As is one 32 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 2: of my favorite topics as well. The Last Day is 33 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: the end times. I believe it's something that we need 34 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 2: to know as believers, that we need to not only 35 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: just know, but have a clear understanding. Once you have 36 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 2: a clear understanding of what's taking place in what's going on, 37 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: you have nothing to fear because you know that Jesus 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: assumed to return. 39 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I mean wow, that is so good, nutshell. 40 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: And so let's go ahead and dive into this. Yes 41 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: that we are both passionate about this subject, and I 42 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: believe the women who are tuning into this they are too, 43 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: so love it. We have the right audience here. Good, 44 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: that's good, yes, yes, all right, So let's dive in 45 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: so we're living in the last days, and so what 46 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: would you say, the Holy Spirit is telling us about 47 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: what's happening right now, what would you say. 48 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: We always have to go back to the scripture. What 49 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: is the Word? Because the Word of God, you know, 50 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 2: there's nothing new under the sun. God lays out everything 51 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: that we need to know, and the topic of the 52 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: last days is not one that's left out. I like 53 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: how Pastor Rick Renner says that God puts these things 54 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 2: in the world not to scare us, but to prepare us. 55 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: And so in two Timothy three, the apostle Paul talks 56 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 2: to Timothy, his son and the faith. I encourage you, 57 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 2: if you haven't read all of two Timothy to do 58 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 2: that because it's just a very powerful portion of scripture. 59 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: But if you look in two Timothy three, and it 60 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: starts in verse one, the apostle Paul through the power 61 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: of the Holy Spirit, and it's so awesome because the 62 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: Holy Spirit actually looks far ahead, you know, he knows 63 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 2: what's up ahead, and he prophesies exactly the day and 64 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 2: time that we're living in. So I want to just 65 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: you know, take us still, just really really quick. And 66 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: second Timothy three and one it says this no also, 67 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: and that's in the King James version that in the 68 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: last days, perilous times shall come. I want to take 69 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 2: just a moment and just break down those words, because 70 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: every word in the Bible in scripture is important. So 71 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: he says this, and that's the word Greek word tauto, 72 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 2: which is very specific and actually in the original well 73 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: it's actually well, he says this no, and the word 74 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 2: no is ganosko, and that means to know something definitely, emphatically, 75 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 2: with absolute certainty. Okay, So he's making no mistakes about this, 76 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: and the Holy Spirit is like he's grabbing our attention 77 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 2: to make sure that we understand that this is gonna 78 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 2: take place, this is gonna happen. And then there's that 79 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: little word also, which is just the word day, which 80 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 2: means indeed. So it's just agreeing that this is gonna 81 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 2: take place, is gonna happen. And the word that is 82 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: the word Greek word hoti, which points are a specific 83 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: and important point. So in the last the word last 84 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 2: is the word escatas, where we get the word for eschatology, 85 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 2: and it just means the very end of a thing, 86 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 2: all right. So he says that in the last day, 87 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: so the very last, the very end, and that's the 88 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: moment that we're in now. You know, the Last Days 89 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: was initiated at Pentecost and Acts two and one that's 90 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: when it started. So all throughout this time we've been 91 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 2: in the last days. But the Holy Spirit here is 92 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: talking about the very tail, in the final moments, the 93 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 2: final hours, and that's the hour that we're living in. 94 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: He says that periless times shall come. That we're periless. 95 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 2: Is the word calipost. It means risky times, difficult times, 96 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 2: and I don't know about you, but it's risky just 97 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: to step outside at your front door without seeing, you know, 98 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 2: something crazy happening or crazy going on. So he says 99 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 2: that in the in the last days, that it shall come, 100 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: and this Greek word lets us know that we're going 101 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: to be surrounded or encumbered by crazy things and crazy stuff. 