much, you may all be seated.
00:02:54.13\00:02:56.78
I'm going to invite
Pastor Doug to come for our
00:02:57.27\00:02:58.98
Bible questions.
Pastor Doug, we've got quite
00:02:59.01\00:03:01.65
a few video
questions that have come in.
00:03:01.68\00:03:03.47
Alright And, so we'll start
00:03:03.76\00:03:04.73
with a video
question. Evening friends.
00:03:04.74\00:03:07.23
My name is Steve, and
I'm eight years old and
00:03:07.70\00:03:11.12
my question is,
where is heaven now?
00:03:11.15\00:03:13.59
Where is heaven now?
When you say the word heaven
00:03:14.44\00:03:16.87
in the Bible, it's used
three ways. The Jews had
00:03:16.90\00:03:20.74
what they called the
first heaven, which is the
00:03:20.77\00:03:23.37
atmosphere around the earth,
that's the air you breathe,
00:03:23.40\00:03:26.39
where the birds fly and
the clouds float, that's
00:03:26.42\00:03:28.69
called the first
heaven. The second heaven is the
00:03:28.72\00:03:32.03
space where the sun and
the moon and the stars are.
00:03:32.06\00:03:34.81
So, when we aim our
telescope at the heavens
00:03:35.25\00:03:37.68
we're talking about the
space. The third heaven,
00:03:37.71\00:03:40.68
the apostle Paul talks
about that is paradise,
00:03:40.81\00:03:43.67
the dwelling place of God.
We always pray and we think
00:03:43.70\00:03:47.28
up in heaven, but you
know, depending on how the
00:03:47.76\00:03:51.23
world is turning,
heaven may not be up,
00:03:51.26\00:03:53.53
it might be that
way, it might be that way,
00:03:53.68\00:03:55.38
you never wanna say I
wanna go down to heaven
00:03:55.65\00:03:57.68
because you always think
about the other direction there.
00:03:57.96\00:04:00.01
But there is a place out
in space called heaven were
00:04:00.16\00:04:03.13
God dwells, the
constellation Orion is mentioned
00:04:03.16\00:04:07.02
a couple of times in
the Bible, many Christian
00:04:07.05\00:04:08.95
astronomers think that
its off through the corridors
00:04:08.98\00:04:12.52
of that Nebula and so
we are not exactly sure,
00:04:12.55\00:04:15.97
but its out there and we're
gonna talk about that during
00:04:16.00\00:04:19.55
our last study tomorrow night.
00:04:19.58\00:04:21.37
Pastor Doug, we've got
a question that somebody
00:04:21.65\00:04:23.56
sent in, if the devil
knows the Bible and that he will
00:04:23.59\00:04:27.22
be destroyed, why
doesn't he just change his mind
00:04:27.25\00:04:29.66
and ask God to forgive
him. Well, the devil had a long
00:04:29.69\00:04:33.87
time to change his
mind, he had a big opportunity
00:04:33.90\00:04:36.90
and he was too proud
and stubborn and, finally
00:04:36.93\00:04:40.05
the door of his
probation closed.
00:04:40.08\00:04:42.01
You know, it's like
in baseball you see three
00:04:42.70\00:04:45.43
strikes, you're out. God
gave him many chances and there
00:04:45.46\00:04:47.84
are no more chances
and he knows, it says in
00:04:47.87\00:04:50.95
Revelation chapter 12.
The devil knows his time
00:04:50.98\00:04:53.54
is short, so instead of
being kind or apologizing,
00:04:53.57\00:04:57.90
he is trying to be as
destructive as he can be,
00:04:58.18\00:05:00.85
he is too proud, and he
is too stubborn to apologize.
00:05:01.06\00:05:04.54
Oh! We have another
video question, Pastor Doug.
00:05:05.18\00:05:07.45
My name is Rosie,
I am 12 years old and
00:05:08.84\00:05:10.85
my question is, since God
can do anything, why didn't
00:05:10.88\00:05:13.81
he save us without
the death of Christ.
00:05:13.84\00:05:15.93
Since God can do anything,
why can't he or how come
00:05:16.76\00:05:20.28
he can't save us
without Jesus needing to die.
00:05:20.31\00:05:22.57
The fact the Jesus needed
to die tells us how important
00:05:23.21\00:05:27.18
God's law is, and how deadly
sin is. There was no other
00:05:27.21\00:05:32.21
way because God is a good
God and he is a just God, there
00:05:32.24\00:05:36.52
is no other opportunity
that he had. It's like a
00:05:36.55\00:05:39.40
story I heard one time
about this Crown Prince.
00:05:39.43\00:05:41.84
He was a Prince, and
he was a Prince in Arabia
00:05:42.06\00:05:44.78
and his father had a
lot of wives. He had, they
00:05:44.81\00:05:46.96
called it a Harem or a Harem,
and nobody was ever supposed
00:05:46.99\00:05:51.16
to look in to the chambers
of the Harem where all the
00:05:51.19\00:05:54.55
women lived. But the Prince
one day, if he did his eyes
00:05:54.58\00:05:57.54
were gonna be knocked
out, if anybody went in and
00:05:57.57\00:06:01.49
and looked to in the
Harem without the king's
00:06:01.52\00:06:03.54
permission, their eyes
were plucked out. Well, the
00:06:03.57\00:06:05.80
Crown Prince said, I am
the Crown Prince, I can do
00:06:05.83\00:06:07.59
whatever I want, so one
day his son went marching off
00:06:07.62\00:06:11.22
into the quarters of
the wives and everyone
00:06:11.25\00:06:13.60
said Oh! That's
against the law of the king
00:06:13.63\00:06:15.84
and pretty soon word came
to the king and the king said,
00:06:16.48\00:06:19.10
what shall I do?
My law says nobody,
00:06:19.13\00:06:22.77
but he is my son, I
love him, but I am a king,
00:06:23.44\00:06:26.88
so you know what the
king did, he said in order
00:06:27.67\00:06:29.00
to be just, in order to
be loving, he plucked out
00:06:29.03\00:06:32.47
one of his son's eyes
and one of his own. So they
00:06:32.50\00:06:35.46
could still both see. See
God was faced with this problem
00:06:35.49\00:06:38.94
that we broke his law, and
the penalty was Sin is dead,
00:06:39.71\00:06:42.52
he said, I love you so much,
I am gonna give you a chance,
00:06:42.55\00:06:44.69
I'll become a man, I'll
come to earth and I will die
00:06:44.72\00:06:48.65
for you, if you trust in
me, you'll get another chance,
00:06:48.68\00:06:52.59
and so there was no other
way. Pastor Doug its getting
00:06:53.36\00:06:57.34
closed to the end of
October and you can walk toward
00:06:57.37\00:07:01.36
the store and you see all
the Halloween decorations,
00:07:01.39\00:07:03.55
so this person is asking
people say that Halloween
00:07:04.09\00:07:06.36
is the devil's birthday,
is it true? And why can't
00:07:06.39\00:07:10.09
we participate in
Halloween activities?
00:07:10.12\00:07:12.95
You know, tonight our
lesson's dealing with the
00:07:13.81\00:07:15.41
subject of death and
some of the devils tricks.
00:07:15.44\00:07:17.89
And, I know the kids like
dressing up and the idea of
00:07:19.86\00:07:22.57
candy in door-to-door
can seem very appealing, but
00:07:22.60\00:07:24.97
if there is a holiday
that Christians should avoid
00:07:25.40\00:07:28.77
I would think it's a holiday
that has to do with the devil
00:07:29.25\00:07:31.84
and witches and scary
things and death and so I don't
00:07:31.87\00:07:35.83
believe the Christians can
support that, the history of
00:07:36.48\00:07:39.08
Halloween it's not
from the Bible. A lot of it
00:07:39.11\00:07:41.73
has to do with the
occult and things like that, but
00:07:41.76\00:07:46.24
you need to be careful.
You know, Pastor Doug I heard
00:07:47.16\00:07:49.46
a story once about a little
boy who had for many years
00:07:49.49\00:07:53.26
dressed up and gone out
and trick or treated, but his
00:07:53.67\00:07:56.14
parents became Christian
and they didn't think that that
00:07:56.17\00:07:58.69
was something that their
son should do and so mother
00:07:58.72\00:08:02.05
explained to the little boy
we are not going to be doing
00:08:02.08\00:08:03.77
this again and she was
walking down the hall way
00:08:03.80\00:08:07.50
and her son came out
from his bedroom dressed up
00:08:07.53\00:08:10.52
like the ghost. Now,
she knew what was happening,
00:08:10.55\00:08:13.53
he was gonna go do trick
or treating. Mother said,
00:08:13.56\00:08:16.01
no we don't do that
anymore in the house and
00:08:16.04\00:08:18.00
the little boy thought
for moment, scratched his head
00:08:18.03\00:08:20.46
and finally said, but
mommy I am dressed up like
00:08:20.49\00:08:22.43
the Holy Ghost.
Well, Pastor Doug I don't
00:08:22.46\00:08:26.09
think there is
anything holy about Halloween.
00:08:26.12\00:08:28.34
That's good. We
have our final question,
00:08:29.14\00:08:31.19
a video question. Okay.
00:08:31.22\00:08:32.51
My name is Diana,
I am 11 years old,
00:08:34.42\00:08:36.66
I would like to know if the
Holy Spirit can talk to you.
