1
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: Hello everyone. My name in Sergio Romos.

2
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,560
Speaker 2: I'm for Carlsbad, New Mexico, and I wanted to share

3
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 2: testimony with about fasting and praying. For the last few

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 2: years we've been following Jonathan's ministry. I was exposed to

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 2: fasting about two years ago. I was fasting, but it

6
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 2: was just more I wasn't eating, I wasn't even praying.

7
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 2: And God delivered us both from alcohol addiction, but there

8
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 2: was still other things going on that, you know, I

9
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 2: really wanted to see God moving. And one of the

10
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 2: bigger ones is that I served in the military for

11
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: a couple of years. I came back, I you know,

12
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 2: was dealing with things from Iraq and things like that.

13
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: And I was not a good husband. I was a

14
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: worse father. I was ugly to my kids. One of

15
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: my kids actually pushed him away.

16
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 2: So when you turned eighteen, he left the stroke of midnight,

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 2: he left our house. I resented myself, my family, my wife,

18
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: my other two kids, and I just had to get

19
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 2: to a place.

20
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: I was like, God, you know, do something.

21
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: So this past year, actually before we wanted to, we

22
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 2: gave up drinking.

23
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 1: I felt like drinking kept us like war.

24
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 2: Modern Christians you know, just sitting on the fence, couldn't

25
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 2: make a choice. So the other thing is that I

26
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 2: knew God was calling me to fast, and the enemy

27
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 2: kept coming.

28
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 1: Hey, just drink. Your son's not going to come back.

29
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 2: Don't worry about him. He'll come back when God brings him.

30
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: I was discouraging every single way. And so this past year,

31
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: after we completed our first year fasting, I had told

32
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 2: my wife, I don't know about you, but I got

33
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 2: to do this fast for my youngest. I want him home, That's.

34
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: What I want.

35
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: And so my wife said, yeah, you know, I'll do

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 2: it with you. And so we started fasting and praying.

37
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: We're watching the services this past year. Pastor Jonathan was

38
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: showing the whole time. You know, it was the middle

39
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: of the month. I was like, Lord, and get serious

40
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 2: with you. And I'm sorry, you know, for doubting you

41
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 2: and for this unbelief, but I know you can deliver.

42
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 2: There was actually another brother, and you probably heard his testimony,

43
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: Anthony's for Carlsbad as well. His family actually pioneered for

44
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: us several things, and one of them was they had

45
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: a daughter that kind of left was doing her own

46
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 2: thing when we were just living in the world, whatever

47
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 2: she was doing. They fasted and prayed for their child

48
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 2: and they came back.

49
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: So I was to a point where like, God, hey,

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: I want what they want.

51
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 2: But God was telling me, you want what they want,

52
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 2: but you don't want to put in the work that

53
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: they did. And I was like, okay, you know, like

54
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 2: if you're a Jim person, you want the results, but

55
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: you don't want the work.

56
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: And that's what God was telling me.

57
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: So okay, all right, well God, you know I'm calling

58
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: you out on that. I want what you did for them,

59
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: and you're the god of more than enough.

60
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: I want what you did for them.

61
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 2: So me and my wife started doing two days of

62
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: fasting and praying. We were still praying throughout the week,

63
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: so we kept going the I was like, you know, Lord, I.

64
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: Don't know when you're gonna do it, but you're gonna

65
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: do it. I'm believing you.

66
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 2: Sometime this year you're gonna bring You're gonna bring him back.

67
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 2: So it was in February of this year, was on

68
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 2: our daughter's birthday, and I kept believing God, hopefully my

69
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 2: son will come by because at first he was Hey

70
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 2: I'm coming by. Hey I'm not, And so I was like,

71
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: all right, well, you know, I was a little heartbroken,

72
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: but I was trying to remain strong for my family.

73
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: He walks in and I just loved.

74
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,639
Speaker 2: Him unconditionally, with the love that I knew God loves

75
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 2: each and every one of his children. And one of

76
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: my kids asked, so, don't you care what he did?

77
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 2: I said, I honestly, I don't care what he did.

78
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: I'm just glad he's here. And God reminded me of

79
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: the story about the prodigal son when the son left,

80
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: he came back and the father accepted him. The whole

81
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 2: time I was wrestling with God, like, God, when are

82
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: you going to bring him back?

