We are back in the
Book of Revelation.
00:00:31.46\00:00:33.60
Now when we left
off in our last session,
00:00:33.63\00:00:35.86
we had just gone through
some sanctuary symbolism,
00:00:35.90\00:00:38.50
that's what Ivor shared with us.
00:00:38.53\00:00:40.50
And it was good, it was great,
00:00:40.54\00:00:42.77
I think it's going
to be important for us
00:00:42.80\00:00:44.47
though to go through that again.
00:00:44.51\00:00:45.84
I just want us to
get a fuller picture
00:00:45.87\00:00:49.21
of the symbolism
of the sanctuary.
00:00:49.24\00:00:50.71
And the reason why
is because the symbolism
00:00:50.75\00:00:53.65
of the sanctuary
is really an outline
00:00:53.68\00:00:55.85
of the plan of salvation.
00:00:55.88\00:00:57.55
The program that we're
doing is called Salvation
00:00:57.59\00:01:00.42
in Symbols and Signs.
00:01:00.46\00:01:02.32
And one of the greatest
symbols in the Bible of the plan
00:01:02.36\00:01:06.49
of salvation is
found in the sanctuary.
00:01:06.53\00:01:08.36
The whole sanctuary service was
00:01:08.40\00:01:09.76
all about the plan of salvation,
00:01:09.80\00:01:11.47
and that's why it's incorporated
00:01:11.50\00:01:13.03
in the Book of Revelation,
00:01:13.07\00:01:14.40
because the Book of Revelation
00:01:14.44\00:01:15.77
is all about the
plan of salvation.
00:01:15.80\00:01:17.87
And so, if you only understood
the symbolism of the sanctuary
00:01:17.91\00:01:21.41
in the Book of Revelation,
00:01:21.44\00:01:22.78
you didn't understand the beast,
00:01:22.81\00:01:24.15
you didn't
understand the dragon,
00:01:24.18\00:01:25.51
you don't
understanding anything,
00:01:25.55\00:01:26.88
just the
symbolism of the sanctuary,
00:01:26.92\00:01:28.25
you could find
the plan of salvation
00:01:28.28\00:01:29.62
laid out perfectly.
00:01:29.65\00:01:30.99
And not only the
plan of salvation
00:01:31.02\00:01:32.35
but its historical demarcations
00:01:32.39\00:01:34.76
where it lay, how it
plays out in history,
00:01:34.79\00:01:37.49
all the way down on
second coming of Jesus,
00:01:37.53\00:01:39.39
just in the
symbolism of the sanctuary.
00:01:39.43\00:01:41.70
When I think about, again,
00:01:41.73\00:01:44.13
the fact that this
is by divine design.
00:01:44.17\00:01:47.70
It's so amazing to me that
God has implanted in this book,
00:01:47.74\00:01:53.14
you know, and
throughout the word
00:01:53.17\00:01:55.04
we have
elements of the sanctuary
00:01:55.08\00:01:57.61
in different
places, so it to me,
00:01:57.65\00:02:00.48
God is just, He
is so incredible,
00:02:00.52\00:02:02.32
the way He has given
us the plan of salvation.
00:02:02.35\00:02:05.19
Thy way, O Lord,
is in the sanctuary.
00:02:05.22\00:02:07.96
So we can see His way
through the sanctuary,
00:02:07.99\00:02:12.83
and now you're telling us that
00:02:12.86\00:02:15.33
the sanctuary
symbolism is here in Revelation.
00:02:15.36\00:02:18.50
Amen. Absolutely.
00:02:18.53\00:02:19.87
Jason, have a word of
prayer for us and let's dive in.
00:02:19.90\00:02:22.00
All right.
00:02:22.04\00:02:23.37
Dear Heavenly
Father, we want to thank You
00:02:23.41\00:02:24.74
for blessing us
with the opportunity
00:02:24.77\00:02:26.74
to even be able
to read Your word,
00:02:26.78\00:02:30.05
and we ask that as we
study and unpack Revelation
00:02:30.08\00:02:33.31
that You will be with us
00:02:33.35\00:02:34.78
and guide us and tell all truth.
00:02:34.82\00:02:36.82
In Jesus' name we pray, amen.
00:02:36.85\00:02:38.19
Amen. Amen.
00:02:38.22\00:02:39.55
Ivor, pick up
where you left off.
00:02:39.59\00:02:40.92
Get us back on track here,
00:02:40.96\00:02:42.29
we want to get into
the sanctuary symbolism.
00:02:42.32\00:02:44.69
Right, so as we've looked
00:02:44.73\00:02:47.43
at the Book of
Revelation previously,
00:02:47.46\00:02:50.17
we've seen
Revelation broken down
00:02:50.20\00:02:51.70
into various sections.
00:02:51.73\00:02:53.97
If we were to juice that, okay,
00:02:54.00\00:02:57.04
Revelation would be broken
down really into two sections,
00:02:57.07\00:03:00.48
Revelation 1 to 11,
00:03:00.51\00:03:02.71
right that covers
the seven churches,
00:03:02.74\00:03:05.31
seven seals and
the seven trumpets.
00:03:05.35\00:03:08.12
And then from Revelation 12,
00:03:08.15\00:03:10.69
what you call the
seven salvation signs
00:03:10.72\00:03:14.72
from Revelation 12 on
to the end of the book.
00:03:14.76\00:03:18.83
So what we have there is
a picture of the sanctuary
00:03:18.86\00:03:23.63
in the first half of the book
00:03:23.67\00:03:26.70
pointing to the candlesticks,
the altar of incense
00:03:26.74\00:03:31.34
and the table of
showbread, and we'll show that
00:03:31.37\00:03:33.07
in little bit
more detail later on.
00:03:33.11\00:03:35.08
And then the last half
dealing with those seven signs,
00:03:35.11\00:03:38.68
so how does the
sanctuary in the Old Testament
00:03:38.71\00:03:43.15
help us to understand
00:03:43.18\00:03:44.52
what these two halves
of the book are about.
00:03:44.55\00:03:49.06
So let's go back
again and we'll recap,
00:03:49.09\00:03:51.39
just we're refreshing
now with the sanctuary.
00:03:51.43\00:03:53.19
Good.
00:03:53.23\00:03:54.56
And we saw that
in the outer court,
00:03:54.60\00:03:55.93
there was the
altar of sacrifice,
00:03:55.96\00:03:58.23
and there was the laver.
00:03:58.27\00:03:59.83
The altar of
sacrifice is how God forgives
00:03:59.87\00:04:02.77
and that points to the cross.
