Well we're so happy that
you could join us this evening.
00:00:23.26\00:00:27.19
We believe that these
last few nights have been
00:00:27.22\00:00:31.60
so very information.
00:00:31.63\00:00:32.83
I'm hearing from people
all over the country, in fact,
00:00:32.86\00:00:37.00
about how much this
series is meaning to them.
00:00:37.03\00:00:40.98
In fact, there are some churches
that are opening up the church
00:00:41.01\00:00:45.69
and running this as a
series in their church.
00:00:45.72\00:00:49.52
And one of
those is in Texarkana.
00:00:49.72\00:00:52.67
Texas, Arkansas.
It's actually in Texas.
00:00:52.70\00:00:56.11
But it's part of the
Arkansas/Louisiana Conference.
00:00:56.14\00:00:59.59
So we welcome
especially those of you
00:00:59.62\00:01:02.68
down in Texarkana tonight.
00:01:02.71\00:01:05.00
Because we've been
hearing from them quite often
00:01:05.03\00:01:08.60
here in the last couple of
days about how much they are
00:01:08.63\00:01:13.73
appreciating this
particular series.
00:01:13.76\00:01:16.64
This is a timely series.
00:01:16.74\00:01:20.40
We're living in a
time of history that it is
00:01:20.82\00:01:24.54
so important for us
to know what's going on.
00:01:24.57\00:01:28.94
And you know something?
00:01:28.97\00:01:30.00
You know it from the Bible.
00:01:30.03\00:01:31.64
Not from somebody looking and
thinking that they've come up
00:01:32.16\00:01:35.90
with a conspiracy theory
or something of that nature.
00:01:35.93\00:01:39.67
Or they can prove that
the Illuminati's doing this,
00:01:39.70\00:01:43.26
or the World Bank is doing
that, or something like that.
00:01:43.29\00:01:47.58
And by the way, they may
be doing all of those things.
00:01:47.61\00:01:50.45
But we trust the Word of God.
00:01:51.25\00:01:54.42
And the Word of God
is all you need to know
00:01:55.11\00:01:59.39
that there is a
great conspiracy.
00:01:59.42\00:02:02.41
And it's called
the great controversy.
00:02:02.44\00:02:05.26
You see, the devil
has conspired against God.
00:02:05.67\00:02:09.21
And he will use every
method that he can use
00:02:09.61\00:02:13.50
to try to destroy
the people of God.
00:02:13.80\00:02:17.23
And so, it is so important
that we completely and totally
00:02:17.42\00:02:22.14
lean on the Word
and trust in God's Word.
00:02:22.73\00:02:28.74
And so I have a
lot of confidence in
00:02:28.94\00:02:31.32
Pastor Kenneth Cox.
00:02:31.35\00:02:32.50
I've known him for many years.
00:02:32.53\00:02:33.79
I have been with him
when he was building series
00:02:34.18\00:02:38.12
such as we're looking at now.
00:02:38.32\00:02:40.48
I've seen his method of study.
00:02:40.51\00:02:42.84
And he is an
extremely organized human being.
00:02:43.04\00:02:47.33
When he looks at something,
he has the analytical ability
00:02:47.98\00:02:52.80
that God has given him to
actually take apart a subject
00:02:52.83\00:02:58.24
and look at it very clearly.
00:02:58.27\00:03:00.28
Now if you have ever
watched someone like that
00:03:00.52\00:03:04.89
actually work on a subject,
I want to tell you something.
00:03:05.14\00:03:08.58
It's very, very thrilling to see
and to see how that can happen.
00:03:08.61\00:03:14.53
But tonight, this subject is
one that's very, very important.
00:03:14.56\00:03:19.22
Talking about
the antichrist power,
00:03:19.25\00:03:22.65
the power of the antichrist.
00:03:23.04\00:03:25.04
And before Pastor Cox
comes to lead us in prayer and
00:03:25.53\00:03:29.99
then to lead us
through the study of the Word,
00:03:30.02\00:03:33.72
I'm going to ask
Dona Klein to come.
00:03:34.22\00:03:37.17
Dona has been a part of
the Kenneth Cox evangelistic
00:03:37.66\00:03:41.80
association for many years.
00:03:41.83\00:03:43.82
And tonight, she is
going to be singing for us,
00:03:44.40\00:03:48.25
That's What Jesus Means To Me.
00:03:48.65\00:03:54.03
Dona.
00:03:54.06\00:03:55.43
You can take all my possessions,
00:04:12.65\00:04:18.49
all the things
that men hold dear,
00:04:18.79\00:04:23.93
all the precious gifts
that this old world can hold.
00:04:24.71\00:04:34.40
But the love I found at Calvary
00:04:36.22\00:04:41.99
far exceeds my fondest dreams.
00:04:42.02\00:04:47.58
It's a love that can't be
bought by this world's gold.
00:04:48.14\00:04:57.55
Then you ask me why I love Him,
00:04:59.17\00:05:04.55
why I choose to walk this way.
00:05:05.13\00:05:10.96
Well I find His
service sweeter every day.
00:05:11.42\00:05:20.98
It's the only life worth living,
00:05:22.75\00:05:28.19
He has made my life complete.
00:05:28.22\00:05:33.62
Oh, that's what
Jesus means to me.
00:05:33.65\00:05:43.53
Then each night around sundown
00:05:47.65\00:05:52.10
my children gather round,
00:05:52.39\00:05:57.39
when the clouds of gloom
and doubt would hover low.
00:05:57.81\00:06:07.74
And then they whisper,
"Mom, we really love you,
00:06:09.44\00:06:14.00
and my doubts
just seem so small."
00:06:14.66\00:06:20.12
He has made our
home a heaven here below.
00:06:21.12\00:06:30.07
Then you ask me why I love Him,
00:06:32.26\00:06:37.96
why I choose to walk this way.
00:06:37.99\00:06:43.95
Well I find His
service sweeter every day.
00:06:44.52\00:06:54.48
It's the only life worth living,
00:06:55.84\00:07:01.37
He has made my life complete.
00:07:01.40\00:07:06.56
Oh, that's what
Jesus means to me.
00:07:06.59\00:07:16.49
Yes, that's what
Jesus means to me.
00:07:18.04\00:07:28.03
Father in heaven, we
come to You this evening
00:07:51.69\00:07:55.27
first, Lord,
inviting You into our lives,
00:07:55.30\00:07:59.90
asking that You
will give us insight,
00:08:01.05\00:08:05.40
give us understanding.
00:08:06.33\00:08:07.85
And as we open Your Word,
Lord, may we see and understand
00:08:08.61\00:08:13.05
where we are, what's
happening, what's taking place.
00:08:13.08\00:08:16.71
May we learn to walk
by faith in the light
00:08:17.49\00:08:21.38
of what Your Word reveals.
00:08:22.03\00:08:24.05
Forgive us of where we
have been slow to follow.
00:08:24.35\00:08:28.40
Help us that we, day by
day, may continue to grow
00:08:29.19\00:08:33.31
in knowledge and in
preparation for Your coming.
00:08:33.34\00:08:36.69
For this we pray in
Christ's name, amen.
00:08:37.08\00:08:40.40
Well, good evening.
00:08:45.34\00:08:46.53
I'm very happy to
welcome you again this evening.
00:08:47.19\00:08:50.71
And to those of you who
are joining us by television
00:08:50.74\00:08:54.82
or over the
radio, we welcome you.
