There's something I have a huge issue with: people who deliberately lie about vaccines and say stuff like "God told me it was the mark of the beast and it will turn you into a zombie."
There's something I have a huge issue with: when people deliberately lie about vaccines.
I have an issue with people who knowingly spread false information to the detriment of others.
I'm not talking about people who are afraid of side effects, people who have heard bad things about vaccines, or people with reasonable concerns about whether something has been tested long enough or what its potential side effects are. I'm talking about people who deliberately lie about the effects of vaccines.
For example, people who say God told them something about a vaccine when He clearly didn't like "If you take it, he will never love you and it will turn you into a zombie." That's something I absolutely dislike because, in my opinion, knowingly claiming a false prophecy or spreading false doctrine about something potentially lifesaving is dangerous.
I'm not speaking of people who have no idea and just spread that information unknowingly, but those who knowingly spread this knowing it could kill someone.
One example is false prophets and others who intentionally, knowingly lie, going online and say that the vaccine is the mark of the beast. In reality, it does not fit the criteria described in Revelation 13. I can actually go to Bible Gateway and read the passage.
I am ALSO not talking about people who are telling the truth of bad side effects. This is PURELY anger at people intentionally lying about spiritual matters.
I also had an issue with the news because they didn't meet Christians at their level by simply showing them what the Bible actually says. You could literally take a photo of the Bible, zoom in on the relevant passages, and tell people to read Revelation 13.
If you want to understand the claim, just read Revelation 13 yourself. The chapter isn't even that long. I can read it in a couple of minutes, and honestly, it's interesting. It's almost like reading a form of high fantasy.
Specifically, look at verses 16 through 18. Go check for yourself. Get your Bible, turn to Revelation 13:16-18, and pay attention to what it actually says.
I'll bring the links. We'll have two links: one to the full chapter and another to verses 16-18.
Go get your Bible and turn to Revelation 13:16-18. I challenge you to do that:
I'm not judging people who don't want a vaccine because they're concerned about side effects.
I'm also not judging people who GENUENELY believe it is the mark of the beast, but if you DO NOT believe that and you tell people that it is the mark of the beast despite knowing it is not, fully believing it isn't, then I have an issue with that.
Revelation 13
King James Version
13 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
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 upon 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.
16 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:
17 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.
18 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.

So, essentially, the mark of the beast is described as a mark in either the right hand or the forehead, and no one can buy or sell without having the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of his name. The passage also identifies the number as 666.
The vaccine doesn't fit that description. It isn't placed in your forehead or your hand. It is injected into the muscle, generally in your upper arm. That's not just what people are told. That's what actually happens. CLICK HERE FOR PROOF.
I also haven't gotten the vaccine. I'm being honest about that. I was too afraid to go outside, and I planned to get vaccinated once I felt it had been sufficiently tested, its side effects were better established, and it was considered safe. I haven't gotten around to it, so I've mostly stayed inside because I didn't want to get COVID.
Despite not being vaccinated, I've still been able to buy and sell things. I recently got accepted for a partnership with a company called Dubby, an energy drink brand. I even have a discount code: TREASUREJACKSON that gives me 10% of orders if used. I have sold things from my online store.
That doesn't fit the description in Revelation 13. The passage says that everyone, "small and great, rich and poor, free and bond," receives a mark in their right hand or forehead, and that people cannot buy or sell without it.
If the vaccine were the mark of the beast, it would have to fit those characteristics. Yet I have been able to buy things and sell things without being vaccinated.
The reason I dislike this claim so much is because when a person who claims to be a prophetess lies that the vaccine is the mark of the beast, even if a different vaccine is later shown to have very few side effects, is made safer, or becomes thoroughly tested, some people may still refuse it all while fully believing that the new vaccine is safe for the body because they believe it contains the mark of the beast, and believe they'll turn into a zombie if they take it.
Someone actually lied and said "You would turn into a zombie if you take it."
That's what makes these kinds of lies dangerous. No matter how safe a vaccine becomes or how much evidence exists about it, someone could continue saying, "It has the mark of the beast, so I can't take it."
Some people have experienced side effects after vaccination, while others haven't. I'm talking specifically about people who deliberately claim that God told them the vaccine is the mark of the beast KNOWING the description in Revelation 13 does not match the vaccine also known as they're INTENTIONALLY lying.