00:04:02.80\00:04:04.67
The lamb is taken to this altar
and sacrificed with the sins.
00:04:04.71\00:04:07.44
The lamb slain from the
foundation of the world.
00:04:07.48\00:04:10.38
Revelation 13.
00:04:10.41\00:04:11.75
And then the laver
shows us how God purifies.
00:04:11.78\00:04:17.02
Okay, so if you were to take
the New Testament as a whole,
00:04:17.05\00:04:22.09
okay.
00:04:22.12\00:04:23.46
And understand that Revelation
00:04:23.49\00:04:24.83
is the last part
of the New Testament.
00:04:24.86\00:04:26.19
What we discovered
00:04:26.23\00:04:27.56
is that the entire New Testament
00:04:27.60\00:04:29.70
is actually written
00:04:29.73\00:04:31.33
on the pattern of the sanctuary.
00:04:31.37\00:04:34.07
So... The whole New Testament.
00:04:34.10\00:04:35.60
The entire New Testament,
00:04:35.64\00:04:37.87
so think about
it, Matthew, Mark,
00:04:37.91\00:04:39.27
Luke, and John.
00:04:39.31\00:04:40.64
What article of
furniture do they point us to?
00:04:40.68\00:04:42.91
They point us to the
altar of sacrifice...
00:04:42.94\00:04:45.08
Okay.
00:04:45.11\00:04:46.45
Because those four books...
00:04:46.48\00:04:47.82
The lamb, the lamb,
slain, slain, slain, right?
00:04:47.85\00:04:50.85
So those are the
first four books.
00:04:50.89\00:04:52.69
The next article of
furniture, so by the way
00:04:52.72\00:04:55.29
those four books
teach us the lesson
00:04:55.32\00:04:57.56
of how God forgives, okay?
00:04:57.59\00:05:01.13
The next article of
furniture we saw was the laver,
00:05:01.16\00:05:04.37
how God purifies.
00:05:04.40\00:05:06.07
Well guess, well both comes
00:05:06.10\00:05:07.44
after Matthew,
Mark, Luke, and John.
00:05:07.47\00:05:09.17
You've got the Acts
of the Apostles, right?
00:05:09.20\00:05:11.14
And there you have the
baptism of the early church,
00:05:11.17\00:05:14.81
and everything from
there on, from the Book of Acts
00:05:14.84\00:05:18.11
all the way to
Jude is the process
00:05:18.15\00:05:20.95
whereby God cleanses us.
00:05:20.98\00:05:22.95
This is what it
means to live a cleansed,
00:05:22.98\00:05:26.05
purified life, okay.
00:05:26.09\00:05:28.42
So it's like gospel instruction.
00:05:28.46\00:05:31.33
Now, remember when we
get to the holy place,
00:05:31.36\00:05:35.16
there are three
articles of furniture.
00:05:35.20\00:05:36.93
Okay, there is the
seven branched candlestick,
00:05:36.97\00:05:39.83
the altar, the
table of showbread
00:05:39.87\00:05:41.67
and the altar of incense.
00:05:41.70\00:05:43.04
Well guess what Revelation
Chapter 1 introduces us to?
00:05:43.07\00:05:47.24
The seven branched candlesticks.
00:05:47.28\00:05:49.24
Yes, Christ is
standing in the midst of it.
00:05:49.28\00:05:51.31
Christ standing in the midst
of these seven candlesticks.
00:05:51.35\00:05:53.92
So, whoa, if I'm seeing
the pattern then I can expect,
00:05:53.95\00:05:58.39
with the seven
churches are unfolding,
00:05:58.42\00:06:00.49
and he actually
says the seven candles
00:06:00.52\00:06:02.59
which you saw are
the seven churches.
00:06:02.62\00:06:05.46
Okay, well, I'm
making a connection here
00:06:05.49\00:06:07.20
between the seven
branched candlestick
00:06:07.23\00:06:09.50
of the Old Testament sanctuary
00:06:09.53\00:06:11.07
and the message to
the seven churches.
00:06:11.10\00:06:14.10
The very next in
Revelation Chapter 4 and 5,
00:06:14.14\00:06:17.51
you have a scene of
the table of showbread.
00:06:17.54\00:06:21.84
And we're gonna
get into more detail
00:06:21.88\00:06:23.21
about that a little bit later,
00:06:23.24\00:06:24.58
but what you see there
is the table of showbread,
00:06:24.61\00:06:27.32
that throne, that is
where Jesus is standing,
00:06:27.35\00:06:33.29
we're going to find represents
the table of showbread.
00:06:33.32\00:06:36.09
Underneath that table,
00:06:36.12\00:06:37.46
you have the
unfolding of the seven seals.
00:06:37.49\00:06:42.76
By the way, it's
under the seven seals
00:06:42.80\00:06:45.93
that you have the
mentioning of the 1,44,000.
00:06:45.97\00:06:50.91
or 144 is 12 times 12,
00:06:50.94\00:06:54.84
what's on the
table of showbread,
00:06:54.88\00:06:56.34
12 loaves of breads.
00:06:56.38\00:06:58.71
So understanding the 1,44,000
00:06:58.75\00:07:05.52
will have a lot to do
with our understanding
00:07:05.55\00:07:07.92
of the table of showbread,
under which it unfolds.
00:07:07.96\00:07:10.96
So what does the table of
showbread represent again?
00:07:10.99\00:07:13.29
So the table of showbread
represents the word of God.
00:07:13.33\00:07:15.56
Man shouldn't
live by bread alone.
00:07:15.60\00:07:17.07
But it also
represents the people of God.
00:07:17.10\00:07:18.73
Remember we talked about 12,
00:07:18.77\00:07:20.57
how in the Old
Testament, God's people, right?
00:07:20.60\00:07:23.61
So, you know, give us
to stay our daily bread.
00:07:23.64\00:07:26.88
The bread was what
Ivor is saying is that
00:07:26.91\00:07:28.94
the bread on the
table of showbread was stack
00:07:28.98\00:07:30.78
into two stacks of six,
00:07:30.81\00:07:33.05
which is another
interesting point
00:07:33.08\00:07:34.42
because we have 66
books in the Bible.
00:07:34.45\00:07:37.05
So if the bread
represents the word of God,
00:07:37.09\00:07:38.99
and there is two
stacks of six, six, six.
00:07:39.02\00:07:41.86
And 12, they are
representing God's people.
00:07:41.89\00:07:43.73
So it's really the symbolism is,
00:07:43.76\00:07:45.46
it can go on and
on and on, it's rich.
