Happy Sabbath, everyone.
00:00:13.17\00:00:15.64
Welcome to Pioneer
00:00:15.68\00:00:17.01
on this bright and
sunny and warm November day.
00:00:17.05\00:00:22.15
It is good to have you
here worshiping with us.
00:00:22.18\00:00:26.02
And we thank the Lord
that He has brought us safely
00:00:26.05\00:00:29.02
through another week,
to this time of worship.
00:00:29.06\00:00:32.93
Thank you for
keeping your masks on
00:00:32.96\00:00:35.16
and for remembering to
observe physical distancing
00:00:35.20\00:00:39.30
for the safety of all of us.
00:00:39.33\00:00:42.17
Our call to worship today
00:00:42.20\00:00:43.81
comes from Psalm 118:19-21,
00:00:43.84\00:00:50.75
and it says, "Open for me
the gates of the righteous,
00:00:50.78\00:00:56.15
I will enter in and
give thanks to the Lord.
00:00:56.18\00:01:00.46
This is the gate of the Lord
00:01:00.49\00:01:03.32
through which the
righteous may enter.
00:01:03.36\00:01:07.10
I will give you thanks,
oh, Lord, for You answered me,
00:01:07.13\00:01:11.13
You have become my salvation."
00:01:11.17\00:01:15.00
Let us pray.
00:01:15.04\00:01:18.11
Spirit of the Living
God, fall afresh on us today.
00:01:18.14\00:01:25.05
Break us, make us, melt us,
00:01:25.08\00:01:30.05
mold us, fill us
full of yourself.
00:01:30.09\00:01:36.06
Breathe on us breath of God.
00:01:36.09\00:01:40.70
Fill us with life anew
00:01:40.73\00:01:44.47
that we may love
the things You love
00:01:44.50\00:01:48.34
and do the things You do.
00:01:48.37\00:01:51.14
And so Prince of
Peace, calm our fears,
00:01:51.17\00:01:54.68
still our hearts and teach us
00:01:54.71\00:01:57.08
how to worship you
in spirit and in truth.
00:01:57.11\00:02:01.38
Amen.
00:02:01.42\00:02:02.75
You Lord, You are worthy

00:02:38.62\00:02:40.96

00:06:14.97\00:06:20.74
I invite the
congregation to stand with us
00:06:30.59\00:06:32.42
this wonderful morning.
00:06:32.45\00:06:34.52
We stand and lift up our hands

For the joy of the Lord
00:06:55.71\00:06:58.81

We bow down and worship You now

How great, how awesome is He
00:07:08.49\00:07:13.50
And together we sing
00:07:13.53\00:07:20.00
Holy is the Lord God Almighty
00:07:20.04\00:07:26.84

00:08:15.72\00:08:22.46
The earth is
filled With His glory
00:08:22.50\00:08:28.80
The earth is
filled With His glory
00:08:28.84\00:08:34.64
And it's rising up all around
00:08:34.68\00:08:40.92
It's the anthem
Of the Lord's renown
00:08:40.95\00:08:47.02
And it's rising up all around
00:08:47.06\00:08:53.13
It's the anthem
Of the Lord's renown
00:08:53.16\00:08:58.13
And together we sing
00:09:01.77\00:09:08.28

All right, good
morning, church family.
00:09:56.26\00:09:57.93
I'm so excited that
you guys are all here,
00:09:57.96\00:09:59.39
you guys can see take a seat.
00:09:59.43\00:10:01.03
As we go into our last
song, it's called "Do it again."
00:10:01.06\00:10:04.97
And guys, it's
just wonderful, guys,
00:10:05.00\00:10:06.57
because we still get to
come together here at church.
00:10:06.60\00:10:09.30
Isn't that wonderful?
00:10:09.34\00:10:10.67
When we look around the world
and we see all that's going on,
00:10:10.71\00:10:13.38
all the fighting,
all the bickering,
00:10:13.41\00:10:14.81
all people going,
00:10:14.84\00:10:16.75
pushing each
other left and right,
00:10:16.78\00:10:18.15
they're arguing,
they're fighting,
00:10:18.18\00:10:19.51
the deaths, the sickness,
everything in the world,
00:10:19.55\00:10:21.58
it looks like there's no hope.
00:10:21.62\00:10:23.79
And I know there's some mornings
00:10:23.82\00:10:25.15
I get up and I'm like, I
don't want to go to class.
00:10:25.19\00:10:27.76
What's the point?
00:10:27.79\00:10:29.12
Everything's falling apart?
00:10:29.16\00:10:31.73
Why am I here?
00:10:31.76\00:10:33.33
I asked myself this
question this Thursday,
00:10:33.36\00:10:35.83
I believe it was, this Thursday,
00:10:35.86\00:10:37.20
I asked myself,
"What's the point?"
00:10:37.23\00:10:38.60
I mean, what's the point?
00:10:38.63\00:10:39.97
Everything's
falling apart around us.
00:10:40.00\00:10:42.47
Nobody can get along.
00:10:42.50\00:10:44.94
Everybody's
fighting, everybody's dying.
00:10:44.97\00:10:46.57
Everybody's getting sick.
00:10:46.61\00:10:47.94
The world is
falling apart as I know it.
00:10:47.98\00:10:51.38
And then I thought,
00:10:51.41\00:10:53.75
it's not our job
to make things better.
00:10:53.78\00:10:56.65
And oftentimes, people think
00:10:56.69\00:10:58.02
that just because
they say or do something
00:10:58.05\00:10:59.45
that's going to
make things better,
00:10:59.49\00:11:00.82
and they think that
it's all in our power.
00:11:00.86\00:11:02.89
But what we forget
is that God is the one
00:11:02.92\00:11:04.63
that controls everything.
00:11:04.66\00:11:07.03
And God is the one
that that says what happens,
00:11:07.06\00:11:09.86
it's not up to us.
00:11:09.90\00:11:12.00
All that we can do
00:11:12.03\00:11:13.50
is accept Him
and accept His will.
00:11:13.54\00:11:17.47
Because at the
end of the day, guys,
00:11:17.51\00:11:20.18
God is the one
that holds the power
00:11:20.21\00:11:21.58
and that's what
makes it so awesome.
00:11:21.61\00:11:23.71
Because we serve the God
that holds all the power.
00:11:23.75\00:11:26.92
We don't have to
worry about anything.
00:11:26.95\00:11:30.65
So I encourage you guys
as we sing this last song,
00:11:30.69\00:11:32.82
think about the
things that I've said,
00:11:32.85\00:11:35.32
because in the end
God has the control
00:11:35.36\00:11:37.09
and God knows everything.
00:11:37.13\00:11:40.66
So trust Him, don't worry.
00:11:40.70\00:11:43.13
I invite you guys
to sing our last song.
00:11:43.16\00:11:45.53
And it's called "Do it again."
00:11:45.57\00:11:46.94
Waking around these walls
00:12:10.16\00:12:16.40
I thought by now they'd fall
00:12:16.43\00:12:22.74
But you have never failed me Yet
00:12:22.77\00:12:27.98
Waiting for change to come
00:12:35.28\00:12:41.52
Knowing the battle's won
00:12:41.56\00:12:47.70
For you have never failed me Yet
00:12:47.73\00:12:54.30
Your promise still stands
00:12:59.77\00:13:03.24

00:13:19.63\00:13:24.80

00:13:37.45\00:13:43.49
Your word will come to pass
00:13:43.52\00:13:49.79
My heart will
sing Your praise again
00:13:49.82\00:13:55.40

I'll see you do it again
00:16:00.52\00:16:03.56

00:16:03.59\00:16:06.53
Where there was no way
00:16:06.56\00:16:09.53
And I believe

