THERE'S A LOT OF STRESS AND 02:22 TROUBLE IN THIS WORLD AND GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW HOW YOU CAN 02:25 HAVE REAL PEACE AND REST - THAT'S WHY JESUS CAME. 02:29 HE SAYS, 'COME UNTO ME AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST.' WELL, WE'RE 02:32 GOING TO BE DEALING WITH SOME QUESTIONS IN OUR STUDY TONIGHT 02:35 AND OUR PRESENTATION TONIGHT IS DEALING WITH THE LOST DAY OF 02:40 HISTORY. AND HERE'S QUESTION #1 IN OUR PRESENTATION. 02:45 DID GOD MAKE THE SABBATH REST ONLY FOR ISRAELITES? 02:48 >>NO. >>NO. 02:50 THERE'S A NUMBER OF SCRIPTURES THAT BEAR THIS OUT. 02:53 FOR INSTANCE, YOU CAN READ WHERE JESUS SAYS, IN MARK CHAPTER 2, 02:57 VERSE 2, HE SAID, "THE SABBATH WAS MADE FOR MAN." 03:02 NOW HOW DO YOU SPELL JEW? M-A-N? 03:05 (LAUGHTER) NO, MAN MEANS MANKIND - AND HE WENT ON TO SAY, 'NOT 03:09 MAN FOR THE SABBATH' - MEANING, MAN WAS MADE FIRST AND THE 03:13 SABBATH WAS MADE TO BE A BLESSING FOR MAN. 03:16 AND THEN YOU CAN READ IN ISAIAH CHAPTER 56, IT SAYS, 'AND ALSO 03:19 THE SONS OF THE STRANGER THAT JOIN THEMSELVES TO THE LORD TO 03:23 SERVE HIM AND TO LOVE THE NAME OF THE LORD AND TO BE HIS 03:29 SERVANTS, EVERYONE THAT KEEPS THE SABBATH FROM POLLUTING IT' - 03:32 IT'S TALKING ABOUT THE SONS OF THE STRANGER. 03:34 THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT JEWS, THAT JOINED TO THE LORD, 03:39 THAT KEEP THE SABBATH, TAKE HOLD OF MY COVENANT - IT SAYS, "EVEN 03:44 THEM I WILL BRING TO MY HOLY MOUNTAIN AND MAKE THEM JOYFUL IN 03:47 MY HOUSE OF PRAYER. FOR MY HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED 03:50 A HOUSE OF PRAYER FOR ALL NATIONS." 03:53 FOR ONE NATION? >>ALL. 03:55 >>REMEMBER WHEN JESUS DROVE THE MONEY CHANGERS OUT OF THE 03:57 TEMPLE, HE QUOTED FROM THIS VERSE. IT'S FOR EVERYBODY. 04:00 THAT'S WHY IT EVEN SAYS IN THE COMMANDMENT THAT EVERYBODY'S 04:03 SUPPOSED TO REST. ALRIGHT, QUESTION #2: DID THE 04:06 SABBATH LAW EXIST BEFORE MOUNT SINAI? 04:10 NOW SOME PEOPLE SAY, 'WELL, THE SABBATH WAS CREATED FOR THE JEWS 04:12 AND IT'S A SPECIAL COVENANT WITH THE JEWS AND GOD GAVE IT TO - 04:16 AND PEOPLE - SOMETIMES PASTORS WILL SAY, 'THE SABBATH CAME FROM 04:18 MOSES' - LIKE IT WAS HIS IDEA. AND THAT'S NOT AT ALL TRUE. 04:24 LET ME JUST TAKE YOU THROUGH A LITTLE SCENARIO IN THE BIBLE. 04:27 GOD TALKS TO MOSES AT THE BURNING BUSH, RIGHT? 04:29 IT SAYS, 'GO, BRING MY PEOPLE OUT OF EGYPT.' AND HE GOES AND 04:34 HE MEETS WITH THE PHARAOH - HE AND AARON - AND BEFORE HE MEETS 04:39 WITH THE PHARAOH - DID YOU NOTICE THERE, IT SAYS IN EXODUS 04:41 CHAPTER 4:29, 'MOSES AND AARON WENT AND GATHERED ALL THE ELDERS 04:45 OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL TOGETHER. 04:47 HE SAID, 'GOD HAS VISITED US. AND HE HAS A SPECIAL PLAN. 04:51 HE'S GOING TO REDEEM US FROM THIS PLACE. 04:53 BUT WE NEED TO CONSECRATE OURSELVES TO HIM. 04:55 YOU'VE BEEN WORKING SEVEN DAYS A WEEK. 04:57 YOU'RE NOT REMEMBERING THE LORD. YOU'RE STARTING TO 04:58 FOLLOW THE GODS OF EGYPT. YOU NEED TO RETURN TO THE LORD.' 05:01 AND THAT INCLUDED THE SABBATH. HOW DO I KNOW THAT? 05:03 WHEN MOSES AND AARON GO TO THE PHARAOH AND HE SAYS, 'LET MY 05:06 PEOPLE GO THAT THEY MAY SERVE ME.' 05:09 YOU KNOW HOW THE PHARAOH RESPONDS? 05:12 HE SAID, 'BEHOLD, THE PEOPLE OF THE LAND ARE MANY AND YOU MAKE 05:16 THEM REST.' NOW, YOU KNOW WHAT THE WORD THERE IS, IN HEBREW, 05:19 FOR REST? IT SAYS, 'YOU MAKE THEM SHABBAT. 05:23 YOU'RE MAKING THEM KEEP SABBATH. YOU'RE TELLING THEM 05:26 THAT THEY NEED TO REST. I'M NOT GOING TO LET THEM REST. 05:29 MATTER OF FACT, NOW THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE BRICKS 05:30 WITHOUT STRAW. AND YOU KNOW THAT STORY. 