This is truly the best part of the book of Revelation, 00:00:29.52\00:00:33.09 there is so much here... 00:00:33.16\00:00:34.53 layer after layer after layer of truth 00:00:34.56\00:00:36.26 and the reason why it's so important, I think, 00:00:36.30\00:00:38.30 for us to be able to see the truth here is because 00:00:38.33\00:00:40.34 God is warning us about deception... 00:00:40.37\00:00:42.24 deception is huge in the book of Revelation 00:00:42.27\00:00:45.91 and the warning against it comes again and again and again 00:00:45.94\00:00:50.15 and that's what we see here in Revelation chapter 12, 00:00:50.18\00:00:51.98 we've got the symbols of the woman, 00:00:52.01\00:00:54.45 we've got the dragon, 00:00:54.48\00:00:55.82 we've got the "white" that the woman is clothed in, 00:00:55.85\00:00:58.45 all taking us back to Genesis and the first deception 00:00:58.49\00:01:00.99 that was played on us there with Eve 00:01:01.02\00:01:04.03 and then... we go all the way back to heaven, 00:01:04.06\00:01:07.06 it all began in heaven... 00:01:07.10\00:01:08.96 the war began in heaven... what kind of war was it? 00:01:09.00\00:01:11.23 Well, let's pick up with that after we have a word of prayer, 00:01:11.27\00:01:14.20 let's pick up with what kind of war it was. 00:01:14.24\00:01:15.87 Jason, pray for us, please. 00:01:15.90\00:01:17.24 Jason: Sure, "Dear Heavenly Father, 00:01:17.27\00:01:18.67 as we dive deeper and deeper into Revelation, 00:01:18.71\00:01:21.41 we ask that you would pour out your Holy Spirit 00:01:21.44\00:01:24.01 so that we may understand fully what we are reading 00:01:24.05\00:01:26.92 and please be with our Viewers and Listeners as well, 00:01:26.98\00:01:29.82 in Jesus' name we pray, amen. " All: "Amen. " 00:01:29.85\00:01:32.89 We know it wasn't a war of tanks and guns... 00:01:32.92\00:01:35.19 because heaven is much more sophisticated than that, 00:01:35.22\00:01:39.09 I mean, at the very least it would be lasers or some kind of 00:01:39.13\00:01:43.06 technology that is just far beyond us 00:01:43.10\00:01:45.30 but it's pretty clear from the Bible 00:01:45.33\00:01:49.17 that it was a war of words. 00:01:49.20\00:01:50.54 All: Hmmm... hmmm... 00:01:50.57\00:01:51.91 James: War is something that we think of 00:01:51.94\00:01:55.11 in relation to military might and fire power 00:01:55.14\00:01:58.71 but the word actually is polemos 00:01:58.75\00:02:01.25 and that word is connected with 00:02:01.28\00:02:03.45 the word that we use for politics 00:02:03.49\00:02:05.62 Yvonne: Hmmm... 00:02:05.65\00:02:07.02 James: It was a political war, it was a war that had to do with 00:02:07.06\00:02:11.89 with strategy... with communications 00:02:11.93\00:02:15.23 the Bible indicates... in the Old Testament 00:02:15.26\00:02:17.83 that Satan himself 00:02:17.87\00:02:19.20 was a merchandiser of words against God 00:02:19.23\00:02:23.17 that iniquity was found in him 00:02:23.20\00:02:25.51 and he began to merchandise this iniquity 00:02:25.54\00:02:27.54 toward the other angels that would listen to him 00:02:27.58\00:02:29.98 and he started putting seeds of doubt into their minds 00:02:30.01\00:02:33.31 about God and His character and who He was 00:02:33.35\00:02:36.22 and we know this for two reasons, to be a fact... 00:02:36.25\00:02:38.65 not only does it say it in the Old Testament, 00:02:38.69\00:02:41.16 but we see it happening in the book of Genesis, 00:02:41.19\00:02:43.63 think about that... 00:02:43.69\00:02:45.39 in fact, let's look at those verses there 00:02:45.43\00:02:47.20 in Genesis chapter 3 and the way that he approached the woman 00:02:47.23\00:02:49.46 and then the other reason we know is because 00:02:49.50\00:02:51.03 that's exactly what we see happening 00:02:51.10\00:02:53.44 in the world at large today. 00:02:53.47\00:02:54.80 We know that Satan's come down to deceive the whole world 00:02:54.84\00:02:57.57 his mode of operation hasn't changed, 00:02:57.61\00:03:01.11 he is seeking to put seeds of doubt 00:03:01.14\00:03:04.58 into our minds about the character of God 00:03:04.61\00:03:06.51 and the love of God and he does it... 00:03:06.55\00:03:08.22 to a large degree... through religious guys... 00:03:08.25\00:03:10.22 through misrepresenting Him through religion 00:03:10.25\00:03:12.15 misrepresenting God through religion 00:03:12.19\00:03:13.76 so, Yvonne, can you read for us, in Genesis, can you read for us 00:03:13.82\00:03:18.09 Genesis chapter 3 and verses... just let's start with verse 1 00:03:18.13\00:03:22.16 and let's read all the way through verse 5. 00:03:22.20\00:03:24.83 Yvonne: "Now the serpent was more subtle 00:03:24.87\00:03:27.44 than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. 00:03:27.47\00:03:30.21 And he said unto the woman, Yeah, hath God said, 00:03:30.24\00:03:32.71 Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 00:03:32.77\00:03:35.21 And the woman said unto the serpent, 00:03:35.24\00:03:37.38 We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 00:03:37.41\00:03:39.81 But of the fruit of the tree 00:03:39.85\00:03:41.58 which is in the midst of the garden, 00:03:41.62\00:03:43.65 God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, 00:03:43.69\00:03:45.99 neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 00:03:46.02\00:03:48.22 And the serpent said unto the woman, 00:03:48.29\00:03:50.46 Ye shall not surely die: 00:03:50.49\00:03:52.56 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, 00:03:52.59\00:03:55.80 then your eyes shall be opened 00:03:55.86\00:03:57.67 and shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. " 00:03:57.70\00:04:00.47 James: All right... 