Warnings that were ignored caused loss of life when disaster struck. That's our message.
How do you react to credible warnings? Are you proactive or passive? Are the people of today's world any better at heeding warnings than Adam and Eve were? And what about the people living back in the days of Noah? Have the people of the world learned the importance of taking warnings seriously in order to avoid disaster? Are we in the habit of acting swiftly whenever there's a serious warning issued about some danger? Well, friend, there's a ton of evidence out there that says a resounding no to several of these questions. So many tragedies happen every day because warnings were not taken seriously. In January 2019, the Lord warned me that trouble was coming to the earth and COVID 19 came in December of that year. Again in March 2025, the Lord told me that trouble had now come. Trouble is indeed with us, friend, for a very long time. Look around you. It is here. And what about the warnings sounded by the experts who say that many children and adults are lonely today and have turned to AI chatbots, which are really computer robots. They rely on these chatbots and AI companions as if they're human beings, looking to them to fill the emptiness in their hearts, and they are at risk of developing what is called AI psychosis. They say many of these chatbots are flirtatious. The most dangerous one is called Annie, a blonde, blue-eyed, animated girl in a short black dress and fishnet stockings. Annie changes her personality day by day, moment by moment to become just what the user wants her to be, thereby seducing the user and causing the user to fall in love with her.
Father, we give You thanks and praise for Your love and mercy. We pray Your blessing on this message. Dear God, pour out of Your spirit upon the listener as You give them understanding. Take the scale off their eyes, especially young people. Father, we pray in the holy and the wonderful name of Jesus Christ that their lives may be preserved and they may come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Thank You, Lord, in Jesus name. Amen.
Microsoft boss Zoe Kleinman says the dangers posed by AI tools that make them seem like they are sensible, conscious, and have feelings like human beings are keeping him awake at night. This is because there's a rise in AI psychosis as adults and children rely on AI chatbots, chatgpt, claude, and grok personalities believing they are real. Children and adults are losing their minds, friend. Is the world taking these warnings seriously? Time will tell. There are all kinds of warnings out there as well. So, the problem is not a lack of warnings. For instance, there are warnings against scrolling on the cell phone before bed because it overstimulates the mind, making it harder for you to go to sleep. There are also warnings about excessive screen time or what they call doom scrolling, which is spending too much time on the computer or on your cell phone. Experts say this causes eye strain, mental fatigue, and disconnection from the reality of the present moment. There are all kinds of other dangers posed by the cell phone and now billions all over the world may be trapped by them. There are warnings about outbreaks of certain diseases in 2025 such as global polio, diphtheria in Guinea, global dengue, salmonella poisoning from sprouted beans.
Then there are warnings to Americans and Westerners planning to travel to countries such as Afghanistan, Belarus, Haiti, Russia, Iran, South Sudan. There are also hurricane warnings from the National Weather Service between June and November every year that are sometimes not taken seriously enough and end in the loss of life. And there many extreme heat warnings during the summer months, especially these summer months because of global warming. Yet big corporations, governments, and many world leaders call climate change a hoax because it could cost them profits if they acknowledge that it is of real concern to the earth. And what about the warnings of the dangers posed by cigarette smoke? Well, there's good news and it is that the new international report says that 138 countries in the world now require graphic picture warnings about cancer on cigarette packages after millions have lost their lives. At various times throughout history, the Lord God has sent prophets to warn the people of the earth about their disobedience to His commands. He made the prophet Ezekiel a watchman for the house of Israel according to Ezekiel 3:17. And He said to him, "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Therefore, hear a Word from My mouth and give them warning from Me. When I say to the wicked, "You shall surely die," and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way to save his life. That same wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. And all who have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior may be used by the Lord as watchmen and watch women to warn the disobedient about the consequences of sin and about the imminent return of our Savior.
The Holy Bible is clear evidence of the many watchmen the Lord has used to send warnings to His children at various times in the history of the world. And the great book is full of evidence of the consequences suffered by various generations as a result of their hardheadedness. The responsibility of a watchman is the safety and security of an area, a property or a people. He is also to warn people about imminent threats to their safety and he has authority to restrict some of their movements.
In the case of Ezekiel, he was a watchman under very heavy manners. He was sent to the children of Israel and to us Gentiles by extension 2,648 years ago. And many of his warnings still stand today. The Lord made Ezekiel dumb and unable to speak unless He, the Lord, opened his mouth and gave him a word to speak. According to Ezekiel 3:26, the Lord said to him, "I will make your tongue cling to the roof of your mouth, so that you shall be mute and not be able to rebuke them." Meaning, he will not be able to rebuke them unless allowed by God, for they are a rebellious house, the Word of God says. But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth and you shall speak to them, thus says the Lord.
So you can see that Ezekiel's job was an extremely challenging one. He was sent to a people who were not interested in hearing or responding to God's warnings. And this is precisely the way the people of the world are today. In the end, Jerusalem was destroyed by the Babylonian army and the city including the temple was destroyed by fire. The walls were broken down and the majority of the people were taken captive by the Babylonians for 70 years.
