Hello, friends,
and welcome once again
00:00:38.97\00:00:40.80
to Behold the Lamb Presents.
00:00:40.84\00:00:42.27
I'm Chris Shelton,
00:00:42.30\00:00:43.64
I want to thank
you for joining us.
00:00:43.67\00:00:45.81
Our message for today
is entitled, Indicators.
00:00:45.84\00:00:48.68
We have indicators that
00:00:48.71\00:00:50.08
show the change in temperature,
oil pressure, steam pressure,
00:00:50.11\00:00:54.28
traffic light indicators
that show the rider way,
00:00:54.32\00:00:58.45
burglar alarms
that indicate that
00:00:58.49\00:01:00.66
we have well unwanted guests
in our homes or our businesses,
00:01:00.69\00:01:04.39
and the list could go on and on.
00:01:04.43\00:01:07.03
But did you know that God
00:01:07.06\00:01:08.90
has
prophetically left indicators
00:01:08.93\00:01:11.23
in His Word to signify about
00:01:11.27\00:01:14.04
where we are in
the stream of time
00:01:14.07\00:01:16.10
before the
Second Coming of Christ?
00:01:16.14\00:01:18.27
We often refer
to these indicators
00:01:18.31\00:01:20.71
as signs of the times.
00:01:20.74\00:01:23.14
Today, Pastor Kenny
Shelton will be covering
00:01:23.18\00:01:25.48
the signs of the times that
we need to be fully aware of
00:01:25.51\00:01:29.65
if we are to be ready
for the soon coming of Christ
00:01:29.68\00:01:33.15
and all that His coming entails.
00:01:33.19\00:01:35.62
So let's join
Pastor Kenny Shelton
00:01:35.66\00:01:38.19
as he reveals
the indicators that
00:01:38.23\00:01:40.80
currently need
our full attention.
00:01:40.83\00:01:42.96
But first, let's listen
to a song that's entitled,
00:01:43.00\00:01:46.40
The Lower Lights Be Burning,
00:01:46.43\00:01:48.37
as sung by Sandra Entermann.
00:01:48.40\00:01:50.61
Brightly beams
00:02:05.09\00:02:08.52
Our Father's mercy
00:02:08.56\00:02:12.43
From His lighthouse
00:02:12.46\00:02:16.73
Evermore
00:02:16.77\00:02:19.73
But to us
00:02:19.77\00:02:23.00
He gives the keeping
00:02:23.04\00:02:27.21
Of the lights
00:02:27.24\00:02:30.05
Along the shore
00:02:30.08\00:02:34.68
Let the lower
00:02:34.72\00:02:38.75
Lights be burning!
00:02:38.79\00:02:42.22
Send a gleam
00:02:42.26\00:02:45.33
Across the wave!
00:02:45.36\00:02:49.26
Some poor fainting,
00:02:49.30\00:02:53.23
Struggling seaman
00:02:53.27\00:02:56.97
You may rescue,
00:02:57.01\00:02:58.87
you may save
00:03:03.28\00:03:06.01
Dark the night
of sin has settled
00:03:18.36\00:03:25.20
Loud the angry billows roar
00:03:25.23\00:03:32.17
Eager eyes are watching, longing
00:03:32.21\00:03:39.05
For the lights
00:03:39.08\00:03:41.88
Along the shore
00:03:41.92\00:03:46.65
Let the lower lights
00:03:46.69\00:03:50.99
be burning!
00:03:51.03\00:03:53.86
Send a gleam
00:03:53.90\00:03:57.27
Across the wave!
00:03:57.30\00:04:01.17
Some poor fainting,
00:04:01.20\00:04:04.87
Struggling seaman
00:04:04.91\00:04:08.34
You may rescue,
00:04:08.38\00:04:11.15
You may save
00:04:11.18\00:04:15.62
Trim your feeble lamp,
00:04:15.65\00:04:20.29
My brother!
00:04:20.32\00:04:22.86
Some poor seaman,
00:04:22.89\00:04:26.93
Tempest-tossed
00:04:26.96\00:04:30.17
Trying now to find the harbor
00:04:30.20\00:04:36.40
In the darkness
00:04:36.44\00:04:39.87
May be lost
00:04:39.91\00:04:44.51
Let the lower lights
00:04:44.55\00:04:48.88
Be burning!
00:04:48.92\00:04:51.72
Send a gleam
00:04:51.75\00:04:54.92
Across the wave!
00:04:54.96\00:04:58.93
Some poor fainting,
00:04:58.96\00:05:03.10
Struggling seaman
00:05:03.13\00:05:06.13
You may rescue,
00:05:06.17\00:05:08.90
You may save
00:05:08.94\00:05:13.48
Let the lower lights
00:05:13.51\00:05:17.81
Be burning!
00:05:17.85\00:05:20.78
Send a gleam
00:05:20.82\00:05:24.09
Across the wave!
00:05:24.12\00:05:28.42
Some poor fainting,
00:05:28.46\00:05:32.09
Struggling seaman
00:05:32.13\00:05:35.63
You may rescue,
00:05:35.66\00:05:38.43
You may save
00:05:38.47\00:05:43.10
You may rescue,
00:05:43.14\00:05:49.71
You may save
00:05:49.74\00:05:52.58
Thank you for
joining us once again
00:06:10.20\00:06:11.53
here at Behold
the Lamb Ministries.
00:06:11.57\00:06:13.13
As always, we
appreciate the time
00:06:13.17\00:06:15.50
that you spend, your
cards, your letter, your support
00:06:15.54\00:06:18.44
and keeping again this
message around the world,
00:06:18.47\00:06:20.68
and we like to say we
couldn't do it without you.
00:06:20.71\00:06:22.68
We realize the Holy
Spirit is doing the work,
00:06:22.71\00:06:24.78
but Holy Spirit uses people
00:06:24.81\00:06:26.31
and thank you for
letting him use each one of you.
00:06:26.35\00:06:29.25
We appreciate so very much
the Spirit of the Living God.
00:06:29.28\00:06:33.42
God has a message for us today.
00:06:33.46\00:06:35.92
He has one I'm telling
you every day of our life.
00:06:35.96\00:06:38.89
We're going to be
talking about one today.
00:06:38.93\00:06:40.50
It's very simple
00:06:40.53\00:06:42.20
when you look at the indicators.
00:06:42.23\00:06:45.63
What does all that mean?
00:06:45.67\00:06:47.00
Well, we're going to find out
00:06:47.04\00:06:48.37
about indicators
here in just a moment.
00:06:48.40\00:06:50.21
But you know, we're
going to have prayer,
00:06:50.24\00:06:51.67
we're going to be praying,
00:06:51.71\00:06:53.07
right, for the
power of the Holy Spirit
00:06:53.11\00:06:54.54
to come upon each
and every one of us,
00:06:54.58\00:06:56.21
to help us to realize that
00:06:56.24\00:06:58.51
this world is
in the biggest mess
00:06:58.55\00:07:00.68
that maybe it's ever been in.
00:07:00.72\00:07:03.42
And that, may that demands that
00:07:03.45\00:07:05.85
something be done in
our own personal lives
00:07:05.89\00:07:09.16
and positional
stances that we must take.
00:07:09.19\00:07:12.16
And we cannot
anymore stand idly by
00:07:12.19\00:07:15.73
and just kind of let
the world go by and say,
00:07:15.76\00:07:17.73
"Well, it's all
going to work its way out."
00:07:17.77\00:07:20.37
There's things
that we can be doing
00:07:20.40\00:07:21.77
as God's people to
be ready for His coming.
00:07:21.80\00:07:24.11
So again, thank
you for joining us.
00:07:24.14\00:07:25.51
And we just pray,
00:07:25.54\00:07:26.91
anything we can
do for you, folks,
00:07:26.94\00:07:28.28
you'll give us a
call, or we can do to
00:07:28.31\00:07:29.94
send you some books
and different things.
00:07:29.98\00:07:31.91
And we'll be reading
out of the Great Controversy
00:07:31.95\00:07:33.55
a little bit today, too.
00:07:33.58\00:07:34.92
So I want you to, you know,
be very well aware of that.
00:07:34.95\00:07:37.42
But I'm going to
have prayer right now.
00:07:37.45\00:07:39.05
Where you can you
can kneel with me.
00:07:39.09\00:07:40.76
And if you can't do
that, then just pray.
00:07:40.79\00:07:42.69
Would you please?
00:07:42.72\00:07:46.03
Merciful Father in heaven,
00:07:46.06\00:07:47.40
we thank You for
the privilege of prayer,
00:07:47.43\00:07:48.76
we thank You that we
can call You our Father.
00:07:48.80\00:07:51.10
We come before
thee because we sense
00:07:51.13\00:07:52.90
our need of the
power of the Holy Spirit.
00:07:52.93\00:07:55.94
Lord, we look deep
within our own self
00:07:55.97\00:07:57.57
and we find we have
00:07:57.61\00:07:58.94
nothing good to
which to give Thy people.
00:07:58.97\00:08:01.44
But we know that You do.
00:08:01.48\00:08:03.04
So we want to
empty ourselves of self
00:08:03.08\00:08:05.05
and be filled with the
Spirit of the Living God,
00:08:05.08\00:08:07.68
that words that
will be spoken today
00:08:07.72\00:08:09.35
will penetrate the heart,
00:08:09.38\00:08:10.72
the mind, the lives of each,
of every one of your children,
00:08:10.75\00:08:13.29
who you have seen
fit to bring here today.
00:08:13.32\00:08:15.72
It's not an accident that
those who are here are here.
00:08:15.76\00:08:19.13
So we pray that
our ears and hearts
00:08:19.16\00:08:20.50
and minds will be open that
00:08:20.53\00:08:21.86
You will speak
to us words of life,
00:08:21.90\00:08:23.77
words of warning, and
that we may be encouraged
00:08:23.80\00:08:27.07
and not
discouraged in this hour that
00:08:27.10\00:08:28.80
we're living in, in Jesus' name.
00:08:28.84\00:08:30.37
Amen.
00:08:30.41\00:08:31.74
I may start something like this,
00:08:38.21\00:08:40.22
people are afraid.
00:08:40.25\00:08:44.39
People are afraid.
00:08:44.42\00:08:47.72
I've talked to several,
00:08:47.76\00:08:49.09
I know that you have
too, and the bottom line,
00:08:49.12\00:08:51.96
you know if
they're searching more
00:08:51.99\00:08:53.33
for relationship with Christ,
or maybe they don't have one.
00:08:53.36\00:08:55.56
And even those who say,
I talked to guy yesterday.
00:08:55.60\00:08:59.03
He said, "Well, I don't care
00:08:59.07\00:09:00.40
what happens in the
world, I'm bound for heaven."
00:09:00.44\00:09:02.80
Well, good. That's good news.
00:09:02.84\00:09:05.27
Maybe we should be
very positive about
00:09:05.31\00:09:07.11
our relationship with Christ,
that we are bound for heaven.
00:09:07.14\00:09:11.08
But we need to be careful that
00:09:11.11\00:09:12.45
enemy loves for you to say that.
00:09:12.48\00:09:15.75
Well, we're
just bound for heaven
00:09:15.78\00:09:17.12
and we're going to
make, oh praise God,
00:09:17.15\00:09:18.52
certainly the way
has been prepared.
00:09:18.55\00:09:20.16
His blood is, you know,
00:09:20.19\00:09:21.52
is powerful enough to cleanse us
00:09:21.56\00:09:23.02
from all unrighteous and sin.
00:09:23.06\00:09:24.49
But are we really ready
for the coming of Jesus?
00:09:24.53\00:09:27.50
I'm going to be
talking about indicators,
00:09:27.53\00:09:29.40
and I believe we live in a time
00:09:29.43\00:09:30.83
where there's a
lot of indicators
00:09:30.87\00:09:32.77
that tell us where we are at.
00:09:32.80\00:09:34.84
Interesting people ask
00:09:34.87\00:09:36.20
questions things like, you know,
00:09:36.24\00:09:38.04
how long will it be
before Jesus gets here?
