How long till the return of Jesus Christ and the Anti Christ

From a Christian perspective, the exact timing of the return of Jesus Christ and the arrival of the Antichrist is not known. The Bible emphasizes that these events will occur unexpectedly.

Here’s a breakdown of what Christian prophecy generally indicates:

The Return of Jesus Christ (Second Coming):

  • No one knows the day or hour: Jesus himself stated that “concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only” (Matthew 24:36).
  • Imminent, but with signs: While the specific timing is unknown, the Bible does describe various “signs of the end times” that are believed to precede His return. These include:
    • Wars and rumors of wars
    • Famines, pestilences (epidemics), and earthquakes
    • Increase in lawlessness and a decline in love
    • False christs and false prophets
    • Persecution of Christians
    • A global preaching of the Gospel
    • A great apostasy or rebellion from the faith
  • Visible and Glorious: His return will be personal, visible, and glorious, with every eye seeing Him.

The Antichrist:

  • Precedes Jesus’ return: The Antichrist is generally believed to rise to power before the Second Coming of Christ, particularly during a period often referred to as the “Tribulation.”
  • “Man of Sin” or “Lawless One”: He is described as a powerful, deceptive world leader who will oppose Christ and claim to be God. He will perform signs and wonders to deceive many.
  • A period of great tribulation: His reign is associated with a time of unprecedented difficulty and persecution for believers, often referred to as the “Great Tribulation,” which some interpretations believe will last for three and a half years.
  • Destroyed by Christ: The Antichrist will ultimately be defeated by Jesus Christ at His Second Coming.

Different Interpretations:

It’s important to note that within Christianity, there are different interpretations regarding the precise order and timing of these end-time events. Views like Pre-tribulation, Post-tribulation, Amillennial, and Premillennialism offer varying timelines for the Rapture (the “snatching away” of believers), the Tribulation, the rise of the Antichrist, and the millennial reign of Christ.

In summary, while the Bible provides many details about the characteristics and events surrounding the return of Jesus and the Antichrist, it explicitly states that the exact “when” is known only to God. Therefore, Christians are encouraged to live in readiness and watchfulness, discerning the signs of the times without setting specific dates.

1 Thessalonians 5:4 – King James Version

4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

This verse, 1 Thessalonians 5:4 from the King James Version, is a powerful statement about the readiness of believers for the return of Jesus Christ.

Let’s break down its meaning:

  • “But ye, brethren, are not in darkness…”: This refers to Christians, those who have put their faith in Jesus. “Darkness” here symbolizes ignorance, spiritual blindness, or being unaware of God’s truth and purposes. In contrast to those who do not believe, Christians are seen as being “in the light” because they have received the truth of the Gospel.
  • “…that that day should overtake you as a thief.”: “That day” refers to the day of the Lord, which in this context specifically points to the return of Jesus Christ (the Second Coming) and the accompanying judgment and transformation of the world. The imagery of a “thief” emphasizes the unexpected and sudden nature of this event for those who are unprepared. A thief comes without warning, catching people off guard.

The Implication:

The core message of this verse is that genuine believers, because they are spiritually enlightened and living in accordance with God’s will, should not be caught off guard by the Lord’s return. While the exact time is unknown to everyone, true Christians are expected to live in a state of readiness and awareness, discerning the “signs of the times” and living lives that reflect their faith.

It’s a call to:

  • Spiritual Vigilance: To be awake, alert, and watchful, rather than spiritually slumbering.
  • Righteous Living: To live lives that are consistent with their faith, as light dispels darkness.
  • Hope and Assurance: To have an understanding of God’s prophetic plan, which gives them hope rather than fear regarding the future.

In essence, while the world may be surprised by the Lord’s return, believers, by virtue of their relationship with God and their understanding of His word, are meant to be prepared and eagerly anticipating that day.

Daniel says the days and years

You’re absolutely right to point to the Book of Daniel when discussing specific timeframes. Daniel’s prophecies are unique in the Bible for their detailed chronological predictions, often expressed in terms of days, weeks (of years), and “times.”

Here are the key time periods mentioned in Daniel, and how they are commonly interpreted in Christian eschatology:

  1. The “Seventy Sevens” or “Seventy Weeks” (Daniel 9:24-27):
    • This is arguably the most famous and meticulously analyzed prophecy in Daniel.
    • It states: “Seventy weeks are decreed about your people and your holy city…”
    • The Hebrew word translated “weeks” (shavuim) can also mean “sevens.” Most scholars understand this to mean “seventy sevens of years“, totaling 490 years.
    • Breakdown:
      • Seven sevens (49 years): This period is often linked to the rebuilding of Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile.
      • Sixty-two sevens (434 years): This period, combined with the first seven sevens, totals 69 sevens (483 years) and is widely believed to culminate in the first coming and “cutting off” (crucifixion) of the Messiah. The starting point is typically taken as a decree to rebuild Jerusalem (e.g., Artaxerxes’ decree in 445 BC).
      • One seven (7 years): This final “week” is where much of the debate and future-looking interpretation lies. Many believe there is a “gap” in the fulfillment of the prophecy between the 69th and 70th week. This final seven-year period is commonly identified as the Tribulation period, which will involve the rise of the Antichrist, a covenant he makes with Israel, and his eventual breaking of that covenant in the middle of the week (after 3.5 years).
  2. “Time, Times, and Half a Time” (Daniel 7:25; Daniel 12:7):
    • This phrase is consistently interpreted as 3.5 years.
    • “Time” typically means one year, “times” means two years, and “half a time” means half a year.
    • This period is often equated with:
      • 42 months: (Revelation 11:2; 13:5)
      • 1,260 days: (Revelation 11:3; 12:6)
    • These 3.5 years are commonly seen as the latter half of the final “seven” of Daniel 9, also known as the “Great Tribulation,” during which the Antichrist will exercise his most intense persecution.
  3. 1,290 Days (Daniel 12:11):
    • This verse says: “From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days.”
    • This period is 30 days longer than the 1,260 days (or 3.5 years) mentioned elsewhere.
    • Interpretations for these extra 30 days vary, but often suggest a period of post-tribulation events, such as the cleansing of the land or initial preparations for the millennial kingdom.
  4. 1,335 Days (Daniel 12:12):
    • “Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.”
    • This is 45 days longer than the 1,290 days, and 75 days longer than the 1,260 days.
    • This period is often seen as leading into the beginning of the Millennial Kingdom, with the “blessing” being entry into that kingdom. The additional days could encompass events like the judgment of the nations (“sheep and goats” judgment in Matthew 25) or further restoration of the earth.
  5. 2,300 Evenings and Mornings / Days (Daniel 8:14):
    • “He said to me, ‘For 2,300 evenings and mornings. Then the sanctuary shall be restored to its rightful state.'”
    • This prophecy is widely believed to have had a primary fulfillment in the actions of Antiochus IV Epiphanes in the 2nd century BC, who desecrated the Jewish Temple. The 2,300 evenings and mornings refer to the twice-daily sacrifices that were halted for that period.
    • Some interpretations also see a dual fulfillment, with a future Antichrist mimicking these actions.

Important Considerations:

  • Prophetic Day-Year Principle: Many interpreters apply the “day-year principle” to some of Daniel’s prophecies (e.g., Ezekiel 4:6, Numbers 14:34), where a prophetic “day” represents a literal year. This is particularly crucial for understanding the “70 weeks” as 490 years.
  • Literal vs. Symbolic: There’s ongoing debate among scholars about whether all these time periods should be taken as literal days/years or if some have symbolic meaning. However, most futurist interpretations of Daniel take the days (1260, 1290, 1335) and weeks (of years) literally in their context.
  • The “Gap” Theory: The idea of a “gap” between the 69th and 70th week of Daniel’s prophecy (Daniel 9) is a significant aspect of dispensational theology. This gap is seen as the current church age, after which the final 7-year “week” will commence, leading to the return of Christ.

Daniel’s prophecies are incredibly detailed and have been studied for centuries. They provide a framework for understanding the timing and sequence of many end-time events, though the precise interpretation of every detail can vary.

so have many weeks has it been so far

That’s a great question, and it directly addresses the heart of how Daniel’s prophecy of the “seventy weeks” (Daniel 9:24-27) is understood.

As we discussed, the “seventy weeks” are interpreted as 70 “sevens” of years, meaning a total of 490 years.

The prophecy is broken down into three parts:

  1. 7 weeks (49 years): For the rebuilding of Jerusalem.
  2. 62 weeks (434 years): Leading to the Messiah.
  3. 1 week (7 years): The final week, often seen as the future Tribulation.

The Key is the Starting Point

To determine “how many weeks it has been so far,” we need to identify the starting point of this prophecy. Daniel 9:25 states: “Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the word to restore and build Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince, there shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks…”

There are several historical decrees from Persian kings that could potentially fit this description, but the most widely accepted starting point for the 490 years (especially in dispensational interpretations) is the decree issued by Artaxerxes I in 445 BC (or 444 BC by some calculations), as recorded in Nehemiah 2:1-8. This decree gave Nehemiah permission and resources to rebuild the city walls and gates of Jerusalem.

Calculating the First 69 Weeks (483 Years)

  • Starting Date: Most calculations begin with the decree in the 20th year of Artaxerxes, which is often dated to March 14, 445 BC.
  • Duration: The prophecy states 7 weeks + 62 weeks = 69 weeks, which, using the day-year principle (1 prophetic day = 1 literal year), equals 483 years.
  • Arrival of the Messiah: When you calculate 483 years from March 14, 445 BC, you arrive at a date around April 6, 32 AD. This date remarkably aligns with Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem on what we now call Palm Sunday, where he presented himself as the Messiah.

Where We Are “So Far”

Based on this common interpretation:

  • The first 69 weeks (483 years) have already been fulfilled. They culminated in the first coming and “cutting off” (crucifixion) of Jesus Christ.

The “Gap” and the 70th Week

Many prominent interpretations of Daniel’s prophecy propose a “gap” or “intermission” between the 69th week and the 70th week. This gap represents the current Church Age, during which God’s focus is on building the Church, largely composed of Gentiles, and the prophetic clock for Israel is temporarily paused.