00:08:36.69\00:08:40.53
Can the Holy Spirit
talk to you? You know, the
00:08:41.26\00:08:44.07
Holy Spirit talks to you
all the time. Matter of fact,
00:08:44.10\00:08:46.36
I have got something, we
just happen to have something,
00:08:46.39\00:08:48.73
a volunteer who maybe to
go in the who has not been
00:08:49.06\00:08:52.15
up yet to the mystery
chest. Judith, you haven't been
00:08:52.18\00:08:55.66
up to the mystery
chest yet, alright come on,
00:08:55.69\00:08:57.46
look in there, look in the
mystery chest, there will be
00:08:57.49\00:08:59.40
a bowl and in the bowl
you might find something that
00:08:59.43\00:09:01.87
a person can listen with.
Okay, go and reach and there
00:09:01.90\00:09:05.74
is big bowl with two
big rubber things, they look
00:09:05.77\00:09:07.88
sort of like ears. Okay,
now what was the question
00:09:07.91\00:09:19.47
can the Holy
Spirit? Can the Holy Spirit
00:09:19.50\00:09:21.42
speak to us? My
ears are so big, they
00:09:21.45\00:09:36.88
barely fit in here, all by
themselves. Now, the reason
00:09:36.91\00:09:42.72
I did this, is for one
thing, it keeps your attention,
00:09:42.75\00:09:44.88
the other reason I did it
is because you got two kinds
00:09:45.88\00:09:48.68
of ears, you got the
kinds of ears where you want to
00:09:48.71\00:09:51.27
hear the things you
want to hear, and then
00:09:51.30\00:09:52.56
there is a spiritual ear
and you can pray that God
00:09:52.59\00:09:56.09
will help enlarge your
spiritual ears, so that you
00:09:56.12\00:09:59.47
can hear his voice. Did
you know there is a scripture
00:09:59.50\00:10:01.54
that talks about this?
In Revelation chapter 3,
00:10:01.57\00:10:05.18
verse 6, it says, he
that has ears let him hear
00:10:05.21\00:10:11.33
what the spirit says
to the church. Does God's
00:10:11.90\00:10:15.55
Spirit talk to us?
Yeah, you know, problem is
00:10:15.58\00:10:18.89
down here on earth
the Lord sees that we go
00:10:18.92\00:10:20.92
around like this and
we don't hear what he is
00:10:20.95\00:10:23.93
saying to us. I'll let
you have these, if you promise
00:10:23.96\00:10:27.97
not to play with them
until after the program, okay
00:10:28.00\00:10:29.86
Okay. Thank you Judith.
00:10:29.89\00:10:31.21
Was that our last question.
That was the last question
00:10:31.75\00:10:34.14
and we're gonna invite
our amazing adventure singers
00:10:34.47\00:10:36.96
to come forward and
they will be singing
00:10:36.99\00:10:38.97
for us, 'he will be exalted.'
00:10:39.00\00:10:41.03
The King of heaven at his
rightful place on heaven's
00:10:54.74\00:11:03.03
throne, he went to Galilee,
where he suffered all alone.
00:11:03.06\00:11:14.63
The king was humbled when
he bore the sin of every man,
00:11:15.15\00:11:25.42
but one day awaits
the lord is coming again.
00:11:26.04\00:11:35.62
He will be exalted to
the highest place, every eye
00:11:35.95\00:11:47.60
shall see him and
behold his place, to the mighty
00:11:47.63\00:11:57.99
throne of Jesus, Jesus,
all the worship we will bring
00:11:58.02\00:12:07.70
and proclaim him lord
of lords and king of kings.
00:12:08.20\00:12:17.86
The thunder crashes to
pronounce Christ throne
00:12:23.59\00:12:30.51
upon the earth, the
lightening rushes to proclaim
00:12:30.54\00:12:39.13
his master's word, though
men reject him, Christ alone
00:12:39.16\00:12:49.62
shall reign supreme at
last, all his enemies shall
00:12:49.65\00:12:59.25
wither like the grass.
He will be exalted to the
00:12:59.28\00:13:10.97
highest place, every
eye shall see him and behold
00:13:11.00\00:13:22.31
his place, to the
mighty throne of Jesus, Jesus,
00:13:22.34\00:13:32.48
all the worship we
will bring and proclaim him
00:13:32.51\00:13:40.00
lord of lords and
king of kings, and
00:13:40.03\00:13:48.57
proclaim him lord of lords and
00:13:48.60\00:13:53.43
king of kings, king
of kings, king of kings.
00:13:53.46\00:14:11.36
Beautiful, thank you
so much, I have just been
00:14:16.31\00:14:19.18
very thrilled with
the wonderful music that
00:14:19.21\00:14:22.77
Gratziela and her singers
and Kelly had been providing
00:14:22.80\00:14:25.62
for us it's been a
real blessing. Well, it's so
00:14:25.65\00:14:28.21
good to see each of you
here with us in Richardson,
00:14:28.24\00:14:30.81
Texas and our
friends who are watching. Oh!
00:14:30.84\00:14:33.54
It's exciting to hear all
the emails and the notes and
00:14:33.57\00:14:36.69
the pictures that are coming
in from all over the country,
00:14:36.72\00:14:38.84
all over the world, of people
who are joining us on this
00:14:39.18\00:14:42.04
amazing adventure.
Well, tonight we have a
00:14:42.07\00:14:45.06
special lesson that may
seem a little bit spooky and its
00:14:45.09\00:14:49.78
dealing with the
subject of Whistling through
00:14:49.81\00:14:52.33
the Graveyard. Now, you know,
there is a cemetery in Paris,
00:14:52.36\00:14:59.72
and they are catacombs
and these catacombs are filled
00:15:00.86\00:15:06.09
with the bones of about a
160,000 deceased Parisians.
00:15:06.12\00:15:11.48
What happened is during
the 18th century. There,
00:15:12.56\00:15:15.99
at the cemeteries in Paris
just got so overcrowded and
00:15:16.02\00:15:19.05
unsanitary that they
finally needed to start burying
00:15:19.08\00:15:22.13
people underground and
they had all of these old
00:15:22.16\00:15:25.06
mines underneath the
city. A 190 miles of mines and
00:15:25.09\00:15:33.11
they disinterred, they
dug up all the people from the
00:15:33.14\00:15:36.31
cemeteries and they put
them down and they lined the
00:15:36.34\00:15:39.06
walls from mile after
mile with bones and skulls,
00:15:39.09\00:15:42.78
they could have just throw
them out, cause they didn't
00:15:43.29\00:15:44.62
want to be disrespectful
so they buried them
00:15:44.65\00:15:46.31
under the city and
people come from around
00:15:46.34\00:15:48.69
the world and they have
got about Oh! 100,000 people
00:15:48.72\00:15:52.56
visit a year looking
at all of these bones
00:15:52.59\00:15:56.93
in the catacombs.
They only open about a mile
00:15:56.96\00:15:59.92
of the catacombs, because
years ago one fellow wandered
00:16:00.18\00:16:03.72
off on his own and
they didn't find him until
00:16:03.75\00:16:06.72
11 years later and he
wasn't alive. That would be
00:16:06.75\00:16:12.40
terrible to get lost in
that spooky place or to be down
00:16:12.43\00:16:14.79
there when the lights
get turned off. You ever have
00:16:14.82\00:16:17.38
to walk through a
cemetery at night does that make
00:16:17.41\00:16:20.84
you feel spooky. One
time before I was a Christian,
00:16:20.87\00:16:24.51
I ran away from home
when I was 13 years old and
00:16:25.85\00:16:28.60
I was by myself and I had
to walk through a cemetery
00:16:28.63\00:16:31.86
at night, it was the shortest
way to go to get the mount
00:16:32.13\00:16:35.60
where I was going
and it kind of scared me
00:16:35.63\00:16:37.67
a little bit, I was looking
around, I was just hoping
00:16:37.70\00:16:39.40
no one was gonna
reach out of their grave
00:16:39.43\00:16:40.74
and grab me. Because you
know, people are sometimes
00:16:40.77\00:16:44.12
scared of death and
people are scared of cemeteries
00:16:44.15\00:16:48.76
and ghosts and things
like that, but then I read
00:16:49.55\00:16:52.32
the Bible and I found out
the truth about what happens
00:16:52.35\00:16:54.98
when you die and I realized
we don't have to be scared.
00:16:55.01\00:16:58.21
Now, you think about it when
you are young, you don't like
00:16:59.03\00:17:01.03
to think about it, but
you're born and you grow up,
00:17:01.06\00:17:04.40
and then you pick your
career and you grow old and if
00:17:05.48\00:17:09.23
you grow old
enough what happens.
00:17:09.26\00:17:10.82
Oh! It's we don't even
like to think about it,
00:17:11.69\00:17:13.40
but it's a fact, if you
live long enough you die.
00:17:13.43\00:17:15.25
You know, you're
living in a generation that
00:17:16.06\00:17:17.70
might not die. There
are some who will be alive
00:17:17.73\00:17:22.80
when Jesus comes and they
won't die, they'll be changed
00:17:22.83\00:17:26.09
and given a glorified
body and go right to heaven,
00:17:26.27\00:17:29.50
there is a few people
who haven't die, did you
00:17:30.65\00:17:32.21
know that, they lived
and we're going to talk about
00:17:32.24\00:17:34.66
that tonight. Let's get to
our lesson, we got a lot of
00:17:34.69\00:17:37.07
stuff to cover and I
think you are gonna find this an
00:17:37.10\00:17:39.25
amazing adventure
tonight. Question number one,
00:17:39.28\00:17:42.02
what really happens when
you die and where do you go?
