More information on the notorious, yet forthcoming, Mark of the Beast:
The most dreaded prophecy in Scripture is the prophecy concerning 666 - the Mark of the beast. Books have been written about it. Movies have been produced about it. It has been called the mark of Cain and the mark of the devil. Scripture tells us it will be received in the right hand or the forehead. Amazingly, the original Greek words in Revelation 13:18 that were translated 666 are: chi xi stigma, pronounced 'khee xee stig-ma.' It is interesting that the last word ‘stigma’ comes from a primary word ‘stiz.’ It means: to stick or prick: a mark incised or punched—for recognition of ownership (Strong’s Greek Dictionary). Major problems exist with ID cards. One report said that twenty percent of all national ID cards are lost or stolen each year. ID card counterfeiting and identity theft continue to plague the attempt to establish secure ID. Applied Digital Solutions from Florida has provided a high-tech solution. A person can now have a computer chip about the size of a grain of rice injected under the skin with a needle. This injected chip stays with the individual for life and is virtually counterfeit-free and impossible to steal. Until recently, this dreaded subject has been projected into some far, distant future event. However, it now appears that the time for the enactment of this prophesied cashless society is upon us.

Scripture references:
Revelation 13:16-18:
And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell unless he had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.
Revelation 14:9-11:
If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he 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. And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name.
Revelation 16:2:
The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land, and ugly and painful sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped his image.
Revelation 19:20:
And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.
Proponents of world government teach that there are three major causes of war on the earth: political conflicts, economic conflicts, and religious conflicts. They contend that, if we had one-world government, a global economy, and one-world religion, the root causes of war would be abolished. With the advent of The European Union, NAFTA, APEC, WTO, IMF and GATT, it appears that a one-world economy is upon us.
The Bible teaches that the time will come where this one-world economy will be so dominant that no man may buy or sell unless he has received a mark in his right hand or forehead. Our world is rapidly moving toward a cashless society where every economic transaction is done electronically and requires that each individual has a number associated with them (e.g. Social Security number). It has been recommended by some in banking circles that a special invisible number be implanted somewhere on the body. This number would satisfy the needs of the banking community, the manufacturing industry, and the businesses that supply us with goods and services. Emerging technologies, such as RFID chips and Verichip, are enabling such a system. Verichip now calls it the "Positive ID" to make it sound more alluring. Microchipping people would give the world government even greater control over everyone, because even those who do receive it will only be able to continue buying and selling if they comply with absolutely everything the world government demands. If they do one thing the world government doesn't like...they'll just turn off their chip.
Computer systems in Brussels, the seat of the European Union, now have the capability to manage all of the world's finances, and more government complexes have been built in Europe to house a large central government with the potential for global economic control.
The desires of the proponents of world government, today's societal trends, as well as emerging technology are working together to fulfill Biblical prophecy and usher in the Mark of the Beast. It is not certain that RFID Chips will be used, but the Mark of the Beast is coming, and you must reject it, regardless of what form it may come. There is no alternative to saying NO. You must reject it. The fulfillment of this prophecy is inevitable. Think about how many security changes have been made since September 11, 2001 when 3,000 lives were taken. Now imagine the measures that will be taken after one-third of mankind is wiped off the earth in a nuclear war. They will try to mark everyone on the planet. But it is your responsibility to NOT take the mark under any circumstance and to trust the sovereign Lord of the universe who was willing to die for you. He'd rather die for you than be without you, and He wants you to spend eternity in His love. And love is something this end-time government will certainly be far from having, despite the fact that they will pretend to be so concerned for you. They will put on a smile and tell you this little chip (or whatever specifically they end up using) is for your greatest good; they'll tell you it's for you and your family's safety; they might even come up with lies about how the technology is so advanced that it can radically alter your body's health or DNA and greatly extend your life as in the days of Noah (Matthew 24:37). Don't buy it.
The Bible specifically says, “He deceived them that had received the mark of the beast” (Revelation 19:20). Notice carefully, those who receive the mark are deceived. If you take the mark, you will be going right along with the Antichrist, and your punishment will be brutal and eternal.
We cannot say, absolutely, that RFID Chip implants will be the Mark of the Beast. But it looks like they're very likely to be the tool that will be used to fulfill this dreaded prophecy:

BE WATCHFUL, AND WHATEVER THE MARK OF THE BEAST TURNS OUT TO BE, YOU MUST NOT TAKE IT. IT WILL BE ENDORSED BY A POWERFUL POLITICAL LEADER AND THE POPE, BUT DO NOT BE DECEIVED!
Notice that the prophecy sates that this will include all who take "the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." Perhaps they will issue some type of global identification number along with the mark, and maybe those who refuse the mark yet still give their reverence to the global government will still be condemned. I do not know for sure what it will look like, but I am sure of this: The Word of God has made it as clear as possible that you must not give any form of allegiance or reverence to this world government or its leaders whatsoever, and any form of special identification that you faithlessly accept from them will put you in danger of the fires of Hell.
The God of the universe is infinitely stronger than all of His creation combined. Christ Jesus has authority over all of it with absolute sovereignty and power. He is an awesome God and rewards those who live by faith in Him, so please do not think this is all doom and gloom. Those who refuse the mark and put their trust in Christ will be persecuted for a few short years but will be granted the amazing privilege to reign with Him over the whole earth when He returns! (Revelation 5:10, 20:4; IITimothy 2:12).
