Who am I? 00:03:14.21\00:03:19.36 Where did I come from? 00:03:19.39\00:03:22.32 Am I a planetary accident 00:03:22.35\00:03:27.11 or am I a child of God? 00:03:27.14\00:03:30.57 Why I am here? Where am I going? 00:03:30.60\00:03:34.44 I am told today by cynics and atheists 00:03:34.47\00:03:38.64 that man is the product of time, 00:03:38.67\00:03:42.65 remember this, time plus matter plus chance. 00:03:42.68\00:03:48.60 And so we simply came on the planet by accident 00:03:48.63\00:03:52.25 and that means we're going exit by accident. 00:03:52.28\00:03:55.12 I am not buying it. 00:03:55.15\00:03:57.26 The purpose of these lectures 00:03:57.29\00:03:59.46 is to answer the big questions of life, listen to me. 00:03:59.49\00:04:07.36 We've had incredible difficulties 00:04:07.39\00:04:10.68 getting these programs going this week. 00:04:10.71\00:04:14.80 My team worked their hearts out 00:04:14.83\00:04:17.56 with their brothers and sisters from PNG to get it ready. 00:04:17.59\00:04:24.27 But we did it because we believe God wanted us to come here. 00:04:24.30\00:04:29.03 And tonight, when we turned on he giant projectors, 00:04:29.06\00:04:32.89 they came thousands of miles from Los Angeles, 00:04:32.92\00:04:38.01 they wouldn't work. 00:04:38.04\00:04:40.78 And just a little while ago we were asking the question, 00:04:40.81\00:04:44.18 what we gonna do because it doesn't appear 00:04:44.21\00:04:47.52 that the projectors are going to work. 00:04:47.55\00:04:49.55 We got four projectors right now, glory be to God, 00:04:49.58\00:04:54.08 we got two of those projectors working. 00:04:54.11\00:04:56.83 Now tomorrow night by the grace of God 00:04:56.86\00:04:59.05 we'll have the four of them working 00:04:59.08\00:05:00.73 and double the power on the screens. 00:05:00.76\00:05:04.51 But I want to tell you folks something, 00:05:04.54\00:05:07.03 you're going to come to these programs 00:05:07.06\00:05:10.39 and the crowds are going to grow. 00:05:10.42\00:05:13.39 They are going to get bigger and bigger 00:05:13.42\00:05:16.76 and you're going to find it hard to get a place to sit. 00:05:16.79\00:05:22.07 You're going to find it hard to get a place to stand 00:05:22.10\00:05:26.03 because we're going to deal 00:05:26.06\00:05:28.38 with the great facts of Bible prophecy 00:05:28.41\00:05:32.51 and the facts of science. 00:05:32.54\00:05:34.89 And tonight, I am going to take you 00:05:34.92\00:05:38.22 my beloved friends, I am going to take you 00:05:38.25\00:05:42.89 on the incredible journey of a lifetime. 00:05:42.92\00:05:47.82 I am going to take you. 00:05:47.85\00:05:49.22 We're going to put it up on the screen now. 00:05:49.25\00:05:50.83 I am going to take you to the land of Egypt. 00:05:50.86\00:05:54.85 Egypt, did you know 00:05:54.88\00:05:59.03 that the Bible was born in the land of Egypt? 00:05:59.06\00:06:05.61 Did you know that? 00:06:05.64\00:06:07.08 That's where the Bible came from. 00:06:07.11\00:06:08.64 That's where it was born. 00:06:08.67\00:06:11.56 The Bible, the first five books of the Bible 00:06:11.59\00:06:13.89 were written by a mighty Egyptian prince. 00:06:13.92\00:06:19.83 Egypt is the longest, lasting civilization 00:06:19.86\00:06:22.27 in the history of the world. 00:06:22.30\00:06:24.51 Australia was discovered in 1770. 00:06:24.54\00:06:29.00 United States, 1492. 00:06:29.03\00:06:32.71 1776, the Americans fought the war of independence 00:06:32.74\00:06:37.12 with Great Britain and they won. 00:06:37.15\00:06:43.40 These are modern countries. 00:06:43.43\00:06:45.88 But Egypt goes back at least to 3,000 B.C. 00:06:45.91\00:06:53.87 The red land of Egypt was born 00:06:53.90\00:06:57.91 on the banks of the River Nile. 00:06:57.94\00:07:02.52 I just got to come over here at the black boards 00:07:02.55\00:07:04.66 and I am going to put up a little map 00:07:04.69\00:07:07.65 of the land of Egypt, 00:07:07.68\00:07:09.28 so that you will know tonight where we are going. 