[00:00:57] yesterday, today and forever, we praise you. We thank you, Lord, God, that we can come
[00:01:03] together and worship, now that we can worship you in spirit and in truth. Right
[00:01:09] now, we can worship you freely and in peace, and we take our blessings for
[00:01:14] granted many times. I'll ask you, Lord, to anoint me and to help me speak your word
[00:01:20] today. Holy Spirit, speak as we study the word. We don't just assume what's in
[00:01:29] it, but, Lord, we're going to study and see what's in it. We thank you for that. We ask
[00:01:34] you to touch those here today at Fire and Grace Church, touch those watching and
[00:01:37] listening. We pray it in Jesus' name. Amen. Amen. You may be seated this morning. We
[00:01:45] welcome everyone to Fire and Grace Church this morning. We are now in part
[00:01:55] five of this end-time Bible prophecy series. Of course, through several of the
[00:02:02] messages when I spoke about the eclipse and the great sign even last week, I've
[00:02:08] mentioned a few times about the rapture and what I believe about the rapture,
[00:02:14] what I believe that the Scriptures teach about the rapture. In fact, I think on
[00:02:19] the eclipse day, I went through, in the second part of that message, I went
[00:02:23] through some of the key reasons why I believe the Bible does not teach a
[00:02:28] pre-tribulation rapture of the church. Now, I want to make this clear at the
[00:02:33] outset because I've already had somebody comment on Facebook about the term that
[00:02:38] we use called the rapture. Now, that term is not a biblical term. It's not in
[00:02:43] the Bible. It's made up by men. The reason I use it in the title of the
[00:02:48] message or when I talk about this subject is because that's what most
[00:02:52] people understand. That's what most people have heard taught when you teach
[00:02:57] about the resurrection of the righteous dead and then we which are alive and
[00:03:01] remain at the coming of the Lord Jesus, most people have heard that called the
[00:03:06] rapture. So sometimes I have to use terms I don't even like so that people will
[00:03:11] understand what I'm talking about, okay? But let's just say this, that the term
[00:03:17] rapture really should be called the first resurrection is what the Bible
[00:03:22] calls it. There are two resurrections in the last days, two and only two mass
[00:03:29] resurrections, all right? And everybody needs to understand this and they are
[00:03:33] separated by 1,000 years. The first resurrection is of the righteous. That
[00:03:39] means true believers in Jesus, true believers in Jesus that have truly
[00:03:44] been born again, that have made Jesus Lord of their lives, that have repented
[00:03:48] of sin, that are living for Him. Now the Bible says in 1st Thessalonians 4 and
[00:03:55] we're going to run through some of these very quick but we're going to turn
[00:03:57] to a lot of scriptures this morning. 1st Thessalonians 4 verses 13 through 18.
[00:04:02] Matter of fact, go ahead we'll go ahead and start you can put that up and
[00:04:06] just we'll come back to the second slide in just a second but let's let's
[00:04:13] get an understanding about this because of course whenever I mentioned the
[00:04:20] rapture I get a lot of comments, YouTube comments, emails, it really starts
[00:04:29] stirring because you know what hey folks this is an emotional for some
[00:04:32] people this is an emotional issue because they've been taught to believe
[00:04:38] that they're going to escape all the problems of the last days and so it's
[00:04:44] very emotional and I'm going to say especially for some especially for some
[00:04:48] ladies, for you mommies out there you you want to think and believe that you
[00:04:54] know we're going to get out of here before anything gets really rough and I
[00:04:57] understand where you're coming from I have children, grown children, smaller
[00:05:02] children. I would love to tell you that oh we're gonna we're gonna get out
[00:05:09] of here we're not going to suffer any kind of persecution tribulation or
[00:05:12] difficulty or we're not going to actually see aspects of the wrath of God
[00:05:18] hit the earth but I would be a false prophet and a false teacher if I told
[00:05:24] you that. I thought about this as we were getting ready as he's getting that
[00:05:29] it's first Thessalonians 4 huh 13 through 18 is what we're going to look
[00:05:35] at first but I was thinking about Jeremiah the days of Jeremiah and I
[00:05:40] thought about you know Jeremiah started his ministry God called him when he was a
[00:05:44] teenager and I remember that so well because that's Jeremiah chapter 1 is what
[00:05:51] God used when he called me to the ministry when I was 19 years old so I
[00:05:55] was a teenager as well and I remember the Lord speaking to me and just coming
[00:06:00] in the room and in great power I felt his presence overwhelm me I was in tears
[00:06:05] and he told me he said at 19 years old he said son I've ordained you to
[00:06:10] be a prophet to the nations and I said Lord I'm I don't even understand what
[00:06:14] that means I'm too young I can't I can't do I I couldn't even fathom what he was
[00:06:18] saying to me and neither could Jeremiah but over the years as God has taught me
[00:06:27] and as I've learned things and as the ministry is unfolded over time I often
[00:06:33] look back at Jeremiah's life and I see a lot of parallels in my own life
[00:06:37] because I see that how so many people Jeremiah began prophesying as a teenager
[00:06:43] about the judgment of God that was coming upon Israel and they didn't want
[00:06:49] to hear it they didn't want to hear it when he started talking about it they
[00:06:53] didn't want to hear it in the middle of his years of ministry talking about it
[00:06:56] and they especially didn't want to hear about it right before it was about to
[00:07:02] happen they didn't want to hear it and there were even prophets who would get
[00:07:06] up as Jeremiah would be prophesying that Nebuchadnezzar is coming he's gonna wipe
[00:07:11] this place out many of you are going to be killed many of you are going to be
[00:07:16] taken captive they didn't want to hear it and prophets would stand up and say
[00:07:20] in the name of the Lord the name of Yahweh oh no Nebuchadnezzar is not going
[00:07:26] to come in here and do this you're gonna have peace and prosperity God's gonna
[00:07:29] deliver you from Nebuchadnezzar and Jeremiah would say you know the false
[00:07:36] prophets promise you peace peace when there is no peace I'm not going to be one
[00:07:45] of those as a pastor today in this area is preaching a pre-tribulation rapture
[00:07:50] message today he's gonna give an account for giving false security and telling
[00:07:59] people they're gonna have peace when they're about to have great tribulation
[00:08:04] Americans are some of the most deceived and some of the most spoiled people in
[00:08:11] the world we need to understand tribulation has been coming in
[00:08:18] persecution and terrible things don't you know that as somebody told me the
[00:08:23] other day don't go to China and start preaching a pre-tribulation rapture
[00:08:26] they will run you out of the country the Christians with they say you don't
[00:08:34] have any idea what we've lived through since 1949 don't come here preaching
[00:08:40] that nonsense but let's go through this this morning because when you start
[00:08:49] talking about this when you start dashing people's brainwashing of
[00:08:54] indoctrination of many years you know there's that discomfort that comes it's
[00:08:59] called that cognitive dissonance that comes into people's hearts and they go
[00:09:03] you know I just I can't hear this but let's look at it because the Bible does
[00:09:08] say that we are going to see at the coming of Jesus a mass resurrection of
[00:09:14] the righteous dead those in Christ those born again those washed in the
[00:09:19] blood those who have truly repented and made Jesus Lord of their lives this
[00:09:24] is what he says this is this is where we first kind of see this put forth in
[00:09:30] the New Testament after Jesus in the Gospels this is Paul he says but I would
[00:09:34] not have you to be ignorant brethren concerning them which are asleep that
[00:09:39] you sorrow not even as others which have no hope when you some of those that
[00:09:42] are dead for if we believe that means to rely on trusty and clean to true
[00:09:47] saving faith in Jesus Christ that he died and rose again even so them which
[00:09:53] also sleep are dead in Jesus will God bring with him for this we say unto you
[00:10:00] by the word of the Lord that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of
[00:10:05] the Lord shall not prevent or precede them which are asleep for the Lord
[00:10:10] himself shall descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of the archangel
[00:10:15] and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first and then we
[00:10:21] which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the
[00:10:24] clouds to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord
[00:10:29] wherefore comfort one another with these words now as I said a few weeks
[00:10:36] ago and we'll go ahead and jump to second Thessalonians chapter 2 just to
[00:10:42] lay the foundation here we were taught by traditional churches Baptist churches
[00:10:52] Assembly of God churches we were taught by TV preachers for years and years and
[00:11:01] years Oh better be ready Jesus could come at any moment Bible never taught that
[00:11:11] that has been a false teaching and anybody that's ever spewed it out of
[00:11:17] their mouths didn't know what they were talking about because second
[00:11:26] Thessalonians Paul had to clear it up for them because he he introduced this
[00:11:32] resurrection of the of the dead in Christ and we which are alive at the coming of
[00:11:37] the Lord he introduced this concept to them of course Jesus taught it and right
[00:11:42] before in the Olivet Discourse Matthew 24 but here Paul's teaching it again
[00:11:47] but all of a sudden there was confusion so in second Thessalonians he had to
[00:11:51] address the confusion and what was the confusion over the confusion was some
[00:11:55] were saying oh the coming of Christ has already happened or you missed it
[00:11:59] you missed the resurrection you missed the rapture I mean people were talking
[00:12:04] about all this in Paul so he he's gonna clear it up for you he's gonna say you
[00:12:07] know what that day is not coming until some things happen right so here's what
