a new religions /AI) and a new AI bible

 

A New “AI Religion” And A New “AI Bible”? - by Michael Snyder - http://endoftheamericandream.com/a-new-ai-religion-and-a-new-ai-bible/   Will millions of people soon be looking to artificial intelligence for spiritual guidance? Such a notion may sound crazy to you, but we should not underestimate how rapidly AI is changing our world. Earlier today, my wife showed me some of the things that ChatGPT is capable of doing. In just a matter of moments, it can produce extremely sophisticated answers to very complex questions. Honestly, I was extremely impressed. Other AI programs are capable of producing very realistic photos, artwork and videos. Of course what we are seeing right now is just the beginning. AI technology is advancing at an exponential rate, and given enough time it would be millions of times more powerful than it is right now.   In a previous article, I warned that this sort of technology has the potential to take over every aspect of our lives.   Sadly, that even includes religion.   On Friday, over 300 people attended a “church service” that was led by a ChatGPT chatbot…   The artificial intelligence chatbot asked the believers in the fully packed St. Paul’s church in the Bavarian town of Fuerth to rise from the pews and praise the Lord.   The ChatGPT chatbot, personified by an avatar of a bearded Black man on a huge screen above the altar, then began preaching to the more than 300 people who had shown up on Friday morning for an experimental Lutheran church service almost entirely generated by AI.   During the 40 minute service, four different “avatars” appeared on the screen.   Two of them were young women, and two of them were young men.   The 29-year-old that came up with this idea said that about 98 percent of the content for the service “comes from the machine”…   The 40-minute service – including the sermon, prayers and music – was created by ChatGPT and Jonas Simmerlein, a theologian and philosopher from the University of Vienna.   “I conceived this service – but actually I rather accompanied it, because I would say about 98% comes from the machine,” the 29-year-old scholar told The Associated Press.   In this case, ChatGPT was asked to contribute to a Christian worship service, and that is definitely very creepy.   But of course it is probably just a matter of time before entirely new religions are created by artificial intelligence.   In fact, the WEF’s Yuval Noah Harari seems to think that we are already “on the verge” of seeing that happen…   The world is on the verge of a new religion created by artificial intelligence, the historian Yuval Noah Harari has claimed.   The academic – known for his bestselling book Sapiens – said software such as ChatGPT could attract worshippers by writing its own sacred texts.   Speaking at a science conference, he said AI had crossed a new frontier by ‘gaining mastery’ of our language and was now capable of using it to shape human culture.   You and I may think that this is a load of nonsense, but the truth is that there are millions of people out there that already believe some really strange things.   For example, this week I read about something called “the Church of Psilomethoxin” that already has several hundred followers…   A motley assemblage of army veterans, yogis, and psychonauts are mingling in April in the garden of a luxury property just outside Austin, Texas, on the hottest day of the year yet in the state. Some 350 people are here to dance to ambient music and celebrate a unique new religious congregation that worships with a psychedelic sacrament – one they claim to have created themselves by crossbreeding magic mushrooms with hallucinogenic toad venom. Welcome to the Church of Psilomethoxin.   If a “superhuman intelligence” were to create an extremely appealing new “religion” that reflects the cultural values that are currently dominant in our society, I could see a lot of people being attracted to it.   The WEF’s Yuval Noah Harari believes that “in a few years there might be religions that are actually correct”, and he is convinced that AI could even be used to “write a new Bible”…   Harari then dropped a bomb: “AI can create new ideas; [it] can even write a new Bible.”   He added that “throughout history, religions dreamt about having a book written by a superhuman intelligence, by a non-human entity” and that “in a few years there might be religions that are actually correct … just think about a religion whose holy book is written by an AI. That could be a reality in a few years.”   If millions of people around the globe started looking to a “superhuman intelligence” to shape their core beliefs, the potential for abuse would be off the charts.   Whoever was in control of that “superhuman intelligence” would potentially have an army of adherents ready and willing to do whatever they were commanded.   It would be difficult for me to overstate the danger that AI poses for our society.   In the wrong hands, such technology could result in death and destruction on an epic scale.   Last month, a group of AI scientists signed a statement warning about “the risk of extinction from AI”, but it was almost entirely ignored by the mainstream media…   On May 30, a research organization called the Center for AI Safety released a 22-word statement signed by a number of prominent “AI scientists,” including Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI; Demis Hassabis, the CEO of Google DeepMind; and Geoffrey Hinton, who has been described as the “godfather” of AI. It reads:   Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war.   This statement made headlines around the world, with many media reports suggesting that experts now believe “AI could lead to human extinction,” to quote a CNN article.   Given enough time, artificial intelligence would change our society in ways that we cannot even imagine right now.   But will we ever get to that stage?   The truth is that we have reached an absolutely critical turning point in our history, and humanity is rapidly running out of time.   Some people believe that artificial intelligence will save us from ourselves and will help to usher in a new golden age of peace and prosperity.   Others are entirely convinced that artificial intelligence has the potential to greatly contribute to the fall of humanity.   Either way, the pace of change is only going to accelerate in the years ahead.   We are moving into times that will truly look like something out of a science fiction movie, and I would suggest that is not good news at all.