00:04:00.50\00:04:01.94 so the first thing that Satan's saying about God is 00:04:01.97\00:04:03.91 that God can't be trusted to tell you the truth. 00:04:03.94\00:04:05.71 Yvonne: Hmmm... 00:04:05.77\00:04:07.21 James: "God's a liar... 00:04:07.24\00:04:08.68 he's not telling you the truth, you're not really going to die" 00:04:08.71\00:04:11.05 and the second thing he's saying is 00:04:11.08\00:04:13.62 that God is selfish... 00:04:13.68\00:04:15.28 "God actually... there is something in this fruit 00:04:15.32\00:04:19.05 that will make you just like Him 00:04:19.09\00:04:20.42 and He doesn't want you to have that. 00:04:20.46\00:04:21.79 God is selfish... and He's a withholder... 00:04:21.82\00:04:24.36 He wants to withhold from you, 00:04:24.39\00:04:26.73 He wants to hold you down to another level, 00:04:26.76\00:04:28.46 He's kind of... kind of control you 00:04:28.50\00:04:29.96 and make sure that you don't get to the place that He is... " 00:04:30.03\00:04:31.90 I mean, these are the kinds of lies that are obvious 00:04:31.93\00:04:34.57 when you read this... 00:04:34.60\00:04:35.94 these are the kinds of lies that Satan is insinuating 00:04:35.97\00:04:38.27 but the way he does it is so subtle... 00:04:38.31\00:04:40.44 because Eve isn't... all of a sudden saying, 00:04:40.48\00:04:43.24 "What! that... how can he say that about God?" 00:04:43.28\00:04:46.01 It's not like she even knows 00:04:46.05\00:04:48.18 that God's character has been assaulted. 00:04:48.22\00:04:49.95 Yvonne: Yeah. James: It's so subtle. 00:04:49.98\00:04:51.62 Yvonne: It's interesting to me that Satan took... 00:04:51.65\00:04:55.32 basically took God's word because if you look at verse 22, 00:04:55.36\00:05:00.00 I know we're kind of getting off... but... 00:05:00.03\00:05:01.70 James: That verse is good... verse is good. 00:05:01.73\00:05:04.93 Yvonne: I was asking the Lord about this once 00:05:04.97\00:05:08.10 because it just did not connect to me 00:05:08.14\00:05:10.41 and the Lord... I'll explain what I got from... 00:05:10.44\00:05:13.17 "And the LORD God said, 00:05:13.21\00:05:14.74 Behold, the man is become as one of us, 00:05:14.78\00:05:17.15 to know good and evil: 00:05:17.18\00:05:18.61 and now, lest he put forth his hand, 00:05:18.65\00:05:20.35 and take also of the tree of life, 00:05:20.38\00:05:22.02 and eat, and live forever... Therefore... " 00:05:22.05\00:05:24.52 in other words God was telling them 00:05:24.55\00:05:26.42 they had to leave the garden but the Lord had said Himself 00:05:26.45\00:05:30.79 that... "that they would become as one of us 00:05:30.83\00:05:34.33 to know good and evil" 00:05:34.36\00:05:36.26 now, the question is... what is, "to know... " 00:05:36.30\00:05:39.73 that's the question and I asked the Lord that 00:05:39.77\00:05:43.20 and what He impressed me with was that 00:05:43.24\00:05:45.81 it's not that God... we're in competition 00:05:45.84\00:05:48.31 with God on any level 00:05:48.34\00:05:50.05 but God is not contaminated by evil... and we are... 00:05:50.08\00:05:55.32 so, by them... by them taking of that fruit, 00:05:55.35\00:06:00.16 they... they became familiar... intimately familiar... 00:06:00.19\00:06:05.36 he knew her... they became familiar... 00:06:05.39\00:06:09.00 connected to evil and that was what... 00:06:09.03\00:06:12.57 that was what happened here, not so much... 00:06:12.60\00:06:15.70 it wasn't that God was worried about them becoming like Him 00:06:15.77\00:06:18.87 in terms of what He knew... He's a creator of the universe 00:06:18.91\00:06:21.88 but it was that He did not... they were... 00:06:21.91\00:06:25.41 He did not want them to get contaminated by the evil 00:06:25.45\00:06:29.12 and the sin contaminated them, so it was not... 00:06:29.15\00:06:32.92 Satan just took God's words 00:06:32.95\00:06:35.69 and gave it just that little bitty twist. 00:06:35.72\00:06:38.93 James: Just a tweak... just a tweak... 00:06:38.96\00:06:40.30 just tweaked this a little bit, it was so subtle... 00:06:40.33\00:06:42.83 and another thing I really like about what you brought out is, 00:06:42.86\00:06:45.33 "Yes, God never wanted us to know good and evil" 00:06:45.37\00:06:48.34 even the way He knows it... 00:06:48.37\00:06:49.90 because, it has brought pain to His own heart. 00:06:49.94\00:06:52.74 Yvonne: Yes... 00:06:52.77\00:06:54.11 James: It has hurt Him to the utmost... 00:06:54.14\00:06:55.48 He never wanted us to experience that. 00:06:55.51\00:06:56.85 Yvonne: Hmmm... 00:06:56.88\00:06:58.21 James: So, Satan says, 00:06:58.25\00:06:59.58 "He doesn't want you to know good and evil... " 00:06:59.61\00:07:00.95 and Eve could have said, 00:07:00.98\00:07:02.32 "That's right, and I trust Him for that, 00:07:02.35\00:07:03.89 I trust that I don't need to know that... " 00:07:03.92\00:07:05.25 Yvonne: Right... 