  1. Okay, so today we uh, today we want to go

  2. back into because last week you were pretty happy. I

  3. thought I was going to get tomatoes after church. I

  4. thought I would be greeted with, you know something, some

  5. kind of but no, you were. You were actually you

  6. were actually kind of happy.

  7. Uh.

  8. And so that was a miracle. And you came back

  9. to church. How many have you came back to church?

  10. What in the world?

  11. Of course you did, You're here? What in the world?

  12. All right, so this is good. So last week I

  13. was I spent a little bit of time. Uh, this

  14. was from this is from first service. So I'll try

  15. to explain this. Right, So last week we launched into

  16. attempting to wash religious pessimism out of our hearts. Part

  17. of this pessimism is because the majority of so many folks,

  18. I don't know who they are, but the majority they

  19. see they see a devolving kingdom. Right, but we get

  20. rescued at the end, and they also see the blessings

  21. of God actually don't really erupt with great excitement until

  22. after the rapture or the second Coming. Okay, so we

  23. got all sorts of blessings over here, but I figure

  24. we don't need them over here.

  25. Do you need blessings over here?

  26. Come on, You're gonna be transformed, You're gonna be in

  27. corrupt the ball, You're never gonna die again. All this

  28. stuff's going on. Okay, but this is after the last day.

  29. The last day is First Corinthians fifteen twenty six.

  30. Okay.

  31. So, and what I was trying to tell you last

  32. week a little bit, and I gave you about six

  33. right scriptures as proof, but I'm gonna give you a

  34. few more today so you'll have double proof. What I

  35. was trying to tell you last week is that we

  36. are not in the last days. We are in the

  37. New days. We are in Kingdom days, we're in the

  38. days of Heaven on Earth days. We're in the new

  39. Heaven and New Earth days. That these are these amazing

  40. days that we're living in. And that means you should

  41. run around pinching yourself, like, how did you get in

  42. this generation?

  43. Yeah? How is it that God called you.

  44. In the most amazing season the planet's ever seen and

  45. you could possibly be depressed? You could allow a negative

  46. thought to exist for longer than two seconds.

  47. I mean, how in the.

  48. World you got to realize you are in God shows

  49. you to be in the most dynamic, exciting, amazing time

  50. period the Earth has ever seen. And you're somewhere out here.

  51. So you're actually out here where a lot of stuff.

  52. I don't know exactly where you are. You could be

  53. over here, but.

  54. You're over here on the timeline where a lot of

  55. the unclean realm has allready been subdued and put under

  56. our feet.

  57. You don't believe it. You just need to think for

  58. a minute. Just think. Use that in Aggan and.

  59. You'll realize what a crazy season we're living in and

  60. how much has allready been done. And not only that,

  61. we have two point eight billion Christians on the planet.

  62. I love somebody, and the rate of conversion right now

  63. is literally mind boggling everywhere, mind boggling everywhere. Indonesia, which

  64. is the largest populous nation of Muslims, is converting to

  65. Christ so fast they can't keep up with it. And

  66. there are churches there now of thirty thousand, sixty thousand,

  67. one hundred thousand member churches in Indonesia.

  68. Iran, you've heard it.

  69. I ran as turning to the Lord at thousands every

  70. single day, every single day.

  71. So what's going on? We're just living in this group.

  72. But I want you to I want you to remember

  73. that what we had here is we had the Mosaic period.

  74. This was the time under Moses, which the Ten Commandments

  75. were only a part of that. The other part that

  76. was relevant of the time under Moses was the tabernacle

  77. and the sacrificial system. You're not familiar with that necessarily,

  78. but that was he break that was Jewish and you

  79. maybe have heard of it, you're aware of it. And

  80. that was how.

  81. They approached God.

  82. They approached God through sacrifice, and they approached God at

  83. the temple, and they approached God through the sacrificial system,

  84. and a priesthood represented the people in approaching God.

