- 0:11Speaker 3: Hello His Hog.
- 0:16Speaker 2: Lost Vegas.
- 0:27Speaker 4: Yo, Yo Yo, what's good? What's good? Family? Welcome back
- 0:32Speaker 4: to his High Radio podcast, your place for real talk,
- 0:37Speaker 4: real scripture, and real Kingdom movement. I'm your host, I'm
- 0:44Speaker 4: your brother, Miss and his Happen. Today we're breaking down
- 0:48Speaker 4: the heavy chapter Revelation Chapter eleven. This one is all
- 0:55Speaker 4: about witnesses, warfare, and the return of worship in the
- 1:02Speaker 4: midst of judgment. But before we dig in, there's a
- 1:10Speaker 4: new segment that we introduced to the show called the
- 1:15Speaker 4: Accountability Partner. We're gonna go over that. The reason for
- 1:19Speaker 4: this is because a lot of people who are going
- 1:25Speaker 4: to church, we're very religious, active in whatever type of
- 1:36Speaker 4: devotion or service that they dedicated their lives to. I'm
- 1:43Speaker 4: not gonna make it in because they have no accountability
- 1:47Speaker 4: in their life, but because it don't take time out
- 1:50Speaker 4: to do a self check looked under the hood. The
- 1:54Speaker 4: Bible tells us to judge ourselves to see whether or
- 1:57Speaker 4: not we are in the faith. One of the ways
- 2:00Speaker 4: to do that is to guard our hearts, because out
- 2:04Speaker 4: of it are the issues of life. We have to
- 2:07Speaker 4: and grabh the word just able to save our souls.
- 2:12Speaker 4: So we have to see what's in our hearts. What
- 2:14Speaker 4: kind of habits have I developed? Are they godly? Are
- 2:19Speaker 4: they ungodly? And everyone has areas where we struggle. But
- 2:25Speaker 4: this particular thing that I like to do, is this
- 2:30Speaker 4: one of those sins that will keep me out of
- 2:32Speaker 4: the kingdom, And that is something we need to do
- 2:36Speaker 4: on a daily basis self check. So if you download
- 2:39Speaker 4: that It's Our Radio app, go to the top left
- 2:43Speaker 4: menu to click on podcasts and go to my podcast
- 2:49Speaker 4: It's our Radio. You will find the accountability form there
- 2:54Speaker 4: where you will read it. You check in as often
- 2:58Speaker 4: as you need to, once a week, twice a week,
- 3:03Speaker 4: and let us know if you need a follow up.
- 3:05Speaker 4: If you have an area where you're struggling, you need prayer,
- 3:08Speaker 4: you need somebody to check in on you, then yes,
- 3:13Speaker 4: still out that form and praise God who on your
- 3:22Speaker 4: way to total recovery. Sometimes in life we all need help,
- 3:30Speaker 4: but there's nothing wrong with it, hey man. So before
- 3:35Speaker 4: we jump everything off, let's go before the Father and prayer.
- 3:39Speaker 4: Heavenly Father, we thank you for another day, Thank you
- 3:43Speaker 4: that we woke up today. Thank you for your grace
- 3:46Speaker 4: and your mercy. Thank you God, that we can spend
- 3:49Speaker 4: time in your word, get some wisdom and insight. And
- 3:54Speaker 4: we thank you, Father God, that we are even willing
- 3:57Speaker 4: to be a family and hold each other accountable. Let
- 4:01Speaker 4: this not just be another religious action or duty. Let
- 4:06Speaker 4: us not take this lightly, But Father God, help us
- 4:09Speaker 4: to be helpers one to another. And the Holy Spirit
- 4:13Speaker 4: you are our helper. And we asked this in Jesus' name.
- 4:19Speaker 4: Hey man, and hey man, Hallelujah to the King. Okay,
- 4:29Speaker 4: so accountability partner. When you think you're saved but you're not.
- 4:36Speaker 4: Today's featured sin is lying in deception. Now, Revelation twenty one,
- 4:44Speaker 4: verse eight says all liars shall have their part in
- 4:49Speaker 4: the lake which burneth by a brimstone. Lying may be common,
- 4:56Speaker 4: but God calls it condemn a God is going to
- 5:02Speaker 4: condemn every lie. Now, why does God take lying so seriously?
- 5:11Speaker 4: Lying is the native language of Satan? John Chapter eight,
- 5:17Speaker 4: verse forty four. When he lies, he speaks his own
- 5:23Speaker 4: native language. Every time we lie, whether it covers sin
- 5:30Speaker 4: or to try to get ahead or to avoid conflict,
- 5:35Speaker 4: we're aligning with darkness, not the light. Lying destroys trust
- 5:42Speaker 4: in relationships, leadership, and the church. Even little lies reveal
- 5:50Speaker 4: deeper problems. It could be fear, pride, or even manipulation.