Thought Wars: Is America Bent on Self-Destruction? – By Hal Lindsey - https://harbingersdaily.com/thought-wars-is-america-bent-on-self-destruction/   1838 was a time of great turmoil in America. In January of that year, a 28-year-old Illinois State Representative addressed a prominent Springfield debating society. The tall, lanky lawyer called his subject, “The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions.” His name was Abraham Lincoln.   Deeply concerned about his nation’s future, Lincoln asked, “At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined… could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”   Even in an era of intercontinental ballistic missiles able to cross oceans in mere minutes, inner corruption is still more dangerous to America than attack from the outside. Inner weakness attracts aggression. “If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher.”   Today, our nation seems bent on self-destruction. We see it in legislatures, executive mansions, courts, and educational institutions. It has metastasized into music studios, film sets, and libraries. Publishing houses, television networks, and corporate boardrooms also seem bent on destroying the American rights, ideals, and morality that made their prosperity possible.   Destructive choices are not limited to the wealthy and powerful. They’re also being made by 15-year-olds standing on street corners and by 60-year-olds deciding what television program to watch. They are being decided by Christians who know they should read the Bible, but place it so low on their list of priorities that it rarely gets opened.   We hear a great deal about culture wars. But culture is an outer reflection of our inward selves. The real war is about thought, and thoughts are largely a matter of choice. Yes, some thoughts come unbidden. But we get to choose whether to entertain and nourish those thoughts, or not. 2 Corinthians 10:5 says to take “every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.”   We can choose to focus our thinking on that which will strengthen and nourish our souls in Christ. Psalms 1:1-3 says, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; And in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, That bringeth forth his fruit in his season; His leaf also shall not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”   Philippians 4:8 says, “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”   The world works overtime to corrupt our thoughts and those of our young. But the Bible says we can choose our thoughts. We see the terrible things being taught in schools, and we wonder what we can do. The answer is to allow the Holy Spirit to work in us through His holy word.   Even if you are physically frail, you can be a giant in Christ — speaking persuasively, praying effectually, and walking in the power of His great love. Start by letting “your mind dwell on these things.”

Nearing Midnight: June: The Holy Month of Pride – Todd Strandberg - https://www.raptureready.com/category/nearing-midnight/   In late May, I started seeing news articles that declared June LGBTQ Pride Month. I thought this was a new thing, but it has actually been building up for a couple of decades. US President Bill Clinton was the person who got the ball rolling. In June 1999, he declared the anniversary of the Stonewall riots every June in America as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month. In 2009, President Barack Obama declared June LGBT Pride Month. On 1 June 2021, President Joe Biden issued an official presidential proclamation recognizing June as Pride Month.   Since about 80% of the population has no interest in these alternative sexual lifestyles, you might like to know who is financially backing this campaign. Three key main drivers are the largest investment firms of Black Rock, Vanguard, and State Street. These companies control $20 trillion in assets. When Joe Biden was VP, he secretly met with them, saying they have greater power than the Democratic party to advance Left-wing social agendas.   Since they sit on many boards, through their ownership of millions of company shares, they can force firms to adopt sexual diversity platforms. It doesn’t matter that sales were down that quarter. Activists want to know why the company doesn’t have any black lesbians in management.   If Freddie Mercury, Rock Hudson, and Liberace were still alive, they would likely be upset that the people managing their savings were fixated on sexual matters. A homosexual 20 years ago would think the only agenda with their investments should be focused on making them grow in value. It is actually illegal for CEOs to conduct transactions that will harm the value of a company. Their duty is to increase shareholder net worth, and they can be sued for failing in their duties.   The job of Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen should be to look after the nation’s economy. While major banks are failing and the danger of a national debt defect loomed closer, Yellen found time to host several LGBTQ events.   While federal agencies have been tripping over themselves to pledge allegiance to queer activism, they couldn’t be bothered to recognize the fallen troops who make our freedom possible. Despite a government-wide tweet-fest over Pride Month, most of them ignore Memorial Day altogether.   Not to be outdone, education officials decided to change their government seal to the “progress, pride” flag, paying special homage to transgenderism—while the Marines, Air Force, and Space Force hyped everything from rainbow bullets to astronauts “queering” the moon.   The Biden administration is operating under a demonic delusion that it is working to make the government more reflect the American people. At this stage, the left can only work to make the US look more like Sodom and Gomorrah.   They want to achieve diversity by hiring people who represent the rainbow flag. If they give a job to a transexual, they should then employ 100 straight guys. We could have 30% of an agency identify as queer, and it still wouldn’t be enough.   