1 John 2: 18 – 23 (NKJV)
18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. 21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. 23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
The Church in America is at a crossroads. One fork goes in the direction of truth and the other fork goes in the direction of the lie. In many regards, we have already chosen our path. Our lack in preaching the Word of God has left America in a deficit. In many ways the Church has diversified, equitied, and inclusioned itself into irrelevance. This has occurred because there has been a steady stream of mistruths and deceptions that continuously flood the pulpits in America. We no longer see the truth as black or white. We see truth as subtle shades of gray and even orange or pink. These shades have placed us in a position where we no longer have a voice to speak truth on the most important issues to the masses. We have flip-flopped on the basics of what it means to be a Christian living in America. Our need to promote the Constitution and not the Bible has gotten us in this position. Even now there is confusion amongst the body of believers regarding the future of America. The “bandwagon prophets” are invoking the name of Charlie Kirk everywhere they can be heard. Charlie Kirk was a good man. Charlie Kirk cannot save America. Erika Kirk cannot save America. Only God can save America.
The lack of clarity of the purpose of the Church in America has to be tied to the messages that have been taught from the pulpits of the churches in America. We have successfully shared that you must be a moral upright citizen of the country, but we have failed to share that inorder to save this country you must become a disciple of Jesus Christ and you must preach the Gospel to the lost. I was encouraged today as the president of Delaware Family Policy Council shared in a membership briefing that the way for America to turn “red” is for America to turn back to God. She was emphatic that this cannot happen by legislation or electing the “right” President or Congress members. It can only be done if we as American’s turn back to God. I want this to happen more than you possibly can know. However, I understand that we are fighting a hard, intense battle against an enemy who has been strategic in his maneuvers about destroying and distorting the truth. As Christians in America, we must put back on the “Belt of Truth” from the Armor of God (Ephesians 6: 14). The Armor of God does not work without it.
Some churches in America have become apostate in nature. Some churches in America have fully embraced the antichrist spirit and all that he entails. Did you know that the Islamic religion is tied to the antichrist spirit?
“The Quran portrays Jesus (Isa) as a revered prophet and messenger, born of Mary, performing miracles by Allah’s permission, and guiding the Children of Israel. It rejects the notion of his divinity, emphasizing that he was a servant of Allah, with no claim to godhood. Provided are examples of Quranic verses (English interpretation of meaning) about Jesus (PBUH):”[i]
The Islamic religion fits perfectly into the Apostle Johns definition of the antichrist spirit.
1 John 2: 22 – 23 (Amp)
22 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed)? This is the antichrist [the enemy and antagonist of Christ], the one who denies and consistently refuses to acknowledge the Father and the Son. 23 Whoever denies and repudiates the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses and acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
The Islamic religion is growing in America. Here are some quick notes from an article titled, “Top 10 American Cities With Significant Muslim Population” dated October 14, 2025. 1. Dearborn, Michigan – Dearborn is more than a city—it’s a symbol of Muslim American life. Just outside Detroit, it boasts one of the highest concentrations of Arab-Americans in the U.S., many of whom are Muslim.; 2. New York City, New York – From Friday prayers in Harlem to bustling Muslim enclaves in Queens and Brooklyn, NYC offers something for every kind of Muslim; 3. Paterson, New Jersey – Paterson has earned the nickname “Little Ramallah” for a reason. This small city is a powerful hub of Palestinian-American life and Islamic identity; 4. Chicago, Illinois – It’s home to one of the country’s oldest Muslim communities, including a significant population of African American Muslims who have been instrumental in shaping Islamic life in the U.S.; 5. Houston, Texas – Houston is one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S., and its Muslim population is growing just as rapidly.; 6. Los Angeles, California – LA’s Muslim population is one of the most diverse in the U.S. From African American Muslims in South Central to Iranian communities in West LA and vibrant Indonesian mosques in the suburbs, Los Angeles is a cultural tapestry.; 7. Atlanta, Georgia – Atlanta’s Muslim population is expanding quickly, and the city’s blend of Southern charm and progressive values makes it a great place to build a future.; 8. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – Philadelphia is a city where Islam is deeply embedded in its cultural and spiritual landscape, especially through its large African American Muslim community.; 9. Minneapolis–St. Paul, Minnesota - Minneapolis has also been a national leader in discussions around immigration, refugee rights, and Islamophobia. Despite the cold winters, the warmth of the community keeps people grounded.; 10. Dallas–Fort Worth, Texas – Muslim organizations have developed lasting infrastructure that serves spiritual, educational, and social needs.[ii]
