And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice,
If any man worship the beast and his image,... Revelation 14:9
Q: What was the IMAGE of Christ?
A: ...lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God...
2 Corinthians 4:4
Q: How was that IMAGE Reflected?
A: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Philippians 2:8
Q: What would Lucifer's Counterfeit IMAGE entail?
A: Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.. Ephesians 2:2
The IMAGE of Christ was Reflected in Obedience
The IMAGE of the Beast is therefore Reflected in Disobedience
II. [Times & Laws]
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws... Daniel 7:25
Q: Whose Law?
A: Obviously God's Law
Q: What Law of God deals with Time?
A: The 4th Commandment--Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work:...But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work,.... Exodus 20:8-10
That Little Horn of Daniel (same power as the Beast in Revelation) thinks to change God's Law dealing with time--attempting transferring the solemnity of the 7th day Sabbath to another day (obviously Sunday by Law--since that's what most of "Christendom" has done internally already among themselves).
Side Note-- Tree Lesson:
Q: Who picked the tree to refrain from eating in the Garden of Eden--God or your first parents?....
Q:....so too who picked what day of the week (established at Creation For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Ex.20:11) to keep Holy---God or man?
III. [The Mark of the Beast]
Behold,
the LORD maketh the earth empty,
and maketh it waste,
and turneth it upside down....
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof;
because
they have transgressed the laws,
changed the ordinance,
broken the everlasting covenant. Isaiah 24:1,5
Q: What Law has the earth come together to transgress?
A: Obviously God's Law
Q: What ordinance has been changed?
A: Obviously the 4th Commandment [see section II above]
Q: How have they Broken the Everlasting Covenant?
A: By disconnecting Justification (Grace/Forgiveness) from Sanctification (Holiness/Obedience).
--They want the Grace but not the Holiness.
--They want the Forgiveness but not the obedience.
Side Note-- Lesson from the Fiery Furnace & Lion's Den:
These 2 stories in Daniel go hand in hand.
The IMAGE set up would Require Disobedience by False Worship. It resulted in Daniel's 3 friends to face persecution in the Fiery Furnace.
Then Daniel is forbid from WORSHIP of God publicly. It resulted in facing persecution in the Lion's Den.
--So too will the Mark of the Beast entail setting up a False Day of Worship Globally by Laws of Man and forbid honoring God's Sabbath (likely through mandated work).
Remember a few years back when the IMF & World Bank told Greece if they wanted a bailout due to their economic crises they would have to go to a 6 day work week. (Greece that time said no).
BUT REMEMBER--there is obviously some sort of Global Economic Collapse that transfers the economic system into a system where the government can control buying and selling.
-?-Could the world's solution be a 6 day work week? And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark... Revelation 13:7
The Mark of the Beast not only Codifies into Law a Counterfeit Global Holy Day but attempts to Force you into Breaking God's Holy Day.
*They can't get everyone on the planet to attend a Christian church on Sunday---but IF they use other Laudato Si' style arguments for it--they could single out and identify those who refuse to work on the real Sabbath as extremists, spreaders of misinformation or conspiracy theorists as well as people who pose a threat to others on the planet.
Q: Sound Familiar?
Closing Thoughts
***It's called the MARK OF THE BEAST.
Q: Has anyone listened to the Beast Institution?
It has told you what it wants to do..the Beast Institution has spoken through Laudato Si'.... It says it's carrot stick to the world to gain cooperation will be tinted green.
From Laudato Si' we read "Care for nature is part of a lifestyle which includes the capacity for living together and communion....This same gratuitousness inspires us to love 
and accept the wind, the
sun and the clouds, even though we cannot control them. In this sense,
we can speak of a “universal fraternity”.....social love moves us to devise larger strategies to halt environmental
degradation and to encourage a “culture of care” which permeates all of
society. When we feel that God is calling us to intervene with others in
these social dynamics, we should realize that this too is part of our
spirituality, which is an exercise of charity and, as such, matures and
sanctifies us.....On Sunday, our participation in the Eucharist has special importance.
Sunday, like the Jewish Sabbath, is meant to be a day which heals our
relationships with God, with ourselves, with others and with the world.
Sunday is the day of the Resurrection, the “first day” of the new
creation, whose first fruits are the Lord’s risen humanity, the pledge
of the final transfiguration of all created reality. It also proclaims
“man’s eternal rest in God”. In this way, Christian spirituality incorporates the value of relaxation and festivity...The law of weekly rest forbade work on the seventh day, ... Rest opens our eyes to
the larger picture and gives us renewed sensitivity to the rights of
others. And so the day of rest, centred on the Eucharist, sheds it light
on the whole week, and motivates us to greater concern for nature......"
***All this Green Nonsense in Laudato Si' stems from Francis of Assisi.
Francis of Assisi is the patron saint of birds. INTERESTING: And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.... Revelation 18:2...unclean with the paganism of mother earth worship wrapped up in the modern environmental movement for the sophisticated modern man....from Laudato Si' we read "In calling to mind the figure of Saint Francis of Assisi, we come to
realize that a healthy relationship with creation is one dimension of
overall personal conversion, which 
entails the recognition of our
errors, sins, faults and failures, and leads to heartfelt repentance and
desire to change..... the importance of
such conversion for achieving reconciliation with creation: “To achieve
such reconciliation, we must examine our lives and acknowledge the ways
in which we have harmed God’s creation through our actions and our
failure to act. We need to experience a conversion, or change of heart”."
***NOT a Chip:
The notion that the Mark of the Beast is a chip is a dangerous one---
for with current events, like Sweden pushing implanting chips in the name of COVID--people can be easily misled and convinced the Chip nonsense as the Mark of the Beast as correct.
They base this fallacy in interpretation of the verse And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand... Revelation 14:9.
--The Forehead simply means they believe in it.
--The Hand simply means they go along so as to be able to buy and sell.
Side Note - Notice the followers of the Lamb of God have a seal in their foreheads And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. Revelation 9:4.....now notice: those who follow the beast are marked in their foreheads and those who follow the Lamb of God have a seal in the forehead. It's because those on the Lamb's side and the Beasts side each believe they are following right. They believe in their side.
BUT no where do we read of God's people sealed in the hand unlike the Beasts side. That's because no one on God's side, which is being persecuted globally at that time, will fake believing by going along to get along. But some on the other side do so as to be able to buy and sell.
*This is all Prophecy involving symbols and inverse relationships.
***Sabbath in the New World:
For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, .... And it shall come to pass,
--that from one new moon to another,
--and from one sabbath to another,
shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. Isaiah 66:22,23
Q: When Isaiah referred to the Sabbath in the new world--what day was he referring?
A: Obviously the 7th day, for any Jewish reader/hearer at the time would know what he meant.
Q: But why worship God every Sabbath for eternity?
A: To honor Him as Creator, as at the first, for He obviously will recreate the New World in 7 days again but this time you get to watch.
Side Note- "New Moon": means month to month.
Q: Once a Month also?
A: Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as
crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the
middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood
the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit
every month. Revelation 22:1,2
So you obviously will gain access to the tree of life like your first 
parents and partake-and give thanks-monthly. A REMINDER for eternity that you are the Creation and God is the Creator. What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time. Nahum 1:9
