00:10 IT'S THE MOST READ BOOK IN THE WORLD, 00:12 SELLING CLOSE TO 4 BILLION COPIES 00:14 OVER THE PAST 50 YEARS. 00:16 THE BIBLE IS AN AMAZING BOOK, UNLIKE ANY OTHER. 00:20 ALTHOUGH IT WAS WRITTEN OVER A PERIOD OF AROUND 1,500 YEARS 00:23 BY 40 DIFFERENT PEOPLE ON THREE CONTINENTS, 00:26 THE BIBLE MAINTAINS INCREDIBLE HARMONY 00:29 THROUGHOUT ITS 66 BOOKS. 00:31 A LONG LIST OF BIBLE PREDICTIONS HAVE COME TO PASS 00:34 THAT CONFIRMS SCRIPTURES ARE DIVINELY INSPIRED, 00:37 BUT NONE OF THEM WERE DRAMATICALLY FULFILLED 00:39 THAN 125 PROPHECIES ABOUT THE MESSIAH 00:42 THAT WERE FULFILLED TO PERFECTION 00:44 IN THE LIFE OF JESUS. 00:46 VARIOUS OLD TESTAMENT BOOKS PREDICT WITH GREAT PRECISION, 00:50 THE PLACE OF HIS BIRTH, 00:51 HIS TRIAL, THE MANNER OF HIS CRUCIFIXION, 00:53 THE TIMING OF HIS RESURRECTION, 00:55 AND MANY OTHER ASPECTS OF HIS LIFE. 00:57 ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN, THE DOZENS OF PROPHECIES 01:01 AND PREDICTIONS ABOUT HIS LIFE 01:02 COULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED BY CHANCE ALONE. 01:05 JESUS IS THE BIBLE'S CENTRAL FIGURE, BUT WHO IS HE? 01:10 AND HOW IS YOUR LIFE AFFECTED BY HIS? 01:13 JOIN ME NOW, AS WE TAKE A CLOSER LOOK 01:15 AT THIS HERO OF REVELATION. 01:22 OUR PRESENTATION TONIGHT DEALING 01:23 WITH THE HERO OF REVELATION 01:25 IS PART OF OUR PROPHECY ENCOUNTER SERIES. 01:28 THIS IS REALLY A NEW SERIES, WE CALL IT PROPHECY ENCOUNTER 01:33 BECAUSE WE'RE HOPING THAT THROUGH THE STUDY OF PROPHECY 01:36 THAT PEOPLE WILL ENCOUNTER THE HERO OF REVELATION. 01:40 AND I THINK WE ALL KNOW WHO THAT IS. 01:42 MATTER OF FACT, IF YOU READ THE FIRST WORDS IN REVELATION, 01:46 IT'S NOT A REVELATION OF THE BEAST, 01:48 IT'S NOT A REVELATION OF THE ANTICHRIST. 01:50 PEOPLE SAY, "I WANT TO READ 01:51 ABOUT THE ANTICHRIST IN REVELATION." 01:53 ARE YOU AWARE THE WORD ANTICHRIST 01:55 DOES NOT APPEAR IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION? 01:58 IT'S IN THE LETTERS OF JOHN. 02:00 THE BOOK OF REVELATION IS ABOUT JESUS. 02:03 HE IS THE CENTRAL FIGURE, 02:04 BUT NOT JUST THE BOOK OF REVELATION. 02:07 THE WHOLE BIBLE IS ABOUT JESUS 02:09 AS YOU'LL DISCOVER IN OUR STUDY TONIGHT. 02:11 FIRST VERSE, REVELATION 1:1, 02:13 "THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST, 02:16 WHICH GOD GAVE TO HIM TO SHOW HIS SERVANTS THINGS 02:19 WHICH MUST SHORTLY COME TO PASS." 02:22 SO THE BOOK OF REVELATION AND THE THINGS 02:24 WE'RE GOING TO STUDY IN REVELATION, 02:26 BIBLE TELLS US WAY BACK IN THE TIME OF CHRIST 02:28 THEY WERE ABOUT TO COME TO PASS. 02:30 SO THE PROPHECY AT LEAST BEGINS DURING THE TIME OF CHRIST 02:34 AND CARRIES ON UNTIL, OF COURSE, 02:35 WE'RE IN HEAVEN IF YOU READ REVELATION 21 AND 22. 02:39 THERE ARE OVER 300 OLD TESTAMENT PROPHECIES 02:43 THAT PROVIDE A NUMBER 02:44 OF PRECISE IDENTIFYING CHARACTERISTICS 02:46 REGARDING THE MESSIAH. 02:48 A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD THINK THAT JESUS WAS JUST ONE 02:50 OF MANY RELIGIOUS LEADERS. 02:52 YOU CANNOT REALLY BELIEVE THAT AND BE A CHRISTIAN. 02:56 BIBLE SAYS, "THERE IS NO OTHER NAME GIVEN AMONG MEN 02:58 WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED." 03:00 JESUS IS NOT JUST ANOTHER RELIGIOUS TEACHER. 03:03 GOD BECAME A MAN. 03:05 IT'S CALLED THE INCARNATION IN CHRIST TO SAVE US 03:10 AND WE NEED TO KNOW WHO HE IS. 03:11 THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION IS ALL ABOUT JESUS 03:14 AND YOU NEED TO KNOW WHO HE IS. 03:16 THE WHOLE BIBLE TELLS US ABOUT THAT. 03:17 WE'RE GOING TO DELVE INTO SOME OF THESE. 03:19 FIRST PROPHECY IS IN THE BOOK OF GENESIS. 03:23 GENESIS 3:15. 03:25 THIS IS AFTER ADAM AND EVE SINNED 03:28 AND GOD THEN, SPEAKING TO ADAM AND EVE, 03:31 AND BECAUSE OF THE SERPENT WAS THE MEDIUM 03:34 THROUGH WHICH LUCIFER SPOKE, 03:36 GOD SAID "AND I WILL PUT ENMITY," 03:39 THAT'S WHERE YOU GET THE WORD ENEMY. 