Announcer: JOIN US NOW AS
00:00:11.60\00:00:16.63
PASTOR PEARSON CONTINUES
HIS MESSAGE ENTITLED "LOOK UP."
00:00:16.63\00:00:19.90
(theme music) SO I
TELL YOU THAT WHILE I'M NOT
00:00:19.90\00:00:28.16
A PREACHER WHO BELIEVES IN PIE-
IN-THE-SKY, BY-AND-BY, I BELIEVE
00:00:28.16\00:00:31.03
THAT JESUS BLESSES AT ALL TIMES.
00:00:31.03\00:00:34.23
BUT THE CONSUMMATE HOPE OF
EVERY CHRISTIAN IS TO SEE JESUS.
00:00:34.23\00:00:40.96
IN FACT, ONE OF THE LAST
TEXTS THAT I READ TONIGHT
00:00:40.96\00:00:42.80
WILL BE THAT VERY THING.
00:00:42.80\00:00:44.10
NOW I'VE GOT AN
EXPERIENCE THE POWER MOMENT.
00:00:44.10\00:00:46.23
IT'S IN FIRST THESSALONIANS.
00:00:46.23\00:00:48.13
I HAVE ASKED GOD TO
ALLOW ME TO PREACH THIS WITHOUT
00:00:48.13\00:00:51.16
EXTRANEOUS NOISE, BECAUSE
I'VE GOT THINGS THAT I COULD
00:00:51.16\00:00:55.70
SAY WHILE I'M READING THIS.
00:00:55.70\00:00:57.90
FIRST THESSALONIANS, CHAPTER 4.
00:00:57.90\00:01:01.03
AND THIS IS AN
EXPERIENCE THE POWER MOMENT.
00:01:01.03\00:01:03.90
YOU KNOW WHEN WE HAVE
THEM, IT GETS EXCITING.
00:01:03.90\00:01:08.36
I'M STARTING WITH VERSE 13.
00:01:08.36\00:01:11.73
BUT I WOULD NOT HAVE
YOU TO BE IGNORANT BRETHREN,
00:01:11.73\00:01:16.03
CONCERNING THEM WHICH ARE
ASLEEP THAT YE SORROW NOT, EVEN
00:01:16.03\00:01:20.00
AS OTHERS WHICH HAVE NO HOPE.
00:01:20.00\00:01:24.03
FOR IF WE BELIEVE THAT JESUS
DIED AND ROSE AGAIN, EVEN SO,
00:01:24.03\00:01:31.16
THEM ALSO WHICH SLEEP IN
JESUS WILL GOD BRING WITH HIM.
00:01:31.16\00:01:37.63
FOR THIS WE SAY TO YOU, BY THE
WORD OF THE LORD, THAT WE WHICH
00:01:37.63\00:01:42.50
ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN UNTO
THE COMING OF THE LORD SHALL NOT
00:01:42.50\00:01:47.86
PREVENT THEM WHICH ARE ASLEEP.
00:01:47.86\00:01:51.46
I'VE GOT TO PAUSE
JUST TO CALM DOWN.
00:01:51.46\00:01:57.70
OKAY.
00:01:57.70\00:02:00.46
FOR THIS WE SAY UNTO
YOU BY THE WORD OF THE
00:02:00.46\00:02:03.93
LORD, I GOT TO DO IT AGAIN.
00:02:03.93\00:02:05.63
WE WHICH ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN
UNTO THE COMING OF THE LORD
00:02:05.63\00:02:08.66
SHALL NOT PREVENT
THEM WHICH ARE ASLEEP.
00:02:08.66\00:02:10.90
FOR THE LORD HIMSELF,
SHALL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WITH A
00:02:10.90\00:02:16.96
SHOUT, WITH A VOICE OF
THE ARCHANGEL, AND WITH THE
00:02:16.96\00:02:20.60
TRUMP OF GOD, AND THE DEAD
IN CHRIST SHALL RISE FIRST.
00:02:20.60\00:02:36.23
SO WHEN JESUS COMES,
THOSE WhO HAVE DIED IN CHRIST,
00:02:36.23\00:02:40.40
SHALL RISE FIRST.
00:02:40.40\00:02:41.80
THERE'S A PLOT OR TWO OUT
IN INGLEWOOD, CALIFORNIA WHERE
00:02:41.80\00:02:46.53
MY MOTHER AND NOW MY
FATHER ARE ASLEEP IN JESUS.
00:02:46.53\00:02:52.76
BUT THIS TEXT SAYS THAT
WE WHO ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN
00:02:52.76\00:02:57.50
SHALL NOT PREVENT THEM.
00:02:57.50\00:03:00.30
THE LORD SAYS, I
MYSELF WILL COME.
00:03:00.30\00:03:03.63
DO YOU SEE IT ?
00:03:03.63\00:03:04.70
THERE ARE SOME
THINGS HE WILL NOT DELEGATE.
00:03:04.70\00:03:07.63
SO HERE'S WHAT IT SAYS.
00:03:07.63\00:03:08.83
VERSE 17.
00:03:08.83\00:03:10.23
THEN WE, WHICH ARE ALIVE
AND REMAIN, SHALL BE CAUGHT UP
00:03:10.23\00:03:15.30
TOGETHER WITH THEM IN
THE CLOUDS TO MEET THE LORD
00:03:15.30\00:03:18.83
IN THE AIR AND SO SHALL
WE EVER BE WITH THE LORD.
00:03:18.83\00:03:26.46
WHEREFORE, COMFORT ONE
ANOTHER WITH THESE WORDS.
00:03:26.46\00:03:29.20
IF ANYBODY IN YOUR FAMILY HAS
DIED WITH FAITH IN JESUS, THE
00:03:29.20\00:03:35.23
BIBLE SAYS THAT THEY WILL BE
RESURRECTED WHEN JESUS COMES.
00:03:35.23\00:03:40.63
WE WILL NOT PREVENT THEM.
00:03:40.63\00:03:42.33
WE WILL NOT GO BEFORE THEM.
00:03:42.33\00:03:43.73
I'VE HEARD WONDERFUL GOSPEL
SONGS THAT SOUNDED SO BEAUTIFUL,
00:03:43.73\00:03:47.53
BUT THEY WERE BAD THEOLOGY.
