We have Spielberg's "Disclosure day" movie coming out, and now this guy is going to "blow the whistle" on all the alien stuff. This month, Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tennessee) did some interviews along the same lines telling people they wouldnt be able to sleep at night if they heard what he had been briefed on. Of course this is all soft disclosure before hard disclosure takes place. What is all this "alien" stuff and why the full court press on it right now? Because the "alien thing" is the number one candidate for this:
2 Thess 2:5
5Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? 6And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. 7For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. 9The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, 10and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
^^^This is the great deception, the powerful delusion for those who perish because they refuse to believe the truth.
Now, we do not know when the Lord is coming back unexpectedly for us, but we can read the signs of the times.
Matt 16
2He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’ 3and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. a 4A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Jesus then left them and went away.
The sign of Jonah has been given to this generation. It took place during the "great American eclipse" of 2024 where multiple (11?) or more cities literally named Nineveh were directly crossed overhead by the eclipse.
Ok, great, again, what does all this mean? It means we don't have forever to get our jobs done here on earth. We are to level up into the best versions of ourselves centered in our Lord's Will for the purpose of doing His Perfect Will here on earth which is to preach the Good News and save souls. Our Lord Jesus Christ died for all in love and mercy. He still has a heart to save. We remain in the Age of Grace which means today is the day of salvation.
2 Cor 6:2
For he says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.
What we are going to do, we need to do now. We cannot assume we have tomorrow. Nobody is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow so today is the day to get things done. What if the Lord does come back unexpected for His Church this year? Is it possible? You bet it is. Do we know when He will do it? Absolutely not. We are not predicting, we are preparing day in and day out just like Noah prepared for the flood and the wise virgins prepared for the Bridegroom in Matt 25.
All of this soft disclosure is psychological, mental, emotional, spiritual preparation of the battlefield which is a combat tactic used routinely by our own military. In short, this is war. On the other side of what "they" are doing, our Lord has been busy over the period of years now preparing believers to check out of this world while at the same time taking care of His business here on earth which we will continue to do until we are pulled out of here. The scamdemic which is already 5-6 years old depending on when we want to start measuring was the start of the end time hard push for the finish line. Our God has been preparing us precisely along the lines of Matt 25 the parable of the talents, and the parable of the virgins to do the things He has empowered, gifted us to do in preparation for what is coming. He has sent signs like the Great American Eclipse, the lunar tetrads etc to get our attention. Now He is busy with a concentration on a great spiritual awakening, repentance and revival in the Church and a comprehensive course in what it means to love and what the consequences will be for those who refuse to love (according to how He defines it, not what they "feel").
Love is the capstone, it is the beginning and the end. It is the whole Christian enchilada on one plate:
1. The Definition and Supremacy of Love (1 Corinthians 13 – Unchanged Core)
¹ If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. ² If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. ³ If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
⁴ Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. ⁵ It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. ⁶ Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. ⁷ It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
⁸ Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. ⁹ For we know in part and we prophesy in part, ¹⁰ but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. ¹¹ When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. ¹² For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
¹³ And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
2. God Is Love – The Source and Essence of All True Love (1 John 4–5)
⁷ Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. ⁸ Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. ⁹ This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. ¹⁰ This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. ¹¹ Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. ¹² No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
¹³ This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit... ¹⁶ And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them... ¹⁸ There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear... ¹⁹ We love because he first loved us. ²⁰ Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar... ²¹ And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
1 John 5:1–3 ¹ Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well. ² This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands. ³ In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands...

A Unified Biblical Picture
The Bible reveals love as:
- God’s eternal nature (“God is love” – the only time Scripture directly equates God with an attribute).
- Initiated by God — He loved us first, demonstrated supremely in the cross while we were still sinners.
- Sacrificial and active — Not just feelings, but laying down one’s life, serving, forgiving, and doing good.
- The fulfillment of all law and prophecy — Everything hangs on loving God wholly and loving neighbor as self.
- The identifying mark of disciples — The world knows we belong to Jesus by our love for one another.
- Perfect, fearless, and everlasting — It drives out fear, never fails, and binds all virtues together.
Love is both the greatest commandment and the greatest gift. Without it, even the most impressive spiritual acts are empty. With it, we reflect the very heart of God.
So, in short the Lord has been preparing His people in parallel to this world preparing its people for what is coming. One does not have to be a prophet to see what is coming. The Lord told us clearly what is coming. Now we finish preparation and maintain watchfulness and readiness to both do our jobs here on earth and meet the Lord when He shouts for us to meet Him in the clouds.
