NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: What Is A Book Like ‘The 2030 Spike’ Doing In the CIA Library And Why Is The New World Order So Focused On It?
The 2030 Spike serves as a guidebook for humanity through the treacherous minefields and wastelands ahead to a bright, peaceful and prosperous future in which all humans have the opportunity to thrive and build a better civilization.
The clock is relentlessly ticking! Our world teeters on a knife-edge between a peaceful and prosperous future for all, and a dark winter of death and destruction that threatens to smother the light of civilization. Within 30 years, in the 2030 decade, six powerful ‘drivers’ will converge with unprecedented force in a statistical spike that could tear humanity apart and plunge the world into a new Dark Age. Depleted fuel supplies, massive population growth, poverty, global climate change, famine, growing water shortages and international lawlessness are on a crash course with potentially catastrophic consequences.
This is the description of a book, written in 2003, and sitting in the CIA library called ‘The 2030 Spike’. Why is it there?
“While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.” 2 Peter 2:19 (KJB)
On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, the people behind the New World Order have declared for decades now that the year 2030 will be the most pivotal year in our modern human history. The World Economic Forum, the United Nations, just about every country on Earth are right now in some form of a 2030 countdown. The 2030 Agenda with its terrifying dystopian agenda is coming at us on a collision course, and we are being groomed and prepared for it right now with things like the Great Reset and the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In other news, a US pilot has ‘safely ejected’ from his F-35, and now the Pentagon is asking the public for help in ‘locating it’. Yes, this is how utterly crazy our everyday life is, so crazy we have stopped noticing it. On this episode we once again pull back the covers to show you the raw, unfiltered end times we find ourselves in here on Day 1,281 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve.

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
- “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
- “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.

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: The Last Adam
The First Adam Brought Sin And Death, But The Last Adam Jesus Christ Came From Heaven To Save Every Lost Sinner Who Believes The Gospel
There is perhaps no more chilling indictment of modern Christianity than watching pastors, worship leaders, theologians and Christian entertainers spend decades preaching about Jesus Christ, singing His name and building careers upon His church, only to eventually announce that they no longer believe the Bible, no longer believe in God and no longer consider themselves Christians. Former Pentecostal pastor Timmy Gibson is merely the latest name added to a rapidly growing procession that includes Joshua Harris, Jon Steingard, George Perdikis, Bart Campolo, Audrey Assad and others who once stood before crowds as representatives of the faith they now renounce. But their departures do not diminish Jesus Christ or disprove the word of God—they expose the terrifying difference between religious profession and biblical salvation. A huge difference as you’ll soon see.
“And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.” 1 Corinthians 15:45 (KJB)
You can preach Jesus without knowing Him, sing about the cross without trusting it, build a church without being born again and spend an entire lifetime inside Christianity without ever coming to Christ as a guilty sinner in need of a Saviour. The first Adam made us sinners and brought death upon the human race, but the last Adam—the Lord from Heaven—came to save sinners through His shed blood, death, burial and resurrection. If you came to Jesus for healing, happiness, success, acceptance or religious experience, but never came as a lost sinner trusting His finished work, then you came for the wrong reason. On this Sunday Service, we clear away the clutter and present you Jesus, high and lifted up.
The Bible Believers Sunday Service: The Last Adam
The Last Adam, Or The Supremacy of Jesus Christ Over Sin, Death, Religion and the Ruin of Adam
Main Text
“And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.” 1 Corinthians 15:45–49 (KJB)
Central Truth
Every person is born naturally in Adam, under sin and sentenced to death. The sinner who believes the gospel is spiritually placed in Jesus Christ, receiving righteousness, eternal life and the promise of a glorified body. This is why you must be born again, your first birth is no good.
“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” John 3:3 (KJB)
The first Adam brought the human race down into death. The last Adam raises believing sinners into everlasting life. Jesus Christ is not one religious option among many—He is God’s final, complete and exclusive answer to everything Adam destroyed.
I. The First Adam Was the Beginning of the Natural Creation
“And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7 (KJB)
Adam was created:
- Directly by God.
- In the image of God.
- Without sin.
- With dominion over the earth.
- With the ability and responsibility to obey God.
- As the representative head of the human race.
