Tape in Sight | Elder Terence Atkinson

You're listening to a message to go from a church. We hope this message

will light up your day. If you remember the last time when I was

here, Um, I spoke to you about Jesus concerns, right, and

uh you can you can show we did this one the colorful pyramid. Remember

that Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Somebody we remember that we did this last time.

Well, you know we talked about you know, our basic needs being

met. That's fine. And then after when our basic needs are met,

we want a little bit more. And when those needs are met, we

want a little bit more. So the first three from the bottom actually quite

good, you know, air, water, security, friendship, so on

and so forth. And then we come to uh something, it goes a

little bit higher esteem and self actualization. If you look at these two particularly

points, they have to do with you feeling good about yourself in a way

that others got to prop you up, that others got to feed your ego,

that our others got to you know, it's much more than just getting

your needs met. Now, you want other people to know who you are.

You know, I'm a woman, I'm strong and all that kind of

thing. You know what I mean or I'm the man who you know,

did Amazon and I can fly into space, you know that kind of stuff.

Ah. Yeah, So basically we talk about esteem and self actualization.

We're talking about something that requires you to be propped up and looked upon by

the rest of humanity as somebody great. And I remember saying that there's this

guy, Salvin hugheso says that these two without Jesus Christ involved in it is

wrong. Right. Well, as the Lord began to speak to me,

and as the Lord began to drive this home, the danger of this apex

esteem and self actualization is actually the very thing that signals the return of Jesus

Christ. Ooh, how many of you even believe Jesus Christ is coming again?

Can I see as your hands? You'll be surprised it's not your unanimous

But that's okay because the world has actually grown so dull India belief that Jesus

Christ will return. You know, the wonderful thing about the Word of God

is it does not depend upon our belief. The wonderful thing about the Word

of God is it depends upon what God has said. And if God has

said it, I believe it, and I believe it because he said it,

and I know, yes, I know, the Lord is good to

see me rule. So the Word of God has said that Jesus Christ is

coming again. But you know, it's not difficult to understand why many of

us don't really believe it. Now. Those of you that accepted the Lord

in the seventies, raise your hands. Very few of us, okay,

in the seventies, we believe the Lord in the seventies. How many of

you know that in the seventies everybody was talking about the second the second coming

of the Lord, Jesus Christ, the return of the Lord. And this

was on your lips every day. When was the last time we spoke about

it? For me, the last time I've been speaking about it for about

you know, quite a few months now, right. But the rest of

us, do we even believe Jesus Christ is coming again? Yeah? Yeah,

yeah, I believe He's coming. Not in my lifetime. Really.

I tell my children this, you know, very often. In fact,

I think it makes them fed up with you. Hear me said, I

said, Jesus Christ is coming again so soon. They're probably the two people

that you know are going to miss his mum and dad because you know,

the candle burns on both ends. Jesus Christ is coming sooner, and we

are also living a life, so you know whichever one is first. But

I say, but I tell him that most likely your mother and father will

go home to be with the Lord before he returns. I want you to

know one thing, and I'm saying this with my mouth to you so that

you will remember he will most likely come in your lifetime or your children's lifetime.

Wow, what a thing to say. So I tell him get your

act together. Live, yes, And and the Mabel pointed this out to

me this morning. We should always live our lives every day like Jesus Christ

is coming tomorrow or even today. We have to be prepared. But I

am saying that the reason we're not prepared is because we don't believe he's coming

soon. Because if you believe, and I believe that he's coming soon,

we would be prepared all the time. So the question we ask ourselves,

are we prepared all the time? You know? And then as I begin

to think more about this, and I think about all the things that the

Lord has prophesied, I do believe that Christians will get raptured. Do you

all know what that means, do you all know what the rapture is?

Many of us don't even realize what the rapture is. The Bible says that

we will be caught up into heaven the blink of an eye one minute,

one second way here, in the next second, way with the Lord.

And then I read scripture and I realized one thing about the Lord. Do

you realize that every time a great catastrophe was about to take place, he

saved the believers? First, do you know that you think about it?

When he was about to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, did he not make sure

Lot and his children were safe first, with the exception of the wife,

because the wife couldn't leave it all behind, all right, So he saved

Lot and his children. And then when you think about it a little bit

further, before he destroyed Jericho, was not I think Rama Rehab was not.