00:03:47.53\00:03:49.46
IF YOU GET
THERE BEFORE I DO. . .
00:03:49.46\00:03:59.86
THE BIBLE SAYS, THE
DEAD WILL RISE, THE DEAD IN
00:03:59.86\00:04:02.30
CHRIST WILL RISE FIRST.
00:04:02.30\00:04:04.40
THEN WE, WHICH ARE ALIVE, WILL
BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM.
00:04:04.40\00:04:08.83
THE GREATEST FAMILY REUNION
THAT THE UNIVERSE HAS EVER
00:04:08.83\00:04:11.93
KNOWN, AND SO SHALL
WE EVER BE WITH THE LORD.
00:04:11.93\00:04:15.06
DO YOU SEE WHY I'M
EXCITED ABOUT JESUS COMING ?
00:04:15.06\00:04:18.80
THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT HAVE
HAPPENED SINCE MY MOTHER AND
00:04:18.80\00:04:21.76
MY FATHER DIED THAT I
THINK THEY DESERVED TO SEE.
00:04:21.76\00:04:25.26
MY MOM WOULD HAVE BEEN
SWEPT AWAY BY THIS THING
00:04:25.26\00:04:28.83
THAT'S HAPPENING NOW.
00:04:28.83\00:04:29.86
I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHE'D SAY.
00:04:29.86\00:04:30.96
MY DAD WOULD BE
COMPLETELY TORN APART BY IT.
00:04:30.96\00:04:35.56
I DON'T KNOW WHETHER GOD WILL
HAVE VIDEO TO PLAY FOR THEM.
00:04:35.56\00:04:39.60
BUT I WISH THEY COULD SEE IT.
00:04:39.60\00:04:41.03
BUT I TELL YOU THIS.
00:04:41.03\00:04:43.00
IF YOU SIT HERE TONIGHT THINKING
THAT THE EARTH WILL FIZZLE OUT
00:04:43.00\00:04:49.76
IN NUCLEAR WINTER, THAT
THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BECOME SO
00:04:49.76\00:04:54.76
POISONED THAT WE CAN'T BREATHE,
THAT EVERYBODY WILL HAVE TO
00:04:54.76\00:04:59.30
WEAR GAS MASKS AND THEN
DIE TOGETHER IN SOME CLUMP;
00:04:59.30\00:05:03.80
IF YOU THINK THAT THE OZONE
LAYER WILL BE WIPED OUT AND THE
00:05:03.80\00:05:08.16
SUN WILL HEAT US SO MUCH THAT
WE'LL DIE IN HEAT THAT'S TOO
00:05:08.16\00:05:12.03
HIGH FOR US TO HANDLE, IF YOU
THINK MAN'S INHUMANITIES TO MAN
00:05:12.03\00:05:15.73
WILL CONTINUE TO BE WORSE AND
WORSE UNTIL WE ANIHILATE EACH
00:05:15.73\00:05:21.16
OTHER; IF YOU THINK THAT PEOPLE
WILL BECOME ANGRY WITH THEIR
00:05:21.16\00:05:24.16
VEHICLES OR THEIR AIRCRAFT
OR THEIR SEACRAFT AND TAKE EACH
00:05:24.16\00:05:28.26
OTHER OUT, YOU ARE WRONG.
00:05:28.26\00:05:32.83
BEFORE ANY OF THAT CAN
HAPPEN, JESUS IS GOING TO COME.
00:05:32.83\00:05:44.16
MATTHEW, CHAPTER 24.
00:05:44.16\00:05:45.63
I GOT TO READ THIS ONE.
00:05:45.63\00:05:46.66
I'VE GOT SOME STUFF I CAN'T
READ, BUT I'LL JUST LET YOU GO
00:05:46.66\00:05:49.63
HOME AND TAKE CARE OF THAT.
00:05:49.63\00:05:50.60
MATTHEW, CHAPTER 24.
00:05:50.60\00:05:52.10
IF YOU DON'T--READ
MATTHEW 24 WHEN YOU GO HOME.
00:05:52.10\00:05:56.73
NOW YOU WILL FIND IN MATTHEW
24 THAT THE DISCIPLES WENT
00:05:56.73\00:06:00.86
TO JESUS AND SAID,
THEY ASKED THE QUESTION THAT
00:06:00.86\00:06:03.36
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK.
00:06:03.36\00:06:06.20
CAN YOU STOP, WELL, CONTINUE
TO LOOK FOR MATTHEW 24, BUT
00:06:06.20\00:06:10.00
CAN YOU MULTITASK ?
00:06:10.00\00:06:13.16
I'M SURE ALL THE LADIES CAN.
00:06:13.16\00:06:14.60
YOU SAY THE MEN CAN'T.
00:06:14.60\00:06:22.40
HERE IS WHAT I WANT TO
SAY ABOUT THIS WONDERFUL TEXT.
00:06:22.40\00:06:27.66
MATTHEW, CHAPTER 24.
00:06:27.66\00:06:29.30
LET'S READ IT FIRST.
00:06:29.30\00:06:31.03
AND VERSE 14.
00:06:31.03\00:06:33.00
AND HERE'S WHAT IT SAYS:
AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM
00:06:33.00\00:06:38.33
SHALL BE PREACHED IN
ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS
00:06:38.33\00:06:41.93
UNTO ALL NATIONS AND
THEN SHALL THE END COME.
00:06:41.93\00:06:48.33
NOW, THERE ARE PEOPLE
WHO GET UPSET ABOUT THIS.
00:06:48.33\00:06:51.50
OH, NO.
00:06:51.50\00:06:53.66
THE END IS COMING.
00:06:53.66\00:06:55.90
WELL, LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.
00:06:55.90\00:06:57.16
IF THIS IS YOUR IDEA OF
GREAT LIVING, THAT MEANS THAT
00:06:57.16\00:07:04.00
YOU DWELL IN THAT
GREAT EGYPTIAN RIVER, DENIAL.
00:07:04.00\00:07:16.63
THIS ISN'T IT.
00:07:16.63\00:07:19.60
NOT FOR ME.
00:07:19.60\00:07:21.63
LOOK, I'VE BEEN BLESSED.
