The Big Story
Hurricane Michael At Category 4 Stage As It Prepares To Slam Into The Florida Panhandle Beginning On Wednesday
Hurricane Michael could be the strongest hurricane to make landfall along the stretch of the Florida Panhandle Gulf coast in the past 13 years experts say.

President Donald Trump warned Americans on Tuesday of the growing threat posed by Hurricane Michael as it heads to the Florida Panhandle
Hurricane Michael is fast shaping up to be the type of hurricane not seen in the Florida Panhandle for quite some time. Please pray for the safety of all those in Michael’s path, and for all the first responders who will be working to rescue and keep people safe.
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.” Psalm 91:1,2 (KJV)
NTEB will be updating this page throughout the duration of the storm, so check back often.
FROM WUNDERGROUND: Just hours away from an expected Wednesday afternoon landfall, Hurricane Michael became ever stronger and more organized on Tuesday night over the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Michael’s high winds, torrential rain, and very large storm surge were pushing briskly toward the Florida Panhandle and the Big Bend region just to the east, the areas in line to experience the worst impacts. Update (2 am EDT Wednesday): Michael has been upgraded to Category 4 strength as of 2 am EDT, with top sustained winds of 130 mph. Some additional strengthening is possible before landfall.
Satellite images of Michael’s evolution on Tuesday night were, in a word, jaw-dropping. A massive blister of thunderstorms (convection) erupted and wrapped around the storm’s eye, which has taken taking a surprisingly long time to solidify. A layer of dry air several miles above the surface being pulled into Michael from the west may have been one of the factors that kept Michael from sustaining a classic, fully closed eyewall (see embedded tweet below). A closed eyewall is normally a prerequisite for a hurricane to intensify robustly, but somehow Michael managed to reach Category 3 status without one. READ MORE
Hurricane Michael upgraded to Category 4 storm
FROM FOX 5: Hurricane Michael has intensified even further late Tuesday evening. The powerful Category 3 storm continued to be fueled by the warm Gulf of Mexico waters as it trekked toward the Florida Panhandle. Forecasters now believe Michael will be a Category 4 when it makes landfall midday Wednesday.
This isn’t going to be like past western FL panhandle/AL majors like Dennis, Ivan, Opal, Eloise. And it’s not like Hermine, Kate farther east but weaker. #Michael will make new history for central Panhandle, Big Bend. Some of you could get water and wind worse than ever before. pic.twitter.com/5b4AV1c7QR

As of 11 p.m. Tuesday, the top sustained surface winds were at 125 mph, making this a major hurricane. The center of the storm was located about 220 miles south-southwest of Panama City, Fla. or about 200 miles south-southwest of Apalachicola, Fla. Michael was moving north at 12 mph. READ MORE

FROM BREITBART: “We have another one coming, and a big one,” Trump told reporters at the White House. “Much bigger than they anticipated a week ago.” The president said that his administration was “very well prepared” for the category 2 storm predicted to hit Florida on Wednesday.
…Looks to be a Cat. 3 which is even more intense than Florence. Good news is, the folks in the Pan Handle can take care of anything. @FEMA and First Responders are ready – be prepared! #HurricaneMichael
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 9, 2018
He suggested on Twitter that the storm could grow to a Category 3 storm, which would be “even more intense that Florence.”
“FEMA is ready, we’re all ready,” Trump said. “I spoke with Governor Scott, spoke to everybody that you have to speak to.” Trump said that other parts of the storm could hit Georgia and even parts of North Carolina and South Carolina. READ MORE

Infamous Mafia Hitman And Contract Killer Sammy ‘The Bull’ Gravano Believes The Gospel And Gets Saved, Born Again And Water Baptized