[00:12:13] he said and this is second Thessalonians chapter 2 verse 1 now we beseech
[00:12:19] you brethren by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and by our gathering
[00:12:24] together unto him now hold on a second hold on say everybody pay attention let's
[00:12:28] pay attention to the wording now we beseech you brethren by the coming of our
[00:12:33] Lord Jesus Christ and by our gathering together unto him now what is that the
[00:12:43] gathering together of the saints unto Jesus at his second coming is what is
[00:12:48] popularly called the rapture is true it should be biblical called the first
[00:12:52] resurrection all right he says don't be soon shaken in mind or be troubled neither
[00:13:03] by spirit and notice a small s he's talking about evil spirits or by word
[00:13:10] somebody talking nor by letter as from us as the day of Christ is at hand what
[00:13:17] is he saying don't let anybody trouble you telling you that that day is near
[00:13:21] right now why didn't some out preachers in these days does it Paul said hey hey
[00:13:29] you're getting all worked up about the second not coming not near don't get
[00:13:34] worked up the day of Christ he's saying the day of Christ is at hand don't let
[00:13:38] anybody tell you the day of Christ is near so for all those preterist out
[00:13:42] there who believe that it all happened at the end of the first century or the
[00:13:45] 70 AD Paul will say no no it's not near and then he says this let no man
[00:13:53] deceive you by any means so he says anybody comes along saying guess what
[00:13:58] Jesus could come at any moment there's nothing that has to be fulfilled for
[00:14:02] Jesus to come he's deceiving you let no man deceive you by any means for that
[00:14:09] day I love the Word of God because the Word of God is so clear the coming of
[00:14:16] the Lord Jesus and our gathering to him is one day that day shall not come
[00:14:24] except there come a falling away first and that man of sin be revealed the son of
[00:14:32] perdition and then he goes on and says who opposes and exalts himself above all
[00:14:38] that is called God or that is worshiped so that he has God sitteth in the temple
[00:14:42] of God showing himself that he is God so he tells us the man of sin the
[00:14:48] Antichrist the man of lawlessness will have to come into a temple of God and
[00:14:53] declare himself to be God and to be authority now according to end-time
[00:14:57] Bible prophecy the book of Daniel the book of Revelation we know when that
[00:15:01] happens Jesus even talked about it in Matthew 24 he said when you see the
[00:15:05] abomination of desolation spoken on by Daniel the prophet stand in the holy
[00:15:08] place he's all they're all referring to Revelation 13 they're all referring to
[00:15:15] this time when there will be some kind of rebuilt temple I know some people
[00:15:20] don't believe that but I don't care there's going to be some kind of
[00:15:22] rebuilt temple on the temple Mount it may be a tent it may be a temporary
[00:15:28] structure it may just be a little place of prayer that the Jews are allowed to
[00:15:33] have in the coming peace agreement that's going to happen and it may just
[00:15:39] be and listen Jordanian Muslim clerics are talking about and the
[00:15:44] Jordanians control the temple Mount are talking about letting the Jews have a
[00:15:47] place of prayer little house of prayer on the temple now Muslim clerics it's
[00:15:53] going to happen Bible prophecy is going to happen right you don't have this huge
[00:16:01] area I've been up there I've walked all around up there there's plenty of room
[00:16:04] for a little place of prayer they don't even have to have a big elaborate
[00:16:07] temple so people are getting all worked up about that but folks according to
[00:16:11] Scripture according to the book of Daniel chapter 9 according to Revelation
[00:16:15] 13 according to these things we get a we get a time period of when the
[00:16:19] Antichrist is going to do these things even Matthew 24 where he kind of
[00:16:24] happens in the middle of the chapter he's letting you know that this is going
[00:16:28] to happen in the middle this is when the Antichrist breaks the covenant with
[00:16:33] Israel in the middle and this is when he blasphemes the tabernacle and this is
[00:16:41] when he declares himself to be God and this is when he institutes the mark
[00:16:44] of the beast which we're going to talk about a few weeks all right so we know
[00:16:49] it's about the middle so what I'm getting at here is Paul said don't
[00:16:52] let anybody deceive you the day of the Lord the coming of Jesus Christ and our
[00:16:59] gathering together unto him will not happen until there is a great
[00:17:04] apostasy of falling away that's evident a falling away from truth and the man
[00:17:10] of sin is fully revealed in the temple all right is that clear is everybody got
[00:17:18] that okay so the Bible never taught Jesus could come at any moment never
[00:17:26] taught now we're gonna go back to Matthew 24 because last week I talked about the
[00:17:32] birth pains that I believe we are in the birth pains of the beginning of the
[00:17:40] Great Tribulation I don't know I don't know when the seven the final seven
[00:17:45] years is going to start I don't have a date I'm not predicting anything we do
[00:17:49] have the great sign in about a week that's going to happen but again that's
[00:17:52] just a sign in the heavens it doesn't give us a specific date could it start
[00:17:58] on that day yes could it not I don't know it again the tribulation y'all
[00:18:02] could start with an uneventful day that nothing happens don't you understand that
[00:18:08] it's it's not about something happening on the day the Great Tribulation starts
[00:18:15] where it not happening it's just we may just walk right into it just like any
[00:18:19] other day probably the way it's gonna be what I think all right but Matthew 24 I
[00:18:26] want to show you this because we're gonna go through this thoroughly now of
[00:18:31] course I called today the post tribulation rapture and the great day of
[00:18:35] the Lord's wrath Kevin go ahead and put up slide two if you can and then
[00:18:39] we'll you can keep up with this the scriptures there but just know that we'll
[00:18:45] we'll go to Matthew 24 but for those of you and I hope to put this up if
[00:18:58] you can make sure it's full-screen for the viewers out there but I can kind of
[00:19:03] walk some of you through now I want to say this because I've never really taught
[00:19:07] this here I don't believe but I want you to understand Jesus in Matthew 24 or
[00:19:12] what's known as the Olivet Discourse all right when he was on the Mount of
[00:19:16] Olives and the disciples asking what will be the sign of your coming the
[00:19:20] signs of your coming the end of the world or the end of the age he says
[00:19:24] there he begins to give an outline now I've pointed this out many times we know
[00:19:31] it is an outline that is chronological that is sequential because Jesus says
[00:19:36] here these things are going to start your these are the beginning of sorrows
[00:19:41] these are the birth pains and then he uses the word then this is going to
[00:19:44] happen then this is going to happen then this is going to happen okay to the
[00:19:50] point you get to verse 29 and he says immediately after the tribulation of
[00:19:53] those days so anybody with any kind of logical sins right can look at that and
[00:20:00] go Jesus is giving us a chronological sequential outline of the last days now
[00:20:08] what I want to show you this morning is that Matthew 24 from beginning from
[00:20:14] well from verse 3 to verse 31 is mirrored by Revelation 6 or the seals I'm
[00:20:24] gonna show you how they mirror each other it's the same story but before I show you
[00:20:29] that all right I want you to understand how the seals and the trumpets and the
[00:20:35] vials work according to Scripture not according to traditional teaching but
[00:20:39] according to Scripture not according to the nominations all right now the Bible
[00:20:45] never says when the seals would begin to be opened I do believe that they
[00:20:52] were opened very early in the time of the early church we do know where the
[00:20:59] seals finish okay the seals finish at the second coming of Jesus Christ I'm
[00:21:06] gonna prove that now the traditional teaching as I've said this many times to
[00:21:09] you guys here at our church ought to know this the traditional teaching says
[00:21:12] you're gonna have the seven seals opened that's gonna take you to a time
[00:21:17] period then you're gonna have the seven trumpets and then you're gonna
[00:21:20] have the seven vials that is impossible to have it that way why is it impossible
[00:21:27] because the sixth seal is where the Sun goes dark the moon does not give its
[00:21:33] light the stars fall from heaven and the wrath of the Lamb comes and the
[00:21:38] nations mourn in the mighty men and the rich men begin to hide themselves from
[00:21:41] the coming of Jesus they see him coming and say hide us from the great day of
[00:21:45] his wrath so how could we be at the second coming of Jesus at the sixth seal
[00:21:51] and still have seven trumpets and set and and the seven vials when the first
[00:21:58] vial is poured out right on people who took the mark of the beast pretty much
[00:22:02] right after the midpoint of the when the tribulation in the tribulation so
[00:22:08] we'll cover that in a second so what I'm getting at here is I've shared this
[00:22:12] many times the seals are one story that lead us up to Armageddon the second
[00:22:21] coming of Jesus Christ the seven trumpets are another story and these stories
[00:22:28] overlap again it doesn't the Bible doesn't tell us specifically when these
[00:22:34] would start we we pretty much know now and I don't have time to get into it
[00:22:38] today but I believe five of the seven trumpets have blown already but they
[00:22:44] end the sixth and seventh trumpet ends with Armageddon and the second coming
[00:22:49] of Jesus the last trumpet will you deal with that in a second the seven vials
[00:22:54] they're the only ones we know for sure when they are because it says the first
[00:23:00] vial of wrath is sores come up upon the people who took the mark of the
[00:23:04] beast and people don't take the mark of the beast according to Revelation 13
[00:23:07] until the Antichrist has 42 months to continue and 42 months is three and a
[00:23:12] half years so you're halfway through so we know that this has to start around
[00:23:18] halfway through but yet the sixth and seventh vial brings on Armageddon and
