00:45 Hi and you're now with The Forerunner Chronicles.
00:48 All right everybody, I'd like to welcome you to 00:50 a special series of The Forerunner Chronicles 00:54 entitled, "A Formation of a New World Order" 00:56 and I assure you, you don't want to miss 00:59 one part of this series 01:00 because currently, this is an inquiry, 01:03 this is a question that is at the forefront of the minds of 01:06 many people within our Society 01:08 with an impending economic collapse 01:10 in the EU and in the United States of America as well 01:14 and with social unrest manifesting itself 01:17 in many different ways like the "Occupy Movement" 01:20 which is currently sweeping through our globe 01:22 people really want to know whether or not a New World Order 01:26 could come into existence. 01:28 People really want to know whether or not globalization 01:31 could be the reality which we live in 01:35 in the very near future. 01:37 And as always... the Bible has all of the answers. 01:41 Are you ready? Well let's begin. 01:43 In the book of 1 Thessalonians, chapter 5 beginning at verse 1, 01:48 the Bible tells us, 01:49 "But of the times and the seasons, brethren, 01:51 ye have no need that I write unto you. 01:53 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord 01:57 so cometh as a thief in the night. 01:59 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; 02:02 then sudden destruction cometh upon them, 02:05 as travail upon a woman with child; 02:07 and they shall not escape. " 02:10 According to the Apostle Paul 02:13 under the inspiration of the Spirit of God, 02:15 in reference to the specific time and season 02:17 dealing with the second coming of Jesus Christ, 02:20 this information 02:21 is not something that we need to concern ourselves with 02:24 because the Bible does not give us this information. 02:28 However, there has been enough revealed to us 02:30 in the Holy Scriptures to give us the clear understanding 02:34 that we know that the Day of the Lord will come 02:37 as a thief in the night. 02:40 However, when we should be 02:43 looking for the second coming of Jesus Christ, 02:45 during the time in which we should be preparing our hearts 02:49 to meet the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, 02:52 during the time in which we should be turning our minds 02:54 to the Lamb of God 02:56 which taketh away the sin of the world, 02:58 so that by faith in His grace, in His power, 03:00 we might be liberated from our lying, 03:02 our backbiting, our stealing, our adultery, 03:04 our smoking, our alcoholism, all of these shackles 03:08 that have bound us to the devil, 03:09 during this time, in which we should be looking 03:12 to have this experience because Jesus is coming, 03:15 there will be people in this world that will be saying, 03:18 "No! peace and safety... peace and safety... " 03:24 That word "peace" in the original Greek 03:27 from whence it was translated gives the connotation 03:30 that these individuals are saying, 03:31 "Join together as one, for prosperity. " 03:35 And that word "Safety" in the original Greek 03:38 from which it was translated means "Security" 03:41 so, in other words, these individuals are saying, 03:44 "Join together as one to ensure our prosperity 03:47 and our security. " 03:48 Let me make it plain to you, during the time, 03:51 just prior to the second coming of Jesus Christ, 03:54 in the last days of this world's existence, 03:58 which happens to be NOW, people in our world 04:02 will be saying, "We need interfaith movements, 04:05 we need an ecumenical movement 04:07 to bring all faiths together as one, 04:10 we need a one-world economic system, 04:12 we need a one-world Government structure 04:15 to ensure the prosperity and the security of the Nations. 04:19 Have you ever heard anything like that? 04:22 Funny... I have... and Ladies and Gentlemen, 04:25 when they're saying, "Peace and safety... " 04:28 the Bible says that sudden destruction will come upon them 04:34 as travail upon a woman with child 04:37 and they shall not escape. 04:40 Now, I have two questions that I would like to ask you 04:43 and I hope you find them just as interesting as I do. 04:46 Question number one, 04:47 Is it possible for a woman to be pregnant 04:51 and not know that she's pregnant? 04:52 The answer to that question is, "Yes. " 04:55 Now, Question number two, 04:56 which is quite more interesting than the first question. 04:59 Is it possible for a woman to go into child labor 05:03 and not know that what she's experiencing 05:07 at that time is actually child labor? 05:09 Now, there are several mothers out there 05:12 that might have several children, 05:13 and they're shaking their head and saying, 05:15 "No, that is impossible. " 05:16 But the reality of the situation is, "Yes, it is possible" 05:21 and let me share with you how it could be possible 05:23 by sharing with you this scenario. 