Nothing should surprise anyone. Not at this point in history. Not if they have lived 50 plus years. Not if they are Bible fluent, born again, and live for Christ. This world has increased in evil. Evil, for a long time now, no longer slinks about. Hides in the dark. Behind closed doors. In the damp, rat-infested alleyways. Evil is emboldened. Screaming in the daylight. In your face. Constantly. Growing bolder, louder, more violent. The lies are more cunning. I haven’t quoted this verse for a while. I had been doing it almost daily for months, but the truth is, evil has made Isaiah 5:20 become a daily reality;
“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
People are complacent. People don’t pay attention. Or if we are, even with the best of sources, we’re only receiving a small percentage of the whole event, situation, or story. This is why to subsist on a diet of broadcast news in America is to be malnourished and anemic of anything real, true, or consisting of any depth. It’s all massaged. Edited. Given priority according to a producer, a news chief, and who knows who they are, what their beliefs, views, and agenda are?
What to do as the world falls apart before our eyes and ears? As entropy accelerates as never before in world history, are you aware that 2025, so far, is the bloodiest, deadliest year in world history for Christians? And we have about 6 more weeks to go, and the slaughter isn’t over.
Nothing should surprise anyone at this point. Not if they have lived 50 plus years. Not if they are Bible fluent, born again, and live for Christ. Even if having lived 50 plus years and being the greatest heathen unbeliever on earth. Nothing should surprise anyone.
I’ve lived long enough to see more history in just shy of 73 years than people who lived 900 years long ago witnessed. Do you understand and believe that? I’m old enough to see the first commercial jet fleet introduced in America by Boeing. We went as a family to the airport where one was parked, and we stood in line, with thousands of other people, just to be able to walk up to it and see it. Imagine that. Does anyone look up in the sky anymore? We used to. All the time. I’ve witnessed in my life many major diseases eradicated. And new ones crop up. Open heart surgery — I remember watching the news when the first one was reported. I was alive, in the 5th grade, on the Friday when John Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. I was home, since there was no school, being the weekend, when I saw Lee Harvey Oswald get fatally shot by Jack Ruby on live TV. On our 19″ black and white portable TV. LIVE on TV. There was no 7-second delay. I saw it as it happened.
Man on the moon. Summer of love. British Invasion. Free love. Drugs. Protests. Riots. Increased violence. Increased promicuity. Increased rebellion. Rise of communism, rise of fascism, rise of socialism. Breakdown of the family, wolves enter the church, unsound different gospels, false gospels increase — not a new phenomenon — more assassinations along the way, more lies, more people, more evil.
And that was just the first 20 years of my life, or so!
Come on! Out of the stupor. Out of neutral. Complacency. Auto-pilot. Out of the rut and all the assumptions.
Too many are of the dulled mind that just because something has never happened, it never can happen. How absurd is that!?
Think! Pay attention, folks.
Life, contrary to the lies, is not a game. It isn’t who has the most toys that wins. This isn’t a joke, a party, a one-time go round, and then it’s all over. This is just the overture. This is just a wisp of a moment before each individual’s eternity begins.
Yeah.
Think about that. What’s that? Don’t want to? That’s been the major problem all along and why we presently are where we are, and why every word within the Word of God is true, being fulfilled, and will be fulfilled.
We live in perilous times. We live in the most interesting of times yet. We live in historical Biblical times. We are all living in the very last of the last days as this world has been known.

Silent Pulpits, Celebrating Evil, And A New Level Of Delusion: Ten Things I Could Never Have Imagined Seeing In My Lifetime
November 11, 2025
By Jan Markell
Reprinted from Harbinger’s Daily
Be honest. You’re seeing things every day that you didn’t think you would see in your lifetime! It must be the last days. Up is down, and black is white. Evil is good and good is evil. But some of these items listed, I never could have imagined. Here is just my latest short list of things I didn’t think I would see:
1) Per Tucker Carlson, I have a brain virus because I support Israel. Who could have imagined such an accusation? As a self-proclaimed Christian, Tucker surely doesn’t know the Bible, which is as pro-Israel as you can get! “He that keeps Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps.” (Psalm 121:4) Nor does he understand the word “irrevocable” (Romans 11:29), which tells us God keeps His promises (to the Jews).
2) I never thought that I would get worn out, exhausted, and depleted from warning the clueless that time is running out. This is a new level of delusional thinking that life will only get better despite all the biblical warnings. It’s all falling apart, folks, so that last day’s issues can fall into place! Happy days are only in eternity.
3) The fact that we keep celebrating evil is mind-blowing and the essence of perilous times: Israel’s October 7 and the election of a radical—Zohran Mamdani as NY City Mayor. It’s beyond our imagination. First we cheered for Hamas and now for Mamdani. Why do we keep having sympathy for the devil? I had hoped that died with the Rolling Stones. How will Mamdani honor the 25th anniversary of 9/11 next year? Does this bother anybody else?
4) I never thought I would see, and I can’t understand, why most churches stayed silent after October 7, but those same churches were silent after Charlie Kirk was assassinated in September of this year. What gives? Why will pulpits today not take a stand?
5) A violent school shooting—Annunciation Catholic School—transpired last August, a few miles from where I grew up in Minneapolis. The takeaway, sadly, was that no one should exercise “thoughts and prayers.” Not that blue cities like mine don’t work and that they draw criminals like a magnet. But that prayers were a worthless waste of time. Who could have imagined such a twisted conclusion? What a sign of the times! The predicted mockery is displayed.
6) I didn’t think I would live to see antisemitism become normalized and even celebrated post-WW2. Zohran Mamdani won his mayoral election because he hated Jews. It is the new normal. Will this drive more Jews to Israel? You can count on it. Once again, they are running for their lives because there is only one safe haven for them. That is how God designed it.
7) I couldn’t imagine the day when hundreds of thousands of Christians would be slaughtered in parts of Africa, and I would have to hunt for details. Why does no one care that over 200,000 have been killed? Since the victims weren’t Palestinians, I guess no one cared. No Jews, no news.
8) I still can’t believe that a new study from George Barna’s Cultural Research Center reveals that millions of Americans no longer see many behaviors once considered sinful as wrong at all. In short, the very definition of sin is being rewritten. Mankind has become its own priest, pastor, prophet, and moral authority, and all are doing what is right in their own eyes. (Judges 17:6; Deut.12:8).
9) I didn’t think I would see the fulfillment of the red-green alliance—Islam and Marxism merging in my lifetime. Forget New York, my hometown, Minneapolis, barely dodged another Islamic mayoral victory. Our “Little Mogadishu” hosts almost 100,000 Muslims here in town and elects and celebrates Ilhan Omar. Twenty-four years after 9/11, the country is saying “Allah Akbar” in too many places. How about the global shia Islamic center now open in Houston? How have we allowed this? My friend, Phil Haney, warned us but he was mysteriously bumped off right after I met with him in 2021. Did you notice Al Qaeda made it into the White House on November 10?
10) And I never thought I would see prophecy conferences across America and the world close one-by-one. Covid did terrible damage and brought mine to an end a few years ago. But they continue to fall due to lack of interest, age of attendees, and the fact that so few comprehend the lateness of the hour so attendance has been sinking!
So, these are just ten points in my latest list of things I didn’t expect to see! But one thing never changes: the fact that Jesus is coming again and we must not be silent. Somebody’s eternity depends on it.
In John 16:20-24, there was chaos, and the world rejoiced at the death of Jesus, just like the world rejoices at the evil today. Yet, there will come a time when people will rejoice because of God’s glorious promises coming to pass. The world is gloriously dark now because we are being prepared for the glorious Son of God who will bring great light.
