It is fear that
keeps us separated
00:00:53.18\00:00:55.32
because fear is "False
Evidence Appearing Real"
00:00:55.35\00:00:58.22
it's an acronym, F E A R...
00:00:58.25\00:01:00.42
False Evidence Appearing Real,
00:01:00.46\00:01:02.56
because most of your
fear is based on propaganda.
00:01:02.59\00:01:05.76
Now why is it historic?
00:01:15.37\00:01:17.31
Because in 1999,
00:01:17.34\00:01:20.01
the Roman Catholic Church and
the Protestant Lutheran Church,
00:01:20.04\00:01:24.75
signed an agreement that brought
an end to the "protest. "
00:01:24.78\00:01:29.45
Brothers and Sisters,
Luther's protest is over.
00:01:47.14\00:01:50.27
Is yours?
00:01:50.31\00:01:52.24
Before the word knew
who Martin Luther was,
00:01:52.27\00:01:57.18
God raised up a
champion for truth,
00:01:57.25\00:01:59.88
his name was John Wycliffe,
he would later come to be known
00:01:59.91\00:02:04.22
as the "Morning Star of
the Protestant Reformation"
00:02:04.29\00:02:06.92
for it was by his hand
00:02:06.96\00:02:08.76
that Jehovah
would ignite the fire
00:02:08.79\00:02:10.96
that would set
ablaze the inferno
00:02:10.99\00:02:13.13
that would dispel the world's
mysticism of the Dark Ages.
00:02:13.16\00:02:16.53
The chief undertaking
of John Wycliffe's life
00:02:16.56\00:02:19.37
was the
translation of the Holy Bible
00:02:19.40\00:02:21.70
into the English
language in the year 1380 AD.
00:02:21.74\00:02:25.27
"To make such a
translation at that time... "
00:02:25.34\00:02:28.81
said the Theologian and
Church Historian, Neander,
00:02:28.84\00:02:32.71
"required a bold spirit
which no danger could uphold. "
00:02:32.75\00:02:36.55
Neander's words
could be no more true
00:02:36.58\00:02:39.19
for in translating the Bible,
00:02:39.22\00:02:41.29
to the tongue of
the common people,
00:02:41.32\00:02:43.26
Wycliffe is protesting
against the most powerful engine
00:02:43.29\00:02:47.13
of religious as well
as political authority,
00:02:47.16\00:02:50.03
the Roman Catholic Church.
00:02:50.07\00:02:51.93
In opposition to
Wycliffe's object
00:02:51.97\00:02:54.47
of making the Bible
available to the people,
00:02:54.50\00:02:57.24
the cry was made by the Church,
00:02:57.31\00:02:59.47
that he was
introducing among the multitudes
00:02:59.51\00:03:02.54
a book reserved exclusively
for the use of priests
00:03:02.58\00:03:06.41
and thus, was the gospel...
by him... laid more open...
00:03:06.45\00:03:10.55
to the Laity and to
women who could read
00:03:10.59\00:03:13.72
that had had formerly been to
the most learned of the clergy
00:03:13.76\00:03:17.59
by so making available...
the Bible to the common man,
00:03:17.63\00:03:21.20
the priests proclaimed that
00:03:21.23\00:03:23.23
Wycliffe was casting
the gospel pearl to swines
00:03:23.26\00:03:27.20
to be trodden underfoot.
00:03:27.24\00:03:28.84
Initially, it was not
Wycliffe's deliberate purpose
00:03:28.87\00:03:32.37
to set himself in
opposition to the power of Rome,
00:03:32.41\00:03:35.88
but devotion to the truth
00:03:35.91\00:03:37.88
could not but
bring him into conflict.
00:03:37.91\00:03:40.42
As the Pharisees of old,
00:03:40.45\00:03:42.38
the papist leaders
were filled with rage
00:03:42.42\00:03:45.02
when they perceived
that this protestant reformer
00:03:45.05\00:03:48.22
was gaining
influence greater than theirs,
00:03:48.26\00:03:50.89
but nonetheless,
Wycliffe fearlessly struck out
00:03:50.93\00:03:54.96
against the errors and abuses
sanctioned by the Roman Church
00:03:55.00\00:03:59.27
even while his hand
was on the frigid handle
00:03:59.30\00:04:02.57
of the door of death
when his enemies sought
00:04:02.60\00:04:05.97
occasion to make him
retract on his deathbed
00:04:06.01\00:04:09.28
his statements and opposition
to the Pope and the Priests
00:04:09.31\00:04:12.88
with firm voice
Wycliffe responded,
00:04:12.91\00:04:16.15
"I shall not die but live
00:04:16.18\00:04:18.05
and declare the evil deeds
of the Friars" and live he did!
00:04:18.09\00:04:23.16
When he arose from the
inactivity of his sick bed,
00:04:23.19\00:04:26.59
John Wycliffe
supplied his countrymen
00:04:26.63\00:04:29.33
with the most powerful weapon
00:04:29.36\00:04:31.60
that he could
against Romanism...
