Welcome to the 3ABN
Spring Camp Meeting:
00:00:41.14\00:00:43.97
The Three Angels' Messages.
00:00:44.37\00:00:46.51
Hello friends and welcome
to 3ABN Spring Camp Meeting.
00:00:49.51\00:00:52.91
We have been tremendously
blessed. Can you all say "Amen"
00:00:53.11\00:00:56.18
to that? Amen! The
messages have flowed
00:00:56.38\00:00:59.92
through the speakers and
the presenters here at this
00:01:00.12\00:01:02.06
Camp Meeting, and I hope
that you've been tuning in
00:01:02.26\00:01:04.33
for each one of those.
We have an opportunity now
00:01:04.53\00:01:08.13
to just really focus
on what I may refer to as
00:01:08.33\00:01:11.20
the capstone of the
message of Revelation:
00:01:11.40\00:01:14.37
from the old
earth to the new earth.
00:01:14.57\00:01:18.01
Tonight White Horse
Media's speaker/director
00:01:18.41\00:01:21.54
Steven Wohlberg is
going to present the message
00:01:21.74\00:01:23.81
The New Heaven and the New
Earth. Are you looking forward
00:01:24.01\00:01:27.62
to that? Amen! What a
day that's going to be
00:01:27.82\00:01:29.78
when we are
transported to our new home:
00:01:29.98\00:01:31.82
the new heaven
and the new earth.
00:01:32.02\00:01:34.52
And I know the blessing
is going to be tremendous.
00:01:34.72\00:01:36.83
He is a man of
God. He is an author;
00:01:37.23\00:01:39.33
he has written many books.
His ministry is very prolific.
00:01:39.53\00:01:42.93
And I know that because
he is a student of the Word
00:01:43.13\00:01:45.73
you're going to be
tremendously blessed.
00:01:45.93\00:01:48.30
He's going to pray
just before his message
00:01:48.50\00:01:50.51
but before he
comes to speak to us
00:01:50.81\00:01:53.38
we are going to be
blessed with a trio.
00:01:53.78\00:01:57.35
And this song I
always love when I hear it
00:01:57.55\00:01:59.95
but tonight it's
going to be extra special
00:02:00.35\00:02:02.35
because not only is
Danny going to sing it
00:02:02.55\00:02:04.49
but Yvonne and
Melody are going to bless us
00:02:04.69\00:02:07.32
as Tim Parton is at the piano
00:02:07.52\00:02:09.02
singing the song that
exemplifies what we feel
00:02:09.22\00:02:12.56
about this place: Holy Ground.
00:02:12.76\00:02:15.26
As I walked through the door
00:02:24.67\00:02:28.41
I sensed His presence.
00:02:29.24\00:02:32.31
And I knew this was
00:02:34.12\00:02:38.05
the place where love abounds.
00:02:38.25\00:02:44.23
For this is the temple
00:02:45.76\00:02:50.00
Jehovah God
00:02:50.80\00:02:55.17
abides in.
00:02:55.37\00:02:58.21
We are standing
00:02:58.61\00:03:01.78
in His presence
00:03:02.38\00:03:05.51
on holy ground.
00:03:06.25\00:03:10.59
We are standing
00:03:13.52\00:03:19.49
on holy ground
00:03:20.20\00:03:26.17
and I know that there
00:03:26.97\00:03:31.67
are angels
00:03:31.87\00:03:34.44
all around.
00:03:34.64\00:03:39.81
Let us praise - let us praise
00:03:40.75\00:03:46.69
Jesus now...
00:03:47.16\00:03:53.06
we are standing in
00:03:53.66\00:03:58.40
His presence
00:03:58.60\00:04:00.47
on holy ground.
00:04:00.67\00:04:05.94
In His presence
00:04:09.28\00:04:11.61
there is joy
00:04:12.01\00:04:14.18
beyond measure
00:04:14.58\00:04:18.49
and at His feet
00:04:18.89\00:04:21.62
peace of mind
00:04:22.02\00:04:25.03
can still be found.
00:04:25.23\00:04:29.60
If you have a need,
00:04:30.23\00:04:34.44
my God has the answer!
00:04:34.64\00:04:40.28
Just reach out and claim it
00:04:41.38\00:04:44.81
for child, you're standing
00:04:45.31\00:04:48.98
on holy ground. You
feel His presence here today?
00:04:49.68\00:04:54.12
We are standing
00:04:56.69\00:05:02.66
on holy ground
00:05:03.06\00:05:09.04
and I know
00:05:09.67\00:05:12.51
that there are angels
00:05:12.71\00:05:16.58
all around.
00:05:16.78\00:05:21.82
Let us praise - let us praise
00:05:22.12\00:05:28.12
Jesus now...
00:05:28.32\00:05:34.10
we are standing in
00:05:34.40\00:05:38.83
His presence
00:05:39.03\00:05:40.40
on holy ground.
00:05:40.60\00:05:45.14
Let us praise
00:05:46.98\00:05:52.88
Jesus now...
00:05:53.38\00:05:59.32
we are standing in
00:05:59.72\00:06:04.13
His presence...
00:06:04.33\00:06:05.83
we are standing
00:06:06.33\00:06:09.53
in His presence...
00:06:09.93\00:06:12.90
we are standing
00:06:13.30\00:06:16.91
in His presence
00:06:17.11\00:06:21.01
on holy
00:06:21.21\00:06:25.51
ground.
00:06:25.71\00:06:31.22
Amen!
00:06:31.42\00:06:33.62
Wow! Praise the Lord!
00:06:41.16\00:06:44.37
Amen! Oh, God is good!
00:06:44.57\00:06:47.14
Very good. Isn't God good?
00:06:47.34\00:06:50.01
Amen! It's been
an amazing four days!
00:06:50.21\00:06:53.98
I feel like I'm the bookend
00:06:54.18\00:06:56.54
at the end of an
incredible Camp Meeting.
00:06:56.95\00:06:59.65
This has really been something!
00:06:59.85\00:07:01.58
As I was thinking
about this final talk
00:07:02.95\00:07:05.55
earlier today I thought
about Spokane, Washington,
00:07:06.86\00:07:10.59
not far from
where I live. Every year
00:07:11.36\00:07:14.00
there is an event
in Spokane, Washington,
00:07:14.20\00:07:17.20
called Blooms Day.
Anybody heard of Blooms Day?
00:07:17.40\00:07:20.04
Anybody been to
Blooms Day? Some of you have.
00:07:20.24\00:07:21.97
And what happens... And my
family, we've been going there
00:07:22.37\00:07:24.97
for many years - me
and my wife and my kids -
00:07:25.17\00:07:27.84
in May the flowers are
blooming and about 50,000 people
00:07:29.01\00:07:34.22
come together and meander
through the streets of Spokane
00:07:34.62\00:07:39.29
for about seven miles.
00:07:39.69\00:07:41.59
And it's just a big event for
people that live in the area.
00:07:41.99\00:07:44.73
And as you get down right near
the end of those seven miles
00:07:45.13\00:07:48.50
finally you
turn the last corner.
00:07:48.70\00:07:51.47
And then you go straight
ahead and there's a big sign
00:07:52.43\00:07:56.14
that says Finish, and 50,000
people go underneath that sign.
00:07:56.34\00:08:01.21
Everybody that makes it
gets a Blooms Day shirt.
00:08:01.41\00:08:04.38
And my family... you
know, we're always excited.
00:08:05.18\00:08:07.72
My kids go there;
they pass out GLOW tracts
00:08:07.92\00:08:09.98
to people that are
standing around the side.
00:08:10.19\00:08:12.52
And I just can't help but
think about that final stretch
00:08:12.92\00:08:16.73
and that last road
00:08:16.93\00:08:20.03
heading toward the finish line.
00:08:21.93\00:08:23.93
And my point is,
brothers and sisters,
00:08:25.23\00:08:28.50
that we are heading
toward the finish line
00:08:28.70\00:08:30.71
of this world's history. Amen!
00:08:30.91\00:08:33.14
I have no doubt about that.
00:08:33.34\00:08:35.08
And I don't know if you're...
I think many of you are
00:08:35.28\00:08:37.91
but I don't
know about all of you
00:08:38.11\00:08:39.88
but this whole event -
this whole Spring Camp Meeting
00:08:40.28\00:08:44.99
at 3ABN focusing on
the three angels' messages
00:08:45.19\00:08:50.19
we are
fulfilling Bible prophecy.
00:08:50.59\00:08:53.23
I was thinking about that today
and the conviction came to me
00:08:53.73\00:08:57.57
that what we're doing here
is just as much a fulfillment
00:08:57.77\00:09:02.57
of prophecy as a
baby born in Bethlehem.
