  1. Do you know the Bible is God's Holy Word? Do

  2. you know it is inspired, in errant, and infallible? If so, like, share,

  3. subscribe and support this podcast. So we are Maranatha Ministries

  4. and now Redemption draweth Nige. Welcome, Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome

  5. to the program. We are your host Jose and Matthew.

  6. Tonight we're doing the Book of Astaff chapter five. This

  7. is Psalm seventy six. Once again, it's a very short

  8. chapter and it's very diverse when you just give it

  9. a precursory reading through, it's a very diverse chapter. It

  10. seems to be speaking about a lot and it doesn't

  11. really concentrate on one particular subject. So it's pretty interesting

  12. to look at in the original language that's serves. So, Jose,

  13. what's your opening comments on this infamous chapter.

  14. Well, Matthew, the last chapter we read, I really got

  15. well a lot of you know, the feelings of birth pains, right,

  16. the feelings of kind of that that that period right

  17. at the fifth seal where you've got the martyrs crying out.

  18. But this one, Matthew, I just get those those six

  19. seal connotations. I just get those days of the Lord connotations.

  20. This is you know, this, this psalm actually describes, you know,

  21. when God rises up. So it's I'm just I'm just

  22. I'm just wondering, Matthew, why why white people don't put

  23. this together with what we see in Revelation, what we

  24. see with the with the different seals, because it's tracking

  25. right along, Matthew, it's tracking right along with what Jesus

  26. said in Matthew twenty four. It's it's you know, it's

  27. like I don't want to say it's obvious, but Matthew,

  28. I just can't help but see it. I mean, that's

  29. the feeling I'm getting here in this chapter. You know,

  30. the previous chapter was setting up this chapter, and we're

  31. getting more insight into into what God has planned and

  32. what He's going to do.

  33. I I agree with those sentiments. I I agree with that,

  34. and and I should agree with that. Like I said,

  35. whenever you take a look at the original language here,

  36. the other ones are replete, the other chapters here. But

  37. this has a single alphanumeric integer in it, and it

  38. comes in the worst way. Really, it comes in the

  39. worst way. It comes in verse twelve, where you see, well,

  40. what is the king James version say let me switch

  41. over there real quick, the new King James version. Boy,

  42. how do I put this? It says, Lord your God,

  43. That's what it says. Here in the Hebrew it is

  44. hello eloheen. But because of its tense, it's it's spelled

  45. differently because this is in the masculine plural, so it's

  46. a lot key and that integer in the role measure

  47. six sixty six. And that would immediately when you when

  48. you overlay that to this chapter, that's immediately what you

  49. would get is, you know, this is the entire reason

  50. why God gets involved. That's the whole, that's the host,

  51. spearhead of everything, isn't it, Jose. Is that at the

  52. end of the day you have you have this little horn,

  53. and he sets up this abomination of desolation, and from

  54. that point forward, it is Key that is going to

  55. be the beast from the earth. It's that point that

  56. it is he who is going to set up an

  57. image to his God, and it is he that will

  58. implement six sixty six. And as soon as he sets

  59. up that abomination set of desolation, God gets underway. And

  60. that's a good American way to put it. He gets

  61. underway because right now, you know, I know, I keep

  62. pointing this out to people. I don't understand why people,

  63. especially those people who call themselves God's children, they insist

  64. in their subconscious that he's been entuned on his throne.

  65. But literally speaking, when you talk to any Christian across

  66. the board, doesn't matter where they're at, and you say,

  67. when you close your eyes and and you like pray

  68. to God, what do you see in your mind? Who

  69. are you praying to? And what does that look like?

  70. And they tell you the same thing. He's this huge,

  71. huge entity that's sitting on a great, big, huge throne.

  72. He's immovable. He has white hair and white beard, white robe,

  73. and you can't see his irises. His eyeballs are like spotlights, right,

  74. Jose Right, That's what they all say. That's what they

  75. all think. And what's even more fascinating is that I've

  76. had adolescence draw me a picture. Being the head of

  77. junior church, I was able to do this start out

  78. the session that way. Okay, everybody draw me a picture

  79. of God whenever you're praying to him. They all drew

  80. the same exact thing, same exact thing. And these are

  81. these are adolescents, they were preteen that just blew me away.

  82. But ladies and gentlemen, God is going to get up,

  83. and that's what he says. And when he gets up,

  84. you know, you need to understand the something starts the tribulation.

  85. And this is really the key to your eschatology, whatever

  86. type of eschatology you hold, to ask yourself this, what

  87. starts the tribulation? What is it that starts it? I mean,

  88. everybody talks about what goes on inside the tribulation, but

  89. they really have no idea what starts it, what great

  90. events starts it? And if things are going to be

  91. normal in the tribulation. I mean, for some reason, people

  92. think the sky is still going to be blue, right,

  93. Jose correct. They still think it's going to rain. They

  94. literally still think that all the flower garden, that all

  95. the flowers out in the flower garden is still gonna blue.

