00:00:00,900 --> 00:00:02,980
Welcome to From the Pulpit in Classic Sermons.

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:05,040
Each week we bring you a different message

3
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:07,100
from some of history's greatest speakers in the

4
00:00:07,100 --> 00:00:09,760
Christian faith in powerful sermons for modern preachers

5
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:10,020
too.

6
00:00:10,660 --> 00:00:13,000
This week we have Lester Sumrall with his

7
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,220
message Demonology and Deliverance Part One and then

8
00:00:16,220 --> 00:00:18,800
also a Prophecy and Rapture in Time Study.

9
00:00:21,570 --> 00:00:24,830
Welcome students to one of the finest series

10
00:00:24,830 --> 00:00:28,990
of lessons that we'll ever be giving and

11
00:00:28,990 --> 00:00:31,409
possibly one of the most exciting that we

12
00:00:31,409 --> 00:00:32,210
shall ever have.

13
00:00:32,830 --> 00:00:37,450
We consider that these very particular lessons on

14
00:00:37,450 --> 00:00:42,410
demons and deliverance, principalities and powers to be

15
00:00:42,410 --> 00:00:46,590
some of the most important lessons that we

16
00:00:46,590 --> 00:00:47,230
have ever given.

17
00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:50,190
And because they are so important, you will

18
00:00:50,190 --> 00:00:53,890
be able to receive these in the audio

19
00:00:53,890 --> 00:00:59,590
form and this way in a beautiful book

20
00:00:59,590 --> 00:01:01,030
that you just put right in your library,

21
00:01:01,530 --> 00:01:03,450
and you will be able to also receive

22
00:01:03,450 --> 00:01:05,470
these in the video, a one-half inch

23
00:01:05,470 --> 00:01:08,250
form to look through your own television set

24
00:01:08,250 --> 00:01:11,990
with, and then possibly the best of all,

25
00:01:12,110 --> 00:01:15,770
a teaching syllabus such as I hold here,

26
00:01:16,090 --> 00:01:17,690
exactly the same as I hold here.

27
00:01:17,970 --> 00:01:19,950
And so we are going into this in

28
00:01:19,950 --> 00:01:23,150
the most thorough way possible, and in all

29
00:01:23,150 --> 00:01:26,950
of the various operations of learning, whether it

30
00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:29,150
is in the reading word or the hearing

31
00:01:29,150 --> 00:01:30,530
word or the seeing word.

32
00:01:31,050 --> 00:01:33,830
And so we are going at this very

33
00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:34,350
thoroughly.

34
00:01:35,230 --> 00:01:37,070
In the world that we live in right

35
00:01:37,070 --> 00:01:40,970
now, there is no topic so important.

36
00:01:41,390 --> 00:01:45,910
With the occult growing in unprecedented ways in

37
00:01:45,910 --> 00:01:49,950
this country, it is most important that we,

38
00:01:50,130 --> 00:01:54,010
as spiritual guides, spiritual leaders, spiritual spokesmen for

39
00:01:54,010 --> 00:01:57,730
the Most High God, that we inform our

40
00:01:57,730 --> 00:01:58,130
people.

41
00:01:58,490 --> 00:02:00,730
We cannot make anybody do anything.

42
00:02:01,050 --> 00:02:02,470
We can only inform.

43
00:02:03,070 --> 00:02:05,490
We are informers for God.

44
00:02:05,850 --> 00:02:06,770
We are ambassadors.

45
00:02:07,070 --> 00:02:09,870
An ambassador comes to another nation, and he

46
00:02:09,870 --> 00:02:13,930
presents what his nation believes and expects them

47
00:02:13,930 --> 00:02:14,270
to do.

48
00:02:14,550 --> 00:02:16,870
And his responsibility terminates.

49
00:02:17,210 --> 00:02:19,650
He cannot make that nation do what he

50
00:02:19,650 --> 00:02:20,510
wants them to do.

51
00:02:20,570 --> 00:02:22,330
He can only say, this is what my

52
00:02:22,330 --> 00:02:23,750
nation would like for you to know.

53
00:02:23,970 --> 00:02:26,490
We represent the kingdom of God and the

54
00:02:26,490 --> 00:02:28,490
kingdom of heaven, and we can only say,

55
00:02:28,810 --> 00:02:30,990
this is what God wants us to know

56
00:02:30,990 --> 00:02:32,730
and what He wants us to be, what

57
00:02:32,730 --> 00:02:33,770
He wants us to do.

58
00:02:34,010 --> 00:02:36,850
And it's very important that we teach these

59
00:02:36,850 --> 00:02:39,090
things, not that we just know them, but

60
00:02:39,090 --> 00:02:40,150
that we teach them.

61
00:02:40,430 --> 00:02:42,710
The Word of God very plainly says, that

62
00:02:42,710 --> 00:02:45,930
which ye have received freely, give freely.

63
00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:48,130
We are not to be storage tanks.

64
00:02:48,590 --> 00:02:50,650
I am not supposed to know a tremendous

65
00:02:50,650 --> 00:02:55,610
amount about this tremendous subject from all over

66
00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:57,290
the world and keep it in my own

67
00:02:57,290 --> 00:02:57,730
bosom.

68
00:02:58,530 --> 00:03:00,650
You see, I am supposed to share it,

69
00:03:01,110 --> 00:03:04,410
and that you shall understand by it.

70
00:03:05,230 --> 00:03:06,550
That's what the Bible is.

71
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:08,370
The Bible is a story of what God

72
00:03:08,370 --> 00:03:10,690
has done, what God is doing, and what

73
00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:11,750
God is going to do.

74
00:03:12,130 --> 00:03:14,210
And then you make the decision.

75
00:03:14,630 --> 00:03:16,110
If you wish to believe what He has

76
00:03:16,110 --> 00:03:17,970
done, if you wish to accept what He

77
00:03:17,970 --> 00:03:20,250
is doing, if you wish to understand what

78
00:03:20,250 --> 00:03:22,010
is going to come to pass, then the

79
00:03:22,010 --> 00:03:25,650
Bible is the book of divine revelation.

80
00:03:26,710 --> 00:03:29,270
These pertinent lessons, and I must say it

81
00:03:29,270 --> 00:03:32,790
very strong, possibly the most pertinent that I

82
00:03:32,790 --> 00:03:33,970
have ever developed.

83
00:03:34,410 --> 00:03:37,490
And that these studies have to do with

84
00:03:37,490 --> 00:03:43,090
the unnatural power and dominion over intelligent beings.

85
00:03:43,330 --> 00:03:47,690
That is the forces of the netherworld seeking

86
00:03:47,690 --> 00:03:53,070
to dominate spiritual life, unspiritual life in the

87
00:03:53,070 --> 00:03:53,710
human world.

88
00:03:53,710 --> 00:03:56,870
And so, we must realize that.

89
00:03:57,150 --> 00:03:59,210
Now, we are not dealing with one part

90
00:03:59,210 --> 00:03:59,790
of the world.

91
00:04:00,710 --> 00:04:02,770
In my living in over one hundred nations

92
00:04:02,770 --> 00:04:05,830
of the world, I came to understand that

93
00:04:05,830 --> 00:04:08,570
the devil wants to hurt people in India,

94
00:04:08,990 --> 00:04:12,390
and China, and Indonesia, and Malaysia, and in

95
00:04:12,390 --> 00:04:14,330
Australia, just as much as he does those

96
00:04:14,330 --> 00:04:18,329
in India, or in Pakistan, or in the

97
00:04:18,329 --> 00:04:20,209
Near East, or in Europe, or America.

98
00:04:20,670 --> 00:04:23,730
That the scope of these studies is universal.

99
00:04:24,510 --> 00:04:26,290
And you will see that it's universal.

100
00:04:26,590 --> 00:04:29,170
It not only has to do with this

101
00:04:29,170 --> 00:04:31,190
planet earth, it has to do with heaven,

102
00:04:31,470 --> 00:04:34,970
it has to do with eternity in hell,

103
00:04:35,090 --> 00:04:35,390
you see.

104
00:04:35,730 --> 00:04:37,450
And so, we are not dealing with a

105
00:04:37,450 --> 00:04:38,270
small subject.

106
00:04:38,690 --> 00:04:40,490
We are dealing with a subject as big

107
00:04:40,490 --> 00:04:41,070
as the universe.

108
00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:43,090
When you go out and look up at

109
00:04:43,090 --> 00:04:45,630
the stars at night, that's how big this

110
00:04:45,630 --> 00:04:46,190
subject is.

111
00:04:46,590 --> 00:04:48,930
And no man has ever understood it completely.

112
00:04:49,370 --> 00:04:51,250
No man has a total of all the

113
00:04:51,250 --> 00:04:53,650
answers, but bless God, we together can have

114
00:04:53,650 --> 00:04:53,790
them.

115
00:04:54,130 --> 00:04:57,610
And so, let's go after them, unitedly, sincerely,

116
00:04:58,090 --> 00:05:00,810
in depth, and God will certainly help us

117
00:05:00,810 --> 00:05:01,450
to know that.

118
00:05:01,770 --> 00:05:04,230
We have discovered that the devil has no

119
00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:08,870
relationship or respect for a race, for a

120
00:05:08,870 --> 00:05:12,410
nation, for a person, for a society, or

121
00:05:12,410 --> 00:05:15,310
for a culture, that he wishes to hurt

122
00:05:15,310 --> 00:05:18,330
every human person on the face of this

123
00:05:18,330 --> 00:05:20,790
earth, whether he be a primitive person in

124
00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:22,770
the jungles of New Guinea, or whether he

125
00:05:22,770 --> 00:05:24,810
be a person's walk in the United Nations

126
00:05:24,810 --> 00:05:26,850
halls in New York City.

127
00:05:27,890 --> 00:05:29,370
The devil is a devil.

128
00:05:30,370 --> 00:05:31,990
He's not one thing in one part of

129
00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:33,330
the world or something else in another part

130
00:05:33,330 --> 00:05:33,770
of the world.

131
00:05:34,430 --> 00:05:36,090
That's exactly what he is.

132
00:05:36,470 --> 00:05:39,010
He may have a different approach between a

133
00:05:39,010 --> 00:05:42,070
person that lives in Afghanistan than that one

134
00:05:42,070 --> 00:05:44,830
that lives in Paris, France, but the end

135
00:05:44,830 --> 00:05:47,330
result is the same, to destroy that person's

136
00:05:47,330 --> 00:05:50,650
relationship with God, to destroy his faith, and

137
00:05:50,650 --> 00:05:53,570
to help him not to know the truth

138
00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:55,230
that sets him free.

139
00:05:55,610 --> 00:05:59,990
And these studies, they're not only just imperative,

140
00:06:00,370 --> 00:06:02,590
but they are imperative in what I call

141
00:06:02,590 --> 00:06:03,810
a point in time.

142
00:06:04,610 --> 00:06:08,330
I am very conscious that thirty years ago,

143
00:06:08,710 --> 00:06:10,090
I was before my time.

144
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:14,030
I exposed these truths, and I made a

145
00:06:14,030 --> 00:06:15,930
film about the girl in the Philippines that

146
00:06:15,930 --> 00:06:18,430
was delivered from the power of the devil

147
00:06:18,430 --> 00:06:21,750
by Jesus, and in America, there were actually

148
00:06:21,750 --> 00:06:25,270
full gospel Christians that wouldn't even go and

149
00:06:25,270 --> 00:06:27,510
see the film that documented the story.

150
00:06:28,150 --> 00:06:31,430
I said, now that's interesting that you're even

151
00:06:31,430 --> 00:06:33,890
afraid of the victory, much less the battle.

152
00:06:34,110 --> 00:06:35,510
You wouldn't have shown up for the battle

153
00:06:35,510 --> 00:06:38,130
for sure, but you're even afraid of the

154
00:06:38,130 --> 00:06:38,470
victory.

155
00:06:38,750 --> 00:06:41,130
This is the victory film showing what God

156
00:06:41,130 --> 00:06:43,070
did, and you're even afraid of victory.

157
00:06:43,670 --> 00:06:44,990
Well, bless God, if you were afraid of

158
00:06:44,990 --> 00:06:46,050
victory, what would you do in a day

159
00:06:46,050 --> 00:06:46,510
of war?

160
00:06:47,590 --> 00:06:50,290
In point of time, I was before my

161
00:06:50,290 --> 00:06:54,330
time in relating this, and it made me

162
00:06:54,330 --> 00:06:55,850
to be known in this country and around

163
00:06:55,850 --> 00:06:58,730
the world as a pioneer in understanding the

164
00:06:58,730 --> 00:07:03,910
phenomena of demons and devils and netherworld personalities,

165
00:07:04,310 --> 00:07:07,870
but now the time has come when everybody

166
00:07:07,870 --> 00:07:08,710
must know the truth.