00:09:02.77\00:09:06.24
Just as much. And
the reason why I say that
00:09:07.51\00:09:09.71
is because
Revelation chapter 14-
00:09:09.91\00:09:13.55
the last book of
the Bible chapter 14-
00:09:13.95\00:09:17.75
predicts in verses 6 to 12
00:09:17.95\00:09:21.46
which we've been
reading about this whole event
00:09:21.86\00:09:24.46
that there are going to be
three angels that give messages
00:09:24.86\00:09:30.00
all over the world
00:09:30.40\00:09:32.93
right before
Jesus Christ returns
00:09:33.34\00:09:37.51
in verse 14.
00:09:38.11\00:09:40.21
And that's what
this is all about.
00:09:40.61\00:09:42.54
It's about
broadcasting and spreading
00:09:42.94\00:09:46.72
and communicating the
three angels' messages.
00:09:46.92\00:09:49.55
We are
fulfilling Bible prophecy.
00:09:49.75\00:09:51.79
These messages are
going to get louder and louder
00:09:52.29\00:09:55.52
and louder as we get
closer and closer to the end.
00:09:55.72\00:10:00.03
Do you believe
that? Amen! It's exciting.
00:10:00.43\00:10:03.60
All the different speakers;
everything that's been coming
00:10:03.80\00:10:06.67
together that
we've been involved in.
00:10:06.87\00:10:09.34
John Lomacang
has this little book
00:10:10.14\00:10:13.21
that just came out on
the three angels' messages.
00:10:13.41\00:10:15.91
I encourage you to get this
book and to share this book.
00:10:16.11\00:10:19.48
I encourage you to
promote and to share
00:10:19.68\00:10:23.25
what you've heard this week-
end, the DVD that's coming out.
00:10:23.45\00:10:27.29
The music that you've heard
about the 3 angels' messages.
00:10:27.99\00:10:31.76
I was talking to Pastor Bohr
today, and he mentioned that
00:10:32.16\00:10:34.73
his ministry Secrets Unsealed
00:10:34.93\00:10:37.80
they have a DVD
series that goes right though
00:10:38.00\00:10:42.30
the three angels' messages.
00:10:42.50\00:10:43.97
White Horse Media
has a brand new book
00:10:44.37\00:10:46.57
that's about to come
out in just a few days.
00:10:46.78\00:10:50.35
A little pocket
book for sharing.
00:10:50.55\00:10:52.21
It's called God's Final Warning:
the Three Angels' Messages.
00:10:52.41\00:10:56.38
And as I just look at all this
00:10:57.75\00:10:59.55
I'm just convicted
that God is moving.
00:10:59.75\00:11:03.76
That He is working to
communicate His messages
00:11:04.16\00:11:07.86
all around the world...
00:11:08.06\00:11:09.76
and He's doing it right now.
00:11:10.17\00:11:12.17
Prophecy says it in
the book of Revelation.
00:11:12.37\00:11:15.64
It's in chapter
14 verses 6 to 12.
00:11:15.84\00:11:18.44
So as I'm, you know,
winding up... I'm the last
00:11:18.64\00:11:22.08
speaker here for
this Camp Meeting...
00:11:22.28\00:11:24.08
I just want to really
stress to you and encourage you
00:11:24.28\00:11:29.28
to be a part in the days ahead
00:11:29.68\00:11:33.62
of spreading the 3 angels' mes-
sages in every way that you can.
00:11:33.82\00:11:38.39
And support 3ABN
because this whole operation,
00:11:39.03\00:11:43.26
this whole ministry, this
whole Spring Camp Meeting,
00:11:43.47\00:11:47.87
the name of this organization:
3 Angels Broadcasting Network.
00:11:49.04\00:11:54.44
It's powerful... it's powerful!
00:11:54.64\00:11:57.85
Prophecy is being fulfilled
right in front of our eyes.
00:11:58.05\00:12:01.48
The three angel's
messages are unstoppable.
00:12:01.68\00:12:04.22
They cannot... Satan cannot
shoot them out of the sky.
00:12:04.72\00:12:08.72
No matter how hard he tries
these messages are going to get
00:12:09.39\00:12:12.59
louder and louder and
louder until Jesus comes.
00:12:12.79\00:12:16.03
And it's a solemn thought
00:12:16.23\00:12:19.57
to realize that if
anybody who's watching
00:12:19.77\00:12:24.24
these broadcasts and
listens to this whole event
00:12:24.44\00:12:27.78
and who is exposed to
these messages in the days ahead
00:12:27.98\00:12:32.25
if people fight against
the three angels' messages
00:12:32.45\00:12:38.22
they really don't
know what they're doing.
00:12:38.62\00:12:40.56
It's just like Jesus
when He hung on the cross.
00:12:41.49\00:12:43.49
He said: "Father, forgive them
00:12:43.69\00:12:45.03
for they know
not what they do. "
00:12:45.06\00:12:47.10
Those who fight these
messages are in danger
00:12:47.90\00:12:50.93
of sealing their doom
00:12:51.13\00:12:53.80
because this is the
message for the hour
00:12:54.00\00:12:57.51
just like the message
of Noah before the flood.
00:12:57.71\00:13:01.81
That's right.
Here's a quiz question:
00:13:02.01\00:13:03.75
Do you remember how
many floors Noah's ark had?
00:13:03.95\00:13:07.28
Three... that's
right. God raised up a man;
00:13:08.38\00:13:11.42
told him to build a
boat and to call people in
00:13:11.62\00:13:14.59
to a three-story boat
00:13:14.79\00:13:17.16
before the water came down.
00:13:17.36\00:13:19.26
And God is calling us in these
last hours of human history.
00:13:19.76\00:13:24.63
In the home stretch
He's calling us to be part
00:13:24.83\00:13:28.70
of the three angels' messages.
00:13:28.90\00:13:32.24
And when the dust settles...
As we heard in our last meeting
00:13:33.17\00:13:37.15
when the dust settles
everybody is going to be in one
00:13:37.35\00:13:41.15
or the other of two great camps.
00:13:41.35\00:13:44.12
There are only two ultimate
destinies that are ahead of us.
00:13:44.95\00:13:50.66
One destiny is found
in Revelation chapter 20
00:13:51.06\00:13:54.56
verse 15.
00:13:54.96\00:13:57.20
The last verse of chapter 20
00:13:58.50\00:14:01.47
says: "Whosoever was not found
00:14:02.57\00:14:06.84
written in the Book of Life
00:14:07.04\00:14:09.28
was cast into
the lake of fire. "
00:14:09.68\00:14:13.01
And sadly, that's where
the majority are going to be.
00:14:14.52\00:14:17.75
But then the next verse
00:14:19.19\00:14:21.46
says: "And I saw a new heaven
00:14:21.66\00:14:25.63
and a new earth for the
first heaven and the first earth
00:14:26.13\00:14:31.00
were passed away. "
00:14:31.93\00:14:34.74
And that's what
we're going to talk about:
00:14:36.24\00:14:38.47
the good verse,
chapter 21 verse 1.
00:14:38.87\00:14:42.18
So let's pray.
00:14:42.38\00:14:43.71
Dear Father in
heaven, what an honor
00:14:46.55\00:14:49.38
and a privilege it is for me...
00:14:49.58\00:14:51.75
for little me, weak me...
00:14:52.95\00:14:57.06
to be stand here as part of
00:14:57.46\00:15:00.40
the Three Angels Broadcasting
Network at the very conclusion
00:15:00.80\00:15:04.67
of spreading the
three angels' messages
00:15:04.87\00:15:08.90
live, on the
air, around the world.
00:15:09.10\00:15:11.77
What an honor! What a
sacred privilege it is!
00:15:11.97\00:15:16.01
Just like the shepherds
who heard the angels sing
00:15:16.21\00:15:21.48
and announced that
the baby - THE BABY -
00:15:21.68\00:15:25.49
had been born in Bethlehem
00:15:25.69\00:15:27.76
so we are seeing prophecy
fulfilled right in front of us
00:15:28.16\00:15:33.29
that the three angels' messages
are here and they are growing
00:15:34.20\00:15:38.27
with a loud voice.
00:15:39.33\00:15:41.24
Lord, please bless
as we look at our Bibles
00:15:41.44\00:15:44.01
and look at the future
for those who follow God
00:15:44.21\00:15:47.38
and follow Jesus to
be in the new heaven
00:15:47.58\00:15:51.65
and the new earth.