- 5:58Speaker 4: How do we break free? It's a lying tongue. Need
- 6:04Speaker 4: to confess the habit. There's down one nine tells us
- 6:08Speaker 4: that if we confess our sins, he is faithful and
- 6:12Speaker 4: just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us
- 6:14Speaker 4: from all unrighteousness. Pent and speak truth consistently Ephesians four
- 6:22Speaker 4: twenty five. Now I'm just gonna give you these scriptures
- 6:26Speaker 4: on this segment. Be prepared and ready to write them down.
- 6:30Speaker 4: Have your bibles, your highlighters, and no paths so you
- 6:33Speaker 4: can fall back on them, especially if this is what
- 6:36Speaker 4: you struggle with. Walk in integrity, even when it costs you.
- 6:43Speaker 4: I write down Proverbs to nine. God wants truth in
- 6:50Speaker 4: our inward parts Psalms fifty one six. If relying to
- 6:56Speaker 4: others end up lying to our selves and eventually believe
- 7:02Speaker 4: the lie that we're okay with God when in reality
- 7:10Speaker 4: we're not. Now this is you, belove it. I'm gonna
- 7:18Speaker 4: pray right now, and I'm gonna be transparent. This is
- 7:23Speaker 4: something that I've struggled with. I've noticed this and my
- 7:29Speaker 4: dad and I noticed this myself I'm very tempted, and
- 7:34Speaker 4: my lie is to avoid conflict or sometimes just to
- 7:40Speaker 4: try to get ahead. I'd lie that way too, So
- 7:45Speaker 4: it's still a temptation for me in an intense situation
- 7:51Speaker 4: or if I want to avoid conflict. I also deal
- 7:55Speaker 4: with people pleasing, So if I want to please someone
- 8:00Speaker 4: or if I don't want someone to you know how
- 8:03Speaker 4: we are and we want people to look up to us. Hey,
- 8:06Speaker 4: I'm mister his hot man. You know I got a
- 8:08Speaker 4: nonprofit and I did this, I had a club and
- 8:10Speaker 4: this and that and the other. Yeah, you want people
- 8:13Speaker 4: to hear the good things. But when how about when
- 8:20Speaker 4: minister his top makes a mistake. How about when his
- 8:24Speaker 4: hop needs to be confronted about sinning his life. Well,
- 8:29Speaker 4: he's tempted to lie and make it seem like it's
- 8:31Speaker 4: not as bad as you make it sound. And you
- 8:36Speaker 4: can ask my wife sometimes and his situations, I have
- 8:42Speaker 4: circum to this lying spirit. So if that's your struggle,
- 8:51Speaker 4: then let's pray this prayer together, Father God, we come
- 8:55Speaker 4: afore you confessing our sin. We know, Father God, your
- 9:00Speaker 4: word says that no liar will tarry in your sight,
- 9:04Speaker 4: Father God, we repent. We ask for forgiveness. Please forgive
- 9:07Speaker 4: us for every lie that we've stolen, every time we
- 9:11Speaker 4: deceived to get ahead or to avoid conflict. Father God,
- 9:18Speaker 4: forgive us. Lord, we renounce the devil's language. Father God,
- 9:25Speaker 4: we only want to speak your language. Lord, So I
- 9:29Speaker 4: forget Give us for any hidden secret, any hidden lie,
- 9:34Speaker 4: any hidden action. Help us to get it right, Help
- 9:39Speaker 4: us to get back on the path of recovery. Oh God,
- 9:43Speaker 4: we ask God, do not allow this sin to drag
- 9:47Speaker 4: us to the pits of hell. O. God, for Jesus,
- 9:51Speaker 4: you came to seek and to save those who are lost.
- 9:56Speaker 4: Watch us by your blood, deliver our tongues, Oh God,
- 10:04Speaker 4: that we may speak truth consistently in Jesus' name. Amen
- 10:10Speaker 4: and Amen, See that's how that works, your accountability partners.
- 10:18Speaker 4: I do invite y'all to keep me accountable. Amen. I
- 10:22Speaker 4: want to be so far away from miss temptation to
- 10:25Speaker 4: where it's not even a thought anymore. Amen. And we
- 10:30Speaker 4: all have areas where we're struggling, and that's why we
- 10:33Speaker 4: are coming together. Like I said, if you need a
- 10:38Speaker 4: phone call or if we need to connect and pray
- 10:43Speaker 4: and deal with this stuff, that's what the segment is for.
