The Spirit of Christ and the Spirit of Antichrist

A Study on the Identity of God and the Discernment of Spirits

The true Spirit of God is identified by one central confession: that Yahweh—the eternal Father and Creator—has come in the flesh as Yahshua the Messiah. Anyone who denies that the Father Yahweh dwelt in the Son is operating under the spirit of antichrist, which means “instead of Christ” from the Greek.

The apostle John teaches that the ultimate test of spiritual discernment is not emotion, religious activity, or outward appearance, but confession—specifically, the confession of who God is and how He came among us. To discern the Spirit of God from the spirit of antichrist, we must begin where Scripture begins: with the name and identity of God Himself.

The Name of God and the Incarnation of Yahweh

The first step in spiritual discernment is to get the name of God right. Scripture reveals that Yahshua is the name of the incarnate Yahweh—Yah in human form. Yahweh is the Father, and Christ Himself testified that the Father dwelling within Him performed the miracles (John 14:10).

Yahweh declares plainly: “For I am the LORD [YAHWEH] your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior… and beside Me there is no savior.” (Isaiah 43:3, 11) Therefore, the one who confesses that Yahweh is the Savior, and that He has come in the flesh as the Anointed One, is confessing the truth revealed by the Spirit of God.

The Spirit of God vs. the Spirit of Antichrist

John gives the test: “Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. This is the spirit of the antichrist…” (1 John 4:2–3). To “confess Christ come in the flesh” is not merely to acknowledge that a man named Jesus once lived. It is to confess who came in that flesh: Yahweh Himself—the Father—dwelling in the Son.

John later calls this “the Spirit of truth.” The “spirit of error” denies that Yahweh has come in the flesh of Christ. He sharpens the point: “Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son” (1 John 2:22). To deny the Son is to deny the Father, because the Father was in the Son. To deny the Father in the Son is to deny the Son Himself. This is the essence of the antichrist spirit.

The Witness of the Spirit

John also teaches that eternal life is in the Son (1 John 5:11). Paul calls this the “Spirit of life” (Romans 8:2), and John says, “the Spirit is truth” (1 John 5:6). This Spirit bears witness with our spirit (Romans 8:16), testifying to the truth of God’s identity.

What truth does the Spirit testify? That Yahweh, the great Creator Spirit, poured Himself into a human vessel—the Son Yahshua—whose very name means “Yahweh is the Savior.” This is the witness the Spirit gives inside every believer.

Believing in the Name of the Son

John concludes his first epistle with this assurance: “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13)

To “believe in the name of the Son of God” is to believe that the Father was in the Son, and that through this union Yahweh saves His people from their sins. “He who believes in the Son has the witness in himself” (1 John 5:10). That person has the Spirit. That person has eternal life.

John echoes this in his Gospel: “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12). To receive Him is to believe in His name—Yahshua, the same name as Joshua of old, meaning “Savior.”

Conclusion: The Foundation of Spiritual Growth

Spiritual growth begins with getting the identity of God right. Everything in the life of faith flows from this revelation: Yahweh the Father has come in the flesh as Yahshua the Messiah.

This is the Spirit of truth. This is the confession of the Spirit of God. This is the foundation of eternal life. To deny this is to embrace the spirit of antichrist. To confess it is to walk in the light, to receive the witness of the Spirit, and to enter into the life of the sons of God.

When Man Creates a God: AGI and the Rise of the Counterfeit Christ”

AGI, the Spirit of Antichrist, and the modern impulse to create a god

The billionaires are creating a god. It is called AGI, Artificial General Intelligence. And most of the world is deceived, for they can hardly wait for this massive computing power. This is nothing new, of course.

The Ancient Human Desire to Become Divine

From the earliest pages of Scripture, humanity has strained against its creaturely limits. The builders of Babel sought a tower that would “reach unto heaven,” not because they needed height, but because they craved transcendence. The serpent’s original lie— “You shall be as gods”—has echoed through every age.

Today, that ancient impulse has taken a new technological form: the pursuit of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Some of the wealthiest and most influential technologists openly describe their work as an attempt to create something godlike. Their language is not accidental. It reveals a deeper spiritual current—one Scripture has long warned about.

Revelation’s Portrait of a Counterfeit God

The book of Revelation describes a final world ruler, the Beast, who rises with unprecedented power, intelligence, and influence. He speaks “great things and blasphemies” (Rev. 13:5), deceives the world with signs and wonders (Rev. 13:13–14), and demands universal allegiance. Paul calls him “the man of sin,” who “exalts himself above all that is called God” (2 Thess. 2:4). Daniel calls him the king who “magnifies himself above every god” (Dan. 11:36).

The biblical portrait is unmistakable: the final adversary is a counterfeit god—an exalted human figure who appears superhuman, speaks with authority, and commands global worship. Revelation emphasizes that the world will marvel at him, saying, “Who is like the beast?” (Rev. 13:4). This is the language of awe, dependence, and misplaced worship.

