The Destruction Of The Roman Catholic Notre Dame Cathedral In France Is An Excellent Illustration Of Revelation 18

While the unsaved world weeps over this Roman Catholic monument in Paris, let’s take an honest look at exactly what Notre Dame is, and what it is not.

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Roman Catholic Bishop of Paris, Maurice de Sully, ordered the construction of Notre Dame in 1160. He deemed the church that already stood in the location unworthy of the prestige of his position.

I was travelling for business on the day that Roman Catholic Notre Dame building in Paris was burning, and my week got pretty busy and I never got around to doing a story on it. But that turned out to be a good thing because it gave me time to reflect a little on much of the symbolism attached to Notre Dame. Contrary to all the reports in the biased Liberal media, Notre Dame is not a ‘symbol of Christianity’, far from it. Notre Dame is a symbol of the Vatican harlot we read about in Revelation 17 and 18, with many surprising parallels.

“Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.” Revelation 18:8,24 (KJV)

So while the unsaved world weeps over this Roman Catholic monument, let’s take an honest look at exactly what Notre Dame is, and what it is not. Let’s start with the basics.

  • WHAT’S IN A NAME: The term ‘Notre Dame’ is French, it means ‘our mother’ or “blessed lady”, and it refers to the Roman Catholic doctrine of worshipping Mary, the mother of the earthly Jesus. The Roman Catholic university Notre Dame is similarly thus named. The building in Paris was built by a Roman Catholic bishop. Notre Dame is not a Christian church or a symbol of Christianity, it is exactly what it says it is – a Roman Catholic temple built for idol worship, but more on that later.
  • ORIGINS OF NOTRE DAME: The Roman Catholic Bishop of Paris, Maurice de Sully, ordered the construction of Notre Dame in 1160. He deemed the church that already stood in the location unworthy of the prestige of his position. Actual construction started a few years later when the foundation stone was laid in 1163. The choir, the first portion of the building to be completed, was consecrated in 1177. The High Altar was finished a few years later, in 1182. Maurice de Sully died in 1196 while the cathedral was still being built. Construction continued for years, with many bishops and architects making their mark on the seemingly never-ending building process. The fact that so many people had a part in building Notre Dame is what accounts for its unique and varied design. It wasn’t until 1345 that the cathedral was consecrated as complete. source
  • SOME RANDOM ‘FUN FACTS’: Henry VI of England was crowned inside the cathedral in 1431 and Napoleon Bonaparte was crowned emperor of France inside the cathedral in 1804. The cathedral receives nearly 13 million visitors a year and is home to exquisite religious artifacts, paintings, sculptures and other priceless works of art. source

Ok, so there you have some of how Notre Dame came into existence, and just a tiny smidge of its illustrious history. Now let’s talk for a moment about the 800 lb elephant in the room, the fact that Notre Dame is packed to overflowing with pagan and demonic statues and artwork.

Notre Dame contains 3 different types of monsters and they are as follows:

  1. CHIMERA: Chimera are ornamental-only sculptures. These statues are often depicted as monsters or mythical beasts. The two most famous types of chimera are the Wyvern, a two-footed dragon, and the Stryga, known as the “spitting gargoyle”.
  2. GROTESQUES: This is the genetic term for stone carvings, regardless of whether they carry water.
  3. GARGOYLES: Gargoyles are chimera and grotesques. They are ornamental, stone carvings that serve a functional purpose. Before you go ahead calling a spade a spade, make sure that it drains water, first. source

The bible has a lot to say about monsters like these, and in nearly every instance in which they show up, it is almost always connected to Satan and the demons that populate the bottomless pit in the region of a place called Hell. The bible knows all about multi-headed dragons, mutant talking beasts, and zombies. But ask yourself this, what are doing they adorning a supposed “christian” church when they represent the Devil?

“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.” Revelation 13:1,2 (KJV)

Stone demons gargoyle and chimera at Notre Dame de Paris

Here is a nice random sampling of the demons that live in Notre Dame:

Does any of that seem ‘christian’ at all to you? Even if you are a Roman Catholic reading this article, if you’re honest you would be forced to admit there is nothing Christian at all about any of it. A building started by the greed and arrogance of a Roman bishop, dedicated to the idolatrous worship of Mary, and decorated by demons. If any of the apostles were still alive, they would have set fire to the place themselves!

Recently we did a 2-hour radio bible study about how God will destroy the Vatican counterfeit during the time of Jacob’s trouble, you can listen to it here, and we highly recommend that you do. It’s quite an eye-opener. It is also recommended that you visit our Catholic Church story archive, and see for yourself what Rome has been up to lately.