167
00:07:09,150 --> 00:07:11,490
Millions are desirous of knowing the truth, and

168
00:07:11,490 --> 00:07:12,690
this is the way to give it to

169
00:07:12,690 --> 00:07:12,890
them.

170
00:07:13,370 --> 00:07:15,890
As we create this class here, and this

171
00:07:15,890 --> 00:07:17,730
class here goes out to millions of people

172
00:07:17,730 --> 00:07:21,310
other than ourselves, then we are disseminating divine

173
00:07:21,310 --> 00:07:23,750
truth that must be given today.

174
00:07:23,950 --> 00:07:24,810
This is our day.

175
00:07:25,130 --> 00:07:26,010
This is the day.

176
00:07:26,210 --> 00:07:27,210
This is a good day.

177
00:07:27,470 --> 00:07:28,450
This is God's day.

178
00:07:28,730 --> 00:07:29,910
This is the spiritual day.

179
00:07:30,170 --> 00:07:32,450
This is the prophetic day, so let it

180
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:33,390
ring deep in your heart.

181
00:07:33,710 --> 00:07:35,570
Let it ring deep in your souls, and

182
00:07:35,570 --> 00:07:37,170
let this be a day that you will

183
00:07:37,170 --> 00:07:40,390
never forget, but more than that, it is

184
00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:43,150
time for us to understand that we are

185
00:07:43,150 --> 00:07:46,070
all deliverers, that God created us.

186
00:07:46,510 --> 00:07:48,670
You have no right to sit in a

187
00:07:48,670 --> 00:07:51,610
comfortable situation and say, well, I'm free of

188
00:07:51,610 --> 00:07:53,410
the devil's power, and that's all right.

189
00:07:53,590 --> 00:07:56,190
How about your neighbors with a boy that's

190
00:07:56,190 --> 00:07:58,450
been on drugs and has no more mind

191
00:07:58,450 --> 00:07:59,110
to function?

192
00:07:59,310 --> 00:08:01,270
How about the girl that has broken her

193
00:08:01,270 --> 00:08:04,150
life in sin, and the devil has possessed

194
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:09,230
her with a spirit of the craving for

195
00:08:09,230 --> 00:08:11,150
sex that she has no control of herself?

196
00:08:11,410 --> 00:08:12,810
These people need love.

197
00:08:13,130 --> 00:08:15,070
They need an understanding, and they need to

198
00:08:15,070 --> 00:08:16,650
know there's a big bad devil out there

199
00:08:16,650 --> 00:08:19,250
that's to blame for this problem, and that

200
00:08:19,250 --> 00:08:20,890
Jesus can set them free.

201
00:08:21,230 --> 00:08:23,230
There is nothing the devil's ever done that

202
00:08:23,230 --> 00:08:26,150
Jesus cannot undo, and there is no power

203
00:08:26,150 --> 00:08:28,570
that he has demonstrated that Christ cannot subdue.

204
00:08:28,970 --> 00:08:30,350
He is the King of kings.

205
00:08:30,630 --> 00:08:31,890
He is the Lord of lords.

206
00:08:32,270 --> 00:08:33,330
He is the Mighty One.

207
00:08:33,650 --> 00:08:34,549
He is the Deliverer.

208
00:08:34,630 --> 00:08:35,070
Know it.

209
00:08:35,230 --> 00:08:35,630
Believe it.

210
00:08:35,730 --> 00:08:36,210
Accept it.

211
00:08:36,950 --> 00:08:39,450
You'll sure be glad that you did.

212
00:08:40,309 --> 00:08:44,870
Our world today, not just America, but Europe

213
00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:46,570
is in front of us, and England is

214
00:08:46,570 --> 00:08:47,330
in front of us.

215
00:08:47,810 --> 00:08:51,430
Our world today is rapidly and drastically changing

216
00:08:51,430 --> 00:08:57,670
in its relationship with that which is a

217
00:08:57,670 --> 00:09:01,570
power beyond human power, whether it's ESP, or

218
00:09:01,570 --> 00:09:06,350
whether it's EP, or whatever, or ET, or

219
00:09:06,350 --> 00:09:07,350
whatever it might be.

220
00:09:07,770 --> 00:09:12,290
Our world today is being attacked by occult

221
00:09:12,290 --> 00:09:12,810
forces.

222
00:09:13,530 --> 00:09:17,450
Magic is one of the greatest resurgence in

223
00:09:17,450 --> 00:09:18,750
the total of human history.

224
00:09:18,830 --> 00:09:20,250
It's enjoying it right now.

225
00:09:21,550 --> 00:09:23,490
Never has there been a time when the

226
00:09:24,290 --> 00:09:27,050
world has sold as many books, has as

227
00:09:27,050 --> 00:09:29,410
many meetings, and has been accepted by so

228
00:09:29,410 --> 00:09:29,950
many people.

229
00:09:30,210 --> 00:09:33,250
It's riding high in the world today.

230
00:09:33,670 --> 00:09:35,910
Now, that would be distressing except for one

231
00:09:35,910 --> 00:09:36,270
thing.

232
00:09:36,810 --> 00:09:39,630
The Lord Jesus Christ predicted that in the

233
00:09:39,630 --> 00:09:40,230
last days.

234
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:42,490
The Word of God teaches us very clearly.

235
00:09:43,750 --> 00:09:47,070
The Apostle Paul in 1 Timothy 4 and

236
00:09:47,070 --> 00:09:50,270
1 says, "...the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in

237
00:09:50,270 --> 00:09:52,610
the latter times some shall depart from the

238
00:09:52,610 --> 00:09:55,550
faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines

239
00:09:55,550 --> 00:09:55,950
of devils."

240
00:09:55,950 --> 00:09:57,550
We will be studying that in this series

241
00:09:57,550 --> 00:10:02,750
of beautiful lessons that we have together, that

242
00:10:02,750 --> 00:10:05,730
we shall discover and join together in our

243
00:10:05,730 --> 00:10:08,770
knowledge, and we'll grow in these things, and

244
00:10:08,770 --> 00:10:11,250
come to know the truth that helps people

245
00:10:11,250 --> 00:10:12,190
to be set free.

246
00:10:12,790 --> 00:10:15,470
Neighbors, there are literally millions of people right

247
00:10:15,470 --> 00:10:18,470
now who need to be set free from

248
00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:21,010
forces and powers beyond and outside themselves.

249
00:10:21,290 --> 00:10:23,110
They cannot set themselves free.

250
00:10:23,470 --> 00:10:24,210
They need God.

251
00:10:24,550 --> 00:10:26,310
They need the Lord Jesus to come and

252
00:10:26,310 --> 00:10:26,830
set them free.

253
00:10:27,050 --> 00:10:28,930
I'm sure you are aware of this, and

254
00:10:28,930 --> 00:10:31,590
that we're right on the ball, and we're

255
00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:32,670
right on the time schedule.

256
00:10:32,870 --> 00:10:35,050
At this point in time, it is the

257
00:10:35,050 --> 00:10:37,170
time to do this.

258
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:39,850
And so with all kinds of magic and

259
00:10:39,850 --> 00:10:42,930
occultism, with its greatest resurgence in modern history,

260
00:10:43,390 --> 00:10:46,030
Satanism springing up in every city and every

261
00:10:46,030 --> 00:10:47,670
town throughout our land.

262
00:10:47,910 --> 00:10:49,770
It's not isolated in the big cities like

263
00:10:49,770 --> 00:10:51,210
New York and Chicago and Los Angeles.

264
00:10:51,430 --> 00:10:53,470
It's also in Timbuktu, you see.

265
00:10:53,750 --> 00:10:56,910
It's in all the villages, and I can't

266
00:10:56,910 --> 00:10:58,510
go into that at this moment.

267
00:10:58,890 --> 00:11:01,110
And so these studies that we have especially

268
00:11:01,110 --> 00:11:05,090
prepared for our class and our Bible training

269
00:11:05,090 --> 00:11:08,030
center here in South Bend, Indiana, and that

270
00:11:08,030 --> 00:11:10,910
we are now sharing through you from our

271
00:11:10,910 --> 00:11:13,370
World Harvest Bible College, sharing it with the

272
00:11:13,370 --> 00:11:14,950
whole of the world.

273
00:11:15,050 --> 00:11:17,350
We're delighted to share, and we can share

274
00:11:17,350 --> 00:11:19,130
it through the audio tape and through the

275
00:11:19,130 --> 00:11:21,890
videotape and through the printed page that they

276
00:11:21,890 --> 00:11:24,370
can know exactly as you and I know

277
00:11:24,370 --> 00:11:25,870
and understand these great truths.

278
00:11:26,330 --> 00:11:30,070
We thank God that there are many church

279
00:11:30,070 --> 00:11:35,550
leaders who are tremendously concerned about occultism and

280
00:11:35,550 --> 00:11:36,170
demon power.

281
00:11:36,430 --> 00:11:39,350
It is not an isolated situation where Lester

282
00:11:39,350 --> 00:11:40,890
Sumrall is the only one concerned.

283
00:11:41,730 --> 00:11:46,210
Pope Paul said these words, whole societies have

284
00:11:46,210 --> 00:11:47,910
fallen under the domination of the devil.

285
00:11:48,430 --> 00:11:50,570
Now when a pope in Rome makes such

286
00:11:50,570 --> 00:11:52,990
a statement, it reveals that he has been

287
00:11:52,990 --> 00:11:55,410
studying the needs of the world, the problems

288
00:11:55,410 --> 00:11:58,250
of the world, the sorrows of the world,

289
00:11:58,550 --> 00:12:01,390
and that he has made a declaration that

290
00:12:01,390 --> 00:12:04,030
whole societies, what a statement.

291
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:06,090
It's further than I have made personally.

292
00:12:06,530 --> 00:12:08,950
Whole societies have fallen under the domination of

293
00:12:08,950 --> 00:12:09,230
the devil.

294
00:12:09,450 --> 00:12:12,830
He says sex and narcotics provide openings.

295
00:12:13,470 --> 00:12:14,910
You see, he has an understanding of this.

296
00:12:15,510 --> 00:12:19,890
When you lose your normal thinking, that is

297
00:12:19,890 --> 00:12:21,670
an open door for Satan to walk in

298
00:12:21,670 --> 00:12:23,630
and to do whatever he wishes and desires

299
00:12:23,630 --> 00:12:25,210
to do in your life.

300
00:12:25,470 --> 00:12:28,090
So he tells us here that sex and

301
00:12:28,090 --> 00:12:32,010
narcotics, he means perversion in sex, provide openings

302
00:12:32,010 --> 00:12:33,890
for Satan's infiltration of mankind.

303
00:12:34,490 --> 00:12:35,930
He says one of the great needs of

304
00:12:35,930 --> 00:12:38,750
our time is a defense against the evil

305
00:12:38,750 --> 00:12:40,010
which we call the devil.

306
00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:40,870
Isn't that amazing?

307
00:12:41,290 --> 00:12:43,410
Now you wouldn't expect the pope to be

308
00:12:43,410 --> 00:12:44,210
such a preacher, would you?

309
00:12:44,610 --> 00:12:47,250
You'd expect him to be an administrator of

310
00:12:47,250 --> 00:12:48,470
his church and all, but listen to what

311
00:12:48,470 --> 00:12:50,570
he's saying, that one of the great needs

312
00:12:50,570 --> 00:12:53,730
of our time is a defense against evil

313
00:12:53,730 --> 00:12:54,590
which we call the devil.

314
00:12:54,770 --> 00:12:58,090
I'm going to teach you what those defenses

315
00:12:58,090 --> 00:13:00,070
are and how you can rise up.

316
00:13:00,410 --> 00:13:02,810
There is no infernal power that you cannot

317
00:13:02,810 --> 00:13:03,230
overcome.

318
00:13:04,550 --> 00:13:06,670
We're going to teach you that you have

319
00:13:06,670 --> 00:13:08,690
as much right as any other person living

320
00:13:08,690 --> 00:13:10,850
on the face of this earth to set

321
00:13:10,850 --> 00:13:15,110
others free, that no one has superior responsibility

322
00:13:15,110 --> 00:13:17,690
to you to set these free.

323
00:13:18,110 --> 00:13:20,250
This is not for apostles and prophets and

324
00:13:20,250 --> 00:13:21,690
pastors, it's for everybody.

325
00:13:22,090 --> 00:13:23,910
You'll find that in the Great Commission, which

326
00:13:23,910 --> 00:13:26,710
we will very carefully, very carefully go through.

327
00:13:28,250 --> 00:13:30,810
And so he says the world is under

328
00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:31,830
an obscure domination.

329
00:13:32,570 --> 00:13:33,330
Isn't that amazing?

