how close is the world order to...
...forcing all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[e] That number is 666.
The next generation of 4G-enabled mobile applications will make it
simple and seamless to pay for a virtual movie ticket or real bag of
groceries with just a tap of your device. Your smartphone or tablet, in
essence, will transform into a mobile wallet.
Apple's brand-new
Passbook app, which requires the most recent iOS 6 operating system in
order to work, stores things like coupons, boarding passes, and loyalty
cards all in one place. While the iPhone 5 does not include the Near
Field Technology (NFC) chip that most easily enables point-of-contact
transactions, the company is betting that Passbook will be an interim
mobile wallet solution as more consumers get comfortable doing these
things with their phones.
Consumers with 4G Android smartphones and tablets already can take advantage of NFC technology by downloading the Google Wallet
application. This app lets you make payments from your Visa,
MasterCard, American Express, or Discover account just by putting your
phone in close proximity to point-of-sale terminals at participating
retailers.