03:41 IT MEANS THERE IS ANIMOSITY, THERE IS FRICTION, 03:43 THERE IS A POLAR RESISTANCE, "BETWEEN YOU AND THE WOMAN," 03:48 BETWEEN THE SERPENT AND THE WOMAN. 03:50 THAT COMES UP IN REVELATION, SO I WANT YOU TO NOTE THAT, 03:53 "BETWEEN YOUR SEED," THE SEED OF THE SERPENT, 03:56 "AND HER SEED," THE SEED OR THE OFFSPRING OF THE WOMAN. 04:00 THE SEED OF THE WOMAN, 04:01 IT'S TALKING ABOUT IS THE MESSIAH. 04:03 GOES ON TO SAY, "AND HE," THE SEED OF THE WOMAN 04:06 "WILL BRUISE YOUR HEAD." 04:08 CHRIST WOULD BRUISE THE HEAD OF THE SERPENT, 04:10 AND YOU SHALL BRUISE HIS HEEL." 04:12 THE PROGRESS OR THE WALK OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH 04:14 HAS BEEN IMPEDED, 04:16 SLOWED BY THE WORK OF THE DEVIL. 04:19 THERE IS A BATTLE IN THIS WORLD BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, 04:21 BETWEEN THE WOMAN AND THE SERPENT 04:23 THAT CARRIES ALL THE WAY THROUGH. 04:25 YOU READ IN REVELATION 12, 04:27 WE DON'T HAVE TO GUESS WHO THE SERPENT IS. 04:30 "SO THAT GREAT DRAGON WAS CAST OUT, 04:32 THE SERPENT OF OLD CALLED THE DEVIL AND SATAN, 04:35 WHO DECEIVES THE WHOLE WORLD." 04:37 HOW MUCH OF THE WORLD DOES HE DECEIVE? 04:40 THE WHOLE WORLD. 04:42 SO WHERE DID JESUS COME FROM? 04:45 THAT'S A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. 04:47 IS HE JUST A MAN? 04:49 WAS HE BORN LIKE OTHER MEN? 04:50 CHRIST MADE SOME PRETTY BOLD CLAIMS. 04:53 FOR ONE THING, HE SAID IN JOHN 6:38, 04:56 "FOR I HAVE COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN..." 04:59 WELL, NOT EVERYBODY SAYS THAT. 05:01 I MEAN, IF YOU MEET SOMEBODY THAT SAYS, 05:02 "I'VE COME FROM HEAVEN" AND YOU KNOW THE BIBLE, 05:05 WE TALKED A LITTLE LAST NIGHT 05:06 ABOUT PEOPLE WHO CLAIM TO BE CHRIST. 05:10 AND THERE IS SOME PROMINENT CHARACTERS 05:13 THAT CLAIMED TO BE JESUS 05:14 BUT THERE'S ALSO SOME THAT ARE LOCKED UP HERE AND THERE. 05:18 AND I MET SOMEBODY ONCE THAT CLAIMED TO BE JESUS 05:21 THAT I'LL NEVER FORGET 05:23 BECAUSE I WAS BY MYSELF UP IN THE MOUNTAINS. 05:24 I LIVED IN A CAVE BACK THEN. 05:26 I WAS A HERMIT FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF 05:28 AND I WAS ALL BY MYSELF. 05:29 AND A HIKER CAME BY THE CAVE AND THAT WAS NOT THAT UNUSUAL, 05:32 I'D SEE PEOPLE FROM TIME TO TIME. 05:34 HE STAYED AND HE VISITED FOR A LITTLE BIT 05:36 THEN SAID HE WAS JESUS. 05:40 AND AT FIRST I THOUGHT, 05:41 "I'VE GOT SOME SPANISH FRIENDS NAMED JESUS, MAYBE THAT'S..." 05:44 HE DIDN'T LOOK SPANISH. 05:48 AND THEN HE SAID, "NO I AM CHRIST." 05:51 HE SAID, "MY NAME IS MICHAEL DAVID HARPER". 05:54 THEY SAID, "THAT'S MY EARTHLY NAME, 05:55 BUT I'VE COME FROM HEAVEN." 05:56 WELL, I'LL TELL YOU, IT'S A LITTLE SPOOKY 05:58 WHEN YOU'RE BY YOURSELF UP THE HILLS 05:59 AND YOU MEET SOMEBODY THAT SAYS, 06:01 "I'M JESUS, AND I HAVE COME." 06:03 AND I WASN'T QUITE SURE WHAT TO SAY 06:04 BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I JUST STARTED READING THE BIBLE. 06:08 I THOUGHT, "WELL, IF IT IS JESUS, 06:09 I'VE GOT A LOT OF QUESTIONS. 06:12 AND IF IT IS JESUS, I DON'T WANT TO SHOW A LACK OF FAITH 06:14 AND HURT HIS FEELINGS." 06:15 I MEAN, ALL KINDS OF CRAZY THINGS 06:17 ARE GOING THROUGH YOUR HEAD, YOU KNOW? 06:18 AND I DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE HIM MAD, 06:22 WHETHER HE WAS JESUS OR WASN'T JESUS. 06:24 I DIDN'T WANT. 06:26 AND SO I SAID, "WELL, THE BIBLE SAYS 06:29 THAT WHEN YOU COME 06:31 THAT EVERYBODY IS GOING TO SEE YOU, 06:32 IT WILL BE LIKE LIGHTNING". 06:34 HE SAYS, "THAT'S TRUE." 06:35 HE SAYS, YOU KNOW, "BUT I'M COMING SPECIALLY 06:36 TO PREPARE SOME OTHER PEOPLE EARLY." 06:38 AND HE HAD LIKE AN ANSWER FOR EVERYTHING, 06:40 HE KNEW THE BIBLE AND HE STAYED WITH ME 06:42 FOR TWO OR THREE DAYS 06:43 AND ATE ALL MY FOOD SO I KNEW HE WASN'T JESUS 06:45 AND HE DIDN'T CLEAN UP AND... 06:48 AND I SAW HIM A WEEK OR SO LATER 06:51 AND HE ACTUALLY HAD FOUND AN APOSTLE. 06:53 SOME GUY WAS FOLLOWING HIM AROUND SAYING, "THIS IS JESUS". 