About 800 Million Chinese got the Mark of the Beast - the Bible comes True......
Chinese Communist Party(CCP) – The Beast of Ancient Prophecies – this story and many other prophecies at http://www.expandourmind.com
CCP right hand vow to Young Pioneers are made at age 6 in China.
Translation of the young pioneers right-hand vow: “I love the Chinese Communist Party, I love the motherland, I love the people, I study well, I train well, I am ready to contribute to the cause of communism.”
Incredibly the right-hand vow in China was foreseen in the Bible´s Book of Revelation 13:16 as the Mark of the Beast: “It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads.”
Many people have argued about the Mark of the Beast mentioned in the Bible. Some people thought that modern technology would create this mark for people while others had other opinions. In our humble opinion there is one outstanding phenomenon taking place in the biggest country of the world today, which is China. Being marked by the beast must involve making a vow since without a vow how could you be punished for giving up your life to the beast?
Since the 1950s the Chinese Communist Party(CCP) has ensured that as many Chinese children as possible make a personal vow to love the CCP and communism. Since the CCP has the darkest history of any organization on earth, what does it mean to swear your allegiance to them? Isn´t this exactly what the Bible talks about in the Books of Revelation? We have previously mentioned that China is Jerusalem during the end of times in the Bible, hence it is natural that China also creates the Mark of The Beast. China has systematically arranged this mark of the beast in three categories from the age of six until adult age. Almost all Chinese has to swear the allegiance, excluded are people who are considerred the enemy of the CCP, ie people with ancestors who were land owners in China, dissidents or students who don´t follow the rules in school etc. It seems like these outcasts will become lucky in the future as a repayment for their suffering today.
If anyone refuses to make this vow or refuses to put on the red scarf at school, he will usually be expelled from school or at least he will be considered an outcast in school with no rights or benefits like other students.
(CCP Youth League – ages 14-18)
Later there is a CCP Youth League which starts at the age of 14 and which involves around half of China´s students. It is considerred a benefit to join the Youth League in China and the oath is more serious than the Young Pioneers oath.
Translation of the Youth League vow below:
“I volunteer to join the Chinese Communist Youth League, and resolutely support the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party, I will comply with the league charter, implement the resolution of the league, fulfill obligations of a league member, strictly follow the league’s discipline, study hard, work actively, suffer first, enjoy later, and I will fight for the the communist cause.”
Finally there is the CCP membership vow from age 18 which is the most serious:
“I volunteer to join the Communist Party of China, uphold the Party’s program and abide by the Party Constitution, fulfill duties of party members, implement the party’s decisions, strictly observe Party discipline, conserve the Party’s secrets, be loyal to the Party, actively work and fight for the Chinese Communist Party during my entire life, ready to sacrifice everything for the party and the people at any time, and never betray the Party.”
Many kids in China are looking for CCP membership as a way to enhance their benefits and career options. It is well known that members will have an easier material life than other people. What is less known is the spiritual suffering that follows these people.
Any person who gives an oath to the CCP has sold their soul to the evil communist spectre, created by the likes of Karl Marx. Of course, nobody can blame Chinese kids for being forced to take an oath but as adults they should realize the seriousness of this kind of promise.
Mao Zedong worshipped as a God in China
As we know the CCP has established itself as an evil religion in China and modern people worship tyrants such as Mao Zedong in their homes and his portrait is placed in public places across the country.
China has always been referred to as “Middle Kingdom” or even “Center of the World” in ancient times. The Bible has talked a lot about Jerusalem, such as in Ezekiel 5:5:
“This is what the Sovereign LORD says: This is Jerusalem, which I have set in the center of the nations, with countries all around her.”
Jerusalem is China according to the Bible and it has correctly predicted the communist vows being taken in China using the right hand.
