THE NTEB PODCAST: As His ‘Jesus Is King’ Album Hits No. #1 On The Billboard Charts, We Need To Ask Is Kanye West Really A Born Again Christian Or An End Times Deceiver?

Did Kanye West really become born again, did he truly get saved according to scripture, or is this a marketing plan to sell his new ‘Jesus Is King’ album?

Published

Right now the main topic of conversation all across the boards on Facebook is about Kanye West, about his new album, about his Sunday Service travelling show, but most specifically about his recent claim of becoming a born again Christian. 
SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Salvation is not a surface thing, biblical New Testament salvation in Jesus Christ happens on the inside, and it happens with the preaching of the gospel of the grace of God, and it always changes you.

On November 3rd, Billboard announced that the new ‘Jesus Is King’ album placed in the No. #1 spot on their Top 200 charts, making it the ninth consecutive debut at No. 1 for rap artist Kanye West. ‘Jesus Is King‘ was released on Oct. 25 via G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam Recordings and earned 264,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 31, according to Nielsen Music. Wow, and how was your week? Probably not nearly as exciting as that.

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)

Right now the main topic of conversation all across the boards on Facebook is about Kanye West, about his new album, about his Sunday Service travelling show, but most specifically about his recent claim of becoming a born again Christian. When I first heard this news of his conversion to Christianity, I thought that it was a great thing, I really did. I love to see God save anyone, it is always exciting to see Him work. After all, Now The End Begins is a ministry that seeks and works to spread the gospel of the grace of God that people might be saved. So yes, I rejoiced over the news of Kanye getting saved.

THE NTEB PODCAST:

But almost as soon as I began looking into it, watching a few videos of his Sunday Service shows, red flags began to pop up immediately. I started looking for any audio or video clips talking about his conversion, but try as I might, I could not find any evidence of the gospel. Yes, he used some pretty good buzzwords that saved people will use, but everything seemed on the surface. Salvation is not a surface thing, biblical New Testament salvation in Jesus Christ happens on the inside, and it happens with the preaching of the gospel of the grace of God.

When someone you know gets saved, you take them at their word, and do your best to help them grow in grace as they start walking with the Lord. And should it turn out that they really didn’t get saved, that’s sad but it happens, then you pray for them and everyone goes their separate ways. But when someone who is as crazy famous – 29.3 million followers on Twitter alone –  as Kanye West says he got saved, well that can greatly and disproportionately influence people on a global scale. That’s a good thing if he really got saved, but if it’s not genuine, then now you have set the table for a potential end times mass deception.

“I ain’t here to argue about his facial features, Or here to convert atheists into believers.
I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers, The way Kathie Lee needed Regis,
that’s the way I need Jesus”  – from ‘Jesus Walks‘ by Kanye West

Tonight we will be doing a 2-hour live podcast called The Kanye West Deception. We will not be attacking Kanye in any way, but we will be examining his words, his testimony, his Sunday Service shows, the lyrics to the songs on his No. #1 new album ‘Jesus Is King‘, and we will compare what we find to scripture and see if we can rightly divide if Kanye West has a). truly become born again, is b). just using Christianity as an ‘evil genius’ marketing ploy, or c). worse. Don’t forget, it was not that long ago that Kanye West put a crown of thorns on his head and proclaimed himself to be Yeezus, in absolute mockery of Jesus Christ. I would be remiss in my capacity as editor-in-chief of NTEB if we didn’t do a full-scale investigation of his claimed conversion.

I have long believed that we would see an end times revival before the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church, but that it would be a false revival leading people astray. Jesus said the last church would be the Laodicean Church, and I believe Him.  Tonight we will examine the evidence before us of Kanye West and his claimed conversion, please join us.

NEWS FROM THE FRONT: A Note From An Inmate In A Texas Prison And An Email From A Listener With An Urgent Plea For Bibles For The Remnant Church

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

From a Men’s prison in Texas to a tiny Baptist church well off the beaten path, requests for King James Bibles continue to light up our inbox on a daily basis

We received a handwritten note from an inmate currently housed in the Mark W. Michael Unit in Texas, name withheld, writing to us saying he had heard about Bibles Behind Bars and wanted to know if he could get a Ruckman Reference Bible sent to him at the prison. We have reached out to the chaplain there for permission, not just to send one Bible, but as many as he thinks they might need for their facility. The other letter comes from a longtime listener Gary who attends a tiny little church in Aubrey, Texas called Antioch Baptist, wanting to know if we could replace their NIV bibles with KJVs. You know what that is? That’s the Free Bible Program and Bibles Behind Bars standing side by side.

