WATERSHED FOR MYSELF AS WELL.
00:11:54.83\00:11:59.20

WE'LL BE ON LIVE STREAM AS WELL
00:12:27.86\00:12:31.16
SO WE'RE NOT DONE, YOU KNOW?
WE'RE STILL GOING TO CARRY ON.
00:12:31.16\00:12:35.43
WE'RE ON THE LAST LESSON OF
THIS QUARTER, 'THE TEACHINGS OF
00:12:35.43\00:12:38.46
JESUS' AND THIS LESSON, OF
COURSE - THIS BOOKLET THAT YOU
00:12:38.46\00:12:42.70
CAN RECEIVE FREE - IT TIES
IN WITH THE LAST ONE TODAY, 'THE
00:12:42.70\00:12:47.50
SECOND COMING OF JESUS.'
THERE ARE DIFFERENT IDEAS IN
00:12:47.50\00:12:49.86
RESPECTING THE WAY IN WHICH
JESUS WILL MAKE HIS APPEARANCE
00:12:49.86\00:12:53.90
AT THE END AND THAT
END IS ALMOST UPON US.
00:12:53.90\00:12:57.36
THERE'S THE RAPTURE THEORY.
THERE'S ALL KINDS OF THINGS.
00:12:57.36\00:12:59.93
BUT TODAY WE'RE LOOKING AT WHAT
THE BIBLE REALLY TEACHES AND
00:12:59.93\00:13:04.40
YOU, HOPEFULLY, WOULDN'T
EXPECT ANYTHING ELSE FROM US.
00:13:04.40\00:13:08.23
BUT HERE WE ARE AND I
WANT TO BEGIN READING ON THE
00:13:08.23\00:13:12.13
INTRODUCTORY PAGE
OF SABBATH'S LESSON.
00:13:12.13\00:13:17.23
THE MEMORY VERSE IS FROM
JOHN 14:1 THROUGH 3, OF COURSE.
00:13:17.23\00:13:21.43
JESUS SAID, "LET NOT YOUR HEART
BE TROUBLED; YOU BELIEVE IN GOD,
00:13:21.43\00:13:26.63
BELIEVE ALSO IN ME. IN
MY FATHER'S HOUSE ARE MANY
00:13:26.63\00:13:30.56
MANSIONS; IF IT WERE NOT
SO, I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU.
00:13:30.56\00:13:35.40
I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU.
AND IF I GO AND PREPARE A PLACE
00:13:35.40\00:13:39.40
FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN
AND RECEIVE YOU TO MYSELF; THAT
00:13:39.40\00:13:44.13
WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY
BE ALSO." BEAUTIFUL PROMISE.
00:13:44.13\00:13:51.00
SO I WANT TO READ THE REST OF
THE INTRO OF THE LESSON HERE ON
00:13:51.00\00:13:55.70
SABBATH AFTERNOON'S PAGE,
"THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS,
00:13:55.70\00:14:01.26
MENTIONED MORE THAN 300 TIMES
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, IS THE
00:14:01.26\00:14:05.46
CAPSTONE OF OUR TEACHINGS.
IT IS ESSENTIAL TO OUR IDENTITY
00:14:05.46\00:14:11.60
AS SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTIST CHRISTIANS.
00:14:11.60\00:14:14.50
THE DOCTRINE IS
ENGRAVED IN OUR NAME."
00:14:14.50\00:14:18.53
THERE ARE THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE
SEEN CENTRAL CHURCH OUTSIDE.
00:14:18.53\00:14:20.90
WE HAVE A BIG MOSAIC. IT
CAME FROM ITALY OR GREECE, I
00:14:20.90\00:14:23.13
FORGET WHERE, BUT THERE'S
THREE ANGELS AND RIGHT BACK HERE
00:14:23.13\00:14:27.20
THERE'S ANOTHER
MOSAIC FROM ITALY OR GREECE.
00:14:27.20\00:14:29.36
WE DON'T WORSHIP IT, BY THE WAY,
BUT IT'S JUST A PICTURE OF THE
00:14:29.36\00:14:34.00
SECOND COMING OF JESUS. SO
IT'S ENGRAVED IN OUR NAME AS
00:14:34.00\00:14:38.83
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS.
"WITHOUT THE PROMISE OF HIS
00:14:38.83\00:14:42.80
COMING, OUR FAITH WOULD BE
IN VAIN." AND INDEED, IT WOULD.
00:14:42.80\00:14:46.76
"THIS GLORIOUS TRUTH GIVES US
A SENSE OF DESTINY AND MOTIVATES
00:14:46.76\00:14:50.90
OUR MISSIONARY OUTREACH.
IT COULD BE ARGUED THAT THE
00:14:50.90\00:14:55.46
STRETCHING OF TIME BEYOND OUR
EXPECTATIONS WOULD UNDERMINE OUR
00:14:55.46\00:14:59.23
BELIEF IN JESUS'
PROMISE TO RETURN. HOWEVER,
00:14:59.23\00:15:03.86
THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED."
WELL, I THINK IT HAS WITH SOME
00:15:03.86\00:15:09.03
OF US AND WE'LL BE LOOKING
AT THAT THIS MORNING, BUT
00:15:09.03\00:15:13.60
OFFICIALLY, NO IT HASN'T.
AND IT HASN'T FOR US HERE - I
00:15:13.60\00:15:17.56
KNOW. "FOR MANY, OUR PASSION FOR
00:15:17.56\00:15:20.26
CHRIST'S RETURN IS
STRONGER THAN EVER.
00:15:20.26\00:15:23.46
THIS WEEK WE WILL REVIEW WHAT
JESUS SAID ABOUT THE BLESSED
00:15:23.46\00:15:27.76
HOPE AND GLORIOUS APPEARING OF
OUR GREAT GOD AND SAVIOR JESUS
00:15:27.76\00:15:33.43
CHRIST." ELOQUENT,
WASN'T IT? JUST ELOQUENT.
00:15:33.43\00:15:37.66
SO SUNDAY WE'RE LOOKING AT
THE PROMISE OF CHRIST'S RETURN.
00:15:37.66\00:15:42.40
NOW GOD HAS GIVEN US MANY
PROMISES IN HIS WORD AND I KNOW
00:15:42.40\00:15:48.20
IT'S TRUE TO SAY THAT EVERY
PROMISE HE HAS GIVEN FOR OUR
00:15:48.20\00:15:51.46
GOOD, SATAN HAS ALWAYS SOUGHT TO
CONTEST THAT BECAUSE HE KNOWS IT
00:15:51.46\00:15:57.96
NEVER WORKS OUT
FOR HIS BEST GOOD.
00:15:57.96\00:16:02.20
HE KNOWS THERE'S
ALWAYS ADVERSE CIRCUMSTANCES.
00:16:02.20\00:16:04.63
ANYTHING THAT GOD PROMISES FOR
US THAT'S GOOD, IT DOESN'T MEAN
00:16:04.63\00:16:07.20
THAT FOR HIM SO HE TRIES TO STOP
IT. AND ESPECIALLY CAN WE SAY
00:16:07.20\00:16:11.86
THIS ABOUT THE
PROMISE OF THE SECOND COMING.
00:16:11.86\00:16:14.86
BUT AS WE LOOK BACK IN THE
HISTORY OF GOD'S DEALING AND THE
00:16:14.86\00:16:17.76
GREAT CONTROVERSY, IN THE
VERY BEGINNING WHEN GOD GAVE THE
00:16:17.76\00:16:21.63
PROMISE OF A REDEEMER,
SATAN TRIED TO CONTEST THAT.
00:16:21.63\00:16:26.10
THE PROMISE WAS GIVEN IN
THE GARDEN OF EDEN, RIGHT THERE
00:16:26.10\00:16:29.10
BESIDE THE TREE, GENESIS 3:15,
THERE WAS A PROMISE GIVEN OF A
00:16:29.10\00:16:33.83
REDEEMER WHO WOULD COME AND
IN THE PROCESS HIS HEEL WOULD BE
00:16:33.83\00:16:39.16
BRUISED - JESUS
WOULD BE CRUCIFIED -
00:16:39.16\00:16:41.20
BUT THE SERPENT'S
HEAD WOULD BE CRUSHED.
00:16:41.20\00:16:43.66
SATAN LISTENED TO THAT AND
DIDN'T LIKE THE IDEA OF THAT.
00:16:43.66\00:16:46.46
SO WHAT HAS HE DONE?
HE'S SOUGHT TO CONTEST THAT.
00:16:46.46\00:16:49.53
ALWAYS THE SAME. IT NEVER FAILS.
00:16:49.53\00:16:52.46
WHEN JESUS ACTUALLY CAME -
BEFORE JESUS CAME - TIME AND
00:16:52.46\00:16:56.93
TIME AGAIN, SATAN SOUGHT TO
DESTROY THE BLOODLINE THROUGH
00:16:56.93\00:16:59.93
WHICH THE REDEEMER
WOULD COME. YOU KNOW THIS.
00:16:59.93\00:17:02.10
IT'S ALL HISTORY.
IT'S IN THE SCRIPTURES.
00:17:02.10\00:17:04.90
AND WHEN JESUS ACTUALLY CAME,
WE KNOW WELL THE STORY OF HOW
00:17:04.90\00:17:09.40
SATAN, WORKING THROUGH KING
HEROD, TRIED TO DESTROY ALL THE
00:17:09.40\00:17:13.00
BABY BOYS IN BETHLEHEM,
UP TO TWO YEARS OF AGE.
00:17:13.00\00:17:15.83
HE DID NOT LIKE THE PROMISE
SO HE WANTED TO RESIST THAT AND
00:17:15.83\00:17:20.46
DESTROY EVERY HOPE OF
THAT PROMISE BEING FULFILLED.
00:17:20.46\00:17:23.96
BUT, YOU KNOW, PRAISE GOD.
GOD'S PURPOSES, HOWEVER MUCH
00:17:23.96\00:17:27.63
SATAN MAY CONTEST
THEM, GOD ALWAYS SUCCEEDS.
00:17:27.63\00:17:32.23
HE COMES THROUGH
BECAUSE HE IS GOD.