05:26 Let's say for instance there was a woman 05:29 that was pregnant and she went to her doctor 05:32 and she said to her doctor, 05:33 "Doctor, I believe I'm getting ready to go into child birth, 05:36 I believe I'm ready to have 05:37 my baby" and the doctor looks her over 05:39 and says, "Well, what makes you think that?" 05:40 And she says, 05:42 "Well, I felt the baby kicking in my stomach this morning. " 05:45 What do you think the doctor would say to her? 05:47 I hope the doctor would say to her, 05:49 "Don't worry, you're not getting ready to go into childbirth, 05:52 the baby is just letting you know 05:54 that it's alive and it's healthy, 05:55 however, when you feel those labor contractions 05:59 about five minutes apart, then rush to the emergency room 06:03 because you can know at that time, 06:05 you are getting ready to deliver your child. " 06:08 You see, the reason why that woman did not know 06:12 whether or not she was going into child labor or not, 06:15 was because she was not familiar with the signs 06:18 or the indicators that foreshadowed childbirth 06:21 or that were the harbingers of child delivery. 06:24 And this is the same situation with these people 06:28 that will be living here in these last days 06:31 saying, "Peace and safety. " 06:33 The only reason they'll be saying, "Peace and safety" 06:37 the only reason they'll be saying, 06:38 "We need to all join together as one 06:41 for our prosperity and our security" 06:43 is because, these individuals are not familiar 06:47 with the signs that indicate a time of deliverance 06:51 or these individuals are willfully ignorant 06:55 or they are denying that the signs that indicate 06:59 a time of deliverance are now unfolding. 07:02 And what are these signs that are the indicators 07:06 of this time of deliverance? 07:07 Well, Jesus himself actually answered this question 07:11 in the book of Matthew chapter 24. 07:14 In Matthew the 24th chapter, when Jesus was answering 07:18 the inquiries of his disciples, as to what the signs would be, 07:22 that foreshadowed the destruction of Jerusalem, 07:25 the end of this world and His second coming, 07:27 in verse 4, Jesus answered and said unto them, 07:30 "Take heed that no man deceive you. 07:33 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; 07:36 and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars 07:40 and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: 07:43 for all these things must come to pass, 07:45 but the end is not yet. 07:46 For nation shall rise against nation, 07:49 and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, 07:52 and pestilence, and earthquakes, in divers places. 07:56 And all these are the beginnings of sorrows. " 08:00 That word "sorrows" in the original Greek, 08:03 from whence it was translated means that all of these signs 08:07 are the beginnings of the labor pains 08:10 or the beginnings of the labor contractions. 08:13 Ladies and Gentlemen, 08:15 when we see nation rise up against nation, 08:19 or races rising up to annihilate other races, 08:22 we're talking about genocide here, 08:24 are you seeing that happen in our world today? 08:26 And when we see political powers rising up to make war 08:29 with other political powers, as well as famines, 08:32 and pestilence, and earthquakes transpiring 08:35 all throughout our globe, 08:37 these all are the signs of a time of deliverance. 08:41 Have you see these signs taking place as of today? 08:45 Well, if you haven't seen them as of yet, take a look at this. 08:49 This is recent footage filmed in Africa 08:52 in which these villagers thought they saw 08:55 an appearance of the virgin Mary, 08:57 2 Corinthians 11 verse 14 tells us, 08:59 "And no marvel, for Satan himself is transformed 09:02 into an angel of light. " 09:04 This is not special effects. 09:05 This is a fallen angel, a demonic spirit. 09:09 Tokyo has announced plans to dump nearly 12,000 tons of 09:14 radioactive water from the Fukushima Power Plant. 09:16 Is this really harmless as the Government is making out? 09:20 Absolutely not and in any other normal circumstances 09:23 that leads to such volumes of water 09:26 will be described as catastrophic. 09:28 There's no concept of how to stall the radioactive 09:32 fuel... plutonium if it is ingested 09:36 by the human body... it almost certainly leads to 09:40 the development of cancer. 09:42 Plutonium is a very, very dangerous and harmful substance 09:46 which will radiate for many, many, many thousands of years. 09:49 This is done to restore the cooling system at the Facility 09:53 in what is now the worst atomic crisis since Chernobyl. 09:57 Plutonium... if it is ingested by the human body 10:01 it almost certainly leads to the development of cancer. 10:05 Reporter speaking... 10:11 still speaking... 10:20 reporter speaking... 10:22 still speaking... 10:24 speaking... 10:28 still speaking... 10:31 speaking 10:41 reporting... 