83
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: When are you going to bring him back?

84
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 2: Why don't you change him? And the whole time God

85
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 2: was saying, I'm waiting on you to change, not him.

86
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 2: And so he came back. We had and we had,

87
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: you know, reconciled a couple of things, but he still

88
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: working in Texas and I was like, man, Lord, I

89
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 2: really want for my birthday, nothing else, just for my

90
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: son to come home.

91
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: That's all I want.

92
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: I've lost four and a half years. I don't want

93
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 2: to live like this no more. I just want my

94
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: family made whole.

95
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,119
Speaker 1: I want the void filled.

96
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 3: Lord, you're not a liar.

97
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: I know you can come through, and we're believing it.

98
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 2: So we went up to Pittsburgh just to you know,

99
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 2: see the church campuses up there for one of our kids.

100
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: We went up there to a service. We loved it

101
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: up there.

102
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: And my son at the time, he's or my youngest one,

103
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 2: the one that I had left. He contacted us and

104
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 2: he said, Hey, I'm going to be home waiting for

105
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: you guys.

106
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: Whenever you guys get back from Pittsburgh.

107
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 2: So he moved back in August twenty sixth, and my

108
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: birthday was August twenty ninth, and he still now is

109
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 2: living with us, And I just wanted.

110
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: To share that with everybody. Fasting and praying does work.

111
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: He did it for another couple, he did.

112
00:04:59,160 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 4: It for me.

113
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: He can do it for you.

114
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,919
Speaker 2: He delivered us of alcohol addiction, and he brought my

115
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 2: son home, which is, you know, one of the greatest

116
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: gifts he can do, and he lives with us.

117
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: I mean, we're just so grateful.

118
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 2: And I just want to thank God, don't think of

119
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: Pastor Jonathan, Pastor Adalas and Choose Life for allowing me

120
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: to share this testimony.

121
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: And I just encourage anybody.

122
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 2: That has family member, that has something, anything that matters

123
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: to you, matters to God, and I encourage you just

124
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: to really press in and fast and pray. Thank you

125
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: everybody for allowing me to hear this, and thank you Father,

126
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 2: Thank you Jesus.

127
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 3: We are raising up a family in this church.

128
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 4: We're raising up a family in Pittsburgh. We're raising up

129
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 4: a family in Texas that don't just know about God.

130
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 3: They know God.

131
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 4: They've handled his power, they've seen his power flow through it.

132
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 4: You're coming out of here to that caring, fresh fire,

133
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: fresh unknowing take, never to take another backwards stamp. Take

134
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 4: your Bibles if you would go to Matthew chapter twenty four,

135
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 4: Bed four hundred and eleven in the eight am service,

136
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: which is a record for eight am, and obviously I

137
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 4: don't have the numbers yet for this service. Book should

138
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 4: be a record record Sunday at Revival today. Think how

139
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 4: much bigger the church would have got if Katik and

140
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 4: WTA wouldn't have stopped running those stories Matthew twenty four.

141
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 4: In verse three, they asked Jesus put up on the

142
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 4: screen Matthew twenty four to three, will there be any

143
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 4: signs ahead of time to signal your return and the

144
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 4: end of the world. So just not to assume everybody

145
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 4: knows everything about the Bible. Jesus died on the cross,

146
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,679
Speaker 4: he was dead three days, he was raised from the dead.

147
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: That's a historical fact.

148
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 4: That if anybody questions you on the resurrection, you never

149
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 4: have to say, well, that's just something I believe in

150
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 4: my faith.

151
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: It's not something you believe in your faith anymore you.

152
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 4: Believe that George Washington was the first president of the

153
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 4: United States.

154
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 3: It's a historical fact.

155
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 4: If you threw all the Bibles away, there's ten times

156
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 4: more evidence to prove that Jesus rose from the dead,

157
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 4: not lived, rose from the dead than there is that

158
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 4: Julius Caesar ever existed. One professor at McMasters University said,

159
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 4: if it wasn't Jesus, the resurrection would be the greatest attested.

160
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: To fact of ancient history.

