Peter H. Diamandis, MD, is the Founder of XPRIZE, Singularity University, ZeroG, A360 and Dave Blundin is the founder & GP of Link Ventures. Both men are well known for the roles on Peter’s, Moonshots blog.
In this video Peter & Dave sit down with Brett Adcock to discuss the future of Figure AI and Humanoid Robots. Brett Adcock is the founder of Figure AI, an AI robotics company developing general-purpose humanoid robots.
Brett Adcock (born April 6, 1986) is an American technology entrepreneur and billionaire who is the founder and chief executive officer of Figure AI. In 2018, Adcock co-founded Archer Aviation, five years after he co-founded Vettery. In 2023, he established Cover. As of June 2024, Forbes estimated his net worth as US$1.4 billion.
In 2026, Figure AI will be working with companies to introduce robots in their companies to replace humans for manufacturing, and all other functions including warehousing and distribution. Figure has 55 companies knocking on the door ready to spend big bucks which will help them scale up their robots manufacture. However, he did say that with neural net his company can produce general-purpose humanoid robots and he is keen to produce them as is Elon Musk with Optimus Robots.
The disruption that robotics will cause to employment in 2026 will just increase the lawlessness we are already seeing in developed countries where for the most part, people, particularly the younger generation have accepted evolution and the Big Bang theory as the origin of life and the Cosmos. For them, God and His commandments are part of myths and legends. Their lives have no meaning or purpose. For Christians who know their Bibles and Biblical end times prophecy realise this is just part of what God has revealed to prepare us for the tribulation that precedes Jesus second coming to earth to usher in His Millennial Kingdom.

The New Testament consistently affirms and expands the Old Testament prophecies concerning Israel’s restoration, the Messiah’s literal reign on earth, and the participation of the glorified saints in that reign. These passages illuminate the “mystery” Paul refers to — Israel’s temporary blindness followed by national salvation when Christ returns (Romans 11). If you have not already read my earlier post “O.T. Prophecies of Israel’s Messiah ruling the Nations” then I suggest you do as this is the sequel.
Let’s look carefully at the key sections.
1. Jesus’ Teachings
“You who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” Matthew 19:28
➡️ Promise of Israel’s restoration and the Apostles’ role in governing it.
“You shall not see Me again till you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’” Matthew 23:37–39
➡️ Jesus declares Israel’s national repentance will accompany His return.
Matthew 24–25 (Olivet Discourse)
Jesus gives the disciples many of the end times signs that precede His second coming.
Describes the Tribulation and Great Tribulation that precedes the rapture of the Saints and the wrath of God poured out with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements and then His return in glory with the glorified Saints.
When He comes, He will separate the nations (25:31–34) and rule as King from His throne of glory.
“When the Son of Man comes in His glory… then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him.”Matthew 25:31-31
“The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David, and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever.” Luke 1:32–33 (Gabriel’s announcement to Mary)
➡️ Explicit connection to the Davidic Covenant and Israel’s national kingdom.
“Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled… then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.” Luke 21:24–28
➡️ Prophecy of Israel’s long dispersion and ultimate deliverance.
“I confer on you a kingdom, just as My Father conferred one on Me… you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
“Jesus extends participation in His Kingdom rule to the faithful.”Luke 22:29–30
“Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel? It is not for you to know the times… but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you.”Acts 1:6–8
➡️ Jesus does not correct their expectation of a restored kingdom to Israel — He only delays it until the Father’s appointed time.
2. The Apostolic Preaching (Acts)
“Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send Jesus Christ… whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets.” Acts 3:19–21
➡️ The “restoration of all things” = exactly the Old Testament vision of a renewed earth under Messiah’s rule.
James quotes Amos 9:11–12:
“After this I will return and will rebuild the tabernacle of David… so that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord.” Acts 15:14–18
➡️ God will restore Davidic rule through Jesus, bringing Gentiles to share in Israel’s blessings.
3. Paul’s Writings
Romans 11:11–29
Israel’s rejection is temporary.
Gentiles are grafted in during Israel’s blindness.
Israel will be saved when the Deliverer comes.
“And so, all Israel will be saved, as it is written: ‘The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.‘” Romans 11:26
Romans 8:18–23
“The creation itself will be delivered from the bondage of corruption…” Romans 8:21
➡️ The entire creation awaits the revelation of the glorified saints — this corresponds to the renewed creation in the Millennium.
