I want to spend my life
00:00:01.90\00:00:07.80
Mending broken people
00:00:07.84\00:00:12.91
I want to spend my life
00:00:12.94\00:00:19.01
Removing pain
00:00:19.05\00:00:24.09
Lord, let my words
00:00:24.12\00:00:30.23
Heal a heart that hurts
00:00:30.26\00:00:34.93
I want to spend my life
00:00:34.96\00:00:40.64
Mending broken people
00:00:40.67\00:00:46.14
I want to spend my life
00:00:46.17\00:00:51.65
Mending broken people
00:00:51.68\00:00:55.38
Hello and welcome.
Happy Sabbath, everybody.
00:01:08.63\00:01:10.87
Welcome to 3ABN.
00:01:10.90\00:01:12.23
We're talking
about family worship
00:01:12.27\00:01:14.27
and so we're always
thrilled when we come together
00:01:14.30\00:01:16.34
and be able to study God's Word,
00:01:16.37\00:01:17.71
and we pray you're just as
happy as we are and excited.
00:01:17.74\00:01:20.78
We have been, I'll tell you,
00:01:20.81\00:01:22.34
we've been
studying this Word of God
00:01:22.38\00:01:23.71
for a long, long time
00:01:23.75\00:01:25.18
and this was gonna
be, what, the fifth part?
00:01:25.21\00:01:27.72
Yes. Yeah.
00:01:27.75\00:01:29.08
We're gonna be talking about
the restitution of all things.
00:01:29.12\00:01:32.82
And we realize
as we look at this
00:01:32.85\00:01:34.39
that it's the
relationship of the sanctuary.
00:01:34.42\00:01:37.03
We're looking at the sanctuary,
we're looking over the past,
00:01:37.06\00:01:38.93
what, 500 years or so
00:01:38.96\00:01:40.80
that all these beautiful
truths has been restored
00:01:40.83\00:01:42.96
and we've gathered information
00:01:43.00\00:01:44.50
if you're jotting
things down at home,
00:01:44.53\00:01:45.87
Act Chapter 3
and Daniel Chapter 8,
00:01:45.90\00:01:48.27
where the truth
was thrown down right,
00:01:48.30\00:01:49.74
and covered up and
God said in the last days,
00:01:49.77\00:01:51.41
these beautiful truths
are going to be restored.
00:01:51.44\00:01:54.18
And so we're looking
forward to getting into
00:01:54.21\00:01:56.14
I believe our last stop here.
00:01:56.18\00:01:58.65
And we talked about beforehand,
we could go for what.
00:01:58.68\00:02:01.15
Oh, my goodness. Oh, man.
00:02:01.18\00:02:02.98
On and on and on
00:02:03.02\00:02:04.35
because when you
talk about the sanctuary,
00:02:04.39\00:02:05.72
such a big,
wonderful, beautiful, subject.
00:02:05.75\00:02:07.59
We've already looked
at, in case some of you
00:02:07.62\00:02:09.22
may have joined for
the very first time.
00:02:09.26\00:02:10.59
We looked at the restitution
at the altar of sacrifice.
00:02:10.63\00:02:13.73
We looked at the laver
00:02:13.76\00:02:15.10
and we go into
table of showbread.
00:02:15.13\00:02:18.03
We go into the altar of
incense and the candlestick.
00:02:18.07\00:02:21.30
And then, so now
the beautiful thing
00:02:21.34\00:02:23.07
we're going into by
faith the Most Holy Place
00:02:23.10\00:02:27.44
and what is located there.
00:02:27.48\00:02:29.14
And that's what
we're gonna be looking at,
00:02:29.18\00:02:30.58
studying and I think,
00:02:30.61\00:02:31.95
today we'll be going
probably as we study,
00:02:31.98\00:02:34.18
that we're gonna be going
into a lot of different aspects
00:02:34.22\00:02:37.55
because it can come in
so many different angles
00:02:37.59\00:02:40.19
and so we're
praying that the Holy Spirit
00:02:40.22\00:02:42.46
will illuminate
these beautiful truths
00:02:42.49\00:02:43.93
in each of your
minds here on the panel,
00:02:43.96\00:02:46.36
which we're very
glad that we have here
00:02:46.39\00:02:47.90
before we have our prayer.
00:02:47.93\00:02:49.26
We probably should
introduce them, don't you think?
00:02:49.30\00:02:51.17
Brother Don Owen,
I'm glad you're here.
00:02:51.20\00:02:53.03
Thank you for having me.
00:02:53.07\00:02:54.40
You're on the end
seat, I won't reply.
00:02:54.44\00:02:55.77
Oh, now is that too
much pressure to be on that.
00:02:55.80\00:02:57.74
I'm nervous.
00:02:57.77\00:02:59.11
No, we're glad you are,
that's gonna hold us together.
00:02:59.14\00:03:00.91
Brother JD Quinn,
always glad to have you.
00:03:00.94\00:03:02.94
Well, it's always my
pleasure. It's always fun.
00:03:02.98\00:03:04.65
Loves to study
the Word, isn't it?
00:03:04.68\00:03:06.68
Yeah somebody
said, we had prayer,
00:03:06.72\00:03:08.48
before we start we always do
00:03:08.52\00:03:09.85
and then have a
few moments here.
00:03:09.88\00:03:11.49
They said have fun,
00:03:11.52\00:03:13.02
and I thought you
know what, that's true.
00:03:13.05\00:03:14.99
Because really it is
fun and we should have fun.
00:03:15.02\00:03:17.46
There shouldn't be
any strain and stress.
00:03:17.49\00:03:19.96
The study might be
putting it all together
00:03:20.00\00:03:21.60
when it comes time to
sit around God's table.
00:03:21.63\00:03:24.40
And Holy Spirit is
working, it's gonna be fun.
00:03:24.43\00:03:27.44
And there's always a negator too
00:03:27.47\00:03:28.94
that comes out that
catches the saints by surprise.
00:03:28.97\00:03:32.37
Well, absolutely.
00:03:32.41\00:03:33.74
I'm looking for a
lot of nuggets to come.
00:03:33.78\00:03:35.11
Lot of nuggets. That's right.
00:03:35.14\00:03:36.91
And I have my lovely
wife Chris, next to me.
00:03:36.95\00:03:39.31
Thank you for being
here today. Thank you.
00:03:39.35\00:03:40.92
Oh, you're all geared
up for it, are you really?
00:03:40.95\00:03:42.52
Oh, I don't know,
but hopefully by the end.
00:03:42.55\00:03:44.32
Well, we prayed about it
and asked the Holy Spirit
00:03:44.35\00:03:46.12
so I've got, I just know
00:03:46.15\00:03:47.49
it's gonna be here
by faith, believe it.
00:03:47.52\00:03:49.42
And Brother Ryan
Day, always a privilege.
00:03:49.46\00:03:52.09
I'm here, man, and
I'm excited to be here.
00:03:52.13\00:03:54.53
I love the Word of God.
00:03:54.56\00:03:56.00
Isn't that wonderful?
00:03:56.03\00:03:57.37
He says, "Taste and
see if He is not good."
00:03:57.40\00:03:58.77
All right. Of course.
00:03:58.80\00:04:00.24
Absolutely. And we have Summer.
00:04:00.27\00:04:02.30
And we have Summer on the piano.
00:04:02.34\00:04:05.01
Well, she's a minute woman
00:04:05.04\00:04:06.51
is that what we
call her last minute,
00:04:06.54\00:04:08.31
minute man, minute woman.
00:04:08.34\00:04:09.68
We're so very
grateful and thankful
00:04:09.71\00:04:11.05
that she's
willing to do that for us.
00:04:11.08\00:04:12.98
And again, we'll be
in the Most Holy Place
00:04:13.01\00:04:14.58
and we're gonna
be looking really
00:04:14.62\00:04:16.05
at the Ark of the Covenant.
00:04:16.08\00:04:18.49
Talking in the 1800's as it were
00:04:18.52\00:04:20.76
and people say
well, where does it go?
00:04:20.79\00:04:22.79
I believe it goes all the
way down this beautiful truth
00:04:22.82\00:04:25.59
until Jesus shall come
00:04:25.63\00:04:27.06
because the
Sabbath truth comes out
00:04:27.10\00:04:28.56
and that's gonna be contested
all the way till Jesus comes.
00:04:28.60\00:04:31.43
So, you know,
what a good study it is
00:04:31.47\00:04:33.27
but before that we're
gonna sing a song first
00:04:33.30\00:04:36.54
and then we're
going to have prayer.
00:04:36.57\00:04:38.37
Brother Ryan Day,
00:04:38.41\00:04:39.74
we always turn that over to you.
00:04:39.77\00:04:41.11
Absolutely, so
we're gonna be singing
00:04:41.14\00:04:43.51
from page 590 in the SDA Hymnal.
00:04:43.55\00:04:46.48
A good old fashioned
hymn, Trust and Obey.
00:04:46.51\00:04:48.88
So, Summer, take it away.
00:04:48.92\00:04:50.25
When we walk with the Lord
00:04:54.39\00:04:57.86
In the light of His Word
00:04:57.89\00:05:01.66
What a glory He
sheds on our way!
00:05:01.70\00:05:07.94
While we do His good will
00:05:07.97\00:05:11.64
He abides with us still
00:05:11.67\00:05:15.31
And with all who
will trust and obey
00:05:15.34\00:05:21.58
Trust and obey,
00:05:21.62\00:05:24.62
For there's no other way
00:05:24.65\00:05:28.46
To be happy in Jesus
00:05:28.49\00:05:33.03
But to trust and obey
00:05:33.06\00:05:37.70
Not a shadow can rise,
00:05:37.73\00:05:41.44
Not a cloud in the skies
00:05:41.47\00:05:45.27
But His smile
quickly drives it away
00:05:45.31\00:05:51.48
Not a doubt or a fear
00:05:51.51\00:05:55.42
Not a sigh nor a tear
00:05:55.45\00:05:59.19
Can abide while
we trust and obey
00:05:59.22\00:06:05.66
Trust and obey,
00:06:05.69\00:06:08.83
For there's no other way
00:06:08.86\00:06:12.67
To be happy in Jesus
00:06:12.70\00:06:17.37
But to trust and obey
00:06:17.41\00:06:22.64
Praise the Lord. Hallelujah.
00:06:22.68\00:06:24.78
What a beautiful song?
00:06:24.81\00:06:26.15
What a testimony? Amen.
00:06:26.18\00:06:28.18
Trust and obey, for
there's no other way,
00:06:28.22\00:06:30.75
and we wanna be take
this to the Lord right now.
00:06:30.79\00:06:33.72
And, Brother JD, how about you,
would you pray for us please?
00:06:33.76\00:06:35.26
Amen. Most certainly.
00:06:35.29\00:06:36.86
Father, as we come
together on this Sabbath day,
00:06:36.89\00:06:39.09
we just wanna thank You Lord
00:06:39.13\00:06:40.60
so much for being in our hearts
00:06:40.63\00:06:41.96
and our minds and, Father,
we dedicate this time to You.
00:06:42.00\00:06:45.33
Father, we invite
the Holy Spirit in.
00:06:45.37\00:06:47.40
Father, just to
find those nuggets
00:06:47.44\00:06:49.34
that only You can give us, Lord,
00:06:49.37\00:06:51.41
so that we can share
among us and share with others.
00:06:51.44\00:06:54.84
So, Father, just empty us of us,
00:06:54.88\00:06:56.71
fill us with You.
00:06:56.75\00:06:58.08
We love You and
thank You in Jesus' name.
00:06:58.11\00:07:00.25
Amen. Amen.
