>>THIS PRESENTATION IS
BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE FRIENDS OF
00:00:02.40\00:00:05.33
THE AMAZING FACTS MINISTRY.
00:00:05.37\00:00:06.87
¤¤
00:00:07.04\00:00:14.54
>>SEE, THERE'S TWO
TEMPLES: THERE'S ONE IN HEAVEN
00:00:14.58\00:00:19.35
AND ONE ON EARTH.
THE CHURCH IS CALLED
00:00:19.38\00:00:22.02
THE BODY OF CHRIST.
00:00:22.05\00:00:24.69
THERE IS STILL
A TEMPLE ON EARTH.
00:00:24.72\00:00:26.89
YOU AND I ARE THE PRIESTS.
00:00:26.92\00:00:28.59
YOU AND I ARE THE LIVING STONES
IN THAT TEMPLE AND THAT'S WHY
00:00:28.62\00:00:31.73
THIS IS SUCH AN
IMPORTANT SUBJECT.
00:00:31.76\00:00:33.26
>>WELCOME ONCE AGAIN, FRIENDS,
TO ANOTHER PRESENTATION IN THE
00:00:37.57\00:00:41.80
LANDMARK OF PROPHECY SERIES.
WE'RE VERY THANKFUL THAT EACH OF
00:00:41.84\00:00:45.34
YOU ARE HERE. I WANT
TO THANK YOU PERSONALLY
00:00:45.37\00:00:47.08
FOR YOUR FAITHFULNESS.
YOU KNOW, WE'VE TITLED THIS
00:00:47.11\00:00:50.05
SERIES LANDMARKS OF PROPHECY
AND ONE OF THE FAMOUS LANDMARKS
00:00:50.08\00:00:53.15
IN THE WORLD, OF
COURSE, IS THE TAJ MAHAL.
00:00:53.18\00:00:56.25
THE EMPEROR'S WIFE DIED GIVING
BIRTH TO THEIR 14TH CHILD AND HE
00:00:56.28\00:01:03.12
LOVED HER SO MUCH THAT HE WANTED
TO BUILD SOMETHING THAT WOULD
00:01:03.16\00:01:07.50
JUST COMMEMORATE HIS LOVE FOR
HER AND SO HE HAD JUST THE BEST
00:01:07.50\00:01:13.03
ARCHITECTS IN THE KINGDOM THAT
BUILT THIS BEAUTIFUL BUILDING.
00:01:13.07\00:01:16.37
WHAT MANY PEOPLE ARE NOT
AWARE OF IS THAT HE ALSO SAW IT
00:01:16.40\00:01:22.44
AS A PLACE WHERE
PEOPLE COULD FIND REDEMPTION.
00:01:22.48\00:01:25.35
WHEN THE EMPEROR DEDICATED THE
BUILDING, IT WAS EMPEROR SHAH
00:01:25.38\00:01:30.52
JAHAN, HE DECLARED IN THESE
WORDS, "SHOULD THE GUILTY SEEK
00:01:30.55\00:01:34.69
ASYLUM HERE, LIKE ONE PARDONED,
HE BECOMES FREE FROM SIN.
00:01:34.72\00:01:39.46
SHOULD A SINNER MAKE
HIS WAY TO THIS MANSION,
00:01:39.49\00:01:41.93
ALL HIS PAST SINS
ARE TO BE WASHED AWAY.
00:01:41.96\00:01:44.87
THE SIGHT OF THIS MANSION
CREATES SORROWING SIGHS AND THE
00:01:44.90\00:01:47.67
SUN AND THE MOON SHED
TEARS FROM THEIR EYES.
00:01:47.70\00:01:51.04
IN THIS WORLD, THIS EDIFICE HAS
BEEN MADE; TO DISPLAY THEREBY
00:01:51.07\00:01:54.28
THE CREATOR'S
GLORY." VERY INTERESTING.
00:01:54.31\00:01:57.61
HE SPEAKS OF A MONOTHEISTIC
CREATOR AND THAT THIS BUILDING
00:01:57.65\00:02:01.92
WAS TO BE A PLACE WHERE A PERSON
COULD FIND ASYLUM - LIKE A CITY
00:02:01.95\00:02:04.59
OF REFUGE. AND SO,
IT'S NOT JUST BEAUTIFUL,
00:02:04.62\00:02:07.26
IT ALSO HAD SOME REPRESENTATION
OF A PLACE OF WORSHIP AS WELL.
00:02:07.29\00:02:13.43
YOU KNOW, THERE IS A BUILDING
THAT THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT -
00:02:13.46\00:02:17.83
IT'S CALLED SOMETIMES THE
TABERNACLE, THE TEMPLE, THE
00:02:17.87\00:02:22.17
SANCTUARY - THAT IS FOUND
ALL THE WAY FROM EXODUS THROUGH
00:02:22.20\00:02:25.84
REVELATION AND IS MENTIONED
BY MOST OF THE MAJOR BIBLE
00:02:25.87\00:02:29.68
PROPHETS. IN THE
CONTEXT OF THIS BUILDING
00:02:29.71\00:02:34.08
WE'RE GOING TO LEARN A LOT ABOUT
SALVATION TONIGHT, AND SOME OF
00:02:34.12\00:02:36.22
THE MOST INTERESTING BIBLE
PROPHECIES THAT EVEN RELATE
00:02:36.25\00:02:39.59
TO OUR DAY. THE
LESSON TODAY IS LESSON #11
00:02:39.62\00:02:42.66
DEALING WITH THE SUBJECT
OF CLEANSING THE SANCTUARY.
00:02:42.69\00:02:45.76
NOW, WHEN THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL
CAME OUT OF EGYPT AND MOSES WENT
00:02:45.79\00:02:50.03
UP MOUNT SINAI, WHAT DID HE GET
UP THERE ON TOP OF MOUNT SINAI?
00:02:50.07\00:02:53.77
>>TEN COMMANDMENTS.
>>TEN COMMANDMENTS.
00:02:53.80\00:02:55.60
BUT, YOU KNOW, THAT'S NOT
THE ONLY THING HE GOT UP THERE.
00:02:55.64\00:02:57.37
THE BIBLE TELLS US THE
LORD GAVE HIM BLUEPRINTS.
00:02:57.41\00:03:01.68
JUST LIKE THE LORD GAVE
BLUEPRINTS TO NOAH TO BUILD THE
00:03:01.71\00:03:04.15
ARK, HE GAVE BLUEPRINTS TO
MOSES TO BUILD A TABERNACLE.
00:03:04.18\00:03:09.05
THIS WAS TO BE THE CENTRAL
PLACE OF WORSHIP IN THE HEBREW
00:03:09.08\00:03:12.52
ECONOMY. IT WAS
A VERY SPECIFICALLY
00:03:12.55\00:03:15.56
DESIGNED BUILDING THAT
WAS TO TEACH THEM ABOUT
00:03:15.59\00:03:19.09
HOW GOD SAVES
PEOPLE. AND HERE'S A PICTURE.