  96. That's literally what they think. They think that the earth

  97. will operate the same way. They think everything will just

  98. continue on as it always has. Hunky door. I mean,

  99. they think newular bombs will be going off, there'll be

  100. great plagues. But for some reason, they still think the

  101. sky's going to be blue, and everybody will set their

  102. alarm clocks for six o'clock in the morning, right, Jose,

  103. correct subconsciously the things that really matter and their subconscious

  104. is going to stay the same. For instance, have you

  105. ever heard anybody concerned that during the tribulation the tide

  106. wouldn't come back and forth like it always does, Jose.

  107. Have you ever heard anybody mention that about the tide? No, Matthew, No,

  108. But yet the tide is exponentially detrimental to our habitation,

  109. doesn't it. Yes, If we don't have the oscillating motion

  110. of the oceans, we're in deep trouble. We're in deep trouble.

  111. We've been getting hints of really deep trouble here over

  112. the past several years. As a matter of fact, since

  113. the time that I started the d Time Tribune. A

  114. lot of people don't talk about it anymore, but do

  115. a search in your search engine for fish kell and

  116. it happens all the time. I assure you, we don't

  117. report on it because it's just pointless to report on

  118. it anymore. Every single time they come up with the

  119. same thing here over the past six or seven times

  120. when I look for it, the water had been deoxygenated.

  121. There's no oxygen in the water, and this is happening

  122. everyone on the planet. Lakes, rivers, the ocean. Look it up.

  123. I dare you look up fishkill just in the past month. Oh,

  124. you'll find them, and you'll find the result being there's

  125. no oxygen in the water. Do you know what causes

  126. oxygen the water to become oxygenated? Do you know what

  127. causes the That's how end time, Bible prophecy starts. That's

  128. how the birth pain start. Ladies and gentlemen. If you

  129. get into a large body of water and you look

  130. out and you see wave action, you see breakers. The

  131. breakers are white, right, Jose, Yes, that's the only way

  132. water gets oxygenated. It is the wave action. If you

  133. see white breakers on the top of the waves, you

  134. know oxygen is getting into the water. That's the only

  135. way it happens. And as you've heard me and Jose

  136. state many times, it is the four winds of Heaven,

  137. the four spirits of Heaven stirring up the waters that

  138. brings forth the four beast and the dry bones. So,

  139. if you're a Christian and you start seeing that we're

  140. having trouble with oxygenation and in the water, if you

  141. don't have the wherewithal it'll be read. I really don't

  142. know what to tell you, because when the Bible starts

  143. out saying that the spirit of the Living God moved

  144. on the surface of the waters, if you don't believe

  145. that much, you probably really don't believe what the rest

  146. that the Bible has to say, because it doesn't take

  147. a rocket scientist to figure this out. If the four

  148. spirits of Heaven are not oxygenating the water, they're doing

  149. something else. So Jose, good stuff here in Psalm seventy six.

  150. I think I'll just read it through. Now you read

  151. it through last time, right, I believe so?

  152. Yes?

  153. All right, So it is my turn. I was hoping

  154. that it was. I want to read this from the

  155. New King James version, of course. Psalm seventy six, The

  156. majesty of God in judgment to the chief musician and

  157. stringed instruments, a song of Asith, a song in Judah.

  158. God is known. His name is great in Israel. In

  159. Salem also is his abernacle and his dwelling place in Zion.

  160. There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield,

  161. and the sword in battle. Sila, you are more glorious

  162. and excellent than the mountains of prey, the stoutthearted were plundered.

  163. They have sunk into their sleep, and none of the

  164. mighty men have found the use of their hands. At

  165. your rebuke, O, God of Jacob, both the chariot and

  166. the horse were cast into the dead sleep. You yourself

  167. are to be feared. And who may stand in your

  168. presence when once you are angry you cause judgment to

  169. be heard from heaven. The earth feared and was still

  170. when God arose in judgment could deliver. Oh, the oppressed

  171. of the earth, sailah. Surely the wrath of man shall

  172. praise you. With the remainder of wrath. You shall gird yourself,

  173. make vows to the Lord your God, and pay them.

  174. Let all who are around him bring presents to him

  175. who sought, who ought to be feared. He shall cut

  176. off the spirit of princes. He is awesome to the

  177. kings of the earth. Very easy to read through, very

  178. very It affects you, That's how I've got to put it,

  179. Especially right there in the halfway point. It affects you.

  180. He he's trying to tell you that he's going to

  181. get involved, He's going to get underway. He's going to

  182. get underway. And you take this literally, it'll scary. It'll

  183. kind of scare you to pieces because Ose, guess what's

  184. going to happen? And you know what would happen if

  185. this actually was to come to pass? The Earth feared

  186. and was still right, Jose, what would happen if that

  187. ever happened?

  188. Well, Matthew, if you dig that literally, you're talking about,

  189. you know, the Earth not rotating, You're talking about what

  190. you're describing with the oceans not doing their action. You're

  191. talking about all the creation basically on standby, waiting for

  192. God to set everything back in motion, Matthew, and doing

  193. that just out of fear for that judgment that's coming. Matthew.

