Likely yes. What I have read is that they thought that after the War, people would be so exhausted they would beg for the NWO. Switzerland was the designated neutral place/bankers.
Personally, I look at it as going far back beyond that. The first attempt at world control and challenge to God - Nimrod building his tower of Babble - defeated by God. Each age has seen Evil Leaders rise and fall.
Even our civil war - according to some sources -they knew that America would be a stumbling block and desired to have a smaller and weaker place when they were ready to take control of the world.
Behind it all is the Spiritual battle. Satan deceiving and using men to try to set up his kingdom and challenge God.
The more we pray, fight evil, and spread God’s message, the more likely God will intervene to allow more time to save as many people as possible.
Should the tide turn, the period of Grace could well be over, and it will get worse the bible says: And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved....
I figured when Trump was elected we were at 50/50. I’m thinking the odds are improving that grace may be extended, but that’s just me.
