BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH

Apostasy and Doctrines of Demons

Mardi Gras Draws Ire of Christians in Australia After Open Mockery of Jesus. Sydney was once again the host city for a Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, which ran from February 14 to March 2. The theme for this year’s festival was “Free to Be.” After witnessing one such moment, where a drag performer was pointing a spear at a person dressed as Jesus Christ, it is clear that some participants wanted to exercise their freedom to be blasphemous!

The Church of AI And the Techno-Utopian Gospel. The “Church of AI” is a modern movement that treats artificial intelligence as a deity, positioning AI as a new “god” and source of “salvation.” Its website (church-of-ai.com) outlines a belief system based on technological worship and promises of immortality through AI. The “Church of AI” stands as a clear antithesis to biblical Christianity. Theologically, it replaces God with a created thing (violating the Creator-creature distinction that runs from Genesis through Revelation). Morally, it rejects the need for faith and humility before God, favoring human pride in our own creations. And eschatologically, it aligns with the Bible’s depiction of end-times deception: a strong delusion drawing people into worshiping a false god and seeking salvation apart from Jesus.

Islamic Terrorism

Syrian Christians ‘hid under furniture’ to escape slaughter in Syria. Abu Ali, an Evangelical Christian from Jerusalem, compared the current situation of Syria’s Christians to the terror Israeli residents faced on Oct. 7, 2023. “This is a reality they face every single day. Except, there are no heroic soldiers coming to defend them. They’re on their own,” Abu Ali said.

Pervasive Perversion

Agriculture Secretary Cancels $600K Grant To Study ‘Menstrual Cycles In Trans Men.’ The United States Department of Agriculture announced they’ve canceled a grant worth $600,000 for the study of menstrual cycles in transgender men.

The Abortion Abomination

Planned Parenthood Kills 18-Year-Old Girl in Botched Abortion. Lexi experienced an amniotic fluid embolism (AFE), a life-threatening complication with a high death rate, especially in 2nd and 3rd trimester abortions. Amniotic fluid enters the mother’s bloodstream, which can lead to an array of serious and sudden reactions, including cardiac arrest and widespread bleeding.“ This young woman was nearly six months along in her pregnancy.” The later in pregnancy a woman has an abortion, the higher the risk. Did anyone tell Lexi about that risk before she chose to undergo a procedure that ultimately cost her life, along with the life of her child?”

Iniquity Shall Abound

Killing site in Jalisco, Mexico just the latest in a long series of gruesome discoveries. Prosecutors in western Mexico confirmed the discovery of hundreds of clothing items and bone fragments by a group searching for relatives at a previously known cartel training site. The gruesome discovery in Jalisco was hardly the first. Mexico’s official registry counts over 120,000 disappeared people. The discovery of such places has accelerated in the past 15 years as more relatives do the work the government often won’t to search for missing loved ones.

Last Days Traitors

In Portland, Oregon: Shots fired into Tesla dealership in string of attacks on company since Musk began advising Trump. For the second time this week gunshots were fired into an Oregon Tesla dealership amid ongoing protests and vandalism against the company.

Plague, Pestilence, and Plandemics

Iranian darknet site caught supplying deadly fentanyl to Americans. Iran found a new way to harm Americans. For 3 years, Nemesis operated on the dark web, accessible only to those with specialized browsers designed to mask identity/location. With 1,000 vendors selling narcotics, counterfeit ID documents, and hacking services, the site processed nearly $30 million in sales.

Weather Events

Monster storm across the US sparks threat of tornadoes and fire, killing at least 17. Violent tornadoes that ripped through parts of the U.S. proved deadly as well as destructive as whipping winds moved east into the Mississippi Valley and Deep South on Saturday, with at least 17 people killed and scores of homes decimated. The most fatalities as of Saturday morning were in Missouri (11). On Friday, three people were killed in car crashes during a dust storm in Amarillo, Texas. The deaths come as a massive storm system moving across the country unleashed winds that triggered deadly dust storms and fanned over 100 wildfires.

Wars and Rumors of Wars

‘Evil Empire Summit’ Set for Friday in Beijing: Chinese, Russian, Iranian leaders gathering to defy Trump, sharpen anti-US alliance. On March 14, senior officials of the three most dangerous nations on the planet – Communist China, Russia, and Iran – huddled in Beijing. Why? To defy U.S. President Trump, to strengthen and sharpen their anti-U.S. and anti-Western alliance. Also see ‘It could go very dark, very fast,’ Joel Rosenberg says in drastic warning about Iran, China & Russia.

Putin Issues US List of Demands to Achieve 30-Day Ceasefire. While the Russian leader said he is ‘for’ achieving a 30-day ceasefire, he has raised serious questions about what stipulations must be added. “We also want guarantees that during the 30-day ceasefire, Ukraine will not conduct mobilization, will not train soldiers, and will not receive weapons,” Putin said.

We can definitely see the foreshadowing of the fulfillment of Isaiah 17.

