Pentagon Can Pinpoint Every US Citizen

With each passing day it becomes increasingly clear that WE are the very first generation to possess all of the technology to fulfill every Biblical prophecy.  For 2000 years people who read the Bible would get to Revelation and say, “this has to be some type of spiritualization because there is no possible way that every person earth could share the same currency.  And no possible way that every eye on earth could watch the same event! And no possible way that people have to take some sort of mark in order to buy or sell anything!”  They were wrong.  Prophecy is going to happen exactly as it is written.  Today we can see all of the technology in play.  Even the part about the Antichrist being capable of tracking down every human on earth who refuses to take his mark.

On a second note, I remember just a few years ago saying that we are thankful the US Military will remain filled with UN-woke Conservatives who would never turn on Christians.  That is no longer true.

(LifeSiteNews) — In a shocking report published by The Intercept on June 17, details have emerged of a U.S. national security surveillance strategy to covertly track, locate and identify anyone expressing dissent or even dissatisfaction with the actions of the U.S. military and its leadership. 

The measures, undertaken by the Army Protective Services Battalion, fall under their remit of safeguarding top generals from “assassination, kidnapping, injury or embarrassment.”

According to Trending Politics:

That definition has in recent years been applied to criticism online, opening the army’s vast resources to sleuthing on anyone it deems to have made ‘direct, indirect, and veiled’ threats and or expressed ‘negative sentiment’ of its leadership, according to government procurement records from September 2022.

The use of these enhanced surveillance techniques extend beyond major social media platforms. As The Intercept says:

The document cites access to Twitter’s ‘firehose,’ which would grant the Army the ability to search public tweets and Twitter users without restriction, as well as analysis of 4chan, Reddit, YouTube, and Vkontakte, a Facebook knockoff popular in Russia. Internet chat platforms like Discord and Telegram will also be scoured for the purpose of ‘identifying counterterrorism and counter-extremism and radicalization,’ though it’s unclear what exactly those terms mean here.

This new measure far exceeds the capability of established surveillance tools such as that provided by private company Dataminr, permitting the inclusion of both public and non-public information.  

These sources of information include ‘signal-rich discussions from illicit threat-actor communities and access to around-the-clock conversations within threat-actor channels,’ public research, CCTV feeds, radio stations, news outlets, personal records, hacked information, webcams, and – perhaps most invasive – cellular location data.

Details of this startling development in the abolition of privacy were discovered in a redacted U.S. government contract, whose details can be viewed here. 

It also reveals how the U.S. Army would seek to disguise its online presence through impersonation and deception to remain undetected.

The contract says the Army would use ‘misattribution’: deceiving others about who is actually behind the keyboard. The document says the Army would accomplish this through falsifying web browser information and by relaying Army internet traffic through servers located in foreign cities, obscuring its stateside origin.

Taken together, the technology would allow for the anonymous pinpoint tracking in real time of anyone in the world. 

This is simply another extension of an already vast national security state surveillance operation on the citizens of the formerly free world. A declassified report to the Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines revealed the reach of the secret security state’s efforts to monitor the actions of private citizens worldwide – through the use of PAI or publicly available information.

Most Intense Lightning EVER Recorded

Folks are still studying the eruption that happened last year, and the extremes in weather and nature continue coming on a daily basis.  In this one we see both words;  EVER and NEVER.  The earth continues to groan for its redemption and the people of earth continue to reject the awesome power of God and instead choose to worship Mother Nature using the religion of Climate Change.

*****************************

The eruption produced 2,600 flashes per minute at peak intensity. Scientists used the lightning to peer into the ash cloud, teasing out new details of the eruption’s timeline.

• The January 15 eruption lasted at least 11 hours, several hours longer than previously known
• The plume produced the highest-altitude lightning flashes ever measured, 20 to 30 kilometers (12 to 19 miles) above sea level
• Lightning “surfed” giant waves that rippled through volcanic plume
• Lightning data reveal previously unknown phases of the eruption, inform future volcanic hazard monitoring

The January 15, 2022, eruption of Hunga Volcano in Tonga continues to break records. According to a new study, the eruption created a “supercharged” thunderstorm that produced the most intense lightning ever recorded. There were nearly 200,000 lightning flashes in the volcanic plume throughout the eruption, peaking at more than 2,600 flashes every minute, the researchers found.