Adam was not born into the world; he was created by God. Every other naturally conceived human being descends from him and consequently bears his fallen image.
“And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:” Genesis 5:3 (KJB)
Adam was originally created in God’s image, but after the fall he produced children in his own fallen likeness. Humanity inherited more than Adam’s physical characteristics; it inherited his sinful nature and sentence of death.
Application
Our fundamental problem is not our environment, education, economic condition or lack of self-esteem. Our problem is that we are members of Adam’s fallen race.
II. The First Adam Brought Sin and Death Into the World
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” Romans 5:12 (KJB)
Adam’s disobedience brought:
- Sin into the world.
- Death upon mankind.
- Condemnation before God.
- Separation from God.
- Corruption into creation.
- A sinful nature upon Adam’s descendants.
“For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.” Romans 5:19 (KJB)
We do not become sinners merely when we commit our first sinful act. We commit sinful acts because we were born with a sinful nature inherited through Adam.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23 (KJB)
Application
Education may refine Adam’s descendants. Religion may restrain them. Government may regulate them. Psychology may analyze them. But none of these things can remove a sinner from Adam and place him into Christ.
The sinner does not need renovation—he needs regeneration.
III. Jesus Christ Is the Second Man and the Last Adam
“And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.” 1 Corinthians 15:45-48 (KJB)
Jesus is called:
- The second man because He is the beginning of a new humanity.
- The last Adam because there will never be another representative head or another divine plan of salvation.
There was a first Adam, but there will never be a third Adam. Jesus Christ is God’s last, complete and eternal answer.
The contrast between the two Adams
| The First Man Adam | The Last Adam Jesus |
| Came from the earth | Is the Lord from Heaven |
| Became a living soul | Became a quickening Spirit |
| Was tested in a garden | Submitted to God in a garden |
| Disobeyed concerning a tree | Obeyed unto death upon a tree |
| Brought sin | Bore our sins |
| Brought condemnation | Provides justification |
| Brought death | Gives eternal life |
| Produced a fallen race | Creates one new man |
| Returned to the dust | Rose bodily from the dead |
| Bears the earthly image | Gives believers the heavenly image |
Jesus Christ did not come merely to repair Adam’s old creation. He came to become the Head of an entirely new creation.
“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)
IV. The Supremacy of the Last Adam Is Revealed in His Obedience
Adam was given one prohibition and disobeyed. Jesus Christ faced every temptation and remained completely obedient to His Father.
“For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.” Romans 5:19 (KJB)
“And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.” Philippians 2:8 (KJB)
Adam’s disobedience was counted against his race. Christ’s perfect obedience and finished sacrifice are counted for those who believe. We are not saved through our obedience to God. We are saved through faith in what Jesus Christ accomplished through His obedience.
Religion says, ‘Obey so that God may accept you.’
The gospel says, ‘Believe on the One whose obedience has satisfied God completely.’
“Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.” Ephesians 1:5-7 (KJB)
V. The Last Adam Defeated What the First Adam Released
“For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” 1 Corinthians 15:21–22 (KJB)
Adam brought death, but Christ conquered death through His resurrection.
“Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.” Romans 6:9 (KJB)
Jesus Christ is supreme because:
- His blood satisfies God’s judgment against sin.
- His cross defeated the power of sin.
- His burial demonstrates that He truly died.
- His resurrection conquered death.
- His righteousness justifies the believer.
- His Spirit seals the believer.
- His life guarantees our future resurrection.
Application
Christianity does not rest upon religious feelings, alleged healings, visions, tongues or supernatural experiences. It rests upon the historical death, burial and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. If every feeling disappears and every circumstance turns against us, the empty tomb remains empty.
VI. A Sinner Must Change His Position, Not Merely His Behavior
Every person occupies one of two spiritual positions:
- In Adam: condemned, spiritually dead and awaiting judgment.
- In Christ: justified, spiritually alive and possessing eternal life.
“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.” Romans 8:1 (KJB)
A person is not placed into Christ by:
- Being raised in church.
- Attending Bible college.
- Becoming a pastor.
- Building a congregation.
- Preaching sermons.
- Baptizing converts.
- Performing supposed healings.
- Speaking in tongues.
- Feeding the poor.
- Living a respectable life.
