Prophecy Line
Perilous-times Traitors?
Anyone who studies Bible prophecy from the pre-Trib viewpoint and observes the issues and events under that great prophetic microscope must include the Apostle Paul’s “perilous times” forecast to comprehend this end-times panorama.
Here again is that prophecy:
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. (2 Timothy 3:1–5)
We’ve looked at these end-of-the-age characteristics many times in these articles and other venues. Usually, the topics have concentrated on the words used by Paul, including “men shall be…lovers of themselves, fierce and without natural affection.”
Certainly, this generation displays these characteristics in significant profusion. We’ve pointed out, for example, that posting “selfies” and creative narcissistic narratives on Facebook and other platforms indicates that this generation embraces the description “lovers of their own selves” given in this prophecy.
The characteristic “without natural affection,” we’ve noted, involves mothers aborting more than sixty million babies here in America. Also, it’s been pointed out that homosexuality and the transsexual victimization of children proves that this generation demonstrates that “without natural affection” trait as well.
We only have to look at the “wars and rumors of war” going on in the form of military conflict between warring nations, and at raging in the streets right here in America, to understand that we’re experiencing the characteristic Paul described as “fierce.”
All the “perilous times,” end-times descriptives are in play at this moment as we receive reports hourly of what’s going on in the world. But I’d like to look in particular at a couple of terms in Paul’s prophecy for the balance of the commentary: “trucebreakers,” “false accusers,” “traitors,” and “highminded.”
In my view, those words describe growing evidence encompassing the revealing of the false accusations and evil perpetrated within the so-called deep state over the past number of years. All the wicked subterfuge committed against first a presidential candidate, then the ongoing such activity against that man in his two separate presidencies is on the verge of being proven, I believe. Or perhaps by the time this commentary is posted, the revelations and subsequently the truth will already have come forth.
I’m sure those doing the traitorous activity will no doubt still be claiming, despite the evidence, that it’s all just political rhetoric—or is otherwise framed as not believable.
To me, it reflects on the biblical prognosis, “Be sure, your sins will find you out” (Numbers 32:23).
The perpetrators of this traitorous subterfuge just might have been found out. The following might be the evidence that will prove the traitorous activity that has filled the headlines with lies for so many years.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard accused former President Barack Obama of orchestrating a “treasonous conspiracy” to undermine Donald Trump’s 2016 election victory, making unprecedented allegations from the White House briefing room on Wednesday, July 23, 2025.
Speaking at 11:44 PM EDT, Gabbard alleged that Obama and his national security team directed the creation of an intelligence community assessment they knew was false regarding Russian interference in the 2016 election. The former Democratic congresswoman claimed Obama’s administration manufactured findings to promote the narrative that Russia interfered to help Trump win. (“Obama Accused of Treason in Shocking Development,” Headline Reporter, Sunday, July 27, 2025)
Following shortly thereafter evidence was discovered that might prove true the charges made by the National Security Director.
FBI Director Kash Patel has uncovered a trove of long-hidden documents tied to the Trump-Russia investigation inside a secret room at FBI headquarters, according to sources familiar with the discovery who spoke with Fox News. The stash—found in so-called “burn bags” typically used to destroy sensitive materials—reportedly includes thousands of pages and computer hard drives, among them the classified annex to former Special Counsel John Durham’s final report.
Speaking in a June interview with podcast host Joe Rogan, Patel described locating the previously undisclosed room inside the bureau’s Hoover Building. “Comedy and others hid [this room] from the world…locked the key and hid access and just said, ‘No one’s ever gonna find this place,’” Patel said. He added the room was filled with documents and storage devices “that no one had ever seen or heard of.” (“Patel Uncovers Hidden FBI Files Tied to Trump-Russia Probe,” by Walt Rasinger, New Conservative Post, July 31, 2025)
To me, this entire political cesspool smells of the Apostle Paul’s “perilous times” descriptions: “trucebreakers,” “false accusers,” “traitors,” and “high-minded.” That shouldn’t be surprising to those who seek truth in their study of Bible prophecy. As we discern prophetic stage-setting signals in every direction on the near horizon so near the end of this Age of Grace, this great traitorous betrayal predicted by Paul is front and center. When we see “all these things beginning to come to pass,” then we understand it is time to “look up! Our Redeemer, the Lord Jesus Christ, is drawing near”!
