It isn’t, “Well, we don’t have to worry about that for a long time.”

It’s already here.

What’s that? The fact that today no one can believe what they see or what they hear. Due to the combination of current technology with the inherent evil within men and women. And let’s not pussyfoot around. Let’s not pretend or begin speaking and writing rubbish about it’s this, it’s that, it can’t be evil, it must be ____________.

No, it’s the inherent evil, the growing by the day evil, within the cold, dead, black hearts and minds of men and women on earth presently.

Only to become worse. Not better.

A person may, a person can have personal optimism. They can, they may, through their abilities, doing, faith, efforts, love, compassion, and inner traits, improve the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of their lives. But as a population, overall, it’s only going to become worse. Much, much worse. Anyone even remotely aware, anyone keen in observing and remembering must conclude it’s all — all in a state of decline. Erosion. The entropy is increasing. The rot and stench within the hearts of men and women is only rotting more, stinking more. It’s visible, it’s audible, it can even be smelled, the evil in the air.

Don’t expect a man, an election, a governmental system on earth to save you.

Only an abiding, true faith in the LORD Jesus Christ, Yeshua Hamashiac, can save anyone.

The following is our present. And next week? A month from now? Because technological advancements are moving THAT quickly.

No one can believe what they see, what they hear. As of today. Let that fact sink in. To all the naysayers of how nothing really changes, everything is fine, will be fine, it’s all good, and going to get better — whoever says that, thinks that, BE AWARE!

To those who have been misled and deluded by latter 20th and early 21st century rubbish, lies, and babel about “Do not judge!” you’d better come to discern well and wisely what Jesus was referring to, the context of Matthew 7:1 and then come to an understanding, discernment, that you’d better become adept, keen at judging all things well and wisely according to the Word of God.

Trusting in the Holy Spirit. Not in anything of man. For the Scriptures tell us that were the days not shortened, even the elect would become deceived by the great delusion that is present on the earth.

It’s here. It’s begun. And you’d better come to terms with it starting today. And grow stronger in Biblical wisdom, and closer to the LORD than ever. Because it isn’t going to get better.

Not according to me. According to the Word of God.

We’re One Deepfake Away From A Digital Point Of No Return

July 10, 2025

A quiet but deeply unsettling breach in diplomatic integrity recently occurred, and it should serve as a thunderclap warning to the rest of us: we are just one deepfake away from an international crisis that could reshape how we live, work, and move through the online world.

In June 2025, foreign officials received Signal messages from what appeared to be U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. These weren’t generic phishing attempts or obvious scams. They included AI-generated voice messages, realistic branding mimicking “state.gov” communication, and highly credible language. The targets? A member of Congress, a U.S. governor, and at least three foreign ministers.

Though the U.S. State Department was quick to downplay the event, a classified diplomatic cable revealed serious concern: not only had high-level foreign policy contacts been tricked, but the incident reflected a rapidly evolving threat–AI-driven impersonation with real-world influence. What was once the stuff of spy thrillers is now a credible method of social engineering that could tip the balance in diplomacy, markets, or even national security.

Deepfakes: From Curious Toy to Dangerous Tool

The Rubio impersonation is not an isolated case. Earlier this year, a finance manager at a multinational firm in Hong Kong was duped into transferring $25 million after joining a Zoom call filled with familiar colleagues–none of whom were real. Each was generated by AI, complete with facial expressions, gestures, and matching voices. By the time the fraud was uncovered, the money had vanished.

These examples illustrate a terrifying truth: synthetic deception isn’t just possible–it’s effective.

AI-generated videos and audio clips have already been used to manipulate public opinion, spread disinformation, and exploit individuals.

And now we’ve crossed into even more serious territory: diplomatic manipulation.

The Potential for Catastrophe

If one deepfake can trick foreign ministers, imagine what a truly sophisticated campaign could do. Consider these hypothetical–but entirely plausible–scenarios:

Stock Market Manipulation: A deepfake video of a Federal Reserve official announcing a surprise rate hike goes viral. Automated trading bots react within seconds, tanking markets before a correction can be issued. Billions are lost in minutes.

Military Escalation: A video surfaces of a world leader declaring war–seemingly verified, spreading across social platforms before authorities can deny it. One misinterpreted signal could prompt a retaliatory strike, costing lives.

National Emergencies: A deepfake emergency broadcast warns citizens to evacuate a major city due to a fake nuclear threat. Panic erupts. Infrastructure is overwhelmed. Real lives are endangered over a fabrication.

Criminal Fraud & Pranks: A TikTok creator uses AI to impersonate a celebrity and “confesses” to a crime or leaks a scandal. The video goes viral, sponsors are dropped, and reputations destroyed–all for clicks and ad revenue.

We’ve already seen how easily people fall for impersonations. What happens when these tools are used in real-time, at scale, with malicious intent?

What Comes Next: Digital ID as the “Solution”

Here lies the chilling part. When a catastrophic deepfake finally hits–when it shakes markets, prompts military action, or triggers a crisis–the public will demand a fix. The most likely answer? Centralized digital identity verification.

Governments and tech firms are already preparing this future. The European Union is pushing its Digital Identity Wallet, intended to unify access to banking, healthcare, and government services. In the U.S., biometric authentication and encrypted digital credentials are gaining traction as solutions to fraud.

After a major deepfake incident, such systems won’t be optional–they’ll be mandatory. Pitched as a matter of “national security” or “public trust,” centralized ID systems will likely be implemented across platforms. You’ll need to verify your identity not just for banking or travel–but to post, comment, email, or even access parts of the internet.

This is how freedoms shift–not with a vote, but with a crisis.

A Digital Point of No Return

The Rubio deepfake incident is a warning shot. It shows us that AI-generated deception isn’t speculative anymore–it’s here. It can reach the halls of power. It can fool governors, foreign leaders, and possibly you.

We are one major incident away–one forged message, one fake voice, one viral lie–from a digital catastrophe. And when that moment comes, the global response will fundamentally reshape our rights, our privacy, and our online presence.

We will be told it’s for our safety. And many will cheer.

But the deeper truth is this: what we cannot trust, we will try to control. And in that effort, we may surrender more than we expect.

So the question is no longer whether a deepfake could cause a crisis.

It’s what we’ll become after it does.