05:34 HE INCREASED THEIR WORKLOAD TO PREVENT - WHO DOES MOSES 05:36 REPRESENT? HE'S CHRIST, RIGHT? THE GREAT SAVIOR. 05:39 WHO DOES PHARAOH REPRESENT? >>SATAN. 05:41 >>THE DEVIL. JESUS IS SAYING 'REST.' 05:43 THE DEVIL IS SAYING, 'NO. WORK, WORK, WORK. I'M GOING TO 05:46 INCREASE YOUR WORK SO YOU CAN'T THINK ABOUT GOD.' AND THAT'S 05:48 WHAT HE'S DOING TO THE CHURCH AND TO OUR SOCIETY TODAY. 05:51 >>AMEN. >>PEOPLE HAVE GOT SO MANY THINGS 05:53 AND SO MANY DEVICES TO KEEP US BUSY THAT THERE'S NO TIME TO BE 05:57 STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD. AND IT'S ALL A TRAP. 06:02 PHARAOH SAID, 'I'M NOT GOING TO EVEN GIVE YOU STRAW. 06:04 YOU CAN GO GATHER IT WHERE YOU CAN.' HE SAID, 'GO DOWN NOW AND 06:09 THERE'LL BE NO STRAW GIVEN TO YOU.' 06:11 AND HE INCREASED THEIR WORK LOAD. 06:12 THEN, YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT THE EXODUS - STAY WITH ME - GOD 06:15 WORKS THE TEN PLAGUES AND THEY'RE - PARTS THE RED SEA AND 06:18 THEY COME OUT OF EGYPT AND THEIR SLAVERY. 06:22 BEFORE THEY GET TO MOUNT SINAI, THEY GOT HUNGRY AND GOD SAYS, 06:26 'I'VE GOT A PLAN. I'M GOING TO FEED YOU WITH BREAD 06:28 FROM HEAVEN.' EXODUS 16 - WHAT CHAPTER DID I SAY? 06:31 >>EXODUS 16. >>EXODUS 16 - THAT'S ALL YOU'VE 06:33 GOT TO REMEMBER IS THE NUMBER 16 THERE. 06:35 MOSES SAID, 'EAT TODAY WHAT IS HERE. 06:38 I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU BREAD SIX DAYS A WEEK FROM HEAVEN. 06:41 THERE'LL BE NONE ON THE SEVENTH DAY, WHICH IS THE SABBATH.' HE 06:44 SAID, 'AND THEN, YOU KNOW, I'LL MAKE THE BREAD YOU GATHER ON THE 06:48 SIXTH DAY LAST THROUGH THAT DAY. AND IT SAYS SOME OF THE PEOPLE 06:52 DIDN'T BELIEVE GOD AND THEY WENT OUT LOOKING FOR BREAD ON THE 06:56 SEVENTH DAY OF THE WEEK. AND YOU KNOW WHAT GOD SAID? 06:58 'HOW LONG WILL YOU REFUSE TO KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS AND MY 07:03 LAWS?' THEY HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO MOUNT SINAI YET. 07:05 YOU STILL WITH ME? WHAT IS HE CALLING 07:07 THE SABBATH THEN? A COMMANDMENT AND A LAW. 07:11 AND THIS IS EXODUS CHAPTER 16 - YOU DON'T GET THE TEN 07:14 COMMANDMENTS UNTIL YOU GET TO EXODUS CHAPTER 20. 07:17 SO THE IDEA THAT MOSES DREAMED IT UP - GOD SAID - NO, IT GOES 07:20 ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE BEGINNING - GENESIS CHAPTER 2. 07:23 IT'S MADE FOR MAN - FOR MANKIND. QUESTION #3: HAVE THE TEN 07:27 COMMANDMENTS BEEN CHANGED? ANSWER: NO. 07:31 EVERY WORD OF GOD IS PURE. THE BIBLE SAYS, 'ADD NOT TO HIS 07:35 WORDS LEST HE REPROVE YOU AND YOU BE FOUND A LIAR. 07:39 AND YOU CAN READ IN DANIEL 7:25 - ONE OF THE THINGS THE BEAST 07:44 POWER DOES - IT SAYS, 'HE WILL THINK TO CHANGE TIMES AND LAWS.' 07:48 THAT'S WHY YOU NEED TO KEEP COMING, FRIEND. 07:50 WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING THIS WEEK ABOUT THE BEAST AND THE 07:52 MARK OF THE BEAST AND THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING IN THE LAST 07:55 DAYS. YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS. 07:58 WHICH DAY DID JESUS KEEP? NOW, WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN? 08:00 >>A FOLLOWER OF CHRIST. >>IS A CHRISTIAN A 08:02 FOLLOWER OF CHRISTIANS? >>NO. 08:04 >>IS A CHRISTIAN A FOLLOWER OF CHURCHES? 08:06 >>NO. >>OR IS A CHRISTIAN A 08:08 FOLLOWER OF - >>CHRIST. 08:10 >>CHRIST. SO WHAT'S THE EXAMPLE OF JESUS? 08:12 IF YOU DO WHAT JESUS DOES, YOU'RE SAFE. 08:14 CAN YOU SAY 'AMEN'? >>AMEN. 08:15 >>WHAT DAY DID HE KEEP AS HOLY? >>SATURDAY. 08:18 >>YOU CAN READ IN LUKE CHAPTER 4, VERSE 16, "SO HE CAME TO 08:21 NAZARETH, WHERE HE HAD BEEN BROUGHT UP. 08:23 AND AS HIS CUSTOM WAS" - WHAT'S A CUSTOM? 08:26 SOMETHING YOU DO ONCE OR TWICE IN YOUR LIFE, OR IS IT A REGULAR 08:28 PATTERN? >>PATTERN. 