Days of Noah, Days of Lot Alert!
Ever since Donald J. Trump became president #45, I’ve presented in this column the conviction that his coming into such global power must have dramatic prophetic significance.
Specifically, I’ve expressed that Trump’s presidency might be relevant to what I believe is one of the most obvious prophecies for the time of the Rapture of the Church.
I believe and have often put forward that the words of Jesus about the days of Lot, as recorded in Luke 17:28–30, portrays precisely what things will be like when Christ steps onto the clouds of Glory and shouts “Come up here!”
That belief about social and cultural atmospherics at Christ’s next catastrophic intervention into the affairs of mankind has been framed as “business as usual.” In other words, things will be going along pretty much as usual, economically speaking, when the Church is called into eternity at the Rapture. People will be buying, selling, building, planting–doing all the things of normal life.
As a matter of fact, I believe Jesus’ words in that prophecy indicate that things, fiscally speaking, will be moving along at a better-than-usual pace.
Sodom and Gomorrah constituted the region in the Middle East that had to offer the richest lifestyles for inhabitants. Remember, Lot chose to go to Sodom when his Uncle Abraham offered him his choice of places to establish residence. Sodom was the lushest, most desirable area in the region.
Of course, Sodom and Gomorrah at the same time constituted the wickedest place on earth, according to Genesis chapter 19.
I draw the parallel of our society and culture today to that experienced by Lot in Sodom. Just as America’s economy is beginning to pick up at a reluctantly acknowledged pace of increase by some anti-Trump pundits, we have endured a corruptive and wicked societal and cultural degradation over the past months and years.
We all know about the woke insanity that was intended to fundamentally transform America, according to Barack Obama. Things became so insane that government was preventing parents from keeping the evil forces from mutilating their children to change their genders, even arresting parents in some instances.
And now, the much-hated Donald J. Trump is credited—reluctantly so by Trump-haters—with creating an economy that is on the verge of booming. For instance:
- Wall Street sentiment is surging as the stock market reaches new record highs. JPMorgan Chase & Co., Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, UBS Global Wealth Management, and Barclays have all elevated their S&P 500 Index year-end targets—now predicting record gains to continue.
- Consumer outlook is on the rise. With core inflation at its lowest level since March 2021, expectations for an inflation spike have “completely receded” as Americans grow increasingly confident about the economic outlook.
- Price hikes never materialized. A new study found that prices for imported goods have actually declined faster than prices for overall goods — confirming that tariffs have had little effect on prices.
- By all metrics, President Trump is overseeing another economic boom. Jobs numbers have trounced expectations for four straight months, gas prices remain at their lowest level in four years, and blue-collar wage growth has seen the largest increase in nearly 60 years. (https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/07/trust-in-trump-sentiment-surges-as-economy-booms)
And even the most ardent anti-Trump entertainment types have joined in praising the Trump economic phenomenon.
Bill Maher said he has been proven wrong about his belief that President Trump’s tariff plan was going to wreck the economy.
The veteran comic, during the latest episode of his “Club Random” podcast on Monday, said he agreed with those who projected the president’s “Liberation Day” tariffs, which were announced in early April, would result in the economy being “tanked” by the Fourth of July.
“I would have thought—and I gotta own it—that these tariffs were going to [expletive deleted] sink this economy by this time—and they didn’t,” Maher said.
A moment earlier, he noted how the stock market has reached record highs and that it does not look like the country is on the verge of a 21st Century Great Depression when he drives around town.
His comments stand out, considering he originally lambasted the tariffs in April. At the time, Maher said on his HBO show “Real Time” that using tariffs to try and get a better trade deal with China was a “completely a–backwards” approach. (“Bill Maher Says He Was Wrong About Trump Tariffs: ‘I Gotta Own It’,” Sean Burch, July 28, 2025)
Since Maher reversed his course on the Trump economic successes, the president’s trade deals and their achievements with China, the EC, and many other such fiscally amazing deals based upon tariff dynamics continue to perplex his political enemies and astound the financial experts.
With the “days of Lot” prophecy by Jesus plainly appearing like our own day, the other foretelling by the Lord cannot be missed either. Jesus said that as it was during the days of Noah, so will it be in the day of the coming of the Son of man (Luke 17:26–27).
