- [Announcer] This presentation
is brought to you by
00:00:02.16\00:00:04.03
the friends of the
Amazing Facts Ministry.
00:00:04.03\00:00:06.60
- Have you ever been
so nervous, frightened,
00:00:08.44\00:00:10.74
or upset that you fainted.
00:00:10.74\00:00:12.67
About 15% of adults are apt
to faint at the sight of blood.
00:00:12.67\00:00:16.31
And it's not uncommon
for people to pass out
00:00:16.31\00:00:18.98
at weddings or
other public ceremonies
00:00:18.98\00:00:20.75
that require
prolonged standing or stress.
00:00:20.75\00:00:23.95
People have even
been known to faint
00:00:23.95\00:00:25.95
in response to disturbing
movies, or when they're
00:00:25.95\00:00:29.76
startled. The medical term
for this is vasovagal syncope.
00:00:29.76\00:00:32.79
A condition caused by an extreme
00:00:32.79\00:00:34.73
and rapid drop in blood pressure
00:00:34.73\00:00:36.73
that causes an individual to
temporarily lose consciousness.
00:00:36.73\00:00:40.44
In Daniel chapter eight,
00:00:40.44\00:00:41.94
we read that one of
God's great prophets
00:00:41.94\00:00:44.11
had a similar experience,
00:00:44.11\00:00:45.77
when he saw something in
vision that was so distressing,
00:00:45.77\00:00:48.74
he fainted from shock
and was sick for days.
00:00:48.74\00:00:52.18
But what happened in
this disturbing vision
00:00:52.18\00:00:54.48
that so troubled the prophet?
00:00:54.48\00:00:56.35
And what's the meaning of
the terrifying image he saw?
00:00:56.35\00:00:59.92
How does this
longest Bible time prophecy
00:00:59.92\00:01:02.12
relate to God's
people and the anti-Christ?
00:01:02.12\00:01:05.16
You might be surprised how
the answers to these questions
00:01:05.16\00:01:07.66
affect your life today.
00:01:07.66\00:01:09.93
So join me now, as
we take a closer look
00:01:09.93\00:01:12.30
at this very important subject.
00:01:12.30\00:01:13.77
(wind swooshing)
00:01:13.77\00:01:16.67
Wanna welcome
those who are watching
00:01:17.87\00:01:19.27
"The Panorama of Prophecy."
00:01:19.27\00:01:21.01
And tonight we're
gonna live up to our name.
00:01:21.01\00:01:22.84
We're getting into
some industrial strength,
00:01:22.84\00:01:25.55
Bible prophecy study.
00:01:25.55\00:01:27.38
It doesn't get any deeper
than we're getting tonight.
00:01:27.38\00:01:30.92
So I hope that you'll take
a deep breath and ask the Lord
00:01:30.92\00:01:34.46
for the Holy
Spirit to just guide you
00:01:34.46\00:01:36.49
in this seminar as we proceed.
00:01:36.49\00:01:38.39
Just a little
review very quickly.
00:01:38.39\00:01:40.56
As we talked about
the sanctuary on earth
00:01:40.56\00:01:42.66
is modeled after
a temple in heaven.
00:01:42.66\00:01:44.90
And so, when we're
talking about the Bible temple,
00:01:44.90\00:01:48.70
you've got three tabernacles
in the Old Testament.
00:01:48.70\00:01:52.57
First one, they
built in the wilderness.
00:01:52.57\00:01:54.74
Moses
instructed them to make it.
00:01:54.74\00:01:56.64
It was portable,
called it the tabernacle.
00:01:56.64\00:01:59.31
That eventually
kind of fell apart,
00:02:00.45\00:02:01.82
and David supplied the plans
and the materials for his son,
00:02:01.82\00:02:05.15
Solomon to build the most
glorious of the earthly temples.
00:02:05.15\00:02:10.23
That one lasted
for about 400 years.
00:02:11.29\00:02:12.66
It was then destroyed
by king Nebuchadnezzar,
00:02:12.66\00:02:14.56
the king of Babylon.
00:02:14.56\00:02:15.83
This is all in near
history books in fifth grade,
00:02:15.83\00:02:17.80
it talks about that.
00:02:17.80\00:02:19.37
And after the
Babylonian captivity,
00:02:19.37\00:02:22.84
the Persian king let
them go back to Israel.
00:02:22.84\00:02:25.44
They rebuilt it, it
wasn't near as glorious.
00:02:25.44\00:02:28.14
But Herod the Great came along
00:02:28.14\00:02:29.74
and he wanted to
go and embellish it.
00:02:29.74\00:02:32.05
He spent years fortifying
the earthly sanctuary.
00:02:32.05\00:02:35.68
And even during
Jesus time, they said,
00:02:35.68\00:02:38.42
"You're gonna destroy
this temple in three days,
00:02:38.42\00:02:40.19
it's taken us 40 and two
years to build this temple."
00:02:40.19\00:02:43.32
Well, that was the one
that Herod had renovated.
00:02:43.32\00:02:45.53
It was the temple of the
time of Ezra and Nehemiah.
00:02:45.53\00:02:48.93
That was
destroyed by the Romans,
00:02:48.93\00:02:51.20
and Jesus
foretold that what happen.
00:02:51.20\00:02:52.73
Here's another prophecy.
00:02:52.73\00:02:54.47
Christ said, when the
disciple showed Him the temple,
00:02:54.47\00:02:57.27
"See you not all these things?
00:02:58.31\00:02:59.87
There will not be left
here one stone upon another,
00:03:01.28\00:03:02.78
that will not be thrown down."
00:03:02.78\00:03:04.05
He said, "This
generation will not pass away
00:03:04.05\00:03:07.08
till all these
things be fulfilled.
00:03:07.08\00:03:09.02
Bible generation is 40 years.
00:03:09.02\00:03:12.02
Remember, God
wiped out that generation
00:03:12.02\00:03:13.72
because of their unbelief.