Elon Musk is a rare island of sanity on most issues. He celebrated the first day of pride month by promising to lobby against child genital mutilation. “This is a major problem. I will be actively lobbying to criminalize making severe, irreversible changes to children below the age of consent. Shame on those who advocate this! It is utterly contemptible,” he said.   I have no personal issues with gay people. If they think God endorses their lifestyle, that’s between them and their creator. The problem comes when they demand that everyone endorse their sexual practices. Colorado baker Jack Phillips has lost two major cases because he refuses to bake a cake with a homosexual theme.   No one should be forced to create something that violates their fundamental beliefs. It would be crazy to think that a Nazi could go into a Jewish bakery and demand that they make him a cake that looks like the crematoria at Auschwitz. Christians can be compelled to violate God’s law because the promotion of evil is one of Satan’s highest priorities.   It just shows how far America has fallen when we have a whole month dedicated to celebrating sexual immorality. Soon every day will be Pride Day. The Bible warns that when a society is at a certain stage of perversion, he will lift his hand of protection, and it will die of self-destruction.   “Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error” (Romans 1:24-27 NIV).

Daily Jot: Speaking from the abundance of the heart - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com   We live in very divisive times. It seems that we as a society have lost what it means to be neighborly and agreeable. If there is the slightest disagreement on issues or worldview, there is an immediate assumption that the person is an enemy. We see it every day in the headlines. This division is apparent on news programs, in politics, even in and quite possibly, especially, in the church. People are vocal about it. Disagreement shows up in social media, sometimes in the most vile of terms. Then when the offender is called out on their rant, they try to say they didn’t mean it the way it came across. But words have meaning, and we as followers of Christ must weigh them with care.   In Luke 6:45, the Lord said, “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil; for of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaks.” Leviticus discusses a leprosy-like condition called tzara’at. Those who spoke evil of another would break out in tzara’at. They had to go to the priest for repentance and healing. Called lashon hara, meaning “evil tongue,” speaking evil of someone, slandering them, libeling them, passing gossip, were all forbidden by the Lord God. Moses, when he told God that the people wouldn’t believe that God had sent him, turned white with tzara’at for speaking evil about God’s people. Miriam was also stricken with tzara’at when she spoke critically of Moses. This is very serious, especially for leaders.   We are all leaders and priests as believers in Christ. As in 1 Peter 2:9, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people: that you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.” Verse 12 says, “Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.” We, therefore are held to a higher standard and what we speak and say, or how we say it, is part of our accountability to God. Proverbs 18:21 says that death and life are in the power of the tongue. James writes that the tongue is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. He draws on the words of Christ about not having bitter and envying strife in our heart resulting in evil speech.   There is a fine line between speaking evil and holding accountability. People attack us, call us names, label us with the worst of their own hearts’ intent. They accuse us of what is actually in their own heart. They lie. They demean. They bully. They call evil good and good evil. So how are we supposed to stand fast and overcome evil with good? It starts with our speech. It’s easy to get angry. It’s not so easy to respond in love. Yes, we can comment on issues and positions and constructively criticize. But personal attacks that offer no value other than making us feel better are not where a royal priesthood should go. Avoid anger. Educate. Meet emotional accusations with truth in love. As Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 5:20 that “we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us.” Let the abundance of your heart be shown.

Daily Devotion: Bring Them Up - by Greg Laurie – www.harvest.org   Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord. —Ephesians 6:4   https://harvest.org/resources/devotion/bring-them-up/ - Listen   A while back I was at a restaurant with my wife, and we were enjoying the view as the sun began to set. Then I glanced at a table nearby where a young family was sitting.   The dad was on his phone, the mother was on her phone, and the baby was on a tablet—in fact, there was a tablet holder in the stroller!   I thought, “What are we doing to these kids?” We put them in front of devices and bombard them with information, and I wonder whether their brains are forming properly. Are they even learning to read social cues and communicate?   What concerns me is that a lot of parents are leaving their kids to themselves. Yet it’s the parents’ job to raise their own children. God created the family, and He loves the family. And as someone has pointed out, a family can survive without a nation, but a nation cannot survive without the family.   Ephesian 6:4 reminds us, “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord” (NLT). The phrase “bring them up” means “to nourish.”   We should protect our children, watch over them, and help them process what they’re being exposed to.   Moses said to the Israelites, “And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up” (Deuteronomy 6:6–7 NLT).   As a parent, nothing can happen through you until it has first happened to you. You cannot take your children any further spiritually than you have gone yourself.

