Benifits - Convienance - Snares

If I am an example, you all are experiencing it. Everything from my life insurance to my banking has transitioned to paperless services for your convenience, allowing us to serve you better. To check any records, obtain monthly statements and transactions, update or change something, etc., consider the difficulty of not having a smart computer and/or a smartphone.

It is now undeniable that the world is transitioning to a cashless system, requiring innovative electronics and connections to participate in society and thrive. How hard will it be to turn someone off for not complying with their continuing changes of terms of service (TOS), whereas you are no longer a valued customer but subservient to them and the system?

It no longer requires a vivid imagination or a conspiracy theory to see how the beast system is developing and implemented. Knowledge and technology are no longer developing linearly over centuries, but now in just weeks.

RFID chips containing all personal information, the size of a grain of rice, and GPS tracking, smartphones downsized and worn as wristwatches. How much longer before that smartwatch (for your convenience) is downsized to a grain of rice and implanted?

Today, many crimes are being solved through the use of smartphones and DNA evidence. Law enforcement and the government maintain and collect DNA databases. Join the military, send Ancestry.com your DNA, get arrested, and they have your biological marker. Unless the power source is removed, you are automatically being tracked by your smartphone and recorded; that’s a fact, Jack.

The old technology of debit and credit cards being chipped will soon become obsolete. No more USB ports, forgetting, breaking, charging, or stealing a smartphone/wristwatch. It will conveniently stay charged by either of the two most sensitive and convertible temperature changes (delta T) of the body, such as the forehead or the back of the hand. By-pass the self-checkout scanners and walk out the door. You and your items will be scanned, and your personal identification account will be debited or credited. Does this still sound like a fairy tale, conspiracy theory, or someone wearing a Reynold’s Wrap pointed hat?

I will omit the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) as we speak, much less the near future capabilities and adaptations. It is now a national concern and priority between our current government administration and hostile countries.

Are we witnessing the prelude to the beast system? I contend, no doubt. If you think your assistants (Siri, Alexa, Gemini, Co-Pilot, Cortana, etc.) are not constantly listening in, think again. We have many experiences and tests that go beyond suspicion.

No, when I got the phone brand new the storage was at about 44%.    Now 15 months later, it's at about 55%....due to updates.

I clean the cache regularly on each app.   

I have never used an SD card.

I use my tablet for coming on the Internet.

@other one  or anyone.   Do you know what "compress file" means?    There is that option on a lot of apps.

 

It's too complicated to say how it works on here, but the compression software can take a file and make it a lot smaller.   When we save a picture in the Jpeg format, it takes the raw data for the picture and makes the file smaller.  When you want to view it again it automatically expands it back to the original size.  Most of my pictures are about 18 megabites in size, but in the Jpeg format reduced down to about 3 meg.  There are built in apps (so to speak) that do that automatically.

I just remembered @ladypeartree said her phone or computer wasn't working.    She took it to a repair place.    They told her she had a lot of updates...she hadn't been updating things.

So I wonder if not updating can create a problem?

Updating can change some things that you might have to get used to.   For instance, when I do a major update on my Galaxy, it changes the looks of the thumbnails and I have to get used to them again.     Not doing updates can let your software get so old it won't work with the programs.   Or mostly the programs (apps) will not interface with the websites as you try and use it.    We had flip phones years ago that stopped working because AT&T discontinued the frequency that the old phones used.   We just got up one morning and they didn't work.   Those were basically just cell phones.

I have an old galaxy s2 tablet that they stopped doing updates on the Android base software because of new hardware on the new tablets and all the app updates would not work with the old s2 so I had to trash it.

At my age, I recall my first computer, manufactured centuries before DOS by the Antikythera Company, which broke and was outdated, lacking technical support, warranty repairs, and upgrades. So, I upgraded and opted for a modern Chinese string and bead computer. In my day, climate change and going green were not an issue, so plop goes the computer, LOL. I hope you get another one soon Kwik.

