Military troops must immediately begin to get the COVID-19 vaccine, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said in a memo Wednesday, ordering service leaders to “impose ambitious timelines for implementation.”

The Pentagon is wasting no time ordering all active duty military and reservists to begin receiving the COVID-19 vaccine immediately. Makes you wish they had been this decisive and precise with planning our exit from Afghanistan which seems to have not been planned at all, and just kind of thrown together at the last minute.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

It’s only a matter of time before the government begins ordering the mass vaccinations of all US citizens as well, and who will be assigned to carry that out? If you guessed the Pentagon you would be correct, and guess what? That plan was created during the Trump administration.

Pentagon: US troops must get their COVID-19 vaccines ASAP

FROM THE AP: More than 800,000 service members have yet to get their shots, according to Pentagon data. And now that the Pfizer vaccine has received full approval from the Food and Drug Administration, the Defense Department is adding it to the list of required shots troops must get as part of their military service.

The Austin memo does not dictate a specific timeline for completing the vaccinations. But it says the military services will have to report regularly on their progress. A senior defense official said that Austin has made it clear to the services that he expects them to move quickly, and that this will be completed in weeks not months.

“To defend this Nation, we need a healthy and ready force,” Austin said in the memo. “After careful consultation with medical experts and military leadership, and with the support of the President, I have determined that mandatory vaccination against coronavirus disease…is necessary to protect the Force and defend the American people.”

Troops will be able to get their Pfizer shots at their bases and from their commands around the world. The Pentagon has said it has enough vaccine supply to meet demand. Individual service members may also go out and get any of the other COVID vaccines on their own. Fulfilling the vaccine mandate, however, may be a challenge for National Guard forces who are scattered around the country, and gather just once a month for their required drills.

According to the Pentagon, there are more than 1.3 million troops on active duty and close to 800,000 in the Guard and Reserve. And, as of Aug. 18, more than 1 million active duty, Guard and Reserve service members were fully vaccinated and nearly 245,000 more had received at least one shot. Senior military leaders have consistently pressed their forces to get vaccines through a wide range of public pleas, and via social media and other campaigns. But — as is true among the U.S. population — many service members have been reluctant.

Defense officials have said it’s critical for troops to get the vaccine because they live and work closely together and outbreaks could hamper the U.S. military’s ability to defend America. Military officials have said they don’t have specific numbers on how many Guard troops are not yet vaccinated, and the Pentagon only provides a troop total that lumps active duty, Guard and Reserve into one statistic.

Guard officials have said all along that it is very difficult to assess how many of their citizen soldiers have gotten a vaccine. And only now will they be able to begin actually tracking the number with more precision as Guard members report to their drill weekends this fall. Austin’s decision to mandate the vaccine fulfills a vow he made earlier this month to require it no later than mid-September, or immediately upon FDA licensure, whichever came first. His move reflects similar actions by governments and companies around the world, as nations struggle with the highly contagious delta variant that has sent U.S. cases surging to heights not seen since last fall.

Hospitalizations and deaths are increasing among the military. Over the past month, the number of service member deaths jumped from 25 to 34 – by more than a third.

“Our vaccination of the Force will save lives,” said the Austin memo. “Thank you for your focus on this critical mission.”

Members of the U.S. military are already required to get as many as 17 different vaccines, depending on where they are deployed. The requirements — which include shots for smallpox, hepatitis, polio and the flu — also provide for a number of temporary and permanent exemptions for either medical or administrative reasons.

Austin in the memo noted that the new requirement will allow for exemptions that are consistent with the current policies for all the other vaccines. Permanent exemptions include serious medical reactions to the vaccine, immune deficiencies such as HIV infection, and “evidence of existing immunity” by a serologic antibody test or “documentation of previous infection or natural infection presumed.”

There also are administrative exemptions, including one for religious reasons. The religious exemption is granted by the military services based on their policies, and it appears to be relatively rare. The decision is made by commanders based on consultation with medical personnel and chaplains.

Briefing the news media on Wednesday, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said commanders are expected to carry out the vaccine order with “skill and and a measure of compassion.” Service members who object, he said, will have the opportunity to meet with medical personnel and with their own leadership, to ensure the troops understand the risks to themselves and their teammates if they don’t take the vaccine.

Asked about specific punishments for noncompliance, Kirby said commanders have a “wide range of tools” to use. “It’s a lawful order and we fully anticipate that our troops are going to follow lawful orders,” he added.

