Could AI Be The Image Of The Beast Described In Revelation?

By End Time Headlines

Did John the Revelator see a coming “AI god” over 1900 years ago?

(OPINION) The Bible warns that in the time of the end during the Tribulation, there will rise a man mentioned in the Book of Revelation thirteen that scholars identify as the “False Prophet” that will perform great signs so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. He also deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast. He will then command those who dwell on the earth to create an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. The Bible also reveals that he will be granted the power to give breath to this image, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

There are a few key points in this passage that many people skim over without giving them a second glance but I believe they are very important clues to what is coming in the near future. Notice here that the False Prophet will instruct those on Earth to create this “Image of the Beast”. The Greek word used for “Image” in this passage is a word derived from the English word “Icon”. By definition, this is a person or thing regarded as a representative symbol or as worthy of veneration. This “Image” will literally be made in the image of the Beast or the Antichrist to be worshipped. So we see here that a group of people on Earth will be responsible for the creation of this image that has been instructed and supervised by the False Prophet. Now comes the most chilling part of this and that is the fact that this False Prophet will be granted power to give breath to this image that the image of the beast should both speak and cause humanity to worship it. I have always wondered how this would look in our generation. What technology could exist to enable this event to come to pass? Could what we are witnessing with Artifical INteligence be the clue to how this will be possible?

After-School 'Satan Club' Takes New Aim At Archenemy: Christian Clubs For Kids

Federal Judge Rules That Pennsylvania School District Must Host After School Satan Club

Ara Macdonald, www.thegatewaypundit.com

The Satanic Temple’s children’s club is being pushed in school districts that host Christian clubs — with the full backing of the far-left American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) who filed the suit on the organization’s behalf.

The Satanists argue that if the school allows one religion to host events, they must allow all.

“In a victory for free speech and religious freedom, a federal court has ruled that the Saucon Valley School District must allow the After School Satan Club to meet in district facilities,” the ACLU announced in a tweet on Monday.

Should Kindergarten Have A Drag Queen Story Time? Montana And Florida Say 'No'!!

Montana becomes first state to ban drag reading sessions for children in public schools and libraries after Governor said it is 'wildly inappropriate for little kids to be exposed to sexualized content'

Montana has become the first state to specifically ban people dressed in drag from reading books to children at public schools and libraries. Republican governor Greg Gianforte signed the bill on Monday because he 'believes it's wildly inappropriate for little kids, especially preschoolers and kids in elementary school, to be exposed to sexualized content,' spokesperson Kaitlin Price said. But the law is unique among efforts by states to block drag performances as it does not require a sexual element to a performance for it to be banned.  Bills in Florida and Tennessee also appear to try to ban drag reading events, but both require the performances to be sexual in nature, which could be up for interpretation. Both bills also face legal challenges. House Bill 359 was co-sponsored by more than half of the Republican-controlled legislature and took effect immediately after it was signed. 

The bill initially sought to ban minors from attending drag performances, which were defined as shows that tended to 'excite lustful thoughts.'  The legislation was later amended to ban minors from attending sexually oriented or obscene performances on public property. The bill's sponsor, Republican Rep. Braxton Mitchell, said he sponsored the bill 'because drag shows in recent years have been specifically aimed at children,' and spoke of online videos that show children at drag shows. 'In my humble opinion, there's no such thing as a family-friendly drag show,' Mitchell said in April. He suggested that drag story hours and other family-oriented drag performances were part of a 'sick agenda' damaging to a child's 'psychology and general welfare'.

Did The Covid-19 Pandemic Affect Mental Health? New Gallup Poll

GLOOM BOOM: Depression rates in the US hit a record high, Gallup poll shows

The current economic and political climate is enough to make anyone feel down, but for many Americans, the problem is far more serious as a new poll shows an increasing number of Americans are being officially diagnosed with clinical depression. A newly released Gallup poll found that the percentage of American adults who report they have received a diagnosis of depression at some time in their life has hit 29 percent. This is a full 10 percentage points greater than 2015’s figure. Meanwhile, the percentage of Americans who report either being treated for depression in the past or currently receiving treatment has risen to 17.8 percent, marking a rise of seven points in the same time period. The poll involved more than 5,000 American adults and was conducted during the last week of February. It is part of the ongoing Gallup National Health and Wellbeing Index. Gallup reports that these are the biggest rates on record since they started this particular measure of depression among Americans. Women, young people and minorities are more likely to report depression Certain groups are experiencing depression at higher rates. For example, women are far more likely to be diagnosed with depression than men, with 36.7 percent of women reporting receiving a depression diagnosis at some time in their life versus just 20.4 percent of men. The rate of depression among women has climbed at nearly double the rate seen in men. This may be due, at least in part, to the fact that women tend to be more proactive in seeking treatment for mental health issues than men. Women have historically reported significantly greater rates of depression than men, but the gap has grown bigger since the pandemic.