00:07:45.49\00:07:48.16
It's beautiful, and that's why
00:07:48.20\00:07:49.56
when you study the
Book of Revelation,
00:07:49.60\00:07:50.93
it's like, oh,
that's a new thought,
00:07:50.97\00:07:52.30
that's a new thought.
00:07:52.33\00:07:53.67
Oh, 30 years later,
oh, that's a new thought.
00:07:53.70\00:07:55.04
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:07:55.07\00:07:56.40
It keeps unfolding.
00:07:56.44\00:07:57.77
For eternity we are going
to be studying these things.
00:07:57.81\00:07:59.14
And this is why I
believe it's so important for us
00:07:59.17\00:08:01.91
to study the
Bible with the focus
00:08:01.94\00:08:05.11
as Jason brought
out on the love story,
00:08:05.15\00:08:08.72
on the lamb, on
the plan of salvation.
00:08:08.75\00:08:11.69
Then the villains in
the Book of Revelation get,
00:08:11.72\00:08:15.89
have their proper perspective.
00:08:15.92\00:08:17.46
They are second.
00:08:17.49\00:08:18.83
Jesus is first, they are second.
00:08:18.86\00:08:20.20
Our next meet we're
going to Jesus first,
00:08:20.23\00:08:22.36
they become secondary,
and they don't loom up,
00:08:22.40\00:08:25.00
you know, there is a hymn
and the words go like this.
00:08:25.03\00:08:29.37
"Anywhere with
Jesus I can safely go."
00:08:29.40\00:08:32.57
Anywhere?
00:08:32.61\00:08:34.08
Anywhere, fear I cannot know.
00:08:34.11\00:08:36.78
Now, some people say,
00:08:36.81\00:08:38.15
"You know why does God bring out
00:08:38.18\00:08:39.51
all these fearful characters
in the Book of Revelation.
00:08:39.55\00:08:41.25
We talked about that earlier,
because He wants to prepare us
00:08:41.28\00:08:43.49
for what's around the corner.
00:08:43.52\00:08:45.19
But first He brings us Jesus,
00:08:45.22\00:08:46.76
because anywhere with
Jesus I can safely go.
00:08:46.79\00:08:49.79
And so, by the time
we get to Revelation 14,
00:08:49.82\00:08:53.03
which is right in the
climax of the controversy.
00:08:53.06\00:08:55.73
We have a people
who follow the Lamb
00:08:55.76\00:08:58.33
wherever He goes.
00:08:58.37\00:09:00.14
And that's how we get
past the beast and the dragon
00:09:00.17\00:09:03.14
and the mark and the image,
00:09:03.17\00:09:04.87
by following the
Lamb wherever He goes.
00:09:04.91\00:09:06.54
And they are
safe because of Him.
00:09:06.57\00:09:08.54
Yes, in Daniel, you think
00:09:08.58\00:09:10.21
the same picture
is delivered to us.
00:09:10.25\00:09:12.35
And the picture is
then Michael shall stand up,
00:09:12.38\00:09:14.78
that great prince would stand
for the children of thy people,
00:09:14.82\00:09:17.59
and they shall be
delivered everyone
00:09:17.62\00:09:19.45
that's written in the book.
00:09:19.49\00:09:21.22
In Revelation 13 it's,
everyone's going to worship
00:09:21.26\00:09:23.83
the beast except those
who are written in the book,
00:09:23.86\00:09:26.13
so the
connection there is similar.
00:09:26.16\00:09:28.80
So what you have here, you know,
00:09:28.83\00:09:30.50
we just saw the seven churches,
00:09:30.53\00:09:32.53
the seven seals unfolding
at the table of showbread
00:09:32.57\00:09:35.00
and then the seven trumpets
00:09:35.04\00:09:37.11
unfold under the
altar of incense.
00:09:37.14\00:09:39.01
That's Revelation 8 and 9.
00:09:39.04\00:09:40.58
Okay, Revelation 8
actually feud to Revelation 11.
00:09:40.61\00:09:44.55
So those three
articles of furniture
00:09:44.58\00:09:47.52
we saw earlier was how
God sustains His people.
00:09:47.55\00:09:51.35
I thought I've been
forgiven and cleansed.
00:09:51.39\00:09:52.85
How does God sustain me?
00:09:52.89\00:09:54.22
By His word,
through intercession,
00:09:54.26\00:09:56.59
and through His light, right.
00:09:56.62\00:09:58.29
Let your light shine,
00:09:58.33\00:09:59.73
study your word
everyday, pray everyday.
00:09:59.76\00:10:01.80
That's how we are sustained.
00:10:01.83\00:10:03.16
So guess what?
What does that tell us?
00:10:03.20\00:10:05.07
The seven
churches, the seven seals,
00:10:05.10\00:10:07.87
and the seven
trumpets is a Revelation
00:10:07.90\00:10:10.21
of how Christ sustains His
church throughout the ages.
00:10:10.24\00:10:17.08
See, now, here's
the interesting thing,
00:10:17.11\00:10:20.72
'cause when we get
to the most holy place,
00:10:20.75\00:10:22.72
this is where we see,
this is how God eradicate sin
00:10:22.75\00:10:27.42
and sinners,
un-repenting sinners.
00:10:27.46\00:10:30.19
While turning your
Bible to Revelation 11:19.
00:10:30.23\00:10:32.89
Remember we talked about
the two divisions of the book,
00:10:32.93\00:10:35.26
you have one, Revelation 1-11
00:10:35.30\00:10:38.13
and then
Revelation 12-22, right?
00:10:38.17\00:10:40.67
In Revelation 11:19,
00:10:40.70\00:10:45.11
we are introduced
to the most holy place.
00:10:45.14\00:10:48.78
It says, "And the temple
of God was opened in heaven,
00:10:48.81\00:10:51.05
and there was seen in his temple
00:10:51.08\00:10:53.28
the ark of his testament."
00:10:53.31\00:10:54.88
So Revelation 11:19 moves
us from holy place imagery
00:10:54.92\00:11:01.29
to a most holy place context.
00:11:01.32\00:11:04.36
And so now...
00:11:04.39\00:11:05.89
In the context of
sanctuary symbolism?
00:11:05.93\00:11:07.50
In the context of
sanctuary symbolism.
00:11:07.53\00:11:08.90
And so we know that everything
from Revelation 12 onward
00:11:08.93\00:11:12.13
is how God is going to finally
eradicate the sin problem.