The primary characteristics that marked that antediluvian time were total moral and genetic corruption. One other thing that made God say He was sorry He had made mankind was the blood-drenched violence throughout the world.
Our generation is, in my estimation, becoming more and more like that antediluvian age. Just this morning as I compose this commentary, there have been reports in a single newscast of multiple shootings throughout America and the world–murderous rampages that have no apparent causes the authorities can figure.
The liberal news reports call these “gun violence,” but it is “people violence,” and it is saturating all societies throughout the world.
There is but one answer to the days-of-Noah-and-Lot characteristics from which this world suffers. The answer is the Person who warned that these societal and cultural characteristics would be prevalent when He next intervenes into the affairs of humanity. The Lord Jesus Christ will suddenly call all believers–all who are righteous in God’s holy eyes—to Himself.
When the Rapture of the Church happens, judgment will begin falling on a world of rebellious, violence-filled people. This righteous act by God must take place in order to bring His Son Jesus to rule on a restored planet where righteousness reigns.
You don’t want to be left behind when Christ’s call is heard by all who are Christians. Here is how to be sure you will hear that call:
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)
Terry James and Pastor Happy Caldwell, host of VTN TV, interview on “Tracking Toward Tribulation: And the Any Moment Intervention By Jesus Christ”
Terry James and Pastor Caldwell discuss the many Prophetic indicators bombarding mankind in the hourly news headlines today. All of the troubling things being reported point to the soon coming Call to those who are Saved by the Lord Jesus Christ to meet Him in the Clouds of Glory.
The Rapture is the next major Event on God’s Prophetic Calendar, according to Bible prophecy. Don’t be left behind!
Here is how to Go be with Christ when the Rapture happens.
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)
Last-days Jerusalem
Israel is the one nation and Jerusalem is the one city on the planet God personally reserves for Himself. He doesn’t equivocate; it is His nation and city, and anyone or anything that tries to wrest it from Him will suffer eternal consequences.
We ascertain this when we read verses like the following:
- “For the land is Mine; for you are but aliens and sojourners with Me” (Leviticus 25:23).
- “Then I will uproot you from My land which I have given you” (2 Chronicles 7:20).
- “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it” (Zechariah 12:2–3).
The God of Creation, who in reality owns every atom of existence, clearly tells the inhabitants of planet earth that these are His geographical places. The Lord, in warning those who would harm Jerusalem, refers to that city this way:
For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. (Zechariah 2:8)
Jesus, the Messiah, said about this city, while weeping,
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, [thou] that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under [her] wings, and ye would not! (Matthew 23:37)
These and many other Scriptures make it undeniably clear that God loves Israel and Jerusalem. He considers them His personal earthly real estate. He loved them in the past and has great prophetic plans for them. Therefore, He loves Israel and Jerusalem today.
This being the documentable case, I’ve had a question for a number of decades: Why the following reference to this divinely designated real estate?
And their dead bodies [shall lie] in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. (Revelation 11:8)
The reference here is to the two witnesses who will preach to the earth-dwellers of the Tribulation era. The question that has always ruminated in my mind is why God calls this beloved city and nation, “spiritually,” “Sodom and Egypt”?
The people of Israel, before its dispersions and after its modern regathering in the land, have been wicked and done things contrary to God’s will. But so have every other city and nation that have ever existed.
The condemnation in this Revelation context seems to reference prophecy yet future. Jerusalem is destined to become as wicked as the ancient city of Sodom and the idol-worshipping ancient Egypt, in God’s holy view. This shouldn’t surprise, considering how the devil is working overtime everywhere in the world today. Satan wanted to usurp the throne of God—e.g., Isaiah 14:13–14. It stands to reason—and to scriptural analysis—that the wicked one would want to usurp Christ’s future earthly throne as well. And, for a fact, not even the unbelieving heathens of the world can deny that Jerusalem and the nation Israel are at the center of global conflict today. It is the most feared potential point for triggering nuclear conflagration on this old, troubled sphere.
Lucifer, the fallen one, is certainly working his devilish plan to bring all to Armageddon. This includes his all out-efforts against the apple of God’s eye—the city of Zion, Jerusalem. He will indeed succeed in making Jerusalem, spiritually, like Sodom. Proof that Satan’s plan is far along in its progress toward that goal is in today’s news.