330
00:13:34,190 --> 00:13:36,610
The United Nations under an obscure domination.

331
00:13:37,230 --> 00:13:40,830
The common market countries under obscure domination.

332
00:13:41,350 --> 00:13:45,050
The third world countries under very obscure domination.

333
00:13:45,630 --> 00:13:46,330
Isn't that amazing?

334
00:13:46,890 --> 00:13:48,410
Only the church can reveal this.

335
00:13:48,670 --> 00:13:50,210
Only the church can rise up and say,

336
00:13:50,430 --> 00:13:52,290
wait a minute here, we need something.

337
00:13:52,610 --> 00:13:53,410
We need God.

338
00:13:53,490 --> 00:13:54,050
We need help.

339
00:13:54,110 --> 00:13:54,690
We need blessing.

340
00:13:55,090 --> 00:13:57,190
Only God, only God can do that.

341
00:13:57,570 --> 00:14:00,790
And so in this introductory lesson that we

342
00:14:00,790 --> 00:14:02,650
are bringing you into, we're hoping to stir

343
00:14:02,650 --> 00:14:05,430
up your pure mind, to stir up your

344
00:14:05,430 --> 00:14:08,290
soul within you, to rise up stronger than

345
00:14:08,290 --> 00:14:10,990
ever before and say, hey, here, we want

346
00:14:10,990 --> 00:14:12,290
to know this, and we want to understand

347
00:14:12,290 --> 00:14:14,410
this, and we want to be able to

348
00:14:14,410 --> 00:14:14,750
do it.

349
00:14:15,170 --> 00:14:16,990
In the last statement that the Pope made,

350
00:14:17,030 --> 00:14:19,150
he said, it is by Satan, the prince

351
00:14:19,150 --> 00:14:22,530
of this world, the number one enemy that

352
00:14:22,530 --> 00:14:23,150
we must fight.

353
00:14:23,230 --> 00:14:23,790
Isn't that amazing?

354
00:14:24,270 --> 00:14:25,570
Isn't that something?

355
00:14:26,110 --> 00:14:30,290
Now that's stopping fighting denominations, you know, our

356
00:14:30,290 --> 00:14:32,730
doctrines to know who our true enemy is.

357
00:14:33,130 --> 00:14:34,330
Now that's on the side of the Roman

358
00:14:34,330 --> 00:14:35,010
Catholic friends.

359
00:14:35,630 --> 00:14:38,150
On the Protestant side, Dr. Billy Graham said

360
00:14:38,150 --> 00:14:38,650
these words.

361
00:14:39,670 --> 00:14:42,370
He says, the devil is actively engaged in

362
00:14:42,370 --> 00:14:45,590
combating America's growing religious revival.

363
00:14:46,370 --> 00:14:48,690
Now you have to pause for a moment.

364
00:14:49,070 --> 00:14:51,230
There is a mighty revival in our land

365
00:14:51,230 --> 00:14:51,530
today.

366
00:14:51,950 --> 00:14:53,390
It is being misunderstood.

367
00:14:53,770 --> 00:14:56,270
It is being ridiculed by the mass media.

368
00:14:56,450 --> 00:14:59,250
It is being spoken against, against the older

369
00:14:59,250 --> 00:15:04,170
faiths and denominations and so forth.

370
00:15:04,770 --> 00:15:07,370
And so he's saying something, that the devil

371
00:15:07,370 --> 00:15:11,290
is actively engaged in combating America's growing religious

372
00:15:11,290 --> 00:15:11,850
revival.

373
00:15:12,390 --> 00:15:14,310
Not denominationalism, but revival.

374
00:15:14,570 --> 00:15:16,370
There is a revival in this land.

375
00:15:16,730 --> 00:15:19,270
There is a revival in this land, and

376
00:15:19,270 --> 00:15:20,310
the devil don't like it.

377
00:15:20,650 --> 00:15:22,390
He wants to fight it.

378
00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:25,190
He wants to speak disrespectfully of it, and

379
00:15:25,190 --> 00:15:27,650
he uses the mass media and anyone else

380
00:15:27,650 --> 00:15:28,970
in order to carry it on.

381
00:15:29,230 --> 00:15:31,230
Now he says the proof of the devil's

382
00:15:31,230 --> 00:15:33,910
work is the increasing interest in the occult.

383
00:15:34,530 --> 00:15:36,830
This is Dr. Billy Graham, a Baptist, a

384
00:15:36,830 --> 00:15:39,210
Baptist minister and a minister for the whole

385
00:15:39,210 --> 00:15:41,150
world and for all denominations, as you know.

386
00:15:41,970 --> 00:15:44,050
He says that the devil is doing this

387
00:15:44,050 --> 00:15:49,030
in an increased interest in astrology, tarot card

388
00:15:49,030 --> 00:15:55,330
readings, Ouija boards, palmistry, fortune-telling, and particularly

389
00:15:55,330 --> 00:15:56,290
witchcraft.

390
00:15:56,910 --> 00:15:58,110
These are the words of Dr. Graham, and

391
00:15:58,110 --> 00:16:00,190
they're in this teaching syllabus here that you

392
00:16:00,190 --> 00:16:00,790
can obtain.

393
00:16:01,910 --> 00:16:04,130
It is perfectly obvious to all of us

394
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:06,810
in spiritual work that people can be possessed

395
00:16:06,810 --> 00:16:07,450
by demons.

396
00:16:08,150 --> 00:16:09,370
Now you ought to underline that.

397
00:16:09,810 --> 00:16:11,710
That's what Dr. Billy Graham says after his,

398
00:16:11,710 --> 00:16:13,850
you know, thirty or forty years of experience

399
00:16:13,850 --> 00:16:16,370
all over the world, not just the reading

400
00:16:16,370 --> 00:16:17,610
of the Bible but by living.

401
00:16:18,150 --> 00:16:22,810
He says it is perfectly obvious to all

402
00:16:22,810 --> 00:16:26,830
of us, that's not leaving anybody out, in

403
00:16:26,830 --> 00:16:29,930
spiritual work that people, human persons, human beings,

404
00:16:30,350 --> 00:16:35,750
can be possessed by evil spirits that don't

405
00:16:35,750 --> 00:16:36,570
belong to this earth.

406
00:16:36,710 --> 00:16:38,730
They belong to something else beside this earth.

407
00:16:39,230 --> 00:16:41,230
They can be harassed by them, they can

408
00:16:41,230 --> 00:16:43,730
even be controlled by them, and more and

409
00:16:43,730 --> 00:16:46,970
more ministers, now this is the challenge, the

410
00:16:46,970 --> 00:16:50,230
challenge, brother, this is the challenge that should

411
00:16:50,230 --> 00:16:52,990
reach every person in America today.

412
00:16:53,490 --> 00:16:55,710
More and more ministers will have to learn

413
00:16:55,710 --> 00:16:57,430
to use the power of God to release

414
00:16:57,430 --> 00:17:00,130
people from these terrible possessions by the devil.

415
00:17:00,710 --> 00:17:02,270
That's the words of Dr. Billy Graham.

416
00:17:02,530 --> 00:17:03,930
Isn't that exciting?

417
00:17:04,569 --> 00:17:07,250
Isn't that exciting that he warns you and

418
00:17:07,250 --> 00:17:08,670
he warns me that more and more of

419
00:17:08,670 --> 00:17:12,089
us, but I believe he said ministers here.

420
00:17:12,369 --> 00:17:14,190
He did say, and I want to take

421
00:17:14,190 --> 00:17:16,970
it a further step and say Christians, believers,

422
00:17:17,530 --> 00:17:20,670
followers of Christ, that every lay person has

423
00:17:20,670 --> 00:17:21,329
the same right.

424
00:17:22,130 --> 00:17:23,569
You know, in the Great Commission it does

425
00:17:23,569 --> 00:17:24,910
not say you have to be a minister

426
00:17:24,910 --> 00:17:27,730
or a missionary or a pastor or anything

427
00:17:27,730 --> 00:17:28,190
like that.

428
00:17:28,450 --> 00:17:32,930
It says they that shall exercise demon spirits,

429
00:17:33,130 --> 00:17:35,050
that if you believe you can do it.

430
00:17:35,270 --> 00:17:36,690
And so this lays it into the hands

431
00:17:36,690 --> 00:17:40,070
of every believer, and of course the ministers

432
00:17:40,070 --> 00:17:41,050
do have to lead the way.

433
00:17:41,570 --> 00:17:43,230
If you don't get preachers leading the way,

434
00:17:43,370 --> 00:17:44,110
you won't get far.

435
00:17:44,490 --> 00:17:46,110
They control those congregations.

436
00:17:46,390 --> 00:17:48,050
They are the fathers of those congregations.

437
00:17:48,530 --> 00:17:51,290
They are the leaders of those congregations, and

438
00:17:51,290 --> 00:17:55,450
unless you can get it instilled deeply down

439
00:17:55,450 --> 00:17:59,790
inside of the spirit of a minister, then

440
00:17:59,790 --> 00:18:00,730
it won't get much further.

441
00:18:01,670 --> 00:18:03,510
The lay people can do their best on

442
00:18:03,510 --> 00:18:05,150
the perimeter, but if it's going to go

443
00:18:05,150 --> 00:18:08,070
right down the main street, the minister must

444
00:18:08,070 --> 00:18:09,570
be the one that speaks it from the

445
00:18:09,570 --> 00:18:11,550
pulpit, believes it with all of his heart,

446
00:18:11,930 --> 00:18:13,070
and pray over his people.

447
00:18:13,510 --> 00:18:15,250
Now it is very simple to set anyone

448
00:18:15,250 --> 00:18:16,330
free from demon power.

449
00:18:16,770 --> 00:18:18,890
You can command that thing to come out,

450
00:18:19,310 --> 00:18:20,810
and as you believe it will be so.

451
00:18:20,850 --> 00:18:21,770
It is not difficult.

452
00:18:21,770 --> 00:18:24,870
It is not a great deal that you're

453
00:18:24,870 --> 00:18:28,650
working with, some mighty object, you know, some

454
00:18:28,650 --> 00:18:29,050
mountain.

455
00:18:29,310 --> 00:18:29,990
It is not.

456
00:18:30,770 --> 00:18:33,950
It's in just the pure way of living,

457
00:18:34,010 --> 00:18:35,670
a spiritual life, that when you come up

458
00:18:35,670 --> 00:18:38,110
against evil, as the Bible says, you resist

459
00:18:38,110 --> 00:18:39,910
it, and it flees from you, you see.

460
00:18:40,310 --> 00:18:42,530
You have the power and the authority.

461
00:18:42,970 --> 00:18:44,550
He that is in us is greater than

462
00:18:44,550 --> 00:18:46,390
he that's in the world, and so we

463
00:18:46,390 --> 00:18:48,570
are not pushed back, and we're not pushed

464
00:18:48,570 --> 00:18:50,950
down, and no one can say that we

465
00:18:50,950 --> 00:18:52,530
don't have the right to do it.

466
00:18:52,730 --> 00:18:55,470
We have been commissioned, commissioned to do it

467
00:18:55,470 --> 00:18:58,150
under the general of the armies of heaven,

468
00:18:58,330 --> 00:18:59,470
whose name is Jesus.

469
00:18:59,850 --> 00:19:01,650
We have been commissioned to do it, so

470
00:19:01,650 --> 00:19:03,470
it's not a matter of we do it

471
00:19:03,470 --> 00:19:05,350
if we wish to, or we don't do

472
00:19:05,350 --> 00:19:06,390
it if we don't want to.

473
00:19:06,570 --> 00:19:08,630
It is a matter that Jesus said, do

474
00:19:08,630 --> 00:19:12,810
it, and so we are divinely inspired to

475
00:19:12,810 --> 00:19:16,410
bless our neighbors and our friends, and if

476
00:19:16,410 --> 00:19:19,190
you had compassion in your heart, if you

477
00:19:19,190 --> 00:19:22,390
could see the things that I've seen, and

478
00:19:22,390 --> 00:19:23,590
if you could have been with me in

479
00:19:23,590 --> 00:19:27,290
Brazil when I was riding a bus, and

480
00:19:27,290 --> 00:19:29,390
could have seen, we pulled up at a

481
00:19:29,390 --> 00:19:32,470
little village way back in the backlands, in

482
00:19:32,470 --> 00:19:33,610
the hinterland of Brazil.

483
00:19:34,190 --> 00:19:36,490
There they had a man tied to a

484
00:19:36,490 --> 00:19:38,750
post, tied to a post.

485
00:19:38,750 --> 00:19:41,950
He had no clothes on, and his hair

486
00:19:41,950 --> 00:19:43,770
was down at his shoulders, and was matted,

487
00:19:44,170 --> 00:19:46,230
hadn't been combed maybe in months, and he

488
00:19:46,230 --> 00:19:46,810
was crazy.