00:07:05.29\00:07:06.72 James: And we're the same way, 00:07:06.76\00:07:08.09 "God doesn't want me to have fun... " 00:07:08.12\00:07:09.46 no, He doesn't want you to have pleasure of sin for a season. 00:07:09.49\00:07:12.13 Yvonne: Right. 00:07:12.16\00:07:13.50 James: Just for a season, He doesn't want you to have 00:07:13.53\00:07:14.86 any kind of seasonal fun, 00:07:14.90\00:07:16.23 He wants you to have pleasure for evermore, Psalm 16 says, 00:07:16.26\00:07:18.87 but He doesn't want you to have pleasure for a season, 00:07:18.93\00:07:21.90 that ends in death. Yvonne: Right... right. 00:07:21.97\00:07:23.97 Ivor: This war on words, I think, is a very... 00:07:24.01\00:07:26.01 it's a really... 00:07:26.04\00:07:27.71 a statement that really brings it together for us 00:07:27.74\00:07:30.55 and the reason that... it really was a war on words, 00:07:30.58\00:07:32.98 you look at Genesis chapter 3, what is he doing? 00:07:33.01\00:07:36.15 He's taking God's words and manipulating it, 00:07:36.18\00:07:39.22 when he was in... when he met Jesus in the wilderness, 00:07:39.25\00:07:42.42 he was taking the word of God and twisting it to meet his... 00:07:42.46\00:07:46.80 what he wanted... and it's interesting 00:07:46.83\00:07:49.86 because if you look at the book of Isaiah chapter 14, 00:07:49.93\00:07:53.47 I just want us to turn there, very quickly, 00:07:53.50\00:07:55.90 Isaiah 14... I want you to notice what it says in verse 12, 00:07:55.94\00:08:01.28 we can read from verse 12 to verse 13. 00:08:01.31\00:08:06.78 James: Whoever gets there first, start reading. 00:08:06.82\00:08:10.05 Jason: "How art thou fallen from heaven, 00:08:10.09\00:08:12.45 O Lucifer, son of the morning! 00:08:12.52\00:08:13.92 how art thou cut down to the ground, 00:08:13.96\00:08:16.69 which didst weaken the nations! 00:08:16.73\00:08:19.29 For thou hast said in thine heart, 00:08:19.33\00:08:21.86 I will ascend into heaven, 00:08:21.90\00:08:23.50 I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: 00:08:23.53\00:08:26.00 I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation 00:08:26.03\00:08:28.14 in the sides of the north... " 00:08:28.20\00:08:29.54 Ivor: Okay, so, Lucifer wanted to sit 00:08:29.57\00:08:32.11 on the mount of the congregation, 00:08:32.14\00:08:34.64 he wanted to sit on the sides of the north, 00:08:34.68\00:08:37.41 and I think we've gone over this before in the program 00:08:37.45\00:08:41.38 but "the sides of the north" 00:08:41.42\00:08:43.18 if you were to look in the sanctuary 00:08:43.22\00:08:45.39 the sides of the north 00:08:45.42\00:08:46.76 is where the Table of Shewbread is located 00:08:46.79\00:08:49.32 according to Exodus 26 verse 20, 00:08:49.36\00:08:52.39 the Table of Shewbread is on the side of the north, 00:08:52.43\00:08:55.30 on that side of north you have 12 loaves of bread 00:08:55.36\00:08:58.20 representing the people of God, 00:08:58.23\00:09:00.34 the congregation of God so when it says, 00:09:00.37\00:09:02.70 "Lucifer wanted to sit on the mount of the congregation 00:09:02.74\00:09:05.07 in the sides of the north... " this is in heaven, 00:09:05.11\00:09:06.91 He wanted to sit over the congregation of angels in heaven 00:09:06.94\00:09:11.21 now the Table of Shewbread represents the Word of God. 00:09:11.25\00:09:15.62 Lucifer wanted his word to be obeyed over God's word. 00:09:15.68\00:09:20.02 Yvonne: Hmmm... hmmm... 00:09:20.06\00:09:21.39 Ivor: This is what he was after, 00:09:21.42\00:09:22.76 "I will be like the Most High, I want you to obey me 00:09:22.79\00:09:26.29 as if you would obey the Most High" 00:09:26.33\00:09:27.96 and so when we see at the very end of time, 00:09:28.00\00:09:30.70 that... the Bible tells us 00:09:30.73\00:09:33.77 that Lucifer, himself, will appear as an angel of light 00:09:33.80\00:09:36.57 2nd Thessalonians talks about 00:09:36.60\00:09:39.37 "sitting in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God" 00:09:39.41\00:09:43.31 like, ultimately... 00:09:43.35\00:09:45.01 that verse ultimately points to Satan himself 00:09:45.05\00:09:48.22 coming and appearing as Jesus Christ, 00:09:48.25\00:09:50.69 "my word over His word... " this is the deception 00:09:50.72\00:09:54.49 that the Bible is warning us... is coming... 00:09:54.52\00:09:57.53 that Satan himself... it's interesting because 00:09:57.56\00:10:01.56 we often... when we study the Bible and especially 00:10:01.60\00:10:05.53 having the understanding of the three angels' messages, 00:10:05.57\00:10:08.87 we often leave Satan out of the picture 00:10:08.90\00:10:12.01 when it comes to the end time, 00:10:12.04\00:10:13.38 we think that the "man of sin" is human, right? 00:10:13.41\00:10:18.45 But listen carefully, 00:10:18.48\00:10:19.81 the Head of the Papal System is to Satan... 00:10:19.85\00:10:27.66 what John the Baptist was to Jesus. 00:10:27.69\00:10:30.46 John the Baptist prepared the way... for the coming One... 00:10:30.49\00:10:35.43 in the very same way... 00:10:35.46\00:10:37.40 the "way" is being prepared by the little horn 00:10:37.43\00:10:41.00 for the ultimate appearing of Satan himself 00:10:41.04\00:10:43.84 which we understand as the overmastering delusion... 