5G

5G is the way of the world. Out with the old, in with the new. 5G is everywhere you turn whether you know it or not. 5G is the next gen, the 5th generation. 5G represents a move forward, the next step in everything from technology to warfare. 5G is newer, better, faster and improved. 5G warfare represents social engineering, misinformation, cyber attacks, along with emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and fully autonomous systems.

Cell providers and military forces around the world are dropping the old and focusing on the new. This evolution and change reaches institutions, church and state. How does the new gen manifest? Did you watch the social engineering at the Grammies? Did you hear the change this week from the Bishop of London and the Protestant Church of England? Have you read what Pope Benedict wrote before his death and contrast that with the ‘new’ Pope, Francis? Out with the old, in with the new.

5G is evident in the next generation of money and finance. Yesterday, the Bank of England discussed their proposed roll out of the new digital currency to replace the pound. Under current guidelines, Britons would only be allowed 10-20,000 pounds in their digital wallets. To posses money above this limit, the BOE would be in charge of approving and allowing you to sweep from other accounts to make additional purchases. When CBDC’s roll out, your cash will be outdated 3G technology left behind.

5G represents the NEW way of the world. While you decide whether to participate in the changes it brings, 5G demands you get on board or get left behind. Verizon has moved on so your 3G phone and services won’t work anymore. ChatGPT has changed the way your kids write their next essay whether you participate or not. This week’s SOTU address was 5G misinformation regardless of the economy participating or not. The world is moving on whether the truth participates or not.

Coming soon to a theater near you, Christians will be labeled as either participating in the new 5G world or their archaic first generation faith. It’s incumbent Christ followers remember the world may offer new and improved but the Bible says…’You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.’ James 4:4. Yes, the choice IS between the two and the contrast is stark. The time is NOW to have wisdom and discernment regarding the ways of the world versus the ways of God.

Jesus knew the choice between Him and the world would be the same in the 1G or the 5G so, He prayed to the Father…’ ” I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world anymore than I am of the world. My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.’ ‘ John 17:14-15. In the world, if your faith dictates not baking a cake to commemorate a particular ceremony, the choice and the consequences are real. It begs the question, do we really believe ‘…the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world’?

The heat is getting turnt up each day and we have battles to either fight or ignore. Before turning away from a battle or engaging with a comment on social media remember, ‘For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.’ 2 Cor 10:4-5. Prayer should be the 5G weapon of choice for a Christ follower.

Christians are called to be holy. Holy is not silence, self righteous, pompous, angry or meek. Holy means to be set apart, separate. We are to live in this world but not be of it. We are called to be salt and light, to stick out and be different. The time is here and now to decide where you stand on ALL the issues of the world that are in conflict with your faith and what Jesus commanded. The Christian faith is in direct conflict with many headlines and events. Biblical faith means ‘Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them.’

With CBDC’s around the corner, many believers don’t want to think the convenience of utilizing an ATM card might be replaced with a chip somewhere on your body. 5G monetary technology might dictate you adapt or get left behind like an old phone. ‘We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one’ so live prepared to make the hard choice.

Things are moving fast and Christ followers must stay in touch with the Holy Spirit and a body of believers more than the next technology. Go to church. Socialize with other believers. 5G is sweeping the world. A 1G faith is the remnant that will never become obsolete or leave you behind. “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

Have faith, wisdom and discernment in God, not the world. Live in community with like minded. The letter Paul wrote to Timothy reminds us about those who chose the new ways over their faith, ‘have nothing to do with them.’
