Welcome back to part two,
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
where we ask what
then should we expect?
00:00:02.73\00:00:06.17
What do the Bible
prophecies say about the future?
00:00:06.20\00:00:09.97
What is the mark of the beast?
00:00:10.01\00:00:11.97
Who is the king of liars?
00:00:12.01\00:00:14.81
Why are so many
religious people gullible
00:00:14.84\00:00:17.81
and believe the lies?
00:00:17.85\00:00:20.05
Here to answer
these important questions
00:00:20.08\00:00:22.75
is our host, John Carter.
00:00:22.78\00:00:25.12
"Did Jesus speak about
the spirit of lawlessness
00:00:29.06\00:00:32.13
that would spread
across the world?"
00:00:32.16\00:00:35.83
Yes, He did,
00:00:35.86\00:00:37.30
and the operative
word is lawlessness.
00:00:37.33\00:00:40.90
Let me read you a
text that's taken here
00:00:40.94\00:00:43.20
out of Matthew 24:11-13.
00:00:43.24\00:00:49.18
"Then many false
prophets will rise up
00:00:49.21\00:00:51.51
and deceive many.
00:00:51.55\00:00:54.25
And because
lawlessness will abound."
00:00:54.28\00:00:57.75
The operative
word, did you get it?
00:00:57.79\00:00:59.65
Lawlessness.
00:00:59.69\00:01:01.02
"Because
lawlessness will abound,
00:01:01.06\00:01:03.66
the love of
many," or the Greek says,
00:01:03.69\00:01:05.96
"The love of the
most will grow cold.
00:01:05.99\00:01:08.46
But he who endures to
the end shall be saved."
00:01:08.50\00:01:14.17
So the Bible talks, my friend,
about a spirit of lawlessness.
00:01:14.20\00:01:19.67
We're talking here
00:01:19.71\00:01:21.24
about a hatred
of the law of God.
00:01:21.28\00:01:25.15
The Bible says,
"In the last days,
00:01:25.18\00:01:27.48
there will arise this
finish spirit of lawlessness,
00:01:27.52\00:01:32.59
where so many people,
00:01:32.62\00:01:33.96
even preachers will
hate the law of God."
00:01:33.99\00:01:39.06
Now, a certain
famous man in America
00:01:39.09\00:01:42.50
helped this
movement of lawlessness along
00:01:42.53\00:01:46.17
when he said,
00:01:46.20\00:01:48.30
"Marriage is no longer
just between a man and a woman."
00:01:48.34\00:01:52.24
What he did, my friend,
00:01:52.27\00:01:54.24
he overthrew at
least 6,000 years
00:01:54.28\00:01:58.21
of culture, tradition,
00:01:58.25\00:02:01.22
law, and truth.
00:02:01.25\00:02:04.85
What he did?
00:02:04.89\00:02:06.22
He poked his
finger into the dam,
00:02:06.25\00:02:10.99
and the water
started to come out.
00:02:11.03\00:02:14.76
And the water of lawlessness
00:02:14.80\00:02:16.67
has been flooding out ever since
00:02:16.70\00:02:20.10
and today,
anything is permissible.
00:02:20.14\00:02:24.24
And they're teaching this
stuff to our little children
00:02:24.27\00:02:27.54
and our
grandchildren in the schools.
00:02:27.58\00:02:30.91
You're a boy,
00:02:30.95\00:02:32.28
"Hey you may
really be a little girl."
00:02:32.31\00:02:35.18
And the little boy
says, "Mommy, am I a boy?"
00:02:35.22\00:02:39.59
"Well, I don't know if
you're really a boy or not.
00:02:39.62\00:02:42.32
We'll have to
wait until you grow up.
00:02:42.36\00:02:44.63
And then when you grow up,
00:02:44.66\00:02:46.13
we're going to make a decision
00:02:46.16\00:02:47.50
to see whether
you're a boy or a girl."
00:02:47.53\00:02:51.90
We're teaching this
stuff in the schools.
00:02:51.93\00:02:54.94
This is a spirit of lawlessness
00:02:54.97\00:02:59.31
and rebellion against God.
00:02:59.34\00:03:02.98
It is a
fulfillment of Bible prophecy.
00:03:03.01\00:03:06.78
Jesus predicted it.
00:03:06.82\00:03:10.32
"Do you ever
feel for your safety
00:03:10.35\00:03:12.35
in this lawless age?"
00:03:12.39\00:03:16.62
Not especially.
00:03:16.66\00:03:19.93
I think of my old Bible
teacher at Avondale College,
00:03:19.96\00:03:23.67
many years ago
00:03:23.70\00:03:25.17
before most of you
folks were even born.
00:03:25.20\00:03:27.80
His name was Nelson Burns.
