UNGODLINESS AND WORLDLY
LUSTS, WE SHOULD LIVE SOBERLY,
00:10:12.84\00:10:18.85

GODLY IN THE AGE.

LOOKING FOR THE BLESSED HOPE AND
GLORIOUS APPEARING OF OU GREAT
00:10:22.25\00:10:26.55
GOD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST
WHO GAVE HIMSELF FOR US THAT HE
00:10:26.55\00:10:31.23
MIGHT REDEEM US FROM EVERY
LAWLESS DEED AND PURIFY FOR
00:10:31.23\00:10:37.33
HIMSELF HIS OWN SPECIAL
PEOPLE, JEALOUS FOR GOOD WORKS.

>> AMEN. THE
BLESSED HOPE AND GLORIOUS
00:10:41.60\00:10:46.41
APPEARING OF CHRIST JESUS.
LET'S TALK ABOUT -- YOU KNOW, TO
00:10:46.41\00:10:51.01
ME SOMETIMES PEOPLE SEEM TO
THINK OF THE BLESSED HOPE AS
00:10:51.01\00:10:54.68
SIMPLY THE RETURN OF CHRIST, OR
BEING REUNITED WITH A LOVED ONE.
00:10:54.68\00:11:01.22
BUT LET'S TALK
ABOUT THAT BLESSED HOPE.
00:11:01.22\00:11:04.13
I MEAN, WE HAVE
GOT IT RIGHT NOW.
00:11:04.13\00:11:07.03
YOU MADE A COMMENT TO ME THIS
WEEK, THE BLESSED HOPE HAS BEEN
00:11:07.03\00:11:10.73
AROUND SINCE THE
GARDEN OF EDEN, HASN'T IT?
00:11:10.73\00:11:14.77
AMEN. AMEN.
00:11:14.77\00:11:16.27
SO -- LET'S TALK
ABOUT THE RETURN OF CHRIST.
00:11:16.27\00:11:18.71
WHO WANTS TO HIT THAT?
>> THE RETURN OF CHRIST.
00:11:18.71\00:11:23.71
>> GO AHEAD, RYAN. >>
I'LL JUST JUMP IN THERE,
00:11:23.71\00:11:29.32
ABSOLUTELY. >> 1 THESSALONIANS.
00:11:29.32\00:11:31.69
>> ABSOLUTELY. 1
THESSALONIANS, 4:4, AND THIS
00:11:31.69\00:11:37.49
IS ONE OF HOSE FAMOUS
TEXTS -- PROBABLY -- WE OFTEN
00:11:37.49\00:11:42.23
CALL THIS THE
LOUDEST TEXTS IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:42.23\00:11:45.73
IT'S CERTAINLY ONE OF THOSE
TEXTS WHEN YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT
00:11:45.73\00:11:49.74
THE RETURN OF JESUS TO
LEAVE THIS TEXT OUT WOULD BE
00:11:49.74\00:11:55.58
BLASPHEMY. SO 1
THESSALONIANS, 4:13, AND I
00:11:55.58\00:12:00.88
LOVE HOW PAUL BEGINS, HE
SAYS BUT I DO NOT WAN YOU TO BE
00:12:00.88\00:12:07.39
IGNORANT BRETHREN CONCERNING
THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP,
00:12:07.39\00:12:14.60
LEST YOU SORROW AS
THOSE WHO HAVE NO HOPE.
00:12:14.60\00:12:17.90
PAUL IS TYING THAT HOPE CONCEPT
IN WITH THIS SUBJECT OF THE
00:12:17.90\00:12:22.14
RETURN OF JESUS. AND
VERSE 14, FOR MANY WE
00:12:22.14\00:12:25.24
BELIEVE THAT JESUS DIED AND ROSE
AGAIN, EVEN SO, GOD WILL BRING
00:12:25.24\00:12:29.64
WITH HIM THOSE
WHO SLEEP IN JESUS.
00:12:29.64\00:12:32.48
AND I WANT TO PAUSE THERE JUST
TO INSERT -- I HAVE HAD PEOPLE
00:12:32.48\00:12:36.75
SAY THAT SHOWS WHEN JESUS COMES
BACK FROM HEAVEN HE IS BRINGING
00:12:36.75\00:12:41.19
PEOPLE WITH HIM FROM HEAVEN.
BUT THIS IS NOT TALKING ABOUT
00:12:41.19\00:12:44.33
JESUS COMING BACK FROM HEAVEN
WITH PEOPLE ACTUALLY THIS IS
00:12:44.33\00:12:51.67
REFERRING TO THOSE WHO
ARE ASLEEP IN THE GRAVE.
00:12:51.67\00:12:56.34
HE IS ASSURING PEOPLE THAT HE
IS GOING TO BRING THEM WITH HIM
00:12:56.34\00:13:01.54
ALONG WITH THOSE WHO ARE ALIVE.
HE GOES ON THE SAY IN VERSE 15,
00:13:01.54\00:13:06.85
FOR THIS WE SAY TO YOU BY THE
WORD OF THE LORD, THAT WE WHO
00:13:06.85\00:13:10.92
ARE ARRIVE AND REMAIN UNTIL THE
COMING OF THE LORD WILL BY NO
00:13:10.92\00:13:15.46
MEANS PRECEDE
THOSE WHO ARE ASLEEP.
00:13:15.46\00:13:19.16
SO WE ALL GET TO
MAKE IT HEAVEN TOGETHER.
00:13:19.16\00:13:21.63
>> AND THAT SHOWS THAT
NO ONE IS ALREADY IN HEAVEN.
00:13:21.63\00:13:24.70
>> ABSOLUTELY. AND
VERSES 16-18, THE LORD
00:13:24.70\00:13:29.80
HIMSELF WILL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN
WITH THE SHOUT WITH THE VOICE OF
00:13:29.80\00:13:34.08
THE ARCHANGEL, WITH THE TRUMPET
OF GOD, AND THE DEAD IN CHRIS
00:13:34.08\00:13:41.22
WILL RISE FIRST, THEN WE WHO ARE
ALIVE REMAIN SHALL BE CAUGHT UP
00:13:41.22\00:13:48.82
WITH THEM AND THUS SHALL WE ALSO
BE WITH THE LORD, AND I HAVE TO
00:13:48.82\00:13:53.50
ADD VERSE 18 IN THERE. I
LOVE HOW PAUL ENDS THIS TEXT.
00:13:53.50\00:13:59.10
HE SAYS, THEREFORE, HERE IT IS,
COMFORT ONE ANOTHER WITH THESE
00:13:59.10\00:14:03.20
WORDS. >> AMEN.
00:14:03.20\00:14:04.07
>> HOPE IN THIS MESSAGE THAT
WE HAVE CERTAINLY -- THAT'S WHAT
00:14:04.07\00:14:07.48
WE'RE HERE TO DISCUSS. >>
YOU KNOW WHAT I LOVE ABOUT
00:14:07.48\00:14:10.15
THIS PASSAGE, IS
BASICALLY -- YOU SEE THERE'S NO
00:14:10.15\00:14:14.95
RAPTURE BECAUSE PEOPLE
ARE ASLEEP IN THE GRAVE.
00:14:14.95\00:14:18.19
JOHN 5:28, JESUS SAID THAT
ALL WHO ARE IN THEIR GRAVES WILL
00:14:18.19\00:14:23.89
HEAR HIS VOICE, AND SOME WILL
COME OUT TO THE RESURRECTION OF
00:14:23.89\00:14:29.73
THE RIGHTEOUSNESS,
OTHERS TO THE CONDEMNATION.
00:14:29.73\00:14:34.87
LET'S GO TO REVELATION 20, AND
LET'S LOOK AT VERSES 5 AND 6.
00:14:34.87\00:14:45.31
BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE
DON'T REALIZE THERE ARE TWO
00:14:45.31\00:14:52.22
RESURRECTIONS. THERE
IS THE RESURRECTION OF THE
00:14:52.22\00:14:55.56
RIGHT HOUSE AND THE
RESURRECTION OF THE CONDEMNED.
00:14:55.56\00:14:59.93
AND THESE ARE
SEPARATED BY A THOUSAND YEARS.
00:14:59.93\00:15:03.13
>> THERE BUT THE REST OF THE
DEAD LIVE NOT AGAIN UNTIL THE
00:15:03.13\00:15:06.94
THOUSAND YEARS WERE FINISHED.
THIS IS THE FIRST RESURRECTION.
00:15:06.94\00:15:11.17
VERSUS 6, BLESSED AND HOLY IS
HE THAT HAVE PART IN THE FIRST
00:15:11.17\00:15:16.75
RESURRECTION ON SUCH THE SECOND
DEATH HATH NO POWER, BUT THEY
00:15:16.75\00:15:23.02
SHALL BE PRIESTS OF GOD AND
CHRIST AND SHALL RAIN WITH HIM A
00:15:23.02\00:15:28.89
THOUSAND YEARS. >>
DAKOTA WOULD YOU BREAK THAT
00:15:28.89\00:15:32.43
DOWN FOR US. IT'S A
PARENTHETICAL STATEMENT
00:15:32.43\00:15:36.13
WHEN HE SAYS THE REST OF THE
DEAD DID NOT LIVE AGAIN UNTIL
00:15:36.13\00:15:39.87
THE THOUSAND YEARS.
LET'S TALK ABOUT FIRST
00:15:39.87\00:15:44.14
RESURRECTION AND
SECOND RESURRECTION.
00:15:44.14\00:15:46.11
>> SURE. YOU
QUOTED THE VERSE EARLIER
00:15:46.11\00:15:49.78
WHEN JESUS SAID
HIMSELF MARVEL NOT AT THIS.
00:15:49.78\00:15:53.25
IN OTHER WORDS THIS
SHOULDN'T SURPRISE US.
