Is The Bible Earthly or Heavenly Interpreted?
let’s pray. Lord Jesus, father God, as we come before you this morning, father, we thank you Lord Jesus for for the word that you have been. Ministering unto us that your Holy Spirit, Lord Jesus, has been revealing to us and using us to touch a confused blind spiritual world out there in the church.
[00:00:20] And, a blind church father, those that are spiritually sleeping and not looking for your glorious second return. And Father, as we come before you this morning, father, we just, we thank you Lord for, sacrificing your life upon that cross, shedding your blood for the salvation of our souls. And Father, in looking, to us that were not even the people that you had grafted us in to the faith that Abraham’s children, the seed, which was Christ.
[00:00:49] And Father, we are grafted in by faith. And Father, you look upon us and call us also your children. And Father, we want to say that we love you, and we thank you for that. And I ask Father, that you guide my words and, use me today. I pray in Jesus’ name. Thank everybody for tuning in because they are
[00:01:07] let’s go ahead and start out with a video. And how we are taught. if you wanna say colleges, Christian universities, how to interpret the Bible. So first one if you would please,
[00:01:21] Our theological and hermeneutical. Now, hermeneutical is just a seminary word or a Bible college word hermeneutics refers to the proper interpretation of scripture. Uh, I’m currently chairman of the board of North Point Bible College and Seminary. All of our students have Hermeneutics one, hermeneutics two, because how we learn to interpret scripture, those that are going into full-time ministry, one of the most important things that is learned is how do I properly open the [00:02:00] Bible, read the Bible, interpret the Bible, and communicate the Bible.
[00:02:05] So these last four guardrails. On how to read and interpret the book of Revelation, our theological and hermeneutical. These are things that, uh, if I were teaching you in a classroom setting, uh, these are of utmost importance. So number two, interpret prophecy. Literally interpret prophecy. Literally
[00:02:32] Okay, guys, hear that. Interpret prophecy. Speaking specifically on Revelations. ’cause this is what he said in Revelations, how is he teaching that we should, in the church interpret prophecy scripture? How? Literally. Literally. So now we’re gonna be looking at other preachers,
[00:02:51] How they interpret the Bible, how they interpret prophecy. And what we’re gonna do is just listen to them and then we’re gonna go back to several books and we’re gonna listen to prophets. We’re gonna listen to the apostles, we’re gonna listen to the teachings of Jesus and we’re going to look at it literally, or can we look at it spiritually?
[00:03:13] Okay. So let’s go to Matthew chapter 4, verse 18 and 19. Okay? Nice, simpleWe’re just gonna go in Jesus. Walking by the Sea of Galilee. Saw two brother. Simon called Peter and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea, and they were fishers. Okay, so was that net literal? Yes, it was.
[00:03:35] Were they literal fishermen? Yes, they were. And he says, and he said unto them, follow me and I will make you fishers of men. Now you Christians, what does he mean? What did Jesus Christ mean when he said make you fishers of men? Are they literally going to be fishing men throwing a a net around people and pulling them [00:04:00] in?
[00:04:00] It’s 100% spiritual, isn’t it? That’s nice and simple stuff right there, isn’t it? It is. They are going to be catchers of men. Okay, so let’s go to the next one, please. Now don’t forget how simple that is because you already understand that being a Christian now. There’s sinners out there that’s never asked the Lord Jesus Christ to come into their life and they are spiritually blind.
[00:04:25] And this is so simple that we’re raised up in church, that we can see this very clearly. verily, very easy. But if you take somebody that has never read the Bible, they don’t know the teachings of Jesus Christ. They don’t know the teachings of the Apostle Paul and the 12 disciples. They do not know what that means.
[00:04:45] But you do because you’re in the church and you understand that Jesus Christ has came and caught you. Okay, let’s go to in Matthew chapter 15:10 and he called a multitude and said unto him, hear and understand now this is Jesus Christ. And he’s getting ready to speak and he’s getting ready to give guidance.
[00:05:10] to the children of. Okay. And what I mean by that, by the religious leaders, which would be of the law. So you’re talking about the religious Judaism, the sec, the teaching, the religion of Judaism. Okay. Of the law. And they have leaders and they have followers, which are all the children of Israel. Okay?
[00:05:32] Now, the 12 disciples, they were eating and they were drinking and they did not wash their hands. And they were with Jesus and they were eating and drinking and they didn’t wash their hands before they ate. And Jesus begins to speak, and this is what he said, okay? And he called the multitude and said unto them, hear and understand, not that which goeth into the mouth defile a man, but that which [00:06:00] cometh out of the mouth, that defile oath a man.
[00:06:04] so you understand what Jesus Christ is saying. That which is physical that goes into the mouth does not defile the man, but that which comes out of the heart, out of the mouth, that speak of defile of the man. Now, one is physical, one is spiritual because it’s what’s inside of you that what you speak out of your mouth.
[00:06:31] Defiles a man, But that which cometh out of the mouth. This defiles a man then came his disciples and said unto him, know so that the Pharisees were offended after they heard this saying, but he answered and said unto them. Every plant, which the heavenly Father hath not planted.
[00:06:53] Now we been studying the word and now we know that Jesus Christ talked about many different parables, that there is a field and the,seed was sowed. And an enemy came in and he’s sowed some stuff too. And he sowed weeds and briers, remember that? And thorns. And they all grew up together.
[00:07:13] And do you guys remember that? They wanted to go in there androot up the weeds? And he said, Nope, let ’em grow together, lest you pull up the root of the seed along with the weed. Okay? Now this is what Jesus says. And he answered and said, every plant, which the heavenly Father hath not planted shall be rooted up.
[00:07:35] Now guys, can you see that shall be rooted up? And it says. Let them alone. Listen, let them alone. Just like Jesus said, don’t root ’em up. Let ’em alone. They be blind leaders of the blind. Now, who’s Jesus Christ talking about? He’s talking about the religious leaders of the children of Israel, which is in Judaism.
[00:07:58] He says, let the [00:08:00] leaders that are blind lead the blind. And he says, and if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall. Do you guys see what Jesus Christ is talking about? They shall fall if it is possible for this spiritual leaders of Israel to lead the children of Israel to fall. Pretty simple stuff, isn’t it?
[00:08:26] That’s why them, leaders of the Pharisees, that’s why they were offended, because they understood what Jesus Christ was talking about. Then answered Peter and said unto him, declaring to us this parable. Now we just started reading this parable and Jesus said, hear and understand, and obviously Peter did not understand and he asked and he says, declare unto us this parable.
