As Christians, there’s many different questions we encounter about what is the proper way to go about living for Christ. However, one thing seems to really bring up complex questions more than other topics: baptism of the Holy Spirit.

In a recent livestream, Isaiah Saldivar answered people’s difficult questions, including whether or not AI text tools such as ChatGPT can interpret tongues.

A recent video surfaced of a woman who claimed ChatGPT was able to accurately interpret her tongues, aligning with how she felt or what she believed she was praying. However, Saldivar is calling this trend not just questionable, but dangerous.

“What do you think of ChatGPT interpreting tongues? It’s a spirit of divination to me,” Saldivar says bluntly. “I don’t know. I saw a video of a lady saying that ChatGPT interpreted her tongues and it was like spot on… I have no clue. I wouldn’t even dabble in that.”

While the idea may sound fascinating to some, Saldivar warns that the source and nature of AI disqualify it from any legitimate spiritual interpretation. “There’s no way, guys. There’s no way that AI… which, by the way, if you don’t know how AI works, it takes all the conglomerate information on the internet… is able to interpret what the Holy Spirit’s praying. No.”

He emphasizes that ChatGPT is not spiritual but a complex system built on analyzing vast amounts of data. “It’s not like it’s a spiritual thing… it’s literally a conglomerate of information,” they explain. “There’s just—it’s not happening.”

The concern isn’t just about misrepresentation, but also about spiritual deception. Saldivar refers to the practice as bordering on witchcraft and warns believers not to entertain it, no matter how intriguing it may seem. “It sounds weird and intriguing and interesting to think about, but I wouldn’t start dabbling and trying to get ChatGPT to interpret your tongues.”

The growing fascination with using artificial intelligence to engage with spiritual practices like interpreting tongues raises serious concerns about discernment in the digital age. While AI can process immense amounts of data, it lacks the divine nature and spiritual authority required to understand or translate the mysteries of the Holy Spirit.

Turning to technology for what is meant to be a deeply personal and supernatural communion with God risks opening doors to deception and confusion. Believers must stay grounded in Scripture, guided by the Holy Spirit and cautious of substituting man-made tools for God-ordained gifts.

Could a prophetic dream about Elon Musk and Donald Trump be in progress as we speak?

Prophetic minister, Chris Reed, is calling for urgent prayer following what he believes is the fulfillment of a prophetic dream he received in December 2024—warning of a public fallout between Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

In a recent message, Reed detailed how current events seem to align with the vision he received and issued a sober warning: “This could separate them in a destructive way.”

Reed began by referencing the growing tension between Trump and Musk, which has sparked concern across political and spiritual communities. “It’s been brewing this week,” he said, pointing to Musk’s recent criticism of legislative efforts, including efforts to end the electric vehicle mandate, which would directly impact Musk’s business ventures with Tesla.

“Trump replies and says, ‘Well, he went crazy. Elon Musk went crazy when I reversed the EV mandate,’” Reed explained.

But for Reed, the issue goes beyond politics and economics. It’s a matter of prophetic significance.

“In a dream, I saw Elon Musk and President Donald Trump develop a disagreement that can become messy and hostile and hurt the restoration of America and the agenda to MAGA—Make America Great Again,” he shared, reading from a note in his phone dated Dec. 21, 2024.

While some have speculated that the rift is staged, Reed disagrees. “This is me, not the Lord—this part,” he clarified. “I don’t think this is a staged thing. I think these are two men who are brilliant but have massive egos.”

Reed expressed concern that the disagreement could slow down momentum for conservative values and the economic and spiritual renewal many are praying for. “We’ve prayed and prayed and prayed for God to restore America, to save America, for a nation to turn to God in a day,” he said. “Well, I was shown that this could hurt the restoration of America.”

Throughout the message, Reed emphasized the biblical principle that prophecy is often given so that believers can intercede and shift the outcome. “The word wasn’t wrong,” he said, referencing the story of Hezekiah. “But it affected his decision-making. He prayed. He repented. He turned his face to the wall. And God added 15 years to his life.”

Reed invited believers to join him in prayer, that egos would be laid down and reconciliation would take place. “This is a serious, serious thing,” he warned. “We don’t need anything to delay or hinder or stop what God is trying to do.”

