ON THE EDGE OF THE PRECIPICE

Apostasy and Doctrines of Demons

Mother Earth Religion and Hoax

UK government funds idiotic project to remove CO2 from the oceans as part of its efforts to address climate change. One notable project is Sea CURE, a pilot scheme that aims to test whether removing CO2 from seawater and burying it in the ground can be an effective way to fight climate change.

Hatred of Jews and Israel

‘Act of evil’: Christians react to murder of Israeli Embassy staff in Washington, DC. The shooting happened at an event hosted by the American Jewish Committee. The victims, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, were a “couple about to be engaged.” The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, reportedly shouted “free, free Palestine!” while in custody. Also see The Closer Israel Gets To Victory Over Hamas, The More The Nations Rage. A look at his life reveals he’s a vile, antisemitic, radical socialist supporter of Hamas, and this assassination was planned in advance. Actually, I should say the murder was planned; victims were random as long as they were Jews.

UK Suspends Trade Talks With Israel, Calling Israel’s Actions Against Hamas ‘Intolerable.’
The UK also recalled its ambassador over what the Prime Minister called Israel’s “intolerable” military operation in Gaza.

Arsonist sparks Jerusalem valley fire that is now in ‘containment stage.’

Islam Incursion

First-Ever Judeo-Christian Capitol Day Comes to Texas (May 20). This monumental gathering marks a turning point in Texas history. After years of the terror-tied Council on American Islamic Relations dominating the Capitol with its Islamic lobbying days, Texans are taking back their house with a bold stand for faith, family, and freedom.

Pervasive Perversion

Texas advances 3 more bills against transgender agenda and to protect parental rights. The state legislature is working to pass bills to protect parents from having to affirm gender confusion; require insurance companies that cover transitions to also cover detransitions; andcodify accurate definitions of gender terms.

Trans activists unveil massive transgender pride flag at Yosemite National Park while condemning Trump. LGBTQ+ activist rock climbers erected the massive 55-by-35-foot transgender pride flag on May 20 in order to “make a statement,” the group explained.

And the Abortion Abomination

House passage of bill defunding Planned Parenthood draws excitement, caution from pro-lifers. Pro-life and Christian leaders offered mixed reactions after the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill this week that would strip federal funding from the nation’s largest abortion provider, as it still awaits approval from the U.S. Senate and President Trump.

Plandemics

WHO assembly adopts ‘pandemic agreement’ binding countries to unified response. The World Health Organization’s newly adopted Pandemic Agreement binds member countries to a unified, WHO-directed response to future pandemics, raising concerns about national sovereignty and global control.

Last Days Traitors

Israel’s Deep State Fears a Jewish Victory More than a Jihadist Enemy. While the Right fights tooth and nail to bring Jews home and dismantle Hamas, Israel’s deep state, its entrenched political, legal, and security elites, are waging a different war: A war to stop the Right from winning. Why? Because they fear a victorious, confident, Jewish Israel led by the religious Right more than they fear another October 7th.

Nation (Ethnic) Against Nation (Ethnic)

Trump discusses Afrikaner attacks with South African president during Oval Office meeting. President Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, presenting him with videos and images illustrating the severe mistreatment of White farmers in South Africa.

UK Welcomes South African Activist Who Chants About Killing White Farmers. Julius Malema, a South African political figure who openly sings “Kill the Boer” at rallies, glorifies racial violence, and promotes land expropriation without compensation, was welcomed. The message is clear: ideas from the Right are criminalized, but hate from the Left is indulged.

Weather Events

US: Over a Dozen Tornadoes struck Oklahoma, Arkansas, & Nebraska on May 19, destroying multiple homes.

Australia: Record flooding kills at least 3; thousands stranded, and rain is not over yet. Over just three days, parts of eastern Australia have been inundated with at least a month’s worth of rain, leading to record flooding that has left at least three people dead. Officials said at least one person remained missing on May 22 as heavy rain was expected to continue into May 23.

