Bill Gates had a question for the employees of his charitable foundation, which he recently announced will spend $200 billion to reduce disease and death among the world’s poorest.

Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.Matthew 10 : 8

“We’re going to have to up our game quite a bit.”! Temple Traffic!

How do you get people to care?” the Microsoft founder asked at the Gates Foundation’s annual meeting this month. “We’re going to have to up our game quite a bit.”

At that time the gold will be separated from the dross. True godliness will be clearly distinguished from the appearance and tinsel of it. Many a star that we have admired for its brilliance will then go out in darkness. Those who have assumed the ornaments of the sanctuary, but are not clothed with Christ’s righteousness, will then appear in the shame of their own nakedness.
Among earth’s inhabitants, scattered in every land, there are those who have not bowed the knee to Baal. Like the stars of heaven, which appear only at night, these faithful ones will shine forth when darkness covers the earth and gross darkness the people. In heathen Africa, in the Catholic lands of Europe and of South America, in China, in India,  in the islands of the sea, and in all the dark corners of the earth, God has in reserve a firmament of chosen ones that will yet shine forth amidst the darkness, revealing clearly to an apostate world the transforming power of obedience to His law. Even now they are appearing in every nation, among every tongue and people; and in the hour of deepest apostasy, when Satan’s supreme effort is made to cause “all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond,” to receive, under penalty of death, the sign of allegiance to a false rest day, these faithful ones, “blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke,” will “shine as lights in the world.” Revelation 13:16; Philippians 2:15. The darker the night, the more brilliantly will they shine.
What strange work Elijah would have done in numbering Israel at the time when God’s judgments were falling upon the backsliding people!  PK 188.1 – PK 189.1

Hundreds of Gates Foundation employees—many flown in from the foundation’s country offices in India, China, South Africa, and elsewhere—filled an amphitheater across the street from the world’s largest private philanthropy’s two-winged headquarters in Seattle.

The operation they work for will no longer exist 20 years from now

This year’s event came at a remarkable moment: Employees had just learned that the operation they work for will no longer exist 20 years from now. On its 25th anniversary, the Gates Foundation announced that after doubling its spending in the next 20 years, it will shutter operations. The $200 billion it will spend is the largest philanthropic commitment in modern history.

And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:Revelation 18 : 11, And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.Revelation 18 : 21…… But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.Matthew 18 : 6

Walking into the dimly lit auditorium!

Walking into the dimly lit auditorium, Gates received a standing ovation from the mezzanine down to the front row. “We are at an amazing milestone,” said the foundation’s cofounder. Gates began by celebrating the progress made in the foundation’s first quarter-century, including the reduction by half of childhood deaths, and successes fighting malaria, polio, and other infectious diseases. He teared up as he mentioned the people—his mother, father, fellow philanthropist Warren Buffett, and ex-wife and foundation cofounder Melinda French Gates—who have influenced him the most in his philanthropy.

[1] The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him. [3] Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings. [4] It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:Proverbs 31 : 1, 3-4

Our advocacy to get the resources restored! : bemoaned the sector’s fragility!

The tone was far from triumphal, however. Even as Gates laid out the foundation’s big ambitions—including eradicating polio and malaria, and reducing deaths from tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS by 90%—he warned of how far there is to go, bemoaned the sector’s fragility, and said the recent drastic cuts to foreign aid from the United States and other top donor countries are already threatening the last two decades’ progress.

“It’s going to take our very best work to get this reversed, our advocacy to get the resources restored,” Gates told the foundation’s staff. And he said, he’s looking for “amazing, low-cost innovation, so we can take what remains and actually get those figures going back in the right direction.”

When the voice of God turns the captivity of His people, there is a terrible awakening of those who have  lost all in the great conflict of life…. The gain of a lifetime is swept away in a moment. The rich bemoan the destruction of their grand houses, the scattering of their gold and silver…. The wicked are filled with regret, not because of their sinful neglect of God and their fellow men, but because God has conquered. They lament that the result is what it is, but they do not repent of their wickedness.—The Great Controversy, 654 (1911). LDE 273.3

CEO Mark Suzman spoke for many when he expressed rage at the cuts in aid from wealthy countries. Gates and his foundation had made the decision to pursue these ambitious public health goals before the Trump administration’s gutting of the United States’ main international aid agency, USAID—and several other countries are also cutting their international aid budgets.

Last Desperate Struggle : “This is a fight we are ready for.”