[00:23:26] the second coming of Jesus so I hope everybody understands seven seals tell
[00:23:32] one story like one gospel but ends at the same time but didn't start at the
[00:23:38] same time this seven trumpets tell another story but they end at the same
[00:23:43] spot I'm gonna prove this in a second and the seven vials are the shorter
[00:23:47] story but they tell one story of God's judgment and they end here does
[00:23:52] everybody see that this is the only way to understand the book of Revelation if
[00:23:58] you don't get this it's gonna be a jumbled up mess to you if you take the
[00:24:03] traditional teaching seven seals then seven trumpets then seven vials you
[00:24:09] don't have them where they overlap one another it will not make sense can't
[00:24:15] do it all right now let's look we're gonna flip back and forth everybody I
[00:24:22] want you to flip with your Bibles Kevin's gonna do his best to keep up with
[00:24:24] me but those of you in here those watching if you have your Bible you need
[00:24:27] to keep up I want to show you how this mirrors because what we're talking
[00:24:33] about today is the post tribulation rapture and the great day of God's
[00:24:39] wrath because a lot of people all you know here's what I was here how many
[00:24:43] of you ever heard this oh I know it's a preacher of rapture pastor Dean because
[00:24:48] we're not appointed to wrath I hear I if I had a dollar for every time I heard
[00:24:55] that all right I understand we're not appointed to wrath but you can't make
[00:25:01] the assumption based on your own understanding that that means we're out
[00:25:08] of here okay I tell those same people all the time when do we have in
[00:25:15] scripture another time God poured out very specific plagues to judge the most
[00:25:21] powerful nation on the face of the earth his people were in that nation three
[00:25:26] million did those three million Israelites leave Egypt before God's wrath
[00:25:35] or after God's wrath it's simple deduction is simple Bible we compare you
[00:25:45] know people talk about you got to have discernment well discerning people
[00:25:48] compare spiritual things with spiritual discerning people compare Bible with
[00:25:54] Bible not assumptions with assumptions most of the things that we believe a lot
[00:26:02] of the things we believed in church are just speculation and assumptions built
[00:26:09] upon preconceived beliefs that come from very bad teaching and bad
[00:26:17] hermeneutics all right so let's look at Matthew 24 everybody knows Matthew 24
[00:26:23] now I'm gonna run through them quick Matthew 24 verses 3 we're gonna run
[00:26:28] through this fast because I want to show you how they how Matthew 24 revelations
[00:26:33] 6 and 7 this are mirrored they're basically telling you the same story
[00:26:39] they're giving you the same sequence of events the same chronological order
[00:26:43] so Jesus starts out what will be the sign of your coming of the end of the
[00:26:49] age verse 3 right when will these things be what shall be the sign of thy
[00:26:53] coming at the end of the world Jesus says first thing he says is take heed that
[00:26:59] no man deceive you for many shall come in my name saying I am Christ and shall
[00:27:02] deceive many right well how do we see that mirrored in the seals the first
[00:27:08] seal go to Revelation 6 1 the first seal is the white horse with the
[00:27:17] rider who has a bow and a crown and he goes forth conquering and to conquer I've
[00:27:22] shared with you that these first four seals are evil spirits sent forth into
[00:27:26] the earth to bring about deception the deception of the first horse the white
[00:27:33] horse the rider on the horse is to conquer the world and I believe they
[00:27:38] are represented by the Roman Catholic Church the Jesuits the United Nations
[00:27:44] the trilateral Commission the Council on foreign relations all these different
[00:27:48] groups the Club of Rome all these different groups that want to deceive the
[00:27:52] world that we need to create a world government we need to create world
[00:27:57] peace and it's deception and that's where the false Christ the false
[00:28:03] Messiah the Antichrist is going to come and take control of that and so he's
[00:28:07] he's basically God's letting us know the first thing you're going to deal
[00:28:11] with is this spirit that wants to conquer the world this evil spirit
[00:28:16] through deception through claiming peace through saying we need to unite the
[00:28:21] world so you see that mirrored so what's the second thing Jesus said we
[00:28:26] went through this last week the birth pain he said you will hear of what wars
[00:28:32] and rumors of wars well if you're in Revelation 6 what do you see the
[00:28:39] second horse the red horse he is what he's known as the horse the red horse
[00:28:46] of war why because he has a great sword and he takes peace from the earth and I
[00:28:52] believe this is the spirit represented by communism naziism fascism and this
[00:29:00] spirit this red spirit is the spirit that takes peace from the earth see the
[00:29:07] red horse and there went out another red horse another horse it was red and
[00:29:10] power was given unto him that sat there on to take peace from the earth and that
[00:29:13] they should kill one another and there was given him a great sword that's war
[00:29:16] do you see how it's mirroring each other what's the next thing Jesus said he
[00:29:21] said there will be famine and what pestilence right that's Matthew 24
[00:29:27] what's it say in Revelation here the black horse and we need open the third
[00:29:35] seal I heard the third be said come and see and I beheld and I lo a black
[00:29:39] horse and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand he said I heard a
[00:29:44] voice in the midst of the four B say a measure of wheat for a penny and three
[00:29:47] measures of barley for a penny or a denier I and see that thou hurt not the
[00:29:51] oil in the wine so right here he's telling you that the the black horse is
[00:29:56] going to cause economic depression food shortage inflation which will cause
[00:30:03] what famine do you see that Jesus said pestilence and famine the black horse
[00:30:11] shortage food shortage food expensive okay right after that if you look at
[00:30:20] Matthew 24 in verse 8 where he says all these are the beginning of sorrows look
[00:30:26] at verse 9 what does he say there in verse 9 he says then they shall deliver
[00:30:33] you up to be afflicted and shall kill you you should be hated of all nations
[00:30:38] for my namesake that is martyrdom that is a specific in time martyrdom he's
[00:30:45] talking about well let's go back to Revelation 6 the fifth seal what
[00:30:51] happens at the fifth seal Revelation 6 let Kevin catch up I told him I'm gonna
[00:30:58] go quick and when he had opened the fifth seal I saw under the altar the
[00:31:03] souls of them that had been slain that were slain for the word of God and for
[00:31:07] their testimony which they held and they cried with a loud voice saying how long
[00:31:13] oh Lord holy and true does thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell
[00:31:17] on the earth now hold on a second let me think of it think about this we read
[00:31:21] over words and we don't pay attention these people that had just been killed
[00:31:28] as the Bible says their blood cries out to from the ground as the blood of
[00:31:33] Abel cried out and he says here how long Lord do you not avenge our blood
[00:31:41] on them that dwell on the earth meaning the people that killed them are still
[00:31:44] alive on the earth meaning these were a recent wave of martyrs who are saying
[00:31:51] how long Lord before you judge those wicked evil people who killed us and
[00:31:56] then what does he tell him he says white robes were given unto every one of
[00:32:02] them and it was said unto them that they should rest yet for a little
[00:32:05] season until their fellow servants also and their brethren that should be killed
[00:32:09] as they were should be fulfilled now that's the fifth seal notice how it
[00:32:14] coincides with Matthew 24 nine but let me tell you how it coincides also with
[00:32:27] the the rider on the the green horse so you know what I believe this is this
[00:32:34] end time martyrdom what did we see what did we see in the world in 2014 and 15
[00:32:44] we saw the rise really 2013 we saw the rise of Isis and we saw the rise of this
[00:32:55] Islamic entity that began to kill behead torture martyr hang crucify Christians
[00:33:06] throughout the Middle East Syria Iraq to the point they said they they have
[00:33:15] almost extinguished Christianity completely in those regions I believe
[00:33:23] these are the martyrs who were saying when are you going to judge these wicked
[00:33:28] people and the Lord said wait there's there's another wave of martyrdom
[00:33:33] coming see the fourth horse in Revelation the force seal happens to be
[00:33:42] right but right before the fifth seals open the fourth seal is the green horse
[00:33:45] and green is the sacred color of Islam and it says it has power over one
[00:33:49] quarter of the earth and Islam is one quarter of the population of the world
[00:33:54] right now so that spirit has control over one quarter of the earth these
[00:33:58] this is why I don't know I don't say anybody doubts the Bible because it is
[00:34:02] so specific and it foretold Islam 500 years before it ever came into existence
[00:34:09] and it foretold not only its sacred color but it foretold how many people
[00:34:16] it would have authority over in the end and that it would be partly says
[00:34:20] death and hell is the rider of the green horse death is the rider I had I had an
[00:34:26] Iraqi curd who put in my cable a few years ago who was an interpreter for our
[00:34:32] forces in Iraq and this is what this Iraqi curd told me about Muslims Arab
[00:34:38] Muslims in Iraq he said they don't love anything except death he said they
[00:34:46] don't love their own children they don't love their own families they love
[00:34:49] death he said Saddam Hussein killed my whole family this is it I mean you want
[00:34:58] to talk about an interesting conversation with a cable guy I already
[00:35:08] knew it I've been in the Middle East I knew it but do you see how they're
[00:35:14] marrying one another now let's look at the sixth seal what is the sixth seal in
[00:35:24] Revelation and we're just gonna read from the sixth seal all the way down to
[00:35:29] the end all right here's the sixth seal I'm gonna show you we're gonna go back
