The population of the world is becoming more isolated and unplugged from reality. Even in most third-world countries the population lives far better than a century ago. Most people have access to the internet via phone or computer. But with all of our advances in technology, knowledge, and instant gratification, we are being groomed by the elites and satanic powers to be dependent on government and authority for everything.

But our pop-culture has gone from simple survival to a digital pacifier. The last few generations have become so self-centered and entitled that we have introduced a large gap between freedom and security. People have been manipulated for decades (centuries actually) to think and make decisions in certain ways that are often not in their best interests. As a result we have a culture war between polar opposites: conservatives and progressives.

With social issues mounting up and unrest growing daily around the world, many don’t see any kind of future. These people feel ignored and burdened down with not just social acceptance but basic survival. Many are looking to government, large corporations, and social organizations for solutions to a far-reaching feeling of despair. With the talks of AI and trans-humanism becoming more mainstream, some see that as the answer to the world’s pain.

Israel: God’s Prophetic Timetable

The Middle East has been a focal point of tension for centuries. Israel’s reinstitution as a nation in 1948 marked the first major Biblical prophetic sign to be fulfilled. The generation that sees these signs will not die until all of signs come to pass of the end-times.

The Evil World Dictator

Dictionary image for deception (Mick Haupt)We are told that an end-time world leader will emerge through a promise of peace (Daniel 9:27). This will happen during the last seven years before Christ returns (the 70th week prophecy). He will offer peace, tranquility and stability to the world (the “many”), which will sound like music to the ears of a restless and hopeless people. But it will be limited peace, for after three and a half years he will show his true colors when he breaks the peace covenant with Israel. He will stop the sacrifices in the holy place (the Jewish temple that hasn’t been built yet), and then publicly standing in that temple and declare himself to be God.

His rule will come at a great price though—your freedom and your soul. He will speak with cunningness and charisma to sway billions of people. In 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 it says he will come to power through the power of satan. For the Lord will cause the world to believe a great lie—that this man is the savior of humanity—and most will quickly and cheerfully surrender to his system of governance. He will mesmerize the world, for he will call down fire from heaven (Revelations 13:11-14) and will require full obedience in order to survive. Everyone will be required to take his mark, which is probably a microchip or possibly a brain implant, in order to get paid or buy necessities.  But all who give in, even in fear, will be tormented forever (Revelations 14:9-12).

Another co-ruler, the false prophet, will likely be a religious personality that will work with the beast to convince the world to follow the beast.  But this false prophet will be the watchdog and will enforce compliance. In Revelation 13:14-18, it says he will create an image of the beast (likely an AI personality) and give it life.  This image will be digitally connected to the world and will be able to enforce the laws. Those who rebel against him will be hunted and killed. Many believers will be killed and persecuted. But the suffering will not compare to the glory Christ will reveal in those who endure and do not fall away.

Conclusion

Time is running out. Now is the time for seeking the Lord. He is all merciful and even sent His Son Jesus Christ to pay for your sins so that you could be saved and forgiven. There is still time now to repent and turn to Jesus. There is a Savior who sacrificed himself to forgive you of your sins. He wants to be your savior. If you believe on Him as your savior, and believe that his death on the cross covers your sins, you must repent of your sins and follow Jesus. He will save you and give you the Holy Spirit to guide you. You will have eternal life with Him living in perfection. Or, you can continue living for yourself. You will have to bear the punishment alone for your sin against God. “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