00:07:21.63\00:07:23.63
I'VE NEVER BEEN WEALTHY,
BUT GOD HAS GIVEN, ACCORDING
00:07:23.63\00:07:27.43
TO WHAT HE SAYS IN THE
BIBLE, SOME THINGS ABOVE THAT I
00:07:27.43\00:07:29.73
COULD ASK OR IMAGINE.
00:07:29.73\00:07:32.60
SO FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES
IN MY LIFE, I'VE HAD A BIG JOB.
00:07:32.60\00:07:37.40
THIS ISN'T IT.
00:07:37.40\00:07:39.03
THIS JOB IS NOT ABOUT MONEY.
00:07:39.03\00:07:41.20
THIS JOB IS ABOUT JOY.
00:07:41.20\00:07:45.53
LET ME TELL YOU.
00:07:45.53\00:07:47.66
ALL THOSE BIG-TIME PREACHERS
COULD BUY AND SELL ME BEFORE
00:07:47.66\00:07:49.86
BREAKFAST, BUT THEY ARE
NOT HAPPIER THAN I AM, BECAUSE
00:07:49.86\00:07:53.86
I'VE GOT PEACE THAT
SURPASSES UNDERSTANDING.
00:07:53.86\00:07:58.96
MY JOB IS NOT ABOUT
THE SIZE OF MY PAYCHECK.
00:07:58.96\00:08:01.90
IT'S THAT I ENJOY IT.
00:08:01.90\00:08:03.86
BUT THIS TEXT SAYS THAT IF
YOU ARE PART OF THE PROCESS
00:08:03.86\00:08:08.03
THAT SPREADS THE GOSPEL
TO EVERY KINDRED AND NATION
00:08:08.03\00:08:13.50
AND TONGUE AND PEOPLE,
YOU ARE HELPING TO BRING THE
00:08:13.50\00:08:16.66
DAY WHEN THE END WILL COME.
00:08:16.66\00:08:20.90
AND WHEN THE END
COMES, THAT'S NOT A BAD THING.
00:08:20.90\00:08:23.93
THAT'S A GOOD THING,
BECAUSE BEFORE THE END COMES,
00:08:23.93\00:08:28.66
JESUS WILL COME.
00:08:28.66\00:08:30.96
AND I TELL YOU TONIGHT, THAT
YOU ARE NOW PART OF THE PROCESS.
00:08:30.96\00:08:36.00
GUESS WHAT ?
00:08:36.00\00:08:37.16
YOU'VE BEEN GOING HOME.
00:08:37.16\00:08:38.20
I DON'T HAVE TO ASK YOU.
00:08:38.20\00:08:39.20
I KNOW YOU HAVE.
00:08:39.20\00:08:40.76
YOU'VE BEEN GOING HOME
TELLING YOUR FAMILY AND
00:08:40.76\00:08:43.03
FRIENDS WHAT WE'VE
BEEN READING FROM THE BIBLE.
00:08:43.03\00:08:45.00
SO YOU'RE PART OF IT.
00:08:45.00\00:08:45.93
AND WE ARE
DOWNLINKED ALL AROUND.
00:08:45.93\00:08:48.33
I CAN'T KEEP UP WITH
THE NUMBERS OF PLACES WHERE
00:08:48.33\00:08:51.13
WE'RE DOWNLINKED.
00:08:51.13\00:08:52.50
BUT I CAN TELL YOU THIS.
00:08:52.50\00:08:54.43
WE ARE PART OF THE PROCESS.
00:08:54.43\00:08:56.46
BECAUSE ALL PEOPLE NEED TO
KNOW IS THAT GOOD NEWS IS COMING
00:08:56.46\00:09:03.40
AND THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT
JESUS IS ABOUT TO COME AND
00:09:03.40\00:09:07.90
REDEEM THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.
00:09:07.90\00:09:10.96
AND THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.
00:09:10.96\00:09:12.80
NOW, LET ME GET TO
HEBREWS, CHAPTER 9.
00:09:12.80\00:09:15.70
I'M READING THIS FROM THE NIV.
00:09:15.70\00:09:17.26
THAT'S WHY I'M
NOT LOOKING IT UP.
00:09:17.26\00:09:19.16
HEBREWS, CHAPTER 9 AND VERSE 28.
00:09:19.16\00:09:20.20
HERE'S WHAT IT SAYS.
00:09:20.20\00:09:21.70
SO CHRIST WOULD
SACRIFICE ONCE TO TAKE AWAY THE
00:09:21.70\00:09:24.23
SINS OF MANY PEOPLE.
00:09:24.23\00:09:26.26
AND HE WILL APPEAR A SECOND
TIME, NOT TO BEAR SIN, BUT
00:09:26.26\00:09:30.83
TO BRING SALVATION TO
THOSE WHO ARE WAITING FOR HIM.
00:09:30.83\00:09:34.43
I NEED TO REMIND
YOU OF SOMETHING.
00:09:34.43\00:09:37.16
AND THAT IS THIS: JESUS IS NOT
COMING BACK FOR PEOPLE WHO IN
00:09:37.16\00:09:43.40
AND OF THEMSELVES ARE PERFECT.
00:09:43.40\00:09:48.53
WE READ IT TO YOU
NOW, MORE THAN ONCE.
00:09:48.53\00:09:51.40
JESUS IS COMING
BACK FOR FAMILY MEMBERS.
00:09:51.40\00:09:54.86
THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN BORN
AGAIN INTO THE FAMILY OF GOD.
00:09:54.86\00:10:00.16
NOT BECAUSE YOU'RE PERFECT.
00:10:00.16\00:10:03.00
NO ONE ON THIS EARTH IS PERFECT.
00:10:03.00\00:10:05.10
THE ONLY PERFECT SERVANT
OF GOD LIVED AND WAS CRUCIFIED
00:10:05.10\00:10:09.93
AND WENT TO SIT AT THE
RIGHT HAND OF HIS FATHER.
