Friday, April 5, 2013, Dave Hunt drew his final breath and entered into the presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. His beloved wife Ruth was at his side.

Born in 1926, David Charles Haddon Hunt enjoyed the advantages of a godly upbringing and placed his trust in Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and Lord in his early teens.

As a young man, he served in the military toward the end of World War II. Afterward, he attended UCLA and received a degree in mathematics. It was during that time that he met the love of his life, Ruth Klassen. In 1950, they were married, and since both loved the outdoors, they enjoyed a beautiful honeymoon hiking in the High Sierras—perfect for two young people madly in love and with very little money to their name. Marriage was soon followed by the birth of two sons and two daughters. Ruth was a busy mother and also a gifted writer herself. She had a tremendous interest in and knowledge of history, a gift that would help Dave further down the road. Dave’s own career path led him into a position as a CPA/management consultant and later as the manager of several corporations.

Along with church-related activities, Dave initiated and became involved in numerous campus ministries and meetings in their home, with a special outreach to Jewish young people and foreign students. Many of these have stayed in touch with Dave and Ruth through the years, fondly recalling their times spent in Bible studies at the Hunts’ house.

Dave and Ruth also traveled abroad, spending time in various locations throughout Europe, meeting with believers there and ministering in many ways while raising their own family. Dave also brought Bibles and other materials into the Soviet Union during a time when it was very difficult to do so. Throughout his later years, he and Ruth traveled extensively as he was invited to speak in churches and fellowships, large and small, all over the world. Often they stayed in people’s homes, dining with them, learning their customs, and sharing God’s Word and God’s love.

The desire of Dave’s heart was ultimately to be involved in fulltime ministry, especially since he saw firsthand everywhere he went the breaking down of the true church as the world began to work its way into her midst. He began to write in 1973, warning believers about the incursion into Western culture and into the church itself of Eastern religion, psychological and selfist philosophies, ecumenism, and other unbiblical teachings.

The ministry of The Berean Call was founded by Dave in 1992. It grew out of a previous organization, of which Dave was also a founding member since 1986. With T.A. McMahon working alongside him at The Berean Call, Dave was able to share his love for and defense of Christ in the subsequent newsletters, books, videos, and speaking engagements that resulted from this ministry. Dave and T.A. wrote three books together, including the best-known The Seduction of Christianity , which was groundbreaking in its boldness, exposing false teachings in the church and daring to identify the names of the ones behind the deception.

By the early 2000s, Dave’s love for Christ and his desire to defend the name of the Lord had grown even stronger, and his concern over Islamic politics and religion are reflected in many of his articles, lectures, books, and interviews.

Then Richard Dawkins and the “new atheists” came onto the scene with a vengeance, seeking to destroy the very concept of God in the minds of everyone. Dave began to write and teach and speak more passionately than ever about the absolute truth that is in the Word of God and our need to immerse ourselves in it daily in order to prevent being taken up in the evolutionist delusion that is sweeping the world.

One of Dave’s favorite activities was to see whom God would seat next to him on airplanes as he traveled and spoke. He often said that he “could prove the existence of God” just by these providential occurrences. While writing about Islam, he would end up seated next to a Muslim who didn’t really understand what Islam was about but was eager to hear the difference between the Bible and the Qur’an. When writing about creation vs. evolution, the Lord would bring him, as a seat companion, an atheistic scientist who thought he had all the answers and was very surprised that there was another verifiable explanation to this universe.

Dave’s bold yet loving approach to any situation allowed him entrance into these conversations where many others would have been shut out. His love for Jesus, for Israel, and for people in general was obvious to all. His enthusiasm for the truth, along with his anger over the sin and wickedness that he knew was robbing people of what God wanted for them, flamed his desire to share the Lord with anyone with whom he had contact.

At least 4 million copies of his books have been sold, many of them translated into more than 50 languages. They include: The Cult Explosion; The God Makers (with Ed Decker); The Seduction of Christianity (with T.A. McMahon); Global Peace and the Rise of Antichrist; Peace, Prosperity, and the Coming Holocaust; The New Spirituality (with T.A. McMahon); Whatever Happened to Heaven?; Occult Invasion; A Woman Rides the Beast; A Cup of Trembling; In Defense of the Faith; An Urgent Call to a Serious Faith ; To Russia with Love (with Hans Kristian); What Love Is This?; Countdown to the Second Coming; Seeking and Finding God; Honest Doubts; Judgment Day!: Islam, Israel, and the Nations; Yoga and the Body of Christ; and his final book, Cosmos, Creator, and Human Destiny.

He also wrote two novels, The Mind Invaders (formerly The Archon Conspiracy ) and Sanctuary of the Chosen, along with a children’s book called The Money Tree , illustrated by his daughter Karen.

This is by no means a complete listing of all of Dave’s works. One of his videos, Israel, Islam & Armageddon, has become a tremendous tool for churches and for anyone interested in helping to spread the truth about events prior to and since the attack on the World Trade Center. His video A Woman Rides the Beast is a favorite among those who are witnessing to Catholics, a group for whom Dave had a deep love and sorrow, desiring to see them come to the knowledge of the truth.

Dave Hunt’s own drive to find and then deliver the truth is evident in everything he did. His impeccable research and recognized scholarship were based on in-depth studies of original documents and publications, interviews with key experts from around the world, and extensive travel—including to South America, Australia, Europe, India, and throughout the Middle East.

