(Created page with "= The Path Obscured = In a sprawling city shadowed by towering skyscrapers and glowing billboards, Caleb Marsh lived a life that seemed mundane yet quietly defiant. A man of deep Christian faith, Caleb worked as a mechanic, his days filled with the hum of machines and the smell of oil.

Soon, a leader emerged, heavily supported by global entities and media conglomerates. He promised unity and prosperity, creating a centralized global government. Caleb watched in disbelief as governments pledged allegiance to this figure, who enforced mandatory identification marks for economic transactions. The media praised his policies as revolutionary, hailing him as a savior of humanity.

As Caleb delved deeper into the leader’s rise, he uncovered chilling truths about the transhumanist ideology driving global powers. The leader’s inner circle, comprised of scientists and technocrats, spoke openly of humanity’s “next evolution.” Inoculations were mandated worldwide, touted as solutions to diseases and physical limitations, but whispers surfaced of their darker purpose. These treatments began altering recipients’ DNA, integrating synthetic biology to “enhance” the human race. Caleb’s heart sank as he realized their goal: to redefine humanity itself, severing the God-given essence that made humans in His image. | |||
This transhumanist religion promised eternal life through technology. The elite worked tirelessly to perfect consciousness uploading, seeking to escape mortality by merging minds with machines. Caleb saw through their promises of immortality, recognizing the deception in their quest to “cheat death.” Scripture warned of such hubris: “Ye shall not surely die” (Genesis 3:4), the ancient lie repackaged for a modern audience. | |||
Refusing compliance, Caleb and his community fled to the wilderness. They lived off the land, resisting capture by authorities who branded them “insurrectionists” and “domestic threats.” The Tribulation had begun. Plagues swept the earth, corrupt leaders fell, and natural disasters ravaged cities.

Yet, amidst despair, Caleb’s faith endured. | Refusing compliance, Caleb and his community fled to the wilderness.
