As I incessantly remind readers, stage-setting for prophetic fulfillment continues at a blistering pace. This includes the minutest details God’s Word provides to give believers a heads-up on where the world stands on God’s prophetic timeline.

One such detail covered here fairly recently is the matter of the powers that be commanding that we stop eating meat. Further details of the Ephesians 6:12 cabal ratcheting up this demand have emerged to the surface of the intended Great Reset dictatorship the likes of Klaus Schwab and the “powers and principalities” have planned for the rest of us.

It is all part, of course, of Schwab’s statement involving the proposed Great Reset: “You will own nothing and love it.” —Something like that…

Paul the apostle was given the prophecy to pass along. His words now intrude into the daily headlines thanks to the global cabal that intends to rule a New World Order.

Here is the prophecy I believe indicates exactly where we stand:

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer” (1 Timothy 4:1-5).

Specifically, a recent news item I believe involves this prophecy spoke to me as a profound indicator of the lateness of this hour leading to the Tribulation era. I apologize for its length, but it adequately explains elements involved in bringing us to this point in the growing demand to abstain from eating meat.

A new £38m UK-wide centre is set to research alternatives to animal proteins, particularly from plants, fungi, algae and meat grown in labs.

The National Alternative Protein Innovation Centre (“NAPIC”) has a mission to develop “acceptable and planet-friendly alternatives to animal proteins.”

Funding has come from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (“BBSRC”) and Innovate UK, as well as three universities and the James Hutton Institute.

A statement by the organisations said supplementing traditional agriculture with alternative protein sources was “critical if we are to meet increasing demands sustainably.”

Alternative proteins are derived from sources other than animals and include terrestrial and aquatic plants, insects, proteins derived via biomass or precision fermentation and cultured meat…

Animal agriculture is estimated to produce up to a fifth of planet-warming emissions, and with the global population projected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, the demand for protein is expected to rise significantly.

Some sources, such as the UN Environment Programme, estimate meat consumption alone could grow up to 50 percent by 2050.

We need to find more sustainable sources of protein, and thankfully, there is a huge biodiversity in non-animal sources of protein, and we’ve barely scratched the surface of this…

[In this piece, the writer introduces alternative thoughts on the “no meat” diet.]

Fake meat, synthetic meat, test tube meat, franken meat, clean meat – call it what you will – is the trend to grow meat artificially in a laboratory, and has been attracting some impressive billionaire investment backing and media interest in recent times.

What has been interesting in this era of “fake news” and fact-checking is the number of media articles about fake meat that repeat claims by its commercial proponents that real meat is bad for just about everything, while lab-grown meat is without ethical or environmental baggage – with no apparent attempt to verify those claims.

Beyond the perception that lab-grown meat must be “better for the environment,” another fundamental premise put forward by its animal rights supporters is that it conveniently does away with the need for an animal to die in order to produce a meal.

Unlike traditional beef production, culturing animal cells in a petri dish causes no harm or pain to a sentient animal, they insist.

But what’s not yet being discussed in any of the “gee-whiz” publicity about lab-grown meat is the back story behind the medium needed to produce it.

According to a prominent Australian animal scientist spoken to by Beef Central, multiplying animal cells to create a form of meat protein in a lab requires the use of a medium based on foetal blood plasma.

Foetal blood is produced by slaughtering a pregnant cow, removing its unborn calf from its uterus, and harvesting the blood from it. While a synthetic alternative to foetal blood does exist, it is apparently prohibitively expensive to produce, the meat scientist said.

So much for “mortality-free” lab-grown meat production. (“Research Centre Launched in the UK to Push Fake Meat and Develop a National Protein Strategy,” by Rhoda Wilson, The Exposé, September 3, 2024)

So it is plain that the globalists’ would-be rulers, such as those within the WEF and The Summit of the Future (scheduled to meet a few days from now to work to implement their Pact for the Future), will forbid the eating of meat.

Most of these want to reduce populations of the earth in order to make life on the planet more “sustainable,” as we’ve all heard Prince Charles (now King Charles) of Great Britain lecture about for years. In that regard, they are proposing, through the LGBTQ model and abortion/infanticide route, the reduction of marriage unions that produce children. All of this, of course, in the cause of helping with global warming/climate change—the Mother Earth worship religion they have created that Antichrist’s False Prophet will no doubt have something to say about once the Church is called into Glory by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Here, again, is how to go to Christ and avoid the coming terrors of the Tribulation.

“That if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and will believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9-10).

While we approach the 2024 presidential election, we’re once again subjected to the evil festering within the mainstream media at every level. Whether it’s general or entertainment news, all, in one way or another, is geared to pump up the party and candidates of their preference and not only diminish but destroy all opposition to their view of the way America and the world should be governed. And that way has become radicalized and perverted.

