Who am I? 00:03:14.19\00:03:19.36 Where did I come from? 00:03:19.36\00:03:22.30 Am I a planetary accident 00:03:22.30\00:03:27.10 or am I a child of God? 00:03:27.10\00:03:30.57 Why I am here? Where am I going? 00:03:30.57\00:03:34.44 I am told today by cynics and atheists 00:03:34.44\00:03:38.65 that man is the product of time, 00:03:38.65\00:03:42.65 remember this, time plus matter plus chance. 00:03:42.65\00:03:48.59 And so we simply came on the planet by accident 00:03:48.59\00:03:52.26 and that means we're going exit by accident. 00:03:52.26\00:03:55.10 I am not buying it. 00:03:55.10\00:03:57.23 The purpose of these lectures 00:03:57.23\00:03:59.43 is to answer the big questions of life, listen to me. 00:03:59.43\00:04:07.34 We've had incredible difficulties 00:04:07.34\00:04:10.68 getting these programs going this week. 00:04:10.68\00:04:14.78 My team worked their hearts out 00:04:14.78\00:04:17.55 with their brothers and sisters from PNG to get it ready. 00:04:17.55\00:04:24.29 But we did it because we believe God wanted us to come here. 00:04:24.29\00:04:29.00 And tonight, when we turned on he giant projectors, 00:04:29.00\00:04:32.87 they came thousands of miles from Los Angeles, 00:04:32.87\00:04:38.01 they wouldn't work. 00:04:38.01\00:04:40.78 And just a little while ago we were asking the question, 00:04:40.78\00:04:44.18 what we gonna do because it doesn't appear 00:04:44.18\00:04:47.52 that the projectors are going to work. 00:04:47.52\00:04:49.55 We got four projectors right now, glory be to God, 00:04:49.55\00:04:54.09 we got two of those projectors working. 00:04:54.09\00:04:56.83 Now tomorrow night by the grace of God 00:04:56.83\00:04:59.06 we'll have the four of them working 00:04:59.06\00:05:00.73 and double the power on the screens. 00:05:00.73\00:05:04.50 But I want to tell you folks something, 00:05:04.50\00:05:07.00 you're going to come to these programs 00:05:07.00\00:05:10.37 and the crowds are going to grow. 00:05:10.37\00:05:13.38 They are going to get bigger and bigger 00:05:13.38\00:05:16.75 and you're going to find it hard to get a place to sit. 00:05:16.75\00:05:22.08 You're going to find it hard to get a place to stand 00:05:22.08\00:05:26.02 because we're going to deal 00:05:26.02\00:05:28.39 with the great facts of Bible prophecy 00:05:28.39\00:05:32.53 and the facts of science. 00:05:32.53\00:05:34.86 And tonight, I am going to take you 00:05:34.86\00:05:38.20 my beloved friends, I am going to take you 00:05:38.20\00:05:42.87 on the incredible journey of a lifetime. 00:05:42.87\00:05:47.81 I am going to take you. 00:05:47.81\00:05:49.21 We're going to put it up on the screen now. 00:05:49.21\00:05:50.81 I am going to take you to the land of Egypt. 00:05:50.81\00:05:54.85 Egypt, did you know 00:05:54.85\00:05:59.02 that the Bible was born in the land of Egypt? 00:05:59.02\00:06:05.63 Did you know that? 00:06:05.63\00:06:07.10 That's where the Bible came from. 00:06:07.10\00:06:08.63 That's where it was born. 00:06:08.63\00:06:11.53 The Bible, the first five books of the Bible 00:06:11.53\00:06:13.87 were written by a mighty Egyptian prince. 00:06:13.87\00:06:19.81 Egypt is the longest, lasting civilization 00:06:19.81\00:06:22.28 in the history of the world. 00:06:22.28\00:06:24.51 Australia was discovered in 1770. 00:06:24.51\00:06:28.98 United States, 1492. 00:06:28.98\00:06:32.72 1776, the Americans fought the war of independence 00:06:32.72\00:06:37.13 with Great Britain and they won. 00:06:37.13\00:06:43.37 These are modern countries. 00:06:43.37\00:06:45.87 But Egypt goes back at least to 3,000 B.C. 00:06:45.87\00:06:53.88 The red land of Egypt was born 00:06:53.88\00:06:57.91 on the banks of the River Nile. 00:06:57.91\00:07:02.52 I just got to come over here at the black boards 00:07:02.52\00:07:04.65 and I am going to put up a little map 00:07:04.65\00:07:07.66 of the land of Egypt, 00:07:07.66\00:07:09.29 so that you will know tonight where we are going. 