Therefore, according to this view:

  • The 70th week (the final 7 years) has NOT yet begun. It is believed to be a future period, commonly identified as the Tribulation, which will commence after the Church is raptured.

So, to directly answer your question “how many weeks has it been so far”:

The first 69 prophetic “weeks” (483 literal years) have been fulfilled. We are currently in an unspecified period between the 69th and 70th week. The 70th week is still future.

What about the jew calander return of the king

You’ve touched on a very important distinction! When we talk about the “Jewish calendar and the return of the King,” we’re shifting from Christian interpretations of prophecy to a purely Jewish perspective on the coming of the Messiah (Mashiach).

In Judaism, the Messiah is a human leader, a descendant of King David (hence “King Messiah” or “Mashiach ben David”), who will usher in a Messianic Era. This era is characterized by:

  • Political and spiritual redemption of the Jewish people: Gathering Jews from exile back to the Land of Israel.
  • Rebuilding the Third Temple in Jerusalem.
  • Establishing a Jewish government in Israel that becomes the spiritual and moral center for the entire world.
  • World peace: “Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore” (Isaiah 2:4).
  • Universal knowledge of God: All humanity will recognize and serve the one God of Israel.
  • Elimination of evil and suffering.

Timing of the Messiah’s Coming in Jewish Thought:

Unlike the Christian reliance on specific prophetic timelines like Daniel’s “weeks,” Jewish tradition generally holds that the exact timing of the Messiah’s coming is not known and can be influenced by human actions.

Here are some key aspects of the Jewish view on timing:

  1. “When he is most needed or most deserved”:
    • Some traditions suggest the Messiah will come when the world is in a state of utter sinfulness and despair, making his arrival a necessity for redemption (like a doctor visiting the sick).
    • Others believe he will come when the Jewish people, and humanity in general, achieve a high level of righteousness and spiritual merit, thereby “deserving” his arrival. This emphasizes the concept of Teshuvah (repentance) and Tikkun Olam (repairing the world).
  2. No Fixed Date (with some speculation):
    • Maimonides, a towering figure in Jewish philosophy, codified the belief in the Messiah’s coming as one of the 13 principles of Jewish faith, stating: “I believe with a full heart in the coming of the Messiah, and even though he may tarry, I will wait for him every day.” This emphasizes constant readiness and anticipation, not date-setting.
    • While generally rejecting fixed dates, there have been various attempts throughout history by some rabbis to calculate potential times, often based on numerical interpretations of biblical verses or other mystical traditions. However, these calculations are not universally accepted and are often met with skepticism within mainstream Judaism, largely because past predictions have failed.
    • The Talmud does mention a tradition that the Messiah will come before the Hebrew year 6000. The current Hebrew year is 5785 (as of mid-2024 to mid-2025). This leaves about 215 years until that theoretical deadline, but again, this is treated more as a general framework than a precise prediction.
  3. The “King is in the Field” (Elul):
    • The month of Elul (the last month of the Jewish year, preceding Rosh Hashanah) is a period of intense introspection and repentance. Jewish tradition says that during Elul, “the King is in the Field,” meaning God is more accessible and readily hears prayers and repentance, making it a particularly propitious time for spiritual growth that could hasten the Messiah’s coming.
  4. The Feasts as Prophetic Blueprints (a Messianic Jewish/Christian Perspective):
    • While not a mainstream Jewish teaching, Messianic Judaism (which combines Jewish traditions with belief in Jesus as the Messiah) and some Christian traditions often view the Jewish holidays (Moedim, or “appointed times”) as prophetic blueprints for the Messiah’s first and second comings.
      • Spring Feasts (Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost): Believed to have been fulfilled by Jesus’ first coming (crucifixion, burial, resurrection, and the giving of the Holy Spirit).
      • Fall Feasts (Rosh Hashanah/Feast of Trumpets, Yom Kippur/Day of Atonement, Sukkot/Feast of Tabernacles): Believed to represent events related to the Messiah’s second coming.
        • Rosh Hashanah (Feast of Trumpets): Often associated with the “last trumpet” and the gathering of believers.
        • Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement): Associated with national repentance of Israel and judgment.
        • Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles): Associated with the Messianic Kingdom and dwelling with God.

In summary, from a traditional Jewish perspective, the return of the “King” (Mashiach) is a fundamental belief and a fervent hope, but it’s not tied to specific countdowns on the Jewish calendar in the way some Christian interpretations use Daniel. Instead, it’s about living righteously, performing good deeds, and continually striving for repentance and holiness, as these actions are believed to hasten the arrival of the Messianic Age.

wormwood sign of Christ

In biblical prophecy, particularly in the Book of Revelation, Wormwood is not a sign of Christ’s return directly, but rather a sign of severe judgment and calamity that occurs during the period preceding or accompanying His return.

Let’s break down its meaning and context:

Revelation 8:10-11 is the primary passage:

“The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water— the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.”

