And this man went. 00:08:22.52\00:08:27.13 Pastor Wilkinson worked for the gang members. 00:08:27.16\00:08:31.11 Then the gang members started to come to some of his meetings 00:08:31.14\00:08:35.19 and one night Pastor Wilkinson 00:08:35.22\00:08:37.11 went to a man whose name was Nikki. 00:08:37.14\00:08:39.71 He was a murderer. He was a cold-blooded sinner. 00:08:39.74\00:08:44.18 And Pastor Wilkinson put his arm around him and he said, 00:08:44.21\00:08:47.81 "Nikki, I want you to know, I love you, and God loves you." 00:08:47.84\00:08:54.52 Nikki took out a knife 00:08:54.55\00:08:57.19 and he put it in the pastor's face 00:08:57.22\00:08:59.22 and he said, "I'm going to cut you in a million pieces." 00:08:59.25\00:09:04.20 You see this poor young man 00:09:04.23\00:09:07.23 who was a gang leader was so much on drugs, 00:09:07.26\00:09:10.97 he could not understand how anybody could love him. 00:09:11.00\00:09:14.75 And he said to the pastor, 00:09:14.78\00:09:16.42 "I'm going to cut you in a million pieces." 00:09:16.45\00:09:19.35 And Pastor Wilkinson said to Nikki, 00:09:19.38\00:09:22.45 "You can cut me in a million pieces 00:09:22.48\00:09:26.14 and every one of those pieces is going to say, 'I love you.'" 00:09:26.17\00:09:31.29 When Jesus went to the cross and when His blood dropped down 00:09:32.71\00:09:37.09 from the cross on the ground, 00:09:37.12\00:09:39.46 as the people mocked him and jeered 00:09:39.49\00:09:42.65 and cursed at his holy name, 00:09:42.68\00:09:45.59 every drop of blood that fell to the ground said, 00:09:45.62\00:09:50.17 "I love you, I love you, I love you." 00:09:50.20\00:09:55.84 And I want you to know tonight 00:09:55.87\00:09:57.24 that the greatest truth in the Bible 00:09:57.27\00:09:59.41 is not the truth about the Antichrist. 00:09:59.44\00:10:01.88 It's a truth about the love of God. 00:10:01.91\00:10:06.26 Many people have been brought up to hate God. 00:10:06.29\00:10:10.40 Many people have been brought up to be afraid of God. 00:10:10.43\00:10:14.27 They've been taught about a God who would burn people 00:10:14.30\00:10:17.99 for millions and millions of years 00:10:18.02\00:10:22.43 in an eternally burning hell. 00:10:22.46\00:10:25.28 They look upon God as the torturer in chief, 00:10:28.17\00:10:35.01 that God is not a kind Heavenly Father, 00:10:35.04\00:10:37.66 but He likes to torture people. 00:10:37.69\00:10:40.86 He likes to burn people in the flames. 00:10:40.89\00:10:44.47 I want you to know tonight that the great God that we love 00:10:44.50\00:10:48.56 became a man and died for our sins on the cross. 00:10:48.59\00:10:53.35 Look at this picture of our Lord. 00:10:53.38\00:10:56.67 Remember every drop of blood 00:10:56.70\00:10:59.77 that fell from the wounds in His hands, 00:10:59.80\00:11:03.60 every drop of blood that fell from His sacred brow said, 00:11:03.63\00:11:09.65 "I love you, I love you, I love you." 00:11:09.68\00:11:15.41 Tonight I'm going to show you 00:11:17.55\00:11:18.92 the identification marks of the Antichrist. 00:11:18.95\00:11:22.24 Now I'm going to go through this somewhat softly. 00:11:22.27\00:11:25.56 This meeting will be understood by every person here 00:11:27.16\00:11:32.93 but every person here tonight 00:11:32.96\00:11:34.33 will need to open his heart and concentrate. 