- 0:01Speaker 1: The Week in Bible Prophecy, a Prophecy Watchers podcast.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Hello, I'm Gary Steerman and welcome to this Week in
- 0:11Speaker 2: Bible Prophecy. My guest is Tom Hughes, and Tom, welcome
- 0:16Speaker 2: to this Week in Bible Prophecy.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Hey, thank you, Gary. It's a delight to be here.
- 0:21Speaker 2: We have so much to talk about. Tom has written
- 0:24Speaker 2: a book called Marking the Masses. And you know, I've
- 0:28Speaker 2: seen a lot of books on Christian subjects in my life,
- 0:33Speaker 2: and this one catches the spirit of the times, I
- 0:37Speaker 2: think in a way that I haven't seen very much lately,
- 0:41Speaker 2: and I want to go into First of all, how
- 0:45Speaker 2: did you come up with the cover of the book,
- 0:48Speaker 2: because it really it's really suited to what's inside.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Well, working with the publisher, the publisher had this great idea.
- 0:57Speaker 3: I think it's brilliant idea.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Just looking at the whole book, the content of everything,
- 1:02Speaker 1: and how the whole concept of the book even came about.
- 1:06Speaker 1: And so just put in this question into an artificial
- 1:11Speaker 1: intelligence program and asked the question, show me what the
- 1:17Speaker 1: new world order might look like. And this is completely
- 1:21Speaker 1: AI generated, so it's not a compilation of what other
- 1:24Speaker 1: people have put together, nor anything like that. And what's
- 1:27Speaker 1: fascinating is on the cover you'll see a big pyramid
- 1:31Speaker 1: and you can see these heads.
- 1:32Speaker 3: You see these different lights.
- 1:34Speaker 1: I have a friend who worked for the military and
- 1:38Speaker 1: one of the the secret stuff. He said, he was
- 1:40Speaker 1: down in Antarctica and he goes, I was underneath things.
- 1:44Speaker 1: There's buildings, there's all kinds of things in the Antarctica
- 1:46Speaker 1: that people don't know about. He said, that pyramid on
- 1:49Speaker 1: the cover of your book. He goes, that looks so
- 1:53Speaker 1: eerily like what I've seen that they.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Have down there. Wow.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I said. I didn't know that until
- 2:00Speaker 2: he told me. And then we could go farther. But
- 2:03Speaker 2: then somebody would come in and knock on our door
- 2:06Speaker 2: and say, you can't talk about.
- 2:08Speaker 1: That's that's coming. We know that day's coming, don't we.
- 2:11Speaker 1: The knock is going to come on the door and
- 2:13Speaker 1: they're going to say, look the things that you guys
- 2:15Speaker 1: talk about, you aren't going to talk about this anymore.
- 2:18Speaker 2: To me, the cover looks like the Tower of Babel,
- 2:20Speaker 2: if the modern day Tower of Babel. And you know,
- 2:23Speaker 2: if you will, AI and the whole scientific system that
- 2:29Speaker 2: we have that's burgeoning right now, all of that reminds
- 2:33Speaker 2: me of the Tower of Babel. We're going to build
- 2:34Speaker 2: a tower that goes to the heavens and we'll be
- 2:37Speaker 2: able to converse with God on a face to face basis.
- 2:41Speaker 2: You know, there's that kind of hubris, there's that kind
- 2:44Speaker 2: of pride in what's going on today.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting that you mentioned that, because when we
- 2:50Speaker 1: think AI developing the cover, is just coming up with
- 2:54Speaker 1: the drawing for the cover. And by the way, it
- 2:56Speaker 1: wasn't Ai that came up with the book. That was me,
- 2:58Speaker 1: but it was well, I'm glad and I'm not artificially intelligent.
- 3:02Speaker 3: In fact, some people questioned my intelligence.
- 3:04Speaker 1: But when we look at it with this, if you think,
- 3:08Speaker 1: okay AI came up with this, well, what happened at
- 3:10Speaker 1: the Tower of Babel. That was Nimrod, the original type
- 3:14Speaker 1: of Antichrist, who says, hey, you guys, let's build a
- 3:19Speaker 1: tower to the heavens. And you know, you go into
- 3:21Speaker 1: the Tower of Babbel, which I do also talk about
- 3:24Speaker 1: in the book. But you go into it and you
- 3:26Speaker 1: look at it, what were they attempting to do? So
- 3:29Speaker 1: it's not a coincidence. AI would certainly know what the
- 3:33Speaker 1: Tower of Babel was just from all the information that's
- 3:37Speaker 1: out there and what the Tower of Babbel represented. Nimrod
- 3:41Speaker 1: is behind it. So guess what you come up with
- 3:44Speaker 1: this picture on the front. It doesn't look like the
- 3:47Speaker 1: Tower of Babel that was painted, you know, a couple
- 3:49Speaker 1: hundred years ago. This is a whole new it's a
- 3:51Speaker 1: whole new picture that it came up with.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Yeah, and the whole Tower of Babel concept is that
- 3:59Speaker 2: we can break through, if you will, a kind of
- 4:03Speaker 2: a barrier between heaven and Earth. And I think that
- 4:07Speaker 2: modern man has that same idea fermenting in his mind
- 4:13Speaker 2: these days.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Absolutely, So what's nimrod promise? Listen, we don't. It's really
- 4:20Speaker 1: it was, I'm God, We're building to the heavens. This
- 4:25Speaker 1: is who we are, this is who I am. And
- 4:27Speaker 1: there's this promise of peace. There's this promise of security
- 4:31Speaker 1: from Nimrod. I'm going to take care of you. All
- 4:34Speaker 1: is going to be good if you stay here with me, right,
- 4:37Speaker 1: So God split that up. So what do we have
- 4:39Speaker 1: the promise when it comes coming from artificial intelligence, now,
- 4:44Speaker 1: from the likes of people like you've all know, Harari
- 4:47Speaker 1: and the rest of the people in the Silicon Valley
- 4:50Speaker 1: and these globalist worldwide. The promise is same one in
- 4:55Speaker 1: the Garden of Eden. Listen, if you listen to me,
- 5:01Speaker 1: here's what God doesn't want you to know. You will
- 5:04Speaker 1: be like God and you will never die. So this
- 5:09Speaker 1: is the promise that is coming through what we see
- 5:12Speaker 1: the direction of technology, all the whole socioeconomic system that's developing,
- 5:19Speaker 1: all the cultural things that are developing. Everything is going
- 5:22Speaker 1: this way, and the promise. People are very selfish, they're
- 5:26Speaker 1: narcissistic by nature from birth, and because of that, this
- 5:29Speaker 1: feeds into people, just like the serpent with Eve, you'll
- 5:33Speaker 1: be like God. You won't surely die. What's the promise,
- 5:36Speaker 1: You're going to be like God. You're not going to
- 5:39Speaker 1: die if you get augmented with it.
