Covid-19 has spotlighted the promise and peril of transhumanism, the idea of using AI technology to overcome sickness, aging and death and achieve eternal life.

Ever since the Tower of Babel, fallen man has dreamed, schemed and plotted a way that they could have eternal life apart from the One who created them, that is God. They don’t want to die, no one does, but neither do they care about or wish to be accountable to a holy and righteous God who has every right to demand that from His own creation. Transhumanism is the idea that with enough advances in technology, unregenerate man will eventually figure out how to be immortal. But that will never happen.

“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” Hebrews 2:14,15 (KJB)

It will never happen, because in order to do that through transhumanism, man has to somehow be able to leverage the intellect God gave him, in the body God gave him, while breathing God’s air, while feeling his heart that continues to beat in his chest only because God allows it to, and create an eternity that God is not allowed to be a part of. Did you know that the bible has a name for a place where that will happen? It’s called Hell. Don’t go. Transhumanism offers the illusion of eternal life while blinding you to the truth of the word of God.

A SHORT 5 MINUTE VIDEO PRESENTING THE REAL TRUTH ABOUT HEAVEN AND HELL

Looking Forward To the End of Humanity With Transhumanism

FROM THE WALL STREET JOURNAL: It sounds bitterly ironic now, in the midst of a global pandemic, but not long ago some of the most forward-looking people in the world believed that humanity was close to abolishing death. “If you ask me today, is it possible to live to be 500? The answer is yes,” said Bill Maris, the founder of Google Ventures, in 2015. Three years later, biomedical researcher Aubrey de Grey estimated that “people in middle age now have a fair chance” of never dying.

Eternal life through advanced technology seems like a pipe dream for a society that, until recently, had trouble manufacturing enough masks to save doctors’ and nurses’ lives. Yet Covid-19 may turn out to be just the kind of crisis needed to turbocharge efforts to create what its advocates call a “transhuman” future. With our biological fragility more obvious than ever, many people will be ready to embrace the message of the Transhumanist Declaration, an eight-point program first issued in 1998: “We envision the possibility of broadening human potential by overcoming aging, cognitive shortcomings, involuntary suffering and our confinement to planet Earth.”

Transhumanists, many of them associated with nonprofits and think tanks like Humanity Plus and the Extropy Institute, have long been driven by the fear that our entire species could be wiped out by nuclear war, asteroid collision, technological accident—or a pandemic. In March, as the coronavirus was spreading around the world, the science writer Tom Chivers observed that it proves the need for technological protection against such existential threats: “Humans could be around for a billion years, or more, if we don’t screw it up. Coronavirus won’t be the thing that kills us all, but it’s a bloody good illustration of how something could,” he wrote in the online magazine UnHerd.

People have always feared death and dreamed of escaping it.

But until now, that hope has been formulated in religious terms. Transhumanism promises that death can be conquered physically, not just spiritually; and the movement has the support of people with the financial resources to make it happen, if anyone can. Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are among the Silicon Valley moguls who have invested in life-extension research. In 2013, Google entered the field by launching the biotech firm Calico, short for California Life Company.

Transhumanists envision several possible avenues to immortality. Nanorobots could live inside our cells and constantly repair damage, halting aging in its tracks. Genetic engineering could eliminate the mechanisms that cause us to age in the first place. Such technologies are still out of reach, but transhumanists believe we will be able to master them sooner than most people think, with the help of superpowered artificial intelligence.

Ultimately, however, the hope is that we won’t just use computers—we’ll become them. Today, cognitive scientists often compare the brain to hardware and the mind to the software that runs on it. But a software program is just information, and in principle there’s no reason why the information of consciousness has to be encoded in neurons.

This may sound like science fiction, but it’s also the natural conclusion of the technological advances of the last 20 years. The internet has already made it largely unnecessary to physically visit places like banks, post offices and movie theaters, and the lockdown has given a big push to this trend. As our physical worlds shrink in an effort to avoid contracting Covid-19, our virtual worlds are expanding to make up for it. For the foreseeable future, many of us will be attending virtual schools, worshiping at virtual churches and socializing at virtual parties. And the history of the internet suggests that once things move online, they seldom move back—just ask department stores and CD manufacturers.

The pandemic is also exposing one of the biggest challenges that will emerge along with the transhuman future: new kinds of social inequality that will make the existing ones seem minor. During the months of lockdown, a sharp division emerged between people who work with information—images, words, numbers—and people who work with objects—shelving groceries, delivering packages, nursing the sick. The former can shelter in place and communicate through screens, but the latter have to venture out into the physical world, putting themselves at risk of infection.

As technology makes it possible to escape more of the burdens and dangers of physical existence, this class and professional divide could deepen into an existential one, with a virtual elite being served by an embodied working class. Of course, wealth and power have always offered some insurance against life’s risks. During the Civil War, Americans could pay a substitute to take their place in the draft; soon, you may be able to pay someone to take your place in the disease- and danger-ridden physical world, while you stay behind the safety of a screen.