[00:08:52] And Jesus said, areye also yet without understanding, do not ye yet understand that whatsoever, intereth in at the mouth, goeth into the belly and is cast out into the drought. It does not matter what you take in because it just goes out into the sewer.
[00:09:15] Okay, he’s talking physical now I can turn that right there. Listen, turn right around and make it spiritual. Okay, that you can literally eat this garbage that these lion preachers are putting out there. You can literally hear it, you can literally take it into you and, and cast it out like it ain’t nothing.
[00:09:36] Don’t absorb any of it at all. Okay? Verse 18. But those things which proceed out of the mouth, you guys see that proceed out of the mouth, come forth from the heart and they defile a man.
[00:09:50] Now listen, you listen to these wicked preachers that are out there today that are, trying to get you, listen, to [00:10:00] take an early inheritance you can listen to it. And if you just. Cast it out. Now listen to me, cast it out. Just let it go to the sewer where it belongs. But if you allow it to come in spiritually and in your heart, you believe, and you profess that out of your mouth, that is what can defile you, make you unclean in the presence of our Lord and Savior.
[00:10:32] you come to church to get spiritual, didn’t you? You come here to learn spiritual things, those things that are written in the word. I want you to notice that in the teachings out of this church, we don’t read out of any other book. Not any other book, no other teachings, some things that really just baffle my mind that people come to the Lord Jesus Christ right now, whether they’re backslidden and fell away from the Lord or whether they’re coming into the kingdom right now by faith.
[00:11:07] And it is amazing that you can tell ’em about Jesus and tell ’em about the word. And once they begin to start opening the Bible, then they have so many other friends around that are saying, Hey, what you need to do is get this book and you need to read this book. You know, like God’s got a wonderful plan for your life.
[00:11:26] You know them kind of books and like, oh, here, you need to have this devotional right here that you can have a verse for 365 days of the year. That way you can meditate on this one quotation and find themselves not having enough time to read this, to read this. What’s wrong with reading this? What’s wrong with this?
[00:11:55] We’re coming together in one accord and one of mine, and we are studying [00:12:00] God’s word. And when we begin to start reading all these spiritual books and all these people that we put in spiritual authority, okay, like the man that we just listened to, I’m not putting him in heaven and I’m not putting him in hell because I’m not the judge.
[00:12:16] We are listening to his teachings and he’s telling us, read it literally. And we’re gonna see what that leads to when you do. A video. Okay, let’s play video.
[00:12:29] Sunday. If you want to buy a house or a property, whatever it is, bring the picture of it. Go and print it out, whether it’s a home, whether it’s a business thing, whatever it is that represents where you want, what you want. I saw Abraham walking in the promised land and immediately I understood when I saw him years ago, is how we got this building.
[00:12:58] You’ll possess the land. I said, you’ll possess the land,
[00:13:07] whatever
[00:13:11] that house, that property, that bus, whatever structure it is you want. God will use it for his glory. It’s a great setup for 2026, eh.
[00:13:22] Okay. That’s last week. These are the things that are being taught in the church, in the church. In the Pentecostal charismatic Evangelical church. Now you can let that come right in and let that go right out where it belongs, right into an outhouse.
[00:13:47] Or you can let that come in and you confess that right, there outta your mouth and that would make you unclean. That right there will defile [00:14:00] you. That’s the things that are out there that when a man gives his life to Jesus and he don’t want to take time to study them 66 books, he wants to go pick up other books because we have Christian friends that guide us to men’s teachings.
[00:14:19] Why are we not at least telling him, go read this book. Go read this character. Go read this man that was andGo read the faith of this man and go read the man that didn’t have no faith, the one that was challenged. Don’t read about their lives. Next, please, this is what Jesus said for out of the heart.
[00:14:44] Proceed if evil thoughts. Now you judge that preacher we just listened to that prophet we just listened to. Is that an evil thought? Is he not putting an evil thought in your mind that whatever you want, you bring a picture of it and you’re gonna bring it up to the altar? Listen, bring it up to the altar and we’re gonna pray and you shall receive that thing.
[00:15:11] Is that not an evil thought
[00:15:16] murders? Adulteries. These are the things that are within our man’s heart. Adultery, fornication, thefts. Thefts. You mean stealing? what are these preachers doing spiritually? What are they doing spiritually? It says false witnesses. False witnesses. False witnesses of who? False witnesses of what?
[00:15:49] Just not liars. They are false witnesses of Jesus Christ. They are false witnesses of the 12 disciples. They are [00:16:00] false witnesses of the kingdom of God. It’s spiritual blasphemers. You don’t think that them guys ain’t blaspheming the Holy Ghost? You don’t think that what they do, Jesus Christ doesn’t take it serious to his spirit.
[00:16:18] We have to be careful of these things. We have to be careful. We do not treat the Holy Ghost holy. If we did, we would be careful not to blaspheme. What does that mean? Using the Holy Spirit as a curse word? No, saying the Holy Ghost said something when he didn’t. That’s blasphem using the Holy Ghost’s name in vain.
[00:16:47] In vain, and using the Holy Ghost that you might get What you want is using him in a vain way because those things are not eternal.
[00:17:01] These are things that defile a man. That’s what Jesus said. These are teachings of Jesus. Teachings of Jesus,
[00:17:17] but to eat with unwashed hands, defile with not a man. That’s what Jesus said. Next, please. All they do, their leaves never wither and they prosper in how much that they do. In everything they do, they will prosper. That’s what the Bible says. That’s one scripture. Let’s read another one. Deuteronomy 28, 1 to 14, Deuteronomy 28, 1 to 14. If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully keep all his commands that I’m giving you today, the Lord, your God will set you on high above all the nations of the world.
[00:17:53] Now, what does that mean? I want if, if you’re gonna catch the the flow in the spirit of this church, I [00:18:00] want you to say something. Say I take the Bible. Literally. I take the Bible literally, wherever possible, wherever possible. And where it’s not possible, where it’s not possible. I searkh for the literal meaning I searkh.
[00:18:13] So we believe in literal hell. We believe in literal heaven. We believe Jesus came in a literal physical body, born of a literal virgin shed. His literal blood, there literally is a heaven. There’s literally a hell. Now, almost every church would agree with that. Sadly, it used to be a hundred percent of churches would agree with that.
[00:18:28] Now, in the last 20 years, that’s not true, but most still would. But then where Co Pastor Kofi and I would differ from many. If you’re gonna take the heaven parts literally, and you’re gonna take the hell part literally, and you’re gonna take the don’t commit adultery part literally, which we do, then why not take all of the blessing parts literally that God said he’ll bless you in the land that he is giving you.