00:15:51.85\00:15:53.72
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
00:15:54.12\00:15:57.52
John said: "I saw a new heaven
00:16:04.03\00:16:09.50
and a new earth. "
00:16:09.90\00:16:11.50
I've been thinking
about this quite a bit
00:16:13.23\00:16:15.10
and I believe that perhaps
00:16:15.50\00:16:19.87
the biggest issue in this world
00:16:20.28\00:16:23.78
that all of us have to
face - everybody has to face -
00:16:24.18\00:16:27.35
the issue of issues
is whether the Bible
00:16:27.55\00:16:31.85
is really true.
00:16:32.62\00:16:35.19
Whether it's really
the Word of God or not.
00:16:35.69\00:16:39.96
I believe that there is evidence
00:16:40.93\00:16:44.23
in the book of Revelation -
in the last book of the Bible.
00:16:45.20\00:16:48.47
In fact, it's in the
verse that we just read.
00:16:48.67\00:16:50.87
There is evidence
that few of us consider
00:16:51.27\00:16:53.98
that really is strong evidence
00:16:54.38\00:16:58.11
that what we just read is really
and truly going to happen.
00:16:58.31\00:17:02.32
And the evidence is
the first couple words
00:17:03.25\00:17:07.89
where John says
00:17:08.92\00:17:10.89
"And I... " What
did he do? Saw. He saw.
00:17:11.29\00:17:14.36
"I saw... " "I saw a new heaven
00:17:14.56\00:17:18.30
and a new earth. "
00:17:18.50\00:17:20.84
In verse 2 he says: "I John
00:17:21.00\00:17:25.11
I saw... I saw the Holy City,
00:17:25.31\00:17:28.91
the New Jerusalem, coming
down from God out of heaven. "
00:17:29.31\00:17:32.98
In verse 3 he says: "I heard
00:17:33.38\00:17:36.55
a great voice out of
heaven saying: 'Behold,
00:17:36.95\00:17:39.95
the tabernacle of
God is with men. ' "
00:17:40.16\00:17:42.69
In verse 5
00:17:43.09\00:17:45.59
at the end of the
verse it says: "He said to me
00:17:46.49\00:17:49.16
'Write... write this down
00:17:49.36\00:17:51.33
for these words are
true and faithful. ' "
00:17:51.53\00:17:54.34
Verse 10: "He
carried me away in the Spirit
00:17:54.54\00:17:57.81
to a great and high
mountain and he showed me
00:17:58.01\00:18:00.68
that great City:
the holy Jerusalem. "
00:18:00.88\00:18:05.51
In chapter 22 verses 8 and 9
00:18:05.91\00:18:10.25
he says: "I
John... I saw these things,
00:18:10.65\00:18:15.12
I heard them. And
when I had heard and seen
00:18:15.32\00:18:18.03
I fell down to worship
before the feet of the angel
00:18:18.23\00:18:20.73
who showed me these things.
00:18:20.93\00:18:22.26
And then the angel said to
me: 'See that you do not do that
00:18:22.33\00:18:25.60
for I am your fellow servant and
of your brethren the prophets
00:18:26.00\00:18:29.70
and of them which keep
the sayings of this book.
00:18:29.90\00:18:32.64
Worship God. ' "
00:18:32.84\00:18:34.61
Now here's my point.
00:18:35.11\00:18:36.75
The book of Revelation is
the last book of the Bible.
00:18:37.15\00:18:40.42
And by the way, did you
know what the world's all-time
00:18:40.62\00:18:43.49
best-selling book is ever?
00:18:43.69\00:18:45.85
The Bible. It's the Bible!
00:18:46.19\00:18:48.66
And the last book of the Bible
00:18:50.69\00:18:52.93
is a very deep book:
the book of Revelation.
00:18:53.33\00:18:57.23
It is loaded with information.
00:18:57.43\00:18:59.90
It is a masterpiece of
literature and symbolism
00:19:00.10\00:19:05.87
and prophecy and history
00:19:06.07\00:19:09.21
and morality and
interconnectedness
00:19:09.41\00:19:13.62
with most of the
Bible is woven in
00:19:13.82\00:19:17.85
like a literary masterpiece
00:19:18.25\00:19:21.62
into the book of Revelation.
00:19:22.02\00:19:24.26
Where did this come from?
00:19:25.23\00:19:27.06
Was this the
product of a man named John
00:19:28.03\00:19:32.60
who wrote the book?
00:19:33.10\00:19:34.84
No! This
masterpiece of literature
00:19:36.67\00:19:41.68
that this whole
event is based on
00:19:42.61\00:19:46.08
did not originate in the
mind of a man named John...
00:19:47.95\00:19:52.55
especially when you
read the book and you find
00:19:53.49\00:19:57.69
that John simply
says "I saw this. "
00:19:57.89\00:20:01.86
"I heard this. "
00:20:02.26\00:20:04.00
"I was told to
write this down. "
00:20:04.40\00:20:06.53
"I fell down before the
feet of the angel who showed me
00:20:06.94\00:20:10.57
these... who
showed me these things. "
00:20:10.77\00:20:13.74
This book is a
revelation; it's a vision.
00:20:15.81\00:20:21.78
It's a miracle! It's a
masterpiece that was given
00:20:21.98\00:20:27.72
to a humble man
by the name of John.
00:20:28.02\00:20:33.16
And you know, all the
speakers that have spoken here
00:20:33.56\00:20:35.76
this whole Camp Meeting -
all these powerful messages...
00:20:36.16\00:20:40.20
messages that we've heard,
and I've heard them, too -
00:20:40.40\00:20:42.94
you know we're
just little people
00:20:43.81\00:20:46.74
just like John
00:20:46.94\00:20:48.78
and we're doing our
best to communicate messages
00:20:49.18\00:20:53.25
that come from God.
00:20:53.45\00:20:55.85
Amen! That come from God.
00:20:56.05\00:20:57.99
The book of
Revelation is a masterpiece
00:20:58.49\00:21:03.59
and it is the truth.
00:21:03.79\00:21:07.56
ESPECIALLY when you think about
the fact that it was written
00:21:08.06\00:21:13.70
by a man who also wrote this.
00:21:14.20\00:21:18.14
Chapter 21 verse 8
at the end of the verse
00:21:18.64\00:21:24.55
says that "All liars shall
have their part in the lake
00:21:24.75\00:21:30.22
which burns with fire and brim-
stone which is the 2nd death. "
00:21:30.42\00:21:33.52
So you know if John really
just made all this stuff up,
00:21:34.16\00:21:37.76
if he was lying,
00:21:37.96\00:21:40.46
you see my point?
00:21:41.60\00:21:43.26
This book of morality
00:21:43.47\00:21:46.43
written by a man who said liars
will go into the lake of fire
00:21:47.80\00:21:52.44
this man was not lying.
00:21:54.08\00:21:56.14
He got this information.
00:21:57.01\00:22:00.02
He saw it as God
Almighty revealed to him
00:22:00.42\00:22:05.22
what he saw and wrote
down in the Bible, the world's
00:22:05.42\00:22:10.09
best-selling book, in
the last book of the Bible.
00:22:10.29\00:22:16.30
Isn't that impressive?
00:22:17.07\00:22:18.43
So when you look at the evidence
00:22:18.63\00:22:20.80
this book did not
just come from man.
00:22:21.00\00:22:24.47
Back to our main
text, Revelation 21:1.
00:22:25.47\00:22:29.28
John says: "And I saw
00:22:29.48\00:22:31.15
a new heaven and a new earth
00:22:31.35\00:22:34.38
for the first heaven and
the first earth had passed away.
00:22:34.78\00:22:37.75
And there was no more sea. "
00:22:38.15\00:22:40.52
This verse talks about
two heavens and two earths.
00:22:41.42\00:22:44.79
The first heaven as it mentions
there in the middle of the verse
00:22:45.29\00:22:50.83
is the atmosphere
that surrounds our planet.
00:22:51.03\00:22:53.70
That's what we breathe.
00:22:54.70\00:22:56.27
You know, the air
that's part of this heaven.
00:22:56.47\00:22:58.74
It's not talking about
where the throne of God is
00:22:58.94\00:23:01.71
it's talking about
the atmosphere around us.
00:23:01.91\00:23:04.71
And the atmosphere
of the first heaven
00:23:05.11\00:23:07.95
in case you haven't
noticed is polluted...
00:23:08.15\00:23:11.32
at least a lot of it.
00:23:11.52\00:23:12.85
I grew up in
the Los Angeles area
00:23:12.92\00:23:15.32
and you don't
have to convince me.
00:23:15.72\00:23:18.13
I've seen a lot of smog in L.A.
Many times school was cancelled
00:23:18.63\00:23:23.37
because the air
wasn't fit to breathe.
00:23:23.57\00:23:26.20
So they said: "Don't
even go out of your house
00:23:26.40\00:23:28.44
because it's just so bad. "
00:23:29.67\00:23:31.27
That's the
atmosphere in the first heaven.