Since 2006 the efforts have been ongoing to make Jerusalem the center or focus of the gay pride organizational drive in Israel. There continues to be resistance to that drive. The following report explains somewhat.
May 30 (Reuters)—Jerusalem on Thursday held its annual gay pride parade under heavy security and with a subdued vibe, given the solemn mood in Israel after months of war.
LGBTQ+ supporters marched the streets of Jerusalem carrying rainbow flags, Israeli flags and yellow ribbons, a symbol for hostages still held in Gaza. Absent were the vibrant cheers and music that usually accompany the event. Organizers estimated that 10,000 people marched. Police said some 2,000 officers were on guard.
The turnout was smaller than in previous years. Last year’s parade in Jerusalem was estimated to have drawn 30,000 people.
Netanel Shaler, executive director at Havruta, an LGBTQ+ group for those with a religious leaning, said the goal was to be sensitive to the overall security situation while still allowing people to march…
Some protesters appeared on the sidelines holding signs against the parade. There were no unexpected incidents or violence, the organizers said.
Yair Lapid, the opposition leader and former prime minister, took part in the event. “The march is more important this year than ever,” he said. “Here we are reminded that we are not only fighting for the life of the state of Israel but also for what kind of country it will be. What its values are. What it believes in.”
Things are prophetically setting up for the moment when the man of sin, Satan’s false messiah, Antichrist, sits in a temple atop Mount Moriah, precisely above the spot where the Ark of the Covenant once sat (2 Thessalonians 2:3–4). He might even sit upon the same Ark, if it is found, or a counterfeit one, declaring himself to be God, and demanding worship (Revelation 13).
So, the grand parade to pervert God’s order of things regarding sexuality will be on full display, no doubt, until the man of sin sits on Moriah declaring himself to be God.
They have given it the title “gay pride.” Here’s what God says about humankind’s pride–especially that which perverts His creation order: “The fear of the LORD [is] to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate” (Proverbs 8:13).
Can there be serious doubt that this generation—as witnessed through the events in Jerusalem—stands poised upon the precipice of these last days?
Revisited—Zola Promoted!
Author’s note: In thinking on the many Heaven-sent friends in ministry I’ve known over my many years, my spirit is convicted to once again post a memory of an especially gifted and powerful brother for the great cause of Christ.
I wanted this reposted commentary to be relevant to these times and wanted it to be about a recognized personage that most of you will, I believe, remember well because of his profound presence through his TV ministry Zola Levitt Presents.
Nothing from the past could be more relevant today than matters involving God’s chosen people, the Jews, and His chosen nation, Israel. Zola Levitt personified God’s love for His nation and people. It is with a most-beloved memory that I present again this commentary about someone I look so forward to being again with one eternal day.
This article was originally posted on April 24, 2006.
Zola Promoted!
It was at the Sherlock Bali prophecy conference at Branson, Missouri, a number of summers ago. Several of us were standing around the hotel lobby just outside the main conference room where the lectures and presentations were taking place. My great friend, Zola Levitt, finished his presentation and was making his way through the lobby.
Someone of our group had just asked where in the Bible it explains when the Old Testament saints will be resurrected. About that time, Zola grabbed me and, smiling, with that little laugh he always had, answered the question instantly, when one of us asked it directly of him. He went into detail. He was tremendously qualified to go into detail. There were few with the knowledge Zola had. Then, when he was asked when he might be coming out with another book, he patted my back, and said, “Ask Terry, he’s my publisher.” (Zola wrote many chapters for me in my books of compilation.)
That bit of kindness, I assure, could have caused a mighty swelled head–if it hadn’t caused such a lump in my throat, from the emotion in my humbled heart. That’s just the kind of friend Zola was, and I loved him very much. And will, for all eternity. He was and is my brother forever.
Zola, of course, died [April 19, 2006] after a brief battle with one of the most virulent forms of cancer. He had been diagnosed in February of 2006.
When asked about the cancer that–barring a decision by the Lord to perform a miraculous physical healing—would end his life on earth, Zola, with that typical humorous chuckle, said, “If the Lord wants to give me a promotion, I certainly don’t object.” He wasn’t being flippant. He meant it with all his heart.
