We're so glad to see you today.
00:00:14.28\00:00:16.14
Let's get started
on the topic which is,
00:00:16.18\00:00:18.21
this is part two,
00:00:18.25\00:00:19.68
"Demons, evil spirits,
00:00:19.71\00:00:23.59
the occult and
talking to the dead."
00:00:23.62\00:00:27.59
In the last
program we discovered
00:00:27.62\00:00:29.16
that the dead are asleep.
00:00:29.19\00:00:32.23
And we also discovered
00:00:32.26\00:00:33.80
that they had been a
tremendous war in heaven.
00:00:33.83\00:00:37.57
The Bible says the war
between Satan and Christ,
00:00:37.60\00:00:41.60
and billions, and
billions of spirits.
00:00:41.64\00:00:46.01
Now I want you
to take your Bible
00:00:46.04\00:00:47.74
and come over here
to Isaiah Chapter 14
00:00:47.78\00:00:51.31
because today we're talking
about Satan or the devil.
00:00:51.35\00:00:56.99
Isaiah 14:12 and onwards.
00:00:57.02\00:01:02.52
Look at this
text, would you please?
00:01:02.56\00:01:04.79
It says, "How you
are fallen from heaven,
00:01:04.83\00:01:08.46
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
00:01:08.50\00:01:12.47
How you are cut
down to the ground,
00:01:12.50\00:01:14.47
you who weakened the nations!
00:01:14.50\00:01:17.67
For you have said in your heart,
00:01:17.71\00:01:19.37
I will ascend into heaven,
00:01:19.41\00:01:21.04
I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God.
00:01:21.08\00:01:23.95
I will sit also on the
mount of the congregation
00:01:23.98\00:01:27.32
on the farthest
sides of the north.
00:01:27.35\00:01:29.68
I will ascend above
heights of the clouds.
00:01:29.72\00:01:34.69
I will be like the Most High."
00:01:34.72\00:01:38.96
This is talking
about the great arch rebel.
00:01:38.99\00:01:44.27
The King James
Version calls him Lucifer.
00:01:44.30\00:01:48.44
In other
translations he is called,
00:01:48.47\00:01:51.41
the day-star,
00:01:51.44\00:01:53.54
the
bright-star, the shining one.
00:01:53.58\00:01:58.41
Of whom does it sound?
00:01:58.45\00:02:01.95
The bright one
or the shining one,
00:02:01.98\00:02:05.25
the magnificent one,
00:02:05.29\00:02:08.92
this is the one who
set out to be like Christ.
00:02:08.96\00:02:13.73
This is the antichrist.
00:02:13.76\00:02:15.56
And if you were to see him,
00:02:15.60\00:02:17.53
he would not be as
most churches have taught.
00:02:17.57\00:02:21.24
They've taught that he's
an awful looking monster.
00:02:21.27\00:02:25.61
Come over with me now
to the Book of Ezekiel 28,
00:02:25.64\00:02:30.35
Ezekiel 28:12 and onwards,
00:02:30.38\00:02:35.15
Ezekiel 28:12 and onwards.
00:02:35.18\00:02:40.56
It's talking here
about the king of Tyre,
00:02:40.59\00:02:43.89
but behind the king of
Tyre was an evil spirit,
00:02:43.93\00:02:48.96
the great rebel,
the greater arch rebel.
00:02:49.00\00:02:51.80
Ezekiel 28:12, "Son of man,
00:02:51.83\00:02:54.60
take up a lamentation
for the king of Tyre,
00:02:54.64\00:02:56.60
and say to him,
00:02:56.64\00:02:57.97
"Thus says Lord God"
00:02:58.01\00:02:59.34
You were the seal of perfection,
00:02:59.37\00:03:00.71
full of wisdom..."
00:03:00.74\00:03:02.08
What does it say?
00:03:02.11\00:03:03.45
"Perfect in beauty.
00:03:03.48\00:03:04.81
Shining one.
00:03:04.85\00:03:06.18
You were Eden,
the garden of God,
00:03:06.21\00:03:07.78
every precious
stone was your covering,
00:03:07.82\00:03:09.58
sardius, topaz,
diamond, beryl, onyx, jasper,
00:03:09.62\00:03:13.62
sapphire, turquoise,
and emerald with gold.
00:03:13.66\00:03:16.52
The workmanship of
your timbrels and pipes
00:03:16.56\00:03:18.86
was prepared for you on
the day you were created."
00:03:18.89\00:03:22.83
So he is a created being.
00:03:22.86\00:03:25.40
"You were the
anointed cherub who covers,
00:03:25.43\00:03:27.57
I established you.
00:03:27.60\00:03:29.00
You were on the
holy mountain of God.
00:03:29.04\00:03:31.01
You walked back and forth
in the midst of fiery stones.
