Welcome to Heavens Declare. 00:00:23.52\00:00:25.45 I'm Jim Burr and we're sharing the heavens. 00:00:25.49\00:00:27.29 Our title today is "Life on Other Planets". 00:00:27.32\00:00:31.43 And actually we're going to pick up a couple, 00:00:31.46\00:00:34.46 there was a couple of images from the previous program. 00:00:34.50\00:00:39.00 We didn't have time for that, I really want to put them here 00:00:39.03\00:00:41.64 and they're going to fit along pretty good with the, 00:00:41.67\00:00:44.84 the subject of Life on Other Planets. 00:00:44.87\00:00:47.34 Here there's a lot of talk about aliens and UFOs. 00:00:47.38\00:00:52.71 And I needed to tell you that I don't believe 00:00:52.75\00:00:56.79 there are any aliens coming here to earth. 00:00:56.82\00:00:59.65 I don't believe there is any UFOs, 00:00:59.69\00:01:01.69 I think the UFOs are a work of Satan. 00:01:01.72\00:01:04.89 I think that the all of the Star Wars 00:01:04.93\00:01:07.36 and that type of videos 00:01:07.40\00:01:09.86 that just sweep this nation are preparing people 00:01:09.90\00:01:13.10 for a deception of false Christ coming. 00:01:13.13\00:01:19.44 And I had gentleman ask me, 00:01:19.47\00:01:21.11 I was on a bus one day and he said, 00:01:21.14\00:01:23.35 he was the driver of the bus and he said, 00:01:23.38\00:01:24.78 "You know, do you believe in aliens?" 00:01:24.81\00:01:26.15 And I said, "I think 00:01:26.18\00:01:27.52 some of it may be government activities, 00:01:27.55\00:01:29.42 some would be, the rest of it is demonic activity. 00:01:29.45\00:01:32.99 And I have really had this on pretty good authority, 00:01:33.02\00:01:35.36 had a friend, a business contact. 00:01:35.39\00:01:37.89 I was so closely working with this man, in fact, 00:01:37.93\00:01:40.56 I have a key for his manufacturing facility, 00:01:40.60\00:01:42.93 we were working back and forth. 00:01:42.96\00:01:44.30 One day I got a call and he says, "We need to talk. 00:01:44.33\00:01:47.67 Can we go to lunch?" 00:01:47.70\00:01:49.04 And I said, "Yes," and we went to lunch and he, 00:01:49.07\00:01:51.54 I rode in with him and his wife in the vehicle 00:01:51.57\00:01:53.54 and he stopped at the parking lot 00:01:53.58\00:01:55.74 and he turned at me and he says, 00:01:55.78\00:01:57.68 "You have been talking about your religion 00:01:57.71\00:01:59.41 and it's causing some problems." 00:01:59.45\00:02:01.88 And I haven't been witnessing 00:02:01.92\00:02:04.49 to any of his workers and his people 00:02:04.52\00:02:05.92 "how would he know this?" 00:02:05.95\00:02:07.29 And he said, "Well, we met last night 00:02:07.32\00:02:08.96 with your spirit guys. 00:02:08.99\00:02:10.33 You have two spirit guys, you're not listening to them." 00:02:10.36\00:02:12.86 Now we know he says, "I know you're godly person, 00:02:12.89\00:02:16.33 I can see it in your life. 00:02:16.36\00:02:18.47 See it in your family, 00:02:18.50\00:02:20.00 but you're not listening to your spirit guys 00:02:20.04\00:02:22.10 and we would, your spirit guys want you to come tonight. 00:02:22.14\00:02:25.24 We're going to meet with your spirit guys tonight 00:02:25.27\00:02:27.98 and they want you to come and meet them 00:02:28.01\00:02:29.91 and we're not asking you to change, 00:02:29.94\00:02:31.38 we're just asking you to take one more step 00:02:31.41\00:02:33.68 and, and you can break this cycle of death 00:02:33.72\00:02:36.45 and reincarnation if you take one more step." 00:02:36.48\00:02:39.49 And I said disappointed once for a man to die 00:02:39.52\00:02:41.79 and after that the judgment. 00:02:41.82\00:02:43.56 And they said, "Well, yeah, Joseph said that Jim Burr 00:02:43.59\00:02:45.79 would be a hard nut to crack. 00:02:45.83\00:02:48.63 But they told me about alien abductions 00:02:48.66\00:02:52.30 and a blue light 00:02:52.33\00:02:53.67 that was circling the earth 00:02:53.70\00:02:55.04 and all this kind of fits with the concept 00:02:55.07\00:02:58.37 that at the very end of time, there's going to be deceptions. 00:02:58.41\00:03:01.31 People are going to be deceived and the Bible tells us, 00:03:01.34\00:03:03.18 "There will be false Christ and false prophets." 00:03:03.21\00:03:05.98 And so I don't believe that, 00:03:06.01\00:03:07.85 that the UFOs are really aliens, 00:03:07.88\00:03:12.19 I think it's a satanic activity that's going on. 00:03:12.22\00:03:16.46 And in fact, NASA is... 00:03:16.49\00:03:21.66 There was a meeting of NASA scientists on July 15, 2014. 00:03:21.70\00:03:26.33 And in there are the statements made that aliens 00:03:26.37\00:03:30.31 and new earths will be ours inside 20 years. 00:03:30.34\00:03:33.44 E.T., habitable planets 00:03:33.48\00:03:35.31 will soon be up with our new scopes. 00:03:35.34\00:03:39.78 A group of top NASA scientists 00:03:39.81\00:03:41.78 told the space agency chief yesterday that, 00:03:41.82\00:03:44.89 "The forthcoming generation of space telescopes 00:03:44.92\00:03:47.26 are likely to discover 00:03:47.29\00:03:48.82 habitable earths like earth like worlds, 00:03:48.86\00:03:52.89 and probably alien life perhaps within 20 years." 