1
00:00:03,430 --> 00:00:04,950
Welcome to From the Pulpit.

2
00:00:05,110 --> 00:00:06,730
Each week we bring you a different message

3
00:00:06,730 --> 00:00:08,490
from some of history's greatest speakers in the

4
00:00:08,490 --> 00:00:10,850
Christian faith and powerful sermons from modern preachers

5
00:00:10,850 --> 00:00:11,150
too.

6
00:00:11,430 --> 00:00:13,730
This week we have David Wilkerson with his

7
00:00:13,730 --> 00:00:15,370
message, The End Times Vision.

8
00:00:16,030 --> 00:00:23,210
Jesus, we desperately need your power and strength

9
00:00:23,210 --> 00:00:24,670
to do what you've asked me to do

10
00:00:24,670 --> 00:00:25,050
tonight.

11
00:00:25,050 --> 00:00:28,890
I ask, humbly now, to give me the

12
00:00:28,890 --> 00:00:31,729
courage and help me to say it from

13
00:00:31,729 --> 00:00:34,250
my heart without fear and trembling.

14
00:00:34,910 --> 00:00:36,530
In Christ's name, amen.

15
00:00:38,290 --> 00:00:42,630
God's placed me here tonight to warn of

16
00:00:42,630 --> 00:00:44,050
a coming hour of persecution.

17
00:00:45,330 --> 00:00:46,750
The Holy Spirit is my witness.

18
00:00:46,750 --> 00:00:50,530
This convention tonight is being warned here and

19
00:00:50,530 --> 00:00:53,770
now of an intense hour of persecution for

20
00:00:53,770 --> 00:00:55,170
all spirit-filled believers.

21
00:00:56,250 --> 00:01:00,890
You're to prepare to be hated, rejected, maligned,

22
00:01:00,970 --> 00:01:01,610
and ridiculed.

23
00:01:02,650 --> 00:01:05,130
Now, if you believe Acts 2.4 about

24
00:01:05,130 --> 00:01:06,950
a special endowment of power from on high,

25
00:01:07,030 --> 00:01:09,470
then you've got to also believe Acts 2

26
00:01:09,470 --> 00:01:12,730
.17. Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy

27
00:01:12,730 --> 00:01:15,170
and your young men shall see visions.

28
00:01:16,090 --> 00:01:19,050
I saw a vision this past April.

29
00:01:19,650 --> 00:01:21,710
So frightening, it staggered my mind.

30
00:01:22,690 --> 00:01:24,570
And for the past three months, I've tried

31
00:01:24,570 --> 00:01:26,410
to shake it off, but I can't do

32
00:01:26,410 --> 00:01:26,570
it.

33
00:01:26,770 --> 00:01:28,110
I've only had two in my life.

34
00:01:28,310 --> 00:01:30,530
The first, 15 years ago, took me to

35
00:01:30,530 --> 00:01:32,630
the streets of New York, and every factor

36
00:01:32,630 --> 00:01:33,830
of that vision has been fulfilled.

37
00:01:35,030 --> 00:01:37,510
I've been terribly afraid to share this vision

38
00:01:37,510 --> 00:01:40,330
up until tonight for fear I'd be called

39
00:01:40,330 --> 00:01:40,930
a fanatic.

40
00:01:40,930 --> 00:01:44,310
But the same Holy Ghost that prompted me

41
00:01:44,310 --> 00:01:46,810
12 years ago to share the story of

42
00:01:46,810 --> 00:01:50,270
the cross and switchblade has prompted me tonight

43
00:01:50,270 --> 00:01:51,690
to share this vision with you.

44
00:01:52,830 --> 00:01:56,330
In this vision, I saw five terrible calamities

45
00:01:56,330 --> 00:01:57,850
coming to America and the world.

46
00:01:59,050 --> 00:02:02,650
First of all, a worldwide recession caused by

47
00:02:02,650 --> 00:02:03,710
economic confusion.

48
00:02:04,390 --> 00:02:07,669
I saw in my vision at most a

49
00:02:07,669 --> 00:02:10,430
few more fat, flourishing years, and then an

50
00:02:10,430 --> 00:02:12,990
economic recession that's going to affect the lifestyle

51
00:02:12,990 --> 00:02:14,510
of every wage earner in the world.

52
00:02:15,310 --> 00:02:17,030
The world economists are going to be at

53
00:02:17,030 --> 00:02:18,690
loss to explain what's happening.

54
00:02:19,310 --> 00:02:21,450
It's going to start in Germany, spread to

55
00:02:21,450 --> 00:02:23,390
Japan, and finally to the United States.

56
00:02:24,030 --> 00:02:26,510
Large and trusted corporations are going to go

57
00:02:26,510 --> 00:02:26,930
bankrupt.

58
00:02:27,610 --> 00:02:29,570
Many churches are going to go into bankruptcy,

59
00:02:30,170 --> 00:02:32,870
and some missionary projects are going to flounder.

60
00:02:32,870 --> 00:02:35,630
And one of the clearest messages I've ever

61
00:02:35,630 --> 00:02:37,750
received from God in my life is this.

62
00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:40,530
Use the next few good years left to

63
00:02:40,530 --> 00:02:42,350
prepare for a financial crisis.

64
00:02:42,850 --> 00:02:45,110
Get your house in order because hard times

65
00:02:45,110 --> 00:02:45,570
are coming.

66
00:02:46,410 --> 00:02:50,850
Number two, I saw nature having labor pains.

67
00:02:51,870 --> 00:02:54,910
Supernatural signs and changes that can't be explained

68
00:02:54,910 --> 00:02:55,530
by men.

69
00:02:56,550 --> 00:02:59,590
Worldwide disasters that we're witnessing right now I

70
00:02:59,590 --> 00:03:01,850
see as labor pains in nature, which are

71
00:03:01,850 --> 00:03:03,830
going to become more and more frequent and

72
00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:05,610
more intense the closer we get to the

73
00:03:05,610 --> 00:03:06,890
birth of the kingdom of God.

74
00:03:07,270 --> 00:03:09,870
I saw major earthquakes coming to the United

75
00:03:09,870 --> 00:03:10,390
States.

76
00:03:11,130 --> 00:03:14,070
I saw worldwide famine, especially in China, India,

77
00:03:14,190 --> 00:03:14,530
and Russia.

78
00:03:15,250 --> 00:03:18,110
I saw the world's food supplies completely dwindled

79
00:03:18,110 --> 00:03:19,470
and millions starving.

80
00:03:20,190 --> 00:03:22,110
I saw coming a new kind of cosmic

81
00:03:22,110 --> 00:03:24,690
storm appearing as a raging fire in the

82
00:03:24,690 --> 00:03:27,490
sky, leaving a kind of vapor trail.

83
00:03:28,650 --> 00:03:31,230
Tornadoes, hailstorms, floods, and hurricanes are going to

84
00:03:31,230 --> 00:03:34,090
pound the earth with such intensity and violence

85
00:03:34,090 --> 00:03:36,130
that all of mankind is going to have

86
00:03:36,130 --> 00:03:38,630
to admit the world is under supernatural siege.

87
00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:43,190
Number three, a flood of filth and a

88
00:03:43,190 --> 00:03:44,690
baptism of dirt in America.

89
00:03:45,970 --> 00:03:48,550
I see the prophecy of Nahum coming to

90
00:03:48,550 --> 00:03:50,050
pass in the very near future.

91
00:03:50,710 --> 00:03:53,250
God said, I'll pour abominable filth upon you.

92
00:03:53,250 --> 00:03:56,390
This means triple X-rated movies on cable

93
00:03:56,390 --> 00:03:57,930
television after midnight.

94
00:03:58,590 --> 00:04:00,810
This means R-rated movies within the next

95
00:04:00,810 --> 00:04:02,490
few years on network television.

96
00:04:03,150 --> 00:04:04,930
This means our newsstands are going to be

97
00:04:04,930 --> 00:04:07,510
flooded with such filth that Playboy magazine will

98
00:04:07,510 --> 00:04:10,290
look like a puritanical piece of trash.

99
00:04:11,090 --> 00:04:13,630
It means sex education classes in school will

100
00:04:13,630 --> 00:04:18,110
be using animated cartoons and film dramatized sexual

101
00:04:18,110 --> 00:04:18,790
intercourse.

102
00:04:19,350 --> 00:04:21,210
And just when it appears there's going to

103
00:04:21,210 --> 00:04:24,210
be a successful campaign against smut, just when

104
00:04:24,210 --> 00:04:26,790
the Supreme Court seems to be ruling against

105
00:04:26,790 --> 00:04:29,110
pornographers, when it appears the nation is returning

106
00:04:29,110 --> 00:04:32,350
to old-fashioned moral standards, suddenly the floodgates

107
00:04:32,350 --> 00:04:34,790
are going to swing open and Satan is

108
00:04:34,790 --> 00:04:37,130
going to vomit filth out of hell and

109
00:04:37,130 --> 00:04:38,610
it'll be just as it was in the

110
00:04:38,610 --> 00:04:40,610
days of Lot and will vex the souls

111
00:04:40,610 --> 00:04:43,270
of God's most devout saints.

112
00:04:44,090 --> 00:04:47,670
Number four, rebellion in the home.

113
00:04:47,670 --> 00:04:50,670
I see the new number one youth problem

114
00:04:50,670 --> 00:04:53,450
in America and the world as hatred toward

115
00:04:53,450 --> 00:04:54,070
parents.

116
00:04:54,730 --> 00:04:57,510
Now, I'm reading this tonight for fear I've

117
00:04:57,510 --> 00:04:59,350
changed a single word of what I've seen

118
00:04:59,350 --> 00:05:01,050
and had to write down as the Holy

119
00:05:01,050 --> 00:05:02,370
Spirit laid on my heart.

120
00:05:03,630 --> 00:05:05,690
A man's worst enemies will be they of

121
00:05:05,690 --> 00:05:07,350
his own household, the Bible says.

122
00:05:08,170 --> 00:05:10,210
Children are going to turn against their parents

123
00:05:10,210 --> 00:05:10,930
with a passion.

124
00:05:11,690 --> 00:05:13,730
Parents are going to be betrayed and will

125
00:05:13,730 --> 00:05:15,610
die a thousand deaths at the hands of

126
00:05:15,610 --> 00:05:17,790
children who've learned to despise their hypocrisy.

127
00:05:18,550 --> 00:05:19,850
There are going to be millions of stay

128
00:05:19,850 --> 00:05:22,310
-at-home runaways who need not go away

129
00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:24,270
anymore and run away from home because their

130
00:05:24,270 --> 00:05:26,110
parents are going to give them what they

131
00:05:26,110 --> 00:05:28,090
choose and what they want as long as

132
00:05:28,090 --> 00:05:28,790
they stay home.

133
00:05:29,510 --> 00:05:31,430
Kids will not even be expected to communicate

134
00:05:31,430 --> 00:05:32,330
with their parents.

135
00:05:32,890 --> 00:05:34,430
They're going to live under the same roof

136
00:05:34,430 --> 00:05:36,230
but will be like enemies at war living

137
00:05:36,230 --> 00:05:37,030
under a truce.

138
00:05:38,410 --> 00:05:41,870
This is the clearest vision I've ever seen

139
00:05:41,870 --> 00:05:42,510
in my life.

140
00:05:42,510 --> 00:05:44,510
It's going to be bigger than drug addiction,

141
00:05:44,810 --> 00:05:48,230
bigger than sex abuse or alcohol or any

142
00:05:48,230 --> 00:05:49,110
other youth problem.

