Liberals Are Pressing Hard To Make Pedophilia Legal In Preparation Of Sharia Law In America
The goal of hardcore Liberals in America is to institute Sharia Law, but before they can do that they have to legalize and normalize pedophilia for Muslims.
The goal of the Muslim Brotherhood and all of its minions, is world domination. That is, to instate Sharia law in every country. We are seeing this in America right now. The Islamization of Dearborn is so blatant, that Americans tread lightly there, and some are in a constant state of fear. We are seeing it in Texas.
UPDATE MAY 20 2019: This article was written exactly 4 years ago today. So where do we stand on the subject of Liberals, Islam, pedophilia and Sharia Law? It’s worse than you might think. True, the Islam-loving Barack Hussein Obama is no longer president, Donald Trump is. But the wheels set in motion during Obama’s presidency remain largely in motion in 2019. In just a few short years, the Democratic Party has gone waaaay to the Left and become Socialist, and already elected two Muslim women to Congress who hate the Jews and hate Israel. The LGBTQ+ is more aggressive than ever, and with each passing day grow closer to adding the ‘P’ for pedophile to their umbrella of protection. Sadly, we have moved closer to what we warned you about in this article, much closer.
Original article from 2015 follows here below:
I know that the greater percentage of readers of NTEB are Christian, and the content of that article was so disgusting – I told people to stop reading if they could not handle knowing what the Muslims do. It’s all from the Qu’ran. Muhammad literally wrote the book on perversion.
I wrote on the practice of Islamic female genital mutilation. I also wrote about grown men having sex or foreplay with girls younger than nine years old. Oh yes! Even the Ayatollah summed up the guidelines of how men are to derive sexual pleasure with young girls and boys according to their book:
“A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate vaginally, but sodomising the child is acceptable. If a man does penetrate and damage the child then, he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl will not count as one of his four permanent wives and the man will not be eligible to marry the girl’s sister… It is better for a girl to marry at such a time when she would begin menstruation at her husband’s house, rather than her father’s home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven.” Tahrirolvasyleh, fourth edition, Qom, Iran, 1990
After reading that, can you understand that men in Islamic culture, consider boys, girls and women to be “property” and not a person. And can you believe that the greatest cheerleaders of these perverts are the liberal press and our liberal politicians? Liberalism IS a mental disorder. I’m convinced of that.
Sharia Law
Ok, now stay with me: The goal of the Muslim Brotherhood and all of its minions, is world domination. That is, to instate Sharia law in every country. We are seeing this in America right now. The Islamization of Dearborn, MI, AKA Dearbornistan, is so blatant, that Americans tread lightly there, and some are in a constant state of fear. We are seeing it in Texas. There are outcries by Americans, but the Islamists are bound and determined to see America with Sharia law in all 50 States.
But in order to achieve this lofty goal of Sharia Law, something MUST be done about those pesky pedophilia laws in every state. Enter NY Times.
“Hey remember when crazy right wingers predicted that gay marriage would lead to legalizing polygamy? Well that happened. Also they predicted that the next step would be to seek the same civil rights protections for pedophiles. And that’s happening in no less a forum than the New York Times which couldn’t find any terrorists to slot into its op-ed page and went with pedophilia instead.
How can you possibly make child rape sympathetic? Liberals always find a way.
Think back to your first childhood crush. Maybe it was a classmate or a friend next door. Most likely, through school and into adulthood, your affections continued to focus on others in your approximate age group. But imagine if they did not.
By some estimates, 1 percent of the male population continues, long after puberty, to find themselves attracted to prepubescent children. These people are living with pedophilia, a sexual attraction to prepubescents that often constitutes a mental illness.
This is so dishonest on so many levels that if boggles the mind. Pedophilia isn’t some sort of delayed development. Like rape, it’s about power. It’s not a mental illness. No more than homosexuality is. Framing it this way suggests that it’s something everyone grows out of.
But this is the liberal playbook.
1. Make evil seem relatable and sympathetic
2. Project its actions as uncontrollable due to persecution
3. Suggest that understanding evil will prevent it from committing more abuses
All three are present here.
A second misconception is that pedophilia is a choice. Recent research, while often limited to sex offenders — because of the stigma of pedophilia — suggests that the disorder may have neurological origins.
Well if it’s not a choice, then it’s not a crime. Men with pedophilia are three times more likely to be left-handed or ambidextrous, a finding that strongly suggests a neurological cause.
Gays are also more likely to be left-handed. But assuming that there’s a neurological cause confuses correlation with causation at best. Without legal protection, a pedophile cannot risk seeking treatment or disclosing his status to anyone for support. He could lose his job, and future job prospects We should make a sitcom to teach people to accept them.

