The Vatican, Versace and Vogue are joining forces to show off the Roman Catholic influences in fashion.

“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” Revelation 17:4,5 (KJV)

Yahoo News reports that the Vatican’s culture minister joined Donatella Versace and Vogue’s Anna Wintour on Monday to offer sneak peek of ‘gorgeous Vatican liturgical vestments, jeweled miters and historic papal tiaras’ that will star in a spring exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination” opens May 10 and represents the most extensive exhibit of the museum’s Costume Institute, officials said. It also represents the first time some of the Vatican’s most precious treasures from the Sistine Chapel sacristy are being exhibited outside the Vatican.

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4 (KJV)

When we read the Bible’s very graphic depiction of the Whore of Babylon in Revelation 17 and 18, there can be no doubt to whom John is referring to. Before becoming born again 27 years ago, I had spent nearly 3 decades in the Catholic Church. I knew all too well of the pomp, pageantry and unbelievable wealth of the Vatican system. Every classroom had a photo of the  pope, in his glittering finery and shiny fish hat, and we were taught that he was to be to us as God.

When this exhibition of Vatican wealth opens on May 10, the world will get a rare chance to really see how much the Catholic Church lines up with Revelation 17 and 18. You will see diamond and jewel-encrusted tiaras, like a beauty queen would wear, only these are made for popes. They are solid gold and covered with diamonds, rubies and all manner of precious gems.

Can you picture the apostle Paul wearing this gaudy, glitzy beehive of a monstrosity on his head? I think Paul would smash it with a hammer and then spend the next 4 hours preaching against it.

Jesus of Nazareth was a humble carpenter as well as the Son of God, and He chose to live His life without earthly wealth as an ensample to those who would follow Him. None of the apostles accumulated wealth unto themselves, again, as an ensample to all those who would be a part of the Church and the Body of Christ. The early Christian Church lived to share the gospel, and did it under the persecution of the Roman government.

For nearly 3 centuries, Rome did its very best to wipe out Christianity, but was unsuccessful. Even feeding Christians to the lions as sport for the Roman government failed to slow the growth of the Church Jesus shed His blood for.

WHY THERE WILL NEVER BE RECONCILIATION BETWEEN THE ROMAN CATHOLIC SYSTEM AND THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH

But that all changed in 325 AD when Constantine, after seeing a vision of an Egyptian cross in the sky, decided that he has been appointed to take over the Christian Church, and declared Christianity to the official ‘state religion’ of Rome. In the corporate world, this is known as a hostile takeover. Christians went from hiding in caves to stay alive, to being given power and wealth from the Roman harlot. The real Christian Church was swallowed up whole, and not seen again for 1,200 years later. We used to call that time the Dark Ages.

This is where the Catholic Church and the Vatican began.

So when you see the Vatican fashion show, bragging for all the world to see how wealthy they are, and are showing you the very same garments and finery mentioned in Revelation 17, let there be no doubt in your mind who exactly they are and what exactly they stand for.

This is how the Bible says the Vatican and the Catholic Church will wind up at the Second Coming:

“And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!” Revelation 18:1,2, 16-18 (KJV)

Donald Trump Becomes The 47th President Of The United States In Stunning Victory As Americans Unite Across Race And Gender Lines To Sweep Him In

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

It’s a long way from November 5th 2024 to January 20th 2025, and absolutely anything could happen to president-elect Donald Trump between now and then. Stay awake, Christian.

One of the most amazing aspects of Donald Trump’s amazing victory this evening was the number of blacks, Hispanics, Asians, young people and women who crossed race, gender and party lines to come out and vote for Donald Trump. Americans said tonight, by giving Trump a solid mandate, that the country wants to throw off the shackles of the dark and dystopian Pandemic days, and move forward. That’s the good news. But today is Day 1,696 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve, and we’ve just re-elected the man who started it all. What happens now? That’s the question, and that’s the memo.

“Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.” Daniel 2:20-22 (KJB)

Donald Trump is riding quite high right now, and there is joyous celebration across the Republican Party, and rightly so. Tonight the GOP won it all, the House, the Senate, the White House and the popular vote. A complete across the board sweep. But Donald Trump is a man whom the Deep State has hounded relentlessly for the past 8 years, first trying to discredit him with the Russian Collusion Hoax, then trying to bankrupt him with lawfare judgments, and then tried to assassinate him with a shot to the side of his head. There is no reason to believe the attacks on him will stop now that he has just won this election. It’s a long way from November 5th 2024 to January 20th 2025, and absolutely anything could happen. Will the Liberals who hate him with a never-ending and all-consuming hatred accept what happened tonight, or will the streets be filled with rioting and looting in protest? We will soon know that answer.