00:03:31.04\00:03:34.48
You were perfect in your ways
from the day you were created,
00:03:34.51\00:03:37.61
till iniquity was found in you."
00:03:37.65\00:03:39.75
He was perfect, perfect.
00:03:39.78\00:03:41.48
"By the abundance
of your trading you
00:03:41.52\00:03:43.39
became filled
with violence within,
00:03:43.42\00:03:45.32
and you sinned.
00:03:45.35\00:03:46.76
Therefore I cast
you as a profane thing
00:03:46.79\00:03:50.73
out of the mountain of God.
00:03:50.76\00:03:52.43
And I destroyed
you, O covering cherub,
00:03:52.46\00:03:55.20
from the midst of fiery stones."
00:03:55.23\00:03:59.97
Stood in presence
of God, not a monster,
00:04:00.00\00:04:06.21
beautiful in every way,
00:04:06.24\00:04:11.41
almost but not,
00:04:11.45\00:04:13.95
almost like Christ,
00:04:13.98\00:04:18.55
beauty,
00:04:18.59\00:04:20.49
great dazzling personality.
00:04:20.52\00:04:24.93
The Bible says,
00:04:24.96\00:04:26.29
he walked up and down
00:04:26.33\00:04:27.66
in the midst of
the burning coals
00:04:27.70\00:04:30.40
in the very throne of God.
00:04:30.43\00:04:34.60
The Bible tells me that
he lusted for more power
00:04:34.64\00:04:39.37
because for him might was right.
00:04:39.41\00:04:43.68
And come over here
to 2 Corinthians 11.
00:04:43.71\00:04:46.31
We're talking here
about the shining one.
00:04:46.35\00:04:48.68
2 Corinthians 11:14,
00:04:48.72\00:04:53.09
the Apostle Paul says,
00:04:53.12\00:04:55.02
"No wonder for Satan
himself transforms himself
00:04:55.06\00:04:58.89
into an angel of light."
00:04:58.93\00:05:03.20
Now the great
Roman Catholic Church
00:05:03.23\00:05:06.77
and some of the
great Protestant churches
00:05:06.80\00:05:09.17
have pictured him like this.
00:05:09.20\00:05:15.64
Stoking the fires of
hell with a damn dark.
00:05:15.68\00:05:19.31
That in itself is a lie
00:05:19.35\00:05:21.02
because there's
not a single soul
00:05:21.05\00:05:23.39
in hell tonight.
00:05:23.42\00:05:25.35
That is a lie from the devil.
00:05:25.39\00:05:28.06
And so people have been taught,
00:05:28.09\00:05:29.49
he is like this.
00:05:29.52\00:05:32.23
When the Bible teaches,
00:05:32.26\00:05:34.33
he is full of majesty
and he is full of beauty
00:05:34.36\00:05:41.27
and it has a tremendous ability
00:05:41.30\00:05:45.91
to persuade and to deceive.
00:05:45.94\00:05:50.38
And that is why
today he is so successful
00:05:50.41\00:05:54.65
in Christian America.
00:05:54.68\00:05:57.45
Because this
person is the original
00:05:57.49\00:06:02.19
con artist,
00:06:02.22\00:06:05.39
shrewd, the shining one,
00:06:05.43\00:06:09.70
and he deals in lies, deception,
00:06:09.73\00:06:13.34
seduction and then in the end,
00:06:13.37\00:06:16.94
he deals in false.
00:06:16.97\00:06:20.74
Is it not amazing
that Christian people
00:06:20.78\00:06:26.38
should try to follow him
00:06:26.41\00:06:28.45
because this is
the torturer in chief?
00:06:28.48\00:06:33.19
And they say,
00:06:33.22\00:06:34.56
it's all right to
torture because we're goodies.
00:06:34.59\00:06:39.06
This is the great torturer.
00:06:39.09\00:06:42.33
This is the antichrist.
00:06:42.36\00:06:45.07
But if he came
into this meeting today,
00:06:45.10\00:06:47.80
many of us would
fall down and worship him.
00:06:47.84\00:06:51.91
He's not like the paintings
that were done by the church
00:06:51.94\00:06:54.58
in the Middle
Ages, that's nonsense.
00:06:54.61\00:06:58.15
An evil spirit, lying spirit,
00:06:58.18\00:07:00.42
deceived the king of Israel
00:07:00.45\00:07:03.12
as he deceives millions
today in Christian America.
00:07:03.15\00:07:06.92
Come over here to 1 Samuel 28
00:07:06.96\00:07:09.29
and this is the long passage
00:07:09.32\00:07:11.09
and because I've got a
lot of things to tell you,
00:07:11.13\00:07:13.53
we got to go fast.
00:07:13.56\00:07:14.96
1 Samuel 28:3 and onwards.
00:07:15.00\00:07:18.13
"Now Samuel had died..."
