I’m still getting over New Years Eve.
Headache!
Heartburn!!
Upset Stomach!!!
Diarrhea!!!!
Wow, what a party!
The following is Part B of AWAKE; XIII:
Where Does it All Lead?
This posting concludes the weekly Awake You Who Sleep series I wrote. I sincerely hope, that in some small way, I have been able to open some eyes and minds as to what is going on and where our country and the world is headed, and to help you realize that we are living in the last days.
It is rather lengthy, but well worth the time to read it all.
Smart card acceptance in the
The
To increase use, card makers are forming alliances with companies that are closer to consumers. Micro Card Technologies Inc. supplies cards to Copicard Inc., which worked with the
The average American who has a dozen pieces of plastic in their pocket probably doesn't even know what a smart card is," said Nicolas Samaras, a technology analyst at Dataquest Inc. in San Jose, Calif. technology analyst at Dataquest Inc. in San Jose, Calif.
a.) Unlike today's financial cards, the smart card doesn't need a magnetic stripe on the back.
b.) Instead, it's equipped with a wiry silicon chip, often displayed at left center but sometimes hidden in the plastic. (Smart cards may also have embossed account numbers, holograms, graphics and photos on the front or back.)
c.) Like a bank card, the smart card is slipped into a computer. Then the owner enters a four - or five-digit ID number and uses the card to make purchases, convey information, or both.
d.) The card can hold three pages worth of typewritten data, compared to one line of type for a magnetic-stripe card. That means several accounts could be loaded onto one smart card, said Diane R. Wetherington, president of smart card systems at American Telephone & Telegraph Co. For example, the same card that checks out library books and buys clothes on credit could give an emergency-room clerk a patient's blood type insurance data and doctor's name. Each account would have a separate ID number, so the librarian couldn't see your blood type.
He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark of his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. [Revelation 13:16-17]
Mark of the Beast?
The people developing this technology are necessarily conspirators purposely developing a system they know the Antichrist will use for his own wicked purposes. These are men and women who are developing what, to the natural eye, are brilliant ideas for the world's future. So, what's so bad about these technologies. They improve our lives ... right?
David Chaum, a leading cryptographer, believes that an identification-based system could lay the groundwork for a future dictatorship. As a Jew, Chaum is sensitive to the memory of how government records enabled the Nazis to systematically identify Jews. He is also concerned that competition and self-interest could be causing many decision-makers in this new technology to miss the broader social consequences of their decisions.
One critic calls them "little brother in your wallet." David Banisar of the
President Bill Clinton proposed a health plan where there is a provision for a national health identification card, and eventually, a state-of-the-art, tamper-proof numbering system. This probably means an implantation device in the head, arm or somewhere on the body. No one will receive health coverage without a number. We are also headed for a cashless society - first by credit card, and later by a laser implantation beneath the skin. The European Community has already planned for this.
One concern about the smart card is privacy. Even though manufacturers are confident that accounts on the same card would remain separate, some are still unsettled that so much personal information could be stored on one little computer chip. What if the librarian could look up someone's doctor bills? And, asked Richard Civilles, program director at Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility, could using smart cards as national IDs give the government more control over citizens at employment agencies or highway checkpoints? What if the government denied a job or benefits to someone based on personal tidbits gleaned from the card?
But manufacturers are optimistic that consumers will warm up to smart cards as they become more prevalent, said Amy Wight Eckel, product manager for AT&T smart cards. "It looks and feels like a credit card," she said. "People already know how to use it."
The Coming
Two of the principal mechanisms by which the rulers of 20th century police states maintained their control over their people were the File and the Internal Passport. The government kept a cumulative file (called the Dangan in Communist China) on every individual's performance and attitudes from school years through adult employment, and the internal passport was an identification that had to be presented to authorities for permission to travel within the country, even a few miles away from home or job.
These two methods of personal surveillance -- efficient watchdogs that prevented any emergence of freedom -- required an army of bureaucrats fortified by a Gestapo, a Stasi or a KGB, plus the ability to commandeer an unlimited supply of paper and file folders. Technology has now made the task of building personal files on every citizen, and tracking our actions and movements, just as easy as logging onto the Internet.