00:10:43.91\00:10:47.64 deception... and when that happens, 00:10:47.68\00:10:49.18 it's going to be, "Listen, oh, that's God speaking" 00:10:49.21\00:10:51.81 he will show himself that he is God 00:10:51.85\00:10:54.68 and so we see this... this pattern of deception 00:10:54.72\00:10:57.92 from the war in heaven that's what he was trying to do, 00:10:57.95\00:11:01.22 he was trying to sit on the sides of the north, 00:11:01.29\00:11:03.12 "my word over God's word... " 00:11:03.16\00:11:04.49 when it comes to Eve, "my word over God's word" 00:11:04.53\00:11:06.70 Jesus in the wilderness... "my word over God's word" 00:11:06.73\00:11:10.17 and at the very end of time, "my word over God's word. " 00:11:10.20\00:11:13.50 Yvonne: Wow! Jason: He's lost his mind. 00:11:13.54\00:11:17.21 James: The other reference I want us to look at 00:11:17.24\00:11:20.08 with this is... is... I don't want us to read it but 00:11:20.11\00:11:22.08 Ezekiel 28... one verse... 00:11:22.11\00:11:24.68 "You have defiled your sanctuaries 00:11:24.71\00:11:26.11 by the multitude of your iniquities, 00:11:26.18\00:11:27.72 by the iniquity of thy traffic... " 00:11:27.78\00:11:29.25 the things that he has been trafficking against God, 00:11:29.28\00:11:32.09 the things that he has been saying against God, 00:11:32.12\00:11:34.16 the words that he's been communicating against God, 00:11:34.22\00:11:36.22 and the context of Ezekiel 28 is this covering cherub... 00:11:36.26\00:11:41.56 the anointed one, this Lucifer... 00:11:41.60\00:11:43.20 it's talking about Lucifer in that context, 00:11:43.23\00:11:44.83 so I think it's really important... 00:11:44.87\00:11:46.37 what Ivor just brought out is really key because 00:11:46.40\00:11:48.24 the bottom line for our... 00:11:48.30\00:11:51.11 the basis of our protection is the Word of God 00:11:51.14\00:11:54.34 and this woman that's clothed in the sun 00:11:54.38\00:11:56.31 which represents Christ's righteousness 00:11:56.34\00:11:58.21 is also standing on the moon, 00:11:58.25\00:11:59.58 "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path" 00:11:59.61\00:12:01.52 "a light unto my feet, and a lamp unto my path" 00:12:01.55\00:12:03.59 it's one of those two... Psalm 119:105... 00:12:03.62\00:12:06.35 Yvonne: "A light unto my feet, and a lamp unto my path. " 00:12:06.39\00:12:09.49 Jason: I can't help but wonder what would have happened 00:12:09.52\00:12:11.33 if Adam and Eve were together 00:12:11.36\00:12:13.46 and not separated... that very moment, 00:12:13.50\00:12:16.60 what would have happened if Adam and Eve were together... 00:12:16.63\00:12:19.90 would they have just been like, 00:12:19.93\00:12:21.84 "No, you can go somewhere with your lies... " 00:12:21.87\00:12:24.27 or would they have both caved then? 00:12:24.31\00:12:27.48 I can't wait to get to heaven to find out. 00:12:27.51\00:12:29.51 James: I don't have a Bible verse on that 00:12:29.54\00:12:31.48 but I know it is important for the man... not to be alone 00:12:31.51\00:12:35.22 and for the woman and the man to be together, 00:12:35.25\00:12:37.42 so, let's get back to Revelation chapter 12 00:12:37.45\00:12:39.55 and I just want us to look here because we're trying to sort out 00:12:39.59\00:12:43.63 why does John go to heaven all of a sudden, 00:12:43.66\00:12:47.26 in verses 7, 8 and 9... he's in heaven... 00:12:47.30\00:12:50.83 and he's talking about this war... 00:12:50.87\00:12:54.97 this conflict that began in heaven, now, 00:12:55.00\00:12:57.37 I think, one of the reasons why he does this is because 00:12:57.41\00:13:00.38 God is summarizing the whole great controversy 00:13:00.41\00:13:02.81 from beginning to end because He's going to end it right here, 00:13:02.84\00:13:05.51 and He wants us to know where it started and how it started. 00:13:05.55\00:13:07.42 Yvonne: Hmmm... hmmm... 00:13:07.48\00:13:08.92 James: And it's kind of like... I was talking with Bobby about 00:13:08.95\00:13:13.12 the conquering of the Canaan... the new... the promised land... 00:13:13.15\00:13:17.89 and Joshua... and how they went in... 00:13:17.93\00:13:19.79 and they went around Jericho seven times and boom! 00:13:19.83\00:13:22.63 It came down... God took it out... 00:13:22.66\00:13:24.00 and then when it came to Ai... Jericho was a big strong city... 00:13:24.03\00:13:27.40 when it came to Ai... Joshua's like... 00:13:27.44\00:13:30.57 "Oh, no problem... 00:13:30.61\00:13:31.94 send a few thousand... let's take it out... " 00:13:31.97\00:13:33.34 goes in there... completely routed... 00:13:33.38\00:13:36.48 36 died... they run back... and Joshua falls on his face 00:13:36.51\00:13:39.98 and he's like, "Lord, I can't believe he led us out here... 00:13:40.02\00:13:43.35 we're going to die... and then what about your great name, 00:13:43.39\00:13:46.72 what about you and your character?" 