00:03:19.13\00:03:21.76
AT FIRST, WHEN THEY WERE GOING
THROUGH THE WILDERNESS, THEY
00:03:21.80\00:03:24.33
NEEDED A PORTABLE TABERNACLE
BECAUSE THEY WOULD STRIKE THEIR
00:03:24.37\00:03:27.54
CAMP, MOVE TO ANOTHER SPOT,
PITCH IT AGAIN, STRIKE IT, MOVE
00:03:27.57\00:03:30.44
TO ANOTHER SPOT - THEY HAD
ALL THESE LEVITES THAT WERE
00:03:30.47\00:03:33.24
DESIGNATED TO CARRY IT ON THEIR
SHOULDERS FROM PLACE TO PLACE.
00:03:33.27\00:03:35.51
FOR 40 YEARS THEY
CARRIED THEIR TEMPLE WITH THEM.
00:03:35.54\00:03:37.65
FINALLY, WHEN THEY GOT INTO
THE PROMISED LAND, THEY BUILT A
00:03:37.68\00:03:40.28
PERMANENT ONE. BUT
THERE WERE SOME THINGS THAT
00:03:40.32\00:03:43.95
HAPPENED HERE THAT ALL
ILLUSTRATED THE PLAN OF
00:03:43.99\00:03:46.52
SALVATION. THERE
WAS ONE DOOR - HOW MANY
00:03:46.55\00:03:49.62
WAYS OF SALVATION DOES
JESUS TELL US THERE ARE?
00:03:49.66\00:03:52.76
ONE - HE IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH,
THE LIFE. HE SAID 'I AM THE
00:03:52.79\00:03:55.30
DOOR.' HE'S THE LAMB OF GOD.
PEOPLE WOULD BRING THEIR LAMB
00:03:55.33\00:03:58.67
THROUGH THAT DOOR AND THE
FIRST THING THAT HAPPENED ON THE
00:03:58.70\00:04:01.64
ENTRANCE TO THE SANCTUARY
WAS THERE WAS A SACRIFICE.
00:04:01.67\00:04:04.14
THERE WERE TWO PIECES OF
FURNITURE THAT YOU PRINCIPALLY
00:04:04.17\00:04:07.71
SAW WHEN YOU WENT IN: AFTER
YOU WENT IN THE DOOR, THE FIRST
00:04:07.74\00:04:10.85
THING WAS WHAT
THEY CALLED THE ALTAR.
00:04:10.88\00:04:12.95
THIS IS WHERE THE SACRIFICE TOOK
PLACE AND WHERE IT WAS BURNT AND
00:04:12.98\00:04:15.92
PRESENTED TO GOD -
THAT REPRESENTS THE CROSS.
00:04:15.95\00:04:18.35
THE NEXT PIECE OF
FURNITURE YOU SAW WAS THE LAVER.
00:04:18.39\00:04:21.96
IT WAS WHERE THIS WATER WAS AND
THEY WOULD WASH, THEN, BEFORE
00:04:21.99\00:04:26.80
THEY ENTERED THE HOLY PLACE.
SO, IN EGYPT, THE CHILDREN OF
00:04:26.83\00:04:31.50
ISRAEL, BEFORE THEY WERE SAVED
FROM SLAVERY, THEY SACRIFICED A
00:04:31.53\00:04:34.07
LAMB. THEN THEY
WENT THROUGH THE RED
00:04:34.10\00:04:36.54
SEA. THAT WATER
IS A SYMBOL OF, LIKE,
00:04:36.57\00:04:39.34
BAPTISM. PAUL SAYS
THAT IN 1 CORINTHIANS
00:04:39.37\00:04:42.38
CHAPTER 10. THEY WERE BAPTIZED
IN THE SEA. WHEN THEY WENT DOWN
00:04:42.41\00:04:45.11
THROUGH THE RED SEA AND CAME
UP IT WAS SORT OF A SYMBOLIC
00:04:45.15\00:04:47.65
BAPTISM. THE BIBLE TELLS
US THAT JESUS IS THE LAMB.
00:04:47.68\00:04:50.42
JESUS IS THE ROCK.
JESUS IS THE LIVING WATER.
00:04:50.45\00:04:53.99
EVERYTHING YOU LOOK AT IN THE
TABERNACLE TELLS US ABOUT JESUS.
00:04:54.02\00:04:56.93
THEN YOU WENT INTO WHAT THEY
CALL THE HOLY PLACE - THE FIRST
00:04:56.96\00:05:00.53
ROOM OF THE TABERNACLE - AND
THE FIRST THING YOU SAW WHEN YOU
00:05:00.56\00:05:04.40
WENT INTO THE HOLY PLACE
WAS THIS TABLE OF SHOWBREAD.
00:05:04.43\00:05:07.44
JESUS SAID, 'I AM THE BREAD
OF LIFE.' RIGHT? THE OTHER THING
00:05:07.47\00:05:12.24
YOU SAW WAS A LAMPSTAND
WITH SEVEN LAMPS ON IT.
00:05:12.27\00:05:16.21
THAT'S BECAUSE JESUS SAID, 'I
AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD.' AND
00:05:16.24\00:05:19.35
THEN THE THIRD THING YOU SAW WAS
THIS ALTAR OF INCENSE AND THAT'S
00:05:19.38\00:05:24.95
WHERE THEY WOULD SPRINKLE
INCENSE AND THE PLEASANT AROMA
00:05:24.99\00:05:28.66
WOULD WAFT OVER THE
CURTAIN INTO THE HOLY OF HOLIES
00:05:28.69\00:05:31.89
OR THE MOST HOLY PLACE.
THIS REPRESENTS THE PRAYERS -
00:05:31.93\00:05:36.16
THE INTERCESSION - OF
JESUS. WE PRAY IN HIS NAME.
00:05:36.20\00:05:39.53
SO, BEFORE WE GO ANY FARTHER,
WE SAW THREE THINGS IN THE
00:05:39.57\00:05:42.80
HOLY PLACE: THOSE ARE THE
THREE SECRET WEAPONS FOR YOUR
00:05:42.84\00:05:46.74
BEING SUCCESSFUL AS A
CHRISTIAN. DID YOU CATCH IT?
00:05:46.78\00:05:50.18
BREAD, LIGHT,
THE ALTAR OF INCENSE.
00:05:50.21\00:05:54.98
THAT'S READING YOUR BIBLE -
THAT'S THE BREAD OF LIFE - MAN
00:05:55.02\00:05:57.82
DOESN'T LIVE BY BREAD ALONE,
BUT BY EVERY WORD - RIGHT?
00:05:57.85\00:06:00.06
GOD SAID LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE
- BE A WITNESS - AND YOU NEED TO
00:06:00.09\00:06:04.76
PRAY. THAT'S
THAT ALTAR OF INCENSE.
00:06:04.79\00:06:07.13
THOSE THREE THINGS ARE THE KEYS
TO HAVING A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP
00:06:07.20\00:06:10.37
WITH GOD. NOW YOU
WENT THROUGH THE VEIL
00:06:10.40\00:06:13.27
INTO WHAT THEY CALLED THE HOLY
OF HOLIES AND THERE WAS ONLY ONE
00:06:13.30\00:06:16.50
THING IN THERE. WHAT
WAS THAT? THAT WAS THE ARK -
00:06:16.54\00:06:22.28
THE GOLDEN ARK OF THE COVENANT
- AND THERE - WHAT WAS INSIDE?
