IMO - those people won't give up scheming till Christ's return. Even if all the known players more evil will arise. This does not mean we stop the good fight. Just means we must keep up the fight generation to generation.
I agree - for sure. The history of the world looking all the way back to Nimrod, has just been a repeating pattern, and we are to continue the spiritual battle till that time of peace-when Jesus returns and reigns in peace and love.