00:03:27.84\00:03:29.80
And he said, "You are immortal
in this life and in this world
00:03:29.84\00:03:35.31
until your work
on earth is done."
00:03:35.34\00:03:37.78
Did you get this?
00:03:37.81\00:03:39.15
You are immortal
00:03:39.18\00:03:40.52
until your work
on earth is done.
00:03:40.55\00:03:43.22
We read in the
scriptures about Jesus,
00:03:43.25\00:03:45.25
His time had not yet come,
00:03:45.29\00:03:47.86
His time had not yet come,
00:03:47.89\00:03:49.76
His time had not yet come.
00:03:49.79\00:03:52.23
Nothing can touch you
until your time has come.
00:03:52.26\00:03:56.40
I've been to some
pretty dangerous prices.
00:03:56.43\00:03:59.10
I've been to Africa,
00:03:59.13\00:04:00.94
the most dangerous continent
on the face of the earth.
00:04:00.97\00:04:04.37
I've run
campaigns in Johannesburg,
00:04:04.41\00:04:06.91
one of the most
dangerous cities in the world.
00:04:06.94\00:04:09.98
I run a campaign
in Port Moresby, PNG,
00:04:10.01\00:04:13.48
one of the most
dangerous cities in the world.
00:04:13.52\00:04:15.95
I've been to
Russia, been to Ukraine,
00:04:15.98\00:04:18.59
been to India,
been to Latin America.
00:04:18.62\00:04:22.69
I've been to places
where there are gangs.
00:04:22.72\00:04:25.63
Yeah, I've been to
places that are gang infested,
00:04:25.66\00:04:28.80
but I never felt afraid
00:04:28.83\00:04:30.73
because I'm immortal
00:04:30.77\00:04:32.10
until my work on earth is done.
00:04:32.13\00:04:34.37
This means nothing can touch me.
00:04:34.40\00:04:37.34
Nothing can touch you
00:04:37.37\00:04:39.34
while your life is
in the hands of God.
00:04:39.37\00:04:41.34
No, I'm not
afraid of lawless men.
00:04:41.38\00:04:45.28
What I'm afraid
of is that somehow
00:04:45.31\00:04:48.08
I will compromise my faith
00:04:48.12\00:04:50.19
and I will stop
preaching the Word of God.
00:04:50.22\00:04:52.89
Once I do this, my friend,
00:04:52.92\00:04:54.99
God will take
His Spirit from me.
00:04:55.02\00:04:57.23
But by the grace of
God, I plan to keep on,
00:04:57.26\00:05:00.60
keeping on,
keeping on, keeping on.
00:05:00.63\00:05:03.67
So help me, God.
00:05:03.70\00:05:07.54
"What does Jesus
mean when He talks about
00:05:07.57\00:05:10.51
the abomination of desolation?"
00:05:10.54\00:05:16.01
I hope I can answer it,
Wayne, to your satisfaction.
00:05:16.04\00:05:20.08
Let me read you
Matthew 24:15-16,
00:05:20.12\00:05:25.59
The New King James
Version, listen up.
00:05:25.62\00:05:30.13
"Therefore, when you see
the abomination of desolation,
00:05:30.16\00:05:36.06
spoken of by Daniel the prophet,
00:05:36.10\00:05:39.07
stand in the holy place,
00:05:39.10\00:05:42.20
whoever reads
let him understand.
00:05:42.24\00:05:44.97
Then let those
who are in Judea flee
00:05:45.01\00:05:48.04
to the mountains."
00:05:48.08\00:05:50.91
Do you want to
hear a bit of history?
00:05:50.95\00:05:53.55
In 66 AD, you know
what AD means, don't you?
00:05:53.58\00:05:57.79
Anno Domini, in
year of our Lord,
00:05:57.82\00:06:01.49
the atheists, and the
skeptics, and the critics,
00:06:01.52\00:06:04.59
and the communists are
trying to do away with BC and AD
00:06:04.63\00:06:09.63
because they're so intolerant.
00:06:09.66\00:06:12.07
Anno Domini,
00:06:12.10\00:06:14.70
66 in the year of our Lord,
00:06:14.74\00:06:19.07
the Jewish people
revolted against the Romans.
00:06:19.11\00:06:23.38
And so the Roman sent down
00:06:23.41\00:06:24.88
one of their leading
generals from Assyria.
00:06:24.91\00:06:27.78
He was a gentleman,
no gentleman really.
00:06:27.82\00:06:30.82
He was a Roman patriot by
the name of Cestius Gallus.
00:06:30.85\00:06:36.79
He brought his
armies around Jerusalem,
00:06:36.83\00:06:40.33
and his armies
stood in the holy place.
00:06:40.36\00:06:44.13
The armies of the Romans
00:06:44.17\00:06:45.70
were the
abomination of desolation.
