Welcome to the last

The new Remant Study Bible has
all the study aid serious Bible
00:00:23.21\00:00:27.68
students have come to expect.
00:00:27.71\00:00:29.18
Like book introductions
and outlines, and extensive
00:00:29.21\00:00:32.09
concordance.
00:00:32.12\00:00:33.09
Over 40,000 cross references,

00:00:33.10\00:00:36.79
Maps and charts.
00:00:36.82\00:00:37.79
But with hundreds of other
study Bibles on the market,
00:00:37.82\00:00:42.09
the Remnant Study Bible
stands head and shoulders
00:00:42.12\00:00:44.29
above the rest.
00:00:44.32\00:00:45.49
Not only because it's everything
you've always needed in a
00:00:45.52\00:00:48.19
study Bible, but because it
takes studying the Bible to an
00:00:48.22\00:00:51.49
entirely new level.
00:00:51.52\00:00:52.79
From the hottest pens
since the Bible prophets,
00:00:52.82\00:00:56.10
the masterful commentary
of EG White is now included
00:00:56.51\00:00:59.80
alongside the New
King James Bible text.
00:00:59.83\00:01:02.70
As you read, these thought
provoking nuggets stand out from
00:01:02.73\00:01:05.70
the main Bible text and offers
spirit build insight to bring
00:01:05.73\00:01:09.10
text to life in an
inspiring and practical way.
00:01:09.13\00:01:11.60
If we stop right there, this
Bible would be an invaluable
00:01:11.63\00:01:15.10
resource to every home.
00:01:15.13\00:01:16.70
But keep watching,
we're just getting started.
00:01:16.90\00:01:19.20
The Remnant Study Bible offers
extensive study tools that not
00:01:20.30\00:01:24.00
only help you understand
but also enable you to share
00:01:24.03\00:01:27.30
these truths with others in
a whole new and effective way.
00:01:27.33\00:01:31.00
Feel confident as you share
on topics such as the prophecies
00:01:31.03\00:01:35.50
in Daniel Chapters 2, 7, and
8, and the 2300 Day Prophecy.
00:01:35.53\00:01:39.80
See the plan of salvation
plainly revealed in the
00:01:39.83\00:01:42.61
sanctuary and study the miracles
and parables of Jesus in a
00:01:42.64\00:01:46.26
deeper way than ever before.
00:01:46.33\00:01:48.10
Remnant has teamed with Thomas
Nelson Publishers, working
00:01:48.13\00:01:50.90
together for over a year, making
this the best study Bible ever
00:01:50.93\00:01:55.11
offered at any price.
00:01:55.14\00:01:56.51
The apostle of Peter makes
a bold call to all generations
00:01:57.01\00:02:00.41
to be a part of
God's Special Forces team.
00:02:00.44\00:02:03.51
We have done our very best
to provide you with the most
00:02:03.54\00:02:06.41
powerful sword
of truth available.
00:02:06.44\00:02:08.61
Now the decision
is in your hands.
00:02:08.64\00:02:11.41
Will you accept the challenge
to become part of God's
00:02:11.44\00:02:14.11
last day army?
00:02:14.14\00:02:15.41
Equip yourself today.
00:02:15.44\00:02:17.91
Have you ever wondered why
some married couples seem to
00:02:18.92\00:02:21.52
look alike, especially when
they they have been together
00:02:21.55\00:02:24.02
for a long time?
00:02:24.05\00:02:25.02
Studies have shown that there is
real evidence as to why couples
00:02:25.05\00:02:27.92
who have been married for a
long time tend to look similar
00:02:27.95\00:02:31.02
to each other.
00:02:31.05\00:02:32.02
According to research, the
increase in facial similarity
00:02:32.05\00:02:35.62
results from
decades of shared emotions.
00:02:35.65\00:02:37.72
This happens because of
something called 'mimicry'.
00:02:37.75\00:02:40.72
When couples have spent
many years together and they've
00:02:40.75\00:02:43.52
shared thousands of smiles
and frowns, their facial muscles
00:02:43.55\00:02:47.53
start to take on
similar patterns to each other.
00:02:47.56\00:02:49.83
It's also common to mimic each
other's habits which emphasizes
00:02:49.86\00:02:53.03
physical simmilarities.
00:02:53.06\00:02:54.23
And isn't it interesting to see
how some people look a lot like
00:02:54.26\00:02:57.73
their pets?
00:02:57.76\00:02:58.73
God tells us in his word that
by beholding we become changed.
00:02:58.74\00:03:03.33
Every day we are faced with
choices, what we eat, who we
00:03:03.36\00:03:06.83
spend time with, where we go,
and what we do, what we listen
00:03:06.86\00:03:10.23
to, and what we look at.
00:03:10.26\00:03:11.63
All of these things have an
impact on us and over time they
00:03:11.66\00:03:15.64
can and will shape
the person that we are.
00:03:15.67\00:03:17.94
Scriptures says
00:03:17.97\00:03:19.45
If we make the Bible our guide,
we will be the person God has
00:03:30.54\00:03:34.84
designed us to be.
00:03:34.87\00:03:35.84
This message that we have today
for you is not just our normal
00:04:12.46\00:04:15.16
Bible Alive but this was taken
and taped at our Remnant Rally.
00:04:15.19\00:04:20.06
And if you have not been
to one of our Remnant Rallies,
00:04:20.09\00:04:23.46
you need to come.
00:04:23.49\00:04:24.46
If you have any
questions, you call us at
00:04:24.47\00:04:26.87
or you can see these Remnant
00:04:29.74\00:04:31.16
This message, I know you're
going to be blessed because it's
00:04:35.92\00:04:38.66
so practical and
it's so needful today.