- 10:47Speaker 4: So go to the fore fill it out. So let's
- 10:51Speaker 4: do this thing, all right, So let's jump into the
- 10:57Speaker 4: teaching for today relation chapter eleven, and then look at
- 11:07Speaker 4: the two witnesses. Then I was given a read like
- 11:16Speaker 4: a measuring ride, and the angels stood saying, rise and
- 11:21Speaker 4: measure the Temple of God the alter those who worship
- 11:27Speaker 4: there now in our earlier episodes of this book, earlier
- 11:34Speaker 4: in this chapter, I believe it was chapter four where
- 11:40Speaker 4: John the Apostle is taken to heaven and a vision,
- 11:45Speaker 4: and we discuss how the earthly Tabernacle or the earthly
- 11:51Speaker 4: temple was a replica of the heavenly Temple. This is
- 11:57Speaker 4: how the throne room of Heaven looks. Remember there were
- 12:02Speaker 4: souls that were under the altar. They were not allowed
- 12:06Speaker 4: to enter in heaven until the number of their brothers
- 12:11Speaker 4: were killed, and then we see them in chapter seven.
- 12:15Speaker 4: They were given white robes and they were given positions
- 12:20Speaker 4: to serve God in his temple, and they were worshiping God.
- 12:24Speaker 4: So here we see this is the earthly temple. The
- 12:29Speaker 4: angel is telling him to measure it. About the significance
- 12:34Speaker 4: of this is because right now, if you look in
- 12:39Speaker 4: the nation of Israel, presently there is no temple there,
- 12:45Speaker 4: so there's a prophecy, and a lot of Bible scholars
- 12:49Speaker 4: say that there will be a third temple that should
- 12:52Speaker 4: be built in Jerusalem. And reason why this is significant
- 12:57Speaker 4: for us as believers, as we know, is that Jesus
- 13:01Speaker 4: is coming soon once we see the third Temple built
- 13:05Speaker 4: or under construction, because we know during the tribulation the
- 13:11Speaker 4: Antichrist is gonna desecrate this temple. He's gonna go into
- 13:15Speaker 4: the Holy of Holies and demand worship from the nation
- 13:19Speaker 4: of Israel, that they will know that they were deceived
- 13:24Speaker 4: once it's happened. So now this angel is given instructions
- 13:28Speaker 4: to measure the temple, and those who worship there first
- 13:35Speaker 4: two will leave out the court which is outside the temple,
- 13:42Speaker 4: and do not measure it, for it has been given
- 13:46Speaker 4: to the gentiles, and they will tread the Holy city
- 13:52Speaker 4: underfoot for forty two months. Now. The reason why the
- 13:57Speaker 4: outer court is not measured because a lot of commentators
- 14:03Speaker 4: say that the outer court is by the Dome of
- 14:07Speaker 4: the Rock. It's been given to the Muslim nations. See
- 14:12Speaker 4: if you would build on the Dome of the Rock
- 14:15Speaker 4: or any Muslim so called holy site, it would be
- 14:20Speaker 4: all out holy war with the nation of Israel. And
- 14:26Speaker 4: so that's a dilemma right now. But the Antichrist is
- 14:30Speaker 4: gonna seem like a genius. He's gonna come up with
- 14:34Speaker 4: the solution to where they can actually build a temple.
- 14:38Speaker 4: And it's gonna not be on the dome of the Rock.
- 14:42Speaker 4: It's gonna be they say that facing east I believe
- 14:46Speaker 4: was Solomon's temple, and so they're gonna find the real
- 14:52Speaker 4: location of it, and they're gonna be able to build,
- 14:55Speaker 4: and they're gonna be able to appease the Muslims, but
- 14:59Speaker 4: they're not going to be able to utilize the outer court.
- 15:03Speaker 4: The outer court would be given to the Gentiles. And
- 15:08Speaker 4: so we know that Salmon built the temple, he Herod
- 15:12Speaker 4: built the temple, and Jesus even in the Gospels, taught
- 15:15Speaker 4: his disciples that not one stone will be left upon another.
- 15:20Speaker 4: The Roman government destroyed the temple in seventy a d
- 15:27Speaker 4: to crush a rebellion, a rising up that was happening
- 15:32Speaker 4: in Jerusalem at the time, and no temple has been
- 15:36Speaker 4: built since. And this is very significant. Israel is longing
- 15:43Speaker 4: for this temple because they feel like they're not even
- 15:47Speaker 4: a nation without of it, without it, the temple has
- 15:50Speaker 4: always been the center of their worship and their identity. Amen.
- 16:03Speaker 4: And then the forty two months says three and a
- 16:05Speaker 4: half years. We know that the Great Tribulation is gonna
- 16:09Speaker 4: last for seven years, and the last three and a
- 16:12Speaker 4: half years is gonna be intense persecution. And it says,
- 16:20Speaker 4: and I will give power in verse three, and I
- 16:23Speaker 4: will give power to my two witnesses, and they will
- 16:27Speaker 4: prophesy one thousand, two hundred and sixty days clothed in sackcloth.
