Is this the Mark? - Bill Koenig

Note from Bill:

I just pulled this together. The new "finger vein" technology, the prophecy in Revelation 13:16-17 pertaining to the Mark of the Beast, and a dictionary definition of "mark" may reveal the Mark in our day.

Biometric ATM gives cash via 'finger vein' scan (CNN): click here for the article

The ATM runs on the latest in "finger vein" technology, with an infrared light detecting a unique pattern of micro-veins.

"This is a substantially more reliable technique than using fingerprints," Peter Jones, Hitachi's head of security and solutions in Europe, told CNN.

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; 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.

One of Merriam-Webster Dictionary's definitions of "mark" is: "a distinguishing trait or quality."

Furthermore, "trait" in biology involves genes and characteristics of organisms.

Could a distinguishing trait become the Mark?

A person could be ordered to digit-scan the micro-veins in a finger on their right hand to register their personal mark, which would be based on their "distinguishing trait," as a requirement to buy and sell. .
