And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. Revelation 13:3
After the fall of Papal Rome's power over the nations in 1798, Satan's master plan of replacing the Roman darkness over the people had already been in place. That plan was the introduction of mainstream atheism.
The term athéisme was coined in France in the sixteenth century. Atheists French philosophers were major advocates of it. The "French Revolution of 1789 catapulted atheistic thought into political notability in some Western countries and opened the way for the nineteenth century movements of Rationalism, Freethought, and Liberalism."
The Roman Church in the Middle ages prohibited the masses from reading the Word of God and because of that, gross spiritual darkness prevailed in society. Anyone who opposed the church's teachings were labeled heretics.
Atheism/Secularism discourages and attacks the Bible so that it would be eliminated. In communist societies, religion is repressed. However, in western secular societies the Bible is kicked out of schools, public places and even the churches (people no longer read the Bible). Higher criticism in Christian Universities destroy faith in the Bible, causing the public to no longer hold it as the infallible Word of God. Thus the same purpose of blinding the masses in every society, fulfilled.
The beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them...............the street of the great city which mystically is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
Revelation 11:7
The Protestant Reformation sought to bring light to the world by encouraging Bible reading and for a while, the people started reading for themselves which then diminished the power of the Roman Church. But because of the great work that atheism/secular humanism has done in attacking the Bible, the world is now ripe for the same darkness of the middle ages. And as we can see Rome is once again rising to regain its lost dominion over the nations.
Satan has been using atheism/secular humanism to destroy faith in the Word of God and undo the works of the Protestant reformation to prepare the way for the revival of the Roman power. Where Spiritual Darkness abide, Rome rises.
The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come. Revelation 17:8