- 16:36Speaker 4: Now these two witnesses, some say Moses and Elijah, only
- 16:41Speaker 4: because of the power, the supernatural power that they manifest.
- 16:46Speaker 4: They will shut up Heaven from rain for three years.
- 16:52Speaker 4: You know that will cause a drought. You know everything
- 16:56Speaker 4: is already there's already a scarcity in the earth, but
- 16:59Speaker 4: imagine not getting rained for three years. And also they
- 17:04Speaker 4: were able to spit fire straight out of their mouths, right,
- 17:09Speaker 4: They're able to strike the earth as often as a desire,
- 17:13Speaker 4: just like Moses did. These are the two olive trees
- 17:20Speaker 4: and the two lamps stands standing before the God of Heaven.
- 17:25Speaker 4: And if anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from
- 17:29Speaker 4: their mouth and devours their enemies. Now imagining all the Christians,
- 17:36Speaker 4: all the believers that are going to lose their lives.
- 17:39Speaker 4: They're in the Great tribulation, right, think about the altar
- 17:43Speaker 4: and the souls that were under it, asking God, when
- 17:47Speaker 4: are you going to avenge us our blood for those
- 17:50Speaker 4: who live on earth. So there was a large number
- 17:54Speaker 4: of people who were slain, and so the earth is
- 17:58Speaker 4: definitely the world's gonna be bloodthirsty to kill every believer
- 18:05Speaker 4: that is on the earth. But these two witnesses are
- 18:09Speaker 4: gonna be protected supernaturally. They're just gonna spew fire out
- 18:13Speaker 4: of their mouth and devower the enemies a man, this
- 18:18Speaker 4: is gonna be an amazing time, and if anyone wants
- 18:21Speaker 4: to harm them, he must be killed. In this manner,
- 18:28Speaker 4: those have power to shut up heaven so that no
- 18:32Speaker 4: rainfalls in the days of their prophecy. That they have
- 18:37Speaker 4: power over waters to turn them into blood. And see
- 18:41Speaker 4: that's why some say is Moses turning water into blood
- 18:45Speaker 4: and to strike the earth with all plagues as often
- 18:49Speaker 4: as a desire. That's Moses and shut up heaven as
- 18:52Speaker 4: Elijah something even say maybe even Enoch. A lot of
- 18:57Speaker 4: people believe that Enoch went to heaven. Then he did
- 19:01Speaker 4: not die. Back in Genesis, it says that Enoch please God,
- 19:06Speaker 4: and he was no more like he was caught up,
- 19:10Speaker 4: almost like a foreshadowing of the rapture. Right, we are
- 19:17Speaker 4: pleasing God. Our life is dedicated and committed into pleasing God,
- 19:24Speaker 4: and so we are waiting to be caught up to
- 19:27Speaker 4: be with the Lord as well. And the thought is
- 19:30Speaker 4: is that everyone must die. It's appointed unto me and
- 19:33Speaker 4: wants to die. And after that the judgment. So Enoch
- 19:40Speaker 4: possibly could still be in heaven right now and never
- 19:43Speaker 4: went through the process of natural death, and even also
- 19:49Speaker 4: Elijah was caught up in fiery chariots. Now, according to
- 19:55Speaker 4: the biblical record, these are the two people who never
- 20:02Speaker 4: died and they're in heaven right now, and so it
- 20:07Speaker 4: could be those two. There's a lot of speculation. Like
- 20:11Speaker 4: I said, this is just my opinion, but do your
- 20:15Speaker 4: own study, dive into it so that you can get
- 20:18Speaker 4: your own understanding of that. But either way, this is
- 20:24Speaker 4: going to be an amazing time. Then verse seven, when
- 20:30Speaker 4: they finish their testimony, the beast that ascends out of
- 20:35Speaker 4: the bottomless pit. You know that this is saying themselves
- 20:40Speaker 4: will make war against them, overcome them, and kill them.
- 20:47Speaker 4: Now we know that they cannot be a part of
- 20:50Speaker 4: the church, so they have to be Old Testament prophets
- 20:57Speaker 4: right because Jesus said that the gates of Hell cannot
- 21:01Speaker 4: prevail against the Church, and I think that is significant.
- 21:06Speaker 4: The word of God cannot be broken. And you think
- 21:09Speaker 4: about the times we're living in now, think about the
- 21:12Speaker 4: state of the church today. A lot of pastors and
- 21:15Speaker 4: preachers would even admit that the church seems to be defeated.