00:09:38.07\00:09:41.68
And I think
they're honest in heart
00:09:41.71\00:09:43.88
when they asked these things,
00:09:43.91\00:09:45.45
but yet the Bible
doesn't give a definite time.
00:09:45.48\00:09:47.82
True?
00:09:47.85\00:09:49.18
We don't know, man doesn't know
00:09:49.22\00:09:50.62
the day or the hour
of the coming of Jesus,
00:09:50.65\00:09:52.92
but he can know it's what?
00:09:52.95\00:09:54.82
It's near even at the door.
00:09:54.86\00:09:57.36
He doesn't want to surprise you,
00:09:57.39\00:09:58.83
He doesn't want to surprise me,
00:09:58.86\00:10:00.60
and all the things
00:10:00.63\00:10:01.96
that are unraveling
right now before us,
00:10:02.00\00:10:04.93
we should be much well
aware that something big,
00:10:04.97\00:10:10.41
something
dynamic, something that is,
00:10:10.44\00:10:13.41
we've never experienced
before is getting ready to,
00:10:13.44\00:10:16.44
I want to say
blow up in our face.
00:10:16.48\00:10:19.61
And we need to be on guard
rather than set back and say,
00:10:19.65\00:10:23.75
"I've heard it before."
00:10:23.79\00:10:26.39
Here in this church,
00:10:26.42\00:10:28.22
we need to hear it over and over
00:10:28.26\00:10:29.86
and over the warning
of the coming of Jesus,
00:10:29.89\00:10:32.43
and the
indicators that are there
00:10:32.46\00:10:34.10
that might help us to,
00:10:34.13\00:10:35.93
you know, to really get
excited about His coming.
00:10:35.96\00:10:38.43
And as He's coming,
00:10:38.47\00:10:39.80
these things are
going to take place,
00:10:39.83\00:10:41.17
our work is going to
00:10:41.20\00:10:42.54
become more difficult
than it's ever been before.
00:10:42.57\00:10:46.21
The enemy is as a roaring
lion, he's not going to let off.
00:10:46.24\00:10:49.24
He's going to
bite you if he can.
00:10:49.28\00:10:51.95
We need the Word of
God, we need the truth.
00:10:51.98\00:10:54.02
We need the armor of God on.
00:10:54.05\00:10:56.05
We, many as a people,
as a world, we are afraid.
00:10:56.08\00:11:00.86
Many people have
forgotten the principles
00:11:00.89\00:11:04.16
upon which this
country was founded upon.
00:11:04.19\00:11:07.23
We have forgotten those things.
00:11:07.26\00:11:09.90
And we looking around and say
that simply life and liberty,
00:11:09.93\00:11:13.37
the pursuit of happiness,
and we're looking about life.
00:11:13.40\00:11:16.47
Some people don't
want to live anymore.
00:11:16.50\00:11:18.84
Liberty, apparently all gone,
and the pursuit of happiness.
00:11:18.87\00:11:24.71
If the government tells you can.
00:11:24.75\00:11:27.28
Somebody think with me.
00:11:27.32\00:11:29.22
These things that
were founded upon,
00:11:29.25\00:11:31.02
they're supposed to be
God given to us a country
00:11:31.05\00:11:33.46
that was raised that
00:11:33.49\00:11:34.82
we could come here
for freedom of conscience,
00:11:34.86\00:11:37.29
freedom of worship
somehow is turning around.
00:11:37.33\00:11:41.96
Politicians are taking liberties
00:11:42.00\00:11:44.80
that are not theirs to take.
00:11:44.83\00:11:48.54
And there are court cases,
00:11:48.57\00:11:51.41
there's going to be
hundreds of those things.
00:11:51.44\00:11:55.21
So what do we do as a people
00:11:55.24\00:11:58.98
when we have read and
we were taught in school,
00:11:59.01\00:12:01.42
that the
government is by the people
00:12:01.45\00:12:04.39
and for the people?
00:12:04.42\00:12:07.19
I don't want you to
become discouraged with it.
00:12:07.22\00:12:08.92
This is not for or
against the government.
00:12:08.96\00:12:12.29
It's this simple things that
00:12:12.33\00:12:13.66
we have to look
at how God set it up,
00:12:13.70\00:12:16.33
and what's happening to
our country that we love.
00:12:16.36\00:12:21.04
I want to read
just a few things.
00:12:21.07\00:12:22.47
And I want to make sense to you.
00:12:22.50\00:12:25.34
And then, by the grace of
God point out some other points,
00:12:25.37\00:12:28.44
I believe that will
take us in a direction
00:12:28.48\00:12:31.01
that will help us
see again and again.
00:12:31.05\00:12:34.58
Remember, when Noah preached,
how long did he preach?
00:12:34.62\00:12:38.12
Hundred and twenty years.
00:12:38.15\00:12:40.06
Different messages I guess.
00:12:40.09\00:12:43.36
He stayed on the same one.
00:12:43.39\00:12:44.96
So some of you
want to get on to him,
00:12:44.99\00:12:46.33
you go ahead.
00:12:46.36\00:12:47.83
I've got over 100 years to keep.
00:12:47.86\00:12:50.63
All right. Same
message, you follow me?
00:12:50.67\00:12:54.00
Yeah.
00:12:54.04\00:12:55.37
Never get discouraged
00:12:55.40\00:12:56.77
when we're
studying the Books of Daniel
00:12:56.81\00:12:58.44
and Revelation and prophecy.
00:12:58.47\00:13:00.51
Do not get
discouraged with that.
00:13:00.54\00:13:02.34
That's where
your head needs to be.
00:13:02.38\00:13:04.78
That's where my
head needs to be that
00:13:04.81\00:13:07.15
things are revealed that
God said, "I reveal them.
00:13:07.18\00:13:10.45
I'm giving you a
revelation of Myself,
00:13:10.49\00:13:13.12
of things that are
shortly to take place."
00:13:13.15\00:13:16.66
That sound like a warning to me,
00:13:16.69\00:13:18.93
one of love and one of
encouragement, I like that.
00:13:18.96\00:13:22.46
As we think back,
00:13:22.50\00:13:23.83
we think about our
Constitution is guaranteed,
00:13:23.87\00:13:26.13
we say, our religious freedom
00:13:26.17\00:13:28.30
is guaranteed, they say.
00:13:28.34\00:13:30.67
We can worship God
00:13:30.71\00:13:32.04
according to the
dictates of our conscience,
00:13:32.07\00:13:33.98
we are told,
00:13:34.01\00:13:35.54
but yet I see some
things that are happening.
00:13:35.58\00:13:39.15
And so I refer to
the Great Controversy.
00:13:39.18\00:13:41.48
Now the Bible we can go
through and we will do that,
00:13:41.52\00:13:44.45
we'll be studying Book
of Revelation Chapter 13,
00:13:44.49\00:13:46.59
we look at the first
beast, we look at second beast.
00:13:46.62\00:13:49.29
Think about this,
of all the countries
00:13:49.32\00:13:52.13
that are mentioned in Scripture.
00:13:52.16\00:13:55.30
You know, you talk
about Babylon, Medo-Persia,
00:13:55.33\00:13:56.67
Greece and Rome,
00:13:56.70\00:13:58.03
all the big places of the world,
00:13:58.07\00:14:00.14
surely before Jesus comes,
00:14:00.17\00:14:02.60
there's
something going to happen
00:14:02.64\00:14:04.01
in the United States of
America that would bring it
00:14:04.04\00:14:06.74
into the Bible
and Bible prophecy.
00:14:06.78\00:14:09.88
There's no country
ever been like it before.
00:14:09.91\00:14:12.08
Surely it's mentioned in here.
00:14:12.11\00:14:14.32
Surely, it's told
how it would be set up.
00:14:14.35\00:14:16.72
Surely it's told how
it would end up speaking.
00:14:16.75\00:14:20.49
It makes sense.
00:14:20.52\00:14:23.49
And so we want to
discover that more today
00:14:23.53\00:14:25.59
The Great Controversy,
205 and 6 says this.
00:14:25.63\00:14:28.70
And I like this, it
says, we must return
00:14:28.73\00:14:30.83
because we're
having such problems,
00:14:30.87\00:14:32.57
and we're having problems
00:14:32.60\00:14:33.94
because we've gotten
away from the Word of God.
00:14:33.97\00:14:35.80
Are you still with
me? That's our problem.
00:14:35.84\00:14:37.91
We've gotten away
from a thus saith the Lord
00:14:37.94\00:14:40.61
and I'm hearing too much
about thus saith the man.
00:14:40.64\00:14:43.68
I don't care about
thus saith the man.
00:14:43.71\00:14:45.45
I'm talking
about myself up here.
00:14:45.48\00:14:48.12
You check everything that said,
00:14:48.15\00:14:49.88
you see whether it be
so in the Word of God.
00:14:49.92\00:14:52.92
And sometime we
have to lay aside
00:14:52.95\00:14:54.46
our preconceived ideas in
order to get to that point.
00:14:54.49\00:14:59.03
But the Great
Controversy says this,
00:14:59.06\00:15:00.70
but it's talking
about the reformation.
00:15:00.73\00:15:02.60
And I hope you know a
little about the reformation.
00:15:02.63\00:15:04.23
Some of you certainly
know much more about than I do.
00:15:04.27\00:15:07.00
But I praise God
for the reformation.
00:15:07.04\00:15:10.41
There needed to be
and there needs to be
00:15:10.44\00:15:11.77
a reformation today.
00:15:11.81\00:15:14.88
God's Church is Laodicea.
00:15:14.91\00:15:17.58
It's lukewarm.
00:15:17.61\00:15:19.75
Yeah, sleeping, song some zees.
00:15:19.78\00:15:24.02
And we don't want to
be bothered the majority.
00:15:24.05\00:15:28.69
So we must
return, this article says,
00:15:28.72\00:15:30.83
we must return to
the Protestant principle.
00:15:30.86\00:15:35.40
Remember, Protestant
means you protest Catholicism?
00:15:35.43\00:15:38.80
Is that okay to say that?
00:15:38.83\00:15:40.54
That's what a Protestant is.
00:15:40.57\00:15:42.07
So if you're...
00:15:42.10\00:15:43.44
Well, I almost said,
00:15:43.47\00:15:44.81
if you're too yellow to do that,
00:15:44.84\00:15:46.17
and I won't do
that from the pulpit.
00:15:46.21\00:15:47.94
Pray for my
brother, Jan, you know how.
00:15:47.98\00:15:50.95
If you don't have
the spiritual backbone.
00:15:50.98\00:15:53.42
Right?
00:15:53.45\00:15:54.78
This is why the
reformation came about.
00:15:54.82\00:15:58.65
Protest, about changing, right?
00:15:58.69\00:16:01.76
The Word of God,
00:16:01.79\00:16:03.39
and things that
were happening back then.
00:16:03.43\00:16:05.33
And then the
Protestant says this,
00:16:05.36\00:16:06.86
what we need to do
is go back to the Bible
00:16:06.90\00:16:09.43
and the Bible only
as our rule of faith.
00:16:09.46\00:16:13.94
Does that make sense?
00:16:13.97\00:16:15.30
Let's get back to
the rule of our faith.
00:16:15.34\00:16:18.17
Satan still working
through every means,
00:16:18.21\00:16:21.64
which he can to control that
and destroy religious liberty.
00:16:21.68\00:16:27.42
See, part of this talk
today on religious liberty,
00:16:27.45\00:16:30.52
freedom of religion,
00:16:30.55\00:16:31.99
and some people say,
"Oh, let's be careful
00:16:32.02\00:16:33.36
we don't throw
things out there."
00:16:33.39\00:16:34.72
Listen, I don't care what
you throw out there today.
00:16:34.76\00:16:36.52
I believe this has some meaning.