489
00:19:47,230 --> 00:19:50,130
He was screaming, yelling, jumping up and down

490
00:19:50,130 --> 00:19:53,050
like an animal, cursing the people there, and

491
00:19:53,050 --> 00:19:54,930
the people were laughing.

492
00:19:55,290 --> 00:19:59,310
The people were laughing, and he was just

493
00:19:59,310 --> 00:20:01,710
a somebody in that area that nobody could

494
00:20:01,710 --> 00:20:03,790
control, so they tied him up like an

495
00:20:03,790 --> 00:20:06,330
animal to a big round post, just like

496
00:20:06,330 --> 00:20:10,270
you tie up a horse or something, and

497
00:20:10,270 --> 00:20:11,730
he would go around and around that post,

498
00:20:12,270 --> 00:20:14,650
and screaming and yelling, and they'd throw him

499
00:20:14,650 --> 00:20:16,750
little things, an orange or, you know, or

500
00:20:16,750 --> 00:20:18,010
a banana or something or another, and he'd

501
00:20:18,010 --> 00:20:18,750
eat it like an animal.

502
00:20:19,390 --> 00:20:21,930
And I got back on that bus.

503
00:20:22,410 --> 00:20:25,250
I can't explain to you, you know, the

504
00:20:25,250 --> 00:20:27,530
depth of my feelings when I said, oh

505
00:20:27,530 --> 00:20:30,050
God, He is an immortal soul too.

506
00:20:30,770 --> 00:20:34,570
He is an immortal soul, and inside of

507
00:20:34,570 --> 00:20:36,490
me I said, if that man was born

508
00:20:36,490 --> 00:20:39,410
that way, and he did not deliberately transgress

509
00:20:39,410 --> 00:20:41,650
against God, his hard times are here.

510
00:20:42,170 --> 00:20:44,050
God would not permit a person like that

511
00:20:44,050 --> 00:20:46,550
to go to hell, because you can't go

512
00:20:46,550 --> 00:20:47,650
to hell unless you want to.

513
00:20:47,970 --> 00:20:49,790
There are no accidents in hell, you know.

514
00:20:50,190 --> 00:20:51,530
There are no people that slid in there

515
00:20:51,530 --> 00:20:51,890
sideways.

516
00:20:52,410 --> 00:20:53,870
You walk in straight forward.

517
00:20:54,270 --> 00:20:56,190
You walk in there in pure disobedience.

518
00:20:56,470 --> 00:20:58,230
You don't get there by accident.

519
00:20:58,410 --> 00:20:58,710
Never.

520
00:20:59,190 --> 00:20:59,490
Nobody does.

521
00:21:00,310 --> 00:21:02,950
But my feelings were so deep for this

522
00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:03,290
person.

523
00:21:03,890 --> 00:21:05,650
If you could have been with me in

524
00:21:05,650 --> 00:21:10,510
the Philippines when I prayed for Clarita Villanueva

525
00:21:10,510 --> 00:21:14,750
in the city jail, in Villabid prison in

526
00:21:14,750 --> 00:21:16,850
downtown Manila, and if you could have seen

527
00:21:16,850 --> 00:21:20,030
those teeth marks that I saw that sunk

528
00:21:20,030 --> 00:21:21,910
into her body a quarter of an inch

529
00:21:21,910 --> 00:21:25,530
deep, and blood run 12, 10, 9 to

530
00:21:25,530 --> 00:21:28,790
10 to 12 inches across as that monster,

531
00:21:29,190 --> 00:21:31,850
invisible monster, bit her, and that it had

532
00:21:31,850 --> 00:21:33,970
been in the local newspapers for three weeks.

533
00:21:34,470 --> 00:21:36,570
The doctors had reported it every day.

534
00:21:36,990 --> 00:21:39,290
They had sent out for help, for psychologists

535
00:21:39,290 --> 00:21:42,970
and psychiatrists and anybody to come and help,

536
00:21:43,430 --> 00:21:45,790
and nobody was coming to the rescue of

537
00:21:45,790 --> 00:21:46,430
this little girl.

538
00:21:46,710 --> 00:21:48,950
If you could have seen her faint into

539
00:21:48,950 --> 00:21:51,590
a coma, bitten by this thing, and look

540
00:21:51,590 --> 00:21:53,790
with your own hand, with your own eyes

541
00:21:53,790 --> 00:21:54,290
and see.

542
00:21:55,130 --> 00:21:57,470
You talk about getting angry at the devil.

543
00:21:58,070 --> 00:22:01,110
Brother, I got angry at the devil, and

544
00:22:01,110 --> 00:22:03,770
that day we set her free, and she

545
00:22:03,770 --> 00:22:05,030
is free until this day.

546
00:22:05,430 --> 00:22:07,070
But you've got to have compassion.

547
00:22:08,430 --> 00:22:11,450
The church doesn't have compassion.

548
00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:15,690
You know, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus looked and saw

549
00:22:15,690 --> 00:22:16,550
the people hurt.

550
00:22:16,930 --> 00:22:18,790
When He found a person that was possessed

551
00:22:18,790 --> 00:22:21,330
of the devil, He had compassion.

552
00:22:21,630 --> 00:22:24,270
He had feeling for them, and most of

553
00:22:24,270 --> 00:22:26,230
the church today, including the preachers, they have

554
00:22:26,230 --> 00:22:26,670
a feeling.

555
00:22:26,950 --> 00:22:28,050
It's a feeling of fear.

556
00:22:28,590 --> 00:22:30,650
They want to run away, and in our

557
00:22:30,650 --> 00:22:33,870
own town, in our own city, a family

558
00:22:33,870 --> 00:22:37,050
went to a local full gospel pastor and

559
00:22:37,050 --> 00:22:39,230
said, we have a problem in our home.

560
00:22:40,030 --> 00:22:43,610
Emotions have gone away, and my husband is

561
00:22:43,610 --> 00:22:45,550
about, is talking about suicide.

562
00:22:46,310 --> 00:22:49,550
And the minister said, well, put him in

563
00:22:49,550 --> 00:22:50,850
the asylum then, put him away.

564
00:22:51,890 --> 00:22:53,450
And she began to cry and says, he's

565
00:22:53,450 --> 00:22:54,010
my husband.

566
00:22:54,510 --> 00:22:55,430
I can't put him away.

567
00:22:55,970 --> 00:22:57,310
And though they didn't come to our church,

568
00:22:57,390 --> 00:22:58,070
they do now.

569
00:22:58,830 --> 00:22:59,730
They do now.

570
00:23:00,350 --> 00:23:03,410
She came to me with tears, and I

571
00:23:03,410 --> 00:23:04,270
went to see this man.

572
00:23:04,790 --> 00:23:06,370
Now you talk about the last rung of

573
00:23:06,370 --> 00:23:06,670
the ladder.

574
00:23:07,030 --> 00:23:08,450
He'd make new rungs on the bottom.

575
00:23:08,950 --> 00:23:11,790
He was way down there, and he wouldn't

576
00:23:11,790 --> 00:23:13,090
even look at me when I walked into

577
00:23:13,090 --> 00:23:14,030
the house, you see.

578
00:23:14,550 --> 00:23:17,390
And very slowly, I brought him up out

579
00:23:17,390 --> 00:23:18,450
of his despair.

580
00:23:19,070 --> 00:23:20,650
I brought him up out of that.

581
00:23:21,590 --> 00:23:23,470
He was a good, fine Christian, and he

582
00:23:23,470 --> 00:23:24,430
said, I'm lost.

583
00:23:24,690 --> 00:23:25,650
He says, I've never been saved.

584
00:23:26,010 --> 00:23:26,870
I'll never go to heaven.

585
00:23:27,330 --> 00:23:28,930
And I had to bring him above that,

586
00:23:29,410 --> 00:23:31,030
and that thing of taking his own life.

587
00:23:31,290 --> 00:23:31,930
I'm worthless.

588
00:23:32,230 --> 00:23:32,810
I'm useless.

589
00:23:33,350 --> 00:23:34,290
I'll take my life.

590
00:23:34,850 --> 00:23:40,010
And that man is completely, gloriously, wonderfully, joyfully

591
00:23:40,010 --> 00:23:42,830
restored as of this very moment, you see.

592
00:23:43,170 --> 00:23:45,670
And so we know the power of God,

593
00:23:46,030 --> 00:23:48,870
and in our introducing these studies to you,

594
00:23:49,090 --> 00:23:50,350
we want you to come to know the

595
00:23:50,350 --> 00:23:51,010
power of God.

596
00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:53,650
And you know the power of God by

597
00:23:53,650 --> 00:23:54,830
deep compassion.

598
00:23:55,370 --> 00:23:56,450
You got to feel something.

599
00:23:57,490 --> 00:23:59,430
Yeah, you got to feel something.

600
00:24:00,110 --> 00:24:02,470
If Jesus had not had compassion, He could

601
00:24:02,470 --> 00:24:03,450
not have set men free.

602
00:24:03,930 --> 00:24:07,150
And unless the church today can go on

603
00:24:07,150 --> 00:24:10,230
their knees before the Almighty and search themselves

604
00:24:10,230 --> 00:24:13,190
out and have compassion, we cannot set this

605
00:24:13,190 --> 00:24:13,710
world free.

606
00:24:14,350 --> 00:24:17,070
There are literally millions of Americans right now

607
00:24:17,070 --> 00:24:20,530
who've lost their mental equilibriums and their emotional

608
00:24:20,530 --> 00:24:24,110
balance, and they need love, and they need

609
00:24:24,110 --> 00:24:24,610
compassion.

610
00:24:25,810 --> 00:24:27,150
They do not need sympathy.

611
00:24:27,670 --> 00:24:28,430
Oh, dear darling.

612
00:24:28,550 --> 00:24:28,870
Oh, dear.

613
00:24:28,990 --> 00:24:29,970
No, they don't need that.

614
00:24:30,510 --> 00:24:31,650
Love is deeper than that.

615
00:24:32,210 --> 00:24:34,790
Love will spank you, mom and daddy says.

616
00:24:34,970 --> 00:24:35,110
Yeah.

617
00:24:35,790 --> 00:24:36,950
Pure love will spank you.

618
00:24:37,410 --> 00:24:38,830
Pure love will discipline you.

619
00:24:39,950 --> 00:24:42,570
And so we're talking about something deeper than

620
00:24:42,570 --> 00:24:43,390
saying, oh, I'm sorry.

621
00:24:43,610 --> 00:24:44,390
No, no, no.

622
00:24:44,550 --> 00:24:47,450
We're talking about deliverance by the mighty power

623
00:24:47,450 --> 00:24:49,110
of the Most High God setting you free

624
00:24:49,110 --> 00:24:52,210
and commanding your mind to be stable and

625
00:24:52,210 --> 00:24:57,690
commanding any interference into your life from outside

626
00:24:57,690 --> 00:25:02,690
entities, disturbing you to say, you go and

627
00:25:02,690 --> 00:25:03,790
don't you come back.

628
00:25:04,130 --> 00:25:07,230
I set them free from the authority of

629
00:25:07,230 --> 00:25:09,430
the one who died on Calvary to set

630
00:25:09,430 --> 00:25:11,490
the world free, and you better believe it.

631
00:25:12,690 --> 00:25:13,770
You know, it works.

632
00:25:14,430 --> 00:25:15,130
It just works.

633
00:25:15,250 --> 00:25:15,630
That's all.

634
00:25:16,090 --> 00:25:17,110
It just works.

635
00:25:17,590 --> 00:25:19,110
And so we want to wake the Christians

636
00:25:19,110 --> 00:25:21,070
up to see the world that we live

637
00:25:21,070 --> 00:25:21,530
in today.

638
00:25:22,710 --> 00:25:25,430
Now, I have been greatly criticized for what

639
00:25:25,430 --> 00:25:27,570
I have shared with you in this first

640
00:25:27,570 --> 00:25:27,910
lesson.

641
00:25:28,910 --> 00:25:31,910
You've got to be able to accept that.

642
00:25:32,230 --> 00:25:34,150
If you're not able to accept that, the

643
00:25:34,150 --> 00:25:35,510
devil will defeat you quite easily.

644
00:25:36,050 --> 00:25:37,510
You've got to be willing to be mocked,

645
00:25:37,550 --> 00:25:39,670
to be laughed at, to be misunderstood in

646
00:25:39,670 --> 00:25:41,990
order to do what God wants you to

647
00:25:41,990 --> 00:25:42,170
do.

648
00:25:43,250 --> 00:25:45,470
But we live in a time when millions

649
00:25:45,470 --> 00:25:46,710
of Christians want information.

