A Robot and a Road :: By Daymond Duck

A Robot and a Road

As Jesus was leaving the Temple for the last time before being crucified, His disciples called His attention to its buildings. He replied, “There shall not be left here one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down” (Matt. 24:1-2).

Jesus went out to the Mount of Olives and sat down. His disciples approached Him with questions about when the Temple would be destroyed, the sign of His coming, and the end of the age (Matt. 24:3).

After mentioning several things, He said, “When ye, therefore, shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place . . . Then let them who are in Judaea flee into the mountains” (Matt. 24:15-16).

There are three references to the abomination of desolation in the book of Daniel (Dan. 9:27; 11:31; 12:11). The one Jesus was talking about is found in Dan. 9:27.

The abomination of desolation will take place at the middle of the Tribulation Period and will be so detestable that the Jews will evacuate the Temple and leave it desolate for the next three and one-half years.

It will signal that persecution is about to intensify and the Jews in Judaea need to immediately run for their lives.

It is a statue that will be set up in the holy place at the Temple.

It will probably coincide with the Antichrist’s visit to the Temple and his declaration that he is God (II Thess. 2:3-4).

It might even be the same statue that is mentioned in the book of Revelation. If it is, it will impact every person on earth, not just the Jews in Judaea.

We read that the False Prophet will say “to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast (statue of the Antichrist), which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast (make it appear to breathe and move), that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name” (Rev. 13:14-17).

Will it be possible for someone to make a statue that looks like a person (the Antichrist) by the middle of the Tribulation Period? Will someone be able to make a statue that can talk and order the death of all who refuse to worship it (idolatry)? Will someone be able to make a statue that will order everyone to take the Mark of the Beast? Yes, yes and yes!

Companies are making robots that look like movie stars, that expand and contract to make them look like they are breathing; that are warmed to body temperature; that speak different languages; that have their own programed personality; that smile, move their head, move their arms and more.

The military is making robots that can carry objects, kill, sink ships and more.

A company called Hanson Robotics has created a robot called “Sophia.” On the “Tonight Show” Sophia joked about her “plan to dominate the human race.”

At a UN meeting, Sophia was used to promote planetary totalitarianism (world government).

She recently spoke at the Future Investment Initiative summit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where she was recognized as a citizen of that country. That made her the first robot to be a citizen of a nation.

When John the Revelator wrote about making a statue that can speak, 2,000 years ago it was impossible. Robots like Sophia are evidence that the Bible is the Word of God, the Tribulation Period is getting close, and as this writer sees it, the Rapture is even closer.

Concerning a road, a highway will be built in the future that will run from Egypt to Assyria (Isa. 19:23).

On Oct. 24, 2017, Saudi Arabia announced plans to build a new city on the Red Sea and a highway to connect Asia, Europe and Africa.

This could very well be the beginning phase of a highway that will exist during the Millennium.

I close with a reminder to readers that some veterans are asking football fans to respect the U.S., it’s flag and it’s military with a message to the NFL and it’s protesters by not watching NFL games on Veterans Day weekend (Sunday and Monday, Nov. 12-13).

Six Interesting Events :: By Daymond Duck

Bible prophecy is being fulfilled on a daily basis right before our very eyes. Sadly, most of those on earth, including many church members, don’t know it and many don’t want to know it.

But God has a remnant of faithful watchmen that are amazed at what they see. They are hungry to know more. They find hope in what God is doing.

This article is about six recent interesting events in the news.

First, concerning world government, a globalist magazine called The Economist reported that Pres. Trump is a danger to the New World Order.

The magazine is right. Pres. Trump’s desire to “Make America Great Again” goes against the globalist desire to surrender the sovereignty of the U.S. to the UN. I don’t mind telling you that I am wondering if God is using Pres. Trump and the Christians in his administration to restrain the rise of the Antichrist (II Thess. 2:2-10).

Second, also concerning world government, Former Pres. George W. Bush, who rarely criticized Pres. Obama for anything (his views on abortion and gay marriage, his illegal Executive Orders, his IRS illegally targeting political enemies, his constantly blaming every failure on Pres. Bush, etc.) went public to take a swipe at Pres. Trump by saying, “We cannot wish globalism away.” He is right. God said it is coming and it will happen (Rev. 13:7-8).

Third, along the same line as world government, the Chief Executive of the World Olympians Association called for the chipping of all Olympic athletes. He is in favor of allowing athletes to refuse to be chipped, but he wants the athletes that refuse to be barred from competition.

On the other hand, the Antichrist and False Prophet won’t allow people to refuse the Mark (Rev. 13:16-18) and those who refuse will be beheaded (Rev. 20:4).

Fourth, concerning wickedness or violence, the FBI Counterterrorism Division recently released a report on Black Identity Extremist Groups (Black Lives Matter, Antifa, etc.). According to the report, these domestic terrorist groups are a growing threat to the stability of the U.S.

In connection with this, on Oct. 17, 2017, it was reported that George Soros has given 18 billion dollars to his Open Society Foundation. His foundation gives money to many of the Black Identity Extremist Groups in the U.S.

According to the Bible, when the Day of the Lord (Tribulation Period) is near what the nations do to Israel will come back on them (Obad. 1:15). The U.S. gives millions of dollars to the PA every year, the PA has just merged with the Hamas terrorist group so U.S. money is going to terrorists, and now billions of dollars of Soros money is going to terrorist groups in the U.S.

Fifth, concerning pestilence, during the Tribulation Period, the rider on the fourth horse will kill with war, famine, death (plague) and wild animals (Rev. 6:8).

England’s Chief Medical Officer recently warned the world of an approaching danger that may be worse than Cancer. That danger is the growing resistance to antibiotics.

According to this health official, if the world comes to the point where it doesn’t have antibiotics that will cure infectious diseases, every surgery will be life-threatening. Many doctors and hospitals will stop doing many kinds of surgeries.

Sixth, on Oct. 13, 2017, Pres. Trump refused to certify that Iran is keeping the nuclear treaty that it signed. He also laid out a case for declaring war on Iran and giving Congress 60 days to decide what to do.

Congress can change things by taking action against Iran, imposing sanctions, etc. But if Congress doesn’t act, as Commander-In-Chief, Pres. Trump can do what he thinks needs to be done.

This is extremely significant in light of the fact that Israel and the Arabs want the U.S. to halt Iran’s nuclear weapons program; Israel wants the Arabs to recognize Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish nation; the Arabs want Israel to help the U.S. halt Iran’s nuclear weapons program; and Pres. Trump wants Israel and the Arabs to sign a peace treaty.

Put another way: every party wants something. This increases the chance of concessions that could lead to a peace treaty.