00:07:00.28\00:07:01.62
Praise the Lord.
00:07:01.65\00:07:02.98
And we were praying
and hoping and believing
00:07:03.02\00:07:04.69
you're playing along with us.
00:07:04.72\00:07:06.05
When we pray
here, you pray with us.
00:07:06.09\00:07:07.42
We hear that so often.
00:07:07.46\00:07:08.79
When you guys pray,
we pray. That's right.
00:07:08.82\00:07:10.26
And we're very
grateful and thankful for that,
00:07:10.29\00:07:12.06
that you do.
00:07:12.09\00:07:13.43
We are in question number
six and again we talked about,
00:07:13.46\00:07:16.36
it's very open
and it's very broad
00:07:16.40\00:07:18.53
and when you talk
about the sanctuary,
00:07:18.57\00:07:20.50
it seems as though.
00:07:20.54\00:07:21.87
I think we'll be discussing it
00:07:21.90\00:07:23.24
through the eternal age
as far as I'm concerned.
00:07:23.27\00:07:25.31
That we're not gonna
plan on just getting down
00:07:25.34\00:07:27.48
to every little
thing, know everything.
00:07:27.51\00:07:29.34
Sanctuary is so big and
so vast and so wonderful,
00:07:29.38\00:07:31.88
'cause it's God's.
00:07:31.91\00:07:33.25
Talking about God,
talking about plan of salvation.
00:07:33.28\00:07:35.42
So we're gonna look at
question number six, read that.
00:07:35.45\00:07:37.62
And then I think
that's just a springboard.
00:07:37.65\00:07:39.49
Let's just use
that as a springboard
00:07:39.52\00:07:41.22
that we can go on a lot of
different directions on this
00:07:41.26\00:07:44.23
because we realize
that we look at the 1800s,
00:07:44.26\00:07:46.19
we look at 1844, we
look at what's going on here,
00:07:46.23\00:07:48.86
the Advent
Movement then who was all
00:07:48.90\00:07:50.70
and different involved with it
00:07:50.73\00:07:52.07
and many will
bring that out, I'm sure.
00:07:52.10\00:07:53.77
I believe it's going
to reveal some things
00:07:53.80\00:07:56.30
that might be a
shock maybe to some,
00:07:56.34\00:07:58.71
but it's gonna be a
joy and a hallelujah
00:07:58.74\00:08:00.51
and an amen to some
of the rest of us right,
00:08:00.54\00:08:02.21
who read these things.
00:08:02.24\00:08:04.68
Question six says,
00:08:04.71\00:08:06.05
"What are we doing to
proclaim the judgment hour
00:08:06.08\00:08:08.58
and all of these precious truths
00:08:08.62\00:08:11.12
that are contained therein?"
00:08:11.15\00:08:13.02
Again that's kind
of an open question.
00:08:13.05\00:08:14.86
Who would like to maybe
begin right there and if we do,
00:08:14.89\00:08:18.03
we may want to set that aside
00:08:18.06\00:08:19.53
and go back to
where maybe we believe
00:08:19.56\00:08:22.06
the beginning of this thing
00:08:22.10\00:08:23.43
really start in as far as the...
00:08:23.47\00:08:24.80
We're now by
faith entering where?
00:08:24.83\00:08:26.67
Yeah, in Most Holy
Place. The Most Holy Place.
00:08:26.70\00:08:29.44
And my question maybe,
Brother Ryan, as you...
00:08:29.47\00:08:33.74
When was that
curtain as it were torn down?
00:08:33.78\00:08:36.21
Right, absolutely,
I love the question
00:08:36.24\00:08:38.01
that we asked earlier
00:08:38.05\00:08:39.38
which is what are we doing
to proclaim the judgment hour
00:08:39.41\00:08:42.02
and all of these precious truths
00:08:42.05\00:08:44.02
that are contained therein.
00:08:44.05\00:08:45.59
And when I think
of judgment hour,
00:08:45.62\00:08:47.29
I always start
with some present truth
00:08:47.32\00:08:50.59
that of course is
linked to some truth
00:08:50.63\00:08:52.79
that the Lord has
given many, many years ago
00:08:52.83\00:08:55.20
to set us up for this study.
00:08:55.23\00:08:56.56
So I wanna start actually
in Revelation Chapter 14
00:08:56.60\00:08:58.93
with the first angel's message,
00:08:58.97\00:09:00.30
because it clearly gives us
some insight as to what it is
00:09:00.34\00:09:03.77
that we're talking
about this morning.
00:09:03.81\00:09:05.44
And so, or this evening.
00:09:05.47\00:09:06.94
And so Revelation 14:6,
00:09:06.98\00:09:09.78
obviously John has
envisioned, he says,
00:09:09.81\00:09:11.88
"And I saw another angel
fly in the midst of heaven,
00:09:11.91\00:09:13.92
having the everlasting
gospel to preach to those
00:09:13.95\00:09:16.58
who dwell on the
earth, and to every nation,
00:09:16.62\00:09:18.22
tribe, tongue, and people."
00:09:18.25\00:09:19.59
Just wanna pause there
and just make a quick mention
00:09:19.62\00:09:22.16
that you know a lot
of times, people think,
00:09:22.19\00:09:23.56
wait a second,
judgment, well, that's bad news.
00:09:23.59\00:09:25.86
Judgment is bad news.
00:09:25.89\00:09:27.40
Judgment is not
really good news,
00:09:27.43\00:09:29.10
so it can't be gospel, right?
00:09:29.13\00:09:31.20
Well, notice what verse 6 says,
00:09:31.23\00:09:32.80
that these angels
are delivering what?
00:09:32.83\00:09:34.90
The everlasting gospel.
00:09:34.94\00:09:36.34
And so now notice verse
7, saying with a loud voice,
00:09:36.37\00:09:39.27
here comes the
first angel's message,
00:09:39.31\00:09:41.48
"Fear God and give glory to Him,
00:09:41.51\00:09:42.98
for the hour of His judgment,"
00:09:43.01\00:09:44.68
and I'm reading
New King James here
00:09:44.71\00:09:46.05
which says "has come."
00:09:46.08\00:09:47.42
King James is gonna say is come.
00:09:47.45\00:09:48.85
Same thing.
00:09:48.88\00:09:50.22
"So for the hour of
His judgment has come
00:09:50.25\00:09:52.52
and worship Him who
made heaven and earth,
00:09:52.55\00:09:54.26
the sea and the
springs of water."
00:09:54.29\00:09:56.42
And so what this present truth,
00:09:56.46\00:09:59.29
beautiful first angel's
message is telling us is that,
00:09:59.33\00:10:02.60
hey,
00:10:02.63\00:10:04.13
why do we need to fear God,
00:10:04.17\00:10:05.87
why did we need to
return to worshiping Him?
00:10:05.90\00:10:08.40
Why do we need to
give Him all the glory now?
00:10:08.44\00:10:11.04
Because we're living in
a last day judgment hour
00:10:11.07\00:10:14.51
prior to the
Second Coming of Jesus.
00:10:14.54\00:10:16.08
Now when I think judgment,
00:10:16.11\00:10:17.68
if you are a
student of the Word of God,
00:10:17.71\00:10:19.71
then you know that
this is gonna link us back
00:10:19.75\00:10:22.32
I believe the
origin of this study.
00:10:22.35\00:10:24.35
And where we are now
is we're transitioning
00:10:24.39\00:10:25.95
from the Holy Place
into the Most Holy Place.
00:10:25.99\00:10:28.32
We're gonna find
ourselves in Daniel Chapter 8.
00:10:28.36\00:10:30.53
Which is kind of
really the foundation
00:10:30.56\00:10:34.33
passage of this whole thing
00:10:34.36\00:10:36.16
because if you don't
have Daniel Chapter 8,
00:10:36.20\00:10:38.63
then you really have no,
00:10:38.67\00:10:40.64
this restoration
cannot even exist
00:10:40.67\00:10:43.24
or happen
without Daniel Chapter 8.
00:10:43.27\00:10:45.77
And so we're in
Daniel Chapter 8.
00:10:45.81\00:10:47.28
Of course, Daniel,
of course, is in vision
00:10:47.31\00:10:49.41
and he's taking us through it.
00:10:49.44\00:10:51.45
As he's seeing these animals,
00:10:51.48\00:10:52.81
he's looking out
and he sees this ram
00:10:52.85\00:10:54.68
and this goat and
we're told right here
00:10:54.72\00:10:56.42
that this ram represents
the kingdom of Medo-Persia,
00:10:56.45\00:10:59.22
so he's kind of taking us
00:10:59.25\00:11:00.89
through from his
perspective the future,
00:11:00.92\00:11:02.99
but, of course, we're
looking in hindsight back
00:11:03.02\00:11:04.96
at the kingdoms of the
world, the progression.
00:11:04.99\00:11:07.16
And, of course,
next he sees this goat
00:11:07.20\00:11:10.13
with one horn on its head
00:11:10.17\00:11:11.57
which we're told right
here in Daniel Chapter 8
00:11:11.60\00:11:13.70
that it is the nation of Greece,
00:11:13.74\00:11:15.17
so we see Medo-Persia, Greece
00:11:15.20\00:11:17.17
and then Daniel brings us
right up to the time of Rome.
00:11:17.21\00:11:20.98
And not just any
particular time of Rome,
00:11:21.01\00:11:23.04
because we know
historically Rome began
00:11:23.08\00:11:24.88
and started as kind of a
civil, political institution.
00:11:24.91\00:11:28.82
But then it evolves
into and transitions
00:11:28.85\00:11:31.32
into a religio-political system,
00:11:31.35\00:11:33.62
an amalgamation
of church and state,
00:11:33.66\00:11:35.72
and so what we're reading here
00:11:35.76\00:11:37.09
beginning in verse 9 and onward,
00:11:37.13\00:11:39.16
notice what the Bible says.
00:11:39.19\00:11:40.56
Daniel 8:9
00:11:40.60\00:11:43.06
speaking of this
second beast, this, this goat.
00:11:43.10\00:11:47.04
Out of one of the goat's horns,
00:11:47.07\00:11:48.64
out of one of the
goat's four horns.
00:11:48.67\00:11:50.94
Notice what it says,
00:11:50.97\00:11:52.31
out of one them
came a little horn.
00:11:52.34\00:11:54.84
And so this is
that same little horn
00:11:54.88\00:11:56.41
that Daniel sees
in Daniel Chapter 7,
00:11:56.44\00:11:58.31
the previous chapter.
00:11:58.35\00:11:59.81
This Antichrist little
horn which no doubt in my mind
00:11:59.85\00:12:03.18
for those who are
students of the Bible, you know
00:12:03.22\00:12:06.65
that if you take
Bible and history,
00:12:06.69\00:12:08.09
we are no doubt
speaking of this time period
00:12:08.12\00:12:10.96
of this
religio-political papal system.
00:12:10.99\00:12:13.90
So we're talking about
Roman papal church-state.
00:12:13.93\00:12:16.26
And so this little horn
00:12:16.30\00:12:17.63
which grew exceedingly
great toward the South,
00:12:17.67\00:12:20.17
toward the East, and
toward the glorious land
00:12:20.20\00:12:22.67
and here come our clues here,
00:12:22.70\00:12:24.87
and it grew up to
the host of heaven
00:12:24.91\00:12:27.08
and it cast down
00:12:27.11\00:12:28.44
some of the host
of some of the stars
00:12:28.48\00:12:30.41
to the ground and
trampled upon them.
00:12:30.45\00:12:32.58
So this, he's
growing exceedingly great.
