NTEB BIBLE RADIO: Rightly Dividing

For days now, the rhetoric coming out of Washington had all the markings of escalation. President Donald Trump issued a hard 48-hour ultimatum to Iran: reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face devastating U.S. strikes on critical infrastructure. The language was not vague. It was direct, forceful, and absolute. And now? That deadline has come and gone and has quietly turned into a 5-day deadline with t...

There is a growing insistence in modern Christianity that the rapture of the Church can happen at any moment, with nothing needing to take place beforehand. It sounds comforting, it preaches well, and it has been repeated so often that many now accept it as unquestionable truth. The only problem? The apostle Paul flatly told you the exact opposite. “That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubl...

The Bible doctrine of the Pretribulation Rapture of the body of Christ is an oft-ignored and much maligned subject here at the end of the falling away The blessed hope of every born again Bible believer living in the Church Age dispensation is the Pretribulation Rapture, or catching away, of the body of Christ. Paul says that we are to speak about it, teach it, preach it and to comfort one another...

There’s something deeply unsettling about the way this Iran war is unfolding, and it’s not just the bombs falling or the rising body count. It’s the tone, it’s the presentation, it’s the overly-crafted branding. What we are witnessing right now feels less like a traditional war and more like a carefully scripted production — a geopolitical reality show where Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, and Benjami...

A sitting Israeli prime minister like Benjamin 'Bibi' Netanyahu does not just “disappear” from public view for days on end without explanation — not in a region that is the geopolitical epicenter of the world, and certainly not in a time when every move in the Middle East is tied directly to end times momentum. When the cameras go dark and the microphones go silent, that’s not transparency — that’...

If you’re just scanning headlines, you might think Iran is suddenly calling the shots in the Middle East war. Drone swarms, missile barrages, oil routes under threat—Tehran looks bold, aggressive, and in control. But that surface-level read misses what’s actually happening. Iran isn’t leading this war. Iran is reacting to it, reacting hard, and it’s threatening to turn Trump’s ‘excursion’ into an...

Think about this. US tech billionaire and MAGA donor Peter Thiel started a series of closed-door lectures about the antichrist in Rome on Sunday, putting him on collision course with Pope Leo XIV, the Catholic Church’s first American pontiff. Over in France, Emmanuel Macron said the other day “The unchecked escalation we are witnessing is plunging the entire Middle East into chaos, with major cons...

One of the most amazing things about John 3:16, the verse that I got saved on 35 years ago, is that it makes the connection between John’s gospel and Paul’s gospel. John 3:16 shows us how to get saved in perfect harmony with 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. Paul tells you what the gospel is, and John shows you how to apply it. Earlier in John 3, Jesus gives us the qualification for salvation in the Kingdom o...

As Donald Trump’s war with Iran continues to spiral out of control, Washington has launched a massive propaganda blitz that is right out of Joseph Goebbels’s propaganda playbook telling you that the war is one, all is well, we are living in a Golden Age of unprecedented peace and prosperity. Nothing could be further from the truth. Putin is making billions in oil sales, 6 more US soldiers were kil...

For weeks now the world has been watching the conflict that many are calling “World War Trump” unfold in real time, and the situation is becoming clearer by the day. President Donald Trump has demanded “unconditional surrender” from Iran, while Tehran has responded with open defiance, calling that demand nothing more than a “dream.” Iran is not surrendering. Not today, not tomorrow, and certainly...

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, perhaps you’ve noticed that gas has gone up over $0.50 per gallon since the Iran War began, and should it continue into springtime, we could very well see a return to Biden-era gas prices of around $5.00 per gallon in a nationwide average. At that point, a recession would be a near guarantee. Man, this is a lot of bad news, so let me give you some good news. Ru...

Trump’s Department of War was created to wage war, and in Operation Epic Fury they appear to have their hands full as the carnage and chaos intensifies President Donald Trump knew exactly what he was doing when he changed the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War, appointing Pete Hegseth as his Secretary of War in the process. Trump 2.0 is nothing like Trump 1.0 who was a man...