00:04:31.63\00:04:34.17
he gave them the Holy
Bible, nonetheless, alas,
00:04:34.30\00:04:38.14
as it is the
plight of all mortal men,
00:04:38.17\00:04:40.48
John Wycliffe was
laid to rest in the grave
00:04:40.51\00:04:44.35
and yet 43 years
later, in the year 1428,
00:04:44.38\00:04:48.18
the malicious priest
00:04:48.25\00:04:49.62
by the order of The
Council of Constance,
00:04:49.65\00:04:52.02
dug up the bones of Wycliffe,
00:04:52.05\00:04:54.02
burnt them and casted
them into a nearby brook,
00:04:54.06\00:04:57.53
the brook carried his
ashes into the main sea
00:04:57.56\00:05:01.03
and today they
stand as an emblem
00:05:01.06\00:05:03.33
of the worldwide dispersion
of Wycliffe's doctrines.
00:05:03.37\00:05:07.34
Even in his death, God
used the hatred of his opponents
00:05:07.37\00:05:11.31
to immortalize
the profound impact
00:05:11.37\00:05:13.74
of one of His faithful
servants, John Wycliffe,
00:05:13.78\00:05:17.48
the Translator of
the English Bible,
00:05:17.51\00:05:19.98
was a Protestant.
00:05:20.02\00:05:21.82
And let's pray to the
Lord that He unites us all.
00:05:21.85\00:05:24.42
Come on, we are Brothers.
00:05:24.45\00:05:25.79
And lets pray to the
Lord that He unites us all.
00:05:25.82\00:05:28.22
Come on, we are Brothers.
00:05:28.26\00:05:29.79
Let's give each
other a spiritual hug
00:05:29.82\00:05:31.19
and let God complete
the work that He has begun.
00:05:31.23\00:05:34.66
My answer is, "No"
because like John Wycliffe,
00:05:34.70\00:05:38.10
I'm a Protestant...
and I plan on dying.
00:05:38.13\00:05:41.20
I'm a Protestant...
and I plan on dying...
00:05:41.27\00:05:44.31
I'm a Protestant...
00:05:44.34\00:05:46.14
I'm a Protestant...
and I plan on dying...
00:05:46.17\00:05:50.01
and I plan on
dying... dying... dying...
00:05:50.05\00:05:54.35
In the midst of an age
00:06:13.40\00:06:14.84
that appeared to be a
bleak bottomless abyss,
00:06:14.87\00:06:17.94
of vice and ignorance,
00:06:17.97\00:06:19.54
another man was
ordained by the Living God
00:06:19.57\00:06:22.34
to be a vessel through
which this light of truth
00:06:22.38\00:06:24.98
could shine forth to the world
00:06:25.01\00:06:26.95
his name was John
Wesley born on June 17, 1703
00:06:26.98\00:06:32.62
in Epworth, England.
00:06:32.65\00:06:33.99
John Wesley was groomed in
a well-ordered Christian home
00:06:34.02\00:06:37.43
where he was homeschooled
by his mother, Susanna Wesley.
00:06:37.46\00:06:41.06
From a young age, he
learned to be disciplined
00:06:41.10\00:06:44.27
good-mannered and hard-working.
00:06:44.30\00:06:47.00
As an academic, at the
famed Oxford University,
00:06:47.04\00:06:50.91
John Wesley quickly
became distinguished
00:06:50.94\00:06:53.74
as a very studious
and pious young man,
00:06:53.78\00:06:56.48
upon his completion
of his studies there,
00:06:56.51\00:06:59.18
he was ordained as a
Minister of the Anglican Church.
00:06:59.21\00:07:02.65
However, with all of
these accomplishments,
00:07:02.68\00:07:05.29
John Wesley had
yet to experience
00:07:05.32\00:07:08.02
the true peace of
God in his own heart.
00:07:08.06\00:07:10.69
Relying upon his
merits for his own salvation,
00:07:10.73\00:07:14.90
Wesley's soul was as a
parched garden languishing
00:07:14.93\00:07:19.03
for the life-giving virtue
that only the grace of Christ
00:07:19.07\00:07:22.50
can impart, but on May 24, 1738,
00:07:22.54\00:07:26.81
all this would change,
00:07:26.84\00:07:28.74
for on that day, as he
listened to a meeting of
00:07:28.78\00:07:31.88
Martin Luther's preface
to the Epistle of Romans,
00:07:31.91\00:07:35.05
he felt his
heart strangely warmed
00:07:35.08\00:07:37.89
by the eternal good news
that deliverance from sin
00:07:37.95\00:07:41.59
can be found
only in Jesus Christ,
00:07:41.62\00:07:44.19
it was John Wesley's
passion for this truth,
00:07:44.23\00:07:47.70
that salvation only comes
00:07:47.76\00:07:50.07
through the
medium of Jesus Christ
00:07:50.10\00:07:52.70
that led him to
fearlessly strike out
00:07:52.73\00:07:55.30
against the manifold delusions
00:07:55.34\00:07:57.14
that was concocted by
the Roman Catholic Church
00:07:57.21\00:07:59.84
and thereby has
immortalized his efforts
00:07:59.87\00:08:03.85
as a Protestant Reformer
in his now famous address,
00:08:03.91\00:08:07.92
"A Word to a Protestant,"
John Wesley said these words,
00:08:07.95\00:08:13.12
"Do not you call
yourself a Protestant?
00:08:13.15\00:08:16.59
Why so? Do you know
what the word means?
00:08:16.62\00:08:20.03
What is a Protestant?
00:08:20.06\00:08:22.13
I suppose you mean
one that is not a Papist
00:08:22.16\00:08:25.00
But what is a Papist?