143
00:05:49,950 --> 00:05:52,370
And in a recent survey we did, 5

144
00:05:52,370 --> 00:05:55,530
,000 kids in 12 major cities, over 45

145
00:05:55,530 --> 00:05:58,390
% said, I hate my parents already.

146
00:06:00,010 --> 00:06:06,310
Number five, a persecution madness against truly spirit

147
00:06:06,310 --> 00:06:08,290
-filled Christians who love Jesus Christ.

148
00:06:08,970 --> 00:06:10,850
Now, I don't have time tonight to go

149
00:06:10,850 --> 00:06:14,650
into all the details of these four calamities

150
00:06:14,650 --> 00:06:15,630
I've just mentioned.

151
00:06:16,170 --> 00:06:19,170
However, the Holy Spirit has prompted me tonight

152
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:20,950
to go into detail and share with you

153
00:06:20,950 --> 00:06:22,450
what I see coming in the way of

154
00:06:22,450 --> 00:06:23,070
persecution.

155
00:06:24,530 --> 00:06:26,770
Now, it was Jesus himself who told us

156
00:06:26,770 --> 00:06:28,170
to tarry for a penny cost.

157
00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:31,450
Jesus himself told us the Holy Ghost would

158
00:06:31,450 --> 00:06:32,210
fall upon us.

159
00:06:33,010 --> 00:06:35,530
Jesus himself promised us power from on high.

160
00:06:35,530 --> 00:06:39,110
But it was also Jesus Christ himself who

161
00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:42,890
predicted persecution was coming for all true spirit

162
00:06:42,890 --> 00:06:44,330
-baptized believers.

163
00:06:44,590 --> 00:06:46,030
Jesus predicted it.

164
00:06:46,790 --> 00:06:50,130
John 15, 19, Jesus said, If you were

165
00:06:50,130 --> 00:06:51,610
of the world, the world would love his

166
00:06:51,610 --> 00:06:51,870
own.

167
00:06:52,450 --> 00:06:55,010
But because you're not of this world, and

168
00:06:55,010 --> 00:06:56,650
I've chosen you out of the world, therefore

169
00:06:56,650 --> 00:06:57,770
the world will hate you.

170
00:06:58,430 --> 00:07:00,230
Remember the word that I said to you,

171
00:07:00,710 --> 00:07:02,630
the servant is not greater than his Lord.

172
00:07:02,630 --> 00:07:05,310
If they have persecuted me, they will also

173
00:07:05,310 --> 00:07:06,410
persecute you.

174
00:07:06,790 --> 00:07:08,970
If they have kept my saying, they will

175
00:07:08,970 --> 00:07:09,890
keep yours also.

176
00:07:10,770 --> 00:07:11,770
Here is another one.

177
00:07:12,390 --> 00:07:14,230
The brother shall deliver up the brother to

178
00:07:14,230 --> 00:07:14,510
death.

179
00:07:15,010 --> 00:07:17,530
The father, the child, children will rise up

180
00:07:17,530 --> 00:07:19,170
against their parents and cause them to be

181
00:07:19,170 --> 00:07:19,850
put to death.

182
00:07:20,550 --> 00:07:22,090
He shall be hated of all men for

183
00:07:22,090 --> 00:07:22,950
my name's sake.

184
00:07:23,510 --> 00:07:24,890
But he that endures to the end shall

185
00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:25,470
be saved.

186
00:07:26,110 --> 00:07:28,130
But when they persecute you in this city,

187
00:07:28,630 --> 00:07:29,370
run to another.

188
00:07:29,370 --> 00:07:32,250
Because I tell you, you will not have

189
00:07:32,250 --> 00:07:33,970
gone over the cities of Israel till the

190
00:07:33,970 --> 00:07:35,010
Son of Man becomes.

191
00:07:35,510 --> 00:07:37,450
The disciple is not above his master, nor

192
00:07:37,450 --> 00:07:38,690
the servant above his Lord.

193
00:07:39,210 --> 00:07:41,130
It is enough for the disciple that he

194
00:07:41,130 --> 00:07:42,010
fears his master.

195
00:07:43,230 --> 00:07:46,090
Now the purpose of this coming persecution that

196
00:07:46,090 --> 00:07:48,710
I see in the spirit will be to

197
00:07:48,710 --> 00:07:51,530
separate and scatter the true believers from the

198
00:07:51,530 --> 00:07:51,790
false.

199
00:07:52,790 --> 00:07:55,290
Time is running out, and the gospel still

200
00:07:55,290 --> 00:07:56,990
has to be preached to all nations before

201
00:07:56,990 --> 00:07:57,750
Jesus comes.

202
00:07:58,350 --> 00:08:00,650
Now the Holy Ghost has been poured out

203
00:08:00,650 --> 00:08:02,230
upon thousands.

204
00:08:02,610 --> 00:08:05,090
But just as in the early Pentecostal outpouring,

205
00:08:05,650 --> 00:08:08,410
disciples still sit around singing and rejoicing and

206
00:08:08,410 --> 00:08:09,690
sharing only with each other.

207
00:08:10,610 --> 00:08:12,530
Among us are still those who talk in

208
00:08:12,530 --> 00:08:14,090
tongues and still live like the devil.

209
00:08:15,090 --> 00:08:16,490
But he is going to lay the axe

210
00:08:16,490 --> 00:08:17,030
to the root.

211
00:08:17,750 --> 00:08:19,330
He is going to separate the weak from

212
00:08:19,330 --> 00:08:19,850
the trapped.

213
00:08:20,370 --> 00:08:21,890
He is going to scatter his seed to

214
00:08:21,890 --> 00:08:23,070
the far corners of the earth.

215
00:08:23,550 --> 00:08:26,030
And God's word will be fulfilled.

216
00:08:26,030 --> 00:08:31,150
2 Timothy 3.12 All that will live

217
00:08:31,150 --> 00:08:34,669
godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

218
00:08:36,510 --> 00:08:38,490
You quote this scripture, they shall be filled

219
00:08:38,490 --> 00:08:39,190
with the Holy Ghost.

220
00:08:39,330 --> 00:08:40,429
They shall speak with tongues.

221
00:08:40,909 --> 00:08:42,150
Go all the way if you are going

222
00:08:42,150 --> 00:08:43,470
to be a charismatic Christian.

223
00:08:43,870 --> 00:08:44,590
Read it all.

224
00:08:44,750 --> 00:08:45,350
Accept it.

225
00:08:45,790 --> 00:08:49,230
All, all, all, A-double-L-L All

226
00:08:49,230 --> 00:08:51,270
that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall

227
00:08:51,270 --> 00:08:52,250
suffer persecution.

228
00:08:53,950 --> 00:08:55,650
Now let me share with you what the

229
00:08:55,650 --> 00:08:57,670
Holy Spirit has revealed to me in vision

230
00:08:57,670 --> 00:08:59,050
concerning this persecution.

231
00:08:59,510 --> 00:09:01,830
Number one, it's going to come as a

232
00:09:01,830 --> 00:09:03,630
persecution madness on the earth.

233
00:09:04,850 --> 00:09:07,490
I see now persecution coming such as mankind

234
00:09:07,490 --> 00:09:08,750
has never before witnessed.

235
00:09:09,710 --> 00:09:11,810
This will be a persecution of true Jesus

236
00:09:11,810 --> 00:09:15,370
believers, and it's going to rise like a

237
00:09:15,370 --> 00:09:17,130
many-headed monster out of the sea.

238
00:09:17,130 --> 00:09:21,370
It will start slowly, subtly, coming at a

239
00:09:21,370 --> 00:09:23,310
time when religious freedom appears to be at

240
00:09:23,310 --> 00:09:23,650
a peak.

241
00:09:24,190 --> 00:09:25,570
But it's going to spread to the United

242
00:09:25,570 --> 00:09:28,110
States, Canada, the entire world, and finally become

243
00:09:28,110 --> 00:09:28,950
a kind of madness.

244
00:09:29,790 --> 00:09:31,710
That madness is already upon us.

245
00:09:32,470 --> 00:09:34,610
The antichrist spirit is entering the hearts of

246
00:09:34,610 --> 00:09:36,270
certain men in high places already.

247
00:09:36,970 --> 00:09:40,090
Government in the judicial system, and it's led

248
00:09:40,090 --> 00:09:42,130
to a spiritual wickedness in high places.

249
00:09:42,130 --> 00:09:46,010
And this spiritual wickedness in high places will

250
00:09:46,010 --> 00:09:50,130
eventually and soon lead to an harassment, not

251
00:09:50,130 --> 00:09:54,090
only of officials, but those in churches, missionaries,

252
00:09:54,270 --> 00:09:55,050
and ministers.

253
00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:58,230
There's already evidence of this harassment.

254
00:09:59,310 --> 00:10:01,150
I see a time coming when nearly all

255
00:10:01,150 --> 00:10:05,650
evangelical missionary projects, all religious radio and television

256
00:10:05,650 --> 00:10:09,670
programming, all incorporated missionary societies are going to

257
00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:11,150
be so closely monitored.

258
00:10:11,890 --> 00:10:15,570
Questioned and badgered by government agencies, they'll be

259
00:10:15,570 --> 00:10:18,430
cautious and worried about moving or expanding in

260
00:10:18,430 --> 00:10:19,030
any direction.

261
00:10:20,150 --> 00:10:23,410
Number two, I see rising a super-world

262
00:10:23,410 --> 00:10:23,830
church.

263
00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:27,450
I see the formation of a super-world

264
00:10:27,450 --> 00:10:31,090
church council consisting of a union between liberal

265
00:10:31,090 --> 00:10:35,870
ecumenical Protestants and the Roman Catholic Church, joining

266
00:10:35,870 --> 00:10:37,750
politically hand-in-hand to create one of

267
00:10:37,750 --> 00:10:39,830
the most powerful religious forces on earth.

268
00:10:39,830 --> 00:10:42,550
And this union is going to start as

269
00:10:42,550 --> 00:10:45,530
a cooperative charity program, and it will end

270
00:10:45,530 --> 00:10:46,550
in a political union.

271
00:10:47,190 --> 00:10:50,630
This visible super-world church is going to

272
00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:53,890
be spiritual in name only, freely using the

273
00:10:53,890 --> 00:10:56,530
name of Jesus Christ, but will in fact

274
00:10:56,530 --> 00:10:59,130
be antichrist and political in many of its

275
00:10:59,130 --> 00:10:59,590
activities.

276
00:11:00,470 --> 00:11:03,190
This powerful church union will be deeply involved

277
00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:06,710
in social action, tremendous charity programs, and ministries

278
00:11:06,710 --> 00:11:07,450
of compassion.

279
00:11:07,450 --> 00:11:10,510
Its leaders will make statements about meeting human

280
00:11:10,510 --> 00:11:10,930
needs.

281
00:11:11,470 --> 00:11:13,390
They'll send out a call for social action,

282
00:11:13,510 --> 00:11:16,490
political intervention, and a greater voice in world

283
00:11:16,490 --> 00:11:16,950
affairs.

284
00:11:18,250 --> 00:11:21,450
There's going to be, fourthly, a sudden mysterious

285
00:11:21,450 --> 00:11:22,430
chain of events.

286
00:11:23,410 --> 00:11:25,830
Just when it appears the ecumenical movement is

287
00:11:25,830 --> 00:11:29,190
nearly dead, a rather mysterious chain of events

288
00:11:29,190 --> 00:11:31,350
will bring about the framework for this union.

