I want to spend my life
00:00:01.90\00:00:07.57
Mending broken people
00:00:07.60\00:00:12.47
I want to spend
00:00:12.51\00:00:15.01
My life
00:00:15.04\00:00:18.75
Removing pain
00:00:18.78\00:00:23.95
Lord, let my words
00:00:23.99\00:00:29.99
Heal a heart that hurts
00:00:30.03\00:00:34.43
I want to spend my life
00:00:34.46\00:00:40.60
Mending broken people
00:00:40.64\00:00:45.74
I want to spend my life
00:00:45.77\00:00:51.35
Mending broken people
00:00:51.38\00:00:55.25
Hello, and
welcome to a very special
00:01:07.03\00:01:09.13
3ABN Today program.
00:01:09.16\00:01:11.33
My name is C.A. Murray
00:01:11.37\00:01:12.70
and allow me once
again to thank you
00:01:12.73\00:01:14.27
for your love, your prayers,
your support of this ministry
00:01:14.30\00:01:16.40
because we realize
that we could not do
00:01:16.44\00:01:18.27
what we are called to do
without your partnership,
00:01:18.31\00:01:21.68
without your consistent prayers,
00:01:21.71\00:01:23.08
your consistent support
00:01:23.11\00:01:24.45
and so we thank you from
the bottom of our hearts.
00:01:24.48\00:01:26.58
I'm joined by Danny Shelton,
00:01:26.61\00:01:27.95
our founder, our
friend, our president.
00:01:27.98\00:01:29.45
It's privileged to be here today
00:01:29.48\00:01:30.82
and we brought our Bibles.
00:01:30.85\00:01:32.19
Yeah, we got our Bibles
open. You know, we're studying.
00:01:32.22\00:01:33.56
We want you to get
your Bibles or your iPads
00:01:33.59\00:01:35.69
or whatever it
is you use nowadays
00:01:35.72\00:01:38.09
because I think
our pastor over here
00:01:38.13\00:01:39.56
has a Bible and an iPad.
00:01:39.59\00:01:41.00
Is that right, John?
00:01:41.03\00:01:42.36
That's right. You
have to be fully ready.
00:01:42.40\00:01:43.77
Got both, all right.
I'm ready to give an answer.
00:01:43.80\00:01:46.17
So and I didn't
name to take your,
00:01:46.20\00:01:49.14
didn't mean to take your thunder
00:01:49.17\00:01:50.51
and introduce
the guest but I did.
00:01:50.54\00:01:52.17
In deed you did.
00:01:52.21\00:01:53.54
Start, well, since I did
that Pastor John Lomacang
00:01:53.58\00:01:56.34
and Dr. Yvonne
Lewis. Good to be here.
00:01:56.38\00:01:58.78
I'm used to
sitting in that chair.
00:01:58.81\00:02:00.15
Indeed, we can switch anytime.
00:02:00.18\00:02:01.52
Anytime you're ready.
00:02:01.55\00:02:02.88
No, I ask him to sit
there. You know, why?
00:02:02.92\00:02:04.72
Because it's easier in
this chair than your chair.
00:02:04.75\00:02:07.16
Indeed.
00:02:07.19\00:02:08.52
So I've just got my Bible today,
00:02:08.56\00:02:09.89
I want to follow through.
00:02:09.92\00:02:11.26
We're gonna do
some wonderful topic
00:02:11.29\00:02:13.76
and the reason I
think it's wonderful
00:02:13.80\00:02:15.26
is because it has to
do with here and now.
00:02:15.30\00:02:17.50
Yeah. That's right.
00:02:17.53\00:02:18.87
We're kind of juxtaposing
the word and the world
00:02:18.90\00:02:21.04
and maybe we even
call it the word in a world
00:02:21.07\00:02:22.64
because we are
going into the word
00:02:22.67\00:02:24.61
and through the word look
at the world that surround us.
00:02:24.64\00:02:27.51
And look at the things
that we are called to face
00:02:27.54\00:02:29.11
as a people.
00:02:29.14\00:02:30.48
And I said this just this
past Sabbath, Pastor John,
00:02:30.51\00:02:32.75
that the one thing that
is incumbent upon Adventism,
00:02:32.78\00:02:36.75
upon Adventist, you
don't get to take vacations.
00:02:36.79\00:02:41.49
You don't get to
sleep. You don't get time off.
00:02:41.52\00:02:43.76
You don't get time out. Okay.
00:02:43.79\00:02:45.99
The call is for
vigilance. That's right.
00:02:46.03\00:02:48.16
You got to have your eyes
open and your head up always,
00:02:48.20\00:02:50.80
and if you do
put your head down,
00:02:50.83\00:02:52.20
it may be in the Word.
00:02:52.23\00:02:53.70
But then up to the hills,
from whence cometh your help
00:02:53.74\00:02:56.30
because the
times in which you live
00:02:56.34\00:02:58.51
are exciting times but
they are dangerous times,
00:02:58.54\00:03:01.24
there are times you
should be awake and alert
00:03:01.28\00:03:02.71
and of course you've
been doing some study,
00:03:02.74\00:03:04.08
we've all been doing some study
00:03:04.11\00:03:05.78
and you are gonna
bring some things to us today
00:03:05.81\00:03:07.35
as we look at where we are
in the history of this Word.
00:03:07.38\00:03:10.05
As you well said,
Danny, many times it's late.
00:03:10.09\00:03:13.32
I mean, Christ is coming
soon. So we need to be aware.
00:03:13.36\00:03:15.79
So from time to time,
00:03:15.82\00:03:17.16
we want to kind of come together
00:03:17.19\00:03:18.53
in this kind of
setting with our Bibles open,
00:03:18.56\00:03:20.43
looking at the
topics that are current,
00:03:20.46\00:03:22.13
that affects you as a church,
that affects you as a people,
00:03:22.16\00:03:25.13
maybe you are not even
in the Adventist church yet,
00:03:25.17\00:03:27.70
but that doesn't mean
you are immune to the times
00:03:27.74\00:03:30.07
and to the affects of things
that are going on in this world
00:03:30.11\00:03:32.74
that are going
to impact your life,
00:03:32.77\00:03:34.44
your past, your present
and dare I say, your future.
00:03:34.48\00:03:36.28
Tell me...
00:03:36.31\00:03:37.65
Name anybody who
is not interested
00:03:37.68\00:03:39.11
in the future right now
00:03:39.15\00:03:41.25
more than ever
anytime since I've been alive
00:03:41.28\00:03:43.99
and that's been a
long time by the way
00:03:44.02\00:03:46.12
and some of the rest
of the folk here know
00:03:46.15\00:03:48.09
because Yvonne and C.A.
00:03:48.12\00:03:49.72
you are pretty
close to me here so...
00:03:49.76\00:03:51.09
Now why you have
to bring that up?
00:03:51.13\00:03:52.46
John's a little younger.
00:03:52.49\00:03:54.60
Why you have to bring that up?
00:03:54.63\00:03:55.96
You look younger so
we'll give you that.
00:03:56.00\00:03:57.47
I'm a teenager in the group.
00:03:57.50\00:03:59.90
We won't argue
about that for sure,
00:03:59.93\00:04:02.10
but honestly my whole lifetime
never has there been a time
00:04:02.14\00:04:07.38
you every day
now when you turn on,
00:04:07.41\00:04:09.34
has been this way
for sometime, the news,
00:04:09.38\00:04:11.88
it's what's gonna happen. Yes.
00:04:11.91\00:04:14.02
You have ISIS.
00:04:14.05\00:04:15.38
We have all these
things around the world.
00:04:15.42\00:04:17.39
Paris, now what's happening?
00:04:17.42\00:04:19.05
Airports, you know,
everybody is interested,
00:04:19.09\00:04:21.89
that's why lot of
them turn on the news.
00:04:21.92\00:04:23.79
Well, I'm
planning on traveling here,
00:04:23.83\00:04:25.33
can I go there?
00:04:25.36\00:04:26.70
Someone I just
talked to the other day
00:04:26.73\00:04:28.40
cancelled a Philippines trip.
00:04:28.43\00:04:29.90
The state
department said, don't travel.
00:04:29.93\00:04:32.17
It's a terrible time
that we are living in
00:04:32.20\00:04:36.74
if there was no Jesus.
00:04:36.77\00:04:38.87
If there is no God,
00:04:38.91\00:04:40.24
this would be a
terrible time to be alive.
00:04:40.28\00:04:42.14
Might as well go out
and shoot myself, you know.
00:04:42.18\00:04:44.15
No, I wouldn't.
00:04:44.18\00:04:45.51
Of course, but I'm saying,
00:04:45.55\00:04:46.88
it's a terrible time to be alive
00:04:46.92\00:04:48.25
unless you know Jesus.
00:04:48.28\00:04:49.62
Now, we don't have to,
00:04:49.65\00:04:51.09
we don't have to worry
about what's gonna happen.
00:04:51.12\00:04:53.19
That's right. Right?
00:04:53.22\00:04:54.56
Consider the lilies
of the fields, right.
00:04:54.59\00:04:56.83
They don't toil nor spin, right?
00:04:56.86\00:04:59.73
And yet Jesus knows
all about the sparrow,
00:04:59.76\00:05:02.63
he doesn't worry
about what's gonna happen.
00:05:02.66\00:05:05.90
God's gonna take care of
him as I've said many times,
00:05:05.93\00:05:08.40
Yvonne, we've read
at the back of the book
00:05:08.44\00:05:10.77
and the back of the book says,
00:05:10.81\00:05:12.24
we win because but
what's important is
00:05:12.27\00:05:15.28
for those of us
who are Christians
00:05:15.31\00:05:17.05
to understand this and
then be able to teach it
00:05:17.08\00:05:20.68
to those around us, so
that no one has to be lost.
00:05:20.72\00:05:26.39
Everyone can have peace.
00:05:26.42\00:05:28.86
The Bible says in the end days
00:05:28.89\00:05:30.23
men's hearts
failing them for fear.
00:05:30.26\00:05:31.76
For fear. And that's right now.
00:05:31.79\00:05:33.90
So that's why Three
Angels Broadcasting Network
00:05:33.93\00:05:36.90
to give three angels' messages.
00:05:36.93\00:05:38.37
What we're
gonna talk about today
00:05:38.40\00:05:39.97
is all part of the
three angels' messages,
00:05:40.00\00:05:42.67
"Fear God and give glory to Him,
00:05:42.70\00:05:44.04
for the hour of
His judgment has come.
00:05:44.07\00:05:45.84
Worship Him who created,
00:05:45.87\00:05:47.28
you know, the
heavens and earth."
00:05:47.31\00:05:48.64
So this is a program,
00:05:48.68\00:05:50.01
now we sat down
just a little bit ago
00:05:50.05\00:05:52.31
I ask, Yvonne
00:05:52.35\00:05:54.02
three minutes before
or five minutes before
00:05:54.05\00:05:56.22
we went on the
air about joining us.
00:05:56.25\00:05:58.42
John, this morning we
were gonna do something else,
00:05:58.45\00:06:00.79
we had a cancellation.
00:06:00.82\00:06:02.19
Said, John, come
and minister to us.
00:06:02.22\00:06:03.99
John is full and
over flowing of ministry
00:06:04.03\00:06:08.26
and so we are
glad he is here today.
00:06:08.30\00:06:10.03
Praise God.
00:06:10.07\00:06:11.40
And of course, C.A.
Murray, Pastor Murray,
00:06:11.43\00:06:12.77
he's been following
prophecy for many, many years.
00:06:12.80\00:06:15.10
So we want you to
get your Bibles at home
00:06:15.14\00:06:17.77
and join with us.