Why bible prophecy is important

 

Why Bible Prophecy Is Important - James Pannafino - https://perspectiveinprophecy.com   Isaiah 42:9   Everything I prophesied has come true, and now I will prophesy again. I will tell you the future before it happens.   Prophecy is a major part of divine revelation…   • Many people are surprised to learn that 27% (up to 33%) of the Bible was prophecy at the time it was given. • Prophecy being accurately fulfilled gives us confidence in both the truth of our faith and future • Much of the Bible was written to not only tell us of what is to come, but more so to prepare us for our own future. Therefore it would be most wise to study the prophetic scriptures as if our life depended on it… because, it really does!   2 Peter 1:21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.   God promises a special blessing to those who study and pay attention to prophecy…   Revelation 1:3 Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.   Jesus Christ is the primary subject of prophecy…   Revelation 19:10 Hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.   Prophecy helps us understand our world today…   The rapidly increasing tempo of change in modern life has given the entire world a sense of impending crisis.   • Our world today faces convulsions and changes that threaten our very  existence (e.g., constant turmoil in the Middle East, economic collapse,  radical jihadists, nuclear proliferation, weather related disasters, the  potential of catastrophic global plagues, and one escalating crisis after  another). • Modern man is asking questions about the future as never before. • They are solemn questions; they are searching questions. • The Bible is certainly the best place to look for answers regarding  what’s going on in our world today… and prophecy spells it out in  ‘black and white’   Prophecy reveals the sovereignty of God over history…   2 Peter 1:19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it   • Bible prophecy proves, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that the God of  the Bible is the one true God who alone is sovereign over history! • He not only rules the ages, but He is also in total control over the  events of your life too • What comfort and encouragement it is to know that God is in control   1 Thessalonians 4:17-18 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words   Prophecy proves the truth of God’s Word…   • Just as Bible prophecy establishes that God is the 'True God', it also proves that God’s Word is the 'True Word'. • Simply put, only the Bible authenticates itself through 100% accurate prophetic utterances, proving both its relevance and authority for all of mankind.   Prophecy helps us understand the whole Bible…   Understanding God’s prophetic program for this world gives a person the best overall framework possible for comprehending the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.   Prophecy gives us a proper perspective in life…   • Bible prophecy is important because it tells us the end of the story and  our destiny. • It reveals that just as our world had a definite beginning (Gen. 1:1), it  also has an ending. • This world will not continue on forever through infinite cycles of history.   Prophecy is a powerful tool for evangelism…   • Many wonder what’s going to happen to this world. Biblical prophecy  gives the answers! • There’s no doubt that people are fascinated with the future…Psychic  hotlines, tabloid newspapers and astrologers make a living preying  upon man’s innate interest in the future.   Prophecy can help insulate people from heresy…   Think of all the false teachers who have gained a following by appealing to Bible prophecy:   William Miller (The Great Disappointment)… Jehovah’s Witnesses… Joseph Smith (Mormonism/LDS)… David Koresh (Branch Davidians)… Heaven’s Gate cult… Harold Camping (May 21, 2011), Edgar Whisenant (88 Reasons), Sun Myung Moon, et al.   • They all deceptively appealed to Bible prophecies of the future to gain a listening ear, and all were in error, but those who understand authentic Bible prophecy will not be deceived.   For more information on what the Bible teaches about the days in which we live go to: Perspective In Prophecy

Hosea Can You See? - by Bill Perkins - https://compass.org/hosea-can-you-see/   The wicked plots against the righteous And gnashes at him with his teeth. The Lord laughs at him, For He sees his day is coming. Psa. 37:12-13   Hosea Can You See?   Watching the signs of the times, or as Chuck Missler liked to say, the “times of the signs,” it sure is exciting these days watching so much Bible prophecy being fulfilled. It confirms we’re really close to our exhilarating exit!   For example, I’m convinced scripture teaches that the Mark of the Beast comes about post-Rapture, inside the 7-Year Tribulation.   Yet here we are, seeing the implementation of a trackable digital currency beginning here in the United States in less than a month.   Granted, it will probably take a year or two to phase out cash and get everyone used to getting permission to use their digits. But it’s now being implemented. We’re not that far away from humans being 100% controlled by one person or entity.   