they know where you are what you're doing is with with ai you know controlling it behind the scenes it's going to be an unbelievably powerful vessel for the antichrist it's all going

to be linked together yeah i'm sure you know yeah no pun intended yeah Yeah, one other article, The Guardian had an article this week.

I've been watching this a little bit, but it says, what is Ebola and why is the outbreak in DRC, that's the Democratic Republic of Congo, causing so much concern? And we hear about, you know, the next pandemic and, you know, that everyone knows something's coming.

But it says a strain of virus with no vaccine has potential to overrun response impeded by conflict and misinformation.

And it's saying that this Ebola outbreak there that we really haven't heard that much about is the fastest growing Ebola outbreak ever.

They're saying that as of Sunday, this last Sunday, almost 2,500 people had died, and the number of cases stood at about 5,000.

They've had some cases over in neighboring Uganda as well.

Where do you believe demons come from?

So let's join Mark as he brings these important insights.

Armed with AI and the advances that keep coming, which, again, we can't even imagine where this is headed in the future, and energized by Satan, the Antichrist will have the most powerful tools of world domination one could imagine.

Now, the Antichrist will look like someone who is omnipotent because we know from Revelation 13 that he and the false prophet will do great miracles.

They'll be energized by Satan calling down fire from heaven.

So he's going to look like he's omnipotent.

By using a lot of this technology, he can appear to be omnipresent.

And by using this kind of technology, merging all these things together, he can appear in many ways as well to be omniscient, to have all knowledge, to be able even to predict people's behavior in the future.

Yep.

What do you think the mark of the beast is, 666?

Well, I mean, I, I think it could be something just as simple as a, a, a tattoo or some etching that people have on their right hand or forehead.

Um, you know, we, we, we know that the Antichrist is gonna use all the technology that's available today, which is just, you know, mushrooming and accelerating at an unbelievable rate.

He's gonna use all of that technology to surveil people, to know where people are, to control people's lives.

And so all those things are, are, are kind of surrounding this, this control machine of the Antichrist.

But the mark of the beast itself, the word charagma that's used there, that's the, the word for mark, simply means a tattoo or an etching or something like that i- i- i- in, in its, the way it's stated in Greek, um, the Greek language.

So it could be just something as a, an etching or a marking on the right hand or forehead.

Right.

Why do you believe He wrote those letters to those churches?

Well, He's writing these letters because, you know, He, He's gonna give them all this information about the future, but they've got a lot of problems in these churches that, that are taking place a- occurring.

Um, they, there's, there's apathy on the inside in some of these churches, and at least with a few of them, there's some persecution on the outside.

Now, the, the Book of Revelation was written in 95 AD when Domitian was the, the ruler in Rome, and there wasn't a, an empire-wide persecution at that time of, of, of the, of Christians, but, but it was local and sporadic.

You know, the church at Smyrna is being persecuted, the church at Philadelphia.

Um, so there's, it's, it's kind of sporadic, but they're undergoing this persecution.

And so I think He's writing to them to encourage them in the midst of that.

And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, 'Come up here, and I will show you the things which must take place after this.'" Now, do you believe that's referring to the rapture?

So talk to me about what Daniel teaches us.

Well, Daniel, Daniel chapter 2, Daniel 7, also in Daniel chapter 8, talks about how there's going to be these four empires in succession that will rule over the nation of Israel.

And the first one was Babylon, led by Nebuchadnezzar.

But the Babylonian Empire was then taken over by the Persian Empire.

It's in 539 B.C.

They conquered Babylon, took over the Babylonian Empire, and the Persian Empire then dominated the world from 539 B.C. to about 330 B.C., so a period of around 200 years or so.

And then they were overtaken by the Greeks, by Alexander the Great.

So talk to me about the Abraham Accords and why in the book you call it a prophetic realignment.

Let's sharpen up.

Well, welcome back to The Daily Blade.

I'm Dr.

Mark Hitchcock.

I'm the pastor of Faith Bible Church in Edmond, Oklahoma.

I've been filling in this week for Joby and for Kyle, and I just want to thank them so much for giving me the opportunity to do this.

It's been great to be with you, and I've been blessed by being with you, and I hope it's been an encouragement to you as well.