00:07:09.31\00:07:13.78 This is the Medaterrian Sea. 00:07:13.81\00:07:15.96 Down here we have the delta 00:07:15.99\00:07:19.18 and the land of Egypt is about a 1,000 kilometers 00:07:19.21\00:07:23.55 from north to south. 00:07:23.58\00:07:26.97 There you have outside of Cairo, the great pyramids of Giza 00:07:27.00\00:07:33.77 and you come further down the river, 00:07:33.80\00:07:36.73 in fact you go up the river and you come to Karnak, 00:07:36.76\00:07:43.99 which is the greatest temple complex in the world. 00:07:44.02\00:07:49.38 Tonight, even though we've only got two projectors working, 00:07:49.41\00:07:53.64 we are not concerned at all because we're going to show you 00:07:53.67\00:07:57.96 some tremendous pictures 00:07:57.99\00:08:00.40 that you're not going to see anywhere else 00:08:00.43\00:08:03.57 and more than show you pictures, 00:08:03.60\00:08:06.05 we're going to give you evidence of the living God. 00:08:06.08\00:08:13.20 Rather to say it, Egypt is the gift of the Nile 00:08:13.23\00:08:19.92 and the Nile is the gift of the Gods. 00:08:19.95\00:08:23.28 Therefore they believed they were the children of God. 00:08:23.31\00:08:26.65 The pharaohs were worshiped as God kings. 00:08:26.68\00:08:31.48 The wealth of the ancient Egyptians, Vegas description. 00:08:31.51\00:08:37.80 Pharaoh Osorkon 00:08:37.83\00:08:40.82 gifted 383 tons of gold and silver to the temple 00:08:40.85\00:08:48.36 during four years, worth billions of dollars. 00:08:48.39\00:08:53.69 The Bible spoke about the wealth of Egypt. 00:08:53.72\00:08:58.95 When I saw many, many years ago-- 00:08:58.98\00:09:01.24 I've been to Egypt many, many, many times, 00:09:01.27\00:09:03.75 but when I saw the buildings I was dazed and amazed. 00:09:03.78\00:09:11.14 My heart was strangely moved 00:09:11.17\00:09:14.06 when I went into the Valley of the Kings, 00:09:14.09\00:09:17.01 and I saw there the tomb of King Tutankhamun. 00:09:17.04\00:09:22.88 The Bible was born in this culture. 00:09:22.91\00:09:26.09 It was not born in an unsophisticated culture. 00:09:26.12\00:09:30.39 This book that I hold in my hands is the only book 00:09:30.42\00:09:36.07 that tells us where we came from and why we are here 00:09:36.10\00:09:42.25 and where we are going. 00:09:42.28\00:09:46.23 And if it is true then we have hope. 00:09:46.26\00:09:51.64 The Egyptians were great writers. 00:09:51.67\00:09:53.53 They wrote on almost everything. 00:09:53.56\00:09:57.26 Their writing made up of strange pictures 00:09:57.29\00:10:00.93 is called the hieroglyph or the hieroglyphics. 00:10:00.96\00:10:06.82 Nobody could understand 00:10:06.85\00:10:09.28 the meaning of the strange letters 00:10:09.31\00:10:13.30 for hundreds even thousands of years. 00:10:13.33\00:10:16.84 Then Napoleon Bonaparte marched down into the land of Egypt 00:10:16.87\00:10:21.86 ands he took with him a group of scholars 00:10:21.89\00:10:25.47 as well as a great army of solders. 00:10:25.50\00:10:28.79 And when his scholars were digging 00:10:28.82\00:10:30.82 outside the little village of Rosetta in the delta 00:10:30.85\00:10:37.23 they discovered what is called today 00:10:37.26\00:10:40.11 the Rosetta stone, there it is. 00:10:40.14\00:10:45.06 It is a trilingual inscription, Hyreoglyphic, Demotic, 00:10:45.09\00:10:51.73 two types of ancient Egyptian and also Greece. 00:10:51.76\00:10:56.86 Now, Greece was easily understood. 00:10:56.89\00:10:59.82 A young Englishman by the name of Young 00:10:59.85\00:11:04.49 worked on this amazing stone tablet for many years. 00:11:04.52\00:11:11.95 And he made some advancement 00:11:11.98\00:11:14.45 but he could not break this secret code. 00:11:14.48\00:11:17.58 That was left to a young Frenchman by the name 00:11:17.61\00:11:20.70 of Jean-Francois Champollion, there he is. 00:11:20.73\00:11:28.31 At least there's a picture of him. 00:11:28.34\00:11:31.46 And after working on this for a number of years 00:11:31.49\00:11:35.23 he announced to the scholarly world 00:11:35.26\00:11:39.17 that the ancient code had been broken. 