Many tie the arrival of God's Holy Spirit at Pentecost to the Upper Room. But that dog won't hunt. For more info CLICK HERE
On Sunday, June 1, Israelis will celebrate the Feast of Pentecost. Some believe (we disagree) that the Rapture will take place on this date. (In the US it's celebrated on Sunday, June 8th, which is 7 weeks from Easter Sunday).
The Pentecost/Rapture theory is that the Church Age will end on the same day it began. And there is a small, but vocal, group of sincere Believers who are expecting big things on that day.
When Pentecost begins on June 1st, it's at sundown IN ISRAEL. This will be Sunday morning for us—but don't hold your breath...
Here's a shocker:
We just heard that Casey Means has been nominated for Surgeon General. 
WOW! We've posted links to some of her great videos on Compass eNews.
For months MAHA backers have fumed at President Trump for his original nomination, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat. Here's how Jeff Childers described her:
Nesheiwat graduated from the prestigious American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, which is located on the resort-like island nation of St. Maarten. She is also Mike Waltz’s sister-in-law. But those weren’t Janette’s worst PR problems.
Dr. Nesheiwat is a plump jab lover who thinks sex is assigned at birth and calls normal boys and girls “cisgender.” She often praised Biden’s efforts to cancel anti-vaxxer misinformation and gushed over school mask mandates. She blasphemously called the covid vaccines “a gift from God.” You could call her anti-MAHA.
Her nomination ticked off a lot of people and she didn't fit at all with the group President Trump is assembling around him. Makes you wonder if she was a "straw man." (See "Art of the Deal.")
Now President Trump has picked the exact opposite, what the liberal media is calling "the conspiracy theorist ‘wellness influencer’ Casey Means." Boom! the Dims' heads are exploding like pagers in Lebanon.

