On Sept. 24, 2026, the Prophecy News Watch (PNW) staff posted an excellent article that says two visions of the future are taking shape.

They noted that world leaders have gathered for a UN meeting in New York to speak about war, security, artificial intelligence, climate, international law, and the future.

But these leaders are espousing two different visions about how the world should be governed.

Here is part of what the PNW staff said:

One places national sovereignty at the center.

Nations cooperate when it serves their interests but ultimately retain control over their laws, borders, technology, military, and foreign policy.

The other places growing emphasis on multilateralism: stronger international institutions, global standards, international law and coordinated action when individual governments refuse to follow an emerging international consensus.

As to where America stands at this time, the PNW staff said:

• Trump’s message to the United Nations was unmistakable.
• America will cooperate, negotiate, and maintain alliances, but it will not surrender its sovereignty to international institutions.
• He denounced attempts by unelected “globalist bureaucrats” to dictate policy to sovereign nations.

After some important discussion of the two visions (and their disagreement over what world leaders should do about Israel), the PNW staff pointed out that the U.S. changes presidents.

• And the unanswered question may be where America will stand in the future.
• Will America continue to be a sovereign nation, or will America align itself with the unelected globalist bureaucrats?

(More: On Sept. 29, 2096, it was reported that more than 600 immigrants are moving north through Mexico toward the U. S., coinciding with the lead-up to the midterm elections in November. They want a Democrat takeover of Congress in the midterms and a shift toward more relaxed border enforcement.)

(My opinion: When God removes all Christians from the earth, every nation except Israel, but including America, will be ruled by an unelected individual called the Antichrist; Rev. 13:7. At the end of the Tribulation Period, God will cause the Antichrist to gather armies from all the nations at the Valley of Jehoshaphat and destroy them; Rev. 19.)

Here are some recent events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near:

One, on Sept. 24, 2026, Barry Stagner (author of 7 books on Bible prophecy) posted a brief article on Harbingers.com that says in part:

• The world is readying itself for the ministry of the false prophet and his global religious system.
• The pump is being primed by people’s demands that all religions be viewed as equal and that adherents of every religion respect the beliefs of others.
• This will never happen, and the only solution is for people to develop a one-world religion.
• The world is making itself ready for the greatest deception in all of human history: the pseudo-peace that will be offered to the world through the worship of the antichrist.
• While it is clear that today’s growing call for religious ecumenism is setting the stage for a one-world religion, what is often overlooked is the nature of that final global religion.
• It will not be Catholicism blended with Islam blended with Buddhism, like many have purported.
• Revelation 13 makes it clear that the global religion of the tribulation will be Satan worship.
• Everyone whose name is not written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will worship the dragon who empowers and gives global authority to the beast.
• Imagine a world filled with Satan worshippers, and you can easily arrive at an understanding of why the tribulation saints will be hated to the degree that people prefer to see them dead. After all, their “god” only comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy (John 10:10).

Two, concerning world government: on Sept. 30, 2026, Alex Newman (The Liberty Sentinel) said:

• President Trump delivered a fiery address at the United Nations, declaring there will be “no global government” and “no global taxes” while he is president.
• He blasted the International Criminal Court, mass migration, UNESCO, and efforts to impose global control over artificial intelligence.
• The president also issued a stark warning to Iran and predicted the eventual collapse of Cuba’s communist regime, causing the Cuban delegation to leave the UN floor.

Three, concerning wars and rumors of wars at the end of the age: on Sept. 28, 2026, it was reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin has just signed a decree to increase the size of the Russian army to 2.4 million active-duty members.

Experts think it will take 5-10 years for Russia to train and equip the troops that will be necessary to reach this goal.

(More: Ukraine said that more than 8,000 North Korean troops are already on Russian soil and that Pyongyang is preparing to send another 10,000.)