Are you desirous to know what
00:08:25.03\00:08:28.74
these words "Papist"
and "Protestant" mean?
00:08:28.80\00:08:30.87
A Papist is one who holds
the Pope or Bishop of Rome
00:08:30.91\00:08:34.68
to be the Head of the
whole Christian Church
00:08:34.74\00:08:36.78
and the Church of Rome
00:08:36.81\00:08:38.41
or that which owns
the Pope as their Head
00:08:38.48\00:08:41.18
to be the only Christian Church.
00:08:41.22\00:08:43.22
In the course of the years
00:08:43.25\00:08:44.99
many errors
crept into this Church,
00:08:45.05\00:08:46.96
of which good men
complained from time to time.
00:08:46.99\00:08:49.82
At last about 200 years ago,
00:08:49.86\00:08:52.09
the Pope appointed
many Bishops and others
00:08:52.13\00:08:54.60
to meet at a town in
Germany called Trent.
00:08:54.63\00:08:57.07
But these,
00:08:57.10\00:08:58.47
instead of
amending those errors...
00:08:58.53\00:09:00.40
ESTABLISHED them all by a law,
00:09:00.44\00:09:02.47
and so delivered them down
to all succeeding generations.
00:09:02.50\00:09:05.71
Among these
errors may be numbered,
00:09:05.74\00:09:07.74
their doctrine
of seven sacraments;
00:09:07.78\00:09:09.88
of transubstantiation, of
Communion in one kind only,
00:09:09.91\00:09:13.82
of purgatory and
praying for the dead therein,
00:09:13.85\00:09:16.65
of veneration of
relics and of indulgences,
00:09:16.69\00:09:19.52
or pardons granted by the
Pope and to be bought for money,
00:09:19.55\00:09:23.16
the doctrine of persecution...
this has been for many ages
00:09:23.22\00:09:26.80
a favorite doctrine
of the Church of Rome,
00:09:26.83\00:09:29.20
and the Papist, in
general, still maintained
00:09:29.23\00:09:31.63
that all heretics are
to be compelled to receive
00:09:31.67\00:09:34.00
what they call the "True Church"
00:09:34.04\00:09:35.67
to be forced into the
Church or out of the world...
00:09:35.70\00:09:39.27
Well, might our forefathers
protest against these?
00:09:39.31\00:09:42.64
And hence... it was that
they were called "Protestants"
00:09:42.68\00:09:46.61
even because...
they publicly protested
00:09:46.65\00:09:50.05
as against all the
errors of the Papists.
00:09:50.09\00:09:53.42
There's a challenge for you.
00:09:53.46\00:09:55.69
Sir, the protest has
been over for 15 years
00:09:55.72\00:10:01.60
and I get a little cheeky here
00:10:01.66\00:10:03.60
because I challenge my
Protestant Pastor friends,
00:10:03.67\00:10:06.63
"If there is no more protest...
00:10:06.67\00:10:08.00
how can there be a
Protestant Church?"
00:10:08.04\00:10:14.41
Maybe we're now
all Catholics again.
00:10:14.44\00:10:20.52
Hi and you're now with
The Forerunner Chronicles...
00:10:41.57\00:10:44.47
All right everybody,
so, as many of you out there
00:10:44.51\00:10:47.38
should already
know, on this past June 8,
00:10:47.41\00:10:49.81
Pope Francis was able to
organize a historic peace talk
00:10:49.84\00:10:53.18
within the
confines of the Vatican
00:10:53.21\00:10:54.85
between the two critical
players of the Middle East
00:10:54.88\00:10:57.65
which are Israel and Palestine.
00:10:57.69\00:10:59.75
Two factions... which
have had a longstanding feud
00:10:59.79\00:11:02.69
for quite some time now...
00:11:02.72\00:11:04.06
but what made that event
even more historic in nature,
00:11:04.09\00:11:06.90
is that, Pope
Francis, by some means,
00:11:06.93\00:11:09.20
was able to
organize these peace talks
00:11:09.23\00:11:11.43
just weeks after the
United States of America's
00:11:11.47\00:11:15.24
Peace talks between
Israel and Palestine
00:11:15.30\00:11:18.01
which they sponsored for them,
miserably collapsed in failure.
00:11:18.04\00:11:21.94
So, Pope Francis has some very
00:11:21.98\00:11:24.31
interesting
timing, don't you think?
00:11:24.38\00:11:26.05
But if that event,
00:11:26.08\00:11:27.92
all by itself wasn't
historic enough for you,
00:11:27.95\00:11:30.35
Pope Francis made more
history at the same time...
00:11:30.39\00:11:34.16
at the same venue... by
organizing the very unusual
00:11:34.19\00:11:37.76
Prayer Summit between the
three religions of the world
00:11:37.79\00:11:41.26
to come together and
pray for peace and forgiveness
00:11:41.33\00:11:44.63
and for God to bless Creation
at the same time in the Vatican.
00:11:44.67\00:11:48.74
Islam, Judaism and Christianity
represented by the Pope
00:11:48.77\00:11:53.14
united in prayer for peace.