Rehab saved because she believed. She believed that God was going to do

something, and the Lord saved her. So it's not a fast stretch of

the imagination to believe that the horrors that are about to take place on this

earth today will only happen when the Lord has removed his believers. I am

not an expert in this, and neither do I speak an expert, because

one I'm about to tell you is what is happening in the world today and

try and bring some of it back to Scripture. And besides that, also

to share with you what are some of the ways that we can be prepared

for it. This morning, as I was praying, the Lord kept putting

in my head two hundred million, the two hundred million, the two hundred

million, the two hundred million, okay, the two hundred million. Okay.

This is what Scripture says about two hundred million. And this is very

important for us because it tells you, gives us an indication about the truth

of God's word. In Revelations chapter nine, you know that Revelation talks about

God's judgment and it is coming upon a wicked world. It's coming upon a

world that has rejected him, so therefore it cannot be against his Christians,

against his believers. It talks about seven seals, and the seven seals refers

reveals some great terrors that are coming upon the earth. And after that comes

the seven trumpets, and with each trumpet sounding, it's horrible. And after

the seven trumpets, comes the pouring of the seven vials or bowls, if

it were. And the Bible says that God is the only one. Godfather

is the only one that knows the exact date, time, the date and

the time, meaning that this is truly and thoroughly in the world of God,

in the Word of God, and in the will of God, where

he is going to pour out his wrath on a world that frankly deserves it.

So I know it's gone very quiet here. I'm so sorry. Al

remember says, go easier them because the damon I was sharing it, it

sounded like I was angry. I wasn't angrier so passionate with what God put

in my heart. It sounded that way. But there's sometimes never any easy

way to say some of these things. All right, So let's let's read

what the what the scripture says. I'll read this quickly because this is not

really going to be the focus of my message. But anyway, Revelations chapter

nine. Then the fifth angels sounded, and I saw a star fallen from

heaven to the earth to him. Was given a key to the bottomless pit,

and he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose. Other pit like

a smoke of a great furnace of the sun. The air was darkened because

of the smoke of the pit. All right, Lee, reading a little

bit further, shape ham breathplates the bottomless spit. Okay, six trumpets sounded.

Ah, release the four angels who abounded the great river Euphrates. So

the four angels who had been prepared for the hours reading from verse fifteen,

and the day in the month and a year, there is a specific day,

month and year when this will take place, and they will be released

to kill one third of men kind that will be roughly three billion people Verse

sixteen. Now the army, the number of the army of the horseman was

two hundred million. I heard the number of them. Other scripture refers this,

or as you read on it refers to them as having breastplates of fiery

red and blue and yellow, and their heads like lions. I believe,

and many scholars believe, that this refers to the Chinese army. President ge

I think that's his name, right, is that his name? Okay?

You know what recently he has been boasting. At a moment's notice, I

can raise an army of two hundred millions when this scripture was written. It

was written two thousand years ago. If you use mathematics, and some of

you are very good in mathematics, I am not one of them. But

if you use mathematics and you work backwards based on current population rates at the

time this scripture was written, do you know how many people were on Asa

about or less than two hundred millions? So when this was written in scripture

by John stating that at that time there will be an army of two hundred

million men, he had no concept of how this was possible, that it

could even take place. But it has, and the Bible says that these

two hundred million people can march from where they are in the east all the

way to go and attack Israel. Then you say, man, this is

impossible. How can an army march all that distance? Have you heard of

the Karakoram Highway which was competed in the seventies, and why we in the

seventies used to hear about the second coming of Christ the Lord. It is

a highway all the way from China that grows directly across and can reach the

Middle East. And scripture also talks about the Euphrates river driving drying up.

Do you know that this was what people, You know, scholars always said,

it's impossible because the river is so big and so deep and so this

and so that it will never happen. In the last few years, Please

research how many times the Euphrates river has completely dried up. Do you know

that when the river drives up, it is a road directly into Israel?

And then scripture says, when these armies of the world come against Israel,

God will come to their defense. One more thing that I learned. Revelation

thirteen talks about the one world leader. It talks about the one world government.

It talks about the one world financial system. It talks about the one

world army. There's one who I can't remember. One world church, one

world church. Are you aware that in Abu Dhabi today there exists a center

which has joined the three Abrahamic religions on the same ground, and it is

authorized and endorsed by all those three major religions, the Catholic Church, the

Judaic Temple and the Mosque. Three of this rest on the same place.

Are you aware if you were to look at the United Nations chatter that they

hope to have the one world government by the year twenty thirty. Go and

look it up. I'm not saying all these things to scare you, but

I am telling you Jesus Christ is coming again, and he's coming again real

soon. Now we'll get into what the Lord was talking to me about.