“Do you not know that the saints will judge the world?” 1 Corinthians 6:2
➡️ Believers’ participation in Christ’s government over the nations.
“If we endure, we shall also reign with Him.” 2 Timothy 2:12
➡️ Shared authority with Christ in His Millennial Kingdom.
4. The Book of Revelation (The fullest vision)
“You have redeemed us… and have made us kings and priests to our God; and we shall reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:9–10
➡️ Saints (Jew and Gentile) reigning on the earth with Christ.
“The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever.” Revelation 11:15
➡️ Transition from human rule to the Messiah’s Kingdom.
“Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war…And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses… On his robe and on his thigh, he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.”Revelation 19:11–16
Christ returns to judge and wage war in righteousness, wearing many crowns. ➡️ His return inaugurates the Millennial Kingdom.
“They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.” The Millennial reign of Christ with His glorified saints.”Revelation 20:1–6
Revelation 21–22
Transition from the Millennium into the eternal state — New Heaven and New Earth.
Yet, even here, Jerusalem remains central as the dwelling of God with His people.

What does this mean in terms of Biblical history. It is interesting to see this comment in the Book of Daniel where we find many end times prophecies.
“But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”Daniel 12:4
For Daniel this revelation must have seemed strange as there was no internet, or AI, or cars and planes back in Daniel’s day. But for us it makes good sense. Never before has knowledge increased to the extent it is today with AI. Along with the many other end times signs we can know we are in the last days before the prophesied return of Jesus takes place. Are you ready for what is next on God’s calendar for planet Earth: Jesus Millennial Kingdom. To get prepared can I suggest you go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net where you will find all the information you will need.
Jonathan Cahn shares the conclusion of the amazing prophecy in Ezekiel 38 & 39, that may foretell the next colossal event and the big question – where is America in it? What is America’s role in end time prophecy, and the end times? Is it there or not?
These two verses from Ezekiel indicate God brings Muslim nations surrounding Israel against it in the latter days when Israel has been re-established as a nation and the Jews have been gathered for all the nations where they were scattered. Look at Scripture describes how God brings them against Israel and how God deals with them.
“You will come up against my people Israel, like a cloud covering the land. In the latter days I will bring you against my land, that the nations may know me, when through you, O Gog, I vindicate my holiness before their eyes.” Ezekiel 38:16
“With pestilence and bloodshed I will enter into judgment with him, and I will rain upon him and his hordes and the many peoples who are with him torrential rains and hailstones, fire and sulfur. So I will show my greatness and my holiness and make myself known in the eyes of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.” Ezekiel 28:22-23
A dramatic geological development is unfolding in southern Italy as reports suggest an 8-kilometer fracture opening beneath Pozzuoli, raising fears that Campi Flegrei may be physically linking with Mount Vesuvius. Scientists are closely monitoring seismic activity, ground deformation, and volcanic unrest in a region home to more than 3.5 million people. If confirmed, this evolving pathway could signal heightened volcanic risk, reshaping how experts understand interconnected magma systems and the potential for large-scale eruptions near one of Europe’s most densely populated volcanic zones.

“For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.” Matthew 24:7-8
Minnesota: many Americans, understandably shocked, look at the protests, the violence, and the loss of life and point to immediate causes. Some cite fraud and corruption in federally funded social programs, apparently tolerated by state officials. Others point to aggressive enforcement of immigration law that sparked deadly confrontations.
Minnesota is not an outlier; it is a case study of what happens when institutions that once fostered moral restraint abandon that role. The real cause is less obvious because it is far removed from the tragic events we see today in the headlines.
It can be traced back decades to what was called the long march through the institutions — a phrase coined in the late 1960s by Marxist student leader Rudi Dutschke. The phrase deliberately echoed Mao Zedong’s Long March, but Dutschke’s was not a military campaign. It was a cultural and ideological one, measured in decades rather than battles.
The strategy was to transform society not by overthrowing government outright, but by infiltrating its core institutions: universities, primary and secondary education, the media, the courts, and even churches. The objective was to shape what people were taught — what would be considered normal, respectable, and acceptable — so that political outcomes would eventually become inevitable.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) alluded to this reality recently before the British Parliament when he referenced a quote often attributed to Abraham Lincoln:
“The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.”