08:30 >>"AND AS HIS CUSTOM WAS, HE WENT INTO THE SYNAGOGUE ON THE 08:32 SABBATH DAY, AND STOOD UP TO READ." 08:35 (THE SCRIPTURES) JESUS, FROM HIS YOUTH, HE WENT TO CHURCH EVERY 08:39 WEEK AND HE READ THE BIBLE AND THIS WAS HIS CUSTOM. 08:43 AND THAT WAS THE PRACTICE IN THE OLD TESTAMENT AND IN THE NEW 08:45 TESTAMENT. WHAT WAS PAUL'S CUSTOM? 08:48 WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT SOME OF THE OTHER GREAT LEADERS IN THE 08:51 BIBLE. PAUL WROTE ALMOST HALF OF THE 08:53 NEW TESTAMENT, SO WHAT WAS HIS PRACTICE? 08:56 YOU CAN READ HERE - IT SAYS IN ACTS CHAPTER 17, VERSE 2, "...AS 08:59 HIS" - WHAT'S THE WORD? 09:01 - HIS CUSTOM WAS - IT SAYS, "HE WENT IN TO THEM, AND FOR THREE 09:05 SABBATHS REASONED WITH THEM FROM THE SCRIPTURES." 09:08 MATTER OF FACT, IF YOU LOOK IN THE BOOK OF ACTS, CHAPTER 9, 09:13 WHEN PAUL BEGINS - BEFORE HE'S CONVERTED - PAUL'S NAME WAS SAUL 09:17 AND HE GOES TO HUNT DOWN CHRISTIANS. 09:20 HOW MANY OF YOU KNEW THAT - IN THE BIBLE? 09:22 DO YOU KNOW WHERE HE GOES TO LOOK FOR THEM? 09:23 >>SYNAGOGUES. >>HE GOES INTO THE 09:25 SYNAGOGUES TO LOOK FOR THEM. WHY? BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THEY 09:27 WERE MEETING. AND THAT WAS OPEN ON SABBATH. 09:31 SO THE EARLY CHRISTIANS, THEY NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT THERE WAS 09:34 ANYTHING OTHER TO DO THAN KEEP THE DAY THAT JESUS KEPT AND THAT 09:37 WAS GIVEN BACK TO MAN IN THE BEGINNING. 09:40 AND HE REASONED WITH THEM IN THE SYNAGOGUE EVERY SABBATH AND 09:44 PERSUADED - NOT JUST JEWS - JEWS AND GREEKS - THE WORD 'GREEK' 09:47 THERE MEANS 'GENTILES' OR NON-JEWS. 09:50 NEXT QUESTION: DID THE APOSTLES ALSO MEET WITH GENTILES? 09:54 SOME PEOPLE SAY, 'WELL, YEAH, THEY WERE GOING TO THE SYNAGOGUE 09:56 BECAUSE THEY WERE TRYING TO CONVERT THE JEWS. 09:57 THE NEW TESTAMENT SAYS IT WAS THEIR PRACTICE - NOT JUST PAUL, 10:03 BUT PETER, JAMES, JOHN - ALL OF THEM, THEY MET WITH JEWS AND 10:07 GENTILES. DID THE APOSTLES JUST SPEAK 10:09 TO GENTILES ON THE SABBATH? ANSWER: IN ACTS CHAPTER 13, 10:13 VERSE 42 IT SAYS, "AND WHEN THE JEWS WENT OUT OF THE SYNAGOGUE, 10:17 THE GENTILES BESOUGHT THAT THESE WORDS MIGHT BE PREACHED 10:20 TO THEM THE NEXT SABBATH." AND WHAT HAPPENED 10:23 AS A RESULT OF THAT? IT SAYS ON THE NEXT SABBATH, THE 10:27 WHOLE CITY GATHERED TOGETHER TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD. 10:30 IT'S NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT JEWS; ALL OF THEM CAME. 10:33 WHEREVER THE CHRISTIANS WENT, THROUGH THE FIRST CENTURIES, 10:37 THEY MET EVERY SABBATH DAY. DID JESUS INTEND FOR HIS PEOPLE 10:41 TO KEEP THE SABBATH AFTER HE DIED FOR THEIR SINS? 10:45 >>YES. >>WELL, YOU LOOK AT THE 10:46 PROPHECIES THAT JESUS GAVE ABOUT THE SECOND COMING AND HE SAYS, 10:49 'PRAY THAT YOUR FLIGHT BE NOT IN THE WINTER NEITHER ON THE' - 10:53 >>SABBATH. >>WHY DID HE SAY THAT? 10:57 LOOKING DOWN IN TIME, CHRIST KNEW - HE SAID, 'PRAY IT'S NOT 10:59 IN THE WINTER BECAUSE IF THEY HAD TO FLEE OUT INTO THE 11:01 WILDERNESS - THERE'S NOT MUCH IN THE FIELDS. 11:04 THERE'S NO HARVEST GOING ON. IT'S GOING TO BE ESPECIALLY COLD 11:07 AND HARD AND, OBVIOUSLY, FLEEING FOR YOUR LIFE - YOU WOULDN'T 11:10 WANT TO BE DOING THAT ON THE SABBATH DAY. AND SO, HE EXPECTED 11:13 HIS PEOPLE TO BE REMEMBERING THIS ON THROUGH TIME. 11:17 DOES THE BIBLE TEACH THAT GOD'S END-TIME PEOPLE WOULD ALSO BE 11:20 KEEPING WHAT WE CALL THE SEVENTH-DAY SABBATH HOLY? 11:25 YOU CAN LOOK HERE IN REVELATION CHAPTER 12, VERSE 17 - IT SAYS, 11:29 "AND THE DRAGON WAS WROTH WITH THE WOMAN, AND HE WENT TO MAKE 11:33 WAR WITH THE REMNANT OF HER SEED," - AND THERE'S TWO 11:35 OUTSTANDING CHARACTERISTICS IN THE LAST DAYS, OF GOD'S PEOPLE - 11:38 REVELATION 12:17 - SHE KEEPS THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD AND HAS THE 11:43 TESTIMONY OF JESUS. THAT'S THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS. 11:47 THAT'S THE OLD TESTAMENT ENDED - MOSES AND ELIJAH - THE LAW AND 11:50 THE PROPHETS - STILL BELIEVES IN THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. 