00:08:55.08\00:08:58.10
This is a series
called, Anchors Of Truth.
00:08:58.55\00:09:03.11
And this particular series
is dealing with the question
00:09:03.60\00:09:06.38
of the antichrist, the
rise of the antichrist.
00:09:06.41\00:09:10.87
And that's what we're looking
at as we're going through
00:09:10.90\00:09:13.97
the prophecies that talks
about the rise of the antichrist
00:09:14.23\00:09:18.87
and what it's to do
at the present time.
00:09:18.90\00:09:21.25
We've had two
presentations on it.
00:09:21.28\00:09:23.55
We've looked at
Daniel the 7th chapter
00:09:23.58\00:09:26.30
and we've looked at Revelation
the 13th chapter so far.
00:09:26.51\00:09:30.75
Tonight, we're to continue in
the 13th chapter of Revelation
00:09:30.78\00:09:35.39
because it talks about something
that's happening there.
00:09:35.56\00:09:38.58
Now tonight's
presentation is different.
00:09:38.88\00:09:41.16
And it's different in the
fact that in that second part
00:09:41.66\00:09:44.85
of the 13th chapter, it
talks about another power
00:09:44.88\00:09:48.54
that joins with the antichrist.
00:09:48.84\00:09:52.20
And so our
subject tonight really is,
00:09:52.54\00:09:55.20
The Antichrist's Partner.
00:09:55.23\00:09:57.53
How he is
partnering with the antichrist.
00:09:58.03\00:10:02.06
And that's what we're
going to take a look at
00:10:02.09\00:10:03.84
and you're going to see
certain things that take place.
00:10:03.87\00:10:06.77
And what you need to
watch for this evening
00:10:06.80\00:10:09.85
is you need to see how
the Scripture takes them
00:10:09.88\00:10:12.42
and puts them together.
00:10:12.45\00:10:14.18
So we're going to take
a look at it and see what
00:10:14.21\00:10:16.35
the Scripture has to say.
00:10:16.38\00:10:17.71
Because in our
previous presentations,
00:10:17.74\00:10:21.16
when we looked at Daniel 7 we
found that the little horn there
00:10:21.19\00:10:26.52
was the papal power.
00:10:26.72\00:10:28.89
And it gave eight
points of identification.
00:10:29.37\00:10:31.85
It makes that perfectly clear.
00:10:31.88\00:10:33.71
Last night, our last
presentation that we had,
00:10:33.93\00:10:37.24
it was on Revelation 13 and a
beast that came out of the sea.
00:10:37.47\00:10:42.29
And we found that the
beast that came out of the sea
00:10:42.32\00:10:45.66
was also papal Rome.
00:10:45.69\00:10:48.34
God is using just a
different type of symbol
00:10:48.37\00:10:51.49
for the antichrist.
00:10:51.52\00:10:52.88
Both the little horn of Daniel
7 and the beast of Revelation 13
00:10:52.91\00:10:59.16
are the antichrist.
00:10:59.19\00:11:01.39
So we have those two
symbols used for the antichrist.
00:11:01.59\00:11:05.52
But as I mentioned,
the Scripture speaks about
00:11:05.86\00:11:09.10
some that join
hands or come together.
00:11:09.13\00:11:13.28
So we're going to
go to Revelation 16
00:11:13.31\00:11:15.87
and take a look at a text that
begins to give us that insight.
00:11:15.90\00:11:19.80
And it says here...
00:11:19.83\00:11:21.29
Here's three of them and
so here we have the dragon,
00:11:37.01\00:11:40.05
we have the beast,
and the false prophet
00:11:40.65\00:11:44.33
that form a confederacy
to do certain things.
00:11:44.52\00:11:48.94
And the Scripture tells
you what they're going to do.
00:11:48.97\00:11:51.63
It says, "For they
are the spirits of..."
00:11:52.82\00:11:55.56
So it says these three powers
go out and they are demons
00:12:08.39\00:12:15.46
deceiving the world,
gathering them together
00:12:15.49\00:12:18.87
for the battle of Armageddon.
00:12:19.17\00:12:21.57
So we have more
than just the beast.
00:12:21.87\00:12:25.38
We have the dragon and
we have the false prophet.
00:12:25.41\00:12:28.71
Now it tells us
certain things about these.
00:12:31.24\00:12:33.72
Revelation 19 verse 20 says...
00:12:33.75\00:12:36.13
So here we have the
beast and the false prophet
00:12:45.73\00:12:48.77
are captured.
00:12:48.80\00:12:50.09
It says, this false
prophet would work signs
00:12:52.72\00:12:56.10
in the presence of the beast.
00:12:56.13\00:12:58.29
So it says, this false
prophet would perform signs.
00:13:06.40\00:13:11.02
And by those, he
would deceive the people.
00:13:11.05\00:13:15.45
"These two..."
00:13:17.39\00:13:19.96
That means the beast
and the false prophet.
00:13:20.39\00:13:23.35
So those two have been
cast into the lake of fire
00:13:29.12\00:13:32.45
burning with brimstone.
00:13:32.65\00:13:35.34
Alright, now I want to
take you one step farther.
00:13:36.27\00:13:40.34
Because those three frogs came
out of the mouth of the dragon,
00:13:40.37\00:13:45.66
out of the mouth of the beast,
00:13:46.06\00:13:48.65
and out of the mouth
of the false prophet.
00:13:48.68\00:13:51.07
Now we know who the beast is.
00:13:51.33\00:13:53.31
We defined that
previously that the beast was
00:13:53.72\00:13:57.31
that of the papal power.
00:13:57.34\00:13:59.10
Okay.
00:13:59.55\00:14:00.58
But it says here in
Revelation 20 verse 2...
00:14:00.61\00:14:03.42
So now it's
defining very clearly for us
00:14:14.36\00:14:17.64
who the dragon is.
00:14:17.67\00:14:19.49
And it says that the frog came
out of the mouth of the dragon,
00:14:20.28\00:14:23.84
out of the mouth of the beast,
00:14:24.37\00:14:26.44
and out of the mouth
of the false prophet.
00:14:26.47\00:14:28.49
So we find that the dragon
represents that of the devil,
00:14:28.52\00:14:33.00
and the beast represents
that of the papal power.
00:14:33.51\00:14:37.28
So what we've got to do
tonight is we've got to find out
00:14:38.13\00:14:41.08
who is the false
prophet that's involved.
00:14:41.38\00:14:45.55
And this is a
partner of the antichrist.
00:14:46.00\00:14:49.59
Okay, it says,
Revelation 20 verse 10...
00:14:50.60\00:14:54.59
So we find that now
we have all three of them
00:15:06.75\00:15:10.38
who have been cast
into the lake of fire.
00:15:10.41\00:15:13.64
This is right down
at the close of time.
00:15:13.74\00:15:16.44
And we find that the
beast, and the false prophet,
00:15:16.54\00:15:20.18
and the devil are all
cast into the lake of fire.
00:15:20.21\00:15:25.96
That's what the
Scripture simply says.
00:15:26.33\00:15:28.21
Now you understand
that in Bible prophecy
00:15:28.24\00:15:31.88
when it uses "beast," it's
talking about civil powers.
00:15:32.19\00:15:36.06
This is not
talking about individuals.
00:15:36.09\00:15:39.00
This is talking
about a destruction.