- 5:40Speaker 2: And what you're talking about is genetic manipulation and through
- 5:46Speaker 2: artificial intelligence, through computer generation, and computer generation is developing
- 5:53Speaker 2: at such a rapid rate you can't measure it. I
- 5:55Speaker 2: mean every week it's a new thing. But AI, they're saying,
- 5:59Speaker 2: now can build supercells and super beings just by modifying
- 6:04Speaker 2: the human genome. And that does that not sound like
- 6:08Speaker 2: something that we've read in the Book of Revelation.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Oh, it absolutely does. I mean, when you start looking
- 6:14Speaker 1: at the Book of Revelation, you have so many different
- 6:16Speaker 1: dynamics that are in there, whether it be the demonic
- 6:20Speaker 1: things of Revelation chapter nine, but you walk right on
- 6:24Speaker 1: through the process and what happens to people when they
- 6:27Speaker 1: receive the mark of the Beast. Something happens to them.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Certainly there's the spiritual dynamic, because we know from Revelation
- 6:35Speaker 1: chapter fourteen, when a person receives the mark of the Beast,
- 6:38Speaker 1: the angel says, hey, there is no going back. You've lost.
- 6:43Speaker 1: There's no hope for salvation for you. Your place is
- 6:46Speaker 1: the lake of fire if you receive the mark of
- 6:48Speaker 1: the Beast, so and worship this image. So when you
- 6:51Speaker 1: look at that, it's a spiritual dynamic. And as many
- 6:55Speaker 1: people are pointing out now in the prophecy world, Bible
- 6:58Speaker 1: prophecy world, look with what's taking place with genetic engineering,
- 7:03Speaker 1: with technology, it looks like there's a good chance. And
- 7:07Speaker 1: I'd be one of those people that say, looks like
- 7:09Speaker 1: there's a real good chance you will be augmented. Something
- 7:12Speaker 1: is going to happen to you when you receive the
- 7:15Speaker 1: mark of the Beast. There's a spiritual dynamic. No doubt
- 7:18Speaker 1: about that. I wouldn't argue against that with anybody, but
- 7:21Speaker 1: it appears something else is also going on there, and
- 7:24Speaker 1: what we're witnessing certainly gives us that insight.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Well, if you modify a human being, you raise an
- 7:30Speaker 2: immediate question. Is that human being one of God's creatures
- 7:35Speaker 2: or is it one of the antichrist creatures? Words, would
- 7:38Speaker 2: that individual who receives a genetic moost, if you will,
- 7:44Speaker 2: be eligible to go to heaven? Or would that individual
- 7:47Speaker 2: be rendered forever out of God's realm, out of God's regime,
- 7:54Speaker 2: just ruled out by what he has done.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Well, of Pursu's DNA wouldn't have to be changed much
- 8:00Speaker 1: in order to mean they're no longer human.
- 8:02Speaker 3: And when you start.
- 8:03Speaker 1: Looking at it and you go their genetic code, so
- 8:07Speaker 1: you look at it, which, by the way, since there's
- 8:09Speaker 1: a code, it also implies there's a creator.
- 8:12Speaker 3: How could you have a code without a creator?
- 8:15Speaker 1: For all those you know people arguing there is no creator, well,
- 8:17Speaker 1: guess what it is. I believe this attempt by the
- 8:20Speaker 1: Devil himself, through his people that he works with on
- 8:24Speaker 1: this planet to make these amendments, And make no mistake
- 8:28Speaker 1: about it, when we listen to these.
- 8:33Speaker 3: Technocrats talk. This is what they want to do. They
- 8:37Speaker 3: want to change humanity.
- 8:39Speaker 1: In fact, going back to somebody like you Ball no
- 8:42Speaker 1: Harari where he says, you know, this is what they
- 8:45Speaker 1: look at deplorables, which I deal with in the book
- 8:48Speaker 1: to quite an extensive amount. Also when it comes to.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Well, you have a section of your book called Beastly Deceptions,
- 8:55Speaker 2: and I think that's kind of where we are. We're
- 8:57Speaker 2: talking about that, and it sends cold chills down your
- 9:02Speaker 2: spine when you think about these things.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Oh, it totally does you know. So the deceptions are
- 9:08Speaker 1: they come with all the promises of all these wonderful things.
- 9:12Speaker 1: But isn't this the way Satan appears as an angel
- 9:15Speaker 1: of light going to appear good?
- 9:17Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 9:18Speaker 1: And I think speaking of deception, Gary, also, there's this
- 9:23Speaker 1: concept that people think they're gonna recognize Antichrist he's gonna
- 9:27Speaker 1: have he's gonna have horns growing out of his head,
- 9:29Speaker 1: or he's gonna have a red cape on or something
- 9:32Speaker 1: like that. People, even in the Bible, Bible students, I believe,
- 9:37Speaker 1: for the most part, are pretty clueless just how radically
- 9:42Speaker 1: deceptive Satan and Antichrist are. When Antichrist appears on the scene.
- 9:48Speaker 1: He's gonna be so loved, so charismatic. People are gonna
- 9:52Speaker 1: be so drawn to him in a way that this
- 9:54Speaker 1: world never seen anybody like that.
- 9:55Speaker 3: Now, let me just interrupt you there.
- 9:57Speaker 2: I have my Bible open to chapter six of Rebel,
- 10:00Speaker 2: and the lamb opens the first seal, and we all
- 10:04Speaker 2: know what happens. A white horse comes forth. There's a
- 10:09Speaker 2: man sitting on a white horse. He's got a bow,
- 10:13Speaker 2: and he's got a crown, and he went forth conquering
- 10:17Speaker 2: and to conquer. And I think there's been a lot
- 10:20Speaker 2: of misunderstanding about what he does to conquer. The word
- 10:23Speaker 2: conquer is usually a war term, like using weapons, having armies.
- 10:29Speaker 2: But I'm beginning to think, no, that's not the way
- 10:31Speaker 2: he conquers. He's conquering from the inside out. And we're
- 10:35Speaker 2: seeing a lot of organizations develop worldwide that are designed
- 10:39Speaker 2: to do just that. Conquer society from the inside out
- 10:43Speaker 2: by changing relationships, by changing the way humans think react,
- 10:50Speaker 2: maybe even genetically. That's conquering to me.