00:17:32.23\00:17:36.63
AND IT'S BECAUSE HE'S GOD IT'S
- IT'S WITH BOLDNESS, ALMOST
00:17:36.63\00:17:41.63
BRAZEN BOLDNESS, WE MIGHT
SAY, THAT SIX HUNDRED YEARS
00:17:41.63\00:17:46.90
THEREABOUTS, BEFORE JESUS CAME
THE FIRST TIME TO THIS EARTH,
00:17:46.90\00:17:51.53
THROUGH THE PROPHET DANIEL IN
DANIEL 9, GOD STATED BOLDLY THE
00:17:51.53\00:17:55.76
VERY YEAR WHEN JESUS WOULD COME
TO BEGIN HIS PUBLIC MINISTRY
00:17:55.76\00:17:59.70
IN AD 27. IT'S THERE IN THAT
70-WEEK PROPHECY, IN FACT, THE
00:17:59.70\00:18:03.86
LAST WEEK - THE SEVENTIETH WEEK
OF THE OTHER - OF THE SEVENTY
00:18:03.86\00:18:07.80
WEEKS. IN THAT PROPHECY IT WAS
BOLDLY STATED THE VERY YEAR THAT
00:18:07.80\00:18:12.36
THE MESSIAH WOULD BE CRUCIFIED,
TO OFFER FOR US AN ATONING
00:18:12.36\00:18:16.93
SACRIFICE. SATAN
TRIED DESPERATELY TO
00:18:16.93\00:18:20.10
DESTROY THAT
PROMISE BEING FULFILLED.
00:18:20.10\00:18:22.60
BUT JESUS WENT TO THE CROSS AS
A SINLESS OFFERING AND THE DEVIL
00:18:22.60\00:18:27.83
WAS THWARTED AGAIN. AND
SO GOD HAS FULFILLED THESE
00:18:27.83\00:18:33.16
PROMISES TO US REGARDING JESUS'
FIRST COMING. THEY WERE SURE.
00:18:33.16\00:18:39.40
AND, THEREFORE, WE KNOW -
WE CAN KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THE
00:18:39.40\00:18:42.86
PROMISES RELATING TO JESUS'
SECOND COMING, THAT WILL ALSO
00:18:42.86\00:18:47.50
COME TO PASS AND SATAN WILL NOT
BE ABLE TO OVERRULE IT, THOUGH
00:18:47.50\00:18:51.63
HE'S SURE GOING TO
TRY TO MESS THINGS UP.
00:18:51.63\00:18:55.63
HOWEVER, THAT SAID, WITH JESUS -
WITH THE PROMISE OF JESUS' FIRST
00:18:55.63\00:19:02.00
COMING, IT WAS THERE THAT THE
YEAR WAS GIVEN WHEN HE'D BEGIN
00:19:02.00\00:19:05.06
HIS PUBLIC MINISTRY IN AD 27.
BUT THE PROMISE OF JESUS' SECOND
00:19:05.06\00:19:13.40
COMING, THAT TIME IS
NOT GIVEN IN SCRIPTURE.
00:19:13.40\00:19:16.40
IT'S NOT GIVEN ANYWHERE.
WE KNOW THAT VERY WELL.
00:19:16.40\00:19:20.96
BUT NONETHELESS, WE KNOW THAT IT
WILL SURELY COME TO PASS BECAUSE
00:19:20.96\00:19:24.10
EVERY OTHER PROMISE OF
GOD IS BEING FULFILLED.
00:19:24.10\00:19:27.56
BUT HERE'S THE THING. WE
DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE
00:19:27.56\00:19:29.26
BUT THIS WE DO KNOW: IT CAN BE
DELAYED. GOD KNOWS THE HOUR AND
00:19:29.26\00:19:36.83
GOD KNOWS THE DESIRABLE
TIME HE WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE
00:19:36.83\00:19:39.06
FULFILLED THAT, WHICH WAS
ACTUALLY DECADES BEFORE THIS
00:19:39.06\00:19:42.63
DATE IN 2014. BUT TIME HAS
LINGERED ON. DO YOU KNOW WHY?
00:19:42.63\00:19:47.53
BECAUSE THE PROMISE IS SURE, BUT
BECAUSE WE, GOD'S PEOPLE, ARE
00:19:47.53\00:19:51.86
THE ONES WHO HAVE
DELAYED IT AND ARE DELAYING IT.
00:19:51.86\00:19:58.30
THERE'S TWO THINGS - WHY
THIS FULFILLMENT IS DELAYED.
00:19:58.30\00:20:03.03
#1 IF YOU LOOK AT THAT MOSAIC
OUTSIDE, WE HAVEN'T TAKEN THE
00:20:03.03\00:20:06.90
THIRD ANGEL'S MESSAGE TO THE
WORLD YET. THAT'S ONE REASON.
00:20:06.90\00:20:11.36
AND THE SECOND REASON, AS WELL,
IS THAT JESUS HIMSELF - IT'S NOT
00:20:11.36\00:20:17.16
JESUS, OKAY, WE
DON'T WORSHIP THIS PICTURE.
00:20:17.16\00:20:19.43
DON'T E-MAIL US,
WE DON'T WORSHIP IT.
00:20:19.43\00:20:21.90
BUT JESUS, HIMSELF -
THERE'S A WONDERFUL TEACHING
00:20:21.90\00:20:28.20
IN THE BIBLE CALLED
RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH.
00:20:28.20\00:20:32.13
AND IN ITS FULLNESS, THAT
TEACHING OF RIGHTEOUSNESS BY
00:20:32.13\00:20:35.93
FAITH MEANS THAT JESUS CAN COME
INTO THE LIFE, CAN FORGIVE EVERY
00:20:35.93\00:20:43.10
SIN - HE CAN CLEANSE US FROM
EVERY SIN AND HE CAN RECREATE US
00:20:43.10\00:20:48.80
INTO HIS OWN BEAUTIFUL,
RIGHTEOUS, MORAL IMAGE.
00:20:48.80\00:20:52.96
AND THE REASON HE HASN'T COME
YET IS BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T GOT
00:20:52.96\00:20:57.73
THAT YET. WE'RE NOT
EXPERIENCING IT AS WE SHOULD.
00:20:57.73\00:21:02.80
THAT'S WHY WE'RE STILL HERE.
LAST YEAR OUR CHURCH CELEBRATED
00:21:02.80\00:21:08.73
151 YEARS,
OFFICIALLY, AS A DENOMINATION.
00:21:08.73\00:21:14.70
SOME OF US WERE INCLINED
TO CELEBRATE, 'WOW, WE'VE BEEN
00:21:14.70\00:21:17.00
AROUND 150 YEARS.'
I FELT LIKE WEEPING.
00:21:17.00\00:21:22.63
THERE'S NO GROUNDS TO CELEBRATE.
150 YEARS HAS GONE BY SINCE WE
00:21:22.63\00:21:26.83
WERE ESTABLISHED AS A
DENOMINATED CHURCH AND WE'RE
00:21:26.83\00:21:30.50
STILL HERE. WHY?
BECAUSE OF THE THINGS I'VE
00:21:30.50\00:21:32.33
JUST MENTIONED JUST NOW.
AND SO, JESUS WANTS TO CHANGE
00:21:32.33\00:21:36.26
THAT. HE'S
LONGING TO CHANGE THAT.
00:21:36.26\00:21:38.96
AND HERE IN 'CHRIST'S OBJECT
LESSONS' PAGE 69, HERE THE
00:21:38.96\00:21:44.43
SERVANT OF GOD ENCAPSULATES WHAT
I'VE JUST BEEN TALKING ABOUT
00:21:44.43\00:21:48.83
HERE. SAYS IT
FAR BETTER THAN ME.
00:21:48.83\00:21:51.56
IT SAYS, "IT IS THE PRIVILEGE
OF EVERY CHRISTIAN, NOT ONLY TO
00:21:51.56\00:21:55.73
LOOK FOR, BUT TO HASTEN
THE COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS
00:21:55.73\00:22:00.76
CHRIST." BUT HE
HASN'T COME, RIGHT?
00:22:00.76\00:22:04.90
IT SAYS, "CHRIST IS WAITING FOR
THE MANIFESTATION OF HIMSELF IN
00:22:04.90\00:22:09.13
HIS CHURCH. WHEN
THE CHARACTER OF CHRIST
00:22:09.13\00:22:12.73
SHALL BE PERFECTLY REPRODUCED IN
HIS PEOPLE, THEN HE WILL COME TO
00:22:12.73\00:22:17.16
CLAIM THEM AS HIS
OWN." THERE YOU HAVE IT.
00:22:17.16\00:22:21.00
SO WE HAVE A
PROMISE THAT IS SURE.
00:22:21.00\00:22:23.96
BUT IT'S NOT FULFILLED YET
BECAUSE OF NO FAULT ON GOD'S
00:22:23.96\00:22:27.53
PART, BUT BECAUSE OF US.
AND I'M SUPPOSED TO BE A LEADER
00:22:27.53\00:22:31.86
SO THERE'S MORE ONUS AND
BLAME UPON ME THAN ANYBODY ELSE.
00:22:31.86\00:22:36.16
AND PASTOR CHRIS AND
PASTOR DOUG, YOU KNOW?
00:22:36.16\00:22:39.70
WE'RE FIRST IN THE FIRING LINE.
BUT YOU FOLKS ARE NOT FAR BEHIND
00:22:39.70\00:22:43.40
US. DON'T FORGET THAT. NOW
LET ME READ YOU THIS AS WELL.
00:22:43.40\00:22:47.70
THIS IS FROM 'IN THIS
DAY WITH GOD' PAGE 204.
00:22:47.70\00:22:52.43
I'M FOCUSING A LITTLE BIT ON
THIS ISSUE OF THE CHARACTER OF
00:22:52.43\00:22:56.26
CHRIST BEING PERFECTLY
REPRODUCED SO THAT THAT PROMISE
00:22:56.26\00:22:59.56
OF HIS COMING CAN BE FULFILLED.
LISTEN TO THIS: 'IN THIS DAY
00:22:59.56\00:23:04.46
WITH GOD' PAGE 204,
"CHRIST DID NOT LEAVE
00:23:04.46\00:23:09.30
THIS WORLD UNTIL HE HAD MADE IT
POSSIBLE FOR EVERY SOUL TO LIVE
00:23:09.30\00:23:13.03
A LIFE OF PERFECT
FAITH AND OBEDIENCE.
00:23:13.03\00:23:17.33
TO HAVE A PERFECT CHARACTER.
CHRIST HAS MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR
00:23:17.33\00:23:22.26
YOU TO PRACTICE HIS
LIFE." DID YOU HEAR THAT?
00:23:22.26\00:23:27.53
THERE ARE PEOPLE
TODAY IN OUR CHURCH WHO SAY,
00:23:27.53\00:23:29.46
'WELL, I DON'T
BELIEVE THAT.' WELL, I DO.
00:23:29.46\00:23:32.26
I'M OLD-FASHIONED
ENOUGH TO BELIEVE THAT.
00:23:32.26\00:23:36.76
I ASK YOU A QUESTION: DO YOU
HAVE FAITH TO BELIEVE THAT JESUS
00:23:36.76\00:23:40.26
CAN DO THAT? BECAUSE
NOTICE SOMETHING IMPORTANT HERE.
00:23:40.26\00:23:43.36
WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT LEGALISM
OR EARNING YOUR WAY TO HEAVEN,
00:23:43.36\00:23:46.26
IT'S WHAT HE CAN DO IN
YOUR LIFE IF YOU WILL LET HIM.