00:07:09.29\00:07:13.80 This is the Medaterrian Sea. 00:07:13.80\00:07:15.93 Down here we have the delta 00:07:15.93\00:07:19.17 and the land of Egypt is about a 1,000 kilometers 00:07:19.17\00:07:23.54 from north to south. 00:07:23.54\00:07:26.98 There you have outside of Cairo, the great pyramids of Giza 00:07:26.98\00:07:33.78 and you come further down the river, 00:07:33.78\00:07:36.72 in fact you go up the river and you come to Karnak, 00:07:36.72\00:07:43.99 which is the greatest temple complex in the world. 00:07:43.99\00:07:49.36 Tonight, even though we've only got two projectors working, 00:07:49.36\00:07:53.64 we are not concerned at all because we're going to show you 00:07:53.64\00:07:57.94 some tremendous pictures 00:07:57.94\00:08:00.38 that you're not going to see anywhere else 00:08:00.38\00:08:03.58 and more than show you pictures, 00:08:03.58\00:08:06.05 we're going to give you evidence of the living God. 00:08:06.05\00:08:13.19 Rather to say it, Egypt is the gift of the Nile 00:08:13.19\00:08:19.93 and the Nile is the gift of the Gods. 00:08:19.93\00:08:23.26 Therefore they believed they were the children of God. 00:08:23.26\00:08:26.63 The pharaohs were worshiped as God kings. 00:08:26.63\00:08:31.47 The wealth of the ancient Egyptians, Vegas description. 00:08:31.47\00:08:37.78 Pharaoh Osorkon 00:08:37.78\00:08:40.82 gifted 383 tons of gold and silver to the temple 00:08:40.82\00:08:48.36 during four years, worth billions of dollars. 00:08:48.36\00:08:53.70 The Bible spoke about the wealth of Egypt. 00:08:53.70\00:08:58.93 When I saw many, many years ago-- 00:08:58.93\00:09:01.24 I've been to Egypt many, many, many times, 00:09:01.24\00:09:03.74 but when I saw the buildings I was dazed and amazed. 00:09:03.74\00:09:11.15 My heart was strangely moved 00:09:11.15\00:09:14.05 when I went into the Valley of the Kings, 00:09:14.05\00:09:17.02 and I saw there the tomb of King Tutankhamun. 00:09:17.02\00:09:22.89 The Bible was born in this culture. 00:09:22.89\00:09:26.09 It was not born in an unsophisticated culture. 00:09:26.09\00:09:30.37 This book that I hold in my hands is the only book 00:09:30.37\00:09:36.07 that tells us where we came from and why we are here 00:09:36.07\00:09:42.24 and where we are going. 00:09:42.24\00:09:46.21 And if it is true then we have hope. 00:09:46.21\00:09:51.65 The Egyptians were great writers. 00:09:51.65\00:09:53.52 They wrote on almost everything. 00:09:53.52\00:09:57.26 Their writing made up of strange pictures 00:09:57.26\00:10:00.93 is called the hieroglyph or the hieroglyphics. 00:10:00.93\00:10:06.80 Nobody could understand 00:10:06.80\00:10:09.27 the meaning of the strange letters 00:10:09.27\00:10:13.27 for hundreds even thousands of years. 00:10:13.27\00:10:16.85 Then Napoleon Bonaparte marched down into the land of Egypt 00:10:16.85\00:10:21.85 ands he took with him a group of scholars 00:10:21.85\00:10:25.49 as well as a great army of solders. 00:10:25.49\00:10:28.79 And when his scholars were digging 00:10:28.79\00:10:30.83 outside the little village of Rosetta in the delta 00:10:30.83\00:10:37.20 they discovered what is called today 00:10:37.20\00:10:40.10 the Rosetta stone, there it is. 00:10:40.10\00:10:45.04 It is a trilingual inscription, Hyreoglyphic, Demotic, 00:10:45.04\00:10:51.71 two types of ancient Egyptian and also Greece. 00:10:51.71\00:10:56.85 Now, Greece was easily understood. 00:10:56.85\00:10:59.82 A young Englishman by the name of Young 00:10:59.82\00:11:04.49 worked on this amazing stone tablet for many years. 00:11:04.49\00:11:11.93 And he made some advancement 00:11:11.93\00:11:14.44 but he could not break this secret code. 00:11:14.44\00:11:17.57 That was left to a young Frenchman by the name 00:11:17.57\00:11:20.68 of Jean-Francois Champollion, there he is. 00:11:20.68\00:11:28.32 At least there's a picture of him. 00:11:28.32\00:11:31.45 And after working on this for a number of years 00:11:31.45\00:11:35.22 he announced to the scholarly world 00:11:35.22\00:11:39.19 that the ancient code had been broken. 