289
00:11:32,130 --> 00:11:34,170
Rome is going to insist upon and receive

290
00:11:34,170 --> 00:11:36,590
concessions from the Protestant ecumenical leaders.

291
00:11:36,590 --> 00:11:39,230
The Pope will be considered more of a

292
00:11:39,230 --> 00:11:41,410
political rather than a spiritual leader of this

293
00:11:41,410 --> 00:11:42,050
church union.

294
00:11:43,170 --> 00:11:45,290
Protestant leaders of the ecumenical movement are going

295
00:11:45,290 --> 00:11:47,690
to insist upon and receive concessions from Rome.

296
00:11:49,230 --> 00:11:51,230
Protestants will not be asked to consider the

297
00:11:51,230 --> 00:11:52,910
Holy Father as the infallible head of the

298
00:11:52,910 --> 00:11:53,250
church.

299
00:11:53,770 --> 00:11:56,510
They accept his political leadership without accepting his

300
00:11:56,510 --> 00:11:57,630
role as Peter's successor.

301
00:11:58,690 --> 00:12:01,210
I'm not suggesting that the Pope or any

302
00:12:01,210 --> 00:12:03,290
of these church leaders involved in this super

303
00:12:03,290 --> 00:12:06,470
-church will be engaging in anti-Christ activity.

304
00:12:06,990 --> 00:12:09,290
The Bible talks about something about that line,

305
00:12:09,370 --> 00:12:10,690
but I can't get into it now.

306
00:12:11,350 --> 00:12:14,730
The Bible, as far as I'm concerned, I

307
00:12:14,730 --> 00:12:17,230
see something that frightens me at the very

308
00:12:17,230 --> 00:12:18,230
core of my soul.

309
00:12:18,910 --> 00:12:21,610
I see an army of queer people invading

310
00:12:21,610 --> 00:12:24,470
the most influential post in this super-church.

311
00:12:24,930 --> 00:12:27,830
They're going to be ungodly anti-Christ people,

312
00:12:27,830 --> 00:12:31,050
obsessed with the idea that this super-church

313
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:34,350
must become a big political power, strong enough

314
00:12:34,350 --> 00:12:36,630
to defeat anybody who opposes its actions.

315
00:12:37,330 --> 00:12:39,410
And while those that are in leadership are

316
00:12:39,410 --> 00:12:42,650
speaking about miracles and love and reconciliation, these

317
00:12:42,650 --> 00:12:44,690
hirelings who work under them are going to

318
00:12:44,690 --> 00:12:48,770
be harassing and persecuting every religious organization that

319
00:12:48,770 --> 00:12:50,130
does not come under their leadership.

320
00:12:51,770 --> 00:12:54,390
Most of the domestic groups that we have

321
00:12:54,390 --> 00:12:57,070
to pay attention to here are white supremacist

322
00:12:57,070 --> 00:12:57,310
groups.

323
00:12:57,310 --> 00:13:01,530
They're anti-government, in most cases anti-abortion.

324
00:13:02,170 --> 00:13:06,430
They are usually survivalist type in nature, identity

325
00:13:06,430 --> 00:13:07,050
-oriented.

326
00:13:07,710 --> 00:13:10,650
If you recall, Buford Furrow came to Los

327
00:13:10,650 --> 00:13:15,130
Angeles in, I believe it was 1999, when

328
00:13:15,130 --> 00:13:19,490
he went to three different Jewish institutions, museums,

329
00:13:19,790 --> 00:13:22,130
and then wound up shooting people at a

330
00:13:22,130 --> 00:13:26,670
children's community center and then shooting a Filipino

331
00:13:26,670 --> 00:13:28,310
postal worker later on.

332
00:13:28,790 --> 00:13:32,250
Matthew Hale, who's the Pontifus Maximus of the

333
00:13:32,250 --> 00:13:33,890
World Church of the Creator out of Illinois,

334
00:13:34,490 --> 00:13:36,310
and Ben Smith, who went on a shooting

335
00:13:36,310 --> 00:13:39,230
spree in three different cities where he killed

336
00:13:39,230 --> 00:13:42,810
a number of African Americans and Jews and

337
00:13:42,810 --> 00:13:44,410
Asians that day.

338
00:13:44,870 --> 00:13:48,550
Those groups are groups that claim to be

339
00:13:48,550 --> 00:13:54,250
extremely anti-government and Christian identity-oriented.

340
00:13:55,690 --> 00:13:57,990
Fourthly, I see homosexuals and lesbians.

341
00:13:58,870 --> 00:14:00,870
Welcome to the super church union.

342
00:14:01,750 --> 00:14:04,150
I see this super world church in the

343
00:14:04,150 --> 00:14:08,350
guise of understanding, accepting homosexuals and lesbians into

344
00:14:08,350 --> 00:14:08,890
its fellowship.

345
00:14:10,930 --> 00:14:13,830
Homosexuals, homosexual and lesbian love will be vindicated

346
00:14:13,830 --> 00:14:15,610
by the leadership of this church union.

347
00:14:16,590 --> 00:14:18,710
Homosexuals will not only be welcome, but they'll

348
00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:20,870
be encouraged to continue in their practices.

349
00:14:22,210 --> 00:14:25,570
Homosexual and lesbian ministers will not only be

350
00:14:25,570 --> 00:14:29,250
ordained and given places of authority, they'll be

351
00:14:29,250 --> 00:14:32,870
heralded as a new breed of pioneer evangelists,

352
00:14:33,570 --> 00:14:36,150
introducing new concepts of love and evangelism.

353
00:14:37,210 --> 00:14:39,550
I see in nearly every major city in

354
00:14:39,550 --> 00:14:41,710
the United States and around the world, homosexual

355
00:14:41,710 --> 00:14:45,630
churches catering exclusively to the spiritual needs of

356
00:14:45,630 --> 00:14:48,830
their own kind, with full recognition from organized

357
00:14:48,830 --> 00:14:49,370
religion.

358
00:14:49,370 --> 00:14:53,210
Their Sunday school and church literature distributed to

359
00:14:53,210 --> 00:14:57,170
their children will suggest to teenagers that homosexuality

360
00:14:57,170 --> 00:15:00,050
is a normal and acceptable form of Christian

361
00:15:00,050 --> 00:15:00,610
practice.

362
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,220
New dancing in the church, new dancing in

363
00:15:07,220 --> 00:15:09,400
some of these member churches will be excused

364
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:10,860
as an artistic form of worship.

365
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,480
Men are going to become worshipers of the

366
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,700
creature more than the creator.

367
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,300
And God will be forced to give these

368
00:15:18,300 --> 00:15:20,460
kind of worshipers over to their sins, and

369
00:15:20,460 --> 00:15:22,720
as a result, many will be given over

370
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,220
to repudiate minds, creating a new form of

371
00:15:25,220 --> 00:15:27,640
mental illness that will not respond to any

372
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:28,420
kind of treatment.

373
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,820
Now, God will not let that go unanswered.

374
00:15:32,260 --> 00:15:34,620
And although new dancing will not become widespread,

375
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:37,280
it's going to be accepted by many church

376
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,100
leaders in the future as a legitimate expression

377
00:15:40,100 --> 00:15:40,720
of worship.

378
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,000
Next, occult practices within this church.

379
00:15:46,860 --> 00:15:50,540
I believe this super-world church will condone

380
00:15:50,540 --> 00:15:51,840
certain occult practices.

381
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,680
They'll set up study committees to defang the

382
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,200
devil, to remake his image into one of

383
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,180
a non-entity, bland, someone not to be

384
00:16:01,180 --> 00:16:01,560
feared.

385
00:16:02,740 --> 00:16:04,940
Now, in some of the most respected, wealthy

386
00:16:04,940 --> 00:16:08,740
churches in America, seances will replace prayer meetings,

387
00:16:08,820 --> 00:16:10,200
and that's already happening.

388
00:16:11,580 --> 00:16:13,380
More and more ministers are going to be

389
00:16:13,380 --> 00:16:16,020
intrigued by the supernatural claims of the spiritualist

390
00:16:16,020 --> 00:16:17,040
and Satanist groups.

391
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,260
And I see the day coming when certain

392
00:16:20,260 --> 00:16:22,480
ministers who've never been too close to Jesus

393
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,040
will get very close to the devil.

394
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,120
Satan's going to appear as an angel of

395
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,680
light to deceive everyone, possibly the elected chosen

396
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:30,220
of God.

397
00:16:31,180 --> 00:16:33,460
Satan's own ministers will appear as these angels,

398
00:16:33,660 --> 00:16:35,440
and they'll try to spread the message within

399
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,160
the church that the enemy, Satan, is not

400
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:38,800
to be feared.

401
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,860
The super-church will never officially accept occult

402
00:16:43,860 --> 00:16:49,060
practices outright, but chronology, palmistry, fortune-telling, and

403
00:16:49,060 --> 00:16:51,800
horoscopes will be widely respected and accepted.

404
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,420
Now, listen closely.

405
00:16:55,860 --> 00:16:59,160
Next, I see the rise of another super

406
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:04,940
-church, a supernatural, invisible church, a union of

407
00:17:04,940 --> 00:17:08,500
deeply spiritual followers of Jesus Christ, bound together

408
00:17:08,500 --> 00:17:10,940
through the Holy Spirit, mutual confidence in Christ

409
00:17:10,940 --> 00:17:11,579
and His Word.

410
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,660
This supernatural church of two believers will become

411
00:17:15,660 --> 00:17:18,579
a kind of underground church and will include

412
00:17:18,579 --> 00:17:21,880
Catholics and Protestants of all denominations, young and

413
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,640
old, black and white, and people of all

414
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:24,020
nations.

415
00:17:25,079 --> 00:17:27,440
And while this visible, super-world church gains

416
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,580
political power, this invisible body of believers will

417
00:17:31,580 --> 00:17:33,640
grow tremendously in spiritual power.

418
00:17:34,380 --> 00:17:36,620
This power will come from persecution.

419
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,200
The persecution madness that's coming upon this earth

420
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,040
will drive these Christians closer together and closer

421
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,060
to Jesus Christ.

422
00:17:44,660 --> 00:17:47,340
There will be less concern about denominational ties

423
00:17:47,340 --> 00:17:49,940
and more concern and emphasis on the coming

424
00:17:49,940 --> 00:17:50,940
of Jesus Christ.

425
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,400
The Holy Spirit will bring together in one

426
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,400
all people of all faiths and walks of

427
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:55,700
life.

428
00:17:55,700 --> 00:17:59,380
And although this supernatural church already exists around

429
00:17:59,380 --> 00:18:02,840
the world, in the days coming soon, it

430
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,840
will become politically almost invisible.

431
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,660
It will not speak out much on social

432
00:18:07,660 --> 00:18:11,660
issues, but as persecution becomes more intense, this

433
00:18:11,660 --> 00:18:14,840
body of two believers will become almost radical

434
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,580
in its evangelistic efforts, and this invisible church

435
00:18:18,580 --> 00:18:21,800
will receive supernatural unction and Holy Ghost power

436
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,260
to preach the gospel to the four corners

437
00:18:24,260 --> 00:18:24,760
of the earth.

438
00:18:26,620 --> 00:18:30,300
Next, persecution for charismatic Catholics.

439
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,940
This makes me tumble, and I've fought with

440
00:18:34,940 --> 00:18:36,680
the Lord for three weeks now saying, I

441
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,160
can't say it, the Lord said you say

442
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:39,440
it.