Will This Become The Mark Of The Beast IDs?

Forerunner To The Mark?: EU Set To Roll Out ‘Digital Identity Wallet’ In 2024

By Harbingersdaily.com

The European Union says its “digital identity wallet” will go into use next year. It’s no accident that this forerunner to the mark of the beast will begin in Europe, the Antichrist’s home turf. In an article sponsored by the global digital security firm Entrust, Wired Magazine called the digital identity wallet, “The most ambitious rollout yet of a comprehensive digital ID system, combining security, compliance, and privacy safeguards for the EU’s 447 million citizens.”

Romana Jerković represents Croatia in the EU Parliament. A member of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats, she said, “With the European Digital Identity Framework, we want the EU to become the first global region with a governance framework for trusted digital identities. The Digital Wallet will become a reliable, all-in-one identity gateway that puts citizens in full control of their own data and gives them the freedom to decide exactly what information to share, with whom, and when.”

Putting the citizen in charge of his or her own data sounds great. But this initiative is not about privacy. It’s about government control

Does Judaism Believe In A Messiah? Not So Much In 2023!

One of the most important themes running throughout the Hebrew Bible is that the God of Israel promises to send the Messiah to earth one day to redeem the Jewish people and rule Israel and the entire world. Obviously, the world’s 2.6 billion Christians believe that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah and that He is coming back to earth in the “last days” of history.  Also obvious is that the vast majority of Jews worldwide – and here in Israel – do not believe that Jesus is the Messiah. Yet here is a fact that is not obvious at all. Nearly half of all Israeli Jews have given up believing that the Messiah is real and coming any time in the future. When asked by researchers, “Do you believe the Messiah is coming?,” a shocking new survey finds that a mere 54.9% of Israeli Jews say “yes.” Fully 45.1% say “no.” No one said, “I don’t know.”

The survey of 1,200 Israeli Jews was designed by two Jewish professors in the United States. For the record, neither believe that Jesus is the Messiah. The survey was conducted last month in Hebrew by one of the top research and polling firms in Israel. It was partially funded by ALL ISRAEL NEWS and the results are being published here for the first time. More results will be published over the next few days and will also be released at the National Religious Broadcasters convention in Orlando, Florida, this week. WHY HAVE SO MANY ISRAELIS ABANDONED BELIEF IN THE MESSIAH? Why have upwards of three million Israeli Jews given up believing that the Messiah is ever coming to earth? It’s an important question and one that will require serious analysis. Unfortunately, the survey didn’t ask. I look forward to interviewing a range of Israeli scholars, religious leaders, and others in search of the answer and reporting my findings here on ALL ISRAEL NEWS and on my weekly, prime time TV show, THE ROSENBERG REPORT, that airs on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). That said, I suspect that the simplest answer is likely the most accurate. Large numbers of Israelis have stopped reading the Jewish scriptures. They might have grown up hearing the Bible read in the synagogue. But they are not reading the Torah or the prophets for themselves. So, they’re not focusing on the specific prophecies that describe who the coming Messiah will be, much less taking those prophecies to heart. What’s more, given that religious Jews believe that God still hasn’t sent the Messiah for more than 3,000 years since the first prophecies were given in the Bible, is it likely that traditional, secular, and non-religious Jews would hold to a belief that the Messiah will still come one day?

Comment:  Not only do many Jews not believe in a literal Messiah or a literal return of the Messiah but they outright reject the notion that Jesus is the Messiah. This has not caught God off-guard or by surprise. In Luke 18:8 Jesus said this about His return, "Nevertheless, when the Son of Man cometh, will He find faith on the earth?". Jesus indicated that instead of a revival in the church and among the Jews there will be steep declines in faith.

Does Societal Anxiety Cause Anger?

