"Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint." - Proverbs 29:18
The signs are all around us, my friends. The warnings of ancient biblical prophecy are staring us right in the face. Yet the masses sleepwalk on, oblivious to the darkness gathering on the horizon.
Just look at the headlines. Global surveillance, digital currencies, human microchips - the very things the book of Revelation predicted millennia ago. The end-times scenario is unfolding in real-time, and most can't be bothered to open their eyes.
## The Chilling Parallels to Daniel's Prophecy
Back in the 6th century BC, the prophet Daniel had a vision of the last days. In it, he foresaw a global empire rising that would seek to control all buying and selling. Sound familiar?
"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark" (Daniel 13:16-17).
Chilling, isn't it? The ability to buy and sell tied to a physical mark. Just replace "mark" with microchip or digital ID, and you've got our current reality staring you in the face.
## The Revelation 13 Warning
The book of Revelation picks up this prophecy centuries later, warning of a "beast" that will arise and force everyone to take its mark. John the Apostle describes this mark as being necessary for all economic activity.
"He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark" (Revelation 13:16-17).
The parallels are unmistakable. Surveillance, digital currency, human microchips - it's all unfolding before our eyes. The biblical prophets warned us, but most refuse to listen.
"The truth doesn't hide. It waits for those brave enough to look."
