For decades, many Bible prophecy teachers have looked to Russia as the central player in the coming war described in Ezekiel 38 and 39. But have we been looking in the wrong direction?

In this episode of What’s the World Coming To?, Pastor Ken Ortiz takes a closer look at the nations named in Ezekiel’s prophecy and makes the case that modern-day Turkey may be far more significant than many Christians realize.

From Turkey’s growing military strength and President Erdoğan’s ambitions to its relationships with Iran, Libya, Sudan, and the broader Muslim world, Pastor Ken examines how today’s rapidly changing Middle East could align with the ancient prophecy of Gog and Magog.

Is Turkey the key to understanding Ezekiel 38? And are we beginning to see the pieces of this prophetic alliance taking shape?

Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the world, but could it also change what people worship?

Pastor Ken explores the rise of AI, transhumanism, digital surveillance, and the growing movement toward what some have called “techno-religion.” As technology promises greater intelligence, longer life, and even the possibility of overcoming human limitations, are we witnessing the beginnings of something Scripture warned about long ago?

In this episode, Pastor Ken examines AI through the lens of biblical prophecy and asks what role this technology could play in the centralized global system described in Revelation.

Technology may be able to upgrade our capabilities, but it cannot save the human soul.

The world is rapidly moving toward digital money, tokenized transactions, biometric identification, and interconnected financial systems. But could these developments have greater prophetic significance?

Pastor Ken Ortize looks at the rise of the cashless economy and considers how the infrastructure being built today could eventually enable the kind of economic control described in Revelation 13, where participation in the financial system is tied to the mark of the beast.

Are we watching the pieces of that system being assembled before our eyes?

What happens when our ideology begins shaping how we read the Bible instead of allowing the Bible to shape what we believe?

In this episode of What’s the World Coming To?, Pastor Ken Ortize examines the rise of “woke Christianity,” progressive theology, Christian nationalism, and the growing influence of what he calls “micro-tribe Christianity.”

Social media has made it easier than ever to surround ourselves with voices that reinforce what we already believe. But when politics, personal experience, cultural movements, or group identity become the lens through which we interpret Scripture, Christianity can quickly become something built in our own image.

The question every Christian must ask is simple: Does Scripture judge my ideology, or does my ideology judge Scripture?

Pastor Ken explores why biblical discernment matters more than ever and why our ultimate allegiance must remain with Jesus Christ and the truth of His Word.

In this special episode, Pastor Ken Ortize sits down with Pastor JD Farag of Calvary Chapel Kaneohe for a candid conversation about Bible prophecy, biblical illiteracy, the condition of the church, and whether Christians are truly prepared for the days ahead.

They discuss the dangers of prophecy sensationalism, the growing influence of culture within the church, the New Apostolic Reformation, persecution, financial security, and why believers must return to the Word of God.

Through it all, the conversation ultimately points back to what matters most: Jesus Christ. Because it’s possible to know Bible prophecy without truly knowing Him.

The Chosen has become one of the most popular Christian television series in the world, praised by many for making Jesus and the Gospel feel more relatable. But does making the Bible more relatable come at the cost of biblical accuracy?

In this episode of What’s the World Coming To?, Pastor Ken Ortize takes a critical look at The Chosen and raises concerns about its extensive use of invented dialogue, fictional backstories, altered timelines, and extra-biblical material.

When Scripture is silent, how much creative license should we take? Can a dramatized version of Jesus begin to shape our understanding of Him more than the biblical text itself?

Pastor Ken explains why he believes Christians should approach biblical entertainment carefully and why, when it comes to knowing Jesus, the book is still better than the movie.