That insight helps explain why the classroom has been central to this long march. Obstacles to Marxist ideology had to be removed or marginalized. It was no accident that prayer and Bible reading were removed from public schools in 1962 and 1963. When God and His word are removed as moral restraints, lawlessness fills the vacuum — and that is the fertile ground in which Marxism takes root and gains power.
Over time, that march has moved beyond institutions and inevitably spilled into the streets. Confrontations like those we’ve seen in Minneapolis — whether involving George Floyd or Alex Pretti — are becoming routine. The rule of law depends on shared moral limits; when those limits erode, force alone cannot restore order.
In the last days, before Jesus returns to restore righteousness, he said that “lawlessness will be increased“
“And you will hear of wars and rumours of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet… and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:7-12

For centuries, Bible scholars have taught that Enoch and Elijah are the two witnesses in Revelation 11, largely on the basis that they both were taken to heaven by God and had not experienced death.. But what if this traditional interpretation is wrong? Hidden in Scripture are clues that point to a completely different answer—one that changes everything we thought we knew about end times prophecy. In this video, we examine the biblical evidence, uncover the Transfiguration connection, and reveal the shocking truth about who these mysterious witnesses really are.
📖 Key Topics Covered:
The two witnesses prophecy in Revelation 11
Why the Enoch and Elijah theory has major problems
The Transfiguration’s prophetic significance
Biblical proof of the witnesses’ true identity
What this means for believers today
The answer has been hiding in plain sight all along. Discover the truth that will transform your understanding of biblical prophecy.
In 1968, Stewart Brand declared: ‘We are as gods – and we might as well get good at it.’ Half a century later, that prophecy has come true.
We can rewrite genes, edit embryos, build artificial minds, extend life, and terraform worlds. The old miracles – omniscience, omnipresence, even resurrection – are becoming standard operating procedure. But the real question isn’t whether humanity can play god. It’s whether we can do it wisely.
In this book, the bestselling authors of Abundance and Bold return with a sweeping exploration of our species’ next great transformation. Blending hard science with vivid storytelling, Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler chart humanity’s ascent from scarcity to superabundance – and the psychological, ethical, and existential challenges that come with it.
Across breakthroughs in AI, robotics, genetics, longevity, and consciousness research, they reveal a paradox at the heart of progress: as our external power expands, our inner resilience must evolve to match. Abundance without meaning leads to collapse. Intelligence without wisdom leads to extinction. To thrive in a world of everything, everywhere, all the time, we must learn to wield our godlike powers with humility, creativity, and flow.
Equal parts warning and invitation, We Are As Gods is a map for flourishing in the exponential century. Because the future won’t be built by those who fear what’s coming, but by those who know how to turn chaos into creation.
Abundance is here. Are you ready?
This book “We Are As God’s” explains why Jesus will return shortly as the Bible prophecies. It says, “we can now rewrite genes, edit embryos, build artificial minds, extend life, and terraform worlds. The old miracles – omniscience, omnipresence, even resurrection – are becoming standard operating procedure. But the real question isn’t whether humanity can play god. It’s whether we can do it wisely.”

No wonder our nation is confused. This isn’t an abstract legal glitch. It’s a cultural earthquake and we’re all living in the aftershocks. When the law deletes biological reality, it reflects something deeper: a nation rejecting God and rejecting truth. Scripture is clear: God created humanity in His image; male and female. He designed our bodies with purpose, with complementarity, and with the ability to bring forth life. This isn’t a ‘Christian belief’; it’s a universal human and scientific reality. Only a male and a female can create life. No amount of surgery, hormones, or legal word-games can change that. But biological sex is inconvenient for a culture driven by desire instead of design. So, the modern world fights God’s created order – fighting nature itself. The result? A fruitless imitation of what God intended for life and flourishing. Two males cannot conceive a child. Two females cannot conceive a child. A ‘trans’ man cannot produce a sperm. A ‘trans’ woman cannot produce egg. Reality does not bend.