It would be ignorance to say that, while Donald Trump has secured the victory, that his many enemies are simply going to go away quietly. They’re not. In fact, I think the attacks, plans and schemes launched against him are only going to increase. Because why wouldn’t they? I have voted for Trump three times now, and I hope, and I pray the next 4 years will be a wonderfully prosperous, safe and secure time for America, but if the past is any indicator of the future, it’s going to be rocky road. But at least one night, for this amazing moment in time, let us thank the LORD who removes kings and sets up kings, for giving us this victory this evening. Pray for President-elect Donald Trump’s safety, he’s going to need it.

Donald Trump spoke to supporters early Wednesday morning after Fox News projected him to win the 2024 presidential race.

NTEB RADIO BIBLE STUDY: An Election Night Look Into Some Of The Righteous Kings And Wicked Rulers As Found In Your King James Bible

Here on Election Night in America, we take a look at some of the righteous kings and wicked rulers as found in the pages of your King James Bible

Right now here in America, the people are voting as the nation holds its collective breath to see who becomes the next president of these United States. Social media is literally on fire with clips and comments as results are starting to trickle in. So what better topic could we possibly have than a Bible study on some of the righteous kings and wicked rulers we read about in both the Old and New Testaments. And in doing so, get a glimpse of what the future might hold for us here in 2024 with whoever our new ruler will be.

“Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.” Daniel 2:20-22 (KJB)

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, have you ever wondered what it would look like if you had a political ruler who did what God asked him to do? What it might look like to be a righteous king who ruled His people in perfect holiness with perfect justice? We will have that at the Second Advent when King Jesus sets up his Thousand Year Reign, but until then, “desolations are determined”. There were some kings in the Bible who ruled well over the people, not perfectly, but well. King David was a wonderful type of Christ in many ways, as ways Moses and Joshua. They were all but men, however, and had their moments of rebuke and correction from the LORD. We also see wicked rulers like King Saul, a type of Antichrist, and King Nebuchadnezzar, also a type of Antichrist. Through all these men, we see the rock-steady Hand of God orchestrating it all. Join us tonight for a fascinating look at righteous kings and wicked rulers in your King James Bible!