Recently, I read an article about a new personal payment technology that reads your eyes instead of requiring people to have a password to access your funds. Called "Worldcoin"(1), it puts a tight lid on the security of your funds.
It’s been successfully rolled out worldwide primarily because they’re offering free crypto funds to get you started. All you have to do is allow them to scan your eyes with a special high-resolution camera and agree to be put in their system.
Of course, those in control of Worldcoin want to do more than just control all the money in the world. They also want to control each individual's social services, voting rights, and more (think “vaccine record”).
People who study prophecy obviously see the implications of any worldwide, people-controlling system. The Worldcoin developers stress that it is voluntary (until it isn’t).
Those joining Worldcoin are taking a big jump into the digital world and giving up all privacy. The day is coming when Globalists/Satanists will have full view of all of our financial transactions, and it may very well happen pre-Rapture. 🙁
The article’s author compares the future Mark of the Beast to the Worldcoin system. And on the surface, it seems like it could be a good fit. But, trying to be a Berean (Acts 17:11), our main question is always, “Does it fit scripture?”
Now these (Believers in Berea) were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so. Acts 17:11
So here we go......what is it, according to the God-breathed scripture?
What Actually Is The “Mark” That Sends Someone To Hell?
And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name. Rev. 13:16
Mounce Greek Dictionary:
Mounce Greek Dictionary says the Greek word “charagma,” translated “mark” in Rev. 13:16, means “an imprinted mark.”
That means printing ON something. Other Greek dictionaries follow suit...
Thayers Greek-English Lexicon:
Strongs Dictionary:
All define "mark" basically the same way—that it's a mark ON the surface, not under.
Therefore, the “mark of the beast,” used in Rev. 13:16, is a “MARK” on your right hand or forehead. It’s not a chip, it’s not a va((ine, it’s not reading your eyes… it’s something marked or imprinted on the surface of the skin.
It may or may not be a visible mark, but it IS a mark and it’s used for controlling what you can do, and not do, during the Tribulation.
But what’s really interesting is that scripture does not say the mark has to be a personal identification mark, or a personal identification number.
Scripture only says that to be properly marked by Satan, you have to have one of two marks…
“either the name of the beast or the number of his name.” Rev. 13:17b
"whoever receives the mark of his name.” Rev. 14:11b
So the Mark of the Beast could be somewhat generic, it may not even be tied to a world banking system as many Bible prophecy teachers have suggested.
It’s possible there may be several regional systems operating around the world, with the common denominator being the necessity of first having the Mark of the Beast.
As an example, you might have one system in Europe, a different system in the Middle East and another in China… but all requiring the Mark of the Beast on the hand or forehead to be able to work within the specific regional system.
Of course, it’s certainly possible that the whole world WILL be part of one worldwide computer network. That would make it easy to block out all those who do not have the Mark of the Beast tattoo.
As illogical as this seems from an implementation standpoint, it certainly is a possibility, given enough time. We're not there yet, though things are moving quite rapidly with AI.
Refuse The Mark Or Go To Hell
Whatever the mark is, if you take it you're destined for eternal hell.
“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mixed in full strength in the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with fire and brimstone… And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” Rev. 14:9b-11
It’s also important to note that in order to be auto-sentenced to hell you must take the mark AND worship the beast. Every verse referencing taking the mark also references "worshiping the beast."
those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” Rev. 14:11b
he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; Rev. 19:20b
loathsome and malignant sore on the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image. Rev. 16:2
So this means that if someone throws you to the ground and forces the mark on you against your will, then that by itself will not cause a person to go to hell. You have to also choose to worship Satan over God.
So those left behind and going through the Tribulation will have a choice to choose between living longer on the earth, but dying and going to hell… versus living a shorter time on earth (and most likely being murdered) but spending eternity in heaven.
I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. Rev. 20:4b
Recycled Lie
The lack of food/starvation is hugely prominent in the Tribulation. So it’s interesting that in the Garden of Eden, Eve had to make a choice to eat, or not eat, the food offered by Satan.
Those living in the Tribulation will basically have the same choice—eat, or don't eat, Satan's food.
So if you find yourself left behind dealing with the horrors in the Tribulation, don’t take the bait, don’t eat Satan’s food! Your decision determines whether you go to heaven or hell.
Thankfully, we currently live in the Church Age when there is nothing a Born Again Believer can do, or not do, to make himself any more, or less, acceptable to God… or more or less sanctified by God.
Our personal sanctification does not come from what we do or don’t do. Rather, it comes from Believing what He did 2,000 years ago— which is: God coming to earth as a human, shedding His innocent blood on the cross in order to be an acceptable blood sacrifice to pay for our sins.
all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. Heb. 9:22b
Jesus did it all, and we can't add anything to His FINISHED work on the cross.
Timing of the Mark
Scripture is very clear when the Mark of the Beast control system takes place. The verses leading up to Rev. 13:16 clearly state that this takes place after the Abomination of Desolation, which happens just after Satan is thrown to the earth at the midpoint of the 7-year Tribulation.
…whose fatal wound was healed. Rev. 13:12b
who had the wound of the sword and has come to life. Rev. 13:14b
Those verses reference the midpoint of the Tribulation when the New World Leader dies, Satan is cast to earth and takes over his lifeless corpse, bringing him back to life.
The New World Leader ran the first 3 1/2 years of the 7-year Tribulation. Satan runs the last 3 1/2 years.
Just as Jesus came to earth for 3 1/2 years as God-man, fully God and fully man (referred to as "hypostatic union"), it looks like Satan will come to earth as Satan-man for 3 1/2 years. And he will also claim to be the Messiah.
Just as Jesus had 3 1/2 years to show miracles of agape love and compassion, Satan will have full control of the last 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation to show his hate and destruction.
Jesus in the Tribulation
Jesus is mentioned scores of times, referred to as the "Lamb," actively participating in the events described in the Book of Revelation. Here are some examples:
Jesus operating from the sky:
Then I saw when the Lamb broke one of the seven seals... Rev. 6:1a
When the Lamb broke the fourth seal... Rev. 6:7a
When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, ... Rev. 6:9a
...from the wrath of the Lamb; Rev. 6:16b
Jesus operating from the ground:
the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, Rev. 14:1
These verses also show two reasons why the Holy Spirit must depart earth prior to the Tribulation:
1) Jesus would not be able to come to earth if the Holy Spirit was here (John 16:7).
2) Jesus would be bringing His wrath against the Holy Spirit (Himself as part of the Trinity).
What's The Main Purpose of the Mark of the Beast?
The Mark of the Beast identifies those in the Tribulation who were tricked into taking the Mark of the Beast. It’s eerily similar to being tricked into taking a va((ine that will kill you.
…he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast Rev. 19:20b
Those with the mark will have chosen to worship/follow Satan over Jesus. The temporary upside is that they’re approved to buy, sell/have access to food.
no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, Rev. 13:17a
The downside is not only are they going to hell after they die, they don’t even do so well before they die!
So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth; and it became a loathsome and malignant sore on the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image. Rev. 16:2
Naturally I wonder if the malignancies will have been set up by the worldwide shot? Maybe.
Not having the Mark of the Beast identifies those not following the false Messiah—and they're hunted down and murdered.
I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand;
So the one-worldwide-computer scenario leans toward the Rapture being more or less around the 2000-year mark of the Church Age (2033), which gives time for the whole world to get on the same system.
If the marking system is not personalized, the Rapture would make sense coming sooner. Time will tell.
But regardless of which system is being used, the individual person MUST have the Mark of the Beast which incorporates either the name of the beast or the number of his name, in order to operate within that system.
Those who do take the mark (even if it's the only way to stay alive) pay a costly eternal price.
“And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” Rev. 14:11
Forever is a long time. Aren’t you thankful the Lord has promised to rescue us before all this begins?
and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come. 1Thes. 1:10
These prophecies greatly impact those of us who are alive today because they promise whoever misses the Rapture can still go to heaven. An uncountable number of people will get saved in the Tribulation!
After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches were in their hands; Rev. 7:9
“These who are clothed in the white robes, who are they, and where have they come from?” Rev. 7:13b
“These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” Rev. 7:14b
The reason this affects Believers today is that we all have family, friends or co-workers who are likely to miss the Rapture. They may not see a need for the Lord’s offer for salvation today, but they could very well be interested post-Rapture!
This is one of the reasons we're anonymously postal mailing 1 million Rapture/Tribulation warning flyers to people all over the USA. So far Compass supporters have made it possible to mail over 900K to date. PTL!
Until the Rapture, our job is to pray for opportunities to plant seeds that can bloom post-Rapture.
pray … that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, Eph. 6:19
Use us, Lord!

