00:11 >> CONTRARY TO THE POPULAR BELIEF THAT LIGHTNING NEVER STRIKES THE 00:14 SAME SPOT TWICE, IT'S ACTUALLY BEEN KNOWN TO STRIKE OBJECTS, 00:17 EVEN PEOPLE, MULTIPLE TIMES DURING INTENSE ELECTRICAL 00:21 STORMS. DURING ONE STORM, FOR INSTANCE, 00:24 THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING IN NEW YORK WAS STRUCK 15 00:27 TIMES WITHIN 15 MINUTES. SOMETIMES A SINGLE BOLT OF 00:31 LIGHTNING WILL REALLY CONSIST OF AS MANY AS 42 DISCHARGES 00:35 STRIKING THE SAME SPOT IN SUCH QUICK SUCCESSION THAT IT APPEARS 00:39 LIKE A SINGLE FLASH, BUT IT ALL HAPPENS IN LESS THAN 00:42 ONE-QUARTER OF A SECOND. LIGHTNING, FROM ONE CLOUD TO 00:45 ANOTHER, IS ALSO VERY COMMON AND IT'S BEEN RECORDED TO JUMP AS 00:49 FAR AS 20 MILES BETWEEN CLOUDS. BUT WHETHER LIGHTNING IS MOVING 00:53 FROM CLOUD TO CLOUD OR CLOUD TO GROUND OR GROUND TO CLOUD, IT'S 00:56 HARD TO MISS THE BRILLIANT BLINDING FLASH THAT 00:59 ILLUMINATES THE SKY. IN MATTHEW 24 JESUS SAID, "FOR 01:04 AS LIGHTNING COMES FROM THE EAST AND FLASHES TO THE WEST, SO ALSO 01:08 WILL THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN BE." 01:11 IN SPITE OF HIS WORDS, SOME STILL BELIEVE THAT HIS RETURN IS 01:14 GOING TO BE A SECRET. WELL, WHAT IS THE TRUTH? 01:18 JOIN ME NOW, FRIENDS, AS WE TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT WHAT THE BIBLE 01:21 REALLY SAYS ABOUT THE RETURN OF CHRIST. 01:28 >> PEOPLE KNOW THAT SOMETHING UNUSUAL IS HAPPENING. 01:34 IN 2010 THE PEW RESEARCH GROUP DID A SURVEY AND IN THAT SURVEY 01:40 THEY EXPLAINED THAT BY THE YEAR 2050 - 50 ABOUT 60 PERCENT OF 01:48 THE PEOPLE BELIEVED THAT JESUS WOULD COME. 01:51 I THINK 40 OF THOSE 60 PERCENT WERE ABSOLUTELY SURE. 01:54 20 PERCENT SAID 'PROBABLY' AND THAT'S IN NORTH AMERICA, OF 01:58 COURSE. AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE GOING TO 02:00 BE TALKING TONIGHT ABOUT THE PINNACLE OF PROPHECY AND 02:04 SIGNS OF JESUS' COMING. YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY INTERESTING, 02:07 WE'RE GOING TO BE FINDING THAT THE BOOK OF DANIEL IS A 02:10 PARTNER BOOK FOR REVELATION. SO WE'LL BE GOING 02:12 BACK AND FORTH. REVELATION DOES A LOT OF 02:15 REFERRING TO THE BOOK OF DANIEL. YOU LOOK IN DANIEL CHAPTER 12 02:18 AND HE SAYS, IN VERSE 4, "BUT YOU DANIEL SHUT UP THE WORDS AND 02:23 SEAL THE BOOK UNTIL THE TIME OF THE END." 02:26 SO NO QUESTION ABOUT WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT. 02:28 AND HE GOES ON TO SAY, "MANY WILL RUN TO AND FRO." 02:32 FIRST OF ALL, I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO RUN TO AND FRO THROUGH 02:34 THE WORD OF GOD AND DISCOVER TRUTH. 02:38 BUT YOU CAN'T MISS THE POINT THAT PEOPLE ARE RUNNING TO AND 02:40 FRO FASTER - DO YOU REALIZE, FOR ABOUT SIX THOUSAND YEARS, PEOPLE 02:43 - THE FASTEST THING YOU GOT IS A HORSE? 02:46 JUST CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE THE CHANGE THAT'S BEEN SEEN. 02:49 NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, BACK IN 2006 - I KNOW IT'S AN OLD 02:52 ARTICLE BUT IT STILL BEARS THE POINT. 