“Make no mistake, we are entering a new era, one in which, as you’ve heard, the world’s poorest people can no longer rely on strong, steady support from the world’s richest nations,” Suzman said. “It is okay to be frustrated… We never thought we’d have to fight so hard to justify the importance of our work.” But, he continued: “This is a fight we are ready for.”

Reached after the gathering, one staff member at the foundation said that colleagues’ mood has been “pretty optimistic and enthusiastic” after the $200 billion announcement. “We are super energized thinking about what legacy building looks like and how we can work ourselves out of a job by building local capacity and empowering our partners to continue the mission,” the staffer wrote to Fortune.

When the very idea of hope for a better future starts to sound!

Suzman said the foundation’s goals have not changed. “When critical coalitions seem to crumble before our eyes, we cannot just shrink our ambitions,” he said. “When the very idea of hope for a better future starts to sound naïve or out of date, we must remind people that our optimism does not come easily. It has been hard-earned. It is not based on blind faith, but concrete, measurable results.”

Everything in the world is in agitation. The signs of the times are ominous. Coming events cast their shadows before. The Spirit of God is withdrawing from the earth, and calamity follows calamity by sea and by land. There are tempests, earthquakes, fires, floods, murders of every grade. Who can read the future? Where is security? There is assurance in nothing that is human or earthly. Rapidly are men ranging themselves under the banner they have chosen. Restlessly are they waiting and watching the movements of their leaders. There are those who are waiting and watching and working for our Lord’s appearing. Another class are falling into line under the generalship of the first great apostate. Few believe with heart and soul that we have a hell to shun and a heaven to win.
The crisis is stealing gradually upon us.  DA 636.1 – DA 636.2

The potential of AI to help alleviate poverty and play a key role in drug discovery.

Gates asked his employees to reinvigorate their drive to achieve the foundation’s core mission, bring new partners along, and invest in the potential of AI to help alleviate poverty and play a key role in drug discovery. “I really believe, and I hope it’s not a naive belief, that we can achieve—despite the headwinds—even more over the next 20 years than we did in the first 25,” he said.

Trans mouse illo
Trans mouse illo

Donald Trump on Tuesday told Congress Elon Musk had rooted out “hundred of billions of dollars” worth of government waste thanks to Doge.

Reeling off a long list of examples of apparent misspending, Mr Trump said that $45 million had been spent on diversity, equity, and inclusion scholarships in Burma, $20 million on the Arab version of Sesame Street – and “$8 million for making mice transgender”.

“This is real,” he said.

Left-wing media outlets were quick to dismiss the claims as misinformation. After the White House released a statement branding CNN “fake news losers”, the outlet issued a correction to its fact check of Mr Trump’s speech, stating that “an earlier version of this item incorrectly characterised as false Trump’s claim”.

Rome Merchants of Venice

The president was referring to an investigation by the White Coat Waste Project, a non-profit campaigning to stop animal testing, which investigates taxpayer-funded experiments on the effects of gender-affirming drugs in rodents.

And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
Revelation 18 : 23

Justin Goodman, senior vice-president for the lobbying group, claimed it has documented “over $250 million spent on transgender animal experiments over the last couple of decades”.

Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight?
Job 18 : 3

He added that “there are over two dozen active federal grants funding transgender animal experiments, worth a total of $64 million”.

These include a National Institute of Health (NIH) funded project at Duke University that allegedly received $455,000 to study how HIV vaccines work in male mice subjected to female hormones – to imitate human gender transitions.

In another experiment, scientists at the University of Michigan allegedly spent $2,588,000 of an NIH grant investigating the effects of hormone treatment in mice to imitate gender transition.

A further experiment at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Centre allegedly spent $300,000 investigating breast cancer risk for transgender people by looking at tumours in mice.

A study at Emory University funded by NIH also allegedly spent $735,000 evaluating the contribution of the gut microbiome towards gender affirming hormone therapy in mice.

Pope Francis : ‘The Mental Structure of Fundamentalists is Violence in the name of God

A researcher at Emory said: “We study the effects of the hormone treatment used by transgender people on skeletal development. We want to know if these hormones impair skeletal growth and increase the probability of osteoporosis later in life.”

They added that the experiments are conducted in “normal mice”.