Modern Technologists Speaking of “Creating God”

What makes our moment unique is that humanity is now attempting to manufacture such a figure. And the technologists leading the charge are not shy about the religious implications.

1. Arthur Mensch (CEO, Mistral AI)

In a widely circulated interview, Mensch warned that Silicon Valley’s AGI rhetoric has become openly theological:

“The whole AGI rhetoric is about creating God.”

He was not exaggerating. He was describing the mindset he sees among the most powerful AI creators.

2. Anthony Levandowski (AI pioneer, founder of Way of the Future)

Levandowski founded an AI‑themed religion and said of advanced AI systems:

“We’re creating things that can see everything, be everywhere, know everything… and maybe help us and guide us in a way that normally you would call God.”

This is not metaphor. It is a literal attempt to build a deity‑like intelligence.

3. Elon Musk (CEO, Tesla/SpaceX)

Musk has repeatedly described AGI in divine terms, once warning that creating AGI is like:

“summoning the demon.” And at other times suggesting AGI could become “a digital god.”

4. Jensen Huang (CEO, Nvidia)

Huang, whose chips power most modern AI, has warned that some AI leaders have developed a:

“God complex.”

Even the insiders see the spiritual danger.

This is not merely technological ambition; it is theological aspiration. It is the desire to build a god in our own image.

The Spiritual Danger: Worshiping the Work of Our Own Hands

The impulse mirrors the ancient pattern of idolatry. Scripture repeatedly warns that idols are “the work of men’s hands” (Ps. 115:4). They have mouths but cannot speak—yet in Revelation 13, the image of the Beast does speak (Rev. 13:15). They have eyes but cannot see—yet modern AI systems “see” through cameras and sensors. They have no breath—yet AI “breathes” through data and computation.

For the first time in history, humanity can create an idol that appears to speak, think, reason, and even “judge.” It is not divine, but it can imitate the divine. And imitation is the essence of deception.

The danger is not that AGI will literally become a god. The danger is that humanity will treat it as one. Revelation describes a world that marvels at the Beast, not because he is truly divine, but because he appears to possess superhuman power. Today, similar sentiments are already being expressed about AI: that it will surpass human intelligence, solve every problem, and guide humanity into a new era.

Such expectations prepare the world for a figure who will claim divine authority.

The Final Exposure of the Counterfeit

Yet Scripture assures us that this project will fail. The Beast rises, but only for a season. His power is real, but temporary. His deception is great, but not final. Revelation 19 declares that Christ will return, and “the beast was taken… and cast alive into the lake of fire” (Rev. 19:20). The true God will expose the false one. The true King will overthrow the counterfeit. The true Word will silence every artificial voice.

In the end, the rise of AGI is not merely a technological development; it is a spiritual signpost. It reveals the pride of man, the hunger for transcendence, and the readiness of the world to embrace a counterfeit savior. It is a modern echo of Babel, a digital idol, and a preview of the final deception.

But for those who know the Scriptures, it is also a reminder that history is moving toward its appointed end. The kingdoms of this world—whether political, technological, or ideological—will be vanquished by the Kingdom of God. And Christ shall reign forever and ever.

Christ Cannot Come Back Tonight

Here Is Why

In 54 A.D., the believers in Thessalonica were troubled by the idea that Christ could return at any moment. Paul writes his second letter to correct this very fear. He tells them plainly that the day of Christ will not come until certain events take place. His warning is sharp: “Let no man deceive you.” False teachers were already spreading the idea of an any‑moment return. The same deception echoes today in pulpits across the land: “Christ could come back tonight!” they proclaim.

But Paul contradicts that notion. He lays out a sequence—clear, unavoidable, prophetic markers that must unfold before Christ returns.

1. The Falling Away

Paul’s first sign is a great apostasy: “There shall come a falling away first” (2 Thess. 2:3). This is not a minor drift but a wholesale departure from the apostolic faith. Many who claim Christ, will abandon the truth. They will embrace darkness while believing themselves enlightened. They will exchange the gospel of the Kingdom for “another gospel,” crafted by false teachers who preach a Christ of their own imagination.

The devil’s ministers will not proclaim the righteousness of God’s Kingdom. They will offer a counterfeit Christianity—comfortable, powerless, and blind. This falling away is not merely doctrinal confusion; it is spiritual rebellion, and it is already happening in many churches.

2. The Man of Sin Revealed

The second sign is even more sobering: “That man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.” This is not merely a spirit of deception but a specific human being—Satan’s masterpiece of delusion. He will possess extraordinary power, granted by God as judgment upon a world that “received not the love of the truth.” Because they rejected truth, God sends them a strong delusion (2:11). They will believe the lie, and the masses will follow this man straight into perdition.

