Pastor David Bowen says: It’s time to sound the Alarm; Perilous deception is coming

Important Takeaways:

  • It’s Time to Sound The Alarm: The World Is Being Set Up For A Perilous Deception
  • With that said, let me ask you three questions:
    • How much do we desire to make life easier?
    • What price are we willing to pay for speed and convenience?
    • Should technology be a cause of concern for a watchman?
  • Credit cards, smartphones, store shelves, clothing, and nail salons. What is the next innovation in wearable technology? How about the human body? The medical field has been a driving force behind this new renaissance, taking digital technology directly to the human body.
  • Digital Tattoos
    • A digital tattoo can allow medical professionals to monitor one’s blood sugar level or patient blood pressure.
    • Taking the possibilities of the digital tattoo further, the Motorola Corporation launched the digital tattoo for its Moto X handset. The digital tattoo sticker unlocks the smartphone without the need for a password. With this development, a digital tattoo has more potential than only medical purposes. A digital tattoo can be used for both good and evil. The concern is if our culture adapts and accepts the digital tattoo for everyday activities such as buying and selling, how far of a leap will it be to the open acceptance of the Mark of the Beast!?
  • Synthetic Biology
  • The World Economic Forum, in its book The Great Narrative for a Better Future, explains:
    • “We will re-engineer biological systems. We are at the dawn of the genetic revolution. We now understand how to rewrite the genetic code” (page 102). Rewriting the genetic code is what they call synthetic biology, and they say it delivers on its promise.
  • It’s time to sound the alarm! The world is being set up for a perilous deception.

China could rule world’s technology, UK cyber spy chief says

By Guy Faulconbridge

LONDON (Reuters) -The West must urgently act to ensure China does not dominate important emerging technologies and gain control of the “global operating system,” Britain’s top cyber spy said on Friday.

In an unusually blunt speech, Jeremy Fleming, director of the GCHQ spy agency, said the West faced a battle for control of technologies such as artificial intelligence, synthetic biology and genetics.

“Significant technology leadership is moving East,” Fleming said at Imperial College London. “The concern is that China’s size and technological weight means that it has the potential to control the global operating system.”

“We are now facing a moment of reckoning,” he said.

World powers will compete to shape the future by developing the best technology, hiring the people with the best brains and dominating the global standards that will govern the technologies, Fleming said.

GCHQ, which gathers communications from around the world to identify and disrupt threats to Britain, has a close relationship with the U.S. National Security Agency and with the eavesdropping agencies of Australia, Canada and New Zealand in a consortium called “Five Eyes”.

Fleming said that if Britain wished to remain a global cyber power then it would have to develop “sovereign” quantum technologies, including cryptographic technologies, to protect sensitive information and capabilities.

Fleming said quantum computing, which uses the phenomena of quantum mechanics to deliver a leap forward in computation, was getting closer and posed huge opportunities but also risks.

The West should forge ahead with developing quantum-proof algorithms, he said, “so we’re also prepared for those adversaries who might use a quantum computer to look back at things that we currently think are secure”.

He called for better fostering of market conditions to enable innovation, and create a diversity of supply in a broader set of technologies.

Fleming said China was “bringing all elements of state power to control, influence design and dominate markets” while trying to dominate debates about global standards.

He said digital currencies held significant promise to revolutionize the finance sector but posed a potential threat to liberties if abused by illiberal states as they could enable “significant intrusions into the lives of citizens and companies”.

Russia remains the biggest immediate threat to the West but Communist China’s long-term dominance of technology poses a much bigger problem, he said.

“Russia is affecting the weather, whilst China is shaping the climate,” he said.
