Near-Death Experience Strengthened Trump’s Spiritual Resolve

Something changed in President Donald Trump on that fateful day in Butler, Pennsylvania.

The attempt on his life did more than shake the political world—it deepened his faith in God.

“I believed in God, but I feel much more strongly about it now. Something happened,” he said. It was a moment of clarity, the kind that turns a man’s heart towards God. And Trump isn’t just talking about his faith—he’s acting on it. He has signed an executive order establishing a faith office, ensuring that religious liberty remains a priority in his administration. More than that, he’s standing against the growing anti-Christian bias in America.

That bias has never been clearer. Pro-life advocates are arrested, homeschooling families are scrutinized and parents who push back against radical policies find themselves targeted. But Trump’s renewed faith reminds us of something essential—this country was built on the faith of its leaders. Before him, many presidents openly embraced their belief in God, and their leadership was shaped by it.



Faithful Presidents Who Came Before Trump

  • George Washington – In his farewell address, he warned that religion and morality were “indispensable supports” to America’s success. He knew that without God, the nation would falter.
  • John Adams – Declared that the Constitution was made “only for a moral and religious people” and would not work for any other.
  • Thomas Jefferson – Though often misrepresented as a secularist, he attended church services in the U.S. Capitol and said, “God who gave us life gave us liberty.”
  • Abraham Lincoln – Instituted “In God We Trust” on U.S. currency and frequently referenced divine providence in his speeches, believing that America’s survival depended on faith.
  • Ulysses S. Grant – Called for “acknowledging dependence upon Almighty God” in his presidential proclamations.
  • Teddy Roosevelt – Spoke openly about his Christian faith, regularly attended church, and saw religion as the moral compass of the nation.
  • Franklin D. Roosevelt – Distributed Gideon’s New Testaments to millions of World War II soldiers, ensuring they carried the Word of God into battle.
  • Harry Truman – Established the National Day of Prayer as an annual event, reinforcing America’s reliance on God.
  • Dwight Eisenhower – Added “under God” to the Pledge of Allegiance and included a prayer in his inaugural address.
  • John F. Kennedy – Declared that “the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.”
  • Ronald Reagan – A champion of pro-life values, he compared the fight against abortion to Lincoln’s fight against slavery, arguing that a nation cannot stand if it denies life to the unborn.
  • George H.W. Bush – Opened his presidency with prayer and continued to speak about the necessity of faith in public life.
  • Jimmy Carter – Often quoted Micah 6:8: “What does the Lord require of thee but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”

Through the Prophetic Lens: Unveiling the End Times

In the most recent episode of ‘Revelation Decoded,’ Rabbi Kirt Schneider brings striking clarity to the biblical prophecies surrounding the last days. With his signature passion and depth of knowledge, he walks his audience through Scripture, connecting ancient prophecy to the world we see unfolding before us.

“The Hebrew Bible has a lot to say about the tribulation and the last days,” Rabbi Schneider begins, immediately framing the discussion around the prophetic voices of Jeremiah and Daniel. These seers, he explains, foresaw a period of unparalleled upheaval—what the prophet Jeremiah calls “Jacob’s trouble.” It’s a warning that, according to Schneider, is as relevant now as it was when first recorded.

One of the most compelling threads in this episode is Israel’s central role in God’s plan for both judgment and redemption.

“God loves the Jewish people. He loves Israel with an irreversible love,” Rabbi Schneider declares, emphasizing that Israel’s calling remains unchanged despite centuries of persecution. That love, however, has not shielded them from suffering. “Anti-Semitism is a disease, it’s spiritual… the devil hates God.” Schneider doesn’t shy away from confronting the reality of historic and modern hatred toward the Jewish people, describing a personal encounter with an anti-Semite who accused Israel of committing atrocities akin to those of Hitler.



But if history has shown anything, it’s that Israel remains at the heart of God’s redemptive work. The rabbi points to the words of Yeshua Himself: “You’ll not see me again until you’re saying, ‘Baruch haba b’shem Adonai.’” The return of the Messiah, he asserts, is directly tied to the Jewish people recognizing Yeshua and calling upon Him. “Salvation begins with the Jewish people… and the culmination of God’s plan of salvation will come with the Jewish people coming to faith.”

