A fourth edition of Jehovah Has Become King is now available. It is online with additional side notes and an active blog. It may be downloaded as a PDF or purchased in softback or Kindle format. AI translations will be made available going forward.
In previous editions, I had elected not to take any royalties on the paperback version, but this time around, I have decided to take a couple of dollars per copy to help cover my distribution costs. If you are so inclined, please consider purchasing a copy for yourself or as a gift for a friend. Amazon lets you select any delivery address you want. So, consider gifting a copy to an elder or circuit overseer. Your support for this work is appreciated.
Much has happened over the 10 years since the regrettably subtitled Final Edition was published, but I have a sense that this 2026 Update will be the last word. Surely, as the world turns, it is becoming more evident by the day that a great conflict is steadily intensifying and will inevitably explode sooner rather than later. This evil world is certainly overripe for a series of catastrophic, man-made disasters orchestrated from the invisible by Satan’s now-imminent expulsion from Jehovah’s presence.
Keeping watch as events unfold is every Christian’s duty. And it will be until such time as the Son of man suddenly arrives as stealthily as a thief in the night, whenever they are saying “peace and security.” Of course, knowing what to expect is important too. False expectations have already been a stumbling block for many Christians and will be more so going forward. Resetting expectations is my intention and hoped-for outcome in publishing the 2026 update of Jehovah Has Become King.
The Watchtower has demonstrated over the years that it values unity over truth. I simply do not share their priority. I originally became one of Jehovah’s Witnesses because I loved the truth. I still do, and I hope you do too. Unfortunately for those who look to it for guidance, the Watchtower no longer functions as the name suggests—as a watchman. The organization has become ossified by its own dogma. Its seers have become institutionalized. The spirit is stifled. The truth is obscured. Bethel used to boast of declaring Jehovah’s judgments. Now it’s become politically correct to avoid offending anyone.
As evidence of their growing contempt for prophecies, the books of the prophets are gradually being deemphasized and even phased out. For example, after finally addressing Rutherford’s interpretative folly of identifying the locust swarms as Jehovah’s Witnesses, now the gatekeepers claim that Joel’s prophecy has no future fulfillment. This recent “adjustment” — essentially deleting Joel — should shock every serious Bible student, but sadly, apparently, no one has even taken note.
“A LAMP SHINING IN A DARK PLACE”
In view of the Watchtower’s rejection of God’s prophetic word, consider my writings as filling the void. Or would you prefer that God’s word remain obscure? Not that I presume to speak for God, but rather, my intent is to project God’s voice by allowing Jehovah to speak for himself by shining a brighter light on prophecy.
By the way, the Watchtower claims that all anointed Christians comprise a “watchman class” who are issuing a warning to Christendom. But since, according to the watchman class, the Jerusalem of Jeremiah’s day no longer prefigures Christendom, thinking persons ought to wonder what Jerusalem actually represents, especially considering that it was the place where Jehovah caused his name to reside.
Peter likened God’s prophetic word to a lamp shining in a dark place, to which we are advised to pay attention until day breaks. Here is what the apostle wrote: “So we have the prophetic word made more sure, and you are doing well in paying attention to it as to a lamp shining in a dark place (until day dawns and a daystar rises) in your hearts.” – 2 Peter 1:19
The illustration’s context concerns the transfiguration of Christ, a foregleam of the parousia, of which Peter was an eyewitness. As if anticipating the Watchtower’s invisible parousia doctrine, Peter reminds us that “it was not by following artfully contrived false stories that we made known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but rather, we were eyewitnesses of his magnificence.”
To underscore the falsity of the Watchtower’s artfully contrived parousia, it is believed that the figurative day dawned in 1914. This is demonstrably false. If it were true, that would mean it is no longer necessary to pay attention to God’s prophetic word as to a lamp shining in a dark place, which, ironically, the leadership of Jehovah’s Witnesses is less and less concerned with, even as the dark night continues. My mission is to provide more oil for your lamps so that they may shine even more brightly as we await the true dawn.
The Watchtower’s invisible parousia phantasm is not something that has been recently contrived. It is actually older than the Watchtower itself—fabricated during the original Alleghany Bible study sessions organized by C.T. Russell. And if you wish to know the truth, the seven-times chronology is something Russell adopted from the Second Adventists. Russell merely tweaked it to point to 1914. The Watchtower has been tweaking and adjusting it ever since to point back to 1914 as “the most important date in all human history.”