“For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 12:13 (KJB)
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 (KJB)
“Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.” John 3:7 (KJB)
A minister can spend decades talking about Jesus without ever trusting Jesus Christ’s finished work as the payment for his own sins. Religious activity can give a person a reputation, an audience and a career. It cannot give him eternal life.
VII. The Only Saving Message Is the Gospel of Christ
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” 1 Corinthians 15:1–4 (KJB)
A sinner must understand:
- I have sinned against a holy God.
- My sin has earned death and judgment.
- I cannot save myself through religion or good works.
- Jesus Christ died as the payment for my sins.
- He was buried and rose bodily from the dead.
- God will save me when I place my faith in Jesus Christ alone.
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8–9 (KJB)
Application
A person may originally enter a church because he is lonely, sick, frightened or searching for answers. But unless he eventually recognizes himself as a guilty sinner and trusts Christ’s finished work, he has not believed the saving gospel.
Jesus did not die merely to improve Adam’s children. He died to save them and place them into Himself.
VIII. When People Come to Jesus for the Wrong Reason
Many people are invited to “come to Jesus” because He supposedly will:
- Heal their bodies.
- Restore their relationships.
- Guarantee success.
- Fulfill their dreams.
- Give them an emotional experience.
- Solve all their earthly problems.
- Make them prosperous and happy.
But those things are not the gospel. Jesus confronted people who followed Him for material benefits rather than because they believed who He was.
“Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.” John 6:26 (KJB)
When the expected healing does not come, the emotional experience fades or life becomes painful, a false convert may conclude that Christianity has failed him. In reality, he may never have trusted the gospel at all. He came for benefits from Jesus without first coming to Jesus as a sinner needing a Saviour.
Teaching Statement
If you came to Jesus only to obtain a better life, but never trusted His shed blood as the payment for your sins, you came for the wrong reason.
IX. Timmy Gibson and the Tragedy of an Empty Pulpit
Timmy Gibson reportedly spent approximately thirty years teaching and preaching, including seventeen years leading a church he founded. He now says he no longer believes the Bible or Christianity and publicly identifies as an atheist. Freedom From Religion Foundation
His story should not cause us to question the supremacy of Christ. It should cause us to question what passes for conversion and ministry inside modern Christianity.
Gibson’s background emphasized supposed healings, tongues, spiritual experiences and personal transformation. But none of those things proves that a person ever trusted Christ’s death, burial and resurrection as the payment for his sins.
“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.” Titus 1:16 (KJB)
An important rightly divided distinction
We cannot infallibly see Gibson’s heart or declare from his present atheism alone that he was never saved. Biblically, there are two possible conditions:
- A lost religious professor: He preached about Jesus but never personally trusted the gospel.
- A saved but ruined workman: He once trusted Christ but later abandoned sound doctrine, shipwrecked his testimony and became disqualified for Christian service.
Salvation and service are not identical. A saved man can destroy his ministry, lose his reward and become a castaway without becoming spiritually unborn.
“But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9:27 (KJB)
Here “castaway” concerns being rejected or disapproved for service and reward—not losing eternal salvation.
“If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.” 2 Timothy 2:13 (KJB)
Application
Never place your confidence in a preacher’s personality, longevity, church size, education or supernatural claims. Preachers can fall, institutions can collapse and religious experiences can be exposed as counterfeit. Jesus Christ remains exactly who the Bible declares Him to be.
“Let God be true, but every man a liar.” Romans 3:4 (KJB)
X. The Last Adam Must Have the Preeminence
“And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.” Colossians 1:18 (KJB)
Jesus Christ is supreme over:
- Adam and the entire human race.
- Sin and condemnation.
- Satan and spiritual wickedness.
- Religion and human philosophy.
- Every preacher and religious institution.
- Death and the grave.
- Heaven and earth.
- The present creation and the world to come.
A fallen preacher cannot diminish Christ. An atheist cannot dethrone Him. A skeptic cannot disprove Him. A false church cannot replace Him. The last Adam has conquered death and will reign until every enemy is beneath His feet.
“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:” Philippians 2:9 (KJB)
Closing Challenge
The final question is not:
- Were you raised in church?
- Were you baptized?
- Did you have an emotional experience?