02:53 THAT'S THE MAGAZINE COVER, IF YOU WANT TO REFERENCE IT. 02:55 THERE'S A QUOTE IN THERE. PEOPLE ARE TRAVELING FAR FROM 02:59 HOME MORE THAN EVER BEFORE IN HUMAN HISTORY AND 03:03 KNOWLEDGE WILL INCREASE. THIS IS A PICTURE HERE ON THE 03:07 SCREEN OF THE GREAT HADRON ACCELERATOR. 03:10 IT IS - IT'S THE LARGEST EXPERIMENT IN THE WORLD. 03:13 IT'S THE BIGGEST MACHINE IN THE WORLD. 03:15 IT'S UNDER THE GROUND ABOUT 500 FEET - A 17-MILE TUNNEL IN 03:22 GENEVA UNDERNEATH THE GROUND WHERE THE - ALL THESE EUROPEAN 03:26 GOVERNMENTS GOT TOGETHER AND THEY POURED LIKE 13 BILLION 03:29 DOLLARS INTO BUILDING THIS TESTING EQUIPMENT TO UNDERSTAND 03:34 PHYSICS. AND AS THEY HYPER ACCELERATE 03:38 THESE PARTICLES THEY SMASH THEM AN THEN MEASURE WHAT THEY FIND 03:41 TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT WHAT IS THE BASE CORE OF 03:43 WHAT LIFE IS MADE OF? WHAT IS THE STUFF OF LIFE? 03:47 NOW ACTUALLY THE NICKNAME IS THE MACHINE HAS BEEN BUILT TO 03:50 DISCOVER - THEY CALL IT THE GOD PARTICLE. 03:53 HAVE YOU HEARD THAT BEFORE? THEY SAID IT'S GOING TO TRY 03:56 - 'WE'RE TRYING TO FIND THE ANSWERS OF WHERE EVERYTHING CAME 03:57 FROM.' - THAT'S A BIG INVESTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY, NOT ONLY FROM 04:02 UNDER THE GROUND THERE IN GENEVA BUT UP IN THE SKY WITH THE 04:05 INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION - KNOWLEDGE IS INCREASED 04:08 JUST IN IN ONE LIFETIME. I SHOULD ACTUALLY SAY IN ABOUT A 04:12 CENTURY - YOU LOOK AT JUST SOME OF THE CHANGES - INCREDIBLE 04:15 INVENTIONS - AUTOMOBILES, AIRPLANES, RADIO, TELEVISION, 04:19 SMARTPHONE, COMPUTERS. A LOT OF YOUNG PEOPLE TODAY, 04:24 THEY CAN'T IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT A SMARTPHONE. 04:28 AND YOU KNOW IT'S - I GET - KAREN AND I GOT A RENTAL CAR AND 04:33 IT WAS A FAIRLY NEW ONE - WE GOT LUCKY - GOT A LOW MILEAGE RENTAL 04:35 CAR AND I'VE NEARLY WRECKED IT THREE TIMES TRYING TO FIGURE OUT 04:38 HOW TO RUN THE THING. (LAUGHTER) I SAT IN THE CAR WHEN 04:40 WE GOT THERE AND I SAT THERE AND SAID, 'OH, THIS IS GREAT, LOW 04:43 MILEAGE', YOU KNOW, AND I FIGURED OUT, FINALLY, YOU DON'T 04:46 HAVE TO USE A KEY, YOU JUST PRESS THE BUTTON BECAUSE IT 04:47 KNOWS THE KEY'S IN MY POCKET - I KEEP TRYING TO FIGURE OUT 04:49 WHERE DO I PUT THE KEY? I'M ONE OF THESE OLD PEOPLE, 04:51 I WANT TO PUT THE KEY IN SOMEWHERE. 04:53 AND I KEEP TAKING THE KEY OUT WHEN I WALK UP TO THE CAR, BUT 04:55 IT DOESN'T NEED THE KEY, IT JUST OPENS BY ITSELF AND I SAID, 'OH, 04:58 WHAT A WASTE OF ENERGY.' I HAD TO FIND IT. 05:00 AND I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO SHIFT THE THING. 05:02 I'M LOOKING AT ALL THIS AND FINALLY KAREN REACHES OVER - SHE 05:04 TURNS A KNOB. IS THAT LIKE A VOLUME - YOU 05:07 SHIFT GEARS WITH A VOLUME BUTTON. 05:09 I'M A MAN, I WANT TO GRAB SOMETHING AND HEAR IT CLUNK, YOU 05:13 KNOW? WHEN - IT JUST - YOU TURN A LITTLE KNOB. 05:16 SO IT BOTHERS ME. JUST THINGS HAVE CHANGED. 