00:15:39.56\00:15:42.00
The destruction
of the beast power,
00:15:42.62\00:15:44.55
the destruction
of the false prophet,
00:15:44.58\00:15:46.85
the destruction of the devil.
00:15:46.88\00:15:48.18
This is what it's referring to.
00:15:48.21\00:15:49.81
It's not talking about
a particular individual.
00:15:49.84\00:15:53.75
Because we read about
that in John where it says that
00:15:54.38\00:15:59.02
the antichrist was
coming, was already in the world
00:15:59.05\00:16:02.06
in John's day.
00:16:02.09\00:16:03.26
His coming would be
there at the time of Christ.
00:16:03.46\00:16:06.39
People don't
live that long, folks.
00:16:06.42\00:16:08.72
It represents a
power, a system that's there.
00:16:09.17\00:16:12.68
And that's what
this is talking about.
00:16:12.71\00:16:14.45
Okay, Revelation 13
verse 9 ended by saying...
00:16:14.93\00:16:19.82
Okay, I mentioned that
this is speaking specifically
00:16:24.84\00:16:28.96
to those people in the
Scripture that are wise.
00:16:28.99\00:16:33.35
They read the Word of God,
they study the Word of God,
00:16:34.32\00:16:36.96
and they know what's happening.
00:16:36.99\00:16:39.46
And the Scripture
refers to them as wise.
00:16:39.49\00:16:41.73
And so it says,
if you have an ear,
00:16:41.76\00:16:43.64
hear what the
Word of God has to say.
00:16:43.67\00:16:46.73
And then verse 10 tells us,
"He who leads into captivity..."
00:16:46.76\00:16:51.85
So that's verse 10.
00:17:04.08\00:17:06.49
It comes down and says
this is what has happened.
00:17:06.75\00:17:09.33
Verse 11 reads this
way. Listen carefully.
00:17:10.92\00:17:14.26
Are you getting a picture
of what's happening here?
00:17:25.45\00:17:27.86
Because we find that
first beast, which I refer to as
00:17:28.55\00:17:31.87
the sea beast, which
was taken into captivity.
00:17:31.90\00:17:35.84
It says as it goes
into captivity, John said,
00:17:36.15\00:17:39.14
"I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth."
00:17:39.17\00:17:42.62
And as he talks about
this beast, he describes
00:17:43.42\00:17:46.53
what he is going to do.
00:17:46.56\00:17:49.21
"And he exercised..."
00:17:49.82\00:17:51.75
So it says that
this two-horned beast
00:17:58.42\00:18:02.26
exercised all the authority of
the first beast in his presence.
00:18:03.06\00:18:07.66
"And caused the earth..."
00:18:07.86\00:18:09.37
So this is referring
back to the first beast,
00:18:16.94\00:18:20.66
which we found to
be that of the papacy.
00:18:20.69\00:18:23.02
And so it says this
beast, the two-horned beast...
00:18:23.05\00:18:26.00
Or as Scripture
defines it; the false prophet.
00:18:26.52\00:18:30.06
It says that it is
going to cause all the world
00:18:30.09\00:18:34.71
to worship the first beast.
00:18:35.16\00:18:37.95
So he's going to do some
definite things that will affect
00:18:38.75\00:18:42.32
not just a few
people, but the whole world.
00:18:42.35\00:18:45.83
So it says this false prophet
is going to do great things.
00:18:56.95\00:19:00.39
Signs that are so
mighty that he'll cause fire to
00:19:00.70\00:19:04.32
come down from heaven
in the sight of people.
00:19:04.35\00:19:07.41
He is going to lead them astray.
00:19:07.44\00:19:10.64
"And he deceives those who..."
00:19:11.97\00:19:13.90
I want to just take a
moment to say something.
00:19:22.57\00:19:24.74
Folks, just
because you see something
00:19:26.84\00:19:32.13
doesn't
necessarily make it right.
00:19:33.23\00:19:35.99
I hope you understand that.
00:19:37.59\00:19:39.59
Just because I can see
something doesn't make it right.
00:19:39.62\00:19:44.92
In this day and age, I
can tell you right now,
00:19:46.19\00:19:50.07
in this day and age
you can see a lot of things
00:19:50.10\00:19:53.44
that are not right.
00:19:53.47\00:19:55.55
I mean we have ways, they have
ways today of deceiving people
00:19:56.62\00:20:01.61
that is unbelievable.
00:20:01.64\00:20:03.43
And so, my faith must not
be established on the fact
00:20:03.71\00:20:09.65
of just what I can see.
00:20:09.68\00:20:11.48
It has to be
established on the Word of God.
00:20:13.06\00:20:15.96
I have to have it anchored in
the Word of God and stand there.
00:20:16.45\00:20:20.44
And that's where it must be.
00:20:20.47\00:20:22.27
And so just because this
false prophet can perform a sign
00:20:22.30\00:20:27.89
doesn't necessarily
mean that is of God.
00:20:29.15\00:20:32.74
Just because
somebody can heal somebody
00:20:34.73\00:20:43.02
does not make it of God.
00:20:44.16\00:20:46.43
You have to understand that.
00:20:48.58\00:20:50.41
Just because they
can perform a sign
00:20:51.20\00:20:54.13
does not make it of God.
00:20:54.56\00:20:58.19
I have to come back
and I have to make sure
00:20:58.88\00:21:02.51
that it squares
with the Word of God.
00:21:02.54\00:21:06.48
If it doesn't square
up with the Word of God...
00:21:06.82\00:21:09.24
No.
00:21:10.11\00:21:11.18
That is my only safety.
00:21:11.58\00:21:13.02
That's the only foundation
I have is the Word of God.
00:21:13.05\00:21:17.46
And if the Word of God
says this is the way it is,
00:21:18.07\00:21:22.01
then that's
where I build my faith.
00:21:22.04\00:21:24.08
And so I'm trying to help
you, don't be deceived by this.
00:21:24.94\00:21:29.56
"Telling those who
dwell on the earth..."
00:21:30.61\00:21:32.72
Now it says he's going to
make an image to the beast.
00:21:40.63\00:21:43.09
Well, we know who the beast is.
00:21:45.95\00:21:47.84
We don't have to guess on that.
00:21:48.78\00:21:51.26
The Scripture
is perfectly clear.
00:21:51.29\00:21:52.56
We know who the beast is.
00:21:52.59\00:21:54.01
So if I'm going to
make an image to the beast,
00:21:54.85\00:21:58.00
what does that mean?
00:21:58.47\00:21:59.81
It means that I
have to make something
00:22:02.20\00:22:04.21
that looks like the beast.
00:22:05.14\00:22:07.71
I can't make an image
of a dog look like a cat.
00:22:08.83\00:22:13.23
It has to look like that.
00:22:14.31\00:22:18.20
And if I make an
image to the beast,
00:22:18.23\00:22:20.22
then it has to
be like the beast.
00:22:20.60\00:22:22.84
And the beast was a
coalition of two things.
00:22:23.50\00:22:28.73
It was a civil
power and a church power
00:22:28.76\00:22:32.35
that came together
to form the papal power.
00:22:32.65\00:22:35.84
And so when it
says, this false prophet
00:22:36.53\00:22:38.91
is going to make an
image to the beast, that means
00:22:39.21\00:22:41.82
he's going to bring
certain things together.
00:22:41.85\00:22:44.82
And he was granted
power to give what?