Can you spot the problem?
I can promise you President Trump and his advisors see our growing interest payment as unsustainable and will address the situation ASAP.
The other big problem he has to solve is the number of people continuing to die from mRNA va((inations. But if these deaths are tied to the massive number of Tribulation deaths, then there's probably not much he can do...
Variations of the above headline screamed across news channels recently. I have to admit I wasn't sure what to think when I saw it. It just seemed opposite of what I THOUGHT was going on.
And sure enough, turns out it was not true. Actually the headline was correct but it was about 6 months old and recycled by the Globalist/Satanist controlled media. Here the same article is back in July, 2024:
Obviously, the old HHS tried to sneak in a huge contract to Moderna just before Trump arrived. It was quickly nixed by the new administration. Maybe the reason for the re-release would be to get a bump in Moderna's stock price that's fallen 70% in the last year—$454 to $27.
This may have been released just to slow down or embarrass RFKJr. If he stays on track, Big Pharma will be forced to come clean on their profitable (but deadly) va((ine industry.
You could even make the case that our entire healthcare system is controlled lock, stock, and barrel by Big Pharma. It's amazing that they control the hospitals, doctors and insurance companies so completely that no one has dared to cross them...until now.
So it's hugely important to understand that because they also control and dictate local and national news story lines.
There's a name for how they're pulling the strings behind the scenes. It's called Black Propaganda. "Psywar: Enforcing the New World Order," a book by Robert Malone, explains it this way:
Robert Malone says Black Propaganda is being used to try to take down President Trump, Sec. Kennedy and the Make America Healthy Again movement (MAHA). Probably true, but President Trump's got them on the run at the moment.

President Donald Trump has pledged a revitalization of American industry, stating, “Jobs and factories will come roaring back into our country, and you see it happening already. We will supercharge our domestic industrial base. We will pry open foreign markets and break down foreign trade barriers. And ultimately, more production at home will mean stronger competition and lower prices for consumers.”

Eye-opening recap by Jeff Childers, Covid & Coffee:
Aetna (CVS Health), Anthem (Elevance), and Humana together account for nearly 40% of the Medicare Advantage market. Also fingered were three brokers: eHealth, GoHealth, and SelectQuote. All six companies are now defendants in the Justice Department’s massive new lawsuit.
The DOJ’s complaint alleged that, between 2016 and 2021, the insurers paid the brokers hundreds of millions of dollars to funnel healthier customers to them, and direct disabled customers to other insurers. The brokers were also bribed to sign people up for the most expensive plans— regardless of what they needed.
An Aetna whistleblower turned over internal messages showing insurance executives knew this practice was risky and likely illegal, but they kept quietly doing it anyway. One broker bragged —in writing— that Aetna was “jazzed” they had reduced disabled enrollees from 25% to 15%. Another admitted that Aetna’s product was “dog sh—t,” but “more money will drive more sales.”
If the Justice Department’s allegations are true, it wasn’t just unethical, but Aetna’s doggy doo violated a whole raft of federal anti-discrimination and anti-kickback laws. If the DOJ proves its case, fines could be in the billions— potentially becoming one of the largest civil health fraud penalties in U.S. history.

The drug mifepristone, known widely as the abortion pill, is much more dangerous than previously reported, according to the largest-known study to date on its effects.
The study, released by the Ethics & Public Policy Center, analyzed data from an insurance claims database that included 865,727 prescribed mifepristone abortions from 2017-2023.
Within 45 days of a mifepristone abortion, 10.93% of the women experienced serious complications such as sepsis, infection, hemorrhage, “or another serious adverse effect,” which is 22 times higher (2200%) than the data the FDA has reported, the study said.