As tensions rise and prophetic warnings appear to unfold, the need for prayer has never been more urgent. The future of America’s direction—politically, economically and spiritually—may hinge on the unity of key figures and the intercession of the church. Now is the time for believers to rise, stand in the gap and seek divine intervention for the nation’s restoration.

Actor Tim Allen has continued on with his journey through the Scriptures, sharing this week on X that he is diving in deep into the New Testament after completing the Old Testament earlier this year.

“Finished the Old Testament and it is such a gift when I get out of the way and the words and meaning flow,” Allen wrote. “This week I am now in the book of the gospel of Paul. A Roman Jew familiar with Plato, Stoicism and other Greek schools of thought. I am amazed in seven pages!”

Ok specifically reading Apostle Paul’s letter to the Romans.

— Tim Allen (@ofctimallen) June 3, 2025

Back in February Allen made the announcement that after a year of reading the Old Testament he had finally completed it and was just starting in the New Testament.

After nearly a year I have finished entire Old Testament and the experience of re reading, dedicated focus and no drifting has made this a humbling overwhelming experience. What a treasure.

Tim Allen’s journey through Scripture is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God’s truth—not even those in Hollywood. His openness about the impact of the Word is a testimony that God is still moving in unexpected places.

As more celebrities begin to seek truth and encounter the gospel, we’re reminded that revival can come from the most surprising places—and that no heart is too far for God to reach.

Is something mysterious hiding in plain sight?

In the heart of rural Peru, a chilling legend has re-emerged with terrifying real-world implications. Reports have surfaced from an isolated indigenous community claiming they are under assault—by what they believe to be extraterrestrial beings.

Timothy Alberino recently discussed with Shawn Ryan how this village and the terror of the “face peeler” aliens isn’t just a myth, but a real-life situation for many there. Alberino himself made his way to talk to people who have encountered these horrifying beings for a first-hand account. The story, both bizarre and unnerving, intersects with ancient mythology, military operations and questions about forbidden knowledge kept hidden from the public eye.

“When I encountered Talia… she was trembling uncontrollably,” Alberino recounts. “Our hearts broke for this girl. Obviously, severe PTSD.” Talia shared a harrowing experience from one evening in July 2023. As she attempted to knock fruit from a tree in her backyard to make a drink, the sun began to set—and with nightfall came terror. “The incursions only happened after dark,” he said.

This incident is not isolated. Multiple villagers have reported similar encounters that date back to the 1980s. “Some of them thought the face peelers were extraterrestrials… Others believe they were gringos harvesting organs.”

While these claims may sound far-fetched, they coincided with a major U.S. military operation in the region. “There was a joint military operation happening in Peru. It was called Resolute Sentinel,” Alberino explains. “It involved the Air Force. It involved the Marines. It involved Space Force.” The implication? What the villagers saw may not be supernatural at all—but instead, an unintended consequence of classified military activity.

Not only could the reality of these “face peeler” aliens be the sign of something much more sinister, but Alberino also noted the secrecy of elites in regards to underground bunkers and what the government may be preparing for next.

“If we are preparing for a nuclear strike, we would build underground bases and connect them [with] some kind of a rail system,” Alberino says. “You’ve got to be way high up into these organizations before they start to transmit this information to you,” he explains.

The convergence of ancient legends, unexplained sightings and military secrecy paints a chilling picture that defies easy explanation. As the lines blur between folklore and covert operations, the truth may be buried deeper than anyone dares to dig.

Robert Morris recently made headlines after pleading not guilty in court for five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child in regards to the abuse case that allegedly occurred with Cindy Clemishire when she was only 12. Now, additional court filings have revealed shocking details about the knowledge that Gateway Church’s elders had about this case.

According to the Christian Post, these documents claim that the elders of the church knew over a decade ago that Morris had a “highly inappropriate relationship” with Cindy Clemishire. The filings also hold a statement from Morris he was allegedly going to read to the congregation back in 2011 when an anonymous email was sent to both media outlets and all Gateway elders.

In this statement, which was not shared with the Gateway congregation, Morris admitted to acting inappropriately with Clemishire, writing, “I have been told that it was about two weeks before her 13th birthday,” and, “Although I knew she was underage, I was shocked to hear this because she appeared much older. My behavior was completely inexcusable and I am 100% at fault.”