00:15:53.25\00:15:56.52
HE SAYS FOR THE HOUR IS
COMING -- THAT MEANS IT HASN'T
00:15:56.52\00:16:01.69
COME YET, IN WHICH ALL THAT
ARE IN THE GRAVE SHALL HERE HIS
00:16:01.69\00:16:05.93
VOICE. SO THEY
HAVEN'T YET HEARD HIS
00:16:05.93\00:16:08.43
VOICE. AND VERSE
29 SAYS THEY SHALL
00:16:08.43\00:16:12.93
COME FORTH AND THEY WHO HAVE
DONE GOOD AND THEY WHO HAVE DONE
00:16:12.93\00:16:17.87
EVIL. SO THESE
VERSES ARE MAKING IT
00:16:17.87\00:16:20.41
VERY CLEAR THERE ARE
IS TWO RESURRECTIONS.
00:16:20.41\00:16:25.18
THE FIRST IS WHEN JESUS CHRIST
COMES BACK IN THE CLOUDS OF
00:16:25.18\00:16:29.02
HEAVEN WHAT WE JUST READ WHEN IT
SAYS FOR THE LORD SHALL ASCEND
00:16:29.02\00:16:35.22
FROM HEAVEN WITH A
SHOUT -- >> NO SECRET COMING.
00:16:35.22\00:16:38.79
>> EXACTLY. SOME
PEOPLE'S IDEA OF A BLESSED
00:16:38.79\00:16:41.63
HOPE IS A SECRET SILENT COMING,
BUT THE WORD OF GOD IS SO CLEAR
00:16:41.63\00:16:45.63
THAT WE HAVE A -- A SHOUT WHEN
JESUS CHRIST COMES BACK, AND HE
00:16:45.63\00:16:51.21
SAYS HE IS COMING
BACK WITH THE TRUMP OF GOD.
00:16:51.21\00:16:54.58
AND IF JESUS CHRIST IS COMING
BACK WITH THE TRUMP OF GOD, IT'S
00:16:54.58\00:17:01.08
A MAN MADE TRUMPET,
IMAGINE HOW LOUD THAT IS.
00:17:01.08\00:17:12.29
IMAGINE HOW LOUD THE
TRUMP OF GOD WILL BE.
00:17:12.29\00:17:16.50
AND WE WILL MEET HIM IN THE END.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT SCRIPTURE I
00:17:16.50\00:17:20.94
JUST THOUGHT OF IS DANIEL
12:2, BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS FIND
00:17:20.94\00:17:27.44
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE OLD
TESTAMENT AND THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:17:27.44\00:17:31.35
DANIEL 12:2 IS SAYING
BASICALLY THE SAME THING.
00:17:31.35\00:17:34.98
MANY OF THOE WHO SLEEP IN THE
DUST OF THE EARTH SHALL AWAKE.
00:17:34.98\00:17:39.25
SOME TO EVER-LASTING LIFE,
SOME TO SHAME AND EVER-LASTING
00:17:39.25\00:17:46.16
CONTENT. >> AMEN.
00:17:46.16\00:17:46.83
>> BUT TO FURTHER THE IDEA THAT
WHEN WE COME UP OUT OF THE GRAVE
00:17:46.83\00:17:51.97
IN THAT FIRST RESURRECTION,
TO FURTHER THE IDEA THAT WE ARE
00:17:51.97\00:17:56.94
SLEEPING IN THE GRAVE UNTIL
CHRIST COMES -- LET'S LOOK AT 1
00:17:56.94\00:18:03.48
CORINTHIANS 15, HOW ABOUT THAT?
BECAUSE TO ME THIS IS -- WHEN
00:18:03.48\00:18:07.05
YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THE
BLESSED HOPE -- WHY IS IT THAT
00:18:07.05\00:18:12.49
I'M LOOKING -- TALKING AND
LOOKING AT THE SAME TIME, I
00:18:12.49\00:18:15.92
CAN'T FIND IT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:18:15.92\00:18:17.53
>> I CAN CERTAINLY
READ THAT -- >> PLEASE.
00:18:17.53\00:18:19.96
>> EVERYBODY GOT IT. >>
START WITH VERSE 51 THROUGH
00:18:19.96\00:18:24.33
55. >> OKAY.
00:18:24.33\00:18:25.47
BEHOLD, I'LL TELL YOU A MYSTERY.
SHE SHALL NOT ALL SLEEP, BUT WE
00:18:25.47\00:18:30.94
SHALL ALL BE CHANGED IN A MOMENT
AND A TWINKLING OF AN EYE AND AT
00:18:30.94\00:18:36.31
THE LAST TRUMPET, FOR THE
TRUMPET WILL SOUND AND THE DEAD
00:18:36.31\00:18:39.68
WILL BE RAISED INCORRUPTEDABLE,
AND WE SHALL BE CHANGED.
00:18:39.68\00:18:44.92
FOR THIS CORRUPTIBLE MUST PUT ON
INCORRUPTION AND THIS MORTAL HAS
00:18:44.92\00:18:59.00
PUT ON IMMORTALITY.
THEN DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN
00:18:59.00\00:19:06.27
VICTORY. OH,
HADES, WHERE IS YOUR
00:19:06.27\00:19:15.18
VICTORY? >> THE
BIBLE TOLD US THAT ONLY
00:19:15.18\00:19:17.82
GOD IS IMMORTAL.
SO WHEN DO WE PUT ON
00:19:17.82\00:19:23.09
IMMORTALITY. >> WHAT
THE BIBLE JUST TELLS US
00:19:23.09\00:19:25.39
THAT CORRUPTIBLE PUTS ON
INCORRUPTION AND THIS MORE TALL
00:19:25.39\00:19:29.80
PUTS ON IMMORTALITY.
VERSE 52 SAYS IN THE MOMENT OF A
00:19:29.80\00:19:35.97
TWINKLING OF AN EYE AT THE LAST
TRUMP, AND THAT'S WHEN CHRIST IS
00:19:35.97\00:19:42.11
REVEALED. >> THIS
IS THAT LOUD TRUMPET.
00:19:42.11\00:19:44.55
BUT PART OF THE BLESSED
HOPE -- LET ME ASK YOU THIS.
00:19:44.55\00:19:49.45
IF YOU ARE IN A WHEELCHAIR.
IF YOU HAVE -- I HAVE A FRIEND
00:19:49.45\00:19:54.66
WHO HAS SPINAL -- SPINA BIFIDA,
AND SHE IS SO TWISTED AND SHE
00:19:54.66\00:20:00.73
CAN HARDLY LIFT HER
HEAD. SHE CAN'T REACH ANYTHING.
00:20:00.73\00:20:04.03
AND THE BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT
THE BLESSED HOPE, IT'S NOT JUST
-THE RETURN OF CHRIST, BUT WHAT
00:20:04.03\00:20:10.24
IS GOING TO
HAPPEN WHEN HE RETURNS.
00:20:10.24\00:20:12.47
I MEAN, IT'S EXCITING TO
THING ABOUT HIM RETURNING.
00:20:12.47\00:20:15.38
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
YES, BECAUSE THIS IS THE ONE
00:20:15.38\00:20:18.65
WHO HAS BEEN PROMISED THE
LAMB HAS BEEN SLAIN FROM THE
00:20:18.65\00:20:23.25
FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH.-BUT
WHEN HE COMES BACK, WHEN HE PUT
ON IMMORTALITY, ALL OF THESE
00:20:23.25\00:20:30.43
DISEASES, ALL OF
THIS CORRUPTION IS GONE.
00:20:30.43\00:20:33.16
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> UH-HUH.
00:20:33.16\00:20:35.03
>> AND HERE WE ARE -- I
THINK -- YOU KNOW, IN PSALMS
00:20:35.03\00:20:43.34
17:15 WHEN HE SAID AS FOR ME, I
SHALL BE SATISFIED WHEN I AWAKE
00:20:43.34\00:20:51.35
IN YOUR LIKENESS. >> AMEN.
00:20:51.35\00:20:53.48
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
WE'RE GOING TO BE CHANGED IN
00:20:53.48\00:20:56.38
THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE. >> YES.
00:20:56.38\00:20:59.22
>> I THINK IT'S A LITTLE
BIT IMPORTANT TO AK SEARCH WAIT
00:20:59.22\00:21:03.19
THAT, THE CHANGE IN THE
TWINKLE OF AN EYE IS THE BODY.
00:21:03.19\00:21:06.56
IT'S NOT THE
CHARACTER. >> UH-HUH.
00:21:06.56\00:21:08.53
>> IT'S TRUE. >> AMEN.
00:21:08.53\00:21:10.83
>> THAT'S AN EXCELLENT
POINT. BUT WHAT DOES JOHN SAY?
00:21:10.83\00:21:15.54
NOW WE ARE THE
CHILDREN OF GOD. NOW WE ARE.
00:21:15.54\00:21:18.27
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> I
LOVE THAT BEAUTIFUL PROMISE
00:21:18.27\00:21:22.44
IN 3:20, WHEN PAUL WRITES, FOR
OUR CONVERSATION IS IN HEAVEN
00:21:22.44\00:21:31.25
FROM WHEN WE LOOK FOR THE
SAVIOR, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
00:21:31.25\00:21:36.89
WHO SHALL CHANGE YOUR VIAL BODY
THAT IT SHALL BE FASHIONED LIKE
00:21:36.89\00:21:41.13
HIS GLORY BODY WHERE HE IS ABLE
EVEN TO SUBDUE ALL THINGS UNTO
00:21:41.13\00:21:46.57
HIMSELF. I ALSO THINK OF
00:21:46.57\00:21:48.27
THAT -- THAT -- THAT SCRIPTURE,
AND I FORGET THE PARTICULAR
00:21:48.27\00:21:51.14
REFERENCE AT THE MOMENT, BUT
EYES HAVE NOT SEEN, EARS FROM
00:21:51.14\00:21:56.64
NOT HEARD, WHAT GOD
HAS PREPARED FOR US.
00:21:56.64\00:21:59.28
THAT BLESSED HOPE.
IT'S LIKE A PACKAGE DEAL.
00:21:59.28\00:22:02.82
>> AMEN. >> IT'S
THIS INCREDIBLE PACKAGE
00:22:02.82\00:22:06.25
DEAL THAT WE HAVE
TO LOOK FORWARD TO.
00:22:06.25\00:22:10.16
WHERE WOULD WE BE
WITHOUT GOD'S WORD.