Zola received his promotion last Wednesday. Now his assignments will far exceed even the things to do for God’s service he was assigned while in this mortal flesh. His gifts were far beyond those given most of us. Perhaps that was because God knew His servant, Zola, would make full use of what he was given.
Zola Levitt certainly did that, and the world is a more eloquent realm for his having performed his services as a very special royal ambassador.
Iran Leader Uses Prophetic Language
Thinking about Zola made the recent vitriolic talk by the Iranian leader all the more significant. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ranted about the thing Zola Levitt loved most, second only to His Lord and Savior—the nation Israel. About God’s chosen people, the Iranian tyrant said: “The Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm” (“Iran Leader: Israel Will Be Annihilated,” April 14, 2006, Ali Akbar Dareini, Associated Press writer).
Those who follow the Zola Levitt Presents TV program or “The Levitt Letter” know Zola many times addressed Israel as the “fig tree.” He specifically dealt with the following prophecy, given by the Lord Jesus, Himself:
Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors (Matthew 24:32–33).
Those of us who recognize Israel as the key indicator of the lateness of the hour know that far from being “a rotten, dried tree,” like the Iranian dictator proclaims, the nation Israel is putting forth the new growth of its modern nationhood. It is the most productive nation in the Middle East by far and takes second place to no country in the world, so far as contributing to the advancement of civilization is concerned.
So, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s vile words are the antithesis of God’s prophetic truth. Israel is, rather than a dried-up tree, a live, vibrant one that is the center of the world of nations, especially from the viewpoint of international media and the international community. The Iranian president’s declaration that Israel “will be eliminated by one storm” will one day be proven satanically false by a Persian tyrant’s own forces. We see the prophecy concerning this in the following:
Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee. Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought: And thou shalt say,
I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land. (Ezekiel 38:9–12)
We are told what will happen in this “storm” against God’s chosen people:
And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face. For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel; So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground. And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother. And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone” (Ezekiel 38:18–22)
The modern-day Persian leader, Ahmadinejad, is deceived and deluded by the same creature that leads all who oppose God in the direction opposite of the Lord’s ways. My great friend Zola knew there is only one Way, and that is Jesus Christ, who is “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6).
That’s why the newly promoted Zola Levitt, even before his elevation to a higher position, always ended his time before us with words about the Prince of Peace: “Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.”
The End Times Are Accelerating | Terry James | Prophecy Watchers
In this compelling episode, we dive deep into Terry James’ latest prophetic book, Tracking Toward Tribulation & the Any-Moment Intervention by Jesus Christ. Featuring insights from 15 leading Bible prophecy voices, this book dissects today’s most pressing global events and their alignment with end-times Scripture.
DESCENT INTO EVIL: THE NAZI INVASION OF AMERICA AFTER WORLD WAR II AND ITS CONTINUING IMPACT TODAY – By Douglas Woodward
Book review by Terry James
My longtime friend and highly acknowledged authority in Bible prophecy and study of issues and events of our time, Doug Woodward, has written a book that delves into a major enigma spawned from the aftermath of World War II. The book’s in-depth look at the dark implications that grow and reverberate throughout America and the world today, to me, provides insight into the Apostle Paul’s words.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6: 12)
This comprehensive analysis explores the profound and often covert influence of Nazi ideology, technology, personnel, and occult beliefs on post-World War II America. It reveals how these elements infiltrated U.S. intelligence, military programs, political institutions, and cultural narratives, shaping the nation’s trajectory amid Cold War tensions and beyond. The document intricately connects Nazi legacies with American covert operations, psychic research, the space program, and eugenics, offering a critical account of the intertwining of fascist tendencies, occultism, and scientific endeavors in shaping modern America.
Post-War Shift: From Anti-Communism to Fascism
In the aftermath of World War II, the U.S. government’s intense fear of Soviet communism led to the creation of the CIA in 1947, spearheaded by Allen Dulles, whose pre-war connections to Nazi Germany influenced the agency’s covert operations. Programs like Operation Gladio involved secret militant groups with Nazi ties that operated under anti-communist pretenses, signaling a shift toward authoritarian and fascist influences within American foreign policy and governance. Corporate interests and elite alliances increasingly marginalized democratic principles and individual freedoms during this period.