00:11:53.17\00:11:55.48
Now, Ladies and Gentlemen,
you may have not noticed this,
00:11:55.51\00:11:58.45
for when Pope Francis did this,
00:11:58.48\00:12:00.62
he was getting on
the world's loudspeaker
00:12:00.65\00:12:03.72
making a very clear
and profound announcement
00:12:03.79\00:12:06.82
to the inhabitants of our world,
00:12:06.86\00:12:08.19
and the announcement
he was making is this,
00:12:08.22\00:12:10.19
"Ladies and
Gentlemen of the world,
00:12:10.23\00:12:11.89
Leaders of our world,
00:12:11.93\00:12:13.26
you see that the world's
global leading civil superpower,
00:12:13.29\00:12:17.67
the United States of
America failed miserably
00:12:17.70\00:12:20.40
in bringing about peace between
these two feuding factions
00:12:20.44\00:12:24.37
in the Middle East, however,
00:12:24.41\00:12:25.97
where the United
States of America,
00:12:26.04\00:12:27.68
the world's leading
civil superpower fell...
00:12:27.71\00:12:30.31
the world's
leading religious power...
00:12:30.35\00:12:32.91
the Papacy... led
out by its Pope...
00:12:32.98\00:12:35.28
will be
successful in fomenting peace
00:12:35.32\00:12:37.52
amongst these two
feuding factions. "
00:12:37.55\00:12:39.45
And Ladies and
Gentlemen of the World,
00:12:39.49\00:12:41.32
you know that there's no
other religious denomination
00:12:41.39\00:12:43.49
or religious leader in existence
00:12:43.53\00:12:45.46
that can bring about
peace and unity amongst
00:12:45.49\00:12:47.56
all the face in our world,
00:12:47.60\00:12:48.93
however, there is
one religious leader
00:12:48.96\00:12:51.27
the Pope... that
does have the power
00:12:51.30\00:12:53.60
and the authority to
bring about peace and unity
00:12:53.64\00:12:57.01
amongst all the
face in our world.
00:12:57.04\00:13:00.11
Ladies and Gentlemen, I
hope you realize what you saw,
00:13:00.14\00:13:03.95
because when Pope Francis
00:13:03.98\00:13:05.91
held these two
events simultaneously,
00:13:05.95\00:13:08.15
he was strategically
positioning himself in the midst
00:13:08.18\00:13:11.45
to declare himself as
the only world leader...
00:13:11.49\00:13:15.16
the singular, sovereign,
moral entity in this world
00:13:15.19\00:13:19.83
that can bring about peace
00:13:19.86\00:13:22.30
and unity within the
realms of civil power
00:13:22.33\00:13:25.57
as well as peace and unity
00:13:25.60\00:13:27.97
within the realms of
religion and faith...
00:13:28.00\00:13:31.21
he was presenting himself
00:13:31.27\00:13:32.84
as the world's
preeminent moral authority
00:13:32.87\00:13:35.64
in both Church and State,
but, if that wasn't enough,
00:13:35.68\00:13:41.45
maintaining his
youthful... "bolt-like pace"
00:13:41.48\00:13:44.95
Pope Francis, just days
after these historic peace talks
00:13:44.99\00:13:48.86
and that historic Prayer Summit,
00:13:48.92\00:13:50.63
had an interview with a
Spanish magazine, La Vanguardia,
00:13:50.66\00:13:53.90
at which point he was asked
a very intriguing question,
00:13:53.93\00:13:57.03
which drew out of him a
more blood-curdling response,
00:13:57.07\00:14:00.07
and the question the interviewer
asked Pope Francis was this...
00:14:00.10\00:14:03.71
What are his
thoughts on fundamentalism?
00:14:03.74\00:14:06.91
This was his response.
00:14:06.98\00:14:08.61
"A fundamentalist group,
although it may not kill anyone,
00:14:08.64\00:14:12.75
although it may not
strike anyone, is violent.
00:14:12.78\00:14:15.95
The mental
structure of fundamentalists
00:14:15.98\00:14:18.65
is violence in
the name of God. "
00:14:18.69\00:14:21.19
Now, Ladies and Gentlemen,
00:14:21.22\00:14:22.56
if you don't find this
statement from Pope Francis
00:14:22.59\00:14:25.93
even a little bit disturbing,
00:14:25.96\00:14:27.56
it's either because you
really don't have in your mind
00:14:27.60\00:14:30.47
an accurate definition
of what a Fundamentalist is,
00:14:30.50\00:14:33.27
or "orange may be the new
black" but you're still watching
00:14:33.30\00:14:36.57
entirely too much
reality television,
00:14:36.60\00:14:38.54
because this statement
that was made by Pope Francis,
00:14:38.57\00:14:41.61
was a virtual declaration of war
00:14:41.64\00:14:44.11
against all true
Bible-believing Christians.
00:14:44.15\00:14:46.92
You see, the
term "Fundamentalist"
00:14:46.95\00:14:48.72
although you may have heard
it kicked around too many times,
00:14:48.75\00:14:51.35
after the 9/11 fiasco,
00:14:51.39\00:14:53.25
so when you think
of Fundamentalists
00:14:53.29\00:14:54.92
you think of
radical Islam and terrorism,
00:14:54.96\00:14:56.93
but originally...
00:14:56.96\00:14:58.29
did you know that
the term "Fundamentalist"
00:14:58.33\00:14:59.89
was coined to
define "Christians. "
00:14:59.93\00:15:02.46
You see there were
some Bible Conferences
00:15:02.50\00:15:04.77
that were held in
between 1878 all through 1897
00:15:04.80\00:15:09.10
called the
Niagara Bible Conferences.