00:11:39.19\00:11:44.27 And Egypt started to tell her secrets. 00:11:44.27\00:11:49.97 Now tonight with God's help, 00:11:49.97\00:11:53.81 I am going to tell you some of the secrets 00:11:53.81\00:11:56.34 of the ancient Egyptians that tell us where we came from, 00:11:56.34\00:12:00.55 why we are here and where we are going. 00:12:00.55\00:12:04.85 Let me talk now. 00:12:04.85\00:12:06.25 I got more material than I can deal with tonight. 00:12:06.25\00:12:09.79 The program tomorrow night is even more fascinating, 00:12:09.79\00:12:13.73 but let me tell you about the great discovery. 00:12:13.73\00:12:21.57 Over there in the Cairo museum when I was there last 00:12:23.44\00:12:27.11 was a great scholar by the name of Dr. Hawass. 00:12:27.11\00:12:32.48 Dr. Hawass allowed us to have 00:12:32.48\00:12:36.89 sole use of the Cairo museum for an evening. 00:12:36.89\00:12:42.22 I spent that evening with the queen. 00:12:42.22\00:12:47.66 What am I talking about? 00:12:47.66\00:12:52.10 Many years ago, more than 3, 000 years ago 00:12:52.10\00:12:57.04 there was a beautiful girl and she became the pharaoh. 00:12:57.04\00:13:03.18 It was not allowed that a woman should become the pharaoh 00:13:03.18\00:13:07.62 but she became the pharaoh. 00:13:07.62\00:13:10.49 But in Russia and another places I told the people, 00:13:12.89\00:13:18.73 our Queen Hatshepsut had been lost, 00:13:18.73\00:13:23.23 her mummy was lost, most likely destroyed. 00:13:23.23\00:13:29.27 Then Dr. Hawass discovered an old, old female mummy. 00:13:29.27\00:13:37.11 And he also discovered a little box. 00:13:39.81\00:13:44.42 And in the box there was a tooth. 00:13:44.42\00:13:48.42 A tooth in the box. 00:13:48.42\00:13:52.89 And on the box was written 00:13:52.89\00:13:54.76 in the coptos the name Hatshepsut 00:13:54.76\00:14:00.70 because now we are talking about Queen, 00:14:00.70\00:14:03.20 Pharaoh Hatshepsut who became the greatest ruler of her time. 00:14:03.20\00:14:10.48 Some would say the most powerful woman 00:14:10.48\00:14:14.85 in the history of the ancient world. 00:14:14.85\00:14:18.89 When he looked at this mummy he discovered, 00:14:18.89\00:14:23.39 as you can see on the screen 00:14:23.39\00:14:26.70 that there was a tooth missing in the upper jaw 00:14:26.70\00:14:34.37 and they wondered whose jaw is this. 00:14:34.37\00:14:38.91 And then they got the tooth out of the box from Queen Hatshepsut 00:14:38.91\00:14:45.35 and they pushed it up into the jaw 00:14:45.35\00:14:49.55 and it was a perfect fit. 00:14:49.55\00:14:55.32 We had discovered after so long 00:14:55.32\00:15:02.23 the body of the bearded queen. 00:15:02.23\00:15:07.57 Why she called the bearded queen? 00:15:07.57\00:15:09.30 Because the beard is the symbol of the pharaoh. 00:15:09.30\00:15:14.78 And so in her inscriptions she's shown as a female 00:15:14.78\00:15:19.91 but she's shown as a king. 00:15:19.91\00:15:25.69 She's shown as a male with the beard of the high priest. 00:15:25.69\00:15:31.79 Now you say, "So what? 00:15:33.96\00:15:37.80 Why you telling us this? What is so significant?" 00:15:37.80\00:15:42.54 you say to me, "You actually saw 00:15:42.54\00:15:45.27 the mummy of the Queen Hatshepsut?" Absolutely. 00:15:45.27\00:15:48.81 I gazed at her shrunken form. 00:15:49.94\00:15:53.92 Dr. Hawass, the greatest Egyptologist in the world 00:15:55.42\00:16:00.06 standing there with my friend Dr. Randall Younker 00:16:00.06\00:16:02.39 from Andrews University. 00:16:02.39\00:16:04.33 Have a look friend, gazed upon the body 00:16:04.33\00:16:10.83 of the great lady pharaoh 00:16:10.83\00:16:14.20 and wonder who was she? 00:16:14.20\00:16:21.84 Dr. Hawass said she was powerful, 00:16:21.84\00:16:28.02 she was mighty, her enemies trembled before her. 00:16:28.02\00:16:35.29 Who was she?