You know things that are happening in the world today. Your children are a

target. Your children are a target. Do you are you aware what's going

on in the world today? The world has gone completely insane. They've gone

crazy. The world has gone totally off. Men are girls and girls are

men, and there's so many in betweens, LGBTQI plus one two, I

don't know a hundreds you laugh, But do you know that sex is now

no longer male or female? It's male, it's female, it's in between.

It's the world can't even answer a question what is a woman? How

many of you saw that that that that video? What is a woman?

Have you seen the Oversight Congress hearings in the US over what is happening among

children? Are you aware that in the States today? If you go and

you ask a medical doctor, can a man have a child? Can a

man give birth? And you will be so surprised to hear the answer,

they will say yes. And then when you when you say, but,

but how can they be so? Don't you understand there's a difference between sex

and gender. Really, I think there's a difference between sanity and insanity.

Which side of the spectrum are you on? The no spectrum? It's either

left or right. But you see, this is happening in the world today,

and many of us we are so happy to send our children to the

States, to Australia, to England because of the great education. Really,

you send them as a boy, they come back as a girl, and

you will be scratching your head to try and figure out how this is true,

and then you will hear all the nonsense come up. I've always felt

I was in the wrong body. They even say it that doctors assign birth

at children. At birth, when you're born from the navel down. The

only way the doctor can tell whether your boy or girl is from the navel

down us. Other than that, there is no other way to tell.

But they refuse to acknowledge that God made them male and female. Why is

this important to us? You know in two Timidy three one to seven it

says, but not this is that in the last day is perilous. Times

will come for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money. Remember

the lovers of money, your kid, Just remember that lovers of money,

boasters, proud, blessed, femous, disobedient to parents. The only time

you disagree with your parents if they say, don't believe in Jesus Christ,

and you want to believe in Jesus Christ, that's obeying God, and he

supersedes your parents. But if your parents to tell you to do good and

you don't do good, you're being disobedient to parents. You're on the wrong

side of the argument. I'm thankful and holy, I'm loving and forgiving,

slanderous without self control, brutally brutal, despises of good and verse for traitors,

head strong, hearty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.

Okay, lovers of money. Remember I said that in the States today,

there is this new movement talking about gender dysphoria. Have you heard of that?

That's crap? Okay, So if you hear this word, acknowledge it

for what it is. It's crap. Basically, it's a lie propagated by

the medical fraternity to ensure that they've got money coming into them. Because are

you aware that children are being mutilated in the early teens in the US.

For example, if you're a boy and you say or a girl and the

parents disagree with you, and your son reports you to the authorities, you

know what the authorities do. They'll come, they'll take you away. They'll

put you in the hands of psychologists or really psychoists, because they are insane,

all right. And what these people will do is indoctrinate you that you're

a woman and they are authorized to give you drugs puberty blockers, they call

it, drugs that medically castrate you. You know, the same drugs that

they give to rapists, they're given to the children. What is happening in

the world today? Are we away aware of it? Are we conscious that

this is actually taking place? And by the age of fifteen sixteen, they

can go and cut those body parts off. For the girls, they can

go and have mastectomies. This is happening. If you go to Australia and

you go to your university in the form male, female, or anything else

you want to be referred to, as you go to Canada, if you're

a guy who says you're a she, and I refer to you as he.

I can be put in jail. Scripture goes on to see in two

Timitive three, verse five, having a form of godliness by denying its power,

and from such people turn away. For this sort are those who creep

into households. Scripture says that they are lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of

God. And this is the key where everything goes crazy. You want to

know why people are so off that they can't even tell The doctor is sitting

in Congress and the senators are asking her describe a female, and they can't.

They can't tell you what what is a woman? A woman is one

who declares herself as a woman. I am God. So from now on

you will bow to me and you will worship me. Are you gonna do

that? You won't? Isn't it because you will think I'm an case?

Just because I say I am God? Does that make me God? So

just because a man with man bits say he's a woman, he should be

allowed into a woman's changing room and change along with a woman. Does that

make sense to you? How many of you heard about this male mma artist

mma? You know fight, you know martial arts artists who went into the

cage with the woman martial artists and beat her to a pout. How many

of you heard that story. A man, whether any woman wants to agree

with it or not, has a different muscular and bone structure. Don't take

my word for it. That's the science. But these people refuse to acknowledge

the science because they say the science is based on wrong understanding of the situation.

Really, what about the guy who's six foot three who was always coming

out lasting his races with the guys, say he's a woman, and goes

into swimming and breaks all the records, and the whole world is clapping their

hands, Woa, so good, so great, so good, so great.