06:57 AND THEN I SAW HIM A FEW WEEKS LATER, 06:58 WE LIVED ON THE STREETS BACK THEN 07:00 WHEN I WASN'T UP IN THE CAVE 07:01 AND HE WAS MISSING A TOOTH 07:03 BECAUSE HE HAD GOT INTO A FIGHT. 07:04 I FELT SO MUCH BETTER 07:05 BECAUSE I KNOW JESUS HAS ALL HIS TEETH. 07:07 BUT YOU KNOW YOU MEET 07:09 ALL KINDS OF STRANGE PEOPLE OUT THERE. 07:10 WELL, SO, WHEN JESUS SAID, "I'VE COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN" 07:13 AND THEN HE TOLD PILATE IN JOHN 18:36, 07:16 "MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD." 07:17 "I AM FROM OUT OF THIS WORLD." 07:20 WELL, WHAT IS HE, AN EXTRATERRESTRIAL? 07:23 WHERE DID JESUS COME FROM? 07:24 HE'S MAKING SOME BOLD CLAIMS. 07:26 AND SO WE NEED TO EVALUATE THAT. 07:28 DID JESUS CLAIM DIVINITY? 07:31 DID HE CLAIM TO BE GOD? 07:33 IN A WORD, YES. 07:36 AND HERE'S SOME VERSES THAT ILLUSTRATE THAT. 07:37 JOHN 8:58, "JESUS SAID TO THEM, 07:40 'MOST ASSUREDLY I SAY TO YOU BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS, I AM.'" 07:47 NOW, YOU MIGHT BE THINKING, 07:48 "WELL, THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE WAS CLAIMING TO BE GOD." 07:50 THE JEWS WHO WERE LISTENING TO HIM THAT DAY BELIEVED 07:53 HE WAS CLAIMING TO BE GOD BECAUSE GOD SAID TO MOSES, 07:56 "I AM THAT I AM." 07:57 THAT WAS A TITLE FOR GOD, THE SELF-EXISTENT ONE. 08:00 THEY TOOK UP STONES TO STONE HIM FOR BLASPHEMY 08:03 CLAIMING TO BE GOD AND JESUS DID NOT RETRACT THAT. 08:06 AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW, "BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS," 08:09 HE SAYS, "I PREEXISTED." 08:11 AND THEN YOU CAN READ AGAIN IN JOHN 17:18, 08:14 "THEREFORE MY FATHER LOVES ME, BECAUSE I LAY DOWN MY LIFE 08:18 THAT I MIGHT TAKE IT AGAIN." 08:20 AND NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE LAY DOWN THEIR LIVES 08:21 AND TAKE IT AGAIN. 08:22 HE SAYS, "NO ONE TAKES IT FROM ME. 08:24 I AM LAYING IT DOWN AND I'M TAKING IT UP." 08:28 AND THEN HE GOES ON AND HE SAYS IN MARK 2:10, 08:31 "THE SON OF MAN HAS POWER ON EARTH TO FORGIVE SINS." 08:35 AND YOU CAN READ WHERE IT SAYS, 08:37 "GOD AND GOD ONLY CAN FORGIVE SINS." 08:39 AND SO, THERE'S A LOT OF WAYS 08:41 THAT JESUS EXPLAINED HE HAD DIVINE PREROGATIVES. 08:45 AND SO, YES, JESUS IS NOT JUST ANOTHER MAN. 08:47 HE SAID HE PREEXISTED BEFORE HE CAME TO THIS WORLD. 08:50 HAD POWER TO FORGIVE SIN. 08:53 HOW CAN WE EVALUATE HIS CLAIMS? 08:56 HOW DO WE TEST TO SEE IF THIS IS TRUE? 08:59 C.S. LEWIS, THE CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHER SAID, 09:02 "YOU REALLY ONLY HAVE THREE CHOICES WITH JESUS." 09:04 NO QUESTION THAT HE LIVED. 09:07 WHAT YEAR IS IT RIGHT NOW? 09:09 2017. 09:11 I KNOW I'M JUST TESTING. 2017 WHAT? 09:15 THE WHOLE DATING METHOD 09:16 THAT THE WORLD USES IS BASED ON THE BIRTH OF CHRIST. 09:19 I TOLD YOU THEY GOT THAT OFF A LITTLE BIT 09:21 BUT IT WAS OSTENSIBLY DATED FROM CHRIST. 09:25 SO YOU CAN'T DENY THAT HE LIVED. 09:27 HISTORY DOESN'T CHALLENGE HIS EXISTENCE THAT HE LIVED. 09:31 SO IT'S LIKE C.S. LEWIS SAID, 09:33 "HE WAS EITHER A LIAR, OR HE WAS A LUNATIC, 09:38 OR HE'S LORD. 09:40 THOSE ARE REALLY THE ONLY THREE OPTIONS THAT WE HAVE." 09:44 DON'T FORGET TO REQUEST TODAY'S LIFE CHANGING FREE RESOURCE. 09:48 NOT ONLY CAN YOU RECEIVE THIS FREE GIFT IN THE MAIL, 09:50 YOU CAN DOWNLOAD A DIGITAL COPY 09:51 STRAIGHT TO YOUR COMPUTER OR MOBILE DEVICE. 09:53 TO GET YOUR COPY OF TODAY'S FREE GIFT, 09:56 SIMPLY CALL US AND ASK FOR THE OFFER NUMBER SHOWN 09:59 ON YOUR SCREEN, 10:00 OR VISIT THE WEB ADDRESS AND DOWNLOAD A DIGITAL COPY. 10:04 AND BE SURE TO SELECT THE DIGITAL DOWNLOAD OPTION 10:06 ON THE REQUEST PAGE. 10:07 IT'S NOW EASIER THAN EVER FOR YOU 10:09 TO STUDY GOD'S WORD WITH AMAZING FACTS, 10:12 WHEREVER AND WHENEVER YOU WANT, 10:14 AND MOST IMPORTANT, TO SHARE IT WITH OTHERS. 10:18 SO HOW DO WE DETERMINE. 