Listen to me. 00:30:12.81\00:30:17.51 The Bible tells me that the children of Israel 00:30:17.51\00:30:21.05 lead by Moses left the land of Egypt. 00:30:21.05\00:30:24.82 You know the story, it's called the Exodus. 00:30:24.82\00:30:29.06 The Bible tells us that the Egyptians came at 00:30:29.06\00:30:32.83 after the children of Israel and try to destroy them. 00:30:32.83\00:30:38.30 But the Bible says the children of Israel 00:30:38.30\00:30:41.04 went through, they ran over the Red Sea. 00:30:41.04\00:30:45.24 And the waves came rolling down upon the Egyptians 00:30:45.24\00:30:49.44 and they were drowned. 00:30:49.44\00:30:53.38 And one of the most amazing experiences 00:30:53.38\00:30:56.05 I've ever had was to go into the tomb of Thutmose III, 00:30:56.05\00:31:02.39 the pharaoh who said to Moses, "I will not let the people go." 00:31:02.39\00:31:07.86 I am going to take you into that tomb. 00:31:07.86\00:31:10.20 This tomb is only recently been opened. 00:31:10.20\00:31:13.67 You're seeing pictures that very few people have seen. 00:31:13.67\00:31:17.44 This is the tomb of the man who died in 1450 B.C. saying, 00:31:17.44\00:31:25.45 "I do not know God and I won't obey Him." 00:31:25.45\00:31:29.32 I've shown you his picture, there is his coffin. 00:31:29.32\00:31:34.16 I am with my friend from Andrews University, 00:31:34.16\00:31:37.53 Dr. Randy Younker and we're looking at the tomb. 00:31:37.53\00:31:43.00 Now one of the amazing things 00:31:43.00\00:31:45.27 Dr. Younker pointed out to me was this, 00:31:45.27\00:31:48.77 that the tomb was put together very quickly. 00:31:48.77\00:31:53.17 It's not even finished. 00:31:53.17\00:31:55.91 And he said to me, 00:31:55.91\00:31:58.78 "they were in a big hurry to bury this man." 00:31:58.78\00:32:02.32 They didn't expect him to die. 00:32:02.32\00:32:06.99 And he didn't expect to die himself. 00:32:06.99\00:32:11.19 But the Bible tells me that this pharaoh, Thutmose III 00:32:11.19\00:32:18.23 who fought God died in the waters of the Red Sea 00:32:18.23\00:32:24.54 and he's buried, we believe in that tomb. 00:32:24.54\00:32:30.78 So what does it mean? 00:32:30.78\00:32:32.75 You know, I've got so much I can show you, 00:32:32.75\00:32:34.65 but what does this mean? 00:32:34.65\00:32:36.22 I will tell you what it means. 00:32:36.22\00:32:38.65 It means this, that the Bible is historically accurate. 00:32:38.65\00:32:44.69 The Bible is not a mass of fables. 00:32:44.69\00:32:48.00 It's not a bunch of fairy stories. 00:32:48.00\00:32:50.67 The Bible is true. Now listen. 00:32:50.67\00:32:54.64 If the Bible is true, you ought to be very glad. 00:32:54.64\00:32:59.54 And I'll tell you why you ought to be glad, 00:32:59.54\00:33:02.01 because the Bible tells you where you came from 00:33:02.01\00:33:06.48 and the Bible tells you why you are here 00:33:06.48\00:33:09.78 and the Bible tells you where you are going. 00:33:09.78\00:33:13.12 Isn't that amazing? 00:33:13.12\00:33:15.09 The Bible tells you, 00:33:15.09\00:33:16.59 tells me that you and I are not a bit of slime. 00:33:16.59\00:33:22.00 We're not just a mass of atoms and molecules. 00:33:22.00\00:33:26.07 The Bible tells us that we came from the hand of God 00:33:26.07\00:33:30.47 and every person is important. 00:33:30.47\00:33:33.34 There's nobody who is not important. 00:33:33.34\00:33:35.98 Every person is important 00:33:35.98\00:33:37.65 because every person is a child of God. 00:33:37.65\00:33:42.98 When you walk out of this meeting tonight 00:33:42.98\00:33:44.89 you can say-- maybe some of you will say, 00:33:44.89\00:33:47.36 "But you know I am not very wealthy." 