How Shall We Live IN TIMES LIKE THESE

In this election year, Ed Potter expresses concern over the motives of Christian voters this election cycle. His real concern is that no one else seems concerned about the issue. It's not about who's elected this time around. What is more troubling is the attitude of supposed Christians to the challenges of our present day. If that trend continues, and all indications are that it will, the Antichrist's path to power is already being paved.

Maybe you've heard of debanking, but has it ever happened to you? If you think it only applies to persons accused of fraud, ordered by justice officials in criminal proceedings, I can tell you that's not the case. I know.  I was debanked for over 6 months simply because my bank would not accept the current address I've lived at for 10 years.

The Bible foretells there is coming a time when every person will have to make a decision: agree with the authorities or be debanked. Technology makes debanking easier than ever, and the time may be much closer than we think.

Prominent figures in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam agree on one thing: the war in Iran is a sign that the end of the age is at hand. Each religion has its own view on what that will look like and on how soon it will happen. With each religion looking for and awaiting its own "messiah", I think we're a long way from seeing the end of the conflict in and with Iran.

The world has always been full of conflicting voices, but especially so now in our digitally connected world. Which advice will we follow?

Despite the emphasis on better health and living longer, America (and the world as a whole) is beset with a fatal, incurable disease.

An idol is not only a graven image, and Americans have many idols, but we have chosen a new god to serve and worship.

Sempre que começo a publicar um podcast sobre IA, quando penso que está pronto, tenho e começar de novo.  A Inteligência Artificial está avançando tão rapidamente que o que preparei já está desatualizado. Se há algo que deve levar para casa deste episódio é isto: não estamos preparados para o que está à nossa espera. Mais e mais as pessoas estão a deixar que IA faça o trabalho de pensar, e estou certo de que tornarei a falar sobre este assunto. Por aquilo que eu entendo da Bíblia sobre o que está para vir, creio que a IA seja a ferramenta que vai possibilitar a realização das piores profecias. Por enquanto só estamos a vislumbrar as possibilidades do que está sendo planeado para–IA. Mark Zuckerberg da Meta mesmo disse isso, então deve ser verdade. A verdade final, porém, é o que diz a Bíblia.

I've started to write about AI several times, but AI is developing so fast, that by the time I think I've finished the story, I realize it's not up to date. If there's anything you can take away from this episode, it's that I don't believe we are prepared for what's coming. More and more people are letting AI do their thinking for them, and I'm sure this is not the last word I'll say on this matter. From my understanding of what the Bible says is coming on the world, I believe AI is the tool that will make the worst prophecies come true. We are only getting a glimpse of what is planned for AI to do. Mark Zuckerberg of Meta said so himself, so it must be true. Truer still is what the Bible says.

Dificilmente há um noticiário que não inclua alguma história relacionada à imigração e a imigrantes. É uma questão polémica que me perturba pessoalmente cada vez que ouço uma notícia, porque eu próprio fui imigrante durante 44 anos, mais de metade da minha vida,  como tal, conheço bem esse lado da questão. Mas também fui Agente Consular dos EUA por mais de 12 anos, tempo suficiente para conhecer bem o outro lado dessa "fronteira". Cada imigrante tem uma história, eu sei, mas estas são as minhas histórias. 

E depois há o muro em volta do reino dos céus na fronteira com a eternidade e ninguém entra lá sem cumprir com todos os requisitos.

There is hardly a newscast that does not include some story related to immigration and immigrants. It’s a hot-button issue that upsets me personally every time I hear a news report, because I was an immigrant myself for 44 years, over half my life.  I know a lot about that side of the story. But I was also a US Consular Agent for over 12 years, and I know about immigration from the other side of that “fence”. Every immigrant has a story, I know, but these are my stories. 

Then there's the wall around the kingdom of heaven at the border with eternity, and no one gets through without meeting all the requirements.
