Now The End Begins
Host And Founder Of ‘Now The End Begins’ Geoffrey Grider:
There’s a reason why all the mega churches at Christmas time all seem to have the same messages, they’re buying prepackaged Laodicean ‘sermon kits’ from apostates.
Have you ever wondered why so many of the ‘big churches’ all kind of look the same, the pastors all kind of dress the same, and their sermon series absolutely all look and sound the same? What if I told you that these Laodicean pulpit pretenders, far from being Bible preachers, are buying their sermons, outlines, stage decorations and everything else they need in prepackaged kits made available from people like Andy Stanley, Craig Rochelle, Rick Warren and a few others.
Whenever I go on YouTube, I see videos of church after church offering what looks like the exact same sermon series entitled ‘Christmas At The Movies’, where in a desperate attempt to stay relevant, they preach messages on Hollywood movies where they attempt to pull the gospel out of films like ‘Diehard’, ‘Elf’, and many others.
These churches put on a lavish spectacle that draws them in by the hundreds of thousands, entertaining them with the world followed by a lukewarm ‘gospel invitation’ at the end. This is not a church service, this is worldly entertainment, and the worst part, it’s not even original, the pastors are purchasing premade sermon kits. So why do I write this on Christmas Eve? For a few reasons.

Harbinger’s Daily
By Dan Price: There are some days I want Jesus to come back so badly that I feel I can barely breathe. One more day of the heartache of our sin-cursed world just might be too much. Another shocking experience of watching the world twist itself into knots as everyone crows their own “authentic truth.” Feeling the cynicism sneak into my heart, whispering that there is no accountability for injustice or wickedness. The constant grind of our culture’s selfishness, cruelty, and frivolity weighs so heavy on my soul that sometimes I can’t help but cry out, “Come back, Jesus!”
Do you ever have days you feel the same?
Did you know there are some people who believe that Jesus already has come back?
It’s true, as shocking as that sounds.
Ultimately, every opinion on eschatology boils down to issues of hermeneutics, the discipline of how you interpret the Bible. Because I hold to a literal (historical, grammatical) interpretation of Scripture, even when reading prophecy, I naturally use a futurist interpretive method. In other words, when I read prophecies or promises that have obviously not been fulfilled physically, I assume, like the original audience, that those events must still be in the future. This basic principle of hermeneutics leads to a premillennial systematic theology of eschatology. Those that hold other positions on eschatology? Their hermeneutics led them there too.
One prominent position on how to read and interpret prophecy is called Preterism, preter being a Latin word meaning “past.” This style of interpretation teaches that all (or most) of the Bible’s prophecies have already been fulfilled.
And yes, in its most extreme form, Preterism will tell you that Jesus has already come back, there is no future resurrection of the dead, and we are currently living in a spiritualized version of the New Heavens and New Earth! Preterism is on the rise in the American church, and Christians should be aware of some of the issues involved.

Prophecy News Watch
By PNW Staff: Against the backdrop of rising antisemitism and growing global instability, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar has issued a call that echoes both history and prophecy: Jews around the world should return home to Israel.
Speaking at the "J-50" Forum--an initiative Sa'ar launched in May to maintain direct, ongoing dialogue with Jewish leaders worldwide--he urged Jews in the United Kingdom, Australia, France, Canada, and Belgium to make Aliyah, the return to the Jewish homeland.
"We stand for the right of every Jew to live in security anywhere," Sa'ar said. "But today, I am calling on Jews...to immigrate to Israel." He continued, "We have learned lessons from our history. I believe it is my duty to do so and to enable Jews to raise their children in a non-hostile environment, in their true home: the Land of Israel."
The statement was not made lightly. It reflects a sobering reality: Jewish communities across the West are increasingly feeling like guests in societies that once promised tolerance but now offer uncertainty, intimidation, and, in some cases, open hostility.
Why Israel Is Making This Call Now
The surge in antisemitism since October 7 has been dramatic and global. Jewish neighborhoods have been targeted, synagogues vandalized, students harassed on university campuses, and public expressions of Jewish identity discouraged or outright attacked. In cities once considered among the safest in the world for Jewish life, families now ask whether it is wise to wear a yarmulke, display a mezuzah, or speak openly about Israel.
Israel was founded precisely to answer moments like this.
The modern Jewish state exists not only as a political entity but as a permanent refuge--a homeland meant to ensure that Jews would never again be entirely dependent on the goodwill of others for their survival. Sa'ar's appeal reflects that founding logic: history shows that antisemitism rarely remains contained, and warnings ignored too often come too late.