- 10:55Speaker 1: It is in fact, when you look at this term
- 10:57Speaker 1: conquering and the concept of it in that context, I
- 11:02Speaker 1: think there's so many different things that are working together
- 11:05Speaker 1: right now to bring about this conquering of humanity without
- 11:09Speaker 1: firing a conventional weapon. And I think all of these
- 11:12Speaker 1: things are weapons that are being used against humanity, but
- 11:16Speaker 1: people don't know they are. So when we think of
- 11:20Speaker 1: the mind being changed, okay, we understand Elon Musk wants
- 11:24Speaker 1: to have neuralink implanted into people. And we see more
- 11:29Speaker 1: companies now, tech companies are saying, hey, we want to
- 11:32Speaker 1: do that to you.
- 11:33Speaker 3: We want to do that to you.
- 11:34Speaker 1: All these tech companies they want to be able to
- 11:37Speaker 1: augment human beings. So and to change our minds, even
- 11:41Speaker 1: change how we think. Okay, so with that's technology. But
- 11:45Speaker 1: what has happened in a very dramatic way, people's thinking
- 11:50Speaker 1: has been altered without any technology yet, just through as
- 11:56Speaker 1: we look at.
- 11:58Speaker 3: We look.
- 11:59Speaker 2: I'm holding one up right now, and everybody's got one
- 12:03Speaker 2: of these. It used to be called a telephone. It
- 12:06Speaker 2: used to sit on a tabletop and it rang and
- 12:10Speaker 2: you would walk across the room to answer it.
- 12:12Speaker 3: And it had a cord attached to it.
- 12:17Speaker 2: Cord attached to it. How far have we come? And
- 12:21Speaker 2: I watch people, Yeah, I'm kind of a people watcher.
- 12:24Speaker 2: I watch people driving, I watch people walking. I watch
- 12:27Speaker 2: them at the mall, and they're all walking with one
- 12:32Speaker 2: of these in front of their faces. Now, that's only
- 12:36Speaker 2: one step short of being connected internationally without having to
- 12:40Speaker 2: carry one of these devices. And that is frightening to me.
- 12:45Speaker 2: I must say, Oh it is.
- 12:49Speaker 1: We recognize from Revelation chapter thirteen there's going to be
- 12:52Speaker 1: no escape from the system. So what's interesting Since you
- 12:56Speaker 1: mentioned the phone, it's voluntary, and yet people can't separate
- 13:02Speaker 1: from it. Yeah, and with that, our minds, not yours
- 13:06Speaker 1: or mine, I don't mean us, but collectively, the minds
- 13:10Speaker 1: of the masses have been altered already without any implementation
- 13:16Speaker 1: yet of something being planted into our brain or without
- 13:21Speaker 1: a mark on our right hand or forehead. Yet the
- 13:25Speaker 1: minds of the masses are already altered to a place
- 13:30Speaker 1: of receiving all the different things that are coming.
- 13:33Speaker 3: There's so much deception, there's brainwashing.
- 13:35Speaker 1: The gas lighting has played a huge part in all
- 13:38Speaker 1: of this, and we can see it.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Yeah, and let me just add some of the things
- 13:44Speaker 2: that I've seen later. I see families with the children,
- 13:48Speaker 2: visit families sometimes, and they have little children a couple
- 13:52Speaker 2: of years old, three years old maybe, and the two
- 13:56Speaker 2: and three years old are have these devices, These that
- 14:01Speaker 2: we're talking about. I can't call them telephones anymore, but
- 14:04Speaker 2: they are those devices. Everything devices. They'll tell you where
- 14:08Speaker 2: to shop, they'll tell you how to drive, they'll tell
- 14:11Speaker 2: you where the traffic is blocked. They'll tell you how
- 14:15Speaker 2: to get virtually anything you're looking for. And a little
- 14:20Speaker 2: two and three year old children are now manipulating these
- 14:23Speaker 2: because they also have games on them, games for two
- 14:27Speaker 2: and three year old children, which immediately introduces a very
- 14:34Speaker 2: small child to a very large, large world. This never
- 14:39Speaker 2: happened before in the history of mankind.
- 14:43Speaker 3: Nothing like this has ever happened before.
- 14:45Speaker 1: I was watching a movie just recently, and it was
- 14:48Speaker 1: Christmas time, and it was an old movie, and I
- 14:51Speaker 1: was looking at the different toys that were in the movie,
- 14:54Speaker 1: and they were wood cars and wood trains and that
- 14:57Speaker 1: kind of thing, and I was thinking, Wow, how far
- 15:01Speaker 1: we have come from those days, those simple days. And
- 15:05Speaker 1: what's interesting you mentioned these gadgets in the hands of toddlers.
- 15:11Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg and what's the name Bill Gates have gone
- 15:15Speaker 1: on record to say they would never let their kids play.
- 15:17Speaker 3: With those things.
- 15:19Speaker 2: Isn't that interesting? I had forgotten about that. You're absolutely right.
- 15:22Speaker 2: I wonder why they were sipulation.
- 15:25Speaker 3: They knew that.
- 15:26Speaker 1: They know this, They absolutely know that they can manipulate
- 15:32Speaker 1: the brains of people, and they do it.
- 15:35Speaker 2: So when the Antichrist rides forth, conquering and to conquer.
- 15:39Speaker 2: And I'm still looking at my King James Bible here,
- 15:42Speaker 2: and the old word conquer it always implies, you know,
- 15:46Speaker 2: with a sword and a shield and a horse. Huh huh.
- 15:51Speaker 2: It's transcended those things. Conquering now is a message, it's
- 15:56Speaker 2: an image. It's scientific. It is what can I say,
- 16:01Speaker 2: beyond refusal if you are caught in the web, and
- 16:06Speaker 2: this new web of propaganda it's being created. And look
- 16:12Speaker 2: at the Internet as a communications device, and how it's
- 16:15Speaker 2: being censored, how it's being monitored by institutions all over
- 16:19Speaker 2: the world, how it's being used to regulate the marketplace,
- 16:24Speaker 2: not to mention, and I won't even talk about banking.
- 16:26Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's very frightening, what's happening to the
- 16:29Speaker 2: exchange of money. But it's all being integrated into one system,
- 16:35Speaker 2: if you will, And nobody's calling it the Antichrist system yet, Tom,
- 16:41Speaker 2: I don't.