If you’re unfamiliar with the coming digital currency, CLICK HERE for a good summary.   This new digital dollar is one of many ways the Globalists/Satanists are using to destroy America—the last obstacle to implementing a one-world government.   Leo Hohmann holds nothing back in this article— CLICK HERE   And all this fulfilled prophecy begs the question—how long can the Church Age last? To answer this question, we'll look at the Day/Age theory and Hosea 6.   Day/Age Theory   More and more people are understanding that the seven, 24-hour days in the Biblical Creation week are a template for 7000 years of humans on the earth. God assigned humans 7000 years from Adam/Creation to the end of Jesus' 1000 reign as King on earth.   A single day being equated with 1000 years is referenced both in the Old and New Testaments.   But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day. 2Pet. 3:8   For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it passes by… Psa. 90:4a   We know from the genealogies laid out in the Bible there were almost exactly 4000 years from Adam to the birth of Christ. And we know there are 1000 years of Jesus’ reign on earth before God brings in a new heaven and earth.   So if the day/age theory is correct that the Lord has determined 7,000 years of time for humans to be on the earth before the sinless New Heaven and Earth are created, then the Church Age is approximately 2000 years long—and soon to end with the rescue of the Believers.   Dave Reagan did a great job of explaining this in his Steeling the Mind Bible Conference presentation “The Millennial Age Theory.” You can watch it on Compass TV CLICK HERE   Hosea 6 A 2000-year Church Age is consistent with one fascinating Bible Prophecy in Hosea 6:1-2.   This unique prophecy is referring to the last three days of the 7-Day Creation Week model.   So Hosea 6 simply confirms that Israel will be “torn” and “wounded” for about two days or 2000 years after they crucified their God-sent Messiah. But the Lord will “bandage” them up and bring them back to their land as prophesied in Ezekiel 37.   Then the Lord will "revive" Israel and make them His focus again in the Tribulation. Israel will be laid low and humbled during the 7 years and will repent and “return” to the Lord where they will "live before Him" in the Millennium.   Currently in Israel there are only a few hundred Believers. But the Lord will get the Jew's attention in the Tribulation, open the eyes of millions and raise them up to live in His presence as He reigns from Jerusalem as King of the Earth for 1000 years.   So getting back to our “How much longer could the Church Age last” question… if the Church Age is about 2000 years long, and it began on Pentecost in 33 AD, it would be likely that the Rapture would happen between now and 2033.   The Day of the Lord   The Old Testament includes several verses that confirm the Day of the Lord includes the 7-year Tribulation. Here are two examples:   Behold, the day of the LORD is coming, cruel, with fury and burning anger, to make the land a desolation; Is. 13:9   Alas for the day! For the day of the LORD is near, and it will come as destruction from the Almighty. Joel 1:15   And Revelation 20 says six times in six straight verses that the post-Tribulation Millennial Reign of Christ is 1000 years long. That means Jesus’ 1000-year reign doesn’t contain the 7-year Tribulation. It's a separate and distinct dispensation or time period.   So, the Tribulation is 7 years sandwiched between the Church Age and the Millennium.   We don't know what year the Rapture will take place. But looking at the prophetic signs today, like the implementation of the digital dollar, it seems a lot more likely to be closer than 2033.   If my analysis is correct, the Rapture could happen anytime between now and 2033, maybe even this year. That’s exciting! As Andy Woods likes to say, there’s not one problem a Believer has that Rapture won’t solve!   There is so much so quickly falling in place today that we’ve committed to randomly mailing 100,000 Millions Missing? booklets in July-August this year. It's a guide to what to do, and not do, if you miss the Rapture. We're mailing mostly to addresses in the USA, but we're sending a few thousand overseas too. For info or to read the booklet, CLICK HERE   If you wish to add a name and postal mailing address to mail a Millions Missing! booklet mailing, email it to staff@compass.org   And if we’re still here next year, we’ll mail another 100,000, Lord willing.   And the wolf will dwell with the lamb, And the leopard will lie down with the young goat, And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little boy will lead them. Also the cow and the bear will graze, Their young will lie down together, And the lion will eat straw like the ox. The nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra, And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den. They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD As the waters cover the sea. Is. 11:6-9   (Those who think we're currently living in the Millennium have a hard time explaining the above verses listing specific characteristics.)