00:11:12.17\00:11:16.50
Yes, because
that's what happened
00:11:16.54\00:11:18.47
at the earthly sanctuary,
00:11:18.51\00:11:19.84
so in the earthly sanctuary,
everyday there was a sacrifice,
00:11:19.87\00:11:22.78
there was this laver
00:11:22.81\00:11:24.15
where the priest
would cleanse themselves
00:11:24.18\00:11:25.51
and go into the holy place.
00:11:25.55\00:11:27.02
And everyday
there was an offering
00:11:27.05\00:11:28.38
that was brought
into the holy place
00:11:28.42\00:11:29.75
in the morning and the evening,
00:11:29.78\00:11:31.12
a sacrifice is made
and offering was made
00:11:31.15\00:11:32.65
and there was a
ministry that went,
00:11:32.69\00:11:34.46
took place in the holy place
00:11:34.49\00:11:36.06
for the whole
camp for God's people,
00:11:36.09\00:11:38.13
but once a year
there was a final atonement
00:11:38.16\00:11:40.86
that took place in
the most holy place.
00:11:40.90\00:11:43.10
And that was a symbol,
that was a representation
00:11:43.13\00:11:45.07
of what I was saying
here of the final cleansing
00:11:45.10\00:11:47.40
of the year for sin and sinners.
00:11:47.44\00:11:49.24
And that's what we see
00:11:49.27\00:11:50.61
in the final half of
the book of Revelation.
00:11:50.64\00:11:52.61
That's why the final
half of book of Revelation,
00:11:52.64\00:11:54.28
so full of judgments
and final seven last place,
00:11:54.31\00:11:57.05
and all those finality.
00:11:57.08\00:11:58.61
Is that then the
sanctification pieced?
00:11:58.65\00:12:01.88
The sanctification
piece is taking place
00:12:01.92\00:12:03.52
in holy place, but...
00:12:03.55\00:12:04.89
Within the holy place,
not the most holy place.
00:12:04.92\00:12:06.99
You could break
it down this way.
00:12:07.02\00:12:08.36
Actually, it's a good question.
00:12:08.39\00:12:09.76
If you look at
the sanctuary imagery,
00:12:09.79\00:12:11.59
there are three places
in the sanctuary images,
00:12:11.63\00:12:14.06
it's the court
yard, the holy place
00:12:14.10\00:12:16.33
and the most holy place.
00:12:16.36\00:12:17.93
If you look at the
Christian experience,
00:12:17.97\00:12:19.47
there are three
stages in our experience.
00:12:19.50\00:12:21.70
There is justification,
which is forgiveness of sins.
00:12:21.74\00:12:24.67
That will correlate
with the court yard,
00:12:24.71\00:12:26.88
we're forgiven by the
blood, then sacrifice is made.
00:12:26.91\00:12:30.05
Then there's sanctification,
00:12:30.08\00:12:31.65
which is where we are
empowered to overcome sin.
00:12:31.68\00:12:34.78
How He preserves us.
00:12:34.82\00:12:36.15
That takes place
through the word,
00:12:36.18\00:12:37.52
through prayer,
through incision,
00:12:37.55\00:12:38.89
through witnessing.
00:12:38.92\00:12:40.26
Then there is glorification,
00:12:40.29\00:12:42.62
when we are finally
changed and perfected,
00:12:42.66\00:12:44.66
made perfect in His image.
00:12:44.69\00:12:46.03
And that is the most holy place.
00:12:46.06\00:12:47.50
And so, you could say
that Revelation 12 onward
00:12:47.53\00:12:50.57
is the process of glorification.
00:12:50.60\00:12:52.03
Yes.
00:12:52.07\00:12:53.40
Preparing for
that glorification,
00:12:53.44\00:12:54.77
'cause for the
final glorification,
00:12:54.80\00:12:56.27
which Revelation 12 and onward
00:12:56.30\00:12:57.64
really highlights
is going to take place
00:12:57.67\00:12:59.44
at the second coming of Jesus.
00:12:59.47\00:13:00.98
Now, James, I was going to say,
00:13:01.01\00:13:02.71
what happens at the end
of the Day of Atonement?
00:13:02.74\00:13:04.98
What did the
priest, the high priest do?
00:13:05.01\00:13:08.98
He laid his hands on
the head of a scapegoat.
00:13:09.02\00:13:13.29
And a scapegoat was sent
out into a desolate place.
00:13:13.32\00:13:16.96
Well, guess what happens
in Revelation Chapter 20?
00:13:16.99\00:13:19.79
An angel
descends, and the Bible says
00:13:19.83\00:13:22.53
he laid hold on the dragon,
00:13:22.56\00:13:24.07
but if you look at
the term laid hold on
00:13:24.10\00:13:26.53
and check it out
in your concordance,
00:13:26.57\00:13:28.64
it actually means laid hands on.
00:13:28.67\00:13:31.44
So right there at
the end of the process
00:13:31.47\00:13:34.04
of the scenery in
the most holy place,
00:13:34.08\00:13:38.65
you have this being descending
and laying hands on the dragon
00:13:38.68\00:13:43.49
almost as if sins
are being transferred.
00:13:43.52\00:13:47.39
And that dragon is being
sent out into a desolate place.
00:13:47.42\00:13:52.63
And so what you
have here is that
00:13:52.66\00:13:54.00
entire Book of Revelation,
00:13:54.03\00:13:56.16
go through the
process of holy, most holy,
00:13:56.20\00:13:59.40
ending with the feast
of tabernacles behold.
00:13:59.43\00:14:02.74
The tabernacle
of God is with men.
00:14:02.77\00:14:05.27
That's exactly how
the Jewish year went.
00:14:05.31\00:14:08.44
And so looking at that example,
we can see here is the pattern
00:14:08.48\00:14:13.15
and the Book of Revelation
follows that pattern clear.
00:14:13.18\00:14:15.48
Wow, do you know I
have heard some people say,
00:14:15.52\00:14:19.25
it's sacrilegious to say
00:14:19.29\00:14:21.39
that the sins were
laid on the scapegoat.
00:14:21.42\00:14:24.99
And the
scapegoat represents Satan,
00:14:25.03\00:14:27.16
but supposed to be that
our sins were laid on Christ.
00:14:27.20\00:14:30.43
How would you answer that?
00:14:30.47\00:14:32.53
The best answer to
that question is found
00:14:32.57\00:14:35.74
when you look at a
verse in Hebrews Chapter 9.
00:14:35.77\00:14:38.01
And now Hebrews is all
about sanctuary imagery.