[00:35:34] to Matthew 24 right after this because the sixth seal so we've saw we saw the
[00:35:39] first seals the white horse going forth to conquer deception going to conquer the
[00:35:46] earth lie through peace create everything world government then we saw
[00:35:51] the red horse that's gonna bring war and take peace from the earth then we
[00:35:56] saw the black horses after that's gonna be economic destruction and famine and
[00:36:00] then we see what we see the green horse which is Islam turn loose the
[00:36:07] fifth seal we see is this the martyrs right the sixth seal in the book of
[00:36:14] Revelation is the second coming of Jesus or what happens just moments prior
[00:36:23] to it because here's what it says and I beheld and we need open the sixth seal
[00:36:29] and lo there was a great earthquake and the Sun became blackest sackcloth of
[00:36:33] hair and the moon became his blood and the stars of heaven fell into the earth
[00:36:38] even as a fig tree cast as her untimely figs when she is shaking of a mighty wind
[00:36:42] and the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together in every mountain
[00:36:46] and every island moved out of their places remember this phrase right here
[00:36:50] and every mountain and every island were moved out of their places and then he
[00:36:57] says in the kings of the earth and the great men and the rich men and the
[00:37:00] chief captains and the mighty men and every bond man and every free man hid
[00:37:03] themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains that's why they
[00:37:06] didn't spin it you know where all your money's been gone your tax money why
[00:37:10] we're trillions of dollars in debt they've been building underground basis
[00:37:13] to save themselves they're gonna run to these underground basis Bible foretold
[00:37:17] this and then they said why why do they run it it says and they said to the
[00:37:24] mountains and rocks following us and hide us from the face of him that
[00:37:27] sitteth on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb now these are the
[00:37:31] Antichrist wicked men of the world hide us from the face and meaning
[00:37:36] when the sky is peeled back and they see him folks that's the second coming now
[00:37:41] I'm going to show you that this is the event the Sun going dark and the moon
[00:37:45] going dark and the stars falling and the people saying hide us from the wrath
[00:37:50] of the Lamb that's doesn't happen multiple times that happens one time at
[00:37:56] the second coming of Jesus let's go back to Matthew 24 in Matthew 24 he's
[00:38:02] gone through this whole list I'm gonna I'm gonna back up and go through some
[00:38:08] of it a minute but I want you to see verse 29 let's go to verse 29 he's not
[00:38:13] mentioned we've written the whole chapter of Matthew 24 Jesus has yet to
[00:38:17] mention the rapture or the resurrection the catching away of the saints the
[00:38:23] gathering of his elect he's he's not mentioned it not one time through the
[00:38:29] whole chapter and he gets to verse 29 and this is Jesus folks if you won't
[00:38:36] accept what Jesus says you have a problem Jesus said immediately after the
[00:38:44] tribulation of those days shall the Sun be darkened the moon shall not give her
[00:38:51] light and the stars shall fall from heaven and the powers of heaven shall
[00:38:55] be shaken and then right after this shall appear the sign of the Son of
[00:39:03] man in heaven meaning they're gonna see him in heaven in the sky it's gonna be
[00:39:07] peeled back everybody's gonna see there's no secret coming of Jesus there's no
[00:39:14] secret snatching or catching away every eye will see him it says the sign that
[00:39:23] appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven height is from the face of the
[00:39:27] wrath of the lamb the one that sits on the throne and then shall all the tribes
[00:39:31] of the earth mourn why why are the tribes of earth gonna mourn they just
[00:39:35] see him they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with
[00:39:43] power and great glory still no rapture and then what do we see and he shall
[00:39:51] send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet and they shall gather together
[00:39:56] his elect from the four winds from one end of heaven to the other now this is
[00:40:04] exactly what we see the sixth seal the Sun goes dark the moon does not give
[00:40:09] its light the stars fall heaven is peeled back the wicked men of the
[00:40:14] earth see Jesus the rapture happens at the second coming of Christ there's not
[00:40:25] a second coming that secret and mysterious and we're snatched away and
[00:40:29] planes crashing and all that left behind nonsense that is not the way it goes
[00:40:37] down if listen if they're making a movie about it and putting Nicolas Cage
[00:40:44] in it it ain't from God but let's go back to Revelation I go to Revelation
[00:40:55] 7 because what follows in the book of Revelation the sixth seal what is the
[00:41:07] sixth what is the sixth seal everybody Sun goes dark moon doesn't give its
[00:41:13] light stars fall heavens open great earthquake every island every mountains
[00:41:20] moved that's the sixth seal right everybody agree that's what it said
[00:41:24] Revelation 6 let's go into Revelation 7 because we got the seventh seal
[00:41:30] everybody say seventh seal all right so let me turn now Revelation 7 now I'm not
[00:41:41] going to get into the 144,000 everybody keeps asking me to teach them 144,000 you
[00:41:45] know why I won't do it because I don't know what they're for and I don't know
[00:41:48] what they're gonna do and anybody that says they do speculate oh those are
[00:41:53] gonna be 144,000 evangelists they're gonna be here for the tribulation how
[00:41:57] do you know that the Bible doesn't say that you're just making crap up sorry I
[00:42:03] don't teach about it cuz I don't know oh you mean you can say you don't know
[00:42:09] about yeah I don't know I don't know what they are who they are what they
[00:42:13] represent what they're gonna do or what they're not gonna do you know why
[00:42:16] because the Bible doesn't tell me all we know is that they're 12,000 from the
[00:42:23] twelve tribes of Israel and that they're Jews and obviously they says
[00:42:27] they're virgins I don't know are that could they be literal virgins yeah I
[00:42:31] don't know I don't know how it's gonna be I don't know who they are and you don't
[00:42:36] either and don't send me any emails and anybody that you think you know who they
[00:42:40] are because you don't know I love to tell people people ask me questions I
[00:42:50] said I don't know and no one does because the Bible doesn't tell us when
[00:42:56] it happens guess what then we'll know there's just some things that are like
[00:43:00] that when it happens then we'll understand it we're just doing our best
[00:43:03] here that's all we can do I'm not gonna make stuff up all right but after he
[00:43:11] seals these mysterious 144,000 Jews he says this go down to verse 9 he says
[00:43:32] and after this I beheld and lo a great multitude which no man could number of
[00:43:37] all nations kindreds and people and tongues stood before the throne and
[00:43:42] before the lamb clothed with white robes and palms in their hands and
[00:43:46] cried with a loud voice saying salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne
[00:43:51] and unto the lamp and all the angels stood round about the throne and about
[00:43:55] the elders and the four beasts and before the throne and fell before the
[00:44:00] throne on their faces and worship God saying Amen blessing and glory and
[00:44:05] wisdom and Thanksgiving and honor and power and might be unto our God forever
[00:44:09] and ever Amen and one of the elders answered saying unto me what are these
[00:44:13] which are arrayed in white robes whence came that and I said unto him sir thou
[00:44:20] knowest and he said unto me these are they which came out of great tribulation
[00:44:25] and have washed their their robes and made them white in the blood of the lamb
[00:44:31] therefore they are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his
[00:44:35] temple and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them and they
[00:44:39] shall hunger no more neither thirst anymore and neither shall sunlight upon
[00:44:43] them nor any heat for the lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed
[00:44:47] them and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters and God shall wipe
[00:44:51] away all tears from their eyes so end of story of the seals what we see with
[00:44:58] the seals we see it go through this progression the sick seal sun goes dark
[00:45:05] moon does not give its light Jesus is coming and all of a sudden John says
[00:45:13] there was this great multitude in heaven of all kindreds and tongues and
[00:45:18] nation and then if that's not you know if that's confusing to some people then
[00:45:23] John was like where did these come from now here's one for you pre-trib folks he
[00:45:30] says they came out of great tribulation that means they were in it you can't
[00:45:39] get out of a room that you aren't in I don't know my brain just thinks that
[00:45:50] way Patrick tell me all the time you can't jump off a table you didn't climb
[00:45:57] up on right to me it's simple say okay you mean that we're gonna go through
[00:46:10] this whole thing then don't you yes I do unless you get martyred at some point
[00:46:18] before the end well wait a bit what about the wrath of God you're gonna
[00:46:31] tell me that God Almighty the creator of heaven and earth doesn't have it
[00:46:36] figured out who are his and who are not and who to dump wrath on and who not to
[00:46:42] come on folks it's not complicated he knows who are his now he didn't promise
[00:46:56] we would be we would go through and not have any tribulation or persecution but
[00:47:03] when God starts pouring down his special rat like the hell stones like
[00:47:13] the sores breaking out on the people with the mark of the beast notice
[00:47:17] notice the first vial of wrath you want to talk about the wrath of God the
[00:47:21] first vial sores break out boils break out on people who took the mark of the
[00:47:28] beast that wouldn't be Christians so God puts a difference between the two in
[00:47:38] the middle of the tribulation period he managed to pour his wrath on just
[00:47:42] people who took the mark and not the ones who didn't oh but see I'll get get
[00:47:53] off your high horse passionate no you guys get off your false teaching and
[00:47:58] maybe I'll get off my high horse God knows the difference one of the vials of