00:03:13.72\00:03:14.76
They had to wander for 40 years.
00:03:14.76\00:03:16.93
Jesus made that
prophecy in 30 AD,
00:03:16.93\00:03:19.93
in 70 AD, the Romans
destroyed the temple.
00:03:19.93\00:03:23.57
There has not been
another earthly temple
00:03:23.57\00:03:26.07
since then to the present day.
00:03:26.07\00:03:28.34
But Jesus was very
zealous about the temple.
00:03:29.60\00:03:32.11
This was His idea.
The plans came from God.
00:03:32.11\00:03:35.48
That's why at the
beginning of His ministry,
00:03:35.48\00:03:37.38
when Jesus was teaching
and He went into the sanctuary,
00:03:37.38\00:03:41.42
He often taught in the temple.
00:03:41.42\00:03:43.49
You remember the story of
the woman caught in adultery,
00:03:43.49\00:03:45.29
John chapter eight, He
was teaching in the temple.
00:03:45.29\00:03:47.69
They brought Him this woman.
00:03:47.69\00:03:49.32
And He was very
zealous of the temple.
00:03:49.32\00:03:51.79
And when He would go
for the various feasts,
00:03:51.79\00:03:54.10
most of Jesus
ministry was up around Galilee,
00:03:54.10\00:03:56.36
but He'd come to
Jerusalem for the Jewish feasts.
00:03:56.36\00:03:59.33
They had turned the
temple into a flea market.
00:03:59.33\00:04:02.77
It had turned into a
bazaar, it was like a circus.
00:04:02.77\00:04:06.61
Because Josephus
tells us 250,000 people
00:04:06.61\00:04:10.48
came to
Jerusalem for the Passover.
00:04:10.48\00:04:13.62
And they'd get there,
because they're traveling,
00:04:13.62\00:04:15.52
they can't bring
their sheep and their goats.
00:04:15.52\00:04:17.52
They would sell them,
and it was a great business.
00:04:17.52\00:04:20.52
They would sell sacrifices.
00:04:20.52\00:04:22.36
And people were buying
oxen and goats and sheep
00:04:22.36\00:04:25.73
and doves at exorbitant prices.
00:04:25.73\00:04:29.73
And then they'd say, "Oh, you
can't buy things in the temple
00:04:29.73\00:04:31.77
with the Roman money.
00:04:31.77\00:04:33.17
That's unclean, 'cause
it's got Caesar's picture on it.
00:04:33.17\00:04:35.97
You have to now
convert it to the temple money.
00:04:35.97\00:04:38.71
Then you can buy it
with the temple money.
00:04:38.71\00:04:41.31
Of course there is a
currency exchange cost."
00:04:41.31\00:04:44.81
And they were
robbing the people.
00:04:44.81\00:04:47.25
And Jesus walked in
and He saw that spectacle.
00:04:47.25\00:04:49.55
He was outraged.
00:04:49.55\00:04:50.89
And this leads us
into our study for tonight,
00:04:50.89\00:04:52.85
which is called
"Cleansing the Sanctuary."
00:04:52.85\00:04:56.32
Jesus did this twice
during His earthly ministry.
00:04:56.32\00:04:59.23
And it also
reminds us of a cleansing
00:04:59.23\00:05:01.46
that happened in
the earthly temple
00:05:01.46\00:05:03.53
and in the heavenly
temple and in the church,
00:05:03.53\00:05:07.97
very important study.
00:05:07.97\00:05:09.54
So, when Christ
walked into the sanctuary,
00:05:09.54\00:05:11.41
and you'll find this
in Matthew, Mark, Luke,
00:05:11.41\00:05:14.81
they all talk about this.
00:05:14.81\00:05:15.84
John talks
about this experience.
00:05:15.84\00:05:17.75
And He saw all this carrying on.
00:05:18.55\00:05:20.35
He said, "Take
these things away!
00:05:20.35\00:05:22.52
Do not make my Father's
house a house of merchandise."
00:05:22.52\00:05:26.42
The Bible says the temple
was to be a house of prayer,
00:05:26.42\00:05:28.86
not just for Jews.
00:05:28.86\00:05:30.33
Solomon said, "For all people."
00:05:30.33\00:05:33.16
It's not just the Jewish God.
00:05:33.16\00:05:34.76
He's the God of
all people. Amen.
00:05:34.76\00:05:37.47
And He said,
"It's supposed to be
00:05:37.47\00:05:38.57
a house of
prayer for all nations,
00:05:38.57\00:05:40.07
and you've turned it
into a den of thieves."
00:05:40.07\00:05:42.67
And Jesus, just by
His word, it tells us
00:05:42.67\00:05:45.54
He made a whip of chords,
00:05:45.54\00:05:47.08
but it doesn't say
He whipped anybody.
00:05:47.08\00:05:48.64
He stood there with that whip
00:05:48.64\00:05:49.84
and they looked at Him as judge
00:05:49.84\00:05:51.18
and they were
overcome with terror.
00:05:51.18\00:05:52.98
It's like they were looking
into the eyes of the almighty
00:05:52.98\00:05:55.65
and everybody
went scampering out.
00:05:55.65\00:05:58.75
And Jesus went by and He
threw over their money tables
00:05:58.75\00:06:01.42
and all the money went
clanging down to the floor.
00:06:01.42\00:06:03.63
All the animals were
kicked out of their cages
00:06:03.63\00:06:06.06
and they went
stampeding out of the sanctuary.
00:06:06.06\00:06:09.06
And in a few minutes, they
were all gone and it was quiet.
00:06:09.06\00:06:12.97
And then it
says, "The children."
00:06:12.97\00:06:14.27
He wasn't mean,
'cause the children came in
00:06:14.27\00:06:16.17
and they sat and listened to Him
00:06:16.17\00:06:17.57
and the children were singing.
00:06:17.57\00:06:19.67
And so, I think people think
Jesus went around the temple
00:06:19.67\00:06:22.21
and He started
beating and whipping people.
