  4. Reduction Draweth Nigh. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the program.

  5. We are your hosts, Jose and Matthew Night. Where at a very special

  6. place here in these Songs of a Sense, this this Book of a Sense

  7. tonight. This is this is part ten and well, there's there's a lot

  8. here. Here's there's a lot we got to talk about. Let's get let's

  9. get Jose's opening comments on it. What's your thoughts? O? Well,

  10. Matthew again, it's it's when you read the Psalm, you get the feeling

  11. of you know, you've got all these Christians, all these believers who have

  12. faith, persecution, who have faith tribulation and distance where they see their everything

  13. they've struggled for and suffered for, when they see this realized, when you

  14. know what what's been promised to them. Right, what comes to mind is

  15. when you read through the Psalm is what the what the martyrs say under the

  16. altar and the fifth sealed in their relations have to shit. They actually gave

  17. their gave their lives for God and for their belief, and you know they're

  18. they're still praying, they're saying, God, you promised that, you know

  19. what, Now at the time now for that promise to come true. That

  20. that's the feeling I get in here, Matthew. Yeah, when you read

  21. it, I can read it for myself and I can I can apply it

  22. to my trouble that I'm going through today. But we know, Matthew,

  23. everything in the Bible is prophetic, so that that's where we have to turn

  24. our eyes to you. Yeah, that's that's where we inevitably have to go

  25. to We and we should have to go down that road, no doubt about

  26. it. But you know, what you said is really very very pointed.

  27. It's a whole lot more pointed than you think, and and I appreciate that.

  28. But let's let's do this. Let's let's talk about where we're at,

  29. because some of the phraseology here takes you back only to one other place we've

  30. been before. But ladies and gentlemen, what Jose said is very important.

  31. And let me just ask Cose. So this group in question that you're talking

  32. about, these martyrs, their number gets fulfilled, right, I mean literally,

  33. they're given white robes, and they're literally specifically told this to wait a

  34. little while longer until the number of their station was fulfilled. So, ladies

  35. and gentlemen, you should realize the first numbering to take place is the very

  36. next chapter. That is the first group of one hundred and forty four thousand.

  37. That's literally what that verse says. And there is no beating around the

  38. bush. I mean, that is exactly what is stated here. Let me

  39. let's just take the time to jump over there to Revelation chapter six and the

  40. fifth seal, because it's very pointed what has told them, And there was

  41. given to each of them a white robe, and they were told that they

  42. should rest for a little while longer until the number of their fellow servants and

  43. their brethren who were to be killed, even as they had been, would

  44. be completed. Also, now, what a terrible thing to find out.

  45. I mean, ladies and gentlemen, let's be obvious one with another. This

  46. statement was very pointed. First and foremost you should know this is only talking

  47. about males, isn't it, Jose, Yes, it gives two identifiers their

  48. fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed even as they had been

  49. and this number had already been decided. Jose, what group is this group?

  50. Are they? Do they partake in the marriage supper of the Lamb?

  51. Do they get they? No? No? What is their job? Their

  52. job to protect the bride? Yes, they rule and reign with Christ per

  53. Revelation chapter twenty. Correct. So when phraseology comes up in here somebody directing

  54. you to say something, you should immediately know who it's talking about. Now,

  55. I've said this very thing in the classroom setting, and I've just had

  56. people floored. They're like, what are you talking about? I said,

  57. we've talked about this type of thing before. You know that you are not

  58. going to rule and rn with Christ. That's not part of a marriage.

  59. So we've heard this before and one other song, and this song and that

  60. psalm makes the book of a sense a triad, and I say that it

  61. is shocks the psyche. Well, like, wait a minute, I thought

  62. you said there was two apptads. Well, ladies and gentlemen, can you

  63. count on your fingers, there's five before, five in the middle, and

  64. five after. So let's take a look at this Psalms one, twenty one,

  65. twenty one, twenty two, twenty three, and twenty four is five.

  66. Add five more and you get to where we're at tonight, and ladies

  67. and gentlemen. This phrase, let is real say is also found in Psalm

  68. one twenty four. Yes it is, Yes it is. Let me say

  69. that again. I'm probably confusing most of you. Okay, Look, there's

  70. one twenty one, twenty one, one, twenty two, one, twenty

  71. three. Psalm one twenty four is number five. It states in there,

  72. let Israel say. Then you have twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven,

  73. twenty eight, and this one is the fifth one Pal one twenty nine.