102 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 2: So when you find yourself in that specific moment, in 103 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: that specific time where you look around and there's crazy 104 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: every crazy people, crazy things, crazy stuff going on, that's 105 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 2: how you know you're in the last days. And then 106 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: he goes on to give us twenty five characteristics of 107 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: the Last Day's society, which is a godless society. It's 108 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 2: a self loving society. And you can go through, you know, 109 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: go through. The audience can go through and read through 110 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 2: all of those things. But the first one is that 111 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: people will be lovers of themselves. What other society, more 112 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: now than ever where we have you know, social media, 113 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: where people are so in love with themselves. You can't 114 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: hardly have a conversation with some one about something that 115 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: you may be going through without them bringing it back 116 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 2: to themselves. You know, it's all about self self, self self, 117 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 2: And that's what he says, that it will be a 118 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: society that is godless, that is a society of loving 119 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: of itself, and because of that self love, then all 120 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 2: these other things come down underneath that. They'll be lovers 121 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 2: of money, they'll be boasters, they'll be proud, they'll be disober, 122 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 2: children will be disobediental parents. They'll be blasphemers. And that 123 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 2: word is interesting because it's the Greek word blasphem male. 124 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: That doesn't necessarily mean blaspheming the divine, But what it 125 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: means is that if you don't agree with what I'm saying, 126 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: that I'm gonna trash your name, I'm gonna we see 127 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 2: that turn on the TV and just watch the debates 128 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 2: and things like that. You see just trash talking and 129 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. So we see that in 130 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 2: our society right now today, that we're living in a society, 131 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: a godless, self loving society. But it has to come. 132 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 2: It has to be like that, because this type of 133 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 2: society is what's gonna actually usher in the Antichrist. And 134 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 2: you know, he has to come in the right He 135 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: can't comb you know, it couldn't come twenty thirty years ago. 136 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: Too many wholesome stuff, you know, going on, so many 137 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: things that people wouldn't just not allow. But nowadays it's 138 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: like anything goes. You know, it's like you turn on 139 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: the television or you turn on social media and you're 140 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: just like, I cannot believe the stuff that has taking place, 141 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: you know, in our day and in our time. So 142 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 2: you know, Paul tells him these things that this type 143 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 2: of atmosphere is what's going to usher in the Antichrist. 144 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: And what a time, right prime for the Antichrist to 145 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: be revealed. I'll tell you it's just a matter of 146 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: time pretty much. But you are so right. I mean, 147 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: listing off all the things of what it's going to 148 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: look like in the last days, And like you said, 149 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit has revealed that to us, that truth 150 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: of what's going to happen, and we have got to 151 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: be self aware, is what I would have to say 152 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: as well. It's like, once we see the scriptures, take 153 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: a moment to examine ourselves and see are we loving ourselves? 154 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: Are we getting caught up in that, you know, social media, 155 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: it's like there's a great deception to make it seem 156 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: like that's them, not me. But if we just kind 157 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: of take a deep dive and look at ourselves and 158 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: see are we doing something, Are we doing anything that 159 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: could be one of those one of those characteristics of 160 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: the Last days. And so it's a good way for 161 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: us examine ourselves. Yes, we see it on the outside 162 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: of what other people are doing, but I think it's 163 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: also a time for us to be self aware because 164 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: the deception is going to be so much greater right 165 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: as we get to the return of the Lord. So 166 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: I guess my next question would be is how do 167 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 1: we live in light of that? Like, right now we 168 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: know that there's so much deception, how do we avoid 169 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: the deception in the last days? Right now? 170 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: Well, once again it's laid out in this portion of scripture. 171 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 2: It tells us Paul gives us what to do. And 172 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 2: if you look at second Timpathy three and thirteen, it says, 173 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: but evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse 174 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 2: deceiving and being deceived. Matthew twenty four. Jesus, you know 175 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: when the disciples asking what will be the sign of 176 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: your coming, and the first thing that he says that 177 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 2: you'll know that I'm soon to return is there'll be 178 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: worldwide deception. And we're living in a day and time 179 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: where we are seeing people being deceived left and right. 