We pray that You will give us
the understanding that we need,
00:00:14.11\00:00:19.41
that we might see Your hand,
00:00:19.45\00:00:22.78
how You have guided, lay it,
00:00:22.82\00:00:27.32
that we might
understand the blessings
00:00:27.36\00:00:31.09
that You've poured out.
00:00:31.13\00:00:33.60
We pray, Lord,
00:00:33.63\00:00:34.96
that each one of us here tonight
00:00:35.00\00:00:37.70
may simply open
our hearts to You,
00:00:37.73\00:00:43.34
follow the
leading of Your Spirit,
00:00:43.37\00:00:46.31
and that all of us
may rejoice salvation
00:00:46.34\00:00:51.51
that we find in Christ,
for this we pray in Your name.
00:00:51.55\00:00:54.95
Amen.
00:00:54.98\00:00:56.32
There has never been a
nation in the history of mankind
00:01:04.16\00:01:09.63
that's been as blessed
00:01:09.66\00:01:11.80
as the United States of America.
00:01:11.83\00:01:14.64
Actually, this country
00:01:14.67\00:01:16.20
has received
the blessing of God,
00:01:16.24\00:01:20.74
even Israel in the
height of the reign of David
00:01:20.78\00:01:25.38
and Solomon
never saw the blessings
00:01:25.41\00:01:29.15
that you have had
the privilege of seeing.
00:01:29.18\00:01:32.52
God has abundantly,
00:01:32.55\00:01:34.82
marvelously
blessed this country.
00:01:34.86\00:01:38.56
God mentions nations
primarily for two reasons.
00:01:38.59\00:01:43.93
He mentioned them
because of the influence
00:01:43.97\00:01:46.27
they have upon the world.
00:01:46.30\00:01:47.90
And secondly,
because of their affect
00:01:47.94\00:01:50.74
upon the people of God.
00:01:50.77\00:01:53.68
United States is no
different as we have looked
00:01:53.71\00:01:57.05
at the scripture
night after night,
00:01:57.08\00:01:58.75
it speaks of
these different nations.
00:01:58.78\00:02:01.32
Revelation 17:10, and it says,
00:02:01.35\00:02:05.05
"There are also seven kings.
00:02:05.09\00:02:08.56
Five have fallen, one is,
00:02:08.59\00:02:11.99
the other has not yet come.
00:02:12.03\00:02:15.63
And when he comes, he
must continue a short time."
00:02:15.66\00:02:19.83
And so, as we have
looked at God's Word,
00:02:19.87\00:02:23.41
and we've
looked at these beasts,
00:02:23.44\00:02:25.27
one after
another, we have found out
00:02:25.31\00:02:27.61
that they
represent different nations.
00:02:27.64\00:02:30.45
You remember, we found out
00:02:30.48\00:02:31.81
that Babylon of old
represented as the image,
00:02:31.85\00:02:36.32
the head of the
image also as the lion,
00:02:36.35\00:02:39.95
scripture represented Babylon.
00:02:39.99\00:02:41.76
That's one head of the lion.
00:02:41.79\00:02:44.26
You remember, then
we came to Medo-Persia.
00:02:44.29\00:02:47.93
Medo-Persia was the arms
00:02:47.96\00:02:49.56
and breast of
silver on the image.
00:02:49.60\00:02:51.47
And you remember as we
studied Daniel Chapter 7,
00:02:51.50\00:02:54.60
it was presented as a
bear that is the second head,
00:02:54.64\00:02:58.07
and put it together, folks,
Babylon fell to Medo-Persia.
00:02:58.11\00:03:04.91
Babylon fell to Medo-Persia.
00:03:04.95\00:03:07.05
All right.
00:03:07.08\00:03:08.42
Then came the country of Greece,
00:03:08.45\00:03:10.12
represented on the image
00:03:10.15\00:03:11.65
as the belly and
thighs of bronze.
00:03:11.69\00:03:14.76
And you remember
in Daniel Chapter 7,
00:03:14.79\00:03:18.19
it was presented as a
leopard that had four wings
00:03:18.23\00:03:21.76
and four heads,
00:03:21.80\00:03:23.13
represented the swiftness
with which Alexander the Great
00:03:23.16\00:03:26.17
took everything
that was before him.
00:03:26.20\00:03:28.60
And then, you remember, we
came to the fourth kingdom,
00:03:28.64\00:03:32.57
the legs of iron represented
in Daniel 7 as a dragon.
00:03:32.61\00:03:39.28
Pagan Rome ruled
that period of time.
00:03:39.31\00:03:42.58
And then you remember,
00:03:42.62\00:03:43.95
we came to a fifth
beast in Revelation Chapter 13
00:03:43.99\00:03:49.22
as a nondescript beast
that I'm going to be saying
00:03:49.26\00:03:52.09
a little more about tonight.
00:03:52.13\00:03:54.10
We'll talk about it
00:03:54.13\00:03:55.70
in reference to
our subject tonight.
00:03:55.73\00:03:57.53
And then you remember,
00:03:57.57\00:03:58.90
if you were with
me the other night,
00:03:58.93\00:04:00.27
we talked about the sixth beast,
00:04:00.30\00:04:02.27
and that sixth
beast was that of atheism
00:04:02.30\00:04:06.21
or communism that
rose, you remember,
00:04:06.24\00:04:09.01
it came in when Napoleon
came in and overthrew...
00:04:09.04\00:04:15.02
Overthrew the papal power.
00:04:15.05\00:04:17.75
And then you remember,
00:04:17.79\00:04:19.25
after that we came to
our subject for tonight.
00:04:19.29\00:04:24.56
That's what we're
looking at tonight.
00:04:24.59\00:04:26.49
Now, as we take a look at that,
it tells us this very clearly
00:04:26.53\00:04:30.27
in Revelation 17:10,
00:04:30.30\00:04:32.90
"And when he comes, he
must continue a, " what?
00:04:32.93\00:04:39.27
"Short time."
00:04:39.31\00:04:40.64
So it says that
this seventh beast
00:04:40.68\00:04:42.28
that you and I are
going to look at tonight
00:04:42.31\00:04:44.35
that when he comes, he
must continue a short time.
00:04:44.38\00:04:50.02
Okay, so we want to put
that together and see exactly
00:04:50.05\00:04:53.36
what the scripture
is saying about it.
00:04:53.39\00:04:55.06
Now, you remember,
when we studied this beast
00:04:55.09\00:04:57.29
in Revelation Chapter
13, this nondescript beast
00:04:57.33\00:05:00.96
that had seven heads, ten horns.
00:05:01.00\00:05:03.97
We identified that
as the papal power,
00:05:04.00\00:05:08.14
because it makes it very clear
in scripture and in history
00:05:08.17\00:05:11.67
that the papal
power fell to pagan Roman
00:05:11.71\00:05:14.98
or pagan Rome fell
to the papal power.
00:05:15.01\00:05:18.38
Okay, I want to put
00:05:18.41\00:05:21.25
things in a time
sequence for us tonight,
00:05:21.28\00:05:24.32
so that you can see
exactly how this fits together.
00:05:24.35\00:05:27.52
So we're going to
go to Revelation 13,
00:05:27.56\00:05:29.69
and let's read a few texts here.
00:05:29.72\00:05:31.99
It says here in Revelation 13:1,
00:05:32.03\00:05:34.26
"Then I stood on
the sand of the sea.
00:05:34.30\00:05:37.17
And I saw a beast
rising up out of the sea,
00:05:37.20\00:05:43.34
having seven
heads and ten horns,
00:05:43.37\00:05:45.31
and on his horns ten crowns,
00:05:45.34\00:05:47.74
and on his heads
a blasphemous name."
00:05:47.78\00:05:50.38
So this is this
nondescript beast
00:05:50.41\00:05:53.11
that rose up out of
the sea that we identified,
00:05:53.15\00:05:56.15
we gave you eight
points of identification
00:05:56.18\00:05:58.39
that the scripture identified
without any question of doubt
00:05:58.42\00:06:01.39
as that of papal Rome.
00:06:01.42\00:06:04.89
"Now the beast which I
saw was like a leopard,
00:06:04.93\00:06:08.70
his feet were like
the feet of a bear,
00:06:08.73\00:06:10.67
and his mouth like
the mouth of a lion.
00:06:10.70\00:06:13.64
And the dragon gave
him his power, his throne,
00:06:13.67\00:06:16.30
and his great authority."
00:06:16.34\00:06:17.67
And you remember,
as we studied that,
00:06:17.71\00:06:19.37
we found that
papal Rome got its power,
00:06:19.41\00:06:22.24
its seat and its authority
from that of pagan Rome.
00:06:22.28\00:06:26.65
Okay, that all
took place step by step.
00:06:26.68\00:06:30.45
Now, as we continue,
watch what happens here,
00:06:30.49\00:06:35.32
because it says in verse 10,
00:06:35.36\00:06:38.59
"He who leads into
captivity will," what?
00:06:38.63\00:06:43.06
"Go into captivity, he
who kills with the sword
00:06:43.10\00:06:47.30
must be killed with the sword.
00:06:47.34\00:06:50.74
Here is the patience and
the faith of the saints."
00:06:50.77\00:06:53.91
So the scripture
is saying clearly
00:06:53.94\00:06:55.91
that this beast in Revelation 13
00:06:55.94\00:06:59.48
which was that
of the papal power,
00:06:59.51\00:07:01.22
it said that it took
people into captivity,
00:07:01.25\00:07:03.89
it would go into captivity.
