New students at the University of Missouri will be required to participate in a tracking program designed to measure and enforce class attendance, according to a new report from The Kansas City Star.

Years ago, we warned you that the everyone in America would soon be tracked and chipped, and every day that scenario comes closer and closer to becoming reality. NBC News promotes the benefits of being chipped, Bill Gates wants to place an RFID microchip into every child that receives vaccinations, Amazon just patented a payment system using only your palm, and the list trudges on seemingly endless. Now college students in Missouri will be forced to install the location tracking app SpotterEDU on their mobile devices.

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16,17 (KJB)

This is where America and the whole world is headed, we have let the technology genie out of the bottle, and there is no putting her back in. Today’s mobile location tracking app becomes tomorrow’s RFID microchip inserted inside your body.

Mizzou students required to install location tracking app so college can ‘pinpoint’ them

FROM CAMPUS REFORM: Despite privacy concerns, officials defended the decision as one to the benefit of students, as the school’s athletics department has already been using the same app, SpotterEdu, to track certain student-athletes.

“A student will have to participate in this recording of attendance,” Jim Spain, vice provost for undergraduate studies at MU, said in a statement to The Kansas City Star.

Individual professors have to opt-in to using the app, but once they do, students in those professors’ classes will not be able to opt-out.

SpotterEDU, developed by a former basketball coach, is designed to monitor a user’s attendance by “pinpointing students within a classroom until they leave, providing continuous, reliable and non-invasive attendance,” according to the app’s website. While the app ensures that students are in the classroom during class times, it claims it does not track students’ locations anywhere else.

“We only care if students are in class during class; no GPS tracking means we can’t locate them anywhere else,” the app’s website states. However, the app is not incapable of tracking students’ locations outside the classroom.

“From labs to auditoriums our technology can expand to cover any size of space accurately and precisely,” the app’s website adds.

In a statement to The Washington Post, SpotterEDU chief Rick Carter said that his company works with nearly 40 schools, including major schools such as Auburn, Central Florida, Indiana, and Missouri. Most schools only use SpotterEDU to track their student-athletes; however, many colleges are starting to use the app with their student bodies, like Missouri.

According to the Post, colleges use the data to ensure that student-athletes who are receiving scholarships are attending classes regularly. The program emails professors automatically if a student is not in a class, or shows up more than a few minutes late. Carter told the Post that professors can look specifically at attendance patterns for “students of color” or “out of state students” for retention purposes.

Some in academia, though, have reservations about colleges using this technology.

Indiana University assistant professor Kyle M. L. Jones told the Washington Post, “These administrators have made a justification for surveilling a student population because it serves their interests, in terms of the scholarships that come out of their budget, the reputation of their programs, the statistics for the school.”

“What’s to say that the institution doesn’t change their eye of surveillance and start focusing on minority populations, or anyone else. [Students] should have all the rights, responsibilities and privileges that an adult has. So why do we treat them so differently?”Jones said.

Robby Pfeifer, a  Virginia Commonwealth University student, echoed Jones’ sentiment.

“We’re adults,” he told the Washington Post. “Do we really need to be tracked? Why is this necessary? How does this benefit us? And is it just going to keep progressing until we’re micromanaged every second of the day?”

“It embodies a very cynical view of education, that it’s something we need to enforce on students, almost against their will,” Erin Rose Glass, digital scholarship librarian at the University of California-San Diego, said, according to the Post. “We’re reinforcing this sense of powerlessness…when we could be asking harder questions, like: Why are we creating institutions where students don’t want to show up?”

Sara Baker of the ACLU of Missouri told the Kansas City Star the group has “deep privacy concerns about this.”

“Any time you use surveillance technology, the question always is who is watching the watcher,” Baker said, adding that such technology could be used for abusive purposes “like monitoring which students are participating in protests.” READ MORE

Bibles Behind Bars Staying True To It’s Mission To Bring The King James Bible Into As Many Jails And Prisons That The Lord Will Allow Us To

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

3 years later, Bibles Behind Bars is staying true to our mandate from God to send His preserved word into as many jails and prisons as we possibly can.

Bibles Behind Bars grew out of our Free Bible Program the day the LORD opened the floodgates for us to send out that first shipment of 1,500 King James Bibles to the prison in Port St. Lucie here in Florida. Since then, we have sent out Bibles to dozens and dozens of jails and prisons all across America. Not only that, we also send out New Testaments, scripture portions, Spanish Bibles and Christian literature of all kinds. We even restocked an entire prison library in Wisconsin! We have always promised the more you give, the more we will do, and by God’s grace are keeping that promise each and every day.

