  1. [SPEAKER_00]: So we're on that next page where it says Satan's aim will be on God's chosen people Israel.

  2. [SPEAKER_00]: You got that one?

  3. [SPEAKER_00]: Everybody find that one?

  4. [SPEAKER_00]: So when I got a page and a half, we'll get done before 11.

  5. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan's aim.

  6. [SPEAKER_00]: What the enemy has the purpose, honey?

  7. [SPEAKER_00]: Right now he's got a purpose.

  8. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan's saying very, very wise.

  9. [SPEAKER_00]: Do you ever think about this, angels have a will, right?

  10. [SPEAKER_00]: You know, they chose to fight against God, you know?

  11. [SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, they got this will, they got a mind if you will, an intellect, communication, a lot of things that angels can do.

  12. [SPEAKER_00]: I always see it this way.

  13. [SPEAKER_00]: Angels are learning as they go, too.

  14. [SPEAKER_00]: Even Satan is learning.

  15. [SPEAKER_00]: He's been doing this a long time.

  16. [SPEAKER_00]: He's been watching people.

  17. [SPEAKER_00]: deception.

  18. [SPEAKER_00]: He's mastered his enemy and how to control.

  19. [SPEAKER_00]: And so one of the things we're going to learn tonight is Satan hates that which God loves.

  20. [SPEAKER_00]: for right now is the world.

  21. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan hates human beings, he hates you.

  22. [SPEAKER_00]: That's why we've been teaching young people here.

  23. [SPEAKER_00]: Listen, he wants to deceive you, he wants you dead, he wants you to perish, he wants you to reject God, all that.

  24. [SPEAKER_00]: So in the tribulation time period that we're dealing with, there will be a targeting again that Satan has in Revelation 12 and he's gonna be going after the nation of Israel.

  25. [SPEAKER_00]: And because of that, we know God sees Israel as we learn Tuesday morning, this is my son, God calls Israel his son, you go tell Pharaoh, you have my son, they're my possession.

  26. [SPEAKER_00]: And so Israel is very important, and God has not replaced Israel with the church.

  27. [SPEAKER_00]: Israel is still paramount in God's sight because all of these prophecies will be fulfilled and Satan will be ultimately going after the nation of Israel because of what they even will become.

  28. [SPEAKER_00]: in this paragraph from Hayman to hit, I did mention Hayman before, I didn't realize that to right now Mike.

  29. [SPEAKER_00]: So Hayman to hit, Laura Satan used people and nations who attempt to genocide the nation of Israel.

  30. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan's desire has been to destroy Israel.

  31. [SPEAKER_00]: His vision will continue throughout the seven year trip.

  32. [SPEAKER_00]: God calls it Jacob's trouble, Jeremiah 30 verse 7, Satan will use the Antichrist to attempt to fulfill this goal.

    Jeremiah 30:7

  33. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's another one of those terms that you say, well, let's Jacob's trouble.

  34. [SPEAKER_00]: Jacob's trouble was seven year tribulation.

  35. [SPEAKER_00]: So now you have terms that go along with the identity.

  36. [SPEAKER_00]: So we're not going through Jacob's trouble right now because we're not Jacob.

  37. [SPEAKER_00]: Really deep, what was that deep or what?

  38. [SPEAKER_00]: But we think, well, we're Jacob.

  39. [SPEAKER_00]: And then you're not that's Israel.

  40. [SPEAKER_00]: Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel, who had how many sons?

  41. [SPEAKER_00]: They became the 12 tribe of Israel.

  42. [SPEAKER_00]: So Jacob, when God used that term, I believe number one, he's talking about all 12 tribes.

  43. [SPEAKER_00]: not just the north of the south, so all 12 tribes are included, so also with Jacob and his name, it's almost like his name is used in times of showing Israel your rebelling.

  44. [SPEAKER_00]: So it's another thought of when he uses Jacob, you're in rebellion, you've been going against me when he used that term in the profit, so that was free.

  45. [SPEAKER_00]: Number one, the antichrist.

  46. [SPEAKER_00]: We'll deceive the Jews by creating a covenant with promises, promises when he promises peace.

  47. [SPEAKER_00]: Dan, you nine, seven, 27, we already covered that.

  48. [SPEAKER_00]: So I don't have to go through that again, because you remember we went through that.

  49. [SPEAKER_00]: This begins the seven-year tribulation.

  50. [SPEAKER_00]: The Jews will enjoy their worship in the third temple for three and a half years.

  51. [SPEAKER_00]: Why three and a half years?

  52. [SPEAKER_00]: I've taught you this.

  53. [SPEAKER_00]: Why it will Israel only be able to have their freedom

  54. [SPEAKER_00]: in this third temple to worship, and to sacrifice, et cetera, why only three and a half years?

  55. [SPEAKER_00]: What's going to happen?

  56. [SPEAKER_00]: That's the creation of the temple.

  57. [SPEAKER_00]: So he's going to desecrate that temple and cause something to stop.

  58. [SPEAKER_00]: the sacrifices, right?

  59. [SPEAKER_00]: So I don't want anything to remind the world of Jesus.

  60. [SPEAKER_00]: So shut all of that system down, and that's what he will be part of.

  61. [SPEAKER_00]: So they will have this freedom for three and a half years.

  62. [SPEAKER_00]: And again, this covenant that he's going to have is about peace, peace, and then sudden destruction comes and that's in our notes in just a little bit.

  63. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's how St. Works.

  64. [SPEAKER_00]: He says, I'm going to give you this,

  65. [SPEAKER_00]: But ultimately, he has his own drive and what he intends to do.

  66. [SPEAKER_00]: Number two, the Antichrist will cause their sacrifices stop there it is at the halfway point of the trip.

  67. [SPEAKER_00]: He would desecrate the temple.

  68. [SPEAKER_00]: He will denounce the God of the Jews by declaring he himself is God.

  69. [SPEAKER_00]: We saw that in Daniel 9, 27, Matthew 24, second-fest Sloanians 24, all of these verses we have already read, covered or highlighted.

  70. [SPEAKER_00]: And so I won't need to go back and rehearse it.