00:16:36.56\00:16:38.19
Something's
going on in the world,
00:16:38.23\00:16:39.63
no matter how
ridiculous that it is,
00:16:39.66\00:16:42.16
that we should be able
to draw from that and say,
00:16:42.20\00:16:44.27
"Look, the Bible
say there's going to be
00:16:44.30\00:16:45.87
some odd things
00:16:45.90\00:16:47.24
that's going to take
place before Jesus comes."
00:16:47.27\00:16:50.67
Now, when we see
these odd things,
00:16:50.71\00:16:53.48
the strange things taking place,
00:16:53.51\00:16:55.41
don't tell me anybody
here, don't you think,
00:16:55.44\00:16:57.11
somebody tell me
there strange things
00:16:57.15\00:16:58.85
is taking place in this country.
00:16:58.88\00:17:00.38
If we can't say that,
I'm just going to sit down,
00:17:00.42\00:17:02.05
I just might as
well just sit down
00:17:02.08\00:17:03.59
if you can't see that
00:17:03.62\00:17:04.95
there're strange
things taking place.
00:17:04.99\00:17:06.76
There's things that you say,
00:17:06.79\00:17:08.82
I be careful again,
anybody should be able to see.
00:17:08.86\00:17:13.63
Anybody with any sense
ought to be able to see
00:17:13.66\00:17:16.80
that things
strange and unpredictable
00:17:16.83\00:17:19.73
are taking place,
unpredictable people,
00:17:19.77\00:17:23.57
like their mind is gone,
00:17:23.61\00:17:26.01
that maybe the
enemy has taken it over.
00:17:26.04\00:17:27.81
And you're trying to say
a seven or eight year old
00:17:27.84\00:17:29.64
could look at it and say,
"We need to go this direction."
00:17:29.68\00:17:32.35
I'm just, strange things that
00:17:32.38\00:17:34.82
we're told will
take place in the Bible.
00:17:34.85\00:17:38.72
So what should I do
when I see these things?
00:17:38.75\00:17:40.89
Sit down, be quiet, say nothing.
00:17:40.92\00:17:43.29
Great Controversy, again,
00:17:43.32\00:17:44.66
page 452 says this, we
should do all in our power.
00:17:44.69\00:17:48.90
And I look at
myself and I'd be thinking,
00:17:48.93\00:17:50.47
"Am I really doing
all in my power to do
00:17:50.50\00:17:54.04
what God would have
me to do right now?"
00:17:54.07\00:17:55.60
Some of us are not,
00:17:55.64\00:17:56.97
we're sitting
back on a recliner,
00:17:57.01\00:17:58.34
we're doing nothing.
00:17:58.37\00:17:59.71
We agree that these
things are taking place,
00:17:59.74\00:18:01.54
and we kind of believe it.
00:18:01.58\00:18:02.91
But we need to
do all in our power
00:18:02.94\00:18:05.05
when we see, notice this,
00:18:05.08\00:18:06.61
that there are measures
are being taken to restrict,
00:18:06.65\00:18:11.19
restrict what?
00:18:11.22\00:18:12.85
Liberty of
conscience, our freedoms.
00:18:12.89\00:18:16.26
When we see these
things taking place,
00:18:16.29\00:18:17.96
we need to do
all that we can to,
00:18:17.99\00:18:20.90
right, fight against that.
00:18:20.93\00:18:24.83
Conscience.
00:18:24.87\00:18:26.23
I don't want somebody
else to be my conscience.
00:18:26.27\00:18:30.21
If you let your conscience go,
the devil is going to take it,
00:18:30.24\00:18:32.54
if you know what I mean.
00:18:32.57\00:18:33.91
Somebody is going
to occupy your mind
00:18:33.94\00:18:36.14
and is today the
way it always has been,
00:18:36.18\00:18:38.45
either the Holy
Spirit occupies it
00:18:38.48\00:18:40.48
or the devil occupies it.
00:18:40.52\00:18:42.58
There's no two
other ways around it.
00:18:42.62\00:18:43.95
If there's other way
00:18:43.99\00:18:45.32
I may try to get
there, but there's not.
00:18:45.35\00:18:49.12
Jesus made it very simple
00:18:49.16\00:18:50.49
when He said He
who is not with Me
00:18:50.53\00:18:53.60
is that makes you say that,
00:18:53.63\00:18:56.16
"Oh, well, these people here
they're not really with this."
00:18:56.20\00:18:59.13
One way or the other,
that's what the Bible said.
00:18:59.17\00:19:02.34
And so we need to
follow what the Bible said,
00:19:02.37\00:19:04.21
because remember,
the reformation said
00:19:04.24\00:19:05.81
we need to get back to what?
00:19:05.84\00:19:07.18
And we know this, the Bible
and the Bible only or truths.
00:19:07.21\00:19:11.48
I've often said I don't care
00:19:11.51\00:19:12.85
where truth comes
from as long as it's truth.
00:19:12.88\00:19:16.02
I'll try to laugh it
up by the grace of God.
00:19:16.05\00:19:19.09
Truth is truth.
00:19:19.12\00:19:20.46
Truth is from God,
there's no doubt about it.
00:19:20.49\00:19:23.89
When we see that
our religious liberty
00:19:23.93\00:19:25.99
is being restricted,
00:19:26.03\00:19:27.60
we need to do
something about it.
00:19:27.63\00:19:30.60
Many people
won't understand this.
00:19:30.63\00:19:32.20
There's a book of
Daniel Chapter 12,
00:19:32.23\00:19:33.67
somewhere around verse 10,
somewhere around there says,
00:19:33.70\00:19:36.10
"The wicked
will not understand."
00:19:36.14\00:19:38.37
No matter what you do,
00:19:38.41\00:19:39.74
no matter how you
try to get this out,
00:19:39.77\00:19:41.11
the wicked is not
going to understand
00:19:41.14\00:19:42.48
where you're coming from.
00:19:42.51\00:19:44.81
They don't want to understand
where you're coming from.
00:19:44.85\00:19:46.61
But my Bible talks about here,
00:19:46.65\00:19:48.72
there's going to be those
who will, but the wise will.
00:19:48.75\00:19:52.79
Right? The wise will.
00:19:52.82\00:19:54.16
How are you wise?
00:19:54.19\00:19:55.92
Because of the
power of the Holy Spirit.
00:19:55.96\00:19:57.46
Holy Spirit is going to show
00:19:57.49\00:19:58.83
you these things
that will take place.
00:19:58.86\00:20:00.53
God has promised you that
00:20:00.56\00:20:02.46
He'll bring no
surprise right upon you.
00:20:02.50\00:20:04.77
He's going to warn
you first of these things
00:20:04.80\00:20:06.50
that are happening.
00:20:06.53\00:20:09.34
And you say, "Well, you know,
00:20:09.37\00:20:10.71
I get tired of
hearing about it."
00:20:10.74\00:20:12.07
Well, that's too bad.
00:20:12.11\00:20:15.64
Love you all.
00:20:15.68\00:20:18.35
Love and kisses, right?
00:20:18.38\00:20:19.71
Hugs.
00:20:19.75\00:20:21.82
People want to hear
that, ain't that right?
00:20:21.85\00:20:24.02
If I didn't love
and I didn't care,
00:20:24.05\00:20:25.65
I certainly find
something else to talk about.
00:20:25.69\00:20:29.32
But I know we'll talk
something we talk about,
00:20:29.36\00:20:31.69
we risk losing friends.
00:20:31.73\00:20:33.73
And people get angry
00:20:33.76\00:20:35.10
and they leave and
they don't come back.
00:20:35.13\00:20:38.03
But there's something
00:20:38.07\00:20:39.40
and I believe
that the Holy Spirit
00:20:39.43\00:20:40.77
impresses the mind
00:20:40.80\00:20:42.14
when you're praying about,
God, what do the people need?
00:20:42.17\00:20:44.04
And what do I need?
00:20:44.07\00:20:46.07
I never pray for
what does the people need
00:20:46.11\00:20:48.01
before I pray, what do I need?
00:20:48.04\00:20:50.68
I might help them
00:20:50.71\00:20:52.05
along their way in the same time
00:20:52.08\00:20:53.62
help me to find eternal life.
00:20:53.65\00:20:56.52
There's a little book
00:20:56.55\00:20:57.89
I've read a
paragraph out of the light
00:20:57.92\00:20:59.32
called Mount of
Blessings, page 33.
00:20:59.35\00:21:02.62
And this gives me
encouragement 'cause it says
00:21:02.66\00:21:04.39
the minds of the
people need to be agitated.
00:21:04.43\00:21:07.36
I've been called an
agitator a lot of times,
00:21:07.40\00:21:10.30
and I'm getting
where I kind of like it.
00:21:10.33\00:21:14.30
He's agitating.
00:21:14.34\00:21:16.04
You better, you know what?
00:21:16.07\00:21:17.41
You agitate somebody
you're going to wake them up.
00:21:17.44\00:21:20.34
Ain't that right?
00:21:20.38\00:21:21.71
When you're just
speaking smooth things
00:21:21.74\00:21:23.61
and patting them on
the head and loving,
00:21:23.65\00:21:24.98
they all go to,
everybody goes to sleep.
00:21:25.01\00:21:27.62
I'm not talking
about in a bad way at all.
00:21:27.65\00:21:29.52
I'm talking about
agitate the things
00:21:29.55\00:21:31.22
that are going on in the world.
00:21:31.25\00:21:32.82
Notice this, why?
00:21:32.85\00:21:34.56
Why do you think these
things are going on like
00:21:34.59\00:21:36.16
they are in the world?
00:21:36.19\00:21:37.53
Because God's trying to
get your attention and mine.
00:21:37.56\00:21:40.13
Let me finish reading
this. Notice it says here.
00:21:40.16\00:21:42.40
Yeah, but why is all
this stuff happening?
00:21:42.43\00:21:44.83
Every
controversy, every reproach,
00:21:44.87\00:21:49.04
every effort to
restrict liberty of conscience
00:21:49.07\00:21:53.61
is God's means of awakening
00:21:53.64\00:21:56.71
minds that
otherwise might slumber.
00:21:56.75\00:22:00.58
God's using these
things that's going on.
00:22:00.62\00:22:03.69
So I'm saying God
is in control, right?
00:22:03.72\00:22:05.49
God is using these things,
00:22:05.52\00:22:07.36
not to wake up our minds to say,
00:22:07.39\00:22:09.52
"Brother Mark, do you know this?
00:22:09.56\00:22:11.43
Brother Kenny,
do you know this?"
00:22:11.46\00:22:13.43
Yeah.
00:22:13.46\00:22:15.73
These are things,
God is using them.
00:22:15.76\00:22:17.73
The devil thinks
I'm going to use it
00:22:17.77\00:22:19.10
and destroy God's people.
00:22:19.13\00:22:20.54
It's to wake God's people up.
00:22:20.57\00:22:23.44
We must realize in this
great conflict we are in.
00:22:23.47\00:22:26.88
And all of these little things
00:22:26.91\00:22:28.48
that are happening in the world.
00:22:28.51\00:22:30.48
And things that are soon to come
00:22:30.51\00:22:32.11
is so laid out so plain,
00:22:32.15\00:22:34.55
that most people, even pastors
00:22:34.58\00:22:36.79
and teachers and
churches and everyone,
00:22:36.82\00:22:38.59
they stay out of Daniel,
00:22:38.62\00:22:39.95
they stay out of
Revelation, because what?
00:22:39.99\00:22:41.79
It reveals the future,
00:22:41.82\00:22:43.16
reveals things
that are happening.
00:22:43.19\00:22:44.53
And they say you
can't understand it.
00:22:44.56\00:22:46.09
Well, why would a God that
loves me wants me in heaven,
00:22:46.13\00:22:48.73
put something in a
book that we can understand?
00:22:48.76\00:22:51.50
Does that make sense?
00:22:51.53\00:22:53.27
That does make sense.
He wants us to understand.
00:22:53.30\00:22:55.20
But He's saying to you,
00:22:55.24\00:22:56.57
the serious ones will
get down and do some digging.