Here’s what this passage and the broader biblical understanding of “wormwood” convey:

  1. Symbol of Bitterness, Suffering, and Divine Judgment:
    • In the Old Testament, “wormwood” (Hebrew: la’anah) is consistently used metaphorically to describe intense bitterness, sorrow, affliction, and the dire consequences of disobedience and sin. It’s often paired with “gall” (another bitter substance).
    • Examples: Deuteronomy 29:18 (warning against a “root bearing poisonous and bitter fruit [wormwood]”); Jeremiah 9:15, 23:15 (God feeding His disobedient people “wormwood and poisoned water”); Lamentations 3:15, 19 (the prophet’s intense suffering likened to being filled with wormwood).
    • In Revelation, the “star named Wormwood” falling on the waters signifies a literal event that brings about widespread suffering and death due to contaminated (bitter and poisonous) fresh water. It’s a severe divine judgment.
  2. Part of the Trumpet Judgments:
    • The event of Wormwood occurs as the third of the seven trumpet judgments in Revelation. These trumpet judgments are a series of catastrophic events that unfold on Earth as part of God’s wrath, leading up to the final culmination of His plan.
    • They are “partial” judgments (affecting a “third” of the earth, sea, rivers, or heavenly bodies), indicating that they are severe warnings and opportunities for repentance before the even more devastating “bowl judgments.”
  3. Not Christ Himself, Nor a Direct Sign of His Immediate Arrival:
    • Wormwood is a consequence of divine judgment, not a manifestation of Christ. Christ’s return is described as glorious, visible to all, and associated with His victory and righteous rule, not with poisoning water sources.
    • While it is an “end-times” event and part of the sequence leading to the very end, it’s a sign of the Tribulation period (or a period of intense judgment within it), rather than a direct “sign of Christ” in the sense of His appearing. It’s a sign that humanity’s rebellion is bringing about dire consequences.

Interpretations of the “Star Wormwood”:

  • Literal Celestial Event: Many interpret “a great star, blazing like a torch” as a literal asteroid, comet, or other celestial body that impacts Earth, causing massive contamination of freshwater.
  • Symbolic Figure: Some historical interpretations have seen “Wormwood” as symbolic of a powerful leader or a heretical teaching that brings spiritual bitterness and corruption.
  • The Chernobyl Connection: A notable modern interpretation (though often considered speculative by biblical scholars) links “Wormwood” to the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, as “Chernobyl” is derived from a Ukrainian word for a type of wormwood plant (Artemisia vulgaris). This interpretation sees the nuclear fallout as a literal fulfillment of the waters being made bitter and deadly.

In summary, “Wormwood” is a vivid prophetic image in Revelation representing a significant act of divine judgment that brings immense suffering and bitterness to a portion of the Earth’s freshwater supply. It signals escalating tribulation and serves as a powerful warning, but it is distinct from the actual return of Jesus Christ, which is portrayed as a triumphant and redemptive event for His followers.

Is the Universe Breaking the Rules? Scientists Detect Strange Dark Energy Shift

New research suggests the mysterious force accelerating the universe could be weakening — challenging our entire understanding of space and time.

Astronomers have made a discovery that could completely reshape our understanding of the universe and its expansion.

Researchers recently found that dark energy — the mysterious force driving the accelerated expansion of the cosmos — might not be a constant after all. In fact, new evidence suggests it could be weakening over time.

If true, this revelation could topple the long-standing standard cosmological model known as the Lambda-Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM) model. This model accounts for dark energy, regular matter, and “cold” dark matter — a hypothetical type of slow-moving matter compared to the speed of light. The “lambda” in ΛCDM refers to Einstein’s cosmological constant, which assumes that the universe’s rate of expansion remains fixed.

However, observations from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) in Arizona, first reported last year, hinted that dark energy may be evolving. This March, scientists released follow-up findings that further support this unusual and potentially groundbreaking idea.

“This is exciting — it might actually be putting the standard model of cosmology in danger,” said Yashar Akrami, an assistant research professor at the Autonomous University of Madrid, speaking to New Scientist.

Rather than scrapping the ΛCDM model entirely, Akrami and his team propose redefining dark energy as a “quintessence field.” This idea, which has been around for some time, imagines dark energy not as a fixed quantity but as something dynamic, changing over time.

If quintessence turns out to be real, it could also help align cosmological observations with advanced ideas from string theory, much to the excitement of physicists.

“If you prove that quintessence is dark energy, it’s very good for [string theorists],” Akrami said. “That’s why the string theory community is really excited now.”

An even more radical idea is that this new form of dark energy could interact with gravity itself. Pedro Ferreira, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford, explained to New Scientist that we might be witnessing the emergence of an additional “fifth force” in the universe.

“We’ve always thought about gravity as the force that fuels everything,” Ferreira said. “But now there could be an additional force, born from dark energy, influencing the universe alongside gravity.”

Of course, Ferreira cautions that we haven’t yet observed direct evidence of this fifth force — at least not in the local universe, where measurements are extremely precise.

“Physics ends up being even more complicated than we thought it could have been,” he added. “And that kind of makes you wonder, why do you want to go down that route?”