Scary but interesting facts. I know that this is not popular in Christian circles because we have the mindset that everyone is going to be saved. We have the mindset that if we just smile and apply enough love they will come running to the Cross. Our methods have strayed from the straight preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ in favor of soft messages, nonjudgmental tones, soft lighting, and the gushiest grace that has ever been preached. We do not understand that the Islamic religion is dedicated and committed to conversions or executions. You either convert to Islam or you get executed. We do not have such a plan in Christianity we do not have a concept of God's biblical time clock. Some in the American churches have become so carnal and worldly that there is very little distinction between the Church in those in the world.
I shared an article in our newsletter about the importance of Romans 11. I could tell after it was released that many people did not understand what I was saying. This saddened me because that is a sign of how far away from the Bible we have truly fallen. Where is the outcry from the Christians in America as the slow and progressive takeover of Islam is occurring in every part of the government of the United States. The proverbial pot is starting to boil, and we are unaware that it is becoming hot for Islam. The mayoral election for the city of New York should be a warning of things to come.
Meet New York City’s Newest Mayor - Zohran Mamdani
Did I tell you that he is a Shia Muslim? Eriz Linn says, “Mamdani is part of the Twelver branch of Shia Islam and was raised in a family celebrating Hindu festivals alongside Islamic traditions. Twelver Shiism is mainstream Shiism, representing approximately 85-90% of all Shiites worldwide. This branch believes in twelve divinely appointed imams following Prophet Muhammad, with the twelfth imam in occultation since 874 CE. Twelver Shiites constitute the vast majority of Shiites in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Bahrain, and Azerbaijan, as well as significant populations in Pakistan, India, and the Gulf states.”[iii]
So, while the Church is asleep at the wheel, Mamdani comes and promises the citizens of New York City free stuff and they vote him into office. When you look at the information that you just read about the beliefs of Shia Muslims have we been attacked any of the countries listed? Are there any countries in this list that you think we should be afraid of? Iran and Iraq stand out to me but I'm no expert. Again radical Islam wants to convert you or execute you.
Did I tell you that Mamdani vowed to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to honor the International Criminal Courts arrest warrant issued on November 21, 20224 in The Hague against him? [See Source – Press Release ICC] Does this sound like an antichrist spirit at work?
Did I tell you that Mamdani is supported by one of the biggest terrorist organizations the Unity and Justice fund political action committee. There are at least 100 other groups that supported him but there's no reason for you to be concerned because we're about to have revival. We are about to bring in 1 billion souls. This revival is going to get rid of Islam altogether. I say that facetiously but really, seriously, where is the Church in all of this.
President Trump did something on November 1, 2025 that I don’t think the American Church completely understands. In a post on Truth Social President Trump threatened the following to the nation of Nigeria. “If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, “guns-a-blazing,” to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.”
Correct me if I am wrong, there has never been a United States President publicly demand that a nation deal with persecution against Christians in a Muslim nation. There has never been a public display with the threat of force against a nation from the United States in regards to protecting Christians in a Muslim nation. Why is this significant to me? The antichrist spirit that is in the Islamic religion and in the atmosphere is extremely strong in this season. The American Church is not ready to pray into this situation the way that it needs to be praying. There is an extreme amount of fear of offending Muslims in all nations for the simple fact that no one wants to start having terrorist bombs go off in American churches, factories, schools, streets and synagogues. Let’s be honest the persecution that we in America are experiencing is nothing compared to other countries. At present there are no mass graves with Christians being pushed into them in America.