00:17:42.97\00:17:46.84
What does the Bible say?
Well, to first understand
00:17:46.87\00:17:50.01
this we sort of need
to backup a little bit and
00:17:50.04\00:17:52.03
explains how does God
create people. It says in
00:17:52.06\00:17:55.77
Genesis chapter 2, verse
7. And, the Lord God formed
00:17:55.80\00:17:59.52
man from the dust of
the ground and he breathed
00:17:59.55\00:18:03.49
into his nostrils the
breath of life. The what?
00:18:03.52\00:18:07.76
Breath of life and
man became a living soul.
00:18:08.44\00:18:12.19
So, God took the dust,
the elements of the earth,
00:18:12.22\00:18:15.34
it was kind of like clay
and he breathe the special
00:18:15.37\00:18:18.22
power of life that God
has into his creatures.
00:18:18.25\00:18:21.42
All creatures breathe, did
you know that, did you know
00:18:21.78\00:18:24.66
fish breathe, they use
their gills, plants breathe,
00:18:24.69\00:18:28.76
worms breathe through
their skin, everything
00:18:29.58\00:18:32.76
breathes and God
breathed this breath of life
00:18:32.79\00:18:36.25
into Adam, he came
alive. When something dies it's
00:18:36.28\00:18:40.11
like creation in
reverse, you separate the breath
00:18:40.14\00:18:43.82
of life from the
elements of the earth, the dust,
00:18:43.85\00:18:48.09
the clay and they die,
they turn back to dust,
00:18:48.12\00:18:51.55
that's why it says in
Ecclesiastes 12 when someone
00:18:51.76\00:18:54.28
dies the dust will return
to the earth as it was, and the
00:18:54.31\00:18:58.61
spirit returns to God who
gave it, that spirit there is
00:18:58.64\00:19:02.92
what confuses
people. So let's go to
00:19:02.95\00:19:04.42
the next question.
Number two, what is the
00:19:04.45\00:19:08.21
"Spirit" that returns
to God when someone dies?
00:19:08.24\00:19:12.10
Some people think
that, if you are saying and
00:19:12.65\00:19:15.26
you die, this little ghostly
butterfly jumps out of you.
00:19:15.29\00:19:18.87
And, it flies off back to
God, but the Bible doesn't
00:19:19.69\00:19:23.05
teach that, the Bible
teaches that the spirit of all
00:19:23.08\00:19:25.61
creatures when they die
return to God. Let me give
00:19:25.64\00:19:29.73
you proof, that word
spirit means breath of life.
00:19:29.76\00:19:33.15
Job chapter 27, verse 23.
The spirit of God is in my
00:19:33.90\00:19:38.29
nostrils, have you ever
thought that you have got
00:19:38.32\00:19:42.04
a Spirit in your nose,
the word Spirit there in the
00:19:42.07\00:19:46.71
Old Testament it's
from the Hebrew word Ruach
00:19:46.74\00:19:49.61
and it means wind or
breath, in Greek it's a word
00:19:49.64\00:19:52.83
Pneuma, Pneuma, men use
pneumatic tools, that means
00:19:53.22\00:19:57.33
it's got air that
drives it. Have you ever heard
00:19:57.36\00:19:59.91
someone getting sick
and they getting pneumonia,
00:19:59.94\00:20:01.61
that's because that affects
their breathing. And so it
00:20:02.70\00:20:05.68
says in the Bible
that the Pneuma, the Ruach,
00:20:05.71\00:20:08.43
the breath of life
returns to God who gave it.
00:20:08.46\00:20:11.05
It's not a little
ghost. The Bible says, the body
00:20:11.08\00:20:14.58
without the Spirit is
dead. And, so when a person dies
00:20:14.61\00:20:19.82
the Spirit returns to
God. Now, let me see if we can
00:20:20.03\00:20:24.22
illustrate this.
Well, let's go to question
00:20:24.25\00:20:26.50
number three first. If
the "Spirit" is the breath of
00:20:26.53\00:20:30.61
life then what is a
"soul?" Remember the Bible says
00:20:30.64\00:20:34.32
that when God first made
man, we just read this in
00:20:34.82\00:20:37.21
Genesis chapter 2, verse
7. He formed him from the
00:20:37.24\00:20:40.38
dust of the ground and
God breathed into to him
00:20:40.41\00:20:43.35
the breath of life into
his nostrils and he became
00:20:43.38\00:20:47.20
a living soul or a
living being. A soul is
00:20:47.23\00:20:52.69
what you have when
you put together the dust
00:20:52.72\00:20:56.64
of the clay with the
Spirit of God equals a soul.
00:20:56.67\00:20:59.58
If you separate the
clay from the breath of life
00:21:00.20\00:21:04.06
that God gives,
where does the soul go?
00:21:04.09\00:21:06.47
The soul doesn't, it's
nothing anymore. Alright,
00:21:08.56\00:21:11.70
now I do need a volunteer
at this point? I just need one.
00:21:11.73\00:21:15.31
Let me see here, young
man have you had a chance yet?
00:21:16.57\00:21:19.16
Alright, come on up. Go
ahead and reach there in the
00:21:19.19\00:21:22.56
mystery chest, you're
gonna find, you'll some bread
00:21:22.59\00:21:25.88
and some cheese. See if
you can find that, it might be
00:21:25.91\00:21:28.16
in a bowl in there and you
can take that out. Oops, did
00:21:28.19\00:21:33.15
that get spook you a
little bit. Go ahead you can
00:21:33.18\00:21:39.86
grab the bread and the cheese.
00:21:39.89\00:21:40.93
Now, I know that's a
Halloween trick, but I'm
00:21:44.12\00:21:46.31
using it is part of
my illustration tonight.
00:21:46.34\00:21:48.81
Alright now, what's that? Bread.
00:21:48.84\00:21:51.33
That's bread, you want to
hold the bread, I could use
00:21:51.49\00:21:53.25
one more person here,
here young lady come here,
00:21:53.28\00:21:56.30
can you unwrap that for
me. We're gonna put this back
00:21:57.23\00:22:01.41
out of the way here
for a second. Alright,
00:22:01.44\00:22:06.13
now what is that,
what are you holding?
00:22:06.16\00:22:07.34
Bread. Whole
wheat. I want you to
00:22:07.37\00:22:08.90
know, now what does
she got, it's actually
00:22:08.93\00:22:11.92
veggie-cheese I just
wanna go on record, we eat that
00:22:11.95\00:22:15.42
in our family, so we
might use it, I had to buy
00:22:15.45\00:22:17.20
a whole pack. Alright
you got that, so what do
00:22:17.23\00:22:20.15
you got there, you can
call it cheese, that's okay,
00:22:20.18\00:22:21.88
what is it? Cheese.
00:22:22.58\00:22:23.77
Cheese, alright, what do you
say when they take a picture.
00:22:23.80\00:22:25.73
"Cheese." Okay,
now open up your bread,
00:22:26.72\00:22:29.86
you place the cheese
there in the bread, close
00:22:30.81\00:22:33.15
the bread, now
what is it. Sandwich.
00:22:33.18\00:22:35.89
Sandwich, how many
agree, that is it, it's not much
00:22:35.92\00:22:38.31
of a sandwich. When you
heat that up, what do you
00:22:38.34\00:22:40.44
call it? Well, he is holding
it'd be a boy cheese right.
00:22:40.47\00:22:45.06
Okay, now open that
bread backup, little easy
00:22:46.95\00:22:50.62
take the cheese out of there,
okay, now what do you got,
00:22:50.65\00:22:53.71
you get a bread,
where did the sandwich go,
00:22:54.97\00:22:57.94
it stops being a sandwich,
when you separate the two,
00:22:59.61\00:23:02.34
you see what I am saying,
it's no longer a sandwich,
00:23:02.37\00:23:04.93
it's not much of a sandwich,
I mean if your mother said
00:23:04.96\00:23:06.72
I made you a sandwich and
you open your lunch and go,
00:23:06.75\00:23:09.34
where is the sandwich
mom? Right. You'd be pretty
00:23:10.84\00:23:13.54
disappointed or she
said I made you a sandwich
00:23:13.57\00:23:16.57
and you open up your
lunch and say, this my sandwich!
00:23:16.60\00:23:19.94
You gotta put the two
of them together to have a
00:23:21.69\00:23:23.23
sandwich right. Alright,
when you combine the Spirit
00:23:23.26\00:23:28.25
with the body you get a
soul, when you separate them
00:23:29.06\00:23:32.18
it stops being a soul.
If you want you can eat that
00:23:32.21\00:23:35.26
afterward, now that
everybody has touched it.
00:23:35.29\00:23:36.62
I won't do that to
you. Thank you, very much,
00:23:38.44\00:23:39.75
let's give them a hand.
There is a point to that,
00:23:39.78\00:23:49.22
I'll explain it later.
See the devil wants to scare
00:23:49.25\00:23:53.35
kids about death and
you don't have to be scared,
00:23:53.38\00:23:56.54
when you understand
what the Bible teaches.
