SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Paul’s gospel was startlingly different from Peter’s gospel as it did not contain baptism as necessary for salvation, neither did it contain repentance as a prior requirement.

Talk with most Christians about how people get saved, and they will invariably reply that it’s by the hearing, receiving and believing of the gospel, which is true. But then the trouble starts when I ask them which gospel in the New Testament they are referring to. That questions is usually met with a “huh?” and a blank stare. “More than one gospel?”, they say. “How can that be?” But the plain truth is that the New Testament is not entirely written either about or to Christians alone. Now a Christian can draw teaching and inspiration from all of it, but not find their doctrine in all its pages. The New Testament is a much larger story than simply that of the Christian Church.

“And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.” Ephesians 6:19,20 (KJV)

Because the New Testament can be at any one time addressing either the Jews and Israel, the Church and the Body of Christ, or the unsaved Gentiles, it must be rightly divided to see what is doctrine for us and what is doctrine for someone else. Today we will take a look at the various different gospels contained in the New Testament, and see who they were preached by, preached to and preached for. I am not giving you the list in chronological order or in order of importance. Rather this listing will be in order of relevance to Christians in the Age of Grace alive in our dispensation.

#1). The Gospel Of Peter:

“Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” Acts 2:37,38 (KJV)

A Christian wrote to me the other day, and said that they had been saved according to Acts 2:38, to which I replied no you didn’t. After the “huh?” and the blank stare, they asked why not? I told them that when Peter, who was the apostle to the Jews, preached that gospel on Pentecost, it was preached only to Jews. More than that, it was a gospel of faith + works. Lastly, it was not a gospel that forgave them their sins, rather it only put their sins in remission. If you have cancer and it goes into remission are you cured? No, but you’re not sick either. Safe but not saved according to Paul’s preaching, but more on that in a minute.

Peter’s gospel was preached to Jews, in Israel, who were waiting for a King to bring them a Kingdom at the Second Coming. This is why you see Peter invoking the fulfillment of Joel’s prophecy of the Second Coming in Acts 2:14-21 (KJV). At this point, there is no Rapture of the Church on the table at all, and the Church which was being formed was a Church for Jews waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus. Gentiles were not part of the Body of Christ nor would they be until Acts 8 with the Ethiopian Eunuch.

Peter’s gospel was nearly identical to that preached by the last Old Testament prophecy, John the Baptist. If you wanted to “get in” and receive the salvation being offered at that time, baptism was required. Christians in the Age of Grace do not get baptized for salvation, they get baptized after becoming saved. Big difference. Someone who gets saved in our dispensation receives immediate forgiveness for all sins – past, present and future – and not the “remission of sins” offered by Peter’s gospel.

#2). The Gospel Of Paul:

“Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.” Romans 16:25-27 (KJV)

Saul who became Paul, who was the sworn enemy of the Jewish followers of Jesus Christ, got knocked off his horse on the Damascus Road, and received his commission to preach and teach the gospel from Jesus Christ directly. The gospel that he received was unknown to the other apostles, and Paul constantly referred to it as “my gospel”.

Paul’s gospel was startlingly different from Peter’s gospel as it did not contain baptism as necessary for salvation, neither did it contain repentance as a prior requirement. I am not saying that Paul did not preach repentance because he certainly did, but in his gospel it’s in a different order. Peter preached that works of baptism and repentance came first, Paul preached that they came after. Christians in the Age of Grace do not receive the “gift of the Holy Ghost”, the Holy Ghost takes up residence inside of us. Huge difference. Our sins don’t go into remission, they are forgiven and removed immediately and for all time.

When the Philippian jailer wanted to know how to get saved, he was told by Paul to do one thing and one thing only – believe on Jesus Christ. The baptism came many hours after that.

“And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house. And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.” Acts 16:30-33 (KJV)

Paul called the gospel that he preached “my gospel” because it was given to him first by revelation, and he then went to the apostles and taught it to them. Paul’s gospel was the larger revelation of the Body of Christ, born again believers made up of Jews and Gentiles. Peter preached to Jews only on Pentecost. Peter ends 2 Peter by acknowledging that Paul had unique revelation from the Lord, called it scripture, and warned that it could mess you up if you did not ‘rightly divide’ it.