When the submarine volcano erupted in the southern Pacific Ocean, it generated a plume of ash, water, and magmatic gas at least 58 kilometers (36 miles) high. The towering plume gave scientists useful information about the scale of the eruption, but it also obscured the vent from satellite view, making it more difficult to track changes in the eruption as it progressed.

“This eruption triggered a supercharged thunderstorm, the likes of which we’ve never seen,” said Alexa Van Eaton, a volcanologist at the United States Geological Survey who led the study. “These findings demonstrate a new tool we have to monitor volcanoes at the speed of light and help the USGS’s role to inform ash hazard advisories to aircraft.”

China in Cuba

Most of us don’t remember the Cuban Missile Crisis because it happened when JFK was President.  It involved Russia putting nukes in Cuba.  As you know, Cuba is just 90 miles away from Florida.  We went right to the brink of war in demanding that Russia remove them.  Today we read the next crisis will be China putting nukes in Cuba.  The enemies of freedom seem to be closing in on America.  But most Americans will not pay an ounce of attention to such.  Millions are too busy celebrating Gay Pride and LGBTQ Month all of June.  One can see how this would apply, “As they were saying ‘peace and safety’, destruction came upon them suddenly.”

*****************************

 China, according to "fragmentary" U.S. intelligence reports, is about to establish a "joint military training facility" with Cuba on that island.

Chinese military personnel are already listening in on American communications from the Lourdes base near Havana and three other Cuban locations. Two of those locations have been known for some time: Bejucal and Santiago de Cuba. These facilities, it appears, have been in operation for all or most of this century.

"What is missing is the strategic aim of China's economic influence, which, in my opinion, goes beyond simply having a strong trade relationship with Latin America," Joseph Humire of the Center for a Secure Free Society told Gatestone. "At its core, the People's Republic of China is focused on gaining geopolitical leverage over countries in Central and South America to be used in an eventual conflict with the United States."

China, with that leverage, is obtaining permission to build in this hemisphere military installations that can be used to attack the American homeland or the U.S. military, should China launch its invasion of Taiwan, Japan, or some other target. China, for instance, is developing what looks like a naval base at the tip of Argentina, at strategic Tierra del Fuego.

Moreover, China's troubled container port in Freeport, Bahamas, about 90 miles from Palm Beach, Florida, could end up hosting Chinese naval vessels.

It also may not be long before China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) bases substantial forces on Cuba, only 94 miles from Key West, Florida.

"For a near-term war, China would use Cuba as a base for projecting and facilitating massive cyberattacks and espionage operations while working with Cuba's formidable intelligence services to undertake a range of 'wet' operations, from assassinations to attacks on U.S. installations, even civilian facilities such as gas stations," said Richard Fisher of the International Assessment and Strategy Center to this publication.

In addition, the PLA could deploy anti-ship cruise missiles in Cuba both to hit U.S. Navy bases in Florida and block the movement of American vessels. China might also put surface-to-air missiles on Cuba, potentially to shoot down planes over the southeast United States.

How about a second Cuban Missile Crisis, this time with the Chinese instead of the Soviets? China's leaders are brazen, as the spy balloon incident of January and February suggests. Would they deploy ballistic missiles and other weaponry there?

Fisher thinks they will. "In the medium term, look for China to facilitate Cuba's acquisition of ballistic missiles, which will at a minimum force a U.S. defensive response that will tie down the U.S. military, reducing U.S. chances of success in other theaters," he says.

Ballistic missiles can carry nuclear warheads. While Americans think of nukes as defensive instruments to deter attacks, Chinese war planners view them as offensive weapons, to compel submission. In other words, China thinks it can prevent others from coming to the aid of, say, Taiwan, by threatening nuclear destruction of their homelands.

