NTEB RADIO BIBLE STUDY: The Doctrinal Differences Between The Pretribulation Rapture Of The Church And The Rapture Of Tribulation Saints
We’re looking at the evidence for the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church, and evidence for the post-Tribulation rapture of the Tribulation saints.
After the rapture of the Church, a 7-year period of judgment follows. After the rapture of the Tribulation Saints, a thousand years of perfect righteousness follows, kicked off with the Battle of Armageddon thrown in at no extra charge.
Just as in the Bible we see that there is more than one gospel, there is also more than one rapture, and it is only through rightly dividing what we read in the context that we read it in can we discern the manifold differences. Things that are different are not the same, and that is our starting point in our look at the raptured outlined in scripture.
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJB)
On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we are looking at the manifold evidence for the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church, and well as evidence for the post-Tribulation rapture of the Tribulation saints that we read about in places like Matthew 24. In the rapture of the Church, Jesus comes for us Himself, for the Tribulation saints He sends an angel. In the rapture of the Church, we hear His voice ringing out like a trumpet, the Tribulation saints will hear an actual trumpet. After the rapture of the Church, a 7-year period of judgment follows. After the rapture of the Tribulation Saints, a thousand years of perfect righteousness follows kicked off with the Battle of Armageddon thrown in at no extra charge. Just one catch though, if you don’t follow Paul’s command to ‘rightly divide’, you won’t see the obvious difference between the two raptures. Yikes, did I just say ‘two raptures’? Nope, there’s more than that.
This live King James Bible study begins tonight starting at 9:00 PM EST, please join us and bring a friend!

These programs would not be possible without your generous support. Listen to just a few of the recent comments we have gotten:
- “I have been reading on NTEB for about 5 years and listening as I can to your services. If I could list the encouragement, the doctrines, the awareness of what is coming (our blessed hope) but also the last days culture in which I live that you have taught me, this email wouldn’t fit in this letter. Because of you, I am a stronger more equipped soldier for Jesus Christ. Thank you sir for you, your ministry in my life. Faithful to the end because He lives in me.” Ruthie Dennis
- “My name is Carl N from Mumbai, India. My wife Andrea and I have been ardent listeners of your Bible Study and news update podcasts from the very start of the lockdown last year. In fact we make it a point to share these links with our family and friends… many times getting into trouble, as the truth upsets people. We cannot even begin to tell you how this has changed our lives and walk with the Lord. Thank you so much for what you’ve been doing for the Kingdom!! We’ve even switched Bible translations to the KJV. For the last month or so, you’ve been speaking about making end times Bible study materials available. This got us really excited, as we’re eager to use these for our weekly house church group.” Carl N – Mumbai, India
- “I listen to your podcasts often. Very enlightening and I’ve learned a lot. I’m Catholic and followed the Holy Bible throughout my life however, since listening to your podcasts, I’ve learned much more. I recently sent NTEB a small donation. I’d like to do so again in the future. I’ve also signed up for NTEB chatroom. Anyways, I have a downloaded version of KJB on my computer and I follow your Bible Study with my pdf version KJB. You have offered to send out printed version of KJB if requested. If not too much trouble, when you or your staff get the opportunity please send me a copy.” Kevin W – Frankfurt, Germany
- Just wanted to let you know that your ministry is producing fruit. After listening to the studies and church on NTEB, I was motivated to write witness letters along with NTEB gospel tracks to friends from my hometown who I know are not saved. I sent two of the letters to former Catholic priests of mine….I attached the response from him urging me to read the book “Prove It!.” My wife and I have been placing your gospel tracks in different places we visit. This coming Sunday, I am hosting my first Bible study in my house with some people in our neighborhood. Tomorrow evening I have been given a chance to teach the lesson to our youth church group (our church is very Laodicean), and I am going to talk to the youth on end times. Thank you so much for your ministry and encouraging us to get something done for Jesus while we still can! Thomas B