00:03:52.93\00:03:58.23 And if you go to The Great Controversy 00:03:58.27\00:04:00.54 and you read in page 624, 00:04:00.57\00:04:02.54 it talks about these last day events. 00:04:02.57\00:04:06.01 It says here that, 00:04:06.04\00:04:07.38 "Fearful sights of a supernatural nature 00:04:07.41\00:04:09.34 will soon be revealed in the heavens. 00:04:09.38\00:04:11.15 Fearful sights of a supernatural nature 00:04:11.18\00:04:14.32 revealed in the heavens. 00:04:14.35\00:04:15.68 The spirits of devils will go forth 00:04:15.72\00:04:17.25 to the kings of the earth 00:04:17.29\00:04:19.05 and to the whole world, to fasten them in deception, 00:04:19.09\00:04:23.59 and urge them on to unite with Satan 00:04:23.63\00:04:27.30 in his last great struggle. 00:04:27.33\00:04:30.67 By these agencies, rulers 00:04:30.70\00:04:32.40 and subjects will alike be deceived. 00:04:32.43\00:04:35.90 Persons will arise pretending to be Christ Himself, 00:04:35.94\00:04:38.51 and claiming the title and worship 00:04:38.54\00:04:41.94 which belongs to the world's Redeemer. 00:04:41.98\00:04:44.28 They will perform wonderful miracles of healing 00:04:44.31\00:04:47.28 and will profess to have revelations from heaven 00:04:47.32\00:04:51.85 contradicting this testimony of Scriptures..." 00:04:51.89\00:04:54.26 Boy, I'll tell you, this is being fulfilled today. 00:04:54.29\00:04:58.26 "The shout of triumph..." 00:04:58.29\00:04:59.63 As it goes on, this is The Great Controversy 624. 00:04:59.66\00:05:01.96 "The shout of triumph rings out upon the air:" 00:05:02.00\00:05:05.67 And I like to put the word waves. 00:05:05.70\00:05:07.24 They are waves 'cause today 00:05:07.27\00:05:08.60 we have the communication, right? 00:05:08.64\00:05:10.67 "Christ has come! Christ has come! 00:05:10.71\00:05:12.41 The people prostate themselves in adoration before him, 00:05:12.44\00:05:15.81 while he lifts up his hands 00:05:15.84\00:05:17.41 and pronounces a blessing upon them, 00:05:17.45\00:05:20.62 as Christ blessed His disciples when He was upon the earth." 00:05:20.65\00:05:24.35 The voice, "His voice is soft and subdued, 00:05:24.39\00:05:27.02 yet full of melody. 00:05:27.06\00:05:28.39 In gentle, compassionate tones 00:05:28.42\00:05:30.36 he presents some of the same gracious, 00:05:30.39\00:05:33.19 heavenly truths which the Savior uttered, 00:05:33.23\00:05:35.96 he heals the diseases of the people, 00:05:36.00\00:05:38.27 and then he assumes character of Christ, 00:05:38.30\00:05:41.90 and then, in his assumed character of Christ, 00:05:41.94\00:05:44.54 he claims to have changed the Sabbath to Sunday, 00:05:44.57\00:05:47.01 and commands all to hallow that day." 00:05:47.04\00:05:49.38 And so that's from The Great Controversy page 624. 00:05:49.41\00:05:54.12 And the Bible also has this warning. 00:05:54.15\00:05:58.39 And it says in Matthew 5:4, 00:05:58.42\00:06:01.42 "For many shall come in my name saying, 00:06:01.46\00:06:03.02 I am Christ and shall deceive many. 00:06:03.06\00:06:06.59 For there shall arise false Christs, 00:06:06.63\00:06:08.33 and false prophets..." 00:06:08.36\00:06:09.70 This is continuing on in Matthew 24:24. 00:06:09.73\00:06:12.50 "For there shall arise false Christs, 00:06:12.53\00:06:14.34 and false prophets 00:06:14.37\00:06:15.70 and shall show great signs, great signs and wonders, 00:06:15.74\00:06:19.34 in so much that, if it were possible, 00:06:19.37\00:06:22.14 they would deceive the very elect." 00:06:22.18\00:06:24.81 To reiterate that statement from Great Controversy, 00:06:24.85\00:06:28.55 fearful sights of a supernatural nature 00:06:28.58\00:06:31.52 will soon, soon be revealed in the heavens, 00:06:31.55\00:06:35.59 and the same thing here, if it were possible, 00:06:35.62\00:06:38.59 they should show great signs and wonders so much, 00:06:38.63\00:06:40.66 if it were possible they should deceive the very elect. 00:06:40.70\00:06:45.23 As the crowning achievement, 00:06:45.27\00:06:49.87 act in the great drama of deception, 00:06:49.90\00:06:52.07 Satan himself will personate Christ. 00:06:52.11\00:06:54.98 Now the great deceiver will make it appear 00:06:55.01\00:06:56.88 that Christ is coming in different parts of the earth. 00:06:56.91\00:06:59.68 Satan will manifest himself among man 00:06:59.71\00:07:02.52 as a majestic being of dazzling brightness 00:07:02.55\00:07:05.69 resembling the description of the Son of God 00:07:05.72\00:07:09.32 given in John, the Revelator. 00:07:09.36\00:07:10.89 "The glory that surrounds him is unsurpassed by anything 00:07:10.93\00:07:14.36 that mortal eyes have seen or yet beheld. 00:07:14.40\00:07:17.03 The shout of triumph rings upon the air, Christ has come! 00:07:17.07\00:07:20.47 Christ has come!" 00:07:20.50\00:07:22.47 Well there is a telescope 00:07:22.50\00:07:24.47 that kind of fits in with these prophecies, 00:07:24.51\00:07:28.88 and it's in Mount Graham, Arizona. 