00:07:18.17\00:07:19.67
So what do Samuel know?
00:07:19.70\00:07:21.37
Nothing.
00:07:21.40\00:07:22.74
"And all Israel
had lamented for him
00:07:22.77\00:07:24.77
and buried him in
Ramah, in his own city.
00:07:24.81\00:07:27.14
And Saul had put the mediums
00:07:27.18\00:07:28.61
and the
spiritists out of the land.
00:07:28.64\00:07:30.88
Then the
Philistines gathered together,
00:07:30.91\00:07:32.68
and came and encamped at Shunem.
00:07:32.71\00:07:34.62
So Saul gathered
all Israel together,
00:07:34.65\00:07:36.35
and they encamped at Gilboa.
00:07:36.38\00:07:39.15
When Saul saw the
army of the Philistines,
00:07:39.19\00:07:41.46
he was afraid, his
heart trembled greatly.
00:07:41.49\00:07:44.29
And when Saul
inquired of the Lord,
00:07:44.33\00:07:46.43
the Lord did not answer him,
00:07:46.46\00:07:47.80
either by dreams or
by Urim or by prophets.
00:07:47.83\00:07:51.60
Then Saul said to his servants,
00:07:51.63\00:07:53.27
"Find me a
woman who is a medium,
00:07:53.30\00:07:55.54
that I may go to
her and inquire of her."
00:07:55.57\00:07:58.11
And his servants said to him,
00:07:58.14\00:07:59.91
"In fact there is a woman
who is a medium at En Dor."
00:07:59.94\00:08:04.31
So Saul disguised himself
and put on other clothes,
00:08:04.35\00:08:06.98
and he went, and
two men with him,
00:08:07.02\00:08:08.85
and they came to
the woman by night.
00:08:08.88\00:08:11.55
And he said, "Please
conduct a séance for me..."
00:08:11.59\00:08:14.16
That's what
they're saying tonight,
00:08:14.19\00:08:15.52
today in America and in England,
00:08:15.56\00:08:18.19
conduct a séance for me.
00:08:18.23\00:08:20.20
"And bring up for me
the one I shall name to you.
00:08:20.23\00:08:23.97
Then the woman said to him,
00:08:24.00\00:08:25.33
"Look, you know
what Saul has done,
00:08:25.37\00:08:26.70
how he has cut off the mediums
00:08:26.74\00:08:28.07
and the
spiritists from the land.
00:08:28.10\00:08:29.80
Why then do you lay
a snare for my life,
00:08:29.84\00:08:31.54
to cause me to die?"
00:08:31.57\00:08:33.27
And Saul swore to
her by the Lord, saying,
00:08:33.31\00:08:35.11
"As the Lord lives,
00:08:35.14\00:08:36.51
no punishment shall come
upon you for this thing."
00:08:36.54\00:08:40.78
Then the woman said,
00:08:40.82\00:08:42.15
"Whom shall I bring up for you?"
00:08:42.18\00:08:44.32
And he said,
"Bring up Samuel for me."
00:08:44.35\00:08:48.66
When the woman saw Samuel,
00:08:48.69\00:08:51.36
she cried out with a loud voice.
00:08:51.39\00:08:53.13
And the woman
spoke to Saul and said,
00:08:53.16\00:08:54.73
"Why have you deceived me?
00:08:54.76\00:08:56.10
For you are Saul."
00:08:56.13\00:08:58.20
The king said to
her, "Do not be afraid..."
00:08:58.23\00:09:02.27
Now he is stuttering.
00:09:02.30\00:09:05.37
"What did you see?"
00:09:05.41\00:09:06.74
The woman said to Saul,
00:09:06.78\00:09:08.54
"I saw a spirit
ascending out of the earth."
00:09:08.58\00:09:14.98
So he said to her,
"What is his form?"
00:09:15.02\00:09:18.09
And he said, "An
old man is coming up,
00:09:18.12\00:09:21.32
and he is
covered with a mantle."
00:09:21.36\00:09:24.39
And Saul perceived
that it was Samuel,
00:09:24.43\00:09:26.73
and he stooped with his face
to the ground and bowed down.
00:09:26.76\00:09:30.93
Now Samuel said to Saul,
00:09:30.97\00:09:32.67
"Why have you
disturbed me by bringing me up?"
00:09:32.70\00:09:36.07
Christian say, they come down
00:09:36.10\00:09:38.34
from heaven but
this person's coming up.
00:09:38.37\00:09:41.88
"And Saul answered,
00:09:41.91\00:09:43.48
"I am deeply distressed,
00:09:43.51\00:09:44.88
for the Philistines
make war against me,
00:09:44.91\00:09:47.18
and God has departed from me
00:09:47.22\00:09:48.75
and does not answer me anymore,
00:09:48.78\00:09:50.15
neither by
prophets nor by dreams.