650
00:25:47,170 --> 00:25:48,110
They're seeking information.

651
00:25:48,410 --> 00:25:49,970
They want to understand how to discern demon

652
00:25:49,970 --> 00:25:53,630
power and how to exorcise demons from people.

653
00:25:53,950 --> 00:25:55,810
And they want to know how to keep

654
00:25:55,810 --> 00:25:58,250
people free from all satanic forces.

655
00:25:58,590 --> 00:26:00,630
I mean, we live in a beautiful moment

656
00:26:00,630 --> 00:26:01,410
of history.

657
00:26:01,730 --> 00:26:03,090
God wants them to do it.

658
00:26:03,450 --> 00:26:05,110
Now, Father, I believe you right now to

659
00:26:05,110 --> 00:26:06,050
set my neighbors free.

660
00:26:06,570 --> 00:26:08,530
I believe you right now to set everyone

661
00:26:08,530 --> 00:26:08,890
free.

662
00:26:09,290 --> 00:26:10,470
I believe you right now.

663
00:26:10,510 --> 00:26:12,390
I break the power of the evil one

664
00:26:12,390 --> 00:26:12,890
over you.

665
00:26:13,430 --> 00:26:14,990
In Jesus' name, be free.

666
00:26:14,990 --> 00:26:16,590
I'd like to hear from you.

667
00:26:17,030 --> 00:26:20,430
I'd like for you to communicate with me

668
00:26:20,430 --> 00:26:22,710
and say, Brother Sumrall, I do want to

669
00:26:22,710 --> 00:26:23,070
be free.

670
00:26:23,510 --> 00:26:25,170
And we will help you to be free

671
00:26:25,170 --> 00:26:26,190
in Jesus' name.

672
00:26:26,210 --> 00:26:28,710
I'd be delighted if all of you had

673
00:26:28,710 --> 00:26:29,770
this beautiful syllabus.

674
00:26:30,050 --> 00:26:31,150
This is a handmade book.

675
00:26:31,770 --> 00:26:32,630
It's expensive.

676
00:26:33,110 --> 00:26:34,090
It's a handmade book.

677
00:26:34,270 --> 00:26:36,650
And it's not easy to create.

678
00:26:36,790 --> 00:26:38,810
But it's a lesson book for students.

679
00:26:39,190 --> 00:26:40,570
And you should have it.

680
00:26:40,570 --> 00:26:43,490
And also in the audio, we would be

681
00:26:43,490 --> 00:26:45,310
glad for you to have the whole audio

682
00:26:45,310 --> 00:26:48,170
story of all of these lessons, of all

683
00:26:48,170 --> 00:26:48,710
of these lessons.

684
00:26:49,110 --> 00:26:50,670
And hear them.

685
00:26:51,090 --> 00:26:52,310
If you hear them and read them together.

686
00:26:52,790 --> 00:26:53,890
And then the video.

687
00:26:54,310 --> 00:26:56,170
The video is as the audio.

688
00:26:56,310 --> 00:26:59,030
It's exactly every word that you have heard,

689
00:26:59,130 --> 00:26:59,890
it is there.

690
00:27:00,290 --> 00:27:02,070
And these are the three ways in which

691
00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:05,590
you can obtain these lessons and study them

692
00:27:05,590 --> 00:27:08,350
and grow with them and share them.

693
00:27:08,550 --> 00:27:10,210
Maybe that's the strongest word.

694
00:27:10,310 --> 00:27:11,010
And share them.

695
00:27:11,510 --> 00:27:14,590
This is the most wonderful hour of the

696
00:27:14,590 --> 00:27:15,310
Christian church.

697
00:27:15,550 --> 00:27:18,150
This is the golden hour of the Christian

698
00:27:18,150 --> 00:27:18,510
church.

699
00:27:18,830 --> 00:27:20,850
Let's go and set the world free.

700
00:27:21,330 --> 00:27:23,190
Let's go and bless the world in which

701
00:27:23,190 --> 00:27:23,570
we live.

702
00:27:23,930 --> 00:27:25,410
May God bless all of you students here.

703
00:27:25,770 --> 00:27:27,110
And may God bless all of you that

704
00:27:27,110 --> 00:27:29,210
will receive these words as they come to

705
00:27:29,210 --> 00:27:31,910
you through television and also through the tape

706
00:27:31,910 --> 00:27:32,310
ministry.

707
00:27:32,550 --> 00:27:33,470
May God bless you.

708
00:27:33,810 --> 00:27:36,090
And above all, may the Lord set you

709
00:27:36,090 --> 00:27:36,290
free.

710
00:27:36,290 --> 00:27:39,430
Whom the son sets free is free indeed.

711
00:27:39,670 --> 00:27:40,550
Be free.

712
00:27:41,190 --> 00:27:42,230
Thank you.

713
00:27:44,140 --> 00:27:45,500
God bless you, everybody.

714
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:47,620
You may be seated.

715
00:27:47,860 --> 00:27:50,260
It's a great honor to stand before you

716
00:27:50,260 --> 00:27:57,500
and to explain the word of God as

717
00:27:57,500 --> 00:27:58,160
we see it.

718
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,320
And we thank you for being a student

719
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:02,940
of the word.

720
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:09,260
There are so many people today that for

721
00:28:09,260 --> 00:28:12,420
none obvious reasons do not study the word

722
00:28:12,420 --> 00:28:12,880
of God.

723
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,720
And so they don't have an answer in

724
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:16,520
the time of trouble.

725
00:28:17,300 --> 00:28:19,060
They don't have an answer when they have

726
00:28:19,060 --> 00:28:22,260
a person that needs talking to because they

727
00:28:22,260 --> 00:28:25,440
haven't attended unto the word of God.

728
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,660
We are in the middle of a very

729
00:28:28,660 --> 00:28:30,520
exciting topic.

730
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,980
It's called the rapture and the revelation of

731
00:28:35,980 --> 00:28:36,760
the Lord Jesus.

732
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,080
The purpose in dealing with this so strong

733
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,140
was that many people think there's just one

734
00:28:44,140 --> 00:28:45,000
coming of the Lord.

735
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,800
And they don't realize that Jesus is coming

736
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,760
by what we call rapture.

737
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:52,200
The word may not be in the Bible,

738
00:28:52,340 --> 00:28:54,940
but that's not necessary for it to be

739
00:28:54,940 --> 00:28:55,220
there.

740
00:28:55,340 --> 00:28:57,520
We can call it the catching away of

741
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:02,900
the church, which will be possibly sometime during

742
00:29:02,900 --> 00:29:04,880
the tribulation period.

743
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,560
And then we will go and be with

744
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,520
him and have the marriage supper of the

745
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:15,260
Lamb and also have at that time the

746
00:29:15,260 --> 00:29:16,820
judgment seat of Christ.

747
00:29:17,540 --> 00:29:19,300
At the judgment seat of Christ, there will

748
00:29:19,300 --> 00:29:21,380
be no sinners there at all.

749
00:29:21,980 --> 00:29:24,180
There will only be the righteous there.

750
00:29:24,780 --> 00:29:27,180
And maybe judgment seat is a kind of

751
00:29:27,180 --> 00:29:29,720
a bad name for it because at that

752
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,960
time God, the Lord Jesus, will be giving

753
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,260
us positions for the millennial kingdom because it

754
00:29:36,260 --> 00:29:37,900
says we shall reign with him.

755
00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:40,580
Because soon after that, we come back with

756
00:29:40,580 --> 00:29:43,540
him riding white horses to fight the Antichrist.

757
00:29:43,660 --> 00:29:46,560
We are in his army at the time

758
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,980
of the destroying of the Antichrist and the

759
00:29:48,980 --> 00:29:51,600
nations that have stood with the Antichrist.

760
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,400
And then you have the revelation of Jesus

761
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,840
when he comes to fight.

762
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,800
So maybe it's at least three and a

763
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,920
half years difference between rapture and revelation.

764
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:11,820
But they are two different and remarkable events.

765
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,360
The first one, Jesus does not touch the

766
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:14,580
earth.

767
00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:15,940
He appears in the air.

768
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,620
And he takes his church.

769
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:21,140
The dead in Christ shall rise.

770
00:30:21,260 --> 00:30:22,520
We that are ready remain shall be caught

771
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,700
up together with him in the air.

772
00:30:25,180 --> 00:30:26,700
And we shall forever be with the Lord.

773
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:28,500
You like that word forever?

774
00:30:29,060 --> 00:30:32,100
Yeah, I believe that too, that we shall

775
00:30:32,100 --> 00:30:34,320
forever be with the Lord.

776
00:30:34,900 --> 00:30:36,520
Then we shall come with him.

777
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:38,940
And at that time they shall see him

778
00:30:38,940 --> 00:30:40,120
whom they have pierced.

779
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:41,300
Not the first time.

780
00:30:42,100 --> 00:30:44,800
No one shall see him except those that

781
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,720
are caught away into the bride of Christ.

782
00:30:47,340 --> 00:30:50,340
And so they are the two different comings

783
00:30:50,340 --> 00:30:52,780
of the Lord Jesus Christ.

784
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,520
We have worked our way over to page

785
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,960
77 in the teaching syllabus.

786
00:31:01,100 --> 00:31:04,840
And in your lesson it says that we

787
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,280
should begin with a manner of his coming.

788
00:31:09,380 --> 00:31:12,980
That would be point number eight in this

789
00:31:12,980 --> 00:31:13,880
lesson.

790
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,780
When he comes, he told us himself in

791
00:31:19,780 --> 00:31:24,000
Matthew 24 and 27 that he will come

792
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,980
as lightning that flashes out of the east

793
00:31:25,980 --> 00:31:26,760
into the west.

794
00:31:27,900 --> 00:31:32,900
And lightning moves with a rapidity of light,

795
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,640
of course, which means it will be an

796
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:36,540
instant coming.

797
00:31:37,060 --> 00:31:38,860
It will not be a slow event.

798
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,200
It will not be an event that takes

799
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:42,200
place by steps.

800
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:44,300
And that'll be it.

801
00:31:44,860 --> 00:31:47,240
He will appear, the trump of God shall

802
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,720
sound, and God's people will hear that.

803
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,800
And the dead in Christ shall rise again.

804
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,960
Now, the dead in Christ are not in

805
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:56,400
the grave.

806
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,080
They shall have to come back and pick

807
00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,180
up their remains there.

808
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:01,660
They are with Christ.

809
00:32:02,140 --> 00:32:03,700
They'll come back and pick up their remains,

810
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,240
and then they shall go to meet the

811
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,040
Lord in the air.

812
00:32:07,460 --> 00:32:08,900
And we that are ready to remain, we

813
00:32:08,900 --> 00:32:11,120
should be caught up with him, and we

814
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,380
shall go and be with the Lord forever.

815
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,680
He will appear publicly and will be seen

816
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,860
by all men in the manner of his

817
00:32:20,860 --> 00:32:22,820
coming, Matthew 24 and 30.

818
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,280
And then shall all the tribes of the

819
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,340
earth mourn, and they shall see the Son

820
00:32:27,340 --> 00:32:28,980
of Man coming in the clouds of heaven

821
00:32:28,980 --> 00:32:34,080
with power and great and great glory.

822
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,340
Now, that has to be at the time

823
00:32:37,340 --> 00:32:39,700
of the revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ

824
00:32:39,700 --> 00:32:42,220
and not at the rapture, because at the

825
00:32:42,220 --> 00:32:44,260
rapture they will not see him.

826
00:32:44,460 --> 00:32:46,400
Only those that are caught up with him

827
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,600
together shall see him at that time.

828
00:32:50,260 --> 00:32:51,460
He will come in brightness.

829
00:32:52,220 --> 00:32:54,960
He is the giver of light, and his

830
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,580
brightness was as the light.

831
00:32:58,220 --> 00:33:01,820
He had horns coming out of his hand,

832
00:33:02,020 --> 00:33:04,580
and there was a hiding of his power.

833
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,660
When he comes, he will come at that

834
00:33:08,660 --> 00:33:11,380
time as the brightest spectacle that has ever

835
00:33:11,380 --> 00:33:12,740
taken place upon this earth.

836
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,040
The brightness of the sun will be very

837
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,100
insignificant to the brightness of his coming.

838
00:33:18,260 --> 00:33:20,060
So he will come quickly.

839
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,280
He will come publicly.

840
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,160
He will come with great brightness.

841
00:33:23,900 --> 00:33:26,100
D, he will come back to the place

842
00:33:26,100 --> 00:33:28,180
from which he departed.

843
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,280
And Zechariah 14 and forward, and it says,

844
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,540
And his feet shall stand, and that day,

845
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,000
say, that day, not before, and that day

846
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,580
upon the Mount of Olives, which is before

847
00:33:40,580 --> 00:33:43,080
Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of

848
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,600
Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward

849
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,760
the east and toward the west.

