The Bible must be allowed to interpret itself and it does not speak of
transponders or Credit Cards, or Telephones, but it does speak in terms of
allegiances and covenants. So if we were to stay within true biblical
guidlines we find.....
Ezek 9:4 And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city,
through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men
that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst
thereof.
Rev 22:3-4 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of
the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: And they shall
see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
Both these are representing a sign of allegiance and have nothing to do with
a physical marking or implant. For an excellent study of the Germatria of
666 Kenneth Gentry has an excellent piece of work at
http://www.reformed.org/eschaton/beast.html
This piece alone can dispel all the speculation of extra Biblical theories
that abound!
P.S. Rushdoony and Gentry are very close associates. You will recall that
our good Brother David Bernard qoutes from Rushdoony quite often.
