AI, Digital Currency, and the Antichrist
Apr 28, 2025Tap to summarizeTECHNOLOGY to make our lives easier and more secure will be important tools to build the infrastructure of the prophesied global government.Josh Davis, author of Rise of the One-World Mind, explains how Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and artificial intelligence will help bring about a one-world government and a single religion that worships the Antichrist.
Transcribe →The Hooks in Gog's Jaws
Mar 10, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeWE ARE SEEING what could be the sentiment that brings the world together to follow the Antichrist to war.Building on last week’s discussion of the changing reality on the ground in the Middle East, especially with Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria, we look at what might be the “hooks” God uses to drag Gog of Magog (the Antichrist) to Israel for the final battle of the age, Armageddon.
Transcribe →Redrawing the Middle East Map
Mar 3, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeISRAEL’S PRIME MINISTER Benjamin Netanyahu says he doesn’t intend to allow the armed forces of Al Qaeda offshoot HTS south of Damascus. Is this a step toward fulfilling the land promised to Abraham’s descendants in Genesis 15?We discuss a new report from Avi Lipkin in Israel where he describes a new Middle East, with an Israeli-Druze autonomous zone across southern Syria from the Golan Heights to the Euphrates River, and a Kurdish autonomous zone east of the Euphrates connecting to the Kurdish zone in Iraq, linking to Israel’s allies in Azerbaijan.Would this fulfill prophecy? That's up for debate, but one thing is certain—we are living in prophetic times.
Transcribe →Is God Done With Israel?
Feb 24, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeSINCE OCTOBER 7, 2023, a growing number of Christians have concluded that we should not support Israel for reasons ranging from theft of the land from native Arabs to the church replacing Israel in end times prophecy.We disagree. While we acknowledge that Israel is ruled by fallen, sinful humans just like every other nation on Earth, and we affirm that all have sinned and will not go to the Father except through Jesus, we also recognize that Islam has a 1,400-year history of bloody conquest in its wake. Arabs and Jews have been trying to negotiate a two-state solution since at least 1936, even though the land “from the river to the sea” was promised to the Zionist movement by the League of Nations in 1920 (Article 22 of the League of Nations Covenant; the British Mandate for Palestine was approved by the League of Nations Sept. 16, 1922).The bottom line is this: A plain reading of verses like Isaiah 54, Romans 11:1–5, and Zechariah 12:8–10 make clear that a day is coming when a remnant of the Jews in Jerusalem “will look on Me, on Him whom they have pierced, [and] they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over Him, as one weeps over a firstborn.”In context, it’s clear that those verses do not apply to the church—they are directed specifically at Israel and the Jews.
Transcribe →Trump, Gaza, and Armageddon
Feb 17, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizePRESIDENT TRUMP shocked the world by suggesting that the United States would “own” Gaza and rebuild it into the Riviera of the Middle East. Is he serious?Doom was prophesied on Gaza by the Hebrew prophets Jeremiah (Jer. 47:1–7), Amos (Amos 1:6–8), and Zephaniah (Zeph. 2:5–7). Those prophecies were fulfilled by the Assyrians in 730 BC and Egypt in 601 BC. Were those “already-but-not-yet” fulfillments? It’s possible.We discuss the world’s reaction to President Trump’s out of the box proposal and whether, as some Christians have suggested, this means the president is now the leading candidate for the Antichrist. (Short answer: No.)
Transcribe →Trump, 2025, and the Mark of the Beast
Feb 10, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeIS 2025 the year the Mark of the Beast is introduced?It’s early in the game for the mark, but it’s likely we’ll see major efforts to introduce Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) around the world, and this is as close to the mark as anything we’ve seen in our lifetimes.We look at the situation in Syria and how it may impact the Middle East in general and Israel in particular. We also discuss the claim by some that President Trump’s recent actions suggest that he is the Man of Lawlessness. With respect, we disagree; the Antichrist is likely to be younger and have a much wider base of support than Donald Trump.
Transcribe →The Golden Age
Feb 3, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeMANY CHRISTIANS have noticed that President Trump has promised to usher in a new golden age for America. Does he know the origin of that phrase?We think not. Still, since we’ve written about the New Age belief in a golden age with the return of “old Saturn’s reign” in our last two books, we discuss the origin of the term in ancient Greek religion, how it was echoed in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of a statue made of gold, silver, bronze, and iron, and how the pagan “prophecy” differs from that of Daniel.Bottom line: A true golden age will come only with the return of Christ—and that will be preceded by iron mixed with miry clay.
Transcribe →Seven Kings or Seven Angels?
Jan 27, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeWHO OR WHAT are the seven heads on the Beast? This week, we compare Revelation 17 and Daniel 7 to identify what the horns represent both past and future.There is a general consensus that the seven kingdoms are Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome, and a future nation, possibly a revived Roman Empire, that is the global kingdom of Antichrist. As we noted last week, there are others who identify specific kings or rulers: Nimrod, Thutmose III (the pharaoh who oppressed Israel), Sennacherib, Nebuchadnezzar, Antiochus Ephiphanes, Nero, and Adolf Hitler, with the prophesied Antichrist to be the spirit who possessed one of the seven (or even a resurrected Nimrod).Here’s where it gets more complicated: We believe the kings are supernatural—fallen angels, if you like. How do we identify them from among the pagan gods of the ancient world? That’s a great question, and it’s one we can’t answer. We can speculate, but then we are looking “through a glass darkly.”We also note that the link in Revelation 17 between the seven heads on the Beast to “seven mountains” is not necessarily a geographic clue. Mountains in Second Temple Judaism sometimes represent angelic beings, as in 1 Enoch 21 (and probably the “stones of fire” in Ezekiel 28).
Transcribe →The Seven Heads of the Beast
Jan 20, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeTHE IDENTITY of the Beast and what its seven heads represent are two of the biggest unanswered questions in Christian theology.This week, we begin a study of the seven heads which John was told represent “seven kings, five who have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he does come he must remain only a little while.” We present a list of human kings who might fit those clues, but we believe these kings are supernatural, not human.The Beast itself is “an eighth but it belongs to the seven, and it goes to destruction.” The word translated “destruction” is the Greek apōleian, which is similar to Apollyon, the “Destroyer” who rises from the Abyss in Revelation 9. Is it the same word? If so, is there is a prophesied civil war among the Fallen during the end times? Or are we going too far to make this connection?This much we know: We’ve only scratched the surface of this topic.
Transcribe →Rise of the Beast
Jan 13, 202500:28:31Tap to summarizeTECHNOLOGY AND GEOPOLITICS are coming together to build the infrastructure for the prophesied global government.We discuss surveillance technology, Central Bank Digital Currency, the G20’s response to China’s Belt and Road Initiative, Africa’s “coup belt,” and the role of the Great Prostitute, Inanna/Ishtar, in assembling the Beast System.