850
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:53,620
That is very remarkable, because the structure of

851
00:33:53,620 --> 00:33:56,780
the earth in a hill is north and

852
00:33:56,780 --> 00:33:57,560
south, you see.

853
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,720
It strings itself along up and down, and

854
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,980
he's going to abruptly change the direction and

855
00:34:02,980 --> 00:34:07,340
go east and west with this breach that

856
00:34:07,340 --> 00:34:09,440
shall come into the Mount of Olives, and

857
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,219
which shall make Jerusalem almost a seaside city,

858
00:34:13,420 --> 00:34:15,560
that water will flow up.

859
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,440
And scientists have already discovered that sea of

860
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,480
fresh water far down below Jerusalem, and they

861
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:22,320
can't get to it.

862
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,679
But after the earthquake, it won't need them

863
00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:26,360
to look for it.

864
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,239
Everybody will see it.

865
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,080
There should be so much of it that

866
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:34,239
it will heal the Dead Sea, and waters

867
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:38,120
will flow from the Dead Sea down into

868
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,100
the Red Sea, and there will be no

869
00:34:40,100 --> 00:34:43,260
more of a Dead Sea after that time.

870
00:34:44,139 --> 00:34:45,980
East and toward the west, and there should

871
00:34:45,980 --> 00:34:48,440
be a very great valley, and half of

872
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,780
the mountains shall remove toward the north, and

873
00:34:51,780 --> 00:34:54,760
half of it shall be removed toward the

874
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:55,199
south.

875
00:34:55,780 --> 00:34:58,300
And so when he comes back, there's going

876
00:34:58,300 --> 00:35:00,060
to be a great movement in the earth.

877
00:35:00,620 --> 00:35:02,400
And this number here, we're trying to tell

878
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,260
you something about what will happen at the

879
00:35:04,260 --> 00:35:06,020
time of his coming.

880
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,200
In your E, it says he will come

881
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,140
in the same manner in which he went

882
00:35:10,140 --> 00:35:10,480
away.

883
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,580
That's in Acts 1 and 11, which also

884
00:35:14,580 --> 00:35:17,060
said the angels did.

885
00:35:17,420 --> 00:35:19,460
You men of Galilee, why stand you gazing

886
00:35:19,460 --> 00:35:20,140
up into heaven?

887
00:35:20,260 --> 00:35:24,120
The same Jesus, say same Jesus, this is

888
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,220
2,000 years later, but it's the same

889
00:35:26,220 --> 00:35:29,000
Jesus, which is taken up from you into

890
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,060
heaven, shall so come in like manner as

891
00:35:33,060 --> 00:35:35,460
you have seen him go into heaven.

892
00:35:35,820 --> 00:35:38,380
So he will be seen at that time,

893
00:35:38,380 --> 00:35:40,140
and he will come back to the same

894
00:35:40,140 --> 00:35:42,400
spot that he went away from.

895
00:35:42,580 --> 00:35:45,380
And so what a day, what an opportunity

896
00:35:45,380 --> 00:35:47,600
that will be to be there with him.

897
00:35:47,940 --> 00:35:49,380
Don't you like to see great things take

898
00:35:49,380 --> 00:35:49,680
place?

899
00:35:50,420 --> 00:35:52,780
And we will see them at that time.

900
00:35:52,860 --> 00:35:55,840
He will come back, your F point, and

901
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,020
that's on page 78.

902
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,620
He will come with clouds, that's Revelation 1

903
00:36:01,620 --> 00:36:02,120
and 7.

904
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:06,160
Behold, he cometh with clouds, and you see

905
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:07,240
that over in the book of Daniel.

906
00:36:07,380 --> 00:36:08,600
We'll read that in just a moment.

907
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,840
He cometh with clouds, and every eye shall

908
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:13,320
see him.

909
00:36:13,720 --> 00:36:15,580
Now that cannot be rapture, that has to

910
00:36:15,580 --> 00:36:18,500
be revelation, when he comes back.

911
00:36:19,220 --> 00:36:21,140
For many years, people said, now how in

912
00:36:21,140 --> 00:36:22,060
the world could that be?

913
00:36:22,540 --> 00:36:23,980
Says it don't matter if he's big as

914
00:36:23,980 --> 00:36:25,460
a mountain, everybody couldn't see him.

915
00:36:25,820 --> 00:36:27,220
Well, they didn't know that God was going

916
00:36:27,220 --> 00:36:28,940
to release the facilities of television.

917
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,180
And now he has released it until one

918
00:36:32,180 --> 00:36:34,580
can be in any part of the world

919
00:36:34,580 --> 00:36:36,880
and can see something taking place in any

920
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:37,780
other part of the world.

921
00:36:38,180 --> 00:36:41,140
And so we today have the facility, which

922
00:36:41,140 --> 00:36:42,440
means that we're close to the time of

923
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,420
seeing it because a man might use these

924
00:36:45,420 --> 00:36:47,700
things, but God ordained them in order to

925
00:36:47,700 --> 00:36:49,720
bring about the completion of his word.

926
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,800
He will come with clouds, Revelation 1 and

927
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:53,040
7.

928
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,760
Behold, he cometh with clouds, every eye shall

929
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:57,200
see him.

930
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:58,860
That has to be by television.

931
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,580
And they also which pierced him, and all

932
00:37:02,580 --> 00:37:05,920
the kindreds of the earth shall wail because

933
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:06,540
of him.

934
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,380
And so when he comes in his revelation,

935
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,740
even his enemies, those that said his blood

936
00:37:13,740 --> 00:37:16,820
be upon us and our children, that they

937
00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:18,540
shall come to understand that they were wrong

938
00:37:18,540 --> 00:37:21,120
and that he was the Messiah, and that

939
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,620
they made a mistake, and they will wail

940
00:37:23,620 --> 00:37:26,140
because of it, and they will seek the

941
00:37:26,140 --> 00:37:27,100
Lord at that time.

942
00:37:27,580 --> 00:37:30,180
Daniel 7, 13, I saw in the night

943
00:37:30,180 --> 00:37:33,780
visions, and behold, one like the Son of

944
00:37:33,780 --> 00:37:34,140
Man.

945
00:37:35,060 --> 00:37:38,480
Jesus called himself the Son of Man 78

946
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:39,340
times.

947
00:37:40,340 --> 00:37:44,120
And it's a beautiful designation in that it

948
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,840
makes him a part of mankind.

949
00:37:47,060 --> 00:37:50,100
It makes him have a relationship with mankind.

950
00:37:50,820 --> 00:37:53,000
The devil has no idea how you feel

951
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:53,700
about anything.

952
00:37:54,060 --> 00:37:56,180
He has never been a human, never been

953
00:37:56,180 --> 00:37:57,480
one, so he has no idea how you

954
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,500
feel about anything.

955
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,840
But Jesus, having lived here, and having suffered

956
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,280
anything, everything you might have suffered, then he

957
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,440
has an understanding and a comprehension of anything

958
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,220
that might happen to any feelings you might

959
00:38:12,220 --> 00:38:14,200
have, any sorrows you might have.

960
00:38:14,420 --> 00:38:18,480
He has an acute understanding of that.

961
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:22,340
And so Daniel says, I saw in the

962
00:38:22,340 --> 00:38:25,220
night vision one like the Son of Man,

963
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:29,280
who is identified with mankind as a man.

964
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,180
And he came with the clouds of heaven,

965
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,360
and clouds are so often used as a

966
00:38:36,900 --> 00:38:38,240
time for the Holy Spirit.

967
00:38:39,740 --> 00:38:41,980
And the clouds of heaven, and he came

968
00:38:41,980 --> 00:38:43,300
to the Ancient of Days.

969
00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:47,820
Now, I don't see how any Jewish person

970
00:38:47,820 --> 00:38:51,100
or Jesus-only apostolic person could read that

971
00:38:51,100 --> 00:38:53,360
verse and have any understanding of it and

972
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,100
say that there was only one in heaven,

973
00:38:56,780 --> 00:38:59,600
you know, because it specifically says a thousand

974
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,120
times in the Bible that there are more

975
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:01,580
than one.

976
00:39:01,580 --> 00:39:03,700
And so how one could say there was

977
00:39:03,700 --> 00:39:06,440
only one when there's so many references of

978
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,480
it, there being more than one.

979
00:39:08,580 --> 00:39:11,400
If we just follow the word simply, and,

980
00:39:11,420 --> 00:39:14,040
you know, and like a child would follow

981
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:15,260
it, I think we'd come to a better

982
00:39:15,260 --> 00:39:16,920
understanding of what God was saying.

983
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:18,360
Can you say amen?

984
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:23,380
And so he came to the Ancient of

985
00:39:23,380 --> 00:39:27,360
Days, which is the Father, and they brought

986
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:28,760
him near before him.

987
00:39:30,220 --> 00:39:33,680
And, you know, you should really mark that

988
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,360
and keep reading it, because the Father gave

989
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:43,280
unto him power, glory, and majesty, and all

990
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,480
that the Lord Jesus Christ has, he received

991
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:46,660
from the Father.

992
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,320
And it's a beautiful prophecy that is going

993
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:52,700
to come to pass, and we're going to

994
00:39:52,700 --> 00:39:53,180
see it.

995
00:39:53,820 --> 00:39:56,140
In Eugenia, it says he will come as

996
00:39:56,140 --> 00:39:57,280
a judge and a king.

997
00:39:57,620 --> 00:40:00,680
Not only will he come with glory and

998
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:04,300
majesty, but he shall come as a king,

999
00:40:04,540 --> 00:40:07,460
in Isaiah 11, 3, and shall make him

1000
00:40:07,460 --> 00:40:10,920
of quick understanding in the fear of the

1001
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:15,160
Lord, and he shall not judge after the

1002
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,200
sight of his eyes, neither reprove by the

1003
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,960
hearing of his ears, but with righteousness shall

1004
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:27,020
he judge the poor, and reprove with equity

1005
00:40:27,020 --> 00:40:29,240
for the meek of the earth.

1006
00:40:29,340 --> 00:40:30,660
Now that's going to be for a thousand

1007
00:40:30,660 --> 00:40:33,080
years that this is going to come about.

1008
00:40:33,340 --> 00:40:36,220
And he shall smite the earth with the

1009
00:40:36,220 --> 00:40:39,920
rod of his mouth, and with the breath

1010
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:44,060
of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

1011
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,780
And so here we have a direct reference

1012
00:40:46,780 --> 00:40:51,280
to the terminating war with the Antichrist, and

1013
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,560
then with how he shall rule this earth

1014
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:55,960
for 1,000 years.

1015
00:40:56,420 --> 00:40:59,520
And he will rule in righteousness, but not

1016
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,260
only in righteousness, but also with great authority.

1017
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,380
And righteousness shall be the girdle of his

1018
00:41:05,380 --> 00:41:08,640
loins, and faithfulness of the girdle of his

1019
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:09,080
reins.

1020
00:41:09,500 --> 00:41:12,380
And so he shall rule in righteousness, and

1021
00:41:12,380 --> 00:41:15,620
he shall also rule in faithfulness to the

1022
00:41:15,620 --> 00:41:17,220
people upon this earth.

1023
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,920
Are you really interested in the things that

1024
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:20,420
are to come?

1025
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,980
It is remarkable to me that we have

1026
00:41:24,980 --> 00:41:28,020
a book that tells us the things that

1027
00:41:28,020 --> 00:41:29,160
shall come to pass.

1028
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,840
And the devil would like for the whole

1029
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:32,840
world to be dull.

1030
00:41:34,180 --> 00:41:36,660
2,000 years ago, he caused a whole

1031
00:41:36,660 --> 00:41:37,700
nation to be dull.

1032
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,320
Here, dozens of scriptures were fulfilled that were

1033
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,120
written by the prophets of the Old Testament,

1034
00:41:44,380 --> 00:41:47,080
and they knew those scriptures, but they couldn't

1035
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,700
place them into the life of Jesus.

1036
00:41:49,100 --> 00:41:50,180
You know, they were dull.

1037
00:41:50,620 --> 00:41:52,580
They just had no ability to do it.

1038
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,500
If they tried to do it, it just

1039
00:41:54,500 --> 00:41:57,700
seemed to them, you know, that it wasn't

1040
00:41:57,700 --> 00:41:59,040
the one that they were looking for.

1041
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,340
Now, in these last days, the world's going

1042
00:42:01,340 --> 00:42:02,480
to be in the same shape.

1043
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,120
Religious leaders are not going to accept the

1044
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,800
nearness of the coming of the Lord Jesus

1045
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:08,360
Christ.

