Professor John Lennox is always a joy to listen to as I always learn something new and valuable. This video on the Mark of the Beast is one of the best lectures I have heard so I am keen to pass it on as I know my followers will be blessed by it.

Most Christians have spent decades worrying about a microchip. Prof. John Lennox argues they’ve been looking in the wrong direction entirely — and that the real danger is already inside your pocket, your home, and your daily routine.
In this powerful lecture, Oxford mathematician and Christian apologist Professor John C. Lennox delivers a rigorously argued, scripturally grounded case that the Mark of the Beast described in Revelation 13 is not a future technology — it is a present spiritual reality that is quietly reshaping human consciousness, eroding the capacity for worship, and replacing God with a system that most people have already surrendered to without realising it.
Drawing on the original Greek text of Revelation, the writings of C.S. Lewis, Blaise Pascal, and Albert Borgmann, and cutting-edge research from Microsoft, the University of Pennsylvania, and former Google design ethicist Tristan Harris — Lennox makes an argument that is equal parts scholarly, prophetic, and deeply personal.
This is not a conspiracy theory. This is one of the most respected Christian intellectuals alive today reading one of the most misread passages in the entire Bible — and arriving at a conclusion that will challenge how you think about faith, technology, attention, and what it means to worship in the 21st century.
