We reserve a few minutes Sunday morning to suggest news, or trends, that seem to be predicted by a literal, futurist reading of the Bible.
We are careful to use recognized, reliable sources for news. There is a lot of sensationalism surrounding unfulfilled Bible prophecy, and we don’t want to add to it.
We’re not saying the things we report are the fulfillment of prophecy – only that they are the things you’d expect by holding a Bible in one hand, and a newspaper in the other.
In the Revelation of Jesus Christ, the apostle John saw that one day the citizens of the world would be identified by, and conduct all their business by, something in or on their forehead or their hand.
The prophecy seemed ridiculous – probably a metaphor – for centuries.
Not anymore. There are any number of biometric technologies fully developed that could be implemented globally pretty much overnight.
What’s that you’re asking? How can facial recognition work when we are all wearing masks?
An article posted on biometricsupdate.com was titled, Innovatrics adds mask detection to face biometrics platform, SmartCone launches COVID-tracking solution.
Excerpts:
Innovatrics has added a mask detection capability to its biometric facial recognition platform SmartFace which also detects if the mask is properly worn, covering the wearer’s nose.
The company says the new feature… can send instant notifications or deny entry to people without masks. The new SmartFace feature is intended for use at access points for venues like production plants, office buildings, shopping malls, and hospitals, enabling easy enforcement of safety and security measures.
What’s that you’re asking? How can I be sure my ride-share driver is wearing a mask?
Ride sharing companies Uber, Didi and Ola are all using facial recognition and automatic face mask detection to check their drivers, and may extend the scans to passengers, the Sydney Morning Herald reports.
An Uber spokesperson told the Herald that the company has already built a capability to check riders for masks in places where they are mandatory. The system involves riders who are reported by a driver to have taken a ride without a mask will be asked for a selfie to confirm they are wearing one before being allowed to book another ride. According to the report, the mask detection feature will be rolled out to the U.S. and Canada this month, and then to Latin America.
Have you heard of Symp2Pass?
SmartCone Technologies is planning to launch a comprehensive biometric solution for web processes to support safe returns to work, school and play, the company has announced.
Users can check themselves and family members for COVID-19 symptoms through any mobile phone, tablet, computer or smart device, with a medically recognized, researched and proven process… The solution integrates unsupervised AI learning to continually improve at identifying patterns within the data it receives. Geolocation data from users is continually mapped, and updated based on the position of safe, suspected, or infected people.
Symp2pass will be made globally available in the coming weeks, and will be integrated in a COVID-19 SmartCone Kiosk.
“This pandemic is causing fear and doubt in millions globally,” notes SmartCone CEO Jason Lee. “SmartCone’s COVID-19 Task Force with the new ‘back to work, school and play’ process by Symp2pass will give people peace of mind knowing they are taking the best precautions available to ensure safe public spaces to co-exist.”
“Symp2pass will support every person to continually monitor their own health and use their personal map to find those safe spaces to visit,” says Idea Capital Safe Spaces Corp. CEO Richard Harris.
“Businesses will identify themselves as Symp2pass sites and use the SmartCone Kiosk as the monitoring system ensuring they remain a safe space.”

Here is something to consider: Would these companies be investing millions or billions of dollars in a technology that won’t be needed if we were ever going to return to normal?
COVID19 is not one of the pestilences we read about in the Bible. Those occur during the Great Tribulation.
If it has a sinister, Satanic, spiritual purpose, it is that it is pushing the world population towards a global, digital biometric system. It is the kind of society futurists have been predicting since the apostle John wrote the Revelation.
We believe the resurrection and rapture of the church is imminent. It could happen any moment; nothing needs to happen before it. It will happen before the Tribulation.
Jesus will come, in the clouds, and raise the dead believers of the Church Age. He will transform the bodies of living believers to glorified, resurrection bodies. We will join Him in Heaven while the earth endures one final seven-year campaign of severe evangelism.
Are you ready for the rapture? If not, Get ready; Stay ready; Keep looking up.
Ready or not, Jesus is coming!
