On July 14, 1555, Pope Paul IV issued his bull “Cum nimis absurdum,” which subjected the Jews under his dominion to a long list of restrictions and humiliations, most notably the requirement that the Jews of Rome live within a closed area. This became the Rome Ghetto, the mandatory home of the city’s Jews until its abolishment in 1870.

This story is fascinating for a variety of reasons, one especially from a numerical perspective. Today is the 465th anniversary of the day that the Roman Catholic Pope Paul IV issued his infamous papal decree forcing all the Jews of Rome into a ghetto. It is for reasons just like this why we say that the Roman Catholic religion is not Christian, and is not biblical, if it were, the Roman Catholic popes would love the Jews, which clearly they do not. Secondly, let’s take a look at the year 1555.

“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 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 11:25-27 (KJB)

In the bible, 5 is the number of death. Lucifer was the 5th covering cherub, Jesus had 5 bleeding wounds, David had 5 smooth stones to kill Goliath and his 4 brothers, Adam lost his 5th rib to create Eve, and the list goes on and on. But to have a year with triple 5’s and a Roman Catholic pope like Pope Paul IV ordering Jews into a ghetto, that is prophetic. God warned the Jews that, because of their disobedience to Him, they would be “scattered to the four corners” of the world and be trodden down of their enemies. God told them they would be hunted down as the prophet Jeremiah warned.

“Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes.” Jeremiah 16:16,17 (KJB)

The Jewish people have no bigger enemy than any Roman pope over the last 1,700 years. Pope Paul IV, in a stunning prefiguring of Adolf Hitler, rounded up the Jews and forced them into ghettos. And speaking of Hitler, he was a ‘triple 5’ man as well, take a look.

1555: Roman Catholic Pope Paul IV Orders Jews to Live in a Ghetto

FROM HAARETZ: Pope Paul IV (1476-1559) was an unusually rigid and intolerant pontiff. He had been the leading figure in the establishment of a Roman Inquisition in 1542 (the papal bull that created the Inquisition stated, “Even if my own father were a heretic, I would gather the wood to burn him”), and had overseen the burning of the Talmud in Rome in 1553.

Less than two months after his ascent to the papacy on May 23, 1555, he issued “Cum nimis absurbum” – meaning literally, “Because it is completely senseless ” After those opening words, the proclamation continues: “and inappropriate to be in a situation where Christian piety allows the Jews (whose guilt — all of their own doing — has condemned them to eternal slavery) access to our society and even to live among us” before laying a long and detailed list of restrictions on Jewish life.

The first in the list of rules was one requiring all Jews in any given town to live in a single district, which was to be enclosed with a wall, and locked at night. The Jews were not allowed to own any property in the ghetto, and were permitted to have but a single synagogue for prayer. Any others that existed at the time of the promulgation of the bull were to be destroyed. Jews were obligated to identify themselves with a yellow head-covering. Professionally, they were limited to the rag trade, unless they were trained physicians, in which case they were forbidden from tending to Christians. They were also prohibited from working on Sundays or on Christian feast days, among other restrictions.

The Roman Ghetto was established on the banks of the Tiber river, one of the least desirable sections of the city, if only because of its tendency to flood when the river’s waters rose. The Jews, who had their own dialect, called Giudeo-romanesco, had to finance its construction, which was designed by architect Giovanni Sallustio Peruzzi. Initially, it could be entered or departed by only two gates, although by the time the walls were demolished, in the 19th century, that number had increased to eight. Since the area of the ghetto could not expand, the only way to add living space was to build up, to as high as seven stories. This helped to block the sun, making the ghetto a dark space.

On the positive side, Christian landlords could not evict their Jewish tenants, nor could they raise rents. At the same time, the Jews were required to go through an annual ritual by which they requested permission to reside in the ghetto, a privilege for which they also had to pay a tax. Before that procedure was instituted, the Jews had to participate as performers in an annual carnival of humiliation.

The abolishment of the Roman Ghetto took place over a period of nearly a century, beginning with the brief period in 1798-99 when the Papal States were overtaken by the Italian Republic. Again in the mid-1800s, there was a period when Jews were permitted to live outside the ghetto, but this too was temporary. Finally, in 1882, 12 years after the final abolition of the Papal States, the ghetto, the last remaining one in Europe, was formally abolished and its walls torn down. READ MORE

The Roman Ghetto was established as a result of Papal bull Cum nimis absurdum, promulgated by Pope Paul IV on 14 July 1555. The bull also required the Jews of Rome, which had existed as a community since before Christian times and which numbered about 2,000 at the time, to live in the ghetto. The ghetto was a walled quarter with three gates that were locked at night. The wall was built under the direction of the architect Giovanni Sallustio Peruzzi. The money for its construction — 300 scudi — had to be paid by the Jewish community. The area of Rome chosen for the ghetto was the most undesirable quarter of the city, subject to constant flooding by the Tiber River. At the time of its founding, the four-block area was expected to contain roughly 1,000 inhabitants.