  74. It says, let is real say? And then the last five is

  75. thirty thirty one, thirty two, thirty three and thirty four. This creates,

  76. This turns what is already a set of heptads into a triad. This

  77. Psalm and some one twenty four, it creates five before five in the middle

  78. of five to after. Do you understand what I'm saying? Hose is that

  79. too complicated? No? No, that makes that so we haven't even read

  80. it yet. But right now we got to jump back to that psalm and

  81. take a look at it. It's really easy to do. You go back

  82. to Psalm one twenty four and it stares you right in the face. Let

  83. Israel, now say verse one right off the top of the bat. We

  84. should have always been asking each other, Well, wait a minute, who

  85. is instructing us to say something? I did lightly talk about this before,

  86. right, Jose, Yeah, but lightly, I didn't drag it into the

  87. dark because we had not got to this one yet. We had not gone

  88. to this Psalm yet. So you need to know that Psalms one twenty four,

  89. Psalms one twenty nine. They turn the Book of a sense into a

  90. triad, and now that you know who it's talking about, because oh,

  91. we're not done. There's direct references to the Book of Revelation, direct references

  92. to Isaiah, direct references to that most infamous chapter of Chapters Judges chapter chapter

  93. five, and the War in Heaven. So, but these things are not

  94. even the important things, to be honest with you, because it's almost like

  95. this Psalm is disjointed out of time, because it's almost like it's almost like

  96. this is built off of Tewod Corinthians chapter four, even though that can't be

  97. the case. Now, everybody should know, that's a pretty famous chapter because

  98. a Christian rock group that's called Jars of Clay. That's that stanza is where

  99. they get this these This stanza is where they get that that title from Jars

  100. of Clay. Even though it's not in the kjav or in the New American

  101. Standard Bible, the term Jars of Clay is in the English Standard version.

  102. But anyway, I've probably got your gears turning. I probably even have Jose's

  103. gears turning. Actually, so here we go again, I mean a really

  104. shortened to the point. I mean, come on, ladies and gentlemen,

  105. what what could you possibly get out of this? I mean, we're less

  106. than ten verses. What could possibly be here? When you read it in

  107. English? I mean it's a nice read, right, Jose, Yes it

  108. is. I mean it's a it's a very pleasant read and reassuring that no

  109. matter what happens, uh, you know, we're going to be taken care

  110. of. But it should have always caught your attention. Who's telling us to

  111. say something? Because once again, let's make sure everybody has this down pack.

  112. Who is Israel? Israel is enough? Matthew, that's right? Yes,

  113. So that that follow the sun follow Jesus Christ. You know what what

  114. we would call Christians today, but we're talking about those that are true Christians,

  115. because you know, there's many that are Christian name only. But yeah,

  116. essentially those that understand that Jesus Christ is their savior, is their redeemer,

  117. and that's what they have their hopeing and understand what God's talking about when

  118. he's talking about the His body being the temple, establishing the Kingdom of God

  119. on earth as it is in heaven. You know that this is you know

  120. this, this all adds into it. But yes, that we are instant

  121. one things for sure. You're really going to have that rammed down in Second

  122. Corinthians chapter four. You're you're really going to have that rammed down. A

  123. very complicated chapter. You know, we we we're not going to look into

  124. the original languages of Second Corinthians chapter four. That's just way too much to

  125. bite off because we have to we have to concentrate here and we have to

  126. concentrate on what is to come. So who read last time? Jose was

  127. it you or me? Yep? I think I did. Matthew, Oh

  128. you read? So now I get to read? All right? Good deal.

  129. So Psalms one nine. This is now write this down, ladies and

  130. gentlemen. This is chapter ten in the Book of a Sense. It's chapter

  131. ten. Remember, someone is commanding the chosen people to say something, just

  132. like the fifth chapter did. The fifth chapter of the Book of a Sense

  133. is Psalm one twenty four. This is chapter ten. So this is Psalm

  134. one twenty nine, a song of a sense. Many times they have persecuted

  135. me from my youth up. Let Israel now say, many times they have

  136. persecuted me from my youth up. Yet they have not prevailed against me.

  137. The plowers plowed upon my back, they lengthen their furrows. The Lord is

  138. righteous. He has cut in two chords of the wicked. May all who

  139. hate Zion be put to shame and turn backward. Let them be like grass

  140. upon the housetops, which withers before it grows up, with which the reaper

  141. does not feel his hand, or the binder of sheaves his bosom. Nor

  142. do those who pass by say, the blessing of the Lord is upon you.