00:22:46.59\00:22:49.73
If he's given power to
give breath to the image
00:22:54.37\00:22:56.54
of the beast,
what does that mean?
00:22:56.57\00:22:58.57
That means he was given
power to make it come to life.
00:23:00.62\00:23:05.05
That's what it
says, come to life.
00:23:05.96\00:23:08.02
You remember the story
of Pinocchio well enough
00:23:08.61\00:23:10.74
to apply that.
00:23:10.77\00:23:12.61
Okay?
00:23:12.75\00:23:13.78
It came to life. Okay.
00:23:13.81\00:23:16.45
But not only does it
come to life, but he takes it
00:23:16.48\00:23:19.05
a step farther and says...
00:23:19.08\00:23:21.00
Anytime you find a
power; a civil power,
00:23:33.16\00:23:38.54
a power in the Scripture,
and it says that it speaks
00:23:38.57\00:23:44.54
and it causes, that word
"speak" means legislation.
00:23:45.31\00:23:50.30
And when it says
"cause," that means enforcement.
00:23:52.39\00:23:56.69
So it's saying that this
false prophet is going to
00:23:57.94\00:24:04.05
enforce certain
things, certain laws.
00:24:04.08\00:24:09.35
And they will be
enforced upon the people,
00:24:09.38\00:24:12.00
and the people
have to follow that.
00:24:12.03\00:24:14.89
Or else they're
going to be what?
00:24:15.56\00:24:17.34
Killed.
00:24:17.87\00:24:19.17
You cannot...
00:24:19.76\00:24:21.59
You cannot go contrary to
the laws of a civil government
00:24:24.59\00:24:33.05
and not suffer the consequences.
00:24:33.77\00:24:36.27
Should I say that again?
00:24:39.40\00:24:40.67
You cannot, folks, go
contrary to the laws of a
00:24:41.62\00:24:47.52
civil government and
not suffer the consequences.
00:24:47.55\00:24:52.55
Therefore, if the laws
of the civil government
00:24:53.83\00:24:58.38
go crosswise to what I believe,
then what am I going to do?
00:24:59.71\00:25:07.76
I'm going to
suffer the consequences.
00:25:12.28\00:25:14.51
That's why is says
they should be killed.
00:25:16.31\00:25:18.15
You need to weigh
that in your heart.
00:25:20.51\00:25:23.14
You need to say,
"Well, where do I stand?"
00:25:24.36\00:25:26.92
How much do you believe in God?
00:25:27.73\00:25:30.08
How much do you believe in Him?
00:25:32.16\00:25:33.30
Did you accept Him,
when you accepted Christ,
00:25:33.33\00:25:36.40
did you accept Him for
life and also for death?
00:25:36.43\00:25:39.46
Those are things that I
have to weigh, I have to do.
00:25:42.70\00:25:46.63
I have to accept it.
00:25:46.82\00:25:47.85
I can remember
talking to a lady about this.
00:25:47.88\00:25:50.20
Which she was in that position.
00:25:50.48\00:25:52.76
I asked her, I said, "You
know, when you accepted Him,
00:25:53.91\00:25:57.27
did you accept Him
for life or did you also
00:25:57.30\00:26:00.60
accept Him for death?"
00:26:00.63\00:26:01.87
And she thought about it for
a while and finally she said,
00:26:03.86\00:26:06.23
"For both."
00:26:06.97\00:26:08.11
And she was
faithful to the Lord.
00:26:09.53\00:26:13.06
And by the way, don't
misunderstand me here.
00:26:13.09\00:26:15.70
God will honor your faith.
00:26:16.45\00:26:18.98
God will always
honor your faith.
00:26:20.33\00:26:22.41
If you step out in
faith honoring what the
00:26:23.14\00:26:26.93
Word of God says,
He will honor that.
00:26:26.96\00:26:30.27
But that does not
mean, that does not mean
00:26:30.99\00:26:35.03
that you may not
face the consequences.
00:26:35.06\00:26:37.89
You understand that?
00:26:39.56\00:26:40.85
Because when God
said, "Okay, honor Me.
00:26:41.83\00:26:46.18
Serve Me."
00:26:47.10\00:26:48.34
And the civil law said,
"Okay, you can't pray to any God
00:26:49.00\00:26:55.40
for 30 days or you'll be
thrown in the lion's den."
00:26:56.23\00:27:00.53
Okay, that's civil law.
00:27:02.37\00:27:04.69
If you break it, you're
going to pay the consequences.
00:27:05.02\00:27:07.95
And Daniel said, "Sorry, that
goes contrary to my belief."
00:27:07.98\00:27:14.74
Therefore, he knelt and
prayed three times every day.
00:27:17.02\00:27:20.82
And what happened to him?
00:27:21.92\00:27:23.40
He paid the consequences.
00:27:24.42\00:27:25.84
They threw him
in the lion's den.
00:27:25.87\00:27:28.03
See, God didn't
run in there and say,
00:27:30.83\00:27:33.37
"Okay, you're not going to
throw Daniel in the lion's den."
00:27:33.40\00:27:36.43
No, he had him
thrown in the lion's den.
00:27:36.46\00:27:38.50
But He took care of
him, He honored him.
00:27:40.89\00:27:42.92
By the way, in history
and all, do you know why
00:27:44.47\00:27:50.55
the lions didn't eat Daniel?
00:27:50.58\00:27:52.83
Huh?
00:27:54.28\00:27:55.31
Do you?
00:27:56.72\00:27:57.75
Well there's this
saying in history, it's because
00:27:58.03\00:28:00.66
Darius fed all of them before
Daniel was thrown in there.
00:28:00.95\00:28:05.59
So they weren't hungry.
00:28:05.62\00:28:06.78
That's what the history says.
00:28:08.24\00:28:09.66
Do you understand?
00:28:11.62\00:28:12.76
So they said, "Okay," God
said, "you want to see that?
00:28:14.21\00:28:17.36
That's what they
want to believe?"
00:28:17.39\00:28:18.71
Then it says, "Okay," Darius
said, "thrown all these people
00:28:18.91\00:28:22.31
that made that accusation
of Daniel in the lion's den."
00:28:22.34\00:28:25.91
And the lions devoured
them before they hit the ground.
00:28:26.75\00:28:30.38
No, that wasn't the case at all.
00:28:30.90\00:28:32.73
You better believe
those lions were hungry.
00:28:32.76\00:28:34.99
No question about
it, they were hungry.
00:28:35.02\00:28:37.44
Okay, so I must
worship the Lord.
00:28:37.65\00:28:41.60
I must follow
Him and do His will.
00:28:41.63\00:28:45.00
"And he caused all..."
00:28:46.20\00:28:48.07
Ask yourself right now,
"Do I fit in this category?"
00:28:49.25\00:28:53.73
That's what this false
prophet is going to do.
00:29:04.68\00:29:06.86
Receive a mark on their
right hand or on their forehead.
00:29:08.45\00:29:12.86
They had to have all
those things in order to be able
00:29:25.38\00:29:28.66
to buy or to sell.
00:29:28.69\00:29:32.02
This is what this
false prophet is going to do.
00:29:32.85\00:29:39.54
"Here is wisdom.
00:29:40.60\00:29:41.99
Let him who has
understanding calculate..."
00:29:43.40\00:29:46.97
Now when you take a look at
this, there is only one power,
00:30:01.10\00:30:08.01
one power on the
entire face of the earth
00:30:08.76\00:30:11.47
that fits this time sequence.
