Sadiq Khan has said Donald Trump is “playing into the hands of Daesh” after appearing to back Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign during his five-day tour of North America.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Why would the anti-Brexit, pro-Sharia Law Muslim of Mayor of London want to come to America to help campaign for Hillary Clinton? Because the pro-migrant globalists like George Soros who back her told him to, that’s why. Talk about a revealing endorsement, yikes.
“We play straight into the hands of those who seek to divide us, of extremists and terrorists around the world, when we imply that it is not possible to hold Western values and to be a Muslim,” Mr Khan said.
Mr Khan did not mention Donald Trump by name but attacked the positions the New York developer has staked on Muslim immigration into the United States.
“It only makes it harder to build integrated and cohesive communities and it makes it easier for terrorists to radicalise our young people, making us less safe, whether in the USA, France or Britain, because it’s dividing rather than uniting and because it builds walls to keep us apart rather than bridges to bring us together,” said the Mayor.
Immediately after taking office in May, Mr Khan was involved in a spat with Mr Trump over his call for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the US, deriding the plan as “ignorant.”
Mr Khan said that it’s not for him to “get involved in a presidential election in another country,” however, he described himself as “a big fan” of Mrs Clinton and said that he hoped she would win the presidential election in November.
“She’s arguably the most experienced candidate to run to be the president,” Mr Khan told reporters following the speech to more than 250 academics, diplomats and business people.
“As the father of two daughters, I think the message it sends when the most powerful politician in the world is a woman is phenomenal, and hope she wins,” said Mr Khan, who as London’s first Muslim mayor is arguably one the most influential member of his faith in western Europe.
Earlier on Thursday, the London mayor addressed a global progress summit in Montreal with Justin Trudeau, the Canadian prime minister.
In Montreal, he criticised Mr Trump in even stronger terms:
“Donald Trump said that Muslims from around the world – I’m paraphrasing – would not be welcome into the United States of America.
“Not only does that show a lack of understanding and awareness of the great country that is the USA and its history and legacy, it’s also inadvertently playing into the hands of Daesh and so-called Isis because it implies it’s not possible to be a Western liberal and mainstream Muslim.
“I think it’s important that the USA maintains her role as a beacon for tolerance, respect and diversity. “I think it’s important for those of us who are foreigners to stay out of the US elections. I hope the best candidate wins and I hope she does win with a stomping majority.”
Mr Khan said he would be open to meeting Mr Trump during his trip, along with any other presidential candidate. During the summit Mr Khan stressed the importance of integrating ethnic minority communities, telling the audience that “the days of laissez-faire” integration were gone.
“The messages of hate being transmitted into people’s bedrooms means that people like Justin, the prime minister of Canada, and people like me, the mayor, have a responsibility,” he said.
Mr Khan also said he believed the UK should follow Canada’s lead and do more to help Syrian refugees.
The mayor told Mr Trudeau: “You are a beacon of how a civilised G7 country should treat those who are vulnerable and need help.” Mr Khan’s five-day tour of North America is aiming to show the capital is “open for business” in the wake of Britain’s decision to leave the European Union.
During his visit to New York, the mayor will be introduced to Major League Baseball commissioner, Rob Manfred, to discuss plans to bring games to London and throw the first pitch at a New York Mets game.
He will also visit the Clinton Global Initiative during its annual meeting, where he is expected be joined on stage by Chelsea Clinton. source
The Gospel Of John Opens In Eternity Past To Reveal Jesus Christ As God Manifest In The Flesh And The Only Saviour For Lost Sinners
The Gospel of John opens not in Bethlehem, not in Nazareth, not with Mary or Joseph, but in eternity past: “In the beginning was the Word.” John does not begin with the cradle, he begins with the Godhead. Matthew presents Jesus as King, Mark as Servant, Luke as the Son of man, but John presents Him as God manifest in the flesh. That is the battleground. Every cult, every false religion, every counterfeit Bible, and every antichrist spirit eventually attacks the deity of Jesus Christ. John answers them before they even speak: the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”John 1:1 (KJB)
On this episode of Rightly Dividing, John’s Gospel is built around belief. The word “believe” appears again and again because John is pressing the reader toward a verdict. You are not allowed to casually admire Jesus in this book. You must decide who He is. Is He merely a teacher, prophet, healer, revolutionary, or religious example? John says no. He is the eternal Word, the Creator, the Light, the Lamb of God, the Bread of life, the Good Shepherd, the Resurrection, the Way, the Truth, and the Life. John strips away religious fog and brings the sinner face to face with the only Saviour God has provided. A verse-by-verse study through John should constantly point out how the book divides between light and darkness, belief and unbelief, life and death, truth and religious blindness. The Pharisees had Scripture, temple worship, priesthood, sacrifice, feast days, and religious authority — yet they rejected the very Messiah standing in front of them. That is one of John’s sharpest warnings. Religion without the new birth is still darkness. Nicodemus was a master of Israel, but Jesus told him plainly, “Ye must be born again.” The woman at the well had a ruined past, but she received living water. The religious ruler needed regeneration just as much as the fallen Samaritan woman did. This is Part #1 in our brand-new series of the Gospel of John.