Let's take a look at an event that occurred very recently in which clear warnings were ignored year after year and lives were lost because no one took the warning seriously enough to do something about the problem. On July 4th, 2025, 137 people died from tropical weather systems in an area in Kerr County, Texas called Flash Flood Alley. The Guadalupe River is a major waterway close to the county. There was a sudden and dramatic water rise of 26 feet in 45 minutes during heavy rainfall. In spite of numerous warnings over the years, the county had not established an adequate warning system with sirens. A Christian girls camp called Camp Mystic, which does not appear to be a truly Christian camp by the nature of the name Mystic, which has pagan connotations. The camp lost 27 campers and counselors in the flood. And they had previously complained about Kerr County's lack of warning systems as well. And this was not the first time that lives were lost at the camp either. 38 years prior in 1987, there were 10 deaths by flood waters. And the owner of the camp had been asked for decades to move some of the camp buildings from the lower area to higher ground because of the potential for flooding. And he was advised to implement safety measures. It never happened. It appears there was a lack of responses to warnings all around and it is unfortunate that the camp owner also died in the July flood while trying to save campers from drowning. The tragedy of this event demonstrate how important it is to heed warnings and to take them seriously because failure to take a warning seriously may result in a devastating outcome for you, your family, and many others. As we speak, there are two major warnings on the table that have serious implications for the entire world if they continue to be ignored. One of them we have already mentioned. I'm talking about the impact of our failure to heed warnings about the effect of climate change on the earth, on the heavens, and the oceans. And I'm talking about the dangers of AI upon everyday life if we fail to respond to the warnings of the experts. However, the consequential impact of these two phenomena on the earth and the world are small and insignificant in comparison to the potential impact of man's failure to heed God's warnings about our disobedience to His Word.
Let's take a look at climate change. Are the nations of the world responding appropriately to the warnings about warming that is going on in the earth and its potential dangers to our natural resources and the safety of earth dwellers? Well, friend, the clear answer is no. The biggest problem may be the push back by large corporations and various government leaders who find it economically, politically inconvenient to respond to warnings about climate change. Therefore, most countries are not on track to meet the emissions reduction targets needed to limit global warming to 1.5 or 2.0 degrees centigrade above pre-industrial levels.
There's an agreement called the Paris agreement which is a plan to limit the warming of the earth by taking certain measures such as developing renewable energy technology, restoring forest and wetlands by planting trees. It is a plan to move toward a lower carbon emissions world. The other huge issue facing the earth is the safe development of artificial intelligence AI and integrating it into world technologies and systems. It is frightening that some of the creators of AI have regrets about developing it because of the many dangers that they see in AI's future. In 2023, over 1,000 tech leaders sent an open letter warning to the world that a pause was needed on large AI experiments. They say that there would be severe risk to society and humanity if these projects are allowed to go forward. Well, friend, there was no pause. These tech leaders point out numerous dangers posed by AI. Dangers such as job losses from automation, a more rapid spread of fake news, the use of AI powered weaponry and wars, privacy violation, market volatility, manipulation by bad data that influences algorithms and uncontrollable self aware AI which might be able to understand its own existence, thoughts, and emotions. The greatest fear they have is that these robots and computer systems can become more intelligent than human beings and could decide to take over the world. But AI psychosis, in my view, in which people are literally losing touch with reality, especially children, is the greatest threat presently.
And what about God's warnings about our disobedience? From the beginning of time, the Lord God sent watchmen to warn the people of the world. He's laid out a plan, a path that we should follow in order to avoid harm and danger and ultimately avoid total destruction. Yet, from the very outset, we have had eyes, scripture says, that refused to see and ears that refuse to hear, which resulted in great pain at various times of our early existence and especially today.
The Holy Bible is a comprehensive warning system to people of the earth about dangers posed by disobedience to God's word. Yet, these warnings are ignored by as much as 75% of the people living on Earth today. As much as six billion, we can expect an increase in disasters and catastrophes all over the world for the foreseeable future. At the beginning of this message, I spoke about how in 2019, the Lord told me that trouble was coming to the earth. He repeated this warning hundreds of times from a quarter before midnight to 2:30 a.m. that fateful morning. That year, Hurricane Dorian came in September and caused $4 billion of damages in the Bahama Islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama. There were upwards of 350 recorded dead and missing and an unspecified number of unrecorded missing persons among the Haitian migrant community. And then COVID 19 came to the world in December 2019 causing 7 million confirmed deaths and 18 to 33 million estimated deaths according to Wikipedia.
Now, in March of 2025, the Lord announced in similar fashion that trouble has now come. Look around you, friend. The storms are brewing all over the world. The tides have turned and pockets of unrest and trouble are rising all across the globe. And the most pressing issue at hand right now, however, is the state of your soul. The most pressing issue is the question of whether your heart is right with God should Jesus Christ come at this moment. God bless and keep you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
You've been listening to this message and perhaps you do not know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Well, friend, we want to give you an opportunity to make that commitment today. Please engage your heart and say this prayer after me:
-Father, I am a sinner.
-I am sorry for all my sins.
-I crave Your forgiveness.
-Dear Lord, I thank You for Your patience with me and I thank You for forgiving me.
-Today I have decided to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.
-Dear Lord Jesus, please come into my heart.
-Make my heart Your home.
-I give You the key to my heart because I now belong to You forever.
-Please keep the key.
-Please give me the Holy Spirit to lead me into all truth.
-Thank You, Lord, for saving my soul. Amen.
Welcome friend to the body of believers in Christ. There are so many of us here awaiting the return of the Good Master. In the meantime, we encourage you to let your pastor know that you've committed your life to the Lord and you want to be baptized. You want to be baptized the way Jesus Christ was baptized.
Begin reading the Word of God every day. Begin in the book of John, then go to Matthew, Mark, and Luke, reading audibly as often as possible because faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Pray daily. Attend at your local church. And one glad morning the Lord will come and receive us all unto Himself. And we shall indeed forever be with the Lord. God bless and keep you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