00:06:22.21\00:06:23.91
It's not what
happened. He just spoke.
00:06:23.91\00:06:26.41
But He cleansed the sanctuary
00:06:26.41\00:06:27.68
from all the
worldliness that had come in.
00:06:27.68\00:06:30.65
In the Old
Testament, they had a service
00:06:31.72\00:06:33.19
where they cleansed
the sanctuary from the sins
00:06:33.19\00:06:36.02
that had been symbolically
stored there through the year.
00:06:36.02\00:06:38.93
Your body is the
temple of the Holy Spirit.
00:06:38.93\00:06:41.50
God wants to
cleanse that sanctuary.
00:06:41.50\00:06:43.53
Jesus often
healed people, didn't He?
00:06:43.53\00:06:45.53
Said He wants us to
have an abundant life.
00:06:45.53\00:06:47.90
The church, what?
00:06:47.90\00:06:49.37
Know ye not the ye,
plural, are the temple of God.
00:06:49.37\00:06:52.57
Paul said to the church,
00:06:52.57\00:06:53.84
"Whoever defiles that
temple, him will God destroy."
00:06:53.84\00:06:57.45
Tells about this
anti-Christ power
00:06:57.45\00:06:59.08
that sits over the temple
of God, a defiling influence.
00:06:59.08\00:07:03.12
And then the Bible tells us that
00:07:03.12\00:07:05.19
He's got a temple in heaven.
00:07:05.19\00:07:06.65
Christ cleanses them all.
00:07:07.46\00:07:09.99
He is the great temple cleanser.
00:07:09.99\00:07:12.76
So, we've learned last night,
it's in Psalm 77, verse 13,
00:07:12.76\00:07:17.30
"Your way, O God,
is in the sanctuary.
00:07:17.30\00:07:20.87
Who is so great a God
as our God," Psalm 77:13.
00:07:20.87\00:07:25.41
So, we're gonna
take a look at a prophecy
00:07:25.41\00:07:28.01
that was given to
the prophet Daniel,
00:07:28.01\00:07:29.88
that you'll find in
Daniel chapter eight.
00:07:29.88\00:07:32.28
If you have your Bibles,
I invite you to turn there.
00:07:32.28\00:07:35.32
And these are two prophecies
00:07:35.32\00:07:39.09
between Daniel
eight and Daniel nine,
00:07:39.09\00:07:40.72
that ends up being
the longest time prophecy
00:07:40.72\00:07:43.49
through history,
and it talks about
00:07:43.49\00:07:45.46
the cleansing of the sanctuary.
00:07:45.46\00:07:47.66
"In the third year of
the reign of king Belshazzar
00:07:47.66\00:07:50.27
a vision appeared
to me, to me, Daniel,
00:07:50.27\00:07:53.00
after the one that
appeared to me the first time."
00:07:53.00\00:07:55.30
That's in chapter seven.
00:07:55.30\00:07:56.77
"I saw in the vision,
00:07:56.77\00:07:57.87
and so it happened
while I was looking,
00:07:57.87\00:07:59.51
I was in Shushan in the Citadel,
00:07:59.51\00:08:01.54
which is in the
province of Elam.
00:08:01.54\00:08:03.35
And I saw in the vision
that I was by the River Ulai,
00:08:03.35\00:08:07.38
and then I
lifted my eyes and saw,
00:08:07.38\00:08:09.15
and there was
standing beside the river,
00:08:09.15\00:08:10.82
there was a ram
that had two horns
00:08:10.82\00:08:14.06
and the two horns were high,
00:08:14.06\00:08:15.82
and one was
higher than the other.
00:08:15.82\00:08:17.76
And another one came up last.
00:08:17.76\00:08:20.43
And I saw the ram
pushing towards the westward,
00:08:20.43\00:08:22.96
northward, southward, so that
no animal could withstand him
00:08:22.96\00:08:26.20
nor was there any that
could deliver from his hand,
00:08:26.20\00:08:29.20
but he did according to
his will and became great.
00:08:29.20\00:08:31.81
And as I was considering,
suddenly a male goat
00:08:31.81\00:08:35.24
came from the west, across
the surface of the whole earth
00:08:35.24\00:08:38.55
without touching the ground,
00:08:38.55\00:08:40.42
and the goat had a
notable horn between his eyes.
00:08:40.42\00:08:43.15
Then he came to the
ram that had the two horns,
00:08:43.15\00:08:46.05
which I saw
standing beside the river
00:08:46.05\00:08:48.29
and ran at him
with furious power.
00:08:48.29\00:08:50.73
And I saw him
confronting the ram
00:08:50.73\00:08:52.89
and he was moved
with rage against him
00:08:52.89\00:08:55.00
and attacked the ram
and broke his two horns.
00:08:55.00\00:08:57.43
And there was no power
in the ram to withstand him,
00:08:57.43\00:09:00.50
but he cast him down to
the ground and trampled him.
00:09:00.50\00:09:03.51
And there was no one that could
00:09:03.51\00:09:04.71
deliver the ram from his hand.
00:09:04.71\00:09:06.74
Therefore the male
goat grew very great,
00:09:06.74\00:09:09.38
but when he became strong,
the large horn was broken,
00:09:09.38\00:09:13.18
and in its place,
four notable ones came up
00:09:13.18\00:09:16.25
towards the four
winds of heaven."
00:09:16.25\00:09:18.05
Meaning north,
south, east, west.
00:09:18.05\00:09:19.65
"And out of one of the four
horns that came up in this goat
00:09:19.65\00:09:24.23
was a little horn
that grew exceedingly great
00:09:24.23\00:09:27.56
towards the south
and towards the east,
00:09:27.56\00:09:29.16
and towards the glorious land.
00:09:29.16\00:09:30.87
And it grew up
towards the host of heaven,
00:09:30.87\00:09:33.37
and it cast some of the hosts
00:09:33.37\00:09:34.90
and some of the stars to
the ground and trampled them.