- “The sole purpose of this email to you is to let you know how much we have been blessed by your amazing ministry/website. ‘We’ is my wife and I, in our early forties, 3 kids, professing, churchgoing, bible believing Christians in The Netherlands. Since two months, I listen to your bible studies on Sunday evening, and since this week also to your prophecy podcast. I listen to them in the archives, because of the 6 hour time difference. The shofar and the blessing at 0:30 into the study never fails to make tears in my eyes. We are praying for you, we are praying for your voice, that it lasts in these incredible busy times for you. Listening to your podcasts, you seem to do it effortlessly, talking, scanning the chatbox for questions, diving into the texts, from Genesis to Revelation and everything in between, I love it when you realize after 1:30h into the study, actually a lot more subjects need to be addressed! Thank you for all your work and effort, you are doing an amazing job. Although it all seems effortlessly, I know it is not…Our faith is strengthened by your work and we are able to testify in a better way to the people around us!” Wouter D. van der Wiel – Netherlands
- “Wanted to send you encouragement and thank you for all you are doing!! I’ve been reading from this website for about 5 years and I’ve been on this at least 10 times a day. It’s the most honest prophecy website in history. And you have ministered to me greatly. This lockdown has been amazing as God gets us unto himself and smooths out the paths for us. I was reading devotional from Kenneth Copeland and during that time you had really hit That ministries hard. I was not Word Faith but I was feeding off his teaching. During this time I have removed Kenneth Copeland I wanted to thank you for your exposure of his ministry. Holy Spirit is truly the leader of all truths. The bible study on Bill Gates was tremendous. And I had the same check in my spirit as you did. He’s the guy that gonna lead this one world revolution Amazing times we live in. I’m super excited and living in total victory and peace. Once again thank you for the time you put in your reward in heaven will truly be great. Looking forward to this coming week. My prayer tonight is this …Father send Your Son!! DG
- “Thank you oh so much for sound teaching. I am so thankful and blessed for clicking on your channel. I have been on your Facebook page since 2011 and never subscribed to you-tube channel until today. I loved the live recording of singing, what a delight to hear the joy of the Lord in the voices of the congregation. So wonderful to hear the part about Luke 12:36, that has made my eyebrows furrow when I read and therefore I have always steadfast to not leaning on my own understanding. May God continue to bless you, your family friends and loved ones. All Glory be to Jesus, my Saviour Redeemer and King, Amen.” Susan Anderson
- “Loved this teaching! Presented in a clear contextual manner that was easy to follow along. You connected the dots for me that had previously brought so much confusion, namely the 4th seal covenant, the 5th seal tribulation saints, and the 6th seal 2nd Coming of Christ AFTER the wedding of the Body/Bride of Christ IN HEAVEN. Wow, after 41 years since my being born again by the Holy Spirit in to the Body of Christ, I finally have the answers to end the confusion. What joy and peace has flooded my heart! Thank you for this encouraging teaching of the Word.” SB
- “I am from Sri Lanka and listen to the radio Bible study every week.” Nihal Perera
Nothing thrills my soul like teaching the word of God, it is what the Lord called me to do 29 years ago, and Now The End Begins is the vehicle in which I am able to do it. How exciting it is to be able to teach the Bible to tens of thousands of people per year. Like I told you with the first post of 2020, I have dedicated myself now full-time to NTEB, and it is only through your generous support that such a thing is possible.

I have many lost family who don’t want the truth, including my husband & son. I’ve been banned from seeing my grandsons since I comforted the 4 1/2 year old with sharing Jesus loving the little children & telling him about the one who created him last he stayed overnight March 3rd. He was so excited to hear about Jesus! His dad (my son) was angry that I told him & wants me to apologize. I never will do so. If my own family won’t hear, I know there’s others searching for the truth. My heart grieves for all the lost who will spend eternity in hell if they reject the Lord Jesus Christ, the expectant hope of the world. He is not willing that any should perish. God bless your ministry, Geoffrey! (I continue to pass out your tracts & you’re on my prayer list!)” LouAnn Benham

Democratic Socialists
THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: As America Turns 250, Zohran Mamdani And The Democratic Socialists Of America Ironically Take Control Of New York City
Zohran Mamdani As The Socialist Kingmaker Is Turning New York Into A Political Machine As The Democratic Party’s Left Wing Gains Real Power
You talk about irony, man, this is one for the record books. As America is already knee-deep in celebrations of our 250th year of our founding as a Constitutional Republic, the recently-elected Socialist mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani has launched a coup. House Democrats were left stunned on Tuesday night after two of their colleagues — including the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus — lost primaries to left-wing, Mamdani-backed Socialist challengers. Like it or not, we’ve now come face to face with National Democratic Socialism under the leadership of a fiery, Jew-hating, charismatic leader. Hmm, what does that remind you of? Achtung!, America, the wolf is at the door, and he’s hungry.
