On April 1 of 2021, a “word of knowledge” in that series of locutions we have called the “1990 Prophecy” (after the year of the first) included the enigmatic phrase: “In the framework of time is the mirage of indulgence. Man has sought to please his senses, leaving none for service and sensitivity to God.”\u00a0<\/em>What was meant by that<\/em>?<\/p>\n

Your call.<\/p>\n

The passage suggests, perhaps, that humanity currently is trapped in a “mirage of indulgence” whereby the pursuit of sensory gratification has blinded us to spiritual service. In the context of 2026, this offers a piercing critique of our modern era of hyper-consumption, gluttony, digital distraction, and cultish politics.<\/p>\n

Oh, the distractions!<\/p>\n

A newspaper recently ran an article detailing how A.I. fakery has entered the war with Iran.<\/p>\n

Some stark examples are here.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“A torrent of fake videos and images generated by artificial intelligence have overrun social networks during the first weeks of the war in Iran,” said\u00a0The New York Times<\/em>. “The videos \u2014 showing huge explosions that never happened, decimated city streets that were never attacked or troops protesting the war who do not exist \u2014 have added a chaotic and confusing layer to the conflict online.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The newspaper identified over 110 unique A.I.-generated images and videos from the past two weeks about the war in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

“The fakes covered every aspect of the fighting: They falsely depicted screaming Israelis cowering as explosions ripped through Tel Aviv, Iranians mourning their dead and American military vessels bombarded with missiles and torpedoes,” it said.<\/p>\n

Tehran especially has transformed<\/span> digital content into potent misinformation.<\/p>\n

Remarkable, isn’t it?<\/span>\u2014how much trouble a superficial, sales-pitched, overindulgent society now has differentiating between “mirage” and reality, reminding us of chimeras on a desert, like the ones Jesus had to see through when, those Forty Days, Satan tried to bombard him with falsity.<\/p>\n