Tulsi Gabbard’s warning to Senate on Syria proves prophetic as Al Qaeda-linked regime slaughters minorities. The Director of National Intelligence’s warning of a terrorist takeover in Syria looks to be coming true amid reports that al Qaeda-linked terror forces aligned with Syria’s interim new president—a former al Qaeda terrorist—are being accused of massacring Alawites as well as members of the country’s dwindling Christian community. Alawhite is an Islamic sect that split with Shia Islam. Also see Jihadists In Syria Massacre Over 1000 Alawite & Christian Men, Women & Children.

After violence in Syria, Israel says it’s prepared to defend Syria’s Druze. Israel has a small Druze community, and there are also Druze living in Israel’s Golan Heights, which Israel captured from Syria in the 1967 Six-Day War. The Druze are Arabs who practice an offshoot of Islam. PM Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz instructed the military to be ready to defend a Druze town in the suburbs of Damascus from Syrian government forces. Also see Israel sends humanitarian aid packages to Druze community in southern Syria.

Israel strikes Hamas & PIJ targets in Syria in drastic warning to leader al-Sharaa. Israel struck a Hamas terror cell in southern Syria and a command center of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terror group in Damascus this week. The cell was planning to carry out terror attacks in the Israeli Golan Heights. Israel delivered 10,000 aid packages to the Druze community in southern Syria. Following the fall of the Assad regime and takeover of the government by the Islamist terror group Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), Israeli PM Netanyahu affirmed Israel’s intent to maintain all of southern Syria as a demilitarized zone.

Conclusion

Wall Street Finally Admits DOGE’s Work To “Detox” Government Is Critical, But Will Be Brutally Painful. “The global handoff from big government to the free market may prove slippery, but it seems necessary given large deficits and bloated debt burdens.” In other words, brace for lots of pain as Trump tries to fix years and decades of uniparty graft and corruption. And not just in the US: the handoff is global: the public-to-private shift is happening everywhere.

Things are worse than we thought. Although Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was referring to the U.S. when lamenting “things are worse than she thought,” it could apply to almost any area in the world at this point. The world is in a sad state of affairs, reeling from the spontaneous combustion of hatred, bloodthirstiness, deep turmoil, lawlessness, and utter chaos. Even the most talented negotiators cannot change the evil hearts of those who are committed to bring down the pillars of the world’s house, whether or not it means their own end, because life, to them, is just a convenient vehicle to destruction.  If they cannot achieve their goals, they will make sure that no one else can either.

But we students of Bible prophecy know what to expect.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES

Apostasy and Doctrines of Demons

Cardinal Dolan likens Ash Wednesday to ‘Catholic Ramadan.’ He again praised the Islamic season of Ramadan and equated Catholic practices with Muslim ones, calling on Catholics to ‘unite’ with Muslims in prayer and fasting. We shouldn’t be surprised. After all, Pope Francis encourages all religions to unite, and the Catholic catechism’s paragraph 841 makes the false claim that Muslims worship the same God.

Mother Earth “Gaia” god worship: Take a “trip” to fight climate change? Group touts psychedelic solutions. One group is pitching the notion that tripping on magic mushrooms or other hallucinogens might inspire “consciousness shifts” in the populace – encourage more appreciation of nature and a deeper personal connection to the world. “Psychedelics teach we’re all one and that we’re all family on this planet, and we need to collectively protect our home,” said Marissa Feinberg, PYSCA’s founder.

Islamic Grooming Gangs in India: Hindu Minor Kidnapped, Gang-Raped and Tortured for Months; Muslims Paid to Trap and Convert Girls. In a horrifying case that mirrors the brutality of Islamic grooming gangs in the UK, a 14-year-old Hindu Dalit girl from Uttar Pradesh was allegedly abducted, gang-raped, and tortured for two months by four Muslim men as part of a more extensive jihadist operation to convert Hindu girls to Islam.

Hatred of Christianity

Over 60 persecuted Christians arrested in Bangkok, Thailand. Thai authorities arrested the Montagnard (Vietnamese) Christian migrants who faced persecution in Vietnam. Individuals without funds to cover fines faced an 8-day jail term, followed by transfer to an immigration detention facility. The center is known for overcrowded cells, where men, women, and children may remain for months or years.

Hatred of Jews and Israel

Rooting Out Corruption: How USAID Worked to Destabilize Israel and Fund Terrorism Against Jews. While you may have been struggling to afford a house, pay rent, and buy gas and groceries, your tax dollars were being used to fund terrorism in Israel. Let that sink in. USAID gifted $310 million for a cement factory project in Gaza. What do you think SANAD, the private company that was supposed to create cement mills, did with the money? They built terror tunnels.

Jewish Journalist Sloan Rachmuth Arrested for Objecting to Islamic Terror Symbol in U.S. Grocery Store. Dragged from her home in handcuffs, paraded past her neighbors, and thrown in jail on a bogus charge, she was politically targeted, humiliated, and silenced for daring to object to a U.S. grocery store employee wearing an Islamic terror symbol—exposing a shocking case of corporate complicity, police overreach, and state-enforced antisemitism.

Terror Attack in Haifa, Israel. A terror attack on March 3 carried out in Haifa’s bus terminal left a 70-year-old man dead and four others wounded.