Dave has left us a legacy of inestimable value. We are blessed to be able to see and hear and read what he has taught about the evidence for God in a breathtaking number of materials. From explaining about the history of Christianity, to exposing the deception that has crept into the church, to teaching about the prophecies that are being fulfilled even today, this humble, brilliant man will go on teaching us for a very long time. We look forward to the day when we will see him again. source – Berean Call

NTEB SUNDAY SERVICE: The Apostle Paul Commands Us To Follow Him And Shows Us How We Are To Think Of And Act Towards The Jews And Israel

The apostle Paul commands us to follow him and shows us how to think of the Jews and Israel according to God’s plan for them

There is a great confusion in American Christianity today, one that threatens to tear it self apart at the seams. Many professing Christians have no idea how God views the Jews and Israel, and no clue as to His redemptive plan for them. We who believe are called, commanded, to follow the apostle Paul as he follows Jesus. My message today will give you a good idea of what exactly that means, and the costs associated with answering that call. Preached live this morning at the Bible Believers Church inside the NTEB Bookstore. Services every Sunday morning starting at 11:00 AM in Palatka, Florida.

“Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.” I Corinthians 4:16 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: Be Ye Followers Together Of Me

Be Ye Followers Together Of Me

“I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.” Romans 9:1-5 (KJB)

“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.” Romans 10:1 (KJB)

“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.” Romans 11:25 (KJB)

“Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace; And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day. I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.” 1 Corinthians 4:11-17 (KJB)

Conspiracy Theory

Season 3 Of ’24’ With Counter-Terrorist Hero Jack Bauer Turns Out To Be A Treasure Trove Of Predictive Programming About Trump Twin Presidencies

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Season 3 of quarter-century old television hit ’24’ contains incredible predictive programming references to Donald Trump’s first and second terms

In the immediate aftermath of 9/11, a television show called ’24’ was launched, and in it main character Jack Bauer leads a counter-terrorism Federal agency called CTU to deal with evolving threats against the United States and its people. ’24’ debuted in the ashes of the fallen Twin Towers, before Facebook and social media, before smart phones and before streaming programming from Netflix and Hulu. In short, ’24’ is a dinosaur that’s now nearly a quarter-century old, and yet inexplicably contains stunning predictive programming that directly foreshadows Donald Trump’s first and second presidencies.

“Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” Isaiah 46:10 (KJB)

The first two seasons of ’24’ are pretty good, and here we are introduced to the iconic character of Jack Bauer played by Kiefer Sutherland, but it’s in Season 3 that our story today is centered around.

In Chinatown in Los Angeles, we see shadowy figures who have a biological weapon.
That weapon is called the Cordilla virus.
The Cordilla virus is released in the Chandler Plaza Hotel which is then put on lockdown.
The terrorist who has the virus in a phone call to CTU says he is doing it to ‘Make America Clean Again’.
Fictional president David Palmer is forced to do what the bioterrorists are making him do.

So let’s see if I have this right. A man-made Cordilla virus is released from Chinatown which triggers a lockdown and escalating body count. The fictional Chandler Plaza Hotel is an obvious reference to the Trump Plaza Hotel in New York City. It was in the first Trump presidency that we were subjected to the COVID virus released from a lab in China that put the world on lockdown, a lockdown initiated by Donald Trump. The man who is releasing the virus says he wants to ‘make America clean again’ in Day 3 between the hours of 7:00am – 8:00am. In April of this year, President Trump hosted the Make America Clean Again Gala at Mar-a-Lago. Oh, one more thing, throughout the entire season, fictional President Palmer is being forced to carry out the will of the bioterrorist who has the Cordilla virus. The president is not calling the shots, is not in charge, just like Trump is not calling the shots right now.

In 1991, David Rockefeller thanked the main stream media for attending his Bilderberg meetings he started with Henry Kissinger for 40 years and agreeing to conspire to never write about what they saw and heard. This is where predictive programming comes from. pic.twitter.com/cteI6NMT6I

Predictive Programming is an amazing thing, presenting you with ‘coincidences’ that are simply to amazing to believe, yet there they are. David Rockefeller back in 1991 thanked the main stream media for attending his Bilderberg meetings for 40 years, and for conspiring to never write about anything they saw or heard until the Deep State foundations could be put in place. Donald Trump in his second term is carrying out that agenda that has been in place since the aftermath of WWII. Everything we are watching now with Trump and the Epstein client list scandal has all been preplanned and prearranged.

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Could Weather Manipulation Companies Like Rainmaker Be Behind This Crazy Outbreak Of Flash Flooding This Year?

Published

July 10, 2025

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

What role do companies like Rainmaker and Microsoft play in the extreme weather and flash floods we’ve been experiencing this summer?

Recent flash floods in Kerrville, Texas; Ruidoso, New Mexico; Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and along the East Coast have made sensational headlines in recent days as tidal waves of roaring water has seemingly appeared out of nowhere. 115 so far are dead in Texas, untold number of deaths in North Carolina, 3 people died in Mexico. What role might chemtrails and cloud seeding play in all this? As it turns out, a lot, and that’s the memo.

“He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.” Psalm 105:32 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Augustus Doricko knew when he founded cloud-seeding start-up Rainmaker in 2023 that he’d have to contend with misunderstandings and conspiracy theories surrounding the technology. Still, he wasn’t quite prepared for the sheer volume of online fury he has faced in the wake of the catastrophic Texas floods that have killed more than 100 people and nearly twice that many missing. Doricko and his company, Rainmaker, have become a focal point of posts spiraling across social media that suggest the floods in Kerr County were a human-made disaster. An array of influencers, media personalities, elected officials and other prominent figures — including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) and former Trump adviser Michael Flynn — have publicly raised the possibility that cloud-seeding operations like Rainmaker’s might have caused or at least exacerbated the historic deluge. Is there any truth to all this? Today we take a deeper look into the weather, and the people lurking the shadows who insist on manipulating it for control and profit.