00:23:46.26\00:23:49.93
LET ME READ IT AGAIN, "CHRIST
DID NOT LEAVE THIS WORLD UNTIL
00:23:49.93\00:23:54.50
HE HAD MADE IT POSSIBLE"
- WHO MADE IT POSSIBLE? -
00:23:54.50\00:23:58.20
"...HE HAD MADE IT POSSIBLE
FOR EVERY SOUL TO LIVE A LIFE OF
00:23:58.20\00:24:02.40
PERFECT FAITH AND OBEDIENCE.
TO HAVE A PERFECT CHARACTER.
00:24:02.40\00:24:06.16
CHRIST HAS MADE IT POSSIBLE"
- WHO'S MADE IT POSSIBLE?
00:24:06.16\00:24:10.70
"CHRIST HAS MADE IT POSSIBLE
FOR YOU TO PRACTICE HIS LIFE."
00:24:10.70\00:24:16.90
TO PRACTICE HIS LIFE. AND
THEN THERE'S ANOTHER ONE I'M
00:24:16.90\00:24:20.86
GOING TO THROW IN WITH THIS AND
I CITED THIS THE OTHER WEEK AND
00:24:20.86\00:24:24.93
I GOT SOME E-MAILS BECAUSE
I DIDN'T GIVE THE REFERENCE.
00:24:24.93\00:24:27.86
SO IF THERE'S ANYBODY OUT THERE
WHO MISSED IT - AND I TRIED TO
00:24:27.86\00:24:30.80
E-MAIL EVERYBODY BACK -
BUT FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO MAY
00:24:30.80\00:24:33.60
HAVE MISSED THIS,
I'M GOING TO READ IT.
00:24:33.60\00:24:36.33
THE REFERENCE IS REVIEW & HERALD
MARCH 10, 1904 AND I THINK IT'S
00:24:36.33\00:24:42.33
IN '3 SELECTED MESSAGES'
SOMEWHERE AROUND THERE.
00:24:42.33\00:24:44.86
BUT ANYWAY, REVIEW &
HERALD MARCH 10, 1904 - THE LAST
00:24:44.86\00:24:50.60
STATEMENT I READ I SAID,
'YOU KNOW, IF YOU HAVE FAITH TO
00:24:50.60\00:24:53.20
BELIEVE, CHRIST WILL MAKE IT -
HE'S MADE IT POSSIBLE.' AND HERE
00:24:53.20\00:24:56.03
IT COMES, "HE WHO IS NOT OF
SUFFICIENT FAITH IN CHRIST TO
00:24:56.03\00:25:02.00
BELIEVE THAT HE CAN KEEP HIM
FROM SINNING, HAS NOT THE FAITH
00:25:02.00\00:25:07.86
THAT WILL GIVE HIM AN ENTRANCE
INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD."
00:25:07.86\00:25:12.63
IS THAT PLAIN ENOUGH?
IT'S PLAIN ENOUGH, RIGHT?
00:25:12.63\00:25:16.23
IT COMES DOWN TO FAITH BECAUSE
HE IS THE ONE WHO WILL MAKE IT
00:25:16.23\00:25:22.46
POSSIBLE IF WE'LL
GIVE HIM OUR HEARTS.
00:25:22.46\00:25:24.46
THAT'S WHERE OUR STRUGGLE LIES.
IT'S NOT OVERCOMING SIN, THAT'S
00:25:24.46\00:25:27.90
JESUS' JOB TO DO THAT. OUR
STRUGGLE IS GOING TO HIM TO
00:25:27.90\00:25:31.30
SAY, LORD, HELP ME, HELP
ME, HELP ME OVERCOME.' HE'LL DO
00:25:31.30\00:25:35.16
THAT. OUR
STRUGGLE IS WANTING TO LET
00:25:35.16\00:25:37.50
HIM DO THAT. THAT'S WHERE IT IS.
00:25:37.50\00:25:40.20
BUT, YOU KNOW, EVERY DAY, IF WE
GO TO THE CROSS AND SEE WHAT IT
00:25:40.20\00:25:42.26
COST HIM TO PAY THE PRICE FOR
US - THAT'S WHERE THE INCENTIVE
00:25:42.26\00:25:46.83
COMES WHEN TEMPTATION COMES
AND IT MAY BE TUGGING AT YOUR
00:25:46.83\00:25:49.86
PASSIONS AND YOUR HEARTSTRINGS
AND YOU THINK OF THAT CROSS AND
00:25:49.86\00:25:52.40
YOU THINK, 'LORD,
HOW CAN I DO THAT?'
00:25:52.40\00:25:54.06
LIKE JACOB, JOSEPH
- IN POTIPHAR'S HOUSE.
00:25:54.06\00:25:56.90
SHE CAME, YOU KNOW,
AND SHE WAS HITTING ON HIM.
00:25:56.90\00:25:58.46
HIS JACKET CAME OFF AND HE SAID,
'LORD, HOW CAN I DO THIS THING
00:25:58.46\00:26:01.66
AND SIN AGAINST MY
GOD?' AND HE WAS GONE.
00:26:01.66\00:26:05.00
DO YOU THINK HE
WASN'T TEMPTED? SURE HE WAS.
00:26:05.00\00:26:07.23
HE WAS A RED-BLOODED YOUNG MAN
BUT HE LIVED - HE LIVED FOR A
00:26:07.23\00:26:09.50
HIGHER PURPOSE AND THAT WAS TO
HONOR THE GOD WHO CREATED HIM.
00:26:09.50\00:26:13.83
TO HONOR THE GOD WHO, IN
HIS DAY, HAD PROMISED HIM A
00:26:13.83\00:26:16.10
REDEEMER. THAT
REDEEMER HAS ALREADY BEEN
00:26:16.10\00:26:18.20
AND WHEN YOU GET TEMPTED
AND YOU LOOK AT THAT CROSS
00:26:18.20\00:26:20.36
AND YOU THINK OF THE PRICE THAT
WAS PAID YOU SAY, 'LORD, HOW CAN
00:26:20.36\00:26:23.10
I DO THIS THING
AND SIN AGAINST MY GOD?
00:26:23.10\00:26:25.80
HOW CAN I DO THIS THING AND
CRUCIFY AFRESH THE SON OF GOD
00:26:25.80\00:26:28.96
AND PUT HIM TO SHAME?'
THAT'S WHERE THE INCENTIVE LIES.
00:26:28.96\00:26:32.40
SO IF YOU WILL SPEND TIME BEFORE
THAT CROSS, WHEN THE TEMPTATION
00:26:32.40\00:26:38.86
COMES, YOU WILL HAVE
THE INCENTIVE TO SAY,
00:26:38.86\00:26:41.80
'LORD, HELP ME.'
AND HE'LL DO THE REST.
00:26:41.80\00:26:44.13
AND YOU WILL FIND THAT YOU
CAN LIVE A VICTORIOUS LIFE.
00:26:44.13\00:26:48.06
ALRIGHT, LET'S MOVE ON.
WE'VE GOT TO MOVE ON NOW.
00:26:48.06\00:26:51.03
WE'VE GOT TO GO TO MONDAY.
THE PURPOSE OF JESUS' SECOND
00:26:51.03\00:26:54.83
COMING - THE FIRST PARAGRAPH ON
MONDAY'S INTRO READS AS FOLLOWS:
00:26:54.83\00:27:01.10
"THE GREAT PLAN OF REDEMPTION
WILL FIND ITS CULMINATION IN THE
00:27:01.10\00:27:05.83
SECOND COMING." THE
GREAT PLAN OF REDEMPTION
00:27:05.83\00:27:09.20
WILL FIND ITS CULMINATION
IN THE SECOND COMING.
00:27:09.20\00:27:12.83
WE'RE LOOKING AT THE PURPOSE
OF CHRIST'S SECOND COMING.
00:27:12.83\00:27:15.60
"WITHOUT CHRIST'S RETURN TO THIS
EARTH, HIS INCARNATION, DEATH
00:27:15.60\00:27:18.80
AND RESURRECTION WOULD HAVE
NO EFFECT FOR OUR SALVATION."
00:27:18.80\00:27:23.60
AND HOW TRUE THIS
IS. IF HE HADN'T COME HIS
00:27:23.60\00:27:26.73
INCARNATION, HIS DEATH,
HIS RESURRECTION - THE PURPOSES
00:27:26.73\00:27:30.53
WOULD HAVE COME TO NOTHING
IF HE HAD NOT FULFILLED THOSE
00:27:30.53\00:27:33.53
REQUIREMENTS. "AND AT
JESUS' SECOND COMING, HE
00:27:33.53\00:27:38.83
WILL INDEED BRING FORTH
THE FRUITS OF GOD'S PURPOSES."
00:27:38.83\00:27:45.33
HE'LL BRING FORTH THE FRUITS
OF GOD'S PURPOSES THAT WERE
00:27:45.33\00:27:49.00
ENSHRINED IN HIM COMING TO
EARTH, HIS INCARNATION, HIS
00:27:49.00\00:27:53.20
DEATH, AND HIS RESURRECTION.
AND HE'LL BRING FORTH THE FRUITS
00:27:53.20\00:27:56.50
OF GOD'S PURPOSE AS RELATED
TO GOD'S MERCY, BECAUSE GOD HAS
00:27:56.50\00:28:02.36
PURPOSES OF MERCY
INVOLVED IN ALL THIS.
00:28:02.36\00:28:06.50
AND AT HIS SECOND COMING IT WILL
ALSO BRING FORTH THE FRUITS OF
00:28:06.50\00:28:10.56
GOD'S PURPOSES OF HIS
JUSTICE RELATING TO ALL THIS.
00:28:10.56\00:28:17.80
WE HAVE THE BLENDING OF MERCY
AND JUSTICE AT THE CROSS AND AT
00:28:17.80\00:28:23.03
THE SECOND COMING WE SEE THE
FULFILLMENT OF GOD'S MERCY AND
00:28:23.03\00:28:27.73
ALSO HIS JUSTICE. THOSE
PURPOSES WILL BE FULFILLED
00:28:27.73\00:28:32.33
AND WE'RE GOING TO
LOOK AT THAT RIGHT NOW.
00:28:32.33\00:28:34.43
IN MATTHEW 16:27 IT SAYS, "FOR
THE SON OF MAN WILL COME IN THE
00:28:34.43\00:28:41.20
GLORY OF HIS FATHER WITH HIS
ANGELS, AND THEN HE WILL REWARD
00:28:41.20\00:28:45.66
EACH ACCORDING TO HIS WORKS."
SO WHILE THE MERCY - WHILE IN
00:28:45.66\00:28:53.73
MERCY CHRIST REWARDS THE
RIGHTEOUS ACCORDING TO THEIR
00:28:53.73\00:28:57.00
WORKS, IN JUSTICE HE ALSO
REWARDS THE WICKED ACCORDING TO
00:28:57.00\00:29:04.26
THEIR WORKS, RIGHT?
