Our financial system is dramatically changing, and cash is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. We live in a digital world, and national governments and big banks are both encouraging the move away from paper currency and coins. But what would a cashless society mean for our future? Are there any dangers to such a system?

New technology for a cashless society is marching right in step with other moves toward the coming Antichrist world government. We often hear about the “new world order” and “global governance”–buzzwords that are helping prepare the world for a new international financial and political system, a society surveilled by networked technology collecting a database of information on nearly everyone–as Revelation chapter 13 appears to have predicted nearly 2,000 years ago.

The switch to electronic commerce has been slow and gradual. People like the speed and convenience of electronic commerce, but many are also comfortable with the way things have been all their lives. For hundreds of years, the world has operated on cash–bills and coins that are tangible and give people a sense of truly possessing. In that respect, the world hasn’t changed much in thousands of years, since coins were first minted. Many people are still uneasy with the idea of a computerized card or chip linking them to their invisible wealth.

Most governments around the world are eager to transition to a cashless society as well.Cash is expensive to print, inspect, move, store and guard.

Counterfeiting is always going to be a problem as long as paper currency exists. Most of all, a cashless society would give governments more control. Governments would be able to track virtually all financial transactions and would also be able to monitor tax compliance much more closely.

The Antichrist will eventually introduce a new economic system, whereby he will profess to fix the world’s economic woes. Those who want to be a part of his new economy and society will be compelled to receive the “666 mark of the beast” in their right hand or forehead–possibly in the form of a tiny computerized chip bearing all their personal, financial, and medical information. Big Brother and the new world order will thereby be able to monitor everyone’s every move.

One thing is certain: A global cashless economy and a monitored and controlled society are in the making. Fiber optics, satellites, and computer databases have the potential to monitor the world in a way never before possible.

Are you ready for these great and final events of the end? Take the time to study what the Bible has to say about Endtime events, including the coming Antichrist world dictatorship. Then you won’t be caught by surprise when they happen, or duped into following the Antichrist.