- 16:41Speaker 1: Think they ever will unless they study the Bible, because
- 16:46Speaker 1: he's going to appear so delightful and so joyful and
- 16:49Speaker 1: everybody's friend. Now, it's interesting you mentioned the word conquered.
- 16:54Speaker 1: There would always appear as a military conquest, and it is.
- 17:00Speaker 1: But again, it's not bullets, it's not missiles, it's not tanks,
- 17:04Speaker 1: it's not laser beams. It's none of those things like
- 17:07Speaker 1: conventional warfare or just you know, somebody being shot on.
- 17:11Speaker 3: The streets, none of those things.
- 17:13Speaker 1: But it is a military operation, yes, make no mistake
- 17:17Speaker 1: about it. In fact, when we look at what's going
- 17:19Speaker 1: on with technology, DARPA is involved. DARPA is basically on
- 17:26Speaker 1: a branch, not in like a subcontractor for the US military,
- 17:32Speaker 1: I believe, the army. And so you look at it
- 17:35Speaker 1: and you go, wait a minute, for defense contractors, what
- 17:38Speaker 1: DARPA is, Well, DARPA is involved in Facebook. DARPA is
- 17:43Speaker 1: involved in Google. Well why is that? And you start
- 17:46Speaker 1: looking Regina Dugan, a big name for Facebook, she was
- 17:50Speaker 1: the head of DARPA. Well she she I mean you
- 17:55Speaker 1: start doing some a little bit of a deep dive
- 17:58Speaker 1: on what she's done. Listen, Facebook was and Mark Zuckerberg,
- 18:03Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg creates this thing called Facebook. It wasn't called
- 18:06Speaker 1: Facebook at the time. He creates these in college, and
- 18:10Speaker 1: DARPA gets he gets recruited by DARPA, and DARPA has
- 18:15Speaker 1: people at the top places in Facebook. It is a
- 18:19Speaker 1: These are military weapons that are being used, and it's
- 18:23Speaker 1: coming from all these different angles. The propaganda, as you mentioned,
- 18:28Speaker 1: all of this is planned. It's a planned. It's really
- 18:31Speaker 1: a planned a takeover of humanity. People are not going
- 18:35Speaker 1: to be allowed to think for themselves.
- 18:38Speaker 3: They're going to be controlled.
- 18:39Speaker 2: Well, I'm looking at Revelation thirteen and again and my
- 18:44Speaker 2: good old King James Bible, and we've read these things
- 18:47Speaker 2: for years. When I read verses sixteen seventeen, which i'll
- 18:51Speaker 2: do in just a moment, I know what you're going
- 18:54Speaker 2: to be thinking. You're going to be thinking. I've memorized this,
- 18:57Speaker 2: I know these verses. I know we've talked about him
- 19:00Speaker 2: for years. But just in light of our current conversation,
- 19:05Speaker 2: listen to this. And he causes us all both small
- 19:11Speaker 2: and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive
- 19:14Speaker 2: a mark in their right hand, their foreheads, or in
- 19:17Speaker 2: their foreheads, and that no man might buy or cells say.
- 19:23Speaker 2: He that had the mark or the name of the beast,
- 19:26Speaker 2: or the number of his name, so associating a number
- 19:30Speaker 2: and a name. And now I know what we used
- 19:34Speaker 2: to think forty years ago, fifty years ago when we
- 19:37Speaker 2: read these words, we're thinking something entirely different. Now, when
- 19:41Speaker 2: we think of these words.
- 19:43Speaker 1: We have we have so much more clarity, I think now,
- 19:48Speaker 1: which should be right. Because in the Book of Daniel,
- 19:53Speaker 1: Daniel's told by the Angel Daniel, chapter twelve, with Daniel's
- 19:57Speaker 1: trying to figure out the meaning of the last days
- 20:01Speaker 1: what's going on. Daniel's troubled by what he sees, and
- 20:04Speaker 1: the Angel tells him. The Angel says, listen, Daniel, these
- 20:08Speaker 1: aren't This isn't for you to know. It's for those
- 20:11Speaker 1: who are at the time of the end. Close up
- 20:14Speaker 1: the words seal the book until the time of Then
- 20:19Speaker 1: many will run to and fro and so forth. Then
- 20:21Speaker 1: the Angel goes on and says this which is really
- 20:23Speaker 1: interesting the wicked at that time. The wicked will see it,
- 20:29Speaker 1: but they will not understand. But the wise will see it,
- 20:32Speaker 1: and the wise will understand. The implication is that everybody's
- 20:36Speaker 1: going to know this weird stuff's going on. There's alarming
- 20:39Speaker 1: things that are taking place, Unnerving things are taking price.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Daniel was unnerved by what he saw. He was so
- 20:45Speaker 1: the angel brought him into the right perspective. So everybody's
- 20:49Speaker 1: going to tell, but the wicked will see it. They won't,
- 20:52Speaker 1: they won't connect everything, they won't understand, but the wise
- 20:56Speaker 1: will understand.
- 20:57Speaker 3: Well, how does that workout well at that time? As
- 21:01Speaker 3: is necessary.
- 21:01Speaker 1: The closer we get to the time of the end,
- 21:04Speaker 1: there's a that more clarity to be able to understand
- 21:08Speaker 1: what is going on. The word revelation means to unveil
- 21:11Speaker 1: or to reveal, as we know Daniel's told that's what's
- 21:14Speaker 1: going to happen in the tribulation period. I believe Gary,
- 21:19Speaker 1: that that number sixty sixty six people will get it.
- 21:22Speaker 1: People who are have been taught by someone like us,
- 21:26Speaker 1: people who've been told by all of our viewers out there,
- 21:30Speaker 1: the believers right that are watching this. They've been warning everybody.
- 21:34Speaker 1: We get raptured up. But those people we've been warning,
- 21:37Speaker 1: they're going to go. This is what my crazy friend
- 21:39Speaker 1: Gary told me about my crazy neighbor, and I get
- 21:43Speaker 1: it there. I believe that is specifically.
- 21:47Speaker 3: For them.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Now we can guess what the sixty six means now,
- 21:51Speaker 1: since sixty six means now.