  143. We bless you in the name of the Lord. Oh, my goodness,

  144. you know that last verse really does stick it. I mean that,

  145. I mean, ladies, and gentlemen, if you if anyway I read it,

  146. hose your your comments, please, So, Matthew, this is this

  147. is where I you know, I say that it reminds me of what the

  148. martyrs are saying in the Revelations chapter six, because if if you can,

  149. if you can picture someone who's you know, tried their hardest to follow God's

  150. commandments, tried their hardest to follow the beatitude, you know, read their

  151. Bible, prayed continuously, you know, thack office so much to help others

  152. around them, you know, which is what we imagine the martyrs being,

  153. right when we read the stories of the martyrs, and yet they still end

  154. up end up dying, Matthew, they still end up being killed for their

  155. faith. And you can look at it and you can say, well that's

  156. not fair. You can look at it and say, well, God's not

  157. futilit in his promises. But still even though they that these martyrs have died

  158. for believing and having faith in God and in his son, they they're still

  159. they're still there praying, and they're still there believing in the promises that God

  160. gave them. And so that's what that's what I get when I read this,

  161. this, this chapter Matthew this song uh and and it was kind of

  162. reinforced because where it took me to was Hosea, chapter eleven, the first

  163. stand up. So if I can, I'll read the first four verses for

  164. us, because it hadn't here. And this dans of the words youth and

  165. the word chord, which we see and saw one twenty nine. So it

  166. says, when Israel was a youth, I loved him, and out of

  167. Egypt I called my son. The more they called them, the more they

  168. went from them. They kept sacrificing to the ball and burning incense to idols.

  169. Yet it is I who taught Frian to walk. I took them in

  170. my arms, but they did not know that I healed them. I led

  171. them with chords of a man, with bonds of love. And I became

  172. to them as one who lists the yoke from their jobs. And I bent

  173. down and sad them. And so I mean, you know this, This

  174. describes how a martyr math you can keep enduring even through persecution and tribulation.

  175. God himself has to come down and feed you spiritually, because otherwise you can't

  176. endure. Otherwise you're going to break. Otherwise you're going to take them art

  177. right like we're told. So this dad that here match is perfectly nine for

  178. me, Matthew. And and then when you add in the fact that it's

  179. talking about the balls and the idols, well that's who persecuted the prophets,

  180. right, Matthew. And in the Old Testiments, as the prophets were trying

  181. to go and spread God's word and warn the people, his bigger, biggest

  182. persecutors were those that worship ball and set up set up their temples and their

  183. altars the ball to try to again because they hate they hate Zion like we're

  184. told them only nine. So that's where this alm led me initially, Matthew.

  185. Well, yes, that was That's one of the primary things. I

  186. mean, my cross references I have was to that very place. And you

  187. know what, let me just ask everybody this who who was misleading Israel?

  188. There was the one that was burning this incense to the bales. Who was

  189. doing that, lazy gentlemen? Was the priest? They had gone so far

  190. right of center. And I hope all of you have taken a listen to

  191. jose and I's series on the Slaughter of the Shepherds, because the passage is

  192. that he read from. And well, they speak to that, don't they?

  193. Who was misleading Israel? Jose it was the clergy? Yes, and

  194. take note, who in this circumstance would be ordering Israel to say something.

  195. It's here, it's interwoven, of course, the clergy. Who's going to

  196. be the clergy during the millennial reign of Christ. Who's going to be the

  197. clergy? There is no debating what God himself says. It's very clear who

  198. the clergy is. And in Revelation chapter twenty, just go take a look

  199. at it. It's very clear it states. And you know, I don't

  200. suggest anybody try to tear apart Revelation chapter eleven, verse four if you don't

  201. have any experience with quinny of Greek, because you talk about a complicated verse,

  202. you might as well say this is a paragraphic Greek. But anyway,

  203. then I saw thrones, and they that set on them, a judgment was

  204. given to them. I saw the souls who had been beheaded because of their

  205. testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had

  206. not worshiped the beast or his image, had not received the mark on their

  207. forehead and on their hand and they came to life and bringed with Christ for

  208. a thousand years period period period. That's your clergy. Now take note,

  209. this actually finished the verse that I read from in Revelation chapter six. I

  210. mean it come right out and said that these had been killed. That's that's

  211. the problem here. These are the ones that had been killed. And you

  212. heard me read from Revelation chapter six. Ladies and gentlemen, it was very

  213. clear what God was saying to those under the altar. I'll read it again,

  214. verse eleven. There was given to each of them a white robe,

  215. and they were told that they should rest for a little while longer until the

  216. number of their fellows, nervants, and their brethren who were to be killed

  217. even as they had been, would be completed. Also, so you need

  218. to know who is going to be ordering you to say something as you go

  219. up to celebrate the feast of boost and the millennial reign of Christ. Remember

  220. this is all from Zachariah chapter fourteen. This is all from Zachariah chapter fourteen.