10:20 WHERE DO WE GO TO FIND OUT? 10:22 THE BIBLE TELLS US AND JESUS HIMSELF SAID IN JOHN 5:39, 10:26 "SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES, 10:28 IN THEM YOU THINK YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE," 10:30 HE SAID, "THESE ARE THEY THAT TESTIFY OF ME." 10:33 NOW WHEN JESUS SAID THAT, 10:35 HOW MUCH NEW TESTAMENT WAS WRITTEN? 10:37 NONE. NONE. 10:39 AND SO, LET ME SEE IF I CAN ILLUSTRATE SOMETHING 10:41 AND I AM GLAD TO SEE SOME OF YOU 10:42 BROUGHT YOUR BIBLES HERE. I'M GOING TO QUICKLY... 10:44 OH, GOOD, I'VE FOUND IT RIGHT AWAY. 10:46 THIS IS YOUR BIBLE, I'VE DIVIDED IT 10:48 JUST VISUALLY SO YOU GET A ROUGH IDEA. 10:50 YOU KNOW, THERE'S SOME CONTENTS AND CONCORDANCE 10:52 AND STUFF IN THE FRONT AND THE BACK, 10:54 BUT APPROXIMATELY THREE QUARTERS OF THE BIBLE, 10:57 OLD TESTAMENT, THIS IS WRITTEN BEFORE JESUS. 11:00 MATTER OF FACT, THE LAST BOOK MALACHI IN THE OLD TESTAMENT 11:03 WAS WRITTEN ABOUT 400 YEARS BEFORE JESUS WAS BORN. 11:06 SO THERE'S A NICE SPREAD BETWEEN THE TWO. 11:08 AND THEN YOU GET TO THE NEW TESTAMENT, 11:10 IT TALKS ABOUT THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST. 11:13 FIRST WORDS IN REVELATION ARE THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST. 11:15 FIRST WORDS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, 11:17 THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS CHRIST. 11:19 SO IT TELLS ABOUT THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH. 11:22 THE OLD TESTAMENT FORETELLS WHEN THE SAVIOR WOULD COME, 11:25 WHEN GOD WOULD BECOME A MAN. 11:27 AND A LOT OF THE OLD TESTAMENT IS TALKING ABOUT CHRIST. 11:30 THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PROPHECIES. 11:32 SO WE'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING NOW AT A LOT OF PROPHECIES HERE 11:36 THAT WERE WRITTEN HUNDREDS, IN SOME CASES, 11:38 MORE THAN A THOUSAND YEARS BEFORE CHRIST WAS BORN, 11:41 AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO SEE HERE 11:42 THAT EXACTLY WHAT WAS FORETOLD HAPPENED. 11:46 AND THIS IS ONE REASON 11:47 I THINK THIS IS NOT JUST WHITE PAGES AND BLACK INK. 11:50 I BELIEVE THE BIBLE 11:51 IS A SUPERNATURAL CORRESPONDENCE WITH HUMANITY 11:55 AND GOD HAS DONE SOMETHING MIRACULOUSLY 11:57 TO PROTECT THIS BOOK. 11:59 SO WE'RE GOING TO LOOK IN THE BIBLE. 12:00 FURTHERMORE, LUKE 24:27, JESUS, 12:06 WHEN HE WAS TALKING TO THE TWO DISCIPLES 12:07 ON THE ROAD TO EMMAUS, 12:09 HE SAID, "HE EXPOUNDED UNTO THEM BEGINNING AT MOSES 12:13 AND ALL THE PROPHETS HE EXPOUNDED TO THEM 12:15 IN ALL OF THE SCRIPTURES 12:17 THE THINGS CONCERNING HIMSELF." 12:19 SO JESUS GAVE A BIBLE STUDY TO THESE TWO DISCIPLES 12:22 AND HE SHOWED THEM THROUGH ALL OF THE SCRIPTURES, 12:25 PRIOR TO THE NEW TESTAMENT, THINGS CONCERNING HIMSELF. 12:28 AND YOU'RE GOING TO SEE 12:29 THAT JESUS IS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THERE. 12:31 I'VE BEEN TO CHURCHES BEFORE WHERE THEY SUPPLY A BIBLE 12:34 AND ALL THEY HAVE IS A NEW TESTAMENT. 12:35 THEY SAY, "WELL, WE'RE A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH, 12:37 WE DON'T, THAT'S THE OLD COVENANT." 12:39 YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND THE NEW TESTAMENT 12:41 WITHOUT THE OLD TESTAMENT. 12:43 IT'S THE MOON THAT THE WOMAN STANDS ON, 12:47 THOUGH SHE IS CLOTHED WITH THE SUN OF THE NEW TESTAMENT, 12:50 IT'S THE FOUNDATION. 12:51 THE OLD TESTAMENT IS SO IMPORTANT 12:53 TO UNDERSTAND THE NEW. 12:55 AND AGAIN, HEBREWS 10:7, "HE SAID, 'BEHOLD, I COME. 12:59 IN THE VOLUME OF THE BOOK IT IS WRITTEN OF ME 13:02 TO DO YOUR WILL, O GOD." 13:04 SO THE WHOLE BIBLE IS TELLING US ABOUT JESUS. 13:07 DOES PROPHECY FORETELL THE MESSIAH'S FAMILY TREE? 13:12 AND THE ANSWER IS, ABSOLUTELY YES. 13:14 FOR ONE THING, GOD TOLD ABRAHAM 13:18 HE WAS CALLING HIM FROM MESOPOTAMIA. 