You Are Not Alone, Anger Is Building Across The World!

By Bruce Wilds, Advancing Time Blog

 You are not alone if you are tired of watching your government grow increasingly oppressive and corrupt. Many people across the world share your pain. People continue to voice their anger and discontent, however, this is something the media often chooses not to report for it is owned by those same forces which are attempting to enslave us. Those on the left referred to the right as fascist or Nazi while those on the right refer to the left as communist. 

This tends to overlook the fact that both groups are rooted in wanting to expand control. The truth is that the angst and growing anger many people feel is kept under control by a mass media with a very strong agenda. Mass media has perfected the art of dividing us and at the same time keeping us in the dark. The greatest risk we face may be that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is coming at us fast and furious. Once it is here getting information will become almost impossible.

EXCLUSIVE: Dutch farmer ‘families are crying at the kitchen table every day’ and some have committed suicide, warns Dutch MEP Robert Roos about government farm expropriation plans

By John Cody, Remix News

Currently, the Dutch government is looking to offer buyouts for 3,000 farms in the Netherlands, and if they do not accept, their land will be confiscated  The government is offering them 120 percent of the value of their land. A) Do you think that’s a fair offer, and B) Do you think they’re going to fight it?

It’s not fair at all because they have smashed these farmers for years now, and the people are so desperate that many families are crying at the kitchen table every day, and even a couple of farmers committed suicide already. Really, it’s that bad. Our government and also the banks supported a plan to create bigger farms, so the farmers bought the land of their neighbors, and they created huge farms because that was the policy promoted by the government and also by the banks. They wanted the farms to scale up their businesses. And now, suddenly the policy is to make smaller farms. This is also the EU policy. Then, you add nitrogen regulations. These farmers now have these huge farms, which means big debts, huge debts, because they had to invest. And now, the government comes up with the idea that they have this nitrogen problem, and farms need to close or be reduced in size.

10,000 Dutch farmers protest government’s crippling nitrogen emissions target in The Hague

Protesters claim the Dutch government is lying about the extent of the emissions problem in order to grab privately owned land

WHO Now Trying To Sexualize Children At Birth While UN Pushes To Legalize Pedophilia

Now that the powers that be have successfully normalized homosexuality and transgenderism, the next plank in their maniacal social deconstruction agenda is to normalize pedophilia. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations (UN) are leading the charge on this front, with the former calling for sex education to start at birth. The globalist body wants babies to be stripped of their innocence and indoctrinated into every form of perversion possible at the youngest possible age. Once these babies are fully sexualized, the UN aims to decriminalize adult sex with minors, which will become the next color on the LGBTQ “rainbow,” turning it into LGBTQP. A 68-page report from the WHO called “Standards for Sexuality Education in Europe” says toddlers need to be taught about “enjoyment and pleasure when touching one’s own body,” also known as “early childhood masturbation.” Children between the ages of four and six, the WHO insists, must be forced to “talk about sexual matters” in order to “consolidate their gender identity.” “From birth, babies learn the value and pleasure of bodily contact, warmth and intimacy,” the report further states. “Soon after that, they learn what is ‘clean’ and what is ‘dirty.'” According to the WHO, its proposal to sexualize children at the youngest possible age stems from “established psychological facts based on decades of research” – in other words, “science.”

Report: Biden Pushing For Israel - Saudi Deal By End Of The Year

The White House wants to make a diplomatic push for a Saudi-Israeli peace deal in the next six to seven months before the presidential election campaign consumes President Joe Biden’s agenda, two US officials with knowledge of the issue told Axios’ Barak Ravid on Wednesday.

Any normalization agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel brokered by the US will likely include an upgrade in US-Saudi relations and a package of tangible deliverables from the US government.

Such a deal could be unpopular among Democrats due to the tensions with the Saudis over the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi, but a deal could be a historic breakthrough in Middle East peace, leading to a domino effect of more Arab and Muslim-majority countries normalizing relations with Israel.

White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, who is known as MBS, last week in Jeddah and, among other issues, discussed the possibility of Saudi-Israeli normalization, the US officials said.

After the meeting, White House Middle East czar Brett McGurk and Biden’s senior adviser Amos Hochstein traveled to Jerusalem and briefed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

According to the two US officials, Sullivan told MBS the U.S. thinks there is an opportunity to get a Saudi-Israeli deal by the end of the year.
