>>OUR PRESENTATION TODAY IS
GOING TO BE THE THIRD AND, GOD
00:00:14.71\00:00:17.75
WILLING, THE FINAL PART IN A
THREE-PART SERIES DEALING WITH
00:00:17.75\00:00:21.75
THE SUBJECT OF CHRISTIANITY,
ISLAM, AND PROPHECY .
00:00:21.75\00:00:26.82
AND TODAY'S MESSAGE IS MORE
SPECIFICALLY CALLED CRITICAL
00:00:26.82\00:00:29.86
MASS . I JUST
WANT TO LET YOU KNOW,
00:00:29.86\00:00:31.93
YOU KNOW, EVEN AS I WAS PRAYING
THERE I SAID, 'LORD, I AM NOT
00:00:31.93\00:00:34.10
SUFFICIENT TO THESE THINGS.' AND
THIS IS REALLY THE FIRST TIME
00:00:34.10\00:00:37.73
THAT I'VE DELVED INTO TALKING
ABOUT THIS SUBJECT AND SOME OF
00:00:37.73\00:00:41.40
THE DEEPER THEMES OF DANIEL
11. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I
00:00:41.40\00:00:45.27
WAS AT PEACE WITH
WHAT I WAS SHARING.
00:00:45.27\00:00:47.78
IT'S VERY - KIND OF AN AWESOME
RESPONSIBILITY WHEN YOU'RE A
00:00:47.78\00:00:50.95
PASTOR AND YOU'RE TEACHING
THE WORD, THAT YOU TEACH IT
00:00:50.95\00:00:53.85
FAITHFULLY, BUT I DO THINK THAT
ISLAM PLAYS A PROMINENT ROLE IN
00:00:53.85\00:00:59.25
PROPHECY. NOW,
JUST IN THE INTEREST OF
00:00:59.25\00:01:01.52
REVIEW - WE ALWAYS HAVE VISITORS
OR SOME WHO ARE WATCHING THAT
00:01:01.52\00:01:04.13
DID NOT SEE THE
PREVIOUS PROGRAMS.
00:01:04.13\00:01:06.96
WE TALKED FIRST ABOUT SIBLING
RIVALRY AND I THINK WE MADE A
00:01:06.96\00:01:10.17
GOOD CASE THAT YOU CAN TRACE
THE LINEAGE OF THE TWO SONS OF
00:01:10.17\00:01:16.34
ABRAHAM BEING ISHMAEL AND ISAAC
- SOME VERY INTERESTING THINGS -
00:01:16.34\00:01:21.31
THEY ARE THE FOUNDERS OF TWO
GREAT PEOPLES, NAMELY CHRISTIANS
00:01:21.31\00:01:26.45
AND JEWS UNDER ISAAC, AND YOU
HAVE THE MUSLIMS - THE ISLAMIC
00:01:26.45\00:01:32.99
RELIGION - UNDER ISHMAEL -
ISHMAEL AND THE OTHER SONS OF
00:01:32.99\00:01:36.52
KETURAH BECAME THE FOUNDERS OF
THE ARABS - ARAB PEOPLE - AND,
00:01:36.52\00:01:43.06
OF COURSE, FROM ISAAC
YOU HAVE CHRISTIANITY.
00:01:43.06\00:01:47.07
INTERESTING THINGS ABOUT THEM:
ISAAC HAD JACOB WHO HAD TWELVE
00:01:47.07\00:01:51.74
SONS AND ONE DAUGHTER
- BECAME A GREAT NATION.
00:01:51.74\00:01:54.58
GOD NAMED ALL OF THEM - THEY
WERE GIVEN NAMES BY GOD - AND
00:01:54.58\00:01:58.68
THEN YOU HAVE ISHMAEL HAD TWELVE
SONS - AT LEAST ONE DAUGHTER.
00:01:58.68\00:02:02.98
GOD SAID HE WOULD GROW INTO
A GREAT NATION - HE WAS NAMED -
00:02:02.98\00:02:06.39
ONE WAS FROM EGYPT -
HAGAR WAS AN EGYPTIAN.
00:02:06.39\00:02:11.03
HAGAR PICKED AN EGYPTIAN WIFE
FOR ISHMAEL AND THE OTHER, OF
00:02:11.03\00:02:14.20
COURSE, CAME FROM MESOPOTAMIA,
ORIGINALLY, BUT THEY WERE THE
00:02:14.20\00:02:18.60
JEWS - LATER KNOWN AS THE
JEWS. THEY ARE THE TWO GREATEST
00:02:18.60\00:02:22.67
RELIGIONS IN THE
WORLD TODAY - BY NUMBERS.
00:02:22.67\00:02:25.57
THERE'S MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE NO
JEWISH BLOOD OR THAT HAVE GROWN
00:02:25.57\00:02:29.24
INTO THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION ALL
AROUND THE WORLD - 2.2 BILLION
00:02:29.24\00:02:32.55
AS OF THIS MESSAGE - AND THEN
YOU HAVE ABOUT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN
00:02:32.55\00:02:37.95
1.6 AND 1.7 BILLION
MUSLIMS IN THE WORLD TODAY.
00:02:37.95\00:02:42.76
THE MUSLIMS ARE GROWING MORE
RAPIDLY - MUCH OF IT BIOLOGICAL
00:02:42.76\00:02:45.73
GROWTH, BUT THEY'RE
GROWING MORE RAPIDLY.
00:02:45.73\00:02:47.56
IT'S ESTIMATED THAT BY
2050 THERE WILL BE - IF PRESENT
00:02:47.56\00:02:52.47
TRENDS CONTINUE - THERE WILL BE
MORE MUSLIMS IN THE WORLD THAN
00:02:52.47\00:02:55.74
CHRISTIANS. THESE
ARE TWO VERY INFLUENTIAL
00:02:55.74\00:02:59.24
RELIGIONS IN THE WORLD WHEN
YOU LOOK AT, EVEN THE POLITICAL
00:02:59.24\00:03:02.61
SCOPE OF WHAT'S
HAPPENING IN THE WORLD TODAY.
00:03:02.61\00:03:06.25
AND - SHARED A LITTLE BIT LAST
WEEK ABOUT HOW IT'S INTERESTING
00:03:06.25\00:03:10.89
THAT IN GEOGRAPHY YOU HAVE THIS
NORTHERN KINGDOM WHERE YOU HAVE
00:03:10.89\00:03:18.93
ITALY, A PENINSULA, IN THE
MIDDLE OF THAT PENINSULA, ON THE
00:03:18.93\00:03:24.23
WESTERN SIDE, YOU'VE GOT
THE CAPITAL, MANY SAY, OF THE
00:03:24.23\00:03:29.70
CHRISTIAN RELIGION, IN THE
VATICAN AND THEY MAKE PILGRIMAGE
00:03:29.70\00:03:33.21
TO THIS PLACE
AND THE HOLY SITES.
00:03:33.21\00:03:35.64
WELL, AND THE LARGEST PENINSULA
IN THE WORLD IS SAUDI ARABIA AND
00:03:35.64\00:03:38.61
THERE ON THE WESTERN SIDE -
IT IS SOUTH OF ISRAEL ON THE
00:03:38.61\00:03:41.88
WESTERN SIDE - YOU'VE GOT MECCA,
ANOTHER PLACE WHERE PEOPLE
00:03:41.88\00:03:45.85
AROUND THE WORLD MAKE PILGRIMAGE
AND IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOU'VE GOT
00:03:45.85\00:03:48.62
THESE TWO SIMILAR YET DIFFERENT
RELIGIONS THAT ARE JUXTAPOSED IN
00:03:48.62\00:03:56.87
THE WORLD TODAY,
POLITICALLY AND BIBLICALLY.
00:03:56.87\00:04:01.07
JOIN ME IN THE BOOK OF DANIEL
FOR A MOMENT - DANIEL 11, VERSE
00:04:01.07\00:04:04.74
40, "AT THE TIME OF THE END
OF THE KING OF THE SOUTH SHALL
00:04:04.74\00:04:11.78
ATTACK HIM (THE KING OF
THE NORTH); AND THE KING OF THE
00:04:11.78\00:04:15.25
NORTH WILL COME AGAINST HIM LIKE
A WHIRLWIND WITH MANY CHARIOTS,
00:04:15.25\00:04:19.92
HORSEMEN, AND WITH MANY
SHIPS; AND HE SHALL ENTER THE
00:04:19.92\00:04:24.09
COUNTRIES, OVERWHELM
THEM, AND PASS THROUGH.
00:04:24.09\00:04:27.20
HE SHALL ALSO ENTER THE GLORIOUS
LAND, AND MANY COUNTRIES SHALL
00:04:27.20\00:04:30.33
BE OVERTHROWN;" - HE'S TALKING
ABOUT WHOLE COUNTRIES - BUT
00:04:30.33\00:04:33.23
THESE SHALL ESCAPE FROM
HIS HAND: EDOM, MOAB, AND THE
00:04:33.23\00:04:36.44
PROMINENT PEOPLE OF AMMON.
HE SHALL STRETCH OUT HIS HAND
00:04:36.44\00:04:40.28
AGAINST THE COUNTRIES, AND THE
LAND OF EGYPT SHALL NOT ESCAPE.
00:04:40.28\00:04:44.51
HE SHALL HAVE POWER OVER THE
TREASURES OF GOLD AND SILVER,
00:04:44.51\00:04:47.52
AND OVER ALL THE PRECIOUS THINGS
OF EGYPT; ALSO THE LIBYANS AND
00:04:47.52\00:04:50.69
ETHIOPIANS SHALL
FOLLOW AT HIS HEELS.
00:04:50.69\00:04:53.25
BUT NEWS FROM THE EAST AND
THE NORTH SHALL TROUBLE HIM;
00:04:53.25\00:04:56.29
THEREFORE HE SHALL GO OUT
WITH GREAT FURY TO DESTROY AND
00:04:56.29\00:05:00.10
ANNIHILATE MANY. AND HE
SHALL PLANT THE TENTS OF
00:05:00.10\00:05:03.90
HIS PALACE BETWEEN THE SEAS AND
THE GLORIOUS HOLY MOUNTAIN; YET
00:05:03.90\00:05:07.40
SHALL COME TO HIS END,
AND NO ONE WILL HELP HIM."
00:05:07.40\00:05:11.01
THOSE ARE SOME VERSES THAT WE'RE
GOING TO DELVE INTO TODAY - IT'S
00:05:11.01\00:05:15.64
VERY MYSTERIOUS. IT
SAYS 'AT THE TIME OF THE END'
00:05:15.64\00:05:18.48
- WHAT IS THIS TALKING ABOUT?
WE KNOW THOSE VERSES THERE FROM
00:05:18.48\00:05:21.78
40 TO 45 ARE VERY IMPORTANT
BECAUSE IF YOU READ THE NEXT
00:05:21.78\00:05:24.32
VERSE, "AT THAT TIME MICHAEL
SHALL STAND UP, THE GREAT PRINCE
00:05:24.32\00:05:27.96
WHO STANDS WATCH OVER THE SONS
OF YOUR PEOPLE; AND THERE SHALL
00:05:27.96\00:05:30.79
BE A TIME OF TROUBLE SUCH
AS NEVER WAS SINCE THERE WAS A
00:05:30.79\00:05:34.83
NATION, EVEN TO THAT TIME."
JESUS SPEAKS ABOUT THIS GREAT
00:05:34.83\00:05:38.33
TIME OF TROUBLE SUCH
AS THERE NEVER HAS BEEN.
00:05:38.33\00:05:41.74
"AND AT THAT TIME YOUR
PEOPLE SHALL BE DELIVERED" - THE
00:05:41.74\00:05:45.04
ULTIMATE DELIVERANCE - EVERYONE
WHO WAS FOUND WRITTEN IN THE
00:05:45.04\00:05:47.74
BOOK" - THE BOOK OF LIFE - AND
MANY OF THOSE WHO SLEEP IN THE
00:05:47.74\00:05:50.98
DUST OF THE EARTH WILL AWAKE -
A RESURRECTION - SO IT'S PRETTY
00:05:50.98\00:05:54.58
CLEAR THAT WHEN MICHAEL
STANDS UP, THAT IT'S OVER.
00:05:54.58\00:05:58.35
YOU'VE GOT THE RESURRECTION,
YOU'VE GOT THIS TIME OF TROUBLE,
00:05:58.35\00:06:00.72
YOU'VE GOT THE GREAT DELIVERANCE
- SO WHAT'S HAPPENING JUST
00:06:00.72\00:06:04.39
BEFORE THAT? WELL,
I THINK IT'S GOING TO
00:06:04.39\00:06:07.50
REPRESENT A SHOWDOWN WHERE
THE TENSIONS THAT HAVE SIMMERED
00:06:07.50\00:06:15.07
FROM THE TIME OF ABRAHAM AND
THROUGHOUT THE CHRISTIAN ERA,
00:06:15.07\00:06:19.17
ARE GOING TO
REACH CRITICAL MASS.
00:06:19.17\00:06:21.51
NOW, I KNOW THAT AMERICA IS A
BLESSED COUNTRY AND WE'RE A RICH
00:06:21.51\00:06:24.61
COUNTRY - MUCH OF THE ECONOMY
OF THE WORLD IS MEASURED BY THE
00:06:24.61\00:06:28.32
U.S. DOLLAR BECAUSE IT'S A
STABLE CURRENCY, BUT WE ARE NOT
00:06:28.32\00:06:32.32
THE RICHEST COUNTRY. I DON'T
KNOW IF YOU'VE - ANY OF YOU
00:06:32.32\00:06:36.59
BEEN TO DUBAI? OR KUWAIT?
OR THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES?
00:06:36.59\00:06:44.70
WOW - JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA:
UNITED STATES GROSS DOMESTIC
00:06:44.70\00:06:51.61
PRODUCT PER CAPITA - $57,000
A YEAR. UNITED ARAB EMIRATES:
00:06:51.61\00:06:59.58
67,000 PER CAPITA. KUWAIT:
$71,000, QATAR: $146,000 -
00:06:59.58\00:07:10.73
ALMOST THREE TIMES THE U.S.
THEY'VE GOT ENOUGH MONEY JUST
00:07:10.73\00:07:14.36
POURING IN - IF YOU
COULD PICTURE A PIPE WITH MONEY
00:07:14.36\00:07:20.10
FLOWING OUT ALL DAY LONG -
A VERY BIG PIPE - THERE IS A
00:07:20.10\00:07:24.61
CATARACT - THERE IS A RIVER
OF MONEY THAT FLOWS INTO THESE
00:07:24.61\00:07:28.48
COUNTRIES EVERY DAY
AND IT'S BECAUSE OF OIL.
00:07:28.48\00:07:33.15
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THE UNITED
00:07:33.15\00:07:35.08
STATES, EVEN THOUGH, THANKFULLY,
WE DO PRODUCE A GOOD PERCENTAGE
00:07:35.08\00:07:38.49
OF OUR OWN OIL, WE ARE STILL
DEPENDENT ON FOREIGN OIL, BUT IF
00:07:38.49\00:07:43.39
SUDDENLY THERE WAS SOME - I
REMEMBER A CALIFORNIA REFINERY
00:07:43.39\00:07:47.20
WENT DOWN NOT TOO LONG AGO AND
PRICES JUST SHOT UP AND PEOPLE
00:07:47.20\00:07:51.23
WERE WAITING IN LINE - SOME
OF YOU REMEMBER THE OIL EMBARGO
00:07:51.23\00:07:54.97
FROM THE 70S WHERE PEOPLE AROUND
THE COUNTRY WERE WAITING IN
00:07:54.97\00:07:58.44
LINE. WHAT WOULD
HAPPEN IF THE TRUCKS
00:07:58.44\00:07:59.71
COULD NOT DELIVER FOOD IN
NORTH AMERICA IN OUR CITIES?