00:13:46.76\00:13:48.36 And the point that... 00:13:48.39\00:13:50.76 the conclusion that we're coming to 00:13:50.79\00:13:52.99 as we were talking about this, a little bit was... 00:13:53.03\00:13:55.13 we trust God for the big sins in our lives, the Jericho's... 00:13:55.16\00:14:00.37 but we don't always trust Him for the little ones, 00:14:00.40\00:14:02.70 we think we can deal with those, 00:14:02.74\00:14:04.17 "I can take care of that little thing" 00:14:04.21\00:14:05.71 but it's the little ones that keep bugging us 00:14:05.74\00:14:07.84 and they're just there... and they're there 00:14:07.88\00:14:09.88 and they're there... and they're there... you know... 00:14:09.94\00:14:11.71 and I think that is vital for us to understand 00:14:11.75\00:14:15.72 that sometimes we lose our dependence on God 00:14:15.75\00:14:19.65 when it comes to Him taking care of little things 00:14:19.69\00:14:22.32 that we think we have to take care of 00:14:22.36\00:14:23.89 and we don't stay focused on Him 00:14:23.93\00:14:27.23 in relation to everything... God has everything... 00:14:27.26\00:14:30.23 and so, when we get in Revelation chapter 12, 00:14:30.27\00:14:33.57 we need to recognize, "No one can take him out... " 00:14:33.60\00:14:36.81 no one can take out the devil but Michael... 00:14:36.84\00:14:40.34 and so what happens in the context of this... 00:14:40.38\00:14:43.48 "Michael prevails... " 00:14:43.55\00:14:45.18 that's a word that I think is really interesting 00:14:45.21\00:14:46.92 and then, in the very context of this, 00:14:46.95\00:14:49.62 it says in verse 9... 00:14:49.68\00:14:51.02 "And the great dragon was cast out, 00:14:51.05\00:14:52.49 that old serpent, called the Devil, 00:14:52.52\00:14:53.92 and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world; 00:14:53.96\00:14:55.59 he was cast out into the earth, 00:14:55.62\00:14:57.19 and his angels were cast out with him. " 00:14:57.23\00:14:58.56 Well, I remember, 00:14:58.59\00:15:01.10 Satan going to the presence of God in the book of Job, 00:15:01.13\00:15:05.20 the "casting out" here definitely, okay, 00:15:05.23\00:15:09.74 it definitely happened, let's say, in a physical sense 00:15:09.77\00:15:12.47 sometime before we even were aware of it, 00:15:12.51\00:15:15.51 he's cast out of heaven but in a psychological sense, 00:15:15.54\00:15:20.72 in a political sense, 00:15:20.75\00:15:22.52 Satan still has a little bit of something... 00:15:22.55\00:15:25.95 even with the rest of the universe, 00:15:25.99\00:15:28.39 he still dares to walk into the presence of God and say... 00:15:28.42\00:15:31.69 and God says, "What are you doing here?" 00:15:31.73\00:15:33.06 He says, "I come from the earth. " 00:15:33.09\00:15:34.43 Yvonne: Hmmm... hmmm... 00:15:34.46\00:15:35.80 James: And God points to Job 00:15:35.83\00:15:37.30 but really what God is doing is God... 00:15:37.33\00:15:38.87 because the whole book of Job is another "mini" of the dragon 00:15:38.90\00:15:41.34 leviathan is in the book of Job and Job is like... "Wh... " 00:15:41.37\00:15:43.94 and God's like, 00:15:43.97\00:15:45.31 "I'm the only one that can take care of Leviathan... 00:15:45.34\00:15:46.84 you can't take care of Leviathan" 00:15:46.88\00:15:48.21 and so, here, we see... I think, a final... if you will 00:15:48.24\00:15:52.45 casting out... of the dragon... 00:15:52.48\00:15:55.08 from the minds and the hearts and the sympathies 00:15:55.15\00:15:59.29 of the heavenly universe. 00:15:59.32\00:16:00.99 Yvonne: Oh, as opposed to 00:16:01.02\00:16:02.62 what happened in the very beginning? 00:16:02.66\00:16:04.86 James: Yes... Yvonne: Oh... 00:16:04.89\00:16:06.39 James: You see... and the reason why I say this is because 00:16:06.43\00:16:08.53 "the dragon was cast out, that old devil, 00:16:08.56\00:16:10.23 and the angels that were cast out into the earth, 00:16:10.27\00:16:12.03 and his angels were cast out with him... " 00:16:12.10\00:16:13.84 and verse 10... "And I heard a loud voice 00:16:13.87\00:16:16.50 saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, 00:16:16.54\00:16:18.81 and strength, and the kingdom of our God, 00:16:18.84\00:16:20.98 and the power of his Christ: 00:16:21.01\00:16:22.94 for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, 00:16:22.98\00:16:25.58 which accused them before God day and night... " 00:16:25.61\00:16:28.18 and it goes on to say, verse 12, 00:16:28.22\00:16:30.59 "Therefore rejoice, you heavens, and you that dwell in them 00:16:30.62\00:16:33.15 but woe to the inhabitants of the earth 00:16:33.19\00:16:35.02 for the devil is come unto you, having great wrath, 00:16:35.06\00:16:38.36 because he knows he has but a short time. " 00:16:38.39\00:16:40.73 Now here's the deal... if you look at... 00:16:40.76\00:16:43.26 look up this verse for us, John 12:31... 00:16:43.30\00:16:45.57 and we'll get to that in just a second... 00:16:45.63\00:16:47.84 but if you look at this in the context of the war... 00:16:47.87\00:16:52.31 the conflict that's taking place, 00:16:52.34\00:16:54.61 the sympathies that... it says, 00:16:54.64\00:16:56.85 "Now I heard a loud voice in heaven saying, 00:16:56.88\00:16:58.78 'salvation is come... ' but on the earth... 00:16:58.81\00:17:00.95 there's still a problem... " Yvonne: Hmmm... 00:17:00.98\00:17:03.05 James: Something has happened 00:17:03.08\00:17:04.89 to change the whole circumstance of heaven, 00:17:04.92\00:17:08.46 now if this was... if this took place... 00:17:08.49\00:17:10.13 if these verses have their only fulfillment, 00:17:10.16\00:17:12.96 or their only application 00:17:12.99\00:17:14.40 to the time when Satan was cast out of heaven, 00:17:14.43\00:17:16.10 why would there be war on the earth? 