A transhuman future in which mortality is optional may sound like paradise, but if it arrives sooner for some of us than for others, it could prove to be a dystopia. READ MORE

The Department Of War Announced Today The United States Military Will Undergo A Full Integration Of Google Gemini Agentic AI To Its Palantir Platform

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Palantir is already the dominant force in US military software and it will now be augmented by the addition of Google Gemini Agentic AI as an autonomous decision maker

As the Department of War rolls out Google’s Gemini AI across the U.S. military through GenAI.mil, another player stands quietly in the background — but its influence is enormous. That company is Palantir Technologies, the most military-embedded AI and data-fusion firm in the world.

“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)

A few months ago, we told you all about Memetic Warfare, something that most people had not heard of before. Today I want to add another little nugget to your knowledge base, because very soon you will be hearing this everywhere. Agentic AI. It’s AI that doesn’t just respond to your commands, it gives them to you. Scary stuff, to say the least. The Antichrist kingdom will not be run on typewriters, filing cabinets and fax machines. It will be run on autonomous agentic AI, global networks, biometric systems, and militarized enforcement technologies. Gemini Agentic AI is not used the way you use WordPress or Excel, this is not your father’s Oldsmobile, as the old marketing campaign goes. This is a whole new day.

Agentic AI is being trained to:

Evaluate situations
Predict outcomes
Execute tasks
Adapt over time
This is “agentic AI.”
An AI that acts.
An AI that decides.
An AI that will eventually be allowed to operate without human approval in order to remain “faster than adversaries.”

If you’re wondering where the Mark of the Beast and the Antichrist kingdom comes from, this would be a great starting place. https://t.co/nGYqO8AlKl

When that happens, you have crossed the line into autonomous warfare — and there will be no going back. Bible prophecy has two sides to it, on one hand it involves the opening of doors to bring about its fulfillment. On the other hand, it closes those same doors after you’ve walked through them. You might want to think about that for a year or two.

While Google provides the thinking engine, Palantir provides the eyes, ears, and nervous system to feed it. Together, they form a structure almost tailor-made for the end-times surveillance and enforcement systems foreseen in the King James Bible. Palantir’s entire business is built on the idea that every data point — financial, personal, military, biological, social, digital — can be ingested into one fused system and analyzed instantly by artificial intelligence.

This is not theoretical, this is who Palantir already sells to:

The U.S. Army
Special Operations Command
Immigration and Customs Enforcement
Intelligence agencies
Police departments
NATO partners
Foreign governments

Their flagship platforms, Gotham, Foundry, and the new Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), allow governments to:

Track people
Predict behavior
Identify patterns across massive datasets
Monitor communications
Analyze movement
Issue alerts and automated decisions

This is the digital backbone of a modern surveillance regime. The world has never seen anything like this, but Bible believers sure have, in the pages of Scripture. We are watching the infrastructure of the Antichrist kingdom coming into place piece by piece, contract by contract, AI model by AI model. Time is short. The Church’s departure is imminent.

Donald Trump Signs Executive Order To Launch Artificial Intelligence Initiative Called ‘The Genesis Mission’ Creating A Digital Tower Of Babel

Published

3 weeks ago

November 25, 2025

Geoffrey Grider

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump has launched The Genesis Mission to create an AI super-creature that sounds and looks like a digital Tower of Babel in advance of the Mark of the Beast

When President Donald J. Trump stood behind the Resolute Desk and signed the executive order launching what his administration calls The Genesis Mission, the world watched a seemingly routine announcement about science, technology, and competitiveness. But those paying attention — those who “have ears to hear” — saw something far more profound. Something prophetic. Something that looks less like an economic stimulus package and more like the blueprint for a digital Tower of Babel in the closing moments before the catching away of the Church.

“And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.” Genesis 11:4 (KJB)

The Genesis Mission is being heralded as the largest mobilization of American scientific resources since the moon landing. In reality, it appears to be the most comprehensive attempt yet to fuse artificial intelligence, federal datasets, national laboratory supercomputers, and automated robotic experimentation into a single, unified system of knowledge and control. A system capable of compressing scientific discovery — what once took years — into mere hours. A system whose goals sound eerily similar to the global technological regime prophesied to rise in the time of Jacob’s trouble.

“This order launches the “Genesis Mission” as a dedicated, coordinated national effort to unleash a new age of AI‑accelerated innovation and discovery that can solve the most challenging problems of this century.” read the whole order

The mission’s stated purpose is to accelerate discovery across biology, nuclear fusion, quantum systems, climate modeling, materials science, and more. In other words — to take the raw building blocks of God’s creation and place them under the predictive authority of artificially intelligent systems capable of designing, simulating, and executing scientific experiments without human oversight.

If that doesn’t sound like man attempting to rewrite the rules of creation, nothing does.

This is not merely research. This is re-creation — man attempting to simulate, automate, and accelerate the mechanisms of life and nature. It is scientific ambition dressed up as innovation, but it is spiritually identical to the rebellion that first appeared in Eden and climaxed at Babel.

The Abraham Accords, the Genesis Mission, is anyone else seeing the same pattern that we’re seeing?