00:12:32.61\00:12:35.12
And then notice verse 11,
00:12:35.15\00:12:36.48
"He even exalted himself
00:12:36.52\00:12:37.85
as high as the
Prince of the host."
00:12:37.89\00:12:39.22
So here comes this blasphemy.
00:12:39.25\00:12:41.46
Remember Daniel Chapter
7, he speaks great words
00:12:41.49\00:12:44.23
and then Revelation
13 says, and blasphemy,
00:12:44.26\00:12:46.63
so this is a blasphemous power.
00:12:46.66\00:12:48.40
He thinks to exalt
himself as high as Jesus,
00:12:48.43\00:12:51.73
the Prince of the host.
00:12:51.77\00:12:53.10
Yes.
00:12:53.13\00:12:54.47
And so notice what
it continues to say,
00:12:54.50\00:12:55.84
"As high as the Prince of host
and by him the daily," okay.
00:12:55.87\00:13:01.18
And your Bible might
say sacrifices behind them.
00:13:01.21\00:13:03.85
You'll see that
word is, it's italicized
00:13:03.88\00:13:05.85
because it's
not in the original,
00:13:05.88\00:13:07.52
but the daily
00:13:07.55\00:13:09.32
which is sanctuary
terminology is taken away.
00:13:09.35\00:13:12.35
Notice, "were taken away
00:13:12.39\00:13:14.02
and the place of his
sanctuary was cast down."
00:13:14.06\00:13:18.49
And it goes on to
tell us in verse 12,
00:13:18.53\00:13:20.06
"Because of transgression
an army was given over to him,
00:13:20.10\00:13:22.56
to oppose the daily
00:13:22.60\00:13:23.97
and to cast truth to the ground
00:13:24.00\00:13:26.53
and he did all
this and prospered."
00:13:26.57\00:13:27.90
Have mercy, that's right.
00:13:27.94\00:13:29.27
And so what we're seeing is
God is clearly revealing to us
00:13:29.30\00:13:31.91
from Daniel's perspective,
future prophetic events.
00:13:31.94\00:13:35.58
We're now here.
00:13:35.61\00:13:36.95
We're past that point.
00:13:36.98\00:13:38.31
We're looking in hindsight back
00:13:38.35\00:13:39.68
and we're seeing all of
this has been fulfilled already
00:13:39.71\00:13:42.38
and which this Roman papal
church-state system in history,
00:13:42.42\00:13:46.39
probably around
the early 500s A.D
00:13:46.42\00:13:49.22
began to cast down
00:13:49.26\00:13:50.86
and trample upon
God's sanctuary message.
00:13:50.89\00:13:54.16
And, of course, who is
the antagonistic figure
00:13:54.20\00:13:56.63
behind all of this?
00:13:56.67\00:13:58.00
The devil.
00:13:58.03\00:13:59.37
Because the Bible
says in Revelation 13
00:13:59.40\00:14:00.74
that he gives
his power, his seat,
00:14:00.77\00:14:02.37
and his great authority.
00:14:02.40\00:14:03.74
So the devil is
the root cause of this.
00:14:03.77\00:14:05.67
The devil knows, I just gotta.
00:14:05.71\00:14:07.14
I'm gonna toss
the ball to you guys
00:14:07.18\00:14:08.91
because I get
excited about this topic.
00:14:08.94\00:14:10.51
I don't wanna
talk all this time,
00:14:10.55\00:14:11.88
but I wanna make this
very clear, the devil knows...
00:14:11.91\00:14:14.02
Yes, he does.
00:14:14.05\00:14:15.38
That if he can
attack the sanctuary truth,
00:14:15.42\00:14:18.19
because the devil knows that
within the sanctuary message
00:14:18.22\00:14:20.52
is the plan of salvation.
00:14:20.56\00:14:22.19
He knows that if we comprehend
the importance of the symbolism
00:14:22.22\00:14:25.16
of what all of
these things mean,
00:14:25.19\00:14:26.83
that we'll clearly see
00:14:26.86\00:14:28.20
God's progressive plan
of salvation for our life.
00:14:28.23\00:14:30.40
And so what does he do
around the early 500s A.D.?
00:14:30.43\00:14:33.13
He raises up a
counterfeit priesthood.
00:14:33.17\00:14:35.97
And then one by one
00:14:36.00\00:14:37.41
over a period
of about 1000 years
00:14:37.44\00:14:39.31
we see that these truths
of God's sanctuary message
00:14:39.34\00:14:43.04
is being plucked
out one by one by one.
00:14:43.08\00:14:46.05
And so that's why when we
get to Daniel 8:14, Donald,
00:14:46.08\00:14:49.52
and we're gonna talk
about this 2,300 years.
00:14:49.55\00:14:51.92
God says, you know what?
00:14:51.95\00:14:53.29
There's a period of 2,300 years
00:14:53.32\00:14:54.76
in which I'm going to
cleanse the sanctuary.
00:14:54.79\00:14:57.49
And by the end of that
2,300 year time period,
00:14:57.53\00:15:00.20
which we're gonna see
brings us to the year 1844,
00:15:00.23\00:15:03.30
God has promised
that by the year 1844,
00:15:03.33\00:15:05.93
the end of this
2,300 year time prophecy
00:15:05.97\00:15:09.07
that his,
00:15:09.10\00:15:10.71
the completeness of
His sanctuary message
00:15:10.74\00:15:12.71
is gonna be restored
and it's gonna be cleansed.
00:15:12.74\00:15:15.38
And now we're here.
00:15:15.41\00:15:16.75
We're here. We're
living in that time.
00:15:16.78\00:15:18.11
That's right. Yes. Yeah.
00:15:18.15\00:15:19.65
Can I just
insert one little thing,
00:15:19.68\00:15:21.45
just for those
maybe at home that have,
00:15:21.48\00:15:23.59
don't understand
00:15:23.62\00:15:24.95
or maybe never
read it in the Bible,
00:15:24.99\00:15:26.42
but you said the devil knows.
00:15:26.45\00:15:28.02
The devil knows because
he was a covering cherub
00:15:28.06\00:15:31.19
over the Ark of the Covenant
in heaven over God's law.
00:15:31.23\00:15:36.13
And what's so very vital
00:15:36.16\00:15:38.23
and I think interesting to note.
00:15:38.27\00:15:40.04
The first war of all
wars began in heaven.
00:15:40.07\00:15:44.81
And it was over what was
in the Ark of the Covenant,
00:15:44.84\00:15:48.58
the law of God.
00:15:48.61\00:15:50.38
And so, now here we
are at the very end,
00:15:50.41\00:15:52.78
the very last war will
be over the law of God.
00:15:52.81\00:15:57.79
So interesting. That's right.
00:15:57.82\00:15:59.19
So he knows the
sanctuary because he was a...
00:15:59.22\00:16:03.63
He had a high
place as a ark cherub.
00:16:03.66\00:16:06.96
He knows it better than anyone.
00:16:07.00\00:16:08.33
Right, a
covering cherub. Exactly.
00:16:08.36\00:16:10.17
And he used to keep that law.
00:16:10.20\00:16:11.53
That's right. Amen.
00:16:11.57\00:16:12.90
Until he decided that
he was... So this should...
00:16:12.93\00:16:14.60
I mean this
really should excite us
00:16:14.64\00:16:16.04
to realize that
we have a mission.
00:16:16.07\00:16:18.81
We have something
which we should be doing
00:16:18.84\00:16:20.88
that God's ordained that we do
00:16:20.91\00:16:22.38
and we are to not get
distracted by other things.
00:16:22.41\00:16:24.81
That's right.
00:16:24.85\00:16:26.45
You feel the urgency of it.
00:16:26.48\00:16:27.98
And we know what
we should be doing.
00:16:28.02\00:16:29.35
What do you think
we should be doing now?
00:16:29.38\00:16:30.72
You know while speaking
to me when you're talking,
00:16:30.75\00:16:32.59
what hit my mind
was to seeing Jesus
00:16:32.62\00:16:34.89
in the world is being tempted.
00:16:34.92\00:16:36.86
I thought about
that last one he said,
00:16:36.89\00:16:38.36
but if you'll fall
down and worship me,
00:16:38.39\00:16:40.93
I'll give you all these worlds.
00:16:40.96\00:16:42.30
And I was just like,
00:16:42.33\00:16:43.67
that just caught
me when you said that,
00:16:43.70\00:16:45.03
you know this idea that
Satan wants to be worshiped.
00:16:45.07\00:16:46.40
So what is he gonna do?
00:16:46.43\00:16:47.77
He's gonna
trample down the truth,
00:16:47.80\00:16:49.14
so he will be the
one that's lifted up.
00:16:49.17\00:16:50.61
He said, "I
will be like the God,
00:16:50.64\00:16:51.97
the Most High God,
00:16:52.01\00:16:53.34
so, yeah, I think she's
gonna piggyback on something.
00:16:53.38\00:16:55.08
Well, because
when you think about
00:16:55.11\00:16:57.35
he was tempted with the
bread, the table of showbread.
00:16:57.38\00:17:00.38
You know he was... Uh-oh.
00:17:00.42\00:17:01.75
He was...
00:17:01.78\00:17:03.72
The Devil said, I'll
give you the whole world,
00:17:03.75\00:17:05.55
like you just read the
light, the candlestick,
00:17:05.59\00:17:08.62
you know because that
represents God's Church.
00:17:08.66\00:17:10.79
"I'll give you the
church, you want the church?
00:17:10.83\00:17:12.66
Just fall down and worship me.
00:17:12.69\00:17:14.36
And what was the
other one, the third?
00:17:14.40\00:17:15.80
Thrown down from, right?
00:17:15.83\00:17:17.17
Yeah. Yeah.
00:17:17.20\00:17:18.53
Thrown down.
00:17:18.57\00:17:19.90
But the third one.
00:17:19.93\00:17:21.27
I know had to do
with the altar of incense,
00:17:21.30\00:17:22.64
but I can't think what it was.
00:17:22.67\00:17:24.01
If you can help
me here, anybody?
00:17:24.04\00:17:25.37
I'm drawing now by myself.
00:17:25.41\00:17:26.74
Okay, all right, but I
know, but what's interesting is
00:17:26.78\00:17:28.41
because he knows this,
00:17:28.44\00:17:29.94
he understands
the sanctuary message
00:17:29.98\00:17:31.91
and every one of
those temptations
00:17:31.95\00:17:33.28
had to do with
something in the sanctuary.
00:17:33.31\00:17:35.68
Because he's talking
about the altar of incense,
00:17:35.72\00:17:37.42
and you're talking about
prayer in the essence of Christ.
00:17:37.45\00:17:40.09
And what the
enemy wants us to do?
00:17:40.12\00:17:41.69
He wants us
certainly to pray to him,
00:17:41.72\00:17:43.43
but in our movement
00:17:43.46\00:17:44.79
that we're talking
about in the sanctuary here.
00:17:44.83\00:17:46.16
Remember, in the Holy Place is
where He went for 18 centuries.
00:17:46.19\00:17:49.53
That's where Jesus were.
00:17:49.56\00:17:50.90
Then He made His move,
00:17:50.93\00:17:52.27
but the majority
of the Christian world
00:17:52.30\00:17:53.64
did what?
00:17:53.67\00:17:55.04
They stayed in the
Holy Place. That's right.
00:17:55.07\00:17:56.74
It's where the
prayers are being offered now
00:17:56.77\00:17:58.54
into the Holy Place.
00:17:58.57\00:17:59.94
So they cannot
be answered by God
00:17:59.97\00:18:02.18
because we must follow
Jesus into the Most Holy,
00:18:02.21\00:18:04.75
so the enemy then is
taking over as it were
00:18:04.78\00:18:07.42
and he's making
other folks think,
00:18:07.45\00:18:09.88
and you don't have
to be one of those.