[00:18:52] You and your descendants will build fine homes to live in. Take the whole thing literally, including the good parts where God promised good things for you. If you fully obey the Lord your God.
[00:19:04] Okay, now see how that same thought was there just like the prophet we listened to before about the house. It’s the exact same message people.
[00:19:15] It’s what flavor do you want? Many, many different flavors. You see where they’re putting that thought into your mind that Jesus Christ died on the cross, that you may have a abundant rich life. Build new houses, drive new cars. Now he says he is gonna make everything literal and we have to be able to divide this stuff out, people, because Jesus Christ literally came to this earth.
[00:19:51] Mary literally had a baby. Out of her virgin conception. [00:20:00] Now he says, we believe in a literal heaven and a literal hell. Now, when you go to a funeral and you open the casket, is that person literally that flesh literally in heaven? Is that flesh literally in hell? No. Well, how do you know? ’cause I’m looking at it.
[00:20:24] You could poke it. You could touch it. So you can’t tell me that they literally went to heaven or literally went to hell, but their spirit went somewhere. You see how we just divided between literal, physical, and spiritual? We gotta be able to divide it out. We just can’t listen to their words that have no teaching in them.
[00:20:48] Next please. Now, let’s look at this literally, because Jonathan Shuttlesworth just said, take it all literal. And when you can’t see it literal, then just make it literal. That’s what he said. Now, let’s read this. This is what Jesus said. I’m the bread of life. Now, is Jesus Christ a little piece of bread?
[00:21:14] No, he’s not. we can just go ahead and say, well, Jason, now you’re just being a smart ally. Okay? So let’s just say that Jesus Christ is comparing himself to a loaf of bread. Okay? So we can just separate that and make it nice and easy. Next, please. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness and are dead.
[00:21:36] Did the children of Israel eat physical manna in the desert? Yes they did. They scooped it up they literally ate it. And if they didn’t eat it within 24 hours and they took more than they needed, it turned into literal worms. Okay, next, please. This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof and not die.[00:22:00]
[00:22:00] I am the living bread which came down from heaven. And if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever. And the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. 52, the Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, how can this man give us his flesh to eat? How were they taking Jesus Christ’s words, literally.
[00:22:26] And it says, then Jesus said unto them, verily, verily, I say unto you, except ye, eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood. Ye shall have no life in you. Now you guys want to take out literally, well, Jonathan said take everything literally. When are we allowed to divide it out that we might understand?
[00:22:52] Listen, we might understand ’cause Jesus said hear and understand. He wants us to understand which is earthly, which is heavenly
[00:23:04] Except you eat, of the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood. Have no life in you. 54. Whosoever eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood. Half eternal life and I will raise him up in the last day for my flesh is meet deed. Now he, Jesus Christ just keeps on going. His flesh is meat deed. Now how you gonna take that?
[00:23:28] People now listen. We are not Roman Catholic. We are not Roman Catholic.They have many different beliefs. Now listen, many different beliefs. they believe that when they take communion, that the bread literally turns into the flesh of Jesus Christ and you eat it. And when you take communion and take of that cup, that when you take it and it enters into your mouth, [00:24:00] it literally turns into the blood of Jesus.
[00:24:03] Now this is one thing like, you know, the 96 Thesises that were nailed upon the Roman Catholic, door, that Martin Luther nailed, 96 questions, and this is one of the questions. How does it literally turn into the flesh and the blood of Jesus Christ?
[00:24:24] And this is where Martin Luther, how you have the Lutheran church that they do not, that they do not believe that the blood and the bread literally turns into the flesh of Jesus and the blood of Jesus. But they believe that partaking it and bringing it within you that you are one spiritually with Jesus Christ.
[00:24:47] Now, which way do you wanna believe people? Is it literal or is it spiritual? We do it by faith. And faith is what? Spiritual. How can you please God by faith? Believing that what you can’t see, listen, see with your physical eye. You have to have a spiritual eye. Next, please. He that Eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood dwell in me and I in him.
[00:25:27] John Chapter 6 57
[00:25:33] as the living father half sent me and I live by my father, so he, that eateth me even he shall live by me. This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as your father’s did eat bread. He, the Eatheth of this bread shall live forever.
[00:25:51] All right. I think I got my point across, Didn’t I let’s go next, Matthew Chapter [00:26:00] 13 We’re going to read some simple things. Now listen, simple things and we’re going to be making a determination. People, is this literal or is this spiritual? And we’re gonna look at these things two different ways that are taught in the church.
[00:26:17] Okay, now, here we go. I’m gonna make your brain hurt. What makes you think? here we go. This is Jesus speaking again. The kingdom of heaven is likened to a treasure hid in a field, the which, when a man has found he hath. Now listen to the teaching. When he finds the treasure, he hide it. And for joy thereof, goeth and selleth, all that he have and buyeth the field.
[00:26:50] Now we gotta ask ourselves the question is Jesus Christ. The treasure or are you the treasure? Because it can’t be both. You can’t have it both ways. These are two different teachings that are in the church. false teachers, they will say that Jesus Christ is the treasure. That’s what they say that you were seeking and you found Jesus and you went and sold everything that you had, to follow Jesus.
[00:27:32] And this is exactly what they’re gonna teach you in a church that wants all your money. this is the angle that they’re gonna take. That if you wanna follow Jesus, You gotta be willing to sell everything and walk away from everything that you have. To follow him because they’re gonna go to what Jesus asked the rich man to follow the law perfectly.
[00:27:54] he went sad because he wasn’t willing to sell everything that he had. And they’re gonna point you to that goal. There you go. [00:28:00] Or we can take this and make you the treasure. And Jesus Christ was in heaven. Yes, he was in heaven and he came down to this earth. He left everything that he had and he came down to earth, became like me and you, and humbled himself and made himself a servant.
[00:28:28] and he gave up everything that he had and he purchased you, bought you by his blood. That’s pretty simple stuff, isn’t it? And don’t you know that you’re worth something? Don’t you understand that you are a treasure unto God worth what money can’t even buy.
[00:28:58] That’s how much Jesus Christ love you, that believe in him, not just because you’re a human being, breathing on this planet because you believe in him.
[00:29:14] Now, which one is it? It’s 100% spiritual, isn’t it? People? We’re not looking at this literal. We’re looking at it. Spiritual next, please. This is what one of the disciples said in Philippians. It says, let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ. Let this thinking be in you. That also was in Jesus Christ.
[00:29:40] He says, who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God? Where’d he come from? He was with the Father, wasn’t he? He was at the very beginning. Let us make man in our image. And Jesus Christ was with the Father. He came from heaven and he came to this earth and he said, [00:30:00] being in the form of God, thought it not Robert to be equal with God.
