It’s Not Just Facebook, Meet The 5 Other Mega-Corporations That Are Spending Billions To Enslave You In The Virtual Prison Of The Metaverse Dystopia

The Metaverse dystopia is real, it’s coming, and it will be a digital prision like Apocalypse II: Revelation movie showed you in the 1990’s.

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The tech giant, which changed its name to Meta last month, plans to invest $10 billion this year to develop products that support augmented and virtual reality — a robotic hand, high-tech VR glasses and sophisticated software applications, to name just a few. Analysts expect the company to spend at least $50 billion to achieve its promise of a virtual reality future in the Metaverse.

It is no coincidence that the new logo for Facebook Meta is a stylized icon of handcuffs, digital handcuffs for the souls who will be enslaved in the real-life Matrix known as the Metaverse dystopia. Students of Bible prophecy who like cheezy, low-budget prophecy movies from the the ’90’s will instantly recall Apocalypse II: Revelation that featured virtual reality glasses administering the Mark of the Beast in the Metaverse. Oh yeah, man, that’s how the snow blows. Welcome to the Day of Wonders, that’s what the Metaverse actually is, believe it or not.

“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJB)

When the Metaverse is launched, it will come with glittering promises of new business opportunities, wealth, fun and completely safe immersive online communities where you can experience anything you heart desires. But don’t you believe a word of it. The Metaverse dystopia is nothing more than a digital prison, a 21st century Tower of Babel, a perfect world without God where man is the measure of all things. The Metaverse will be home to Satan and his coming christ Judas. Stay far away and have nothing to do with it.

THE MILITARY AND THE METAVERSE: THE DAYS OF WONDERS IS HERE

The Metaverse dystopia is already here: 5 companies building our virtual reality digital prison

FROM CBS NEWS: But Meta is far from the only player. In fact, a half-dozen other companies are already building out the hardware and software that will be the next generation of virtual interaction — something Wall Street sees as a $1 trillion market. The companies include Google, Microsoft, Apple, Valve and others building out products for work and communication. Smaller startups are likely to join them as investors flood into the market.

“The metaverse is real and Wall Street is looking for winners,” Wedbush analyst Dan Ives said in a note.

These are some of the firms whose products Facebook will have to contend with as it seeks to put its stamp on the meta-landscape.

Google

Google Cardboard might be the most successful VR project in history. In 2014, what was then the world’s largest tech firm asked millions of people to strap their smartphone to their face with a piece of cardboard. Google says it shipped “tens of millions” of foldable headsets and Google Cardboard apps were downloaded over 160 million times. It wasn’t the highest-resolution, or high-tech, experience but the strategy helped introduce millions of students and aspiring developers to virtual reality. It also helped Google pivot from its previous augmented reality experiment, Glass. Today the augmented reality glasses are marketed as a tool for enterprise businesses, but when it launched Google’s expectations were sky high. Literally: The $1,500 product was announced by Google founder Sergey Brin as he jumped out of an airplane. Glass was essentially the guts of a smartphone with a small camera mounted on a frame of non-prescription glasses. The project flopped, but not before spawning countless memes.

Microsoft

Microsoft announced the Hololens mixed reality glasses in 2015. Rather than flood the consumer market with marketing hype, Microsoft quietly launched Hololens a year later as an industrial manufacturing tool targeted to a select group of enterprise firms. The $3,000 commercial suite shipped with a professional edition of Windows, with extra security features and software to aid application development. The second iteration debuted in 2019 and was slightly more expensive, but had a better set of cameras and lens mounts allowing for more precise operation, and offered a broader range of software capabilities including industrial applications. Current Hololens users include heavyweights like Kenworth, Suntory and Toyota, which uses the headset to speed up training and car repairs, according to Microsoft.

Apple

If you believe the rumors, Apple has been on the cusp of releasing AR glasses for years. The iPhone maker released ARKit, the developer framework for creating augmented reality applications for Apple devices, with iOS 11 in 2017. According to the tech website The Information, Apple held a 1000-person meeting in 2019 to discuss AR on the iPhone and two potential future products, the N421 smart glasses and N301 VR headset. Analysts now speculate that Apple is gearing up to release AR products in 2022 and beyond.

Valve

Valve’s Index headset is arguably the most robust consumer virtual reality product on the market. The high-resolution screen is smooth, and the controllers offer unmatched control inside virtual reality and gaming environments. The Index is also integrated with Value’s Steam video game marketplace, which means the device is already stacked with compatible content. It’s also expensive and klugy. The full Index VR Kit is priced at nearly $1,000 and to function properly, the headset requires multiple cables and sensors. Valve continues to innovate and experiment with immersive virtual reality headsets. Analysts expect the Bellevue-based game company to release a standalone headset to compete with Facebook’s Oculus Quest 2 soon.

Magic Leap

Although the idea of virtual reality was partially inspired by science fiction novels, Big Tech’s modern vision of an AR and VR future is directly inspired by Magic Leap. Founded in 2010, the company raised over $500 million in 2014 from companies like Google and chip maker Qualcomm. In 2015 the firm released a stunning video that purported to demonstrate the product’s technology. But skeptics questioned the technology and the eventual product was panned. The initial Magic Leap headsets were marketed at creative collaborative industries like design and advertising. Magic Leap shipped a refined AR device in 2018, raised more money and plans to release the Magic Leap 2 in early 2022. The company also plans to target defense, healthcare, and industrial manufacturing. READ MORE

The Metaverse Is The Days Of Wonders

What you are watching is a clip from the 1999 movie Revelation 2: Apocalypse. As with most Christian movies from that time period, the acting is so-so, and the production values mediocre. But what will BLOW YOU AWAY is watching how they connect the Mark of the Beast with Virtual Reality. This is what the Metaverse actually is.