  85. So have you heard of that? Good? All right?

  86. So the end at times, everybody say in times, the

  87. end at times that the New Testament talks about is

  88. actually the closure of that period. So that period was

  89. coming into a close. Hebrews nine twenty five says that

  90. it was becoming obsolete and disappearing. And that's because Jesus,

  91. who was the priest, who was the sacrifice, who was

  92. also coming to live within a new temple, right was

  93. inaugurated as one who was starting a brand new kingdom

  94. and one who was ascending into the glory of that kingdom.

  95. Matthew Matthew sixteen twenty eight. In Matthew sixteen twenty eight,

  96. Jesus says, many of you standing here will still be

  97. alive and see the Son of Man come into his kingdom,

  98. come into glory. He was literally quoting out of Daniel

  99. Chapter two, where Daniel sees the Son of Man coming

  100. up to the ancient of days, the sovereign one, receiving

  101. a kingdom, a kingdom that's everlasting, and a king that

  102. will never fade, in a kingdom that can never be

  103. taken away. So he's actually Jesus is quoting. He does

  104. it also in Matthew twenty four. He's quoting out of Daniel.

  105. Even the abomination that causes desolation in the Holy Place.

  106. All of this Jesus is quoting out of Daniel two,

  107. Daniel seven, Daniel nine.

  108. Et cetera.

  109. But this period here ad thirty three, what happened in

  110. eighty thirty three, I may remember.

  111. Laurd was crucified, right.

  112. So eighty thirty three to eighty seventy this is called

  113. the last days, all right, So, and it's about what

  114. would that be about thirty seven years? The Last days

  115. now it's the last days of the Mosaic period. And

  116. at the end of this period eighty seventy, this is

  117. when the temple is destroyed, Jerusalem is destroyed, Israel is judge,

  118. Jerusalem is destroyed, the temple is destroyed, and the sacrificial

  119. system is no more, and never again has there been

  120. a sacrifice, and never again has there been a temple.

  121. So that was the end of that, the end of

  122. that period. That was also the beginning time of this

  123. advancing kingdom of Heaven on earth. And another way of

  124. saying that would be a new creation and a new earth.

  125. Now again, many times religion and religious school of thought,

  126. it puts the new heaven and the new Earth out here,

  127. after the second Coming, after the rapture, after.

  128. The last Day. This is the last day, at the

  129. last trump. Right.

  130. So, but the Bible says First Corinthians fifteen twenty six

  131. says that when he comes back, he's only coming to

  132. conquer one enemy. The other enemies have been put under

  133. his feet. And if they're put under his feet, who

  134. else might they be put under Usen's right, So they're

  135. put under our feet as well, because we are the

  136. body of Christ. He is the head, and we are

  137. the body. Last we check the feet are attached to

  138. the body, and so he's coming back only to conquer

  139. this enemy. That means that all the other enemies, the

  140. demonic powers, the unclean powers, will have been conquered. Which

  141. is why Isaiah sixty five sounds like it does. Look

  142. like it does. We're going to read that Isaiah sixty five.

  143. Why it sounds so amazing is because by the time

  144. we get to the last day, the kingdom has on

  145. the earth has grown significantly, and the right are living

  146. in the abundance of this growing heaven on earth kingdom. Okay,

  147. are you with me so far? Everybody with me so far?

  148. Let's go back over here. I want to give you

  149. some of these right here and talk a little bit.

  150. I've got a couple about the last day again. So again,

  151. these are the last days. These are the last days? Well, okay,

  152. One Peter four to seven. The end of all things

  153. is near. Therefore be alert and sober of a sober

  154. mind for the sake of prayer. First Peter four to seven.