India: Three dead, over 500 homes flooded after torrential rain hit Bengaluru May 18-19. Relief operations are ongoing as further rainfall is forecast for the next five days. Also see Unseasonal rains leave 24 dead in Maharashtra, Red alerts still in place. And Storms kill 56 across Uttar Pradesh, damage infrastructure and crops.

Africa: 4 killed, over 3,000 displaced after heavy rain triggers flooding in Ghana’s capital city of Accra May 18.

Philippines: Floods affect 270,000 people in Maguindanao del Sur.. Heavy rains linked to the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) have affected over 270,000 people between May 14-22. Floodwaters have damaged homes and disrupted transportation, forcing thousands to seek shelter in evacuation centers.

Wars and Rumors of Wars

Secretary of State Rubio believes Syria may be weeks away from collapse and civil war. He said, “It is our assessment that, frankly, the transitional authority, given the challenges they’re facing, are maybe weeks—not many months—away from potential collapse and a full-scale civil war of epic proportions, basically the country splitting up.”

The Two-State Delusion

The Great Betrayal: Western Powers Will Turn on Israel During June Conference. In a move that should alarm every Bible-believing Christian and Israel supporter, world leaders are gathering in June to press forward a plan that threatens Israel’s survival: the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state. France’s Emmanuel Macron and Saudi Arabia are hosting this dangerous summit in New York. This unholy alliance between Western secularism and Islamic autocracy is directing the global community toward recognizing a Palestinian state. This effort, cloaked in diplomatic jargon and humanitarian rhetoric, is in reality a campaign to delegitimize Israel, embolden terror, and dismantle biblical promises that have stood for millennia.

One-World Evil Godless Government

Moves Toward a Revived Roman Empire? A number of developments in Europe this year indicate the revived Roman Empire foretold in Daniel and Revelation is drawing closer. In the video, we look at news from this past week, trends over the past several years, and one event around the corner – all related to further growth of the European Union as a major economic and military power. Most importantly, we talk about how this all relates to Bible prophecy.

Moving Closer Toward the Mark of the Beast

The Digital Euro Is Coming: CBDCs and the Shadow of Revelation 13. This is more than just a change in how people pay for groceries. It is a change in who controls the purse strings of the free world. And Christians, especially those who take Bible prophecy seriously, have every reason to pay attention. Christians have long wrestled with the meaning of the “mark of the beast” in Revelation 13. For centuries, the idea that people could be universally controlled in commerce seemed far-fetched. Gold, silver, and paper money made such control difficult, even unthinkable. Now? That picture is no longer hard to imagine.

Revelation 13 warns of a time when no one will be able to buy or sell unless they bear a mark tied to a global power. And unlike earlier interpretations that seemed symbolic, the technological groundwork is now disturbingly literal. Biometrics, facial recognition, artificial intelligence, and digital wallets–all can be linked in a way that makes such a system not only possible, but desirable to those hungry for control.

Concluding Scripture

To the faithful in Christ, He says: “Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches” (Revelation 3:10-13).

GLOBAL UNREST

Apostasy and Doctrines of Demons

‘Side B’: another insidious attack on authority of scripture; likely coming to a church near you. Instead of fully embracing LGBTQ lifestyles (as “Side A” does), “Side B” proponents acknowledge homosexual acts are sinful but claim the identity is not. Nonsense! How can a Christian identify themself by a temptation the Lord hates and that their regenerate hearts should equally hate?

Hungarian Prime Minister exposes EU’s destructive agenda. Prime Minister Orban makes it clear: the purpose of the leftist-inspired mass importation of Muslims is to make sure all European Christian traditions are permanently destroyed. “First come the migrants, then the papers, then the votes.”

Chinese Christian media ordered to include more communist propaganda. China’s only legal church, the Communist Party-controlled Three-Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM), has been ordered to publish more communist propaganda in its “Christian” media.