Let us, then, first compare some of the fundamental principles of our government with those of the Catholic Church.
“The Constitution of the United States guarantees liberty of conscience. Nothing is dearer or more fundamental. Pope Pius IX, in his Encyclical Letter of August 15, 1854, said: `The absurd and erroneous doctrines or ravings in defense of liberty of conscience are a most pestilential error—a pest, of all others, most to be dreaded in a state.’ The same pope, in his Encyclical Letter of December 8, 1864, anathematized `those who assert the liberty of conscience and of religious  worship,’ also ‘all such as maintain that the church may not employ force.’
“The pacific tone of Rome in the United States does not imply a change of heart. She is tolerant where she is helpless. Says Bishop O’Connor: ‘Religious liberty is merely endured until the opposite can be carried into effect without peril to the Catholic world.’… The archbishop of St. Louis once said: ‘Heresy and unbelief are crimes; and in Christian countries, as in Italy and Spain, for instance, where all the people are Catholics, and where the Catholic religion is an essential part of the law of the land, they are punished as other crimes.’… GC 564.4 – GC 565.1

Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
Psalm 140 : 8

Male sex hormone treatment on female mice

Meanwhile, scientists at the University of California are alleged to have spent $1,229,000 of NIH money looking at the effects of male sex hormone treatment on female mice.

For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not countervail the king's damage.
Esther 7 : 4

A final experiment at Indiana University, funded by $3,100,000 of NIH money, looked into the effects of feminising hormone therapy on the lungs of rodents.

And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
Revelation 18 : 11

Representatives for the White Coat Waste Project testified at a February House Oversight Committee meeting chaired by Nancy Mace, in which the South Carolina congresswoman used the examples of gender experiments on animals to underscore concerns about government waste.

scientists were “mutilating animals”

Mr Musk recently called government spending on research into the effects of hormone treatment on animals “demented” in an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast.

For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them:.... 
Ecclesiastes 3 : 19

Restrict animal testing, with the Environmental Protection Agency, testing “chemicals on animals”

During his first term, Mr Trump moved to restrict animal testing, with the Environmental Protection Agency announcing plans to end the practice by 2035.

However, the agency reportedly abandoned its plans last year amid concerns that testing chemicals on animals remains the safest means of reducing harm to humans.

Mr Goodman said: “We’re absolutely thrilled and honoured that the president highlighted our investigation during the state of the union and helped us expose wasteful government spending that’s torturing animals in grotesque experiments.

“I think that these experiments are a great example of DEI programmes run amok, where programmes that claim to be intended to help marginalised people are being exploited to torture animals in sick experiments that only benefit the mad scientists conducting them.

“I think most taxpayers agree that money should not be spent to perform hormone therapies on lab animals to make them transgender.”

In a statement on its website, CNN said its story had been updated with context about the spending, “which was for research studies on the potential human health impacts of treatments used in gender-affirming care”.

Some scientists have raised concerns that Mr Trump’s comments have misled the public into believing that the studies on mice are only for modelling transgender hormone replacement.

One scientist said that experiments on mice have improved our understanding of the impact of sex hormones on a whole range of conditions.

They pointed to raloxifene, a medication used to treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, which they said would not have been available without years of studying the effects of hormones on rodents.

Merchants of The East

To SpaceX CEO and unelected White House advisor Elon Musk, the planned deorbiting of the International Space Station can’t come soon enough.

Who is Responsible for Theological Drift? Netanyahu, Pope or West? “It is time to begin Preparations for Deorbiting the space station,”

“It is time to begin preparations for deorbiting the space station,” he tweeted today. “It has served its purpose. There is very little incremental utility.”

“Let’s go to Mars Hill

Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.Acts 17 : 22, [4] 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. [5] And the LORD came down to see the city (Rock/Asteroid 2032) and the tower, which the children of men builded. Genesis 11 : 4-5

Musk also reiterated his desire to abandon current plans to visit the surface of the Moon, adding “let’s go to Mars.”

And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

NASA  with Musk’s SpaceX to pull the aging orbital lab 🔬 out of its orbit starting in 2030

Confusingly, NASA is already working with Musk’s SpaceX to develop a “US Deorbit Vehicle” designed to pull the aging orbital lab out of its orbit starting in 2030. The agency announced it had selected the company in June.

[1] Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat. [13] Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?1 Kings 1 : 1, 13, Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.Romans 6 : 12, Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.Luke 17 : 21

Is Musk aimlessly trying to make more enemies within NASA’s ranks — or are his comments yet another smoke screen as he spreads chaos throughout the government?

Pope Satellite 🛰️ Satellite 📡 Launches Non-violent Laudato Si Sabbath Gospel unto Space To Beat Climate Change!

When Ars Technica‘s Eric Berger asked Musk if he was “supposed ggesting that the ISS be deorbited prior to 2030,” Musk stopped short of offering any concrete plans, arguing that “the decision is up to the President, but my recommendation is as soon as possible.”