00:18:09.92\00:18:11.25
We're not trying
to point fingers,
00:18:11.29\00:18:12.62
but if we're still
in the Holy Place...
00:18:12.65\00:18:15.19
Since 1844,
00:18:15.22\00:18:16.56
we need to move
to the Most Holy...
00:18:16.59\00:18:17.93
Right. That's right.
00:18:17.96\00:18:19.29
Where we can be
benefited by His merits
00:18:19.33\00:18:20.96
and what He's doing
on our behalf right now.
00:18:21.00\00:18:22.76
Amen. Amen. Amen.
00:18:22.80\00:18:24.20
There's a
scripture that touches me,
00:18:24.23\00:18:26.33
just real quick, Psalms 68:24
00:18:26.37\00:18:28.50
and it just the
Lord brought me to this.
00:18:28.54\00:18:30.41
I'm going to read the
King James version, I think,
00:18:30.44\00:18:32.07
it says, "They see
your goings, O God,
00:18:32.11\00:18:34.14
even the solemn
processions, of my God, my King,
00:18:34.18\00:18:37.88
into the
sanctuary and the holiness."
00:18:37.91\00:18:39.91
What that's saying there is,
00:18:39.95\00:18:41.28
is saying they're watching God
00:18:41.32\00:18:42.72
go through the different
elements in the sanctuary,
00:18:42.75\00:18:45.15
so they're
watching the procession
00:18:45.19\00:18:46.52
what God's doing
in that sanctuary.
00:18:46.55\00:18:47.89
Isn't that
amazing? That's right.
00:18:47.92\00:18:49.26
You know once you begin
00:18:49.29\00:18:50.63
to kind of become
aware of the sanctuary,
00:18:50.66\00:18:52.93
all of a sudden you see
different parts of history
00:18:52.96\00:18:57.07
that all follow the sanctuary.
00:18:57.10\00:18:59.23
The Bible says, what is it?
00:18:59.27\00:19:00.60
Pslams, "Thy way, O
God, is in the sanctuary."
00:19:00.64\00:19:04.27
So the history of the church,
even the different experiences
00:19:04.31\00:19:08.61
that they had,
the Israelites had,
00:19:08.64\00:19:10.45
they were
following the procession
00:19:10.48\00:19:12.31
through the sanctuary.
00:19:12.35\00:19:13.68
That's right. It's amazing.
00:19:13.72\00:19:15.05
So the bottom line is
this good news or bad news?
00:19:15.08\00:19:17.25
It's good news. Good news.
00:19:17.29\00:19:18.69
It's good news because
the truth shall set you free.
00:19:18.72\00:19:20.99
Exactly. Exactly.
00:19:21.02\00:19:22.36
So does that mean some
people have more information
00:19:22.39\00:19:24.83
than other people or
are we all on the same page,
00:19:24.86\00:19:27.13
or some people
more hungry and thirsty
00:19:27.16\00:19:30.10
and they're trying
to figure things out?
00:19:30.13\00:19:32.50
Do you know what?
00:19:32.53\00:19:33.87
I've always said because
it's a gift of the Holy Spirit
00:19:33.90\00:19:35.77
for us to be hungry and thirsty.
00:19:35.80\00:19:37.71
And a lot of times we
come to the realization
00:19:37.74\00:19:40.11
that we should be
hungry and thirsty,
00:19:40.14\00:19:41.68
but we're really not.
00:19:41.71\00:19:43.24
So I've often
encouraged people, pray.
00:19:43.28\00:19:46.35
Pray that God will give you that
00:19:46.38\00:19:48.05
through the power
of the Holy Spirit,
00:19:48.08\00:19:49.68
a hunger and a thirst
for righteousness, for truth.
00:19:49.72\00:19:53.15
Because when you
begin to pray for truth,
00:19:53.19\00:19:55.19
things begin to change.
00:19:55.22\00:19:56.86
You know, I wish I was saying
when the cameras were off,
00:19:56.89\00:19:59.93
because some
people sitting around me
00:19:59.96\00:20:01.56
just have such a wonderful
00:20:01.60\00:20:03.67
recollection of the Word of God,
00:20:03.70\00:20:05.57
and they can retain it
and then they can recall it.
00:20:05.60\00:20:08.00
And I feel like I
have to go in and search
00:20:08.04\00:20:09.97
and I need to
have it in front of me,
00:20:10.01\00:20:11.34
you know, because I
just don't have that.
00:20:11.37\00:20:12.71
I'd love to have that but,
00:20:12.74\00:20:14.54
you know, the
beautiful thing is,
00:20:14.58\00:20:16.44
it's there for us.
00:20:16.48\00:20:17.81
We can, right
now we have so many,
00:20:17.85\00:20:21.25
so many options
to get this truth,
00:20:21.28\00:20:24.05
but we have to learn
to eat of that bread,
00:20:24.09\00:20:26.76
which is part of
that bread of life
00:20:26.79\00:20:29.02
which is Christ.
00:20:29.06\00:20:30.39
You know the Word of
God, He said He is the word,
00:20:30.43\00:20:32.36
and we need to learn to
pray the altar of incense.
00:20:32.39\00:20:35.70
And so, then our
lights will begin to shine,
00:20:35.73\00:20:38.37
whether it's a
little bit or a lot.
00:20:38.40\00:20:39.73
God didn't say
how much, you know,
00:20:39.77\00:20:41.14
He just wants us to learn
00:20:41.17\00:20:42.67
and He will
judge us accordingly.
00:20:42.70\00:20:44.41
Brother JD opened the box there,
00:20:44.44\00:20:45.87
didn't he, when
you set us about...
00:20:45.91\00:20:47.31
Because you're hungry.
00:20:47.34\00:20:48.68
You sit down at a table that's,
00:20:48.71\00:20:50.05
I mean that's got a lot
of nice good food on it,
00:20:50.08\00:20:51.41
physically, right?
00:20:51.45\00:20:52.78
And you've just
eaten a little bit before.
00:20:52.81\00:20:54.75
You really can't fool
anybody at that table.
00:20:54.78\00:20:57.32
They're gonna know
how you're kinda picking
00:20:57.35\00:20:59.15
and eating and you're not.
00:20:59.19\00:21:00.52
Oh, yeah.
00:21:00.56\00:21:01.89
Use that spiritually,
you know what I mean,
00:21:01.92\00:21:03.26
and when you're really
hungry and you sit down.
00:21:03.29\00:21:05.09
When I sit down, you
gonna know I'm hungry.
00:21:05.13\00:21:06.93
Oh, yes. Yeah, you wanna eat it.
00:21:06.96\00:21:08.30
Gonna perform a magic trick.
00:21:08.33\00:21:09.66
Yeah, I'm gonna go right ahead
00:21:09.70\00:21:11.03
and just keep
right on going, you know.
00:21:11.07\00:21:12.40
That's right.
00:21:12.43\00:21:13.77
And spiritually, I
think, we need to make sure
00:21:13.80\00:21:15.14
like we're
hungering and thirsting.
00:21:15.17\00:21:16.50
We come to the Word of
God, we open it up in faith
00:21:16.54\00:21:19.01
believing and praying
00:21:19.04\00:21:20.38
that the Holy
Spirit will be sent
00:21:20.41\00:21:21.74
that will lead
us into all truth.
00:21:21.78\00:21:23.11
Believe it's going to happen.
00:21:23.14\00:21:24.78
Believe that God's
going to do great things.
00:21:24.81\00:21:26.28
And we see that
in the Word of God.
00:21:26.31\00:21:28.38
Sometimes it's the
people that have...
00:21:28.42\00:21:31.15
It appears as though
they've done the worst sin.
00:21:31.19\00:21:35.36
And then when they
come to that bread of life,
00:21:35.39\00:21:38.53
they're so hungry,
00:21:38.56\00:21:40.30
they just wanna cram it all in,
00:21:40.33\00:21:42.46
get as much as possible,
00:21:42.50\00:21:44.10
but sometimes when
we're, we feel like we're full
00:21:44.13\00:21:46.60
and in need of nothing,
we're like, maybe, you know,
00:21:46.63\00:21:49.00
I don't know if
that's right or wrong.
00:21:49.04\00:21:50.81
Yeah, so we need
to pray to be hungry.
00:21:50.84\00:21:54.71
What did Jesus say in His
first sermon on the mount?
00:21:54.74\00:21:57.45
He said, "Blessed are those
00:21:57.48\00:21:59.88
who hunger and
thirst for righteousness."
00:21:59.91\00:22:02.45
And we're in that time
now, and I keep mentioning,
00:22:02.48\00:22:05.99
you know, present truth.
00:22:06.02\00:22:07.36
You know, truth is truth.
00:22:07.39\00:22:08.72
But we're talking about,
00:22:08.76\00:22:10.09
the message we're
talking about right now.
00:22:10.13\00:22:11.46
What Christ is doing
in the Most Holy Place
00:22:11.49\00:22:13.63
of the heavenly sanctuary,
00:22:13.66\00:22:15.00
that is the present
truth for this time.
00:22:15.03\00:22:16.93
And, you know, the question
I have as we're studying this.
00:22:16.97\00:22:19.77
We have over the last
four studies together,
00:22:19.80\00:22:23.87
we have seen this clear
progressive restoration.
00:22:23.91\00:22:27.38
As we see the devil
begin to take them all back,
00:22:27.41\00:22:30.28
the Lord said, no.
00:22:30.31\00:22:31.65
I'm gonna raise up a movement
that's gonna replace this.
00:22:31.68\00:22:34.32
So we saw Martin Luther
00:22:34.35\00:22:36.05
and the movement
of the Lutheran's
00:22:36.08\00:22:37.42
replace the altar of sacrifice.
00:22:37.45\00:22:39.82
We saw clearly how
00:22:39.85\00:22:41.32
the Anabaptist
movement replaced the truth
00:22:41.36\00:22:44.26
behind the laver,
00:22:44.29\00:22:45.63
which is the
truth behind baptism
00:22:45.66\00:22:47.00
and the washing away of sins.
00:22:47.03\00:22:48.50
We saw clearly
how the beautiful,
00:22:48.53\00:22:53.10
the message behind
the table of showbread.
00:22:53.13\00:22:55.57
How the Lord raised
up during that time,
00:22:55.60\00:22:57.77
Wycliffe,
Wycliffe, John Wycliffe.
00:22:57.81\00:22:59.77
And how him and the Lollards
begin to raise up a movement
00:22:59.81\00:23:02.88
to bring emphasis
00:23:02.91\00:23:04.25
and importance
back to the Word of God
00:23:04.28\00:23:05.95
and putting it into
the hands of the people
00:23:05.98\00:23:07.62
so that they can
read it for themselves.
00:23:07.65\00:23:09.08
The devil doesn't
want you reading the Bible.
00:23:09.12\00:23:10.89
He doesn't want you studying
the Word of God for yourself.
00:23:10.92\00:23:13.39
And so, we see that the
Lord raised up this mighty men.
00:23:13.42\00:23:15.89
He would raise up John Wesley
00:23:15.92\00:23:17.63
and the beautiful movement
there of the Methodist movement
00:23:17.66\00:23:22.36
to replace the lampstand.
00:23:22.40\00:23:24.30
And then we see John
Calvin and the Presbyterians
00:23:24.33\00:23:28.40
as he brings back
00:23:28.44\00:23:29.77
the importance of
not praying to a man
00:23:29.80\00:23:31.34
but praying to God.