00:07:59.71\00:08:03.78
DO YOU THINK
EVERYONE WOULD BEHAVE WELL?
00:08:03.78\00:08:06.08
A COUPLE WEEKS GO BY - SHELVES
WOULD BE STRIPPED IN A FEW DAYS
00:08:06.08\00:08:10.32
ONCE PEOPLE KNEW THAT
THE TRUCKS WEREN'T MOVING.
00:08:10.32\00:08:13.05
NOT THAT I'M TRYING TO
GIVE TERRORISTS ANY IDEAS, THEY
00:08:13.05\00:08:15.52
ALREADY PROBABLY THOUGHT
OF EVERYTHING, BUT WE'RE JUST
00:08:15.52\00:08:18.69
LIVING, RIGHT NOW, ON A
HAIR-THIN TRIGGER - I MEAN
00:08:18.69\00:08:22.86
EVERYTHING IS HANGING BY
A SPIDER'S WEB RIGHT NOW.
00:08:22.86\00:08:26.97
SO MANY THINGS COULD HAPPEN THAT
WOULD QUICKLY SEND THE WORLD
00:08:26.97\00:08:29.67
INTO A TIME OF TROUBLE
THAT CANNOT BE IMAGINED.
00:08:29.67\00:08:33.88
WELL, IF YOU LOOK IN REVELATION
8:13, "AND I LOOKED, AND I HEARD
00:08:33.88\00:08:37.58
AN ANGEL FLYING THROUGH THE
MIDST OF HEAVEN, SAYING WITH A
00:08:37.58\00:08:40.45
LOUD VOICE, 'WOE, WOE, WOE
TO THE INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH,
00:08:40.45\00:08:46.32
BECAUSE OF THE REMAINING BLASTS
OF THE TRUMPET OF THE THREE
00:08:46.32\00:08:50.09
ANGELS WHO ARE ABOUT TO SOUND!'"
SO THE LAST THREE TRUMPETS IN
00:08:50.09\00:08:53.63
THE SEVEN TRUMPETS OF REVELATION
ARE CALLED 'WOE'. SO 'WOE'
00:08:53.63\00:08:57.40
MEANS A TIME OF GREAT SORROW,
DISTRESS, OR TRIBULATION.
00:08:57.40\00:09:03.30
IT ALSO TRANSLATES THAT WELL
FROM THE GREEK, ADDITIONALLY.
00:09:03.30\00:09:08.34
SO THE SEVEN TRUMPETS IN
REVELATION - OFTEN WHEN THEY
00:09:08.34\00:09:11.51
WENT INTO BATTLE THEY
COMMUNICATED WITH TRUMPETS.
00:09:11.51\00:09:14.18
PAUL SAYS IN 1 CORINTHIANS
14, "IF THE TRUMPET MAKES AN
00:09:14.18\00:09:16.72
UNCERTAIN SOUND, WHO
WILL PREPARE FOR BATTLE?"
00:09:16.72\00:09:19.29
AND WHEN JERICHO WAS TAKEN THEY
HAD SEVEN TRUMPETS GOING AROUND
00:09:19.29\00:09:22.82
THE CITY AND THEY BLEW THESE
SEVEN TRUMPETS FOR SEVEN DAYS -
00:09:22.82\00:09:27.50
THEY MARCHED AROUND THE CITY
ONCE FOR SIX DAYS, SEVEN TIMES
00:09:27.50\00:09:30.43
ON THE SEVENTH DAY - THIRTEEN
TIMES AROUND THE CITY - BUT THEY
00:09:30.43\00:09:33.34
STILL HAD SEVEN TRUMPETS.
THEY BLEW THE TRUMPETS, THE CITY
00:09:33.34\00:09:36.07
FELL, THEY ATTACKED THEIR ENEMY
- TRUMPETS OFTEN HAD TO DO WITH
00:09:36.07\00:09:38.87
BATTLE, IN THE BIBLE, AND SO
THESE LAST THREE TRUMPETS OF THE
00:09:38.87\00:09:44.08
SEVEN - I DON'T HAVE TIME TO
STUDY THE SEVEN TRUMPETS WITH
00:09:44.08\00:09:46.01
YOU RIGHT NOW - THEY'RE - WELL,
LET ME SAY THIS: YOU'VE GOT
00:09:46.01\00:09:51.62
SEVERAL SEVENS IN REVELATION
- YOU'VE GOT SEVEN CHURCHES -
00:09:51.62\00:09:55.46
COVERS THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH
FROM THE TIME OF REVELATION -
00:09:55.46\00:09:58.59
FIRST COMING OF JESUS - TO
THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS.
00:09:58.59\00:10:01.90
IT'S THE SPIRITUAL HISTORY.
YOU'VE GOT THE SEVEN SEALS IN
00:10:01.90\00:10:05.17
REVELATION; IT COVERS
THE POLITICAL HISTORY THAT
00:10:05.17\00:10:08.17
INFLUENCES GOD'S PEOPLE, FROM
THE FIRST COMING TO THE SECOND
00:10:08.17\00:10:11.97
COMING. AND THEN YOU'VE GOT
THE SEVEN TRUMPETS; THEY COVER A
00:10:11.97\00:10:15.51
MILITARY HISTORY FROM THE FIRST
COMING TO THE SECOND COMING -
00:10:15.51\00:10:20.72
BATTLES AND FORCES AND POWERS
THAT WOULD BE AT ODDS - AND IT'S
00:10:20.72\00:10:24.32
NOT TALKING ABOUT ALL THE
KINGDOMS AND ALL THE WARS OF ALL
00:10:24.32\00:10:27.46
THE WORLD. YOU WONDER, DOES THIS
PROPHECY TALK ABOUT CHINA OR THE
00:10:27.46\00:10:31.26
INCA INDIANS, OR DOES IT TALK
ABOUT THE, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE
00:10:31.26\00:10:36.60
OTHER NATIONS? NO, IT'S DEALING
WITH THE NATIONS THAT WOULD HAVE
00:10:36.60\00:10:42.00
A DIRECT IMPACT ON GOD'S PEOPLE
AND THE PROCLAMATION OF THE
00:10:42.00\00:10:46.21
GOSPEL. SO IT STARTS IN ISRAEL,
IT EXPANDS FROM THERE THROUGH
00:10:46.21\00:10:50.95
EUROPE WHERE THE GOSPEL SPREAD
AND IT BECAME THE FOOTHOLD -
00:10:50.95\00:10:54.42
MAKES ITS WAY TO AMERICA - ARE
YOU AWARE THAT AMERICA SENDS OUT
00:10:54.42\00:10:57.79
MORE MISSIONARIES THAN ANY
OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD?
00:10:57.79\00:11:00.69
THAT MORE MISSION DOLLARS
COME FROM AMERICA THAN ANY OTHER
00:11:00.69\00:11:03.29
COUNTRY IN THE WORLD? SO
IT SHOULDN'T SURPRISE YOU
00:11:03.29\00:11:05.93
THAT THESE PLACES THAT HAVE BEEN
THE GUARDIAN OF THE MESSAGE ARE
00:11:05.93\00:11:09.50
THE ONES THAT ARE PRINCIPALLY
MENTIONED IN PROPHECY.
00:11:09.50\00:11:13.60
SO THEN THESE THREE PROPHECIES
- IF YOU LOOK, FOR INSTANCE -
00:11:13.60\00:11:17.37
WE'RE GOING TO GO NEXT TO THE
RISE OF ISLAM, AND IF YOU READ
00:11:17.37\00:11:20.71
IN REVELATION 9 - GO IN YOUR
BIBLES, YOU TURN A LITTLE BIT
00:11:20.71\00:11:24.01
OVER AND IT'S TALKING
ABOUT THAT NEXT TRUMPET.
00:11:24.01\00:11:26.72
"THEN THE FIFTH ANGEL SOUNDED:
AND I SAW" - THIS FIFTH ANGEL IS
00:11:26.72\00:11:30.52
THE FIRST OF THE THREE WOES -
"I SAW A STAR FALLEN FROM HEAVEN
00:11:30.52\00:11:34.96
TO THE EARTH. TO HIM WAS GIVEN
THE KEY TO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT.
00:11:34.96\00:11:38.13
AND HE OPENED THE BOTTOMLESS
PIT, AND SMOKE AROSE OUT OF THE
00:11:38.13\00:11:40.76
PIT LIKE THE SMOKE OF A GREAT
FURNACE. SO THE SUN AND THE AIR
00:11:40.76\00:11:44.23
WERE DARKENED BECAUSE
OF THE SMOKE OF THE PIT.
00:11:44.23\00:11:47.04
THEN OUT OF THE SMOKE
LOCUSTS CAME UPON THE EARTH."
00:11:47.04\00:11:49.50
- NOW, IF YOU LIVED BACK IN
BIBLE TIMES, THEY WOULD SAY,
00:11:49.50\00:11:52.67
'SMOKE IS COMING!
THERE'S A FOREST FIRE!' - AND
00:11:52.67\00:11:55.11
THEN WHEN THE SMOKE GOT
CLOSER, IT WASN'T SMOKE, IT WAS
00:11:55.11\00:11:57.21
LOCUSTS - A PLAGUE OF LOCUSTS.
00:11:57.21\00:12:01.42
NOW, I READ TO YOU LAST WEEK -
IF YOU READ IN JUDGES CHAPTER 6
00:12:01.42\00:12:05.29
IT TALKED ABOUT WHEN THE
AMALEKITES AND THE MIDIANITES
00:12:05.29\00:12:08.06
AND THE PEOPLE OF THE EAST
COVERED THE LAND LIKE LOCUSTS -
00:12:08.06\00:12:10.93
WITH THEIR CAMELS - THESE ARE
THE PEOPLE THAT COMPRISED THE
00:12:10.93\00:12:13.90
ARABS AND IT DESCRIBES
THEM AS LOCUSTS - AND THEY ATE
00:12:13.90\00:12:17.17
EVERYTHING IN THE LAND.
THAT'S WHY GIDEON WAS THRESHING
00:12:17.17\00:12:20.40
WHEAT SECRETLY, BECAUSE THERE
WAS NO FOOD - THE LOCUSTS ATE IT
00:12:20.40\00:12:23.10
ALL - THE ARAB ENEMIES, AT THAT
TIME - AND SO, THIS WOULD NOT BE
00:12:23.10\00:12:29.51
THE FIRST TIME THAT THERE
WAS A BATTLE BETWEEN THESE TWO
00:12:29.51\00:12:31.31
PEOPLES. SO HERE,
THIS SMOKE COMING OUT
00:12:31.31\00:12:33.88
OF THE PIT IS DESCRIBING
THE BIRTH AND THE SPREAD OF THE
00:12:33.88\00:12:38.99
RELIGION OF MOHAMMED,
WHO WAS THIS INFLUENCE.
00:12:38.99\00:12:47.03
NOW WHEN AN ANGEL
FALLS, HE'S NOT A GOOD ANGEL.
00:12:47.03\00:12:49.80
AN ANGEL IS A MESSENGER AND
HE GOT THESE MESSAGES OUT OF HIS
00:12:49.80\00:12:53.34
CAVE AND I DON'T
BELIEVE IT'S THE TRUTH.
00:12:53.34\00:12:56.20
AND THIS WHOLE NEW RELIGION GREW
UP - IT'S INTERESTING, IT ALL
00:12:56.20\00:12:59.67
TOOK PLACE RIGHT ABOUT THE TIME
OF THE COUNTERFEIT CHRISTIAN
00:12:59.67\00:13:05.55
MOVEMENT, WHICH WAS 538 - ISLAM,
WELL, IT'S HARD TO PEG A DATE
00:13:05.55\00:13:11.02
WHEN IT REALLY BECAME A
RELIGION, BUT ABOUT 612 IS THE
00:13:11.02\00:13:14.62
TIME THE HISTORIANS PUT ON
IT. NOT LONG AFTER THAT ANOTHER
00:13:14.62\00:13:18.93
GROUP CAME UP AND THEY HAD
THEIR OWN VERSION OF THE BIBLE.
00:13:18.93\00:13:22.23
THEY DID HAVE SOME CHRISTIAN
TRAPPINGS AND ROOTS AND, OF
00:13:22.23\00:13:24.77
COURSE, CATHOLICISM'S GOT A LOT
OF CHRISTIAN ROOTS, BUT IT WAS
00:13:24.77\00:13:27.24
CO-MINGLED WITH SOME PAGAN
RELIGION, JUST AS ISLAM HAD A
00:13:27.24\00:13:30.94
LITTLE BIT OF LUNAR WORSHIP
CO-MINGLED, CHRISTIANITY HAD
00:13:30.94\00:13:34.21
SOLAR WORSHIP CO-MINGLED.
SO THIS IS WHAT'S BEING
00:13:34.21\00:13:38.38
DESCRIBED HERE IN CHAPTER 9
IN THE FIRST TWELVE VERSES - IT
00:13:38.38\00:13:43.15
TALKS ABOUT THESE LOCUSTS
PREPARED FOR BATTLE. AND THIS IS
00:13:43.15\00:13:47.12
THE FIRST TRUMPET - OR THE
FIRST WOE OF THE FIFTH TRUMPET.
00:13:47.12\00:13:52.29
MOST CHRISTIAN EXPOSITORS -
MARTIN LUTHER, SIR ISAAC NEWTON,
00:13:52.29\00:13:59.47
HISTORIAN EDWARD GIBBON, AND
MANY OTHERS ALL SAW THE FIFTH
00:13:59.47\00:14:03.61
AND THE SIXTH TRUMPETS IN
REVELATION 9 AS THE RISE AND THE
00:14:03.61\00:14:08.51
SPREAD OF ISLAM AND ITS BATTLES
WITH THE EASTERN AND WESTERN
00:14:08.51\00:14:14.85
CHRISTIAN WORLD THAT WAS
GROWING THERE THROUGH EUROPE.
00:14:14.85\00:14:19.52
AND, AGAIN, I MENTIONED
IT STARTED ABOUT 612 AND ITS
00:14:19.52\00:14:22.22
INCREDIBLE RISE FROM ALMOST
NOTHING - ONE REASON THEY AROSE
00:14:22.22\00:14:26.16
SO QUICKLY IS RIGHT ABOUT THIS
TIME THERE WAS A TERRIBLE PLAGUE
00:14:26.16\00:14:31.77
- IN 542 - AND IT LASTED ALMOST
200 YEARS - IT CAME AND WENT.
00:14:31.77\00:14:35.74
YOU'VE HEARD OF
THE BUBONIC PLAGUE?