161
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 4: Actually, if you type it into it's either groc or

162
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 4: chat GPT. What's the most reliable document of antiquity, it's

163
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 4: the Bible. Is just that's why that Wesley Huff when

164
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 4: he was on Joe Rogan and he was with that

165
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 4: other guy. You know, Joe Rogan had him on because

166
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 4: they were taking shots at the Bible. You know, this

167
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 4: is just you know, people believe it, but if you

168
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 4: actually knew what was really written in ancient Egypt. And

169
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 4: he dismantled that guy so much so that the guy

170
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 4: stormed out of his own podcast because he said he

171
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 4: felt like he was set up. It was his podcast,

172
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: and so you know, he said, the original documents don't

173
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 4: actually say that. And the guy turns around and grabs

174
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 4: the original document and goes, I actually have the original

175
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 4: document here. Would you like me to send the PDF

176
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 4: to you? And the guy was just made a full

177
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 4: out of Well. Then he went on Joe Rogan and

178
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 4: was explaining the text to Joe Rogan as well. Great

179
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 4: to be at Petco today with all the squeaky toys.

180
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 4: If anyone needs one, we're handing him out the first

181
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 4: time visitors Matthew twenty twenty four. So everybody said, Jesus

182
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 4: rose from the dead, and then he, unlike Lazarus, he

183
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 4: never died again. Then the Bible says in Acts chapter one,

184
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 4: while he was blessing the disciples, he ascended up into

185
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 4: heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.

186
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 4: And one day the Angel said, just as you saw

187
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 4: him go, he will return. So the disciples said, will

188
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 4: there be any sign? Say with me, Jesus is coming soon.

189
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 4: And the disciples said, will we know ahead of time?

190
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 4: Will there be any signs? Jesus started at verse three

191
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 4: and went through the whole rest of chapter twenty four,

192
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 4: at least to verse thirty five. Anyway telling signs that

193
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 4: when you see these things happen, you'll know my return

194
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 4: is near. Even at the door earthquakes and diverse places.

195
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 3: That means earthquakes where you've never seen him before.

196
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 4: Men will be perplexed because of the strange tides and

197
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 4: roaring seas.

198
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 3: That's tidal ways.

199
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 4: When you hear about that, when you hear stuff like

200
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 4: there's never been a tidal waven five hundred years now,

201
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 4: there's been two in the last two years, that signs

202
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 4: because yeah, there's always been those things, but Jesus said

203
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 4: they would speed up. Then you have the main sign

204
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 4: Matthew twenty four to thirty two. Jesus said, no, this

205
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 4: the generation that sees the fig tree. But again, when

206
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 4: that generation will not pass from the scene till all

207
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 4: these things are fulfilled. Heaven and Earth will pass away,

208
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 4: but my word will remain forever. Every one of Jesus's

209
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 4: hears knew the fig tree being blossoming again was which

210
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 4: nation Israel the fig tree. Israel had lost its national sovereignty.

211
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 4: They were under Roman rule, and Jesus said, one day

212
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 4: Israel will become a nation again. And when that happens,

213
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 4: the generation that sees this happen. That means the group

214
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 4: of people. That's why I'm forty four. Anybody that's my age,

215
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 4: I don't think you could be younger than me. And

216
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 4: remember this because I was. I was in like second

217
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 4: or third grade, third grade. Anybody remember the book eighty

218
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 4: eight Reasons why Jesus will come back in nineteen eighty eight.

219
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 4: The reason they base that was because Israel was reborn

220
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 4: May fourteenth, nineteen forty eight, and a biblical generation is

221
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 4: forty years, so that was the main reason. But a

222
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 4: generation refers to a group of people that are alive

223
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 4: on the earth at one time, So as long as

224
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 4: there are people alive from May fourteenth, nineteen forty eight,

225
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 4: Jesus said that group of people will still be on

226
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 4: the earth. When all these things are fulfilled, heaven and

227
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 4: earth will pass away, But my word will remain forever.

228
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 4: When you see them ship ten red heifers from Texas

229
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 4: to Israel that are the first red heifers that have

230
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 4: been born, they can't have one white hair on them

231
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 4: to be a blemishless heffer to be sacrificed. And then

232
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 4: you have the announcement that they're going to rebuild the

233
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 4: Third Temple, and now you have a president.

234
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 3: They couldn't do it under Biden. They wuld' have had support.

