was read by a scanner in the supermarket where these people did their shopping. As each item
was checked out, the cash register simultaneously flashed it to the proper bank, where it was
automatically deducted from that person’s account.” A full-page illustration which appeared in a
1993 issue of the London Daily Mail, showed housewives in Europe making purchases by
putting their hands on a computer screen at the cash register.
Another alternative has to be considered here also. Note that in Revelation 13:16, it says that
the “mark” will be placed “in” the right hand or forehead, not “on” it. An article in the October 2,
1980 edition of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported:
“Race horses and house cats or other domestic animals may be injected with minute
electronic wafers that will help owners trace their animals. Vern Taylor, President of
Identification Devices, Inc., said that the wafer is printed with a serial number and
injected into the animal, When an electronic wand is passed over the area, the serial
number is displayed on a digital readout. He said that the microchip will be sold to
vetinarians. A computer data bank, known as the Animal Bureau of Identification, will
also help law enforcement officials as well as animal control officers identify animals.”
An article in the June 21, 1981 edition of the Denver Post reported that “a chip ... about the
diameter of the lead in an automatic pencil ... can be injected with a simple insulin-type syringe
into a human (or animal) ... one wafer is encoded with a 12-digit unique number.” It can also be
placed on inanimate objects to electronically monitor the whereabouts of store merchandise and
leased equipment. A Washington Times article (October 11, 1993) contained a report by Martin
Anderson, Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institute, concerning a solution for the problem of people
losing their identification cards. He said: “You see, there is an identification system you can’t
lose. It’s the Syringe Implantable Transponder, a permanent method of identification using radio
waves. A tiny microchip, the size of a grain of rice, is simply injected under the skin.” With this
microchip, satellites can identify your location within 15 feet.
I’ve read reports that suggested that the government was using the mandatory infant
immunization program to secretly implant these chips. That was never proven. Besides, I believe
that part of the end-time plan is for you to make a choice as to who you are going to serve.
Now, ten years later, the system has been refined and perfected. The Palm Beach, Floridabased
company, Applied Digital Solutions has made its VeriChip available for insertion into
humans. The microchip, about the size of a tip of a ball point pen (12 mm X 2.1 mm), which
contains a unique verification number, is implanted in the (right) arm or the hip, using a syringelike
device and a local anesthetic for the pain. The advantages being touted is that hospital
officials and security personnel can access a person’s medical history and confirm identity. The
company has said that they are also developing technology that will enable satellites to track
people who have been kidnapped. Details about their product is sketchy. The company has said
that the chip does not contain any information, it is not known what the information storage
capacity is. It appears that this may be just a prototype system, in that a chip costs $150, there is
a $50 annual maintenance fee, and the scanning equipment and software cost $1,200.