00:07:03.92\00:07:05.89
It says that it
killed with the sword,
00:07:05.92\00:07:07.62
therefore it would be
killed with the sword.
00:07:07.66\00:07:10.06
And we find out that Napoleon,
00:07:10.09\00:07:14.13
Napoleon is
wanting to control Europe.
00:07:14.16\00:07:16.97
But Napoleon knows that
he cannot control Europe
00:07:17.00\00:07:20.37
unless he can break the
back of the papal power.
00:07:20.40\00:07:24.37
So Napoleon on
February 15, 1798,
00:07:24.41\00:07:29.84
sent his General
Berthier into Rome
00:07:29.88\00:07:33.45
and which he
overthrew the papal power
00:07:33.48\00:07:36.35
and as history says, he
established a secular one.
00:07:36.38\00:07:41.56
Okay, you with me?
00:07:41.59\00:07:42.92
Now, I want you to
watch very, very carefully
00:07:42.96\00:07:47.50
because this is the
first beast of Revelation 13,
00:07:47.53\00:07:51.93
but in that 13th
Chapter is a second beast
00:07:51.97\00:07:55.80
that it says this about it.
00:07:55.84\00:07:57.54
Revelation 13,
verse what? Eleven.
00:07:57.57\00:08:01.28
I just read to you
verse 10 that says,
00:08:01.31\00:08:04.75
"He that goeth into captivity
or leadeth into captivity
00:08:04.78\00:08:08.42
shall go into captivity,
00:08:08.45\00:08:09.78
he that kills with the sword
must be killed with the sword."
00:08:09.82\00:08:12.52
That is verse 10.
Verse 11 reads this way.
00:08:12.55\00:08:15.96
"Then I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth.
00:08:15.99\00:08:20.13
He had two horns like a
lamb and spoke like a dragon."
00:08:20.16\00:08:25.70
So what it is saying
here is just as this one beast
00:08:25.73\00:08:30.54
in Revelation 13 is going
down, going into captivity,
00:08:30.57\00:08:35.78
he said, I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth.
00:08:35.81\00:08:41.15
He had two horns like a
lamb, spake as a dragon.
00:08:41.18\00:08:44.35
What I am trying
to tell you tonight,
00:08:44.39\00:08:46.45
dear friend, is
there is only one power
00:08:46.49\00:08:49.69
on the face of the whole earth
that fits that time sequence.
00:08:49.72\00:08:54.20
No other power does.
00:08:54.23\00:08:56.10
I don't care how much
you want to talk about it.
00:08:56.13\00:08:58.53
You can take God's Word,
and there is only one nation,
00:08:58.57\00:09:02.50
one power that will fit that
time sequence and none other.
00:09:02.54\00:09:07.84
You watch very carefully.
00:09:07.88\00:09:09.51
Napoleon sent his
General Berthier into Rome
00:09:09.54\00:09:12.81
on February 15,
1798, and that power,
00:09:12.85\00:09:17.85
the nondescript beast,
00:09:17.89\00:09:19.59
the first beast of Revelation 13
00:09:19.62\00:09:21.82
went into captivity.
00:09:21.86\00:09:23.83
Watch what happens
now as this beast here...
00:09:23.86\00:09:28.56
As this beast in Revelation
13 is going into captivity,
00:09:28.60\00:09:33.34
the scripture says
this beast is coming up.
00:09:33.37\00:09:36.77
I saw another beast
rising out of the earth.
00:09:36.81\00:09:41.51
Are you acquainted with a
man by the name of John Wesley?
00:09:41.54\00:09:45.78
Do you know who
I'm talking about?
00:09:45.81\00:09:48.25
You know who I'm talking about?
00:09:48.28\00:09:49.62
I'm talking about John Wesley.
00:09:49.65\00:09:50.99
John Wesley is basically the one
00:09:51.02\00:09:52.95
that started the
Methodist Church,
00:09:52.99\00:09:55.09
a great preacher,
00:09:55.12\00:09:57.06
a great preacher
of righteousness.
00:09:57.09\00:09:59.16
John Wesley, as he
studied the scripture,
00:09:59.19\00:10:01.73
and he studied particularly
00:10:01.76\00:10:03.10
the books of
Daniel and Revelation.
00:10:03.13\00:10:05.33
John Wesley would
make notes about it.
00:10:05.37\00:10:08.37
I don't know, he just wrote
it on pieces of paper, notes.
00:10:08.40\00:10:11.41
And when John Wesley died,
00:10:11.44\00:10:14.11
they gathered all those notes up
00:10:14.14\00:10:16.11
and published them.
00:10:16.14\00:10:18.11
And so you can buy a book
called Notes on Revelation
00:10:18.15\00:10:21.65
by John Wesley.
00:10:21.68\00:10:23.32
When you read what John Wesley
00:10:23.35\00:10:25.35
has to say
about these two beasts
00:10:25.39\00:10:27.52
that we're looking at tonight,
00:10:27.56\00:10:29.06
I want you to notice
something very interesting
00:10:29.09\00:10:31.26
because this is
what John Wesley says.
00:10:31.29\00:10:33.80
"He is not yet come..."
00:10:33.83\00:10:36.67
Now, John Wesley is saying that
second beast of Revelation 13,
00:10:36.70\00:10:41.17
the two-horned
beast is not yet come,
00:10:41.20\00:10:44.37
"though he cannot be far off,
00:10:44.41\00:10:48.28
for he is to appear at the
end of the forty-two months
00:10:48.31\00:10:53.72
of the first beast."
00:10:53.75\00:10:55.95
He said, "He
can't be very far off
00:10:55.98\00:10:58.65
because he is to appear
at the end of the 42 months
00:10:58.69\00:11:02.22
of the first beast."
00:11:02.26\00:11:03.59
The 42 months of the first beast
00:11:03.63\00:11:05.43
came to an end when, friends?
00:11:05.46\00:11:08.13
1798.
00:11:08.16\00:11:10.17
Did you notice when
John Wesley wrote this?
00:11:10.20\00:11:13.97
1754.
00:11:14.00\00:11:17.31
1754, John Wesley
wrote, "Can't be very far off
00:11:17.34\00:11:21.91
'cause he's got to come
at the end of the 42 months
00:11:21.94\00:11:25.48
of the first beast.
00:11:25.51\00:11:26.85
In other words,
John Wesley understood
00:11:26.88\00:11:29.12
what God's Word was saying.
00:11:29.15\00:11:30.92
He was right there, he
knew what was taking place.
00:11:30.95\00:11:35.42
So just exactly as
one was going down,
00:11:35.46\00:11:39.26
the other one, scripture says,
was going to come up, watch.
00:11:39.29\00:11:44.90
For you remember,
trouble has developed
00:11:44.93\00:11:50.14
between the colonies in England.
00:11:50.17\00:11:53.84
England has not
given to our forefathers
00:11:53.88\00:11:59.51
the right to
governance, they like to govern.
00:11:59.55\00:12:03.92
And you remember, they
decided they wanted to be
00:12:03.95\00:12:06.55
a independent nation.
00:12:06.59\00:12:09.82
You remember that, huh?
00:12:09.86\00:12:11.69
And so they wrote up something
00:12:11.73\00:12:13.50
called the
Declaration of Independence.
00:12:13.53\00:12:19.03
Remember that?
00:12:19.07\00:12:20.40
You remember, our forefathers,
00:12:20.44\00:12:22.30
our forefathers
came over to this country
00:12:22.34\00:12:25.37
looking for a place
where they could worship
00:12:25.41\00:12:29.08
as they pleased,
00:12:29.11\00:12:30.45
where they could
build a new life.
00:12:30.48\00:12:32.98
And those people
were called pilgrims.
00:12:33.01\00:12:37.19
And they came over here
and they landed at a place
00:12:37.22\00:12:40.52
called Plymouth Rock.
00:12:40.56\00:12:43.09
You remember they
moved there on Plymouth Rock.
00:12:43.12\00:12:46.39
Now, if you don't think
that God had a hand in this,
00:12:46.43\00:12:50.07
let me share something with you.
00:12:50.10\00:12:53.23
If you ever get the opportunity,
00:12:53.27\00:12:55.00
you should go up to Plymouth,
and go there and take a look.
00:12:55.04\00:12:59.01
They rebuilt the village
there where the people lived.
00:12:59.04\00:13:02.28
And when you go
in and talk to them,
00:13:02.31\00:13:04.11
you can only talk to
them about things back then,
00:13:04.15\00:13:06.92
that what's most interesting.
00:13:06.95\00:13:09.48
But by the way, you
remember there was another town
00:13:09.52\00:13:12.65
that was established
here in this country.
00:13:12.69\00:13:15.36
You know what
the name of it was?
00:13:15.39\00:13:17.49
Jamestown.
00:13:17.53\00:13:19.83
Jamestown completely
00:13:19.86\00:13:23.57
was wiped out three times.
00:13:23.60\00:13:26.97
So how was it that Plymouth Rock
00:13:27.00\00:13:29.64
was able to make it is
00:13:29.67\00:13:31.01
because when those
people got off the ship, folks,
00:13:31.04\00:13:33.98
they found
buildings there with food in
00:13:34.01\00:13:38.15
and nobody living there.
00:13:38.18\00:13:41.68
Talking about the hand
of God and what He did.
00:13:41.72\00:13:45.22
The pilgrims landed
at Plymouth Rock when?
00:13:45.25\00:13:50.16
1620.