  • I  thanked God for sending to your website in 2015 , I  live in the South of France near Nice and let me tell you here there isn’t any Bible Believing church at all, the sad reality of France is that is full of freemasons and Muslims. You came to me at the time I  was going to take my own life because of my job. You’re anointed person and I pray for you, family  and  ministry because you’re a blessing to all of us. May God bless you always. I know I’ll meet you in heaven one day. Lots of Love from your sister in Christ, Paula.
  • “Hi Geoffrey and staff, Today is my one year anniversary that I got saved on your podcast!  I am now a KJB only, I threw away my other two versions I had.  I was shocked to learn of the differences and how the new versions twist the words of God, and dilute the message at best. Thank you for the fabulous bible  education and fire for the Lord.  I donate on your website throughout the year.  Thanks for all that you do.” Donna
  • “I have been reading on NTEB for about 5 years and listening as I can to your services.  If I could list the encouragement, the doctrines, the awareness of what is coming (our blessed hope) but also the last days culture in which I live that you have taught me, this email wouldn’t fit in this letter. Because of you, I am a stronger more equipped soldier for Jesus Christ. Thank you sir for you, your ministry in my life. Faithful to the end because He lives in me.” Ruthie Dennis
  • “My name is Carl N from Mumbai, India. My wife Andrea and I have been ardent listeners of your Bible Study and news update podcasts from the very start of the lockdown last year. In fact we make it a point to share these links with our family and friends… many times getting into trouble, as the truth upsets people. We cannot even begin to tell you how this has changed our lives and walk with the Lord. Thank you so much for what you’ve been doing for the Kingdom!! We’ve even switched Bible translations to the KJV. For the last month or so, you’ve been speaking about making end times Bible study materials available. This got us really excited, as we’re eager to use these for our weekly house church group.” Carl N – Mumbai, India
  • “I listen to your podcasts often. Very enlightening and I’ve learned a lot. I’m Catholic and followed the Holy Bible throughout my life however, since listening to your podcasts, I’ve learned much more. I recently sent NTEB a small donation. I’d like to do so again in the future. I’ve also signed up for NTEB chatroom. Anyways, I have a downloaded version of KJB on my computer and I follow your Bible Study with my pdf version KJB. You have offered to send out printed version of KJB if requested. If not too much trouble, when you or your staff get the opportunity please send me a copy.” Kevin W – Frankfurt, Germany
  • Just wanted to let you know that your ministry is producing fruit. After listening to the studies and church on NTEB, I was motivated to write witness letters along with NTEB gospel tracks to friends from my hometown who I know are not saved. I sent two of the letters to former Catholic priests of mine….I attached the response from him urging me to read the book “Prove It!.” My wife and I have been placing your gospel tracks in different places we visit. This coming Sunday, I am hosting my first Bible study in my house with some people in our neighborhood. Tomorrow evening I have been given a chance to teach the lesson to our youth church group (our church is very Laodicean), and I am going to talk to the youth on end times. Thank you so much for your ministry and encouraging us to get something done for Jesus while we still can! Thomas B 
  • “The sole purpose of this email to you is to let you know how much we have been blessed by your amazing ministry/website. ‘We’ is my wife and I, in our early forties, 3 kids, professing, churchgoing, bible believing Christians in The Netherlands.  Since two months, I listen to your bible studies on Sunday evening, and since this week also to your prophecy podcast. I listen to them in the archives, because of the 6 hour time difference. The shofar and the blessing at 0:30 into the study never fails to make tears in my eyes. We are praying for you, we are praying for your voice, that it lasts in these incredible busy times for you. Listening to your podcasts, you seem to do it effortlessly, talking, scanning the chatbox for questions, diving into the texts, from Genesis to Revelation and everything in between, I love it when you realize after 1:30h into the study, actually a lot more subjects need to be addressed! Thank you for all your work and effort, you are doing an amazing job. Although it all seems effortlessly, I know it is not…Our faith is strengthened by your work and we are able to testify in a better way to the people around us!” Wouter D. van der Wiel – Netherlands
  • “Wanted to send you encouragement and thank you for all you are doing!! I’ve been reading from this website for about 5 years and I’ve been on this at least 10 times a day. It’s the most honest prophecy website in history. And you have ministered to me greatly. This lockdown has been amazing as God gets us unto himself and smooths out the paths for us. I was reading devotional from Kenneth Copeland and during that time you had really hit That ministries hard. I was not Word Faith but I was feeding off his teaching. During this time I have removed Kenneth Copeland I wanted to thank you for your exposure of his ministry. Holy Spirit is truly the leader of all truths. The bible study on Bill Gates was tremendous. And I had the same check in my spirit as you did. He’s the guy that gonna lead this one world revolution Amazing times we live in. I’m super excited and living in total victory and peace. Once again thank you for the time you put in your reward in heaven will truly be great. Looking forward to this coming week. My prayer tonight is this …Father send Your Son!! DG
  • Thank you oh so much for sound teaching. I am so thankful and blessed for clicking on your channel. I have been on your Facebook page since 2011 and never subscribed to you-tube channel until today. I loved the live recording of singing, what a delight to hear the joy of the Lord in the voices of the congregation. So wonderful to hear the part about Luke 12:36, that has made my eyebrows furrow when I read and therefore I have always steadfast to not leaning on my own understanding. May God continue to bless you, your family friends and loved ones. All Glory be to Jesus, my Saviour Redeemer and King, Amen.” Susan Anderson
  • Loved this teaching! Presented in a clear contextual manner that was easy to follow along. You connected the dots for me that had previously brought so much confusion, namely the 4th seal covenant, the 5th seal tribulation saints, and the 6th seal 2nd Coming of Christ AFTER the wedding of the Body/Bride of Christ IN HEAVEN. Wow, after 41 years since my being born again by the Holy Spirit in to the Body of Christ, I finally have the answers to end the confusion. What joy and peace has flooded my heart! Thank you for this encouraging teaching of the Word.” SB
  • “I am from Sri Lanka and listen to the radio Bible study every week.” Nihal Perera

Nothing thrills my soul like teaching the word of God, it is what the Lord called me to do 29 years ago, and Now The End Begins is the vehicle in which I am able to do it. How exciting it is to be able to teach the Bible to tens of thousands of people per year. Like I told you with the first post of 2020, I have dedicated myself now full-time to NTEB, and it is only through your generous support that such a thing is possible.