  194. That's literally what's being said right here.

  195. We can I bring something up from a different point

  196. of view.

  197. Yep.

  198. So you and I've talked about retrograde motion, right, yes, Okay,

  199. ladies and gentlemen, what's retrograde motion. You can look up

  200. at Jupiter and it moves very slowly. Okay, it moves

  201. very slowly, and you need to know that it moves

  202. so slowly that it moves through one of the constellations

  203. in a year. But if you track it over the

  204. course because of our relative position in the heavens, and

  205. because of our orbit, there's times when Jupiter stops and

  206. goes backwards, and then it'll stop and continue forward. This

  207. is because of our orbit around the Sun. Because we

  208. are also in motion, we will catch up to where

  209. it is visually in the heavens, and as we make

  210. that turnaround to our lap, it will appear to go backwards. So, Jose,

  211. if that's what God's talking about, we're in a world

  212. of hurt.

  213. Right correct? Wouldn't that put us outside of that goldilocks? So, Matthew,

  214. that were yes to be in right.

  215. Now, Yes, that would mean we had been moved out

  216. of our orbit. That's that's what it would mean. And

  217. that is physically not possible outside of the locomotion of Jupiter.

  218. And I'm you know, we don't talk about this very

  219. often anymore now. In times past, I when I was

  220. beginning to teach people about celestial somology, we spend a

  221. lot of time doing that. But ladies, gentlemen, you need

  222. to know that the orbital plane, it's not determined by

  223. your son. Now, I can existentially prove this because the

  224. Sun is tilted off the orbital plane by seven or

  225. eight degrees. Now you need to know what does determine

  226. our orbital path for all the planets. It's Jupiter. That's

  227. a fact. That's a stone cold fact. If you don't

  228. believe me, gets your telescope where you can observe the

  229. Sun and watch the sun spots. The sun spots don't

  230. move directly across the Sun like you think they should know.

  231. The sunspots revolver around the Sun at a seven to

  232. eight degree inclination. So you need to know that if

  233. we have problems with our orbit, you can take this

  234. to the bank. You better look to the King star,

  235. because the only way you're going to come out of

  236. your orbit is if something happens to Jupiter like a

  237. grand pack. You need to write those things down, write

  238. down grand tack, and look it up. The reason why

  239. you're in the habitable zone right now is because mathematically

  240. we know that Jupiter did do a grand tap, and

  241. what pulled Jupiter back out to where it is now

  242. and stabilized all the orbits was the father star Saturn.

  243. Look it up. Look it up. It also means a

  244. few other things. The same mathematical equations state that the

  245. only way this works is if Uranus and Neptune was switched.

  246. There's also another really big problem with this mathematically. It

  247. also proves there had to been a fifth gas giant

  248. that is no longer in our solar system. So let

  249. me read that one more time for effect. Amen, Because

  250. you know, for some rhyme or some reason, Christians in

  251. the past they knew what they was holding in their

  252. hands had been written by God. But Christians don't believe

  253. that anymore because of Satan shepherds and the corrupt clergy.

  254. But I'm gonna read this verse again for effect, because

  255. you need to know. What this chapter says is that

  256. God's going to get up and start kicking things around.

  257. The one who created it is the one who wrote it.

  258. He's the one that wrote this verse. You cause judgment

  259. to be heard from heaven to earth, feared and was

  260. still when God arose to judgment to deliver all the

  261. oppressed of the earth. The one who made it is

  262. the one who wrote it. So jose your thoughts.

  263. Yeah, Matthew, that's a lot where you just covered there.

  264. But I'm going to start in the beginning, Matthew. That

  265. first stands up. We're given to two groups, essentially, Judah

  266. and Israel. And we've said repeatedly that Israel it is

  267. those Christians, Matthew. It is those people that not only

  268. hold to the law and the testimony, who believe that

  269. the Son of God is their savior, who believe everything

  270. that God's written in the Bible and understand that God

  271. is faithful. Those are those Christians, Matthew, that are described

  272. as Israel in the Book of Romans. And we've also

  273. mentioned prophetically that Judah, well, just like the Jews in

  274. Jesus' time, Matthew, they didn't believe in him, They believed

  275. in their way of holding the law, and they didn't

  276. believe in the testimony. And we know, Matthew, that comes

  277. up short. And those guys are described in Revelation chapter

  278. twelve as being the rest of her children. They're described

  279. as those in Revelation chapter seven that must be counted.

  280. And then there's of course culminating in Revelation chapter twenty.

  281. So right away, Matthew, we're giving two groups that are

  282. described here, but we're also told a little bit about

  283. how God's setting up his kingdom. This is saying that

  284. his tabernacle is in Salem. Now, historically, Matthew, the temple

  285. was there, not the tabernacle.

  286. Yeah, the tabernacle was never there.

  287. Amen. Amen. So we know this is talking about a

  288. different point in time than historical dealing with Matthew. And

  289. of course we're told about Zion, his true dwelling place,

  290. and we're giving various descriptions of Zion and what it entails.