[00:30:04] When he said, Yahweh is my Father. I came from the Father. Next, please. But made himself unto no reputation. He did not build his self and his character and his ministry up. He did not come to lift his name up. He came to lift the father’s name up. and took upon him the form of a servant.
[00:30:33] How did Jesus Christ come made himself a servant? These are teachings from our disciples, made himself a servant, and was made in the likeness of men and being found in the fashion as a man. He humbled himself. if the father asked his son to humble himself and we are supposed to be likening to his son, then we should not feel it.
[00:31:00] Some weird thing that God should also ask us to humble ourselves. Let this mind be within you. Humble yourself and become obedient unto death. He humbled himself all the way to death. And we find these preachers today, they’re not willing to humble themselves to death. They’re not willing to humble themselves.
[00:31:30] They want to exalt themselves by faith.
[00:31:36] Next, please. God also hath highly exalted him. See, when did his exaltment come? When did Christ, when did his exaltment come? Oh, we’ve seen it on, Palm Sunday. We’ve seen how people exalted him, Oh hell, king Jesus, Gonna make him King Palm Sunday, and comes riding into Jerusalem.
[00:31:59] By the next week [00:32:00] they was crucifying him. That’s how man lifts him up. but God lifted him up Therefore, God have highly exalted him and given him a name which is above every name. See, you gotta make it all the way to the end of your life, death. And if you make it and you’re found in Jesus Christ, you are found in love with Jesus Christ.
[00:32:24] You are found desiring the Son. That’s when you’re gonna get a new name. That’s when you are going to be exalted in the new world to come. That’s right. You heard me say it in the world to come. You shall be exalted with his son. Be patient saints. Be patient saints. Next please. Now let’s go to Matthew chapter 1345.
[00:32:58] Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a merchant man seeking goodly pearls.Who when he have found one pearl with great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it. Now question. Who’s the pearl? Is Jesus Christ the Pearl or, are you the pearl? You can’t have it both ways.
[00:33:26] Many of these teachers, they’re gonna teach you that Jesus Christ is the pearl, and I’m here to tell you today that you are the pearl of great price. That you cost Christ everything and he was willing to do it for you. That’s how much he loves you.
[00:33:54] Does any more have to be said?
[00:33:58] The kingdom of heaven is like unto a [00:34:00] net. Now notice all these things are worded the same way. The kingdom of heaven is like, see, it’s not the kingdom of this earth. The kingdom of this earth is like a man that’s searkhing for a treasure. That’s not what it said. That’s not what it said. It said The kingdom of heaven is like, this is how you make you the treasure.
[00:34:20] This is how you make you the pearl. The kingdom of heaven is likened to a net, likened unto a net that was cast into the sea and gathered up every kind next please, which when it was full, they drew into the shore and sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. So shall be the end of the world.
[00:34:48] Ah, stop. Now listen, we started at the very beginning. People remember very simply, Jesus said, Hey, I’ll make you fishers of men. And every one of us agreed that’s spiritual. He made the disciples fishers of men, and it’s because of the testimony of them 12 disciples that you believe The testimonies written in here, right here, written testimonies of the 12 disciples, the Apostle Paul, the conversion of the Apostle Paul, Jesus Christ, the prophets, and the Moses from the beginning of the creation all the way to what’s going to be the end.
[00:35:28] It’s all been given to us and we believe it. By faith, Jesus Christ didn’t reveal himself to you first. He revealed himself to them. You’re not first, you’re last. You’re not first into the kingdom by faith. You’re the last to come in to the kingdom by faith. Know your position. Know where we are at, at the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.[00:36:00]
[00:36:00] So shall the end of the world be alright. So are we gonna look at these scriptures that Jesus said literal? Now, first of all, we gotta ask ourselves, what is the sea? The sea is people, isn’t it? Now, if a net was casted out and Jesus said, I’m gonna make you fishers of men, and a net was cast out from the disciples and they brought in all manner of people, and it’s the same way that we got into the kingdom by faith, then those that are in the net are called Christians, followers of Jesus Christ.
[00:36:38] And the 12 disciples now out of that net, that believe their testimony. What’s gonna happen out of that net? Gonna separate good followers from bad followers. When does that take place? At the end of the world. That’s called the separation people. This is what’s happened spiritually in the earth. This in the earth As we live and we breathe.
[00:37:07] A separation is happening from the good versus evil. Next, please.
[00:37:18] And he also said there would be famines. Now I remember back in the seventies there was, uh, a lot of the academic, uh, greats were talking about this, the warning about famine. I remember the book by Charles Paddock Famines, 1975. Well, he was predicting the time when we would go into the age of famines that is, that there would be a famine, uh, a great famine somewhere in the world at all times.
[00:37:51] Well, starting with 75, it did start, and now today it’s, it’s a fact of life that we’re with all the
[00:37:59] okay now, [00:38:00] that’s Hay Lindsey, he had, um, obviously he’s passed away.
[00:38:04] He’s gone along with his book. I mean, it’s still there, but everything that he wrote in it ain’t gonna happen and it hasn’t happened. Okay. Now, how does he read the Bible? How does he read it? When he sees the word famine, he makes it literal. He makes it an earthly thing. Okay. It now. He says it started in 1975, this thing that was prophesied, that a famine is going to come to the Earth.
[00:38:35] Now all we gotta do is don’t go to another preacher’s book, another prophetic book, or go have somebody speak a tongue overs that we can’t understand. All we gotta do is go to the book Amos and this is what it says.
[00:38:47] Behold the days come sayeth the Lord that I will send a famine in the land. Not a famine of bread, nor of thirst, nor of water, but of hearing the words of the Lord. You guys see that now what Amos talked about. Is it spiritual or is it physical? Spiritual, isn’t it? See, we gotta be able to divide this out.
[00:39:15] We cannot follow preachers that say you have to read the Bible literally to be able to understand it. Because if we have that mindset, when we do go to the book of Revelations, guess how we’re gonna make it
[00:39:29] Now when the pit opens, this will manifest on earth. In the tribulation period, there is a really dark smoke that comes bellowing out. Now when I, what, what it, it doesn’t say dark smoke, it just says a smoke. Now when I think of this, immediately I start thinking about like a volcanic eruption. That’s what I immediately began to think about is a volcanic corruption.
[00:39:51] So, as I. Look at this verse, and I see this smoke, I’m, I know that the smoke is coming underneath the earth. It’s [00:40:00] there in the with fire. And as the pit opens, this smoke comes up. And this is really, to me, very intriguing
[00:40:06] okay, now. When he reads. Now listen, he’s reading chapter nine in Revelations, and as he’s reading this, how does he interpret the scriptures, the smoke rising out of a pit? How does he interpret it?