00:04:38.69\00:04:41.86
The Lord is truly coming
and I believe that we need to be
00:04:41.89\00:04:45.11
equipped with not just reading
the word of God but hearing
00:04:45.58\00:04:48.07
the word of God.
00:04:48.10\00:04:49.07
So without any further
delay, let's get started.
00:04:49.08\00:04:53.07
You can watch with me right now.
00:04:53.10\00:04:55.37
This is just a painting.
00:05:09.07\00:05:11.17
I don't know who painted it
and you know, there are things
00:05:11.20\00:05:14.37
in here that aren't
quite Biblically correct but
00:05:14.40\00:05:18.77
it doesn't matter.
00:05:18.80\00:05:19.77
I want to get a point across.
00:05:19.78\00:05:21.67
For those that don't know about
the sanctuary, I want to share
00:05:23.77\00:05:26.67
a couple of quick things here
and then I can go to my message.
00:05:26.70\00:05:30.17
Does anybody know that would
like to share what happens when
00:05:32.87\00:05:37.87
you sinned?
00:05:38.90\00:05:39.87
What do you have to do?
00:05:39.88\00:05:41.02
A sacrifice of what?
00:05:43.08\00:05:44.52
Of a lamb and sometimes
if you are poor it could be a
00:05:45.48\00:05:47.82
turtledove but let's say a lamb.
00:05:47.85\00:05:50.37
And what I want to get across
is that there were twelve tribes
00:05:50.40\00:05:54.53
and those tribes
were in different groups.
00:05:54.56\00:05:56.85
Can you see how
ther's groups there?
00:05:56.88\00:05:58.94
So you can get the picture.
00:05:58.97\00:05:59.94
Now, I want you to know that
beyond that courtyard it was...
00:05:59.95\00:06:05.47
...I have it in my Bible...
00:06:05.50\00:06:06.47
I can't remember if it
was - I think it was a good
00:06:06.50\00:06:08.68
half mile before the first tent.
00:06:08.71\00:06:10.57
Is that what it was?
00:06:10.60\00:06:11.57
Was it a mile?
00:06:11.58\00:06:12.55
I knew it was
either half mile or a mile.
00:06:12.56\00:06:14.39
Now, think of this.
00:06:14.42\00:06:16.25
Those tents weren't up to the
walls and it was in the desert.
00:06:16.28\00:06:20.44
Okay? And I don't
know about you but
00:06:20.47\00:06:23.16
I can't hide
really good in the sand.
00:06:23.19\00:06:25.15
I guess you could dig in there
and put a straw up so nobody
00:06:25.18\00:06:28.14
could see.
00:06:28.17\00:06:29.14
I don't know how you could do
it but I can hide behind a tree.
00:06:29.15\00:06:32.00
But that was in the desert,
the tents were about a mile from
00:06:32.03\00:06:38.57
the courtyard.
00:06:38.60\00:06:40.32
Now, when somebody sinned, I
would hope I would catch that
00:06:40.35\00:06:44.52
rush traffic of
noon hour or something...
00:06:44.55\00:06:47.19
you know, with all the other
people that sinned and I was
00:06:47.22\00:06:50.04
just walking with them,
hoping nobody could see me.
00:06:50.12\00:06:52.12
But you got to understand
that it was a serious thing
00:06:52.15\00:06:55.32
when you sinned and it's
always been a serious thing.
00:06:55.35\00:06:59.44
Right? Amen?
00:06:59.47\00:07:00.93
And they had the -
00:07:00.96\00:07:02.04
Can you imagine when you sin
and you had your little lamb?
00:07:02.07\00:07:05.57
They didn't do anything
wrong to you, which represented
00:07:05.60\00:07:08.01
Jesus Christ.
00:07:08.04\00:07:09.25
Can you imagine carrying
that lamb or walking it and...
00:07:09.28\00:07:12.62
You know how people talk behind
people's backs and in fact
00:07:12.65\00:07:16.09
I think that's one of the worst
so called 'Christian' things
00:07:16.12\00:07:19.65
that we do today and we have
to get rid of that or we won't
00:07:19.68\00:07:23.00
make it to heaven.
00:07:23.03\00:07:24.13
I don't care if he's
talking about somebody,
00:07:24.16\00:07:26.31
you're 100% right.
00:07:26.34\00:07:27.79
We have got to
get off of that. Amen?
00:07:27.82\00:07:30.88
But I can just imagine that
Dwights carrying his little lamb
00:07:30.91\00:07:37.74
and I'm trying to
camouflage myself.
00:07:38.26\00:07:40.48
You know when I was young I
had two compliments in school.
00:07:40.51\00:07:42.97
One was that I had a nice
smile and the other one was,
00:07:43.00\00:07:45.29
the girl said, "Dwight, when you
turn sideways you disappear. "
00:07:45.32\00:07:47.71
So I wouldn't even wear
shorts in the summer time,
00:07:47.74\00:07:50.11
I always wore long pants
because my legs were so skinny.
00:07:50.14\00:07:52.69
And so I had a complex.
00:07:52.72\00:07:54.14
I would just -
almost like that complex of
00:07:54.17\00:07:55.71
being skinny because I would
walk like this and hoping that
00:07:55.74\00:07:58.58
they'd only see the lamb and
I'd paint myself white because
00:07:58.61\00:08:01.38
I have to walk almost a
mile from the edge of the tents.
00:08:01.41\00:08:06.29
So remember, my tent could
be... Now remember, there was a
00:08:06.32\00:08:09.41
million or so people.