00:06:17.81\00:06:19.14
It's gonna be
good, it's gonna be fun.
00:06:19.17\00:06:20.51
You know, when we look at
the world that surrounds us,
00:06:20.54\00:06:23.81
we had the papal
visit just some time ago.
00:06:23.85\00:06:26.45
And of course, news
media treated that almost like
00:06:26.48\00:06:29.02
the coming of a rock star
or a king of a foreign country.
00:06:29.05\00:06:32.09
Or the Lord. Or
the Lord himself.
00:06:32.12\00:06:34.56
And it is incumbent upon us
as Adventists, as Christians,
00:06:34.59\00:06:38.36
as people who are
looking for the coming of Christ
00:06:38.39\00:06:40.43
to put these things as
John well knows into context.
00:06:40.46\00:06:44.47
He didn't just blow
in, blow off and blow out,
00:06:44.50\00:06:46.87
but when you look at his coming,
00:06:46.90\00:06:48.24
you look at some of things
00:06:48.27\00:06:49.60
that are happening in the world.
00:06:49.64\00:06:50.97
Look at ISIS and you look
at the Christian Muslim debate
00:06:51.01\00:06:54.18
and some of the other things
00:06:54.21\00:06:55.54
that are happening
in a larger context,
00:06:55.58\00:06:56.91
there is a pattern there.
00:06:56.95\00:06:58.28
This is not gonna take
God's people by surprise.
00:06:58.31\00:07:00.15
Because we... So
when we see these things,
00:07:00.18\00:07:02.68
we ought to double
down on our Bible study
00:07:02.72\00:07:06.09
and look again at what
Christ has called us to do
00:07:06.12\00:07:09.32
because they are
simply road sign saying
00:07:09.36\00:07:13.73
you are 20 miles
out, you are 10 miles out,
00:07:13.76\00:07:16.10
you are 5 miles
out, you are almost there
00:07:16.13\00:07:18.20
and you need to be prepared
for the coming of the Lord.
00:07:18.23\00:07:20.97
John? That's right.
00:07:21.00\00:07:22.34
And so where we are right now,
00:07:22.37\00:07:23.71
we are looking at a
timeline of prophecy.
00:07:23.74\00:07:25.07
What's exciting
about this program
00:07:25.11\00:07:27.98
to all my guests
and those of you who
00:07:28.01\00:07:29.34
are watching the
program is that we are living
00:07:29.38\00:07:32.71
in the fulfillment of the things
00:07:32.75\00:07:34.52
that John and Daniel were shown.
00:07:34.55\00:07:37.35
So what gives us the
pause to be more excited,
00:07:37.39\00:07:40.16
not only excited
because excitement
00:07:40.19\00:07:41.82
can only go but so far,
00:07:41.86\00:07:43.43
but to be vigilant and to
come on television like this
00:07:43.46\00:07:46.80
irrespective of
different religions
00:07:46.83\00:07:48.66
but with respect of
all, to let people understand
00:07:48.70\00:07:51.30
where we are headed in the time
00:07:51.33\00:07:53.27
and the day in
which we are living.
00:07:53.30\00:07:54.70
And the Vatican has a lot to do,
00:07:54.74\00:07:56.74
whether silent or very visible,
the Vatican has a lot to do
00:07:56.77\00:08:00.78
with what is developing
on the scenes right now.
00:08:00.81\00:08:02.68
So we are gonna
dive into Revelation
00:08:02.71\00:08:04.41
or we're gonna
do music first or...
00:08:04.45\00:08:05.78
Okay. Yeah, absolutely.
00:08:05.81\00:08:07.15
C.A., I think
we have Ladye Love.
00:08:07.18\00:08:09.08
We do.
00:08:09.12\00:08:10.45
She is gonna sing
00:08:10.49\00:08:11.82
from the
Hallelujah, We're Home At Last!
00:08:11.85\00:08:13.52
Calvary Says Love and
that's the whole point that we,
00:08:13.56\00:08:17.89
that we need to
understand and we have to,
00:08:17.93\00:08:19.79
I think those of us
here is that everything
00:08:19.83\00:08:23.00
is around Calvary and
of course centers on Jesus.
00:08:23.03\00:08:25.43
In fact that the Son of God,
00:08:25.47\00:08:27.90
you know, God
would send His Son,
00:08:27.94\00:08:29.77
only begotten Son to
give His life for us,
00:08:29.80\00:08:33.74
frail human agents that
He could have just destroyed.
00:08:33.78\00:08:36.71
Only love, right, could
have held Him to the cross.
00:08:36.75\00:08:40.12
It wasn't the nails,
00:08:40.15\00:08:41.48
it was only the love
that held Jesus to the cross.
00:08:41.52\00:08:43.92
So when we look
at the big picture,
00:08:43.95\00:08:46.69
we have nothing to fear
00:08:46.72\00:08:48.22
because we know
that Jesus loves us.
00:08:48.26\00:08:51.13
And one of the
greatest songs ever,
00:08:51.16\00:08:53.06
"Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the Bible tells me so."
00:08:53.09\00:08:56.87
This is the
song Ladye Love sings
00:08:56.90\00:08:58.90
and I love how she
does it, ministers to us,
00:08:58.93\00:09:02.14
"Calvary Says Love to Me."
00:09:02.17\00:09:03.94
In compassion and love
00:09:18.95\00:09:23.49
He looked down to earth
00:09:23.53\00:09:28.23
Then He sent His Son
00:09:28.26\00:09:31.83
Born of virgin birth
00:09:31.87\00:09:37.34
He knew from Creation
00:09:37.37\00:09:41.48
What was to be
00:09:41.51\00:09:46.61
With great love for man
00:09:46.65\00:09:50.75
He planned Calvary
00:09:50.79\00:09:58.49
Calvary says love
00:09:58.53\00:10:02.66
To me
00:10:02.70\00:10:07.34
Like words
00:10:07.37\00:10:09.74
Could never say
00:10:09.77\00:10:16.61
The blood He shed
00:10:16.64\00:10:20.68
Was love written in red
00:10:20.72\00:10:26.02
Calvary says love
00:10:26.05\00:10:31.03
To me
00:10:31.06\00:10:35.16
Separated by sin
00:10:39.50\00:10:43.84
Was the whole human race
00:10:43.87\00:10:48.94
Man was destined to die
00:10:48.98\00:10:52.81
Were it not for grace
00:10:52.85\00:10:58.12
A cross and three nails
00:10:58.15\00:11:02.59
Never held Him there
00:11:02.62\00:11:07.26
He willingly chose
00:11:07.30\00:11:12.00
The cross to bear
00:11:12.03\00:11:19.04
Calvary says love
00:11:19.07\00:11:23.51
To me
00:11:23.55\00:11:28.12
Like words
00:11:28.15\00:11:30.45
Could never say
00:11:30.49\00:11:37.39
The blood He shed
00:11:37.43\00:11:41.56
Was love written in red
00:11:41.60\00:11:46.84
Calvary says love
00:11:46.87\00:11:51.51
To me
00:11:51.54\00:11:55.31
He's coming back again
00:11:55.34\00:11:59.81
To take me home with Him
00:11:59.85\00:12:04.55
That's love
00:12:04.59\00:12:06.52
Beyond Calvary
00:12:06.55\00:12:11.16
Calvary says love
00:12:14.46\00:12:18.83
To me
00:12:18.87\00:12:23.54
Like words
00:12:23.57\00:12:25.91
Could never say
00:12:25.94\00:12:32.65
The blood He shed
00:12:32.68\00:12:36.79
Was love written in red
00:12:36.82\00:12:42.19
Calvary says love
00:12:42.22\00:12:46.96
To me
00:12:47.00\00:12:51.20
The blood He shed
00:12:51.23\00:12:55.24
Was love written
00:12:55.27\00:12:58.14
In red
00:12:58.17\00:13:03.45
Calvary says love
00:13:03.48\00:13:07.58
To me
00:13:07.62\00:13:13.52
Calvary says love
00:13:13.56\00:13:19.63
To me
00:13:19.66\00:13:26.97
To me
00:13:27.00\00:13:30.87
Amen. Beautiful, Ladye.
00:13:38.35\00:13:41.38
Amen. Well, done.
00:13:41.42\00:13:42.75
What a beautiful song
00:13:42.78\00:13:44.12
and it bespeaks what
we are talking about.
00:13:44.15\00:13:45.79
I was in Buffalo, New
York this past Sabbath
00:13:45.82\00:13:47.86
and a woman who's just
been in the church a little bit
00:13:47.89\00:13:52.16
said, you know, I want
to give 3ABN my diamond ring
00:13:52.19\00:13:56.16
because I want to be
involved in evangelism,
00:13:56.20\00:13:59.20
I want to see the
Word of God move forward.
00:13:59.23\00:14:02.27
So she said, it's in my pocket.
00:14:02.30\00:14:03.77
She said, take this back
00:14:03.81\00:14:05.14
and give it to
whoever needs it at 3ABN.
00:14:05.17\00:14:07.71
In fact, she
said, Bruce and Tammy
00:14:07.74\00:14:09.08
because she's been watching.
00:14:09.11\00:14:10.48
Because I want
to be part of this,
00:14:10.51\00:14:11.85
because I know
Christ is coming soon.
00:14:11.88\00:14:13.42
Wonderful. Thank you so much.
00:14:13.45\00:14:14.78
Yeah, can't take this to heaven.
00:14:14.82\00:14:16.58
Pastor John, we want to kind of
put in your hands a little bit
00:14:16.62\00:14:18.49
because I know
you got a lot to say.
00:14:18.52\00:14:20.02
Okay. Are you ready?
00:14:20.06\00:14:22.56
Yeah, we are ready.
Fasten our seatbelts.
00:14:22.59\00:14:23.93
Because, you know,
as I mention welcome to,
00:14:23.96\00:14:27.10
welcome to the most
00:14:27.13\00:14:29.26
nonpolitically
correct network in the world.
00:14:29.30\00:14:32.50
Not about political correctness,
00:14:32.53\00:14:33.90
we are about
scriptural correctness.
00:14:33.94\00:14:35.27
All right. All right.
00:14:35.30\00:14:36.91
In the course of human history,
00:14:36.94\00:14:38.94
God has been so faithful
to us to give us a panorama
00:14:38.97\00:14:43.01
of the four major
kingdoms of the world.
00:14:43.04\00:14:45.58
Just to recap that,
00:14:45.61\00:14:47.62
Nebuchadnezzar received
the first vision in Daniel 2.
00:14:47.65\00:14:51.12
And then Daniel received
the second vision in Daniel 7.
00:14:51.15\00:14:54.32
As we know Nebuchadnezzar
received the vision about
00:14:54.36\00:14:56.69
the metal man, gold,
silver, bronze, iron,
00:14:56.73\00:14:59.76
then iron and clay.
00:14:59.79\00:15:01.30
And then Daniel received
the vision about the lion,
00:15:01.33\00:15:04.60
the bear, the
leopard and then the beast,
00:15:04.63\00:15:07.80
the nondescript
beast that had iron teeth,
00:15:07.84\00:15:10.71
seven heads and ten horns.
00:15:10.74\00:15:12.37
And so combining them together,
00:15:12.41\00:15:14.44
you will discover something
very interesting in Denial
00:15:14.48\00:15:18.18
that gold is more
valuable than silver,
00:15:18.21\00:15:22.48
silver is more
valuable than bronze,
00:15:22.52\00:15:24.69
bronze is definitely
more valuable than iron
00:15:24.72\00:15:27.52
and iron is surely
more valuable than clay.