[00:48:11] wrath is God pouring out darkness upon the seat or this where the the beast the
[00:48:17] antichrist will have his you know his place of his dominion his his actual
[00:48:23] seat where he will have a throne in a kingdom or like a you know like like
[00:48:29] our president has the White House he's gonna have his spot I actually think I
[00:48:33] know where it is he's gonna rule from a place and it says that one of those
[00:48:44] vials around does that have anything to do with me or you no God brought
[00:48:52] darkness on Egypt guess what in Goshen where his people were there was light
[00:48:56] say folks when he when he when he killed the cattle when God brought the
[00:49:02] plague and killed the cattle the livestock of the Egyptians guess what
[00:49:06] Israelites that cattle was fine and when the final plague of death the
[00:49:12] death angel comes in those who obeyed and put the blood of the lamb on the
[00:49:17] doorpost who were in obedience and in faith that death angel moved past their
[00:49:25] house and found the Egyptian who didn't believe and didn't obey folks do you
[00:49:36] even believe Psalm 91 he says a thousand will fall at your side and
[00:49:42] ten thousand at your right hand but it won't come near you God will not bring
[00:49:50] his wrath upon you if you're really his and you really love him and you really
[00:49:57] walk with him he will not bring his wrath he doesn't say you won't suffer some
[00:50:01] of the devil's wrath he says he won't bring his wrath upon you now let's look
[00:50:15] at the trumpets real quick I'm not gonna go through all this I've got a
[00:50:20] video that's nearly two hours about the trumpets I believe Trump at one was World
[00:50:28] War two I mean World War one I believe trumpet number two was World War two I
[00:50:32] believe trumpet number three was Chernobyl I believe trumpet number four
[00:50:37] was the Sun going dark and being blocked out by the oil fields burning
[00:50:42] in the Middle East in the in the Gulf War I believe number five was the 2008
[00:50:47] economic crisis that lasted for five months I believe that was caused by
[00:50:52] demonic locusts out of the pit those weren't real locusts they're demonic
[00:50:55] spirits that were loosed from the abyss I don't have time to go through all that
[00:50:59] the sixth trumpet is the next one to be blown when we won't be blown I don't know
[00:51:03] but the sixth trumpet is a war that kills one-third of mankind with fire
[00:51:07] that's what's next in the trumpets but I want to show you something about the
[00:51:18] trumpets the seventh trumpet and you can go to Revelation chapter 10 the
[00:51:26] seventh trumpet or the last trumpet that sounds familiar it ought to
[00:51:35] Revelation 10 let's look at this remember the remember the timeline I showed
[00:51:45] you a minute ago the sixth seal the seventh seal is just silence but right
[00:51:52] after that sixth seal when the Sun goes dark and the moon does not give its
[00:51:55] light and the stars fall and the heavens peeled back the solid dome
[00:52:00] skies when that happens and Jesus is sitting there they see him the next thing
[00:52:10] in Revelation we see was what the great multitude in heaven where did these come
[00:52:14] from they came out of the great tribulation we got the similar
[00:52:18] situation and let's look at it so you go through the trumpets and I believe
[00:52:22] all five had been blown I can prove it you can believe it or not I don't care I
[00:52:26] can prove it but you get to the sixth trumpet and you get to the seventh
[00:52:35] trumpet now look notice what he says this is Revelation 10 the seventh trumpet
[00:52:38] or the last trumpet in Revelation 10 verse 7 are you with me actually we're
[00:52:48] gonna read actually let's just read from verse 1 I'm sorry Kevin we can back up
[00:52:55] and read from verse 1 all right Revelation 10 verse 1 because I want
[00:52:58] you to see because because there's part of this seventh this seventh trumpet
[00:53:02] angel he's in Revelation 10 and he's in Revelation 11 all right let's read
[00:53:06] about him because this last trumpet is important and he says here in verse 1 I
[00:53:12] saw another mighty angel come down from heaven clothed with a cloud and a
[00:53:17] rainbow was upon his head and his face was as it were the Sun and his feet as
[00:53:21] pillars of fire and he had in his hand a little book open and he set his right
[00:53:26] foot upon the sea and his left foot upon the earth and cried with a loud
[00:53:31] voice as when a lion roar and when he had cried seven thunders uttered their
[00:53:35] voices and when the seven thunders had uttered their voices I was about to write
[00:53:39] and I heard a voice from the heaven saying to me seal up those things which
[00:53:43] the seven thunders uttered and write them not you know the other day I get
[00:53:46] these questions some people ask me what are the seven thunders I don't know
[00:53:49] because guess what they were sealed up and John wasn't allowed to tell us I
[00:53:56] don't know so anybody tells you what the seven thunders are they're making
[00:53:59] up crap again okay I don't know you don't know no one knows just a side note
[00:54:05] all right on that now let's keep going verse 5 and the angel which I saw stand
[00:54:15] upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven and swear by him
[00:54:18] that liveth forever and ever who created heaven and the things that therein are
[00:54:22] and the earth and the things that therein are and the sea and the things
[00:54:25] which are therein that now listen what he says here this this angel says that
[00:54:30] there should be time no longer now try to figure that one out there shall be
[00:54:36] time no longer what does that mean I know I don't know but I think that means
[00:54:39] we're at the end here times up and then he says this but in the days of the
[00:54:50] voice of the seven angel the seventh angel when he shall begin to sound
[00:54:56] everybody read this with me the mystery of God come on can I hear you the
[00:55:02] mystery of God should be finished whoa when the seventh angel sounds his
[00:55:10] trumpet times up the mystery of God is finished meaning there's nothing more to
[00:55:20] be revealed there's nothing more to happen that's it he says the mystery of
[00:55:28] God is finished as he had declared to his servants the prophets does everybody
[00:55:34] see that now go to Revelation 11 are you in Revelation 11 I hear we're gonna read
[00:55:48] from from verse 15 Revelation 11 verse 15 and the seventh angel sounded and
[00:55:56] there were great voices in heaven saying the kingdoms of this world are
[00:56:01] become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ and he shall reign forever and
[00:56:05] ever the seventh trumpet the last trumpet the mystery of God's finished
[00:56:10] everything he spoke to the prophets finished no more hidden nothing and then
[00:56:18] he says the seventh angel sounds and he says oh the kingdoms of this world had
[00:56:23] become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ let's go to verse 16 and the
[00:56:29] four and twenty elders which set before God on their seats fell upon their faces
[00:56:33] and worshiped God let's keep going saying good as wherever saying that we
[00:56:42] give thanks Oh Lord God Almighty which art and was an art to come because thou
[00:56:46] has taken to thee thy great power and has reigned and the nations were angry and
[00:56:52] what happened to the seventh trumpet and I wrath is come and everybody read
[00:56:58] this with me and the time of the dead what what did what time of the dead the
[00:57:08] rapture of the resurrection the first resurrection I'll show you that he
[00:57:11] said in the nations were angry and I wrath has come and the time of the
[00:57:15] dead that they should be judged that thou shouldest give reward unto thy
[00:57:20] servants the prophets and to the saints and to them that fear thy name small and
[00:57:25] great and shouldest destroy them that destroy the earth when does the time of
[00:57:30] the dead I believe this is talking about the righteous dead because he said
[00:57:33] to give reward unto your servants he's talking about the rapture at the
[00:57:41] seventh trumpet or the last time everybody see that and then he's going
[00:57:53] to destroy them that destroy their let me give you a little hint before we
[00:57:56] proceed the Bible says in Luke chapter 17 when Jesus was saying that when his
[00:58:03] coming is going to be like the days of a lot he says the same day everybody
[00:58:09] say this with me the same day that lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and
[00:58:16] brimstone and destroyed them all so Jesus told me the second coming he says
[00:58:23] the same day we go out is the great day it's the last day and it is the great
[00:58:29] day of God's wrath and that is the day that every island's moved every
[00:58:33] mountain the hell stones rain down God rains fire out of heaven and he
[00:58:38] destroys everyone whose names are not written in the Lamb's Book of Life it's
[00:58:43] the day all the cities of the nation's fall the great day of his wrath we are
[00:58:49] taking out the same day and then the great day of his wrath comes down upon
[00:58:57] the world it is one day and this is confirmed by Jesus four times in John
[00:59:07] 6 Jesus says to those who believe those who are the righteous those who are
[00:59:11] walking them he says I will raise him up at the last day and the Apostle Paul
[00:59:22] go to 1 Corinthians 15 51 the Apostle Paul remember the seventh angel he says
[00:59:34] guess what the mystery of God is finished the mystery is finished what
[00:59:41] mystery I love this what mysteries he talking about at the last trumpet
[00:59:49] well Paul gave a hint but a number of years before John wrote the book of
[00:59:54] Revelation he gave a little he gave a little teaser a little trailer Paul
[01:00:02] wrote here he said first Corinthians 1551 behold I show you a mystery we shall
[01:00:09] not all sleep but we shall all be changed in a moment in the twinkling of
[01:00:15] an eye at the last Trump for the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised
[01:00:20] incorruptible and we shall be changed for this corruption must put on
[01:00:25] incorruption and this mortal must put on immortality so Paul said I'm going to
[01:00:30] show you I'm showing you a mystery I'm revealing something what was he revealing
[01:00:34] he wasn't revealing that the righteous are going to be resurrected that was
[01:00:37] taught throughout the Bible that wasn't a mystery he was giving you a hint as to