00:14:35.74\00:14:37.21
WELL, THE FIRST BUBONIC PLAGUE
WAS CALLED JUSTINIAN'S PLAGUE
00:14:37.21\00:14:40.18
BECAUSE IT STARTED IN
CONSTANTINOPLE, WHICH WAS ALSO
00:14:40.18\00:14:42.98
THE SAME PLACE THAT THE MUSLIMS
FIRST ATTACKED AS THE CAPITAL OF
00:14:42.98\00:14:46.41
CHRISTIANITY AND, DURING THAT
TIME, 50 MILLION PEOPLE DIED AND
00:14:46.41\00:14:51.02
IT SO DEVASTATED THE CHRISTIAN
WORLD THAT, AT THAT SAME TIME,
00:14:51.02\00:14:54.86
THE ARABS THAT WERE PRETTY MUCH
ISOLATED FROM ALOT OF THAT, THEY
00:14:54.86\00:14:58.56
EXPLODED IN NUMBERS THROUGH
ARABIA AND THEY WERE, OF COURSE
00:14:58.56\00:15:03.93
GREAT TRADERS DURING THAT
TIME AND THE RELIGION OF ISLAM
00:15:03.93\00:15:07.30
SPREAD. AND SO,
YOU NOTICE IF YOU GO
00:15:07.30\00:15:11.54
TO VERSE 9 - SO REVELATION 9:1
THROUGH 12 IS THE FIFTH TRUMPET
00:15:11.54\00:15:17.35
AND THE FIRST WOE - IT'S THE
RISE OF ISLAM - AND IT SAYS THEY
00:15:17.35\00:15:20.48
WOULD TORMENT - THERE'S A NUMBER
ASSOCIATED WITH IT - THEY WOULD
00:15:20.48\00:15:23.39
BE TORMENTING CHRISTIANITY
- THEY DIDN'T KILL THEM, THEY
00:15:23.39\00:15:25.69
TORMENTED THEM LIKE THE STING OF
A SCORPION - IT'S NOT A DEADLY
00:15:25.69\00:15:29.46
SERPENT - FOR FIVE MONTHS.
NOW, WHEN WE LOOK AT THESE BIBLE
00:15:29.46\00:15:33.03
PROPHECIES AND THERE'S
A TIME PERIOD, WHAT'S THE
00:15:33.03\00:15:35.50
PRINCIPLE WE
USE? A DAY IS A YEAR.
00:15:35.50\00:15:39.47
A BIBLICAL MONTH HAD 30 DAYS,
THAT'S WHY THE 42 MONTHS COMES
00:15:39.47\00:15:44.77
TO 1,260 DAYS - BECAUSE THEY'RE
30-DAY MONTHS - IT'S THE ONLY
00:15:44.77\00:15:48.81
WAY THOSE TWO
COULD BE RECONCILED.
00:15:48.81\00:15:50.48
THAT'S 150 DAYS IN
FIVE MONTHS, RIGHT?
00:15:50.48\00:15:54.15
150 DAYS - A DAY IS A YEAR - 150
YEARS - AND IT STARTED IN 1299
00:15:54.15\00:16:00.22
AT THE BATTLE OF BETHUNE -
THE TURKISH MUSLIMS BEGAN A
00:16:00.22\00:16:03.76
PERSISTENT ASSAULT ON
THE EASTERN ROMAN EMPIRE IN
00:16:03.76\00:16:07.03
CONSTANTINOPLE. IN 1449, EXACTLY
150 YEARS LATER, THE CONFLICT OF
00:16:07.03\00:16:12.23
THE EASTERN ROMAN EMPIRE, OR
BYZANTINE EMPIRE, IT BECAME A
00:16:12.23\00:16:16.97
VASSAL STATE - IT SUBMITTED TO
THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE, WHICH WAS A
00:16:16.97\00:16:21.84
MUSLIM POWER - EXACTLY WHAT
THE PROPHECY SAID WOULD HAPPEN.
00:16:21.84\00:16:26.82
NOW, YOU GO TO REVELATION 9:12 -
IT SAYS - THE ANGEL DOESN'T WANT
00:16:26.82\00:16:31.12
US TO LOSE TRACK SO HE
SAYS, "ONE WOE IS PAST.
00:16:31.12\00:16:34.69
BEHOLD, STILL TWO MORE WOES"
- TO MAKE UP THOSE THREE - "ARE
00:16:34.69\00:16:37.89
COMING" - THESE WOES - THE FIRST
TWO WOES - ARE A BATTLE BETWEEN
00:16:37.89\00:16:42.06
CHRISTIANITY AND
ISLAM. COULD IT BE THE THIRD
00:16:42.06\00:16:44.37
WOE IS MORE OF THE SAME?
THAT'S WHAT I'M PUTTING FORTH.
00:16:44.37\00:16:49.60
NOW, IF YOU READ IN REVELATION
9:14, IT TALKS ABOUT FOUR ANGELS
00:16:49.60\00:16:54.84
AND IT SAYS THESE FOUR ANGELS
- AND I'LL READ THIS TO YOU,
00:16:54.84\00:16:57.68
"SAYING TO THE SIXTH ANGEL," -
WHO HAS THE TRUMPET, SO THIS IS
00:16:57.68\00:17:01.68
THE SIXTH TRUMPET - HE SAYS,
"'RELEASE THE FOUR ANGELS WHO
00:17:01.68\00:17:06.25
ARE BOUND AT THE
GREAT RIVER EUPHRATES.'
00:17:06.25\00:17:09.42
SO THE FOUR ANGELS, WHO
HAD BEEN PREPARED" - AND
00:17:09.42\00:17:12.19
YOU'VE GOT ANOTHER TIME PERIOD
HERE - "FOR THE HOUR AND DAY AND
00:17:12.19\00:17:16.03
MONTH AND YEAR, WERE RELEASED
TO KILL A THIRD OF MANKIND."
00:17:16.03\00:17:20.50
THIS REPRESENTED A DIFFERENT WOE
- A DIFFERENT PHASE OF BATTLES
00:17:20.50\00:17:24.87
THAT LASTED OVER 300 YEARS,
BETWEEN ISLAM AND CHRISTIANITY,
00:17:24.87\00:17:30.71
WHERE NOW THEY STARTED ATTACKING
THE WESTERN ROMAN EMPIRE AND
00:17:30.71\00:17:34.28
THEY, BASICALLY, HAD ALREADY
SWALLOWED UP AND CONQUERED THE
00:17:34.28\00:17:36.75
EASTERN ROMAN EMPIRE AND - WELL,
YOU KNOW, BEFORE I GET INTO
00:17:36.75\00:17:42.62
THAT, IT TALKS
HERE ABOUT FOUR ANGELS.
00:17:42.62\00:17:44.83
I JUST WANT TO
EMPHASIZE THIS A LITTLE BIT.
00:17:44.83\00:17:47.86
YOU READ IN REVELATION 7 ABOUT
FOUR ANGELS HOLDING BACK THE
00:17:47.86\00:17:50.13
FOUR WINDS OF STRIFE, HERE IT'S
TALKING ABOUT FOUR ANGELS AT THE
00:17:50.13\00:17:52.80
RIVER EUPHRATES. NOW,
KEEP IN MIND, IN THE BOOK
00:17:52.80\00:17:56.94
OF DANIEL YOU'VE GOT FOUR
KINGDOMS THAT END UP COMING DOWN
00:17:56.94\00:18:03.01
AND ATTACKING ISRAEL - OR
AT LEAST OCCUPYING ISRAEL.
00:18:03.01\00:18:07.85
THE FIRST WAS BABYLON -
ACROSS THE EUPHRATES RIVER -
00:18:07.85\00:18:11.52
MEDO-PERSIA CAME ACROSS
THE EUPHRATES RIVER, GREECE -
00:18:11.52\00:18:16.69
ALEXANDER WENT ACROSS THE
EUPHRATES AND CAME BACK TO
00:18:16.69\00:18:18.86
ISRAEL - ROME HAD TO
COME IN FROM THE NORTH AGAIN.
00:18:18.86\00:18:24.23
ALL THESE EMPIRES CAME FROM THE
NORTH AND SO THE TERRITORY OF
00:18:24.23\00:18:28.57
SOLOMON REACHED AS FAR AS THE
EUPHRATES RIVER AND IT MEANT AN
00:18:28.57\00:18:31.54
ENEMY FORCE IS COMING IN, SO
YOU'VE GOT THESE FOUR FORCES.
00:18:31.54\00:18:35.34
WELL, NOW YOU'VE GOT THEM COMING
BACK AND THEY'RE BEING RELEASED
00:18:35.34\00:18:38.85
TO ATTACK THE PEOPLE OF GOD -
AND THIS IS THE SIXTH TRUMPET,
00:18:38.85\00:18:43.99
OR THE SECOND WOE.
LET'S LOOK AT THE TIME PERIOD
00:18:43.99\00:18:46.62
HERE, AND I'LL HAVE THE
NUMBERS UP ON THE SCREEN FOR
00:18:46.62\00:18:48.89
YOU IN JUST A MOMENT. IF
YOU'VE GOT A DAY AND AN HOUR
00:18:48.89\00:18:54.20
- YOU'VE GOT AN HOUR, A DAY,
A MONTH, AND A YEAR - WELL, AN
00:18:54.20\00:18:57.60
HOUR, EVEN IN THE BIBLE
THERE WERE 24 HOURS IN A DAY.
00:18:57.60\00:19:01.94
YOU CAN READ WHERE JESUS SAID,
'ARE THERE NOT TWELVE HOURS IN A
00:19:01.94\00:19:04.14
DAY?' AND SO YOU'VE GOT 1/24
OF A DAY OR 1/24 OF A YEAR IS
00:19:04.14\00:19:09.94
EXACTLY 360 DAYS TO THE JEWISH
YEAR - THAT'S GOING TO BE 15
00:19:09.94\00:19:13.52
DAYS. THEN YOU'VE GOT A DAY,
WHICH IS ONE DAY, THEN YOU'VE
00:19:13.52\00:19:21.42
GOT A MONTH, WHICH IS 30 DAYS,
AND THEN YOU HAVE A YEAR, WHICH
00:19:21.42\00:19:23.93
IS 360 DAYS. YOU ADD
ALL THAT UP AND YOU END
00:19:23.93\00:19:28.16
UP WITH - LET'S PUT - THERE WE
GO, THANK YOU. YOU ADD THAT UP
00:19:28.16\00:19:32.13
AND THAT COMES TO 391 YEARS
AND 15 DAYS. THIS IS INCREDIBLE
00:19:32.13\00:19:38.04
BECAUSE, IF YOU START AT THAT
EARLIER STARTING POINT OF 1449,
00:19:38.04\00:19:43.18
IT EXTENDS TO 1840 AND, AT THAT
POINT, THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE LOST
00:19:43.18\00:19:49.52
ITS INDEPENDENCE AND AUTHORITY.
IT REQUESTED HELP FROM OTHER
00:19:49.52\00:19:53.89
EUROPEAN NATIONS
TO CONTINUE EXISTING.
00:19:53.89\00:19:56.99
AND WHAT'S INCREDIBLE - THIS IS
ONE OF THE RARE TIMES IN HISTORY
00:19:56.99\00:19:59.39
- MOST OF THE TIME WE UNDERSTAND
PROPHECY CLEARLY, LOOKING BACK.
00:19:59.39\00:20:04.47
JESUS SAID, 'WHEN THIS COMES TO
PASS, THEN YOU WILL KNOW.' AND
00:20:04.47\00:20:07.67
SO WE ALWAYS TRY AND USE
PROPHECY TO SAY WHAT'S GOING TO
00:20:07.67\00:20:09.40
HAPPEN, MORE TIMES THAN NOT WE
SAY, 'OH.' AFTER IT HAPPENS WE
00:20:09.40\00:20:13.11
SAY, 'OH.' BUT THIS IS ONE OF
THE RARE TIMES IN HISTORY WHERE
00:20:13.11\00:20:16.95
SOMEBODY STUDIED THE PROPHECIES
AND PREDICTED IN ADVANCE WHAT
00:20:16.95\00:20:20.12
WAS GOING TO
HAPPEN AND IT HAPPENED.
00:20:20.12\00:20:21.62
HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE
READ ABOUT JOSIAH LITCH?
00:20:21.62\00:20:24.45
AND WHEN HE STUDIED THIS
PROPHECY BACK DURING THAT GREAT
00:20:24.45\00:20:27.56
MILLERITE MOVEMENT WHEN THEY
WERE ANTICIPATING THE LORD'S
00:20:27.56\00:20:31.23
COMING, HE PREDICTED, USING THE
DAY FOR THE YEAR PRINCIPLE, THE
00:20:31.23\00:20:35.10
OTTOMAN EMPIRE WAS GOING TO FALL
AND EVEN PREDICTED THE DATE IT
00:20:35.10\00:20:39.03
WOULD FALL BASED ON THE DATE
IT STARTED, AND IT HAPPENED.
00:20:39.03\00:20:42.84
WELL, THAT REALLY INSPIRED
EVERYBODY ELSE THAT 1844 WAS A
00:20:42.84\00:20:46.71
GOOD DATE, WHICH IT WAS,
THEY JUST HAD THE WRONG EVENT.
00:20:46.71\00:20:49.18
BUT IT WAS VERY INTERESTING THAT
THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE, WHICH HAD
00:20:49.18\00:20:55.08
EXPANDED DURING THAT TIME, FELL.
00:20:55.08\00:20:56.99
NOW I WANT TO GO BACK TO - GO TO
REVELATION 9 AND WE'RE GOING TO
00:20:56.99\00:21:03.59
BE READING THE
VERSES FROM 13 ON.
00:21:03.59\00:21:12.27
"THEN THE SIXTH ANGEL SOUNDED:
AND I HEARD A VOICE FROM THE
00:21:12.27\00:21:14.97
FOUR HORNS OF THE GOLDEN ALTAR
WHICH IS BEFORE GOD, SAYING TO
00:21:14.97\00:21:18.47
THE SIXTH ANGEL WHO HAD
THE TRUMPET, 'RELEASE THE FOUR
00:21:18.47\00:21:21.44
ANGELS WHO ARE BOUND AT
THE GREAT RIVER EUPHRATES.
00:21:21.44\00:21:24.58
SO THE FOUR ANGELS WHO HAD BEEN
PREPARED FOR THE HOUR AND DAY
00:21:24.58\00:21:27.85
AND MONTH AND YEAR, WERE
RELEASED TO KILL A THIRD OF
00:21:27.85\00:21:30.72
MANKIND." NOW SOME
HAVE WONDERED, 'WHAT
00:21:30.72\00:21:33.09
DOES THAT MEAN, A
THIRD OF ALL HUMANITY?'
00:21:33.09\00:21:35.06
WELL, MAYBE AS MANY AS A THIRD
OF THE SOLDIERS INVOLVED IN THE
00:21:35.06\00:21:38.59
BATTLES OVER THIS 300-YEAR
PERIOD - OR 391-YEAR PERIOD.
00:21:38.59\00:21:43.30
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE
ACCURATE BECAUSE THE ARMIES OF
00:21:43.30\00:21:46.37
CHRISTIANITY WERE
DECIMATED DURING THIS TIME.
00:21:46.37\00:21:51.94
VERSE 16, "NOW THE NUMBER OF
THE ARMY OF THE HORSEMEN WAS TWO
00:21:51.94\00:21:57.65
HUNDRED MILLION;" - NOW EVERY
COMMENTATOR I'VE READ ON THAT
00:21:57.65\00:22:02.92
SAID, 'WE'RE
MAKING A MISTAKE HERE.'
00:22:02.92\00:22:05.75
NOW, I DON'T KNOW,
WHAT DOES YOUR BIBLE SAY?
00:22:05.75\00:22:07.26
KING JAMES IS - YEAH - AND HERE
I'M READING THE NEW KING JAMES
00:22:07.26\00:22:12.59
THAT SAYS "200 MILLION" AND MANY
OTHER VERSIONS PUT THAT; THE
00:22:12.59\00:22:15.96
REASON IS, THAT NUMBER IS
ACTUALLY TWO MYRIADS OF MYRIADS.
00:22:15.96\00:22:20.27
THE PROBLEM IS, THE WORD
'MYRIAD' IS AN END - IT'S AN
00:22:20.27\00:22:25.27
IMPRECISE NUMBER.