00:30:11.96\00:30:14.37
No one else.
00:30:14.40\00:30:16.23
I want you to look at
the time sequence tonight,
00:30:16.89\00:30:18.98
because that
becomes very important.
00:30:19.01\00:30:21.16
Revelation 13 says...
00:30:22.25\00:30:24.01
The papal power had
led people into captivity,
00:30:32.98\00:30:37.16
so it went into captivity.
00:30:37.19\00:30:40.27
Okay, it had killed
with the sword, so it was
00:30:41.25\00:30:43.31
killed with the sword.
00:30:43.34\00:30:44.85
That's what the
Scripture is saying.
00:30:45.03\00:30:46.53
So immediately then we
find that something took place.
00:30:46.94\00:30:51.22
It went into captivity in
1798 when Napoleon's general,
00:30:51.25\00:30:57.54
Berthier, made
his way into Rome,
00:30:57.57\00:31:00.07
made his entrance into Rome...
00:31:00.10\00:31:01.66
Just as the
Scripture said; in 1798.
00:31:05.41\00:31:10.06
Then he says, "I saw
another beast coming up
00:31:10.41\00:31:14.11
out of the earth..."
00:31:14.14\00:31:15.45
So he sees this other beast
coming up out of the earth;
00:31:21.31\00:31:24.45
which is the two-horned
beast, or the false prophet.
00:31:24.48\00:31:28.38
So we find that as this
first beast of Revelation 13
00:31:29.46\00:31:33.98
goes down, the two-horned beast,
the false prophet, is coming up.
00:31:34.98\00:31:40.20
That time sequence is important.
00:31:41.55\00:31:44.10
One of the great theologians,
one of the great preachers
00:31:45.39\00:31:48.21
of the past, was a man
by the name of John Wesley.
00:31:48.24\00:31:51.67
John Wesley, as he
studied the book of Revelation,
00:31:52.97\00:31:56.22
he would just make
notes and file them away.
00:31:56.25\00:31:59.81
And when he died, they found
all these notes that John Wesley
00:32:00.45\00:32:03.56
had made on the
book of Revelation.
00:32:03.59\00:32:05.21
And they published
them in a book called,
00:32:05.51\00:32:07.32
Notes On Revelation.
00:32:07.35\00:32:08.90
And I want you to
notice what he had to say,
00:32:09.20\00:32:11.98
because this is what
John Wesley says about
00:32:12.01\00:32:14.75
this two-horned beast.
00:32:14.78\00:32:16.79
The 42 months of the
first beast came to an end when?
00:32:33.81\00:32:37.33
In 1798.
00:32:38.25\00:32:39.75
Did you notice when
John Wesley wrote this?
00:32:40.18\00:32:42.53
In 1752.
00:32:43.68\00:32:45.95
See, he was right on target.
00:32:45.98\00:32:47.52
He said that two-horned
beast can't be far off,
00:32:47.96\00:32:52.36
for he is to appear at
the end of the 42 months
00:32:52.39\00:32:56.46
of the first beast.
00:32:56.49\00:32:57.56
And he was right on time.
00:32:57.59\00:33:00.41
Watch the sequence.
00:33:01.16\00:33:02.60
Because this
two-horned beast is to rise.
00:33:03.49\00:33:06.11
Remember, our
forefathers developed problems
00:33:06.40\00:33:11.05
with England and they
came over here to this country.
00:33:11.08\00:33:16.97
And they landed on the
shores of the country in when?
00:33:17.61\00:33:21.15
Do you remember?
00:33:21.18\00:33:22.21
At Plymouth
Rock, 1620 they landed.
00:33:22.58\00:33:28.02
They set up their colonies.
00:33:28.66\00:33:30.75
The colonies began to grow.
00:33:30.95\00:33:34.09
And as they grew,
conflict developed between the
00:33:34.29\00:33:38.86
colonists and England.
00:33:38.89\00:33:41.09
And finally, they
decided they wanted to be an
00:33:42.32\00:33:45.13
independent nation.
00:33:45.16\00:33:46.97
And you remember?
00:33:48.70\00:33:49.75
Watch the dates.
00:33:50.41\00:33:51.74
The signed the Declaration
of Independence in 1776,
00:33:52.43\00:33:59.27
the Bill of Rights in 1789.
00:34:02.24\00:34:06.99
The Bill of Rights
was adopted in 1791.
00:34:07.88\00:34:12.14
And the papal power
went into captivity in 1798.
00:34:12.34\00:34:19.02
So you can see just
as one is going down,
00:34:19.05\00:34:21.68
the other is coming up.
00:34:21.71\00:34:23.34
It's the only power in
all of history that fits
00:34:23.37\00:34:27.13
that time sequence.
00:34:27.16\00:34:28.68
It says, "I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth."
00:34:29.88\00:34:32.78
All the other beasts
came up out of the sea.
00:34:32.81\00:34:35.75
"Then he said to me,
'The waters which you saw...'"
00:34:36.45\00:34:38.58
Water represented people.
00:34:42.99\00:34:44.73
That meant that this country
wasn't going to be the result
00:34:44.76\00:34:48.53
of a great mass of
people turning or overthrown
00:34:48.56\00:34:52.23
by another nation.
00:34:52.26\00:34:53.58
Our country came into
being just exactly as it says
00:34:53.61\00:34:59.10
on the Statue of Liberty.
00:34:59.40\00:35:01.15
This is the way the
country was settled.
00:35:20.20\00:35:22.05
Our forefathers
and all moved to here.
00:35:22.08\00:35:24.67
They were coming
from other countries.
00:35:24.70\00:35:26.98
They moved into the country
and it was settled by them.
00:35:27.01\00:35:30.54
So it rose up out of the earth.
00:35:30.57\00:35:33.42
But it had two
horns like a lamb.
00:35:33.71\00:35:35.93
Horns on a beast represent
how it is governed or ruled.
00:35:39.17\00:35:45.39
Some of the horns
have crowns on them,
00:35:45.42\00:35:48.19
meaning that it would
be ruled by a monarch.
00:35:48.22\00:35:51.01
Others don't
have anything on them.
00:35:51.77\00:35:54.29
This particular
beast has two horns.
00:35:54.51\00:35:58.18
Those two horns represent
the basis upon which this
00:35:58.21\00:36:03.63
government was established.
00:36:03.66\00:36:05.26
If you go back in history
and read it, it was basically
00:36:06.77\00:36:08.94
established on two principles.
00:36:08.97\00:36:10.65
And as you go
back and read history,
00:36:11.40\00:36:13.59
you can read
about those principles.
00:36:13.62\00:36:15.35
Josiah Quincy.
00:36:15.69\00:36:17.05
If you don't know who
he is, he was one of the
00:36:17.08\00:36:19.44
men back in the
formation of this country.
00:36:19.47\00:36:22.36
If you go to Boston, you
can still go to Quincy's Market.
00:36:22.39\00:36:26.16
And it says...
00:36:27.40\00:36:28.44
"In defense of our civil..."
00:36:39.84\00:36:41.51
And you see they established
this country on the fact
00:36:41.91\00:36:44.78
that they wanted government
by the people, for the people,
00:36:44.81\00:36:47.46
and through the people.