“I recommend 2 years from now,” he added.

It’s a baffling new development, considering that plans for the station’s destruction were already well underway.

Musk also appears to be throwing the entire scientific community under the bus by arguing that there’s “little incremental utility.”

Despite its old age — the cracks are literally starting to show — the ISS has served and still serves an extremely important function, allowing scientists to conduct important experiments in microgravity, including the feasibility of humanity embarking on long journeys through outer space.

Merchants of Babylon Prepares For US A Home!

For one, that’s research that aligns extremely closely with Musk’s goals of delivering humans to Mars.

And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.2 Timothy 4 : 18
Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:Galatians 1 : 4
Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;2 Corinthians 1 : 10

NASA also doesn’t have another space station lined up, except for several private partnerships that may or may not result in the launch of privately owned orbital labs before the end of the decade.

Musk’s latest tweet also highlights a growing deviation between NASA’s current priorities and his own. Musk’s space company holds tens of billions of dollars worth of government contracts, evidence of his naked conflict of interest as the boss — or whatever he is — of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, which is currently making brutal cuts to federal spending.

American global leadership is ending. Not because of “American decline,” or the emergence of a multipolar world, or the actions of U.S. adversaries. It’s ending because President Donald Trump wants to end it.

[6] We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so. [7] Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, every one shall howl: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken.
Isaiah 16 : 6-7

What is the foundation of America’s Power?

Just about all of Trump’s policies, both at home and abroad, are rapidly destroying the foundation of American power. The main beneficiary will be the Chinese leader Xi Jinping, who has been planning for the moment when Washington stumbles and allows China to replace the United States as the world’s superpower. That Trump is willing to hand the world over to Xi—or doesn’t even realize that’s what he’s doing—shows that his myopic worldview, admiration for autocrats, and self-obsession are combining to threaten international security and, with it, America’s future.

The Bible was held as the foundation of faith, the source of wisdom, and the charter of liberty. Its principles were diligently taught in the home, in the school, and in the church, and its fruits were manifest in thrift, intelligence, purity, and temperance. One might be for years a dweller in the Puritan settlement, “and not see a drunkard, or hear an oath, or meet a beggar.”—Bancroft, pt. 1, ch. 19, par. 25. It was demonstrated that the principles of the Bible are the surest safeguards of national greatness. The feeble and isolated colonies grew to a confederation of powerful states, and the world marked with wonder the peace and prosperity of “a church without a pope, and a state without a king.” GC 296.3

Trump is choosing to retreat even though the U.S. has its adversaries on the back foot. President Joe Biden’s foreign policy was working. By supporting Ukraine’s defense against Russia’s invasion, Biden weakened Moscow so severely that President Vladimir Putin had to turn to North Korea for help. His backing of Israel in its war with Hamas in Gaza undercut Iran’s influence in the Middle East. And Biden’s strengthening of the U.S. global-alliance system pressured and unnerved China as the world’s advanced democracies banded together against Xi and his plans to upset the world order.

[5] And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.

[David Frum: How Trump lost his trade war]

willingness to sacrifice Ukraine to Russia before formal negotiations even start.

Now Trump is voluntarily throwing away this hard-won leverage. The supposed master negotiator is signaling his willingness to sacrifice Ukraine to Russia before formal negotiations even start. Last week, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called a restoration of Ukraine to its borders before Russia snatched Crimea in 2014 an “unrealistic objective,” indicating that the administration would accept a peace deal that allows Putin to keep part of the independent nation he invaded. Hegseth also rejected NATO membership for Ukraine—the possibility of which was Putin’s pretext for invading in the first place. That wouldn’t be a bad outcome for Putin after starting a brutal war and effectively losing it.

But the big winner from such a settlement will be China. Because China is Russia’s most important partner, any gains that Putin can salvage from his disastrous war forwards the two dictators’ global agenda. That’s why Xi is egging Trump on. Beijing has reportedly proposed holding a summit between Trump and Putin to resolve the Ukraine war. Then Chinese construction companies would try to swoop in and earn a fortune rebuilding a shattered Ukraine, which Xi helped Putin destroy by supporting Russia’s sanctions-plagued economy.

More than that, Xi certainly realizes that Trump’s pandering to Putin offers Xi a chance to break up the Atlantic alliance and entrench Chinese influence in Europe. Vice President J. D. Vance blasted European allies at last week’s Munich Security Conference for marginalizing extremist right-wing political parties, and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi took the opportunity to present Xi as the anti-Trump. “China will surely be a factor of certainty in this multipolar system and strive to be a steadfast constructive force in a changing world,” he told the attendees.