Nazi Technological Myths and UFO Phenomena
The 1952 Washington D.C. UFO sightings catalyzed a government effort to manage public perception, often through disinformation that framed UFOs as extraterrestrial, obscuring the reality of advanced Nazi technologies such as flying saucer prototypes and possible anti-gravity devices developed by scientists like Hans Kammler. These technologies and personnel reportedly continued secret operations in remote regions including Antarctica and South America, fueling ongoing UFO secrecy and governmental cover-ups. The document links these phenomena to intelligence operations and figures connected to the JFK assassination, highlighting a complex nexus of Nazi escapees, intelligence agents, and mind control programs.
Nazi Infiltration into American Intelligence and Society
Driven by Cold War anti-communism, U.S. intelligence agencies recruited former Nazis, notably Reinhard Gehlen and his network, to leverage their expertise against the Soviet Union. This alliance prioritized geopolitical strategy over justice, facilitating the covert presence of Nazi war criminals in America. The Vatican and sympathetic governments aided Nazi escapes via “ratlines,” while American political and financial elites—including prominent families like the Bushes and Rockefellers—participated in these covert arrangements. Media outlets such as The New York Times played roles in shaping public opinion to downplay Nazi atrocities and support these clandestine operations.
Occultism, Psychic Research, and Supernatural Warfare
Nazi interests in the occult and psychic phenomena profoundly influenced U.S. Cold War intelligence and military programs.
Secret projects—MK-ULTRA, ARTICHOKE, BLUEBIRD, and others—investigated mind control, remote viewing, and psychic warfare, largely as countermeasures to Soviet psychic espionage. Institutions such as the Stanford Research Institute conducted experiments on remote viewing and psychic spying, involving figures like Ingo Swann and Uri Geller. Despite public skepticism and disinformation, many scientists privately accepted paranormal phenomena, reflecting a militarization of the supernatural rooted in Nazi occult legacies.
Anyone seeking understanding of the dark spiritual invasion of these times so near the end of the Age of Grace will find enlightenment through this extraordinary volume. I wholeheartedly recommend it to you.

Call to Prayer!
Although I have no inside information, of course, I feel impressed tonight to appeal to all of you to join me in continual prayer for Israel and the Israel Defense Forces as they fight on to wind down and win the Hamas War in the Gaza Strip.
Reports are that 20 live hostages remain, nearing two years in captivity. I don’t operate on emotion, but it feels like a hostage rescue attempt might be in the offing. If it is, and is implemented, the IDF will need a miraculous intervention by the Lord to be successful. The Hamas devils have orders to kill the hostages if the Israelis get close.
Most Merciful Father, who watches over His People, reveal your power and majesty and give your warriors favor as they engage the satanic forces that have the hostages in their grip. Go before the IDF, clearing the way. Confuse the enemy. Allow your magnificent soldiers, an ember of sacred fire, to confound the enemy and save the hostages and return them home to their families. We ask this of you, Father, our True Protector and the Author and Finisher of our Faith. Amen!
End-times Israel Evidence Mounts
Most serious students of Bible prophecy—at least those who study from the pre-Trib perspective—agree that the most prominent indicator of where we are on God’s prophetic timeline is God’s chosen nation, Israel.
Again, the prophet Zechariah gives a clue to this being the case:
The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. (Zechariah 12:1–3)
Here, God’s Word, through the prophet, states that ultimately God Himself will bring all nations to account by presenting Israel as an offense that will bring their wrath against His chosen nation.
This hatred for Israel–for the Jew—will be manifest in the eyes of all God’s creation as time moves forward. The nations, infected with the sin-spawned reprobate mindset inflicted by the father of lies, Satan, will seek to destroy God’s chosen nation and people.
Jesus spoke to this prophecy while on the Mount of Olives answering His disciple’s question: “What will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” (Matthew 24:3).
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. (Matthew 24:9–10)
I believe that while Israel and the Jews have been hated and persecuted through the eons of time, the above prophecies speak specifically to the conditions when Christ’s return is nearing.
I have wondered why the Lord said: “And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”
While the reason He said this might be different than I imagine, I’ve concluded that it might have at least something to do with what we see now in the United States of America.