13:21 HE SAID, "THROUGH YOUR DESCENDANTS, 13:23 THE MESSIAH WOULD COME." 13:24 AND YOU FIND THAT IN GENESIS 12:3, 13:27 "IN YOU SHALL ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED." 13:31 THROUGH YOUR DESCENDANTS 13:32 THAT THE MESSIAH WOULD COME THROUGH THE HEBREW LINE. 13:35 NOW YOU REALIZE, A JEW AND A HEBREW IS DIFFERENT. 13:38 ABRAHAM HAD MORE CHILDREN THAN JUST ISAAC 13:40 AND ISAAC HAD MORE CHILDREN THAN JUST JACOB. 13:43 AND JACOB HAD MORE CHILDREN THAN JUST JUDAH. 13:45 THE WORD "JEW" KIND OF COMES FROM THE DESCENDANTS OF JUDAH, 13:48 PRINCIPALLY. 13:49 BUT WE OFTEN USE IT TO TALK ABOUT HEBREWS, IN GENERAL. 13:53 BUT THE MESSIAH WOULD COME THROUGH 13:55 THE DESCENDANTS OF NOT ONLY ABRAHAM, BUT ISAAC. 13:58 YOU READ IN GENESIS 26:4, IT SAYS 14:00 "I WILL GIVE YOUR DESCENDANTS THESE LANDS, 14:03 AND IN YOUR SEED ALL THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD 14:05 WOULD BE BLESSED." 14:07 BECAUSE JESUS DID NOT JUST COME FOR JEWS, DID HE? 14:09 HE CAME TO SAVE EVERYBODY. 14:11 "WHOSOEVER WILL" THE PROMISE IS. 14:13 HE TOLD THE DISCIPLES, GO TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH. 14:16 AND THEN, NOT ONLY DID IT COME FROM ABRAHAM THROUGH ISAAC, 14:19 SEE ABRAHAM ALSO HAD ISHMAEL 14:22 AND SEVERAL OTHER CHILDREN THROUGH KETURAH. 14:24 ISAAC ALSO HAD ESAU. 14:27 BUT HE SAID THE BLESSING WOULD COME THROUGH JACOB 14:30 AND JACOB PROPHESIED. 14:32 YOU SEE THE PROPHECY IN NUMBERS 24:17. 14:34 "A STAR WILL COME OUT OF JACOB, 14:36 A SCEPTER" A SCEPTER'S WHAT A KING HOLDS, 14:39 "WILL RISE OUT OF ISRAEL." 14:40 THERE WOULD BE THIS KING, 14:42 THE KING OF KINGS THAT WOULD COME. 14:43 BY THE WAY, THAT'S THE PROPHECY, PROBABLY, 14:45 THAT THE WISE MEN IN THE EAST WERE READING WHEN THEY CAME 14:49 AND FOLLOWED THE STAR. 14:50 THE STAR THAT SAID, THERE WAS A NEW KING THAT WOULD COME. 14:53 AND THEN WHEN HE WAS DYING THERE IN GENESIS 49, JACOB, 14:57 LATER CALLED ISRAEL, HE PROPHESIED THAT OF HIS SONS, 15:01 AND HE HAD 12 SONS AND ONE DAUGHTER, 15:03 THE MESSIAH WOULD THEN BE COMING 15:04 SPECIFICALLY THROUGH WHICH ONE? 15:07 JUDAH, RIGHT? 15:10 YOU ALL WITH ME? YOU ALL KNEW THAT, DIDN'T YOU? 15:12 THE MESSIAH WOULD COME THROUGH OF THE 12 SONS OF JACOB, 15:15 HE WOULD COME THROUGH JUDAH. 15:17 AND HE SAYS THERE IN GENESIS 49, 15:19 "THE SCEPTER WILL NOT DEPART FROM JUDAH, 15:21 NOR A LAWGIVER FROM BETWEEN HIS FEET, UNTIL SHILOH COME," 15:25 THAT MEANS THE KING OF PEACE. 15:27 AND UNTO HIM SHALL THE GATHERING OF THE PEOPLE BE. 15:30 SO IT WOULD COME THROUGH THE TRIBE OF JUDAH. 15:32 "THERE WILL COME FORTH A ROD FROM THE STEM OF JESSE..." 15:35 JESSE WAS THE FATHER OF DAVID. 15:37 "AND A BRANCH WILL GROW FROM HIS ROOTS." 15:39 IT SAID THE MESSIAH WOULD COME FROM THE HOUSEHOLD OF DAVID. 15:42 "AND THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD WILL REST UPON HIM." 15:45 WELL, WHY DOES IT SAY, "THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD?" 15:47 THE VERY WORD "MESSIAH" 15:49 IN THE OLD TESTAMENT MEANS ANOINTED, 15:53 THE WORD CHRIST, CHRISTOS, IT'S GREEK FOR THE ANOINTED. 15:58 YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY CHRISTEN A SHIP, 16:00 THEY SPLASH THE BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE OR WINE ON IT 16:03 AND IT'S CALLED A CHRISTENING. 16:04 AN ANOINTING MEANS TO SHOWER SOMETHING. 16:07 JESUS WAS TO BE SHOWERED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD 16:11 AND THEY CALLED HIM THE ANOINTED 16:13 THAT CAME THROUGH THE DESCENDANTS OF DAVID. 16:17 NOW YOU GO TO THE NEW TESTAMENT 16:19 AND YOU SEE WAS IT FULFILLED? 16:21 AND YOU CAN READ IN LUKE 1:26, 16:24 "NOW IN THE SIXTH MONTH THE ANGEL GABRIEL 16:27 WAS SENT BY GOD TO A CITY IN GALILEE NAMED NAZARETH..." 16:31 WHERE'D THE ANGEL GO? 16:33 I WANT YOU TO CATCH THAT 16:34 BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE A PROBLEM HERE IN THE MOMENT. 16:37 "TO A VIRGIN THAT WAS BETROTHED TO A MAN 16:39 WHOSE NAME WAS JOSEPH OF THE HOUSE OF" WHERE? 16:42 "HOUSE OF DAVID. 