00:15:27.56\00:15:30.19
You find that the value of
the kingdom is getting less,
00:15:30.23\00:15:33.33
but the strength of the
kingdom is getting more.
00:15:33.36\00:15:36.23
Because you find...
00:15:36.26\00:15:38.43
Let's go to the
lion now, the lion now.
00:15:38.47\00:15:41.20
A lion with eagle's
wings represented Babylon
00:15:41.24\00:15:43.51
and Babylon was
the golden kingdom.
00:15:43.54\00:15:45.31
Gold was replaced by the silver,
00:15:45.34\00:15:46.81
the Medo-Persian Empire
00:15:46.84\00:15:49.11
which had a bear with
three ribs in its mouth.
00:15:49.14\00:15:52.15
And then you had
the Grecian Empire,
00:15:52.18\00:15:54.15
the bronze empire
represented by the leopard
00:15:54.18\00:15:56.99
with four heads and four wings.
00:15:57.02\00:15:58.35
And then you had
the nondescript beast
00:15:58.39\00:16:01.69
with iron teeth
00:16:01.72\00:16:03.43
and then you have that
fourth metal which was iron.
00:16:03.46\00:16:06.49
So Rome represents that
fourth beast of Daniel 7
00:16:06.53\00:16:11.43
and the fourth
element in Daniel Chapter 2.
00:16:11.47\00:16:14.60
So now, when you
think about the Bible,
00:16:14.64\00:16:16.44
what's so
wonderful about this, Danny,
00:16:16.47\00:16:18.54
and I want to
keep referring to you
00:16:18.57\00:16:19.91
but those of you who
are watching the program,
00:16:19.94\00:16:21.38
what's so wonderful
about this is there are no more
00:16:21.41\00:16:25.15
earthly kingdoms
after the fourth beast.
00:16:25.18\00:16:27.25
Okay.
00:16:27.28\00:16:28.62
There are no
more earthly churches
00:16:28.65\00:16:30.65
after the seventh
church of Laodicea.
00:16:30.69\00:16:33.22
So if we are living
in the seventh church
00:16:33.25\00:16:34.72
which we are, Laodicea,
the condition that is lukewarm,
00:16:34.76\00:16:38.33
then we know
the very next church
00:16:38.36\00:16:39.69
is the church triumphant.
00:16:39.73\00:16:41.06
Amen to that. Amen.
00:16:41.10\00:16:42.43
This is the church militant
00:16:42.46\00:16:43.80
to be followed by
the church triumphant.
00:16:43.83\00:16:45.77
We also know Daniel 7:23,
the Lord speaks about Rome,
00:16:45.80\00:16:50.17
the fourth beast that
will inhabit the earth
00:16:50.21\00:16:52.67
or even more than inhabit
the earth, encompass the earth.
00:16:52.71\00:16:55.04
He says, Daniel 7:23,
00:16:55.08\00:16:58.81
"Thus he said, The fourth beast
00:16:58.85\00:17:01.15
shall be the fourth
kingdom on the earth,
00:17:01.18\00:17:04.19
"which shall be
diverse" or different
00:17:04.22\00:17:06.35
"from all other kingdoms,
00:17:06.39\00:17:09.16
and shall
devour the whole earth,
00:17:09.19\00:17:11.96
trample it and
break it in pieces."
00:17:11.99\00:17:15.30
And then its speaks
about the description of this,
00:17:15.33\00:17:17.47
it gives another
series of descriptions about
00:17:17.50\00:17:20.84
how He will persecute
the sins of the Most High,
00:17:20.87\00:17:23.24
how He will intend
to change times and laws
00:17:23.27\00:17:25.24
which are all totally synonymous
00:17:25.27\00:17:27.94
with the actions of
Rome during the Dark Ages,
00:17:27.98\00:17:29.84
the church of the Dark Ages.
00:17:29.88\00:17:31.55
Now, the church of Dark Ages
primarily represented a mixture
00:17:31.58\00:17:34.95
between pagan and papal Rome.
00:17:34.98\00:17:38.32
When pagan Rome is going
down, papal Rome is coming up.
00:17:38.35\00:17:41.22
In other words
Rome adopted a religion.
00:17:41.26\00:17:43.56
Up until that point,
00:17:43.59\00:17:44.93
all the actions
of Rome were pagan.
00:17:44.96\00:17:47.40
You know, you
have Caesar Augustus,
00:17:47.43\00:17:49.30
you have Julius Caesar
00:17:49.33\00:17:51.37
this is where we
get August and July.
00:17:51.40\00:17:55.00
They were so desirous of
being gods in their pagan right
00:17:55.04\00:17:58.17
that they stole
two days from February
00:17:58.21\00:18:00.58
to extend their month
00:18:00.61\00:18:01.94
that's why
February is only 28 days.
00:18:01.98\00:18:03.75
They wanted to be worship.
00:18:03.78\00:18:05.11
So when Rome,
when papal Rome rose,
00:18:05.15\00:18:08.95
papal Rome took
on the same position.
00:18:08.98\00:18:11.69
It was simply baptized paganism
was now Rome's Christianity.
00:18:11.72\00:18:16.36
For those who don't
know what paganism is
00:18:16.39\00:18:18.69
would you explain that a bit?
00:18:18.73\00:18:20.10
Well, paganism is
everything that is anti-god.
00:18:20.13\00:18:23.90
To be very candid
with you, God is left out
00:18:23.93\00:18:26.37
and it has to do
with a cult worship,
00:18:26.40\00:18:29.47
worship of the
stars, the sun, the moon,
00:18:29.50\00:18:32.14
the elements everything that
disconnects itself from God.
00:18:32.17\00:18:35.11
In other words, the
perversion of true religion.
00:18:35.14\00:18:37.88
And so now the Bible takes
us to Revelation Chapter 13
00:18:37.91\00:18:40.65
and I want you to go there
00:18:40.68\00:18:42.02
if you have your
Bibles with me, with you
00:18:42.05\00:18:44.05
and I want you to notice
and let me add another caveat.
00:18:44.09\00:18:49.36
When we look at the unfolding
of Revelation talks about,
00:18:49.39\00:18:52.36
we have to keep in
mind and I want to say
00:18:52.39\00:18:54.13
this is very important
that the great controversy
00:18:54.16\00:18:57.07
is not between
Christ and the Vatican,
00:18:57.10\00:19:00.70
it's between Christ and Satan.
00:19:00.74\00:19:02.44
Okay. All right.
00:19:02.47\00:19:03.81
But the Lord has
His church on earth
00:19:03.84\00:19:06.84
and for everything that God has,
00:19:06.88\00:19:08.24
Satan seek to counterfeit it.
00:19:08.28\00:19:10.78
You know, we're here to
counteract the counterfeit.
00:19:10.81\00:19:14.48
So the Lord has
established the church.
00:19:14.52\00:19:16.65
Satan doesn't have a church
but he is perverted the woman
00:19:16.69\00:19:19.75
to represent all the
elements that He has pushed.
00:19:19.79\00:19:22.09
You know, your
Revelation Chapter 12
00:19:22.12\00:19:23.93
the woman clothed with
the sun, the moon and stars.
00:19:23.96\00:19:26.80
Then in Revelation Chapter 17,
00:19:26.83\00:19:28.26
the woman sitting
on a red colored beast
00:19:28.30\00:19:32.40
wearing purple and red,
the color blue is missing
00:19:32.43\00:19:36.81
which is the color
of the Commandments.
00:19:36.84\00:19:39.01
So she doesn't
keep the Commandments
00:19:39.04\00:19:40.41
and she is
referred to as a harlot
00:19:40.44\00:19:42.11
but she has daughters.
00:19:42.14\00:19:43.48
So this false
church is not by itself.
00:19:43.51\00:19:46.78
It has systems around
the world that represents it.
00:19:46.82\00:19:50.12
I'm coming right
down the pipe here.
00:19:50.15\00:19:51.79
Yeah. Sure. Okay.
00:19:51.82\00:19:53.15
And so when we look
at Revelation Chapter 13,
00:19:53.19\00:19:55.02
one of the things
that I prefaces by saying
00:19:55.06\00:19:58.09
is because the devil
doesn't have a church,
00:19:58.13\00:20:01.66
he does what you have seen
prevalent throughout scripture.
00:20:01.70\00:20:05.10
He pursues the woman.
Now, let's look at that.
00:20:05.13\00:20:07.90
In Genesis, what did he
do? He deceived the woman.
00:20:07.94\00:20:12.67
He spoke subtle
words to the woman
00:20:12.71\00:20:15.81
and ended up deceiving Eve.
00:20:15.84\00:20:18.35
Now that's where
the battle between
00:20:18.38\00:20:19.71
the serpent and the woman was
00:20:19.75\00:20:21.45
because he lost the
battle between him and Christ.
00:20:21.48\00:20:23.39
He was cast to the earth.
00:20:23.42\00:20:24.75
So now what we
saw start in Genesis
00:20:24.79\00:20:27.92
has carried itself through
all the way to Revelation.
00:20:27.96\00:20:31.33
So you have the woman
and the serpent in the garden
00:20:31.36\00:20:34.33
and then you have
the woman and the serpent
00:20:34.36\00:20:36.46
in the wilderness,
00:20:36.50\00:20:38.30
then you have the
woman and the serpent
00:20:38.33\00:20:39.67
at the time of
the birth of Jesus.
00:20:39.70\00:20:41.67
He seeks to kill
Jesus as He was being born.
00:20:41.70\00:20:44.71
And then you have
the woman and the serpent
00:20:44.74\00:20:46.07
again in Revelation Chapter 12.
00:20:46.11\00:20:47.61
So look at this before
I give you Revelation 13,
00:20:47.64\00:20:49.94
look at Revelation 12.
00:20:49.98\00:20:52.08
It says now, verse 1,
00:20:52.11\00:20:53.45
"Now a great sign
appeared in heaven,
00:20:53.48\00:20:56.02
a woman clothed with the sun..."
00:20:56.05\00:20:58.75
I'm reading in the
New King James Version.
00:20:58.79\00:21:00.59
"With the moon under her feet,
00:21:00.62\00:21:01.96
and on her head a garland
or crown of twelve stars."
00:21:01.99\00:21:05.96
And notice what
it says in verse 2,
00:21:05.99\00:21:08.23
"And then being with child,
00:21:08.26\00:21:09.86
she cried out in labor
and in pain to give birth."
00:21:09.90\00:21:13.67
But here's the key,
00:21:13.70\00:21:15.04
this is where
the dragon comes in.
00:21:15.07\00:21:16.54
"And another sign
appeared in heaven,
00:21:16.57\00:21:18.34
behold, a great, fiery dragon
00:21:18.37\00:21:21.54
having seven
heads and ten horns,
00:21:21.58\00:21:23.21
and seven crowns or
diadems on his heads."
00:21:23.24\00:21:26.15
Who is this dragon?
00:21:26.18\00:21:27.52
Verse 9, "So the
great dragon was cast out,
00:21:27.55\00:21:31.42
that serpent of old,
called the Devil and Satan,
00:21:31.45\00:21:34.19
which deceives the whole
world, he was cast to the earth,
00:21:34.22\00:21:36.56
and his angels
were cast out with him."
00:21:36.59\00:21:38.59
So now this battle
that began in heaven
00:21:38.63\00:21:40.36
as Revelation 12:7
tells us, he lost there
00:21:40.40\00:21:43.43
but in the
garden he was successful
00:21:43.47\00:21:44.90
in deceiving the woman.
00:21:44.93\00:21:46.90
But God in His mercy,
00:21:46.94\00:21:49.87
and this is a two
hander as Danny would say.