00:14:38.04\00:14:41.08
So you want to
understand the sanctuary
00:14:41.11\00:14:42.58
from a New
Testament perspective,
00:14:42.61\00:14:44.68
you got to be in
the Book of Hebrews.
00:14:44.71\00:14:47.22
And as Paul is
going through here,
00:14:47.25\00:14:49.82
in Hebrews 9:22,
00:14:49.85\00:14:51.69
he explains
something very significant
00:14:51.72\00:14:54.66
about the sanctuary
service of the Old Testament
00:14:54.69\00:14:58.36
for the New Testament believer.
00:14:58.39\00:15:00.56
Hebrews 9:22, you want
to read that verse for us?
00:15:00.60\00:15:04.07
"And almost all things are
by the law purged with blood,
00:15:04.10\00:15:07.80
and without shedding
of blood is no remission."
00:15:07.84\00:15:10.64
Okay, the
scapegoat did not shed blood.
00:15:10.67\00:15:15.71
Scapegoat is no
blood as you can see.
00:15:15.74\00:15:17.45
Now see, I hadn't heard that.
That's the key right there.
00:15:17.48\00:15:20.52
It is the blood of Christ
that cleanses us from all sin.
00:15:20.55\00:15:23.65
The scapegoat
specifically, it was not slain.
00:15:23.69\00:15:27.29
It bore the weight of
guilt, responsibility for,
00:15:27.32\00:15:30.89
that's why it is a outline,
00:15:30.93\00:15:33.19
a symbol
representation of Satan,
00:15:33.23\00:15:35.36
Because he is the one who
is ultimately responsible.
00:15:35.40\00:15:37.50
But Jesus took
our guilt upon Him
00:15:37.53\00:15:39.87
and shed His
blood, He died for us.
00:15:39.90\00:15:42.67
Just like that lamb's
throat was cut, he died for us.
00:15:42.70\00:15:45.14
And that bled
shed brought remission,
00:15:45.17\00:15:46.64
but Satan's, the
guilt that he bears
00:15:46.68\00:15:49.24
doesn't bring any
remission, he is no savior.
00:15:49.28\00:15:50.61
So the actual laying
on of hand's then is,
00:15:50.65\00:15:53.65
it's not with the expectation
00:15:53.68\00:15:57.12
that our sin is taken
away by the scapegoat.
00:15:57.15\00:15:59.69
It's the responsibility.
00:15:59.72\00:16:01.49
Yes, here is the difference,
00:16:01.52\00:16:02.89
when the hands of the
sinner was laid on the lamb
00:16:02.92\00:16:05.86
in the court yard,
the lamb was then slain.
00:16:05.89\00:16:08.36
Right.
00:16:08.40\00:16:09.73
His throat was cut,
his blood was spilled
00:16:09.76\00:16:11.10
and the blood itself
was taken in the sanctuary
00:16:11.13\00:16:13.13
to atone for sin.
00:16:13.17\00:16:14.60
When Satan has
the hands laid on,
00:16:14.64\00:16:16.27
when the scapegoat has
the hands laid upon him,
00:16:16.30\00:16:17.87
symbolically representing Satan.
00:16:17.91\00:16:19.87
He is not slain,
and he is not taken
00:16:19.91\00:16:21.54
into the
sanctuary, nothing is taken
00:16:21.58\00:16:22.91
into the
sanctuary, he is led out
00:16:22.94\00:16:24.28
into the wilderness to die.
00:16:24.31\00:16:25.65
That's good.
00:16:25.68\00:16:27.02
It's your fault,
you've been irresponsible.
00:16:27.05\00:16:28.38
Yes, that's
rich, good, thank you.
00:16:28.42\00:16:30.79
I think that
could answer a quite
00:16:30.82\00:16:33.56
'cause that is the question...
00:16:33.59\00:16:34.92
Key difference between the two,
00:16:34.96\00:16:36.29
and there is no
remission of sin without that,
00:16:36.32\00:16:37.79
so, no matter what you
say about that scapegoat,
00:16:37.83\00:16:40.50
it doesn't remit
sins, or it's not a savior.
00:16:40.53\00:16:42.60
Right, well, that's good.
00:16:42.63\00:16:43.97
I remember in
Leviticus, Psalm 16,
00:16:44.00\00:16:46.53
it actually says, one
goat was the Lord's goat,
00:16:46.57\00:16:50.47
and the other the scapegoat.
00:16:50.51\00:16:52.51
So the question is, if these,
00:16:52.54\00:16:54.28
both these goats
belong to the Lord,
00:16:54.31\00:16:55.68
why would one be
called the Lord's goat.
00:16:55.71\00:16:57.51
Yeah. Oh, that's good.
00:16:57.55\00:16:58.88
You know, it's obvious
that if one is for the Lord,
00:16:58.91\00:17:03.05
then the other which
is called something else
00:17:03.08\00:17:05.32
must not be for the Lord.
00:17:05.35\00:17:08.06
Good point.
00:17:08.09\00:17:10.26
And the process of that
00:17:10.29\00:17:11.99
whole process of
cleansing is super important.
00:17:12.03\00:17:15.56
And I like to kind
of explain it like this,
00:17:15.60\00:17:17.70
'cause we go
through this process
00:17:17.73\00:17:19.07
like everyday in
our houses, you know,
00:17:19.10\00:17:21.64
when you, everyday
you clean your house
00:17:21.67\00:17:25.01
and you put the garbage
at the side of the house.
00:17:25.04\00:17:28.81
You're free from
the garbage in a sense,
00:17:28.84\00:17:31.41
but you know you've got,
the garbage is still with you.
00:17:31.45\00:17:34.52
On one day of
the week, the day...
00:17:34.55\00:17:37.89
Come on. Come on. Come on.
00:17:37.92\00:17:40.92
You will get that
garbage shed out...
00:17:40.96\00:17:42.29
You know, the garbage
one is out to the front.
00:17:42.32\00:17:44.93
Guess what?
00:17:44.96\00:17:46.29
You're going to be stuck
with that garbage, right?
00:17:46.33\00:17:48.56
So that's the process,
00:17:48.60\00:17:49.93
the divine garbage truck, right,
00:17:49.96\00:17:53.44
comes on that special day
and takes that garbage where,
00:17:53.47\00:17:57.41
out to a desolate place.
00:17:57.44\00:17:59.67
This is exactly...
00:17:59.71\00:18:01.04
To the dump... To the dump.
00:18:01.08\00:18:02.41
Oh, I love that.