00:13:50.19\00:13:52.46
1620, they
landed at Plymouth Rock
00:13:52.49\00:13:55.63
and they begin to
set up their livelihood,
00:13:55.66\00:13:58.77
they begin to build
and then as it developed,
00:13:58.80\00:14:03.10
as I mentioned,
00:14:03.14\00:14:04.47
England was not given
the right to rule like
00:14:04.51\00:14:06.71
they thought they
ought to be able to.
00:14:06.74\00:14:08.68
And so we decided
00:14:08.71\00:14:10.05
that we wanted to
be a independent nation
00:14:10.08\00:14:12.78
and we drew up the
Declaration of Independence
00:14:12.81\00:14:17.62
when?
00:14:17.65\00:14:20.12
1776.
00:14:20.16\00:14:23.93
Are you putting things together?
00:14:23.96\00:14:26.16
1776, you have the
Declaration of Independence.
00:14:26.19\00:14:30.03
1789, you have
the Bill of Rights.
00:14:30.07\00:14:35.47
1791, you have the
Bill of Rights Adopted.
00:14:35.50\00:14:40.78
1798, that first
beast goes into captivity,
00:14:40.81\00:14:46.72
and you have
another nation rising.
00:14:46.75\00:14:49.95
Dear friends,
there's not another power,
00:14:49.98\00:14:52.29
not another nation on earth
that fits that time sequence,
00:14:52.32\00:14:56.66
only the United States.
00:14:56.69\00:14:58.86
So is this one is
coming up out of the earth.
00:14:58.89\00:15:03.93
Now this text that we
read in Revelation 13:11
00:15:03.97\00:15:08.44
is a very important one,
00:15:08.47\00:15:09.80
it has a lot of
information in it.
00:15:09.84\00:15:11.67
And it says this,
00:15:11.71\00:15:13.48
"Then I saw
another beast coming up
00:15:13.51\00:15:15.44
out of the earth, he
had two horns like a lamb,
00:15:15.48\00:15:20.48
spake as a dragon."
00:15:20.52\00:15:23.99
Had two horns
like a lamb, right?
00:15:24.02\00:15:29.79
Now you see, all the beasts
that we've been studying about,
00:15:29.82\00:15:33.60
they came up out of the what?
00:15:33.63\00:15:36.70
Huh? Out of water.
00:15:36.73\00:15:39.30
But this beast is
coming up out of the earth.
00:15:39.33\00:15:41.70
And we read here in
Revelation 17:15, it says,
00:15:41.74\00:15:47.31
"And he said unto me,
'The waters which you saw,
00:15:47.34\00:15:50.68
where the harlot sits,
are peoples, multitudes,
00:15:50.71\00:15:55.45
nations, and tongues.'"
00:15:55.48\00:15:57.39
One beast after another
rose up out of a revolution,
00:15:57.42\00:16:03.59
a war, that's the
way they came into being.
00:16:03.63\00:16:06.43
Now all of a sudden,
00:16:06.46\00:16:07.80
we have a beast
that is coming up
00:16:07.83\00:16:09.93
out of the earth.
00:16:09.96\00:16:12.87
You see this country,
00:16:12.90\00:16:14.84
this country
came into existence,
00:16:14.87\00:16:17.27
just exactly like it
says on the Statue of Liberty.
00:16:17.31\00:16:22.38
The Statue of Liberty
has this to say about it.
00:16:22.41\00:16:27.15
"Give me your tired, your poor,
00:16:27.18\00:16:31.02
your huddled masses
yearning to breathe free,
00:16:31.05\00:16:34.02
the wretched refuse
of your teeming shore.
00:16:34.06\00:16:37.16
Send these the
homeless, tempest-tossed to me.
00:16:37.19\00:16:40.96
I lift up my lamp
beside the golden door."
00:16:41.00\00:16:44.70
That's exactly how
this country was settled.
00:16:44.73\00:16:48.04
Your
forefathers, my forefathers,
00:16:48.07\00:16:51.24
they came over this
country and they settled it.
00:16:51.27\00:16:54.44
That's why it says that
it rose up out of the earth.
00:16:54.48\00:16:59.11
It wasn't the
result of a revolution
00:16:59.15\00:17:01.25
among the people,
00:17:01.28\00:17:02.62
it was because
they came over here
00:17:02.65\00:17:04.25
and they settled this country,
00:17:04.29\00:17:06.19
moved here because they
wanted to be able to worship,
00:17:06.22\00:17:09.32
and they wanted to be
able to rule as they thought
00:17:09.36\00:17:11.73
they ought to be able to.
00:17:11.76\00:17:13.09
That's why the
scripture says that it rose up
00:17:13.13\00:17:16.10
out of the earth.
00:17:16.13\00:17:17.57
Then again in
Revelation 13:11, it says,
00:17:17.60\00:17:22.00
"I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth,
00:17:22.04\00:17:26.07
he had two horns like a
lamb, spake as a dragon."
00:17:26.11\00:17:32.78
You see in the Bible,
00:17:32.81\00:17:35.58
horns on a beast
represent the source of power.
00:17:35.62\00:17:42.12
Sometimes those
horns have crowns on them,
00:17:42.16\00:17:45.49
meaning that
that particular power
00:17:45.53\00:17:47.20
would be ruled by a monarch.
00:17:47.23\00:17:49.60
Sometimes they
don't have crowns on them,
00:17:49.63\00:17:52.33
and so that those horns
just represent the type of power
00:17:52.37\00:17:56.40
that it's based on.
00:17:56.44\00:17:57.77
This country was
established on two principles,
00:17:57.81\00:18:03.38
two principles.
00:18:03.41\00:18:05.48
Our forefathers came
over here and they said,
00:18:05.51\00:18:08.75
"We want
government by the people,
00:18:08.78\00:18:12.12
for the people and
through the people."
00:18:12.15\00:18:15.89
They said, "This is the kind
of government that we want."
00:18:15.92\00:18:18.29
That was one
principle upon which
00:18:18.33\00:18:20.60
our country was established.
00:18:20.63\00:18:22.23
The other
principle that our country
00:18:22.26\00:18:24.07
was established upon was that,
00:18:24.10\00:18:26.20
that they would
give to every man
00:18:26.23\00:18:28.20
and every woman
the right to worship
00:18:28.24\00:18:31.14
according to the
dictates of their conscience.
00:18:31.17\00:18:33.74
And those were
the two principles
00:18:33.78\00:18:35.84
that this country was built on
00:18:35.88\00:18:38.65
was that we
would have a country.
00:18:38.68\00:18:40.22
They said, "We want a
country without a king.
00:18:40.25\00:18:44.55
We want
government by the people."
00:18:44.59\00:18:48.06
I don't know what you
learn when you went to school,
00:18:48.09\00:18:52.09
but when I was going to school,
00:18:52.13\00:18:54.30
they told me that the reason
00:18:54.33\00:18:57.17
our forefathers
rebelled against England
00:18:57.20\00:19:00.97
was over taxation.
00:19:01.00\00:19:03.87
Is that what you were told?
00:19:03.91\00:19:06.34
Didn't you read
about the Boston Tea Party?
00:19:06.37\00:19:09.41
Yeah, they said that,
00:19:09.44\00:19:10.85
you know, the
taxation was heavy.
00:19:10.88\00:19:12.68
Have you ever gone back
00:19:12.71\00:19:14.05
and read the taxation back then?
00:19:14.08\00:19:17.25
Huh? Have you ever done that?
00:19:17.29\00:19:19.29
You ought to,
it's very interesting.
00:19:19.32\00:19:20.79
Man, I would accept
it today with open arms.
00:19:20.82\00:19:24.26
I can tell you for sure, gladly.
00:19:24.29\00:19:26.70
But I want you to listen.
00:19:26.73\00:19:28.06
This is what our forefathers
tell us was the problem.
00:19:28.10\00:19:31.03
I don't know if
you've ever read about a man
00:19:31.07\00:19:32.90
by the name of Josiah Quincy.
00:19:32.93\00:19:35.10
But Josiah Quincy
is also one of those
00:19:35.14\00:19:37.57
that signed the
Declaration of Independence.
00:19:37.61\00:19:40.11
And this is what he had to
say in defense of our civil
00:19:40.14\00:19:46.68
and religious rights.
00:19:46.72\00:19:49.02
Are you seeing
the two principles
00:19:49.05\00:19:51.09
that our country
was established upon.
00:19:51.12\00:19:52.92
"In defense of our
civil and religious rights
00:19:52.95\00:19:56.36
with the God of
army on our side,
00:19:56.39\00:19:58.39
we fear not the hour of trial,
though the host of our enemies
00:19:58.43\00:20:02.76
should cover the
field like locusts,
00:20:02.80\00:20:04.97
yet the sword of the Lord
and of Gideon shall prevail."
00:20:05.00\00:20:08.70
Those were the two principles
00:20:08.74\00:20:10.51
upon which our
country was established.
00:20:10.54\00:20:12.74
And England was
not given the right
00:20:12.77\00:20:15.31
to govern as they should.
00:20:15.34\00:20:17.08
And it was not
given the right to worship
00:20:17.11\00:20:19.01
like they wanted
to and thus they said,
00:20:19.05\00:20:21.15
"We will have our own country."
00:20:21.18\00:20:23.72
Do you remember another man
by the name of Patrick Henry?
00:20:23.75\00:20:28.42
You remember him?
00:20:28.46\00:20:29.79
Do you remember what he said?
00:20:29.82\00:20:33.50
"Give me liberty
or give me death."
00:20:33.53\00:20:36.80
What else did he say?