00:23:56.60\00:23:58.18
Alright, question number
four, do you say people go to
00:23:58.44\00:24:01.48
heaven right when they die? No.
00:24:01.51\00:24:04.29
You know, a lot of
people believe, if you're good
00:24:04.32\00:24:07.13
and you die, you'll
immediately go to heaven
00:24:07.58\00:24:09.87
and if you're bad and
you die, where do you go?
00:24:10.63\00:24:13.16
Hell, lake of fire,
you'll burn. That's terrible
00:24:14.23\00:24:17.53
to think about, but
you know, the Bible doesn't
00:24:17.56\00:24:19.21
actually teach that.
Let me prove it to you.
00:24:19.24\00:24:21.62
In Acts chapter 2, in
the New Testament after
00:24:22.08\00:24:25.23
Jesus died and
ascended to him, he is preaching
00:24:25.26\00:24:28.24
about the Apostle,
the Apostle Peter is
00:24:28.27\00:24:31.26
preaching about King
David. Now, good King David
00:24:31.29\00:24:34.83
who killed Goliath, you
remember him, is he going
00:24:34.86\00:24:38.06
to be in heaven, sure
he will. The Bible says,
00:24:38.09\00:24:40.94
he was a man after
God's own heart. It says
00:24:40.97\00:24:43.57
men and brethren,
Peter speaking. Let me freely
00:24:43.60\00:24:47.34
speak on to you about the
patriarch David that he is
00:24:47.37\00:24:50.90
both dead and buried,
and his grave, his tomb is
00:24:50.93\00:24:55.57
with us to this day.
And, you read on, and
00:24:55.60\00:24:58.57
David say, Peter says in
that sermon. For David did
00:24:58.60\00:25:02.40
not ascend into the
heavens. Now notice this, Peter
00:25:02.43\00:25:06.31
says David is dead,
buried and he is not ascended
00:25:06.34\00:25:09.23
to heaven. Well, where
is he then? Says he is in
00:25:09.26\00:25:12.80
his tomb, but doesn't
the Bible say to be absent
00:25:12.83\00:25:17.00
from the bodies to be
present with the Lord, yes.
00:25:17.03\00:25:19.28
That's because as soon
as a person dies they don't
00:25:20.98\00:25:24.67
know anything
until the resurrection.
00:25:24.70\00:25:26.40
The next thing they are
conscious of is waking up
00:25:26.90\00:25:30.74
for the resurrection
and the judgment all takes
00:25:30.77\00:25:32.96
place in the future,
people don't know go right to
00:25:32.99\00:25:35.43
heaven and hell
before the judgment day
00:25:35.46\00:25:37.11
or before the resurrection.
Question number five,
00:25:37.14\00:25:39.98
what do dead people
know after they die?
00:25:41.27\00:25:44.46
Let's find out what the
Bible says. In Ecclesiastes,
00:25:45.37\00:25:49.59
written by Solomon,
that's King David's son.
00:25:49.62\00:25:51.77
He says, for the living
know that they will die,
00:25:52.41\00:25:54.88
you can read those
last words with me, but the
00:25:55.27\00:25:57.88
dead know nothing.
Let's say that one more time,
00:25:57.91\00:26:02.11
but the dead know
nothing. How much do they know?
00:26:02.28\00:26:07.23
"Nothing." Are
they spying on you?
00:26:07.26\00:26:09.78
"No." Do they come back
00:26:09.81\00:26:11.59
to haunt you? "No."
00:26:11.62\00:26:13.39
Can they reach out of
their grave and grab your ankle
00:26:13.42\00:26:15.58
when you're walking by? "No."
00:26:15.61\00:26:18.14
They don't anything,
do you believe the Bible
00:26:18.74\00:26:21.15
or do you believe
the scary TV programs.
00:26:21.18\00:26:23.69
"The Bible."
Ecclesiastes 9 verse 10 says,
00:26:23.72\00:26:28.60
whatever your hand
finds to do, whatever you do
00:26:29.01\00:26:31.54
with your hand, do it with
all your might, do everything
00:26:31.57\00:26:34.26
with enthusiasm, for
there is no work or device
00:26:34.29\00:26:38.93
or knowledge or wisdom in
the grave where you're going.
00:26:38.96\00:26:43.84
People don't know
anything, they have no wisdom,
00:26:44.08\00:26:45.99
they have got no
device, that means they're not
00:26:46.02\00:26:47.51
doing anything. So, if
you're gonna do something
00:26:47.54\00:26:50.35
with your life, you
better do it while you're alive.
00:26:50.38\00:26:52.51
Cause if you're planning
on getting busy after you die,
00:26:52.95\00:26:55.67
while you're in the
grave you don't do anything.
00:26:56.02\00:26:57.49
Number six, is that
clear to everybody and if so
00:26:59.13\00:27:02.45
many people are afraid
of being haunted or spooked.
00:27:02.48\00:27:05.70
Question number six, can
a dead person's "soul" or
00:27:06.40\00:27:10.31
"Spirit" come back and
talk to the living? What does
00:27:10.34\00:27:14.75
the Bible say? Can
they see what's happening
00:27:14.78\00:27:16.91
on this earth? Are
they watching you, the dead
00:27:16.94\00:27:20.78
people up there? No, the
Bible says, so man lies down,
00:27:20.81\00:27:26.06
and he rises not till
the heavens be no more.
00:27:27.35\00:27:30.81
When a person dies, he
is resting until the heavens
00:27:31.70\00:27:34.42
are no more, that's
taking about when the heavens
00:27:34.45\00:27:36.12
depart as a scroll and
Jesus comes. And, again
00:27:36.15\00:27:40.18
in Job chapter 7 verse
10, He shall never return
00:27:40.21\00:27:44.99
to his house. You know, if
you're going to a house and
00:27:45.02\00:27:48.53
someone died in the
house, Mrs. Bachelor and I we
00:27:48.56\00:27:52.32
bought the house we've
been living in for the last
00:27:52.35\00:27:55.22
15 years and
someone died in that house,
00:27:56.11\00:27:59.16
they died in their bed.
Nice house, do you think
00:27:59.19\00:28:01.68
that scared me, do
you think that spooked me,
00:28:01.71\00:28:04.43
have we ever gotten
haunted, no, no it doesn't
00:28:04.50\00:28:08.81
matter one bit. And if
you knew the truth people die
00:28:08.84\00:28:12.76
all kinds of places
and if you're worried about
00:28:12.79\00:28:14.63
being haunted, don't
think like that, the devil wants
00:28:14.66\00:28:18.13
to scare young people
with these spooky stories.
00:28:18.16\00:28:21.17
The Bible says, we should
have nothing to do with the
00:28:21.88\00:28:24.32
idea of talking to
the dead or communicating
00:28:24.35\00:28:26.98
with the dead. When I was
a young person, didn't grow
00:28:27.01\00:28:30.05
up a Christian. Sometimes
in our family we would have
00:28:30.08\00:28:32.56
Seance, you know what that is?
00:28:32.59\00:28:34.11
Family member would
get around and we'd light
00:28:35.09\00:28:37.24
a candle and we'd
hold hands and we say Oh!
00:28:37.27\00:28:40.08
We are gonna try to
talk to Abraham Lincoln
00:28:40.11\00:28:42.09
or somebody dead. Yeah,
but that's very dangerous,
00:28:42.12\00:28:45.96
because sometimes the devil
will pretend to be somebody
00:28:46.69\00:28:51.06
that is died to deceive
the living. The Bible tells
00:28:51.62\00:28:55.77
us that the devil was
very tricky and that's why
00:28:55.80\00:28:57.94
I want you to know that.
Furthermore in the Bible,
00:28:57.97\00:28:59.96
it says Christians
should have nothing to do with
00:28:59.99\00:29:02.80
witchcraft or sorcery.
Leviticus 20, verse 27,
00:29:02.83\00:29:06.92
it says a man also
or a woman, that has a
00:29:07.53\00:29:10.79
familiar spirit, that
means they are talking to the
00:29:10.82\00:29:12.96
spirits of the dead or
trying to. Or that is a
00:29:12.99\00:29:15.64
wizard like Harry
Potter. Shall surely be put to?
00:29:15.67\00:29:22.15
"Death." Aha! God doesn't want
00:29:22.56\00:29:26.00
Christians to be dabbling
with witchcraft or wizardry
00:29:26.03\00:29:29.63
or spirits or enchantments
or drugs, a lot of things
00:29:29.66\00:29:34.79
that the world and
the occult dabble with.
00:29:34.82\00:29:38.14
The Bible says, that
the dead are dead. A matter
00:29:39.29\00:29:42.20
of fact, number
seven, explains it a little
00:29:42.23\00:29:44.22
better to us. What is
death like? How many of you will
00:29:44.25\00:29:50.35
believe what Jesus
says. When people die
00:29:50.38\00:29:54.76
do they go flying
around haunting folks?
00:29:54.79\00:29:56.83
"No." No, the Bible says that
00:29:56.86\00:30:00.38
they're sleeping. Let's
listen to Jesus. John 11:11,
00:30:00.41\00:30:04.46
this is easy for you
to remember. John 11:11
00:30:04.49\00:30:08.58
you can remember
that. Jesus said after that
00:30:09.48\00:30:13.12
he said to them "Our
friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go
00:30:13.15\00:30:17.87
that I might wake him up.