  291. But in regards to prophecy, we're told in Revelation fourteen,

  292. who dwells in Mount Zion with the fought. So so

  293. right away you're you're you're given a detailed description here, Matthew,

  294. of the various groups and entities that we've described. You know,

  295. every chapter we come up to, Matthew, there's different ways

  296. to describe these groups. You've got the children that ascend

  297. to the Father and Mount Zion. You've got the woman

  298. who's taken to a place that's prepared for her, that

  299. tabernacle has spread over her during these during the tribulation,

  300. and then of course you have the rest of her

  301. children who have to deal with the beast and the

  302. false prophet and the image of the beast and have

  303. to go through that ordeal Matthew. But verse three here

  304. tells us why these things must take place, and it

  305. tells us where it's going to take place. He's he's

  306. given this description that in Zion is where he's going

  307. to break those bows. May Matthew where he's going to

  308. break the arrows and the shields? Right? I mean the

  309. last the last verse in this salm tells us he

  310. cuts off the spirit of the princes. It's it's telling

  311. us where that transpires and why he must take those

  312. children with him to be with him in Zion. What

  313. Matthew tells us, that's that's a manual, right God, God

  314. is with us. So just that first down to Matthew,

  315. all the prophetic implications that that that are being described there,

  316. it's pretty awesome to read.

  317. Well, I mean, I hate to be mister obvious, but

  318. since when is since when are we talking about Salem?

  319. Right?

  320. Yes, okay, that's that's not what that's not what. It's Jerusalem,

  321. right amen. I mean there's only twice that Salem is

  322. used in the scripture. Okay, that's Genesis chapter four and

  323. right here, so that should get your attention, right, yep.

  324. The first time it's used is then Malchizedek, king of Salem,

  325. brought out bread and wine. He was the priest of

  326. God Most High. Just right there and right here is

  327. it called Salem. And take note it was it was

  328. making it perfectly clear that God was not coming from

  329. any place on earth. This chapter makes that perfectly clear.

  330. He's coming from Heaven.

  331. Amen.

  332. So literally speaking, this is a whole lot before Hebrews

  333. chapter twelve, verse twenty. Right. Yes, yet it is making

  334. it perfectly clear that Zion is in Heaven. So this

  335. instance here of Salem, why do you think it is

  336. that that God didn't say Jerusalem.

  337. Well, I think it's your your reference to Genesis fourteen, Matthew,

  338. we're told that you know that there are priests after

  339. the order of Melchizedic, and that that Jesus is the

  340. chief priest in that order, right, And so the rest

  341. of those priests of that order are those that we're

  342. told about in Revelation chapter twenty, Matthew, where they not

  343. only rule and reign with Christ, but they are also priests.

  344. They also have a job to do. They're not just

  345. going to be sitting on the throne. They will be

  346. ministering to God and protecting the woman. I mean, that's

  347. what we're told repeatedly is their job to do. So

  348. I think it's it's it's key that God, God said Salem,

  349. they're not Jerusalem, because it's a differentferent, a different set

  350. of priests that are in charge of sailing Matthew.

  351. That's right, it's a different and and just just so

  352. everybody knows, I mean, yeah, that's people's not expecting you

  353. to say that. But it's just like when he also

  354. talks of a group, he says he's the firstborn from

  355. the dead. He's the firstborn. He's the pro to post

  356. neck ros right, right, yep. It doesn't take a rocket

  357. scientist to figure this out logistically. He only said that

  358. for one reason. He's the firstborn, and there's going to

  359. be a whole preceding group. He's just the firstborn of

  360. that group. There is coming another group who are born

  361. from the dead, and that group is highly deep held

  362. in the Bible. Right, I mean you said it, yes,

  363. I mean Revelation Chapter twenty is structured off of them.

  364. That's what happens. First, These are the officials of the

  365. millennial reign of Christ. So very interesting that you would

  366. you would put it that way. But there's a whole

  367. order of priest after My milk is a deck there's

  368. a whole order of them. And one thing is for sure.

  369. It blows me up. People can't get this. The woman,

  370. the bride, those that are saved in Christ Jesus, they

  371. do not have a job to do.

  372. Jose, Amen, amen.

  373. Okay does it say that those of the first resurrection? Okay?

  374. Why does it say those are the first resurrection because

  375. they have been born from the dead.

  376. Okay, yep.

  377. So that's the whole purpose. Once you realize that, ladies

  378. and gentlemen, that's they are not going to the lamb

  379. supper or to the marriage supper of the lamb. They're

  380. not getting married to the lamb. We are. That's a

  381. different entity. That is a different entity altogether. And it

  382. amazes me how people just can't get that part down.