- 21:20Speaker 4: The church seems to be anemic, and it seems like
- 21:25Speaker 4: a lot of ways the church has been overcome or
- 21:28Speaker 4: infiltrated by the culture compromised. But if you look closely,
- 21:36Speaker 4: there is a section of the church that the gates
- 21:40Speaker 4: of Hell has not prevailed against. That is the true church.
- 21:45Speaker 4: So if you're in a church in a case of
- 21:47Speaker 4: hell has prevailed, then that's not the true church. Look
- 21:51Speaker 4: for the church that has not been conquered or compromised
- 21:56Speaker 4: by the world. That's why you cannot throw the base
- 22:00Speaker 4: be out with the bathwater. God will always have his
- 22:02Speaker 4: remnant and there will always be a faithful church on
- 22:07Speaker 4: this earth. But these two witnesses, this beast will send
- 22:12Speaker 4: out of the pits, and he is going to kill them,
- 22:18Speaker 4: and their dead bodies will lie in the streets of
- 22:22Speaker 4: the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom in Egypt.
- 22:28Speaker 4: Now we could definitely say that this is America today.
- 22:33Speaker 4: These spirits are trying to overcome our land. We're also
- 22:38Speaker 4: our Lord was crucified. Now we know that he was
- 22:41Speaker 4: crucified in Jerusalem, the capital city of Israel, on the
- 22:46Speaker 4: hill of Gelgatha. Then those from the people's tribes, tongues,
- 22:53Speaker 4: and nations will see their dead bodies three and a
- 22:56Speaker 4: half days. Now that we think of the resurrection of Christ, right,
- 23:03Speaker 4: three days and three nights. But these guys were a
- 23:07Speaker 4: little longer three and a half. And that's actually pretty interesting.
- 23:11Speaker 4: Maybe somebody can do a study on that and hit
- 23:15Speaker 4: us in a life chat. Why three and a half, oh,
- 23:20Speaker 4: I can speculate and guests, maybe because they don't want
- 23:23Speaker 4: to do it in three days like our lord, So
- 23:28Speaker 4: three and a half because they're going to come back
- 23:31Speaker 4: to life, as we read, and not allow their bodies
- 23:37Speaker 4: to be put into graves, and those who dwell on
- 23:41Speaker 4: the earth will rejoice over them, make mary and send
- 23:45Speaker 4: gifts to one another. That sounds like Christmas, doesn't wow.
- 23:50Speaker 4: These people hate gods so much that they're happy when
- 23:55Speaker 4: God's prophets get slain and killed. Like, these guys are
- 24:00Speaker 4: literally celebrating this beast that comes out of the bottomless pit,
- 24:08Speaker 4: this murderous beast that kills God's prophets. This is like
- 24:12Speaker 4: Christmas to them. Man, be careful who you celebrate. That's crazy,
- 24:24Speaker 4: all right, gets one to another because these two prophets
- 24:29Speaker 4: tormented those who dwell on the earth. So these two
- 24:34Speaker 4: prophets tormented the people. Now imagine this. Imagine we just
- 24:39Speaker 4: went through the opening of the Seven Seals. We saw
- 24:46Speaker 4: all kinds of devastations of four horsemen, right, the red
- 24:51Speaker 4: horse that makes war up on the earth that men
- 24:54Speaker 4: may kill each other, The black horse that brings famine
- 24:57Speaker 4: and scarcity to the earth. White horse, I mean, the
- 25:02Speaker 4: pale horse that has death and hades riding behind it.
- 25:06Speaker 4: And then we see wormwood cast into the sea. We
- 25:10Speaker 4: see the oceans turn bitter springs of water. People die
- 25:15Speaker 4: because the water is bitter like. We see all these things,
- 25:20Speaker 4: and then now we got two witnesses tormenting the earth people.
- 25:23Speaker 4: I mean, what did they do that was so horrible.
- 25:29Speaker 4: That was tormenting the whole earth, Like what can two
- 25:34Speaker 4: people do to the whole earth? Like if I just
- 25:39Speaker 4: walked outside right now and I'm just gonna do something
- 25:42Speaker 4: that everybody on this planet is gonna be tormented, Like wow,
- 25:46Speaker 4: just imagine this. This is gonna be interesting, an interesting
- 25:56Speaker 4: time on the earth. Hey man. In these prophets, with
- 26:04Speaker 4: the power of God are gonna torment those who rejected God. Now,
- 26:11Speaker 4: after the three and a half days, the breath of
- 26:15Speaker 4: life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet,
- 26:21Speaker 4: and great fear fell on those who saw them, and
- 26:25Speaker 4: they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them,
- 26:29Speaker 4: come up here now man talking about to come back.
- 26:35Speaker 1: Thing.
