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
I have only recently come to the conclusion that Revelations was written for the early Church and that Daniel's prophecy about the "Prince that shall come put an end to sacrifices and oblations" was fulfilled by Christ, who was the final sacrifice, who ministered for 3.5 yrs, and the other maths also add up, and that these days Christians are being told misinformation and being prepared for a never coming rapture, trying to line up already fulfilled prophecies concerning a fake state of Israel full of fake Jews, and looking for a nonexistant "future antichrist" when in fact, the papacy and every pope is the antichrist (in christ's place), and the restrainer in Thess. was the Roman Caesar who was restraining the papacy from coming to be.
It is all very "new" yet old. It only starts making sense when you learn about just how permeated the vatican is in all religions and govts

The mark is how you think and what you do.

I will consider this and pray on it.