00:22:56.60\00:22:58.94
And when you dig a little
bit, and you hit a hard ground,
00:22:58.97\00:23:01.48
those that shovel
down and go get a pick.
00:23:01.51\00:23:03.85
My dad used to
call, he used to call it,
00:23:03.88\00:23:05.68
he said, "Go give
me that mattocks."
00:23:05.71\00:23:08.48
Said, "Go get you a
what?" "Go get that mattocks.
00:23:08.52\00:23:12.15
Don't you know
what a mattocks is?
00:23:12.19\00:23:16.26
No, I'm like,
it's kind of, you know,
00:23:16.29\00:23:17.63
a pick on one side,
00:23:17.66\00:23:18.99
and then the little
deal on the inside."
00:23:19.03\00:23:21.20
Okay, you know, get something
00:23:21.23\00:23:23.87
and whatever the
ground how hard it gets,
00:23:23.90\00:23:25.80
and get something that
will break that ground.
00:23:25.83\00:23:28.60
Because that's were going
to be where the truth is at.
00:23:28.64\00:23:30.64
It's going to be hidden.
00:23:30.67\00:23:32.84
And the ones will find it
00:23:32.87\00:23:34.21
are the ones
that serious about it.
00:23:34.24\00:23:36.58
The ones that are
getting up in the morning,
00:23:36.61\00:23:37.98
the ones who are
studying the Word of God,
00:23:38.01\00:23:39.78
the ones who won't let
the situations of the world
00:23:39.81\00:23:41.88
discourage you,
00:23:41.92\00:23:43.25
because you're going
to go to the Word of God
00:23:43.28\00:23:44.99
to know that you've
already won by the grace of God.
00:23:45.02\00:23:48.82
Regardless of what happens,
00:23:48.86\00:23:50.96
God says your bread
and water will be sure.
00:23:50.99\00:23:53.03
I don't know where my
house payments coming.
00:23:53.06\00:23:55.43
Well you've made it
for 40 years, come on.
00:23:55.46\00:23:58.67
That makes sense.
00:23:58.70\00:24:00.17
He never left
you. You're still here.
00:24:00.20\00:24:02.20
You still have plenty to eat,
you got roof over your head,
00:24:02.24\00:24:04.44
you have a car or
whatever it might be.
00:24:04.47\00:24:06.21
God has been good to you.
00:24:06.24\00:24:07.68
He's been good to me.
00:24:07.71\00:24:09.04
He will continue is
if we be obedient to Him.
00:24:09.08\00:24:12.58
Notice this, we'll talk about
00:24:12.61\00:24:13.95
Great
Controversy again 592 says,
00:24:13.98\00:24:16.18
in free America, it's
where I like to see it,
00:24:16.22\00:24:18.69
rulers and legislators,
00:24:18.72\00:24:20.59
see if somebody
can disagree with this,
00:24:20.62\00:24:22.82
rulers and legislators in
order to secure public favor
00:24:22.86\00:24:26.49
will yield to
the popular demand.
00:24:26.53\00:24:29.13
And we're talking about
00:24:29.16\00:24:30.67
enforcing of Sunday laws
00:24:30.70\00:24:32.23
and different
laws they're doing.
00:24:32.27\00:24:33.80
It says, and
liberty of conscience
00:24:33.84\00:24:35.87
which He has cost
00:24:35.90\00:24:37.34
so great a sacrifice
will no longer be respected.
00:24:37.37\00:24:40.81
If we are not in
that time right now,
00:24:40.84\00:24:43.18
we will never get there.
00:24:43.21\00:24:45.85
Did you get
that? Great sacrilege.
00:24:45.88\00:24:48.38
Liberty of conscience,
00:24:48.42\00:24:49.75
it doesn't
matter about it anymore.
00:24:49.78\00:24:51.79
It's what somebody says,
00:24:51.82\00:24:53.59
it's what law somebody can pass
and this is going to be best
00:24:53.62\00:24:57.49
they say for the whole
world if we do this thing.
00:24:57.53\00:25:01.56
You know, Satan's method
to gain control of the world,
00:25:01.60\00:25:04.93
listen, there's
always compulsion.
00:25:04.97\00:25:07.84
It's always through fear.
00:25:07.87\00:25:09.77
It's always through force,
00:25:09.80\00:25:11.24
you know, this is
the way he operates.
00:25:11.27\00:25:12.81
So when somebody
is trying to use force
00:25:12.84\00:25:14.88
to get you to do something,
00:25:14.91\00:25:16.31
you think by the grace of
God you shouldn't have to do.
00:25:16.34\00:25:20.42
It is the voice of the dragon.
00:25:20.45\00:25:21.98
It is the voice of
the devil, fear and force.
00:25:22.02\00:25:25.19
And that's both in, listen,
that's in religious field,
00:25:25.22\00:25:27.66
as well as the secular field.
00:25:27.69\00:25:30.59
We hear that a lot at churches,
00:25:30.63\00:25:31.96
I'm going to throw a
little bit of fear at you.
00:25:31.99\00:25:33.80
Well, if you don't do this,
00:25:33.83\00:25:35.16
well, you're not going to have
this position that position,
00:25:35.20\00:25:36.67
well, then I won't
have that position then.
00:25:36.70\00:25:39.27
Don't go against the conscience.
00:25:39.30\00:25:41.74
See, man tries to
enforce human laws
00:25:41.77\00:25:46.57
in defiance of the law of God.
00:25:46.61\00:25:48.84
Notice some of the things
that are being passed right now
00:25:48.88\00:25:51.05
and becoming law and,
00:25:51.08\00:25:52.91
you know,
contested in the courts,
00:25:52.95\00:25:55.12
even though we find out,
00:25:55.15\00:25:56.65
they're really
against the laws of God.
00:25:56.69\00:26:00.96
Think about it.
00:26:00.99\00:26:02.32
So we have to stay
with the laws of God, man,
00:26:02.36\00:26:04.03
when they, right, when
they cross back and forth,
00:26:04.06\00:26:06.16
what are you going to choose?
00:26:06.19\00:26:09.00
You know, you to
me, you have a choice.
00:26:09.03\00:26:11.87
Oh, glory, whether
you want to take a shot
00:26:11.90\00:26:14.04
or you don't want to.
00:26:14.07\00:26:16.14
Listen today, it's
buckling down right now.
00:26:16.17\00:26:18.71
Again, this is
talking about our freedoms.
00:26:18.74\00:26:21.78
This is not
just a bunch of hype,
00:26:21.81\00:26:23.65
and oh, listen,
just for 30 minutes,
00:26:23.68\00:26:27.82
I just sat down,
I turned the news on
00:26:27.85\00:26:29.38
and I jotted these things down.
00:26:29.42\00:26:30.92
Just 30 minutes.
That's this week.
00:26:30.95\00:26:32.95
Now remember, what
will you throw out today,
00:26:32.99\00:26:36.69
you will find if it's hit
hard by the American people,
00:26:36.73\00:26:39.86
the one's
leadership, they change again.
00:26:39.89\00:26:43.26
Does anybody get that?
00:26:43.30\00:26:44.83
So we're saying today is
what this says, tomorrow,
00:26:44.87\00:26:47.54
it may say
something completely different
00:26:47.57\00:26:49.20
because what?
00:26:49.24\00:26:50.57
People say, well, that's not,
00:26:50.61\00:26:52.31
we just read where
they want to be popular,
00:26:52.34\00:26:54.28
they want to be reelected,
they're trying to tell you
00:26:54.31\00:26:57.15
what you want to hear
so they can be reelected.
00:26:57.18\00:26:59.21
Again, how sad.
00:26:59.25\00:27:01.82
Every day is
becoming more intense
00:27:01.85\00:27:05.99
than it was the day before,
00:27:06.02\00:27:07.59
our freedoms are
being challenged.
00:27:07.62\00:27:10.73
They're being challenged
00:27:10.76\00:27:12.09
by powers not even delegated
00:27:12.13\00:27:15.96
to the federal government.
00:27:16.00\00:27:17.97
See we've got powers here
delegated by Jesus Christ,
00:27:18.00\00:27:21.00
let's use those.
00:27:21.04\00:27:22.37
Let's stand firm
on these right now.
00:27:22.40\00:27:24.71
This is not whether
I agree with the party,
00:27:24.74\00:27:26.31
that's in the
party, that's not in,
00:27:26.34\00:27:27.74
I don't care about the parties.
00:27:27.78\00:27:29.31
I compare, I care about
00:27:29.34\00:27:30.78
what God has said in His Word,
00:27:30.81\00:27:32.48
but also see
that we are told that
00:27:32.51\00:27:34.72
our Constitution
repudiated, right?
00:27:34.75\00:27:38.59
It's going to be
completely done away with
00:27:38.62\00:27:40.49
not throw it out, not burn it,
00:27:40.52\00:27:41.99
but every principle
of our Constitution,
00:27:42.02\00:27:44.39
this smart men, the
lawyers have found a way what?
00:27:44.43\00:27:47.30
They found around everyone,
and they found a way around it.
00:27:47.33\00:27:50.57
They can do it
just by one thing,
00:27:50.60\00:27:52.17
a national health crisis.
00:27:52.20\00:27:54.50
Are you still with me?
00:27:54.54\00:27:58.37
It could be climate
change, and national emergency.
00:27:58.41\00:28:04.31
Everything that
you say you hold dear,
00:28:04.35\00:28:06.82
that will protect
you is out the window.
00:28:06.85\00:28:09.62
So just keep that in mind.
00:28:09.65\00:28:11.35
Well, I'm going to be protected.
00:28:11.39\00:28:12.72
Only protection you have
and I have is God, right?
00:28:12.75\00:28:15.66
God will protect you.
00:28:15.69\00:28:17.03
I'm going to be your
shield and your buckler.
00:28:17.06\00:28:18.59
I'm the one that's
going to take care of you.
00:28:18.63\00:28:20.83
Come unto me all you
guys are heavy laden,
00:28:20.86\00:28:23.00
and I will give you
00:28:23.03\00:28:24.40
the rest that we're looking for.
00:28:24.43\00:28:25.90
Praise God for that.
00:28:25.93\00:28:29.04
But when you can
bypass these things that
00:28:29.07\00:28:31.27
we've held sacred
through the years,
00:28:31.31\00:28:35.04
implementing powers that
00:28:35.08\00:28:36.41
we have no right to do it
that will be contested in court
00:28:36.44\00:28:39.75
in the very near future,
they can't find enough lawyers
00:28:39.78\00:28:42.68
there're so many
lawsuits going on.
00:28:42.72\00:28:47.42
I didn't get in
the wrong business.
00:28:47.46\00:28:48.79
The courts are going to decide.
00:28:51.93\00:28:53.29
Your president just said it.
00:28:53.33\00:28:55.80
No somebody said, "Well,
now where did you heard?"
00:28:55.83\00:28:57.80
I heard this myself.
00:28:57.83\00:29:00.44
Is that okay?
00:29:00.47\00:29:01.80
You'd like to
hear things yourself.
00:29:01.84\00:29:03.17
You know the
president said this week.
00:29:03.20\00:29:07.01
Remember, he said
we have a pandemic.
00:29:07.04\00:29:10.98
Notice what he says,
00:29:11.01\00:29:12.35
"It's a pandemic
of the unvaccinated."
00:29:12.38\00:29:17.85
If you didn't hear it, so sorry.
00:29:17.89\00:29:20.86
We have a pandemic.
00:29:20.89\00:29:22.22
He said the pandemic is
00:29:22.26\00:29:23.59
with those who are unvaccinated.
00:29:23.63\00:29:26.36
Man, you better
listen, he means business,
00:29:26.39\00:29:28.43
something's going to happen.
00:29:28.46\00:29:29.80
Where are you going to stand?
00:29:29.83\00:29:32.10
He had just
announced a sweeping, you know,
00:29:32.13\00:29:35.00
some laws
mandate, vaccine mandates.