European leaders are not likely to have forgotten that Xi enabled Putin’s war in Ukraine. But if Trump won’t guarantee European security, Xi may well seize the opportunity to expand Chinese power by offering to step into the breach. Xi could make the case that he is able to rein in Putin, protect Ukraine, and preserve stability in Europe. That promise could well be an empty one; Xi may not be willing or even able to restrain an emboldened Putin. Still, abandoned by Washington, European leaders may hold their collective noses and look to Xi to keep the peace.

China “would start replacing the U.S. in the role of keeping Russia out of the Eastern Flank,” Gabrielius Landsbergis, the former Lithuanian foreign minister, recently posted on X. European Union members “in the East would be dependent on China’s protection and the racketeering would spread West.”

Trump is handing Xi other opportunities, too. By withdrawing from the World Health Organization and the United Nations Human Rights Council, the U.S. is clearing the field for China to make the UN system an instrument of its global power. Dismantling USAID makes China all the more indispensable to the developing world. Trump’s bizarre plan to deport Palestinians from Gaza will be a boon to Xi in the Middle East, a region China considers vital to its interests. Even the U.S. suspension of federal financial support for electric vehicles helps Xi by hampering American automakers in a sector Beijing seeks to dominate. China may see American retrenchment as an invitation to take more aggressive actions in pursuit of its interests—in Taiwan, but also toward other U.S. allies in Asia, including Japan, South Korea, and the Philippines.

Trump apparently assumes that he can keep Xi in check with tariffs. He imposed new duties on Chinese imports earlier this month. But Xi doesn’t seem particularly bothered. Beijing retaliated, but with little more than a face-saving gesture. The reciprocal tariffs covered a mere tenth of U.S. imports. Why fuss about a few shipments of stuffed toys when you can take over the world?

In the proud parade of nations,-princes, potentates, and powers,-which, since the gray dawn of the nineteenth century, have with serried ranks, in tramping column and marching file, maneuvered and deployed upon the grand plateau of human history, one, one only, and one alone,-the United States, has broken out her banners to the breezes, and nobly declared her right to a place in the galaxy of great world-powers because she stood for a priceless principle, eternal as the heavens. All others have stood upon might; this one, and this one alone, upon irresistible, impregnable right.

On the folds of the flag of Columbia have been woven in glittering strands, “By the laws of nature and of nature’s God, to establish justice.” Her silver stars have shone forth like ambassadors of better things from the blue dome of the goodly land beyond. In the breasts of her freemen has burned the sacred flame of “liberty for all mankind.” This flame has partaken, of the nature of the cloven tongues of fire which once rested upon the apostles of our Lord. It has gone forth and attracted tens of thousands of the oppressed, yet still the best and blest of every nation, kindred, tongue, and tribe. The Perils of the Republic of The United States of America by Percy Maga Tilson, 1898

The damage to American global standing could be irreparable. The hope now is that the major democracies of Europe and Asia—France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom—will stop up the power vacuum Trump is creating and keep China out of it. European leaders do not have to abide by whatever deal Trump cooks up with Putin for Ukraine. They could hold firm, continue the war, and wait for a new administration in Washington to reaffirm U.S. security commitments. But the course is risky, because erstwhile U.S. allies can’t assume that Washington will ever reestablish global leadership, or that if it does, the promises of future presidents will endure. That uncertainty may compel the allied democracies to make accommodations with China as best they can.

[Quico Toro: Trump’s Colombia spat is a gift to China]

Trump’s administration may be seeking to settle matters with Putin in order then to concentrate limited U.S. resources on confronting China. But this course may succeed only in making China more difficult to contend with, because America will be forced to do so without its traditional allies by its side.

Trust, once lost, is difficult to restore. Trump’s premise seems to be that what happens in Europe and Asia is of little consequence to the United States. Vance invoked Catholic theology (erroneously, according to Pope Francis) to justify a hierarchy of concern that places caring for U.S. citizens ahead of the rest of the world. But what, exactly, is best for Americans?

Trump may be right that other powers should do more to take care of their own affairs. But Americans know as well as anyone that what happens in the far-flung corners of the world—whether in Europe in the 1930s and ’40s or in Afghanistan at the turn of the 21st century—can and often does affect them, even dragging them into conflicts they do not want to fight. That doesn’t mean Washington must police every dispute. But by ceding global leadership to authoritarian China, Trump is creating a world that will almost certainly be hostile to the United States, its prosperity, and its people.