“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiasties 1:9 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Trump’s declaration that “America the Beautiful will NEVER be a Communist Country!!!” may sound like a bold defense of the Republic, but it collapses under the weight of his own actions. You cannot publicly warn America about communism while publically lending credibility to the most prominent Socialist mayor in the country. That is not conviction, that is contradiction. Mamdani does not need Trump to endorse his ideology; he only needs Trump to normalize his presence, elevate his status, and treat him as a legitimate governing partner. And Trump has done exactly that. Once that happened, the Socialist left has already gained something far more valuable than applause: respectability. This is how radical movements advance in America. They do not usually arrive wearing the uniform of revolution; they arrive through elections, headlines, photo-ops, federal meetings, political compromise, and carefully managed public relations. A man can be denounced as dangerous on Monday and then treated as a respectable stakeholder on Tuesday, and suddenly the line between opposition and accommodation disappears. Trump may think he is controlling the narrative by calling Mamdani a communist, but the more he centers him, meets with him, and speaks of him as someone he can work with, the more Mamdani becomes a national figure instead of merely a New York City Democratic Socialist. The real danger is not only Zohran Mamdani’s socialism, but the broader collapse of moral clarity in the American political class. At 250 years old, America is not being threatened merely because radicals are running for office; she is being threatened because too many leaders who claim to oppose radicalism are helping make it respectable. Today we visit the Democratic Socialist Revolution underway in America, and show you just what that might mean for our immediate, short-term future.

Warning: The Passion Translation Is Not A Bible, But A Charismatic Paraphrase That Adds To Scripture And Promotes New Apostolic Reformation Doctrine
The Passion Translation Is Not A Bible, But A Charismatic Paraphrase That Adds To The Words Of God And Promotes New Apostolic Reformation Doctrine
The Passion Translation controversy is not merely an argument over Bible version preference, translation style, or whether modern English sounds more “readable” than old English. It is a much deeper issue than that. At its heart, The Passion Translation represents the ongoing attempt by modern charismatic Christianity to replace the fixed words of God with emotional experience, mystical interpretation, and so-called “apostolic” revelation. That is why Bible believers are sounding the alarm, and rightly so.
“Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:6 (KJB)
The Passion Translation is marketed as a Bible, promoted like a Bible, quoted like a Bible, preached from like a Bible, and used devotionally by millions as though it were Scripture. But when examined honestly, it reads far more like a charismatic paraphrase than a faithful translation of the words of God. It does not simply tell the reader what the verse says. It repeatedly tells the reader what Brian Simmons and the Passion Translation team think the verse should feel like. That is a major difference.
The King James Bible says:
“Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.” Proverbs 30:5 (KJB)
“Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.” Proverbs 30:6 (KJB)
God’s words are pure, full stop. Man is not invited to improve them, intensify them, romanticize them, update them with charismatic catchphrases, or insert “heart language” that the Holy Ghost did not place there. A Bible translation should be judged by its faithfulness to the text, not by how emotionally moving it sounds. The Passion Translation reverses that order. It often prizes tone, atmosphere, feeling, and devotional impact over textual accuracy. That may appeal to the modern worship culture at Hillsong and Bethel, but it is deadly to Bible doctrine.
“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” 2 Timothy 4:2 (KJB)
This is where the New Apostolic Reformation connection becomes impossible to ignore. NAR-style Christianity thrives on modern apostles, prophets, impartations, signs, wonders, fresh revelation, destiny language, kingdom-now expectation, and emotional encounter with God. The Passion Translation fits that ecosystem perfectly. It gives that movement a Bible-sounding text already flavored with its own vocabulary and assumptions. It is spiritually deadly if you value Bible truth. When a charismatic preacher stands up and says “the Bible says,” but then reads from a paraphrase that has already inserted charismatic interpretation into the verse, the listener is no longer hearing the words of God. He is hearing doctrine smuggled into the form of Scripture. That is not Bible translation, that’s doctrinal manipulation.
The King James Bible says:
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJB)
The Passion Translation does not train people to study, it trains them to feel. It gives them an instant devotional high, a warm spiritualized impression, and a mystical experience of the verse — but too often at the expense of the actual words on the page. That matters because doctrine is built on words. Paul did not say vaguely inspiring things by accident. The Holy Ghost gave precise words, precise grammar, precise doctrine, precise distinctions. That is especially important for Church Age truth. Romans, Galatians, Ephesians, Colossians, and the rest of Paul’s epistles cannot be safely handled by a paraphrase that rewrites doctrine into emotional experience.
A new believer reading The Passion Translation may come away thinking the Christian life is mainly about supernatural encounter, prophetic destiny, impartation, emotional intimacy, and mystical union language. But a Bible believer reading the King James Bible learns sound doctrine, rightly divided truth, the finished work of Christ, the difference between Israel and the Church, law and grace, prophecy and mystery, and the believer’s standing in Christ. That is the difference between spiritual emotion and spiritual truth.
The Passion Translation’s defenders often say, “It helps people love the Bible.” But that is the wrong defense. A paraphrase that changes the words of Scripture is not justified because people enjoy reading it. Golden calves are always popular. The question is not whether people like it. The question is whether it is faithful to the preserved words of God, and it is not.