00:22:10.16\00:22:12.83
>> AND YOU KNOW
-- GO AHEAD, HONEY.
00:22:12.83\00:22:15.46
>> TODAY WE HAD A
BLESSED LADY THAT CALLED IN.
00:22:15.46\00:22:19.10
AND SHE IS SUFFERING FROM HEAD
TO TOE, AND SHE WAS BECOMING SO
00:22:19.10\00:22:24.54
DISCOURAGED TO THE POINT
THAT SHE TALKED TO PASTOR CLAUDE
00:22:24.54\00:22:28.71
WHICH IS JUST ABSOLUTE -- ONE
OF OUR PRECIOUS PRAYER WARRIORS.
00:22:28.71\00:22:33.82
WILL YOU JUST PRAY FOR ME TODAY
THAT WILL GET ME INTO TOMORROW.
00:22:33.82\00:22:38.79
AND PASTOR CLAUDE SAID, OH, YES,
AND IT IS GOING TO BE BETTER
00:22:38.79\00:22:42.42
THAN THAT. WE'RE
GOING TO BE PRAYING TODAY
00:22:42.42\00:22:45.09
AND TOMORROW. BUT
WHAT WE'RE PRAYING FOR IS
00:22:45.09\00:22:47.60
THAT BLESSED HOPE. >> AMEN.
00:22:47.60\00:22:49.86
>> AND BLESS HER HEART -- TO ME
AS I WAS LISTENING TO THIS, MY
00:22:49.86\00:22:54.84
HEART MELTED. BECAUSE
THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE
00:22:54.84\00:22:58.31
OUT THERE THAT HAVE
SERIOUS, SERIOUS ISSUES.
00:22:58.31\00:23:01.98
THERE ARE SOME THAT JUST ARE
READY TO -- THEY ARE TIRING OF
00:23:01.98\00:23:04.88
THIS WORLD. AND
THEN THERE'S OTHERS THAT
00:23:04.88\00:23:07.95
THEY HAVE GO MAJOR ISSUES.
AND THAT'S THE BLESSED HOPE.
00:23:07.95\00:23:11.25
THAT'S THE ENCOURAGEMENT
THAT GOES WITH THE SCRIPTURE.
00:23:11.25\00:23:15.36
IT'S AN INSPIRING SCRIPTURE
THAT WE'RE SITTING HERE READING.
00:23:15.36\00:23:19.29
>> HOW MANY -- I
SHOULDN'T SAY THIS.
00:23:19.29\00:23:22.96
PROBABLY ALL OF US, WE HAVE LOST
SOMEONE THAT WE LOVED VERY MUCH.
00:23:22.96\00:23:26.84
>> YES. >> YOUR
PRECIOUS MOTHER WAS 53
00:23:26.84\00:23:30.54
YEARS OLD. AND JUST
-- IT HAD ONLY BEEN A
00:23:30.54\00:23:34.08
FEW WEEKS. WHEN DID SHE PASS?
00:23:34.08\00:23:36.48
>> ACTUALLY IT WAS A MONTH
AGO. I THINK IT WAS A MONTH AGO,
00:23:36.48\00:23:41.38
JUST -- JUST A FEW DAYS
AGO -- THREE OR FOUR DAYS AGO.
00:23:41.38\00:23:45.25
>> SO PART OF THE BLESSED HOPE
IS KNOWING THAT YOU ARE GOING TO
00:23:45.25\00:23:49.76
BE REUNITED. >> UH-HUH.
00:23:49.76\00:23:52.43
>> AMEN. >> ISN'T IT?
00:23:52.43\00:23:54.36
>> AMEN. >>
KNOWING WHEN YOU COME
00:23:54.36\00:23:57.00
UP -- IF YOU ARE ALIVE AND
REMAIN, YOU KNOW, THERE ARE SOME
00:23:57.00\00:24:01.47
WHEN JESUS RETURNS WHO AREN'T
GOING TO DIE -- I MEAN THEY
00:24:01.47\00:24:05.31
WON'T BE DEAD, AND THEY WILL BE
TRANSLATED, BUT THEN THERE ARE
00:24:05.31\00:24:10.61
THOSE WHERE NOT ANYONE IS GOING
TO PROCEED INTO THE PRESENCE OF
00:24:10.61\00:24:15.22
THE LORD BEFORE THE OTHER.
SO THE DEAD COME OUT -- AND I
00:24:15.22\00:24:19.49
JUST THINK HOW PRECIOUS THAT IS
TO KNOW THAT -- YOU KNOW, THIS
00:24:19.49\00:24:23.49
IS HOW THIS TOPIC
EVEN CAME A FEW WEEKS AGO.
00:24:23.49\00:24:26.53
WE WERE TALKING, AND I SAID
HOW DOES ANYONE WHO HAS LOSTED A
00:24:26.53\00:24:34.40
LOVED ONE, OR HAS A CHILD IN
A CANCER WARD OR IN THE ICU --
00:24:34.40\00:24:41.28
>> UH-HUH. >> --
HOW DO THEY HANDLE THIS
00:24:41.28\00:24:44.38
WITHOUT THE
BLESSED HOPE? >> I KNOW.
00:24:44.38\00:24:46.48
>> BECAUSE YOU KNOW --
YOUR MOTHER WAS A CHRISTIAN.
00:24:46.48\00:24:50.29
YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS A
TEMPORARY SEPARATION, AND IF
YOU-GUYS STAY ON TRACK, AND I'M
00:24:50.29\00:24:57.43
GOING TO MAKE SURE
YOU DO -- [ LAUGHTER ]
00:24:57.43\00:24:59.73
>> BUT I MEAN, YOU KNOW THAT YOU
HAVE ETERNITY TO SPEND WITH HER.
00:24:59.73\00:25:04.97
>> I THINK THE CORE ISSUE
HERE, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS
00:25:04.97\00:25:11.04
SUBJECT, AND I HAVE
SHARED THIS WITH YOU GUYS.
00:25:11.04\00:25:14.68
AND DAKOTA KNOWS THIS, THE
LAST MONTH HAS JUST BEEN HARD.
00:25:14.68\00:25:19.75
AND I KNOW MANY OF US -- A LOT
OF PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD HAVE
00:25:19.75\00:25:24.45
LOST CLOSE LOVED ONES, BUT JUST
WHAT YOU SAID, HOW DO YOU -- MY
00:25:24.45\00:25:30.09
HEART BREAKS FOR THOSE
WHO DON'T HAVE THAT HOPE.
00:25:30.09\00:25:32.56
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> --
WHO DON'T BELIEVE IN THESE
00:25:32.56\00:25:36.20
PROMISES, AND NOW MORE THAN EVER
WE NEED TO CONSIDER THE PROMISES
00:25:36.20\00:25:39.80
OF GOD'S WORD,
BECAUSE THAT'S ALL WE HAVE.
00:25:39.80\00:25:42.47
I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET
THROUGH THESE LAST FEW WEEKS IF
00:25:42.47\00:25:47.21
I DIDN'T HAVE THESE PROMISES.
YOU KNOW, JOHN 11:25 AND 26, AND
00:25:47.21\00:25:54.75
THESE WORDS JUST RING IN
MY EARS, JESUS SAYS I AM THE
00:25:54.75\00:25:59.89
RESURRECTION IN LIFE. HE
WHO BELIEVES IN ME, THOUGH HE
00:25:59.89\00:26:03.56
MAY DIE, HE SHALL LIVE, AND
WHOSOEVER LIVES AND BELIEVES IN
00:26:03.56\00:26:08.00
ME SHALL NEVER DIE, AND THEN
HE ASKS THIS QUESTION, DO YOU
00:26:08.00\00:26:11.93
BELIEVE IN THIS? DO
YOU BELIEVE THIS, HE SAYS?
00:26:11.93\00:26:18.24
AND THERE IS ANOTHER TEXT I HAVE
TO SHARE REAL QUICKLY, OR I'LL
00:26:18.24\00:26:23.14
FORGET IT. IT'S IN
1 PETER 3: -- 1 PETER
00:26:23.14\00:26:33.66
1:3-6, EXCUSE ME. AND
NOTICE WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS
00:26:33.66\00:26:38.46
ON THIS BLESSED HOPE TOPIC.
REALLY, I JUST WANT TO SAY
00:26:38.46\00:26:42.10
BEFOREHAND, THE BLESSED HOPE
WE HAVE BEFORE HAPPENED IN THE
00:26:42.10\00:26:44.63
PROMISE OF THE EVENTS AND THE
THINGS WE CAN LOOK FORWARD TO,
00:26:44.63\00:26:48.30
BUT ULTIMATELY, THE CORE OF THE
BLESSED HOPE IS THE PROMISE THAT
00:26:48.30\00:26:52.21
WE HAVE IN THE WORK THT
CHRIST HAS ALREADY COMPLETED.
00:26:52.21\00:26:56.08
>> AMEN. >> AND
THIS IS WHAT THIS
00:26:56.08\00:26:59.68
PARTICULAR TEXT TESTIFIES TO.
1 PETER 1:3-6, BLESSED BE THE
00:26:59.68\00:27:05.42
GOD AND FATHER OF THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST ACCORDING TO HIS GREAT
00:27:05.42\00:27:09.49
MERCY. HE HAS
CAUSED US TO BE BORN
00:27:09.49\00:27:12.33
AGAIN, AND HERE IT IS, TO A
LIVING HOPE, THROUGH, NOTICE,
00:27:12.33\00:27:17.90
THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS
CHRIST THROUGH THAT EVENT.
00:27:17.90\00:27:21.34
WITHOUT THAT EVENT, THE SAVIOR
OF THE UNIVERSE DIED, BUT HAD
00:27:21.34\00:27:28.01
HEED NO RESURRECTED WE
WOULDN'T EVEN BE HAVING THIS
00:27:28.01\00:27:33.15
CONVERSATION.
