Livestreamed preachers who deny the sanctity of LGBT lifestyles will be flagged and punished as &#8216;extremists.&#8217; Best of all, smartphone-addicted congregants can donate their last widow&#8217;s mite with the touch of a virtual button. Sounds like a little slice of heaven, doesn\u2019t it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was the New York Times that pointed out that Facebook&#8217;s &#8220;next target&#8221; would be &#8220;the religious experience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It explains how the megachurch Hillsong was opening a new outpost in Atlanta and sought advice from Facebook on operating during a pandemic. The pastor, Sam Collier, said there were months of meetings with developers, examining ways to facilitate donations, videos and livestreaming. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Together we are discovering what the future of the church could be on Facebook,&#8221; he told the Times, which then confirmed that Facebook is &#8220;cultivating partnerships with a wide range of faith communities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It wants to draw those &#8220;highly engaged&#8221; users from religious groups into its labyrinth of software where monetization is a priority.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Church of Facebook is just one part of a much broader vision. Three days before the Times article appeared, The Verge published an in-depth interview with founder Mark Zuckerberg about his ambition to &#8216;bring the metaverse to life,'&#8221; he said. &#8220;The term refers to the evolution of 24\/7 screentime into a warped synthesis of physical reality, mixed reality, augmented reality, and virtual reality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Metaverse was coined by a novelist in 1992 who wrote how it would be a &#8220;decadent virtual realm&#8221; in which people to escape from society run by megacorporations.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now that the Metaverse is being funded by Silicon Valley oligarchs and Wall Street traders, we\u2019re supposed to believe it\u2019ll be a fine place to live,&#8221; Allen warned.<\/p>\n<p>Zuckerberg, in the Verge, explained his vision is an &#8220;embodied internet&#8221; where &#8220;we can work, play, and enjoy a &#8216;sense of presence.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He wants Facebook to be viewed as that &#8220;metaverse company.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was another Facebook officer, Sheryl Sandberg, who has lobbied that &#8220;faith organizations and social media are a natural fit\u2026&#8221; &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Allen said, &#8220;Imagine a synagogue where a holographic burning bush recites the Decalogue, or a cathedral where saint icons speak to you directly, or maybe animated deities waving their many arms in Hindu temples. Immersive idolatry is the future of false religion. With 3 billion users worldwide \u2014 and zero sense of sacred boundaries \u2014 Facebook is poised to lead this spiritual revolution.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It is no longer hyperbole, he said, to say &#8220;Technology has become a religion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Times pointed out that Facebook already has about three billion adherents, while Christianity is at 2.3 billion, and Islam, 2.8 billion. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2021\/08\/facebook-poised-lead-first-church-metaverse\/\">https:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2021\/08\/facebook-poised-lead-first-church-metaverse\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The fact of it opposing those who support biblical morality on sexual matters shows that this interfaith-ecumenical &#8216;church&#8217; is opposed to the truth of the word of God. Plus, yes, idolatry, which is also biblically-prohibited is likely to be promoted via the Metaverse or other interfaith-related moves.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it should be pointed out that Metaverse is not primarily being promoted as a religious plan, but its approach to religion is consistent with what we have seen from some in the Vatican, United Nations, and even Hillsong.<\/p>\n<p>Before going further, let it be pointed out that Hillsong has embraced at least ecumenicalism.

But if they would examine the portion of scripture that they do accept, plus certain of their written traditions that they overlook, the logical conclusion is that Jesus is the prophesied Messiah. Chapter 3 of my free online book, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/ProofJesusistheMessiah.pdf\">Proof Jesus is the Messiah<\/a> explains this in more detail.<\/p>\n<p>As far as Islam goes, it claims that Christians and Jews changed the Bible, so it cannot be relied upon. Hence, Islam does not truly have a biblical foundation (see also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/islam.htm\">Differences Between Islam and the <em>Continuing<\/em> Church of God<\/a>).

(James 4:4, NJB)<\/p>\n<p class=\"style5\">1 One of the seven angels that had the seven bowls came to speak to me, and said, &#8216;Come here and I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute who is enthroned beside abundant waters, 2 with whom <strong>all the kings of the earth have prostituted themselves, and who has made all the population of the world drunk with the wine of her adultery.&#8217;<\/strong> 3 He took me in spirit to a desert, and there I saw a woman riding a scarlet beast which had seven heads and ten horns and had blasphemous titles written all over it. 4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet and glittered with gold and jewels and pearls, and she was holding a gold winecup filled with the disgusting filth of her prostitution; 5 <strong>on her forehead was written a name, a cryptic name: &#8216;Babylon the Great, the mother of all the prostitutes and all the filthy practices on the earth<\/strong>.&#8217; 6 I saw that she was drunk, drunk with the blood of the saints, and the blood of the martyrs of Jesus; and when I saw her, I was completely mystified. (Revelation 17:1-6, NJB)<\/p>\n<p class=\"style5\">9 &#8216;This calls for shrewdness. The seven heads are the seven hills, on which the woman is sitting&#8230;18 The woman you saw is the great city which has authority over all the rulers on earth.&#8217; (Revelation 17:9,18, NJB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The World Council of Churches (WCC), United Nations, aspects of Big Tech, and various others are involved in this as well (see also <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/news\/prophecy\/pope-and-muslim-leader-sign-interfaith-agreement-towards-a-one-world-religion-will-this-lead-to-peace-or-the-great-tribulation\/\">Pope and Muslim leader sign interfaith agreement towards a one world religion: Will this lead to both peace and the Great Tribulation?<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>This United Nations&#8217; interfaith agenda is supposed to be fully implemented by 2030 and is also called the <em>2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development<\/em>.

While many of its objectives are good, some of its methods and goals are evil (cf.

That makes it more acceptable to the world.<\/p>\n<p>But it is NOT acceptable to God.<\/p>\n<p>Nor will not end well.<\/p>\n<p>Those who believe the word of God must be:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>4 &#8230; Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