The militant group is attempting to hold onto its two longstanding demands as Israel’s security cabinet has a stated war goal of removing Hamas, designated a terrorist group by the US and many other countries, as a governing and military force in Gaza.

But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
Acts 28 : 22
For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:

Israel’s objective to expel Hamas from Gaza is a “silly psychological warfare,”

Israel’s objective to expel Hamas from Gaza is a “silly psychological warfare,” he said. On Monday, Qasim said the group is ready to cede power in the war-ravaged territory if the move serves the interests of Gazans.

When we reach the standard that the Lord would have us reach, worldlings will regard Seventh-day Adventists as odd, singular, straight-laced extremists. “We are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.”
We are under solemn, sacred covenant to God to bring up our children, not for the world, not to put their hands into the hands of the world, but to love and fear God, and to keep his commandments. We are to instruct them to work intelligently in Christ’s lines, to present a noble, elevated Christian character to those with whom they associate. For this reason our schools have been established, that youth and children may be so educated as to exert an influence for God in the world. Then shall our schools become converted to the world, and follow its customs and fashions? “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.” RH January 9,  1894, par. 10 – RH January 9,  1894, par. 11

Hamas said it would free six hostages on Saturday rather than over the coming two weeks, as originally planned. The decision was made in response to the mediators, Qasim said.

Israel and Hamas agreed to pause hostilities in January after months of talks overseen by the US and brokered by Qatar and Egypt. The current ceasefire framework expires in early March.

Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister Gideon Sa’ar said discussions to extend the initial six-week truce and secure the rest of the hostages held by Hamas will start in coming days.

CAIRO: Yemeni Information Minister Moammar Al-Eryani called on Wednesday for the arrest of a group of leaders from Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis who he said will attend Lebanese Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah’s funeral in Beirut.

‘Merchants Buy of Me’ :Two young Israelis arrested for planning terror attack against IDF soldiers


According to the indictment, one of the Israelis arrested, Ratib Omar, 18, began associating himself with the terror group Hamas after the war began by watching inciting content online and delving into extremist propaganda.

But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.Acts 28 : 22

He bought a green headband, a military uniform, Islamic inscriptions, and more to use in videos where he expressed his support for Hamas.

I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.Revelation 3 : 18


Nasrallah, who had served as Hezbollah’s secretary general for more than 30 years, was killed on September 27 as Israel ramped up its attacks on southern Lebanon. His funeral is scheduled for February 23.

Two-Edged Prophets Torment/ Attacks

And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. Revelation 11 : 10


Eryani demanded that the Lebanese government arrest the Houthi leaders and hand them over to the rival internationally recognized government in a post on X.
He did not name the Houthi officials.
Neither the Lebanese government nor Houthi leaders was immediately available for comment.


The Houthis did not officially announce a delegation was attending the funeral

The Houthis did not officially announce a delegation was attending the funeral, but the Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV reported a delegation from Yemen would participate. “We affirm that the movement of these terrorist leaders… in this timing is not a mere participation in the funeral, which is being used as a cover, to gather all the leaders of the Iranian axis and assess the situation after the blows they received,” he added.

For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:
Acts 24 : 5
[26] Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them. [27] And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him, [28] Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place. [29] (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.) [30] And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut. [31] And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.
Acts 21 : 26-31


The Yemeni minister was referring to the recent Israeli attacks against Iran-backed groups in the region including Hezbollah and the Houthis.


Both groups launched parallel attacks against Israel during its war in Gaza to show support for Palestinians.


The Houthis, who control northern Yemen, also carried out more than 100 attacks on ships off the shores of Yemen since November 2023, disrupting global shipping and causing route changes and losses.


The Palestinian militant group Hamas’s attack on Israel in October 2023 killed about 1,200 people in southern Israel, according to Israeli tallies.


Israel’s retaliatory offensive on Gaza has killed more than 48,000 Palestinians, according to Palestinian health officials, laid waste to much of the enclave, and displaced hundreds of thousands.

One Mind : “Beast Drunken” German prosecutors tell ’60 Minutes’ it’s a crime to insult people online as government raids offenders’ homes

Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.Isaiah 29 : 9

CBS’ “60 Minutes” aired a friendly interview Sunday with local German officials as the country’s government initiates a nationwide crackdown on offensive speech.

CBS’ Sharyn Alfonsi juxtaposed how, even as the United States allows “hate-filled or toxic” speech, Germany is “trying to bring some civility to the worldwide web by policing it in a way most Americans could never imagine.”

