DUFFS BOTTOM, Tortola, VI – Controversial Pastor of the New Life Baptist Church in Duff's Bottom, Tortola, Bishop John I. Cline says the global threat of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) and the accompanying curfews being implemented in several countries, is part of a grand scheme to control the movement of people.

"We've seen the military... and the aim is to get everybody to stay in their homes and then say to them, the only way you can come out your homes is not when the virus has passed... is when they know that they have put in place the necessary measures to control the movements," he said in a March 25, 2020, social media video. 

Tracking ID's coming - Bishop Cline 

On March 25, 2020, a total curfew was announced by Premier and Minister of Finance, Hon Andrew A. Fahie (R1) after the Territory recorded its first two cases of COVID-19, the Premier had earlier closed the territory's borders against the threat.

According to the Premier, the aim of the 24/7 lockdown is to make sure health authorities get to do their work and ensure the safety of the Territory while containing the spread of the virus.

However, according to Bishop Cline, the borders of the Virgin Islands remains closed to facilitate electronic ID's, which he claims is to track people as they move around the world when international travel resumes.

"This is not accident, this is not Coronavirus keep you safe, this is a plan of the great nations of the world," he said. 

On Thursday, the Bishop in a leaked voice message to his congregation moved to indicate that he would defy the curfew orders and later recanted his statements on March 26, 2020.

"My dear people of the New Life Baptist Church, this new curfew starting Friday for 24 hours for a whole week shutdown, I am telling you all now, I will have church on Sunday is it's me by myself, this has gone too far!' he said before apologising.

'Something else going on here!' - Bishop Cline 

However, in his March 25, 2020, statement the Bishop had warned his congregation, "Now the people of God, we [are] going have a choice... where we make a decision. If you want to get off BVI and fly to Puerto Rico and they say you have to have the mark, this chip, this code, what [are] you going to do?" 

Bishop Cline reiterated that something else is going on regarding the measures governments are taking to control the deadly COVID-19 disease around the world.

"If they find a cure for Corona, they going shoot something else out there to keep you in your home until they accomplish whatever it is they are trying to accomplish," he said.

  • Perplexing Passages: What Is the Mark of the Beast in Revelation 13? (28/03/2020, 16:06) Like (5) Dislike (3) Reply
    Gospel Coalition Author Sam Storms

    It’s an issue that continues to inflame debate about the end times and contributes to the overall hysteria that discredits the Christian community in the eyes of the world: Revelation 13:16–18 and the “mark of the beast.”

    I have in mind the belief by many that the “mark” of the beast is a literal tattoo, or a chip implant, or an imprint of sorts, or perhaps some other physiological branding by which his/its followers are visually identified. The popular notion among many Christians (usually of the dispensational, futurist school of interpretation) is that some such designation—whether “the name of the beast” or “the number [666] of its name” (Rev. 13:17)—will be forcibly imposed on people living in the final few years prior to Christ’s second coming. If one wishes to buy or sell and thus survive in the days ahead, they must submit to this means of identification.

    Popular, Yes. But Correct?
    Again, this interpretation is largely based on a futurist reading of Revelation, such that what John describes pertains mainly (if not solely) to that last generation alive immediately before the second coming of Christ. If, on the other hand, the book of Revelation largely portrays events that occur throughout church history, this view is seriously undermined. As is evident from Revelation 7, we should understand the “mark” of the beast on the right hand or forehead of his/its followers to be a Satanic parody (a religious rip-off, so to speak) of the “seal” placed on the foreheads of God’s people (Rev. 7:3–8; 14:1; cf. 22:4).

    Many believe the reference to receiving a “mark” is an allusion to the ancient practice of branding or tattooing. David Aune has documented several purposes for the latter:

    * Barbarian tribes in antiquity practiced tattooing as a means of tribal identification.
    * The Greeks used tattoos as a way to punish both slaves and criminals. As such, it was a mark of disgrace and degradation, which accounts for the methods of removal discussed in ancient medical literature.
    * Tattooing could also be a mark of ownership, similar to branding cattle.
    * In a number of ancient religions, tattooing indicated dedication and loyalty to a pagan deity.

    That said, I don’t believe the so-called “mark of the beast” is a literal, physical mark on the bodies of unbelievers, either on their forehead or their right hand. Throughout Revelation we see Satan making every effort to copy whatever God does. For example, the three persons of the holy Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—find their evil counterpart in Satan, the beast, and the false prophet. And just as Jesus died and rose again from the dead, so the beast is portrayed as dying and rising to life.