443
00:18:40,860 --> 00:18:44,340
Charismatic Catholics who consider themselves members of the

444
00:18:44,340 --> 00:18:48,100
invisible supernatural church of Jesus Christ face the

445
00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:50,380
most grievous hour of persecution of all.

446
00:18:50,380 --> 00:18:54,500
The Roman Catholic Church, I predict in the

447
00:18:54,500 --> 00:18:57,360
spirit, is about to pull in the welcome

448
00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:00,120
mat for all Catholics who speak with tongues

449
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:03,140
and who lean toward the Pentecostal teachings concerning

450
00:19:03,140 --> 00:19:03,800
the Holy Spirit.

451
00:19:04,660 --> 00:19:07,180
High-level political pressure will be placed on

452
00:19:07,180 --> 00:19:09,280
priests and local level to put the fire

453
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:09,600
out.

454
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:12,720
Watch for the Pope to take a negative

455
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,100
stand against the charismatic movement within the Catholic

456
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:15,520
Church.

457
00:19:16,120 --> 00:19:17,500
The honeymoon is about over.

458
00:19:17,500 --> 00:19:20,600
Catholic magazines will soon begin to speak out

459
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,580
against the movement within its ranks and call

460
00:19:22,580 --> 00:19:23,240
for a purging.

461
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,260
It will begin as a very slow trend,

462
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,660
but will gather quick momentum until all Catholics

463
00:19:29,660 --> 00:19:32,980
in this movement will eventually face real persecution

464
00:19:32,980 --> 00:19:34,520
from within their own church.

465
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,600
The charismatic movement within the Catholic Church will

466
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,980
become so powerful and widespread it will appear

467
00:19:41,980 --> 00:19:43,700
to some leaders as a threat to those

468
00:19:43,700 --> 00:19:45,240
who don't understand what it means.

469
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,580
I see more than 500,000 involved in

470
00:19:48,580 --> 00:19:51,600
the Catholic charismatic movement within a short time.

471
00:19:52,540 --> 00:19:54,760
And those not in the movement will accuse

472
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,760
it of lacking social concern and being too

473
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,540
oblivious to the traditions of the church.

474
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,160
They'll be accused of turning away from the

475
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,020
Virgin Mary and negating the authority of the

476
00:20:05,020 --> 00:20:08,900
Pope and that every charismatic Catholic who boasts

477
00:20:08,900 --> 00:20:12,520
about a baptism of the Holy Ghost prepare

478
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:13,800
for persecution.

479
00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:17,320
It's not going to happen overnight, but most

480
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,700
certainly the day is coming when every single

481
00:20:20,700 --> 00:20:24,500
Catholic who's experienced a spiritual awakening will have

482
00:20:24,500 --> 00:20:26,380
to understand where his loyalties are.

483
00:20:27,300 --> 00:20:29,300
Some will be forced to return to tradition

484
00:20:29,300 --> 00:20:30,820
and allow the experience to be frozen.

485
00:20:31,700 --> 00:20:34,720
Many others, however, will soon discover that they

486
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,020
have more Christian love, fellowship, and spiritual rapport

487
00:20:38,020 --> 00:20:42,400
with other spiritual Protestants and Catholics who have

488
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,640
now centered their lives around the person of

489
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,000
Jesus Christ, the fullness of the Holy Ghost,

490
00:20:47,140 --> 00:20:48,040
and his soon return.

491
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,880
Many will not believe me, but I see

492
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,660
the day when Catholics, Lutherans, and many others

493
00:20:55,660 --> 00:20:58,500
of all denominations are going to have to

494
00:20:58,500 --> 00:20:59,860
come out from among them.

495
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,180
These new Christians will not call themselves Protestant

496
00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:06,000
or Catholic, but simply renewed Christians.

497
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,540
Their fellowship will not be based

498
00:21:08,540 --> 00:21:25,040
on

499
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,920
the experience of speaking with tongues, but will

500
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:29,920
be centered on the Father and his Son,

501
00:21:30,060 --> 00:21:30,800
Jesus Christ.

502
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,020
That is our fellowship.

503
00:21:43,020 --> 00:21:46,460
Number nine, I see a persecution through a

504
00:21:46,460 --> 00:21:47,160
media struggle.

505
00:21:48,020 --> 00:21:50,340
There is at present tremendous freedom for preaching

506
00:21:50,340 --> 00:21:51,900
the gospel on radio and television.

507
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,360
Never have the doors been more open to

508
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:57,220
minister Christ in the media.

509
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,860
Christians even own and operate their own radio

510
00:21:59,860 --> 00:22:00,900
and TV stations.

511
00:22:01,420 --> 00:22:03,020
They're at liberty to pray for the sick,

512
00:22:03,260 --> 00:22:04,800
raise money, and promote the gospel in any

513
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:05,540
way they see fit.

514
00:22:05,540 --> 00:22:06,420
But watch out.

515
00:22:07,540 --> 00:22:09,820
Persecution and harassment is already beginning.

516
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,000
There's a sound of change in the air.

517
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,180
Christ-centered radio and TV programming will become

518
00:22:15,180 --> 00:22:18,220
the target of satanic forces determined to force

519
00:22:18,220 --> 00:22:20,120
every one of them off the airwaves.

520
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,080
Already there's a behind-the-scenes movement to

521
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,100
establish a kind of rating system for all

522
00:22:26,100 --> 00:22:27,960
religious radio and TV programming.

523
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,620
And the liberal leaders of this super-church

524
00:22:30,620 --> 00:22:33,700
council will soon attempt to establish a kind

525
00:22:33,700 --> 00:22:36,340
of screening board and force themselves on the

526
00:22:36,340 --> 00:22:39,740
FCC as the final authority on all paid

527
00:22:39,740 --> 00:22:41,380
and sustaining religion on the media.

528
00:22:41,940 --> 00:22:44,180
They want no program to be aired without

529
00:22:44,180 --> 00:22:44,940
their approval.

530
00:22:46,060 --> 00:22:47,920
The doors that are now wide open are

531
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,720
slowly but surely going to close.

532
00:22:50,580 --> 00:22:53,120
Christian radio and TV stations should begin to

533
00:22:53,120 --> 00:22:54,720
expect persecution and harassment.

534
00:22:55,740 --> 00:22:58,140
Atheistic and anti-Christ forces are even now

535
00:22:58,140 --> 00:23:01,080
preparing litigation against certain religious stations.

536
00:23:01,660 --> 00:23:03,680
And I see Satan trying to bog down

537
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,120
these programs and stations and red tape legal

538
00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:08,840
proceedings and tax problems.

539
00:23:09,620 --> 00:23:11,380
And Satan will use every tactic at his

540
00:23:11,380 --> 00:23:14,440
disposal to remove all Christ-centered programs from

541
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:14,840
the media.

542
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,400
And the message I have for all of

543
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,520
you who minister in the media is this,

544
00:23:19,580 --> 00:23:20,420
from the Holy Spirit.

545
00:23:20,420 --> 00:23:23,980
Work while it is yet day, for the

546
00:23:23,980 --> 00:23:26,200
night cometh when no man can work.

547
00:23:26,340 --> 00:23:27,700
And that's a message for the media.

548
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,620
Persecution from Hollywood.

549
00:23:33,220 --> 00:23:36,020
Watch for Hollywood to step up its attack

550
00:23:36,020 --> 00:23:39,280
against true religion with more expose-type films.

551
00:23:39,980 --> 00:23:43,140
The film Marjo was the most brazen attempt

552
00:23:43,140 --> 00:23:45,560
by the devil to put down and ridicule

553
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,280
all religion having to do with the blood

554
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:48,080
of Jesus Christ.

555
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,160
Never in American history was it done before.

556
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,780
Revivalists and evangelical ministers are going to be

557
00:23:54,780 --> 00:23:59,360
stereotyped as Elmer Gantry, charlatans, geeks, money-mad

558
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:00,100
comedians.

559
00:24:01,340 --> 00:24:03,000
More and more movie makers are going to

560
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,640
attempt to debunk our morals.

561
00:24:05,420 --> 00:24:07,720
Gospel-preaching churches and ministers are going to

562
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,140
come under special attack while at the same

563
00:24:10,140 --> 00:24:13,260
time the occult and witchcraft will be glorified

564
00:24:13,260 --> 00:24:14,460
and sensationalized.

565
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,860
Next, persecution from television comedies.

566
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,900
TV comedy shows, the Holy Spirit has told

567
00:24:22,900 --> 00:24:26,120
me, will become bolder and bolder and will

568
00:24:26,120 --> 00:24:28,200
poke fun at Christ and all true Christians.

569
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:31,360
Comedy writers are going to strike out blow

570
00:24:31,360 --> 00:24:34,580
after blow designed to put down sacred traditions.

571
00:24:35,380 --> 00:24:37,580
And eventually these shows will be punctuated with

572
00:24:37,580 --> 00:24:39,680
four-letter words and anything will go on

573
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:40,220
television.

574
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:46,300
Television programmers will become absolutely blasphemous and millions

575
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:48,360
and millions of unbelievers will sit in front

576
00:24:48,360 --> 00:24:51,300
of their TV sets laughing and mocking as

577
00:24:51,300 --> 00:24:54,700
subjects once considered sacred are undermined and mocked

578
00:24:54,700 --> 00:24:55,520
and ridiculed.

579
00:24:56,100 --> 00:24:57,800
And last night on the Today show it

580
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,200
was brought home so vividly as Impressionist David

581
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,280
Price maliciously mocked Billy Graham as a money

582
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,580
raiser and a money grabber.

583
00:25:06,780 --> 00:25:08,740
Made my blood boil.

584
00:25:08,740 --> 00:25:13,000
Marjo sat there knocking on Robertson's Billy Graham

585
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,200
and it came home to me so hard.

586
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,280
David, this is just the beginning.

587
00:25:18,060 --> 00:25:23,540
Talk shows everywhere, movies, theaters, debunking Christ in

588
00:25:23,540 --> 00:25:25,820
his blood and glorifying the devil.

589
00:25:28,750 --> 00:25:32,130
Next, persecution through taxation of churches.

590
00:25:32,850 --> 00:25:34,030
Can you listen to me?

591
00:25:35,110 --> 00:25:38,090
There's coming attempts to tax churches and church

592
00:25:38,090 --> 00:25:39,190
-related organizations.

593
00:25:40,310 --> 00:25:42,790
These atheistic forces with the help of the

594
00:25:42,790 --> 00:25:45,270
Civil Liberties Union are going to push this

595
00:25:45,270 --> 00:25:46,610
matter to the Supreme Court.

596
00:25:47,730 --> 00:25:49,630
They're going to have a temporary setback but

597
00:25:49,630 --> 00:25:51,190
it's not going to stop them from pressing

598
00:25:51,190 --> 00:25:52,450
for congressional action.

599
00:25:53,310 --> 00:25:55,090
And a legal setback in the courts will

600
00:25:55,090 --> 00:25:55,930
not stop it.

601
00:25:56,630 --> 00:25:59,250
In spite of court decisions, we are eventually

602
00:25:59,250 --> 00:26:01,410
going to have taxation of our churches.

603
00:26:02,010 --> 00:26:05,050
I see it coming as an insignificant, very

604
00:26:05,050 --> 00:26:07,930
small kind of property tax but it's still

605
00:26:07,930 --> 00:26:11,230
going to burgeon into a monster-sized tax

606
00:26:11,230 --> 00:26:14,010
that will push some independent churches and missionary

607
00:26:14,010 --> 00:26:16,110
societies to the brink of bankruptcy.