This connection between Israel, the Tribulation and the return of the Messiah is one that Rabbi Schneider illustrates with both Old and New Testament Scriptures. He cites Yeshua’s warning from Matthew 24: “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not happened since the beginning of the world until now, nor shall there ever be.” The language echoes Daniel’s prophecy: “There shall be a time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation.” The rabbi doesn’t mince words—what’s coming is unparalleled in history.

He also draws attention to the comparisons Yeshua made between the last days and the days of Noah and Lot. “The earth was corrupt before God and filled with violence,” Schneider quotes from Genesis. “Sex and violence is what sells,” he adds, urging his audience to reflect on modern entertainment and its glorification of immorality. This is a clear message that society is mirroring the very conditions that, according to Scripture, preceded divine judgment.

‘The View’ Unleashes Dark Fury on Elon Musk’s Child: A Sign of Demonic Oppression

There are few things more enraging than watching the innocent being attacked by those who revel in bitterness and rage. Whoopi Goldberg and “The View” panelists have hit a new low, lashing out at a 4-year-old child—Elon Musk’s son, “Little X.” This isn’t just political hostility. This is something darker, something that bears a striking resemblance to the spiritual oppression described in Scripture.

Conservative podcaster Benny Johnson put it bluntly: “The childless, hideous witches of ‘The View’ who have literally nothing to live for other than their own anger and nihilism have decided to attack Elon Musk’s 4-year-old son.” That’s not hyperbole. That’s an accurate depiction of what we’re witnessing—adults, devoid of joy and family purpose, viciously targeting a child simply because they despise his father.

A Biblical Parallel to Demonic Oppression

The Bible gives us clear descriptions of what demonic oppression looks like. In Mark 9, a boy is tormented by a spirit that seeks to destroy him, throwing him into fire and water to ruin his life (Mark 9:22). The spirit has no real reason to attack the boy—only an insatiable hatred for life and innocence. This mirrors what we’re seeing from Goldberg and her ilk. They mock; they sneer; they attempt to tear down a child who has done nothing but exist in a loving, father-led household.

Goldberg’s attack also echoes the account in Luke 8:26-39, where Jesus encounters a man possessed by a legion of demons, living among the tombs, naked, shrieking and utterly consumed by his hatred for the living. What does Jesus do? He casts out the demons, restoring the man’s dignity. What do the modern-day Pharisees on “The View” do? They embrace their demons, spreading their venom, unable to tolerate the sight of a father loving his son.



“That’s when you know they have nothing else to say—the audience laughs after they pick on a child,” Johnson said. “Pure evil. Truly.” And he isn’t exaggerating. This is exactly what darkness does—it attacks the light.

The Power of Present Fathers

But here’s the real reason the left hates Elon Musk. It’s not just because he supports Trump or because he’s dismantling their sacred cows such as government overreach and corporate censorship. It’s because he is a present father. A strong father. A father who leads.

Musk isn’t parading his son as a prop—he’s demonstrating what real, engaged fatherhood looks like. He takes Little X to major events. He spends time with him. He includes him in the journey of life, preparing him for leadership and responsibility. That’s what terrifies the left.

Get your FREE CHARISMA NEWSLETTERS today! Stay up-to-date with current issues, Holy Spirit news, Christian teachings, Charisma videos & more!

Fatherhood is the greatest antidote to the moral and societal decay that people like Goldberg promote. A present, loving father instills values, discipline and purpose. The Bible commands fathers to raise their children in the fear and instruction of the Lord (Eph. 6:4). Studies show that children with involved fathers perform better in school, are less likely to engage in crime and have higher self-esteem. Musk isn’t just shaping his son’s future—he’s demonstrating a model of fatherhood that the radical left cannot stand.

“If you’re a father, you will really understand,” Johnson said. “There’s nothing more motivating than looking at the future of your children and saying, ‘What will I give them?’”

Johnson gets it. Fathers who build, who protect, who invest in their children are the foundation of strong families—and strong nations.

Is Trump’s Administration the Key to Building the 3rd Temple?

The political landscape has shifted, and with it, a renewed sense of anticipation among those watching biblical prophecy unfold. With Donald Trump back in office, speculation surrounding the rebuilding of the third temple in Jerusalem has surged, fueled by statements from Israeli leaders and religious groups.

