Identification chips have been proposed for various reasons, including security and medical identification. But are implanted computer chips the mark of the Beast mentioned in the book of Revelation?
Answer:
As a church, the reply we give you comes from a biblical point of view, as opposed to a scientific perspective.

By contrast, the way computer chips are being used and being spoken of in the United States is merely to identify its citizens.
Fearing the mark of the Beast, some ask us if they should refuse any mandated implanting of a data chip (which, for example, the U.S. government could conceivably require in the name of security). The mark of the Beast doesn't appear to be something that God's people can accidentally, or unwittingly, receive (for example, a simple I.D. that later becomes the mark of the Beast). It will be a mark associating one with the Beast power that members of God's Church will knowingly avoid.