00:11:39.20\00:11:44.29 And Egypt started to tell her secrets. 00:11:44.32\00:11:50.00 Now tonight with God's help, 00:11:50.03\00:11:53.81 I am going to tell you some of the secrets 00:11:53.84\00:11:56.36 of the ancient Egyptians that tell us where we came from, 00:11:56.39\00:12:00.56 why we are here and where we are going. 00:12:00.59\00:12:04.86 Let me talk now. 00:12:04.89\00:12:06.26 I got more material than I can deal with tonight. 00:12:06.29\00:12:09.78 The program tomorrow night is even more fascinating, 00:12:09.81\00:12:13.71 but let me tell you about the great discovery. 00:12:13.74\00:12:21.60 Over there in the Cairo museum when I was there last 00:12:23.48\00:12:27.11 was a great scholar by the name of Dr. Hawass. 00:12:27.14\00:12:32.49 Dr. Hawass allowed us to have 00:12:32.52\00:12:36.88 sole use of the Cairo museum for an evening. 00:12:36.91\00:12:42.23 I spent that evening with the queen. 00:12:42.26\00:12:47.65 What am I talking about? 00:12:47.68\00:12:52.11 Many years ago, more than 3, 000 years ago 00:12:52.14\00:12:57.06 there was a beautiful girl and she became the pharaoh. 00:12:57.09\00:13:03.19 It was not allowed that a woman should become the pharaoh 00:13:03.22\00:13:07.61 but she became the pharaoh. 00:13:07.64\00:13:10.50 But in Russia and another places I told the people, 00:13:12.92\00:13:18.71 our Queen Hatshepsut had been lost, 00:13:18.74\00:13:23.24 her mummy was lost, most likely destroyed. 00:13:23.27\00:13:29.27 Then Dr. Hawass discovered an old, old female mummy. 00:13:29.30\00:13:37.14 And he also discovered a little box. 00:13:39.84\00:13:44.42 And in the box there was a tooth. 00:13:44.45\00:13:48.43 A tooth in the box. 00:13:48.46\00:13:52.89 And on the box was written 00:13:52.92\00:13:54.80 in the coptos the name Hatshepsut 00:13:54.83\00:14:00.71 because now we are talking about Queen, 00:14:00.74\00:14:03.21 Pharaoh Hatshepsut who became the greatest ruler of her time. 00:14:03.24\00:14:10.50 Some would say the most powerful woman 00:14:10.53\00:14:14.84 in the history of the ancient world. 00:14:14.87\00:14:18.87 When he looked at this mummy he discovered, 00:14:18.90\00:14:23.37 as you can see on the screen 00:14:23.40\00:14:26.68 that there was a tooth missing in the upper jaw 00:14:26.71\00:14:34.37 and they wondered whose jaw is this. 00:14:34.40\00:14:38.91 And then they got the tooth out of the box from Queen Hatshepsut 00:14:38.94\00:14:45.36 and they pushed it up into the jaw 00:14:45.39\00:14:49.55 and it was a perfect fit. 00:14:49.58\00:14:55.33 We had discovered after so long 00:14:55.36\00:15:02.26 the body of the bearded queen. 00:15:02.29\00:15:07.58 Why she called the bearded queen? 00:15:07.61\00:15:09.31 Because the beard is the symbol of the pharaoh. 00:15:09.34\00:15:14.79 And so in her inscriptions she's shown as a female 00:15:14.82\00:15:19.91 but she's shown as a king. 00:15:19.94\00:15:25.68 She's shown as a male with the beard of the high priest. 00:15:25.71\00:15:31.83 Now you say, "So what? 00:15:33.97\00:15:37.82 Why you telling us this? What is so significant?" 00:15:37.85\00:15:42.55 you say to me, "You actually saw 00:15:42.58\00:15:45.29 the mummy of the Queen Hatshepsut?" Absolutely. 00:15:45.32\00:15:48.86 I gazed at her shrunken form. 00:15:49.97\00:15:53.96 Dr. Hawass, the greatest Egyptologist in the world 00:15:55.44\00:15:59.98 standing there with my friend Dr. Randall Younker 00:16:00.01\00:16:02.37 from Andrews University. 00:16:02.40\00:16:04.32 Have a look friend, gazed upon the body 00:16:04.35\00:16:10.86 of the great lady pharaoh 00:16:10.89\00:16:14.23 and wonder who was she? 00:16:14.26\00:16:21.84 Dr. Hawass said she was powerful, 00:16:21.87\00:16:28.03 she was mighty, her enemies trembled before her. 00:16:28.06\00:16:35.30 Who was she?