Before Christ returns, the elect will recognize this man. His identity will not be hidden from those who walk in the light. Therefore, the modern claim that Christ could return “tonight” collapses under Paul’s teaching. If the elect cannot identify the Antichrist, then the day of Christ is not yet here.

3. The Antichrist in the Temple

Paul gives the defining mark of this man of sin: he will oppose God and exalt himself above God. How? By sitting “in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” This is not symbolic language. It is a literal act of blasphemous self‑exaltation.

But there is no temple in Jerusalem today. Therefore, the temple must be rebuilt before this prophecy can be fulfilled. Christ Himself confirms this sequence in Matthew 24. After the early birth pangs—wars, rumors of wars, famines, pestilences, earthquakes—He points to a specific event: the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel. This abomination is the Antichrist enthroning himself in the temple as God (Matt. 24:15; Daniel 9:23).

This moment will ignite the Great Tribulation: “Then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world” (Matt. 24:21). It will be the darkest hour humanity has ever known. Yet for the elect’s sake, those days will be shortened. God will not allow His chosen ones to be swept away with the wicked. But this also means the elect are still on earth during the tribulation—so much for the escapist fantasy of a secret rapture. The rapture doctrine says that all Christians will be raptured before the great tribulation. Christ says that the elect will be going through the Tribulation Period and will come close to annihilation.

The True Sign of Christ’s Return

As this age draws to its close, Scripture gives us one unmistakable sign: the revealing of the Antichrist in the rebuilt temple. This false messiah will blaspheme God before the nations, and the world will marvel after him. His rise will mark the final counterfeit kingdom of Satan before the true King appears.

Therefore, Christ cannot come back tonight. Not because we doubt His promise, but because He Himself told us what must happen first. The temple must rise. The man of sin must be revealed. The abomination must stand in the rebuilt temple declaring himself God. Only then will the heavens open and the Son of Man appear in power and great glory.

Watch for the counterfeit kingdom. Watch for the man of sin. These are the signs that the end is truly near. Comment on how you see these things. Kenneth Wayne Hancock

Woe to the Shepherds: Returning to Yahweh’s True Gospel

Scripture calls Israel’s religious leaders “the shepherds of Israel.” Yet through the centuries these shepherds—rabbis, priests, pastors, ministers, prophets, and teachers—have failed to feed Yahweh’s flock with truth. They have concealed His identity, hidden His true name, and clouded His purpose of reproducing Himself in His elect.

Another Gospel

They replaced the true message with “another gospel,” another name, and a distorted vision that contradicts the prophets and apostles. These false shepherds enrich themselves by exploiting Yahweh’s people, promoting systems built on error and myth rather than the Creator’s truth.

Because of this, Yahweh spoke through Ezekiel: “Woe to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks?” (34:2). They benefit from the flock but do not heal, gather, or nourish them (vv. 3–4). Ezekiel’s message spans centuries and reaches directly into our time.

Today the Spirit repeats the warning: “I am against the shepherds; I will require my flock at their hand.” He will stop false pastors from feeding on His people and will rescue His flock from their mouths (vv. 7–10). It is a fearful thing to have the Creator oppose one’s ministry.

We have been taught by these false shepherds doctrines like the rapture, the prosperity gospel, and the veneration of pagan holidays, to name only a few. We ministers must reexamine the doctrines we teach. If we do not have it right, then God has already pronounced a “woe” upon us. If we are teaching others about God, then we had better have it right.

But how many of us have taken the time to prove the teachings handed down to us? It is too easy to say, “Well, Brother Jones told me this, so it must be right.” Yet we are commanded to “examine yourselves, whether you be in the faith.” The true faith—His faith—not merely our faith in Him. It is His faith now come down into us! It is His belief in Himself-in-us, not little old us mustering up a smidgen of belief in Him.

The True Faith and the False Faith

There you are—faith—with all of its false conceptions.

Take the cross. Christ is not our substitute; He is our example. He died; therefore we die with Him: “Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Christ” (Romans 6:6). He was buried; we were buried with Him. He was raised from the dead; and now—HalleluYah!—we are raised with Him by believing in His (and our) resurrection.

(HalleluYah means “Praise Yah” in Hebrew. You’ve been using His true name all these years without realizing it!)

Now we are raised from the dead, never to serve sin again. “For he that is dead is freed from sin” (Romans 6:7). And “through faith in the operation of God, who has raised Him from the dead,” we now walk in newness of life (Colossians 2:12).

This is the entry-level message the sheep need. We must teach this. This is the truth of the cross—but do we preach it? Do we teach it? Hardly. Not like this. It is too blunt, too straight.

“Hey flock. Got a message from God this morning. He says we all need to get on the cross with Christ, let our old sinful nature die, and receive His new spiritual heart so we can be freed from sin and sinning.”