16:44 THE VIRGIN'S NAME WAS MARY." 16:45 AND THIS ALL SOUNDS LIKE A CHRISTMAS SERMON. 16:46 YOU ALL KNOW THIS STORY, RIGHT? 16:49 BUT BOTH MARY AND JOSEPH WERE DESCENDANTS FROM DAVID. 16:52 YOU FIND THE GENEALOGY OF MARY 16:54 GOING THROUGH HER FATHER BACK TO JESUS IN LUKE, 16:58 AND THE GENEALOGY FOLLOWS JOSEPH IN MATTHEW. 17:01 SO EITHER WAY THEY WERE BOTH DESCENDANTS OF DAVID 17:06 AND, FURTHERMORE, IT SAYS THAT JESUS 17:08 WOULD COME THROUGH NOT JUST THE HOUSE OF DAVID, 17:10 BUT THE MOTHER WOULD BE A VIRGIN. 17:11 NOW THAT CERTAINLY IS UNIQUE, RIGHT? 17:14 YOU READ THAT PROPHECY IN ISAIAH 7:14, 17:18 "BEHOLD A VIRGIN WILL CONCEIVE AND BEAR A SON, 17:22 AND THEY'LL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," 17:24 WHICH MEANS GOD WITH US. 17:27 JUMP TO THE NEW TESTAMENT. 17:28 BY THE WAY, THAT'S WRITTEN 700 YEARS 17:30 BEFORE JESUS WAS BORN, 17:31 FORETOLD THAT THE MESSIAH WOULD BE BORN OF A VIRGIN. 17:34 NOW YOU GO TO THE NEW TESTAMENT AND YOU READ IN MATTHEW 1:18. 17:38 IT SAYS THAT, "NOW THE BIRTH OF JESUS WAS AS FOLLOWS: 17:42 AFTER HIS MOTHER MARY WAS BETROTHED OR ENGAGED TO JOSEPH, 17:46 BEFORE THEY CAME TOGETHER, 17:48 SHE WAS FOUND TO BE WITH CHILD." 17:51 AND, OF COURSE, WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THE VIRGIN BIRTH OF MARY, 17:57 VIRGIN BIRTH OF JESUS, BUT MARY WAS THE VIRGIN. 17:59 YEAH. 18:02 WHAT ABOUT WHERE HE WOULD BE BORN? 18:04 DOES THE BIBLE TALK SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE ANY DOUBTS 18:06 ABOUT WHO THE SAVIOR OF MAN WOULD BE? 18:08 NO DOUBTS ABOUT WHEN GOD BECAME A MAN. 18:10 WHO IS IT? 18:11 IT WASN'T JUST ONE OF MANY WISE MEN OR PROPHETS THROUGH TIME. 18:15 IT WAS JESUS. 18:16 THE PLACE OF HIS BIRTH IS FORETOLD 18:18 IN THE BOOK OF MICAH 18:19 ABOUT 600 YEARS BEFORE CHRIST. 18:21 HE SPECIFICALLY SAID, "BUT YOU, BETHLEHEM EPHRATHAH, 18:25 THOUGH YOU ARE LITTLE AMONG THE THOUSANDS OF JUDAH, 18:28 UNTO YOU, YET OUT OF YOU SHALL COME FORTH TO ME 18:31 THE ONE WHO IS TO BE THE RULER IN ISRAEL, 18:34 WHOSE GOINGS FORTH ARE FROM OLD, 18:36 EVEN FROM EVERLASTING." 18:38 SO IT'S ANOTHER PROPHECY HERE. 18:40 WHAT DOES IT TELL US ABOUT JESUS? 18:41 HE'S FROM EVERLASTING. 18:43 SEE, CHRIST DIDN'T JUST APPEAR 18:45 WHEN HE WAS BORN FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING. 18:48 YOU KNOW, IN REVELATION, HE'S REFERRED TO AS THE ETERNAL ONE. 18:53 HE'S THE "I AM" THERE. 18:55 HE'S THE ONE WHO IS THE FIRST AND THE LAST, 18:58 THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA. 19:00 SO CHRIST IS FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING. 19:02 HE WAS ETERNAL. 19:04 AND IT SAYS THAT HE'D BE BORN IN BETHLEHEM. 19:07 DID THAT HAPPEN? 19:08 NOW, WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM. 19:10 WHEN THE ANGEL CAME TO MARY, YOU HEARD ME SAY A MINUTE AGO? 19:12 WHERE WAS SHE? 19:14 GALILEE. AND WHAT CITY? NAZARETH. 19:17 I'VE GOT A MAP UP HERE ON THE SCREEN. 19:19 NOW YOU'RE GOING TO SEE NAZARETH 19:20 AS THE CROW FLIES ABOUT 70 MILES AWAY. 19:23 SHE'S GREAT WITH CHILD. 19:25 SHE'S A LONG WAY FROM HOME. 19:26 HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET THE MESSIAH BORN, 19:28 AS HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE BORN, 19:30 IN THE CITY OF DAVID, BETHLEHEM? 19:32 WELL, THIS IS ONE OF THE ONLY TIMES IN HISTORY 19:34 WE NEED TO THANK A POLITICIAN FOR DOING A TAX INCREASE. 19:40 CAESAR AUGUSTUS. 19:41 LUKE 2:1, ISSUED A DECREE, 19:45 "AND IT CAME TO PASS IN THOSE DAYS 19:47 THAT THERE WENT OUT A DECREE FROM CAESAR AUGUSTUS 19:50 THAT ALL THE WORLD SHOULD BE TAXED 19:52 AND THEY HAD TO GO REGISTER FOR THE TAX IN THEIR OWN CITY. 19:57 AND JOSEPH ALSO WENT UP FROM GALILEE 20:00 OUT OF THE CITY OF NAZARETH INTO JUDEA 20:03 THERE TO BE REGISTERED, 20:05 TO BE TAXED AND REGISTERED WITH HIS WIFE, 20:07 MARY" OR HIS ESPOUSED WIFE "BEING GREAT WITH CHILD." 