Does National Health Care Usher in the Mark of the Beast?

Is a microchip implant the “Mark of the Beast”

OBAMACARE (Original Bill) Required RFID CHIP IMPLANT. Did you Know? Should you care? What are the implications?

Background Information

The “Chip”

  Biochip technology was originally developed in 1983 for monitoring fisheries. Today’s, biochip implant is basically a small (micro) computer chip, inserted under the skin, for identification purposes. The biochip implant system consists of two components; a transponder and a reader or scanner. Latest technology permits tracking and even control of brain activity and other bodily functions.

How the technology is being (or is planned to be) used (from various web sources) 

(* Note the DATE on some of these press releases and imagine how far we have come since then!)

In Psychology Today, April 1970, James McConnell, professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, published an article 'Criminals Can Be Brainwashed': '...the day has come when it should be possible to achieve a very rapid and highly effective type of positive brainwashing that would allow us to make dramatic changes in a person's behaviour and personality... We should reshape our society so that we all would be trained from birth to want to do what society wants us to do. We have the techniques now to do it...'.

In the 20-26th March 1995 edition of Defense News, Pat Cooper penned 'Naval Research Lab Attempts To Meld Neurons and Chips: Studies May Produce Army of "Zombies"'. In this he quotes William Tolles, the [then] recently retired associate director of research at the Naval Research Lab, 'Future battles could be waged with genetically engineered organisms, such as rodents, whose minds are controlled by computer chips engineered with living brain cells....

2001: "We appear to be edging towards an era of 'mind control' - a time when human brains might be manipulated routinely by highly sophisticated technology."

2002: A Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) military Brain Machine Interface article shows that research has continued apace.

2003: The Defense Intelligence Agency state: 'It is possible that future mechanical and computer chip implants in human beings could stimulate new directions in anthropology and sociology.

2007: In the UK an RFID chip sewn into school clothing "used to monitor pupils' movements and register their arrival in class on the teacher's computer. Supply teachers can also be alerted if a student is likely to misbehave." The Times, Sat October 20th.

2008: "Prisoners to be chipped like dogs." "We track cars so why not people," Ken Jones, president of the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO). The Independent, UK, Sun January 13th. Note that the GPS mentioned is not possible with current RFID but is possible with a mobile phone and an implant acting together as per other previous medical projects. New Zealand Herald reports on this too.

At Imperial College London, there is an Oracle backed project to provide implanted sensors that can monitor the body's critical faculties and relay them via the patient's mobile to their doctor.

Professor Robert Langer of MIT, developed the concept of an implantable drug delivery system after watching a public television documentary on computers. The small chip, which is implanted below the waist and under the skin, can release the correct amount of medicine into the body at precise times.

According to a recent survey, one in four Germans is enthusiastic about the idea of having a chip implanted as long as there are tangible benefits involved. Those benefits don’t even have to be of the life-and-death nature; some said they would implant a chip simply to make a shopping experience more enjoyable.

WALTHAM, Mass – February 16, 2012 – MicroCHIPS, Inc., a developer of implantable drug delivery devices and biosensors, announces today the results of the first successful human clinical trial with an implantable, wirelessly controlled and programmable microchip-based drug delivery device.

The Bible

The MARK of the beast is mentioned eight times in the book of Revelation: For brevity I will list the references- you look them up yourself if you are interested. These verses represent most of what we know about “the mark of the beast”.

    Revelation 13:16-18    Revelation 14:9    Revelation 14:11     Revelation 15:2       Revelation 16:2     Revelation 19:20    Revelation 20:4  

It is not my intent to get “down in the weeds” about whether the Microchip IS THE MARK, or whether it will simply be the technology utilized to control the “buying and selling” and the actual “mark is an externally visible tattoo or something similar.  A little research on the web will reveal that a great deal has already been written on this subject.  Research, and pray, and make up your mind.  Suffice it to say that the road to servitude is likely to be gradual-incremental- and will likely be composed of many small steps.  When people are under sufficient pressure, they will make decisions that will take them down the path of least resistance.

When the Social Security program was enacted in 1935, the public was skeptical. Many were reluctant (or refused) to be “numbered”.  Now, it is extremely rare to find a person in America who does not accept the social security identification as completely normal and acceptable.  A CNN poll in 1999 found that 47% of those surveyed would have no problem accepting a microchip implant, as opposed to 53% who would NOT want the procedure done.