MATTER OF FACT, IN THE BOOK OF
00:22:25.27\00:22:28.11
ACTS, I THINK IT'S CHAPTER 20,
IT SAID, 'MYRIADS OF PEOPLE CAME
00:22:28.11\00:22:32.31
TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD.' WELL,
IT WASN'T A HUNDRED THOUSAND.
00:22:32.31\00:22:35.32
SO YOU'LL SEE THAT WORD IS
SOMETIMES USED AS AN INDEFINITE
00:22:35.32\00:22:38.62
NUMBER. IT MAY,
SOMETIMES, MEAN TEN
00:22:38.62\00:22:40.52
THOUSAND AND
SOMETIMES IT CAN MEAN 100,000.
00:22:40.52\00:22:44.76
WILLIAM MILLER, WHO I AGREE WITH
ON THIS, HE BELIEVED THAT THAT
00:22:44.76\00:22:47.96
NUMBER WAS SAYING, TWO TIMES
200,000 - THAT WOULD BE 400,000.
00:22:47.96\00:22:54.14
WELL, IT IS INTERESTING THAT
IN THE SIEGE OF CONSTANTINOPLE
00:22:54.14\00:23:00.58
MEHMED HAD AN ARMY THAT NUMBERED
AT LEAST 350,000 AND SO IT'S
00:23:00.58\00:23:07.45
TALKING ABOUT THIS INCREDIBLE
ARMY ON HORSEBACK, BUT IT'S NOT
00:23:07.45\00:23:11.45
NECESSARILY GIVING
YOU A SPECIFIC NUMBER.
00:23:11.45\00:23:15.49
AND IT SAYS, "AND THUS I SAW
THE HORSES IN THE VISION," - HE
00:23:15.49\00:23:18.96
USED, PRINCIPALLY, CAVALRY
- "AND THEM THAT SAT ON THEM,
00:23:18.96\00:23:21.73
HAVING BREASTPLATES OF FIERY
RED, HYACINTH BLUE, AND SULFUR
00:23:21.73\00:23:25.73
YELLOW;" - THEY DID WEAR IRON
BREASTPLATES AND THEY DID HAVE
00:23:25.73\00:23:28.90
BLUE GARMENTS - "AND THE HEADS
OF THE HORSES WERE LIKE THE
00:23:28.90\00:23:32.74
HEADS OF LIONS; AND OUT OF THEIR
MOUTHS CAME FIRE, SMOKE, AND
00:23:32.74\00:23:36.78
BRIMSTONE." NOW,
MANY OF THE - MANY
00:23:36.78\00:23:39.81
HISTORIANS BELIEVE THIS IS
DESCRIBING THE INTRODUCTION OF
00:23:39.81\00:23:43.62
GUNPOWDER. THE
MUSLIMS WERE SOME OF THE
00:23:43.62\00:23:46.32
FIRST WHO BEGAN TO TAKE FROM THE
EAST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GUN POWDER
00:23:46.32\00:23:49.79
AND USE IT IN
WARFARE FOR CANNONS AND ARMS.
00:23:49.79\00:23:53.13
THERE WERE PRIMITIVE RIFLES, BUT
THEY SAW THE SMOKE AND THE FIRE
00:23:53.13\00:23:57.23
AND THE BRIMSTONE FIRING OUT
OF THE FRONT OF THESE HORSES AND
00:23:57.23\00:23:59.77
THEY'D TURN AROUND AND
FIRE BEHIND THEM, LIKE A GOOD
00:23:59.77\00:24:02.30
CHEYENNE SOLDIER, AND THEY'D SEE
THEM COMING FROM THE FRONT AND
00:24:02.30\00:24:05.04
THE BACK AND THEY'D HEAR THE
ROAR OF A LION - THEY COULDN'T
00:24:05.04\00:24:07.58
DESCRIBE - ARROWS DON'T MAKE
THAT NOISE WHEN YOU SHOOT THEM -
00:24:07.58\00:24:11.11
AND SO IT'S TALKING ABOUT IT'S
LIKE A ROAR COMING - "AND" - YOU
00:24:11.11\00:24:14.18
CAN READ THIS - "OUT OF THEIR
MOUTHS CAME FIRE, SMOKE AND
00:24:14.18\00:24:16.99
BRIMSTONE." AND I
THINK THAT THIS IS
00:24:16.99\00:24:19.82
DESCRIBING SOME OF THE EARLY
FIREARMS. I'VE ACTUALLY GOT
00:24:19.82\00:24:22.22
PICTURES, I THINK, THAT
YOU CAN SEE HERE ON THE SCREEN.
00:24:22.22\00:24:25.93
ONE ARTIST'S RENDITION OF AN
EARLY OTTOMAN CANNON - NOW THERE
00:24:25.93\00:24:29.96
YOU HAVE IT - FIRING - THEY
COULD FIRE - THEIR CANNON BALLS
00:24:29.96\00:24:33.57
WERE MADE OF STONE BACK THEN,
BUT IT WOULD FIRE ONE AND IT
00:24:33.57\00:24:36.91
JUST BLEW THE
WALLS TO SMITHEREENS.
00:24:36.91\00:24:40.94
IT COULD FIRE ONE MILE, WHICH
WAS A LOT BACK THEN - I THINK
00:24:40.94\00:24:44.51
THE GERMANS INVENTED A CANNON
THAT WOULD GO 20 MILES, BUT -
00:24:44.51\00:24:49.28
AND THEN SOME OF THE SMALL
ARMS - THE - EVEN THE EARLY
00:24:49.28\00:24:52.59
PAINTINGS, YOU CAN SEE THAT THE
OTTOMAN SOLDIERS, THEY DID HAVE
00:24:52.59\00:24:55.32
PRIMITIVE GUNS THAT THEY
USED BACK THEN AND THEY THOUGHT,
00:24:55.32\00:24:58.06
'WELL, MAYBE HE'S DESCRIBING
THIS IN VISION.' NOW WE GET TO
00:24:58.06\00:25:02.60
THE SEVENTH TRUMPET - THE THIRD
WOE - AND RIGHT NOW, FRIENDS,
00:25:02.60\00:25:07.77
JUST IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING,
UP UNTIL THIS MOMENT I'VE BEEN
00:25:07.77\00:25:10.41
TALKING ABOUT WHAT'S BEHIND US.
00:25:10.41\00:25:12.34
NOW I'M GETTING READY TO
TALK ABOUT WHAT'S AHEAD OF US -
00:25:12.34\00:25:15.18
OR WE'RE ON THE
THRESHOLD RIGHT NOW.
00:25:15.18\00:25:19.11
REVELATION 11, VERSE 15, IT
SAYS, "THEN THE SEVENTH ANGEL
00:25:19.11\00:25:23.99
SOUNDED:" - YOU KNOW, SEVERAL
THINGS HAPPENED BETWEEN THE
00:25:23.99\00:25:25.62
SECOND WOE - FIRST WOE/SECOND
WOE - AND THEN THE THIRD WOE -
00:25:25.62\00:25:29.32
BETWEEN THE FIFTH/SIXTH TRUMPET
THERE'S SEVERAL CHAPTERS, THEN
00:25:29.32\00:25:32.29
YOU GET TO THE SEVENTH TRUMPET.
"THEN THE SEVENTH ANGEL SOUNDED:
00:25:32.29\00:25:36.30
AND THERE WERE LOUD VOICES
IN HEAVEN, SAYING, 'THE KINGDOMS
00:25:36.30\00:25:39.53
OF THIS WORLD HAVE BECOME THE
KINGDOMS OF OUR LORD AND OF HIS
00:25:39.53\00:25:42.54
CHRIST, AND HE SHALL
REIGN FOREVER AND EVER!'...
00:25:42.54\00:25:45.61
THE NATIONS WERE ANGRY, AND YOUR
WRATH HAS COME," - IT'S TALKING
00:25:45.61\00:25:50.18
ABOUT A TIME OF UNPRECIPITATED
INTERNATIONAL TURMOIL - NOT A
00:25:50.18\00:25:54.22
NATION, THE NATIONS - "AND YOUR
WRATH HAS COME," - A TIME OF
00:25:54.22\00:25:58.09
JUDGMENT - "AND THE TIME OF
THE DEAD, THAT THEY SHOULD BE
00:25:58.09\00:26:00.92
JUDGED," - A TIME OF JUDGMENT -
"AND THAT YOU SHOULD REWARD YOUR
00:26:00.92\00:26:04.43
SERVANTS" - IT'S A TIME OF
REWARD - "THE PROPHETS AND THE
00:26:04.43\00:26:07.30
SAINTS," - AND THAT WOULD BE
A RESURRECTION. THIS IS SIMILAR
00:26:07.30\00:26:10.30
WITH WHAT'S HAPPENING IN DANIEL
12 AND THE END OF DANIEL 11 -
00:26:10.30\00:26:15.70
"AND THOSE WHO FEAR YOUR NAME,
SMALL AND GREAT," - AND SO, WITH
00:26:15.70\00:26:18.47
THAT INTRODUCTION, NOW,
I'M GOING TO JUMP TO DANIEL 11.
00:26:18.47\00:26:21.84
NOW, I SHOULD TELL YOU, AS WE GO
THERE, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO READ
00:26:21.84\00:26:26.78
ALL 45 VERSES AND EXPOUND ON
THEM, BUT I'M GOING TO JUST SHOW
00:26:26.78\00:26:30.92
YOU - I'M GOING TO CHERRY PICK A
FEW VERSES - I'LL JUST BE HONEST
00:26:30.92\00:26:33.99
WITH YOU - THAT ARE PRETTY EASY
TO UNDERSTAND, SO THAT WE CAN
00:26:33.99\00:26:36.93
GET TO THE VERSES
WE'RE CONSIDERING.
00:26:36.93\00:26:39.06
FOR INSTANCE, IF YOU LOOK IN
DANIEL 11, VERSE 2, IT'S TALKING
00:26:39.06\00:26:45.73
ABOUT PERSIAN KINGS: "AND NOW I
WILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH: BEHOLD,
00:26:45.73\00:26:51.37
THREE MORE KINGS WILL ARISE IN
PERSIA," - DANIEL IS HAVING THE
00:26:51.37\00:26:54.94
VISION DURING THE TIME OF, I
BELIEVE IT WAS IN THE TIME OF
00:26:54.94\00:26:59.35
CYRUS - "...I WILL TELL YOU THE
TRUTH: BEHOLD, THREE MORE KINGS
00:26:59.35\00:27:02.25
WILL ARISE IN PERSIA, AND THE
FOURTH SHALL BE FAR RICHER THAN
00:27:02.25\00:27:06.49
THEM ALL; BY HIS STRENGTH,
THROUGH HIS RICHES, HE SHALL
00:27:06.49\00:27:10.29
STIR UP AGAINST
THE REALM OF GREECE."
00:27:10.29\00:27:13.93
YOU'VE HEARD OF ARTAXERXES AND
HISTORY CALLS HIM XERXES I - AND
00:27:13.93\00:27:20.00
THIS KING, ANY OF YOU EVER HEARD
THE STORY ABOUT THE 300 SPARTAN
00:27:20.00\00:27:25.27
SOLDIERS THAT WERE ABLE TO
RESIST THE PERSIAN ADVANCE?
00:27:25.27\00:27:29.58
THIS IS THE XERXES THAT HAD
AN ARMY THAT THEY SAY NUMBERED
00:27:29.58\00:27:32.75
SOMEWHERE BETWEEN
600,000 AND ONE MILLION.
00:27:32.75\00:27:36.42
THAT IS A MASSIVE, MASSIVE
ARMY. HE INVADED GREECE, BUT HE
00:27:36.42\00:27:40.09
DIDN'T SUCCEED IN TAKING IT.
AND HE WAS VERY RICH AND THIS IS
00:27:40.09\00:27:43.76
WHAT'S BEING DESCRIBED
HERE IN DANIEL 11, VERSE 2.
00:27:43.76\00:27:48.56
AND JUMP OVER NOW TO VERSE 3,
DANIEL 11:3, "THEN A MIGHTY KING
00:27:48.56\00:27:53.77
SHALL ARISE, WHO SHALL RULE WITH
GREAT DOMINION, AND DO ACCORDING
00:27:53.77\00:27:58.87
TO HIS WILL. AND
WHEN HE HAS ARISEN, HIS
00:27:58.87\00:28:01.94
KINGDOM SHALL BE BROKEN UP AND
DIVIDED TOWARD THE FOUR WINDS."
00:28:01.94\00:28:05.11
WHO DO YOU THINK
THIS IS TALKING ABOUT?
00:28:05.11\00:28:06.85
THAT'S RIGHT, THAT'S ALEXANDER
THE GREAT, WHO WAS A MIGHTY KING
00:28:06.85\00:28:10.39
- INCREDIBLE GENERAL -
VERY YOUNG, CONSIDERING WHAT HE
00:28:10.39\00:28:13.62
ACCOMPLISHED - AND
HE CAME FROM THE NORTH.
00:28:13.62\00:28:17.29
MATTER OF FACT, SEVERAL OF THESE
KINGS, YOU'RE GOING TO FIND OUT,
00:28:17.29\00:28:19.13
ARE COMING DOWN FROM THE NORTH.
00:28:19.13\00:28:21.60
AND WHEN HE DIED - HE DIED
- THEY DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS A
00:28:21.60\00:28:26.00
COMBINATION OF MALARIA OR HE
DRANK TOO MUCH AND DIED THROUGH
00:28:26.00\00:28:30.67
SOME KIND OF ALCOHOL POISONING
- HIS KINGDOM WAS BROKEN UP.
00:28:30.67\00:28:33.98
THERE WERE DIFFERENT RUMORS
AND LEGENDS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.
00:28:33.98\00:28:38.01
SOME OF HIS GENERALS, WHEN THEY
SAW THAT IT LOOKED LIKE HE WAS
00:28:38.01\00:28:40.45
GOING TO DIE, SAID, 'WHO
WILL RULE IN YOUR PLACE?'
00:28:40.45\00:28:42.85
AND, OSTENSIBLY HE SAID, 'THE
STRONGEST.' AND, AT ONE POINT,
00:28:42.85\00:28:47.39
HE TRIED TO TAKE THE HAND OF ONE
OF HIS GENERALS AND PUT IT ON
00:28:47.39\00:28:49.96
THE HAND OF A CONCUBINE WHO WAS
PREGNANT AT THAT TIME WITH WHAT
00:28:49.96\00:28:52.69
WOULD BE A BOY, HOPING THAT HIS
DYNASTY WOULD CONTINUE, BUT THAT
00:28:52.69\00:28:56.26
DIDN'T WORK OUT AND IT ENDED UP
HIS KINGDOM WAS DIVIDED, AS THE
00:28:56.26\00:29:00.24
PROPHECY SAID, TOWARDS
THE FOUR WINDS OF HEAVEN.
00:29:00.24\00:29:03.87
THE FOUR GENERALS CARVED
UP - FIRST THEY TRIED TO DO IT
00:29:03.87\00:29:07.31
PEACEABLY AND THEY ENDED UP
ALL FIGHTING AMONG THEMSELVES
00:29:07.31\00:29:09.38
BECAUSE POWER CORRUPTS -
THEY WANTED MORE POWER - AND HIS
00:29:09.38\00:29:13.38
KINGDOM WAS DIVIDED
AMONG THE FOUR GENERALS.