  71. [SPEAKER_00]: So as you're seeing, we're trying to give a summary here of some of the things that we learned.

  72. [SPEAKER_00]: And for teachers, those who are teaching at Wana, Sunday School, whatever, do we want to remind you of something?

  73. [SPEAKER_00]: We think once we said, said it, everybody knows it.

  74. [SPEAKER_00]: That's not true.

  75. [SPEAKER_00]: So what we have to remember is we have to go over the same concept, maybe at a different angle, to try to get it more solid.

  76. [SPEAKER_00]: And so hopefully by the time I'm done, you are going to have certain things in your mind that you may not have had before.

  77. [SPEAKER_00]: Like you learned tonight, somebody's trouble, who is it?

  78. [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.

  79. [SPEAKER_00]: Some didn't know that.

  80. [SPEAKER_00]: You might have heard Jacob's trouble.

  81. [SPEAKER_00]: What is that?

  82. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, now you have it and define and now it's sinking in.

  83. [SPEAKER_00]: So hopefully if a teacher gets up and says, talk about Jacob's trouble, all that's tribulation.

  84. [SPEAKER_00]: Good job.

  85. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's what we do.

  86. [SPEAKER_00]: So we're rehearsing some of these things.

  87. [SPEAKER_00]: So hopefully it's a little more solid.

  88. [SPEAKER_00]: So immediately you're going to be thinking three and a half years.

  89. [SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, there's going to be three and a half.

  90. [SPEAKER_00]: not as bad, second, three and a half.

  91. [SPEAKER_00]: I was going to be really, really bad.

  92. [SPEAKER_00]: The desecration.

  93. [SPEAKER_00]: What is Jesus' message in Matthew 24 when the desecration of the temple happens?

  94. [SPEAKER_00]: What does He tell the Jews?

  95. [SPEAKER_00]: Get out of there.

  96. [SPEAKER_00]: Now you know that.

  97. [SPEAKER_00]: So when you read that, you're not going to say, when are we supposed to leave Jerusalem?

  98. [SPEAKER_00]: What's not you?

  99. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not talking to you.

  100. [SPEAKER_00]: It has nothing to do with you.

  101. [SPEAKER_00]: It has to do with them.

  102. [SPEAKER_00]: So we pull out.

  103. [SPEAKER_00]: So in some preacher that hasn't discovered the Bible yet in Matthew 24 and they'll come here and they'll say, no don't you forget there's going to be two in the field one taken.

  104. [SPEAKER_00]: One left behind.

  105. [SPEAKER_00]: You don't want to be left behind.

  106. [SPEAKER_00]: You want to be raptured.

  107. [SPEAKER_00]: You're going to, oh, that poor dumb soul.

  108. [SPEAKER_00]: He hasn't discovered a Bible yet.

  109. [SPEAKER_00]: He still thinks that's all about the rapture and it's nothing to do with rapture.

  110. [SPEAKER_00]: Has everything to do with Jesus' second coming back to this earth?

  111. [SPEAKER_00]: So we have to keep the Word of God within its compartment.

  112. [SPEAKER_00]: What is he talking about and keep it there rather than saying, why have a theory over here?

  113. [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to pull this verse and teach it.

  114. [SPEAKER_00]: It's like, no, stay within the box and you'll do really well.

  115. [SPEAKER_00]: And the Bible is a lot more simple that way.

  116. [SPEAKER_00]: Number three, and a crisis that will then roll the world from Jerusalem and that's what you were bringing up this matter of the kingdom, the capital of the nation of Israel.

  117. [SPEAKER_00]: will be a Israel.

  118. [SPEAKER_00]: He would demand their worship or else they will die.

  119. [SPEAKER_00]: Revelation 13, that's where the mark of the beast and to take his name or his mark.

  120. [SPEAKER_00]: The idol is created all of that for the people.

  121. [SPEAKER_00]: The worship just like, then that happened in the Old Testament that there was a great big image that was created and everybody had the bow down.

  122. [SPEAKER_00]: Nebuchadnezzar, right?

  123. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's Babylon.

  124. [SPEAKER_00]: So isn't it interesting?

  125. [SPEAKER_00]: We got talks in the revelation how the empire Babylon is going to be coming back up and running.

  126. [SPEAKER_00]: So one thing about history, genesis teaches this pattern throughout the scripture.

  127. [SPEAKER_00]: And then Daniel goes through the same thing.

  128. [SPEAKER_00]: We have Babylon in Genesis 11.

  129. [SPEAKER_00]: And then we have Babylon on.

  130. [SPEAKER_00]: And now we have it again in the revelation and so Satan doesn't have any imagination.

  131. [SPEAKER_00]: So Jesus warns the Jews to flee Judea at that time, Matthew 24, 16, 22, and so now you have these verses to say, oh, that's where that's at, that's my intent.

  132. [SPEAKER_00]: So number four, at that time, Satan will be cast out of heaven.

  133. [SPEAKER_00]: This is something I brought up, and so that's there in chapter 12.

  134. [SPEAKER_00]: When with absolute hate towards God, Satan will direct all his attention on the nation of Israel to destroy her, he will attempt to genocide the nation while they flee from Judea, gobble intervened by protecting this remnant in Revelation 12 as the whole chapter.

  135. [SPEAKER_00]: The Zayn by remember the description that Jesus gives

  136. [SPEAKER_00]: that what what what Satan is going to do to those Jews who are fleeing to we believe Petra, what is Satan going to try to do?

  137. [SPEAKER_00]: Do you want to remember the analogy or the metaphor?

  138. [SPEAKER_00]: Flood.

  139. [SPEAKER_00]: So Satan's going to somehow bring a flood.

  140. [SPEAKER_00]: Now, whether that is literal water or whether it is a flood of something is not clear.

  141. [SPEAKER_00]: But somehow there's going to be this flood that is going to be attacking these people that are running day and day out until they finally have made it to their destination and what are they going to eat?

  142. [SPEAKER_00]: What are they going to drink?

  143. [SPEAKER_00]: How are they going to sustain themselves?

  144. [SPEAKER_00]: This is really something to observe because this is, it's a middle of the trip.

