In Revelation 13:16–18, the apostle John describes a vision of a prophetic event that has come to be known as the “mark of the Beast.” John wrote that, unless a person receives this mark, they will be unable to transact business. Over the centuries, scholars have debated what this mark might be and how it could be implemented. Recently, some have speculated that perhaps the COVID-19 vaccine might be the mark, or at least a precursor to its arrival.

In this episode, Dr. Bernard reviews what the Bible says about the Beast and his evil agenda. He also discusses whether it is biblically acceptable for Christians to receive a COVID-19 vaccination, and how technological developments could help usher in the reign of the Antichrist.