Hatred of Israel and Jews

Terror attack in Samaria: Israeli woman murdered on her way to delivery room. Terrorists ambushed the vehicle in which she was in and opened fire at her, critically wounding her. She was later pronounced dead at the hospital.

‘Disgusting’: In Rhode Island, the State Capital to Fly Palestinian Flag Over City Hall. In an utterly shameful move, Providence, Rhode Island, plans to raise a Palestinian flag over City Hall on May 16 — a decision that spits in the face of American values and Christian principles.

Germany: Police Officers Injured in Violent Clashes at Anti-Israel Nakba Day Rally in Berlin.
More than 600 police officers were dispatched to contain the “Nakba Day” protest in Berlin’s central Kreuzberg district, where over 50 arrests were made.

Netherlands: Christians kick anti-Israel protesters out of Dutch coastal town. Anti-Israel protesters who demonstrated outside a Christian-Zionist celebration on Wednesday were chased away by locals who made the protesters “run for their lives.” The event was an Independence Day celebration by Christians for Israel that drew hundreds of Israel’s supporters.

Hatred of Christianity

The Church will not see the events of the Tribulation, but we can see its shadows. That doesn’t mean we won’t have trouble. We will. Jesus told us we would (John 16:33). But persecution from others and the normal trauma of living in a fallen world are different from God’s wrath poured out for our sins. We won’t experience the latter because His wrath for our sins was poured out long ago — on Jesus at the cross. He received what we deserved.

Pervasive Perversion

Good: Texas passes bill to close loophole that allows sexually graphic material in schools. Texas Lawmakers voted to remove an ‘affirmative defense’ loophole that shielded schools from prosecution for exposing students to sexually perverse content.

Depopulation Agenda

Assisted Suicide: New York Takes Dangerous Step Toward Normalizing Death as a Commodity.
At this rate, New York is on track to become the 11th state to legalize assisted suicide. This law permits terminally ill patients to end their lives with a physician’s help. The intentionally softer label of “assisted dying” is a grave moral failing. It frames death as a solution to pain or inconvenience. It echoes the chilling “logic” behind abortion.

Last Days Youth

New College Grads Not Working Out, Most Hiring Managers Say: A Pollfish survey of 1,000 managers across America revealed reasons that 8 in 10 managers said newly hired college graduates didn’t work out during their first year on the job. Excessive use of cell phones ranked as the top of managers’ complaints at 78%. 61% of managers found new hires were entitled or easily offended, while 57% noted these new employees were unprepared for the workplace. Lack of a work ethic scored 54%, followed by poor communication skills at 48%, and lack of technical skills at 27%.

Plague, Pestilence, and Plandemics

First blood test for Alzheimer’s diagnosis cleared by FDA. The new technology works by detecting amyloid plaques in the brain, a telltale sign of Alzheimer’s. While PET scans can pick up these plaques, they can be “costly and time-consuming” while exposing patients to radiation.

Economic and Food Insecurity

World Heading Toward Economic Captivity; Thru A Biblical Lens, It’s No Small Development. Two months ago, the US Senate Banking Committee introduced what may prove to be a historic and ominous piece of legislation: the GENIUS Act. Framed as a long-overdue measure to establish a legal framework for stablecoins, this bill was, in fact, far more significant. It would have marked America’s first real step toward a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).

Weather Events

Deadly tornado outbreak leaves at least 21 dead across Kentucky and Missouri. A tornado outbreak swept across the Ohio Valley Friday night, leaving at least 21 dead and rescue crews frantically searching neighborhoods left in ruins for any other survivors. And more severe weather, including tornadoes, is forecast in the coming days.

Wisconsin: Tornadoes struck parts of Midwest May 15, causing widespread damage. The city of Mayville declared a State of Emergency after severe damage was reported in its southern areas, where multiple buildings and homes were either damaged or destroyed.

Spain: Severe hailstorm damages 12,360 ha (30,550 acres) of crops in Valencia and Castellón, Spain, with estimated losses of €7.6 million. Vineyards, almonds, olives, and citrus crops were heavily affected, particularly in the Utiel-Requena region.