PEDOPHILES ARE NOW CALLING THEMSELVES ‘MINOR ATTRACTED PERSONS’ AND WANT INCLUSION IN LGBTQ MOVEMENT
There’s no question that the extension of civil rights protections to people with pedophilia must be weighed against the health and safety needs of others, especially kids. It stands to reason that a pedophile should not be hired as a grade-school teacher.
Oh, you kidders. Ten years from now they’ll have to hire them or be sued for discrimination. Twenty years later, Disney will punish employees who work in the boy scouts because they won’t let pedophiles become Scoutmasters.
We already saw this movie. We know how it ends.
The direct-threat analysis rejects the idea that employers can rely on generalizations; they must assess the specific case and rely on evidence, not presuppositions. Those who worry that employers would be compelled to hire dangerous pedophiles should look to H.I.V. case law, where for years courts were highly conservative, erring on the side of finding a direct threat, even into the late 1990s, when medical authorities were in agreement that people with H.I.V. could work safely in, for example, food services.
So we shouldn’t worry that courts will force schools to hire pedophiles as teachers because they forced cafeterias to hire workers with HIV?
Arguing for the rights of scorned and misunderstood groups is never popular, particularly when they are associated with real harm. It’s always popular when you’re a liberal. Unlike arguing for the rights of children abused by the liberal victim of the month.
The Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibit discrimination against otherwise qualified individuals with mental disabilities, in areas such as employment, education and medical care. Congress, however, explicitly excluded pedophilia from protection under these two crucial laws.
Okay I’m done. Will the last one still subscribing to the New York Times please use it to clean this up. Now the New York Times chose to run this, but censored McCain’s op-ed when he was running against Obama. That says it all. [1] – source
So you see, this is the newest liberal goal. They must make pedophilia a choice, not a crime! These knuckleheads are so pro Muslim/Sharia law/and Jihad, they are willing to allow these twisted, animalistic perverts, to hurt our children for the sake of their great cause. The liberals are completely duped into believing that the jihadist Muslims love them, because they speak for them.
What a surprise it will be, when the liberal press and politicians are thrown to their knees and hear the words “Submit or die!” All we can do at this point is get on OUR knees and pray to our Lord that He might give America one more chance.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: It’s A Middle East Meltdown As Iran And Its Houthi Proxies Trap Saudi Arabia And Threaten The Entire Global Oil Supply
Middle East Meltdown As Iran And Its Houthi Proxies Trap Saudi Arabia Between Two Strategic Chokepoints And Threaten The Global Oil Supply
The Middle East is not merely changing—it is melting down before our eyes. Iran, battered but not broken by months of American and Israeli attacks, is now reaching for the most powerful weapon it possesses: the ability to choke the flow of oil upon which the global economy depends. Tehran is squeezing the Strait of Hormuz while its Houthi proxies tighten their grip around the Bab el-Mandeb, placing Saudi Arabia between two strategic chokepoints. This is not random retaliation; it is a calculated economic siege designed to make the entire world pay for Washington’s war. Trump’s war with Iran is actually, ironically and paradoxically, making Tehran stronger.
“All these are the beginning of sorrows.” Matthew 24:8 (KJB)
Saudi Arabia believed its East-West pipeline offered protection by allowing its oil to bypass Hormuz and reach the Red Sea. Then Houthi drones struck that pipeline while Houthi fighters seized Perim Island in the middle of the Bab el-Mandeb. Iran’s message could not be clearer: there may be no safe passage, no protected oil route and no corner of the region beyond its reach. The kingdom that once stood as the undisputed giant of global oil exports is now watching its refineries, pipelines, cities and shipping lanes come under attack as crude prices surge and the danger spreads far beyond the battlefield. Every missile launched in Arabia can eventually explode at an American gas pump, grocery store and household budget. Fun fact, the average price of gas here in America is right now $4.31 for regular and $6.23 for diesel. Is that the Golden Age you were expecting, the Golden Age you voted for? But I digress.
President Trump launched this war promising to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program, prevent Tehran from attacking its neighbors and create the conditions for regime change. Instead, Iran has survived, Saudi Arabia has become a primary target, the Houthis are capturing strategic territory, and two of the world’s most important shipping lanes are being dragged toward paralysis. Washington may possess the larger military, but Iran is attempting to seize the greater leverage by placing its hand around the throat of the world economy. The Abraham Accords promised a new Middle Eastern order built upon peace and prosperity; what is emerging instead is war, scarcity, collapsing alliances and desperate nations searching for someone capable of imposing peace.