Now Jesus had a friend named
00:30:17.90\00:30:21.05
Lazarus who was very
sick and his friends said
00:30:21.08\00:30:24.45
you better go check on him,
he said Lazarus is sleeping,
00:30:24.48\00:30:26.80
but I'm going to go wake
him up and they said well
00:30:26.83\00:30:28.20
if he's sleeping and he
is sick he will feel better.
00:30:28.23\00:30:29.87
Jesus said no, it says
in John 11:14, he told them
00:30:30.44\00:30:34.09
plainly, Lazarus is dead.
What word did Jesus use to
00:30:34.12\00:30:39.83
symbolically describe death.
Sleep, he said death is like
00:30:39.86\00:30:44.93
sleep and then of
course later Jesus rose Lazarus
00:30:44.96\00:30:47.77
from the dead. John
11, verse 43, now when he
00:30:47.80\00:30:51.65
had said these things,
He cried with a loud voice,
00:30:51.68\00:30:54.54
"Lazarus, come
forth!" Jesus went to the tomb
00:30:55.25\00:30:57.72
of Lazarus, they
rolled away the stone, he said
00:30:57.75\00:31:00.11
Lazarus come forth and
Lazarus came back to life.
00:31:00.14\00:31:03.36
But he had been dead
for four days and Jesus
00:31:03.39\00:31:06.25
called it asleep. All
through the Bible when people
00:31:06.28\00:31:09.81
died it says they
slept. David died, he slept
00:31:09.84\00:31:14.10
with his fathers. Now,
King David for instance,
00:31:14.13\00:31:18.02
he died about 3000 years
ago but David went to sleep
00:31:18.73\00:31:23.16
does it seem like 3000
years to him. When David was
00:31:23.19\00:31:27.07
old and he got cold, the
Bible says and he couldn't
00:31:27.10\00:31:31.27
stay warm and pretty soon
he died, he closed his eyes,
00:31:31.30\00:31:35.82
he breathed out the last
time and he stopped breathing
00:31:36.07\00:31:38.21
the breath of life left
him, he was a great king,
00:31:38.89\00:31:41.65
they had a wonderful funeral,
they put him in a grave,
00:31:41.68\00:31:44.60
but his body, what's
happened to his body?
00:31:45.73\00:31:47.66
Body just dry out, once
the spirit is gone the house
00:31:48.27\00:31:50.89
is empty there is
nothing happening there.
00:31:50.92\00:31:52.31
And so, he doesn't know
that. 3000 years have gone by,
00:31:53.56\00:31:59.39
if you're King David
and all of a sudden you die
00:31:59.42\00:32:03.01
and you're saved, the
next thing you know is you
00:32:03.45\00:32:05.63
hear a trumpet, and
you wake up and you got a
00:32:05.66\00:32:08.82
new body and David is
going to come out of the grave
00:32:08.85\00:32:11.08
and he is going to see Jesus,
the next thing David knows
00:32:11.11\00:32:14.23
absent from body present
with the Lord, 3000 years
00:32:14.47\00:32:17.15
have gone by, but he
is not going to know it.
00:32:17.18\00:32:18.67
Many of you get
sleepy during my meetings,
00:32:19.05\00:32:20.91
a little bit. I need
a volunteer. Okay. Let's
00:32:20.94\00:32:26.01
see here, young man
right here. Yeah, why don't
00:32:26.04\00:32:28.92
you come up here. You
said, you get sleepy during
00:32:28.95\00:32:31.71
my meeting, a little bit
maybe, see if you can find
00:32:31.74\00:32:33.81
some for tell and time
there in the box, can you
00:32:33.84\00:32:39.15
pull that out. Okay, this
is my personal watch here,
00:32:39.18\00:32:43.46
what's your name? Jason.
00:32:45.52\00:32:46.77
Jason What time does that say?
00:32:46.80\00:32:48.16
7.35. 7.35, okay. Why don't you
00:32:50.25\00:32:54.26
lay down right here just
for a second if you don't mind,
00:32:54.29\00:32:56.25
and you can
just take a nap okay.
00:32:58.07\00:33:00.07
Just relax. Okay, you
can get up now, look how long
00:33:00.10\00:33:08.84
he's been sleeping
what time does that say? Oh!
00:33:08.87\00:33:11.50
I went the wrong
way, wait a second here.
00:33:11.53\00:33:13.31
Okay, what's
that saying? Its 8.00.
00:33:17.39\00:33:21.54
You didn't know you've
been sleeping a whole hour,
00:33:21.79\00:33:23.52
did you? How long did
it feel to you? We've been
00:33:23.55\00:33:26.55
sitting here for an hour
waiting for you to wake up,
00:33:26.58\00:33:28.31
do you feel better
now? Stay awake for the rest
00:33:29.27\00:33:31.44
of the program.
You can go sit down.
00:33:31.47\00:33:35.53
Thank you very much.
Alright, how many of you,
00:33:39.37\00:33:43.79
have you ever had a hard
day, you've been playing,
00:33:45.18\00:33:47.44
especially if you go
swimming hard day at school,
00:33:47.67\00:33:49.95
did a lot of homework.
You go to sleep and all
00:33:49.98\00:33:53.30
of a sudden, the next
thing you know the alarms
00:33:53.33\00:33:54.37
ringing and you're up
and you've been laying
00:33:54.40\00:33:56.77
there 7 hours but how long
does it seem? Seven minutes,
00:33:56.80\00:34:00.46
five minutes, that's what
it will be like, it's like a
00:34:00.49\00:34:03.76
dreamless sleep when a
person dies. So even if
00:34:03.79\00:34:08.08
they died thousands
of years ago, if you're
00:34:08.11\00:34:09.85
saved next thing you know
is resurrection, if you're
00:34:09.88\00:34:12.54
lost the next thing you
know it's the resurrection,
00:34:12.57\00:34:15.09
but it's the wrong
resurrection. You want
00:34:15.12\00:34:17.64
to make sure you're in the
right resurrection. So, how
00:34:17.67\00:34:20.04
many people are in
heaven now? Oh! There is few.
00:34:20.07\00:34:24.72
Well, the Bible tells
us there is some special
00:34:25.63\00:34:27.73
exceptions that God has
made, any of you remember when
00:34:27.76\00:34:30.87
Jesus went up to this,
they call it the glorious mount,
00:34:30.90\00:34:33.43
the mount of transfiguration,
to who people from the
00:34:33.46\00:34:36.56
Old Testament appeared to
Jesus, who knows what their
00:34:36.59\00:34:38.59
names were? What does
it say, Moses and Elijah,
00:34:38.62\00:34:45.54
Moses and Elijah appeared
to Jesus on the mountain.
00:34:45.57\00:34:48.19
How did Moses get to
heaven? Book of Jude says that
00:34:48.52\00:34:51.63
Jesus resurrected him.
How did Elijah get to heaven?
00:34:51.66\00:34:54.76
He didn't die. Elijah
never died. Moses died and God
00:34:55.87\00:34:59.02
resurrected him. Elijah
he when riding off to heaven
00:34:59.05\00:35:01.82
in a chariot with angels
and horses of fire and then
00:35:01.85\00:35:05.80
there is at least one other
person we know of in heaven
00:35:05.83\00:35:07.95
by name I heard someone
say it, Enoch, walk with God
00:35:07.98\00:35:12.56
and he and God walked
together all the time and
00:35:12.59\00:35:14.74
one day God said we're
closer to the my house than
00:35:14.77\00:35:16.64
your house, let's just
go home. And Enoch is in
00:35:16.67\00:35:19.77
heaven and he was the
father of the oldest man
00:35:19.80\00:35:23.47
who ever died.
Enoch's the oldest man who
00:35:23.50\00:35:27.36
ever lived,
because he never did die.
00:35:27.39\00:35:29.65
Methuselah was his son
and then when Jesus died
00:35:30.41\00:35:34.54
on the cross there
was another resurrection.
00:35:34.57\00:35:36.37
The Bible says in
Mathew 27:52, there was an
00:35:37.16\00:35:40.87
earthquake and many of
the graves were opened,
00:35:40.90\00:35:44.75
and many bodies of
the saints who had fallen
00:35:44.78\00:35:47.09
asleep were raised. And after
the resurrection of Christ,
00:35:47.12\00:35:51.70
they later ascended to
heaven with him. So there
00:35:52.01\00:35:53.88
was a special resurrection
of some of them the prophets
00:35:53.91\00:35:57.35
and the faithful, maybe kings
who had been faithful to God,
00:35:57.38\00:36:00.65
they came out of their
graves sorted of as a trophy
00:36:00.96\00:36:03.07
that Jesus took back to
heaven with him. So there
00:36:03.10\00:36:05.52
is a few people in heaven,
but for the vast majority
00:36:05.55\00:36:08.73
when people die, what do
they do? A dreamless sleep
00:36:08.76\00:36:13.30
until the resurrection of
the Lord. So, if most people
00:36:13.33\00:36:18.46
aren't in heaven
now, how many people are
00:36:18.49\00:36:20.77
burning in hell
right now? "None."
00:36:20.80\00:36:23.95
None, because would God
put somebody in hell and
00:36:23.98\00:36:26.66
burn them before
their judgment. Can you
00:36:26.69\00:36:29.13
imagine God, someone
dies and they go to hell and
00:36:29.16\00:36:31.57
they're suffering down
there and then he pulls
00:36:31.60\00:36:33.83
him out and says okay
now it's time to judge you,
00:36:33.86\00:36:35.35
yup you're guilty, put
him back in hell. That God
00:36:35.38\00:36:37.91
doesn't operate like that.