Sammy Gravano was in and out of prison long before Bibles Behind Bars was raised up, but every day we give King James Bibles to inmates just like he was
When I first watched the video of Sammy “The Bull” Gravano getting baptized, it brought tears to my eyes and the look on his face absolutely genuine and right in line with what you’d expect to see in a brand-new baby Christian who just got saved. Then I went back to listen to the entire story, and my heart sank a little as I heard Gravano talking about his testimony which, the longer I listened to it, the shakier it got. Then, at 13:02 minutes into the video, paydirt, Sammy said he needed forgiveness and redemption (that’s it!) for the deeds done in his life, and that he acknowledged that Jesus Christ (That’s it again!) was the only place to get it. Praise the Lord, Sammy The Bull got saved! This is one of the reasons why Bibles Behind Bars is so very important in these last days.
“And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.” Acts 22:4 (KJB)
Sammy Gravano was in and out of prison long before Bibles Behind Bars was raised up by the Lord, but hardened criminal inmates just like Gravano are behind bars right now, and if Sammy The Bull can get saved, they can too. To date, we have record of nearly 700 inmates who have gotten saved by believing the gospel and given a Bible from Bibles Behind Bars. 700! And many of them are men just as wicked and as vile as Gravano, just as wicked and vile as you and I were when we came to the Lord to get saved. Right now, the Carson City Correctional Center in Michigan is surrounded by double fences with razor-ribbon wire and two gun towers. Electronic detection systems and patrol vehicles are also utilized to maintain perimeter security. And guess what? Chaplain Lonny there has reached out and asked us for Bibles to give to as many of their 2,300 inmates as we are able to provide. The total for that many Bibles is $8,257.00 if you were wondering. Christian, if we’re not working to see people get saved, then why are we here?
Come help us to send King James Bibles, books and Christian literature to every jail and prison that asks us, and pray the Lord that many more like Sammy The Bull will get saved.

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq Says He Is The Part-Muslim And Part-Jewish Leader That The Bible Calls The Antichrist

Today we introduce you to Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq, the man who says he is the biblical fulfillment of who the Bible says is the Antichrist
According to his web site bio, “Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq (From Him is Peace) is the long awaited Savior of Mankind, the promised Mahdi and Qaim prophesied to come from the narrations of Mohammed and the Family of Mohammed (From Them is Peace). He is the son of Imam Ahmed al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) and the grandson of Imam Mohammed ibn Al-Hassan Al-Askari, Al-Mahdi in the soul world.” If this were to be true, Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq would be the biblical Antichrist. That’s the memo.
“And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.” Micah 5:5 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, a strange thing is going on since the death of the Roman pontifex maximus Francis, it’s like a lid was lifted on the underworld, in the spirit realm, and all sorts of end times devils are bubbling to the surface. Is Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq the biblical Antichrist? Highly likely not, but, that’s not to say that he’s not here to play a part in this ongoing last days drama. One thing is for sure, he’s done a little homework and understands, from the Bible, who and what the actual Antichrist is, and for that reason deserves to come on the NTEB radar. Christian, prophecy is unfolding and fulfilling at such a rapid rate that it’s impossible, without a King James Bible, to keep up with what’s going on, going down and coming up. On this episode, prepare to have your mind blown as we introduce you to Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq. Also, updates from Rome ahead of the funeral service of Pope Francis set for Saturday.

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 don’t have a church where I can have fellowship and teaching, so you have been my teacher for many months now. Thanks God you are there for all of us who have no church to go to. I pray that the Lord will bless you abundantly in your ministry, and your loved ones too. You are such a blessing to me, and many others, in these last days before the rapture.

Bryant Park Baptist Church Has Been In Operation Since 1856, And Last Week Their Pastor Reached Out To Bibles Behind Bars With An Amazing Blessing

Pastor Matt and Bryant Pond Baptist Church in Maine have joined with us at Bibles Behind Bars to help get God’s preserved word out in these last days
We never know where support for Bibles Behind Bars is going to come from next, all we know is that the Lord continues to touch hearts to help us carry out the mission of sending King James Bibles into every jail and prison in America. To date, over 15,000 people have been raised up to stand with us in this end times fight, and we’re so very grateful for that. Today I want to tell you about a tiny church in southern Maine with a pastor and congregation who joined NTEB this month with an unexpected blessing.
“And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.” Acts 16:9 (KJB)
Pastor Matt reached out to us and said “Good afternoon brother Grider. My church (Bryant Pond Baptist Church in Bryant Pond, Maine) is voting on sending you the full amount to buy 500 King James Bibles. I believe the vote will come in unanimous. We were especially touched that Windham, Maine was reaching out to Bibles Behind Bars. God bless you and the work you are doing for the Lord. I will keep you updated.” A week later a check arrived for the full amount needed for the Bibles, $1,795.00, with a note that said in part “We are a small church, average 30 per week, but we have a heart for anybody hungry for the truth of the King James Bible. Please use this money wherever needed.” For the past 5 years, we have witnessed miracle after miracle just like that one, giving us the necessary resources we need to continue to send out free King James Bibles and literature in the hundreds of thousands. Monday, Pastor Daniel at the Maine Correctional Center wrote to thanks us for the Bibles and books that had just been delivered to his facility. This is how God works in these last days to get His preserved word out to the darkest places, and we invite you to come and help us by becoming a part of the Bibles Behind Bars miracle. We need your help to send Bibles to Carson City Correctional in Michigan.