- 21:52Speaker 2: Now, I deliberately did not read that verse. I left it,
- 21:55Speaker 2: But you jumped ahead, you jumped in there. No, And
- 21:58Speaker 2: I'm glad you did, because here's the next verse. In
- 22:02Speaker 2: verse eighteen of Revelation, Chapter thirteen says, here is wisdom.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Whoa three words in a sentence? Here is wisdom. Oh boy,
- 22:11Speaker 2: I'm listening. Let him that hath understanding. Count the number
- 22:17Speaker 2: of the beast, for it's the number of a man,
- 22:20Speaker 2: and his number is six hundred free score and six
- 22:23Speaker 2: in the King James version of the Bible. Now listen
- 22:29Speaker 2: to this. Here is wisdom. We're talking about number and
- 22:34Speaker 2: name being associated, and we're talking about the number of
- 22:40Speaker 2: the beast. Now, there's no better way in the world
- 22:46Speaker 2: to describe a system. In other words, what we've got
- 22:50Speaker 2: here is and I can remember thirty forty fifty years ago,
- 22:56Speaker 2: people talk about talked about computer system and if you
- 23:01Speaker 2: if you owned a corporation, you had to get a computer.
- 23:05Speaker 2: And usually you would contact a large company and you
- 23:08Speaker 2: would build a room and you would put a big
- 23:11Speaker 2: computer in there, and you would have computer operators. In
- 23:14Speaker 2: other words, you would have a system that control your corporation. Basically,
- 23:21Speaker 2: this is the same thing on a global scale, and
- 23:24Speaker 2: we are now capable of doing this sort of thing.
- 23:28Speaker 2: And here it has been lying, you know, peacefully in
- 23:31Speaker 2: the King James Bible for millennia. But only now can
- 23:36Speaker 2: we see this as a possibility and really understand what's happening.
- 23:41Speaker 1: And not only do we see it as a possibility,
- 23:45Speaker 1: like you know, we've been preaching on this for years now,
- 23:48Speaker 1: warning people this is coming, this is coming from the Bible,
- 23:51Speaker 1: says it.
- 23:52Speaker 3: Yeah, people calls nuts.
- 23:53Speaker 1: But now the secular world, yeah, recognizes it's not a possibility,
- 23:58Speaker 1: it's a reality.
- 24:00Speaker 3: It is.
- 24:00Speaker 1: And not only is it a reality, all of the databases,
- 24:03Speaker 1: everything that's absolutely necessary, it's already here.
- 24:07Speaker 3: They know it's already here. When is it going to
- 24:09Speaker 3: get rolled out?
- 24:11Speaker 2: It may be it is already.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I'm glad you brought that because I believe
- 24:17Speaker 1: realistically it already is, but we don't know about it yet.
- 24:21Speaker 1: And the reason I believe it already is rolled out.
- 24:25Speaker 1: All the databases, all the information collected, all the controlling,
- 24:28Speaker 1: all of the tracking. You know, we know the basics,
- 24:31Speaker 1: but the actual day where you worship the beast, it's
- 24:35Speaker 1: just it's just waiting for the beast to appear.
- 24:39Speaker 3: And the rapture to take place. In along these lines.
- 24:43Speaker 2: I'm glad to use the word beast, because I'm doing
- 24:46Speaker 2: something here with these four verses. I've read Chapter thirteen
- 24:52Speaker 2: of Revelation, Versus sixteen, seventeen eighteen. But here is verse fifteen,
- 25:00Speaker 2: the verse that precedes everything we've been talking about, and
- 25:03Speaker 2: I wanted to get your reaction to this. In particular.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Here it is verse fifteen. And he had power to
- 25:10Speaker 2: give life unto the image of the beast, that the
- 25:15Speaker 2: image of the bees should speak and cause that as
- 25:19Speaker 2: many as would worship the image of the bees should
- 25:21Speaker 2: be that would not worship the image of the bees
- 25:24Speaker 2: should be killed. Now, we've been talking about the image
- 25:29Speaker 2: of the beast for years and years and years. Right now,
- 25:32Speaker 2: when I read this, it makes chills go up and
- 25:35Speaker 2: down my spine, because we're capable of this what we
- 25:40Speaker 2: are now calling artificial intelligence. And to me, that is
- 25:44Speaker 2: describing to a t it is describing artificial intelligence.
- 25:49Speaker 3: It sure is.
- 25:50Speaker 1: If I go back, let's say, twenty years, in a
- 25:54Speaker 1: conversation twenty twenty five years, I remember talking with them
- 26:00Speaker 1: in about clones and I brought in the image of
- 26:03Speaker 1: the beast. You know what, maybe it'll be a clone, right,
- 26:07Speaker 1: but a clone is a human clone.
- 26:09Speaker 3: Whether or not it's a human or you know, it's
- 26:10Speaker 3: another story.
- 26:11Speaker 1: But still it's basically it's twenty five years ago, we
- 26:16Speaker 1: weren't really thinking about artificial intelligence, right, being implemented into
- 26:21Speaker 1: a clone. Well, now we look forget the clone, forget
- 26:24Speaker 1: the physical clone aspect of.
- 26:26Speaker 3: It, although it may be.
- 26:30Speaker 1: But ultimately what this is, it's artificial intelligence. It's hard
- 26:34Speaker 1: not to see it when you when you look at
- 26:36Speaker 1: it now. The power that this has, the image of
- 26:40Speaker 1: the beast has is remarkable when we see it, and
- 26:44Speaker 1: it's going to be so remarkable. It's going to be
- 26:47Speaker 1: able to call out death to those who don't worship.
- 26:50Speaker 1: It's going to be able to call out censorship of
- 26:53Speaker 1: everything that doesn't go along with the system. And another
- 26:58Speaker 1: thing that's interesting about this, when we hear a lot
- 27:01Speaker 1: now about artificial intelligence getting out of control and can
- 27:05Speaker 1: wipe out all of humanity. Two dynamics. Jesus warned that
- 27:10Speaker 1: unless the days were short and no flesh would be saved.
- 27:13Speaker 1: I used to think it was nuclear or something like that.
- 27:15Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think it's artificial intelligence as
- 27:18Speaker 1: learning there. And also interesting is we do know it
- 27:23Speaker 1: appears that there's two people that are going to be
- 27:26Speaker 1: able to control this artificial intelligence, the Beast and the
- 27:30Speaker 1: false prophet, because they seem to be over it because
- 27:36Speaker 1: they're not eliminated by the artificial intelligence. But anyone that
- 27:39Speaker 1: doesn't go along with the Beast is eliminated.
