• 0:03
  This is Living Waters of Grace, the teaching ministry of Clark
• 0:08
  Wofford, senior pastor of Calvary Chapel of Westmoreland,
• 0:12
  County of Greensburg, PA. Now here's Pastor Clark as he
• 0:16
  continues teaching through God's Word.
• 0:37
  If we can eliminate the Holy Trinity and replace it with the
• 0:42
  Unholy Trinity, then the powers that be on the earth at that
• 0:47
  particular time will be able to bring astounding deceptions and
• 0:52
  confusion to everyone who's on the face of the earth.
• 0:55
  This particular beast speaks like a dragon, and basically
• 0:59
  he's speaking the same messages of the first beast who
• 1:02
  blasphemes. Got the whole idea and it won't
• 1:05
  be in your face initially, it'll be more subtle.
• 1:09
  My wife loves to watch dramas on TVI find it funny that something
• 1:13
  like that is appealing but nonetheless what I find even
• 1:15
  crazier is how 1 little lie can cause someone to believe
• 1:19
  something that isn't true. These people go around spreading
• 1:23
  gossip to try to win people over to believe their story.
• 1:27
  In today's message, Pastor Clark warns you of the lies that the
• 1:31
  enemy will spread. He wants to make sin not seem
• 1:35
  that bad. So what he does is he'll slowly
• 1:38
  drip it into everything that you consume.
• 1:42
  Now here's Pastor Clark in the Book of Revelation chapter 13
• 1:46
  with today's edition of Living Waters of Grace.
• 1:50
  Revelation chapter 13, verse 11. Then I saw another beast coming
• 1:55
  up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb, and spoke
• 1:58
  like a dragon. And he exercises all the
• 2:01
  authority of the first beasts in his presence, and causes the
• 2:04
  earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast.
• 2:08
  Beast whose deadly wound was healed.
• 2:10
  He performs great signs, so that he even makes the fire come down
• 2:14
  from heaven on the earth and the sight of men.
• 2:17
  And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs,
• 2:21
  which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling
• 2:24
  those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who
• 2:28
  was wounded by the sword and lived.
• 2:30
  He was granted power to give breath to the image of the
• 2:33
  beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and
• 2:36
  'cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast
• 2:39
  to be killed. He causes all, both small and
• 2:42
  great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on
• 2:45
  their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may
• 2:48
  buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the
• 2:52
  beast, or the number of his name.
• 2:54
  Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding
• 2:57
  calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a
• 3:00
  man. His number is 666.
• 3:04
  Today we're going to examine the issues of what's going to happen
• 3:10
  in this world in these days ahead, what's happening in our
• 3:14
  culture today. There's a dumbing down of
• 3:16
  America and it starts, unfortunately, in many of the
• 3:20
  churches in our country where there's a movement away from the
• 3:24
  teaching of the Bible and more of a movement into what's hip or
• 3:29
  what's cool or what people seem to be interested in.
• 3:33
  And what happens as people move away from the Scriptures in the
• 3:36
  Bible, they move more into this philosophy of what we call
• 3:40
  humanism. And humanism is you would say
• 3:43
  today, hey, Clark, this is my opinion or this is what I think
• 3:46
  about life and this is who I think God is, if there's even a
• 3:50
  God that exists. And this is my truth.
• 3:53
  And and then I would tell you, well, this is my truth.
• 3:56
  And we would shake hands and say, well, that's cool.
• 3:58
  You know, your truth is your truth.
• 3:59
  My truth is my truth. So we can all get along with
• 4:02
  each other, right? This agree to disagree and and
• 4:05
  just move on. And that's unfortunately what's
• 4:07
  happening in churches nowadays. There's a movement away from
• 4:10
  historical perspective regarding the second coming of Christ, end
• 4:14
  times, final judgment. I mean, there's churches today
• 4:16
  that are teaching that there's other ways to heaven than Jesus
• 4:20
  Christ. Churches that teach that there
• 4:21
  is no literal hell, there is no punishment for those who die
• 4:25
  without Christ. And so what's happening as you
• 4:28
  see the culture changing, it's becoming more fashionable to not
• 4:34
  be spiritual in regard to knowing Jesus Christ, being
• 4:38
  spiritual in regard to like whatever you want to believe,
• 4:41
  Buddha, Krishna, a new age, whatever, that's okay.