- 26:37Speaker 4: These people on Earth are gonna be celebrating all of
- 26:40Speaker 4: a sudden, They're gonna stop in their tracks and I'm
- 26:43Speaker 4: gonna be oh wow, They're back like they were resurrected.
- 26:51Speaker 4: Now we know in the days of social media, right,
- 26:55Speaker 4: we're able to see out of recording right out of
- 27:00Speaker 4: Everybody has a camera on their phone, so we know
- 27:03Speaker 4: that everybody on the earth you can see this happen.
- 27:07Speaker 4: Somebody was filming them, maybe they were mocking them, gloating
- 27:12Speaker 4: over their dead bodies, took out their phone, took a trip,
- 27:17Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, probably because you know, they
- 27:19Speaker 4: were celebrating like it was Christmas. So this is a
- 27:22Speaker 4: family vacation. Hey, kids, come on, let's go to Jerusalem
- 27:27Speaker 4: and look at the dead body of these profits that
- 27:29Speaker 4: were tormenting us. Yay, dad, Let's go buy their plane tickets,
- 27:36Speaker 4: by all their necessities, plan out a whole trip. They're
- 27:40Speaker 4: gonna go and do some excursions and maybe go to
- 27:45Speaker 4: the beach if there's you know, if it ain't turn
- 27:48Speaker 4: the blood, if there's some water left out there. But
- 27:51Speaker 4: before they head over there, man, we're gonna go look
- 27:53Speaker 4: at these dead bodies. And they're gonna go and they're
- 27:57Speaker 4: taking pictures imagine selfies and all that, and all of
- 28:01Speaker 4: a sudden they stand up and they're like what, and
- 28:06Speaker 4: you are terrified. And then you hear a voice come
- 28:10Speaker 4: up here, and all of a sudden you see like raptured,
- 28:15Speaker 4: and it says and they ascended to heaven in a cloud,
- 28:20Speaker 4: and their enemies saw them. In the same hour, there
- 28:25Speaker 4: was a great earthquake and the tenth of the city fell. Wow.
- 28:31Speaker 4: Not only that, but a great earthquake and people dying
- 28:35Speaker 4: this earthquake. In this earthquake, seven thousand people were killed
- 28:41Speaker 4: and the rest were afraid and gave glory to God.
- 28:47Speaker 4: Gave glory to the God of heaven. Can you imagine that? Now?
- 28:51Speaker 4: Why does it take all that to give glory to
- 28:54Speaker 4: the God of Heaven? Like how stubborn can you have
- 28:57Speaker 4: to be to see and go through all these plagues?
- 29:03Speaker 4: And you need like some beasts to come out the
- 29:05Speaker 4: bottoless pit to come and read some havoc And then
- 29:11Speaker 4: you see these prophets resurrected. So now finally you want
- 29:16Speaker 4: to give God some glory? All right? Verse fourteen, The
- 29:30Speaker 4: second woe is passed. Behold, the third woe is coming quickly.
- 29:38Speaker 4: Now remember the angel said whoa, whoa, whoa. He said,
- 29:42Speaker 4: there's three woes, and he said, whoe into that inhabitants
- 29:46Speaker 4: of the earth. Because of the three trumpets that are
- 29:50Speaker 4: left to sound. So one trumpet sounded. This is the
- 29:56Speaker 4: second trumpet. And remember or our last episode, there was
- 30:02Speaker 4: a break in heaven, and we believe I saw Christ,
- 30:07Speaker 4: which is an angel that was standing on the sea
- 30:10Speaker 4: and earth, and he gave John a book that was
- 30:14Speaker 4: sweet to his taste. But bitter in his stomach. And
- 30:18Speaker 4: we said that, how that can be the word of God,
- 30:22Speaker 4: sweet right, all the blessings and the love of God,
- 30:27Speaker 4: but applying it can be bitter. Sometimes we got to
- 30:30Speaker 4: kill our flesh. And yes, the judgments of God on
- 30:35Speaker 4: the Christ's rejecting world is a very bitter thing. And
- 30:44Speaker 4: then in verse fifteen, let's keep going. Then the seventh
- 30:48Speaker 4: Angel sounded and there were loud voices in heaven saying,
- 30:52Speaker 4: the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of
- 30:57Speaker 4: our Lord and of his Christ. And that is the
- 31:02Speaker 4: day we're waiting for. Amen, you long for this day,
- 31:08Speaker 4: and he show reign forever and ever. Hallelujah. And the
- 31:12Speaker 4: twenty four elders who sat before God on their thrones
- 31:17Speaker 4: fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying Amen. Now
- 31:24Speaker 4: this is another song. Remember there's gonna be a lot
- 31:27Speaker 4: of singing in heaven, so get ready to write some lyrics.
