Discerning the signs of the end times requires both wisdom and vigilance. For many prophecy teachers, artificial intelligence is more than just a technological breakthrough. It may be the very infrastructure that will enable the global system described in Revelation. Pastor Billy Crone recently warned that the launch of President Trump’s Stargate AI program could mark a prophetic turning point.

Crone explained that on his first day in office, Trump “launched the Stargate AI program. Stargate, the futuristic kind of label that’s put upon it. And then he introduced three entities, tech technology guys to run this system. And it was a $500 billion investment. That’s a half a trillion dollars to speed up the process, the development of AI, hence the Stargate AI system.”
The program is global in scope, with data centers being built around the world. Crone believes this effort has direct ties to prophecy. He cited Daniel 12:4, which says knowledge will increase, and argued that artificial intelligence fulfills that description. He also pointed to Revelation 13, which describes a world under the Antichrist’s control, where every transaction is monitored. According to Crone, such a system would not be possible without AI.

Crone said, “You can’t have Revelation 13 until the development of AI. It’s here now. You can’t have a seven-year tribulation without the Jewish people. They’ve been here since 1948. That’s why it’s such a huge moment.”
He cautioned believers not to treat AI itself as evil. Like the internet or money, it is a tool that can be used for good or evil. However, Crone urged discernment, explaining that AI will eventually be hijacked for the Antichrist’s global system.
Crone identified four major areas where the Stargate program connects with daily life:
- Enterprise: AI will reshape global business, streamlining industries while centralizing control.
- Big Brother: Surveillance capabilities will expand, creating the infrastructure for a system that monitors every action and transaction.
- Big Pharma: Integration with health and biotech sectors could push society toward greater dependence on technology for life and wellness.
- Bitcoin and crypto: The move toward digital currency is preparing the way for a cashless society that aligns with the mark of the beast system.
Crone called AI a watershed prophetic event comparable to Israel becoming a nation in 1948. Both, he said, unlock the fulfillment of end-times prophecy.