00:08:09.44\00:08:10.41
Can you imagine how
many tents there were?
00:08:10.43\00:08:12.01
You mean, how big is Coldwater?
Just 10,000 or so people.
00:08:12.04\00:08:16.57
We're talking about a
million, or two million people.
00:08:16.60\00:08:19.07
Now you had to take your lamb,
carry it up to your little ranks
00:08:20.32\00:08:23.29
here and then finally you have
this space of a lot of mile.
00:08:23.32\00:08:26.86
All by yourself.
00:08:26.89\00:08:29.18
And you're carrying that lamb
and I can just hear my neighbor
00:08:29.21\00:08:32.16
say, "I wonder what
Dwight did this time?"
00:08:32.19\00:08:35.65
"I bet it was
really bad. He must have -"
00:08:35.68\00:08:39.17
"I mean, look at - his
lamb's a little bigger than it
00:08:39.20\00:08:41.38
was last week. It
must be a BAD sin. "
00:08:41.41\00:08:44.41
And the word goes
all the way through.
00:08:44.44\00:08:46.72
The sad part - that would really
be a good thing by the way
00:08:46.75\00:08:49.51
because it should make you
understand that I don't want
00:08:49.54\00:08:51.97
to sin but I can imagine with
all those people, pretty soon
00:08:52.00\00:08:55.45
it was so busy, people
talking around that mile group,
00:08:55.48\00:08:57.84
that sin became what?
00:08:57.87\00:08:59.61
Just a common thing.
00:09:00.23\00:09:01.64
And God has set this road map
up of where we should be now.
00:09:01.67\00:09:06.23
When you took your lamb
in that courtyard, somebody
00:09:06.26\00:09:11.02
tell me what happens.
00:09:11.05\00:09:12.30
What happens?
00:09:12.33\00:09:13.65
What's the first
thing that you come to here?
00:09:13.68\00:09:15.61
This is a map by the way.
00:09:15.64\00:09:17.24
You go to the altar of
sacrfice. It's the first thing.
00:09:19.50\00:09:22.00
What happens at
the altar of sacrifice?
00:09:22.03\00:09:24.38
Yeah, the priest slit the
throat and that blood goes down
00:09:26.86\00:09:32.17
and then they
take that lamb apart.
00:09:32.20\00:09:34.03
You need to read it in the
Old Testament in Leviticus.
00:09:34.44\00:09:39.07
You need to read about
that, about a burned offering
00:09:39.10\00:09:42.63
and the sin sacrifice. But
again, I don't have time to
00:09:42.66\00:09:45.48
get into all that.
But let me ask you,
00:09:45.51\00:09:47.83
is that the finishing
point of the sanctuary?
00:09:47.86\00:09:49.73
I mean, think about that.
Right here, if I can get that.
00:09:50.89\00:09:54.19
Right there,
that's the first part.
00:09:54.22\00:09:55.32
That's way in the outside.
00:09:55.35\00:09:58.08
How many of us, you and I,
are still here right there?
00:09:58.11\00:10:02.82
How many of us are every night
00:10:02.85\00:10:05.05
saying, "Lord, forgive my sins
I've not done anything right. "
00:10:05.08\00:10:09.01
You know, "I need your blood,
Lord. Please forgive my sins. "
00:10:09.04\00:10:12.00
And we never
get past that point.
00:10:12.03\00:10:14.22
What we do is we keep bringing
our little lamb, Jesus Christ,
00:10:14.25\00:10:17.17
because we know when we
sin... What do we do to Christ?
00:10:17.20\00:10:19.94
Yeah, we crucify him afresh
because it takes his blood
00:10:22.00\00:10:25.40
to cover our sins. Amen.
00:10:25.43\00:10:27.55
And so, what I want to
paint today is a road map.
00:10:27.58\00:10:29.89
Now, I don't know about
you but I've many times,
00:10:29.92\00:10:35.38
had to use a map and today we
got GPS and so we can be even...
00:10:35.41\00:10:39.98
I should - I'm not going to
point at you. I'll point at me.
00:10:40.45\00:10:41.96
I can be actually less informed
about how to read a map because
00:10:41.99\00:10:47.03
it just tells me, "Take a
right turn in the next light. "
00:10:47.06\00:10:50.61
And you can even - if you like
it you can put different voices
00:10:50.64\00:10:54.01
and sounds and even an
Australian accent or English
00:10:54.04\00:10:56.95
or whatever. Now I
tell you, but for years
00:10:56.98\00:10:59.73
I just had an Atlas
when I was travelling.
00:10:59.76\00:11:02.72
And what does that map do?
00:11:02.75\00:11:04.21
It tells me where I'm at and
it tells me where I've come from
00:11:04.24\00:11:09.07
and it tells me
where I've got to get to.
00:11:09.10\00:11:12.17
Amen?
00:11:12.20\00:11:13.26
Now, I don't know
about you, but to me a map
00:11:13.29\00:11:16.84
is not that interesting.
I've never said, "Honey, kids,
00:11:16.87\00:11:20.50
get out the map tonight. We
got some exciting stuff going
00:11:20.53\00:11:23.65
on in the map. "
00:11:23.68\00:11:24.75
I've never done that.
00:11:24.78\00:11:26.08
To me, maps are kind of
boring. But are they vital?
00:11:26.11\00:11:28.49
They're absolutely vital.
We need maps to let us know
00:11:28.52\00:11:33.04
where we've been, where we
are, where we need to get to,
00:11:33.07\00:11:38.39
the whole nine.