  155. The end of all things is near. They understood, so

  156. they preached this in all their churches. They talked about

  157. this in all of their meetings. Now, part of why

  158. they this was so important to them is because when

  159. the Judgment happened to Jerusalem and the Temple was destroyed,

  160. and it was through Roman armies, it was through Titus,

  161. and it was with fire and with armed warfare in

  162. Jerusalem when that happened, God didn't want any of the

  163. believers to fall prey to that, and so there was

  164. so much writing about this. The Jewish people had become

  165. the enemies of Christianity. Now they aren't our enemies, and

  166. we long for the Jewish people to be restored, and

  167. they will be According to Romans chapter eleven, they will

  168. be restored. And when they're restored, it says grafted back

  169. in Roman chapter eleven. When they're grafted back in, it's

  170. going to be like salvation to the entire world. So

  171. what's going to happen If you think life is good now,

  172. and if you think this is good as it increases,

  173. wait til the Jewish people are brought back in. Because

  174. when they're grafted back in, we're going to see the

  175. fulfillment of Romans chapter eight, where the suns of God

  176. begin to deliver the entire creation out of futility and

  177. out of the curse, and it's going to be like

  178. a crazy time of salvation. You can tell I'm already

  179. talking too loud. Uh so Ugo had to turn it

  180. down a little bit. Who could you turn it up

  181. a little bit? And then I'll talk quieter. This is

  182. a it's a reverse psychology thing that we go through.

  183. If I think I'm loud, I get quiet here that

  184. hear the ring? Now there's a little ring.

  185. Hear that. You didn't hear the ring? I can hear it.

  186. But no, I'm gonna calm down so hard.

  187. You want to try this sometimes, be still my soul,

  188. he's still sucking Peter Chapter three. Above all, you must

  189. understand that in the last days, scoffers will come scoffing

  190. and following their own evil desires. They will say, where

  191. is this coming? He promised? Now, there are three kinds

  192. of comings in the New Testament.

  193. Oh I like it?

  194. See how better that is?

  195. Isn't that? God? Keep it loud like that?

  196. Oh? Yeah, maybe louder I don't know about there's three.

  197. There's three comings in the New Testament. One is a

  198. coming back. That's generally the only one we talk about

  199. in evangelical churches. We don't understand. There's other comings. There's

  200. another coming. That's the coming that Daniel talked about, and

  201. Jesus himself talked about it in Matthew sixteen twenty eight,

  202. coming into his kingdom. That's the second kind of coming,

  203. coming into his kingdom. There's a third coming that we

  204. get confused with these comings. The third coming is coming

  205. in judgment. There's a third coming. The third coming is

  206. coming in judgment. As Jesus talked in Matthew twenty four,

  207. he talked about the temple and not one stone will

  208. remain upon another, and he talked about the overthrow of

  209. the temple, and he was talking about a judgment coming.

  210. What he talked about in Matthew twenty four and Luke

  211. twenty one as a judgment coming. He's talking about the

  212. end of the Mosaic period, and he's talking about judging

  213. the Jewish people who have killed the prophets and rejected

  214. the Messiah. That's the coming he's talking about, is a

  215. coming of judgment. That's Matthew twenty four. That's First Peter.

  216. That's Second Peter three. What we're reading right now, So

  217. you'll notice that they're asking about a coming and a

  218. coming that was promised. Why is the coming promised? Because

  219. the coming, the new believers knew that they can't be

  220. two temples. The new believers knew, by the Holy Ghost,

  221. there's only going to be one temple, and it's this one,

  222. it's not that one. That one is going to be judged,

  223. and it's going to become obsolete, and it's going to

  224. pass away. This is Hebrews eight, Hebrews nine, et cetera,

  225. et cetera. So and Paul is teaching this. They understood

  226. this to be true. And so this second coming or

  227. this coming of the Lord is a coming in judgment.

  228. So they say, where is this coming that he promised?

  229. Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on like the

  230. beginning of creation. But they deliberately forget that long ago,

  231. by God's word, the heavens came into being, and the

  232. earth was formed out of water and by water, and

  233. by these waters also the world that at that time

  234. was deluged and destroyed. Oh so we're talking about a

  235. delusion and a destruction. We're talking about a coming of judgment.

  236. By that same word, the present heavens and earth are

  237. reserved for fire.

  238. Oh, there's a fire coming.

  239. There's a fire judgment coming, and they are kept for

  240. the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly. These

  241. are those who have resisted the Gospel, and they have

  242. crucified the Messiah, and they have put to death the prophets.

  243. But do not forget this one thing, dear friends. A

  244. day with the Lord is like a thousand years, and

  245. a thousand years are.

  246. Like a day.

  247. Now he's trying to tell them be patient, be patient,

  248. be patient, be patient.