I'll see you do it again

Hello, this is Gillian Howard.
00:18:14.36\00:18:17.53
And I have the
scripture reading for today.
00:18:17.56\00:18:21.03
Acts 2:17-21.
00:18:21.06\00:18:25.40
"In the last days, God says,
00:18:25.43\00:18:28.27
'I will pour out my
Spirit on all people,
00:18:28.30\00:18:32.44
your sons and
daughters will prophesy,
00:18:32.47\00:18:36.01
your young men will see visions,
00:18:36.04\00:18:38.85
your old men will dream dreams,
00:18:38.88\00:18:42.12
even on my
servants, both men and women.
00:18:42.15\00:18:47.06
I will pour out my
Spirit in those days,
00:18:47.09\00:18:51.73
and they will prophesy.
00:18:51.76\00:18:54.50
I will show wonders
in the heavens above,
00:18:54.53\00:18:57.77
and signs on the earth below,
00:18:57.80\00:19:00.94
blood and fire
and billows of smoke.
00:19:00.97\00:19:05.71
The sun will be
turned to darkness
00:19:05.74\00:19:08.08
and the moon to blood
00:19:08.11\00:19:11.15
before the coming of the great
and glorious day of the Lord.
00:19:11.18\00:19:16.28
And everyone who calls
00:19:16.32\00:19:18.09
on the name of the
Lord will be saved.'"
00:19:18.12\00:19:21.29
Let's pray.
00:19:26.23\00:19:28.06
Oh, God, you end the
Bible with an altar call, come.
00:19:28.10\00:19:33.57
The Spirit says come.
00:19:33.60\00:19:36.24
The bride says come,
all heaven says come.
00:19:36.27\00:19:40.04
Well, here we are.
00:19:40.08\00:19:41.74
We've come to this moment.
00:19:41.78\00:19:43.71
If you're
making an appeal to us,
00:19:43.75\00:19:45.75
may we hear with
the best hearing we have
00:19:45.78\00:19:52.59
with the clarity
that only the Holy Spirit
00:19:52.62\00:19:54.36
can bring in Jesus' name.
00:19:54.39\00:19:56.69
Amen.
00:19:56.73\00:19:58.46
So here's the
million dollar question
00:19:58.49\00:20:00.16
for you and me.
00:20:00.20\00:20:04.10
Can God revive America?
00:20:04.13\00:20:09.14
One of our Canadian viewers
sent me a link to the CBC.
00:20:09.17\00:20:13.48
That's the Canadian
Broadcasting Company.
00:20:13.51\00:20:15.61
There's an article
there, she wanted me to read,
00:20:15.64\00:20:17.51
"Things fall apart
in the United States
00:20:17.55\00:20:19.65
and Canada takes a
hard look in the mirror."
00:20:19.68\00:20:22.55
Let's put, this
is the journalist,
00:20:22.58\00:20:25.19
Aaron Wherry.
00:20:25.22\00:20:26.55
We put Aaron
Wherry's words on the screen,
00:20:26.59\00:20:28.56
"The United States
has offered the world
00:20:28.59\00:20:30.66
a demonstration of
how things can fall apart.
00:20:30.69\00:20:34.86
Not in one cataclysmic moment."
00:20:34.90\00:20:36.26
Nope.
00:20:36.30\00:20:37.63
"But slowly and steadily
over a long period of time,
00:20:37.67\00:20:42.20
as institutions and
ideas erode and crumble."
00:20:42.24\00:20:46.51
And when I read that, I said,
wow, that's the Roman Empire.
00:20:46.54\00:20:50.25
Are you serious?
00:20:50.28\00:20:52.35
Can God revive America?
00:20:52.38\00:20:56.32
We had a
pre-election prayer meeting.
00:20:56.35\00:20:58.25
Thank you, Chaplain
Jose, for pulling that off.
00:20:58.29\00:21:00.72
It was through Zoom,
00:21:00.76\00:21:02.22
Facebook Live,
last Monday evening.
00:21:02.26\00:21:05.69
And one of the participants,
00:21:05.73\00:21:07.06
a friend of mine
named Cliff Jones,
00:21:07.10\00:21:08.96
say, "You got to read
the story of Jonah, folks."
00:21:09.00\00:21:12.87
And when we read
the story, I said,
00:21:12.90\00:21:14.24
My Lord, I know
it reads Nineveh,
00:21:14.27\00:21:18.51
I'm thinking America, come on.
00:21:18.54\00:21:20.38
Let's read it,
when's the last time you
00:21:20.41\00:21:21.74
were even in the Book of Jonah.
00:21:21.78\00:21:24.65
Tucked away in
those minor prophets,
00:21:24.68\00:21:27.85
hard to find.
00:21:27.88\00:21:29.38
Jonah Chapter 3,
00:21:29.42\00:21:30.75
we'll just catch
the flavor of this.
00:21:30.79\00:21:33.66
This is absolutely amazing.
00:21:33.69\00:21:36.32
Jonah 3:1,
00:21:36.36\00:21:38.16
I'm in the New
International Version.
00:21:38.19\00:21:40.70
"Then the word of the Lord
came to Jonah a second time:
00:21:40.73\00:21:44.83
'Go to that
great city of Nineveh
00:21:44.87\00:21:46.67
and proclaim to it
the message I give you.'
00:21:46.70\00:21:50.47
This time Jonah
obeyed the word of the Lord
00:21:50.51\00:21:52.84
and he went to Nineveh.
00:21:52.87\00:21:54.24
Now Nineveh was
a very large city,
00:21:54.28\00:21:55.68
it took three
days to go through it.
00:21:55.71\00:21:57.68
Jonah began by
going a day's journey
00:21:57.71\00:21:59.38
into the city
proclaiming 40 more days,
00:21:59.41\00:22:02.25
and Nineveh will be
overthrown, you'll be new."
00:22:02.28\00:22:05.25
And guess what?
00:22:05.29\00:22:06.62
The Ninevites, you know,
00:22:06.65\00:22:08.52
the Assyrian
Empire was the baddest
00:22:08.56\00:22:10.16
of the bad of the
bad, cruel and violent.
00:22:10.19\00:22:14.46
This is amazing line,
"The Ninevites believed God,
00:22:14.50\00:22:18.03
a fast was proclaimed,
00:22:18.07\00:22:20.57
and all of them from
the greatest to the least
00:22:20.60\00:22:22.67
put on sackcloth.
00:22:22.70\00:22:25.27
When Jonah's warning
reached the king of Nineveh,
00:22:25.31\00:22:27.58
he rose from his throne,
took off his royal robes,
00:22:27.61\00:22:31.41
covered himself with sackcloth,
and sat down in the dust.
00:22:31.45\00:22:35.15
This is the
proclamation issued in Nineveh:
00:22:35.18\00:22:39.22
'By the decree of
the king and his nobles,
00:22:39.25\00:22:41.86
do not let people or
animals or herds or flocks,
00:22:41.89\00:22:44.66
taste anything, do
not let them eat or drink,
00:22:44.69\00:22:47.43
but let people and animals
be covered with sackcloth,
00:22:47.46\00:22:49.80
let everyone
call urgently on God.
00:22:49.83\00:22:53.13
Let them give up their evil ways
00:22:53.17\00:22:54.90
and their violence.'
00:22:54.94\00:22:56.27
Who knows?
00:22:56.30\00:22:57.64
God may yet relent
and with compassion,
00:22:57.67\00:23:00.04
turn from his fierce anger
so that we will not perish.'
00:23:00.08\00:23:03.95
When God saw what they did,
00:23:03.98\00:23:07.25
and how they turned
from their evil ways,
00:23:07.28\00:23:09.68
He relented,
00:23:09.72\00:23:11.29
and did not bring
on them the destruction
00:23:11.32\00:23:14.36
He had threatened."
00:23:14.39\00:23:16.46
Look, folks, if God can spare
00:23:16.49\00:23:19.36
and save wicked Nineveh,
00:23:19.39\00:23:25.20
the question, can
God revive America
00:23:25.23\00:23:27.14
turns out to be a
rhetorical question.
00:23:27.17\00:23:29.74
So let me change the question.
00:23:29.77\00:23:31.11
Can we revive America?
00:23:31.14\00:23:34.44
I'm amazed at
some of the suggestions
00:23:34.48\00:23:36.95
now coming out
of educated circles,
00:23:36.98\00:23:40.32
with solutions
for America's need
00:23:40.35\00:23:42.92
of a revival.
00:23:42.95\00:23:45.72
Husband and wife team,
also viewers sent me last week,
00:23:45.75\00:23:51.53
a link to a Christianity
Today website interview.
00:23:51.56\00:23:56.67
And I got to share a line
from that interview with you.
00:23:56.70\00:23:59.23
They're interviewing Kim Colby.
00:23:59.27\00:24:01.50
She's a graduate
of Harvard Law School.
00:24:01.54\00:24:03.91
And now with a
Christian Legal Society
00:24:03.94\00:24:05.64
Center for Law
and Religious Freedom.
00:24:05.67\00:24:08.18
They want to talk to her
about the recent appointment
00:24:08.21\00:24:10.38
of Amy Coney.
00:24:10.41\00:24:11.75
Coney Barrett,
00:24:11.78\00:24:13.11
it's just that's the
name we're living with now
00:24:13.15\00:24:14.78
to the Supreme Court.
00:24:14.82\00:24:16.38
So now in the
middle of the interview,
00:24:16.42\00:24:18.45
here we go, question.
00:24:18.49\00:24:19.89
"Generally speaking
Protestants and Catholics
00:24:19.92\00:24:22.16
read the Bible differently.
00:24:22.19\00:24:23.53
So do you think they would read
the Constitution differently?"
00:24:23.56\00:24:27.36
Answer.
00:24:27.40\00:24:28.73
That is interesting.
00:24:28.76\00:24:30.17
I haven't thought about it
myself or really explored it.
00:24:30.20\00:24:32.73
My instinct would be no,
00:24:32.77\00:24:34.20
they would not read the
Constitution differently,
00:24:34.24\00:24:36.47
even though
00:24:36.50\00:24:37.84
because
theologically that's true.
00:24:37.87\00:24:43.48
They read the Bible differently.
00:24:43.51\00:24:45.91
And then she relates a debate
00:24:45.95\00:24:47.32
they've been having
at Harvard this summer.
00:24:47.35\00:24:50.25
I'm gonna put it
on the screen for you.
00:24:50.29\00:24:51.62
These are her words, Kim Colby.
