14   And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.     15   And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. ~ REVELATION 13:14-15

This is a prophecy of the United States at the end time. The beast, specifically the mark of the beast, is believing that church attendance or even clean living is sufficient for God’s favor. It is a Cain offering. Take it or leave it. I was thinking about great persecution of Christians all over the world and wondered how many Christians would be loyal in the US if they were threatened with their lives the way they are in other countries. The beast promotes passive religion, and even in the Message we can fall into that same category of a passive believing, although we dress right and try to be good people. To fail to enter into being the manifestation of the Word of THIS HOUR is the danger of the false anointing of this day.