AS HE FINALLY BRINGS IN
00:29:04.26\00:29:08.26
EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS
AND HIS MERCY AND HIS GRACE, HE
00:29:08.26\00:29:13.23
FINALLY BRINGS EVIL TO AN END IN
THIS WORLD - THE PURPOSE OF HIS
00:29:13.23\00:29:18.53
JUSTICE - BOTH OF
THEM WORKING TOGETHER.
00:29:18.53\00:29:22.60
NOW, JUST CONCENTRATING A LITTLE
BIT ON THE LATTER HALF, GOD -
00:29:22.60\00:29:27.06
HIS JUST PURPOSES BEING
FULFILLED AT THE SECOND COMING.
00:29:27.06\00:29:31.40
AND WE KNOW, TECHNICALLY YES, WE
HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE END OF THE
00:29:31.40\00:29:34.63
MILLENNIUM AND THAT SECOND
RESURRECTION BEFORE IT'S ALL
00:29:34.63\00:29:37.90
FULLY GONE. BUT AS
FAR AS WE'RE CONCERNED,
00:29:37.90\00:29:40.53
AT THE SECOND COMING OF
JESUS WE'RE OFF THIS PLANET.
00:29:40.53\00:29:43.76
WE'RE DONE. OUR
TIMES OF TROUBLE ARE OVER.
00:29:43.76\00:29:46.26
PRAISE THE LORD.
THE SOONER THE BETTER.
00:29:46.26\00:29:49.33
BUT NONETHELESS, GOD HAS SET
BOUNDS BEYOND WHICH HE WILL NOT
00:29:49.33\00:29:55.53
PERMIT EVIL TO
CONTINUE ANY LONGER.
00:29:55.53\00:29:59.06
HE SAYS, 'THUS FAR
AND NO FURTHER.' LIKE THE
00:29:59.06\00:30:01.70
ANTEDILUVIANS, THERE CAME A TIME
WHEN GOD FINALLY SAID, 'ENOUGH!'
00:30:01.70\00:30:07.36
AND THAT WAS IT.
EVERYONE EXCEPT NOAH AND HIS
00:30:07.36\00:30:11.36
FAMILY WERE DESTROYED IN
THE FLOOD. LIKE THE SODOMITES
00:30:11.36\00:30:16.50
WHO REFUSED TO TURN FROM
THEIR SEXUAL PERVERSIONS.
00:30:16.50\00:30:21.40
THERE CAME A TIME WHEN
GOD FINALLY SAID, 'ENOUGH!"
00:30:21.40\00:30:26.00
AND THEY ALL PERISHED UNDER
A HAIL OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE.
00:30:26.00\00:30:32.93
IT DIDN'T HAVE
TO HAPPEN, YOU KNOW?
00:30:32.93\00:30:36.00
GOD PLEAD WITH
THOSE PEOPLE FOR YEARS.
00:30:36.00\00:30:39.20
WHEN ABRAHAM WENT FIRST INTO THE
PROMISED LAND AS A PREVIEW, IT
00:30:39.20\00:30:43.13
SAYS THE CUP OF
THE - WAS IT AMMONITES?
00:30:43.13\00:30:45.73
I THINK IT SAYS
IT WAS NOT YET FULL.
00:30:45.73\00:30:48.73
GOD GAVE THEM ANOTHER FORTY
SOMETHING - FOUR HUNDRED AND
00:30:48.73\00:30:51.06
SOMETHING YEARS. HIS
SPIRIT WAS STRIVING WITH
00:30:51.06\00:30:54.16
THESE PEOPLE BUT THEY STILL
CONTINUED TO BURN THEIR OWN
00:30:54.16\00:30:56.73
CHILDREN SO GOD SAID, 'ENOUGH!'
AND HE SENT HIS PEOPLE IN TO BE
00:30:56.73\00:31:01.53
HIS INSTRUMENTS OF
JUSTICE TO CLEAR THEM OUT.
00:31:01.53\00:31:05.23
GOD IS MERCIFUL BUT HE'S JUST.
00:31:05.23\00:31:09.70
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIS MERCY
BUT DON'T FLIRT WITH HIS JUSTICE
00:31:09.70\00:31:15.20
BECAUSE THERE'S A
HIGH PRICE TO PAY.
00:31:15.20\00:31:19.13
AND SO, IN LIKE MANNER, CHRIST'S
SECOND COMING - HE WILL STOP THE
00:31:19.13\00:31:24.70
MURDEROUS PURPOSES OF EVIL
- SATAN'S LAST-DITCH ATTEMPT -
00:31:24.70\00:31:30.73
WHEN HE WORKS THROUGH THE
GOVERNMENTS OF THE WORLD TO
00:31:30.73\00:31:33.50
FINALLY PASS A DEATH SENTENCE
UPON EVERY ONE OF GOD'S FAITHFUL
00:31:33.50\00:31:39.46
PEOPLE, TO WIPE THEM FROM
THE FACE OF THE PLANET AND IT'S
00:31:39.46\00:31:44.03
GOING TO LOOK LIKE SATAN IS
GOING TO SUCCEED AND AT THE LAST
00:31:44.03\00:31:46.83
MINUTE GOD IS
GOING TO SAY, 'ENOUGH!'
00:31:46.83\00:31:50.36
OH, IT THRILLS ME WHEN I
READ 'GREAT CONTROVERSY' - GOD'S
00:31:50.36\00:31:53.43
PEOPLE DELIVERED - I'M GETTING
OFF TRACK BUT I CAN'T HELP IT SO
00:31:53.43\00:31:56.10
I'M ON A ROLL HERE. YOU
SEE GOD'S PEOPLE IN THESE
00:31:56.10\00:31:58.53
LITTLE GROUPS AND
THEY'RE PRAYING, YOU KNOW?
00:31:58.53\00:32:00.33
YOU'VE READ IT MANY TIMES.
00:32:00.33\00:32:01.86
AND THERE'S THESE MURDEROUS
RABBLING MOBS COMING WITH THEIR
00:32:01.86\00:32:05.40
GUNS AND SWORDS AND THEY
THINK, 'WE'VE GOT YOU NOW!'
00:32:05.40\00:32:07.43
AND THEN SUDDENLY - WHOOSH -
THIS BLACKNESS DESCENDS ALL OVER
00:32:07.43\00:32:11.30
THE PLACE AND AROUND EACH
PRAYING BAND THERE'S A RAINBOW.
00:32:11.30\00:32:16.06
AND, YOU KNOW, RAINBOWS
NEVER SHINE AS BRIGHT AS THEY DO
00:32:16.06\00:32:20.86
AGAINST A BLACK SKY. AND
THIS MURDEROUS RABBLE THEY
00:32:20.86\00:32:26.06
JUST DROP THEIR SWORDS.
THEY DON'T KNOW QUITE WHAT IT
00:32:26.06\00:32:28.96
MEANS BUT THEY KNOW IT
DOESN'T PORTEND GOOD FOR THEM.
00:32:28.96\00:32:32.30
AND IT IS A SIGN THAT
GOD HAS DELIVERED HIS PEOPLE.
00:32:32.30\00:32:36.03
I WANT TO BE UNDER THAT
RAINBOW, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
00:32:36.03\00:32:39.16
OH YES, THAT IS THE TIME WHEN
GOD WILL FULFILL HIS PURPOSES OF
00:32:39.16\00:32:44.80
MERCY. LET'S ACCEPT HIS MERCY.
00:32:44.80\00:32:48.70
AND HE'LL ALSO FULFILL
HIS PURPOSES OF JUSTICE.
00:32:48.70\00:32:52.53
ACCEPT HIS MERCY BUT
DON'T FLIRT WITH HIS JUSTICE.
00:32:52.53\00:32:55.83
THERE'S A HIGH PRICE TO PAY.
00:32:55.83\00:32:59.80
AND JUST AT THAT TIME
GOD WILL SAY, 'ENOUGH!'
00:32:59.80\00:33:02.90
AND HE WILL DELIVER HIS PEOPLE
FROM THE SNATCH OF THE DEVIL AND
00:33:02.90\00:33:06.83
THOSE WHO HE SOUGHT TO
WORK HIS PURPOSES THROUGH.
00:33:06.83\00:33:10.70
REVELATION 19 - WE SHOULD
READ A VERSE HERE, SHOULDN'T WE?
00:33:10.70\00:33:13.93
REVELATION 19, VERSE 11, "NOW I
SAW HEAVEN OPENED, AND BEHOLD, A
00:33:13.93\00:33:18.60
WHITE HORSE; AND HE THAT SAT
UPON HIM WAS CALLED FAITHFUL AND
00:33:18.60\00:33:23.60
TRUE, AND IN RIGHTEOUSNESS
HE DOTH JUDGE AND MAKE WAR."
00:33:23.60\00:33:29.36
- AND VERSE 15 - SO HE COMES TO
DELIVER HIS PEOPLE - VERSE 15,
00:33:29.36\00:33:32.53
"AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH GOETH
A SHARP SWORD, THAT WITH IT HE
00:33:32.53\00:33:35.70
SHOULD SMITE THE NATIONS: AND
HE SHALL RULE THEM WITH A ROD OF
00:33:35.70\00:33:39.13
IRON: AND HE TREADETH THE
WINEPRESS OF THE FIERCENESS
00:33:39.13\00:33:42.13
AND WRATH OF ALMIGHTY GOD."
00:33:42.13\00:33:45.60
WHEW, SO IN TERRIBLE JUSTICE
IT BECOMES THE DAY OF THE
00:33:45.60\00:33:50.30
FIERCENESS OF THE WRATH OF
ALMIGHTY GOD FOR THE WICKED WHO
00:33:50.30\00:33:54.16
ARE DESTROYED BY THE GLORY
AND THE BRIGHTNESS OF JESUS'
00:33:54.16\00:33:57.53
COUNTENANCE AND YET IT BECOMES
A DAY OF INCREDIBLE JOY FOR HIS
00:33:57.53\00:34:05.73
FAITHFUL PEOPLE WHO ARE SNATCHED
FROM THE FIRE JUST AT THAT
00:34:05.73\00:34:10.80
INTENSE MOMENT.
BECAUSE TO THE RIGHTEOUS, THAT
00:34:10.80\00:34:16.40
FACE AND THAT GLORY OF JESUS IS
TO THEM - THEY JUST BASK IN THAT
00:34:16.40\00:34:22.73
GLORY OF HIS LOVE AND THE
SWEETNESS OF BEING DELIVERED.
00:34:22.73\00:34:27.93
SO IT'S A BIT LIKE THE CHILDREN
OF ISRAEL AND THE EGYPTIANS
00:34:27.93\00:34:32.10
THERE BY THE RED SEA THE
NIGHT BEFORE THE FINAL SHOWDOWN.