00:24:51.65\00:24:53.15
"There is a
divide very recently,
00:24:53.19\00:24:55.89
where a Catholic law professor
at Harvard came out and said,
00:24:55.92\00:25:00.66
"When we have
the political power
00:25:00.70\00:25:02.73
to impose what's right
00:25:02.76\00:25:04.20
as we understand our
faith to teach what's right,
00:25:04.23\00:25:08.14
then we should do it."
00:25:08.17\00:25:12.94
Is that a stunner or what?
00:25:12.97\00:25:15.78
Hey, listen,
let's have a revival,
00:25:15.81\00:25:18.25
let's legislative revival.
00:25:18.28\00:25:20.15
Let's impose a revival.
00:25:20.18\00:25:23.45
Come on, oh, look at that line,
00:25:23.49\00:25:24.85
"When we have the
political power to impose,"
00:25:24.89\00:25:30.16
that's a
foreboding word "to impose,
00:25:30.19\00:25:32.03
to force what's right,
00:25:32.06\00:25:34.06
as we understand our
faith to teach what's right,
00:25:34.10\00:25:38.00
then we should do it."
00:25:38.03\00:25:41.84
Mercy!
00:25:41.87\00:25:44.54
Now she responds
00:25:44.57\00:25:45.91
and you need to see her response
00:25:45.94\00:25:47.28
this fellow attorney,
00:25:47.31\00:25:48.91
"And I don't agree with that.
00:25:48.94\00:25:50.65
I think it is a
very dangerous idea,"
00:25:50.68\00:25:53.62
and so do I by the way.
00:25:53.65\00:25:55.65
"And there was a
lot of debate about that
00:25:55.68\00:25:58.12
for a few weeks this summer."
00:25:58.15\00:26:00.16
My, my, my, my,
can God revive America?
00:26:00.19\00:26:03.46
Well, yeah, we
can get enough power,
00:26:03.49\00:26:06.03
political power,
we can force America,
00:26:06.06\00:26:08.23
we can impose upon
America the agenda for God.
00:26:08.26\00:26:13.50
You got to be kidding me.
00:26:13.54\00:26:17.24
Here's the question.
00:26:17.27\00:26:19.21
Who decides whose faith
is supposed to be legislated?
00:26:19.24\00:26:22.58
Is it the Roman Catholic faith?
00:26:22.61\00:26:24.55
Is it the Baptist faith?
00:26:24.58\00:26:26.38
How about the
Presbyterians faith?
00:26:26.41\00:26:28.05
How about the little
Seventh-day Adventist faith?
00:26:28.08\00:26:30.52
Who determines the
interpretation of faith?
00:26:30.55\00:26:35.42
Answer, those who
have the most votes.
00:26:35.46\00:26:39.83
That's it.
00:26:39.86\00:26:42.33
Hey, listen,
00:26:42.36\00:26:44.87
with all this
bedlam that has gone on,
00:26:44.90\00:26:47.70
over counting
ballots this election.
00:26:47.74\00:26:49.57
Can you imagine
a roomful of clergy
00:26:49.60\00:26:51.47
and a roomful of politicians
00:26:51.51\00:26:53.41
arguing over
whose faith is the faith
00:26:53.44\00:26:55.61
that we're going to legislate,
00:26:55.64\00:26:56.98
and then they cast the votes
00:26:57.01\00:26:58.35
and then they take
forever to count them?
00:26:58.38\00:27:00.22
I mean, what
will come out of that?
00:27:00.25\00:27:03.18
And God, can God revive America?
00:27:03.22\00:27:07.19
We end this American
apocalypse with one line.
00:27:07.22\00:27:11.36
Open your Bible to
the apocalypse, please,
00:27:11.39\00:27:12.89
one line, this is it.
00:27:12.93\00:27:14.46
Part 10.
00:27:14.50\00:27:15.90
Can God revive America?
00:27:15.93\00:27:18.10
I mean, we're
talking about a genuine,
00:27:18.13\00:27:19.77
spiritual moral revival.
00:27:19.80\00:27:22.67
Could it happen here?
00:27:22.70\00:27:24.04
Let's go. Revelation Chapter 18.
00:27:24.07\00:27:26.94
Got your study
Bible there with you?
00:27:26.98\00:27:29.94
Just one line, Revelation 18:1.
00:27:29.98\00:27:34.12
"And after this,
00:27:34.15\00:27:35.48
I saw another angel
coming down from heaven.
00:27:35.52\00:27:40.26
He had great authority,
00:27:40.29\00:27:41.92
and the earth was
illuminated by his splendor."
00:27:41.96\00:27:46.63
Hey, have you seen those
screensavers you can get,
00:27:46.66\00:27:49.76
you can download
maybe just, anyway,
00:27:49.80\00:27:52.10
I downloaded some on my Mac.
00:27:52.13\00:27:54.14
They're taken by drones
over great cities in the world.
00:27:54.17\00:27:57.34
They're taken from
satellites over continents.
00:27:57.37\00:28:01.04
It's just fascinating.
00:28:01.08\00:28:02.91
Since I got ADHD, I
just every time that happens,
00:28:02.94\00:28:05.15
I just forget what I'm
doing just a watch this thing,
00:28:05.18\00:28:07.62
it's beautiful.
00:28:07.65\00:28:08.98
Have you ever
seen America at night?
00:28:09.02\00:28:13.56
I'm gonna show you right now.
00:28:13.59\00:28:14.92
In fact, our title slide
is on "America at night."
00:28:14.96\00:28:17.59
American
Apocalypse, here's what we know.
00:28:17.63\00:28:19.86
The best is yet to come.
00:28:19.89\00:28:21.23
So that's the
title of this piece.
00:28:21.26\00:28:22.76
But let's take
the words off of it.
00:28:22.80\00:28:25.50
Look at America at night.
00:28:25.53\00:28:27.17
My, my, my, my, my.
00:28:27.20\00:28:28.54
Hey, hey, wave.
00:28:28.57\00:28:30.87
There we are.
00:28:30.91\00:28:32.87
Isn't that us?
00:28:32.91\00:28:34.54
Wrong time of day.
00:28:34.58\00:28:37.05
You look at that.
00:28:37.08\00:28:38.81
What just happened
in Revelation 18:1.
00:28:38.85\00:28:44.75
Apparently, it's not
only describing America,
00:28:44.79\00:28:47.39
it's describing
the whole planet.
00:28:47.42\00:28:49.22
Come on, Revelation
18:1 "And after this,
00:28:49.26\00:28:51.23
I saw another angel
coming down from heaven
00:28:51.26\00:28:53.13
and he had great authority,
00:28:53.16\00:28:54.93
and the earth was
illuminated by his splendor."
00:28:54.96\00:28:58.77
Now look, it's
obvious to all of us.
00:28:58.80\00:29:00.87
It has to be the
glory of Jesus, right?
00:29:00.90\00:29:04.31
I mean, you and I,
00:29:04.34\00:29:05.67
and angels we
got, we're the same.
00:29:05.71\00:29:08.68
Humans and
angels there is no glory
00:29:08.71\00:29:10.58
that emanates from within.
00:29:10.61\00:29:12.88
It all reflects from without.
00:29:12.91\00:29:16.22
Angels don't have glory.
00:29:16.25\00:29:17.69
They just hang
around glory 24/7,
00:29:17.72\00:29:20.32
and they got it
wherever they go.
00:29:20.36\00:29:22.36
They have the glory.
00:29:22.39\00:29:24.53
So it can't be an angel's
glory that illumines the earth,
00:29:24.56\00:29:28.03
it has to come
from someone else.
00:29:28.06\00:29:29.66
Now I remind you,
00:29:29.70\00:29:31.03
in case you've forgotten
00:29:31.07\00:29:32.40
that nearly every
line in the apocalypse
00:29:32.43\00:29:35.04
is either a
translation of or an allusion
00:29:35.07\00:29:39.17
to something from
the Old Testament.
00:29:39.21\00:29:43.08
And what we see right
here, in fact is spot on.
00:29:43.11\00:29:45.38
That's what it is. In
fact, let me show it to you.
00:29:45.41\00:29:46.78
Ezekiel 43:1,
"The man brought me,"
00:29:46.82\00:29:51.69
young Ezekiel the Prophet.
00:29:51.72\00:29:54.02
"He brought me to
the gate facing east, "
00:29:54.06\00:29:56.42
that's the direction of God,
00:29:56.46\00:29:58.16
"And I saw the glory of the God
of Israel coming from the east.
00:29:58.19\00:30:03.33
His voice, God's voice was
like the roar of rushing waters,
00:30:03.37\00:30:08.04
and the land was
radiant with his glory."
00:30:08.07\00:30:10.81
Do you recognize
that in Revelation 18:1?
00:30:10.84\00:30:12.81
Of course, there's a bow.
00:30:12.84\00:30:15.74
And by the way, if you looked
at the description of Jesus,
00:30:15.78\00:30:19.15
the physical description
of the glorified Christ
00:30:19.18\00:30:21.92
in Revelation Chapter 1,
00:30:21.95\00:30:23.65
you'll notice that His
voice is described as the roar,
00:30:23.69\00:30:27.96
the roar of rushing waters.
00:30:27.99\00:30:30.56
And by the way,
00:30:30.59\00:30:31.93
John took one look at his face
00:30:31.96\00:30:33.29
that was as bright
he said as the sun,
00:30:33.33\00:30:35.70
brighter than the sun,
00:30:35.73\00:30:37.20
and he's dead on the
ground, he just passes out.
00:30:37.23\00:30:41.44
So that's what
John is talking about.
00:30:41.47\00:30:45.17
This isn't the
glory of an angel,
00:30:45.21\00:30:47.38
this is the glory of
the mighty, ascended,
00:30:47.41\00:30:51.48
reigning and soon coming,
00:30:51.51\00:30:53.98
Lord Jesus
Christ, that's the glory.
00:30:54.02\00:30:57.45
That soaks itself
00:30:57.49\00:30:59.35
into the life and
story of this planet.
00:30:59.39\00:31:04.39
Wow.
00:31:04.43\00:31:07.63
What's going on here?
00:31:07.66\00:31:09.43
I'm talking
about in Revelation 18,
00:31:09.46\00:31:10.80
this can't be the
second coming guys.
00:31:10.83\00:31:12.90
The second
coming is in Chapter 19.
00:31:12.93\00:31:14.77
What is happening here?
00:31:14.80\00:31:17.14
Apparently, this is