  249. This is going to happen. Now. He's trying to tell them.

  250. To be patient because there was a great movement in

  251. the spirit realm afoot to mislead believers, to draw believers away,

  252. even to draw believers to false profits, even to Christ

  253. who would appear and say, come out here, come out here, Oh, the.

  254. Christ is out there.

  255. Because if they could be drawn away at the right hour,

  256. then they would come under the They lose of judgment

  257. that God was using Titus to meet out on Jerusalem,

  258. and were told time and time again that they were

  259. warned so that they would not come under that judgment.

  260. And for Theetsalonians five says, you know the times and

  261. the seasons, you know about this wrath but you are

  262. not children in the brath. You're not destined for wrath.

  263. The believers were believers who were blessed to be led

  264. of God into a place called Pella. They all went

  265. to a place called Pella, and in that city they were.

  266. Delivered and preserved. So but this is these are scriptures.

  267. About, you know, the warnings of those things coming. The

  268. Lord is not slow about keeping his promises. Understand slowness. Instead,

  269. he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish,

  270. but everyone to come to repentance.

  271. But the day of the Lord.

  272. Now, this destruction that came upon the Temple and upon

  273. Jerusalem and the sacrificial system was called the Day of

  274. the Lord as well as it was called the Great Tribulation.

  275. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief.

  276. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will

  277. be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done

  278. in it laid bare. And it's the focus is not

  279. the global earth that focuses the land. And if you

  280. look at the translations, especially in the Book of Revelation,

  281. you're going to find and in Matthew twenty four, when

  282. it speaks most translators translated the earth, but it's actually

  283. the land, and the tribes of the land will see

  284. him coming in judgment. It's the Jewish land, it's Israel.

  285. So the day of the Lord will come like a thief.

  286. The heavens will disappear. The heavens will disappear. This refers

  287. a lot to where in Deuteronomy thirty two we find

  288. a passage about Genesis chapter eleven. In Genesis chapter eleven,

  289. God divides the nations. Genesis nine is the flood. They

  290. come out of the arc, and then there's the table

  291. of nations. He divides the nations up and there's like

  292. seventy nations here. But in Genesis chapter eleven, they've rebelled.

  293. They've built a temple edifice, a zigarett, a temple edifice,

  294. and they're already seeking false gods in Genesis chapter eleven,

  295. and God comes in the midst of them and he

  296. divides them up because they're in rebellion, and he scatters

  297. them across the earth. And when he does this, he

  298. assigns Elohim to them.

  299. Eight and nine.

  300. There's other passages talk about these lesser gods. Sixty nine

  301. Elohim were assigned to these rebellious nations to be governors

  302. over these nations, like the Prince of Persia referred to

  303. in Daniel chapter ten, and like Daniel, and like.

  304. Paul would have referred to.

  305. Paul referred to this in Ephesians chapter six ten through eighteen.

  306. He understood that these rulers over the nations were the

  307. ones that were being judged, and they were losing their

  308. authority to hold the people. And God was delivering the

  309. people out from under these what he called principalities and powers,

  310. and Jesus was being exalted in all of the nations

  311. were being brought in to the kingdom. And that was

  312. happening even right here in the beginning, as there was

  313. this initial launch of the Kingdom of Heaven. So this

  314. judgment that was taking place here, it was simultaneous with

  315. the exaltation of Jesus the last atom into the heavens.

  316. I shouldn't do it over here, forget my hand, forget

  317. Jesus being exalted over here in the heavens. And Revelation

  318. twelve seven through eleven talk about this. Actually, Revelation twelve,

  319. verse one two, it talks about the one third of

  320. the angels, and then Revelation twelve seven through eleven talks

  321. about the war in heaven where the dragon is cast

  322. down and cast out of the heavens. So what we're

  323. seeing is these Elohim who were ruling over the nations.

  324. And it says here that only Israel or Jacob was

  325. reserved as God's nation. So God reserved And I'm going fast,

  326. come to Kingdom School of Transformation, register and we go deep.

  327. But I'm trying to help you. God bless you. So

  328. if you think about this, think about this, even as

  329. you you know, all of us in our understanding of

  330. the Old Testament, what we see is Israel against the nations,

  331. and all the nations against Israel. We see Jehovah or

  332. Yahweh against all of the gods, and all of the

  333. gods against Yahweh. It's because all of the other nations,

  334. the elohem that they were turned over to, were apostate.