00:21:49.90\00:21:51.87
God in his mercy after
establishing His church,
00:21:51.91\00:21:54.78
Danny, has preserved the
church throughout the ages
00:21:54.81\00:21:57.88
because Satan
could not defeat Christ,
00:21:57.91\00:22:01.02
so he's come after the church.
00:22:01.05\00:22:02.45
This is where
we're headed with that.
00:22:02.48\00:22:03.89
Look at what the Lord
did to help the woman.
00:22:03.92\00:22:06.55
Look Revelation 12:13.
00:22:06.59\00:22:10.36
So I knew you're going there.
00:22:10.39\00:22:12.09
"Now when the dragon saw
00:22:12.13\00:22:13.50
that he had been
cast to the earth,
00:22:13.53\00:22:15.73
he persecuted the woman
00:22:15.76\00:22:17.47
who gave birth
to the male Child.
00:22:17.50\00:22:20.30
But the woman..."
00:22:20.34\00:22:21.74
This is what God did
to preserve the church
00:22:21.77\00:22:24.01
"Was given two
wings of a great eagle,
00:22:24.04\00:22:25.94
that she might fly into
the wilderness to her place,`
00:22:25.97\00:22:29.81
where she is nourished
00:22:29.84\00:22:31.18
for a time and
times and half a time,
00:22:31.21\00:22:33.28
from the
presence of the serpent."
00:22:33.31\00:22:34.75
So during the Dark Ages,
00:22:34.78\00:22:36.12
1,260 years the Lord
preserved the church.
00:22:36.15\00:22:38.75
During the time of persecution,
00:22:38.79\00:22:40.12
God hid His
church in the wilderness.
00:22:40.16\00:22:43.26
Now get this, in
the mountains of Europe,
00:22:43.29\00:22:45.99
in the Swiss Alps,
in the Italian Alps
00:22:46.03\00:22:48.63
we have the Waldensians
and what a number of the other,
00:22:48.66\00:22:51.37
the Burgundians,
what do we have out there?
00:22:51.40\00:22:53.03
Yeah, the
Albigenses, the Waldensian,
00:22:53.07\00:22:54.67
you have got the Cathari,
00:22:54.70\00:22:56.67
you got so many groups
that that were persecuted
00:22:56.71\00:22:59.74
and hid in the
mountains for centuries.
00:22:59.77\00:23:03.31
That's right. Yes.
00:23:03.35\00:23:04.68
But Rome pursued them
in the mountains of Europe.
00:23:04.71\00:23:08.12
It got to the place
where under the Church of Rome,
00:23:08.15\00:23:11.92
they could not freely worship.
00:23:11.95\00:23:14.36
And so we have a transition,
00:23:14.39\00:23:16.36
the Lord says, if
they cannot worship freely
00:23:16.39\00:23:18.53
in all throughout Europe,
00:23:18.56\00:23:20.16
I'm gonna help her
by doing something.
00:23:20.20\00:23:22.23
This is the transition
verse 16, well verse 15.
00:23:22.26\00:23:27.44
Read that for me, Pastor C.A.
00:23:27.47\00:23:29.44
Verse 15 of
Revelation Chapter 12,
00:23:29.47\00:23:31.64
"So the serpent spewed water
out of his mouth like a flood
00:23:31.67\00:23:34.94
after the woman,
that he might cause her
00:23:34.98\00:23:37.81
to be carried
away by the flood."
00:23:37.85\00:23:40.78
So he is trying
to drown the church
00:23:40.82\00:23:43.02
and he tried to
drown the church.
00:23:43.05\00:23:44.79
The Protestant reformation
00:23:44.82\00:23:46.29
began with Martin
Luther, Zwingli, Hus, Wycliffe
00:23:46.32\00:23:49.76
and all the other names
00:23:49.79\00:23:51.46
but the counter
reformation, Danny,
00:23:51.49\00:23:53.60
was the Roman church
started a counter culture
00:23:53.63\00:23:57.63
against the spread of God's word
00:23:57.67\00:24:00.17
by introducing art,
music, industry, science,
00:24:00.20\00:24:04.87
and the people of Europe
became very secular minded.
00:24:04.91\00:24:07.78
The church began to die
00:24:07.81\00:24:09.18
and the church went
under severe persecution.
00:24:09.21\00:24:11.58
So when it was no longer
free to worship in Europe,
00:24:11.61\00:24:15.62
we have a group
called the pilgrims
00:24:15.65\00:24:18.92
who came to America.
00:24:18.95\00:24:22.56
The three ships the--
00:24:22.59\00:24:25.06
Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria.
00:24:25.09\00:24:27.40
Nina, Pinta and the Santa Maria.
00:24:27.43\00:24:28.83
Some historians
here. They're historians.
00:24:28.86\00:24:30.80
And they--
00:24:30.83\00:24:32.17
I'm almost old
enough, I remember.
00:24:32.20\00:24:35.07
You remember
the ship pulling in.
00:24:35.10\00:24:37.64
And they came to
America at a time
00:24:37.67\00:24:40.51
when the world was
taught that it was flat
00:24:40.54\00:24:44.01
and if you sailed
for any length of time
00:24:44.05\00:24:45.68
in any particular direction
you can fall off the edge.
00:24:45.71\00:24:48.92
They came to America
00:24:48.95\00:24:50.29
and look at what the
Bible says in verse 16.
00:24:50.32\00:24:51.95
You want to read that
one, Yvonne, verse 16.
00:24:51.99\00:24:53.76
"But the earth helped the woman,
00:24:53.79\00:24:55.32
and the earth opened its
mouth and swallowed up the flood
00:24:55.36\00:24:58.23
which the dragon had
spewed out of his mouth."
00:24:58.26\00:25:00.76
Okay, so now Europe can
no longer house Christians,
00:25:00.80\00:25:03.70
they couldn't freely worship.
00:25:03.73\00:25:05.07
They were
persecuted, put to death.
00:25:05.10\00:25:06.43
Millions, more than
15 million Christians
00:25:06.47\00:25:08.17
were persecuted by Rome
00:25:08.20\00:25:09.57
and, you know, what,
Danny, Rome acknowledges that.
00:25:09.60\00:25:11.94
Pope Francis, he
said, he apologized
00:25:11.97\00:25:14.84
for this great persecution
00:25:14.88\00:25:16.41
led loose by the Church
of Rome during the Dark Ages.
00:25:16.44\00:25:18.45
So they acknowledged that.
00:25:18.48\00:25:20.22
But why is he here in America?
00:25:20.25\00:25:22.15
Because the
earth opened its mouth.
00:25:22.18\00:25:24.82
Now go to Revelation
Chapter 13 and Pastor C.A.,
00:25:24.85\00:25:29.36
now we are going to introduce
America into the scenario
00:25:29.39\00:25:32.69
because the
earth opened its mouth.
00:25:32.73\00:25:35.46
When the pilgrims fled
00:25:35.50\00:25:37.57
the earth gave
her a safe heaven.
00:25:37.60\00:25:40.74
America, this
lightly populated continent
00:25:40.77\00:25:45.04
where mostly only Indians lived
00:25:45.07\00:25:47.38
made it a haven of safety
for those who came from Europe
00:25:47.41\00:25:50.98
and look at how
the Bible describes.
00:25:51.01\00:25:52.48
Remember the
earth opened its mouth.
00:25:52.51\00:25:54.32
Revelation 13:11, Pastor C.A.
00:25:54.35\00:25:56.48
Picking up at verse 11,
"Then I saw another beast
00:25:56.52\00:25:59.25
coming up out of the earth,
00:25:59.29\00:26:02.56
and he had two horns like a lamb
00:26:02.59\00:26:05.09
and spoke like a dragon."
00:26:05.13\00:26:06.63
Now you ask yourself a question,
00:26:06.66\00:26:08.06
wait a minute, this very place
00:26:08.10\00:26:09.66
that God led the
Christians for safety
00:26:09.70\00:26:14.30
has now been
pursued by the dragon.
00:26:14.34\00:26:17.91
Satan wants to come here now too
00:26:17.94\00:26:19.54
because this who is here
00:26:19.57\00:26:21.34
that he is
concerned about getting after?
00:26:21.38\00:26:23.61
The woman. The woman, right.
00:26:23.65\00:26:24.98
The church.
00:26:25.01\00:26:26.35
And who is this woman?
00:26:26.38\00:26:27.72
Somebody read Revelation 12:17.
00:26:27.75\00:26:30.59
"And the dragon was
enraged with the woman,
00:26:30.62\00:26:33.25
and he went to make war
with the rest of her offspring,
00:26:33.29\00:26:35.99
who keep the commandments of God
00:26:36.02\00:26:38.13
and have the
testimony of Jesus Christ."
00:26:38.16\00:26:40.10
So it is so hard for
me to keep quiet on this.
00:26:40.13\00:26:41.83
No, go ahead and finish that.
00:26:41.86\00:26:43.87
It's just that the
dragon has persecuted
00:26:43.90\00:26:47.67
for 1,200 plus years, the woman.
00:26:47.70\00:26:51.71
Now he is going after
the rest of her offspring.
00:26:51.74\00:26:53.98
The rest of them. Yeah.
00:26:54.01\00:26:55.34
So he wants
total, total domination.
00:26:55.38\00:26:58.88
He is persecuted so the
woman runs to the wilderness
00:26:58.91\00:27:01.88
and now he is right behind her
00:27:01.92\00:27:03.25
so he comes here
to the wilderness
00:27:03.28\00:27:05.45
and we call it
"wilderness" in quote.
00:27:05.49\00:27:07.86
Because he
wants total domination
00:27:07.89\00:27:09.39
and there is only
one group of people
00:27:09.42\00:27:11.69
truly if you pass this
00:27:11.73\00:27:13.66
that are keeping
the Commandments of God
00:27:13.70\00:27:15.96
and have the testimony of Jesus.
00:27:16.00\00:27:17.40
And that takes
us to another thing
00:27:17.43\00:27:19.17
but we can stop
right here with that.
00:27:19.20\00:27:21.44
But he wants total domination
00:27:21.47\00:27:23.54
and wherever the woman
is, wherever her offspring are
00:27:23.57\00:27:26.11
that's where he is gonna go
00:27:26.14\00:27:27.48
because he wants
to dominate them.
00:27:27.51\00:27:28.84
But how does he do it, now
00:27:28.88\00:27:30.21
because he doesn't
come into, because he--
00:27:30.25\00:27:33.82
Let me grab myself here.
00:27:33.85\00:27:35.18
Because he was so known
00:27:35.22\00:27:37.92
to be a
persecuting power in Europe,
00:27:37.95\00:27:40.36
he couldn't come
here the same way.
00:27:40.39\00:27:41.72
Couldn't come that way, correct.
00:27:41.76\00:27:43.09
Now, I often say the way
that Satan began his work
00:27:43.12\00:27:46.33
as the way he
is going to end it.
00:27:46.36\00:27:48.26
"The serpent was more subtle
than any beast of the field
00:27:48.30\00:27:51.40
which the Lord God had made."
00:27:51.43\00:27:52.77
Genesis Chapter 3.
00:27:52.80\00:27:54.14
So now Rome sends a
subtle representative,
00:27:54.17\00:27:58.04
but we have to find
out who is behind it.
00:27:58.07\00:28:00.28
Revelation 13:2,
okay, the end of verse 2,
00:28:00.31\00:28:08.25
matter of fact, yeah, the
end of verse 2, Pastor C.A.
00:28:08.28\00:28:10.55
just and the dragon.
00:28:10.59\00:28:11.92
You are in verse?
00:28:11.95\00:28:13.29
Revelation 13:2.