00:29:13.38\00:29:15.85
YOU ALSO FIND THIS BEING
OUTLINED IN DANIEL'S CHAPTER 8
00:29:15.85\00:29:19.42
AS WELL - 7 AND 8 - AND
THOSE GENERALS BEING LYSIMACHUS,
00:29:19.42\00:29:25.29
CASSANDER,
PTOLEMY, AND SELEUCUS.
00:29:25.29\00:29:28.16
AND THOSE - YOU SEE A MAP
UP THERE ABOUT THE PINK IS ONE,
00:29:28.16\00:29:34.14
YOU'VE GOT A GOLD COLOR THERE,
YOU'VE GOT - AND CASSANDER, BY
00:29:34.14\00:29:37.84
THE WAY, IS THE PINK, LYSIMACHUS
IS THE GOLD, PTOLEMY IS THE
00:29:37.84\00:29:41.11
GREEN, AND WHAT DO YOU
CALL THAT LIGHT GREEN COLOR?
00:29:41.11\00:29:45.45
>>LIGHT GREEN.
>>YOU CALL IT LIGHT GREEN?
00:29:45.45\00:29:47.75
YES, THANK YOU, VERY MUCH.
GIRLS, I THOUGHT, HAD ABOUT
00:29:47.75\00:29:49.78
TWELVE DIFFERENT
NAMES FOR THAT ONE COLOR.
00:29:49.78\00:29:51.69
BUT WE'VE ONLY GOT ONE.
AND THEN, OF COURSE, THE DARK
00:29:51.69\00:29:56.02
GREEN WOULD BE THE PTOLEMY;
SELEUCUS IS THE LIGHT GREEN.
00:29:56.02\00:30:01.60
AND SO THOSE WERE
THE FOUR DIVISIONS.
00:30:01.60\00:30:03.37
NOW, I WANT YOU TO NOTICE, AS
YOU LOOK AT THE MAP, BEFORE WE
00:30:03.37\00:30:05.80
TAKE IT AWAY, THERE'S ONE LITTLE
STRIP OF LAND THAT CONNECTS
00:30:05.80\00:30:08.74
THEM. THAT
LITTLE STRIP OF LAND IS
00:30:08.74\00:30:11.24
CALLED ISRAEL, BECAUSE THEY'RE
IN SAUDI ARABIA, FROM WHERE
00:30:11.24\00:30:16.31
MOHAMMED CAME, IS A VAST DESERT
- MUCH OF IT WAS NOT EASY TO
00:30:16.31\00:30:21.45
INHABIT, AND WHENEVER THERE
WAS A BATTLE BETWEEN AFRICA AND
00:30:21.45\00:30:27.52
ASIA, THEY CROSSED
OVER THROUGH ISRAEL.
00:30:27.52\00:30:31.43
THEY OFTEN CAME
DOWN FROM THE NORTH.
00:30:31.43\00:30:33.56
MATTER OF FACT, I MIGHT PAUSE
HERE AND JUST BEAR THAT OUT A
00:30:33.56\00:30:36.67
LITTLE MORE. THIS IS
FURTHER DOWN IN MY NOTES
00:30:36.67\00:30:38.67
SO I'M GOING TO DIG
FOR IT A LITTLE BIT.
00:30:38.67\00:30:43.81
YEAH, IF YOU READ, FOR INSTANCE,
IN THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH CHAPTER
00:30:43.81\00:30:47.71
25, VERSE 9, "BEHOLD, I WILL
SEND AND TAKE ALL THE FAMILIES
00:30:47.71\00:30:53.45
OF THE NORTH," - NOW IT'S
IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THIS,
00:30:53.45\00:30:55.95
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO TALK
ABOUT THE KING OF THE NORTH AND
00:30:55.95\00:30:58.15
THE KING OF THE SOUTH - HE SAYS,
"I WILL SEND AND TAKE ALL THE
00:30:58.15\00:31:00.49
FAMILIES OF THE NORTH,' SAYS THE
LORD, 'AND NEBUCHADNEZZAR THE
00:31:00.49\00:31:04.26
KING OF BABYLON," - NOW, PUT THE
MAP BACK UP FOR ME FOR JUST A
00:31:04.26\00:31:07.73
MOMENT, PLEASE, SHERLE. YEAH,
YOU CAN SEE BABYLON IS ACTUALLY,
00:31:07.73\00:31:11.43
WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING FROM
A SATELLITE, BABYLON IS MORE
00:31:11.43\00:31:13.97
NORTHEAST AND EAST OF ISRAEL,
BUT THEY ALWAYS CAME IN FROM THE
00:31:13.97\00:31:20.14
NORTH BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T
CROSS THROUGH THE DESESRT.
00:31:20.14\00:31:22.78
THERE WAS ONE TIME WHEN
NEBUCHADNEZZAR WENT THE DIRECT
00:31:22.78\00:31:24.91
ROUTE AND TOOK A GREAT RISK AND
CROSSED THE DESERT BECAUSE HIS
00:31:24.91\00:31:27.22
FATHER DIED - HE HAD TO TAKE THE
KINGDOM BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE TOOK
00:31:27.22\00:31:30.15
IT AND HE RODE FULL BORE
THROUGH THE DESERT AND TOOK THE
00:31:30.15\00:31:33.12
SHORTCUT. BUT YOU COULD NEVER
TAKE AN ARMY THERE BECAUSE OF
00:31:33.12\00:31:35.72
THE EXPOSURE - YOU'D LOSE THEM.
AND THERE WAS NO FOOD ALONG THE
00:31:35.72\00:31:38.93
WAY AND SO THEY ALWAYS
CAME IN FROM THE NORTH.
00:31:38.93\00:31:41.56
AND YOU'LL NOTICE THAT
THESE KINGDOMS - BABYLON AND
00:31:41.56\00:31:45.63
MEDO-PERSIA AND GREECE AND ROME
- ALL CAME IN FROM THE NORTH.
00:31:45.63\00:31:49.84
YOU CAN ALSO READ THAT, BY THE
WAY, IN JEREMIAH 1:15; IT CALLS
00:31:49.84\00:31:53.51
IT 'KINGDOMS' FROM
THE NORTH THAT WOULD COME.
00:31:53.51\00:31:57.81
AND BEFORE I LEAVE THE SUBJECT
OF THE KING OF THE NORTH, SATAN
00:31:57.81\00:32:05.95
- THE KING OF THE NORTH IS
ULTIMATELY GOD, REMEMBER SATAN,
00:32:05.95\00:32:08.96
HE WANTED TO EXALT HIS
THRONE ABOVE THE THRONE OF GOD?
00:32:08.96\00:32:12.73
YOU READ IN ISAIAH 14:13, "FOR
YOU HAVE SAID IN YOUR HEART, 'I
00:32:12.73\00:32:15.80
WILL ASCEND INTO
HEAVEN. I WILL EXALT MY THRONE
00:32:15.80\00:32:18.87
ABOVE THE STARS OF GOD. I
WILL SIT ON THE MOUNT IN THE
00:32:18.87\00:32:22.14
CONGREGATION ON THE
FARTHEST SIDES OF THE NORTH."
00:32:22.14\00:32:25.94
THE ANCIENTS, AT NIGHT, NOTICED
THAT WHEN THEY LOOKED UP AT THE
00:32:25.94\00:32:29.18
HEAVENS, THE STARS CLOSER TO THE
POLE MOVED VERY SLOWLY, WHEREAS
00:32:29.18\00:32:34.82
THE ONES CLOSER TO THE EQUATOR
WERE SPINNING - THE STARS DIDN'T
00:32:34.82\00:32:37.45
MOVE, THE EARTH MOVED, BUT THEY
FIGURED THAT THE CENTER WAS UP
00:32:37.45\00:32:41.62
AT THE TOP WHERE IT WAS
MORE STABLE AND THEY SAW GOD AS
00:32:41.62\00:32:44.49
ENTHRONED IN THE NORTH.
OF COURSE, ISRAEL'S IN THE
00:32:44.49\00:32:47.50
NORTHERN HEMISPHERE, SO YOU
CAN SEE WHY THEY WOULD SEE THAT.
00:32:47.50\00:32:50.47
AND SO, THE KING OF THE NORTH
ON EARTH - SEE, JESUS SAID 'THE
00:32:50.47\00:32:54.04
KING OF THIS WORLD' BECAUSE
THE DEVIL TRIED TO HIJACK OUR
00:32:54.04\00:32:56.00
PLANET. HE WANTS TO
BE THE KING OF THE NORTH.
00:32:56.00\00:32:59.37
AND SO, IN THESE PROPHECIES,
THE KING OF THE NORTH IS TALKING
00:32:59.37\00:33:01.58
ABOUT EARTHLY KINGS THAT WANT
TO CONQUER GOD'S PEOPLE THAT ARE
00:33:01.58\00:33:05.75
TAKING THE PLACE OF
GOD. DID THAT ALL MAKE SENSE?
00:33:05.75\00:33:08.38
I KNOW I'M TALKING REALLY QUICK
BECAUSE I'VE GOT A LOT TO COVER
00:33:08.38\00:33:10.22
AND I'M LOOKING AT THE CLOCK.
ALRIGHT, WE TALKED A LITTLE
00:33:10.22\00:33:13.89
ABOUT ALEXANDER THE GREAT -
GO IN DANIEL 11 TO VERSE 20.
00:33:13.89\00:33:19.13
NOW, I TOLD YOU I CAN'T
COVER IT ALL SO I'M JUMPING.
00:33:19.13\00:33:22.76
DANIEL 11:20, "THERE SHALL ARISE
IN HIS PLACE" - THIS IS AFTER
00:33:22.76\00:33:27.90
THE GREEKS FELL, IN THE NORTH
AT LEAST, THE GREEKS FELL TO THE
00:33:27.90\00:33:32.01
ROMANS. THEY STILL HAD THE
SOUTHERN KINGDOM THERE IN EGYPT.
00:33:32.01\00:33:35.81
IT SAYS, "THERE SHALL ARISE IN
HIS PLACE ONE WHO IMPOSES TAXES
00:33:35.81\00:33:40.05
ON THE GLORIOUS KINGDOM;" -
WELL, THIS IS REALLY EASY TO
00:33:40.05\00:33:43.02
FIGURE OUT BECAUSE YOU FIND
THE ANSWER TO WHO THIS IS RIGHT
00:33:43.02\00:33:46.19
THERE IN LUKE 2:1, "AND IT CAME
TO PASS IN THOSE DAYS THAT A
00:33:46.19\00:33:50.89
DECREE WENT OUT FROM CAESAR
AUGUSTUS THAT ALL THE WORLD
00:33:50.89\00:33:55.66
SHOULD BE TAXED."
AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT
00:33:55.66\00:33:58.23
AUGUSTUS CAESAR
DID. MATTER OF FACT, IT'S
00:33:58.23\00:33:59.83
MENTIONED TWICE IN THE BIBLE.
LOOK IN ACTS 5:37, "AFTER THIS
00:33:59.83\00:34:04.61
MAN, JUDAS OF GALILEE ROSE
UP IN THE DAYS OF THE TAXING."
00:34:04.61\00:34:08.58
IT WAS SO BIG, THE TAXING HE DID
WAS, SORT OF, A UNIVERSAL TAXING
00:34:08.58\00:34:11.95
THAT IT HAD A HIGH POINT IN
HISTORY SO THE JEWS REFERRED TO
00:34:11.95\00:34:14.82
IT - 'OH YEAH, THE DAYS OF THE
TAXING' - AND AUGUSTUS CAESAR,
00:34:14.82\00:34:19.32
HE BASICALLY TOOK A CENSUS
OF THE WHOLE KINGDOM SO HE COULD
00:34:19.32\00:34:23.53
ACCURATELY IMPOSE
TAXES ON EVERYBODY.
00:34:23.53\00:34:27.66
AND IT TALKS
ABOUT HIM IN DANIEL 11.
00:34:27.66\00:34:31.37
SO NOW WE'VE TRANSITIONED,
YOU CAN SEE, TO WHERE THE ROMANS
00:34:31.37\00:34:33.94
HAVE REPLACED THE
GREEKS IN THE NORTH.
00:34:33.94\00:34:36.37
THEN YOU GET TO DANIEL 11:25,
"HE SHALL STIR UP HIS POWER AND
00:34:36.37\00:34:41.74
HIS COURAGE AGAINST THE KING
OF THE SOUTH WITH A GREAT ARMY.
00:34:41.74\00:34:45.78
AND THE KING OF THE SOUTH SHALL
BE STIRRED UP TO BATTLE WITH A
00:34:45.78\00:34:48.22
VERY GREAT AND MIGHTY ARMY;
BUT HE SHALL NOT STAND, FOR THEY
00:34:48.22\00:34:51.99
SHALL DEVISE PLANS AGAINST HIM."
00:34:51.99\00:34:54.06
MANY COMMENTATORS BELIEVE THIS
IS DESCRIBING WHEN - HOW THE
00:34:54.06\00:34:57.83
ROMAN POWER HAS TRANSITIONED
INTO THE ROMAN CHURCH, AFTER
00:34:57.83\00:35:01.76
AUGUSTUS CAESAR, ABOUT THE TIME
OF JUSTINIAN, CHRISTIANITY WAS
00:35:01.76\00:35:05.57
LEGALIZED DURING THE TIME
OF CONSTANTINE, AND NOW IT'S
00:35:05.57\00:35:08.90
TRANSITIONING MORE INTO A
SPIRITUAL KINGDOM IN THE NORTH
00:35:08.90\00:35:11.71
THAT'S FIGHTING WITH A SPIRITUAL
KINGDOM IN THE SOUTH, ISLAM,
00:35:11.71\00:35:16.01
THAT HAD TAKEN THE HOLY LAND,
NAMELY, THE CRUSADES ARE BEING
00:35:16.01\00:35:20.65
DESCRIBED HERE IN DANIEL
11, VERSE 25 - MIGHTY ARMIES
00:35:20.65\00:35:25.65
CROSSING THE OCEAN, THE KING
OF THE NORTH AGAINST THE KING OF
00:35:25.65\00:35:28.49
THE SOUTH - BUT DON'T MISS THAT
- THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT - I'VE
00:35:28.49\00:35:32.96
GOT TO TAKE A BREATH AND MAKE
SURE WE ALL TAKE A PIT STOP HERE
00:35:32.96\00:35:35.86
- I WANT YOU TO - BECAUSE
I KNOW I'M JUST GOING 'AAAH'.
00:35:35.86\00:35:39.70
IT STARTS OUT TALKING ABOUT
POLITICAL BATTLES AND KINGDOMS,
00:35:39.70\00:35:45.21
BUT WHEN YOU GET INTO THE TIME
OF JESUS, IT STARTS TURNING INTO
00:35:45.21\00:35:49.74
SPIRITUAL KINGDOM, BECAUSE THE
NATION OF ISRAEL - CHRIST SAID,
00:35:49.74\00:35:55.22
YOU KNOW, 'MY KINGDOM
IS NOT OF THIS WORLD.'
00:35:55.22\00:35:57.59
HE SAID, 'THE KINGDOM
OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.'
00:35:57.59\00:36:00.29
AND NOW IT BECAME A
BATTLE FOR WHO HAS THE TRUTH.
00:36:00.29\00:36:03.69
THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE BEAST
POWER - HAVE YOU READ DANIEL 8?
00:36:03.69\00:36:06.63
CAST THE TRUTH TO THE
GROUND AND PRACTICE AND PROSPER.
00:36:06.63\00:36:11.07
CLEANSING OF THE SANCTUARY
IS THE RESTORING OF TRUTH ABOUT
00:36:11.07\00:36:15.90
GOD, AS WELL AS
MANY OTHER THINGS.