a global intervention.
00:31:17.17\00:31:22.24
Now listen carefully.
00:31:22.28\00:31:23.61
This celestial ambassador
breaks this the sound barrier,
00:31:23.65\00:31:30.49
there must have
been a sonic boom
00:31:30.52\00:31:31.85
when he showed us, boom,
00:31:31.89\00:31:33.82
enters through
our atmosphere, feet,
00:31:33.86\00:31:35.72
that the moment his feet
touched this terrestrial ball.
00:31:35.76\00:31:40.13
The whole ball is a
light of the glory of Christ.
00:31:40.16\00:31:46.03
What's going on here?
00:31:46.07\00:31:47.40
Whatever it is,
I'll tell you what?
00:31:47.44\00:31:48.97
It is big, and it is global.
00:31:49.00\00:31:51.07
And that's what
I love about God,
00:31:51.11\00:31:52.44
because He lives by this
adage, go big or go home.
00:31:52.47\00:31:55.41
That's just the way He lives.
00:31:55.44\00:31:56.85
He didn't do puny.
00:31:56.88\00:31:58.98
He does big.
00:31:59.01\00:32:01.02
This is huge. You
know what this is?
00:32:01.05\00:32:02.65
This is the last revival
00:32:02.68\00:32:05.09
in the history of the human race
00:32:05.12\00:32:06.62
and hasn't even started yet.
00:32:06.65\00:32:08.52
We're close.
00:32:08.56\00:32:10.33
Oh, go big before you come home.
00:32:10.36\00:32:12.89
That's what God is saying.
00:32:12.93\00:32:14.53
How big?
00:32:14.56\00:32:15.90
Take a look at this.
00:32:15.93\00:32:19.23
If this is the last revival,
00:32:19.27\00:32:21.54
now I suppose there'd be a clue
00:32:21.57\00:32:22.90
if we went to the first
revival of the Christian Church,
00:32:22.94\00:32:25.17
the early infant,
Christian movement.
00:32:25.21\00:32:29.98
Let's do it, come
on, for the fun of it.
00:32:30.01\00:32:31.71
You just go back to Acts 2,
00:32:31.75\00:32:33.08
everybody knows
the story of Pentecost.
00:32:33.11\00:32:35.25
I want you to see this.
00:32:35.28\00:32:36.79
Because if
Pentecost is this way,
00:32:36.82\00:32:39.62
can you imagine
00:32:39.65\00:32:41.09
what the last revival
on the earth will be like?
00:32:41.12\00:32:44.16
All right, Acts Chapter 2.
00:32:44.19\00:32:45.76
"And when the day
of Pentecost came,
00:32:45.79\00:32:48.63
they were all
together in one place, "
00:32:48.66\00:32:50.53
they're in the upper room.
00:32:50.57\00:32:52.47
"And suddenly a sound
00:32:52.50\00:32:54.20
like the blowing
of a violent wind, "
00:32:54.24\00:32:56.20
notice this, it's the
sound, not the movement,
00:32:56.24\00:32:58.84
the curtain stand,
00:32:58.87\00:33:00.21
the curtains don't even tremble,
00:33:00.24\00:33:01.58
but it's gale force, wind.
00:33:01.61\00:33:06.21
And then according to
the Greek construction,
00:33:06.25\00:33:07.92
there appears in
over their heads,
00:33:07.95\00:33:10.49
an orange ball, fire,
00:33:10.52\00:33:14.09
orange ball and an
unseen hand as it were,
00:33:14.12\00:33:16.59
with a paring knife slices
off from that orange ball.
00:33:16.62\00:33:19.66
And the moment that
slice of fire is loosen,
00:33:19.69\00:33:23.03
shew, and it's
on top of somebody.
00:33:23.06\00:33:25.73
It's on top of her, him, us.
00:33:25.77\00:33:31.57
"And all of them,"
00:33:31.61\00:33:32.94
what does it
say here in verse 4,
00:33:32.97\00:33:34.38
"And all of them were
filled with the Holy Spirit.
00:33:34.41\00:33:36.75
And they began to
speak in other tongues,
00:33:36.78\00:33:39.45
as a spirit enabled them."
00:33:39.48\00:33:40.82
We know those
are other languages
00:33:40.85\00:33:42.18
because like five verses later,
00:33:42.22\00:33:43.99
people from all over
the planet are saying,
00:33:44.02\00:33:45.75
"Man, how come I can
hear you in my home tongue."
00:33:45.79\00:33:50.19
Peter, guests, obviously, I know
00:33:50.23\00:33:51.56
some of you think we're drunk.
00:33:51.59\00:33:52.93
We're not drunk.
00:33:52.96\00:33:54.30
It's only 9
o'clock in the morning.
00:33:54.33\00:33:55.66
I want to tell you
what's happening right now.
00:33:55.70\00:33:57.30
Now listen carefully,
00:33:57.33\00:33:58.67
because he's gonna
interpret the first revival
00:33:58.70\00:34:01.14
so that we can
understand this, the last one.
00:34:01.17\00:34:03.27
All right, he
says, listen carefully
00:34:03.30\00:34:04.64
what you were seeing today
00:34:04.67\00:34:06.01
is the fulfillment
of the prophecy of Joel.
00:34:06.04\00:34:08.08
Okay, now we pick it up.
00:34:08.11\00:34:09.44
But I want you to
read here, verse 17.
00:34:09.48\00:34:12.08
"In the last
days," he's quoting Jonah.
00:34:12.11\00:34:15.08
This is a big fisherman Peter,
"In the last days, God says,
00:34:15.12\00:34:19.19
'I will pour out my
Spirit on all people.'"
00:34:19.22\00:34:22.86
How many people, folks?
00:34:22.89\00:34:24.73
Come on, how many people?
00:34:24.76\00:34:26.76
Could it be the whole world?
00:34:26.80\00:34:28.53
Could that be a huge clue
00:34:28.56\00:34:33.67
that whatever breaks out,
00:34:33.70\00:34:35.64
will break out simultaneously
all over the planet?
00:34:35.67\00:34:40.48
"I will pour my
Spirit out on all people
00:34:40.51\00:34:42.84
and your sons and your daughters
00:34:42.88\00:34:44.58
will prophesy,
00:34:44.61\00:34:45.95
your young men will see visions
00:34:45.98\00:34:47.55
and your old men will dream
dreams even on my servants,
00:34:47.58\00:34:50.65
both men and women.
00:34:50.69\00:34:52.05
I will pour out my
Spirit in those days
00:34:52.09\00:34:54.59
and they will prophesy."
00:34:54.62\00:34:56.06
Keep reading.
00:34:56.09\00:34:57.43
"I will show
wonders in the heavens above
00:34:57.46\00:34:59.56
and signs on the earth below,
00:34:59.59\00:35:02.70
blood and fire
and billows of smoke.
00:35:02.73\00:35:06.17
The sun will be
turned to darkness."
00:35:06.20\00:35:08.10
Listen, if we had a session
00:35:08.14\00:35:10.64
on the powers of heaven
being shaken in Luke 21.
00:35:10.67\00:35:13.24
This is right around there.
00:35:13.27\00:35:16.41
"The sun will be
turned to darkness,
00:35:16.44\00:35:19.98
the moon will turn to blood
00:35:20.02\00:35:22.08
before the coming of the great
and glorious day of the Lord."
00:35:22.12\00:35:25.35
This is just before the
return of Christ and Peter.
00:35:25.39\00:35:31.23
Hey, Peter,
you're messed up, buddy.
00:35:31.26\00:35:34.66
This isn't
about your generation.
00:35:34.70\00:35:36.53
This is about our generation.
00:35:36.56\00:35:38.33
We're the last generation,
you're at the beginning.
00:35:38.37\00:35:41.17
But he takes the
description of the,
00:35:41.20\00:35:43.91
at the end of time, revival.
00:35:43.94\00:35:47.94
And he says, "We're the first,
00:35:47.98\00:35:51.45
a down payment
will eventually come."
00:35:51.48\00:35:57.12
I mean, if the
beginning is like this,
00:35:57.15\00:35:59.39
can you imagine
what the ending will be?
00:35:59.42\00:36:04.16
Let's read again.
00:36:04.19\00:36:05.89
Verse 1, Revelation 18,
00:36:05.93\00:36:08.63
"And after this,
00:36:08.66\00:36:10.00
I saw another angel
coming down from heaven,
00:36:10.03\00:36:11.53
and he had great
authority and the earth, "
00:36:11.57\00:36:14.27
we're talking
about the world, folks,
00:36:14.30\00:36:16.27
"the earth was
illuminated by his splendor."
00:36:16.30\00:36:20.68
I got to share
this line with you
00:36:20.71\00:36:22.04
from that apocalyptic
classic, Great Controversy.
00:36:22.08\00:36:23.78
If you don't have that classic.
00:36:23.81\00:36:25.35
In just a moment,
00:36:25.38\00:36:26.72
you're going to
get an opportunity
00:36:26.75\00:36:28.32
to get a free no cost copy.
00:36:28.35\00:36:31.19
All right.
00:36:31.22\00:36:32.55
Let's read Great
Controversy on the screen,
00:36:32.59\00:36:34.26
"The angel who unites
00:36:34.29\00:36:35.69
in the proclamation of
the third angel's message,"
00:36:35.72\00:36:39.16
like to think of this
angel as the fourth angel,
00:36:39.19\00:36:42.20
"is to lighten the
whole earth with his glory."
00:36:42.23\00:36:45.03
We already got that,
that's Revelation 18:1,
00:36:45.07\00:36:47.44
"A work of
world-wide extent and unwonted,"
00:36:47.47\00:36:50.77
that's old English.
00:36:50.81\00:36:52.14
That means extraordinary
power is here foretold.
00:36:52.17\00:36:55.78
Now keep reading.
00:36:55.81\00:36:57.15
"The great work of the gospel."
00:36:57.18\00:36:59.58
Oh, I love this.
00:36:59.61\00:37:00.95
The great work of the
gospel is not to close
00:37:00.98\00:37:02.65
with less manifestation
of the power of God
00:37:02.68\00:37:04.95
than marked its opening."
00:37:04.99\00:37:06.69
If you have this
spectacular opening,
00:37:06.72\00:37:09.06
you are assured
00:37:09.09\00:37:10.63
that there will be
a triumphant ending