The Genesis Mission Is A Digital Nervous System For Federal Power

For the first time in history, the U.S. government is attempting to unify:

all federal scientific datasets
all national laboratory supercomputers
all major AI models
all simulation environments
all robotic experiment platforms…into one coordinated AI-driven infrastructure.

This creature will be a living system with:

nerves (data pipelines),
organs (labs and supercomputers),
brain (federal AI models),
hands (robotic labs),
eyes (sensors and datasets).

This isn’t a program. It’s the creation of a national digital organism — a living, thinking, learning system whose purpose is to accelerate discovery, prediction, and control. If you’ve ever read Revelation, then you know what’s going on.

“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)

A Technological Run-up To The Time Of Jacob’s Trouble

The Bible tells us that before the Day of the Lord:

knowledge shall be increased (Dan. 12:4)
nations will clamor for power (Matt. 24:7)
deception and signs will multiply (2 Thess. 2:9)
a global system of control will emerge (Rev. 13)

How do you generate the technological scaffolding for such a system? You build something like the Genesis Mission. Of course, it will take all the ‘usual suspects’ like Palantir, Blackrock, DARPA, Bill Gates, Oracle, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and all the rest of the tech titans to make this a reality. But isn’t that the whole point and purpose behind Stargate?

Faster discovery.
Centralized systems.
Integrated data.
Autonomous decision-making.
National mobilization.
Global potential.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)

Pieces falling into place, one executive order at a time. As we often remind our readers at NTEB: prophecy does not require the willing participation of world leaders. God uses kings, presidents, nations, armies — and yes, technologies — to move history toward its appointed end. Revelation 17:17 says that God will put it into their hearts to fulfill His will, and that’s exactly what we see taking place right now.

An Outage On Amazon Web Services Literally Took Half The Internet Down Today Showing You How Open To Attack Our One World Online System Really Is

Published

2 months ago

October 20, 2025

Geoffrey Grider

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Amazon Web Services, a cloud computing service that powers much of the infrastructure behind millions of websites went down today, and here’s why that should really bother you

By now you know that today’s Prophecy News Podcast did not happen because of the massive outage this morning from Amazon Web Services, a cloud computing company that controls about half of the world’s internet traffic. They are still trying to determine if it was a cyberattack or a system-wide failure, but either way it shows one, big, fat and scary fact. If you want to control the world, all you need to do is to control the internet, and you’ll have it. That’s the memo.

“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11 (KJB)

We use Amazon Web Services as the core of our web traffic, and we count on it to deliver the millions of hits we get every month in a timely and efficient manner. But we are ‘small potatoes’ compared to large commercial sites, and government sites. Sites that control our national defense and homeland security. Let me give you something to consider that’ll keep you up at night.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has become a major power player inside the U.S. federal government, embedding its cloud infrastructure deep within the operations of key departments and defense agencies. Through massive contracts such as the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) program—valued at up to $9 billion across multiple vendors—and a newly forged $1 billion “OneGov” agreement with the General Services Administration (GSA), AWS now fuels the digital backbone of federal data, artificial intelligence, and military operations. Its dedicated GovCloud regions, designed to meet strict FedRAMP and DoD SRG security standards, serve agencies ranging from the Department of Defense to the U.S. Army and a host of civilian federal offices. What began as a commercial cloud venture has evolved into a strategic infrastructure partner for Washington, giving AWS unprecedented reach into the very systems that manage national defense, intelligence, and the day-to-day machinery of the American government.

Today millions like us at NTEB are inconvenienced with not being able to bring our regular content because of the outage at AWS, but Lord willing we’ll all be back up soon. But imagine what will happen when the internet is taken over and taken down because bad actors are staging a coup against the government, seizing control of the military and defense sites. Imagine what life will be like in that moment. It’s coming.

‘Half the internet’ goes down after Amazon cloud outage leaving millions

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The outage has also affected popular Amazon services, including Amazon.com, Amazon Alexa, Ring and Amazon Prime Video. The issues began shortly after 8am BST (3am ET), according to DownDetector, with more than 6,000 reports from affected US customers.

Another 1,600 users and counting are affected in the UK, according to DownDetector, a site that monitors internet outages.

Jake Moore, tech expert and security advisor at ESET, thinks the huge outage is likely due to an ‘internal error’ at Amazon, but said we can’t rule out a cyberattack at this stage.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, he said: ‘While a cyberattack can’t be ruled out until AWS releases its full post-incident report, there’s no current evidence of hacking, data breaches or coordinated attacks.’

DownDetector gets network status updates from social media platforms, reports submitted to its website and other sources around the web. It ‘only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher than the typical volume for that time of day’.

According to the site, the issue stems from problems at Amazon’s massive data center site in Northern Virginia (us-east-1), a critical hub for the global internet. In all, 75 per cent of the reported problems are coming from us-east-1, while the remainder are coming from two other US sites. READ MORE

Amazon Web Services takes down the internet

Amazon Web Services has now issued a further update, stating in a post at 10:29 a.m. ET that it is once again experiencing network connectivity issues in the US.