00:10:09.93\00:10:12.66
SO TONIGHT THE BLESSED HOPE IS
THAT ORDINARY PEOPLE WHO ALLOW
00:10:12.66\00:10:20.30
THEMSELVES TO BE ADOPTED INTO
THE FAMILY OF GOD, WHO ALLOW
00:10:20.30\00:10:25.30
THE DIVINE NATURE TO BE PLACED
IN US, BY THE BIRTH, THE REBIRTH
00:10:25.30\00:10:30.50
THROUGH WATER AND BLOOD, BY
THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:10:30.50\00:10:34.73
YOU REMEMBER.
00:10:34.73\00:10:35.66
WE DESCRIBED IT.
00:10:35.66\00:10:36.56
WIND BLOWING.
00:10:36.56\00:10:37.63
YOU CAN'T SEE IT.
00:10:37.63\00:10:38.73
THAT'S HOW IT HAPPENS.
00:10:38.73\00:10:40.00
BUT THE WIND BLOWS A LITTLE,
A LITTLE, A LITTLE, AND THEN
00:10:40.00\00:10:43.16
A LOT, AND YOU ARE
CHANGED FROM WHO YOU USED TO BE.
00:10:43.16\00:10:47.60
YOUR WILL, YOUR ATTACHMENTS,
YOUR APPETITES, YOUR ACTIVITIES
00:10:47.60\00:10:55.73
ARE MODERATED BECAUSE YOU WANT
TO BE LIKE YOUR FATHER, YOUR BIG
00:10:55.73\00:11:00.93
BROTHER AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:11:00.93\00:11:06.40
SO, PEOPLE IN HEAVEN
ARE NOT GOING TO BE PEOPLE
00:11:06.40\00:11:09.13
WHO WERE ALREADY PERFECT.
00:11:09.13\00:11:10.40
THEY'LL BE PEOPLE LIKE ZACCHAEUS
WHO GOT A CALL TO COME DOWN
00:11:10.40\00:11:16.80
OUT OF THE TREE, AND
JESUS WENT HOME WITH HIM.
00:11:16.80\00:11:20.36
AND HIS PRESENCE IN THE
HOUSE MADE THE DIFFERENCE.
00:11:20.36\00:11:24.60
THE COMING OF CHRIST IS
GOING TO BE AMAZING BECAUSE YOU
00:11:24.60\00:11:26.83
WILL NOT HAVE TO SEE IT
ON ANY TELEVISION SCREEN.
00:11:26.83\00:11:30.53
REVELATIONS, CHAPTER 1 AND VERSE
7 SAYS, EVERY EYE SHALL SEE HIM.
00:11:30.53\00:11:36.86
IN FACT, JUST BEFORE
THAT LOOK AT VERSE, THE
00:11:36.86\00:11:39.70
VERSE PRECEDING IT.
00:11:39.70\00:11:40.70
VERSE SIX.
00:11:40.70\00:11:43.23
IF YOU HEARhTHAT JESUS
IS THERE, DON'T BELIEVE IT.
00:11:43.23\00:11:45.93
IF YOU HEAR THAT JESUS CAME A
CERTAIN PLACE, DON'T BELIEVE IT.
00:11:45.93\00:11:49.76
BECAUSE WHEN HE COMES, YOU
WON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT.
00:11:49.76\00:11:52.93
IN FACT, MATTHEW,
CHAPTER 24 AND VERSE 27.
00:11:52.93\00:11:56.66
MATTHEW, CHAPTER
24, AND VERSE 27.
00:11:56.66\00:12:00.20
AND I'M GOING TO WAR WITH
MY CLOCK, BUT I GOT SOMETHING
00:12:00.20\00:12:03.23
I'M GOING TO SHARE
WITH YOU BEFORE WE GO.
00:12:03.23\00:12:05.76
I'VE GOT ONE MORE
EXPERIENCE THE POWER MOMENT.
00:12:05.76\00:12:08.13
MATTHEW, CHAPTER
24, AND VERSE 27.
00:12:08.13\00:12:12.33
AND HERE'S WHAT IT SAYS.
00:12:12.33\00:12:14.30
IF I CAN HAVE, YES, FOR AS
THE LIGHTENING COMETH OUT OF THE
00:12:14.30\00:12:17.83
EAST, AND SHINETH EVEN
UNTO THE WEST, SO SHALL ALSO THE
00:12:17.83\00:12:22.63
COMING OF THE SON OF MAN BE.
00:12:22.63\00:12:24.40
SO, LOOK AT VERSE 26.
00:12:24.40\00:12:25.80
WHEREFORE, IF THEY SAY
UNTO YOU, BEHOLD HE IS IN THE
00:12:25.80\00:12:28.23
DESERT, GO NOT FORTH.
00:12:28.23\00:12:30.36
BEHOLD, HE IS IN SECRET
CHAMBERS, BELIEVE IT NOT.
00:12:30.36\00:12:33.66
BECAUSE NOBODY WILL HAVE TO
TELL YOU THAT JESUS IS COMING.
00:12:33.66\00:12:37.96
NOW HERE, I MUST SAY TO
YOU, IS THE DOWNSIDE FOR SOME
00:12:37.96\00:12:41.93
PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE AND HAVE
BEEN CONVINCED THAT THE COMING
00:12:41.93\00:12:47.20
OF CHRIST IS A BAD THING.
00:12:47.20\00:12:50.33
THE FACT IS THAT IN
MATTHEW, CHAPTER 24, IN VERSE 4,
00:12:50.33\00:12:54.03
VERSE 42, AND VERSE 44 WE
HAVE A TRIUMVIRATE OF WARNINGS.
00:12:54.03\00:13:01.10
AND THESE WARNINGS ARE TO
A SPECIFIC CLASS OF PEOPLE,
00:13:01.10\00:13:04.10
AND I'LL TELL YOU
EXACTLY WHO THEY ARE.
00:13:04.10\00:13:06.80
IT SAYS IN VERSE 4, TAKE HEED.
00:13:06.80\00:13:09.26
IT SAYS IN VERSE 42, WATCH.
00:13:09.26\00:13:11.96
IT SAYS IN VERSE 44, BE READY.
00:13:11.96\00:13:16.56
THIS CRISIS IS STEALING
GRADUALLY UPON US AS WE GO
00:13:16.56\00:13:20.46
ABOUT OUR DAILY ACTIVITIES.