00:11:34.36\00:11:40.05 There's something that causes me great, great joy. 00:11:40.08\00:11:44.27 I know that we have thousands and thousands 00:11:44.30\00:11:48.01 and thousands of children here. 00:11:48.04\00:11:50.91 And we have received messages from the children 00:11:50.94\00:11:54.27 that they love the meetings 00:11:54.30\00:11:56.47 and they have such a love for Jesus 00:11:56.50\00:12:00.03 and they love the texts of the Bible 00:12:00.06\00:12:02.48 and they understand what they are hearing. 00:12:02.51\00:12:06.35 So if little children can understand the gospel of Christ 00:12:06.38\00:12:11.31 and the word of God, 00:12:11.34\00:12:12.71 then every person here tonight can understand. 00:12:12.74\00:12:16.80 Here's the first identification mark of the Antichrist, 00:12:16.83\00:12:21.64 the Antichrist the Bible says 00:12:21.67\00:12:24.91 is a sinister counterfeit. 00:12:24.94\00:12:30.72 And all these texts, of course, 00:12:30.75\00:12:32.39 come from The New International Version. 00:12:32.42\00:12:35.21 The first text we're going to look at now, 00:12:35.24\00:12:37.54 the sinister counterfeit 00:12:37.57\00:12:39.38 is 2 Thessalonians 2:3, 4. 00:12:39.41\00:12:46.02 Tonight you're a great class. 00:12:46.05\00:12:49.92 "Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day," 00:12:49.95\00:12:56.36 the coming of Christ, "will not come until the rebellion occurs 00:12:56.39\00:13:01.70 and the man of lawlessness is revealed." 00:13:01.73\00:13:04.42 This is a man who's against the law of God. 00:13:04.45\00:13:07.76 "The man doomed to destruction, He will oppose 00:13:07.79\00:13:13.55 and will exalt himself over everything 00:13:13.58\00:13:16.70 that is called God or is worshiped, 00:13:16.73\00:13:20.24 so that he sets himself up in God's temple, 00:13:20.27\00:13:25.82 proclaiming himself to be God." 00:13:25.85\00:13:29.94 The Bible tells me that the Antichrist 00:13:29.97\00:13:34.11 is a beautiful religious power. 00:13:34.14\00:13:39.42 Oh, you say, I thought the Antichrist was atheism. 00:13:39.45\00:13:43.48 No, my friend, that is evil we know, 00:13:43.51\00:13:47.17 but the Bible says that the Antichrist 00:13:47.20\00:13:51.96 and we're gonna get you to come over here. 00:13:51.99\00:13:54.32 So everybody can see, 00:13:54.35\00:13:55.72 we're gonna get a camera right over here. 00:13:55.75\00:13:57.76 The Antichrist is in, it says, the temple of God. 00:13:57.79\00:14:05.43 He is in the church. 00:14:05.46\00:14:09.98 Oh, my, if you don't understand this, 00:14:11.73\00:14:18.27 the Bible says, you will be deceived. 00:14:18.30\00:14:21.56 I was in Russia a number of years ago. 00:14:21.59\00:14:24.73 When the Russians or some gang members 00:14:24.76\00:14:27.68 were counterfeiting $100 bills 00:14:27.71\00:14:32.78 and so the Russian counterfeiters 00:14:32.81\00:14:34.63 were making $100 bills 00:14:34.66\00:14:38.35 and they looked almost perfect. 00:14:38.38\00:14:41.23 In fact to my untrained eye, they were perfect. 00:14:41.26\00:14:45.71 Now the Antichrist is right there. 00:14:45.74\00:14:47.99 Look over here, the Antichrist you see him there. 00:14:48.02\00:14:52.93 The Bible says he's a wolf in sheep's clothing 00:14:54.97\00:15:00.20 and he hides in the realm of religion. 00:15:00.23\00:15:04.93 He is dressed in the robe of religion, put that in your mind. 00:15:04.96\00:15:11.16 Number two, now you're gonna hear 00:15:11.19\00:15:13.62 something absolutely amazing and wonderful 00:15:13.65\00:15:16.91 and you've got to listen, if you've never listened before, 00:15:16.94\00:15:20.08 the Antichrist rises on the ruins of the Roman Empire. 