UNDEFILED AND UNFADING, HE GOES
00:27:33.15\00:27:38.55
ON TO KEEP IN HEAVEN FOR YOU,
WHO BY GOD'S POWER ARE BEING
00:27:38.55\00:27:42.69
GUARDED THROUGH FAITH FOR A
SALVATION READY TO BE REVEALED
00:27:42.69\00:27:46.53
IN THE LAST TIME. AND
IT GOES ON TO SAY, IN THIS
00:27:46.53\00:27:51.60
YOU REJOICE -- IT BECOMES
PERSONAL -- IN THIS YOU REJOICE
00:27:51.60\00:27:56.44
FOR A LITTLE WHILE, IF
NECESSARY, YOU HAVE BEEN GRIEVED
00:27:56.44\00:28:01.18
BY VARIOUS TRIALS -- AND WE
ALL HAVE -- SO THAT THE TESTED
00:28:01.18\00:28:07.88
GENUINOUS OF YOUR FAITH MORE
PRECIOUS THAN GOLD, THOUGH IT IS
00:28:07.88\00:28:11.55
TESTED BY FIRE. AND I
TELL YOU IF YOU LOST A
00:28:11.55\00:28:14.92
CLOSE LOVED ONE, IT FEELS LIKE
YOU ARE WALKING THROUGH A FIREY
00:28:14.92\00:28:21.00
DESERT HEAT LIKE NO OTHER AND TO
GO ON IN PRAISE AND HONOR AT THE
00:28:21.00\00:28:27.54
RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST.
PRAISE GOD FOR THAT HOPE.
00:28:27.54\00:28:29.27
>> AMEN. >> IF I
COULD ADD SOMETHING TO
00:28:29.27\00:28:32.71
THAT. WHEN YOU
EMPHASIZED SO SERIOUSLY
00:28:32.71\00:28:35.84
THERE, THAT CHRIST WAS
RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD, THE
00:28:35.84\00:28:39.55
IMPORTANT POINT THERE IS
THAT THAT PROVES CHRIST HAS
00:28:39.55\00:28:42.58
POWER -- AND YOU MENTIONED
THE WORD POWER -- OVER DEATH.
00:28:42.58\00:28:46.42
>> AMEN. >> AND THE
KEY IS WHEN WE'RE IN
00:28:46.42\00:28:50.56
CHRIST. A LOT OF
THESE THINGS DON'T MAKE
00:28:50.56\00:28:54.20
SINCE. WHAT IS IN CHRIST?
00:28:54.20\00:28:56.43
WELL, THAT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW.
BEING IN CHRIST MEANS YOU ACCEPT
00:28:56.43\00:29:00.57
HIM AS A SAVIOR, BECAUSE HE
HAS POWER OVER DEATH, AND THAT'S
00:29:00.57\00:29:06.04
WHAT WE NEED SOME
HELP. AND SO BE IN CHRIST.
00:29:06.04\00:29:09.41
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
AND IF HE HAS POWER OVER
00:29:09.41\00:29:12.11
DEATH, HE HAS POWER IN
OUR EVERY DAY ACTIVITIES ALSO.
00:29:12.11\00:29:15.45
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >> SO
GO BACK TO THIS PRECIOUS
00:29:15.45\00:29:18.82
LITTLE LADY THAT WE WERE TALKING
ABOUT, I MEAN, GOD IS PRESENT.
00:29:18.82\00:29:24.36
AND, YOU KNOW, WE
ENCOURAGE -- ASK HIM INTO YOUR
00:29:24.36\00:29:27.73
HEART. INTO YOUR LIFE.
00:29:27.73\00:29:29.13
ASK HIM TO BE A
STEP AHEAD OF YOU.
00:29:29.13\00:29:31.80
TO COVER YOUR BACK. TO
BE ON EACH SIDE OF YOU.
00:29:31.80\00:29:35.40
LORD, INCREASE YOUR FAITH.
CAN I TELL YOU A STORY REAL
00:29:35.40\00:29:40.21
QUICK. THIS IS A
LIVE STORY -- IT WILL
00:29:40.21\00:29:41.71
TAKE ABOUT THREE MINUTES, BUT
THIS IS SOMETHING WE HAVE BEEN
00:29:41.71\00:29:45.28
PRAYING FOR, FOR
THREE OR FOUR WEEKS.
00:29:45.28\00:29:47.88
THERE IS A LITTLE BOY
BY THE NAME OF ZANDER.
00:29:47.88\00:29:51.42
AND I WANT TO PRAY ABOUT HOW
GOD IS WORKING IN SANDER'S LIFE.
00:29:51.42\00:29:57.73
HIS PRECIOUS MOTHER RUTH, SHE
HAS TO BE A WORD CLASS WRITER,
00:29:57.73\00:30:02.90
BECAUSE SHE SENDS
THIS OUT BY FACEBOOK.
00:30:02.90\00:30:09.60
ANYWAY DR. FALCO WALKS IN AND
HE SAYS, WOW, I HAD NEVER SEEN
00:30:09.60\00:30:13.84
ANYBODY QUITE LIKE THIS PRECIOUS
LITTLE BOY HERE HOLDING ON TO
00:30:13.84\00:30:18.21
LIFE. AND HE SAYS
I HAVE GOT -- I HAVE
00:30:18.21\00:30:21.08
GOT -- I HAVE GOT SOMETHING THAT
I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU, THAT I
00:30:21.08\00:30:24.25
HAVE BEEN HOLDING UP, BECAUSE
I JUST KEPT THINKING ZANDER WAS
00:30:24.25\00:30:30.19
GOING TO GET BETTER, BUT
HE SAYS -- THERE IS SOMETHING
00:30:30.19\00:30:33.70
MEDICAL THAT YOU CAN COMBINE
THESE DIFFERENT TESTS AND IT
00:30:33.70\00:30:36.80
GIVES YOU MARKERS
OF HOW ZANDER IS DOING.
00:30:36.80\00:30:40.50
NORMAL IS 5 AND BELOW. YES, WE
HAVE LITTLE BOYS IN
THIS-FACILITY HERE THAT -- THAT
00:30:40.50\00:30:48.91
THERE NUMBER IS TEN. >>
AND THEY ARE VERY SICK AT
00:30:48.91\00:30:52.25
TEN. >> VERY,
VERY SICK, JUST HOLDING
00:30:52.25\00:30:56.35
ON. AND THERE
ARE LITTLE BOYS THAT
00:30:56.35\00:30:57.89
THEIR NUMBERS OR 15, AND 20
-- THE HIGHST NUMBER WE HAVE
00:30:57.89\00:31:00.86
HAD IN THI HOSPITAL HERE
THAT WAS CRITICALLY ILL THAT WE
00:31:00.86\00:31:04.99
DIDN'T KNOW HE WOULD GO
FROM HOUR TO HOUR WAS 34.
00:31:04.99\00:31:09.10
LET ME SHARE YOU MY
LITTLE PRECIOUS RUTH.
00:31:09.10\00:31:12.93
YOUR SON IS AT 93. >> WOW.
00:31:12.93\00:31:15.47
>> 93. THERE IS NO HOPE.
00:31:15.47\00:31:17.44
PEOPLE ARE COMING INTO THE ROOM
BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'S MAYBE
00:31:17.44\00:31:20.88
THE LAST MINUTE THEY ARE
GOING TO SEE THIS LITTLE BOY.
00:31:20.88\00:31:24.28
NOW LET ME TELL YOU, TALKING
ABOUT THE FAMILY OF THIS BELIEF
00:31:24.28\00:31:28.75
AND WHO THIS JESUS IS THAT WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT THAT ROSE FROM
00:31:28.75\00:31:31.95
THE DEAD -- >> AMEN.
00:31:31.95\00:31:34.52
>> OKAY. AND THAT
HAS A PLAN FOR EACH ONE
00:31:34.52\00:31:37.06
OF OUR LIVES. I NEED
TO STRESS THAT GOD IS --
00:31:37.06\00:31:40.96
>> IT STARTS
OFF BY SAYING GOD --
00:31:40.96\00:31:44.20
>> GOD IS SO GOOD.
>> HE IS IMPROVING.
00:31:44.20\00:31:47.67
SO SHE SAYS GOD IS GOOD.
>> SO THEN SHE GOES ON AND
00:31:47.67\00:31:51.64
THIS -- HOLD ON, BECAUSE THIS
IS GOING TO TOUCH YOUR HEART.
00:31:51.64\00:31:54.84
I NEED TO STRESS THAT GOD IS NOT
GOOD BECAUSE ZANDER SURVIVED,
00:31:54.84\00:32:03.82
HORRIBLE THINGS ALL THE
TIME. BUT GOD IS ALWAYS GOOD.
00:32:03.82\00:32:07.82
HAD ZANDER NOT
LIVED, GOD IS GOOD.
00:32:07.82\00:32:10.53
>> AMEN. >> IF
ZANDER SURVIVED BUT WAS
00:32:10.53\00:32:14.83
PROFOUNDLY BRAIN
DAMAGED, GOD IS GOOD.
00:32:14.83\00:32:16.77
IF HE LOSES HIS
FEET AND HE CANNOT WALK.
00:32:16.77\00:32:19.70
IF HIS KIDNEYS NEVER COME BACK
AND HE NEEDS A TRANSPLANT, GOD
00:32:19.70\00:32:24.91
IS GOOD. IF
ZANDER GETS A SECONDARY
00:32:24.91\00:32:30.55
INFECTION AND HIS HEART ISN'T
ABLE TO CONTINUE TO PUMP, AND WE
00:32:30.55\00:32:33.42
LOSE HIM, GOD IS GOOD. HE
IS GOOD, AND WHILE WE ARE SO
00:32:33.42\00:32:38.22
THANK. TO ANSWER
YES FOR THE THOUSANDS
00:32:38.22\00:32:40.36
OF PRAYERS THAT HAVE GONE OUT
FOR ZANDER ALL OVER THE WORLD,
00:32:40.36\00:32:45.43
EVEN THEN THE
ANSWER IS GOD IS GOOD.
00:32:45.43\00:32:49.30
NOW LET'S JUMP UP THE THREE
WEEKS SINCE THAT WAS WRITTEN.
00:32:49.30\00:32:53.40
ZANDER HAS
IMPROVED. THANK YOU, JESUS.