00:06:22.31\00:06:27.38
>>TEN COMMANDMENTS.
>>TEN COMMANDMENTS.
00:06:27.42\00:06:30.29
WHEN YOU READ THE BIBLE PROPHECY
BOOKS OF ISAIAH, "IN THE YEAR" -
00:06:30.32\00:06:35.76
CHAPTER 6 - "IN THE YEAR THAT
KING UZZIAH DIED, I SAW THE LORD
00:06:35.79\00:06:37.99
SITTING ON A THRONE, HIGH
AND LIFTED UP, AND THE TRAIN OF
00:06:38.03\00:06:40.36
HIS ROBE FILLED THE TEMPLE."
THE VISION IS IN THE TEMPLE.
00:06:40.40\00:06:42.86
EZEKIEL - I READ IT TODAY IN MY
PERSONAL DEVOTIONS - CHAPTER 40
00:06:42.90\00:06:45.47
- HE'S MEASURING THE TEMPLE
- THE VISION'S IN THE TEMPLE.
00:06:45.50\00:06:47.94
ZECHARIAH, DANIEL, THE CONTEXT
OF SO MANY OF THESE GREAT
00:06:47.97\00:06:52.21
PROPHECIES - REVELATION - ARE
IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS BUILDING.
00:06:52.24\00:06:58.28
THERE ARE SOME SECRET LESSONS
THAT WE CAN LEARN ABOUT GOD AND
00:06:58.31\00:07:02.52
HOW HE SAVES - AND EVEN
PROPHECY - FROM STUDYING THIS.
00:07:02.55\00:07:06.25
SO, ONE OF THE IMPORTANT
THINGS THAT HAPPENED WITH JESUS'
00:07:06.29\00:07:09.82
MINISTRY - LET'S GO TO
THE LESSON - THE STORY AT THE
00:07:09.86\00:07:12.33
BEGINNING OF YOUR LESSON.
IS - THE CENTER OF WORSHIP FOR
00:07:12.36\00:07:17.23
THE JEWISH NATION AT THE TIME
OF CHRIST WAS THE JEWISH TEMPLE.
00:07:17.27\00:07:20.34
NOW THE TEMPLE, DURING THE TIME
OF JESUS, WAS THE ONE THAT HAD
00:07:20.37\00:07:23.81
BEEN REBUILT. NEBUCHADNEZZAR HAD
DESTROYED THE ONE OF SOLOMON.
00:07:23.84\00:07:27.91
IT LASTED ABOUT 400 YEARS AND
THEN NEBUCHADNEZZAR DESTROYED IT
00:07:27.94\00:07:30.85
AND THEN YEARS LATER - 70 YEARS
LATER - THEY CAME BACK AND,
00:07:30.88\00:07:34.05
DURING THE TIME OF EZRA
AND NEHEMIAH, THEY REBUILT IT
00:07:34.08\00:07:36.32
BUT IT DIDN'T HAVE
QUITE THE FORMER GLORY.
00:07:36.35\00:07:38.55
BUT THEN, ALONG CAME A
ROMAN-JEWISH KING - HASMONEAN
00:07:38.59\00:07:43.29
KING - NAMED HEROD THE
GREAT WHO WAS QUITE A BUILDER.
00:07:43.32\00:07:46.96
HE LOVED TO BUILD
- PASSIONATE BUILDER.
00:07:47.00\00:07:48.73
HE BUILT MASADA.
HE BUILT CAESAREA.
00:07:48.76\00:07:51.17
HE BUILT EVERYWHERE. HE
ALSO WAS PRETTY HEARTLESS.
00:07:51.20\00:07:54.47
HE'S THE ONE WHO KILLED
THE BABIES IN BETHLEHEM.
00:07:54.50\00:07:56.17
BUT TO SHOW, FOR POLITICAL
REASONS, THE JEWS THAT HE WOULD
00:07:56.20\00:07:59.64
BE A GOOD KING, HE REFURBISHED
THEIR TEMPLE AND IT WAS A
00:07:59.67\00:08:02.24
BEAUTIFUL PLACE AND IT STILL WAS
THE PLACE WHERE THEY WORSHIPED.
00:08:02.28\00:08:05.21
SO WHEN JESUS CAME IN TO TEACH
IN THE TEMPLE, YOU KNOW, THE
00:08:05.25\00:08:09.08
PEOPLE WOULD BRING THEIR
SACRIFICES, WELL THE RELIGIOUS
00:08:09.12\00:08:11.99
LEADERS HAD TURNED IT INTO A
BAZAAR WHERE THEY WERE SELLING
00:08:12.02\00:08:15.86
LAMBS, SELLING DOVES, SELLING
SACRIFICES - THE COURTYARD OF
00:08:15.89\00:08:20.23
THE TEMPLE THAT WAS SUPPOSED
TO BE A PLACE OF PRAYER,
00:08:20.26\00:08:23.00
AND PRAISE, AND WORSHIP -
IT SOUNDED LIKE A FLEA MARKET
00:08:23.03\00:08:26.63
AND--IT WAS LIKE A
STOCKADE AUCTION HOUSE.
00:08:26.67\00:08:28.87
EVERYBODY WAS FIGHTING OVER
THE PRICE OF SACRIFICES AND IT
00:08:28.90\00:08:31.51
SMELLED AND JESUS WALKED
IN THERE ONE DAY AND HE SAID,
00:08:31.54\00:08:36.18
'MY FATHER'S HOUSE IS A HOUSE
OF PRAYER FOR ALL NATIONS.'
00:08:36.21\00:08:40.15
BY THE WAY, HE'S
QUOTING THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:08:40.18\00:08:41.78
HE SAID, 'YOU'VE TURNED IT INTO
A DEN OF THIEVES.' FIRE FLASHED
00:08:41.82\00:08:45.89
FROM HIS EYES. HE OVERTURNED
THE MONEYCHANGERS' TABLES.
00:08:45.92\00:08:49.66
YOU REMEMBER READING ABOUT THIS?
HE MADE A CORD - A WHIP OUT OF
00:08:49.69\00:08:53.13
CORDS IT DOESN'T SAY HE WHIPPED
ANYBODY BUT HIS HOLDING IT WAS
00:08:53.16\00:08:55.33
PROBABLY ENOUGH. AND
THEN HE SAID, IN JOHN
00:08:55.36\00:08:58.30
CHAPTER 2, VERSE 16,
"TAKE THESE THINGS HENCE!
00:08:58.33\00:09:01.14
MAKE NOT MY FATHER'S
HOUSE A HOUSE OF MERCHANDISE!"
00:09:01.17\00:09:05.01
NOTICE, JESUS SAID, 'MY FATHER'S
HOUSE.' AT THE END OF CHRIST'S
00:09:05.04\00:09:09.74
MINISTRY WHEN THE RELIGIOUS
LEADERS REJECTED HIS TEACHING,
00:09:09.78\00:09:13.68
HE SAID, 'BEHOLD, YOUR
HOUSE IS LEFT TO YOU DESOLATE.'
00:09:13.72\00:09:18.92
THAT'S INTERESTING TO
CONSIDER. THERE'S A CHANGE.
