Just as we saw the sheep being compliant to the “rules for covid”, in the 3nd times, the people will be compliant with the rules of the ark of the beast. Folks will try to buy and sell without the mark, but the compliant sheeple will both not allow it, and will report it most likely. The Biden admin set up hotlines for people to squeel on each other during the pandemic, and I th8no this will also happen during the end times, with neighbor squeeling on neighbor, family member on family member.
There will of course be an underground network who will buck the rules and supply folks with needed things like food, gas perhaps, and other stuff, but these networks will be in great danger likely, as the sheeple will be co stsntly on the lookout for non compliant rebels. (Some say there will be miraculous provisions during this time as well)
Sadly we saw ,how fast and how completely the people turned on each other during covid. I think it’s gonna be much worse when the end times begin for those that get saved and refuse the mark after the rapture.
Your predictions are reasonable, Bob. It will be very much like the conditions for the early church: to save your [eternal] life you must risk losing your [physical] life.
agreed