00:15:20.11\00:15:27.49 Therefore, he is a European power. 00:15:27.52\00:15:31.87 We are going to read Daniel 7:1-8 and 24 00:15:31.90\00:15:38.06 and you can notice, I have a little different style tonight. 00:15:38.09\00:15:40.87 I'm going slowly because I want you to take this in. 00:15:40.90\00:15:45.79 Here we go. Daniel Chapter 7. 00:15:45.82\00:15:49.83 "In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, 00:15:49.86\00:15:53.34 Daniel had a dream, and visions passed 00:15:53.37\00:15:56.63 through his mind as he was lying on his bed. 00:15:56.66\00:16:00.76 He wrote down the substance of his dream." 00:16:00.79\00:16:03.16 And here is a prophet of God, 00:16:03.19\00:16:05.30 and God is giving the prophet a look into the future. 00:16:05.33\00:16:09.55 "Daniel said, 'In my vision at night I looked, 00:16:09.58\00:16:12.00 and there before me were the four winds of heaven 00:16:12.03\00:16:15.39 churning up the great sea. 00:16:15.42\00:16:18.32 Four great beasts, each different from the others, 00:16:18.35\00:16:23.51 came up out of the sea." 00:16:23.54\00:16:25.24 He sees the sea lashed into fury 00:16:25.27\00:16:29.85 and then as he is watching in spellbound fascination, 00:16:29.88\00:16:34.92 he sees four great beasts come up out of the sea. 00:16:34.95\00:16:41.26 "The first was like a lion, and had the wings of an eagle. 00:16:41.29\00:16:48.42 I watched until its wings were torn off. 00:16:48.45\00:16:51.44 It was lifted up from the ground 00:16:51.47\00:16:53.10 so that it stood on two feet like a man. 00:16:53.13\00:16:57.45 And there before me was a second beast, 00:16:57.48\00:17:00.18 which looked like a bear. 00:17:00.21\00:17:02.76 It was raised up on one of its sides, 00:17:02.79\00:17:05.35 and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. 00:17:05.38\00:17:09.68 It was told, get up and eat your fill of flesh. 00:17:09.71\00:17:15.78 After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, 00:17:15.81\00:17:19.00 one that looked like a leopard. 00:17:19.03\00:17:22.03 And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. 00:17:22.06\00:17:27.00 This beast had four heads, 00:17:27.03\00:17:29.15 and it was given authority to rule. 00:17:29.18\00:17:34.58 Then the next verse says, 00:17:34.61\00:17:35.98 after that, in my vision at night I looked, 00:17:36.01\00:17:38.19 and there before me was a fourth beast-terrifying 00:17:38.22\00:17:43.14 and frightening and very powerful. 00:17:43.17\00:17:46.57 It had large iron teeth, 00:17:46.60\00:17:50.51 it crushed and devoured its victims 00:17:50.54\00:17:53.47 and trampled underfoot whatever was left. 00:17:53.50\00:17:56.58 It was different from all the former beasts 00:17:56.61\00:17:59.83 and it had ten horns. 00:17:59.86\00:18:04.47 While I was thinking about the horns, 00:18:04.50\00:18:06.53 there before me was another horn, a little one," 00:18:06.56\00:18:10.50 this is the Antichrist, "which came up among them. 00:18:10.53\00:18:17.86 And three of the first horns were uprooted before it. 00:18:17.89\00:18:21.65 This horn had eyes like the eyes of a man 00:18:21.68\00:18:28.21 and a mouth that spoke boastfully." 00:18:28.24\00:18:31.75 Then the Bible goes on to say in this verse. 00:18:33.46\00:18:37.02 "The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. 00:18:37.05\00:18:41.48 After them another king will arise," 00:18:41.51\00:18:43.94 Antichrist "different from the earlier ones, 00:18:43.97\00:18:47.53 he will subdue three kings." 