....till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads....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: Rev. 7:3/13:6
"The two opposing marks are to be received in the forehead, which is
a symbol of the mind and affections, since the forehead is the seat of the intellectual faculties.
--The seal of God can be received nowhere else. He accepts of no obedience but that which is from the heart.
--But the beast seems to be more accommodating. If you do not choose his mark in the forehead, you may receive it in your right hand.
If you do not believe and love his institutions, you may obey them outwardly - carry out his requirements with your right hand, which is a symbol of outward actions.
*The Devil does not care for sincerity of heart in his service."