00:17:16.16\00:17:17.87 Adam and Eve hadn't fallen yet, Adam and Eve were... 00:17:17.90\00:17:19.83 they were warned about him but they... 00:17:19.90\00:17:22.07 see, there's either something... there's another application here 00:17:22.10\00:17:24.51 and when you read these verses, Jason. 00:17:24.54\00:17:26.51 Ivor: James, let me just add there... that 00:17:26.54\00:17:28.41 not only had Adam and Eve not fallen yet, 00:17:28.44\00:17:30.08 but they weren't even created. 00:17:30.11\00:17:31.45 James: Yeah... 00:17:31.48\00:17:32.81 Ivor: So, "Woe unto them that dwell on the earth... " 00:17:32.85\00:17:34.18 this is pointing us to another time 00:17:34.22\00:17:37.05 because there's evidently people dwelling on the earth 00:17:37.09\00:17:41.16 when this fall happens so this is not... 00:17:41.19\00:17:44.89 in other words, yes, there was war in heaven, 00:17:44.93\00:17:46.83 he was cast out at the very beginning 00:17:46.90\00:17:48.46 but there's also a casting out 00:17:48.53\00:17:51.53 when there were people that were dwelling on the earth, 00:17:51.60\00:17:54.10 you see what I'm saying? 00:17:54.14\00:17:55.47 James: Yes... yeah... there's a casting out, 00:17:55.50\00:17:56.84 let's read John chapter 12, 00:17:56.87\00:17:58.37 I think I want to start with verse 29, 00:17:58.41\00:18:01.38 let's start there just to make sure I got the context. 00:18:01.41\00:18:04.65 Jason: You want me to go to 31? 00:18:04.68\00:18:07.12 James: Yeah, let's start with 29 and let's read it really quickly 00:18:07.18\00:18:10.05 start with 29 and yeah... and read through verse 32. 00:18:10.09\00:18:15.76 Jason: Okay, "The people therefore, 00:18:15.79\00:18:17.73 that stood by, and heard it... " 00:18:17.76\00:18:19.49 James: No, no, I'm sorry... verse 30... 00:18:19.53\00:18:21.06 Jason: Verse 30? James: No, no... verse 31. 00:18:21.10\00:18:22.56 Jason: Okay, verse 31, 00:18:22.63\00:18:23.97 "Now is the judgment of this world: 00:18:24.00\00:18:25.70 now shall the prince of this world be cast out. 00:18:25.73\00:18:28.70 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, 00:18:28.74\00:18:31.64 will draw all men unto me. " 00:18:31.67\00:18:33.58 James: Okay... do you see the phrase there that's used? 00:18:33.64\00:18:36.71 "Cast out... 00:18:36.75\00:18:38.15 now shall the prince of the world be 'cast out... ' 00:18:38.18\00:18:41.95 and then what am I going to do? 00:18:41.98\00:18:43.55 I'm going to start drawing people to me. " 00:18:43.59\00:18:45.15 See what has happened to the earth? 00:18:45.19\00:18:46.55 Why would He need to draw people to him? 00:18:46.59\00:18:48.99 Because they'd been separated from Him. 00:18:49.02\00:18:51.46 So, in this context, 00:18:51.49\00:18:54.63 Jesus Christ, here, is telling us about 00:18:54.66\00:18:56.53 a future prophecy... the prophecy includes His death, 00:18:56.56\00:19:00.47 because He says here, "And I, if I be lifted up... " 00:19:00.50\00:19:04.24 so that's the cross... 00:19:04.27\00:19:05.61 "I'm going to cast him out... if I be lifted up 00:19:05.64\00:19:09.01 and I'm going to draw people to me... " 00:19:09.04\00:19:10.38 If we just take that, those two verses... 00:19:10.41\00:19:12.78 John 12:31 and 32 00:19:12.81\00:19:15.38 and we put it right here in Revelation chapter 12... 00:19:15.42\00:19:17.19 they have an exact fit, 00:19:17.22\00:19:19.25 because what happens at the cross is, 00:19:19.29\00:19:21.52 Satan is finally cast out... "rejoice ye heavens... " 00:19:21.56\00:19:23.89 and yet... but what about the inhabitants of the earth? 00:19:23.93\00:19:26.19 And Jesus says, 00:19:26.23\00:19:27.56 "I've got to draw the inhabitants of the earth to me, 00:19:27.60\00:19:29.33 I've got to draw them to me. " 00:19:29.36\00:19:30.70 So right here... Revelation chapter 12 00:19:30.73\00:19:33.23 is recapping the whole history, now, 00:19:33.27\00:19:35.84 the reason why this is important is because 00:19:35.87\00:19:37.21 we have the whole history of the rebellion in heaven 00:19:37.24\00:19:40.41 from its beginning and then we have 00:19:40.44\00:19:42.24 the woman who brings forth a child 00:19:42.28\00:19:44.05 she's caught up to... 00:19:44.08\00:19:45.41 the dragon tries to destroy the child... she's caught up... 00:19:45.45\00:19:47.52 the child is caught up to heaven and to His God 00:19:47.55\00:19:49.88 and then we have an explanation of the cross, 00:19:49.95\00:19:52.25 here you've got the resurrection but you've got the cross. 00:19:52.29\00:19:56.29 Ivor: So, I'm always looking at ways to... like, juice it down 00:19:56.32\00:20:00.20 and step back and look at the big picture 00:20:00.23\00:20:02.30 and what I'm seeing here in Revelation 12 00:20:02.33\00:20:04.37 is that... in verses 1 through 6, 00:20:04.40\00:20:06.43 verses 7 onward... is like a recap of verses 1 through 6 00:20:06.50\00:20:12.81 because what's interesting is... 00:20:12.84\00:20:14.54 if you look at verse 3, 00:20:14.58\00:20:15.91 "there appeared another wonder in heaven; 00:20:15.94\00:20:17.88 and behold a great red dragon 00:20:17.91\00:20:19.38 having seven heads and ten horns, 00:20:19.41\00:20:20.95 with his crowns upon his head. 00:20:20.98\00:20:22.42 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven... " 00:20:22.45\00:20:25.75 and did what? "cast them to the earth. " 00:20:25.79\00:20:28.52 That's... that's the war in heaven... 