Tattoos and The Antichrist

Tattoos have become increasingly popular for two main reasons.  First, Satan desires to distract people from God and cause them to return to the pagan religions of biblical times.  Although there are new names for certain activities today, they are the same practices of the Babylonians and the Canaanites.  Tattoos were used to honor idol gods.

Secondly, the Antichrist’s coming is imminent.  This one individual will rule the world and will be a reincarnation of Satan in the flesh. He will have occultic supernatural powers and will convince the world that he is the coming of the Messiah whom they have been waiting on (Revelation 13:14). Many will be deceived and will follow him.  He will have such control of the world that he will require everyone to buy and sell through a numeric system stamped on their foreheads and hands.  Taking the number will indicate faith in the antichrist and his control over a person’s life.  Rejecting the number means death.

The purpose for the advancement of the tattoo fad is to prepare the next generation for the coming of the Antichrist.  If people can easily receive tattoos today, when they are finally required to take the number of the name of the Antichrist, it will be accepted with ease because the world will have already embraced a system of body marking (tattoos).

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, TO RECEIVE A MARK IN THEIR RIGHT HAND, OR IN THEIR FOREHEADS: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is SIX HUNDRED THREESCORE AND SIX. (Revelation 13:16-18)
