“We have a lot of gay men and women in our church and I pray we always do.” – Pastor Carl Lentz, Hillsong NYC

“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.” Romans 1:26,27 (KJV)

UPDATE: HILLSONG RESPONDS –  After this story went viral with hundreds of thousands of global views, Hillsong responded not once but twice today to this article. Read it here now.

Hillsong Church in New York City attracts over 7,000 energized worshippers every week. It’s pastor, Carl Lentz, has a half-shaved head, ripped jeans, is covered with tattoos and draws a celebrity audience of people like Justin Beiber and NBA star Kevin Durant. When it comes to the topic of same-sex marriage, however, their official position is shrouded in half-answers and obfuscation. But one thing is quite clear: they allow an openly and unrepentantly gay couple to lead their choir.

Josh Canfield, in an interview with Playbill.com, said this in January of 2015: ” I became truthful with my church. I’m a part of Hillsong NYC. I’m one of their choir directors. I also sing on their Worship team. They’ve been amazing as well. Nothing has changed there now that I’m completely out and with Reed. He sings in the choir as well.” source

Josh Canfield and Reed Kelly, are a proudly-out homosexual couple who preach the gospel of the LGBT Agenda. They became “engaged” last year and are planning a “wedding” for sometime in 2016. They feel no conviction of any kind for the lifestyle they lead, and yet, shockingly, they are allowed to lead the worship choir during church services. Pastor Lentz, when asked about homosexuality, had this to say:

“Jesus was in the thick of an era where homosexuality, just like it is today, was widely prevalent.  And I’m still waiting for someone show me the quote where Jesus addressed it on the record in front of people.  You won’t find it because he never did,” he said.

Well, if Pastor Lentz would turn down the Marshall stacks on his platform and open his Bible, he would find exactly where Jesus condemned homosexuality. All through Matthew, Mark and Luke, Jesus preached an adherence to the Law of Moses, as we see here:

“For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.” Matthew 5:18 (KJV)

And what does that same Law that Jesus commanded be kept have to say about homosexuality? Read it for yourself, Pastor Lentz:

“If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.” Leviticus 20:13 (KJV)

That God is against homosexuality is a theme that is repeated three times in the New Testament as well, so even the most least-read Bible student should be able piece together what the Bible’s ultra-clear stand on homosexuality might be. But this seems to be a feat unable to be accomplished within the Hillsong theology circles.

“And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:14-16 (KJV)

But an inability to understand Scripture is not the problem with Hillsong Church, in New York City, in Australia, or around the world. The problem is money. The Hillsong Church global corporation is a multi-million dollar cash cow that provides an opulent lifestyle for all it’s leaders. And the millions of dollars that now flow in from parishioners would come to a grinding halt if they ever started preaching Bible truth. The only reason why thousands line up to attend their services is because there is no conviction of sin, no preaching about Biblical righteousness, no hard truths from the Scriptures. What they get is a “christian” rock concert with strobe lights and massive video displays, so that the people who were out in the clubs the night before will feel right at home.

The Illuminati pyramid topped off by what looks like a huge snake in a circle, this is what your average Hillsong United “worship service” looks like. Do YOU see Jesus anywhere in here?

Personally, I believe that a true Bible church should be reaching out to the homosexual community as it would reach out to any other people group who are in need of salvation. But as a pastor, when homosexuals attend your church, you have a sacred, sworn obligation to tell them that what they are doing is a sin that needs to be repented of. Failure to do so will result in the blood of these people, spiritually, being on your hands, and you will give an account at the Judgment Seat of Christ for why you didn’t preach the truth to them when you had the opportunity to do it.

Carl Lentz, are you listening?

Donald Trump’s Gaza Board Of Peace Surrounds Israel With A ‘Who’s Who’ Of Their Enemies Just As Psalm 83 Tells Us, Pope Leo XIV Is Considering Joining As Well

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Gaza ‘Board of Peace’ concocted by Donald Trump will surround Israel with a Psalm 83 cadre of their enemies including Pope Leo XIV

What is now being branded as the Trump “Board of Peace” is shaping up to be something far more familiar to any Bible-believing Christian who actually reads the Book instead of skimming headlines. This is Psalm 83 diplomacy—a multinational alignment of Israel’s historic enemies gathering under the language of peace in order to manage, pressure, and ultimately constrain the Jewish state. The Bible told you this would happen. Not with tanks first, not with missiles first. but with crafty counsel.

“(A Song or Psalm of Asaph.) Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.” Psalm 83: 1-4 (KJB)

Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates will each appoint a representative to sit on the panel of world leaders, their foreign ministers announced in a joint statement. Not only that, but Trump has also invited Pope Leo XIV to sit on the Board of Peace as well. Pope Leo XIV is currently evaluating an invitation by U.S. President Donald Trump to join his “Board of Peace,” an international body chaired by the president to oversee the governance and reconstruction of Gaza, the Vatican secretary of state said. If that happens, sell the farm, we’re out of here.

Psalm 83 opens with urgency because God seems to be silent while man is busy organizing. There is no battle described in verses 1–4. There is plotting. There is coordination. There is agreement. There is one consent. That word ‘confederate’ matters. This is not chaos. This is not random outrage. This is structured alignment—exactly what a “Board of Peace” is by design. And notice who is being “consulted” in Psalm 83 – Israel’s immediate neighbors and long-standing adversaries. That same geographic and ideological pressure is now being repackaged as a peace initiative that places Israel in the center of a ring of nations who do not share her covenant, her God, or her destiny.