(More: On Sept. 30, 2026, it was reported that Russia warned NATO that Russia will be ready to use the entire arsenal of forces and capabilities at its disposal, including nuclear weapons, if NATO countries attempt to isolate Kaliningrad from the rest of Russia. Kaliningrad is a heavily militarized Russian exclave on the Baltic Sea.)

Four, concerning deception at the end of the age: on Sept. 30, 2026, Hal Turner said,

• Word is out that Secretary of State Marco Rubio ORDERED the Iran Delegation in New York to leave the United States immediately on Monday night into Tuesday morning because negotiations with Iran were not making progress.
• The Iran Delegation was taken to the airport, put on a plane to Doha, Qatar and departed New York City at 1:20 AM on Tuesday morning.  In simple terms, they were thrown out.
• President Trump canceled the planned trip by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Pakistan to resume negotiations with Iran.
• Trump said we will not be making any more 18-hour flights to sit around and talk about nothing.
• Iran can call anytime.

Turner added his observations:

• This proves Iran negotiations went absolutely nowhere, and now it proves no new negotiations will take place.
• All claims to the contrary for the past weeks have been utterly false.
• Anyone thinking the Oil Flow from the Middle East will resume is delusional.
• Anyone with an above-room-temperature IQ knows claims to the contrary are outright lies.
• The strait is closed.
• Oil is not flowing.
• Inflation is not 3%.
• The U.S. Treasuries Bond market is not okay.
• Gas prices will not go down to $2.
• Diesel Prices will not go down.
• Home Heating Oil Prices will not go down.
• The war will not end after the midterms.
• It has ALL been lies.

Five, concerning the availability of diesel: on Oct. 1, 2026, it was reported that the U.S.  has asked the EU to release 120 million barrels of diesel from its strategic preserves over the next six months.

They have called a meeting to discuss it, and if they do, it will amount to more than 40 percent of the bloc’s emergency diesel and gasoil reserves.

Six, concerning deceit at the end of the age: on Oct. 7, 2026, following extensive research, Israel said that 170 Gazans killed during the war who were presented as journalists and media personnel were in fact serving as terrorists for terror organizations in the Strip, foremost among them Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

Seven, concerning hatred for Israel at the end of the age: on Oct. 1, 2026, it was reported that a new poll has found that nearly one in five likely American voters say they would accept a peace agreement ending the Iran war that would dissolve the State of Israel and replace it with a Palestinian state if the deal also brought lower oil and gasoline prices.

(My opinion: God will not allow the destruction of Israel, and He will eventually destroy any nation that tries to do it. Those in America that are willing to accept the destruction of Israel for lower oil and gasoline prices are inviting the destruction of America. And we know that America will eventually surrender to the Antichrist’s one-world government.)

Here are some day-to-day reports on what is happening in the U.S.-Iran war:

This is at least the third time that he has threatened to destroy Iran) (The war is now 1,083 days old)

• An Israeli source said, “Another round of strikes against Iran is only a matter of time. Iran is accelerating the transfer of key components of its nuclear program to the fortified underground facility at Pickaxe Mountain, near Natanz. We have identified Iranian attempts to advance a nuclear weapon through its nuclear program. We will strike Iran’s nuclear facilities again if Tehran crosses the red lines.”

• Hal Turner said the US committed to selling 172M barrels out of the US SPR as part of the joint IEA 400M global release.

• Iran has just struck an oil tanker transiting the Strait of Hormuz under US escort in the US-backed southern Omani corridor. A fire has broken out aboard the tanker.
• Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered the Iran Delegation in New York to leave the United States immediately because negotiations with Iran were not making progress.

• Trump said, “I have to make a decision; either Iran signs a deal, or it won’t exist any longer.”

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God, who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and rose from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

On Sept. 17, 2026, the Prophecy News Watch Staff posted an article about the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.

