Something quietly revolutionary is happening -- and it’s not about better medicine. Around the world, governments and global institutions are building a new kind of health infrastructure, one that blurs the line between wellness monitoring and total surveillance.

It began innocently enough: fitness trackers, smartwatches, health apps. Tools designed to help us understand our bodies, count our steps, check our pulse. But these gadgets were never just personal accessories -- they were the front door. Today, they’re becoming part of a vast digital network capable of tracking not just illness, but human behavior itself.

Now, with artificial intelligence scanning our posts, our moods, our online discussions, and even our movements in real time, health has become the perfect Trojan horse. Under the banner of “safety,” “prevention,” and “pandemic preparedness,” we are constructing a system that knows not only who is sick, but who might be -- and eventually, who might think the wrong things.

The Merger No One Voted For

At the heart of this transformation lies a growing alliance between health monitoring, digital tracking, and centralized information control. Once these existed in separate worlds -- doctors monitored health, governments managed policy, tech companies managed data. But now, they are merging into one continuous loop of surveillance, each feeding the other.

Health apps collect biometric data. Algorithms scan social media to detect “trends” in behavior or sentiment. AI systems interpret the language people use online, supposedly to prevent misinformation, but effectively mapping how populations think and speak.

It’s a merger of biology and data -- the monitoring of your body combined with the analysis of your mind. And all of it flows upward, toward centralized systems designed to “protect” us through constant observation.

The great irony is that we’re building this willingly. Many of the tools we wear on our wrists, or install on our phones, are marketed as liberating. We call them “personal assistants.” But their real loyalty isn’t to us -- it’s to the networks that own the data.

From Health to Obedience

Health surveillance has always been easier to justify than political surveillance. Who would argue against stopping a virus? Who wouldn’t want early detection of disease? Yet history shows that the line between protection and control is vanishingly thin.

When health data becomes social data -- and social data becomes political -- control becomes inevitable. Once a system is built to monitor for “potential health risks,” what stops it from being used to detect “potential risks to stability”?

Imagine a world where your health metrics are tied to your access to public life. Your temperature spikes, your phone pings you to isolate. Your social media post is flagged as “misleading,” your online reach is limited. You attend a protest, your movement is recorded and logged as a “public health risk.”

The fusion of health and technology gives power a new weapon -- one that operates under the guise of compassion. A society of endless monitoring can easily become a society of obedience. Not because someone knocks on your door, but because your digital reflection tells the system everything it wants to know.

The End of Private Thought

The next stage of this merger won’t just track our physical health -- it will map our emotional and ideological health too. AI already reads tone, word choice, and sentiment. It learns what angers us, frightens us, and motivates us. Combine that with real-time biometric data from wearables -- heart rate, stress levels, sleep patterns -- and a frightening possibility emerges: a profile of who we are not just by what we say, but by how we feel.

This is how modern control operates -- not through open tyranny, but through predictive design. Systems that know your emotional response can shape what information you see. They can decide which news stories appear first, which posts are labeled, which opinions are “healthy.” The result is not censorship by force, but censorship by algorithm. A managed population that believes it is free because the control is invisible.

Dependency Disguised as Progress

Another danger is dependency. As nations adopt shared digital health frameworks -- managed by international organizations -- they begin to rely on centralized systems for decision-making. That means less national autonomy and, eventually, less personal autonomy.

A “global health network” that constantly monitors populations may sound efficient, but it makes every country part of a single nervous system controlled elsewhere. And when a crisis comes -- real or manufactured -- that system can tighten instantly. Borders, travel, commerce, speech -- all can be restricted in the name of safety.

People will obey, not because they are forced, but because the infrastructure is already built to reward compliance. Digital passes, health credentials, verification systems -- all of it can be expanded beyond pandemics into everyday governance. Those who resist could find themselves quietly excluded: unable to travel, unable to transact, unable to participate fully in modern life.

Where This Leads

The logical end of such a system is a society where every human being is a monitored data point -- their health, speech, behavior, and emotions continuously tracked by unseen eyes. Governments will not need to ban dissent; they will simply predict and prevent it. The individual will not need to be punished; they will be managed.

This is not science fiction -- it’s the architecture being built right now. Each new upgrade, each new layer of “AI-driven safety,” brings us closer to a world where freedom becomes conditional on compliance, and privacy becomes an outdated concept.

The future may not arrive with the roar of tyranny, but with the hum of sensors and the calm voice of an app reminding you that it’s all “for your protection.”

The question, then, is not whether this merger will happen -- it already has. The real question is how far it will go before people realize that a monitored world, no matter how healthy, is no longer a free one.

I’m sure all of you have been watching the news surrounding the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, which was led by the Trump administration. As a result, all of the living hostages have been released along with 15 of the 28 murdered hostages.

All of the deceased were supposed to have been released over a week ago, within 72 hours from the start of the agreement. Unsurprisingly, Hamas is claiming that they can’t get to the remaining 13 bodies, saying that they are buried in rubble and require heavy equipment to access.

Israel isn’t buying it—and I don’t blame them.

That was merely the first violation of the new peace agreement. The terror group has also been carrying out attacks against IDF troops.

Fox News, reporting on the violations, detailed:

The Israeli military conducted strikes against Hamas in Gaza after accusing the terrorist organization of repeatedly violating its ceasefire agreement on Sunday.

An Israeli military official confirmed the strikes to Fox News on Sunday, pointing to attacks by Hamas since Friday. The IDF later confirmed that it was taking actions in Gaza.

“Earlier today, terrorists fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire toward IDF troops operating to dismantle terrorist infrastructure in the Rafah area, in southern Gaza, in accordance with the ceasefire agreement,” the IDF said in a statement.

“In response, the IDF has begun striking in the area to eliminate the threat and dismantle tunnel shafts and military structures used for terrorist activity,” it continued.

Israel has responded by striking areas in the north and south of the Gaza Strip.

Hamas claims it wasn’t them who attacked IDF troops, and they know nothing about it. Should we believe the terror organization? I highly doubt it.

As the US warned the Palestinians, Hamas was planning to begin fighting Palestinian rival groups and had already begun by executing over 30 Gazans in the streets—another violation of the ceasefire.

Footage from social media, which has been verified to Reuters by a Hamas source, showed seven men being forced to their knees and shot from behind by Hamas gunmen during public executions in Gaza on October 14th, 2025.

Fox News further reported:

The reported attacks on Israeli troops come after Hamas spent days fighting Palestinian rival groups after the ceasefire went into effect.