00:36:15.90\00:36:18.07
SO IT'S - THIS IS ALL DEALING
WITH THE BIG BATTLE FOR THE
00:36:18.07\00:36:21.18
TRUTH, BECAUSE THE
TRUTH IS WHAT SAVES.
00:36:21.18\00:36:23.18
IT'S THE GOSPEL THAT SETS
PEOPLE FREE - SETS PEOPLE FREE.
00:36:23.18\00:36:27.18
SO THEN YOU GET TO DANIEL 11:33
- NO, I'M SORRY, DANIEL 11:31 -
00:36:27.18\00:36:34.12
"AND FORCES SHALL BE MUSTERED BY
HIM, AND THEY SHALL DEFILE THE
00:36:34.12\00:36:38.96
SANCTUARY FORTRESS; THEN
THEY SHALL TAKE AWAY THE DAILY
00:36:38.96\00:36:42.33
SACRIFICES, AND PLACE THERE
THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION."
00:36:42.33\00:36:46.90
- THIS IS DESCRIBING WHAT
WAS HAPPENING WHERE - WHEN
00:36:46.90\00:36:49.87
CATHOLICISM BECAME A POWER -
IT COMPROMISED - IT'S THE BIG
00:36:49.87\00:36:54.01
CATHOLIC
COMPROMISE OF THE GOSPEL.
00:36:54.01\00:36:55.98
IT'S WHAT THE
REFORMATION WAS ALL ABOUT.
00:36:55.98\00:36:57.98
THEY BEGAN TO - THEY WERE
PRAYING TO IDOLS, THEY WERE, YOU
00:36:57.98\00:37:01.68
KNOW, SELLING SALVATION WITH
INDULGENCES AND IT BECAME WORKS
00:37:01.68\00:37:05.59
ORIENTED AND TRANSUBSTANTIATION
AND SO MANY OF THESE DOCTRINES
00:37:05.59\00:37:10.26
THAT WERE UNCHRISTIAN,
SLIPPED INTO THE CHURCH.
00:37:10.26\00:37:14.56
WELL THEN, YOU JUMP TO VERSE
33 - IN THE FACE OF THIS GREAT
00:37:14.56\00:37:18.80
CATHOLIC COMPROMISE IS THE
REFORMATION, AND I'LL READ THERE
00:37:18.80\00:37:25.14
- AND I'LL READ THROUGH VERSE
35, "AND THOSE OF THE PEOPLE WHO
00:37:25.14\00:37:28.84
UNDERSTAND SHALL INSTRUCT MANY;
YET FOR MANY DAYS" - A DAY IS
00:37:28.84\00:37:32.88
WHAT? >>A YEAR.
00:37:32.88\00:37:34.55
>>A YEAR. FOR MANY YEARS - "THEY
SHALL FALL BY SWORD AND FLAME,
00:37:34.55\00:37:39.85
BY CAPTIVITY AND PLUNDERING."
- THIS IS DESCRIBING WHAT
00:37:39.85\00:37:44.69
BELIEVERS WENT THROUGH DURING
THAT TIME OF GREAT COMPROMISE.
00:37:44.69\00:37:48.10
JESUS SAID, 'YOU'LL
BE HATED OF ALL NATIONS.'
00:37:48.10\00:37:50.43
IT'S DESCRIBING A TIME
OF 1,260 YEARS OF SUFFERING
00:37:50.43\00:37:54.60
AND PERSECUTION THAT
THE CHURCH WOULD GO THROUGH.
00:37:54.60\00:37:57.67
YOU CAN READ VERSE 34 OF DANIEL,
"NOW WHEN THEY FALL, THEY SHALL
00:37:57.67\00:38:01.28
BE AIDED WITH A LITTLE
HELP;" - GOD'LL SUSTAIN THEM.
00:38:01.28\00:38:03.91
IT'S LIKE THE CHURCH WAS STILL
PROPHESYING, BUT IT WAS CLOTHED
00:38:03.91\00:38:06.55
IN SACKCLOTH. GOD
HELPED THEM, BUT IT WAS
00:38:06.55\00:38:09.02
RESTRICTED BECAUSE THERE'S
THIS BATTLE GOING ON BETWEEN THE
00:38:09.02\00:38:12.19
DEVIL AND HIS ANGELS AND GOD'S
FORCES. "AND SOME OF THOSE OF
00:38:12.19\00:38:17.36
UNDERSTANDING SHALL FALL," -
A NUMBER OF MARTYRS FELL - "TO
00:38:17.36\00:38:21.33
REFINE THEM, PURIFY THEM, AND
MAKE THEM WHITE, UNTIL THE TIME
00:38:21.33\00:38:25.10
OF THE END; BECAUSE IT IS
STILL FOR THE APPOINTED TIME."
00:38:25.10\00:38:28.07
IT'S SAYING, 'THIS
WON'T LAST FOREVER.
00:38:28.07\00:38:29.84
THE END IS GOING TO COME.' GO
DOWN TO VERSE 36 - THEN IT SAYS
00:38:29.84\00:38:35.74
- DANIEL 11:36, "THEN THE KING
SHALL DO ACCORDING TO THIS OWN
00:38:35.74\00:38:39.01
WILL: HE SHALL EXALT AND
MAGNIFY HIMSELF ABOVE EVERY GOD,
00:38:39.01\00:38:43.82
- WE'VE READ IN REVELATION
17 ABOUT THIS RELIGIOUS SYSTEM
00:38:43.82\00:38:46.69
THAT WOULD SPEAK BLASPHEMIES,
PUTTING HERSELF IN THE NAME OF
00:38:46.69\00:38:51.23
GOD - "...SPEAK
BLASPHEMIES AGAINST THE GOD OF
00:38:51.23\00:38:55.36
GODS," - WHO IS THAT? -
"AND SHALL PROSPER TILL THE
00:38:55.36\00:38:58.27
WRATH HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED;
FOR WHAT HAS BEEN DETERMINED
00:38:58.27\00:39:01.24
SHALL BE DONE." IT
WON'T LAST FOREVER.
00:39:01.24\00:39:03.57
THIS IS TALKING ABOUT A
REVIVAL OF PAPACY AND THE - THE
00:39:03.57\00:39:07.64
ARROGANCE OF PUTTING
THEMSELVES IN THE PLACE OF GOD.
00:39:07.64\00:39:10.51
NOW, YOU NOTICE, WE'VE GONE TO
DANIEL 11:36; NOW WE'RE GETTING
00:39:10.51\00:39:14.98
TO THE MAIN PASSAGE THAT WE
CAN - WE CONSIDERED EARLIER, AND
00:39:14.98\00:39:20.09
THAT'S DANIEL 11, WE'RE GOING
TO LOOK AT VERSES 40 TO 45.
00:39:20.09\00:39:24.29
NOW, AT THAT TIME - THIS IS A
PROPHECY OF THE END TIME - "AT
00:39:24.29\00:39:28.96
THE TIME OF THE END" - BY THE
WAY, THAT'S WHEN WE'RE LIVING
00:39:28.96\00:39:32.83
NOW - THE KING OF THE SOUTH WILL
ATTACK THE KING OF THE NORTH.
00:39:32.83\00:39:39.21
ALRIGHT, I THINK THE
KING OF THE SOUTH IS ISLAM.
00:39:39.21\00:39:44.08
I JUST LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENED
THROUGH HISTORY - THE FIRST WOE,
00:39:44.08\00:39:48.12
THE SECOND WOE - IT WAS THE
SPREAD OF ISLAM - THE THIRD WOE
00:39:48.12\00:39:51.89
- WHY DID THE PROPHET
SEPARATE OUT THOSE THREE WOES?
00:39:51.89\00:39:56.86
IS THE BATTLE BETWEEN THE SONS
OF ISHMAEL AND THE DESCENDANTS
00:39:56.86\00:40:00.60
OF ISAAC - THAT ARE NOW THE
TWO GREAT RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD
00:40:00.60\00:40:04.60
TODAY, AND IT IS A VERY
POWERFUL, WEALTHY, GROWING
00:40:04.60\00:40:07.94
RELIGIOUS POWER,
BUT IT'S NOT THE TRUTH.
00:40:07.94\00:40:12.21
AND SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN
- NOW, IF YOU SAY, 'PASTOR DOUG,
00:40:12.21\00:40:14.21
WHAT'S THE ATTACK GOING
TO LOOK LIKE?' I DON'T KNOW.
00:40:14.21\00:40:18.98
SOME MIGHT HAVE THOUGHT IT
WAS THE TWIN TOWERS, BUT I THINK
00:40:18.98\00:40:21.92
IT'S GOING TO BE
BIGGER THAN THAT.
00:40:21.92\00:40:23.15
SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN -
YOU KNOW, RIGHT NOW, THE LEADERS
00:40:23.15\00:40:25.42
OF THE WESTERN WORLD ARE
VERY CONCILIATORY TOWARD ISLAM
00:40:25.42\00:40:29.92
BECAUSE THEY KNOW, IF THERE'S
AN INCIDENT, THAT THE FEELINGS
00:40:29.92\00:40:35.20
BETWEEN THE PEOPLE OF THESE
VARYING RELIGIONS - THESE TWO
00:40:35.20\00:40:38.73
PRINCIPLE RELIGIONS - ARE
GROWING THREADBARE, AND IF THERE
00:40:38.73\00:40:44.14
IS SOME MAJOR ASSAULT - I READ,
LAST WEEK, IN THE NEWS, THAT
00:40:44.14\00:40:49.58
THERE HAS BEEN CHATTER,
ACCORDING TO THE CIA OR HOMELAND
00:40:49.58\00:40:52.58
SECURITY, THAT THEY HEAR THAT
ISIS IS THREATENING AN ATTACK ON
00:40:52.58\00:40:56.45
ROME, MAYBE EVEN THE
COLISEUM OR THE VATICAN.
00:40:56.45\00:41:00.26
NOW JUST - I'M NOT
MAKING THIS STUFF UP, FRIENDS.
00:41:00.26\00:41:02.32
YOU CAN READ - ANYONE
ELSE READ THESE THINGS?
00:41:02.32\00:41:05.29
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF ISIS
ASSASSINATES THIS BELOVED POPE?
00:41:05.29\00:41:13.00
DO YOU THINK THAT THE WORLD
IS GOING TO SIT BACK AND SAY,
00:41:13.00\00:41:15.64
'LET'S JUST ALL LOVE EACH OTHER;
IT'S JUST A FEW RADICALS'?
00:41:15.64\00:41:18.07
WHAT WOULD IT TAKE?
00:41:18.07\00:41:19.61
I DON'T KNOW, BUT I'M SAYING
THAT THERE COULD BE SOME EVENT
00:41:19.61\00:41:22.81
THAT WOULD TRIGGER - YOU KNOW,
IF THE FLOW OF OIL IS SOMEHOW
00:41:22.81\00:41:28.55
CUT OFF, PEOPLE WILL PUT UP
ALL KINDS OF THINGS ON THE NEWS.
00:41:28.55\00:41:33.62
PEOPLE WILL WATCH ABOUT
DIFFERENT TERRORIST THINGS THAT
00:41:33.62\00:41:35.76
ARE OUT THERE
HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE.
00:41:35.76\00:41:38.03
I HEARD SOMEONE SAY ONCE,
'WHEN YOU'RE OUT OF A JOB IT'S A
00:41:38.03\00:41:41.96
RECESSION, WHEN I'M OUT OF A JOB
IT'S A DEPRESSION.' (LAUGHTER)
00:41:41.96\00:41:45.87
AND, AS LONG AS IT'S OUT THERE
SOMEWHERE - BUT IF ALL OF A
00:41:45.87\00:41:49.24
SUDDEN YOU CAN'T BUY STUFF AT
THE STORE AND YOU CAN'T GET YOUR
00:41:49.24\00:41:52.11
GAS AT THE PUMP, YOU'RE GOING TO
- SOMEONE IN POLITICS SAYS, YOU
00:41:52.11\00:41:55.24
KNOW, 'WE NEED TO
GET A FORCE TOGETHER.
00:41:55.24\00:41:56.85
WE NEED TO GET A COALITION FROM
EUROPE AND WE NEED TO PUT AN END
00:41:56.85\00:42:00.92
TO THIS.' FOLKS ARE GOING TO GO,
'YEAH, IF IT'S GOING TO PUT GAS
00:42:00.92\00:42:03.95
IN MY TANK, LET'S DO IT.' AND IF
WE'RE OUTRAGED BECAUSE WE FEEL
00:42:03.95\00:42:10.93
LIKE CHRISTIANITY IS BEING
ATTACKED OR OUR WAY OF LIFE IS
00:42:10.93\00:42:13.26
BEING ATTACKED - BUT SOMETHING'S
GOING TO HAPPEN WHERE IT SAYS
00:42:13.26\00:42:16.46
THE KING OF THE SOUTH WILL
DO SOMETHING TO PROVOKE - SOME
00:42:16.46\00:42:19.07
MAJOR INCIDENT -
THE KING OF THE NORTH.
00:42:19.07\00:42:22.04
DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THAT
WILL BE, BUT THE KING OF THE
00:42:22.04\00:42:24.51
NORTH IS NOT GOING TO SIT BY
ANYMORE AND TALK ABOUT PEACE.
00:42:24.51\00:42:27.78
YOU READ HERE, IT SAYS,
'THE KING OF THE NORTH WILL COME
00:42:27.78\00:42:30.55
AGAINST HIM LIKE A WHIRLWIND.'
NOW, YOU KNOW, PROPHECY TELLS US
00:42:30.55\00:42:35.42
OTHER PLACES THAT THERE'LL
BE A CONFEDERACY OF CHRISTIANS -
00:42:35.42\00:42:38.59
PROTESTANTS IN NORTH AMERICA
WILL BE FOREMOST IN STRETCHING
00:42:38.59\00:42:41.99
THEIR HAND ACROSS THE ABYSS TO
CLASP THE HAND OF CATHOLICISM,
00:42:41.99\00:42:46.63
AND THEN, JOINED WITH
SPIRITUALISM UNDER THAT
00:42:46.63\00:42:49.46
THREE-FOLD UNION, THEY'RE GOING
TO COMPEL THE WORLD TO BELIEVE A
00:42:49.46\00:42:53.23
CERTAIN WAY. YOU
KNOW, IT'S HARD FOR YOU TO
00:42:53.23\00:42:56.14
TAKE POWERFUL MOVES LIKE THAT
UNLESS THERE'S SOME SCARY EVENT.
00:42:56.14\00:43:00.91
PEOPLE GET SCARED AND THEY'LL
SACRIFICE ALL KINDS OF FREEDOM.
00:43:00.91\00:43:04.25
AND I THINK THAT AN ATTACK
FROM ISLAM - A MAJOR ATTACK -
00:43:04.25\00:43:09.48
IS GOING TO PRECIPITATE
A COALITION OF CHRISTIANS.
00:43:09.48\00:43:13.42
IT'S NOT AN ACCIDENT - IS IT
JUST ME OR HAVE YOU NOTICED THE
00:43:13.42\00:43:15.86
POPE - HIS FIRST TIME - FRANCIS
- VISITING WITH A LEADER OF THE
00:43:15.86\00:43:19.93
RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH, GREEK
ORTHODOX CHURCH, LEADERS OF THE
00:43:19.93\00:43:25.47
CHARISMATIC CHURCH IN NORTH
AMERICA, LEADING PROTESTANTS IN
00:43:25.47\00:43:28.57
NORTH AMERICA, PROTESTANTS
IN SOUTH AMERICA - HE COMES FROM
00:43:28.57\00:43:31.74
SOUTH AMERICA. THIS
POPE HAS DONE MORE AND MADE
00:43:31.74\00:43:34.54
MORE OVERTURES TO BRING TOGETHER
CHRISTIANS FROM AROUND THE
00:43:34.54\00:43:37.61
WORLD. WHY?