00:33:47.36\00:33:49.49 That doesn't matter a great deal. 00:33:49.49\00:33:52.06 You are wealthy if you know that you came from the hand of God 00:33:52.06\00:33:56.26 and one day you're going to be with Christ 00:33:56.26\00:33:58.67 in paradise, you see. 00:33:58.67\00:34:02.04 So the Bible tells me where I came from. 00:34:02.04\00:34:06.21 It tells me why I am here 00:34:06.21\00:34:09.61 and it tells me where I am going. 00:34:09.61\00:34:13.21 And that is why I love biblical archeology. 00:34:13.21\00:34:19.25 Well, who were these ancient Egyptians? 00:34:19.25\00:34:22.52 For a few moments look at their accomplishments. 00:34:22.52\00:34:26.86 They were the builders of the pyramid, houses of deaths. 00:34:26.86\00:34:32.10 They were obsessed with deaths. 00:34:32.10\00:34:36.84 If you don't know God, you ought to be. 00:34:36.84\00:34:40.41 They were obsessed with death, 00:34:40.41\00:34:42.68 therefore they built the pyramids as tombs. 00:34:42.68\00:34:47.58 They dug into the sides of the mountains 00:34:47.58\00:34:50.02 and they buried their pharaohs 00:34:50.02\00:34:52.82 believing that this was the way to ensure their afterlife. 00:34:52.82\00:34:59.03 Now the great pyramid was build by Khufu 00:34:59.03\00:35:02.73 or he's call Cheops by the Greece. 00:35:02.73\00:35:06.27 Build, well, almost 5000 years ago 00:35:06.27\00:35:09.37 now, 2650 B.C. about a 150 meter high, 00:35:09.37\00:35:15.01 480 feet high, 775 feet on each side, 00:35:15.01\00:35:19.48 made up of two and half million giant blocks of lime stone 00:35:19.48\00:35:24.12 laid out perfectly north, south, east and west. 00:35:24.12\00:35:30.76 Why was it built? 00:35:30.76\00:35:33.13 It was built as the cosmic mountain, 00:35:33.13\00:35:37.17 the home of the Gods. 00:35:37.17\00:35:39.97 Now listen to me. 00:35:39.97\00:35:43.74 The Egyptians worshiped many gods 00:35:43.74\00:35:46.91 and they worshiped their ancestors. 00:35:46.91\00:35:50.38 They worshiped the spirits of the dead 00:35:50.38\00:35:54.98 and that religion is aptly oppose 00:35:54.98\00:35:57.19 to the religion of God and the religion of the Bible. 00:35:57.19\00:36:02.42 They believed in powerful spirit forces. 00:36:02.42\00:36:08.13 They believed that it was important 00:36:08.13\00:36:10.10 to preserve the body for afterlife 00:36:10.10\00:36:12.73 and that is why they practice mummification. 00:36:12.73\00:36:18.24 They built these great houses of death 00:36:18.24\00:36:21.38 because of their quest for immortality. 00:36:21.38\00:36:26.28 That's why they built the Karnak temple. 00:36:26.28\00:36:30.52 I've been to the Karnak temple more times than I can remember. 00:36:30.52\00:36:34.59 It is the largest religious complex ever built 00:36:34.59\00:36:38.06 in the history of the world. 00:36:38.06\00:36:39.46 It is more than a mile square. 00:36:39.46\00:36:43.37 I've been inside the temple of Amun Ra, 00:36:47.00\00:36:51.47 it cover 61 acres, just the temple. 00:36:51.47\00:36:55.01 About 30 or 26 something hectors. 00:36:55.01\00:36:59.85 Then I've gone to the Great Hypostyle Hall 00:36:59.85\00:37:02.78 that was built by Seti and Ramesses the great. 00:37:02.78\00:37:09.22 Only a small part of it is standing today. 00:37:09.22\00:37:12.79 It is composed of 58,000 square feet 00:37:12.79\00:37:16.90 of massive pile ons. 00:37:16.90\00:37:19.33 Some of the columns are 75 feet high 00:37:19.33\00:37:22.57 and 32 feet in circumference. 00:37:22.57\00:37:26.74 And it's an amazing thing, 00:37:26.74\00:37:29.11 I don't know we got the pictures here tonight 00:37:29.11\00:37:30.91 because we don't have all our projectors 00:37:30.91\00:37:33.45 but you can look up 70 feet 00:37:33.45\00:37:35.85 on the tops of those mighty columns-- 00:37:35.85\00:37:38.49 there, look, bless your heart. 00:37:38.49\00:37:40.32 You can actually see some of the paint 00:37:40.32\00:37:43.59 on the top after 3000 plus years. 00:37:43.59\00:37:50.23 These were the people who gave us Moses. 00:37:50.23\00:37:57.27 Moses, the mighty Egyptian prince. 