Covid-19 vaccination programs being launched around the world open the door to new forms of identification that could lead to greater government control over daily life, Privacy International has cautioned in a new report.

As governments around the world scramble to figure out ways to allow people safe reentry into society in tandem with the Covid-19 vaccine rollouts, the alarm is being sounded against measures that may take away the rights of some all in the name of public health.

What we’ve been seeing these past several months is the discussion, testing, and implementation of Covid-19 vaccine certificates that could essentially be used to strip freedoms away from those who aren’t vaccinated.

According to RT News, a human rights NGO has warned that such a system could lead to a “Global Identity Document” used for all aspects of life. It’s even been reported that Spain will create a “registry” for those who refuse the covid vaccine and share this registry with the EU.

Although the health minister of Spain – Salvador Illa – claims it “will not be public” the article goes on to state (and rightfully so) that “the fact that it will be shared with other EU countries may lead to a ban on travel for those who refuse the drug.”

Here in the US, Los Angeles has already begun to issue digital vaccine verifications that “could one day become a ‘vaccine passport’ that would be required for such activities as airline travel and live concerts.”

The article from DailyMail goes on to say that the initiative is meant to ensure people follow-up in the future for subsequent shots “but the digital receipt could also be used ‘to prove to airlines, to prove to schools, to prove to whoever needs it,’ that a person has been vaccinated, Healthvana CEO Ramin Bastani told Bloomberg.”

However “critics fear it marks the emergence of a vaccine surveillance state, where digital ‘passports’ are required for everything from flying on a plane to going to the movies.”

This is the exact thing I, as well as many others, have been talking about for the better part of 2020. With everything going on as of late, bible believers can clearly see the stage is being set for the tribulation period.

The bible is clear in Revelation 13:16-17 about what’s coming and with news like this from secular sources, it’s becoming increasingly clear what’s actually in the realm of possibility.

He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name”

Revelation 13:16-17

What many deemed as conspiracy theory and misinformation is coming to fruition right before their eyes. If you think this is a bit far-fetched, I’ve also touched on a November 26th article from Israel National News that does a great job to show the general mindset concerning this issue.

In the article, Israeli Health Ministry Director Hezy Levy stated citizens can’t be forced to take the vaccine but can essentially be coerced to do so through a variety of means – which has been the point I’ve been addressing for several months now.

Commentator Mike Cernovich in response then wrote, “Government won’t force you to take vaccine. Amazon will. Airlines will. Banks will. You won’t be able to buy, sell, or trade without the vaccine.

This bears such an uncanny resemblance to what’s written about in Revelation 13:16-17 that it’s as if these people crack open a bible first thing in the morning to see what they could copy. If you weren’t paying attention before, now’s a good time to do so.

Although I do not believe this vaccine or this digital health passport technology is the mark of the beast, as it comes out during the tribulation, I’ve made it clear that it may very well be a shadow of that system. For the believer in Christ, these are exciting times as we see our redemption draws near!

 

Covid vaccine certificates could lead to ‘global identity document’ used for all aspects of life, human rights NGO warns

 

From RT: In its analysis, the UK-based human rights group said that vaccination cards and “immunity” passports being issued by some governments could pave the way for “digital identity schemes” and other forms of ID.

While countries like the UK insist that such documents are simply used to keep a record of vaccinations and remind people when they need to receive a second dose of the drug, Privacy International detailed how the seemingly benign cards, which on their face appear “necessary,” could evolve into something quite different.

The group said that if vaccines ever become a requirement, or are used to grant certain privileges, there becomes a need to “verify” any related documents, essentially turning the card into a “pass.”

And that’s when it becomes an identity document. And once you have multiple uses (e.g. access to services) in multiple domains (i.e. public sector, private sector), in multiple countries (i.e. travel), then we are approaching a global identity document needed to live your life.

According to the organization, such “function creep” could be harnessed by authorities to roll out a digital ID that can be used for law enforcement, counter-terrorism, and immigration – areas that typically fall outside the scope of public health. Read More