00:43:37.61\00:43:39.05
BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT HISTORY
IS GOING TO REPEAT ITSELF - THAT
00:43:39.05\00:43:43.35
ISLAM IS GROWING, THEY ARE
LOSING A FOOTHOLD IN EUROPE,
00:43:43.35\00:43:46.29
BOTH THROUGH IMMIGRATION
AND MULTIPLICATION, ISLAM IS
00:43:46.29\00:43:50.53
SPREADING THROUGH EUROPE AND
THEY REALIZE THAT THE FUTURE FOR
00:43:50.53\00:43:53.83
CHRISTIANITY IS AT RISK AND IT'S
GOING TO TAKE SOME MAJOR EVENT.
00:43:53.83\00:43:59.93
YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT PROUD OF IT,
BUT IT IS A FACT THAT, DURING
00:43:59.93\00:44:03.91
WORLD WAR II WHEN WE WERE
ATTACKED AT PEARL HARBOR, ALL OF
00:44:03.91\00:44:07.18
A SUDDEN, OUR JAPANESE NEIGHBORS
THAT WE ALL LOVED, WERE PUT IN
00:44:07.18\00:44:10.98
CAMPS. AND NOW
WE'RE HORRIFIED LOOKING
00:44:10.98\00:44:13.95
BACK AND WE THINK, 'OH, THAT
WOULD NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.' AND
00:44:13.95\00:44:17.29
WHAT HAPPENED IN GERMANY
WITH THE NAZIS; THAT WOULD
00:44:17.29\00:44:19.15
NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.
WELL, PROPHECY TELLS US A TIME
00:44:19.15\00:44:22.46
OF TROUBLE IS COMING SUCH AS
THERE NEVER HAS BEEN AND, YOU
00:44:22.46\00:44:24.69
KNOW, HUMAN
NATURE HAS NOT CHANGED.
00:44:24.69\00:44:28.16
WE'VE BECOME MORE SOPHISTICATED,
BUT PEOPLE ARE STILL KILLING
00:44:28.16\00:44:32.13
EACH OTHER IN
DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE WORLD.
00:44:32.13\00:44:34.17
LET ME KEEP READING, "...THE
NORTH SHALL COME AGAINST HIM" -
00:44:34.17\00:44:37.54
I'M IN DANIEL CHAPTER 11, STILL
VERSE 40 - "LIKE A WHIRLWIND,
00:44:37.54\00:44:42.51
WITH CHARIOTS, HORSEMEN,
AND WITH MANY SHIPS;" -
00:44:42.51\00:44:45.05
THIS CAN'T BE UNDERSTOOD.
NOW, I DOUBT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
00:44:45.05\00:44:47.48
CHARIOTS - THERE'LL PROBABLY
BE HUMVEES AND TANKS AND I - YOU
00:44:47.48\00:44:49.88
KNOW, THEY'RE TRYING TO DESCRIBE
MOVING, MASSIVE MILITARY, BUT A
00:44:49.88\00:44:55.29
GREAT CONFEDERACY OF MILITARY -
MANY SHIPS AND A NAVY WILL ENTER
00:44:55.29\00:44:59.86
THE COUNTRIES - NOT
COUNTRY - COUNTRIES.
00:44:59.86\00:45:03.60
THIS MIGHT BE SOME OF
THE ISLAMIC COUNTRIES.
00:45:03.60\00:45:07.47
BUT YOU REALIZE, IT'S NOT JUST
TERRORISM THAT'S HAPPENING IN
00:45:07.47\00:45:10.61
EUROPE AND AMERICA, IT'S IN
AFRICA, IT'S IN INDIA, IT'S IN
00:45:10.61\00:45:14.21
INDONESIA, IT'S IN THE
PHILIPPINES - EVERYWHERE I'VE
00:45:14.21\00:45:16.18
GONE IN THE WORLD THEY
ARE HAVING FRICTION WITH THEIR
00:45:16.18\00:45:20.15
MUSLIM NEIGHBORS. NOW
THIS MAY NOT HAPPEN NEXT
00:45:20.15\00:45:23.65
YEAR - IT COULD HAPPEN IN A
MONTH - I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT'S
00:45:23.65\00:45:26.55
GOING TO HAPPEN, BUT I
DON'T THINK THE PROPHECY'S
00:45:26.55\00:45:28.72
GOING TO FAIL. I
THINK IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
00:45:28.72\00:45:31.23
THIS'LL BE THE THIRD WOE - WHAT
THEY CALL THIS THIRD CALIPHATE.
00:45:31.23\00:45:36.46
YOU KNOW, THEY HAD THE FIRST ONE
THAT TOOK PLACE THERE AGAINST
00:45:36.46\00:45:40.14
THE EASTERN CHRISTIANITY, AND
THEN WESTERN CHRISTIANITY AND
00:45:40.14\00:45:43.61
THEN - MAYBE THE U.S.
WE ALREADY KNOW HOW THEY
00:45:43.61\00:45:48.51
FEEL, IF YOU READ THE NEWS.
KEEP READING - AND IT GOES ON TO
00:45:48.51\00:45:52.11
SAY "...MANY COUNTRIES SHALL
BE OVERTHROWN; BUT THESE SHALL
00:45:52.11\00:45:54.92
ESCAPE FROM HIS HAND:" - THIS
IS A LITTLE BIT MYSTERIOUS, BUT
00:45:54.92\00:45:58.22
I'LL GIVE YOU A THEORY:
EDOM, MOAB, AND THE PROMINENT
00:45:58.22\00:46:01.26
PEOPLE OF AMMON."
NOW, THOSE THREE COUNTRIES
00:46:01.26\00:46:05.83
BORDERED ISRAEL -
EDOM, MOAB, AND AMMON.
00:46:05.83\00:46:09.03
IF YOU LOOK IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THAT KING
00:46:09.03\00:46:12.03
JEHOSHOPHAT - GREAT KING - WAS
ATTACKED BY A CONFEDERACY THAT
00:46:12.03\00:46:17.41
SAYS THE MOABITES, THE
AMMONITES, AND THE PEOPLE OF
00:46:17.41\00:46:19.67
MOUNT SEIR - MOUNT SEIR
IS THE EDOMITES - SAME GROUP.
00:46:19.67\00:46:23.35
SAME THREE-FOLD UNION ATTACKED.
YOU REMEMBER THE STORY WHERE
00:46:23.35\00:46:26.45
JEHOSHOPHAT WENT OUT IN
THE BATTLE AND GOD SAID, 'DON'T
00:46:26.45\00:46:28.25
FIGHT, HAVE THE PRIESTS
SING.' AND THE PRIESTS WENT OUT
00:46:28.25\00:46:31.09
SINGING, AND WHILE THEY WENT OUT
SINGING, THE MOABITES, EDOMITES,
00:46:31.09\00:46:34.19
AND AMALEKITES ALL TURNED
ON EACH OTHER AND ATTACKED EACH
00:46:34.19\00:46:37.79
OTHER, SO HE NEVER HAD TO
ACTUALLY ENGAGE THEM IN BATTLE.
00:46:37.79\00:46:41.70
AND YOU CAN READ ABOUT THAT
IN YOUR BIBLE - I CAN'T REMEMBER
00:46:41.70\00:46:44.83
THE VERSE, BUT
TRUST ME, IT'S IN THERE.
00:46:44.83\00:46:47.10
BUT, EVEN MORE THAN THAT, MOAB,
EDOM, AND AMMON WERE ALL RELATED
00:46:47.10\00:46:54.14
TO ABRAHAM AND
THEY'RE RELATED TO ISLAM.
00:46:54.14\00:46:58.78
THEY ALL BELIEVED
IN ONE GOD, ORIGINALLY.
00:46:58.78\00:47:00.85
THEY PRACTICED CIRCUMCISION
- THEY WERE SORT OF CONNECTED.
00:47:00.85\00:47:04.75
AND SO, THE REASON THAT IT MAY
BE SAYING THAT EDOM, MOAB, AND
00:47:04.75\00:47:07.49
AMMON SHALL ESCAPE IS THERE
MAY BE BIG GROUPS THAT WILL COME
00:47:07.49\00:47:11.13
OVER AND SAY, 'LOOK, DON'T
ATTACK US, WE WANT PEACE FROM
00:47:11.13\00:47:14.40
THE MUSLIM WORLD.' OR 'WE'LL
CONVERT.' I DON'T KNOW WHAT
00:47:14.40\00:47:17.77
THEY'LL SAY, BUT THERE'S GOING
TO BE SOME COUNTRIES THAT WILL
00:47:17.77\00:47:19.93
ESCAPE. I DON'T
THINK IT'S THE SAME
00:47:19.93\00:47:21.77
MODERN COUNTRIES BECAUSE
THEY DON'T EVEN EXIST NOW, SO WE
00:47:21.77\00:47:24.87
MUST BE TALKING
ABOUT SPIRITUAL TERMS.
00:47:24.87\00:47:26.74
THE EDOMITES, MOABITES,
AND AMMONITES HAVE ALL BEEN
00:47:26.74\00:47:28.64
CONQUERED,
INTERMARRIED, OR DISAPPEARED.
00:47:28.64\00:47:31.05
"HE SHALL STRETCH OUT HIS HAND
AGAINST THE COUNTRIES, AND THE
00:47:31.05\00:47:34.92
LAND OF EGYPT SHALL NOT ESCAPE."
- EGYPT WAS THE LAST HOLDOUT
00:47:34.92\00:47:37.89
FOR THE KING OF THE SOUTH -
"HE SHALL HAVE POWER OVER THE
00:47:37.89\00:47:41.46
TREASURES OF GOLD AND SILVER,
AND OVER ALL THE PRECIOUS
00:47:41.46\00:47:44.33
THINGS" - THIS IS SAYING HE'LL
HAVE CONTROL OF THE WEALTH.
00:47:44.33\00:47:48.13
YOU KNOW, THAT WEALTH, IT'S
INTERESTING THAT SO MUCH OF THE
00:47:48.13\00:47:52.17
WORLD TODAY IS POWERED BY
OIL AND THAT OIL IS WHERE IT IS
00:47:52.17\00:47:59.17
BECAUSE OF A WORLD BEING
CURSED BACK IN THE DAYS OF NOAH.
00:47:59.17\00:48:02.98
AND THAT'S ALMOST LIKE THE BLOOD
OF A CURSED WORLD IS WHAT'S
00:48:02.98\00:48:06.38
POWERING EVERYTHING.
BUT IT TRANSLATES INTO
00:48:06.38\00:48:09.78
TREMENDOUS WEALTH. AND I
KNOW THE POLITICIANS WILL
00:48:09.78\00:48:13.49
ALWAYS ARGUE THAT WE ENTERED
THE GULF FOR, YOU KNOW, PURELY
00:48:13.49\00:48:16.42
MORAL REASONS, BUT I CAN ALMOST
GUARANTEE YOU THAT THEY WERE
00:48:16.42\00:48:21.10
ALSO THINKING, 'WE NEED TO
PRESERVE THE FLOW OF THE OIL.'
00:48:21.10\00:48:25.63
WHICH WAS MONEY. AND
WHOEVER CONQUERS THESE
00:48:25.63\00:48:29.20
COUNTRIES WILL HAVE CONTROL OF
THAT FANTASTIC WEALTH AND POWER.
00:48:29.20\00:48:34.71
RUSSIA'S STRIVING TO HAVE
CONTROL OF THE PIPELINES FOR
00:48:34.71\00:48:37.71
EUROPE AND THE GAS LINES,
BECAUSE YOU'RE CONTROLLING THE
00:48:37.71\00:48:41.82
AIR FOR THE ECONOMY
FOR THESE COUNTRIES.
00:48:41.82\00:48:45.65
VENEZUELA IS IN A TERRIBLE
DECLINE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THEY
00:48:45.65\00:48:48.19
HAD OVERSPENT, BASED ON THEIR
OIL, AND THE OIL PRICES WENT
00:48:48.19\00:48:51.33
DOWN AND THEY'RE HAVING AN
INCREDIBLE RECESSION THERE.
00:48:51.33\00:48:54.93
AND - THEY'RE ON THE VERGE,
I THINK, OF A REVOLUTION RIGHT
00:48:54.93\00:48:58.63
NOW. KEEP READING
- "ALSO THE LIBYANS
00:48:58.63\00:49:03.44
AND ETHIOPIANS SHALL
FOLLOW AT HIS HEELS."
00:49:03.44\00:49:06.47
BOY, THIS IS AN INTERESTING
VERSE - "BUT NEWS FROM THE EAST
00:49:06.47\00:49:09.68
AND THE NORTH SHALL TROUBLE
HIM;" - MY CHARISMATIC FRIENDS
00:49:09.68\00:49:12.68
READ THIS AND THEY THINK
THAT MEANS RUSSIA AND CHINA.
00:49:12.68\00:49:14.88
I DON'T THINK IT
MEANS THAT AT ALL.
00:49:14.88\00:49:16.58
READ IN ISAIAH 41:25, "I HAVE
RAISED UP ONE FROM THE NORTH,
00:49:16.58\00:49:22.49
AND HE SHALL COME; FROM THE
RISING OF THE SUN" - NOW, DOES
00:49:22.49\00:49:24.79
THE SUN RISE IN THE
NORTH? THE SUN RISES WHERE?
00:49:24.79\00:49:28.60
>>EAST. >>IN THE EAST.
00:49:28.60\00:49:30.03
AND SO HERE ISAIAH SAYS,
'I STIRRED ONE FROM THE NORTH.
00:49:30.03\00:49:33.30
HE'S COME FROM THE RISING
SUN. HE WILL CALL UPON MY NAME.
00:49:33.30\00:49:37.31
HE WILL TRAMPLE ON RULERS AS ON
MORTAR,' - THIS IS WHAT - 'AS A
00:49:37.31\00:49:40.48
POTTER TREADS CLAY.' REVELATION
TALKS ABOUT JESUS TREADING DOWN
00:49:40.48\00:49:45.95
THE POTTERS AND BREAKING THE
POTS - THAT JESUS IS THE ONE -
00:49:45.95\00:49:49.52
AND SO, TIDINGS FROM THE NORTH
AND THE EAST ARE TALKING ABOUT
00:49:49.52\00:49:52.22
THE REAL OWNER OF THE THRONE
IN THE NORTH - THE REAL ONE WHO
00:49:52.22\00:49:57.53
COMES FROM THE EAST.
JESUS SAID, 'AS LIGHTNING
00:49:57.53\00:50:00.30
SHINES FROM THE WHAT?
FROM THE EAST TO THE WEST.
00:50:00.30\00:50:03.60
HOW'S THE LORD COMING?
FROM THE EAST TO THE WEST.
00:50:03.60\00:50:07.44
SO WHAT'S MAKING HIM NERVOUS
- WHAT MAKES THE DEVIL NERVOUS?
00:50:07.44\00:50:11.31
HE'S COME DOWN WITH GREAT WRATH
BECAUSE HE KNOWS HIS TIME IS
00:50:11.31\00:50:14.44
SHORT. TIME FOR WHAT? FOR JESUS
COMES. THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THE
00:50:14.44\00:50:18.71
DEVILS SAY, 'JESUS, HAVE YOU
COME TO TORMENT US BEFORE OUR
00:50:18.71\00:50:21.18
TIME? THEY KNOW
THAT THEY'RE GOING TO
00:50:21.18\00:50:23.75
BE CAST INTO THIS BOTTOMLESS PIT
AND, ULTIMATELY, INTO A LAKE OF
00:50:23.75\00:50:27.26
FIRE AND SO TIDINGS FROM THE
EAST AND THE NORTH TROUBLE HIM.