00:28:13.32\00:28:14.66
Okay, we go, okay.
00:28:14.69\00:28:17.53
"The dragon gave him his power,
00:28:17.56\00:28:19.06
his throne, and
great authority."
00:28:19.09\00:28:21.43
Okay.
00:28:21.46\00:28:22.80
And so the Vatican,
00:28:22.83\00:28:25.47
the power, the throne and
the great authority he has,
00:28:25.50\00:28:29.70
has been shifted now
00:28:29.74\00:28:31.61
from the mountains of
Europe to the plains of America.
00:28:31.64\00:28:37.25
But he has been patient
00:28:37.28\00:28:41.32
in the time he need to come here
00:28:41.35\00:28:42.68
because the Vatican
couldn't come here in the 1700s,
00:28:42.72\00:28:46.65
couldn't come here in the 1800s,
00:28:46.69\00:28:48.42
couldn't come in the 1900s,
00:28:48.46\00:28:50.63
couldn't come
even up to the time
00:28:50.66\00:28:53.09
that President
Kennedy was being considered
00:28:53.13\00:28:56.80
to be president
being a Catholic.
00:28:56.83\00:28:59.20
America was
terrified of the idea
00:28:59.23\00:29:01.40
that we could create an
allegiance with Catholicism.
00:29:01.44\00:29:05.27
So the timing is right
because what happens is
00:29:05.31\00:29:08.14
this nation, this
country that is in fact,
00:29:08.18\00:29:11.25
now the lamb like and
I want to go back to that
00:29:11.28\00:29:14.52
Revelation 13:11,
00:29:14.55\00:29:15.88
"I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth,
00:29:15.92\00:29:17.39
he had two horns like a lamb
and he spoke like a dragon."
00:29:17.42\00:29:19.92
Pastor C.A., as a theologian
what are the two horns
00:29:19.95\00:29:23.49
that America
represents, do you remember?
00:29:23.53\00:29:26.09
Religious liberty
and civil liberty.
00:29:26.13\00:29:28.13
Religious liberty
and civil liberty.
00:29:28.16\00:29:29.90
We're the only world
power that gives people
00:29:29.93\00:29:34.60
the freedom to worship
00:29:34.64\00:29:36.60
and the freedom
from the government
00:29:36.64\00:29:38.64
and its tyranny.
00:29:38.67\00:29:40.28
Now we know it's
changing, all right.
00:29:40.31\00:29:43.38
But under this
auspices an allegiance is made,
00:29:43.41\00:29:46.48
and I'm gonna go
down and walk through this
00:29:46.51\00:29:48.62
because when
America came into view,
00:29:48.65\00:29:50.85
it came into play as a
place where you can worship
00:29:50.89\00:29:53.66
as you're free,
as you freely desire
00:29:53.69\00:29:55.99
but look at what happened
00:29:56.02\00:29:57.36
in verse 12 of
Revelation Chapter 13.
00:29:57.39\00:29:59.29
Revelation 13:12, Yvonne.
00:29:59.33\00:30:01.36
"And he
exercises all the authority
00:30:01.40\00:30:03.37
of the first
beast in his presence,
00:30:03.40\00:30:05.33
and causes the earth
and those who dwell in it
00:30:05.37\00:30:08.00
to worship the first beast,
whose deadly wound was healed."
00:30:08.04\00:30:11.51
So the first beast
whose deadly wound was healed
00:30:11.54\00:30:13.34
was who, Pastor C.A.?
00:30:13.38\00:30:14.71
That was the
church in the Middle Ages
00:30:14.74\00:30:17.48
or the church that is identified
00:30:17.51\00:30:20.42
in Revelation 13:1-11, 1-10.
00:30:20.45\00:30:23.89
So you are harkening back
00:30:23.92\00:30:25.25
to that this whole establishment
00:30:25.29\00:30:26.99
of who this beast was,
00:30:27.02\00:30:28.36
where he came from
and what he is all about.
00:30:28.39\00:30:30.33
John, I think we
need to add this.
00:30:30.36\00:30:32.33
When we talk about antichrist,
00:30:32.36\00:30:34.76
we are not talking
about per se against Christ.
00:30:34.80\00:30:37.87
We're talking about
00:30:37.90\00:30:39.23
taking to yourself the
prerogatives of Christ.
00:30:39.27\00:30:41.30
That's right in place of.
00:30:41.34\00:30:42.67
In place of Christ.
00:30:42.70\00:30:44.04
So when you say,
00:30:44.07\00:30:45.41
well, this entity
looks like the church
00:30:45.44\00:30:47.94
and looks like Christ
00:30:47.98\00:30:49.58
but when it says, I can
do what is left of Christ.
00:30:49.61\00:30:52.41
When it says, I
can forgive sins.
00:30:52.45\00:30:54.18
When it says, I can
do only those things
00:30:54.22\00:30:56.18
that Christ has
been called to do,
00:30:56.22\00:30:59.49
then it is antichrist in that,
00:30:59.52\00:31:01.42
Danny, it is
taking the place of Christ
00:31:01.46\00:31:03.63
and the prerogatives of Christ,
00:31:03.66\00:31:05.69
so that broadens
our understanding
00:31:05.73\00:31:07.60
of who antichrist was
00:31:07.63\00:31:09.03
and allows us to understand that
00:31:09.06\00:31:10.57
when we are
talking about antichrist,
00:31:10.60\00:31:11.93
we are not
talking about some demon
00:31:11.97\00:31:13.30
or some demonic entity.
00:31:13.34\00:31:14.97
We are talking
about a religious entity
00:31:15.00\00:31:17.44
that is trying to do
what Christ has called to do.
00:31:17.47\00:31:20.04
And remember with
Daniel 7 and Revelation 13,
00:31:20.08\00:31:22.81
parleys to get on this,
00:31:22.84\00:31:24.18
this is his the whole
world wonders after the beast.
00:31:24.21\00:31:27.55
This fourth power
Rome is going to trample
00:31:27.58\00:31:29.45
and break down all
the powers of the earth,
00:31:29.48\00:31:31.65
but he is not going to do it
unless he is allowed to do it.
00:31:31.69\00:31:35.49
You see, the Vatican
can't come to America
00:31:35.52\00:31:37.83
unless he is invited.
00:31:37.86\00:31:39.59
And being invited to
America, the United States
00:31:39.63\00:31:42.46
has established a platform
that is open dialog with Rome
00:31:42.50\00:31:46.13
and through the evangelicals
00:31:46.17\00:31:48.70
there is a
coalition coming together.
00:31:48.74\00:31:50.61
We know that many years ago,
00:31:50.64\00:31:51.97
I say may be about
six to seven years ago,
00:31:52.01\00:31:53.54
may be almost 10 now,
00:31:53.58\00:31:55.34
the Protestants and Catholics
signed a document of agreement
00:31:55.38\00:31:58.51
on certain tenants of faith
00:31:58.55\00:32:00.52
but a greater
push under Tony Palmer,
00:32:00.55\00:32:04.32
he died not too long ago,
00:32:04.35\00:32:06.25
lost his life in a car accident.
00:32:06.29\00:32:07.79
He was pushing the unity
of evangelicals and Catholics.
00:32:07.82\00:32:11.89
And so what's
happening in America, Danny,
00:32:11.93\00:32:13.80
is the evangelical
church, the daughters of Rome
00:32:13.83\00:32:17.90
are reaching to find ways
to join and unite with Rome.
00:32:17.93\00:32:23.51
And you will
discover in this clip
00:32:23.54\00:32:25.04
that I know they
are preparing to show.
00:32:25.07\00:32:26.41
I'm gonna lay the foundation,
then I'll comment afterwards.
00:32:26.44\00:32:29.58
When Brad and I
were invited to come to--
00:32:29.61\00:32:32.41
to go to Washington DC
00:32:32.45\00:32:33.78
to listen to the
speech of Pope Francis,
00:32:33.82\00:32:37.19
I had gone there
and I thank the Lord
00:32:37.22\00:32:38.62
that 3ABN sent me
00:32:38.65\00:32:40.19
with all the prior understanding
00:32:40.22\00:32:41.62
of the world is
wondering after the beast.
00:32:41.66\00:32:44.59
Now what you are
gonna hear in this clip
00:32:44.63\00:32:45.96
that's gonna be played,
00:32:45.99\00:32:47.33
you are going to hear
the exuberance, the vibrancy
00:32:47.36\00:32:50.23
and you are gonna
hear different people
00:32:50.27\00:32:51.60
of different
religions say more than once
00:32:51.63\00:32:54.87
that even though
I'm not Catholic,
00:32:54.90\00:32:56.24
even though I'm not
this, even though I'm not that,
00:32:56.27\00:32:59.21
I look at him as the
world religious leader.
00:32:59.24\00:33:02.84
And then when the Bible says,
00:33:02.88\00:33:04.21
"All the world will
wonder after the beast"
00:33:04.25\00:33:07.05
keep this in mind carefully,
00:33:07.08\00:33:09.15
we're not talking
about Catholic people,
00:33:09.18\00:33:10.95
we are talking about
the head of a system.
00:33:10.99\00:33:13.46
Widely important to
the head of a system
00:33:13.49\00:33:16.06
that has his power
rooted and I got to say this
00:33:16.09\00:33:20.63
in the manipulation of
Satan behind the scenes.
00:33:20.66\00:33:24.70
No earthly man could
have the kind of clout
00:33:24.73\00:33:26.90
and recognition and power
and throne in great authority
00:33:26.94\00:33:30.17
that Pope, that the Pope
has whether it's Pope Francis,
00:33:30.21\00:33:34.54
Pope John Paul
II, Pope Benedict,
00:33:34.58\00:33:37.01
whoever sits in that seat,
00:33:37.05\00:33:38.38
no earthly power could
have that kind of authority.
00:33:38.41\00:33:40.95
Look at this clip
and when we come back
00:33:40.98\00:33:42.32
we will give you some commentary
00:33:42.35\00:33:43.79
in reference to
what you're about to see.
00:33:43.82\00:33:45.65
For the very first time
00:33:45.69\00:33:48.02
a Pope comes to visit
America and address Congress.
00:33:48.06\00:33:52.43
What a day.
00:33:52.46\00:33:53.80
America has
long awaited this day
00:33:53.83\00:33:57.60
and it has finally come.
00:33:57.63\00:33:59.90
This is an event
00:33:59.93\00:34:01.27
that we know will
change the face of America
00:34:01.30\00:34:03.41
for religious and
political reasons.
00:34:03.44\00:34:05.41
Why are you
excited to be here today?
00:34:05.44\00:34:07.44
Well, first of all, I'm excited
00:34:07.48\00:34:08.88
because I was on an
elevator and one gentleman said,
00:34:08.91\00:34:12.71
"Your boss is in town."
00:34:12.75\00:34:14.45
I thought that's
great. He is my boss.
00:34:14.48\00:34:16.15
He is our greatest
superior if you want to say.
00:34:16.18\00:34:19.42
So I'm thrilled that
we're privileged to be here
00:34:19.45\00:34:23.29
to be in his
presence and I'm sure
00:34:23.32\00:34:24.99
that he is a holy man
00:34:25.03\00:34:26.36
and he's gonna say
whatever needs to be said
00:34:26.39\00:34:28.86
for the American people.
00:34:28.90\00:34:30.23
Pope Francis brings a new
face to the Catholic Church
00:34:30.27\00:34:32.77
and I think it's
just really inspiring
00:34:32.80\00:34:34.14
to see him in real life.
00:34:34.17\00:34:35.50
Think it's something
00:34:35.54\00:34:36.87
I wouldn't be able to experience
00:34:36.91\00:34:38.24
any other time really.