Listen to me. 00:30:12.85\00:30:17.52 The Bible tells me that the children of Israel 00:30:17.55\00:30:21.04 lead by Moses left the land of Egypt. 00:30:21.07\00:30:24.81 You know the story, it's called the Exodus. 00:30:24.84\00:30:29.06 The Bible tells us that the Egyptians came at 00:30:29.09\00:30:32.83 after the children of Israel and try to destroy them. 00:30:32.86\00:30:38.31 But the Bible says the children of Israel 00:30:38.34\00:30:41.04 went through, they ran over the Red Sea. 00:30:41.07\00:30:45.24 And the waves came rolling down upon the Egyptians 00:30:45.27\00:30:49.44 and they were drowned. 00:30:49.47\00:30:53.37 And one of the most amazing experiences 00:30:53.40\00:30:56.04 I've ever had was to go into the tomb of Thutmose III, 00:30:56.07\00:31:02.39 the pharaoh who said to Moses, "I will not let the people go." 00:31:02.42\00:31:07.87 I am going to take you into that tomb. 00:31:07.90\00:31:10.23 This tomb is only recently been opened. 00:31:10.26\00:31:13.70 You're seeing pictures that very few people have seen. 00:31:13.73\00:31:17.45 This is the tomb of the man who died in 1450 B.C. saying, 00:31:17.48\00:31:25.45 "I do not know God and I won't obey Him." 00:31:25.48\00:31:29.32 I've shown you his picture, there is his coffin. 00:31:29.35\00:31:34.14 I am with my friend from Andrews University, 00:31:34.17\00:31:37.53 Dr. Randy Younker and we're looking at the tomb. 00:31:37.56\00:31:43.01 Now one of the amazing things 00:31:43.04\00:31:45.27 Dr. Younker pointed out to me was this, 00:31:45.30\00:31:48.80 that the tomb was put together very quickly. 00:31:48.83\00:31:53.17 It's not even finished. 00:31:53.20\00:31:55.93 And he said to me, 00:31:55.96\00:31:58.77 "they were in a big hurry to bury this man." 00:31:58.80\00:32:02.31 They didn't expect him to die. 00:32:02.34\00:32:06.98 And he didn't expect to die himself. 00:32:07.01\00:32:11.17 But the Bible tells me that this pharaoh, Thutmose III 00:32:11.20\00:32:18.25 who fought God died in the waters of the Red Sea 00:32:18.28\00:32:24.54 and he's buried, we believe in that tomb. 00:32:24.57\00:32:30.78 So what does it mean? 00:32:30.81\00:32:32.74 You know, I've got so much I can show you, 00:32:32.77\00:32:34.65 but what does this mean? 00:32:34.68\00:32:36.23 I will tell you what it means. 00:32:36.26\00:32:38.64 It means this, that the Bible is historically accurate. 00:32:38.67\00:32:44.70 The Bible is not a mass of fables. 00:32:44.73\00:32:48.01 It's not a bunch of fairy stories. 00:32:48.04\00:32:50.70 The Bible is true. Now listen. 00:32:50.73\00:32:54.65 If the Bible is true, you ought to be very glad. 00:32:54.68\00:32:59.56 And I'll tell you why you ought to be glad, 00:32:59.59\00:33:02.02 because the Bible tells you where you came from 00:33:02.05\00:33:06.47 and the Bible tells you why you are here 00:33:06.50\00:33:09.79 and the Bible tells you where you are going. 00:33:09.82\00:33:13.12 Isn't that amazing? 00:33:13.15\00:33:15.10 The Bible tells you, 00:33:15.13\00:33:16.59 tells me that you and I are not a bit of slime. 00:33:16.62\00:33:22.01 We're not just a mass of atoms and molecules. 00:33:22.04\00:33:26.07 The Bible tells us that we came from the hand of God 00:33:26.10\00:33:30.48 and every person is important. 00:33:30.51\00:33:33.35 There's nobody who is not important. 00:33:33.38\00:33:35.97 Every person is important 00:33:36.00\00:33:37.64 because every person is a child of God. 00:33:37.67\00:33:42.98 When you walk out of this meeting tonight 00:33:43.01\00:33:44.87 you can say-- maybe some of you will say, 00:33:44.90\00:33:47.35 "But you know I am not very wealthy." 00:33:47.38\00:33:49.47 That doesn't matter a great deal. 00:33:49.50\00:33:52.04 You are wealthy if you know that you came from the hand of God 00:33:52.07\00:33:56.29 and one day you're going to be with Christ 00:33:56.32\00:33:58.69 in paradise, you see. 00:33:58.72\00:34:02.06 So the Bible tells me where I came from. 00:34:02.09\00:34:06.21 It tells me why I am here 00:34:06.24\00:34:09.63 and it tells me where I am going. 