00:23:31.37\00:23:32.71
And so we see through
time, God progressively,
00:23:32.74\00:23:34.91
but now here come the question.
00:23:34.94\00:23:38.01
The sanctuary is not completed
00:23:38.05\00:23:39.38
until you go into
the Most Holy Place.
00:23:39.41\00:23:41.28
And so now we get to this
last article of furniture,
00:23:41.32\00:23:44.39
the Ark of the Covenant.
00:23:44.42\00:23:46.76
The Ark of the Covenant,
and so what's inside that box?
00:23:46.79\00:23:50.76
God's holy Ten Commandment law.
00:23:50.79\00:23:52.73
And the devil... Absolutely.
00:23:52.76\00:23:54.90
And so the devil has
now during that papal reign,
00:23:54.93\00:23:58.17
that Dark Ages,
00:23:58.20\00:23:59.97
he has replaced God's holy
law with traditions of men.
00:24:00.00\00:24:05.77
So now how, since he's used
all these other powerful men
00:24:05.81\00:24:08.44
in movements to help
bring the truth back.
00:24:08.48\00:24:11.21
Who is he gonna
raise up to bring back
00:24:11.25\00:24:13.05
the truth of His Holy
Place, His Most Holy Place?
00:24:13.08\00:24:16.55
Yes, I think it's
important what you just covered
00:24:16.58\00:24:18.52
because this was in my mind too,
00:24:18.55\00:24:20.76
is we're
building on the foundation
00:24:20.79\00:24:22.52
of those who
have come before us.
00:24:22.56\00:24:23.89
That's right. That's right.
00:24:23.93\00:24:25.26
And so there was
a great awakening,
00:24:25.29\00:24:27.03
you know, you can
look back in history
00:24:27.06\00:24:28.83
and it calls it
a great religious
00:24:28.86\00:24:31.73
or spiritual awakening
that occurred in the 1800s.
00:24:31.77\00:24:34.14
It wasn't just
in the United States
00:24:34.17\00:24:35.60
but it was worldwide.
00:24:35.64\00:24:37.01
And people began to
look at these prophecies
00:24:37.04\00:24:39.67
and God did raise up a
people, and eventually they did,
00:24:39.71\00:24:43.58
I guess I'll just say it,
00:24:43.61\00:24:44.95
they did become the
Seventh-day Adventist.
00:24:44.98\00:24:46.88
And it's really,
00:24:46.92\00:24:48.25
if you are a
Seventh-day Adventist,
00:24:48.28\00:24:49.62
or you look at this message,
00:24:49.65\00:24:50.99
it is a message
of prophetic destiny.
00:24:51.02\00:24:54.69
Because we're building on those,
00:24:54.72\00:24:56.76
those, how do I put it?
00:24:56.79\00:24:58.86
Those blocks or
those foundations
00:24:58.89\00:25:00.66
that came before us
00:25:00.70\00:25:02.03
through all these
other men that God rose up.
00:25:02.06\00:25:04.30
And it wasn't just
one man at one time.
00:25:04.33\00:25:06.77
He had others
that came in and helped
00:25:06.80\00:25:08.77
and began to share the Word.
00:25:08.80\00:25:10.51
And what's interesting,
say if you were a Baptist.
00:25:10.54\00:25:13.78
You see at that time everybody
believed in sprinkling.
00:25:13.81\00:25:16.48
So if you began to speak
about baptism by immersion
00:25:16.51\00:25:19.18
which is what we found
out that the Bible teaches,
00:25:19.21\00:25:21.82
you know, you
would be called strange.
00:25:21.85\00:25:24.49
You know, they'd wanna stay
away from you, you'd be a...
00:25:24.52\00:25:26.25
You'd be persecuted. A cult.
00:25:26.29\00:25:27.62
Well, yeah. How about in a cult.
00:25:27.66\00:25:29.02
Have Advenists ever
been accused of being a cult?
00:25:29.06\00:25:31.36
Yes. Yes.
00:25:31.39\00:25:32.83
You know by putting
the Word of God back,
00:25:32.86\00:25:34.66
and you said that
they had their own law
00:25:34.70\00:25:37.23
but you know God, not God,
00:25:37.27\00:25:38.87
but the devil has tried to
nail God's law to the cross.
00:25:38.90\00:25:42.07
He is done away
with. That's right.
00:25:42.10\00:25:43.71
Basically we can be
good without the law.
00:25:43.74\00:25:46.57
We don't need a law.
00:25:46.61\00:25:47.94
How many of you
have ever heard that.
00:25:47.98\00:25:49.31
I don't need a
law, I don't need rules.
00:25:49.34\00:25:51.11
I'm going back to teenager time.
00:25:51.15\00:25:52.88
You know, go
back to high school.
00:25:52.91\00:25:54.25
I don't need rules
to help me to be good,
00:25:54.28\00:25:56.35
I'm good on my own.
00:25:56.38\00:25:57.72
See that was the beginning,
the original lie, part of it,
00:25:57.75\00:26:01.16
and that's what
continued throughout history,
00:26:01.19\00:26:03.86
and that's what
we're dealing with now.
00:26:03.89\00:26:05.56
People want to go to church,
they want to have a good time,
00:26:05.59\00:26:08.60
but when it comes to
studying and not just reading,
00:26:08.63\00:26:12.10
but getting in there
and digging for treasure.
00:26:12.13\00:26:15.67
And allowing the Word
of God to interpret itself.
00:26:15.70\00:26:17.97
Yes, yes, that is the key.
00:26:18.01\00:26:19.67
Allowing God to tell
you what God means, that's,
00:26:19.71\00:26:22.61
that's very important, so...
00:26:22.64\00:26:23.98
You know, you've seen
in all these little ones
00:26:24.01\00:26:25.35
you were talking
about, all these,
00:26:25.38\00:26:27.02
most people it
seems like are Christians
00:26:27.05\00:26:28.82
really are not
having much of a problem.
00:26:28.85\00:26:31.29
They go around
whether it's a Bible
00:26:31.32\00:26:32.92
and studying and
praying and witnessing that,
00:26:32.95\00:26:34.96
but now we are in the heavy duty
00:26:34.99\00:26:36.73
that you said
they're most important.
00:26:36.76\00:26:38.49
I think it was.
00:26:38.53\00:26:39.86
The Ten Commandment law is
where the issue boils down to.
00:26:39.89\00:26:43.30
Isn't that interesting?
00:26:43.33\00:26:45.43
I read, I think it
was Exodus Chapter 40,
00:26:45.47\00:26:48.60
when God said to put the
stuff into the sanctuary,
00:26:48.64\00:26:52.44
I don't think I knew
this before but Moses did it.
00:26:52.47\00:26:55.64
I'm thinking, why didn't I
that just registered with me.
00:26:55.68\00:26:58.71
Moses put those
pieces of furniture in there.
00:26:58.75\00:27:01.78
And notice how he, at
least the way I read this.
00:27:01.82\00:27:05.25
He started from the
Most Holy Place first
00:27:05.29\00:27:08.39
and worked his way out,
because the law is the center.
00:27:08.42\00:27:12.99
Jesus is certainly the center,
00:27:13.03\00:27:14.36
but the law of God is
the throne room of God,
00:27:14.40\00:27:16.97
that incorporates God and Christ
00:27:17.00\00:27:19.40
that is His throne
which is unchangeable.
00:27:19.43\00:27:21.87
It tells that the law
of God is unchangeable.
00:27:21.90\00:27:24.11
So I thought it
was very interesting.
00:27:24.14\00:27:26.14
He said like in verse 3,
00:27:26.17\00:27:27.51
"And thou shall put there
in the Ark of the Testament."
00:27:27.54\00:27:29.84
So when he was,
00:27:29.88\00:27:31.21
I want to say decorating, right?
00:27:31.25\00:27:32.58
Decorating, putting
it, he told him first,
00:27:32.61\00:27:35.15
get the Ten
Commandment law, get that Ark,
00:27:35.18\00:27:37.45
that box and put it,
you know, put that in there,
00:27:37.49\00:27:41.56
and we're gonna work from
there because that is what?
00:27:41.59\00:27:44.43
That represents what?
00:27:44.46\00:27:45.79
God's throne, does
it not? That's right.
00:27:45.83\00:27:47.60
God's throne where
everything else emanates from.
00:27:47.63\00:27:50.57
And I thought, you
know that, I, silly of me.
00:27:50.60\00:27:53.67
I just hadn't
really thought of it
00:27:53.70\00:27:55.04
that way before as far as,
00:27:55.07\00:27:56.40
you can't start from
the outward and go in.
00:27:56.44\00:27:58.34
But God said,
I'm going to show you
00:27:58.37\00:27:59.71
what the center
of it is all about.
00:27:59.74\00:28:01.08
Yes, the
foundation of His government.
00:28:01.11\00:28:02.88
And really we're
talking about the judgment hour.
00:28:02.91\00:28:05.45
What are we being judged on?
00:28:05.48\00:28:08.72
Or by? The law of God.
00:28:08.75\00:28:11.02
The law of God,
00:28:11.05\00:28:12.39
so that is one reason why
it is so vitally important.
00:28:12.42\00:28:16.09
The devil understood this.
00:28:16.12\00:28:17.56
I just thought of
Revelation 12:17, the devil,
00:28:17.59\00:28:21.26
the dragon was
wroth with the woman.
00:28:21.30\00:28:23.60
See this is the
woman is this last church,
00:28:23.63\00:28:26.07
this last movement
that's bringing this law back
00:28:26.10\00:28:29.37
and saying, look
people, this is the law,
00:28:29.40\00:28:31.51
this is what the
judgment hour is all about.
00:28:31.54\00:28:34.48
This is what you need
to, you'll be judged by.
00:28:34.51\00:28:39.41
It says, "The dragon
was wroth with the woman
00:28:39.45\00:28:41.35
and went to make
war with the remnant,"
00:28:41.38\00:28:43.28
the last part and
I always like this,
00:28:43.32\00:28:45.15
you know, those of us who sew
or used to sew when I had time.
00:28:45.19\00:28:48.62
You know you
get a bolt of fabric
00:28:48.66\00:28:50.29
and at the very end we
call that remnant pieces.
00:28:50.33\00:28:52.73
Sometimes we'd go
buy remnant pieces
00:28:52.76\00:28:54.60
because they were
cheaper at the store.
00:28:54.63\00:28:56.67
But that pattern
was exactly the same
00:28:56.70\00:28:59.10
from the beginning of that bolt,
00:28:59.13\00:29:00.87
the pattern here,
00:29:00.90\00:29:02.24
this remnant church
is exactly the same.
00:29:02.27\00:29:04.27
This is the way
God wanted His church
00:29:04.31\00:29:06.51
to be from the very beginning.
00:29:06.54\00:29:08.44
So with the remnant of her seed
which keep the commandments.
00:29:08.48\00:29:12.51
Revelation 12:17,
which keep the commandments.
00:29:12.55\00:29:15.68
So if they were
done at the cross,
00:29:15.72\00:29:17.05
would it be in Revelation,
00:29:17.09\00:29:18.42
would John be
talking about it then,
00:29:18.45\00:29:19.79
this was after the cross.
00:29:19.82\00:29:21.16
You know, they
were not done away with,
00:29:21.19\00:29:22.66
which keep the commandments,
it doesn't say nine-tenths,
00:29:22.69\00:29:26.23
or three-fourths,
00:29:26.26\00:29:27.60
or whatever you wanna pick out.
00:29:27.63\00:29:28.96
That's right.
00:29:29.00\00:29:30.33
It says, "Which keep
the commandments of God
00:29:30.37\00:29:31.70
and have the
testimony of Jesus Christ..."