00:06:45.73\00:06:49.34
And when Jesus spoke about this,
00:06:49.37\00:06:51.01
He was seeing into the future,
00:06:51.04\00:06:52.64
and He was talking about
the coming of the Roman armies
00:06:52.67\00:06:57.68
that would come
against the people of God.
00:06:57.71\00:07:01.98
It's going to
happen again, my friend.
00:07:02.02\00:07:04.39
It's going to happen again.
00:07:04.42\00:07:08.39
"When does the Great Tribulation
00:07:08.42\00:07:10.06
take place?
00:07:10.09\00:07:11.43
Most of us have been taught,
it happens after the rapture."
00:07:11.46\00:07:17.03
Well, my dear friend,
it's not what most of us
00:07:17.07\00:07:19.60
have been taught that counts.
00:07:19.63\00:07:22.40
What happens is what is
taught in the Holy Scriptures.
00:07:22.44\00:07:27.48
I don't want to be
preaching false doctrine.
00:07:27.51\00:07:31.75
I don't want to be
preaching a wrong interpretation
00:07:31.78\00:07:35.08
of Bible prophecy.
00:07:35.12\00:07:37.62
The greatest need for
people today is to smarten up,
00:07:37.65\00:07:42.16
by getting a
knowledge of the Scripture
00:07:42.19\00:07:45.06
and not being brainwashed
00:07:45.09\00:07:47.23
by phony-false prophets.
00:07:47.26\00:07:51.13
Let me read you a text
on the Great Tribulation.
00:07:51.17\00:07:56.54
Matthew 24:20-22,
00:07:56.57\00:08:00.18
"And pray that your
flight will not be in winter
00:08:00.21\00:08:02.98
or on the Sabbath."
00:08:03.01\00:08:05.01
Hey!
00:08:05.05\00:08:06.38
Apparently,
00:08:06.41\00:08:07.75
the Sabbath is going
to have some significance
00:08:07.78\00:08:10.12
in the last days.
00:08:10.15\00:08:12.02
"Pray that your
flight won't be in the winter
00:08:12.05\00:08:14.66
or on the Sabbath.
00:08:14.69\00:08:16.02
For then there will
be Great Tribulation,
00:08:16.06\00:08:20.63
such as has not been
since the beginning of the world
00:08:20.66\00:08:23.50
until this time,
no, nor ever shall be.
00:08:23.53\00:08:27.74
And unless those
days were shortened,
00:08:27.77\00:08:30.54
no flesh would be saved,
00:08:30.57\00:08:33.07
but for the sake of the elect,
00:08:33.11\00:08:37.21
those days will be shortened."
00:08:37.25\00:08:39.18
Who on earth are the elect?
00:08:39.21\00:08:41.92
The elect are the people of God.
00:08:41.95\00:08:45.75
The Bible says that
this time of tribulation
00:08:45.79\00:08:49.06
is going to be so bad.
00:08:49.09\00:08:51.99
It's going to be so intense
00:08:52.03\00:08:54.33
that if God did
not shorten those days,
00:08:54.36\00:08:57.00
none of God's Church
would survive those days.
00:08:57.03\00:08:59.80
Therefore, God's
Church is right on this earth
00:08:59.83\00:09:03.67
during the Great Tribulation,
00:09:03.71\00:09:06.17
which is followed by
the Second Coming of Christ.
00:09:06.21\00:09:09.58
I know that most
people today, most people
00:09:09.61\00:09:11.78
in the United States of America,
00:09:11.81\00:09:14.08
most Christian
people seem to think
00:09:14.12\00:09:16.12
that the tribulation
comes after the Second Coming.
00:09:16.15\00:09:18.95
This is because
00:09:18.99\00:09:20.32
they do not believe
the words of Christ.
00:09:20.36\00:09:24.66
Now, let me read
you something else.
00:09:24.69\00:09:28.03
Matthew 24:28-30.
00:09:28.06\00:09:31.57
Please, listen up.
00:09:31.60\00:09:34.77
Jesus said, "For
wherever the carcass is,
00:09:34.80\00:09:39.14
there the eagles will
be gathered together."
00:09:39.17\00:09:43.01
The whole world
becomes a stinking carcass
00:09:43.04\00:09:48.98
and the eagles come,
that's the symbol of judgment.
00:09:49.02\00:09:54.52
Jesus said,
00:09:54.56\00:09:55.89
"Immediately after the
tribulation of those days,
00:09:55.92\00:10:00.30
sun will be darkened,
00:10:00.33\00:10:01.66
and the moon will
not give its light,
00:10:01.70\00:10:03.03
the stars will fall from heaven,
00:10:03.06\00:10:04.97
and the powers of the
heavens will be shaken.
00:10:05.00\00:10:09.07
Then the sign of the Son of
Man will appear in the heavens,
00:10:09.10\00:10:14.14
and then all the tribes
of the earth will mourn.
