New German Government Wants To Ban “Lies”<\/h2>\n

March 29, 2025<\/p>\n

The new German government coalition, which is likely to be the Christian Democrats (CDU) and the Social Democrats (SPD) is looking to ban \u201clies,\u201d according to a working paper that emerged from the group \u201cculture and media\u201d between the two parties.<\/p>\n

Bild newspaper<\/a>\u00a0received a copy of the working paper, which outlines the goal of combating \u201cfake\u201d news on social media, including restrictions on it.<\/p>\n

The paper from the CDU and SPD indicates that \u201cdisinformation and fake news\u201d threaten democracy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In fact, the paper argues that freedom of expression does not apply in such circumstances. https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/political\/new-german-government-wants-ban-lies<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice that the INTERPRETATION is that information that the government does not like, called \u201cdisinformation and fake news\u201d <\/strong>is what the likely German government wants to stop.<\/p>\n

Consider also that governments in Europe have already taken some steps against people who quote parts of the Bible that they do not want quoted (e.g.\u00a0HD: The Truth Of The Bible On Trial In Finland: Could A Conviction Hold Grave Ramifications For European Christians?<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the European Union has something called it’s Digital Services Act which is a way for a lot more censorship to happen.<\/p>\n

Notice the following warning against it:<\/p>\n

\n

The EU wants to censor the global internet<\/h2>\n

March 25, 2025<\/p>\n

Brussels and Washington are once again at odds over Europe\u2019s sweeping social-media restrictions, contained within the 2022 Digital Services Act (DSA). …<\/p>\n

At the centre of the dispute are Articles 34<\/a> and 35<\/a> of the DSA, which impose broad but ill-defined obligations on \u2018very large\u2019 online platforms and search engines to identify, assess and mitigate \u2018systemic risks\u2019 associated with their services. These \u2018risks\u2019 extend beyond illegal content to include vague threats to \u2018civic discourse\u2019, \u2018electoral processes\u2019 and \u2018public health\u2019 \u2013 areas where even governments struggle to draw clear lines. With no firm legal definitions, the European Commission will be the one deciding what adequate risk mitigation looks like. …<\/p>\n

With \u2018systemic risks\u2019 so poorly defined in law, platforms are left to second guess what might constitute a compliance breach. No company wants to be the first regulatory test case. Platforms that fall foul of the DSA face ruinous fines of up to six per cent of their global annual turnover<\/a>. As a result, companies will inevitably err on the side of caution, removing content that could be considered harmful, even when it is entirely lawful. …<\/p>\n

The \u2018Brussels Effect<\/a>\u2019, where the EU\u2019s strict standards end up being adopted by firms and other regulators around the world, is nothing new. History shows that platforms frequently adopt the strictest regulatory standards across all markets to minimise compliance risks. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), implemented in the EU in 2018, reshaped data privacy on a global scale. Many companies chose to apply its stringent rules worldwide, rather than create region-specific policies. The DSA\u2019s obligations \u2013 broad, vague and backed by heavy penalties \u2013 will likely have a similar effect. …<\/p>\n

The DSA will undoubtedly have chilling effects not only on Europeans, but also on citizens across the world. https:\/\/www.spiked-online.com\/2025\/03\/25\/the-eu-wants-to-censor-the-global-internet\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let me add that Europe’s response to USA tariffs looks to include going after American Big Tech firms. I machine-translated the following German article (https:\/\/www.german-foreign-policy.com\/news\/detail\/9924<\/a>) into English, and here are some excerpts:<\/p>\n

\n

With digital levies against car tariffs<\/span><\/h2>\n

New US tariffs on imports of cars and car parts are hitting the German automotive industry hard. The EU Commission is considering countermeasures against US digital companies. <\/span><\/h3>\n

28 March 2025<\/p>\n

The EU Commission may consider a significant escalatory move by targeting the US service sector. This could involve restricting intellectual property rights for US companies operating in the EU.<\/p>\n

For instance, the EU might limit companies like Apple<\/a> and Google<\/a> from charging for cloud-storage services or operating-system updates. There is also discussion about preventing Elon Musk’s<\/a> Starlink satellite network<\/a> from competing for European government contracts. …<\/p>\n

The president of the Munich Ifo Institute, Clemens Fuest, was quoted as saying that the vehicle tariffs hit “Germany’s most important export,” and that this was “a major burden for the German economy.”[4] Donald Trump had “started the trade war unilaterally and on the basis of false claims,” \u200b\u200bexplained Dirk Jandura, president of the German Trade Association (BGA); the EU should respond with “clear countermeasures,” which “must also include a response to the market-dominating and overpowering role of American digital corporations in Europe.” In fact, the US tech giants are recording massive surpluses from their European business, thus offering a large target for attack \u2013 in stark contrast to US industry, whose exports to Europe are comparatively small. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice also the following:<\/p>\n