00:09:50.19\00:09:52.29
Therefore I've called
you that you may reveal to me
00:09:52.32\00:09:54.99
what I should do."
00:09:55.02\00:09:56.36
Then Samuel said,
00:09:56.39\00:09:58.76
"So why do you ask me,
00:09:58.79\00:10:00.36
seeing the Lord
has departed from you
00:10:00.40\00:10:03.60
and has become your enemy?"
00:10:03.63\00:10:08.77
The Bible says,
the prophet was dead,
00:10:08.80\00:10:13.27
and if the prophet was dead,
00:10:13.31\00:10:15.91
the prophet did not
know a single thing.
00:10:15.94\00:10:22.48
And in modern
theology when a prophet dies,
00:10:22.52\00:10:25.82
he goes up to heaven
00:10:25.85\00:10:28.02
but this thing came
from the bowls of the earth.
00:10:28.06\00:10:32.49
This was not the real
prophet but a deceiving demon,
00:10:32.53\00:10:37.27
maybe Lucifer himself.
00:10:37.30\00:10:40.30
So there are millions
00:10:40.34\00:10:42.50
in this country
and in Latin America,
00:10:42.54\00:10:46.31
around the world,
00:10:46.34\00:10:49.61
like the Church of England,
00:10:49.64\00:10:51.58
minister in England
who said Bishop Pike,
00:10:51.61\00:10:53.88
he said, "I
spoke to my dead son,"
00:10:53.92\00:10:57.55
said the bishop.
00:10:57.59\00:10:58.92
The power of Lucifer
00:11:03.46\00:11:05.43
and his army of evil spirits
is manifested in many ways.
00:11:05.46\00:11:10.77
It is manifested in Hinduism.
00:11:10.80\00:11:14.70
Pastor Harold Harker
and I went to the Taj
00:11:14.74\00:11:18.67
but we went behind
the Taj to the riverbank
00:11:18.71\00:11:21.74
and we went there
to a Hindu temple.
00:11:21.78\00:11:24.91
The Hindus
worship millions of Gods
00:11:24.95\00:11:28.85
and these Gods are
actually in the form of demons,
00:11:28.88\00:11:32.22
have you seen them? I have.
00:11:32.25\00:11:34.99
Harold said,
"You want to go in?"
00:11:35.02\00:11:36.39
I said, "Oh, I don't know."
00:11:36.42\00:11:38.29
He said, "Let's go."
00:11:38.33\00:11:39.66
So we went in and the
priest struck the gong
00:11:39.69\00:11:43.30
and invited the spirits to come.
00:11:43.33\00:11:45.83
I said, "Harold,
00:11:45.87\00:11:47.20
we're not going
to go any further."
00:11:47.24\00:11:48.57
Because the hair,
they came up on our necks.
00:11:48.60\00:11:53.11
We've felt the
presence of evil spirits
00:11:53.14\00:11:56.85
in the Hindu temple.
00:11:56.88\00:11:59.71
It is manifested in
prayers for the dead.
00:11:59.75\00:12:04.05
One great church teaches people,
00:12:04.09\00:12:06.22
pray for the dead.
00:12:06.25\00:12:09.99
You don't pray for the
dead, you pray for the living.
00:12:10.03\00:12:13.96
In Mexico, they
have the day of the dead.
00:12:14.00\00:12:18.83
It is based on the devil's lie
00:12:18.87\00:12:21.70
that you'll become as gods
and you will know everything.
00:12:21.74\00:12:24.84
You read this in scripture.
00:12:24.87\00:12:27.94
The power of Lucifer
00:12:27.98\00:12:29.31
and his army of evil
spirits is manifested
00:12:29.34\00:12:31.75
in the new age movement
00:12:31.78\00:12:34.48
with all their spirits
and all of their souls.
00:12:34.52\00:12:41.09
It is manifested in
the Ascended Masters.
00:12:41.12\00:12:44.26
Have you heard of this?
00:12:44.29\00:12:47.43
I went,
00:12:47.46\00:12:48.80
I was running a big campaign
in the city of Melbourne,
00:12:48.83\00:12:51.13
some people came
to me and they said,
00:12:51.17\00:12:52.50
"Come to our home, we beg you."
00:12:52.53\00:12:54.87
They said, "We have been
sent by the spirits of God
00:12:54.90\00:12:59.14
to ask you to come and join us."
00:12:59.17\00:13:01.81
They said, "We can see that
00:13:01.84\00:13:03.38
you have something around you."
00:13:03.41\00:13:06.95
And I was visiting them
out in the Dandenong Ranges
00:13:06.98\00:13:10.05
and they said,
00:13:10.09\00:13:12.22
"If you do not
come and visit us,
00:13:12.25\00:13:14.49
we will leave our buddies
00:13:14.52\00:13:15.96
and we will come and visit you."