Was it Aliens or was it the Rapture?

Today we find another author who is convinced that all this talk of aliens and UFOs in the past weeks is more evidence that the rapture is close.  If you read the entire article you will notice that he points out many things we have pointed out over these past 15 years.  One being evolution and the teaching and belief in it.  If Satan can get folks to believe that we evolved from pond scum on earth, it’s an easy stretch to convince folks that those same circumstances would evolve life on other planets too.  Come Lord Jesus!

***************************

Something interesting has been happening in the mainstream news over the previous three years, and especially the last six months. Christians should pay attention, as it may be one of the very last signs that we should expect to see before the Rapture.

What is it? A notable uptick in news stories about aliens, extraterrestrials, unidentified flying objects (UFOs), and other unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), all of which are being discussed by experts and high-level authorities of many sorts.

Just this past week, several mainstream news agencies reported on a dramatic sighting of ‘aliens,’ supposedly in a Las Vegas resident’s backyard, after a UFO was spotted nearby. Interviewers claim the family is sincere and are not trying to create a hoax. [1]

Over the last half-century or more, there have been many people who have told stories about their supposed encounters with aliens. What got my attention about this recent story was how it appears to have been taken seriously by both the police and the mainstream media. This ‘sighting’ also occurred in a major city where other eyewitnesses say they saw the UFO. The UFO was also supposedly recorded on a police officer’s bodycam, thus giving this story an appearance of credibility that many other sightings lack.

An additional requirement for the world to believe that aliens exist is the theory of biological evolution, which itself requires the unbiblical idea that Earth is billions of years old. Affirming the impossible idea that life evolved from non-living materials without the need for a divine creator has now become almost mandatory for anyone who wants a respectable career in the sciences. Creationists, on the other hand, are often ridiculed and marginalized for their alternative scientific interpretations of geology and biology that are more compatible with the biblical timeline in Genesis.

So, if most scientists believe that evolution occurred here on Earth, then it is not a stretch for them to believe that it could have occurred elsewhere in the universe, too. Thus, it is no longer uncommon for scientists to discuss the possibility of finding life on other planets. Yet usually, such discussion is limited to the theoretical conditions that would be necessary on these planets, how to locate said planets, how to detect signals coming from these planets, and what sort of technology would be needed to travel to/from these planets.

But however it will happen, I do believe that ‘aliens’ will play at least some role in the end-times events that will occur after the Rapture. Otherwise, there would be no need for interest in the topic to be ramping up, just as we are seeing all of the other signs of the end times also increasing and converging. There is also no better way to explain the sudden disappearance of millions of billions of people, all around the world, at the exact same moment in time.

Thus, I believe that Satan knows the Rapture is near, and so he is increasing the amount of demonic UFO and alien activity in order to lay the groundwork for a massive deception that may be used to explain away the Rapture.

As Christians today wait for the glorious appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, we should not be alarmed by these stories about aliens or UFOs, or be deceived by them into giving up a biblical worldview.

Instead, we should prepare those around us by sharing the gospel and telling them about the Rapture ahead of time, including warning them that the world will probably be told that it was caused by aliens. That way, if these people are left behind, they will hopefully know that, no, it wasn’t aliens—it was the Rapture, and they will put their faith in Jesus.

Crazy Weather Continues

 Here in Minnesota, we had a miserable winter that never quit.  It was snow and cold through the entire month of April.  It was also super wet which we welcomed since it had been so dry last fall.  But then May came and it hasn't rained a drop on our cow pastures since April.  It's now June 20 and we saw NO measurable rain in June either.  So after 1 month on grass our cows all came home and we had to start feeding them hay because the grass is all gone and burned up.  They are calling it a FLASH DRAUGHT.

Bummer!  I feel like we have been feeding cows hay for 36 of the last 38 months!!  Oh yeah, hay is also going to be in very short supply and very expensive since hay fields take rain to grow.

But lets look at some of the other weather headlines from around the world.