Gaza is the doorway, not the destination. Gaza is the excuse. Gaza is the emotional hook. Gaza is the justification for global involvement. But Gaza is not the endgame. That is not about ceasefires, aid corridors or rebuilding homes. This is about national erasure of the nation of Israel. In the modern world, you don’t eliminate a nation by invasion first—you eliminate it by international management. You place it under supervision. You condition its sovereignty. You surround it with “partners” who all agree that Israel is the problem that must be solved. That is exactly what a multinational peace board does.

‘Peace’ is always the sales pitch, and the Bible already warned you how this would be sold:

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)

Peace is not the outcome—it’s the label. It’s the language used to disarm resistance, suppress discernment, and make opposition sound unreasonable. Hitler said he wanted peace in 1933, right up to the moment he wanted war in 1938.

Who could be against peace?
Who could object to cooperation?
Who could refuse international oversight?

Israel can—and that’s why Israel is always painted as the obstacle.

This Is How You Prepare The Ground For The Covenant With Many

Daniel didn’t say the final covenant would come through war. He said it would come through agreement.

And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.” Daniel 9:27 (KJB)

“With many” means multinational.
“With many” means celebrated.
“With many” means enforced by consensus.

The Psalm 83 Ring Of Fire

“For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.” Psalm 83:5-8 (KJB)

When you map this out geographically, Israel is completely surrounded by the Muslim board members:

  • South & West: Gaza / Philistines
  • East: Jordan (Moab & Ammon)
  • South-East: Saudi Arabia (Ishmaelites)
  • North: Lebanon (Tyre, Gebal)
  • North-East: Turkey / Assur
  • Sinai & Egypt: Hagarenes

This is not coincidence.
This is encirclement.

You don’t get there without boards, councils, frameworks, and mechanisms already in place. Psalm 83 is the pre-war alignment. Daniel 9:27 is the formal agreement. Zechariah 12 and Armageddon are what follows. The Trump “Board of Peace” is not a fulfillment in itself—but it is a pattern match. It mirrors Psalm 83 in spirit, structure, and intent: surrounding Israel with nations who speak peace while sharing a unified objective that ends with Israel diminished, constrained, or erased.

This is not anti-Trump commentary.
This is not pro-Trump commentary.

This is Bible commentary.

God has never needed permission from world leaders to keep His promises to Israel. And every time the nations gather to “solve” the Jewish problem, they only succeed in proving the Bible right—again. Psalm 83 is not ancient history, it’s a live template. And the silence Asaph pleaded about will not last forever.

President Donald Trump unveiled his “Board of Peace” at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, during a signing ceremony. Trump says the board, which is tasked with rebuilding Gaza and addressing global conflicts, would seek to work alongside the United Nations, despite his criticism that the organization has fallen short of its potential.

On this Midweek Update, Donald Trump backs down on Greenland at Davos and Yuval Noah Harari says AI will soon control the words of God

Donald Trump arrived in Davos today, 3 hours late due to a highly suspicious “electrical failure” aboard Air Force One, and instead of bringing the New World Order to its knees as Q and MAGA had predicted, he used his podium to assure Europe that the US military would not be taking over Greenland and that the punitive tariffs he was threatening would not be put in place. Thank God for whoever told him to step away from the ledge, but we’ll be back there soon enough. Yuval Noah Harari makes a prediction that AI will control the words of God, and we show you the viral video of him saying that. Lots going on in our Midweek Update!

INVEST IN PAPER: Antichrist Enabler Yuval Noah Harari Speaking At Davos Today Said That AI Will Take Control Of The Bible And The Written Words Of God

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

End times villain Yuval Noah Harari said today at the World Economic Forum in Davos that ‘AI will take control of the words of God’, challenge accepted

The enemies of God are out of the closet, bold and brazen, and today at the globalist World Economic Forum in Davos, one of our favorite end times villains, Yuval Noah Harari, declared that AI will take over and control the ‘words of God’ specifically mentioning the ones found in the Jewish Bible. Talk about a 21st-century version of “Yea, hath God said?”, Harari like Lucifer in Isaiah 14 is shaking his fist at God and literally daring Him to stop the AI takeover of His words. As we like to remind you, this world is preparing itself to receive the Antichrist, of whom Yuval Noah Harari would seem to be the forerunner.

The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalm 12:6,7 (KJB)

We have told you repeatedly over the past 6 years to ‘invest in paper’, why do we mean by that? Simply that since an EMP strike will render things like PDF files and e-Bibles useless in the blink of an eye, that  you should start building a library made up of bound, paper books with words printed on its pages in ink. Think about it. God could have used the most advanced technology in the Universe to preserve His words, but instead, He chose a book for His Book, hand inscribed or printed on paper. That’s what you should do, too. This is why we have a King James Bible Bookstore.

Israeli historian and philosopher Yuval Noah Harari on Tuesday warned that artificial intelligence could challenge book-based religions, saying AI is likely to take over “anything made of words.”

Speaking at the World Economic Forum 2026 Annual Meeting in Davos, Harari said AI is already better than many humans at organising and analysing language. As a result, he argued, systems built mainly on words could increasingly fall under the influence of AI. Focusing on Judaism, he noted that it calls itself as the “religion of the book” and places ultimate authority not in human experience, but in written words. He then raised a broader question about the future of faith in the age of artificial intelligence. “What happens to a religion of the book when the greatest expert on the holy book is an AI?” Harari asked.

Someone should tell him that the preserved words of God are sharper than a two-edged sword, more important than our necessary food, and will exist exactly how God spoke them for eternity. But I know this, after the Rapture of the Church when the strong delusion hits, it’s going to be Hell on Earth, a Hell in which AI will rule for 7 short years.