  145. [SPEAKER_00]: They're fleeing the wrath of God, and while they're fleeing the wrath of God, Satan is gonna send a flood after these people.

  146. [SPEAKER_00]: It's like no rest.

  147. [SPEAKER_00]: They're constantly wondering, am I gonna die today?

  148. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm being attacked.

  149. [SPEAKER_00]: So God miraculously says he's gonna open up the earth, he's gonna swallow that flood, and they're gonna be just fine.

  150. [SPEAKER_00]: And then on top of that, God is going to not any say, I'm going to get you to go out into this wilderness, but you're going to be there for three and a half years, what are you going to eat drink?

  151. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, in the Old Testament, God, yeah, God's going to feed them.

  152. [SPEAKER_00]: So in the Old Testament, Moses hit a rock and he got water.

  153. [SPEAKER_00]: And then he rained down mana.

  154. [SPEAKER_00]: I think Dennis brought that up in the toothy morning group.

  155. [SPEAKER_00]: He said, wouldn't it be cool if God gives a mana again?

  156. [SPEAKER_00]: of you really cool, because whatever was in that manna was everything the human body needed to be sustained.

  157. [SPEAKER_00]: And the protein, the carbs, just everything necessary was because this is this beautiful manna that came down from heaven.

  158. [SPEAKER_00]: I'll reference that maybe Sunday morning to show the Old Testament.

  159. [SPEAKER_00]: We have this physical manna that came down that sustained their lives.

  160. [SPEAKER_00]: And in John chapter 6, Jesus said, I am the bread of life, and just like your father's received, man, it came down from heaven, that's me, spiritually, I came down from heaven, and whoever consumes me, I'm going to give you eternal life, not just temporary life.

    John 6 chapter mention

  161. [SPEAKER_00]: So the Old Testament is the physical, the New Testament is the good job.

  162. [SPEAKER_00]: Number five, the devil will change his aim by pointing his direction towards the 144,000 Jewish men who are spreading the gospel around the world, say it will again fail to kill them because God has sealed them, and therefore Satan can not touch them.

  163. [SPEAKER_00]: Revelation 141 to five is where God gives the greatest description of the 144,000.

  164. [SPEAKER_00]: Today, I might remember where the first reference to the 144,000

  165. [SPEAKER_00]: Jews, 12,000 out of every, all 12 tribes is found.

  166. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

  167. [SPEAKER_00]: It might be, but the 144,000 Jewish men in the revelation are first mentioned in this chapter, and then 14 gives more of the detail.

  168. [SPEAKER_00]: Very good, it's chapter seven.

  169. [SPEAKER_00]: It's really powerful because it says 12,000 of each tribe, you know, 12,000 of each tribe, and so you have 104 or 4,000, but it doesn't give description yet.

  170. [SPEAKER_00]: The only thing it goes into next is John, it's like they put God pulled back and chose the end of the tribulation.

  171. [SPEAKER_00]: because Benny says, I'm going to show you a host of people that nobody can number of every language, private, et cetera, staining me for the God with these white robes.

  172. [SPEAKER_00]: He goes, who are they?

  173. [SPEAKER_00]: And John says, I don't know what I did with these people, who are they, you have to tell me.

  174. [SPEAKER_00]: He goes, these are those who were saved out of the great tribulation.

  175. [SPEAKER_00]: showing that there will be millions of people saved during the trip, sadly many of them will die, but there are going to be a lot of people getting saved, and interestingly, that is mentioned right after the 144,000 Jewish.

  176. [SPEAKER_00]: sealed people.

  177. [SPEAKER_00]: I believe that showing they're going to be witnessing and leaving people with the Lord.

  178. [SPEAKER_00]: So when you go to 14th chapter, so 714, 7 plus 7th.

  179. [SPEAKER_00]: So you get the two chapters down that way.

  180. [SPEAKER_00]: So 14, he says these are actually Jewish men that have not defiled themselves with women.

  181. [SPEAKER_00]: and they have the word in their mouth.

  182. [SPEAKER_00]: So they're going around and sharing.

  183. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's where you get the description of these men.

  184. [SPEAKER_00]: So Dave said, you know, he would, I forget where he is, some airport, and he had a chance to share the gospel with some young.

  185. [SPEAKER_00]: Jewish men, and I remember him saying, wouldn't be off some, if the raptor happened, and maybe I gave the gospel of Christ to a young Jewish man, maybe they're going to be one of the 144,000 Jews that, you know, a pretty cool story, and you never know.

  186. [SPEAKER_00]: You had your hand up earlier, Dave.

  187. [SPEAKER_00]: And so, yeah, Satan knows all this stuff too.

  188. [SPEAKER_00]: And so whether it is a literal flood or that symbolic either way, it's real and the purpose is to kill as to kill these Jews, absolutely, absolutely right.

  189. [SPEAKER_00]: Good.

  190. [SPEAKER_00]: So I think there's a reason God in both texts says this, I have my seal on them.

  191. [SPEAKER_00]: By having his seal on them makes them untouchable, but there will be other

  192. [SPEAKER_00]: believers who are Jews that don't have that same seal, and many of them will die.

  193. [SPEAKER_00]: And we know Satan is going to be after them.

  194. [SPEAKER_00]: Even the Babylon, the falls, this harlot, this religious system at that time period will be after the saints and wants to kill them.

  195. [SPEAKER_00]: So both Jew and Gentile believers, they're going to be after and kill them.

  196. [SPEAKER_00]: And so they're constantly constantly under attack, and we're actually going to bring this up.

  197. [SPEAKER_00]: But I think the reason God says, I have sealed these men, they're going to be making it to the end, and Satan can't touch these guys.

  198. [SPEAKER_00]: Terry brought that up.

  199. [SPEAKER_00]: Lord knows our life, you know, he knows when we're born, he knows when we're going to go.

  200. [SPEAKER_00]: He gets the dash thing as we say and such.

  201. [SPEAKER_00]: And we all know that.

  202. [SPEAKER_00]: And so, so we just keep plown for Jesus while we're here.

  203. [SPEAKER_00]: That's what we do.