“And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city! And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate. Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.” Revelation 18:16-20 (KJV)

In conclusion, the bible in Revelation 17 and 18 shows us in great detail how the Roman Catholic church and its Vatican city-state system will come to an end. God sets the whole thing on fire and incinerates it into nothingness. The fire of Notre Dame which so captivated the world this week is an excellent type picture of how the whole world will watch the entire Vatican system be destroyed by fire and a millstone in the time of Jacob’s trouble.

What does God and the bible have to say about all this? His message to deceived Catholics is simple and concise, and we present it to you in its entirety:

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.” Revelation 18:4,5 (KJV)

Some Of The Monsters Of Notre Dame

Does this look like a “christian” church to you?? It looks like a pit of fallen creatures in the end times. 

Now The End Begins is your front line defense against the rising tide of darkness in the last Days before the Rapture of the Church

Please continue to pray for us, and for wisdom for me especially, as we continue taking steps to print the NTEB branded King James Bible for our free Bible and Bibles Behind Bars program. It is exciting and intimidating at the same time. If the Lord has prospered your financially, we ask you to donate to help us continue to send out free Bibles at this level, and even higher than we are at the moment. It takes a lot of prayer, and a lot of resources to do all this. Praise the Lord we are doing it, all of us together, labouring in the Lord’s harvest field. TO THE FIGHT!!!

When you contribute to this fundraising effort, you are helping us to do what the Lord called us to do. The money you send in goes primarily to the overall daily operations of this site. When people ask for Bibles, we send them out at no charge. When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.

But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!

“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” Titus 2:13 (KJB)

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Has The Trump White House Given The Order To MAGA Influencers To Stop Posting About The Rocketing Sky-High Gas Prices?

Trump’s Iran War Sends Gas Prices To $4.45 As MAGA Influencers Go Silent On The Pain At The Pump Ahead Of The Midterms

Donald Trump has a gas price problem, and no amount of rallies, Truth Social rants, influencer spin, or “America First” slogans can make it disappear. The numbers are glowing in red at gas stations all across America. AAA says the national average for regular gas is now $4.45 per gallon as of May 4, 2026, with diesel at $5.641. Florida is paying $4.38, California has exploded to $6.11, Washington is at $5.67, and Hawaii is at $5.63. That is not fake news, media bias, or a Democrat talking point. Word is coming out now that Trump’s loyal legion of social media warriors have been ordered to not discuss it online. Donald Trump and his agenda have just ‘hit the wall’ at 100mph, what happens now?

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, this is the political nightmare Trump cannot meme away. A president can distract people from a scandal. He can distract them from a bad poll. He can distract them from a failed appointment, an ugly interview, or another Washington ‘food fight’. But he cannot distract a man filling up his work truck. He cannot distract a mother who has to choose between topping off the tank and buying groceries. He cannot distract a small business owner watching diesel prices eat through the week’s profit. The gas pump doesn’t care about Left or Right, the fake news or media bias. The gas pump tells you the truth in dollars and cents, and right now, that truth is threatening to destroy the entire MAGA movement and agenda. Trump’s war in Iran has settled into a daily, slow grind, with no end in sight, contining to impact the global economy. Americans right now are experiencing a rapidly-increasing sense of economic instability while watching the Washington elites dining on golden plates. Let them eat cake, you say? Ha! That’s exactly where we are on Day 2,240 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve!

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.

NTEB RADIO BIBLE STUDY: The Main Differences Between Biblical Zionism And The Counterfeit Found Within The Zionism Of US Christian Nationalism

Published

2 days ago

on

May 3, 2026

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Biblical Zionism Is Rooted In God’s Covenant With Israel, Christian Nationalist Zionism Is Rooted In Man’s Lust For Earthly Rule

Biblical Zionism is the King James Bible position that God is not finished with Israel, that the covenants He made with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and David have not been cancelled, transferred to the Church, or reassigned to any Gentile nation. Israel’s return to the land is not a political accident, a diplomatic novelty, or a conservative talking point. It is a prophetic marker in the end-times timeline, showing us that the same God who scattered the Jews for their unbelief is the same God who has preserved them for their coming national restoration.