00:32:53.40\00:32:56.27
AND THERE ARE A LOT OF LITTLE
KIDS THAT WE JUST MENTIONED HERE
00:32:56.27\00:33:01.14
THAT THEY ARE NOT AS FORTUNATE.
GOD IS GOOD ANYWAY, BECAUSE WE
00:33:01.14\00:33:06.95
DON'T KNOW HIS PLAN.
BUT LITTLE ZANDER IS DOING
00:33:06.95\00:33:10.49
BETTER. AND THEY
WERE GETTING READY TO
00:33:10.49\00:33:13.25
MOVE HIM -- >>
THEY MOVED HIM FROM THE
00:33:13.25\00:33:17.53
PEDIATRIC INTENSIVE CARE UNIT
TO THIS STEP-DOWN INTENSIVE CARE
00:33:17.53\00:33:22.90
UNIT. >> WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT THE
00:33:22.90\00:33:24.50
BLESSED HOPE. BUT WE
DON'T HAVE A BLESSED HOPE
00:33:24.50\00:33:28.34
IF WE DON'T HAVE A
POWERFUL GOD. >> AMEN.
00:33:28.34\00:33:31.41
>> AND THE BEAUTY OF THIS
-- JUST SHARE WHAT YOU SAID
00:33:31.41\00:33:35.48
TO ME THE OTHER DAY AS YOU WERE
STUDYING, DONALD, YOU SAID THAT
00:33:35.48\00:33:39.81
YOU REALIZED THE BLESSED
HOPE -- GENESIS 3:15 IS THE
00:33:39.81\00:33:44.45
BEGINNING OF THE
BLESSED HOPE. >> THAT'S RIGHT.
00:33:44.45\00:33:46.72
>> AND THIS IS WRITTEN BY
A WOMAN OF FAITH WHO KNOWS NO
00:33:46.72\00:33:52.53
MATTER WHAT HAPPENS HERE, GOD
IS GOOD, AND SHE HAS GOT THAT
00:33:52.53\00:33:55.70
BLESSED HOPE. YOU
COULDN'T -- NO MOTHER COULD
00:33:55.70\00:33:59.00
WRITE THAT IF SHE DIDN'T.
WHAT WERE YOU SAYING ABOUT
00:33:59.00\00:34:02.34
GENESIS 3:15. >> THE
IDEA -- THE ENEMY -- I
00:34:02.34\00:34:06.04
GUESS WE CAN TURN
THERE. GENESIS 3:15.
00:34:06.04\00:34:09.21
THAT'S THE BLESSED PROMISE RIGHT
IN THE BEGINNING OF SCRIPTURE.
00:34:09.21\00:34:12.95
THAT'S WHY I THINK IT'S
ALWAYS GOOD TO GO BACK TO THE
00:34:12.95\00:34:16.99
FOUNDATION. I'M
SURE MOST OF US CAN QUOTE
00:34:16.99\00:34:20.82
THIS BY HEART. I WILL
PUT 'EM NANTY BETWEEN THE
00:34:20.82\00:34:33.17
SERPENT AND THE WOMAN.
AND THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
00:34:33.17\00:34:36.57
LOOKING FOR A
MESSIAH A REDEEMER.
00:34:36.57\00:34:42.88
THEY THOUGHT LIKE WHEN KANE SLEW
ABLE, THEY THOUGHT HERE COMES
00:34:42.88\00:34:49.78
THE MESSIAH. >> AMEN.
00:34:49.78\00:34:56.29
AND REVELATION 13, WE KNOW THAT
HE HAS BEEN PROMISED AND HE IS
00:34:56.29\00:35:00.66
THE BLESSED HOPE. JOE,
I DON'T WANT TO THROW YOU
00:35:00.66\00:35:04.83
OFF, BUT LET ME ASK YOU THIS.
WHEN WEARE EITHER RESURRECTED
00:35:04.83\00:35:10.37
OR TRANSLATED AND WE'RE REUNITED
WITH OUR FAMILY, ONCE WE SEE
00:35:10.37\00:35:17.65
JESUS FACE-TO-FACE, EVERYTHING
ELSE IS GOING TO PAIL BY
00:35:17.65\00:35:20.88
COMPARISON, I THINK. >> UH-HUH.
00:35:20.88\00:35:22.75
>> WHAT IS THE FIRST QUESTION.
DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION YOU WANT
00:35:22.75\00:35:27.32
TO ASK JESUS OR WHAT
YOU WANT TO SAY TO HIM.
00:35:27.32\00:35:32.13
>> WHAT TOOK SO LONG? >>
AND HE IS GOING TO SAY MY
00:35:32.13\00:35:35.86
CHURCH COULDN'T GET
IT TOGETHER. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:35:35.86\00:35:40.34
>> THERE YOU GO. >>
YOU KNOW, TO ME THAT'S PART
00:35:40.34\00:35:43.00
OF THE BLESSED HOPE.
THIS ONE WHO HE WAS WRITING
00:35:43.00\00:35:50.35
ABOUT WHEN SHE IS TALKING
ABOUT ZANDER THIS ONE WHO WAS
00:35:50.35\00:35:56.35
PROMISED, THIS ONE WHO DIED FOR
US, AND WAS RESURRECTED, WE'RE
00:35:56.35\00:36:02.26
GOING TO GET TO
SEE FACE-TO-FACE.
00:36:02.26\00:36:08.96
>> AMEN. 1
CORINTHIANS 4:16-18, JUST TO
00:36:08.96\00:36:15.67
ATTEST TO THOSE PEOPLE AT
HOME WHO MAY BE STRUGGLING.
00:36:15.67\00:36:18.97
YOU MAY BE DEALING WITH WHATEVER
SITUATION YOU ARE DEALING WITH,
00:36:18.97\00:36:22.64
WHETHER IT BE -- YOU
KNOW, YOU GOT A BAD REPORT.
00:36:22.64\00:36:25.71
MAYBE YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD
YOU HAVE SO LONG TO LIVE.
00:36:25.71\00:36:30.85
MAYBE, LIKE MYSELF, YOU
RECENTLY LOST A LOVED ONE.
00:36:30.85\00:36:33.86
ALL OF THOSE THINGS BRING
PAIN, SORROW, AND DESPAIR.
00:36:33.86\00:36:40.96
NOTICE, I LOVE THIS PROMISE
HERE, AND IT'S A WONDERFUL
00:36:40.96\00:36:44.63
COUNSEL AS WELL.
THEREFORE, WE DO NOT LOSE HEART.
00:36:44.63\00:36:47.57
>> AMEN. >> EVEN
THOUGH OUTWARD MAN IS
00:36:47.57\00:36:53.51
PARRISHING, YET THE INWARD MAN
IS BEING RENEWED DAY BY DAY, FOR
00:36:53.51\00:36:59.31
OUR LIGHT AFFLICTION -- AND
SOMETIMES WE DON'T WANT TO THINK
00:36:59.31\00:37:02.92
OF IT THAT WAY, BUT FOR OUR
LIGHT AFFLICTION, WHICH IS BUT
00:37:02.92\00:37:08.49
FOR A MOMENT IS WORKING FOR US
A FAR MORE EXCEEDING AND ETERNAL
00:37:08.49\00:37:13.43
WEIGHT OF GLORY, WHILE WE DO
NOT LOOK AT THE THINGS WHICH ARE
00:37:13.43\00:37:18.40
SEEN, BUT AT THE
THINGS WHICH ARE NOT SEEN.
00:37:18.40\00:37:21.04
>> YES. >> IT SAYS
FOR THE THINGS WHICH
00:37:21.04\00:37:23.97
ARE SEEN ARE TEMPORARY.
BUT THE THINGS WHICH ARE NOT
00:37:23.97\00:37:27.01
SEEN ARE ETERNAL. >> AMEN.
00:37:27.01\00:37:29.71
GLORY TO GOD. >>
COME, LORD, COME.
00:37:29.71\00:37:33.01
>> AND PART OF THE BLESSED HOPE
TO ME IS THAT THE WICKED ARE
00:37:33.01\00:37:38.29
GOING TO BE
DESTROYED. >> UH-HUH.
00:37:38.29\00:37:41.32
>> TALK ABOUT THAT.
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WICKED,
00:37:41.32\00:37:47.10
DAKOTA? >> THE BIBLE SAYS IN 1
00:37:47.10\00:37:53.80
THESSALONIANS 2:8, WE READ ABOUT
THE COMING OF JESUS AND IT SAYS
00:37:53.80\00:38:03.04
HERE AND THEN SHALL THAT WICKED
BE REVEALED WHOM THE LORD SHALL
00:38:03.04\00:38:08.05
CONSUME WITH THE SPIRIT OF HIS
MOUTH, AND SHALL DESTROY WITH
00:38:08.05\00:38:12.55
THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING.
SO THE WICKED AND ALL OF THOSE
00:38:12.55\00:38:16.73
THAT ARE ALIVE ON THAT EARTH
DOING THAT TIME, ARE GOING TO BE
00:38:16.73\00:38:22.40
DESTROYED BY THE BRIGHTNESS
OF JESUS CHRIST SECOND COMING.
00:38:22.40\00:38:26.70
AND SIN CANNOT LIVE
IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD.
00:38:26.70\00:38:29.24
>> AMEN. >> AND
IT'S NOT CHRIST'S FAULT
00:38:29.24\00:38:34.38
IF WE CHOOSE SIN OVER HIM AND
ALLOW IT TO CORRUPT OUR MINDS
00:38:34.38\00:38:38.88
AND HEARTS WHEN HE COMES BACK.
HE HAS GIVEN US EVERY WARNING.
00:38:38.88\00:38:45.09
WE SHALL BE CAUGHT UP WITH OUR
LOVED ONES, AND SO SHALL WE EVER
00:38:45.09\00:38:49.59
BE WITH THE LORD THE SCRIPTURE
SAYS, SO WE KNOW THE WICKED IS
00:38:49.59\00:38:53.60
GOING TO
ULTIMATELY BE DESTROYED.
00:38:53.60\00:38:56.67
AND SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT THE
WICKED ARE GOING TO BE BURNING
00:38:56.67\00:39:02.14
THROUGHOUT ETERNITY, AND
I DON'T BELIEVE THAT'S SO.