Lauren Caron of Certainty4UncertainTimes opened the discussion by noting Trump’s long-standing support for Israel and the potential role his administration could play. “He has a lot of people that are in his administration as well that seem to be very supportive of the Jews wanting to be able to rebuild their Temple too,” she said. This, she suggests, could mark a major turning point in efforts that have been on hold for years.

Mondo Gonzales of Prophecy Watchers expanded on this, emphasizing the political maneuvering behind the scenes. “Netanyahu is looking … he recognizes and he always has the existential threat of being surrounded by either Hezbollah or Hamas,” he said, explaining how Israel’s security concerns have delayed progress.



One of the biggest developments involves the red heifer purification ceremony, an essential step toward restoring temple worship. “The ceremony … was supposed to happen in the Passover to Pentecost window of 2024,” Gonzales explained. However, due to the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks and tensions with the Biden administration, plans were put on hold.

But things have changed. With Trump in office, Israeli rabbis are suddenly hopeful. “With Trump now in, the rabbis … are living on cloud nine in believing that this could be the year,” Gonzales noted. The momentum is back, and with major Jewish festivals on the horizon, many believe the red heifer ceremony could happen sooner rather than later.

One of the key factors in the urgency? The red heifers themselves. “The longer they wait, the longer there’s a potential for the three remaining red heifers to become disqualified,” Gonzales pointed out. As they age, even a single gray hair could render them unusable for the purification rites.

Adding another layer to this unfolding story is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s personal conviction. According to Gonzales, Robert Mawire revealed that “Netanyahu told [him] privately … ‘I feel that God has called me to be the prime minister who helps rebuild the third temple.’” Whether a true divine calling or a political calculation, his statement raises eyebrows—and expectations.

Unveiling the Super Bowl’s Hidden Messages and the Great Deception

Every year, the Super Bowl is a showcase of more than just football—it’s a stage for the world’s most extravagant and carefully crafted commercials. But what if these ads were more than just harmless entertainment? What if they were part of something much bigger? L.A. Marzulli certainly thinks so, and his breakdown of a particular ad featuring celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay raises serious questions about predictive programming and the coming Great Deception.

“Folks, here’s the ad,” Marzulli begins, referring to a commercial that seemingly takes place in Area 51—the infamous military base long rumored to be the hub of extraterrestrial activity and back-engineered alien technology. “It’s meant to look like Area 51… Why are they doing this predictive programming?”

In the ad, Ramsay is tasked with cooking for an alien species, using what is described as “top secret alien cooking technology.”

The catch?

The commercial explicitly states that this technology was developed from an alien spacecraft—a revelation delivered with a wink and a nudge, as if it’s all just a joke.

But Marzulli is not laughing.

“Unfortunately, eight years ago, the pan was developed using material from an alien spacecraft,” Marzulli quotes from the ad, before adding, “There it is! How many times do we have to hear this? And now it’s in a commercial.”

According to Marzulli, this is a deliberate effort to normalize the idea that extraterrestrial technology has been integrated into human society. He connects it to the claims made by whistleblowers like David Grusch, who testified before Congress about the U.S. government’s crash retrieval program—a program that allegedly recovers and reverse-engineers non-human craft. Marzulli points to Philip Corso’s book, “The Day After Roswell,” which outlines how key technological advancements over the past decades—fiber optics, integrated circuits, night vision—may have originated from recovered alien tech.



“People think this is all tongue-in-cheek, but then we get Tim Burchett telling us what’s going on, we get David Grusch telling us there’s a crash retrieval program… the list goes on,” Marzulli argues.

But the deception runs deeper than mere disclosure, he warns. According to Marzulli, this is not about extraterrestrials at all—but about fallen angels masquerading as visitors from another world.

“For the millionth time,” he insists, “these are interdimensional entities—I.E., fallen angels.”

The predictive programming doesn’t stop with alien technology—it extends into spiritual deception. Marzulli highlights a subtle but intentional Hindu “Namaste” gesture made by an AI-generated alien in the ad. “Watch this entity… see it go like this?” he asks, demonstrating the movement. “That’s Hinduism. That’s spiritual deception.”