• 4:44
  But in regard to bringing up the name of Jesus Christ, that
• 4:47
  that's verbatim, that's almost getting to the point of being
• 4:52
  culturally unacceptable, right? Or politically incorrect.
• 4:56
  That's sort of where things are right now.
• 4:58
  And so as a result of that, there's this dumbing down.
• 5:01
  Now, if you as a student of the Scriptures aren't astute
• 5:04
  yourself to study these things yourself, you're going to be
• 5:08
  swept down the same path that the majority of people out there
• 5:12
  today are on. Just do is your own survey with
• 5:15
  people you work with or people you go to school with or your
• 5:18
  neighbors, just that, you know, like curiosity.
• 5:20
  Hey, what do you think about the Bible?
• 5:21
  And they'll they'll give you some pretty bizarre thoughts.
• 5:23
  Who do you think Jesus Christ is?
• 5:25
  What do you think about the end of the world?
• 5:27
  What do you think about you think Christ is going to come
• 5:29
  back again and it'll stand you at where people's thoughts and
• 5:34
  minds are regarding this subject.
• 5:36
  And so you can see when Jesus speaks to the apostle Paul and
• 5:40
  says he's going to send God will send a strong of delusion to
• 5:43
  people that they'll believe a lie rather than the truth.
• 5:46
  The culture is already being set up, right to understand this
• 5:50
  concept of whatever you want to believe is OK.
• 5:54
  Relativism is also called truth is relative.
• 5:58
  Your truth is your truth. My truth is my truth.
• 6:01
  But we can't go by people's opinions.
• 6:03
  We have to go by this book. This is the truth.
• 6:07
  Jesus is the truth. He said I am the way, I am the
• 6:10
  truth. I am the light.
• 6:11
  No man comes to the Father but through me.
• 6:14
  All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is
• 6:17
  profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction and
• 6:21
  instruction and righteousness that the people of God may be
• 6:24
  thoroughly furnished. In other words, being equipped
• 6:26
  and prepared to know the difference between a lie,
• 6:30
  deception, and the truth. So we look at verse 11 here.
• 6:34
  It's speaking about this beast coming up out of the earth.
• 6:37
  There's two beasts, one in this section of Scripture today that
• 6:40
  comes up out of the earth and one that comes up out of the
• 6:42
  sea. This particular beast is
• 6:45
  different than the first beast that came out of the sea.
• 6:48
  This second beast is coming up out of the earth and he has a
• 6:52
  lamb like appearance. Here it says he has horns like a
• 6:55
  lamb and spoke like a dragon. The first beast was described as
• 7:00
  looking like a leopard. This beast is described as being
• 7:05
  some similar to the likeness of a lamb.
• 7:07
  This particular beast is subordinate to the first beast.
• 7:10
  If you look in verse 12, it says this beast exercises all the
• 7:15
  authority of the first beast in his presence and causes the
• 7:18
  earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast whose
• 7:22
  deadly wound was healed. So the focus of this individual
• 7:26
  is to pay homage to the Antichrist.
• 7:30
  This particular beast we're reading about here is referred
• 7:33
  to also as the false prophet, and he'll be the person that
• 7:36
  does all the PR work for the the Antichrist.
• 7:39
  Now we see in verse 11 it talks about this beast having two
• 7:43
  horns and we believe that these horns represent power in two
• 7:47
  different realms, political power and religious power.
• 7:53
  The last days will represent A1 world church and a one world
• 7:58
  government. It's amazing right now the
• 8:00
  negotiations that are going on around the world with world
• 8:03
  powers and G20 summits and that kind of stuff.
• 8:05
  There's an issue right now, as I talked last week about the
• 8:09
  problem with the euro and the dollar and the 1:00 and all
• 8:12
  these different currencies. And until there's really one
• 8:15
  currency, we're going to have chaos economically.