See the judgment, the Bible
00:36:37.94\00:36:41.20
says is still in the future,
you can read here the book of
00:36:41.23\00:36:44.51
Job chapter 21, verse
30, talking about the wicked.
00:36:44.54\00:36:47.56
For the wicked are reserved
for the day of doom, they
00:36:48.10\00:36:52.38
shall be brought
out at the day of wrath.
00:36:52.41\00:36:54.76
The day of the
Lord, the day of judgment,
00:36:54.79\00:36:56.41
the day of the
doom, that would be the
00:36:56.44\00:36:57.73
resurrection of the wicked
then they're brought forth
00:36:57.76\00:37:00.79
from the graves, they
are judged and everyone's
00:37:00.82\00:37:03.42
punished according
to what he deserves.
00:37:03.45\00:37:05.67
You know some people
think that the wicked burn
00:37:06.38\00:37:08.85
forever and ever and ever
in hell. Do you know Bible
00:37:08.88\00:37:11.63
doesn't teach that.
Have any of you got a dog?
00:37:11.66\00:37:15.58
Has that dog ever
misbehaved? "Yes."
00:37:16.91\00:37:20.15
Did you ever have
to punish your dog?
00:37:20.55\00:37:21.95
"Yes." Would you ever burn your
00:37:21.98\00:37:24.45
dog forever and ever? "No."
00:37:24.48\00:37:27.18
You wouldn't do that
to your dog, are you more
00:37:27.81\00:37:30.52
loving than God? "No."
00:37:30.55\00:37:32.92
This idea that God
tortures the lost forever
00:37:33.12\00:37:36.06
and ever, that doesn't
comes from the Bible. The Bible
00:37:36.09\00:37:39.73
says they are two choices,
believe in God, everlasting
00:37:39.76\00:37:44.03
life and do not believe
you perish, you've got life
00:37:44.06\00:37:48.29
or death. Jesus is
offering you everlasting life.
00:37:48.32\00:37:50.79
The Bible says what's going
to happen to the lost is the
00:37:51.61\00:37:54.15
same thing that
happened to people in Sodom
00:37:54.18\00:37:56.05
and Gomorrah. Do you
know the story of about
00:37:56.08\00:37:57.75
Sodom and Gomorrah?
They are real wicked there
00:37:57.78\00:37:59.76
and the Bible says the
Lord rained down out of
00:38:00.23\00:38:02.79
heaven fire and
brimstone on the people in
00:38:02.82\00:38:05.70
Sodom and Gomorrah,
for their sins and they
00:38:05.73\00:38:09.09
were burned with
eternal fire, everlasting fire.
00:38:09.12\00:38:12.27
Are Sodom and
Gomorrah still burning today?
00:38:13.55\00:38:15.38
"No." Were those cities
00:38:15.91\00:38:17.30
ever rebuilt? "No."
00:38:17.33\00:38:18.77
No, they were burned
up. Matter of fact, I got
00:38:19.11\00:38:22.05
something pretty
interesting to show you here.
00:38:22.08\00:38:24.01
Cameraman, I want to
get a close up of this,
00:38:28.82\00:38:30.26
because I know you can
barely see it, does anyone
00:38:30.29\00:38:32.80
know what that is? "A rock."
00:38:32.83\00:38:34.46
It's not a rock. "Salt."
00:38:34.72\00:38:36.98
Let me tell what it
is. You can only find this
00:38:37.09\00:38:39.35
listen, listen. You can
only find this one place
00:38:39.38\00:38:42.29
in the world, if you
go down to the lowest part
00:38:42.32\00:38:45.45
in the world, which is
by the dead sea and there by
00:38:45.48\00:38:48.95
the south part of the
dead sea there is an area where
00:38:48.98\00:38:51.57
they believe Sodom
and Gomorrah used to be,
00:38:51.60\00:38:53.31
these wicked cities and
the Bible says God rained
00:38:53.34\00:38:56.43
down out of heaven fire
and sulfur and brimstone
00:38:56.46\00:38:59.64
upon them. And there is a
place where you kick around
00:38:59.67\00:39:02.37
in the ground and there
is all this packed down ash
00:39:02.40\00:39:05.58
on the ground, the
very place where they were
00:39:05.61\00:39:07.52
burned up, it is still
there today and you can find
00:39:07.55\00:39:10.78
this sulfur balls in the
ground that are left over,
00:39:10.81\00:39:14.64
for when God
destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah
00:39:14.83\00:39:16.82
someone who is down
there brought this to me.
00:39:16.85\00:39:18.51
I've saved it for years
and they've told me you just
00:39:18.76\00:39:21.79
put a match to it and it
will still burn now, after
00:39:21.82\00:39:24.58
all these years, do you
think we have to try that?
00:39:24.61\00:39:26.44
"Yeah." I need someone, I need
00:39:26.47\00:39:29.68
someone big and
strong to help with this,
00:39:29.71\00:39:32.19
where did no, no, I see
here. Alright, peace be still.
00:39:32.84\00:39:38.38
Okay hang on a second
here. Alright, you can come
00:39:39.58\00:39:42.32
over here, I just, you
got to hold this, I don't want
00:39:42.35\00:39:45.16
anyone get burned. Hold
that right there by the knob,
00:39:45.19\00:39:49.28
I think you'll be alright
and let me just you know,
00:39:49.31\00:39:52.97
we've had problems along
the way, we've had problems
00:39:53.00\00:40:01.35
along the way with this
thing, let's see if what can
00:40:01.38\00:40:04.00
get it to work. Hey, look
at that, let's see if this
00:40:04.03\00:40:06.66
thing is still, now they
told me it makes a terrible
00:40:06.69\00:40:10.81
stink, what's your name? Josh.
00:40:10.84\00:40:13.83
Is that burning Josh? Uh hm.
00:40:13.86\00:40:16.19
Can you sit, maybe
camera needs a close up of that,
00:40:16.66\00:40:18.96
kids that is already on
fire. It's blue fire, woo!
00:40:18.99\00:40:22.51
It burns, woo! Oops,
sorry, it stinks. Oh,
00:40:22.54\00:40:25.75
it smells like rotten
eggs. This is left over, you are
00:40:25.78\00:40:31.62
looking at actually
left overs of Sodom and
00:40:31.65\00:40:34.44
Gomorrah, when those
cities were destroyed. But that
00:40:34.47\00:40:38.15
thing that burned didn't
it, but is it still burning.
00:40:38.18\00:40:40.12
"No." Sodom and Gomorrah are not
00:40:40.50\00:40:41.93
burning right now
either are they? Thank you
00:40:41.96\00:40:43.47
very much Josh. Woo! It
smells, it smells a little bit
00:40:43.50\00:40:51.19
up here right now. So,
the Bible tells us that we
00:40:51.22\00:40:56.12
have one life, you know
some people believe that
00:40:56.15\00:41:00.07
when you die that you
are resurrected again as
00:41:00.10\00:41:03.62
somebody else and if
you're good you come back and
00:41:03.65\00:41:07.73
you have a better life and
if you're bad you come back
00:41:07.76\00:41:09.95
you might be an animal.
They call it reincarnation.
00:41:09.98\00:41:13.35
Have you heard this
before and I am not trying to be
00:41:13.38\00:41:16.00
unkind to other people's
beliefs, I am just telling
00:41:16.03\00:41:18.16
the Bible says that, that
just isn't true. You've got
00:41:18.19\00:41:21.83
one life and when you
die the only resurrection is
00:41:21.86\00:41:25.54
going to be when you
come back and you're saved
00:41:25.57\00:41:29.62
and you get your
glorified body or you're judged
00:41:29.65\00:41:31.81
and you're lost. The
idea that you just keep on
00:41:31.84\00:41:34.66
coming back is not what
the Bible teaches. It says
00:41:34.69\00:41:38.01
here in Revelation
chapter 20, that when Jesus
00:41:38.04\00:41:41.85
comes again, the
wicked are destroyed by the
00:41:41.88\00:41:44.85
brightness of his coming.
But the rest of the dead,
00:41:44.88\00:41:47.78
this is verse 5, the
wicked they live not again
00:41:47.81\00:41:51.58
until the thousand years
are finished. See the wicked
00:41:51.61\00:41:56.44
they're destroyed by the
brightness of his coming.
00:41:57.37\00:41:58.88
The wicked who are dead
they stay dead. But then
00:41:58.91\00:42:01.84
at the end of the one
thousand years Revelation 21
00:42:01.87\00:42:04.72
tells us, I, John, saw the
Holy City, the New Jerusalem
00:42:04.75\00:42:10.05
coming down from God
out of heaven and when the
00:42:10.08\00:42:13.39
New Jerusalem comes
down to the earth, all the
00:42:13.42\00:42:15.43
righteous who are in
the city, we've been living
00:42:15.46\00:42:17.36
and reigning with
Christ the righteous for a
00:42:17.39\00:42:19.09
thousand years, then he
will bring forth the wicked,
00:42:19.12\00:42:21.97
they're raised for
judgment and it says I saw
00:42:22.00\00:42:25.05
Revelation 20 verse 11,
I saw a great white throne
00:42:25.08\00:42:29.15
and Him who sat on it,
from whose face the earth
00:42:29.60\00:42:32.05
and the heaven fled
away. And I saw the dead,
00:42:32.08\00:42:35.83
small and great,
standing before God
00:42:36.46\00:42:39.45
and books were
opened. What books do you
00:42:39.48\00:42:42.48
think those are? "The Bible."