“And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.” 2 Peter 3:15,16 (KJV)

#3). The Gospel Of The Kingdom:

“The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 4:16,17 (KJV)

“But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Matthew 15:24 (KJV)

Jesus preached the gospel of the Kingdom to the Jews, which included the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of Heaven is a literal, visible, earthly kingdom in Israel and the Kingdom of God is a spiritual kingdom. When the Jews rejected Jesus by killing Him on the cross, and then rejecting the Holy Spirit with the stoning of Stephen, the Kingdom of God was taken from them and given to the Gentiles who formed the Body of Christ. Jesus prophesied about this in Matthew 21:

“Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.” Matthew 21:43 (KJV)

Jesus gospel was only to the Jews, preparing them for the coming kingdom. He came to save “His people”, the Jews, from their sins. Jesus preached salvation by a combination of faith + works, as is clearly evident in Matthew 24 and 25. The Sermon on the Mount was not preached for any Christian Church, it was preached as a kind of Constitution of the coming Kingdom. There is much in there that is profitable for the Christian, but our doctrine lies in the writings of Paul. The apostolic signs mentioned in Mark 16 are not meant for any Christian Church, and it is by turns laughable and sadly tragic when we see people in the Age of Grace attempting to prove they have those signs. This signs were given to Jewish apostles in Jesus day, and they will again be given to the 144,000 Jewish Witnesses in the time of Jacob’s trouble. But as doctrine they skip the Church Age entirely. If you would like to prove me wrong, attempt any of the following:

Heal everyone you lay hands on.
Drink poison and not die or be affected by it.
Get bite by a deadly snake and not die or be affected by it.

The Jews in the Millennium will finally receive the promised Kingdom of Heaven that Jesus preached to them about, they will live safely in Israel under their promised King who delivers them the promised Kingdom. During the same time period the Church, made up of born again, saved Jews and Gentiles, will administer the Kingdom of God by ruling and reigning with our Lord.

“It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:” 2 Timothy 211,12 (KJV)

#4). The Everlasting Gospel:

“And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.” Revelation 14:6,7 (KJV)

The last gospel to be preached right before the Second Coming will be the ‘Everlasting Gospel’, and it will be preached by an angel flying overhead. This is one, last admonition to the world, mostly gentiles at this point, to ‘fear God’, to ‘give him the glory’, and to ‘worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters’.

During this time period Jews are under the Law of Moses, gentiles are told to ‘endure to the end’, and if anyone takes the Mark of the Beast their soul becomes lost and damned forever. Taking the Mark is the ‘unforgivable sin’ in the time of Jacob’s trouble, as we see here:

“And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: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 14:9-11 (KJV)

People are saved in the time of Jacob’s trouble by having faith in Jesus Christ and keeping the commandments of God:

“Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” Revelation 14:12 (KJV)

You can lose your salvation during the Tribulation, you cannot lose it now in the Church Age. Another huge difference.

The Everlasting Gospel is different from any other gospel preached in the New Testament, and will apply only in the time of Jacob’s trouble, and it will only be preached by an angel from heaven.

In conclusion, we could also talk about the differences between the gospels found in Matthew, Mark and Luke and the very different gospel found in John. MM&L are based completely to the Jews and Israel while John’s gospel talks about being born again in John 3, eternal security in John 10, and the Rapture of the yet-to-be-formed Church in John 14. None of these things found anywhere in MM&L.

The one common thing that all the different gospels contain is that they all come from Jesus Christ, albeit in different dispensations. Confusion only arises when you fail to ‘rightly divide’ the Bible and you attempt to place yourself or someone else in a dispensation that they do not belong in. The New Testament is not the story of the Christian Church alone, it contains that story but also include the Jews and Israel as a separate entity and the gentiles as a separate entity.

“Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.” 1 Corinthians 11:1 (KJV)

This is why the apostle Paul commands Christians to ‘follow me as I follow Jesus’, and not be followers of Matthew, Mark, Peter or anyone else. Only Paul’s gospel is for the Christian Church, and until the Rapture it will remain the only way of salvation available to lost people on this earth. In the Tribulation it won’t save you at all.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8,9 (KJV)

Salvation by grace through faith alone is different from any other gospel found in the Bible and is for the Church Age alone. We do no works to get saved, and we perform no works to stay saved.