The Navy and the Marine Corps said they have had zero religious exemption requests for other vaccines in recent years and the Air Force said there were few. The Army was not able to provide any data. A little over half of the U.S. population is fully vaccinated with one of the country’s three options, from Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson. The Pentagon decision only applies to the Pfizer vaccine. Moderna has also applied to the FDA for full approval of its vaccine. J&J said it hopes to do so later this year. READ MORE

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: The First International Congress of Noahides In Jerusalem Will Prepare The Jews To Receive The Coming Biblical Antichrist

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The First International Noahide Congress Will Gather Six Continents In Jerusalem To Build A Unified Global Religious Movement Preparing For Antichrist

For years, NTEB has warned that the Seven Noahide Laws will provide the religious and judicial framework necessary to unite the nations under a counterfeit system of morality without Jesus Christ. Now, in November 2026, representatives from six continents are scheduled to gather in Jerusalem for the First International Congress of Noahides, and the organizers are telling us plainly that this is “a foundation, not a conference.” They are not gathering merely to exchange ideas. They intend to sign a founding charter, establish an international rabbinical court, create regional councils, adopt a unified syllabus, institute structured membership and build the financial machinery necessary to sustain a global religious movement. Christian, keep your wits about you, the man of sin is about to be revealed, and we are about to board Flight #777 on Titus213 Airlines!

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3–4 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, think about what is being constructed with the First International Noahide Conference. A One World universal moral code, one centralized spiritual authority, one international judicial structure and one worldwide movement—with Jerusalem functioning as its spiritual center. This is precisely the type of institutional scaffolding required before a religious philosophy can become a religious government. The organizers even declare that delegates will arrive as individuals and leave as “one movement.” The scattered pieces are being assembled, the authority is being centralized, and the machinery of worldwide religious administration is being put into place. The deception is found in what the Noahide system appears to offer. It speaks of God, righteousness, prophecy, covenant, morality and the world to come. It condemns murder, theft, sexual immorality, idolatry and blasphemy. To the unsuspecting world, it will appear peaceful, reasonable and righteous. But it offers righteousness without the shed blood of Jesus Christ, reconciliation without the Cross, salvation without the Saviour and a kingdom without the King. It is not atheism attacking religion from the outside; it is a counterfeit biblical religion attempting to replace the gospel from within. We are watching something move from religious theory into institutional reality. The Seven Noahide Laws are being given a charter, courts, judges, councils, textbooks, rituals, financing and a global headquarters in Jerusalem. The First International Congress of Noahides may pass largely unnoticed by the mainstream media, but we are watching this unfold with our spiritual eyes wide open. The organizers say “history is beginning anew” and that the “prophetic hour has arrived”. They say this is a foundation and not merely a conference. On that final point, we should believe them. A foundation is being laid, but it is not being laid upon Jesus Christ. Today we bring you everything you need to know about the First International Conference of Noahides in Jerusalem.

An Outbreak Of Malaria And Typhoid At The Glory Fellowship Orphanage Puts The Spotlight On Their Need For A Sustainable Supply Of Clean Drinking Water

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Help Us Bring Healing And Clean Water To Glory Fellowship Orphanage With Medicine, A Water Tank And Their Own Well

I knew something was wrong from the moment I got on my weekly video call with Pastor Dancan to do our Bible study. He looked a little under the weather, and I could hear the coughs of many of the orphan children in the background. When I asked him about it, he said they were right now dealing with an outbreak of malaria and typhoid due to not having a steady source and supply of clean drinking water. If you look at the photo at the top of the article, that’s where they currently get their water from, and it’s two miles away from where they live. Imagine your children drinking from that. Now come help us.

He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.” Proverbs 19:17 (KJB)

The children of Glory Fellowship Orphanage are facing an urgent crisis. Typhoid and malaria have already begun taking their toll, and the immediate need is $1,200 for medicine and treatment. These children cannot wait for better circumstances or a more convenient time. They need our help now for medicine to fight infection, care to restore their strength, and the assurance that they have not been forgotten. But treating the present illness is only the beginning. A 2,600-gallon water tank will cost $800, providing the orphanage with a dependable way to store a large supply of clean water. That tank would immediately improve daily life by giving the children safer water for drinking, cooking, washing and sanitation. It would be an important first step toward reducing the conditions that allow sickness to spread.

