The European Union’s Digital Services Acts is a way for a lot of censorship to happen. Notice a report about it:<\/p>\n

The EU Ministry of Truth Moves to Censor the World<\/h2>\n

July 3, 2025<\/p>\n

The deal establishing the Digital Services Act was first struck in 2022. The EU Commission\u00a0claims<\/a>\u00a0it will ensure that online platforms are held responsible for tackling harmful content. The DSA, which will combine with legislation in individual countries, is meant to be a huge threat. It will give rise to a fully-fledged Ministry of Truth.<\/p>\n

The EU plans to allegedly tame the Internet \u201cWild West\u201d. https:\/\/www.independentsentinel.com\/the-eu-ministry-of-truth-moves-to-censor-the-world\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The above brought the following scripture to mind:<\/p>\n

18 For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; (2 Peter 2:18-19)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Getting back to the ‘Ministry of Truth’ article, it also states:<\/p>\n

On July 1, 2025, the European Union\u2019s Code of Conduct on Disinformation<\/a> became mandatory instead of voluntary. It was originally thought to be a voluntary effort by tech companies to clean up their platforms and it is now an official requirement under the EU censorship law, the Digital Services Act <\/a>(DSA).<\/p>\n

The biggest online platforms and search engines will need to meet strict transparency standards, undergo audits, and show that they can keep what Brussels calls \u201cdisinformation\u201d in check. …<\/p>\n

A spokesperson explained, \u201cCompliance with the Code is voluntary. Compliance with the DSA is not.\u201d<\/p>\n

They try to pass this censorship off as protecting children, but it\u2019s just another tactic to extort money and silence critics. https:\/\/www.independentsentinel.com\/the-eu-ministry-of-truth-moves-to-censor-the-world\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

European Union is taking more steps to be able to monitor, censor, and control information–and notice an earlier article about the EU and a ‘Ministry of Truth’:<\/p>\n

The EU\u2019s Ministry of Truth: A Globalist Power Grab Disguised as a Fight Against \u2018Disinformation\u2019<\/h2>\n

January 10, 2025<\/p>\n

In a chilling move that reads like a page from Orwell\u2019s\u00a01984<\/em>, the European Union is formalizing its role as a gatekeeper of information with the creation of an \u201cInformation Sharing and Analysis Center\u201d under the European External Action Service (EEAS). The declared purpose? To combat so-called \u201cdisinformation\u201d campaigns from foreign actors like Russia and China. But make no mistake\u2014this is not about protecting truth or democracy. It is a brazen attempt by the EU\u2019s globalist elite to\u00a0control opposition to narratives, silence dissent, and reshape public opinion to align with their own agenda.<\/p>\n

A Veil of Legitimacy for Authoritarian Censorship<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The EU\u2019s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell cloaked the initiative in noble rhetoric, declaring that disinformation undermines democracy by distorting public perception. According to Borrell, democracy cannot function if citizens lack access to \u201caccurate\u201d information\u2014defined, of course, by the very institutions that stand to benefit most from this censorship apparatus.<\/p>\n

Under the guise of protecting democracy, the EU has positioned itself as the arbiter of truth. This centralized platform seeks to monitor, analyze, and counter \u201cmanipulated\u201d information in real-time, coordinating with NGOs, member states, and cybersecurity agencies. In reality, this infrastructure risks becoming a weapon to stifle independent journalism, dissenting voices, and any narrative that challenges the EU\u2019s policy positions. \u2026<\/p>\n

By framing the \u201cstruggle for narrative\u201d as an ongoing battle, the EU justifies ever-expanding surveillance and regulation of online platforms\u00a0and pressuring\u00a0companies like Twitter to align with its goals. This centralization of control over digital spaces threatens to erode the freedoms of expression and access to diverse viewpoints.<\/p>\n

The Real Targets: You and Me<\/strong><\/h4>\n

While the EU claims to combat \u201cforeign actors,\u201d its focus on \u201ctoxicity\u201d in information opens the door to policing domestic dissent. The language of combating \u201cbiased choices\u201d and ensuring the \u201cquality of information\u201d is a thinly veiled justification for narrative engineering. If information contrary to the EU\u2019s worldview is deemed \u201ctoxic,\u201d how long before ordinary citizens become the targets of censorship? How long before critics of EU policies are labeled agents of \u201cdisinformation\u201d? https:\/\/rairfoundation.com\/eus-ministry-truth-globalist-power-grab-disguised-as\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yes, the EU is taking steps to control information and yes, this will impact individuals and not just foreign nations.<\/p>\n

In George Orwell’s book, 1984<\/em>, the Ministry of Truth, or Minitrue, is a government ministry responsible for propaganda, historical revisionism, and controlling information. Yet, basically it works to spread lies and manipulate facts to maintain the Party’s control.<\/p>\n

The Europeans are implementing their Digital Services Act, which is another way they are putting in an Orwellian censorship system.<\/p>\n

Was loss of free speech and of the press prophesied?<\/p>\n

Yes.<\/p>\n

The Bible teaches:<\/p>\n

\n

11 \u201cBehold, the days are coming,\u201d says the Lord God,
\nThat 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

That does not mean that there will be no Bibles. But the time will come when those promoting various biblical teachings will no longer to be able to have access to the internet, etc. as before. We are seeing more and more of this.<\/p>\n

The Bible shows more restrictions are coming.<\/p>\n

Jesus said:<\/p>\n

\n

4 I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work. (John 9:4)<\/p>\n

7 \u201cAnd to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write, \u2018These things says He who is holy, He who is true, \u201cHe who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens\u201d: 8 \u201cI know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. (Revelation 3:7-8)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As Philadelphia Christians, we do not give up when a door is closing\u2013we look out for others to be opened. So, in 2023, we greatly increased our radio presence around the world (see also Continuing<\/em> Church of God Multimedia<\/a> page). So far, radio is NOT subject to the type of censorship many governments around the world have been engaging in\u2013despite the problems we faced.<\/p>\n

As far as censorship goes, expect more.<\/p>\n

\n

Europe has already taken steps to push Big Tech to remove speech it does not want to allow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Restrictions on speech are already here and more restrictions are coming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Digital Services Act is a partial prelude to the coming ‘666’ controls the Bible prophesies in 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

While many in the world seem to be impressed by what the Council for Inclusive Capitalism<\/em>, WEF, Vatican, and the UN are seemingly trying to do, their end agenda is repeatedly warned against in the Bible (Revelation 13:1-18, 14:12, 18:4; Zechariah 2:6-7).<\/p>\n

Notice a prophecy warning against such leaders:<\/p>\n

12 \u2026 Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths. (Isaiah 3:12)<\/p>\n

16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed (Isaiah 9:16).<\/p>\n

3 For when they say, \u201cPeace and safety!\u201d then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. 4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. (1 Thessalonians 5:3-4)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While promoting true peace and justice is great, the way that the globalists seem to be going about it is not good.<\/p>\n

Do not fall for it as it will lead to destruction and a totalitarian society. Things like the Digital Service Act will lead to censorship which will also lead to the coming ‘famine of the word’ (cf. Amos 8:11-12).<\/p>\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

Digital identification systems are not the answer.<\/p>\n