According to Reuters, Hamas executed at least 33 people in recent days in what officials described as a campaign to “show strength” after the ceasefire. Israeli sources say most of those killed belonged to families accused of collaborating with Israel or supporting rival militias.

I have personally seen disturbing footage of Hamas using pipes and steel bars to brutally beat and break the limbs of Palestinian civilians whom they accuse of “collaborating with Israel.”

These monsters are nothing less than a demonic death cult—and the only way they are going to disarm is if Israel is allowed to finish them off. Preventing Israel from doing so simply allows Hamas to live another day.

This battle isn’t over yet. Now is not the time to stop praying. Though President Trump’s efforts for peace have resulted in the release of the living hostages (praise God for that), it’s far from any lasting peace.

What we are witnessing today reminds me of what these peace efforts are all driving towards: the ultimate “peace deal” of Daniel 9:27.

A future world leader that the Bible calls “the beast” or the “antichrist” will confirm a deal with the house of Israel for seven years. Isaiah 28 calls it a deal made “with death and hell.” This will be the ultimate deal with a demonic death cult, which includes Satan himself, as he is the one driving this yet future agreement. We read in Revelation chapter 13 that he possesses this coming one world leader.

Even with what is happening around us, we should all recognize that Satan is the one driving all of the demonic hatred against Israel and the Jewish people.

The efforts for peace today may have good intentions. I’m not arguing that striving for peace is bad. Israel longs for peace! But to think that you can make peace with people who wish you dead and will not recognize your right to exist… Well, it’s just a fantasy, and it’s paving the way to that ultimate peace deal, which is yet to come.

What this world needs is to meet the Prince of Peace—Israel’s Messiah, Yeshua, Jesus. In the end, only He can change hearts. He is going to return one day, as He has promised, and He will fix the mess that this world has made.

John writes in Revelation 22:20, “He who testifies to these things says, ‘Surely I am coming quickly.’ Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!”

Under the personal and ideologically-driven Islamist direction of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Turkey aspires to actively construct a strategic encirclement of Israel, an Israeli terrorism expert has warned, days after reports emerged stating that the Trump administration is weighing allowing Ankara to purchase F-35 fighter jets.

Turkey’s willingness to back U.S. President Donald Trump’s 20-point truce plan has reportedly increased its chances of acquiring the stealth aircraft, though this has yet to be confirmed.

Dr. Ely Karmon, a senior research scholar at the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism at Reichman University in Herzliya and a member of the Israeli non-partisan group Coalition for Regional Security, told JNS in recent days, “If Erdoğan’s plan to take over Syria in the military domain succeeds and he receives approval for a military force, legitimacy and Qatari money for construction in Gaza, Turkey will largely replace the Iranian dream of enclosing Israel in a more dangerous military and political ring.”

Karmon warned that “when it comes to Israel, Erdoğan is the one who sets Turkey’s policy and he is personally responsible for the deterioration of bilateral relations between the countries for years. Erdoğan has strong anti-Israel feelings, based on deep-rooted religious beliefs. Erdoğan simply despises Israel.”

Karmon explained that this animosity is channeled through a calculated political strategy. “President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan attaches great importance to the Palestinian issue, presenting himself as the protector of the Palestinians and of the holy Islamic sites in Jerusalem,” he said. “By exploiting the Palestinian issue, Erdoğan is trying to present Turkey to the Arab public as a leading power in the Middle East and to achieve Islamic legitimacy in the region.”

This strategy has included long-standing and overt support for the Hamas terrorist organization. In March 2006, Erdoğan invited a high-ranking Hamas delegation to visit Turkey, immediately after its success in the Palestinian Legislative Council elections, Karmon recalled, contrary to the advice of his advisers and the positions of the Turkish media.

“Since then, political and operational relations with Hamas have continued to grow,” Karmon said.

He noted that this backing became tangible when, in May 2010, the Mavi Marmara, a Turkish ship carrying a large Turkish militant group from the Foundation for Human Rights and Humanitarian Relief (IHH), led an international flotilla that tried to break the Israeli security blockade of the Gaza Strip.

Ankara’s influence campaign has also extended into Israel itself. “Relations with the northern wing of the Islamic Movement in Israel [itself banned in 2015] also strengthened, as both share a common ideology and their goal is to promote Jerusalem as an issue in the radical Islamic discourse,” Karmon stated.

“About 63 million dollars donated by the Turkish government were transferred to organizations in East Jerusalem dedicated to the protection and strengthening of the Muslim heritage and character of Jerusalem. Some of the money financed the Murabitun movement (which includes male radical Islamist activists) and the Murabitat (which includes female activists), who harassed and physically attacked Jews visiting the Temple Mount.”

Following the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre by Hamas, Erdoğan’s rhetoric reached a new level of vitriol.

“On Oct. 11, 2023, Erdoğan said that Israel’s siege and bombing of Gaza in response to the Hamas attack was a disproportionate response, a ‘massacre’ in his words, but he did not condemn the Hamas massacre of civilians,” Karmon said.

This escalated significantly when Erdoğan stated in March 2024 that Ankara “firmly supports” Hamas.

“’No one can make us declare Hamas a terrorist organization,’ the Turkish president said in a speech in Istanbul, while comparing Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government to ‘Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin, like the Nazis of today,’” Karmon said.

This rhetoric was followed by action, with Erdoğan severing all economic ties with Israel in April 2024 and joining South Africa’s ICJ petition accusing Israel of genocide.

Karmon warned that Turkey is now leveraging the collapse of the Assad regime to dramatically increase its influence in Syria, with direct implications for Israel.

“With the fall of the Assad regime and the decline in the status of its two major allies, Russia and Iran, in Syria, Turkey seized the opportunity to significantly increase its influence in the country in the field of defense (among others), in an apparent attempt to turn Syria into a Turkish protectorate,” he said.

He pointed to a January 2025 statement by Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, who declared that in this “new era ... Turkey is the shepherd and protector” of all groups in Syria.

This ambition is backed by force, with some 90,000 fighters of the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army (SNA) operating in the country, an organization that surrounds Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, and which has been accused of kidnappings, extortion and other crimes.

According to an Oct. 10 report by the Washington, D.C.-based Foundation for Defense of Democracies, Erdoğan left a previous trip to Washington empty-handed on his request for F-35 fighter jets.

However, a report in The National Interest from Oct. 10 noted that Turkey is moving to purchase Eurofighter Typhoons from Qatar, signaling its intent to upgrade its air force regardless.