Ferreira believes that scientists may spend years debating new models of dark energy without ever reaching a final answer. But the hunt continues: upcoming observations from the European Space Agency’s Euclid satellite and further studies by DESI could offer critical clues.

In the meantime, one thing is clear: our universe is proving to be even stranger — and more fascinating — than we ever imagined.

From Cult Exposer’s to Cult Leaders? The Shocking Story of the CIA and the DOD creation of Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light

From Cult Exposers to Cult Leaders? The Shocking Story of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light.


For years, two young filmmakers from Indiana dedicated themselves to the murky world of cults, venturing into their inner circles and capturing their secrets on film. Their exposés garnered attention, even earning them coverage in Wired and local news outlets. But now, in a twist that reads like a dark Hollywood script, these very men stand accused of leading one of the fastest-growing and most bizarre doomsday cults on the planet: the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light.
Based in a converted orphanage in Crewe, England, this movement, spearheaded by Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq (Arabic: عبدالله هاشم أبا الصادق; born 1983), also commonly known as Abdullah Hashem, He also claims to be the comforter mentioned by Jesus, and the successor to Simon Peter, and the true and legitimate pope. Abdullah Hashem paints a terrifying picture of imminent global catastrophe. Hashem, who his followers address as “Master,” claims we are mere “hours” away from a “flood of blood” and urges his devotees to sever ties with their past lives, sell their homes, and pledge unwavering allegiance to him. In 2015, Abdullah Hashem announced that he was the Qa’im Al Muhammad (“Second Mahdi“) With over 200 followers living alongside him and a global reach through satellite television and a sprawling social media presence, his message of impending doom and the promise of salvation through him is spreading like wildfire.His Youtube Channel is https://www.youtube.com/@ahmadireligion
But behind the apocalyptic pronouncements lies a disturbing reality, according to former members. Allegations of sexual coercion, arranged marriages, and demands for absolute financial devotion paint a grim picture of life within the cult’s walls. Hashem’s teachings also veer into the bizarre, incorporating space aliens, the Illuminati, and the outlandish notion of human-sized rabbits on other planets who keep humans as pets. Adding to the unsettling nature of the group, new recruits are reportedly subjected to a blood oath ritual, their blood mixed in a jar kept within a replica of the Ark of the Covenant.
“Accepting this covenant is the only thing that will save you from the punishment which is about to come down upon mankind,” Hashem declared in a chilling address to his followers. He portrays COVID-19 as just the beginning, warning of worse plagues and global wars where “people will eat people out of hunger.” His pronouncements of a coming “flood of blood,” not water, paint a vivid and terrifying picture for his adherents.
Hashem positions himself as the Mahdi, the prophesied savior in Islamic tradition who appears in the end times to restore justice. Caroline Hoeren, the group’s head of legal, states that belief in and obedience to Hashem are paramount for salvation and the creation of a “utopian society.” This belief system demands complete dedication, with Hashem explicitly asking followers to “sell their homes, come be a part of the community, and follow me,” prioritizing him and the group’s mission above their own families. Many have reportedly liquidated their assets and donated everything to their self-proclaimed prophet.
Adding to the messianic claims are purported miracles. Videos circulated by the group feature followers testifying to Hashem’s ability to resurrect the dead, cure terminal illnesses, and even make the moon disappear. One woman claimed to have witnessed angels flying to attest to his divinity, while another recounted seeing him transform leaves into living creatures.
However, the seemingly devout community harbors darker secrets. Former senior member “Yasir” revealed that Hashem arranged numerous marriages within the group. More disturbingly, several former female members allege sexual coercion at Hashem’s hands. “Mylan,” who lived with the community in Germany for four years, claims two women filed police complaints against Hashem for manipulation and coercion. Franck, another former member from the German community, created a website detailing these allegations, including a disturbing account of Hashem demanding oral sex from a married woman as “forgiveness” for alleged sexual thoughts.
The group’s sacred text, The Goal of the Wise, further delves into disturbing territory, claiming that in their version of paradise, “boys are ‘also for sex’ for both ‘men and the women'” and that “there is no right or wrong.”
The control exerted by Hashem appears absolute. “Abdullah told me to put my arm in a cutting machine,” Mylan recounted. “He told another member to jump from a third-story building and someone else to jump into the fire.” Yasir also revealed an instance where Hashem allegedly instructed him and another member to murder someone. Franck corroborated this atmosphere of fear and obedience, stating that members are encouraged to report on each other, and those suspected of doubt are spied upon.
The disappearance of Lisa Wiese, the German wife of Hashem’s brother, adds another layer of unease. She vanished in India in 2019 while traveling with one of Hashem’s closest disciples and has never been seen again. Yasir claims Wiese had become disillusioned with the group before her disappearance.
The story takes an even more bizarre turn when examining the past of the two men at the helm of this alleged doomsday cult. Abdullah Hashem and Joseph McGowen met in high school in Mooresville, Indiana, bonding over filmmaking and esoteric interests. They even made a comedy film that played in local cinemas.
Their shared passion led them down a peculiar path. In 2005, they infiltrated the Raelian movement, a UFO religion, under the guise of making a documentary. Their exposé led to a lawsuit from the Raelians. Undeterred, they went on to document Prophet Yahweh, a leader who claimed to summon UFOs. Their stated mission was to “debunk the false prophet, UFO phenomenon” and prevent people, especially children, from being “sucked in” by such groups. Hashem even declared, “We are like CIA agents for God; we’re on the front lines, and we have to do what’s necessary to expose these frauds.”
However, around 2008, Hashem’s focus shifted towards conspiracy theories, producing films about reptilian shapeshifters and the New World Order. McGowen, at one point, seemingly had a falling out with Hashem, even warning of Hashem’s “God complex” in online posts.
The trajectory took its most dramatic turn when Hashem left the U.S. for Egypt and became involved with Ahmed al-Hassan, a self-proclaimed messiah. McGowen eventually joined him. By 2015, Hashem had broken away to form his own group, the Black Banners of the East, eventually morphing into the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light.
Now, the men who once sought to expose cults are accused of leading one themselves. Their past experience in understanding and documenting the inner workings of fringe religious movements may have inadvertently provided them with the very tools to build their own.
The Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light, despite its unorthodox beliefs that deviate significantly from traditional Islam, has gained a global following through sophisticated media outreach. However, their beliefs have also led to persecution in some Muslim countries.
Adding another layer of concern is the group’s recent activity in the United States. They are registered as a religious organization in Nevada and have expressed interest in building a commune reminiscent of Rajneeshpuram, even discussing having their own police and weapons.
The story of Abdullah Hashem and Joseph McGowen is a chilling cautionary tale. How did two young men dedicated to exposing what they saw as dangerous cults allegedly transform into the leaders of one themselves? As their movement continues to grow and their apocalyptic rhetoric intensifies, the world watches with growing unease at this doomsday cult seemingly taking over the world, one follower at a time.