The nations of the world can gather their leaders, sign their agreements, proclaim billions in humanitarian aid, and even form grand bodies like Donald Trump’s so-called Board of Peace — but until Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, returns to rule and reign from Jerusalem, every one of these human schemes will fall short and collapse. All of them, no exceptions. “For unto us a child is born, unto...

We are currently watching the incredible events unfolding in the Middle East, and they all point to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. But the larger and often overlooked picture is the instruction to wait upon the timing of the Lord, something not really talked about here in the closing moments of the Church Age.

The U.S. and Israel launched a major attack on Iran on Saturday, and U.S. President Donald Trump called on the Iranian public to “seize control of your destiny” by rising up against the Islamic leadership that has ruled the nation since 1979. The strikes opened a stunning new chapter in U.S. intervention in Iran and marked the second time in eight months that the Trump administration has used mili...

The headlines are swirling again — aircraft carriers repositioned, bombers forward deployed, evacuation advisories issued, Iran threatening retaliation, and President Trump warning Tehran that time is running out. Whether a strike comes this week, next month, or not at all is almost secondary to the larger reality staring us in the face: The Middle East is once again the prophetic epicenter of the...

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has admitted he had two affairs with Russian women while married to his now-ex-wife, Melinda French Gates, just like the Epstein Files says he did, and on Tuesday issued a groveling apology for his connection to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. This is a stunning revelation, and it begs the question as to why the Department of Justice has not launched a full-sca...

The Epstein files dropped like a neutron bomb — millions of pages, decades of corruption, names that reach into the highest levels of politics, academia, intelligence, finance, and media — and Washington responds with…nothing. No emergency hearings. No subpoenas. No resignations. No righteous outrage from the institutions that never shut up about “protecting democracy.” Just a deafening silence. T...

Yesterday, a bomb was dropped into the controversy surrounding the Epstein Files, and it came from Bill Gates ex-wife Melinda French Gates. She went on NPR and allowed herself to be asked about the references to Bill Gates in the Epstein Files. Were they true or not true? What she said, multiple times, catapulted the Epstein Files into the stratosphere, taking them from ‘conjecture and speculation...

According to the Jerusalem Post, the Department of Justice has removed files containing hundreds of mentions of US President Donald Trump from the latest wave of Epstein files documents that were released on Saturday. The removed files included descriptions of Trump sexually assaulting several women, some of them being underage. As it turns out, the Epstein Files Transparency Act is not so transpa...

Hebrews says Christ offered one sacrifice for sins for ever — and amen to that. But Hebrews never says God will never again use physical ordinances to govern worship among mortal nations. If that were the standard, then even the Lord’s Supper would be suspect. Bread and wine do not re-crucify Christ, and Millennial sacrifices do not diminish the cross. They do the same thing in different dispensat...

We are living in the day and age that Revelation 3 talks about, the lukewarm Laodicean Church Age. We are watching the professing Christian Church presenting itself as highly lukewarm for the things of God, but absolutely on fire for all the wrong things like Christian Nationalism, self-glorification and self-enrichment. We are watching wicked leaders ruling over wicked people, and they love it. M...

On his Truth Social account this morning, President Donald Trump posted “I am pleased to announce that I am nominating Kevin Warsh to be the CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM.” His very lengthy post went on to list what looks like Warsh’s entire CV, and it was quite impressive I must admit. But, oh, wait a minute now, looks like Trump left something out that should d...

We are following some crazy, but true stories for you today that serve to remind us of just where we are on the end times timeline. First, United States Marines in a restricted military training area near the MOUT (Military Operations in Urban Terrain) training town in Quantico, Virginia have come forward with a report that they saw a Bigfoot in wild at night last summer. Then we travel to the sta...

There was a repeating theme at this year’s World Economic Forum, and from the mouth of nearly all the speakers we heard the same thing over and over again. Every politician, every leader, and every tech titan and hedge fund mogul all said the same thing. But here’s the thing – what they didn’t know was that what they were saying was straight out of the King James Bible. “For God hath put in their...