Here is an excerpt:

• “On Rosh Hashanah this year, something remarkable happened on the Temple Mount.
• Hundreds of Jews ascended the mountain.
• Organized Jewish prayer continued there for hours.
• Worshippers openly carried prayer books and wore traditional prayer shawls.
• Then the shofar sounded.
• And beside it sounded two silver trumpets—recreating a combination of instruments associated with worship in ancient Jerusalem.
• A Temple has not been rebuilt.
• Sacrifices have not resumed.
• But increasingly, people are preparing as though they someday could.
• They Aren’t Just Talking About a Temple.
• The trumpets are only one piece of a much larger story.
• Jewish organizations dedicated to preparing for a future Temple have spent decades researching exactly how biblical Temple worship functioned.
• Sacred vessels have been recreated.
• Priestly garments have been produced.
• The procedures surrounding sacrifices have been studied.
• Priests descended from the biblical priestly line have received instruction concerning Temple service.
• These efforts are not about constructing a museum exhibit depicting ancient Judaism.
• The stated objective of groups such as the Temple Institute is the eventual restoration of Temple worship.
• That changes the significance of what is happening.
• Numbers 19 describes a purification ceremony involving an unblemished red cow.
• Its ashes were mixed with water and used to cleanse people from ritual impurity associated with contact with the dead.
• To most people, it is one of the more obscure commandments in the Old Testament.
• To Jews preparing for renewed Temple worship, it is anything but obscure.
• They believe restoring biblical standards of purification is necessary before full Temple worship can resume.
• That is why enormous attention has been given to finding red heifers that could potentially meet the biblical requirements.
• Practical preparations for the ceremony have also taken place.
• Think about what that means.
• People are not simply asking whether another Temple could someday stand in Jerusalem.
• They are working through the details of how worship could actually begin.
• Even Israeli Politics Is Changing.”

Here is a link to the entire article.

https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=10505

(My comment: It is my understanding that some of the Jews believe the Messiah will give them permission to rebuild the Temple. Sadly, they will accept the Antichrist as their Messiah, so some prophecy teachers believe they will rebuild it early in the Tribulation Period. See John 5:43.)

Here are some recent events that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near:

One, concerning Syria, with possible implications for the destruction of Damascus in one night:

• Instead of investing in infrastructure, rebuilding the country, or improving the welfare of civilians who suffered through 15 years of war, the extremist (Syrian) regime is focusing on an arms buildup while working to conceal its military expansion strategy.
• The development is raising concern and red flags within the (Israeli) intelligence community.

(More: On Sept. 20, 2026, an ammunition depot exploded in Aleppo, northwestern Syria. Multiple secondary explosions were seen and heard in the vicinity.)

Two, concerning the price of diesel fuel with the possible implications for inflation and famine: on Sept. 18, 2026, Lily-Rose Dawson posted the following:

• “There is a number running your entire life and you have never once looked at it. The price of diesel. Nobody thinks about diesel.
• Our cars take regular.
• Diesel belongs to truckers and farmers and guys who wear boots for a reason.
• Not our problem.
• Diesel is your dinner.
• Every bite of food you have ever eaten rode on it at some point.
• The truck that hauled it.
• The train before the truck.
• The ship before the train.
• And it goes deeper than shipping.
• The tractor that planted the seed burns diesel.
• The combine that cut the crop burns diesel.
• The fertilizer that kept the whole thing alive showed up on a diesel truck.
• Diesel touched your breakfast more times than you did.”

(More: On Sept. 22, 2026, Michael Snyder reported that 16% of France’s gas stations are out of at least one type of fuel, and there are quite a few nations in Asia that are now imposing very strict measures in order to conserve energy. My comment: If Macron is the Antichrist, he is not doing a very good job of heading up France.)

Three, concerning the rise of the New World Order (world government, the Great Reset, the North American Union, etc.): on Sept. 22, 2026, Rhoda Wilson posted the following in The Expose:

• “President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Mark Carney are like chalk and cheese.
• Carney is pursuing a transformation of Canada to align with a “new world order,” rejecting a return to the previous political and economic status quo.
• Trump, on the other hand, is rejecting and pushing back against various nefarious agendas of the “new world order” ideology.
• Many Canadians share President Trump’s view.”