1046
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,240
And those that should be teaching won't have

1047
00:42:11,240 --> 00:42:13,720
anything to say for the simple reason they

1048
00:42:13,720 --> 00:42:17,800
haven't studied the scriptures to understand how it

1049
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,660
will happen in the time of the return

1050
00:42:19,660 --> 00:42:21,200
of the Lord Jesus Christ.

1051
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,900
But we have studied for many lessons all

1052
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:27,900
of these mysteries that are coming to pass.

1053
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,340
And they're preachers that just refuse to give

1054
00:42:31,340 --> 00:42:32,120
a lot of attention.

1055
00:42:32,500 --> 00:42:34,600
They say that's a difficult part of the

1056
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:35,240
Word of God.

1057
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,200
It don't matter whether it's difficult or not.

1058
00:42:37,860 --> 00:42:40,840
I think we have a responsibility to people

1059
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:44,260
to teach the entire and the whole complete

1060
00:42:44,260 --> 00:42:45,180
Word of God.

1061
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,920
And so I think the Lord wants to

1062
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,160
talk to us and say, learn it all,

1063
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,560
teach it all, live it all, until He

1064
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:54,400
comes in glory.

1065
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,980
And all the people said, let it be

1066
00:42:56,980 --> 00:42:57,420
that way.

1067
00:42:57,980 --> 00:43:00,040
Now, in your point number nine, His appearance

1068
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:04,270
and characteristics, we're trying to give you a

1069
00:43:04,270 --> 00:43:06,810
lot of details for the simple reason we

1070
00:43:06,810 --> 00:43:08,070
want you to be so full of facts

1071
00:43:08,070 --> 00:43:09,630
until you can't miss it, you know.

1072
00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:12,330
We only give you one or two scriptures,

1073
00:43:12,530 --> 00:43:14,510
then you say, well, I don't, I'm not

1074
00:43:14,510 --> 00:43:15,070
so sure of that.

1075
00:43:15,090 --> 00:43:16,210
But if we give you a few dozen,

1076
00:43:16,690 --> 00:43:19,130
for sure you're going to come to understand

1077
00:43:19,130 --> 00:43:20,830
what the Word of God teaches.

1078
00:43:21,490 --> 00:43:24,210
In His appearance and characteristics, He will have

1079
00:43:24,210 --> 00:43:26,810
eyes as a flame of fire, Revelation 1

1080
00:43:26,810 --> 00:43:27,270
14.

1081
00:43:28,030 --> 00:43:31,190
His head and His hair were white like

1082
00:43:31,190 --> 00:43:33,910
wool, as white as snow, and His eyes

1083
00:43:33,910 --> 00:43:36,470
were as a flame of fire.

1084
00:43:37,190 --> 00:43:38,770
Well, the righteous will be the same.

1085
00:43:38,850 --> 00:43:40,930
We will be like Jesus, and the righteous

1086
00:43:40,930 --> 00:43:41,710
will be the same.

1087
00:43:42,470 --> 00:43:46,290
We will have eyes like what Moses saw.

1088
00:43:46,770 --> 00:43:48,490
It burned, but it didn't hurt the tree

1089
00:43:48,490 --> 00:43:48,730
any.

1090
00:43:49,230 --> 00:43:51,570
And we will not have blue and black

1091
00:43:51,570 --> 00:43:51,890
eyes.

1092
00:43:52,030 --> 00:43:55,010
We're going, neither will we have skin that's

1093
00:43:55,010 --> 00:43:58,250
tanned or brown or black or white.

1094
00:43:58,470 --> 00:43:59,910
We won't, there won't ever be.

1095
00:44:00,530 --> 00:44:03,150
We should be a bronze color, something new

1096
00:44:03,150 --> 00:44:05,010
in the world.

1097
00:44:05,070 --> 00:44:05,910
We'll be like Jesus.

1098
00:44:05,910 --> 00:44:08,350
If you want to know what we're going

1099
00:44:08,350 --> 00:44:10,690
to look like in heaven, we are going

1100
00:44:10,690 --> 00:44:11,830
to look like Him.

1101
00:44:12,350 --> 00:44:14,670
In Revelation 2 18, and under the angel

1102
00:44:14,670 --> 00:44:18,370
of the church of Thyatira write, these things

1103
00:44:18,370 --> 00:44:21,210
saith the Son of God, who hath His

1104
00:44:21,210 --> 00:44:24,130
eyes like unto a flame of fire, and

1105
00:44:24,130 --> 00:44:26,830
His feet are like fine brass.

1106
00:44:27,130 --> 00:44:30,190
Then in Revelation 19 12, His eyes were

1107
00:44:30,190 --> 00:44:31,510
as a flame of fire.

1108
00:44:31,830 --> 00:44:34,030
And so you have those three references there

1109
00:44:34,030 --> 00:44:37,250
as to how His facial expression will be

1110
00:44:37,250 --> 00:44:38,390
at that time.

1111
00:44:38,790 --> 00:44:40,390
We won't be afraid of Him, of course,

1112
00:44:40,490 --> 00:44:41,930
because ours will be the same.

1113
00:44:42,210 --> 00:44:44,710
And it will be something so beautiful, we

1114
00:44:44,710 --> 00:44:47,030
will have never have seen anything like it

1115
00:44:47,030 --> 00:44:49,210
on the face of this earth.

1116
00:44:49,870 --> 00:44:51,470
And your B, it says on His head

1117
00:44:51,470 --> 00:44:54,030
there will be many crowns, Revelation 19 12,

1118
00:44:54,270 --> 00:44:57,750
and on His head were many crowns.

1119
00:44:57,990 --> 00:45:00,730
He will wear a vesture dipped in blood,

1120
00:45:00,890 --> 00:45:03,410
Revelation 19 3, and He was clothed with

1121
00:45:03,410 --> 00:45:05,510
a vesture dipped in blood.

1122
00:45:06,970 --> 00:45:11,010
Maybe you don't quite realize it, but the

1123
00:45:11,010 --> 00:45:14,150
only person in heaven who will bear any

1124
00:45:14,150 --> 00:45:16,250
marks of the earth will be the Lord

1125
00:45:16,250 --> 00:45:16,610
Jesus.

1126
00:45:17,490 --> 00:45:19,730
For all of eternity, when He raises His

1127
00:45:19,730 --> 00:45:21,730
hands, you're going to see the marks in

1128
00:45:21,730 --> 00:45:22,270
His hands.

1129
00:45:22,750 --> 00:45:23,410
You say, why?

1130
00:45:23,750 --> 00:45:25,910
He forever wants us to know that we

1131
00:45:25,910 --> 00:45:27,490
got there through those marks.

1132
00:45:28,530 --> 00:45:30,410
And so those marks have to be there

1133
00:45:30,410 --> 00:45:33,610
as a reminder that I paid the price

1134
00:45:33,610 --> 00:45:34,550
for you to be here.

1135
00:45:35,130 --> 00:45:37,010
Yeah, you did get in free, but I

1136
00:45:37,010 --> 00:45:38,130
didn't bring you in free.

1137
00:45:38,710 --> 00:45:40,510
I paid for those.

1138
00:45:40,630 --> 00:45:43,910
And so it is so essential for us

1139
00:45:43,910 --> 00:45:48,150
to know and to realize that in heaven

1140
00:45:48,150 --> 00:45:49,550
we will bear no marks.

1141
00:45:49,950 --> 00:45:51,710
If you've had your body cut 40 different

1142
00:45:51,710 --> 00:45:53,790
ways, in heaven there won't be a mark

1143
00:45:53,790 --> 00:45:54,690
of any kind there.

1144
00:45:54,910 --> 00:45:56,910
But the Lord will have in His feet

1145
00:45:56,910 --> 00:45:58,770
and in His side and in His hands

1146
00:45:58,770 --> 00:46:02,190
and possibly on His forehead marks of where

1147
00:46:02,190 --> 00:46:05,790
He purchased our salvation for us to live

1148
00:46:05,790 --> 00:46:07,290
there forever and ever.

1149
00:46:07,670 --> 00:46:10,170
And that that thing must not be forgotten.

1150
00:46:10,990 --> 00:46:12,370
You wouldn't like heaven anymore.

1151
00:46:13,490 --> 00:46:15,390
Or you think you merited your way to

1152
00:46:15,390 --> 00:46:15,670
heaven.

1153
00:46:15,910 --> 00:46:18,150
But when you see Him, you'll know that

1154
00:46:18,150 --> 00:46:20,270
He paid the cost for all of us

1155
00:46:20,270 --> 00:46:20,850
to go to heaven.

1156
00:46:21,830 --> 00:46:23,070
Are you glad for that?

1157
00:46:23,890 --> 00:46:26,290
Now, He will have many crowns upon His

1158
00:46:26,290 --> 00:46:26,730
head.

1159
00:46:27,610 --> 00:46:29,850
This earth is so eager for crowns.

1160
00:46:30,250 --> 00:46:31,490
It's a crowny place.

1161
00:46:31,590 --> 00:46:33,470
Everybody wants a crown of some kind.

1162
00:46:34,230 --> 00:46:36,470
And the Pope wears a triple crown.

1163
00:46:36,710 --> 00:46:38,790
And many of the kings of the past

1164
00:46:38,790 --> 00:46:41,850
have worn double and triple and quadruple crowns,

1165
00:46:41,850 --> 00:46:43,810
trying to show how great they are, trying

1166
00:46:43,810 --> 00:46:47,030
to manifest that they are something very important.

1167
00:46:47,450 --> 00:46:51,170
But this one here that's written, that's worn

1168
00:46:51,170 --> 00:46:54,310
by the Lord Jesus, He should have it.

1169
00:46:54,510 --> 00:46:55,850
He merited it.

1170
00:46:56,050 --> 00:46:57,470
He is King of Kings.

1171
00:46:57,570 --> 00:46:59,070
He is Lord of Lords.

1172
00:46:59,130 --> 00:47:02,670
He's supposed to have this crown and forever

1173
00:47:02,670 --> 00:47:03,510
He will wear it.

1174
00:47:03,910 --> 00:47:05,590
And we rejoice in it.

1175
00:47:05,990 --> 00:47:08,130
And as for what it looks like, just

1176
00:47:08,130 --> 00:47:09,510
wait until you get there.

1177
00:47:10,210 --> 00:47:12,170
Some things are so beautiful that the Scripture

1178
00:47:12,170 --> 00:47:13,650
defies us.

1179
00:47:13,870 --> 00:47:16,570
And so at that point in time, we'll

1180
00:47:16,570 --> 00:47:19,850
know and we will be sure of all

1181
00:47:19,850 --> 00:47:22,570
these things that are like a vision at

1182
00:47:22,570 --> 00:47:23,670
the present time.

1183
00:47:25,290 --> 00:47:29,070
And this fester dipped in blood, the purpose

1184
00:47:29,070 --> 00:47:31,070
for that is to show everybody in heaven

1185
00:47:31,070 --> 00:47:33,870
that it is by His blood that you

1186
00:47:33,870 --> 00:47:36,070
and I are in heaven through our salvation.

1187
00:47:36,650 --> 00:47:40,690
Number 10, He will also display regarding His

1188
00:47:40,690 --> 00:47:42,550
might or His strength.

1189
00:47:42,690 --> 00:47:45,410
Armies will follow Him on white horses, Revelation

1190
00:47:45,410 --> 00:47:46,370
19 and 4.

1191
00:47:46,850 --> 00:47:49,470
And the armies which were in heaven followed

1192
00:47:49,470 --> 00:47:53,090
Him upon white horses and says they will

1193
00:47:53,090 --> 00:47:55,630
be clothed in fine linen, white and clean,

1194
00:47:55,730 --> 00:47:56,950
Revelation 19 and 14.

1195
00:47:56,950 --> 00:47:59,130
And out of His mouth shall go a

1196
00:47:59,130 --> 00:48:03,670
sharp sword and He shall rue with a

1197
00:48:03,670 --> 00:48:06,570
rod of iron, Revelation 19 and 15.

1198
00:48:06,870 --> 00:48:08,550
And out of His mouth goeth a sharp

1199
00:48:08,550 --> 00:48:11,370
sword and He shall rue them with a

1200
00:48:11,370 --> 00:48:13,050
rod of iron.

1201
00:48:13,790 --> 00:48:15,670
You say, well, that don't sound much like

1202
00:48:15,670 --> 00:48:16,110
love.

1203
00:48:17,950 --> 00:48:21,810
We live in a very weak dispensation and

1204
00:48:21,810 --> 00:48:23,510
we live in a very weak generation.

1205
00:48:24,010 --> 00:48:26,930
We think if a parent disciplines a child,

1206
00:48:27,150 --> 00:48:29,210
that that is cruel, you know.