Unknown to most Americans, coordinated plans are well underway to give the Federal Government the power to input personal information on all Americans onto a government database. The computer will record our school, business, medical, financial, and personal activities, and track our movements as we travel about the
Of course, all that information on a government database means the end of privacy as we know it. Daily actions we all take for granted will henceforth be recorded, monitored, tracked, and contingent on showing The Card.
Legislative authority for these dramatic changes in what we endearingly call the American way of life was buried in several bills passed by Republicans and signed by Clinton, including the 1996 Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (especially Section 656(b)), the 1996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reform Act (known as Welfare reform), the 1998 Child Support Performance and Incentive Act (known as Deadbeat Dads), and the 1993 Brady Bill.
The Immigration Act prohibits the use of state driver's licenses after
It's significant that the law orders "consultation" with the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators. AAMVA has long urged using driver's licenses, with Social Security numbers and digital fingerprinting, as a de facto national ID card that would enable the government to track everyone's movements throughout
The welfare reform act requires that, in order to receive federal welfare funds, states must collect Social Security numbers from "commercial driver's license" applicants. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997, under the pretense of making "technical corrections" to the welfare act, deleted the word "commercial," thereby applying the requirement to all driver's license applicants.
The Deadbeat Dads act established a federal "instant check" New Hires Directory. Employers are now required to "screen" every new employee or job applicant against the new government database of child support order obliges.
Under the Brady Act, starting Dec. 1, no one will be allowed to buy a gun without an "instant background check" with various government databases. (Even though this violates the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights of the Constitution of the
The United States Privacy Act provides that "It shall be unlawful for any Federal, State or local government agency to deny to any individual any right, benefit, or privilege provided by law because of such individual's refusal to disclose his Social Security account number."
One of the methods to be used to enslave every man, woman and child on the face of the earth will be a new money system that will be introduced taking us into a "The Cashless Society". Sadly, many people today find it difficult to believe that those days will ever come or if it does how they can be hurt by it.
“Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days.” [James 5:1-3]
The transition from the beneficial uses of technology to that of the Beast spoken of in Revelation 13 will happen quickly. Prophecy teachers have been speaking these words for many, many years. It is only just now, during your lifetime, that the prophecies are literally being fulfilled. You would be enlightened if you were to turn to the Word of God particularly the prophecies in the books of Daniel and Revelation and understand that these are no idle words of a mere man but these are words of the living God.
Turn back to God. Start once again to obey His Laws. And don’t forget, “Look up for your salvation draweth nigh!”
ADDENDUM:
Yes people, we are being herded like sheep to the slaughter into what will be the absolute worst “TOTALITARIAN POLICE STATE” that the world has ever seen. We have already entered into a surveillance society, where our every move is tracked and monitored. Every place you look, out in public, you will see cameras (the all seeing eye) up on buildings, on poles, in trees, etc. Enter any building and you will see cameras, they are even in places you can’t see, hidden in ceilings, walls and even in everyday objects such as clocks, lamps, picture frames, mirrors, you name it.
I know that there are many of you who don’t believe it, but there are surveillance cameras way out in space that are powerful enough that they can “see” a dime on the ground in a parking lot. These “spies in the sky” have been watching us for years. Every cell phone made after the year 2000 has an embedded locater chip, so that if need be, the user can be tracked as to his/her exact location. Every car you buy, since 2000-2001, has a GPS device in it along with an engine “Kill switch” and door locking switch, both of which can be operated by a signal from a satellite in space., thus disabling your vehicle and keeping you trapped inside until police or government agents can get to you.
Every telephone call you make or receive, every two way radio conversation you have, every email you send or receive, every entry you make to a blog or website is monitored, key stroke by key stroke. Even private conversations you have within your home or place of business can be monitored. The government has the ability to download everything you have on your home computer WITHOUT even having to enter your house. All of your television watching habits are monitored. The government knows every video or DVD you have ever rented and they know every book, tape, VHS, DVD that you have ever checked out of a library.
