Apostasy and Doctrines of Demons

Spirit of Antichrist: Humanity Increasingly Looking for Answers, Hope, and Salvation From Sources Other Than The Creator. Most people think “antichrist” means someone who stands in direct opposition to Christ. While opposition is certainly involved, the Greek meaning carries another powerful implication: instead of Christ. Humanity is increasingly looking for answers, hope, security, wisdom, and salvation from sources other than the Creator. The spirit of antichrist is conditioning mankind to trust something—or someone—instead of God.

Godless Globalists and Nature Worshipers

UN Endorses ‘World Court’ Ruling Claiming All Governments Have a Legal Obligation to Fight ‘Climate Change.’ Reports about the death of “climate” alarmism have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, obeying United Nations “climate” decrees is now officially “international law.” At least that is what two key UN entities and more than 140 national governments would like humanity to believe.

Scientists Plan to Spray Chemicals Into Earth’s Magnetic Field to Shield Us from Solar Storms
A team of researchers has proposed an unprecedented strategy to protect Earth from powerful solar storms by actively reinforcing the planet’s magnetosphere, the natural shield that deflects dangerous solar particles. The approach, detailed in the journal Space Weather, suggests deploying spacecraft to release ionized chemicals into space, creating an artificial plasma barrier capable of mitigating the impact of geomagnetic storms.

Pervasive Perversion

Police Chief Says the DOJ Worked to Protect Epstein. Michael Rieter, the police chief (from 2001 to 2009) who oversaw Jeffrey Epstein’s Florida case (which began in 2005), recently said that both state and federal governments worked against him.

Wars and Rumors of Wars

Retired British Army Colonel warns civil war between Britons and immigrants now inevitable
There is very likely to be civil war in Britain, Col. (Ret.) Richard Kemp said earlier this year. “I’m not talking about the American Civil War,” he said. “I’m talking about something more like Northern Ireland but on a much more intensive scale, where you have the indigenous British and some of the immigrant population and the British government all on three different sides fighting against each other. And I’d be very surprised if that doesn’t happen.”

Erdoğan’s neo-Ottoman war on Israel. Washington cannot continue treating Erdoğan as an indispensable ally and harmless irritant. On June 10, 2026, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan told Justice and Development Party lawmakers that Israeli operations in Lebanon and Syria “also threaten Turkey.” He tied Ankara’s security to Beirut and Damascus and declared that Israel’s “aggression” endangers the world and “must be stopped.” This was not an isolated outburst.

Calls for Peace and Safety

Conclusion

 ^“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world [of the age]? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many” (Matthew 24:3-5).

“The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness” (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).

TENSION, TUMULT, AND TREACHERY

Iniquity Shall Abound

Escalating gang violence across Haiti has pushed displacement to record levels, deepening an already severe humanitarian crisis and leaving nearly 1.5 million people without a stable place to live, according to new figures released. Families across both urban and rural communities continue to flee attacks, often multiple times, with increasingly limited options for safety.

Plague, Pestilence, and Plandemics

Faith, fear and trust: Inside DR Congo’s fight against Ebola. In the Congo, health workers, who arrived to help bury a person who died from Ebola, were forced to leave. The family carried out the burial, potentially exposing dozens more to the virus. Some families attribute deaths to witchcraft or poisoning rather than infection. The outbreak, caused by the rare Bundibugyo strain, for which there is no vaccine or treatment, continues to spread in eastern DRC while cases have also been reported in Uganda.

Summer-like heat to brief cooldown as weekend severe storms target 50 million in Northeast. Major US cities along the Interstate 95 corridor, including Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Columbus, Ohio, and Baltimore, will be under some type of severe weather threat.

Tropical Storm Amanda has formed in the eastern Pacific Ocean. “There is a chance Amanda could strengthen into the season’s first hurricane, but the separate developing system near Central America and southwestern Mexico has a greater likelihood of becoming a hurricane and could even reach major hurricane strength if it remains over water long enough.”

Wars and Rumors of Wars

Lebanese president: Iran using Lebanon as ‘bargaining chip’ in negotiations with US. Lebanon’s President Aoun has repeatedly sought to distance Lebanon from regional conflicts and said decisions concerning Lebanon’s sovereignty and security must be made by the Lebanese state alone. “Our house is being destroyed. [Iran is] using Lebanon as a bargaining chip in their negotiations with the US. It is unacceptable,” he says.

In Same Day, House Votes to End Iran War, Keep Funding Ukraine War. The Republican base supports the war, but independents are souring as the conflict drags on — a warning sign for Republicans fighting to keep their seats in the midterms. A major factor in that shifting mood has been economic woes.

Zelenskyy issues open letter to Putin proposing meeting as US ‘fully focused’ on Iran. He said, “We see that the United States is fully focused on the issue of Iran, and it would be wrong to simply wait until the war in Europe returns to the center of its attention. Ukraine proposes ending this war through direct engagement between us — and you. I am proposing a meeting.”

Renewing Military Strikes Against Iran Is the Only Way to End Its Nuclear Ambitions. In the to and fro over US attempts to negotiate a peace deal with Iran, there can be no compromise that allows Iran to have nuclear weapons. The intransigence of Iranian leaders could ultimately persuade Trump that, in order to ensure Iran has no chance of resuming its nuclear and ballistic missile programme, he has no alternative but to resume military action against the regime.

Iran says US peace deal hinges on release of $24 billion in frozen assets, warns against renewed conflict. A senior adviser to Iran’s supreme leader has said negotiations between Tehran and Washington have reached a deadlock over $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets, warning that any return to war could trigger a broader regional conflict stretching beyond the Persian Gulf.

“Israel Watching Regional Military Shifts with Growing Concern.”  Read this week’s Nearing Midnight column on Rapture Ready, where Terry James discusses this interesting development and how it relates to the end-times Battle of Gog and Magog (Ezekiel 38—39) in “Turkey Strutting Its Prophesied Power.” Also relating to the Ezekiel prophecy is Daymond Duck’s article this week, “The US Is Turning Against Israel.” Bible prophecy tells us that Israel will be alone to defend itself in the Gog/Magog invasion. But we know how it ends when God steps in.