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: That Stumbling Stone
That Stumbling Stone: Why Jesus Christ Remains An Offence To The Religious, Foolishness To The World And Precious To The Saved As Our Sure Foundation
Today, we are so excited to bring to you, for the first time ever, our Sunday Service morning message and Sunday Night Bible Study combined into a single, 2-hour time of prayer, prayer, preaching and Bible teaching! At the bottom of every article announcing the Sunday Services, you will find all the notes used in the course of the messages and Bible Studies we bring ro you weekly. Today my message and teaching is entitled “That Stumbling Stone’, Jesus of Nazareth.
“Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.” Romans 9:32,33 (KJB)
All through the Bible, Jesus Christ is revealed as That Stumbling Stone—the tried Stone laid by God, the precious Corner Stone, the Stone rejected by the builders and the Rock of offence over which unbelieving men continue to stumble. Israel had been entrusted with the oracles of God and should have recognized its Messiah, yet the builders examined the Stone and cast Him aside. When Pilate presented Jesus Christ alongside a robber, insurrectionist and murderer, the people cried, “Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas.” But the Gentiles were equally guilty: Herod, Pontius Pilate, the Gentiles and the people of Israel gathered together and crucified the Lord of glory. At Calvary, the religious world and the political world united in choosing a guilty criminal over the sinless Son of God. Behold that stumbling Stone!

That Stumbling Stone
“Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.” Romans 9:32,33 (KJB)
Central Truth
The question is not whether a person will encounter this Stone—the question is how he will encounter Him. He will either believe on Jesus Christ and rest upon the Rock of salvation, stumble over Him in unbelief, or ultimately be crushed beneath Him in judgment.
“Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.” Matthew 21:42-45 (KJB)
I. God Promised The Coming Stone
Jesus Christ did not suddenly appear in the New Testament by accident or coincidence. The prophets had already announced that God would lay a precious Stone in Zion.
“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)
Notice how the Stone is described:
- A foundation stone
- A tried stone
- A precious corner stone
- A sure foundation
- A Stone upon whom men must believe
Jesus Christ was tried by Satan, sinners, religious leaders and Roman authorities, yet no fault was found in Him. He is the only foundation capable of carrying the entire weight of God’s plan of redemption.
Truth: God established the foundation; man does not get to choose another one.
Application: Our salvation must rest upon what God has provided, not upon religion, works, sacraments or personal righteousness.
II. Israel Was Entrusted With The Plans
Israel was given the Scriptures, the promises, the covenants, the temple worship and the prophetic signs by which the Messiah could be identified.
“What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision? Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.” Romans 3:1,2 (KJB)
The Jewish rulers were the “builders.” They possessed the architectural plans of prophecy. They studied Moses, David and the prophets. They should have recognized the Stone when He arrived.
But when God presented His chosen Stone, the builders inspected Him and rejected Him.
“The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. This is the LORD’S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.” Psalm 118:22,23 (KJB)
Truth: Possessing the Scriptures does not save anyone who refuses to believe what the Scriptures reveal about Jesus Christ.
Application: Religious knowledge without faith can leave a person standing beside the Corner Stone while remaining completely lost.
III. The Builders Rejected The Stone
Jesus directly identified Himself as the Stone from Psalm 118.
“Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?” Matthew 21:42 (KJB)
After the resurrection, Peter stood before Israel’s rulers and declared that they were the builders who had rejected God’s Stone.
“This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.” Acts 4:11 (KJB)
But their rejection did not overturn God’s purpose. The builders rejected Him, but God made Him the Head of the corner.
Truth: Man’s rejection of Jesus Christ cannot diminish His identity, authority or glory.
Application: Popular opinion does not determine truth. Even when the world refuses Christ, God’s declaration concerning His Son remains unchanged.
IV. The Promised Stone Became A Stumblingstone
The Stone God provided as a foundation became a Stumblingstone to those who approached God through their own righteousness.
“And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.” Isaiah 8:14 (KJB)
Israel stumbled because they sought righteousness through the works of the law instead of receiving God’s righteousness by faith.
Jesus Christ offended their religious pride. They wanted a conquering king, but He first appeared as the Lamb of God. They looked for political deliverance while rejecting the Saviour who came to deliver them from sin.
Truth: The problem was not with the Stone. The problem was the unbelief of those who stumbled over Him.
Application: Jesus Christ still offends the natural man because the gospel declares that man cannot save himself.
V. The Gentiles Also Rejected The Lord Of Glory
Although Israel’s rulers were the builders, the Gentiles joined them in rejecting and crucifying Jesus Christ.