00:11:38.42\00:11:39.39
So, the sanctuary is
no different than that.
00:11:39.40\00:11:42.35
It's a map. It might
not be that interesting
00:11:42.38\00:11:44.71
on the outside, but
this map tells you what?
00:11:44.74\00:11:49.31
Where you're at - or
where you started, excuse me.
00:11:49.34\00:11:54.74
Where you're at and
where you need to get to.
00:11:54.77\00:11:58.52
Does that make sense?
00:11:58.55\00:11:59.98
Amen?
00:12:00.01\00:12:01.08
Now, this is what happened.
00:12:01.11\00:12:04.37
And if I could draw a picture of
this - I don't know, let's see
00:12:04.40\00:12:07.57
what we've got here.
We got another picture.
00:12:07.60\00:12:09.17
There's another picture.
It's not going to show but if
00:12:09.20\00:12:12.38
I could take an aerial view
and some of you and some of you
00:12:12.41\00:12:13.88
have seen this picture,
you can draw a cross through
00:12:13.91\00:12:18.49
the sanctuary. How
many of you have seen that?
00:12:18.52\00:12:20.90
So I'm not the only
one that has seen it.
00:12:20.93\00:12:22.93
Where you start at the
bottom at the altar of sacrifice
00:12:22.96\00:12:25.04
down there. You
start down there at the
00:12:25.44\00:12:28.13
bottom, that becomes
the foot of the cross.
00:12:28.37\00:12:30.10
You move up to the laver, you
go out because in the holy place
00:12:30.23\00:12:34.54
there's 3 articles of furniture.
It's the lampstand on the left,
00:12:34.60\00:12:40.09
if you were going in.
You've got the altar of incense
00:12:40.12\00:12:44.58
in front of you, right at
the curtain next to the most
00:12:44.83\00:12:47.08
holy place and then
on the right you have
00:12:47.11\00:12:48.66
table of showbread. And
it's not perfectly straight
00:12:48.79\00:12:51.85
across. I don't know how it was
but you know that one is by the
00:12:51.94\00:12:55.01
curtain and altar of incense.
But if you can imagine with me,
00:12:55.42\00:12:58.40
you go up of the cross,
you go out for the arms there,
00:12:58.43\00:13:02.16
and then you go up a little bit
into the holy place where the
00:13:02.19\00:13:05.45
ark of the covenant
is at. Isn't that neat?
00:13:05.48\00:13:08.09
That's the cross.
00:13:08.12\00:13:09.54
Now, when you sin,
where are you starting?
00:13:09.57\00:13:12.72
You're starting at
the foot of the cross!
00:13:14.17\00:13:15.85
What do we have to do
when we give our sins to Jesus?
00:13:15.88\00:13:18.30
Where do we start?
At the top of the cross?
00:13:18.33\00:13:20.49
We've heard it all
along, come to the - what?
00:13:21.21\00:13:24.33
Come to the foot of the
cross and roll that burden off,
00:13:24.36\00:13:29.03
that Jesus' blood
will cover you. Amen?
00:13:29.06\00:13:33.20
Now what's the next step?
Now, I love what Pastor Kang
00:13:33.23\00:13:35.75
said last night and
I might have it here.
00:13:35.80\00:13:38.16
The next step is
the water of lavor.
00:13:38.19\00:13:40.04
And what does that represent?
00:13:40.07\00:13:41.50
Baptism. It's simple.
00:13:41.53\00:13:44.51
It represents baptism, which
means that once you've come
00:13:44.54\00:13:47.69
to the foot of the cross
and said, "Jesus, here I am. "
00:13:47.72\00:13:51.19
"I'm a sinner", like
that publican in Matthew.
00:13:51.22\00:13:54.23
"I'm a sinner, Lord", and
he beats his breast and he says
00:13:54.26\00:13:56.39
"I don't even have the right to
come to you but please take me."
00:13:56.42\00:14:01.89
"I want to do your will."
00:14:01.92\00:14:03.96
And once you do
that, you go then.
00:14:03.99\00:14:06.44
The next step is the water of
lavor which represents baptism.
00:14:06.47\00:14:09.66
Baptism means what?
00:14:09.69\00:14:12.63
Baptism - by the way, in Greek
means 'baptizmo' which means
00:14:12.66\00:14:16.88
go under the
water and come back up.
00:14:16.91\00:14:18.62
That's why we believe,
Christians, that you should be
00:14:18.65\00:14:21.05
baptized under the water because
what does that represent?
00:14:21.08\00:14:23.99
Death!
00:14:24.02\00:14:24.99
Death to what?
00:14:25.00\00:14:25.97
Self.
00:14:25.98\00:14:27.15
So we die what?
00:14:27.18\00:14:28.24
We go down in that water
represents dying of self.
00:14:28.27\00:14:30.81
We come back what? A new
creature in Jesus Christ.
00:14:30.84\00:14:35.29
That's how they got the
name Baptist - John the Baptist.
00:14:35.32\00:14:39.36
Okay. Does it end there?
00:14:41.53\00:14:43.20
And can we go in any other way?
00:14:44.22\00:14:45.62
Look, if I change this around.
00:14:45.65\00:14:47.22
Should you get baptized
first and then ask for God
00:14:47.25\00:14:51.34
to forgive your sins?
00:14:51.37\00:14:53.25
It doesn't work that way.
00:14:53.28\00:14:54.25
In other words, do you
and I have the right to change
00:14:54.26\00:14:56.83
a map around?
00:14:56.86\00:14:58.49
And even if we
do, will we get there?