• 8:18
  Now the most pragmatic thing to do from a financial perspective
• 8:22
  logically would be to have a world currency so that the
• 8:26
  markets can be balanced. But the intention of that isn't
• 8:29
  to cause prosperity in the sense of long term Kingdom of Earth
• 8:34
  type mentality, but it's to give someone the ability to
• 8:38
  politically roll the financial markets from one location and
• 8:42
  that we'll all be in submission to that new particular financial
• 8:46
  setup. Also the one world church,
• 8:48
  there's this movement today to integrate all spirituality
• 8:51
  together. You know, it doesn't matter if
• 8:54
  you're Hindu or Islam or Buddhist or, you know, a
• 8:57
  Christian. There's this mindset now that if
• 9:00
  we could just have one church and everybody would sort of get
• 9:03
  along together and we decide like, what are the main things
• 9:06
  we should all agree on? Well, we should love one another
• 9:09
  and we shouldn't hate and we shouldn't steal and we shouldn't
• 9:11
  kill. Those are pretty obvious in in
• 9:13
  most world religions. But the idea of eliminating the
• 9:18
  concept or the truth of a real God and a real Savior and a real
• 9:23
  Holy Spirit, if we can eliminate the Holy Trinity and replace it
• 9:28
  with the unholy Trinity, then the powers that be on the earth
• 9:34
  at that particular time will be able to bring astounding
• 9:37
  deceptions and confusion to everyone who's on the face of
• 9:41
  the earth. This particular beast speaks
• 9:44
  like a dragon, and basically he's speaking the same messages
• 9:47
  of the first beast who blasphemes God.
• 9:51
  The whole idea, and it won't be in your face initially, it'll be
• 9:54
  more subtle. We have to give equal time to
• 9:58
  other world religions. We have to allow the Dalai Lama
• 10:02
  to have his ability to speak to the United Nations.
• 10:06
  We have to have the Enman, the Islamic leader, have the ability
• 10:10
  to communicate his vision for World Peace in these last days.
• 10:14
  And so all these different entities will be rising up to
• 10:17
  have a a vocal word and they'll basically by their character and
• 10:22
  their demeanor and by their denial of who Jesus Christ is be
• 10:27
  blaspheming the truth of who who God is in Christ.
• 10:31
  The name of Christ will become more and more commonly used just
• 10:35
  in swear words and not worship jokes movies.
• 10:38
  I'm astounded if you go to a secular movie nowadays.
• 10:41
  And I don't go to too many of them unless I really screen what
• 10:44
  they're about and and what the verbiage is.
• 10:46
  And most of them unfortunately aren't worth a whole lot, but
• 10:49
  it's astounding. You can be going to a good movie
• 10:51
  and say, well, this movie has some depth and some meaning and
• 10:54
  it's interesting. And they have to use the Lord's
• 10:56
  name in vain. It's so out of context at this.
• 10:58
  Like it's like, you know, people, they take their
• 11:01
  fingernails on a chalkboard. You know how that makes you feel
• 11:03
  like weird? You know, it's like it does hit
• 11:05
  you that way. If you love Christ, you can't
• 11:07
  stand hearing his name used in vain.
• 11:10
  It's just so inappropriate. And and you'll say, well, why
• 11:12
  would they have to have that word in the midst of the movie?
• 11:15
  Well, the media in the fallen world has an agenda and every in
• 11:19
  the music and the movies and the literature is to defame the
• 11:23
  person of Jesus Christ and to blasphemy him.
• 11:26
  The second beast is also called the false prophet in Revelation
• 11:30
  1613 chapter 19 verse 20 and chapter 20 verse 10.
• 11:35
  He's distinct from the first beast, the Antichrist and the
• 11:39
  dragon, who is Satan himself. Now with the dragon, we see the
• 11:46
  beasts rising from the sea, who is referred to as the
• 11:49
  Antichrist. And then we see as we're
• 11:52
  studying here in this section of scripture, the false prophet.
• 11:55
  This beast comes up out of the earth again, the unholy Trinity,
• 12:00
  the dragon is the anti father Satan, the beast.
• 12:05
  Coming up out of the sea is the Antichrist.
• 12:07
  And the beast here we're reading about today coming up out of the
• 12:10
  land is the anti spirit, the false prophet.
• 12:14
  So we look in verse 12 through 15 now and we see the job
• 12:17
  description of this second beast.
• 12:19
  And this is what his responsibility is.
• 12:22
  It says he exercises the authority of the first beast.
• 12:25
  He's the spokesperson for this Antichrist.
• 12:28
  He causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the
• 12:32
  Antichrist, the first beast whose deadly wound was healed.
• 12:35
  Now, we talked last week, there's some kind of issue that
• 12:38
  occurs with this first beast that is world known, some kind
• 12:42
  of perhaps attack on his life to kill him or to destroy him and
• 12:48
  he somehow miraculously comes back to life.
• 12:50
  It's so amazing that CNN and Fox and every major news network
• 12:55
  will be talking about this all over the world.