Protecting Our Kids: Trump Admin Takes Action with New Whistleblower Tip Line Against Child Sex Changes

(Published: April 19, 2025)

The fight to protect children from irreversible medical procedures just gained a powerful new tool. Under President Trump, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has established a critical whistleblower tip line aimed squarely at stopping the chemical and surgical sex changes being performed on minors.

This action directly enforces the President’s executive order, “Protecting Children From Chemical and Surgical Mutilation.” Concerned citizens, healthcare workers, and others now have a dedicated, official channel to report the administration of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or sex change surgeries on children.

Standing Up for Whistleblowers and Religious Freedom

HHS isn’t just asking for reports; it’s promising protection for those brave enough to speak out. The department has clearly stated its commitment “to protecting whistleblowers to the full extent of the law.”

This promise is already being put into action. HHS recently launched a probe into a major children’s hospital, investigating allegations that it fired a nurse for exercising her federally protected conscience rights. The nurse reportedly requested a religious accommodation, refusing to administer puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones due to her deeply held beliefs about the sterilizing impact of these interventions on children.

Many believe the nurse involved is Vanessa Sivadge, formerly of Texas Children’s Hospital, who courageously testified before Congress this week about her experience.

Anthony Archeval, the Acting HHS OCR Director, affirmed the department’s resolve: “The Department will robustly enforce Federal laws protecting these courageous whistleblowers, including laws that protect health care professionals from being forced to violate their religious beliefs or moral convictions.”

Your Voice Matters: Report Concerns Now

This initiative provides a vital avenue for safeguarding children. If you have information about chemical or surgical interventions being performed on minors in violation of these protections, HHS encourages you to use the new system.

Scouting the Awake Isles: Searching for Conscious Community Across Britain and Ireland?

By Daniel Joseph Leach Jr.

Something is stirring across these isles.

A quiet awakening.

A knowing in the bones.

It’s time for change.

“I’ve felt it for a while now. With my youngest child aboutt to step out of “the system,” I know the time has come. I’m setting off on scouting missions this summer—searching for places and people who are awake. Awake to truth. Awake to freedom. Awake to life lived differently.

Here’s what you’ll discover. If you’re on this path too, maybe we’ll cross trails.” Jamie Bartlett https://www.facebook.com/share/1XRawMXeRY/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Mid Wales: Quiet Power in the Hills

Mid Wales holds deep, old wisdom. Machynlleth is a beacon of alternative thinking, with the Centre for Alternative Technology symbolizing a different way forward. In nearby Llanidloes and Llandrindod Wells, you’ll find small pockets of off-gridders, land-workers, and homeschoolers quietly building the new.

The Beautiful North: Seeds of Change

Up in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire, the counterculture thrives openly—artists, healers, free thinkers gather here. Further down, Totnes (Devon) might be a bit gentrified now, but its roots in the Transition Towns movement still pulse beneath the surface.

Scotland: Wild Land, Free Spirits

Scotland offers both space and spirit. At Findhorn Ecovillage, intentional community is a living, breathing reality. In Argyll and Bute, Lochaber, and the Isle of Mull, seekers are returning to the land and building sovereign lives.

Northern Ireland: Embers Glowing

In places like Fermanagh and Down, new communities are quietly forming. Telegram groups are buzzing. Meetups are sprouting. It’s not loud—but something’s building. The spirit here is raw and ready.