[00:40:20] He’s reading the Bible literally. So he’s gonna make it a literal eruption, a volcanic eruption that is going to be so enormous that as the earth is rotating and the smoke comes out, that it’s literally going to dampen listen or put the sun in the moon and the stars behind clouds. Okay, now let’s make it spiritual.
[00:40:47] And the gates of hell or the pit was opened and of the fire in the smoke that it came and that it clouded, listen, spiritual and it. Made the sun go dark. Jesus Christ. You heard me? Jesus Christ. Now you tell me a teaching in the church right now that takes away Jesus, but yet puts you in the kingdom of God.
[00:41:23] Zionism it is, isn’t it? Next, please,
[00:41:28] We have appreciated so much the years that you have spent in dedicated service to the Lord in, in preaching, uh, God’s prophetic word, and also in, uh, emphasizing the importance of the rapture of the church, you know? Tim, when I first got St, I grew up in an non-millennial church and I didn’t, I’d never even heard of the rapture.
[00:41:49] I, I 35 years old. You asked me what the rapture was. I’d say it was a sensation you feel when your girlfriend kisses you. I didn’t know anything about it, but when I started studying, and you have to, [00:42:00] you’ll, you’ll admit this Bible prophecy’s not the easiest thing in the world to study. Oh yeah. I mean, you really have to study and when I started studying it, I prayed, Lord.
[00:42:08] I’m gonna focus on your word, but I need some help and I want you to lead me to a book that will help me. And he led me to a book called Revelation Illustrated, made Plain Praise God. And that was the very first book ever read on Bible prophecy. And you were the author, is that right? That’s right. And I loved it.
[00:42:24] And it began to open up everything for me and to help me to understand that the Bible Bible just means what it says. Henry Morris wrote an, wrote a commentary on the book of Revelation. And in the beginning he said the book of people, I’m writing this because the book, people tell me the book of Revelation is hard to understand.
[00:42:40] He said, it’s not hard to understand. It’s hard to believe. If you will believe it, you will understand it. And that’s so true, Tim. Oh yeah.
[00:42:48] These creatures are gonna go around and sting people and they will not be able to die or anything for five months. This is a very, very horrific thing. Uh, I’m sorry. Uh, verse six. And in those days, men will seek death and they will not find it. They will long to die. And death f flees from them. It’s terrifying.
[00:43:08] It’s so, so incredibly painful. I remember, uh, when I was pregnant with one of the kids and I had one of those sciatic nerve things, for those of you who’ve had sciatic nerves, it is like I couldn’t. Sit. I couldn’t stand, I couldn’t lay down. I cried all the time. I was like, I couldn’t move, and everything hurt.
[00:43:26] And that’s just a small little glimpse of what it would be like 24 7 to be stung by one of these creatures where you can’t get away from it. You just, you just can’t. Um, all right. So. Let’s talk about what these little guys look like now. I don’t know how big they were. That’s the thing. It says locustts.
[00:43:43] So we think locustts. We think scorpions. They could have been huge. We really don’t know, but this is what they actually look like. Let’s put this up on. Here’s the picture here, and I’ll read this and you can look at this little guy too, ’cause he’s gonna go off of there. The appearance of the locustt was like [00:44:00] horses prepared for battle and on their heads appeared to be crowns like gold.
[00:44:05] And their faces were like the faces of men. They had hair like the hair of a woman, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions. They had breastplates like breastplates of iron.
[00:44:15] Now how is she reading the scriptures? Literally. See, that’s why. When the rapture takes place in the seven year tribulation, it’s gonna get so bad on the second half, the last three and a half years that these things are gonna come and they’re going to go after people, and you’re gonna run for your life and we’re not gonna be here.
[00:44:41] So we don’t have to worry about that. But if you don’t receive Jesus Christ and believe in the rapture, then you’re gonna be left behind and these are the things you’re gonna have to deal with. And is that what you want? So you need to give your heart to Jesus now, and them are the teachings that gets people to come into the body of Christ by faith, by scaring the hell out of them.
[00:45:03] Okay, next please. Now you get on the internet and this is what, these are the things that they are portraying, and this is the image that you get when you make it literal. This is what you get when you put all the things that John described at the end. Hey, the six seal people, there’s only seven. There’s only seven.
[00:45:31] The six, and this is what it’s going to look like. Now we’re gonna know exactly where we are in scripture. When you see these things flying around, you ain’t never gonna see these things flying around, but I am gonna show you where they are spiritually.
[00:45:48] now this is called the Image of the Beast.
[00:45:52] This is the movie I recommend that every single one of you get on the internet and go watch it. It’s there. [00:46:00] It’s free. Don’t cost you a dime. Does cost you about two hours of your life and you need to sit down. And these are the movies. Now listen, these are the movies that they used to come and bring a projector to all the assembly of God churches, okay, down in 19 72, 73, and 1974.
[00:46:18] Okay? And they would go around through the years and come to your churches, and this is where they would come and show this at nighttime to your people that go to church on Sunday night. And that people would have Bible studies in their houses. And these people go around and they would show these movies and say, this is what it’s gonna be like.
[00:46:39] During the tribulation. So you need to believe in Jesus and the rapture so you can get outta here. Okay? And I cut a little bit of this out and I want you to see what I was raised up with, okay? I want you to see what I was raised up with and pay attention to what you see, what’s happening. Okay? Next, please.
[00:46:58] little religious fanatic. My grinning face is going to be the last thing you ever see before your head falls in the basket.
[00:47:13] Come on.
[00:47:32] You know, it’s taken us years to catch you, and I can’t say it hasn’t been a challenge. Yeah. Well, you don’t have David.
[00:47:58] [00:48:00] Phil. That’s the kind of stuff I was raised up on. That’s the same thinking when you go get a movie of Left Behind and all the series and them producers make it all literal. That’s what you get. Do you see when. People are raised up and they are taught these things in the church. And as you’re a little kid and you see a kid being pulled out of a cave and they’re coming after you andwhat kid wants to be left behind in a seven year tribulation and deal with that
[00:49:25] Now, that’s what happens when you read Revelations and take it literally. This is what happens when you listen to the preachers that tell you when you read your Bible. It’s all literal, and this is what you get next, please,
[00:49:45] The link between drones and end times prophecy. Could the mysterious locustts described in Revelation nine actually be drones? Yes, drones. The [00:50:00] cutting edge technology we see buzzing through our skies today. It sounds wild, but stay with me because what we’re about to uncover might completely change how you see biblical prophecy and modern technology.