• 12:57
  You know, we'll all be talking, of course, we won't be here, but
• 12:59
  people on the face of the earth at that time will be all talking
• 13:02
  about the excitement of what has just happened.
• 13:05
  It says this false prophet will perform great signs so that he
• 13:09
  even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth and then the
• 13:13
  sight of men. He will deceive those who dwell
• 13:15
  on the earth by the signs which he was granted to do in the
• 13:18
  sight of the beast. He'll tell those who dwell on
• 13:21
  the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the
• 13:24
  sword and lived. He was granted power to give
• 13:26
  breath to the image of the beast, and the image of the
• 13:29
  beast should both speak and cause as many as would not
• 13:31
  worship the image of the beast to be killed.
• 13:34
  This is his job description. He exercises all the authority
• 13:39
  of the first beast, the Antichrist, and the second beast
• 13:42
  is truly the false prophet. And his goal is to lead the
• 13:46
  whole world to worship the Antichrist.
• 13:49
  Satan, you might sit here and you you read this and and I have
• 13:53
  the same concept of times. How in the world can anybody be
• 13:57
  so stupid or so uninformed to worship something like this?
• 14:02
  I mean, is that your first thought when you you hear this
• 14:05
  stuff? Who in the world this is?
• 14:07
  This is insane. Well, when Stalin and Hitler
• 14:10
  were risen up to power, who would have ever Like when you
• 14:14
  look back historically now, how could you be so blind to pay
• 14:18
  homage to these world leaders? I remember as growing up as a
• 14:23
  kid and they would show you pictures of China, right?
• 14:25
  Mao Zedong, his poster was everywhere, right?
• 14:28
  Thousands of people will be in the square paying homage and
• 14:30
  worshipping him is like their God Hitler.
• 14:35
  They they gave him worship by raising their hand and saluting
• 14:38
  him, saying hi, Hitler. And and so we can look back in
• 14:42
  history to see how people can be deceived.
• 14:45
  And today we look at these different religions that are out
• 14:48
  there, humanism, there's no God, but you are your God.
• 14:52
  You are your own God. That's what the humanists will
• 14:54
  say. Complete denouncing of the
• 14:57
  authority of a creator. The public schools have pushed
• 15:00
  out right the concept of a creator God.
• 15:04
  Our kids are being indoctrinated in the public school systems by
• 15:09
  a system of religion called humanism, right?
• 15:13
  It's so clear there is no prayer anymore in the public schools.
• 15:18
  You know, even to the point that they don't want to pledge the
• 15:20
  allegiance because you have to say 1 nation under God.
• 15:24
  Well, you might offend someone because we think of that God in
• 15:28
  this country is based upon a Christian God, the Lord Jesus
• 15:31
  Christ. But now what about the Muslim
• 15:34
  that's going to school or the Hindu or the atheist?
• 15:38
  And now you have these cults and these occult movements and it's
• 15:41
  a big deal. Spirituality without the Holy
• 15:44
  Spirit. Go into Barnes and Noble or
• 15:46
  borders and this look in the New Age philosophical section, it's
• 15:50
  huge. It's growing month after month.
• 15:53
  The titles are very alluring. Find the God in you.
• 15:57
  Become a God yourself. Find total freedom, freedom
• 16:02
  without the creator God. They don't tell you that, but
• 16:06
  they want you to not even acknowledge him.
• 16:08
  So it's a spirituality without this, the Holy Spirit, it's a
• 16:11
  counterfeit spirituality. Now it's interesting to me if
• 16:15
  you bring up Jesus Christ and any kind of discussion with
• 16:18
  anybody that doesn't know him, do you get a good response?
• 16:21
  Usually it's like a down or if you're to party and you're
• 16:24
  talking to people or to work event, you know, and you're
• 16:27
  asking how your life's going. Oh, I got to tell you this cool
• 16:29
  thing that the Lord did for me. They're like, excuse me, let's
• 16:32
  change the subject. I remember years ago, I'm
• 16:36
  interested in world religion. So I've hung out with different
• 16:38
  people. And one time I went to this
• 16:40
  Buddhist sitting group and they knew I was a Christian.
• 16:43
  And then at first they were thinking like, why is this guy
• 16:45
  here? Is he going to like start like
• 16:47
  evangelizing us or whatever, you know?
• 16:49
  And so I watched what they were doing and then paid attention.