11:53 I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAUGHT SOMETHING THERE IN GENESIS 11:56 CHAPTER 2, THE FIRST VERSE. THE FIRST TIME YOU FIND ANY 11:59 NUMBER MENTIONED THREE TIMES IN THE BIBLE IS SEVEN. 12:03 IT SAYS, 'THE SEVENTH DAY, THE SEVENTH DAY, THE SEVENTH DAY' - 12:05 THERE IN THE BEGINNING OF GENESIS CHAPTER 2. 12:08 AT THE END OF THE BIBLE THERE'S ANOTHER NUMBER THAT STANDS OUT. 12:11 WHAT NUMBER IS THAT? >>6-6-6. 12:13 >>6-6-6. SEVEN IS A NUMBER FOR GOD. 12:17 IT'S CALLED THE PERFECT NUMBER. 12:19 MAN WAS MADE ON THE SIXTH DAY - IT IS A NUMBER FOR MAN. 12:22 YOU'LL NOTICE IT SAYS IN REVELATION CHAPTER 13, SPEAKING 12:25 OF THE MARK OF THE BEAST AND THE NUMBER 6-6-6 - IT SAYS IT IS THE 12:28 NUMBER OF A MAN. SO, IN THE LAST DAYS, YOU HAVE A 12:33 CONFLICT BETWEEN WORSHIPING GOD AND WORSHIPING MAN. 12:37 YOU KNOW WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT, FRIENDS? 12:40 YOU'RE GOING TO FIND, IN THE LAST DAYS, AND I'M GOING TO 12:43 REPEAT THIS A FEW TIMES. THERE'S GOING TO BE A BATTLE 12:47 OVER WHO YOU WORSHIP. RIGHT BACK IN THE BEGINNING, 12:51 WITH CAIN AND ABEL, THEY BOTH CLAIMED TO WORSHIP THE SAME GOD. 12:56 ABEL DID IT THE WAY GOD TOLD HIM - HE BROUGHT A LAMB. 13:00 CAIN MODIFIED THINGS AND HE BROUGHT THE FRUIT OF T GROUND. 13:03 ABEL TRIED TO REASON WITH HIS BROTHER AND SAID, 'YOU NEED TO 13:06 OBEY GOD.' AND HE SAID, 'LOOK, I CAN DO MY OWN THING. 13:08 IT'S A SMALL DETAIL.' GOD ACCEPTED ABEL'S SACRIFICE. 13:12 HE DID NOT ACCEPT CAIN'S SACRIFICE. 13:14 THEY BOTH WERE BROTHERS AND THEY CLAIMED TO WORSHIP THE SAME GOD, 13:18 BUT CAIN KILLED HIS BROTHER. YOU'VE GOT THE ONE - 13:22 THEY'RE BOTH WORSHIPING. THEY'RE BOTH, OSTENSIBLY, 13:24 WORSHIPING THE SAME GOD, BUT THE ONE WHO IS WORSHIPING CORRECTLY 13:29 IS PERSECUTED BY THE ONE WHO COMPROMISES. 13:32 YOU'VE GOT MAN-MADE WORSHIP - AND THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING IN 13:34 REVELATION - THOSE WHO DO NOT WORSHIP THE BEAST THE WAY 13:37 THEY'RE TOLD ARE PERSECUTED AND THEY CAN'T BUY OR SELL AND, 13:41 ULTIMATELY, THERE'S A DEATH PENALTY. 13:43 YOU SEE IT HAPPENING ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE. 13:45 BUT NOW I'M GETTING AHEAD OF MYSELF BECAUSE I'M GOING TO BE 13:47 TALKING MORE ABOUT THAT TOMORROW. 13:49 ALRIGHT, SO - ANOTHER ONE - REVELATION 14:6 - SIMILAR TO 13:54 REVELATION 12:17 - IT SAID, "THEN I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL FLYING 13:57 IN THE MIDST OF HEAVEN, HAVING THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL TO PREACH 14:01 TO THOSE WHO DWELL ON THE EARTH - TO EVERY NATION, TRIBE, 14:05 TONGUE, AND PEOPLE" - THIS IS THE GOSPEL GOING IN THE LAST 14:07 DAYS - THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL - "SAYING WITH A LOUD VOICE, 'FEAR 14:12 GOD AND GIVE GLORY TO HIM, FOR THE HOUR OF HIS JUDGMENT HAS 14:15 COME;'" - THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS JUST BEFORE THE END. 14:19 AND IT SAYS, "WORSHIP HIM WHO MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH, THE SEA 14:26 AND SPRINGS'" - OR THE FOUNTAINS - "'OF WATER.'" DO YOU KNOW, 14:29 THAT'S AN EXACT QUOTE FROM THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT? 14:31 'FOR IN SIX DAYS THE LORD MADE THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH AND THE 14:34 SEA.' IT'S SAYING - IT'S CALLING US, IN REVELATION, BACK TO THE 14:39 WORSHIP OF THE BEGINNING - THE WORSHIP OF THE FIRST BELIEVERS - 14:43 GOD'S ORIGINAL PLAN - THE WORSHIP THAT GOD DESIGNED - THE 14:48 SABBATH TRUTH HAS BEEN LOST SIGHT OF. 14:50 AND THESE ANGELS - AND NOTICE WHAT HAPPENS RIGHT AFTER THAT IN 14:53 REVELATION CHAPTER 14, VERSE 12, IT SAYS, "HERE IS THE PATIENCE 14:56 OF THE SAINTS; HERE ARE THOSE WHO KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD 15:00 AND THE FAITH OF JES." AGAIN, RIGHT AFTER IT TALKS 15:03 ABOUT THE PRINCIPLE OF WORSHIPING THE CREATOR WHO MADE. 15:07 EVERY SABBATH, WHEN IT SAYS, 'REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY TO 15:10 KEEP IT HOLY' IT SAYS, WHY? 15:12 'FOR IN SIX DAYS THE LORD MADE THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH AND THE 15:15 SEA.' IT'S CALLING US BACK TO REMEMBER OUR ORIGIN. 15:18 WHAT RIGHT DOES HE HAVE TO ASK US TO WORSHIP HIM? 15:23 HE OWNS YOU BY CREATION, AND HE OWNS YOU BY REDEMPTION. 15:27 HE OWNS YOU BECAUSE HE MADE YOU AND THEN HE BOUGHT YOU BACK 15:29 AGAIN AFTER WE WERE KIDNAPPED. AND SO, WHEN HE SAYS, 'WORSHIP 15:32 ME' AND HE TELLS US WHEN TO WORSHIP HIM. 15:36 YOU KNOW, I THINK IT'S - IT'S ODD THAT - I JUST WANT YOU TO 15:41 KNOW, FRIENDS, I SHOULD MAKE IT VERY CLEAR RIGHT HERE - I 15:43 BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE GOOD SPIRIT-FILLED GODLY, LOVING 15:48 PEOPLE IN MANY DIFFERENT CHURCHES AND THERE ARE PEOPLE 15:52 WHO MAYBE DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS TRUTH AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE IN 15:55 HEAVEN BECAUSE THEY WALKED IN THE LIGHT THAT THEY HAD. 15:58 BUT GOD WANTS US TO KNOW - THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT THE LIGHT THAT 16:01 GROWS BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER AS THE DAY APPROACHES. 16:05 GOD WANTS US TO KNOW THE TRUTH. 16:07 I'VE PREACHED IN BAPTIST CHURCHES, METHODIST CHURCHES, 16:10 CHURCH OF CHRIST, ASSEMBLY OF GOD, NAZARENE, FOUR SQUARE - I 16:15 CAN'T COUNT - HUNDREDS OF DIFFERENT CHURCHES. AND I KNOW 16:19 THERE ARE GODLY, CHRISTIAN PEOPLE. I'VE GOT FRIENDS FROM 16:21 MANY DIFFERENT PERSUASIONS. I COULD NAME SEVERAL OF THE 16:23 EVANGELICAL LEADERS AND WE KNOW EACH OTHER ON A FIRST-NAME BASIS 16:27 AND - GOOD PEOPLE - LOVE THE LORD. 16:29 HEAVEN IS GOING TO BE FULL OF PEOPLE THAT MAYBE DIDN'T 16:33 UNDERSTAND THE SABBATH TRUTH BUT, YOU KNOW, AS WE GET NEAR 16:36 THE END OF TIME, THE LORD IS CALLING HIS PEOPLE TO RETURN TO 16:40 THE FAITH THAT WAS ONCE DELIVERED TO THE SAINTS. 16:43 HE WANTS TO HAVE HIS PEOPLE COME TOGETHER ON BIBLE RELIGION. 16:47 AND SOME THINGS HAVE BEEN LOST SIGHT OF. 16:50 AND EVERY TRUTH THAT WE LOSE SIGHT OF, WE SUFFER FOR. 16:54 AND THAT'S WHY HE WANTS US TO KNOW THESE THINGS, THAT WE MIGHT 16:56 BE BLESSED. HERE IS THE PATIENCE OF THE SAINTS. 16:59 REVELATION 22:14 - LAST CHAPTER IN THE BIBLE - WHAT DOES IT SAY? 17:02 "BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DO HIS COMMANDMENTS, THAT THEY MIGHT 17:05 HAVE A RIGHT TO THE TREE OF LIFE AND ENTER IN THROUGH THE GATES 17:09 OF THE CITY." BLESSED ARE THOSE. 17:12 WHY AM I SHARING THIS WITH YOU? TO BRING A CURSE? 17:16 OR TO BRING A BLESSING? >>BLESSING. 17:18 >>I WAS DOING A SEMINAR LIKE THIS ONCE SEVERAL YEARS AGO AND 17:22 A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY WERE COMING AND ONE PASTOR WAS 17:25 THERE AND THIS - I COULD SEE HE WAS VISIBLY UPSET BY WHAT I WAS 17:29 SAYING AND - I'VE BEEN SHARING THIS FOR 30 YEARS AND THE MORE I 17:33 READ THE BIBLE, THE MORE CONVINCED I AM IT'S BIBLICAL. 17:35 THAT'S ALL I NEED TO KNOW IS 'AM I FOLLOWING JESUS? 17:37 IS IT BIBLICAL?' AND HE INTERRUPTED THE PROGRAM. 