(70) Have you already taken the mark of the beast? Shane Vaughn Teaches - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-dZeP43FS0 Transcript: (00:01) good evening this is Shane vongh with first Harvest Ministries in Waveland Mississippi um I wanted to talk to you about a statement that I made on Facebook today and it has garnered some interest and so I felt like that we should discuss this this evening here on my back porch I just wanted to talk face to face with the saints of God as you uh expressed an interest in a statement that was made about the mark of the beast the statement that I made was the entire church world is busy watching for the coming mark of the beast while in (00:38) fact failing to realize that they've already taken it now that is quite a statement and uh many people uh don't understand why I made that but I believe you will if you will give me about five minutes of your time this evening what is a mark what is a mark well well if I give you a check in the olden days they would always say put your mark on this check and the Mark was your signature the signature was your authority to release funds on that check what is a king's Mark a king's Mark is his signate ring his authority the mark of the (01:28) beast is the authority of the Beast now there is another group of people in the word of God especially in the Book of Revelation and they are called the Overcomers and it is told to the angels to Mark these people in their forehead sadly many people read the book of Revelations from a text rather than a spiritual understanding you must be very careful when you journey into this book to not bring your carnal mind with you this book was written for a certain group of people the Overcomers the Apostle John said he that hath an ear (02:11) let him hear what the spirit is saying because if you don't you'll cause this book to say all kinds of things when we first open the primordial verses of the Book of Revelation we see several symbols immediately we see the Lamb on Mount Zion we know that's not a real lamb that's yua we see another 144,000 Lambs there with him we know that's not Lambs that is the Overcomers then we see h a golden Candlestick of seven lampstands we know that that is not a lampstand it is seven churches or church ages then we see Seven Stars we know (02:52) that that is not stars but rather that is the seven pastors or angels of those churches and and so as we journey into this book when we get to the mark of the beast Satan has done a prolific job an excellent job of bringing us into an illusion of looking for this coming mark of the beast on our forehead and in our hands what does the hand symbolize it symbolizes our works which is our actions what does the forehead symbolize it symbolizes our mind and our thoughts now since the beginning In the Garden of Eden Eve was given the mark of this (03:41) Beast she was given a choice to obey Yahweh and to walk in obedience to his Commandments she chose not to do that so therefore she was given a mark of rebellion the number six is an interesting number it is the number of man and man is the enemy of Yahweh the Bible says while we were yet sinners we were the enemies of God why are we the enemies because we're rebellious to his Commandments Eve became an enemy in her Rebellion Adam became an enemy in partaking of her Rebellion therefore there became a division between them and (04:24) Yahweh and therefore the need for blood sacrifices began and then it ended did on Calvary but it was there on the sixth day that man was created therefore six is the number of man now the next place that we see the number six is when it comes to the enemy of God's people Goliath we know that he had six fingers and six toes he defied God he defied the people of God he was the enemy of God and he's represented by six fingers and six toes now we go a few books later to the image of Nebuchadnezzar he also was stuck on (05:13) himself the pride of life he was a prideful man he built a statue of himself and called on God's people to bow down to this false god everyone did it except for the Overcomer shad mesach and Abednego and yet if you will study that statue you will find the measurements to be quite interesting the measurements of the statue was 60 by six so with Goliath we have six to the first power but when we get to Nebuchadnezzar we have 60 by six so now we have 66 but when we come to the culmination of the pride of man when we come to the (06:00) culmination of the rebellion of man we come to the finality of six we bring six to the highest power six which is rebellion in our thinking towards Yahweh and his Commandments and then in our works and our action six which is rebellion this is why the Overcomers carry the mark of seven they are seventh day Sabbath Keepers they are seven everything is obedient to the Commandments that's why the Overcomers it is said of them that they kept the faith of yua that's their minds faith is up here they kept the faith a pure (06:44) unadulterated faith and then in their hands their Works they were obedient in their keeping of The Commandments because the Overcomers it is said that these are they that kept the faith of Christ and the Commandments of Yahweh so brothers and sisters here we have a group of people that have seven imp planted into their thinking they've surrendered their thinking to the Commandments of God but not only their thinking but their works right along with it these are a people stamped by a different pedigree they're obedient they (07:19) obey but there is another group of people who walk in rebellion and that's why Paul tells us and cautions us to stop looking forward to the an Antichrist and to recognize that the spirit or the essence or the mind of the Antichrist is already here oh yes it will culminate eventually in a man like it did Hitler at the end of all things and yes that Mark will culminate uh at the end of the ages but it is already here but Satan has you so busy looking forward to a coming mark that you don't realize that you've already accepted the (08:01) mark of rebellion how do we know this because the scriptures tell us that there is a people that is bound in the religious system of Babylon they like to call themselves Christians but they are romanized they have submitted to the laws of Rome rather than the laws of Yahweh they are bound by the by the Rebellion against the word of God they don't realize it they're going to Church they're doing what Rome has told them to do but they are doing it in Rebellion to God these are people that have already accepted the (08:41) authority of Rome or the authority of the Beast don't you understand that there is going to be an antichrist but the Antichrist is not the Beast no the Beast is a religious political system that will give Authority to the Antichrist they will give him the armies that he needs they will give him the church that he needs to rule from and this is the Church of Rome and this is the revived Roman Empire and the political system and the religious system they're coming together now and yes they're going to give power (09:19) to the Antichrist but brothers and sisters it is that same system that will give the Antichrist his power that many of you are submitted to to right now bearing their Mark going to church when they tell you uh keeping their holidays going by their system but I call everyone around the world today to forsake the 666 forsake rebellion and run quickly out of the confines of Babylon rid yourself of the blankets of her bed Shake Yourself self of whoredoms and adultery with her and run back to Jerusalem run unto the Commandments of (10:07) God there are people rising up around the world we're hearing the chauff far as it sounds in our spirit I call you today mark yourself with the mark of obedience and rid yourself of the Authority or the mark of Rome God bless you today
