WATCH: PERRY STONE Says This Could Be the Mark of the Beast

The prophetic minister prophesies about the possible government plan of implanting of microchips into our bodies for identification reasons, akin to the mark of the beast spoken of in Revelation. VeriChip (now re-branding PositiveID) was the only Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved human-implantable microchip. It was marketed by PositiveID, a subsidiary of Applied Digital Solutions, and it received United States FDA approval in 2004. Its manufacture and marketing were discontinued in 2010. About twice the length of a dime, the device is typically implanted between the shoulder and elbow area of an individual’s right arm.[1] Once scanned at the proper frequency, the VeriChip responds with a unique 16 digit number which could be then linked with information about the user held on a database for identity verification, medical records access and other uses. The insertion procedure is performed under local anesthetic in a physician's office.[citation needed] As an implanted device used for identification by a third party, it had generated controversy and debate. VeriChip's merger in 2010 officially changed their name to "PositiveID." Destron Fearing, a subsidiary of Applied Digital Solutions, initially developed the technology for the VeriChip.[2