00:14:58.52\00:15:00.59
But yet, in God's word
we have - we have tampered
00:15:01.59\00:15:05.29
with God's word. Many
of us, probably every one
00:15:05.32\00:15:08.52
of us here have tried
to tamper with God's word.
00:15:08.55\00:15:11.21
We have tried to finagle and do
things, and change things around
00:15:11.24\00:15:15.96
to match what
feels good with us.
00:15:15.99\00:15:18.60
And then here's
what we do to rectify it.
00:15:18.63\00:15:21.42
"Well, I know I'm
not perfect but... "
00:15:21.45\00:15:26.19
"... did you see so and so?"
00:15:26.22\00:15:28.13
We always want to knock somebody
else down to make ourselves
00:15:28.16\00:15:31.63
look better. And so
then we're tampering
00:15:31.66\00:15:34.38
with God's word. We
need to go exactly where it's
00:15:34.41\00:15:37.19
supposed to be.
00:15:37.22\00:15:38.24
Okay. Now once you get baptism -
00:15:39.55\00:15:41.80
when you come up a new creature
in Christ, what does that mean?
00:15:41.83\00:15:44.25
What happens? Is it over with?
00:15:45.04\00:15:47.12
We're not even in
the Holy Place yet.
00:15:47.56\00:15:50.07
So now we're going to the
Holy Place because now we've got
00:15:51.23\00:15:53.74
something that God is calling
us to do and that's that work of
00:15:53.77\00:15:57.65
sanctification. And by
the way, I've done a lot
00:15:57.68\00:16:02.10
study on this and it seemed like
I'm finding it more and more.
00:16:02.13\00:16:05.00
But do this study - when
you're studying your Bible,
00:16:05.03\00:16:07.58
when you come up many
times the three things.
00:16:07.61\00:16:10.04
Like Jesus said, "I am the
way, the truth, and the life. "
00:16:10.07\00:16:16.45
Do you know if you look
at that, the way is physical.
00:16:16.48\00:16:19.81
It's walking, it's physical.
00:16:19.84\00:16:21.23
"I am the way, follow
me. " What? "Do what I do. "
00:16:21.26\00:16:24.45
Amen?
00:16:24.48\00:16:25.45
I am the - what? Way. The what?
00:16:25.47\00:16:28.00
Truth - and the truth
will what? Set you free.
00:16:28.03\00:16:33.51
"I am the
truth" - that's mental.
00:16:33.54\00:16:35.09
So you got body,
mind, and spirit -
00:16:35.12\00:16:36.69
physical, mental, and spiritual.
So now "I'm the way, the truth,"
00:16:36.72\00:16:40.23
and what? 'And the
life' is spiritual.
00:16:40.26\00:16:42.77
Christ wants us to
be spiritual. Amen?
00:16:42.80\00:16:45.52
So now if you look at the
sanctuary, you got the outer
00:16:45.55\00:16:48.30
court of justification.
You come as you are!
00:16:48.33\00:16:51.80
Christ loves you.
He'll accept anyone.
00:16:51.83\00:16:54.35
And then you get back
there because you're saying,
00:16:54.38\00:16:56.00
"I want you not only to be
my Saviour but I want you to be
00:16:56.03\00:16:58.80
my King and my Lord.
And I want to follow You. "
00:16:58.83\00:17:01.12
"Whatever You're
asking me to do. "
00:17:01.15\00:17:03.30
Does that make
sense? But you're not done.
00:17:03.33\00:17:05.56
You can't go right on saying,
"I'm just saved. I'm saved. "
00:17:05.59\00:17:07.72
"I'm saved", and
just do whatever you want.
00:17:07.75\00:17:10.04
Because then, you're
not going to be saved.
00:17:10.07\00:17:12.58
You know, Lucifer was
saved at one time, wasn't he?
00:17:12.61\00:17:14.61
He was the
bright and morning star.
00:17:14.64\00:17:17.36
Now we're going to go in
the Holy Place and in that
00:17:17.39\00:17:19.80
Holy Place, that's the
starting of sanctification.
00:17:19.83\00:17:22.36
That's going to let us
know what we're to do now.
00:17:23.98\00:17:27.03
When you first go in
there you've got the -
00:17:27.06\00:17:28.89
as you walk in this way, if
like me you're walking this way,
00:17:28.92\00:17:31.86
this side is the lampstand.
00:17:31.89\00:17:33.96
Can anybody tell me what
that Lampstand can represent
00:17:33.99\00:17:36.83
or does represent?
00:17:36.86\00:17:37.83
Holy Spirit.
00:17:38.33\00:17:39.48
They had to keep
that Lampstand lit 24/7.
00:17:39.51\00:17:43.10
Does the Holy Spirit
fall asleep on you and I?
00:17:43.13\00:17:46.67
Sometimes I've wondered if
it has on me before because
00:17:46.93\00:17:49.25
I don't listen.
00:17:49.28\00:17:50.58
But you know what, it doesn't.
00:17:50.78\00:17:52.01
It's faithful to
work on my heart.
00:17:52.04\00:17:55.16
It's just sometimes I
don't listen real well.
00:17:55.19\00:17:57.45
What a sad thing.
00:17:58.10\00:17:59.38
You've got that
lamp, the Holy Spirit.
00:17:59.41\00:18:01.33
And what is that?
That's mental, is it not right?
00:18:01.36\00:18:03.82
You've got the Word of
God or the Table of Showbread.
00:18:03.85\00:18:07.59
And what did Jesus
say? "Man shall not -" what?
00:18:07.62\00:18:10.15
Live by bread alone, by every
word that proceedeth out of
00:18:10.18\00:18:12.88
the mouth of God. Right?