Your Generous Donations Make These Live King James Radio Bible Studies Possible!
On our Sunday and Wednesday night radio bible study, we are preaching and teaching the gospel of the grace of God, rightly divided and dispensationally correct, to a truly global audience who is hungry for the word. These programs would not be possible without your generous support. Listen to just a few of the recent comments we have gotten:
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.
Listen to what our donation angels have to say about the ministry of Now The End Begins
“You are truly an end time ministry and I appreciate how our Precious Lord is using you to educate his very own flock. There is a lot of confusion , but your ministry is putting scripture in the right prospective. Thank-you so so much Geoffrey S Grider for standing firm and putting in a lot of hours of your time. God Bless You , also your Ministry and your family. IN JESUS MIGHT NAME.” T. Muto
“Jesus. I am now 64 years old and never in all the years I’ve been a Christian was I able to grow in the Lord as much as I have in the last past year. All because of our blessed brother’s work Geoffrey Grider who as the bravery of standing fast forward without fear of claiming the truth of God by the power of his love in Jesus Christ. May God bless you abundantly to the end my dear brother… ROMANS: 8: 36,37,38” Mireille Anderson
“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 really enjoy the emails and Bible studies! I haven’t found a church and enjoy your services very much! Be blessed brother!” Marcia Mann
“You and your organization are on the front lines in the Battle For Truth…. current events, end times, and trying to awaken a sleeping laodicean Church. Thank you brother for fighting for us and all your teaching and insight God bless…” Daniel Cartrette
“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
This is the official gospel tract of NTEB, used here on the streets of Saint Augustine and sent around the world as they are purchased through our website. We ask you to prayerfully consider supporting the work of Now The End Begins by purchasing a box of these full-color, high-quality gospel tracts. Thank you in advance!
But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!

On this Sunday Service, God is looking for believers with a willing heart, burdened and surrendered, that will pick up their cross daily and follow Him
The Lord is not looking for cold religion, empty profession, or outward performance from people whose hearts are far from Him. He is looking for a believer with a willing heart, a heart that says, “Lord, here am I, use me.” In Exodus 35, the Tabernacle was not built by pressure tactics or forced giving, but by men and women whose hearts were stirred and made willing before the LORD. That is still the pattern today. The believer who has been saved by the shed blood of Jesus Christ ought to have a heart that is ready to serve, ready to give, ready to labour, ready to pray, ready to witness, and ready to stand in the gap while there is still time. A willing heart does not wait to be begged, bribed, or entertained into obedience. It hears the voice of God through the word of God and responds, “What wilt thou have me to do?”
“Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass,”Exodus 35:5 (KJB)
But a willing heart must become a burdened heart and a surrendered heart, or it will never go the distance. A burdened heart looks at the lost and sees souls on their way to Hell without the gospel, and it refuses to be comfortable while sinners perish. A surrendered heart looks inward and says, “Lord, deal with my sin, my pride, my flesh, my worldliness, and anything that keeps me from being meet for the Master’s use.” This is where real Bible Christianity lives — not in slogans, not in sentiment, not in Sunday-morning religion, but in a heart yielded to God, burdened for souls, and willing to fight against the world, the flesh, and the Devil until the Lord gives the victory. The harvest is still white, the gospel is still powerful, the King James Bible is still the preserved word of God, and Jesus Christ is still saving sinners. What God is looking for now is a vessel with a willing heart to serve, a burdened heart to seek the lost, and a surrendered heart to yield completely to Him. This is my message on today’s Sunday Service.
SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: A Willing Heart, Burdened And Surrendered
A Willing Heart, Burdened And Surrendered
I. A Willing Heart Says, “Lord, I Am Ready To Serve”
“Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass,”Exodus 35:5 (KJB)
Before the gold, silver, and brass ever showed up, there first had to be a people whose hearts were willing before the LORD. The tabernacle was not built by force, pressure, guilt, or manipulation. It was built by people who had a heart to give, a heart to serve, and a heart to be part of what God was doing. How’s your heart today?
“Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the LORD put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had commanded.”Exodus 36:1 (KJB)
“And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD’s offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments.”Exodus 35:21 (KJB)
Bible passages talking about The Tabernacle:
This is one of the largest themes in the Bible, so it must be very important to God. God wanted willing hearts to do this work, not robots.
“Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.”Isaiah 6:8 (KJB)
Exodus 25–31, 35–40 — 13 chapters
Leviticus 1–10, 16 — 11 chapters
Numbers 1–4, 7–10 — 8 chapters
Joshua 18 — 1 chapter
1 Samuel 1–4 — 4 chapters
1 Kings 8 / 2 Chronicles 5 — 2 chapters
Hebrews 8–10 — 3 chapters
Application
The believer with a willing heart does not have to be begged to serve the Lord. He does not have to be chased down, guilted into obedience, or constantly stirred up by emotional appeals. When the heart is right, the feet move, the hands labor, the mouth speaks, and the wallet opens.
A willing heart says, “Lord, I am available. Use my time, use my talent, use my testimony, use my treasure, and use whatever is left of my life for Thy glory.”
Key Point
A willing heart is the difference between religious duty and spiritual desire for intimacy with God. God is not a Calvinist, he will not force you to serve Him, even after He saves you. But you’ll spend a long time needlessly fighting the conviction He will give you if you aren’t willing.
II. A Burdened Heart Says, “Lord, I Want To See The Lost Saved”
A willing heart serves, but a burdened heart weeps. A burdened heart looks at a lost and dying world and sees what God sees: souls without Christ, sinners without hope, and men and women headed for Hell unless someone brings them the gospel. (Bibles Behind Bars!)
Paul had doctrine, but he also had tears. He was not some cold theologian stacking up truth with no compassion. He had a burning burden for his own people to be saved. If you’ve been called to the ministry but don’t have a burden like this, you should make sure you’ve actually been called of God. Without such a burden, ministry is an exhausting and grueling slog. With a God-sent burden, it’s the most exciting work on the planet.
“Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.”Romans 10:1 (KJB)
“I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.”Romans 9:1-2 (KJB)
The Lord Jesus Christ Himself looked on the multitudes with compassion.
“But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.”Matthew 9:36 (KJB)
Application
The believer needs more than correct doctrine and a King James Bible; he needs a broken heart. He needs to see the lost not as arguments to win, but as souls to reach. A burdened heart prays, witnesses, gives, supports missions, sends Bibles, preaches the gospel, and refuses to become comfortable while sinners perish. Someone asked me one time why do you go street preaching? The answer is astonishingly simple: because Hell is real and people go there. No other reason than that to street preach, wins souls and do personal work.
A burdened heart says, “Lord, break my heart for what breaks Yours. Let me care about souls more than comfort, more than convenience, more than reputation, and more than self.”
Key Point
A burdened heart turns Bible truth into gospel action.
III. A Surrendered Heart Says, “Lord, I Am Willing To Lay It Down”
God likes to do things in threes:
Jesus is the way, the truth and the life
The Christian fights against the world, the flesh and the Devil
Peter denied the Lord 3 times
Jesus is a Prophet, Priest and King
The Tabernacle was divided into the outer court, the Holy Place and the most Holy Place
Jonan was 3 days and 3 nights in the whale’s belly
Jesus Christ died, was buried and rose again (Paul’s gospel)
The Godhead exists in 3 parts 1 John 5:7
Man is a tripartite being (body, soul and spirit)
A willing heart serves the Lord, and a burdened heart seeks the lost, but a surrendered heart takes God’s side against sin. It is one thing to say, “Lord, use me,” and another thing to say, “Lord, cleanse me.” The believer cannot serve the Lord rightly while making peace with the world, the flesh, and the Devil. D.L. Moody said “There is one more thing to consider. I have to overcome the world, or the world is going to overcome me. I have to conquer sin in me and get it under my feet, or it is going to conquer me.” That’s good, practical preaching you can live by.
“Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.”Romans 6:13 (KJB)
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”James 4:7 (KJB)
“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.”Romans 12:1 (KJB)
Application
The surrendered heart is not sinless perfection, but honest submission. It is the believer coming before God and saying, “Lord, deal with my pride, my bitterness, my temper, my lust, my worldliness, my laziness, my fear, my rebellion, and anything else that keeps me from walking with You.”
“Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.”Romans 7:13 (KJB)
This is where real victory begins. Not with pretending there is no battle, but by yielding to God and refusing to yield to sin.
Key Point
A surrendered heart does not negotiate with sin; it yields to God until the victory comes. At AA meetings they say you must conduct a “fearless and searching moral inventory” if you want to stay sober, and the same thing can be said of the believer who wants to be clean before God. Keep short accounts with the Lord.
IV. These Three Hearts Work Together
Truth
These are not three separate Christian lives. They are three parts of the same surrendered believer.
A willing heart says, “Lord, I will serve.”
A burdened heart says, “Lord, I will witness.”
A surrendered heart says, “Lord, I will obey.”
When these three are present, God has a vessel He can use.
“But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.”2 Timothy 2:20-21 (KJB)
Application
Many believers want to be used, but they don’t want to be purged. Many want fruit, but they do not want surrender. Many want blessing, but they do not want separation. But the vessel fit for the Master’s use is the believer who is willing, burdened, and surrendered.
God is not looking for perfect people. He is looking for yielded people.
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.”John 15:1-5 (KJB)
Closing Challenge
The question is not whether the Lord has work to be done. The harvest is still ready, the gospel is still powerful, the Bible is still true, Hell is still hot, the Lord Jesus Christ is still saving sinners, and the trumpet is still about to sound.
The question is: what kind of heart do you have?
Do you have a willing heart to serve?
Do you have a burdened heart for the lost?
Do you have a surrendered heart to forsake sin and fight the good fight?
“Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.”Isaiah 6:8 (KJB)
That is the heart God can use in these last days: not a forced heart, not a cold heart, not a divided heart, but a willing heart, a burdened heart, and a surrendered heart before the Lord Jesus Christ.
Now The End Begins is your front line defense against the rising tide of darkness in the last Days before the Rapture of the Church

From A Troubled Past To A True Gospel Ministry Opportunity, Allegheny County Jail Requests King James Bibles For Inmates Hungry For Hope And Truth
The Allegheny County Jail in Pittsburgh has been through a lot. Over the past few years, it has made headlines for all the wrong reasons — deaths in custody, allegations of poor medical care, staffing shortages, lockdowns, and conditions that have brought intense public scrutiny. But in 2025, new leadership came in with a mandate to change the atmosphere, improve conditions, and begin turning the page on a troubled past. Part of that change would seem to be the bringing in of King James Bibles for as many of their 2,000 inmates as we can handle.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJB)
This request from Chaplain Marmo at the Allegheny County Jail is a tremendous opportunity, think about it. They contacted us and asked for the Book. That means they are opening the prison doors for the word of God to go behind the walls, past the checkpoints, through the locked doors, and into the hands of inmates behind the bars who desperately need light in a dark place. We may never stand inside that jail and preach to those inmates face to face, but we can absolutely put a King James Bible in their hands. Allegheny County Jail is trying to move forward from a troubled past under new leadership. But what those inmates really need most is not merely a better institution around them — they need new life in Christ within them. Help us answer this request. Help us send the King James Bible into Allegheny County Jail in Pittsburgh. Help us put the Book in the hands of people who may be locked up physically, but who can still be made gloriously free in Jesus Christ. Come help us send 500 King James Bibles to Allegheny, they need you and we need you!!

When you contribute to this fundraising effort, you are helping us to do what the Lord called us to do. The money you send in goes primarily to the overall daily operations of this site. When people ask for Bibles, we send them out at no charge. When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.
But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!