Although, as a Christian, I believe that God will reveal His will to His children at the right time, I also believe that we should engage in careful bible study to diligently SEEK the truth of God through discernment.  Any careful Bible study should never force a conclusion or stretch scripture to conform to some preconceived outcome. Study the WORD of God, pray that the Spirit of Truth will guide your understanding, and be prepared to accept alternative “conclusions” that, while supported by scripture, do not conform to something you have already been taught.

It seems clear that, in the end, all people on earth will be given a choice to follow Anti-Christ or not. The problem, as I see it, is that it is HARDER to make the distinction between “right and wrong” or “good and evil” when one is playing in the devils playpen, so to speak.   It will be much more difficult (perhaps impossible) for people,  once accustomed to the convenience and security of the implantable chip, to make a choice NOT to maintain their lifestyle choices once the technology becomes connected to a CHOICE to serve Anti-Christ.  Imagine being given this choice:  Continue being able to buy life-giving meds for grandma, or your sick child, and to buy groceries, and fix that painful tooth ache, etc. by simply declaring an oath to support the world leader.  In that oath, you agree NOT to be obedient to any other person.  In return, you may live in your home, keep your job, buy the necessities for your family, maybe even take that well-deserved vacation.  Is that a big stretch?  Because that is “human nature” you would foolishly be courting (eternal) disaster to believe that you are somehow not affected or influenced by natural laws, or by erroneously pretending that you are a spiritual giant, unaffected by natural instincts.

Tithing, Fasting, and Sexual Abstinence

These are three areas where our carnal flesh is most often tempted. In truth, we NEED (in some degree) money, food, and sex. Yet, God challenges us, exhorts us, commands us, to practice self-denial with respect to those areas of our “natural” life.  Reality check…How are you doing with those simple acts of self-denial?  Like working out in the gym to build strong muscles, our spiritual work-out (denying the flesh) trains us to be more spiritually focused and spiritually strong.  It is the height of self-deception to imagine that we could resist the incredible temptation to deny Jesus and declare allegiance to some worldly king if that is the ONLY thing standing between our peace and security and/or then end of actual, physical suffering of ourselves or our close family and friends.  Now, what about the law?

OBAMA CARE (AS ORIGINALLY DRAFTED) REQUIRED AN IMPLANT 

CORRECTION: Added 30 APRIL, 2012 - The final Bill as passed DOES NOT contain this requirement, as the language was removed from the former version.  I AM LEAVING this post active, and essentially unchanged, because IT IS IMPORTANT for readers to understand exactly where SOME of our politicians INTEND to take us.  I am GRATEFUL for those who try to hold the line, but I SUSPECT that it will not be long before they will become such a minority that their voices will be silenced.  I apologize that this was published before I completed my research but I DO NOT apologize for ringing the alarm bell. The price of FREEDOM is eternal vigilance.  JAS

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA)   passed the Senate on December 24, 2009 and the House of representatives on March 21, 2010 by a Senate rule known as "Reconciliation" where amendments are passed and the actual bill is then "deemed" passed without a floor vote.  

FROM THE ORIGINAL HOUSE BILL (HR 3200):  Looking at section 2521, Pg. 1001, paragraph 1, we read:

“The Secretary shall establish a national medical device registry (in this subsection referred to as the ‘registry’) to facilitate analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that— ‘‘is or has been used in or on a patient; ‘‘and is— ‘‘a class III device; or ‘‘a class II device that is implantable, life-supporting, or life-sustaining.”

What exactly is a class II device that is implantable? It is the device approved by the FDA in 2004.

Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act:

www.fda.gov/downloads/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuid...

A class II implantable device is an "implantable radio frequency transponder system for patient identification and health information." The purpose of a class II device is to collect data in medical patients such as "claims data, patient survey data, standardized analytic files that allow for the pooling and analysis of data from disparate data environments, electronic health records, and any other data deemed appropriate by the Secretary."

The PPACA also orders the creation of the national medical device registry in section 2521, page 1002 line 5:

“In developing the registry, the secretary shall…”

And the law continues on with a laundry list of items that the secretary must do in the process of creating this registry. In this laundry list of items to do, Line 17, subparagraph B: "validating methods for analyzing patient safety and outcomes data from multiple sources and for linking such data with the information included in the registry as described in subparagraph (A)"

Going back to subparagraph A [right above subparagraph B], it says: “including in the registry, in a manner consistent with subsection (f), appropriate information to identify each device described in paragraph (1) by type, model, and serial number or other unique identifier;”

Don’t be confused by the intentional obfuscation and skillful wording, This law first creates the national device registry and then immediately list all the task the secretary of health and human services will have do in the process of creating this registry.