Pervasive Perversion

Senate Democrats block bill that would have barred males from competing in female sports. Senate Bill 9, also known as Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, received a vote of 51-45 on Monday evening on whether to invoke cloture on the motion to proceed with the bill. It needed at least 60 votes to get cloture. Sen. Tuberville (R-Ala) said, “We have women’s teams in some states that are all boys … no opportunities for girls or women to participate on the team. Young women have been forced to compete against men and even share locker rooms and shower time. And on top of that, your taxpayer dollars are paying for it.” “Since the beginning of time, people have agreed that sex is assigned at birth and determined by God,” he continued. “But under the Biden administration, you had people claiming that men can get pregnant.”

Plague, Pestilence, and Plandemics

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth Does Not Rule Out Strikes on Fentanyl Labs in Mexico he said in a recent interview with Fox News’s Laura Ingraham.

Weather Events

Officials Continue Battling Wildfires in North and South Carolina. The National Weather Service issued “increased fire danger” alerts on March 4 as firefighter crews continued to battle over 170 wildfires across both states since last weekend. The fires have prompted evacuations in certain areas and a state of emergency declaration. The largest fire stretched across over 2,000 acres in Horry County, S.C.

Japan hit by largest wildfire in over 30 years. A massive forest fire has burned approximately 1,400 ha (3,460 acres) in Akasaki Town, Ofunato City, Iwate Prefecture, since it broke out on Feb. 26.

Argentina floods kill at least 10 in Bahia Blanca port city. Over 260 millimeters (10 inches) of rain fell within a few hours, destroying bridges and causing asphalt roads to collapse, the city said, adding that more fatalities could not be ruled out.

Wars and Rumors of Wars

Trump: Something’s going to happen with Iran very soon. “We have a situation with Iran that something’s going to happen very soon, very, very soon. You’ll be talking about that pretty soon, I guess,” Trump told reporters. The comments came after Trump revealed that he sent a letter to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, demanding that they negotiate.

Russia Agrees to Work with Trump on Iranian Nuclear Talks.

Trump Pauses All Military Aid to Ukraine. The pause will be in effect until the U.S. can determine that Ukraine’s leaders demonstrate a good-faith commitment to peace — which has not been evident as of late. “This is not permanent termination of aid, it’s a pause,” Fox News quoted a Trump administration official as saying.

Prophetic Turning Point? Trump-Zelensky Clash Ignites Calls for EU Army. For those who study Bible prophecy, recent world events have raised eyebrows. The fallout between President Trump and Ukraine President Zelensky has sparked renewed calls for Europe to establish its own army independent of the US. Could this pave the way for the prophesied leader (aka Antichrist) who will unite Europe under a single banner? The idea of a European military force is not new. French President Emmanuel Macron declared in 2018 that Europe couldn’t be protected without “a true European army.” Despite these calls, progress has been slow—until now.

Israel Threatens Military Intervention in Damascus as Internal Fighting Engulfs Suburb. Israel’s Foreign Minister Sa’ar made some interesting new comments on the Syria situation, at a moment the Israeli military (IDF) is occupying whole swathes of the country’s south in the wake of the December 8th ouster of Assad. Sa’ar described Syria’s new government, led by self-declared president Ahmed al-Sharaa (Jolani) as “a bunch of jihadists” who were “not elected… by the Syrian people.”

Syria’s Terror Government Attacks Local (Druze) Muslims Near the Golan. Will The IDF Step In? The Druze faith has its roots in Islam; however, most Druze don’t identify as Muslims. Israel’s commitment to the Druze community of Syria appears to be rock solid as videos have surfaced showing Israel shipping humanitarian supplies to both places. Israel has also offered work permits for the Druze in both areas to enter Israel to help with construction and farms.

New Iran-Backed Group Emerges in Syria to Confront Israel. An armed organization calling itself the “Islamic Resistance Front in Syria” has demanded that Israeli forces withdraw from southern Syria and the demilitarized zone in the Golan Heights, claiming responsibility for several recent attacks against the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). The Iran-backed group, formerly known as the “Southern Liberation Front,” has emerged as a new force to oppose Israel.

Israel enters tense Ramadan month as 90,000 Muslims hold first Friday prayer on Temple Mount.
The Muslim holy month of Ramadan has typically been a period of increased security challenges and terrorism for the Israeli authorities, particularly during a time of war. Several days after the start of Ramadan this year, tensions rose to a first peak with this week’s Friday prayers in the Al Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.

Two-State Delusion

Two-State Solution: Woe Unto A World That Pushes Israel Toward Destruction. The Global Times reported on China’s call for all parties to accelerate the two-state solution and support establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on 1967 borders. The Chinese Foreign Minister is ignoring the reality that there never was a long-lost land called Palestine that had its own unique culture, people, language, and government. That falsehood was perpetrated by Yasser Arafat.

Also, Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau, French President Emanuel Macron, the former Biden Administration, and many other world leaders also hold the same agenda, insisting that if Israel went back to pre-1967 borders, there would be peace and the October 7th massacre by Hamas would never have happened. Needless to say, the so-called Palestinians had pre-1967 borders from 1948 to 1967, and yet they still formed the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), of which Yasser Arafat became chairman.
