HOW THE WORLD HAS CHANGED AND IT WILL CHANGE EVEN MORE RADICALLY

“China’s import of microchips—$260 billion in 2017, the year of Xi’s Davos debut—was far larger than Saudi Arabia’s export of oil or Germany’s export of cars. China spends more money buying microchips each year than the entire global trade in aircraft. No product is more central to international trade than semiconductors.” 

NVIDIA Corp. designs and manufactures computer graphics processors, chipsets, and related multimedia software. It operates through the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and Tegra Processor segments. It has a market cap of $2.781 Trillion. This makes NVIDIA the world’s third most valuable company.

Note the year given for China’s import of microchips is 2017. Imagine what AI and Robotics will do to increase this figure for Nvidia, Intel, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Samsung, Broadcom Inc., Qualcomm Inc., and many other semiconductor companies.

This website is about helping people recognize God exists and that He is in control of His universe. God’s Word, the Bible provides a true history of the Cosmos from its beginning to its firey end. Much of the Bible is prophecy and much of that prophecy has been fulfilled to the letter, so, we can expect the many end-times prophecies also to be fulfilled. We saw a major end-times prophecy fulfilled in 1948 when Israel was re-established as a nation so Berean Christians are watching as other prophecies play out in our time.

Daniel was given many end-times prophecies 700 years BC. Imagine how he must have been perplexed when he wrote: “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

Daniel had no knowledge of computers, semiconductors, or airplane travel when he wrote “Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”

God has told us that the book of Daniel is for the end times and it is amazing how Daniel unlocks the final book of the Bible, Revelation which is all about the end times and Jesus’ coming Millennial Kingdom. This Earth has had 6,000 years of Satan’s rule. It still has 1000 years before God destroys it, with Jesus ruling and reigning over the nations from a new Jerusalem. The nation God established, Israel, for His purposes will finally fulfill its destiny with its promised Messiah, Jesus as king (http://www.millennialkingdom.net).

Satan is bound for most of the 1,000 years: “Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain. And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be released for a little while.” Revelation 20:1-3

When Satan is released he still gathers an army of rebellious people to come against Jesus and the Saints.

“And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released from his prison and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. And they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them, and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” Revelation 20:7-10

God destroys this Earth with fire. The second resurrection takes place and Jesus judges them at the White Throne judgement.

“Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the Book of Life.” Revelation 20:11-12

For believers, there will be a new heaven and new Earth where only the righteous dwell.

“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away… And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.” Revelation 21:1,3

DRAG QUEENS TAKE CENTER STAGE AT PARIS OLYMPICS OPENING CEREMONY

 The Associated Press report of The Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony: “In an unprecedented display of inclusivity, drag queens took center stage at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony, showcasing the vibrant and influential role of the French LGBTQ+ community.

The 2024 Olympics made a mockery of Christianity as drag queens and dancers lined a long table resembling Da Vinci’s “The Last Supper”, which marks the last meal shared with Christ and his disciples.

Le Filip, the recent winner of “Drag Race France,” expressed their positive “surprise” and “pride” at the ceremony’s scale and representation.

“I thought it would be a five-minute drag event with queer representation. I was amazed. It started with Lady Gaga, then we had drag queens, a huge rave, and a fire in the sky,” they said. “It felt like a crowning all over again. I am proud to see my friends and queer people on the world stage.”

In addition to inviting condemnation for mocking one of the most sacred events for Christians, the opening ceremonies featured another prop viewed as a slap in the face to people of faith: a golden calf. As explained in Exodus 32, while the people of Egypt were waiting for Moses to come down from the mountain, they decided to create an idol of a golden calf despite God’s instructions in Exodus 20 not to worship idols.

A fashion show at the ceremony included a scene that resembled a modern re-creation of Leonardo da Vinci’s famous painting, with French actor Philippe Katerine appearing as the Greek god Dionysus, painted blue and wearing little more than a bunch of flowers covering his modesty. Katerine was reclining on a dinner platter in an attempt to imitate Dionysus, the pagan god of drunkenness and orgies. 