We all know that according to Christian faith this kind of person will be eliminated at Judgment Day due to his “Mark of the Beast”. Around 15 million Chinese kids per year have given oaths to the CCP organizations since the 1950s. A rough estimate would place the number of Chinese who have given oath(s) to the CCP at around 800 million or more. This is the most terrifying oath that anyone with any faith in religion or goodness can imagine.
The prime enemy of the CCP – Falun Gong
Revelation 12:9: And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.…
Revelation 12:11: And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.
According to the Bible the “Great Red Dragon” will be conquerred by its main enemy. Since 1999 Falun Gong has been marked as the main public enemy by the CCP and this is in line with predictions from great prophets.
The great prophet Emmanuel Swedenborg testified in Arcana Coelestia: ””the dragon and his angels” and afterwards ”the beasts,” mean those who will assault the church and its doctrine. This vision is called ”a great sign” because a ”sign” means Divine manifestation respecting things to come, and attestation, here respecting the coming church and its doctrine… ”. Many prophets have foretold that there will be a “New Church” on earth during the End of Times. Swedenborg wrote about this new spiritual faith in his book “New Church” describing how it will spread rapidly across the whole world from China and how it will be attacked by evil people.
Falun Gong is a practice of body and soul which attracted 100 million Chinese in only seven years time and spread to more than 100 countries in a few years. At that point the CCP leader Jiang Zemin became jealous and illegally outlawed Falun Gong. At the same time the CCP started persecuting the practitioners in China and even harvested their organs for money. If the CCP is the beast of all the old prophecies, what is Falun Gong? Today the Falun Gong practitioners are the only people really standing up against the CCP on a global scale. Isn´t this a significant thing in line with ancient prophecies? Everyone should learn some facts about the CCP and Falun Gong to understand the world today and realize where there is evil and where there is goodness.
With these facts in mind we can also understand the reason why so many Chinese have joined the “Tuidang movement” initiated by Falun Gong practitioners(“the word of their testimony” in Rev 12:11) in order to help Chinese people get rid of their evil vows to the CCP. Up until today more than 220 million Chinese people have taken away their CCP vows. As time progresses and the evidence of the massive corruption and evil persecution of innocent people in China becomes obvious to ordinary people, the CCP will automatically collapse. We can only pray that as many people as possible have withdrawn from the CCP at that time.
This World is reaching its tail end and all the prophecies are coming true as we speak. The scriptures are there, the real world is here and we can match these two and find the truth. Communism is the antichrist and it is practiced openly in the east and covertly in the West as cultural marxism. The main battle field between good and evil is in China, the “Middle Kingdom” of the world.

THE BIBLE SAYS–IN YOUR RIGHT HAND OR IN YOUR FOREHEAD–Not on your right hand or forehead.
The warmest places on your body is the right hand or your forehead. THESE TWO PLACES BEING HOT WILL KEEP THE BATTERIES CHARGED.
Folks the CHIPS have poison in them so the NWO can kill you if you do not follow their orders.
The Holy Bible Says that People will have GRIEVIOUS SORES that run with puss and they cannot be healed. Think
about that before you let the NWO put a chip in you. The Main Thing here is you will be sentenced to Hell if you take the chip. When tou take the chip/mark you will have to take an oath to serve the antichrist.
THINK BEFORE YOU TAKE THE CHIP> To be with GOD is Magnificent. To be with Satan is Hell.
PASTOR DALE.
The bible is irrelevant here, as it is almost everywhere (okay, it has a place in church and Sunday school, but no where else – not in the real world).
But this story has nothing to do with a book of fables, allegories and riddles, written by mischievous Jewish practical jokers a couple of thousand years ago.
No this is a story about proud Chinese children
Strong, intelligent and determined Chinese children; just compare them to their American or European counterparts… In China there is no obesity, no mongolitis, no disobedience: just hard work and loyalty.
This makes Mister Wong a very happy and proud Chinaman
so we can safely assume that you are in china sucking on chairman’s member firmly then…good to know chinaman
Lordy no, Mister Duffer – I’m in our new country, China 2.0 as we call it (an in-joke amongst Chinese settlers in former USA).