    I don’t believe the so-called ‘mark of the beast’ is a literal, physical mark on the bodies of unbelievers. . . . Throughout Revelation we see Satan making every effort to copy whatever God does.

    The “mark” of the beast that unbelievers receive on their forehead or right hand is a demonic rip-off, a depraved parody, a counterfeit imitation of the “mark” believers receive on their foreheads. Look at the texts where the people of God are “sealed” on their foreheads:

    Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads. (Rev. 7:3)

    They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. (Rev. 9:4)

    Then I looked, and behold, on Mount Zion, stood the Lamb, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads. (Rev. 14:1)

    They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. (Rev. 22:4)

    No one I know believes all Christians will literally and physically have the names of Jesus and the Father tattooed on their foreheads. This is simply a way of describing that those born again and redeemed by Christ’s blood belong to him and to his Father and are preserved in faith by the indwelling Holy Spirit.

    Mark of Belonging
    So when we read that the false prophet causes everyone who isn’t a Christian to have the mark of the beast written on their forehead, we should understand this as a sign that they belong to the beast and are loyal to him. This “mark” on their foreheads or on their right hand is simply Satan’s way of mimicking the seal of God on God’s people. If you have the name of Jesus and God the Father written on your forehead, it simply means that they own you, that you belong to them, that you are loyal to the Lord God Almighty.
    But if you have “the name of the beast” (Rev. 13:17) written on your forehead, it signifies that he owns you, that you belong to him, that you are loyal to the Antichrist.

    Echoes from the OT  
    Some have found the background for the mark of the beast in the Jewish practice of wearing tephillim or phylacteries. These were leather boxes containing Scripture passages (cf. Ex. 13:9, 16; Deut. 6:8; 11:18; Matt. 23:5) worn either on the left arm (facing the heart) or on the forehead. The mark of the beast, however, was to be placed on the right hand.

    Others have pointed out that the word “mark” was used of the emperor’s seal on business contracts and the impress of the Roman ruler’s head on coins. Perhaps, then, as Greg Beale argues, “the mark alludes to the state’s political and economic ‘stamp of approval,’ given only to those who go along with its religious demands.”

    Demonic Counterpart
    It seems clear that the “mark” of the beast on his followers is the demonic counterpart and parody of the “seal” placed on the foreheads of God’s people (see Rev. 7:3–8; 14:1; 22:4). Beale writes:
    Just as the seal and the divine name on believers connote God’s ownership and spiritual protection of them, so the mark and Satanic name signify those who belong to the Devil and will undergo perdition.
    Since the seal or name on the believer is obviously invisible, symbolizing the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, it seems certain that the mark of the beast is likewise a symbolic way of describing the loyalty of his followers and his ownership of them.

    The mark of the beast is a symbolic way of describing the loyalty of his followers and his ownership of them.

      This is absolute confusion and nonsense, deliberately made so by evangelical christian scholars like Beale. God, our father, is not one to make us confused.

      We (slaves and descendants) are scattered Israelites and all others are heathen, that's the simple foundation we need to build on. With that in mind, the mark of the beast for us is to pledge loyalty and praise to the god(s) of the heathen. In return we get the benefits the heathens choose to throw at our feet. Else we continue to get the persecution, racism and police brutality we see every day. It's as simple as that.

      As an example, if you take a well known wanna-be-god, notice how he approves of those who praise him, and "persecutes" with words those who criticize him.

    Sir I think you are worried about something else apart from this lock down . What is it? I do agree that it is nearing the end time though. On the other hand you are missing a few signs like false Prophets and people solely preaching the gospel for money. Daniel 12 : 4 tells us that "Many shall run through and fro the earth" in the last days. People are going to move around a lot in large numbers not lock up in our homes. So you just realized that we are being track? That having been happening a long time now. I just wonder Bishop, suppose you had your position in the health Department, would you have said the same thing? Stop looking for attention. The bible asked us to "look uo when we see these things" You should be preaching the Gospel too the lost instead of wasting your time. There are those of us who read for our self. We must stop using the Church for Politic and monetary gains In times like this People are suffering some from your own flock. What is the Church doing for them? I am tired of Preachers who instead of feeding the flock use them as the bible said as merchandise while they live like Kings. I may divert from the issue here but I am tired of People hiding behind "the cloth" .