00:18:12.91\00:18:14.04
That represents
the Word of God. Okay?
00:18:14.07\00:18:16.79
Now again, I can get into it
a lot deeper but I don't want
00:18:16.82\00:18:19.53
to do that. I want
you to get a picture.
00:18:19.56\00:18:21.44
Then you go up to
the Altar of Incense.
00:18:21.47\00:18:23.12
What does that represent?
00:18:23.15\00:18:24.79
The prayers, intercessory...
00:18:26.30\00:18:27.48
The prayers going up to
our Heavenly Father saying,
00:18:27.51\00:18:30.48
"Oh, Lord, I'm so
sorry. I messed up. "
00:18:30.51\00:18:33.00
Do you remember when Jesus,
at the Last Supper, and you
00:18:33.03\00:18:38.31
remember when He stood there and
He was waiting for someone to
00:18:38.34\00:18:41.23
wash His feet?
00:18:41.26\00:18:43.12
Do you remember that?
What a sad story, really.
00:18:43.15\00:18:45.15
And everybody was looking around
and Jesus had it worked out
00:18:45.18\00:18:48.56
that... You
know, they had sandals
00:18:48.59\00:18:49.94
back then and so the feet
would get dusty and dirty.
00:18:49.97\00:18:52.17
And so, when they would go
into places to eat and stuff,
00:18:52.20\00:18:55.00
what would they
do? What would happen?
00:18:55.03\00:18:57.09
Some servant would be there
and they'd wash your feet so you
00:18:57.12\00:19:00.25
didn't have to go in
the house with dirty feet.
00:19:00.28\00:19:02.21
Now when they went into
that last supper that night,
00:19:03.15\00:19:05.43
there was no servant.
00:19:05.46\00:19:06.85
None.
00:19:07.95\00:19:08.97
And all the
disciples were looking around.
00:19:09.00\00:19:10.91
"Well, I ain't
washing his feet!"
00:19:10.94\00:19:13.60
You know, "He ought to be
washing mine as many things
00:19:13.63\00:19:15.70
as he's done wrong. "
00:19:15.73\00:19:16.78
And Jesus was saddened
and so what did Jesus do?
00:19:16.81\00:19:20.38
He was the one that
took the first step.
00:19:21.54\00:19:23.13
And when he went to Peter,
Peter said, "Look, you're not
00:19:23.16\00:19:25.62
gonna wash my feet. " And
Jesus said, "If I don't wash
00:19:25.65\00:19:28.41
your feet, you
have no part of Me. "
00:19:28.44\00:19:29.74
And then what did he say?
00:19:29.77\00:19:30.74
"Wash all of me!
Just take all of me!"
00:19:31.54\00:19:34.12
And he said, "No,
you're just a little soiled. "
00:19:34.15\00:19:35.79
So as we go in here,
we get a little soiled.
00:19:35.82\00:19:39.73
Sanctification takes a work of a
lifetime, brothers and sisters.
00:19:39.76\00:19:42.75
I don't know about you, but I've
been at Remnant Publications
00:19:42.78\00:19:45.38
like around 25 years and had
I known myself 25 years ago...
00:19:45.41\00:19:52.15
I mean, I did know myself
but if I could know myself
00:19:52.18\00:19:55.50
back then 25 years ago,
I wouldn't have picked me.
00:19:55.53\00:19:58.66
I'm not worthy to
be part of a ministry.
00:19:58.69\00:20:02.48
But God chose me back then
inspite of Dwight, the old self.
00:20:02.53\00:20:07.34
He chose me back then and
I'm learning, 24 years later
00:20:07.37\00:20:10.65
I'm thinking I cannot believe
I said that. I cannot believe
00:20:10.68\00:20:13.71
I did that. Has that
ever happened to you?
00:20:13.74\00:20:16.71
But praise God, He
doesn't forget us. He woos us
00:20:16.74\00:20:20.15
moment by moment, day by day.
00:20:20.18\00:20:24.13
Now we go into that Holy
Place. Now, in the Holy Place...
00:20:25.73\00:20:29.74
there's the Ark of the Covenant
and on top of that was called
00:20:29.77\00:20:33.67
the 'Mercy Seat'. You
have two angels on top
00:20:33.70\00:20:36.50
of that. What I want
to get across is this.
00:20:36.53\00:20:38.87
Inside that Ark
there were three items.
00:20:38.90\00:20:43.80
What were they?
00:20:43.83\00:20:44.80
Ten Commandment Law.
00:20:45.79\00:20:46.91
Aaron's rod that budded.
00:20:47.75\00:20:49.37
And the Manna.
00:20:49.98\00:20:52.52
Two Cherubs on top but on
the inside the Ten Commandments,
00:20:52.55\00:20:57.38
Aaron's rod that
budded, and the Manna.
00:20:57.41\00:21:00.74
Now I want you
to think about this.
00:21:00.77\00:21:02.03
Now remember, when you look at
threes and threes, because when
00:21:02.06\00:21:06.33
we lost our image to God, we did
not lose it in just one thing.
00:21:06.36\00:21:11.75
We lost it in our body, we lost
it in our mind, and we lost it
00:21:11.78\00:21:17.70
spiritually. You understand?
00:21:17.73\00:21:20.08
And God wants to restore
His image in all three things.
00:21:20.11\00:21:22.98
You and I, it's like
a three legged stool.
00:21:23.01\00:21:24.85
Just because you go to church
and just because you donate
00:21:24.88\00:21:28.86
today, and just because you
know the truth but physically
00:21:28.89\00:21:34.10
you're not walking the way
with Jesus Christ, you're lost!