00:09:18.95\00:09:22.42
NOW, QUESTION #1: WHAT IS THE
STARTING POINT FOR THE 2300-DAY
00:09:22.46\00:09:28.30
AND 70-WEEK TIME PROPHECIES?
NOW GET YOUR BIBLES, TURN WITH
00:09:28.33\00:09:33.13
ME TO DANIEL 9:23, "AT THE
BEGINNING OF YOUR SUPPLICATIONS
00:09:33.17\00:09:38.97
THE COMMANDMENT WENT OUT, AND
I HAVE COME TO TELL YOU, FOR YOU
00:09:39.01\00:09:41.08
ARE GREATLY BELOVED; THEREFORE
CONSIDER THE MATTER, AND
00:09:41.11\00:09:43.24
UNDERSTAND THE VISION:" NOW
THERE'S NO VISION IN CHAPTER 9
00:09:43.28\00:09:45.98
SO WHAT VISION IS
THE ANGEL TALKING ABOUT?
00:09:46.01\00:09:48.75
THE ONE IN CHAPTER 8 HE DIDN'T
GET TO FINISH EXPLAINING BECAUSE
00:09:48.78\00:09:52.15
DANIEL FAINTED, RIGHT?
"SEVENTY WEEKS" - HERE WE GO,
00:09:52.19\00:09:56.39
VERSE 24 - DANIEL 9:24 -
"SEVENTY WEEKS ARE DETERMINED
00:09:56.42\00:09:59.96
FOR YOUR PEOPLE" -
WHO WERE DANIEL'S PEOPLE?
00:10:00.00\00:10:02.40
JEWISH NATION - SEVENTY WEEKS -
THE WORD DETERMINED THERE MEANS
00:10:02.43\00:10:06.84
'CUT OFF' OR 'ALLOTTED'
OR 'REMAIN' FOR YOUR PEOPLE.
00:10:06.87\00:10:10.44
FOR WHAT? TO INTRODUCE
THE MESSIAH TO THE WORLD.
00:10:10.47\00:10:12.97
"AND FOR YOUR HOLY CITY,
TO FINISH THE TRANSGRESSION,
00:10:13.01\00:10:18.38
TO MAKE AN END OF SINS," - THE
FINAL SACRIFICE FOR SIN WOULD BE
00:10:18.41\00:10:21.55
OFFERED - "TO MAKE
RECONCILIATION FOR INIQUITY, TO
00:10:21.58\00:10:25.09
BRING IN EVERLASTING
RIGHTEOUSNESS," - THAT'S CHRIST
00:10:25.12\00:10:28.06
WHO BRINGS THAT EVERLASTING
RIGHTEOUSNESS - "TO SEAL UP THE
00:10:28.09\00:10:30.76
VISION AND PROPHECY, AND
TO ANOINT THE MOST HOLY."
00:10:30.79\00:10:37.00
SO HE SAID SEVENTY WEEKS ARE
DETERMINED FOR ALL THESE THINGS
00:10:37.03\00:10:39.03
TO BE ACCOMPLISHED. "KNOW
THEREFORE AND UNDERSTAND,"
00:10:39.07\00:10:41.77
- NOW HERE IS THE STARTING POINT
FOR ALL THESE PROPHECIES - "KNOW
00:10:41.80\00:10:45.04
THEREFORE AND UNDERSTAND,
THAT FROM THE GOING FORTH OF THE
00:10:45.07\00:10:48.24
COMMAND TO RESTORE AND BUILD
JERUSALEM UNTIL MESSIAH THE
00:10:48.28\00:10:53.25
PRINCE," - FROM THIS POINT
TO THIS POINT - "THERE SHALL BE
00:10:53.28\00:10:56.38
SEVEN WEEKS AND THREE-SCORE AND
TWO WEEKS;" ALRIGHT, THREE-SCORE
00:10:56.42\00:10:59.69
AND TWO IS SIXTY-TWO,
RIGHT? A SCORE IS TWENTY.
00:10:59.72\00:11:03.12
SIXTY-TWO PLUS SEVEN
IS HOW MUCH? SIXTY-NINE.
00:11:03.16\00:11:07.56
SO YOU'VE GOT ONE WEEK MISSING.
HE TELLS US WHAT HAPPENS IN THE
00:11:07.60\00:11:11.20
MIDST OF THAT LAST WEEK,
HE MAKES THE SACRIFICE CEASE.
00:11:11.23\00:11:13.90
SO HE BREAKS IT UP LIKE THAT
BECAUSE THERE'S THE FIRST SEVEN
00:11:13.94\00:11:16.84
WEEKS THEY'RE BUILDING
THE WALL AND THE STREET.
00:11:16.87\00:11:19.51
THEN YOU'VE GOT ANOTHER
SIXTY-NINE WEEKS AND AT THE END
00:11:19.54\00:11:22.41
OF THAT SIXTY-NINE WEEK PERIOD
IT SAYS THAT THE MESSIAH IS
00:11:22.44\00:11:26.51
GOING TO BE ANOINTED
AND BEGIN HIS MINISTRY.
00:11:26.55\00:11:31.49
SO UNTO THE MESSIAH THE PRINCE
- SEVEN WEEKS; THREE-SCORE
00:11:31.52\00:11:35.69
AND TWO WEEKS. THE
STARTING POINT IS FROM THE
00:11:35.72\00:11:37.36
GOING FORTH OF THE COMMAND
TO RESTORE AND BUILD JERUSALEM.
00:11:37.39\00:11:40.60
CAN WE KNOW FROM ALL THE
DUSTY, MUSTY RECORDS OF HISTORY
00:11:40.63\00:11:43.83
WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN? GOOD
NEWS. IT'S GIVEN IN YOUR BIBLE.
00:11:43.87\00:11:48.47
IT'S IN EZRA 7:7. THE
DECREE OF KING ARTAXERXES -
00:11:48.50\00:11:52.34
THAT KING GAVE A DECREE
THAT ALLOWED THEM TO GO BACK.
00:11:52.37\00:11:56.58
IT WAS THE MOST PROMINENT
VARIETY OF DECREES THAT CAME
00:11:56.61\00:12:01.02
SAYING THAT THEY COULD
REBUILD THE CITY AND THE WALLS
00:12:01.05\00:12:03.99
AND THE TEMPLE
AND THAT IS 457 B.C.
00:12:04.02\00:12:08.39
IT IS A VERY CLEARLY
ESTABLISHED DATE IN HISTORY.

00:12:38.75\00:12:41.89
AND MOST IMPORTANT,
TO SHARE IT WITH OTHERS.
00:12:41.92\00:12:44.76
>> SO YOU'VE GOT THE
STARTING POINT - 457 -
00:12:46.76\00:12:49.73
AND HE SAYS NOW
IT'LL BE SIXTY-NINE WEEKS
00:12:49.76\00:12:52.20
UNTIL THE MESSIAH
BEGINS HIS MINISTRY.