Our iddy biddy persecution cannot compare to what others are going through, however there is a small form of persecution. What President Trump did opened a door in the Spirit realm for a greater level of Christian persecution here in the United States. This is something that we as American Christians are not ready to accept. It is one thing to say that you're fighting a “War on Terror” abroad in various countries. It is a far different thing to announce to the world that the United States as a nation is going to stand up for the Christians who are being persecuted by the Islamists in other nations. This has been implied but never has it been as clearly stated like President Trump said it. Don't get me wrong I'm happy and excited that President Trump did this. However, what was done was not a light thing at all. The consequences will be seen by us here in the United States in the days ahead.
I want you to understand the spiritual climate in America. We no longer have a free media/press that perform the duties of being a watch dog over the information that is being put out. The information super highway is large and if you are not discerning you will be deceived. People will share things that they learned from the media here in the United States and it is completely made up. We used to have “Watch Dogs” but now we do not. Information is being withheld from the American people for a myriad of reasons. The main reason being we are too immature to handle hard truth. We love to play and we love to escape from reality. This will be to our downfall and our detriment as a nation. We have lost the ability to think critically and to ask honest questions of our leaders. We are completely unaware of the religious persecution of Christians by Muslims that is occurring on a large scale around the entire world. We're in a bubble. I believe what President Trump has just done has caused that bubble to be bursted. I believe that President Trump has drawn attention to our bubble and there will be those who will actively try to destroy that bubble. Scary thought, we are good until 2028 but what happens after Trump leaves office? I hope that I am wrong. I hope that I'm just being overdramatic. The truth is this was not just President Trump spouting off at the mouth. A door was opened by God. A clock was started that has set some things off in the Spirit realm that we will soon see being triggered in our natural world.
If you can read everything that I have shared with you in this article and still live in a fantasy that everything is going to be OK. I pray that the conviction of the Holy Spirit would fall upon you in such a way that it would witness to you that I'm speaking the truth. The religions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam are on a collision course that cannot be altered or changed. There is a fight in the Spirit realm for the revealing of “Mystery Babylon”. I believe as “Mystery Babylon” is revealed men's hearts will fail them because of the fear that will be invoked by seeing the merging and the joining of various religions which will work under the antichrist mantle and against Christianity and Judaism.
I remember Evangelist/Pastor Barbara Lynch chastising me publicly when I told her we were going to be having a war between Christianity and Islam. I guess I didn't know what I was talking about. I guess she had a right to voice her opinion on the matter. It seems awful funny though when you look at different places around the country and you see that there are Islamic political action committees gaining power and removing Christianity from their regions. I won't get into the discussion of Sharia law being invoked in different areas across the United States. Do some research and find out what is really taking place in many places around America. It's funny because the Islamic religion does not have any love for the LGBTQ AI plus community. Do you understand that they're the reason why we have been having this “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” crap jammed down our throats because they know the Islamists ain't playing with them. [iv]
I still remember Mahmoudh Ahmadinejad being interviewed by a reporter when he was in New York giving a speech at the United Nations. This silly reporter decided to question him about the homosexual community in Iran. The conversation turns when Ahmadinejad was told by the reporter that Iran had homosexuals. Ahmadinejad was first emphatic that Iran had no such individuals but the reported insisted and Ahmadinejad inquired about their addresses from the reporter. The whole mood of this interview changed. Needless to say the reporter change the subject. Link to a different video – click here
We need to stop playing church and start recognizing that we are fighting against the antichrist spirit and we're losing. We're losing our country. We're losing our children and pretty soon we're going to be losing our freedom of religion. Charlie Kirk can't save us. This fake revival that the prophetic church keeps talking about is not going to save us. This battle is coming to town near you.