00:20:28.56\00:20:31.26 right, that's the fall of Lucifer and his angels 00:20:31.29\00:20:34.30 from heaven... those angels... those... 00:20:34.33\00:20:36.13 the one third of the stars represent 00:20:36.16\00:20:37.93 one third of the angels, 00:20:37.97\00:20:39.57 so in chapter 12... verses 1 through 6 00:20:39.60\00:20:42.74 you have this like... shorter version of, 00:20:42.80\00:20:45.91 "Hey, this is all that happened" 00:20:45.94\00:20:47.28 right, but then seven... it's like it goes back again. 00:20:47.31\00:20:49.71 James: It repeats and enlarges. 00:20:49.74\00:20:51.08 Ivor: There was war in heaven... and enlarges 00:20:51.11\00:20:52.45 and takes us into more detail. 00:20:52.48\00:20:54.78 James: Yeah, because verses 1 through 6 include 00:20:54.82\00:20:57.39 the child being born and being caught up... but not the cross. 00:20:57.45\00:21:00.12 Ivor: Right... it includes the time, time and a half, 00:21:00.16\00:21:04.49 so when you read further down 00:21:04.53\00:21:06.83 you're seeing... you're seeing the time, time and a half again, 00:21:06.86\00:21:10.10 you're seeing the woman in the wilderness again, so God... 00:21:10.13\00:21:13.30 James: And you see Christ again. 00:21:13.34\00:21:14.70 Ivor: And you see Christ again 00:21:14.74\00:21:16.07 so it's almost as if God is saying, 00:21:16.10\00:21:17.44 "Okay guys, before we move to Revelation chapter 13, 00:21:17.51\00:21:21.08 I want to make sure... I'm going to tell you twice, 00:21:21.11\00:21:24.65 I want to make sure that you got... 00:21:24.71\00:21:26.78 you know where we are, so that, when we get into this, 00:21:26.82\00:21:30.19 you're not lost... you're not confused... 00:21:30.22\00:21:31.82 you have no confusion, you know what's coming next... " 00:21:31.85\00:21:34.39 so God says it and then He repeats it 00:21:34.42\00:21:37.13 and goes into more detail. 00:21:37.16\00:21:38.49 James: Hmmm... hmmm... Yvonne: Hmmm... 00:21:38.53\00:21:39.86 James: And if there's any place where God needs to repeat it 00:21:39.89\00:21:42.20 and say it again and make sure we got it clear, 00:21:42.23\00:21:44.13 this is the place... 00:21:44.17\00:21:45.50 now, I'm not talking about... this is the place... 00:21:45.53\00:21:46.87 like in the book of Revelation, I'm talking about... 00:21:46.90\00:21:48.24 this is the place... like the subject matter, 00:21:48.27\00:21:49.87 this is the most important subject matter we can talk about 00:21:49.90\00:21:52.87 we're talking about how this whole great controversy began, 00:21:52.91\00:21:55.84 we're talking about what it's about... 00:21:55.88\00:21:57.81 it's about God's character, 00:21:57.85\00:21:59.18 we're talking about how it is promulgated by words... 00:21:59.21\00:22:01.95 by slight misrepresentations, okay 00:22:01.98\00:22:04.62 about God, about His character... 00:22:04.65\00:22:07.22 which are continuing on and being promulgated by 00:22:07.26\00:22:10.43 majorly by religion even "Christian" religion, 00:22:10.46\00:22:13.23 it totally misrepresents the character of God. 00:22:13.26\00:22:15.23 I remember when I was coming out here once, 00:22:15.26\00:22:17.17 I was on my journey to 3ABN, I was in a rental car 00:22:17.23\00:22:21.70 and I was looking for a radio station, 00:22:21.74\00:22:23.07 you know in Southern Illinois, it's not hard to find 00:22:23.10\00:22:24.61 a Christian radio station, that's what I was looking for, 00:22:24.67\00:22:26.47 a Christian radio station... so, here... 00:22:26.51\00:22:28.24 unlike Oregon where I live, it's more secular... 00:22:28.31\00:22:30.95 I'm not looking for... 00:22:30.98\00:22:32.38 trying to find a Christian radio station over secular... 00:22:32.41\00:22:35.05 I'm trying to find the right Christian radio station, 00:22:35.08\00:22:37.82 you know, like... there are a lot of choices, 00:22:37.85\00:22:39.19 "All right, which one do I want?" 00:22:39.22\00:22:40.56 And I stopped 00:22:40.59\00:22:41.92 when I was listening to these two guys talk about 00:22:41.96\00:22:44.89 predestination... never heard that before, 00:22:44.93\00:22:47.46 I mean, I understood the whole concept 00:22:47.50\00:22:49.63 but I never heard two people on a radio talk show... 00:22:49.66\00:22:52.53 Christians... talking about it specifically, 00:22:52.57\00:22:54.44 in fact, I had a hard time believing that 00:22:54.50\00:22:56.30 people really believe that, like, I knew it was a doctrine, 00:22:56.37\00:22:58.94 okay, Calvinism, right, but, do people really believe that? 00:22:58.97\00:23:01.21 Yes, these guys really believed this, 00:23:01.24\00:23:02.84 and they were going on about predestination 00:23:02.88\00:23:05.01 and how God has created certain people to be saved 00:23:05.05\00:23:08.18 and God has created certain people to be lost 00:23:08.22\00:23:09.55 and there are certain people 00:23:09.58\00:23:10.92 who have no chance of ever being saved, 00:23:10.95\00:23:12.29 and there are other people that are saved 00:23:12.32\00:23:13.66 and they're never going to be lost, 00:23:13.69\00:23:15.02 "once saved... always saved... they're always going to be... " 00:23:15.06\00:23:16.56 and I was like... "Really? Really?" 