00:39:02.14\00:39:05.31
>> WE KNOW MATTER OF FACT IF WE
LOOK AT REVELATION 20 -- WELL,
00:39:05.31\00:39:12.38
REVELATION 3:11, I
THINK, LET'S LOOK AT THAT.
00:39:12.38\00:39:17.69
JOE, YOU WANT TO
READ THESE FOR US.
00:39:17.69\00:39:21.86
LOOK AT REVELATION
20:4 -- YEAH -- REVELATION
00:39:21.86\00:39:31.93
20:4 -- IS THAT THE ONE? YES.
00:39:31.93\00:39:37.77
>> YEAH. OKAY.
00:39:37.77\00:39:43.11
LET'S SEE HERE. >>
REVELATION -- ARE YOU THERE?
00:39:43.11\00:39:47.58
>> I'M IN 20, BUT
I'M LOOKING FOR 4 HERE.
00:39:47.58\00:39:50.95
OKAY. I'M READY.
00:39:50.95\00:39:52.12
>> ALL RIGHT. 4 AND 5.
00:39:52.12\00:39:53.49
>> ALL RIGHT. AND I
SAW THRONES AND THEY SAT
00:39:53.49\00:39:55.89
ON THEM, AND JUDGMENT
WAS COMMITTED TO THEM.
00:39:55.89\00:40:00.33
THEN I SAW THE SOULS OF THOSE
WHO HAD BEEN BEHEADED FOR THEIR
00:40:00.33\00:40:05.63
WITNESS TO JESUS
AND FOR THE WORD OF GOD.
00:40:05.63\00:40:09.64
>> KEEP GOING THROUGH VERSE
6. >> WHO HAD NOT WORSHIPPED THE
00:40:09.64\00:40:13.81
BEAST OR HIS IMAGE OR RECEIVED
HIS MARK ON THEIR FOREHEAD OR ON
00:40:13.81\00:40:18.68
THEIR HANDS, AND THEY LIVED
AND REIGNED WITH CHRIST FOR A
00:40:18.68\00:40:22.62
THOUSAND YEARS.
>> NOW READ VERSE 14.
00:40:22.62\00:40:29.19
AND HE SAID HERE IN VERSE 6,
HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE SECOND
00:40:29.19\00:40:33.96
DEATH, NOW LOOK AT VERSE
14. >> THEN DEATH AD HADES WERE
00:40:33.96\00:40:38.40
CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
I LIKE THAT DEATH WAS CAST INTO
00:40:38.40\00:40:41.44
THE LAKE OF FIRE. THIS
IS THE SECOND DEATH, AND
00:40:41.44\00:40:45.11
ANYONE NOT FOUND WRITTEN IN THE
BOOK OF LIFE WAS CAST INTO THE
00:40:45.11\00:40:49.98
LAKE OF FIRE. >>
LET'S LOOK AT REVELATION
00:40:49.98\00:40:56.48
21:8. >> 21:8.
00:40:56.48\00:40:59.92
BUT THE COWARDLY MURDERS,
ADULTERS, AND ALL LIARS SHALL
00:40:59.92\00:41:09.60
HAVE THEIR PART IN THE
LAKE WHICH BURNS WITH FIRE AND
00:41:09.60\00:41:15.40
BRIMSTONE, WHICH
IS THE SECOND DEATH.
00:41:15.40\00:41:17.07
IT DOESN'T SAY LIFE.
>> YEAH, SO WE SEE HERE IN
00:41:17.07\00:41:20.81
REVELATION 20:6, IT
TALKS ABOUT THE SECOND DEATH.
00:41:20.81\00:41:24.81
REVELATION 20:14 TALKS ABOUT
THE SECOND DEATH, AND REVELATION
00:41:24.81\00:41:30.72
21:8 TALKS ABOUT
THE SECOND DEATH.
00:41:30.72\00:41:33.19
>> UH-HUH. >>
SECOND RESURRECTION, SECOND
00:41:33.19\00:41:36.79
DEATH. AND WE KIND
OF JUMPED AHEAD JUST
00:41:36.79\00:41:39.49
A LITTLE BIT ON THAT, BUT WE'RE
GOING BACK TO THAT, BECAUSE IT
00:41:39.49\00:41:44.87
IS AN EXCELLENT POINT. GO AHEAD.
00:41:44.87\00:41:47.04
>> I WANTED TO EMPHASIZE THAT
GOD IS LOVE, SO WHAT IS HE DOING
00:41:47.04\00:41:51.67
THIS FOR? HE COULD
HAVE SAVED EVERYBODY.
00:41:51.67\00:41:54.48
BUT HERE IS THE
THING YOU GOT TO THINK OF.
00:41:54.48\00:41:57.38
TWO-THIRDS OF
THE ANGELS HAD FAITH.
00:41:57.38\00:42:01.65
THEY DIDN'T HAVE PROOF.
THEY HAD FAITH THAT GOD'S WAYS
00:42:01.65\00:42:04.92
WERE RIGHT. THEY HAD
AN ADVERSARY OF GOD WHO
00:42:04.92\00:42:09.09
SAID YOU CAN PLAY
AROUND, MESS UP --
00:42:09.09\00:42:11.19
>> WHO WAS THAT?
>> THAT WAS LUCIFER.
00:42:11.19\00:42:14.50
>> OKAY. >> ONE OF
THE HIGHEST ANGELS, IF
00:42:14.50\00:42:18.10
NOT THE HIGHEST. AND
HE SAID, WE ARE SMART.
00:42:18.10\00:42:22.44
WE'LL DO FINE WITHOUT YOUR LAW,
AND SO HERE GOD IS WATCHING THIS
00:42:22.44\00:42:29.91
ANGEL WHO THOUGHT HE WAS SMARTER
THAN HE IS DESTROY THE WORLD.
00:42:29.91\00:42:33.98
I WILL AS THE MOST
HIGH WORSHIPPED, WHATEVER.
00:42:33.98\00:42:37.25
SO HE IS BEING GOD TEMPORARILY
AND WRECKING THE WORLD, AS GOD
00:42:37.25\00:42:43.59
IS OVER HERE
RESPONSIBLE AS THE JUDGE.
00:42:43.59\00:42:47.60
RESPONSIBLE AS THE ONE WHO PLAYS
OUT THE BLESSING FOR RIGHTEOUS
00:42:47.60\00:42:54.37
CHOICES AND THE PRICE FOR SIN.
AND HE HAD TWO-THIRDS OF THE
00:42:54.37\00:43:00.34
ANGELS SAYING
WE CAN'T HAVE THIS.
00:43:00.34\00:43:04.55
AND GOD SAYS THE
UNIVERSE WILL BE CLEANSED.
00:43:04.55\00:43:08.02
SO AS THE JUDGE, HE HAS THE
RESPONSIBILITY TO DO FOR THESE
00:43:08.02\00:43:14.99
TWO-THIRD FAITHFUL ANGELS WHAT
THEY DESERVE, AND THAT IS TO
00:43:14.99\00:43:18.26
HAVE A CLEAN UNIVERSE. >>
I LOVE WHAT YOU SAID, THAT
00:43:18.26\00:43:21.23
SIN CANNOT LIVE IN
THE PRESENCE OF GOD.
00:43:21.23\00:43:23.67
YOU KNOW HOW I LOOK AT THIS, SIN
CANNOT LIVE IN THE PRESENCE OF
00:43:23.67\00:43:28.54
LOVE. LOVE
CONSUMES SIN, AND GOD IS
00:43:28.54\00:43:31.81
LOVE. >> AMEN.
00:43:31.81\00:43:34.71
>> J.D. HAS -- HAS A -- I CALL
IT HIS BURN PIT -- ANYWAY IN OUR
00:43:34.71\00:43:44.25
BACKYARD, WE HAVE A BURN PIT.
AND HE PUTS IN ALL OF THE DRIED
00:43:44.25\00:43:50.83
LEAVES AND TWIGS AND HE LIGHTS
A MATCH AND IT JUST GOES UP IN
00:43:50.83\00:43:56.73
SMOKE. THIS IS
WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN
00:43:56.73\00:43:59.43
IN THE END OF THE
SECOND RESURRECTION.
00:43:59.43\00:44:02.97
IT IS LOVE'S JUSTICE.
PEOPLE ARE CRYING OUT, HOW LONG
00:44:02.97\00:44:07.14
ARE YOU GOING TO LET
THIS GO ON, OH, LORD.
00:44:07.14\00:44:11.01
AND PEOPLE WHO LIKE PORNOGRAPHY
AND ALL OF THIS, THEY WOULDN'T
00:44:11.01\00:44:14.08
BE HAPPY IN HEAVEN, AND THEY
WILL HAVE -- GOD IS NOT GOING TO
00:44:14.08\00:44:18.59
RETURN -- I MEAN THE BILE
SAYS THAT HE WANTS ALL MEN TO BE
00:44:18.59\00:44:22.59
SAVED. THAT'S
HIS HEART, BUT IT IS
00:44:22.59\00:44:25.59
LOVE'S JUSTICE THAT WILL DESTROY
EVIL, AND IF THEY HAVEN'T -- IF
00:44:25.59\00:44:31.60
YOU ARE STILL HANGING
ON TO EVIL, THAT'S IT.
00:44:31.60\00:44:34.40
SO WE'RE KIND OF JUMPING AHEAD.
LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT ETERNAL
00:44:34.40\00:44:39.27
LIFE WILL BE LIKE
-- >> CAN I SAY --
00:44:39.27\00:44:42.68
>> SURE. >> I
WANT TO SHOW GOD'S LOVE
00:44:42.68\00:44:48.68
BEFORE WE LEAVE IT.
FOR THE LORD SHALL RISE UP.
00:44:48.68\00:44:54.66
HE SHALL BE ROTH IN THE VALLEY
OF GIVEN THAT HE MAY DO HIS
-pWORK, HIS STRANGE WORK, DO HIS
00:44:54.66\00:45:06.40
ACT HIS STRANGE ACT.
WHAT IS THE STRANGE ACT.