[01:00:43] the timing of the rapture or the first resurrection he let you know something
[01:00:49] that hadn't been known before that it's going to happen at the last trumpet this
[01:00:55] is before we got the book of Revelation so about 30 years later or
[01:01:02] so give or take a few years John's on the Isle of Patmos and God gives him
[01:01:07] the vision the open vision calls him up to heaven and shows him everything that's
[01:01:11] gonna happen that's the book of Revelation and and John gives us these
[01:01:14] seven trumpets that nobody knew about before that we're gonna happen and at
[01:01:18] the last trumpet he says the mystery is finished the time of the dead has
[01:01:25] happened now to give reward to my servants everybody see that now if
[01:01:34] that were not enough we got a little bit more to do here we're gonna look at
[01:01:40] let's look at the six vials of right Revelation chapter 16 somebody say oh
[01:01:50] amen or old me which is it amen or old me watch it there don't make me call
[01:02:03] your name out alright Revelation chapter 16 now let's look at this remember I
[01:02:12] said the vials of wrath they're the third story of judgment of the final
[01:02:17] judgment where the other day I said I made a statement at one of my
[01:02:22] messages I said that seven is the number of judgment completed judgment
[01:02:30] somebody came back and go oh no it's not that's the number of perfection where
[01:02:34] do you get that from I said well there's seven seals and there's seven trumpets of
[01:02:39] judgment and there's seven vials of wrath I just kind of assumed it had
[01:02:42] something to do with judgment the judgment of God being finished he's the
[01:02:48] one that picked seven seals seven trumpets and seven vials of wrath I
[01:02:51] didn't pick that so you know some people get bent out of shape over some
[01:02:57] silly things here we go 16 Revelation 16 verse 1 and I heard a great voice out
[01:03:07] of the temple saying to the seven angels go your ways and pour out the
[01:03:11] vials of the wrath of God upon the earth and the first went and poured out
[01:03:16] his vial upon the earth and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the
[01:03:21] men which had the mark of the beast and upon them which worshipped his image and
[01:03:25] the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea and it became his blood of a
[01:03:29] dead man and every living soul died in the sea and the third angel poured out
[01:03:35] his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters and they became his blood now
[01:03:38] remember these judgments happened in Egypt this judgment of the blood the
[01:03:43] water's being turned to blood happened in Egypt the fish in the river die yet
[01:03:47] the Israelites survived till it was over let's keep going verse 5 and I heard the
[01:03:56] angel of the water say thou art righteous O Lord which art and was to
[01:04:00] shout shall be because thou has judged us for they have shed the blood of saints
[01:04:04] and of prophets and thou has given them blood to drink for they are worthy and I
[01:04:09] heard another out of the altar say even so Lord God Almighty true and
[01:04:13] righteous are thy judgments and the fourth angel poured out his vial upon
[01:04:16] the Sun and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire now notice the Sun
[01:04:22] here is still there it's not gone dark right so this is not the second coming
[01:04:26] this is just a judgment where God moves upon the Sun specifically to scorch
[01:04:32] those who blaspheme that wouldn't be Christians I would hope you're a
[01:04:39] Christian blaspheming we've had a problem and men were scorched with the great
[01:04:46] heat and blaspheme the name of God which has power over these plagues and
[01:04:50] they repented not to give him glory and the fifth angel poured out his vial upon
[01:04:54] the seed of the beast and his kingdom was full of darkness and they gnawed their
[01:04:58] tongues for pain and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and
[01:05:02] their swords and repented not of their deeds now they didn't repent of their
[01:05:05] deeds I think for maybe a couple of reasons here number one they'd already
[01:05:09] taken the mark of the beast and worshiped his image so there's no hope
[01:05:12] at that point once you do that it's over there's no hope for forgiveness
[01:05:16] also you probably cross the line and it does something to you spiritually and
[01:05:21] maybe even physically to the point where you cannot you were given over to a
[01:05:26] reprobate mind you you you don't you don't want to repent no matter what
[01:05:31] happens don't go that far and then he gets to the sixth angel so here we're
[01:05:38] at the sixth vial of wrath almost at the very end of everything and the
[01:05:43] sixth angel poured out his vial upon the Great River Euphrates and the water
[01:05:48] there I was dried up that the way of the kings of the East might be prepared and
[01:05:51] I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon now
[01:05:55] to the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet for they
[01:05:58] are the spirits of devils working miracles which go forth into the kings
[01:06:02] of the earth and of the whole world to gather them to the battle of the Great
[01:06:06] Day of God only everybody said great day see people have talked about the day of
[01:06:11] the Lord as if it's the whole seven years is the day of the Lord that's
[01:06:14] not true the day of the Lord is a day it's a day it's a battle it's a day of
[01:06:25] great judgment and so these unclean spirits go out of the mouth of the beast
[01:06:29] and the false prophet and Satan the dragon and they gather together the
[01:06:34] whole world to battle to come to battle who are they coming to battle they're
[01:06:40] gonna come battle Jesus look at verse 15 this is the Lord speaking behold I
[01:06:46] come as a thief blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments
[01:06:48] lest he walk naked and they see his shame and he gathered them together into the
[01:06:52] place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon so here's the sixth vial
[01:06:57] he's drawing the kingdoms of the earth the kings and the armies of the earth to
[01:07:02] the Battle of Armageddon the Valley of Megiddo in Israel now here we are the
[01:07:07] seventh angel everybody say this with me seventh angel seventh vial of wrath
[01:07:13] let's read what he said verse 17 and the seventh angel poured out his vial
[01:07:20] into the air and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven from
[01:07:24] the throne saying it is done now let me start right there what do we see happened
[01:07:29] at the seventh trumpet he said what the mystery of God's finished we're done
[01:07:34] time is no more here at the seventh vial of wrath what does he say it is
[01:07:41] done it's finished do you see how these are the same these things happen at
[01:07:47] the same time and he says look what he says he says in verse 18 and there were
[01:07:53] voices and thunderings and lightnings and there was a great earthquake where
[01:07:58] do we read that the sixth seal there was a great earthquake right he says there
[01:08:05] was a great earthquake so mighty an earthquake and so great was it was not
[01:08:10] since men were upon the earth and then he says verse 19 and the great
[01:08:15] city was divided into three parts that is Jerusalem and then he says and the
[01:08:21] cities of the nations fail everybody you know again we read over the cities of
[01:08:25] the nations fail me right there every single city wicked city across the
[01:08:33] entire world crumbled that day why you think it's called the great day of
[01:08:40] God's wrath he is wiping the earth clean of the wicked and everything they
[01:08:45] built he's going to destroy them all and he says look at this and the great city
[01:08:56] was divided into three parts and the cities of the nations fell and great
[01:09:00] Babylon which I believe is Roman Catholic Church the Vatican Rome came in
[01:09:06] remembrance before God to give under her the cup of the wine of the fiercest of
[01:09:11] his wrath look at verse 20 and every island fled away and every and the
[01:09:17] mountains were not found where do we see that before Kevin put up revelation six
[01:09:25] real quick the sixth seal what do we say go to back to the sixth seal and the
[01:09:38] heaven departed as a scroll revelation 614 and the heaven departed as a scroll
[01:09:43] when it is rolled together and every mountain and island were moved out of
[01:09:47] their places you see sixth seal seventh file of wrath same event same day
[01:09:54] pastor Dean when do we get out here let's keep reading verse 20 and every
[01:10:03] island fled away and the mountains were not found and there fell upon men a great
[01:10:08] hail out of heaven every stone about the weight of a talent and men blasphemed God
[01:10:12] because of the plague of hell for the plague thereof was exceeding great now
[01:10:16] let me stop real quick we're almost done listen to me so you see the seventh
[01:10:24] file of wrath that's the end it is done he says the great city of Rome
[01:10:30] destroyed all the cities of the nation's fall every island every mountains move
[01:10:35] that's exactly six the sixth seal that's the same thing happen the seventh
[01:10:41] trumpet is the same thing the seventh file of wrath now revelation 17 and 18
[01:10:49] reveal who the great whore mystery Babylon is we're gonna cover that it is
[01:10:54] the Roman Catholic Church and I all this stuff it's Saudi Arabia it's
[01:10:58] America no it's not we'll deal with that thoroughly in the days ahead but
[01:11:05] hear me revelation 17 and 18 it's like a parenthetical statement it's just it
[01:11:12] kind of pauses in the middle of everything gives you two chapters to
[01:11:15] identify the great whore mystery Babylon but really from verse 6 from
[01:11:20] Revelation 16 picks up in verse in chapter 19 because what do we see the
[01:11:26] end of Revelation 16 we see the great whore mystery Babylon being destroyed and
[01:11:31] then Revelation 19 picks up talking about her being destroyed well look at
[01:11:36] the end of chapter 18 go to chapter 18 verse 18 he's talking about the
[01:11:45] judgment of mystery Babylon and he says this and and the people cried when they
[01:11:57] saw the smoke of her burning saying what's what city is like into this
[01:12:01] great city and they cast dust upon their heads and cried weeping and
[01:12:05] saying alas alas that great city where and was made rich all that had ships in