00:23:31.47\00:23:33.04
The first earth that
it refers to is the earth
00:23:33.24\00:23:36.81
that we're walking on...
00:23:37.01\00:23:39.38
that we walk on. When
you leave this Camp Meeting
00:23:40.42\00:23:44.32
you know, when you walk
you're walking on the carpet
00:23:44.52\00:23:47.86
which is on top of the
earth... the first earth.
00:23:48.06\00:23:50.93
This is an earth
where there are earthquakes
00:23:52.13\00:23:55.23
and tornadoes, fires,
floods, storms, freeways.
00:23:55.43\00:23:59.13
Fox News and CNN.
00:23:59.53\00:24:01.47
That's the first earth.
00:24:03.84\00:24:05.87
That's the earth
that we're familiar with.
00:24:06.94\00:24:09.04
But the Bible says
a change is coming.
00:24:10.88\00:24:14.12
John saw a change.
00:24:15.42\00:24:20.06
The Bible says there is
an end to the first heaven
00:24:22.36\00:24:26.59
and the first earth
that we are familiar with.
00:24:26.80\00:24:30.73
The days of the first
heaven and the first earth
00:24:31.33\00:24:34.64
are numbered.
00:24:34.84\00:24:36.20
The clock is ticking.
00:24:36.40\00:24:38.57
We're in the home stretch!
00:24:39.14\00:24:40.91
Amen! The three angels are here!
00:24:41.11\00:24:43.41
Prophecy is being fulfilled
right in front of our eyes!
00:24:44.21\00:24:47.22
Amen! Just as surely
00:24:47.42\00:24:50.69
as a baby was born in Bethlehem,
00:24:50.89\00:24:52.99
just as surely as Jesus
Christ died on the cross
00:24:53.19\00:24:56.12
and rose from the
dead and went to heaven
00:24:56.79\00:24:59.79
and gave us the
book of Revelation
00:25:00.00\00:25:02.46
to His servant John
who saw it and heard it
00:25:02.66\00:25:06.67
and fell down because he
was overwhelmed by what he saw.
00:25:06.87\00:25:10.04
This is all coming.
00:25:12.21\00:25:14.11
God is going to get rid of the
first heaven and the first earth
00:25:14.31\00:25:16.91
by fire.
00:25:17.11\00:25:18.95
A parallel text is
in II Peter chapter 3.
00:25:19.85\00:25:23.35
Let's just look at that quickly.
00:25:25.42\00:25:27.29
II Peter chapter 3
00:25:28.62\00:25:34.40
verse 10.
00:25:35.20\00:25:37.47
A lot of Christians
don't think about this.
00:25:37.83\00:25:42.30
They think about the
fire and many Christians
00:25:44.01\00:25:48.58
mistakenly think that the
fire that the Bible talks about
00:25:48.78\00:25:54.02
is just down
there under the ground.
00:25:54.22\00:25:56.22
When people die they
think that they go down.
00:25:56.89\00:25:59.49
But they don't realize
that the whole topic of fire
00:25:59.69\00:26:01.92
is much bigger than that.
00:26:02.12\00:26:03.46
II Peter 3:10
the Bible says that
00:26:05.29\00:26:09.70
"The day of the Lord will
come as a thief in the night
00:26:09.90\00:26:15.37
in which the heavens... "
Which is the first heavens
00:26:15.77\00:26:19.21
you know, from Revelation,
it's the atmosphere around us...
00:26:19.41\00:26:22.44
"the heavens shall pass away
00:26:22.64\00:26:26.31
with a great noise
00:26:26.51\00:26:29.62
and the elements shall
melt with fervent heat. "
00:26:30.55\00:26:35.89
"And the earth... "
That's the first earth...
00:26:37.13\00:26:39.49
"also and the
works that are therein
00:26:39.89\00:26:42.93
shall be... " What?
"shall be burned up. "
00:26:43.13\00:26:46.07
So all of this that we see -
00:26:46.57\00:26:49.20
even the cameras, everything -
00:26:50.24\00:26:53.98
and I don't think people here
at 3ABN will really mind that.
00:26:54.38\00:26:57.58
You know, there is a time when
they're happy to leave all this
00:26:57.98\00:27:00.75
behind. Amen!
00:27:00.95\00:27:02.72
It's all going to be burned up.
00:27:02.92\00:27:05.15
Verse 13 says: "Nevertheless,
we, according to His promise,
00:27:06.82\00:27:11.46
look for new
heavens and a new earth
00:27:11.86\00:27:16.23
wherein dwells righteousness. "
00:27:16.63\00:27:21.37
The new heaven and the
new earth is very real.
00:27:22.34\00:27:26.37
It's just as real as the first
heaven and the first earth.
00:27:27.14\00:27:30.68
It's just as real as
the earth that we walk on.
00:27:31.18\00:27:35.02
It's as real as the
air that we breathe.
00:27:35.65\00:27:39.05
It is very, very real
00:27:40.26\00:27:43.73
and God wants us to
get ready for the great Day
00:27:44.03\00:27:50.00
of the Lord. And that's
what the three angels' messages
00:27:50.20\00:27:54.14
are all about.
It's about urging people
00:27:54.34\00:27:57.61
to wake up, to get
their priorities straight,
00:27:57.97\00:28:01.64
and to get ready,
to get ready, get ready
00:28:02.04\00:28:06.45
for the
soon-coming Day of God. Amen!
00:28:06.85\00:28:11.12
The great Day of God.
00:28:12.12\00:28:13.82
Back to Revelation 21 verse 1.
00:28:14.49\00:28:18.53
"And I saw a new heaven
00:28:19.89\00:28:24.43
and a new earth. " Wow!
00:28:24.63\00:28:28.50
Once the fire goes out
00:28:28.70\00:28:30.84
and once the dust settles
00:28:31.24\00:28:33.88
and once it's all over
00:28:34.28\00:28:37.91
God's going to start again.
00:28:38.85\00:28:40.68
And the new heaven and
the new earth is going to be
00:28:41.68\00:28:45.25
just like the
Garden of Eden. Amen!
00:28:45.45\00:28:50.69
Wow! I tell you... you know.
00:28:51.16\00:28:54.13
That sounds pretty good to me.
00:28:54.93\00:28:56.46
Doesn't that
sound good to you? Amen!
00:28:57.07\00:28:59.53
Look at verse 4.
00:28:59.73\00:29:01.07
What's it going to be
like in the new heaven
00:29:01.10\00:29:03.04
and in the new earth?
00:29:03.24\00:29:04.57
Verse 4 says:
"God shall wipe away
00:29:04.77\00:29:07.81
all tears from their eyes
00:29:08.01\00:29:12.28
and there shall
be no more... " What?
00:29:12.68\00:29:17.19
"no more death. "
00:29:17.82\00:29:20.76
Hallelujah!
00:29:21.79\00:29:23.26
About two years ago... a
little more than two years ago
00:29:24.06\00:29:27.00
my mother died,
00:29:27.20\00:29:28.53
and it was a very,
very painful experience.
00:29:28.63\00:29:32.47
I was with her on her dying bed,
00:29:32.87\00:29:36.34
and I climbed up on the bed
00:29:37.17\00:29:39.84
next to my mother,
put my arm around her,
00:29:40.04\00:29:43.88
and lay down with
her right on the bed.
00:29:44.28\00:29:47.18
The last thing she
ever said was "I love you. "
00:29:47.58\00:29:52.65
And a short time later she died.
00:29:56.16\00:29:58.39
The Bible says in the new earth
there will be no more death.
00:30:02.56\00:30:07.17
Doesn't that
sound incredible? Amen!
00:30:07.47\00:30:10.71
And it says there'll
be: "neither sorrow...
00:30:11.11\00:30:14.31
neither sorrow...
" I got a text today
00:30:15.34\00:30:19.11
from a friend who's
basically become an adopted
00:30:20.78\00:30:26.69
son in my family.
00:30:26.89\00:30:29.19
He's talking about my dad,
00:30:31.26\00:30:33.23
my 88-year-old father
who's in the hospital right now
00:30:33.43\00:30:37.43
in California. He wrote -
Marvin wrote - "He's trying
00:30:37.63\00:30:42.60
to move his hands
and to take the tube out.
00:30:42.80\00:30:44.91
But they're keeping the tube in;
they're keeping him sedated. "
00:30:46.64\00:30:49.84
Talked about prayer.
00:30:50.91\00:30:53.21
"He's strong... " He
said my dad is strong
00:30:55.42\00:30:57.85
"as he tries to remove
the ventilator. Lots of luck!
00:30:58.05\00:31:00.96
Temperature: normal, 98.
00:31:01.36\00:31:03.59
Breathing: 91-93 on his own.
