Prophecy Update #817 – We Do Digital Right | Bible Prophecy, End Times, and the Coming Cashless System

Are we witnessing the rapid rise of a global, cashless economy that will play a role in end-times prophecy? In this week’s Prophecy Update #817, we examine how biometrics, artificial intelligence, and digital commerce are shaping a world that aligns with Bible prophecy. As technology advances, we see clear indications of a future system described in the Book of Revelation, where a one-world government will control global trade through a personal biometric identifier.

The Bible foretells a time when no one will be able to buy or sell without a mark on their hand or forehead (Revelation 13:16-17). What was once considered impossible is now becoming reality. From cashless transactions to AI-driven commerce, companies like Yum Brands (KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut) are moving toward 100% digital sales, reflecting the technological infrastructure necessary for the prophesied global economic system.

What You’ll Learn in This Prophecy Update:

– How biometrics, AI, and digital payments point to the coming cashless society
– Why global corporations are pushing for 100% digital sales and what it means for Bible prophecy
– How the mark of the beast system could be implemented today
– What the Bible says about the seven-year Great Tribulation and the Antichrist’s economic control
– The promise of the rapture of the Church—why believers in Jesus Christ won’t be here for the tribulation

Signs of the Last Days – Are You Ready?

The resurrection and rapture of the Church is imminent. Jesus promised:
“I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the Earth.” (Revelation 3:10)

The world is being conditioned for a global system that will dominate during the Great Tribulation. But Christians have hope—we are not appointed to God’s wrath! Are you ready for the return of Jesus Christ?

Prophecy Update #816 – Trump & Temple

Prime Minister of Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, recently called President Trump the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House. In his first term, President Trump did something amazing for Israel. He moved their embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

There is a great deal of speculation that Jews in Jerusalem will take advantage of the Trump presidency in order to get the Temple built.

Those around Trump would like to see the Temple built. Speaking at an event in Jerusalem in 2018, now Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said there was “no reason why the miracle of re-establishing the Temple on the Temple Mount isn’t possible,” using the Israeli name for the raised plateau in occupied East Jerusalem where Al-Aqsa Mosque stands.

He also told attendees that Israel should take advantage of Trump being in office to do what they needed to do in the region, because there were “true believers” in Washington who would back them.

Right now it remains speculation. We are simply pointing-out that this is exactly what you would expect to read about in the news if you are familiar with the Bible and its prophecies.

Ezekiel 20:45-49 – I’ve Seen Fire & I’ve Seen Pain

The LORD describes His discipline of Judah and Jerusalem as a fire that will consume everything in its path.

Ezekiel was God’s 6th century prophet to the Judean Jews exiled in Babylon. A remarkable number of his prophecies were presented as silent theatrical dramas. When he did speak, Ezekiel frequently did so utilizing riddles, allegories, and metaphors. So much so that Ezekiel could say (in verse 49), “Ah, Lord GOD! They say of me, ‘Does he not speak parables?’ ”

Ezekiel describes the third and final siege of Jerusalem by the Babylonians as if it were a catastrophic forest fire.

Prophecy Update #815 – Hard To Swallow

Jesus compares His future death, burial, and resurrection to the experience of Jonah (Matthew 12:39-40). Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish, and similarly, Jesus would be in the tomb for three days and three nights before rising again.

I hope you saw the video this week of a kayaker being momentarily swallowed by a whale!

PROPHECY UPDATE #815 – HARD TO SWALLOW | Bible Prophecy & Viral News

What does a viral video of a kayaker getting swallowed by a whale have to do with Bible prophecy? In Matthew 12:39-40, Jesus compares His death, burial, and resurrection to the experience of Jonah, who spent three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish. This remarkable event foreshadowed Christ’s time in the tomb before His glorious resurrection.

While this recent whale encounter isn’t a direct prophetic sign, it does remind us of something undeniable: Jesus is alive, and He is coming back. Could God have a sense of humor and a flair for the dramatic? This Bible study and prophecy update explores the sign of Jonah, what Jesus meant by it, and why it still matters today.

Ezekiel 20:1-44 – National Inquirers: Idolatrous Minds Want To Know

The Elders of the nation of Judah come to inquire of the Lord, but they didn’t need a new message from God, they needed to obey what He had already revealed to them.

In our own lives, we may have experienced times when it seems as though God is not telling us what to do, where to go, and what to say. Likely He has already told us what we need to know.