00:29:31.73\00:29:34.57
"Or the spirit of prophecy."
00:29:34.60\00:29:35.97
So it's a beautiful,
00:29:36.00\00:29:37.34
two identifying
marks of this movement.
00:29:37.37\00:29:40.04
Amen. That's amazing.
00:29:40.08\00:29:41.41
It is amazing.
00:29:41.44\00:29:42.78
It's amazing and
what's so powerful,
00:29:42.81\00:29:44.48
when you think of
it in this sense, okay.
00:29:44.51\00:29:47.62
You guys are parents.
00:29:47.65\00:29:49.32
I don't have kids,
00:29:49.35\00:29:50.69
I don't think JD or
Donald have kids yet.
00:29:50.72\00:29:52.55
You guys raised kids.
00:29:52.59\00:29:53.92
Okay, you had a
home, you had a family
00:29:53.96\00:29:55.82
and you had rules in that home.
00:29:55.86\00:29:57.19
That's right. Okay.
00:29:57.23\00:29:58.56
In other words, you know,
00:29:58.59\00:30:00.00
I'm not gonna suspect
that a Christian family,
00:30:00.03\00:30:01.96
they don't want, they
want to raise their kids
00:30:02.00\00:30:03.70
in the way of the
Lord, as the Bible says.
00:30:03.73\00:30:05.33
And so you do all that you
can, the best to your ability
00:30:05.37\00:30:08.40
to protect that
little innocent mind.
00:30:08.44\00:30:10.41
And so you're not
gonna allow them to listen
00:30:10.44\00:30:12.37
to anything in that hall.
00:30:12.41\00:30:13.74
You're not gonna allow them
to watch anything in that home.
00:30:13.78\00:30:15.91
There's not gonna be
any negative influences
00:30:15.94\00:30:17.98
within the home that
you're raising that kid.
00:30:18.01\00:30:20.22
So in other words,
good Christian homes,
00:30:20.25\00:30:22.65
or any good home is gonna have
00:30:22.68\00:30:24.02
a series of moral rules
established in that home.
00:30:24.05\00:30:27.52
Now, you're not gonna allow
someone from off the street,
00:30:27.56\00:30:31.59
some random
Joe, that perhaps is,
00:30:31.63\00:30:34.10
and I'm just gonna say,
00:30:34.13\00:30:35.46
a pedophile to
come into your home.
00:30:35.50\00:30:37.50
Someone who violates
those principles in your home
00:30:37.53\00:30:40.17
because you're trying
to protect your kingdom,
00:30:40.20\00:30:43.54
you know, your home, your kids.
00:30:43.57\00:30:45.04
You just said a
keyword, the kingdom
00:30:45.07\00:30:47.38
because there is no
kingdom without a law.
00:30:47.41\00:30:50.18
And so now, let's
bring this full measure here
00:30:50.21\00:30:51.88
because this is powerful here,
00:30:51.91\00:30:53.25
when I think of
it in these terms.
00:30:53.28\00:30:55.48
God has a
kingdom, He has a home,
00:30:55.52\00:30:58.45
and He's went to
prepare us a place.
00:30:58.49\00:31:00.36
Yes. All right.
00:31:00.39\00:31:01.72
But here's the thing,
00:31:01.76\00:31:03.09
if we're gonna
dwell in God's home,
00:31:03.12\00:31:05.09
we have to abide
by the King's rules.
00:31:05.13\00:31:08.73
And I don't like
to necessarily apply,
00:31:08.76\00:31:10.87
you know, the concept of
rules to the Ten Commandments
00:31:10.90\00:31:13.44
but nonetheless,
they're the ten freedoms.
00:31:13.47\00:31:15.40
In God's kingdom you
have the freedom from sin.
00:31:15.44\00:31:18.47
There's no sin that
dwells in God's kingdom.
00:31:18.51\00:31:20.41
So that law,
00:31:20.44\00:31:21.78
what's the
significance of God's holy law?
00:31:21.81\00:31:24.21
On that law,
00:31:24.25\00:31:25.75
in that law is His character,
His divine moral character.
00:31:25.78\00:31:29.88
That when we
dwell in His presence
00:31:29.92\00:31:31.52
as in His home,
00:31:31.55\00:31:33.15
He's only going to allow
people to come into His home
00:31:33.19\00:31:36.26
that will abide by
the government of heaven,
00:31:36.29\00:31:38.73
the laws that govern heaven.
00:31:38.76\00:31:40.10
Are we not called
His children? Absolutely.
00:31:40.13\00:31:41.46
Now check this
out, this is powerful
00:31:41.50\00:31:43.00
because I don't have a
lot of time to show this,
00:31:43.03\00:31:44.37
but I gotta just at least
reference it really quickly.
00:31:44.40\00:31:47.44
We're in the throne room,
because the Most Holy Place
00:31:47.47\00:31:50.44
brings us into the
heavenly throne room of God.
00:31:50.47\00:31:53.38
And so we're talking
about the law of God here,
00:31:53.41\00:31:55.84
and we know that within
the heavenly Most Holy Place,
00:31:55.88\00:31:59.15
that throne room,
00:31:59.18\00:32:00.52
we know that the
law of God was there,
00:32:00.55\00:32:01.88
but I'm gonna take
this a step further.
00:32:01.92\00:32:03.25
When God was giving the
law to Moses, check this out,
00:32:03.28\00:32:05.72
I'm going to
reference Exodus 24:9-12.
00:32:05.75\00:32:09.49
Just go, if you have
time, go read Exodus 24:9-12
00:32:09.52\00:32:13.93
because what is
happening in this scene here,
00:32:13.96\00:32:15.93
Moses and the
children of Israel have heard
00:32:15.96\00:32:18.30
God verbally speak
the Ten Commandments
00:32:18.33\00:32:20.37
in Exodus 20.
00:32:20.40\00:32:21.74
But by the time you
get to the 24th Chapter,
00:32:21.77\00:32:23.71
now God has called
seventy of the elders of Israel
00:32:23.74\00:32:26.54
and Moses up the
mountain, of Mount Sinai.
00:32:26.57\00:32:29.64
And then they see
there, they look up
00:32:29.68\00:32:31.01
and they see the God of Israel,
and protruding from His feet,
00:32:31.05\00:32:34.05
the Bible says was
a beautiful paved work
00:32:34.08\00:32:36.82
of sapphire stone,
like, and the Bible says,
00:32:36.85\00:32:39.75
like the very
heavens in its clarity.
00:32:39.79\00:32:42.12
Now what's amazing here is
if you go read this verse here,
00:32:42.16\00:32:44.69
notice what the God of Israel,
notice what God tells Moses,
00:32:44.73\00:32:47.40
and this is verse 12, he says,
00:32:47.43\00:32:48.76
"Come up to me in the mountain
00:32:48.80\00:32:50.13
and be there and I
will give you tables of..."
00:32:50.17\00:32:53.03
Now in your Bible it's
gonna say tables of stone.
00:32:53.07\00:32:55.74
But in the original Hebrew,
it's tables of the stone.
00:32:55.77\00:33:00.68
Which stone? The foundation.
00:33:00.71\00:33:02.28
The sapphire stone that
was coming from His feet.
00:33:02.31\00:33:04.21
Now you say, Ryan,
what's significance is that?
00:33:04.25\00:33:06.45
When you go to Ezekiel 1:26,
and I'm making reference here,
00:33:06.48\00:33:10.25
Ezekiel 1:26 and Ezekiel 10:1.
00:33:10.29\00:33:13.59
Ezekiel was given a
vision of the Most Holy Place,
00:33:13.62\00:33:16.62
the heavenly throne room of God.
00:33:16.66\00:33:18.23
And guess what he
sees God seated on?
00:33:18.26\00:33:20.26
His throne. And what
is His throne made of?
00:33:20.30\00:33:23.47
Sapphire stone. Wow.
00:33:23.50\00:33:25.07
And so what we're seeing here is
00:33:25.10\00:33:26.84
within this Ark of the Covenant.
00:33:26.87\00:33:29.17
As we're going into
the Most Holy Place,
00:33:29.20\00:33:31.24
what God is communicating
by this is He's saying, look,
00:33:31.27\00:33:33.91
this is not just
some set or rules,
00:33:33.94\00:33:35.94
this is not just some, you know,
00:33:35.98\00:33:37.31
thou shalt not and thou shalt,
00:33:37.35\00:33:38.98
and do this and do that or else.
00:33:39.01\00:33:40.98
This is the Lord saying,
I want you in My kingdom,
00:33:41.02\00:33:43.55
but let me clearly
communicate this to you.
00:33:43.59\00:33:45.55
My kingdom is
foundationed on My character.
00:33:45.59\00:33:48.72
And My character is in My law.
00:33:48.76\00:33:51.29
And when I gave Moses
that first copy of the stones,
00:33:51.33\00:33:54.83
I etched it
from the very throne,
00:33:54.86\00:33:57.53
the very stone of My throne
00:33:57.57\00:33:59.07
to communicate the
importance of this law,
00:33:59.10\00:34:01.34
not that it saves you but
that because you are saved,
00:34:01.37\00:34:05.21
you want to be in line
with the character of the Lord.
00:34:05.24\00:34:08.78
And so God's gotta raise
up people in these last days.
00:34:08.81\00:34:11.35
Who's gonna preach
this message to the world?
00:34:11.38\00:34:13.25
Who's gonna let the world know
00:34:13.28\00:34:14.68
that while we're not
saved by the commandments,
00:34:14.72\00:34:16.95
the commandments are
the laws that govern heaven.
00:34:16.99\00:34:19.15
And if we're gonna be there,
00:34:19.19\00:34:20.72
we have to have God's character
replicated in us absolutely.
00:34:20.76\00:34:23.63
And the only reason we
fight the Ten Commandments
00:34:23.66\00:34:26.86
is because we are so entrenched
by the deceptions of the devil.
00:34:26.90\00:34:31.73
And so, you know, when we
look at the Ten Commandments
00:34:31.77\00:34:34.00
and we say, you know, thou shalt
00:34:34.04\00:34:36.27
not, thou shalt, what,
what, you know, wait a minute
00:34:36.30\00:34:38.14
because our
lifestyle doesn't live up to,
00:34:38.17\00:34:40.78
but that's what God is
doing, He's calling us up.
00:34:40.81\00:34:43.31
I think it's very
important that we mention
00:34:43.35\00:34:45.45
the seat covering the
law is a seat of mercy.
00:34:45.48\00:34:50.05
It's the mercy seat.
00:34:50.09\00:34:51.69
Praise God,
00:34:51.72\00:34:53.05
because what is the
penalty of breaking that law?
00:34:53.09\00:34:55.79
Death. Death.
00:34:55.82\00:34:57.63
We may not see it immediately
in our lifetime right now,
00:34:57.66\00:35:01.43
but we will see it.
00:35:01.46\00:35:03.26
And it's for all of us,
00:35:03.30\00:35:04.63
anyone that's ever
been born on this planet
00:35:04.67\00:35:06.53
will receive death
00:35:06.57\00:35:07.90
if they lived
not up to that law.
00:35:07.94\00:35:10.31
But then there's mercy.
00:35:10.34\00:35:11.71
God says, "I'm giving you mercy,
00:35:11.74\00:35:14.04
I'm giving you
grace, I love you so much."
00:35:14.08\00:35:16.44
And Jesus has paid the penalty.
00:35:16.48\00:35:19.45
If you just want
it, if you accept it.
00:35:19.48\00:35:22.35
By His stripes
you will be healed
00:35:22.38\00:35:24.72
from the sin of
breaking that law.