- 27:43Speaker 2: And by the way, this thing we're talking about here
- 27:46Speaker 2: called the image of the Beast in the good Old
- 27:49Speaker 2: King James Bible. I can visualize a television screen, and
- 27:56Speaker 2: I can visualize maybe a room with a chair and
- 28:02Speaker 2: a person sitting in that chair and looking out of
- 28:05Speaker 2: the screen at me. And I walk into the room
- 28:07Speaker 2: in front of that screen, and it says, hello, you're
- 28:11Speaker 2: Gary Steerman, aren't you. Yes, I am. How do you know? Well,
- 28:16Speaker 2: we have databases. Well I know who you are. Sit down,
- 28:19Speaker 2: I'd like to talk with you. And at that point
- 28:23Speaker 2: in time, I'm talking to a television screen. Am I
- 28:25Speaker 2: talking to the image of the Beast? Or is that
- 28:28Speaker 2: the archetype of what this thing would be like? Because
- 28:32Speaker 2: we're capable of doing that right now, We're totally capable
- 28:37Speaker 2: of it.
- 28:37Speaker 1: And so you look at where we are, the world is,
- 28:44Speaker 1: the technology is in place, and I believe what's going
- 28:48Speaker 1: on is Antichrist is not going to waste one second
- 28:52Speaker 1: building infrastructure. Satan knows he doesn't have any time, so
- 28:57Speaker 1: his man isn't going to appear as mister fix it here.
- 29:00Speaker 1: I am to fix it everything until all the infrastructure
- 29:03Speaker 1: has been late. So the infrastructure of technology is here.
- 29:07Speaker 1: I look at the at the last four years. What's
- 29:12Speaker 1: happened here in the world has exposed the weaknesses of
- 29:18Speaker 1: the global system. It's exposed the problems. It's exposed the problems.
- 29:23Speaker 1: There's there's certain churches that are problems. There's certain medias
- 29:27Speaker 1: that are a problem. There's certain groups of people that
- 29:29Speaker 1: are problems. Certain countries were more problems than others. Certain
- 29:33Speaker 1: areas of within certain countries or a problem. The last
- 29:36Speaker 1: four years exposed where the holes were in the in
- 29:42Speaker 1: the globalist system. And I look and think, regardless of
- 29:46Speaker 1: what people where, people were with the science.
- 29:50Speaker 3: Of that we were told over the last four years.
- 29:52Speaker 1: You know, I want to be careful on what I
- 29:54Speaker 1: say there, but regardless of which side you were on,
- 29:57Speaker 1: everything was exposed. The people, those who are going to
- 30:00Speaker 1: resist what the globalists are. Who the globalists are going
- 30:04Speaker 1: to have to shut down the type of media outlets
- 30:07Speaker 1: when the knock comes on our door, We've got to
- 30:10Speaker 1: shut these down.
- 30:11Speaker 3: We got to shut these down.
- 30:12Speaker 2: And so, if I may interrupt you, I'm holding your book.
- 30:14Speaker 2: I'm looking at the table contents. Chapter two. It's called
- 30:18Speaker 2: Beastly Deceptions. We're talking about the Mark of the Beast
- 30:21Speaker 2: right now? What is the mark's purpose? Because things really
- 30:25Speaker 2: get that bad? You asked that question as part of
- 30:28Speaker 2: your chapter two. And how will they sell the mark
- 30:31Speaker 2: to the public? And how will God view the mark?
- 30:35Speaker 2: Now you go through all of these questions the subject
- 30:39Speaker 2: we happen to be talking about right now, And I
- 30:42Speaker 2: got to tell you, I've got a little bit of
- 30:44Speaker 2: a chill going down my spine. Do we live in
- 30:47Speaker 2: that kind of world? And I'm thinking, yes, we do.
- 30:53Speaker 3: So.
- 30:54Speaker 1: I think it's a couple of different things. We're living
- 30:56Speaker 1: in it right now. Right we're not living in the
- 30:59Speaker 1: Trivia period. I believe we're going to be raptured. I
- 31:03Speaker 1: believe first Thessalonians is absolutely clear. I mean, the Bible
- 31:07Speaker 1: says the harpositle is going to happen. The rapture is
- 31:10Speaker 1: going to take place a comfort one another with these words.
- 31:13Speaker 1: So right now there's not a lot of comfort going
- 31:15Speaker 1: on unless you're thinking rightly about what that passage teaches.
- 31:20Speaker 3: And then you go okay.
- 31:21Speaker 1: And then first Thessalonians goes on to say, can't people
- 31:24Speaker 1: can't stop reading there at the chapter break, because it's
- 31:26Speaker 1: all in the same context. Chapter five, Paul writes, and
- 31:31Speaker 1: he says, listen, they when they say peace and safety,
- 31:34Speaker 1: sudden destruction comes upon them.
- 31:37Speaker 3: They shall not escape.
- 31:38Speaker 1: So we have two different groups of people, those who
- 31:40Speaker 1: are caught up raptured, yes, and those who aren't. It's
- 31:43Speaker 1: very clear in the context. So we're going to be
- 31:46Speaker 1: raptured before the tribulation begins. However, we are definitely living
- 31:50Speaker 1: through right now. This is an amazing generation to be
- 31:54Speaker 1: alive in because we are living out this beast system
- 32:00Speaker 1: that is coming about. And as Daniel was unnerved by
- 32:04Speaker 1: the things that he saw, there's a lot of things
- 32:07Speaker 1: that can unnerve you if you don't have the right perspective.
- 32:12Speaker 1: I got to wake up every day and remind myself,
- 32:14Speaker 1: all right, think about Jesus, think about where we're going,
- 32:17Speaker 1: because if I just look at the news. I think
- 32:19Speaker 1: I would lose my mind.
- 32:22Speaker 2: Now I got to interrupt you right there because you
- 32:24Speaker 2: said something that I want you to speak to in
- 32:28Speaker 2: more detail. You've been a pastor teacher for many, many
- 32:32Speaker 2: years in a city in Arizona and out there you know,
- 32:38Speaker 2: beautiful land and wonderful people, and you have been a
- 32:43Speaker 2: pastor and you accomplished a lot as a pastor. But
- 32:49Speaker 2: something is moving you to the next level, if you will,
- 32:53Speaker 2: or to another level. And you have seen something that
- 32:58Speaker 2: I think other people need to see. What is that
- 33:02Speaker 2: thing that has moved you in the direction you've gone?
- 33:05Speaker 1: Sure, So, first off, a pastor in California, Now Arizona.
- 33:10Speaker 3: No, I'm sorry, so no, no, don't be sorry, don't
- 33:13Speaker 3: I mean it's hard, you know people see.
- 33:17Speaker 2: I went back to Arizona and then Arizona's nice too.