05:21 CAN YOU IMAGINE TRYING TO EXPLAIN A SMARTPHONE TO THE 05:24 APOSTLE PAUL? (RAUCOUS LAUGHTER) HE WOULD 05:27 THINK YOU'RE DEMON POSSESSED. (LAUGHTER) PAUL WOULD SAY, 05:30 'LOOK, LET ME FIND THAT IN MY SCROLLS.' SAY, 'NO PROBLEM, 05:32 PAUL, I'LL GOOGLE IT.' 'WHAT?' CAN'T YOU JUST SEE IT? 05:36 THINGS HAVE CHANGED. AND ANOTHER ONE FOR ME THAT I 05:40 THINK IS A TREMENDOUS EVIDENCE OF THE NEARNESS OF CHRIST COMING 05:44 IS GLOBAL EVANGELIZATION. MATTHEW 24, VERSE 14 - THIS, TO 05:51 ME, I THINK, IS ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL PROPHECIES THAT REALLY 05:53 MAKES ME BELIEVE WE ARE LIVING IN THE LAST DAYS. 05:55 JESUS SAID, EXTREMELY CLEARLY, "THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM WILL 06:01 BE PREACHED IN ALL THE WORLD FOR A WITNESS UNTO ALL NATIONS." 06:06 AND THEN HE SAID, "THEN THE END WILL COME." 06:09 HE DIDN'T SAY IT MIGHT COME, OR IT COULD COME OR IT MAY COME. 06:12 HE SAID, VERY EMPHATICALLY, THE END WILL COME. 06:16 HE DID NOT SAY THE GOSPEL'LL BE PREACHED THERE WILL BE A GREAT 06:19 GLOBAL REVIVAL AND EVERYBODY WILL BELIEVE; HE SAID 'FOR A 06:23 WITNESS.' GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY. 06:25 AND THEN WHAT THEY DO WITH THAT OPPORTUNITY IS UP TO THEM. 06:27 BUT THE END WILL COME. WELL IS THE GOSPEL 06:31 GOING IN ALL THE WORLD? JUST THIS LAST TWO DAYS WE'VE 06:34 HAD AN INVITATION TO RETURN TO CHINA. 06:36 AMAZING FACTS WAS VERY BLESSED. WE WERE ONE OF - IF NOT THE 06:41 FIRST - CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION IN OVER 50 YEARS INVITED TO 06:45 PREACH PUBLICLY A WHOLE SERIES OF MEETINGS THAT WAS BROADCAST 06:48 ON TELEVISION IN CHINA. (CLAPPING) AND THAT WAS SUCH A 06:52 THRILL AND THEN THE NEAT THING IS THEY MADE COPIES OF THAT AND 06:57 THEY CONTINUE TO MULTIPLY THAT. I JUST GOT A CALL FROM OUR 07:00 HEADQUARTERS THERE AND THEY SAID, 'CAN YOU COME BACK? 07:03 AND SO, THE GOSPEL - AND IT'S - IT'S NOW ON SATELLITE. 07:08 KAREN AND I ARE GOING NEXT MONTH TO NEW GUINEA AND THEY TELL US 07:11 THERE'LL BE - ABOUT 100,000 PEOPLE AT THIS ONE MEETING THAT 07:16 WE'RE GOING TO IN NEW GUINEA. WE'RE GOING TO BE IN AUSTRALIA. 07:19 AND I'M JUST ONE OF THOUSANDS OF MISSIONARIES THAT ARE OUT THERE 07:22 DOING IT. IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE DOING IT - 07:23 JESUS SAID THE GOSPEL WOULD GO TO THE WORLD - IT'S 07:25 GOING THE MIDDLE EAST. AMAZING FACTS GETS E-MAIL FROM 07:28 ALL THESE PEOPLE IN THE MIDDLE EAST THAT ARE WATCHING ONLINE. 07:32 AND SO, PEOPLE ARE SEARCHING AND THE GOSPEL IS GOING AND 07:35 MISSIONARIES ARE GOING. AND JESUS SAID, 'THEN THE END 07:38 WILL COME.' AND SO WE'RE SEEING, I THINK, THE FULFILLMENT 07:41 OF THAT IN THIS GENERATION. NOW I NEED TO PAUSE AT THIS 07:44 POINT AND DELVE INTO A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF OUR STUDY. 07:49 I'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT SIGNS OF CHRIST'S COMING. 