00:07:28.91\00:07:31.61 And it's the biggest infrared telescope on planet earth. 00:07:31.65\00:07:34.92 Now an infrared can see warm bodies coming, okay? 00:07:34.95\00:07:38.25 Kodak doesn't, 00:07:38.29\00:07:39.62 I mean the Hubble has Kodak photo type photographs, 00:07:39.65\00:07:43.09 does not get the images like you 00:07:43.12\00:07:47.00 would get with, with infrared. 00:07:47.03\00:07:50.03 And this is a binocular telescope. 00:07:50.07\00:07:51.70 It's the world's biggest binocular telescope 00:07:51.73\00:07:54.24 on Mount Graham, Arizona, 00:07:54.27\00:07:56.40 and it has the name of it, 00:07:56.44\00:07:59.41 is created by an acronym 00:07:59.44\00:08:03.04 of the instruments on the telescope. 00:08:03.08\00:08:05.61 But its name is the Lucifer Telescope 00:08:05.65\00:08:07.78 and that happens to be an acronym 00:08:07.82\00:08:09.62 for the Large Binocular Infrared Telescope 00:08:09.65\00:08:12.39 and so forth. 00:08:12.42\00:08:13.76 I'd like to show you that picture now 00:08:13.79\00:08:15.59 and because it is huge 00:08:15.62\00:08:17.03 and you'll see it as the little man standing there, 00:08:17.06\00:08:20.26 showing you the size of this thing 00:08:20.30\00:08:22.06 and it is, it is huge, the biggest one on earth. 00:08:22.10\00:08:25.97 We are told that they expect to find aliens 00:08:26.00\00:08:30.61 with this infrared telescope. 00:08:30.64\00:08:33.38 They say that, you know, 00:08:33.41\00:08:38.68 mortals living here on earth were sinners, you know, 00:08:38.71\00:08:41.48 and we don't really understand the Bible like we should 00:08:41.52\00:08:44.49 and they're saying, if we could see alien 00:08:44.52\00:08:45.95 and this is what the, this is what they're saying. 00:08:45.99\00:08:47.72 The people, it's run by the Vatican by the way. 00:08:47.76\00:08:50.43 And if you read the books and if you do the research, 00:08:50.46\00:08:52.46 you'll discover that it's said, 00:08:52.49\00:08:55.76 that they will be able to find aliens out there 00:08:55.80\00:08:58.03 with this infrared telescope and maybe they could, you know, 00:08:58.07\00:09:00.94 pick them up before we can pick them up with the Hubble 00:09:00.97\00:09:03.84 because they are warm objects and not visible light objects. 00:09:03.87\00:09:07.51 And so they say that these, 00:09:07.54\00:09:10.15 when we discover these aliens that they're, you know, 00:09:10.18\00:09:12.65 they're going to be closer to God 00:09:12.68\00:09:14.42 because we're sinful, we're on this world, 00:09:14.45\00:09:15.78 we're sinful 00:09:15.82\00:09:17.15 and these aliens are gonna understand 00:09:17.19\00:09:18.52 the Bible better there, 00:09:18.55\00:09:19.92 they're going to be able what they say is 00:09:19.95\00:09:21.56 they're going to be able to reveal to us 00:09:21.59\00:09:23.93 better things about the scriptures 00:09:23.96\00:09:25.49 than we can understand and I've read, it says, 00:09:25.53\00:09:29.33 that we need to listen to them, and they say those, 00:09:29.36\00:09:32.13 if you don't listen to them, you'll be considered a heretic 00:09:32.17\00:09:34.97 because we're just mortal sinners, you see, 00:09:35.00\00:09:36.81 and these, these aliens will be closer to God. 00:09:36.84\00:09:41.58 And so you put that together with the Scriptures 00:09:41.61\00:09:43.61 that we've read and the references we have read 00:09:43.65\00:09:48.58 in The Great Controversy 00:09:48.62\00:09:50.12 and I just think while fearful 00:09:50.15\00:09:52.75 sights of a supernatural nature 00:09:52.79\00:09:55.16 will soon be revealed in the heavens. 00:09:55.19\00:09:59.36 Folks, we are at the end. 00:09:59.39\00:10:02.40 I think we're at the end of time. 00:10:02.43\00:10:05.03 And we see all around us every day. 00:10:05.07\00:10:09.60 Every day it seems like, 00:10:09.64\00:10:12.04 we're closer to the Second Coming of Christ, 00:10:12.07\00:10:16.34 and you know things just seem to be getting worse. 00:10:16.38\00:10:19.08 I think how can anything get worse it seems like every day. 00:10:19.11\00:10:22.82 It gets worse, yes, Jesus is coming soon. 00:10:22.85\00:10:25.62 I really believe that 00:10:25.65\00:10:27.62 and, but our topic today goes right along with this 00:10:27.66\00:10:31.43 and this is Life on Other Planets 00:10:31.46\00:10:35.06 but first, we have SETI, 00:10:35.10\00:10:37.40 Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence, 00:10:37.43\00:10:40.37 which is an organization designed. 00:10:40.40\00:10:42.34 They're looking for life, can we get signals from space, 00:10:42.37\00:10:46.61 showing us that there is life out there. 00:10:46.64\00:10:49.34 And this SETI program, 00:10:49.38\00:10:51.58 they have been searching for nine years, 00:10:51.61\00:10:53.11 they've been studying 800 stars 00:10:53.15\00:10:55.42 and in like two billion channels a day, 00:10:55.45\00:10:58.32 they have, they're scanning these stars with scanners, 00:10:58.35\00:11:02.42 they kept looking for signals of intelligent life. 00:11:02.46\00:11:06.09 Now they got a di-do-di-dot-dot dot-dit-dit-dit 00:11:06.13\00:11:09.56 that would indicate intelligence out there. 