  204. [SPEAKER_00]: But Satan

  205. [SPEAKER_00]: to cause us to fall back so that we're not being used by God, and that's his ultimate intent, and that's why he goes after leaders.

  206. [SPEAKER_00]: To be in the leadership, the strong man of the house that he can go in and have his way with the rest of the household, and that's sadly how Satan works.

  207. [SPEAKER_00]: So Bob was saying, well, we, as Christians, get to the point, well, we think we're untouchable.

  208. [SPEAKER_00]: That's when we're the most vulnerable.

  209. [SPEAKER_00]: And sorry to bring it up, but I always bring this up.

  210. [SPEAKER_00]: One of the most dangerous things were with guys that have bikes.

  211. [SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, that's the analogy I always give.

  212. [SPEAKER_00]: At beginning, it feels like, well, I'm going to be really, really careful.

  213. [SPEAKER_00]: And after a long, hey, I can do it really, hey, before a long, I can take that corner really fast.

  214. [SPEAKER_00]: And then we feel that we're not going to get hurt.

  215. [SPEAKER_00]: And that's when bikers are in trouble.

  216. [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I had a guy go buy me a hundred mile an hour as a bike yesterday.

  217. [SPEAKER_00]: Zubin threw traffic, it's like he thinks he's invincible.

  218. [SPEAKER_00]: I've been doing this for years, I'm fine.

  219. [SPEAKER_00]: And I was waiting to see a mass on the ground.

  220. [SPEAKER_00]: You know, good I've seen one, hit a sign.

  221. [SPEAKER_00]: I was there.

  222. [SPEAKER_00]: And so we had to be careful because we can never think I'm beyond.

  223. [SPEAKER_00]: We are sealed.

  224. [SPEAKER_00]: by the Spirit of God and I agree, but we're also not to tempt the Lord that God and we're also not to be thinking nothing whatever happened to me.

  225. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's when first Corinthians 10 says, let the person at things he stands, you better take heed or you're gonna be fallen flat in your face.

  226. [SPEAKER_00]: So when we think nothing's gonna happen to me,

  227. [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so Israel will not have the chance to think, oh, we're good now.

  228. [SPEAKER_00]: It's like they're being attacked all the time.

  229. [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, right now in Israel, do you think they feel secure?

  230. [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, bombs over or head all the time, you know, whether constantly under attack.

  231. [SPEAKER_00]: And so if a guy continues to sustain them, number six is critical.

  232. [SPEAKER_00]: So Satan will use the anacraced

  233. [SPEAKER_00]: to kill Jews.

  234. [SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to read this was Zechariah 138 reveals that one third of the Jewish population will survive.

  235. [SPEAKER_00]: Two-thirds of the Jews population will not survive the trip.

  236. [SPEAKER_00]: So let's go back to Zechariah.

  237. [SPEAKER_00]: This is the book I had actually thought about teaching on Tuesday morning, there's so much within Zachariah concerning the tribulation and it's hard for me not to start with you going through some of these predictions.

  238. [SPEAKER_00]: But we're looking at 13 and verse number 8 and I'm going to be a bit pointed here.

  239. [SPEAKER_00]: All the land says the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die, but the third shall be left therein or left alive.

  240. [SPEAKER_00]: So two-thirds of the population, the end of Christ, will be able to take and destroy and if they have not yet believed that Jesus and Messiah, they will perish.

  241. [SPEAKER_00]: If they have believed in Lord Jesus Christ,

  242. [SPEAKER_00]: then they will be obviously saved and be part of the of heaven and all that we will be experiencing.

  243. [SPEAKER_00]: This is why I titled this Satan's aim is on the children of Israel.

  244. [SPEAKER_00]: He hates them.

  245. [SPEAKER_00]: You know, this is free.

  246. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm watching the church age right now.

  247. [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm watching what is happening.

  248. [SPEAKER_00]: And there is a poison that has permeated a lot of churches and a relative, somebody that Brad knows well who's coming to our church.

  249. [SPEAKER_00]: She came up to me on a Sunday morning.

  250. [SPEAKER_00]: And she said, Pastor, I'm going to be coming to this church now on.

  251. [SPEAKER_00]: I said, well,

  252. [SPEAKER_00]: Great, we're glad you're here, you know, the history, you know, and everything, and she goes, so the reason is the church I have been tending for a long time, I noticed after a while he never talks about Israel.

  253. [SPEAKER_00]: He never prayed for Israel.

  254. [SPEAKER_00]: There was nothing about Israel.

  255. [SPEAKER_00]: So I approached him and I said, pastor, this is in our community.

  256. [SPEAKER_00]: Why don't you ever mention or pray for Israel?

  257. [SPEAKER_00]: And he said, because they don't matter to God anymore, the church has replaced the nation of Israel.

  258. [SPEAKER_00]: And there is a specific doctrine that people are holding to a theory and most of those, not all of them, but many of them that I've talked to said, no, we are Israel now.

  259. [SPEAKER_00]: And that's why when you see Israel mentioned in the tribulation that is showing the fact that we, the church who are Israel, will be going through the tribulation.

  260. [SPEAKER_00]: And those who are dying are actually the church age that are dying.

  261. [SPEAKER_00]: So everything related to Israel was actually us, and that's why they feel we're gonna be going through the tribulation.

  262. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, that changed everything, didn't it?

  263. [SPEAKER_00]: and she said, you know, Carl, I knew you'd love Israel and you pray for Israel and you're behind Israel, so I'm gonna become into this church, I think good, we're glad to have you on board.

  264. [SPEAKER_00]: It does matter, doctrine does matter.

  265. [SPEAKER_00]: And so, I'm sorry, absolutely.

  266. [SPEAKER_00]: And so, but when there's an agenda,

  267. [SPEAKER_00]: They're going to be putting things to the side and only highlight certain doctrines because they're going to be limiting to full knowledge of God.

  268. [SPEAKER_00]: So I love Acts 20 when Paul addresses the Ephesian elders.

  269. [SPEAKER_00]: He says to them, I have not kept back from teaching the whole Council of God.