00:36:47.49\00:36:48.62
And they established,
the other principle was
00:36:48.65\00:36:50.66
that they would give to
every man, woman, and child
00:36:50.69\00:36:54.17
the right to
worship as they pleased.
00:36:54.20\00:36:57.01
They said, "We want a
country without a pope."
00:36:57.40\00:37:00.86
That's what they said.
00:37:00.89\00:37:01.94
Patrick Henry, you remember him?
00:37:11.40\00:37:13.06
He said...
00:37:14.14\00:37:15.17
So this country was
established as a young country.
00:37:44.87\00:37:50.56
That's why it speaks
of two horns like a lamb.
00:37:50.59\00:37:53.68
It mean that it was young.
00:37:53.71\00:37:55.23
But it would be established
on Christian principles,
00:37:55.26\00:37:58.70
because it said it
had two horns like a lamb.
00:37:58.73\00:38:01.62
And in the Bible,
the lamb represents what?
00:38:01.83\00:38:04.90
Jesus.
00:38:05.64\00:38:06.69
"But with the precious
blood of Christ, as of a..."
00:38:06.95\00:38:10.33
"...lamb without
blemish and without spot."
00:38:10.78\00:38:13.30
"Saying with a loud
voice, 'Worthy is the lamb
00:38:13.66\00:38:15.94
who was slain..."
00:38:15.97\00:38:17.04
So this country was established
on Christian principles.
00:38:21.31\00:38:24.26
And we find, our forefathers
built this country on that.
00:38:24.29\00:38:28.69
When the
Revolutionary War was over
00:38:29.94\00:38:32.32
and they called a
constitutional congress,
00:38:33.92\00:38:36.99
they sent delegates in
from all the different colonies.
00:38:38.63\00:38:41.76
But that war
had so divided them.
00:38:42.77\00:38:45.61
In fact, there was
no communication between
00:38:46.03\00:38:48.37
the different colonies.
00:38:48.50\00:38:49.80
It had divided them so bad
that many of those colonies
00:38:49.83\00:38:54.50
felt like they were the only
ones that had supported the war.
00:38:54.53\00:38:58.09
And they felt nobody
else had done anything.
00:38:58.63\00:39:00.80
So there was a
lot of hard feelings.
00:39:01.02\00:39:03.32
And so when they went to
the constitutional congress,
00:39:03.35\00:39:08.03
a great big argument
broke out between them
00:39:08.32\00:39:11.88
because they felt the
others hadn't done their part.
00:39:12.19\00:39:14.78
In fact, the delegation
from New York went home.
00:39:15.14\00:39:18.59
And it looked like the
constitutional congress
00:39:18.79\00:39:21.06
was going to fall apart
when Benjamin Franklin stood up
00:39:21.09\00:39:26.19
and he said this...
00:39:26.22\00:39:27.68
And by the way, with that speech
he was able to get them focused
00:40:09.65\00:40:14.22
and they went ahead
and sat down and they wrote
00:40:14.33\00:40:17.85
the Constitution of the
United States of America.
00:40:18.39\00:40:21.74
Now, even George Washington,
at his inaugural address,
00:40:22.64\00:40:28.27
had this to say...
00:40:28.98\00:40:30.26
Boy, if we heard
things like that today.
00:41:09.30\00:41:11.66
And so, I'm just
trying to get across that our
00:41:36.64\00:41:39.00
forefathers believed in God.
00:41:39.03\00:41:40.53
They were men, God
fearing men and women.
00:41:40.56\00:41:43.51
And this country was
established on those principles.
00:41:43.54\00:41:46.66
I wish that the
Scripture stopped there.
00:41:46.69\00:41:49.83
I wish that it did.
00:41:51.43\00:41:52.64
But unfortunately, it doesn't.
00:41:53.41\00:41:55.12
Because it says this two-horned
beast will speak as a dragon.
00:41:56.09\00:42:01.73
Now if the lamb
represents Jesus,
00:42:02.88\00:42:05.58
the dragon represents who?
00:42:06.24\00:42:08.26
The devil.
00:42:08.97\00:42:10.00
So it says he's going do things.
00:42:10.99\00:42:13.94
That power had
gone contrary to God.
00:42:28.19\00:42:31.67
And it says that this
two-horned beast, which is the
00:42:31.70\00:42:35.36
false prophet, he is going
to go contrary to the Lord also.
00:42:35.39\00:42:40.25
And not only is he going
to go contrary to the Lord,
00:42:40.63\00:42:42.98
but he's going
to put teeth in it.
00:42:43.01\00:42:45.44
He's going to pass laws.
00:42:46.42\00:42:48.15
Now I want you to listen very
carefully to that statement.
00:42:58.24\00:43:00.76
He performs what?
00:43:01.30\00:43:02.83
"...great signs so that
he even makes fire come down
00:43:03.77\00:43:08.31
from heaven on
earth in the sight of men.
00:43:08.34\00:43:10.65
And he deceives those
who dwell on the earth
00:43:11.05\00:43:14.39
by those signs
which he was granted to do
00:43:14.80\00:43:17.92
in the sight of the
beast, telling those who dwell
00:43:17.95\00:43:20.91
on the earth to make an
image to the beast who was
00:43:20.94\00:43:23.87
wounded by the sword and lived."
00:43:23.90\00:43:27.04
Okay, now we're going
to put things together.
00:43:27.07\00:43:29.70
Now are you
seeing what I'm doing?
00:43:44.10\00:43:45.91
Because the Scripture
here is tying the false prophet
00:43:46.17\00:43:50.14
to this two-horned beast.
00:43:50.17\00:43:52.13
That's what it just did.
00:43:53.16\00:43:54.53
Because he worked signs
to deceive the people...
00:43:55.02\00:43:58.59
So the Scripture takes and
ties, absolutely, that this
00:44:04.17\00:44:08.66
two-horned
beast of Revelation 13
00:44:08.69\00:44:12.28
is the false prophet.
00:44:12.31\00:44:14.76
Which history and Scripture
tells us is that of the
00:44:15.07\00:44:18.80
United States of America.
00:44:18.83\00:44:20.77
And so it says, it
will be the false prophet.
00:44:21.92\00:44:25.39
And this false prophet
is going to give his support
00:44:25.59\00:44:28.85
to that of the papacy.
00:44:29.09\00:44:31.11
So the beast of
Revelation 13, the first beast,
00:44:31.48\00:44:34.30
is that of the papacy.
00:44:34.33\00:44:35.66
The false prophet is
that of the United States.
00:44:35.86\00:44:40.68
So we have three. Okay?
00:44:42.73\00:44:45.13
We have the dragon,
which represents the devil.
00:44:45.96\00:44:51.07
We have the beast,
which represents the papacy.
00:44:52.21\00:44:56.10
And we have the false
prophet, who represents
00:44:56.51\00:44:59.16
the United States.
00:44:59.19\00:45:00.58
And these three
form a confederacy to do
00:45:01.11\00:45:06.80
what the devil leads them
to do and to go out and deceive
00:45:08.87\00:45:14.46
the whole world to
bring them together.
00:45:14.49\00:45:17.57
That's what it does.
00:45:17.60\00:45:18.63
And it says they
go out and deceive.
00:45:18.66\00:45:20.00
It is under this triumvirate
of these three powers
00:45:20.25\00:45:26.60
that you're going to
have the mark of the beast
00:45:27.14\00:45:30.55
put into power.
00:45:31.20\00:45:32.37
Because it says they
would deceive the whole world.