00:13:20.46\00:13:22.50
AND THOSE WHO SINCERELY LOOK
FOR THE COMING OF CHRIST WILL
00:13:22.50\00:13:27.13
BE READY, BECAUSE WE
KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
00:13:27.13\00:13:31.80
IT SAYS THAT THOSE WHO LOVE
JESUS WILL BE ABLE TO TELL BY
00:13:31.80\00:13:36.96
THE SIGNS THAT HE IS COMING.
00:13:36.96\00:13:39.56
MATTHEW 24, VERSES 6 AND 7
SAYS THAT THERE WILL BE WARS
00:13:39.56\00:13:44.43
AND INTERNATIONAL TENSIONS.
00:13:44.43\00:13:47.36
HAVE WE GOT THAT ?
00:13:47.36\00:13:49.50
I DON'T WANT TO TALK
ABOUT THE POLITICAL ISSUES
00:13:49.50\00:13:51.76
SURROUNDING IRAQ.
00:13:51.76\00:13:53.33
WHETHER YOU WERE FOR IT
OR NOT, YOU MUST CONFESS THAT
00:13:53.33\00:13:56.26
IT HAS CHANGED OUR WORLD.
00:13:56.26\00:13:59.03
THIS, THIS STRANGE
CULTURAL CLASH WILL NOT GO AWAY.
00:13:59.03\00:14:06.30
IN FACT, IT HAS
ELEMENTS WITHIN IT THAT MAKE IT
00:14:06.30\00:14:09.96
LARGER THAN LIFE.
00:14:09.96\00:14:11.93
WE TOSS AROUND
THE WORD ARMAGEDDON.
00:14:11.93\00:14:15.16
WE HAVE USED IT AND OVERUSED
IT SO MUCH THAT WE HAVE DRAINED
00:14:15.16\00:14:19.30
ALL THE MEANING OUT OF IT.
00:14:19.30\00:14:20.36
BUT IT IS NOT A NORMAL WAR.
00:14:20.36\00:14:22.43
IT IS NOT A
PHYSICAL CONFLICT ONLY.
00:14:22.43\00:14:25.70
IT IS A CONFLICT
OF MAJOR PROPORTIONS.
00:14:25.70\00:14:28.26
IT IS A WAR BETWEEN GOOD
AND EVIL, OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
00:14:28.26\00:14:32.56
AGAINST WICKEDNESS.
00:14:32.56\00:14:36.40
AND WE MAY HAVE FINALLY COME
TO THE MOMENT WHEN WE ARE ON
00:14:36.40\00:14:39.00
THE BRINK OF THAT WAR.
00:14:39.00\00:14:42.03
THE BIBLE SAYS,
LUKE, CHAPTER 21, VERSE 11,
00:14:42.03\00:14:45.00
AND MARK 13, VERSES 7
AND 8, THAT THERE WILL BE
00:14:45.00\00:14:47.70
FAMINES AND NATURAL DISASTERS.
00:14:47.70\00:14:51.03
AS WE SIT HERE
TONIGHT, MOST OF US OVERFED.
00:14:51.03\00:14:55.06
IN FACT, THERE'S
SOMEBODY WHO CAN BARELY STAY
00:14:55.06\00:14:57.23
AWAKE TO HEAR ME.
00:14:57.23\00:14:59.40
AS MUCH AS I MOVE AROUND
AND RAISE MY VOICE, BECAUSE
00:14:59.40\00:15:03.26
YOU ATE WAY TOO MUCH.
00:15:03.26\00:15:06.06
AND WHAT YOU NEED IS.
. .TO GET YOU BACK AGAIN.
00:15:06.06\00:15:11.83
BUT WHILE WE SIT HERE OVERFED,
THERE ARE PLACES IN THE WORLD
00:15:11.83\00:15:15.50
WHERE CHILDREN'S BELLIES BLOAT
BECAUSE THEY CAN'T GET ENOUGH.
00:15:15.50\00:15:19.76
THEIR GROWTH IS STUNTED.
00:15:19.76\00:15:21.06
THEIR EYES BULGE OUT.
00:15:21.06\00:15:23.20
AND THESE BABIES ARE ALL
DIFFERENT KINDS OF COLORS.
00:15:23.20\00:15:26.56
YOU CAN'T
IMAGINE WHERE THEY ARE.
00:15:26.56\00:15:28.70
THERE ARE CHILDREN WHO
LIVE PICKING UP TRASH OFF THE
00:15:28.70\00:15:31.66
STREETS AND OUT OF
TRASH BINS WHILE WE SIT IN ONE
00:15:31.66\00:15:34.83
OF THE WEALTHIEST COUNTRIES
ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH.
00:15:34.83\00:15:37.66
AND THE BIBLE SAYS WHEN
THAT HAPPENS, IT'S A SIGN.
00:15:37.66\00:15:42.36
WHEN THE WEATHER GETS DIFFERENT.
00:15:42.36\00:15:49.80
I WOULD BE NARROW TO PREACH TO
THIS AUDIENCE ABOUT THE STORMS
00:15:49.80\00:15:53.26
THAT HAVE COME TO AMERICA.
00:15:53.26\00:15:55.90
BUT IF YOU LIVE IN THE
CARIBBEAN, YOU COULD TELL US
00:15:55.90\00:15:58.06
STORIES ABOUT THOSE STORMS,
BECAUSE THEY ALL GENERATE NOT
00:15:58.06\00:16:01.10
FAR AWAY FROM THE CARIBBEAN
AND THEN THEY MOVE OUR WAY.
00:16:01.10\00:16:04.96
BUT NOW THEY HAVE COME
WITH SUCH STRANGE REPITITY.
00:16:04.96\00:16:08.60
AND THEY COME
IN THE SAME PLACES.
00:16:08.60\00:16:10.60
I HAVE A FRIEND WHO OWNS A HOME
IN THE PATH OF THE LAST THREE.
00:16:10.60\00:16:14.86
AND HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
00:16:14.86\00:16:15.73
SHALL I FIX THE HOUSE
OR JUST LET IT STAY THERE ?
00:16:15.73\00:16:19.90
AND SOMEBODY SAYS
THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG.
00:16:19.90\00:16:22.86
THERE'S NOT SOMETHING WRONG.
00:16:22.86\00:16:23.96
THERE'S SOMETHING RIGHT.