[00:50:15] okay, now, do you see where that’s coming from? They’re saying that they were wrong. How they interpreted the scriptures and they that made them movies and them teachings from them books. Those Christians right there that made this video, they’re saying they were wrong. It was drones, but what are they making it?
[00:50:43] They’re still interpreting scriptures. Literally. You guys get it literally. Next, please. Now let’s go to Deuteronomy. Okay? Now we’re not gonna read no other teachings. We’re not gonna read any other books and prophecy clubs and none of that kind of stuff. We’re just gonna stick to these 66 books. That’s all we’re gonna do, and let’s begin to read that.
[00:51:12] We might understand what the tail represents. Okay? It says, and the Lord shall make the, the head and not the tail, and thou shall be above only. Now, these are promises made to the children of Israel. These are promises made to the to Abraham’s children. These are promises made to Isaac’s children. These are promises made to Jacob’s children.
[00:51:37] Jacob’s name was changed to Israel. Therefore now they are called the children of Israel and you are grafted in. To those that believe with those before Christ came, you are grafted into that covenant that was made to that people, okay? And as you are grafted in by faith [00:52:00] in Jesus Christ or through Jesus Christ, now you are in one faith that believe in his son, along with Abraham.
[00:52:10] That’s not too hard to figure out. Now if you are one of them by faith, then this word, you can believe this word for you and you can say, and the Lord shall make thee the head and not the tail. He shall make me the head. Now is that you literally gonna be the head or is Jesus Christ the head? Which one.
[00:52:38] And if you are one with Christ, then you are one thinking, listen, thinking. Now are we gonna think literal or are we gonna think spiritual? Well, you tell me where Jesus is at because that’s how I wanna think. He’s in heaven, isn’t he? Well, I want to be with him, so I’m gonna think heavenly. And it says, and thou shall be above only.
[00:53:01] Above what? Above earth. If we believe and be the head and believe in his son, then we are going to be above only. That’s all 100% spiritual, and thou shall not be beneath. Now look what’s beneath earth. What’s beneath earth? Hell, and it says. and if that thou harken into the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command me this day to observe and to do them, listen, we just can’t be hearers only.
[00:53:42] We gotta be doers, don’t we? It’s those that hear, listen, and obey, and those that obey, understand. See, you can hear and understand you can. Next [00:54:00] please. now this is Isaiah chapter nine, verse 14. Therefore, the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail. Now you’re like, man, are you kidding me? Yep.
[00:54:15] Here we go. This is what the Lord said to Isaiah that he is gonna cut the head and the tail off, not just the tail but the head. And it says, branch and rush. Now listen, branch and Rush. He is going to cut them off and it says in one day. Next please. And the ancient and honorable, listen, the ancient and the honorable, he is the head.
[00:54:45] Those that led are the head. Now do we follow after them in the law of Moses anymore? No. That head’s been cut off and it says, and the prophet, that Teacheth lies. He is the what? What is he? He’s the tail Isn’t he? A prophet that teaches lies a false prophet? He is the tail let’s go ahead, since we’re gonna be talking about locust and scorpions and we want pictures, well, let’s just go ahead and let’s look at a picture of a scorpion, because these are the things that Revelations Chapter Nine describes now.
[00:55:30] What part of that scorpion represents a false prophet? What part? The tail doesn’t it. Next, please. Now do you guys see that right there? That’s the stinger. I want you guys to take a good look at it. Next please. Now Revelations chapter nine, verse 10. It and they had [00:56:00] tails likened into scorpions. They had tails likened into scorpions, and there were, and their, and there were stings in their tails.
[00:56:12] Their sting was in their tail. Let’s look at it, please. Now you guys see that? Let’s look at the end of that tail. Let’s look at where that sting is at next please.
[00:56:27] Ezekiel chapter two, verse one.
[00:56:34] Here we go. And he said unto me, son of man, stand upon thy feet and I will speak unto thee. And the spirit entered in, in, I’m sorry, into me when he had spa unto me. Now, where did the spirit go? Go to? Prophet Ezekiel, where did the spirit go? Went inside of him. Listen to this. This is 100% spiritual. This is why we read the Bible.
[00:57:03] Jesus Christ is 100%. By faith it’s 100% spiritual, 100%. Oh, it was a physical thing that he came. But it’s also a physical thing that he left and now it is spiritual. And now those things are hid. Listen hid from people’s eyes, just like he went and found a treasure and he hid it. You can’t see it.
[00:57:30] Your eyes have gotta be open spiritually. And the spirit entered into me when he spoken to me, and he set me up on my feet that I heard him when he spoke. So when Ezekiel heard the spirit speak to him, where did the voice come from? Came with inside of him, with inside of him, not outside of him. Not outside that his ear, listen, that his physical ear heard the spirit, but [00:58:00] his spiritual ear with inside of him heard the spirit speak and it says, and he said unto me, son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel to a rebellious house.
[00:58:16] That hath rebelled against me. they and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day, for they are Impudent children and stiffed hearted.
[00:58:29] I do send thee unto them and thou shalt say unto them, thus sayeth the Lord. So the Spirit is speaking within him and he is hearing him spiritually. And he says, to Ezekiel, and I’m going to send you to the children of Israel. And when I speak, say thus sayeth the Lord.
[00:58:48] verse five. And they, which will hear, they will hear or whether they will forebear, whether they hear or whether they don’t hear. For they are a rebellious house, shall know that there have been a prophet among them. Here we go. This is, this is the verse that we’re after right here. This is it.
[00:59:11] It says, and thou son of man, be not afraid of them. Listen to ’em. Be not afraid of the children of Israel. Being not afraid of their words, though. Briers and thorns be with thee. Where are the Briers and the thorns gonna be with Ezekiel. He is going to be amongst the Briers and the thorns now. I do a lot of shed hunting.
[00:59:37] I do a lot of walking in the woods and I’m telling you what, you ever been caught in the middle of a Brier patch? You ever been caught in a, in a thorn patch before? Looking for them? Sheds them deer antlers laying in there because them deer love laying in them places. I know what it’s like to be in a Brier patch and the Lord told Ezekiel, they are going to be among you.
[00:59:59] You’re [01:00:00] gonna be in the Brier patch. And it says, Briers and thorns be with the, and thou does dwell among scorpions. Listen, scorpions, thou dwell among scorpions. Be not afraid of their words. Be not afraid of the words of the scorpions, nor be dismayed at their looks. Though they be a rebellious house.