St Peter and Paul’s Catholic Cathedral bishop Andrew Mukukuoi told The Australian the act was a distasteful joke. “I think it was offensive to all Christians around the world,” Father Mukukuoi said.

“It was a mockery because they made a joke of something really important for Christians, the Last Supper was when Christ gave us his body.” “They didn’t mock any other religion but chose to make a joke of Christianity. It was a distasteful thing to watch and whoever commissioned this should be held to account.”

Surely, this will be sufficient evidence to show Christians that we are in the Biblical prophesied end times before Jesus returns to restore righteousness. God will not allow His Son to be mocked. Macron does not realise the extent of the judgment he has unleashed on the nation he governs.

PSALM 83 AND END TIMES PROPHECIES

Does Psalm 83 speak of the end times? Jonathan Cahn says it does. It is about the enemies of Israel coming against Israel to destroy it. The enemies of Israel are enemies of God.

Satan has been coming against Israel ever since its inception. The nations mentioned in Psalm 83 are all the nations that are coming against Israel today so it does have meaning for today. Remember that Israel did not exist as a nation for almost 2,000 years. It only became a nation again in 1948 and when it became a nation again, almost immediately, all of the nations mentioned in Psalm 83 came against Israel intending to annihilate it exactly as stated: “They say, “Come, let us wipe them out as a nation; let the name of Israel be remembered no more!” Psalms 83:4

This is a great sermon. God has raised up Jonathan Cahn as an end-times prophet. He is just one of many who speak the truth from God’s Word about the perilous times we are living in.

HOW ACADEMIA GET IT WRONG WHEN THEY REJECT THE TRUTH OF GOD’S WORD

The article in The Australian this weekend by Timothy J. Lynch, professor of American politics at the University of Melbourne, “The Assassin’s bullet shows why the left gets history all wrong” shows how academia and a society, that has rejected God as Creator, and His sovereignty over His Cosmos, will view events such as the recent assassination attempt on Donald Trump. He provides an analogy of the similarities of the assassination attempts on Trump and Hitler, to underscore not how similar Trump is to Hitler, but rather, how chance and luck – good and bad – often decide history.

Lynch’s assessment of where academia and society are at is strangely accurate: “We have built a culture on a misplaced sense of mastery, that we can control the weather, that gender is fluid, and that grand theories are better than simple explanations for the death of kings and survival of presidential candidates.

He says, “I’ve spent a career in the social sciences. We tend to favour big causes of things. The economic determinism of Karl Marx was an inescapable part of the humanities for 150 years. Today, class-based analysis has been eclipsed by research programs setting out to show the explanatory power of race and/or gender. Entire university careers can be spun out sifting data to fit a chosen structural theory. Critical race theory is in vogue, especially in the US.

Its proponents claim that all issues, from the everyday interactions of men and women to global inequalities, can (and must) be tied to the racism of white people. In the Anglophobe West, you would be hard-pressed to find a college campus or government department that does not pay some sort of homage to this theory. It is only a theory, after all.

Many disciplines do something similar with patriarchy. It has become a meta-cause of various social injustices. Patriarchy must be smashed. Ditto “toxic masculinity”. Again, a big cause can and must be moulded to fit the effect requiring one. Every modern social science has its bogeyperson – the big structural nemesis demanding defeat. 

However, Trump’s narrow escape has no significant structural explanation. He was plain lucky. He moved his head, just as Hitler stood at the strongest part of the table, at just the right moment. 

Academics hate this stuff. We are uneasy with the unexpected, the contingent, and the accidental.

We dismiss it as too epiphenomenal – as too unrelated to the big structural pressures we need to see manifest. To have world history turn on the turning of Trump’s head is impossible to model, measure, and predict.