00:50:27.26\00:50:31.79
SO, IT GOES TO SAY, "THEREFORE"
- VERSE 44 - "HE SHALL GO OUT
00:50:31.79\00:50:36.46
WITH GREAT FURY" - THE DEVIL'S
COME DOWN "WITH GREAT WRATH TO
00:50:36.46\00:50:39.00
DESTROY AND ANNIHILATE MANY."
00:50:39.00\00:50:41.90
TIME OF TROUBLE SUCH
AS THERE NEVER HAS BEEN.
00:50:41.90\00:50:45.57
WHO ARE THE ONES HE
WANTS TO ANNIHILATE?
00:50:45.57\00:50:47.01
THOSE WHO SERVE THE
KING COMING FROM THE EAST.
00:50:47.01\00:50:49.98
IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT BATTLE
AGAINST GOD'S PEOPLE - "AND HE
00:50:49.98\00:50:53.38
SHALL PLANT THE TENTS OF HIS
PALACE BETWEEN THE SEAS AND THE
00:50:53.38\00:50:56.65
GLORIOUS HOLY MOUNTAIN; YET
HE SHALL COME TO HIS END, AND NO
00:50:56.65\00:51:00.69
ONE WILL HELP HIM." IT
TALKS ABOUT HOW THE KINGS
00:51:00.69\00:51:02.72
TURN ON BABYLON IN THE
END AND NONE WILL HELP HIM.
00:51:02.72\00:51:06.19
WHAT DOES IT MEAN, HE'LL PLANT
HIS PALACE BETWEEN THE SEAS?
00:51:06.19\00:51:09.33
YOU'VE READ WHERE JESUS SAID,
'WHEN YOU, THEREFORE, SEE THE
00:51:09.33\00:51:11.53
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION
STAND IN THE HOLY PLACE - THAT'S
00:51:11.53\00:51:15.80
MATTHEW 24:15 - "THEN LET THOSE
WHO ARE IN JUDEA FLEE TO THE
00:51:15.80\00:51:19.67
MOUNTAINS."
THERE'LL BE A TIME OF TROUBLE
00:51:19.67\00:51:21.04
SUCH AS THERE NEVER HAS BEEN.
JESUS IS QUOTING DANIEL 12 - A
00:51:21.04\00:51:25.01
TIME OF TROUBLE SUCH
AS THERE NEVER HAS BEEN.
00:51:25.01\00:51:27.52
READ IN 2 THESSALONIANS 2,
VERSE 3 - PAUL SAYS, "LET NO ONE
00:51:27.52\00:51:32.45
DECEIVE YOU BY ANY
MEANS; FOR THAT DAY" - THE
00:51:32.45\00:51:34.66
DAY OF THE LORD - "...WILL
NOT COME UNLESS THE FALLING AWAY
00:51:34.66\00:51:38.03
COMES FIRST, AND THE MAN
OF SIN IS REVEALED, THE SON OF
00:51:38.03\00:51:40.56
PERDITION, WHO OPPOSES AND
EXALTS HIMSELF ABOVE ALL THAT IS
00:51:40.56\00:51:44.10
CALLED GOD OR THAT IS WORSHIPED,
SO THAT HE SITS AS GOD IN THE
00:51:44.10\00:51:49.14
TEMPLE OF GOD, SHOWING
HIMSELF THAT HE IS GOD."
00:51:49.14\00:51:51.87
SO, WHEN IT TALKS ABOUT THIS
KING OF THE NORTH - THIS BEAST
00:51:51.87\00:51:54.51
POWER SETTING HIS TABERNACLE IN
THE HOLY MOUNTAIN, IT'S TALKING
00:51:54.51\00:51:59.65
ABOUT THAT FINAL BEAST PAPAL
POWER - THAT CONFEDERACY THAT
00:51:59.65\00:52:05.22
SAYS, 'I AM GOD. WORSHIP ME.'
00:52:05.22\00:52:08.12
AND IF YOU DON'T WORSHIP THE
BEAST AND HIS IMAGE, YOU CAN'T
00:52:08.12\00:52:10.26
BUY AND SELL, ULTIMATELY THERE'S
A DEATH DECREE - SEVEN PLAGUES
00:52:10.26\00:52:14.13
FALL - A GREAT TIME OF TROUBLE -
IT'S GOING TO BE A GREAT TIME OF
00:52:14.13\00:52:17.33
WRATH. DURING THE
SMALL TIME OF TROUBLE
00:52:17.33\00:52:19.77
IT'S GOING TO BE
PRETTY SEVERE TOO.
00:52:19.77\00:52:22.07
BUT YOU NOTICE, THE
SCRIPTURES ARE ALL LINING UP.
00:52:22.07\00:52:24.81
IT'S TALKING ABOUT WHEN YOU SEE
THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION
00:52:24.81\00:52:27.01
STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACE,
CHRIST IS TALKING ABOUT THAT
00:52:27.01\00:52:30.78
SAME THING WE JUST READ THERE
FROM DANIEL CHAPTER 11, WHERE IT
00:52:30.78\00:52:35.15
SAYS THAT "HE'LL PLANT THE TENT
OF HIS PALACES BETWEEN THE SEAS
00:52:35.15\00:52:39.22
AND THE GLORIOUS HOLY MOUNTAIN;"
- YOU KNOW, MY GUESS IS THAT
00:52:39.22\00:52:44.29
WHEN THIS COALITION OF POWERS
FROM THE NORTH - CHRISTIAN
00:52:44.29\00:52:47.83
COALITION - DIFFERENT FROM THE
OTHER CHRISTIAN COALITION - THAT
00:52:47.83\00:52:54.00
A CONFEDERACY - THEY'RE GOING TO
SAY, 'ISRAEL IS OUR FRIEND.' AND
00:52:54.00\00:53:00.51
BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S
THIS GREAT ISLAMIC STRUGGLE
00:53:00.51\00:53:04.68
AGAINST THE WEST, THERE WILL
PROBABLY BE AN ATTACK ON ISRAEL
00:53:04.68\00:53:08.68
AT THE SAME TIME AND THEY WILL
USE THAT AS AN EXCUSE TO PROTECT
00:53:08.68\00:53:12.45
OUR JEWISH FRIENDS. THEY
WILL ENTER THE PROMISED LAND
00:53:12.45\00:53:14.96
LITERALLY. I REALLY THINK
THAT MAY LITERALLY HAPPEN.
00:53:14.96\00:53:18.73
I TELL YOU, THERE'S NOTHING MORE
THAT A LOT OF ARAB COUNTRIES -
00:53:18.73\00:53:23.20
NOT ALL, BUT MANY OF THESE ARAB
PEOPLE IN COUNTRIES WOULD LOVE
00:53:23.20\00:53:26.43
TO SEE ISRAEL DISPLACED.
THEY WON'T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE
00:53:26.43\00:53:29.94
THEM AS A NATION. THAT
WOULD BE A GOOD EXCUSE FOR
00:53:29.94\00:53:33.88
THIS MILITARY TO COME IN
AND CREATE A BEACHHEAD THERE.
00:53:33.88\00:53:38.18
BUT MORE THAN ANYTHING IT'S
TALKING ABOUT SPIRITUALLY - THAT
00:53:38.18\00:53:41.98
THE BEAST POWER IS GOING TO PUT
THEM SELF IN THE PLACE OF GOD,
00:53:41.98\00:53:45.42
ASKING FOR THE PREROGATIVES THAT
BELONG TO GOD, AND WE'RE GOING
00:53:45.42\00:53:48.82
TO HAVE TO
DECIDE WHO WE WORSHIP.
00:53:48.82\00:53:50.86
ARE WE GOING TO
WORSHIP THEIR WAY, THEIR DAY?
00:53:50.86\00:53:53.33
OR ARE WE GOING TO WORSHIP
THE WAY GOD SAYS AND THE TIME HE
00:53:53.33\00:53:57.63
SAYS? YOU ALL KNOW WHAT I'M
TALKING ABOUT? THE BOTTOM LINE
00:53:57.63\00:54:01.57
IS GOING TO BE WORSHIP. THE
BIBLE BEGINS WITH TWO BROTHERS
00:54:01.57\00:54:09.24
BEING TOLD TO WORSHIP GOD. ONE
WORSHIPS HIS WAY - CAIN DOES IT
00:54:09.24\00:54:13.42
HIS OWN WAY - MAN-MADE WORSHIP -
AND HE GETS UPSET AT HIS BROTHER
00:54:13.42\00:54:17.85
WHO WORSHIPS THE WAY GOD
SAYS AND HE KILLS HIS BROTHER.
00:54:17.85\00:54:21.26
THE BIBLE ENDS THAT WAY. IT'S
THE STORY OF JACOB AND ESAU -
00:54:21.26\00:54:24.56
ONE FLESH, ONE SPIRIT - IT'S THE
STORY OF ISAAC AND ISHMAEL - AND
00:54:24.56\00:54:28.40
THESE ARE THE TWO POWERS. I
THINK, IN THE LAST DAYS, THIS
00:54:28.40\00:54:31.23
BATTLE BETWEEN TRUE AND FALSE IS
GOING TO BE PLAYED OUT BETWEEN
00:54:31.23\00:54:35.34
THESE TWO COUNTERFEITS.
NOW, I'M TALKING ABOUT
00:54:35.34\00:54:39.21
COUNTERFEIT CHRISTIANITY AND I'M
ALSO TALKING ABOUT ISLAM, WHICH
00:54:39.21\00:54:43.31
IS A COUNTERFEIT RELIGION, BUT
YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A WAVE OF
00:54:43.31\00:54:47.98
MUSLIMS COMING TO JESUS, I
BELIEVE. I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO
00:54:47.98\00:54:51.39
SEE A WAVE OF JEWS COMING TO
ACCEPT CHRIST AS THE MESSIAH.
00:54:51.39\00:54:56.49
AND YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A WAVE
OF PEOPLE WHO ARE TRAPPED IN
00:54:56.49\00:54:58.83
BABYLON - FALLEN CHRISTIANITY
- COMING BACK TO THE BIBLE.
00:54:58.83\00:55:02.16
JESUS SAID, 'MANY SHEEP I HAVE
THAT ARE NOT OF THIS FOLD, BUT
00:55:02.16\00:55:06.30
THEY WILL HEAR MY VOICE AND
THEY'RE GOING TO COME OUT OF
00:55:06.30\00:55:08.77
BABYLON AND THERE'S GOING TO
BE ONE FOLD AND ONE SHEPHERD.
00:55:08.77\00:55:11.64
AND SO, YEAH, THERE IS
A TIME OF TROUBLE COMING.
00:55:11.64\00:55:14.24
I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT THAT.
I THINK THERE IS ALSO - A TIME
00:55:14.24\00:55:16.31
OF GREAT EVANGELISM IS GOING TO
COME BECAUSE, DURING THIS TIME
00:55:16.31\00:55:19.71
OF PERSECUTION, JESUS SAID, 'YOU
WILL BE BROUGHT BEFORE THE KINGS
00:55:19.71\00:55:22.55
AND THE LEADERS OF THE WORLD TO
BEAR TESTIMONY FOR ME.' BECAUSE
00:55:22.55\00:55:25.89
PEOPLE ARE GOING TO
BE TRIED FOR THEIR FAITH.
00:55:25.89\00:55:28.36
AND SO, THAT'S A QUICK OVERVIEW
OF WHAT I THINK IS COMING.
00:55:28.36\00:55:33.50
CHEER UP, IT'S GOING TO
GET WORSE - BUT THEN IT'LL GET
00:55:33.50\00:55:35.03
BETTER.
(LAUGHTER) IT'S GOING TO GET
00:55:35.03\00:55:36.97
REALLY GOOD BECAUSE IT SAYS,
'MICHAEL WILL STAND UP.' YOU
00:55:36.97\00:55:40.04
KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS WHEN
IT SAYS MICHAEL STANDS UP?
00:55:40.04\00:55:42.30
WHEN SOMEBODY STARTS PICKING ON
MY KIDS, I'M GOING TO STAND UP.
00:55:42.30\00:55:50.15
AND, IN THE CONTEXT OF THE KING
OF THE NORTH PERSECUTING GOD'S
00:55:50.15\00:55:53.98
PEOPLE - THE LORD SAYS, 'MICHAEL
WILL STAND UP.' NOT ONLY DOES IT
00:55:53.98\00:55:57.45
MEAN HE CEASES HIS INTERCESSION,
THE JUDGMENT IS OVER, NOW HE IS
00:55:57.45\00:56:01.42
GOING TO COME AND ACT AND
HE IS COMING FOR HIS PEOPLE.
00:56:01.42\00:56:05.73
AND IT SAYS, 'THEY WILL BE
DELIVERED, EVERYONE THAT IS
00:56:05.73\00:56:07.96
FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK.' SO
THAT'S THE BIG QUESTION - ALL OF
00:56:07.96\00:56:11.83
THIS IS VERY INTERESTING,
BUT ARE YOU IN THE BOOK?
00:56:11.83\00:56:14.70
HAVE YOU ACCEPTED JESUS?
I DON'T MEAN IN A POLITICAL,
00:56:14.70\00:56:19.74
ORGANIZATIONAL WAY, BECAUSE
THERE'S GOING TO BE PLENTY OF
00:56:19.74\00:56:23.35
POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT
TAKE THE NAME OF CHRIST - THEY
00:56:23.35\00:56:26.78
EAT THEIR OWN BREAD AND WEAR
THEIR OWN APPAREL. THEY USE HIS
00:56:26.78\00:56:28.88
NAME TO TAKE AWAY THEIR
REPROACH, BUT THEY'RE NOT REAL.
00:56:28.88\00:56:32.19
ARE YOU GOING TO BE SOMEONE WHO
HAS A PERSONAL, DAILY, SAVING
00:56:32.19\00:56:36.26
RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS, WHERE
HE IS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE AND
00:56:36.26\00:56:39.33
YOU DO HIS WILL BECAUSE YOU LOVE
HIM AND YOU WANT TO PLEASE HIM?
00:56:39.33\00:56:42.50
THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS TO BE SAVED
- TO ACCEPT THAT HE DIED ON THE
00:56:42.50\00:56:45.90
CROSS TO SAVE YOU FROM YOUR SIN.
ALL OF THESE PROPHECIES ARE JUST
00:56:45.90\00:56:50.31
HELPING US KNOW THE
TIME IN WHICH WE'RE LIVING.
00:56:50.31\00:56:52.27
AND GOD WANTS US TO KNOW DON'T
WAIT, BECAUSE THE TIME COMES
00:56:52.27\00:56:56.75
WHEN PROBATION
CLOSES AND IT'S TOO LATE.
00:56:56.75\00:56:59.25
SO NOW IS THE TIME TO ACCEPT
THAT CALL AND TO COME TO CHRIST.
00:56:59.25\00:57:03.02
I WANT TO BE
READY, AMEN? >>AMEN.
00:57:03.02\00:57:04.45
>>I SEE THE FINAL EVENTS ARE
HAPPENING ALL AROUND US, AND -
00:57:04.45\00:57:07.92
BUT WE DON'T NEED TO BE AFRAID.
JESUS PROMISES HE WILL PROTECT
00:57:07.92\00:57:11.06
HIS OWN. >>CAN'T