00:29:35.04\00:29:39.37
You know, he says as
00:29:39.41\00:29:40.74
he gets all these
things out there announces
00:29:40.78\00:29:43.55
he's sweeping
COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
00:29:43.58\00:29:47.38
He said this.
00:29:47.42\00:29:48.85
He said, "My
patience is wearing thin."
00:29:48.88\00:29:52.69
Did you hear it?
Somebody heard that.
00:29:52.72\00:29:54.52
My patience is running thin.
00:29:54.56\00:29:57.19
Now I don't want
anybody to cut that
00:29:57.23\00:29:58.56
out of what I just said right.
00:29:58.59\00:29:59.93
If somebody cut well,
that's a little bit too harsh.
00:29:59.96\00:30:01.30
No, he said that.
00:30:01.33\00:30:02.73
You can go back
and you can get it.
00:30:02.76\00:30:05.23
What is he saying when he said,
00:30:05.27\00:30:06.63
I know when I say my
patience is getting thin
00:30:06.67\00:30:08.80
for one of the kids at home,
00:30:08.84\00:30:10.17
I'm already got the belt off.
00:30:10.21\00:30:13.98
Are you still with me?
00:30:14.01\00:30:15.34
I've already got the belt off,
00:30:15.38\00:30:16.71
that means I
probably without any change,
00:30:16.75\00:30:18.08
I'm going to
start beating somebody.
00:30:18.11\00:30:19.95
All right.
00:30:19.98\00:30:22.38
His patience are running thin.
00:30:22.42\00:30:26.02
He said these new mandates,
if we can get everything
00:30:26.05\00:30:28.29
all pushed
through is going to affect
00:30:28.32\00:30:30.16
over 100 million people.
00:30:30.19\00:30:32.16
Are you going to be in that?
00:30:32.19\00:30:33.53
Are you going to
be involved in that?
00:30:33.56\00:30:34.90
Or throw it out as well
as the conspiracy theory?
00:30:34.93\00:30:36.97
Baloney.
00:30:37.00\00:30:38.57
Can I say that too?
00:30:38.60\00:30:40.50
Is that a French
word? What is that?
00:30:40.54\00:30:43.30
I better be careful what I say
00:30:43.34\00:30:44.67
if I don't know
the meaning, right?
00:30:44.71\00:30:46.41
But you know, we
can all understand that.
00:30:46.44\00:30:48.08
What do you mean it's going
to affect 100 million people?
00:30:48.11\00:30:52.25
And then he said,
00:30:52.28\00:30:53.62
what I like to do
when I'm going to pass
00:30:53.65\00:30:55.38
is if you employ 100 people,
00:30:55.42\00:30:59.22
you're going to be made to take.
00:30:59.25\00:31:00.59
If you have 100
people in your employee
00:31:00.62\00:31:01.96
that you have to
take the vaccine.
00:31:01.99\00:31:04.93
And if they don't,
00:31:04.96\00:31:06.29
then they start to
refuse the employers,
00:31:06.33\00:31:07.73
they can fine the employer
$14,000 for every offense.
00:31:07.76\00:31:14.04
They're going to make it
to where you just give in.
00:31:14.07\00:31:17.77
Unless you're really
convicted by the grace of God
00:31:17.81\00:31:20.28
what you're doing, and
willing to give your life
00:31:20.31\00:31:23.31
for just like Jesus is
willing to give His life,
00:31:23.35\00:31:25.98
that we would rather
die than knowingly sin.
00:31:26.01\00:31:28.85
We need to come to that point
00:31:28.88\00:31:30.22
because the pressure
is going to be too great
00:31:30.25\00:31:32.89
if they continue to
push the way it's pushing.
00:31:32.92\00:31:35.62
How many
employers and some business
00:31:35.66\00:31:37.16
with 100 employees
00:31:37.19\00:31:38.53
could afford
$14,000 every offense?
00:31:38.56\00:31:41.00
There could be
hundreds of those.
00:31:41.03\00:31:43.50
And the government
knows you can't do that.
00:31:43.53\00:31:45.30
That's why they're putting,
00:31:45.33\00:31:46.67
that's just the
beginning of sorrows,
00:31:46.70\00:31:48.94
as you will know.
00:31:48.97\00:31:50.74
And they say, "Well,
00:31:50.77\00:31:52.11
if you still
don't want to go along,
00:31:52.14\00:31:53.48
then actually we're going to
00:31:53.51\00:31:54.84
give you a
COVID test every week,
00:31:54.88\00:31:56.21
and so on so forth."
00:31:56.24\00:31:57.58
In other words,
your life's going to be
00:31:57.61\00:31:58.95
very tough where you're at,
00:31:58.98\00:32:00.32
because you're
causing some problems.
00:32:00.35\00:32:04.45
My wife mentioned there before,
00:32:04.49\00:32:05.82
and I'm believing it too,
I'm going to be very careful.
00:32:05.85\00:32:07.36
I think we have to be careful
00:32:07.39\00:32:08.72
because, you
know, just the question,
00:32:08.76\00:32:10.56
who's really spreading it now?
00:32:10.59\00:32:14.03
Hello, who's
really spreading it?
00:32:14.06\00:32:18.83
The ones who've been vaccinated
or the ones unvaccinated?
00:32:18.87\00:32:22.14
Come on.
00:32:22.17\00:32:23.51
I just, you got to
think, you can't just be closed.
00:32:23.54\00:32:25.37
No.
00:32:25.41\00:32:29.94
They're being
threatened of loss of jobs.
00:32:29.98\00:32:32.51
They're using fear tactics.
00:32:36.75\00:32:38.29
They even pay
you to take a shot.
00:32:41.02\00:32:43.63
Are you still with me?
00:32:43.66\00:32:47.43
And they'll put your
name, I'm gonna say in a hat.
00:32:47.46\00:32:50.60
They're gonna put your
name in a hat for drawing,
00:32:50.63\00:32:52.30
you can be a millionaire.
00:32:52.33\00:32:54.87
Put your name in a hat,
00:32:54.90\00:32:56.24
you draw it out,
you're a rich man.
00:32:56.27\00:32:58.07
Well, they buried
him next week but look,
00:32:58.11\00:33:01.44
leave it at that,
figure that one out later.
00:33:01.48\00:33:06.85
Go get a shot, put
your name in the jackpot,
00:33:06.88\00:33:08.78
it was going to be good.
00:33:08.82\00:33:10.15
But the, you know,
the medical workers,
00:33:10.19\00:33:12.15
those who are dealing
with Medicare and Medicaid
00:33:12.19\00:33:15.39
and so on, he said
we need to make sure
00:33:15.42\00:33:17.33
that they are all going to
be required to take the vaccine.
00:33:17.36\00:33:20.90
Remember what was today,
00:33:20.93\00:33:22.56
what was yesterday
could be changed tomorrow.
00:33:22.60\00:33:25.90
Then how much
stink is raised in there?
00:33:25.93\00:33:28.24
Here's my, but
I'll just give you
00:33:28.27\00:33:29.60
my little position on it
00:33:29.64\00:33:30.97
if you don't mind
and we need to go on.
00:33:31.01\00:33:32.71
This is just things I
want you to think about here.
00:33:32.74\00:33:35.28
I've heard it said an awful lot
00:33:35.31\00:33:36.64
and maybe it's
time that I said it.
00:33:36.68\00:33:38.28
It's my body and it's my choice.
00:33:38.31\00:33:41.68
Anybody still with me?
00:33:41.72\00:33:43.59
It's my body and my choice.
00:33:43.62\00:33:45.92
Now they don't mind using that
00:33:45.95\00:33:47.42
when it comes to
abortion and different things,
00:33:47.46\00:33:49.06
there's still death involved.
00:33:49.09\00:33:50.43
It's funny how they won't,
still my body, still my choice,
00:33:50.46\00:33:53.43
what country do I live in?
00:33:53.46\00:33:56.40
Indicators.
00:33:56.43\00:33:58.70
Webster said
indicator is a person
00:33:58.73\00:34:00.87
or thing that
indicates any kind of
00:34:00.90\00:34:03.81
a device like a gauge
or some kind of a dial
00:34:03.84\00:34:06.74
or something that
measures something.
00:34:06.78\00:34:08.68
It's the beginning of something
or it's the end of something.
00:34:08.71\00:34:11.31
And you know in Matthew
00:34:11.35\00:34:13.15
we read there a text,
what was that, Matthew 16?
00:34:13.18\00:34:17.82
Yeah, Matthew 16, I mean,
00:34:17.85\00:34:20.09
what, how
powerful that Jesus, right,
00:34:20.12\00:34:23.66
Jesus was talking
to those fair Sadducees
00:34:23.69\00:34:26.63
and the Pharisees and whoever,
00:34:26.66\00:34:28.06
the hypocrites, He said,
"Man, you know everything
00:34:28.10\00:34:30.53
about the weather and you know
00:34:30.57\00:34:31.90
what's going to be for tomorrow,
00:34:31.93\00:34:33.27
you know all these things,
00:34:33.30\00:34:34.64
but you don't know
the signs of the times."
00:34:34.67\00:34:36.37
We know everything.
00:34:36.40\00:34:37.74
We think we know
everything, do we not?
00:34:37.77\00:34:40.78
We get these
indicators here, on our car.
00:34:40.81\00:34:43.41
A turn signal is an indicator.
00:34:43.45\00:34:45.98
When I'm behind
somebody, when you indicate
00:34:46.01\00:34:47.72
you're going to
make a right hand turn,
00:34:47.75\00:34:49.38
please by the grace of God
make a right hand and not left.
00:34:49.42\00:34:53.66
You follow what I'm saying?
00:34:53.69\00:34:55.29
Or don't go down for two
or three miles down the road
00:34:55.32\00:34:57.06
with that blinker going on.
00:34:57.09\00:34:58.43
I don't know if
you're going to turn
00:34:58.46\00:34:59.79
or if you're not go to turn.
00:34:59.83\00:35:01.16
And then by the time you decide
00:35:01.20\00:35:02.53
you're going to
turn in, I'm passing you.
00:35:02.56\00:35:04.50
You see what I mean? Indicators.
00:35:04.53\00:35:07.64
God said there's indicators.
00:35:07.67\00:35:09.50
He said, you folks know all
about this stuff in the world.
00:35:09.54\00:35:12.87
A streetlight, right, yeah, red,
00:35:12.91\00:35:15.14
and you know,
and yellow and green.
00:35:15.18\00:35:20.02
Green always meant go to me.
00:35:20.05\00:35:21.78
Now, we don't
know what it means.
00:35:21.82\00:35:24.49
That can change too.
00:35:24.52\00:35:27.46
Signs and indicators. Pharisees.
00:35:27.49\00:35:33.13
Did they not realize
what they were saying right,
00:35:33.16\00:35:35.70
then, what Jesus
was saying to them
00:35:35.73\00:35:38.23
was an indicator of
the signs of the time?
00:35:38.27\00:35:41.30
That was an indicator.
00:35:41.34\00:35:42.67
Show us a sign, show us
00:35:42.70\00:35:44.04
some of these
reasons here of heaven,
00:35:44.07\00:35:46.94
not realizing
that their attitude
00:35:46.98\00:35:48.74
toward Christ as the Messiah
00:35:48.78\00:35:51.01
was an indicator
sign of the time.
00:35:51.05\00:35:54.58
They said, show us what?
00:35:54.62\00:35:56.82
Show some miracles,
show some signs and wonders.
00:35:56.85\00:36:00.99
Somebody simple
went through my mind,
00:36:01.02\00:36:04.43
at that point in
time He shown all kinds of
00:36:04.46\00:36:07.50
signs and miracles and wonders
for several years, had He not?
00:36:07.53\00:36:11.47
Sure He had been. What
would He have been doing?
00:36:11.50\00:36:13.27
He would heal, He
healed all manner of diseases,
00:36:13.30\00:36:15.87
He cast out demons, right?
00:36:15.90\00:36:17.71
He raised the dead
back to life again.