00:09:34.90\00:09:37.97
He even exalted himself
00:09:37.97\00:09:39.91
as high as the prince
of the host, that's Christ.
00:09:39.91\00:09:42.98
And by him, the daily
sacrifices were taken away
00:09:42.98\00:09:45.98
and the place of his
sanctuary was cast down.
00:09:45.98\00:09:49.22
Because of transgression, an
army was given over to the horn
00:09:49.22\00:09:52.82
to oppose the daily sacrifice."
00:09:52.82\00:09:55.02
And here's the main thing.
00:09:55.02\00:09:56.46
He cast truth down to the ground
00:09:56.46\00:10:00.66
and he did all
this and he prospered.
00:10:00.66\00:10:03.06
Then I heard the holy one
speaking to the other holy one."
00:10:04.37\00:10:06.70
These angels that are
talking in Daniel's presence.
00:10:06.70\00:10:10.07
"How long will the vision be
concerning the daily sacrifices
00:10:10.07\00:10:13.38
and the
transgression of desolation?"
00:10:13.38\00:10:15.48
You've heard of the
abomination of desolation.
00:10:15.48\00:10:17.85
"The transgression of desolation
00:10:17.85\00:10:19.45
and the giving of both
the sanctuary and the host
00:10:19.45\00:10:22.42
to be trampled underfoot.
00:10:22.42\00:10:24.12
He said unto
me, 'For 2,300 days,
00:10:24.12\00:10:26.96
then shall the
sanctuary be cleansed.'"
00:10:26.96\00:10:28.86
Okay, we read it
and now we're going to
00:10:28.86\00:10:30.83
review what we just read,
but you've got the biblical.
00:10:30.83\00:10:33.53
I wanted you to get
it right from the Bible,
00:10:33.53\00:10:35.60
context for all of this.
00:10:35.60\00:10:37.77
Question number one.
00:10:37.77\00:10:39.17
Daniel had an amazing vision
00:10:39.17\00:10:41.04
in which he saw a
ram with two horns.
00:10:41.04\00:10:43.97
Who does this ram represent?
00:10:43.97\00:10:46.04
Now the good news is,
later in Daniel chapter eight,
00:10:46.04\00:10:49.28
you can see Daniel 8:20, an
angel comes along and he says,
00:10:49.28\00:10:52.61
"I'm gonna help
explain the vision."
00:10:52.61\00:10:54.62
So it's not like we
went to the newspaper
00:10:54.62\00:10:56.85
to find out what it means.
00:10:56.85\00:10:58.09
There's no doubt
about what it means.
00:10:58.09\00:10:59.79
An angel in the same chapter
says, "Here's what it means."
00:10:59.79\00:11:02.96
So that makes it pretty
definite, don't you think?
00:11:02.96\00:11:05.89
The ram that you saw
having the two horns,
00:11:05.89\00:11:09.36
they are the Kings
of Media and Persia.
00:11:09.36\00:11:13.13
Media and the
Persians came up later,
00:11:13.13\00:11:14.80
but Persia became much bigger.
00:11:14.80\00:11:16.74
Most of the history talks
about it as the Persian empire.
00:11:16.74\00:11:20.18
Next question,
Daniel then saw a goat
00:11:21.21\00:11:24.75
with a great
horn between his eyes.
00:11:24.75\00:11:27.52
What does this mean?
00:11:27.52\00:11:29.28
Before I go to the answer,
00:11:29.28\00:11:31.22
it's interesting if
you know your Bible.
00:11:31.22\00:11:32.89
Daniel chapter seven, he
has a vision of four animals.
00:11:32.89\00:11:37.76
You get a lion and a bear and
a leopard and a strange beast.
00:11:37.76\00:11:40.90
They are all, according
to the Jews, unclean animals.
00:11:40.90\00:11:45.00
Now you get to
Daniel chapter eight
00:11:45.00\00:11:47.67
and these are clean animals.
00:11:47.67\00:11:49.10
The Jews were all shepherds.
00:11:49.10\00:11:50.84
A goat, ram, they
were clean animals
00:11:50.84\00:11:52.67
that they used to
have in their flocks.
00:11:52.67\00:11:54.74
When Babylon was in
power, they persecuted the Jews.
00:11:54.74\00:11:59.15
The Persians and the Greeks,
00:11:59.15\00:12:03.25
they allowed them
to, most of the time
00:12:03.25\00:12:04.79
they allowed them to
practice their religion.
00:12:04.79\00:12:07.22
So Daniel saw this goat with
a great horn between his eyes.
00:12:07.22\00:12:10.06
Who is he?
00:12:10.06\00:12:11.13
The male goat is the
kingdom of what? Greece.
00:12:11.13\00:12:15.53
And the large horn
that is between his eyes
00:12:15.53\00:12:17.80
is the first king.
00:12:17.80\00:12:20.10
Now, this is really phenomenal
when you think about it,
00:12:20.10\00:12:22.44
because when Daniel's
making these prophecies,
00:12:22.44\00:12:26.01
the likelihood that
Greece was gonna rule the world,
00:12:27.41\00:12:30.21
would've been unlikely
when Daniel made the prophecy.
00:12:30.21\00:12:33.38
Philip, the king of Macedon,
father of Alexander the Great,
00:12:33.38\00:12:36.95
he wasn't even alive then.
00:12:36.95\00:12:38.89
And so, the
notion that they would,
00:12:38.89\00:12:40.19
at some point rule the
world, they were just tribes
00:12:40.19\00:12:42.89
up in the north of
the Mediterranean there.
00:12:42.89\00:12:45.99
And then later they foretell
00:12:45.99\00:12:47.10
that Rome is
gonna rule the world.
00:12:47.10\00:12:48.90
Rome wasn't much
beyond Romulus and Remus.
00:12:48.90\00:12:51.53
These twin brothers that were
supposedly reared by wolves.
00:12:51.53\00:12:55.04
They were just some
tribes that were primitive.