  335. They turned apostate, they turned against God, they governed in unrighteousness,

  336. and they led the nations into idolatry so that they

  337. could control them. And they led them apostate, into witchcraft

  338. and into Satanism and everything that was unclean. All right

  339. with me, so far, and so even here in two Peter,

  340. where he says that this judgment that's going to take

  341. place as Christ is exalted, there's a judgment not only

  342. on Israel, but everything is being shaken. And the full

  343. consummation of the exaltation of the second atom, the last atom,

  344. as he comes into his glory, is that those elo him.

  345. And they were called in the Bible. In many places,

  346. they were called the stars, they were called the host

  347. of heaven. For instance, in Deuteronomy seventeen, they're instructed, do

  348. not bow down to the host of heaven. And so

  349. look at that. You can see that. So what we

  350. see is that in this judgment of the exaltation of Jesus,

  351. those Elohim were cast down. They were judged because of

  352. the way they led the nations. They were judged and

  353. cast down. And now Jesus begins to plunder the lost

  354. out of every nation, and he begins to bring all

  355. of them into the kingdom. And it's really a reverse

  356. of Babel. Even the day of Pentecost was a reverse.

  357. Today's the day of Pentecost by the one everybody shouts

  358. shabbat this this is the fiftieth day after Passover. Even

  359. the Day of Pentecost was I shouldn't say even. I mean,

  360. the Day of Pentecost was a reverse of Babel, reverse

  361. of Babel. And it's we're told in Acts chapter two.

  362. We're told in Acts chapter two even that there were

  363. people there from every nation under the sun. Acts chapter two,

  364. verse five. Now there were Jews residing in Jerusalem, devout

  365. men from every nation under heaven.

  366. Did you hear that? Now here's the deal.

  367. Back here in about eighty thirty two, Jesus is giving

  368. them this warning. He's telling them what's coming. It might

  369. have been eighty thirty two point five. It was someone there.

  370. He's giving them all the warnings. That's Matthew twenty three,

  371. Matthew twenty four, Luke twenty one.

  372. We're going to read it in a minute.

  373. He's giving them all these warnings over here, and he's

  374. telling them that first the Gospel has to go out

  375. to every nation, and then the end will come. We're

  376. over here waiting for the Gospel to go out to

  377. every nation and then the end will come.

  378. Thinking that's a sign of the end. It's not. It

  379. was a sign of this end.

  380. Before the Temple was destroyed, God was re enacting a

  381. very well choreographed reverse babble.

  382. And through the dispersing of.

  383. Israel earlier, through their sins in the every nation, God

  384. had seeded Jewish people in every nation on the globe.

  385. They had come together for Passover, and they had lingered

  386. with their family through Pentecost. On the day of Pentecost,

  387. which is the same exact day that God visited Moses

  388. on Mount Sinai with fire and gave him the Law.

  389. On the same exact day on Pentecost, God visits the

  390. one hundred and twenty in the upper room and pours

  391. out fire and an indwelling word and a glory that

  392. they couldn't hide under a veil. This is the day

  393. of Pentecost, and he launches the church. And then he

  394. pours them out into the crowd. And in the crowd

  395. there is somebody there from every nation under the sun.

  396. And they all hear them speaking of the glories of

  397. God and the resurrection of Jesus in their own tongue.

  398. Guess what.

  399. Then they all went home. Then they all went home.

  400. They went to Africa, They went to they went to

  401. Italy existed, I'm trying to remember what it was called.

  402. They went to Spain, they went to Italy, they went

  403. the Cappadocian, they went to cre they went everywhere. They

  404. all went back. And guess what they did when they

  405. went back. They preached the gospel. They took the gospel

  406. with them. The gospel went out to the entire world.

  407. It doesn't mean we aren't supposed to evangelize. It doesn't

  408. mean we're done. We aren't done till the fullness of

  409. the gentiles come in. The fullness of the gentiles haven't

  410. come in. Israel will be saved when the fullness of

  411. the Gentiles come in. This is Romans chapter eleven. Israel

  412. will be saved. This is how we know that the

  413. Lord's not coming this afternoon. Now, he might come for

  414. you this afternoon. He might even come for me this heaven.