March 29, 2025<\/p>\n

Former European Commissioner for Internal Markets and Services Thierry Breton issued a threatening message to Musk, \u201cWe are monitoring the potential risks in the EU associated with the dissemination of content that may incite violence, hate and racism in conjunction with major political \u2014 or societal \u2014 events around the world, including debates and interviews in the context of elections.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The EU has long been one of the most aggressively anti-free speech bodies in the world. It has actively supported the evisceration of free speech among its 27 member states. The EU is not \u201cagnostic\u201d when it comes to free speech; it has long championed a type of free-speech atheism.<\/p>\n

We have faced EU officials engaging in Orwellian doublespeak for years.<\/strong> https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/geopolitical\/content-agnostic-eu-official-denies-anti-free-speech-policies-bizarre-letter-congress<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Is Germany Becoming Orwell\u2019s 1984?<\/a><\/h3>\n

In his novel 1984 George Orwell described a totalitarian government that controlled all aspects of human existence. \u201cBig Brother is Watching You\u201d was the reality of this government. George Orwell introduced \u201cNewspeak\u201d, a language that was designed to limit the range of thought. He also defined his concept of \u201cDoublethink\u201d, which is the ability to hold two contradictory beliefs at once and, yet accept both as reality. In 1984, the Thought Police were tasked with actually controlling what people can even think, let alone what they can say! The year 1984 has come and gone, but has George Orwell\u2019s \u201cBig Brother\u201d government finally started to arrive? Are many governments in the world today adopting many of the ideas and tactics outlined in George Orwell\u2019s book? If so, what government or governments are leading the way? Has Germany just put in its own version of \u201cThought Police\u201d? Think about this: There is now a German Government initiative to report your family for wrong think. Dr. Thiel quotes Luke <\/span>12:53<\/span> in our Bible and then goes on to further shine the light of Biblical prophecy on the answers to these \u2018666\u2019 matters. He provides answers from the verses of the Bible that bring prophecy to life.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video:\u00a0Is Germany Becoming Orwell\u2019s 1984?<\/a><\/p>\n

That said, now notice an earlier report about Europe’s Digital Services Act:<\/p>\n

\n

EU\u2019s Digital Services Act Is A Censorship Campaign<\/h2>\n

January 29, 2025<\/p>\n

The European Union is expanding its enforcement of the Digital Services Act (DSA), which has been hardly criticized as a censorship tool. The ruling class, however, pushed the law through under the pretext of combating \u201chate speech.\u201d<\/p>\n

The law applies to all EU-wide legislation and incorporates national legislation from all member states. It also requires platforms to remove \u201cillegal content,\u201d including so-called \u201chate speech,\u201d within 24 hours of being flagged as such. What constitutes \u201chate speech,\u201d however, is often left to the discretion of EU bureaucrats and their allies in fact-checking organizations. It has commonly been anything that goes against the official narrative handed to the citizens by their rulers.<\/p>\n

The application of this law means that content deemed illegal in one country \u2013 whether for allegedly promoting hate, offending religious sensibilities or challenging government narratives \u2013 can be removed across the entire bloc,\u00a0as reported by\u00a0Natural News.<\/em>\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

The EU is expanding its already massive censorship apparatus to enforce the DSA. By the end of 2025, the Commission plans to double its staff dedicated to DSA enforcement, bringing the total to 200. Additionally, the bloc is enlisting \u201clocal coordinators\u201d in member states to ensure compliance.\u00a0 …<\/p>\n

The move comes as the EU appears increasingly concerned about free thoughts and ideas permeating the internet. …<\/p>\n

Ruling elitist, European Commission Vice President Henna Virkkunen recently declared that tech companies who are siding with a free speech narrative pose a \u201cdirect threat to European democracy<\/a>.\u201d Rulers do not like it when the people they are controlling have thoughts and ideas that would put them out of a position of power. https:\/\/www.sgtreport.com\/2025\/01\/eus-digital-services-act-is-a-censorship-campaign\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yes, more and more censorship and surveillance is coming.<\/p>\n

The Bible warns that people will not want to hear the prophetic messages, and despite claims that lies are what is to be censored, that many will prefer to accept lies:<\/p>\n

\n

8 Now go, write it before them on a tablet, And note it on a scroll, That it may be for time to come, Forever and ever:<\/p>\n

9 That this is a rebellious people, Lying children, Children who will not hear the law of the Lord; 10 Who say to the seers, “Do not see,”<\/p>\n

And to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things; Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits. 11 Get out of the way, Turn aside from the path, Cause the Holy One of IsraelTo cease from before us.” (Isaiah 30:8-11)<\/p>\n

6 \u201cDon\u2019t say such things,\u201d the people respond. \u201cDon\u2019t prophesy like that. Such disasters will never come our way!\u201d (Micah 2:6, New Living Translation)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Many people do not want to hear the truth. Notice that is an end time prophecy.<\/p>\n

Steps will be taken! Expect governments to be involved.<\/p>\n

Jesus warned:<\/p>\n

\n

4 … the night is coming when no one can work. (John 9:4, NKJV)<\/p>\n

4… the night cometh, when no man can work (John 9:4 KJV)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In a October 23, 1980 co-worker letter, Herbert Armstrong wrote:<\/p>\n