Then when he went to the changing room, the other women swimmers were

forced to change with him, and he was totally mailing everything that he had.

You want your children to go through data. This is happening in the

world to Dana. They can't tell the difference. And that's because the Bible

says that they have given up the love of God to become another. Scripture

says, lovers of self, you see, when you and I get our

mind of who God is, it's open season. And because mankind if if

you do not know the greatest threat today is that man loves himself. It's

all about I. It's all about me. It's all about what I think.

And you know what's what's what God says about that when you are a

lover of self, God gives you up to your own devices and you go

totally crazy. In Matthew twenty four versus Study seven tony. But as the

days of Noah were, so also will be the coming of the sun of

men. For as in those days before the floods, they were eating and

drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the date that Noah entered the art

and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so

it will be with the coming of men. You know what the scripture was

saying is these things will become so natural that nobody will bat an eyelid.

This movement started in the fifties where the women started talking about the feminist movement.

I'm women, hear me raw? You know what? The women didn't

of that time didn't realize this. No one is ever saying you're not capable.

I mean, Ruth, what did Ruth do? She was a woman

what did rama do? She was a woman? What did esther do?

She was a woman. Let me tell you, Mary who gave birth to

Jesus didn't go through an easy time. She gave up her reputation to bear

the Lord Jesus Christ, and that stigma stood with her all of her life.

Personal substance. Do you think she was interested in a feminist movement?

But there was the start. And after the feminist movement came the sixties and

the seventies, which was free drugs and free love, promiscuous society. Marriages

started to die in the eighties, and we think it's okay to marry and

give up marriage. Let me tell you, when we do what we want,

that's being a lover of self. And when we are love of self,

God will give us up to whatever it is we want to do because

He's let go. So don't for a minute think you have a choice whether

to marry and divorce. There is no choice. You don't do it.

If I have to think about what God has to say and what you have

to say, you don't stand a chance. And after the eighties came on

the nineties hip hop. It was a really angry time. You notice in

the in the year, in the nineties and the early two thousands, music

is always having bad langue. He started the time of the bad language and

all of them angry. Do you know that in the early two thousand being

gay was literally stell in the closet. Nobody talked about it. It was

shameful to talk about it. We were just watching the show House, you

know House. We started season one that was two thousand and four, and

in it we had one guy who had AIDS. He had AIDS because he

was a gay. Do you know that he tried everything in his power and

his brother tried everything in his power to keep it quiet because it was very

shameful. Fast forward to today, do you think anybody cares? They got

the great the gay gray the gay pride parades where they proudfully display themselves.

And somebody asked this question, even one gay man asked this question. He

says, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm gay. But what's

it with this great gay pride? Wherever they have this gay pride, all

of them have to go like they practically naked. This is exactly what Scripture

says, given them over. God has given them over to their stupidity.

Happening in the world today. This thing that I'm telling you about, how

the courts are fighting to allow your children to change their sex as young as

eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, happening in the world today.

You know how all this movement is. You know how long this is.

This has just happened in the last five years, that's how new this

is. Do you realize that in the States today, if the parent goes

to the school board and makes a fust say, I do not like what

you're teaching in school because you're teaching my children how it's okay to be gay,

they are branded as domestic terrorists. The FBI comes into their homes at

two am and wracks up the place. This happened in the world today today

as well. Do you know that in kindergartens in the States today, they

have books that teach children about being gay and the types of intimate relationships you

can get into while being gay at kindergarten level, and to take those books

and remove it is considered hate, It's considered bigotry. Are you aware that

the Bible has been declared as hate speech and therefore is banned from schools under

that category? Wake up? People. You know in Luke seventeen twenty eight

to thirty, it says it's likewise as it was also in the days of

Lot. They ate, they drank, they bought, they soul, they

planted, and they built. But on the day when Lot went out from

Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them. Or even

so it will be the son of Man comes. You know, the Bible

says, professing themselves, they be professing themselves to be wise. They are

fools. Inscription says that because they gave up the love of God, because

they give up loving God, all these things happened. So how now do

we protect our children? How now do we protect ourselves? Do you think

it's far away? I got friends that just came back from Thailand. Everything

there's rainbow. Now you know what the rainbow is, simboling, right,

that's what is being promulgated. You think it's far away from you? What

do you think Singapore is? Do you think Malaysia will be Exampia for now?

For now it'll be example. But when all the world gets together and

they say do it my way or we'll crush you. We'll keep Italy because

that's the way the world is moving. Guys, Jesus is coming soon.