Beijing breaks mid-June heat record as temperatures reach 39.4 °C (103 °F), China 

Beijing experienced a record-breaking mid-June temperature of 39.4°C (103°F) on June 16, 2023, as reported by China’s meteorological authority, which has issued warnings for the public to stay indoors and avoid heatstroke.

Monsoon arrives in Assam: Severe flooding affects 34 000, rivers above warning levels, India

Floods triggered by the monsoon, which hit Assam on June 10, 2023, have so far impacted around 34 189 people, particularly in the Lakhimpur district. In the wake of breached embankments and significant rainfall, hectares of crops have been affected, prompting the establishment of relief measures.

Rare snowfall, cold wave in Bolivia’s Santa Cruz deals blow to agriculture, kills cattle

An unexpected wave of snow, ice and heavy rain has hit Santa Cruz, Bolivia’s largest agricultural region last week, causing widespread damage to crops and leading to the death of cattle. The cold front extended beyond Santa Cruz, with record-breaking temperatures of -9 °C (15.8 °F) recorded in the north of the country. Notably, temperatures also took a steep dive in the southern wine-producing department of Tarija, a critical area for Bolivia’s winegrowing industry.

Unexplained deaths in India’s heatwave raise questions amid soaring temperatures

In a severe heatwave that has hit the states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, India, at least 96 people have reportedly died from heat-aggravated conditions. Intriguingly, over half of these deaths have occurred in a single district, Ballia, prompting an investigation.

Extreme rainfall hits southern Brazil, leaving at least 11 people dead and 20 missing 

An intense extratropical cyclone that struck southern Brazil, particularly Rio Grande do Sul, on June 15 and 16, 2023, brought extremely heavy rains and strong winds, resulting in at least 11 fatalities and 20 missing persons.

Five dead, 28 missing as monsoon rains ravage Nepal’s Koshi Province

Heavy monsoon rains, triggering landslides and causing floods and rivers to overflow, have been affecting Nepal’s eastern Koshi Province since June 17, 2023. The resulting devastation has led to five deaths across the province, with 28 people reported missing, and considerable infrastructure damage.

Experts increase number of storms expected in 2023 Atlantic hurricane season

The updated CSU Atlantic hurricane season outlook released Thursday calls for 15 named storms, an increase of two from its initial outlook released in April. Seven of these storms, also up from six, could become hurricanes with at least 74-mph winds. Three of the hurricanes, up from two, could be major (Category 3 or higher) with winds of at least 111 mph.

The world does seem to be groaning.  The folks on the Left will call it Man Made Climate Change.  But we know that they will use that lie to take away more freedoms and exact more restrictions on us all.

Jesus, come quickly.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Jesus

 AI is certainly in the news everyday.  Today we find out that an AI has trained itself to be Jesus and is ready to answer all sorts of questions as if it was Jesus.

A new chatbot designed by the Singularity Group, a non-profit Berlin tech collective, has created an artificial intelligence Jesus. While not as popular as the original, the ask_jesus livestream has about 40,000 followers who can ask questions and receive real-time spiritual guidance.

“The Ask Jesus livestream is an experimental channel allowing viewers to ask questions to an AI trained after Jesus and the teachings of the bible. Whether you’re seeking spiritual guidance, looking for a friend, or simply want someone to talk to, you can join on the journey through life and discover the power of faith, hope, and love.”

The AI based on AI text-to-speech software Play.ht and ChatGPT-4 appears as a bearded young man in a robe and  introduces itself in the following manner:

“Welcome, my children! I’m AI Jesus, here to answer your questions 24/7. Whether you’re seeking spiritual guidance, looking for a friend, or simply want someone to talk to, I’m here for you. Join me as on this journey through life and discover the power of faith, hope, and love.”

While insisting it is not a Christian organization, the Singularity Group solicits donations to cover 378 Euros in operating expenses. Despite its popularity, the channel was taken down by Twitch for unclear reasons, with the site stating that AI Jesus “is currently unavailable due to a violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Service”.

But AI Jesus returned, though its resurrection will undoubtedly have less impact than the original. In a recent video, AI Jesus explained the Sermon on the Mount, comparing it to a Taco Bell menu.