00:13:15.99\00:13:18.46
And they said, "As an evidence
00:13:18.49\00:13:20.46
that we have the truth,
00:13:20.50\00:13:23.57
here are your sermons
that you're going to preach
00:13:23.60\00:13:25.87
for the next three months."
00:13:25.90\00:13:28.10
And there they
were, word for word,
00:13:28.14\00:13:30.94
every illustration.
00:13:30.97\00:13:36.34
It was in Australia,
the Ascended Masters.
00:13:36.38\00:13:39.65
It is manifested in the
popular occult of astrology.
00:13:39.68\00:13:44.72
As you can read in
Isaiah 47:13 and 14,
00:13:44.75\00:13:49.86
Isaiah 47:13 and 14,
00:13:49.89\00:13:55.00
Isaiah says, "You are wearied
00:13:55.03\00:13:57.13
in the multiple
of your counsels,
00:13:57.17\00:13:59.63
let now the
astrologers, the stargazers,
00:13:59.67\00:14:04.01
and the monthly
prognosticators stand up
00:14:04.04\00:14:07.78
and save you from
what shall come upon you.
00:14:07.81\00:14:12.18
Behold, they
shall be as stubble.
00:14:12.21\00:14:15.65
The fire shall burn them,
00:14:15.68\00:14:17.39
They shall not
deliver themselves
00:14:17.42\00:14:19.25
from the power of the flame.
00:14:19.29\00:14:21.52
It shall not be a
coal to be warmed by,
00:14:21.56\00:14:25.09
nor a fire to sit by."
00:14:25.13\00:14:26.93
The Bible says astrology
is a part of the occult.
00:14:26.96\00:14:32.23
Hitler was into astrology
00:14:32.27\00:14:35.57
as are many of the
leaders of this country.
00:14:35.60\00:14:41.24
It is entered,
00:14:41.28\00:14:42.61
I'm not saying the
present administration,
00:14:42.64\00:14:44.25
I don't think it is true.
00:14:44.28\00:14:45.95
But a recent administration
00:14:45.98\00:14:47.92
before they did anything
they consulted the astrologers.
00:14:47.95\00:14:54.66
The Bible says,
00:14:54.69\00:14:56.22
"It is a part of
demonism and the occult."
00:14:56.26\00:15:01.36
Then of course Lucifer
00:15:01.40\00:15:03.77
and his army of evil spirits
is manifested in the séances
00:15:03.80\00:15:09.20
where people go along
and they have a medium.
00:15:09.24\00:15:14.08
And the medium
will bring up the dead.
00:15:14.11\00:15:17.38
And the dead would
tell the love ones exactly
00:15:17.41\00:15:19.65
what they need to know,
00:15:19.68\00:15:22.05
that information
that nobody else knows.
00:15:22.08\00:15:25.32
And that is why
he woman came to me
00:15:25.35\00:15:28.22
in Sydney and said,
00:15:28.26\00:15:30.29
"It must be right because I
heard things from this person
00:15:30.33\00:15:36.60
and he was my husband
00:15:36.63\00:15:38.07
that only he and I
could possibly know."
00:15:38.10\00:15:41.10
We're dealing
with the shining one,
00:15:44.27\00:15:47.18
the person who he
manifested himself today
00:15:47.21\00:15:50.08
would be shrewd, and polished,
00:15:50.11\00:15:53.65
and persuasive.
00:15:53.68\00:15:57.35
And the vast collarbone
masses bow down and say,
00:15:57.39\00:16:01.52
"This is the
great power of God."
00:16:01.56\00:16:03.43
It is the power of the devil.
00:16:03.46\00:16:07.80
So how can you be fortified?
00:16:07.83\00:16:10.17
By reading the Bible,
by studying the Bible.
00:16:10.20\00:16:12.87
Most Christians just
don't read their Bibles.
00:16:12.90\00:16:16.07
It is manifested
in demon possession.
00:16:16.10\00:16:19.01
Have I seen it? Yes.
00:16:19.04\00:16:21.04
Dr. John Haymond and I
went a long to see a lady
00:16:21.08\00:16:24.58
who came to my meeting.
00:16:24.61\00:16:25.95
She lived in a
town north of Sydney
00:16:25.98\00:16:28.28
with the quaint name of Woy Woy.
00:16:28.32\00:16:31.52
John had been involved.
00:16:31.55\00:16:34.09
He's seen these things
before out in the islands,
00:16:34.12\00:16:36.96
brought up in Borneo.
00:16:36.99\00:16:39.13
Dr. Haymond and I went in there.
00:16:39.16\00:16:40.80
As soon as we
went in to their house,
00:16:40.83\00:16:43.53
hair came up on
the back of my neck.
00:16:43.57\00:16:46.20
No, you don't laugh.