00:20:36.83\00:20:39.53
Nobody never knows.
00:20:39.57\00:20:41.60
They know that and that's it.
00:20:41.64\00:20:43.30
I want to read to you
what Patrick Henry had to say.
00:20:43.34\00:20:48.61
"We shall not fight alone.
00:20:48.64\00:20:51.61
God presides over
the destiny of nations
00:20:51.65\00:20:56.02
and will raise
up friends for us.
00:20:56.05\00:20:59.25
The battle is not
to the strong alone.
00:20:59.29\00:21:01.66
It is to the vigilant,
the active, the brave...
00:21:01.69\00:21:05.56
Is life so dear,
or peace so sweet
00:21:05.59\00:21:08.60
as to be purchased at the
price of chains and slavery?
00:21:08.63\00:21:13.30
You see, this is the problem.
00:21:13.34\00:21:15.07
England was not given
the right to governance.
00:21:15.10\00:21:18.31
They felt they wanted to govern.
00:21:18.34\00:21:19.87
England was not
given the right to worship
00:21:19.91\00:21:21.88
like they felt they
should be able to worship,
00:21:21.91\00:21:24.91
and they said,
"No, we won't do this.
00:21:24.95\00:21:28.05
We'll have our own nation."
00:21:28.08\00:21:30.49
"Forbid it, Almighty God,
00:21:30.52\00:21:33.76
give me liberty
or give me death."
00:21:33.79\00:21:38.09
Those were the two
principles upon which
00:21:38.13\00:21:41.56
this nation was established.
00:21:41.60\00:21:43.60
Those two
principles, dear friends,
00:21:43.63\00:21:45.73
have held us in good
stead down through the years,
00:21:45.77\00:21:48.94
and God help us
if we give them up.
00:21:48.97\00:21:53.01
Stand on those two
principles, but it goes on,
00:21:53.04\00:21:56.88
speaking of this
two-horned beast,
00:21:56.91\00:21:59.71
and it says,
00:21:59.75\00:22:01.08
"Then I saw another
beast coming out of the earth,
00:22:01.12\00:22:04.95
he had two horns like a lamb
00:22:04.99\00:22:09.72
and spoke like a dragon."
00:22:09.76\00:22:14.13
Now, when you
pick up God's Word,
00:22:14.16\00:22:18.37
and you begin to study it.
00:22:18.40\00:22:20.94
What does a lamb represent?
00:22:20.97\00:22:23.61
In the Bible, what
does the lamb represent?
00:22:27.54\00:22:30.41
Well, let's look.
00:22:30.45\00:22:32.28
This is kind of what
it tells us it represents.
00:22:32.31\00:22:34.58
1 Peter 1:19,
00:22:34.62\00:22:37.55
"But with the
precious blood of Christ,
00:22:37.59\00:22:41.52
as of a lamb without blemish
00:22:41.56\00:22:46.23
and without spot."
00:22:46.26\00:22:48.93
You see, it
represents Jesus Christ.
00:22:48.96\00:22:52.80
Revelation 5:12,
"Saying with a loud voice:
00:22:52.83\00:22:56.74
'Worthy is the Lamb who
was slain to receive power
00:22:56.77\00:23:01.18
and riches and wisdom."
00:23:01.21\00:23:03.08
In the Bible, the
lamb represents Jesus.
00:23:03.11\00:23:05.48
And when it says that
this beast that rose up
00:23:05.51\00:23:07.95
out of the earth
had two horns like lamb,
00:23:07.98\00:23:10.92
it meant that it would be young.
00:23:10.95\00:23:13.22
It meant that
it would be gentle.
00:23:13.25\00:23:15.12
But it also meant that
it would be Christlike.
00:23:15.16\00:23:18.53
You see, our
forefathers that came over here
00:23:18.56\00:23:21.03
were God-fearing men and women.
00:23:21.06\00:23:24.07
They believed
in the Word of God,
00:23:24.10\00:23:26.43
and they built this nation
00:23:26.47\00:23:28.07
and established it
upon biblical principles.
00:23:28.10\00:23:31.17
And, dear friend, tonight,
if you go to Washington, DC,
00:23:31.21\00:23:34.31
and you walk through
the halls of Congress,
00:23:34.34\00:23:36.61
and you visit the Senate
and walk through the Capitol,
00:23:36.64\00:23:39.51
you'll find God
written everywhere.
00:23:39.55\00:23:42.78
You can walk through the parks,
and it's written everywhere,
00:23:42.82\00:23:45.12
because our forefathers
were God-fearing men and women,
00:23:45.15\00:23:49.32
and they believed in God,
00:23:49.36\00:23:50.89
and they took their stand there.
00:23:50.93\00:23:55.20
When the war took place
00:23:55.23\00:23:58.10
between the United
States and England.
00:23:58.13\00:24:00.00
That revolution was
so hard on the colonies,
00:24:03.41\00:24:09.54
that it separated all of them.
00:24:09.58\00:24:11.78
I mean, it
separated the communication
00:24:11.81\00:24:14.65
between the colonies.
00:24:14.68\00:24:16.15
And you may not have
realized it, friends,
00:24:16.18\00:24:18.55
but that war bankrupt
every one of the colonies.
00:24:18.59\00:24:22.92
I mean, just
totally bankrupt them.
00:24:22.96\00:24:25.56
And each one of
the colonies felt like
00:24:25.59\00:24:28.26
that they had lost everything.
00:24:28.30\00:24:30.57
And they had put
everything into the war
00:24:30.60\00:24:33.23
and they couldn't communicate
with the other colonies.
00:24:33.27\00:24:36.07
And so they felt like
00:24:36.10\00:24:37.44
they had borne the
weight of the war themselves.
00:24:37.47\00:24:42.88
So when the war was over,
00:24:42.91\00:24:46.68
and they called a
Constitutional Congress
00:24:46.72\00:24:50.85
and delegates came
from the 13 colonies.
00:24:50.89\00:24:54.36
When they arrived,
00:24:54.39\00:24:56.89
they were not in any
frame of mind to get along.
00:24:56.93\00:25:03.16
They got in argument,
after argument, after argument
00:25:03.20\00:25:06.57
until finally the delegation
from New York went home.
00:25:06.60\00:25:10.84
And it looked like that
whole Constitutional Congress
00:25:10.87\00:25:14.14
was going to fall
apart when a little man
00:25:14.18\00:25:19.58
wearing glasses stood up.
00:25:19.61\00:25:23.49
And he had this to say.
00:25:23.52\00:25:28.26
"We have not hitherto once
00:25:28.29\00:25:31.66
thought of humbly
applying to the Father of lights
00:25:31.69\00:25:34.70
to illuminate our understanding.
00:25:34.73\00:25:38.80
In the beginning of the
contest with Great Britain,
00:25:38.83\00:25:42.40
we were sensible to danger,
00:25:42.44\00:25:45.07
and we had daily," what?
00:25:45.11\00:25:50.25
"Prayer."
00:25:50.28\00:25:52.71
I'm talking about these
were God-fearing men and women
00:25:52.75\00:25:55.45
and when they were in
the midst of that conflict,
00:25:55.48\00:25:58.55
"They had daily
prayer in this room
00:25:58.59\00:26:02.32
for divine protection.
00:26:02.36\00:26:04.23
Our prayers, sir, were heard,
00:26:04.26\00:26:06.70
and they were
graciously answered.
00:26:06.73\00:26:11.30
Do we imagine that
00:26:11.33\00:26:12.67
we no longer
need His assistance?
00:26:12.70\00:26:15.64
I have lived, sir, a long time,
00:26:15.67\00:26:18.67
and the longer I live
the more convincing proofs
00:26:18.71\00:26:21.78
I see of this truth
00:26:21.81\00:26:23.48
that God governs
the affairs of men."
00:26:23.51\00:26:26.35
And with that speech,
00:26:26.38\00:26:27.72
Benjamin Franklin
was able to congeal
00:26:27.75\00:26:31.32
that whole Constitutional
Congress and those men sat down
00:26:31.35\00:26:36.93
and they wrote one of
the greatest documents
00:26:36.96\00:26:40.20
that has ever
been written by man.
00:26:40.23\00:26:42.96
Why?
00:26:43.00\00:26:45.27
Because they were
God-fearing men and women,
00:26:45.30\00:26:49.30
they believed in the Lord.
00:26:49.34\00:26:51.74
That's why the
beast is lamblike,
00:26:51.77\00:26:56.01
even when they came to
electing the first president
00:26:56.04\00:27:00.28
of this country.
00:27:00.32\00:27:02.55
And George Washington stood
and gave his inaugural address.
00:27:02.58\00:27:08.49
I want you to listen to
a few paragraphs from it.
00:27:08.52\00:27:14.83
"It would be
particularly improper to omit,
00:27:14.86\00:27:18.80
in the first official act
of my fervent supplication
00:27:18.83\00:27:22.44
to the Almighty Being,
who rules over the Universe,
00:27:22.47\00:27:28.31
who presides in
the councils of nations
00:27:28.34\00:27:30.78
and whose providential aid
can supply every human defect,
00:27:30.81\00:27:37.05
that his benediction may
consecrate to the liberties
00:27:37.09\00:27:41.12
and happiness of the
people of the United States.
00:27:41.16\00:27:45.63
No people," listen.
00:27:45.66\00:27:47.96
"No people can be
bound to acknowledge
00:27:48.00\00:27:51.27
and adore the invisible hand
00:27:51.30\00:27:52.93
which conducts
the affairs of men
00:27:52.97\00:27:55.20
more than the people
of the United States."