00:12:52.23\00:12:55.50
FIRST THERE'D BE THE SEVEN WEEKS
- FORTY-NINE YEARS WHILE THEY'RE
00:12:55.54\00:12:57.77
BUILDING THE STREET AND THE WALL
IN TROUBLOUS TIMES, THEN THERE'D
00:12:57.81\00:13:00.41
BE ANOTHER SIXTY-TWO WEEKS -
A TOTAL OF SIXTY-NINE, RIGHT?
00:13:00.44\00:13:05.01
NOW WHEN YOU'RE INTERPRETING
BIBLE PROPHECY, WHAT IS THE
00:13:05.05\00:13:07.92
PRINCIPLE THAT
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO USE?
00:13:07.95\00:13:10.12
A DAY EQUALS A YEAR. >>A YEAR.
00:13:10.15\00:13:13.92
>>YOU CAN READ THIS - THERE'S
SEVERAL VERSES IN EZEKIEL 4:6,
00:13:13.96\00:13:17.06
"I HAVE APPOINTED
THEE EACH DAY FOR A YEAR."
00:13:17.09\00:13:20.13
YOU CAN READ NUMBERS 14:34 "EACH
DAY FOR A YEAR" THE ANGEL SAID
00:13:20.16\00:13:26.20
THAT IF YOU'RE TO COUNT
SIXTY-NINE WEEKS FROM 457 B.C.
00:13:26.23\00:13:31.17
YOU'D COME TO MESSIAH THE
PRINCE. SO NOW, DID IT HAPPEN?
00:13:31.21\00:13:35.54
IF YOU GO - A DAY
EQUALS A YEAR IN PROPHECY -
00:13:35.58\00:13:39.75
IF YOU GO 483
YEARS FROM 457 B.C.
00:13:39.78\00:13:44.52
IT COMES TO THE
BAPTISM OF JESUS IN 27 A.D.
00:13:44.55\00:13:48.79
MATTHEW 1:22 AND 23, "NOW THIS
WAS ALL DONE, THAT IT MIGHT BE
00:13:48.82\00:13:52.99
FULFILLED WHICH WAS SPOKEN OF
THE LORD BY THE PROPHET, SAYING,
00:13:53.03\00:13:59.03
'BEHOLD, A VIRGIN WILL BE WITH
CHILD, AND SHALL BRING FORTH A
00:13:59.07\00:14:02.84
SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL
HIS NAME EMMANUEL, WHICH BEING
00:14:02.87\00:14:06.51
INTERPRETED IS, GOD WITH US.'"
IT SAYS SPECIFICALLY IN DANIEL
00:14:06.54\00:14:10.31
9:24, PART OF THE PURPOSE WOULD
BE TO ANOINT THE MOST HOLY.
00:14:10.35\00:14:15.72
WAS JESUS ANOINTED WITH THE HOLY
SPIRIT WHEN HE WAS BAPTIZED?
00:14:15.75\00:14:20.19
DID THE SPIRIT
COME DOWN LIKE A DOVE?
00:14:20.22\00:14:22.46
WHAT MARKED THE
BEGINNING OF JESUS' MINISTRY?
00:14:22.49\00:14:25.56
HIS BAPTISM. YOU
KNOW, ONE OF THE MOST
00:14:25.59\00:14:28.96
CLEARLY ESTABLISHED DATES IN THE
NEW TESTAMENT IS LUKE CHAPTER 3,
00:14:29.00\00:14:34.00
VERSE 1. YOU HAVE YOUR BIBLE?
00:14:34.04\00:14:35.64
AND THE REASON IS THEY GIVE
SO MANY DATES - HE GIVES SO MANY
00:14:35.67\00:14:40.41
CORRESPONDING LEADERS DURING
THIS TIME, THERE'S VERY LITTLE
00:14:40.44\00:14:43.78
DOUBT ABOUT WHEN
IT WAS, HISTORICALLY.
00:14:43.81\00:14:46.15
SOME OF THESE ANCIENT
DATES IT'S HARD TO PIN DOWN,
00:14:46.18\00:14:48.05
BUT LET ME TELL YOU
WHAT DR. LUKE DID FOR US.
00:14:48.08\00:14:50.45
LUKE 3, VERSE 1, "NOW IN THE
FIFTEENTH YEAR OF THE REIGN OF
00:14:50.49\00:14:55.09
TIBERIUS CAESAR," - THAT'S
NOT THAT HARD TO ESTABLISH -
00:14:55.12\00:14:57.99
"PONTIUS PILATE BEING GOVERNOR
OF JUDEA," - THAT'S ONE MORE
00:14:58.03\00:15:02.40
BENCHMARK - "AND HEROD BEING
TETRARCH OF GALILEE, HIS BROTHER
00:15:02.43\00:15:06.23
PHILIP TETRARCH OF ITURAEA AND
OF THE REGION OF TRACHONITIS,
00:15:06.27\00:15:09.90
AND LYSANIAS THE TETRARCH
OF ABILENE, ANNAS AND CAIAPHAS
00:15:09.94\00:15:15.51
BEING THE HIGH PRIESTS, THE
WORD OF GOD CAME UNTO JOHN..."
00:15:15.54\00:15:18.31
LOOK AT ALL OF
THOSE DIFFERENT LEADERS.
00:15:18.35\00:15:20.75
YOU CAN TRIANGULATE ALL OF
THOSE DIFFERENT POINTS - WELL,
00:15:20.78\00:15:24.55
TRIANGULATE WOULD BE ONLY THREE
- HE GIVES ABOUT FIVE DIFFERENT
00:15:24.59\00:15:26.96
LEADERS. THERE'S ONLY ONE DATE
IN HISTORY WHEN WE KNOW THAT
00:15:26.99\00:15:29.52
THEY ALL CORRESPONDED: 27 A.D.
IT IS SUCH A WELL-ESTABLISHED
00:15:29.56\00:15:35.10
DATE THIS IS THE YEAR
THAT JESUS WAS BAPTIZED.
00:15:35.13\00:15:38.80
THAT IS EXACTLY THE RIGHT
TIME PERIOD AFTER 457 B.C.
00:15:38.83\00:15:44.67
MARK 1:15 - WHEN JESUS BEGAN
PREACHING YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID?
00:15:44.71\00:15:49.21
"THE TIME IS FULFILLED" - RIGHT
AFTER HIS BAPTISM JESUS SAID,
00:15:49.24\00:15:52.48
"THE TIME IS FULFILLED" -
WHAT TIME IS HE TALKING ABOUT?
00:15:52.51\00:15:55.88
HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE
TIME FROM DANIEL'S PROPHECY.
00:15:55.92\00:15:58.89
HE WAS ANOINTED.
HE BEGAN TO PREACH.
00:15:58.92\00:16:01.62
THIS IS WHAT THEY
WERE ALL WAITING FOR.
00:16:01.66\00:16:03.09
EVERY JEW READ THE PROPHECY
OF DANIEL 9, WONDERING WHEN
00:16:03.12\00:16:05.96
THE MESSIAH WOULD COME.
WHICH ALSO MEANS, IF THEY HAD
00:16:05.99\00:16:09.60
BEEN STUDYING THEIR BIBLES BACK
THEN THE WAY THEY SHOULD HAVE,
00:16:09.63\00:16:12.80
THEY COULD HAVE KNOWN THE
TIME OF HIS BIRTH BECAUSE A HIGH
00:16:12.83\00:16:15.87
PRIEST COULD NOT REIGN UNTIL
HE WAS THIRTY YEARS OF AGE.