  415. No, I don't know.

  416. But nonetheless, the reason we know that he's not come

  417. this afternoon and we are on this heaven on earth

  418. trajectory is because the fullness of the Gentiles hasn't come

  419. in yet, and he has not gathered back or grafted

  420. back in the Jewish people. Before this is over, He's

  421. going to graft in the Jewish people. And he says,

  422. when he grabs in the Jewish people. It's going to

  423. be like what I did tell you, salvation for the

  424. entire globe. Now I'm going to read to you what

  425. that means in a moment, because we got a close.

  426. We're already on our first closing. I need the piano

  427. playing to remind me because we have to quit early

  428. today because we have we're launching all of our summer

  429. connected groups and house parties and all that fun stuff,

  430. and we want you to be a part of it

  431. and share in particul of our community.

  432. Amen, Where was I Did I ever finish?

  433. Second?

  434. Peter?

  435. No, I never did. Since everything will be destroyed this

  436. way Verse eleven. What kind of people you ought to be?

  437. You ought to live holy in godly lives. As you

  438. look forward to the day of the Lord or the

  439. Day of God, remember that's what the tribulation was called.

  440. And speed it's coming. That day will bring about destruction

  441. of the heavens by fire. He brings it up again.

  442. Everything's going to be rearranged. It's a new heaven and

  443. a new Earth. All these Elohim are going to be

  444. judged and cast down, and the plunder of all the

  445. nations is going to be given over to Jesus and

  446. the elements will melt in heat. But in keeping with

  447. his promise, the promise of Jesus about this coming, there's

  448. three kinds of comings. This is a coming of judgment.

  449. In keeping with his promise, we are looking forward to

  450. a new heaven and a new Earth where righteousness dwells. Now,

  451. I'm going to go over and read in our first closing,

  452. and I got to do this fast because I'm all

  453. really in big trouble. We can't go to Matthew twenty four.

  454. You got to come back. Do you hate me yet? No?

  455. Oh good, you gotta come back then, all right. So

  456. Isaiah sixty five, I want you to see this. Isaiah

  457. sixty five.

  458. Is a figurative and a pictorial fulfillment of what we

  459. live in as New Covenant believers, because according to Galatians

  460. four twenty six and isa and Hebrews Galatians four twenty

  461. six and Hebrews twelve, we already approach Zion. We already

  462. come to the Zion above, the Jerusalem that is above.

  463. But I want you to see this real quick, for

  464. be whole, like create a new having it at new Earth,

  465. and the former things will not be remembered to come

  466. to mind, But be glad and rejoice forever in what

  467. I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicing. First

  468. there's a new Jerusalem. That's the Jerusalem we approach. Then

  469. there will be a fulfillment in a literal Jerusalem of

  470. all that I'm about to read.

  471. When they're grafted back in, and there will no longer

  472. be heard in her, The.

  473. Voice of weeping or the sound of crying, no longer

  474. will be there be in it an infant who only

  475. lives a few days, or an old person who does

  476. not live out his days. For the youth will die

  477. at the age of one hundred, and the one who

  478. does not reach the age of one hundred will be

  479. thought to be cursed. So this is before the last Day.

  480. People are still dying. This is like the last Hour. Right,

  481. people are still dying. But Israel's been grafted back in,

  482. and the blessings of righteousness are now covering the entire earth.

  483. The knowledge of the glory of God is covering the

  484. earth like the waters cover the sea. For the youth

  485. will diet one hundred. The one who does not reach

  486. a hundred will be thought to be a curse. They

  487. will build houses and inhabit them. They will plant vineyards

  488. and eat their fruit. They will not build in another

  489. inhabit They will not plant and another eat. For as

  490. the life of a tree, the lifetime of the tree,

  491. so will be the days of my people. And my

  492. chosen ones will fully enjoy the work of their hands.

  493. An under translation says, they'll wear out the.

  494. Work of their hands.

  495. They will not labor in vain or give birth to

  496. children a disaster. For they are descendants of these that

  497. are blessed by the Lord, and their descendants with them.