  270. [SPEAKER_00]: I think about this, how many times did Paul bring up the nation of Israel?

  271. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm God.

  272. [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, even Sunday morning, even though he's dealing with the lost Jews who are trying to cause the law to permeate the church in a bad way, you know, he's still referencing them.

  273. [SPEAKER_00]: There's still a people, there's not done with them, and I'd love the verse, it says, there's no difference between the June to Gentile, the same Lord over all those rich upon all the call upon his name because whoever calls on the name of Lord to be saved.

  274. [SPEAKER_00]: Whether you're due, Gentile, it doesn't matter, anybody that makes this choice is then part of the body of Christ.

  275. [SPEAKER_00]: So they're now not due or Gentile, they're now church, they're now the bride of Christ, and we'll be raptured one day together.

  276. [SPEAKER_00]: But that first Corinthians 10, where he says, give no offense to the Jew, Gentile, or the church of God, shows you the three identities there are on this earth.

  277. [SPEAKER_00]: You're either a lost Gentile, a lost Jew, or you're saved, and now you're the body of Christ.

  278. [SPEAKER_00]: And there's nothing in between.

  279. [SPEAKER_00]: You're one of those three identities.

  280. [SPEAKER_00]: And you seated here, you're the church.

  281. [SPEAKER_00]: You're part of that body of Christ.

  282. [SPEAKER_00]: And it doesn't matter if you're a Jew or a Gentile, you're not a Jew or a Gentile now in God's sight.

  283. [SPEAKER_00]: Now you're my bride.

  284. [SPEAKER_00]: That's how he sees it.

  285. [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

  286. [SPEAKER_00]: Sometime, Google religious leaders that shook the hand of Hitler.

  287. [SPEAKER_00]: So let me tell you, just Google that when you're bored with tears.

  288. [SPEAKER_00]: And just wait for the pictures to show up.

  289. [SPEAKER_00]: You'd be surprised, those are saying,

  290. [SPEAKER_00]: doesn't matter, and so, yeah.

  291. [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and Bob, that's why we are excited to church age watching the Jews go home right now, because they are migrating from around the world and going home.

  292. [SPEAKER_00]: And for the first time since 70 AD, there are more Jews living in Israel than anywhere else in the world.

  293. [SPEAKER_00]: And the thing is, that's going to continue on, because we know what we're talking about.

  294. [SPEAKER_00]: When Satan goes after the Jews, they have to be in Judea.

  295. [SPEAKER_00]: If they're following me on this, they're not going to be in Detroit.

  296. [SPEAKER_00]: They're going to be home.

  297. [SPEAKER_00]: And then from there, they're going to be part of seeing the desecration of the temple, knowing the Antichrist has done this.

  298. [SPEAKER_00]: And so they're going to flee together and leave Judea.

  299. [SPEAKER_00]: They're not going to be leaving New York and Florida and Detroit.

  300. [SPEAKER_00]: They're going to be leaving that region.

  301. [SPEAKER_00]: So literally we're seeing everything being set up for the trip.

  302. [SPEAKER_00]: That's the easiest way of saying it.

  303. [SPEAKER_00]: And so just like the nation of Israel becoming a nation again in 48.

  304. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, that had to happen for the tribulation to even make sense.

  305. [SPEAKER_00]: So all this is happening in it is this.

  306. [SPEAKER_00]: And it's our generation.

  307. [SPEAKER_00]: I remember Dick McCurray, every time I go to the house and talk to him, you know, my mom, she would always teach me about Israel.

  308. [SPEAKER_00]: And how important they are.

  309. [SPEAKER_00]: And they're going to be a nation someday.

  310. [SPEAKER_00]: He said, his mom was so ecstatic.

  311. [SPEAKER_00]: Seeing them come alive again, as Ezekiel 37 says.

  312. [SPEAKER_00]: And so that's why he had such a heart for Israel because his mama taught him that concept.

  313. [SPEAKER_00]: And so, right on.

  314. [SPEAKER_00]: So, the last page,

  315. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan's final attempt, and I have a verse to add to this, yay.

  316. [SPEAKER_00]: So, never done.

  317. [SPEAKER_00]: So, Satan's final attempt will be at the Battle of Armageddon in the Valley of Megiddo, as, and I'll explain that in a minute.

  318. [SPEAKER_00]: Just when Israel was about to lose King Jesus, their Messiah will come down, what his armies, that's us.

  319. [SPEAKER_00]: And we'll destroy the armies who are attacking the Jews.

  320. [SPEAKER_00]: He will destroy those armies.

  321. [SPEAKER_00]: We'll take the Antichrist, false prophet.

  322. [SPEAKER_00]: We'll cast them alive and to the lake of fire for all of eternity, Revelation 19, 20, right?

  323. [SPEAKER_00]: How many times have we referenced Revelation 19, right?

  324. [SPEAKER_00]: It's the conclusion.

  325. [SPEAKER_00]: It's the Armageddon.

  326. [SPEAKER_00]: It's finally his oversetin' losers.

  327. [SPEAKER_00]: Antichrist loses.

  328. [SPEAKER_00]: God wins.

  329. [SPEAKER_00]: Jesus is his roler.

  330. [SPEAKER_00]: And the time of the Gentiles is over.

  331. [SPEAKER_00]: for sure, forever.

  332. [SPEAKER_00]: So there's a text I want you to add to that is Revelation 16, and we're gonna read 13 to 16.

  333. [SPEAKER_00]: We read 13 earlier, but now we're gonna go with just a little further.

  334. [SPEAKER_00]: So go there with me, Revelation 16.

  335. [SPEAKER_00]: 13 is the verse where we talked about the unholy Trinity.

  336. [SPEAKER_00]: So we have God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

  337. [SPEAKER_00]: And here brings up the dragon, the Antichrist, and the false prophet.

  338. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan's unholy Trinity.

  339. [SPEAKER_00]: We've already taught you one that.

  340. [SPEAKER_00]: So we can just move on from there.

  341. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's verse 13.

  342. [SPEAKER_00]: I saw three unclean spirits, like Frog come out of the mouth of the dragon.

  343. [SPEAKER_00]: There's Satan.

