The mission of the body of Christ remains unchanged, to make disciples, baptize them, and teach them to observe all Jesus has commanded. However, a day is coming when those who reject Christ will face his wrath, and the world will be deceived into believing a lie. The Antichrist will set up a global system where people will be forced to take his mark, either on their right hand or forehead, in order to buy or sell. This mark is not just a physical identifier, but also a symbol of loyalty and allegiance to the Antichrist. The number 666 is significant, representing the Antichrist's attempt to mimic the triune God, but its true meaning remains a puzzle until the tribulation. [... more]