00:27:55.24\00:27:58.81
Oh, he said, "If
there's any people on earth
00:27:58.84\00:28:01.94
that ought to be aware of
God and what God has done,
00:28:01.98\00:28:05.98
it's the people
of the United States.
00:28:06.01\00:28:09.82
"Every step, every step
by which we have advanced
00:28:09.85\00:28:15.36
to an independent nation
00:28:15.39\00:28:17.39
seems to have been distinguished
00:28:17.43\00:28:19.89
by some token of
providential agency."
00:28:19.93\00:28:23.43
He said, "Every
step that we made,
00:28:23.47\00:28:26.30
there was evidence there
always of what God was doing."
00:28:26.33\00:28:31.27
"We ought to be
no less persuaded
00:28:31.31\00:28:33.48
that the
propitious smile of heaven
00:28:33.51\00:28:35.88
can never be expected
on a nation that disregards
00:28:35.91\00:28:40.78
the eternal rules
of order and right,
00:28:40.82\00:28:42.98
which heaven
itself has ordained.
00:28:43.02\00:28:46.09
"You see, they
were men and women
00:28:46.12\00:28:50.16
that believed in God.
00:28:50.19\00:28:52.49
They were men and women
00:28:52.53\00:28:53.86
who believed in the Word of God,
00:28:53.90\00:28:55.60
and they built this
nation on Christian principles.
00:28:55.63\00:28:59.73
That's why it says
that it was lamblike.
00:28:59.77\00:29:06.04
Unfortunately, it
doesn't stop there.
00:29:06.07\00:29:11.01
I wish tonight that it did.
00:29:11.05\00:29:13.82
I wish that it
just stopped right there
00:29:13.85\00:29:15.58
and I didn't
have to say anymore.
00:29:15.62\00:29:18.39
But that text
in Revelation 13:11
00:29:18.42\00:29:22.82
ends up by saying this.
00:29:22.86\00:29:25.89
"Then I saw another
beast coming up out the earth,
00:29:25.93\00:29:28.26
he had two horns like a lamb
00:29:28.30\00:29:32.00
and spoke like a dragon."
00:29:32.03\00:29:36.14
Now, folks, if the lamb...
00:29:36.17\00:29:38.91
If the lamb represents Jesus,
00:29:38.94\00:29:42.68
who does the dragon represent?
00:29:42.71\00:29:46.11
Yeah, just the opposite.
00:29:46.15\00:29:48.58
Just the opposite.
00:29:48.62\00:29:50.12
Now, if you don't understand
00:29:50.15\00:29:53.92
what's been happening
for the last 20-25 years,
00:29:53.96\00:29:58.59
then I would tell you tonight
00:29:58.63\00:30:00.90
that we're in the
process of a changing character.
00:30:00.93\00:30:06.20
That's what's going on.
00:30:06.23\00:30:08.34
That it is moving
from that of a lamb
00:30:08.37\00:30:11.77
to the place that it
will speak as a dragon.
00:30:11.81\00:30:17.11
Now, nations are
very much like men.
00:30:17.15\00:30:21.88
You see, nations
are built on the wisdom
00:30:21.92\00:30:25.22
and the might of men.
00:30:25.25\00:30:27.02
That's how they're built.
00:30:27.06\00:30:28.39
And because nations
are built on the wisdom
00:30:28.42\00:30:30.79
and the might of men,
nations rise, and they go down.
00:30:30.83\00:30:35.76
That's the way all of them do.
00:30:35.80\00:30:38.17
Almost every nation
00:30:38.20\00:30:39.87
that has ever
come into existence
00:30:39.90\00:30:42.27
has come into
existence out of bondage.
00:30:42.30\00:30:46.64
We were in bondage to
England, that's where we were.
00:30:46.68\00:30:51.98
You can find that Russia,
00:30:52.01\00:30:54.28
right tonight is
just coming out of bondage
00:30:54.32\00:30:57.85
that she was in bondage
to communism for 70 years,
00:30:57.89\00:31:01.89
but always out of
bondage comes spiritual faith,
00:31:01.92\00:31:08.30
that always comes.
00:31:08.33\00:31:10.30
Our forefathers felt
they were in bondage,
00:31:10.33\00:31:13.00
and they begin to pray
and they begin to seek God,
00:31:13.03\00:31:17.21
that God would hear their prayer
00:31:17.24\00:31:19.27
and would open up
the way and always,
00:31:19.31\00:31:22.28
always out of
spiritual bondage comes,
00:31:22.31\00:31:26.88
my friends, courage,
00:31:26.92\00:31:29.58
like Patrick Henry said, listen,
00:31:29.62\00:31:32.65
"If I can't worship
as I want to worship,
00:31:32.69\00:31:35.96
if I can't follow God,
00:31:35.99\00:31:37.76
if we cannot govern like
we think we ought to govern,
00:31:37.79\00:31:41.20
then give me
liberty or give me death."
00:31:41.23\00:31:44.97
That's great courage, and
they stand up and they say,
00:31:45.00\00:31:48.57
"This is what we
are going to do."
00:31:48.60\00:31:52.94
You find much of that
happening in Russia today.
00:31:52.97\00:31:57.75
Spiritual faith.
00:31:57.78\00:31:59.11
There has been a
tremendous revival
00:31:59.15\00:32:01.82
across Russia to God.
00:32:01.85\00:32:04.62
And as out of that
has come spiritual faith.
00:32:04.65\00:32:08.22
And out of that
has grown courage,
00:32:08.26\00:32:10.99
and out of courage
always comes liberty.
00:32:11.03\00:32:14.96
Dear friend, let
me tell you something,
00:32:17.30\00:32:18.63
there's no place on earth
00:32:18.67\00:32:21.67
where this Word
has been preached,
00:32:21.70\00:32:25.54
where people have gone in
00:32:25.57\00:32:27.21
and they've taught the
people the Word of God,
00:32:27.24\00:32:29.64
and people have
accepted the Word of God
00:32:29.68\00:32:32.51
that there hasn't
developed courage,
00:32:32.55\00:32:34.68
and out of that
has come liberty.
00:32:34.72\00:32:37.79
No place on earth
where that hasn't happened.
00:32:37.82\00:32:40.59
God's Word always,
always brings liberty.
00:32:40.62\00:32:47.30
And out of liberty,
00:32:47.33\00:32:50.17
always comes abundance.
00:32:50.20\00:32:54.70
You have had the
privilege of living in a society
00:32:54.74\00:33:00.68
where there has
been an abundance.
00:33:00.71\00:33:03.35
You go down to the store,
00:33:03.38\00:33:06.75
there is infinite
amount of choices.
00:33:06.78\00:33:09.68
I mean, not just
in different items,
00:33:09.72\00:33:13.42
but tremendous amount of choices
00:33:13.46\00:33:15.29
concerning one particular item,
because there is an abundance,
00:33:15.32\00:33:21.36
and you've lived in
a time of abundance.
00:33:21.40\00:33:24.43
God has marvelously blessed you.
00:33:24.47\00:33:28.47
I mean, beyond what
you and I can even imagine.
00:33:28.50\00:33:33.58
And if you
don't think He hasn't,
00:33:33.61\00:33:36.04
then you need to
travel a little bit.
00:33:36.08\00:33:39.71
Then you need to go in
some other places in the world,
00:33:39.75\00:33:42.82
and you'll
understand very clearly
00:33:42.85\00:33:45.02
that God has
blessed you abundantly.
00:33:45.05\00:33:48.59
Unfortunately,
you would think that
00:33:48.62\00:33:52.69
when people are blessed
and people are given so much
00:33:52.73\00:33:56.33
that God has given,
00:33:56.36\00:33:57.70
you would think that
their heart would overflow
00:33:57.73\00:34:00.04
with generosity
and they would give.
00:34:00.07\00:34:03.91
But unfortunately, it
doesn't work that way.
00:34:03.94\00:34:07.98
Out of abundance
comes selfishness.
00:34:08.01\00:34:12.65
Instead of giving, they keep,
00:34:12.68\00:34:16.12
instead of sharing, they hoard.
00:34:16.15\00:34:22.89
Completely different thing.
00:34:22.92\00:34:24.26
Now, dear friends,
00:34:24.29\00:34:25.63
what I'm trying
to tell you tonight,
00:34:25.66\00:34:27.13
and you be the
judge, I want to ask you.
00:34:27.16\00:34:29.93
Do you think that
00:34:29.96\00:34:31.70
the United States
is going up this side
00:34:31.73\00:34:37.34
or do you think
she's coming down
00:34:37.37\00:34:38.71
on the other side?
00:34:38.74\00:34:42.18
You see, out of selfishness,
because we're selfish
00:34:42.21\00:34:47.12
and we don't
share and we don't give,
00:34:47.15\00:34:49.48
out of that grows compliance.
00:34:49.52\00:34:52.55
Now just going to go along.
00:34:52.59\00:34:56.29
Do you ever hear somebody
say, "Ah, you can't City Hall."
00:34:56.32\00:35:03.26
Just go along with it,
not going to change anything.
00:35:03.30\00:35:09.37
Compliance.
00:35:09.40\00:35:11.31
And out of compliance,
just being willing to go along,
00:35:11.34\00:35:14.94
not willing to
stand up and be counted,
00:35:14.98\00:35:17.15
not willing to
make any kind of waves,
00:35:17.18\00:35:20.08
out of that always comes apathy,
00:35:20.12\00:35:24.69
always.