00:11:09.60\00:11:12.07 Now that's Morse code. 00:11:12.10\00:11:13.44 That happens to be the Morse code for SOS. 00:11:13.47\00:11:17.51 But we have a new program out right now it's called 00:11:17.54\00:11:19.61 the Breakthrough Listen program, 00:11:19.64\00:11:21.14 it's a 10 year initiative with a 100 million in funding. 00:11:21.18\00:11:27.15 Beginning in July of 2015 is when it began 00:11:27.18\00:11:29.62 and actively searching 00:11:29.65\00:11:30.99 for intelligent extraterrestrial communications 00:11:31.02\00:11:33.42 in the universe. 00:11:33.46\00:11:36.49 And using the resources that had not previously been 00:11:36.52\00:11:40.20 extensively used for this purpose, 00:11:40.23\00:11:42.06 it has been described as the most comprehensive search 00:11:42.10\00:11:45.27 for alien life communicated, communication to date. 00:11:45.30\00:11:48.94 And so far we have not found anything. 00:11:48.97\00:11:51.41 And there is a famous guy with a name of Drake, 00:11:51.44\00:11:53.54 and he came up with an equation for you to, 00:11:53.58\00:11:56.61 it's a little fun thing to go through exercise, 00:11:56.64\00:11:58.85 to go through it to see, 00:11:58.88\00:12:00.22 what are the chances of life on earth? 00:12:00.25\00:12:01.88 And he has this Drake Equation which, you know, 00:12:01.92\00:12:04.99 one of the numbers you put into the number of galaxies, 00:12:05.02\00:12:08.89 stars in the Milky Way galaxy, 00:12:08.92\00:12:10.63 the number of planets you think might be in there, 00:12:10.66\00:12:13.09 the number of planets capable of supporting life 00:12:13.13\00:12:15.70 and the number of planets where life evolves 00:12:15.73\00:12:21.10 and a fraction where it evolves, 00:12:21.14\00:12:24.11 that could come up with intelligent life 00:12:24.14\00:12:26.34 and then another, 00:12:26.37\00:12:29.24 one of your entries here would be, 00:12:29.28\00:12:30.61 are they able to communicate and so forth. 00:12:30.65\00:12:32.58 And we actually have people in our building 00:12:32.61\00:12:34.55 where I rent that are, they go home at night 00:12:34.58\00:12:38.59 and they turn their computers on 00:12:38.62\00:12:39.95 and their computers pour through this data 00:12:39.99\00:12:41.92 because there's so much data when you listen to, 00:12:41.96\00:12:44.33 you know, like two billion channels a day. 00:12:44.36\00:12:47.86 You need a lot of computers to sort through this 00:12:47.90\00:12:49.83 and so far they haven't found any intelligent life out there. 00:12:49.86\00:12:55.30 And we've discovered well over 00:12:55.34\00:12:56.91 3,000 planets around other stars, 00:12:56.94\00:12:59.67 but you know, if they would take your DNA, 00:12:59.71\00:13:03.68 and take it out to Alpha Centauri, 00:13:03.71\00:13:05.41 the closest star any star out there, 00:13:05.45\00:13:07.88 and modulate a laser beam with your DNA 00:13:07.92\00:13:10.59 and send it back here, 00:13:10.62\00:13:12.09 tomorrow morning world headlines, 00:13:12.12\00:13:14.32 you know, we've discovered life in space 00:13:14.36\00:13:16.89 because what they're looking for is in your DNA. 00:13:16.93\00:13:21.36 It's coded information and it will show intelligence 00:13:21.40\00:13:25.40 or maybe if they just turned those telescopes around 00:13:25.43\00:13:27.80 point them at their heads, they might, you know, 00:13:27.84\00:13:29.87 find intelligence life on, may be questionable. 00:13:29.90\00:13:34.61 But what does the Bible have to say 00:13:34.64\00:13:35.98 about life on other planets? 00:13:36.01\00:13:37.65 Most Christians think there is no life, 00:13:37.68\00:13:40.88 that we are the only life in the universe, 00:13:40.92\00:13:42.68 we're the only planet in the universe. 00:13:42.72\00:13:45.65 Well, there are some really good scriptures that I think 00:13:45.69\00:13:48.22 we can make a case 00:13:48.26\00:13:49.59 that there are other inhabited planets out there. 00:13:49.62\00:13:52.89 And we need to be clear this is the only place there's sin 00:13:52.93\00:13:55.50 and if they're inhabited, they're not coming here, 00:13:55.53\00:13:57.90 if God has got his elect on other planets 00:13:57.93\00:14:03.44 and we're gonna show you some scripture for that. 00:14:03.47\00:14:05.51 If he's got his elect on other planets, 00:14:05.54\00:14:06.91 ain't there are coming here, 00:14:06.94\00:14:08.28 you know, they're not talking to us. 00:14:08.31\00:14:09.64 They don't need radio if they 00:14:09.68\00:14:11.98 got these intelligence of a angel, 00:14:12.01\00:14:16.28 and, so let's look at some scripture Nehemiah 9:6 00:14:16.32\00:14:20.82 says that he has made the heavens 00:14:20.86\00:14:22.66 with all their hosts. 