As part of the recent U.S.-brokered hostage deal, the American compensation appears particularly far-reaching. According to an October 8 report in the Turkish Daily Sabah newspaper, Erdoğan was promised the supply of F-35 aircraft, and he is slated to a legitimate player in the Gaza agreement’s implementation process.

Oded Ailam, a former head of the Counterterrorism Division in the Mossad and currently a researcher at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs (JCSFA), has warned of Turkey’s destructive role.

In a recent analysis for Mako, Eilam argued that it “is difficult to ignore the deep aspirations of the current Turkish president,” which he described as the wish to resurrect the Ottoman empire and turn into a modern sultan.

He added that this is occurring alongside a strengthening of the Turkish-Egyptian military cooperation, which included meetings this year between the chiefs of staff of both countries and discussions on joint development of military industries, and maneuvers.

“In the past decade, Turkey has not only strengthened its fleet with purchases of advanced submarine types, developed a light aircraft carrier, and purchased naval attack weapons, it has also strengthened its cooperation with other countries in the Middle East,” Eilam said.

Israel is not the only country facing this neo-Ottoman vision, he said, naming Greece and Cyprus as others that must deal with increasing Turkish dominance.

“Israel can celebrate the Gaza agreement, but not fall asleep instead of standing on guard,” Eilam cautioned. “If the Mediterranean Sea is a game board, Erdogan has already placed more than a queen on it. He placed a whole fleet.”

We are living in historic days! The insanity of this most recent period can look toward Iran’s nuclear arms push for a general start point, along with their strategy to arm militias to terrorize the Middle East and make strikes against Israel. The Israel Defense Forces battled Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and a host of other ayatollah-backed terrorists whose skill and organizational levels ranged from well-structured and pretty smart to ragtag and dumb as a bunch of rocks. Then came October 7, 2023. Hamas attacked in force. An over-confident Israel was caught flat-footed. The brutality and slaughter carried out by the terrorists was unprecedented, and the 251 innocent civilians taken back to Gaza as hostages ensured that Israeli anger would remain piqued and its sorrow potent.


The War

For 738 days, these men and women, both young and old, were held as bargaining chips and deployed as human shields. Israel didn’t remain quiet. They unleashed the full strength of their military to find these victims, who were their brothers and sisters, and to exact a cost from the unholy terrorists who perpetrated the heinous slaughter. The IDF attacked northern Gaza, discovering a vast array of underground tunnels that stretched for miles and miles. At first, they held the support of most countries, who understood the need for a nation to rescue its victimized civilians and ensure safety at its borders.


But then time went on and the war spread throughout Gaza. Because Hamas was embedded into the cities and neighborhoods, hiding in hospitals and tunneling from beneath schools, Israel’s actions began to feel uncomfortable for some nations. Then, when popular protests began, many simp countries from the United Nations saw an out. They, too, condemned Israel for their conduct during the war. These nations knew the truth, that no other country has ever taken so many precautions to protect civilian lives as has Israel. But they ignored proven facts in order to forward their anti-Jewish narrative. This anti-Israel wave gained momentum, until it reached tsunami levels these past couple weeks with European nations, one after the other, demanding a two-state solution between Israel and Palestine – a solution really not wanted by Israel, and despised by the Palestinians.


But while all the western European nations, as well as those Down Under, were falling over each other to prove how anti-Israel they could be, there was one nation who didn’t cave to the peer pressure. Despite the public protests and the caterwauling by the left, the administration in Washington was determined to try to find a real solution to the situation. They worked for weeks, eventually coming alongside the Qataris, who in actuality are the very reason why the war went on as long as it did due to their support of Hamas and coddling of the terrorist group’s leadership. Still, America and Qatar worked to forge a deal, and ultimately they did. There were other nations involved in the political wrangling, but essentially it was President Trump and the Emir of Qatar who made a peace deal happen.


The Deal

President Donald Trump presented a 20-point plan for ending the war in Gaza. If you would like the points of the plan, I would direct you to the X link that the White House website provides. The two most essential provisions for all Israelis were found in points four and five of the plan, which called for all hostages, living and deceased, to be returned within 72 hours. In exchange, Israel would release 1950 Palestinian convicts, plus the remains of 15 deceased Gazans for every deceased Israeli. Is it imbalanced? Of course. But those of us in Israel are used to that because we love our people to a degree that is far greater than our disdain for our enemies. Hamas, on the other hand, hates Israel much more than they love their own children, which is why they keep sending them to blow themselves up in our country, celebrating their murder/suicide progeny as martyrs.


It is this hostage exchange that has been the focus of this past week. I will get to that a few paragraphs down. When the agreement was finally reached, there was great celebration in Israel. Not because it is a perfect deal. It is far from that. But it meant our hostages were coming home. And because it was President Donald Trump who was the key figure in brokering the deal, he is being lauded in Israel as a hero. This past weekend, when he flew to Israel, he was greeted with signs and banners all over Tel Aviv and Jerusalem thanking him for his efforts. After a meeting with President Isaac Herzog, during which he was given the President’s Medal which is the highest civilian decoration in Israel, and a meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu, who gave to him a golden dove of peace, Trump went to the Knesset. When he was introduced, he received the longest standing ovation ever given in the Israeli parliament.


Netanyahu was the first to speak, and he said, “President Donald Trump is the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House.” Then, looking ahead, he added, “We made the Abraham Accords, and we will do it again.” After the prime minister was done, Trump took the podium and appeared to be as comfortable speaking there as he would have been at a campaign rally. He took time to praise Netanyahu, the IDF soldiers, and the chief of staff. Of the deal, he said, “When the dust settles and the smoke clears, a brighter and better future emerges.” All in all, it was a time that will go down in the annals of the Knesset for its joy and its celebration of American-Israeli friendship.


When the president’s time in Israel was completed, he flew to Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, to join Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Emir of Qatar Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan for an official signing of the Gaza Peace Plan. While there, they were joined by quite a few other world leaders who were either excited about the prospect for peace, or who just couldn’t bear missing a photo opportunity they could use to fool their citizenry into thinking that they actually care.


The Backtrack

In a surprise to absolutely no one, Hamas is already trying to back out of certain elements of the deal. Sources from the New York Post, as well as members of their own organization are saying that there is no way that they will completely give up their arms or let go of control of Gaza. “We will not be prisoners to Israeli terminology or demands. This will be a key focus in the next phase of our struggle,” said Hazem Qassem, Hamas spokesperson, completely forgetting it was the United States who penned the 20-point plan. The fact that his organization had already signed the agreement also appears to have slipped his mind. Other terrorist organizations around Judea and Samaria also say they won’t abide by the ceasefire. “The resistance factions did not agree to disarmament, and we do not accept threats to forcibly disarm,” warned the deputy secretary-general of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, sounding very much like a mouse who happened to stumble across a bullhorn.


