I read a scripture the other day I need to refind, it said that we were marked as belonging to god by our faith in Jesus (as close as I can remember) it was an aha moment. If faith was a mark for Jesus then Faith in the opposite side would be the mark of the beast.
Deuteronomy 6:6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
Deuteronomy 6:8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
If you have faith in Christ, and obey God's commandments, they are a sign upon your hands and forehead. This idea of a sign upon your hands and your forehead is something found in multiple areas of the Bible. The diligent observer will find them.
So what are you saying? The Tefillin?
The old law was fulfilled those laws do not need to be followed by Christians "Tefillin are two small black boxes with black straps attached to them; Jewish men are required to place one box on their head and tie the other one on their arm ..."

The mark is a law, so any physical mark upon the skin wouldn't matter. It's simply accepting the Roman Catholic Churches law over the law of the Creator of the Universe, that is how you receive the mark of the beast.
Good thing I'm an atheist. I would hate to receive the mark.
Revelation 13:16-17 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Which could easily mean you must serve the beast, follow, obey by working with your physical or mental self.

Yeah but Nah, that's sort of possible but then goes stupid about the commandments
The 10 commandments were handed to Moses and is a Mosaic covenant, it's not the Christian covenant
You are putting laws on people, making religion the savior when Jesus ended religion and became the Saviour
There are Two Commandments, definetly not 10 for Christians
Love God and love each other
Anything else and you are confusing Judaism with Christianity
Seventh day Adventists have been getting it wrong since they started
You know, other Protestant Reformers besides the Adventists believed we had to keep the 10 Commandments, right? Like, Martin Luther. They just confused the Sabbath Day for Sunday. Which is entirely understandable in their day. Anyways, It's very clear that every single commandment has a requirement in the New Testament. Every other commandment is a moral obligation, and the Sabbath is confused for Sunday today. The idea that the 10 Commandments are simply for Jews is just an attempt by Satan to make the need for keeping the Sabbath appear less credible.

So Jesus died for nothing, you don't need him, you keep all the laws that He demanded at the sermon on the mount?
You should read the bible for yourself not let some book monkey tell you what to believe
Use your brain
The only thing satanic is that you think keeping the laws will have you with Jesus in heaven
You don't know that Jesus Himself has already completed everything for you to be with Him
You think your works, your law keeping will save you, that's satanic, that's denying Jesus, almost denying the Spirit. Thinking what you do makes you worthy
Jesus makes you worthy not keeping stupid laws

This I agree with, actually I haven't disagreed with anything you've wrote.
The rest of the thread? They're the reason I'll never be a Christian. Very few are "worthy" in their eyes. Which is fine by me, I'd rather rot in hel with my solemn beliefs than be saved because I did what I was told.
Anyways a genuine question...
If the end times is God's will and receiving the mark is enough to deny you what does that make god?

Unsurprisingly, the video in the OP gets both wrong. Then again, what can you expect from those who can't even get the identity of God right, referring to Him as Jesus, who is stated to be God's Son instead over and over in the bible. If you're already "the Son of God", you can't be the same God that you are already a son of. That's a rather blatant contradiction.
1 Timothy 6:20,21
20 Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you, turning away from the empty speeches that violate what is holy and from the contradictions of the falsely called “knowledge.” 21 By making a show of such knowledge, some have deviated from the faith.
May the undeserved kindness be with you.

So are you telling me that you never sin scattered third angel
In your day to day you don't ever sin
That you keep the whole of the law
That what Jesus taught on the "Mount" is your lifestyle
That you are so pure that you don't need Jesus, that the bible lies
Please continue to serve the law, the 10 commandments
It's people like you that make people hate the church and God.

So Scatter are you seriously telling me you don't sin
Did you read the sermon on the mount, do you seriously live according to Christs standard that was set.
Have you ever read the sermon on the mount
Again, when I read your words, you make it very clear Jesus death was useles and you deny Him. That's very dangerous
Why was Jesus death useless to you, because you don't need Him, you live the law perfectly according to you
Paul said that he didn't sin, that it was the disease of sin within him that sinned, not himself because he had God within. Jesus makes Paul perfect, not the law
You say you make yourself perfect by living according to the law, not Jesus
According to the sermon on the mount, YOU are a sinner
You are a sinner because you rely on yourself to be clean
I rely on Jesus to be clean