00:14:22.69\00:14:24.76 Now that could be stars, 00:14:24.79\00:14:26.13 the hosts of heaven, that be star, 00:14:26.16\00:14:27.76 but what is the rest of the verse say, 00:14:27.80\00:14:30.17 "The host of heaven worship Him." 00:14:30.20\00:14:32.70 And I wouldn't think the stars 00:14:32.73\00:14:34.60 would necessarily be worshipping him, 00:14:34.64\00:14:36.57 but that's Nehemiah 9:6, that, 00:14:36.60\00:14:38.71 "He has made the heavens with all their hosts 00:14:38.74\00:14:40.74 and the heaven of heavens 00:14:40.78\00:14:42.24 and the hosts of heaven worship Him." 00:14:42.28\00:14:44.48 We can look at Hebrews, you know, 00:14:44.51\00:14:46.08 Hebrews 1:2 and 3, 00:14:46.11\00:14:48.58 and it's talking about Jesus, it said, 00:14:48.62\00:14:50.15 "He made the universe of worlds." 00:14:50.19\00:14:53.96 And if we go to, you know, Isaiah 45:18, it says that, 00:14:53.99\00:14:59.63 "He made the, He did not create the earth in vain, 00:14:59.66\00:15:03.77 He created it to be inhabited." 00:15:03.80\00:15:06.63 Well what about these 3,000 planets 00:15:06.67\00:15:08.57 and we probably have billions of planets out there, 00:15:08.60\00:15:11.57 were they created in vain 00:15:11.61\00:15:12.94 or were they created to be inhabited? 00:15:12.97\00:15:14.31 That's kind of an interesting scripture. 00:15:14.34\00:15:15.84 But Hebrews 11:3 says, 00:15:15.88\00:15:19.98 "Through faith, we understand that the worlds were framed 00:15:20.02\00:15:22.65 by the word of God." 00:15:22.68\00:15:25.35 So here is another scripture, Hebrews 1:2 and 3, 00:15:25.39\00:15:30.46 Hebrews 11 talks about that. 00:15:30.49\00:15:32.89 We could look at Matthew 24:31, 00:15:32.93\00:15:34.83 this is an interesting scripture. 00:15:34.86\00:15:36.20 It's a very end of time and the very end of time, 00:15:36.23\00:15:39.50 what does Jesus do? 00:15:39.53\00:15:40.87 "He sends his angels with a great shout of a trumpet 00:15:40.90\00:15:44.41 and they shall gather together his elect," okay? 00:15:44.44\00:15:47.94 "From the four winds 00:15:47.98\00:15:49.31 and from one end of heaven to the other." 00:15:49.34\00:15:51.31 So God's talking about 00:15:51.35\00:15:52.68 gathering His elect from the earth, 00:15:52.71\00:15:55.25 from the four winds that's talking about the earth. 00:15:55.28\00:15:57.42 And from one, God has elect apparently 00:15:57.45\00:16:00.42 from one end of heaven to the other. 00:16:00.46\00:16:02.89 The Bible says we're a spectacle of the angels. 00:16:02.92\00:16:06.23 Now that was Matthew 24:31, 00:16:06.26\00:16:07.83 and we're gonna look at Mark 13 and it says 00:16:07.86\00:16:10.77 almost the same thing, again the very end of time. 00:16:10.80\00:16:13.30 Jesus, it says, and, 00:16:13.34\00:16:16.47 "Then shall you see the Son of Man 00:16:16.50\00:16:17.87 coming in the clouds 00:16:17.91\00:16:19.24 with power and great glory 00:16:19.27\00:16:20.74 and He shall send His angels 00:16:20.78\00:16:22.88 and shall gather together His elect from the four winds 00:16:22.91\00:16:26.15 and from the outermost part of earth 00:16:26.18\00:16:28.85 to the outermost part of heaven." 00:16:28.88\00:16:31.05 That sounds pretty inclusive, doesn't it? 00:16:31.09\00:16:32.82 The uttermost part of earth, His elect, 00:16:32.85\00:16:34.72 He's talking about His elect, the Bible seems, 00:16:34.76\00:16:36.99 you know, to talk about angels, 00:16:37.03\00:16:38.39 it talks about heavenly host, it talks about elects, 00:16:38.43\00:16:41.06 it talks about the Sons of God. 00:16:41.10\00:16:42.90 And that was in Mark 13: 26 and 27. 00:16:42.93\00:16:46.30 So we're building a case here that seems to indicate 00:16:46.33\00:16:49.67 that there's other life that is out there in space. 00:16:49.70\00:16:54.24 We can look at Luke 2:13, 00:16:54.28\00:16:57.61 as a Christmas story, and it says, 00:16:57.65\00:16:59.65 "And suddenly there was with the angel, 00:16:59.68\00:17:02.72 a multitude of Heavenly Host praising God." 00:17:02.75\00:17:06.62 That doesn't specify well, that may be angels, 00:17:06.65\00:17:08.69 it may be not angels. 00:17:08.72\00:17:10.06 We can look at Job 1:6. 00:17:10.09\00:17:12.03 And this was a space event, 00:17:12.06\00:17:13.50 this was a meeting outside of space, 00:17:13.53\00:17:15.40 outside of the earth away from the earth 00:17:15.43\00:17:17.37 and apparently is a big convocation 00:17:17.40\00:17:18.93 that happens on a regular basis. 00:17:18.97\00:17:21.14 And I can imagine that God's looking around 00:17:21.17\00:17:24.04 and everybody that's gathered there and He go, 00:17:24.07\00:17:25.77 "Oh, wait a minute! 00:17:25.81\00:17:27.14 Who are you and where are you from? 00:17:27.18\00:17:29.28 Identify yourself." And what's the response? 00:17:29.31\00:17:33.05 Satan says, "I'm Satan and I'm from earth, 00:17:33.08\00:17:36.65 going to and fro in the earth." 