actually it is the 7 heads of the beast that are the governmenting bodies of the people that are the nature of the beast and it is the horns on the heads of the beast that are the leaders in control of the heads of the beast.

Well, if you want to flex prophecy, you need to consider symbolism.

The forehead, or brow, is the classic seat of thought.
The hand is the source of action. We don't do things with our mouths or our elbows, but with our hands.

They accept the mark of the beast upon their thoughts and their actions.

If you believe that keeping the 'proper' Sabbath is a sign of God's people, how do you equate this with the fact the Jesus himself broke the Sabbath laws quite openly? (If you are coming from a Christian perspective that is.)

Also, I'd be interested to see your answer to the few questions posted about hate mongering.

The Pharisees accused Jesus of breaking the Sabbath laws for healing people on the Sabbath. He used the analogy of an animal being trapped in a pit and if a man would save this creature or ignore it due to it being the Sabbath in an effort to follow the letter of the law. He was pointing out their hypocrisy. They were so obsessed with following the details of the rituals that they forgot the spirit of the law: to help others.

Revelation 14:10 reveals that those who receive the mark of the Beast will have the wrath of God poured upon them. Notice the Apostle Paul’s clear teaching about the recipients of God’s wrath. Colossians 3:6 tells us that “the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.” The mark of the Beast is therefore a brand of disobedience to God. It marks those who refuse to keep God’s commandments in spite of both the preaching of the two witnesses and even the final warning delivered by an angel of God (Revelation 14:9).

The mark of the Beast stands clearly as a brand of disobedience to God and His laws. Does the Bible reveal a contrasting sign of obedience that identifies God’s true people? Notice Exodus 31:13–17. Here God declared to ancient Israel that His Sabbaths were a sign between Him and His people forever! The Sabbath is the test commandment to identify the true God of creation and the people who are obedient to His commands and laws.

Revelation 13 explains that the mark of the Beast, a brand of disobedience to God, is taken upon the hand and the forehead. Just as disobedience is described as worn upon the hand and forehead, so also is obedience to God’s law. Notice Deuteronomy 6. “Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments which the Lord your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: That thou mightest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and commandments… And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes” (vv. 1–2, 8, KJV). The hand is symbolic of actions, while the forehead is the seat of intellect. Obedience to God involves both actions (hand) and will (forehead).

This text clearly indicates the true mark of the beast is SUNDAY worship and denying the "old covenant". Keeping the Sabbath and the Holy days is a mark of GOD's people.

"And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes" Deut 6:8

So the mark of the beast would be an "anti-mark" of the sign of the worship on SUNDAY and refusing the law and commandments...........and worship on FRIDAY as in Islam............

Actions and will make alot of sense. I've been away from church for a long time yet my actions and will are still his and explains alot.

However I must say in following his will my actions must be to enlighten you to the Seventh Day Adventist who would also appreciate this but recognize that the seventh day and sabbath are saturday. No ill wll toward any who are confused about this but it is our duty for our actions to lead others to this truth and others as written by the hand of God.

I'm not pointing you out here, but I just want to muse... Why is it that the same people who were telling us "If you don't have anything to hide, why should you worry about surveillance?" are generally hte first ones to pop up with worries about the "mark of the beast?"