00:10:14.18\00:10:19.71
They will see the Son of Man
coming in the clouds of heaven
00:10:19.75\00:10:23.95
with power and great glory."
00:10:23.99\00:10:28.99
It's just plain as
the nose on your face.
00:10:29.02\00:10:34.43
How can people get it so wrong?
00:10:34.46\00:10:38.20
Jesus says
00:10:38.23\00:10:39.57
"They're a great
celestial events,
00:10:39.60\00:10:42.04
great signs in the heavens."
00:10:42.07\00:10:45.17
You're going to
see it, my friend.
00:10:45.21\00:10:48.04
Jesus says, "The
Great Tribulation comes,
00:10:48.08\00:10:51.65
this tremendous
tribulation comes."
00:10:51.68\00:10:57.05
And then Jesus says,
"After this Great Tribulation,
00:10:57.09\00:11:01.06
the sign of the Son of
Man appears in the heavens,
00:11:01.09\00:11:04.49
and we see Christ coming
with power and great glory.
00:11:04.53\00:11:08.00
And He comes and He takes
His people home to glory."
00:11:08.03\00:11:11.93
And so, let me make it plain.
00:11:11.97\00:11:15.80
You're going to have
this tremendous tribulation.
00:11:15.84\00:11:20.21
God's people are going to go
through that Great Tribulation.
00:11:20.24\00:11:22.68
God doesn't save them
from the Great Tribulation.
00:11:22.71\00:11:25.58
He saves them in the
midst of the Great Tribulation,
00:11:25.61\00:11:28.25
not from but in the
midst of the Great Tribulation.
00:11:28.28\00:11:31.52
So you're going to have
this terrible tribulation.
00:11:31.55\00:11:34.92
You're going to have
these great celestial signs,
00:11:34.96\00:11:37.99
God's people around the
earth, and then Christ comes,
00:11:38.03\00:11:41.36
and He saves His people.
00:11:41.40\00:11:43.77
We are on the winning side.
00:11:43.80\00:11:46.94
This is the good news.
00:11:46.97\00:11:50.64
"Can Satan work miracles?"
00:11:50.67\00:11:55.08
Well, you better believe it.
00:11:55.11\00:11:57.58
Of course, the
devil can work miracles.
00:11:57.61\00:12:00.72
The devil is a fallen angel,
00:12:00.75\00:12:03.59
but still he is
a mighty powerful
00:12:03.62\00:12:07.79
fallen angel.
00:12:07.82\00:12:09.76
And he works miracles,
00:12:09.79\00:12:11.26
and he's got most people
completely mixed up today.
00:12:11.29\00:12:14.63
He's got most
people completely deceived.
00:12:14.66\00:12:17.33
Maybe he's got you
deceived, my friend.
00:12:17.37\00:12:20.34
And he deceives those people
00:12:20.37\00:12:22.67
that don't believe
the truth of the Bible,
00:12:22.70\00:12:24.81
but go according
to their own opinions.
00:12:24.84\00:12:27.28
And here's the
text, 2 Thessalonians 2:9.
00:12:27.31\00:12:30.78
The coming of the lawless one.
00:12:30.81\00:12:32.18
There it is again.
00:12:32.21\00:12:33.75
The lawless one, the
devil hates the law of God.
00:12:33.78\00:12:37.09
The devil hates
the Ten Commandments.
00:12:37.12\00:12:39.29
The devil hates the
truth about marriage.
00:12:39.32\00:12:41.62
The devil hates
the truth about God.
00:12:41.66\00:12:44.39
The devil is the great hater.
00:12:44.43\00:12:46.03
"The coming of the lawless one
00:12:46.06\00:12:47.63
is according to
the working of Satan,
00:12:47.66\00:12:50.17
with all power, signs,
00:12:50.20\00:12:53.13
and lying wonders."
00:12:53.17\00:12:56.37
The Bible teaches that Satan,
00:12:56.40\00:12:59.21
who is alive
00:12:59.24\00:13:00.58
and well on planet
earth is the great deceiver,
00:13:00.61\00:13:05.08
and the great miracle worker.
00:13:05.11\00:13:08.48
Most people in America at least,
00:13:08.52\00:13:10.69
and I think in Australia,
00:13:10.72\00:13:12.22
most Christians who
seems to be seem to think
00:13:12.25\00:13:14.82
that if a miracle
happens, God is behind it.
00:13:14.86\00:13:16.96
No.
00:13:16.99\00:13:19.06
A miracle simply proves
there is a supernatural force
00:13:19.09\00:13:23.70
that is working,
00:13:23.73\00:13:25.07
and the devil can work miracles.
00:13:25.10\00:13:26.74
You and I better smarten up.
00:13:26.77\00:13:30.74
"Who is the man of sin
00:13:30.77\00:13:32.77
that is described
by Paul the Apostle?"