00:35:24.72\00:35:26.05
Just saying, you
know, don't disturb me.
00:35:28.29\00:35:32.96
Don't get me out
of my comfort zone.
00:35:32.99\00:35:36.26
I want to be right here.
00:35:36.30\00:35:38.27
Leave me alone.
00:35:38.30\00:35:39.63
Things are real good.
00:35:39.67\00:35:41.00
I don't want to be bothered.
00:35:41.04\00:35:43.30
And thus we have apathy,
00:35:43.34\00:35:46.11
and out of apathy
always comes dependence.
00:35:46.14\00:35:50.75
Always comes dependence.
00:35:53.58\00:35:57.29
See,
00:35:57.32\00:35:59.42
96% of all of
you here in this room
00:35:59.45\00:36:06.39
will retire dependent
00:36:06.43\00:36:09.86
upon the United
States government,
00:36:09.90\00:36:13.37
dependent.
00:36:13.40\00:36:16.71
And out of dependency
00:36:16.74\00:36:19.71
always comes bondage.
00:36:19.74\00:36:24.61
And so we make a great circle,
00:36:24.65\00:36:27.95
we go from bondage into bondage.
00:36:27.98\00:36:31.22
And when it says,
00:36:31.25\00:36:33.36
that this beast would speak
as dragon, then, dear friend,
00:36:33.39\00:36:38.13
this is what brings about
00:36:38.16\00:36:40.70
the beast speaking as a dragon.
00:36:40.73\00:36:46.40
There's another man
00:36:46.43\00:36:47.77
that signed your
Declaration of Independence.
00:36:47.80\00:36:52.51
You may not be
acquainted with him.
00:36:52.54\00:36:53.94
His name was Alexander Tyler.
00:36:53.98\00:36:56.85
He made a statement
that's tremendously important.
00:36:56.88\00:37:00.88
I want you to listen to
the statement that he made.
00:37:00.92\00:37:04.75
"Democracy cannot exist
00:37:04.79\00:37:08.49
as a permanent
form of government."
00:37:08.52\00:37:14.36
Democracy cannot exist
00:37:14.40\00:37:17.67
as a permanent
form of government.
00:37:17.70\00:37:20.94
Why not? Let's see why it can't.
00:37:20.97\00:37:24.87
"It can only exist
until the voters discover
00:37:24.91\00:37:28.21
that they can
vote themselves money
00:37:28.24\00:37:30.38
from the public treasury."
00:37:30.41\00:37:31.75
The moment that
people understand
00:37:34.55\00:37:37.45
that they can vote
themselves from money
00:37:37.49\00:37:40.56
from the public treasury,
democracy is headed downhill.
00:37:40.59\00:37:44.26
Listen to this statement
00:37:44.29\00:37:45.63
because we're right in
the middle of an election,
00:37:45.66\00:37:48.93
right?
00:37:48.96\00:37:50.30
You want to see something.
00:37:50.33\00:37:51.73
Watch this carefully.
00:37:51.77\00:37:53.44
"From that moment on,
00:37:55.14\00:37:56.47
the majority always
votes for the candidate
00:37:56.50\00:37:59.34
who promises the most benefit
from the public treasury."
00:37:59.37\00:38:04.81
So you want to take a
look at the candidates.
00:38:04.85\00:38:06.55
You want to see which one's
going to promise you the most,
00:38:06.58\00:38:08.58
and that's one
you're going to vote for.
00:38:08.62\00:38:11.49
You say, ha-ha,
he will give me more,
00:38:11.52\00:38:14.32
I'll vote for him.
00:38:14.36\00:38:18.13
And simply by doing that,
00:38:18.16\00:38:21.10
you're sending
your nation downhill.
00:38:21.13\00:38:26.10
"As a result,
00:38:26.13\00:38:27.84
a democracy always
collapses over loose
00:38:27.87\00:38:31.27
financial policy
00:38:31.31\00:38:33.14
and is always
followed by dictatorship."
00:38:33.17\00:38:39.51
The nation you see
wrecked itself financially,
00:38:39.55\00:38:42.62
and the only way it
can be brought out of that
00:38:42.65\00:38:45.35
is by dictatorship.
00:38:45.39\00:38:46.79
"The average age of
the world's greatest powers
00:38:49.79\00:38:53.29
has been 200 years."
00:38:53.33\00:38:55.93
You and I have had the blessing
of going a little longer
00:38:55.96\00:38:59.63
than 200 years.
00:38:59.67\00:39:01.74
Okay.
00:39:01.77\00:39:03.10
So we find ourselves
with this nation that rose
00:39:03.14\00:39:07.48
that was lamblike,
00:39:07.51\00:39:08.91
we find it now
speaking as a dragon.
00:39:08.94\00:39:13.65
"I saw another beast
coming up out of the earth,
00:39:13.68\00:39:17.19
he had two horns
like a lamb, and spake,
00:39:17.22\00:39:20.56
or spoke like a dragon."
00:39:20.59\00:39:25.96
Watch, watch very carefully,
00:39:25.99\00:39:28.73
because God is
now going to show you
00:39:28.76\00:39:32.10
what's going to happen, friends.
00:39:32.13\00:39:34.67
He's going to show you
exactly what's going to happen.
00:39:34.70\00:39:37.31
And let me tell you something,
this book hasn't failed,
00:39:37.34\00:39:42.34
and it's not going
to fail in the future.
00:39:42.38\00:39:44.71
And when God says,
this is going to happen,
00:39:44.75\00:39:48.08
you better rest assured,
it's going to take place
00:39:48.12\00:39:50.95
just as God said it would.
00:39:50.99\00:39:54.52
You remember
President called Richard Nixon.
00:39:54.56\00:39:58.19
You know who he is, don't you?
00:39:58.23\00:39:59.76
You remember him?
00:39:59.79\00:40:01.80
He wrote a book
called "Seize the Moment."
00:40:01.83\00:40:06.37
Not too
concerned about the title,
00:40:06.40\00:40:08.24
it's the subtitle
that I want you to look at.
00:40:08.27\00:40:10.97
The subtitle says this,
00:40:11.01\00:40:13.54
"America's Challenge in
a One Superpower World."
00:40:13.58\00:40:19.01
You see when communism fell,
00:40:21.58\00:40:24.09
all of a sudden the
United States found itself
00:40:24.12\00:40:27.02
as a superpower unchallenged.
00:40:27.06\00:40:31.89
How are we as a
nation relating to that?
00:40:31.93\00:40:35.73
South Bend Tribune newspaper.
00:40:38.77\00:40:41.07
This is what it reported.
00:40:41.10\00:40:42.94
"In a broad new policy statement
00:40:42.97\00:40:45.57
that is in its
final drafting state,
00:40:45.61\00:40:48.38
the Defense Department
asserts that America's
00:40:48.41\00:40:52.75
political and military
mission in the post Cold War era
00:40:52.78\00:40:57.55
will be to ensure
that no rival superpower
00:40:57.59\00:41:03.19
is allowed to emerge
in Western Europe, Asia,
00:41:03.22\00:41:07.26
or the territory of
the former Soviet Union."
00:41:07.30\00:41:11.73
In other words,
the United States says,
00:41:11.77\00:41:13.87
"We are a superpower.
00:41:13.90\00:41:17.01
And we're not going to let any
other nation rise to rival us."
00:41:17.04\00:41:22.98
In other words, the scripture
says that she will speak
00:41:23.01\00:41:27.75
as a dragon.
00:41:27.78\00:41:32.15
She will speak as a dragon.
00:41:32.19\00:41:36.56
And that's where we are.
00:41:36.59\00:41:38.26
Now watch,
00:41:38.29\00:41:40.13
because the
scripture is going to help you
00:41:40.16\00:41:42.23
put some things together.
00:41:42.26\00:41:43.93
Revelation, we're
still in the 13th Chapter,
00:41:43.97\00:41:46.77
we're looking at verse 14.
00:41:46.80\00:41:49.04
Watch very
carefully what it says.
00:41:49.07\00:41:51.67
"And he deceives those
00:41:51.71\00:41:54.24
who dwell on the
earth by those signs
00:41:54.28\00:41:56.95
which he was granted
00:41:56.98\00:41:58.58
to do in the
sight of the beast."
00:41:58.61\00:42:03.12
Now, this is talking
about the two-horned beast.
00:42:03.15\00:42:05.59
And it says that it was
able to do certain things
00:42:05.62\00:42:08.72
in sight of this first beast.
00:42:08.76\00:42:12.09
Okay, which was the nondescript
beast that had seven heads,
00:42:12.13\00:42:15.36
two horns.
00:42:15.40\00:42:16.73
Why, I mean seven
heads and ten horns.
00:42:16.77\00:42:18.30
Watch.
00:42:18.33\00:42:20.77
"Telling those
who dwell on the earth
00:42:20.80\00:42:23.00
to make an image to the beast
00:42:23.04\00:42:26.68
who was wounded by
the sword and lived."
00:42:26.71\00:42:29.71
Now, it says
that this first beast,
00:42:29.74\00:42:32.31
the one that went
down led into captivity,
00:42:32.35\00:42:35.35
it was wounded by
the sword and it what?
00:42:35.38\00:42:39.85
It lived, and therefore
it says this two-horned beast
00:42:39.89\00:42:43.49
is going to make an image to it.
00:42:43.53\00:42:46.73
Well, that first beast we
found out to be papal Rome.
