Close Encounters of the Third Kind was a science fiction drama that burst onto the big screen in 1977, and it was a blockbuster hit for writer and director Steven Spielberg. For our younger audience, who may be unfamiliar with the film, the main character, played by Richard Dreyfuss, was an electrical lineman. Through a long series of events too complicated to relay at this time, he ends up having a close encounter with extra-terrestrial beings who descend in the mothership of a group of Unidentified Flying Objects (a UFOs). Spielberg followed up with an even bigger hit five years later -- E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. This science fiction flick tells the story of a boy named Elliott, who comes in contact with a stranded extrater-restrial that he names E.T. In the end Elliott helps E.T. find his way back home. Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. are, of course, sheer fiction created in the minds of writers, directors and filmmakers. But do you realize there was a real encounter with extra-terrestrials found in the pages of the Bible. On this Tomorrow’s World program, I’m going to go into the account of Ezekiel’s close encounter of the first kind, what the message was that was given to him, and what it’s significance is for you and me.

Many claim that science has removed the need for a Creator. After all, they say, we now know that the universe began in a sort of “Big Bang”--expanding in every direction we can see. We understand the structure of matter--why it behaves the way it does, and the laws that govern it all. Closer to home, we understand life itself, they say. It simply evolved from non-living matter, with chance combinations of chemicals, enduring over time as they were somehow more fit for survival and duplication until, billions of years later, you have a world of whales, giraffes, bald eagles, and, yes, even television hosts. Yet, when you look more closely, those claims fall apart. Because in every aspect of the world--if you are willing to seek out and to accept the evidence--you see the fingerprints of a Divine Creator. Join us for this episode of Tomorrow’s World, where we will discover how science reveals God’s Fingerprints.

There’s great emotion in the air. The organist is playing a sentimental hymn, people are looking upward, waving their arms with tears streaming down their cheeks. A blind man is escorted onto the stage by an attendant. The popular evangelist asks him how long he has been blind, and does he believe Jesus will heal him? He answers: From birth and yes, he believes. The evangelist then hits the poor man on the forehead while loudly commanding, “Be Healed!” The man falls backward in some kind of trance into the arms of an attendant, and when he awakes, he blinks a few times and shouts “Thank you Jesus – I can see.” And the crowd erupts in cries of “Praise the Lord.” Thinking people wonder: Was this real? Or was it a show contrived by well-rehearsed actors? This is an important question as there is reason to believe these supposed healings are, more often than not, deceptions played out on ignorant people. However, the Bible proclaims that God does supernaturally heal and we read of Jesus healing all manner of sickness and infirmities. Were these real, or was Jesus the first to exploit gullible people seeking relief from desperate physical circumstances? I’ll answer these questions on this Tomorrow’s World program.

On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched military strikes against Iran. Over 100 aircraft dropped bombs on strategic targets, and more than 850 Tomahawk missiles were launched from US Navy destroyers and submarines. Over forty top Iranian military commanders were killed in the opening attack, along with supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Iran’s response was immediate. Hundreds of missiles and thousands of drones were launched at targets throughout the region. The Strait of Hormuz was effectively closed, causing a shipping bottleneck that sent shockwaves in oil prices around the world. What’s behind the current conflict between Iran and the United States? Where does Iran fit in biblical prophecy? And how will it affect you and me? We’ll address these important questions today on Tomorrow’s World.

Gerald Weston - TVCA1414 - Consider that there are only 3 fundamental hypotheses for life existing on planet Earth. That life was transported to earth, evolved from non-living matter, or that life is the creation of an intelligent creator. Which is correct? Can you know?

We live in times of startling upheaval. The Middle East continues to be a source of global chaos and instability. Alliances are breaking and reshaping at blinding speed. The systems and institutions on which our modern civilization depends—economic, governmental, medical, scientific, educational—all continue to prove themselves unworthy of our trust, yet with no alternatives to replace them. News programs seem to carry a litany of tales of suffering—not only on the global scale, but also the intimate and personal. There has never been a time in human history when the entire world needed to pay more attention to Bible prophecy. Yet, many don’t. God has given us Bible prophecy for a REASON, and the times in which you and I are living, RIGHT NOW, make understanding those reasons more important than ever! Today, we want to make those reasons plain, and to equip you to do more than wonder about prophecy—we want you to understand it. So, join us right now on Tomorrow’s World, where we will help you “Understand Bible Prophecy!”

We live in a world of uncertainty and stress. Wars rage. Violence persists in our cities—even with the threat of terrorism. Jobs are uncertain. Money is tight. Health problems for some make daily living a challenge. The future sometimes looks bleak, with the prospect of one crisis after another. We can only wonder what the world will look like for our children or grandchildren. In this chaotic and sometimes confusing world, we ALL need more peace and tranquility. Even Christians are not immune from worrying about the future. Christ told His disciples “Let not your heart be troubled.” But frankly, Jesus also recognized the challenges His followers would face. He even said, referring to the last days, “When the Son of man returns, will He find faith on the earth?” What did He mean? And maybe more importantly, at least for each one of us, “Will He find faith in me?” We all want faith. We all need faith. But it seems that our world does everything it can to dismantle and erode our faith. We need to know how we can have the faith Christ was talking about. Especially leading up to His return. Faith is important. It’s vital. But most people frankly don’t really know what true faith is. And how to have stronger faith. Today, on Tomorrow’s World, we’ll look into the Scriptures to find out how. And by the way, we’re going to be offering you a free copy of “John 3:16 – Hidden Truths of the Golden Verse.” So, what are “Three Keys for Stronger Faith?”

Gerald Weston - TVCA1413 - In a previous program, we discussed the meaning of the 1st and 2nd horsemen of Revelation. Discover the true meaning of the two remaining horses and their riders. The black and pale horses reveal startling events that will occur in the near future!

We live on an amazing planet. Consider its diversity of terrain – mountains, valleys, plains and deserts, mighty rivers and babbling brooks. We have rain, fog, mist, snow and ice falling on our homes and heads. Mornings and evenings paint beautiful mosaics as the sun shines through the clouds. Consider the diversity of life, from earth worms to elephants. The waters hold an amazing variety of strange and beautiful creatures – each fulfilling a unique purpose. Some filter and clean the waters, others dazzle us with their beauty and strangeness, and some are food for other creatures. Then there is the flora – magnificent trees, eye-pleasing flowering shrubs. There is the spectrum of greens -- from dark to light. Flowers come in all colors of the rainbow and in mixed shades. We live on a planet suited for man. Yes, there are challenges we face that strengthen us, but there are the joys of eating with family and friends from the limitless variety of foods of every texture and taste. When was the last time you put down your smart phone or turned off the television and asked: Is there a purpose for life? And if so, what is it? Am I merely the product of blind evolutionary forces? If so, how can there be meaning? And how can there be life beyond the grave? Simply put, why are you here?

Greenland. An American territory? That was the idea proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Of course it made headlines around the world. It even sparked a few humorous videos on social media… because the prospect of America taking Greenland just seemed preposterous. But it also caused serious discussions among European leaders. It even led to a small contingent of military personnel being SENT to Greenland, involving Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, and the UK. (“European military personnel arrive in Greenland as Trump says US needs island,” BBC, January 15, 2026). The United States has maintained a small base in Greenland for many years. It currently stations about 150 soldiers there. But what President Trump was proposing was not just having a military installation there, but making Greenland American territory. The diplomatic row subsided in a few weeks. But for some, the controversy was yet another signal that the relationship between the United States and Europe is fracturing. And it’s hard to deny that.. What does the future hold for the United States and their allies in Europe? Is the decades-long status quo over? And IF it is changing, why?