235
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 4: Now you're gonna get the enemies cleared out of the

236
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 4: west This is all prophetic. That's the reason why the

237
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 4: Palestinians are getting cleared out of the West Bank, because

238
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 4: everything has to line up with Bible prophecy. So they're

239
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 4: going to rebuild that temple. The cattle are already there

240
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 4: to resacrifice. You say, yeah, but the Dome of the

241
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 4: Rock is where the Third Temple is. Without going into

242
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,199
Speaker 4: a big thing on that, how hard would it be

243
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 4: for the IDF to allow one of the missiles that's

244
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 4: randomly fired when they fire a thousand let one throw

245
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 4: on purpose to destroy the Dome of the Rock.

246
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 3: And then there you have it cleared.

247
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 4: Everything's gonna line up just like the Bible said, can

248
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 4: you say amen? So when you see like that video

249
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 4: I showed, why not if I'm gonna go to Washington,

250
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 4: d C. Why not stay and have dinner with the dollars.

251
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 4: I haven't seen her in a week anyway, Why not

252
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 4: kind of chill? Why start a third church in Los Angeles?

253
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 4: Because the Bible says, as you see the day approaching,

254
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 4: you should conduct yourself in a certain way. How well

255
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 4: you watch a lot of Christian TV, you know, buy,

256
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 4: get a bomb shelter, seven year supply of food, wait

257
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 4: for the Antichrist, That's not what the Bible says to do.

258
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 4: The Bible says, while you're waiting for these things to happen,

259
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 4: what you We have a mission, the Great Commission. Go ye.

260
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 3: And yeah, don't just travel now. If it's said go.

261
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 4: Into all the world and paint houses, then a lot

262
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 4: of churches would get an A plus. Go to a

263
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 4: church and put roofs on poor people's homes. Go into

264
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 4: all the world, and uh, deliver food to people that

265
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 4: don't have food. That's part of what we're to do.

266
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 4: But the Great Commission is not going to all the

267
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 4: world and supply people's human needs. Only it's going to

268
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 4: all the world. And in a crowd this size, both

269
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 4: in Texas and Pittsburgh, people grew up. There's no chance

270
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 4: that there's no one here that didn't grow up in

271
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 4: an abusive home with an abusive father. If a church

272
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 4: comes and drops food off, great, but that doesn't solve

273
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 4: the main proble that your family's going through. And so

274
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 4: Jesus came and shed his blood, not just so people

275
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 4: could have food and drinks while their life is miserable.

276
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 4: He came and shed his blood to wipe sin and

277
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 4: the curse of sin out of homes and out of families.

278
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 4: Because until something changes inside, nothing ever changes outside.

279
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 3: Can you say amen?

280
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 4: And then when he ascended, he said, the same work

281
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 4: that you see me do, you shall do in greater

282
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 4: go into all world what you saw me do. Matthew,

283
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 4: Mark Luke and John do that carry that same work out?

284
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 3: Now.

285
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 4: I'm not trying to pump our church up, but when

286
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 4: you have to answer questions to people like we're doing

287
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 4: some kind of weird thing in laying hands on people

288
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: and praying for people that are sick, all we do

289
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 4: at this church is we took Matthew, Mark Luke and

290
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 4: John and the Book of Acts. And if we're supposed

291
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 4: to carry out the work of Christ, then it would

292
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 4: be helpful to read what did Jesus do? Did Jesus

293
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 4: speak for twenty eight minutes and pray a prayer of

294
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 4: dismissal and have the next group come in?

295
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 3: No, he taught, preached and healed all the sick.

296
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 4: They brought him people that were tormented, and he delivered

297
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 4: them by the power of God.

298
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 3: Then he gave us the mission to carry.

299
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 4: That out by the Holy Spirit. Can you say amen?

300
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 4: And that's that's what we're endeavoring to do. So you

301
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 4: know that we are in.

302
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 3: This final period of time.

303
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 4: That's why why start an outreach at the University of Pittsburgh,

304
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 4: Because we are tasked with let the whole world know

305
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 4: that Jesus is coming soon. Everywhere you go, tell them

306
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: that the Kingdom of God is near, heal their sick.

307
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 4: Those University of Pittsburgh students, many are struggling, many have

308
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 4: already become alcoholics at a young age, are on drugs.

309
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 4: They're not going to get help unless they get it

310
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 4: from the hand of God and from the power of

311
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 4: the Bible. And it's not just going to happen to him.

312
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 4: Somebody has to take it upon themselves to make it happen.