The Bible says:
“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” John 17:17 (KJB)
Truth sanctifies. Not mood. Not atmosphere. Not spiritualized paraphrase. Not the passion of a translator. The words of God are the issue.
The Passion Translation is especially troubling because it comes at a time when much of professing Christianity is already moving away from doctrinal preaching and toward emotionally charged worship experiences, prophetic impressions, dreams, visions, and spiritual entertainment. In that environment, TPT does not correct the error. It feeds it. It gives the modern church exactly what it already wants: a Bible that sounds like Hillsong, Bethel, and the NAR prayer room. That is not a compliment.
A Bible believer does not need a Bible that sounds like the worship industry. A Bible believer needs the Book that reproves, corrects, instructs, divides truth from error, exposes false doctrine, and magnifies the Lord Jesus Christ according to the Scriptures.
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJB)
Notice the first thing Scripture is profitable for: doctrine. Not emotional atmosphere. Not spiritual goosebumps. Not a “fresh word.” Doctrine.
The Passion Translation weakens that because it blurs the boundary between what God said and what man wants the reader to feel. Once that boundary is gone, anything can be made to sound biblical. NAR impartation theology can sound biblical. Modern apostolic authority can sound biblical. Dominionist kingdom language can sound biblical. Mystical union language can sound biblical. And why? Because the paraphrase has already done the theological work before the reader ever opens the page. That is why the warning is necessary.
The issue is not that Brian Simmons is passionate. The issue is not that people find the wording beautiful. The issue is not that it has helped someone in a difficult season. The issue is whether Christians have the right to call something “the Bible” when it repeatedly expands, interprets, and reshapes the inspired text. They absolutely do not.
The King James Bible believer is not being narrow-minded here. He is being obedient. God did not tell us to preserve the feeling of His words. He gave us His words, and His promise to preserve them forever. There is no promise to preserve a ‘message’.
“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psalm 119:89 (KJB)
The Passion Translation is unsettled by design. It is interpretive, expansive, experiential, and movement-friendly. It is the kind of Bible product that could only thrive in a generation already trained to value experience over exposition, the Laodicean Church Age. That is why it must be duly marked and avoided. The faithful pastor, teacher, parent, and Bible believer should warn others plainly – The Passion Translation is not a trustworthy Bible translation. It is a charismatic paraphrase that repeatedly adds to the text, changes the tone of doctrine, and aligns naturally with New Apostolic Reformation thinking. Use it as Scripture, and you will eventually absorb its theology. Stick with the Book.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Trump Platformed Fauci, Biden Pardoned Him, And The American People Remain Waiting For Answers That May Never Come
Anthony Fauci Is The Perfect COVID Villain For Donald Trump Because He Absorbs Public Fury While The Biden Pardon Keeps Prosecution Out Of Reach
Everyone is talking right now about the explosive closing shot that Tulsi Gabbard was instructed to level against Anthony Fauci as she was being forced out of office. Bringing Anthony Fauci to justice is quite tantalizing indeed, I’m all for it. But wait a second. If Fauci is the perfect villain, Operation Warp Speed is the evidence that the villain didn’t act alone. The Deep State pushed it, Big Pharma profited, social media censored it, and Biden may have mandated. But, but, but… Trump rushed it, promoted it, and claimed credit for it as the ‘Father of the Vaccine’. You cannot take down Fauci without implicating the people who made his reign of terror possible, people like Donald John Trump.
“A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.” Proverbs 19:5 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Donald Trump did not merely allow the vaccine program to happen. He championed it. He branded Operation Warp Speed as one of the greatest achievements of his presidency. He wanted credit for compressing years of vaccine development into months. He even allowed himself to be called, and reportedly called himself, the “father of the vaccine.” That phrase may haunt him more than anything else in the COVID record. Because if the mRNA rollout is now part of the reckoning — and it must be — then Trump is not standing outside the scandal pointing in, he is standing inside the room. Fauci may be the face of the lockdowns and the public-health arrogance, but Trump is the man who took ownership of the rushed and quite deadly vaccine program that became the foundation for the mandates, the pressure campaigns, the censorship of injured people, and the destruction of trust in American medicine. Trump can rage against Fauci. He can release documents. He can blame Biden’s pardon. He can even say the Deep State protected the guilty. But he cannot easily explain away the fact that he still wants applause for Operation Warp Speed. He wants to condemn the COVID regime while preserving his trophy from that same regime. That, dear Christian, is a politically fatal contradiction. Today we bring you Tulsi Gabbard’s last message in its entirety, and revisit the dark time in world history that will be forever known as The Plannedemic.

- “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 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!?