00:34:32.10\00:34:35.90
TO THE EGYPTIANS, THAT
CLOUD WAS A CLOUD OF DARKNESS,
00:34:35.90\00:34:38.86
BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT
SAME CLOUD, TO THE ISRAELITES,
00:34:38.86\00:34:42.03
IT WAS LIGHT AND IT WAS
GLORY AND IT WAS SUNSHINE.
00:34:42.03\00:34:45.33
MAKE SURE YOU'RE ON THE RIGHT
SIDE OF THE CLOUD AND MAKE SURE
00:34:45.33\00:34:48.13
YOU'RE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF
GOD'S MERCY AND THE RIGHT SIDE
00:34:48.13\00:34:50.53
OF GOD'S JUSTICE. AND,
ALSO IN THE LESSON, IT'S
00:34:50.53\00:34:56.63
BEEN - I'VE GOT TO MOVE FASTER
HERE - MATTHEW 16:27, "FOR THE
00:34:56.63\00:35:00.70
SON OF MAN SHALL COME IN
THE GLORY OF HIS FATHER WITH HIS
00:35:00.70\00:35:04.43
ANGELS; AND THEN HE SHALL REWARD
EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS
00:35:04.43\00:35:06.16
WORKS." IN THE
LESSON IT MAKES THE
00:35:06.16\00:35:07.86
POINT, OBVIOUSLY, THAT FOR HIM
TO GIVE REWARDS TO PEOPLE, THERE
00:35:07.86\00:35:11.80
MUST HAVE BEEN AN
INVESTIGATION FIRST.
00:35:11.80\00:35:14.43
YES WE BELIEVE, AS SEVENTH-DAY
ADVENTISTS, BEFORE JESUS COMES
00:35:14.43\00:35:18.76
THERE IS THE INVESTIGATIVE
JUDGMENT- THE PRE-ADVENT
00:35:18.76\00:35:21.80
JUDGMENT TO DETERMINE
WHO IS SAVED AND WHO IS LOST.
00:35:21.80\00:35:27.06
WELL, ACTUALLY, CORRECTLY
SPEAKING, ONLY THOSE WHO EVER
00:35:27.06\00:35:33.20
HAVE CLAIMED TO ACCEPT
JESUS EVER COME UP IN THE
00:35:33.20\00:35:35.60
INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT.
PEOPLE WHO'VE NEVER ACCEPTED
00:35:35.60\00:35:38.66
HIM, THEIR CASES
AREN'T EVEN LOOKED AT.
00:35:38.66\00:35:40.70
THEY'RE JUST LOST ANYWAY.
00:35:40.70\00:35:42.33
BUT IN THAT JUDGMENT, IT IS TO
DETERMINE WHO, AMONG PROFESSED
00:35:42.33\00:35:46.40
ISRAEL, IS
BEING FAITHFUL TO GOD?
00:35:46.40\00:35:50.10
AND THAT IS WHERE THE
REWARDS ARE DETERMINED.
00:35:50.10\00:35:54.06
AND JESUS, WHEN HE COMES BACK,
HE WILL DISPENSE THOSE REWARDS.
00:35:54.06\00:35:57.36
WE COULD STOP RIGHT HERE
AND DO A WHOLE SECTION ON THE
00:35:57.36\00:35:59.76
INVESTIGATIVE
JUDGMENT BUT I WON'T DO THAT.
00:35:59.76\00:36:02.63
I DON'T HAVE THE TIME AND,
HOPEFULLY, YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND
00:36:02.63\00:36:07.06
THAT ANYWAY. AND IF
YOU DON'T - IF YOU DON'T,
00:36:07.06\00:36:10.23
AMAZING FACTS ACTUALLY HAS TWO
LESSONS - I THINK IT'S #17 AND
00:36:10.23\00:36:12.90
#18 - ON THE INVESTIGATIVE
JUDGMENT - ONE ON THE SANCTUARY
00:36:12.90\00:36:17.60
- THE EARTHLY SANCTUARY IN THE
WILDERNESS AND THEN LESSON #18
00:36:17.60\00:36:21.46
IS A LESSON ON HOW THAT RELATES
TO THE HEAVENLY SANCTUARY AND
00:36:21.46\00:36:26.53
THE INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT.
00:36:26.53\00:36:28.40
AND IF YOU GO ON AMAZING
FACTS' WEBSITE - YOU GO ON
00:36:28.40\00:36:30.43
'BIBLEUNIVERSE.COM' YOU'LL FIND
ALL THE - I'M SPEAKING TO THE
00:36:30.43\00:36:33.50
PEOPLE ON CAMERA, WHO MAY BE
LOOKING IN FOR THE FIRST TIME.
00:36:33.50\00:36:36.40
IF YOU GO ON 'BIBLEUNIVERSE.COM'
YOU'LL FIND THERE - IT'S AN
00:36:36.40\00:36:40.50
AMAZING FACTS SITE - INFORMATION
ON ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING ABOUT
00:36:40.50\00:36:45.30
WHAT I'VE SPOKEN ABOUT
THIS MORNING AND OTHER THINGS
00:36:45.30\00:36:47.10
BESIDES. IT'S JUST A
TREASURE CHEST SO GO THERE.
00:36:47.10\00:36:50.40
LET'S MOVE ON TO
TUESDAY. HOW WILL JESUS COME?
00:36:50.40\00:36:54.43
MATTHEW 24 - MATTHEW CHAPTER
24, VERSES 23 THROUGH 27.
00:36:54.43\00:37:07.56
WE READ THE FOLLOWING: "THEN IF
ANY MAN SHALL SAY UNTO YOU, LO,
00:37:07.56\00:37:15.00
HERE IS CHRIST, OR THERE;"
- JESUS SAID, "BELIEVE IT NOT.
00:37:15.00\00:37:21.80
FOR THERE SHALL ARISE FALSE
CHRISTS, AND FALSE PROPHETS, AND
00:37:21.80\00:37:26.76
SHALL SHEW GREAT SIGNS AND
WONDERS; INSOMUCH THAT, IF IT
00:37:26.76\00:37:30.66
WERE POSSIBLE, THEY
SHALL DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT."
00:37:30.66\00:37:35.56
AND THEN HE SAYS,
"BEHOLD, I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFORE.
00:37:35.56\00:37:38.90
WHEREFORE IF THEY SHALL SAY
UNTO YOU, BEHOLD, HE IS IN THE
00:37:38.90\00:37:41.96
DESERT; GO NOT FORTH:
BEHOLD, HE IS IN THE SECRET
00:37:41.96\00:37:46.03
CHAMBERS; BELIEVE IT NOT.
00:37:46.03\00:37:48.76
FOR AS THE LIGHTNING COMETH OUT
OF THE EAST, AND SHINETH EVEN
00:37:48.76\00:37:51.26
UNTO THE WEST; SO SHALL ALSO THE
COMING OF THE SON OF MAN BE."
00:37:51.26\00:37:57.40
IN HIS WORD, JESUS HAS GIVEN
A VERY CLEAR DESCRIPTION OF HIS
00:37:57.40\00:38:02.70
SECOND COMING - THE NATURE OF IT
- HOW IT'S GOING TO TAKE PLACE -
00:38:02.70\00:38:07.36
IN WHAT WAY HE
WILL RETURN TO EARTH.
00:38:07.36\00:38:10.30
AND IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE
UNDERSTAND THIS SO THAT WE'RE
00:38:10.30\00:38:13.96
NOT FOOLED. I
THINK YOU SHOULD ALL KNOW
00:38:13.96\00:38:18.06
THIS, BUT SOME OF YOU MAY
NOT. IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE
00:38:18.06\00:38:21.06
UNDERSTAND HOW
HE'S GOING TO COME BACK.
00:38:21.06\00:38:24.66
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THIS
SO WE'RE NOT FOOLED BY SATAN'S
00:38:24.66\00:38:28.43
MASTERFUL ATTEMPT TO PRE-EMPT
THE TRUE SECOND COMING OF JESUS
00:38:28.43\00:38:36.50
WITH A DECEPTIVE COUNTERFEIT
JUST BEFORE THE VERY END.
00:38:36.50\00:38:41.66
HE'S GOT A PURPOSE IN THAT.
00:38:41.66\00:38:43.23
HE'S GOING TO PRETEND TO BE
JESUS AND SAY THAT, YOU KNOW,
00:38:43.23\00:38:47.93
HE'S CHANGED THE SABBATH FROM
THE SEVENTH DAY TO THE FIRST DAY
00:38:47.93\00:38:51.13
AND IT'S JUST A
WHOLE BIG DECEPTION.
00:38:51.13\00:38:52.76
AND GAZILLIONS OF CHRISTIANS ARE
ACTUALLY GOING TO FALL FOR THAT.
00:38:52.76\00:38:57.23
BUT IN MATTHEW 24:26 JESUS
WARNED, "WHEREFORE IF THEY SHALL
00:38:57.23\00:39:02.00
SAY UNTO YOU, BEHOLD, HE IS
IN THE DESERT; GO NOT FORTH:
00:39:02.00\00:39:07.83
BEHOLD, HE IS IN THE SECRET
CHAMBERS; BELIEVE IT NOT."
00:39:07.83\00:39:11.36
HERE, JESUS MAKES CLEAR THAT
SATAN'S COUNTERFEIT WILL CONSIST
00:39:11.36\00:39:15.63
OF HIM, THAT IS SATAN, APPEAR
IN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS UPON THE
00:39:15.63\00:39:20.00
PLANET AT DIFFERENT TIMES.
NOW, REGARDLESS OF HOW CLEVER
00:39:20.00\00:39:26.10
SATAN MAY BE IN IMPERSONATING
CHRIST AND - ACTUALLY, IN
00:39:26.10\00:39:31.73
'GREAT CONTROVERSY' THE TERM
'PERSONATING CHRIST' IS USED.
00:39:31.73\00:39:37.70
THERE ARE SOME - I DON'T WATCH
THEM NOW, BUT I REMEMBER YEARS
00:39:37.70\00:39:40.93
AGO I USED TO WATCH
THESE IMPERSONATORS.
00:39:40.93\00:39:43.13
AND YOU CAN TELL THAT IT'S JOE
SMITH, YOU KNOW, IT'S JOE SMITH?
00:39:43.13\00:39:46.23
BUT HE'S VERY GOOD AT DOING AN
IMPERSONATION OF THE PRESIDENT.
00:39:46.23\00:39:49.36
SO YOU GO, 'OH WELL, THIS IS JOE
SMITH BUT BOY HE CAN REALLY LOOK
00:39:49.36\00:39:52.13
LIKE THE PRESIDENT AND SOUND
LIKE THE PRESIDENT.' HE'S REALLY
00:39:52.13\00:39:54.46
GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES, BUT
I KNOW IT'S JOE SMITH, RIGHT?
00:39:54.46\00:39:57.83
SATAN IS NOT JUST
SOME EARTHLY ENTERTAINER.