[01:12:10] the sea and by reason of the coastlines for it was in one hour she is made
[01:12:14] desolate rejoice over her thou heaven and ye holy apostles and prophets for
[01:12:20] God hath avenged you on her now I want to say this there are people that talk
[01:12:24] about the United States being mystery Babylon who killed the prophets and the
[01:12:33] apostles of the original apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ that he has said
[01:12:37] I'm I've now avenged the blood of my apostles and prophets Rome it was Rome
[01:12:45] it was not America America didn't exist it was Rome the city of Rome and he goes
[01:12:53] on he says verse 20 again rejoice over her thou heaven and you holy apostles and
[01:12:59] prophets for God hath avenged you on her and a mind the angel took up a
[01:13:03] stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea saying thus with
[01:13:06] violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down and shall be found no
[01:13:10] more at all and the voice of harpers and musicians and pipers and trumpeters shall
[01:13:14] be heard no more at all in thee and no craftsmen and whatsoever craft he be shall
[01:13:19] be found anymore in thee and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at
[01:13:23] all and the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee and the
[01:13:28] voice of the bridegroom and the bride shall be heard no more at all for thy
[01:13:31] merchants were the great men of the earth for by thy sorceries were all
[01:13:35] nations deceived and in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints and
[01:13:39] of all that were slain upon the earth so he's talking about the judgment of the
[01:13:44] great whore mystery Babylon and her agents the Jesuits that have had their
[01:13:49] hands in every government of the world in helping to create Islam and not the
[01:13:57] Nazis and the Communists everything we can trace back to Rome but look at
[01:14:05] chapter 19 verse 1 when is the bride made ready again the timing when do we
[01:14:17] see the bride getting her white Roman here we go her white clothing
[01:14:22] Revelation 19 and after these things I heard a great voice of much people in
[01:14:29] heaven saying hallelujah salvation and glory and honor and power unto the
[01:14:33] Lord our God for true and righteous are his judgments for he have judged
[01:14:37] the great whore that's mystery Babylon the Roman Catholic Church which did
[01:14:42] corrupt the earth with her fornication that word means idolatry and hath avenge
[01:14:46] the blood of his servants at her hand and again they said hallelujah and the
[01:14:51] smoke and her smoke rose up forever and ever and the four and twenty elders
[01:14:55] and the four beasts fell down and worshiped God that sat on the throne
[01:14:58] saying amen hallelujah and the voice came out of the throne saying praise our
[01:15:03] God all ye his servants and ye that fear him both small and great and I heard as
[01:15:07] it were the voice of a great multitude here's this multitude again I heard
[01:15:12] this great multitude as the voice of many waters as the voice of mighty
[01:15:17] thundering saying hallelujah for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth and why
[01:15:21] why are they rejoiced look at verse 7 let us be glad and rejoice and give
[01:15:28] honor to him for the marriage of the lamb is come when does the marriage of
[01:15:32] the lamb happen after the judgment of the great whore when does the judgment
[01:15:39] of the great whore happen at the seventh vial of wrath and the seventh trumpet or
[01:15:45] the last trumpet which is when we are changed in the moment in the twinkling of
[01:15:49] an eye he says the bride let us be glad and
[01:15:56] rejoice and give honor to him for the marriage of the lamb has come and his
[01:15:59] wife hath made herself ready and to her was granted that she should be
[01:16:04] arrayed in fine linen clean and white for the fine linen is the righteousness
[01:16:08] of the saints and he saith unto me right blessed are they which are called to the
[01:16:12] marriage supper of the lamb and he saith unto me these are the true sayings of
[01:16:16] God now what follows that see see let me let me break it down for you before we
[01:16:24] read verse 11 let me break it down boom the sun goes dark the moon doesn't give
[01:16:31] it light the stars fall from the firmament the firmament begins to crack
[01:16:34] open and move back the firmament I believe parts of it are the hail that
[01:16:38] comes down and begins to crush and destroy the kings and the wicked of the
[01:16:44] earth see the Lord Jesus sitting upon his throne and beginning to descend they
[01:16:49] say hide us from the face and the wrath of the lamb these things began to
[01:16:54] happen so the seventh the seventh trumpet sounds the mystery of God is
[01:17:00] finished in a moment in the twinkling of an eye as as the sixth trumpet or the
[01:17:05] sixth vial is gathering the armies of the world are gathering to the land of
[01:17:10] Israel to fight Jesus because they see him they're gathering to fight and they see
[01:17:15] him he says the seventh trumpet sounds he says time is no more it's finished
[01:17:20] it's done in a moment the twinkling of an eye we're changed the dead and
[01:17:25] Christ are rised up we which are alive and remain are called up to meet the
[01:17:29] Lord in the air it's in the moment in the twinkling of an eye it's not gonna
[01:17:32] take weeks or years but we are changed we are with the Lord in the air the
[01:17:40] seventh seal says there's 30 minutes of silence I believe that is when we have
[01:17:45] in heaven with the Lord we have a moment with him we get our white robes we get
[01:17:56] our rewards remember he said time is no longer so time is irrelevant at this
[01:18:00] point we could be in heaven to what us seems like a year it could be five
[01:18:08] minutes on earth but the next thing you see after the judgment of the great
[01:18:16] whore and you see the lamb the the marriage of the lamb has come the bride
[01:18:21] is there she gets her white red hair white clothing we get our rewards the
[01:18:28] next thing you see and I saw heaven open and a white horse verse 11 and he
[01:18:38] that set upon him was caught was called faithful and true and in righteousness he
[01:18:44] doth judge and make war his eyes were as a flame of fire and on his head were
[01:18:50] many crowns and he had a name written that no man knew but he himself and he
[01:18:55] was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood and his name is called the word
[01:19:00] of God and the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses
[01:19:05] clothed in fine linen white and clean and out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword
[01:19:09] that with it he should smite the nations and he shall rule them with a rod of
[01:19:14] iron and and and he treaded the winepress of the wrath and the fierceness of in
[01:19:19] the wrath of Almighty God and he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name
[01:19:25] written King of Kings and Lord of Lords votes that is how the Bible plays it
[01:19:36] out not pastor Dean that's how the Bible plays there's no pre-tribulation
[01:19:45] rapture that is a myth that is a doctrine created by men we are here and
[01:19:59] I'm just want to say a little word for the pre-wrath people out there because
[01:20:04] I've got some of them that torment me as well I have the sign by van Kempen
[01:20:13] I've read the rapture question I have Rosenthal's book I've read all of it okay
[01:20:20] pre-wrath theory is pre-trib light that's all it is and it's no more
[01:20:27] biblical than than the pre-trib view because it still tries to break these
[01:20:34] things up in seven seals seven trumpets seven vials happening one after the
[01:20:44] other and it's just not the way it works now folks I don't know about you
[01:20:49] you say well pastor Dean this scares me hopefully if it scares you it scares
[01:20:55] you not to get you get you right with God right but it doesn't scare me you
[01:21:00] know why I get excited I'm ready to see what God's gonna do through his people
[01:21:12] because you know the book of Daniel chapter 11 says that these things are
[01:21:16] gonna come on the world and he says but the Lord the Lord's people he said
[01:21:22] will be strong and do exploits Isaiah 60 says darkness is going to come upon the
[01:21:29] earth and gross darkness the people but the Lord will arise upon his people he
[01:21:36] said my glory be seen I'm gonna tell you how many of you know that you see a
[01:21:42] flashlight or a candle better when the lights go out the darker it gets the
[01:21:50] more evident the light becomes see that's what's gonna happen with the
[01:21:56] church Jesus prayed folks Jesus prayed the prayer of Jesus y'all want to hear it
[01:22:04] John 17 here's what he prayed John 1715 Jesus said I pray not that thou
[01:22:22] shouldest take them out of the world but that thou shouldest keep them from
[01:22:26] me now that's the prayer of Jesus and men came up with a doctrine that God's
[01:22:33] going to come around here and sneaky take us away at the end that's not what
[01:22:40] Jesus prayed is it I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world but
[01:22:45] that thou shouldest keep them from evil listen to the voice of Paul what he said
[01:22:49] here you know as Christians we should want to be here as long as possible in
[01:22:56] order to win as many people to Jesus as we can why would we want to leave them
[01:23:00] Paul said this he said I am in a straight betwixt the two having a
[01:23:09] desire to depart and to be with Christ which is far better nevertheless to abide
[01:23:14] in the flesh is more needful for you Philippians 1 and 23 and 24 Paul said yeah
[01:23:20] I would love to go and be with Christ that is far better than this life in
[01:23:24] this world he said but for me to abide here in the flesh is more needful for
[01:23:29] you why was he he said it's more needful for me to be here to train and
[01:23:33] to teach believers and to lead unsaid people to know Jesus that's more
[01:23:38] important than getting out of here people the next one the next
[01:23:44] pre-tripper that accuses me of pride I'm gonna say there's nothing more
[01:23:47] prideful and say I'm getting out of here but you wicked people are gonna have to
[01:23:51] stay you arrogant person you should want to stay here and be alike to them even
[01:24:00] if you have to suffer see that is really the key to this we don't want to