10:47 speaking 13:15 Wow! so do you think it may be possible 13:18 that men have actually developed the technology 13:22 that can give them the ability to 13:24 harness the elements of nature 13:26 and then use that energy for the purpose of weaponry? 13:30 Well, that's a whole other issue 13:32 for a whole other episode... 13:34 but currently one thing is certain 13:37 false Christ's are arising, 13:39 nations are rising up against other nations, 13:42 the political powers of our world 13:45 are seeking to make war with one another, 13:48 famines, pestilence, earthquakes taking place 13:50 in all different parts of our globe, 13:52 all of these events are right now unfolding 13:56 right before our very eyes, and the Bible tells us, 14:00 that all these are the beginnings of sorrows, 14:03 they are the beginnings of the labor pains, 14:06 the labor contractions, these events are the harbingers 14:11 of a time of deliverance, 14:13 and I can imagine, 14:15 that many of you that are watching this program 14:17 right now are saying, "Praise the Lord 14:19 because that means Jesus Christ is coming right back to save us, 14:23 and we're going to get out of this God-forsaken place" 14:25 and I say, "Praise the Lord... " with you 14:27 because I await 14:28 the near-second-coming of Jesus Christ as well, 14:31 however, the time of deliverance 14:34 that the Bible is speaking of right here, 14:37 is not the immediate return of Jesus Christ. 14:40 You don't believe me? 14:42 Well, the Bible tells us in the very next verse 14:44 Matthew chapter 24 and verse 9, 14:47 "And then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, 14:52 and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations 14:57 for my name's sake. " 14:59 Ladies and Gentlemen, these events that we see 15:03 taking place right now within our world, 15:06 they are the events that are foreshadowing 15:08 a time of trouble such as never was 15:11 that God's people will have to pass through. 15:14 They are the harbingers of a time of persecution 15:18 for those who hold fast to the name of the Lord. 15:22 And what does it mean that God's people 15:25 would be hated of all nations for His name's sake? 15:29 Does it mean that people will be hated 15:31 because they are called Christians? 15:33 I beg to differ... and I beg to differ 15:35 because of the information found within the Bible 15:38 in conjunction with the name of the Lord. 15:41 You see, we are told in the book of Exodus, 15:43 chapter 34 beginning at verse 5 something very important 15:48 about the name of the Lord. 15:49 We are told there, 15:51 "And the Lord descended in a cloud, 15:53 and stood with him there, 15:54 and proclaimed the name of the Lord. 15:57 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, 16:01 The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, 16:04 longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 16:08 keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity 16:11 and transgression and sin, 16:13 and that will by no means clear the guilty; 16:15 visiting the iniquity of the fathers 16:18 upon the children, 16:19 and upon the children's children, 16:21 unto the third and fourth generation. " 16:24 When God proclaimed His name there, 16:27 in Exodus chapter 34, 16:28 verses 5, 6 and 7, 16:30 He didn't show a bright shining light. 16:33 He didn't say, "My name is the I am. " 16:35 He didn't say, "My name is Joshua or Jehovah" 16:38 no, He said His name is, "merciful, gracious, 16:42 longsuffering, abundant in goodness and truth" 16:45 God began to delineate the very aspects 16:48 that make up His divine character. 16:51 This is the reason why God's people will be hated 16:56 of all nations in these last days. 16:58 We will be hated because we reveal the character 17:02 of the Almighty. 17:04 But did you notice something important 17:05 about the name of the Lord found there 17:08 in the book of Exodus chapter 34 verses 5 through 7? 17:12 Did you notice that God said, "... He will visit the iniquity 17:16 of the fathers upon the children and upon the children's children 17:19 to the third and fourth generation?" 17:21 Did you realize that it is actually one of the 17:24 principles that is found within the 2nd Commandment 17:27 of the book of Exodus chapter 20? 17:29 That's very important for us to acknowledge, 17:31 because the Bible tells us something very important about 17:35 the commandments in the book of James chapter 2 and verse 10. 17:38 We are told there, 17:40 "For whosoever keeps the whole law, 17:41 yet offends in one point, he is guilty of all. " 17:44 The reason why, if you keep all the law 17:47 yet you break one law, 17:49 that means you've broken all the Commandments, 17:51 is because the Commandments are one interlocking chain. 17:54 Nothing can be added and nothing can be subtracted. 17:58 If you mention one Commandment, 18:00 you've mentioned all of the Commandments, 18:01 if you break one Commandment, 18:02 you've broken all of the Commandments. 