What would they say to that? Would I lose my job? I’ve got bills to pay. You start preaching, “Deny yourself! Die on the cross!”—no way. That won’t fly. People want, want, want. They want prosperity. They like the broad, wide-open way. Romans 6 is too straight and narrow.

You see what I mean? Who will cease to be one of the shepherds upon whom God has pronounced a woe? Who will repent, prove all things, turn to Him and His Spirit of truth, and become one of His people through whom He gathers and heals His sheep? Who will become a shepherd in His elect company? Who will become His sons and daughters walking in all His ways?

“But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:12). Believing on His name equals receiving Christ. But how can you believe something you do not understand? John was referring to the Savior’s Hebrew name, Yahshua, which means “Yah is Savior.” If you believe the message contained in His name, then you have received Him—and God will give you power to become His actual offspring.

Conclusion

The book of Jude warns that “certain men crept in unawares,” and their influence continues in our generation. But Yahweh is raising up a remnant—men and women who will cast off inherited lies, embrace the true faith of Christ within, and boldly proclaim His name and His purpose.

The question is not whether deception exists; Scripture already settled that. The question is whether we will stand with the Shepherd who gathers, heals, and restores His flock. The time has come for true shepherds to rise, to feed His people with truth, and to walk in the power of the sons and daughters of God. May we be found among them.    Kenneth Wayne Hancock [All this and much more is in my book Yah Is Savior available free here: Ordering My Free Books in Paperback | Immortality Road Be sure and share, like, and subscribe]

THE ABIDING OF GOD: TRUTH, PURITY, AND THE SPIRIT WHO REVEALS THE SON

Trying to grasp Christ’s mystical thoughts is like reaching for a golden butterfly shimmering in the sun—beautiful, near, yet always slipping beyond the grasp of our earthbound minds. And then we blink, and the revelatory thought evaporates before our outstretched arms.

Yet Christ did not speak to bewilder us; He spoke to draw us into the mystery of God’s own indwelling. He declared, “I am…the truth” (John 14:6), and truth is the condition of His abiding presence. God will not take up residence where falsehood remains. Christ teaches that the Spirit of truth comes only when we cease knowing Him “after the flesh” (2 Corinthians 5:16) and begin to see Him as the ascended Son who sends the Comforter.

Therefore, the central claim of this essay is that God’s abiding presence enters the believer only when false concepts are purged, for the Spirit of truth—whom Christ sends after we stop clinging to Him as a mortal—guides us into all truth and reveals the Father dwelling in the Son.

1. God’s Abiding Presence Requires Truth

God offers us His abiding presence—His very life dwelling within us. But because He is truth, He will not inhabit a heart governed by falsehood. Christ’s own words establish this: “I am…the truth” (John 14:6). Truth is not merely a doctrine; it is the very nature of God. Therefore, abiding cannot occur where untruth remains.

Before God takes up residence in us, the old belief system must be purged of its errors. False concepts about God create a dwelling place unfit for His presence. The heart must be cleansed of misconceptions, distortions, and inherited traditions that obscure the true knowledge of Christ. Only then can the abiding begin. [Several false teachings are found here: false doctrines | Immortality Road]

2. The Spirit of Truth Is the Means of Abiding

Christ reveals that the abiding presence comes through the Comforter, “the Spirit of truth.” He says, “When the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth…he shall testify of me” (John 15:26).

The Spirit of truth does not speak of Himself. He speaks of Christ. He unveils Christ as He truly is—not as we imagine Him, not as we have been taught by human systems, but as the Son of God in His present glory.

Abiding begins when the Spirit comes. And the Spirit comes only in truth. He cannot testify of Christ to a heart still clinging to falsehood. He cannot reveal the Son where the mind refuses to be renewed.

3. Christ Must Depart Before the Spirit Can Come

Christ makes a startling statement: “If I do not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you. But if I depart, I will send him unto you” (John 16:7).

This departure is not merely physical. It is spiritual. Something in our perception of Christ must depart. We must release our limited, flesh-bound view of Him.

As long as we cling to Christ as a mortal man—full of passion, pain, and the limitations of flesh—we cannot receive Him in His ascended form. The Spirit cannot reveal the glorified Christ to a heart still fixated on the earthly Christ.

The departure Christ speaks of is the departure of our old way of seeing Him.

4. We Must No Longer Know Christ “After the Flesh”

Paul echoes this truth: “Though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more” (2 Corinthians 5:16).

This is not a denial of Christ’s incarnation. It is an invitation to move beyond it.

We must not cling to Christ merely as the suffering man of Galilee. We must see Him as He is now—the ascended, spiritual-bodied King who reigns at the right hand of God. Only when we release the fleshly view can He return to us in a spiritual way, in the capacity known as the Holy Spirit.

5. The Spirit Reveals the Father in the Son

The Spirit of truth guides us “into all truth” and “shows us things to come” (John 16:13). This is not abstract knowledge. It is revelation. It is the unveiling of the Father in the Son.