00:18:47.56\00:18:52.00 Now listen carefully as you've never listened before. 00:18:52.03\00:18:56.50 In Bible prophecy, 00:18:58.10\00:19:02.49 a beast represents 00:19:02.52\00:19:05.83 a kingdom or a nation. 00:19:05.86\00:19:09.17 And the first beast that arises, the lion, 00:19:11.72\00:19:15.51 we're going to put him up again and look at this creature, 00:19:15.54\00:19:18.73 this lion with the wings of a bird, 00:19:18.76\00:19:23.81 this lion is the same as the head of gold. 00:19:23.84\00:19:30.33 Remember the great image of Daniel 2, 00:19:30.36\00:19:34.25 the head of gold was Babylon. 00:19:34.28\00:19:38.38 The head of gold, the kingdom of Nebuchadnezzar 00:19:38.41\00:19:42.82 and the lion is the king of beasts. 00:19:42.85\00:19:47.51 And Babylon ruled the world from 605 - 538 BC. 00:19:47.54\00:19:55.03 You say "Are you making this up?" 00:19:55.06\00:19:57.66 No, my friend, this is history. 00:19:57.69\00:20:02.28 And then after Babylon there came the bear. 00:20:03.37\00:20:08.40 And there is the rapacious bear 00:20:08.43\00:20:12.16 and he corresponds to the chest of silver, 00:20:12.19\00:20:17.08 the bear is none other than look at it Medo-Persia. 00:20:17.11\00:20:22.83 When he came upon the world scene, 00:20:24.75\00:20:27.42 there were three kingdoms who tried to keep him down, 00:20:27.45\00:20:31.25 Babylon, Lydia, and Egypt 00:20:31.28\00:20:34.34 symbolized by the ribs in the mouth of the bear. 00:20:34.37\00:20:39.56 And then after the bear, there came the leopard, 00:20:39.59\00:20:44.72 Babylon, Medo-Persia. 00:20:44.75\00:20:47.45 Now we're down in the thighs a bronze 00:20:47.48\00:20:51.60 and you will remember it's as plain as the nose on your face, 00:20:51.63\00:20:57.80 Babylon, Medo-Persia, and this is Greece. 00:20:57.83\00:21:04.97 You say, this is wonderful. 00:21:05.00\00:21:06.43 Yes, it's history written in advance. 00:21:06.46\00:21:09.68 You notice, he's got four wings on his back to symbolize 00:21:09.71\00:21:14.99 the speed of conquests of Alexander the great. 00:21:15.02\00:21:20.52 And when Alexander was dying, 00:21:20.55\00:21:22.67 his generals crowded around his bed and they said, 00:21:22.70\00:21:26.01 "Who shall have the kingdom?" 00:21:26.04\00:21:28.41 He said, "It shall go to the strongest." 00:21:28.44\00:21:32.79 And the kingdom of Alexander was divided 00:21:32.82\00:21:35.47 up among his four warring generals, 00:21:35.50\00:21:38.74 Cassander, Lysimachus, Seleucus and Ptolemy. 00:21:38.77\00:21:43.87 You say, "You sure?" Absolutely, it's history. 00:21:43.90\00:21:47.25 Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece 00:21:47.28\00:21:50.89 and now we come to the rapacious, dreadful, 00:21:50.92\00:21:56.14 dragon or monster that is parallel to the legs of iron. 00:21:56.17\00:22:02.74 Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and now we have and so tell me, 00:22:02.77\00:22:09.79 what is this power? 00:22:09.82\00:22:11.68 I want to hear it louder. 00:22:11.71\00:22:14.07 This is the great iron monarchy of Rome. 00:22:14.10\00:22:19.95 Now notice there, he has ten horns 00:22:19.98\00:22:25.87 and we read before that the ten horns represent ten kingdoms. 00:22:25.90\00:22:31.02 They parallel the ten toes on the metal man, 00:22:31.05\00:22:36.64 Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Rome, 00:22:36.67\00:22:39.23 the breakup of the Roman Empire 00:22:39.26\00:22:41.58 into the kingdoms and the states of Europe 00:22:41.61\00:22:44.22 as symbolized by the ten toes but here you have ten horns. 