18:04 Therefore, because God mentioned that one of the attributes 18:08 of His character can be found within the Commandments, 18:11 this lets us know that the 18:13 Commandments are actually a transcript 18:15 of the character of God. 18:17 You see, God's people will be hated in these last days 18:23 for his name's sake, because God's people 18:26 reveal His character 18:27 because by faith in the power of God, 18:30 with the power of the Spirit of God 18:32 operating within their lives, they are walking in obedience 18:36 to all of God's ten Commandments. 18:39 The world will hate God's people 18:41 because they are true Commandment-keepers. 18:44 They don't keep one Commandment, 18:45 the don't keep two Commandments, not even three or five... 18:47 they keep all ten of God's Commandments. 18:50 And that's why the world will hate them. 18:54 That's why the world will hate us... I pray... 18:56 because we don't budge, 18:58 we don't give into what man has to say. 19:01 We only pay true homage, 19:03 we only fear and reverence the God of the universe 19:08 because He is the only one 19:10 who should be the Government of our consciousness. 19:13 Ladies and Gentlemen, my friends, 19:17 this war... it is right now upon us... 19:20 and what amazes me is that as this stupendous crisis 19:26 is rapidly stealing upon the human family, 19:29 there are still those within our global community 19:33 that are mocking 19:34 at the fact that these events 19:36 that we see taking place within our world, 19:39 are in all actuality the signs that Jesus spoke of in the Bible 19:44 they're saying, "Since I've been alive, 19:47 there have always been wars, there have always been famines, 19:49 there has always been pestilence, earthquakes, 19:51 all of these things... they're not new... 19:53 they've always taken place. 19:55 But do you know something? 19:57 The Bible has already forewarned us 20:00 that these types of 20:01 willfully ignorant individuals 20:03 would be in existence here in these last days. 20:06 We are told this in the book 20:08 of 2nd Peter chapter 3 beginning at verse 3, 20:11 the Bible tells us there 20:13 "Knowing this first, 20:15 that there shall come in the last days scoffers, 20:19 walking after their own lusts, and saying, 20:22 wherein is the sign of the promise of his coming? 20:26 for since the fathers fell asleep, 20:28 all things continue 20:30 as they were since the beginning of creation. " 20:33 Do you get what they're saying? 20:34 These individuals are saying, 20:36 Since my grandfather fell asleep, 20:38 and he told me about Jesus Christ's coming. 20:40 Since my father fell asleep 20:42 and he told me about Jesus Christ's coming 20:44 Jesus hasn't come yet, 20:46 people have been talking about the coming of Jesus Christ 20:48 for hundreds of years, and I haven't seen Jesus yet. 20:51 I haven't seen any of these troubles, 20:54 that you're talking about happening on this world yet. 20:56 Well, you're not going to have to wait much longer my friend, 21:00 because these troubles are coming... and shortly thereafter 21:03 Jesus will come to redeem the faithful 21:06 and you want to know something, Jesus Himself, 21:09 has actually given us an important piece of information 21:13 that can help us qualify as to when 21:17 we can know of a certainty these signs are actually 21:20 the fulfillment of the prophetic events 21:22 that are the precursor of a time of trouble 21:25 that is the precursor for the second coming of Jesus Christ. 21:28 That important information 21:30 is found within the book of Matthew 21:32 chapter 24 and verse 28, there Jesus told us 21:37 "For wheresoever the carcass is, 21:39 there will the eagles be gathered together. " 21:43 That word "eagles" in the original Greek 21:46 from whence it was translated, means "vultures" 21:49 that makes a lot of sense doesn't it? 21:51 So in other words, Jesus was saying, 21:52 "Wheresoever the carcass is, 21:55 there will the vultures be gathered together. " 21:58 Now, if you don't know much about vultures, 22:01 here's a little insight. 22:02 If you see one vulture flying about in the air, 22:05 in my opinion, all you're seeing is a big unattractive bird. 22:09 Like I said, that's my opinion. 22:11 However, when you see two and three, four and five, 22:15 of these huge carnivorous birds, flying around in the air 22:19 doing a circular pattern, you can know of a certainty 22:23 that there is a dead body of something or someone 22:27 that is nearby, that these birds are getting 22:30 ready to swoop down on and make it their meal. 22:32 And Jesus Himself has given us this Object Lesson from nature 22:37 that we might superimpose it upon our understanding 22:41 of the events of Matthew chapter 24 22:45 as to our understanding as to when these events 22:49 are actually being fulfilled. 