00:23:16.59\00:23:18.53 And people were calling in and they were saying, 00:23:18.59\00:23:20.43 "Wait a minute, wait a minute... doesn't the Bible say here... 00:23:20.46\00:23:22.20 and doesn't the Bible say here...?" 00:23:22.23\00:23:23.57 "No, no, no... they were never saved that they turned from God, 00:23:23.60\00:23:25.63 they were never saved in the first place, 00:23:25.67\00:23:27.00 no, no, no, there's no possibility... 00:23:27.04\00:23:28.40 that person was always saved, he may have been a rebel... 00:23:28.44\00:23:30.74 but he was always saved... that's just the way it is... " 00:23:30.77\00:23:33.07 And I thought, 00:23:33.11\00:23:34.44 "You know, if you combined that idea 00:23:34.48\00:23:37.01 with the other idea that a lot of Christians believe 00:23:37.05\00:23:40.15 that hell is an eternally burning fire, 00:23:40.18\00:23:43.15 never ending... the two concepts together... 00:23:43.18\00:23:46.19 'God has created some people to burn in hell for all eternity'" 00:23:46.22\00:23:50.39 I'm like, "there's nothing that can misrepresent 00:23:50.43\00:23:54.73 the character of God more 00:23:54.76\00:23:56.10 than the combination of those two doctrines together. " 00:23:56.13\00:23:57.67 Yvonne: Yeah... yes. 00:23:57.70\00:23:59.03 James: And I thought, "God has been... " 00:23:59.07\00:24:00.40 and I think about this, "Has anyone ever said something 00:24:00.44\00:24:02.60 critical about you that was wrong? 00:24:02.64\00:24:06.11 Has anyone ever misrepresented you or falsified you?" 00:24:06.17\00:24:09.24 Maybe they've said, 00:24:09.31\00:24:11.31 "You're always late... you never get here on time... " 00:24:11.38\00:24:13.88 or something like that, I don't know... 00:24:13.92\00:24:15.48 All: Laughter... 00:24:15.52\00:24:17.85 James: No, seriously... 00:24:17.89\00:24:21.06 and you know how hard that is sometimes to bear, like, 00:24:21.09\00:24:24.36 "I know I'm late sometimes, 00:24:24.39\00:24:25.73 I know that's not a big deal I can... that's... yeah... 00:24:25.76\00:24:27.83 what I would expect... " 00:24:27.86\00:24:29.20 but when someone says something about you 00:24:29.23\00:24:32.47 that is bad and false... think about God... 00:24:32.50\00:24:35.74 think about His shoulders... He's been completely... 00:24:35.77\00:24:39.14 and He's so loving... He's such a... 00:24:39.17\00:24:40.98 He's just like the opposite of anything 00:24:41.04\00:24:42.41 if you can even imagine... 00:24:42.44\00:24:43.85 we can't even fathom what He's like and love... 00:24:43.88\00:24:45.51 and He's been completely... so, now what I do, whenever I... 00:24:45.55\00:24:49.18 whenever I experience that myself 00:24:49.22\00:24:51.25 where I feel like I've been misrepresented, 00:24:51.32\00:24:52.65 I just think about God... 00:24:52.69\00:24:54.02 I just think about His character, 00:24:54.06\00:24:55.59 I just think about... for 6,000 years 00:24:55.62\00:24:57.66 He's been completely misrepresented 00:24:57.69\00:24:59.69 in so many ways... 00:24:59.73\00:25:01.06 and He's borne through this 00:25:01.10\00:25:02.43 but finally God is doing something about it, 00:25:02.46\00:25:04.87 Revelation 12 is telling us 00:25:04.90\00:25:06.50 finally this testimony is being given, 00:25:06.53\00:25:08.17 "You want to know what God is like? 00:25:08.20\00:25:09.84 Look to Calvary" 00:25:09.87\00:25:11.21 see, God isn't casting out by might... 00:25:11.24\00:25:13.24 God is casting out by testimony, 00:25:13.27\00:25:14.94 He's standing up in court and He's giving His testimony 00:25:15.01\00:25:17.45 He is going to be on the witness stand, 00:25:17.48\00:25:19.08 the hour of His judgment is come 00:25:19.11\00:25:20.58 and He's going to make a statement, 00:25:20.62\00:25:21.95 and His statement is going to be, 00:25:21.98\00:25:23.32 "Here's what you've seen for 6,000 years 00:25:23.35\00:25:25.19 concerning this fallen angel, here's what I'm all about, 00:25:25.22\00:25:29.09 I'm all about saving you, 00:25:29.12\00:25:30.96 I'm all about giving my life for you, 00:25:30.99\00:25:32.33 I'm all about... " and finally as we see this... 00:25:32.36\00:25:35.43 finally people are drawn they're just drawn... 00:25:35.46\00:25:38.43 "I want to draw everyone to me through this revelation... " 00:25:38.47\00:25:40.90 it's a beautiful picture. 00:25:40.94\00:25:42.67 Yvonne: Wow... 00:25:42.70\00:25:44.04 Ivor: Again, if you look at Revelation chapters 1 through 11 00:25:44.07\00:25:46.51 what you really have there is just... like I said, 00:25:46.57\00:25:50.01 these little pieces... little snapshots... 00:25:50.05\00:25:52.25 just like if you were to open your eyes 00:25:52.28\00:25:54.45 just like a blink, you open and you close it again 00:25:54.48\00:25:56.65 little pictures... but in Revelation 12, 00:25:56.69\00:26:00.66 it's the first... fully detailed account 00:26:00.69\00:26:04.39 about the great controversy, the whole chapter, 00:26:04.43\00:26:07.66 think about it, from Genesis 00:26:07.70\00:26:09.43 all the way to Revelation chapter 1, 00:26:09.46\00:26:12.53 there is no detail... it's just pieces... 00:26:12.57\00:26:15.00 Jesus says, "I beheld Satan fall like lightening from heaven" 00:26:15.04\00:26:18.17 what else happened? 00:26:18.21\00:26:20.28 James: Yeah, how did that happen? 00:26:20.34\00:26:21.68 Ivor: Yeah, how did that happen?
