And when he had spoken these things, while 01:14 they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him 01:18 out of their sight. 01:20 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven 01:23 as he went up, behold," how many men? 01:25 Come on, how many men? 01:27 "Two men stood by them in white apparel; which also 01:29 said, "Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing 01:33 up into heaven? 01:35 This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, 01:39 shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into 01:46 heaven.'" In harmony with the culmination of our 01:48 Back to School Revival here at Oakwood 01:51 our subject today is The Comeback, 01:56 The Comeback. 01:59 Lord God, right now come into this place, breathe your Holy 02:03 Ghost in this place, go beyond the printed page and, God, 02:09 speak to our hearts this day. 02:12 God, we be careful to give you the praise beyond the glory 02:14 and when the appeal is made, I pray that individuals respond 02:17 to your voice, oh, God, by the power of your Spirit 02:20 that they would give their life to Jesus. 02:24 It's in the name of Jesus we pray, let every blood-washed 02:28 soul say Amen. 02:29 And Amen. 02:31 The comeback. 02:35 The year is 1995, the place is the famous Madison Square 02:44 Garden in New York City, New York, New York. 02:47 Somebody knows it's so nice you have to say it twice. 02:53 The setting was game one of the Eastern Conference 02:57 Semifinals between the New York Knicks and 03:01 the Indiana Pacers. 03:04 Knicks fans, including Spike Lee, hated Indiana Pacer star 03:09 guard Reggie Miller so much that ESPN made this game the 03:14 subject of one of their Thirty for Thirty documentaries. 03:20 Some of you remember that disdain of Spike Lee and other 03:23 loyal Knicks fans. 03:25 Miller singlehandedly led his team to a stunning 107-105 03:34 comeback win over the Knicks in the Garden. 03:36 With 18.7 seconds left in the game the Knicks led 03:41 by six points. 03:42 Miller then hit a 3-pointer, stole the ensuing inbound 03:47 pass, dribbled behind the 3-point line and 03:52 hit another 3-pointer. 03:54 Miller went on later to hit two free throws to put the 03:57 Pacers ahead for the win and up 1-0 in the series. 04:02 This is considered by many as one of the greatest 04:07 comebacks in NBA history. 04:10 History was made in 2008 when Barack Obama was elected 04:17 the first African-American President of the 04:21 United States of America. 04:22 Are you hearing what I'm saying? 04:25 During his presidential campaign he made it clear that 04:28 one of his promises was to end the war in Iraq. 04:34 On December 16, 2011, despite the critics, despite the 04:42 naysaying, despite the political pundits, despite the 04:47 haters, American soldiers began arriving back in the 04:52 United States. U.S. soldiers, my friends, have been 04:56 deployed and they are out of Iraq. 05:00 This comeback is historic. 05:03 After the death of nearly 5,000 American troops and 05:06 injuries to thousands more, the troops have 05:09 come back home. 05:11 When they enter the airport people cheer. 05:17 When they walk up and down the streets, you smile and nod in 05:20 respect and admiration. 05:23 Our soldiers have come back. 05:27 The Bible also talks about comeback. 05:31 I take my Bible and I go to the book of Luke, Chapter 15 05:34 and Jesus tells the parable of the comeback, the parable 05:38 of the prodigal son. 05:40 A father has two sons, the younger son gets his 05:44 inheritance early and leaves home. 05:47 The older son remains at home and works. 05:50 The younger son spends his money on riotous, 05:53 foolish living. 05:54 He reaches his lowest point. 05:56 He feeds on what swine did eat. 05:59 He comes to himself. 06:02 He says he's going home to his father because he would do 06:06 better in his father's house as a servant. 06:09 He walks up the driveway to his father's house. 06:13 His father sees him afar off. 06:16 His father screams in excitement, bring my son the 06:20 best robes, bring the fatted calf, because this, my son, 06:24 was lost but is now found. 