Reportedly, Gateway decided that reading this statement would include issues of “invasion of privacy laws” as well as “publicly embarrass” Cindy Clemishire.

Now, Morris’ lawyer Bill Mateja told The Dallas Morning news that he, “…is certainly deserving of the victim’s punches,” but “is tired of being the punching bag of Gateway’s current leadership as it tries to play its game of blame-shifting.”

Mateja also stated that “Gateway forced out Pastor Morris because he was not ‘transparent’ with Gateway’s leadership about his relationship with Ms. Cindy Clemishire,” but that the church “knew the facts.”

Mateja further noted that Gateway’s decision not to disclose Morris’ interactions with Clemishire was a “…deliberative process that included verifying Morris’ story, consulting with lawyers who advised against disclosure in order to protect the victims’ rights, and fully taking into account the victim’s family’s request that it not be disclosed.”

Back in May, Morris also filed for Gateway to pay around $1 million for his retirement benefits along with payments underway of $800,000 a year until he reaches the age of 70 and $600,000 following that until both he and his wife pass. Gateway has said that Morris “…committed criminal actions against a child and even today refuses to acknowledge the full extent of his criminal actions. Gateway is not obligated under any agreements to pay Robert Morris a penny.”

Have you ever heard the phrase, “Trouble always comes in threes”?

According to evangelist Perry Stone, this isn’t just an old saying—it’s a prophetic principle rooted in Scripture. In a recent episode of Manna-Fest, Stone revealed how this triad of trouble is a strategy often used by the enemy to overwhelm and wear down believers.

Breaking News. Spirit-Filled Stories. Subscribe to Charisma on YouTube now!

“Believe it or not,” Stone said, “there is a biblical pattern where the enemy doesn’t just come once—he comes in threes.” He pointed to the story of Job as one of the most well-known examples. In the middle of Job’s loss over his family, health and all he worked for, three friends came to accuse him of things that were not true. These attacks were not random; they were orchestrated by Satan in a calculated effort to destroy Job’s faith and testimony.

Stone emphasized that this “triple trouble” strategy is designed to target the three most vulnerable areas of a person’s life: relationships, resources and health. “”When the enemy hits you in those three areas — spirit, soul, and body — all at once, it can feel like your entire world is collapsing.” he said.

Another powerful example comes from the life of Jesus. “Jesus went through three temptations in the wilderness,” Stone shared. “Satan attacked Him in three areas: His hunger, His identity and His calling. He asked Jesus to turn stones into bread, jump from the temple and worship him for power.” Each temptation was strategically aimed at undermining Jesus’ purpose and authority. But Jesus resisted every one by declaring the Word of God.

The apostle Paul also encountered a triple threat. In 2 Corinthians 11:26, Paul mentions facing “perils of robbers, perils of my own countrymen and perils by the heathen.” According to Stone, “Even Paul faced threefold dangers coming from every direction.”

So why does this matter for believers today? Stone believes recognizing the enemy’s pattern is key to overcoming it. “When you understand that triple trouble isn’t just coincidence—it’s a demonic strategy—you can pray with focus and fight back spiritually,” he said. “The devil doesn’t want to just discourage you; he wants to disarm you completely.”

Yet even in the face of triple adversity, there is hope. “God always has the final word,” Stone reminded viewers. “Job was restored in the end. Jesus defeated Satan in the wilderness. Paul continued preaching the gospel despite his hardships. So while triple trouble may come, it doesn’t have to destroy you—it can actually make you stronger.”

This teaching is a powerful reminder that trials may come in waves, but God’s grace is deeper still. By recognizing the patterns of spiritual attack, staying rooted in Scripture and remaining steadfast in prayer, believers can stand firm even when the storm comes in threes.

The tribulation, the rapture and the Second Coming of Christ are all topics that Christians vary on in regard to how events will play out. Now, in a passionate and compelling message, Kap Chatfield explores biblical patterns, prophetic illustrations and the message of salvation with an urgent call to preparedness.

Drawing from both scripture and ancient Jewish tradition, he builds a case for the pre-tribulation rapture of the church and highlights God’s consistent desire to rescue His people from wrath.