00:18:02.44\00:18:03.78
This is exactly what Jesus does,
00:18:03.81\00:18:05.15
He says listen, I have
been collecting your sins
00:18:05.18\00:18:07.42
and yes, you are forgiven
00:18:07.45\00:18:08.78
but there is
still a memory of sins.
00:18:08.82\00:18:10.85
When this process is done,
00:18:10.89\00:18:12.72
there is no
remembrance of sins, right?
00:18:12.75\00:18:16.22
So that whole
process again is revealed
00:18:16.26\00:18:19.16
in the Book of Revelation.
00:18:19.19\00:18:20.53
So as we begin to
understand this pattern,
00:18:20.56\00:18:24.13
now we can jump in
and say, okay, yeah,
00:18:24.17\00:18:26.63
this part of the
Book of Revelation,
00:18:26.67\00:18:28.00
this part of the
Book of Revelation,
00:18:28.04\00:18:29.37
I can see the
sanctuary coming out of it,
00:18:29.40\00:18:31.07
and that just gives
you a better footing
00:18:31.11\00:18:35.44
to grasp what's been
discussed in the book.
00:18:35.48\00:18:39.11
Amen. Illustration.
00:18:39.15\00:18:40.48
Isn't it? Perfect.
00:18:40.52\00:18:42.28
And it's really beautiful
00:18:42.32\00:18:44.25
because again the
whole sanctuary symbolism
00:18:44.29\00:18:47.86
of the Old Testament
is being brought to be
00:18:47.89\00:18:50.13
right here in Revelation.
00:18:50.16\00:18:51.73
And in this transition,
00:18:51.76\00:18:53.16
now, I want you to
notice something here,
00:18:53.19\00:18:54.53
it's really interesting.
00:18:54.56\00:18:55.90
In this transition
point, Revelation 11:19,
00:18:55.93\00:18:59.10
you have us seen
for the first time,
00:18:59.13\00:19:02.04
the most holy place
which is identified here
00:19:02.07\00:19:04.87
as the "The temple of
God being opened in heaven,
00:19:04.91\00:19:07.31
and the, in his temple was
seen the ark of his testament."
00:19:07.34\00:19:13.65
And that is the place
00:19:13.68\00:19:15.42
where the Ten
Commandments were kept.
00:19:15.45\00:19:17.35
Which is the same as
the Ark of the Covenant?
00:19:17.39\00:19:19.05
Yes, the Ark of the Covenant.
00:19:19.09\00:19:20.62
Well, the
testament is the covenant.
00:19:20.66\00:19:21.99
Is the covenant. Yeah.
00:19:22.02\00:19:23.36
And, so, we're looking now
into the Ark of the Testament,
00:19:23.39\00:19:26.36
the Ark of the
Covenant in the most holy place
00:19:26.39\00:19:28.06
and we are looking
at the Ten Commandments.
00:19:28.10\00:19:29.73
We are transitioning
now to the final phase
00:19:29.76\00:19:32.57
of salvation history.
00:19:32.60\00:19:34.70
Before Revelation 11:19,
00:19:34.74\00:19:37.34
Revelation 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,
00:19:37.37\00:19:42.84
never is the
commandments of God mentioned.
00:19:42.88\00:19:46.38
They are not there.
00:19:46.41\00:19:48.92
As soon as we get
to the most holy place,
00:19:48.95\00:19:52.89
as soon as we move
into the most holy place,
00:19:52.92\00:19:55.02
we see the Ark of the Testament,
00:19:55.06\00:19:56.39
now all the
sudden we have a people
00:19:56.42\00:19:58.29
who keep the
commandments of God.
00:19:58.33\00:20:00.06
Oh, come on now.
00:20:00.10\00:20:01.43
What are they doing?
00:20:01.46\00:20:02.80
They are stepping
into this final phase,
00:20:02.83\00:20:04.50
this glorification
phase, this final phase,
00:20:04.53\00:20:06.53
this mystery of God
is going to be finished,
00:20:06.57\00:20:08.17
they step and this
took place in our history,
00:20:08.20\00:20:10.11
this took place post 1844.
00:20:10.14\00:20:12.61
So I sense you
could say, that most,
00:20:12.64\00:20:15.51
the majority of the prophecies
00:20:15.54\00:20:17.71
of the first half of
the book are pre 1844.
00:20:17.75\00:20:21.08
And the prophecies that
we're going to be looking at
00:20:21.12\00:20:23.55
by far the large
part of these prophesies
00:20:23.59\00:20:25.42
'cause each one of
them touches on like
00:20:25.45\00:20:27.52
all of the churches
and seals and trumpets,
00:20:27.56\00:20:29.82
touches on the
second coming of Christ.
00:20:29.86\00:20:31.63
And even Revelation 12 and 13,
00:20:31.66\00:20:33.73
looks back at the
history that has already.
00:20:33.76\00:20:36.23
But the point of looking
back is to take us forward,
00:20:36.26\00:20:39.57
and the point of
all this history is
00:20:39.60\00:20:41.00
to move us to the second coming.
00:20:41.04\00:20:42.40
But the primary
emphasis of these prophecies
00:20:42.44\00:20:45.67
in Revelation 12 and
onward is going to be post 1844.
00:20:45.71\00:20:49.68
And it's going to
be point to a people
00:20:49.71\00:20:51.21
who will keep the
commandments of God,
00:20:51.25\00:20:52.58
who keep the
commandments of God,
00:20:52.61\00:20:53.95
who keep the
commandments of God,
00:20:53.98\00:20:55.32
and the faith of
Jesus, and the faith of Jesus.
00:20:55.35\00:20:56.75
So this is how
the sanctuary tells us
00:20:56.79\00:20:59.19
where we are in history.
00:20:59.22\00:21:00.92
Historically,
that's why historically
00:21:00.96\00:21:03.43
you can't apply the
trumpets and the seals
00:21:03.46\00:21:05.59
in the churches post 1844.
00:21:05.63\00:21:09.83
You can't, because
the sanctuary symbolism
00:21:09.86\00:21:11.43
tells us it's pre 1844.
00:21:11.47\00:21:12.80
The sanctuary
symbolism actually identifies
00:21:12.83\00:21:15.14
these symbols as
the holy place time,
00:21:15.17\00:21:17.27
and the holy
place time is pre 1844.
00:21:17.31\00:21:18.97
Absolutely, in other
words the holy place events
00:21:19.01\00:21:21.44
don't occur after
the Day of Atonement.
00:21:21.48\00:21:23.75
Right they occur
before the Day of Atonement.