00:12:55.04\00:12:57.34
The idea that they would
rule the world, you know,
00:12:57.34\00:12:59.51
right now, if I
made a prophecy and said,
00:12:59.51\00:13:00.94
"Yeah, 300 years, Tasmania
is gonna be the world power.
00:13:00.94\00:13:04.48
Nothing against
any Tasmanians here,
00:13:05.55\00:13:07.32
but I mean, who
would predict that?
00:13:07.32\00:13:09.78
And so, you have to
realize, we know that Daniel
00:13:09.78\00:13:13.02
foretold these
things before they happened.
00:13:13.02\00:13:14.92
The very fact he
got the kingdoms right,
00:13:14.92\00:13:16.99
is one reason it's
such a remarkable book.
00:13:16.99\00:13:19.23
(inspiring music)
00:13:19.23\00:13:20.73
Don't go anywhere, friends.
00:13:20.73\00:13:21.96
In just a moment
we're going to return
00:13:21.96\00:13:23.57
for the rest of
today's presentation.
00:13:23.57\00:13:25.57
You know, the
ancient Hebrew sanctuary
00:13:25.57\00:13:27.87
was a fascinating structure,
00:13:27.87\00:13:29.84
filled with symbolism
regarding the coming Messiah
00:13:29.84\00:13:32.71
and the sacrifice
that He would make
00:13:32.71\00:13:34.41
to offer salvation
to all of humanity,
00:13:34.41\00:13:37.21
but just what
were these symbols?
00:13:37.21\00:13:39.11
What exactly do they represent?
00:13:39.11\00:13:40.65
And what important messages
do they have for us today?
00:13:40.65\00:13:44.19
We have a special free resource
00:13:44.19\00:13:45.82

00:14:15.72\00:14:18.09
Well, let's get back
now to today's presentation
00:14:18.09\00:14:20.96
and learn some more amazing
facts from the Word of God.
00:14:20.96\00:14:23.79
And he says, "The
big notable horn."
00:14:25.19\00:14:27.96
You know, you've
probably seen rams and sheep
00:14:27.96\00:14:29.76
fighting before
they butt each other.
00:14:29.76\00:14:31.37
And typically, the one was
the best rack of horns wins.
00:14:31.37\00:14:34.70
But this big notable
horn, that is the first king,
00:14:34.70\00:14:39.04
which is no doubt,
Alexander the Great,
00:14:39.04\00:14:41.61
because he dies early.
00:14:41.61\00:14:42.91
It says, "And when he is
strong, he's suddenly broken.
00:14:42.91\00:14:45.15
In his prime,
Alexander the Great dies."
00:14:45.15\00:14:48.22
Just about the same age
as Jesus, I think he was 32.
00:14:48.22\00:14:51.22
He conquered the world,
00:14:52.05\00:14:53.29
but he became
depressed when a soldier said
00:14:53.29\00:14:55.42
they didn't wanna march any
farther and conquer anymore.
00:14:55.42\00:14:58.46
And he had a
drunken feast in Babylon.
00:14:58.46\00:15:01.30
We don't know if he died
from poisoning, from alcohol,
00:15:01.30\00:15:06.10
many speculate malaria, 'cause
he did not die right away.
00:15:06.10\00:15:09.40
And as he was dying, his young
wife Roxana, a Persian gal,
00:15:09.40\00:15:12.97
she said, "Who will
rule in your place?"
00:15:12.97\00:15:14.74
She was actually
pregnant at the time.
00:15:14.74\00:15:16.81
She was wondering, you know,
is your son's not even born.
00:15:16.81\00:15:19.35
Is he gonna rule?
00:15:19.35\00:15:20.68
And Alexander said,
"The strongest will rule,"
00:15:20.68\00:15:23.45
which is what happened.
00:15:23.45\00:15:24.72
He died, his empire was
divided among his four generals.
00:15:24.72\00:15:29.22
And that's our next answer.
00:15:29.22\00:15:30.56
Says, "And as that
broken horn, horn was broken,
00:15:30.56\00:15:33.56
so that forced
it up in its place.
00:15:33.56\00:15:35.53
Four kingdoms shall
arise out of that nation,
00:15:35.53\00:15:38.20
but not according to his power."
00:15:38.20\00:15:40.00
So you've got the four
divisions of the Greek kingdom,
00:15:40.00\00:15:44.27
and that's Ptolmys, Seleucus,
Cassander, and Lysimachus.
00:15:45.61\00:15:50.41
And so, these four generals
basically carved up the kingdom
00:15:51.75\00:15:55.45
to the four winds,
north, south, east, west.
00:15:55.45\00:15:58.95
And there was a lot of
strife and the Greek influence
00:15:58.95\00:16:03.96
still spread around
the world for years.
00:16:05.09\00:16:07.00
Then a little horn sprouts up.
00:16:07.00\00:16:09.36
What did this
little horn represent?
00:16:09.36\00:16:11.77
Now this little horn
is the antichrist power
00:16:11.77\00:16:14.27
that you find
other places in Daniel.
00:16:14.27\00:16:16.60
He's in Daniel chapter seven.
00:16:16.60\00:16:18.27
He's also found
in Daniel chapter 11.
00:16:18.27\00:16:20.91
And he is the power
that Christ is talking about
00:16:20.91\00:16:23.14
when he talks about the
abomination of desolation.
00:16:23.14\00:16:26.48
This is one that speaks great
words against the Most High,
00:16:26.48\00:16:29.78
wears out the
saints of the Most High.
00:16:29.78\00:16:32.39
And ultimately,
what do you call it?
00:16:32.39\00:16:36.36
He establishes
the mark of the beast
00:16:36.36\00:16:40.03
and begins to persecute
those that will not worship
00:16:40.03\00:16:42.86
the way that they're
commanded to worship.
00:16:42.86\00:16:45.23
This little horn sprout
up from one of the four.