22:51 In other words, 22:53 not when we see one famine happening 22:56 as an isolated event, 22:57 or one war happening as an isolated event, 23:00 but when we see the famines and the pestilence 23:03 and the earthquakes in diverse places, 23:05 and the wars and the genocide all happening simultaneously, 23:09 like a swarm of vultures circling around in the air, 23:12 we can know that the time in which God's people 23:16 will suffer persecution 23:18 because we hold fast to the Commandments of God, 23:20 is right upon us, 23:22 and that's what's going on right now in our world today. 23:27 The Bible tells us 23:29 in the book of Matthew chapter 24 and verse 20, 23:34 some of the most important information 23:36 that we need to understand right now. 23:38 Jesus' warning to us was this, "But pray that your flight 23:44 be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:" 23:48 Now as a person that's from New York, 23:51 this information makes a lot of sense to me, 23:53 because Number one, 23:55 I know what cold winters feel like, 23:57 and I don't want to flee any place during the winter. 23:59 And Number two, as a Sabbath-keeper, 24:02 I know according to the book of Exodus, 24:05 chapter 20 and verse 8, that God tells us, 24:07 "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. 24:09 Six days shalt thou labour and do all thy work: 24:11 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: 24:14 and in it thou shalt not do any work... " 24:16 The winter is not a convenient time to be fleeing any place, 24:19 and the Sabbath day is not a time 24:21 in which we should be fleeing any place. 24:23 It is a time that God has appointed for us to rest 24:26 and spend time in loving communion with Him. 24:29 However, when we look at this warning from Jesus Christ, 24:32 and look closer at these two appointed times, 24:35 these two appointed seasons... 24:37 we learn that there is something more interesting 24:40 and much more imperative of a nature 24:43 that Christ wants us 24:44 to understand at this time. 24:45 There was one common thread that binds the times of winter 24:50 and the Sabbath day together, and that is... preparation... 24:54 You see, you must make the necessary preparations 24:57 for the winter, 24:58 you make sure you have your warm winter clothes, 25:00 you make sure that there is oil in the tank 25:02 so that your family can be warm during the cold months, 25:05 and if you live in certain regions, 25:07 you make sure you have enough food to supply your needs 25:10 just in case the snow keeps you inside. 25:14 And as Sabbath keepers we know that you are 25:17 supposed to make preparations 25:19 for the Sabbath day, because once again, 25:21 "Six days shalt thou labor and do all they work: 25:24 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: 25:26 and in it thou shalt not do any work... " 25:28 Why? Because you were supposed to 25:30 make the necessary preparations on the previous six days. 25:34 Jesus' warning to us is this, 25:36 "Pray that you do not try to make the necessary preparations 25:42 before it is too late to prepare. " 25:45 Why? Verse 21 of Matthew chapter 24 25:48 tells us... we are told there, 25:50 "For then shall be great tribulation, 25:52 such as was not since the beginning of the world 25:55 to this time, no, nor ever shall be. " 25:58 Ladies and Gentlemen, 26:00 when this time of tribulation comes, 26:02 when this crisis comes, 26:03 there will be no more time to prepare, 26:06 the time to prepare is now, because in a crisis situation, 26:11 "character is not formed" 26:13 the character that you have formed 26:15 is revealed in the crisis. 26:17 What will your character be? 26:19 Are you preparing by having a loving relationship 26:23 with Jesus Christ every day? 26:25 By searching the Scriptures 26:27 and spending time with Him in prayer. 26:29 Are you yielding your heart 26:30 to the leading of the Holy Spirit, 26:33 as He guides you into all truth, 26:35 as He leads you to put away your sins, 26:37 and take upon yourself the love, the joy, the peace, 26:39 the longsuffering, the gentleness, the goodness, 26:42 the faith, the meekness and temperance, 26:44 which are all the fruit of the Spirit 26:46 according to Galatians 5 and verse 22. 26:48 Is this your daily experience? 26:50 If it is not, today is the time to begin your preparation. 26:54 I thank God that we're told 26:56 in the book of 1 John chapter 1 and verse 9, 26:58 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just 27:01 to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us 27:04 from all unrighteousness. " 27:06 I need this cleansing, you need this cleansing, 27:09 the world needs to experience this cleansing, 27:13 before the crisis touches down. 27:16 And as the Bible tells us, in 1 Peter chapter 4 and verse 7 27:22 "But the end of all things is at hand: 27:25 be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. " 27:29 I pray that you take this information to heart 27:33 because the crisis is right before us. 27:37 As always... this is The Forerunner... 27:40 and whether you like it or not, 27:43 the truth is the truth. |