We are still too close to know how the events in Pennsylvania will be remembered. But already, like those in Dallas on November 22, 1963, large causes, even conspiracies, are being found for what was simply one insignificant young man choosing to kill his significant peer.

The real agents of history turn out to be men such as John Wilkes Booth (who killed President Abraham Lincoln), Gavrilo Princip (who killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand), and Lee Harvey Oswald (who killed President John F. Kennedy).

The structure within which each man acted is a historical curiosity, incidental or irrelevant. Their skill, and certainly their luck, changed history. So why, in our explanations of events, do we grasp for structure over agency?

One important reason, I think, is ideological: agency as an explanation makes people accountable for their actions. Oppressed people cannot be responsible for, much less accountable, for their oppression. Intersectionality, the faux science of progressive academia, fits everyone onto an oppressor v oppressed scale.

This leads to a contemporary discourse where the individual is exculpated from the consequences of his poor decisions. George Floyd, for example, did not make dumb life choices leading to him to Minneapolis that 2020 day. His killing could not simply be a chance encounter with a bad cop. Rather, his fate was explicable wholly in terms of the racism of the city’s police, itself part of the “white supremacy” and “structural racism” of the wider system. For the left, his agency was irrelevant; he had none.

A second related reason is the need to condemn a “great man” theory, that the history of the world is but the biography of great men. The new left recoils at the notion that great white men are the engines of history – what about all the forgotten women and people of colour? – while claiming these individuals are the progenitors of contemporary injustice.

The irony is the left’s implicit faith in the diagnosis of history as an inescapable structural force by one of history’s greatest men: a 19th-century Jewish economic theorist called Marx. 

A third reason we prefer structure to agency is psychological. It is much more reassuring to blame society for what ails us than to admit that miscalculation and bad luck account for our lot. The popularity of psychology as an academic discipline, especially among young women, speaks to a deep-seated need for answers that religious faith used to provide. Instead of individual repentance for sin as a guarantor of salvation, we now encourage groups to find blame in structures they cannot control but must work to change.

Life and death do not work this way. I’d wager your greatest love and most profound tragedy will have more to do with chance and fate (the goddess worshipped by Romans as Fortuna) than with any systemic, structural, or social force.”

Lynch mentions that the once-held religious faith provided the answers to the big questions and what is required for salvation. But a world that has rejected God’s history of the world given to us by God in His Word, the Bible, is now facing the wrath of God. Fulfilled prophecy proves God’s Word provides the true history of the world. We should therefore believe the future end times prophecies of God’s coming Trumpet (Revelation 8;6-) and Bowl (Revelation 16:1-) judgements.

HOW AI AND QUANTUM COMPUTING WILL IMPACT EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Amazon and Walmart are good examples of how AI will adversely affect employment opportunities.

The online retailer behemoth, Amazon, is the second-largest private employer in the U.S. – 1.5 million people. It’s also one of the largest investors in AI.

It’s building out fully autonomous warehouses… It’s working to automate the delivery process with self-driving vans and delivery drones… and 30% of its “workforce” are already robots.

Robots don’t sleep. They don’t take vacations. They never need a break. So, let me ask you this: How much longer until Amazon decides these robots are ready to take on the full workload of its 1.5 million remaining workers? And what do you think will happen when 1.5 million hardworking Americans are suddenly out of a job? Biblical prophesied end times lawlessness will be the outcome. Young people will be marching on the streets causing havoc.

“And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 24:12-13

And Amazon is far from the only giant company doing this. Walmart Inc. (WMT), the largest private employer in the U.S., is rolling out fully automated distribution centers using a combination of AI and robots. The company’s distribution centers are in operation but come with one big catch: There aren’t any people.

What about “knowledge workers” – i.e., accountants, business strategists, lawyers, and doctors – who make optimal decisions, are good at problem-solving, can strategize, and always act in the best interests of the business?