00:45:06.40\00:45:10.34
THE REASON GETTING RID OF EVIL
IS BECAUSE GOD LOVES EVERYONE.
00:45:10.34\00:45:17.61
HE LOVED WHO YOU
WERE GOING TO BE.
00:45:17.61\00:45:21.38
AND LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAYS IN
EZEKIEL 33:11, AS I LIVE SAITH
00:45:21.38\00:45:28.66
THE LORD, I HAVE NO PLEASURE
IN THE DEATH OF THE WICKED, BUT
00:45:28.66\00:45:33.26
THAT THE WICKED WOULD
TURN FROM THEIR WAY AND LIVE.
00:45:33.26\00:45:37.17
WHY WILL YOU DIE IN WHAT IS IT?
I WANT YOU HOME FOR ETERNITY TO
00:45:37.17\00:45:44.84
ENJOY FRIENDSHIP?
WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?
00:45:44.84\00:45:47.84
I HAVE NO PLEASURE IN THE DEATH
OF HIM THAT DIETH SAITH THE
00:45:47.84\00:45:54.65
LORD, THEREFORE TURN
YOURSELVES AND LIVE YE.
00:45:54.65\00:45:57.72
HE IS BEGGING THEM.
THIS IS A LOVING GOD.
00:45:57.72\00:46:01.26
AND WELL -- WELL,
THAT'S ENOUGH, GO AHEAD.
00:46:01.26\00:46:07.66
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
I CAN GO ON AND ON.
00:46:07.66\00:46:09.06
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH, BECAUSE
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT -- THE
00:46:09.06\00:46:12.57
WRATH OF GOD WAS ALL THAT WAS
EVER PREACHED TO ME AS A CHILD,
00:46:12.57\00:46:16.87
SO TO FIND OUT THAT GOD IS A GOD
OF LOVE -- AND I SPENT A LOT OF
00:46:16.87\00:46:22.58
TIME STUDYING AND RECOGNIZING
THAT THIS IS BECAUSE OF HIS
00:46:22.58\00:46:25.71
LOVE. SO THAT'S
WHAT HAPPENS, AND AS
00:46:25.71\00:46:28.12
YOU SAID, WE -- IT IS HIS
STRANGE ACT, BECAUSE GOD IS
00:46:28.12\00:46:34.36
MERCIFUL. IN THE
OLD TESTAMENT, THERE IS
00:46:34.36\00:46:37.09
THIS BEAUTIFUL WORD THAT IS USED
CHESED, THAT IS THE GRACE OF GOD
00:46:37.09\00:46:48.34
MAGNIFIED. IT IS
LIKE TAKING GRACE AND
00:46:48.34\00:46:53.68
MERCY, AND IT IS USED LIKE
280 TIMES TALKING ABOUT GOD.
00:46:53.68\00:46:58.28
HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A GOD
OF -LOVE. AND THOSE WERE OLD
00:46:58.28\00:47:03.59
TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES
THAT YOU READ. >> AMEN.
00:47:03.59\00:47:05.39
>> SO THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.
NOW, DON, WHY DON'T YOU READ
00:47:05.39\00:47:11.69
REVELATION 21:2, BECAUSE WE
HAVE-pJUMPED INTO WHAT IS GOING
00:47:11.69\00:47:18.03
TO HAPPEN. THE BLESSED HOPE IN
THE BOTTOM LINE TO ME IS ETERNAL
00:47:18.03\00:47:22.70
LIFE AND ETERNAL
LIFE WITH GOD. >> AMEN.
00:47:22.70\00:47:24.44
>> SO WE HAVE TALKED
ABOUT -- FROM REVELATION 20,
00:47:24.44\00:47:27.64
THAT WE'RE GOING TO SPEND A
THOUSAND YEARS IN HEAVEN, THE
00:47:27.64\00:47:32.85
FIRST -- THE PEOPLE WHO ARE
RESURRECTED FIRST, GOD IS GOING
00:47:32.85\00:47:36.48
TO BE OPENING UP THE BOOKS.
WE'RE GOING TO UNDERSTAND HIS
00:47:36.48\00:47:41.22
JUDGMENT AND YOU KNOW WHAT,
WE -- WHEN WE SEE GOD'S BOOKS,
00:47:41.22\00:47:46.39
THE ONE WHO NEW FROM THE
BEGINNING, WE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN
00:47:46.39\00:47:51.83
LEAD ANY OTHER WAY
THAN HOW HE LEAD US HERE.
00:47:51.83\00:47:55.00
BUT AFTER THAT THOUSAND
YEARS -- YOU KNOW, SOME PEOPLE
00:47:55.00\00:47:59.94
BELIEVE THAT HEAVEN -- THAT WHEN
WE DIE, ETERNAL LIFE, YOU CAN
00:47:59.94\00:48:04.95
GOING TO BE FLOATING AROUND
ON CLOUDS, AND PLAYING A HARP.
00:48:04.95\00:48:09.52
THAT ISN'T IT. SO
LET'S LOOK AT REVELATION
00:48:09.52\00:48:14.02
21:2. WE HAVE GOT
-- BEFORE THE SECOND
00:48:14.02\00:48:17.06
DEATH, BEFORE THE
HADES, WE HAVE REVELATION 21:2.
00:48:17.06\00:48:21.76
>> BEFORE I READ THAT, I
WANT TO SHARE A QUICK TESTIMONY.
00:48:21.76\00:48:25.67
A YOUNG LADY CALLED ME EARLIER,
AND STARTED TELLING ME ABOUT
00:48:25.67\00:48:30.51
SOME OF HER PROLEMS, AND THEN
HE SAID I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT
00:48:30.51\00:48:34.08
THE RAPTURE AND
THE THOUSAND YEARS.
00:48:34.08\00:48:36.41
AND I THOUGHT THAT IS SUCH
A COINCIDENCE -- NO, IT'S NOT.
00:48:36.41\00:48:40.52
IT'S A DIVINE APPOINTMENT.
>> HANG ON JUST A SECOND, I WANT
00:48:40.52\00:48:45.52
TO SPRINGBOARD OFF OF
THAT. THIS IS A LIVE PROGRAM.
00:48:45.52\00:48:49.39
YOU CAN SPEND YOUR QUESTIONS TO
US AT LIVE@3ABN.TV, OR CALL US
00:48:49.39\00:48:58.37
AT 618-627-4651. WE'VE
GOT SOME PEOPLE HERE WHO
00:48:58.37\00:49:02.57
CAN ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS.
>> IT WAS JUST AMAZING HOW SHE
00:49:02.57\00:49:05.67
ASKED ME THAT. AND I
SAID WE ARE GOING TO BE
00:49:05.67\00:49:09.31
TALKING ABOUT THIS
TONIGHT, SO TUNE IN.
00:49:09.31\00:49:11.78
SO PRAISE GOD FOR THAT. BUT
CHAPTER 21:2 HAS A BEAUTIFUL
00:49:11.78\00:49:17.09
PROMISE FOR US. I,
JOHN, SAW THE HOLY CITY NEW
00:49:17.09\00:49:21.72
JERUSALEM COMING DOWN FROM
GOD OUT OF HEAVEN PREPARED AS A
00:49:21.72\00:49:26.29
BRIDE ADORNED FOR HER HUSBAND.
WHAT A POWERFUL THOUGHT, COMING
00:49:26.29\00:49:31.03
DOWN AND PREPARED. >>
YOU HAVE GOT TO READ VERSE 3
00:49:31.03\00:49:35.80
WITH THAT. >> WELL,
THEN WE HAVE TO GO TO
00:49:35.80\00:49:39.41
VERSE 4. AND I
HEARD A GREAT VOICE OUT OF
00:49:39.41\00:49:46.15
HEAVEN SAYING HE WILL DWELL WITH
THEM, AND GOD SHALL WIPE AWAY
00:49:46.15\00:49:53.39
ALL TEARS FROM THEIR EYES, AND
THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATHS,
00:49:53.39\00:49:58.96
NOR CRYING, FOR ANYMORE PAIN,
FOR THE FORMER THINGS ARE PASSED
00:49:58.96\00:50:03.87
AWAY. AND
SOMETHING THAT REALLY STICKS
00:50:03.87\00:50:08.87
OUT TO ME HERE, WHEN JESUS COMES
BACK TO ME -- WHEN I READ THIS,
00:50:08.87\00:50:13.31
HIS EARTH IS GOING TO BE THE
CAPITOL OF THE UNIVERSE.-pTHAT
JUST BLOWS MY MINE.
00:50:13.31\00:50:20.35
THIS SINFUL
WORLD WILL BE WATCHED.
00:50:20.35\00:50:23.32
>> ALL RIGHT.
EVANGELISTS, LET'S EXPAND ON
00:50:23.32\00:50:26.19
THIS IDEA. WE'RE
NOT GOING TO BE UP IN
00:50:26.19\00:50:29.69
HEAVEN FLOATING ON
CLOUDS, PLAYING HARPS.
00:50:29.69\00:50:33.50
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE DESCENT
AND WHAT HAPPENS KIND OF IN
00:50:33.50\00:50:39.00
SEQUENCE. >> ABSOLUTELY.
00:50:39.00\00:50:39.80
SO IF I WAS GOING TO DO A BIBLE
STUDY ON THIS, I WOULD LIKE TO
00:50:39.80\00:50:44.97
SHOW FROM A CHRONOLOGICAL
PERSPECTIVE, AND I JUST WANT TO
00:50:44.97\00:50:47.74
SAY UP FRONT, WHEN YOU ARE
GETTING TO CHAPTER 20 AND 21,
00:50:47.74\00:50:52.38
YOU HAVE TO BE KIND OF CAREFUL,
BECAUSE NOT EVERYTHING IS IN A
00:50:52.38\00:50:57.29
SPECIFIC CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.
IT IS ALMOST LIKE THE LORD IS
00:50:57.29\00:51:00.79
SPEAKING ON SOMETHING, AND
THEN BACK TRACES, AND THEN SKIP
00:51:00.79\00:51:05.79
FORWARD AND TALK
ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE.
