“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” -2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV)For years, a corner of prophecy media has run on the same recurring promise: the collapse is coming, and this time the date is real. The dollar is about to fail. The banks are about to lock. Buy gold before it’s too late. And for years, the date has quietly moved every time it fails to arrive.In this episode, we look honestly at what’s actually true — the national debt really is approaching a staggering figure — and what’s been sensationalized for clicks and subscriptions. We walk through the practical case against “gold as your emergency plan,” including a firsthand look at what real currency collapse looked like in Argentina’s corralito, and why that scenario would look nothing like a quiet inconvenience if it ever happened here.But the heart of this episode is Scripture’s answer to financial fear. From Deuteronomy’s test for a false prophet, to Jesus’ own words that no one knows the day or the hour, to Paul’s charge to be anxious for nothing — the Bible consistently calls believers toward diligent, faithful stewardship instead of manufactured panic. Not naive. Not reckless. Just faithful, one day at a time, regardless of whose prediction is trending this month.Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.-------------------------------------------(Everything here is free and always will be.If it’s meant something to you, help keep it that way)KEEP IT FREE!Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

There’s a lie floating around Christian culture that faithfulness means picking one lane and staying in it forever. Today’s guest is proof that’s never been true. He spent seven years flying combat missions over three continents, then two decades as an FBI agent chasing down high profile crime in this country, then years teaching the next generation how to spot deception for a living. On paper, that’s already a full life.But it wasn’t finished. He walked away from all of it to protect missionaries in the jungles of Papua New Guinea, then came home and built a cold case homicide unit from scratch as a deputy in the Sheriffs office — because some families are still waiting for answers nobody else was willing to chase down.One man. Five uniforms. One calling underneath all of them. This conversation will show you exactly what that looks like — and it might reframe what you think your own calling is supposed to look like too.Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

I’ve been doing a liver cleanse with my wife for the past month or so. All it really entails is no sugar, no white flour, nothing fried. One glass of lemon water first thing in the morning, followed by a raw blended juice of carrots, celery and parsley. That’s it! Yet it got me thinking about every fad diet people chase and abandon: keto, Atkins, paleo, etc. Sure, fast results but then you gain it all back, sometimes twice over. The fad never holds. And somewhere in my own kitchen, craving the very thing I know is killing me, it hit me — we do the exact same thing with our faith.Prosperity gospel. Word of Faith. The new apostles. The endless prophecy clickbait. They’ve become spiritual junk food — a quick high that leaves you starving and jumping to the next thing, worse off than when you started.This week’s broadcast is about the one diet nobody can sell you, because there’s no shortcut to advertise: the slow, steady, unglamorous meal of the Word and prayer. It’s true sustenance, not a quick high. And it’s the only thing that lasts!Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

-250 years of God-given liberty — and why, for the believer, our greatest chapter is still ahead.NOTE: The audio might not sound too good because this was a pop-up live I did at around 11:00pm on July 3rd. Kind of sounds like an old radio show! Blessings!Two hundred and fifty years ago, fifty-six men pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor on a firm reliance on divine Providence. This nation was built on the conviction that our rights come from God — not from kings, not from congresses, not from majorities. That foundation is worth honoring, and on this Fourth of July, we do. But honoring the past is not the same as living in it. In this broadcast, we trace the Judeo-Christian bedrock of the American founding, hear what Adams and Tocqueville understood about liberty that we’ve grown soft on, and name a quiet danger that has crept into the believing church: nostalgia.Because here’s the truth — as much as I love this country, America was never our hope. Nations rise and nations fall, but the Kingdom that has no end belongs to Jesus Christ. When we spend all our energy staring into the rearview mirror, longing for a golden age, we do the very thing Scripture warns against. Lot’s wife looked back. Israel looked back. We are called to look forward — to the blessed hope, the return of our King, and a future so glorious that our best chapter hasn’t even been written yet. So light the fireworks. Thank God for 250 years. But don’t you dare get stuck looking back. Stand firm, and stay salty.Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