  221. This is going to happen, And now you know who's going to be

  222. leading the freight, because right in the middle, I mean, God did

  223. this so mechanically perfect. It's gonna blow your mind. First, he tells

  224. you in the at the end of the first triad, and he reminds you

  225. at the second triad. You can't get around who is who is leading up

  226. the people as they traverse the great plane of the earth to get Jerusalem for

  227. the feast of booths once a year. And it's been perfectly woven into this

  228. very short chapter in marvelous ways, in marvelous ways. It's been woven in

  229. a year in marvelous way. You know. Let's take a look here.

  230. Let me ask you this, Jose, how many antagonists does this chapter mention?

  231. Well, ladies and gentlemen on the surface, if you just read this

  232. in English, it should come out to you pretty clear. Verse three says

  233. the flowers. Verse seven says the reapers, or some translations say the mowers.

  234. But you know, basically the same thing. To cut down, these

  235. are the antagonists here. But you know, for for time's sake, I

  236. better talk about what needs to be talked about. I've already mentioned, uh,

  237. Second Corinthians, Chapter four, the ladies and gentlemen, and that can

  238. add one thing, Matthew, before you move on, Oh sure, get

  239. to add on to what you're saying about the priests leading Israel Austraight. You

  240. know in the past, when I read my Bible or I've heard the stories,

  241. right, I pictured is that that the sacrifices to the balls are are

  242. occurring on other altars on other high mountains away from the Temple of God.

  243. But in seventeen sixteen, and we've gone over this, when they has has

  244. has your riot, the priest actually build the altar inside the Temple of God.

  245. That's that's how far it went. Where the high priest himself followed the

  246. orders of the king and built an altar to to strange God inside the House

  247. of God and actually did sacrifice it inside the Temple of God. That that's

  248. how that's how far down it went, right, And and you know,

  249. we know that's an example of what's going to happen what we're told about in

  250. the Book of Revelation with the with the beast and with the false prophet.

  251. I mean, that's exactly what they're going to do when they when they raised

  252. that that idol and Revelation thirteen and force everyone to worship it. So you

  253. know, it's not it's not it's not just the simple you know, driving

  254. people astray. It's it's it was way worse than that, Matthew. Actually,

  255. you know, actually doing God's safe and sensus you know, oh yeah,

  256. oh yeah, absolutely, And it's a good thing you brought that chapter

  257. because you're right back to the days of Elijah. How long does the New

  258. Testament twice? It says it twice. How long was the days of Elijah?

  259. It says exactly three years and six months. You're supposed to know the

  260. Great Tribulation is mimicked in that, and that is when Elijah was dancing with

  261. Jezebel. I mean, this is I mean, if you can't and you

  262. can't put two and two together, we don't have time to do it right

  263. here now, I wanted to bring up so is are you good with that

  264. part, Jose or did you have more to all right, no, Matthew,

  265. So let's go back to verse two. It says, many times they

  266. have persecuted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me,

  267. ladies and general. I'm i'm, I mean, there's no way around

  268. Second Corinthians, Chapter four. I mean, let me just piecemeal out of

  269. here, verses eight and nine. We are afflicted in every way, but

  270. not crushed, perplexed but not despairing, persecuted and not forsaken, struck down

  271. but not destroyed. That's first say, I mean that is that one verse

  272. is Psalm. But boy does this chapter have some very staunch theology in it.

  273. I'm gonna start reading this, this entire stanza here, which is verse

  274. seven through twelve. And take note this first verse here. You're gonna hear

  275. me say earth and vessels, but the English Standard version says jars of clay,

  276. which both both translations work. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels,

  277. so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not

  278. from ourselves. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed, perplexed

  279. but not despairing, persecuted but not forsaken, struck down but not destroyed.

  280. Always caring about in the body the dying of Jesus, so that the life

  281. of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. For we who live are

  282. constantly being delivered over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of

  283. Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So death works in us,

  284. but life in you. Now, ladies and gentlemen, the verses I

  285. just read. If you didn't understand the verse that I read from in Revelation

  286. chapter six and the one from Revelation chapter twenty, I mean, you do

  287. understand this group we're talking about one hundred and forty four thousand. This is

  288. why the Lord Jesus Christ has the name krow totkoas Necros. He is the

  289. first foreign from the dead. These are the ones who follow him. I

  290. mean, when you put two and two together, ladies and gentlemen startling,

  291. it's almost like verses seven through twelve of Second Corinthians chapter four. It's almost

  292. like it's written in future hints, and it is talking about this group of

  293. resurrected martyr. Now take note, they obviously had to be somewhere that you