00:45:33.35\00:45:37.88
Not just a few, but the whole
world would be deceived by them.
00:45:37.91\00:45:41.71
That means, as I told
you, that means enforcement.
00:45:53.68\00:45:56.91
It's going to be
enforced upon the people.
00:45:57.63\00:46:01.09
So God has told us
before it ever happens, folks,
00:46:01.80\00:46:05.87
that you have the
antichrist, you're going to have
00:46:06.52\00:46:09.66
his partner and that
of the false prophet.
00:46:09.69\00:46:13.32
And these are going
to be, how should I say,
00:46:13.35\00:46:17.02
backed by that of
the devil, or the dragon.
00:46:17.05\00:46:20.75
This is what is going to happen.
00:46:21.40\00:46:22.73
And they will
enforce certain laws.
00:46:22.76\00:46:25.98
Churches...
00:46:26.18\00:46:27.28
Churches have no power.
00:46:28.68\00:46:32.68
They cannot enforce
their beliefs or their dogma.
00:46:33.77\00:46:37.50
They have to depend on
civil power to do that.
00:46:38.16\00:46:42.04
And this is what
you have happening.
00:46:42.69\00:46:44.47
I want to just
take a moment and say,
00:46:55.25\00:46:57.19
when it talks about
receiving it in the forehead,
00:46:58.99\00:47:01.22
it's not talking
about somebody coming around
00:47:02.80\00:47:05.21
and branding
you on the forehead.
00:47:05.24\00:47:07.39
That's not going to happen.
00:47:08.42\00:47:09.69
Or putting some
computer chip in your forehead.
00:47:10.63\00:47:14.57
That's not going
to happen, folks.
00:47:14.60\00:47:16.47
When it talks about it
being received in the forehead,
00:47:17.01\00:47:19.99
it means you and I give
mental acceptance to something.
00:47:20.02\00:47:26.53
That's what it's talking about.
00:47:26.91\00:47:28.15
The forehead
represents intelligence.
00:47:28.18\00:47:30.11
It means that I give
mental acceptance to this.
00:47:30.14\00:47:33.64
That's how you receive
the mark on your forehead.
00:47:33.94\00:47:37.18
And so it says that they
will cause the earth to worship
00:47:37.21\00:47:41.34
and all because they
accept what the beast and the
00:47:41.54\00:47:45.03
false prophet are saying.
00:47:45.06\00:47:46.48
Alright?
00:47:46.60\00:47:47.63
It also says it can be
received in the right hand.
00:47:47.66\00:47:50.52
By the way, there's
something in contrast to this.
00:47:50.80\00:47:54.63
And that is the seal of God.
00:47:54.93\00:47:56.86
The seal of God, the
Scripture says, is placed where?
00:47:58.09\00:48:03.10
In the forehead, that's
what the Scripture says.
00:48:03.62\00:48:05.65
It's placed in the forehead.
00:48:05.68\00:48:07.13
Because that means that I give
acceptance to what God says.
00:48:07.16\00:48:10.80
I follow Him, I obey
Him, and I do His will.
00:48:10.83\00:48:13.52
That is receiving
it in my forehead.
00:48:13.55\00:48:16.69
Never in the Scripture
does it say you can receive the
00:48:17.72\00:48:20.72
seal of God in your right hand.
00:48:20.75\00:48:22.80
You can receive the mark of
the beast in the right hand.
00:48:26.00\00:48:29.67
Because the right hand
represents, how should I say it,
00:48:29.70\00:48:34.91
it represents that
I go along with it.
00:48:34.94\00:48:37.76
I give my hand to
it, I cooperate with it.
00:48:37.96\00:48:40.80
That's what the
right hand represents.
00:48:40.83\00:48:42.88
And so the mark of the
beast, they'll give it to you
00:48:42.91\00:48:45.61
any way they can
get you to accept it.
00:48:45.64\00:48:47.14
But God will not
accept just the right hand.
00:48:47.71\00:48:50.75
You've got to believe it.
00:48:50.78\00:48:52.08
You've got to
accept it in your forehead.
00:48:52.11\00:48:54.25
It's got to be
part of your belief.
00:48:54.28\00:48:56.34
And this is what
it's talking about here.
00:48:56.65\00:48:58.68
And it says it would be
received in their forehead.
00:48:58.71\00:49:02.11
So it's going to
make it very, very hard
00:49:11.00\00:49:14.67
that you and I must
have the mark of the beast
00:49:15.26\00:49:17.92
or the number of his name.
00:49:18.66\00:49:20.19
How that will be
enforced, I'm not positive.
00:49:20.22\00:49:24.76
I don't know that anybody is.
00:49:24.79\00:49:27.02
But I can say, it wouldn't
be hard this day and age.
00:49:27.47\00:49:31.56
You know, we have great
problems going on right now
00:49:32.76\00:49:37.82
throughout the
world about finances.
00:49:37.85\00:49:40.29
And I can easily see the
day coming in which they'll take
00:49:40.71\00:49:45.26
money away and everybody
will have a credit card.
00:49:45.29\00:49:48.87
And the moment they do
that, then they can boycott you.
00:49:49.87\00:49:52.98
You can't be
able to buy or sell.
00:49:53.67\00:49:56.89
Okay.
00:49:57.76\00:49:58.79
"Here is..." What?
00:49:59.30\00:50:00.74
"...wisdom."
00:50:02.01\00:50:03.05
That refers
back to the maskilim.
00:50:04.52\00:50:08.70
The wise; here are the wise.
00:50:09.46\00:50:11.65
Now God has given us
one point after another
00:50:25.18\00:50:28.69
to identify who
these powers are.
00:50:28.72\00:50:30.97
He does the same thing here.
00:50:31.20\00:50:32.73
Because this number 666, folks,
is not the mark of the beast.
00:50:32.76\00:50:37.50
The number 666 is a
number that God gives us
00:50:38.73\00:50:42.12
to identify who the beast is.
00:50:42.49\00:50:46.24
That's what it's about.
00:50:46.53\00:50:48.29
And so it says
his number is 666.
00:50:48.85\00:50:53.00
So when we take a look at
it, it just works this way.
00:50:53.57\00:50:57.34
The pope, who is the
head of the papal power,
00:50:59.21\00:51:03.30
one of his official names that
he uses is Vicarius Filii Dei.
00:51:04.47\00:51:11.05
Vicarius Filii
Dei, folks, is Latin.
00:51:12.82\00:51:17.17
And if you remember, Latin
letters carry numerical value.
00:51:18.51\00:51:24.11
Okay.
00:51:24.93\00:51:25.96
In fact, you were
taught them in school.
00:51:25.99\00:51:28.42
You were taught
something called Roman numerals.
00:51:28.95\00:51:33.32
That's what it is.
00:51:33.79\00:51:34.82
Those are Latin letters
that have numerical value.
00:51:34.85\00:51:39.44
And so in Roman numerals,
"I" was worth how much?
00:51:39.74\00:51:44.98
Huh?
00:51:46.46\00:51:47.49
One.
00:51:47.66\00:51:48.83
"V" was worth five.
00:51:49.37\00:51:52.25
Fifty was worth...
00:51:52.86\00:51:54.35
Or I should say,
"L" was worth how much?
00:51:56.29\00:51:58.74
Fifty, excuse me.
00:51:59.04\00:52:00.48
Okay?