HUH?? In Just A Matter Of Months, Donald Trump Goes From Humiliating Zelensky At The White House To Becoming His Partner In Drone Warfare Production

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky are considering a ‘mega deal’ that would see the US buy battlefield-tested Ukrainian drones in exchange for Kyiv agreeing to buy a swath of weapons from America, the Ukrainian leader said.

It was only a few months ago when President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance invited Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky to the White House for the sole purpose of publicly humiliating him on live television. Then Trump tried to push through an untimely peace to the Russia Ukraine war by siding with Putin and forcing Zelensky to accept terms negotiated without his input. That was then, this is now, and now Trump has come back to Zelensky, tail between his legs, asking Ukraine to give America drone technology we don’t currently possess? This is not simply theater, this is the theater of the absurd in the extreme. That’s the memo.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJB)

Do you ever get tired of watching all this Deep State and New World Order nonsense? I sure do. It doesn’t fool me for a second, I have a King James Bible to show me the truth, but it does wear me out nearly to the point of exhaustion. As for Donald Trump, you have to come to one of two conclusions. Either he is just flailing about, doing whatever pops into his head at the moment no matter how crazy and contradictory it may be, or, he is taking orders from the Deep State who tagged his right ear with a warning shot last July in Butler, PA. Maybe a little of both, but I will say this much. If the idea that the United States has to come crawling to tiny, little Ukraine for drone technology we don’t have, but they do, doesn’t set off every red flag and alarm bell in your brain, there is something very, very wrong.

Trump discussing drone ‘mega deal’ with Ukraine — as US tech lags behind adversaries: ‘The people of America need this technology’

FROM THE NY POST: Speaking exclusively with The Post on Wednesday, Zelensky revealed that his latest talks with Trump focused on a breakthrough deal that would see the US and Ukraine prop up each other’s aerial technology — with Kyiv offering to share everything it’s learned about modern warfare in the three-year conflict with Russia.

The deal could be transformative for the US military and national security, with officials and drone experts warning that America’s technology lags far behind Russia and China, and American soldiers are ill-equipped to use the UAVs or defend against the types of devices being produced by adversaries.

“The people of America need this technology, and you need to have it in your arsenal,” Zelensky told The Post of Ukraine’s latest drones, which have been able to penetrate Russia’s defenses to take out heavy bombers and hit as deep as 800 miles over the border.

“I think this is really a mega deal, a win-win, as they say,” he added.

Back in February, Zelensky was Trump’s punching bag. What changed?

Drone warfare has become the standout method of battle in the Ukraine war, with Moscow and Kyiv trading hundreds of aerial blows a day using the explosives-carrying UAVs. Zelensky, who touted drones as the key tool that has allowed his country to fight back against the Russian invasion for more than three years, offered everything he’s learned while under fire to help the US and NATO prepare for the new generation of war.

“We will be ready to share this experience with America and other European partners,” he said, adding that talks were also underway with Denmark, Norway and Germany.

Experts and officials have sounded the alarm on America’s blind spot when it comes to drone technology and warfare.

“We all know the same thing. We aren’t giving the American war fighter what they need to survive warfare today,” Trent Emeneker, project manager of the Autonomy Portfolio at the military’s Defense Innovation Unit, told the New York Times.

“If we had to go to war tomorrow, do we have what we need? No,” he added.

The issues were made evident in a four-day testing camp held last month in Alaska by the defense department, which saw soldiers and private contractors repeatedly crash and fail to take down prototype drones, The Times reported. Some of the drones failed to launch altogether, and one of the drones that could fly ended up hitting the wrong target.

The potential “mega deal” also comes as US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth issued a new order to “cut red tape” on US drone production. The Pentagon memo highlighted the need for the US to keep pace as military drone production skyrockets around the world. READ MORE

NTEB To Help Sponsor ‘Backpack And School Supplies Drive’ To Benefit The Children And Community Impacted By The Guadalupe River Flood In Texas

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

NTEB to supply Victory Baptist Church in Kerrville, Texas, with resources needed for 400 back-to-school backpacks filled with King James Bibles and supplies

The floodwaters that roared through Kerrville, Texas, took the nation by storm as we watched incredible devastation especially at Camp Mystic Christian girls camp where 27 campers and counsellors perished. We were contacted by Pastor Ed from Ranchero Drive Baptist Church with an urgent request for Bibles and we sent out an opening order of 1,000 KJVs. Yesterday we learned about a local community outreach for the children of flood victims that Pastor Cody from Victory Baptist Church wants to conduct, and we offered to help him to bring it to fruition.