Since we own most of USA now, China’s over-population problem has been solved: simple, many Chinese move to parts of USA ….which we now legally own
We look forward to offering you part-time job for minimum wage in one of our many business
smarmy gook, you awfully full of yourself, are you not the nation that was enslaved o so long ago in the herion wars? are you not owned lock stock an barrel by the city of london? also, we have plenty of you here.
here, this outta give you perspective, if you “get” what im sayin, skraeling.

WHY ALL THE CONFUSION. WHY DONT YOU PEOPLE EVEN KNOW WHAT THE “MARK” OF THE “BEAST” IS??????
ITS NOT A MICRO CHIP. for those last ones, in the very very very small case, there is someone who will see this link, click on it, watch it, and, hopefully, the scales will fall off the eyes, because,.if a CHILD can figure it out, why have you not?
well, because of occult atmospheric pressure, so much confusion , please. if you are GENUINELY interested, in NOT getting the MARK, then pls watch this :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgHoVZhTkI4
really, time is running out, and its NEVER too late to wake up to the tricks.
Good find Richard. What the guy is saying in that video you linked makes way more sense than the ‘mark’ being a microchip. Not only that, but the video is backed up by Scripture.
Blow-hard Wong says the Bible is irrelevant to the real world. Better think again, Wong. Since when does China control the sun and the other powers of nature?
The Bible says God created nature and that it answers to Him alone.
During the Three Days of Darkness, when Christ and His Angels visit the earth, they will employ the powers of nature to purify the world of all physical and spiritual contaminants.
The Bible even says when this will happen.
The Bible is a proved document — many of its prophecies have already come true, especially those pertaining to the life and death of Christ. The Bible says every one of its prophecies will come true. That bodes ill for communist atheist China which, during the divine visitation, will pretty much be incinerated.
Don’t bother trying to hide, Wong. There will be no place to hide from God’s judgment. Grace alone will suffice to avert God’s wrath — and you don’t seem to place any importance in God’s grace. Better smarten up, Wong.
Mr. Wong;
Your constant statements that God and His inspired word are irrelevant is getting rediculous. Simply because YOU turn your back on the ONE who is responsible for your existence, and the existence of EVERYTHING in the universe, is NO REASON for you to attempt to pawn your false beliefs upon anyone else. God will soon eliminate all who oppose Him, his son Jesus, and His word, the Bible. Currently, Satan still rules the world (all the people, not the planet itself), but that is about to change abruptly. He prophecied a great tribulation where everyone and everything goes crazy, and a final battle, the battle of Armageddon, where Satan is locked up (abyssed), along with the third of God’s angels who side with Satan. At the same time, all governments and militaries, and religions, and all who destroy the Earth both physically, and spiritually, and ALL, including you, who oppose Him in ANY WAY, will be exterminated from the surface of the Earth. Actually, it will be very nice having NO ONE who is a bad person, no illness, no death, no sorrow, nothing bad existing ever again on Earth. This extermination will be all but about ten million or less. They are the ones doing the ENTIRE WILL OF GOD, all day, every day, without any exceptions. The ones obeying Him, are the ones He will protect in the final battle and the tribulation just before it. It’s ramping up RIGHT NOW. You do still have time to save yourself, but I’m not confident you will do anything about it. You’re just like all the others throughout time who think they’re smarter than the one who created you. Trust me, you’re definately not. So please, stop spouting your rediculous and absurd beliefs. It benefits no one, not even you. It just further seals your destiny, the grave.
The warmest places on your body is the right hand or your forehead. THESE TWO PLACES BEING HOT WILL KEEP THE BATTERIES CHARGED.

