The Beast out of the Earth

Rev13:16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.

18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[e] That number is 666

Figurative speech and symbolic references regarding the spiritual is a religious translation fail. Although the Bible is to be taken literally, decerning with carnal eyes leaves the intended context carnal. Bad position to be in when the real battle at hand is spiritual. Bible speaks of it many times

There is nothing symbolic about the scriptures that Sheldon used. The bible text is clear, definitive, and NOT difficult for the reader to understand.

Sheldon claims that people are NOW being FORCED to receive a mark on their right hand or forehead. If this is happening right now, provide the evidence that is.

Trying to claim as symbolic text that is literal is dangerous and deceptive.

Legalism much? You as well miss the mark. The Holy Spirit did not inspire your reply. Ill leave it at that.

Now your are judging me not even knowing me or my relationship with Jesus. This proves you are on dangerous ground.