If Hamas backs out from this deal, it will not go well for them. President Trump emphasized the necessity of follow-through, saying, “Either Hamas will disarm or we will disarm them. It will happen quickly and maybe violently, but they will be disarmed. Prime Minister Netanyahu added, “The conditions of the 20-point plan are very clear. It’s not only that we get the hostages out, it’s also about disarming and demilitarization…. If the second part is not implemented peacefully, I heard President Trump say that the gates of hell will open.” Obviously, Bibi has learned the fine art of speaking softly and carrying a big White House.


One more item that is no surprise is that the violence continues in Gaza. Now that Hamas can’t fire at the IDF anymore, they are turning their guns on their own people. If you follow my Telegram channel, you will see that Hamas is comprised of vicious people who need an outlet for their evil. Civilians are being gunned down in the streets for deeds contrary to the ruling terrorists, whether their actions are real or simply perceived. The IDF is also not at a place in which they can unload and stow their weapons. Just Tuesday, a group of three or four suspects crossed well-defined no-go lines. The IDF warned them to go back, but they still came forward. An air force attack helicopter ended their progress.

The Heroic Living

I did not want to finish this newsletter without highlighting what is truly most important. We have our living hostages back. Twenty men who somehow survived the beatings, the starvation, and whatever other brutalities the monsters of Hamas subjected them to. While I do not fully agree with everything in the peace agreement, I am more than willing to overlook any disagreement because these men are now home. God is good. His name is to be praised. Those who came home this past weekend are (numbers reflect age when taken):

• Matan Angrest, 20, is an IDF soldier who was taken hostage from his tank unit at Nahal Oz. He has now been reunited with his family
• Alon Ohel, 22, is a talented pianist who arrived at the Nova festival about an hour before Hamas attacked. His family placed a yellow piano in the Hostages Plaza in Tel Aviv for people to play to help boost hope. Alon will now have the opportunity to play that piano himself
• Omri Miran, 46, was taken captive from Kibbutz Nahal Oz and has now been reunited with his wife and young daughters whom the terrorists miraculously decided to leave at home
• Eitan Mor, 23, was a security guard at Nova and was last seen in a large field trying to usher others to safety. He has now been reunited with his family
• Guy Gilboa-Dilal, 22, had gone with his older brother, Gal, and friends to the Nova festival. When the attack happened, he and Gal split up in their attempt to escape. Gal got away, but Guy was taken. They are now reunited, along with the rest of the family
• Gali Berman, 26, was taken from Kibbutz Kfar Aza, a site especially hard hit. He was taken with his twin brother, Ziv, from the “young generation” neighborhood in which nearly a third of the residents were slaughtered and seven were kidnapped. Gali is now home with his family
• Ziv Berman, 26, was abducted with twin brother, Gali. For ten days, their family didn’t know if they were alive or dead. Ziv and brother, Gali, are now back home
• Elkana Bohbot, 34, who was at the Nova Music Festival is now home with his wife and three-year-old son
• Avinatan Or, 30, was taken with his girlfriend, Noa Argamani, from Nova. Argamani was rescued from Gaza in June 2024, and Or has now reunited with her
• Yosef-Haim Ohana, 23, was taken after delaying his escape to try to help fellow festival-goers
• Evyatar David, 23, was taken from Nova and had been videoed just two months ago as Hamas forced him to dig his own grave
• Rom Braslavski, 19, was working as a security guard at Nova and was able to save several people from capture before being wounded in his hands and captured
• Segev Kalfon, 25, was fleeing Nova when he was captured and stolen away
• Nimrod Cohen, 19, was at Nahal Oz when he was taken by terrorists to Gaza
• Maxim Herkin, 35, decided at the last minute to go to the rave at Nova. When he was taken, he left behind his mother, preteen brother, and baby daughter, all of whom he was provider for
• Eitan Horn, 37, was visiting his brother, Iair, at Kibbutz Nir Oz when both were kidnapped to Gaza. Iair was released in February 2025, and Eitan is now reunited with him and the rest of his family
• Matan Zangauker, 24, was taken with his girlfriend, Ilana Gritzewsky, from Kibbutz Nir Oz. Ilana was released in November 2023, and Matan is now reunited with her and with his family
• Bar Kuperstein, 22, was part of the Nova staff and stayed to take care of the injured at the festival. The last he was seen was in a video in which he was tied up on the ground. He is now home with his family
• David Cunio, 34, was taken with his wife, Sharon, and three-year-old twin daughters, along with other family members, from their home in Kibbutz Nir Oz. His family was released in November 2023, and he has finally now joined them
• Ariel Cunio, 34, is the twin brother of David and was also taken from Kibbutz Nir Oz, along with his girlfriend Arbel Yehoud, whose brother, Dolev, was killed by the terrorists. Ariel and David were held separately throughout their confinement, but they have now been reunited, as have Ariel and Arbel, who was released in January 2025.

The Blessed Deceased

On October 13, Israel received the remains of four hostages: Bipin Joshi, 23; Guy Illouz, 26; Yossi Sharabi, 53; and Daniel Peretz, 22. Then, on Tuesday, four more bodies were delivered: Eitan Levy, 53; Tamir Nimrod, 20; and Uriel Baruch, 35. The fourth body was discovered to not be that of either a hostage or a Hamas member. I have information as to who it actually is, but that is something I’m not yet at liberty to talk about. Finally, Inbar Hyman, 27, and Staff Sergeant Muhammad al-Atarash, 39, came home last night. I am only mentioning the names of the deceased now, because the return of our fallen is still in progress. Nineteen bodies still remain. Hamas says they cannot access the remains of the other hostages. I expect there will need to be some very clear verification of that assertion.

The world is still at war in many areas, and there are the usual crazy actions being perpetrated by a deceived population. However, I will hold that for next week. My goal today was to update you on the agreement and then give you some insight as to why we were so determined to return home these remaining hostages. They each have an uphill road ahead of them after more than two years in a brutal captivity. Use the list that I have provided to you to pray for these men and their families. Ask God to give them peace, comfort, and hope. Most of all, ask that their eyes are opened to the real truth that comes from Someone who loves them more than they can imagine.

