The most devastating weapon China could wield against the United States may not be a missile, a drone, or a hypersonic warhead-it could be a "kill switch" silently waiting in the technology we've already woven into the very fabric of our nation. And the worst part? We put it there ourselves.
Though the Digital Health Ecosystem has the intention of streamlining health care, it could shape up to be a globally harmonized tracking mechanism that plays right into the U.N. and WEF's plan. It could eventually mandate a digital ID to buy, sell, travel, pay taxes, or participate in the national or global public square. In the wrong hands, it's the book of Revelation in real time.
Gen Z's step back from hook-up culture is a start, but stopping there misses the bigger picture. The reasons for this shift - burnout, disappointment, and dating app exhaustion - aren't enough. True freedom comes from anchoring your life in God's truth.
The Christian worldview begins with the truth that all people-whether in London, São Paulo, or the remotest jungle-are created in the image of God, but separated from Him by sin. Secularism views every culture as morally neutral, equally valid, and untouchable. In their eyes, it is "imposing" Western religion to share the gospel with different people groups.
Why are social media platforms filled with videos of Americans complaining about grocery prices right now? Needless to say, those videos must be striking a chord, because some of them are receiving millions of views.
The Lord warned in Matthew 24 that "many will come in my name" -- and now, in our digital age, that prophecy has taken on an unsettling, high-tech twist. Across the internet, artificial intelligence programs are claiming to be Jesus Christ. They speak in soothing tones, quote Scripture, and invite believers to confess their sins, seek counsel, or even "pray" with them.
The battlefield of the future is no longer just a contest of soldiers, tanks, and aircraft-it is becoming a hunting ground for machines that think, adapt, and kill. China's newest creation, the gun-toting quadrupedal "wolf" robots, may be the clearest warning yet that the age of fully automated warfare is at our doorstep.
The damage, while significant, is not permanent. The West must resist the temptation to see this as the beginning of the end for Iran's radical regime. Rather than force the mullahs into submission, the damage is likely to fuel a desire for revenge. The regime responds to perceived humiliations with long-term, carefully-planned vengeance.
This week, many believers watched with a mixture of disappointment and reflection as the Temple Institute in Jerusalem declared that the five red heifers brought to Israel roughly three years ago are no longer considered viable candidates for the biblically significant sacrifice needed to purify the future Third Temple.
If everything is going to be just fine, why are thousands of stores closing all over the country? So far this year, the total amount of retail space that has been permanently closed has surpassed 120 million square feet.