  383. It amazes me how people can't get that part down.

  384. So it would seem to me, ladies and gentlemen, that

  385. after all the different scripture verses that we've read about

  386. this place prepared, right Jose Right, I mean we've read, well,

  387. when we get there, we're going to be called the

  388. sheep of his pasture. Right. Yes, he calls it his vineyard,

  389. but this said something else. It said his tabernacle was

  390. in Salem. That's what it said. So when we go

  391. to this narrative in Revelation chapter seven, take note that's

  392. where you see this tabernacle. Literally speaking, that's where you

  393. see this tabernacle. We've read it before, but you need

  394. to know. This is what it says. It says, therefore,

  395. there before the throne of God, and serve him day

  396. and night in his temple. And He that set us

  397. on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger

  398. no more, nor neither thirst anymore. Neither shall they sunlight

  399. on them, nor let me eat. For the Lamb, which

  400. is the midst of the throne, shall feed them, and

  401. shall lead them unto living fountains of waters. And God

  402. shall wipe all tears from their eyes. It's right here,

  403. ladies and gentlemen, if you read this whole diatribe, he

  404. comes out and says that God stretches his tabernackle over them.

  405. It's right here in these verses. What I just read

  406. to you is from the kjav But the New King

  407. James version says it better, and it comes out and

  408. says God stretches his tabernacle over you in this place.

  409. That's what it says. That's what it means. I'll read

  410. it again. Revelation chapter seven, verse nine. After these things,

  411. I looked and behold a great multitude which no one

  412. could number, of all nations, tribes, people's toes, standing before

  413. the throne before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with

  414. palm branches in their hands, and crying out the loud voice, saying,

  415. salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne,

  416. and to the Lamb. All the angel stood around the throne,

  417. and the elders and the fore living creatures fell on

  418. their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying a

  419. man blessing and glory and wisdom, thanksgiving and honor, and

  420. our might to be to our God forever and ever.

  421. Then one of the elders answered and said to me,

  422. who are these arayed in robes? And where did they

  423. come from? And I said to him, sir, you know

  424. so he said to me, these are the ones who

  425. come out of the great tribulation, washed their robes and

  426. made them quite in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore

  427. they are before the throne of God and serve him

  428. day and night in his temple. And he who sits

  429. on the throne will dwell among them. They shall neither

  430. hunger nor thirst anymore. The sun shall not strike them

  431. nor any heat. For the Lamb, who sits in the

  432. midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them

  433. to living fountains of waters, and God will wipe every

  434. tear from their eye. Ladies and gentlemen, you have to

  435. put tune two together. You just come out and said,

  436. these are all wearing white robes, and we know that

  437. it is the bride that has prepared her garments, right Jose, Yes, yes,

  438. her white garments are the righteous acts, right right. So

  439. this is stating, ladies and gentlemen, this is out of time.

  440. This angel's having to tell him because John's confused. Who

  441. are these? Well, it's you. It is those who are

  442. alive and remain at the event. You are taken to

  443. this place and there you're segregated until the marriage supper

  444. of the Lamb. Take note the verses I read did

  445. not say you'd been married yet. You don't get married

  446. until all the way Jose already said it Revelation chapter twenty,

  447. that's when you get married. So this is stating this

  448. is where you're at and it is Psalm seventy six

  449. that actually gives it nomenclature. This place where John saw

  450. this great multitude that had been taken out from the

  451. great tribulation and segregated here in this place, asaff called

  452. that place wherever it is, he called that Salem, and

  453. he called that Salem for a reason. Salem in Hebrew

  454. is peace, right, hose, Yes.

  455. It's peace.

  456. That's what Salem is. You can pronounce it another way, shalom. Oh,

  457. you didn't realize that was just pronunciation. Yeah, ladies and gentlemen,

  458. that's just pronunciation. Salem in Hebrew is peace. Now, once

  459. I say that, you probably realize where I'm going, because, yes,

  460. when you know where to look for in the scripture

  461. for that exact thing, you're going to wind up in

  462. one chapter first, Thessalonians, chapter five, verse twenty three. Now,

  463. may the God of Peace himself sanctify you completely, and

  464. may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless

  465. at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Osee, do

  466. you understand what this single verse just said. Yep, ladies

  467. and gentlemen, this verse is saying, you know what, maybe

  468. I should give a little bit of dictation here from

  469. the Hebrew, lets go straight to the Hebraica, ladies and gentlemen.

  470. That's what this is saying right here, and incorporated this,

  471. you need to understand that literally what it is saying,

  472. Hebrew is is a very prophetic language, and when you

  473. look at this in the Hebraica from the It's New Testament,

  474. it's literally saying that the God of Salem. You see,

  475. Hebrew's not like Greek. Greek is highly technical. When you

  476. look at the Hebrew, you don't have an's and these

  477. and butts and oars and all those conjunctions. It's a

  478. very prophetic language, and when you look at this, it

  479. can prophetically be saying that God in this place is

  480. called peace. You weren't expecting me to cover the Hebraica

  481. in this were you? You're expecting me that if I

  482. was going to talk about first Uscalonians chapter five, I

  483. would speak about the Greek. But I don't have to

  484. because that's only half the equation. So when you know this,

  485. when you're able to just look at the Hebraeka here

  486. in First Usalonians chapter five, you're like scratching your head, like, well, holy.