00:39:57.83\00:40:01.56
HE ACTUALLY PERSONATES CHRIST.
HE LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HIM.
00:40:01.56\00:40:07.50
HE SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE HIM
AS FAR AS WE WILL UNDERSTAND.
00:40:07.50\00:40:13.73
HIS VOICE WILL BE SWEET AND
MELODIOUS AND HE WILL QUOTE FROM
00:40:13.73\00:40:19.13
SCRIPTURE THE WORD OF GOD.
BUT HE'LL QUOTE THOSE VERSES
00:40:19.13\00:40:22.76
THAT SUIT HIS PURPOSES.
HE'LL MAKE PEOPLE SICK - WE
00:40:22.76\00:40:26.06
WON'T KNOW HE'S MADE PEOPLE SICK
BUT THEY'LL APPEAR AS SICK AND
00:40:26.06\00:40:28.63
HE'LL COME AND HE'LL TOUCH
THEM AND THEY'LL BE HEALED.
00:40:28.63\00:40:30.76
AND HE'LL KISS THE BABIES AND
BLESS THEM AND PUT THEM IN THEIR
00:40:30.76\00:40:33.10
MOTHER'S ARMS AND THEIR MOTHERS
WILL SAY, 'OH, JESUS, HE WAS SO
00:40:33.10\00:40:36.53
WONDERFUL.' AND THEN EVERYBODY
WILL WORSHIP HIM AND HE WILL SAY
00:40:36.53\00:40:40.76
- THE GREAT IMPOSTER - HE'LL
DO HIS PUNCH LINE ABOUT, 'OH, BY
00:40:40.76\00:40:45.70
THE WAY, MY DEAR CHILDREN, I
DO WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT I
00:40:45.70\00:40:50.16
HAVE TRANSFERRED THE SOLEMNITY
FROM THE SEVENTH-DAY SABBATH IN
00:40:50.16\00:40:54.06
THE SCRIPTURES - YES IT'S IN THE
SCRIPTURES, BUT I AM THE LIVING
00:40:54.06\00:40:57.13
WORD. I HAVE CHANGED THE WORD.
00:40:57.13\00:40:59.46
IT IS NOW THE FIRST DAY OF THE
WEEK.' AND EVERYBODY'S GOING TO
00:40:59.46\00:41:02.40
SWALLOW IT, BUT THERE'S GOING TO
BE A LITTLE GROUP THAT WILL LOOK
00:41:02.40\00:41:05.00
AT THIS BEING AND SAY, 'THAT'S
NOT JESUS, THAT'S THE DEVIL!'
00:41:05.00\00:41:12.56
NOT GOING TO BE
VERY POPULAR, ARE THEY?
00:41:12.56\00:41:15.30
BUT THEY WILL SPEAK
THE TRUTH NONETHELESS.
00:41:15.30\00:41:18.30
BUT HE'S GOING TO BE SO
GOOD, YOU SEE, AT WHAT HE DOES.
00:41:18.30\00:41:23.26
AND SO THE ONLY WAY THAT WE
CAN UNDERSTAND - OR ANYBODY CAN
00:41:23.26\00:41:27.76
UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S
NOT JESUS, IT'S TWO THINGS.
00:41:27.76\00:41:32.06
AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE.
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE, RIGHT?
00:41:32.06\00:41:35.50
WE JUST READ IT IN
MATTHEW 27 - SORRY, MATTHEW 24.
00:41:35.50\00:41:40.06
HE SAYS, "FOR AS THE LIGHTNING
COMETH OUT OF THE EAST, AND
00:41:40.06\00:41:42.63
SHINETH EVEN UNTO THE WEST;
SO SHALL ALSO THE COMING OF
00:41:42.63\00:41:45.93
THE SON OF MAN BE."
00:41:45.93\00:41:47.30
WHEN JESUS COMES - REVELATION
1:7 AS WELL - WHEN HE COMES,
00:41:47.30\00:41:50.56
EVERY EYE SHALL SEE HIM.
EVERYBODY ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
00:41:50.56\00:41:55.90
AND IF YOU EVEN CLOSE YOUR EYES
AND CLOSE THEM TIGHT - HAVE YOU
00:41:55.90\00:41:58.80
EVER WALKED OUT IN A
THUNDERSTORM OR YOU'VE LOOKED
00:41:58.80\00:42:01.10
TOWARD WHERE THE THUNDER'S
COMING? YOU CLENCH YOUR EYES.
00:42:01.10\00:42:03.93
YOU STILL KNOW
WHEN IT FLASHES, RIGHT?
00:42:03.93\00:42:05.76
'CAUSE YOU SEE THE LIGHT
EVEN PENETRATES YOUR EYELIDS.
00:42:05.76\00:42:08.76
SO NOBODY IS GOING TO
MISS SEEING HIM WHEN HE COMES.
00:42:08.76\00:42:11.83
SO THIS WILL TELL US, 'THIS IS
AN IMPOSTER.' 'WELL, WE SAW HIM
00:42:11.83\00:42:15.20
YESTERDAY. HE WAS DOWN AT -
HE WAS DOWN AT CAPITAL PARK.
00:42:15.20\00:42:18.43
NOW THIS AFTERNOON HE'S OVER
IN RENO.' OR 'TOMORROW WE HEARD
00:42:18.43\00:42:22.20
THAT HE'S GOING TO BE IN
NEW YORK.' THAT'S NOT JESUS.
00:42:22.20\00:42:24.80
THAT'S THE DEVIL.
EVERYBODY WILL SEE HIM COME.
00:42:24.80\00:42:32.26
AND THE SECOND POINT IS -
IN 1 THESSALONIANS 4:16 AND 17.
00:42:32.26\00:42:36.26
I'M GOING TO MOVE FAST HERE.
YOU KNOW, WE USE THIS - WE READ
00:42:36.26\00:42:39.56
THIS A LOT AT FUNERALS BECAUSE
IT'S SPEAKING OF THE BLESSED
00:42:39.56\00:42:44.40
HOPE AND I'VE HAD THE PRIVILEGE
OF SPEAKING THESE WORDS TO
00:42:44.40\00:42:52.36
FAMILIES OF SAINTS - BEING
ABLE TO READ THESE WORDS WITH
00:42:52.36\00:42:56.40
ASSURANCE THAT THEY WOULD
SEE THEIR LOVED ONE AGAIN.
00:42:56.40\00:43:00.06
1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 4, VERSE
16, "FOR THE LORD HIMSELF SHALL
00:43:00.06\00:43:06.96
DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WITH A
SHOUT, WITH THE VOICE OF THE
00:43:06.96\00:43:10.83
ARCHANGEL, AND WITH THE TRUMP
OF GOD: AND THE DEAD IN CHRIST
00:43:10.83\00:43:13.43
SHALL RISE FIRST: THEN WE WHICH
ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN SHALL BE
00:43:13.43\00:43:18.26
CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN
THE CLOUDS, TO MEET THE LORD IN
00:43:18.26\00:43:21.23
THE AIR: AND SO SHALL
WE EVER BE WITH THE LORD."
00:43:21.23\00:43:23.73
SO DOES HE TOUCH THE
EARTH? NO, HE DOESN'T. YOU SEE?
00:43:23.73\00:43:26.43
SO EVERYBODY SEES HIM COME
ALL AT THE SAME TIME AND NEITHER
00:43:26.43\00:43:29.16
DOES HE WALK
AROUND ON THE EARTH.
00:43:29.16\00:43:30.80
SO THOSE ARE
THE TWO MAIN THINGS.
00:43:30.80\00:43:32.50
WE CAN KNOW - WE CAN
DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE TRUE
00:43:32.50\00:43:35.70
SECOND COMING OF JESUS
AND SATAN'S PREPOSTEROUS
00:43:35.70\00:43:42.33
COUNTERFEITS. OH,
THERE'S - IN - BECAUSE IT
00:43:42.33\00:43:48.36
SPEAKS OF THE DEAD BEING
RAISED AND SATAN CAN'T DO THAT.
00:43:48.36\00:43:51.66
AND, OF COURSE, THE VOICE OF THE
ARCHANGEL AND THE TRUMPET OF GOD
00:43:51.66\00:43:56.36
AND - REVELATION 6:14 -
THERE'S A GREAT EARTHQUAKE.
00:43:56.36\00:44:00.23
OH, THIS EARTH IS GOING TO -
GOING TO BE FALLING TO PIECES
00:44:00.23\00:44:03.86
WHEN JESUS COMES IN
THE CLOUDS OF GLORY.
00:44:03.86\00:44:06.53
REVELATION 16:20 AND 21 IT SAYS,
"AND EVERY ISLAND FLED AWAY, AND
00:44:06.53\00:44:11.86
THE MOUNTAINS WERE NOT FOUND.
AND THERE FELL UPON MEN A GREAT
00:44:11.86\00:44:14.76
HAIL OUT OF HEAVEN, EVERY STONE
ABOUT THE WEIGHT OF A TALENT:" -
00:44:14.76\00:44:18.43
SO WHEN JESUS COMES - THE
PLAGUES - THE SEVENTH LAST
00:44:18.43\00:44:21.50
PLAGUE IS ALSO
COMING DOWN AS WELL.
00:44:21.50\00:44:23.70
SO THERE IS A GREAT - THERE'S
LIGHT YEARS' DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
00:44:23.70\00:44:27.90
THE DESCRIPTION IN SCRIPTURE
DESCRIBING HOW JESUS WILL COME,
00:44:27.90\00:44:34.80
CONTRASTED BETWEEN THE FALSE
REPRESENTATION THAT SATAN IS
00:44:34.80\00:44:38.53
GOING TO SEEK TO PALM
OFF BEFORE THE REAL THING.
00:44:38.53\00:44:41.93
BUT I WANT TO CONCLUDE THIS
SECTION BY SAYING A LITTLE BIT
00:44:41.93\00:44:45.10
ABOUT ALL THE GLORY. ALL
THE GLORY THAT'S GOING TO BE
00:44:45.10\00:44:50.03
FLASHING AROUND AT THAT TIME.
MATTHEW 24 - AND THAT IS THE
00:44:50.03\00:44:56.13
GLORY OF JESUS AND
THE GLORY OF THE ANGELS.
00:44:56.13\00:44:59.93
MATTHEW 24:30, "AND THEN SHALL
APPEAR THE SIGN OF THE SON OF
00:44:59.93\00:45:06.53
MAN IN HEAVEN: AND THEN SHALL
ALL THE TRIBES OF THE EARTH
00:45:06.53\00:45:10.96
MOURN," - THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN
DECEIVED BY THE DEVIL OR JUST
00:45:10.96\00:45:15.16
BLATANTLY REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE
GIFT OF SALVATION - "AND THEN
00:45:15.16\00:45:20.23
SHALL ALL THE TRIBES OF THE
EARTH MOURN, AND THEY SHALL SEE
00:45:20.23\00:45:22.60
THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE
CLOUDS OF HEAVEN WITH POWER AND
00:45:22.60\00:45:27.60
GREAT GLORY." IN
REVELATION 19:12 IT SPEAKS OF
00:45:27.60\00:45:33.60
JESUS WHEN HE'S COMING,
'HIS EYES WERE AFLAME' - AFIRE.