Trusting The Untrustworthy & Bowing to The Pressure – By Amir Tsarfati - https://harbingersdaily.com/worldview-with-amir-tsarfati-who-will-bow-to-the-pressure/   Early yesterday morning, Israel attacked two Iranian targets in Syria from the air. One strike hit near the Damascus International Airport. Just hours before the attack, a Mahan Airlines cargo plane landed at the airport. Mahan is often used by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to transfer weapons and ammunition to their proxy militias in Syria. The other target was the Syrian Army’s 1st Division Headquarters in al-Kiswah, south of Damascus, where there is known to be a large presence of pro-Iranian Shia militias.   Israel Enters Largest-Ever Arms Deal   In a deal that exceeds any Israeli arms contract in the past, Germany has agreed to purchase Israel’s Arrow-3 missile defense system for 4 billion euros. The Arrow-3 is designed to intercept exo-atmospheric missiles that fly out of reach of the Patriot or IRIS-T systems. Delivery of the weapons is slated for the end of 2025.   Israeli Company Unveils Hypersonic Missile Interception System   On the topic of Israeli weapons, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd., a company based in Haifa, announced yesterday that it has designed the first-ever hypersonic missile interceptor.   A week after Iran rolled out its Fattah hypersonic missile which it claimed was unstoppable, Rafael revealed the SkySonic which is specifically designed to make missiles like the Fattah “stoppable”. The missile interception system is well into its development and should be undergoing its first test flights very soon. Poor ayatollahs, always seem to be one step behind.   Arab Israelis Killed in Nazareth   Five Arab Israelis were shot dead in Nazareth. These deaths, however, were not related to terrorism, but to criminal activities. Crime and violence continue to grow in Israel’s Arab communities. Just hours before this deadly incident, a 3-year-old girl and a 30-year-old man were shot and critically injured in a different Nazareth suburb.   Iran Aids Russia with Drone Factory even as US Pushes Nuclear Deal   A White House report claims that Iran is providing materials for Russia to build an attack drone facility east of Moscow. These drones are designed to be used in the war against Ukraine. This report comes from the same White House that is rushing to the table to sign a new nuclear deal with Iran.   Not only is the Biden administration prepared to unfreeze billions of dollars for Iran, but they are waiving sanctions so Iraq can release $2.7 billion to pay off debt to Tehran. South Korea is allegedly next on the US plan to refill Iran’s coffers with the payback of old debt. Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not bow to US pressure to make nice with the ayatollahs. Said the PM, “Our position is clear: Israel will not be bound by any deal with Iran and will continue to defend itself.”   Breakdown of New Nuclear Deal with Iran   The New York Times offered a summary of the new Iran nuclear deal, an agreement some in Iran are calling a “political cease-fire.” Iran agrees to: 1) not enrich uranium beyond the 60% level, while keeping all that it has already enriched, 2) halt its deadly attacks on American officials in Syria and Iraq through its proxy militias, 3) cooperate more fully with international nuclear inspectors, and 4) refrain from selling ballistic missiles to Russia. The United States agrees to: 1) not tighten the sanctions anymore, 2) allow foreign tankers to carry Iranian oil, and 3) hold back from advancing new punitive resolutions in the UN or IAEA for Iran’s nuclear activities. There is also a direct transaction between the two countries.   The US will release billions of dollars of frozen Iranian assets to go to humanitarian purposes. In return, Tehran will release three Iranian-American prisoners. While this agreement has not been signed yet, many officials in the international community believe its enactment is imminent.   Some may look at this and think, “Wow, that’s not too bad of a deal.” But the fly in the ointment is that, based on track record, the chance of the terrorist regime in Iran holding up their side of this deal is absolutely nil.   Iranian-Backed Militias and US Prepare for Battle in Syria   Iran is arming its militants in Syria for attacks against the US. The goal is to get America out of Syria, and, ultimately, out of the Middle East. On the US side, they are strengthening with new weapons systems in preparation for an escalation. The question is who will attack first?   World Economic Forum Advisor Suggests New AI-Based Religion   Religion has gotten it all wrong, at least according to World Economic Forum (WEF) senior advisor Yuval Noah Harari. Part of the problem has been the human element that has mucked it all up, especially when it comes to the Bible and other religious texts. So, maybe it’s time to take the fallible human aspect out and trust the infallible. But for Harari, the infallible is not God, it is artificial intelligence (AI).   “In a few years, there might be religions that are actually correct,” said Harari in a recent interview. “Just think about a religion whose holy book is written by an AI. That could be reality in a few years…. AI can create new ideas; [it] can even write a new Bible.” Apparently, Harari has forgotten that all AI has a beginning. And at the creation point of AI what do we find? A fallible human typing its code. Seems to me that the only place we can find infallibility is if we leave the realm of the created and look to the Creator.

