SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

On this Sunday Service, we see a God who loves His creation so much that He ransomed them from sin with His own blood, herein is love

This is not the typical “Christmas message” you might expect the last Sunday before Christmas, but it is in the truest sense of what the birth of Jesus means from a biblical perspective. The day that God the Father took on a human form and came to this Earth to redeem His own creation is perhaps the greatest day in recorded history, second only to His arrival at the Second Advent to establish His Millennial Reign of perfect rule and righteousness. Today you will hear about the renowned atheist Stephen Fry and his accusations against the God he calls ‘a monster’. What we find is the exact opposite, we find a God in love with His creation and willing to sacrifice Himself to redeem it. This is where we find true love.

“Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.” 1 John 4:10,11 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: Herein Is Love

Herein is Love

Atheist Stephen Fry on God

Gay Byrne:

… suppose it’s all true and you walk up to the pearly gates and you are confronted by God. What would Stephen Fry say to him, her or it?

Stephen Fry:

I will basically (it’s known as theodicy I think) I’ll say, “Bone cancer in children? What’s that about? How dare you! How dare you create a world where there is such misery that is not our fault! It’s not right. It is utterly, utterly evil. Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid god who creates a world that is so full of injustice and pain. That’s what I’d say.

GB: And you think you’re going to get in?

SF: Oh, but I wouldn’t want to. I wouldn’t want to get in on his terms. They’re wrong. Now, if I died and it was Pluto, Hades and if it were the twelve Greek gods, then I’d have more truck with it because the Greeks didn’t pretend not to be human in their appetites, and in their capriciousness and their unreasonableness; they didn’t present themselves as being all-seeing, all-wise, all-kind, all-munificent; because the god who created this universe (if it was created by God) is, quite clearly, a maniac – utter maniac, totally selfish.

We have to spend our life on our knees thanking him? What kind of god would do that?

Yes, the world is very splendid, but it also has in it insects whose whole life-cycle is to burrow into the eyes of children and make them blind. They eat outwards from the eyes. Why did you do that? Why? Why did you do that to us? You could easily have made a creation where that didn’t exist. It is simply not acceptable. So, you know, atheism is not just about not believing there’s a god – but, on the assumption there is one, what kind of god is it? It’s perfectly apparent that he is monstrous, utterly monstrous, and deserves no respect whatsoever. The moment you banish him your life becomes simpler, purer, cleaner – more worth living in my opinion.

Refuting Atheism And Answering The Charge That God Is “Unfair” Or “Unjust”

“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15 (KJB)

“For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:” 1 Peter 3:18 (KJB)

“And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas: (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.) Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them. But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.” Luke 23:18-21 (KJB)

1) Start Where The Bible Starts: God Is, And He Is Creator

Key truth: Atheism doesn’t merely “lack belief”—it suppresses truth God has made plain.

Romans 1:19-20 (KJV): “Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:”
Genesis 1:1 (KJV): “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”
Psalm 19:1 (KJV): “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.”

Outline notes:
Creation is not “neutral.” It testifies. Scripture says the problem is not lack of evidence, but moral refusal.

2) The Bible Describes “No God” As A Moral Posture, Not An Intellectual Achievement

Psalm 14:1 (KJV): “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.”

The “heart” language matters. The denial is rooted in the inner man—conscience, will, and love of sin—not simply an IQ debate.

3) Why The Hatred Toward God: Light Exposes Sin

The Bible explains why people resist God: God’s light condemns their darkness.

John 3:19-20 (KJV): “And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.”
Romans 8:7 (KJV): “Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.”
Colossians 1:21 (KJV): “And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled”

Scripture uses words like enmity and enemies—that’s hostility. When someone calls God “unfair,” it often functions as a shield against repentance.

4) The “Unfair God” Accusation: Who Is Man To Put God On Trial?

God answers the charge directly: the creature is not the judge of the Creator.

Romans 9:20-21 (KJV): “Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?”
Job 38:4 (KJV): “Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.”
Isaiah 55:8-9 (KJV): “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”

The Bible does not flatter human pride. It confronts it. God is not accountable to man; man is accountable to God.

5) God Is Not Unjust—He Is Perfectly Righteous

God’s justice isn’t “like” ours—ours is the broken imitation. His is the standard.

Deuteronomy 32:4 (KJV): “He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.”
Psalm 145:17 (KJV): “The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.”
Romans 3:4 (KJV): “God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.”