[01:24:08] suffer anything we don't want any difficulty we don't want any
[01:24:14] persecution we don't want any trouble we want everything to be wonderful
[01:24:21] and sweet and prosperous and successful and your best life now that's what we
[01:24:28] want every day of Friday as Joel says all smiles and giggles it's just not the
[01:24:46] way it is so folks there's no pre tribulation rapture there's no mid
[01:24:56] tribulation there is no pre wrath somewhere in the fourth or fifth year
[01:25:01] rapture it's at the last day the last trumpet the end at the second coming not
[01:25:11] the third coming and you know what I know I know they're gonna try to kill me
[01:25:21] before then but I hope I get this I hope I get to see it all I hope I'm standing
[01:25:30] there on the day the final trumpet blows and I'm still alive I hope so not
[01:25:38] because I don't I don't mind being marty but I hope I get to see it from
[01:25:45] this perspective because there's never gonna be another day quite like the
[01:25:57] great day of God Almighty's wrath is coming are you ready that's the question a
[01:26:07] lot of people think they're ready and I'm gonna end with this there are a lot
[01:26:14] of people out there a lot of people that would tell you I believe in Jesus I
[01:26:23] believe that he died on the cross for my sins I believe that he rose from the
[01:26:28] dead they go to church or they listen to sermons and videos but they've never
[01:26:36] been born again I have a little conversation with a 32nd degree mason
[01:26:41] the other day and we had a long discussion because he had walked away from
[01:26:54] God and became a mason it got very very high up in the masons but you know as
[01:27:06] we started talking of course the curses the curses are upon him the demonic
[01:27:12] forces are just tormenting and vexing from all the oaths and rituals and
[01:27:20] things he participated in and he knows it and of course no one's talked to him
[01:27:25] about deliverance until he called me so I talked to him about deliverance but you
[01:27:32] know I don't assume anything anymore because he's sitting there talking about
[01:27:36] hey believe in Jesus and all the stuff and I said you know I said before we go
[01:27:40] any further in this conversation I gotta ask you this I know you tell me you
[01:27:44] believe in Jesus I know you tell me you believe he he died for your sins on
[01:27:48] the cross that he rose from the dead you say you believe the Bible you say
[01:27:52] you would die for Jesus you'd be a martyr that's all commendable but was
[01:27:58] there ever a day was there ever a moment that you asked Jesus to come in and be
[01:28:05] Lord of your life to forgive your sins and you really meant business that you
[01:28:10] were going to give him everything total surrender turn from your sin and become
[01:28:17] a true disciple and that was so real that was so genuine and sincere that
[01:28:24] the Holy Spirit came in you and upon you and immediately bore witness that
[01:28:31] your sins were forgiven that you were born again that you were child of God I
[01:28:35] said did you ever have a supernatural experience called being born again folks
[01:28:43] there are a lot of people who are believers of Jesus in their head and
[01:28:49] they've never ever been born again and folks let me tell you if you haven't
[01:29:01] been hit by the presence and power and peace and love of God through the Holy
[01:29:08] Spirit when you accepted Jesus you might have prayed a sinner's prayer but that
[01:29:12] didn't mean you were born again there's a lot of people that's prayed a sinner's
[01:29:17] prayer and I don't have a problem with it if you can say I truly surrendered I
[01:29:22] truly repented I truly gave my whole life I'm holding nothing back everything's
[01:29:27] yours Lord and you felt the peace and love of God the as the old hymn used to
[01:29:34] say the blessed assurance that you know that you know in your knower that you
[01:29:43] were born again through faith in Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Ghost if
[01:29:51] you've never had that supernatural experience I don't care how many times
[01:29:54] you've been to church I don't care how many times you prayed a sinner's prayer
[01:29:57] I don't care how many times you've been baptized sprinkled or whatever okay how
[01:30:02] many sermons you've listened how much Bible you studied I don't care if you
[01:30:07] haven't been born again supernatural encounter with Jesus Holy Spirit bearing
[01:30:13] full witness that you are a child of God let me tell you folks when when I
[01:30:20] was born again I couldn't hold back the tears I couldn't hold back the
[01:30:25] shaking I couldn't hold back the overwhelming encounter with Jesus Christ
[01:30:31] if you haven't had that I'm gonna tell you you better find it you better seek
[01:30:38] until you find and the reason I'm gonna say this the reason a lot of people are
[01:30:46] come forward in a church service or or pray with a TV preacher or whatever the
[01:30:53] reason a lot of people will do that because they feel guilty over their sin
[01:30:57] but they don't really mean to surrender their own will their own plans their
[01:31:01] whole life they don't really mean to give up they want fire insurance but they
[01:31:05] don't want Jesus to be Lord they want forgiveness but they don't want
[01:31:08] lordship and you can't be saved until you say Lord I will do whatever you
[01:31:16] want me to do I give up doing it my own way so many people have never ever
[01:31:28] truly surrendered their will you go from being your own boss see people
[01:31:42] wonder how Pasadena you didn't you didn't go to seminary you didn't do
[01:31:46] this you didn't you didn't do it their way you're right I didn't God wouldn't
[01:31:53] let me do it that way let me tell you what happened to me I said God I will I
[01:31:59] will walk away from it all all my plan modeling career movie career doctor
[01:32:09] playing football sexual immorality the desire to be rich and famous I know it
[01:32:17] was all right there my it was all right there I could have had I could have had
[01:32:20] it every bit of it but you know what I said Lord I said I'm done from this
[01:32:31] point I remember June June 1987 I said that's it I'm done my life is yours God
[01:32:42] whatever you have me to do and I want to tell you did he ever come back in
[01:32:54] and filled me with his Holy Spirit began to do amazing things in my life but
[01:33:03] I wouldn't be here today teaching preaching or doing any of this if I
[01:33:09] hadn't made that decision let me tell you a lot of Sunday mornings I want to stay
[01:33:15] in bed too you know why I don't because God wants me to feed his sheep
[01:33:26] the reason I get stressed out sometimes it's not because I can't get up and
[01:33:39] preach a sermon I can get up and preach on anything but I don't want to
[01:33:42] do that I want to know what God wants me to preach on so I'm stressing and trying
[01:33:47] to break through my flesh and my tiredness or all kind of difference I'm
[01:33:51] trying to break through that so I make sure I'm getting what he wants me to talk
[01:33:56] about that day to that group of people and I can just tell you the devil
[01:34:04] doesn't like it and I'm gonna say this for all those people out there I
[01:34:10] don't think I'm anything trust me I struggle with sin I struggle with
[01:34:20] temptation I struggle with my mind I struggle with all kind of worries and
[01:34:27] concerns and I struggle there's days my wife will tell you I would just rather
[01:34:33] just go crawling to under a rock and disappear I know I look I can tell you
[01:34:41] right now in this flesh in me dwells no good thing nothing nothing everything I
[01:34:56] have every ability I have to teach or preach everything is is what God has
[01:35:04] given me and sometimes I don't even want it because the responsibility and the
[01:35:10] weight of it is almost too much so I just want to say that to people out there
[01:35:15] I look I'm not perfect I don't get everything right I just try my best I
[01:35:20] hope you do the same let's stand folks we are we are nothing without the
[01:35:46] blood of Jesus washing our sins away we are nothing we have nothing unless
[01:35:53] truly the Holy Spirit gives it to us and works it through us you can try with all
[01:35:58] your might and strength to do something for God but if he didn't call you to do
[01:36:03] it or tell you to do it it's just flesh the key to everything make sure you're
[01:36:13] born again you're truly born again Jesus is Lord of your life get filled
[01:36:19] with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues and start
[01:36:22] operating the gifts spend time in prayer in the Word of God and learn to
[01:36:29] hear his voice and discern what the Holy Spirit is leading you to do and then
[01:36:33] when he tells you to do something and lead you to do something you do it
[01:36:36] that's Christianity if he tells you to shut your mouth shut your mouth if he
[01:36:43] tells you to speak speak if he tells you to go over there go over there if
[01:36:48] he tells you to stay and wait stay and wait and if it's written in the
[01:36:54] Bible you know and if I hear one more person tell me it doesn't matter when the
[01:37:04] when the rapture is oh my god I guess it God shouldn't have put it in there in
[01:37:11] the book no all truth matters trust me it's gonna matter a whole lot in the
[01:37:23] very near future that's power heavenly father we thank you for today we thank
[01:37:31] you for your word we thank you God that you are merciful and patient Lord all of
[01:37:39] us Lord were blinded deceived rebellious doing our own thing living in
[01:37:43] sin unbelief self-will the Lord you convicted us you broke us you drew us
[01:37:54] those of us that are saved and born again you you did it and we finally
[01:37:59] yielded but we have to keep yielding when I pray that people out there that
[01:38:05] have been watching or listening to this Lord if they've never been born again
[01:38:10] that they will truly surrender to Jesus as Lord and Savior and it'll be so
[01:38:17] thorough and complete and real that your Holy Spirit will bear witness and that
[01:38:24] they will be born again Lord I pray that I pray that for people more than
[01:38:31] anything else that they will know that they're saved they will know your presence
[01:38:40] they will know your voice they will know you and love you and want to do
[01:38:45] things your way when I pray this in in Jesus name that's all I have I'm gonna
[01:39:05] end that with that today y'all hugs the next before you leave
[01:39:12] amen love y'all