He's coming real soon. For us to be prepared, we have to teach

our children the one basic thing that is going to carry them forward is the

love of God. Because when you teach them to love God, when you

teach them to love God, it's not about God. Yeah, you can

teach them about God. You can teach them of God. But the thing

you cannot afford not to do, you must teach them to love God.

Because my scripture says that when they love God, God will not give them

over into stupid desires, and when something like that comes their way, he

will come in and protect them. My kids are grown up. I've told

them on your own. I've told them that if we go and you don't

make it to heaven, I'm not trying to get them, but I'm telling

them the truth. If we go and you don't guard yourself and you don't

make it to heaven, don't for a minute think I will share that here.

I will not even remember who you are. That's the reality. Do

I want them to be there? Absolutely will. I feel terribly sad if

they are not there. If I'm on earth, yes, I will.

When I'm in the Lord, I can't be bothered. I'm just telling it

like it is. So now it's the time. Now, it's the time.

We've got to do our work. Our work is cut out for us.

In case you don't know, you remember us talking about lovers of money.

Do you know why they they are pushing this thing in the States because

it's good medical income. The psychiatrists are working in tandem with the surgeons to

do the surgeries and push off drugs. Once they are on these drugs,

they are on these drugs for life. It's about the money and these kids.

I mean, as a kid, one day, I want to be

a doctor. Next day I want to be a drink seaper. Next day

I want to be a you know, rocket side. Do you think you

pay attention to that. No, you see, when the time comes,

you'll kind of figure it out. But as a kid, oh, I

want to be a doctor straight away. You buy medical big books and start

teaching him. The very next day, he says, I want to be

a fireman. And what you do is you burn him so that he knows

how figh is painful. I mean, you don't do that. You give

them the knowledge to make that decision when the time comes. I don't want

this, you know, you guys, you know, heads all down and

and you know you're very quiet. But I'm giving you a handle. I'm

giving you something to hold on to. You teach them to love Jesus and

God has a way of protecting you from this nonsense. I could literally go

on and on and on about all these things that I've been researching and hearing.

Is so real. In five years, in five years, they have

legalized gay marriages. Are you aware that the Church of England has split recently?

You know why because the African continent and the Asian continent do not agree

with them saying it's okay for the church to marry gaze. Did you know

this happened about two months ago. It's happening in the world today. It's

coming closer and closer and closer. Your faith is being attacked. If you

were to say I'm sorry, I don't believe what you say, you are

being accused of being a hater, accused of hate speech. You know,

I've got family members overseas who are you know, into not heterosexual relationships?

You know what the Bible teaches about them. It teaches that you love them,

you love them, You love the people because Jesus love them, so

that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life. It did

not talk about good people. It did not talk about bad people. It

did not talk about LGBTQ. It talked about everybody. You love the people.

You don't have to love what they do, no matter how much they

try and make you love them, love it. They are the ones who

trying to make you acknowledge that it's okay. You don't have to. The

most you can do is acknowledge it's your choice. Jesus loves you in spite

of your choice. We got to get our understanding correctly. You know,

we most likely cannot change them, but I know someone who can. His

name is Jesus. And all they got to do is the closer they get

to the Lord and the more that they love him, he will set there

thinking straight. That's all we need to do. It is totally you know,

normally I try to leave something very very positive, and you know,

but y'all have a smile on your face and ah, yeah, of course,

you know if you look at this scripture, this was actually from Peter,

okay, sorry talking about Peter, not from Peter's talking about Peter.

And Peter felt that he had denied the Lord three times. It's feeling really

saddened. And then what happens is, you know I told you this the

last time, that Jesus restores him by asking him a very important question.

Do you love me? And Peter says, yes, Lord, you know

I love you. Then he says, feed my lambs the little ones.

Then Jesus asks him a second time, Peter, do you love me?

And Peter says, yes, Lord, you know I love you. And

then Jesus tells him tend my sheep. Sheep are not lambs. Lambs her

babies. So you know, at the very least we can start telling the

little children about Jesus. And as we've grown a little bit deeper in our

love with the Lord, we are able to help all the ones. And

then Jesus asks him a third time, Peter, you love me, and

Peter grieved said, Lord, you know all things. You know that I

love you. And now Jesus tells him feed my sheep. The greater you

grow in the love of God, the more you will be able to do

for his Kingdom. So none of you are without means. You all have

the means. What is the means? Love the Lord. We hope you've

been blessed by this message. For more information on our church, please visit
