Bob Hunt gives a quick review of part one and then jumps right into a discussion of the difficulties Christians will have during the time when the 'Mark of the Beast' is foisted upon the world. Bob then discusses the statement that Pre-tribulation rapture brothers and sisters make saying, “We won’t be here during all of these mandates.” Bob relates several verses from Revelation and offeres the conclusion that the Pre-Wrath rapture makes much more sense, even in this limited view.
Bob then examines the Mark in light of the Name and the Number of the Beast, first with a detialed look at what it means to have the Name of the Beast. A parallel is found in Revelation 22:4, where believers are found to have Jesus' Name on their foreheads. It is interesting that all of us will have one name or another, but not both.
Lastly, what is this Number of the Beast? Little is known or taught regarding this, but much speculation has been made. Is it a puzzle for us to figure out who this person is, or something else? What we do know is that it is the number of man. Man has reached the pinnacle of all that is evil and has, as a world, rejected God and worships the Beast and Satan himself.
In conclusion, it will take much wisdom and understanding to survive these perilous times. The consequences are not merely severe: the consequences are eternal.