The power of the mainstream media to shape opinion, thus pervert society and culture, is used by the dark force the Apostle Paul called “powers and principalities in high places” (Ephesians 6:12).

As I’ve mentioned before, something exciting is building toward a profound event, I believe. God Himself intervened, reached down, and, in front of the entire world, prevented the assassination of one of the candidates. This isn’t mere coincidence. Something is up. As a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, it’s exciting to contemplate what that something might be. Jesus told us to “look up and lift our heads” when we “see all these things begin to come to pass.”

Things haven’t changed for the better in the matter of the media’s harmful influence but have gotten progressively worse since the time leading up to the 2020 presidential election. The article that follows was written in 2019, and I present it again here as a reminder of the evil the nation faces while the November date of electing the next president nears.

Many an elderly former television network broadcaster doubtless engages in ever-recurring conversations while sipping his favorite evening libation.

“Remember how we once ruled the airwaves?” might be one such conversation starter.

“Yeah. In the old days we could say it on the evening news, and by noon the next day, public opinion would begin to come around,” the commiserating drinking partner might say.

I can imagine a Dan Rather-type and some other no-longer-relevant propagandist lamenting as the tonic and gin or bourbon on the rocks burns a liquid trail down their once-golden throats.

“Those were the good old days,” one says as he shakes his head, blinks, and calls to the bartender for a refill.

“There’s no leadership to ever bring those days back,” I can hear the other saying. “Now they all go their separate ways.… There are far too many of them to ever come together.”

“It almost makes you see the need for the power of dictatorship…for the good of the republic,” the Dan Rather-type says, taking the first sip from his newly refreshed beverage.

“Yeah. We used to at least have that kind of influence over public opinion…for the good of the republic,” the other aging broadcaster puts in.

They must dream happily of when they and their network colleagues had the three-network monopoly. Now, it must be a nightmare that they live through daily. Their personal influence is no more—the power of their profession significantly diminished.

That this is the case is plainly presented in polls taken about how America’s people feel about that profession. Always, news media, as being trustworthy in the eyes of the public, ranks very near the bottom of those polls.

If there ever was a question about why that ranking is so low, we need only to think on the past three years or so.

It would almost seem that our two aging former anchors need not worry for a second about the ability of the news conglomerate to speak with the power of one. The mainstream news media has coalesced in a way that ABC, CBS, and NBC would have never done when they had, collectively, nearly sole power of the air.

It is true that today’s now fractionalized mainstream news media, as individual news forums, draw infinitesimally small numbers of viewers in comparison to the numbers drawn by the big three networks during the good old days. But the power exerted by the new collective—the fractionalized mainstream media—is, I’m convinced, even more powerful than that wielded by the big three those years earlier.

The proof is the absolutely fanatical cohesion that this new media collective has cemented.

Before the months leading up to Donald J. Trump’s election to the presidency, the news conglomerate at least pretended to be independent from one another. Following Trump becoming the Republican candidate and up to the present hour, those news forums have melded as one to destroy this president.

They have, in the process, infected about half of the adults of America with an insane rage that I’ve characterized a number of times as “a reprobate mind”—the same mindset described by the Apostle Paul in Romans 1:28.

In this sense, the new mainstream news media is far more effective than the big three that pretended to be independent of each other in trying to shape public opinion. This media today is as driven in its insane rage as are the left-wing, anti-God public they possess. And “possession” is what it amounts to, in my estimation.

I can say this because at the black heart of this propagandist cabal is the chief minion of the underworld. And this is provable, biblically.

Broadcast—at least as originally conceived and implemented—projected out over the airwaves. They were received by the antennae of those who tuned in to the news, entertainment programs, and commercials. So, as the broadcast industry was foundational, that method—“over the air”—was the progenitor of this new mainstream media.

This evil cabal, although fractionalized as being individual entities, is totally conjoined in delivering messages their master director wants delivered.

That director is indeed the maestro—who, for the time being, is allowed to be the infernal minister of propaganda to seduce and delude the rebellious among earth’s inhabitants. He is undertaking that goal with a massive effort.

Here is scriptural proof of his temporary right to his position as master of deluding all who will watch and listen:

Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience” (Ephesians 2:2).

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).

Satan is the prince of the power of the air. He is using that power in a literal way to seek out and devour as many as he can delude. He has, during this last three and a half years, managed to seduce and bring into his insane rage nearly half of the adult population of the United States of America, it appears.

But the God of Heaven has not left us without defense against this evil prince and his media minions. God’s Word tells of this protection for the Christian—all who believe in Jesus Christ for salvation:

“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4).

While carrying out the Great Commission Jesus gave believers, we are, as Paul exhorted, to be “looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ” (Titus 2:13).

Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
