Dear friends, as I explain in my 2016 series called “In the Ages to Come”, and as some of you may already know, from the year 2000 to 2016, I was the owner of the domain name endtimeprophecy.net, and my website and ministry was known as “Endtime Prophecy Net”.
However, as I explain in the aforementioned series and elsewhere, for a variety of reasons, seven years ago in 2016, I relinquished ownership of the aforementioned domain name, and I switched my website to the billkochman.com domain name instead. It was also at that time that I changed the name of my website and ministry to Bill’s Bible Basics.
Of course, by that time, I had already created thousands of graphics which had the endtimeprophecy.net URL included on them, as a means to drive traffic to my website. The result is that for at least sixteen years, thousands of my graphics with “endtimeprophecy.net” on them were propagated all across the Internet via the various social networks.
After the 2016 domain name change and the website name change, I immediately began redoing all of my graphics with “billkochman.com” included on them, instead of “endtimeprophecy.net”, and all new graphics since then have been made with “billkochman.com” on them as well.
But, alas, not long after that, a problem developed! You see, after I let go of the “endtimeprophecy.net” domain name, some unknown domain name squatter — that is, people who buy and sell domain names, sometimes just to sit on them — purchased “endtimeprophecy.net” and they began using the domain name to advertise a hotel chain. It had, and has, absolutely nothing to do with the Bible or with Bible prophecy. What they are doing is obviously dishonest, and an intentional deception, in order to draw people to their website, by using a popular Christian phrase and domain name.
Over the years, I have tried contacting the current owner of the “endtimeprophecy.net” domain name several times, and requesting that they stop doing what they are doing. Sadly, to this day, they have never responded to any of my emails. It’s just a wall of silence from them. Furthermore, they continue to use the “endtimeprophecy.net” domain name to advertise their hotel chain.
Worse yet, in order to purposely deceive people — particularly Christians — and trick search engine bots into driving traffic to their website, near the top of their page, the domain name squatter includes portions of one of my very early versions of the Endtime Prophecy Net website from almost 18 years ago!
But that is not all. If someone sees the “endtimeprophecy.net” URL on one of my older graphics somewhere on one of the social networks, or anywhere else for that matter, and tries to go to “endtimeprophecy.net”, depending on their security settings, their web browser will display an error message and warning, advising the user to NOT proceed, because the bogus website is NOT safe! However, if the person chooses to ignore the web browser warning, and proceeds anyway, they will be taken to the URL below, and they will see everything that I described above:
https://www.hotels-atlanta.net/en/endtimeprophecy.html
So, it is for the aforementioned reasons, that I advise and request that anyone on any of the social networks who may still be sharing some of my old pre-2016 graphics which have “endtimeprophecy.net” included on them, please immediately remove said graphics from all of your social network pages. Failure to do so will lead your friends to a bogus website which is NOT about our Christian faith. In fact, the reason why I am posting this current message on my Bill’s Bible Basics blog, is because just this past week, I came across two people on Facebook who recently used two of my old graphics with “endtimeprophecy.net” on them.
As I said, all modern versions of my graphics now have “billkochman.com” on them. You are free to share these new and updated graphics from whatever social networks you participate on. Or, if you would like to see all of the graphics I have created to date — there are over 4,300 of them arranged by topic — you are welcome to visit my Bill’s Bible Basics Graphics Library at the URL below. There are currently 4,300+ images there:

God bless you, and thank you for taking the time to read this.
