Revelation 16:2

Posted by joncooper

Revelation 16:2: “And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.”

If you will notice, this judgment is directed solely against those who have taken the Mark. These people cannot be saved, because once a person takes the Mark they are lost forever. That sin cannot be forgiven.

This judgment is very direct: those who took the Mark are afflicted with “a noisome and grievous sore”. This judgment from God is personal and painful. Since this only afflicts those who took the Mark, God is drawing a line between those who are His and those who are not.