Israel 365 News
By Elie Mischel: Israel turned America’s biggest military flop into a superweapon—now Turkey wants it.
The F-35 fighter jet nearly bankrupted America’s defense industry. Then Israel used it to disable Iran’s entire air force in a single night. Israel took a $55 billion disaster and transformed it into the deadliest aircraft on earth. Now Turkey—the top patron of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood—wants one.
In a fascinating interview with Rabbi Pesach Wolicki, Executive Director of Israel365 Action, former Israeli Ambassador Yoram Ettinger revealed why handing the F-35 to Erdogan’s Turkey wouldn’t just threaten Israel—it could topple every pro-American government in the Middle East and turn the region into a launching pad for anti-Western terrorism.
From Disaster to Dominance: How Israel Saved the F-35
In 2018, the F-35 was America’s most expensive mistake. After burning through $55 billion in research and development, the stealth fighter was plagued by mechanical failures. Aerospace experts wrote it off as a boondoggle that would never work in real combat.
Then Israel got its hands on it.
“It was supposed to be a bane rather than boon for American defense,” Ettinger said. But Israel became the first nation to use the F-35 in actual combat operations—and everything changed.

Geller Report
By Pamela Geller: Chanukah attacks. Christmas attacks. And now this.
But we will lose our heads (literally) if we don’t respect Islam and all it’s genocidal imperatives. Infidels across the world are murdered for perceived violations of blasphemy under Islam.
How much are free people expected to endure before saying enough? How many holidays must be desecrated, how many innocents threatened, before the West remembers that appeasement is not tolerance — it is surrender?
Jesus was a Jew, born in Judea (not the “West Bank”) during the Roman period. At the time of his birth, there was such thing as a Palestinian. or a fake country called “Palestine.” There has never, in recorded history, been a nation called Palestine.
Referring to Jesus as a “Palestinian” is enormously insulting to Christians and Jews. But that’s the point, isn’t it?
When Jesus was growing up, he spoke Hebrew (and Aramaic), celebrated Jewish holidays with his Jewish family. . He was often referred to as rabbi, and observed the Jewish special days.
Jesus was not a terrorist.
There was no Islam when Jesus was born.

By Daniel Greenfield: Even as Christians continue to suffer in Nigeria, Pope Leo chose to exclude them from his “Urbi et Orbi” Christmas message in which he claimed that “Jesus took upon himself our fragility, identifying with each one of us: with those who have nothing left and have lost everything, like the inhabitants of Gaza; with those who are prey to hunger and poverty, like the Yemeni people; with those who are fleeing their homeland to seek a future elsewhere, like the many refugees and migrants who cross the Mediterranean or traverse the American continent.”
The majority of those he’s specifically invoking in national contexts are Muslims in Gaza, and Yemen Muslims and other Muslim mass migrants trying to “cross the Mediterranean” to reach Europe.
But he also spares a thought for the non-Muslim illegal aliens trying to invade America.
What’s interesting about the international prayers in the pope’s message is that the nations and territories that he mentions, “Lebanon, Palestine, Israel and Syria”, “Sudan, South Sudan, Mali, Burkina Faso and the Democratic Republic of Congo”, Haiti, Burma, Cambodia, Thailand, Yemen, Gaza, are mostly non-Christian. Apart from Haiti and Congo, they’re non-Christians areas.
And Pope Leo can’t help but exclude Nigeria, where Christian churches continue to be attacked by Muslims. Out of all that benevolence and all the prayers for peace in Muslim countries, he can’t seem to find the time to express anything for Nigeria’s Christians.

The Economic Collapse
By Michael Snyder: So many seniors that were once so full of life are now just shadows of their former selves. It can be really easy to assume that they are “just getting old” and that nothing unusual is happening to them. But the truth is that in so many cases the reason why America’s seniors are shutting down is because they are simply being overmedicated.
Our entire medical system has been designed to push pills, and so when our seniors seek medical help that is usually the solution that they are offered. As you will see below, the proportion of our seniors that are on at least 8 pharmaceutical drugs is truly alarming. Of course those that consume pharmaceutical drug cocktails on a daily basis for an extended period of time are quite likely to experience very serious consequences.
Most people don’t realize that modern terms such as “pharmacy” and “pharmaceutical” originally come from the Greek word “pharmakeia”…
We are the most drugged nation that the world has ever seen, and this is particularly true for our seniors.

The word “pharmacy” has a fascinating origin story that’s as complex as the practice itself.No society in the entire history of the planet has taken “pharmakeia” to the extremes that we have.
It comes from the Greek word “pharmakeia”, which referred to “the practice of the druggist”. But here is the twist: “phármakon”, the root of the term, was a double-edged sword – it meant a plant or herb that could be used for either healing or harmful purposes, blurring the line between medicine and poison.
We are the most drugged nation that the world has ever seen, and this is particularly true for our seniors.

The Long Shadow Of Islamic History
Synopsis: Ecclesiastes 1:9 poetically tells us that history always repeats itself, and unfortunately, humanity often fails to learn from it, has a tendency to rewrite it, and in doing so sets the stage for even greater consequences ahead. In our December 2025 Prophecy Update, we examine the history of Islam, its relationship with Israel, the U.S., and the world, see why failing to grasp the Muslim method of operation can be catastrophic, and, most importantly, learn how both history and present-day developments are helping to set up systems that the Bible says will arise in the End Times.