00:42:42.51\00:42:44.51
The books of records
of everything everybody
00:42:44.84\00:42:46.73
has done. Now God, we
know his books may not be
00:42:46.76\00:42:49.81
kind of the old fashioned
books that we're used to
00:42:50.44\00:42:52.55
today, I mean today
we've got DVD and we get
00:42:52.58\00:42:55.14
video and all kinds of
ways to record information.
00:42:55.17\00:42:57.31
God is using words that
we understand, somehow God
00:42:57.75\00:43:01.59
has recorded everything
that everybody has done
00:43:01.62\00:43:04.55
not only that, does the
Lord know what you think?
00:43:04.58\00:43:07.00
"Yes." Does the Devil know
00:43:07.71\00:43:09.66
what you think? "No."
00:43:09.69\00:43:10.99
No, God knows your
heart, the devil can guess
00:43:11.02\00:43:14.05
what you're thinking
sometimes by the expression
00:43:14.08\00:43:16.11
on your face, but you
know what your mom and dad
00:43:16.14\00:43:18.68
can also sometimes guess
what you're thinking by the
00:43:18.71\00:43:21.23
expressions on your
face, right. But only
00:43:21.26\00:43:23.99
God knows that. Bible
says, God and God only
00:43:24.02\00:43:27.34
knows the thoughts of
men's hearts and everybody
00:43:27.37\00:43:29.53
is going to be judged.
And the Bible says another
00:43:29.56\00:43:32.65
book was opened,
which is the Book of Life.
00:43:32.68\00:43:36.48
And the dead were judged
according to their works.
00:43:37.14\00:43:39.43
That's why we need the
Lord to change our hearts,
00:43:40.27\00:43:42.28
and anyone who is not
found written in the Book of
00:43:42.69\00:43:45.38
Life was cast into
the lake of fire. And some
00:43:45.41\00:43:50.25
people will die instantly,
others will be punished
00:43:50.28\00:43:53.66
according to what
they deserve, may suffer
00:43:53.69\00:43:55.23
a little longer,
there is punishment for sin.
00:43:55.26\00:43:57.71
See Jesus not only died
for your sins he suffered
00:43:58.01\00:44:01.79
and died, isn't that
right? He didn't just say okay
00:44:02.15\00:44:05.10
I am going to die now,
flip a switch and die. The Devil
00:44:05.13\00:44:08.12
tortured him, there is a
penalty for sin and Jesus
00:44:08.59\00:44:11.58
took all of your
suffering, he doesn't want
00:44:11.61\00:44:13.88
you to suffer. That's why
it's important that we trust
00:44:13.91\00:44:17.11
him and believe in him.
The Bible says in Psalms
00:44:17.14\00:44:19.78
37 verse 20, the
wicked shall perish; do they
00:44:19.81\00:44:24.09
burn forever and ever? "No."
00:44:24.12\00:44:25.69
No, they perish into
smoke, they will vanish away.
00:44:25.72\00:44:28.72
You saw we're just
burning something with smoke,
00:44:28.75\00:44:30.43
it will vanish away.
The day comes, Malachi
00:44:30.95\00:44:33.83
chapter 4 verse 1
and verse 3. The day is
00:44:33.86\00:44:37.32
coming that will burn
like an oven, and all the proud
00:44:37.35\00:44:41.02
and all that do wickedly
will be stubble, and the day
00:44:41.05\00:44:44.33
that comes will burn them
up. That's a picture there
00:44:44.36\00:44:47.81
of the ancient city of
Pompeii, I've been there
00:44:48.21\00:44:50.62
before, and a bunch of people
were destroyed very quickly
00:44:50.65\00:44:53.27
by a volcano and
their ashes are still there.
00:44:53.30\00:44:56.77
And you will tread down
the wicked, for they will be
00:44:57.43\00:45:00.17
ashes under the soles of
your feet. God's going to
00:45:00.97\00:45:03.71
create a new heavens
and a new earth, but what
00:45:03.74\00:45:05.87
happens to the wicked,
it's called the second,
00:45:05.90\00:45:08.00
what's that word up
there on the screen?
00:45:08.60\00:45:09.90
"Second death."
Now, a lot of people get
00:45:09.93\00:45:12.49
old and die the first death.
You don't have to be afraid
00:45:12.52\00:45:14.32
of that, but if you've
got Jesus, you don't have to
00:45:14.35\00:45:17.39
worry about the second
death do you? That's what
00:45:17.42\00:45:19.69
the lost die. If you're
only born once you die twice,
00:45:19.72\00:45:24.05
but if you're born
twice. How many of you were
00:45:25.13\00:45:26.68
born once, let me just
check I've asked this before?
00:45:26.71\00:45:28.84
You have all been
born once that's why
00:45:29.24\00:45:30.34
you're here right. But
how many of you've also been
00:45:30.37\00:45:33.49
born twice, you've been
born again because you've
00:45:33.52\00:45:35.07
accepted to Jesus, if
you're born twice, you may only
00:45:35.10\00:45:39.20
have to worry about one
death, but you don't have to
00:45:39.23\00:45:41.00
worry about the second
death, right. Number 8.
00:45:41.03\00:45:44.45
What was Satan's first
lie on earth and how do we
00:45:45.07\00:45:49.16
know it was a lie
Remember the devil wants
00:45:49.19\00:45:52.51
you to think that the
wicked burn forever and ever
00:45:52.54\00:45:55.00
in hell, that we're
immortal souls, that's not true.
00:45:55.03\00:45:58.88
The only way to have
life is through Jesus.
00:45:59.16\00:46:00.89
Remember the devil said
to Eve, the serpent said
00:46:01.30\00:46:04.09
to the woman, you
will not surely die,
00:46:04.12\00:46:07.33
you won't really
die, you will either live
00:46:07.36\00:46:08.80
forever in heaven or
live forever in hell. That's a
00:46:08.83\00:46:11.40
doctrine that came
from the devil, sad thing is
00:46:11.43\00:46:14.02
there is some dear
people out there that
00:46:14.05\00:46:16.21
still believe that. The Bible
says in Ezekiel 18 verse 4.
00:46:16.24\00:46:20.07
The soul that sins
shall, they'll die. Souls?
00:46:20.73\00:46:26.38
I thought souls live
forever and ever. Bible says the
00:46:26.41\00:46:28.98
soul that sins dies.
The King of Kings, and
00:46:29.01\00:46:32.57
Lord of Lords Jesus is the
only one who has immortality,
00:46:32.60\00:46:36.77
but you get the gift of
immortality when Jesus comes.
00:46:38.21\00:46:41.71
The Bible says in First
Corinthians 15, then this
00:46:41.97\00:46:45.09
mortal, a mortal
means someone who gets old
00:46:45.12\00:46:47.32
and dies, will put on
immortality. Now number 9.
00:46:47.35\00:46:51.27
This is very
important. Can the devil perform
00:46:51.30\00:46:54.63
miracles? "Yes."
00:46:54.66\00:46:56.60
Yes, he can. How many of
you remember. Well, first
00:46:57.24\00:47:00.68
of all, let me read you
a scripture, Revelation 16
00:47:00.71\00:47:04.01
verse 14. It says
they are spirits of devils
00:47:04.04\00:47:08.19
working miracles. Can
the devil create illusions?
00:47:08.22\00:47:11.20
"Yes." How many remember when
00:47:11.23\00:47:13.30
Moses went before
the Pharaoh and he threw
00:47:13.33\00:47:15.76
down his rod and it
turned into a serpent, but the
00:47:15.79\00:47:20.43
magicians of the
Pharaoh threw down their rods,
00:47:20.46\00:47:23.01
what did they do? They became
snakes also, the devil can
00:47:23.04\00:47:26.80
impersonate the miracles
of God, so that's why you
00:47:26.83\00:47:29.86
got to understand that
the dead are dead. So, if
00:47:29.89\00:47:32.39
someone comes back and
says I have come from the past,
00:47:32.42\00:47:34.47
I am the Apostle Peter,
I've come to give you some
00:47:34.50\00:47:36.35
information and it
doesn't go along with the Bible,
00:47:36.38\00:47:38.88
but I've got fresh information.
00:47:38.91\00:47:40.23
Is that from God
or from the devil?
00:47:41.03\00:47:42.58
"The devil." So
you got to know that.
00:47:42.61\00:47:44.90
Now, for Pastor
Ross, you got that here.
00:47:44.93\00:47:46.74
Few kids have been
watching every night as we
00:47:47.37\00:47:49.11
started our amazing
adventure we wanted that
00:47:49.14\00:47:50.86
sense of drama, we'd
have a fog machine, do you
00:47:50.89\00:47:53.53
have any water? I do.
00:47:53.56\00:47:54.54
Oh you got there. You,
okay. You've been wondering
00:47:55.34\00:47:59.14
how that work huh! Let
me see here, bring this,
00:47:59.17\00:48:03.72
drop that and put the
water in the, put the water,
00:48:04.44\00:48:07.79
pour the water in
there. That's what happens to
00:48:07.82\00:48:13.29
dry ice, even that's as
good, you can put it in here.