06:27 He was blind but now he sees. 06:30 This parable illustrates that when you come back to our 06:36 heavenly father he receives you with open, outstretched 06:38 arms and says, come back home. 06:40 This is spiritual comeback. 06:44 But the ultimate comeback will not be when the Pacers beat 06:49 the Knicks in the Garden, would not be when the American 06:52 soldiers come back on American soil, it will not be when the 06:56 prodigals return home. 06:58 The greatest comeback will be when the trumpet is going to 07:02 sound and Jesus comes back in the cloud. 07:07 When the Lord himself shall descend from heaven 07:10 with a shout. 07:12 When the voice of the archangel, the trump of God, 07:14 and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are 07:17 alive remain to be caught up together with him in the 07:20 clouds to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we 07:23 ever be with the Lord. 07:24 This, my friends, is ultimate comeback. 07:28 The second coming of Jesus. 07:31 Yes, he's coming back. 07:34 No more crying, no more dying, no more sickness, no more 07:39 pain, no more cancer, no more arthritis, no more high blood 07:44 pressure, no more trials, no more tests, no more tears. 07:48 Somebody say, no more tuition. 07:50 Can somebody say, no more. 07:58 The former things are going to be passed away and all things 08:03 are going to become new. 08:06 Jesus is going to make a comeback. 08:09 Two thousand years ago my Lord, my Savior, my Shield, my 08:16 Buckler, my Life, my Salvation, my Jesus has just 08:22 ascended back to heaven to be with the Father. 08:24 His disciples, the record says, are troubled 08:27 by his leaving. 08:28 They don't fully understand his ascension and so they ask 08:31 in Acts, Chapter 1:6, "Lord, wilt thou at this time restore 08:36 again the kingdom to Israel?" 08:38 But keep in mind, friends, who Jesus is. 08:41 The fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies of the 08:43 messiah, the anointed one who was to rule the earth from 08:47 Jerusalem unto the restored throne of David, they want to 08:51 know if Jesus plans to initiate this kingdom 08:55 and rule right now. 08:57 The disciples didn't yet understand the nature of 08:59 Christ's kingdom. 09:00 Jesus had not yet promised the sword of restoration 09:03 they were anticipating. 09:04 Christ does not give a direct answer to the 09:07 disciples' question. 09:08 But instead, Christ directs them to the future work 09:11 that they must do. 09:12 He gives them instructions to coincide with the great 09:15 commission found in Matthew 28:19-20, to "Go ye therefore, 09:18 and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name 09:22 of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 09:24 teaching them to observe all things, whatsoever I have 09:26 commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the 09:29 end of the world." He then goes on in Acts, Chapter 1 09:32 and says, I will not leave you comfortless because the 09:35 Holy Ghost is coming. 09:37 Acts 1:8 says, "But ye shall receive power, after that the 09:41 Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto 09:45 me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, 09:47 and unto the uttermost parts of the earth." In the text 09:50 Jesus tells his disciples to get ready for the move of the 09:56 Holy Ghost, get ready for the Holy Ghost to come. 09:59 Get ready, because the gospel is about to be preached. 10:02 The sick will be healed, the dead will be raised, the blind 10:06 will see, miracles will be wrought, and thousands will be 10:11 baptized in the name of the Father, the Son 10:13 and the Holy Ghost. 10:14 Now, let me be clear. 10:16 I'm a fifth-generation Seventh-Day Adventist 10:20 Christian, both paternally and maternally. 10:24 That means my mom and daddy and all their folk on both 10:28 sides are all Adventists. 10:29 Everybody matriculated here at Oakwood College, 10:31 now Oakwood University. 10:32 Understand, I tell people, you're not going to get more 10:36 Adventist than me. 10:41 I have eaten more Grillers and Vega-links than you. 10:47 I tell people all the time, some of you know, I said this 10:50 when I had a meeting with the church prior to my arrival as 10:52 senior pastor, I grew up in a home, Elder Thomas, 10:55 where I kept the Sabbath for 26 hours. 