00:15:09.14\00:15:11.04
Fundamentalism was originated
from those Conferences.
00:15:11.07\00:15:14.58
Then Fundamentalism bloomed
in the United States of America
00:15:14.61\00:15:17.91
around 1901... and it bloomed
as a result of Christians
00:15:17.95\00:15:21.38
wanting to fight back
against this tide of Secularism
00:15:21.42\00:15:24.45
and Darwinism
00:15:24.49\00:15:25.82
and higher Criticism that
was coming into the Church
00:15:25.85\00:15:28.42
to define the
truth of the Bible,
00:15:28.46\00:15:30.23
they wanted to get
back to Bible truth.
00:15:30.26\00:15:32.76
So, Fundamentalism
came into existence.
00:15:32.79\00:15:35.26
And now there are five
doctrines... five beliefs
00:15:35.30\00:15:38.00
which are used to
define a Fundamentalist.
00:15:38.03\00:15:40.74
Two of these
doctrines or beliefs are:
00:15:40.77\00:15:43.27
if an individual
believes that the Bible
00:15:43.30\00:15:45.77
is the infallible Word of God,
00:15:45.84\00:15:48.14
that individual
is a Fundamentalist.
00:15:48.18\00:15:50.71
and if an individual believes
in the literal, physical,
00:15:50.75\00:15:54.62
personal Second
Coming of Jesus Christ,
00:15:54.65\00:15:57.85
that individual
is a Fundamentalist.
00:15:57.89\00:16:00.89
And I know that it may be
hard for many of you out there
00:16:00.92\00:16:04.09
to really
believe that Pope Francis
00:16:04.13\00:16:05.86
or any other Roman Catholic
Bishop... for that matter
00:16:05.89\00:16:08.83
truly believe that a person
that believes that the Bible
00:16:08.86\00:16:11.77
is the infallible Word of God,
00:16:11.80\00:16:13.13
and that Jesus Christ
is going to literally,
00:16:13.17\00:16:15.07
personally
return to Planet Earth
00:16:15.10\00:16:16.44
for the second time,
are people that are worthy
00:16:16.47\00:16:18.84
of being defined as
"Violent Fundamentalists. "
00:16:18.87\00:16:21.88
But guess what? That's
exactly what they think.
00:16:21.94\00:16:24.95
And if you don't believe
me, then believe the words
00:16:24.98\00:16:27.95
of this Roman Catholic Bishop
00:16:27.98\00:16:29.98
that spoke in this BBC
Forum just two years ago.
00:16:30.05\00:16:33.39
Take a look at the clip.
00:16:33.46\00:16:34.79
Pastor, from the
Seventh-day Adventist,
00:16:34.82\00:16:38.16
you believe that
the end is coming,
00:16:38.19\00:16:41.76
not necessarily this year,
00:16:41.80\00:16:43.13
but you believe
that it is coming.
00:16:43.16\00:16:44.70
What will happen?
00:16:44.73\00:16:46.07
Yeah, I believe
the end is coming.
00:16:46.10\00:16:49.57
What will happen is,
according to the Biblical record
00:16:49.60\00:16:53.88
Christ would descend
from heaven with his angels,
00:16:53.94\00:16:59.01
He is coming to take
those who have accepted Him...
00:16:59.08\00:17:04.12
have been saved by His Grace...
00:17:04.19\00:17:05.62
Can I just... will
this literally happen?
00:17:05.65\00:17:07.02
Pastor: It will literally happen
Interviewer: That the sky will
00:17:07.06\00:17:09.09
There will be the
sound of the trumpet,
00:17:09.12\00:17:11.26
there will be the
voice of the archangel,
00:17:11.29\00:17:13.33
there will be the appearance
of Christ... literally...
00:17:13.40\00:17:16.16
with his angels...
Interviewer: Yeah...
00:17:16.20\00:17:17.53
He is coming to take those
00:17:17.57\00:17:19.27
who've accepted
Him and believe in Him
00:17:19.30\00:17:20.67
and rescue them from this earth.
00:17:20.70\00:17:22.90
He's going to bring in
justice and righteousness...
00:17:22.94\00:17:25.41
Will the sky part?
00:17:25.44\00:17:26.78
The sky is going to open,
according to Biblical record,
00:17:26.81\00:17:30.11
the sky is going to open,
00:17:30.15\00:17:31.55
He's going to
descend with his angels,
00:17:31.58\00:17:33.42
and He is coming...
00:17:33.48\00:17:34.82
to take those who've
been saved by His grace.
00:17:34.85\00:17:37.55
People talking
together... Laughter...
00:17:37.59\00:17:40.62
Wait a minute... you're
not going to be laughing soon
00:17:40.66\00:17:44.86
I'll tell you that...
00:17:44.89\00:17:47.16
Listen, it says...
00:17:47.20\00:17:49.40
this is all in
the Bible isn't it?
00:17:49.43\00:17:50.80
it's in Revelation and
Thessalonians and it's in...
00:17:50.83\00:17:53.17
It's in Revelation,
it's in Thessalonians,
00:17:53.20\00:17:55.10
it's in the book of John...
00:17:55.17\00:17:56.50
What happens then...
00:17:56.54\00:17:57.87
what happens to you in
the... there's a 1,000-year...
00:17:57.91\00:17:59.27
a 1,000-year
period, what happens then?