Not me. I will take no mark. Even if they kill me…
Arte;
If you roll through stop signs, vote, have a favorite football team, salute the flag, show off your new car, house, dress to impress, not honest in taxes, job, have sex outside wedlock, watch violent films, celebrate Easter, Christmas, birthdays, wear a cross, attend a Christendom church, and so on, you ALREADY HAVE the mark of the beast.
“THE BIBLE SAYS…”
So what?!
It only matters to a relatively small number of indoctrinated Anglo-American weirdos anyway; the vast majority of the world population would tell you to shove your bible into your… handbag. And leave it there.
Dear Wong,
The Bible and Christians were responsible for birthing the greatest nation the world has ever known. As Christ said, by their fruit you shall know them.
The sad commentary is that it is the very freedom that created the greatest nation on Earth that has become its undoing as many people here in America have lost their connection to the God of the Bible and to the Constitution that protects their freedom. Lost is really not the right word, stolen from them is a better description by those of your ilk who think righteousness comes from the government edict of increasingly depraved minds.

Global Grist;
You mean the Bible and CHRISTENDOM, not Christians, since the two are NOT THE SAME THING. Christendom is NOT Christian, it’s apostate Christianity. It’s a counterfeit COPY of the ORIGINAL Christianity Jesus taught in the first century, and NONE OF THEM teach that. In fact they ALL teach something different from all others, yet they ALL claim to be the “one”, when NONE OF THEM ARE.
Mr. Wong;
You’re COMPLETELY WRONG, Wong. It matters to EVERY PERSON ON EARTH. It’s the single MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER. What the vast majority of the world, apostates, think, is of no matter and has NO effect on what’s about to happen. They’ll ALL be exterminated. THEN, it won’t matter to them any more. Since we have NO IMMORTAL SOUL, they’ll be gone FOREVER. YOU included.
The Chinese communist party is not the most evil organization on earth, in order would be the:
* Roman Empire
* Islam
*The Catholic church
* Zionist banking empire.
The CCP hardly ranks with more people killed by innate incompetence and corruption than by deliberate acts. The Roman Empire killed people for their land, Gold, political reasons, property, and last but not least entertainment for the masses for a good 2000 years. The Catholic Church managed by Proxy in one century in the Americas what it took 1000 years of Roman rule to do.
Islam is a constant killer/enslaver in the world most of its practitioners are formerly victims.
The Zionist banking empire operates by proxy, actually nations are perfectly capable of refusing to fight in Zionist wars therefore are themselves responsible for their actions. Just like Eve in the Garden, you get to refuse the serpent. Your choice.
Sightings of children in hell.

“Sightings of children in hell.”
SERIOUSLY??? You use CHILDREN for your weirded out religious agenda? And you have a link so people can view such foolish CRAP. Yaaaa some pretty sicko stuff your doing there. Why don’t you leave innocent children ALONE?????
Damn them Albinos! Damn them I say!
There is NO hell. It is a fairy tale invented by the Catholic Church to guilt people.
St. Paul on Hell:
…Ammi…Well I guess you’ve noticed that insanity has taken many of our more ‘enthusiastic’ brethren. It was inevitable. A stable, honest faith is practically impossible for the many, who are deceived by the doctrines of TRADITIONAL RELIGION. Christianity is NOT religion.
…
Maxxy;
You surprise me, you’re absolutely correct. Religion IS NOT CHRISTIAN. Christianity is NOT RELIGION.
…Mike… aren’t you the one who can’t find eternity in the scriptures? or is that the other one?
maxxy;
What are you talking about?
The word “hell” is found 54 times in the King James Bible. It is translated from several different words with various meanings as indicated below:
In the Old Testament:
31 times from the Hebrew “Sheol,” which means “the grave”
In the New Testament:
10 times from the Greek “Hades,” which means “the grave”
12 times from the Greek “Gehenna,” which means “a place of burning”
1 time from the Greek “Tartarus,” which means “a place of darkness”
“Tartarus” is used once, in 2 Peter 2:4, and means “a place of darkness or restraint.” “Tartarus” is where Satan and his demons reside now. It isn’t a place of punishment or flames.