- 31:33Speaker 4: I was actually talking to my boy Zone three the
- 31:36Speaker 4: other day talking about doing Now you're gonna hear it
- 31:39Speaker 4: exclusively here because you're a part of the family here
- 31:42Speaker 4: on the podcast. But we want to put together finally,
- 31:45Speaker 4: you put together at His Hot Nation Tour so we
- 31:49Speaker 4: gotta start writing these lyrics. We gotta start getting his
- 31:52Speaker 4: music together, because guess what, we're gonna be doing this
- 31:55Speaker 4: for all eternity. And we could always identify which group
- 32:02Speaker 4: is singing by the lyrics of their songs, and we
- 32:06Speaker 4: can identify even their function where they're going to be
- 32:09Speaker 4: doing in heaven and stuff like that. So let's pay
- 32:12Speaker 4: attention to these lyrics. It says, we give you thanks,
- 32:16Speaker 4: oh Lord, God Almighty, the one who is, who was,
- 32:23Speaker 4: and who is to come. Amen. Now remember this is
- 32:27Speaker 4: in the beginning of the Book of Revelation Alpha in
- 32:31Speaker 4: the Omega. Because you have taken your great power and reigned,
- 32:39Speaker 4: the nations were angry and your wrath has come. Now
- 32:46Speaker 4: you got nations that are angry, and then you got
- 32:49Speaker 4: the wrath of God. Like which side you want to
- 32:51Speaker 4: be on in the time of the dead, that they
- 32:56Speaker 4: should be judged. Wow, that's knowing the times and seasons
- 33:04Speaker 4: of God's calendar. It's time for the dead to be judged. Wow.
- 33:12Speaker 4: And that you should reward your servants, the prophets in
- 33:16Speaker 4: the saints and those who fear your name, small and
- 33:22Speaker 4: great and man, what group are you in are you
- 33:25Speaker 4: going to be judged with the dead, or are you
- 33:29Speaker 4: going to be amongst a group that fears the name
- 33:32Speaker 4: of God and should destroy those who destroy the earth.
- 33:38Speaker 4: Now that is pretty significant right there. God is going
- 33:43Speaker 4: to destroy those who destroy the earth. And as we
- 33:53Speaker 4: dig deeper than I want you to look up that
- 33:56Speaker 4: word earth in the Greek or Hebrew. I want you to.
- 34:01Speaker 4: I got some homework for you. As you talking about
- 34:05Speaker 4: the literal earth like the darkness see or is he
- 34:11Speaker 4: talking about the system the people like demons who have
- 34:16Speaker 4: destroyed souls and saying himself, who's brought so many into
- 34:24Speaker 4: the to hell? That's pretty significant that just I just
- 34:29Speaker 4: stoiced that. All right, let's wrap it up. Then the
- 34:32Speaker 4: temple of God was open in heaven and the arc
- 34:38Speaker 4: of his Covenant was seen in his temple, and there
- 34:42Speaker 4: were lightnings, noises, thunderings and earthquake and great hell. Man, Amen,
- 35:00Speaker 4: now this is great. Now I want to make mention
- 35:11Speaker 4: about the ark of the Covenant. I was an Indiana Jones.
- 35:16Speaker 4: I might be digging myself. Indiana Jones was a popular
- 35:22Speaker 4: movie series growing up in the eighties and nineties, and
- 35:32Speaker 4: one of my favorite one was Raiders of the Lost Arc.
- 35:39Speaker 4: You know, there's a lot of speculation out there. We
- 35:42Speaker 4: know that the Ark of the Covenant was built by
- 35:46Speaker 4: Moses in the Old Testament that represents the presence of God.
- 35:51Speaker 4: It was overlaid with gold. There were two angels that
- 35:55Speaker 4: covered the ark. Their wings would touch the represented God's present.
- 36:01Speaker 4: It was a box. He put poles through it, and
- 36:04Speaker 4: the nation of Israel would put it on their shoulders
- 36:07Speaker 4: and carry the Ark of the Covenant. Now, a couple
- 36:12Speaker 4: of stories that happened with the arc. We know that
- 36:16Speaker 4: Ooz I believe his name was Ooz, when Samuel was
- 36:19Speaker 4: bringing the arc back to Jerusalem, he touched it and
- 36:22Speaker 4: he was stricken dead right there on the spot. And
- 36:28Speaker 4: also we could think of there was a time, I
- 36:32Speaker 4: believe it was a time when Eli was a high priest,
- 36:36Speaker 4: that they were going to battle, going to war, and
- 36:38Speaker 4: they brought Israel brought the Ark of the Covenant, thinking
- 36:41Speaker 4: that this would it was like a good look charm right,
- 36:44Speaker 4: like we were going to win the battle because we
- 36:46Speaker 4: have the arc, which they got defeated, and the Philistines
- 36:52Speaker 4: took the arc. As they took the arc when they
- 36:57Speaker 4: put it in the temple of the Big guys, like
- 37:00Speaker 4: the fish guy they worshiped and God like destroyed their guy.