00:37:57.27\00:38:00.58 The prince of Egypt who gave us the Bible. 00:38:00.58\00:38:04.78 The Bible that tells us where we came from, 00:38:04.78\00:38:07.32 why we are here, where we are going. 00:38:07.32\00:38:10.65 The Bible that gave us this story 00:38:10.65\00:38:12.72 of the children of Israel and the great pharaoh 00:38:12.72\00:38:16.93 who said, "No, no, no, no." 00:38:16.93\00:38:20.36 And today, we can gaze upon these great buildings 00:38:20.36\00:38:24.63 in their sublime majesty 00:38:24.63\00:38:28.10 and our minds go back to the days 00:38:28.10\00:38:31.47 when Moses lived in Egypt. 00:38:31.47\00:38:35.74 The power and the glory. 00:38:35.74\00:38:39.61 And then there are the treasures of ancient Egypt. 00:38:39.61\00:38:42.32 Bless your heart, the gold. 00:38:42.32\00:38:44.89 Gold, gold, gold, heaps of this stuff. 00:38:44.89\00:38:52.23 I've gone inside the Cairo museum 00:38:52.23\00:38:54.56 with my television crew with my son David and others. 00:38:54.56\00:38:58.87 And we've looked at the wonders of the ancient Egyptians. 00:38:58.87\00:39:02.10 We've looked at the gold, 00:39:02.10\00:39:03.51 the treasures of the tomb of Tutankhamun. 00:39:03.51\00:39:08.48 We saw tons and tons and tons of gold. 00:39:08.48\00:39:15.28 It's an amazing wonderful story. 00:39:15.28\00:39:18.59 I think I should just show you 00:39:18.59\00:39:21.06 some of the wonders of the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun 00:39:21.06\00:39:26.09 who was a political nobody. 00:39:26.09\00:39:31.37 He was a nobody. 00:39:31.37\00:39:34.87 And enter his tomb went gold bullion--like this great shrine. 00:39:34.87\00:39:41.58 Big enough to hold a motor car covered with gold. 00:39:41.58\00:39:46.95 And there we have the golden death mask 00:39:46.95\00:39:50.49 of the pharaoh himself discovered by Howard Carter, 00:39:50.49\00:39:55.86 the intrepid English archeologist. 00:39:55.86\00:40:00.03 An amazing story. 00:40:00.03\00:40:03.77 When I saw the death mask of Pharaoh Tutankhamun 00:40:03.77\00:40:09.47 and when I gazed in admiration up on the throne, 00:40:09.47\00:40:15.48 my mind went to the Bible and the story of Moses. 00:40:15.48\00:40:21.85 He could have had it all, everybody bit of it. 00:40:21.85\00:40:25.59 He could have lived there in the courts of the pharaohs 00:40:25.59\00:40:30.13 and tonight he would have been in the Cairo museum 00:40:30.13\00:40:34.76 as a shriveled up mummy that looks like a bit of dead fish. 00:40:34.76\00:40:42.04 Now listen I want to tell you folks something. 00:40:42.04\00:40:45.44 You may be saying to me tonight and I said it to the KGB, 00:40:45.44\00:40:48.84 I've said it to the biggest audiences around the world. 00:40:48.84\00:40:54.75 You can see that I believe the Bible, 00:40:54.75\00:40:57.69 to right I believe the Bible. 00:40:57.69\00:41:00.66 I've been to so many places I've been to Egypt and Babylon. 00:41:00.66\00:41:05.13 I've been into the palaces, I've been to the shrines, 00:41:05.13\00:41:09.70 I've been into the tombs and as I've gone to these places, 00:41:09.70\00:41:14.07 I have done something that others have done before me. 00:41:14.07\00:41:17.91 I've taken a copy of the Bible. 00:41:17.91\00:41:23.88 And I've opened up my Bible 00:41:23.88\00:41:26.88 and I have read the stories of the Bible 00:41:26.88\00:41:29.98 and then I've looked at the hieroglyphics 00:41:29.98\00:41:33.62 and I've read it on the walls of the pharaohs as it were. 00:41:33.62\00:41:41.60 An amazing wonderful story. 00:41:41.60\00:41:45.10 I want you to get peace in your life. 00:41:45.10\00:41:47.97 I want you to have happiness in your life. 00:41:47.97\00:41:50.47 I want you to be prosperous and successful 00:41:50.47\00:41:54.08 and I want you to have what the Egyptians didn't have, 00:41:54.08\00:41:58.01 that is everlasting life. 00:41:58.01\00:42:00.28 And you can have it, 00:42:00.28\00:42:01.92 if you believe in the God 00:42:01.92\00:42:04.29 who believes in you, my brother, my sister. 