17:40 HE STOOD UP AND SAID, 'BROTHER DOUG,' - HE SAID, 'I JUST CAN'T 17:44 SIT HERE.' - HE SAID, 'YOU'RE PUTTING THESE PEOPLE UNDER A 17:46 BURDEN OF WORKS.' AND I KNEW HIS NAME, I SAID, 'BROTHER, WHY ARE 17:50 YOU SAYING THAT?' HE SAID, 'BECAUSE YOU'RE TELLING 17:51 THEM TO KEEP THE SABBATH AND' - HE SAID - 'YOU'RE PUTTING THEM 17:54 UNDER A BONDAGE OF WORKS.' I SAID, 'WAIT A SECOND, I'M 17:57 TELLING THEM 'REMEMBER THE SABBATH' AND TO REST. 17:58 YOU'RE TELLING THEM 'DON'T REMEMBER.' YOU'RE TELLING THEM 18:00 TO WORK.' - I SA - 'YOU'RE PUTTING THEM UNDER WORKS. 18:02 I'M TELLING THEM TO REST.' (LAUGHTER) HE SAID, 'WE'RE UNDER 18:06 THE NEW COVENANT NOW. WE DON'T NEED TO KEEP THE TEN 18:08 COMMANDMENTS ANYMORE.' I SAID, 'LET ME JUST GET THAT STRAIGHT. 18:11 DO YOU BELIEVE GOD WANTS US TO KEEP THE TEN COMMANDMENTS?' 18:14 AND HE SAID, 'NO.' AND SOME PEOPLE GASPED AND HE HEARD THEM 18:17 - BECAUSE THEY WERE MEMBERS OF HIS CHURCH. 18:20 BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, DON'T KILL, DON'T LIE, DON'T STEAL. 18:23 THAT'S OKAY NOW? AND HE SAID, 'WELL, YES.' AND 18:28 THEN HE REALIZED, 'WELL, THAT WOULD INCLUDE THE SABBATH.' 18:30 AND HE SAID, 'NINE OF THEM.' (LAUGHTER) THIS REALLY HAPPENED. 18:36 AND I SAID, 'BROTHER, SO YOU'RE TELLING ME THE ONE COMMANDMENT 18:39 YOU THINK WE SHOULD FORGET IS THE ONLY ONE THAT BEGINS WITH 18:42 THE WORD 'REMEMBER'? I SAID, 'THAT'S HARD FOR ME TO 18:46 UNDERSTAND.' IT'S HARD FOR ME - 18:48 I'M BEING VERY OPEN AND HONEST WITH YOU, FRIENDS, BECAUSE WHEN 18:51 I FIRST LEARNED THESE THINGS I WAS UPSET. 18:53 WHEN I FIRST CAME TO THE LORD, I WENT TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY - NEVER 18:55 HEARD ABOUT THE SABBATH TRUTH - AND, YOU KNOW, LET'S FACE IT, A 18:59 LOT OF PEOPLE, THEY COME OUT OF CHURCH ON SUNDAY, THEY'RE MAD IF 19:01 THE PREACHER GOES LONG BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO MISS THE 19:03 FOOTBALL GAME AND THERE'S A SALE AT THE MALL AND THEY'VE GOT TO 19:06 MOW THEIR LAWN. >>YES. 19:09 >>EVEN PEOPLE THAT RECOGNIZE SUNDAY DON'T REALLY KEEP IT AS 19:12 THE SABBATH ANYMORE. NOT TOO MANY - THERE ARE SOME. 19:16 AND I COULD GO TO JUST ABOUT ANY CHURCH IN THIS CITY OR AROUND 19:20 NORTH AMERICA AND I COULD PREACH 'HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER' 19:24 AND THEY'D ALL SAY, 'AMEN.' SOME MIGHT BE CONVICTED, BUT THEY'D 19:27 AGREE. AND I COULD SAY, 'DON'T COMMIT 19:30 ADULTERY' AND SEVERAL WOULD BE CONVICTED BUT THEY'D AGREE - 19:32 IT'S IN THE BIBLE - IT'S STILL A TEACHING. 19:34 AND I COULD GO THROUGH ALL OF THE COMMANDMENTS AND THEY'D SAY 19:36 'AMEN' AND THEN I COULD SAY, 'AND REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY. 19:41 KEEP IT HOLY. THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH AND' - 'OH, OLD 19:45 COVENANT! WORKS!' WHAT? I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT. 19:51 AND THIS - THAT'S A RELATIVELY NEW REACTION THAT'S JUST 19:53 HAPPENED IN THE LAST COUPLE OF HUNDRED YEARS. 19:55 ALRIGHT, LET'S KEEP GOING HERE. I WANT TO QUOTE SOMETHING TO YOU 19:59 FROM DWIGHT MOODY TO PROVE WHAT I WAS JUST SAYING. 20:01 DWIGHT MOODY, IN HIS BOOK WEIGHED AND WANTING, P. 46 20:05 HE SAID, "I HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT THIS COMMANDMENT" - 20:08 SPEAKING OF THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT - "IS AS BINDING 20:10 TODAY AS IT EVER WAS. I'VE TALKED WITH MEN WHO SAY IT 20:13 WAS ABROGATED, BUT THEY'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO POINT TO ANY PLACE 20:17 IN THE BIBLE WHERE GOD REPEALED IT. WHEN CHRIST WAS ON EARTH HE 20:20 DID NOTHING TO SET IT ASIDE." MOODY WAS VERY CLEAR: IT'S ONE 20:24 OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS AND IT SHOULD STILL BE KEPT. 20:26 HE JUST THOUGHT IT WAS A DIFFERENT DAY. 20:28 BUT