I agree with elder Charles, i believe the c/c is in the palm of your hand and the number in your head is the password or numbers

In the hand and forhead

This is disturbing to me as it seems to be here already. I have seen two shows recently on television. One said a money call "bit coin " will eventaully be the world currency.. because it is easier to wire, transfer, etc.. and another program a show was speaking of the "Techy " company.. who has chips implanted into the employees ' hands.. for allowing them access into and from the building.. this is all happening NOW..before rapture.. Scary stuff.. Please please be talking to friends and family, so they may be awake to the warnings.. The end is very very near

I think your social security is the mark of the beast government

The beast mandated that no man might buy or sell. The folks that were referred in this case are the believers because they are not ready to obey the beast or worship her.

helene's comment on 2013-11-03 19:54:35:

The mark could be an embedded chip or palm scan. "The number of his name" only numbers tied to the currency of the beast so that all transactions are recorded and evaluated for taxation.

This is already happening. Ask any Christian, Hindu, Jew or other who lives in a majority Muslim land. They are forced to conversion, stolen from their families, unable to worship in their own beliefs, their businesses are burned out or they have to pay bribes - all under pain of death to them and their families. The mark of the beast is the (symbolic) spot on Muslims forehead from touching the ground in prayer. Muslim worship is the beast. Allah who commands death to nonmuslims and all sorts of other cruelties is the antiChrist. Here is your fight of good vs evil.

Without Christ you can do nothing. Without Christ and baptism one can not enter into the Priesthood of Christ, without the holy sacrifice of Christ one cannot partake of the body and blood of Christ for Christ is Lord of ETERNAL LIFE, THE HOLY SPIRIT, the HOLY SPIRIT IS ETERNAL LIFE amen,amen. GRACE and PEACE to the people of God, amen I say unto YOU, amen.

Have we all taken the mark? when you purchase Items with your Debit card or charge card. It has a chip in it. When you scan it, the chip is in the palm of your hand. Just a thought

joshua's comment on 2012-12-04 19:07:39:

This scripture does not pertain to the rapture read. The whole chapter to understand its meaning not just has few words. And yes the mark, name, and number will all pertain/describe the same one.

Jony's comment on 2012-02-10 15:00:11:

"buy or sell" must mean the ability to work. (illegal immigrants are forbidden to work)Mark on the hand must be a fingerprint and mark on the head must mean some form of picture i.d.

Howard Shropshire's comment on 2011-06-29 04:19:41:

This verse is saying three things. The mark. What is the mark? The name. What is the name? And I know the number. It looks like this verse is saying you have to have at lease one of three things.

James's comment on 2010-12-15 18:35:00:

If asked to use three words to describe how I feel I may say "I feel good, or happy, or peaceful". All three describe my ONE feeling today. So does the "the mark, OR the name of the beast, OR the number of his name." all describe one thing?

AC's comment on 2010-03-23 20:43:18:

I beleive this scripture pertains to the tribulation after the Church is called out in the Rapture