608
00:26:16,890 --> 00:26:23,890
The IRS, Internal Revenue Service, one day I

609
00:26:23,890 --> 00:26:26,690
see becoming one of the most powerful weapons

610
00:26:26,690 --> 00:26:28,790
against the Church of Jesus Christ.

611
00:26:30,090 --> 00:26:32,970
It would then be possible for government agencies

612
00:26:32,970 --> 00:26:36,450
to maintain a stranglehold on churches and government

613
00:26:36,450 --> 00:26:40,270
agencies even now are delving into the private

614
00:26:40,270 --> 00:26:43,710
books of almost every non-profit religious organization

615
00:26:43,710 --> 00:26:46,050
in America, including ours right now.

616
00:26:47,390 --> 00:26:49,730
Every color there's going to be political harassment,

617
00:26:49,910 --> 00:26:52,610
red tape, acute financial problems.

618
00:26:53,270 --> 00:26:54,670
Federal and state aid is going to come

619
00:26:54,670 --> 00:26:56,370
with more and more strings attached to it.

620
00:26:57,130 --> 00:27:02,870
Secondly, an almost unexplainable student mood, apathy, unrest,

621
00:27:03,030 --> 00:27:04,370
and disrespect for leadership.

622
00:27:05,250 --> 00:27:09,110
Thirdly, you can expect the faculty to be

623
00:27:09,110 --> 00:27:13,270
infiltrated by teachers and professors who have become

624
00:27:13,270 --> 00:27:15,550
the unwitting tools in the hands of Satan

625
00:27:15,550 --> 00:27:18,510
to undermine the foundations of faith and leadership.

626
00:27:19,510 --> 00:27:21,990
Satan is going to attempt to wrest the

627
00:27:21,990 --> 00:27:24,990
leadership of these schools and institutions out of

628
00:27:24,990 --> 00:27:27,050
the hands of true men of God and

629
00:27:27,050 --> 00:27:29,390
place them in the hands of compromising liberals

630
00:27:29,390 --> 00:27:32,050
who will not attempt to check the movement

631
00:27:32,050 --> 00:27:33,330
toward agnosticism.

632
00:27:34,710 --> 00:27:39,190
The leadership of Christian educational institutions has better

633
00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:43,490
prepared themselves for difficult times financially and spiritually.

634
00:27:45,170 --> 00:27:50,490
Next, the Jesus revolution is going to grow

635
00:27:50,490 --> 00:27:51,310
power.

636
00:27:52,770 --> 00:27:57,250
The Jesus revolution will become a Jesus revolution

637
00:27:57,250 --> 00:27:58,230
movement.

638
00:27:58,230 --> 00:28:00,290
Oh, hear me.

639
00:28:01,610 --> 00:28:04,270
My friends, I have never in my life

640
00:28:04,270 --> 00:28:09,030
ministered with more of the unction of the

641
00:28:09,030 --> 00:28:09,650
Holy Spirit.

642
00:28:10,290 --> 00:28:13,150
I've never felt more divinely called to speak

643
00:28:13,150 --> 00:28:16,030
His word than I do here and now.

644
00:28:17,270 --> 00:28:19,350
In the spirit of God upon me and

645
00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:23,050
I prophesy now and hear it.

646
00:28:23,750 --> 00:28:27,990
The Jesus revolution among young people will stagnate

647
00:28:27,990 --> 00:28:31,110
and undisciplined followers are going to return to

648
00:28:31,110 --> 00:28:33,110
their drugs, their free sex, and their old

649
00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:33,810
ways of life.

650
00:28:35,210 --> 00:28:38,050
Persecution is coming to separate the sheep from

651
00:28:38,050 --> 00:28:43,570
the goats and only totally surrendered disciples will

652
00:28:43,570 --> 00:28:45,910
be left standing when the fall clears.

653
00:28:47,390 --> 00:28:49,930
The time is soon coming when it will

654
00:28:49,930 --> 00:28:51,650
no longer be popular to be a Jesus

655
00:28:51,650 --> 00:28:54,470
person The Jesus songs will not be on

656
00:28:54,470 --> 00:28:55,150
the hip parade.

657
00:28:55,830 --> 00:28:57,410
His name will no longer be a commercial

658
00:28:57,410 --> 00:28:59,010
asset to Broadway or Hollywood.

659
00:28:59,750 --> 00:29:01,590
The world that once used the name of

660
00:29:01,590 --> 00:29:04,530
Jesus so promiscuously is going to turn on

661
00:29:04,530 --> 00:29:05,510
Him and put Him down.

662
00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:10,050
I see a replay of the first recorded

663
00:29:10,050 --> 00:29:11,370
Jesus movement in history.

664
00:29:12,230 --> 00:29:14,590
Remember when Jesus came riding into Jerusalem on

665
00:29:14,590 --> 00:29:17,390
a donkey to the Horaas and the Hosannas

666
00:29:17,390 --> 00:29:19,690
and the praises of thousands that were caught

667
00:29:19,690 --> 00:29:20,850
up in this Jesus movement?

668
00:29:21,850 --> 00:29:25,330
Young people ripped branches from palm trees and

669
00:29:25,330 --> 00:29:27,190
spread their jackets on the ground so little

670
00:29:27,190 --> 00:29:28,330
donkey could walk over.

671
00:29:29,370 --> 00:29:33,170
They cried, Jesus, Jesus, Hosanna, our King is

672
00:29:33,170 --> 00:29:33,510
coming.

673
00:29:35,410 --> 00:29:37,930
But that first Jesus movement soon went sour.

674
00:29:39,030 --> 00:29:41,350
A very short time later that same Jesus

675
00:29:41,350 --> 00:29:44,530
stood before that same angry crowd and now

676
00:29:44,530 --> 00:29:47,630
they were screaming, crucify Him, away with Him.

677
00:29:47,630 --> 00:29:49,990
And the same crowd turned against Him.

678
00:29:51,070 --> 00:29:53,530
The modern Jesus movement has had its crowds

679
00:29:53,530 --> 00:29:54,910
and its excitement.

680
00:29:55,630 --> 00:29:57,870
They sang the praises of Jesus and Jesus

681
00:29:57,870 --> 00:29:58,910
was reeling in.

682
00:29:59,530 --> 00:30:01,490
But look what's happening now.

683
00:30:02,230 --> 00:30:04,810
The joy poppers are going back to drugs

684
00:30:05,370 --> 00:30:08,330
and a Jesus revulsion movement is now springing

685
00:30:08,330 --> 00:30:10,290
up as a result of the occult practices

686
00:30:10,290 --> 00:30:11,670
of young people in our schools.

687
00:30:12,350 --> 00:30:15,850
Young devil worshippers have started nucleus of hate

688
00:30:15,850 --> 00:30:17,730
Christ clubs in our schools already.

689
00:30:18,110 --> 00:30:21,710
Hate Christ clubs whose chief aim is to

690
00:30:21,710 --> 00:30:24,430
harass Jesus people and refute the claims of

691
00:30:24,430 --> 00:30:25,250
Jesus Christ.

692
00:30:26,470 --> 00:30:28,730
All but friends, out of this Jesus movement

693
00:30:28,730 --> 00:30:31,550
is coming a hard core of Jesus people

694
00:30:31,550 --> 00:30:34,190
completely given over their old ways of life.

695
00:30:34,910 --> 00:30:37,270
They've forsaken their old habits and they've committed

696
00:30:37,270 --> 00:30:39,410
their lives to service to Jesus Christ.

697
00:30:40,270 --> 00:30:42,690
And my message to you Jesus people today

698
00:30:42,690 --> 00:30:43,770
is loud and clear.

699
00:30:44,630 --> 00:30:47,430
Get ready to be persecuted.

700
00:30:48,530 --> 00:30:51,010
Prepare to face these hate Christ clubs in

701
00:30:51,010 --> 00:30:51,670
your schools.

702
00:30:52,490 --> 00:30:55,370
In many places Christian young people who take

703
00:30:55,370 --> 00:30:57,330
an open stand for Christ will be verbally

704
00:30:57,330 --> 00:30:59,230
stoned by those their own age.

705
00:31:00,010 --> 00:31:02,570
This revulsion movement against Christ is going to

706
00:31:02,570 --> 00:31:06,150
be personally directed by the devil himself and

707
00:31:06,150 --> 00:31:08,490
carried out by those who are committed to

708
00:31:08,490 --> 00:31:09,150
his worship.

709
00:31:10,590 --> 00:31:12,310
Jesus people are going to be not only

710
00:31:12,310 --> 00:31:14,810
considered freaks, they're going to be called all

711
00:31:14,810 --> 00:31:15,610
manner of names.

712
00:31:16,190 --> 00:31:17,710
They're going to be spat upon in the

713
00:31:17,710 --> 00:31:19,890
corridors of high schools and college campuses.

714
00:31:20,990 --> 00:31:22,890
And the day will come when Bibles will

715
00:31:22,890 --> 00:31:24,810
be plucked from their arms and ripped apart

716
00:31:24,810 --> 00:31:26,670
by a laughing crowd of mockers.

717
00:31:27,730 --> 00:31:29,970
The harassment is going to eventually become so

718
00:31:29,970 --> 00:31:33,250
violent and widespread that Christian young people will

719
00:31:33,250 --> 00:31:36,410
either harden themselves like steel and stand up

720
00:31:36,410 --> 00:31:38,990
and witness against it or crumble before it

721
00:31:38,990 --> 00:31:40,010
and deny their faith.

722
00:31:40,530 --> 00:31:42,810
And this is what persecution is all about.

723
00:31:48,590 --> 00:31:51,310
I see coming also a spiritual awakening behind

724
00:31:51,310 --> 00:31:52,690
the iron and bamboo curtains.

725
00:31:53,930 --> 00:31:56,390
While the free nations are experiencing this wave

726
00:31:56,390 --> 00:31:59,870
of persecution, the iron and bamboo curtain countries

727
00:31:59,870 --> 00:32:02,530
will experience a short period of spiritual awakening.

728
00:32:03,310 --> 00:32:06,430
Those who have lived under religious, terrible religious

729
00:32:06,430 --> 00:32:08,750
persecution are going to enjoy a limited time

730
00:32:08,750 --> 00:32:09,210
of freedom.

731
00:32:10,010 --> 00:32:12,370
God's Holy Spirit's going to split the iron

732
00:32:12,370 --> 00:32:14,430
and bamboo curtains and he's going to seek

733
00:32:14,430 --> 00:32:17,150
out and find hungry hearts in Russia and

734
00:32:17,150 --> 00:32:19,890
China and Eastern Europe, no doubt about it.

735
00:32:20,990 --> 00:32:23,150
God's promised to pour out his Spirit upon

736
00:32:23,150 --> 00:32:24,370
all flesh.

737
00:32:24,930 --> 00:32:26,910
He did not exclude these nations.

738
00:32:27,570 --> 00:32:30,330
God is bringing to pass a temporary truce

739
00:32:30,330 --> 00:32:33,170
between the East and the West for the

740
00:32:33,170 --> 00:32:35,390
express purpose of getting the Gospel into these

741
00:32:35,390 --> 00:32:36,350
communist countries.

742
00:32:37,070 --> 00:32:40,870
Japanese and Korean Christians will be used of

743
00:32:40,870 --> 00:32:42,510
God to reach thousands in China.