Brother I still send checks in the mail- have one card for online purchases,single account,not in my name- deposit cash for purchase

I do NOTHING online except WCF and my animal site- that's it. If a store does not take cash then I don't shop there-Any service I have has a wrong phone number and no email available,except my cell phone and it's not my actual sir name..... Even Dr's offices do not have my actual phone number or email address..... too bad,I refuse to share it

I'm probably the only person you know hardly ever  gets spam or junk mail,lol

I thought about what you've posted from day one and do the best I can do not to share my info though I'm sure some of it is somewhere on the dark web- every single store card I possess has a fictitious phone number on it & no email address

You know if I'm still alive here on earth when we can't buy or sell  I'll probably have already been used to it if we go cashless,lol ❤️❤️❤️

The global alignments, alliances, treaties, technology, and the human heart has rapidly aligned with prophetic scripture, so fast, no one can keep up with the significance of these alignments (i.e. Dan. 12:4, Ezek. 38-39, 2 Tim. 3:1-6, Isa. 17, Jer. 39, etc.).  

Our generation is the first time in history that all biblical prophecy has come together, and I believe May 14, 1948, was the day God’s hourglass was turned over. There has to be a nation of Israel for the Book of Revelation and prophecy to be fulfilled.

Matthew 24:33 (KJV) So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

All these things Jesus brought to our attention have come to pass or are rapidly escalating. Jesus mentioned deception four times to grab our attention. Everywhere we look, there is deception, lies, and cover-ups. [Major media, government(s), churches, blood sucking poly-ticks, pharmacy.]

I do not know how much the Lord will allow me to witness, but if my physical tent wears out, He calls me home, or it be the Rapture, either way, I will be meeting Jesus face-to-face very soon. Oh, what a glorious day that will be. Someone ought to pen a hymn on that subject. 😊

Anyway, my main point and question is regarding if anyone can actually be productive and useful(to God or anyone) in today's society without an active cell phone?

Nice question @CaptWalker...I have contemplated the concept myself...in fact I do not own one. I was a director of IT for a San Diego based digital High Tech Company for 10 years...we invented CDMA. I have not been reliant upon a phone in any way for over a year. Friends and family members have offered to buy me a phone and put me on their plan and to pay for it...I simply decline. If I need a phone...they are everywhere...generally I can find one to use...though that can be a touchy subject as you might imagine.

Am I productive and useful “to God” or “anyone” in today's society without an active cell phone? To God...of course...I am His son He loves me...my connection to Him and the rest of His temple dwellers is Spirit...eternal Spirit at that. In that relationship a smartphone is not required?

As for the “productive and useful “to anyone” in today's society without an active cell phone? It’s a broad ask...but my answer is yes. Though I am retired and have been since I was 45...I have picked up several skills and become proficient in them. Computer repair and training, farm and home electrical and plumbing. I am a “as needed” construction manager for a local hop farm and Kraft Brewer...I work with water purification for the onsite brewing, and my summer passion my ¾ of an acre vegetable garden. I typically get by these days without a phone.

Because i have been unemployed for a couple of years now and even with a cell phone i've not been able to get a job or really accomplish much of anything, so then i guess my main question is if maybe God is calling certain people such as myself to live without a cell phone or if maybe i just ran into some really bad luck?

I suppose it could be that God has called some to live without a cell phone...they would know right?

Because i am definitely NOT at all one of those "off grid" type of people and easily get very bored just sitting around twiddling my thumbs, and it seems to me that playing aound with a cell phone cannot be that much worse, so then what is really the big deal as far as a cell phone being that much of a distraction as long as you are a responsible and sensible minded person??

Is this a veiled admission of guilt “CaptWalker?” just kidding...let me share some things I have learned about Smartphone’s in general.

To begin with we should all be fully aware of the fact that “data collection” is the biggest business going today and has been for a number of years. Have you ever heard the saying...”data is the new gold and energy is the new oil”...just familiarize yourself with what is called “data capitalism” it’s been around for years.

Basically all data from every device is what is now being collected. Smart phones are the centerpiece for personal data collection...why is the data collected? There are many reasons that user’s personal and private data is collected...all of it. Additionally it is “bought and sold” over and over to different entities...hence...“data is the new gold?”