- harbingersdaily.com/no-matter-what-peopl...r-will-be-palestine/

Had Hitler not committed suicide in his bunker and survived the war, would he have been a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize? Of course not, so, why in the world is Palestine being recognized as a state almost two years after the bloody murders of October 7, 2023, by Hamas, and with still hostages kept in Gaza? Are we rewarding terrorism, rape, murder, and hostage taking? By saying yes to the Palestinian Authority demanding full recognition, we absolutely are, and that is more problematic than people realize.

This year marks the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly, and while there are many parts of the world that could benefit from a genuine global organization that claims to be “the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity” the United Nations are obsessed with demonizing and delegitimizing Israel. So much so, that since 2015, it has passed 301 resolutions against Israel and 192 against the rest of the world, including some countries such as North Korea, Iran, Sudan, Russia, China, Syria, and others. The double standards are so obvious, but nobody seems to care. The bias and one-sidedness are sickening!

Officially, the Palestinian Liberation Organization declared the establishment of the State of Palestine in 1988. This happened under the leadership of Yasser Arafat, who, incidentally, was born in 1929 in Cairo, Egypt, not “Palestine.” Ever since, more countries have officially recognized Palestine as a bona fide state. 151 out of the 193 nations part of the United Nations have now taken sides against Israel by recognizing Palestine. This year, the UK, France, Belgium, Portugal, Australia, Malta, and Canada will join ranks.

It would be difficult to accept such a recognition even if it had conditions to it, knowing full well that these pre-requisites to a two-state solution would be broken within days. How do I know that? Simply look at the Gaza Strip. That area was under Israeli control until 2005. Under Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, Israel dismantled their military operations and evacuated all Israeli citizens from the Strip, leaving behind an infrastructure that could have been picked up and utilized to grow the Arab economy in the Gaza Strip. Buildings were destroyed, greenhouses leveled, along with any remnant of an Israeli economy and infrastructure. Twenty years later, the Gaza Strip includes 300 miles of tunnels dedicated to only one thing: killing Jews!

Let me get this straight. Israel has not been inside Gaza officially since 2005, so there is no occupation of that strip of land by Jewish settlers, period. The strip was given unilaterally to the Arabs to settle and grow their economy and society. Instead, they expanded their terrorism year after year, right in front of the world and with he financial help and political support of many nations, in the name of peace in the Middle East, and then…October 7, 2023, happened. Now, several major nations from within the West are recognizing Palestine unilaterally and without any conditions. What could possibly go wrong?

Since 2015, the United States has voted 93% in favor of Israel at the UN. Let’s pray that trend continues. Yet, with the likely election of Zohran Mamdani as the next mayor of New York and the slow but steady growth of Islam within our walls, America could turn on Israel as well. After all, the Bible does prophesy that in the End Times, the whole world–including America– will turn on Jerusalem, as spoken by Zechariah, “But it will be in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who heave it up will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it.”

As “Palestine” is on the cusp of being unilaterally recognized and terrorism rewarded, Israel increasingly finds herself pushed into a corner. Bibi might not have any other option but to annex Judea and Samaria (wrongly labelled as the West Bank) as a response to the Palestinian recognition.

The land never was and never will be Palestine, no matter what people call it. It is God’s land, and He was the very first Zionist! Coming to the rescue of Israel and speaking up against the lies spewed by the Red/Green axis is not only unpopular, but it is slowly becoming lethal. In light of Charlie Kirk’s assassination for speaking biblical truth and being a friend of Israel, we must not remain silent. As the days of being pro-Israel continue, even if her friends are dwindling down, those of us in that camp need to move it up a notch and get skin in the game. As we continue to be pro-Israel, we now need to become proactive for Israel.

An “unprecedented” gathering of generals and admirals will be happening in Virginia next week, and the purpose of the meeting is a huge mystery. This has sparked a frenzy of speculation on social media, but we still aren’t getting any answers. Hopefully we will get an explanation soon, because things are starting to get really weird. First the “Department of Defense” was renamed the “Department of War”, and then President Trump boldly declared that Ukraine can win the war against Russia and take back all of the territory that the Russians have conquered. Of course that wouldn’t be possible unless NATO forces got directly involved. So are we going to war soon? There are some that believe that this is the real reason why this mysterious gathering of generals and admirals has been scheduled for next week…

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered hundreds of the nation’s top military officers to assemble at a Marine Corps base in northern Virginia next week for an unscheduled meeting, an unusual move that has raised questions inside the Pentagon.

The gathering, set for Tuesday at Quantico, will bring together generals and admirals of one-star rank or higher, along with senior advisers, according to two people familiar with the matter who spoke to the Associated Press.

The directive did not include a reason for the meeting. The people, who described the move as extraordinary, were not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity.

Quantico is quite secure.

I have been there myself.

But I think that it is quite foolish to gather all of our military brass in a single location.

Our enemies know exactly where they are going to be, and they could all be taken out in a single strike.

According to CBS News, all we are being told is that Pete Hegseth will be “addressing his senior military leaders”…

“The Secretary of War will be addressing his senior military leaders early next week,” said chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell.

The Pentagon has provided no other details about the meeting to either the military leaders or the press.

Isn’t this something that could be handled over a video call?

If I was a senior military official, that is what I would be thinking.

Either Pete Hegseth is wasting everyone’s time, or this is something really big.

A war with Russia would certainly qualify as something really big. On Thursday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov publicly stated that he believes that NATO is already at war with Russia…

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Thursday, per a Public Telegram Board, that NATO and the European Union are waging war against Russia “using Ukraine as a proxy” and are “directly participating” in the conflict. Lavrov’s comments follow repeated Kremlin claims that Western military and financial support for Ukraine amounts to direct hostility toward Russia.

The announcement also comes amid repeated drone incursions into NATO allies’ air space. NATO warned Russia on Tuesday that it was prepared to defend “every inch of allied territory” after Estonia said that Russian fighter jets had violated its airspace last week. The incursion followed a similar incident in Poland earlier this month, where around 20 drones from Moscow entered Polish airspace. Just this week, Denmark reported multiple drone incidents at critical infrastructure points, as a Russian landing ship was discovered lurking off the Danish coast.

Unless the Russians actually want to start something, they need to keep their aircraft out of NATO airspace.

A single incident could potentially change everything.

But the Russians just won’t stop. In fact, two Tu-95 long-range strategic bombers and two Su-35 fighter jets just flew through the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone…

U.S. fighter jets were scrambled Wednesday to identify and intercept four Russian warplanes flying near Alaska, the North American Aerospace Defense Command said in a statement.

NORAD said two Russian Tu-95 long-range strategic bombers and two Su-35 fighter jets were flying in the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ), which is international airspace that abuts U.S. and Canadian sovereign airspace.