00:16:23.96\00:16:26.73
THESE ARE SIGNS TO TELL YOU
THAT JESUS IS ABOUT TO COME.
00:16:26.73\00:16:29.96
AND THE PROBLEM IS THIS, THAT
SOME PEOPLE, EVEN WHEN THEY SEE
00:16:29.96\00:16:38.53
THAT, AND IF YOU LOOK IN SECOND
TIMOTHY, STARTING CHAPTER 3,
00:16:38.53\00:16:41.10
VERSES ONE THROUGH FIVE,
IT'LL TELL YOU ABOUT ALL THE
00:16:41.10\00:16:43.16
PROBLEMS WITHIN OUR CULTURE.
00:16:43.16\00:16:44.26
YOU'LL BE SURPRISED, I
BELIEVE, TO KNOW THAT THE BIBLE
00:16:44.26\00:16:46.96
UNDERSTOOD THEM WAY BACK THEN.
00:16:46.96\00:16:50.90
AND THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE,
LISTEN TO ME, AND THESE ARE
00:16:50.90\00:16:53.40
THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO NEED
TO BE AFRAID, IF YOU KNOW WHAT
00:16:53.40\00:16:58.93
GOD OFFERS AND YOU WILL
NOT ACCEPT, IF YOU KNOW THAT HE
00:16:58.93\00:17:08.20
LOVES YOU FOR NO REASON AT
ALL, AND THAT HIS LOVE REACHES
00:17:08.20\00:17:13.60
OUT TO YOU, THAT HIS GRACE
PURSUES YOU, BUT INSTEAD OF
00:17:13.60\00:17:19.40
ALLOWING HIM TO CHANGE YOU,
YOU RUN IN THE OTHER DIRECTION.
00:17:19.40\00:17:26.63
THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO NEED TO
BE WORRIED ARE THE ONES WHO WILL
00:17:26.63\00:17:30.80
NOT ALLOW JESUS TO
TRANSFORM THEM INTO A NEW BEING.
00:17:30.80\00:17:38.73
IF YOU PUSH GOD OUT OF YOUR
LIFE, IF YOU WILL NOT LET HIM
00:17:38.73\00:17:46.90
LOVE YOU, BECAUSE THAT'S ALL HE
WANTS TO DO, HE WILL CHANGE YOU
00:17:46.90\00:17:52.76
WITH A POWER FROM WITHOUT THAT
COMES WITHIN TO MAKE YOU ABLE
00:17:52.76\00:18:00.76
TO DO ANYTHING THAT HE ASKS.
00:18:00.76\00:18:04.90
AND THOSE ARE THE
ONES WHO ARE IN TROUBLE.
00:18:04.90\00:18:08.40
LOOK AT SECOND
THESSALONIANS, CHAPTER 1.
00:18:08.40\00:18:11.36
AND I'LL READ YOU THIS, AND THEN
I'VE GOT A STORY TO TELL YOU.
00:18:11.36\00:18:15.50
SECOND THESSALONIANS,
CHAPTER 1, START WITH VERSE 7.
00:18:15.50\00:18:21.43
AND TO YOU WHO ARE
TROUBLED, REST WITH US.
00:18:21.43\00:18:25.20
WHEN THE LORD JESUS SHALL BE
REVEALED FROM HEAVEN WITH HIS
00:18:25.20\00:18:27.86
MIGHTY ANGELS INFLAMING FIRE,
TAKING VENGENCE ON THEM, THAT
00:18:27.86\00:18:32.93
KNOW NOT GOD, AND THAT OBEY
NOT THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS
00:18:32.93\00:18:37.93
CHRIST, WHO SHALL BE PUNISHED
WITH EVERLASTING DESTRUCTION
00:18:37.93\00:18:42.43
FROM THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD,
FROM THE GLORY OF HIS POWER.
00:18:42.43\00:18:46.66
WHEN HE SHALL COME TO
BE GLORIFIED IN HIS SAINTS,
00:18:46.66\00:18:50.50
AND TO BE ADMIRED ALL
THEM THAT BELIEVE, BECAUSE OUR
00:18:50.50\00:18:55.70
TESTIMONY AMONG YOU
WAS BELIEVED IN THAT DAY.
00:18:55.70\00:19:01.03
IN OTHER WORDS,
THE QUESTION IS SIMPLE.
00:19:01.03\00:19:03.60
WHEN IT'S IN THE WORD
OF GOD, WHEN IT APPLIES TO
00:19:03.60\00:19:07.93
EVERYBODY, WHEN YOU CAN
BE AS WICKED AS ZACCHAEUS AND
00:19:07.93\00:19:13.30
JESUS WOULD CALL YOU BY NAME,
BUT YOU REFUSE IT, IT WOULD BE
00:19:13.30\00:19:17.76
THE EQUIVALANT OF ZACCHAEUS
SAYING, WHEN JESUS APPROACHED
00:19:17.76\00:19:21.90
HIS TREE AND SAID, ZACCHAEUS,
I WANT TO GO TO YOUR HOUSE.
00:19:21.90\00:19:27.83
NO, NO.
00:19:27.83\00:19:33.93
I DON'T HAVE ANY
COMPANY WITH PEOPLE LIKE YOU.
00:19:33.93\00:19:36.93
I ONLY CAME TO WATCH.
00:19:36.93\00:19:40.33
THE KINDS OF PEOPLE WHO
NEED TO WORRY ABOUT JESUS COMING
00:19:40.33\00:19:44.56
ARE THE KINDS OF PEOPLE WHO
LOCK THE DOOR AGAINST A LOVING
00:19:44.56\00:19:50.40
CHRIST WHO WANTS TO COME IN
AND MAKE YOU READY FOR A KINGDOM
00:19:50.40\00:19:55.86
THAT IS BEYOND BELIEF.
00:19:55.86\00:19:59.60
I GOT A CALL
FROM MY GRANDMOTHER.
00:19:59.60\00:20:04.03
MY GRANDMOTHER
HAS SINCE DECEASED.
00:20:04.03\00:20:06.96
I HADN'T SEEN HER IN AGES.
00:20:06.96\00:20:08.23
I TOLD THIS STORY ABOUT 15
YEARS AGO--THE LONG VERSION.