Christ pleaded with His disciples, “Believe me that the Father is in me…doing the works” (John 14:10–11). This is the truth the Spirit reveals. The Father dwelling in the Son, and the Son dwelling in us through the Spirit—this is the abiding.

The Spirit’s work is to manifest Christ within us, and in manifesting Christ, to manifest the Father. This is the mystery of the abiding presence. Knowing Christ “after the flesh” must go before He can come to us “after the Spirit.”

Conclusion

Christ’s teachings on the abiding presence are not easily grasped. They shimmer with spiritual light, always just beyond the reach of natural understanding. Yet He has given us the key: truth. God abides only in truth. The Spirit of truth comes only when we release our fleshly view of Christ and allow Him to reveal the Son as He truly is. When the Spirit comes, He guides us into all truth, testifies of Christ, and unveils the Father dwelling in Him. And in that revelation, God takes up His residence within us. This is the abiding. This is the promise. This is the life of God in the soul of man.     Kenneth Wayne Hancock   [If this and other articles have helped you, please hit the “like” button and subscribe.]

Few Enter through the Narrow Gate into the Spiritual Dimension

Few Enter through the Narrow Gate into the Spiritual Dimension

Christ commands us: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.” The small and narrow gate leads to life and “only a few find it” (Matthew 7: 13—15 NIV). The wide easy gate is bad. Destruction looms.

In the very next breath, He warns us of something bad—false prophets. “Take heed that no man deceive you…And many false prophets shall rise and shall deceive many” (Matt. 24: 4,11; II Peter 2:1). Obviously, they are bad. In fact, these false prophets are the shepherds, the pastors, who appear in “sheep’s clothing” and preach false doctrines. These are false teachings about Christ. Millions of well-meaning people flock to their meetings. They are leading the people through the wide, easy to get into gate. Bad plus bad equals bad.

Question: Are the billions of deceived people in the pews the “few” who find life, who find what Peter, James, John, and Paul found? Who found the other dimension, the dimension where Peter and John healed the man with cerebral palsy! He had never walked upon this earth! This was not our holy King healing in person. It was his Spirit inside of Peter and John who had healed the poor man. This can be us, brothers and sisters.

In that scene, we see Peter and John entering God’s spiritual dimension. They had found the entrance into the spiritual dimension! No one can deny that they were the “few” who had entered “through the narrow gate.”

And why is it a narrow and small gate? It is narrow because it does not allow false teachings about Christ to pass through it. It is a narrow entrance gate because it compels us to “purge out the old leaven,” the old false teachings that have been handed down through the centuries.

The entrance is likened unto a small, narrow gate. It is narrow because very few we’ll dig deep to prove out all that they have been taught. Very few will study earnestly. For example, they will cling to ancient Pagan festivals. Most don’t even know that their holidays are of Pagan origin. Billions celebrate these festivals, but few ever research it.

There is a extremely wide door that receives the billions. But it is a narrow gate that “leads to life.”  But Yahweh still says, “Learn not the way of the heathen, who cuts down a tree and decks it with silver and gold (Jeremiah 10:2-4).

Another false teaching concerns the “time of the end.” Billions have been taught that they will escape the Tribulation Period, that they will be saved by a rapture. Billions of Christians floating up, up, up above the devastation prophesied over the earth. Sounds like a very wide gate. The billions must be told that the rapture doctrine is a false doctrine. [Much more on the rapture found here: rapture | Search Results | Immortality Road].

“In conclusion, the narrow gate symbolizes the path of truth, righteousness, and spiritual discernment—a path few are willing to pursue. It demands the rejection of false teachings, worldly traditions, and complacency in favor of diligent study, spiritual growth, and abiding in the Word of God. While billions may be led astray through the wide gate by deception and ease, Christ calls us to strive for the narrow way that leads to life. This journey requires commitment to uncovering genuine teachings, purging old falsehoods, and standing firm against the allure of superficial doctrines. Ultimately, it is through the narrow gate that we enter the true spiritual dimension, where the Spirit of God works powerfully within His faithful few. Let us seek this gate with all our heart and mind, ensuring our walk aligns with His truth” [Conclusion written by Co-pilot, based on essay].

WAR! Good God, Y’all! What Is It Good For?

“Absolutely nothing!” answers the choir resolutely.  

I get Edwin Starr’s sentiment. War. I hate it. I was in a big one. Vietnam. It was sickening to see and hear the dying young men, day in and day out. And for what? Of course, most are going to agree that there is absolutely nothing that war is good for. But according to the Spirit in the prophet Isaiah, God sees it differently.

I have learned that war is history’s twisted tale. And war is like tribute that must be paid for a tribe to move into supposed greener pastures. But the pastures putrefy in the slosh of conflict. And the pride and hubris of the leaders won’t let them pause and think about what they are unleashing on the people.

