The Beast System Rising - Digital IDs and Global Control in Light of Bible Prophecy

Hello, folk! We are living in the last days, where, as Paul wrote in 2 Thessalonians 2:7 “the mystery of lawlessness is already at work.”

This evil force, driven by Satan and his demonic forces, promotes rebellion against God’s moral order, that is influencing society through things like subtle pushes for systems that centralise power, monitor citizens, and erode God-given freedoms. Paul’s words show this lawlessness was active even in the first century and continues today. Yet, the Holy Spirit, working through the Church, restrains its full power until the rapture.

As a watchman ministry rooted in Pre-Tribulation rapture and premillennial dispensationalism, we watch for signs of the coming one-world system under the Antichrist (Revelation 13, NKJV). Scripture hints that the Antichrist may come from Syria, linked to the "king of the North" (Daniel 11:40) and the Assyrian roots of end-times prophecy (Isaiah 10:5; Micah 5:5). Recent events, like Reuters' report on Syria's new parliament, overwhelmingly Sunni and male after a controlled vote, seem to set the stage for Ezekiel 38–39's coalition against Israel.

Yet, born-again Christians won't know his identity, as we'll be raptured before he rises. He will bring false peace to Israel amid attacks from those nations, then set up his image in the rebuilt temple, the abomination of desolation (Daniel 9:27).

Recent headlines show digital IDs, like the UK’s Brit Card, paving the way for global control. These systems, linked to globalist companies and banks, hint at a “world ledger” this very much echoes the mark of the beast (Revelation 13:16–18). This is not the mark, since that comes after the rapture, but it is Scripture unfolding, showing the mystery of lawlessness at work (2 Thessalonians 2:7).

Jesus said, “Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near” (Luke 21:28). While the world observes these signs and remains ignorant or fearful of what is happening, we, as born-again believers, see them as a foreshadowing of the coming King, Jesus.

So let us expose these schemes and arm ourselves with God’s truth, staying vigilant for Christ’s return!

The UK's Digital ID Push: A Test Case for Global Control
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced a "BritCard" digital ID wallet in September 2025, starting with veteran cards (as of 17th October 2025) and making it mandatory for work checks by 2029.

It is pitched as anti-immigration, it is about control, not borders, but listen in: It's linked to your money, health, everything. Governments could say, "Access freely... or not."

• Public Resistance Ignored: A petition hit 3 million signatures in days—unprecedented! Parliament dismissed it on October 2, saying it's "for everyone's benefit."
• Everyday Impact: By November 18, 2025, even registered entities like churches must comply with director IDs. Carrot (ease) turns to stick (coercion).

From a Watchman ethos: This is "function creep" into health (NHS database), finances, travel. As watchmen, we see Revelation 13:16-17: No one buys or sells without the mark. Not the mark yet, but the stage is set.

Tony Blair Institute and Larry Ellison: Globalist Architects
This traces back to Tony Blair's globalist playbook. Blair tried digital IDs in 2009 (cost taxpayers £5 billion, failed). His Tony Blair Institute (TBI, formed 2017 from faith/governance groups) influences Starmer's government.

• Blair's Ties: Key Labour figures connect to TBI, which lobbies for AI-driven "collective data" via the National Health Service (NHS) - your medical, biometric, and life history in one hackable spot.
• Larry Ellison's Billions: Oracle co-founder Ellison (net worth $200B+) donated £257 million ($335M USD) to TBI since 2021. At the 2023 World Government Summit, discussions highlighted super AI needing governments to "collectivize data." TBI reports soon pushed digital IDs for this.
• Oracle's Role: Holds £700M UK contracts; firms like Palantir (Peter Thiel's data analytics) mine NHS info. UK as "test case" for AI surveillance, echoing China's social credit system.

Scripture warns of a “vile person” who rises by deception to seize power (Daniel 11:21). Today’s globalist systems, like digital IDs, aren’t the Antichrist but are building his future control (2 Thessalonians 2:3–4). This “mystery of lawlessness” is already at work, preparing the way!

Bank of International Settlements (BIS): Nazi Roots and the "World Ledger" Dream
Digital IDs link to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) via the BIS - "a bank made of 60 central banks dictating global policy."

• Dark History: Formed 1930 for WWI reparations, but supported Hitler! Funded by Nazi circles like the "Friends of the Führer." Reichsbank heads (e.g., Hjalmar Schacht, Emil Puhl) were founders. BIS laundered Holocaust victims' gold (from teeth!) and handed Czechoslovakia's gold to Hitler pre-invasion. A "continuation of 1930s globalism pursuits."
• Today’s Agenda: BIS pushes tokenisation - everything (assets, people) as digital tokens on a "world ledger." "Soulbound tokens" (blockchain tags) bind you indelibly. BlackRock joins for tokenised economies. 130+ countries pilot CBDCs; IMF concepts enable cross-border control.
• Tie to IDs: Digital IDs enable this "new economic system." Programmable money: Spend only as approved (carbon limits? Faith compliance?).

Scripture screams: Revelation 13:17 - economic exclusion. This is beast system prep: Categorise everyone on a ledger, like Nazi registries evolved into AI.

Globalist Loyalty: Davos Over Nations
European elites prioritise Davos (WEF) agendas. Starmer has echoed allegiance to global forums over Westminster. ECB head Christine Lagarde eyes displacing the US dollar. The WEF’s discussions outline a new order with three nation powers (US, China, EU) - Europe's path? Keep your eye on Europe! "Totalitarianism" for economic survival. Immigration chaos (in Big cities but also putting a strain on their housing systems, here in Glasgow) weakens Judeo-Christian foundations, creating vacuums filled by opposing forces (Islam, secularism), united against biblical truth. This shows small birth pangs! (Matthew 24:8).

The Silence of the Church: A Famine of the Word
Amos 8:11: Famine of hearing God's Word. Many pulpits are ignoring these signs, pushing "happy emotional Christianity" over prophecy. As remnant believers travel far for solid teaching, hungering for meat, not milk (Hebrews 5:12-14).

Our ministry's role: Be watchmen! Pre-Trib hope: Church raptured before full wrath (1 Thess 4:16-17). But warn now – having a busy family with kids with disabilities hasn't stopped me; God's strength in weakness (2 Cor 12:9).

Call to Action: Resist Wisely, Trust Fully

1. Pray and Discern: James 5:16 - Fervent prayer avails much. Study Revelation with a literal Bible, KJV, NKJV or ESV.
2. Practical Steps: Review petitions (Big Brother Watch) we share them on X; contact MSPs. Build community networks, join us a www.bornagainchristians.faith
3. Share the Gospel: Chaos is opportunity.
4. Support Remnant Voices: Seek out prophecy teachers on YouTube/Rumble; equip your local flock. Visit https://bornagainchristians.faith/faith-resources/preachers

Hope in the Blessed Hope
Peter here: As a carer for three disabled adults with no support, this depresses me – but the Word says, Titus 2:13: "Looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ."

Maranatha - Come, Lord Jesus!
