Revelation 16:1-2

If one has the mark of the Beast, he will receive the seven last plagues of God's wrath, and they are going to be horrible beyond description. It would do us well to be prepared to resist this mark because the penalty for resisting it will be far less agonizing and horrific than the penalty for accepting it. The penalty for accepting it comes from God. The penalty for resisting it comes from Satan. Whose wrath would you rather face if you happen to be in that situation? It is going to come down to a simple choice. It is not going to be complicated at all.