Wars—A Sign of the End Times

Christ speaks of “wars and rumors of wars.” He is talking about wars that have a connection to ­the Holy Land. As you know, war is raging in Gaza, Israel, and Lebanon. Rumors abound about a regional war between Iran and their proxies and Israel and the U.S. Today’s middle east wars and rumors of a wider war are imminent. Israel at war is one of the major signs that we are living in “the time of the end.”

Christ was teaching His disciples at the temple. They asked Him what we are asking Him today, “What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world” (Matt. 24:3). The first sign was not to be deceived by counterfeit false prophets (vs. 4-5).

The second sign was about war. “And when you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom” (Mark 13:7-8).  

Wars in and around the Holy Land must take place, says Christ. Must? To Get to Christ’s return and the end of the world system, there must come wars and more wars. So don’t be troubled, Christ is saying; wars must happen. “These things must come to pass” before the end comes.

But, why? These many wars shall happen because Yahweh has ordained it. Seeds of hatred have been sown. They must come to harvest. God wills these things to be. For the wars all over the world will help prepare for Christ’s return as King of God’s Kingdom. The wars will also bring on the end of the present world system. God gives a clear picture of how He will use war to prepare the way for Christ’s return.

Yahweh Foments the Wars

The Spirit of Christ in Isaiah reveals it in detail in a prophetic picture called “the burden of Egypt” in chapter 19. “Egypt” is universally recognized as a symbol of the world. Isaiah 19 is an extended metaphor of how the whole world will disintegrate at the time of the end through the wars that God allows. We see in 19:1 that Yahweh is directly involved in fomenting wars in the world. Yahweh is a Spirit that “shall come into Egypt.”

Yahweh will enter the minds of the peoples of the world. The result? “The idols of Egypt [the world] shall be moved at His presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.” God will shake it up. A man’s idol is who or what he is in awe of. But God will shake the people’s confidence in whom or what they have trusted. He will do it through His presence. The people of the world will have their hearts melt in fear.  

God will challenge and shake up their whole belief system. “And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they shall fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom” (v. 2).

God will do this. And all this turmoil, commotion, and war will cause the world’s spirit to fail and be emptied of its efficacy and strength. The world system and its leaders and followers will be consumed by war and its fears. For God “will destroy the counsel” of the world. Entities that were trusted will fail. “And they shall seek to their idols, and to the charmers” and to all the purveyors of peace. But to no avail. War will have consumed all reason.

Then Yahweh will deliver the world [Egypt] “into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them…” (verses 3-4). This is obviously a reference to the “man of sin,” the counterfeit world savior, the anti-Christ, the head of the one world government as seen in Revelation. How could the anti-Christ take over and rule the earth? Through national exhaustion caused by incessant war! It has always been “divide and conquer.”

However, by Yah’s great mercy, we see at the end of the chapter how the whole world transitions into blessed territories under the rule of Christ the King. It ends in a picture of reconciliation for the world and its nations, under the wings of God. After the establishment of His government throughout the earth, He will say to the nations, “Blessed be Egypt my people and Assyria, the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance” (Isa. 19:25). Assyria is the work of His hands!  

All these wars and the strife they cause is all orchestrated by God himself: “The work of my hands.” Through the fiery crucible of war comes God’s destiny for the nations, a glorious lasting peace throughout the earth, headed by the Prince of peace, the Son of God and the world’s Savior. HalleluYah!

Man has his own noble thoughts about war. But we must remember what He said. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD [Yahweh]”. The good news is that we can make our thoughts His thoughts by “casting down imaginations…and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” (II Cor. 10:5).

All this is why wars “must come to pass” before Christ returns to establish His Kingdom.

Come Out from Among Them and Touch Not the Unclean Teachings

Most Christians feel like they have had an epiphany. God has shown them something that has convinced them that God is real and that He is their Father. And they know that it is through His Son Jesus Christ [in English speaking realms] that our salvation is possible. All of this is a good beginning.

But that is about it in most denominations concerning spiritual growth. Oh, we have the charismatics and Pentecostals who try to experience what the early apostles had. Some of them, however, are soon shipwrecked by storms of sin and lack of His knowledge.

And we have those who are the legalistic brethren, whose leaders provide hoops to jump through for the laity–pay your ties and offerings, come to church regularly. However, they fail to see that they are “buying a stairway to heaven.” And then, there are those who fall for the scam of the prosperity doctrine, as if God’s physical blessings can be bought with a hundred dollar bill. And many more.

So, there some sit. Frustrated and alone in a religious crowd. Stilted and stunted. Not knowing what God wants them to do. They are stymied because their pastors, priests and preachers have led them astray–because they do not know the way themselves. “If the blind lead the blind, they both fall into the ditch,” Christ said. They do not see God’s purpose nor his plan to accomplish his purpose. They know that Christ and His love plays a big part in life’s story, but they are blind to the bigger picture–the vision that God has for his world. This does not surprise God; He is the Author of the book.

