After I got rebuked by these Nairalanders, I asked God to confirm His Word, for a second witness, but Nathan Mattera's comment is what I got as I was scrolling through the comment section of a social media website.

Nathan wrote the response below to another member who had asked, "what if I take the mark and later remove it?

Nathan Mattera wrote:
The Bible says anyone who takes the mark of the beast not, who keeps the mark of the beast.
Once you have it, you are done for. God did not tell us to be creative with it. We must not have anything to do with the new system at all in anyway shape or form.


Revelation 14:9-11
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

NB
(This is taking a lot of guts to add, but I did dream that we were all running. Everybody. Politicians and all. In the dream, politicians were at the forefront of the race and we're headed for the sea. Everyone was running towards the sea. The last ship had left but that didn't stop anybody. We are ran into the sea trying to catch the boats passing)

Thanks and God bless.

A kind reminder:

King James Version
Revelation 14:9-11
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

Message Bible version:

Revelation 14:

9-11 A third Angel followed, shouting, warning, “If anyone worships the Beast and its image and takes the mark on forehead or hand, that person will drink the wine of God’s wrath, prepared unmixed in his chalice of anger, and suffer torment from fire and brimstone in the presence of Holy Angels, in the presence of the Lamb. Smoke from their torment will rise age after age. No respite for those who worship the Beast and its image, who take the mark of its name.”

New Living Translation Bible version

Revelation 14:9-11

9 Then a third angel followed them, shouting, “Anyone who worships the beast and his statue or who accepts his mark on the forehead or on the hand 10 must drink the wine of God’s anger. It has been poured full strength into God’s cup of wrath. And they will be tormented with fire and burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and the Lamb. 11 The smoke of their torment will rise forever and ever, and they will have no relief day or night, for they have worshiped the beast and his statue and have accepted the mark of his name.

Revelation 14:9–11 — GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)

9 Another angel, a third one, followed them, and said in a loud voice, “Whoever worships the beast or its statue, whoever is branded on his forehead or his hand,
10 will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured unmixed into the cup of God’s anger. Then he will be tortured by fiery sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and the lamb.
11 The smoke from their torture will go up forever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast or its statue, or for anyone branded with its name.”