00:51:05.79\00:51:07.30
SO YOU HAVE TO DIVIDE THE
TREAT WHEN YOU GET TO THESE NEW
00:51:07.30\00:51:11.73
CHAPTERS. SO THE
NEW JERUSALEM HAS
00:51:11.73\00:51:14.07
ASCENDED FROM GOD OUT OF HEAVEN,
AND WE KNOW HIS PEOPLE THERE
00:51:14.07\00:51:17.67
WITH THE NEW JERUSALEM AND
THE CITY ALL ENCOMPASSED IN ONCE
00:51:17.67\00:51:23.61
HAVE COME DOWN, AND THE BIBLE
GOES ON TO SAY HERE -- NOTICE
00:51:23.61\00:51:27.42
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS IN
REVELATION 20:8-9, THE BIBLE
00:51:27.42\00:51:34.56
SAYS -- AND THIS IS OF
COURSE -- SATAN HIMSELF, HE
00:51:34.56\00:51:38.69
SHALL GO OUT AND DECEIVE THE
NATIONS TO GATHER THEM TOGETHER
00:51:38.69\00:51:43.33
TO BATTLE THE NUMBER OF WHOM IS
THE SAND OF THE SEA, AND AT THIS
00:51:43.33\00:51:48.37
PARTICULAR TIME, THE DEVIL
HAS CONVINCED -- THIS IS THAT
00:51:48.37\00:51:54.28
SETTING RESURRECTION WE TALKED
ABOUT, ALL OF THE DEAD ARE
00:51:54.28\00:52:00.58
RESURRECTED AND THE DEVIL
DECEIVES THESE PEOPLE ONE MORE
00:52:00.58\00:52:03.45
TIME THAT THEY CAN
TAKE THE CITY OF GOD.
00:52:03.45\00:52:06.32
AND BY THE TIME YOU GET TO
REVELATION 20:11-12, YOU SEE AN
00:52:06.32\00:52:14.03
INTERESTING JUDGMENT SCENE HERE,
WHERE ALL OF THE PEOPLE THAT GOD
00:52:14.03\00:52:17.87
HAS EVER CREATED FROM THE
BEGINNING OVERTIME IS RIGHT HERE
00:52:17.87\00:52:21.07
IN ONE PLACE, THE RIGHTEOUS
ON THE INSIDE OF THAT HOLY CITY,
00:52:21.07\00:52:25.11
AND THE UPRIGHT CHOOUS, THE
WICKED ARE ON THE OUTSIDE, AND
00:52:25.11\00:52:33.78
THE ONLY THING THAT IS
SEPARATING THEM IS A TRANSPARENT
00:52:33.78\00:52:38.05
WALL. AND NOTICE WHAT VERSE 11
AND 12 SAYS, AND I DON'T WANT TO
00:52:38.05\00:52:42.59
KEEP RAMBLING ON, AND TAKE
SOMEONE'S TIME, BUT THE BIBLE
00:52:42.59\00:52:48.33
SAYS AND I SAW A GREAT WHITE
THROWN AND HIM WHO SAT ON IT,
00:52:48.33\00:52:54.44
FROM WHOSE FACE THE EARTH AND
HEAVEN FELL AWAY, AND THE BOOKS
00:52:54.44\00:53:00.11
WERE OPEN, AND ANOTHER BOOK WAS
OPEN, WHICH IS THE BOOK OF LIFE,
00:53:00.11\00:53:04.25
AND THE DEAD WERE JUDGED OUT OF
THOSE THINGS WHICH WERE WRITTEN
00:53:04.25\00:53:08.98
IN THE BOOKS ACCORDING TO THEIR
WORKS, AND OF COURSE AT THIS
00:53:08.98\00:53:11.82
MOMENT, AFTER THE GREAT -- THIS
IS WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE GREAT
00:53:11.82\00:53:17.86
WHITE THROWN JUDGMENT, AFTER
THIS HAS TAKEN PLACE, THE BIBLE
00:53:17.86\00:53:23.10
SAYS THAT EVERY EYE WILL SEE
HIM, EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, THAT
00:53:23.10\00:53:31.07
HE IS, INDEED
LORD. AND VERSE 8 AND 9,
00:53:31.07\00:53:34.14
CHRONOLOGICALLY AFTER THAT CITY
COMES DOWN AND THIS JUDGMENT HAS
00:53:34.14\00:53:37.21
TAKEN PLACE, NOW THE EXECUTIVE
PART OF THIS JUDGMENT, WHICH
00:53:37.21\00:53:41.88
SAYS THEY WENT UP ON THE BREATH
OF THE EARTH AND CAMPUSED AROUND
00:53:41.88\00:53:46.99
THE SAINTS AND THE BELOVED CITY,
AND FIRE CAME DOWN FROM GOD OUT
00:53:46.99\00:53:53.03
OF HEAVEN AND IT DEVOIRED THEM.
AND I WANT TO ADD HERE REALLY
00:53:53.03\00:53:57.03
QUICKLY, BACK TO THAT SUBJECT WE
WERE TALKING ABOUT VERY BRIEFLY,
00:53:57.03\00:54:03.10
THAT, YOU KNOW, GOD IS LOVE, AND
HE HAS SET THIS UP -- I DON'T
00:54:03.10\00:54:06.71
KNOW, GOD DOES NOT
KINDLE HELL FIRE FOR PEOPLE.
00:54:06.71\00:54:12.18
IT WAS NEVER HIS INTENTION.
HE HAS TO DEAL WITH THIS SIN
00:54:12.18\00:54:16.28
PROBLEM. AND WE SEE
THAT IT JUST HAPPENS
00:54:16.28\00:54:18.12
TO BE THE REALITY THAT MANY
PEOPLE WILL LOSE THEIR LIFE,
00:54:18.12\00:54:23.53
BECAUSE THEY LOVED THEIR SIN
MORE THAN THEY LOVED THEIR GOD.
00:54:23.53\00:54:28.03
>> AND DAKOTA REMINDED ME THIS,
A FRIEND, JORDAN MOORE SAID
00:54:28.03\00:54:34.07
SOMETHING VERY SIMPLE, BUT VERY
PROFOUND, AND THAT WAS WHY WOULD
00:54:34.07\00:54:38.94
YOU WANT TO DIE FOR YOUR SIN,
WHEN JESUS HAS ALREADY DIED FOR
00:54:38.94\00:54:44.98
US. >> THAT IS PROFOUND.
00:54:44.98\00:54:45.88
>> AND THE WICKED ARE DEVOURED,
SOMEONE ELSE WANT TO PICK UP
00:54:45.88\00:54:51.85
REVELATION -- I THINK NOW WE'RE
INTO -- OBVIOUSLY VERSES 14 AND
00:54:51.85\00:54:56.96
15 TELLS US THAT DEATH AND HELL
WERE CAST TO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
00:54:56.96\00:55:02.10
I THINK WE'RE IN THE
BEGINNING OF REVELATION 21 NOW.
00:55:02.10\00:55:06.33
>> COUPLE OF POINTS I
WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT.
00:55:06.33\00:55:12.84
IT SAYS HERE -- ONE THING
THAT STUCK OUT TO ME WHEN I WAS
00:55:12.84\00:55:16.48
TRAVELING TO HAWAII, THE LAST
FEW YEARS, AND IT SAYS HERE THAT
00:55:16.48\00:55:23.35
THE WICKED WAS AS THE
NUMBER OF THE SAND OF THE SEA.
00:55:23.35\00:55:27.66
>> UH-HUH. >> NOW --
00:55:27.66\00:55:29.39
>> A LOT. >> -- I NEVER REALLY
00:55:29.39\00:55:33.66
UNDERSTOOD -- THAT IS ONE OF
THOSE SCRIPTURES YOU SOMETIMES
00:55:33.66\00:55:38.47
READ RIGHT OVER. BUT
WHEN YOU AREON A BEACH, AND
00:55:38.47\00:55:42.27
YOU SEE THE SAND,
IT'S JUST OVERWHELMING.
00:55:42.27\00:55:47.14
WE KNOW THE BOOK OF REV NATION
WAS HIGHLY SYMBOLIC, BUT WHAT A
00:55:47.14\00:55:53.15
CY CY
00:55:53.15\00:55:56.72
CYMBAL -- SIMBLO TO USE.
THIS IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE
00:55:56.72\00:56:19.37
SEARCHING EVEN
MORE TO GET TO KNOW HIM.
00:56:19.37\00:56:22.81
AND IN VERSE 10, CHAPTER 20, IT
SAYS THE DEVIL THAT DECEIVED HIM
00:56:22.81\00:56:28.75
WAS CAST INTO THE
LAKE OF FIRE AND BRIMSTONE.
00:56:28.75\00:56:32.79
THE DEVIL IS GOING TO
BE THROWN INTO HELL TOO.
00:56:32.79\00:56:35.69
HE IS NOT IN CHARGE OF IT.
THINK OF IT, WHAT KIND OF GOD
00:56:35.69\00:56:40.80
WOULD GOD BE THAT SAYS, I'M
GOING TO PUT MY ENEMY IN CHARGE
00:56:40.80\00:56:45.50
OF BURNING YOU. >>
WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK WITH
00:56:45.50\00:56:53.58
REVOLUTION 21, BUT I GREW UP
IN BELIEVING IN A HELL FIRE THAT
00:56:53.58\00:56:58.55
WAS ETERNAL TORTURE, NEVER
ENDING, AND WE'RE GOING TO FIND
00:56:58.55\00:57:04.49
OUT THAT JUST AS GOD FLOODED THE
EARTH AND DESTROYED THE EARTH
00:57:04.49\00:57:08.09
WITH WATERS, WHEN THE NEW
JERUSALEM COMES DOWN, HE IS
00:57:08.09\00:57:12.53
GOING TO TURN THE EARTH, NOT
INTO A LAKE OF WATER, BUT A LAKE
00:57:12.53\00:57:16.97
OF FIRE, AND THEN HE IS
GOING TO RECREATE THE EARTH.
00:57:16.97\00:57:27.64
>> THAT'S RIGHT. >>
HELL IS A PUNISHMENT
00:57:27.64\00:57:43.12