For those who dismiss this as paranoia, Marzulli reminds them of history. The gods of ancient civilizations—the very ones people worshipped—were likely the same deceptive beings operating today under a new guise. “When they come here, they will say they created all life on this planet. That they started the world’s religions. That they jumpstarted civilization. And at this critical moment, they are back to usher mankind into a ‘golden age.’”

This, he warns, is the Great Deception.

Marzulli ties this to biblical prophecy, specifically referencing 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7, which speaks of “the restrainer”—a force holding back the final deception until the appointed time.

Ezekiel 38 and the Road to War: What’s Leading Us There?

Amir Tsarfati’s latest Mideast update is nothing short of urgent. Speaking from Israel, he paints a dire picture of the situation in Gaza, the hostage crisis and what he sees as a prophetic unfolding of events. Tsarfati emphasizes the failures of the current hostage deal, an emboldened Hamas and President Donald Trump’s stance, which he argues is stronger than that of the Israeli government itself.

The core issue, according to Tsarfati, is that Hamas is leveraging hostage negotiations to manipulate Israel into ending the war and allowing the terror group to remain in power.

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

“Hamas tried to send a message to the Israeli government and to the public. First of all, to the public, he wanted division. He wanted pressure on the government,” he said. He also noted that Israel’s strategic withdrawal from the Netzarim corridor has given Hamas a psychological victory: “Now Hamas is in a euphoria thinking that the heavy terrorists are out, Israel is completely out of anything that blocks us from going back to north.”

However, the turning point came when Trump responded to the horrific conditions of the released hostages.



“If all of the hostages aren’t returned by Saturday at 12 o’clock, I think it’s an appropriate time, I would say, cancel it and all bets are off and let hell break out,” Trump declared. Tsarfati argues that Trump understands the necessity of permanently removing Hamas and ensuring that they never return to power: “He is not evacuating Israelis. He is not destroying any Israeli home. He is evacuating close to 2 million want to destroy Israel.”

Beyond the immediate crisis, Tsarfati ties these developments to biblical prophecy, particularly the Ezekiel 38 war. “If anything, if anything in the prophetic timeline, if anything, Israel is now moving fast towards becoming safe, secure with unwalled villages and cities, which is exactly what we need to have at the eve of Ezekiel 38 war.” He explains that before such a war can occur, Israel must feel a sense of security, which he believes will come only after Hamas, Hezbollah, and other hostile forces are neutralized.

The role of the United States is crucial in this prophetic landscape.

According to Tsarfati, America’s decline or withdrawal from global affairs could set the stage for the prophesied conflict. “To be honest with you, in order for the Ezekiel War to start and for an international assault on Israel to happen, I can’t see America being strong.”

Additionally, Tsarfati suggests that the rapture would play a significant role in weakening America: “If you take the believers out of America, what is left in America? What is left?”

Occult’s Grip on Society: Derek Prince’s Timeless Warning

We must ask ourselves: Have we ignored the warning signs?

Decades ago, Bible teacher Derek Prince warned of the dangers of seeking supernatural knowledge outside of God. Today, his words ring truer than ever as the occult infiltrates mainstream culture, from Taylor Swift’s music laced with dark spiritual themes to Blizzard Entertainment’s ‘Diablo IV’ online gamin community normalizing demonic imagery, and Hocus Pocus teaching young audiences that witchcraft is harmless fun. The enemy is no longer hiding in the shadows—he is flaunting his influence in broad daylight.

Prince made one thing clear: “Almost any form of supernatural knowledge is very, very dangerous.” He emphasized that there are only two sources of supernatural power—God or Satan. “If it doesn’t come from God, it does come from the devil.” Yet, today’s culture encourages people, particularly young audiences, to explore the dark arts. From Ouija boards to tarot cards, these practices are no longer just lurking in obscure corners of occult bookstores; they are sold in mainstream retailers, promoted on social media and glamorized in entertainment.



We see evidence of this in music, movies and video games with companies and artists incorporating occultic imagery and lyrics that openly reference summoning spirits. Taylor Swift’s “Willow” music video, for instance, showcases ritualistic imagery that mirrors actual pagan, aka demonic, practices. Prince warned of this deception, explaining that many unknowingly tie themselves to false gods through supernatural pursuits: “If we get into any other supernatural realm of visions or revelations or knowledge or prediction, and we didn’t go by Jesus Christ, we got into the realm of evil and of Satan.”