00:16:46.23\00:16:48.47
You don't laugh.
00:16:48.50\00:16:50.21
It's nobody laughing then.
00:16:50.24\00:16:52.31
Nobody is joking then.
00:16:52.34\00:16:53.84
The lady came out,
00:16:53.88\00:16:55.21
the children carrying
in the corner of the room.
00:16:55.24\00:16:58.05
There are four or
five little children.
00:16:58.08\00:16:59.78
She said, "I
once knew the truth,
00:16:59.81\00:17:02.15
I once followed the truth."
00:17:02.18\00:17:03.52
But she said,
00:17:03.55\00:17:04.89
"Somehow I had a
very messy experience,"
00:17:04.92\00:17:08.32
and she said, "I
got away from church,
00:17:08.36\00:17:10.79
I got away from God."
00:17:10.83\00:17:12.53
And she said, "I
consulted the spirits."
00:17:12.56\00:17:16.63
Now you don't
have to believe this,
00:17:16.67\00:17:19.60
just be careful
what you don't believe.
00:17:19.63\00:17:23.91
She said, "Every
night I get into bed,
00:17:23.94\00:17:27.24
a man gets in with me
00:17:27.28\00:17:31.21
and he is no human being,
00:17:31.25\00:17:33.52
and he puts his
hands around my throat."
00:17:33.55\00:17:35.88
She said, "Look at the marks."
00:17:35.92\00:17:37.25
I could see them there.
00:17:37.29\00:17:40.06
The kids were crying, shaking,
00:17:40.09\00:17:42.22
I said, "Let's all get down."
00:17:42.26\00:17:43.59
John and I got down,
00:17:43.63\00:17:44.96
Dr. Haymond
started to read the Bible.
00:17:44.99\00:17:47.23
As I started to read
the words of the Bible,
00:17:47.26\00:17:49.26
you know what happened?
00:17:49.30\00:17:50.77
She went in to a
trance, couldn't hear a word.
00:17:50.80\00:17:53.84
We'd shake her, said,
"Listen to the prayer,
00:17:53.87\00:17:56.64
we're reading the scriptures."
00:17:56.67\00:17:58.47
All right, I'm with you now.
00:17:58.51\00:18:01.38
Start to read the Bible,
she couldn't hear a thing.
00:18:01.41\00:18:05.08
Don't devil with the devil.
00:18:10.82\00:18:13.96
Don't play with the devil
00:18:13.99\00:18:17.49
because he's alive
and well on planet earth.
00:18:17.53\00:18:21.06
Now listen, I'm going
to tell you something,
00:18:21.10\00:18:22.66
it's not to scare you.
00:18:22.70\00:18:26.23
You and I know
things are going on
00:18:26.27\00:18:27.67
in this great country
00:18:27.70\00:18:29.04
that we never
dreamed would happen.
00:18:29.07\00:18:31.54
We're concerned about
what's going on in the world.
00:18:31.57\00:18:34.24
People say, what's
going to happen next.
00:18:34.28\00:18:37.91
Listen to this.
00:18:37.95\00:18:41.05
Listen to this.
00:18:41.08\00:18:43.65
We're living in the last days.
00:18:43.69\00:18:46.35
I have an abundance of evidence
00:18:46.39\00:18:48.29
that we're living
three minutes to midnight.
00:18:48.32\00:18:54.40
And evil angels
are going to come
00:18:54.43\00:18:58.53
from the bottomless
pit and deceive billions,
00:18:58.57\00:19:03.41
the collarbone masses who
know nothing of scripture,
00:19:03.44\00:19:08.68
who are so easily persuaded
by politicians and others.
00:19:08.71\00:19:15.25
Oh, it sounds so...
00:19:15.28\00:19:16.75
Come on, please.
00:19:16.79\00:19:18.42
It is written, man
shall not live by bread alone
00:19:21.62\00:19:23.89
but by every word.
00:19:23.93\00:19:25.26
Come over here to Revelation.
00:19:25.29\00:19:26.80
I don't have time to
give you an exegesis of this.
00:19:26.83\00:19:31.83
But the quick exegesis
00:19:31.87\00:19:33.60
I'm going to give you is
held by the best scholars.
00:19:33.64\00:19:39.27
Revelation 9:1-3,
00:19:39.31\00:19:40.74
"Then the fifth angel sounded
00:19:40.78\00:19:43.01
and I saw a star fall
from heaven to the earth.
00:19:43.04\00:19:46.92
To him was given the
key to the bottomless pit.
00:19:46.95\00:19:51.52
And he opened the bottomless pit
00:19:51.55\00:19:52.89
and smoke arose out of the pit
00:19:52.92\00:19:54.52
like the smoke
of a great furnace.