180 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 2: It's mind boggling. It is mind boggling. But the answer, 181 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 2: the antidote to this is found in verse fourteen. Paul 182 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 2: tells Timothy. He says, but continue thou in the things 183 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: which thou hast learned and hast been assured of knowing 184 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: of whom thou hast learned them. So he tells him, 185 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 2: don't forget the things that you learned, the things that 186 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 2: you know to be true. Don't deviate from that. So, 187 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 2: and just to put it very plainly, stick with Jesus, 188 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 2: stick with the word. It's so very paramount that you 189 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 2: know the word of God for yourself. I was talking 190 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: to a friend of mine and she was she was 191 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: discussing some things in the Bible with one of her 192 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: family members, and I can't remember what the They were 193 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: talking about something in the Book of Revelation and they said, 194 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: I can't remember what the topic was surrounding. But my 195 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 2: friend she said that she had to correct USA, No, 196 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: that's not what it says, that's not true. And the 197 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 2: reason why she was able to correct it because she 198 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: had read it and knew what it said. And see, 199 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: if you're not reading that Bible, you're going to be deceived. 200 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 2: You are going to be deceived. And you know, living 201 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 2: in this day and time, you have to have discernment. 202 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 2: You have to have discernment. The Bible talks about the 203 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 2: sons of isa Car discerning the signs of the times. 204 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I for sure, you know, there's so much that's 205 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: going on, and we definitely need to pay attention and 206 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: hold firm to the faith is something that I'm always 207 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: talking about. And you know, the same thing Paul did 208 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: apostle Paul contend for the faith. There's a lot of 209 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: deception out there. There's a lot of things that are happening. 210 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: The wars and rumors of wars were seeing a lot 211 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: of that going on. We know that the Antichrist is 212 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: going to take his place, and so the church is 213 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: going to go through some things before Christ returns. I 214 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: definitely believe that we're seeing that right now. There's going 215 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: to be some intense persecution and that's going to take 216 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: place as well. I mean, Paul said, pay attention. He 217 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: said listen because the Thessalonian when we go back to 218 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: the Thessalonian Church and they thought he was coming back 219 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: in their time. Paul actually talks about it, you know, 220 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: in the Last Days when he says, how what is 221 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: it going to look like before he comes? And he's 222 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: telling them before it comes, it's going to be this 223 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: great falling away before Jesus comes, the Antichrist is going 224 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: to be revealed. It says that is revealed. A lot 225 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: of people skirt around that because of just what's been 226 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: taught in the past, but they're like, oh, you know 227 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: all the things and they're seeing all these things, but 228 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: it's very clear, and that's why he hasn't come yet. 229 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: One because the love that he has for many to repent. Secondly, 230 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: there are things that have to happen before, and the 231 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: body of Christ is going to undergo serious persecution before 232 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: because there's a time of proving of hearts. There's a 233 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: time when the lawyer wants to say, Okay, let me 234 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: see who's really on my side, who's really on my side? 235 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: And when he says when he comes in Matthew twenty four, 236 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: when he says, when he comes, we got to be ready, 237 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: right because the angels, when he says, they're going to 238 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: come and they're going to take those who are ready. 239 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: In Matthew twenty four, there's so many passages that people 240 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: read and they skirt over so many things because it 241 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: fits a doctrine instead of truth. And so this is 242 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: why it is so important for us to, like you said, 243 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: read the scriptures, pay attention, really take it in for 244 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: what it's actually saying and in context. And so we 245 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: need to be ready for an end time deception, a 246 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: great deception, a great falling away. We're already seen it happen. 