I Am A Born Again Bible Believing Christian Who Is Also A Zionist That Stands With The Jews And Supports The Nation Of Israel, Now You Pick A Side

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Zionism is the belief that all the land of Israel, Zion, belongs to God who gave it to the Jews, and that God Himself will return at the Second Advent to rule the world from Israel.

In your King James Bible, Zion is a city and it is connected to both Bethlehem and Jerusalem for some really good reasons. In Bethlehem David was anointed by Samuel the prophet, in Bethlehem Jesus the Saviour was born. David became king over a unified Israel which included Israel to the north and Judah to the south. Jesus at the Second Advent will sit on David’s throne over a unified Israel in a kingdom that rules the entire world. If you hate Zionism now, then you better sit out the Millennium because Zion will be the center of the universe.

“Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.” Psalm 135:21 (KJB)

Today is Day 207 of the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, and here in America that war has spilled over and popped up in the form of pro-Hamas and pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses all across America. All over social media, the words ‘Zion’ and ‘Zionists’ are being spit out as insults, with even many so-called Christians railing against the evil and hated Zionists. Alex Jones posted an anti-Israel video yesterday with the title ‘The Zionist Death Grip On The United States Government’. Jones has high support amongst the Bible-deficient Christian community who are shamefully unaware that God Himself is a Zionist who is preparing to bring in a Zionist kingdom that will be ruled by Zionism.

“The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.” Psalm 146:10 (KJB)
“And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.” Isaiah 2:3 (KJB)
“Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.” Isaiah 8:18 (KJB)
“Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.” Isaiah 12:6 (KJB)
“Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.” Isaiah 24:23 (KJB)
“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.” Isaiah 28:16 (KJB)
“For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.” Isaiah 30:19 (KJB)
“For it is the day of the LORD’S vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.” Isaiah 34:8 (KJB)
“I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.” Isaiah 46:13 (KJB)
“For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.” Jeremiah 30:17 (KJB)
“And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.” Micah 4:2 (KJB)
“Thus saith the LORD; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain.” Zechariah 8:3 (KJB)

The word ‘Zion’ appears 152 times in 152 verse in your King James Bible, and as you can see, that word is used to show a geographic location on the Earth that was ruled over by King David and will soon be ruled over by King Jesus in the Millennium. You can also see what God thinks about Zion, and what He thinks about the political doctrine we call Zionism. What is Zionism then from a biblical perspective? It is the belief that all the land of Israel belongs to God who gave it to the Jews, and that God Himself will return at the Second Advent to rule the world from Israel, also called Zion dozens of times. If you are a Christian who names Jesus, the coming Zionist King, as your Saviour, how on Earth are you not a Zionist? Because you don’t read your Bible, and if you do, you don’t believe what you read there.

Is Israel a perfect nation? No, obviously not, no nation is including America which seems to be on the verge of succumbing to a Communist takeover at the moment. Are the Jews perfect people? Not by a long shot. They are far from the Bible, and currently have next to no relationship with Jehovah God, a truly sad state of affairs. But none of that diminishes aught in any way the fact, if you believe your Bible, that Jesus Christ is coming as King to rule and reign from Jerusalem, the city of Zion. It will be then that He will redeem His people, the Jews, and they will be on top, and you who were left behind after the Rapture and somehow made it into the Millennium, will now live for a thousand years with the Jews on top.

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.” Zechariah 8:23 (KJB)

Christian, do yourself a favor. As we watch America struggling with a very fast rising tide of antisemitism, why don’t you pick a side and stay there? You see, I believe my Bible, and I know how it all winds up, who wins, and how it all will go when the end times dust settles. So here and now, by faith, I stand on the side of the King of the Jews, on the side of His chosen people, and with the biblical, and literal, physical, and earthly Zion which is the City of David. Where do you stand?

“And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.” Romans 11:26,27 (KJB)

NTEB RADIO BIBLE STUDY: Understanding The Role Of Water Baptism In New Testament Salvation In The Life Of The Born Again Believer In Jesus Christ

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

In our dispensation, water baptism doesn’t save you, not even a little bit, but believing the gospel Paul preached for salvation sure does

Last Sunday, Hollywood actor Russell Brand told the world he ‘got baptized and became a Christian’, last year hundreds of people were baptized in the wake of the ‘Jesus Revolution’ movie, Kanye West had his children baptized in Israel, and the list goes on and on. What you rarely, if ever, hear, is a biblical testimony of salvation that should absolutely precede the ‘glorious!, awesome!, I feel so clean!’ moment of water baptism. More importantly, what does your King James Bible have to say about baptism? Let’s find out.