RECENTLY, CHURCHES ARE NOT ONLY SAYING THAT YOU SHOULDN'T 20:32 KEEP THE SABBATH, - THEY'RE SAYING, 'YEAH, SATURDAY'S THE 20:34 SABBATH BUT WE DON'T REALLY NEED TO KEEP A SABBATH ANYMORE.' AND 20:37 WE'RE SUFFERING FROM THAT BAD THEOLOGY, IF YOU DON'T MIND MY 20:40 SAYING SO. WILL ALL OF THE SAVED KEEP 20:43 THE SABBATH IN HEAVEN? >>YES. 20:45 >>IT SAYS THAT IN THE BIBLE. YOU CAN READ IN ISAIAH CHAPTER 20:48 66, VERSE 22, "'FOR AS THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH WHICH 20:52 I WILL MAKE SHALL REMAIN BEFORE ME,' SAYS THE LORD, 'SO SHALL 20:56 YOUR DESCENDANTS AND YOUR NAME REMAIN. AND IT SHALL COME TO 20:59 PASS THAT FROM ONE...SABBATH TO ANOTHER, 21:01 ALL FLESH SHALL COME TO WORSHIP BEFORE ME,'" - 21:05 ALL FLESH - ALL JEWS? >>NO. 21:07 >>IT'S TALKING ABOUT EVERYBODY WILL COME TO WORSHIP BEFORE HIM. 21:10 AND WHO DO YOU THINK THE PREACHER'S GOING TO BE? 21:12 >>JESUS. >>THAT'D BE JESUS. 21:13 NOW, I WANT YOU TO NOTICE THAT IN THE TIME OF ADAM GOD 21:19 ESTABLISHES THE SABBATH IS MADE FOR MAN. THEN YOU'VE 21:22 GOT, DURING THE TIME OF MOSES, WE KNOW THAT THEY KEPT IT THERE. 21:26 THEN, OF COURSE, CHRIST AND THE APOSTLES KEPT THE SABBATH. 21:30 IT SAYS WE'RE GOING TO KEEP IT IN HEAVEN. 21:32 WHY WOULD GOD NOT THINK THAT WE NEED REST NOW AND A SPECIAL 21:37 BLESSED TIME FOR WORSHIP? WHY WOULD HE CHANGE IT? 21:41 WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THAT DAY? IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. 21:47 WHEN I FIRST LEARNED THESE THINGS, YOU KNOW WHAT CONVINCED 21:48 ME ABOUT THE SABBATH TRUTH? I WENT TO - WHEN I FIRST LEARNED 21:54 THIS, I WENT TO SEVERAL OF MY FRIENDS - I WENT TO CHURCH ON 21:56 SUNDAY - I ACTUALLY, WORSHIPED WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT GROUPS. 21:58 I WAS SO HUNGRY I WENT TO CHURCH SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK - PRAYER 22:01 MEETINGS, HOME MEETINGS - I WAS JUST - I WOULD STAY UP ALL NIGHT 22:04 SO I COULD GO TO AN EARLY MORNING HOME MEETING. 22:06 THEY THOUGHT I WAS VERY HOLY BECAUSE I'D BE THERE AT 5 IN THE 22:08 MORNING. I'D JUST BEEN UP ALL NIGHT. (LAUGHTER) OTHERWISE, I 22:12 NEVER WOULD HAVE MADE IT. BUT, I MEAN, I WAS JUST EATING 22:13 UP ALL THE CHRISTIAN TEACHING I COULD GET. 22:16 WHEN I LEARNED ABOUT THE SABBATH I WENT TO MY PASTORS AND I ASKED 22:18 TEN PASTORS, 'WHY DON'T WE KEEP THE SABBATH ANYMORE?' 22:22 AND I GOT ELEVEN DIFFERENT ANSWERS. AND THEY CONTRADICTED 22:25 EACH OTHER. THEY'D SAY THINGS LIKE, 'WELL 22:28 DOUG, WE'RE NOT UNDER THE LAW NOW, WE'RE UNDER GRACE.' AND SO 22:32 I SAID, 'DOES THAT MEAN WE DON'T KEEP THE TEN COMMANDMENTS?' 22:35 AND THEY SAY, 'WELL, WE JUST KEEP THE ONES THAT ARE MENTIONED 22:37 IN THE NEW TESTAMENT AND THE SABBATH'S NOT REPEATED.' AND I 22:41 STUDIED THE BIBLE AND FOUND OUT THAT'S A MYTH. 22:43 THE COMMANDMENT THAT IS NOT REPEATED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT IS 22:46 THE THIRD COMMANDMENT - 'THOU SHALT NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE 22:49 LORD THY GOD IN VAIN FOR THE LORD WILL NOT HOLD HIM GUILTLESS 22:51 THAT TAKETH HIS NAME IN VAIN.' THAT'S NOT MENTIONED IN THE NEW 22:54 TESTAMENT. DOES THAT MEAN WE CAN 22:56 TAKE GOD'S NAME IN VAIN? >>NO. 22:58 >>OF COURSE, IT SAYS IN THE LORD'S PRAYER, 'HALLOWED BY THY 23:00 NAME' - THAT'S CLOSE ENOUGH FOR ME AND - BUT THE SABBATHS 23:05 MENTIONED MANY TIMES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT. 23:07 IT'S LIKE ONE OF THOSE MYTHS THAT YOU REPEAT IT AND PEOPLE - 23:09 SO THAT WAS ONE. THEN SOMEONE SAID, 'WELL, WE 23:12 KEEP SUNDAY NOW IN HONOR OF THE RESURRECTION.' I SAID, 23:14 'THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL THOUGHT. WHERE'S THE SCRIPTURE?' 