00:17:36.69\00:17:38.75 And this was a day when the Sons of God 00:17:38.79\00:17:41.42 came to present themselves before the Lord. 00:17:41.46\00:17:44.13 And in Job 2, it says the same thing, 00:17:44.16\00:17:46.23 again there was another day, 00:17:46.26\00:17:48.03 so this sounds like this is an event 00:17:48.06\00:17:50.50 that happens fairly regularly, 00:17:50.53\00:17:52.33 you know, maybe, we can speculate 00:17:52.37\00:17:55.10 every year, or six months, or something like this. 00:17:55.14\00:17:57.87 And so there was another day when the Sons of God 00:17:57.91\00:18:00.01 came to present themselves before the Lord, 00:18:00.04\00:18:01.91 Satan came also as a representative of earth. 00:18:01.94\00:18:05.21 He was standing, I think, if Adam had been alive, 00:18:05.25\00:18:08.12 Adam would have been there. 00:18:08.15\00:18:10.55 But Satan was, you know, the Bible tells us 00:18:10.59\00:18:12.72 he's the god of this world, 00:18:12.75\00:18:14.26 but you know that's not even capitalized, 00:18:14.29\00:18:16.22 he's not a God. 00:18:16.26\00:18:18.06 But he is the representative of this world, 00:18:18.09\00:18:20.13 and so he had gone to that meeting. 00:18:20.16\00:18:22.30 Now is a day when the Sons of God 00:18:22.33\00:18:24.03 came to represent themselves before the Lord. 00:18:24.07\00:18:26.23 There is a sense in which Adam was the Son of God 00:18:26.27\00:18:28.97 that you and I are not. 00:18:29.00\00:18:30.34 Now we can become the Sons of God. 00:18:30.37\00:18:32.01 The Bible tells us, now are we the Sons of God, 00:18:32.04\00:18:34.54 but there is a sense in which Adam was the Son of God 00:18:34.58\00:18:37.88 that you and I are not. 00:18:37.91\00:18:39.25 If you go through the genealogies of Christ, 00:18:39.28\00:18:41.42 you go back all the way back to Seth 00:18:41.45\00:18:43.59 and the Enoch and there's Adam which was the Son of God. 00:18:43.62\00:18:48.59 So there's a sense in which Adam 00:18:48.62\00:18:51.99 was the Son of God like you and I are not. 00:18:52.03\00:18:54.16 Could it be the day when the Sons of God apparently, 00:18:54.20\00:18:57.73 you know, Satan was the only one from earth. 00:18:57.77\00:19:00.27 Could it be that these Sons of God were Adams 00:19:00.30\00:19:03.20 from all other worlds out there? 00:19:03.24\00:19:05.61 In Luke 2:13, okay we already read that one. 00:19:11.55\00:19:14.42 Let's go on to the next one. 00:19:14.45\00:19:16.22 Revelation 12:12. 00:19:16.25\00:19:18.89 It kinds of deals with this because Revelation 12, 00:19:18.92\00:19:20.59 "Rejoice you heavens, 00:19:20.62\00:19:22.12 all you heavens rejoice out there." 00:19:22.16\00:19:23.93 Why? 00:19:23.96\00:19:25.29 Because Satan is cast out of heaven 00:19:25.33\00:19:27.26 and wander the earth because he's cast down to the earth. 00:19:27.30\00:19:31.37 We need to be clear, this is the only place 00:19:31.40\00:19:33.94 that there is sin 00:19:33.97\00:19:36.40 because the Bible says 00:19:36.44\00:19:37.77 and it's not going to happen again. 00:19:37.81\00:19:39.67 In Nahum 1:9, it says, 00:19:39.71\00:19:41.11 "Affliction shall not rise the second time." 00:19:41.14\00:19:43.98 The second, now that tells us, 00:19:44.01\00:19:45.35 this is the first time, doesn't it? 00:19:45.38\00:19:48.68 And so if God's got creatures out there, 00:19:48.72\00:19:50.69 they're not coming here, they're not coming, 00:19:50.72\00:19:52.59 they're not getting close to this contaminated world, 00:19:52.62\00:19:56.02 but they are able I believe to watch, 00:19:56.06\00:19:58.86 and we need to be clear. 00:19:58.89\00:20:00.50 This is the only place that there is sin. 00:20:00.53\00:20:03.87 In 1 Corinthians 4:9, it says, 00:20:03.90\00:20:05.70 "For we are made a spectacle to the angels 00:20:05.73\00:20:09.17 unto the world 00:20:09.20\00:20:10.54 and we are made spectacles to the worlds, 00:20:10.57\00:20:13.11 and to angels and to men." 00:20:13.14\00:20:17.08 So I believe there are inhabited worlds out there 00:20:17.11\00:20:22.08 that God has created. 00:20:22.12\00:20:24.32 You know, Isaiah 45:18 says, 00:20:24.35\00:20:26.35 "He made this earth to be inhabited. 00:20:26.39\00:20:28.42 He did not created in vain." 00:20:28.46\00:20:30.23 What about all these other planets 00:20:30.26\00:20:31.63 we're discovering out there? 00:20:31.66\00:20:32.99 All these other stars, 00:20:33.03\00:20:34.36 there're 100 billion in the Milky Way galaxy, 00:20:34.40\00:20:36.43 and a 100 billion galaxies. 00:20:36.46\00:20:39.53 We need to be clear, 00:20:39.57\00:20:40.90 this is the only place there's sin. 00:20:40.94\00:20:43.47 And but I think the Bible if we look at scripture. 00:20:43.51\00:20:47.58 There's evidence that God has other worlds out there 00:20:47.61\00:20:51.61 that are inhabited. 00:20:51.65\00:20:54.92 I'd like to share with you some prophecies of the Messiah. 00:20:54.95\00:20:59.62 And it is amazing when you look at the prophecy of the Messiah, 00:20:59.65\00:21:02.99 we have hundreds of prophecies about the Messiah. 