“For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,” Acts 4:27 (KJB)
At Calvary, the religious world and the political world stood together against their Creator. Jew and Gentile, priest and governor, synagogue and empire were united in their rejection of Jesus Christ.
“Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.” 1 Corinthians 2:8 (KJB)
“But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;” 1 Corinthians 1:23 (KJB)
The Jews stumbled over Him, the Gentiles considered Him foolishness, and together they crucified the Lord of glory.
Truth: The cross exposes the guilt of the entire human race.
Application: No nationality, culture, government or religion can claim natural innocence before God. All have sinned, and all must come to God through Jesus Christ.
VI. The World Chose Barabbas Instead Of Jesus
Barabbas was not an innocent political prisoner. He was an insurrectionist, robber and murderer.
“And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.” Mark 15:7 (KJB)
When offered the choice between Barabbas and Jesus, the multitude chose the guilty man.
“And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:” Luke 23:18 (KJB)
What a picture of substitution! The guilty man was released while the innocent Saviour was condemned. Barabbas walked away because Jesus Christ went to the cross in his place. Barabbas represents the choice of the natural man: give us the rebel, the robber and the murderer—but away with the Son of God!
Truth: At Calvary, the innocent One took the place of the guilty.
Application: Every saved sinner is spiritually like Barabbas. We deserved condemnation, but Jesus Christ took our place.
VII. The Rock Was Smitten For Our Salvation
In the wilderness, Israel received life-giving water from a smitten rock.
“Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.” Exodus 17:6 (KJB)
The New Testament identifies that Rock for us:
“And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” 1 Corinthians 10:4 (KJB)
The Rock had to be smitten before the water could flow. Jesus Christ had to be crucified before the living water of salvation could be freely offered to sinners. The crucifixion was not an accident or the defeat of God’s plan. The Lord of glory was smitten so that guilty sinners could live.
Truth: The water flowed because the Rock was smitten.
Application: Salvation flows freely because Jesus Christ bore the judgment our sins deserved.
VIII. Jesus Christ Is The Rock Upon Which The Church Is Built
Peter confessed the identity of Jesus Christ:
“And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Matthew 16:16 (KJB)
Jesus then declared:
“And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18 (KJB)
The Church is not built upon Peter, a sinful and fallible man. It is built upon the Rock—Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God.
“For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 3:11 (KJB)
Truth: Jesus Christ is the Builder, the Rock and the Foundation of His Church.
Application: A church that abandons the preaching of Jesus Christ may retain its building, name and religious ceremonies, but it has abandoned its foundation.
IX. The Rejected Stone Is Now The Chief Corner Stone
The corner stone establishes the position, direction and alignment of the entire building. Everything must be measured against it.
“And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:” Ephesians 2:20,21 (KJB)
The world cast Him aside, but God gave Him the position of supreme importance. Everything in God’s building must align with Jesus Christ.
Truth: Christ is not merely one stone among many; He is the Chief Corner Stone who governs the placement of every other stone.
Application: Our doctrine, worship, preaching, ministry and personal lives must be measured against Jesus Christ and the written word of God.
X. The Stone Is Precious To Those Who Believe
The same Jesus who is offensive to the unbeliever is precious to the believer.
“Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.” 1 Peter 2:7,8 (KJB)
The difference is not in the Stone. Jesus Christ never changes. The difference is in the response:
- The believer rests upon Him.
- The disobedient stumble over Him.
- The religious reject Him.
- The saved consider Him precious.
Truth: What a person thinks of Jesus Christ reveals his spiritual condition.
Application: Is Christ precious to us, or merely familiar to us?
XI. The Rock Of Our Salvation Is The Only Place Of Safety
“The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.” Psalm 18:46 (KJB)
Everything outside Jesus Christ is sinking sand:
- Religion is sand.
- Good works are sand.
- Human government is sand.
- Personal righteousness is sand.
- Money and success are sand.
- Philosophy and education are sand.
“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:” Matthew 7:24 (KJB)
The strength of a house is ultimately determined by its foundation. The storms reveal what fair weather can conceal.
Truth: Jesus Christ is not merely part of our salvation; He is the Rock of our salvation.
Application: We are not trusting in our ability to hold onto Christ. We are resting upon Christ’s ability to hold us.
XII. The Rejected Stone Will Return As The Crushing Stone
The world’s final encounter with Jesus Christ will not be with the suffering Lamb standing silently before Pilate. He will return as the conquering King.
“And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.” Matthew 21:44 (KJB)
The Stone rejected at the First Advent will become the crushing Stone of judgment at the Second Advent.