THIS IS THE 4 MILE ROUND TRIP THAT THE CHILDREN AT THE ORPHANGE MAKE EVERY DAY TO GET DIRTY WATER FROM THE RIVER THAT’S MAKING THEM SICK – THAT’S UNACCEPTABLE

The lasting solution is to drill a permanent well. For $5,000, Glory Fellowship Orphanage could have its own reliable source of clean water instead of depending upon muddy streams, unsafe collection points or uncertain supplies. A well would do far more than meet today’s emergency—it would protect children for years to come. It would bring dignity, stability and a measure of independence to an orphanage that faithfully cares for children with very limited resources. Lord willing, that’s what we will do, and here’s what we need to do to accomplish that.

Altogether, we are seeking to raise $7,000: $1,200 for the medicine, $800 for the water tank and $5,000 to drill the well. This is our opportunity to address both the immediate crisis and the underlying need. We can help these children recover from typhoid and malaria, provide a large supply of clean stored water, and then give the orphanage a permanent well of its own. This is what Christian compassion looks like in action. It is medicine for the sick, water for the thirsty and hope for children who cannot provide these things for themselves. Pray about what the Lord would have you do, and help us accomplish all three goals for Glory Fellowship Orphanage. We need your prayers and support, please come help us!!

If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this overwhelmingly urgent task of providing the children of Glory Fellowship Orphange with medicine and clean drinking water. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!

Iran Unveils Massive Tehran Billboard Showing Donald Trump In A Coffin As The Regime Sends A Chilling Message Of Defiance And Mockery To America

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Iran Puts Trump In A Coffin Before The Watching World As Tehran Escalates Its War Of Threats, Propaganda And Open Hostility Toward The United States

This is not merely a protest sign, this is a death threat stretched across the skyline of Tehran. Iran has taken the image of an American president, laid him inside a coffin, and turned the spectacle into a massive public billboard for the entire world to see. The message is designed to be unmistakable. Tehran wants America to know that the conflict is personal, the hatred is deep, and the regime is not backing away. He doesn’t want to do it, but Donald Trump now has no choice but to send in ground troops to finish this war he started 138 days ago. The “peace talks” just died.

The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.” Psalm 37:13 (KJB)

What makes the image so provocative is its deliberate theatrical cruelty. Trump is not shown defeated at a negotiating table or removed from office—he is shown dead, displayed and mocked, while hostile graffiti covers the coffin beneath him. This is psychological warfare dressed up as street art, meant to humiliate Trump, energize Iran’s hardliners and project defiance after months of military confrontation. It also exposes the fantasy that Iran has been permanently subdued. A government that feels crushed does not erect a billboard like this in the center of its capital. This is the imagery of a regime that believes it survived, absorbed the attack and emerged more determined to confront the United States. Tehran is telling Washington that the war of threats, symbols and retaliation is far from over.

America may view it as propaganda, but Iran intends it as a warning. They have not forgotten the strikes, the sanctions, the assassinations or the threats of regime change. The coffin billboard declares that Iran is no longer simply answering Trump’s words with words—it is publicly imagining his death and inviting an entire nation, and the world, to stare at it. Talk about your bold moves, this one incredible especially when you consider that it comes after 4 nights of air strikes and bombing from the United States.

For Donald Trump, the image is intensely personal. Iran has taken the man who built his political image around strength, dominance and intimidation and portrayed him motionless, powerless and dead. It is an attempt to reverse the psychological balance—to transform the man who threatened Tehran into the object of Tehran’s threat. The regime is telling him that every strike, every sanction and every promise of regime change has been entered into a ledger that Iran believes must eventually be paid in blood. But the warning extends far beyond one man. Trump may be the face inside the coffin, but the target of the message is the United States itself. Iran is declaring that American power does not frighten it into silence and that the cycle of strike, retaliation, escalation and revenge remains very much alive. The billboard is a weapon of psychological warfare, a recruiting poster for hardliners and a warning to Washington that Tehran is willing to keep this confrontation personal, public and dangerous.

This is what the world is looking at in central Tehran, not peace, not reconciliation and not a defeated enemy—but a regime raising the image of an American president’s death over its capital like a banner of unfinished business. The coffin is supposed to contain Trump, but the greater truth is that it contains the remains of every claim that Iran has been permanently broken. No one in the Trump administration seems to understand the first thing about the radical Muslim mindset, and until they do, victory for America, sad to say, will remain out of reach.