00:17:59.31\00:18:01.28
Yes... a period of 1,000 years,
00:18:01.34\00:18:03.28
and the 1,000 years
begin at the coming of Christ,
00:18:03.31\00:18:07.68
He comes... to take those...
00:18:07.72\00:18:10.55
like I said, who've
been saved by His grace,
00:18:10.59\00:18:12.22
Hmmm...
00:18:12.25\00:18:13.59
...and those who have
not accepted Christ...
00:18:13.62\00:18:16.02
because God gave us... He
gives everybody the provision
00:18:16.06\00:18:19.86
to accept the salvation
that He offers... free of charge
00:18:19.89\00:18:23.70
His offer of
salvation free of charge
00:18:23.73\00:18:25.67
for those who accept Him.
00:18:25.70\00:18:27.64
So, it's not just
Seventh-day Adventists?
00:18:27.67\00:18:29.24
Not just Seventh-day Adventists,
it's open to everyone.
00:18:29.27\00:18:31.11
Everyone who have
accepted Christ...
00:18:31.14\00:18:32.47
but not Muslims or Hindus or...
00:18:32.51\00:18:33.84
Sikhs? Yeah...
00:18:33.88\00:18:36.91
Yeah, yeah... Christ,
He makes a statement...
00:18:36.95\00:18:40.05
Or Jews? No...
00:18:40.12\00:18:41.58
He makes a statement in the
book of John chapter 14 verse 6,
00:18:41.62\00:18:45.95
It says that, "I am the
way, the truth, and the life:"
00:18:45.99\00:18:51.23
But He only takes
those who believe in Him.
00:18:51.29\00:18:52.69
What about children?
00:18:52.73\00:18:55.26
sorry... I'm coming there...
00:18:55.30\00:18:56.97
"I am the way, the
truth, and the life:
00:18:57.00\00:18:58.50
no one comes unto the
Father, except through me. "
00:18:58.53\00:19:02.34
It's a radical statement.
00:19:02.37\00:19:03.71
It is a radical statement.
00:19:03.74\00:19:05.07
It's a radical statement.
Sorry, sorry, let me just finish
00:19:05.11\00:19:12.61
so what I say is that,
00:19:12.68\00:19:14.88
"Salvation comes
through only Christ. "
00:19:14.92\00:19:17.92
Hmmm... Salvation
comes through Him.
00:19:17.95\00:19:20.82
So, if we accept Him...
00:19:20.86\00:19:23.73
Okay, so, we've got a vision,
if that's the right word,
00:19:23.76\00:19:27.50
of what's going to happen
00:19:27.53\00:19:28.86
and it's in the Bible,
we know it's in the Bible...
00:19:28.90\00:19:32.10
It's fundamentalism
we're talking about...
00:19:32.13\00:19:33.77
and
fundamentalism produces problems
00:19:33.80\00:19:36.44
in all major world religions,
00:19:36.47\00:19:38.07
and it produces
problems... People clapping...
00:19:38.11\00:19:40.61
and this is a fundamentalistic
interpretation of Scripture,
00:19:40.64\00:19:46.15
which actually misunderstands
a very poetic piece of writing
00:19:46.18\00:19:49.68
in the book of Revelation,
it misunderstands Paul's view
00:19:49.75\00:19:53.22
that the Kingdom
was coming immediately,
00:19:53.25\00:19:56.16
not in a 1,000 or
2,000 years' time,
00:19:56.22\00:19:59.06
but that was... we now
know, a misunderstanding
00:19:59.09\00:20:01.96
of Paul and the
early Christians,
00:20:02.00\00:20:03.33
they thought Christ
was coming back again.
00:20:03.37\00:20:05.73
We now work on an
entirely different basis
00:20:05.77\00:20:07.60
in the mainstream...
00:20:07.64\00:20:08.97
It's in the New Testament!
00:20:09.00\00:20:10.74
So what? There are things
in the New Testament, Nicky,
00:20:10.77\00:20:13.41
which we actually have
to reinterpret in the light
00:20:13.44\00:20:16.01
of Biblical criticism and modern
understanding of Scripture
00:20:16.04\00:20:20.22
and this fundamentalist
approach... doesn't work. "
00:20:20.25\00:20:22.92
Well, Ladies and
Gentlemen, there you have it.
00:20:22.95\00:20:26.02
According to Pope
Francis and his Papacy,
00:20:26.05\00:20:28.49
any group or individual
that believes that the Bible
00:20:28.52\00:20:31.69
is the infallible Word of God,
00:20:31.73\00:20:33.46
or that the Second
Coming of Jesus Christ
00:20:33.50\00:20:36.10
will be a literal,
physical, personal event...
00:20:36.13\00:20:38.70
these
individuals and these groups,
00:20:38.73\00:20:42.70
although they may not advocate
violence in the least bit,
00:20:42.74\00:20:46.31
although they may have
never even struck anyone,
00:20:46.34\00:20:49.68
they are still "violent"
according to Pope Francis.
00:20:49.71\00:20:53.01
And if,
opportunity presents itself,
00:20:53.05\00:20:55.75
these groups will
carry out acts of violence
00:20:55.78\00:20:58.75
in the name of God...
according to Pope Francis.
00:20:58.79\00:21:01.56
Do you know any groups
or individuals like that,
00:21:01.59\00:21:04.36
that believe that the Bible
00:21:04.39\00:21:05.73
is the unquestionable,
invaluable Word of God
00:21:05.76\00:21:08.36
and that Jesus Christ
will return to Planet Earth
00:21:08.40\00:21:10.97
literally, physically,
personally for the second time?