• 16:52
  And then they're trying to get you to sit down and be this like
• 16:54
  real still and empty your mind, which is not a biblical concept.
• 16:58
  You empty your mind, you're going to allow it to be open up
• 17:00
  to other spirits, right? But anyway, at the end of this
• 17:03
  discussion, I was talking to the leader.
• 17:05
  This is this so-called guru and he's acting real loving and real
• 17:09
  calm and everybody's in unity and there's World Peace and man,
• 17:14
  like, you know, this is just like awesome.
• 17:16
  We're in Nirvana here. And so I'm sitting down with
• 17:18
  him. I said, you know, whenever I sit
• 17:20
  down and I want to be still, I like to think about Jesus.
• 17:23
  Oh, you can't do that. Well, why not?
• 17:26
  Well, you know, if you do that, then your mind's real closed and
• 17:29
  you can't be free. And, and I said, well, Jesus
• 17:31
  said that you know the truth and the truth shall set you free.
• 17:34
  And he became this loving, peaceful, gentle when his big
• 17:38
  robe and real calm. He became so like in my face, It
• 17:42
  was like he turned into a demon and he's worshipping demons.
• 17:46
  He doesn't even know about it. And so it's it's fascinating
• 17:49
  that you bring up this name, Jesus Christ, and you'll see the
• 17:53
  hostility in the world today. Now in verse 13, we see what
• 17:58
  this person does. He performs great signs and
• 18:01
  wonders. There's a big movement today,
• 18:02
  these modern evangelists on TV, some of them, not all of them,
• 18:06
  but some of them have one agenda, right?
• 18:09
  Come to our meeting in Pittsburgh, Signs and wonders
• 18:13
  and people like get their ears up.
• 18:14
  Wow, that sounds cool signs and wonders.
• 18:16
  I like miracles and I want to see signs and I want to see
• 18:19
  proof. And so all this kind of stuff.
• 18:21
  Well, this this false prophet is going to have the ability to do
• 18:25
  signs and wonders that people on the earth at that time are going
• 18:28
  to think that have to be from God.
• 18:31
  And these signs and wonders will support his false teachings.
• 18:35
  Now one of the signs that it says he does is that fire comes
• 18:39
  down and he makes this event occur like Elijah did.
• 18:47
  Now think about Elijah. He's dealing with the prophets
• 18:50
  of Baal, the New Agers at that particular time that didn't
• 18:54
  believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob fighting against
• 18:58
  the ungodly influence of idolatry and immorality and and
• 19:02
  this disgustful things that the nation was experiencing at that
• 19:05
  time. And he's got a responsibility
• 19:09
  called by God to do some amazing things.
• 19:12
  And this is in first Kings chapter 1836 and seven it says,
• 19:16
  and it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening
• 19:19
  sacrifice that Elijah the prophet came near and said, Lord
• 19:23
  God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob or Israel, let it be known this
• 19:28
  day that you are God in Israel and I am your servant, and that
• 19:33
  I have done all these things at your word.
• 19:37
  Hear me, O Lord, hear me, that this people may know that you
• 19:40
  are the Lord God and that you have turned their hearts back to
• 19:44
  you again. So what happened was it was an
• 19:47
  amazing situation. The fire came down from heaven.
• 19:50
  It consumed the evening sacrifice and the wood on the
• 19:55
  altar and the stones and the dust, and it even licked up all
• 19:59
  the water that was in the trench.
• 20:01
  Not one drop of water was left. Now the deception of the
• 20:05
  Antichrist, if you turn to 2nd Thessalonians chapter 2, you're
• 20:10
  going to see that it's very interesting in what he's going
• 20:13
  to do. Second Thessalonians chapter 2
• 20:17
  verse 9, it says the coming of the lawless 1 is according to
• 20:20
  the working of Satan all with all power signs and lying
• 20:24
  wonders and with all unrighteousness deception among
• 20:28
  those who perish because they didn't receive the love of the
• 20:31
  truth that they might be saved. So all the people that are on
• 20:33
  earth at the time are going to be set up to believe this lie
• 20:36
  and this deception. If you don't have any background
• 20:39
  in the Scriptures, you don't know the truth about God and his
• 20:42
  Kingdom. If you're a human being at the
• 20:44
  time, who wouldn't at that time say, wow, did you see what
• 20:47
  happened? This has got to be like God and
• 20:50
  this is wonderful and look at the miracles he's doing and it
• 20:53
  says they will be deceived by these lying signs and wonders
• 20:58
  because they're perishing, meaning they're on their way to
• 21:01
  hell. Why?