Why do most Jews in the big blue cities seem to join with the leftist, radical Muslim rants against Israel and even the Jews as a race? This is a mind-bender—or maybe a Spirit-bender matter. Israel-hating ideological evil infects even the Jewish people themselves. So much so that they will come against, or betray, their own race just to join the madness that seeks to wipe Israel off the map of the world.
This reflects Jesus’ words about the time when everything moves toward the era of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30: 7)–a period Jesus said will be the worst in all of human history (Matthew 24:21).
It appears, according to hourly news, that the world today is well into that powerful movement towards the fulfillment of Christ’s prophecy that Israel and the Jews would face great persecution—even greater than that of Hitler’s Holocaust. Here are some examples of the build-up toward that time of Jacob’s trouble.
“Fine Scholar”: UC Berkeley chancellor praises professor who expressed solidarity with Oct. 7 attacks
Richard K. Lyons, who assumed the chancellorship in July 2024, issued the unmitigated praise while being questioned by members of the House of Representatives Committee on Education and the Workforce, which summoned him and the chief administrators of two other major universities to interrogate their handling of the campus anti-Semitism crisis.
Ontario teacher called six-year-old student “half-human” for having a Jewish parent
An Ontario teacher referred to a six-year-old student as “half-human” for having a Jewish parent. This is only one incident among many that are happening in Ontario, home to 30,000 Jewish children.
“Kill all Jews”—Beloved children’s character goes off script, calls for genocide of Jews
On Sunday, the official X account of Elmo, a Muppet character from the television show Sesame Street, was hacked and used to post anti-Jewish, anti-Trump, and Jeffrey Epstein-related posts. “Kill all Jews,” one post read. “Elmo says ALL JEWS SHOULD DIE. F*** Jews,” read another.
An Israeli nuclear strike on Yemen won’t stop us: Houthi official
A senior Houthi official confirmed that the Yemen-based terror group will continue attacking Israel even after the fighting in Gaza ends, pledging that it is fully committed to destroying the Jewish state.
Iran targeting UK Jews for abduction, assassination, intel panel reports
A July 10 report by the British parliamentary committee that oversees the United Kingdom’s intelligence agencies, including Mi5 and Mi6, revealed that Iran is targeting British Jews for killing and kidnapping in the U.K. Intelligence agencies told the Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament that physical threats by Iranian Intelligence Services (IIS) against U.K.-based individuals has “significantly increased recently both in pace and with regard to the number of threats.”
These headlines were posted on Rapture Ready News July 14 through July 16 of this year. Many more such anti-Israel, anti-Semitic news items flow across my attention daily, as I’m sure they come before your eyes constantly.
The evidence that we are nearing the time of the Tribulation era shouldn’t be missed by those who look up in anticipation of the “Blessed Hope.” Israel is at the heart of the signals the Lord Jesus Christ gave us to observe. That evidence couldn’t be more blatant.
Here’s what Jesus told us to do as we observe the end times:
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for our redemption draweth nigh. (Luke 21:28)
Big Brotherism
We’re witnessing an assault—including that of the most violent sort—by communist-style revolutionary evil in America. It all smacks of being directly out of the Karl Marx playbook. The young candidate for mayor of New York City, who has basically sewn up the Democrat nomination, is currently the chief archetype example of this radical leftist assault.
Marxism, communism, Nazism, fascism…these evoke thoughts of tyrants and dictatorships. Well, Marxism and communism might be wishful utopianism to some within political ideology circles in these days of movement toward socialism. But for the most part, thoughts of these isms generate study-related memories of the likes of Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Mussolini, and other humanity-destroying beasts.
The matters involved within the recollection include revolution, war, torture, gulag, genocide—any systems of governing that should be avoided at all costs. Fear and apprehension over dictatorships were the very reason the United States Constitution was written. Specifically, the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the Constitution, spells out the rights of each citizen that government cannot usurp. These rights, the shapers of the Constitution meticulously wrote, are “inalienable.” That is, they are given by God, thus can’t be taken away by people in government.