Global Digital Passports Hold Grave Implications For Americans And The World – By Tim Moore - https://harbingersdaily.com/global-digital-passports-holds-grave-implications-for-americans-and-all-people-around-the-world/   Certain powerful people worldwide have been advocating for a global government. Such governance would allow for only a small group of individuals to control the entire planet. World domination has long been the goal of despots and dictators throughout human history. Today we are seeing a global government being ushered in — right before our very eyes!   To help us understand this shifting political landscape, I sought out a very special guest who has just returned from a meeting of the World Health Organization in Geneva, Switzerland. Congresswoman Michele Bachmann served for a number of years in the U.S. House of Representatives before running for President of the United States. She continues to serve as the dean of the Robertson School of Government and remains a strong voice for conservative and Christian principles here in America and around the world.   Congresswoman Bachmann, please tell us what you experienced when you traveled to Geneva, Switzerland to join the audience listening in to all of the plans being presented by the World Health Organization (W.H.O.).   Michele Bachmann: I went to Geneva for the purpose of watching, observing, and seeing what the World Health Organization is presenting. They weren’t shy nor reticent about telling us exactly how their plans have been proceeding.   What was very sad to me is that there wasn’t one member of the U.S. House of Representatives there attending this meeting. There wasn’t one member of the United States Senate who was there. The politicians manage to fly their airplanes to attend World Economic Forum meetings, but they didn’t attend this important meeting.   It’s a shame, for this meeting presented such profound consequences for every person on the earth because the plan envisions every single person coming under the dominion and control of the World Health Organization. Just one week after the World Health Assembly concluded, they dropped an absolute bombshell. A press letter went out that claimed the European Union has already developed a global digital passport that would regulate our health status and so the ability for people to take transportation. This global digital passport, which essentially would be a scannable QR code issued by your mobile phone, would reveal if the individual is in compliance with the mandates of the World Health Organization and so has permission to be able to travel and have the freedom to move about.   The World Health Organization didn’t wait to pass amendments or seek a global treaty. W.H.O. announced on June 5, 2023, that they are adopting the system Europe has already come up with. This decision will automatically cover 80 out of the 194 countries. So, the question is, when will the United States enter into this system?   How do you enforce a global government? The answer is through a global digital passport. This has become a reality!   W.H.O. announced that once it takes control over the European digital passport, this will be the first building block, presumably soon followed by merging your digital currency and digital health records as well. Your entire life will eventually be merged into a single digital QR code.   When will the mandated global digital passport become effective? June of 2023. In other words, right now! This global digital passport is right now in effect.   Media Blackout   And to think that our own Mainstream Media has largely ignored this huge story. This passport holds grave implications for Americans and all people around the world, and yet the Mainstream Media has been distracting us with Trump indictments and UFOs. I remember how difficult it was flying to Canada during Covid, so think how difficult it will soon be to fly anywhere.   Michele Bachmann: Yes, within a year from now, our lives will be completely upended. Absent a miracle or an intervening hand from the Lord, we’re looking at less than a year from now having this fully global digital passport being enforced on everyone in the world.   We’re past the passport being envisioned. It’s already been created! Now it’s a matter of getting every nation on board with it.   When you look at the 307 proposed amendments to the International Health Rules and the Global Pandemic Treaty, both of them mandate compliance by member states. They lay out how members are mandated to comply. And, they also talk about how committees have been set up to stop anybody from talking about this rollout.   And yes, you’re right, it’s really shocking that the Mainstream Media hasn’t been talking about this, nor cable media, or even social media. No one from the Mainstream Media has been talking about this monumental restriction coming to our privacy and travel rights. Only through alternative media sources is the word getting out. In my experience, more than half of the population doesn’t trust the current political and media systems. They only know something about this power grab through alternative media. That’s why the proposed amendments to the Global Pandemic Treaty envision shutting down all alternative media. Everyone has to be in compliance with the message given out by the rising global government.   I believe within the year you’ll start experiencing these restrictions on your speech. So, that’s why we need to use our freedom of speech now for as long as we still have it.   Role of the Watchman   Ezekiel 33 talks about the requirements of being a watchman. Watchmen proclaim a message of warning, but it is up to those who hear them to choose to listen or not. Watchmen are only responsible for proclaiming the warning, not whether the people heed it. Today, Congresswoman Bachmann, you are a watchwoman proclaiming a warning, but the world isn’t listening. They didn’t listen to Jesus Christ and His warning about the consequence of sin being eternal death, after all.   God’s commission to Ezekiel wasn’t just for the prophet, but for all who are called the Children of God. There are threats rising in the world that often are underreported by the Mainstream Media. I’m so glad that you educated yourself to warn us of this imminent threat to our God-given freedoms. I appreciate you being obedient to the Word of God. You inspire me and the Remnant Christians who listen to you.   For Christians living in these perilous times, make sure you stay grounded in the Word of God. Keep educating yourself so as to be discerning in these dark days, not being confused and chasing after every fearful thing that’s happening. Know wholeheartedly that God is in control.   If you don’t already know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, I urge you to put your faith in Him today. In knowing that Jesus will win in the end, and so too His children, then all of these terrible events that would trouble the heart of someone who does not know Jesus as their Savior will roll off your back. Our security rests in Jesus Christ who guarantees His faithful eternal life.   We know that, according to Scripture, this world will grow increasingly dark. But, the light of revelation has already dawned in the hearts of every person who knows Jesus Christ, who is the light of the world. Even in these dark times, we can hold on to “the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ” (Titus 2:13).   And, while the time is short, speak out — bear witness — as a watchman on the wall.