00:34:38.27\00:34:39.61
He is a beacon of hope,
00:34:39.64\00:34:41.24
he is the representation
of the Catholic Church
00:34:41.28\00:34:43.65
and of Christianity in general
00:34:43.68\00:34:45.25
and not too many people
will be able to do this.
00:34:45.28\00:34:47.68
Well, for me it means a lot
00:34:47.72\00:34:49.32
because I was Jesuit educated
and he is a Jesuit himself
00:34:49.35\00:34:52.35
and I think he's brought a
lot of energy back to the church
00:34:52.39\00:34:54.82
as a lifelong Catholic.
00:34:54.86\00:34:56.62
Obviously the
church hasn't been strong
00:34:56.66\00:34:58.53
as it has in the past.
00:34:58.56\00:35:00.20
And I think he's just
reenergizing in a lot of way.
00:35:00.23\00:35:02.36
Well, I think the
Pope sets a great platform
00:35:02.40\00:35:04.77
for that having one person
00:35:04.80\00:35:06.17
representing all
religions in general.
00:35:06.20\00:35:08.57
He is not only set to one belief
00:35:08.60\00:35:11.34
but he respects everyone.
00:35:11.37\00:35:12.91
Okay.
00:35:12.94\00:35:14.28
I think people of
all kind get onboard
00:35:14.31\00:35:15.81
with what he's saying
00:35:15.84\00:35:17.18
and like I'm not
necessarily Catholic
00:35:17.21\00:35:19.08
but I'm Christian,
00:35:19.11\00:35:20.45
I am mostly on the Baptist side,
00:35:20.48\00:35:22.18
but I agree what he is saying
00:35:22.22\00:35:23.99
and I know that my
church does as well.
00:35:24.02\00:35:26.09
Just to be able to witness him
00:35:26.12\00:35:28.82
and to celebrate mass with him,
00:35:28.86\00:35:31.86
I don't want to claim public
00:35:31.89\00:35:33.23
but it was the
most emotional peaceful.
00:35:33.26\00:35:36.50
People were so
happy, people were so kind
00:35:36.53\00:35:39.17
and he just makes you feel
00:35:39.20\00:35:41.80
like there is hope in the world.
00:35:41.84\00:35:43.30
I think it doesn't matter
what denomination you are.
00:35:43.34\00:35:45.41
This is like going for
many people to a wedding,
00:35:45.44\00:35:47.94
whether you are a
member of that faith or not,
00:35:47.98\00:35:50.15
you attend that
wedding and you believe
00:35:50.18\00:35:51.65
that those vows are sacred.
00:35:51.68\00:35:53.15
The words from the Pope
are always gonna be sacred
00:35:53.18\00:35:55.28
regardless of what
affiliation you are.
00:35:55.32\00:35:57.72
I think regardless
of what faith you are,
00:35:57.75\00:35:59.52
you see the Pope as
just, he is an image.
00:35:59.55\00:36:03.49
Like a figure of
hope and his faithfulness
00:36:03.53\00:36:07.76
regardless of
what faith you are.
00:36:07.80\00:36:09.83
So I think that's
why so many people
00:36:09.86\00:36:11.90
of different faiths are so
excited to see the Pope here
00:36:11.93\00:36:14.10
and it's so
important to everyone
00:36:14.14\00:36:15.47
because he's just a
symbol of hope and just change.
00:36:15.50\00:36:19.81
It's very joyous
experience for a lot of us
00:36:19.84\00:36:21.94
and I know
everyone I've met with,
00:36:21.98\00:36:23.98
everyone I've spoken with
has been really fantastic.
00:36:24.01\00:36:26.11
I think today is
more about coming together
00:36:26.15\00:36:28.92
than it is dividing
people down the middle.
00:36:28.95\00:36:31.02
So I'm sure that he will
challenge us in some ways.
00:36:31.05\00:36:35.32
Perhaps, he may say some things
00:36:35.36\00:36:37.49
that we don't want to hear,
00:36:37.53\00:36:39.89
but I hope that we have
open hearts and open ears
00:36:39.93\00:36:44.70
and that we at
least listen and accept
00:36:44.73\00:36:47.50
the challenge
that he gives to us.
00:36:47.54\00:36:49.44
Well, I think that
people that are truly Christian
00:36:49.47\00:36:53.04
are going to
appreciate what he has to say.
00:36:53.07\00:36:56.41
They might not agree
with all of the teachings
00:36:56.44\00:36:58.48
of the Catholic Church,
00:36:58.51\00:36:59.85
but you certainly agree about
00:36:59.88\00:37:01.92
the basic Ten Commandments
and what its moral is.
00:37:01.95\00:37:04.55
I think he will be a
great influence on...
00:37:04.59\00:37:07.59
I just met a
wonderful Protestant preacher
00:37:07.62\00:37:11.49
last evening who is right here,
00:37:11.53\00:37:13.60
you know, and I think that
00:37:13.63\00:37:16.16
we particularly the evangelicals
00:37:16.20\00:37:18.60
I think were right.
00:37:18.63\00:37:19.97
I came from the south
00:37:20.00\00:37:21.34
and, you know, all my friends
00:37:21.37\00:37:22.77
who are Baptist
at church of Christ
00:37:22.80\00:37:24.27
wonderful, wonderful
00:37:24.31\00:37:26.11
and we all believe
in the same morals,
00:37:26.14\00:37:29.51
you know, if they
are truly Christian.
00:37:29.54\00:37:31.91
And it's great that
he is able to speak about
00:37:31.95\00:37:35.35
different issues
like climate change
00:37:35.38\00:37:38.02
and different economic,
00:37:38.05\00:37:40.46
important issues
that are happening.
00:37:40.49\00:37:42.06
So I think that's,
so a very great thing.
00:37:42.09\00:37:44.66
I think Pope
Francis is one who unites
00:37:44.69\00:37:48.76
and I think he respects
the religions of others.
00:37:48.80\00:37:51.63
So I think he comes with the
message of peace, of love of,
00:37:51.67\00:37:55.40
you know, let's walk
together in this world
00:37:55.44\00:37:57.24
and so I think he wants us
to be united in all things.
00:37:57.27\00:38:01.71
You don't have to be catholic
00:38:01.74\00:38:03.35
to listen to his
message because he's just,
00:38:03.38\00:38:06.58
he has the
perfect way to be like
00:38:06.61\00:38:10.12
nice and kind and
generous and just a good person
00:38:10.15\00:38:14.69
and that counts for everyone
even if you are not Catholic.
00:38:14.72\00:38:18.03
Okay.
00:38:18.06\00:38:19.39
I just feel so lucky that to me
00:38:19.43\00:38:21.00
the most important
human being on earth,
00:38:21.03\00:38:22.86
I've really got as close
to God as I can before I die.
00:38:22.90\00:38:26.47
Wow.
00:38:26.50\00:38:28.47
I'll ask God to bless them.
00:38:43.25\00:38:45.95
Thank you.
00:38:49.39\00:38:51.03
Thank you very much
and God bless America.
00:38:51.06\00:38:55.10
What we witnessed here
today on the Capitol lawn
00:39:08.64\00:39:11.48
was nothing short of
prophetically fulfilling.
00:39:11.51\00:39:15.75
The Bible speaks about
00:39:15.78\00:39:17.12
the power of
Rome reigning supreme,
00:39:17.15\00:39:20.02
in actuality
encompassing the entire world
00:39:20.06\00:39:23.06
and the closer
we get to the end,
00:39:23.09\00:39:24.43
the more realistic those
verses are coming into fruition.
00:39:24.46\00:39:27.70
What we saw here today
was what the Bible says
00:39:27.73\00:39:30.03
"All the world wondered."
00:39:30.07\00:39:33.03
And we saw today
from all walks of life,
00:39:33.07\00:39:35.40
regardless of people's opinions,
00:39:35.44\00:39:37.54
regardless of their
denominational beliefs,
00:39:37.57\00:39:40.08
regardless of their financial
status or their ethnicity,
00:39:40.11\00:39:43.45
everyone was
drawn by the magnetism
00:39:43.48\00:39:46.48
that Pope
Francis seems to embrace.
00:39:46.51\00:39:49.45
But is that
something that's coincidental?
00:39:49.48\00:39:51.62
According to Bible prophecy,
00:39:51.65\00:39:53.05
we have seen the
words of John the Apostle
00:39:53.09\00:39:56.36
and Daniel come to
stark fulfillment today
00:39:56.39\00:39:59.73
in the eyes of America,
00:39:59.76\00:40:01.26
on the soil of
the greatest nation,
00:40:01.30\00:40:04.37
a nation that offers
00:40:04.40\00:40:05.97
of republican form of government
00:40:06.00\00:40:07.97
and also Protestantism.
00:40:08.00\00:40:09.84
Two freedoms that
sometimes we take for granted.
00:40:09.87\00:40:12.87
But are those freedoms
going to be long endured
00:40:12.91\00:40:16.38
and appreciated by Americans
00:40:16.41\00:40:18.85
after the visit of
the largest head of state
00:40:18.88\00:40:22.35
and political leader that
our world knows, Pope Francis.
00:40:22.38\00:40:26.19
Stay tuned because
00:40:26.22\00:40:27.56
we believe that the
days ahead are the days
00:40:27.59\00:40:29.32
that are going to
bring greater messages,
00:40:29.36\00:40:31.56
greater understanding of
00:40:31.59\00:40:32.93
what God has
told us centuries ago.
00:40:32.96\00:40:36.33
We are truly living in the day
00:40:36.36\00:40:38.07
where the final
moments will be rapid ones.
00:40:38.10\00:40:41.34
One thing we know for
sure, God's word can be trusted
00:40:41.37\00:40:45.21
for what happened here today
00:40:45.24\00:40:46.81
was a conformation of
the sure word of prophecy.
00:40:46.84\00:40:51.01
This is John Lomacang
for 3ABN from Washington DC.
00:40:51.05\00:40:54.88
What we just saw in a number
of ways is that he is a uniter,
00:41:00.39\00:41:05.59
his words are sacred,
00:41:05.63\00:41:07.73
he is about
bringing us together.
00:41:07.76\00:41:11.20
He is the one who unites.
00:41:11.23\00:41:15.17
It's like being in
the presence of God.
00:41:15.20\00:41:18.11
He is the most
important human being on earth.
00:41:18.14\00:41:20.74
These are
statements that people...-
00:41:20.78\00:41:22.48
That people said.
00:41:22.51\00:41:23.85
You recorded, they actually,
this is what they feel.
00:41:23.88\00:41:26.35
This is how they feel
regardless of denomination,
00:41:26.38\00:41:30.09
regardless of prior belief,
00:41:30.12\00:41:33.02
they believe that he is
the man to unite us all.
00:41:33.05\00:41:36.02
And this is in
fact, stark reality
00:41:36.06\00:41:39.29
totally in
harmony with the Bible
00:41:39.33\00:41:40.80
when this is all the world
will wonder after the beast.
00:41:40.83\00:41:43.43
And so Daniel
said this centuries ago
00:41:43.47\00:41:46.67
that it will trample
down and break in pieces.
00:41:46.70\00:41:48.94
And so, Danny, there
is no world authority
00:41:48.97\00:41:51.61
that can stand up against
him because as you've seen here,
00:41:51.64\00:41:54.71
it could be easily
said as the Bible says
00:41:54.74\00:41:56.91
"who is like him
00:41:56.95\00:41:58.91
when they marvel at
him, who is like him."
00:41:58.95\00:42:00.98
I know that, Yvonne, it
was hard to contain yourself.