20:11 AND, OF COURSE, WHILE THEY ARE THERE WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. 20:15 "AND SO IT WAS, WHILE THEY WERE THERE, 20:17 THE DAYS WERE ACCOMPLISHED THAT SHE SHOULD BE DELIVERED. 20:20 AND SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER FIRSTBORN SON." 20:23 AND THIS IS, OF COURSE, FULFILLING THAT THE MESSIAH 20:25 WOULD BE BORN IN BETHLEHEM. 20:26 WHEN THE SHEPHERDS SAW THE ANGELS WHERE WERE THEY? 20:29 "THERE WERE DWELLING IN THOSE DAYS 20:30 OUTSIDE BETHLEHEM SHEPHERDS WATCHING THEIR FLOCKS." 20:33 NOW, YOU KNOW IT'S ALWAYS BEEN AMAZING TO ME, 20:36 YOU KNOW WHAT BETHLEHEM MEANS? 20:39 BETH MEANS HOUSE. 20:41 BETHLEHEM, THAT MEANS HOUSE OF BREAD. 20:44 AND JESUS IS THE BREAD OF LIFE. 20:47 AND AFTER HE WAS BORN, HE WAS PLACED IN A MANGER. 20:49 A MANGER IS A TROUGH FOR PUTTING GRAIN FOR THE ANIMALS. 20:53 SO HERE YOU'VE GOT THE BREAD OF LIFE 20:55 BORN IN THE HOUSE OF BREAD PLACED IN A TROUGH FOR BREAD. 20:58 JESUS IS THE BREAD OF LIFE. 21:01 "AND SO SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER FIRSTBORN SON, 21:03 WRAPPED HIM IN SWADDLING CLOTHES, 21:05 AND LAID HIM IN A MANGER, 21:07 BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR HIM IN THE INN." 21:11 AND AGAIN THE ANGELS SAID "FOR UNTO YOU IS BORN" 21:14 THEY TOLD THE SHEPHERDS, "IN THE CITY OF DAVID." 21:16 JESUS WOULD BE A DESCENDANT OF DAVID BORN IN THE TOWN OF DAVID 21:20 AND IT WAS ALL FORETOLD BY THE PROPHETS, 21:22 THE SAVIOR WHO IS CHRIST THE ANOINTED, THE LORD. 21:27 AND WHEN CHRIST WAS A BABY, EIGHT DAYS OLD, 21:29 THEY BRING HIM TO THE TEMPLE TO BE NAMED AND CIRCUMCISED, 21:34 WHICH WAS TECHNICALLY THE FIRST TIME HE SHED BLOOD. 21:36 WHEN THEY CALLED HIS NAME JESUS, 21:39 HE WILL SAVE HIS PEOPLE FROM THEIR SINS. 21:41 THE PRIEST THERE IN THE TEMPLE, SIMON, 21:42 TOOK HIM UP IN HIS ARMS AND BLESSED HIM. 21:44 AND THEY SAID TO HIS MOTHER, 21:46 "BEHOLD, THIS CHILD IS DESTINED FOR THE FALL 21:48 AND THE RISING OF MANY IN ISRAEL, 21:50 AND FOR A SIGN THAT WILL BE SPOKEN AGAINST. 21:53 YES, A SWORD WILL EVEN PIERCE THROUGH YOUR OWN SOUL," 21:56 FORETELLING, OF COURSE, THE SUFFERINGS 21:58 THAT JESUS WOULD BE GOING THROUGH, 22:00 "THAT THE THOUGHTS OF MANY HEARTS MIGHT BE REVEALED." 22:03 SO EVEN AT THE VERY BEGINNING MARY WAS GIVEN A PROPHECY 22:06 TO LET HER KNOW THAT JESUS WAS COMING, NOT JUST AS A LION, 22:12 BUT HE WOULD FIRST HAVE TO COME AS A LAMB 22:14 AND SUFFER FOR THE SINS OF THE WORLD. 22:17 WELL, THEN, WHEN CHRIST WAS STILL A CHILD, 22:21 THEY'RE LIVING IN BETHLEHEM, 22:22 HEROD THE KING WANTED TO EXTERMINATE JESUS AS A BABY. 22:25 YOU KNOW THERE'S THREE TIMES IN THE BIBLE 22:28 WHEN THE DEVIL MADE AN EFFORT 22:30 TO TRY TO KEEP THE SAVIOR FROM COMING. 22:32 YOU CAN READ ABOUT THE DEVIL THOUGHT MAYBE 22:34 THAT A SAVIOR WAS COMING WHEN THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL 22:37 WERE IN EGYPT. 22:38 SO HE WANTED ALL THE BABY BOYS TO BE EXTERMINATED. 22:43 AND YET MOSES WAS MIRACULOUSLY SPARED, THE SAVIOR WAS SPARED. 22:47 AND THEN DURING THE TIME 22:49 OF QUEEN JEZEBEL'S DAUGHTER ATHALIAH, 22:52 SHE KILLED ALL OF THE SEED OF DAVID. 22:54 AGAIN, THE DEVIL TRYING TO KEEP 22:56 THE MESSIAH FROM COMING. 22:58 BUT, MIRACULOUSLY, JOASH WAS SPARED. 23:02 AND THEN, OF COURSE, 23:04 DURING THE TIME WHEN CHRIST WAS A BABY, 23:05 HEROD SENT HIS SOLDIERS TO BETHLEHEM 23:06 TO KILL ALL THE BABY BOYS, ONCE AGAIN, 23:08 TO TRY TO KEEP THE SAVIOR FROM COMING. 23:11 AND JOSEPH WAS WARNED IN A DREAM TO GO DOWN TO EGYPT 23:14 AND YOU READ IN THE NEW TESTAMENT 23:16 THAT AFTER HE RECEIVED THAT WARNING. 23:18 HE SAID, "HE AROSE AND HE TOOK THE YOUNG CHILD 23:20 AND HIS MOTHER BY NIGHT AND HE DEPARTED FOR EGYPT..." 23:23 NOTICE WHAT MATTHEW SAYS, "THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED 23:26 WHICH WAS SPOKEN BY THE LORD THROUGH THE PROPHET SAYING, 23:29 'OUT OF EGYPT I HAVE CALLED MY SON.'" 23:31 AND, HERE, HE'S QUOTING HOSEA. 