JUST DESSERTS: Oregon Official Who Shut Down Christian Bakers ‘Sweet Cakes By Melissa’ For Refusing To Make An LGBTQP Wedding Cake Loses Election
Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian who drove Christian baker ‘Sweet Cakes by Melissa’ out of business was defeated in bid for election.
Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian, who came to national attention for heftily fining a local Christian baker who refused to make a gay wedding cake for a lesbian couple, lost his election bid for Secretary of State.
Ah, how sweet it is, truly. Remember at the height of the Obama years, all the incredible persecution against and the discrimination of Christians who refused to be bullied by the LGBTQ+P for pedophile Mafia? It was painful watching 3% of the country hold 97% of the country hostage to their radical agenda. Then Donald Trump became president and everything started to change.
“Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” Romans 12:19 (KJV)
In May of 2014, Christian baker Jack Phillips was ordered by the Colorado’s Civil Rights Commission to make same-sex wedding cakes. He refused. In June of 2018, the Supreme Court of the United States, in a 7-2 decision, faulted the Colorado Civil Rights Commission’s handling of the claims brought against Jack Phillips, saying it had showed a hostility to religion. In doing so, the commission violated his religious rights under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Yay!
And now today we read that the anti-Christian Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian, who drove Christian baker ‘Sweet Cakes by Melissa’ out of business, was soundly defeated by his Republican challenger Dennis Richardson, for the office of Oregon Secretary of State. Republicans have not won in that state since 2002. Well, imagine that. This calls for some cake!
Oregon official who shut down Christian bakery loses election
FROM CNN: Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian, a champion of the LGBTQ community, was running for Secretary of State. As labor commissioner since 2008, Avakian often made news for his tough calls against businesses discriminating against gay and transgender customers.
The most noteworthy was when Sweet Cakes by Melissa refused to make the wedding cake for the same-sex couple in 2013, citing the owners’ religious beliefs. Shop owners Melissa and Aaron Klein were ordered to pay $135,000 in emotional damages. They were also told they couldn’t refuse customers based on sexual orientation.
Melissa Klein claimed the ruling stripped the couple of their First Amendment rights. “According to the state of Oregon we neither have freedom of religion or freedom of speech,” she said in a Facebook post at the time.
“Sweet Cakes by Melissa” eventually shut down completely, though their Facebook page remains active. Avakian was also responsible for slamming a $400,000 fine on a Portland bar owner who refused service to transgender customers, according to the Oregon Live.
In his bid for Secretary of State, Avakian promised a push for “progressive values” like wage equality and reproductive freedoms. His conservative opponent promised to adhere to the position’s basic, more traditional roles, like auditing public records and officiating elections.
In the end, the opponent, Dennis Richardson won 48% of the popular vote, beating Avakian by nearly 100,000 votes. The victory makes Richardson the first Republican to win a statewide office in Oregon since 2002. READ MORE
Aaron & Melissa Klein – Sweet Cakes by Melissa
First Liberty Institute is representing Aaron and Melissa Klein, owners of “Sweet Cakes by Melissa,” in a battle for the Oregon couple’s religious freedom. In 2013, two women asked the Kleins to make a cake celebrating their same-sex wedding. As devout Christians, the Kleins felt that helping celebrate the wedding would violate their faith, so they declined to make the cake—only to have the state punish them with a $135,000 penalty and issue a gag order against them. The Kleins were forced to shut down their business.

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: As Netanyahu Remains Mostly Silent, Christians In Israel Experiencing Persecution From Orthodox Jews
Netanyahu silent as Evangelical Christians in Jerusalem see persecution from hard-right Jewish religious groups, why is it happening now?
The Jerusalem Post reports that ‘Over the past few months, previously latent tensions between extremist Jewish groups and Christians have flared into open conflicts, resulting in incidents affecting various branches of the Christian community. These events have targeted evangelical volunteers engaged in activities within Israel and residents of Orthodox and Armenian Christian enclaves in the Old City and northern Israel.’ Some have linked the recent surge in explicit hostility to the rise of the ruling coalition, which includes several far-Right factions like Noam, Otzma Yehudit, and certain members of the Religious Zionist Party. These parties are staunch proponents of safeguarding Israel’s Orthodox Jewish identity and have openly opposed the public presence of Christianity.’
“These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.” John 16:1-3 (KJB)
On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we see Benjamin Netanyahu who over the years has been openly grateful and appreciative of ongoing outpouring of support from evangelical Christian groups in the United States. But here in his 5th term, 5 in the Bible is the number of death and judgment, Netanyahu is doing very little to stem the tide of hate coming from hard-right religious groups in Israel towards Christians in Jerusalem. Now, this could be just a momentary ‘glitch in the Matrix’, or it could be we are watching the leaders of Israel preparing themselves to receive Antichrist as the prophets tell us they will in places like Daniel 9:27 and Isaiah 28:14-19 in your King James Bible. On this episode, we travel to Jerusalem to investigate the troubling turning tide against Christians in Israel.

- 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
- “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
- “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.