“Gehenna” means a place of fire, brimstone, and punishment (see Matthew 5:29-30, described in Matthew 13:40-42 and 2 Peter 3:7.) Note these flames are still in the future at the end of the world.
“Hades” means “the grave” (Acts 2:31; 1 Corinthians 15:55; Revelation 20:14). The body of Jesus rested there and His saints are resting there now awaiting the resurrection.
The Greek word “Hades” is translated as “Hell” in many English Bibles such as the King James Version. In Revelation 6:8, the King James Version refers to “Death and Hell.” It does the same in Revelation 20:14. Yet some English Bibles use the word “Hades” itself, such as the New International Version, which translates both Revelation 6:8 and 20:14 as “Death, and Hades.” Now here is the point; In Revelation 20:14 “Hades” is eventually “cast into the lake of fire.” So as you can therefore see, “Hades” itself is not a fiery place, but is cast into “the lake of fire.”
So Biblically speaking, Hades means the grave. This is easy to prove from 1 Corinthians 15:55, which in the King James Version states, “O death, where is thy sting? O grave [Hades], where is thy victory?” If you look in the Strong’s dictionary, you will find that the Greek word here translated “grave” is “Hades.” By looking at the context, it is obvious that it means “the grave” because it is God’s saints who rise out of “Hades” when Jesus Christ returns. See 1 Corinthians 15:50-55. Therefore, “Hades” cannot mean a place of burning, for who can imagine God’s people writhing in flames as they await the resurrection? That would be absolutely ludicrous

Michael Carrigan;
It’s IMPOSSIBLE to have a sighting of children in hell, since hell is the common grave of mankind. It is NOT some fictitious, pagan, place of fire and torture that the apostate religions known as sects of Christendom teach that it is. They all LIE. God’s word, the Bible, does NOT teach that hell is anything more than the grave of man. Only FALSE TRANSLATIONS hint at it, not the ACTUAL, ACCURATE word of God. The KJV and all versions like it are so mistranslated as to have misled billions, and yet those billions believe with all their heart that it’s accurate. Nothing could be further from the truth. No religion teaches the truth either. God said the only approved of worship of Him is the Christianity that Jesus taught, when He sent him to Earth to sacrifice for us, and to start the New Covenant with the 144,000. ANYTHING ELSE means turning your back on God, and becoming His ENEMY, and thus, being exterminated in the tribulation and final battle. Very sad indeed, that so many on Earth reject God’s words and only accept man’s. God wishes NO ONE to be destroyed, and so has WARNED all alive for two thousand plus years about these things, but they ALL IGNORE THOSE WARNINGS, constantly.
To swear an oath to a false king and his doctrines is not the same as to take the Beasts Mark. It is only human error, a sin that will be forgiven as soon as one changes ways. Almost all young Germans pledged allegiance to the Hooked Cross and Hitler during the cursed twelve years. But most of them did NOT become murderers like their “master”.
Pastor Dale, moreover, is absoutely right to point to the details of the Mark story in Revelation.
The mark is a material implant, not only the invisible magick of some ritual;
and it is a materially poisonous implant, causing ulceration where it is implanted.
See what this means?
The mark will be imposed upon us in a material form;
consequently, Materialism must be its origin.
Materialism really is the most evil form of black ideology, worse than black magick.
For, all magicians know that spirits, the Spirit Himself, and the immortal soul exist, their disconnection to the Creator is only incomplete; they will easily be converted when they realize that Prayer is true White Magick and that a connection to God´s Spirit works better in life than evocation of ghosts and ghouls…
but the Materialist, woe!
this poor Godless creature is contented and even proud to be a mere lump of flesh and a product of coincidence, without a meaning, without a soul, without a Father in Heaven, and without a Mother Earth.