00:42:01.02\00:42:02.72
You want to say
something about what you saw?
00:42:02.75\00:42:04.09
Yeah, you know a
couple of things.
00:42:04.12\00:42:05.72
Number one, it's so interesting
how people who aren't Catholic,
00:42:05.75\00:42:10.89
who aren't
associated with that church
00:42:10.93\00:42:12.49
who are Christian
and non-Christians
00:42:12.53\00:42:16.60
have been drawn
into this whole deal
00:42:16.63\00:42:19.53
about him being so different
00:42:19.57\00:42:21.74
and this is
such a different Pope
00:42:21.77\00:42:23.67
and this is such a
different experience
00:42:23.71\00:42:25.74
and people are in awe of him
00:42:25.77\00:42:28.61
and placing him
as a moral authority.
00:42:28.64\00:42:31.31
And the other thing
I want to say is that
00:42:31.35\00:42:33.11
the media has just played him up
00:42:33.15\00:42:37.59
so that it's like
this guy is God on earth.
00:42:37.62\00:42:41.79
People are
crying in his presence
00:42:41.82\00:42:44.33
and acting as though he is God.
00:42:44.36\00:42:47.50
It's very interesting to me
00:42:47.53\00:42:53.07
into this whole deception.
00:42:53.10\00:42:55.37
It's also very
interesting to me,
00:42:55.40\00:42:57.01
I don't mean this
to sound disrespectful
00:42:57.04\00:42:58.87
but I never
heard of the guy before
00:42:58.91\00:43:01.04
and all of the sudden
he's the most powerful man
00:43:01.08\00:43:02.94
and according to these
folk the most wonderful,
00:43:02.98\00:43:05.48
most godly man on earth,
00:43:05.51\00:43:07.82
yet he dies the next
one is gonna come in.
00:43:07.85\00:43:10.59
He was 75-years-old or whatever
00:43:10.62\00:43:12.72
before all of a
sudden he is near God.
00:43:12.75\00:43:15.06
You know, I mean so
it's really a system
00:43:15.09\00:43:17.86
and I think it's his position
00:43:17.89\00:43:19.46
more than the individual people.
00:43:19.49\00:43:21.40
When you say you're Pope,
00:43:21.43\00:43:22.76
I don't care who
they put on there
00:43:22.80\00:43:24.33
that says to them
has such, you know,
00:43:24.37\00:43:27.34
incredible meaning.
00:43:27.37\00:43:28.70
But, John, we
have to, you got...
00:43:28.74\00:43:30.07
we only got ten,
nine minutes or so.
00:43:30.11\00:43:31.71
You got to bring us around
00:43:31.74\00:43:33.64
where should we
be in all of this?
00:43:33.68\00:43:35.64
Well, it comes
back down to two things.
00:43:35.68\00:43:38.85
One, if you do something
that gets the devil upset,
00:43:38.88\00:43:42.35
you're doing something right.
00:43:42.38\00:43:43.72
Okay.
00:43:43.75\00:43:45.09
If you do something he supports,
00:43:45.12\00:43:46.45
you are doing something wrong.
00:43:46.49\00:43:47.89
I go back to the text again
because Revelation Chapter 12
00:43:47.92\00:43:51.39
when it shows that
00:43:51.43\00:43:54.36
where it shows that
Satan is pursuing those
00:43:54.40\00:43:56.87
who are loyal to God,
00:43:56.90\00:43:58.83
he identifies those as they keep
00:43:58.87\00:44:00.87
the Commandments of God
00:44:00.90\00:44:02.60
and have the
testimony of Jesus Christ.
00:44:02.64\00:44:04.84
And then Revelation Chapter 14,
00:44:04.87\00:44:06.81
let's go to
Revelation 14 very quickly
00:44:06.84\00:44:09.84
and look at how the Bible,
00:44:09.88\00:44:11.81
and the reason I'm using
the Bible more is because
00:44:11.85\00:44:14.45
I want people to understand
00:44:14.48\00:44:16.08
that what is taking place
in our world is not something
00:44:16.12\00:44:18.35
that has caught us by surprise.
00:44:18.39\00:44:20.29
We've known this as a
church for a long time,
00:44:20.32\00:44:22.16
for more than 170 years
00:44:22.19\00:44:23.53
to be
particular, to be specific.
00:44:23.56\00:44:26.06
But then again you see
00:44:26.09\00:44:28.10
that Revelation 13 talks about
00:44:28.13\00:44:29.86
the unity of the
second beast of Revelation 13
00:44:29.90\00:44:33.60
which is United
States, this lamb like power.
00:44:33.64\00:44:36.30
And, Pastor C.A.,
the theologian here
00:44:36.34\00:44:39.11
when the Bible
uses the word lamb,
00:44:39.14\00:44:42.14
who are they talking about?
00:44:42.18\00:44:43.51
Talking about
the Lord. The Lord.
00:44:43.55\00:44:45.11
So when the Bible speaks about
00:44:45.15\00:44:46.48
another beast
coming up out of the earth,
00:44:46.51\00:44:48.32
two horns like a lamb
that means the Christian power.
00:44:48.35\00:44:53.05
So this nation was
born on Christian principles
00:44:53.09\00:44:55.92
but the principle
that keeps the Vatican
00:44:55.96\00:44:58.09
from total domination of America
00:44:58.13\00:45:00.76
is they offer religious freedom.
00:45:00.80\00:45:04.97
And...
00:45:05.00\00:45:06.33
Who offers religious freedom?
00:45:06.37\00:45:07.70
America, our government.
00:45:07.74\00:45:09.07
Freedom of worship is
something we have now.
00:45:09.10\00:45:11.04
We know a lot of our
freedom is being threatened.
00:45:11.07\00:45:13.38
You can't say what you want
to say any longer in America.
00:45:13.41\00:45:16.58
You know, all these
freedoms could be taken away.
00:45:16.61\00:45:19.01
You know, we
have the Patriot Act
00:45:19.05\00:45:20.38
and I don't want
to go down that road.
00:45:20.42\00:45:21.82
But America is a place now
00:45:21.85\00:45:23.92
where the litmus test
for any political office is,
00:45:23.95\00:45:28.46
what is your religion?
00:45:28.49\00:45:29.92
That's a big thing.
00:45:29.96\00:45:31.29
That's been happening
00:45:31.33\00:45:32.66
ever since the introduction
of the moral majority,
00:45:32.69\00:45:35.10
the religious right.
00:45:35.13\00:45:37.27
This whole idea
that what you believe
00:45:37.30\00:45:40.04
your Christian beliefs
00:45:40.07\00:45:41.74
has everything to
do with your office,
00:45:41.77\00:45:43.54
has become a
significant role in America.
00:45:43.57\00:45:46.27
And so who are we now?
00:45:46.31\00:45:47.68
We are the people
saying to the world,
00:45:47.71\00:45:49.78
"If you want to avoid
being drawn in by the Vatican,
00:45:49.81\00:45:53.08
you simply have to
stand on God's word."
00:45:53.11\00:45:55.12
Amen. Amen.
00:45:55.15\00:45:56.48
So what do you do?
00:45:56.52\00:45:57.85
Revelation Chapter 14, it
gives you another picture.
00:45:57.89\00:46:00.82
It gives you another picture.
00:46:00.86\00:46:02.19
Revelation Chapter 14
00:46:02.22\00:46:03.56
and I'm gonna show
you again in verse 12.
00:46:03.59\00:46:07.00
speaking about in the midst of
the final moments of the earth,
00:46:08.36\00:46:13.07
the Bible says again,
00:46:13.10\00:46:14.44
"Here is the
patience of the saints,
00:46:14.47\00:46:17.44
here are those who
keep the Commandments of God
00:46:17.47\00:46:20.31
and the faith of Jesus."
00:46:20.34\00:46:22.71
Now what I want to add to that
00:46:22.74\00:46:24.08
is not only is the
devil upset with those
00:46:24.11\00:46:26.05
who keep the Commandments of God
00:46:26.08\00:46:27.42
but what in
particular is he upset about?
00:46:27.45\00:46:29.35
Yeah.
00:46:29.38\00:46:31.19
Because most
Christians won't say
00:46:31.22\00:46:33.92
"I believe it's right to,
00:46:33.96\00:46:35.29
I believe that we
could commit adultery
00:46:35.32\00:46:36.66
or steal or lie or kill
and take God's name in vain."
00:46:36.69\00:46:39.79
But what in particular, Danny?
00:46:39.83\00:46:41.16
Fourth commandment.
The fourth commandment.
00:46:41.20\00:46:42.90
Now why the fourth commandment?
00:46:42.93\00:46:44.27
Why does he want men to forget?
Because there's God seal in it.
00:46:44.30\00:46:46.00
It says, who
created, it says He is the...
00:46:46.03\00:46:48.70
the only commandment says
00:46:48.74\00:46:50.07
He is the Creator
of heaven and earth.
00:46:50.11\00:46:51.87
So, you know, they
say, President Obama,
00:46:51.91\00:46:54.51
president of the territory,
United States of America,
00:46:54.54\00:46:57.78
the seal of God.
00:46:57.81\00:46:59.15
So if Satan can
take that seal out
00:46:59.18\00:47:01.45
and put his own,
00:47:01.48\00:47:03.05
then people in spite of
themselves are worshiping him.
00:47:03.08\00:47:08.39
So people say, what's
important about a day?
00:47:08.42\00:47:10.63
It's not really about the day,
00:47:10.66\00:47:12.09
it's about coming
down to whom I gonna serve.
00:47:12.13\00:47:14.43
We don't have time to
go into all that today.
00:47:14.46\00:47:16.56
God has people in all churches
we want you to know that.
00:47:16.60\00:47:19.33
We're not saved by if you're
an Adventist or Pentecostal
00:47:19.37\00:47:22.24
or whomever or lost
00:47:22.27\00:47:23.61
because you are
Catholic or whatever.
00:47:23.64\00:47:25.37
It's about the heart
00:47:25.41\00:47:26.74
but that's why 3ABN is
to try to give a message
00:47:26.78\00:47:30.08
that's a final warning message
to the lost and dying world,
00:47:30.11\00:47:33.55
and then let people
decide for themselves.
00:47:33.58\00:47:36.05
So thank you for
what you... Yeah.
00:47:36.08\00:47:37.65
I want to add this
little quick here, John.
00:47:37.69\00:47:39.02
Because if you pull
00:47:39.05\00:47:40.76
the fourth commandment
out of the Ten Commandments,
00:47:40.79\00:47:43.16
then you don't know who
wrote the Ten Commandments
00:47:43.19\00:47:45.39
because the
signature is in number four.
00:47:45.43\00:47:47.76
Right.
00:47:47.80\00:47:49.13
If you pull four you
got, you have nine laws,
00:47:49.16\00:47:50.60
you have no clue
where they came from
00:47:50.63\00:47:52.10
or who they came from
00:47:52.13\00:47:53.47
because He signs
His name in number four.
00:47:53.50\00:47:54.97
So it makes it very important
00:47:55.00\00:47:56.34
because it gives his
authorship of all ten.
00:47:56.37\00:48:00.58
And coming back
to the point I made
00:48:00.61\00:48:02.74
earlier in the program,
00:48:02.78\00:48:04.11
the great controversy is
not between Christ and Rome,
00:48:04.15\00:48:08.52
it's between Christ and Satan.
00:48:08.55\00:48:10.19
But Satan has
established on earth
00:48:10.22\00:48:13.22
a power that will accomplish
00:48:13.25\00:48:15.06
what he initially
always said he would do.