(My opinion: Trump is for MAGA and Carney is against it. A world government is coming, and the struggle between Trump and Carney won’t stop it. The question is: What will bring it about? Could it be the Battle of Gog and Magog; the defeat of Russia, Iran, Turkey, and many Islamic nations? Or could it be the Rapture; the removal of the Restrainer? Or what?)

Four, concerning wars and rumors of wars, specifically the Russia–Ukraine war: on Sept. 22, 2026, Hal Turner said:

• “Yesterday, Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky proposed an immediate, unconditional ceasefire with the agreement a peace would be negotiated by international mediators.
• This morning (eastern US Time) Russia rejected that proposal, calling it pointless and instead suggested underlying issues of the conflict had to be addressed.
• The fighting goes on.
• Overnight in Europe, 100,000 troops got orders to begin moving.
• They are moving toward Russia’s Kaliningrad, and toward the Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.
• Numerous trains are also hauling Main Battle Tanks like Abrams, Leopard 2’s, armored Personnel Carriers, and artillery, toward Kaliningrad and the Baltics.”

(My comment: According to the Bible, Russia’s army and air force – planes, drones, helicopters, etc. – will be destroyed by God, not EU troops. And they will be destroyed on the mountains of Israel, not in Kaliningrad or the Baltics.)

(More: On Sept. 22, 2026, Ukrainian Pres. Zelensky said Pres. Trump agreed to grant licenses for the production of missiles for Patriot systems.)

Five, concerning antisemitism: on Sept. 22, 2026, Amir Tsarfati wrote:

• “Some people believe that worldwide support for Israel, now at an all-time low, is a death warrant for the Jewish state.
• I would argue that it is further proof of the validity, authenticity, and accuracy of the Bible, which foretold two things concerning Israel: First, the nations would eventually come against Jerusalem. Second, God would fight for us and deliver us.
• At the end of this bumpy road, He will send His Son back to reign and rule.
• Israel will look upon Messiah Yeshua whom they pierced, mourn, repent, be saved, and enter His earthly kingdom, where Jerusalem will be lifted above the nations.
• This is the kingdom the disciples were so eager to understand when, only moments before Yeshua’s ascension, they asked: “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” (Acts 1:6).
• We are living in historic times.
• God is watching to see who will remain faithful and stand in the gap for His people Israel.
• One day, He will judge the nations on that very account: “For behold, in those days and at that time, When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of My people, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided up My land” (Joel 3:1–2).
• Until then: Let the hater hate. Let the liar lie. And let God be true.
• “Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar” (Romans 3:4).

Six, concerning an increase in knowledge at the end of the age: on Sept. 22, 2026, Pres. Trump proposed renaming “artificial intelligence” as “super intelligence” because “artificial intelligence” sounds like it is “fake intelligence.”

Pres. Trump said, “From this point forward, all of the United States’ documents, and hopefully the world’s, will be changed to use the much more accurate term ‘super’ as opposed to ‘artificial.’”

Seven, for whatever it is worth, on Sept. 23, 2026, Business Insider reported that an article in GlobeNewswire says:

• “An international team of American researchers, scientists, geologists, and archaeologists from Noah’s Ark Scans, in partnership with Turkish universities, has begun collecting core samples from the Durupınar Formation (a 515-foot-long, boat-shaped feature on Mount Ararat) at depths of up to 18 meters (about 60 ft) and is preparing to send the Gopher drone into mapped voids, organized tunnels, and corridors inside the hull of what many believe to be Noah’s Ark.”

