Denying that Jesus is Christ. A great example is given when Jesus is arrested, and Peter ends up denying Jesus thrice, where the last time Jesus looks at him, reminding him, I told you so. Of course Peter was forgiven, this was before we was given the Comforter, guarding our tongue. A reminder that even Peter, the most beloved disciple of Jesus, was not able to keep his promise that he made him, as we all fall short of the righteousness of Jesus.
You can see it in Daniel 3 too. Where King Nebuchadnezzar made a image of gold, and wanted everyone to worship it. Where Daniels three Jewish friends did not worship the golden image, and was thrown into a furnace of fire as a result. That time the the son of God, that being Christ, came and saved them. That is them denying the mark, as far as I understand.
No, I do not. As most things in the Bible, they have a spiritual meaning. So it is a spiritual mark, like the one Cain got. Jesus is clear, he speaks in parabels, to confound the natural mind.
1 Corinthians 2
14 But the naturall man receiueth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishnesse vnto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
what will you think the mark is then???