00:21:11.00\00:21:14.07
Well warn them that
Pope Francis is declaring
00:21:14.10\00:21:17.21
to the world...
that they are violent.
00:21:17.24\00:21:19.07
Now that's a very disturbingly
dangerous statement to be made
00:21:19.11\00:21:23.45
by the man whom the
world is now looking upon
00:21:23.48\00:21:26.72
as the world's leader of
morality and peace making.
00:21:26.75\00:21:31.02
Ladies and Gentlemen,
00:21:31.05\00:21:32.49
the Bible tells us in the book
of Daniel chapter 8 and verse 25
00:21:32.52\00:21:36.52
a verse of Scripture which
all the Protestants of old...
00:21:36.56\00:21:39.46
even Sir Isaac
Newton, pinpointed
00:21:39.49\00:21:42.33
as a verse of Scripture
that identifies the anti-Christ
00:21:42.36\00:21:46.30
as being the Pope.
00:21:46.33\00:21:47.67
We are told there,
"And through his policy
00:21:47.70\00:21:50.81
he shall cause craft
to prosper in his hand;
00:21:50.84\00:21:53.88
and shall magnify
himself in his heart... "
00:21:53.91\00:21:56.88
And I find it very
interesting that the Bible says
00:21:56.91\00:21:59.78
that the Pope...
through his policy...
00:21:59.81\00:22:01.78
will cause "craft"
which is deceit and treachery
00:22:01.85\00:22:04.72
to prosper in his hand,
00:22:04.75\00:22:06.25
because the word "policy"
there means intelligence,
00:22:06.29\00:22:09.06
and according to
the former CIA Director,
00:22:09.09\00:22:13.03
E. Howard Hunt,
the Jesuit Institution
00:22:13.09\00:22:16.93
is the most advanced and
formidable intelligence agency
00:22:16.97\00:22:22.00
that has ever been in existence,
00:22:22.07\00:22:23.67
and Pope Francis is
the very first Jesuit Pope.
00:22:23.71\00:22:27.58
Therefore, as the Bible
says, "Through his policy... "
00:22:27.61\00:22:31.05
or rather...
through his intelligence,
00:22:31.08\00:22:33.11
even his
Jesuit-trained intelligence
00:22:33.15\00:22:35.12
in the case of Pope Francis,
00:22:35.15\00:22:36.89
he is deceiving the
majority of our world
00:22:36.92\00:22:39.69
not only into
conveying into his hands
00:22:39.75\00:22:42.26
or into looking upon him
as one who has the authority
00:22:42.32\00:22:46.23
of being the
world's leading agent
00:22:46.26\00:22:48.73
of morality and
peacemaking, but he's also,
00:22:48.76\00:22:51.30
deceiving the majority of
the inhabitants of Planet Earth
00:22:51.33\00:22:54.47
into believing that
he's the most humble,
00:22:54.50\00:22:56.67
pious world leader in existence,
00:22:56.71\00:22:58.64
when according
to the Word of God,
00:22:58.67\00:23:01.18
he is magnifying
himself in his heart.
00:23:01.21\00:23:03.65
That's what the Bible says in
Daniel chapter 8 and verse 25.
00:23:03.68\00:23:06.78
You see, when you look at
the Pope, you may see a lowly,
00:23:06.82\00:23:09.75
humble, loving man...
00:23:09.78\00:23:11.12
that only wants
good for everyone
00:23:11.15\00:23:12.72
but the Word of God tells us
00:23:12.75\00:23:14.29
that man looks on
the outward appearance
00:23:14.32\00:23:16.29
but God looks on the heart.
00:23:16.32\00:23:17.99
And according
to the Word of God,
00:23:18.03\00:23:19.76
this man is a proud man
00:23:19.79\00:23:22.10
that is magnifying
himself in his heart,
00:23:22.13\00:23:24.90
and as he is doing this,
the Bible goes on to say,
00:23:24.93\00:23:28.20
in Daniel
chapter 8 and verse 25,
00:23:28.24\00:23:30.34
"... and by peace,
he shall destroy many:"
00:23:30.37\00:23:33.81
as surely as the
world's inhabitants
00:23:33.84\00:23:36.64
even the Leaders of
the Nations of this world,
00:23:36.68\00:23:39.21
are now looking at the Pope
as the leading agent of peace
00:23:39.25\00:23:43.85
on Planet Earth, when
he made this statement
00:23:43.89\00:23:46.82
that Fundamentalists...
are violent...
00:23:46.86\00:23:49.19
what he was
simply saying is this,
00:23:49.22\00:23:51.49
"For peace to exist
amongst the nations...
00:23:51.53\00:23:54.93
for unity to be fomented
amongst all religious faiths,
00:23:54.96\00:23:59.10
Fundamentalists
must be done away with
00:23:59.13\00:24:02.07
because peace and unity cannot
co-exist with Fundamentalists. "
00:24:02.10\00:24:07.44
He is thereby, placing in danger
00:24:07.48\00:24:10.98
the lives of those who
keep the Commandments of God
00:24:11.01\00:24:14.05
and the
testimony of Jesus Christ,
00:24:14.12\00:24:16.55
who believe in
all of the Word of God
00:24:16.58\00:24:18.99
and that the Lord and Saviour
of all humanity, Jesus Christ,
00:24:19.02\00:24:23.09
will one day return to save us
00:24:23.12\00:24:25.29
literally,
personally, physically...