10:58 Of course, you know what I'm talking about. 11:03 That means you kept it for the 24-hour period, sunset Friday 11:06 to sunset Saturday, but, somebody understands, you kept 11:09 it an hour before the sunset came in and an hour after the 11:12 sunset went down because you were guarding the 11:15 edges of the Sabbath. 11:16 I wish I had a witness in this place. 11:20 But I've been an Adventist all my life and if there has been 11:23 a hindrance to the body of Christ it is not tapping into 11:28 the full power we have in God. 11:30 I don't know if you know it or not, but we are sitting 11:34 on a ton of dynamite. 11:37 We are sitting on a ton of power. 11:40 What am I talking about? 11:40 Let me remind you, when Jesus got up at Calvary, you will 11:44 remember that he was crucified, he did die, he did 11:47 rest in the grave on the Sabbath day according to the 11:49 commandments, and he did get up. 11:52 But when he got up, the Bible says he got up with all power, 11:56 and because he got up with all power in his hands there was a 11:59 transfer of that power from Christ to us. 12:03 Ellen White in the testimony says, the fullness of divine 12:06 power has been imparted to God's people that they might 12:08 impart to others like enjoin refreshing. 12:11 So in case you didn't know, we got power. 12:14 We've got Holy Ghost power. 12:16 What is this power? 12:17 Acts, chapter 1 opens by telling us of Jesus' transfer 12:20 of power to his disciples and his subsequent 12:23 ascension into heaven. 12:24 This power in verse 8 refers to God's power to exercise 12:27 his strength and his authority in our lives. 12:31 I've learned over my life that God can strengthen and 12:35 energize those who put their trust in him. 12:38 God is the source, my friends. 12:40 Not you, no me, but God is the source. 12:44 That means that you and me, we can't fight the devil 12:47 in our own strength. 12:48 I'm convinced that's why some people give up because they 12:51 fight the devil in their own strength. 12:55 But Paul says in Ephesians 6:10, 12:57 be strong in the Lord and the power of, not your 12:59 might, but his might. 13:00 The source of our strength is God. 13:03 The source of our strength is Jesus the Christ. 13:06 The source of our strength is the Holy Ghost. 13:09 But not only the source of our strength, but the scope 13:12 of our strength. 13:13 When a believer's faith is in Christ Jesus and God, then the 13:15 Lord's power becomes the power of that believer and when we 13:17 as a church grasp this truth, that we are as strong as that 13:21 in which we trust, we will revolutionize the world. 13:27 Let me see if I can help you understand this. 13:31 If you trust in yourself, you are as strong as you are. 13:34 But when you put your trust in God, you are 13:42 as strong as he is. 13:43 Are you hearing what I'm saying? 13:44 Let me illustrate it this way. I cannot fly. 13:48 I know my last name is Byrd, but I cannot fly. 13:53 I tried it as a child. 13:54 You know, some of you know how you jumped off of something 13:57 talking about, I know I can fly. 13:58 You knocked your head on the way down. 14:00 Do I have a witness in this place? 14:02 I learned as a little boy that the law of gravity is real. 14:07 What goes up must come down. 14:10 And so I cannot fly. 14:13 But when I put myself in an airplane and yield to its 14:19 power suddenly I have the ability to soar 36,000 14:23 feet in the air. 14:25 I cannot run 70 miles per hour. 14:29 I can run fast but not 70 miles per hour. 14:31 But when I get it my car and yield to its power then 14:34 suddenly I have the ability to achieve speeds that I could 14:37 never achieve on my own. 14:39 And so it is when my faith is in God and my faith is in his 14:44 power, then his strength becomes my strength, his power 14:47 becomes my power. 14:50 That's why the Bible says in Ephesians 3:20 that those who 14:55 live by faith, it says, "Now unto him who is able to do 14:59 exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, 15:05 according to the power that worketh in us." Because 15:08 greater is he that is in us, that is in the world. 15:11 Because understand I learned in math right here. 15:13 Dr. Blake knows what I'm talking about. 