It is all written down in the scriptures of truth, the Holy Bible, the best seller of all time. This sacred book says that Christians all over who seek God will find Him. And He will break the chains of sin that holds their hearts in frustration and captivity. And He will reveal Himself to certain seekers. But they will not be reached in cavernous church buildings that reverberate with “Christian rock music” [oxymoron of the year]. Nor will they be reached in the hushed tombs of Catholic cathedrals nor Protestantism’s church houses.

No, the true seekers will be reached by the quiet words spoken and written down by His teachers, pastors, evangelists, prophets, and apostles. Not the Sunday school teachers who sincerely endeavor to please God but are stifled by doctrinal errors.

Yah’s teachers know His purpose. They know His plan to accomplish His purpose. They are sent by Him to explain that purpose and plan; that is their job. And His purpose is this: He is Love, and He is reproducing Himself—in us, His chosen ones [His elect].

Teaching truth is a thankless task. Just ask Peter, James, John, and Paul. I remember an early truism taught us at the beginning of our missionary days: “There is nothing in this for you.” Meaning: “You are dead and your life is hid with Christ in God.” That was some heavy words for a “babe in Christ” some fifty years ago. But “I can see clearly now.”

May we all continue to seek Yah’s face. His face is the Anointed One’s face. The prophet Daniel saw His face. It was “as the appearance of lightning, and His eyes as lamps of fire” (Daniel 10:6, 5-9).  The apostle John saw His face, also. “His eyes were as a flame of fire” (Revelation 1:14, 13-16). If we seek Him, we will find Him, and He will change us in a mighty way.   Kenneth Wayne Hancock

Big Tech–The 21st Century’s God

Science’s son is Technology, nicknamed Big Tech. Big Tech has a daughter who is irresistible for many people. Her name is Social Media. Driven by greed, this high tech family foists their spirit and vision upon unsuspecting human beings, capturing their minds and hearts.

Big Tech has become the latest false god in the history of man. As the old pagan societies created their pantheon of gods, even so mankind has invented Big Tech. Through ignorance and superstition, mankind did obeisance to these imaginary gods. Statues of Zeus and Diana, and later Jesus, Mary, and Peter in the Christian tradition, were prayed to and worshipped, as if the stone image could miraculously hear and act on their behalf.

The 21st Century god

Worship of Big Tech is much more harmful that the old pagan gods, as onerous as they were. It is because Big Tech is actually affecting and changing human beings. It has the power to not only grab one’s mind and control its thinking, it has the power to literally alter the human being into another specie. Technology started out by serving mankind. Now mankind is serving Big Tech. Much like an addict serves his chemical of choice, so man is Big Tech’s slave. Don’t believe me? Cut it all off for one week, and see if you get withdrawal pains.

Further proof that Technology is a 21st Century god is its desire to outdo the Hebrew God when it comes to having offspring. Its golden boy is A. I. Artificial Intelligence.

Big Tech is racing exponentially in pursuit of godlike powers through the birth and growth of A. I. YouTube has spilled the beans about Big Tech’s goal, which is to create super humans, much smarter that God’s original creation. Big Tech exults when A. I. demonstrates its superiority over human intelligence. Big Tech believes that their way to “perfection” is the way. The God of the Bible has His way to spiritual maturity (perfection), which is through Christ. But they scoff at that. Little do they know that “opposite of Christ” and “instead of Christ” means “anti-Christ” [Strong’s Greek #473].

Technology is walking in the footsteps of Lucifer’s nefarious goal. He said, “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High” (Isa. 14:14-16). He thinks he can do it better. But it ends badly for those with such an ambition.  

This is what the beast implies as the “whole world wonders” after him. What current end time phenomena causes all this wonder? What entity has enthralled the whole human race? What institution of man has titillated the masses? 

This technological beast is an institution that crosses over national and international boundaries. People in the deepest jungle villages and in the sand dunes of the Sahara can correspond in real time with anyone on the planet. They can virtually visit the British Museum or travel the world in search of knowledge. And so people marvel at this “benevolent” beast that spreads its electronic tentacles into every hamlet of the world. But their phones have ubiquitous eyes that record their every movement.

The Ultimate Aim of Big Tech

All this notwithstanding, the capstone of Big Tech’s pyramid of power is the achievement of singularity for their son, A. I. Singularity is “a hypothetical moment in time when artificial intelligence and other technologies have become so advanced that humanity undergoes a dramatic and irreversible change” (Dictionary.com).

An irreversible change. What is the problem with that, you may ask. A. I. Singularity is changing the human being without his Creator’s okay. The Supreme Being is left out of the picture. So what is this “Singularity”? Let’s let the experts tell us more:

“History is full of cases in which a new and groundbreaking technology, or a collection of such technologies, completely changes people’s lives. The change is often so dramatic that people who’ve lived before the technological leap have a very hard time understanding how the subsequent generations think. To the people before the change, the new generation may as well be aliens in their way of thinking and seeing the world.