Men may refuse Him now, mock Him now and attempt to build a world without Him now—but the Stone is coming back. Every human kingdom will fall, while the kingdom of Jesus Christ will stand forever.
Truth: The rejected Saviour will return as the righteous Judge.
Application: It is infinitely better to be broken before Christ in repentance today than to be crushed beneath Him in judgment tomorrow.
Application
Every person must answer four questions:
- Have I stumbled over Christ because I am trusting my own righteousness?
- Have I joined the world in choosing Barabbas—sin, rebellion and human government—over Jesus Christ?
- Am I building my life upon the Rock or upon sinking sand?
- Is Jesus Christ truly precious to me?
There is no salvation in the builders, the religious system, the government or the multitude. Salvation is found exclusively in the rejected Stone.
“Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:10-12 (KJB)
Closing Challenge
The builders rejected Him. Israel stumbled over Him. The Gentiles mocked Him. The rulers crucified Him. The multitude chose Barabbas instead of Him.
But God raised Him from the dead!
The rejected Stone became the Head of the corner. The smitten Rock became the Rock of our salvation. The crucified Lord of glory became the sure Foundation of every believer. You cannot remove the Stone. You cannot replace the Stone. You cannot build around the Stone. You must either fall upon Him in faith or one day have Him fall upon you in judgment.
He is the promised Stone.
He is the rejected Stone.
He is the smitten Rock.
He is the Stumblingstone.
He is the Rock of offence.
He is the precious Corner Stone.
He is the sure Foundation.
He is the Rock of our salvation.
AND THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST!
“Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; And did all eat the same spiritual meat; And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.” 1 Corinthians 10:1-5 (KJB)

9/11 Explained
THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: 10 Things That Nobody Ever Told You About 9/11 That Began America’s Descent Into The Dystopian Surveillance Society We See Today
10 Things That Nobody Ever Told You About 9/11 That Began America’s Descent Into Becoming A Dystopian Surveillance Society
Twenty-five years ago, on September 11, 2001, America changed forever. Nearly 3,000 people were murdered, the World Trade Center disappeared from the Manhattan skyline, the Pentagon burned, and Americans watched in horror as the nation they thought they understood suddenly became something very different. We were told that 19 Islamic terrorists armed with box cutters had surprised the most powerful intelligence and military establishment on earth, penetrated American airspace, struck three of the most important targets in the United States, and changed the course of world history in less than two hours. I believed what I was told—until I didn’t.
“For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.” Luke 12:2 (KJB)
For me, 9/11 has always been personal. I worked at Deloitte & Touche in the World Financial Center directly across the street from the Twin Towers. I had a friend who worked for Empire Blue Cross and spent time working in Tower 1. I was there. I visited him. I personally saw construction activity taking place around those floors that we understood at the time to involve elevator upgrade work. Twenty-five years later, there are far too many documented facts surrounding September 11 that deserve to be discussed openly instead of mocked, censored or dismissed with the magic words “conspiracy theory.”
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we show you 10 things that no one ever told you about 9/11 and the events that ushered America into a dystopian surveillance society.

- “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 just want to thank you for the teachings you give every Sunday night on radio. You are such a blessing to me. I absolutely love your way of teaching the scriptures. 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. Thank you so much Geoffrey, from the bottom of my heart. May the Lord keep you, until He comes back for us. You are in my prayers.” Donald Godin
- “Thank you for the work you are doing brother. Your page and your testimony were a blessing to me this morning as I came across it for the first time. Thank you for the reality of your testimony and what God has done for you in introducing you to Jesus our Lord. God has brought me, in salvation, to Himself as well, through His love and mercy and grace in salvation. How can we praise Him enough? How can we not share this good news!? I pray this day for God’s blessing on your ministry that He may save many souls through the work He has called you to. Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)” Mark and Melissa

- “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
- “It’s hard to find solid biblical teaching in America these days. It’s a blessing to be able to take part in a ministry financially without being concerned about false teaching. All glory to God! God bless!” Maximilian Swan
- “I donate because you are reporting the truth about the increasing wickedness of our time, as God’s word foretold. In so doing we are reminded to “Keep looking up” as we wait in joyful hope for the Lord’s coming, Maranatha! ” Anthony Sloane
- “Geoffrey has the best End Times News out there. I have been receiving his emails for years now and always enjoy his Sunday night messages although I don’t always think exactly as he thinks. We are all in this “boat of life” together and as I come to the end of my life’s journey here, I am more aware of Jesus’s call for us to be one as He and the Father are One.” Deborah Cleaveland