Here are daily reports on the U.S.–Iran war:

Wed. 191 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 16, 2026) (Day 148 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (107 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (The war is now 1,075 days old)

• An attack on Saudi Arabia’s East-West Pipeline struck the system at multiple locations and damaged at least one pumping station, forcing Riyadh to shut down the Kingdom’s critical alternative to the Strait of Hormuz. It is estimated that the pipeline was moving roughly 4 million bpd around Hormuz before the attack. A prolonged outage could ultimately threaten 3.5–4 million bpd of Saudi crude exports. The line is due to partially restart within days and be fully back up and running within six weeks, a person familiar with the matter said.

Thurs. 192 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 17, 2026) (Day 149 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (108 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (The war is now 1,076 days old)

• Trump said, “I have a big decision coming up. Do I want to go in and annihilate them [the Iranian regime] or do I not? It’s a big decision. Anything could happen with me.”

Fri. 193 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 18, 2026) (Day 150 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (109 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (The war is now 1,077 days old)

• According to the Jerusalem Post, when Pres. Trump addresses the UN on Sept. 22, 2026, he will face a deeply skeptical audience increasingly rattled by six months of war between US forces and an emboldened Iran, growing regional instability and a nuclear threat that has not disappeared despite his claims.

Sat. 194 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 19, 2026) (Day 151 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (110 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (The war is now 1,078 days old)

• Riyadh has witnessed explosions, black smoke and flames near King Khalid International Airport amid escalating tensions with Yemen’s Ansarallah forces. AFP reported an Aramco fuel tank was on fire, while FlightRadar24 recorded major disruptions, including flight delays and cancellations. Saudi authorities had issued an overnight air raid alert for Riyadh and Al-Kharj. Residents later reported hearing more explosions across the Saudi capital as concerns over regional escalation continued.
• Amir Tsarfati asked, “Where are the Pakistanis and Turks?” He said Saudi Arabia is under a massive Houthi attack and called the Mecca defense pact useless and a PR stunt.

Sun. 195 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 20, 2026) (Day 152 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (111 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (The war is now 1,079 days old)

• Ukraine launched over 1,000 drones at Moscow, killing four people and injuring at least 20 others. The drones struck a residential building and the Moscow oil refinery, which supplies roughly 40% of the city’s fuel.

Mon. 196 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 21, 2026) (Day 153 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (112 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (The war is now 1,080 days old)

• US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says he will shut down all Iranian airlines across the globe starting September 23. Airports that provide services to Iranian airlines will be cut off from the dollar system.

Tue. 197 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 22, 2026) (Day 154 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (113 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (Today, Trump told the UN Gen. Assembly that Iran has a choice: capitulate or be annihilated. This is at least the third time that he has threatened to destroy Iran) (The war is now 1,081 days old)

• Israel’s Defense Min. threatened to destroy all that remains of Gaza City and to force around one million Gazans to evacuate if Hamas, egged on by Iran or Turkey, takes a single Israeli hostage.

(My comment: Iran will be destroyed by God, not Pres. Trump.).

Wed. 198 days after Operation Roaring Lion/ Epic Fury (Sept. 23, 2026) (Day 155 of Trump’s latest ceasefire extension) (114 days from the day Pres. Trump said he will declare total victory over Iran) (Today, Trump told the UN Gen. Assembly that Iran has a choice: capitulate or be annihilated. This is at least the third time that he has threatened to destroy Iran) (The war is now 1,082 days old)

• The Islamic Republic of Iran has been elected by secret ballot to the U.N. nuclear watchdog’s General Committee one week after the same body condemned Iran for non-compliance.

(My comment: Actions like this are why I call the U.N. the United Nothing.)

• Argentina’s president, Javier Milei, stood at the UN and told them the truth they did not want to hear. This organization is useless. It failed to stop chaos, violence, and international terrorism. It shelters bloodthirsty dictatorships that stone women in the streets. The people running it are not peacemakers. They are arrogant parasites pretending to be bureaucrats. Instead of dealing with the real problems in the world, they just keep voting against Israel. They stay silent on Islamic terrorism and on the killing of Christians in Africa.

Finally, are you Rapture Ready?

If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God, who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and was raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.