00:20:08.23\00:20:11.93
THIS IS GOING TO
BE THE SHORT ONE.
00:20:11.93\00:20:14.30
SHE SAID, SON, I'M
NOT EATING THE RIGHT FOOD.
00:20:14.30\00:20:17.96
I'M NOT GETTING TREATED WELL.
00:20:17.96\00:20:21.16
AND YOU'RE THE
ONLY ONE WHO I CAN CALL.
00:20:21.16\00:20:23.73
COME VISIT ME AND BRING
ME SOME THINGS TO EAT, AND
00:20:23.73\00:20:26.90
I JUST NEED TO SEE YOU.
00:20:26.90\00:20:28.16
WELL, MY
GRANDMOTHER HAD LIVED WITH US.
00:20:28.16\00:20:30.33
THERE'S NOTHING MORE POWERFUL
THEN HAVING THAT GENERATION
00:20:30.33\00:20:32.96
IN THE HOUSE.
00:20:32.96\00:20:36.13
YOU KNOW, GRANDPARENTS
DON'T HAVE TO CHASTEN YOU.
00:20:36.13\00:20:39.10
THEY'RE FINISHED WITH
THAT PHASE OF THEIR PARENTING.
00:20:39.10\00:20:42.66
SO THEY'RE JUST
WONDERFUL AND SWEET.
00:20:42.66\00:20:46.80
MY GRANDMOTHER HAD ARTHRITIS
AND SHE WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR.
00:20:46.80\00:20:50.30
MY BROTHER AND I WOULD
SIT BESIDE HER WHEELCHAIR WHEN
00:20:50.30\00:20:52.56
THE SUN WOULD RISE IN THE
MORNING, BECAUSE SOMETHING
00:20:52.56\00:20:54.90
AMAZING HAPPENED.
00:20:54.90\00:20:56.43
SHE WOULD BE ACHING AND THE PAIN
WOULD BE GETTING MORE THAN SHE
00:20:56.43\00:20:59.33
COULD BEAR, AND SHE WOULD SING
HYMNS AND WAIT FOR THE SUN TO
00:20:59.33\00:21:02.56
WARM HER UNTIL THE ARTHRITIS
GAVE IN TO THE BEAMS OF THE SUN.
00:21:02.56\00:21:08.03
SO SHE WOULD SING WITH
TEARS RUNNING DOWN HER FACE AND
00:21:08.03\00:21:11.06
WE SAID, GRANDMOTHER,
WHY ARE YOU CRYING ?
00:21:11.06\00:21:13.23
SHE SAID, ARTHUR, AND WE
KNEW THAT WAS ARTHUR RITIS.
00:21:13.23\00:21:19.83
AND THEN HER TEARS
WOULD GO AWAY, AND SHE'D SING
00:21:19.83\00:21:24.23
WITH A SMILE.
00:21:24.23\00:21:25.36
AND WE'D SAY, GRANDMOTHER,
WHY ARE YOU SMILING.
00:21:25.36\00:21:27.13
SHE'D SAY, BECAUSE
JESUS HAS TAKEN MY PAIN AWAY.
00:21:27.13\00:21:30.66
WE LOVED GRANDMOTHER,
SO WHEN SHE SAID COME,
00:21:30.66\00:21:33.00
I WAS READY TO COME.
00:21:33.00\00:21:33.90
I'D JUST BOUGHT
A BRAND NEW BUICK.
00:21:33.90\00:21:37.83
DOES ANYBODY REMEMBER WHEN
PREACHERS USED TO LOVE BUICKS ?
00:21:37.83\00:21:42.86
I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT
THOSE TINY LITTLE BUICKS.
00:21:42.86\00:21:47.20
I'M TALKING ABOUT THIS BUICK.
00:21:47.20\00:22:03.33
I SAID, GRANDMOTHER,
HOW DO I GET TO YOU ?
00:22:03.33\00:22:05.40
SHE SAID, CALL MY BROTHER.
00:22:05.40\00:22:06.43
I CALLED HIM.
00:22:06.43\00:22:07.53
I SAID, UNCLE,
HOW DO I GET TO HER ?
00:22:07.53\00:22:09.23
HE SAID, LOOK, HERE'S
WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO DO.
00:22:09.23\00:22:10.96
YOU GET ON THE
FOUR LANE FOR A WHILE.
00:22:10.96\00:22:12.73
YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE
TURN ONTO A TWO LANE.
00:22:12.73\00:22:14.50
AND HE SAID, THEN WHEN YOU GET
ON A TWO LANE, IT'S NOT PAVED.
00:22:14.50\00:22:16.90
I THOUGHT ABOUT MY CAR,
BUT THIS IS GRANDMOTHER.
00:22:16.90\00:22:20.33
HE SAID, THEN YOU'RE GOING
TO TURN OFF ON A LITTLE PATH.
00:22:20.33\00:22:23.96
AND THEN HE SAID, JUNIOR, WHEN
YOU'RE ALMOST HERE, YOU'RE GOING
00:22:23.96\00:22:28.76
TO GET TO A PLACE WHERE THE
TRACTOR MADE TWO LITTLE CUTS.
00:22:28.76\00:22:35.70
AND HE SAID, YOU'LL
KNOW WHEN YOU GET THERE.
00:22:35.70\00:22:38.66
HE SAID, IT'S GOING TO
BE KIND OF ROUGH, BUT YOU'LL
00:22:38.66\00:22:40.50
KNOW YOU'RE ALMOST HERE.
00:22:40.50\00:22:42.76
AND I REMEMBER, MY
WIFE WAS RIDING WITH ME.
00:22:42.76\00:22:45.40
SHE WAS HELPING TO MAKE
THE PAYMENTS ON THE BUICK.
00:22:45.40\00:22:51.03
WE WERE FINE ON THE FOUR LANE.
00:22:51.03\00:22:52.93
FINE ON THE TWO LANE.
00:22:52.93\00:22:54.56
FINE ON THE DIRT ROAD.
00:22:54.56\00:22:56.46
EVEN OKAY ON THE PATH.
00:22:56.46\00:22:58.63
AND THEN WE MADE THAT
TURN INTO THE TRACTOR. . .I WAS
00:22:58.63\00:23:06.50
AFRAID TO LOOK AT HER.