• 21:01
  Because they didn't receive the love of the truth that they
• 21:05
  might be saved. Now, if you're here today and
• 21:07
  you don't know who Jesus Christ is, I implore you to receive Him
• 21:11
  as your Savior so you don't have to be left here to deal with
• 21:15
  these things in the last days or they're going to be horrendous.
• 21:19
  Come to Christ so you can be saved.
• 21:20
  He's the only one who can save you.
• 21:22
  And it says for this reason, God will send them a strong delusion
• 21:25
  that they should believe a lie, that they all may be condemned
• 21:29
  who did not believe the truth but had pleasure and
• 21:33
  unrighteousness. So there's this movement of
• 21:35
  supernaturalism today, the counter and copy the movements
• 21:40
  of God in the Scriptures. The Lord warns us in Exodus
• 21:45
  Chapter 7 through 9. Aaron, remember when he was
• 21:48
  working with Moses to lead the children of Israel out of Egypt,
• 21:52
  he performed miracles by God. It was very clear and up to a
• 21:57
  point. These miracles were matched by
• 22:00
  the magicians in Egypt, weren't they?
• 22:02
  Didn't that amazed you that they were able to copy and do some of
• 22:05
  the same miracles up to a point until they just became too
• 22:08
  staggering and too miraculous that truly only God could do?
• 22:13
  So we also see there's a warning from God regarding false
• 22:17
  prophets. Turn to Deuteronomy.
• 22:18
  And I think it's very important that we get on the same page
• 22:21
  regarding what is a true prophet versus a counterfeit false
• 22:25
  prophet. And these days that we live,
• 22:27
  there's a lot of people that are claiming that they're prophets
• 22:30
  and the Bible tells us the prophet has to be 100% accurate
• 22:34
  and correct. If they're not correct and you
• 22:37
  stone them. Some of us unfortunately, have
• 22:40
  been involved in church movements who've had false
• 22:44
  prophets come in and we've been told to accept everything they
• 22:47
  say. And if they make a mistake,
• 22:49
  well, they only got a couple things wrong.
• 22:50
  They got a couple things right. The Bible is clear.
• 22:53
  A false prophet is a false prophet.
• 22:55
  A true prophet is a true prophet.
• 22:57
  And this is what Deuteronomy, this is what it says in
• 23:00
  Deuteronomy chapter 13 verse one.
• 23:02
  If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams,
• 23:06
  and he gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or the
• 23:09
  wonder comes to pass at which he spoke to you, saying, let us go
• 23:12
  after other gods which you have not known, and let us serve
• 23:16
  them. And that's the goal of the
• 23:17
  Antichrist and the false prophet, to get the people to
• 23:20
  move away from the true God. It says you shall not listen to
• 23:23
  the words of that prophet or that dreamer or dreams of
• 23:27
  dreams. For the Lord your God is testing
• 23:29
  you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your
• 23:32
  heart and with all your soul. You shall walk after the Lord
• 23:36
  your God and fear him, and keep his commandments and obey His
• 23:39
  voice. You shall serve him and hold
• 23:41
  fast to him. But that prophet or that dreamer
• 23:45
  of dreams shall be put to death, because he has spoken in order
• 23:48
  to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of
• 23:52
  the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the House of bondage.

• 24:01
  We're in the Book of Revelation, and we find it fascinating how
• 24:04
  influential and involved the angels are in this book.
• 24:09
  They bring about whatever it is that God has instructed them to
• 24:13
  do, but it's through their actions that much of the
• 24:17
  judgements come on the earth. The angels are in submission to
• 24:20
  God as their authority, but He utilizes them in unique ways
• 24:25
  throughout this book. Like angels have a specific
• 24:28
  purpose from God, you have a unique purpose and plan too.
• 24:32
  God wants to use you in your life as a testimony to others
• 24:36
  and to bring others who are currently lost into the fold of
• 24:39
  God. God would love more than
• 24:42
  anything for all who are willing to come to Him for salvation,
• 24:46
  but He wants it to be their choice, not a forced situation.
• 24:51
  This is the way God works, not forcing himself on anyone, but
• 24:55
  giving each person free will. If you're interested in learning
• 24:59