ChatGPT and other forms of AI are killing that paradigm. It makes it so that businesses can scale critical thinking and knowledge work. It doesn’t matter if you have a blue or white collar: AI could be a threat to your job. The reason why AI is more of a threat now than it was when ChatGPT made its debut in 2022 is because of quantum computing. Quantum computers allow for multiple computational pathways to be explored at the same time, opening new avenues and speeds for solving complex problems.

We’re talking about machines so advanced that they can instantly execute calculations that would take the world’s most advanced supercomputers nearly half a century to process.

It’s not like the transition from the horse and buggy to the automobile. It’s more like horse and buggy to the SR-71 Blackbird… the fastest jet ever made. The difference is utterly mind-blowing.

With quantum computing, the digital elite will have AI that is not constrained by computational speed. Quantum-powered AI will drive efficiencies by getting rid of human workers and driving up corporate profits. No matter the job, robots, software, and AI – powered by a new breed of computer – will be able to do it better and cheaper.

This is the societal and economic equivalent of a 10,000-foot mega tsunami. It’s about to slam into our world and alter the trajectory of our world forever. It is amazing that 600 years before Jesus Christ came to Earth for the first time, Daniel was told that the time before Jesus’ second coming to Earth, two of the signs would be that people would be travelling a lot and knowledge would increase. This must have sounded strange to Daniel as he had no concept of air travel and the internet, AI, and quantum computing.

“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

END TIMES PROPHECIES BEING FULFILLED – FAMINES, PESTILENCES, EARTHQUAKES, WARS AND RUMOURS OF WARS

“And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 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 24:6-8

South Sudan is facing a confluence of humanitarian crises that are pushing the country to the brink of starvation. Conflict in neighbouring Sudan has caused over 692,000 people to flee into the country, hyperinflation is crippling the economy, climate change impacts continue to wreak havoc and all the while, the Humanitarian Aid Fund is only at 16%. At the same time, forecasts indicate that there will be above-normal rainfall in July following heavy rains that affected several areas in East Africa earlier this year. Already, 46% of South Sudan’s, 5.83 million people, were facing a worsening hunger situation with reports indicating that 1.7 million children could face malnutrition in 2024. Combined these factors are placing millions of lives and livelihoods at immediate risk. “The humanitarian situation in South Sudan is getting worse every day,” said Abel Whande, CARE in South Sudan Country Director. “We are particularly concerned at the condition of women, girls, and children arriving at transit centres in Rienk and Bahr el Ghazal, as part of the dramatic increase in refugees escaping violence in Sudan.

Hyperinflation and currency depreciation have made access to basic necessities nearly impossible, with families spending most of their income on food. This economic crisis, combined with the aftermath of years of conflict, severely undermines the communities’ ability to rebuild and recover. Adding to the difficulties, South Sudan is also bearing the brunt of the extreme impacts of climate change. Extreme weather events, including floods and prolonged droughts, are destroying crops, displacing communities, and exacerbating food insecurity. These climate shocks are pushing already vulnerable people into deeper poverty and despair. CARE alongside South Sudan local organizations are working hard to support communities and the refugees and returnees however they can but the situation is overwhelming. “The influx of refugees and returnees while communities already are facing severe conditions worsen an already bad humanitarian situation, ” said Angelina Nyajima, CEO of Hope Restoration, one of CARE’s partners.

To avert a catastrophe, the international community must act swiftly. Increased funding for the humanitarian response is paramount. More specifically, support must extend to the host communities, those who generously share their limited resources with displaced families. And long-term solutions, like investments in infrastructure, agriculture, and education, are the only way to break the cycle of poverty and vulnerability that fuels conflict.

TENNESSEE DECLARES JULY A MONTH OF PRAYER AND FASTING AFTER PRIDE MONTH

The state of Tennessee has called its citizens to spend the month of July in prayer and fasting as a way to “reclaim our nation” after Pride Month, we ask that “the Holy Spirit fill our halls of government,” and renew our nation in God’s image and likeness.