“And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” Acts 8:36,37 (KJB)

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, every time a famous person gets baptized, the knee-jerk reaction is always to believe they’ve also gotten saved, and that is a theologically dangerous place to be. John the Baptist baptized people, but it was with the understanding that it was preparing them to meet the Lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world. Peter preached water baptism that was connected to salvation, true, but he was preaching to Jews awaiting the Kingdom of Heaven at the Second Advent. The apostle Paul does not preach baptism at all, in his gospel salvation is by grace through faith alone. What must I do to be saved? Believe the gospel, full stop. Tonight we show you the dispensational nature of water baptism, and exactly where it belongs in the life of a born again Christian living in the Church Age.

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 met you at the car dealership earlier this year. We spoke briefly, then you handed me a card and told me to check out the website. You left. A few minutes later, you returned to tell me not to forget to look up the website. I told you…” I already did. I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love. I am convinced that God sent you to share the Good News that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. For that, and for the work you are doing for the Kingdom of God, I say…Thank you and God Bless You.” Sonia Merced

“I’m a KJB believer. We’re so close to being “caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 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
“Love the Sunday night bible study. I want to support someone who has the passion for the lost like Geoffrey does and rightly divides the word of God. God bless you.” Teresa Carey
“I give because not many news outlets are brave enough or Godly enough to tell these stories from a Christian’s point of view. I see stories here that will not be seen anywhere else.” William Grayshaw

Social Media Erupts With Stories Of A Red Heifer Being Sacrificed In Israel For Passover, Will It Actually Happen? No, And Here’s Why It Won’t.

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Christians all across social media are buzzing about the possibility of a red heifer being sacrificed in Jerusalem for Passover, sorry to disappoint them

There is a group in Christianity today, I will call them a fringe group from a doctrinal perspective, and they are advocating for the building of a Third Temple in Israel, on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Not only that, but they seem intent on the sacrifice of a red heifer to kickstart the whole process. There are many problems associated with all this, and we will briefly touch on each one of them.

“And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke:” Numbers 19:1,2 (KJB)

First of all, there is no Temple in Israel, and not only that, there is no commandment for the Jews to build one right now. In order for that to take place, God would have to be speaking afresh through one of His prophets, giving instruction on exactly what to do and how to do it. In the Old Testament, we see God speaking to people like Moses, David, Solomon, Daniel and Ezekiel about the creation of a Temple of some kind. We clearly see when the first one is built, when that one is rebuilt, how it falls into Roman hands under Herod, and then disappears altogether in 70 AD..

“Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:4 (KJB)

Will there be a rebuilt Temple in the time of Jacob’s trouble? Yes, and it will be the Temple of and for Antichrist. It is called the “temple of God” but only because Antichrist is pretending to be God and is received as such by the Jews in that time period after the Rapture of the Church takes place. So that takes care of the Temple problem, now the red heifer.

You can sacrifice a red heifer all you like, and nothing will happen, even if you somehow are able to to it on the Temple Mount. Why? Because there is no commandment from God to do that in the Church Age. Zero. The best you could do would be a tragic cartoonish recreation, like when the Charismatics pretend they have the apostolic signs and go around claiming they’re performing miracles when they clearly are not. Now, sacrificing a red heifer on the Temple Mount might start a war between the Jews and the Palestinians, but it won’t advance the prophetic timeline one second. Today, police arrested 21 worshippers on the suspicion of planning to sacrifice a Passover offering in the Jerusalem area. The legal center of the Honenu organization was notified of eight arrests since Monday morning on suspicion of planning to sacrifice a Passover offering. Like I said, it’s not going to happen.

As Christians, we are not waiting for a Temple to be built, we already have one. As Christians, we have no need to sacrifice any animal as we have a better High Priest with a better sacrifice. Himself. The Jewish people will be the focus after we leave, but for now, for Passover 2024, it is still the Church Age and salvation is only in Jesus Christ. The Bible is very specific about conditions that need to be met in order for things like the building of a Temple and the sacrificing of a red heifer to take place, and those conditions do not exist at the moment. The only thing that sacrificing a red heifer now would do would be to get you arrested and put in jail. It won’t usher in the end times because doctrine matters.