00:16:15.90\00:16:20.28
A PRIEST COULDN'T
SERVE UNTIL HE WAS THIRTY.
00:16:20.31\00:16:22.28
JOSEPH BEGAN TO RULE AT THIRTY.
DAVID BEGAN TO RULE AT THIRTY.
00:16:22.31\00:16:25.85
PRIESTS BEGAN TO RULE AT THIRTY.
THEY COULD HAVE GUESSED THE
00:16:25.88\00:16:28.52
MESSIAH WOULD BEGIN HIS MINISTRY
AT HIS THIRTIETH BIRTHDAY AND
00:16:28.55\00:16:31.55
THAT'S WHEN JESUS WAS
BAPTIZED. DID YOU KNOW THAT?
00:16:31.59\00:16:33.86
IT SAYS, 'AS JESUS BEGAN
TO BE THIRTY YEARS OF AGE' -
00:16:33.89\00:16:36.73
ALSO IN LUKE. ALL
THEY HAD TO DO WAS COUNT
00:16:36.76\00:16:38.96
BACK THIRTY YEARS FROM THE
ANOINTING POINT AND THEY COULD
00:16:38.99\00:16:41.20
HAVE GUESSED WHEN HE
WOULD HAVE BEEN BORN.
00:16:41.23\00:16:42.86
SO WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF CHARTS
HERE THAT WE'RE GOING TO PUT UP
00:16:42.90\00:16:46.13
JUST TO REVIEW
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT.
00:16:46.17\00:16:48.64
FIRST WE KNOW, FROM 457
YOU'VE GOT SIXTY-NINE WEEKS.
00:16:48.67\00:16:53.48
THAT WOULD GO 483 YEARS TO THE
POINT OF HIS BAPTISM, THAT WOULD
00:16:53.51\00:16:58.48
BE 27 A.D. WHAT
WAS TO TAKE PLACE NEXT
00:16:58.51\00:17:01.95
IN THIS PROPHECY? AND
YOU CAN READ THE ANSWER
00:17:01.98\00:17:04.89
TO THAT IS DANIEL
CHAPTER 9, VERSES 26 AND 27.
00:17:04.92\00:17:09.06
IT SAYS, "AND AFTER THREESCORE
AND TWO WEEKS SHALL MESSIAH BE"
00:17:09.09\00:17:13.40
- WHAT? >>CUT OFF.
00:17:13.43\00:17:15.70
>>"CUT OFF, BUT
NOT FOR HIMSELF."
00:17:15.73\00:17:18.67
AFTER THAT THE
MESSIAH WOULD BE CUT OFF.
00:17:18.70\00:17:21.67
YOU KNOW, THIS WAS SOMETHING
THAT A LOT OF THE RELIGIOUS
00:17:21.70\00:17:24.31
LEADERS DIDN'T UNDERSTAND AND
THEY STRUGGLED WITH BECAUSE THEY
00:17:24.34\00:17:27.21
WANTED THE MESSIAH TO COME
AND FLEX HIS MUSCLES AND BE A
00:17:27.24\00:17:32.75
COMBINATION OF KING DAVID
AND SAMSON AND OVERTHROW THE
00:17:32.78\00:17:35.22
ROMANS AND MAKE
THEM A WORLD EMPIRE.
00:17:35.25\00:17:36.99
HAVING A MESSIAH COME THAT WOULD
DIE AS A LAMB DIDN'T FIT IN VERY
00:17:37.02\00:17:41.29
WELL WITH WHAT THEIR
HOPES AND DREAMS WERE.
00:17:41.32\00:17:43.53
THEN IT GOES ON AND IT
SAYS, "AND HE SHALL CONFIRM THE
00:17:43.56\00:17:47.00
COVENANT WITH MANY FOR ONE WEEK:
AND IN THE MIDST OF THAT WEEK HE
00:17:47.03\00:17:52.60
SHALL CAUSE THE SACRIFICE
AND THE OBLATION TO CEASE."
00:17:52.63\00:17:56.71
THE MESSIAH IS ANOINTED
BUT JESUS DOESN'T PREACH
00:17:56.74\00:17:59.04
SEVEN YEARS, HE ONLY
PREACHES HALF OF THAT.
00:17:59.07\00:18:01.21
HE PREACHES THREE AND A HALF
YEARS IN PERSON AND THEN HE IS
00:18:01.24\00:18:04.91
CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF
THAT LAST WEEK THAT REACHES TO
00:18:04.95\00:18:09.75
34 A.D. CHRIST DIES IN 31
A.D. HE SAYS, 'I WILL PREACH.
00:18:09.78\00:18:14.89
I'M GOING TO TRAIN
MY TWELVE APOSTLES.
00:18:14.92\00:18:17.26
I WILL PREACH' AND HE SAYS
- WHEN HE LEAVES AND GOES TO
00:18:17.29\00:18:20.20
HEAVEN HE TELLS THE APOSTLES,
'AS THE FATHER SENT ME, SO SEND
00:18:20.23\00:18:23.30
I YOU.' BUT, CATCH THIS, JESUS
DID NOT SAY 'GO TO THE WORLD
00:18:23.33\00:18:28.47
FIRST.' MATTER OF FACT,
HE SAID, 'DON'T GO ANYWHERE.
00:18:28.50\00:18:31.51
WAIT IN JERUSALEM UNTIL
YOU RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:18:31.54\00:18:34.18
AND WHEN YOU RECEIVE THE HOLY
SPIRIT YOU'LL BE MY WITNESSES.
00:18:34.21\00:18:37.71
FIRST JERUSALEM, THEN JUDEA'
- I'M IN ACTS CHAPTER 1 - 'THEN
00:18:37.75\00:18:43.02
SAMARIA AND THE UTTERMOST PARTS
OF THE EARTH.' WHEN CHRIST SENT
00:18:43.05\00:18:46.42
THEM OUT PREACHING AFTER HE
ROSE, HE SAID, 'GO NOT IN THE
00:18:46.45\00:18:48.82
WAY OF THE GENTILES, BUT GO
RATHER TO THE LOST SHEEP OF THE
00:18:48.86\00:18:54.20
HOUSE OF ISRAEL.' HE
WANTED TO FINISH CONFIRMING
00:18:54.20\00:18:57.37
THE COVENANT TO
HIS OWN PEOPLE FIRST.
00:18:57.40\00:19:00.20
AND SO THE LORD SPECIFICALLY
KEPT HIS PROMISE TO ABRAHAM.
00:19:00.24\00:19:04.44
HE SAID, 'I'M GOING TO CONFIRM
THE COVENANT TO YOUR PEOPLE FOR
00:19:04.47\00:19:06.81
A FULL SEVEN YEARS.' THREE AND A
HALF YEARS THROUGH THE MESSIAH,
00:19:06.84\00:19:10.35
HE WILL BE CUT OFF. IN
ANOTHER THREE AND A HALF
00:19:10.38\00:19:13.35
YEARS THROUGH THOSE WHO
HEARD HIM - THE APOSTLES.