As the old saying goes, they have made their bed, and now they must lie in it. And that is the illustration God spoke long ago to describe the Watchtower’s present predicament: “For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the woven sheet is too narrow to wrap up in.” – Isaiah 28:20
“THE APOSTASY COMES FIRST”
Meanwhile, the nearness of the Lord’s day and the unveiling of Christ to the chosen is more and more coming into focus. How so? One of the prophetic markers of the nearness of the dawn of day is a rebellion against God, as Paul foretold: “Let no one lead you astray in any way, because it will not come unless the apostasy comes first and the man of lawlessness gets revealed, the son of destruction.”
Let’s be honest with ourselves. Despite the apostle’s exhortation, Jehovah’s Witnesses have allowed themselves to be led astray. In what way? By believing that the Lord’s day is here, the very thing the apostle urged Christians not to believe, even if the message appears as “inspired expressions” or written material as though from the apostles.
To be sure, the foretold apostasy is not the falling away that developed centuries ago, when the pagan emperor Constantine cleverly inserted himself as the leader of the church. Of course, we know the original Christian congregation was gradually infiltrated with agents of Satan and came under the control of the empire, and exists now as the conglomeration of thousands of denominations, sects, and cults known as Christendom.
But isn’t the existence of the Christian Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses the result of the restoration of the congregation of the Firstborn? I have no doubt that it is.
The apostasy destined to come first must be a falling away among the restored anointed congregation—occurring as an immediate prelude to the authentic coming of Christ and the manifestation of his presence. That is when the daystar will arise in the hearts of the chosen. And in the recent period since the Final Edition, the apostasy within the leadership of the Watchtower has come more to the fore.
Certainly, the Watchtower’s secret 10-year political partnership with the UN was an act of apostasy—or at least a manifestation of the “mystery of this lawlessness.” However, since then, it has become more evident.
Evidence of this lawlessness is the confiscation of over one thousand Kingdom Halls—mostly in the United States. Not only has Bethel evicted thousands of Jehovah’s Witnesses from Kingdom Halls they built and paid for and solemnly dedicated to Jehovah, flipping hundreds of properties as if common real estate, but the organization has set up its own private hedge fund in Ireland to parlay their ill-gotten gains—and probably using borrowed money to leverage their bets, as all hedge funds do. Bethel has stolen from Jehovah, becoming partners with Wall Street thieves, and has turned the house of God into a cave of robbers. This will not end well.
Undoubtedly, their Wall Street consultants have advised the Society’s directors to sell off valuable property while the market is hot. In addition to offloading the Brooklyn headquarters facility, reportedly for a billion dollars, the highly prized real estate in London and dozens of facilities connected to the branch campus in Rome were also liquidated.
Having highly skilled construction volunteers at their disposal, the directors are obviously profit-driven—offloading valuable real estate, then purchasing cheap land in run-down areas such as East London and refurbishing an office complex in Bologna, Italy. With free labor at their disposal, the temptation must be too great to resist. From a business standpoint, it is brilliant. But ought servants of God be exploited to construct private residences for the masters? With the rise of remote work, other than printeries, why does the Watchtower even need sprawling headquarters facilities?
There is a chapter in the 2026 update titled “The Pandemic.” Although we do not have the receipts, the anecdotal evidence, coupled with God’s prophetic word, indicates that the men running the Watchtower sold Jehovah’s sheep for the equivalent of 30 pieces of silver per head.
Although some may argue that the Governing Body did not issue a vaccination mandate for the masses, they certainly did for their special full-time workers—numbering about 67,000 as of 2017. Bethelites, full-time disaster and construction teams, special pioneers, missionaries, and circuit overseers were required to submit their vaccination status to health services, with the understanding that if they did not have a valid medical reason, they would have to leave their full-time work. The Governing Body banned dedicated full-time servants of Jehovah from continuing in their ministries without submitting to the World Health Organization’s injections.
As for the millions of other Christians who were not in the so-called full-time service, the Governing Body used its authority to promote the vaccines as if they were a special provision from heaven so that God’s people could remain in the land of the living. The Watchtower even purchased large supplies of the vaccines to distribute to branches in undeveloped countries that could not afford them. Not to be forgotten, the Governing Body chided JWs as being headstrong, open to no agreement, and self-assuming if they chose not to take the vaccine. Elders were threatened with judicial action if they dared to urge their congregations to be cautious.