247 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: But when this man of lawlessness takes his place, there's 248 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: going to be approving of saints. And Scripture tells us 249 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: Revelation thirteen, you know we're gonna have to stand for 250 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: our faith, because it's not. The thing about it is 251 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: it's not a how do I say it, It's not 252 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: a war. It's not God's wrath on us. People will say, 253 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 1: we're not appointed to wrath, and we're not. We won't 254 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: be experiencing that as believers. The wrath of God, the 255 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: wrath of God is for those who don't want him, 256 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: but the wrath of Satan one percent. Because it says 257 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: that so, and that's the misconception. That's the thing that 258 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: people miss. And we have to prepare ourselves for this 259 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: great deception. We have to be ready. We have to 260 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: be ready to stand on truth. We have to be 261 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: ready to stand together as the body of Christ. Well, 262 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: all right, we're going to go ahead and take a 263 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,599 Speaker 1: quick break, and when we get back, we're going to 264 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about this topic. Stay tuned 265 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: for more. Welcome back. We're going to go ahead and 266 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: dive a little bit more into this topic. And so, 267 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: how do we navigate? What would you say, how how 268 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: do you how do you navigate through all of this 269 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: that's happening right now in our world? What would you say? 270 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 2: Perfectly? You got to you've got to have that one 271 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 2: on one communication with the Father. Yeah, because in the 272 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: day and times that we're living in, these risky, difficult times. 273 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 2: You know, you may have plans to do something and 274 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: the Holy Spirit may say don't go, or he may 275 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 2: say go. And you've got to have discernment enough to 276 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 2: know when to make your move, not to make your moves. Yeah, 277 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 2: because we're living in critical times. As you was talking, 278 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: I was thinking about in Revelation when John saw Jesus 279 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 2: and when he described his feet, he said he was 280 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 2: had feet of bronze, and bronze is a very heavy metal, 281 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 2: very heavy substance. And the reason why he saw that 282 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: it was because he saw him, you know, as he 283 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 2: was walking his feet. Bronze is heavy. So when he's 284 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 2: coming in his judgment, he's not coming swiftly. He's coming 285 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 2: slowly because he's trying to give people a chance, like 286 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 2: you say, in his mercy and it's long suffering and love, 287 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 2: a chance to repent. Once he executes his judgment, once 288 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 2: he says that's it, he can't take it back, right, 289 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 2: so you know the things that are to come. And 290 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: when the when the church was, the early Church was 291 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 2: upon its inception, they experienced heavy persecution because of the 292 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: things that they believed. And just like in the closure 293 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: of the Church age, we two again will experience heavy persecution, 294 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 2: you know, and I know a lot of times in 295 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: the Western world we don't want to talk about that 296 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 2: because you know, we just you know, a lot of 297 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 2: messages can be kind of sweet and like, you know, 298 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 2: get your blessing and all that kind of stuff. But 299 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: life will says it there that you know, if you're 300 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: gonna follow Christ, you're gonna have persecution. You're not gonna 301 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: you shouldn't be loved by the world right serving you know, 302 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: the Lord, and people when you talk tell the truth, 303 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: talk about the truth, they don't want people that don't 304 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 2: want to hear it. They're gonna mark you. They're gonna, 305 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: you know, you got to your little feelings get hurt 306 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: and all that kind of stuff. You gotta knowing that 307 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: you believe, and you got to stand on the word 308 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 2: of God and not falter and not waiver. You gotta 309 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 2: be settled with it that you're gonna go all the way, 310 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: even at the event, at the expense of giving your life. 311 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: That is so true. That's so true, and I think 312 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: that's exactly what we're upon. That's exactly what we're upon. 313 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: So how should we be living what would you say, 314 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: like the everyday life, living at home, at work in 315 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: the church, How should we be living. 316 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: Holy, sanctified and set apart. Now people don't like to 317 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 2: hear that word holy, because that's what does that mean? Well, 318 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 2: I can't do nothing, not necessarily, but you don't. You're 319 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: not doing the stuff that the world is doing. If 320 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 2: you said you should not be using profanity. If you're saved, 321 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 2: you should not be drinking and smoking. If you're saved, 322 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 2: you should not be sleeping and shacking up. If you're saved, 323 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 2: you should be living for God. And people should know 324 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 2: by the truth that you bear, that you are that 325 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 2: you belong to the Lord. They should know when you 326 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,959 Speaker 2: step in the room that hey, some of the presents 327 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 2: or something else has stepped into this room because