00:34:09.66\00:34:13.21 And that is why I love biblical archeology. 00:34:13.24\00:34:19.26 Well, who were these ancient Egyptians? 00:34:19.29\00:34:22.52 For a few moments look at their accomplishments. 00:34:22.55\00:34:26.84 They were the builders of the pyramid, houses of deaths. 00:34:26.87\00:34:32.12 They were obsessed with deaths. 00:34:32.15\00:34:36.84 If you don't know God, you ought to be. 00:34:36.87\00:34:40.43 They were obsessed with death, 00:34:40.46\00:34:42.67 therefore they built the pyramids as tombs. 00:34:42.70\00:34:47.57 They dug into the sides of the mountains 00:34:47.60\00:34:50.03 and they buried their pharaohs 00:34:50.06\00:34:52.81 believing that this was the way to ensure their afterlife. 00:34:52.84\00:34:59.02 Now the great pyramid was build by Khufu 00:34:59.05\00:35:02.74 or he's call Cheops by the Greece. 00:35:02.77\00:35:06.29 Build, well, almost 5000 years ago 00:35:06.32\00:35:09.39 now, 2650 B.C. about a 150 meter high, 00:35:09.42\00:35:15.01 480 feet high, 775 feet on each side, 00:35:15.04\00:35:19.50 made up of two and half million giant blocks of lime stone 00:35:19.53\00:35:24.13 laid out perfectly north, south, east and west. 00:35:24.16\00:35:30.75 Why was it built? 00:35:30.78\00:35:33.12 It was built as the cosmic mountain, 00:35:33.15\00:35:37.20 the home of the Gods. 00:35:37.23\00:35:39.99 Now listen to me. 00:35:40.02\00:35:43.76 The Egyptians worshiped many gods 00:35:43.79\00:35:46.92 and they worshiped their ancestors. 00:35:46.95\00:35:50.39 They worshiped the spirits of the dead 00:35:50.42\00:35:54.99 and that religion is aptly oppose 00:35:55.02\00:35:57.17 to the religion of God and the religion of the Bible. 00:35:57.20\00:36:02.42 They believed in powerful spirit forces. 00:36:02.45\00:36:08.14 They believed that it was important 00:36:08.17\00:36:10.11 to preserve the body for afterlife 00:36:10.14\00:36:12.74 and that is why they practice mummification. 00:36:12.77\00:36:18.26 They built these great houses of death 00:36:18.29\00:36:21.40 because of their quest for immortality. 00:36:21.43\00:36:26.28 That's why they built the Karnak temple. 00:36:26.31\00:36:30.52 I've been to the Karnak temple more times than I can remember. 00:36:30.55\00:36:34.60 It is the largest religious complex ever built 00:36:34.63\00:36:38.04 in the history of the world. 00:36:38.07\00:36:39.44 It is more than a mile square. 00:36:39.47\00:36:43.42 I've been inside the temple of Amun Ra, 00:36:47.05\00:36:51.48 it cover 61 acres, just the temple. 00:36:51.51\00:36:55.01 About 30 or 26 something hectors. 00:36:55.04\00:36:59.85 Then I've gone to the Great Hypostyle Hall 00:36:59.88\00:37:02.77 that was built by Seti and Ramesses the great. 00:37:02.80\00:37:09.22 Only a small part of it is standing today. 00:37:09.25\00:37:12.78 It is composed of 58,000 square feet 00:37:12.81\00:37:16.91 of massive pile ons. 00:37:16.94\00:37:19.36 Some of the columns are 75 feet high 00:37:19.39\00:37:22.58 and 32 feet in circumference. 00:37:22.61\00:37:26.75 And it's an amazing thing, 00:37:26.78\00:37:29.13 I don't know we got the pictures here tonight 00:37:29.16\00:37:30.93 because we don't have all our projectors 00:37:30.96\00:37:33.45 but you can look up 70 feet 00:37:33.48\00:37:35.86 on the tops of those mighty columns-- 00:37:35.89\00:37:38.50 there, look, bless your heart. 00:37:38.53\00:37:40.31 You can actually see some of the paint 00:37:40.34\00:37:43.60 on the top after 3000 plus years. 00:37:43.63\00:37:50.24 These were the people who gave us Moses. 00:37:50.27\00:37:57.28 Moses, the mighty Egyptian prince. 00:37:57.31\00:38:00.57 The prince of Egypt who gave us the Bible. 