I think that the final beast will be more suave, debonaire and charismatic than most will be able to resist. Most will likely take the mark as if it is like free money. Not only accept it but help in the deception. Nobody's going to hell for it being forced onto them. But more like a shiny irresistible temptation. Like the fruit of the knowlege of good & evil. Genesis 3:
6, And when the woman saw that the tree
was good for food, and that it
was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make
one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