00:42:04.29\00:42:09.79 Now this old book tells me the story 00:42:09.79\00:42:13.09 of how the children of Israel were led by Moses 00:42:13.09\00:42:18.27 from the city of Ramesses. 00:42:18.27\00:42:22.07 I'm gonna show you actually the city of Ramesses, 00:42:22.07\00:42:26.74 and my team up there are working 00:42:26.74\00:42:28.44 under great pressure tonight in, with tremendous difficulties 00:42:28.44\00:42:32.48 because the computers were not working and so forth, 00:42:32.48\00:42:36.58 but they're gonna get you to the city, 00:42:36.58\00:42:38.79 I believe of Ramesses which is in the delta. 00:42:38.79\00:42:44.06 Now this is the city of Tanis or portion of the city of Tanis 00:42:44.06\00:42:48.96 and we may have some pictures of Tanis, 00:42:48.96\00:42:51.13 I think that they're going to find. 00:42:51.13\00:42:54.04 But Tanis was not the city of Ramesses. 00:42:54.04\00:42:57.21 What happened was 00:42:57.21\00:42:58.61 that when Ramesses was overthrown Pi-Ramesses, 00:42:58.61\00:43:02.11 they cut it all the monuments up here to the north 00:43:02.11\00:43:05.05 and they built a new city, the city of Tanis. 00:43:05.05\00:43:09.72 But that was not the city of the Bible 00:43:09.72\00:43:13.56 and for many, many years 00:43:13.56\00:43:14.96 the archeologists didn't understand this. 00:43:14.96\00:43:17.89 But I visited the city of Tanis 00:43:17.89\00:43:20.26 and then I came down to the city of Ramesses. 00:43:20.26\00:43:25.77 And that was the city we're gonna find that soon, 00:43:25.77\00:43:29.17 I believe the city of Ramesses which is called Tell el-Dab'a. 00:43:29.17\00:43:35.31 When I went there I was quite amazed, 00:43:35.31\00:43:38.68 because I was disappointed 00:43:38.68\00:43:42.45 when I went there at Tell el-Dab'a, 00:43:42.45\00:43:45.19 which is south, there it is, this is Tell el-Dab'a. 00:43:45.19\00:43:48.26 These men are doing great under great difficulty tonight, 00:43:48.26\00:43:52.09 but there is the city all-- all that is best of Pi-Ramesses. 00:43:52.09\00:43:57.47 You're looking at what 00:43:57.47\00:43:59.23 once was perhaps the greatest city of the ancient world. 00:43:59.23\00:44:04.97 A huge, huge city. 00:44:04.97\00:44:07.68 And the Bible says, 00:44:07.68\00:44:09.78 that Moses led the children of Israel out of the Egypt 00:44:09.78\00:44:15.12 and this was once a magnificent place. 00:44:15.12\00:44:19.55 And they left there, and the Bible says, 00:44:19.55\00:44:22.36 they went through right over the Red Sea. 00:44:22.36\00:44:25.66 And I prepared a time, 00:44:25.66\00:44:27.10 they came up here in the north of Israel. 00:44:27.10\00:44:30.43 They came to a city by the name of Hazor. 00:44:30.43\00:44:36.40 Moses had gone home to glory. 00:44:36.40\00:44:39.64 Would you like to go home to glory too? 00:44:39.64\00:44:42.14 Well, Moses had gone home to glory. 00:44:42.14\00:44:46.05 And up here in Hazor, 00:44:46.05\00:44:49.05 the Bible tells me a young Hebrew 00:44:49.05\00:44:51.72 by the name of Joshua, 00:44:51.72\00:44:55.79 led the armies of Israelites against the city. 00:44:55.79\00:45:00.26 And the Bible says that they destroyed Hazor with fire. 00:45:00.26\00:45:08.24 And of course, the skeptics said of course that's not true. 00:45:08.24\00:45:13.07 Over here, yes that's Tell el-Dab'a 00:45:13.07\00:45:16.68 but I want us to get up now up in the north of Israel 00:45:16.68\00:45:21.12 and come up to Hazor, because, there it is. 00:45:21.12\00:45:26.12 Uh-huh, I thought we lost it. 00:45:26.12\00:45:29.89 Have a good look at that, 00:45:29.89\00:45:31.29 you say, well, it's not like the pharaohs, 00:45:31.29\00:45:32.79 it's not like the wealth, not like the gold, 00:45:32.79\00:45:35.00 not like the pyramids you've shown us tonight. 