So far people are not getting their heads chopped of for not worshiping the image of the beast. And so far people can buy and sell without the mark. Soon that will change.
It's happened for thousands of years, either directly by the Vatican in the crusades, inquisition etc, or by one of their proxy groups, such as the Muslims
Explain the mark, and people buying and selling. Also explain the world being under one world government… one religion… one currency. Those have not happened yet. Just trying to see why you think the way you do. Cheers.
The one world govt, religion, and currency are not in the bible as far as I know but that aside, it's hard to argue that Rome didn't (and still doesn't) rule the world, religion and commerce included, at the time Revelation was written, and I believe Rome was what John referred to in Revelation, hence the thick coded language in the book. That was the only way to get it circulated without Rome getting in the way

The mark is how you think and what you do.

I will consider this and pray on it.