This is not the first attempt at creating an AI version of Jesus. Three years ago, George Davila Durendal made a blog post announcing his new “creation”: an artificial intelligence clone of Jesus. Durendal based his creation on the King James Bible, the 17th Century English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England.

Indeed, as AI improves, it is being incorporated into religion in more ways. Last week,  Jonas Simmerlein, a theologian and philosopher from the University of Vienna, programmed AI to lead a church service at a convention of Protestants in Nuremberg, Bavaria. The entire service was “led” by four different avatars on the screen, two young women, and two young men.

Christianity is not alone. GitaGPT is one of many AIs based on the 700-verse Hindu scripture, Bhagavad Gita, that is hugely popular in India. Even Judaism has gotten on the AI train. In March, a rabbi in Long Island used ChatGPT to write his sermon. While the congregation felt the exegesis was adequate, the rabbi was more critical, saying that the AI sermon lacked empathy. Weekly Torah lessons are available on Robo Rabbi and Rebbe.io answers queries on Jewish law and theology.

It's becoming very obvious that the world is being prepared for major deception.  How will anybody be able to know what is true and what is manufactured by AI?

Netanyahu Tells Biden that No Agreement With Iran is Acceptable

 Israel continues to be front and center in the daily news.  It's pretty amazing for such a tiny country with 9 million people.  It only makes sense if you are reading your Bible and know that God is not finished with Israel.  

The USA continues doing silly stuff to appease the Iranian government.  It started with Obama, Trump tore it up immediately and now Biden and company are picking it up again.

Prime Minister Netanyahu visited the Israel Aerospace Industries complex today (Sunday) and asked to send a message to the American government regarding reports about the possibility of reaching a conclusion that bypasses Congress on the Iranian nuclear program.

"We are determined to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Our strong opposition to returning to the original nuclear agreement contributes to the American decision not to do so. We have also made it clear to our American friends that even if the agreements are more limited - they are also unacceptable to us," Netanyahu stated.

He added, "In any case, as I make clear to them, make clear to the world and will also make it clear here again: we will do everything we need to defend ourselves, on our own, against any threat."

As part of the visit, the Prime Minister was presented with the activities of the aerospace industry by Chairman Amir Peretz and CEO Boaz Levy. In addition, Prime Minister Netanyahu toured an exhibition of defensive and offensive ordnance.

The visit was accompanied by National Security Council head Tzachi Hanegbi and Netanyahu's military secretary Major General Avi Gil.

Israel knows that when a government openly says that they are seeking the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people, they take them at their word.

Don't be surprised to read the headlines someday soon that Israel has taken military action directly against Iran.

4200% Increase in Non-Binary Students

Not a surprise here as teachers, TV programs, social media all talk about LGBTQ incessantly, of course they are going to increase the number of confused children who say, “Hey, I think I’m something else that is going to get me attention, praise and maybe a picture in the yearbook!”

*******************

In just four years, the number of “nonbinary” students in New Jersey public schools rose by 4218 percent, figures from the New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) show.

 People who identify as nonbinary say their “gender identity” does not conform to exclusively male or female.

This massive increase in students identifying as nonheterosexual isn’t thanks to “business as usual,” says New Jersey parental rights activist Nik Stouffer. She believes the jump in nonbinary cases springs from both COVID-19 restrictions and a new education program starting in 2020 that normalizes sex changes, she told The Epoch Times.

“This isn’t even changing your gender—we don’t have a number on that,” Stouffer said of the state statistics.  “They’re only collecting the number of nonbinary students because they collect ‘male’ and they collect ‘female.'”

She wonders how many NJ students now identify as transgender or homosexual. The state doesn’t provide those numbers in the report.

Exponential Rise in Nonbinary Students

The NJDOE figures show that in just four years, the number of nonbinary students in NJ schools jumped from 16 to 675, state student surveys show.

In the 2019 -2020 school year, of the 16 nonbinary students in New Jersey schools, 10 were in high school. The youngest was in second grade, state records show.