NORAD responded Wednesday by sending an E-3 early warning and control aircraft, along with four F-16s and four KC-135 tanker planes, “to positively identify and intercept” the Russian aircraft in the Alaskan ADIZ.

What in the world are the Russians thinking?

If they keep pulling such stunts, it is just a matter of time before one of their aircraft gets shot down.

In fact, Ursula Von der Leyen just warned that shooting down Russian aircraft is very much “on the table”…

Von der Leyen assured Amanpour that the option of shooting Russian aircraft out of the sky is “on the table” – following last week’s alleged drone and jet incursion incidents which took place in Poland, Romania, and Estonia. In each instance jets were scrambled from the NATO countries.

“My opinion is we have to defend every square centimeter of the territory,” von der Leyen told the CNN correspondent. “That means if there is an intrusion in the airspace, after warning, after being very clear, of course the option of shooting down a fighter jet that is intruding our airspace is on the table.”

That’s just great.

Does she not understand what would transpire if that actually happened?

According to Russia’s ambassador to France, if a Russian aircraft gets shot down there “would be war”…

NATO potentially shooting down a Russian plane in allied airspace “would be war,” Russian Ambassador to France, Alexey Meshkov, said in an interview with the RTL news channel published on Sept. 25.

The comments come amid surging tensions between Moscow and NATO as the allies accused Russia of multiple airspace violations in recent weeks.

U.S. President Donald Trump has said that NATO countries should shoot down Russian aircraft violating their airspace, a statement welcomed by many eastern members.

When asked what Russia’s reaction would be in such a case, Meshkov replied that downing a Russian plane would amount to war.

Both sides are being so irrational.

We are closer to war with Russia than we have ever been before, and the Ukrainians are absolutely thrilled about that because they have been trying to draw NATO directly into the conflict for a long time.

Earlier today, it was being reported that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has gleefully suggested that Russians will soon need “to know where their bomb shelters are”…

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that the Kremlin will become a target and Russian officials should check for bomb shelters if Moscow does not stop its invasion of his country, Axios reported Thursday.

“They have to know where their bomb shelters are,” Zelensky told Axios in an interview. “They need it. If they will not stop the war, they will need it in any case.”

Of course it is also possible that the mysterious gathering of U.S. military officials at Quantico next week could have to do with the situation in the Middle East.

Instead of backing down, Iran is rapidly rebuilding their nuclear facilities…

Speaking to Sky News in Vienna, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, Mohammad Eslami, also said there will be no direct talks with the US.

He vowed the damaged facilities would be rebuilt despite the threat of further attacks by Israel.

“It is quite normal that during a military attack on facilities, they incur damage and the infrastructure is destroyed,” he said. “What is important is that science, know-how, technology, and industry are long-standing and deeply-rooted in the history of Iran.”

Personally, I will be watching the Middle East very, very closely during the next several weeks.

If something causes war with Iran to suddenly erupt again, that will tell us a lot.

Another theory that is being floated to explain why so many military officials are being summoned to Virginia next week is that the Trump administration is planning a nationwide crackdown on political violence.

As I detailed yesterday, we have entered a new era of violent domestic terrorism. There have been so many examples of this in 2025, and President Trump is warning the left that “ultimately it’s going to go back on them”…

President Donald Trump warned that Americans on the political right eventually “won’t take it anymore” amid escalating political violence in the United States and suggested they might respond by targeting the left with violence.

“It’s going to get worse and ultimately it’s going to go back on them,” Trump said in the Oval Office on Sept. 25 in response to a question from a reporter. “Bad things happen when they play these games.”

Trump’s remarks came after a gunman opened fire on Sept. 24 at a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility, killing one detainee and injuring two others. Trump quickly blamed rhetoric from “radical-left Democrats” for the shooting, which came two weeks after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated while speaking on a college campus in Utah.

Will we soon see troops on the streets of major cities all over the country?

If so, how will radical leftists respond?

Lastly, there are some on social media that are suggesting that the mysterious meeting that is being held next week has to do with one of the extremely large comets that are now traveling through our solar system.

3I/ATLAS is not supposed to come anywhere near us, and we are only supposed to go through the orbital debris trail of C/2025 R2 (SWAN).

So at this moment it does not appear that either of them is a significant threat to us.

But maybe we aren’t being told everything.

Only time will tell.

Whatever this secret meeting is about, I just wish that they would invite me. I would love to talk to them about what is really coming.

We really are living in apocalyptic times, and I have a feeling that global events are going to become very “interesting” during the months ahead.

The Emir of Qatar set up his spinning carousel promising great sums of money to all who rode. This past week, the countries of Europe found themselves pushing and shoving as they lined up to sit astride one of the Sheikh’s wooden horses. All they needed to do to be admitted to this cash grab was to recognize the Palestinian state. The European states kissed the ring of the emir, and one-by-one they announced their acquiescence to the will of the Arab leader.

The United Kingdom, Australia, Portugal, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, Liechtenstein, and others all jumped aboard the Whirligig, while many of their citizens wondered what their leaders were doing. According to The Telegraph, nine out of ten Britons do not back Palestinian recognition. That may account for the UK backtracking and saying, “What we really meant to say was that we’ll fully recognize Palestine once the Palestinian Authority stops paying money to the families of terrorists who died while killing Israelis.” Oy vey, hypocrisy much?

This is simply Europe trying to bully the United States and Israel. Their attempts will be unfruitful, however. For some reason, Europe has not caught on that neither the current occupant of the White House nor the leader of the Israeli government gives two hoots about international opinions.

Erdoğan Coattails Palestinian Recognition

Never one to let an opportunity go to waste, Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan saw the European states rushing to recognize Palestine, and thought, “Hey, maybe they can recognize Northern Cyprus as Turkish, too!” There are two problems with that. First, Qatar has billions of dollars, while Turkey has millions of goats. Not quite the same appeal to the Western mindset. Second, the only reason that Turkey feels it can lay any claim to the northern part of Cyprus is because they poured hundreds of thousands of Turks onto the island, saturating the population. But just because you fill a certain area with a specific ethnic group doesn’t mean that place becomes a part of that ethnic group’s home country. Right, Dearborn? A third problem will only pop up if Erdoğan tries to force the issue. Israel has just reinforced Cyprus’s defenses with a new Barak MX aerial defense system. Pro tip, Mr. Erdoğan – don’t test its capabilities.