00:38:00.60\00:38:04.78 The Bible that tells us where we came from, 00:38:04.81\00:38:07.32 why we are here, where we are going. 00:38:07.35\00:38:10.64 The Bible that gave us this story 00:38:10.67\00:38:12.73 of the children of Israel and the great pharaoh 00:38:12.76\00:38:16.93 who said, "No, no, no, no." 00:38:16.96\00:38:20.36 And today, we can gaze upon these great buildings 00:38:20.39\00:38:24.64 in their sublime majesty 00:38:24.67\00:38:28.11 and our minds go back to the days 00:38:28.14\00:38:31.50 when Moses lived in Egypt. 00:38:31.53\00:38:35.74 The power and the glory. 00:38:35.77\00:38:39.63 And then there are the treasures of ancient Egypt. 00:38:39.66\00:38:42.33 Bless your heart, the gold. 00:38:42.36\00:38:44.90 Gold, gold, gold, heaps of this stuff. 00:38:44.93\00:38:52.21 I've gone inside the Cairo museum 00:38:52.24\00:38:54.57 with my television crew with my son David and others. 00:38:54.60\00:38:58.88 And we've looked at the wonders of the ancient Egyptians. 00:38:58.91\00:39:02.11 We've looked at the gold, 00:39:02.14\00:39:03.51 the treasures of the tomb of Tutankhamun. 00:39:03.54\00:39:08.48 We saw tons and tons and tons of gold. 00:39:08.51\00:39:15.30 It's an amazing wonderful story. 00:39:15.33\00:39:18.58 I think I should just show you 00:39:18.61\00:39:21.04 some of the wonders of the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun 00:39:21.07\00:39:26.08 who was a political nobody. 00:39:26.11\00:39:31.37 He was a nobody. 00:39:31.40\00:39:34.89 And enter his tomb went gold bullion--like this great shrine. 00:39:34.92\00:39:41.60 Big enough to hold a motor car covered with gold. 00:39:41.63\00:39:46.94 And there we have the golden death mask 00:39:46.97\00:39:50.47 of the pharaoh himself discovered by Howard Carter, 00:39:50.50\00:39:55.84 the intrepid English archeologist. 00:39:55.87\00:40:00.01 An amazing story. 00:40:00.04\00:40:03.80 When I saw the death mask of Pharaoh Tutankhamun 00:40:03.83\00:40:09.49 and when I gazed in admiration up on the throne, 00:40:09.52\00:40:15.50 my mind went to the Bible and the story of Moses. 00:40:15.53\00:40:21.84 He could have had it all, everybody bit of it. 00:40:21.87\00:40:25.59 He could have lived there in the courts of the pharaohs 00:40:25.62\00:40:30.12 and tonight he would have been in the Cairo museum 00:40:30.15\00:40:34.78 as a shriveled up mummy that looks like a bit of dead fish. 00:40:34.81\00:40:42.05 Now listen I want to tell you folks something. 00:40:42.08\00:40:45.44 You may be saying to me tonight and I said it to the KGB, 00:40:45.47\00:40:48.84 I've said it to the biggest audiences around the world. 00:40:48.87\00:40:54.75 You can see that I believe the Bible, 00:40:54.78\00:40:57.68 to right I believe the Bible. 00:40:57.71\00:41:00.64 I've been to so many places I've been to Egypt and Babylon. 00:41:00.67\00:41:05.11 I've been into the palaces, I've been to the shrines, 00:41:05.14\00:41:09.73 I've been into the tombs and as I've gone to these places, 00:41:09.76\00:41:14.07 I have done something that others have done before me. 00:41:14.10\00:41:17.93 I've taken a copy of the Bible. 00:41:17.96\00:41:23.90 And I've opened up my Bible 00:41:23.93\00:41:26.88 and I have read the stories of the Bible 00:41:26.91\00:41:29.98 and then I've looked at the hieroglyphics 00:41:30.01\00:41:33.63 and I've read it on the walls of the pharaohs as it were. 00:41:33.66\00:41:41.63 An amazing wonderful story. 00:41:41.66\00:41:45.12 I want you to get peace in your life. 00:41:45.15\00:41:47.97 I want you to have happiness in your life. 00:41:48.00\00:41:50.47 I want you to be prosperous and successful 00:41:50.50\00:41:54.08 and I want you to have what the Egyptians didn't have, 00:41:54.11\00:41:58.03 that is everlasting life. 00:41:58.06\00:42:00.29 And you can have it, 00:42:00.32\00:42:01.93 if you believe in the God 00:42:01.96\00:42:04.27 who believes in you, my brother, my sister. 