00:37:10.66\00:37:15.30
to this little community.
00:37:15.33\00:37:17.30
This faith community
00:37:17.33\00:37:18.70
that wanders the
face of the earth
00:37:18.73\00:37:20.90
as Christianity has often
did through the millennia.
00:37:20.94\00:37:25.67
Do you know what that looks like
00:37:25.71\00:37:27.04
up close and personal?
00:37:27.08\00:37:28.41
You got to see this.
00:37:28.44\00:37:29.78
This is one of my favorite lines
00:37:29.81\00:37:31.15
in Great Controversy.
00:37:31.18\00:37:32.51
Put it on the screen,
please. Servants of God.
00:37:32.55\00:37:34.22
Okay, friends of God.
00:37:34.25\00:37:36.22
Friends of God,
00:37:36.25\00:37:37.59
with their faces lighted up
00:37:37.62\00:37:38.95
and shining with
Holy consecration.
00:37:38.99\00:37:40.86
Well, how could
your face be lighted up?
00:37:40.89\00:37:42.59
There's no glory inside of me.
00:37:42.62\00:37:43.96
Well, you gotten close
to somebody with glory.
00:37:43.99\00:37:46.29
Obviously, they've
drawn near to Christ
00:37:46.33\00:37:48.83
that their faces radiate
with that holy consecration.
00:37:48.86\00:37:52.43
"Friends of Jesus,
with their faces lighted up,
00:37:52.47\00:37:55.30
will hasten from
place to place, "
00:37:55.34\00:37:57.54
hit the pause
button right there.
00:37:57.57\00:37:58.91
These have to be Gen
zers or maybe millennials.
00:37:58.94\00:38:02.54
When they want
them to go somewhere,
00:38:02.58\00:38:03.91
all they need is what?
00:38:03.95\00:38:05.28
A plane ticket, a
laptop and a passport.
00:38:05.31\00:38:07.02
They can go
anywhere on the planet.
00:38:07.05\00:38:09.55
Pandemic has kind
of ended that story.
00:38:09.58\00:38:12.99
But let me just say
this about the pandemic,
00:38:13.02\00:38:14.42
since you brought it up.
00:38:14.46\00:38:16.73
The pandemic
00:38:16.76\00:38:19.69
is not going to go indefinitely.
00:38:19.73\00:38:22.23
I don't bring
you a word from God.
00:38:22.26\00:38:24.33
I bring you the thoughts of God
00:38:24.37\00:38:26.53
that will call
for this to happen.
00:38:26.57\00:38:31.24
We can't do this right now.
00:38:31.27\00:38:33.81
Servants, friends of Jesus,
00:38:33.84\00:38:35.91
going from door to door
hastening from place to place,
00:38:35.94\00:38:39.78
but the day is coming.
00:38:39.81\00:38:41.28
God will not leave this planet
00:38:41.32\00:38:42.88
pinned down by the
enemy of the universe.
00:38:42.92\00:38:47.39
Yeah, the devil has
held a pay as it is.
00:38:47.42\00:38:50.39
All right, "Friends
of God, faces lighted up,
00:38:50.43\00:38:54.20
hasten from place to place,"
00:38:54.23\00:38:55.56
I like that,
00:38:55.60\00:38:56.93
"to proclaim the
message from heaven."
00:38:56.97\00:38:58.30
Keep reading. "By thousands."
00:38:58.33\00:39:01.24
What's this
number, folks? Thousands.
00:39:01.27\00:39:03.77
These are not
just little preachers
00:39:03.81\00:39:05.14
running around.
00:39:05.17\00:39:06.51
This is not preachers.
00:39:06.54\00:39:07.88
These are by the
thousands of voices,
00:39:07.91\00:39:11.21
members of a faith community
00:39:11.25\00:39:13.28
that will fan out
over the human race.
00:39:13.31\00:39:17.02
You're one of them.
00:39:17.05\00:39:18.69
You're one of them.
00:39:18.72\00:39:20.06
You haven't even
thought of yourself
00:39:20.09\00:39:21.42
as one of the thousands,
but you are one of them.
00:39:21.46\00:39:23.93
"By thousands of voices,
00:39:23.96\00:39:25.46
all over the
earth, the warning, "
00:39:25.49\00:39:26.83
what warning?
00:39:26.86\00:39:28.20
Jesus is coming soon.
00:39:28.23\00:39:29.56
And by the way, don't you
dare get that mark of the beast.
00:39:29.60\00:39:32.20
Don't you get it?
00:39:32.23\00:39:33.77
It's the end.
00:39:33.80\00:39:35.84
Stay true to Jesus.
00:39:35.87\00:39:37.71
"The warning will be given.
00:39:37.74\00:39:40.54
Miracles will be wrought,
the sick will be healed, "
00:39:40.58\00:39:44.65
and look at this,
00:39:44.68\00:39:46.01
"and signs and wonders
will follow the believers."
00:39:46.05\00:39:48.75
You remember last week,
00:39:48.78\00:39:50.12
those three ugly
frogs coming out,
00:39:50.15\00:39:51.55
you remember that,
coming out of the mouth.
00:39:51.59\00:39:52.92
All right. The satanic trinity.
00:39:52.95\00:39:54.59
What were those
three ugly green frogs?
00:39:54.62\00:39:57.19
Spirits of demons,
00:39:57.23\00:39:58.79
performing signs and wonders
00:39:58.83\00:40:00.96
to deceive the
kings of the earth.
00:40:01.00\00:40:03.60
Guess what? God
gets a jump on it.
00:40:03.63\00:40:05.67
And he has His signs and wonders
00:40:05.70\00:40:07.94
ready to go through
thousands of people,
00:40:07.97\00:40:11.41
including you and I hope me.
00:40:11.44\00:40:15.24
Wow.
00:40:15.28\00:40:16.61
Well, Satan's not
going to take that.
00:40:16.64\00:40:18.71
Satan also works.
00:40:18.75\00:40:20.82
He's not going to let
a global revival reign
00:40:20.85\00:40:23.12
on his parade.
00:40:23.15\00:40:24.49
Satan also works
with lying wonders,
00:40:24.52\00:40:26.45
even bringing
down fire from heaven
00:40:26.49\00:40:28.46
in the sight of men and women.
00:40:28.49\00:40:30.03
We've already read
that in Revelation 13,
00:40:30.06\00:40:32.29
one more line.
00:40:32.33\00:40:33.73
"Thus, the
inhabitants of the earth
00:40:33.76\00:40:35.76
will be brought
to take their stand."
00:40:35.80\00:40:40.24
This massive,
this mighty revival
00:40:40.27\00:40:42.50
is going to be
bigger than what started it.
00:40:42.54\00:40:44.27
This go big and
come home revival
00:40:44.31\00:40:47.98
of the entire planet.
00:40:48.01\00:40:50.45
This is no dress rehearsal.
00:40:50.48\00:40:52.61
This is no wimpy imitation.
00:40:52.65\00:40:56.18
It's the real deal.
00:40:56.22\00:40:58.62
It's the real deal that
we've been talking about,
00:40:58.65\00:41:01.46
and some of us praying about,
00:41:01.49\00:41:02.82
for a long time.
00:41:02.86\00:41:04.19
It's the last
apocalyptic rainfall
00:41:04.23\00:41:07.03
of the Holy
Spirit on the human race.
00:41:07.06\00:41:09.26
You've heard people
call something latter rain,
00:41:09.30\00:41:12.23
have you ever heard that?
00:41:12.27\00:41:13.60
Latter rain?
00:41:13.64\00:41:14.97
That's it right here.
00:41:15.00\00:41:16.34
It's this global
revival. It's the latter rain.
00:41:16.37\00:41:18.37
I like the way my
friend, Norman Gulley,
00:41:18.41\00:41:20.08
in his book, Christ is Coming.
00:41:20.11\00:41:21.44
He calls it
00:41:21.48\00:41:22.81
"The second coming
of the Holy Spirit."
00:41:22.84\00:41:27.48
Oh, I like that.
00:41:27.52\00:41:29.55
Where was His first coming?
00:41:29.58\00:41:32.12
Pentecost.
00:41:32.15\00:41:33.49
There'll be a
second coming. Of course.
00:41:33.52\00:41:35.22
He's never left the
whole time, right here.
00:41:35.26\00:41:38.73
The second coming
of the Holy Spirit, my!
00:41:38.76\00:41:44.27
And then, Norman
Gulley makes the point.
00:41:44.30\00:41:47.50
If you want to be ready
for the second coming of Jesus,
00:41:47.54\00:41:52.37
you got to be ready
00:41:52.41\00:41:53.81
for the second coming
of the Holy Spirit first.
00:41:53.84\00:41:57.78
No second coming of
the spirit in your heart,
00:41:57.81\00:42:00.95
no going to the home of
the second coming Jesus.
00:42:00.98\00:42:05.82
Oh, Dwight,
that's kind of rough.
00:42:05.85\00:42:07.59
Now let me just read
00:42:07.62\00:42:08.96
Gulley on the
screen here for a minute.
00:42:08.99\00:42:11.56
"Here's the bottom line:" Okay.
00:42:11.59\00:42:12.93
So he's making the point.
00:42:12.96\00:42:14.30
"To be ready for the
second coming of Christ
00:42:14.33\00:42:16.56
we must be ready
00:42:16.60\00:42:17.93
for the second
coming of the Holy Spirit."
00:42:17.97\00:42:19.67
Yeah.
00:42:19.70\00:42:21.04
"But to be unready
00:42:21.07\00:42:22.67
for the coming
of the Holy Spirit
00:42:22.70\00:42:24.77
is to be unready for
the coming of Christ."
00:42:24.81\00:42:28.84
What's the point? You
can't just blow this off.
00:42:28.88\00:42:31.25
Come on guys, you can't blow,
ah, I'm into this Holy Spirit.
00:42:31.28\00:42:34.15
I'm not a Pentecostal,
I'm not charismatic,
00:42:34.18\00:42:35.58
I'm just not into that.
00:42:35.62\00:42:37.65
You better get into it.
00:42:37.69\00:42:41.92
You got to get into it.
00:42:41.96\00:42:43.56
Your soul depends on it.
00:42:43.59\00:42:48.06
Let me explain.
00:42:48.10\00:42:51.37
Do you ever pray
for somebody who's lost?
00:42:51.40\00:42:54.67
Somebody you love,
somebody you know very well?
00:42:54.70\00:42:58.07
A friend of mine
out in California,
00:42:58.11\00:42:59.44
just this week