00:21:34.13\00:21:37.81
And that's what this road of
sanctification is and we've got
00:21:37.84\00:21:41.16
to get really out
of the Outer Court.
00:21:41.19\00:21:44.85
We need to get into
that Most Holy Place.
00:21:44.88\00:21:46.71
Where are you at today? You
need to ask yourselves that.
00:21:46.74\00:21:49.10
What am I doing? Am I
continually just saying,
00:21:49.13\00:21:51.41
"Lord, forgive my sins, forgive
my sins," and I'm not really
00:21:51.44\00:21:53.19
making any
headway where I should be?
00:21:53.22\00:21:55.97
So now think of this,
you've got the Outer Court...
00:21:56.00\00:21:58.65
Stands for what? Justification.
00:21:58.68\00:22:00.55
You go to the Holy
Place, What does that stand for?
00:22:00.58\00:22:03.30
Sanctification. And
you got the Most Holy -
00:22:03.33\00:22:05.77
that stands for
Glorification. Three things -
00:22:05.80\00:22:08.95
body, mind, and soul.
00:22:08.98\00:22:10.10
Now, we go into the Holy Place,
you've got body, mind, and soul,
00:22:10.13\00:22:15.20
physical, mental, and spiritual.
You've got the Table of
00:22:15.23\00:22:16.62
Showbread - mental.
You've got the Lampstands...
00:22:16.65\00:22:19.63
Excuse me, mental
or the Holy Spirit.
00:22:19.66\00:22:22.06
The Word of God - physical
because it tells us what to do.
00:22:22.09\00:22:24.41
You've got the Altar of
Incense which is spiritual.
00:22:24.44\00:22:27.72
You see that? Now we
go into the Most Holy
00:22:27.75\00:22:29.87
Place and... Here's
another thing I want you
00:22:29.90\00:22:33.35
to understand
before going into that.
00:22:33.38\00:22:34.98
In the Holy Place, every
one of those items are in the
00:22:35.01\00:22:40.33
Holy Place or outside
they're an item by themselves.
00:22:40.36\00:22:44.16
Have you ever thought of that?
One's over here, one's over here
00:22:44.19\00:22:48.03
and one's up here.
They're by themselves.
00:22:48.06\00:22:51.16
And we're working on gettting
all that working together.
00:22:51.19\00:22:56.07
Jesus said what?
"Follow me, follow in the way
00:22:56.10\00:22:58.33
of truth and life. " You
go into the Most Holy Place,
00:22:58.36\00:23:01.14
and now all
those items are where?
00:23:01.17\00:23:05.00
Together. And where're they at?
00:23:05.32\00:23:06.78
They're inside the Ark. Amen?
00:23:06.81\00:23:09.35
What does God want to do to us?
00:23:09.38\00:23:10.99
He says, "I want to
put my love... " Where?
00:23:11.02\00:23:13.12
"... in your hearts. "
00:23:13.15\00:23:14.70
Paul said, "When inspired,
let this mind... " What?
00:23:17.91\00:23:23.39
"... be in you
that was... " What?
00:23:23.42\00:23:25.01
"... in Christ Jesus. "
So now he's got these three
00:23:25.04\00:23:28.85
things inside the Ark, let's
see if we can figure it out.
00:23:28.88\00:23:31.73
We've got the law of God,
you've got the jar of - what?
00:23:31.76\00:23:36.86
Manna.
00:23:36.89\00:23:38.43
And you have
Aaron's rod that budded.
00:23:38.46\00:23:41.57
Now, the jar of Manna, what do
you think that might stand for?
00:23:41.60\00:23:44.57
The bread -
physical. Body, right?
00:23:45.51\00:23:48.43
If you remember that
Jesus said in the wilderness,
00:23:48.46\00:23:50.93
you had the Manna that
came down, he was talking about
00:23:50.96\00:23:54.99
the Word of God.
00:23:55.02\00:23:55.99
That's what that represents -
the Word. That's the physical.
00:23:56.00\00:23:59.23
It's for the body.
00:23:59.26\00:24:00.26
You've got
Aaron's rod that budded.
00:24:00.29\00:24:02.30
You have an idea what that is?
00:24:02.33\00:24:04.10
I'll share that
a little bit later.
00:24:04.63\00:24:06.05
That's the mental.
00:24:06.86\00:24:08.26
That's the mind and we'll
share why that's the mind,
00:24:08.89\00:24:11.71
and then you have the Law. And
what is the Law supposed to be
00:24:11.74\00:24:15.42
in us? Spiritual!
00:24:15.45\00:24:18.09
Written in our hearts!
00:24:18.12\00:24:20.21
We can never get
rid of the Law of God.
00:24:20.24\00:24:22.40
And by the way, as Pastor
David Kang and Pastor Mark and
00:24:22.43\00:24:26.04
the others have spoke that
this Sanctuary that we see,
00:24:26.07\00:24:29.81
that was put on this earth as
a symbol is all through Hebrews
00:24:29.84\00:24:34.18
in the New Testament.
It's not just the Old Testament
00:24:34.21\00:24:36.43
and it's in Revelation.
When Jesus was walking amongst
00:24:36.46\00:24:39.65
the Lampstands,
what is it talking about?
00:24:39.68\00:24:41.96
It's talking
about the Sanctuary.
00:24:43.06\00:24:44.89
Okay? It's a map. Okay?
00:24:44.92\00:24:47.46
I'm going to cut that
off, I think I'm through with
00:24:47.49\00:24:50.12
that now.