00:42:04.30\00:42:09.77 Now this old book tells me the story 00:42:09.80\00:42:13.08 of how the children of Israel were led by Moses 00:42:13.11\00:42:18.30 from the city of Ramesses. 00:42:18.33\00:42:22.08 I'm gonna show you actually the city of Ramesses, 00:42:22.11\00:42:26.74 and my team up there are working 00:42:26.77\00:42:28.46 under great pressure tonight in, with tremendous difficulties 00:42:28.49\00:42:32.50 because the computers were not working and so forth, 00:42:32.53\00:42:36.58 but they're gonna get you to the city, 00:42:36.61\00:42:38.77 I believe of Ramesses which is in the delta. 00:42:38.80\00:42:44.05 Now this is the city of Tanis or portion of the city of Tanis 00:42:44.08\00:42:48.97 and we may have some pictures of Tanis, 00:42:49.00\00:42:51.15 I think that they're going to find. 00:42:51.18\00:42:54.04 But Tanis was not the city of Ramesses. 00:42:54.07\00:42:57.22 What happened was 00:42:57.25\00:42:58.62 that when Ramesses was overthrown Pi-Ramesses, 00:42:58.65\00:43:02.11 they cut it all the monuments up here to the north 00:43:02.14\00:43:05.06 and they built a new city, the city of Tanis. 00:43:05.09\00:43:09.72 But that was not the city of the Bible 00:43:09.75\00:43:13.56 and for many, many years 00:43:13.59\00:43:14.96 the archeologists didn't understand this. 00:43:14.99\00:43:17.87 But I visited the city of Tanis 00:43:17.90\00:43:20.26 and then I came down to the city of Ramesses. 00:43:20.29\00:43:25.80 And that was the city we're gonna find that soon, 00:43:25.83\00:43:29.19 I believe the city of Ramesses which is called Tell el-Dab'a. 00:43:29.22\00:43:35.33 When I went there I was quite amazed, 00:43:35.36\00:43:38.70 because I was disappointed 00:43:38.73\00:43:42.46 when I went there at Tell el-Dab'a, 00:43:42.49\00:43:45.19 which is south, there it is, this is Tell el-Dab'a. 00:43:45.22\00:43:48.24 These men are doing great under great difficulty tonight, 00:43:48.27\00:43:52.10 but there is the city all-- all that is best of Pi-Ramesses. 00:43:52.13\00:43:57.49 You're looking at what 00:43:57.52\00:43:59.26 once was perhaps the greatest city of the ancient world. 00:43:59.29\00:44:04.98 A huge, huge city. 00:44:05.01\00:44:07.69 And the Bible says, 00:44:07.72\00:44:09.77 that Moses led the children of Israel out of the Egypt 00:44:09.80\00:44:15.12 and this was once a magnificent place. 00:44:15.15\00:44:19.56 And they left there, and the Bible says, 00:44:19.59\00:44:22.36 they went through right over the Red Sea. 00:44:22.39\00:44:25.64 And I prepared a time, 00:44:25.67\00:44:27.08 they came up here in the north of Israel. 00:44:27.11\00:44:30.45 They came to a city by the name of Hazor. 00:44:30.48\00:44:36.42 Moses had gone home to glory. 00:44:36.45\00:44:39.65 Would you like to go home to glory too? 00:44:39.68\00:44:42.14 Well, Moses had gone home to glory. 00:44:42.17\00:44:46.05 And up here in Hazor, 00:44:46.08\00:44:49.04 the Bible tells me a young Hebrew 00:44:49.07\00:44:51.73 by the name of Joshua, 00:44:51.76\00:44:55.79 led the armies of Israelites against the city. 00:44:55.82\00:45:00.26 And the Bible says that they destroyed Hazor with fire. 00:45:00.29\00:45:08.26 And of course, the skeptics said of course that's not true. 00:45:08.29\00:45:13.10 Over here, yes that's Tell el-Dab'a 00:45:13.13\00:45:16.68 but I want us to get up now up in the north of Israel 00:45:16.71\00:45:21.11 and come up to Hazor, because, there it is. 00:45:21.14\00:45:26.11 Uh-huh, I thought we lost it. 00:45:26.14\00:45:29.90 Have a good look at that, 00:45:29.93\00:45:31.30 you say, well, it's not like the pharaohs, 00:45:31.33\00:45:32.80 it's not like the wealth, not like the gold, 00:45:32.83\00:45:35.01 not like the pyramids you've shown us tonight. 00:45:35.04\00:45:37.41 Not like Queen Hatshepsut, Thutmose III. 00:45:37.44\00:45:41.94 You see that. 00:45:41.97\00:45:43.91 That's the fire that is mentioned in the Bible. 