How many of Jehovah’s Witnesses have already died or will yet perish from having taken the mRNA injections is unknowable. Jehovah knows. Surely, though, if using one’s office as the spokesman for Jehovah’s earthly organization while accepting money to promote a deadly serum as being a gift from God is not apostasy, then what is?
WHEN THEY ARE SAYING “PEACE AND SECURITY”
And then there is Donald Trump, otherwise known as The Disruptor. Unhindered by the politically motivated impeachments that marred his first term in office, defying an assassin’s bullet that grazed his ear, President Trump is dismantling the globalists’ machine the second time around. He is securing the borders. He is defunding the UN. Threatening to leave NATO. Taking control of London’s Federal Reserve. Extracting the US from dozens of globalist organizations. He’s calling out the pope for his globalist alliance and destroying London’s dope running operations, and may go after some of London’s banks for money laundering for the Iranian mullahs. Trump’s Department of Justice is indicting some of the deep-state spooks who concocted the Trump-Russia-collusion hoax. It should be noted that London’s MI6 was deeply involved in the attempted coup. And no doubt that is why Trump is moving to end the Anglo-American Special Relationship. Essentially, the post-WW2 world order is being overturned. What will replace it is a topic considered in the updated Jehovah Has Become King.
Most interesting, Trump has set up a Board of Peace and seems to be on a mission to not only permanently end London’s forever wars, but to realign the US with Russia. Fixing the Iranian problem seems to be a prerequisite for realigning the global chessboard.
Some Evangelical zealots have even anointed Trump as the chosen one destined to set the stage for the second coming of Jesus Christ and the war of Armageddon. And maybe, just maybe, they might be right, for once.
Not only is this the foretold “pushing” by the king of the south, and evidence of the iron and the clay not sticking together, but it is sure to elicit a response from the ages-old imperium that will not allow the upstart president to make America great again and disrupt the empire’s scheme for total control and massive population reduction. Something has got to give soon, and prophecy reveals what that “something” is!
So, in recent months, the world has been brought closer to the edge of the abyss, and paradoxically, the stage is set for their saying “peace and security”—the trigger for the “sudden destruction” that will befall the head of the beast and the global system it oversees.
It is rich with irony that, as more and more people around the world express concern about the seemingly inalterable march toward global war, the soon-to-be-dissolved “watchman class” has nothing to say about current events, other than that people are becoming faint with fear due to climate change. In this, the organization’s seers are themselves fulfilling prophecy by being oblivious to the nearness of the Lord’s day. Indeed, as Jesus said to the Pharisees: “You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but the signs of the times you cannot interpret.”
The question Jehovah long ago posed in prophecy is more relevant now than ever before: “Who is blind except my servant, so deaf as the messenger I send? Who is so blind as the one rewarded, so blind as the servant of Jehovah? You see many things, but you do not keep watch. You open your ears, but you do not listen.” – Isaiah 42:19-20
Finally, since the previous edition in 2016, artificial intelligence has been advancing rapidly. Thousands of data centers have been and are being built. The speed with which this build-out is occurring is astonishing. It is almost like an emergency wartime program. And in a way, it is. The thousands of massive, energy-intensive data centers are intended to create a network to support supercomputing and artificial intelligence. And not just AI, ultimately, artificial superintelligence.
Superintelligence will exceed all human intelligence. It seems inevitable, and frankly, frightening, because even the people designing the system have admitted they do not know for certain how virtual superintelligence will turn out. Apparently, supercomputers will be able to crack every code, every password, and every last vestige of anonymity, privacy, and security. It sounds incredible, like science fiction, but is it possible for a computer algorithm to take on a life of its own? We shall find out shortly, as it seems to me that the necessary infrastructure is in place, that the last king will employ against us when the image of the beast comes alive and channels the voice of Satan, the Devil, the outgoing god of this world.
Simultaneously, the central banks are ready to roll out digital currency. I expect the Bank for International Settlements to serve as the nexus of the CBDC system. Coupled with this, there is a move to implement digital ID to track our every move, word, and transaction.