of 328 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 2: the life that you live. And when you sanctified, that 329 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: means that you're set apart for a purpose. If if 330 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: I'm living any old kind of way and somebody calls 331 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: me all the blue and needs me to come lay 332 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 2: hands on somebody that has cancer in their body, I 333 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 2: don't have time to get right and get ready. I 334 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 2: gotta be really so that when I lay my hands 335 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 2: on that person, I see the power of God manifested, 336 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: the healing power of God. You know that that my 337 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 2: vessel is not all clumped up with stuff and jump, 338 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 2: but that I'm living wholly, sanctified and set apart, set 339 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 2: apart from the world. Not like the world. The world's 340 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: doing it. Do the opposite. No, no, don't do it. 341 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 2: If the world is going with it, then then it's 342 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 2: it's not God. You know, you have to make your 343 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 2: mind up that you're going to serve the Lord. And 344 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 2: that may mean that you may not have a whole 345 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 2: slew of friends. That may mean that, you know, you 346 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: may be kind of to yourself or alone, But that's 347 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: all right. I rather be alone to myself and on 348 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 2: my way to heaven and have a bunch of friends 349 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: and on my way to hell. 350 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: That's right, Live right, live holy. I have a saying 351 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: that I say, holiness is still in. 352 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 2: That's right, it's still right, it is still right. 353 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: It is still right, it is still in, and God 354 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: calls for it. Be holy. For I am holy, so 355 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: so true. I love that. Yes, we should be living right, 356 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: and like you said, surround yourself with people who are 357 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: living right, who are living righteously and it's not a 358 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: self righteousness, but it's a lifestyle that is pleasing onto 359 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: the Lord. And so yes, yes, don't get religious, don't 360 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: be legalistic, just be Bible right, live the word. The 361 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is within you. He will let you know 362 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: where to go, where not to go, what to do, 363 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: what not to do, what to say, what not to say, 364 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: what to kick out of your mind, the thoughts that 365 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 1: are not of him, what to watch not to watch, 366 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: just being mindful because of price returns. We want to 367 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: be ready. We want to be ready, and we want 368 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 1: to be helping other people to get ready. Even when 369 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: I look at the ten Virgins, right, the five Whys 370 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: and the five foolish, I love, love, love that parable 371 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: and it's just so important for us to look at 372 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: that story and glean from it because it was that 373 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: It wasn't that they didn't have oil. That's the thing 374 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: the scriptures just talked about. There's several passages where it 375 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: shows about the oil and it says they didn't have enough. 376 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: There's like they didn't have any oil. So when they 377 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: say they didn't have no oil, they didn't have enough 378 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: oil like the other versions, the wise versions. They had 379 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: extra they had an extra flask, they had oil. They 380 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: were ready, ready, ready. But the wise, all of them 381 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: got up when it sounded, right, all of them knew, 382 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: like I said, when the trumpet sounds, it's going to 383 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: be so loud. Everyone know. Everybody's gonna look. It's like 384 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: going to be like the lightning that flashes across the sky. 385 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: We all see lightning when it flashes across the sky. 386 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: And that's when Matthew twenty four and all the others 387 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: talk about Luke and all them. And so when we 388 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: see that happening, yeah, nobody is going to be looking up. 389 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 1: But only the ones who are ready are going to go. 390 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: They're going to get in. And even with the wise 391 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 1: and the foolish. Once Jesus came, once the bridegroom came, 392 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: Once the trumpet sound happened, and the wedding feast was 393 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: about to begin, the door was shut, and when they 394 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: started knocking, it wasn't like, let me crack it open 395 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: and come on in. You know, you have another opportunity, 396 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 1: You got another chance. I don't see that in scripture. 