I'm not into exchanging truth for tolerance, sorta like saying homosexuality is an alternative life style, or transgender men are really females
It's my opinion its deception, the focus is on (Dispensationalism)
Not only is it deception, it's a lie!
You started this over again with
"It wont be forced, but willfully received."
Having started it again you are communicating that this is your intended point of contention.
You have been shown that it is grammatically correct to call it forced if you are told you must receive the mark or be killed.
Arguing for the word
SHOULD is not persuasive because the original Greek word here for
cause is just one word and not two.
The ESV reads.
And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak (does that mean he might not speak?) and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. If you say that he might not kill them then you must also say the might not even speak. It is a strain at an attempt to change or ignore intended meaning that is obvious to anyone.
The Greek word is poiēsē and means "cause" in this context, The KJV using two English words "Should Cause" is more of an old English style of saying things and one cannot hinge an argument on the word Should. Your only argument must be based on the meaning of the Greek word poiese, and "to cause" or "should cause" or "might cause" all say the same thing which is that the "Image of the beast which has been given life is the One behind the execution orders, or carrying out of the orders. That is was this image of the beast given life and ability to speak that is the one who would cause them to be killed if they did not worship and receive the mark.
Returning to your point of contention
"It wont be forced, but willfully received."
Those who receive the mark will be damned to the Lake of Fire.
9And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand,
10he also will drink the wine of God’s wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
11And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name.”
So I agree that they will have to willfully receive it.
It is common sense that not everyone receives the mark or no one would be saved would they? It is understood that it will be some kind of law or rule that goes forth from this evil administration that all men are required to do this not that all men are eventually branded.
Yes they will be forced, by fear of death to make the choice and they will suffer the consequences if they let this forced coercion cause them to love their life too much.