Prince also noted how the occult often follows generational lines, passing through family bloodlines: “A grandmother who’s a fortune-teller or a clairvoyant is liable to have one favorite grandchild… that favorite grandchild will be the recipient of that evil supernatural power.” This warning should make parents and grandparents take notice—what spiritual doors are being opened in their children’s lives through exposure to modern occultic trends?

As Prince rightly stated, “We need to repent, we need to revoke the claim that they have over us, and we need to loose ourselves from their dark evil influence.”

Prophetic Warnings Unfold: The Harbinger of Water Scarcity

Water is life. Without it, civilizations collapse, wars ignite and famine spreads.

Evangelist Perry Stone has sounded the alarm on what he calls “the prophetic harbinger of the coming water shortage.” According to Stone, biblical prophecy and current global trends point to an impending crisis that could reshape the world as we know it.

“The next wars will be over food and the water supply,” Stone warns. “When I say one of the next wars, we’re talking about wars that will happen globally.”

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

Stone ties this to Scripture, pointing to Revelation 8:10-11, and in Revelation 16, the crisis deepens. “The second Angel poured out his vial upon the sea, and it became as the blood of a dead man, and every living soul died in the sea. And the third Angel poured his vial upon the rivers and the fountains of water, and they became as blood.” Stone emphasizes that while these events unfold in the Tribulation, current signs suggest water scarcity is already becoming a critical issue worldwide.

He draws attention to the Euphrates River, which has been a lifeline for the Middle East for millennia but is now dwindling. “The sixth Angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates, and the water thereof was dried up that the way of the kings of the East might be prepared.” Stone notes that modern geopolitical realities align with this prophecy: “Turkey has five dams in which they can control the flow of the Euphrates River…the Euphrates River has been low for quite some time.”



The issue extends beyond the Middle East. Water disputes are growing between nations across the globe:

  • Pakistan and India – Ongoing tensions over shared water resources.

  • China and Mekong nations – Concerns over China’s control of upstream water sources.

  • U.S. and Mexico – Disputes over the Rio Grande and Colorado River.

  • Tennessee and Georgia – Past conflicts over water access during droughts.

  • Israel and Jordan – Cooperation and tensions over Jordan River water usage.

In Stone’s view, water scarcity is not just a political or environmental issue—it is a fulfillment of biblical prophecy. “Somewhere prophetically there will come war… over the ability to make food because do you have the water to be able to make the food to feed your people?” The book of Revelation describes famine as a direct consequence of water shortages: “When you see that there’s going to be a famine and there’s going to be rationing of bread and food, that’s the reason why. Once the water supply becomes polluted… we could use the plants on the ocean… but it takes years to build them.”

Why the Red Heifer Must Be Perfect and Unblemished

The red heifer holds a unique and sacred place in biblical tradition, especially in the purification rituals described in Numbers 19. To be considered suitable for these ceremonies, the red heifer must be completely free from blemishes, have no more than two non-red hairs and must never have been used for labor. These strict requirements highlight an important biblical principle: offerings to God should be pure and without flaw.

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

As Rabbi Kirt Schneider explains in his book “Decoding the Torah,” “This command reflects the broader biblical principle that God deserves our best in everything. The requirement for animals to be without defect symbolizes the perfection required in offerings given to God, pointing to the holiness and purity that should characterize anything devoted to Him.” In other words, the need for an unblemished red heifer is about more than just its physical appearance—it represents God’s standard of holiness and the importance of giving Him our very best.



This careful selection process is still happening today. According to CBN News, as of Jan. 28, 2025, two of the five red heifers brought to Israel in 2022 have been disqualified because they developed non-red hairs. That leaves only three that still meet the biblical requirements.

What This Means for Christians

While the red heifer is part of Jewish tradition, the underlying principle applies to all who follow God—including Christians. In the New Testament, Jesus became the ultimate sacrifice, the Lamb without blemish (1 Peter 1:18-19). Because of His perfect sacrifice, Christians are no longer required to offer animals to God, but we are still called to give Him our very best in all that we do.

Romans 12:1 tells believers: “Offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.” This means that our lives—our time, talents, work and worship—should reflect the same devotion, purity, and excellence that God required in biblical sacrifices.