744
00:32:43,390 --> 00:32:45,390
The outpouring of the Holy Spirit in West

745
00:32:45,390 --> 00:32:48,630
Germany is to reach through to East Germany.

746
00:32:49,250 --> 00:32:52,510
The outpouring that's taking place in Finland now

747
00:32:52,510 --> 00:32:54,870
is destined to spread through Northern Russia.

748
00:32:54,870 --> 00:32:57,730
A tremendous move of the Holy Spirit.

749
00:32:59,250 --> 00:33:02,270
Ironically, while the doors are beginning to close

750
00:33:02,270 --> 00:33:04,410
on this side of the curtain, the doors

751
00:33:04,410 --> 00:33:05,570
will open on the other.

752
00:33:06,110 --> 00:33:08,290
And after a short period of freedom and

753
00:33:08,290 --> 00:33:11,550
spiritual awakening, the doors will suddenly close and

754
00:33:11,550 --> 00:33:14,450
those nations cast into horrible persecution.

755
00:33:17,110 --> 00:33:19,970
Finally, one of the most important of all,

756
00:33:20,030 --> 00:33:21,830
and this comes down close to every pastor

757
00:33:22,570 --> 00:33:25,970
and every Christian in this building, I see

758
00:33:25,970 --> 00:33:27,270
already started.

759
00:33:27,630 --> 00:33:29,350
Now many of these things I've talked about

760
00:33:29,350 --> 00:33:32,130
tonight are mountain peaks that I've seen.

761
00:33:32,890 --> 00:33:34,830
I do believe that they will all be

762
00:33:34,830 --> 00:33:36,250
fulfilled in this generation.

763
00:33:37,510 --> 00:33:39,130
Not all at the same time.

764
00:33:39,990 --> 00:33:42,590
Some of these things beginning to happen even

765
00:33:42,590 --> 00:33:42,970
now.

766
00:33:43,590 --> 00:33:45,830
But one thing that is already upon us,

767
00:33:46,430 --> 00:33:47,890
and I see it clearly.

768
00:33:48,650 --> 00:33:51,190
I see a gossip war.

769
00:33:52,610 --> 00:33:55,030
I know now that Satan has declared war

770
00:33:55,030 --> 00:33:56,970
on every true minister of Jesus Christ.

771
00:33:57,970 --> 00:33:59,950
He's going to leave no stone unturned in

772
00:33:59,950 --> 00:34:02,510
his attempt to discredit and shipwreck every man

773
00:34:02,510 --> 00:34:04,410
of God who's determined to stay true.

774
00:34:05,670 --> 00:34:08,170
Those ministers and priests who refuse to cheat

775
00:34:08,170 --> 00:34:11,570
on their wives, they refuse to indulge in

776
00:34:11,570 --> 00:34:14,230
the freedom of the new morality, they're going

777
00:34:14,230 --> 00:34:17,010
to be the targets of the most vicious,

778
00:34:17,790 --> 00:34:20,889
malicious gossip of all times.

779
00:34:21,730 --> 00:34:24,449
The devil's going to raise up gossip mongers

780
00:34:24,449 --> 00:34:29,130
to harass and malign and lie against you.

781
00:34:30,389 --> 00:34:32,909
I believe that Billy Graham and other great

782
00:34:32,909 --> 00:34:35,670
gospel ministers throughout the world are going to

783
00:34:35,670 --> 00:34:40,370
face more and more ridicule, gossip, misunderstanding by

784
00:34:40,370 --> 00:34:42,110
the press and by liberal people in the

785
00:34:42,110 --> 00:34:42,610
media.

786
00:34:43,350 --> 00:34:44,989
Every motive is going to be questioned.

787
00:34:45,610 --> 00:34:47,489
Every statement is going to be examined and

788
00:34:47,489 --> 00:34:49,230
cross-examined.

789
00:34:49,409 --> 00:34:51,130
They're going to be mocked and maligned by

790
00:34:51,130 --> 00:34:52,330
comedians on television.

791
00:34:53,850 --> 00:34:56,550
And ministers who once thought they had no

792
00:34:56,550 --> 00:34:59,090
enemies in the world will one day wake

793
00:34:59,090 --> 00:35:01,430
up to find out that someone's talking about

794
00:35:01,430 --> 00:35:01,590
them.

795
00:35:02,430 --> 00:35:04,370
They won't understand where it comes from.

796
00:35:05,210 --> 00:35:07,710
Pastors of churches especially are going to face

797
00:35:07,710 --> 00:35:09,550
the most malicious gossip of all.

798
00:35:10,530 --> 00:35:14,570
There will be innuendos, lies, false statements that

799
00:35:14,570 --> 00:35:15,470
were floored around.

800
00:35:15,550 --> 00:35:17,190
They come from the very pits of hell.

801
00:35:19,030 --> 00:35:21,610
It will be a supernatural demonstration of demonic

802
00:35:21,610 --> 00:35:22,050
power.

803
00:35:23,150 --> 00:35:25,590
There will not be a single true minister

804
00:35:25,590 --> 00:35:26,830
of the gospel immune.

805
00:35:27,730 --> 00:35:30,950
And the wives, hear me now, the wives

806
00:35:30,950 --> 00:35:34,210
of those ministers who are married are also

807
00:35:34,210 --> 00:35:36,230
going to come under the attack of malicious

808
00:35:36,230 --> 00:35:36,790
gossip.

809
00:35:38,250 --> 00:35:40,730
Legions of lying spirits have been turned loose

810
00:35:40,730 --> 00:35:43,570
upon the world with the single purpose of

811
00:35:43,570 --> 00:35:46,990
accusing Christians through gossip and slander to rob

812
00:35:46,990 --> 00:35:48,930
them of their victory in faith and trust

813
00:35:48,930 --> 00:35:49,910
in Jesus Christ.

814
00:35:50,930 --> 00:35:53,590
This gossip war will not only be aimed

815
00:35:53,590 --> 00:35:58,230
against ministers but against every true spiritual believer

816
00:35:58,230 --> 00:35:59,230
of Jesus Christ.

817
00:35:59,430 --> 00:36:02,230
Even the teenagers are going to see what

818
00:36:02,230 --> 00:36:04,410
it's like to face malicious gossip.

819
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,300
And now I come to my final word

820
00:36:11,300 --> 00:36:12,660
from the Lord.

821
00:36:16,290 --> 00:36:17,770
You have no idea.

822
00:36:18,890 --> 00:36:20,470
You could not begin to know.

823
00:36:22,650 --> 00:36:24,830
The battle I've had to stand here and

824
00:36:24,830 --> 00:36:25,910
say what I've said tonight.

825
00:36:29,450 --> 00:36:31,410
I've had the enemy tell me everybody will

826
00:36:31,410 --> 00:36:32,170
call you a fanatic.

827
00:36:34,170 --> 00:36:37,370
Why risk 15 years of a certified ministry

828
00:36:37,370 --> 00:36:40,550
where people respect you and stand out like

829
00:36:40,550 --> 00:36:40,990
a fool?

830
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:49,040
But friends, I can't stand here tonight honestly

831
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,540
and just tickle your ears.

832
00:36:52,820 --> 00:36:54,640
The ends of the world have come upon

833
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:54,960
us.

834
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,220
And I've always been a positive preacher.

835
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,980
I've never preached much about judgment.

836
00:37:02,580 --> 00:37:04,240
But my friends, you can't talk about the

837
00:37:04,240 --> 00:37:06,180
coming of Jesus Christ until you open your

838
00:37:06,180 --> 00:37:08,560
eyes and see that all that's happening around

839
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,000
us now, the Lord is saying, look up

840
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,020
when you see these things begin to happen

841
00:37:15,020 --> 00:37:18,160
and rejoice because your redemption draws nigh.

842
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:20,840
And I bring you to my final word.

843
00:37:36,830 --> 00:37:42,850
When I received this vision of calamities, it

844
00:37:42,850 --> 00:37:43,830
so frightened me.

845
00:37:45,150 --> 00:37:49,690
It's so, I was just so transfixed before

846
00:37:49,690 --> 00:37:50,210
God.

847
00:37:50,830 --> 00:37:53,590
He kept me up night after night, again

848
00:37:53,590 --> 00:37:55,110
last night in the middle of the night.

849
00:37:56,990 --> 00:37:58,770
And I asked the Lord about all these

850
00:37:58,770 --> 00:37:59,230
things.

851
00:38:00,290 --> 00:38:01,730
How are we going to do all that

852
00:38:01,730 --> 00:38:04,710
we're supposed to do when so many are

853
00:38:04,710 --> 00:38:06,910
forsaken and people are going into fighting and

854
00:38:06,910 --> 00:38:08,190
they're afraid the ship is sinking?

855
00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:09,750
What do we do, Lord?

856
00:38:10,450 --> 00:38:11,310
Do we abdicate?

857
00:38:12,290 --> 00:38:13,770
Do we turn this whole world over to

858
00:38:13,770 --> 00:38:15,010
the devil and just let him have his

859
00:38:15,010 --> 00:38:15,330
way?

860
00:38:16,570 --> 00:38:18,130
Do we pay off all our bills and

861
00:38:18,130 --> 00:38:19,770
sold away a couple of reserves in the

862
00:38:19,770 --> 00:38:20,130
bank?

863
00:38:20,570 --> 00:38:22,690
Buy a little farm and escape and try

864
00:38:22,690 --> 00:38:24,490
to ride out this storm hoping a better

865
00:38:24,490 --> 00:38:25,190
day will come?

866
00:38:26,290 --> 00:38:27,530
You just give up?

867
00:38:29,490 --> 00:38:31,630
How can you look at all the tornadoes

868
00:38:31,630 --> 00:38:33,710
and the weather forecast and how can you

869
00:38:33,710 --> 00:38:35,690
see all the calamities that every prophet of

870
00:38:35,690 --> 00:38:37,130
God has predicted?

871
00:38:37,290 --> 00:38:39,350
How can the Christian remain sane?

872
00:38:39,790 --> 00:38:41,890
How can he keep his fortitude?

873
00:38:42,110 --> 00:38:43,470
How can he be objective?

874
00:38:43,690 --> 00:38:45,770
How can he be rational in an age

875
00:38:45,770 --> 00:38:47,130
that's falling apart, Lord?

876
00:38:47,190 --> 00:38:48,530
Where do we stand now?

877
00:38:51,510 --> 00:38:54,570
Dear friends, you've got to hear what the

878
00:38:54,570 --> 00:38:55,850
Holy Spirit said to me.

879
00:38:56,550 --> 00:39:00,310
Just five little words, but so powerful they

880
00:39:00,310 --> 00:39:02,250
awakened in me a glorious new hope and

881
00:39:02,250 --> 00:39:04,070
faith and I woke up shouting.

882
00:39:05,090 --> 00:39:07,930
And those five little words, the blazes in

883
00:39:07,930 --> 00:39:09,310
my heart were these.

884
00:39:10,310 --> 00:39:13,670
God has everything under control.

885
00:39:44,570 --> 00:39:46,070
This is what I got.

886
00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:49,530
All of nature is under control.

887
00:39:50,390 --> 00:39:56,030
We hear earthquakes, famines, pestilence, hailstorms, killer heat

888
00:39:56,030 --> 00:39:59,550
waves, floods, drastic weather changes are breaking all

889
00:39:59,550 --> 00:40:00,370
past records.

890
00:40:00,870 --> 00:40:02,670
It looks like nature's out of control.