  294. weren't, right Jose, Yeah, I mean, ladies and gentlemen, I

  295. want you to think about your theology. You know full well that God tells

  296. you that there will be those who are alive and remain correct Jose correct,

  297. It should be perfectly obvious to you, ladies and gentlemen, that they were

  298. someplace different than you. Now, I strongly suggest that you go check out

  299. the series Jose and I did on the Slaughter of the Shepherds, because God

  300. talks about this more than once, doesn't he Jose ypes he does. And

  301. ladies and gentlemen, boy, this chapter is a lot. It's it's a

  302. lot to bite off. This is Oh my goodness, Hose, would you

  303. do us a favor and just take the time to read all eighteen verses of

  304. this chapter. Second Corinthians, Chapter four, Yeah, I can do that.

  305. Please do all right, I'm reading now the NAFB ninety five. Therefore,

  306. since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not

  307. lose heart. But we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not

  308. walking in cracktiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of

  309. truth, amending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. And

  310. even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,

  311. in whose case the God of this world has blinded the minds of the

  312. unbelieving, so that they might not see the light of the Gospel, of

  313. the glory of Christ with the image of God. But we do not preach

  314. our selves for Christ, Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond servants,

  315. for Jesus sake. For God who said light shall shine out of darkness,

  316. it is the one who has shown in our hearts to give the light

  317. of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. But

  318. we have this treasure in earth and vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of

  319. the power will be of God and not from ourselves. We are afflicted in

  320. every way, but not crushed, perplexed but not despairing, persecuted but not

  321. forsakens, struck down but not destroyed. Always caring about in the body the

  322. dying of Jesus, so that the lives of Jesus also may be manifested in

  323. our body. But we who live are constantly being delivered over to death for

  324. jesus sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our

  325. mortal flesh. So death works in us, but life in you. But

  326. having the same spirit of faith. According to what is written, I believed,

  327. therefore I spoke, We also believe. Therefore we also speak, knowing

  328. that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus, and

  329. will present us with you. For all things are for your sakes, so

  330. that the grace which is spreading to more and more people may cause the giving

  331. the thanks to a bound to the glory of God. Therefore we do not

  332. lose heart, but through our outer man is decaying, Yet our inner man

  333. is being renewed day by day, for momentary light affliction is producing for an

  334. eternal weight of glory, far beyond all comparison. While we look not at

  335. the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen.

  336. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not

  337. seen are eternal. Well, the headicap of their Matthew, does that not

  338. in great detail? If you have eyes to see this details in great detail

  339. this particular group, doesn't it? Jose? Yes, and yep. It's

  340. enough to blow your mind once you know what you're looking at. Once you

  341. know what you're looking at, you're like, wait a minute, it's enough

  342. to to blow your mind. Let's get to the prophecy part of this,

  343. shall we. You know, ladies and gentlemen, I have here my nats

  344. the New English translation of the Subcugin. Let me read for you what you

  345. know what, Let's go ahead and go back to the Mesoretic, and how

  346. does it say? It says it says many times they have persecuted me from

  347. my youth. Up. Let Israel say, many times they have persecuted me

  348. from my youth. Up. This is what the subculagion says, often they

  349. have made war against me from my youth. Do let Israel say often they

  350. made war against me from my youth. Out of all the things I could

  351. share with you, what this chapter is showing you, I'm going to take

  352. you to the most obvious of places. It's really staring you right in the

  353. face. Because ladies and gentlemen in Greek, this is G forty one seventy.

  354. It's G forty one seventy. Oh mao, oh mao. You know

  355. what's enough to blow your mind? Is this case and form. This exact

  356. case informs only one time in the New Testament, just once, concerning this

  357. exact group Revelation, Chapter twelve, verse seven. And there was war in

  358. heaven Michael his angels waging war, and the dragon and the dragon and his

  359. angels raged war. Now take note it's also in the last verse, verse

  360. seventeen, So the dragon was enraged with the woman on one off to make

  361. war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and

  362. hold to the testimony of Jesus. And of course you know how they died,

  363. don't you. I already read it to you how they die. I

  364. already read it to you why they died. Because there is a certain number

  365. of them that had to be smartred. There was literally a numerical requirement.

  366. And if you were looking at the Greek you would have saw these words.

  367. Now, the exact case and form that's in verse seven, But here in

  368. verse seventeen, it's a different case, same word. Ladies and gentlemen,

  369. jose and I have told you, and told you, and told you and

  370. told you this. It's the other group of one hundred and forty four thousand

  371. that triggers the war in verse seven. That's the war in heaven, the

  372. war that occurs on us or them? Shall I say, is the dragon

  373. goes off to kill the rest of them. I mean, it's to me,

  374. it's so plain in the text. It's startling. But ladies and gentlemen,

  375. this exact case and form is also in Judges chapter five, verse twenty.