The very first two items in the list mandates that the secretary first gives a unique identification to each of the items listed in paragraph 1 which is:

    ‘‘a class III device; or ‘‘a class II device that is implantable.”

Then, the very next thing the secretary is to do is to create the process by which “patient safety and outcomes data from multiple sources”, which is electronic medical records, that are linked to these newly and uniquely identified items from paragraph 1 which are the class III and class II implantable devices.

Class III devises are items such as breast implants, pacemakers, heart valves, etc. A Class II device that is implantable is, as you seen from the FDA, an implantable radio frequency transponder, RFID chip. From breast implants, to pacemakers, to RFID chips which one is the only possible one that can used for the stated purpose in section B which is, “for linking such data with the information included in the registry”? As we know from subsection A, the information in the registry is the name of a device. In plain speak, we are in a clear way being told that our electronic medical records are going to be linked to a class II implantable device!

Continuing a few lines down in this same section, section B subsection ii on still on page 1002, the “patient safety and outcomes data from multiple sources”, that is to be linked is clearly spelled out as electronic medical records. It reads:  “link data obtained under clause (i) with information in the registry”. Information in the registry is, as we know from subparagraph A, the name of the device. So what is the data obtained under clause i? Back up a few lines to clause i

It reads: “obtain access to disparate sources of patient safety and outcomes data, including Federal health-related electronic data”. Again, from breast implants, to pacemakers, to RFID chips which one is the only possible one that can used for the stated purpose in section B? That stated purpose is “for linking such data” and the “such data” is electronic medical records.

In case the law wasn’t clear enough on that point, still in the laundry list of things to do a few more lines down on the next page, page 1005

“The Secretary to protect the public health; shall establish procedures to permit linkage of information submitted pursuant to subparagraph (A, remember subparagraph A is the class 2 implantable device reference) with patient safety and outcomes data obtained under paragraph (3, which is electronic medical records); and to permit analyses of linked data;”

Continuing on to page 1007, in the STANDARDS, IMPLEMENTATION CRITERIA, AND CERTIFICATION CRITERIA section, the secretary of health and human services is given full power to intact all mandates from the laundry list of to-do items in the creation process of the registry as well as dictate how the devises listed in the National Medical Device Registry are to be used and implemented.

"The Secretary of the Health Human Services, acting through the head of the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, shall adopt standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria for the electronic exchange and use in certified electronic health records of a unique device identifier for each device described in paragraph 1 (National Medical Device Registry), if such an identifier is required by section 519(f) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360i(f)) for the device."

  

 Page 503, section E Lines 13-17 reads: "encourage, as appropriate, the development and use of clinical registries and the development of clinical effectiveness research data networks from electronic health records, post marketing drug and medical device surveillance efforts". Let me say that again, medical device surveillance efforts!

Now lets look at section 163 of the PPACA, which gives the government a direct electronic access to your bank account which will work in conjunction with an implanted chip.

Page 58 Lines 5 through 15 reads:

(D) enable the real-time (or near real time) determination of an individual’s financial responsibility at the point of service and, to the extent possible, prior to service, including whether the individual is eligible for a specific service with a specific physician at a specific facility, which may include utilization of a machine-readable health plan beneficiary identity detection card; (E) enable, where feasible, near real-time adjudication of claims.

 SUMMARY

What does this mean? It means that the government will give everybody a health ID card that contains a machine readable device (magnetic strip or RFID chip) similar to a credit card. Embedded in this chip or strip is your Health Identification Number. When you visit a medical provider, the medical claims will be processed while you are still in the office. The medical providers will be paid in real time. The portion that you owe will be deducted from your bank account, in real time, according to this law.

As it stands now (still awaiting a final Ruling by the Supreme Court) the amended version of the bill (two bills, actually combined)  is the law of the land. If you break the law, you are a criminal. Would you risk your eternal soul by submitting to the law, if the law required an implant? THE BIGGER QUESTION IS: Are you “dallying with the devil” if you consent to grow more and more comfortable with government-controlled housing, education, healthcare, economy, environment, family dynamics and even religion?  This question is bigger than whether the microchip IS the mark of the beast…it is about whether you can serve God AND Mammon. Jesus says you cannot.  What say ye?