15:15 I learned in math, if you have a greater than you must have 15:18 a less than. 15:19 Somebody may get that. 15:20 I said, if you have a greater than, greater is he that 15:23 is in me than he that is in the world. 15:24 If you have a greater than, you must have a less than. 15:26 So whoever the greater is inside of you, then he that is 15:29 in the world is less than whoever is inside of you. 15:36 And the greater than he that is in you is the Holy Ghost. 15:38 Do I have a witness in this place? 15:40 The text continues. 15:41 Verse 9, Acts 1, "And when he had spoken these things, while 15:45 they beheld, he was taken up." 15:48 He was taken where, everybody? Up. 15:50 "And a cloud received him out of their" 15:52 what? Sight. 15:53 What a sight this must have been, seeing him 15:57 in whom they had believed. 15:58 He in whose company they had been. 16:01 He to whose tender, loving words they had listened. 16:03 He to whom they had forsaken with the hour 16:06 of his suffering had come. 16:07 He who had died on a cross, reckoned among evil doers. 16:10 He who rested in the tomb and was raised from the dead 16:12 by the power of God. 16:13 He would had been with them in a glorified human body and 16:16 manifested himself as resurrection of glory and 16:18 power was now taken up in a cloud and received 16:21 out of their sight. 16:23 Verse 10: "And while they looked stedfastly toward 16:26 heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them, 16:29 in white apparel. 16:32 Which also said," verse 11, "Ye men of Galilee, why stand 16:34 ye gazing up into heaven." 16:38 This same Jesus, wish I had time, this same Jesus which is 16:46 taken up into heaven shall also come in like manner just 16:50 as he has seen them go into heaven. 16:54 In other words, the angels said, look, fear not, because 16:56 this same Jesus is going to come back just like he left. 17:01 This same Jesus who locked the lion's jaw down in Daniel's 17:07 den is going to come back. 17:08 This same Jesus who provided air conditioning to those 17:13 three Hebrew boys is going to come back. 17:15 This same Jesus who made the Red Sea a dry highway 17:19 is going to come back. 17:20 This same Jesus who raised Lazarus from the dead 17:25 is going to come back. 17:25 This same Jesus who healed your afflicted body 17:29 is going to come back. 17:30 This same Jesus, when you were down to the last day of 17:35 registration at Oakwood and you went to the student 17:38 accounts office the day before and learned you had a balance 17:41 of $5,000. 17:42 You didn't think you were going to get into school this 17:44 semester, but some way or another you just happened to 17:45 go back to student accounts. 17:47 You asked them for your balance just to see if there 17:50 had been a change or a computer glitch and you 17:53 discover that your balance has been paid in full by an 17:57 anonymous donor. 18:00 Jesus has made a way out of no way. 18:04 This same Jesus is coming back. 18:06 Maybe you don't know what I'm talking about. 18:08 This applies to you. 18:09 You were at the checkout line at Publix or Kroger, 18:12 you had $20 to your name. 18:14 Ever been there? 18:15 You just needed to get a few things. 18:17 You put these items in your grocery cart, place your items 18:21 on the conveyor belt and your prayer, Lord, let me 18:24 have enough money. 18:27 You don't know if you're going to have enough money. 18:30 You're in the grocery line. 18:31 People are behind you and they're mean mugging you. 18:34 You don't want to be embarrassed. 18:37 The cashier rings up your groceries. 18:40 You have $20 to your name. 18:41 The cashier rings up your groceries, looks at you 18:44 and your total is, that'll be $19.99. 18:47 This same Jesus is coming back. 18:57 Hallelujah, somebody. 19:04 Could human language make it more clear? 19:08 It seems almost impossible that anyone could not grasp 19:10 the simple fact of his return. 19:11 The Bible, the text teaches that it will be personal, 19:15 this same Jesus. 19:16 That's personal, that's not an imposter, this same Jesus. 19:21 That the comeback would be visible. 19:23 The text say we have seen him go, this same Jesus. 