00:31:03.79\00:31:05.79
Blood pressure: 135/83.
00:31:05.99\00:31:07.90
Heart 84. "
00:31:08.10\00:31:09.43
"Can he take my
call? " I wrote back.
00:31:09.46\00:31:12.57
"No, not due to his
tube... but he can hear you.
00:31:12.77\00:31:15.94
Call me. "
00:31:16.14\00:31:17.94
"What phone should I use? "
00:31:18.14\00:31:19.47
"My phone. " So I called him.
00:31:19.54\00:31:22.98
Talked to... Well, Marvin said:
00:31:23.18\00:31:25.78
"Your dad can hear you.
00:31:26.68\00:31:28.18
He can't talk but
he can hear you. "
00:31:28.38\00:31:30.62
I said: "Dad, I love you
00:31:31.02\00:31:33.99
and I'm preaching tonight
00:31:34.39\00:31:36.96
at 3ABN about the new
heavens and the new earth. "
00:31:37.36\00:31:40.40
My dad's a strong believer.
00:31:40.60\00:31:42.03
And I told
Marvin... I said: "If you can,
00:31:42.43\00:31:44.27
tune in to 3ABN.org
00:31:44.47\00:31:47.17
and hold the phone
next to my dad's ear. "
00:31:47.37\00:31:50.54
And I don't know, dad, if
you're listening and watching
00:31:50.94\00:31:53.54
this right now but I love you
00:31:53.74\00:31:55.31
and God has a wonderful
heaven in store for you.
00:31:55.51\00:31:58.78
Amen!
00:31:58.98\00:32:00.45
"There will be no
more death or sorrow. "
00:32:04.42\00:32:07.36
No more diseases, no more
sickness, no more texts about
00:32:08.12\00:32:11.86
relatives in hospitals.
No more old age, loneliness.
00:32:12.06\00:32:16.46
No more terrorism;
no more child abuse.
00:32:16.67\00:32:19.13
"nor crying... " There
won't be any more crying.
00:32:21.07\00:32:24.87
"No more tears... " except
maybe tears of joy in heaven.
00:32:25.07\00:32:28.84
God gave us tears for a
reason, and maybe we'll be
00:32:30.58\00:32:32.88
having tears of joy up there.
00:32:33.08\00:32:34.98
"Neither shall
there be any more pain. "
00:32:36.55\00:32:39.52
No more pain! How
does that sound? Amen!
00:32:39.92\00:32:43.89
No more bad backs.
00:32:44.29\00:32:46.16
No more arthritis.
00:32:46.36\00:32:48.06
No more sore feet
00:32:48.26\00:32:49.73
or a thousand
other aches and pains.
00:32:50.57\00:32:53.57
And I could give
you a long list, right?
00:32:54.07\00:32:56.67
All these things
are going to be gone.
00:32:58.14\00:32:59.87
The Bible says: "for
the former things... "
00:33:00.08\00:33:04.28
they're going to all pass away!
00:33:04.48\00:33:06.38
These things are all going
to be gone. Do you believe it?
00:33:06.88\00:33:09.88
Amen! I REALLY
believe it... I do!
00:33:10.09\00:33:13.36
I believe it!
00:33:13.56\00:33:15.29
I believe all these
things are going to be gone.
00:33:15.49\00:33:18.03
There is no earthly solution
to the problems of this world.
00:33:18.53\00:33:23.53
No solution... whether
you like President Trump
00:33:26.90\00:33:30.97
or whether you
don't he cannot solve
00:33:31.17\00:33:34.98
these kind of problems. Amen!
00:33:35.18\00:33:37.71
Nobody... nobody can.
00:33:38.11\00:33:40.42
Reminds me of a story
that I heard about a man
00:33:40.62\00:33:44.62
who went to his family doctor.
00:33:44.82\00:33:46.92
And he said: "Doc... "
he said: "my back hurts. "
00:33:47.12\00:33:49.89
He said: "My head
hurts; I can't sleep.
00:33:50.29\00:33:53.23
My heart beats fast a
lot; I'm tired all the time. "
00:33:53.43\00:33:55.66
So the doctor
ran a bunch of tests.
00:33:56.06\00:33:58.73
The tests came back and he
met with the man in his office
00:33:59.33\00:34:02.54
and he said:
"Your heart is strong;
00:34:02.74\00:34:04.07
your blood tests are normal.
00:34:04.11\00:34:05.44
I can't see
anything wrong with you. "
00:34:05.47\00:34:06.91
And the man said... he
said: "But doc, there's gotta be
00:34:07.31\00:34:10.55
something wrong with me. "
00:34:10.75\00:34:12.08
And so the doctor said:
"I've got a suggestion. "
00:34:12.15\00:34:14.48
He said: "Around the
corner there's a school
00:34:15.32\00:34:17.95
and every Saturday night, " he
said "there's a clown that comes
00:34:18.15\00:34:21.36
and performs for the kids. "
00:34:21.56\00:34:22.89
And he said: "I've been there
and this clown is very funny.
00:34:23.29\00:34:25.83
And if you... I think
you just need to cheer up...
00:34:26.03\00:34:28.46
you need to laugh.
00:34:28.86\00:34:30.87
Don't be so down all the time. "
00:34:31.23\00:34:33.30
He said: "Why don't
you go see that clown? "
00:34:33.50\00:34:34.97
And at that point the
man talking to the doctor
00:34:36.10\00:34:40.04
he leaned forward and
he dropped his glasses down
00:34:40.24\00:34:43.75
and he said: "Doc... " he said:
00:34:43.95\00:34:46.25
"I am that clown. "
00:34:46.55\00:34:48.58
Wow!
00:34:56.73\00:34:58.59
This morning as I was
in my hotel in Marion...
00:35:00.13\00:35:03.33
Got up in the morning
and went into the little
00:35:03.83\00:35:08.47
cafeteria there where they
have a continental breakfast
00:35:08.67\00:35:11.17
and I sat down and I was having
breakfast and reading my Bible.
00:35:11.37\00:35:14.58
And I couldn't help but
look up and I saw the television
00:35:14.78\00:35:17.18
set right in front of me.
And the TV was talking about
00:35:17.38\00:35:20.65
a very well-known
chef in New York...
00:35:21.05\00:35:25.19
I believe it was a
chef in New York...
00:35:25.39\00:35:27.32
a man that had
recently taken his life.
00:35:27.52\00:35:29.89
And they were
discussing this on CNN.
00:35:30.99\00:35:33.63
And a statistic
came on the screen
00:35:33.83\00:35:36.26
from the CDC that
suicide is up 25% in the US.
00:35:36.46\00:35:42.04
That suicide is a big problem.
00:35:43.37\00:35:46.01
And what I saw on the
screen it talked about people
00:35:46.21\00:35:49.51
who have public faces -
you know, who look happy
00:35:49.71\00:35:54.42
in front of the crowd
and in front of the camera
00:35:54.62\00:35:57.89
but they are loaded
with private pain...
00:35:58.09\00:36:01.29
private pain.
00:36:01.49\00:36:03.49
And people are taking
their lives these days.
00:36:04.26\00:36:07.00
And probably the biggest reason
is because they have no hope.
00:36:08.06\00:36:11.13
Their hope has disappeared.
00:36:12.17\00:36:15.14
And with all the problems
that they have to deal with
00:36:15.54\00:36:18.77
in this world eventually
it just becomes overwhelming
00:36:18.97\00:36:22.74
and they can't handle
their problems and they just...
00:36:22.94\00:36:25.58
they decide to just
check out and take their lives.
00:36:25.78\00:36:29.85
And I believe one of the
reasons for this is because
00:36:31.39\00:36:33.86
of the false
doctrine of evolution
00:36:34.06\00:36:36.83
which pseudo-science is
trying to convince people of.
00:36:38.56\00:36:42.86
And if you don't
believe that there is a God
00:36:43.06\00:36:48.80
then ultimately you have
no power to resist the devil.
00:36:50.34\00:36:56.31
Amen! That's right.
00:36:56.51\00:36:58.35
And if you have no
power to resist the devil,
00:36:58.75\00:37:02.12
then the forces of
evil and darkness and stress
00:37:02.88\00:37:07.89
and strain become
too much for some people
00:37:08.09\00:37:12.16
and they take their lives.
00:37:12.56\00:37:14.36
It's a terrible thing.
00:37:15.46\00:37:17.47
Your brain did not
evolve from cosmic soup.
00:37:18.93\00:37:24.91
You are far too complicated.
00:37:26.27\00:37:28.88
I was reading another book
called Science Discovers God
00:37:29.08\00:37:33.65
by Ariel Roth, and it says
that amazingly approximately 40%
00:37:33.85\00:37:37.92
of the scientists in America
really do believe in God.