00:21:03.02\00:21:06.39 And I was in, 00:21:06.43\00:21:08.96 attending a convention in Tucson, 00:21:09.00\00:21:12.40 and my next door neighbor goes to Tucson for a winter, 00:21:12.43\00:21:16.07 he and his wife go down there in winter 00:21:16.10\00:21:17.51 because they are, he's same age as I am. 00:21:17.54\00:21:20.01 And, but he is an atheist, a geologist. 00:21:20.04\00:21:24.48 And for years he would, he and his wife would, 00:21:24.51\00:21:28.52 kind of make fun of the Bible, make fun of the dietary laws, 00:21:28.55\00:21:33.36 the Leviticus, 00:21:33.39\00:21:34.72 now he's suffering from that right now 00:21:34.76\00:21:38.23 because he told me, he said, 00:21:38.26\00:21:40.36 he didn't know if he would see his next birthday 00:21:40.40\00:21:43.03 because his health isn't very good. 00:21:43.06\00:21:45.20 And, you know, that dietary laws of Leviticus 00:21:45.23\00:21:48.80 help you to live longer and live better 00:21:48.84\00:21:51.77 and I was in, I was in Tucson a year ago 00:21:51.81\00:21:55.24 and I had emailed him 00:21:55.28\00:21:56.61 and I said maybe we can get together 00:21:56.64\00:21:57.98 when you're down here for this convention. 00:21:58.01\00:21:59.81 And I emailed him and I tried to call him, 00:21:59.85\00:22:01.52 there was no answer and then I emailed him. 00:22:01.55\00:22:04.79 And I emailed him and I said, 00:22:04.82\00:22:08.22 "You know, this telescope convention," 00:22:08.26\00:22:11.29 I said, "if you and Marine would like to come, 00:22:11.33\00:22:13.70 I'll pay for your ticket, 00:22:13.73\00:22:15.36 and if you want be there on Sunday 00:22:15.40\00:22:17.57 and see all these telescopes, you know, 00:22:17.60\00:22:19.53 I'll pay for your ticket." 00:22:19.57\00:22:20.90 Well, he mailed me back and he said, I said, 00:22:20.94\00:22:23.44 "Oh, there's only one problem, 00:22:23.47\00:22:24.81 I know you're an atheist and this is on Church Street, 00:22:24.84\00:22:27.91 so that might be a problem." 00:22:27.94\00:22:29.28 And he emailed me back, he says, 00:22:29.31\00:22:30.65 "No, I'm not atheist, I'm an agnostic." 00:22:30.68\00:22:33.42 And I emailed him back I said, 00:22:33.45\00:22:34.78 "Well that's great because there's hope for an agnostic." 00:22:34.82\00:22:37.52 And so he emailed me back and said, 00:22:37.55\00:22:39.42 is there hope for the Christian? 00:22:39.45\00:22:41.39 And I said, "You know, 00:22:41.42\00:22:43.53 hope is when you buy the lottery ticket. 00:22:43.56\00:22:45.69 We have a more sure word of prophecy." 00:22:45.73\00:22:48.73 This was my response, you know, 00:22:48.76\00:22:51.63 I am more sure of the Bible 00:22:51.67\00:22:53.00 than I am as sure as I am in my name. 00:22:53.03\00:22:56.10 You know, we have a more sure, it's not hope, 00:22:56.14\00:22:58.14 it's whole much more than hope. 00:22:58.17\00:22:59.84 And when we look at the prophecy of the Messiah, 00:22:59.87\00:23:02.28 some people, mathematicians, 00:23:02.31\00:23:03.65 statisticians have worked on this, 00:23:03.68\00:23:05.81 and so for instance, 00:23:05.85\00:23:08.42 they say that Christ, Micah 5:2, 00:23:08.45\00:23:10.62 was born in Bethlehem 00:23:10.65\00:23:12.62 and they put the chances of any person on earth 00:23:12.65\00:23:15.09 fulfilling that prophecy 1 in 200,000. 00:23:15.12\00:23:18.73 He ended on a donkey, they put that at 1 in 100,000 00:23:18.76\00:23:22.50 and the fact he was sold for 30 pieces of silver 00:23:22.53\00:23:25.57 that was placed at 1 in 100,000. 00:23:25.60\00:23:28.04 I think it was Chuck Missler that worked this out 00:23:28.07\00:23:30.97 with some probability, mathematicians. 00:23:31.01\00:23:35.51 And what's interesting is that when you do this, 00:23:35.54\00:23:37.45 you have to multiply each product with the next one. 00:23:37.48\00:23:40.55 And as Chuck Missler use this illustration, he said, 00:23:40.58\00:23:42.88 "When people are getting on the airplane in the '70s, 00:23:42.92\00:23:45.22 we had bombings, one guy said to his friend, 00:23:45.25\00:23:47.36 he said, you know, 00:23:47.39\00:23:48.72 I've calculated the chance of bomb being on this plane 00:23:48.76\00:23:51.06 are 1 in a 1000. 00:23:51.09\00:23:53.29 And the other guy go, "Wow! Wait a minute. 00:23:53.33\00:23:54.86 That's a kind of scary. 00:23:54.90\00:23:56.30 And he said, "No, the chances of two bombs 00:23:56.33\00:23:59.57 being on the same plane are one in a million. 00:23:59.60\00:24:02.07 So I carry my own bomb." 00:24:02.10\00:24:04.61 Now we laugh at that, but it illustrates 00:24:04.64\00:24:06.47 when you have multiple prophecies 00:24:06.51\00:24:07.94 that have to be fulfilled. 00:24:07.98\00:24:09.38 We're looking at the first eight 00:24:09.41\00:24:11.15 and the, he was sold for thirty pieces, 00:24:11.18\00:24:13.88 the transaction took place in the temple, 00:24:13.92\00:24:17.75 one in 100,000, 00:24:17.79\00:24:19.42 at the time his birth was predicted, 00:24:19.45\00:24:22.22 he was innocent, he did not defend himself, 00:24:22.26\00:24:24.93 he was on death row. 00:24:24.96\00:24:26.63 What are the chances? 