313
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 3: Can you say amen?

314
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 5: Hi?

315
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: So my name was Cassandra. I live in New York.

316
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 5: I'm from Calias, and I have a great testimony from

317
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 5: when I was at Jonathan's conference in Redlands. So I

318
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 5: had gone through breast cancer a year before or so

319
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 5: and gone through chemo, radiation and surgery, the whole gamut,

320
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 5: and they had been telling me that there was now

321
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 5: possibly a problem on the other side. And after I

322
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 5: did an MRI well, I shun conventional medicine. I decided

323
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 5: to believe in God for my healing. I canceled multiple

324
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 5: bioxies and had been handling it through faith in God

325
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 5: that he would heal me. And I exercised the practical

326
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 5: ways as well well. When I went to Redlands the

327
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 5: first night, Jonathan called me out of the crowd and

328
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 5: he said, you look like the healthiest person in the room,

329
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 5: but a healing comes over your body right now. And

330
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 5: I believe that that was the ceiling on my healing,

331
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 5: and just completely from God. What's great is that I

332
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 5: happened to have a doctor's appointment scheduled with my holistic

333
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 5: provider the next morning, and I went there and he said,

334
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 5: I don't think you have cancer. All the levels that

335
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 5: we look for that show people have cancer, you don't

336
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 5: have any of them. So thank the Lord and thank

337
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 5: Revival today Ministry for being a conduit of his yealing

338
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 5: in love.

339
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 4: Another thing I think we've decided to do, whether we

340
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 4: ever consciously decided to do it or not. There's a

341
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,959
Speaker 4: thing I learned in psychology class in tenth grade.

342
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 3: I never forgot it.

343
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 4: That class was so interesting to me that I never

344
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 4: took notes, and I got an A plus. I could

345
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 4: remember most of what the guy taught now because it was.

346
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: Very interesting to me.

347
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 4: One of the things we learned was a thing called

348
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 4: bystander apathy. If you got in a car accident on

349
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,479
Speaker 4: the way home from this church, you won't, but for

350
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 4: the sake of this this example, if you did, if

351
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,640
Speaker 4: a thousand people saw you get in the car accident

352
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 4: and you were bleeding, you have much much less of

353
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 4: a chance to get help than if one person saw you.

354
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 4: Because there's instances recorded all through history, Like there was

355
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 4: a lady in New York that there's either New York Chicago.

356
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 4: She was stabbed to death outside of an apartment building

357
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 4: in the sixties. Sixties, some people witnessed it and no

358
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 4: one called nine to one one. Why everybody thought somebody

359
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 4: else was going to do it. Whereas if one person

360
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,360
Speaker 4: sees it, then you think, if I don't do something,

361
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 4: this person's going to bleed out and die. I have

362
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 4: a responsibility to take this upon my shoulders, like I'm

363
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,239
Speaker 4: the only one that can do something about it. And

364
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 4: I think one of the down parts of there being

365
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 4: three hundred and fifty thousand churches in the United States

366
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 4: is everyone assumes that because we have a ton of

367
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 4: Christians that it's taken care of, but really very few

368
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 4: people are doing anything about it. But this church, God

369
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 4: has blessed it because we not only have large attendance,

370
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 4: somehow it has attracted people that don't just want entertained

371
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: in a message. They want to get filled with God's

372
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 4: power and go out and do something to rescue their generation.

373
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 4: This Sunday is going to be a major aid that

374
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 4: God's gonna put a fresh annoyting on you to be

375
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 4: a major problem to the kingdom of Hell.

376
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:07,959
Speaker 3: If you believe that, can you shout aloud? Amen?

377
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 4: So? Matthew twenty four go to verse thirty six. You

378
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 4: can put up on the screen new living translation. However,

379
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 4: no one knows the day or the hour when these

380
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 4: things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or

381
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 4: the Sun himself. Only the Father knows. When the Son

382
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 4: of Man returns, it will be like it was in

383
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 4: Noah's day.

384
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 3: In those days.

385
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 4: Before the flood, people were enjoying banquets and parties and

386
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 4: weddings right up until the time Noah entered his boat.

387
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 4: So how many you started following me around the COVID

388
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 4: lockdowns somewhere around there? You remember, one of the reasons

389
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 4: that I gave you hope is I said, there's not

390
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 4: gonna be some kind of collapse before the tribulation.