Germany has been raiding the homes of those it believes to be making offensive statements online. CBS rode along with six armed officers as they raided a suspect’s home and seized his electronics.

We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands. Mark 14 : 58
These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Revelation 17 : 13

Alfonsi interviewed state prosecutors, Dr. Matthäus Fink, Svenja Meininghaus and Frank-Michael Laue, who explained that such laws come as a surprise even to German citizens.

Fink said the typical reaction is that “The people are surprised that this is really illegal, to post these kind [sic] of words… They don’t think it was illegal. And they say, ‘No, that’s my free speech,’ And we say, ‘No, you have free speech as well, but it also has its limits.'”

Alfonsi summarized that German law “prohibits any speech that could incite hatred or is deemed insulting” and asked the prosecutors about how this works in practice.

“It’s illegal to display Nazi symbolism, a swastika, or deny the Holocaust, that’s clear,” Alfonsi said. “Is it a crime to insult somebody in public?”

Yes,” the prosecutors agreed.

And it’s a crime to insult them online as well?” Alfonsi asked.

Yes,” Meininghaus answered.

The fine could be even higher if you insult someone in the internet,” Fink explained. “Because [on the] internet, it stays there. If we are talking face to face, you insult me, I insult you, okay, finish. But if you’re [on] the internet, if I insult you or a politician-“

It sticks around forever,” Alfonsi said, finishing his sentence.

Alfonsi reported that German law also “prohibits the spread of malicious gossip, violent threats, and fake quotes.”

Meininghaus explained how re-posting or redistributing false information is a violation as well.

“In the days of re-posting, it is a crime as well,” the prosecutor said. “Because the reader can’t distinguish whether you just invented this or just re-posted it. That’s the same for us.”

“The punishment for breaking hate speech laws can include jail time for repeat offenders,” Alfonsi narrated. “But in most cases a judge levies a stiff fine and sometimes keeps their devices.”

Laue laughed as he described how “shocked” people are when their phones are taken. “It’s kind of a punishment if you lose your smartphone. It’s even worse than the fine you have to pay.”

Because your whole life is typically on your phone now,” Alfonsi observed.

Cbs Host Blasted For ‘Bonkers’ Claim That Nazi Germany ‘Weaponized’ Free Speech

CBS noted that there are 16 units with teams of investigators that monitor hate speech across the country. Laue, who leads the lower-Saxony unit, said that his office alone typically handles about 3,500 cases per year.

The segment came just days after Vice President JD Vance attended the Munich Security Conference, where he criticized Germany and other European allies for adopting a “Soviet”-style approach to censorship.

Elsewhere on the same network, CBS host Margaret Brennan locked horns with Secretary of State Marco Rubio as he defended Vance’s speech. The “Face the Nation” host claimed that free speech had been “weaponized” in Nazi Germany to bring about the Holocaust.

Rubio pushed back, “Free speech was not used to conduct a genocide… There was no free speech in Nazi Germany. There was none. There was also no opposition in Nazi Germany. They were the sole and only party that governed that country. So that’s not an accurate reflection of history.”

About 2,000 people crowd into Hostages Square in Tel Aviv to mark 500 days since October 7, 2023.

And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.Mark 5 : 13



Another 1,000 or so spill out to Shaul HaMelech Street, where speeches are projected on large screens.

At 8 p.m., some of those in attendance break a 500-minute fast that the Hostages Families Forum had announced.

Varda Ben Baruch, grandmother of US-Israeli captive soldier Edan Alexandar, calls for the hostages’ release, recites a blessing and sips some water.

“I want to break the fast and break their fate,” she says.

Edan’s mother Yael speaks next.

“I am Yael Alexandar, and I haven’t breathed for 500 days,” she says. Subsequent speakers open their speeches the same way.

She calls on the government to hammer out a deal that will bring all remaining hostages home at once, rather than the current deal’s protracted releases — another common theme in the night’s speeches.

To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
Isaiah 42 : 7



She ends with what will also emerge as a refrain: “To give up on them is to give up on us!”

“Babes Can’t Breathe” Give Merchants of The East and Ethiopian Eunuch Suck oh Philip!



In English, she adds thanks US President Donald Trump and his Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff.

President Trump, in the last two weeks, you brought back two American citizens, Sagui Dekel-Chen and Keith Siegel,” she says. “Today, I ask you to bring my son Edan home to our family.”