- 33:22Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of nice There's a lot of
- 33:24Speaker 1: wonderful places out there. California is the place that everybody's
- 33:27Speaker 1: running from. But with that, so, I've been a lead
- 33:31Speaker 1: pastor for two decades. Prior to that, I was a
- 33:36Speaker 1: pastor on at Greg Glory's Church for several years, been
- 33:41Speaker 1: in ministry for many years, about thirty years and I'm
- 33:46Speaker 1: still in ministry, but I recently stepped down from my
- 33:50Speaker 1: position as a senior pastor at the church that I've
- 33:53Speaker 1: that I that I've was the pastor at, in order
- 33:57Speaker 1: to pursue the things that we are doing right here
- 34:00Speaker 1: full time. I believe Gary, we cannot waste any more time.
- 34:04Speaker 1: And I'm looking at it going, Okay, God's opening doors.
- 34:08Speaker 1: I'm thinking I have to press as hard as I
- 34:10Speaker 1: possibly can. People need to be warned, they need to
- 34:13Speaker 1: hear about this. So I'm doing everything I can. Our
- 34:16Speaker 1: staff and crew are doing everything that we can. You
- 34:19Speaker 1: guys are here at Prophecy Watchers. There's no time to
- 34:22Speaker 1: be wasted anymore. And I would I want to encourage everybody.
- 34:25Speaker 1: We see the finish line, all of us would say.
- 34:28Speaker 1: In the Prophecy world, we all say we see the
- 34:30Speaker 1: finish line. Well, the Apostle Paul Liken the Christian life
- 34:36Speaker 1: to running the race to somebody running track, and what
- 34:41Speaker 1: happens when somebody runs track, when they come around the
- 34:45Speaker 1: last turn, no matter how long the race is, when
- 34:49Speaker 1: they come around the last turn, they see the finish line,
- 34:51Speaker 1: what does every runner do? Every single runner runs harder
- 34:56Speaker 1: and faster than they did the entire previous part of
- 34:59Speaker 1: the race. At the fin when they see the finish line,
- 35:02Speaker 1: they go as hard as they can. The guy in
- 35:04Speaker 1: last place goes as hard as he can, even if
- 35:07Speaker 1: he knows he's not gonna win, he goes as hard
- 35:09Speaker 1: as he can. You never ever ever see a professional
- 35:14Speaker 1: or even an amateur runner see the finish line and go, man,
- 35:18Speaker 1: I think I'm just gonna pull up a chair here
- 35:21Speaker 1: and watch all the runners go by. Never but in
- 35:25Speaker 1: the Christian community people do that, And in the prophecy
- 35:28Speaker 1: community especially, we should be the ones that are pressing
- 35:33Speaker 1: harder than everybody else to the finish line. We can't
- 35:37Speaker 1: waste any more time. You can't pull up the lazy
- 35:39Speaker 1: boy chair and just sit there and go, I'm just gonna.
- 35:43Speaker 3: Watch and take in.
- 35:44Speaker 1: No, you're gonna take in everything that you can in
- 35:47Speaker 1: order to give it out because people need to hear
- 35:51Speaker 1: about the hope of Jesus Christ. You stalk up your mind,
- 35:56Speaker 1: you stalk up your shelves, you stalk up your bookcases,
- 35:59Speaker 1: you stock up everything you can in order to give
- 36:01Speaker 1: out and to give out everything that you possibly can.
- 36:05Speaker 2: Absolutely, and I think that's a wonderful if you will,
- 36:11Speaker 2: urging on your part to Christians, we really need to
- 36:17Speaker 2: get serious right now because things are happening exponentially, which
- 36:21Speaker 2: is the way they happen in science. You know, scientific
- 36:25Speaker 2: breakthroughs such as we're seeing right now, in communications, in computing,
- 36:31Speaker 2: in war machinery, you name it. We're going exponentially. And
- 36:38Speaker 2: the Church needs to move exponentially as well.
- 36:41Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 36:42Speaker 1: And also, you know, the Church has really been exposed
- 36:45Speaker 1: over the last few years and even out with what's
- 36:49Speaker 1: going on with Israel. For it's like the genuine church
- 36:55Speaker 1: and the fake church, the genuine believer.
- 36:58Speaker 3: And those who are just church. Uh, and.
- 37:04Speaker 1: We're being exposed for what side we are really on?
- 37:07Speaker 1: Are we really on the biblical side of Jesus or
- 37:11Speaker 1: are we just playing a part taking the nice passages,
- 37:15Speaker 1: pretending like everything is going to be normal, go back
- 37:20Speaker 1: to Everything is not going back to normal. We are
- 37:22Speaker 1: not going back to where this world used to be.
- 37:25Speaker 1: Everything is racing towards this finish line. And if somebody
- 37:30Speaker 1: doesn't see it, it's it's either because they're just blind
- 37:33Speaker 1: spiritually or they choose to be blind to the facts
- 37:37Speaker 1: that they see in the world that they're living in.
- 37:40Speaker 2: You know, as you were talking and I was listening
- 37:42Speaker 2: to you at the same time, I was looking through
- 37:44Speaker 2: the table contents of your book, marking the masses, and
- 37:49Speaker 2: something that I had missed before was as looking at
- 37:53Speaker 2: these chapter titles and subtitles. Looking at this, I noticed
- 37:59Speaker 2: a kind of urgency, if you will, that I had
- 38:02Speaker 2: not seen before in the way that you develop your questions.
- 38:10Speaker 2: Will the antichrist system be totalitarian? How bad will it be?
- 38:15Speaker 2: Will it replace cash? What about peace and safety? What
- 38:18Speaker 2: about convenience and ease? What about financial rescue? What about
- 38:24Speaker 2: storage of data that tracks you everywhere you go? And
- 38:27Speaker 2: I'm just reading these subtitles as you were talking, and
- 38:30Speaker 2: there is a sense of urgency there, and I have
- 38:33Speaker 2: felt that same thing myself.
- 38:35Speaker 1: Oh, I totally see it as an urgent message that
- 38:40Speaker 1: needs to get out there. And again, I just would
- 38:44Speaker 1: encourage everybody to press forward as hard as they can.
- 38:49Speaker 1: You listed several different questions. I just think, will it
- 38:52Speaker 1: be totalitarian? Of course it will be. Will there be
- 38:54Speaker 1: an end of cash?
- 38:55Speaker 3: Of course?