If God is “unjust,” then words like justice collapse—because justice must have an ultimate standard above man. Scripture says that standard is God Himself.

6) The Real “Unfairness” Argument Usually Ignores The Bible’s Diagnosis: All Are Guilty

People often speak as if humanity deserves innocence. The Bible says humanity is guilty.

Romans 3:10 (KJV): “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:”
Romans 3:23 (KJV): “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Romans 6:23 (KJV): “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Ezekiel 18:20 (KJV): “The soul that sinneth, it shall die.”

If God gave everyone what they “deserved,” that would be judgment. The shock of the Bible is that God offers mercy.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Emmanuel Macron Has Incredibly Just Emerged As The Major Player In Trump’s New Iran ‘Peace Deal’ Memorandum

Donald Trump’s Iran Peace Deal Signed At Versailles Under Emmanuel Macron’s Watch Is One Of The Most Stunning Prophecy Headlines Yet

President Donald Trump has signed an Iran ‘Peace Deal’ Memorandum Of Understanding at the Palace of Versailles, hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron, the man I believe may very well be the biblical man of sin. And he did it in the exact same palace where Germany signed the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 surrendering to the Allies, one of the most consequential peace documents of the modern age. You can’t make this stuff up. Christian, when you see Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron, Iran, peace, nuclear negotiations, the Middle East, Israel, global leaders, and the Palace of Versailles all coming together in one breathtaking prophetic tableau, you had better be paying attention. Very close attention.

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;” 2 Thessalonians 2:3 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, for years now, we have watched Emmanuel Macron move across the world stage with the kind of globalist ambition, European authority, Roman-flavored symbolism, and diplomatic reach that grabbed our attention way back in 2017. Macron is not just another European politician. He has repeatedly positioned himself as a mediator, a unifier, a voice for Europe, and a bridge between competing world powers. And now, he just hosted Donald Trump at Versailles as Trump signed an Iran ‘peace memorandum’, whatever that actually means. Donald Trump is not the Antichrist. He does not fit the biblical profile. But Trump has been deeply connected to Middle East peace architecture since the Abraham Accords. Those accords remain, in my view, one of the most prophetically significant developments of the modern era. They may not be Daniel 9:27 in completed form, but they absolutely could be part of the platform that the Antichrist later confirms. Iran has been one of the central prophetic and geopolitical pressure points in the Middle East. A deal involving Iran, nuclear negotiations, economic relief, global shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, and broader regional peace is not just political news, it is prophecy come to life. Today we will attempt to plumb the depths of the man that is Emmanuel Macron, our #1 candidate for the biblical man of sin.

The Normally Pro-Trump Sky News Australia Blasts The Iran Peace Deal Calling It “A Tragic And Expensive Waste Of Time” As The President Returns In Failure

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Trump’s Iran War Was Supposed To Show Strength But It Ended With Dead Soldiers, Dead Children, A Surviving Regime, And A ‘Paper Peace’ No One Can Explain

There it is, Donald Trump’s war with Iran has ended, but not with victory, regime change, the destruction of Iran’s wicked influence in the Middle East, or some grand masterstroke of “peace through strength,” but with a bewildering memorandum of understanding that leaves the Iranian regime standing, breathing, boasting, and preparing for whatever comes next. Trump’s Iran war should sober up every Christian who still believes that political power can save a collapsing world. It absolutely cannot. The old world system is not being restored. It is being prepared. Prepared for the revealing of the man of sin.

“Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.” Jeremiah 7:8 (KJB)

Iran is no innocent victim, the Iranian regime is wicked. It hates Israel, exports terror, persecutes its own people, arms proxies, and dreams of dominance in the region. But acknowledging Iran’s wickedness does not require pretending that every American military adventure is wisdom from above. Two things can be true at the same time: Tehran is evil, and Trump’s Iran war was a disastrous mistake. According to Sky’s Mark Stone, the White House announced that Trump had signed a memorandum aimed at ending the war with Iran, Iran’s foreign minister confirmed Tehran had signed it as well, and yet the whole thing was wrapped in confusion, contradictory timing, remote signatures, Versailles theatrics, and another expected signing still to come. That is not statesmanship, that’s diplomatic vaudeville with piles of dead bodies in the background.