  487. Now, Matthew's that's describing what you read in Revelation chapter seven,

  488. those white robes washed with the blood of the lamb. Yes,

  489. I know exactly what's describing.

  490. Well, let's go back up to verse three of First

  491. Thessalonia's chapter five. This is why it says this, For

  492. when they say He's and safety, then sudden destruction comes

  493. upon them as labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and

  494. they shall naughty state here. I'll read the next one.

  495. But you, brethren, are not in darkness that this day

  496. should overtake you like a thief. They just come right

  497. out and told you, Holy this is going to be

  498. the great day of the Lord. Amen, and he's going

  499. to take you. He's going to segregate you to a place,

  500. and in that place he's going to call it Salem,

  501. and he's going to be the God of Salem. This

  502. is why in Psalm seventy six it makes reference to

  503. Salem as a place, not as a verb. So it's

  504. all right here in black and white, and once you

  505. can see it, things start to make sense right right.

  506. And take note, it was Asaff that told us what

  507. he was going to do at this juncture verse night.

  508. When God arose to judgment to deliver all the oppressed

  509. of the earth, Si la, Jose, are you going through

  510. the birth pains?

  511. No? Not right now, Matthew, are.

  512. You going to yeh, you're alive and remain amen?

  513. Yes, okay.

  514. As a matter of fact, I just read that from

  515. First of Salonians, chapter five, verse three, right exactly. Yes,

  516. that at that time everybody's going to be crying peace

  517. and safety because Jose, you're going to be going through

  518. the birth pangs. Right, That's what the very next verse said.

  519. So you need to understand. You got to be able

  520. to put two and two together, Jose, and it's very

  521. easy to put together. At the end of the birthpags,

  522. God's going to get up and when he does, he's

  523. going to execute judgment. He's going to rearrange your orbital parameters.

  524. He's going to put you in a segregated place, and

  525. he's going to call that place peace. And when he does,

  526. he's going to tell he's going to take you. And

  527. he said he's going to completely sanctify your entire body, mind,

  528. and spirit. Now I know I only read a couple

  529. of verses, Jose, but that's what he said. Yes, So

  530. once that happens, to you. The only thing you have

  531. to do from that place is wait for Christ return,

  532. and I assure you you will be perfectly sheltered in

  533. his tapernacle. That's the simplicity of this message. That's the

  534. simplicity of Psalm seventy six. That God is not entombed

  535. on his throne. And when it's time, we're going to

  536. start entering the birth pangs, and we're going to find

  537. ourselves extremely uncomfortable by the end of them. But at

  538. the end of them, he who sits at the pond

  539. the throne will stretch his tumber knackle over us. And

  540. he's not going to do it in Jerusalem. He just

  541. come right out and told you He's going to do

  542. this from a place called Salem. And it's that simple.

  543. And once you put all these you know, pieces in place,

  544. it becomes pretty exciting, doesn't that, Josey Matthew. It begins

  545. to make sense, that begins to make sense, and it

  546. really makes a whole lot of sense if you'd have

  547. read what Asath had to say about it in Psalm

  548. seventy six. I mean, once you know what's going to

  549. happen on the Great Day of the Lord and what

  550. he's going to do. Yeah, he's going to rattle everybody's cage, right, Jose, Yes,

  551. and I mean Lottie, Dottie, everybody, angels included. Amen.

  552. Amen.

  553. But the most important part is what he's going to

  554. do with her. What he's going to do with every

  555. born again, God fearing, Bible believing godspel preaching Christian what's

  556. going to happen to them? Are they going to go

  557. through the Great Tribulation? Jose, No, no, No, that's not

  558. what it says. That's not what he meant, right, your thoughts.

  559. I want to jump back real quick, Matthew to milk

  560. Kizedek in Hebrew seven, where he's described as the King

  561. of Salem, the King of exactly what we've been covering

  562. right now. But verse three of that says without father,

  563. without mother, without genealogy, typing neither beginning of days nor

  564. end of life, but made like the son of God,

  565. he remains a priest perpetually. So the reason that the

  566. reason I'm reading that, Matthew, is how you described those

  567. Revelations twenty, those of the first Resurrection being born of

  568. the dead, and verse six in Revelation twelve tells us

  569. that the second death has no power on these individuals.

  570. They shall be priests of God and of Christ, as

  571. shall reign with him a thousand years. So all these descriptors, Matthew,

  572. that were given of Salem, they're they're all, they're all aligned,

  573. they're all saying the same thing. Yeah, in one part.

  574. In first Thessalonians, we're told about the woman and Uh

  575. and Hebrew seven we're told about those are the first Resurrection,

  576. and on and on and on, Matthew, if we keep

  577. tracing this out, he's going to tell us how the

  578. kingdom of God, how the kingdom of his son will

  579. be set up for that millennial reign. He's not leaving

  580. he's not leaving any detail uncovered. And it all starts

  581. right there in Psalm seventy six. That just the detail

  582. that he gives us in Psalm seventy six, and the

  583. reason why he calls it Salem, and the reason why

  584. he talks about Zion. It's it's all. It's all in

  585. describing this the event what is to come, Matthew. That's

  586. that's to me, that's pretty clear. What everything that I'm

  587. tying together here is matching with what he's already told us.