“How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!” Isaiah 52:7 (KJB)

NTEB listener Gary M wrote and said “I am writing to you regarding your free Bible program. I attend a church with a small congregation. Just how we like it. It is a remnant church with no more than 30 parishioners on a good day. I have been attending Antioch for about a year and I noticed when I came here they only had NIV bibles in the pews. I discussed this with the pastor and he directed me to inventory the Bibles we have in hand. I told him I would like to remove the NIV Bibles and replace them with 1611 KJVs and to also have a few extras on hand to give to those in need who do not have a Bible of their own. We are in need of approximately 50 Bibles. It would be a blessing to us, our church, our congregation, and our community if you would be able to help us in this regard. Thank you for all you do.” We are the remnant Church, no doubt about that, and our Free Bible Program and Bibles Behind Bars are the supply lines in this end times fight. Can we answer both these requests? TO THE FIGHT!!!

From a rough and tumble Texas prison, to a tiny little 19th-century Baptist Church on the backside of nowhere housing the remnant, the need for copies of the preserved word of the Lord has never been greater. The Lord has graciously given us a massive open door to send out as many Bibles as we have an appetite for. How about you? Are you hungry to get something done for the Lord in these last days? If so, come help us, we need you!

If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this monumental task of providing King James Bibles, New Testaments, scripture portions, gospel tracts as well as Spanish Bibles to inmates in jails and prisons from Florida to Alaska, and every state in between. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: As Pope Leo XIV Takes The Helm Of The Roman Catholic Church, Trump Turns Away From Netanyahu And Israel To Saudis

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Both Pope Leo XIV and President Donald Trump have been tasked with carrying out essentially the same task, albeit from opposite sides in order to meet in the middle

While the big story this week has been the election of a new pope to sit in Satan’s seat in the Vatican, the real story is quietly unfolding in the Middle East. President Donald Trump and the tech titans are headed to Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar next week, bypassing and ignoring Israel in the process. Not only that, but Trump revealed he had made a deal with the Houthis unknown to Netanyahu who was left in the dark. Topping it all off, Trump is teasing “a very, very big announcement … as big as it gets.” That’s the memo.

“And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” Revelation 17:5 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, before he became Pope Leo XIV, Robert Prevost was appointed cardinal by Pope Francis, and not only that, as the prefect of the Dicastery of Bishops as well. So obviously he is one of the main ones that Pope Francis put in place so that the radical agenda he set during his 12 years as Pontifex Maximus would continue to be carried out. Today we are going to look at two political and religious forces, the first being Pope Leo XIV and the second President Donald Trump. Together, these men are working opposite sides of the same coin to ultimately meet in the middle. The end times are unfolding before your eyes, can you see it?

ALL HAIL POPE LEO XIV Vatican Smoke Blows White As New Pope Robert Francis Prevost Over The Roman Catholic Faithful Will Sit In The Seat Of Caesar

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, the first pope ever elected from America will serve as Pope Leo XIV over the Roman Catholic faithful

The white smoke pouring out of the smokestack at the Vatican let the world know that a new pope, a new Pontifex Maximus in the seat of Caesar, has been selected. We showed you in our article from the other day ‘From Rome To Roman Catholic’ the true evolution of Roman Catholic Church with its roots, not in the Bible, but in the governmental system of the Roman Empire. The somewhat stunning choice of American Robert Francis Prevost as new Roman pope is certainly a surprise very few people had on their scorecards. One thing’s for sure, he is a progressive and will carry out the agenda of the recently-deceased Pope Francis.

And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.” Revelation 14:11 (KJB)

The majority of the King James Bible translators all thought that the Antichrist would come from Rome, with whatever pope at that time fulfilling that end time role. That’s certainly a great guess in line with Revelation 17 and 18, but the longer I study the Book the more I come to a slightly different conclusion. I see the Roman pope in the role of the False Prophet who is to Antichrist what John the Baptist was to Jesus. This new pope is young and ambitious and we will be following his every move.

Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost has just been elected Pope Leo XIV

FROM CNN: Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost of the United States has been elected the 267th pope and will soon step onto the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica as the new leader of the world’s 1.4 billion Catholics.

Prevost, 69, from Chicago, Illinois, is the first ever pope from the United States. He will be known as Leo XIV.

A leader with global experience, he spent much of his career as a missionary in South America and most recently led a powerful Vatican office for bishop appointments. He is expected to build on Pope Francis’ reforms.

He worked for a decade in Trujillo, Peru, and was later appointed bishop of Chiclayo, another Peruvian city, where he served from 2014 to 2023.

In an interview with Vatican News shortly after he became the leader of the Dicastery for Bishops, Prevost said: “I still consider myself a missionary. My vocation, like that of every Christian, is to be a missionary, to proclaim the Gospel wherever one is.” READ MORE

Cardinal Robert Prevost, an American missionary who spent his career ministering in Peru and leads the Vatican’s powerful office of bishops, was elected the first American pope in the 2,000-year history of the Catholic Church. Prevost, 69, took the name Leo XIV.
