February 2026On January 4th, 2026, I preached my State of the Nation – State of the Church sermon. I addressed two matters in detail – a company named Palantir and Islam. You need to listen to the sermon, as it is packed with documentation.
You can see where to listen at the end of this article.
Palantir is a CIA-funded and backed software and data base provider. They provide the tools for expanding government surveillance of its citizens through artificial intelligence and facial recognition technologies. In a word, the company is helping governments build the ultimate police state — the ultimate surveillance state of all a nation’s citizens. The technology is similar to what is used in China.
Peter Theil is the founder of Palantir. Peter Thiel is an open sodomite, “married” to a man. He is in close relationship to J.D. Vance and Donald Trump. He gave Vance’s campaign for Senate 15 million dollars, and used his influence to see Vance get the Vice-presidency.
He is the same Peter Theil that Charlie Kirk always defended in order to normalize homosex to conservatives and Christians. [see my sermon TPUSA, Charlie Kirk, and Homosex: A Warning at youtube.com/watch?v=ttJGC-lIZv8].
Vance views Thiel as “possibly the smartest person” he ever met. Vance has also stated that Thiel’s Christian faith “defied the social template I had constructed.”
Thiel later became a “mentor” to Vance.
Thiel has given tens of millions to Vance and his Republican friends, including Trump. Thiel stands to make billions in government contracts from that investment.
And Trump is all on board to expand and establish the digital surveillance state. Since Trump became president for a second term he has written executive orders promoting Thiel’s objectives, and given Palantir massive federal contracts to develop the surveillance state in America.
Are you beginning to connect the dots? Vance – Trump – and Kirk – and they’re all connected to this open sodomite, Peter Thiel. And it’s all connected to money. They defend and protect him — they fawn over him — remember in my sermon about Kirk and TPUSA that it was Trump who brought Thiel to Mar-a-lago to celebrate the first-ever federal legislation that recognized homosex marriage that Biden had signed? Follow the dots. Follow the money.
Christians are stampeded into supporting TPUSA and the groups that affiliate with them — understand they all coalesce in order to enrich each other. Some of us who are older have lived through all this before — with the Moral Majority, then with the Christian Coalition, now TPUSA and their endless sycophants. They want you to believe there is a great revival, but there isn’t one.
Like vultures, the other conservative and Christian organizations and groups are circling the carcass of TPUSA. The vultures all come around to help the uptick on their mailing list and their bank accounts. Have nothing to do with it. Continue to be faithful to Christ. In simplistic service to Him.
Most Christians — and most of Christianity think they have a four-year reprieve because Trump was elected. They say it gives them four years to work to restore the nation. The truth is, the vast majority will never lift a finger to do anything other than send money to the pro-life and pro-family organizations — to the “conservatives” and “Christians” who are more than willing to take their money knowing all they do is nothing but a swan song which will not change anything substantive (but will fill their coffers with money).
By the way, the “swan song” is a metaphorical phrase for a final gesture, effort, or performance given just before death or retirement. The phrase refers to an ancient belief that swans sing a beautiful song just before their death.
You will NOT repair America by continuing to play the conservative/Christian playbook that has been followed for the last 50 years now.
Repentance is needed. Fear of God must replace the fear of man. Faithfulness to the Lord must trump following the machinations of worldly-wiseman regarding politics. Voting for the lesser of two evils when the lesser evil is openly impugning the law or Word of God must cease.