Ireland (Republic): West Cork and the Northwest

West Cork is awake. From Skibbereen to Clonakilty, people are growing food, raising kids outside the system, and living intentionally. Up north in Sligo, Leitrim, and Galway, land projects and freedom-focused collectives are on the rise.

Isle of Man: Sovereign, Subtle, Strong

This island may fly under the radar, but it draws those seeking privacy and sovereignty. The communities are quieter, less organized—but the energy is there. A place worth watching… or visiting.

Finding the Awake

This isn’t something you’ll find in a brochure. But if you’re looking, here are a few ways to connect:

People’s Health Alliance UK – A grassroots movement linking awake health and community hubs. Telegram – Look up your area plus “awake,” “off-grid,” or “freedom.” Freedom Cells – Local groups focused on mutual aid and sovereignty. Awake Communities Alliance, Earth Cures, and others are lighting the path.

The Road Ahead

This summer, I’ll be hitting the road—scouting, connecting, sharing. Not just for myself, but for all of us who feel the pull.

If you know of an awake pub, a conscious community centre, a regenerative farm, a homeschooling village, or just a place with heart—reach out. Let’s build the map. Let’s build the new way.

This isn’t the end of a story. It’s the beginning of a return.

In terms of places across the British Isles that resonate with awake, conscious, community-driven energy, here are some leads and thoughts you might want to scout out this summer:

1. Mid Wales

Machynlleth has long had a reputation as a hub for alternative lifestyles, eco-consciousness, and off-grid communities. The Centre for Alternative Technology is nearby, and the area has an open-minded, earthy vibe. Around Llanidloes and Llandrindod Wells, you’ll find small but strong networks of homeschoolers, land workers, and freedom-focused folk.

2. The North (England)

Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire has a strong countercultural streak, known for its creativity, alternative schooling, and community spirit. There’s been a revival in intentional living and regenerative projects. Totnes in Devon is farther south, but worth mentioning—it was a birthplace of the Transition Towns movement.

3. Scotland

The Highlands and Islands are dotted with self-sufficient, close-knit communities. Think Findhorn Ecovillage—a spiritual, ecological intentional community in Moray. Areas around Argyll and Bute, and Lochaber, have growing networks of people moving off-grid and exploring new systems of living.

4. Northern Ireland

It’s a bit quieter on the awake front, but there are intentional communities and holistic farms starting to pop up in places like Fermanagh and Down. Freedom-focused meetups have started taking root post-2020.

5. Ireland (Republic)

West Cork is a big hub for freedom-minded folks—artists, permaculturists, off-gridders. Areas like Skibbereen, Clonakilty, and Bantry are rich with conscious community energy. Sligo, Leitrim, and Galway have growing circles of homesteaders and those withdrawing from mainstream systems.

6. Isle of Man

It’s under the radar but has attracted people looking for privacy and alternative ways of living. There’s a quiet but solid expat and sovereign-living crowd—though more scattered than organized.

Ideas to Connect:

Look up “People’s Health Alliance UK” or “Awake Communities Alliance”—they’re building a grassroots network of awake hubs and services. Telegram has tons of local “awake” groups by region. Earth Cures, Open Communities, and FreeDom Cells often share scouting tips for finding likeminds.

If you’re doing scouting missions, you might consider documenting them—maybe as a blog, video diary, or podcast. It could inspire others on the same journey and help you build a broader network.

Alright Daniel—here it is!

The Awake Isles Project: Scouting Conscious Communities Across Britain & Ireland

By Daniel Joseph Leach Jr.

Something is stirring across these isles.

A quiet awakening.

A knowing in the bones.

It’s time for change.

I’ve felt it for a while now. With my youngest child soon stepping out of “the system,” I know the time has come. This summer, I’m setting off on a series of scouting missions—searching for places and people who are awake. Awake to truth. Awake to freedom. Awake to life lived differently.

Here’s what I’ve discovered so far. If you’re on this path too, maybe we’ll cross trails.

Mid Wales: Quiet Power in the Hills

West Cork—Skibbereen, Clonakilty, Bantry—is a magnet for permaculturists, holistic practitioners, and families seeking sovereignty. The northwest—Leitrim, Sligo, Galway—also holds promise, with land projects and cooperative networks on the rise.

Isle of Man: Subtle and Sovereign

[Insert image: quiet rural scene, maybe with sheep or a stone cottage]

The Isle of Man may not be widely known for alternative living, but it’s attracted seekers looking for a quieter, more sovereign life. While less organized, the energy is palpable.

This shocking allegation has sparked significant discussions across social media platforms, with supporters rallying around the “Free John Flynn” campaign. We explore Flynn’s conservative policy positions, including immigration reform, government accountability, and healthcare advocacy, while examining the grassroots efforts to bring attention to his plight. Is Flynn a victim of lawfare, or is there more to the story? Join us as we uncover the facts. http://FreeJohnFlynn.com

Recent social media posts and online discussions have raised concerns about John Flynn, a political activist and 2024 Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate from Connecticut, alleging that he is being “medically kidnapped” by the state. These claims suggest that the state’s medical system is detaining Flynn against his will, a tactic referred to as “lawfare.” 