00:16:45.23\00:16:48.04
What does this horn represent?
00:16:48.84\00:16:51.14
Well, we know that in
the one of the northern,
00:16:51.14\00:16:54.68
western empires of Greece,
00:16:54.68\00:16:57.55
it kind of
transitioned power to Rome.
00:16:57.55\00:16:59.65
And you can read
about this in Acts 18.
00:16:59.65\00:17:01.02
What was the ruling
power when Jesus was born?
00:17:01.02\00:17:03.89
"Claudius Caesar commanded
00:17:03.89\00:17:05.82
all the Jews to
depart from Rome."
00:17:05.82\00:17:08.92
Rome were the ones
that imprisoned John
00:17:08.92\00:17:11.76
when he gave the vision.
00:17:11.76\00:17:12.79
He had been
imprisoned by the emperor.
00:17:12.79\00:17:15.16
And so, then you
got the Roman power,
00:17:15.16\00:17:18.07
but the Roman
power does not stay
00:17:18.07\00:17:21.04
purely political pagan power.
00:17:21.04\00:17:24.27
Christianity began to explode
through the Roman empire.
00:17:24.27\00:17:27.88
Tells us that
this little horn power
00:17:27.88\00:17:30.25
goes through a transition.
00:17:30.25\00:17:32.38
"In this horn, were like
the eyes of the eyes of a man,
00:17:32.38\00:17:36.05
and a mouth
speaking pompous words."
00:17:36.05\00:17:39.85
And it says, "He shall be
different from the first ones."
00:17:39.85\00:17:43.22
Just like when you
get down to the legs
00:17:43.22\00:17:45.83
in Daniel chapter
two, the legs are iron,
00:17:45.83\00:17:48.40
but the feet are iron with clay.
00:17:48.40\00:17:50.70
In this vision,
you've got another power,
00:17:50.70\00:17:52.40
but it's not quite the same,
00:17:52.40\00:17:54.54
because it's a commingling
of religion and government.
00:17:54.54\00:17:58.47
It is religious and civil.
00:17:58.47\00:18:00.54
Now, what happened?
00:18:00.54\00:18:01.61
Just giving you a
quick overview of history
00:18:01.61\00:18:02.98
so that everybody knows.
00:18:02.98\00:18:04.25
As Rome was first
established, you know,
00:18:06.38\00:18:10.35
Christianity
began to spread quickly
00:18:10.35\00:18:12.15
through the Roman empire.
00:18:12.15\00:18:13.66
Even in Paul's day, he said that
00:18:13.66\00:18:16.32
"The gospel's gone
into all of the earth."
00:18:16.32\00:18:19.16
But then as the Christians grew,
00:18:19.16\00:18:20.96
they began to be persecuted.
00:18:20.96\00:18:22.40
The devil wanted
to wipe them out.
00:18:22.40\00:18:24.10
Christianity was declared
(speaking in foreign language),
00:18:24.10\00:18:26.37
because there was
so much connection
00:18:27.50\00:18:28.94
between Christians and Jews.
00:18:28.94\00:18:30.21
They both used
the same holy book.
00:18:30.21\00:18:32.31
And when the Jews
rebelled against Rome,
00:18:32.31\00:18:34.81
the Romans said,
"Christians and Jews
00:18:34.81\00:18:36.48
are forbidden religion," and
they were terribly persecuted.
00:18:36.48\00:18:39.65
You've heard about how
Nero fiddled as Rome burned,
00:18:39.65\00:18:42.75
and he blamed the Christians,
00:18:42.75\00:18:44.29
and Christians
were burnt at the stake
00:18:44.29\00:18:46.35
and they were fed in the lions
00:18:46.35\00:18:47.66
and they died in the coliseums,
00:18:47.66\00:18:49.02
were slaughtered by gladiators.
00:18:49.02\00:18:51.16
And the devil hoped to
00:18:51.16\00:18:52.89
wipe out Christianity
through persecution.
00:18:52.89\00:18:55.60
But the more they persecuted
them, the more they grew.
00:18:55.60\00:18:58.73
So then the devil
came up with plan B.
00:18:58.73\00:19:01.77
He said, "If I can't
destroy them from the outside,
00:19:01.77\00:19:04.34
I will destroy
them from the inside.
00:19:04.34\00:19:06.57
I'll legalize it, and
I'll dilute Christianity.
00:19:06.57\00:19:09.81
I'll commingle it with
some of the pagan religions."
00:19:09.81\00:19:12.91
And with the conversion or at
least the pretended conversion
00:19:12.91\00:19:15.62
of Constantine the
Great, the Roman emperor.
00:19:15.62\00:19:17.72
He legalized Christianity.
00:19:17.72\00:19:19.59
His mother, Katherine
claimed to be a Christian.
00:19:19.59\00:19:21.92
He said he was gonna conquer
under the sign of the cross.
00:19:21.92\00:19:25.43
Everybody suddenly
wanted to be a Christian.
00:19:25.43\00:19:27.66
And all the pagans in
Rome, they began to say,
00:19:27.66\00:19:32.40
"Well, you know, we
wanna be Christians."
00:19:32.40\00:19:33.94
And they knew
almost nothing about it.
00:19:33.94\00:19:36.10
Constantine ordered his army
00:19:36.10\00:19:37.61
to march through the
Tiber River and he said,
00:19:37.61\00:19:39.77
"Now you're all
baptized, you're Christians."
00:19:39.77\00:19:41.98
He didn't really understand
the teaching of baptism.
00:19:41.98\00:19:44.61
They didn't know.
00:19:44.61\00:19:45.85
Jesus said, "Go
teach and baptize."
00:19:45.85\00:19:47.28
They weren't
taught. They had no idea.
00:19:47.28\00:19:48.85
They went into
the water, dry pagans,
00:19:48.85\00:19:50.62
and they came up wet pagans.
00:19:50.62\00:19:51.72
They didn't know.