sent me an email say,
00:42:59.47\00:43:01.18
"Hey, Dwight, I got to
share a story with you."
00:43:01.21\00:43:04.25
It turns out
they're two grown men
00:43:04.28\00:43:06.25
out there on the West Coast,
00:43:06.28\00:43:07.68
I don't know who
they are by the way,
00:43:07.72\00:43:09.82
who haven't been to church
since they were teenagers.
00:43:09.85\00:43:11.95
Okay. So they
went to church. Okay.
00:43:11.99\00:43:13.36
My teens are
over, now I'm on my own,
00:43:13.39\00:43:15.22
and they had been on
their own all these years.
00:43:15.26\00:43:19.66
It turns out they
have a younger sister
00:43:19.69\00:43:22.83
who is relentless in her prayers
00:43:22.86\00:43:24.67
for her two older brothers.
00:43:24.70\00:43:26.03
Come on sisters,
pray for your brothers,
00:43:26.07\00:43:28.40
and the other way around.
00:43:28.44\00:43:30.01
She's been praying for,
00:43:30.04\00:43:31.94
and she's been
watching this series.
00:43:31.97\00:43:34.04
And so she gets
hold of her two bros,
00:43:34.08\00:43:36.14
and she says, "You guys,
00:43:36.18\00:43:37.51
you need to watch
American Apocalypse.
00:43:37.55\00:43:40.22
That's what you need."
00:43:40.25\00:43:42.25
And this is
truly the Holy Spirit.
00:43:42.28\00:43:44.99
Moment of the story,
they both decide to do that.
00:43:45.02\00:43:48.32
They're living
in separate places
00:43:48.36\00:43:51.16
and they watch the series,
which is ending right now.
00:43:51.19\00:43:56.67
And they give
their hearts to Jesus.
00:43:56.70\00:43:59.13
Unbelievable.
00:43:59.17\00:44:00.97
Independent of each other,
00:44:01.00\00:44:02.40
they call the local pastor
of the church they grew up in.
00:44:02.44\00:44:06.94
I want to come home to
the church and to Jesus,
00:44:06.98\00:44:08.68
what do I need to do?
00:44:08.71\00:44:10.85
Isn't that something?
00:44:10.88\00:44:12.55
Come on, guys.
00:44:12.58\00:44:13.92
God is just
softening up the earth.
00:44:13.95\00:44:16.28
One of these days, it comes,
00:44:16.32\00:44:20.69
the second coming
of the Holy Spirit.
00:44:20.72\00:44:23.83
You know, when you're
partnered with the Holy Spirit
00:44:23.86\00:44:25.49
like this young
sister obviously is,
00:44:25.53\00:44:29.56
there is no limit
what He can arrange
00:44:29.60\00:44:34.47
to be the very answer
your heart is longing for most.
00:44:34.50\00:44:37.77
How does she know what to say?
00:44:37.81\00:44:39.14
She could have sent
them a book or whatever.
00:44:39.17\00:44:42.04
I have no idea, but
he said, tell them this.
00:44:42.08\00:44:44.68
She told them that
and they got saved.
00:44:44.71\00:44:49.68
Don't blow off, by the
way, the teaching of prophecy.
00:44:49.72\00:44:53.59
There is a power
embedded in your study
00:44:53.62\00:44:56.96
of prophecy
00:44:56.99\00:45:00.23
that you won't
find anywhere else.
00:45:00.26\00:45:01.70
Wow.
00:45:04.83\00:45:06.17
So, hey, listen, take
these three action steps.
00:45:06.20\00:45:07.94
Let's just do
this. Three action steps.
00:45:07.97\00:45:10.11
You want to get
ready for the second coming
00:45:10.14\00:45:11.47
of the Holy Spirit?
00:45:11.51\00:45:12.84
Here are three action steps.
00:45:12.87\00:45:14.21
You want to help
God reach America?
00:45:14.24\00:45:15.68
Can God revive America?
00:45:15.71\00:45:17.28
Are you kidding?
Of course, He can.
00:45:17.31\00:45:19.58
Pray for your
lost family members
00:45:19.61\00:45:21.15
and friends every day.
00:45:21.18\00:45:22.52
Come on. Just pray for them.
00:45:22.55\00:45:24.52
That's not hard to do.
00:45:24.55\00:45:26.19
Pray for them. Number two.
00:45:26.22\00:45:27.89
Then, and this was new for me,
00:45:27.92\00:45:29.39
then ask for the Holy
Spirit to give you an idea
00:45:29.42\00:45:33.26
that will reach
these you are praying for.
00:45:33.29\00:45:35.36
I'm praying for a man,
00:45:35.40\00:45:36.73
he's a
professional in this community.
00:45:36.77\00:45:38.73
And I'm saying,
come on, Holy Spirit,
00:45:38.77\00:45:40.24
what am I going to do?
00:45:40.27\00:45:41.60
We've become friends.
00:45:41.64\00:45:42.97
What am I going to do?
00:45:43.00\00:45:47.14
I mean, the story
of that younger sister
00:45:47.18\00:45:48.91
shows you that it
may be coloring outside
00:45:48.94\00:45:51.08
the box, but I'm
asking you to do it.
00:45:51.11\00:45:55.12
And then number three.
00:45:55.15\00:45:56.89
Three action
steps every morning.
00:45:56.92\00:45:59.32
Pray the simple prayer
of asking Holy Spirit please
00:45:59.35\00:46:02.76
baptize me today with a
heart and mind of Jesus.
00:46:02.79\00:46:06.39
Just baptize me today.
00:46:06.43\00:46:08.03
You remember the
story of the 10 girlfriends.
00:46:08.06\00:46:10.30
Remember that parable?
00:46:10.33\00:46:12.47
The bridegroom, come
on, where's the bridegroom?
00:46:12.50\00:46:13.87
And we've been here...
how long we've been here?
00:46:13.90\00:46:15.24
Where is he? I don't know.
00:46:15.27\00:46:16.84
And all 10 went to
sleep, true or false?
00:46:16.87\00:46:19.37
They did,
00:46:19.41\00:46:20.74
but five of them
woke up and found out
00:46:20.78\00:46:22.11
that they did not
have sufficient oil
00:46:22.14\00:46:24.51
and the oil petered out
before the bridegroom arrived.
00:46:24.55\00:46:27.42
They went to Walmart
and while they were there,
00:46:27.45\00:46:29.75
he came and that was it.
00:46:29.78\00:46:31.79
They're out.
00:46:31.82\00:46:34.36
We're all drowsy right now.
00:46:34.39\00:46:36.06
All of this pandemic
00:46:36.09\00:46:37.43
and life in America
has awakened most of us.
00:46:37.46\00:46:42.16
This is the time for that oil.
00:46:42.20\00:46:46.03
You can't wait
00:46:46.07\00:46:47.40
till the big
crisis comes too late.
00:46:47.44\00:46:50.41
This is the time for
the oil of the Holy Spirit
00:46:50.44\00:46:52.51
for you to grow that
friendship with Jesus right now
00:46:52.54\00:46:55.11
and the spirit is the huge key
00:46:55.14\00:46:59.75
to a personal
friendship with Jesus.
00:46:59.78\00:47:01.82
This is it. Wow.
00:47:01.85\00:47:04.85
Can God revive America?
00:47:04.89\00:47:06.89
Please.
00:47:06.92\00:47:09.06
One lost soul at a time.
00:47:09.09\00:47:10.63
That's how He's going to do it.
00:47:10.66\00:47:12.23
Through one found soul at a time
00:47:12.26\00:47:16.06
through you and your prayers.
00:47:16.10\00:47:17.57
Don't forget
number two, ask Him.
00:47:17.60\00:47:18.93
Now, listen,
how should I do this
00:47:18.97\00:47:20.30
with my colleague at work?
00:47:20.34\00:47:22.47
How should I do
this with the guy
00:47:22.50\00:47:23.97
that lives down the
hallway in that dorm room?
00:47:24.01\00:47:26.07
I know he needs you.
00:47:26.11\00:47:27.64
What should I do?
00:47:27.68\00:47:30.95
Just ask him.
00:47:30.98\00:47:32.81
You say, I know him like a book.
00:47:32.85\00:47:36.28
I'll tell you do
this. Be listening.
00:47:36.32\00:47:38.49
You'll be surprised.
00:47:38.52\00:47:40.32
How did a younger sister
know, she just did something.
00:47:40.36\00:47:43.39
Can God revive America
with an election like this
00:47:47.76\00:47:54.60
with social and
mental disruptions,
00:47:54.64\00:47:57.74
this society now
00:47:57.77\00:47:59.11
living in disequilibrium
cognitive dissonance?
00:47:59.14\00:48:01.44
Life has been thrown upside down
00:48:01.48\00:48:02.81
and you're saying,
00:48:02.84\00:48:04.18
this is really the
pitiful time to reach America.
00:48:04.21\00:48:06.88
Are you kidding?
It's the other way around.
00:48:06.92\00:48:09.68
This is the perfect time.
00:48:09.72\00:48:11.49
It is when people are going
through cognitive dissonance
00:48:11.52\00:48:14.26
and reality does not
match their expectations.
00:48:14.29\00:48:17.33
So it creates
this unsettledness.
00:48:17.36\00:48:19.13
When I am unsettled,
00:48:19.16\00:48:20.53
I'm wide open for something new.
00:48:20.56\00:48:23.53
Now both sides play
with that same principle.
00:48:23.57\00:48:26.33
Both sides are
going to come chomping in.
00:48:26.37\00:48:28.20
Say, I got
something new for you.
00:48:28.24\00:48:30.31
But you work for Jesus.
00:48:30.34\00:48:31.67
You're one of
those thousands of voices
00:48:31.71\00:48:33.31
that one day
will belt the planet.
00:48:33.34\00:48:35.94
What can I do?
00:48:35.98\00:48:37.41
Well, it's a huge call
to pray for America daily.
00:48:37.45\00:48:41.25
I'd hope you don't stop
00:48:41.28\00:48:42.62
just because we have
gotten through an election.
00:48:42.65\00:48:44.19
And who knows
00:48:44.22\00:48:45.55
whether we're
through that election.
00:48:45.59\00:48:48.32
I hope you pray for America.
00:48:48.36\00:48:49.69
I do daily,