00:21:23.78\00:21:26.95
So the first part of
the sanctuary service,
00:21:26.98\00:21:30.09
a holy place, the
last part most holy place.
00:21:30.12\00:21:33.52
So seeing that
these trumpets, seals
00:21:33.56\00:21:35.99
and our churches
unfold under candlestick,
00:21:36.02\00:21:41.43
altar of incense,
table of showbread.
00:21:41.46\00:21:43.67
You now know, okay, yeah,
00:21:43.70\00:21:45.23
I can't take the seven
churches and say that's future,
00:21:45.27\00:21:48.57
how do I know that?
Because that would destroy
00:21:48.60\00:21:50.67
the sanctuary symbolism.
00:21:50.71\00:21:53.04
Because it's in order,
00:21:53.07\00:21:55.21
It's in order.
00:21:55.24\00:21:56.58
There is a divine pattern.
00:21:56.61\00:21:57.95
This is... This
is, isn't it rich, Jay?
00:21:57.98\00:22:00.62
That's what I say.
00:22:00.65\00:22:01.98
Yeah, I have to
study, study, study.
00:22:02.02\00:22:05.85
That is so rich.
00:22:05.89\00:22:07.22
I want to reemphasize that,
we talked about checking our,
00:22:07.26\00:22:11.03
like math problem, you check it.
00:22:11.06\00:22:12.79
Well, God has even
given us the feast days
00:22:12.83\00:22:15.56
to show us the same thing, okay.
00:22:15.60\00:22:17.63
So the first four feast
days Passover, unleavened bread,
00:22:17.67\00:22:21.60
first fruits, all point
to the sacrifice of Christ.
00:22:21.64\00:22:24.24
Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
00:22:24.27\00:22:25.81
What's the next
feast? Pentecost.
00:22:25.84\00:22:29.68
That's the Book of Acts, right?
00:22:29.71\00:22:31.85
The next feast is the trumpets
00:22:31.88\00:22:33.42
which are a
warning of coming judgment.
00:22:33.45\00:22:36.15
So we can say from Romans
all the way into Revelation,
00:22:36.18\00:22:39.99
all the way up to
Revelation Chapter 11
00:22:40.02\00:22:43.26
are all warnings of judgment
is coming, judgment is coming.
00:22:43.29\00:22:45.79
Then Revelation
11:19, Day of Atonement.
00:22:45.83\00:22:50.13
So from Revelation 11:19,
00:22:50.17\00:22:51.73
the final feast,
Day of Atonement,
00:22:51.77\00:22:53.74
all the way to Revelation 20
00:22:53.77\00:22:55.10
and then guess what
Revelation 21 and 22 end with?
00:22:55.14\00:22:57.54
The Feast of Tabernacles.
00:22:57.57\00:22:59.34
God is gonna tabernacle,
00:22:59.37\00:23:00.71
my tabernacle
would be with them.
00:23:00.74\00:23:02.08
And I would be with them.
00:23:02.11\00:23:03.45
I would dwell with them.
00:23:03.48\00:23:04.81
Absolutely, so
understanding these,
00:23:04.85\00:23:06.88
you know, we think about,
00:23:06.92\00:23:08.25
I'm just going to
jump to Book of Revelation,
00:23:08.28\00:23:09.62
but really it's an understanding
00:23:09.65\00:23:11.39
of the sanctuary
patterns and those things,
00:23:11.42\00:23:15.19
you know, think of
Revelation as the rooftop
00:23:15.22\00:23:17.63
and the Old
Testament as the foundation.
00:23:17.66\00:23:20.36
If you get the foundation right,
00:23:20.40\00:23:22.10
then the rooftop is
going to be straight,
00:23:22.13\00:23:25.07
secure, but a lot of
people jump into Revelation
00:23:25.10\00:23:28.10
without securing the foundation.
00:23:28.14\00:23:31.97
And so, you got all kinds
of things coming out the roof
00:23:32.01\00:23:34.11
and there is no
rhythm, rhyme or pattern.
00:23:34.14\00:23:38.15
Yeah, yeah, wow!
00:23:38.18\00:23:39.58
It really helps
because what we're doing now is
00:23:39.61\00:23:42.32
we're setting the
foundation that allows us
00:23:42.35\00:23:44.75
to be pretty sure in the way
00:23:44.79\00:23:46.99
that we interpret these symbols.
00:23:47.02\00:23:49.09
And that's what's
important, is under...
00:23:49.12\00:23:52.39
I mean when I first
read Revelation's trumpets,
00:23:52.43\00:23:54.26
so I'm reading
Revelation trumpets,
00:23:54.30\00:23:55.63
I'm going through here
in Revelation Chapter 9,
00:23:55.66\00:23:58.03
I know we are jumping
around a little bit here,
00:23:58.07\00:23:59.40
but this is a good analogy.
00:23:59.43\00:24:01.80
And I come to
Revelation Chapter 9,
00:24:01.84\00:24:03.87
and I read in verse 4,
00:24:03.91\00:24:05.71
"And it was commanded
them that they should not hurt
00:24:05.74\00:24:07.84
the grass of the earth,
00:24:07.88\00:24:09.21
neither the green
thing, neither any tree,
00:24:09.24\00:24:11.45
but only those men
which have not the seal of God
00:24:11.48\00:24:13.75
in their foreheads."
00:24:13.78\00:24:15.12
Now as a new believer,
00:24:15.15\00:24:16.95
I have been studying
about the seal of God
00:24:16.99\00:24:18.39
and that's an end time thing.
00:24:18.42\00:24:19.75
By the way, there are
aspects of the church's seals
00:24:19.79\00:24:22.62
and trumpets
which were all end time
00:24:22.66\00:24:24.23
because they take us
down through history,
00:24:24.26\00:24:25.69
so the last church,
00:24:25.73\00:24:27.20
the last seal, the last trumpet,
00:24:27.23\00:24:28.96
those are all end
time, you understand.
00:24:29.00\00:24:31.43
Okay, so I read
this and I'm thinking,
00:24:31.47\00:24:34.67
the seal of God, Revelation 9,
00:24:34.70\00:24:36.07
this must be post 1844,
00:24:36.10\00:24:38.11
this is the
seal of God, you see.
00:24:38.14\00:24:39.97
And for long time
I thought futurist
00:24:40.01\00:24:42.11
because these
trumpets must be all future
00:24:42.14\00:24:44.25
because this is the seal of God
and that's an end time thing.