00:24:26.66\00:24:28.00 Anybody on death row today 00:24:28.03\00:24:29.36 gets buried in Bill Gates' mausoleum, 00:24:29.40\00:24:31.83 he was on death row. 00:24:31.87\00:24:33.20 He was buried with the rich. 00:24:33.23\00:24:35.17 He was crucified that was predicted 00:24:35.20\00:24:37.71 and that they have a 10,000 00:24:37.74\00:24:39.71 and yet crucifixion I understand 00:24:39.74\00:24:41.38 was not even practice when the prophecy was made. 00:24:41.41\00:24:44.55 And they pulled out his hair, spat in his face. 00:24:44.58\00:24:48.38 When we get down, okay, when we get down to crucified, 00:24:48.42\00:24:50.89 that is the first eight prophecies. 00:24:50.92\00:24:52.89 When you multiply that out, that's 10 to the 17th power. 00:24:52.92\00:24:56.69 The chances of any person on earth 00:24:56.73\00:24:58.53 fulfilling those eight prophecies 00:24:58.56\00:25:00.60 are the same as you filling the state of Texas 00:25:00.63\00:25:03.06 with silver dollars two feet high. 00:25:03.10\00:25:05.53 The chance of you walking through that state blindfold 00:25:05.57\00:25:08.04 and finding that silver dollar 00:25:08.07\00:25:10.01 is the same chances of any person born on earth 00:25:10.04\00:25:13.04 fulfilling those first eight prophecies. 00:25:13.07\00:25:15.38 But did you know what science says it could happen. 00:25:15.41\00:25:18.78 They say the chance is it still could happen, 00:25:18.81\00:25:20.48 there still is a possibility, 00:25:20.52\00:25:22.18 but the number that scientists 00:25:22.22\00:25:23.65 has come up with is 10 to the 50th. 00:25:23.69\00:25:25.85 If you get 10 to the 50th, 50 zeros, they say, 00:25:25.89\00:25:30.76 "Okay, we'll buy it." 00:25:30.79\00:25:32.69 It'll never happen. Well, we're 10 to the 17th. 00:25:32.73\00:25:36.13 If we take eight more prophecies 00:25:36.16\00:25:37.73 and we have I'm told sometimes, 00:25:37.77\00:25:39.60 200 to 300 prophecies about Christ 00:25:39.63\00:25:42.84 that Christ fulfilled the chances 00:25:42.87\00:25:45.07 of any person fulfilling that. 00:25:45.11\00:25:46.44 If we go to 16 prophecies, 00:25:46.47\00:25:49.68 the chances of any person fulfilling, 00:25:49.71\00:25:52.15 we are now at 10 to the 45th power. 00:25:52.18\00:25:55.28 When we get to 10 to the 50th 00:25:55.32\00:25:57.32 and that's only 16 prophecies, we get 10 to the 50th. 00:25:57.35\00:26:01.56 You know, the scientific mind would buy this. 00:26:01.59\00:26:03.32 I say, if you have a scientific mind, 00:26:03.36\00:26:05.39 if you will accept the rules that the scientists laid down, 00:26:05.43\00:26:08.26 10 to the 17th can happen, but 10 to the 50th, 00:26:08.30\00:26:10.93 they say okay, it's impossible. 00:26:10.97\00:26:12.93 And 10 to the 50th, it would maybe be like 00:26:12.97\00:26:14.84 covering the whole earth with, you know, 00:26:14.87\00:26:17.41 I don't know how thick it would be, 00:26:17.44\00:26:18.77 but covering the whole earth with silver dollars. 00:26:18.81\00:26:21.11 And so when my friend said, 00:26:21.14\00:26:22.48 "Is there hope for the believer?" 00:26:22.51\00:26:25.01 I have to say, it's more than hope. 00:26:25.05\00:26:28.38 Hope is when you buy the lottery ticket. 00:26:28.42\00:26:30.19 You hope you're going to win, 00:26:30.22\00:26:31.85 but we have a more sure word of prophecy. 00:26:31.89\00:26:34.22 We look at the prophecies, you know, 00:26:34.26\00:26:36.09 that we have in the Bible. 00:26:36.12\00:26:38.39 The prophecies of Daniel, the prophecies that, 00:26:38.43\00:26:41.66 you know, we see God knew ahead of a time 00:26:41.70\00:26:44.77 what was going to happen, and it's just not possible for 00:26:44.80\00:26:49.87 anybody on planet earth 00:26:49.90\00:26:51.27 to fulfill the prophecies of the Messiah. 00:26:51.31\00:26:53.38 So we have a more sure word and, folks, 00:26:53.41\00:26:56.04 I hope you have that same confidence. 00:26:56.08\00:26:58.88 You know, the Bible tells us that you can seek Him 00:26:58.91\00:27:02.38 and find Him if you search for Him 00:27:02.42\00:27:03.75 with all your heart. 00:27:03.79\00:27:05.12 This world folks is, is running down, 00:27:05.15\00:27:06.72 wearing out, it's deteriorating, 00:27:06.76\00:27:08.26 it's getting worse and worse and worse. 00:27:08.29\00:27:10.33 And we need to trust in the Lord. 00:27:10.36\00:27:12.36 We need to trust in Him 00:27:12.39\00:27:13.90 because He's coming back very soon 00:27:13.93\00:27:16.43 and once again, 00:27:16.46\00:27:18.70 these half hours they go so fast on 3ABN, 00:27:18.73\00:27:21.84 but I enjoy sharing the Heavens, 00:27:21.87\00:27:23.37 you probably figured that out by now. 00:27:23.41\00:27:25.64 But I want to encourage you to seek the Lord 00:27:25.67\00:27:28.84 while He may be found. 00:27:28.88\00:27:30.21 Call upon Him while He is near 00:27:30.25\00:27:32.35 and we'll be preparing the next program here on 3ABN. 00:27:32.38\00:27:35.25 We want to invite you to watch us 00:27:35.28\00:27:37.55 on Heavens Declare. 00:27:37.59\00:27:38.92 Thank you very much. 00:27:38.95\00:27:40.29