00:22:44.25\00:22:51.60 Now the Bible says categorically, 00:22:51.63\00:22:54.42 absolutely plainly 00:22:54.45\00:22:56.31 that in Bible prophecy a horn is a king. 00:22:56.34\00:23:03.42 And these ten horns are symbolic of the ten kingdoms 00:23:03.45\00:23:09.04 that came out of the Roman Empire. 00:23:09.07\00:23:14.93 We would call them today European powers. 00:23:14.96\00:23:20.25 Now this is so incredible and so amazing 00:23:20.28\00:23:27.92 because we discover that the Antichrist 00:23:27.95\00:23:31.82 comes up on the ruins of the Roman Empire. 00:23:31.85\00:23:36.51 This is the word of the Lord. 00:23:36.54\00:23:40.03 And he comes up after 500 AD. 00:23:40.06\00:23:45.72 Daniel 7:24, Daniel 7:24 00:23:45.75\00:23:53.72 and here is the text, I'm gonna read it to you. 00:23:53.75\00:23:57.48 Daniel 7:24, "The ten horns are ten kings 00:23:57.51\00:24:05.30 who will come from this kingdom." 00:24:05.33\00:24:07.89 They are the kings of Europe 00:24:07.92\00:24:09.29 that came out of the Roman Empire. 00:24:09.32\00:24:11.71 Every Church believes that. Everybody knows that. 00:24:11.74\00:24:15.87 Now just hold on for a moment. 00:24:15.90\00:24:18.05 I want to tell you folks something. 00:24:18.08\00:24:19.66 Are you listening? 00:24:19.69\00:24:22.12 God has got His people in every church. 00:24:22.15\00:24:26.28 Do you believe that? Say yes. 00:24:26.31\00:24:29.59 God has got His people in every church. 00:24:29.62\00:24:33.21 I love Roman Catholic people. I appreciate them. 00:24:33.24\00:24:37.63 God has got His people in the Baptist Church, 00:24:37.66\00:24:40.28 the Methodist Church, 00:24:40.31\00:24:41.93 the Episcopalian Church, the Lutheran Church. 00:24:41.96\00:24:45.34 God loves people. 00:24:45.37\00:24:46.90 I want you to know tonight we are not talking about people 00:24:46.93\00:24:51.88 but about a great system of deception 00:24:51.91\00:24:56.08 that is rooted in Europe 00:24:56.11\00:24:58.67 and that reigned during the dark ages. 00:24:58.70\00:25:01.35 We are not talking about people today because God loves people. 00:25:01.38\00:25:06.53 Now look at the text. 00:25:06.56\00:25:07.93 Okay, we're gonna read this text again. 00:25:07.96\00:25:10.36 "The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom." 00:25:10.39\00:25:14.48 That's true. 00:25:14.51\00:25:16.54 "After them another king will arise, 00:25:16.57\00:25:22.11 different from the earlier ones. 00:25:22.14\00:25:24.82 He will subdue three kings." 00:25:24.85\00:25:26.88 He comes up after the kingdoms of Europe 00:25:26.91\00:25:30.24 and the kingdoms of Europe, 00:25:30.27\00:25:31.93 I know from my study of history, were established around 500 AD. 00:25:31.96\00:25:38.83 And so this king comes upon the world scene around 500 AD 00:25:38.86\00:25:45.96 and he becomes a great king and a world power. 00:25:45.99\00:25:51.16 Identification mark number four, the Bible says, 00:25:51.19\00:25:55.40 he overthrows three kings. 00:25:55.43\00:25:58.88 Daniel 7:8 and I want to see the text. 00:25:58.91\00:26:04.91 Daniel 7:8, "While," 00:26:04.94\00:26:08.04 and I want you folks to see it too. 00:26:08.07\00:26:10.46 You see we're going a little slower. 00:26:10.49\00:26:13.60 This is new territory. 