00:19:51.72\00:19:53.32
And a lot of the pagan priests,
00:19:53.32\00:19:54.56
didn't wanna lose their status.
00:19:54.56\00:19:56.06
And they said, "We'll
convert to Christianity."
00:19:56.06\00:19:58.56
And they said, "But what
do we do with all our idols?"
00:19:58.56\00:20:00.86
All over Rome.
00:20:00.86\00:20:02.20
I think one historian said,
"There were more idols in Rome
00:20:02.20\00:20:05.37
and than there were
shingles on the roofs."
00:20:05.37\00:20:07.64
There were idols everywhere.
00:20:07.64\00:20:08.74
You can read about that.
00:20:08.74\00:20:09.54
And Paul writes about it in,
00:20:09.54\00:20:11.64
or Luke writes about
it in the book of Acts.
00:20:11.64\00:20:14.48
So they had idols
of Mercury and Jupiter,
00:20:14.48\00:20:16.71
Apollos and Venus
and Diana of Ephesus.
00:20:16.71\00:20:21.78
And they said, "What
do we do with our idols?"
00:20:22.88\00:20:24.25
They said, "Well, we can
win more people from paganism
00:20:24.25\00:20:26.42
if we give them
Christian names."
00:20:26.42\00:20:28.22
So, this was a big
transition that happened
00:20:28.22\00:20:31.63
that it talks about.
00:20:31.63\00:20:33.56
Question number four.
00:20:33.56\00:20:34.86
Daniel was told
that this little horn
00:20:34.86\00:20:36.77
would defiled the sanctuary.
00:20:36.77\00:20:38.70
How long till it
would be cleansed?
00:20:38.70\00:20:41.40
All right, we
gotta stop for a moment
00:20:41.40\00:20:42.67
and reestablish, for
any that didn't catch it,
00:20:42.67\00:20:45.47
what that sanctuary is.
00:20:45.47\00:20:46.94
In the Old Testament,
00:20:48.41\00:20:49.68
when God told Moses
to build a sanctuary,
00:20:49.68\00:20:51.21
he said, "It's patterned
after the one in heaven."
00:20:51.21\00:20:53.82
So you got the
model, sanctuary on earth,
00:20:53.82\00:20:55.92
the tabernacle, and
you got one in heaven.
00:20:55.92\00:20:57.69
How many is that?
00:20:57.69\00:20:58.89
Two, one in
heaven, one on earth.
00:20:58.89\00:21:00.79
That was destroyed.
00:21:00.79\00:21:02.09
Then there was Solomon's temple.
00:21:02.09\00:21:03.76
Then you've got
the one in heaven.
00:21:04.86\00:21:05.66
How many is that? Two, right.
00:21:05.66\00:21:08.86
Then that was
destroyed by the Babylonians.
00:21:09.93\00:21:11.83
And then you got the temple
of Ezra, Nehemiah, King Herod.
00:21:11.83\00:21:15.30
That's the one Jesus taught in.
00:21:15.30\00:21:17.64
You got one on
earth, one in heaven.
00:21:17.64\00:21:20.18
How many? Two.
00:21:21.28\00:21:23.21
And then that was destroyed,
and now how many are there?
00:21:24.61\00:21:27.48
Two, 'cause Jesus said,
00:21:29.22\00:21:31.42
"Destroy this
temple made with hands
00:21:31.42\00:21:33.22
and I will make one
without hands in three days."
00:21:33.22\00:21:35.42
But He spoke of
His body, the church.
00:21:35.42\00:21:38.19
So, does God still
have a sanctuary on earth?
00:21:38.19\00:21:41.16
Has that sanctuary been defiled
00:21:42.30\00:21:44.17
by the devil
and false teachings?
00:21:44.17\00:21:46.03
Has the truth been
cast to the ground?
00:21:46.03\00:21:48.50
The sanctuary in
heaven, whenever you pray
00:21:48.50\00:21:51.14
and you ask God
to forgive your sins,
00:21:51.14\00:21:52.44
Christ takes your sins,
00:21:52.44\00:21:55.01
and He pleads
them before the Father.
00:21:55.01\00:21:58.18
But there's a time coming
00:21:58.18\00:21:59.31
when there's no
more sin in the universe.
00:21:59.31\00:22:01.88
The sanctuary on
earth, the church,
00:22:01.88\00:22:03.55
and the sanctuary in
heaven are going to be cleansed.
00:22:03.55\00:22:05.99
And there's a
process in that cleansing.
00:22:05.99\00:22:08.86
And He wants to cleanse you.
00:22:08.86\00:22:10.49
See, Jesus cleansed the temple.
00:22:10.49\00:22:12.16
First temple that
needs cleansing is?
00:22:12.16\00:22:14.23
Your body is the
temple of the Holy Spirit,
00:22:14.23\00:22:16.60
and the Lord wants
to cleanse that, amen.
00:22:16.60\00:22:19.07
Let me just give you a
couple more verses on this.
00:22:19.07\00:22:21.84
For those who missed it,
speaking of the beast's power,
00:22:21.84\00:22:24.67
there will come a falling away.
00:22:25.64\00:22:27.84
It's when the truth
is cast to the ground.
00:22:27.84\00:22:29.71
"The man of sin is
revealed, the son of perdition,
00:22:29.71\00:22:33.08
who opposes and exalts himself
00:22:33.08\00:22:34.75
above all that is
called God or worship,
00:22:34.75\00:22:36.99
so that he sits as
God in the temple of God,
00:22:36.99\00:22:39.45
showing himself, he is God."
00:22:39.45\00:22:41.66
And then we just read
in 1 Corinthians 3:17,
00:22:41.66\00:22:44.13
"If any man
defiles the temple of God,
00:22:44.13\00:22:46.26
him will God destroy.
00:22:46.26\00:22:47.76
For the temple of God is
holy, which temple you are."
00:22:47.76\00:22:50.80
How did Jesus feel when
they defiled the temple?
00:22:50.80\00:22:53.03
He chased them
all out, didn't He?