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” Ephesians 3:20 (KJB)

One exciting new project that is still in the planning stages is from the door the LORD opened last year with the NTEB Relief Convoy bringing Bibles, food, clothing and water to hurricane victims in North Carolina. We now have the opportunity to purchase a trailer that Charlton will operate from North Georgia, and it will deliver Bibles, books and supplies where needed throughout a multi-state region. A small shed warehouse is also in the planning stages where everything will be stored until needed. If we get the support we need, around $4,000, this will be our first ‘Triple B’ satellite location, exciting stuff! All of it made possible by your prayers and generous financial support. Please pray about it with us!

THIS IS THE BIBLE TRANSPORT TRAILER WE ARE PRAYING ABOUT, IT COSTS AROUND $4,000 TO PURCHASE, PLEASE PRAY ABOUT IT WITH US!!

Currently, we are still raising funds to send Bibles and books to Farmington Correctional Center A Side in Missouri, Baker Re-Entry and Work Camp in Florida, Richland Parish Detention Center in Louisiana, CH Hazlewood in the Texas Prison System, and the Atascadero Maximum Security State Mental Hospital in California. Hopefully these will go out in the beginning of next week with your help. Over in our Free Bible Program, we send out more free Ruckman Reference Bibles to individuals in need who request them from around the world each year than anyone.

If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this monumental task of providing King James Bibles, New Testaments, scripture portions, gospel tracts as well as Spanish Bibles to inmates in jails and prisons from Florida to Alaska, and every state in between. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!

BLOOD LUST: Hamas Ghoulishly Parades The Dead Bodies Of The Jewish Babies They Murdered To The Cheers Of Palestinians Like In A Sporting Event

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Hamas released the bodies of four Israeli hostages Thursday morning, including the youngest captive in Gaza, who was taken when he was just 9 months old.

Hamas just did the entire world a favor, and you should honestly thank them for it. They accomplished in mere minutes what a hundred years of writing articles about them could not do. What is that, you ask? Hamas just showed the whole world that they are heartless, murderous animals who not only exterminate children, but make sport and spectacle out of displaying and parading their lifeless corpses. The second thing they showed you is that the “average, everyday Palestinian” loves the work that Hamas does, and is complicit in it with them.

And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man‘s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.” Genesis 16:12 (KJB)

When you study the short-lived history of the Nazis in Germany, one thing that stands out is how much they relished the killing that Hitler tasked them with doing. They didn’t just kills Jews in the concentration camps, they starved them, tortured them, and made mountains out of their possessions and body parts to show their utter contempt for human life, especially Jewish human life. Hamas is very much the Nazis of the 21st-century, and the “poor, misunderstood Palestinians” are actually the all-too willing participants in Hamas barbarism. So no, I do not stand with the Palestinians, I do not support Gaza, I stand with the Jews and Israel from right now all the way to the Second Advent of Jesus Christ. Where do you stand?

Hamas parades bodies of four Israelis, including toddlers Kfir and Ariel Bibas, in disturbing display alongside propagandist inscription

FROM THE NY POST: The heartbreaking exchange saw the terror group hand over the bodies of Kfir Bibas, along with his brother, Ariel, who was taken when he was just 4, their mother, Shiri, 33, and Oded Lifshitz, 84. The bodies of the Bibas family — whose kidnapping video became a symbol for the horrors of Oct. 7 — and Lifshitz are set to be transferred to Israel, where a funeral will be held for them.

The four coffins containing the victims were displayed on stage in front of a disturbing mural depicting a bloody Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — with fangs — standing over pictures of the Bibas family and Lifshiftz, alongside a propagandist inscription. Placed next to the coffins were two missiles with English text reading, “They were killed by USA bombs.”

“Agony. Pain. There are no words,” Israeli President Isaac Herzog wrote on X. “Our hearts — the hearts of an entire nation — lie in tatters.”

Armed Hamas terrorists and Palestinians had crowded the area in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis to watch the transfer of the victims. Each black coffin bore a photo of a victim and Netanyahu along with a propaganda message.

“Every home in Israel bows its head today. We bow our heads for the heavy loss of our four hostages,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. “The four coffins of our loved ones oblige us more than ever to promise, to swear, that what happened on October 7 will never happen again.”

Four Hamas terrorists carried each victim over to a waiting Red Cross vehicle, where workers draped a white sheet over the coffins before placing them in the back. Shiri Bibas was the first, followed by her sons, Kfir and Ariel. Lifshitz was the last victim carried over to the trucks.

The exchange ended when the five Red Cross vehicles left the exchange area in Khan Younis just before 10 a.m. Thursday. The Israel Defense Forces confirmed to The Post that the bodies were handed over to IDF and Israeli Security Agency representatives in Gaza. READ MORE

We have devastating, breaking news to report. The terror group Hamas announced today that the youngest Israeli hostages in Gaza, 2 year old Kfir and 5 year old Ariel Bibas, along with their mother Shiri are dead. CBN’s Raj Nair is joined by Israeli activist Mark Halawa from Jerusalem.