Then, as if all this weren’t bad enough, even the business world has you under surveillance. When ever you make a purchase on line or at a store, and you pay for it by check or credit card, these purchases are tracked. Believe it or not, but banks, stores and law enforcement agencies can put together a whole dossier on your life, just by using the information gleaned from your canceled checks, credit card purchasing history, by the types of products you buy and the frequency which you purchase certain products. They are even considering placing radio frequency chips into every item you by; clothes, furniture, personal items, etc., so that these items can be tracked from the time they leave the manufacturer, all the way to your home.
All of this surveillance, monitoring, eavesdropping and invasion of privacy will only grow worse. One must bear in mind the Hegelian Dialectic. This theory states that to gain total control over a group of people, a state, nation or the whole world population, it must be done incrementally (slowly) so that the general public is unaware of what is happening to them (much like placing a frog into a kettle of cold water and slowly heating it to a boil, the frog will just sit there unaware that he is about to be cooked). The second part of the Hegelian Dialectic requires that the person or group that wishes to gain control over a populace, must first create the “solution” to a problem (that does not exist), and have this solution in place and ready to go. Then after you have created your solution, you then either cause the situation or problem or allow the situation to occur so that you will then be able to put your solution into action. Let me give you two examples of what I am talking about:
First the government, through the military and law enforcement agencies, creates and develops various surveillance techniques, (i.e., tracking, camera, audio, wiretapping, GPS, etc.). Then you constantly start putting out stories and “leaks” about terrorist activity to start to raise the fear factor in people. Then you allow small scale terrorist acts to occur (the 1993 bombing of the
A second area of using the Hegelian Dialectic to gain even more control over the populace, to get the people to willingly allow themselves to be tracked, again using fear, those in charge either deliberately kidnap children for sexual exploitation, or they can use entrapment to lure others into stalking children using the internet or other means. Or they can even allow a large number of children (over a period of time) to be abducted, abused and then murdered, all to instill fear into parents and children, so that when the time is right, they will be eager to have a biometric tracking chip inserted into their bodies, (then if they or their children are ever abducted, they can be located easily). If that don’t work to get everybody willing to take the chip, you set up a fear of having ones identity stolen. The government along with the banking industry will allow some peoples personal information, such as bank PIN numbers, bank account numbers, credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, etc. to be “stolen” and unauthorized withdrawals made from their accounts. Then the government makes paper money with all kind of “safe guards” claiming that it cannot be counterfeited, but a month or two later they claim that there is millions of dollars in counterfeit money (the new bills) discovered in circulation. Then the banks develop “Smart Cards” with all kinds of biometric info of each customer, (the people rush to get these new cards) but then the banks and government tell the people that these cards are being counterfeited, so what is the obvious solution to these problems? Do away with all cash and credit cards (smart cards) and go to an all digital cashless system and require each person to have an injectable biometric locater chip placed under their skin. This chip will contain ALL of their personal information; bank account numbers, social security numbers, medical history and insurance numbers, date of birth, driver’s license number, everything that pertains to you will be on that chip and it can all be accessed by the various government agencies, stores and banks, just by having you wave your hand over a scanner.
What is truly sad about all of this is that the majority of the population has been so dumbed down, so conditioned to all of this that they will gladly accept it all. And with all of the “feel good”, charismatic, holy laughter, being slain in the spirit, visualize it, speak it and claim it health and wealth, new age ecumenical, politically correct, all inclusive crap that has been fed to a spiritually sick population, by their so-called Christian ministers, pastors and priests, people will follow blindly into the apostate One World Religion.
I, and others like me, can only warn you NOT TO TAKE THE CHIP! We can only warn you to get out of the blasphemous houses of sin and corruption that call themselves churches. Seek the TRUTH for yourselves. If it doesn’t square with Holy Scripture then it cannot be of God. If you are a member of an Orthodox Church, and you find your Patriarch and Bishops climbing into bed with
God gave you FREE WILL, the TRUTH has been placed before you, but in the end, the choice is yours to make, Jesus Christ and salvation or the Antichrist and eternal damnation.
