Why Christians worldwide should reject the abhorrent
idea of a Covid
Vaccine Passport
By Pastor David
Bizley
In Genesis 1v27 we
read that God said, “Let us make man in our image.” If there is one
thing that sets
mankind apart from the rest of creation it is a person’s ability to reason for
themselves, to assert one’s own will and to make independent
decisions. This is exactly
what it means to be
made in the image of God. God the Creator did not have to create
mankind, but He
obviously reasoned
that we were a good idea. God asserted His own will to
create us and made
this decision
not under compulsion but rather as a completely
independent Sovereign
Being. This
“image” which was in fact His image was the greatest
gift that God could
impart to His special creation, man
and woman. We know this “image”
today by another
name, it is autonomy, the ability to self-govern!
Now think about the
power of that gift for a moment. God did not have to make us
autonomous beings, He
had the power and the choice to make us “wired” to love and obey
Him, just as in the
same way our beloved canine pets are literally wired to love and obey us!
Why should God take
the risk that we would rebel against our Creator, that we would dare
to disagree with Him,
that we would independently assert our freedoms to choose paths for
our lives outside of
His perfect will? Simply because that was the price of autonomy,
because ‘God is love’ (1 John 4v16) and
without autonomy love is hollow, in fact without
autonomy love is
completely non-existent because love demands choice!
This wonderful gift
of autonomy is the very thing that is being threatened by any concept of
a
“Vaccine Passport.” It should
be as abhorrent an idea to those who have asserted their
free will to be Covid
vaccinated as it will be to those who are asserting their free will not to
take a Covid vaccine
whether that be for medical, religious, or ideological reasons.
Why? Because it will remove an individual’s God given right
to choose and make their own
place in society.
Why? Because it will
elevate the compliant and punish the non-compliant for no other
reason than what an
individual decides to do with their own God given body.
Why? Because it will
grant complete control of a person’s freedom of movement to be
decided by the
secular State.
Why? Because it will
surrender to the secular State the power of self-determination through
the power of
compulsion; remove the opportunity for self-betterment through academic
and economic
restriction and suppress self-expression by stigmatising all who disagree with
State policy. Why? Because it smells of the spirit of antichrist most revealed in the ‘Mark of the Beast’ of Revelation 13!
‘And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to
receive a mark on
their right hand or on their forehead, so
that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark—the name of the beast or the number of
its name. Here is a
call for wisdom: Let the one who has insight calculate the number of the
beast, for it is the
number of a man, and that number is 666.…’
In Revelation 13 we read that one called the Beast, aka the Anti-Christ will control the world
economically and
socially through a mark that will be either on the forehead or the hand.
This mark is a pledge
of allegiance to the Beast and his system of
governance, and it is to be
recognised as a
number beginning or incorporated with 666. Anyone who has this “mark”
will be able to trade and move freely in the Beast’s world system,
anyone who doesn’t will
be targeted for
punishment by the Anti-Christ State!
Is the “Covid Vaccine Passport” the actual Mark of
The Beast then? No, we are not quite at
that point in history (but we are Oh so close!), but it
does not have to be the actual mark of
Beast for the
Christian to be warned off it. In 1 John 2v18 we read that there have always
been antichrists in the world, all of which are a
prelude to the final Anti-Christ.
Furthermore, the book
of Revelation is relevant to every
generation not just the one in
which the Beast will
emerge in person. Therefore the Christian is to be warned that
whenever a person or
a system appears on the pages of history that smells like an antichrist,
one that separates
people on the basis of race or their belief system, who grants special
privilege or denies
access to otherwise normal daily pursuits simply because of compliance
or non-compliance on
a decision that has specific implications for their own autonomous
God given body – THAT IS THE SPIRIT OF THE ANTI-CHRIST, THAT IS A FORM OF THE MARK OF THE BEAST.
So if it looks like a
rat, squeaks like a rat and smells like a rat – guess what, it may be white
but it is still a
rat! In other words Christians, brothers and
sisters, it doesn’t have to be the
actual ‘Mark of the Beast’ of Revelation 13 to
be warned off it, it only has to smell like the
“mark” and as Christians we have an obligation under God
to refuse it, to resist it and even
to work against it!
So please dear
believer, whatever your thoughts on Covid are, whether you have been
supportive of global
lockdowns or resistant to them, whether you have taken a Covid
vaccine or are
resistant to one, recognise this one thing - that there are powers in the earth
right now that are using this present “crisis” to
remove your freedom through the back door
of a Covid Passport.
This “passport” is being peddled under the guise of a “pathway to
freedom” but in reality it is a direct road to tyranny and
dictatorship! If globally Christians
and Churches refuse
to raise their voices on this one issue and allow this antichrist strategy
to prevail without a
fight, then the resultant oppression of the masses will be on us and
history will be accuse us of culpable social
genocide!