    Majority a few people who are against what he saying ain’t no different from the people in the Bible who are against what they were saying about the son of God or the word of God. Out of let’s say 1000 probably seven was for him and the rest wasn’t for him that didn’t make the seven people wrong the & others at some point had to agree and bow. Make and tons are called few are chosen...

    Bishop why are you trying to instill further fear into the people with these conspiracy theories.. don’t you know that fear creates stress which can lead to different health issues?.. I like you personally but I don’t agree with you with this.. a Shepard protects their flocks and do their best to keep them safe, so explain to me how you are doing this as a “Shepard” to your flock or speak of it generally..where are the facts to substantiate this conspiracy theory you’re propagating, “YouTube”?.. if you don’t have concrete evidence to support this theory, you need to stop.. and if you have proof then prove it with real evidence ..

    I agree with Bishop, this lockdown has very little to do with the virus. Watch them extend the lockdown next Friday 8pm. Meanwhile popo out there arresting people with no masks or gloves on then going home to their families. If there is no state of emergency then why was the white Governor speaking to us instead of the Black Premier who we elected? Premier is in charge right? What does the lockdown solve?

    What has made this guy delirious, is it the two weeks of missed collection or is he suffering from the virus? Passports and visas are movement control tools in place from long ago. As his nephew said you have to be sensible about this thing. I thought he was a sensible guy but now I hope his Flock will see him for what he really is, a very greedy business man who will not let event the safety and well being of his own flock interferes with his projected earnings.

    Ive been blogging for the pass month that the sun is this virus enemy. Lets be different and we should be allow to go out stay out as long as possible in the sun. We will be ok... Now the Scientist is saying the same. President Trump is hoping summer will come quickly so this virus can go away.. One scientist says its a seasonal sickness tht lives in the cold only.. Locking down is not the right thing.. God gave us this hog climate for desease like these.. Lets be different. Lets be the trend setter..Keep the borders closed, Ban flight from America and Europe and China/ Asia for or anyone whos been to any of these places for a month. .Open up for Caribbean people bvi islanders, residents, workers who presently work and live in the bvi only... Let them in have them under self quaranteen for 14 days.. then once they are ok they join us in the sun...We will be ok....Cant allow fear to consume us....Be brave. Be wise be courageous. Step out from the pack... Be the real leader . The world will follow...

    Yes he’s on point. Stop hating and do some research people.
    Research the 5G that is being launched and how it will affect us. You will no longer need any cash or ID once the chip or electronic device is inserted on your hand or wherever you choose on your body. Without it you will not be able to buy anything, travel etc.
    By the time we realize what this man is saying has a lot of truth to it it’s gonna be to late.
    We will suffer for lack of knowledge.

      Even if and when we realise that what he is saying is true, what’s the next step? That’s what I can’t understand. Is the BVI supposed the stop 5G from being implemented? We can’t do anything about it but pray and be ready if you believe in the second coming.

    I am of the belief that you are in fear of something more. For Isaiah 8:13 says do not fear anything except the Lord God Almighty he alone is the Holy One. If you fear him you need not fear anything else. Read on for more clarification. a man of the cloth should breathe this and instruct the congregation to do the same. Chapter 9 starts off by saying Nevertheless that time of darkness and despair will not go on forever.

    I brought those up to say you are perceived by your people as a pastor/bishop these are hefty titles to wield and I am sure you know that the Bible also tells of leading your people and being responsible Moreso accountable for every member of flock led by your words (paraphrasing)

    I don’t intend to argue bible prophecy or semantics with you however informing you that the facade is slowly fading and in the times ahead (temporary times for this entire world is only temporary...why we were told to store up our treasures in heaven) these things must happen for the corruption to make way for the Coming King ... don’t stir up fear but stir up faith and convince your people to secure their souls in God for the times ahead must come (the Bible has yet to lie in my opinion) all things written are sure enough coming to pass....

    So , rise to the occasion and change my personal view and opinion of you as falling short of the standards of priesthood and earn the title which you call yourself Pastor/Bishop

      As his followers would say "Not my pastor" "Not my bishop"

      Jesus could come and show them facts and some people would cling to their pastor, bishop, this people they follow who claim to prophesy and still not see the truth.