00:45:33.60\00:45:38.70
I WANT TO READ FROM THAT BOOK
THERE, MIKE, IF YOU COULD PASS
00:45:38.70\00:45:41.63
IT TO ME. THANK
YOU. THE GLORY OF THIS -
00:45:41.63\00:45:46.96
OF THIS MOMENT -
'GREAT CONTROVERSY' PAGE 641,
00:45:46.96\00:45:56.66
END OF THE FIRST PARAGRAPH
AND JUST PARTWAY THROUGH THE
00:45:56.66\00:45:59.93
SECOND. IT'S NOT
TOO LONG BUT IT'S
00:45:59.93\00:46:02.13
GLORIOUS SO I WANT
TO SHARE IT WITH YOU.
00:46:02.13\00:46:04.80
SPEAKING OF JESUS IT SAYS, "NO
CROWN OF THORNS NOW MARS THAT
00:46:04.80\00:46:10.30
SACRED HEAD; BUT A DIADEM OF
GLORY RESTS ON HIS HOLY BROW.
00:46:10.30\00:46:16.73
HIS COUNTENANCE OUTSHINES
THE DAZZLING BRIGHTNESS OF THE
00:46:16.73\00:46:21.46
NOONDAY SUN AND HE HATH ON HIS
VESTURE AND ON HIS THIGH A NAME
00:46:21.46\00:46:25.93
WRITTEN, 'KING OF KINGS AND LORD
OF LORDS.' BEFORE HIS PRESENCE
00:46:25.93\00:46:32.40
ALL FACES ARE
TURNED INTO PALENESS.
00:46:32.40\00:46:36.43
UPON THE REJECTERS OF
GOD'S MERCY FALLS THE TERROR OF
00:46:36.43\00:46:40.16
ETERNAL DESPAIR." THIS
IS FROM NAHUM AND JEREMIAH
00:46:40.16\00:46:44.86
- "THE HEART MELTETH AND
THE KNEES SMITE TOGETHER AND THE
00:46:44.86\00:46:48.23
FACES OF THEM
ALL GATHER BLACKNESS.
00:46:48.23\00:46:51.43
THE RIGHTEOUS - EVEN THE
RIGHTEOUS CRY WITH TREMBLING,
00:46:51.43\00:46:54.60
'WHO SHALL BE ABLE TO STAND?'"
NOW, LET'S PAUSE A MINUTE
00:46:54.60\00:46:59.03
HERE. EVEN THE
RIGHTEOUS CRY OUT, 'WHO
00:46:59.03\00:47:05.03
SHALL BE ABLE TO
STAND?' LET'S REMEMBER THIS.
00:47:05.03\00:47:08.93
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME SINCE
THE FALL THAT HUMAN BEINGS HAVE
00:47:08.93\00:47:17.16
BEHELD THE FULL GLORY OF DEITY.
WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT THAT.
00:47:17.16\00:47:23.73
WE'VE HAD 4,000 YEARS TO KIND
OF IMAGINE WHAT IT'S LIKE, YOU
00:47:23.73\00:47:27.40
KNOW, THINK WHAT
IT MIGHT BE LIKE.
00:47:27.40\00:47:29.83
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE
FALL THAT HUMAN BEINGS HAVE SEEN
00:47:29.83\00:47:35.10
THE FULL GLORY
UNDIMMED AND UNVEILED OF DEITY.
00:47:35.10\00:47:41.50
AND THAT'S WHY, EVEN FOR
THE RIGHTEOUS, EVEN THEY CRY OUT
00:47:41.50\00:47:48.76
WITH TREMBLING, 'WHO SHALL
BE ABLE TO STAND?' YOU SEE,
00:47:48.76\00:47:57.46
WE NEED DEEPER VIEWS OF GOD -
OF HIS HOLINESS, OF HIS MAJESTY.
00:47:57.46\00:48:10.13
THERE'S A SONG AND I MENTIONED
THIS A YEAR AGO IN A SERMON.
00:48:10.13\00:48:13.70
THERE'S A SONG - VERY NICE
SONG - IT SAYS, 'WE SHALL BEHOLD
00:48:13.70\00:48:17.60
HIM.' HAVE YOU
EVER HEARD THAT SONG?
00:48:17.60\00:48:19.50
BEAUTIFUL SONG. WE
SHALL BEHOLD HIM - AND IT
00:48:19.50\00:48:27.03
SPEAKS OF THE BEAUTY OF
JESUS AND WHEN HE COMES.
00:48:27.03\00:48:31.96
AND THERE ARE A LOT
OF CHRISTIANS - PROFESSED
00:48:31.96\00:48:36.30
CHRISTIANS TODAY WHO HAVE
LISTENED TO THAT SONG, WHO SING
00:48:36.30\00:48:41.50
THAT SONG, AND THEY'RE
JUST WRAPPED IN JOYOUS RAPTURE.
00:48:41.50\00:48:48.30
'OH, I'M GOING TO SEE JESUS.'
BUT HERE'S THE THING: THEY'RE
00:48:48.30\00:48:56.66
LIVING WITH A GOSPEL
THAT TELLS THEM, 'IT'S OKAY.
00:48:56.66\00:49:02.50
THE LAW'S BEEN DONE
AWAY WITH. JESUS LOVES YOU.
00:49:02.50\00:49:06.76
JUST AS YOU ARE.'
OF COURSE HE LOVES YOU.
00:49:06.76\00:49:09.83
BUT YOU GET THE
POINT I'M MAKING HERE.
00:49:09.83\00:49:12.76
THEY'RE LIVING THIS LIFE
OF PRESUMPTUOUS DISOBEDIENCE
00:49:12.76\00:49:17.46
AGAINST THE LAW OF GOD. WE
NEED TO ACCEPT GOD'S MERCY,
00:49:17.46\00:49:27.06
GLADLY, BUT WE DON'T WANT TO
FLIRT WITH HIS JUSTICE, RIGHT?
00:49:27.06\00:49:33.10
BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
AND THEY DON'T REALIZE IT.
00:49:33.10\00:49:38.10
BUT IF THEY'RE HONEST IN HEART
THEY'LL HEAR A MESSAGE BEFORE
00:49:38.10\00:49:40.93
THE END THAT WILL TURN
THEM AROUND AND THEY'LL REALIZE,
00:49:40.93\00:49:45.76
'LORD, I'VE BEEN PRESUMPTUOUS.
FORGIVE ME.' IT SAYS, "ALL FACES
00:49:45.76\00:49:51.23
ARE TURNED INTO PALENESS.
UPON THE REJECTERS OF GOD'S
00:49:51.23\00:49:56.06
MERCY FALLS A
TERROR OF ETERNAL DESPAIR.
00:49:56.06\00:49:59.00
THE HEART MELTETH. THE
KNEES SMITE TOGETHER AND THE
00:49:59.00\00:50:02.30
FACES OF THEM
ALL GATHER BLACKNESS.
00:50:02.30\00:50:04.50
EVEN THE RIGHTEOUS CRY WITH
TREMBLING, 'WHO SHALL BE ABLE TO
00:50:04.50\00:50:09.00
STAND?'" WOO,
BELOVED, SO WE - YOU AND
00:50:09.00\00:50:18.10
ME - WE'VE GOT SOME
HEART SEARCHING TO DO, RIGHT?
00:50:18.10\00:50:23.53
TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN REALLY
SING THAT SONG WHEN HE COMES.
00:50:23.53\00:50:29.20
TO BE ABLE TO STAND IN THAT
GLORY AND NOT BE CONSUMED OR TO
00:50:29.20\00:50:33.96
BE THE PRESUMPTUOUS ONES AND
THEY'RE WAITING FOR HIM COMING
00:50:33.96\00:50:37.30
AND THEY'RE SINGING THAT SONG
AND WHEN THEY SEE THAT GLORY
00:50:37.30\00:50:39.50
THEY REALIZE THEY'RE ALL UNDONE
AND IN TERROR THEY FLEE AWAY
00:50:39.50\00:50:42.16
BECAUSE THEY CAN'T BEAR TO LOOK
UPON THAT FACE WHICH IS AS A
00:50:42.16\00:50:45.50
FLAMING FIRE. AND
THE DEVIL IS SO GOOD AT
00:50:45.50\00:50:49.53
DECEIVING PEOPLE SO THAT SO
MANY AT THAT TIME WILL NOT BE
00:50:49.53\00:50:54.06
PREPARED. DON'T
BE AMONG THEM, RIGHT?
00:50:54.06\00:51:01.30
SO TO THOSE, THAT FACE IS A
FLAMING FIRE - THAT COUNTENANCE
00:51:01.30\00:51:05.73
- THEY HAVE TO FLEE FROM
IT. BUT LET'S GET BACK TO THE
00:51:05.73\00:51:08.86
RIGHTEOUS, OKAY?
"EVEN THE RIGHTEOUS CRY WITH
00:51:08.86\00:51:13.80
TREMBLING, 'WHO
SHALL BE ABLE TO STAND?"
00:51:13.80\00:51:16.13
- I'LL READ THE REST
OF THE STATEMENT NOW.
00:51:16.13\00:51:19.23
"EVEN THE RIGHTEOUS CRY,
'WHO SHALL BE ABLE TO STAND?'
00:51:19.23\00:51:22.10
THE ANGELS' SONG IS HUSHED."
- IT'S QUIET AND THERE IS A
00:51:22.10\00:51:27.40
PERIOD OF AWFUL SILENCE AND EVEN
THE RIGHTEOUS, THEY'RE LOOKING
00:51:27.40\00:51:33.66
AT DEITY FOR THE FIRST TIME.
THEN THE VOICE OF JESUS IS HEARD
00:51:33.66\00:51:41.46
SAYING, "MY GRACE
IS SUFFICIENT FOR YOU."
00:51:41.46\00:51:49.06
PRECIOUS JESUS. "MY
GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR YOU.
00:51:49.06\00:51:55.16
THE FACES OF THE RIGHTEOUS ARE
LIGHTED UP AND JOY FILLS EVERY
00:51:55.16\00:52:00.40
HEART AND THE ANGELS STRIKE
A NOTE HIGHER AND SING AGAIN AS
00:52:00.40\00:52:06.10
THEY DRAW STILL NEARER TO
THE EARTH." OH, PRAISE GOD.
00:52:06.10\00:52:11.70
SO WON'T YOU
JUST BE SO THANKFUL?
