1) President Trump is forming a “Board of Peace” made up of ten international leaders from Arab and Western nations—leaders who will collectively oversee the next phase of governance, security, and reconstruction in Gaza and the broader Middle East peace framework. Ten leaders. Not nine or twelve. Does this not prick the curious mind of the average Bible prophecy student?
2) Last days mockery and scoffing is front-and-center. It is from within–that is what is so heartbreaking. We all have loved ones who call us–in a deriding manner–“End-Times Eddie” or “Gloom and Doom June.” We are warning that time is running out.
In 2025, some claiming to be Christians predicted a specific date for the rapture. Many sold all possessions and awaited the rapture of believers. In a sense, those folks deserved some scolding but it hit all believers in end-time eschatology and weakened our last days’ witness. And, there was more mocking and scoffing from believers and unbelievers.
3) There was much cheering for evil in 2025. Yes, the Bible says that in the last days, evil will wax worse and worse (II Timothy 3:13) so why are we surprised? Hamas was cheered. So was Zohran Mamdani. How nutty is this? Mamdani is preparing the world for the Antichrist! Somalis financially raided my home state of Minnesota and the Left celebrated their evil accomplishments and lies. Leftists thought Charlie Kirk’s murder was just fine. Some celebrated. Luigi Mangioni, who killed a healthcare executive in cold blood, is a modern-day hero to some. Jews were set on fire in Colorado. OK by some.
4) There was much destruction of “people of the book”—Jews and Christians. Zohran Mamdani was elected because he hated Jews. It is cool. This is the new normal but it will drive Jews to Israel, so God is causing good out of evil. It is clear that the Jews are the “burdensome stone” to the world (Zechariah 12:3). Australia’s Prime Minister blames guns, not people, for the slaughter of Jews on Bondi Beach recently. The cancellation of New Year’s Eve activities worldwide is a reminder that “globalize the Intifadeh” is real.
At the same time, Christians are being persecuted and slaughtered more than any time in history. But here’s the twist of this story–you will be hard pressed to find details in today’s media.
5) It was made clear in 2025 that we are the “convergence generation.” We are on the cusp of digital money and an Antichrist system. Wars and rumors of wars cause us weariness and sorrow. The spirit of the Antichrist seems to reign. Natural disasters crush our spirit as we watch on various media platforms. The Middle East is a powder keg. The decline of society is staggering. Love is growing cold. People are without natural affection. It’s all coming together.
6) The rise of the predicted strong delusion (2 Thess. 2:11). When intelligent people promote delusional lies, you know the thinking is skewed and even demonic. We saw it over and over in 2025 with Tucker Carlson, Candice Owens, Nick Fuentes, and many more. Carlson rejected Israel and God’s people and embraced the terror capital of the world — Qatar. Delusion!
7) While most weren’t looking, artificial intelligence (AI) advanced to the degree that it can rule the world - Most Christians have no idea what this is leading to. Along with Israel’s re-birth, it may be THE most stunning end-time development. It is the game-changer. But most pay far more attention to the latest football game and pretend this is just a fantasy of last days’ watchers. AI will be Antichrist’s primary tool.
8) The Charlie Kirk assassination was meant for evil but God used it for good - Since that September tragedy, younger people are opening the Bible in record numbers, downloading Scripture apps, buying physical Bibles, and–most unexpectedly–walking back into churches. I’m cautious with the word “revival”, but one cannot ignore the spiritual fire that was lit in a final days’ oupouring of interest in the gospel in the Western world. This may be the biggest faith story of 2025.
9) The rise of aberrant prophetic theology is staggering. I am told Dispensationalism is in decline. The message of a literal Antichrist, Tribulation, Millennial Kingdom, special end-time role for Israel, pre-Tribulation Rapture, all are diminishing. Few care that the King is coming!
Theologies rising are Preterism (all prophecy happened in 70 AD), Kingdom Now/Dominionism, Amillennialism, Replacement Theology, and Postmillennialism. Simple “left behind” theology is in derision. Instead, the CHURCH will make the world better and better. Can you imagine???
10) My last point is to stress the supreme frustration that I must limit my observations to ten markers! There are hundreds! The world is rushing towards globalism. Violence and lawlessness are the order of the day. God’s timepiece, Israel, has enemies on seven sides! All creation groans! Islam is gaining ground.
So, the fact that things are all coming together—all falling into place—excites only a tiny remnant who will never grow weary of keeping their eyes on the sky! If you are among them, hang in there. He is coming soon. As things continue to deteriorate, we may be left with only one hope—the blessed hope.
We are the convergence generation. Someone get excited about it. Hang on for an even wilder ride in 2026!
It’s better to sound the warnings and be mocked than have multitudes come to us and ask us, “Why didn’t you warn us of all of this and of all of the things to come?”