    Is bishop cline lawless?
    This man is not being contravertial.
    He is defying authority.
    Bishop cline,I refer you to section (1) in the Constitution, which guarantees freedom of movements as a fundamental right.
    However, subsection (3) (a) of section 18 clearly states-

    [ "(3) NOTHING in any LAW or done under its AUTHORITY shall be held to contravene this section(18) to the extent that the law in question makes provision- (a) for the imposition of restrictions on the movement or residence within the virgin islands or on the right to leave the virgin islands of persons generally or any class of persons that are reasonably justifiable in a democratic society in the interest of defence, public safety, public order, public morality or PUBLIC HEALTH"]
    The BVI authorities acted lawfully,and they did not contravene section 18 of the Constitution,because their actions are in the interest of PUBLIC HEALTH!
    It is clear to me,that pastor cline is defying authority,which is an ungodly act.
    The Bible teaches us,to respect social authority and laws of the country.
    One love BVI,Stay safe indoors BVI.

      Extracted from the website

      COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in areas with hot and humid climates

      From the evidence so far, the COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in ALL AREAS, including areas with hot and humid weather. Regardless of climate, adopt protective measures if you live in, or travel to an area reporting COVID-19. The best way to protect yourself against COVID-19 is by frequently cleaning your hands. By doing this you eliminate viruses that may be on your hands and avoid infection that could occur by then touching your eyes, mouth, and nose.

    I am perplex and disappointed with Pastor Cline's remarks in defiant of the order to " Lock Down" the country for the safety and protection of the citizens from COVID-19 Corona virus. Let us look at the two confirmed cases that we have so far in the territory, they were imported cases. Had the Hon. Premier closed the territory's borders earlier and put measures in place we would not have got any case so far.

    The statement by Pastor is very childish and arrogant. As a minister of the gospel who members look forward for spiritual guidance, such a display of disrespectfulness leaves much to be desired. One can compare Pastor Cline to President Donald Trump because of lack of knowledge of the dangers of the virus. They both think in a miniscule manner and try to doubt or disobey the orders of the Governor and the Cabinet as well as medical professionals.

    From reports from the USA and more particularly New York, if the US President had quarantine New York and prevent the movement of people, there would have been less cases in New York(Queens). Based on reports I received from a relative, the Mount Saini hospital is using refrigerated trucks to transport dead bodies from the hospital. Should we wait for the pandemic to reach to that proportion. Certainly I do not think so. New York has become the most affected place in the world with ths virus and this is because of the lack of awareness of the president.I must commend the Hon. Premier for the wonderful work that he and his cabinet is doing. This is a Premier who is working for his people. Thanks especially for the Governor and Minister Malone for the tremendous work they are doing.

    Bishop Cline you are on track. People perish for lack of knowledge. They are too lazy to do research. This is all about 5G. They are sacrificing millions of people to get the nation's under their control. Time to educate the masses Bishop. Some governments are doing what monkey do we do too. Tell me why Russia and parts of Africa dont have the virus. They rejected the 5G implementation and working on their own. Why China was first is because it is where it originated. Italy is densely populated and they followed suit. It is all about Microsoft and Bill Gates and world powers tracking the movements of our people. The only antidote to this phenomenon is the prayers of our people. We need to come together and pray this anti christ measure away. It will however materialize in other nations that matters because just as how Jesus must go to calvary the antichrist must also come. Signs of the times. If you have to be the only one preaching in the wilderness be the sacrificial lamb. History will be kind to you my fellow laborer.

    This man..! How is it anybody goes to listen to this rubbish.
    There are a few outcomes or potential outcomes from this that will benefit certain groups: there’s the US/China struggle to be the World’s current empire; hard left socialists; militant environmentalists etc etc
    Just playing along though, if anyone had a hand in it and it isn’t just abhorrent and negligent animal husbandry in wet markets allowing diseases to go from species to species (as has happened there before), what on Earth does that have to do with some tiny islands of 28 thousand people in the Caribbean.?! Nobody is coming for us because we are globally inconsequential. Many maps and online address fields don’t even include us and most humans have no idea we exist.

    So then, why would a man try to spread confusion and paranoia here in BVI? Oh yes, it is a good money maker to have Vulnerable lost and bewildered people pay you for “guidance”.

    On the other hand, smaller states who take early decisive action are seeing much better outcomes. Of course, it was foolish to keep the Italian and American cruises coming after passengers in the region were com8ng from high,y infected places but that ship has sailed so we need to contain it and hope the two patients our authorities so far admitted/detected, and the others visiting or returning without any discipline or consideration for others to self isolate, Didn’t do too much transmission