Daily Jot: The American Chronicles: The John Vincent story - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com   The camping universe is an amazing melting pot of people. To Chris and I, it represents a great cross-section of America and its goodness. Places like the Americamp in Ashland, Va., serve as an example. Young folks with their families and dogs out playing corn hole or tossing the football—and if the corn hole game isn’t exciting enough, they make it more like a hockey/football/corn hole fusion. Americans, especially American kids, are creative. Us older ones enjoy our campfire and holding hands with our spouse while walking the dog through the winding camp roads among aged oak and evergreen trees. Our journey to Ashland, like so many stops along the way, begat another story—The John Vincent story.   We had an appointment at Airstream of Virginia to take care of a couple of maintenance issues with our travel van. While waiting in the showroom as the expert technicians took care of business, there was an older gentleman waiting as well. When I say older, I mean older than us—which by any account is gently matured! We struck up a conversation. He said he had a 2009 Airstream trailer and brought it in because the refrigerator needed some work. He said he normally would do the work himself, but he felt it would be a lot less hassle to just bring it in and have it fixed. Come to find out, he had been camping since he was about five years old and had camped in 49 states—all except Hawaii. He had also backpacked the Appalachian Trail and in Alaska and Canada. But that was the short of it.   He began telling about how in the 1960s he and his wife and kids trekked across the United States, camping out of their car. His story was getting more and more interesting. He said back then they didn’t think anything of stopping somewhere and letting the kids sleep in the car, while he and his wife pitched a tent. They did this heading West to California. He also spoke of travelling several times to Alaska, first when the roads were merely dirt paths through today’s more modern era. This man was a true adventurist, and as he is telling his story I’m wondering how old he must be. He looked fit as any man, youthful enthusiasm, that special glint in his eyes and spring in his step. After a while, we decided to introduce ourselves—seems that happens a lot—we talk and share great stories, then finally find out each other’s names.   John and Barbara Vincent have been married 64 years. Together they have camped in 49 states, beginning out of their car, then a pop-up trailer, then a larger camper, bringing them to the 14-year old Airstream. But there is so much more to this 85-year old super star. He and Barbara have pioneered a church planting initiative in remote areas of Mexico—something they are still doing. He had so many wonderful testimonies about connecting people with the love of Christ. His card, quoting Christ in Matthew 14:6 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me,” also says, “Retired—Now Working for Jesus.” Somehow, I think John’s been doing that most of his life. He is an inspiration and a remarkable man.

Daily Devotion: A Visible Link - by Greg Laurie – www.harvest.org   Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. —Deuteronomy 6:7   https://harvest.org/resources/devotion/a-visible-link/ - Listen   When my son Christopher was born, I remember thinking, “How am I going to be a father?” My mother had been married and divorced many times. I never had a real father in my life, though a man named Oscar Laurie adopted me. He provided as much of a fatherly relationship as he could in the relatively short time that we spent together.   So when I became a father myself, I had to look to Scripture. And I sought out other fathers to learn from.   Fathers are a visible link between their children and the Father in Heaven. Many of the attitudes children develop toward God will be connected to the attitudes they have toward their fathers. The potential impact of a good and godly father is almost immeasurable.   But fathers, you cannot lead your children any further than you have come yourself. Pastor and author Andrew Murray wrote, “The secret of home rule is self-rule, first being ourselves what we want our children to be.”   First we must develop our own relationship with God.   Moses, speaking to the Israelites, said, “And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up” (Deuteronomy 6:5–7 NLT).   This is a picture of parents who are spending a lot of time with their children. We need to teach our children not only by what we say but by how we live.   Are you walking as closely with the Lord as you could? Is there room for a deeper commitment? Then I encourage you to make it before this day is through.
