eran, not many have, until the Real ID Act was signed into law about 2 years ago. Once you read up on teh Real ID Act, you begin to think that Revelation 13 is VERY Literal.

If Rev 13 is to be taken Literally, that means that very few, if any Believers (Christians) will be around during this period. To paint a Picture, Revelation 13 takes places before the Battle at Armageddon.
Until recently, everyone thought that this was symbolic...until the development of the RFID (VeriChip/Xmark), RFID Powder (Hitachi) and Mondex (Mastercard)became known, as well as the Real ID Act signed into law in 2005. The key wording here in Rev 13:13-16 is that that no man will be able to buy or sell without this mark (see the Real ID Act) and those who will not take this mark, and renounce God, will be Beheaded. The Real ID Act, which goes into effect Jan 1, 2010, will prevent ANYONE without it to use any Government programs, open or even use any Bank Accounts,and even travel VIA Airplane or Train.
Now, I'm not saying that the Real ID is indeed the Mark, but the REAL ID act, the Verichip and the Mondex Smartcard all has the potential to usher in this Mark in the future.
1 last thing, a Jewel-Osco Supermarket in Chicago is test marketing a system where you pay with your fingerprint...no cash or credit cards. That is how far along we are with this "Smart" Technology. -

I'll just say that it will put a damper on their "Living through Armageddon" hopes since this part of Revelation they do take Literally.

1 So Jehovah said to Moses: “Now you will see what I shall do to Phar´aoh, because on account of a strong hand he will send them away and on account of a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”
2 And God went on to speak to Moses and to say to him: “I am Jehovah. 3 And I used to appear to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as God Almighty, but as respects my name Jehovah I did not make myself known to them.
KJV
1Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.
2And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD:
3And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them. -

Here's one I love to refute. They claim that Bishops are apart of False Religion, yet in 1 Tim 3:1 it states that (KJV) "This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work." G Figure.

The Mark of the Beast.....
by A-Team inthe real id act, to go into effect may 12, 2008 or december 2009.
starting three years from now, if you live or work in the united states, you'll need a federally approved id card to travel on an airplane, open a bank account, collect social security payments, or take advantage of nearly any government service.
practically speaking, your driver's license likely will have to be reissued to meet federal standards.

.....Could this be it? The Real ID Act, to go into effect May 12, 2008 or December 2009. What does that mean for me? Starting three years from now, if you live or work in the United States, you'll need a federally approved ID card to travel on an airplane, open a bank account, collect Social Security payments, or take advantage of nearly any government service. Practically speaking, your driver's license likely will have to be reissued to meet federal standards. News.context What's new: The House of Representatives has approved an $82 billion military spending bill with an attachment that would mandate electronically readable ID cards for Americans. President Bush is expected to sign the bill. Bottom line: The Real ID Act would establish what amounts to a national identity card. State drivers' licenses and other such documents would have to meet federal ID standards established by the Department of Homeland Security. More stories on this topic The Real ID Act hands the Department of Homeland Security the power to set these standards and determine whether state drivers' licenses and other ID cards pass muster. Only ID cards approved by Homeland Security can be accepted "for any official purpose" by the feds. How will I get one of these new ID cards? You'll still get one through your state motor vehicle agency, and it will likely take the place of your drivers' license. But the identification process will be more rigorous. For instance, you'll need to bring a "photo identity document," document your birth date and address, and show that your Social Security number is what you had claimed it to be. U.S. citizens will have to prove that status, and foreigners will have to show a valid visa. State DMVs will have to verify that these identity documents are legitimate, digitize them and store them permanently. In addition, Social Security numbers must be verified with the Social Security Administration. What's going to be stored on this ID card? At a minimum: name, birth date, sex, ID number, a digital photograph, address, and a "common machine-readable technology" that Homeland Security will decide on. The card must also sport "physical security features designed to prevent tampering, counterfeiting, or duplication of the document for fraudulent purposes." Homeland Security is permitted to add additional requirements--such as a fingerprint or retinal scan--on top of those. We won't know for a while what these additional requirements will be.

Revelation 7:13
by Sarah Smiles intherefore the great multitude could not appear prior to 1918. riches pg 297, paragraph 2.. the identification of the great multitude has not heretofore been clear to those creatures on earth who served god.
evidently john, being in doubt, propounded the question as to the identity of the great multitude.
had he known, he would not had asked the question.