Trump’s signing of the Iran Peace Deal is a slap in the face to the memory of the 13 United States soldiers who gave their lives in the war he started

The most haunting line in the Sky News analysis is this: “So many school children died in Minab. For what?” Sky reports that Trump still would not admit the strike was America’s mistake, while Stone says sources told him that it was. That cuts through all the campaign slogans, all the phony tough-guy branding, all the red MAGA hats, all the applause lines, and all the cable-news spin. Children died, teachers died, and families were shattered. And for what? A paper agreement that does not end Iran’s malign influence, does not make America great again, and does not appear to have solved the thing the war was supposedly fought over.

For years, conservative Christians were told that Trump was the master negotiator, the consumate dealmaker, the man who alone could command the world stage. But this Iran episode reveals something far more sobering: the world stage is not a boardroom, the Middle East is not a casino development, and the enemies of Israel and the West are not impressed by branding. You do not bomb your way into clarity, stumble your way into a memorandum, and then call the rubble you created “peace.”

This is why NTEB has always warned you against confusing politics with prophecy and politicians with deliverers. For the past 17 years, we have been giving you the headlines through the filter of the King James Bible, but we never confuse the two. God is not working through the Republican Party to ‘bring in the kingdom’. God is not waiting for a MAGA foreign policy to fulfill His promises to Israel. Israel would absolutely still exist without Donald Trump, no matter how many times Trump says the opposite. God is not dependent on Trump, Macron, Netanyahu, the G7, NATO, the UN, or the Department of War. The Lord has His own calendar, His own covenants, His own prophetic program, and His own King coming back to rule and reign. Until then, the nations will continue doing what the nations do: wars, rumours of wars, making deals, breaking promises, burying victims, and calling it progress.

Under The Watchful Gaze Of Emmanuel Macron, President Donald Trump Signs Memorandum Of Understanding Effectively Ending The Iran War

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Tonight Emmanuel Macron was a witness to history, and perhaps even prophecy as he witnessed Donald Trump sign Iran War MOU preserving Persia

There are moments in history that do not merely happen, they announce themselves. They come dressed in symbolism so thick, so unmistakable, so prophetically loaded, that only the willingly blind could miss what is taking place. Donald Trump signing away the U.S.-Iran War would have been shocking enough. But Donald Trump doing it at Versailles, with Emmanuel Macron standing there as the European prince in the room, blows the lid clean off the whole end times setup. Do you realize what just happened?

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)

America goes to war with Iran, the terror regime survives, the mullahs remain in power, the Strait of Hormuz becomes a bargaining chip, sanctions relief enters the conversation, and the whole thing is served up beneath the royal chandeliers of Versailles on a golden platter. And there, in the middle of the frame, stands Emmanuel Macron — polished, prepared, globalist, European, Roman, and just waiting for his time to come. We told you years ago to watch this man.

BREAKING NEWS: Under the watchful eye of Emmanuel Macron, US President Donald Trump signed the Memorandum Of Understanding that will preserve the Iranian terror regime in power. Wow, if only you had a King James Bible, you would know what just happened. https://t.co/kjJ6Z68I22

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) June 18, 2026

We told you Emmanuel Macron was not like the others. We showed you the strange prophetic markers gathering around him. We showed you the Assyrian trail. We showed you the revived Roman Empire architecture. We showed you the Vatican flavor, the Charlemagne language, the European sovereignty doctrine, the militarized Europe agenda, and the way this man seems to appear whenever the world stage starts bending toward Bible prophecy.

And now here he is again. Not off to the side. Not in the shadows. Not as a footnote. But standing right there as America signs terms with Persia.

Christian, don’t miss what just happened. Iran was not defeated. Iran was preserved. The terror regime was left standing. The mullahs were not dragged out. The nuclear question was not finally buried. The proxies were not erased. Instead, the world was given another “framework,” another “process,” another “window,” another globalist peace package that manages evil instead of destroying it.

That is how the coming kingdom of Antichrist is being built. It is being assembled piece by piece, treaty by treaty, summit by summit, war by war, crisis by crisis, and signing ceremony by signing ceremony. Each deal teaches the world to think globally. Each crisis teaches the world to surrender sovereignty. Each war teaches the world to beg for a savior. Each peace agreement teaches the world to accept the man who can make the madness stop. That man is coming. Versailles wasn’t just a dinner, a signing, or another diplomatic photo-op. It was a prophetic snapshot of the world that is coming. America weakened, Iran preserved, Europe elevated, and the man from France standing in the frame like the Assyrian waiting in the wings.