397 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: That's not what Jesus said. Jesus said, I don't know 398 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 1: you and no, you can't get in. I don't know you. 399 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: And so now is the time to know Jesus because 400 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: he's got to know you, right, He's got to know you. 401 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: And knowing you is having that relationship. Knowing you was 402 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 1: spending time and fellowship with him. Knowing you is being 403 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: ready and living for him. Were talking about the holiness 404 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: and all of that right, and being watchful of not 405 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: being deceived in the last hour because the enemy's going 406 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: to get really really crafty, and so having that extra oil, 407 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: being hot and on fire for the Lord, having ready 408 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: because they were like the other one were like, we 409 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: can't give you any of our art, We can't give 410 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: you any of our fire, We can't give you any 411 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: of our passion for Jesus, we can't. We're ready, we 412 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: prepared for this day, and now it's time and we 413 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: want to go in. And so what happens They go in. 414 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: The door is shut locked, just like Noah. The door 415 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: to the Ark was shut right, just like Sadam and Goamore, 416 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: just like the Lord says, how it's going to be 417 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: before he comes. What happened the city was burned, and 418 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: what he told Lot's wife, listen, everybody, God was like, listen, 419 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: remember a Lot's wife. Remember there's a reason why we 420 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: have to remember a Lot's wife, because she looked back. 421 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: She was disobedient, and she looked back at the things 422 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: of the world, of what she was leaving behind. Don't 423 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: worry about don't cling to the stuff of the world. 424 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: You just got to be ready. You got to be 425 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: ready because everything outside, like I just read a little 426 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: bit earlier in Peter, everything else is going to be 427 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: burned up. All the elements are going to be burned up. 428 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: There's going to be a new heaven, a new Earth 429 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: and all of that, and it's just going to be 430 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: hell on this earth after we get out of here, 431 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: after the rapture of the church, after the taking us away, right, 432 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: the Lord is coming back for his bride. And so 433 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: all of that to say is we want to make 434 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: sure that we're ready. We want to make sure that 435 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: we have oil in our lamps. So we know deception 436 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: it's going to get greater. We know the Antichrist it's 437 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: going to take his place. We know the falling away 438 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: is going to get greater and greater. More and more 439 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: people are going to follow it. And what's seeing that happen. 440 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, I think you hit it all in 441 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 2: a nutshell at the close of Matthew twenty five. You 442 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: know it's important that we're ready, because he says in 443 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 2: Matthew twenty five thirteen and he says, watch therefore, for 444 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 2: you know, neither the day nor the hour where the 445 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 2: Son of Man coming. So we don't know the day 446 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 2: or the hour. We only see the signs of the time. 447 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 2: And we know that we just got to stay ready, 448 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 2: stay ready. But in the midst of staying ready, you 449 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 2: still gotta live, you know, keep, keep preaching the world, 450 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,479 Speaker 2: keep laying hands on the sick, keep you know, don't 451 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: just stop and say, well, Jesus has coming back. No, no, no, 452 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 2: there's still work to be done people. I'm still leading 453 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 2: people to the Lord. I'm still praying for people and 454 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: seeing he'll ain't taking place. Just like how Jesus all 455 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 2: the way up until the end, you know, of his life, 456 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 2: he was still saving, still healing, put on the man's ear, 457 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 2: Malcus's ear, the thief on the cross, led him into paradise. 458 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 2: We don't quit, we don't stop, but we live as 459 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 2: if you know, with that ever on our minds, that 460 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 2: Jesus is coming soon. 461 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, and that soon. I studied that out that 462 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: soon means swift. When he returns, it will be swift 463 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: because those angels are going to go out swiftly grabbing 464 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: us up out of here, because we know after that 465 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: it's going to be sudden destruction. And so be encouraged, 466 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: be encouraged to be ready, be encouraged to live the 467 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: life how you're called to live. And I love that 468 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: you said that keep doing what you're doing, because that's 469 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: exactly I alluded to that to that verse. I went 470 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: over to two Peter because that's one of my phaves 471 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 1: to go to. But I wanted to read because I 472 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 1: knew Paul was talking about the very thing that you 473 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: said about keep working. That's what he was telling the church. 474 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: If that's the like Thesala Nika is to keep working, 475 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: don't stop because these things got to happen first. They 476 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: have to happen first before Christ returns, So don't stop working. 