The resolution asks God to deliver the state and our nation “from violence committed upon our citizens by non-citizens,” as well as “human trafficking,” “deadly fentanyl” sales, family breakdown, and “corruption in our federal government.” “We hold that ‘Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain,’” the resolution says, quoting Psalm 127:1.

“As public servants in the Tennessee General Assembly, we seek God’s [m]ercy upon our land and beseech Him to not withdraw His Hand of blessing from us,” the resolution declares. “We recognize that God, as Creator and King of all Glory, has both the authority to judge and to bless nations or states. … We recognize our sins and shortcomings before Him and humbly ask His forgiveness.”

Importantly, it concludes with a petition for the renewal of the state and the entire country: “[W]e ask that the Holy Spirit fill our halls of government, our classrooms, our places of business, our churches, and our homes with peace, love, and joy,” says the resolution. It asks all Tennesseans to engage in a month of “prayer and intermittent fasting” as “a means of seeking God’s blessing and humbling ourselves to receive His [g]race and [m]ercy, transforming ourselves, our communities, our [s]tate, and our [n]ation.”

Tennessee State Rep. Jason Zachary (R), a co-sponsor of the bill, told “Washington Watch” Tuesday that legislators passed the bill in the spring with July in mind, because “this is the month of our independence. To be transparent: We are following Pride Month, which was part of the conversation — how we reclaim our nation? And the way we as believers approach that is through prayer,” said Zachary. “We know that we are facing an enemy looking to steal, kill, and destroy. And we serve the Author of all things, the King of Kings.”

Delegates envisioned “the people of our state being unified. Believers calling out, saying, ‘Lord, we need You. We’re a land that has lost its way. We’re still the greatest nation in the world, the freest and wealthiest people. We’ve done more to advance the Kingdom and further the cause of Christ than any other nation in the history of the world,” said Zachary on Tuesday.

“But we’re very different” than the faith-filled generations that carved the United States out of an undeveloped wild and founded a constitutional republic rooted in biblical principles, Zachary told “Washington Watch” guest host, former Congressman Jody Hice. “Even in the 10 years that I’ve been serving,” America has become “a very different nation.”

Elected officials saw this resolution as their way of putting into effect 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

Hice, the former U.S. representative turned senior vice president of Family Research Council, called the bill’s passage “a great source of encouragement” and “certainly a story that you are not going to hear about from the legacy media.”

The state House of Representatives passed the legislation, House Joint Resolution 803, by an overwhelmingly bipartisan 82-6 vote on March 4. All six no votes came from Democrats. The bill passed the state Senate 27-1 on April 8. Governor Bill Lee (R) signed the prayer resolution into law on April 16. The signature reflects the governor’s personal relationship with God, said Zachary, who declared, “Governor Lee loves the Lord.”

“We need the Lord to hear us and heal us and have grace on us once again,” said Zachary.

God does answer prayer, so watching the state of Tennessee will be interesting but as for the USA it is already under God’s judgement which will only escalate. Biblical prophecy shows us that the USA does not feature in the events of the last seven years when the Antichrist rises to power and this is understandable considering the godless state of the nation: abortion, homosexuality, gay marriage, transgenderism. The country is debt-ridden with corruption rife and its government is currently run by a senile President. It has already lost credibility with the rising powers China, and Russia, as well as the U.N.

SAN FRANCISCO: PUBLIC NUDITY PERMITTED IN PRIDE PARADE

The recent San Francisco Pride Parade featured nude adults walking around in front of children and a “Fetish Zone” where men urinated on each other in a kiddie pool and performed other sex acts.

Do you believe a God of righteousness will allow this to continue? Thank goodness Jesus told us that this lawlessness would precede His return to deal with Satan, and his Antichrist, and restore righteousness.