  498. And they will come to pass that. Before they call,

  499. I will answer. While they are still speaking, I will

  500. listen the wolf in the lamb. That's why I'm a pastor.

  501. The wolf and the lamb will graze together. Now listen,

  502. listen the shaloma. During this period, the shalom of the

  503. Lord covers the earth so power that violence is extracted

  504. out of nature. This is before the last day, before

  505. the last day, while people are still dying.

  506. The shaloma the Lord.

  507. Because the Kingdom is righteousness, shaloam, righteousness, peace and joy.

  508. The Kingdom is righteousness, peace, shalom, and joy. That's what

  509. the kingdom is. Well as it grows, it advances, and

  510. we become glorious, and he puts every enemy under our feet.

  511. Even before he comes back, the wolf and the lamb

  512. will graze together, and the lion will eat straw like

  513. the aux.

  514. Oh, the lion won't.

  515. Eat meat anymore. Oh, there's going to be a shift

  516. in the earth. The earth is going to be coming

  517. under restoration because of the suns of God, delivering the

  518. earth out of futility and out of the curse, even

  519. before he comes back. When he comes back, he comes

  520. back to put death under his feet and to consummate

  521. that which he's already begune through us the Church as sin.

  522. This is why, in so many ways it's called the

  523. Kingdom of Heaven. Why it's called the Kingdom of Heaven

  524. on earth. This is why so much of our focus

  525. is supposed to be on Thy Kingdom. Come Thy will

  526. be done on earth as it is in heaven, because

  527. this is the season for that. It's actually possible. This

  528. is not something we've made up. It's not make believe.

  529. It's not a hope to or maybe this is a truth.

  530. I need all the connect leaders to go to your tables,

  531. get your goodies ready. We've got goodies at all the tables,

  532. blessings and refreshments we're distributing this morning. And as we close,

  533. we're gonna close rejoicing, right, we're gonna close rejoicing that

  534. we participate in so much victory that we've been born

  535. in this crazy generation and we're a family together.

  536. So uh, this is all about you.

  537. Know, the summer is short, like summer short, Well, we

  538. get four weeks of sunshine something that I don't know,

  539. but you know, summer is short. But we've got these

  540. groups where we can connect. And it's not like you

  541. got to it's not like anything is overdone. We're not

  542. trying to get every moment of your life. But we're

  543. believing that these fellowship groups and the house parties and

  544. like we've got conspire conspire over here. Conspiracy night. It's

  545. only happening one night, right, one night. We've got God

  546. and guns and you can bring your own coffee God

  547. guns and that's you know, that's they're gonna meet and

  548. shoot and have fun. It's an activity group focused group.

  549. Some of these groups.

  550. Are higher on fellowship and community than they are on

  551. Bibles study. And that's okay because it's summer and we're

  552. gonna have fun together. So all the house parties we went.

  553. We have five house parties. We want you to sign

  554. up for those. You can go to all five if

  555. you want to. It's a ton of food and then

  556. it's fun and it's being together and its fellowship and

  557. it's hanging out right. So we've got those. Then we've

  558. got the ladies meetings. We got the men's Bible study.

  559. We have the Hispanic meetings, Hispanic ladies, we've got over here,

  560. we've got a mom's group at the Davis's gorgeous home

  561. around the swimming pool. You don't want to miss that.

  562. Sign up over there, Beth. And he's got abide and create.

  563. So all this stuff's going on, I'm gonna dismiss. We're

  564. gonna dismiss with a shout because you are a victorious generation.

  565. So on the count of three, I'm gonna dismiss with

  566. a shout, and then I'm gonna.

  567. Disperse you like the children in the Israel were dispersed.

  568. Go to some of these.

  569. We want you to meet the people, say hi, sign up,

  570. or get information, find out if there's childcare, whatever you know,

  571. do that and then uh then We've got lunch for you.

  573. So stay in fellowship. You don't have to be in

  574. a hurry. On the count of three, on the kind

  575. of on the kind of one three two one, go

  576. forth and conquer, go forth in God, go forth victorious.