00:23:06.50\00:23:09.03
HERE WAS OUR BRAND NEW CAR.
00:23:09.03\00:23:13.13
AND INSTEAD OF
GETTING UPSET, I WAS SMILING.
00:23:13.13\00:23:17.30
BECAUSE I KNEW THAT WITH EVERY
BUMP IN THE TRACTOR PATH, I
00:23:17.30\00:23:22.83
WAS CLOSER TO GRANDMOTHER.
00:23:22.83\00:23:26.66
SO THE TRIALS OF THAT
TRIP DID NOT MAKE ME UPSET.
00:23:26.66\00:23:32.93
THEY GOT ME EXCITED BECAUSE
THE ROUGHER THE DRIVE, THE
00:23:32.93\00:23:38.73
CLOSER I WAS TO GRANDMOTHER.
00:23:38.73\00:23:50.36
YOU DID THAT ALL BY YOURSELF.
00:23:50.36\00:23:52.00
I DIDN'T HAVE TO HELP YOU.
00:23:52.00\00:23:53.70
GO TO FIRST JOHN, CHAPTER
3, THE LAST ONE THAT I'LL BE
00:23:53.70\00:23:56.20
ABLE TO GIVE YOU.
00:23:56.20\00:23:57.60
FIRST JOHN, CHAPTER 3.
00:23:57.60\00:23:58.86
I TELL YOU THAT THE ROUGHER
THINGS GET, THE CLOSER WE ARE
00:23:58.86\00:24:05.13
TO THE COMING OF JESUS CHRIST.
00:24:05.13\00:24:08.23
SO DON'T BE UPSET AT
ME IF I DON'T GET DOWN IN
00:24:08.23\00:24:11.53
THE DUMPS WITH YOU.
00:24:11.53\00:24:13.33
BECAUSE I KNOW THE ROUGHER THIS
TRIP IS THE CLOSER WE ARE TO
00:24:13.33\00:24:16.53
THE COMING OF JESUS CHRIST.
00:24:16.53\00:24:18.53
AND WHEN HE COMES, ALL OF THIS
WILL BE CHANGED IN A MOMENT,
00:24:18.53\00:24:22.43
IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE.
00:24:22.43\00:24:24.46
AND THE FACT IS THAT GOVERNMENT,
ALL OF THESE CHALLENGES THAT WE
00:24:24.46\00:24:28.33
HAVE WITH GOVERNMENT WILL
DISAPPEAR, FOR THE GOVERNMENT
00:24:28.33\00:24:30.83
SHALL BE UPON HIS SHOULDERS.
00:24:30.83\00:24:33.33
AND HE SHALL
REIGN FOREVER AND EVER.
00:24:33.33\00:24:40.36
I'LL NEVER HAVE TO
WORRY ABOUT THE PROBLEMS OF
00:24:40.36\00:24:42.96
AN ELECTION AGAIN.
00:24:42.96\00:24:44.96
FOR WHEN HE IS INSTALLED
IN OFFICE THERE WILL BE
00:24:44.96\00:24:48.56
NO MORE LEADERSHIP.
00:24:48.56\00:24:51.13
WELL, LET ME READ THIS.
00:24:51.13\00:24:53.30
THIS IS JOHN,
FIRST JOHN, CHAPTER 3.
00:24:53.30\00:24:56.60
BEHOLD WHAT MANNER OF
LOVE THE FATHER HATH BESTOWED
00:24:56.60\00:25:01.66
UPON US THAT WE SHOULD
BE CALLED THE SONS OF GOD.
00:25:01.66\00:25:06.00
THEREFORE THE WORLD KNOWTH
US NOT BECAUSE IT KNEW HIM NOT.
00:25:06.00\00:25:10.00
BELOVED NOW ARE
WE THE SONS OF GOD.
00:25:10.00\00:25:14.26
AND IT DOES NOT APPEAR WHAT
WE SHALL BE, BUT WE KNOW THAT
00:25:14.26\00:25:18.56
WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE
SHALL BE LIKE HIM, FOR WE SHALL
00:25:18.56\00:25:23.83
SEE HIM AS HE IS.
00:25:23.83\00:25:28.20
NOW, HERE'S MY LAST
EXPERIENCE-THE-POWER MOMENT.
00:25:28.20\00:25:32.40
VERSE 2 SAYS, BELOVED
NOW ARE WE THE SONS OF GOD.
00:25:32.40\00:25:39.76
DO YOU KNOW WHAT
THAT TEXT MEANS ?
00:25:39.76\00:25:43.36
STILL IMPERFECT.
00:25:43.36\00:25:46.30
STILL STRUGGLING WITH
HABITS THAT I OUGHT NOT
00:25:46.30\00:25:49.66
NEED TO STRUGGLE WITH.
00:25:49.66\00:25:52.10
I AM ACCEPTED IN HEAVEN BECAUSE
JESUS, MY BIG BROTHER, IS THERE.
00:25:52.10\00:26:01.56
NOW, AM I A CHILD OF GOD.
00:26:01.56\00:26:05.80
WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS THAT
MY RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS HAS
00:26:05.80\00:26:11.23
GIVEN HIM THE CONFIDENCE TO
GO INTO HEAVEN TO REPRESENT ME.
00:26:11.23\00:26:17.86
IF GOD LOOKED BEYOND JESUS, AND
SAW ME BACK THERE, HE WOULD HAVE
00:26:17.86\00:26:24.20
TO ASK JESUS, WHAT HAS HE BEEN ?
00:26:24.20\00:26:27.60
HOW'D HE GET BACK THERE ?
00:26:27.60\00:26:29.83
BUT SINCE GOD TRUSTS
HIS SON, I AM COVERED WITH
00:26:29.83\00:26:33.73
JESUS' RIGHTEOUSNESS.
00:26:33.73\00:26:36.60
I AM COVERED
WITH HIS PERFECTION.
00:26:36.60\00:26:39.70
SO GOD THE FATHER ACCEPTS
ME BECAUSE MY BIG BROTHER SAYS
00:26:39.70\00:26:45.46
I'M GOING TO BE READY WHEN
HE COMES BACK TO GET ME AGAIN.
