I never said anyone is damned, you make assumptions. You assume you know what I mean and judge me by your own assumptions.
worship the beast and his image
Having the mark doesn't mean you worship the mark. It was forced on all, both rich and poor, free and slave.
Assigning monetary-like value to Man, and that value is universally worshipped by those who gain power from it.
People are slaves and you don't know it.
When you belong to God, you have His name written on your forehead. When someone worships the mark, they belong to the beast. Their thoughts and actions belong to the beast.
You're free to believe what you wish.
Enjoy the Great Awakening.
God Bless.