00:24:25.33\00:24:28.23
he is setting up a war to
go against the people of God.
00:24:28.26\00:24:34.44
The Bible told us this would
happen in the book of Revelation
00:24:34.47\00:24:37.84
chapter 12 and
verse 17 which tells us,
00:24:37.87\00:24:39.77
"And the dragon was
wroth with the woman,"
00:24:39.81\00:24:41.64
which is God's church
00:24:41.68\00:24:43.01
"and went to make war
with the remnant of her seed,
00:24:43.04\00:24:45.28
which keep the
commandments of God,
00:24:45.31\00:24:47.15
and have the
testimony of Jesus Christ. "
00:24:47.18\00:24:49.62
Ladies and Gentlemen,
00:24:49.68\00:24:51.55
the Bible tells us in
the book of Revelation
00:24:51.59\00:24:54.22
chapter 13 and verse 4,
00:24:54.26\00:24:55.62
"... that they worshipped
the dragon" the devil...
00:24:55.69\00:24:58.86
"which gave
power unto the beast:"
00:24:58.89\00:25:01.03
which is the Papacy
led up by the Pope...
00:25:01.06\00:25:03.33
"and they worshipped
the beast," the Papacy...
00:25:03.37\00:25:05.63
saying, "Who is
like unto the Pope?
00:25:05.67\00:25:08.27
Who is like unto the beast?
00:25:08.30\00:25:10.31
Who is able to
make war with him?"
00:25:10.34\00:25:12.94
As you saw the Pope
go through Palestine,
00:25:12.97\00:25:15.61
without bulletproof glass
00:25:15.64\00:25:17.85
and as you saw the
Pope go through Italy
00:25:17.88\00:25:20.58
in a mafia-ridden area
without any bulletproof glass,
00:25:20.62\00:25:24.92
the Pope was making
a profound statement.
00:25:24.95\00:25:27.46
He was saying,
"There is no world leader
00:25:27.49\00:25:29.92
that would ever dare go
00:25:29.96\00:25:31.69
into these troubled
spots on Planet Earth...
00:25:31.73\00:25:33.63
without the protection of
armored or bulletproof glass
00:25:33.70\00:25:36.80
but I, the Pope,
can do this because,
00:25:36.83\00:25:39.47
'Who is like unto the beast,
00:25:39.50\00:25:41.40
who is able to
make war with the beast'
00:25:41.44\00:25:44.77
because I am the Man of Peace. "
00:25:44.81\00:25:47.84
My friends, there is one
who will make war with him
00:25:47.88\00:25:53.62
and who will overcome him...
00:25:53.65\00:25:55.48
for the Bible tells us,
00:25:55.52\00:25:57.09
back in Daniel
chapter 8 and verse 25
00:25:57.12\00:26:00.26
"And he shall stand up against
the Prince of princes... "
00:26:00.29\00:26:03.83
meaning that this
anti-Christ Power would stand up
00:26:03.86\00:26:07.10
against Jesus Christ Himself,
00:26:07.13\00:26:09.10
but he will be
broken without hand,
00:26:09.13\00:26:11.67
God Himself will destroy him.
00:26:11.70\00:26:14.64
Therefore, the Bible warns us,
00:26:14.67\00:26:17.54
in Revelation
chapter 13 and verse 8,
00:26:17.57\00:26:20.28
"And all that dwell upon
the earth shall worship him,
00:26:20.31\00:26:24.75
whose names are not
written in the book of life
00:26:24.78\00:26:28.15
of the Lamb slain from
the foundation of the world. "
00:26:28.18\00:26:31.29
You can see now,
you can already see now,
00:26:31.32\00:26:34.59
how the majority
of the world is poised
00:26:34.62\00:26:37.83
to fall on their
knees and worship the beast.
00:26:37.86\00:26:41.66
Only those, whose names are
00:26:41.70\00:26:44.90
written in the
Lamb's book of Life,
00:26:44.93\00:26:46.67
only those... who
have had their sins washed
00:26:46.70\00:26:49.34
in the blood of Jesus Christ,
00:26:49.37\00:26:50.71
only those who will now fall
on the rock... Christ Jesus...
00:26:50.74\00:26:53.78
and be broken... turn
to Him with repentance,
00:26:53.81\00:26:56.61
turn to Him in prayer
and asking Him for His grace,
00:26:56.64\00:27:00.22
asking Him for power to
live a life of victory over sin
00:27:00.25\00:27:03.75
in prayer and
studying of His Word...
00:27:03.79\00:27:06.09
developing characters
00:27:06.15\00:27:07.59
that mirror the
character of our Saviour,
00:27:07.62\00:27:09.92
only those who
have this experience,
00:27:09.99\00:27:12.59
will have their names
in the Lamb's book of Life
00:27:12.63\00:27:15.93
and will not
wander after the beast.
00:27:15.96\00:27:19.20
I pray that you
are in that number...
00:27:19.23\00:27:22.44
choose wisely... as always...
00:27:22.47\00:27:25.71
this is The Forerunner...
00:27:25.74\00:27:27.34
and whether you like it or
not, the truth is the truth.
00:27:27.38\00:27:31.98