Most mainstream media outlets that covered the event neglected to cover its lewder aspects, with the San Francisco Chronicle running with the headline: “SF Pride Parade draws thousands celebrating LGBTQ community: ‘We love our people'” “Pride takes over San Francisco streets with eye-catching costumes and fantastic floats,” read the headline from SFGate.

Multiple reporters on the ground over the weekend posted graphic footage on X of the annual event that receives millions in donations from corporations and civic organizations in San Francisco. The ATF and FBI also participated in the parade, according to footage obtained by TENET Media.

TENET Media field reporter Taylor Hansen interviewed multiple nude men on the street who attempted to justify their public nudity in front of children as natural and sometimes even good for them.

“None of the crybabies and parents who complain about it can ever explain exactly how a child is harmed by seeing the human body, and every study that’s been done on the subject shows that it’s not harmful. Children who grow up with it are more well-adjusted,” said one naked man who described himself as “a nudist and an artist.”

Footage taken by reporter Savanah Hernandez at the event’s Fetish Zone showed a bearded man in an inflatable kiddie pool being urinated on by a woman as others around them watched. Hernandez reported that despite the area being 18+, the attendant was not checking IDs. Footage of the same pool taken by Hansen showed a similar situation, but which also included fellatio. When Hansen approached police about the incident, they reportedly told him it was a “pick your own battles kind of day.” Other booths in the Fetish Zone reportedly featured men getting whipped and spanked, as well as other simulated sex acts.

This is clear evidence we are in the Biblical prophesied last days before Jesus returns so we need to tell our unsaved loved ones and friends that it is also the time when God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet (Rev. 8:1-11:19) and Bowl (Rev. 16:1-21) judgements.

“The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up…” Revelation 8:1

“Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.” So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.” Revelation 16:1-2

How many churches are making disciples that will preach this Gospel message?

QUANTUM COMPUTING Vs CLASSICAL COMPUTING

If you have not read my previous report Quantum Computing and How It Will Affect the Job Market then you need to do so before you read this post.

Quicker processing speeds mean that computers can tackle more complex problems, which will improve predictive analytics, pattern recognition, and complex optimization tasks.

The implications here are hard to understate. While classical computers have made tremendous gains over the decades, we’re talking about a complete paradigm shift with quantum computing. You can throw Moore’s Law – which states that the number of transistors on a microchip (and, in turn, computing power) doubles approximately every two years – out the window.

Up until recently, building a quantum computer was prohibitively expensive. They were overwhelmingly complex and massive, and they needed to be kept in stable laboratory conditions and cooled to nearly absolute zero (-459 degrees Fahrenheit).

In other words, they were confined to academic research labs and a few well-heeled tech companies.

But thanks to a single piece of technology called an ion trapper, that’s all about to change…

Made of a composite group of highly specialized materials including silicon, quartz, and sapphire, an ion trapper uses electrically charged atoms to store and manipulate qubits. (A qubit is the quantum version of the classic binary bit.) The important thing to know is that this approach promises to take quantum computing out of the physics lab.

We’re talking about the first-ever commercially viable quantum computer. It will potentially be:

  • Able to operate at room temperature,
  • A fraction of the size of traditional quantum computers,
  • Stable enough to operate in any environment,
  • And as simple to use as any laptop.

Hopefully, all who read this can appreciate that what we are exploring is the complex world that God created for mankind. We can only do this because God created us in His image with some of the creative abilities that He possesses.

Sadly, we know from Biblical prophecy that the world we live in is like the world was at the time Noah lived. It has rejected God and is lawless and it will come under the control of Satan and his Antichrist. The good news is we know in advance that Satan and his Antichrist’s reign is short. As prophesied, Jesus will return, first to rescue the Saints and God pours out His wrath upon the Earth with the Trumpet (Revelation 8:6 to Rev 11:15) and Bowl (Revelation 16:1-21) judgements. Jesus then returns to Earth to defeat Satan and the Antichrist at the battle of Armageddon (Revelation 19:11-21).