00:52:11.70\00:52:14.13
WON'T YOU JUST BE SO GLAD WHEN -
IN THAT MOMENT OF AWFUL SILENCE,
00:52:14.13\00:52:18.33
WHEN YOU MAYBE START SECOND
GUESSING AND YOU THOUGHT - YOUR
00:52:18.33\00:52:21.20
LIFE IS RACING
BEHIND AND YOU THINK,
00:52:21.20\00:52:23.40
'LORD, HAVE I
REALLY GIVEN YOU MY HEART?
00:52:23.40\00:52:25.40
HAVE I BEEN PRESUMPTUOUS
AND YOU STAND THERE AND HE LOOKS
00:52:25.40\00:52:27.83
AT YOU AND HE SAYS - AND
YOU KNOW HE'S LOOKING AT YOU.
00:52:27.83\00:52:32.83
AND THE WICKED KNOW
HE'S LOOKING AT THEM.
00:52:32.83\00:52:35.43
AND HE'S LOOKING AT YOU
AND YOU'VE BEEN FAITHFUL.
00:52:35.43\00:52:37.50
YOU HAVEN'T BEEN PERFECT. YOU'RE
JUST A FALLEN HUMAN BEING.
00:52:37.50\00:52:40.23
BUT IN YOUR
WEAKNESS YOU'VE CLUNG TO HIM.
00:52:40.23\00:52:42.30
YOU'VE CLUNG TO HIM LIKE
JACOB IN HIS TIME OF TROUBLE AND
00:52:42.30\00:52:44.86
YOU'VE SAID,'LORD, I WILL
NOT LET YOU GO LEST YE BLESS ME.
00:52:44.86\00:52:47.76
I'M A WEAK CREATURE,
LORD. I STUMBLE AT THIS.
00:52:47.76\00:52:50.03
I STUMBLE AT THAT, BUT I BELIEVE
IN YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS AND IF I
00:52:50.03\00:52:52.83
CLING TO YOU,
YOU'LL MAKE ME A VICTOR.
00:52:52.83\00:52:54.80
YOU'LL MAKE ME A
VICTOR.' AND HE WILL.
00:52:54.80\00:52:57.16
AND IN THAT MOMENT YOU'LL BE SO
GLAD AND YOU'LL HEAR HIS VOICE
00:52:57.16\00:53:00.20
SAY - HE'LL LOOK AT YOU AND
HE'LL SAY, 'MICHAEL, MY GRACE IS
00:53:00.20\00:53:04.53
SUFFICIENT FOR YOU, SON.' AND
MICHAEL'S KNEES MAY HAVE BEEN
00:53:04.53\00:53:08.63
TREMBLING, BUT
THEY'LL BE STRONG NOW.
00:53:08.63\00:53:11.36
AND HIS FACE MAY HAVE TURNED TO
BLACKNESS, BUT THERE'S GOING TO
00:53:11.36\00:53:14.46
BE A JOYFUL SMILE BREAK
OUT ON HIS FACE AND HE'LL SAY,
00:53:14.46\00:53:18.86
'OH, JESUS,
THROUGH YOU I MADE IT!
00:53:18.86\00:53:22.26
PRAISE THE LORD!'
WHAT A MOMENT OF JOY.
00:53:22.26\00:53:25.06
YOU KNOW, I'M GOING
TO BE DELIRIOUS WITH JOY.
00:53:25.06\00:53:29.63
I'M GOING TO BE DELIRIOUS - WHEN
I WAS A KID AND IT WAS CHRISTMAS
00:53:29.63\00:53:32.30
MY - I USED TO DO THE CHRISTMAS
THING WHEN I WAS A KID.
00:53:32.30\00:53:35.60
I'D GO TO BED, YOU KNOW, AND MY
UNCLE WOULD COME UPSTAIRS WITH
00:53:35.60\00:53:40.40
SOME RED THING OVER HIS HEAD AND
I'D BE LAYING IN BED LIKE THIS
00:53:40.40\00:53:42.96
AND MY MOM WOULD SAY,
'DON'T LOOK. DON'T LOOK.
00:53:42.96\00:53:44.90
IT'S SANTA CLAUS.' SO
MY EYES WOULD BE LIKE THIS.
00:53:44.90\00:53:47.36
THEN HE - THEY'D
LEAD HIM DOWNSTAIRS.
00:53:47.36\00:53:49.10
HE'D GO OUT THE FRONT DOOR.
00:53:49.10\00:53:50.43
THEN MY MOTHER WOULD SAY, 'OKAY
SON, YOU CAN GET UP NOW.' SO I'D
00:53:50.43\00:53:52.90
GO DOWNSTAIRS AND SHE SAID - I
WAS A LITTLE TINY KID - SHE SAID
00:53:52.90\00:53:56.70
I WAS RIPPING OPEN PRESENTS AND
SHE SAID, 'YOU WERE SHAKING WITH
00:53:56.70\00:53:59.66
EXCITEMENT.' THE TIME - MY MOM
DELIGHTED TO TELL ME THAT STORY.
00:53:59.66\00:54:03.93
SHE SAID, 'YOUR LITTLE HANDS,
THEY WERE JUST SHAKING WITH
00:54:03.93\00:54:06.73
EXCITEMENT.' DELIRIOUS WITH JOY.
00:54:06.73\00:54:11.60
WELL, THAT DAY IS GOING TO
BE WORTH MORE THAN TEN BILLION
00:54:11.60\00:54:17.56
CHRISTMASES FOR A LITTLE
KID THAT'S RIPPING OPEN THE BEST
00:54:17.56\00:54:21.43
PRESENTS HE'S EVER HAD.
OH, DO YOU WANT TO BE THERE?
00:54:21.43\00:54:26.06
YOU CAN. YOU CAN. YOU CAN.
00:54:26.06\00:54:29.93
NOT IN YOUR OWN
STRENGTH, BUT IN JESUS.
00:54:29.93\00:54:33.00
SO IF YOU'RE STRUGGLING,
SOMEBODY HERE OR SOMEBODY OUT
00:54:33.00\00:54:35.20
THERE IN CYBERSPACE, IF
YOU'RE STRUGGLING, GO TO JESUS.
00:54:35.20\00:54:38.93
HE'S GOT IT ALL FIGURED
OUT. HE'S WALKED IN YOUR SHOES.
00:54:38.93\00:54:43.13
AND WHEN HE COMES HE'S GOING TO
TAKE YOU AND HE'S GOING TO TAKE
00:54:43.13\00:54:46.56
YOU HOME AND YOU CAN
LIVE WITH HIM FOREVER.
00:54:46.56\00:54:50.10
AND THE TRIALS AND THE
DIFFICULTIES THAT WE GET IN THIS
00:54:50.10\00:54:54.20
LIFE. AND MAYBE
PERSECUTION FROM YOUR
00:54:54.20\00:54:56.70
SPOUSE BECAUSE
YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN.
00:54:56.70\00:54:58.43
OR MAYBE AT WORK OR WHATEVER
ELSE AND WHATEVER IS TO COME.
00:54:58.43\00:55:01.33
WHEN WE GET TO
HEAVEN WE'RE GOING TO SAY
00:55:01.33\00:55:03.20
HEAVEN'S CHEAP
ENOUGH AT ANY PRICE.
00:55:03.20\00:55:05.76
ALL WE HAVE LEFT, FRIENDS, IS A
FEW SHORT DAYS UPON THIS PLANET.
00:55:05.76\00:55:10.70
JUST A FEW SHORT DAYS LEFT
SO LET HIM HAVE YOUR HEART AND
00:55:10.70\00:55:16.60
HE'LL DO EVERYTHING HE NEEDS
TO DO AND YOU WILL BE THERE WITH
00:55:16.60\00:55:19.73
HIM AND WE'LL BE
THERE TOGETHER, RIGHT?
00:55:19.73\00:55:22.16
IT DOES SAY - I'M GOING TO SKIP
WEDNESDAY BECAUSE WE KIND OF
00:55:22.16\00:55:24.90
ANSWERED THE QUESTION, SOMEWHAT,
'WHEN WILL JESUS COME?'
00:55:24.90\00:55:27.76
WHEN THE CHARACTER OF
CHRIST IS PERFECTLY REPRODUCED.
00:55:27.76\00:55:30.50
THAT'S TAKEN CARE OF.
00:55:30.50\00:55:32.43
BUT IT SAYS, 'WATCH AND BE
READY' IN THURSDAY'S SECTION.
00:55:32.43\00:55:38.26
JESUS HAS GIVEN US ALL A WORK TO
DO BUT, YOU KNOW, THAT WORK IS
00:55:38.26\00:55:44.23
WORKING FOR OTHERS IN OUR
PERSONAL WORK, OUR RELATIONSHIP
00:55:44.23\00:55:47.46
WITH HIM,
BUILDING A RELATIONSHIP.
00:55:47.46\00:55:50.33
BUT IT'S EASY
FOR US TO SLACK OFF.
00:55:50.33\00:55:52.96
LET ME READ YOU THIS FROM
'ACTS OF THE APOSTLES' PAGE 565,
00:55:52.96\00:55:56.56
"THERE ARE THOSE WHO, FOR
A TIME, ARE SUCCESSFUL IN THE
00:55:56.56\00:55:59.10
STRUGGLE AGAINST THEIR SELFISH
DESIRE FOR PLEASURE AND EASE.
00:55:59.10\00:56:03.23
THEY ARE SINCERE AND EARNEST BUT
GROW WEARY OF PROTRACTED EFFORT
00:56:03.23\00:56:07.30
OF DAILY DEATH,
OF CEASELESS TURMOIL.
00:56:07.30\00:56:10.56
INDOLENCE SEEMS INVITING.
DEATH TO SELF REPULSIVE AND THEY
00:56:10.56\00:56:14.43
CLOSE THEIR DROWSY EYES AND FALL
UNDER THE POWER OF TEMPTATION
00:56:14.43\00:56:18.20
INSTEAD OF RESISTING
IT." DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN.
00:56:18.20\00:56:22.16
GO TO WORK. GO TO WORK.
'ACTS OF THE APOSTLES,' 105.2,
00:56:22.16\00:56:26.93
"STRENGTH TO RESIST EVIL IS BEST
GAINED BY AGGRESSIVE SERVICE."
00:56:26.93\00:56:30.70
SO GET OUT THERE AND
DO SOMETHING FOR JESUS.
00:56:30.70\00:56:33.26
AND TEMPTATIONS WILL STILL COME,
BUT YOU KNOW, AS YOU'RE WORKING
00:56:33.26\00:56:36.23
FOR JESUS, IT'S PART OF
THE SANCTIFYING PROCESS?
00:56:36.23\00:56:39.03
AND ONE WAY TO RESIST TEMPTATION
IS TO GET UP AND GO DO SOMETHING
00:56:39.03\00:56:41.83
FOR SOMEBODY ELSE.
THERE IS POWER IN THAT.
00:56:41.83\00:56:45.66
WELL, MY TIME IS GONE.