PARTY LIKE IT’S 1938: Vladmir Putin And Donald Trump Are Accused Of Dividing Up Europe Much Like Hitler And Mussolini Did Right Before WWII, Are They?

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin’s peace talks send a chilling ripple of déjà vu, a historian has warned, sending Europe and Ukraine ‘back to 1938’

Someone once remarked that ‘those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it’, and certainly that applies in this article here today. I honestly don’t know what Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are up to, but I will tell you this, they are up to something. It is highly unorthodox to hold peace talks to end a war, and then not allow the other party with whom the war is being waged to attend the meetings. I mean, how does that happen? It only happens when the terms of ending the war are being dictated from one side to the other. That’s not ‘peace talks’, that’s divide and conquer talks.

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.” Ecclesiastes 1:9,10 (KJB)

I do not see Donald Trump as the Antichrist, as some have said, and I do not see him as Hitler, either. But what I do see is a man that God has put into office, according to Daniel 2:21, to carry out His will in these end times. This may be hard for some of you to swallow, but God has no interest in ‘making America great again’, not by a long shot. What God does have an interest in is carrying out what He told the prophets would be taking place in the last days. I see Donald Trump as an unwitting messenger by whom many of these events will be fulfilled. Elon Musk is by Trump’s side for a reason, the quicker you figure that out the easier this thing will be for you to understand. Dark days are on the horizon, war is coming, and it will begin in Europe as did the other two. That’s the memo.

‘Land-grabbers’ Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin ‘send Europe back to 1938’ with Ukraine intrigue

FROM THE MIRROR UK: A top history expert has accused the two leaders of “land grabbing”, with events in recent days bearing a chilling echo of when dictators Hitler and Mussolini signed away territory which the UK and France agreed to as to not exacerbate tensions. The US and Russia leaders have already appeared to have charged ahead with Ukraine peace talks, effectively locking out Kyiv and other European leaders.

The Trump administration has said the UK and Europe would not play a part in any negotiations as they looked set to plough ahead with talks in Riyadh this week, prompting fierce criticism and concerns. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to visit Washington DC next week after urging America to provide a “backstop” to any settlement brokered between Kyiv and Moscow. On Tuesday, Mr Trump said the US does not “need” to deploy peacekeeping troops and suggested Ukraine “should never have started” the war.

A British historian has already issued an urgent warning about history repeating itself, and has also likened the current situation to Hitler and Mussolini’s “land-grabbing” of the Sudetenland territory in September 1938. Professor Anthony Glees is an expert in European affairs and security who has previously spoken far and wide about the lessons taught by Hitler’s dictatorship.

 He told The Mirror: “I believe most sensible people the length and breadth of Europe are viewing these preparatory talks with a foreboding not experienced since 1938 when the UK & France met Hitler and Mussolini at Munich to sign away lands belonging to free Czechoslovakia to try to appease the fascist dictators. It was sold as ‘peace with honour’ and a ‘peace in our time’.

“But within months Hitler swallowed all of Czechoslovakia and within a year Europe was at war and millions died. Even Neville Chamberlain doubted his own deal because he began rapid rearmament programmes on his return to the UK.”

 Prof Glees added: “That’s the picture Europe has before its eyes right now. A small but brave free democracy fighting for its life is forced to be a bystander as its sovereignty is destroyed by Trump and Putin, both land grabbers, both megalomaniacs, brothers in bullying others.

“It’s outrageous that Trump has humiliated Zelensky in the past and now, literally, tramples over him. Whilst we know Putin is fully aware of the history of the last century, Trump, Hegseth and JD Vance are either clueless about what happens when free nations are sacrificed to war lords or (more likely) they couldn’t care less.”

So far, Britain has been making efforts to balance support for Ukraine alongside diplomacy with our biggest ally. The PM is now expected to try and bridge the gap when he visits the White House next week following an impromptu call from Trump last week, and is likely to call for security guarantees from the US.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, along with allies across the continent, have insisted that Kyiv must have a seat at the table in discussions over its future. Speaking to reporters at his Mar-a-Lago retreat in Florida on Tuesday night, Mr Trump said that he was “disappointed” Mr Zelensky had complained about being left out of talks. He suggested Ukraine should have been willing to make concessions to Russia before the 2022 invasion, adding: “Today I heard, ‘Oh, well, we weren’t invited’. Well, you been there for three years. You should have ended it three years (ago). You should have never started it. You could have made a deal.” READ MORE

Donald Trump has blamed Ukraine for Russia’s invasion of its neighbour. Speaking after talks between US and Russia on ending the war, the US President told Ukraine: “You should have never started it, you could have made a deal … I could have made a deal that would have given them almost all of the land.”
