to me this is a serious matter as the annointed are the basis of how the organization is set up and operates.
yet i have great difficulty in understanding how these people know that they are annointed.
does the bible actually say that they will know?
Hi again Listener,
As you said it seems the anointed have it nice in the Bethel. But it won't last for ever. There will be a great tribulation upon all the inhabited earth to put to the test every one. It is even said that the beast will conquer the "holy ones". According to the prophecies it seems to be that the great tribulation will resemble world wide Nazi-Germany for predicted 3 and half years.

Hi Listener,
The life of anointed is not an easy one, especially if they stay faithful. They are the prime target of Satan. He does everything possible to prevent them become worthy of the kingdom. Because when the full number is collected, it means troubles for him.
Romans 8:16 confirms the difficult and often painful life of the anointed: If, then, we are children, we are also heirs: heirs indeed of God, but joint heirs with Christ, provided we suffer together that we may also be glorified together.
I would shortly describe how the anointed know they have got anointed: They start to feel like they are anointed. Every time they encounter something about anointing or the kingdom of God, the spirit urges them think, this applies to me.
17 However, if some of the branches were broken off but you, although being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became a sharer of the olive’s root of fatness, 18 do not be exulting over the branches. If, though, you are exulting over them, it is not you that bear the root, but the root [bears] you. 19 You will say, then: “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” 20 All right! For [their] lack of faith they were broken off, but you are standing by faith. Quit having lofty ideas, but be in fear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you. 22 See, therefore, God’s kindness and severity. Toward those who fell there is severity, but toward you there is God’s kindness, provided you remain in his kindness; otherwise, you also will be lopped off. 23 They also, if they do not remain in their lack of faith, will be grafted in; for God is able to graft them in again. 24 For if you were cut out of the olive tree that is wild by nature and were grafted contrary to nature into the garden olive tree, how much rather will these who are natural be grafted into their own olive tree!
Here the grafting in to the olive tree means becoming one of the anointed.
the bible says that there will come a time when people everywhere around the globe will be forced to get the mark of the beast to be able to buy or sell.
so those not accepting the mark will get it difficult to even buy food.. and it puts under compulsion all persons, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the slaves, that they should give these a mark in their right hand or upon their forehead,17and that nobody might be able to buy or sell except a person having the mark, the name of the wild beast or the number of its name.18here is where wisdom comes in: let the one that has intelligence calculate the number of the wild beast, for it is a mans number; and its number is six hundred and sixty-six.
-revelation 13:16-18. as beasts symbolises political powers in the bible, so this beast here will be a new political power having power over all the globe.
Hi garyneal,
Thanks for your wellmeant advice for life, but I must take bible prophesy seriously. I want to be among the conquerers of the world, even if that will require sacrifices.
And the Bible warns: “If anyone worships the wild beast and its image, and receives a mark on his forehead or upon his hand, 10 he will also drink of the wine of the anger of God that is poured out undiluted into the cup of his wrath, and he shall be tormented with fire and sulphur in the sight of the holy angels and in the sight of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever, and day and night they have no rest, those who worship the wild beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name. 12 Here is where it means endurance for the holy ones, those who observe the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” -Revelation 14:9-12
Interesting that some applied the prophesy about a death-strike on one of the heads of the beast to Ronald Reagan. But it was obvously not the fullfillment, because nothing special did happen to fullfill the rest of the following profesy. Maybe some of you remember that the WT teaches that the death wound applied to USA during the first world war. That USA suffered heavily from the war. But revived. But time has gone so much and there locically can't be so big gaps in the prophesy. But I've been recently thinking that the recent economic meltdown in USA might be the death wound in the Revelation and that now USA is in the process of healing from the wound.

Could you, DaCheech please explain better what is the UPC bare code?

As beasts symbolises political powers in the Bible, so this beast here will be a new political power having power over all the globe. That's what globalism is going to end in. Then this new global governance, a NEW WORLD ORDER wich has been on the lips of world's leading politicians will force you to take the mark of the beast containing it's number 666. Unless you take this mark you'll be unable to buy food in ordinary warehouses. Now many people use different kind of credit cards or other cards, but then the global government will propably abolish these cards and coins and papermoney and give you the mark of the beast instead, and you'll have to use it when you'll by your food.
This mark will propably be an electonic microchip implanted under your skin in the righthand with all necessary information about you, your accounts and everything the government wishes. When you'll go to by your food you'll streach out your hand to be scanned. And that's how you'll pay in the shop. But if you refuse to take the mark of the beast you'll not be able to buy or sell. You'll be in trouble.
But if you'll take the mark of the beast you'll be in trouble with Jesus. So prepare for hard times ahead. Don't take the mark of the beast even if you'll have to suffer. May be this imposing of the mark will begin in one country and succesively spread to other countries. If it will start in USA, maybe you could flee to an other country. USA seems to be Babylon the Great, and the Bible says, leave her.
Here I provide you additional information about the mark of the beast on different youtube videos from different sources:
just a refresher on the jw explanation of the what number 666, the mark of the beast, really means:.
the mark identified.
immediately after disclosing the number 666, revelation mentions 144,000 followers of the lamb, jesus christ, who have his name and the name of his father, jehovah, written on their foreheads.
There are a lot of christians who conciders the RFID- microchip to be the mark of the beast. It is to be implanted into the right hand. On youtube you'll quickly find a lot of information about the mark of the beast if you search RFID.
if you do not get out of her, you will receive part of her plagues.
if this is near to happening, and if god reveals to his people before he acts, then it would be important to understand this would it not?
not that your condemned if you don't just from that scripture rev 18:4, but god is intending to do something and as a kindness giving a warning.
It might be USA, because it is a superpower like Babylon was in ancient with the king Nebuchadnessar. But I'm waiting for a proper opportunity to go to Israel, like in ancient times God's people went to Israel.