Trump Roasts the United Nations…Again

Some little mice at the United Nations tried to get under President Donald Trump’s skin, stopping an escalator that he and First Lady Melania were on and then causing issues with his teleprompter. But rather than let the situations trouble him, the president leaned into them, saying during his speech, “These are the two things I got from the United Nations – a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter. Thank you very much.”

In that speech, he made them pay in other ways, too, taking on climate change and calling it “the greatest con job ever.” He went on to say, “All of these predictions made by the United Nations were wrong, made by stupid people that cost their countries fortunes.” At one point, Trump called out Europe for buying oil and gas from Russia, even while they are fighting against Russia. Then, he addressed the Gaza war, stating that recognition of Palestine would be nothing but a prize for Hamas. He went on to say that there will be no end to the war until all the hostages, living and dead, are returned to Israel.

Every Nation’s Crazy for a Sharp-Dressed Terrorist

After meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Monday, the dapper Syrian terrorist and self-proclaimed president, Ahmad al-Sharaa, took to the UN podium on Wednesday to address the august crowd. The people went wild with admiration. I noticed during his speech that he failed to mention the Christian villages and towns that his people are burning to the ground, and the populations that he has been and is continuing to decimate. Not surprisingly, the media seemed not to notice those omissions. No Jews, no news.

Gaza War Nearing Its End

Hamas is collapsing, despite Egypt, Qatar, Turkey, and Iran fighting hard to bolster the terrorist group. Fearing a complete Israeli victory, Arab and European pressure is mounting for some kind of peace deal that allows the Palestinians continued control. Rumors spread that President Trump was about to offer a deal, but that appears to be fake news. Meanwhile, Operation Gideon’s Spear II continues. Hundreds of thousands of leaflets have been dropped with evacuation orders from Gaza City. Nearly 700,000 have listened and left, but 200,000 people still remain.

Houthi Drone Hits Its Mark in Israel

A Houthi drone yesterday hit the southern Israel city of Eilat, along the Red Sea. At least 20 were injured, including two who are in serious condition. The drone specifically targeted the city center where it could cause the most civilian casualties. Not surprisingly, video surfaced of Arabs on boats in the Red Sea cheering as they witnessed the explosion.

The Philosophical Sinking of the Gaza Flotilla

The Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) has been casually making its way toward Gaza with relief supplies, hoping to milk every last drop of media attention it can garner. Unfortunately for them, the attention they’ve been receiving lately isn’t the peace and love of hopeful volunteers, but infighting between various contrasting liberal factions.

Several days ago, disagreements caused Greta Thunberg to step down from her leadership role in the flotilla, even transferring from one boat to another. Now, it appears that local GSF coordinator Khaled Boujemâa resigned due to conflicts with a LGBTQ faction on board, including self-described “communist queer militant” Saif Ayadi. Others have grown disillusioned with the whole concept as they’ve watched it play out and have left the ships when they pull into ports.

Trump Declares Antifa a Domestic Terrorist Organization

President Donald Trump officially declared Antifa to be a domestic terrorist organization, then promptly slipped the signed paper into his manila file folder labeled, “Signed Declarations No Sane Person Could Possibly Disagree With”.

Google Admits to Biden Censorship

An amazing admission took place on Tuesday. In the House Judiciary Committee, Google admitted that the Biden administration pressured it to censor YouTube content makers that posted information contrary to the government narrative. This is an amazing story, which confirms what every non-Biden sycophant always knew. Read this short press release from the committee to learn how the U.S. government was intentionally censoring the practice of free speech.

Why are Boeing and Lockheed Selling Planes to Turkey?

Turkey’s government harbors radical Islamic terrorists, buys Russian weapons, occupies Cyprus, threatens Greece, and targets Kurds. So, why is Turkey being allowed to purchase additional F-16 jets and reenter the F-35 program? Asking for a friend.

Charlie Kirk Memorial

I was so thankful that God had worked out my schedule to come to the United States in such a way that I was able to attend Sunday’s memorial for Charlie Kirk. It was truly one of the most powerful events I have ever experienced. Not only was the Lord exalted and honored, but there was also a clear call to repentance and a powerful presentation of the gospel. Thousands of people in the stadium who did not have a personal relationship with Yeshua, as well as millions who watched the service live, could not help but have clearly heard the simple, perfect path to eternal life through faith in the Lord Jesus. I pray that Sunday was just the casting of the seeds of what will blossom into a global revival.

Have you had enough yet? Violence and lawlessness seem out of control. Senseless violence. Snipers unleashing bullets carved with evil messages on them! Who thinks this way?

The line-up of atrocities never ends. An innocent Ukrainian woman coming home from her pizza job, casually scrolling on her phone on a train in North Carolina, is stabbed to death by a demonized thug. She had left war-torn Ukraine for the supposed safety of America. Yet a monster lurked in the shadows and ended her young life. And it was all captured on camera.

Beyond Our Imagination

My hometown made notoriety again in a horrific manner—a school massacre. Children in a Catholic school five miles from where I grew up in south Minneapolis, were mowed down by a lunatic. The shooter blocked the church doors so that the children could not escape before he began shooting through the church windows. Can you imagine? I can’t.

Sure, the Bible says that evil is to get worse in the end-times (II Timothy 3:13), but who can comprehend such barbarism?

They said that about 9/11, which we recently observed and remembered as well. Even our national leaders admitted they didn’t have the imagination to anticipate the evil of Islam flying planes into buildings. More PTSD as we reflected back on that fateful day a week ago.

Don’t forget earlier this year, two Jewish believers were gunned down in Washington, D.C., and in June, an Egyptian terrorist set Jews on fire in Colorado a few days later. If we dared look, the Colorado event was also filmed and aired.

Good-Bye Charlie

Then on September 10, we had a flashback to July 13, 2024, when there was an assassination attempt on President Trump. This time, the target was Charlie Kirk, and this time, the shooter was successful.

What adds to the PTSD trauma is that 21st Century communications allow us to watch these horrors in real time—as it happens. Or, minutes later. We are viewing true horror show dramas that are unimaginable.

The assassination of conservative Christian Charlie Kirk was another shot heard around the world. But the bullet that killed Charlie didn’t kill a movement. It ignited many people to press on with truth-telling, love of country, and honoring God.

As one observer suggested, it is a reminder that speaking truth, particularly Biblical truth, is inherently dangerous in a world where truth sounds like hate to those who hate the truth. When leftists rejoice at the death of godly people, as they are doing with Kirk’s death, it is a foreshadowing of the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11. The world will rejoice over their demise as well.