00:37:38.12\00:37:41.69
They're looking at the
precision and the orchestration
00:37:42.19\00:37:46.13
and the incredible complexity
of the brain and the cell
00:37:46.33\00:37:50.80
and the DNA and they're
realizing that we could not...
00:37:51.00\00:37:55.04
it is
mathematically impossible...
00:37:55.24\00:37:58.74
that all of this
just got here by chance.
00:37:58.94\00:38:02.78
We're not here by chance.
00:38:03.78\00:38:05.35
We're here because of God. Amen!
00:38:05.75\00:38:08.62
We have an Intelligent Designer.
00:38:08.82\00:38:10.89
He made us; He
loves us; He's given us...
00:38:11.09\00:38:14.79
He's given us a Bible, which
in the course of human history
00:38:14.99\00:38:19.73
is the world's
best-selling book.
00:38:20.03\00:38:22.66
He's given us the
book of Revelation
00:38:22.86\00:38:25.07
which is the
last book of the Bible
00:38:25.27\00:38:27.24
which was communicated to
a man who says: "I saw it! "
00:38:27.44\00:38:31.67
"I heard it! I was
told to write this down. "
00:38:31.87\00:38:34.81
"I fell down before
the feet of the angel
00:38:35.01\00:38:39.41
who showed me these things. "
00:38:39.61\00:38:42.22
And the angel said:
"Worship God... worship God. "
00:38:43.59\00:38:48.42
God is the One
who can give us hope.
00:38:48.62\00:38:51.96
People need hope today.
00:38:52.76\00:38:54.43
And we can have hope
that this book is not
00:38:54.83\00:38:58.10
a cunningly-devised fable.
00:38:58.30\00:39:01.00
This book is true.
00:39:01.20\00:39:03.27
Jesus is true,
00:39:04.34\00:39:06.47
and there will be a
new heaven and a new earth.
00:39:06.78\00:39:11.31
And this first
heaven and this first earth
00:39:11.51\00:39:15.12
is going to disappear.
00:39:15.32\00:39:17.29
It's going to go away.
00:39:17.49\00:39:19.89
It's going to be gone
00:39:20.09\00:39:21.82
along with all the
pain and all the problems.
00:39:22.02\00:39:24.89
Verse 5 says: "He that
sat upon the throne... "
00:39:25.39\00:39:31.00
the One who sat on the
throne of the universe -
00:39:31.20\00:39:34.64
"He said: 'Behold... ' "
00:39:35.67\00:39:39.47
Which means sit
up! Take notice...
00:39:39.67\00:39:42.41
"I make all things new. "
00:39:42.61\00:39:46.98
Hallelujah!
00:39:47.18\00:39:48.52
"And He said to me: 'Write,
00:39:50.85\00:39:54.12
for these words are true
and they are faithful. ' "
00:39:54.32\00:39:59.39
What will it be like
to live in a new earth?
00:39:59.59\00:40:05.10
Well, let me just
give you a quick list.
00:40:05.50\00:40:07.64
No smog; fresh air;
00:40:08.57\00:40:11.14
gorgeous landscaping;
00:40:12.11\00:40:14.04
beautiful
flowers, trees, mountains;
00:40:16.18\00:40:19.65
perfect bodies;
00:40:20.05\00:40:21.52
Yeah! Yeah...
00:40:21.92\00:40:25.29
I feel like Shelley Quinn.
Shelley, when I heard your talk
00:40:25.49\00:40:28.49
earlier, was it yesterday?
Right before my talk...
00:40:28.69\00:40:32.99
She went: "Whoo hoo! "
00:40:33.19\00:40:35.46
Did you catch that?
00:40:35.66\00:40:37.00
She said it twice.
00:40:37.50\00:40:38.83
"Whoo hoo! "
Praise the Lord! Amen!
00:40:38.97\00:40:44.07
Perfect bodies
clothed in white robes.
00:40:44.27\00:40:48.04
Faces that shine.
00:40:48.44\00:40:51.45
Food that is delicious.
00:40:52.71\00:40:55.42
It says in Isaiah we'll be
able to build our own houses.
00:40:58.05\00:41:01.26
We'll be able to
plant our own gardens.
00:41:01.82\00:41:03.76
We're going to
have a home in the city
00:41:04.26\00:41:05.93
in the New Jerusalem
and a home in the country.
00:41:06.13\00:41:08.26
Amen! That sounds great!
00:41:08.46\00:41:10.13
We'll all be
involved in country living.
00:41:10.33\00:41:13.00
Not going to have any deer
bust into our gardens either!
00:41:18.01\00:41:20.61
I had a garden -
pretty good sized garden -
00:41:22.81\00:41:25.01
last spring... it
was during the summer.
00:41:25.21\00:41:28.32
They broke
right through my gate.
00:41:28.52\00:41:30.29
Ate most of my tomatoes,
00:41:31.05\00:41:32.85
string beans... cleaned me out.
00:41:33.05\00:41:35.22
Won't have that
happen in the new earth.
00:41:36.29\00:41:38.36
We're going to have
a great social life...
00:41:38.86\00:41:40.83
incredible social life.
00:41:41.03\00:41:42.80
We're going to get
to know angels! Amen!
00:41:43.67\00:41:47.50
Angelic beings
00:41:48.67\00:41:51.14
who have been around
for a long long long time.
00:41:51.34\00:41:53.78
We're going to get to
know Adam, Noah, David, Moses,
00:41:53.98\00:41:57.45
Jonah, Mary. We're
going to get to know
00:41:57.65\00:42:00.52
the redeemed of all ages.
00:42:00.72\00:42:02.48
And we've got a lot of
time to get acquainted!
00:42:03.72\00:42:06.49
Lots of time.
00:42:06.99\00:42:09.06
We're most likely going
to be visiting other planets.
00:42:09.26\00:42:12.93
Worship services in the
New Jerusalem are going to be
00:42:14.63\00:42:17.17
incredible!
00:42:17.37\00:42:18.97
Can you imagine
a worship service
00:42:19.17\00:42:21.84
in the New Jerusalem?
00:42:22.04\00:42:23.77
Isaiah at the last couple
verses in the book of Isaiah
00:42:24.17\00:42:27.51
says: "From one
Sabbath to another
00:42:27.71\00:42:30.81
shall all flesh come
and worship before Me
00:42:31.01\00:42:35.52
says the Lord. " Amen! So
we'll be keeping the Sabbath
00:42:35.72\00:42:38.55
in the new earth. Amen!
00:42:38.75\00:42:40.09
Says that "As the new heavens
and the new earth are before Me
00:42:40.82\00:42:44.89
so your seed will remain. "
00:42:45.09\00:42:47.33
And then it says:
"From one Sabbath to another
00:42:47.53\00:42:50.47
all flesh will come. "
00:42:50.67\00:42:52.37
We're going to have
a big worship service
00:42:52.57\00:42:54.90
inside the New
Jerusalem on Sabbath.
00:42:55.50\00:42:59.21
So if we're going to
be keeping the Sabbath
00:42:59.71\00:43:01.38
in the kingdom of God,
00:43:01.58\00:43:03.08
this would be a good
place to start, don't you think?
00:43:03.28\00:43:05.98
And that's part of what
the three angels' messages
00:43:06.95\00:43:09.68
are all about. The
three angels' messages
00:43:09.88\00:43:12.62
are about worshiping our Maker,
00:43:12.82\00:43:15.66
who made everything in 6
days and rested on the 7th day
00:43:15.86\00:43:20.23
and who's going to
re-make everything.
00:43:20.43\00:43:22.56
The God who gave us the Sabbath
00:43:22.76\00:43:25.13
is the Creator who has the
power to make everything new.
00:43:25.33\00:43:30.94
That's part of
the Sabbath message.
00:43:31.74\00:43:33.91
And the God who made everything
00:43:34.31\00:43:37.75
in six days and
rested on the seventh
00:43:37.95\00:43:40.62
is the same God who
became a baby in Bethlehem
00:43:40.82\00:43:46.19
in fulfillment of prophecy.
00:43:47.76\00:43:49.49
Who lived a holy life.
00:43:50.39\00:43:52.36
Who suffered in Gethsemane.
00:43:52.76\00:43:55.06
Who died on a cruel cross
00:43:55.26\00:43:57.30
at the hand of
those He came to save.
00:43:57.70\00:44:01.97
Who rose from the dead.
00:44:02.37\00:44:04.34
Who went to heaven.
Who gave His servant John
00:44:04.74\00:44:09.31
the book of Revelation.
00:44:09.71\00:44:12.15
Who showed him the new
heavens and the new earth
00:44:12.55\00:44:17.95
after the lake of fire.