00:24:50.15\00:24:51.47
Now these road signs - I
wanted to get that up there but
00:24:51.50\00:24:57.41
you can picture it.
Everyone's been through -
00:24:57.44\00:24:59.25
has seen a stop sign.
00:24:59.28\00:25:01.29
And I just want you
to get this in your mind,
00:25:01.98\00:25:04.63
for all have sinned and
come short of the glory of God.
00:25:04.66\00:25:06.93
Is that true?
00:25:06.96\00:25:08.18
But what?
00:25:08.97\00:25:09.94
The Lord is saying, "Stop! Stop!
I know you sinned, but stop!
00:25:09.95\00:25:16.85
"I've sent My Son, that
He can give you victory... "
00:25:16.88\00:25:19.95
"... if you follow Him. "
00:25:19.98\00:25:21.52
"Road Work Ahead",
have you ever seen that?
00:25:21.55\00:25:25.50
I've never had this
happen but I've had friends
00:25:25.53\00:25:28.46
that has had it happened when
you're driving on the freeway
00:25:28.49\00:25:30.08
and they have road
work, and you don't slow down.
00:25:30.11\00:25:33.52
The fines are what?
00:25:33.55\00:25:35.43
Doubled. You know. See?
00:25:35.46\00:25:37.52
The fines are doubled.
00:25:37.55\00:25:38.75
So, there's road work.
Road work has to be done...
00:25:39.55\00:25:42.32
Does road work have to
be done with you and I?
00:25:42.35\00:25:44.17
That's that work of
sanctification but we've got to
00:25:45.03\00:25:47.02
get out of the Outer Court.
That's why this is a road map
00:25:47.05\00:25:51.28
to us. Okay,
let's go with another
00:25:51.31\00:25:52.89
couple of signs
00:25:52.92\00:25:53.93
How about 'Dead End'?
00:25:55.94\00:25:57.24
Have you ever... Men,
if you were in construction
00:25:59.19\00:26:02.94
or you went on vacation... I
love GPSs now because it very
00:26:02.97\00:26:07.16
seldom it gets me
going down a dead end.
00:26:07.19\00:26:10.24
But a few years ago, I went
out West with a few friends and
00:26:11.34\00:26:15.87
we had my diesel truck that
was a crew cab which means that
00:26:15.90\00:26:22.86
seat in the front, seat
in the back, so it's long.
00:26:22.89\00:26:25.32
Then I had a fifth wheel, like
a 36 foot fifth wheel, and then
00:26:25.35\00:26:28.58
at back of that I had
like a 27 foot trailer.
00:26:28.61\00:26:31.95
It's called a
recreational level.
00:26:31.98\00:26:33.22
In fact, in Michigan, you have
to take a little test so that
00:26:33.25\00:26:35.99
you can drive
one of those things.
00:26:36.02\00:26:37.75
Now I was around 65 feet long,
like a semi, and I'll never
00:26:37.78\00:26:42.07
forget we got
down the wrong road!
00:26:42.10\00:26:45.05
And it's a lot harder backing
up two trailers, if you've ever
00:26:46.57\00:26:50.14
tried, people.
It's almost impossible.
00:26:50.17\00:26:54.68
And many people can't even
back up one trailer, try two,
00:26:54.71\00:26:57.34
because everything is
just - it's a terrible thing,
00:26:57.37\00:26:59.72
believe me. And
so, I got there and got
00:26:59.75\00:27:01.98
backed up and I hate dead ends.
00:27:02.01\00:27:03.84
If I would have followed the
map, I wouldn't have to go down
00:27:03.87\00:27:09.28
that dead end.
00:27:09.31\00:27:10.45
Praise God, I got out. Amen.
00:27:13.00\00:27:14.55
Even though we go down
the dead end street sometimes
00:27:14.58\00:27:16.83
because we want to do a - what?
00:27:16.86\00:27:18.07
Our way. God still has the map,
00:27:18.77\00:27:21.40
doesn't he? But you
and I have to surrender
00:27:21.43\00:27:23.98
to that map and we have to go
his way, and the messages that
00:27:24.01\00:27:27.73
you've been hearing in the last
few days is that how much time
00:27:27.76\00:27:32.00
do you and I have to keep
going down dead end streets.
00:27:32.03\00:27:37.46
By working together, 1.7 Million
copies of the Passion of Love
00:27:39.68\00:27:43.83
were distributed around
the country, resulting in an
00:27:43.86\00:27:46.97
unprecedented partnership with
Walmart, that lead to over a
00:27:47.00\00:27:50.41
thousand Bible studies.
00:27:50.44\00:27:52.24
By working together,
over 6 Million copies of the
00:27:53.01\00:27:55.70
Ten Commandments Twice Removed
were shared around the world,
00:27:55.73\00:27:59.29
resulting in more than
20 churches now keeping the
00:27:59.32\00:28:02.11
Bible Sabbath.
00:28:02.14\00:28:03.59
By working together, we have
shipped almost a million Bibles
00:28:03.62\00:28:07.56
to spiritually thirsty
Christians in Africa, touching
00:28:07.59\00:28:10.59
the lives of 20
Million people for Christ.
00:28:10.62\00:28:13.46
Working together is what allows
Remnant Publications to spread
00:28:14.33\00:28:18.48
truth-filled books
around the world to hasten the
00:28:18.51\00:28:21.51
Lord's coming.
00:28:21.54\00:28:22.96
Will you join
us in that mission?
00:28:22.99\00:28:25.20
Will you help us reach the world
for Jesus one book at a time?
00:28:25.23\00:28:29.43