00:13:32.81\00:13:37.85
Wayne, you asked
me this pertinent,
00:13:37.88\00:13:40.38
soul searching strong question.
00:13:40.42\00:13:43.79
Who is the man of sin?
00:13:43.82\00:13:45.99
Well, of course, he is
the man of lawlessness.
00:13:46.02\00:13:48.92
When you see this
lawlessness today in America,
00:13:48.96\00:13:52.09
on the streets of America,
00:13:52.13\00:13:54.80
when you hear
preachers preaching
00:13:54.83\00:13:56.70
that the law God is abolished.
00:13:56.73\00:14:00.04
When you see the
United States Supreme Court
00:14:00.07\00:14:02.67
doing away with the law of God,
00:14:02.70\00:14:04.54
you know,
00:14:04.57\00:14:05.94
it is the spirit of lawlessness.
00:14:05.97\00:14:09.44
And the lawless one,
00:14:09.48\00:14:11.31
when you go back
to basics is Satan,
00:14:11.35\00:14:14.98
and Lucifer.
00:14:15.02\00:14:17.65
2 Thessalonians
2:9-12, would you listen up?
00:14:17.69\00:14:23.56
"The coming of the lawless one
00:14:23.59\00:14:25.09
is according to
the working of Satan,
00:14:25.13\00:14:28.06
with all power,
signs, and lying wonders."
00:14:28.10\00:14:30.50
People say, "Oh, when
you've got power and signs,
00:14:30.53\00:14:33.57
that shows God is in it."
00:14:33.60\00:14:34.94
No, it doesn't, maybe the devil.
00:14:34.97\00:14:37.67
"And with all unrighteous
00:14:37.71\00:14:39.24
deception among
those who perish,
00:14:39.27\00:14:41.61
because they did not
receive the love of the truth,
00:14:41.64\00:14:44.61
that they might be saved.
00:14:44.65\00:14:46.21
For this reason,
00:14:50.89\00:14:52.95
God will send
them strong delusion,
00:14:52.99\00:14:56.83
that they
should believe the lie,
00:14:56.86\00:15:00.53
that they all may be condemned
00:15:00.56\00:15:02.36
who did not believe the truth
00:15:02.40\00:15:06.27
but had pleasure
in unrighteousness."
00:15:06.30\00:15:09.54
Now, the great deception
00:15:09.57\00:15:11.77
is going to be over truth.
00:15:11.81\00:15:16.64
There's going to
be lots of miracles.
00:15:16.68\00:15:18.25
There's going to
be lots of signs.
00:15:18.28\00:15:20.12
Going to be lots of wonders,
00:15:20.15\00:15:22.05
and billions of
people are going to say,
00:15:22.08\00:15:24.15
"This is Jesus."
00:15:24.19\00:15:26.22
It's not Jesus at all.
00:15:26.25\00:15:27.92
It's Satan.
00:15:27.96\00:15:30.03
How can you tell the difference?
00:15:30.06\00:15:32.76
By getting to know Jesus
and by reading your Bibles
00:15:32.79\00:15:36.97
and by keeping the
commandments of God
00:15:37.00\00:15:39.50
and by following
the truth, my friend.
00:15:39.53\00:15:43.04
This prophecy is
already being fulfilled
00:15:43.07\00:15:47.51
and millions of
people are going to be...
00:15:47.54\00:15:51.21
They're being
deceived right now.
00:15:51.25\00:15:56.38
"Can you give us
examples in history
00:15:56.42\00:15:58.72
of people believing the lies
00:15:58.75\00:16:00.76
told by this super liar?"
00:16:00.79\00:16:05.19
Boy, bless your heart.
00:16:05.23\00:16:06.56
We've seen a few
of those, have we not?
00:16:06.59\00:16:09.80
You go back not that long
ago, back to the days of Hitler.
00:16:09.83\00:16:14.57
Now, the Germans
are very smart people.
00:16:14.60\00:16:17.27
They're intelligent.
00:16:17.31\00:16:19.11
They're sophisticated.
00:16:19.14\00:16:20.64
They're educated.
00:16:20.68\00:16:22.31
They gave us Einstein,
00:16:22.34\00:16:23.68
who gave us the
theory of relativity,
00:16:23.71\00:16:26.01
E=MC2.
00:16:26.05\00:16:28.72
So the Germans are
smart and 95% of the German,
00:16:28.75\00:16:33.59
some say more than 95%,
00:16:33.62\00:16:35.92
but 95% of the
Germans shouted Sieg Heil,
00:16:35.96\00:16:41.36
and they bowed
down before Hitler.
00:16:41.40\00:16:44.33
And they caused the deaths
00:16:44.37\00:16:45.70
of 18 million
people around the world.
00:16:45.73\00:16:48.80
They butchered the
Jews by the millions.
