “X marks the spot”, in your recent letter, "The
X Generation and the Mark of the Beast"?
Deuteronomy 32:5 They have corrupted
themselves, their spot is not the spot of
his children: they are a perverse and crooked
generation.
The spot sets
them apart as children of another father (John 8:44)
Jude 12 These are spots in your
feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding
themselves without fear: clouds they are without
water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit
withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the
roots;
13 Raging waves of the sea,
foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is
reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
The spot
indicates death & doom
Jeremiah 13:23 Can the
Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then
may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.
If the leopard
cannot change a spot, what about these children of another
father, can they?
Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw
was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet
of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the
dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great
authority.
It ties in the
spot of the leopard to the 1st beast, the
antichrist, whose mark the 2nd beast requires
everyone to receive.
So does the spot
relate to the mark? What was the mark of Cain?
The church does
not take the mark & the church has no spot:
Ephesians 5:27 That he might present it
to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle,
or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without
blemish.
no spot
Song of Solomon 4:7 Thou art all fair,
my love; there is no spot in thee.
The Shulamite, a prophetic
picture of the bride of Christ, with no spot
Song of Solomon 2:10 My beloved spake, and said
unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.
She is to rise
up and “come away” with her beloved
She won’t be
here for the mark, yet there will also be those who go
through the tribulation, who do not take the mark, and are
killed because of it
So, does “X mark
the spot”, maybe so & maybe generation X is the
generation that will take the mark

not original stuff here, as these things have been said
many others before me)