  588. It's matching perfectly. Yes, yes, you know, I want to

  589. bring something up from the last chapter. Can I do that?

  590. Amen?

  591. Okay, verses two and three. We talked about this before,

  592. so Verses two and three from seventy five. When I

  593. choose the proper time, I will judge up rightly the

  594. Earth and oh it's in heavens are dissolved. I set

  595. up its pillars firmly, Sila. Now, last time I made

  596. pretty clear that he was talking about the axis of

  597. the Earth, right, yes, well, let me talk about this again.

  598. The Earth is fixed in the heavens off a north

  599. pole star and a south hole star. So we are

  600. hung in the heavens off of one pole star, and

  601. we are anchored to another whole star, one in the

  602. northern hemisphere, one in the Southern hemisphere. When we read

  603. these two chapters in succession, something comes to mind. He

  604. can also be prophetically saying this that Salem is one

  605. pole star and Zion is another. It's also like, well,

  606. let's take this word for tabernacle. It is just like

  607. a big top hint that carnivals used to be in.

  608. There's a great big center poll, right, Jose, Yes, the

  609. Bible speaks of this many times, many times it speaks

  610. of this tabernacle being like that. So when you realize that,

  611. and when you realize well, let me talk about this again.

  612. Here in the New King James version, in Revelation, chapter seven,

  613. verse fifteen, it says this. It says, he sits on

  614. the throne, will dwell among them. Well, that's that is

  615. what it says. But you need to know that that

  616. word there is g forty six thirty seven. That's why

  617. some translations say tabernacle, because that's what it is, because

  618. it means both things. It means a tabernacle. It also

  619. means where you're in camping. So when you look at that,

  620. say look at this into Greek, you're like, oh my goodness.

  621. What it is saying that he will spread skin his

  622. place over them? He is saying he's going to spread

  623. his tabernacle over you. This is enough to blow you

  624. away when he's saying, whoa. Let's look at this another way.

  625. The Bible says that we are the apple of his

  626. eye hose. Yes, So this is a fixed point in

  627. space and a fixed point where he's looking at you

  628. right right, So you have this place in heaven is

  629. directly over a place on Earth. This is how celestial

  630. navigation is accomplished. This is exactly what the Magi did

  631. to get the baby Jesus right. Yes, they followed celestial navigation.

  632. They pinpointed this star and they walked until they were

  633. directly under it. They would have done this with a

  634. scope and a plumbob. Let me say that again, in

  635. ancient times, they would have did this with a scope

  636. and a plumb bob to make sure that the scope

  637. was looking at a right angle through the ground they

  638. were standing on. They did this until that star was

  639. directly over it. Guess where they was at. That's right,

  640. they were at the manger. When you know, that's the

  641. type of thing going on, it's pretty exciting. It makes sense.

  642. It makes mechanical sense what God is talking about prophetically.

  643. It makes what is written here makes sense mechanically because

  644. it is written prophetically. You know this verse is kind

  645. of chilling, hose, what do you think of verse ten?

  646. Surely go ahead, Matthew, go ahead.

  647. Surely the wrath of man shall praise you. With the

  648. remainder of wrath, you shall good yourself.

  649. I was just I was just looking at Matthew. I

  650. was just looking at that and I haven't figured this

  651. person out yet, Matthew. But yes, it's very intriguing what's

  652. being said here.

  653. Very intriguing.

  654. Huh yep.

  655. So do you remember God speaking in this language any

  656. other place?

  657. I can't. I can't think of anything right now, Matthew.

  658. Really, well, okay, we can let me bring up one,

  659. shall we amen? Psalms one?

  660. Six?

  661. Even they will perish, but you endure, and all of

  662. them wear out like a garment, like clothing. You will

  663. change them and they will be changed. So I'll just

  664. let it lie right there. I can say a whole

  665. lot more, but guess what. We only got six minutes left.

  666. So what's your further further comments on this. I need

  667. to give you time to just talk.

  668. I guess yeah, Matthew. This is just boy, God's just

  669. breaking down. What's going to happen when he stands up

  670. off his throne, when he does bring judgment, when it

  671. is that great and terrible day of the Lord. I

  672. think I think too much of today's church just doesn't

  673. talk about this. Matthew doesn't realize it's coming, doesn't realize

  674. that it is judgment. It is wrath that is coming

  675. upon the earth, and that's why we're told to spread

  676. the gospel. That's why we're told to share the love

  677. of his Son, to share the faithfulness of God, to

  678. just to do our to do what we're supposed to do,

  679. to work while there's still time, Matthew, to be salt

  680. on the earth, to be a light to those around us.

  681. It's not it's not just so we can get dressed

  682. up on Sundays and go to church. It's not just so,

  683. you know, we can sit in our rooms and study

  684. prophecy by ourselves and try to understand everything God's saying.