00:42:46.76\00:42:52.43
That first beast,
that two-horned beast
00:42:52.47\00:42:54.87
was papal Rome, not
the two-horned beast,
00:42:54.90\00:42:57.67
excuse me, this, the beast
with seven heads, ten horns,
00:42:57.71\00:43:00.88
the first beast
of Revelation 13,
00:43:00.91\00:43:02.78
that was papal Rome.
00:43:02.81\00:43:04.18
And it says that this
two-horned beast that we're
00:43:04.21\00:43:06.55
studying tonight
00:43:06.58\00:43:07.92
is going to make an
image to that beast.
00:43:07.95\00:43:10.42
Now, I want to
ask you something.
00:43:10.45\00:43:12.89
If it's going to make an image,
00:43:12.92\00:43:16.42
if you're going to
make an image of a dog,
00:43:16.46\00:43:19.83
you make it look
like a cat, right?
00:43:19.86\00:43:24.67
If you're going to
make an image of a dog,
00:43:24.70\00:43:26.60
you make it look like what?
00:43:26.63\00:43:28.70
A dog.
00:43:28.74\00:43:30.07
Okay, so it says
00:43:30.11\00:43:31.47
that this beast is
going to make an image
00:43:31.51\00:43:34.38
to this other beast.
00:43:34.41\00:43:35.74
The papal power stood for what?
00:43:35.78\00:43:39.08
What made it the papal power?
00:43:39.11\00:43:41.58
It made it the papal
power because it was a union
00:43:41.62\00:43:44.09
of church and state.
00:43:44.12\00:43:45.49
It was a
religio-political power.
00:43:45.52\00:43:48.32
So therefore, it
says that if this country
00:43:48.36\00:43:50.73
is going to make an image to it,
00:43:50.76\00:43:52.49
you've got to have church
and state coming together.
00:43:52.53\00:43:56.97
Watch,
00:43:57.00\00:43:59.20
'cause it says
that this beast here
00:43:59.23\00:44:02.27
is going to make an
image to this beast.
00:44:02.30\00:44:06.37
Okay.
00:44:06.41\00:44:07.74
Watch what's
beginning to develop.
00:44:11.65\00:44:14.18
This is a statement
taken from the Moral Majority.
00:44:14.22\00:44:17.59
This is what they have to say,
00:44:17.62\00:44:19.52
"Separation of church and
state is a dangerous concept."
00:44:19.55\00:44:23.36
is a dangerous concept."
00:44:23.39\00:44:28.20
Separation of church and state,
00:44:28.23\00:44:29.96
they say is a dangerous concept.
00:44:30.00\00:44:32.87
"This is because the phrase
00:44:32.90\00:44:34.60
'separation of church and state'
00:44:34.64\00:44:36.24
is not found in the Constitution
00:44:36.27\00:44:39.57
and the misuse of the phrase
leads to all sorts of trouble
00:44:39.61\00:44:43.21
such as trying to keep godly
principles out of legislation."
00:44:43.24\00:44:48.08
Well, true enough, the word
separation of church and state
00:44:48.12\00:44:51.65
is not in our Constitution,
but that doesn't mean that
00:44:51.69\00:44:55.42
separation of church and
state is a dangerous concept,
00:44:55.46\00:44:58.79
at least our
forefathers didn't think it was.
00:44:58.83\00:45:01.60
It goes on and says,
00:45:01.63\00:45:03.37
"A thorough understanding
of our Constitution
00:45:03.40\00:45:05.80
is vital to our survival.
00:45:05.83\00:45:07.84
Let's talk more
like the Constitution
00:45:07.87\00:45:10.54
and less like bumper sticker."
00:45:10.57\00:45:13.21
So it says that we as a nation
need to bring church and state
00:45:13.24\00:45:18.98
together.
00:45:19.01\00:45:20.35
Let me read you another one.
00:45:20.38\00:45:22.08
It says, "Wipe the phrase
separation of church and state
00:45:22.12\00:45:26.15
out of your vocabulary."
00:45:26.19\00:45:29.86
I'm trying to tell you,
00:45:29.89\00:45:31.23
that there are moves today
00:45:31.26\00:45:33.60
to bring church
and state together.
00:45:33.63\00:45:36.30
Another statement.
00:45:36.33\00:45:37.67
W.A. Chriswell,
00:45:37.70\00:45:39.03
he said, "I believe
this notion of the separation
00:45:39.07\00:45:43.14
of church and
state was a figment
00:45:43.17\00:45:45.11
of some infidel's imagination."
00:45:45.14\00:45:49.84
And today, there are
many things happening
00:45:49.88\00:45:53.72
trying to bring
church and state together.
00:45:53.75\00:45:56.45
I don't know if
you've read this book called
00:45:56.48\00:45:58.19
"After the
Revolution" by Ralph Reed.
00:45:58.22\00:46:01.76
Ralph Reed was the
head of Christian coalition,
00:46:01.79\00:46:05.39
and which he said,
00:46:05.43\00:46:07.10
"We need to bring
church and state together."
00:46:07.13\00:46:11.10
In fact, this is a
statement that he made.
00:46:11.13\00:46:16.17
"If Christianity
unite, we can do anything.
00:46:16.20\00:46:21.54
We can pass any
law or any amendment
00:46:21.58\00:46:24.91
and that's exactly
what we intend to do."
00:46:24.95\00:46:31.85
In other words, church
today is becoming more involved.
00:46:31.89\00:46:36.42
Now, let me explain something.
00:46:36.46\00:46:39.53
This was a problem
with our forefathers.
00:46:39.56\00:46:42.86
Our forefathers came over here,
they were looking for a place
00:46:42.90\00:46:45.63
where they could
worship as they wanted to.
00:46:45.67\00:46:48.20
They were God-fearing men women,
00:46:48.24\00:46:49.97
and they came over and
they settled this country,
00:46:50.01\00:46:52.37
and when they settled it,
00:46:52.41\00:46:53.74
they build it on
Christian principles.
00:46:53.78\00:46:56.01
And so when they got to putting
together the Constitution,
00:46:56.04\00:46:59.71
there was some
of them that said,
00:46:59.75\00:47:01.58
"If you're not
Christian, you can't vote."
00:47:01.62\00:47:05.75
And there was a real movement
00:47:05.79\00:47:07.92
in our country to try to exclude
00:47:07.96\00:47:11.23
anybody who was not a
Christian from voting.
00:47:11.26\00:47:15.56
And our President
James Madison fought that.
00:47:15.60\00:47:19.73
And I mean, he fought it
hard, and this is what he said.
00:47:19.77\00:47:23.51
I want you to
listen to what he said,
00:47:23.54\00:47:25.31
"Because fifteen centuries
of ecclesiastical establishment
00:47:25.34\00:47:30.68
has given birth to superstition,
00:47:30.71\00:47:32.78
bigotry, and persecution,"
00:47:32.81\00:47:35.12
said that was
religious persecution,
00:47:35.15\00:47:38.29
"And this bill
could do the same."
00:47:38.32\00:47:42.69
You see there was a
bill introduced into Congress
00:47:42.72\00:47:46.09
to try to say that
only Christians could vote.
00:47:46.13\00:47:49.66
"Who does not see
that if the same authority
00:47:49.70\00:47:52.73
which can establish
Christianity in exclusion
00:47:52.77\00:47:57.54
of all other religions,
00:47:57.57\00:47:59.41
may establish with the same ease
00:47:59.44\00:48:01.68
any particular
sect of Christianity,
00:48:01.71\00:48:04.51
in the exclusion
of all other sects."
00:48:04.55\00:48:07.02
He said, "We can't do this."
00:48:07.05\00:48:09.32
And our forefathers
put together a Constitution
00:48:09.35\00:48:12.79
that folks had
balances and checks in it.
00:48:12.82\00:48:15.96
They put together a Constitution
00:48:15.99\00:48:17.89
so that you and I
could have religious freedom,
00:48:17.93\00:48:20.43
and at the same
time to keep our country
00:48:20.46\00:48:24.37
based on Christian principles.
00:48:24.40\00:48:26.13
This is how they put
together our country.
00:48:26.17\00:48:29.44
And I think they did
a pretty good job of it.
00:48:29.47\00:48:32.81
And I think you and I
need to be very careful.
00:48:32.84\00:48:35.61
But listen, this
is still speaking
00:48:35.64\00:48:37.85
of the two-horned beast.
00:48:37.88\00:48:39.31
Listen to what
it says about him.
00:48:39.35\00:48:41.75
"And he was
granted power to give, "
00:48:41.78\00:48:46.32
what?
00:48:46.35\00:48:47.69
"To give breath to
the image of the beast,
00:48:47.72\00:48:50.46
that the image of the
beast should both speak
00:48:50.49\00:48:53.53
and cause as many
as would not worship
00:48:53.56\00:48:55.70
the image of the
beast should be killed."
00:48:55.73\00:49:00.04
I've told you,
anytime, anytime in history
00:49:00.07\00:49:05.47
that a church has
taken over civil power,
00:49:05.51\00:49:09.74
it is always persecuted.
00:49:09.78\00:49:12.35
Don't care what
church that is, always.
00:49:12.38\00:49:15.42
It says that this two-horned
beast have power to give what?
00:49:15.45\00:49:20.56
Breath to the image, right?
00:49:20.59\00:49:24.26
Had breath.
00:49:24.29\00:49:25.63
If you give breath to something,
00:49:25.66\00:49:27.00
what do you have,
what does that mean?
00:49:27.03\00:49:30.07
Huh?
00:49:30.10\00:49:31.43
Well, it means it came to life.