00:26:13.63\00:26:16.29 "While I was thinking about the horns," 00:26:16.32\00:26:18.64 the kings of Europe, "there before me was another horn, 00:26:18.67\00:26:24.44 a little one, which came up among them, 00:26:24.47\00:26:28.32 and three of the first horns," kings, "were uprooted before it. 00:26:28.35\00:26:34.03 This horn had eyes like the eyes of man 00:26:34.06\00:26:39.63 and a mouth that spoke boastfully." 00:26:39.66\00:26:42.68 Or great things. 00:26:42.71\00:26:45.24 History tells me that on the ruins 00:26:45.27\00:26:47.78 of the Roman Empire in Europe, 00:26:47.81\00:26:50.22 there arose a king around 500 A.D. 00:26:50.25\00:26:53.63 and he overthrew three European Kings. 00:26:53.66\00:26:56.76 I will tell you who they were, 00:26:56.79\00:26:58.74 the Heruli, the Vandals, and the Ostrogoths. 00:26:58.77\00:27:05.51 He is a counterfeit. 00:27:05.54\00:27:06.91 He is European after 500 00:27:06.94\00:27:08.54 and he overthrows three European Kings. 00:27:08.57\00:27:12.35 We are on track here tonight. 00:27:12.38\00:27:14.72 Now we're going to notice identification mark number 5. 00:27:14.75\00:27:18.61 The Bible says, He is greater than the others 00:27:18.64\00:27:23.03 and the text is Daniel 7:20. 00:27:23.06\00:27:27.33 He starts small. 00:27:27.36\00:27:31.17 He starts in humility but he becomes greater. 00:27:31.20\00:27:35.70 "I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head." 00:27:35.73\00:27:39.68 The Kings of Europe. 00:27:39.71\00:27:41.23 "And about the other horn that came up, 00:27:41.26\00:27:43.19 before which three of them fell--" 00:27:43.22\00:27:45.05 The Heruli, the Vandals, and Ostrogoths. 00:27:45.08\00:27:48.98 "The horn that looked more imposing than the others 00:27:49.01\00:27:53.51 and that had eyes and a mouth that spoke boastfully." 00:27:53.54\00:27:58.07 This king starts in a small way. 00:27:58.10\00:28:02.79 He is in the church of God 00:28:02.82\00:28:06.24 but even though he starts in a small way, 00:28:06.27\00:28:09.93 he becomes the greatest king of the world. 00:28:09.96\00:28:14.79 And he deceives the whole wide world 00:28:14.82\00:28:17.89 because people do not study the prophecies of the Bible. 00:28:17.92\00:28:22.40 The Bible tells me identification mark number 6, 00:28:22.43\00:28:26.40 he is different to any other king in the world. 00:28:26.43\00:28:31.61 And I want you to notice Daniel 7:24. 00:28:31.64\00:28:36.20 I want you to know we are dealing with the truth 00:28:36.23\00:28:39.93 and Jesus said, "You will know the truth 00:28:39.96\00:28:41.97 and the truth will make you free." 00:28:42.00\00:28:43.53 Now look at this. 00:28:43.56\00:28:45.99 I'm glad that you want to be free. 00:28:46.02\00:28:47.84 I'm glad that you want to know the truth. 00:28:47.87\00:28:50.11 Look at this text. 00:28:50.14\00:28:51.77 "The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom." 00:28:51.80\00:28:55.52 These are the kingdoms of Europe. 00:28:55.55\00:28:58.35 "After them another king will arise," 00:28:58.38\00:29:01.60 notice the word, different, different, 00:29:01.63\00:29:06.75 "Different from the earlier ones,

That is the Antichrist. 00:34:47.85\00:34:51.88 "With her the kings of the earth committed adultery 00:34:51.91\00:34:54.97 and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated 00:34:55.00\00:34:57.69 with the wine of her adulteries." 00:34:57.72\00:35:00.63 She got the world drunk. 00:35:00.66\00:35:02.87 "Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. 00:35:02.90\00:35:07.84 There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast." 00:35:07.87\00:35:10.94 This is not the true church.