00:36:17.74\00:36:20.31
Oh, well, I mean, what
more would you really want?
00:36:20.34\00:36:22.88
He controlled nature,
00:36:22.91\00:36:24.25
He talked to
the waves in the sea
00:36:24.28\00:36:25.78
and they obeyed Him.
00:36:25.81\00:36:27.68
We're the only outfits that
00:36:27.72\00:36:29.15
don't obey Jesus
Christ is a human race,
00:36:29.18\00:36:31.82
the animals will do
it, nature will do it,
00:36:31.85\00:36:34.59
but we as human beings
think we know more than God.
00:36:34.62\00:36:39.49
He cast out the demons.
00:36:39.53\00:36:42.56
The demons recognized Him.
00:36:42.60\00:36:44.83
They were around and saw
00:36:44.87\00:36:46.20
all these things
but yet they said,
00:36:46.23\00:36:47.57
"Well, show us something."
00:36:47.60\00:36:49.30
Oh, I think you
could classify this
00:36:49.34\00:36:52.97
as signs from heaven.
00:36:53.01\00:36:55.31
They didn't want the evidence.
00:36:55.34\00:36:56.68
They said they wanted evidence,
00:36:56.71\00:36:58.05
but yet they
didn't want evidence.
00:36:58.08\00:36:59.41
You meet and you study
with people all the time,
00:36:59.45\00:37:00.78
says give us some evidence about
00:37:00.82\00:37:02.15
what you're talking about.
00:37:02.18\00:37:03.52
You give all kinds of
evidence from the Word of God,
00:37:03.55\00:37:04.89
and they still say,
00:37:04.92\00:37:06.25
"Well, no, I'm
not going that route."
00:37:06.29\00:37:08.39
They refuse to acknowledge
Jesus as a Son of God.
00:37:08.42\00:37:14.06
Remember Hosea,
was it Hosea 4:6 says,
00:37:14.10\00:37:18.23
"The people are
destroyed for lack of, good,
00:37:18.27\00:37:20.74
for lack of knowledge,
00:37:20.77\00:37:22.24
because you have
rejected knowledge,
00:37:22.27\00:37:24.77
God said, I'm
going to reject you."
00:37:24.81\00:37:26.64
Knowledge has come.
00:37:26.68\00:37:28.01
We live in a day and a time
00:37:28.04\00:37:29.38
where the books of
Daniel is open, Revelation,
00:37:29.41\00:37:31.45
we can study
Bibles in every house,
00:37:31.48\00:37:33.68
you can see
something all the time,
00:37:33.72\00:37:35.05
you can read about Jesus,
you can study about Jesus,
00:37:35.08\00:37:37.12
all kinds of
things are going on,
00:37:37.15\00:37:38.62
but we're lacking that we have,
00:37:38.65\00:37:40.26
we don't want the
knowledge anymore.
00:37:40.29\00:37:43.36
He said you reject
that, I'm going to reject you.
00:37:43.39\00:37:47.23
And I think it
even went too far,
00:37:47.26\00:37:48.60
He said, and then I'm
going to reject your children.
00:37:48.63\00:37:52.30
My!
00:37:52.33\00:37:53.67
What an awesome
time that we live in?
00:37:53.70\00:37:57.54
Jesus is the light of the world
00:37:57.57\00:37:59.21
what I read in
the Bible right here.
00:37:59.24\00:38:02.94
It's funny, everybody can
discern all these other things.
00:38:02.98\00:38:08.32
Today, I mean, we
do all kinds of things
00:38:08.35\00:38:12.02
we discern.
00:38:12.05\00:38:13.72
You have some
people they discern
00:38:13.76\00:38:15.32
who's got the top hit song.
00:38:15.36\00:38:18.26
Well, I might as
well go sit down,
00:38:18.29\00:38:19.63
there's just no use to go on.
00:38:19.66\00:38:21.20
I'm getting tired.
00:38:21.23\00:38:23.26
There are people
yet, ain't that true?
00:38:23.30\00:38:26.13
Even Christians, they know
who's got the top worldly song,
00:38:26.17\00:38:30.51
they know the top
10 or the top 100.
00:38:30.54\00:38:34.61
They know what's the hot TV show
00:38:34.64\00:38:36.54
and what's not.
00:38:36.58\00:38:39.61
They know whose
gets married in Hollywood
00:38:39.65\00:38:42.05
and who's divorced in Hollywood
00:38:42.08\00:38:44.59
and everybody else's
business but their own.
00:38:44.62\00:38:48.42
How do they know these things?
00:38:48.46\00:38:50.03
Because they are
followers of these things.
00:38:50.06\00:38:52.89
We will know
00:38:52.93\00:38:54.26
if we were
followers of Jesus Christ.
00:38:54.30\00:38:56.93
Instead of wasting all
of our time to say well,
00:38:56.97\00:38:59.67
you know, I know.
00:38:59.70\00:39:02.60
I had a friend one time
00:39:02.64\00:39:03.97
he about anybody,
any baseball player
00:39:04.01\00:39:05.71
you could name and
he named a lot of them.
00:39:05.74\00:39:07.81
He knew their batting average.
00:39:07.84\00:39:09.18
He knew how long they've
been in the Major League.
00:39:09.21\00:39:10.55
He knew everything about them.
00:39:10.58\00:39:11.91
Scripture he didn't
know, signs of the time.
00:39:11.95\00:39:15.32
This is a wicked and
adulterous generation.
00:39:15.35\00:39:17.85
Jesus said that it was.
00:39:17.89\00:39:20.86
Adulterous situation and wicked
00:39:20.89\00:39:23.16
because of the moral and
the spiritual perception.
00:39:23.19\00:39:27.33
Adulterous is
00:39:27.36\00:39:28.70
because we've chosen another
leader than Jesus Christ.
00:39:28.73\00:39:32.13
Spiritual adultery.
00:39:32.17\00:39:34.30
Charles
Spurgeon, people know him,
00:39:34.34\00:39:36.10
an old time preacher.
00:39:36.14\00:39:37.47
They say, oh,
well, Charles Spurgeon,
00:39:37.51\00:39:38.84
he said this one time,
little out of characteristic
00:39:38.87\00:39:41.08
and some of the
stuff I've read and so on,
00:39:41.11\00:39:42.44
but notice what he
said, he made this remark.
00:39:42.48\00:39:44.71
He said, "The time will come
00:39:44.75\00:39:46.88
when instead of the
shepherds feeding the sheep,
00:39:46.92\00:39:51.79
the church will have
clowns entertaining the goats."
00:39:51.82\00:39:56.86
I may have to repeat
that, that's way too deep.
00:39:56.89\00:40:00.06
That was a heavy statement
for him, I would assume.
00:40:00.10\00:40:02.30
For me it might be heavy.
00:40:02.33\00:40:04.90
Jesus said He's
going to feed the sheep.
00:40:04.93\00:40:06.40
You remember,
but He said now what,
00:40:06.43\00:40:07.77
people somebody getting on
the pulpit, they're clowns.
00:40:07.80\00:40:10.97
Sheep can't be
fed by the clowns,
00:40:11.01\00:40:12.81
only the goats can.
00:40:12.84\00:40:16.51
They're not going to make
it to heaven, you know that.
00:40:16.54\00:40:20.58
What's happened to America?
00:40:20.62\00:40:22.52
What's happened to our...
00:40:22.55\00:40:23.89
My dad always talked about
00:40:23.92\00:40:25.49
just give me
somebody to work with me that
00:40:25.52\00:40:27.29
just has good common sense.
00:40:27.32\00:40:29.16
They don't have to be
smart, don't have to have brain,
00:40:29.19\00:40:30.86
don't have to have anything,
00:40:30.89\00:40:32.23
nothing wrong
with all that stuff,
00:40:32.26\00:40:33.60
they haven't educated the book,
00:40:33.63\00:40:34.96
but just give me
somebody with good common sense,
00:40:35.00\00:40:36.53
I can work with him.
00:40:36.56\00:40:38.53
What's happened to
00:40:38.57\00:40:39.90
the good common
sense here in America?
00:40:39.93\00:40:41.84
What's happened to
our God in this country?
00:40:41.87\00:40:44.91
What's happened to our faith?
00:40:44.94\00:40:47.24
What's happened to our families?
00:40:47.28\00:40:49.88
My! What's
happened to our country?
00:40:49.91\00:40:52.58
What's happened to our freedoms?
00:40:52.61\00:40:56.69
You say, "Well, I
haven't really thought about."
00:40:56.72\00:40:58.05
What's wrong? Where you been?
00:40:58.09\00:41:01.69
Give you just
quick couple examples.
00:41:01.72\00:41:03.06
According to this is
the sgtreport.com 2021,
00:41:03.09\00:41:09.50
you've heard this I'm sure,
00:41:09.53\00:41:11.43
Facebook wants to run
everything in this world.
00:41:11.47\00:41:15.37
Now they're,
according to this report,
00:41:15.40\00:41:17.24
they said they want to control
the Christian worship service.
00:41:17.27\00:41:21.54
Man, if we're not in
trouble, and you know what?
00:41:21.58\00:41:23.61
Probably millions
will go for this because
00:41:23.65\00:41:25.21
they don't have
to get their lazy...
00:41:25.25\00:41:30.49
They don't have to
get themselves out of bed,
00:41:30.52\00:41:31.85
they just turn something
on and we don't have to go in.
00:41:31.89\00:41:35.32
You know what I'm saying?
00:41:35.36\00:41:36.69
The counterfeit running rampant.
00:41:36.73\00:41:40.20
They want to
control the Christian works,
00:41:40.23\00:41:42.90
the worship service.
00:41:42.93\00:41:44.63
Now let me read
it, but it says this,
00:41:44.67\00:41:47.50
now remember, we want to control
00:41:47.54\00:41:48.87
the Christian Services.
00:41:48.90\00:41:50.51
But here they said this,
00:41:50.54\00:41:52.04
that posting verses from
the King James Version Bible.
00:41:52.07\00:41:56.95
If you're posting some
King James Version Bible,
00:41:56.98\00:41:59.95
it says goes against
the community standard.
00:41:59.98\00:42:04.92
You want them
run in your service?
00:42:04.95\00:42:07.42
You say not.
00:42:07.46\00:42:09.72
They go on to say, notice this,
00:42:09.76\00:42:11.39
we have these standards
00:42:11.43\00:42:13.63
to prevent false
advertising and fraud
00:42:13.66\00:42:19.13
and security breaches.
00:42:19.17\00:42:21.04
I say, "Come on, come on, now.
00:42:21.07\00:42:22.40
Come on somebody here that now?"
00:42:22.44\00:42:25.34
Now, they had
trouble with one guy
00:42:25.37\00:42:28.28
who made a post
00:42:28.31\00:42:29.64
or we call it a
tweet or whatever.
00:42:29.68\00:42:31.21
I'm getting tired here
in this tweet business,
00:42:31.25\00:42:32.58
man, tweet,
tweet drive me crazy.
00:42:32.61\00:42:35.28
Ain't you? Somebody's tweeting.
00:42:35.32\00:42:37.29
I always thought birds tweet.
00:42:37.32\00:42:40.42
You know what I'm
talking about now.
00:42:40.46\00:42:42.82
Some of them are more
worthless than bird tweets.
00:42:42.86\00:42:46.70
Well, here's the
trouble they had,
00:42:46.73\00:42:48.06
I think, well,
here's the trouble they had.
00:42:48.10\00:42:50.10
And they took this guy off
00:42:50.13\00:42:52.00
because he quoted Proverbs 20:1.
00:42:52.03\00:42:56.07
Listen, "Wine is a," what?
00:42:56.10\00:42:58.67
"A mocker,
strong drink is raging,
00:42:58.71\00:43:01.84
whosoever deceiveth
thereby is not wise."
00:43:01.88\00:43:05.45
That shouldn't be taken off.
00:43:05.48\00:43:07.25
They want to run
your church service
00:43:07.28\00:43:08.82
but you can't say this.
