If the past has taught us anything, one lesson should be that we should not endeavor to interpret Bible prophecies by current political events. God’s last day message is to warn the world concerning its pre-probationary crisis hour when the whole of mankind must individually decide to obey God and receive His mark or sign of approval, or to obey “the man of sin” and receive his mark of allegiance. This is a message of personal salvation through an in-dwelling Savior who recreates His character in individual hearts. Louis F. Were PB 118 pg