Prophecy Update #814 – L.A. 2.0

In the wake of the fires in Los Angeles, some governmental leaders are suggesting we rebuild towns like Pacific Palisades and Eaton as ‘Smart Cities,’ with what they call a modern Marshall Plan. It sounds utopian, but history and prophecy suggest it would more likely be dystopian.

Control over the total population is predicted for the Last Days. There has never been a time in human history in which the government has had so many tools and the technology to significantly control everything about you.

In Prophecy Update #814 – L.A. 2.0, we explore the aftermath of the devastating fires in Los Angeles and the controversial proposal to rebuild towns like Pacific Palisades and Eaton as “Smart Cities.” While the idea of a modern Marshall Plan might sound promising, what does it mean for personal freedom? These Smart Cities could bring sweeping changes: no single-family zoning, mandatory public transit, and unprecedented government control over daily life. Could this be a utopian dream or a dystopian reality?

Bible prophecy foretells a time of total population control in the Last Days. Today’s technology gives governments tools to monitor and regulate society like never before. Could these Smart Cities be the stepping stones toward fulfilling end-times prophecy? Join us for an in-depth study of what the Bible says about the future and how current events align with Scripture.

Prophecy Update #812 – Normies

Join us for Prophecy Update #812, where we explore the foundational Biblical hermeneutic used at Calvary Hanford—a literal, grammatical-historical approach to interpreting Scripture. In this video, we discuss why it’s essential to read the Bible as we would any other literature, paying attention to the plain, normal meaning of words, while recognizing literary devices like metaphors and symbols within their proper context.

This method leads us to two key conclusions:

The Bible should be understood in its straightforward, literal sense.
Ethnic Israel and the Church are distinct entities in God’s overarching plan for humanity.

By interpreting the Bible this way, we embrace a “normal” reading that honors its genre, historical setting, and the intent of its authors. This perspective not only enriches our understanding of Bible prophecy but also strengthens our faith as we see God’s plan unfolding with clarity and purpose.

What does it mean to bear spiritual fruit in God’s vineyard? In this expository sermon on Ezekiel 15:1-8, we explore the sobering imagery of the wild vine. The 6th-century Jews, called to abide in the Lord, chose to become unfruitful wildwood, destined for the fire. This powerful passage points us to Jesus’ words in John 15:5-6: “He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered.”

In this study, we’ll examine two key truths:
Your Yield Depends Upon Your Yielding
Your Burning Comes From Your Burdening

This message challenges us to reflect on our spiritual walk: Are we bearing fruit through abiding in Christ, or are we weighed down by worldly burdens, heading for judgment?

If you’re passionate about deep Bible study, understanding Old Testament prophecy, or uncovering connections to New Testament teachings, this sermon is for you. Perfect for those seeking Christian sermons, Calvary Chapel teachings, or insights into living a fruitful life in Christ.

Prophecy Update #794 – This Mount Is My Mount

None of the major news outlets understand the true cause of the fighting in Israel that began with the October 7 attack by Hamas.

In May of 2021 Hamas launched rockets in retaliation for Israeli security forces entering the Al Aqsa Mosque after Palestinians threw stones and other objects at them. Hamas opposes any changes to the status quo at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.

The current war was started by Hamas in response to the arrival of the red heifers. These exceedingly rare animals are needed to establish worship on the Temple Mount. In January, 2024, a Hamas spokesman specifically identified the red heifers as proof Israel would soon try to destroy the Mosque & other Islamic buildings.

Prophecy Update #792 – Before Your Very Eyes

One day the Holy Land was under British control. The next day, Israel was a sovereign nation.

Over 2,800 years ago, the prophet Ezekiel spoke these words about Israel:

“I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries and bring you into your own land” (36:24).

The first part of that was fulfilled on May 14, 1948. Isaiah made this wild claim: “Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion was in labor, She gave birth to her children” (66:8).

Isaiah 63:7-64:12 – One ClayNation, Under God, Impressionable

Isaiah illustrates God’s involvement with nations as a potter working with impressionable clay.

Certain aggressive but disturbing theologies teach that the Master Potter makes some ‘people-pottery’ that will definitely be saved, AND He makes some ‘people-pottery’ that cannot be saved. If you object to that awful depiction of God, they will look at you with their cold, steely eyes and say three words they believe will render you subdued and compliant: “God is sovereign.”

Of course God is sovereign! His sovereignty doesn’t mean God can behave in ways that are contrary to His nature. If something would be immoral for us to do, how much more terrible if God does it?

That approach to sovereignty reminds me of the famous Richard Nixon quote, “When the president does it, that means that it is not illegal.”