Outrage As A New Proposed Bill In The Knesset In Israel Would Send Christians To Jail For Witnessing To Jews About Salvation In Jesus Christ
Leading evangelical Christians are publicly urging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to scuttle legislation introduced by ultra-Orthodox members of his coalition that would punish Christian attempts to witness Jesus to the Jews with imprisonment.
As we said on the Podcast on Monday, Benjamin Netanyahu’s 5th term as prime minister of Israel got off to a rocky start, and so far has stayed there. Now comes the news that 2 members of his government are pushing a bill that would send Christians to jail for telling a Jew how to get saved. And just like that, we are back in the book of Acts. Why is this happening? Because the Church Age is coming to a close, and all the world is preparing itself to receive Antichrist and his coming 7-year kingdom.
“And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.” Acts 5:40-42 (KJB)
Benjamin Netanyahu has over the years formed a warm alliance with the American evangelical community, who for their part, have never been overly enthusiastic about telling lost Jews in Israel about salvation in Jesus Christ. I am remember the time that John Hagee, founder of Christians United For Israel (CUFI), when asked to speak at the dedication of the US Embassy in Jerusalem. He had the attention of all Israel and the entire world, and spoke not a word about ‘bringing back the King’. Hagee knows how the game is played, so this proposed bill won’t affect him and his crew at all. But to the Bible believing street preacher in Jerusalem, the warning bells of the coming persecution are tolling for thee.
New bill proposed in Israel will make it a crime to tell a Jew about salvation in Jesus Christ
FROM HAARETZ: The legislation – introduced by United Torah Judaism MKs Moshe Gafni and Yaakov Asher – would apply to anyone who would attempt to persuade someone from changing their religious beliefs. The legislation, however, specifically notes that “the attempts of missionary groups, mainly Christians, to solicit conversion of religion have increased.”
The UTJ bill further outlaws sharing New Testament theology via online videos, online articles, social media, written literature and other forms of media. It further stipulates one year imprisonment for explaining faith in Jesus to an adult and two years imprisonment if discussing it with a minor.
The bill’s primary objective, therefore, appears to be making it illegal for followers of Jesus (“Yeshua” in Hebrew) to explain why they believe that Jesus is both Messiah and God with the hope that Israelis might consider following Him.
Netanyahu and his allies – namely former Israel Ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer – have publicly and privately stressed the importance of evangelical support as U.S. Jews have grown increasingly critical of Israel’s rightward shift. This dynamic has largely fueled Israel becoming an increasingly partisan issue where Republicans have adopted increasingly pro-Israel sentiments – both within international geopolitics and local domestic politics.
The legislation, first reported by evangelical website All Israel News, has already provoked significant outcry from leading evangelical Christians — many of whom have been stalwart supporters of Netanyahu over the past several decades.
“The bill could also draw sharp criticism from both Republicans and Democrats in Congress, in the executive branch, among U.S. governors and others who love Israel and have always stood with the Jewish state, but would fiercely oppose efforts to silence followers of Jesus in the Holy Land,” All Israel News’ Joel Rosenberg warned.

Will New Israeli Bill outlaw the Gospel?!
Israel is in the middle of civil unrest and terror attacks. The new government is pushing controversial reforms to the court system, that could take power away from the courts to uphold basic laws that ensure human rights and religious freedom. Despite assurances that human rights will be preserved in these reforms a updated version of the “Anti-Missionary” bill has been brought to the Knesset once again, this updated bill in the light of the judicial reforms could make it illegal to share your faith in person or online in Israel!
Watch Listen As John Hagee Denies That Jesus Christ Came To Earth As The Messiah
When Hagee released this book a few years back, claims he made about Jesus were deemed so heretical that Hagee was forced to remove all of chapter 10 and rewrite it to correct his heresy. This clip is the one of the few surviving copies of the official television commercial Hagee made to promote his book. At the very least, John Hagee will not be able to deny he said these things.

When Will Pope Francis And The Roman Catholic Church Apologize For The Slaughter Of Millions Of Christians During The Spanish Inquisition?
When will Pope Francis and the Roman Catholic Church apologize for the millions of Christians slaughtered during the 300 years of the Spanish Inquisition?
Pope Francis, ruler of the Roman Catholic Church as well as the king of Vatican City, has been on an ‘apology tour’ lately, attempting to placate critics of the Roman Harlot with pretend apologies for past atrocities. If he really meant business, Pope Francis would apologize for 300 years of slaughtering Christians for the crimes of owning a Bible and not worshipping the Roman eucharist. The truth about the Spanish Inquisition has been all but wiped from our collective memory, but thank God for men like historian John Foxe who faithfully recorded those atrocities and put them in a book called Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, a must-read for all true Christians. You will get so much more out of your study of books of like Revelation, Zechariah and Lamentations after reading Foxe’s Book of Martyrs and getting the context.
“And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.” Revelation 17:6 (KJB)
For 300 years, the Roman Catholic Church, the true enemy of biblical Christianity, slaughtered millions of Christians by burning them at the stake, tied up while being forced to watch priests and bishops rape their wives and murder their children as they were fed to the flames. Hebrews describes it quite well when it prophetically says “And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;” in Hebrews 11:37,38 (KJB). God’s answer to the Spanish Inquisition was the King James Bible, and everytime you open that Book and hold it in your hands, you are reading a Book literally bathed in blood that countless others gave their life to produce.
Pope Francis apologizes for forced assimilation of Indigenous children at residential schools
FROM CBC: The first day of Pope Francis’s “penitential pilgrimage” began with a heartfelt apology delivered at the site of one of Canada’s largest residential schools and ended eight hours later with blessings and songs at an intimate service in the only designated Indigenous church in Canada.
In a morning event in a First Nation community in central Alberta, Pope Francis apologized for members of the Catholic Church who co-operated with Canada’s “devastating” policy of Indigenous residential schools.
He said the forced assimilation of Indigenous peoples into Christian society destroyed their cultures, severed their families and marginalized generations in ways still being felt today.
“I humbly beg forgiveness for the evil committed by so many Christians against the Indigenous peoples,” Francis told thousands of Indigenous people, including many survivors, who converged on Maskwacis, Alta., about 100 kilometres south of Edmonton
To applause from those gathered, the Pope repeatedly begged forgiveness for actions of the past, supported by many members of the Church, which created the “disastrous error” and “deplorable evil” of residential schools. He said the memories of the children who never returned from residential schools have left him with a sense of “sorrow, indignation and shame.” READ MORE