00:44:18.45\00:44:20.36
Who showed him a world
where there was no more death
00:44:22.36\00:44:28.06
or sorrow or suffering or pain.
00:44:28.26\00:44:31.27
Who showed him the
Holy City: the New Jerusalem
00:44:34.84\00:44:39.54
coming down from
God out of heaven.
00:44:39.74\00:44:42.68
Can you imagine
meeting in the New Jerusalem?
00:44:43.18\00:44:47.25
That'll be quite a Camp Meeting!
00:44:47.45\00:44:49.52
Amen! Wow!
00:44:49.72\00:44:51.52
will give special music.
00:44:51.72\00:44:57.69
144,000 choir!
00:44:59.86\00:45:02.26
I used to listen to a song
and I still remember the words.
00:45:06.94\00:45:10.44
I haven't heard it for a while.
00:45:10.64\00:45:12.07
But the words say:
"I want to go home.
00:45:12.27\00:45:15.68
I want to sing with the angels.
00:45:16.08\00:45:19.11
I want to talk to the prophets.
00:45:19.51\00:45:22.05
I want to live in the land
where we'll never grow old. "
00:45:22.65\00:45:27.32
Can you imagine?
00:45:28.92\00:45:30.69
We can't even
imagine having a perfect body
00:45:31.19\00:45:36.77
and being with people
00:45:37.53\00:45:40.67
from all ages and
knowing - knowing -
00:45:42.57\00:45:46.34
that we are never going to die.
00:45:46.54\00:45:50.18
You know, now in this
life we just have to prepare
00:45:51.75\00:45:55.98
for the inevitable. My
dad who's in the hospital
00:45:56.18\00:45:58.55
is 88 years old. He knows
he's going to die at some point.
00:45:58.75\00:46:02.06
You know, he's accepted that.
00:46:02.46\00:46:04.83
He's a strong believer in Jesus.
00:46:05.03\00:46:06.73
And he says to
me, he said: "Steve,
00:46:07.13\00:46:09.76
I just want to finish well. "
00:46:09.96\00:46:11.93
"I want to finish strong. "
00:46:13.37\00:46:15.00
Finish strong. And
I've come to the conclusion
00:46:15.70\00:46:19.04
that if time should go on
or something were to happen
00:46:19.24\00:46:22.68
to me, go on long enough
or something happens to me
00:46:22.88\00:46:25.48
I'm going to die
one of these days
00:46:25.68\00:46:27.42
just like everybody else dies.
00:46:27.62\00:46:29.38
And I've decided if I
do die I want to die well.
00:46:29.58\00:46:32.95
I want to be among that group
00:46:33.72\00:46:35.49
that Bro. Wintley
spoke of the other day.
00:46:35.69\00:46:38.86
Said: "Blessed are the
dead who die in the Lord - Amen!
00:46:39.06\00:46:43.97
from this time forth. " And
that's the verse right after
00:46:44.17\00:46:47.54
the three angels' messages.
00:46:47.70\00:46:49.97
And it's talking...
The context is those
00:46:50.37\00:46:53.14
who die in the message.
00:46:53.34\00:46:55.71
Those who die
believing in Jesus:
00:46:56.21\00:46:58.75
their works follow
them. They've done their best.
00:46:58.95\00:47:01.25
They've done their part
to share the Word of God
00:47:01.45\00:47:05.59
and the three angels' messages.
00:47:05.79\00:47:08.19
That's what 3ABN's all about.
00:47:08.86\00:47:10.73
That's what Secrets
Unsealed's all about.
00:47:10.93\00:47:12.46
That's what White
Horse Media's all about.
00:47:12.66\00:47:14.56
That's what
Amazing Facts is all about.
00:47:14.76\00:47:16.43
There's a whole of of
other ministries out there
00:47:16.83\00:47:19.17
that are doing their part
00:47:19.57\00:47:21.34
and preparing
messages on the three angels.
00:47:21.74\00:47:24.11
This is going to get
bigger and bigger and bigger
00:47:24.31\00:47:26.47
and bigger until the whole earth
is lightened with its glory.
00:47:26.68\00:47:29.34
The devil can't stop it. Amen!
You know, and we're not perfect.
00:47:29.54\00:47:34.35
I mean, I'm not
perfect. Hallelujah!
00:47:34.55\00:47:36.65
The speakers up
here aren't perfect.
00:47:36.85\00:47:39.75
3ABN's not perfect.
00:47:40.76\00:47:42.49
You know, we all make mistakes,
00:47:42.89\00:47:44.36
but God can use
weak people to fulfill
00:47:44.56\00:47:48.86
His sure word of prophecy.
00:47:49.06\00:47:51.80
Amen! And He's going to do it.
00:47:52.00\00:47:53.64
And He IS doing it.
00:47:53.84\00:47:55.64
And He's doing it right now!
00:47:55.84\00:47:58.11
Amen! Right in
front of our eyes.
00:47:58.31\00:48:00.44
Amen! And we're part of it.
00:48:00.64\00:48:02.64
And the end is... the
finish line is in sight!
00:48:03.04\00:48:06.05
We're goin' home!
00:48:07.22\00:48:08.82
Amen! It's not going to be long.
00:48:09.02\00:48:11.35
Hallelujah!
00:48:11.75\00:48:13.25
Hallelujah!
00:48:14.19\00:48:15.52
Verse 6... verse
6: "He said to me
00:48:15.62\00:48:20.46
'It is done. ' " These
are the words of Jesus.
00:48:20.66\00:48:23.67
"I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end
00:48:23.87\00:48:26.33
and I will give to
him that is thirsty
00:48:26.74\00:48:29.84
of the fountain of the
water of life freely. "
00:48:30.04\00:48:32.67
Whoever you are,
whatever you've done,
00:48:34.71\00:48:36.75
however bad you've been,
00:48:36.95\00:48:38.71
Jesus loves you and He's
offering you the water of life
00:48:39.85\00:48:44.05
freely... freely.
00:48:44.25\00:48:48.12
He says: "I'm
offering it to you as a gift. "
00:48:48.32\00:48:51.69
Jesus wants you... He wants me.
00:48:52.09\00:48:55.90
He wants us all.
00:48:56.30\00:48:58.43
Verse 7 says: "He that overcomes
00:48:59.60\00:49:03.14
shall inherit all things.
00:49:03.34\00:49:05.77
And I will be his God
and he shall be My son. "
00:49:05.97\00:49:10.55
Brothers and sisters,
we've got some overcoming to do.
00:49:12.55\00:49:15.32
Don't be fooled about that.
00:49:17.15\00:49:18.79
Elder Gallimore
talked about that.
00:49:19.19\00:49:20.99
We have some
overcoming that we need to do.
00:49:21.19\00:49:24.79
Jesus said it right there.
00:49:24.99\00:49:26.33
"He who overcomes... "
What do we need to overcome?
00:49:26.53\00:49:30.10
Verse 8 gives us a list.
00:49:31.03\00:49:33.34
"But the fearful... "
Fearful means we're too afraid
00:49:34.37\00:49:38.94
to stand up for what's right.
00:49:39.34\00:49:41.54
"the unbelieving... "
which means people in spite of
00:49:43.04\00:49:47.02
all the evidence
they persistently refuse
00:49:47.22\00:49:52.82
to believe in the Word of God.
00:49:53.02\00:49:56.59
"the unbelieving,
the abominable... "
00:49:57.69\00:50:00.20
There are things that are
popular in this generation
00:50:00.40\00:50:03.00
which to God are abominable.
00:50:03.20\00:50:05.83
"murderers... " And I
would apply that to the born
00:50:07.94\00:50:12.67
and the unborn.
00:50:12.87\00:50:14.44
"whoremongers... "
That's sexual immoralities.
00:50:15.48\00:50:18.91
"sorcerers and
idolaters and all the liars:
00:50:19.11\00:50:23.59
they will have their part in
the lake which burns with fire
00:50:23.79\00:50:27.06
and brimstone which
is the second death. "
00:50:27.26\00:50:30.66
These are things
we need to overcome.
00:50:31.43\00:50:33.73
If these things
are strangling us,
00:50:34.23\00:50:36.26
we need strength and
grace and power and forgiveness
00:50:36.46\00:50:40.40
from Jesus to
overcome these things.
00:50:40.60\00:50:44.14
Recently in my back
yard an apple tree died
00:50:44.34\00:50:47.51
and I finally cut it down.
00:50:47.91\00:50:49.71
And then just within the
last week I saw some new growth
00:50:49.91\00:50:54.68
coming from the root system.