891
00:40:03,390 --> 00:40:05,850
But God's Word has clearly predicted it would

892
00:40:05,850 --> 00:40:06,210
happen.

893
00:40:06,210 --> 00:40:08,650
The wrath of God is to be outpoured

894
00:40:08,650 --> 00:40:10,650
on this earth through an unleashed fury of

895
00:40:10,650 --> 00:40:15,390
nature because God is warning mankind that judgment

896
00:40:15,390 --> 00:40:19,410
is coming and these are labor pains and

897
00:40:19,410 --> 00:40:20,830
the closer we get to the birth of

898
00:40:20,830 --> 00:40:23,050
His kingdom, the more frequent and intensive we'll

899
00:40:23,050 --> 00:40:25,350
get until the birth of the kingdom of

900
00:40:25,350 --> 00:40:25,650
God.

901
00:40:26,190 --> 00:40:29,150
And it was God who told Job that

902
00:40:29,150 --> 00:40:30,710
he shut up the sea with doors.

903
00:40:31,750 --> 00:40:33,410
The sea can't cross the door.

904
00:40:33,410 --> 00:40:36,110
He set bars and doors to stay the

905
00:40:36,110 --> 00:40:36,890
proud waves.

906
00:40:37,270 --> 00:40:38,970
God said He took hold of the ends

907
00:40:38,970 --> 00:40:41,030
of the earth that the wicked might be

908
00:40:41,030 --> 00:40:44,910
taken out of it, reserved the treasures of

909
00:40:44,910 --> 00:40:47,570
hail and snow against the day of battle.

910
00:40:48,250 --> 00:40:50,870
He divided the water courses for the overflow

911
00:40:50,870 --> 00:40:51,590
of the waters.

912
00:40:51,770 --> 00:40:52,410
That's the flood.

913
00:40:53,010 --> 00:40:54,510
He sets the domain of the earth in

914
00:40:54,510 --> 00:40:55,630
the ordinances of heaven.

915
00:40:56,810 --> 00:40:59,650
He sends forth lightnings and He scatters the

916
00:40:59,650 --> 00:41:01,250
wind upon the earth.

917
00:41:01,530 --> 00:41:02,230
Who does it?

918
00:41:03,030 --> 00:41:05,730
God does it, child of God.

919
00:41:06,570 --> 00:41:09,050
In these days to come, the Holy Spirit

920
00:41:09,050 --> 00:41:12,250
would say to you, don't fear the fury

921
00:41:12,250 --> 00:41:12,790
of nature.

922
00:41:13,410 --> 00:41:15,870
God is still king of the flood and

923
00:41:15,870 --> 00:41:18,610
you look upon those floods, earthquakes and hurricanes

924
00:41:18,610 --> 00:41:21,550
and you say to yourself, that's my God

925
00:41:21,550 --> 00:41:22,110
talking.

926
00:41:22,410 --> 00:41:23,010
He's calling.

927
00:41:23,170 --> 00:41:24,030
He's chastising.

928
00:41:24,390 --> 00:41:25,610
And He's saying, get ready.

929
00:41:26,610 --> 00:41:40,190
Applause Even

930
00:41:40,190 --> 00:41:42,910
the devil is under His control.

931
00:41:47,350 --> 00:41:56,050
Applause As with Job, God may permit him

932
00:41:56,050 --> 00:41:58,790
to touch every material, physical thing around you.

933
00:41:59,430 --> 00:42:00,850
But you hear it?

934
00:42:02,250 --> 00:42:05,910
Satan cannot possess you or rob you of

935
00:42:05,910 --> 00:42:07,470
your faith in God.

936
00:42:08,330 --> 00:42:09,830
The devil's power is limited.

937
00:42:10,290 --> 00:42:12,370
And the Bible said even a baby Christian

938
00:42:12,370 --> 00:42:15,030
can put Him to plate simply by resisting

939
00:42:15,030 --> 00:42:16,690
Him through the word and the blood.

940
00:42:16,690 --> 00:42:19,190
The Bible said resist the devil and he

941
00:42:19,190 --> 00:42:20,450
will flee from you.

942
00:42:20,570 --> 00:42:22,230
Does that sound like defeat?

943
00:42:22,650 --> 00:42:24,470
Does that suggest a victorious devil?

944
00:42:25,190 --> 00:42:25,470
Never.

945
00:42:26,090 --> 00:42:28,810
God has everything under control and we're under

946
00:42:28,810 --> 00:42:31,370
His control so we are not afraid of

947
00:42:31,370 --> 00:42:31,870
the devil.

948
00:42:32,210 --> 00:42:33,750
It is the fear of the Lord that's

949
00:42:33,750 --> 00:42:36,310
the beginning of wisdom and God's message is

950
00:42:36,310 --> 00:42:36,590
this.

951
00:42:36,890 --> 00:42:38,650
I have not given you the spirit of

952
00:42:38,650 --> 00:42:41,250
fear but of love and power and a

953
00:42:41,250 --> 00:42:42,390
sound mind.

954
00:42:44,290 --> 00:42:57,130
Applause You

955
00:42:57,130 --> 00:43:01,150
and I and everything that touches us is

956
00:43:01,150 --> 00:43:02,310
now under His control.

957
00:43:02,550 --> 00:43:04,870
No matter how things look in this drunken

958
00:43:04,870 --> 00:43:08,510
world all things are still working together to

959
00:43:08,510 --> 00:43:11,550
everyone who loves God called according to His

960
00:43:11,550 --> 00:43:11,950
purpose.

961
00:43:12,510 --> 00:43:14,050
All right, let the dollar fail.

962
00:43:14,590 --> 00:43:16,730
Let the depression and recession come.

963
00:43:17,290 --> 00:43:20,790
Let there be unemployment and pollution and inflation

964
00:43:20,790 --> 00:43:23,030
and wars and rumors of war.

965
00:43:23,370 --> 00:43:25,710
Let the fabric and society disintegrate.

966
00:43:25,970 --> 00:43:28,430
For the true child of God everything is

967
00:43:28,430 --> 00:43:29,170
under control.

968
00:43:29,290 --> 00:43:30,050
It doesn't matter.

969
00:43:30,410 --> 00:43:31,510
Nothing can harm you.

970
00:43:31,810 --> 00:43:33,990
He said look up and rejoice and be

971
00:43:33,990 --> 00:43:34,330
happy.

972
00:43:36,170 --> 00:43:48,490
Applause And

973
00:43:48,490 --> 00:43:52,910
in closing the future is under His control.

974
00:43:53,310 --> 00:43:55,830
God has everything pre-programmed.

975
00:43:56,550 --> 00:43:58,490
He knows the exact moment that Christ will

976
00:43:58,490 --> 00:43:58,970
return.

977
00:43:59,590 --> 00:44:03,630
The final tribulation, the judgments, the battle of

978
00:44:03,630 --> 00:44:06,190
Armageddon are all on His calendar and He's

979
00:44:06,190 --> 00:44:07,790
blocking them off one at a time.

980
00:44:08,250 --> 00:44:10,310
And the God who controls all of heaven

981
00:44:10,310 --> 00:44:15,790
and earth says to us Christians, Spirit filled,

982
00:44:16,710 --> 00:44:19,130
the nations are as a drop of a

983
00:44:19,130 --> 00:44:22,410
bucket and are counted as small dust in

984
00:44:22,410 --> 00:44:23,090
my balance.

985
00:44:25,130 --> 00:44:27,730
The nations of the world are just a

986
00:44:27,730 --> 00:44:28,690
drop in a bucket.

987
00:44:29,470 --> 00:44:31,950
All nations are as nothing before me.

988
00:44:31,950 --> 00:44:33,390
They are less than nothing.

989
00:44:33,590 --> 00:44:35,990
Don't worry about worldly powers.

990
00:44:36,090 --> 00:44:38,590
I've got it all programmed.

991
00:44:41,530 --> 00:44:51,490
Applause God is still counting the hairs

992
00:44:51,490 --> 00:44:52,170
on our head.

993
00:44:53,290 --> 00:44:55,090
He's still counting the sparrows that fall.

994
00:44:55,890 --> 00:44:58,290
He's still hearing petitions before they're asked.

995
00:44:58,770 --> 00:45:00,870
He's still answering before being called.

996
00:45:00,870 --> 00:45:03,390
He's given abundantly more now than we could

997
00:45:03,390 --> 00:45:04,370
ever ask or think.

998
00:45:04,770 --> 00:45:06,870
So saints of God, wake up.

999
00:45:06,950 --> 00:45:09,750
He's still saving and healing and baptizing and

1000
00:45:09,750 --> 00:45:11,930
He's getting His house in order and to

1001
00:45:11,930 --> 00:45:13,830
fear is to blaspheme.

1002
00:45:14,650 --> 00:45:17,090
And now you can go over tonight and

1003
00:45:17,090 --> 00:45:19,130
go to sleep and say to your heart,

1004
00:45:19,450 --> 00:45:21,830
God has everything under control.

1005
00:45:24,030 --> 00:45:24,670
Hallelujah.

1006
00:45:25,530 --> 00:45:26,670
No clapping please.

1007
00:45:27,870 --> 00:45:36,610
I finished my vision.

1008
00:45:38,150 --> 00:45:40,190
The Bible said last days you young men

1009
00:45:40,190 --> 00:45:40,950
shall see visions.

1010
00:45:41,810 --> 00:45:42,370
We'll prophesy.

1011
00:45:45,570 --> 00:45:46,730
And you've heard a vision.

1012
00:45:48,590 --> 00:45:50,390
Some of you read the first one in

1013
00:45:50,390 --> 00:45:50,810
my book.

1014
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,020
And I really don't care what anybody thinks

1015
00:45:55,020 --> 00:45:55,540
of me tonight.

1016
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,100
I'm fully convinced that what I've seen is

1017
00:46:00,100 --> 00:46:00,420
true.

1018
00:46:01,300 --> 00:46:03,080
But if even just a part of it

1019
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,780
is true, then we're right there at that

1020
00:46:05,780 --> 00:46:06,940
last moment of time.

1021
00:46:09,500 --> 00:46:11,580
And some of you aren't ready for persecution.

1022
00:46:15,020 --> 00:46:16,400
You can't even run with a horse and

1023
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:17,060
what are you going to do when the

1024
00:46:17,060 --> 00:46:17,520
flood comes?

1025
00:46:20,870 --> 00:46:21,470
You know what?

1026
00:46:21,870 --> 00:46:23,170
It's going to be when we stand before

1027
00:46:23,170 --> 00:46:24,650
God, not so much that there are so

1028
00:46:24,650 --> 00:46:26,530
many sinners, just so many strangers.

1029
00:46:29,030 --> 00:46:31,890
Bogged down by a love of pleasure.

1030
00:46:33,530 --> 00:46:36,230
God's not against your campers, your church, your

1031
00:46:36,230 --> 00:46:38,750
surfboard, your nice clothes.

1032
00:46:41,030 --> 00:46:42,550
But He is against you having all these

1033
00:46:42,550 --> 00:46:44,050
things and not enough time for Him.

1034
00:46:44,850 --> 00:46:46,170
You can sit and watch television.

1035
00:46:47,570 --> 00:46:49,230
You can come here and clap your hands

1036
00:46:49,230 --> 00:46:50,690
and sing about the good things of God.

1037
00:46:50,770 --> 00:46:52,070
You can sit here and share a wonderful

1038
00:46:52,070 --> 00:46:52,890
time together.

1039
00:46:54,170 --> 00:46:56,350
Friends, it better dawn on you soon.