  376. I'll read it for you out of the New American Standard Bible. The

  377. stars of heaven fought from heaven, from the courses, they fought against Sisera.

  378. The torret of the Kashan swept them away. The ancient torre it the

  379. tort Kishon. Oh my soul, march on with strength. Then the horse's

  380. hoofs beat from dashing, the dashing of his valiant deeds. Curse Murrahs,

  381. said the Angel of the Lord, utterly curse its inhabitants, because they did

  382. not come to the help of the Lord. To the help of the Lord

  383. against the warriors. Now, I'm not going to spend a whole lot of

  384. time doing exe Jesus here. Yes, this is a reference to the war

  385. in heaven and a direct reference to the one third of the angels which Satan

  386. will drag out of heaven with his tail. It just told you the leader,

  387. so to speak. So Psalms chapter one nine had a whole lot more

  388. to say than anybody thought. But on the backdrop of Second Corinthians chapter four,

  389. Jose, wouldn't you call that almost overwhelming? Yes? It is,

  390. yep. I mean, if you don't have eyes that concede before you read

  391. the eighteen verses of Second Corinthians chapter four. You do afterword? I mean

  392. you and I have talked about this group hundreds of times, right, Jose,

  393. Yes, And let's not be around the bush. Obviously. Verse eight

  394. is directly taken from the Hebrew text of Psalm one verse two. I mean

  395. you might as well say it was built off of it, right, right,

  396. or vice versa. So it's amazing how you can't put two and two

  397. together until you get your hands in the Bible, God's Holy Word. I

  398. mean, it really is enough to blow your mind, yeah, Matthew.

  399. And and and when you read as you were reading those verses, what what

  400. it reinforced for me? And what with the other verses it that it may

  401. bring sue for me? Were verses like like Matthew ten twenty eight right where

  402. Jesus says, do not fear those who will kill the body but are unable

  403. to kill the soul, but rather fear him who is able to destroy both

  404. soul and body in hell. And I mean, that's that's exactly what we're

  405. talking about here, Matthew, God God telling you don't don't worry about that

  406. physical persecution because you know your soul is going to be intact. Well,

  407. it goes farther than that. Say that quote again plays all right at the

  408. NFB. It says, I do not be afraid of those who kill the

  409. body but are unable to kill the soul, but rather fear him who is

  410. able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Okay, ladies and gentlemen,

  411. now is Jose putting that two and two together? These they're not gonna

  412. go to hell. Ladies and gentlemen, open your eyes. Look, look,

  413. let me just read the entire passage. Okay, I need to read

  414. the whole thing so everybody gets what's he's saying. Ladies and gentlemen. The

  415. Lord Jesus Christ is directly pointing you to the group that's gonna rule and reign

  416. with him. And he just said, look, they're not gonna go to

  417. Hades. When the lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar.

  418. Let me read that one more time. Maybe it confused you. When

  419. the lamb broke the fifth Seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of

  420. those who had been slain because of the Word of God and because of the

  421. testimony which they had maintained and they cried out with a loud voice, saying,

  422. how long, o Lord, Holy and true, will you refrain from

  423. judging at you know, avenging? Out were blood on those who dwell on

  424. the earth. And there was given to each of them a white robe.

  425. And they were told that they should rest for a little while longer until the

  426. number of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed, even

  427. as they had been, would be completed. Also, and take note,

  428. even the disciples didn't understand that Jesus was speaking prophetically. But how many that

  429. were listening to his voice that day, how many of them were martyred?

  430. Jose Right, So when you have eyes that can see, oh my goodness,

  431. you can see past the horizon, you can understand what twilight is.

  432. Which twilight, ladies and gentlemen, it's eight degrees it's eight degrees below the

  433. horizon. That's what it is. You know. We could never spend too

  434. much time in Second Corinthians chapter four. I mean, now that we've let

  435. the cat out of the bag, people are I mean, especially people that

  436. have participated in this ministry for over a decade. They're like, wait a

  437. minute, this is what it's talking about. Now backup, ladies and gentlemen.

  438. Yes, Second Corinthians Chapter four is definitely talking about the Church and those

  439. who are saying it is talking about those things, isn't it, Jose?