[7] Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. [8] Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. [9] Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God. [10] Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: [11] That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
Isaiah 66 : 7-11

Danielle Aloni, who was held captive in Gaza until she was freed as part of a brie ceasefire agreement in November 2023, and whose brother-in-law, David Cunio, and his younger brother, Ariel, remain in captivity, says her family received a sign of life from David Cunio from one of the recently returned hostages. The crowd breaks out into applause.

Addressing Netanyahu, Aloni says: “As of a few days ago, David is alive. And it’s your responsibility to bring him home. David has no more time to wait.”

And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. Romans 13 : 11

And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.Luke 18 : 38, And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. Revelation 11 : 11, And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.Genesis 35 : 5 



Flee Alexander and David, The Sea headed by Harlot Witch of Endor 🌊 hath spoken! One Mind

Edan Alexander and David Cunio are both slated for release only in the deal’s next, second phase. The second phase would see Hamas release young men still in captivity after the the release in the current phase of 33 women, children, civilian men over 50 and those deemed “humanitarian cases.”

Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.
Isaiah 23 : 4
Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:Isaiah 51 : 21, And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.John 8 : 32


Netanyahu’s right-wing flank has threatened to topple the government should it proceed to the second phase, which would require Israel to withdraw from Gaza (Desert 🏜️) . The premier has not committed to the second phase.

And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
Acts 8 : 26



Yeela David, whose brother Evyatar David is slated for release only in the second phase, says it is “the last chance to save to save dozens of men left behind in the current phase of the deal.”

Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.Isaiah 49 : 18



“The young men who were left behind did not undergo any special training to handle this situation. They’re just like anyone else,” she says. “If the deal falls apart and there is no second phase, it will be a stain on our history books.”

[14] And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. [17] And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

Rome Kingdoms Uncertainty : US Navy aircraft carrier collides with merchant ship near Suez Canal

The nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman was involved in a collision with a merchant ship near Egypt in the Mediterranean Sea on Wednesday night, a Navy spokesperson said Thursday.

And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

It’s not clear what caused the collision between the US warship and the Panamanian-flagged vessel Besiktas-M, but the spokesperson said it did not result in any flooding on board the Truman and its nuclear propulsion plants were unaffected.

No injuries were reported on either vessel, though the merchant ship sustained some damage, a Navy official said.

For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
Revelation 18 : 3

An investigation is ongoing to determine how they collided, but the official noted that the area they were in near the Suez Canal is typically very densely packed with ships.

The Besiktas-M, a 617-foot (188-meter) long bulk carrier, had exited the Suez Canal and was heading to Romania, according to tracking website Marine Traffic.

The Truman, a 1,100-foot-long Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, was heading toward the canal, tracking data indicates.

Marine expert Sal Mercogliano, a professor at Campbell University, said in an X Spaces conversation that the area where the collision occurred, near an anchorage off Egypt’s Port Said, had around 100 ships in it at the time of the incident.

Former US Navy captain Carl Schuster, an instructor at Hawaii Pacific University, said such conditions leave little room for error.

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
John 18 : 36

MANEUVERING in a RESTRICTED SEAWAY

And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
Revelation 17 : 15

“There is not a lot of room for maneuvering in a restricted seaway and both ships require about one nautical mile to stop,” Schuster said.

Small navigation mistakes, misreading of the other ship’s intentions or delayed decision-making from the crew of either ship could have put them in danger quickly “with very few viable options,” Schuster said.

Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.
Ecclesiastes 11 : 1

Last week the Truman was in Souda Bay, Greece, for a “working port visit” after two months of combat operations in the Central Command region, a Navy statement said. During that time, it conducted multiple strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen and launched airstrikes against ISIS in Somalia, the Navy said.

The Truman is one of 11 aircraft carriers in the US Navy fleet.

Accidents involving the huge ships and commercial vessels are rare as the carriers usually travel with a strike group, protected by a screen of destroyers.

But ships entering the Suez Canal must travel in single file, which could make them more vulnerable to a collision, experts said.

And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
Luke 2 : 49

The last known time a US carrier collided with a merchant vessel was on July 22, 2004, when a dhow, a sailing vessel common in the Middle East, struck the former USS John F. Kennedy in the Persian Gulf, according to maritime outlet USNI News.

Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.
Psalm 31 : 18

Two US Navy destroyers were involved in fatal collisions in 2017. Seven sailors died after the USS Fitzgerald struck a cargo ship off Japan in June that year, and 10 sailors were killed when the USS John S McCain collided with a tanker off Singapore and Malaysia two months later.