00:22:53.03\00:22:55.37
Ephesians 2:19, "Now therefore,
00:22:55.37\00:22:57.74
you are no more
strangers and foreigners,
00:22:57.74\00:23:00.08
but fellow
citizens with the saints."
00:23:00.08\00:23:01.81
It doesn't matter if
you're a Jew or Gentile.
00:23:01.81\00:23:04.08
"And of the household of God.
00:23:04.08\00:23:05.78
And we are built
on the foundation
00:23:05.78\00:23:07.55
of the apostles and prophets,
00:23:07.55\00:23:09.15
Jesus Christ being
the chief cornerstone,
00:23:09.15\00:23:11.75
in whom the whole
building fitly framed together,
00:23:11.75\00:23:14.86
grows into a holy
temple in the Lord,
00:23:14.86\00:23:17.56
in whom you are builded together
for a habitation of God."
00:23:17.56\00:23:21.23
God not only wants to
dwell in you, your body temple.
00:23:21.23\00:23:24.37
God wants to dwell in His
people, the church temple.
00:23:24.37\00:23:27.04
You still with me?
00:23:27.04\00:23:28.00
First Peter 2:5, "You
also as lively stones,
00:23:29.40\00:23:32.57
living stones, are built
up into a spiritual house,
00:23:32.57\00:23:35.68
a holy priesthood, to
offer spiritual sacrifices
00:23:35.68\00:23:38.81
acceptable to
God by Jesus Christ."
00:23:38.81\00:23:41.72
And then you go
to Revelation three.
00:23:41.72\00:23:43.62
"He who overcomes I
will make him a pillar
00:23:43.62\00:23:46.19
in the temple of my God."
00:23:46.19\00:23:47.79
Now, I don't wanna go
to heaven and be a pillar.
00:23:47.79\00:23:50.46
If you just want, all
day long, you're pillar,
00:23:50.46\00:23:53.60
or is he talking
about you are gonna be part
00:23:53.60\00:23:56.26
of the household of
God in that kingdom?
00:23:56.26\00:23:59.63
So when the antichrist
power defiles the sanctuary
00:23:59.63\00:24:03.61
and when he sits
in the temple of God,
00:24:03.61\00:24:05.31
showing himself that he is God,
00:24:05.31\00:24:07.28
that temple that needs cleansing
00:24:07.28\00:24:08.98
is the temple on
earth, is people.
00:24:10.08\00:24:12.01
And there's a
cleansing that happens
00:24:12.01\00:24:13.38
in the temple in heaven.
00:24:13.38\00:24:14.65
Let's go back to our
vision, Daniel chapter four,
00:24:14.65\00:24:16.79
and this is question four.
00:24:16.79\00:24:18.05
Daniel was told
that this little horn,
00:24:18.05\00:24:21.22
and of course
it's in Daniel eight,
00:24:21.22\00:24:23.12
this little horn would
be filed the sanctuary.
00:24:23.12\00:24:25.63
How long until it
would be cleansed?
00:24:25.63\00:24:27.93
We showed that to you twice now.
00:24:27.93\00:24:29.76
"For 2,300 days, then shall
the sanctuary be cleansed."
00:24:29.76\00:24:34.84
So we got this time period.
00:24:35.77\00:24:37.17
How did Daniel respond
when he saw the little horn
00:24:38.47\00:24:40.88
power persecuting God's
people and obscure the truth?
00:24:40.88\00:24:45.08
At the end of this vision,
when he sees the persecution,
00:24:45.08\00:24:47.52
he sees what the
future of God's people are.
00:24:47.52\00:24:49.78
Daniel's an old
man at this point.
00:24:49.78\00:24:52.15
Daniel 8:27, he
says, "I, Daniel, fainted
00:24:52.15\00:24:55.96
and I was sick for days, and
I was astonished by the vision,
00:24:55.96\00:25:00.53
but no one understood it."
00:25:00.53\00:25:02.03
He knew the part about
Greece and Persia and Rome,
00:25:02.03\00:25:06.00
but he didn't understand
this anti-Christ power,
00:25:06.00\00:25:09.24
this little horn power
that was gonna persecute.
00:25:09.24\00:25:11.87
So, before the angel can finally
00:25:11.87\00:25:15.01
give it all to
Daniel, he faints.
00:25:15.01\00:25:17.61
Which means, the
angel has to come back
00:25:17.61\00:25:19.85
and give him one of
the most important things,
00:25:19.85\00:25:21.48
which is what?
00:25:21.48\00:25:22.82
Starting point for the
time period in the prophecy.
00:25:22.82\00:25:25.19
"At the beginning
of your supplications,"
00:25:26.32\00:25:28.09
go to Daniel chapter nine now.
00:25:28.09\00:25:29.92
I started reading too soon.
00:25:29.92\00:25:31.53
I want you to go to Daniel nine,
00:25:31.53\00:25:33.60
and here is the
second part of this prophecy.
00:25:33.60\00:25:37.43
Daniel fainted, so
the angel comes back
00:25:38.73\00:25:41.40
and Daniel offers
his prayer saying,
00:25:42.54\00:25:44.04
"Lord, how long will Your people
00:25:44.04\00:25:46.11
be captives here in Persia?"
00:25:46.11\00:25:48.31
He was reading the
prophecies of Jeremiah.
00:25:48.31\00:25:50.28
He said, "When are
they gonna go home?
00:25:50.28\00:25:51.68
When is the Messiah gonna come?"
00:25:51.68\00:25:53.45
Is the prayer of Daniel's heart.
00:25:53.45\00:25:55.78
"At the beginning
of your supplications,
00:25:55.78\00:25:57.69
the command went out
and I've come to tell you."
00:25:57.69\00:26:00.09
So the angel comes
to explain this vision
00:26:00.09\00:26:02.26
in Daniel chapter nine,
00:26:02.26\00:26:03.89
and it's going on with the
vision of Daniel chapter eight.