00:48:15.09\00:48:17.53
Isaiah Chapter 14,
00:48:17.56\00:48:18.89
notice the claims
that the devil has made.
00:48:18.93\00:48:20.96
He's made some
claims in the face of God
00:48:21.00\00:48:23.40
he said this is
what I'm going to do
00:48:23.43\00:48:25.57
and he has made that
attempt through the movements
00:48:25.60\00:48:28.50
that are taking
place through Rome.
00:48:28.54\00:48:30.27
He says in Isaiah 14:13,
00:48:30.31\00:48:34.81
"For you have
said in your heart..."
00:48:34.84\00:48:38.68
Break it down, pastor.
Oh, you are not there yet.
00:48:38.71\00:48:40.18
Are you there, Yvonne? Yes.
00:48:40.22\00:48:41.55
Read the first one.
00:48:41.58\00:48:42.92
"'I will ascend into
heaven." That's right.
00:48:42.95\00:48:44.49
"I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God."
00:48:44.52\00:48:47.32
That's right.
00:48:47.36\00:48:48.69
"I will also sit on the
mount of the congregation
00:48:48.72\00:48:51.33
on the farthest
sides of the north.
00:48:51.36\00:48:53.76
I will ascend above
the heights of the clouds,
00:48:53.80\00:48:56.60
I will be like the Most High."
00:48:56.63\00:48:58.97
Okay.
00:48:59.00\00:49:00.34
So these are the
claims that Satan has made
00:49:00.37\00:49:01.80
and through the
religion of Rome,
00:49:01.84\00:49:04.97
through Roman Catholicism,
00:49:05.01\00:49:07.11
Satan has sought to accomplish
00:49:07.14\00:49:09.41
the very design
through religion.
00:49:09.44\00:49:11.78
And, Danny, if I were
to, if I were to attack God
00:49:11.81\00:49:14.85
to try to accomplish deception,
00:49:14.88\00:49:16.85
I would use the very thing
00:49:16.89\00:49:18.22
that God has
established for man salvation,
00:49:18.25\00:49:20.42
to turn it around
for man's destruction.
00:49:20.46\00:49:22.39
God has established the
church for man's salvation
00:49:22.42\00:49:24.99
and Satan says, the church.
00:49:25.03\00:49:27.86
Didn't think about that one.
00:49:27.90\00:49:29.33
Let me go ahead
00:49:29.36\00:49:30.70
and divert the
church from its mission
00:49:30.73\00:49:32.90
by polluting the
church, the woman,
00:49:32.93\00:49:35.40
as he did in the Garden of Eden.
00:49:35.44\00:49:37.97
So here we are the
commandment keepers of God
00:49:38.01\00:49:40.38
and what's the big
deal about the Sabbath?
00:49:40.41\00:49:42.54
I know sometimes you
watch 3ABN or listen to radio,
00:49:42.58\00:49:44.95
there was a
lady that we have now
00:49:44.98\00:49:46.31
that's out of
church, she say for 30 years
00:49:46.35\00:49:48.18
every time we talk about
the Sabbath on the radio,
00:49:48.22\00:49:50.15
she would change the channel.
00:49:50.19\00:49:52.52
But one day when she was
putting the placard on her lawn
00:49:52.55\00:49:54.72
that had the Ten Commandments on
00:49:54.76\00:49:56.09
she said to her husband, "Look
we don't keep the Sabbath."
00:49:56.12\00:49:58.53
Why is the Sabbath so
significantly a part of this?
00:49:58.56\00:50:01.20
When God
established the Sabbath He said,
00:50:01.23\00:50:04.60
"The seventh day is the
Sabbath of the Lord thy God."
00:50:04.63\00:50:08.20
So it's not about the day,
it's about who is your God.
00:50:08.24\00:50:11.77
But now Satan came
along, Daniel 7:25,
00:50:11.81\00:50:15.01
he changed the times
from the Sabbath to Sunday,
00:50:15.04\00:50:18.05
changed the fourth commandment,
00:50:18.08\00:50:20.38
broke it down,
deleted most of it...
00:50:20.42\00:50:23.89
Through the
Roman Catholic Church.
00:50:23.92\00:50:25.25
Through the
Roman Catholic Church.
00:50:25.29\00:50:26.65
That's why Sunday worship.
00:50:26.69\00:50:28.02
That's why Sunday
worship has come in.
00:50:28.06\00:50:29.39
The time we're
quickly getting there
00:50:29.42\00:50:30.76
but because that's why people
go to the church on Sundays
00:50:30.79\00:50:33.56
and yet those who
claim to be Protestants,
00:50:33.60\00:50:36.06
the Catholic
Church says themselves
00:50:36.10\00:50:37.83
are following after us
in spite of themselves.
00:50:37.87\00:50:40.87
The Cardinal says,
00:50:40.90\00:50:42.24
"When they worship on Sunday
00:50:42.27\00:50:43.61
for which there is
no biblical reference."
00:50:43.64\00:50:46.34
To me that's, we just kind of,
00:50:46.37\00:50:48.44
you know, getting
started here today
00:50:48.48\00:50:50.51
but we want you to
keep watching 3ABN.
00:50:50.55\00:50:52.55
You know, I think this
is a good place, Danny,
00:50:52.58\00:50:53.98
that you may want to
plug "The Antichrist Agenda,"
00:50:54.02\00:50:56.18
that book really has
laid such a dynamic foundation
00:50:56.22\00:50:59.49
for helping people
understand the bigger picture
00:50:59.52\00:51:01.29
that's going on here.
00:51:01.32\00:51:02.66
It's not about
the day you worship
00:51:02.69\00:51:04.89
as much as it is
the God you worship.
00:51:04.93\00:51:07.56
When you choose the God,
00:51:07.60\00:51:09.03
the Creator of heaven and earth,
00:51:09.06\00:51:10.63
He already has the day. Yeah.
00:51:10.67\00:51:12.43
He said, "The Sabbath
is a sign" Ezekiel 12...
00:51:12.47\00:51:15.10
Chapter 20:12 and 20,
00:51:15.14\00:51:16.60
"It's a sign between Me and you,
00:51:16.64\00:51:18.44
that you will
know that I am the Lord
00:51:18.47\00:51:19.81
that sanctifies you."
00:51:19.84\00:51:21.18
So if the God of creation
and redemption is your God,
00:51:21.21\00:51:24.15
then don't accept
the substitute of Rome
00:51:24.18\00:51:26.35
which in fact is
the substitute of Satan.
00:51:26.38\00:51:29.02
And folk call our 800
number during the week,
00:51:29.05\00:51:32.62
we will be happy to give you
00:51:32.65\00:51:34.89
either "Antichrist Agenda"
00:51:34.92\00:51:36.26
why don't I just say "Ten
Commandments Twice Removed."
00:51:36.29\00:51:38.06
That's enough. Yes.
00:51:38.09\00:51:39.43
You can remember that "Ten
Commandments Twice Removed"
00:51:39.46\00:51:41.13
and we will be happy
to send one to you free
00:51:41.16\00:51:43.16
that goes into much more detail
than what you got here today.
00:51:43.20\00:51:46.70
But the times in
which we are living,
00:51:46.74\00:51:48.20
Pope comes to America.
00:51:48.24\00:51:49.90
All the world is wondering
because Baptist, Methodist
00:51:49.94\00:51:53.11
everybody else
are out there saying,
00:51:53.14\00:51:55.21
"Man, this man is holy."
00:51:55.24\00:51:56.58
And it's exactly
what's been prophesized.
00:51:56.61\00:51:58.61
So we need to say
what is our position?
00:51:58.65\00:52:00.98
Stick to the law of God, right.
00:52:01.02\00:52:02.85
Serve God and Him
only. That's right.
00:52:02.88\00:52:04.65
If you follow God's
words, you will never go wrong.
00:52:04.69\00:52:07.72
This is the light,
don't settle for the darkness.
00:52:07.76\00:52:10.76
Well, said, Pastor John.
00:52:10.79\00:52:12.13
And the message
of the third angel
00:52:12.16\00:52:13.63
like or not is the
message of separation.
00:52:13.66\00:52:15.66
That's right.
00:52:15.70\00:52:17.03
It's a message of demarcation
that if you are going to be,
00:52:17.07\00:52:19.97
then be where
you are going to be.
00:52:20.00\00:52:21.34
I'm speaking kind
of eclectically here
00:52:21.37\00:52:23.20
but if you are Protestant
and you got to be Protestant.
00:52:23.24\00:52:25.81
You can't surrender that.
00:52:25.84\00:52:27.18
The reason the Protestant
Church came into existence
00:52:27.21\00:52:29.21
is because of
practices that it saw
00:52:29.24\00:52:31.61
that were not of God.
00:52:31.65\00:52:33.72
So now do we just surrender that
00:52:33.75\00:52:35.38
and fold hands
kind of sing Kumbaya
00:52:35.42\00:52:37.49
or do we stand for
what Christ has meant.
00:52:37.52\00:52:38.85
Right, you
can't allow enthusiasm
00:52:38.89\00:52:40.76
in an exciting moment
to cause you to give away
00:52:40.79\00:52:43.22
the very thing that is
the basis of your salvation.
00:52:43.26\00:52:44.89
Precisely.
00:52:44.93\00:52:46.26
That's what's
happening in America.
00:52:46.29\00:52:47.63
It took me a long
time to figure out
00:52:47.66\00:52:49.00
a lot of people
who are Protestants
00:52:49.03\00:52:50.57
whether it' Baptist,
Methodist, Pentecostal
00:52:50.60\00:52:52.57
don't know what
Protestant means.
00:52:52.60\00:52:54.60
Protest if you
break the word down.
00:52:54.64\00:52:56.44
Who do were they protesting?
00:52:56.47\00:52:58.11
Catholicism. Exactly.
00:52:58.14\00:52:59.51
And so either you are
Catholic or you are Protestant
00:52:59.54\00:53:01.41
if you're Protestant, you know,
00:53:01.44\00:53:02.98
it's a Bible and the Bible only,
00:53:03.01\00:53:04.58
Catholic Church admittedly says,
00:53:04.61\00:53:05.98
we are tradition, you know.
00:53:06.01\00:53:07.58
They make their own laws,
00:53:07.62\00:53:08.95
we can rule and
change the times of...
00:53:08.98\00:53:11.25
and God's law the
fourth commandment,
00:53:11.29\00:53:12.95
but Protestants
were supposed to be
00:53:12.99\00:53:15.82
the Bible and the
Bible only, right.
00:53:15.86\00:53:17.19
Yes. Right.
00:53:17.23\00:53:18.56
That's why we do these programs,
00:53:18.59\00:53:19.93
we want you to join us in that,
00:53:19.96\00:53:21.30
not that we anti
anybody except we are pro-God
00:53:21.33\00:53:24.63
and we are pro-the law of God.
00:53:24.67\00:53:26.10
I like that. Well, said.
00:53:26.13\00:53:27.47
The Council of Trent
came out and said that
00:53:27.50\00:53:28.94
"tradition trumps the Bible."
00:53:28.97\00:53:31.57
Well, I can't
cosign that, I cannot
00:53:31.61\00:53:33.64
because I'm sola scriptura
and I cannot surrender that.
00:53:33.68\00:53:37.65
And as long as that is
your basis for existence,
00:53:37.68\00:53:40.35
then you got to
stick with the Word of God
00:53:40.38\00:53:42.22
and the Word of God only.
00:53:42.25\00:53:43.59
We're gonna go
to our newsbreak now
00:53:43.62\00:53:45.05
and we will be back
with the closing thought
00:53:45.09\00:53:46.79
from our pastor just after this.
00:53:46.82\00:53:48.86
