Rev. 13:16, 17<\/a>)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nThe mark of the beast! During the Tribulation period a powerful and evil ruler will arise, ordering all people to receive a mark in their forehead or in their right hand. Those who refuse will suffer the wrath of the beast. Those who submit will suffer the wrath of God. Those who refuse will reign with Christ in His millennial glory. Those who submit will be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.<\/p>\n
As we read this, we can feel quite detached from it all, knowing that it belongs to the future, and believing that the Church will be raptured home to heaven in the meantime. And yet there is a sense in which the mark of the beast is with us now. There are times in life when we are forced to choose between loyalty to God and bowing to a system that is opposed to God.<\/p>\n
There are times when, in order to gain employment, for instance, we are asked to accept conditions that are clearly contrary to divine principles. It is easy to rationalize at such times. Unless we can work, we can\u2019t buy groceries. And unless we can get food, we can\u2019t survive. And we have to live, don\u2019t we? Under this false excuse, we agree to the demands and, in effect, take the mark of the beast.<\/p>\n
Whatever threatens our food supply or our continued existence throws us into panic, and we are tempted to sacrifice almost anything to avert that threat. The same arguments that men will use to justify worshiping the image in the Tribulation period are the arguments that present themselves to us today when we must choose between God\u2019s truth and our own lives.<\/p>\n
The idea that we must live is false. What we must do is obey God and love not our lives unto death.<\/p>\n
F. W. Grant wrote, \u201cOn the coin for which we sell the truth, there is at all times, faint as it may be, the image of Antichrist.\u201d So the question is not, \u201cWould I refuse to take the mark of the beast if I were living in the Tribulation?\u201d but rather \u201cDo I refuse to sell the truth now?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00bbUnd es bringt alle dahin, die Kleinen und die Gro\u00dfen, und die Reichen und die\u00a0Armen, und die Freien und die Sklaven, dass man ihnen ein Malzeichen\u00a0an ihre\u00a0rechte Hand oder an ihre Stirn gibt; und dass niemand kaufen\u00a0oder verkaufen\u00a0kann, als nur der, welcher das Malzeichen hat, den Namen des Tieres oder die\u00a0Zahl seines Namens.\u00ab\u00a0Offenbarung 13,16.17<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nDas Malzeichen des Tieres! In der Zeit der gro\u00dfen Tr\u00fcbsal wird ein m\u00e4chtiger\u00a0und b\u00f6ser Herrscher aufstehen, der befiehlt, dass alle Menschen ein Zeichen auf\u00a0ihre Stirn oder an ihre rechte Hand bekommen m\u00fcssen. Diejenigen,\u00a0die sich dann\u00a0weigern, werden den Zorn des Tieres zu sp\u00fcren bekommen.\u00a0Und die, die sich f\u00fcgen,\u00a0werden den Zorn Gottes zu erleiden haben. Die, die sich weigern, werden mit Christus\u00a0zusammen im Tausendj\u00e4hrigen Reich regieren. Die, die sich f\u00fcgen, werden mit\u00a0Feuer und Schwefel\u00a0gequ\u00e4lt werden vor den heiligen Engeln und vor dem Lamm.<\/p>\n
Wenn wir das lesen, scheint uns alles vielleicht weit entfernt; wir wissen,\u00a0dass das\u00a0erst in ferner Zukunft geschehen wird, und wir glauben, dass die Gemeinde bis dahin\u00a0schon l\u00e4ngst in den Himmel entr\u00fcckt worden ist. Und doch ist das Zeichen des\u00a0Tieres in einem bestimmten Sinn schon heute\u00a0bei uns zu finden. Es gibt Zeiten im\u00a0Leben, wo wir gezwungen sind, uns zu entscheiden zwischen der Treue zu Gott und\u00a0der Verbeugung vor einem System, das sich dem Herrn entgegenstellt.<\/p>\n
Es gibt beispielsweise Zeiten, in denen wir dringend eine Arbeitsstelle suchen und\u00a0bei der Bewerbung gebeten werden, Bedingungen zu akzeptieren,\u00a0die in klarem Gegensatz\u00a0zu g\u00f6ttlichen Grunds\u00e4tzen stehen. In solchen Zeiten f\u00e4llt uns das Argumentieren\u00a0nicht schwer: Wenn wir keine Arbeit haben, k\u00f6nnen wir keine Lebensmittel\u00a0kaufen. Und wenn wir nichts zu essen bekommen, k\u00f6nnen wir nicht \u00fcberleben. Und\u00a0wir m\u00fcssen doch schlie\u00dflich\u00a0leben, oder? Mit diesen falschen Entschuldigungen willigen\u00a0wir in die Forderungen ein, und so erhalten wir tats\u00e4chlich das Zeichen des\u00a0Tieres.<\/p>\n
Alles, was unsere Lebensmittelversorgung oder die Fortdauer unserer Existenz\u00a0bedroht,\u00a0l\u00e4sst uns panisch reagieren, und dann sind wir versucht, fast alles zu opfern, nur\u00a0um diese Bedrohung abzuwenden. Die Argumente, die Menschen sp\u00e4ter einmal in\u00a0der Zeit der gro\u00dfen Tr\u00fcbsal benutzen werden, um zu rechtfertigen, dass sie das Bild\u00a0angebetet haben, sind genau dieselben
\nwie die, die sich uns heute anbieten, wenn wir\u00a0uns zwischen Gottes Wahrheit und unserem eigenen Leben entscheiden m\u00fcssen.<\/p>\n
Die Vorstellung, dass wir unter allen Umst\u00e4nden leben m\u00fcssen, ist falsch. Wir m\u00fcssen\u00a0vielmehr Gott gehorchen und nicht unser eigenes Leben bis zum Tod lieben.<\/p>\n