Supporters have initiated campaigns advocating for Flynn’s release, including social media groups and posts calling attention to his situation. For instance, a Facebook page titled “Free John Flynn” has been created to disseminate information and mobilize support. 

However, it’s important to note that these allegations primarily stem from social media sources and lack verification from authoritative news outlets or official statements. As of now, no credible evidence has been presented to substantiate the claims of medical kidnapping.

Given the seriousness of such allegations, it’s advisable to approach the information with caution and seek updates from reliable news sources or official channels to obtain accurate and verified details about John Flynn’s situation.

John Flynn, a Republican from Norwalk, Connecticut, was a candidate for the U.S. Senate in the 2024 election cycle. He positioned himself as an advocate for conservative principles, emphasizing policies such as stricter immigration controls and opposing Connecticut’s status as a sanctuary state.

Policy Positions:

• Immigration: Flynn prioritized securing U.S. borders and opposed Connecticut’s designation as a sanctuary state, aligning with his “America First” stance.

• Government Reform: He advocated for defending elections from foreign and domestic threats, introducing term limits for senators, and ensuring accountability in law enforcement. 

• Foreign Policy: Flynn expressed support for maintaining strong alliances with pro-Israel policies, reflecting his commitment to securing Christian values. 

• Healthcare: He aimed to promote affordable healthcare solutions that respect personal freedoms. 

• Taxation: Flynn opposed the introduction of additional taxes, particularly during challenging times such as the pandemic. 

• Technology and Health: He raised concerns about the potential health risks associated with 5G technology, specifically regarding exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation. 

Campaign History:

During the Republican state convention held on May 13, 2024, at Central Connecticut State University, Flynn received minimal delegate support, securing only eight votes. This was insufficient to meet the 15% threshold required to qualify for the primary ballot. Consequently, he did not appear on the ballot for the Republican primary on August 13, 2024. 

Flynn’s campaign was notable for its grassroots approach, leveraging social media platforms, particularly his X (formerly Twitter) handle @Flynn2022, to disseminate his policy positions and engage with supporters. Despite his efforts, the campaign faced challenges in gaining significant traction within the state’s Republican landscape.

For more detailed information on John Flynn’s campaign and policy positions, you can refer to his campaign website and his profile on Ballotpedia.

Trump gone wild! Mad man drops bombs!

Over the weekend President Trump ordered a massive military operation against the small country of Yemen. Was Yemen in the process of attacking the United States? No. Did the President in that case go to Congress and seek a declaration of war against the country? No. The fact is, Yemen hadn’t even threatened the United States before the bombs started falling.

Last year, candidate Trump strongly criticized the Biden Administration’s obsession with foreign interventionism to the detriment of our problems at home. In an interview at the Libertarian National Convention, he criticized Biden’s warmongering to podcaster Tim Pool, saying, “You can solve problems over a telephone. Instead they start dropping bombs. Recently, they’re dropping bombs all over Yemen. You don’t have to do that.”

Yet once in office, Trump turned to military force as his first option. Since the Israel/Hamas ceasefire plan negotiated by President Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff, Yemen has left Red Sea shipping alone. However, after Israel implemented a total blockade of humanitarian relief to citizens of Gaza last week, Houthi leaders threatened to again begin blocking Israel’s Red Sea shipping activities.

That was enough for President Trump to drop bombs and launch missiles for hours, killing several dozen Yemeni civilians – including women and children – in the process.

After the attack, Trump not only threatened much more force to be used against Yemen, but he also threatened Iran. His National Security Advisor Mike Waltz added that the US may start bombing Iranian ships in the area, a move that would certainly lead to a major Middle East war.

Like recent Presidents Bush and Obama, candidate Trump promised peace after four years of Joe Biden’s warmongering and World War III brinkmanship. There is little doubt that with our war-weary population this proved the margin of his victory. Unfortunately, as with Bush and Obama, now that he is President, he appears to be heading down a different path.

The Republican Party is gradually becoming a pro-peace, America first party, but the warmongers and neocons of the old line in the Party are not going to let go so easily. Unfortunately many of these dead-enders have found their way to senior positions in Trump’s Administration, with voices of restraint and non-intervention nearly nowhere in sight among his top tier of advisors.

To solve the Yemen problem we must understand it: Russian and Chinese ships, for example, are not being threatened because they are not enabling the Israeli demolition of Gaza. The slaughter there has been facilitated with US money and US weapons. It is the US doing Israel’s bidding both in Gaza and in the Red Sea that is painting a target on us and unnecessarily putting our troops at risk of retaliation.

The US government, starting with Biden and continuing now with Trump, seems eager to make this our war even though, as Rep. Thomas Massie pointed out over the weekend, Red Sea shipping is of minor importance to the US economy.

In a real “America first” foreign policy we would be following the Russian and Chinese lead and staying out of the conflict. It’s not our war. End US military involvement in the Middle East and our troubles disappear. It really is that simple.