And lastly, “programmable currency” is in the works and near to being rolled out. Programmable currency will allow the issuer to determine whether the end user may continue participating in the system based on their compliance. We have already seen how some banks have debanked persons for their political and religious views. China has been using a social credit score system for a few years, and more and more Chinese people are being driven into homelessness because they have been locked out of the economy, unable to travel by plane or train, and unable to receive a wage—essentially blacklisted from society.
We should not suppose that these things will be implemented gradually over the years. With everything coming into place simultaneously, the financiers who rule the Devil’s dark world intend to deliberately crash the present nation-state system—no doubt under the cover of war.
Really, they have no choice. War in heaven may already have begun. The Devil is preparing the trap for his eventual ouster from heaven. A global, civilizational collapse is certain. It is predestined by the very word of God. Where in the Bible does it say that? I am glad you asked: “I saw that one of its heads seemed to have been fatally wounded, but its mortal wound had been healed, and all the earth followed the wild beast with admiration.” – Revelation 13:3
It is not possible now to disabuse Jehovah’s Witnesses of the Watchtower’s folly concerning the Anglo-American duo supposedly experiencing the symbolic fatal head wound as a result of the First World War, from which they emerged victorious. Their sleep is too deep, the spell too powerful. But the system’s crash will be impossible to ignore or explain within the Watchtower’s present prophetic framework.
And speaking of crashes, because the Watchtower is built upon falsehoods such as those described, civilization’s collapse will also bring down what God describes as a highly raised wall—it is a doctrinal wall. This is what God has said: “Since you reject this word and you trust in fraud and deceit and you rely on these, so this error will be for you like a broken wall, like a bulging high wall ready to fall. It will crash suddenly, in an instant.” – Isaiah 30:12-13
“EYES LIKE HUMAN EYES IN THIS HORN”
Since 2016, another aspect of prophecy has come into sharper focus. First, it should be obvious that the little horn of the ferocious 10-horned beast in the seventh chapter of Daniel did not ascend when the Spanish Armada was defeated by the British and North Sea gales in 1588. What does the ascending horn with human eyes and a mouth represent, though? It symbolizes the eighth king that the globalists are preparing now. The human eyes of the ascending horn surely represent the surveillance state that is being built.
It appears that Palantir Technology is at the forefront of developing AI to function at the core of the all-seeing surveillance state, even developing assassin drone programs to identify and eliminate those deemed to be enemies of the state.
When the two-horned beast comes back from the Grave, also known as the abyss, and it will order mankind to make an image of the revived beast, and the image will come alive and begin to speak and kill those who do not comply, it seems certain that programmable money will be the means of compelling mankind to worship the beast and prevent the dissenters from buying or selling.
Are Jehovah’s Witnesses even aware that the Watchtower stands on the absolutely preposterous claim that people began receiving the mark of the beast in 1922? Sadly, the apostolic exhortations to make sure of all things and to test the inspired expressions to see whether they originate with God do not resonate with Jehovah’s Witnesses. Even questioning the Watchtower’s teachings is tantamount to apostasy. This is why God long ago stated what is now demonstrably true: “Only terror will make them understand…”
Before the final hour of test, before the one-hour rule of the eighth king begins, Christ will enter the world stage to cut short the great tribulation (undoubtedly a terror-inducing nuclear disaster), a tribulation that has never occurred before or will ever occur again.
What is the purpose of a Savior unless it is to actually save mankind from extinction on account of the chosen ones?
We are already obligated to serve Christ since he sacrificed his perfect life on our behalf. However, when God intervenes to save us from certain death, only the hard-hearted, entrenched enemies of truth and haters of Jehovah will attribute salvation to the beast and deny that they owe their lives to the Lord of the whole earth, thus marking them worthy of permanent death. The ultimate truth of Jesus’ words will be demonstrated then: “Now this is the basis for judgment: that the light has come into the world, but men have loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were wicked.” – John 3:19
Contrary to the Watchtower’s falsidical proclamation, Jehovah did not become King in 1914 and then again in 1919. But he is coming.
It is intended that this latest iteration of Jehovah Has Become King will hold the leadership accountable by putting them on notice once again. Also, despite the negative and downcast message conveyed, it is my hope that this unique interpretation of scripture will go viral when everything blows up and might inspire faith, hope, and courage that will carry us through the onrushing tempest of Jehovah, soon to engulf the world.