391
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 3: It's actually the opposite.

392
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 4: When everybody's saying peace and safety, then there'll be sudden destruction,

393
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 4: because Jesus.

394
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 3: Said before I return put the scripture back up.

395
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 4: Matthew twenty four thirty nine, people, it's thirty six, it's

396
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 4: thirty seven, thirty eight. In those days before the flood,

397
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 4: people were enjoying banquets, parties, and weddings right up until

398
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 4: the time the flood came.

399
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 3: Nobody knew what was happening. You know.

400
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 4: It's like when there was that tsunami in Southeast Asia.

401
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 4: All the animals could tell there was a change in

402
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,719
Speaker 4: barometric pressure and went way up on the mountains, and

403
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 4: all the tourists with their martinis and peanut dirty pinacladas

404
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 4: are sitting there on their phones, completely oblivious because they

405
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 4: weren't watching. They didn't notice that the ocean had receded

406
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 4: miles out into sea. But the animals could tell. And

407
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 4: the Bible says, there was like that Noah's deare. No

408
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 4: one saw it was coming until the door of Noah's

409
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 4: ark was shut.

410
00:20:58,720 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: And it'll be just like that.

411
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 4: But in the end times people are gonna be talking

412
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 4: Steelers football who they need to draft, which is fine,

413
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 4: but you have to keep your eyes on the most

414
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 4: important thing. The Bible says, all those who believe that

415
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 4: Jesus is coming back will keep themselves pure.

416
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,439
Speaker 3: It causes you to live a different way. Can you say, amen?

417
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 4: Thirty nine people didn't realize what was going to happen

418
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 4: until the flood came and swept them all away. Forty

419
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 4: two men will be working together in the field. One

420
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 4: will be taken the other left. Two women will be

421
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 4: grinding flour at the mill. One taken and the other left.

422
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 3: So you too, it was say me too.

423
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 4: You know when you read the Bible, it's not just

424
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 4: like a theerial or the ancient people.

425
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 3: It's written to you. So you too should learn a

426
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 3: lessen from.

427
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 4: This and keep watch and be prepared for you do

428
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 4: not know what day your lord is coming.

429
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 3: Forty three. Understand this, If.

430
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 4: A Pennsylvania or Texas homeowner knew exactly when a burglar

431
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 4: was coming, he'd have a shotgun out and a doctor

432
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 4: pepper cracked and be ready to have some fun. He

433
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 4: would keep watch and not permit his house to be

434
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 4: broken into. That's why thieves usually don't send RSVPs. Forty four.

435
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 4: So you must be ready all the time, everybody say,

436
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 4: I must be ready all the time, for the son

437
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 4: of man will come when least expected.

438
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 3: Forty five.

439
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 4: A faithful, sensible servant is one to whom the master

440
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 4: can give the responsibility of managing his other household servants

441
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 4: and feeding them. If the master returns and find that

442
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 4: the servant has done a good job, there'll be a reward.

443
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,679
Speaker 4: I tell you the truth, That master will put that

444
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 4: servant in charge of all he owns. But what if

445
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 4: the servant is evil and finx, My master won't be

446
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 4: back for a while, and he begins beating the other servants,

447
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 4: partying and getting drunk.

448
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 3: Watching in Dallas. You think Jesus wrote this to the

449
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 3: Dallas fort or the area.

450
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 4: About twenty five major ministries collapsed for doing that same thing.

451
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 4: That's what I like about what God has me doing.

452
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 4: I don't have time to get into any of that.

453
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 4: I don't even have time. Jonathan, did you hear what

454
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 4: this pastor in Pittsburgh saying about you? No, I'm not here.

455
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,679
Speaker 4: They can say what they want. I got work to do.

456
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 4: So when you stay on the go for God, there's

457
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 4: not time to sin, there's not time to gossip. There's

458
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 4: not time to take sides against your brothers. There's a

459
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 4: harvest field that needs reaped, and we're gonna reap.

460
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 3: In Jesus' name.