1207
00:48:30,370 --> 00:48:33,210
But that same person then goes and disciplines

1208
00:48:33,210 --> 00:48:36,830
the dog and goes out and disciplines the

1209
00:48:36,830 --> 00:48:39,790
horse and lets his kid run around like

1210
00:48:39,790 --> 00:48:41,070
a jackrabbit, you see.

1211
00:48:41,690 --> 00:48:42,990
Shows you how stupid we are.

1212
00:48:43,950 --> 00:48:46,250
If you are going to have something good,

1213
00:48:46,470 --> 00:48:47,690
you have to discipline it.

1214
00:48:48,330 --> 00:48:50,070
If you have this pot of flowers in

1215
00:48:50,070 --> 00:48:52,170
your backyard, if you don't keep it trimmed,

1216
00:48:52,570 --> 00:48:54,950
say trimmed, if you don't keep it trimmed

1217
00:48:54,950 --> 00:48:57,070
back, you're not going to have what you

1218
00:48:57,070 --> 00:48:58,530
want out of that pot of flowers.

1219
00:48:59,190 --> 00:49:01,810
And so discipline is so necessary for all

1220
00:49:01,810 --> 00:49:02,150
of us.

1221
00:49:02,690 --> 00:49:05,510
When you look through the Bible, most all

1222
00:49:05,510 --> 00:49:07,470
of the great men of God were men

1223
00:49:07,470 --> 00:49:10,150
and women that got disciplined by God somewhere

1224
00:49:10,150 --> 00:49:11,050
along the line.

1225
00:49:11,570 --> 00:49:14,830
And through that discipline, they gained strength and

1226
00:49:14,830 --> 00:49:16,250
they gained a knowledge of God.

1227
00:49:17,690 --> 00:49:20,150
We miss the true elements of what love

1228
00:49:20,150 --> 00:49:20,450
is.

1229
00:49:20,870 --> 00:49:22,710
We think that love is just something mushy,

1230
00:49:23,050 --> 00:49:25,230
you know, that never touches anything.

1231
00:49:25,850 --> 00:49:29,230
But that is not true of true love.

1232
00:49:29,830 --> 00:49:31,070
True love is strong.

1233
00:49:31,690 --> 00:49:33,170
True love makes demands.

1234
00:49:34,090 --> 00:49:37,550
And true love is a disciplined situation to

1235
00:49:37,550 --> 00:49:40,510
where we know we have to do certain

1236
00:49:40,510 --> 00:49:41,670
things and that is love.

1237
00:49:42,070 --> 00:49:43,770
When we know that we do have to

1238
00:49:43,770 --> 00:49:44,830
do those things.

1239
00:49:45,010 --> 00:49:45,190
All right.

1240
00:49:45,190 --> 00:49:48,250
And page 79.

1241
00:49:50,210 --> 00:49:52,150
The titles and names that the Lord Jesus

1242
00:49:52,150 --> 00:49:53,210
Christ would be having.

1243
00:49:54,070 --> 00:49:55,570
He would be called faithful and true.

1244
00:49:57,250 --> 00:49:59,130
Those are things you'd like to preach on

1245
00:49:59,130 --> 00:50:00,150
for an hour, you know.

1246
00:50:01,090 --> 00:50:01,530
Faithful.

1247
00:50:02,070 --> 00:50:03,890
That's the thing that most people are not.

1248
00:50:04,110 --> 00:50:04,810
They're not faithful.

1249
00:50:06,110 --> 00:50:07,970
They'll make a commitment to God, but they

1250
00:50:07,970 --> 00:50:09,090
won't keep it, you know.

1251
00:50:09,650 --> 00:50:10,630
They're not faithful.

1252
00:50:11,090 --> 00:50:12,790
They'll say, I'll do something and they don't

1253
00:50:12,790 --> 00:50:13,190
do it.

1254
00:50:13,190 --> 00:50:14,170
They're not faithful.

1255
00:50:14,390 --> 00:50:15,510
His name is faithful.

1256
00:50:16,170 --> 00:50:17,070
He is faithful.

1257
00:50:17,130 --> 00:50:19,570
He is the essence of all faithfulness.

1258
00:50:20,030 --> 00:50:21,450
If you have faithfulness, you got it from

1259
00:50:21,450 --> 00:50:21,690
Him.

1260
00:50:22,650 --> 00:50:24,590
And He is true with a capital T.

1261
00:50:25,250 --> 00:50:26,570
That means a personality.

1262
00:50:27,270 --> 00:50:28,670
That in Him there's no lie.

1263
00:50:28,850 --> 00:50:29,830
In Him there's no error.

1264
00:50:30,670 --> 00:50:32,170
In Him there's no falsehood.

1265
00:50:32,630 --> 00:50:35,890
There's only integrity inside of Him.

1266
00:50:36,250 --> 00:50:38,150
Truthfulness on the inside of Him.

1267
00:50:38,510 --> 00:50:41,050
And He that sat upon Him was called

1268
00:50:41,050 --> 00:50:42,830
faithful and true.

1269
00:50:43,370 --> 00:50:45,610
His name is the Word of God, Revelation

1270
00:50:45,610 --> 00:50:46,530
19, 13.

1271
00:50:46,650 --> 00:50:49,090
And His name is called the Word of

1272
00:50:49,090 --> 00:50:49,450
God.

1273
00:50:49,790 --> 00:50:51,810
That whatever God has said, He is the

1274
00:50:51,810 --> 00:50:52,570
expression of that.

1275
00:50:53,110 --> 00:50:55,410
A word is an expression of a thought.

1276
00:50:56,050 --> 00:50:57,950
God is that great and mighty thought.

1277
00:50:58,430 --> 00:51:00,470
And the expression of God is the Lord

1278
00:51:00,470 --> 00:51:01,290
Jesus Christ.

1279
00:51:01,710 --> 00:51:05,730
We know God the Father because of Jesus

1280
00:51:05,730 --> 00:51:06,270
Christ.

1281
00:51:06,830 --> 00:51:10,110
He is the essence of what the Father

1282
00:51:10,110 --> 00:51:13,810
is, comes out through the Word.

1283
00:51:14,130 --> 00:51:15,810
The way we know what you're thinking is

1284
00:51:15,810 --> 00:51:16,510
when you speak.

1285
00:51:16,930 --> 00:51:18,670
The way we know what you know is

1286
00:51:18,670 --> 00:51:19,390
when you speak.

1287
00:51:19,870 --> 00:51:22,010
And so the Lord Jesus is the spokesman

1288
00:51:22,010 --> 00:51:25,630
of heaven, and He brings to us the

1289
00:51:25,630 --> 00:51:26,510
essence of God.

1290
00:51:26,510 --> 00:51:28,610
He is the true Word.

1291
00:51:29,090 --> 00:51:30,530
He is the true Word.

1292
00:51:31,170 --> 00:51:33,010
His name is the Word of God.

1293
00:51:33,790 --> 00:51:36,450
And then, and you see, the Lamb is

1294
00:51:36,450 --> 00:51:37,870
the King of kings and the Lord of

1295
00:51:37,870 --> 00:51:38,230
lords.

1296
00:51:38,550 --> 00:51:41,450
And these shall make war with the Lamb,

1297
00:51:41,650 --> 00:51:43,550
and the Lamb shall overcome them.

1298
00:51:43,890 --> 00:51:46,150
For He is the Lord of lords, the

1299
00:51:46,150 --> 00:51:46,930
King of kings.

1300
00:51:47,290 --> 00:51:49,910
And they that are with Him are called

1301
00:51:49,910 --> 00:51:52,570
chosen and faithful.

1302
00:51:52,830 --> 00:51:54,210
That's a good name for us, isn't it?

1303
00:51:54,410 --> 00:51:56,550
We have been chosen because we're faithful.

1304
00:51:56,710 --> 00:51:58,770
So let us, by all means, be that

1305
00:51:58,770 --> 00:51:58,990
way.

1306
00:51:59,610 --> 00:52:01,390
He will have a name that no man

1307
00:52:02,190 --> 00:52:05,670
knows except Himself, Revelation 19 and 12.

1308
00:52:06,030 --> 00:52:08,350
And He had a name written that no

1309
00:52:08,350 --> 00:52:10,270
man knew but He Himself.

1310
00:52:10,770 --> 00:52:11,950
You say, what does that all mean?

1311
00:52:12,030 --> 00:52:12,490
I don't know.

1312
00:52:12,710 --> 00:52:13,910
When we get there, we'll find out.

1313
00:52:14,490 --> 00:52:16,590
And there needs to be some things to

1314
00:52:16,590 --> 00:52:17,070
know over there.

1315
00:52:17,110 --> 00:52:18,190
I don't know it all over here.

1316
00:52:18,830 --> 00:52:20,950
Know enough to get there and learn the

1317
00:52:20,950 --> 00:52:22,270
rest of it after you arrive.

1318
00:52:22,990 --> 00:52:23,550
Is that all right?

1319
00:52:24,290 --> 00:52:27,470
And never will there be a more glorious

1320
00:52:27,470 --> 00:52:30,430
event or a more beautiful sight than the

1321
00:52:30,430 --> 00:52:33,030
spectacle of the armies of heaven clothed in

1322
00:52:33,030 --> 00:52:36,270
spotless white and in perfect order and perfect

1323
00:52:36,270 --> 00:52:40,150
rank riding behind the Prince of princes, the

1324
00:52:40,150 --> 00:52:43,290
King of kings, the Lord of lords, our

1325
00:52:43,290 --> 00:52:44,810
Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

1326
00:52:45,250 --> 00:52:46,010
What a day.

1327
00:52:46,870 --> 00:52:47,550
What a future.

1328
00:52:48,230 --> 00:52:49,750
I believe it's worth living right for.

1329
00:52:50,790 --> 00:52:53,350
You know, sin is degrading.

1330
00:52:54,230 --> 00:52:57,930
A transgression is a regret, finally.

1331
00:52:58,610 --> 00:53:00,810
And when you live for God, the future

1332
00:53:00,810 --> 00:53:01,550
is bright.

1333
00:53:02,990 --> 00:53:04,290
You don't have regrets.

1334
00:53:05,010 --> 00:53:06,990
I've never seen a person, well, I'm just

1335
00:53:06,990 --> 00:53:08,390
sorry I live for God.

1336
00:53:09,490 --> 00:53:13,490
You know, everything you do with God, you

1337
00:53:13,490 --> 00:53:15,670
can always be happy about it in the

1338
00:53:15,670 --> 00:53:15,970
future.

1339
00:53:16,230 --> 00:53:17,630
You don't look back and say, hey, that

1340
00:53:17,630 --> 00:53:18,250
didn't work.

1341
00:53:18,710 --> 00:53:20,590
No, if you live for God, it's working.

1342
00:53:21,290 --> 00:53:23,370
And so what you and I are doing

1343
00:53:23,370 --> 00:53:26,250
today, when we look back upon it, we're

1344
00:53:26,250 --> 00:53:27,670
going to say that was the right thing,

1345
00:53:27,750 --> 00:53:29,530
the correct thing, the best thing to do,

1346
00:53:29,610 --> 00:53:32,750
and how glad we are that we did

1347
00:53:32,750 --> 00:53:32,970
it.

1348
00:53:33,110 --> 00:53:33,830
Let's walk with him.

1349
00:53:34,630 --> 00:53:36,690
The book of the revelation is a true

1350
00:53:36,690 --> 00:53:36,990
book.

1351
00:53:38,050 --> 00:53:39,010
Let's follow it.

1352
00:53:39,270 --> 00:53:40,850
Father, we thank you for these that learn.

1353
00:53:41,370 --> 00:53:42,350
There's some that don't learn.

1354
00:53:43,030 --> 00:53:44,270
We thank you for these that learn.

1355
00:53:44,430 --> 00:53:45,170
Bless them, we pray.

1356
00:53:45,310 --> 00:53:46,090
Keep them, we pray.

1357
00:53:46,470 --> 00:53:49,010
And let us all arrive at the great

1358
00:53:49,010 --> 00:53:51,210
throne of God, where we shall live together

1359
00:53:51,210 --> 00:53:53,310
with him forever and forever.

1360
00:53:53,750 --> 00:53:55,570
And all the people said, amen.

1361
00:53:55,690 --> 00:53:56,850
Give the Lord a good hand, everybody.

1362
00:54:00,820 --> 00:54:02,460
You've been listening to the From the Pulpit

1363
00:54:02,460 --> 00:54:03,660
and Classic Sermons series.

1364
00:54:04,260 --> 00:54:06,540

1365
00:54:06,540 --> 00:54:09,720
message on Demonology and Deliverance Part One, and

1366
00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:11,660
then a Prophecy and Rapture End Time Study.

1367
00:54:12,300 --> 00:54:13,980
Tune in next week to hear Parrish Reedhead