00:35:24.75\00:35:27.12
How beautiful can you get?
00:35:27.16\00:35:28.96
Not only is that His law,
00:35:28.99\00:35:30.66
it's the
foundation of His government,
00:35:30.69\00:35:32.76
it's the seat of His throne.
00:35:32.79\00:35:34.33
That's right, yeah.
Yeah, and you know...
00:35:34.36\00:35:36.30
But He's willing
to pay our penalty
00:35:36.33\00:35:39.43
to bring us back to
where He wants us to be,
00:35:39.47\00:35:42.30
to repopulate heaven.
00:35:42.34\00:35:44.47
The restitution of all things,
restore the angels that fell.
00:35:44.51\00:35:48.48
Restore all the angels.
00:35:48.51\00:35:49.84
We don't know how many angels
there will restore the angels.
00:35:49.88\00:35:51.21
And you have that,
you have that mercy seat
00:35:51.25\00:35:53.01
that you
mentioned, I was just like,
00:35:53.05\00:35:54.55
praise God for mercy and grace.
00:35:54.58\00:35:56.99
But that mercy
seat that was on there,
00:35:57.02\00:35:58.72
the cover of the
Ark which was what,
00:35:58.75\00:36:00.56
maybe 4 feet 4 inches
or so about, 2.7 high.
00:36:00.59\00:36:06.46
But you know this mercy seat
00:36:06.49\00:36:08.33
was made out of one
solid piece of gold.
00:36:08.36\00:36:12.80
You know, God is
solid. That's right.
00:36:12.83\00:36:14.94
His foundation is solid.
00:36:14.97\00:36:16.91
He's got a firm foundation.
Everything has a meaning.
00:36:16.94\00:36:19.14
Everything fits on there
00:36:19.17\00:36:21.08
and then you say the mercy seat,
00:36:21.11\00:36:22.44
you know it
represents God's mercy.
00:36:22.48\00:36:24.68
It represents His
merits. That's right.
00:36:24.71\00:36:26.68
That He's
willing to pass on to us,
00:36:26.72\00:36:28.08
I'm thankful for that.
00:36:28.12\00:36:29.45
God's glory rested above what?
00:36:29.48\00:36:31.95
The mercy seat
signifying that is the throne.
00:36:31.99\00:36:35.36
See, that is His government.
And where does He sit?
00:36:35.39\00:36:37.99
Where does His
government sit on?
00:36:38.03\00:36:39.36
What you been talking about?
00:36:39.39\00:36:40.73
On the Ten
Commandment law. That's right.
00:36:40.76\00:36:42.10
Everything is
based upon that. Amen.
00:36:42.13\00:36:45.23
To me, the way that
I'm looking at this,
00:36:45.27\00:36:47.00
trying to get down, I
mean, I'm learning so much,
00:36:47.04\00:36:48.84
this is fantastic.
00:36:48.87\00:36:50.47
God has a plan,
He's always had a plan.
00:36:50.51\00:36:53.24
That's right. Amen.
00:36:53.27\00:36:55.24
And the ideal plan went askew,
00:36:55.28\00:36:59.58
but He still had a plan.
00:36:59.61\00:37:02.05
And then, there's and
it's progressive plan, okay?
00:37:02.08\00:37:06.52
And so, as we
look at the big plan,
00:37:06.55\00:37:09.12
starting with Genesis
going through Revelation,
00:37:09.16\00:37:11.89
we're seeing how He progresses.
00:37:11.93\00:37:14.30
And all the
different generations
00:37:14.33\00:37:16.13
has a place to play.
00:37:16.16\00:37:18.53
Yes, yes.
00:37:18.57\00:37:19.90
In order to work all this out,
so we had to go through this,
00:37:19.93\00:37:23.30
because otherwise
He's a God of confusion.
00:37:23.34\00:37:26.37
And He's not, so we
had to come back down here,
00:37:26.41\00:37:29.24
and the way that
I'm looking at this,
00:37:29.28\00:37:31.11
we just happened to be born
00:37:31.15\00:37:33.01
during part of this plan that...
00:37:33.05\00:37:36.95
You're getting
into it now, Brother.
00:37:36.99\00:37:39.15
And that we are part,
00:37:39.19\00:37:43.16
we just happened to be born,
can you be part of the remnant?
00:37:43.19\00:37:46.16
Yes, you can. Amen.
00:37:46.19\00:37:47.53
Come on. That's right.
00:37:47.56\00:37:48.90
And because it's
part of His plan.
00:37:48.93\00:37:50.80
Now how do we know if
we're part of His plan?
00:37:50.83\00:37:53.64
Well, there is the Holy
Spirit that's our best friend
00:37:53.67\00:37:56.81
that's sitting
there and that woos us
00:37:56.84\00:37:59.37
and directs us and
to be part of the plan.
00:37:59.41\00:38:03.55
That's right.
00:38:03.58\00:38:04.91
And so here we are
sitting at the table,
00:38:04.95\00:38:07.05
taking something that was,
00:38:07.08\00:38:09.05
that man broke
00:38:09.08\00:38:11.45
and is trying to
set here the best we can
00:38:11.49\00:38:13.72
in our little-bitty, tiny
space to contribute positively.
00:38:13.76\00:38:18.03
So, at the time in 1800,
00:38:18.06\00:38:21.06
they had what
they had to work with.
00:38:21.10\00:38:23.50
In 1700 and 1600,
but in the year 2000,
00:38:23.53\00:38:28.07
we've progressed and
we have the opportunity.
00:38:28.10\00:38:32.37
It's fantastic. We
all have the opportunity.
00:38:32.41\00:38:34.81
That knowledge
that is available to us.
00:38:34.84\00:38:37.31
I mentioned, you said, you know,
00:38:37.35\00:38:39.01
to be a part of this
plan, to be a part of this,
00:38:39.05\00:38:41.85
this sanctuary message.
00:38:41.88\00:38:43.55
I'd read before
we were on the hour,
00:38:43.59\00:38:45.15
this Baptist caller, John Gill.
00:38:45.19\00:38:48.92
John is an awesome
name in scripture, isn't it?
00:38:48.96\00:38:51.56
A lot of the people
that were restorers of this
00:38:51.59\00:38:53.93
were John, John, John, John,
00:38:53.96\00:38:55.83
but this is what he
read at me and what he wrote
00:38:55.86\00:38:58.90
from his
commentary on Daniel 8:14,
00:38:58.93\00:39:01.84
and this was prior to the,
00:39:01.87\00:39:04.74
this 18, the 2,300
days being fulfilled,
00:39:04.77\00:39:07.68
but listen to what he said
because a lot of people say,
00:39:07.71\00:39:10.85
oh that's an Adventist doctrine,
00:39:10.88\00:39:12.21
this is a Baptist.
00:39:12.25\00:39:13.62
This is a Baptist. That's right.
00:39:13.65\00:39:15.05
These 2,300 days
00:39:15.08\00:39:16.69
he was studying
the 2,300 day prophecy
00:39:16.72\00:39:18.82
out of scripture.
00:39:18.85\00:39:20.19
Says these 2,300
days may be considered
00:39:20.22\00:39:22.66
as so many years
00:39:22.69\00:39:24.33
which will bring it down
00:39:24.36\00:39:25.69
to the end of
the sixth millennium.
00:39:25.73\00:39:27.40
See, he was doing his math
00:39:27.43\00:39:29.16
better than most of us could do,
00:39:29.20\00:39:30.67
better than I
probably could have done
00:39:30.70\00:39:32.37
or thereabout
when it may be hoped.
00:39:32.40\00:39:35.60
See, he had an awareness
of what the devil had done.
00:39:35.64\00:39:38.44
When it may be hoped that
00:39:38.47\00:39:39.81
there will be a
new face of things
00:39:39.84\00:39:42.04
upon the sanctuary
and the church of God
00:39:42.08\00:39:45.45
and the cleansing of it
00:39:45.48\00:39:47.02
from all corruption in doctrine.
00:39:47.05\00:39:50.79
That's what the
devil did, he came in
00:39:50.82\00:39:52.29
and he corrupted
all God's doctrine
00:39:52.32\00:39:54.99
through the sanctuary.
00:39:55.02\00:39:56.36
Discipline,
worship and conversation,
00:39:56.39\00:39:58.83
restitution of all
things, that is so beautiful.
00:39:58.86\00:40:03.73
And there's just so
many gems out there,
00:40:03.77\00:40:06.03
it's just that most of the
time we don't go out studying.
00:40:06.07\00:40:09.37
There's another thing,
00:40:09.40\00:40:11.61
I wanted to point out in Ezekiel
00:40:11.64\00:40:13.21
that I thought
was very interesting.
00:40:13.24\00:40:16.44
Is this it?
00:40:16.48\00:40:18.51
Well, no I don't
think so. But go ahead.
00:40:18.55\00:40:21.92
I just want to
mention, you know,
00:40:21.95\00:40:23.28
because you brought
out something really good,
00:40:23.32\00:40:24.65
Brother JD, and
that's the fact that,
00:40:24.69\00:40:26.86
you know, you mentioned
we just happen to be here
00:40:26.89\00:40:29.12
during this time,
and I'm gonna clarify,
00:40:29.16\00:40:32.19
and I believe I knew
what you meant by that.
00:40:32.23\00:40:34.43
You know, God makes no mistakes.
00:40:34.46\00:40:36.83
And I believe that
each and every person
00:40:36.87\00:40:38.80
that is alive during this time,
00:40:38.83\00:40:40.84
we're not here by coincidence
or some random selection.
00:40:40.87\00:40:44.74
God has raised us up as
a people in these last days
00:40:44.77\00:40:48.14
to vindicate His
name and His character.
00:40:48.18\00:40:51.11
You ask what's the purpose
of Christians in the last days?
00:40:51.15\00:40:54.18
Let me read you a couple
of quotes here, fantastic.
00:40:54.22\00:40:56.89
This comes from
Councils of the Church,
00:40:56.92\00:40:59.22
page 240, listen to
these powerful words.
00:40:59.25\00:41:02.16
She says, "God
has a distinct people,
00:41:02.19\00:41:04.26
a church on
earth second to none."
00:41:04.29\00:41:07.63
"But superior to
all in their facilities
00:41:07.66\00:41:10.07
to teach the truth, notice,
00:41:10.10\00:41:11.93
to vindicate the law of God.
00:41:11.97\00:41:14.34
God has divinely
appointed agencies.
00:41:14.37\00:41:16.20
Men and women, he is leading
00:41:16.24\00:41:17.97
who have borne the heat
and the burden of the day.
00:41:18.01\00:41:20.14
Who are cooperating with
heavenly instrumentalities
00:41:20.18\00:41:22.98
to advance the kingdom
of Christ in our world."
00:41:23.01\00:41:26.51
And then she gives this council.
00:41:26.55\00:41:28.18
"Let all unite
with these chosen agents
00:41:28.22\00:41:30.75
and be found at last among
00:41:30.79\00:41:32.59
those who have the
patience of the saints,
00:41:32.62\00:41:34.92
who keep the commandments of God
00:41:34.96\00:41:36.32
and have the faith of Jesus."
00:41:36.36\00:41:37.69
That's the third angel's.
00:41:37.73\00:41:39.06
So notice the first
angel's message starts with it
00:41:39.09\00:41:41.40
and then God ends
the third angel's message
00:41:41.43\00:41:43.06
by saying, hey, you know what?
00:41:43.10\00:41:44.43
Here is the
patience of My people.