00:19:13.38\00:19:16.79
YOU LOOK AT THE BOTTOM PART OF
THIS CHART HERE, YOU'VE GOT THE
00:19:16.82\00:19:18.85
FIRST SIXTY-NINE
WEEKS CHRIST IS BAPTIZED.
00:19:18.89\00:19:21.62
THREE AND A HALF
YEARS HE PREACHES IN PERSON.
00:19:21.66\00:19:25.33
THREE AND A HALF YEARS HE
PREACHES THROUGH THE APOSTLES.
00:19:25.36\00:19:28.76
AT THE END OF THAT, IN
34 A.D., SOMETHING HAPPENS.
00:19:28.80\00:19:32.20
ALRIGHT, GO TO
YOUR BIBLES REAL QUICK.
00:19:32.23\00:19:33.87
TURN TO ACTS CHAPTER 7.
IN ACTS CHAPTER 7 STEPHEN IS
00:19:33.90\00:19:41.28
THE FIRST MARTYR OF
THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
00:19:41.31\00:19:44.48
AFTER HE WAS FALSELY TRIED BY
THE SAME PEOPLE WHO TRIED JESUS,
00:19:44.51\00:19:49.25
HE TOLD THEM THE WONDERFUL
GOSPEL THAT PETER HAD PREACHED
00:19:49.28\00:19:54.36
AT PENTECOST THREE AND A HALF
YEARS EARLIER, BUT INSTEAD OF
00:19:54.39\00:19:58.96
REPENTING AND SAYING,
'WHAT MUST WE DO TO BE SAVED?'
00:19:58.99\00:20:01.10
THE SUPREME COURT, THE LEADERS,
THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
00:20:01.13\00:20:03.93
NATION PLUGGED THEIR
EARS. THEY GNASHED THEIR TEETH.
00:20:03.97\00:20:08.07
THEY DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR IT.
THEY CRIED OUT - VERSE 57 - ACTS
00:20:08.10\00:20:12.51
7:57 - "THEN THEY CRIED OUT WITH
A LOUD VOICE, AND STOPPED THEIR
00:20:12.54\00:20:16.11
EARS, AND RAN UPON HIM WITH ONE
ACCORD, AND CAST HIM OUT OF THE
00:20:16.14\00:20:18.61
CITY, AND STONED HIM: AND
THE WITNESSES LAID DOWN THEIR
00:20:18.65\00:20:22.72
CLOTHES AT A YOUNG MAN'S
FEET, WHOSE NAME WAS SAUL."
00:20:22.75\00:20:26.15
WHOSE NAME WAS
LATER CHANGED TO: >>PAUL.
00:20:26.19\00:20:28.52
>>WOW, ISN'T THIS A PIVOTAL
POINT IN HISTORY? 34 A.D.
00:20:28.56\00:20:32.56
THE NATION OFFICIALLY PLUGS
THEIR EARS - SAYS WE DON'T WANT
00:20:32.59\00:20:36.13
TO HEAR ABOUT JESUS ANYMORE.
THEY KILL HIS REPRESENTATIVE THE
00:20:36.16\00:20:39.53
SAME WAY THEY KILLED JESUS -
FALSELY TRIED, TAKEN OUT OF THE
00:20:39.57\00:20:42.44
CITY BY A MOB, EXECUTED, CLOTHES
ARE LAID DOWN - THE CLOTHES OF
00:20:42.47\00:20:47.74
CHRIST WERE TAKEN AWAY.
AND IT SAYS, IF YOU READ
00:20:47.78\00:20:51.01
CHAPTER 8, VERSE 1, "AND SAUL
WAS CONSENTING UNTO HIS DEATH.
00:20:51.05\00:20:56.05
AND AT THAT TIME THERE WAS A
GREAT PERSECUTION AGAINST THE
00:20:56.08\00:20:59.09
CHURCH WHICH WAS AT JERUSALEM;
AND THEY WERE ALL SCATTERED
00:20:59.12\00:21:02.96
ABROAD THROUGHOUT THE
REGIONS OF JUDEA AND SAMARIA,
00:21:02.99\00:21:05.36
EXCEPT THE APOSTLES."
THEY WENT EVERYWHERE PREACHING.
00:21:05.39\00:21:07.13
THERE'S A GREAT PERSECUTION
AND THAT JUST TOTALLY SEALS WHAT
00:21:07.20\00:21:12.20
HAPPENED HERE IN
THAT TIME PERIOD.
00:21:12.23\00:21:15.44
ACCORDING TO THE ANGEL WHO SPOKE
WITH DANIEL, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN
00:21:15.47\00:21:18.41
AT THE END OF THE
2,300-YEAR PERIOD OF TIME?
00:21:18.44\00:21:22.24
ANSWER: IT SAYS IN DANIEL 8:14,
"AND HE SAID UNTO ME, 'UNTO TWO
00:21:22.28\00:21:26.82
THOUSAND AND THREE HUNDRED DAYS;
THEN SHALL THE SANCTUARY BE
00:21:26.85\00:21:31.79
CLEANSED." NOW GO - GO BACK
TO YOUR BIBLES FOR A SECOND.
00:21:31.82\00:21:35.39
IF YOU LOOK IN DANIEL CHAPTER 8
AND IF WE READ DOWN HERE - VERSE
00:21:35.42\00:21:40.96
12 - "BECAUSE OF TRANSGRESSION,
AN ARMY WAS GIVEN OVER TO THE
00:21:40.96\00:21:45.67
HORN TO OPPOSE THE DAILY
SACRIFICES; AND HE CAST TRUTH
00:21:45.70\00:21:49.20
DOWN TO THE GROUND. HE
DID ALL THIS AND PROSPERED."
00:21:49.24\00:21:55.28
SO WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THE TRUTH
OF GOD AND THE TRUTH OF THE
00:21:55.31\00:22:00.25
BIBLE AND THE TRUTH OF
JESUS, DURING THIS TIME,
00:22:00.28\00:22:02.48
BECOMES COMPROMISED
AND YET IT PROSPERS.
00:22:02.52\00:22:05.92
WELL, I'M GOING TO GIVE
YOU A LITTLE QUICK HISTORY.
00:22:05.95\00:22:08.69
I WON'T DIVERGE ON THIS,
BUT I THINK MOST OF US KNOW THAT
00:22:08.72\00:22:14.30
DURING THIS PERIOD OF TIME
YOU KNOW, ABOUT THREE OR FOUR
00:22:14.36\00:22:17.53
HUNDRED YEARS AFTER CHRIST,
ORIGINALLY CHRISTIANS WERE
00:22:17.57\00:22:21.00
PERSECUTED IN ROME. THEY
FED THEM TO THE LIONS, RIGHT?
00:22:21.04\00:22:24.27
WHAT WAS ONCE CONSIDERED
RELIGIO-ILLICITA - FORBIDDEN
00:22:24.31\00:22:27.74
RELIGION - WAS PERSECUTED,
OUTLAWED - THEY WERE KILLED.
00:22:27.78\00:22:30.68
THEY BUILT CATACOMBS.