\n

The Bible warns us the time is just ahead when NO MAN CAN WORK–in the Lord’s Work.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Prophet Amos was inspired to record the following:<\/p>\n

\n

11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God,
\n“That I will send a famine on the land,
\nNot a famine of bread,
\nNor a thirst for water,
\nBut of hearing the words of the Lord.
\n12 They shall wander from sea to sea,
\nAnd from north to east;
\nThey shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the Lord,
\nBut shall not find it. (Amos 8:11-12)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I do not believe that Amos is prophesying that there will be no Bibles left on the earth, but instead that internet censorship will effect the world and that those doing the censoring will not want many biblical truths or warnings from the Bible available.<\/p>\n

That is one reason that I consider that the Digital Services Act is a partial prelude to the coming ‘666’ controls the Bible prophesies. Notice the following:<\/p>\n

15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.<\/p>\n

18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666. (Revelation 13:15-18)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Related to plans for control and surveillance, we put together the following video:<\/p>\n

World Economic Forum, CBDCs, and 666<\/a><\/h3>\n

Are there concerns about CBDCs (Central Bank Digitial Currencies)? The Summer meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) was held from June 27-29, 2023 in China. Did WEF speaker and Cornell University professor Eswar Prasad warn of CBDCs could \u201ctake us to a pretty dark place\u2019? What did the European Commission say about the future of a digital euro and various protections the same week? Is the tweeted statement, \u201cNo one will be able to control how you use your euros\u201d false in the long run according to biblical prophecies, such as Revelation <\/span>13:16<\/span>-18? Is there a real ability to program a CBDC with an expiration date as well as restricting what it could be used to purchase? Has monitoring of purchase transactions been proposed by various European leaders? Does the EU already have a potential enforcement arm of \u2018666\u2019? Has the European Central Bank said that cash was \u201cnot fit for the digital economy\u2019? Are we moving more towards a cashless world? Are things really changing towards that? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel discuss these and other matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our\u00a0 video:\u00a0World Economic Forum, CBDCs, and 666.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As mentioned here numerous times, the ability to monitor buying and selling like the 666 prophecy foretells was not possible when Jesus had the Apostle John pen the Book of Revelation.<\/p>\n

But not only does the technology exist now to do so, governments and globalist organizations are pushing for the implementation of tools that will help fulfill those prophecies.<\/p>\n

\n

The Bible teaches that the European Beast and his supporters will put in totalitarianism beyond what most believe is now possible (cf. Revelation 13).<\/p>\n

He and his supporters will claim to help the climate, economy, etc., but that will not end up well (cf. Revelation 11:15; 18:1-20).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Related to the DSA and similar moves, here is part of number 23 of my list of 25 items to prophetically watch in 2025<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

23. Totalitarian Steps<\/h2>\n

The 13th chapter of the Book of Revelation tells about a totalitarian leader called the Beast rising up, controlling buying and selling (cf. Revelation 13:16-18). …<\/p>\n

Participating in society includes the ability to use a computer, communicate, buy goods, and travel, to name just a few–and the EU’s Digital Services Acts can affect all of that and more.<\/p>\n

The globalists want to be able to monitor who is buying or saying anything.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, if there were to be carbon passports, that would likely be tied in with your purchases so you could be monitored by some official view of how much harm your purchases cause the environment.<\/p>\n

This is helping set the stage for the rise of the Beast who will gain power after the 4th seal of Revelation (which is the ride of the pale horse of death) is opened.<\/p>\n

Expect to see various new totalitarian steps implemented and\/or proposed in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A while back, the Continuing<\/em>\u00a0Church of God<\/a>\u00a0(CCOG) put together the following video on our\u00a0Bible News Prophecy<\/a> YouTube channel related what many groups are working towards:<\/p>\n

Globalism Conspiracy or Convergence?<\/a><\/h3>\n

In May of 2022, the World Economic Forum held a conference where thousands of the world\u2019s elites attended, essentially in support of a \u2018great reset\u2019 to change society. In June 2022, the Bilderberg Group met essentially to do the same thing. In June 2022, Pope Francis told a group invited by Cardinal Kurt Koch, \u201cUnity does not come about by standing still.\u201d Whereas the Roman Catholic group, whose co-president in Marc Stengel, called for more cooperation with the United Nations and apparently supporters of Gandhi. The World Council of Churches also supports the globalist agenda as do the Freemasons and others. Could Satan be the real conspirator behind this? Will humanity be able to bring about utopia? Or can true Christian unity and utopia only come about with the return of Jesus and the Kingdom of God? Will the globalist agenda succeed for a time? Dr. Thiel addresses these and other issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to that video:\u00a0Globalism Conspiracy or Convergence?<\/a><\/p>\n

The ONLY real solution for the problems facing humanity is repentance, the return of Jesus, and the good news of the coming Kingdom of God<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n