1040
00:46:58,450 --> 00:47:01,250
The ends of the world are upon us.

1041
00:47:01,350 --> 00:47:02,830
This is the hour we've all preached about.

1042
00:47:03,670 --> 00:47:08,050
And if you're truly Spirit-filled, if you're

1043
00:47:08,050 --> 00:47:11,010
the Spirit of Christ, that bears witness with

1044
00:47:11,010 --> 00:47:11,770
you right now.

1045
00:47:12,350 --> 00:47:15,270
What I'm saying strikes a chord in your

1046
00:47:15,270 --> 00:47:15,750
heart.

1047
00:47:17,210 --> 00:47:18,650
I look at some of you dear gray

1048
00:47:18,650 --> 00:47:20,470
-haired folks, and some of you preachers here.

1049
00:47:21,350 --> 00:47:21,950
Why here?

1050
00:47:22,870 --> 00:47:24,490
You've been preaching this for years.

1051
00:47:25,690 --> 00:47:27,510
And I think this is the most exciting

1052
00:47:27,510 --> 00:47:29,890
time in the world to watch the last

1053
00:47:29,890 --> 00:47:30,910
generation unfold.

1054
00:47:30,910 --> 00:47:32,110
We are the last Christians.

1055
00:47:32,670 --> 00:47:34,250
And it's the most exciting thing to see.

1056
00:47:34,650 --> 00:47:36,130
All that we've heard and read over the

1057
00:47:36,130 --> 00:47:38,150
centuries coming to pass right before our eyes.

1058
00:47:38,530 --> 00:47:39,650
And some of you are still sitting there

1059
00:47:39,650 --> 00:47:40,650
not knowing what's happening.

1060
00:47:41,010 --> 00:47:42,110
Jesus is coming.

1061
00:47:42,930 --> 00:47:45,130
Jesus is coming and He's getting His house

1062
00:47:45,130 --> 00:47:45,590
in order.

1063
00:47:46,110 --> 00:47:46,430
Hallelujah.

1064
00:47:49,250 --> 00:47:53,050
Now, no begging, no pleading.

1065
00:47:54,170 --> 00:47:56,550
I really don't know what the Lord has

1066
00:47:56,550 --> 00:47:57,730
prepared for us at this moment.

1067
00:47:57,790 --> 00:47:59,610
But I do know I have felt led

1068
00:47:59,610 --> 00:48:01,170
of the Holy Spirit to have every young

1069
00:48:01,170 --> 00:48:03,310
person, 21 and under, to stand right now

1070
00:48:03,310 --> 00:48:03,790
quietly.

1071
00:48:04,170 --> 00:48:05,210
Please stand to your feet.

1072
00:48:06,250 --> 00:48:07,470
Please open these drapes.

1073
00:48:10,170 --> 00:48:11,050
Come on, young people.

1074
00:48:11,110 --> 00:48:11,910
Look me right in the eye.

1075
00:48:12,950 --> 00:48:15,030
I've got only one ministry and one gift,

1076
00:48:15,130 --> 00:48:16,090
and that's for young people.

1077
00:48:16,710 --> 00:48:18,330
The gift of faith to believe God and

1078
00:48:18,330 --> 00:48:19,110
to touch your heart.

1079
00:48:20,190 --> 00:48:21,950
I told you that the number one youth

1080
00:48:21,950 --> 00:48:24,130
problem coming to America is hatred and bitterness

1081
00:48:24,130 --> 00:48:24,970
toward parents.

1082
00:48:25,430 --> 00:48:26,890
A man's enemies will be there at his

1083
00:48:26,890 --> 00:48:27,470
own house.

1084
00:48:27,610 --> 00:48:29,150
The children will betray their parents.

1085
00:48:30,030 --> 00:48:31,370
Some of you are able to sing and

1086
00:48:31,370 --> 00:48:33,550
shout and even talk in tongues, but you

1087
00:48:33,550 --> 00:48:35,410
don't clean your room, you hassle your parents,

1088
00:48:35,470 --> 00:48:37,030
and you have hatred and bitterness right now.

1089
00:48:37,090 --> 00:48:37,930
That makes you a phony.

1090
00:48:39,130 --> 00:48:41,130
You're one of those 95% Christians.

1091
00:48:41,230 --> 00:48:43,790
You've given 95% for Jesus, but you've

1092
00:48:43,790 --> 00:48:45,410
held back this 5% and you can't

1093
00:48:45,410 --> 00:48:46,210
even handle that.

1094
00:48:49,020 --> 00:48:50,420
And I don't believe you should get just

1095
00:48:50,420 --> 00:48:51,660
an emotional joy pop.

1096
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,120
There comes a time when you can sing

1097
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:56,440
and shout and praise the Lord.

1098
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:58,460
But there comes a time when you've got

1099
00:48:58,460 --> 00:49:01,160
to see how apocalyptic this age is, and

1100
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,260
you say, I want to be ready for

1101
00:49:03,260 --> 00:49:03,920
persecution.

1102
00:49:04,380 --> 00:49:05,820
I want to be so in love with

1103
00:49:05,820 --> 00:49:08,720
Jesus that this persecution that's coming will only

1104
00:49:08,720 --> 00:49:10,660
drive me closer and closer to him.

1105
00:49:10,900 --> 00:49:13,000
It'll rob you or it'll touch you.

1106
00:49:14,340 --> 00:49:16,360
Drive you closer to him or further from

1107
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:16,560
him.

1108
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,260
And I tell you, things had better be

1109
00:49:20,260 --> 00:49:21,220
right in your home.

1110
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:27,460
Things had better be right between you and

1111
00:49:27,460 --> 00:49:28,280
your dad and mom.

1112
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,660
If you stand here right now having a

1113
00:49:30,660 --> 00:49:32,240
root of bitterness towards your dad and mom,

1114
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,100
my Bible said that'll spring up and choke

1115
00:49:34,100 --> 00:49:34,460
you.

1116
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,300
Isn't it a shame that you would be

1117
00:49:37,300 --> 00:49:38,580
persecuting your parents?

1118
00:49:38,720 --> 00:49:40,300
And now we're talking of persecution.

1119
00:49:40,780 --> 00:49:43,980
You be guilty of persecuting your parents because

1120
00:49:43,980 --> 00:49:45,560
you say they don't understand you.

1121
00:49:45,900 --> 00:49:47,380
And this is the ministry the Lord's laid

1122
00:49:47,380 --> 00:49:50,500
on my heart lately because with all of

1123
00:49:50,500 --> 00:49:52,940
that talk about persecution coming in our homes,

1124
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,540
the Lord has also said he would send

1125
00:49:55,540 --> 00:49:56,700
forth the spirit of Elijah.

1126
00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,220
He would also restore the hearts of the

1127
00:49:59,220 --> 00:50:00,320
children to their parents.

1128
00:50:00,700 --> 00:50:01,880
The parents of the children, there'll be a

1129
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,300
coming together of those who are sincerely asking

1130
00:50:04,300 --> 00:50:04,780
and seeking.

1131
00:50:05,780 --> 00:50:06,860
Here's what I want you to do.

1132
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:11,360
We're going to just acapella with no music.

1133
00:50:12,780 --> 00:50:16,140
We're going to sing that beautiful chorus, Oh,

1134
00:50:16,180 --> 00:50:17,080
How I Love Jesus.

1135
00:50:18,020 --> 00:50:20,140
And if we love him, I want to

1136
00:50:20,140 --> 00:50:21,540
give you an invitation to step out of

1137
00:50:21,540 --> 00:50:22,100
this crowd.

1138
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:24,280
Come right up on stage.

1139
00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:26,760
And say, David, this message touched me.

1140
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:28,440
And I've been a phony.

1141
00:50:28,900 --> 00:50:30,360
I've been a 95 percenter.

1142
00:50:30,740 --> 00:50:31,780
And I've been a root of bitterness in

1143
00:50:31,780 --> 00:50:33,180
my heart toward my dad and mom.

1144
00:50:33,240 --> 00:50:34,140
And I want it out tonight.

1145
00:50:34,240 --> 00:50:36,100
I want to be a 100 percent Christian.

1146
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:37,920
And I want to be ready no matter

1147
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:38,940
what the hour is like.

1148
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,160
I want to face the coming of Jesus

1149
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,100
with Godly assurance in my heart.

1150
00:50:43,980 --> 00:50:47,580
I want you, while we're singing this, after

1151
00:50:47,580 --> 00:50:49,640
I pray, to just step out of the

1152
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,540
crowd and come right up these steps and

1153
00:50:52,540 --> 00:50:54,000
stand behind me, facing me.

1154
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:55,740
And I'm going to ask God for a

1155
00:50:55,740 --> 00:50:57,900
miracle tonight in this place.

1156
00:50:58,380 --> 00:50:59,760
I'm going to ask God to raise up

1157
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:04,080
firebrands and put something in your heart so

1158
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,120
aflame and so bright no demon or devil

1159
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:08,160
in hell can touch it.

1160
00:51:09,220 --> 00:51:17,650
Heavenly Father, we're sat under your voice and

1161
00:51:17,650 --> 00:51:18,490
your word tonight.

1162
00:51:19,230 --> 00:51:21,970
Your Holy Spirit is calling and working and

1163
00:51:21,970 --> 00:51:22,310
moving.

1164
00:51:23,730 --> 00:51:25,990
Lord, there are dozens and dozens of young

1165
00:51:25,990 --> 00:51:27,510
people standing here right now.

1166
00:51:27,710 --> 00:51:29,550
They're not ready for that hour of persecution.

1167
00:51:30,550 --> 00:51:34,370
They've crumbled under it, Lord, because they've been

1168
00:51:34,370 --> 00:51:34,610
falling.

1169
00:51:35,250 --> 00:51:35,970
You're far off.

1170
00:51:36,650 --> 00:51:40,370
They've been phonies, just 95 percenters, maybe 70

1171
00:51:40,370 --> 00:51:40,690
percent.

1172
00:51:41,150 --> 00:51:43,030
But there's been a percentage that's not been

1173
00:51:43,030 --> 00:51:43,530
yielded.

1174
00:51:43,730 --> 00:51:45,190
And, Lord, you've said you want it all

1175
00:51:45,190 --> 00:51:45,650
or nothing.

1176
00:51:46,230 --> 00:51:49,410
No more games, no more phoniness.

1177
00:51:50,350 --> 00:51:53,690
Oh, God, an hour of decisions, not decisions,

1178
00:51:53,810 --> 00:51:55,050
but disciples tonight.

1179
00:51:55,890 --> 00:51:58,630
Holy Spirit, call dozens of young people to

1180
00:51:58,630 --> 00:52:01,050
take this walk tonight and say, I step

1181
00:52:01,050 --> 00:52:03,510
out of this crowd to say, Jesus, now

1182
00:52:03,510 --> 00:52:04,610
I am consuming.

1183
00:52:05,190 --> 00:52:07,250
Take out the roots of bitterness and anger

1184
00:52:07,250 --> 00:52:08,410
and rebellion.

1185
00:52:10,830 --> 00:52:13,190
You've been listening to From the Pulpit.

1186
00:52:13,190 --> 00:52:15,810
This week you heard David Wilkerson with his

1187
00:52:15,810 --> 00:52:17,630
message, The End Times Vision.

1188
00:52:18,190 --> 00:52:20,190
Tune in next week for another powerful message

1189
00:52:20,190 --> 00:52:22,310
from God's Word on From the Pulpit.