00:43:08.85\00:43:11.55
They said it was just wrong.
00:43:11.59\00:43:12.92
You can't say that. Really?
00:43:12.95\00:43:16.19
To me, you say
that's not a big deal.
00:43:16.22\00:43:17.99
Where is it all
headed as it begins to
00:43:18.03\00:43:20.36
try to take your
religion away from you,
00:43:20.40\00:43:23.43
your freedom of
conscience and voice and speech
00:43:23.47\00:43:26.43
which we should
value to the very last?
00:43:26.47\00:43:30.11
Man, look at the other countries
00:43:30.14\00:43:31.47
in times past,
look what's happened.
00:43:31.51\00:43:32.87
We're right in the
footsteps right now.
00:43:32.91\00:43:34.54
We're right on the verge.
00:43:34.58\00:43:35.91
We're doing
socialistic things right now.
00:43:35.94\00:43:38.95
Is somebody's still
with me? Is that too deep?
00:43:38.98\00:43:41.68
No, it's not, you know that.
00:43:41.72\00:43:45.19
It's not the land of
the free, I wish it was.
00:43:45.22\00:43:49.02
But the Bible is clear
in Revelation 13:11-18.
00:43:49.06\00:43:54.80
You see, right there's a beast
00:43:54.83\00:43:56.53
that's coming up
out of the earth.
00:43:56.56\00:43:57.93
I wish we had a
whole lot more time.
00:43:57.97\00:43:59.43
Let's just tell you quickly,
we'll get more into this
00:43:59.47\00:44:01.30
as we only have
ten minutes or so left.
00:44:01.34\00:44:03.17
Coming up out of the earth,
00:44:03.20\00:44:04.54
that's the United
States in Bible prophecy.
00:44:04.57\00:44:07.18
It comes up as a
lamb with two horns.
00:44:07.21\00:44:09.74
But, notice this, it
comes up in that freedom,
00:44:09.78\00:44:11.85
it comes up in a
place not very, you know,
00:44:11.88\00:44:13.68
not very people
wasn't populated.
00:44:13.72\00:44:16.08
When the first beast,
00:44:16.12\00:44:17.45
it was a papacy that came
up, right, Revelation 13:1-10.
00:44:17.49\00:44:20.52
It come up in
heavy populated area,
00:44:20.56\00:44:22.36
it came up out of the water.
00:44:22.39\00:44:23.89
Revelation 17:50,
00:44:23.93\00:44:25.26
"The waters which thou sawest
00:44:25.29\00:44:26.63
are peoples and
multitudes and nations.
00:44:26.66\00:44:29.06
So this is different,
00:44:29.10\00:44:30.43
a country that came up
00:44:30.47\00:44:31.80
for escape for religious freedom
00:44:31.83\00:44:33.50
because of the persecution
00:44:33.54\00:44:34.87
during the Dark
Ages in the old world.
00:44:34.90\00:44:37.87
But it says after a time
00:44:37.91\00:44:39.24
it begins to
speak like the dragon.
00:44:39.27\00:44:42.38
Are we not there?
00:44:42.41\00:44:43.98
It's speaking as
a dragon right now.
00:44:44.01\00:44:45.71
That's what concerns me.
00:44:45.75\00:44:47.08
That's what, you know,
I'm concerned about it.
00:44:47.12\00:44:49.75
Why? Because
people don't know this.
00:44:49.78\00:44:51.69
They don't study these things.
00:44:51.72\00:44:53.36
And they're
encouraged not to study that.
00:44:53.39\00:44:54.96
I'm encouraging
you to study them.
00:44:54.99\00:44:58.39
Everybody sees it,
are attacking free press
00:44:58.43\00:45:00.86
and free speech
and free conscience,
00:45:00.90\00:45:03.57
freedom of religion.
00:45:03.60\00:45:05.90
It should upset us,
there's no doubt about it.
00:45:05.93\00:45:10.41
I don't want the tweets
00:45:10.44\00:45:12.77
and all these other things
that are going on Facebook
00:45:12.81\00:45:14.74
to control any part
to do with religion.
00:45:14.78\00:45:18.11
All you have to do, they said,
we want to do that because look
00:45:18.15\00:45:20.22
what we've done in
the political world
00:45:20.25\00:45:22.45
and in society.
00:45:22.48\00:45:24.15
Yeah, look what they've done.
00:45:24.19\00:45:25.52
Yeah, big tech religion
coming together converging.
00:45:25.55\00:45:30.59
Yeah, they said
00:45:30.63\00:45:31.96
we want to move your
servers to the internet.
00:45:31.99\00:45:37.93
What kind of a trap has
been set for millions of people?
00:45:37.97\00:45:41.94
Whether it's aware or
unaware, there's a trap.
00:45:41.97\00:45:46.47
And many are
choosing the wrong side
00:45:46.51\00:45:48.38
because there are no
warnings and no signs,
00:45:48.41\00:45:51.05
nobody blowing the trumpet.
00:45:51.08\00:45:55.28
People are doing
wrong, some know they are
00:45:55.32\00:45:57.22
and others don't
know that they're doing.
00:45:57.25\00:45:59.82
It reminds me of something
you know, we always say,
00:45:59.85\00:46:01.32
"Well, I knew but I
went ahead and did it."
00:46:01.36\00:46:03.59
You may have been
one of those at one time.
00:46:03.63\00:46:04.96
I've done some of
those things, I knew better.
00:46:04.99\00:46:08.36
I might use a story,
00:46:08.40\00:46:09.73
you might have heard
of it, the crocodile.
00:46:09.76\00:46:12.13
Crocodile he offers
00:46:12.17\00:46:13.70
a monkey a ride on
his back across the river.
00:46:13.74\00:46:17.01
Only, eventually,
he ate the monkey.
00:46:22.44\00:46:26.11
Yeah.
00:46:26.15\00:46:30.05
Before that, the
monkey was surprised
00:46:30.09\00:46:31.65
he was going to get eaten.
00:46:31.69\00:46:34.02
The crocodile
just simple responds,
00:46:34.06\00:46:36.26
looks at him and says,
00:46:36.29\00:46:38.23
"You knew I was a crocodile,
and you knew I like monkeys."
00:46:38.26\00:46:43.30
Isn't that kind of like put it
in there like today, you know?
00:46:43.33\00:46:46.67
We know where it's headed.
00:46:46.70\00:46:49.34
We were told was
going to take place.
00:46:49.37\00:46:52.77
Even in the political
film in the Bible way before it
00:46:52.81\00:46:56.11
and yet we
cannot put them together
00:46:56.14\00:46:57.48
or we refuse.
00:46:57.51\00:46:58.85
I tell you what?
00:46:58.88\00:47:00.22
The crocodile is
going to eat you.
00:47:00.25\00:47:02.52
According to
cbnnews.com it says again,
00:47:02.55\00:47:06.79
social media giant
00:47:06.82\00:47:08.19
Twitter temporary
suspended a Christian,
00:47:08.22\00:47:10.76
notice this, I got to get this.
00:47:10.79\00:47:12.13
Oh my, Lord, have mercy.
00:47:12.16\00:47:13.86
Suspended the
Christian radio hosts,
00:47:13.90\00:47:16.23
a tweet again,
Lord have mercy pray,
00:47:16.26\00:47:19.53
for posting a tweet describing
00:47:19.57\00:47:21.30
a New Zealand transgender
weightlifter as a man.
00:47:21.34\00:47:26.07
He was suspended from Twitter
00:47:26.11\00:47:27.51
because there's
a New Zealand man
00:47:27.54\00:47:29.38
that was a weightlifter.
00:47:29.41\00:47:30.75
He's transgender.
00:47:30.78\00:47:32.15
So you have to be careful.
00:47:32.18\00:47:35.02
You can't say
heavy, you can't say fat,
00:47:35.05\00:47:36.82
you can't say skinny,
00:47:36.85\00:47:38.19
you can't say crazy.
00:47:38.22\00:47:43.53
You know, not that you want to,
00:47:43.56\00:47:45.63
I'm just simply saying
00:47:45.66\00:47:48.16
you can't do it, in transgender,
00:47:48.20\00:47:49.53
you just can't do it.
00:47:49.56\00:47:50.90
He said and this guy
started fighting back
00:47:50.93\00:47:52.90
and he said wait a minute,
00:47:52.93\00:47:54.87
"The reason they
blocked my tweet," he said,
00:47:54.90\00:47:58.44
they said, "This is
reason I blocked your tweet is
00:47:58.47\00:48:01.68
because you violate our
rules against hateful conduct."
00:48:01.71\00:48:06.98
So for this guy,
radio host calling
00:48:07.02\00:48:09.25
this transgender
a man, and he was.
00:48:09.28\00:48:11.95
I'll leave it.
00:48:16.56\00:48:19.06
They say it's a hateful conduct
00:48:19.09\00:48:20.56
so we're going
to take that down.
00:48:20.60\00:48:21.93
But notice, the
man that was blocked
00:48:21.96\00:48:24.83
come back and said,
"It's because I stated, listen,
00:48:24.87\00:48:27.94
that he was a biological male,
00:48:27.97\00:48:31.04
and a biological male is a man."
00:48:31.07\00:48:33.84
Yeah.
00:48:33.88\00:48:36.44
See, some of us
are a little bit quiet,
00:48:36.48\00:48:37.85
afraid to take a
stand on it like well,
00:48:37.88\00:48:39.41
we need to be careful
somebody is going to jump us,
00:48:39.45\00:48:41.18
don't worry about it.
00:48:41.22\00:48:42.68
Biological man is a male.
00:48:42.72\00:48:46.05
He might think
00:48:46.09\00:48:47.42
he's something
else that's too bad.
00:48:47.46\00:48:49.96
Bottom line,
00:48:49.99\00:48:51.33
he said the
biological man is still a man.
00:48:51.36\00:48:56.20
He said even if Twitter
00:48:56.23\00:48:57.60
doesn't like it,
ain't that right?
00:48:57.63\00:49:00.60
And so I'm encouraging
00:49:00.64\00:49:02.94
the biological
men today that might
00:49:02.97\00:49:05.64
think you're something else,
00:49:05.67\00:49:07.58
you stay out of the
women's dressing room.
00:49:07.61\00:49:10.68
You biological men,
00:49:10.71\00:49:12.15
you stay out of
the ladies showers.
00:49:12.18\00:49:15.55
Biological man,
00:49:15.58\00:49:20.26
why don't you
compete against the men
00:49:20.29\00:49:22.19
and quit
competing against the women?
00:49:22.22\00:49:27.20
I'm not trying
to pick on all this,
00:49:27.23\00:49:28.56
I'm saying, this is reality.
00:49:28.60\00:49:29.93
These are things
that are going on
00:49:29.96\00:49:31.30
and so we think
00:49:31.33\00:49:32.70
we're saying in
this world, right?
00:49:32.73\00:49:34.80
We're saying in this world
and we take it to the courts
00:49:34.84\00:49:37.07
and those are
supposed to be saying say,
00:49:37.11\00:49:38.57
"Well he felt like
he was a girl today
00:49:38.61\00:49:40.34
so go on in there."
00:49:40.38\00:49:41.94
No.
00:49:41.98\00:49:46.01
Is that too much or
I just leave it there,
00:49:46.05\00:49:47.38
you guys can't take it?
00:49:47.42\00:49:48.75
I know, you can't take no more.
00:49:48.78\00:49:50.12
No, you... I'm serious about it.
00:49:50.15\00:49:53.56
How would you like it if you had
00:49:57.03\00:50:00.30
10, 11, 12, 13,
14 year old girls,
00:50:00.33\00:50:02.76
and they're in
their girl PE class,
00:50:02.80\00:50:04.67
and here comes,
00:50:04.70\00:50:06.03
oh, Joe, because he
feels a little feminine today.
00:50:06.07\00:50:10.24
I'll just join
them. No, throw him out.
00:50:10.27\00:50:14.51
Yeah, he wouldn't
even get close to the door
00:50:18.38\00:50:20.18
if I was there.