477 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 1: And so this is what he said. I want to 478 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: read this before we get out of here. I want 479 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 1: to take some time to read Second Thessalonians, all right, 480 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: and it's talking about the time of the day of 481 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: the Lord. And it starts in chapter two, and I'm 482 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: just going to read on all right, so it says this. Now, 483 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 1: dear brothers and sisters, let us clarify some things about 484 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: the coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and how we 485 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: will be gathered to meet him. Don't be so easily 486 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: shaken or alarmed by those who say that the day 487 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: of the Lord has already begun. Don't believe them, even 488 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: if they claim to have had a spiritual vision, a revelation, 489 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: or a letter supposedly from us. Don't be fooled by 490 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: what they say, for that day will not come until 491 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: there is a great rebellion against God and the man 492 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: of lawlessness is revealed, the one who brings destruction. He 493 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: will exalt himself and defy everything that people call God 494 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: and every object of worship. He will even sit in 495 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: the temple of God, claiming that he himself is God. 496 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: But don't you remember that I told you about all 497 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: of this when I was with you, all right, And 498 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: so we have to stand firm on truth. We know 499 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:22,479 Speaker 1: that when that day comes, when Jesus comes, that's going 500 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: to be an amazing day for us. So we are 501 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: going to be ready if we're still alive during that time, 502 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 1: we are going to be so ready to say, Jesus, come, 503 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: please get us out of here, because it's going to 504 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: be just that bad. The deception is going to be 505 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: just that bad, and so we are going to be 506 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: crying for the Lord to come. He says, I will 507 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: have to shorten those days lest the very elect be deceived. 508 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: If Jesus had to say that, and if Jesus had 509 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: to say, when I come, will I even find any faith? 510 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: If he had to say that, then we know there's 511 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: going to be some very trying time trying of our 512 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: faith to stand firm in what we believe. And before 513 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: we get out of here, I want to say, Hi, 514 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: the word in your heart, Hie the word in your heart, 515 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: that you might not sin against God. But also hide 516 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: the word in your heart to strengthen your faith because 517 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: there may come a day when Bibles are confiscated. You've 518 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: got to hide it in your heart. You've got to 519 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: memorize it, you've got to study it out because when 520 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: people need a word that's going to minister and help 521 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: and encourage during that time when it gets really hard 522 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 1: for us down here, you're going to need to know it. 523 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: And I'm going to need to know it, and I 524 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: would want to receive it from someone who knows the 525 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 1: word right. And so take time to study, take time 526 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: to hide it in your heart, stand firm, hold firm 527 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: to the truth, just like we've been talking about. And 528 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: get ready because guess what, Jesus Christ is coming back soon, 529 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 1: just like my sister said. And when he does, it 530 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,239 Speaker 1: will be swift, and we've got to be ready, just 531 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: like the wise versions. Amen, Amen, just like the wise versions. 532 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: All right, well, do you have an encouraging word that 533 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:56,959 Speaker 1: you want to share with the women who are going 534 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: to be listening and watching today. PAULA, Yes, I. 535 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 2: Do, just the apostle Paul encouraged Timothy and two Timothy 536 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 2: one and seven. He said that, but God has not 537 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 2: giving you the spirit of fear, but of power, love 538 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: and a sound mind. So although we are living in 539 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 2: the last of the last days, we're living in the 540 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: end times. God has counted us worthy to be here 541 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: because he knows that we're gonna make it. And just 542 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 2: be encouraged of the things, even though the things that 543 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: we may see are difficult, and we're living, you know, 544 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 2: in risky times. But just continue to hold onto the 545 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 2: faith because God is not going to disappoint us. And 546 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 2: if it gets too bad down here, He's coming back 547 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 2: to get us. So just be encouraged, keep praying for 548 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 2: your loved ones, Pray fervently for your loved ones and 549 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 2: those around you, and continue to continue to serve the Lord. 550 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 2: Don't be back sliding, don't be listening to no crazy doctrines. 551 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 2: Serve God and stick with Jesus and being couraged. 552 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: I love it being couraged.