  440. Yes, But once you see the prophetic side of it, oh my goodness,

  441. this is absolutely talking about those of the First Resurrection. It's not talking

  442. about anybody else. And it's just chilling to think that. I mean,

  443. once you know all of this, you have to sit there and think to

  444. yourself. Yeah, but the Psalms was written first. Psalms one in twenty

  445. nine was written thousands of years before, I mean, completely disconnected in time,

  446. and yet it took both. I mean, we've taught a lot today

  447. from the mesoretic text. That's what we read this out of. We read

  448. this from the Hebrew. We used a New American Standard Bible. But that's

  449. what we built the whole lesson around of this. This from the subtuction,

  450. and I only covered one word, but you'll take note that it was a

  451. binary code. Jose read for as Psalms one twenty nine out of the New

  452. American Standard Bible. Again, please right, a song of a sense.

  453. Many times they have persecceeded me from my youth up that Israel now say many

  454. times they have persecuted me from my youth up, Yet they had not prevailed

  455. against me. The plowers plowed upon my back, they lengthen their furrows.

  456. The Lord is righteous, he has cut into the chords of the wicked.

  457. May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backwards. Let them

  458. be like grass upon the hottops, which withers before it grows up, with

  459. which the reaper does not fill his hand, or the binder of sheaves his

  460. bosom. Nor do those who pass by say, the blessing of the Lord

  461. be upon you. We bless you in the name of the Lord. Okay,

  462. so you got that down pretty pat right, Jose, Yeah, let

  463. me rattle your cage. This is from the nets, ladies and gentlemen,

  464. an ode of the steps. Often they made war against me from my youth.

  465. Do let Israel say often they made war against me from my youth.

  466. Indeed they did not prevail against me on my back. The sinners were practicing

  467. their skill. They prolonged their lawlessness. The Righteous Lord hut up necks of

  468. sinners. Let all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backward.

  469. Let them become like grass on rooftops that withered before it was pulled out,

  470. with which no reaper filled his hands. And a gatherer of sheeves the folds

  471. of his garment. And those who were passing by did not say, the

  472. blessing of the Lord be upon you. We have blessed you in the name

  473. of the Lord. Did you catch that? For next ose? Mm hm,

  474. yep. The Righteous Lord cut up next of sinners. I mean,

  475. it's pretty plain to this text, Jose that if somebody would have just thought

  476. to read it in the Septusian, it would have got your attention. Let

  477. me read verse four out of another Septusian. This is the Lexum Septus.

  478. In verse four, the Righteous Lord cut off the necks of sin ladies and

  479. gentlemen. And if you need a hint, you ain't got a clue.

  480. The Bible, God's Holy Word is a binary language. It's binary. It's

  481. ones and zeros, it's ones and zeros, it's Hebrew and Greek. Now,

  482. if this is the first time you've ever participated in the Maranatha ministries,

  483. you'll know full well you've never heard no one say that before. But I

  484. can prove to you beyond any shadow of doubt, the message being related here

  485. in Hebrew or Greek can only be talking about your clergy inside the millennial reign

  486. of Christ. And I'm going to tell you right now, when they whistle,

  487. you're going to reply, because when they say many times they fought against

  488. me from my youth, you're going to repeat after them. Oh, yes

  489. you are. Now. It's probably shocking to you. You're probably scrambling thinking

  490. to yourself, well, I don't remember what Some one twenty four said?

  491. What does that have to offer? Did we not cover that? Jose?

  492. Yes he did. I mean, we obviously don't have time to go back

  493. through that whole chapter, do we. Nope? So, Jose, how

  494. many verses are in some one twenty nine? Let me come back there.

  495. I count eight versus Matthew. Well, guess how many's in some one twenty

  496. four? Jose, eight, that's right. Eight verses? Read it a

  497. song of a sense of David. Had it not been the Lord who was

  498. on our side? Let Israel now say, had it not been the Lord

  499. who was on our side when men rose up against us, then they would

  500. have swallowed us a lie when their anger was kindled against us. Ladies and

  501. gentlemen, are you hearing something? Because I am I know who was swallowed

  502. up by their earth? Do you remember that in numbers hose Yep, Let

  503. me keep breathing. Not that I want to stop. I'm just pointing it

  504. out. When their anger was kindled against us, when the waters would have

  505. engulfed us, the stream would have swept over our soul. Then the raging

  506. waters would have swept over our soul. Blessed be the Lord who has not

  507. given us to be born by their teeth. Our soul has escaped as a

  508. bird out of a snare of a trapper. The snare is broken, and

  509. we have escaped. Our help is the name of the Lord who made the

  510. heaven and earth. What's this saying? Ladies and gentlemen, Now that I've

  511. read it to you, now you understand this duality. It's having the clergy

  512. that's telling you to say this. They were not you were. There is

  513. a guff of separation between you. You have been taken to a place prepared

  514. exactly like Revelation Chapter twelve states and guess what that's right? This group.