00:41:44.47\00:41:46.27
The saints of the Lord
00:41:46.30\00:41:47.64
who will keep the
commandments of God
00:41:47.67\00:41:49.34
and have the testimony.
00:41:49.37\00:41:50.71
And then and on page
345 of that same book,
00:41:50.74\00:41:52.67
Councils to the Church,
she ties it together here.
00:41:52.71\00:41:55.14
Notice here, "Just before us
00:41:55.18\00:41:56.85
is the closing struggle
of the great controversy
00:41:56.88\00:41:59.21
when, with 'all power
and signs and lying wonders,
00:41:59.25\00:42:02.28
and with all deceivableness
of unrighteousness,'
00:42:02.32\00:42:04.79
Satan is to
work to misrepresent,
00:42:04.82\00:42:06.99
notice, the character of
God, that he may 'seduce,
00:42:07.02\00:42:10.39
if it were
possible, even the elect.'"
00:42:10.43\00:42:12.63
And then she
says this, powerful,
00:42:12.66\00:42:14.73
"If there was ever a
people in need of constantly
00:42:14.76\00:42:17.43
increasing light from heaven,
00:42:17.47\00:42:18.97
it is the people
that, in this time of peril,
00:42:19.00\00:42:22.07
God has called to
be the depositaries
00:42:22.10\00:42:25.11
of His holy law and to
vindicate His character
00:42:25.14\00:42:28.38
before the world.
00:42:28.41\00:42:29.74
Those to whom has
been committed a trust
00:42:29.78\00:42:32.18
so sacred must be spiritualized,
00:42:32.21\00:42:34.65
elevated,
vitalized, by the truths
00:42:34.68\00:42:36.02
they profess to believe."
00:42:36.05\00:42:37.39
That is powerful.
It is so powerful.
00:42:37.42\00:42:38.85
That caps it all
together right there.
00:42:38.89\00:42:40.52
But, and the beautiful thing is,
00:42:40.56\00:42:41.89
it's not hitting
someone over the head.
00:42:41.92\00:42:44.69
Jesus said, "Love your neighbors
00:42:44.73\00:42:46.49
as yourself and love,
00:42:46.53\00:42:48.46
you know, God of heaven."
00:42:48.50\00:42:49.83
And He says, "On
these two hang on the law."
00:42:49.86\00:42:52.50
And so many
people say, "Oh, see God,
00:42:52.53\00:42:54.10
Jesus gave us a different law."
00:42:54.14\00:42:55.47
No.
00:42:55.50\00:42:56.84
He was just telling us that
it's all encapsulated by love.
00:42:56.87\00:43:00.68
And while ago, I pointed
out about the mercy seat,
00:43:00.71\00:43:02.98
about Christ coming down.
00:43:03.01\00:43:05.91
The God of heaven, our creator,
actually paying the penalty,
00:43:05.95\00:43:10.09
His own penalty for our sins.
00:43:10.12\00:43:13.66
And it was because
00:43:13.69\00:43:15.12
it was all encapsulated by love.
00:43:15.16\00:43:17.56
That's right. That's right.
00:43:17.59\00:43:18.93
And so when we present this law,
00:43:18.96\00:43:20.30
I think that's
where we've gone wrong
00:43:20.33\00:43:21.66
as a people many times
00:43:21.70\00:43:23.06
is that it's not
been done in love.
00:43:23.10\00:43:25.23
Yeah, there's, there's something
00:43:25.27\00:43:26.60
that came on my
mind, that's kind of,
00:43:26.63\00:43:27.97
not to get off subject
00:43:28.00\00:43:29.34
but when we think about
the sanctuary that Moses built,
00:43:29.37\00:43:31.01
what was it covered in?
00:43:31.04\00:43:33.17
Covered in badger
skins, right? Skins.
00:43:33.21\00:43:35.11
That's right.
00:43:35.14\00:43:36.48
What are we made of? Yeah.
00:43:36.51\00:43:37.85
Skin.
00:43:37.88\00:43:39.21
I'll just read
this in Jeremiah 31-34.
00:43:39.25\00:43:42.52
It says, "Behold the
days come, says the Lord,
00:43:42.55\00:43:44.02
I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel
00:43:44.05\00:43:45.65
and with the house of Judah,
00:43:45.69\00:43:47.02
not according to the covenant
that I made with their fathers,
00:43:47.06\00:43:49.39
and the day that I
took them by the hand
00:43:49.42\00:43:50.96
to bring them out
of the land of Egypt
00:43:50.99\00:43:52.46
which my covenant they break,
00:43:52.49\00:43:54.16
although I was a
husband unto them, saith Lord."
00:43:54.20\00:43:55.90
Here it is, verse 33,
"But this shall be the covenant
00:43:55.93\00:43:58.03
that I will make
with the house of Israel.
00:43:58.07\00:43:59.73
After those days saith the Lord,
00:43:59.77\00:44:01.10
I will put My law
in their inward parts,
00:44:01.14\00:44:03.84
and write it in their hearts
and they will be their God,
00:44:03.87\00:44:06.17
I will be their God and
they shall be My people."
00:44:06.21\00:44:08.01
So that skin,
00:44:08.04\00:44:09.91
that's over the sanctuary,
actually we have skin.
00:44:09.94\00:44:12.58
I never thought of it that way.
00:44:12.61\00:44:14.02
And you think
about it, it's in here.
00:44:14.05\00:44:17.05
The law is now in here,
it's in our inward parts.
00:44:17.09\00:44:19.75
Let's go quick, we've
got three minutes or so left
00:44:19.79\00:44:21.96
and I felt
something is very important
00:44:21.99\00:44:24.03
and I thought in
the Most Holy Place
00:44:24.06\00:44:25.69
there has to be an experience.
00:44:25.73\00:44:27.36
We need to
experience the Most Holy Place.
00:44:27.40\00:44:28.76
I'm going to give a
couple of just valiant,
00:44:28.80\00:44:30.47
a do, just read them.
00:44:30.50\00:44:31.83
Says, "We must
follow Christ by faith
00:44:31.87\00:44:33.84
in the work of atonement,
to receive its benefits."
00:44:33.87\00:44:36.74
We talked about
that to begin with.
00:44:36.77\00:44:38.54
Jesus entered into
the Most Holy Place
00:44:38.57\00:44:41.44
foreshadowed in type
in the earthly sanctuary,
00:44:41.48\00:44:44.31
so we say earthly sanctuary.
00:44:44.35\00:44:47.02
We know exactly
where Christ is at
00:44:47.05\00:44:48.38
and what He's doing.
00:44:48.42\00:44:49.75
He went into the Most Holy Place
00:44:49.78\00:44:51.12
to cleanse it of what?
00:44:51.15\00:44:52.49
You mentioned in
the beginning. Of sin.
00:44:52.52\00:44:54.19
That's His last stop
for work for mankind,
00:44:54.22\00:44:57.26
when you keep that in our mind.
00:44:57.29\00:44:58.69
Christ ministers
in behalf of sinners.
00:44:58.73\00:45:00.93
He's there because I'm a sinner
and I'm in need of a savior.
00:45:00.96\00:45:05.07
I need His grace and He
said, "I'm there for you,
00:45:05.10\00:45:07.57
I'm gonna be pleading your case.
00:45:07.60\00:45:09.50
He pleads his
case with His blood.
00:45:09.54\00:45:11.31
Praise God for that.
00:45:11.34\00:45:13.14
Before the Father
00:45:13.17\00:45:14.51
and before the
Ark of the Covenant.
00:45:14.54\00:45:16.28
Why?
00:45:16.31\00:45:17.65
Because we've
broken the law of God.
00:45:17.68\00:45:19.08
Jesus, heavenly sanctuary
still pleading His blood
00:45:19.11\00:45:22.68
because of broken law.
00:45:22.72\00:45:24.35
And, of course, we find
the judgment in Daniel 7,
00:45:24.39\00:45:26.79
you know, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14.
00:45:26.82\00:45:29.12
Daniel 8:14
00:45:29.16\00:45:30.66
and then onward
there in Daniel 9
00:45:30.69\00:45:32.49
comes the 2,300 day prophecy.
00:45:32.53\00:45:34.46
So the judgment hour, 1844.
00:45:34.50\00:45:36.43
You mentioned the first
angel's message was given
00:45:36.46\00:45:38.67
and then Christ
into the Most Holy Place.
00:45:38.70\00:45:40.30
What is He doing?
00:45:40.34\00:45:41.67
Forgiveness of sin,
talking about character work
00:45:41.70\00:45:43.57
and the blotting out
forever of sin because what?
00:45:43.61\00:45:47.94
Sins are
symbolically stored until what,
00:45:47.98\00:45:50.28
comes to the time of
the end, the judgment,
00:45:50.31\00:45:51.78
our name comes up and
then the blotting out.
00:45:51.81\00:45:53.45
I'm looking
forward to that. Amen.
00:45:53.48\00:45:55.38
Special truth that comes
out of this sanctuary study
00:45:55.42\00:45:58.09
certainly is light on
the seventh day Sabbath
00:45:58.12\00:46:01.16
is what we were
trying to bring in here
00:46:01.19\00:46:03.12
that's going to be restored,
00:46:03.16\00:46:04.76
all Ten
Commandments of God's law.
00:46:04.79\00:46:07.00
And we realize the
big Sabbath question,
00:46:07.03\00:46:10.07
the test is not till what?
00:46:10.10\00:46:11.57
After 1844.
00:46:11.60\00:46:13.87
So the big test is there
because God's raised the people
00:46:13.90\00:46:16.10
who understand this message
00:46:16.14\00:46:17.47
and we want to give this message
00:46:17.51\00:46:18.84
and bring it to the
world before Jesus comes.
00:46:18.87\00:46:21.34
Got one minute left,
00:46:21.38\00:46:22.71
somebody got a
quick thought or two.
00:46:22.74\00:46:24.08
Well, it's just part
of His original plan,
00:46:24.11\00:46:25.75
you know this is
part of it, you know.
00:46:25.78\00:46:28.35
So you can't just sit here.
00:46:28.38\00:46:29.72
If the puzzle has 10
parts, you can't just sit here
00:46:29.75\00:46:33.12
and have a finished
puzzle with 9 parts.
00:46:33.15\00:46:35.72
I think you know
00:46:35.76\00:46:37.09
when Christ finishes
His work in the Most Holy,
00:46:37.13\00:46:39.33
He stands up and
He says, "It is done."
00:46:39.36\00:46:42.30
And I think it's for up to
us which side we're gonna be on,
00:46:42.33\00:46:45.93
because once it is
done, probation has closed.
00:46:45.97\00:46:49.04
You know, let those
who are righteous be
00:46:49.07\00:46:50.47
righteous still.
00:46:50.51\00:46:51.84
Those who are
filthy be filthy still.
00:46:51.87\00:46:54.01
God will never
force anyone to love Him.
00:46:54.04\00:46:57.41
But He's calling
each and every one of you
00:46:57.45\00:46:59.41
to love Him.
00:46:59.45\00:47:00.78
And it's your choice
which side you will be on.
00:47:00.82\00:47:03.18
Third angel's message
is going to do its work.
00:47:03.22\00:47:05.72
That's right. Right?
00:47:05.75\00:47:07.09
And we're gonna be tested on it.
00:47:07.12\00:47:08.46
We wanna be found
faithful, I know that you do
00:47:08.49\00:47:10.46
and that's why we're
studying this Word of God.
00:47:10.49\00:47:11.99
We pray this
had been a blessing.
00:47:12.03\00:47:14.03
I just wanna thank
each and every one of you.
00:47:14.06\00:47:15.86
we only have 15 seconds left,
00:47:15.90\00:47:17.30