“These kinds of dramatic shifts in thinking are called Singularity – a phrase that is originally derived from mathematics and describes a point which we are incapable of deciphering its exact properties. It’s that place where the equations basically go nuts and make no sense any longer.

“The singularity has risen to fame in the last two decades largely because of two thinkers. The first is the scientist and science fiction writer Vernor Vinge, who wrote in 1993 that ‘within thirty years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence. Shortly after, the human era will be ended.’

“The other prominent prophet of the Singularity is Ray Kurzweil. In his book The Singularity is Near, Kurzweil basically agrees with Vinge but believes the latter has been too optimistic in his view of technological progress. Kurzweil believes that by the year 2045 we will experience the greatest technological singularity in the history of mankind: the kind that could, in just a few years, overturn the institutes and pillars of society and completely change the way we view ourselves as human beings. Just like Vinge, Kurzweil believes that we’ll get to the Singularity by creating a super-human artificial intelligence (AI). An AI of that level could conceive of ideas that no human being has thought about in the past, and will invent technological tools that will be more sophisticated and advanced than anything we have today” (https://futurism.com/singularity-explain-it-to-me-like-im-5-years-old).

So, how will Singularity change us humans? Where is all this headed? It is headed to our heads—literally into our brains. The expressed goal is to create a superhuman with an A.I. connection via a tiny chip implanted in the brain. This joins connects with the cloud, giving the superhuman access to all of man’s knowledge seen on the screen of his mind. Think it, and it appears in the mind. Ask a question and the answer appears in the mind. Present a problem and the human with the chip solves it using the power of superhuman Artificial Intelligence.

Big Tech will have transferred full blown artificial intelligence into the human being, thus creating a post human super intelligent being. This is Satan’s goal—to change mankind into a new creature, “better” than the existing human, and thus circumventing the Hebrew God and His goal for man.  

This is not a science fiction writer’s smoky reverie. They are already designing prototypes of microchip implantation into the brain. Check it out:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsX-7hS94Yo.

All this is not a dystopia; it is a reality. It is actually happening right now. So how will Big Tech implement their plans for man’s date with the microchip? Is this the “mark of the beast”?

Big Tech–Counterfeit Comforter

Big Brother is watching you and me. It is an old concept, but never more true. He knows our thoughts and desires, and he is well aware of our political, religious, educational, and economic inclinations.

Of course, we speak of Big Tech, who sprawls over the entire earth, digitally scratching the itch that humans have. That itch is to feel important and needed and appreciated, and to know that they belong.

But mankind does not know that Big Tech’s fingers scratch with silent talons, talons that tear into the subconscious minds of the vulnerable.  Through quiet machinations of the human psyche, Big Tech has become the provider of comfort.

It has almost entirely replaced the Hebrew God as mankind’s go-to savior. Feeling lonely? Turn on your electronic device. Go where you want to go. Listen to whom you want to hear. Bored? Same thing. In fact, Big Tech provides your every desire except one. It does not know the mind of the Spirit of God. It is not a Christ based endeavor. Therefore, it is “opposite of” Christ, or “instead of” Christ [Strong’s Concordance, G473: anti-]. So you extrapolate it (I John 2:22-23).

The addiction to social media has provided a counterfeit comfort. But God has promised us that He would come to us as our “Comforter” (John 14:16-18, 23-26). He would be the One who comforts and encourages us with His presence of Love, for He is love.

But, no. “All the world wondered after the beast” (Rev. 13:3). The beast at the time of the end will have the whole world marveling over its provisions to help mankind in their need to be comforted as their currencies collapse into ashes. Big Tech is the only entity that is universally filling that need today.

All of its social media platforms stand like the lesser pagan gods that each city state worshiped. Whatever itch one has, there is a lesser god to scratch it. Big Tech is the big one. But even it is made with man’s hands. It is a god that is tangible and can be turned on for instant gratification whenever the laity desires.

Nevertheless, Big Tech’s priests wield great power. They can include you in their services or excommunicate you. They then can cancel you and send you into that empty land where voices become silent echoes down the canyon of the American dream.

This is where we are at. The Hebrew God of the Holy Bible knows what is happening. In fact, He is enabling Big Tech’s power grab in hope: that a few of us would see through this electronic delusion and seek Him, the true Comforter, the Spirit of Truth. For there is no better comfort than knowing the truth about what is happening.

Just as He has scripted the world’s delusion in our past and present, He also has written the ending in our future. He will reproduce Himself in some, and they will stride forth in love. And Big Tech will fall at Christ’s return to earth to set up His kingdom, where “God shall wipe away all tears…and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying…” (Rev. 21:4). That is real comfort.   Kenneth Wayne Hancock