Another ism has developed that threatens our inalienable rights. Its ominous construction continues at a torrid pace and will ultimately be worse than any of the aforementioned isms. As a matter of fact, it will be all those tyrannical nightmares rolled up into one system of utter decimation. George Orwell and Aldous Huxley, authors of well-known novels, played upon fear of such governments in their futuristic books, 1984 and Brave New World. The swiftness of developments lately makes their works of fiction look ever more prophetic.
Orwell used London and Britain in 1984 as the genesis of a world of ruthless control. “Big Brother is watching you” is a phrase the author used with grave effect. It continues to be used by those who warn of the exponentially encroaching surveillance technologies. Again, Orwell’s vision was almost prophetic in the biblical sense.
A friend who is a well-known journalist in Great Britain emailed me a number of years ago with the following troubling, though fascinating, information:
I was putting together some slides for one of my presentations yesterday and discovered that Britain has 1.5 times as many surveillance cameras as China! We now have cameras that talk to people, bossing them around in the streets! They are being installed in twenty cities. They are also getting listening devices. Some places also have face-monitoring systems so they can scan for people the authorities are interested in.
The average Briton is now filmed about three hundred times per day! We also have camera cars patrolling the streets, filming whatever takes their fancy and harassing motorists.
We are years ahead of America in plans to put GPS systems in cars, etc. They also want even more speed cameras, speed-averaging cameras—you name it. All of them are being linked into one enormous grid. The records of journeys are logged and kept. As you drive down the main highways, your number plates are scanned every few miles. Our son and I spent a day in the control room where all this information is monitored—an astonishing operation, with screens showing all the main roads. The EU is now planning to store all e-mails, log every web page visited, every phone call, etc., which Britain has done for years.
My friend told me—has told the world—that cameras are trained on his home from right across the street, atop a telephone-type pole.
It isn’t hard to imagine what that surveillance system is like these years later with the exponential developments involving AI (artificial intelligence).
It’s just a matter of time until all of England is under a surveillance system much more sophisticated and intrusive than our 1940s author, George Orwell, could have imagined. All of Europe is following suit, and we can see developments hourly of evidence that America is coming into Big Brotherism’s orbit of control.
The whole world is on track for super-sophisticated tracking. And a familiar name pops through the inky blackness of cyberspace to make this a readily observable fact: google.com.
Who in the world knows as much about you and your private thoughts as Google? That’s the question Katherine Albrecht, radio talk-show host and one-time spokeswoman for Startpage, a search engine that protects user privacy, posed to American Internet surfers a decade and a half ago.
“It would blow people’s minds if they knew how much information the big search engines have on the American public,” she told WND. “In fact, their dossiers are so detailed they would probably be the envy of the KGB” (Chelsea Schilling, “Life with Big Brother: Killer Way to Slay the Google Beast!” WorldNetDaily, 1/27/2010).
Albrecht detailed how Google and other search engines gather and maintain dossiers on everyone who uses the service. Despite legislative efforts in Congress to regulate Google and other such intrusive cyberspace entities, the information continues to be released to governments—for example, to America’s Homeland Security Agency—when information is requested. It seems the Bill of Rights is cast aside, even with efforts to legislate against invasive intrusion. Such ability to collect data on their victims was merely the dreams of people like those in Stalin’s secret service and Hitler’s Gestapo.
Albrecht said Americans unwittingly share their most private thoughts with search engines, serving up snippets of deeply personal information about their lives, habits, troubles, health concerns, preferences, and political leanings.
“We’re essentially telling them our entire life stories—stuff you wouldn’t even tell your mother—because you are in a private room with a computer,” she said (ibid.).
Big Brotherism, of course—in our view at Rapture Ready—is another way of defining the ideology that is heading up the drive toward establishing the regime of Antichrist, found in Revelation 13:16–18. With the government groping for control in ways that totally disregard the wishes of US citizenry, more often than not throwing constitutional safeguards to the winds of political expediency, the ideology becomes ever more manifest through our daily headlines.
All of this shows how near we must be to the Tribulation hour—thus, we’re that much closer to Christ calling His Church to be with Him (John 14:1–3; 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17).
As believers in Jesus Christ and believers in God’s prophetic Word, and knowing how all this points to the any-moment call of the Lord to His Church in the Rapture, we should be ever more faithful in warning those who will be left behind if they don’t accept the salvation offered by Christ.
Here is the message so vital at this late hour of this Age of Grace.
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)