Now The End Begins is your front line defense against the rising tide of darkness in the last Days before the Rapture of the Church

NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: The Apostle Paul Commands Us To Follow Him And Shows Us How We Are To Think Of And Act Towards The Jews And Israel

The apostle Paul commands us to follow him and shows us how to think of the Jews and Israel according to God’s plan for them

There is a great confusion in American Christianity today, one that threatens to tear it self apart at the seams. Many professing Christians have no idea how God views the Jews and Israel, and no clue as to His redemptive plan for them. We who believe are called, commanded, to follow the apostle Paul as he follows Jesus. My message today will give you a good idea of what exactly that means, and the costs associated with answering that call. Preached live this morning at the Bible Believers Church inside the NTEB Bookstore. Services every Sunday morning starting at 11:00 AM in Palatka, Florida.

“Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.” I Corinthians 4:16 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: Be Ye Followers Together Of Me

Be Ye Followers Together Of Me

“I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.” Romans 9:1-5 (KJB)

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.” Romans 10:1 (KJB)

“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.” Romans 11:25 (KJB)

“Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace; And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day. I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.” 1 Corinthians 4:11-17 (KJB)

Conspiracy Theory

Season 3 Of ’24’ With Counter-Terrorist Hero Jack Bauer Turns Out To Be A Treasure Trove Of Predictive Programming About Trump Twin Presidencies

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Season 3 of quarter-century old television hit ’24’ contains incredible predictive programming references to Donald Trump’s first and second terms

In the immediate aftermath of 9/11, a television show called ’24’ was launched, and in it main character Jack Bauer leads a counter-terrorism Federal agency called CTU to deal with evolving threats against the United States and its people. ’24’ debuted in the ashes of the fallen Twin Towers, before Facebook and social media, before smart phones and before streaming programming from Netflix and Hulu. In short, ’24’ is a dinosaur that’s now nearly a quarter-century old, and yet inexplicably contains stunning predictive programming that directly foreshadows Donald Trump’s first and second presidencies.

“Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” Isaiah 46:10 (KJB)

The first two seasons of ’24’ are pretty good, and here we are introduced to the iconic character of Jack Bauer played by Kiefer Sutherland, but it’s in Season 3 that our story today is centered around.

In Chinatown in Los Angeles, we see shadowy figures who have a biological weapon.
That weapon is called the Cordilla virus.
The Cordilla virus is released in the Chandler Plaza Hotel which is then put on lockdown.
The terrorist who has the virus in a phone call to CTU says he is doing it to ‘Make America Clean Again’.
Fictional president David Palmer is forced to do what the bioterrorists are making him do.

So let’s see if I have this right. A man-made Cordilla virus is released from Chinatown which triggers a lockdown and escalating body count. The fictional Chandler Plaza Hotel is an obvious reference to the Trump Plaza Hotel in New York City. It was in the first Trump presidency that we were subjected to the COVID virus released from a lab in China that put the world on lockdown, a lockdown initiated by Donald Trump. The man who is releasing the virus says he wants to ‘make America clean again’ in Day 3 between the hours of 7:00am – 8:00am. In April of this year, President Trump hosted the Make America Clean Again Gala at Mar-a-Lago. Oh, one more thing, throughout the entire season, fictional President Palmer is being forced to carry out the will of the bioterrorist who has the Cordilla virus. The president is not calling the shots, is not in charge, just like Trump is not calling the shots right now.

In 1991, David Rockefeller thanked the main stream media for attending his Bilderberg meetings he started with Henry Kissinger for 40 years and agreeing to conspire to never write about what they saw and heard. This is where predictive programming comes from. pic.twitter.com/cteI6NMT6I

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) July 12, 2025

Predictive Programming is an amazing thing, presenting you with ‘coincidences’ that are simply to amazing to believe, yet there they are. David Rockefeller back in 1991 thanked the main stream media for attending his Bilderberg meetings for 40 years, and for conspiring to never write about anything they saw or heard until the Deep State foundations could be put in place. Donald Trump in his second term is carrying out that agenda that has been in place since the aftermath of WWII. Everything we are watching now with Trump and the Epstein client list scandal has all been preplanned and prearranged.

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Could Weather Manipulation Companies Like Rainmaker Be Behind This Crazy Outbreak Of Flash Flooding This Year?

Published

July 10, 2025

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

What role do companies like Rainmaker and Microsoft play in the extreme weather and flash floods we’ve been experiencing this summer?

Recent flash floods in Kerrville, Texas; Ruidoso, New Mexico; Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and along the East Coast have made sensational headlines in recent days as tidal waves of roaring water has seemingly appeared out of nowhere. 115 so far are dead in Texas, untold number of deaths in North Carolina, 3 people died in Mexico. What role might chemtrails and cloud seeding play in all this? As it turns out, a lot, and that’s the memo.

“He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.” Psalm 105:32 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Augustus Doricko knew when he founded cloud-seeding start-up Rainmaker in 2023 that he’d have to contend with misunderstandings and conspiracy theories surrounding the technology. Still, he wasn’t quite prepared for the sheer volume of online fury he has faced in the wake of the catastrophic Texas floods that have killed more than 100 people and nearly twice that many missing. Doricko and his company, Rainmaker, have become a focal point of posts spiraling across social media that suggest the floods in Kerr County were a human-made disaster. An array of influencers, media personalities, elected officials and other prominent figures — including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) and former Trump adviser Michael Flynn — have publicly raised the possibility that cloud-seeding operations like Rainmaker’s might have caused or at least exacerbated the historic deluge. Is there any truth to all this? Today we take a deeper look into the weather, and the people lurking the shadows who insist on manipulating it for control and profit.