23:17 'WELL, WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A SCRIPTURE THAT COMMANDS US; WE 23:20 HAVE A LONG-STANDING TRADITION.' AND THEN ANOTHER GUY WAS REALLY 23:23 CREATIVE - HE SAID, 'BACK IN THE DAYS OF JOSHUA THERE WAS THIS 23:26 BATTLE AND JOSHUA PRAYED AND THE SUN STOOD STILL AND SATURDAY 23:31 TURNED INTO SUNDAY. (LAUGHTER) I SAID, 'WELL, THAT'S 23:34 CLEVER BUT THEY STILL KEPT IT ON SATURDAY FOR ANOTHER 1400 YEARS, 23:38 SO THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.' AND THE MORE I ASKED THEN I GOT ALL 23:42 THESE DIFFERENT ANSWERS AND NONE OF THEM AGREED AND THEY'D ALL 23:44 SAY, 'OH, THAT OTHER PASTOR'S WRONG. THIS IS' - I SAID, 23:47 'SOMETHING'S - SOMETHING DOESN'T PASS THE SNIFF TEST ABOUT THIS. 23:52 (LAUGHTER) DOES BREAKING JUST ONE OF GOD'S COMMANDMENTS REALLY 23:55 MATTER? >>YES. 23:56 >>WELL, YOU CAN READ THERE, IN THE BOOK OF JAMES, CHAPTER 2, 24:00 VERSE 10, "FOR WHOEVER WILL KEEP THE WHOLE W AND YET STUMBLE IN 24:04 ONE POINT HE IS GUILTY OF ALL." YOU CAN'T STAND BEFORE THE JUDGE 24:09 AND SAY, 'NOW, YOUR HONOR, I REALIZE I'M GUILTY OF MURDER, 24:11 BUT I WANT YOU TO KNOW I'VE NEVER SHOPLIFTED BEFORE.' 24:13 (LAUGHTER) 'AND I'VE ALWAYS BEEN FAITHFUL TO MY WIFE. 24:18 AND I DON'T USE GOD'S NAME - JUST ONE LITTLE MURDER - 90% - 24:21 HOW'S THAT?' NO, GOD'S NOT GIVING US A DISCOUNT. 24:26 YOU NOTICE THEY'RE NOT CALLED THE TEN SUGGESTIONS? 24:29 (LAUGHTER) OR THE TEN RECOMMENDATIONS? 24:33 JESUS SAID, IN JOHN 14, "IF YOU LOVE ME" - DO WHAT? 24:38 >>KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS. 24:39 >>IT SAYS IF YOU LOVE HIM, GIVE HIM YOUR TIME. 24:42 YOU KNOW, THE MOST PRECIOUS THING YOU'VE GOT IS YOUR TIME. 24:45 MY FATHER WAS A MILLIONAIRE AND HE NEVER HAD ANY TIME FOR HIS 24:51 KIDS BECAUSE HE WAS WORKING ALL THE TIME. 24:53 IT WAS EASIER FOR HIM TO GIVE US MONEY THAN IT WAS TO GIVE US HIS 24:56 TIME. WHAT DOES GOD WANT? DOES HE WANT OUR OFFERINGS 25:00 OR DOES HE WANT OUR HEART? >>OUHEART. 25:01 >>AND, YOU KNOW, THE LORD SAYS, 'IF YOU LOVE ME, DO YOU HAVE ANY 25:05 TIME FOR ME?' OR ARE WE SO BUSY? REMEMBER THE SABBATH 25:11 DAY TO KEEP IT HOLY. HE'S BLESSED THIS DAY AND HE 25:14 WANTS IT TO BE A BLESSING FOR YOU. 25:16 JESUS HAS GIVEN US THE SABBATH TRUTH AS A SIGN OF HIS POWER TO 25:20 CREATE US, TO SANCTIFY US, AND TO RECREATE US. 25:24 AND IT'S GOING TO BE A SPECIAL ISSUE IN THE LAST DAYS, FRIENDS. 25:28 YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED, AS YOU KEEP COMING, TO LEARN THAT THIS 25:31 IS THE LAST DAY OF PROPHECY. THIS IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING 25:34 THAT IS GOING TO BE GREATLY DISPUTED. THE LAW OF GOD. 25:36 NOTICE: THE BOOK OF DANIEL THERE - CHAPTER 3 - THERE'S A 25:41 GOVERNMENT LAW AND THEN THERE'S A LAW THAT SAYS YOU DON'T 25:44 WORSHIP IDOLS. SHADRACH, MESCHACH, AND ABEDNEGO 25:47 HAVE TO DECIDE WHICH GOD THEY'RE GOING TO SERVE: THE LAW 25:50 OF GOD OR THE LAW OF MAN? DANIEL CHAPTER 6, THE KING SAYS, 25:55 'DON'T PRAY TO ANYONE BUT ME FOR 30 DAYS. 25:57 WELL, THE FIRST COMMANDMENT SAYS, 'DON'T HAVE OTHER GODS.' 26:00 DANIEL'S GOT TO DECIDE ' I GOING TO PUT THE LAW OF GOD 26:02 ABOVE THE LAW OF THE GOVERNMENT - THE LAW OF MAN?' 26:05 AND THEN YOU GO TO THE BOOK OF ESTHER. 26:07 THOSE WHO DID NOT BOW DOWN TO HAMAN - HE BUILT A GALLOWS FOR 26:10 THEM. MORDECAI WOULD NOT. HE HAD TO MAKE A DECISION: 'AM I 26:16 GOING TO OBEY THE LAW OF GOD OR THE LAW OF MAN?' 26:18 WHY WOULD THE CHURCH THINK THAT THINGS HAVE CHANGED? 26:22 OUR FAITH IS GOING TO BE TESTED ON THIS AND MANY OTHER FRONTS IN 26:25 THE LAST DAYS. THE BOTTOM LINE IS IF YOU LOVE JESUS, HE SAYS, 26:29 'KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS.' >>AMEN. 26:31 >>STAY TUNED.