00:52:01.45\00:52:02.48
"C" is worth one hundred.
00:52:02.51\00:52:05.13
Those were Roman
numerals that you learned.
00:52:05.31\00:52:07.79
Probably have not had much
use for them all your life.
00:52:07.82\00:52:10.64
But they were given so
you can understand this.
00:52:11.04\00:52:13.61
So if we take the
name, "Vicarius Filii Dei;"
00:52:13.88\00:52:17.32
and "Vicarius" and you break
it down, the "V" is worth 5,
00:52:17.76\00:52:22.10
the "I" is worth 1,
the "C" is worth 100,
00:52:22.13\00:52:25.34
"A" has no numerical value,
"R" has no numerical value,
00:52:25.37\00:52:28.98
"I" has a value of
1, "U" carries the same
00:52:29.01\00:52:33.23
numerical value as "V."
00:52:33.26\00:52:35.50
In fact, "U" is a modern letter.
00:52:35.53\00:52:38.29
You can go to many of the old
courthouses across this country
00:52:38.32\00:52:42.53
and you'll find "court" spelled
with a "v," not with a "u."
00:52:42.56\00:52:46.43
Okay, so it carries
the same value as 5.
00:52:47.06\00:52:51.28
Okay, and "S" has
no numerical value.
00:52:51.94\00:52:54.14
That gives you 112.
00:52:54.17\00:52:55.74
"Filii."
00:52:56.30\00:52:57.40
"F" has how much?
00:52:57.66\00:52:59.91
It has no numerical value.
00:53:00.91\00:53:02.23
"I" has the value of 1,
"L" has the value of 50,
00:53:02.26\00:53:05.32
the two "I's" each
have the value of 1 each.
00:53:05.91\00:53:08.47
And "Dei."
00:53:08.77\00:53:10.10
"D" is worth 500, "E"
has no numerical value,
00:53:10.59\00:53:15.45
"I" is 1.
00:53:15.48\00:53:16.63
So it gives you 501.
00:53:16.66\00:53:18.30
If you add those
up, it comes out 666.
00:53:18.33\00:53:23.26
This was given to
identify this power.
00:53:23.83\00:53:27.72
So what I've tried to
get across to you tonight
00:53:27.99\00:53:30.49
is you must watch.
00:53:32.11\00:53:33.74
Because you're going to see
these powers coming together.
00:53:34.80\00:53:39.61
You're going to see the
papacy and the United States
00:53:40.36\00:53:43.99
working together to
carry out their objective.
00:53:44.02\00:53:48.20
And don't get...
How should I say.
00:53:48.23\00:53:51.05
Don't get distracted.
00:53:51.08\00:53:52.57
Don't let some things
that happen in the news
00:53:52.91\00:53:55.64
carry you off and you
miss really what is happening
00:53:55.67\00:53:58.93
in the world.
00:53:58.96\00:54:00.12
You need to be aware of
where we are, what is happening,
00:54:00.15\00:54:04.26
what's taking place, as it is
happening throughout the world
00:54:04.50\00:54:08.69
this very day.
00:54:08.72\00:54:10.16
That's why the Scripture says
that you and I need to be wise.
00:54:12.89\00:54:19.50
You need to spend
time in the Word of God.
00:54:20.68\00:54:23.14
You need to study it.
00:54:23.68\00:54:24.90
And as you do,
let the Lord lead you.
00:54:25.54\00:54:28.88
And He will help you
understand these things
00:54:29.15\00:54:31.98
and you'll see it as
we continue to go through
00:54:32.18\00:54:35.00
the Word of God and study it.
00:54:35.03\00:54:36.66
So God will bless you
as we study the Word of God
00:54:36.69\00:54:39.93
in a very, very definite way.
00:54:39.96\00:54:42.55
So let us pray.
00:54:42.58\00:54:43.71
Heavenly Father, we thank
You that You have revealed
00:54:44.93\00:54:51.22
in Your Word what is happening
right now here at the end.
00:54:51.25\00:54:55.35
And we can see
signs of this today, Lord,
00:54:56.21\00:54:59.12
that is taking place.
00:54:59.53\00:55:01.06
Bless each one that is
watching tonight, or listening,
00:55:01.97\00:55:06.72
or is here in person.
00:55:07.12\00:55:09.26
Lord, may they
commit their life to You.
00:55:09.46\00:55:14.21
May they purpose that they
will be faithful to Your Word.
00:55:14.59\00:55:19.84
And Lord, when it comes to
the place that it goes crosswise
00:55:20.45\00:55:25.55
with even the things that
a civil government may say,
00:55:26.29\00:55:29.89
that they're going to
put themselves on Your side,
00:55:29.92\00:55:33.06
they're going to stand with You.
00:55:33.36\00:55:35.00
Forgive us, Lord.
00:55:35.64\00:55:36.97
Forgive us of where
we have lacked in faith.
00:55:37.65\00:55:40.48
May we realize that You love
us and that You care for us.
00:55:41.10\00:55:45.77
And that You will care
for us all the way through,
00:55:45.97\00:55:49.98
even to Your coming.
00:55:50.24\00:55:51.88
Bless each one.
00:55:52.38\00:55:53.72
Keep them close to You.
00:55:54.18\00:55:55.36
We pray in Christ's name, amen.
00:55:55.39\00:55:58.81
Now tomorrow morning...
00:56:00.32\00:56:02.54
Tomorrow morning our subject
is, The King of the North.
00:56:04.02\00:56:08.53
The King of the North.
00:56:08.82\00:56:09.85
We're going to be looking
at Daniel the 11th chapter.
00:56:09.88\00:56:14.16
And in the 11th chapter,
it talks specifically about
00:56:14.98\00:56:19.82
this power, which
identifies it as the antichrist;
00:56:19.85\00:56:23.60
the king of the north.
00:56:23.85\00:56:25.71
Now you see, we've looked at
several symbolisms here tonight,
00:56:25.74\00:56:28.42
or the last few nights.
00:56:28.45\00:56:30.16
We've looked the little
horn, we've looked at the beast.
00:56:30.19\00:56:33.51
Now we're going to take a
look at the king of the north.
00:56:33.54\00:56:35.99
These are all symbols of the
antichrist, as God has explained
00:56:36.02\00:56:40.42
in His Word what is happening
and what is taking place.
00:56:40.45\00:56:43.85
So you and I need to sit
down and study those things
00:56:44.06\00:56:47.76
and see what is happening.
00:56:47.79\00:56:49.79
And I'll assure you that as
we go into the subject of the
00:56:49.82\00:56:53.53
king of the north, we'll
share with you some things
00:56:53.56\00:56:56.00
that I hope will be
helpful to you as you see
00:56:56.03\00:56:59.21
where we are, what's
happening, what's taking place.
00:56:59.24\00:57:02.62
So folks, I commend to
you again the Word of God
00:57:02.65\00:57:09.12
that you take
the time to study it.
00:57:09.91\00:57:13.63
Don't let
anything come in your way.
00:57:13.90\00:57:18.45
Spend time
studying the Word of God.
00:57:18.48\00:57:21.50
It will help you more
than anything else that I can
00:57:21.53\00:57:24.31
recommend to you.
00:57:24.34\00:57:25.66
God bless you.
Have a great evening.
00:57:25.69\00:57:28.00
We appreciate you being here.
00:57:28.03\00:57:29.49
Good night.
00:57:29.52\00:57:30.55