00:45:43.94\00:45:47.90 The Bible says when they came up out of the land of Egypt, 00:45:47.93\00:45:51.91 they burnt the city of Hazor. 00:45:51.94\00:45:55.39 And there I am actually pointing to the ash 00:45:55.42\00:46:00.06 that was formed by the fire 00:46:00.09\00:46:03.26 that destroyed the city that is mentioned in the Bible. 00:46:03.29\00:46:08.68 Bless your heart. 00:46:08.71\00:46:10.92 As I walked around Egypt, 00:46:10.95\00:46:16.09 as I have filmed in the Cairo museum, 00:46:16.12\00:46:21.66 as I have gone into the tombs of the pharaohs, 00:46:21.69\00:46:28.53 as I have gazed upon the bodies of the pharaohs 00:46:28.56\00:46:34.18 who are actually mentioned in the Bible, 00:46:34.21\00:46:37.99 I heard myself saying, "The Bible is right." 00:46:38.02\00:46:42.37 It is right, the skeptics are wrong, the Bible is right. 00:46:42.40\00:46:48.66 As I have traveled around Egypt, 00:46:48.69\00:46:50.82 I have been overwhelmed by the evidence 00:46:50.85\00:46:54.03 that this is the word of God. 00:46:54.06\00:46:55.94 When I went up to Hazor, I opened my Bible 00:46:55.97\00:47:01.92 and I turned to the text were it actually says 00:47:01.95\00:47:06.26 that the children of Israel destroyed Hazor with fire. 00:47:06.29\00:47:12.80 We have discovered the city, it's there, it's there. 00:47:12.83\00:47:18.27 You can believe the Bible, it's there. 00:47:18.30\00:47:21.52 We have discovered the evidence of the fire. 00:47:21.55\00:47:29.52 Vasily, the general in charge of the KGB said to me" 00:47:29.55\00:47:35.62 we are overwhelmed.'' 00:47:35.65\00:47:38.19 I said to the leader of the KGB, I am going to ask you tonight, 00:47:38.22\00:47:42.07 all of you and all of these officers there, 00:47:42.10\00:47:45.03 they asked me to speak to them on two different occasions. 00:47:45.06\00:47:50.59 I said to them on the basis of this evidence 00:47:50.62\00:47:53.67 I am going to ask you to stand up tonight 00:47:53.70\00:47:56.00 and say that you're going to leave your atheism behind, 00:47:56.03\00:48:00.21 that religion of death, that religion of hopelessness, 00:48:00.24\00:48:05.16 that religion of despair. 00:48:05.19\00:48:07.35 I am going to ask you to leave it all behind 00:48:07.38\00:48:09.35 and put your faith in the God who inspired the Bible. 00:48:09.38\00:48:13.56 Yup, General Vladimir stood up clicked his heels, 00:48:13.59\00:48:19.43 his colonel stood up, all of his officers stood up 00:48:19.46\00:48:25.25 and then I said to them, 00:48:25.28\00:48:26.65 I am going to ask you to come down in the front 00:48:26.68\00:48:29.46 and to give your lives to God. 00:48:29.49\00:48:31.10 They came down, all of them. 00:48:31.13\00:48:34.23 I want you to know you can believe in Christ. 00:48:34.26\00:48:40.01 Listen, my friend. 00:48:40.04\00:48:43.09 Here it is, I'm gonna open up my heart to you, here it comes. 00:48:43.12\00:48:46.77 I am a plain man, with a plain utterance, 00:48:46.80\00:48:49.76 with a message hot from the heart of God. 00:48:49.79\00:48:55.07 The Bible gave prophecies about the land of the Egyptians. 00:48:55.10\00:48:58.92 Don't have time tonight to go into them. 00:48:58.95\00:49:02.31 Alexander the Great became one of the great, great pharaohs. 00:49:02.34\00:49:07.36 Prophecy in the Bible about Alexander. 00:49:07.39\00:49:10.96 There's a prophecy about the great city of Memphis. 00:49:10.99\00:49:13.62 Every word of the prophecy came to pass. 00:49:13.65\00:49:16.87 I want to tell you something. 00:49:16.90\00:49:18.27 There are prophecies in the Bible about you and me 00:49:18.30\00:49:22.01 and our day, and our age. 00:49:22.04\00:49:24.65 And from night to night 00:49:24.68\00:49:26.65 we're going to see amazing discoveries 00:49:26.68\00:49:29.92 that give us reason to hope and to believe 00:49:29.95\00:49:33.43 and to know that God is alive 00:49:33.46\00:49:35.56 and He cares for people and He loves you.