19:26 It will be in the clouds because the text says, a cloud 19:29 received him, this same Jesus. 19:32 It will be certain because this text says, this same 19:36 Jesus shall come in like manner as we have seen 19:38 him go. This is what the life of a Christian is all about. 19:43 Looking forward to Jesus' comeback. 19:46 Looking forward to Jesus' second coming. 19:49 That's why we come in here, we sing our songs, we pray our 19:52 prayers, we give our testimonies, we listen to the 19:55 sermons because we want to be ready when Jesus comes back. 19:58 You don't believe me? 20:00 The name Seventh-Day Adventist espouses reality for 20:03 understanding that Seventh-Day Adventists, we're followers of 20:06 Christ, we're not a cult, we are a Christian community 20:11 that celebrates Christ. 20:13 The virtue of our name, Seventh-Day Adventist, we keep 20:16 the seventh day Sabbath holy and we are awaiting his 20:19 advent, the second coming, the second advent, the comeback 20:23 of Jesus Christ. 20:25 I am proud to be a Seventh-Day Adventist Christian. 20:31 This is what we look forward to. 20:33 And eyes have not seen, either ears have heard the things 20:37 that God has prepared for them. 20:38 So, get ready for the comeback. 20:40 I said get ready for the comeback. 20:43 But, Pastor Byrd, when is the comeback? 20:47 Let me teach you just a little bit because I'm finding we 20:50 think people know what we believe, but I'm learning in 20:53 my experience that people don't know what we believe. 20:55 So, I think we need to know what we believe, 20:58 why we believe it and where it's found. 21:00 When is the comeback? 21:03 Go to the book of Matthew. 21:04 What book did I say, everybody? 21:06 Matthew, chapter 24. 21:06 If you have your iPhone or whatever, look it up there. 21:09 Matthew 24 and I'm coming out of the King James version for 21:12 our viewing audience. 21:13 Matthew 24:36, the Word of God says, "But of that day and 21:18 hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, 21:22 but my Father only. 21:23 But as in the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming 21:25 of the Son of man be. 21:26 For as in the days that were before the flood they were 21:28 eating and drinking, marrying and giving in" what? 21:30 "Marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and 21:34 knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so 21:37 shall also the coming of the Son of man," what, everybody? 21:40 "Be." Verse 42: "Watch therefore: 21:43 for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 21:45 Verse 44: "Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an 21:47 hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh." I can't give 21:55 you the exact date of the comeback, but I know 22:00 it's real soon. 22:01 I know the comeback is real soon because Matthew 24 22:03 lets me know the signs of his coming. 22:05 Matthew 24:3: "And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, 22:07 the disciples came unto him privately, saying, "Tell us, 22:09 when shall these things be? 22:10 And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of 22:14 the world?' And Jesus answered and said unto them, "Take heed 22:18 that no man," what, everybody? 22:20 Take heed that no man what? 22:22 "For many shall come in my name, saying I am Christ; and 22:28 shall deceive many." You and I both know somebody walks 22:31 on this earth and says they are Christ, they are a boldfaced 22:33 liar from the pits of hell because the Bible just said in 22:36 Acts 1 that when Jesus left he left in the air which means 22:39 he's coming back in the air, his feet will never touch this 22:42 ground and you shall have war, rumors of war. 22:47 See that ye be not what? 22:48 Troubled. 22:49 For there all these things must come to pass but the end 22:53 is not yet for nations shall rise against what? 22:56 Kingdom against what? 22:57 And there shall be famines and pestilence, and earthquakes in 23:00 divers places, meaning divers or different places. 23:02 All these are the beginning of what, everybody? 23:05 "Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall 23:08 kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my 23:09 name's sake." That's why, understand, that in the cause 23:12 of Christ sometimes you're going to be hated on. 23:14 Jesus said that would happen just before his comeback. 