I'm watching how governments and big corporations are restricting the Net. On the one hand, so long as there are nations with governments, there will be corporations trying to influence regulation to their advantage, and full freedom of the people is not to their advantage. On the other hand, as our civilization debauches and grinds to a halt, too much freedom means there are some things we won't miss. But you should know that this problem with the global Internet splintering into multiple nationalized internets will become a propaganda excuse to call for a global government.
We have been seeking to spread our faith for a few years now in the twilight of the wide open Internet. There are a lot of things pointing to this being just a passing situation, something we were called to do as a community, but now the mission is about to change. It won't be today or tomorrow, but slowly we will be redirected in other directions. We began as just a handful of outsiders building our own religion from scratch and clinging to the fringes. I am certain that pretty soon there will be a lot more folks driven out of the mainstream system.
I believe this is what we are being honed for, as Linda put it. Insofar as folks following our blogs and this forum have been faithful to our message, they should be ready for the umbilical cord to be cut. Whatever promises and miracles God has for us all are stored up for release in the coming days, and they can seize the opportunity or they can miss out. We've done about as much as we can do for them.
So here I am at the pinnacle of all the computer and Internet stuff I've been doing, and I know it's going to fade into the background. My fleshly self hardly knows what it will do next. My heart tells me that it will work itself out. My prophetic gift tells me it's a good time to remind folks that this is now camping on our doorstep. Yes, I know that our communion here will continue for quite some time, but the nature of our work will shift because the audience will change. The context will change, too.