  344. [SPEAKER_00]: out of the mouth of the beast, that's the first beast, that's the Antichrist, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, or the second beast, the revelation describes 13.

  345. [SPEAKER_00]: Verse 14 now, for they are the spears of devils, or these demons, working miracles, going forth under the kings of the earth and the whole world stop, why would the unholy Trinity

  346. [SPEAKER_00]: Leadership, leadership of whom, though, nations.

  347. [SPEAKER_00]: He goes to the leadership, cause them, because Satan is after kings today, ladies and gentlemen, he is attempting to control them.

  348. [SPEAKER_00]: And that's why you see very few nations that side with Israel.

  349. [SPEAKER_00]: What I am told is they have more sanctions against Israel than any other nation.

  350. [SPEAKER_00]: They hate them.

  351. [SPEAKER_00]: They're like a Nat.

  352. [SPEAKER_00]: Get out of here.

  353. [SPEAKER_00]: Just kill them.

  354. [SPEAKER_00]: They're small.

  355. [SPEAKER_00]: They're insignificant.

  356. [SPEAKER_00]: And yet God keeps them going.

  357. [SPEAKER_00]: And Laurie reminded me, she goes, you know, every time you talk about the nation of Israel and the land, you say, why does everybody want it?

  358. [SPEAKER_00]: It's just a bunch of rocks.

  359. [SPEAKER_00]: You've been there, those have been there.

  360. [SPEAKER_00]: It's rocks on top of rocks that fell on rocks.

  361. [SPEAKER_00]: And you dig down enough rocks, you can find, all this was from the 1200s, or this is from BC 800, when this empire went, it's just rocks and then they beat each other up and they put rocks on top of the rocks to make a new level.

  362. [SPEAKER_00]: It's crazy.

  363. [SPEAKER_00]: And there is this one place I remember.

  364. [SPEAKER_00]: It was,

  365. [SPEAKER_00]: He could hardly see the bottom and they said, well, wait down there, that would be at such a such time period.

  366. [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm talking

  367. [SPEAKER_00]: 150 feet or whatever it was, a whole straight down, like, yeah, we're still digging down to find what happened back then, trying to find some artifacts and things, from that time period.

  368. [SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, why does everybody want this?

  369. [SPEAKER_00]: And why is everybody fighting over it?

  370. [SPEAKER_00]: Because God says, in Israel, I will put my name there.

  371. [SPEAKER_00]: It represents Jehovah.

  372. [SPEAKER_00]: and it represents his people.

  373. [SPEAKER_00]: So if we can kill Israel, we, and in Psalm 83 says, we're going to cause the name of Israel to be no more, and we went through that year, then they will say, we're done with all of this and that we can reign.

  374. [SPEAKER_00]: It's all about control.

  375. [SPEAKER_00]: So he's going to go out for the king just like he is now, and this is what he's going to do.

  376. [SPEAKER_00]: The whole earth, this is going to be a global battle.

  377. [SPEAKER_00]: All the earth.

  378. [SPEAKER_00]: Hate to tell you this, whatever America is at that time period, we're going to be involved with it.

  379. [SPEAKER_00]: The whole earth is going to be deceived by this one, because everybody has to follow him.

  380. [SPEAKER_00]: One world government, one world religion, one world currency.

  381. [SPEAKER_00]: We're going to be part of all of that.

  382. [SPEAKER_00]: Some people, where's America in the revelation?

  383. [SPEAKER_00]: I just showed you.

  384. [SPEAKER_00]: All.

  385. [SPEAKER_00]: They're all going to be coming for this battle.

  386. [SPEAKER_00]: Together them, this is the purpose of the false Trinity, is to bring these kings and their nations to battle to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

  387. [SPEAKER_00]: God saying, this is my battle.

  388. [SPEAKER_00]: Satan is bringing his troops to come after.

  389. [SPEAKER_00]: And then I love verse 15, behold, I, as his Jesus, come as a thief.

  390. [SPEAKER_00]: Blessed of He that watches and keeps His garments, let's He walk naked, and they see His shame, and He gathered them together into a place called Meheberchung Armageddon, and that's where we get this ultimate battle that God knows is coming, and so they're gonna be coming together, and they're gonna be preparing to fight, and that's when Jesus comes as a thief in the night,

  391. [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, if in a night reference is not rapture, if in a night is Jesus coming back to kick tail.

  392. [SPEAKER_00]: And he's not gonna be no mercy with him.

  393. [SPEAKER_00]: He will destroy.

  394. [SPEAKER_00]: He will trample as revelation says, trampling underfoot just like grapes, squishing, until the grape juice comes out, and that's the thought.

  395. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to be coming with my wrath, and I'm going to be mowing down and stepping down on these armies, killing them, until the blood flows,

  396. [SPEAKER_00]: until the blood literally will be splattering up to the bridal of the horses.

  397. [SPEAKER_00]: That's this battle.

  398. [SPEAKER_00]: I've told you that picture years ago of a, it's basically a tell, it's just like this ridge, and he's like six acres on top of the picture.

  399. [SPEAKER_00]: I remember going there, it was really cool because it's called Megito, okay?

  400. [SPEAKER_00]: So it's just basically it's a ridge to me in Pennsylvania.

  401. [SPEAKER_00]: Six acres was flat, and we climbed up and got on top of that.

  402. [SPEAKER_00]: And they, they believe as they have taught me, McGitto and Armageddon is why they believe it's going to be happening in the Jesereal Valley because as Napoleon, when he went on top of this, he looked out over the field, which is like 200 miles of flat land.

  403. [SPEAKER_00]: And he said, I have never, ever in my life, seen a greater battlefield.

  404. [SPEAKER_00]: And this guy knew this guy knew war.

  405. [SPEAKER_00]: And it is when I was up there, Lori snapped the picture of me and my face was very sober, very sober, because I know that's where this battle literally is going to be taking place one day.

  406. [SPEAKER_00]: You have all these ridges like Mount Carmel was where I left, I don't know the direction.

  407. [SPEAKER_00]: But that's where Elijah calls fire down

  408. [SPEAKER_00]: Moses was on this mount looking out over.