I have many lost family who don’t want the truth, including my husband & son. I’ve been banned from seeing my grandsons since I comforted the 4 1/2 year old with sharing Jesus loving the little children & telling him about the one who created him last he stayed overnight March 3rd. He was so excited to hear about Jesus! His dad (my son) was angry that I told him & wants me to apologize. I never will do so. If my own family won’t hear, I know there’s others searching for the truth. My heart grieves for all the lost who will spend eternity in hell if they reject the Lord Jesus Christ, the expectant hope of the world. He is not willing that any should perish. God bless your ministry, Geoffrey! (I continue to pass out your tracts & you’re on my prayer list!)” LouAnn Benham

In Anticipation Of A Trump Win Today, High-Tech Metal Security Fences Go Up Around Washington DC To Protect Against Looting And Rioting From Democrats

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Washington DC is gearing up for potential chaos following Election Day as authorities assembled barriers around government buildings – including the vice president’s residence – and business owners boarded up storefronts over the weekend.

Remember back in 2016 when Donald Trump, against all odds, win the presidential election against the mainstream media champion Hillary Clinton? Remember all the riots, lootings, burnings and protests that took place at the hands of disgruntled Democrats? Well, the vibe on the street is that Donald Trump is the likely winner in today’s election, and metal security fences and plywood barricades are going up as you read this to protect against the expected Liberal assaults.

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9 (KJB)

Anything could happen today, only the LORD knows how it’s all going to shake out, and when it’s all over we could easily have Kamala Harris as president as we could Donald Trump, but it feels like Trump will be the winner. The Deep State and the mainstream media have spent billions in positive articles, stories, videos and campaign coverage to make you want to vote for Kamala, just like they did for Hillary 8 years ago. All of that done in an attempt to disguise the deep dislike and distrust that the average America has of Kamala Harris. If you haven’t voted yet, get out there and do it, and when you do, vote for the kind of America you want to live in. If you want a lot of abortion, vote Kamala, if you want a lot less abortion, vote Trump. If you want high prices, vote Kamala, if you remember the former prosperity, vote Trump. If you enjoyed watching the disastrous and deadly pullout from Afghanistan, vote Kamala, if you enjoyed no wars from 2016 to 2020, vote Trump. The differences could not be clearer, so vote for the kind of America you want to live in.

Washington DC gears up for possible election chaos with metal fencing around VP’s home and business boarded up

FROM THE NY POST: The series of security measures come on the eve of the high-stakes presidential race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris — which has exposed deep divisions and heightened tensions in the US.

The Secret Service placed 8-foot-high metal fences around the White House, and Harris’ home at the Naval Observatory though officials warned there are no specific threats of violence at this time, the Washington Post reported. The metal fencing was also around the Treasury Department complex and adjacent parts of Lafayette Square while the Capitol had temporary bike-rack barriers around its perimeter, according to the newspaper.

“The Secret Service is working closely with federal, state and local partners in Washington, DC and Palm Beach County, Florida to ensure heightened levels of Election Day safety and security,” the agency told the Washington Post Sunday.

“These enhancements are not in response to any specific issue but are part of wide ranging public safety preparations for Tuesday’s election.”

Private business and property owners have also worked to board up street-level windows and entrances in the event violence erupts in DC. Eric J. Jones, of the Apartment and Office Building Association of Metropolitan Washington, told the publication that retailers are concerned about looting and damage.

“We’re not expecting full-fledged pandemonium like we saw after Jan. 6, 2021, or four years ago,” he said.

“I’m getting constant emails and text messages because people are really engaged. … People would rather be overprepared and have nothing happen, as opposed to the alternative,” said Jones, who is the association’s vice president of government affairs.

Admiral Security Services is expected to have 2,000 private security guards work 12-hour shifts at properties around the city, its executive vice president Leon Beresford told the Washington Post.

The growing apprehension comes four years after the Jan. 6 riot on the Capitol and May 2020 protests over George Floyd’s murder that spiraled into violence. Mayhem also erupted before and after Trump’s 2017 inauguration where protesters smashed downtown windows and clashed with police. Government buildings were also guarded with security fencing leading up to the 2020 presidential election.

In addition to the newly installed fencing, DC police announced that starting Monday at 7 p.m. there will be street closures and parking restrictions in anticipation of Harris’ election night party on Howard University’s campus. All of the city’s available 3,300 police officers are reportedly expected to work 12-hour shifts through the election. READ MORE