And yet the push continues. The Australian Law Reform Commission is now considering whether to loosen Australia’s ban on commercial surrogacy to make it easier for male couples to procure children. If a homosexual relationship cannot produce children, then surrogates must be made more accessible — even paid for. This is the commodification of human life, and it is grotesque. Australia is rewriting creation to satisfy the desires of adults – not the rights of children. And the root of this problem goes back further than many realise. In 2013, then-Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus inserted ‘gender identity’ into the Sex Discrimination Act. This was an Act originally designed for females but suddenly, any man who identified as a “woman” received the same protections. This legal fiction, that a male can be a “woman”, became a protected category. The idea that biological sex doesn’t matter took root, and that idea now shapes everything.
The Tickle v Giggle case cemented this new legal definition. A male who identifies as a “woman” sued a female-only app for excluding him…and won. The court ruled that Tickle was disadvantaged relative to other females on the grounds of his trans identity. So much for protecting women. In response to recent questioning by Senator Claire Chandler, Australia’s Sex Discrimination Commissioner, Dr Anna Cody, couldn’t even answer, “What is a biological male?” When our own Commissioner has no regard for biological realities, national sanity is broken. Because of this legal falsehood, women are losing every protected space: bathrooms, changing rooms, prisons, sporting clubs, shelters, school camps, accommodation. Everywhere. You see it now in every government form, census questions, health, education, workplaces, and public policy. It appears in rainbow-washed institutions insisting reproductive organs have nothing to do with sex. “Pick your gender: male, female, non-binary, other.”
The fallout is truly devastating. Children are being led into confusion, puberty blockers, sterilisation, and irreversible harm. Women are being placed at risk by men in female-only spaces including in prisons and school camps. Parents, teachers, and even principals are being punished for speaking biological truth. In NSW, a mother was fined $95,000 for vilification for defending women’s sport. Enough is enough. The Sex Discrimination Act must be restored to its original purpose: protect women – real women. This is where the deception stops, and truth begins. Christians must speak clearly, confidently, and unapologetically the Biblical truth of creation: “Male and female He created them.” This truth is reality. This truth is the foundation of human life. And abandoning it is dangerous and wrong. Because the simplest truth remains the most profound: Male + Female = Life

What Michelle failed to mention is the fact that Australia will be the recipient of an increase in God’s judgement as a result of this foolishness. Australia has been under God’s judgement for sometime but it will only escalate. Also, we are fast approaching the Biblical prophesied time of Jesus return. There were 300 plus prophecies of Jesus first coming to Earth that were fulfilled to the letter so it is reasonable to conclude that the 2000 prophecies of Jesus second coming will also be fulfilled. These prophecies are playing out in our day. They are mostly Israel centric and the first major prophecy fulfilled was Israel being miraculously reborn in 1948, over 70 years ago now. What the world needs to be made aware of is the fact that prior to Jesus return God pours out His wrath upon the unrepentant with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements of Revelation 8 & 16. Sadly, the people do not repent as can be seen at their response to some of the Bowl judgements:
“The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch people with fire. They were scorched by the fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God who had power over these plagues. They did not repent and give him glory. The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in anguish and cursed the God of heaven for their pain and sores. They did not repent of their deeds.” Revelation 16:8-11
Generations of believers have wondered about the Book of Revelation, but are we now in our generation actually seeing the signs of the approaching Apocalypse even now? Don’t miss as Jonathan Cahn opens up of The Book of Revelation. Jonathan reveals that all the Biblical end times signs (16) are evident NOW.
What are the main signs that Jesus in the Olivet Discourse and John in Revelation revealed about the time of Jesus second coming: 1. Israel had to be reborn as a nation in its homeland as all the end times prophecies are Israel and Jerusalem centric. Prior to 1948 none made sense as Israel as a nation did not exist. 2. Daniel was told to close up the book of Daniel as it revealed what would unfold in the future when God would regather the Jews from where He had scattered them and their Messiah would rule and reign the nations of the world from a magnificent new Jerusalem. The end times prophecies in Daniel and Revelation are now in play. 3. In the end times the Bible reveals that the Muslim nations surrounding Israel will do their utmost to destroy it: In the six day war Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon were the main protagonists but Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Sudan , Morocco, Tunisia, Kuwait and Yemen provided troops, aircraft, or logistical aid to the coalition, but their forces did not see significant frontline action against Israel. Since then Iran with its proxies Hamas. Hezbollah and Houthi rebels are the main protagonists. The Bible has Turkey leading the way in a war against Israel and recent events support this prophecy playing out in the new future. 4, end times signs such as church apostasy, persecution of Christians, lawlessness, antisemitism are all evident in our day.
