The Kobe System and the connection to the Illuminati and the occult

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

I found all the proof necessary, and then some, to make the case that Kobe Bryant was a hardcore Illuminati member, as well as having strong ties to satanism, and his Kobe System will prove that to you.

Kobe Bryant was a man driven to success, you might also say he was a man possessed as well. I am not a huge basketball fan, so I only knew of him when seeing some game he played in when he was still active, or in a passing news byte of his time after. I honestly had no idea about the mega-empire known as the Kobe System, since his death I’ve discovered it, but even to my “seen it all” eyes it was jarring and shocking. It was the belly of the beast, and Kobe would be the first person to agree with me.

“Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:1,4,5 (KJB)

The first few videos I watched of the Kobe System from Nike had by jaw literally dropping the entire time. Everywhere I looked I saw that his brand was built the image of the deadly black snake known as the Black Mamba. An association and comparison that Kobe Bryant welcome and promoted. I saw his logo, which is a stylized icon of a snake head, and also in line with the image of Baphomet, Satan, which we see in connection with the Knights Templar, the Illuminati, Freemasonry and satanism.

Believe me when I tell you I was dumbfounded at seeing all this, I thought there is no way this can be real, it has to be some sick joke. That’s why I didn’t write about it immediately, I had to be a good Berean and search the truth out for myself. I found all the proof necessary, and then some, to make the case that Kobe Bryant was a hardcore Illuminati member, as well as having strong ties to satanism, and certainly lots of associations with Freemasons like Shaq and Tony Robbins.

Look at the main image at the top of this article, you will immediately notice a snake’s threatening head. Upon closer inspection, it is a pair of Nike Kobe System 8 sneakers put together with other graphics to complete the image of a coiled snake. Look closed and you will see the Illuminati triangle as the main logo icon for the Kobe System, and a winged opening at top that we will explain in the videos below. Everywhere you look in the Kobe System branding you will see images connected to the Illuminati, satanism and Freemasonry.

We ask you to watch the handful of videos we have included below. You may have to watch them two or three times to understand what you are truly seeing, and you may or may not agree with all of the conclusions presented there, but you will agree with most of them, absolutely. The marketing and branding created by Kobe Bryant and his team for the Nike Kobe System is a veritable treasure trove, the mother lode if you will, of all things unholy and occultic.

NOTE: I have placed these videos in this order for a specific reason, and ask that you watch them in their entirety without skipping ahead. If you do that, you will have a complete and full understanding of how Kobe Bryant and his Kobe System is connected to the Illuminati and the occult.

#1: Professional Sports And Their Connection To The Occult

This is a good video to start on to gain an understanding of what the massive sports complex that controls so much of our time and behavior is really all about. You will never look at professional sports in the same way again. After watching this you will have a much better understanding of the Kobe System. GRAPHIC WARNING: parts of this video will show you sport stars trapped in MK Ultra disassociation freezes, and it is quite unsettling. Do not allow children to watch this.

#2: The Kobe System And Its Connection To The Illuminati

In these next two videos, you will see the meaning and symbolism behind the logo and branding used in the Kobe System. 100% Illuminati all the way, with liberal sprinklings of satanism and the occult thrown in for good measure. You will see the meaning behind the man/woman chalice triangle in the Kobe System logo, and its connection to the occult. You will also see snakes, lots and lots of black snakes.

#3: Kobe Bryant Illuminati Commercial, Ties To Satan Exposed

Now, after having watched the previous videos and in order, you are now ready to see to all come together. The Kobe Bryant 666 Workout, yes, that’s what he really called it, and his complete connection with 666.

#4: The Saddest Video Of Them All

Much was made of the fact that Kobe Bryant was a ‘strong catholic‘, and as far as I could see he was. But being a good Catholic is not the same as being a born again Christian who knows where they are going when they die, and in fact, welcome it. Kobe had no idea where he was going when he died, as you will hear him say in his own words. Sadly, there is only one type of person who doesn’t know where they’re going when they die, lost people. Don’t die lost like Kobe did, click here to see how you can know you’re headed for Heaven when you die.

Just In Time For Resurrection Sunday, A New Gospel Witness Billboard Proclaiming Salvation Through The Shed Blood Of Jesus Christ On The Cross Goes Up

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

On this Resurrection weekend, NTEB is proclaiming new life through the shed blood of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world

The NTEB Gospel Witness Billboard Program continues going at full-speed ahead here in its sixth year of operation, proclaiming new life in Jesus Christ with a message that takes less than 3 seconds to read while traveling past it at an average of 60 miles per hour. We are working on one right now that will go up somewhere in Tennessee shortly, please pray for that, and this one you see in the photo at the top of this article that went up yesterday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

“In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” Ephesians 1:7 (KJB)

If you don’t believe that we live in a lost and dying world that has rejected Jesus Christ, just go read today’s headlines for 60 seconds and you will. But it is into this fallen world that Jesus Christ first appeared, and it is into this fallen world that we who are His witnesses are called to bear witness to the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus on the third day according to the scriptures. Our billboards over the past six years have generated more than a billion views, and only the Judgment Seat of Christ will reveal just what manner of fruit was gained through this outreach. Please pray for the Gorzell family at Broken Pieces Ministries whom we partner with in this billboard, that the Lord will give them fruit, more fruit and much fruit for their labours.

How about you, Christian? Will you come and partner with all of us here at Now The End Begins to keep these billboards up? It costs thousands of dollars per month to do it, and we reach millions of people in the process. If God has prospered you, prayerfully consider clicking on the donate link to help us. We can’t do it without you.