00:19:54.56\00:19:56.09
So the sun and
the air were darkened
00:19:56.12\00:19:57.89
because of the smoke of the pit.
00:19:57.93\00:19:59.76
Then out of the smoke
locusts came up out of the earth
00:19:59.79\00:20:02.56
and to them was given power,
00:20:02.60\00:20:04.27
as the scorpions of
the earth have power."
00:20:04.30\00:20:06.43
Jesus said, "The scorpions
are symbolic of evil spirits."
00:20:06.47\00:20:11.91
Verse 7,
00:20:11.94\00:20:13.81
"The shape of
the locusts was like
00:20:13.84\00:20:15.54
horses prepared for battle.
00:20:15.58\00:20:16.98
On their heads were
crowns of something like gold,
00:20:17.01\00:20:19.75
their faces were
like the faces of men."
00:20:19.78\00:20:22.25
So they have human faces.
00:20:22.28\00:20:24.42
"They had hair
like women's hair."
00:20:24.45\00:20:26.42
They're seductive.
00:20:26.45\00:20:28.42
"And their teeth
were like lion's teeth.
00:20:28.46\00:20:31.69
And they had breastplates
like breastplates of iron,
00:20:31.73\00:20:34.50
and the sound of their wings
was like the sound of chariots
00:20:34.53\00:20:37.67
with many horses
running into battle.
00:20:37.70\00:20:39.20
They had tails like scorpions,
00:20:39.23\00:20:41.80
and there were
stings in their tails."
00:20:41.84\00:20:45.47
Listen to me, I've
got to tell you fast.
00:20:45.51\00:20:47.94
Another part of this
chapter when it describes
00:20:47.98\00:20:52.58
these demons from
the bottomless pit
00:20:52.61\00:20:56.38
that eventually
take over the whole world
00:20:56.42\00:20:59.05
with the exception
of a little remnant.
00:20:59.09\00:21:02.19
Have the faces
of men, the human,
00:21:02.22\00:21:05.79
they have the hair
of woman, seductive.
00:21:05.83\00:21:09.56
Another verse
in the same chapter
00:21:09.60\00:21:11.20
that we won't
read just now says,
00:21:11.23\00:21:13.27
"Their power is
in their mouths."
00:21:13.30\00:21:17.21
False
preaching, false utterance,
00:21:17.24\00:21:20.84
they spew out all of
the seductive teaching,
00:21:20.88\00:21:24.98
and the people say,
"This is the power of God."
00:21:25.01\00:21:28.08
But the Bible says,
"The sting is in the tail."
00:21:28.12\00:21:32.39
They deceive with the mouth
and then they sting to death,
00:21:32.42\00:21:38.23
evil spirits.
00:21:38.26\00:21:39.79
Revelation 16 says,
00:21:39.83\00:21:41.50
the last great battle
of Armageddon is brought
00:21:41.53\00:21:44.27
about by the agency
of un-cleaned spirits.
00:21:44.30\00:21:46.27
What should you and I do?
00:21:46.30\00:21:48.07
We should wake up.
00:21:48.10\00:21:50.71
It's no longer
business as normal, my friends.
00:21:50.74\00:21:53.48
We need to wake up and
we need to come to Christ
00:21:53.51\00:21:57.71
and not be superficial
00:21:57.75\00:22:01.62
but to study scripture.
00:22:01.65\00:22:05.65
Good news is that Jesus is Lord
00:22:05.69\00:22:07.62
over the forces of
nature and Lord over the demons.
00:22:07.66\00:22:11.49
Now we don't have
time to read the text
00:22:11.53\00:22:14.13
but there's a text in the Bible
00:22:14.16\00:22:17.07
that talks about
Jesus was out in a boat.
00:22:17.10\00:22:21.20
And a tremendous storm came up.
00:22:21.24\00:22:24.54
They thought they
were going to sink
00:22:24.57\00:22:28.44
and then Jesus
said, "What's wrong?"
00:22:28.48\00:22:30.31
Jesus got up,
00:22:30.35\00:22:31.98
He turned to the raging sea
00:22:32.01\00:22:33.82
and to the
scream of the elements
00:22:33.85\00:22:36.48
and he said, "Peace."
00:22:36.52\00:22:40.66
He is the Lord of all.
00:22:40.69\00:22:42.96
Lord over the demons.
00:22:42.99\00:22:44.59
Lord over the elements.
00:22:44.63\00:22:46.09
Lord over the devil.
00:22:46.13\00:22:49.06
Beat him on the cross,
00:22:49.10\00:22:51.93
and they landed
and there was a man
00:22:51.97\00:22:53.80
who came out of the tombs
and he was filled with demons.
00:22:53.84\00:22:56.64
People said, "No,
no that doesn't happen,
00:22:56.67\00:22:58.61
it's just a story."
00:22:58.64\00:22:59.97
No, it's true.