  409. [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it's like all these mountains around this valley.

  410. [SPEAKER_00]: It's very plush.

  411. [SPEAKER_00]: But that's where this battle is going to be taking place.

  412. [SPEAKER_00]: And that's where they feel, he wrote, word, Armageddon, come because of this Miguel.

  413. [SPEAKER_00]: So they said, if you could conquer Miguel, then you have the rest of the valley.

  414. [SPEAKER_00]: Because it's like you have these mountains.

  415. [SPEAKER_00]: So there's the passage, it's like right there.

  416. [SPEAKER_00]: So to get through that passage you have to you have to be getting through Maguido.

  417. [SPEAKER_00]: So it was like it was like the perfect place for the military to have dominance over others.

  418. [SPEAKER_00]: You could just see everybody in where they were coming from.

  419. [SPEAKER_00]: And so the nanny thing is Jesus doesn't need Maguido because he's coming from up here.

  420. [SPEAKER_00]: And he's going to be coming down and he is going to be taking these armies and this one side of battle is like I love Lucy when they're on top of those grapes just crushing them and everybody come on you've seen it old people and we all still laugh at it and so it's like that's exactly what it's going to be like God just trampling on these grapes and that's where the blood is going to flow.

  421. [SPEAKER_00]: So last point, number eight, through these events, the nation of Israel, not only be physically saved, but the Jews will also be spiritually saved.

  422. [SPEAKER_00]: They will then realize that Jesus is their Messiah.

  423. [SPEAKER_00]: I've already given you the Romans 11 in the past, and that's where he says about the time of the Gentiles is gonna stop.

  424. [SPEAKER_00]: because the deliverer is going to be coming on the Jacob, and he says he's going to be turning all ungodly this from Jacob.

  425. [SPEAKER_00]: And what he's getting at is this rebellious Israel, they're going to find the realized Jesus is the Messiah.

  426. [SPEAKER_00]: and says, this phrase, and so all, listen in, all Israel shall be saved.

  427. [SPEAKER_00]: He's not talking about a physical salvation.

  428. [SPEAKER_00]: He's talking of a spiritual salvation is going to happen to that people at a specific point.

  429. [SPEAKER_00]: And he says, it's going to happen when Jesus comes back.

  430. [SPEAKER_00]: The deliverer is going to become a back, and that's when it's going to be changed.

  431. [SPEAKER_00]: And then we're going to go to the Sekarai

  432. [SPEAKER_00]: That's a great question.

  433. [SPEAKER_00]: I kind of addressed that earlier.

  434. [SPEAKER_00]: First Corinthians 10 says there's three identities.

  435. [SPEAKER_00]: Jew, Gentile, church, a god.

  436. [SPEAKER_00]: So if they're a Jew, in that text, he would say that means they're not a believer.

  437. [SPEAKER_00]: And then you have Gentiles that are non-believers.

  438. [SPEAKER_00]: And then you have the church, which includes

  439. [SPEAKER_00]: Romans 10 says it this way, there's no difference in this day between the Jew and the Gentile.

  440. [SPEAKER_00]: Because the same Lord over all is rich upon hall the call upon Him, it says, who's whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved?

  441. [SPEAKER_00]: So any Jew who believes in Jesus Christ is their Savior becomes part of the church.

  442. [SPEAKER_00]: A Gentile, like most of us are, when we believe in Jesus, we go into the same body.

  443. [SPEAKER_00]: And that body of Christ, whether Jew or Gentile God says, you're no more special than a Gentile Jew,

  444. [SPEAKER_00]: because we're all one in Christ.

  445. [SPEAKER_00]: In Christ, there's neither male, female, bond-free, there's no Jude, Gentile, all of that were equal along a right across the board.

  446. [SPEAKER_00]: Doesn't matter if your man, woman, everything is the same for us.

  447. [SPEAKER_00]: And we will all be snatched up together.

  448. [SPEAKER_00]: Then when the trip begins,

  449. [SPEAKER_00]: The witnessing will happen because people will be getting saved early on.

  450. [SPEAKER_00]: I personally believe these 144,000 Jewish young men are also going to get saved early on and will have most of the seven years to witness around the world of Christ.

  451. [SPEAKER_00]: And so, in other words, when the rapture happens, there will not be one believer on this earth.

  452. [SPEAKER_00]: We're all going to be taken away.

  453. [SPEAKER_00]: But I think because of the rapture, many are going to realize scriptures were true, and they're going to repent and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and then they're going to be on a shame to start telling everybody.

  454. [SPEAKER_00]: I believe there's going to be a lot of preachers that get saved.

  455. [SPEAKER_00]: a lot of people that go to church is like, what happened to someone, you know, they disappear.

  456. [SPEAKER_00]: You know, they said that, that other church too, a bunch of people, what happened?

  457. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, the Bible does talk about a resurrection and we would hope that's going to stimulate people and work in them.

  458. [SPEAKER_00]: And I think early on people are going to get saved very quickly.

  459. [SPEAKER_00]: And as that progresses, Satan and the Babylon, they're going to be attacking these new believers.

  460. [SPEAKER_00]: And many of them will be headed, et cetera, during a time.

  461. [SPEAKER_00]: So that's a good question.

  462. [SPEAKER_00]: So let's go to Zechari again.

  463. [SPEAKER_00]: Remember I mentioned black.

  464. [SPEAKER_00]: We just go to Zechari all day.

  465. [SPEAKER_00]: But we're going to highlight this now.

  466. [SPEAKER_00]: So 12, 10 is the verse.

  467. [SPEAKER_00]: You'll be like, oh, that's I know that verse.

  468. [SPEAKER_00]: And most likely you do.

  469. [SPEAKER_00]: Decorate 1210 is a prophecy of something that has not happened yet, will happen during the trip.

  470. [SPEAKER_00]: I will pour upon the House of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, not New York,

  471. [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, specific area, the spirit of grace and supplications and they will, they who are there, the house of David, living in Jerusalem, if you will, they shall look upon me whom they have pierced.

  472. [SPEAKER_00]: Who else besides Jesus was pierced because of the nation of Israel?