Showing Themselves To Be Neither ‘Decimated’ Nor ‘Obliterated’, Iran Shoots Down American Aircraft At Will As World War Trump Takes A Dark New Turn

Neither decimated nor obliterated, Iran downs American warplanes and exposes the lie that this widening World War Trump is under control

For weeks now, the American people have been told that Iran was “decimated” and “obliterated,” that its ability to resist had been shattered, and that overwhelming force had already reduced the enemy to rubble. But now the battlefield is answering back with a very different testimony. AP reported Friday that two U.S. military aircraft were shot down as the war escalated, including an F-15E over Iran with one crew member rescued and another still missing. The Washington Post likewise reported that a second U.S. aircraft, an A-10, was also brought down, even as American rescue operations intensified. That is not what “obliterated” looks like. Today marks the single worst day for World War Trump since the conflict began. It only gets worse from this point on, so buckle up.

“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1 (KJB)

As the skies darken overseas, the Pentagon is being thrown into visible turmoil at home. AP reported yesterday that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth asked Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George to step down and also dismissed two other generals, adding to a broader pattern of removals among senior military leadership during this widening war. That is what makes this moment so dangerous. America is now watching a war grow more costly and less predictable at the exact same time that the military chain of command is being shaken at the top. Iran is proving it can still strike, still contest the fight, still bloody American power, while Hegseth is purging senior officers in the middle of a regional firestorm. That is not stability. That is not control. That is not confidence. That is a government trying to project strength while the structure underneath it visibly trembles. This is why a Fox News host is not fit to run the Pentagon.

Trump: “We’re flying wherever we want. Nobody is even shooting at us”

Iran: hits US F-15E jet, hits US A-10 plane, forces both F-16 and KC-135 into emergency landings.

What we are seeing is the same old lie that has dragged nations into disaster for generations. First comes the boasting. Then comes the inflated language. Then comes the media chorus repeating that victory is assured, the enemy is broken, and the situation is under control. But war has a way of stripping the paint off every official narrative. Jets fall. Men go missing. Rescue missions are launched. The enemy everyone said was finished keeps fighting. And suddenly all the slogans Trump has been feeding his base don’t sound so convincing anymore.

Hegseth’s role in this only sharpens the sense of disorder. You do not fire top generals in the middle of a shooting war and then expect the public to believe everything is proceeding calmly and according to plan. Maybe the administration calls it accountability. Maybe it calls it reform. But from the outside, it looks like upheaval at the summit while the battlefield below grows hotter by the hour. AP says more than a dozen military leaders have been removed in the past year under Hegseth’s tenure. By any fair standard of reckoning, that’s a purge.

The truly maddening part is that none of this should surprise anybody paying attention. Iran was never going to absorb repeated blows and simply disappear. A regime with missiles, air defenses, regional reach, hardened infrastructure, and ideological resolve was never going to be erased by chest-thumping rhetoric and triumphant press lines. The fantasy was always political. The reality is military. And now the military reality is tearing through the political fantasy in front of the whole world. AP has already reported other Iranian strikes during this war, including an attack on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia that wounded U.S. troops and damaged aircraft.

So yes, it’s safe to say that this war has taken a dark turn, a very dark turn.

Iran has shown itself to be neither “decimated” nor “obliterated.” It is battered, yes. Pressured, yes. Under attack, yes. But it is still capable of inflicting damage, still capable of challenging American power, and still capable of exposing how hollow the original boasts were. And while that reality unfolds abroad, Pete Hegseth is remaking the Department of War through abrupt removals that only deepen the impression of a war machine under strain.

The message from Washington is strength, command, and dominance, but the message from events is something very different: this thing is slipping, the cost is rising, the leadership is unstable, and the promises made at the beginning are already being swallowed by the flames. That is the dark turn. And once the official story can no longer survive contact with reality, the next thing to die is trust.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: The Evangelical Industrial Complex That Put Donald Trump Back In Power Is Rapidly Coming Apart At The Seams

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Evangelical Industrial Complex is not biblical Christianity, it is a 7 Mountains Mandate power grab conducted at the highest levels in the Trump White House

What we have been watching for the past 15 months is not revival, it’s not repentance, and it certainly is not a return to biblical New Testament Christianity under the apostle Paul. It is a political-religious machine, a power network dressed up in patriotic language, cross symbolism, culture-war rhetoric, and celebrity access. Welcome to the Evangelical Industrial Complex, the ‘crown jewel’ of the falling away.

“I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:” Revelation 2:2 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Trump’s second White House formally established a White House Faith Office in February 2025, and then created a Religious Liberty Commission in May 2025. Franklin Graham was named as one of the commission members, and the White House also announced advisory-board appointments tied to that same commission. The Evangelical Industrial Complex surrounding Trump is a blended coalition of evangelical celebrity, political access, Roman Catholic symbolism, nationalist messaging, and media-stage religion. Erika Kirk now leads Turning Point USA, and Trump appointed her to the U.S. Air Force Academy Board of Visitors. Jack Posobiec was photographed holding up a rosary while speaking at Charlie Kirk’s memorial in September 2025. Pete Hegseth publicly described his Jerusalem cross tattoo as a “historic Christian symbol,” while coverage of the controversy also notes his “Deus vult” tattoo, a phrase tied historically to the Roman Catholic Crusades. Yesterday, the White House quickly deleted a video of Trump’s spiritual advisor Paula White comparing his presidency to the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ that quickly sparked outrage all across social media. Today we break it all down for you, plus give you the very latest updates on World War Trump happening now in the Middle East.

I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love.