00:45:35.00\00:45:37.40 Not like Queen Hatshepsut, Thutmose III. 00:45:37.40\00:45:41.94 You see that. 00:45:41.94\00:45:43.91 That's the fire that is mentioned in the Bible. 00:45:43.91\00:45:47.88 The Bible says when they came up out of the land of Egypt, 00:45:47.88\00:45:51.91 they burnt the city of Hazor. 00:45:51.91\00:45:55.38 And there I am actually pointing to the ash 00:45:55.38\00:46:00.06 that was formed by the fire 00:46:00.06\00:46:03.26 that destroyed the city that is mentioned in the Bible. 00:46:03.26\00:46:08.66 Bless your heart. 00:46:08.66\00:46:10.90 As I walked around Egypt, 00:46:10.90\00:46:16.07 as I have filmed in the Cairo museum, 00:46:16.07\00:46:21.64 as I have gone into the tombs of the pharaohs, 00:46:21.64\00:46:28.52 as I have gazed upon the bodies of the pharaohs 00:46:28.52\00:46:34.19 who are actually mentioned in the Bible, 00:46:34.19\00:46:37.99 I heard myself saying, "The Bible is right." 00:46:37.99\00:46:42.36 It is right, the skeptics are wrong, the Bible is right. 00:46:42.36\00:46:48.64 As I have traveled around Egypt, 00:46:48.64\00:46:50.81 I have been overwhelmed by the evidence 00:46:50.81\00:46:54.01 that this is the word of God. 00:46:54.01\00:46:55.94 When I went up to Hazor, I opened my Bible 00:46:55.94\00:47:01.92 and I turned to the text were it actually says 00:47:01.92\00:47:06.25 that the children of Israel destroyed Hazor with fire. 00:47:06.25\00:47:12.79 We have discovered the city, it's there, it's there. 00:47:12.79\00:47:18.27 You can believe the Bible, it's there. 00:47:18.27\00:47:21.50 We have discovered the evidence of the fire. 00:47:21.50\00:47:29.51 Vasily, the general in charge of the KGB said to me" 00:47:29.51\00:47:35.62 we are overwhelmed.'' 00:47:35.62\00:47:38.19 I said to the leader of the KGB, I am going to ask you tonight, 00:47:38.19\00:47:42.09 all of you and all of these officers there, 00:47:42.09\00:47:45.03 they asked me to speak to them on two different occasions. 00:47:45.03\00:47:50.57 I said to them on the basis of this evidence 00:47:50.57\00:47:53.67 I am going to ask you to stand up tonight 00:47:53.67\00:47:55.97 and say that you're going to leave your atheism behind, 00:47:55.97\00:48:00.21 that religion of death, that religion of hopelessness, 00:48:00.21\00:48:05.15 that religion of despair. 00:48:05.15\00:48:07.35 I am going to ask you to leave it all behind 00:48:07.35\00:48:09.35 and put your faith in the God who inspired the Bible. 00:48:09.35\00:48:13.56 Yup, General Vladimir stood up clicked his heels, 00:48:13.56\00:48:19.43 his colonel stood up, all of his officers stood up 00:48:19.43\00:48:25.23 and then I said to them, 00:48:25.23\00:48:26.63 I am going to ask you to come down in the front 00:48:26.63\00:48:29.44 and to give your lives to God. 00:48:29.44\00:48:31.07 They came down, all of them. 00:48:31.07\00:48:34.21 I want you to know you can believe in Christ. 00:48:34.21\00:48:40.02 Listen, my friend. 00:48:40.02\00:48:43.08 Here it is, I'm gonna open up my heart to you, here it comes. 00:48:43.08\00:48:46.79 I am a plain man, with a plain utterance, 00:48:46.79\00:48:49.76 with a message hot from the heart of God. 00:48:49.76\00:48:55.06 The Bible gave prophecies about the land of the Egyptians. 00:48:55.06\00:48:58.90 Don't have time tonight to go into them. 00:48:58.90\00:49:02.30 Alexander the Great became one of the great, great pharaohs. 00:49:02.30\00:49:07.34 Prophecy in the Bible about Alexander. 00:49:07.34\00:49:10.95

are prophecies in the Bible about you and me 00:49:18.29\00:49:22.02 and our day, and our age. 00:49:22.02\00:49:24.66 And from night to night 00:49:24.66\00:49:26.66 we're going to see amazing discoveries 00:49:26.66\00:49:29.90 that give us reason to hope and to believe 00:49:29.90\00:49:33.40 and to know that God is alive 00:49:33.40\00:49:35.54 and He cares for people and He loves you.
