As you know the Euro applies only to the European Union at
present. England and Denmark decided not to participate. Will the
Euro become a world currency? Probably not. But it may help set
the stage for either a common currency for all nations, or even a
different monetary system altogether. Yes, I can see where this
would move the world towards the mark of the beast.

I don't think using the Euro would present a problem for the time
being. As for the future, the Lord will show His people what to do
when the time comes. This is where our faith needs to be. God has
this promise for us; "I will instruct you and teach you in the way
which you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you."
(Psalm 32:8)