daily, come on, daily.
00:48:49.72\00:48:54.46
These are huge opportunities.
00:48:54.50\00:48:56.10
If a guy could
save Nineveh, my Lord,
00:48:56.13\00:48:59.97
the highest political
officer of Nineveh got saved.
00:49:00.00\00:49:03.07
Why can't the
highest political leaders
00:49:03.10\00:49:04.87
of America get saved?
00:49:04.91\00:49:06.37
Don't put it
past God to do that.
00:49:06.41\00:49:09.24
Go big before going home.
00:49:09.28\00:49:13.98
You got to trust Him.
00:49:14.02\00:49:15.35
You got to believe.
00:49:15.38\00:49:19.05
Well, let me close
with an illustration
00:49:19.09\00:49:20.99
that really did it for me.
00:49:21.02\00:49:23.06
My friend, Marvin Moore.
00:49:23.09\00:49:24.93
It's a good one.
00:49:24.96\00:49:26.80
He says, do you
ever get the feeling
00:49:26.83\00:49:28.16
just kind of discouraged?
00:49:28.20\00:49:31.17
Guy in the back road, yes?
00:49:31.20\00:49:34.17
You are discouraged about,
00:49:34.20\00:49:35.54
hey, how are we
going to reach America?
00:49:35.57\00:49:36.91
How are we going
to reach the world?
00:49:36.94\00:49:38.27
I mean, come
on. How many people?
00:49:38.31\00:49:39.64
One, two, three
and how many out there?
00:49:39.67\00:49:41.44
Oh, he says,
00:49:41.48\00:49:44.65
what I need you to remember
00:49:44.68\00:49:46.11
is when you set up
your Christmas tree.
00:49:46.15\00:49:48.58
Anybody's already set
up the Christmas trees?
00:49:48.62\00:49:50.72
I know Walmart
probably has all of them,
00:49:50.75\00:49:52.39
but I don't know.
00:49:52.42\00:49:56.62
When you set up
your Christmas tree,
00:49:56.66\00:49:58.03
tell me true or false.
00:49:58.06\00:49:59.39
So you got the
naked tree right there.
00:49:59.43\00:50:00.76
It could be
artificial or it could be real,
00:50:00.80\00:50:02.50
doesn't matter.
00:50:02.53\00:50:03.87
You get those lights.
00:50:03.90\00:50:05.23
Don't the lights
have to go on first?
00:50:05.27\00:50:06.60
Yes, they do. Thank
you for reminding me.
00:50:06.63\00:50:07.97
You just start
taking those lights.
00:50:08.00\00:50:10.07
They're off,
00:50:10.11\00:50:11.44
but you're going
to move them around
00:50:11.47\00:50:12.81
and put a little
pinpoint of light.
00:50:12.84\00:50:14.18
That would look nice
if it lights up there
00:50:14.21\00:50:15.84
and then you arrange it on
this branch and this branch,
00:50:15.88\00:50:17.95
you work your way all
the way up to the top.
00:50:17.98\00:50:20.02
And then
everybody loves this moment
00:50:20.05\00:50:21.62
in your home and mine.
00:50:21.65\00:50:22.98
Okay?
00:50:23.02\00:50:24.35
All right, kids, turn off
the lights in the living room.
00:50:24.39\00:50:26.25
Let's go.
00:50:26.29\00:50:27.76
All right,
Judy, you ready to go?
00:50:27.79\00:50:29.69
When I say, go, you go
and the lights are off.
00:50:29.72\00:50:33.23
This dark tree is sitting there
00:50:33.26\00:50:35.36
and Junior shows that that plug
00:50:35.40\00:50:38.73
into that socket
00:50:38.77\00:50:40.10
and the tree is a wash in glory,
00:50:40.14\00:50:46.41
and everybody starts applauding,
00:50:46.44\00:50:49.58
and you take a few bows.
00:50:49.61\00:50:53.65
What happened?
00:50:53.68\00:50:55.95
Before the
lights were turned on,
00:50:55.98\00:50:58.55
I was just one little pinpoint,
00:50:58.59\00:51:01.49
one little tiny bulb.
00:51:01.52\00:51:06.16
But when the day came
for God to turn the power on,
00:51:06.19\00:51:12.27
I suddenly discover
00:51:12.30\00:51:14.77
there are hundreds and
thousands of little lights,
00:51:14.80\00:51:19.01
just like me all around
me, and I never saw them.
00:51:19.04\00:51:22.78
Here I've been
complaining what a mess,
00:51:22.81\00:51:24.61
what a challenge, it won't work.
00:51:24.65\00:51:27.12
God says, just let
me turn the power on.
00:51:27.15\00:51:30.19
Revelation 18:1,
00:51:30.22\00:51:32.02
"After this, I saw another angel
00:51:32.05\00:51:34.02
coming down from heaven.
00:51:34.06\00:51:35.39
He had great authority
00:51:35.42\00:51:36.76
and the earth was
illuminated by his splendor."
00:51:36.79\00:51:38.66
Because the Holy
Spirit hit the switch
00:51:38.69\00:51:41.73
and here hither to
unknown points of light.
00:51:41.76\00:51:47.64
She was in a dorm.
00:51:52.57\00:51:55.74
How many years
00:51:55.78\00:51:57.11
have I been
working with this guy?
00:51:57.15\00:51:58.61
I didn't know He
was a point of light.
00:51:58.65\00:52:02.95
I tell you what,
the best is yet to come.
00:52:02.98\00:52:05.05
Can I just say that?
00:52:05.09\00:52:06.42
The best is yet to come.
00:52:06.45\00:52:09.12
Because not only do we
have the second coming of Jesus,
00:52:09.16\00:52:11.56
hallelujah.
00:52:11.59\00:52:13.40
We have the second
coming of the Holy Spirit
00:52:13.43\00:52:15.80
before the
second coming of Jesus.
00:52:15.83\00:52:18.33
And this planet
has never seen that.
00:52:18.37\00:52:20.64
And you're going
to be a part of it.
00:52:20.67\00:52:22.17
Thousands of you
will be a part of it
00:52:22.20\00:52:24.24
because God has
called you right now.
00:52:24.27\00:52:26.98
Don't you tell
me you're too young?
00:52:27.01\00:52:28.34
You're not too young.
00:52:28.38\00:52:30.15
He's going to have to have
an entire generation of young
00:52:30.18\00:52:32.81
because He's not
waiting for everybody
00:52:32.85\00:52:34.22
to grow up is go now.
00:52:34.25\00:52:37.75
And you're it.
00:52:37.79\00:52:40.22
Oh, my. The best is yet to come.
00:52:40.26\00:52:44.23
It's always that way
with Jesus, by the way.
00:52:44.26\00:52:46.29
If you give your life to Jesus,
00:52:46.33\00:52:48.63
it'll always be true.
00:52:48.66\00:52:50.23
The best is yet to come.
00:52:50.27\00:52:52.50
This is just the way He is.
00:52:52.53\00:52:54.17
He keeps giving you better,
better, better, better, better.
00:52:54.20\00:52:59.47
And the best will
always be yet to come.
00:52:59.51\00:53:02.74
What a Savior.
00:53:02.78\00:53:05.71
What a Spirit.
00:53:05.75\00:53:08.98
Come on.
00:53:09.02\00:53:10.65
We just waved our
hands a moment ago,
00:53:10.69\00:53:12.55
that beautiful baptism of Amaar.
00:53:12.59\00:53:14.59
And by the way, we
had another college dude,
00:53:14.62\00:53:16.06
Michael in first
service, two beautiful baptisms.
00:53:16.09\00:53:20.06
Instead of saying amen,
00:53:20.10\00:53:21.50
how many want to put
your hand up and say,
00:53:21.53\00:53:22.86
you know what, Dwight,
00:53:22.90\00:53:24.23
I want to be a
part of those thousands?
00:53:24.27\00:53:25.60
I want to be a part
00:53:25.63\00:53:26.97
of that second
coming of the Holy Spirit,
00:53:27.00\00:53:28.34
so that when He
hits the on switch,
00:53:28.37\00:53:31.74
that this little point
of light will suddenly glow
00:53:31.77\00:53:34.78
like I've never glown before.
00:53:34.81\00:53:39.18
He's coming soon.
00:53:39.21\00:53:41.18
He's ready for you now.
00:53:41.22\00:53:43.52
I say, let's go with
Him. What do you say?
00:53:43.55\00:53:45.62
Yeah.
00:53:45.65\00:53:46.99
Let's take out the connect card
real quick before I sit down.
00:53:47.02\00:53:49.09
Connect card pmchurch.org.
00:53:49.12\00:53:51.19
You want the
digital connect card?
00:53:51.23\00:53:52.56
Here it is,
pmchurch.org/connect.
00:53:52.59\00:53:55.06
And what will we find there?
00:53:55.10\00:53:56.43
You'll find the word connect.
00:53:56.46\00:53:57.80
And then my next step today
00:53:57.83\00:53:59.60
is I want to be a
pinpoint of light for Jesus
00:53:59.63\00:54:03.17
in my world.
00:54:03.20\00:54:04.54
We all raised our hands
and said, yep, yep, yep.
00:54:04.57\00:54:06.37
Box number two.
00:54:06.41\00:54:07.74
Please send me a copy
of the Great Controversy.
00:54:07.78\00:54:10.45
I want to learn more
about America and prophecy.
00:54:10.48\00:54:12.95
If you don't have this book,
00:54:12.98\00:54:14.45
all I need is an email address
00:54:14.48\00:54:16.25
and you'll have it
this week, next week.
00:54:16.28\00:54:19.25
You got to have it.
You have to have it.
00:54:19.29\00:54:21.52
This is dynamite.
00:54:21.56\00:54:24.66
All right. Box number three.
00:54:24.69\00:54:26.13
I want to follow
Jesus in baptism, Amaar.
00:54:26.16\00:54:29.46
No, he's kind of holding back.
00:54:29.50\00:54:30.83
You heard him
say, "I don't know.
00:54:30.87\00:54:32.27
Should I get baptized now?
00:54:32.30\00:54:33.64
Maybe I'll wait."
00:54:33.67\00:54:35.00
Don't do like Amaar.
Say, Hey, forget a devil.
00:54:35.04\00:54:37.67
I know why don't
want me to get baptized.
00:54:37.71\00:54:40.34
Say yes to Jesus
00:54:40.38\00:54:41.74
and He'll take
care of the details.
00:54:41.78\00:54:43.11

