In January this year, the UAE made a shock announcement. It would no longer fund its young students to study abroad at universities in the United Kingdom. The decision was reported by multiple news outlets, each confirming the shocking reason for the pronouncement. An Emirati expert in strategic and political affairs, Amjad Taha, said, “The UAE will not send its students to become hostages of Islamist jihadist ideology disguised as campus activism” while studying in Britain.

“Speech that is lawful today can become criminalized tomorrow. This should concern every person that values freedom,” Räsänen said. “My case shows where this path can lead. Recent developments from the European Union, like the Digital Services Act, make European censorship a worldwide concern.” 

AI has become a part of our lives.  In fact, Mark Zuckerberg said that artificial intelligence might be better than actually having real friends! The word antichrist doesn’t only mean “against Christ.” It also means “instead of Christ.” And when we start looking to AI for wisdom, guidance, and even companionship—that is antichrist behavior, or “instead of Christ” behavior; you’re substituting God in your life with AI. Rather than looking to God’s Word, you’re looking to artificial intelligence.

“It’s so hard to face that you are disfigured for life,” Varian said at the trial. “No amount of reconstruction is ever going to bring back what I lost.” The case could set a precedent for other individuals who underwent gender transitions and are seeking legal remedies, and doctors may adopt caution to avoid legal risks with malpractice.

President Trump will serve as chairman and wield considerable overall control. It will help resolve conflicts globally. He has the sole authority to invite new members and appoint a successor.  Global peace seems to be their goal, though they will participate in other global duties as well. The immediate focus of the Board of Peace will be Gaza, though there was no word about Gaza in the charter.  A lot of Godless people seem to be in charge, such as Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Tony Blair, and almost 60 more movers and shakers. Most have a worldly view of the world and of “peace.”

From Washington State and Oregon to Texas and Georgia and everywhere in between, young people carried propaganda signs as they shrieked at passersby and demanded that drivers honk. One video from Oregon appeared to show Kindergarten children involved in the protest. Numerous schools pre-emptively cancelled classes so students could protest, according to news reports. 

It is heartbreaking to witness the bloodshed in Iran as the regime kills its own people en masse for protesting the country's leadership. Even with an internet blackout—meant to keep the world from seeing what is happening—videos have surfaced showing hospitals overwhelmed with body bags lining the floors. While the death toll reports vary, one thing we know for sure is that the numbers are staggering.

Many people today are honestly asking what the Bible says about being transgender. The Bible does not use the word “transgender,” but it does teach about God’s design for sex, identity, and truth. The Bible starts with creation, and creation is important to God.

In the hands of those who are selfish, those who strive for power and control, and those driven by wicked ambitions, technology can quickly become weaponized against those that are ignorant, unsuspecting, gullible, or powerless to stop it. Freedom of speech and expression can be censored, access to different locations and establishments can be restricted, and ability to purchase certain products can be limited, all because of something said, done, or believed that contradicts the “established” or “approved” policies and positions of those in power. To those who may think this sounds improbable or far-fetched, I would direct their attention to what has been happening recently just across our northern border in Canada.