Wars and Rumors of Wars

US & Qatar raise pressure to reach hostage deal before Israel starts large-scale Gaza offensive, which could come as soon as President Trump wraps up his trip to the Gulf.

Israel escalates airstrikes in Gaza: Large-scale offensive seems imminent with ceasefire negotiations stuck. Israel conducted massive waves of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip overnight Friday into Saturday, with Hamas-affiliated sources reporting up to 100 people killed since Thursday. Israeli Defense Forces appear to be preparing the ground for Operation Gideon’s Chariots due to stalled ceasefire negotiations with the Hamas terrorist organization.

15 Israeli jets drop 35 bombs on Houthi targets: New details on airstrike in Yemen. The goal was to damage the Houthis’ main income source and, in effect, impose a naval blockade on the terror organization. Now, vessels up to 80 meters in length won’t be able to dock at the targeted ports — a move that will hinder the Houthis’ ability to receive supplies.

Calls for Peace and Safety

Where Do Trump’s Loyalties Lie During His Middle East Excursion? Rumors have been swirling as to whether President Trump has abandoned Israel for the Gulf states. But whatever is done by the president of the US or any other country can’t impact the future plan God has for Israel. Millennia have passed, and empires have come and gone, but Israel remains. Why? Because that is what God promised, and His word is irrevocable.

Syria-Israel contacts said to intensify in wake of Trump-Sharaa meeting & lifting of US sanctions. Israeli and Syrian representatives have reportedly held talks in recent days to ease tensions and explore the possibility of Syria joining the Abraham Accords. An Israeli delegation met with Syrian and Turkish representatives in Azerbaijan in recent days, with Emirati officials serving as mediators.

Out of chaos—a new world order? Speaking from Saudi Arabia, President Trump said, “Before our eyes, a new generation of leaders is transcending the ancient conflicts and tired divisions of the past and forging a future where the Middle East is defined by commerce, not chaos; where it exports technology, not terrorism; and where people of different nations, religions, and creeds are building cities together, not bombing each other.” [There won’t be peace between nations until Jesus comes back to Earth to establish His millennial reign.]

Is President Trump About to Pull Off the Deal of the Century? According to President Trump, the Iranians have “sort of agreed to” the terms of a potential deal…. “If President Trump can get the Iranians to agree to a deal that will permanently prevent them from producing nuclear weapons, it really will be the deal of the century.

With Trump Touring Gulf, Iran Offers Huge Nuclear Concession. In a major breaking report, NBC says “Iran is ready to sign a nuclear deal with certain conditions with President Trump in exchange for lifting economic sanctions.

The Much-Hyped “Peace Talks” Between Russia and Ukraine Are a Total Disaster So Far. There was so much hype about the “peace talks” that were supposed to happen between Russia and Ukraine in Turkey on Thursday. These were to be the first face-to-face negotiations between the two sides in three years. But Putin decided not to show up, and he didn’t send Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov either. Instead, he sent a “second-tier delegation” to negotiate with the Ukrainians…”

Trump urges Syrian President Sharaa to join Abraham Accords, deport Palestinian terrorists, in historic meeting. President Trump met with Syria’s President on Wednesday, the first time a U.S. President met with a Syrian president in 25 years. While Israel has signaled its opposition to granting legitimacy to Syria’s new government, Trump pointedly called Sharaa to make peace with Israel and to deport ‘Palestinian’ terrorists from his country.

The World’s Longing for Peace and Safety Will Play Right Into the Hands of the Antichrist. It seems nearly everywhere you turn, people are talking about peace. On every continent and in nearly every country, leaders are holding out hope that somebody will be able to advance the cause of peace throughout the world. The Antichrist will convince the world that only he can provide the lasting peace and security that has long been desired.

Concluding Scripture

“Be careful [anxious] for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7).

“Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” (Romans 5:1-5).

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead [to your old self], and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory” (Colossians 3:1-4).