00:50:20.22\00:50:21.55
I know it's too much
00:50:24.49\00:50:25.82
you don't want to talk about it.
00:50:25.85\00:50:27.19
Still, what I'm saying
00:50:27.22\00:50:28.56
is this stuff is
happening in our country.
00:50:28.59\00:50:32.83
And that's what we're
totally saying would fall apart.
00:50:32.86\00:50:36.06
The men will no longer
think properly anymore.
00:50:36.10\00:50:40.10
What's happened here in America,
00:50:40.14\00:50:42.20
a place that God has
raised for religious freedom,
00:50:42.24\00:50:45.51
using Bible for the Word of God,
00:50:45.54\00:50:48.34
for the foundation?
00:50:48.38\00:50:52.35
Something we can find out
that tells us what sin is.
00:50:52.38\00:50:56.42
Call sin by its right name
without fear of retaliation.
00:50:56.45\00:51:02.29
In my own opinion,
00:51:02.32\00:51:03.66
I know when it
started, it started
00:51:03.69\00:51:05.09
when they started
taking the Ten Commandments
00:51:05.13\00:51:06.53
out of the schools.
00:51:06.56\00:51:07.90
I think it really started
00:51:07.93\00:51:09.26
when they begin
to say you can't read
00:51:09.30\00:51:10.63
the Bible anymore in school,
00:51:10.67\00:51:12.00
you can't have any
Bible studies in school.
00:51:12.03\00:51:13.47
We really don't want you even
talking about Jesus at school.
00:51:13.50\00:51:15.87
And when they take
prayer out of the school,
00:51:15.90\00:51:18.44
when you do all that,
you've taken God out of it,
00:51:18.47\00:51:20.61
you've taken Him
out of our country.
00:51:20.64\00:51:23.35
We pushed Him
out, don't you think
00:51:23.38\00:51:24.71
He's going to say
00:51:24.75\00:51:26.08
one of these
days, that's enough?
00:51:26.11\00:51:27.45
I mean, I really believe what,
00:51:27.48\00:51:28.82
how far can you, I
don't wanna say it nice,
00:51:28.85\00:51:30.42
how far can you push God?
00:51:30.45\00:51:32.69
He allows us to
push Him and push Him
00:51:32.72\00:51:35.69
because of His
mercy and His grace.
00:51:35.72\00:51:37.23
But one of these days
00:51:37.26\00:51:38.59
He's going to stand
up and say that's it.
00:51:38.63\00:51:40.43
He's going to say
it one of these days,
00:51:40.46\00:51:41.90
and are we ready for that?
00:51:41.93\00:51:45.00
We're going to close here
in a couple of minutes here.
00:51:45.03\00:51:46.57
I just want to try to read
something here I wrote down
00:51:46.60\00:51:48.70
if that'll be
good to think about.
00:51:48.74\00:51:53.24
Again we talked
about our country
00:51:53.27\00:51:54.61
is going to repudiate you know,
00:51:54.64\00:51:56.41
every principle
of its Constitution,
00:51:56.44\00:51:58.71
as a Protestant and
Republican government,
00:51:58.75\00:52:02.18
Five Testimonies
9 says this, notice,
00:52:02.22\00:52:03.95
"Our ministers,"
00:52:03.99\00:52:05.35
I'm picking on the
ministers right now,
00:52:05.39\00:52:07.12
"are not doing their whole duty.
00:52:07.16\00:52:09.22
The attention of the
people should be called to
00:52:09.26\00:52:11.86
the momentous
events which is so," right?
00:52:11.89\00:52:15.96
Which is so near at hand.
00:52:16.00\00:52:18.83
The signs of the time should be
kept fresh before their minds.
00:52:18.87\00:52:23.27
They will say, "Well,
we don't want to hear."
00:52:23.30\00:52:24.64
It should be kept fresh
before everybody's mind of
00:52:24.67\00:52:27.14
what we're living,
00:52:27.18\00:52:28.51
just as a
reminder, this is not normal.
00:52:28.54\00:52:30.75
The Bible has condemned
00:52:30.78\00:52:32.11
this stuff as
sin, all this lying.
00:52:32.15\00:52:33.52
You get on TV right now
all you hear is Joe Blow lied,
00:52:33.55\00:52:36.12
and she lied, and he lied,
and they lied on top of a lie.
00:52:36.15\00:52:39.45
And what are we
supposed to believe?
00:52:39.49\00:52:42.19
Isaiah 26:21, as we close this.
00:52:42.22\00:52:46.06
Don't be surprised that
these great decisive things,
00:52:46.09\00:52:49.30
and the last movements
00:52:49.33\00:52:50.67
will be rapid one so quick
it will make your head swim.
00:52:50.70\00:52:53.87
Jesus said, "Behold,
00:52:53.90\00:52:55.90
the Lord cometh out of his place
00:52:55.94\00:52:58.27
to punish the
inhabitants of the earth
00:52:58.31\00:53:01.24
for their iniquity.
00:53:01.28\00:53:03.04
The earth also
shall disclose her blood,
00:53:03.08\00:53:07.05
and shall no
more cover her slain."
00:53:07.08\00:53:10.22
Probation is closing
00:53:10.25\00:53:11.62
for the United
States of America,
00:53:11.65\00:53:14.12
for the land of
opportunity and free.
00:53:14.16\00:53:18.39
And if you lost
sight of that today,
00:53:18.43\00:53:20.00
I pray by the grace of God
00:53:20.03\00:53:21.36
that you regain
the sight to say,
00:53:21.40\00:53:23.60
"God is still with us."
00:53:23.63\00:53:25.67
We are willing to be obedient to
00:53:25.70\00:53:27.24
what He has said in His Word.
00:53:27.27\00:53:29.34
He says, "I will
heal your backsliding."
00:53:29.37\00:53:33.04
I want to be healed.
00:53:33.07\00:53:34.81
If I've taken a step backwards,
00:53:34.84\00:53:36.18
I want to take
two steps forward.
00:53:36.21\00:53:39.45
Because rulers and statesmen,
00:53:39.48\00:53:41.65
men who occupy positions
of trust and authority,
00:53:41.68\00:53:45.25
have their attention fixed
00:53:45.29\00:53:46.62
upon the events
taking place in our land.
00:53:46.65\00:53:49.39
They're watching the strange,
00:53:49.42\00:53:50.89
restless relations that
exist among the nations.
00:53:50.93\00:53:54.46
The world is on the
verge of a stupendous crisis.
00:53:54.50\00:53:59.10
Who's watching these things?
00:53:59.13\00:54:01.17
Our leaders are stating,
00:54:01.20\00:54:02.80
they know much
better than you and I,
00:54:02.84\00:54:04.44
all the stuff is
going on in the world today.
00:54:04.47\00:54:05.87
Their mind is like, "Oh,
what are they going to do?"
00:54:05.91\00:54:08.44
I want to pray for those of you
00:54:08.48\00:54:09.81
who are at home as we close,
00:54:09.84\00:54:11.28
I want to pray for myself too,
00:54:11.31\00:54:12.65
I need wisdom, I need courage,
00:54:12.68\00:54:15.52
I need faith and
strength to be able to endure.
00:54:15.55\00:54:19.45
Because many of these things,
00:54:19.49\00:54:20.82
we realize what they say,
will come back to haunt you.
00:54:20.86\00:54:24.39
They will say,
"He said, they said."
00:54:24.43\00:54:27.96
Do you see that
in the news nowadays?
00:54:28.00\00:54:30.00
He said this before,
two years ago he said this,
00:54:30.03\00:54:32.77
now he's saying this.
00:54:32.80\00:54:35.94
We have to believe in what
00:54:35.97\00:54:37.41
we're teaching and
what we're preaching,
00:54:37.44\00:54:39.37
and back it up
by the Word of God.
00:54:39.41\00:54:41.94
And I know you want
to be ready for that day.
00:54:41.98\00:54:44.05
I want to be ready for that day.
00:54:44.08\00:54:47.28
Remember, we always
say if you miss heaven,
00:54:47.32\00:54:48.72
you missed your
reason for being here.
00:54:48.75\00:54:50.19
There's no reason to be here
00:54:50.22\00:54:51.55
if you're not going
to repopulate heaven.
00:54:51.59\00:54:53.05
So make that
decision for Him today.
00:54:53.09\00:54:54.46
Let's pray, shall we?
00:54:54.49\00:54:57.89
Loving Father in heaven,
again, all we can do is say
00:54:57.93\00:55:01.06
thank You praise Your holy name.
00:55:01.10\00:55:03.00
Thank You that You're bringing
00:55:03.03\00:55:05.17
just little
tidbits of all these things
00:55:05.20\00:55:07.34
that are happening in the world,
00:55:07.37\00:55:08.70
it's just too much.
00:55:08.74\00:55:10.07
Can't cover, take
hours and hours and hours,
00:55:10.11\00:55:12.24
just to scrape
through just a little bit.
00:55:12.27\00:55:14.91
Because You said
the last movements
00:55:14.94\00:55:16.28
would be rapid ones
00:55:16.31\00:55:17.65
that happen so
quick and so fast.
00:55:17.68\00:55:19.01
It's going to try to
catch the people by surprise.
00:55:19.05\00:55:21.98
But, Lord, I pray through
the power of thy Holy Spirit,
00:55:22.02\00:55:23.95
this group, and
many other groups
00:55:23.99\00:55:25.89
around the world will
not be caught by surprise.
00:55:25.92\00:55:28.36
They're going to be preparing
based upon their study,
00:55:28.39\00:55:31.13
based upon what they're hearing,
00:55:31.16\00:55:32.49
based upon what
they're seeing in the world,
00:55:32.53\00:55:35.13
that they need to be ready
for the soon coming of Jesus.
00:55:35.16\00:55:39.00
We're in the judgment
hour, it's soon to close.
00:55:39.03\00:55:42.74
Probation is going to close,
00:55:42.77\00:55:44.11
no one else will
ever come to Jesus.
00:55:44.14\00:55:46.21
Then He's going to roar
back and take His people home.
00:55:46.24\00:55:48.41
Help us to be ready for
that great day in Jesus' name.
00:55:48.44\00:55:50.85
Amen.
00:55:50.88\00:55:52.85
Hello, and welcome back.
00:55:52.88\00:55:54.58
Praise God for His promises
00:55:54.62\00:55:56.52
such as one that
is found in Amos 3:7,
00:55:56.55\00:56:00.49
where we can read that
God will do nothing unless
00:56:00.52\00:56:03.19
He reveals it
through His prophets first.
00:56:03.22\00:56:06.03
And I guarantee that most of us
00:56:06.06\00:56:08.60
are just simply not
spending enough time
00:56:08.63\00:56:11.50
in the Word of God as we should.
00:56:11.53\00:56:13.47
I hope that this
message will encourage you that
00:56:13.50\00:56:16.74
the indicators
are proclaiming that
00:56:16.77\00:56:18.94
the time of Christ's
second coming is at hand.
00:56:18.97\00:56:22.14
The pressure is increasing
00:56:22.18\00:56:24.15
upon the inhabitants
of this world signaling.
00:56:24.18\00:56:27.72
It is signaling that
00:56:27.75\00:56:29.08
something major
is about to happen.
00:56:29.12\00:56:31.65
So I want to encourage you
00:56:31.69\00:56:33.02
to spend more
time in God's Word,
00:56:33.05\00:56:35.02
spend more time
reading books such as this one,
00:56:35.06\00:56:38.39
the Great Controversy that
00:56:38.43\00:56:40.10
I want to offer to

also reveal indicators,
00:56:47.47\00:56:50.61
and what we should be
expecting in the near future.
00:56:50.64\00:56:53.98

lives in Georgia
just this morning.
00:58:06.88\00:58:09.12
And she says, "Tell your husband
00:58:09.15\00:58:10.89
he's right on target.
00:58:10.92\00:58:12.25
I'm going to share,
share, share this message."