  685. It has to be shared, Matthew. It has to be

  686. you have to seek that lost sheep because I mean,

  687. every chapter we read, Matthew, we say the same things

  688. over and over. But this chapter is just it's so

  689. detailed and so explicit in what's going to happen. I mean,

  690. for God himself to say that he's going to stand up,

  691. he will arise and judge the earth. I don't know

  692. how you can get around it. I don't know how

  693. you can allegorize this. I don't know how you can,

  694. you know, make it into just a song of praise

  695. that was sung by you know, the ancient Israelites. I

  696. don't see how you can get around the fact that

  697. this is prophecy, this is God telling you what he's

  698. going to do. Because like we've read, Matthew, it matches

  699. up with with all the other books that we've been reading,

  700. versus Thessalonians chapter five, Hebrews chapter said, the books in

  701. Revelation that that we we talked about, you know, and

  702. we didn't even dig into Isaiah. I mean, it's it's

  703. all over the place, Matthew, God explicitly detailing you and

  704. telling you what's going to happen. And we're told that

  705. He is faithful and these things will come. We're told

  706. that yes, we're going to go through the birth payings,

  707. we're going to go through tribulation, but we will not

  708. go through the great tribulation. We will be gathered to

  709. a place that has been prepared. We will be gathered

  710. in His tabernacle, Matthew during these events. So that's that's

  711. just what I'm hoping that these simple toll verses bring across,

  712. and that that it rings true to what people have

  713. already heard, that that that it rings to what the

  714. gospel says, because Matthew, we we got into a lot

  715. of detail right now that that a lot of Christians

  716. don't cover. Even if you don't get into those details, Matthew,

  717. and you just read it for the plain text, it

  718. should give you hope, and it should give you praise

  719. and thanks that God is faithful to do this for

  720. us because we believe in his son, because we accept

  721. him as our savior, because we've we've rejected our past

  722. lives and we've been born again, Matthew, that this is

  723. this is what we're promised. And so you know, I

  724. just I just I'm just going to keep reiterating that

  725. that it's not all important for us to read our Bible, Matthew,

  726. but it's important for us to share it with others

  727. around us, because we know the more we read it,

  728. the more we're faithful to do what God tells us

  729. in his word, the more understanding he's going to give us.

  730. And it's up to us to share that understanding, Matthew.

  731. We can't keep it for ourselves. We can't put that

  732. light under a bushel. So I think that I think

  733. that's what I want to leave this reading of the

  734. song with.

  735. Amen. Amen, I agree with you. That's that's a good

  736. place to leave this psalm with you. Know, ladies and gentlemen,

  737. many of you have been taught many different things, all

  738. kinds of garbage is streaming from the pulpit. But you

  739. know something should ring true with you, and it's called

  740. the truth. It's something that you're hearing. It's not ringing true,

  741. it's probably because it's not. And I'm here to tell

  742. you that if there's only one correct Bible prophecy model,

  743. and it's the plane reading prophecy model, nobody made it up.

  744. The first three hundred years of the church, there was

  745. only one prophecy model that everyone believed. It was the

  746. plain reading prophecy model. You just plainly read the text

  747. and you just believe it. That's all you have to do.

  748. And when somebody says something that agrees with that, it'll

  749. ring true with you because you've read it before, even

  750. though you've forgotten it, it'll ring true with you. Is

  751. this not the truth?

  752. Hose Amen, Matthew.

  753. You don't need commentary to know what's to come, Ladies

  754. and gentlemen, you just need to read it, and for

  755. once in your life, don't read it like it's a

  756. time magazine. Don't read it like it's the funny papers.

  757. Don't read it like it's a novel, because it's not.

  758. You need to read it like it's the encyclopedia. And

  759. you do, things will begin to ring true with you. Hoose,

  760. please pray us out of here.

  761. Dear heavenly Father, whom we love and serve, I give

  762. thanks and praise to you once again for allowing us

  763. to gather together, for giving us this time and space

  764. to look into your word, to study it, to share

  765. with other Christians, and to edify other Christians, and to

  766. open to the eyes of those that are blind, Lord,

  767. and to open the ears of those who cannot hear. Father,

  768. I just asked that you reach out to your congregations,

  769. to your churches, those true Christians, those true believers that

  770. hold you in their heart, Lord, that follow your law,

  771. that hear your testimony and follow it. Lord, that you

  772. drive them to read your word. You drive them to

  773. study it and to understand it and to believe it.

  774. And Lord, that you drive them and drive us to

  775. share that word with everyone around us. That is what

  776. we're what we're told to do, to share that gift

  777. that you have given us, to share that understanding, to use,

  778. to use our reading of your word, to pray for others,

  779. to care for others, and above all, to share your

  780. love with others. And Lord, I just ask for more

  781. strength and more opportunities to do this, Lord, because we

  782. know that time is short. We know your day is near,

  783. and the day of your son is near. Father. We

  784. ask all this in the name of your son, our

  785. Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

  786. Amen, Amen and Amen. Until next time, ladies and gentlemen,

  787. God Bless God. Thank you for listening to Marinath the