For a book on how
to be baptized daily

That's it.
00:55:18.45\00:55:19.91
You go to that website
and the book that changed
00:55:19.95\00:55:22.58
reshaped my life in
ministry, and by a German,
00:55:22.62\00:55:25.89
elderly German businessman
named Helmut Huabeil.

another moment with you here
00:55:54.75\00:55:56.99
at the end of
our worship service
00:55:57.02\00:55:58.55
to share a special offer.
00:55:58.59\00:56:00.49
We have a new series
called "American Apocalypse"
00:56:00.52\00:56:03.32
at our New Perceptions' website.
00:56:03.36\00:56:05.39
And I hope you'll be
blessed by watching it.
00:56:05.43\00:56:07.76
Given the times of
uncertainty we now live in.
00:56:07.80\00:56:10.30
There's a book I
mentioned every now and then
00:56:10.33\00:56:11.93
that I'd love for
you to have at no charge.
00:56:11.97\00:56:14.64
It's the apocalyptic classic,
"The Great Controversy, "
00:56:14.67\00:56:17.81
the dramatic
story of Christianity
00:56:17.84\00:56:19.57
and the church down to
the Dark and Middle Ages
00:56:19.61\00:56:22.38
into the turbulent present,
and very uncertain future.
00:56:22.41\00:56:26.21
I read a lot of
books on Bible prophecy.
00:56:26.25\00:56:28.45
And by far this
is the most gripping
00:56:28.48\00:56:29.98
and informative.
00:56:30.02\00:56:31.72
So if you pick up the phone