00:16:48.84\00:16:52.64
It's a bit scary, isn't it?
00:16:52.67\00:16:55.04
The smart Christian people,
00:16:55.08\00:16:57.28
they were mainly
Lutherans and Roman Catholics
00:16:57.31\00:16:59.58
and other Protestants as well.
00:16:59.61\00:17:04.25
They believed lies.
00:17:04.29\00:17:08.16
So how can we be saved?
00:17:08.19\00:17:10.53
By being smart and
by following Christ
00:17:10.56\00:17:15.30
and thinking for ourselves,
00:17:15.33\00:17:18.00
and by studying the scriptures,
00:17:18.03\00:17:20.24
and by refusing
to be brainwashed
00:17:20.27\00:17:24.41
by the corrupt media.
00:17:24.44\00:17:27.84
You're listening.
00:17:27.88\00:17:31.08
"What is truth?
00:17:31.11\00:17:32.58
Can we all have our own truth?"
00:17:32.61\00:17:36.35
Oh, so sorry.
00:17:36.38\00:17:37.72
No, you can't
have your own truth,
00:17:37.75\00:17:40.06
Wayne, and my
distinguished audience.
00:17:40.09\00:17:44.39
Truth is not subjective.
00:17:44.43\00:17:46.29
I don't have my
own private truth.
00:17:46.33\00:17:50.47
The earth goes around the sun.
00:17:50.50\00:17:54.14
That's not my truth.
00:17:54.17\00:17:57.47
The earth is a sphere.
00:17:57.51\00:18:00.31
That's not my
opinion, that's not my truth.
00:18:00.34\00:18:04.81
Marriage is
between a man and a woman,
00:18:04.85\00:18:08.08
that's the truth.
00:18:08.12\00:18:10.39
The seventh day is the
Sabbath of the Lord your God.
00:18:10.42\00:18:14.02
That's not my opinion.
00:18:14.06\00:18:16.42
That is the truth.
00:18:16.46\00:18:19.06
Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
00:18:19.09\00:18:22.60
He is the Savior of the world.
00:18:22.63\00:18:24.77
That is not my opinion.
00:18:24.80\00:18:27.90
That is not my private truth.
00:18:27.94\00:18:30.61
Truth is not...
00:18:30.64\00:18:31.97
I was watching a
program in Australia,
00:18:32.01\00:18:35.11
and it was on the ABC
and the commentator said,
00:18:35.14\00:18:40.45
"Can I have your truth?"
00:18:40.48\00:18:41.98
The lady said, "Yes, I'm
happy to share my truth."
00:18:42.02\00:18:44.65
I thought, "What stupidity?
00:18:44.69\00:18:48.62
There's no such
thing as private truth."
00:18:48.66\00:18:53.63
Now, it is also truth
that God loves people.
00:18:53.66\00:18:56.50
God loves you.
00:18:56.53\00:18:58.63
And Jesus said,
"Sanctify them by the truth,
00:18:58.67\00:19:02.40
your word is the truth."
00:19:02.44\00:19:04.57
If you want ultimate
truth about ultimate reality,
00:19:04.61\00:19:09.08
you get it here
in the Word of God.
00:19:09.11\00:19:11.38
When did you last
read it, my friend?
00:19:11.41\00:19:13.38
We need to be
reading our Bibles every day.
00:19:13.42\00:19:16.69
We need to
smarten up and understand
00:19:16.72\00:19:20.06
the truth.
00:19:20.09\00:19:23.43
"What is the mark of the beast?"
00:19:23.46\00:19:28.80
"What is the mark of the beast?"
00:19:28.83\00:19:30.63
My friend Wayne says.
00:19:30.67\00:19:32.80
Would you like
to have an answer?
00:19:32.83\00:19:36.74
Well, let me read to
you from the apocalypse
00:19:36.77\00:19:39.57
that you all know is
the Book of Revelation.
00:19:39.61\00:19:42.71
This is out of the New KJV.
00:19:42.74\00:19:47.72
Revelation 13:16-17,
00:19:47.75\00:19:51.09
"He causes all,
both small and great,
00:19:51.12\00:19:53.39
rich and poor, free and slave,
00:19:53.42\00:19:55.89
to receive a mark
on their right hand,
00:19:55.92\00:19:59.36
or on their forehead,
00:19:59.39\00:20:02.90
and that no one may
buy or sell except one
00:20:02.93\00:20:06.00
who has the mark or
the name of the beast
00:20:06.03\00:20:09.50
or the number of his name."
00:20:09.54\00:20:13.81
I don't have a lot of
time to talk about this,
00:20:13.84\00:20:16.58
but let me try to summarize it.
00:20:16.61\00:20:19.85
In the last days, I've
studied this prophecies
00:20:19.88\00:20:22.78
and I believe I
understand these prophecies.