00:24:44.28\00:24:46.92
Then I read in
Revelation Chapter 9
00:24:46.95\00:24:49.55
and now notice
this in Revelation 9,
00:24:49.58\00:24:51.49
this is the next world,
that was the first world,
00:24:51.52\00:24:53.25
this is the second
world and it says verse 13.
00:24:53.29\00:24:56.49
Jason, would you read that
verse for us, Revelation 9:13?
00:24:56.52\00:24:58.83
9:13.
00:24:58.86\00:25:00.20
"And the sixth angel
sounded, and I heard a voice
00:25:00.23\00:25:02.56
from the four
horns of the golden altar
00:25:02.60\00:25:05.23
which is before God."
00:25:05.27\00:25:06.63
The four horns
of the golden altar,
00:25:06.67\00:25:08.00
you know what altar that is?
00:25:08.04\00:25:09.37
That's the altar of incense.
That's in the holy place.
00:25:09.40\00:25:12.47
So it's not the...
00:25:12.51\00:25:14.08
It's not, you
got it, you got it.
00:25:14.11\00:25:16.51
Just from the
sanctuary symbolism,
00:25:16.54\00:25:18.31
we have just identified the fact
00:25:18.35\00:25:19.81
that whatever is taking place
in here is still holy place,
00:25:19.85\00:25:22.18
that's still pre
1844 right there.
00:25:22.22\00:25:25.32
So then I had to go
back and I had to say,
00:25:25.35\00:25:26.76
well, was the seal
of God ever talked about
00:25:26.79\00:25:29.06
other than in the end of
time, and I realized it is.
00:25:29.09\00:25:32.13
In Ephesians Chapter 1
and Ephesians Chapter 4,
00:25:32.16\00:25:34.16
it talks about
God's people being sealed
00:25:34.20\00:25:36.36
with the seal of God in
earnest of the Holy Spirit.
00:25:36.40\00:25:38.93
In other words, the seal of
God isn't just an end time idea.
00:25:38.97\00:25:42.27
It's funny because, you
know, we as Bible students,
00:25:42.30\00:25:45.81
one of the things
we often quote is,
00:25:45.84\00:25:47.34
Isaiah 8:16
00:25:47.38\00:25:49.61
"Seal the law
among my disciples."
00:25:49.64\00:25:52.45
And that was way
back in the Old Testament.
00:25:52.48\00:25:54.42
Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:54.45\00:25:55.78
You know, so what we have to see
00:25:55.82\00:25:57.82
is that there
are patterns to how,
00:25:57.85\00:26:00.49
there are laws that
govern how we interpret.
00:26:00.52\00:26:04.63
We don't just say, okay,
00:26:04.66\00:26:06.23
I think this should mean this,
00:26:06.26\00:26:07.60
no we got to figure out the laws
00:26:07.63\00:26:09.50
and then let
everything we interpret
00:26:09.53\00:26:11.77
fall into the laws.
00:26:11.80\00:26:13.13
If it doesn't
fall into the laws,
00:26:13.17\00:26:14.50
we have to push it out
because these laws are,
00:26:14.54\00:26:18.34
you know, they
are what governing
00:26:18.37\00:26:19.74
our interpretation,
not the other way around.
00:26:19.77\00:26:21.98
So one of those laws,
or one of those principles
00:26:22.01\00:26:24.08
that we just talked about
is the sanctuary symbolism.
00:26:24.11\00:26:26.95
Does where we put this fit
00:26:26.98\00:26:28.85
and meet the
sanctuary symbolism?
00:26:28.88\00:26:30.85
Another law of principle
is repeat and enlarged.
00:26:30.89\00:26:34.16
In other words, is the
way we are interpreting this,
00:26:34.19\00:26:36.76
fitting into the
repeat and enlarge sequence?
00:26:36.79\00:26:39.36
Another law of
principle that we're looking at
00:26:39.39\00:26:41.16
is Christ, the
plan of salvation.
00:26:41.20\00:26:44.97
Does this fit the
plan of salvation,
00:26:45.00\00:26:47.14
the outline of
the plan of salvation
00:26:47.17\00:26:48.60
that we've seen in
the Bible, the message
00:26:48.64\00:26:50.07
that's
communicated in the Bible?
00:26:50.11\00:26:51.94
And as we start identifying,
we can call them laws
00:26:51.97\00:26:54.54
and principles
of interpretation,
00:26:54.58\00:26:56.31
it's really going to help us
00:26:56.34\00:26:57.75
to understand the
Book of Revelation.
00:26:57.78\00:27:00.02
It's going to be able to
help us to piece in together
00:27:00.05\00:27:01.85
point by point and
see where things fit
00:27:01.88\00:27:04.02
and keep us from
the error that comes in
00:27:04.05\00:27:07.19
when we just, we don't
have any of that foundation,
00:27:07.22\00:27:08.76
we are not sure what to do
00:27:08.79\00:27:10.26
you know, because,
whoa, this could mean this,
00:27:10.29\00:27:12.03
that could mean
this, it could fit here,
00:27:12.06\00:27:13.40
it could fit there.
00:27:13.43\00:27:14.76
And God in His wisdom
00:27:14.80\00:27:16.60
has put the Book of
Revelation together in this way
00:27:16.63\00:27:19.50
so that if we will take the time
00:27:19.53\00:27:20.94
to understand these principles,
it will all come together.
00:27:20.97\00:27:24.61
It's kind of
like a jigsaw puzzle,
00:27:24.64\00:27:25.97
you like doing
the jigsaw puzzle?
00:27:26.01\00:27:27.34
No. No?
00:27:27.38\00:27:30.15
It is a challenge.
00:27:30.18\00:27:31.51
I hate to say over
though, I know, I know.
00:27:31.55\00:27:33.72
Well, we will talk a
little bit about that.
00:27:33.75\00:27:35.08
I love the
illustration of jigsaw puzzle.
00:27:35.12\00:27:37.82
Now, we've run
out of time right now,
00:27:37.85\00:27:39.25
but we'll talk a little
bit about the jigsaw puzzle
00:27:39.29\00:27:41.59
and how that works in
relation or illustrates
00:27:41.62\00:27:43.76
that the way we
study Revelation,
00:27:43.79\00:27:45.39
the way we study
prophecy in our next session.
00:27:45.43\00:27:47.70
Well, let's just
close with a word of prayer.
00:27:47.73\00:27:49.06
Jason, would you
pray with us? Sure.
00:27:49.10\00:27:51.30
Dear Heavenly Father, we
thank You for being with us,
00:27:51.33\00:27:53.94
as we've been
discussing Revelation.
00:27:53.97\00:27:57.21