“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19 (KJB)

Victory Baptist Church wants to hold a community day where they will feed anyone and everyone who comes out, as well as handing out 400 back-to-school backpacks filled with school supplies and, of course, a beautiful new King James Bible. But in order to make that happen, they need a little help, and that’s where NTEB’ers come in. After exchanging dozens of messages back and forth with Pastor Cody, NTEB has offered to provide all the school supplies needed in each backpack as well as the Bibles, 400 in all. These are children and teen Bibles, separate from and in addition to the 1,000 adult Bibles we have already sent out. Total cost for all of this is right around $12,500.00, and the resources mentioned here have already been sent, by faith, to supply the need in Kerrville in time for their event on August 9th. This is where you come in, we need your help to cover the cost for all this.

When we started Now The End Begins 16 years ago, never in my wildest imaginings did I ever see a Free Bible Program, much less a Bibles Behind Bars program, and certainly not one where we would be supplying aid, relief and Bibles to assist disaster victims on such a large scale. But this is what the Lord has seen fit to use NTEB to accomplish, and it is so exciting to be “in the game” on this level. Please pray for the Kerrville outreach we are helping Victory Baptist with, pray for Pastor Cody, and pray for healing for all the people who will come on that day for food and much-needed school supplies for their children. If God has prospered you, please click on the donate button to help us with the cost of this mission.

Thank you so much…TO THE FIGHT!!!

This is the Guadalupe River in Kerrville, Texas just a few days ago, 170 people still missing and the need for help is overwhelming.

Conspiracy Theory

Former Mafia Capo Michael Franzese Who Was Locked Up In Same Cell As Jeffrey Epstein Said Suicide Would Have Been ‘Impossible’ To Carry Out

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Mafia boss Michael Franzese who served time in the exact jail cell where Jeffrey Epstein died said it would be ‘impossible’ for the pedophile to have killed himself inside.

Donald Trump could still pull a win out of this tsunami of MAGA opposition over his botched handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, but the clock is not his friend, and as Jack Bauer would say, he is very quickly running out of time to recover the situation. Yesterday, former Mafia capo in the Colombo crime family Michael Franzese, who himself was locked up in the very same cell that Jeffrey Epstein was, said there was no way that Epstein committed suicide, that it would have been categorically impossible, unless he had had a little help. We agree, and that’s the memo.

“And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.” Acts 23:13 (KJB)

One thing is for certain, Donald Trump knows a whole lot more than he is telling, and for whatever his reasons, is choosing to keep it under wraps in the hopes it will all just blow over in the next news cycle. The man we elected to dismantle the Deep State is now the one doing their bidding, is that where we are here on Day 1,948 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve? Mr. President, I’d advise you to choose your next move wisely, you are running out of time.

Former mobster Michael Franzese once jailed in Jeffrey Epstein’s cell says suicide inside would be ‘impossible’

FROM THE NY POST: Michael Franzese — a former Colombo crime family capo — told NewsNation that he spent seven months incarcerated in the cell where Epstein died and that the very architecture and layout of the rooms would not allow somebody to kill themselves like Epstein.

“There’s just no way you are able to commit suicide. There’s just no way,” Franzese said. “There’s no way to hang yourself, there’s nothing from the ceiling, there’s nothing from the bed.”

“You’d have to be a midget, and work really hard to try to hang yourself and I don’t think you could accomplish it,” he added, explaining that there are no fixtures on the ceiling and that beds are generally low to the ground. “You just couldn’t physically do it. It would be almost impossible to do it.”

Despite Franzese’s claims about the cell’s layout, photos from Epstein’s cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center after he died showed a bunk ladder and gridded bars on the window that reached the ceiling. Epstein, 66, hanged himself in his cell in August 2019 as he was being held without bail pending trial on child sex-trafficking charges.

The twisted financier had been placed on suicide watch after an apparent attempt to take his own life behind bars just days earlier. He was moved to a more heavily monitored unit after that, where guards were supposed to regularly check on him. But the guards fell asleep on duty the night Epstein died and later doctored their logbooks to hide it. At the same time, the cameras watching the cellblock apparently malfunctioned and turned off.

Franzese doesn’t buy those stories

“As far as the cameras being off, I haven’t experienced that – I did eight years in prison and I haven’t experienced cameras being broken and a perfect storm of correctional officers not walking those cells,” he told NewsNation.

“I just can’t buy it. I cannot buy it, I’m sorry. And I have no horse in this race other than my experience and the fact that I just couldn’t see it happening,” Franzese continued.

Debate over Epstein’s death — and conspiracy theories about the high-flying sex trafficker’s death — have dominated headlines since the Trump administration announced last week that investigators determined a supposed client list detailing powerful people connected to the pedo never existed. READ MORE

Michael Franzese, a former capo for the Colombo crime family in the 1980s who served time in the exact cell where Jeffrey Epstein died in 2019 rejects the claim that the convicted sex offender died by suicide. He says “there’s no way” that’s possible.