00:20:22.82\00:20:28.22
And we can see these
prophecies coming to pass.
00:20:28.26\00:20:32.53
The Bible indicates,
00:20:32.56\00:20:33.90
there's going to
come an unholy alliance
00:20:33.93\00:20:36.70
and unholy marriage
00:20:36.73\00:20:39.07
between church and state,
00:20:39.10\00:20:42.67
starting we believe
00:20:42.70\00:20:44.04
in the United States of America.
00:20:44.07\00:20:46.21
It'll be what is
called a theocracy
00:20:46.24\00:20:49.74
where people think
they're going to put
00:20:49.78\00:20:51.41
God in charge of everything,
00:20:51.45\00:20:53.42
when in fact
they're putting the devil
00:20:53.45\00:20:55.18
in charge of everything.
00:20:55.22\00:20:58.19
And then
conditions in this world
00:20:58.22\00:21:00.22
are going to get so bad.
00:21:00.26\00:21:03.02
Crime is going to get so bad.
00:21:03.06\00:21:05.16
Violence is going to get so bad.
00:21:05.19\00:21:07.43
Natural disasters
are going to get so bad.
00:21:07.46\00:21:10.07
Wars are going to get so bad.
00:21:10.10\00:21:13.07
The risk of annihilation
is going to get so bad.
00:21:13.10\00:21:17.21
People are going to
say in their desperation,
00:21:17.24\00:21:20.94
"These things
are happening to us
00:21:20.98\00:21:22.51
because we've
turned away from God.
00:21:22.54\00:21:24.45
We've got to get back to God."
00:21:24.48\00:21:27.38
And then they're going to say,
00:21:27.42\00:21:28.75
"We're going to
have our own laws.
00:21:28.78\00:21:33.42
Really, they're
going to be God's laws,
00:21:33.46\00:21:35.26
but we're going to
enforce this certain mark."
00:21:35.29\00:21:41.20
Now, I don't have time
today to talk about this mark,
00:21:41.23\00:21:45.37
this identifying mark.
00:21:45.40\00:21:47.24
People are going to
get it in their foreheads
00:21:47.27\00:21:49.14
because they choose it.
00:21:49.17\00:21:51.51
Another people are
going to get it in their hands
00:21:51.54\00:21:53.88
because they just go
along with the crowd.
00:21:53.91\00:21:56.44
Do you know what
I'm talking about?
00:21:56.48\00:21:58.35
That means they just
go along with the crowd.
00:21:58.38\00:22:01.32
They get all their
information off the media,
00:22:01.35\00:22:03.95
through the medium,
00:22:03.99\00:22:05.32
which no longer is
giving objective truth
00:22:05.35\00:22:07.46
but simply giving
opinions and propaganda.
00:22:07.49\00:22:11.39
Did you know this?
00:22:11.43\00:22:13.13
Most of the media today
is simply giving propaganda
00:22:13.16\00:22:18.60
and falsifications,
00:22:18.63\00:22:20.10
not even trying
to tell the truth.
00:22:20.14\00:22:23.41
And so this mark is
going to be enforced.
00:22:23.44\00:22:27.48
And most people are going
to do what they did in Germany
00:22:27.51\00:22:32.51
during the time of Hitler.
00:22:32.55\00:22:34.92
They're just going to
go along to get along.
00:22:34.95\00:22:37.85
You hear this,
00:22:37.89\00:22:39.22
they're just going to
go along to get along.
00:22:39.25\00:22:42.19
They're going to compromise.
00:22:42.22\00:22:45.03
Mediocre people
will do mediocre things.
00:22:45.06\00:22:49.46
They want to stay
in with the crowd.
00:22:49.50\00:22:52.17
They have the herd mentality.
00:22:52.20\00:22:54.57
They go with the crowd.
00:22:54.60\00:22:56.20
They don't think for themselves.
00:22:56.24\00:22:58.21
All they think about
is their own security,
00:23:02.41\00:23:06.88
and their own prosperity,
00:23:06.92\00:23:09.52
and their own well-being,
and their own bank accounts.
00:23:09.55\00:23:14.52
And that's why it says, "Unless
you get this thing, this mark,
00:23:14.56\00:23:18.66
you won't be
allowed to buy or sell."
00:23:18.69\00:23:20.63
And the vast majority
of people are going to say,
00:23:20.66\00:23:22.80
"Well, whatever
affects my bank account
00:23:22.83\00:23:25.50
or my income or my wealth
00:23:25.53\00:23:29.20
that's the thing
that counts to me.
00:23:29.24\00:23:31.04
I'll do it."
00:23:31.07\00:23:34.88
And when people sell
their souls for money,
00:23:34.91\00:23:40.58
when they break the
law of God for popularity,
00:23:40.62\00:23:46.35
when they go along with
the decree of the church
00:23:46.39\00:23:48.62
instead of the
commandments of God,
00:23:48.66\00:23:51.49
then, my friend, they
get the mark of the beast.