Very often, the perpetrators of the carnage are deeply involved in alternative lifestyles, and so they view conservatives, Christians, and the biblical worldview as the enemy. We become their prime target just as the early martyrs of the church. Constantly accusing righteous or conservative people of being fascists and Nazis has deadly consequences.

Charlie has now finished his race, his earthly course, and we celebrate his graduation into the presence of Jesus Christ and the glories of eternity.

Demonic!

The New York Post, not known as a spiritual publication, had an appropriate one-word headline—“Demonic.” That accurately summarized the end-time fight we are in. Satan is making his last stand before the church is taken in the rapture, which removes believers from this sin-wracked, violent world.

But this is today’s progressive movement: twisted and evil. What a reminder that the last days will be as the days of Noah!

Romans One on Display

And to add to the lunacy, and what should convince us we are in a Romans one society, is that the deranged Left celebrates some of this. Again, this stretches credulity and is beyond our imagination. It is last days delusion. The prophet Isaiah told us that evil would be called good by some (Isaiah 5:20). So, watchmen suffering from PTSD is a pretty normal reaction!

Take these daily evil reminders with the assurance that they are a sign that Jesus is coming again. Our rescue is coming. Soon. Perhaps today.

Shock.

Horror.

Disbelief.

In the moments after learning the news, these emotions swept over many Americans.

Then came the questions. Why did this happen? Who is behind it? Are there other targets? How do we move forward? What will America be like tomorrow?

Twenty-four years and one day separate the despicable murders that brought similar emotions and questions for many Americans.

September 11, 2001, is a date forever etched upon the minds and hearts of Americans old enough to remember the devastating attacks by terrorists who hijacked planes and used them as weapons of mass destruction. Evil people plotted to destroy America. The terrorists wanted to instill fear and panic to make America stop in its tracks and cower in the corner.

On that day, a 7-year-old boy, growing up in the Chicago suburbs, saw how evil could bring a nation to its knees. But he also saw the resolve of a nation that stood up to bullies and proudly protected its freedoms.

That boy grew into a man who loved Jesus, his family and his country. He displayed a tenacious boldness to confront evil. A gifted communicator and keen debater, Charlie Kirk was a star that shone brightly as he championed biblical values in the political arena. This freedom-loving American took on ideological bullies and proudly defended the truth.

September 10, 2025, will live on in its own form of infamy. Twenty-four years minus one day after September 11, 2001, a Christian citizen like you and me, Kirk, became the target of an evil person – or movement, perhaps – who plotted to destroy him and what he stood for. The assassin wanted to silence this bold conservative voice and many like-minded Americans. The goal was widespread panic, intimidation and destruction.

In a moment, with one fatal shot, the gunman killed 31-year-old Kirk, striking terror into the hearts of many. But just as on September 11, 2001, this terrorist didn’t defeat what Kirk represented.

I believe what this murderer intended for evil will be turned into good, as a chorus of Christians with a biblical worldview are now emboldened to live out their faith in the public square.

The Demonic Roots of this Rage

What is the root of these murderous actions? Jesus reveals the answer in the Gospel of John.

Locked in a furious debate over His Messianic claims, Jesus spoke hard truths to the crowd surrounding Him. “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not” (John 8:44-45).

When a society walks away from the truth, it opens the door for unbridled lawlessness, lust and yes, even murder. Jesus boldly warned His hearers that this attitude is demonically inspired. Satan twisted God’s truth to convince Adam and Eve to follow their hearts and write their own truth. He baited the devilish hook and caught them when they took the bait. He enjoyed watching their destruction. What a demonic attitude!

This demonic agenda is very much at work in the world today. We saw it on September 11, 2001. We saw it on September 10, 2025. This sinful world spirals downward toward its doom.

Jesus warned His fellow truth-tellers to expect rejection and hatred: “If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you” (John 15:18).

Because he spoke the truth, Kirk was hated by some Americans. But he never led an army or a militia. He never took up arms in his fight. His weapons were words as he fought against ideas destroying countless souls and the fabric of America’s foundation. And he fought valiantly.

Jesus also said, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10). The September 11 hijackers and Charlie Kirk’s killer followed their father, the devil, in stealing, killing and destroying innocent lives.

That is the great contrast in John 10:10. Jesus came to give His abundant life! Satan will never win. Jesus promised the devil’s defeat. One day, evil will be defeated once and for all.

God will judge evil. He always has and always will. He came in judgment when Adam and Eve sinned. He brought the flood of judgment upon Noah’s day. He will not stand idly by while evil destroys His creation. The Tribulation judgment could be right around the corner, friends.

“What is God waiting for?” someone, no doubt, is asking. If God is going to judge evil, why doesn’t He do it already? The beautiful biblical truth is that in His wrath toward sin, God is merciful to sinners. Every breath that enters our lungs and every beat of our hearts is a gift of God’s mercy and grace. He is giving humanity something it does not deserve: the gift of everlasting life through Jesus alone.

Second Peter 3:9 teaches that God is not delaying His judgment. He isn’t lazy or indecisive; rather, He is patient with people because He doesn’t want anyone to go to hell. He wants everyone to repent from their sin and be saved by Jesus. That is why His final judgment on Earth hasn’t fallen yet. But, mark it down, one day it will.

Where Do We Go from Here?

While the death of Charlie Kirk is truly tragic, it is not the end of the story for him, for his family, and for the church of Jesus Christ.

Based on his testimony of faith in Jesus, we know the young patriot is with the Lord right now. However, he leaves behind a precious widow and two young children who will grow up without their father. We, as the church, must continue to lift them up in prayer. We pray that the peace of God that passes all understanding will guard their hearts and minds through Christ Jesus our Lord (Phil. 4:6). We pray that the Lord will make His presence keenly felt to the Kirk family during the days, weeks, and years ahead.

God has His church on Earth for such a time as this. He wants us to minister effectively in this dark world, right here, right now. This generation needs God’s truth. I believe we will see some remarkable things happen in these days for God’s glory.

Until the rapture trumpet sounds, the church must not cower in the corner. The forces of darkness want the truth-tellers to shut up and run away from the public arena. We must stand boldly upon God’s Truth as the Bible declares. We must live out our faith through our actions, yes, but also through our words.

We must not allow evil to destroy our families, our churches, and our nation. We must continue boldly declaring God’s truth, just as Noah did in his generation.

The church must heed the words of Jesus: “What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matt. 10:27-28).

Since our souls are secure in Jesus, why should Christians be afraid of anything or anyone, including death? Stand fearlessly, fellow Christians, for victory was won at Calvary!

Pray for Charlie Kirk, he's🙏 just been shot in Utah