- 38:56Speaker 1: Interesting on the cash system, and that we hear about
- 39:01Speaker 1: digital currency, central bank digital currencies and so forth. I
- 39:04Speaker 1: have not heard a person yet, no matter what political
- 39:07Speaker 1: side they're on or religious site. I haven't heard a
- 39:10Speaker 1: person yet say to me, you know, you know what
- 39:12Speaker 1: I hope. I hope that these globalists get rid of
- 39:16Speaker 1: cash and we all go to digital currency and are controlled.
- 39:20Speaker 1: Nobody is saying that people overall aren't excited about a
- 39:25Speaker 1: lot of these plans. But again, the problem is they
- 39:29Speaker 1: don't think through it enough to go through the Bible.
- 39:32Speaker 1: You go to the Bible, you start realizing, hey, I've
- 39:35Speaker 1: got answers, Hey I've got hope. Because the reality of
- 39:39Speaker 1: it is people can tell something is wrong and they
- 39:42Speaker 1: don't like it, and too many are willing to just
- 39:45Speaker 1: go along with it, and deception. That deception is going
- 39:49Speaker 1: to only get far, far worse than it is today.
- 39:53Speaker 2: Hey, you know, I would urge our audience to go
- 39:57Speaker 2: to Revelation chapter thirteen and just reread it again. And
- 40:00Speaker 2: in light of what we now know is happening in
- 40:02Speaker 2: the world today, we used to read it as something
- 40:06Speaker 2: in the far far future that we really don't know
- 40:10Speaker 2: what is talking about. You know, it's talking about the
- 40:14Speaker 2: mark of the beast and buying and selling, and is
- 40:17Speaker 2: talking about the image of the beast and all of that.
- 40:22Speaker 2: We really didn't know, we had no imagination about what
- 40:25Speaker 2: all that meant, but now we do. I mean, it's
- 40:29Speaker 2: looming into clear and plain view. And I think this
- 40:34Speaker 2: should I think motivate us as Christians, really get out
- 40:38Speaker 2: there and, as you said, work harder than ever before.
- 40:42Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 40:43Speaker 1: I think of the words of Peter two Peter chapter three,
- 40:46Speaker 1: where he writes about people in the last days, and
- 40:50Speaker 1: they walk according to their luss? And in that what
- 40:54Speaker 1: do they do? Their scoffers in the last days? Walking
- 40:57Speaker 1: according to their own luss? Where's the promise of this coming?
- 41:02Speaker 1: Our fathers used to talk about this, and Peter calls
- 41:07Speaker 1: them ignorant.
- 41:10Speaker 3: Ignorant scoffers.
- 41:12Speaker 1: They don't they The concept is they choose not to. No,
- 41:20Speaker 1: they or they choose to even though they know what
- 41:23Speaker 1: the truth is. They choose to choose to believe the lie. Yes,
- 41:28Speaker 1: and why will he starts out with They walk according
- 41:32Speaker 1: to their own less whether it be the perversions of
- 41:34Speaker 1: the world, or the less of money, or the pride
- 41:37Speaker 1: of life, whatever it is, right, they walk according to
- 41:40Speaker 1: those things. I don't want to hear about your Jesus,
- 41:44Speaker 1: And so they are ignorant. They choose not to hear
- 41:48Speaker 1: these things. And then Peter goes to talk about creation.
- 41:52Speaker 1: They deny that even though they can see the evidence
- 41:55Speaker 1: of it, so they know the truth. And then he
- 41:57Speaker 1: talks about there's gonna be new heaven and a new Earth.
- 42:00Speaker 1: And then he tells the believer, what.
- 42:01Speaker 3: Should we be doing?
- 42:03Speaker 1: Since you know all these things are true, all these
- 42:07Speaker 1: things are going to come about. There's going to be
- 42:08Speaker 1: new heaven and new earth. All Bible prophecy is going
- 42:11Speaker 1: to be fulfilled. Therefore, what manner of persons ought you
- 42:14Speaker 1: to be in a holy conduct and godliness hastening the
- 42:18Speaker 1: day of the coming.
- 42:19Speaker 3: Of the Lord.
- 42:20Speaker 1: And the term hastening it all implies this is what
- 42:24Speaker 1: we're supposed to be doing.
- 42:26Speaker 2: Tom Hughes marking the masses. And you have caught the
- 42:31Speaker 2: spirit of what's going on right now. I think in
- 42:35Speaker 2: a way that you don't waste time when you read
- 42:38Speaker 2: this book. It's packed with information. Could be a little scary,
- 42:45Speaker 2: but you know what, I'm not. I'm not afraid at
- 42:49Speaker 2: all because I have the Bible and the good old
- 42:53Speaker 2: King James. Of course I read modern versions too, but
- 42:58Speaker 2: the King James Bible speaks as clearly to the twenty
- 43:02Speaker 2: first century as any modern language translation, and it's what
- 43:09Speaker 2: it's saying is that now we're getting so close, we
- 43:13Speaker 2: can understand Bible prophecy in a way we never have before.
- 43:18Speaker 3: Oh.
- 43:19Speaker 1: Absolutely. You know when I even when I wrote the book,
- 43:22Speaker 1: I wanted to make sure it moved fast, but had
- 43:25Speaker 1: information in it that people needed. You know, you mentioned
- 43:28Speaker 1: it being scary. I didn't think of it as being scary,
- 43:31Speaker 1: but people have told me that, but I cannot. Again,
- 43:35Speaker 1: my mind constantly goes back to John the Baptist. He
- 43:38Speaker 1: warned of judgment. He is scared some of the religious people,
- 43:42Speaker 1: but you know what, the purpose of the Bible is
- 43:45Speaker 1: very clear. He warned of judgment in order to preach
- 43:49Speaker 1: mercy and grace.
- 43:50Speaker 3: And that was my goal in the book.
- 43:51Speaker 1: The Gospels included at the end, and I look at
- 43:55Speaker 1: it as something that's necessary to wake up the masses
- 43:58Speaker 1: because I did it in a way that wasn't preachy
- 44:01Speaker 1: or religious. I wanted it to get in the hands
- 44:04Speaker 1: of the masses of people. Tom Hughes, God speed to you.
- 44:07Speaker 1: Keep up the good work, and I can't wait for
- 44:10Speaker 1: your next book, which I'm sure you're working on right. Yes, yes,
- 44:14Speaker 1: I am working on it. I prefer to be raptured first,
- 44:17Speaker 1: but if we're not raptured, then we'll have the next.
- 44:20Speaker 2: Book come in this week in Bible Prophecy, I'm Gary Steerman.
- 44:24Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us.