00:48:13.32\00:48:15.60
Look at there. Well, that
would really scare somebody
00:48:15.63\00:48:17.75
huh! It's a trick 'cause he
is going to knock that over,
00:48:17.78\00:48:21.32
whoa! It's all over, you
better get that out of there.
00:48:21.35\00:48:26.07
It's just a motion detector
and batteries and a little
00:48:27.82\00:48:30.22
trick and plastic made in
China and people get scared.
00:48:30.25\00:48:33.68
Now if we can
create illusions like that,
00:48:33.71\00:48:35.75
what can the devil do?
He can create illusions and
00:48:36.18\00:48:39.29
scare people and
so many, that's good,
00:48:39.32\00:48:41.78
just don't drink that.
That's why a lot of people
00:48:41.81\00:48:46.18
have been fooled by
the devil's tricks in to
00:48:46.21\00:48:49.72
thinking that he's got
some kind of special power
00:48:49.75\00:48:52.65
or they're fooled
into believing that
00:48:52.68\00:48:53.79
they're spirits. Sometimes
that the devil's fallen
00:48:53.82\00:48:56.98
angels will pretend to
be the dead and they'll
00:48:57.01\00:49:02.91
deceive people. You
know, one time there was a king
00:49:02.94\00:49:04.68
in the Bible, his name
was Saul, he turned away
00:49:04.71\00:49:08.25
from God and then he
got scared and he had to go
00:49:08.28\00:49:11.22
into a dangerous
battle, he went and got a witch
00:49:11.25\00:49:14.07
and he asked the witch
to bring someone back from
00:49:14.80\00:49:16.86
the dead to tell him
what to do and this demon
00:49:16.89\00:49:20.13
impersonated the
Prophet Samuel and totally
00:49:20.31\00:49:23.44
discouraged king Saul,
Saul's army lost and Saul
00:49:23.47\00:49:28.37
finally killed himself.
Obviously it's not a good
00:49:28.40\00:49:31.81
thing to believe in
witches and listen to
00:49:31.84\00:49:34.80
spirits of the
dead. And so, don't be
00:49:35.13\00:49:38.20
fooled by that, especially
now here we are in the
00:49:38.23\00:49:42.10
boards of the Halloween
time of year, people get all
00:49:42.13\00:49:45.23
wrapped up in the occult
and those kind of things.
00:49:45.26\00:49:47.41
The Bible says in
Revelation 21, speaking of
00:49:47.78\00:49:50.03
sorcery, those who consult
the dead they will have their
00:49:50.06\00:49:53.72
part in the lake that's
burns with fire and brimstone.
00:49:53.75\00:49:57.72
We can still smell a
little bit of sulfur brimstone
00:49:57.75\00:50:00.92
right now can't we? That
fire and brimstone which is the
00:50:00.95\00:50:05.23
second death, so I
want to encourage you that
00:50:05.26\00:50:08.77
there are two
choices, we got life and death.
00:50:09.34\00:50:12.00
You want to keep your
eyes on Jesus, right friends.
00:50:12.03\00:50:14.08
Question number
10, when will the dead
00:50:14.63\00:50:17.07
live again? First
Thessalonians 4, this was
00:50:17.10\00:50:19.80
our memory verse that we
started with, for the Lord
00:50:19.83\00:50:23.55
himself will descend
from with a shout, with the
00:50:23.58\00:50:26.86
voice of the archangel,
and the trumpet of God
00:50:26.89\00:50:30.17
and the dead in Christ
will rise. What does it mean
00:50:30.51\00:50:35.63
to be in Christ? If you
give your life to God, Jesus
00:50:35.66\00:50:40.31
embraces you, you are in Christ.
00:50:40.34\00:50:43.44
You trust your life to
him, you walk with him,
00:50:43.47\00:50:45.86
you talk to him.
Remember, you have those
00:50:46.02\00:50:48.27
spiritual ears, you can
listen to the voice of the
00:50:48.30\00:50:50.53
Holy Spirit and you belong
to Jesus, you're then in Christ.
00:50:50.56\00:50:54.65
If you should die, do
you need to be afraid?
00:50:54.68\00:50:56.66
If you're a Christian
and you die, why would you be
00:50:57.34\00:50:59.55
afraid of death?
Matter of fact, if you
00:50:59.58\00:51:01.78
are a Christian and you
die, the next thing you know,
00:51:01.81\00:51:04.68
you wake up with a glorified
body that will never feel
00:51:05.46\00:51:08.31
pain, that will never
get sick, that will never
00:51:08.34\00:51:10.48
die again, and you live
forever and ever in Paradise
00:51:10.51\00:51:13.35
and you get to take that journey
00:51:13.38\00:51:14.50
through the stars.
So, for a Christian, why
00:51:14.53\00:51:17.63
would you be afraid of
death? You read in the Bible
00:51:17.66\00:51:20.60
of some of God's patriarchs,
Stephen, whey they told him
00:51:20.63\00:51:24.33
he was going to die,
he was praying for others
00:51:24.36\00:51:27.11
he wasn't afraid.
Peter, they were going to
00:51:27.14\00:51:28.69
execute him the next day,
he went to sleep and slept
00:51:28.72\00:51:31.36
like a baby, he
wasn't at all scared that's
00:51:31.39\00:51:33.31
Acts chapter 12.
When God's prophets and
00:51:33.34\00:51:36.14
believers have faced
death, they've been totally
00:51:36.60\00:51:39.06
unafraid because for
them it's like SLEEP, what?
00:51:39.09\00:51:43.64
"Sleep." Are you
guys afraid to go
00:51:43.67\00:51:45.67
to sleep at night? "No."
00:51:45.70\00:51:47.23
You shouldn't be, some of
you don't want to go sleep
00:51:47.26\00:51:49.92
because you're afraid
you're going to miss something.
00:51:49.95\00:51:51.42
But if you trust the
Lord, you don't have to afraid,
00:51:52.12\00:51:53.95
when Jesus comes it
says First Corinthians 15,
00:51:54.80\00:51:57.30
we will all be changed in
a moment, in the twinkling
00:51:57.55\00:52:00.42
of an eye, at the last
trumpet. For the trumpet
00:52:00.45\00:52:03.72
will sound and the
dead will be raised,
00:52:03.75\00:52:05.58
incorruptible. That means
with bodies that will never
00:52:05.61\00:52:08.35
grow old, never get
sick again. The trumpet
00:52:08.38\00:52:11.39
will sound and we will
be changed. For then this
00:52:11.42\00:52:14.76
mortal would put on
immortality. So, what's
00:52:14.79\00:52:17.76
the key, boys and girls,
friends who are watching,
00:52:17.79\00:52:19.83
what is the key to
unlock death? The secret
00:52:19.86\00:52:24.85
is he who has the
son, who is the son?
00:52:24.88\00:52:27.60
"Jesus." Jesus he
has life and whoever
00:52:27.63\00:52:31.78
does not have the son,
does not have life. You need
00:52:31.81\00:52:34.56
to have Jesus,
the son of God. Do you
00:52:34.59\00:52:37.70
have Jesus, have you decided
to follow him, have you asked
00:52:37.73\00:52:41.09
for a new heart? If you've
not done it before, you can
00:52:41.12\00:52:43.87
do it again tonight.
You don't have to be afraid
00:52:43.90\00:52:46.32
of death, you don't have
to be afraid of the future,
00:52:46.35\00:52:48.58
because if you got Jesus,
you got life. Let's all make
00:52:48.95\00:52:52.54
sure again tonight that
we have Christ. Shall we pray
00:52:52.57\00:52:55.22
together and invite him
to take our lives so we can
00:52:55.25\00:52:58.24
be in Christ. Father in
heaven, we are so thankful
00:52:58.27\00:53:02.64
for your goodness, for
the promises in your word
00:53:03.41\00:53:05.53
that help us to know the
truth and to know that we
00:53:06.23\00:53:08.66
don't need to be afraid
Lord. I pray that each of these
00:53:08.69\00:53:12.41
young people who are here
and those who are watching
00:53:12.44\00:53:14.33
will know that you're
with them where ever they go,
00:53:14.36\00:53:16.78
they don't need to be
scared of ghosts or death,
00:53:16.81\00:53:19.56
because when they have
you in their lives, they
00:53:20.24\00:53:22.35
have the gift of everlasting
life and they can be joyful.
00:53:22.38\00:53:25.99
Help us Lord to keep our
eyes on you, help us to keep
00:53:26.70\00:53:29.60
our ears open to the
voice of the spirit and
00:53:29.63\00:53:32.72
to surrender our
lives completely to
00:53:32.75\00:53:34.36
yours, to you as your
property. Bless the remainder
00:53:34.39\00:53:37.75
of these meetings
and pour out your Spirit.
00:53:37.78\00:53:39.54
We thank you and
pray in Jesus name! Amen.
00:53:39.57\00:53:43.64
Well, God bless you
friends and friends,
00:53:44.78\00:53:46.68
I want to tell you,

program coming, we're going
00:53:49.30\00:53:52.82

to gathered together
at your groups, we'll be
00:53:55.09\00:53:57.52
studying the lesson, a
journey through the sea.
00:53:57.55\00:54:00.05
So, please don't forget
about that, join us then
00:54:00.08\00:54:02.86

these meetings. God bless you.
00:54:02.89\00:54:05.53