00:49:31.47\00:49:34.74
You've read the
story of Pinocchio.
00:49:34.77\00:49:37.84
Okay, came to life.
00:49:37.87\00:49:40.84
Here he made an image of a boy,
00:49:40.88\00:49:43.18
and breath was
given and he came to life.
00:49:43.21\00:49:45.11
That's what it's saying
here that they made an image
00:49:45.15\00:49:47.95
to the beast and he had
power to give breath to it,
00:49:47.98\00:49:51.22
and it came to life,
00:49:51.25\00:49:53.66
and it says that he
would cause it to speak, right?
00:49:53.69\00:50:00.46
Speaking cause as
many as would not worship
00:50:00.50\00:50:03.16
the beast should be killed.
00:50:03.20\00:50:04.70
Anytime in God's Word, friend,
that you come across a beast
00:50:04.73\00:50:10.37
and it says
concerning that particular beast
00:50:10.41\00:50:13.88
that it would speak,
that means legislation.
00:50:13.91\00:50:19.71
This what it's talking about,
00:50:19.75\00:50:21.08
beast represent powers, nations.
00:50:21.12\00:50:22.98
So when it says it speaks,
00:50:23.02\00:50:24.92
that means it's
going to legislate.
00:50:24.95\00:50:27.19
And anytime it says
cause, that means enforcement.
00:50:27.22\00:50:32.89
And so the Bible
is saying very clearly
00:50:32.93\00:50:35.26
in this dear country in
which you and I live tonight.
00:50:35.30\00:50:39.93
The day will come in
which you will find church
00:50:39.97\00:50:45.54
will rule and there will
be religious persecution.
00:50:45.57\00:50:49.91
This is what it's saying.
00:50:49.94\00:50:51.95
It says that we
are approaching that,
00:50:51.98\00:50:54.68
that day will come.
00:50:54.72\00:50:58.89
It will speak as a dragon.
00:50:58.92\00:51:02.22
You will have
unification of church and state.
00:51:02.26\00:51:07.53
It would give life to
the image of the beast,
00:51:07.56\00:51:10.30
that it would do
things for that beast.
00:51:10.33\00:51:12.20
Is there anything
happening that way today?
00:51:12.23\00:51:16.37
I hope, dear friend,
that you're not just home
00:51:16.40\00:51:20.34
and you're letting some
of these things pass by,
00:51:20.38\00:51:22.71
and you're not
understanding what's going on.
00:51:22.74\00:51:24.61
Time Magazine,
February 24, 1992.
00:51:27.98\00:51:33.82
"One of his earliest
goals as President, Reagan says,
00:51:33.86\00:51:39.09
was to recognize
00:51:39.13\00:51:40.50
the Vatican as a" church.
00:51:40.53\00:51:47.24
No, "as a state and
make them and ally."
00:51:47.27\00:51:52.14
If you recognize him as a state,
00:51:52.17\00:51:54.08
you have unification of what?
00:51:54.11\00:51:56.88
Church and state.
00:51:56.91\00:52:01.18
See, definitely
movements that way.
00:52:01.22\00:52:05.45
United States,
00:52:05.49\00:52:08.82
probably blessed by God
00:52:08.86\00:52:12.69
like no other country
has ever been blessed by God.
00:52:12.73\00:52:17.83
But it says that it
will speak as a dragon.
00:52:17.87\00:52:22.70
"There are also seven kings.
00:52:22.74\00:52:26.74
Five have fallen,
00:52:26.78\00:52:29.14
one is, the
other has not yet come.
00:52:29.18\00:52:33.15
And when he comes, he
must continue a short time."
00:52:33.18\00:52:37.95
In other words, when it speaks
00:52:37.99\00:52:41.02
as a dragon,
00:52:41.06\00:52:45.26
it's only going
to last a short time.
00:52:45.29\00:52:49.30
You and I are
living right at the time
00:52:49.33\00:52:53.50
when the scripture says
00:52:53.54\00:52:54.87
it's going to speak as a dragon.
00:52:54.90\00:52:58.04
You and I have had the privilege
00:52:58.07\00:53:01.71
of living in a great nation.
00:53:01.74\00:53:03.55
Fortunately,
00:53:06.31\00:53:07.78
the wonderful thing about it is,
00:53:07.82\00:53:10.79
is it's the seventh one.
00:53:10.82\00:53:13.46
We're going to
look at the eighth one,
00:53:13.49\00:53:16.29
but it's all right
down here at the end.
00:53:16.32\00:53:18.26
And at the end it says that
Jesus is going to come back.
00:53:18.29\00:53:23.00
It can't be far off.
00:53:23.03\00:53:25.10
Let me tell you, dear
friend, it won't be long.
00:53:25.13\00:53:30.44
It won't be long
00:53:30.47\00:53:36.95
And we'll be leaving here
00:53:36.98\00:53:43.62
It won't be long
00:53:43.65\00:53:49.92
We'll be going home
00:53:49.96\00:53:56.83
Count the years as months
00:53:56.87\00:54:03.94
Count the months as weeks
00:54:03.97\00:54:10.65
Count the weeks as days
00:54:10.68\00:54:17.85
We'll be going home
00:54:17.89\00:54:25.69
Let us pray.
00:54:34.94\00:54:36.57
Heavenly Father, tonight,
00:54:36.60\00:54:39.67
as we've looked
at this great nation,
00:54:39.71\00:54:43.18
one in which You have
blessed in a very special way.
00:54:43.21\00:54:49.15
Lord, tonight we would pray
00:54:49.18\00:54:52.25
for the
president of our country.
00:54:52.29\00:54:55.86
Lord, when he sit in
there in the Oval Office,
00:54:55.89\00:55:01.50
and he has to make decision
00:55:01.53\00:55:05.53
and he's listened
to all the council,
00:55:05.57\00:55:09.40
and he doesn't
know what he should do,
00:55:09.44\00:55:12.87
we pray, Lord, that
he might turn to you.
00:55:12.91\00:55:16.38
That he might seek You
00:55:16.41\00:55:19.41
in what You
would have him to do.
00:55:19.45\00:55:22.62
We're in the time
of election, Lord.
00:55:22.65\00:55:28.19
These two men are
running as candidates.
00:55:28.22\00:55:31.53
We know that Your words
says that You set up kings
00:55:31.56\00:55:34.66
and You take them down.
00:55:34.70\00:55:37.33
But, Lord, we pray
that You'll bless them,
00:55:37.37\00:55:42.00
that You'll remember
the senators, legislators,
00:55:42.04\00:55:47.68
the governors of our country.
00:55:47.71\00:55:50.08
Give them wisdom,
give them understanding.
00:55:50.11\00:55:54.12
But, Lord, we
pray that as people,
00:55:54.15\00:55:57.72
that each one of us here might
humble ourselves before You,
00:55:57.75\00:56:02.86
that we might seek You,
00:56:02.89\00:56:07.86
that You might heal our land,
00:56:07.90\00:56:11.33
and that our lives
00:56:11.37\00:56:14.00
may be
committed to following You
00:56:14.04\00:56:16.84
in all that we do,
00:56:16.87\00:56:19.34
for this we ask
in Christ's name,
00:56:19.37\00:56:21.91
amen.
00:56:21.94\00:56:24.61
Water can be both
inspiring and awesome.
00:56:24.65\00:56:28.75
As it flows through the
hills, and the mountains,
00:56:28.78\00:56:31.45
water changes the
destiny of every living creature
00:56:31.49\00:56:35.96
it comes in contact with.
00:56:35.99\00:56:38.09
Not a single living thing
00:56:38.13\00:56:40.10
can survive
without water for long.
00:56:40.13\00:56:42.93
But despite its beauty,
00:56:42.96\00:56:44.73
the power of water can
cut channels through rocks
00:56:44.77\00:56:48.10
and change the
landscape forever.
00:56:48.14\00:56:51.41
In John Chapter 7,
00:56:51.44\00:56:53.41
Jesus stood and
cried out, saying,
00:56:53.44\00:56:55.94
"If anyone thirst, let
him come to Me and drink.
00:56:55.98\00:56:59.75
He who believes in
Me," as the scripture said,
00:56:59.78\00:57:03.22
"Out of his heart
00:57:03.25\00:57:04.59
will flow rivers
of living water."
00:57:04.62\00:57:07.39
As He did so many times,
00:57:07.42\00:57:09.82
Jesus explained the
spiritual things of God
00:57:09.86\00:57:12.89
through nature,
like flowing water.
00:57:12.93\00:57:15.76
This living water is
a life changing source
00:57:15.80\00:57:19.70
that can change the
landscape of our lives
00:57:19.73\00:57:22.74
and flow through us to
change the lives of others.
00:57:22.77\00:57:27.84
Folks, we all
need water to live,
00:57:27.88\00:57:32.61
but we also need living water.
00:57:32.65\00:57:35.85
Jesus is that living
water and through His Spirit,
00:57:35.88\00:57:39.82
we can bring life
to those around us.
00:57:39.85\00:57:42.32
The only goal we have at
this ministry is to offer
00:57:42.36\00:57:46.09
living water to all mankind.
00:57:46.13\00:57:49.16
There are
thousands, no, millions
00:57:49.20\00:57:52.87
who still long for this water,
00:57:52.90\00:57:55.34
the living water of life.
00:57:55.37\00:57:57.37
Won't you help us
quench their thirst?
00:57:57.41\00:58:00.38
Please consider what you can do
00:58:00.41\00:58:02.08
for those who still
don't know about Jesus.
00:58:02.11\00:58:04.68