- 37:05Speaker 4: That they found their guy leaning on the ground with
- 37:10Speaker 4: his feet cut off, his hands cut off, head cut off,
- 37:13Speaker 4: and they're like, man, we can't deal with this arc,
- 37:15Speaker 4: like we got to give it back to Israel. And
- 37:20Speaker 4: also as we can remember that they had the arc
- 37:32Speaker 4: when it was Herod, when Herod built the temple. No, no,
- 37:36Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm not sure about that. I believe
- 37:38Speaker 4: I'm going on from your memory. I know it was Jeremiah.
- 37:43Speaker 4: Was that the first? I think that was when battle
- 37:46Speaker 4: on Yeah, that was when Neverkenezzar came in. He destroyed
- 37:51Speaker 4: the nation of Israel. And they're saying that Jeremiah took
- 37:55Speaker 4: the arc and hid it. He fled to Ethiopia or somewhere,
- 38:01Speaker 4: and they say that the arc may be somewhere in Ethiopia.
- 38:05Speaker 4: Either way, people have been looking for this arc for centuries,
- 38:10Speaker 4: like where is the arc? As a mystery? Here the
- 38:14Speaker 4: Book of Revelations, it tells you like God just opens
- 38:17Speaker 4: the window and shows us like the Arc of the
- 38:19Speaker 4: Covenant is in heaven. Now, question is this the arc
- 38:25Speaker 4: that Moses built or was this an arc that has
- 38:30Speaker 4: been there heaven? The whole time, and Moses just built
- 38:33Speaker 4: the replica of the real thing. Now we're not sure,
- 38:38Speaker 4: but yeah, I thought it was pretty pretty cool that
- 38:43Speaker 4: God allowed us to see the picture of the arc
- 38:49Speaker 4: in heaven. Right time for a quick music break. I
- 38:58Speaker 4: got Miles Minnick on deck. Look great, right back, it's

- 42:48Speaker 4: All right. We're talking about Revelation Chapter elevenies two Witnesses.
- 43:00Speaker 4: You know, I just want to say this real quick.
- 43:05Speaker 4: This chapter hits really hard. God is measuring his people
- 43:11Speaker 4: he's watching. Who's really about his presence, not just hanging
- 43:16Speaker 4: around the outer courts. He doesn't care. But he gave
- 43:21Speaker 4: the outer courts to the gentiles, but to winnesses. Reminds
- 43:27Speaker 4: us our job is not to please the crowd, is
- 43:33Speaker 4: to finish the mission. Amen, even if the world celebrates
- 43:39Speaker 4: your downfall, right, because you know my testimony. I opened
- 43:45Speaker 4: the Christian Club in twenty twelve, twenty eighteen. We had
- 43:50Speaker 4: to move out of the building because of some things
- 43:52Speaker 4: that happened. And yes, there were some people who celebrated
- 43:57Speaker 4: that God will resurrect you right in front of your enemies. Amen.
- 44:07Speaker 4: That's what I'm getting out of it. And as far
- 44:10Speaker 4: as finishing your mission, I don't know. I got this
- 44:13Speaker 4: mental picture in my head when I got saved a
- 44:19Speaker 4: lot of people I was in high school, when I
- 44:22Speaker 4: was fifteen years old, people in my school, people in
- 44:28Speaker 4: my neighborhood, people my age, my peers. I was able
- 44:33Speaker 4: to see revival. They accepted Christ. We began to evangelize,
- 44:37Speaker 4: we began to do things for God. We all had
- 44:41Speaker 4: a zeo. We just needed the knowledge, right, we needed
- 44:43Speaker 4: the discipleship, but we had a zeal in the heart
- 44:46Speaker 4: for God and I don't know if you've seen the
- 44:51Speaker 4: Young Guns write the story about Bility a kid. If
- 44:55Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken, it was a third one that we
- 44:58Speaker 4: know about Bility. To kid, he was this notorious murderer,
- 45:03Speaker 4: he was this we can have it right through Lincoln County.
- 45:07Speaker 4: And he would always say in the third one, he said,
- 45:09Speaker 4: let's finish the game, Like, you know what we about
- 45:13Speaker 4: this life, then let's be about this life. Let's finish
- 45:18Speaker 4: this game. And I've always felt, especially with my crew,
- 45:26Speaker 4: the original crew that I got saved with, and we
- 45:30Speaker 4: started evangelizing our community, I'm like, you know what, We're
- 45:36Speaker 4: gonna do this to the end, Let's finish the game. Amen.