00:23:51.53\00:23:56.63
And people are ready to receive
the mark of the beast right now
00:23:56.67\00:24:02.37
because they are prepared
00:24:02.40\00:24:03.74
to follow
tradition and miracles,
00:24:03.77\00:24:06.88
and dreams and false prophets
00:24:06.91\00:24:10.65
and false politicians also,
00:24:10.68\00:24:14.42
instead of Jesus
who said, "I am the Way,
00:24:14.45\00:24:17.99
the Truth and the Life."
00:24:18.02\00:24:20.56
My friend, these
are serious times.
00:24:20.59\00:24:23.19
You and I better wake up.
00:24:23.22\00:24:24.56
We better get smart.
00:24:24.59\00:24:25.96
We better follow Jesus
and get the seal of God.
00:24:25.99\00:24:29.33
What do you think?
00:24:29.36\00:24:32.33
"Is there any good
news in the prophecies?"
00:24:32.37\00:24:37.27
Yes, there's plenty of good news
00:24:37.31\00:24:38.64
in the prophecies.
00:24:38.67\00:24:40.91
The good news is that God
is going to have a people.
00:24:40.94\00:24:44.31
God is going to have a
people in the last days.
00:24:44.35\00:24:46.72
They won't bend.
00:24:46.75\00:24:48.08
They won't bow.
00:24:48.12\00:24:50.09
They won't budge
like the three Hebrews
00:24:50.12\00:24:53.32
on the plain of Dura
back in the days of Babylon.
00:24:53.36\00:24:55.99
He's going to have people
who got fire in their bellies
00:24:56.02\00:24:59.89
and Christ in their hearts.
00:24:59.93\00:25:04.60
Stubborn people.
00:25:04.63\00:25:06.07
You say, "Well,
stubbornness is wrong."
00:25:06.10\00:25:07.44
No, no, no,
00:25:07.47\00:25:08.80
stubbornness for the
cause of Christ is good.
00:25:08.84\00:25:13.78
God is going to have a people,
00:25:13.81\00:25:15.14
and then Christ
is going to come.
00:25:15.18\00:25:19.31
Listen, Revelation 19,
00:25:19.35\00:25:22.65
"Now, I saw
heaven open and behold,
00:25:22.68\00:25:24.55
a white horse.
00:25:24.59\00:25:25.92
And He who sat on him
was called Faithful and True,
00:25:25.95\00:25:28.89
in righteousness He
judges and makes war.
00:25:28.92\00:25:31.73
His eyes were
like a flame of fire,
00:25:31.76\00:25:33.76
on his head were many crowns.
00:25:33.80\00:25:35.76
Had a name written that
one, no one knew except Himself.
00:25:35.80\00:25:39.57
He was clothed with
a robe dipped in blood,
00:25:39.60\00:25:42.77
and His name is
called The Word of God."
00:25:42.80\00:25:46.78
It's Jesus.
00:25:46.81\00:25:48.28
"The armies in
heaven, clothed in fine linen,
00:25:48.31\00:25:51.78
white and clean,
00:25:51.81\00:25:53.31
followed Him on white horses."
00:25:53.35\00:25:56.22
This is a symbolic
apocalyptic picture
00:25:56.25\00:26:01.66
of the return of the King.
00:26:01.69\00:26:05.33
The good news is this.
00:26:05.36\00:26:07.03
Are you still listening?
00:26:07.06\00:26:08.43
The good news is this.
00:26:08.46\00:26:10.23
Christ is going to come.
00:26:10.27\00:26:13.60
The birth pains
are going to give birth
00:26:13.64\00:26:16.71
to a new creation, a new world,
00:26:16.74\00:26:19.91
no pain, no
sickness, no death, no disease.
00:26:19.94\00:26:25.35
Christ is coming.
00:26:25.38\00:26:28.48
The King is coming.
00:26:28.52\00:26:32.45
That is the good news.
00:26:32.49\00:26:34.22
What should we do?
00:26:34.26\00:26:37.79
Stop believing
man-made religion.
00:26:37.83\00:26:41.43
Stop following
phony-false prophets.
00:26:41.46\00:26:45.33
Stop following lies,
00:26:45.37\00:26:48.70
believe the truth.
00:26:48.74\00:26:51.54
Jesus said, "I am the
Way, the Truth and the Life."
00:26:51.57\00:26:56.41
Listen, my friend,
00:26:56.44\00:26:57.88
let's smarten up today
in this apocalyptic age.
00:26:57.91\00:27:02.88
Believe in the
Christ, who believes in you.
00:27:02.92\00:27:08.82
Amen and amen.
00:27:08.86\00:27:10.33