23:17 Keep on reading. 23:18 The Word of God says in verse 10: "And then shall many be 23:20 offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate 23:22 one another. 23:23 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 23:33 And because iniquity shall abound, the love 23:36 of many shall wax cold. 23:37 But he that shall endure unto the end." Thank you, Jesus. 23:40 "He that shall endure unto the end, the same," not might, 23:42 not perhaps, not possibly, "But the same shall be saved. 23:45 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the 23:48 worldÖand then shall the end come." I don't know exactly 23:52 when he's coming back, but I do know he's 23:54 coming back soon. 23:55 I know that when Jesus comes back it will be in the same 23:57 manner in which he left. 23:59 He left in a cloud, will return in a cloud. 24:02 Left in the air, will return in the air. 24:04 His feet will not touch the earth. 24:06 The Bible also lets me know in Revelation, Chapter 1:7, that 24:09 when he makes his comeback every eye, every living eye, 24:11 is going to see him. 24:14 Which means those in Huntsville, we're going 24:17 to see him. 24:18 Those back I left in Atlanta, we going to see him then, too. 24:22 Those in New York and L.A. 24:23 are going to see him. 24:25 But Jesus is not a national God, he's an 24:28 international God. 24:29 Those in Africa are going to see him. 24:32 Those in Asia are going to see him. 24:33 Those in Antigua are going to see him. 24:35 Those in Jamaica are going to see him. 24:37 Every eye is going to see him. 24:40 Christianity gets excited about his comeback. 24:44 But some within the ranks of Christianity have made a 24:48 mistake about his comeback. 24:50 Let's be clear. 24:52 When Jesus makes his comeback there'll be four primary 24:55 groups on earth. 24:59 Notice the word primary. 25:00 Four what kind of groups? 25:03 Now understand, I'll teach you a bit. 25:05 Four primary groups. 25:07 Because Revelation 1:7 says that those who even pierced 25:10 him will see him, because Ellen White said there will be 25:13 a special resurrection for those who pierced Jesus. 25:18 But there will be four primary groups when Jesus comes back 25:21 for the second time at his comeback. 25:24 Group number one. 25:25 Everybody say the righteous dead. 25:27 Come on, say it like you mean it. 25:30 Say righteous dead. 25:31 I'm getting you ready for evangelism, righteous dead. 25:35 1 Thessalonians 4:16: "For the Lord himself shall descend 25:38 from heaven with a" what? 25:39 "Shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump 25:41 of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise," what? First. 25:45 When Jesus comes back for his second coming, the Bible is 25:49 clear that the dead in Christ shall rise what? First. 25:51 Group number two. 25:54 The righteous living. 25:55 Group number one is the righteous what? Dead. 25:59 Group number two is the Living. 26:05 Let's keep reading. 26:07 1 Thessalonians 4:17: "Then we which are alive and remain 26:09 shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to 26:12 meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be" what? 26:19 Come on, so shall we ever be with what? With the Lord. 26:23 The Breath of Life gift offer this week is "Surprised by 26:26 Love" by pastor and international speaker 26:28 Elizabeth Viera Talbot. 26:30 Find out how people in the Bible were surprised 26:32 by God's love. 26:33 Adam and Eve were surprised, the deceitful serpent and the 26:36 Pharisees were surprised. 26:37 It surprised the disciples and even the heavenly angels. 26:41 And God's surprises of love continue all around us today. 26:44 Join with Elizabeth as you get a fresh view of the greatest 26:47 story ever told, from the kidnapping of God's children 26:50 to the rescue, from the ransom to the reunion. 26:53 "Surprised by Love"is yours for a gift of $5 or more. 26:56 Call our toll-free number 877-BOL-OFFER. 27:01 That's 877-265-6333. 27:05 Please have your credit card ready when you call. 27:07 Or you may write us to request your copy. 27:10 Just send a check to Breath of Life, 27:11 P.O.