Look for Kap Chatfield’s upcoming new book, Prosperity Is Not a Curse Word. Available soon on amazon.com.

“Imagine God was bipolar and he forgot that he said [‘It is finished’]… If he was wanting to take us through his own wrath… he would at least give us some instruction about how to endure it,” Pastor Chatfield says.

One of the central arguments is found in Revelation 4:1, where John, the beloved disciple, hears a voice like a trumpet calling him to heaven. Chatfield poses the question: “Could this be more than just a historic narrative account? What if John is functioning as a symbolic stand-in for the church?” From this moment on, John observes the events of judgment from heaven, which Cap believes is a picture of the church being caught up before tribulation begins.

Chatfield also presents a rich prophetic analogy using the ancient Jewish wedding tradition. He describes how, in this tradition, “the groom would begin by leaving his home to purchase the bride with a costly price.” Drawing the parallel, he explains, “Jesus leaves his home in heaven and purchases the bride of Christ with… his own blood on the cross.” Afterward, the groom would return to his father’s house to prepare a place for the bride, who wouldn’t know the day or hour of his return.

This tradition mirrors Jesus’ own words in John 14:2–3: “I go to prepare a place for you… and receive you to myself that where I am, there you may be also.” At an unexpected hour, the groom would return with a shout and a trumpet, take the bride away privately for seven days—foreshadowing, Chatfield argues, the seven-year tribulation period. “Isn’t that so beautiful?” he exclaims.

Ultimately, Chatfield encourages viewers to have a sense of urgency, regardless of one’s rapture viewpoint. “Jesus’s command to you and to me was this: Be ready so you don’t got to get ready.” He urges those without a relationship with Christ to make a public declaration of faith, quoting Proverbs 28:18, “The blameless will be rescued from harm, but the crooked will be suddenly destroyed.”

In a world filled with fear and uncertainty about the future, clarity from Scripture is more vital than ever. As believers wrestle with questions about the end times, teachings like this serve as a timely reminder to stay rooted in God’s Word. Rather than being driven by panic or confusion, we are called to walk in confidence, knowing that God has not destined His people for wrath but for salvation through Jesus Christ.

In a world where faith is often challenged and bold Christianity can attract fierce criticism, Angela Halili and Arielle Reitsma—better known as the duo behind Girls Gone Bible—are standing firm in their calling to lift high the name of Jesus. With raw testimonies, honest conversations and an unshakeable reliance on Christ, these two young women are using their platform to remind a generation that Jesus alone is the answer.

In an interview with the 700 Club Interactive, Halili and Reitsma talked about how God connected them as friends, and how they handle backlash from skeptics online.

Before their lives intersected, each walked a lonely road with God. “I had really fallen in love with Jesus on my own without community,” Halili shares. Reitsma, meanwhile, met Jesus during a time of deep depression. “I would just sit for like five, six hours a day and just cry out to Him. It was the only place I felt relief.”

When they met on a job set, Halili noticed Reitsma crying quietly in a corner and felt led to reach out. “I don’t know who you are, but we’ll get through this together,” she told her. That moment sparked a friendship that became the foundation for Girls Gone Bible. “Our friendship was just built on this—following Jesus and learning about Jesus and falling in love with Jesus.”

Since launching the podcast, the two have become familiar with both encouragement and criticism. When asked how they’ve handled the hate, Reitsma admits, “I don’t know why that made me emotional… I think the scripture that says, ‘Blessed are those who are persecuted’—if you are persecuted for My name, you are actually blessed.” She continues, “There are people in the world who actually never receive the blessing of being persecuted for Jesus.” Halili adds, “We’re not persecuted the way the church is in other countries. We have it easy in comparison.”

Still, the backlash hasn’t been without its emotional toll. “We meet girls who say, ‘I come from such a dark past… and because I saw you guys come from such a past, I now feel safe,’” Reitsma says. “So anytime I hear that, I’m like, it’s worth it.”

In a culture quick to judge and slow to understand, Girls Gone Bible stands as a testament to the transforming power of authentic faith. This has become a platform to wage spiritual war against shame, hopelessness and religious performance with lives laid bare before God.

In a solemn and fiery word, Amanda Grace issued a powerful call for intercession and awakening as a global shaking unfolds.

