When we discuss this matter; again it seems that I see more in the world attuned to this reality that is clearly approaching then that of the church who it seems oftentimes could care less. Now we can from what I understand although a few here disagree have assurance that we will not be on earth once the Antichrist forces that mark on people. But that shouldn't make us complacent to warning others to flee the wrath to come; and others should see that we are in the world but not of it. That is why our conversation should be Biblically based; if we are used to that it should be easier to evangelize as even having others overhear our talk about the Lord could open those avenues.
Now naturally the media has gotten into some Hollywood pictures; specifically to reptilian demons in the older flicks; and alien abductions; etc. As to the mark of the Beast I am not sure; but I am certain it will be worse than anyone can imagine.
On this side of the Rapture we know that God brings His children all good things; and the enemy is limited in coming out fully with implementation of not only the mark but Beast worship. It is easy to be lulled to sleep because of this delay but the souls of men are in jeopardy daily. It is easy to see many who would worship Satan today should the Rapture be imminent; but also the Lord will wake up a countless multitude who die for their faith in that time. It is the harvest which is to come which will be what ultimately looked forward to beyond the horrors of what is to come. God wants fruit to come to maturity; and no doubt has seen much less in general in recent years with many lukewarm and few still on fire for the Lord.
Again we have seen how violence and all sorts of reprobate activities are glorified in the world today; endless wars being no exception to this trend. If we live by the sword we will die that way in the Trib.; the sole victory is through martyrdom then.