00:50:55.45\00:50:57.52
And I told my kids about that
- Seth and Abby - and I said:
00:50:57.72\00:51:00.62
"Can we learn some
lessons from that? "
00:51:01.22\00:51:03.26
And Seth said - he's
almost 14- he said: "Dad,
00:51:03.66\00:51:06.36
yeah we can learn a lesson that
sometimes God has to cut us down
00:51:06.56\00:51:09.70
before some new growth starts. "
00:51:09.90\00:51:12.93
I thought: "Wow! Praise the
Lord! My son's teaching me! "
00:51:14.14\00:51:17.97
God wants to cut these
things out of our lives.
00:51:20.21\00:51:24.35
You know, these
things are wrong.
00:51:24.85\00:51:26.88
They're bad, and He
wants to cut them out of us.
00:51:27.08\00:51:30.62
And now's the time
for Him to do that.
00:51:30.82\00:51:33.29
As we near to a close
00:51:34.36\00:51:36.19
go back to Revelation 21.
00:51:37.36\00:51:39.66
It's talking
about the New Jerusalem.
00:51:40.16\00:51:41.83
You know, I would encourage
you to read this chapter.
00:51:42.03\00:51:44.37
If you're struggling
with faith, read this chapter
00:51:44.57\00:51:47.30
and read it again and read
it again and read it again.
00:51:47.50\00:51:49.74
Just keep reading it...
it will build your faith.
00:51:49.94\00:51:52.17
At the end of verse 23 it talks
about inside the New Jerusalem.
00:51:53.38\00:51:58.41
It says: "The
Lamb is its light. "
00:51:58.61\00:52:01.35
"The Lamb is its light. "
00:52:02.58\00:52:04.75
"The city had no need of
the sun nor the moon to shine
00:52:07.12\00:52:09.99
in it for the glory
of God did lighten it
00:52:10.19\00:52:12.09
and the Lamb is its light.
00:52:12.29\00:52:13.70
The nations of those who are
saved shall walk in the light
00:52:13.90\00:52:16.10
of it. The kings of the
earth shall bring their glory
00:52:16.30\00:52:18.60
and honor into it, and the
gates of it shall not be shut
00:52:18.80\00:52:21.30
at all by day for there
shall be no night there.
00:52:21.50\00:52:23.61
And they shall bring their
glory and honor of the nations
00:52:23.81\00:52:26.98
into it, and there
shall in no wise enter into it
00:52:27.18\00:52:29.94
anything that defiles, neither
whatever works an abomination
00:52:30.15\00:52:33.82
or makes a lie, but
they that are written in... "
00:52:34.02\00:52:37.35
Whose book? "In the
Lamb's Book of Life. "
00:52:37.55\00:52:42.32
Brothers and sisters,
00:52:42.72\00:52:44.23
the center of
heaven and of the new earth
00:52:44.43\00:52:48.20
and of the New
Jerusalem is one person,
00:52:48.40\00:52:51.43
and that one person is The Lamb.
00:52:51.93\00:52:56.24
It's the Lord Jesus Christ.
00:52:56.64\00:53:00.08
The Lamb is its light.
00:53:00.28\00:53:02.01
Heaven is not just about going
to heaven and floating around
00:53:02.21\00:53:06.08
on a cloud and fat
babies playing harps.
00:53:06.28\00:53:08.82
You know, this is not
what the Bible describes
00:53:09.78\00:53:13.32
as heaven and the new earth.
00:53:13.52\00:53:15.26
It's a real
place with a real city.
00:53:15.76\00:53:18.49
It's a real world
with real relationships
00:53:18.69\00:53:21.46
with real angels
with a real future
00:53:21.66\00:53:24.40
with real
activities with real food.
00:53:24.60\00:53:27.50
With no pain and in
the middle of it all
00:53:28.10\00:53:32.14
in the middle of everything
the center, the star of the show
00:53:33.48\00:53:39.38
is the Lord Jesus Christ,
00:53:42.68\00:53:48.02
the Lamb who sacrificed Himself
00:53:48.22\00:53:52.59
on a cruel cross for
your sins and my sins...
00:53:52.79\00:53:58.67
for the sins of the whole world.
00:53:59.27\00:54:01.90
And the only
remaining mark of sin
00:54:03.91\00:54:08.11
in eternity is going
to be those nail scars:
00:54:08.31\00:54:13.11
the scars in His
hands, scars in His head,
00:54:13.31\00:54:16.12
the scars on His feet.
00:54:16.32\00:54:18.35
And we are all going to bow down
00:54:18.55\00:54:21.76
with joy and we are going
to... "Every knee shall bow
00:54:21.96\00:54:27.16
and every tongue shall confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord
00:54:27.36\00:54:31.47
to the glory of
God the Father. "
00:54:31.67\00:54:36.00
Jesus is what we
have to look forward to.
00:54:37.14\00:54:41.61
And no matter what
we're going through right now
00:54:42.01\00:54:44.55
brothers and sisters
He can bring us through.
00:54:44.75\00:54:48.32
His grace is sufficient for us.
00:54:48.82\00:54:52.55
For you! His
power is made perfect
00:54:52.75\00:54:56.49
in your weakness.
Realize you're weak.
00:54:56.69\00:54:59.69
Let the Lord cut
you down if He has to.
00:54:59.89\00:55:02.76
Get on your knees;
give your life to Jesus
00:55:02.96\00:55:04.97
and say: "Lord, I trust in You.
00:55:05.17\00:55:06.77
Get me out of here. "
00:55:06.97\00:55:08.30
"Get me out of here. "
00:55:08.60\00:55:10.27
And Jesus can do
it... He can do it!
00:55:11.17\00:55:15.11
He brought me through a
terrible crisis last summer
00:55:15.51\00:55:18.08
and I know He's with me now
and He'll be with me to the end.
00:55:18.28\00:55:22.95
Amen! And He'll be with you.
00:55:23.15\00:55:24.49
When my son Seth was
about three years old
00:55:24.62\00:55:26.89
we had just moved out of
California into the north Idaho
00:55:27.09\00:55:30.83
area and one day I was
pulling him on a little sled
00:55:30.99\00:55:35.56
through the streets
where there was snow everywhere
00:55:36.06\00:55:38.40
and there were big
piles from the snow plow.
00:55:38.80\00:55:41.54
And Seth was just a little guy
and he looked at the big pile
00:55:41.74\00:55:45.81
of snow on the side of
the road from the snow plow
00:55:46.01\00:55:47.84
and he said: "Daddy,
00:55:48.04\00:55:50.58
if I were to fall...
" Maybe he was four...
00:55:50.78\00:55:52.51
"If I were to fall into
that snow and go down, "
00:55:52.71\00:55:55.58
he said, "you would
just leave me, right? "
00:55:55.78\00:55:57.42
And I said: "No,
Seth, I wouldn't leave you.
00:55:59.12\00:56:01.72
I would dig you out. "
00:56:02.12\00:56:03.86
And he said: "Daddy, what
if you didn't have a shovel? "
00:56:04.53\00:56:09.30
And without a thought
- I don't know why kids
00:56:10.57\00:56:13.27
say some things -
without a thought I said:
00:56:13.47\00:56:15.64
"Seth, if I
didn't have a shovel,
00:56:15.84\00:56:18.21
I would dig you
out with my bare hands
00:56:18.41\00:56:22.28
because I love
you. " "I love you! "
00:56:22.68\00:56:25.38
And brothers and
sisters, that's what Jesus did.
00:56:25.88\00:56:29.25
He came down from heaven
00:56:29.65\00:56:31.35
and with His own
hands nailed to a cross
00:56:31.55\00:56:36.49
He dug us out.
00:56:36.89\00:56:38.66
He paid for our
sins with His own blood.
00:56:38.86\00:56:43.53
And He's going to
dig us out of this world
00:56:43.73\00:56:46.94
and He's going to get us to
a new heaven and a new earth
00:56:47.14\00:56:50.61
where it's going to be
more fantastic, more fabulous,
00:56:50.81\00:56:53.14
more amazing than anything we
can ever even possibly imagine.
00:56:53.34\00:56:59.08
So on this last
night of Camp Meeting
00:56:59.28\00:57:02.35
I want to
encourage you: don't give up.
00:57:02.55\00:57:05.49
We're in the home stretch.
00:57:06.49\00:57:08.52
The three angels'
messages are here!
00:57:08.92\00:57:11.39
Amen! Prophecy
is being fulfilled.
00:57:11.59\00:57:13.93
Jesus is coming.
00:57:14.43\00:57:16.36
God's going to get rid of sin.
00:57:16.87\00:57:18.83
He's going to
create a perfect world
00:57:19.03\00:57:21.14
and He wants you and He wants me
00:57:21.54\00:57:25.34
to be there and to be with
Him forever and ever and ever.
00:57:25.54\00:57:31.51
Amen!
00:57:31.71\00:57:33.05
