BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH

Apostasy and Doctrines of Demons

Mardi Gras Draws Ire of Christians in Australia After Open Mockery of Jesus. Sydney was once again the host city for a Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, which ran from February 14 to March 2. The theme for this year’s festival was “Free to Be.” After witnessing one such moment, where a drag performer was pointing a spear at a person dressed as Jesus Christ, it is clear that some participants wanted to exercise their freedom to be blasphemous!

The Church of AI And the Techno-Utopian Gospel. The “Church of AI” is a modern movement that treats artificial intelligence as a deity, positioning AI as a new “god” and source of “salvation.” Its website (church-of-ai.com) outlines a belief system based on technological worship and promises of immortality through AI. The “Church of AI” stands as a clear antithesis to biblical Christianity. Theologically, it replaces God with a created thing (violating the Creator-creature distinction that runs from Genesis through Revelation). Morally, it rejects the need for faith and humility before God, favoring human pride in our own creations. And eschatologically, it aligns with the Bible’s depiction of end-times deception: a strong delusion drawing people into worshiping a false god and seeking salvation apart from Jesus.

Islamic Terrorism

Syrian Christians ‘hid under furniture’ to escape slaughter in Syria. Abu Ali, an Evangelical Christian from Jerusalem, compared the current situation of Syria’s Christians to the terror Israeli residents faced on Oct. 7, 2023. “This is a reality they face every single day. Except, there are no heroic soldiers coming to defend them. They’re on their own,” Abu Ali said.

Pervasive Perversion

Agriculture Secretary Cancels $600K Grant To Study ‘Menstrual Cycles In Trans Men.’ The United States Department of Agriculture announced they’ve canceled a grant worth $600,000 for the study of menstrual cycles in transgender men.

The Abortion Abomination

Planned Parenthood Kills 18-Year-Old Girl in Botched Abortion. Lexi experienced an amniotic fluid embolism (AFE), a life-threatening complication with a high death rate, especially in 2nd and 3rd trimester abortions. Amniotic fluid enters the mother’s bloodstream, which can lead to an array of serious and sudden reactions, including cardiac arrest and widespread bleeding.“ This young woman was nearly six months along in her pregnancy.” The later in pregnancy a woman has an abortion, the higher the risk. Did anyone tell Lexi about that risk before she chose to undergo a procedure that ultimately cost her life, along with the life of her child?”

Iniquity Shall Abound

Killing site in Jalisco, Mexico just the latest in a long series of gruesome discoveries. Prosecutors in western Mexico confirmed the discovery of hundreds of clothing items and bone fragments by a group searching for relatives at a previously known cartel training site. The gruesome discovery in Jalisco was hardly the first. Mexico’s official registry counts over 120,000 disappeared people. The discovery of such places has accelerated in the past 15 years as more relatives do the work the government often won’t to search for missing loved ones.

Last Days Traitors

In Portland, Oregon: Shots fired into Tesla dealership in string of attacks on company since Musk began advising Trump. For the second time this week gunshots were fired into an Oregon Tesla dealership amid ongoing protests and vandalism against the company.

Plague, Pestilence, and Plandemics

Iranian darknet site caught supplying deadly fentanyl to Americans. Iran found a new way to harm Americans. For 3 years, Nemesis operated on the dark web, accessible only to those with specialized browsers designed to mask identity/location. With 1,000 vendors selling narcotics, counterfeit ID documents, and hacking services, the site processed nearly $30 million in sales.

Weather Events

Monster storm across the US sparks threat of tornadoes and fire, killing at least 17. Violent tornadoes that ripped through parts of the U.S. proved deadly as well as destructive as whipping winds moved east into the Mississippi Valley and Deep South on Saturday, with at least 17 people killed and scores of homes decimated. The most fatalities as of Saturday morning were in Missouri (11). On Friday, three people were killed in car crashes during a dust storm in Amarillo, Texas. The deaths come as a massive storm system moving across the country unleashed winds that triggered deadly dust storms and fanned over 100 wildfires.

Wars and Rumors of Wars

‘Evil Empire Summit’ Set for Friday in Beijing: Chinese, Russian, Iranian leaders gathering to defy Trump, sharpen anti-US alliance. On March 14, senior officials of the three most dangerous nations on the planet – Communist China, Russia, and Iran – huddled in Beijing. Why? To defy U.S. President Trump, to strengthen and sharpen their anti-U.S. and anti-Western alliance. Also see ‘It could go very dark, very fast,’ Joel Rosenberg says in drastic warning about Iran, China & Russia.

Putin Issues US List of Demands to Achieve 30-Day Ceasefire. While the Russian leader said he is ‘for’ achieving a 30-day ceasefire, he has raised serious questions about what stipulations must be added. “We also want guarantees that during the 30-day ceasefire, Ukraine will not conduct mobilization, will not train soldiers, and will not receive weapons,” Putin said.

We can definitely see the foreshadowing of the fulfillment of Isaiah 17.

Tulsi Gabbard’s warning to Senate on Syria proves prophetic as Al Qaeda-linked regime slaughters minorities. The Director of National Intelligence’s warning of a terrorist takeover in Syria looks to be coming true amid reports that al Qaeda-linked terror forces aligned with Syria’s interim new president—a former al Qaeda terrorist—are being accused of massacring Alawites as well as members of the country’s dwindling Christian community. Alawhite is an Islamic sect that split with Shia Islam.

After violence in Syria, Israel says it’s prepared to defend Syria’s Druze. Israel has a small Druze community, and there are also Druze living in Israel’s Golan Heights, which Israel captured from Syria in the 1967 Six-Day War. The Druze are Arabs who practice an offshoot of Islam. PM Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz instructed the military to be ready to defend a Druze town in the suburbs of Damascus from Syrian government forces.

Israel strikes Hamas & PIJ targets in Syria in drastic warning to leader al-Sharaa. Israel struck a Hamas terror cell in southern Syria and a command center of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terror group in Damascus this week. The cell was planning to carry out terror attacks in the Israeli Golan Heights. Israel delivered 10,000 aid packages to the Druze community in southern Syria. Following the fall of the Assad regime and takeover of the government by the Islamist terror group Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), Israeli PM Netanyahu affirmed Israel’s intent to maintain all of southern Syria as a demilitarized zone.

Conclusion

Wall Street Finally Admits DOGE’s Work To “Detox” Government Is Critical, But Will Be Brutally Painful. “The global handoff from big government to the free market may prove slippery, but it seems necessary given large deficits and bloated debt burdens.” In other words, brace for lots of pain as Trump tries to fix years and decades of uniparty graft and corruption. And not just in the US: the handoff is global: the public-to-private shift is happening everywhere.

Things are worse than we thought. Although Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was referring to the U.S. when lamenting “things are worse than she thought,” it could apply to almost any area in the world at this point. The world is in a sad state of affairs, reeling from the spontaneous combustion of hatred, bloodthirstiness, deep turmoil, lawlessness, and utter chaos. Even the most talented negotiators cannot change the evil hearts of those who are committed to bring down the pillars of the world’s house, whether or not it means their own end, because life, to them, is just a convenient vehicle to destruction.  If they cannot achieve their goals, they will make sure that no one else can either.

But we students of Bible prophecy know what to expect.