It’s a given that most smartphone users data...is collected, bundled and sold for innumerable purposes. It’s a multi-billion dollar business...maybe trillions by now if you include the advent of the latest Artificial Intelligence.

For example...look into things like the “Digital Twin Earth” [Europe] and the “Sentient World Simulation” [Purdue University]...there is so much to all of this...allow me to oversimplify it for brevity. Ideologically...they take all the data they can get on creation...earth, space, and humanity put it all into powerful computers...perhaps “quantum computers” by now...and simulate the world we live in...digitally...and they have been doing it for years.

The Sentient World Simulation (SWS) is a complex computer model that aims to create a synthetic mirror of the real world. It continuously updates and adapts to reflect real-world events, trends, and behaviors. The SWS is designed to capture a comprehensive view of “Whole of Government” operations, including the interplay between military operations and the social, political, and economic landscapes. Sentient...suggesting a sense of perception...like a consciousness...yeh.

Though they do not widely advertise it...this does include human beings. SWS thinks of you as a “digital avatar” who exists in this digital world simulation and your avatar is a compiled volume of all the data they have collected from you and your life...whatever that may be. In this “you are existent” as your “digital self”...it’s “your” avatar. Just add a little imagination and you might understand that via your smart phone data collection...over the years...that your avatar might be a more informed version of you...than you are?  

Here is a snapshot of my years of research in this matter which I have taught my family regarding smart phones and data collection. This is easily verifiable if you venture off the mainstream propaganda system. If MSM is where you get your “facts & knowledge” nothing I say will make any sense.

Avatar profile – data collection – devices – tracking – monitoring – directing

Collecting data, easily done because everything is connected and runs through routers and servers. Data centers are unbelievably huge in many cases...and there is currently billions of dollars going into data centers and the energy to power them. Hence “energy is the new oil”

Well...the data is collected on you and becomes your profile of sorts. Your data is then fed into AI which goes through the collective profile with a fine tooth comb to extract all the information about you that they possibly can. In general they are looking for anomalies and regularities and anything that makes you more “known”...at your character and nature level...in an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of who you are at a personal level.

This then produces an accumulation of behavioral knowledge of you, your life and your relationships...day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year. This is throughout you’re lived and digitally recorded life. Just think of the picture of you...that this compiled avatar may reveal? As you might imagine...things can get morally questionable with where this can go.

For example...AI can continuously, increasingly and accurately predict decisions and future behaviors by parsing through all your live stream and collected data...which is continually updated as your days go by and your new smart phone data is added to the avatar.

Additionally...there has been huge growth in “sensor enabled” technology that is being built into these smart phones. I have compiled a list of 30 sensors that can be integrated into a smart phone...those that I consider primary are...Heart rate monitor, Fingerprint sensors, Iris Scanner, Pulse oxymeter, GPS...some of which can be helpful no doubt. However it is still data collection about you via your smart phone...

Then there are things like the microphone, Camera/Image sensor which can be on a continuous “stand by” mode so that they may operate on their own...listening, watching and recording, providing more data about you to be captured used and sold over and over.

Finally...I am showing you a “data collection system” that tracks behavior and is now capable of offering direction towards a desired result. In other words...AI can know so much about you that it can predict your thoughts, words, emotions and actions with a surprising degree of accuracy. And what’s more troubling...AI is using smart phone technology to “suggest and direct” user’s behavior.

There is just so much to all of this that cannot be mentioned in a post. But the reader should be aware of this...all of the “user data” created by a smart phone and other connected devices...they are data collection devices...among other convenient things. This data is captured by various companies and sold to other companies...there is huge profit in this game.

However...those who produce the data...you and millions of others like you...will probably never see any of the money changing hands in regards to the capture and use of your personal and private data. Depending on how you use your “smart device”...significant portions of your life is being recorded, monitored, organized, manipulated and sold and really there is nothing you can do about it.

As I said earlier...they are now beginning to direct people’s thoughts in an attempt to control them via these same devices.

The idea of large media corporations profiting on humans living out their day to day lives digitally...while the human's that are providing the data sees no compensation...is something akin to being a slave isn't it?

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