-How The Numbers Became The Currency In The ChurchThe church has a banking problem. Not with money in the offering plate — with people. We’ve started investing in platforms instead of character, booking the big accounts instead of the faithful ones, and quietly teaching a generation of kids that the number under your name is what makes you worth following. I call it social media banking. And it’s costing us more than we know.Because here’s what the kids actually learn when we put the famous over the faithful: that being known and being godly are the same thing. They’re not. They never were. The cure isn’t a better influencer — it’s the one influence that never falls, never gets cancelled, and never fails. Turn the feed off. Open the Book. That’s the whole prescription, and it’s available to every one of us, no following required.Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

Spielberg’s “Disclosure Day” and the Masterpiece of DeceptionThis week a YouTube ad stopped me cold. Steven Spielberg’s new film, Disclosure Day, is built around a single premise: the day the whole world is finally “shown” that we are not alone—and it’s releasing into the exact season real “disclosure” is being staged in our headlines and our hearing rooms. In this broadcast I make the case that this isn’t entertainment. It’s preparation—a narrative being seeded to explain away the disappearance of millions, to sell demonic possession as alien contact, and to offer a counterfeit unity that bypasses the cross.But the answer isn’t fear—it’s discernment. We walk through Matthew 24, the rapture, the counterfeit of the Holy Spirit, and the strong delusion of the last days, and why the blood-bought, Word-anchored believer has nothing to fear and everything to watch for. They’re not aliens. And we were never abducted—we were caught-up to be with our Lord!Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

I had the privilege of speaking at the 2026 End of Days Bible Prophecy Conference at Cornerstone Bible Church of Lake Stevens in Washington this year. It was such a wonderful time of fellowship and encouragment! The subject was Daniel's Seventieth Week (aka: “7-Year Tribulation) — but instead of charts and timelines, I wanted to take a different approach and ask a different question: what does this period reveal about the character of God? This is a beautiful portrait of a God who is faithful, sovereign, just, merciful, and redemptive. The same God then. The same now and the same God when…it happens!I hope you’re blessed, encouraged and challenged.Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

This is the audio version of my article, The Church Is Not the Solution If It's Part of the Problem.In it, I talk about the division inside the body of Christ and how that division weakens our witness to the world around us. America is divided, yes. The culture is divided. But the deeper issue is spiritual — and the church has to be willing to face its own condition honestly.This is not a call to compromise truth. It is a call to humility, repentance, and a return to Christ.Grateful you’re here.— Pablo------------------------------------------Subscribe to receive future broadcasts and articles at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.serpentsndoves.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-------------------------------------------Share.Forward this post, repost it, or pass it along to someone who might need it.Support.This broadcast is listener-supported.

What if the ten kings of Revelation aren’t who we’ve always assumed? What if they don’t wear suits and sit in parliaments — but instead control your data, your energy, your communication, and soon, your ability to exist in a digital world at all?I was recently invited on as a guest on Prophetic Outlook, and what started as a conversation about a little-known US bill turned into one of the most wide-ranging discussions I’ve had in a while. We covered the surveillance infrastructure being built right now, the tech titans funding it, the digital ID rollouts already live in Europe — and where Scripture tells us it’s all heading. The pieces are on the board. The question is whether we’re paying attention.We got into:HR8250 — the US bill that would require age verification not just for apps or websites, but for your phone and devices at the operating system levelThe PayPal Mafia — Musk, Thiel, Ellison and others, and why they may fit the biblical profile of the ten kings better than any politicianThe post-rapture world — why no government has a contingency plan for billions of people disappearing overnight, and what that chaos unlocksGeorge Bernard Shaw and the Fabian Society — a chilling 60-second clip that sounds less like 1920s socialism and more like where things are headedThe mark of the beast — what the Bible actually says (and doesn’t say) and why AI and quantum computing are the control grid, not necessarily the mark itselfHit play.