[01:00:30] where did he say? He said they’re scorpions. We’ve already learned through the word that the tale is a false prophet. The liar. next please. Now look at the end of that scorpion tail Look what it looks like. Now look at that thorn. Look at that Brier. See that? What that look like. It’s representing the exact same thing.
[01:01:02] What are the thorns in the field? People. False prophets. Many stories, many examples. One way. Saying the exact same thing over and over and over, and it’s 100% spiritual. Next, please. Now, what have we learned? Listen to me. What have we learned? The false prophet is the tale, and it can be of a scorpion, yes or no.
[01:01:44] Now, let’s read Revelations. Nine 19 it says, and their power is in their mouth. Listen in their mouth, and in their tales. [01:02:00] Now, what does the tale represent? What they speak their false prophets, their false prophet. They’ve come and they’ve spoke and they’re Briers, and they sting and they poke, and the things that they speak out of their mouth, the things that they speak out of their mouth, that people believe, they take it within them and then they speak it back out and they defile themselves within the teachings of Wicked men.
[01:02:36] It’s 100% spiritual people. It’s 100% spiritual. Next, please. Now.
[01:02:49] Now let’s go to the body of the scorpion because that body represents something. See the end of that tail, that scorpion represents something and that tail represents something, and now that body represents something. It’s a representation. We’re not gonna take it literal because we’re gonna have all these bumblebees going around going after us.
[01:03:16] And it ain’t literal. It’s 100% spiritual and just like they teach you to run from that, that nasty, wicked thing, ’cause I’ve been left behind and it’s coming, it’s gonna come and literally sting me, and the pain’s gonna hurt for five months. We’re gonna run from it spiritually. Don’t tell me you wouldn’t run from that thing if you literally seen it.
[01:03:41] So if we see it spiritually, why wouldn’t you run from it? Why wouldn’t you run for your life? Jesus said perilous times. It’s gonna be perilous times that ain’t just talking about storms and tornadoes and earthquakes and hailstorms and [01:04:00] bad winters and and drought places, and all kinds of floods and all these things and tornadoes and hurricanes thats not
[01:04:09] All talking about talking about a man’s soul. Talking about the things that are being taught to the people that are supposed to be believing in the son. It’s perilous times. That you have those that are in the church, that they would choose Israel, the Jewish people over you believing in his son.
[01:04:34] These preachers that are Christian Zionists, they would choose that temple mount that ain’t even got a temple on it yet. They would choose that mountain over you. And you’re gonna tell me that’s not a lie.
[01:04:55] Now what does this body represent? It says, well, we gotta learn what it is. What is a scorpion? What is a locust? These words that say they are likening to, they are like, okay, so it says, and God said, let us make man in our image. After our likeness and let him have dominion over the fish, dominion over the air, and dominion over cattle, and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creepeth.
[01:05:23] You guys see that over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Next, please we’re gonna jump up to Genesis chapter six, verse 20. I’m trying to make this as simple as I can. And I want to pull something to your attention. Okay. That probably something’s never been pointed out that you might be able to think like this.
[01:05:47] It says of the fouls of the earth after their kind and of cattle, after their kind and of every creeping thing of their kind. Now this is where God is speaking to Noah to build an ark, and we’re seeing the [01:06:00] list of things that are going to be saved. Things that are going to be saved. And humans are, are in that list, okay, in that list.
[01:06:08] But there’s only eight that got in. But humans, were, were on that list. And it says, after the fouls of the kind, the cattle of the kind and every creeping thing of the earth after his kind two of every sort shall come into the, to keep alive.
[01:06:25] Now, this is what we’re taught right here, This is what we’re taught all the way from when we go to Sunday school and we color our books all the way to when you’re sitting in here and that we are taught that two by two went into the ark until you come to the big class and you begin to understand that those things that came two by two were unclean animals.
[01:06:48] And if you go read, you’re gonna find out that they came in by sevens. Those that are clean came in by sevens. They had to have animals to sacrifice people.
[01:07:01] Next, please. It says, go forth of the ark thou and thy wife, and thy sons and thy sons wives. With the bring forth with the every living thing that is in the of all flesh, both of foul and cattle. And of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, that they may breed abundantly in the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon the earth.
[01:07:29] See, he even spoke to the creeping things. Could you imagine? Okay. I mean there’s the ark and it’s not just two by two, it’s by sevens also. we don’t color pictures that, that look like that, that those things entered into the ark also.
[01:07:48] Those are the things that came in. You don’t have a picture of a big old tarantula, you know, male and female tarantula coming into the ark and going, woo-hoo. Okay. We don’t see the [01:08:00] centipede coming You don’t see the snakes coming on in into the ark, do you? You don’t see them things. But they’re mentioned, ain’t they?
[01:08:09] They’re mentioned. They represent something. Next, please.
[01:08:19] Now let’s go to the law. We’re jumping into Moses, we’re jumping into the law. We’re jumping into him being on the Mount. he is writing the five books Okay. Of the Torah. And this is what we find in the law, in the Levitical law, written to those that are supposed to be leaders spiritually of the children of Israel.
[01:08:45] And this is what Moses said. Or if a soul touch any unclean thing, this is what God spoke through Moses. If a soul touch any unclean thing, whether it be a carcarse of an unclean beast or a carcarse of an unclean cattle, or a carcars of an unclean creeping things, and if it be hidden from him, that means he didn’t know that he touched something that was dead.
[01:09:11] He didn’t even know he says, of an unclean thing. That is hid from him. He also shall be unclean and guilty, so it doesn’t matter if it was hidden, you didn’t even see it, you’re guilty. That’s pretty rough, isn’t it? That’s pretty rough that you would find yourself guilty not even knowing that you did it.
[01:09:33] See, I don’t know if you guys ever do this very often, but there’s so many times that we think that we’re right and. I know that I pray many times andwhen I go to the Lord and I say, Lord, I ask you to forgive me the things that I speak out of my mouth that are not right. [01:10:00] I ask Lord Jesus that when I speak outta my mouth and I think that they’re right and I don’t even know that they’re wrong.
[01:10:11] I asked Lord that you would forgive me because I didn’t know how many of you have ever prayed like that, or do you just believe that everything that you speak outta your mouth is true and divine and there’s no way that you can be wrong? We need to ask the Lord to forgive us of things that we think that we’re right about.
[01:10:38] That he might have mercy upon us and we find ourselves through the blood of Jesus that when we touch something unclean, whether we knew it or not, whether we’re right or we’re wrong, he’ll forgive us. We will not be guilty of it.
