Coming up today on a new beginning,

Pastor Greg Laurie points out from Revelation how the great tribulation

will change nearly everything about life here on Planet Earth.

There is coming this charismatic world leader, the anti-Christ,

who will introduce a cashless society requiring everyone to take a mark.

No one will be able to buy or sell or engage in any kind of commerce without the mark of the beast.

This is the day when the lost are found. This is the day for a moment again.

Revelation grace has bleached the strong.

But can you get around the angels of the day?

This is the day the great will I begin.

Some might think a cashless society might be kind of handy, just scan and scoot.

But today on a new beginning, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how the mark

represents allegiance to the anti-Christ.

It's something far more consequential than an alternate form of identification.

In effect, it identifies this with the powers of darkness.

It's a hard-hitting message, and one of the studies our listeners requested the most over the past 12 months.

We're kicking off our series of top 10 messages today.