00:22:30.71\00:22:32.01
THEY WENT UNDERGROUND -
IT SUDDENLY BECAME THE STATE
00:22:32.05\00:22:34.35
RELIGION AND IT ALMOST OVERNIGHT
BECAME FASHIONABLE, WITH THE
00:22:34.38\00:22:38.29
CONVERSION OF CONSTANTINE,
TO BECOME A CHRISTIAN.
00:22:38.32\00:22:41.02
BUT WHAT HAPPENED IS A LOT OF
PEOPLE STARTED COMING INTO THE
00:22:41.06\00:22:44.19
CHURCH FROM THE DIFFERENT
GRECO-ROMAN RELIGIONS THAT
00:22:44.23\00:22:46.86
WEREN'T TOTALLY CONVERTED -
DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THE TEACHINGS
00:22:46.90\00:22:49.90
OF JESUS - AND THEY TRIED TO
BRING SOME OF THEIR PAGAN IDEAS
00:22:49.93\00:22:52.37
WITH THEM. WE
STUDIED THE OTHER NIGHT ABOUT
00:22:52.40\00:22:55.60
THE TRUTH ABOUT HELL - THAT
PEOPLE DO NOT GO RIGHT AT DEATH
00:22:55.64\00:23:01.28
TO - BEFORE JUDGMENT OR
RESURRECTION - A PLACE OF
00:23:01.31\00:23:03.31
BURNING WHERE THEY
BURN THROUGH ALL ETERNITY.
00:23:03.35\00:23:05.75
DID WE - WE LEARNED THERE
IS A LAKE OF FIRE, THERE IS A
00:23:05.78\00:23:07.82
PUNISHMENT, BUT THERE'S
MISUNDERSTANDING THAT CAME IN
00:23:07.85\00:23:10.19
FROM GREEK MYTHOLOGY, RIGHT?
CAST THE TRUTH TO THE GROUND
00:23:10.22\00:23:14.26
IN PRACTICE. THE
IDEA OF PURGATORY,
00:23:14.29\00:23:16.56
THIS HALFWAY BURNING PLACE,
WE FOUND OUT THAT THAT'S BEEN
00:23:16.59\00:23:19.29
NOW RENOUNCED.
IT'S NOT BIBLICAL.
00:23:19.33\00:23:21.26
THERE'S NOTHING IN
THE BIBLE ABOUT THAT.
00:23:21.30\00:23:22.70
THE IDEA THAT THE DEAD GO
IMMEDIATELY TO HEAVEN AS SOON AS
00:23:22.73\00:23:25.97
THEY DIE AND THEN THEY COME BACK
FOR THEIR BODIES OR THEY'RE IN
00:23:26.00\00:23:29.24
ABRAHAM'S BOSOM WAITING.
WE FOUND OUT THAT'S NOT IN THE
00:23:29.27\00:23:32.41
BIBLE AND A LOT OF OTHER
THINGS - THE TRUTH WAS CAST
00:23:32.44\00:23:36.34
TO THE GROUND. THE
IDEA THAT YOU DON'T NEED
00:23:36.38\00:23:38.81
TO KEEP THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
ANYMORE BECAUSE ONCE YOU BELIEVE
00:23:38.85\00:23:41.58
IN JESUS YOU CAN SOMEHOW NOW
IGNORE HIS LAW, THAT'S ANOTHER
00:23:41.62\00:23:44.69
ONE OF THE TRUTHS THAT
WAS CAST TO THE GROUND.
00:23:44.72\00:23:47.99
ALL KINDS OF THINGS BEGAN TO
GET CORRUPTED DURING THIS TIME.
00:23:48.02\00:23:51.19
SO, WHEN WOULD THERE BE A
CLEANSING OF THE SANCTUARY?
00:23:51.23\00:23:55.90
ALRIGHT, SO NOW, STARTING AT
457, YOU GO 2,300 AND YOU KNOW
00:23:55.93\00:24:02.07
WHEN THAT COMES? TWO THOUSAND -
00:24:02.10\00:24:04.71
THAT'S THE LONGEST
TIME PERIOD IN THE BIBLE.
00:24:04.74\00:24:06.88
THAT REACHES TO 1844.
I'LL PUT A CHART UP HERE.
00:24:06.91\00:24:11.35
THE MOVEMENT THAT IS BRINGING
YOU THIS SERIES OF STUDIES,
00:24:11.38\00:24:15.72
REALLY FOUND ITS BEGINNING BACK
THEN BECAUSE IN 1844 CHRISTIANS
00:24:15.75\00:24:21.02
ALL OVER THE WORLD
THOUGHT THAT JESUS WAS COMING.
00:24:21.06\00:24:23.63
THEY CALLED IT THE
GREAT ADVENT MOVEMENT .
00:24:23.66\00:24:25.79
IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS BECAUSE
00:24:25.83\00:24:28.23
THERE WERE NO SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTISTS BACK THEN.
00:24:28.26\00:24:29.80
THE WORD ADVENT MEANS 'COMING'.
THEY THOUGHT JESUS WAS COMING.
00:24:29.83\00:24:33.80
HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE HEARD
THIS BEFORE? THEY CALLED IT THE
00:24:33.84\00:24:35.80
MILLERITE MOVEMENT.
THEY WERE BAPTISTS AND
00:24:35.84\00:24:37.64
METHODISTS AND PRESBYTERIANS
AND CONGREGATIONALISTS AND WHEN
00:24:37.67\00:24:40.34
JESUS DIDN'T COME THEY
SAID, 'LOOK, IT'S NOT GOD'S WILL
00:24:40.38\00:24:45.01
WE HAVE ALL THESE
DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS.
00:24:45.05\00:24:46.61
WE'VE GOT TO PUT ASIDE OUR
DIFFERENCES AND STUDY THE BIBLE
00:24:46.65\00:24:49.55
TOGETHER AND FIND OUT
'WHERE HAVE WE DRIFTED?'
00:24:49.58\00:24:52.52
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE LORD
BEGAN A MOVEMENT THAT BROUGHT
00:24:52.55\00:24:55.59
THEM ALL BACK TO THE WORD OF
GOD AND THAT TRANSLATED INTO A
00:24:55.62\00:25:01.10
MOVEMENT THAT IS NOW 17 MILLION
STRONG AND GOING AROUND THE
00:25:01.13\00:25:04.00
WORLD AND THEY'RE HELPING
SPONSOR THESE MEETINGS THAT
00:25:04.03\00:25:06.84
YOU'RE RECEIVING RIGHT
NOW. PEOPLE WHO ARE SAYING THAT
00:25:06.87\00:25:10.14
CHRISTIANS, IN THE LAST DAYS,
NEED TO RETURN TO THE BIBLE.
00:25:10.17\00:25:12.34
REVELATION TELLS US
THERE ARE SEVEN CHURCHES.
00:25:12.37\00:25:15.51
THE LAST AGE OF THE
CHURCH IS CALLED WHAT?
00:25:15.54\00:25:18.25
>>LAODICEA. >>LAODICEA.
00:25:18.28\00:25:19.88
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT
MEANS? A JUDGING OF THE PEOPLE.
00:25:19.91\00:25:21.98
AND WE ENTERED THE LAST PHASE
OF THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH
00:25:22.02\00:25:27.22
IN 1844.