- Did you speak in tongues?
- Did you once answer an altar call?
- Did you become a preacher?
- Did people believe that God was using you?
The question is:
Have you, as a guilty and helpless sinner, placed your faith in the shed blood, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ as the complete payment for your sins? The first Adam cannot save you. Religion cannot save you. A pastor cannot save you. Your experiences cannot save you. Your good works cannot save you. Only the last Adam can take a condemned child of Adam and make him a redeemed, justified and eternally secure member of the body of Christ.
“For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” 1 Corinthians 15:22 (KJB)
The first Adam brought us into the grave. The last Adam came out of the grave—and everyone who trusts Him will come out as well.

‘Maria’s Hope’ Vegetable Garden At The Glory Fellowship Orphanage In Kenya Is Nearly Ready For Seeds And Seedlings As Workers Install Fencing
The work on the ‘Maria’s Hope’ vegetable garden at the Glory Fellowship Orphanage in Kenya has been going on every day this week with wonderful progress
This week, the acre-wide property at the Glory Fellowship Orphanage in Kisii, Kenya has seen a flurry of activity as volunteers first cleared the land and removed the brush, cut down trees to uses for fence posts, and then strun barbed wire all around it to keep curious animals out. The only thing left to do is to plant the seeds and seedlings which is scheduled for tomorrow. NTEB is answering the “Macedonian call” by helping them through Operation Africa!, and it’s been a blessing for the giver as well as the reciever. When complete, it will feed all the 84 orphans while supplying a work-based revenue stream when they sell the overflow produce at market. We are not just giving them a fish, we are giving them the abiity to become fishermen themselves.
“And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.” Acts 16:9 (KJB)
When we first recieved the request for Bibles 4 months ago, never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that this is what it would become. But God sure did. All He required from us was to show up and be faithful, and He’s been doing the rest. Supplying them first with Bibles, then medicine to treat malaria and typhoid, getting them a well and tank for clean water, mattresses and blankets, emergency food rations, and now ‘Maria’s Hope’ vegetable garden. This is the complete package.

With your help, I would love to be able to provide them with a cow, a goat and a couple of dozen chickens to go with all the vegetables we are helping them to plant. This is not a hand out, this is a massive help up, something that will provide for them until the Lord comes. We need to raise around $10,000 for all of it. Come help us to do it!!

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: November 22, 1963, Is The Moment When The Deep State Officially Took Control Of America By Taking Out The President
From JFK To Donald Trump: Six Decades Of Government Secrecy, Warrantless Surveillance, Undeclared Wars And The Rise Of The American Deep State
The American Deep State was institutionally created by the National Security Act of 1947, but it came of age in Dallas on November 22, 1963. President John F. Kennedy was murdered in broad daylight, Lyndon Johnson was sworn into office beside a bloodstained Jackie Kennedy, and the government quickly erected an official narrative that would be protected by secrecy for generations. The photograph of a smiling Johnson turning toward a winking Albert Thomas remains the chilling image of that transfer of power. The old president suspiciously dead, the excited new president smiling from ear to ear, and the machinery of permanent government moving forward without missing a beat.
“Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?” Isaiah 29:15 (KJB)
What followed was not theory but history: COINTELPRO, MKULTRA, Operation CHAOS, the Gulf of Tonkin deception, Vietnam, Watergate, CIA coups, Iran-Contra, government torture, fabricated certainty about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, the Patriot Act and warrantless surveillance of the American people. Presidents changed, parties traded power and congressional hearings occasionally exposed crimes after the damage was done, but the intelligence agencies, military establishment, secret courts, federal law-enforcement apparatus and private defense contractors continued growing. The Deep State is the permanent system beneath the visible government—a machine that survives every election, protects its own secrets and hands every incoming president powers the Constitution never intended him to possess. But those powers come at a very steep price. From Dallas to Vietnam, from Watergate to Iran-Contra, from 9/11 and Iraq to warrantless surveillance, Butler PA and Trump’s expanding wars, the architecture remains firmly standing. Presidents change, slogans change and political parties change, but since November 22, 1963, the machine has never stopped running. On this edition of the Prophecy News Podcast, we show you what the Deep State really is, and why we only have one true political party.

- “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 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