[01:10:58] Next, please. Leviticus 1142. Whosoever goeth upon the belly whatsoever, goeth upon all four or whatsoever have more feet. Among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat for they are an abomination. If you eat these creeping things, it is an abomination. It’s wrong. Next, please.
[01:11:36] Now, this is what Hosea said in the book of Hosea, chapter two, verse 18. Now, in that day, will I make a covenant for them with the beast of the field? Stop. Now, Hosea is a prophet speaking about the covenant that is going to come. [01:12:00] Through one that is going to come through the tribe of Judah. Jesus Christ is the one that is gonna make a New Testament.
[01:12:07] Now listen And them with beasts of the field and with the fouls of heaven and with the creeping things of the ground, you mean? Jesus Christ is gonna make a covenant with animals in creeping things in the fouls of the air. Really? What about the fish? What about the fish? He don’t make a covenant with the fish.
[01:12:32] See, we gotta ask ourselves something. Is this literal or is this spiritual? See, I’m gonna make your brain hurt. You’re gonna have to think. Well think about what. What the prophets said, what the prophets taught, what Moses said, what Moses taught, what Jesus said gonna make you think. Think on these things, won’t you go?
[01:12:56] Think about what David said. Instead of thinking about how much money you can get in your pocket, or how big of a house that you can get, or a fancy car, or another house, or a fishing boat, or what, it doesn’t matter what it is that you Begin to put your heart and your thoughts upon Jesus Christ. Next please.
[01:13:16] Now in Acts chapter 10, verse 10, it says, and he became very hungry. This is the one of the disciples, Peter, and it says and he became very hungry and would have eaten, but while they made ready, he fell into a trance. And Saw Heaven opening a certain vessel descended into him, as it were, been a great sheet knit at four corners and let it down into the earth.
[01:13:46] Wherewith we’re all manners of four footed beasts of the earth and wild beasts and creeping things, and the fouls of the air. Now you gotta get a look at this vision of what Peter’s describing that he saw, because he’s seeing all these [01:14:00] animals. He’s seeing all these creepy things. the same things that were saved upon the ark.
[01:14:05] The same things that were written in the law. The exact same thing. The same thing that Hosea said. covenant is gonna come and he’s gonna make it with cattle. He’s gonna make it with creeping things, and he’s gonna make it with things that have four legs that walk upon this earth and all about you.
[01:14:24] But we got two legs. We got two legs, not four. We need to know, is he talking about animals or is he talking about me and you?
[01:14:36] And there came a voice from him. Rise Peter. Kill and eat. But Peter said, not so Lord, for I have never eaten anything that is common and unclean. You guys see that? He has never eaten Anything like that. Why? Because it’s in the law that you would be unclean if you did. And he said, I’m not doing it Lord.
[01:14:58] No. Next please. And the voice fake into him again the second time. What God have cleansed that call not thou common. This was done three times and the vessel was received up again into heaven now in Acts 10 17. And while Peter doubted in himself what this vision should have meant, listen.
[01:15:23] Peter was doubting. He didn’t know what did this mean? What did this mean? That I seen these things, that God would tell me to partake and eat of these things that are unclean? And he says, now Acts chapter 11, verse 12, and we’re jumping up. and the spirit baed me.
[01:15:42] Go with them. Nothing doubting. Moreover, the six brethren accompanied me and we entered into the man’s house. This is where he left the rooftop. After he had the vision and their angel appeared, and came and brought Peter to the man’s house. It says, and he [01:16:00] showed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, send men to Joppa and call for Simon, whose name is Peter, who shall tell the words wherebythy house shall be saved.
[01:16:15] And as I begin to speak, the Holy Ghost fell upon them. These are the men that Peter went to and they were all Gentiles. And it says, and as I began to speak and the Holy Ghost fell upon them as on us at the beginning, verse 16, then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water be ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
[01:16:42] Verse 17. For as much then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, that I could withstand God when they heard these things they said. They held their peace and glorified God saying, then hath God, also listen. Then God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.
[01:17:08] Now, what did the sheet go back and read the whole chapter. Read the two chapters. Read your Bible and it’s going to teach you. What did the net represent? Unclean things. And creeping things was in that net. And when he went, Peter understood the vision that the Gentiles represented the creeping things.
[01:17:39] Now what does the body listen? What does that body liken to a scorpion?
[01:17:48] What does it represent? What does that body of a scorpion represent? Revelations chapter nine, verse 10. And they had tales likened [01:18:00] into scorpions. What’s the tail represent? People. What’s tail represent? False prophet, doesn’t it? What’s that Stinger represent? Lying, prophet liars. Okay, now what’s that body represent,
[01:18:14] Gentile. Represents Gentiles. Where’s this message coming from? People? Where does this message coming from in the end day right now? Where is the false prophet message coming from? It’s definitely a special breed. You got that right? Represents the Gentiles that have came into the kingdom of God, and it is 100% spiritual, 100%.
[01:18:47] Now, there’s many parts of this in the end days, and we just got through two parts. two parts of this one body. Show me a picture at the very beginning
[01:18:56] There you go, guys. See that? Now we got a lot of other parts to go through, don’t we, people? I’ll see you next Sunday. Make you want to go home and read your Bible. Doesn’t it make you want to go home and read your Bible? how did we just read them verses
[01:19:14] Did we read them literally, or did we read them spiritually? And when our hearts are on the Lord Jesus Christ and we ask the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive us, and when we humble ourselves, he is faithful. He is faithful. open your eyes. he will open your eyes that we might be able to see spiritually, and we’re gonna see we’re right before the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, right before it.
[01:19:47] It’s not just the world and the things happening in the world. I’m not saying discard the things happening in the world. I’m saying look at all the things that are happening in the world. Now open your eyes and look and [01:20:00] see where the church is at, and it is surely right before the coming of a Lord Jesus Christ.
[01:20:07] The stand. Father God, as we come before you, Lord Jesus, father. I asked Father that all of us Lord would have a, a truly repentant heart, a truly humbled heart that Father, that we would come and Father, we would get alone with you and we would shut the world out, father, and we would confess out of our mouth that Father, that we are unbelievers, that we have been led astray.
[01:20:33] And I ask Father, that those that ask for forgiveness, that you are faithful and true to forgive. And Lord Jesus, you said that one that is truly hungry and desireth after Holy Ghost and after truth, father, that you would not give them a scorpion, that you would give them true bread, which is you.[01:20:53] I pray, Lord Jesus, that those that come to you and a humble heart. Father, those that come and bring themselves low. Lord Jesus, I pray Father, that you would not give them a scorpion, but you would give them your flesh to eat, and I pray this in Jesus’ name. Everybody said amen. Amen.