461
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 4: If I call for fifty one and there's not a

462
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 4: fifty one, just go to twenty five to one. But

463
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 4: if there's a fifty one, go to it and he

464
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 4: will cut the servant to pieces. That doesn't sound very

465
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 4: christ Like. It's Jesus talking and assign him a place

466
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 4: with the hypocrites in that place, I'll be weeping and

467
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 4: gnashing of teeth. Then the kingdom of heaven will be

468
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 4: like ten bridesmaids. Now he goes to that story about

469
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 4: the last generation of time and then goes right into

470
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 4: this story. Then the kingdom of heaven will be like

471
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 4: ten brides maids who took their lamp and went to

472
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 4: meet the bridegroom. Five of them were wise and five

473
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 4: were foolish. What separated them The five who were foolish

474
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 4: didn't take enough olive oil for their lamps, and the

475
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 4: five who were wise took extra oil. It was the

476
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 4: extra oil of you. Say another word, say overflow six

477
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 4: or sorry five. When the bridegroom was delayed, thought, g

478
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 4: Jesus hasn't come back.

479
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 3: Where is he? I mean they've been saying he's gonna

480
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 3: come back forever.

481
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 4: Put up Second Peter, chapter three, verse one, and then

482
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 4: I'll go back to Matthew twenty five. Everybody says them

483
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 4: was delayed. This is my second letter, this to the church.

484
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 4: This is my second letter to you, dear friends. And

485
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 4: in both of them, I've tried to stimulate your wholesome

486
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 4: thinking and refresh your memory. I want you to remember

487
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 4: what the Holy Prophet said long ago, and what our

488
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 4: Lord and Savior commanded through your apostles. I want to

489
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 4: remind you that in the last days, scoffers will come

490
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 4: mocking the truth and following their own desires. They'll say,

491
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 4: what happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again?

492
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 4: I watched you on YouTube a little bit that church

493
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 4: you went to. He's talking about Jesus coming back. My

494
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 4: grandfather was talking about how Jesus was coming soon. I mean,

495
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 4: they've been saying that forever the what happened to the

496
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 4: promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the time

497
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 4: of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the

498
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 4: world was first created. They deliberately forget that God made

499
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 4: the heavens long ago by the word of his command,

500
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 4: and he brought the earth out from the water.

501
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 3: And surrounded it with water.

502
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 4: Then God used that water to destroy the world with

503
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 4: a mighty flood. And by the same word, the present

504
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 4: heavens and earth have been stored up for fire. They're

505
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 4: being kept for the day of judgment when ungodly people

506
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:16,199
Speaker 4: will perish.

507
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 3: How many remember.

508
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 4: God said, never again will I destroy the world with

509
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 4: a flood, but the next destruction is going to be

510
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 4: by fire. And my dad, actually, I won't put words

511
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 4: in his mouth. Many people believe that this is a

512
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 4: foreshadowing of nuclear war, because when you think of writing

513
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 4: this in the first century, there was no way for

514
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 4: this to even be a thing that because it talks

515
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 4: about the heavens will melt and the elements will melt away. Well,

516
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 4: what explosion takes place in the air in the first century.

517
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 4: I mean, in the nineteenth century, nothing took exploded in

518
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 4: the air in the heavens. But you must not forget

519
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 4: this one thing, dear friends. A day is like a

520
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 4: thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years.

521
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 3: Is like a day.

522
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 4: The Lord isn't really being slow about his promise to return.

523
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 4: Let some people think, no, he's being patient for your sake,

524
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 4: he does. What does that mean? In Texas and here?

525
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 4: I mean, if you're humble enough, how many of you

526
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 4: if Jesus came eight years ago, if the rapture would

527
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 4: have happened, if those that were right with Christ were

528
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 4: called up off the earth, how many of you would

529
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 4: have been left behind if it happened eight years ago.

530
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 4: So they say so when people say, what's taken so long,

531
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 4: that's what's taken so long. He doesn't want any to perish,

532
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,199
Speaker 4: so he's giving more time for everyone to repent and

533
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 4: be saved. Now, I caught this scripture in my spirit,

534
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 4: and it has fueled everything I do because I made

535
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 4: a little logical connection.

536
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 3: If the only.

537
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 4: Reason why Jesus hasn't come back is he's waiting for

538
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 4: people to be saved, then instead of asking God to

539
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 4: bless my dreams, I decided God, I'm a vessel. I

540
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 4: present myself to you. Anoint me and empower me to

541
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 4: make your dream come to pass, and I'll go after

542
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 4: the lofe