Victorious Jesus sets up His Millennial Kingdom with glorified Saints. If you want to know more about what is next on God’s agenda for planet Earth, follow this website and go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net.

QUANTUM COMPUTING AND HOW IT WILL IMPACT THE JOB MARKET

Look what happened in the 1970s. Robots started becoming widely used in manufacturing… Corporations began using computers to automate routine tasks… record keeping, database management, accounting… Spreadsheet software could do the work of dozens of entry and mid-level workers…

This put incredible downward pressure on our value as workers… and pay. Technology slashes the number of people needed to do a job or complete a task. Technology is a deflationary force on wages.

The blame for America’s huge and rapidly growing wealth divide is often pinned on politics, race, interest rates, or our money. The truth is, it’s a force FAR larger and more powerful than any of those things. And it’s rarely talked about. The ROOT CAUSE of wealth inequality is technology.

The American worker hasn’t received a meaningful raise in pay since the 1970s. Americans have no money anymore because they’re not being paid. One of the most fundamental ideas of America itself is the belief that anyone who works hard and perseveres can get ahead. That is just no longer true. No matter how hard they work – or how well their investments do – people struggle to get ahead… while going deeper and deeper into debt.

In the modern digital economy, a rising tide no longer lifts all boats… just the mega yachts.

This is the biggest problem our country now faces. Being drastically underpaid and underappreciated is something people can only take for so long. America’s streets are quickly becoming ground zero for a class war that’s been building for years. As this crisis worsens, everyone left behind will turn to more extreme measures, creating an upheaval like we’ve never seen before. It will be a war between the haves and have nots. The people who understand this technology and everyone else.

This will have huge implications for the political landscape in the coming years. The outcry over low pay, joblessness, and wealth inequality will lead to American political power tilting more and more towards big government… towards socialist thinking.

Now, large percentages of wealthy households don’t earn enough income to repay their debts. The single-digit millionaire is the new middle class. Politicians will never allow tens of millions of citizens to go bankrupt. The only plausible solution is a nationwide program from which all citizens receive a regular minimum income, without a need to work… A Universal Basic Income. Some might think “There’s no way this could really happen… Not here.” However numerous pilot programs are already underway across the country. Many are being touted as huge successes… with full support from Tech’s top business leaders… And why wouldn’t they? Universal basic income is a dream come true for Big Tech. It’s like a subsidy for the digital elite. Why pay the salaries of millions of hard-working Americans when Uncle Sam will do it for you? That’s the new era into which we are entering.

Certain things are inevitable right now. Corporate bankruptcies will increase as AI and quantum computing go mainstream. New technology drives out old. Not everyone will adapt. Not everyone can adapt. Many of the companies that won’t make it are sitting in retirement accounts, IRAs, and 401(k)s as we speak… We saw this with the Internet revolution. Amazon killed hundreds of retail chains… Uber destroyed cabs… Netflix killed Blockbuster… The iPhone was the death knell for Kodak.

The percentage of stocks that produce good returns is about to go way down. The percentage of stocks that turn out to be losers is about to go way up. It’s like a wealth divide in the stock market. This has already started.

Millions of high-paying jobs will be reduced or eliminated as well… Regardless of what you do… Sometime in the next 5 years, you or someone you know will be replaced by a robot or an algorithm that does that job better. One that never sleeps, never vacations, never gets sick, doesn’t need healthcare or a 401(k).

As it worsens, we’ll see more and more people falling behind. There will be riots, protests, and violence on a scale we’ve never seen before. This is prophesied in God’s Word, the Bible, as the state of the world before Jesus returns to restore righteousness and rule and reign on the Earth for another 1,000 years. Bible prophecy warns us that we are approaching the last seven years before Jesus returns. It will be a time of intense persecution of Christians.

“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, betray, 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. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 24:9-13