  515. Once the devil saw that he couldn't engage you and hurt you. What does

  516. it say? So the dragon was arranged with the woman and went off to

  517. make war with the rest of her children. It just stated some one four

  518. stated that you were delivered from that snare, but they want you were delivered,

  519. but the rest of her children were not. I'll read this verse again.

  520. So the dragon was a rachel woman and went off to make what was

  521. the rest of her children? Who keep the commandments of God and holds the

  522. testimony of Jesus. Imagine the things you could have learned about this group if

  523. somebody would have just told you, Hey, by the way, you need

  524. to know that the Book of a Sense is a triad. You have the

  525. first five, the second five, and the third five. And if you

  526. don't know those chapters that broke in between twenty four and twenty nine, just

  527. imagine how much you could have figured out if you'd have known all this beforehand.

  528. Ladies and gentlemen, you could have made up this Bible lesson for me

  529. and jose to do. But once you know, once you can see beyond

  530. the words, it will blow the doors off your mind. It'll blow the

  531. lids off your eyeballs. Now, I mean, just what we covered.

  532. I mean, let me read that stanza again. I've got to read this

  533. stanza again from Second Corinthians, chapter four, verse seven through twelve. But

  534. we have the treasure in earthen vessels, so that surpassing greatness of power will

  535. be of God and not from ourselves. We are afflicted in every way,

  536. but not crushed, perplexed but not despairing, persecuted but not forsaken, struck

  537. down but not destroyed. Who else could this be talking about? Ladies and

  538. gentlemen? Revelation chapter seven said, this angel arises, the angel who marks

  539. for death a man Jose amen ded. Did we not do an episode on

  540. that he who marks for death? Yes, he says, everybody, Wait,

  541. I've got to seal these first, and he seals them and then they're

  542. martyred. Who else is this they get beheaded? Let me finish reading verse

  543. ten, always caring about in the body the dying of Jesus, who,

  544. Jose, don't play games with me. Who else could he possibly be talking

  545. about except the rest of those who have risen from the dead. I mean,

  546. his name is Crow Totko Gross. He's the firstborn from the dead.

  547. This is the rest of the group who else could I be talking about.

  548. Nope, no one else, Matthew. That's that's it lines up with everything

  549. else that we've been reading. I mean, let me read that again,

  550. always caring about in the body, the dying of Jesus, so that the

  551. life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body, For we who live

  552. are constantly being delivered over to death for jesus sake, so that the life

  553. of Jesus may also be manifested in our mortal flesh. So death works in

  554. us, but life in you, ladies and gentlemen. This verse, I

  555. just read it. That's talking about the bride. Death reigns in those of

  556. the First Resurrection, but life reigns in the bride. That's enough to blow

  557. your mind, isn't it. Jose, Yes, the ends matth. Time

  558. for closing comments, What say you, jose Oh, Matthew, just a

  559. couple of closing comments, Matthew. Ten eight. The word for hell there

  560. is cahanda, which is where we're told that the beef and everyone that took

  561. the marks is thrown into because they took the mark. And so that contract

  562. that Jesus put for a is showing that distinction those that take the mark of

  563. the beats and those that don't. And then, of course I think the

  564. listeners should read the letters just to the Church and Smyrna in Revelations chapter two.

  565. Is that expound not more and more on what we've been talking about than

  566. the exact same thing. Don't fear those who can destroy the body, but

  567. him who can destroy the soul. So those are my clothes and comments in

  568. the Matthew. Aymen, aymen, you know what. I think. I'll

  569. take a look at that after we're done. All right, ladies and gentlemen,

  570. let's close this out in prayer. Dear heavenly Father, whom we serve

  571. through your son and our savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, please fill us

  572. with your holy Spirit of Lord, so that we will be pleasing and acceptable

  573. in your sights, Oh Lord, our Rock and our redeemer. Dear Lord,

  574. please open our eyes so that we can see. Open our ears so

  575. that we can hear what your spirit is saying to the Church's Lord, we

  576. hold fast to the promises that you have stated the Spirit of Truth would come

  577. to us and show us what is to come. Give us the strength and

  578. the courage to implement your plans for our life. Dear Lord, I pray

  579. that you send your Holy Spirit to heal the minds of the listeners that have

  580. been that have scarring on their psyche from false teaching. There's nothing for it

  581. but you, Oh Lord Lord. Please, I I pray that you might

  582. give someone that's listening to my voice simians assurance. Let one of us be

  583. given Simian's assurance. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I pray

  584. Amen and Amen Amen. Until next time, ladies and gentlemen, God bless

  585. God speed. Thank you for listening to Marinath the Ministries with Matthew Miller.