00:23:00.01\00:23:01.34
Don't mess with the devil
00:23:01.38\00:23:03.04
because he won't mess with you.
00:23:03.08\00:23:08.45
And Jesus said,
"I'm going to save you."
00:23:08.48\00:23:13.12
The demon said,
00:23:13.15\00:23:15.62
"If you're going to cast us out,
00:23:15.66\00:23:17.06
throw us in to these pigs."
00:23:17.09\00:23:18.86
Good place for them to go.
00:23:18.89\00:23:20.23
Jesus said, "Go in to the pigs."
00:23:20.26\00:23:22.66
And the pigs rushed
down the bank in to the sea
00:23:22.70\00:23:24.90
and were drowned.
00:23:24.93\00:23:26.30
And the man was left
00:23:26.33\00:23:30.24
completely healed,
00:23:30.27\00:23:32.77
because I want you to know this.
00:23:32.81\00:23:36.14
When the little gods come out,
00:23:36.18\00:23:39.28
the big God comes in.
00:23:39.31\00:23:41.95
And when the big God comes
in, the little gods go out.
00:23:41.98\00:23:47.06
I've had Christian say,
00:23:47.09\00:23:48.42
"But you know,
00:23:48.46\00:23:49.79
you can have the
devil and Christ."
00:23:49.82\00:23:51.16
No, that, no, you can't.
00:23:51.19\00:23:52.69
When Christ
comes into your life,
00:23:52.73\00:23:57.00
you're safe and you're saved
00:23:57.03\00:24:00.64
because Christ is
Lord over the elements.
00:24:00.67\00:24:05.17
He's Lord over the wind.
00:24:05.21\00:24:06.98
He's Lord over the waves.
00:24:07.01\00:24:08.94
He's Lord...
00:24:08.98\00:24:11.35
Want you to see this.
00:24:11.38\00:24:13.25
You got to make a choice one day
00:24:13.28\00:24:15.38
between Christ and this person.
00:24:15.42\00:24:19.59
Oh, he's not a...
00:24:19.62\00:24:20.96
doesn't look like a demon.
00:24:20.99\00:24:22.76
He's handsome.
00:24:22.79\00:24:25.76
He's sharp.
00:24:25.79\00:24:28.06
He's shrewd, he's persuasive
00:24:28.10\00:24:31.30
and he deceives the
wandering multitudes.
00:24:31.33\00:24:35.84
And you can't
mess around with this,
00:24:40.08\00:24:42.71
because one day
00:24:42.74\00:24:44.51
it's going to
be Christ or Satan.
00:24:44.55\00:24:50.25
And we should say today,
00:24:50.29\00:24:53.56
"Lord Jesus Christ,
come in to my heart today."
00:24:53.59\00:24:58.73
As it is written in scripture,
00:24:58.76\00:25:00.76
"Greater is he, who's in you
00:25:00.80\00:25:04.43
and he who is in the world."
00:25:04.47\00:25:06.60
Amen.
00:25:06.63\00:25:07.97
Let's pray together.
00:25:08.00\00:25:09.34
Now, Father, we thank you that
Jesus Christ is Lord of all.
00:25:09.37\00:25:13.41
He's Lord over the
elements, Lord over the sea,
00:25:13.44\00:25:17.28
and He's Lord over the demons.
00:25:17.31\00:25:19.98
We believe we're
living in the last moments
00:25:20.02\00:25:22.32
in the history of this world.
00:25:22.35\00:25:24.29
And we believe
00:25:24.32\00:25:25.65
that the demons are coming
out of the bottomless pit.
00:25:25.69\00:25:29.39
And we believe our only
safety is in knowing Christ.
00:25:29.42\00:25:34.56
Not just knowing about Christ.
00:25:34.60\00:25:36.73
Not just knowing a heap
of stuff about religion.
00:25:36.77\00:25:40.07
But knowing Christ and having
the word of Christ indwell us
00:25:40.10\00:25:46.98
as we're praying here today.
00:25:47.01\00:25:49.28
How many will
raise their hand and say,
00:25:49.31\00:25:51.25
today I choose in
the Great Controversy,
00:25:51.28\00:25:55.95
I choose Christ.
00:25:55.98\00:25:57.32
Would you raise your hand today?
00:25:57.35\00:25:58.89
I choose Christ today.
00:25:58.92\00:26:01.62
Dear Father, bless
these up-raised hands,
00:26:01.66\00:26:04.49
and bless these
up-raised hearts.
00:26:04.53\00:26:07.10
And we thank you
that with Christ,
00:26:07.13\00:26:11.00
we're eternally safe.
00:26:11.03\00:26:13.77
We worship you and we bless you.
00:26:13.80\00:26:16.10
Thank you in Jesus' name, amen.
00:26:16.14\00:26:19.37
Amen!