23:34 AND SO, EVEN THE NEW TESTAMENT WRITERS, LIKE MATTHEW, 23:38 COULD OFTEN SEE HOW JESUS 23:39 WAS A FULFILLMENT OF ALL THESE PROPHECIES. 23:42 THEY ALL COMBINED AND CONCENTRATED 23:44 AND FOCUSED IN HIS LIFE. 23:46 YOU KNOW, I GET EXCITED WHEN I TALK ABOUT THIS 23:48 BECAUSE THERE'S JUST NO QUESTION 23:49 THAT JESUS IS WHO HE SAYS HE WAS. 23:53 ALL RIGHT, AND THEN YOU CAN SAY 23:54 AND HE CAME WHEN HE WAS A CHILD. 23:56 HE MOVED BACK THEN, AFTER EGYPT TO NAZARETH 23:59 AND HE WAS SUBJECT TO HIS PARENTS 24:01 "THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED 24:02 THAT WAS SPOKEN OF BY THE PROPHETS," 24:04 ANOTHER PROPHECY, "HE WILL BE CALLED A NAZARENE." 24:08 NOW THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT WHEN SAMSON'S PARENTS WERE TOLD 24:12 THAT THIS PROMISED CHILD WOULD BE A NAZARENE. 24:15 SEVERAL OF THE TYPES IN THE BIBLE, 24:17 LIKE SAMUEL AND SAMSON, HAD THE VOW OF A NAZARITE. 24:22 TYPICALLY, JESUS IS PAINTED WITH LONG HAIR. 24:25 AND YET, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS 24:27 "IT'S A SHAME FOR A MAN TO HAVE LONG HAIR." 24:28 BUT THE NAZARITES WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO CUT THEIR HAIR. 24:31 AND SO SOME HAVE WONDERED, 24:32 "DID JESUS' PARENTS HAVE THE VOW OF A NAZARITE ON HIM 24:37 UP UNTIL HE WAS BAPTIZED?" 24:38 BECAUSE A PERSON COULD HAVE A NAZARITE VOW 24:40 FOR A VARYING LENGTH OF TIME. 24:42 IT WASN'T NECESSARILY A LIFELONG VOW. 24:45 NAZARITES COULD NOT EAT 24:46 OR DRINK ANYTHING FROM THE VINE. 24:49 JESUS OBVIOUSLY DRANK GRAPE JUICE. 24:51 AND SO, HE MAY HAVE JUST BEEN A NAZARITE 24:53 UP UNTIL HIS BAPTISM OR FOLLOWED THAT VOW. 24:56 WE'RE NOT SURE 24:57 BUT HE'S TYPICALLY PAINTED WITH LONG HAIR 24:59 AND THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS FOR THAT. 25:01 BUT THAT WAS FORETOLD. 25:03 "AND THEN HE WENT DOWN WITH HIS PARENTS 25:05 AND HE CAME TO NAZARETH, 25:06 AND HE WAS SUBJECT TO THEM." 25:08 YOU KNOW, THERE'S ALL THESE THEORIES THAT SAY, 25:10 YOU KNOW, THE REASON JESUS WAS SO BRILLIANT 25:13 IS BECAUSE, FROM THE TIME HE WAS BORN, 25:16 HIS PARENTS THEN TOOK HIM 25:17 AND HE STUDIED UNDER THESE WISE GURUS IN INDIA, 25:21 OR HE WENT TO EGYPT AND HE STUDIED THERE. 25:23 AND THEY'VE GOT ALL THESE THEORIES 25:25 ABOUT WHERE JESUS GOT HIS GREAT KNOWLEDGE 25:27 BECAUSE IT SAYS THAT HE WAS UNEDUCATED IN JERUSALEM. 25:30 IT TELLS US THAT HE LEARNED THE SCRIPTURES 25:32 RIGHT THERE FROM HIS PARENTS IN HOME. 25:35 HE DIDN'T GO OFF 25:36 AND WASN'T SECRETLY TAUGHT BY ANY, 25:38 YOU KNOW, KUNG FU EXPERTS OFF THERE SOMEWHERE. 25:41 AND THEN COME BACK 25:43 AND HAVE THIS GREAT ENLIGHTENMENT. 25:45 HE WENT TO HIS PARENTS. 25:46 HE LIVED A NORMAL LIFE FOR THE FIRST 30 YEARS 25:49 UNTIL HIS BAPTISM. 25:51 BUT THE MAIN REASON WE DO THESE SEMINARS 25:53 IS BECAUSE WE WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW 25:55 THAT THE BIBLE IS ALL ABOUT JESUS. 25:58 WHEN ABRAHAM WENT UP THE MOUNTAIN WITH ISAAC 26:01 AND GOD SAID, "ARE YOU WILLING TO GIVE ME YOUR SON?" 26:06 HE PUT THE WOOD ON ISAAC'S BACK. 26:08 THE CROSS WAS PLACED ON JESUS' BACK. 26:11 THE FATHER AND THE SON WENT TO THE MOUNTAIN TOP TOGETHER. 26:15 ISAAC WAS A WILLING SACRIFICE. 26:17 JESUS WAS A WILLING SACRIFICE. 26:20 ABRAHAM WAS WILLING TO GIVE HIS SON 26:23 AND THAT'S A TYPE OF GOD WHO DID GIVE HIS SON. 26:25 BUT WHEN YOU READ THE BIBLE, 26:28 YOU'RE READING IN THE STORY OF JOSEPH, 26:29 AND IN THE STORY OF DAVID, 26:31 AND THE STORY OF SAMUEL AND GIDEON. 26:34 IT'S ALL TELLING US ABOUT JESUS. 26:36 YOU'RE SEEING SHADOWS IN A TAPESTRY OF CHRIST 26:38 ALL THROUGH THIS BOOK 26:40 BECAUSE GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THEM AND KNOW HIM 26:43 AND HAVE A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS SON. 26:50 DON'T FORGET TO REQUEST TODAY'S LIFE CHANGING FREE RESOURCE. 26:54 NOT ONLY CAN YOU RECEIVE THIS FREE