  473. [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, this is a prophecy of the Lord Jesus Christ

  474. [SPEAKER_00]: They will look upon me, and they will know we had him pierced, and they shall mourn for him.

  475. [SPEAKER_00]: That's they're going to be mourning and crying for Jesus as one that mourns for his only son.

  476. [SPEAKER_00]: That's an interesting way of saying it.

  477. [SPEAKER_00]: Their own son.

  478. [SPEAKER_00]: He came unto his own

  479. [SPEAKER_00]: and his own received him not.

  480. [SPEAKER_00]: They rejected him as Messiah.

  481. [SPEAKER_00]: And then they're going to be a bitterness for him as one that is bitterness for their first born.

  482. [SPEAKER_00]: So we could go all over with that, but you get the point.

  483. [SPEAKER_00]: So here is obviously a prophecy of the death of Jesus Christ, the stabbing of Jesus Christ on the cross, and they're going to know

  484. [SPEAKER_00]: And he's the one, remember what he said to Thomas?

  485. [SPEAKER_00]: You don't believe you have to see?

  486. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, here's my hands.

  487. [SPEAKER_00]: Here's my side.

  488. [SPEAKER_00]: The scars in heaven are still there on Jesus.

  489. [SPEAKER_00]: He still bears those scars, even in his glorified body because he's the Lamb of God, the one that died.

  490. [SPEAKER_00]: It's going to bow memorial for all of eternity.

  491. [SPEAKER_00]: You couldn't be here without me.

  492. [SPEAKER_00]: And that's why we worship the Lamb, okay?

  493. [SPEAKER_00]: So, 13-6 brings up the same concept.

  494. [SPEAKER_00]: And once you'll say unto him, what are those wounds in your hands?

  495. [SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.

  496. [SPEAKER_00]: Where did that come from?

  497. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, we know where it came from.

  498. [SPEAKER_00]: The nails on the cross.

  499. [SPEAKER_00]: Then he shall answer those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

  500. [SPEAKER_00]: Fed loved, taught, turned against him, and that's who did this to me, my own people, Israel.

  501. [SPEAKER_00]: And they're going to get it.

  502. [SPEAKER_00]: So here's the sequence.

  503. [SPEAKER_00]: When Jesus comes down first, it tells us, I think, is that I also, he's going to be hitting the mount of all of us.

  504. [SPEAKER_00]: Actually, one, he's going to return the same way and look off at the ascension, which just happened, right?

  505. [SPEAKER_00]: And then, so he's going to hit there, Earthquake's going to happen.

  506. [SPEAKER_00]: Then he is going to go, we believe in sequence.

  507. [SPEAKER_00]: Martin taught me this.

  508. [SPEAKER_00]: He will be going, then, the Petra to reveal himself to the Jews who have fled Judea in Petra,

  509. [SPEAKER_00]: who say, and tried the genocide, but God's been taken care of them for three and a half years, and they're down there, when are we going to die?

  510. [SPEAKER_00]: When are we going to die?

  511. [SPEAKER_00]: When is it going to find?

  512. [SPEAKER_00]: When is it going to kill us?

  513. [SPEAKER_00]: And Christ is going to get in come and reveal Himself to the Jews that have fled and are there in Petra, eating, drinking, safe, insecure, and Christ is going to come, and He's going to do this.

  514. [SPEAKER_00]: Here's my hands.

  515. [SPEAKER_00]: Here's my side, and they're going to collapse, and they're going to realize they killed their Messiah, they killed their son, the one that came for them, they had him murdered, and they're going to be like, we killed our own son, we murdered him, and they're going to weep for him, and they're going to cry.

  516. [SPEAKER_00]: My sanctified imagination has it this way.

  517. [SPEAKER_00]: I can imagine Christ coming in hovering, so that no one view is obscured, that every eye will be able to see him, and he is gonna be there floating in front of them all, I am, and you killed me.

  518. [SPEAKER_00]: Jews require a sign,

  519. [SPEAKER_00]: That's going to be the ultimate sign, and they're going to believe, and they will collapse before him in weep, and they will worship him like they should have done in the first place.

  520. [SPEAKER_00]: But he's not done yet.

  521. [SPEAKER_00]: Now you believe you fulfilled Zechariah 12, 10, and 13, 6.

  522. [SPEAKER_00]: Now I got another battle I got to take care of in Jezrio Valley.

  523. [SPEAKER_00]: So then he's going to go up in a kick tail, kill everybody, and then judge the sheep and the goats, start just millennial rain, let's go on.

  524. [SPEAKER_00]: Let's have the rapture happen.

  525. [SPEAKER_00]: Let's get the time clock going, right?

  526. [SPEAKER_00]: Let's get the rapture going, get this peace treaty signed, everybody's waiting for it.

  527. [SPEAKER_00]: And let's get this thing going, right?

  528. [SPEAKER_00]: Well, there is the Antichrist 101.

  529. [SPEAKER_00]: Lord, we'd love you, we thank you for your word.

  530. [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you for the patience, these are your folks.

  531. [SPEAKER_00]: Boy, we are just amazed by you.

  532. [SPEAKER_00]: Your word, how it blends.

  533. [SPEAKER_00]: This stuff was written hundreds and thousands of years before it will take place.

  534. [SPEAKER_00]: Your word, Lord, is amazing.

  535. [SPEAKER_00]: And we thank you that you have given it to us in our language.

  536. [SPEAKER_00]: We are a blessed nation.

  537. [SPEAKER_00]: So Lord, I pray you'll take these dear folks home safely tonight.

  538. [SPEAKER_00]: Give them added energy, they got to get up and go to work tomorrow.

  539. [SPEAKER_00]: We pray for the stands, berries, that you'll bless them as we have the service tomorrow night that your word will be clear to the folks and it will cease and good decisions for you.

  540. [SPEAKER_00]: Even if we're just planting the seed or watering, I believe Lord, you'll give the increase.

  541. [SPEAKER_00]: So thank you for this night.

  542. [SPEAKER_00]: Use it for your glory, and we'll thank you for using the sacred pray.