Such a mind most probably cannot learn to treat others and the planet better than according to his image of the world – i.e. with love. All he will be able and gifted to learn is to pretend righteousness, to grab riches, to despise those as childish / superstitious who still have God in their hearts, and to be indifferent to other´s woes.
God have mercy – please prevent me and all people who read this from ever falling into the pit of Materialism.
That might work for China but only China.
The Mark of the Beast has not come yet and won’t until the nations are all broken down and all societies operate from a world digital currency. Once you understand that you can’t buy or sell anything with out going thru the beast power, you have the mark of the beast. It is strictly my opinion but I see the Mark of the Beast yet 8 or more years out.
..the uncircumcised, will serve the devil’s system. If they are worshipers, they have the mark “in” the fore head….If one is out there Working for the antichrist corporation…its on his hand. His ‘right’ hand.
…You could have hundreds of microchips in your ‘corporeal’ body and it could not change your mind, your heart or your soul. You could be tattooed with trip 6′s all over your body and face and love our Lord Jesus Christ. Just as before the mark being tattooed…..can’t change what’s inside.
…Your physical identity was always meant to be a temporary condition. What your spiritual identity is made of, is what is potentially eternal. That is all that can go forward from here.
…Penny….. the Lord has promised to watch over and protect the remnant. And we’re gonna need that protection in a very serious way…very, very soon…

You can’t bibilically sell your soul. Just look at this contradiction “Any person who gives an oath to the CCP has sold their soul to the evil communist spectre” Because, God owns all souls; but you can lose your soul to the devil.

The mark of the beast spoken of in God’s word, the Bible, IS NOT A PHYSICAL MARK. I am surprised to see yet another author who doesn’t know what a figure of speech is. It’s a METAPHOR. The mark on the right hand refers to one’s ACTIONS, and the forehead mark refers to one’s THOUGHTS. There will NEVER BE A PHYSICAL MARK OF THE BEAST.
IDENTIFYING THE MARK OF THE BEAST:
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. These names identify the bearers as belonging to Jehovah and to his Son, about whom they proudly bear witness. Likewise, those having the mark of the beast proclaim their servitude to the beast. Thus, the mark, whether on the right hand or on the forehead, figuratively speaking, is a symbol that identifies its bearer as one who gives worshipful support to the beastlike political systems of the world. Those having the mark give to “Caesar” that which rightly belongs to God. (Luke 20:25; Revelation 13:4, 8; 14:1) How? By giving worshipful honor to the political state, its symbols, and its military might, to which they look for hope and salvation. Any worship that they render the true God is merely lip service.
In contrast, the Bible urges us: “Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs. His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish.” (Psalm 146:3, 4) Those who heed that wise counsel are not disillusioned when governments fail to deliver on their promises or when charismatic leaders fall from grace.—Proverbs 1:33.
This does not mean that true Christians sit back and do nothing about mankind’s plight. On the contrary, they actively proclaim the one government that will solve mankind’s problems—God’s Kingdom, which they represent.—Matthew 24:14.
Up above there is a link in Richard’s second comment to a youtube video. I think you will like it.
No one has yet received the mark of the beast. The testing time has not yet come. There are true Christians in every church, not excepting the Roman Catholic communion. None are condemned until they have had the light and have seen the obligation of the fourth commandment. But when the decree shall go forth enforcing the counterfeit sabbath, and the loud cry of the third angel shall warn men against the worship of the beast and his image, the line will be clearly drawn between the false and the true. Then those who still continue in transgression will receive the mark of the beast. With rapid steps we are approaching this period. When Protestant churches shall unite with the secular power to sustain a false religion, for opposing which their ancestors endured the fiercest persecution, then will the papal sabbath be enforced by the combined authority of church and state. There will be a national apostasy, which will end only in national ruin. — Manuscript 51, 1899.
It is not a physical mark nor is it swearing allegiance to a country. It is a matter of worshipping the true God the Creator and keeping His holy law including the Seventhday Sabbath.