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

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, Christian Nationalist Zionism is what happens when support for Israel is taken out of the rightly divided Scriptures and fused with political dominion, national pride, state power, and the fantasy that America, or any other Gentile nation, can somehow become the instrument of the kingdom before the King returns. It uses the language of Zion while chasing the machinery of Babylon. It waves the flag, quotes the prophets, invokes Jerusalem, and then attempts to turn Bible prophecy into a campaign platform. The Bible believer must be able to discern the difference. We stand with Israel because God told Abraham, “I will bless them that bless thee,” but we do not bow down to the modern state, worship politicians, or pretend that earthly government can bring in the kingdom of heaven. Biblical Zionism looks for Jesus Christ to return and restore Israel at the Second Advent. Christian Nationalist Zionism looks to ballots, banners, armies, and courts to build what only the Lord Himself can establish. One is Bible prophecy. The other is political counterfeit. Tonight we compare the two to see which one is correct.

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
  • “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’m a KJB believer. We’re so close to being “caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 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

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: The Zion Of God And The Coming Kingdom Of Jesus Christ

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Perfection Of Beauty: Why Zion Is The Place God Chose For His Habitation, His Glory, His Word, And His Future Kingdom Reign Out Of Israel

In your King James Bible, the word “Zion” appears 152 times in 152 verses, with all of them anchored in the Old Testament. And in the overwhelming majority of places, Zion is a literal, visible and physical geographic location firmly connected to King David, and to the coming King Jesus at the Second Advent. Zion will be the place where King Jesus will sit on David’s throne, and rule the world during the Millennium. God will rule the world from a Zionist Kingdom on this Earth, believe it or not.

“The mighty God, even the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined. Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him. He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people. Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.“ Psalm 50:1-3 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: The Zion of God

The Zion of God

1. Zion Begins As A Real Place: The Strong Hold Of The Jebusites

The first major biblical identification of Zion is in David’s conquest of Jerusalem:

“Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David.” 2 Samuel 5:7 (KJB)

So, historically, Zion begins as a fortified stronghold in Jerusalem, captured by David and then called “the city of David.” It is not first presented as an abstract spiritual idea. It is a literal place tied to David, Jerusalem, kingship, and conquest.

2. Zion Becomes The Seat Of Davidic Rule

Once David takes Zion, it becomes connected with the royal authority of Israel’s king. This matters because God’s covenant with David makes Jerusalem and Zion central to the kingdom promises. Zion is not merely a city name; it becomes the earthly seat from which God’s chosen king rules.

That is why the Psalms can speak of Zion with such majesty. Zion is the city of the King, the place associated with God’s government on the earth.

3. Zion Becomes The Place Of God’s Chosen Habitation

Psalm 132 makes the doctrine unmistakable:

“For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.” Psalm 132:13 (KJB)

This is where Zion rises above mere geography. The Bible says the LORD chose Zion. That choice makes Zion the appointed earthly center of divine presence, worship, glory, and future kingdom administration.

Psalm 50:2 fits perfectly here:

“Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.” Psalm 50:2 (KJB)

Zion is called “the perfection of beauty” not because of architecture, scenery, or human achievement, but because God’s presence, God’s glory, God’s word, and God’s King are associated with it.

4. Zion Becomes The Prophetic Center Of The Coming Kingdom

The prophets take Zion forward into the future reign of the LORD. Isaiah says:

“And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.” Isaiah 2:3 (KJB)

That is a kingdom passage. Zion becomes the center from which divine law and instruction go forth to the nations. In a rightly divided framework, this points forward to the earthly, visible, Davidic kingdom reign of the Lord Jesus Christ, when Jerusalem is not replaced or spiritualized away, but exalted according to prophecy.

5. Zion Is Connected With Israel’s National Restoration

Paul quotes the prophets in Romans 11:

“And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:” Romans 11:26 (KJB)

Notice the spelling “Sion” in the New Testament KJB. It is the same biblical idea carried forward. In Romans 11, Zion/Sion is connected with Israel’s future deliverance, not the erasing of Israel’s promises. The Deliverer comes in connection with Jacob, Israel, covenant mercy, and national restoration.

6. Zion Also Has A Heavenly Association

Hebrews gives another layer:

“But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,” Hebrews 12:22 (KJB)

Here, “mount Sion” is connected with the heavenly Jerusalem. That does not cancel the earthly promises to Jerusalem and Israel; it shows that Zion has both an earthly prophetic importance and a heavenly glory associated with God’s eternal purposes.

The Word “Zion” In One Sentence

Zion begins as David’s conquered stronghold in Jerusalem, becomes the city of God’s chosen habitation and royal glory, expands into the prophetic center of Messiah’s earthly kingdom, and is finally seen in connection with the heavenly Jerusalem and the eternal purposes of God.

Psalm 50:2 is therefore a magnificent statement: God shines out of the place He chose, the place of His King, His covenant, His worship, His glory, and His coming kingdom.