Grace began with a prophetic declaration: “Fire upon My people,” adding, “For I the Lord thy God am a consuming fire, and that fire consumes what is not of Me.” The word warned that the spirit of pride has gone out to “raise an altar,” seeking to exalt itself “above the leaders of America.” Grace emphasized, “The pride agenda is a multi-headed beast…the homosexual, transgender agenda, the Palestinian agenda, the Ukrainian agenda, the Black Lives Matter agenda…a multi-headed blasphemous beast that comes forth from the same body of pride.”

Grace says that due to deep intercession and prophetic movements in the nation, the spirit of pride had been wounded, but “in its rageful state it is on the move…to stir up strife and persecution.” Yet, judgment is coming. “The crash shall be loud,” Grace said. “There shall be many scandalous falls and a stripping of the façade that they so put forth.”

Grace specifically warned that exposure of corruption will intensify, with a special focus on financial schemes. “Their money laundering shall be exposed,” she said. “It shall leave a gaping hole in their operation…some wounds shall be so great the heads shall be no more.”

These warnings are not only for us in America, but rather for foreign nations as well. “Beware of large gifts from Ishmael,” Grace said, referencing Middle Eastern nations whose alliances may hide snares. China and Russia are both named as aggressors attempting to breach national security, with Putin specifically called out: “King Putin shall lose his crown…you shall yield to Me or it shall be your life.”

European leaders are not exempt from this need to step down from their posts of pride. Grace warned of “humiliating moments” for leaders in France, Germany and the United Kingdom, with internal exposure and spiritual pruning to follow. A redemptive move of God was also promised: “I am lighting a fire in Europe…they shall gather in the streets crying out to Me for deliverance.”

Domestically, Grace also discussed exposure in Congress and the Supreme Court: “One on the Supreme Court shall be exposed for taking bribes…it shall cause a shuffle of the Supreme.” She cautioned leaders not to be swayed by pride or smooth talkers, adding, “David is being tempted to become Saul; Jehu is being tempted to compromise.”

Amid this time of humility, Grace believes God will provide breakthrough in the coming season of Pentecost: “Push your roots down deeper in Me…for where I am about to take you…doors will open during the time of Pentecost.” She prophesied, “I the Lord am pruning out of your lives what is diseased…for a season of double growth to now ensue.”

This prophetic message is a sobering wake-up call to the nations, the church, and every individual who claims to walk with God. The shaking that has begun will not relent until pride is brought low and righteousness is exalted. As judgment exposes corruption and idols fall, it is not only a time of reckoning but also a divine invitation—to return to the altar, to walk in truth and to align with the purposes of God.

How do you navigate life when God gives you a deep and heavy message to share?

Carrying a heavy national prophetic message can weigh deeply on anyone’s spirit. Yet, amidst the gravity of such a calling, maintaining hope and intimacy with God remains essential. In a special interview held at Media Day 2025 presented by Charisma Media, Chris Garcia asked Jonathan Cahn how he personally stays anchored in Christ even when his prophetic messages come with dire warnings.

“…you know, it’s a balance,” Cahn says. “It makes me more dependent on God, not less.” This balance involves holding both the weight of the prophetic message and nurturing personal faith and hope.

Despite the heaviness of messages that God has given to Cahn about America’s necessary repentance, he holds fast to the conviction that hope must never be lost. This tension between being a vessel of the Lord and having true human emotions and needs is the reality for anyone bearing prophetic insight — balancing truth with grace, judgment with mercy.

Ultimately, personal intimacy and time spent in prayer with God is the foundation for sustaining hope. Without that, the burden becomes too much to bear. Garcia and Cahn point out the importance of having a spiritual refuge that doesn’t depend solely on external events or prophetic revelations. This internal reservoir sustains hope when circumstances seem overwhelming.

In the end, navigating life with a heavy prophetic calling is not about shouldering the burden alone but about continually returning to the source of all hope—an intimate relationship with God. Jonathan Cahn’s journey reminds us that even when the weight of truth presses hard, it is God’s presence that renews strength, fuels perseverance and kindles unwavering hope.

For anyone called to speak into challenging times, the invitation stands: anchor yourself in God’s love, and let that eternal connection be the steady light through every storm.