07:51 NOW I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW HE'S COMING. 07:54 ABOUT WHAT? >>HOW. 07:55 >>HOW HE'S COMING - BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF CONFUSION ABOUT 07:59 HOW. NOW THERE'S GOING TO BE A 08:00 LOT OF PEOPLE IN HEAVEN THAT MISUNDERSTOOD HOW HE'S COMING. 08:03 DID THE APOSTLES MISUNDERSTAND HOW THE MESSIAH WAS COMING THE 08:07 FIRST TIME? THEY'LL BE IN HEAVEN. 08:10 BUT THEY HAD THE SCRIPTURES WRONG. 08:11 THEY THOUGHT WHEN THE MESSIAH CAME HE WAS GOING TO COME ON A 08:14 WHITE HORSE LIKE KING DAVID HE WAS GOING TO DESTROY ALL OF THE 08:17 ROMANS LIKE SAMSON OR SOMETHING. AND THEY WERE GOING TO BE A 08:20 WORLD EMPIRE LIKE SOLOMON - AND THEY JUST HAD ALL THESE GREAT, 08:23 GLORIOUS IDEAS ABOUT WHEN THE MESSIAH COMES AND JESUS SAID 08:26 'NO, NO, NO.' THAT'S WHEN I COME THE SECOND TIME - FIRST TIME I'M 08:29 COMING LIKE A LAMB, SECOND TIME I COME LIKE A LION.' 08:32 WELL, THE DEVIL'S DOING THE SAME THING TO THE CHURCH TODAY. 08:35 LOT OF GOOD PEOPLE ARE CONFUSED ABOUT HOW HE'S COMING SO THEY 08:38 WON'T BE PREPARED TO RECEIVE HIM. 08:41 A LOT OF CHRIST'S PEOPLE - THE JEWS - DID NOT RECEIVE HIM WHEN 08:44 HE CAME THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE THEY SAID, 'NAZARETH? 08:48 WHO? THERE'S NO PROPHET IN NAZARETH. 08:50 AND A POOR CARPENTER. HOW CAN THIS - CAN'T BE HIM.' 08:53 THEY MISUNDERSTOOD THAT HE WAS COMING FIRST AS A SACRIFICE. 08:57 WELL NOW THERE'S A LOT OF MISUNDERSTANDINGS. 08:59 THERE ARE PRINCIPALLY THREE VIEWS. 09:02 WHEN YOU READ REVELATION THERE'S ONE GROUP THAT'S - THEY'RE 09:05 CALLED PRETERISTS AND JUST THINK OF THE WORD PRE. 09:09 THEY BELIEVE THAT ALL OF REVELATION WAS PRETTY MUCH 09:12 FULFILLED BY 100 A.D.. THEY THINK NERO IS THE ANTICHRIST AND 09:15 THAT IT'S ALL BEHIND US - GOOD PEOPLE. 09:18 I RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE. THEN YOU HAVE FUTURISTS. 09:22 FUTURISTS ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE POPULARIZED THE VERSION - THE 09:26 LEFT BEHIND SCENARIO WHERE MOST OF REVELATION CHAPTER 4 - WHEN 09:30 JOHN SAYS 'I HEARD A VOICE AND A TRUMPET' - THAT'S ALL FUTURE. 09:35 THEN YOU HAVE, WHERE I FALL IN, WHAT THEY CALL HISTORISTS. 09:39 AND I AM IN THE COMPANY - THIS IS - USED TO BE THE OLD VIEW. 09:43 IT'S NOT AS POPULAR AS IT USED TO BE BUT IT'S WHAT THE 09:45 PROTESTANT REFORMERS BELIEVE IT MEANS REVELATION IS COVERING A 09:49 PANORAMA OF HISTORY, FROM THE FIRST COMING TO THE SECOND 09:53 COMING, AND YOU CAN KIND OF TRACK THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH 09:56 AND GOD'S PEOPLE ACROSS THAT HORIZON. 09:59 AND SO I'LL JUST TELL YOU RIGHT NOW THAT YOU'VE GOT THE TWO MAIN 10:02 VIEWS ARE THE FUTURIST VIEW - THERE'S NOT AS MANY PRETERISTS - 10:06 AND THE HISTORIC VIEW. THE FUTURIST VIEW IS 10:09 A FAIRLY NEW VIEW. IT WAS REALLY POPULARIZED BY HAL 10:13 LINDSEY'S BOOK - I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU REMEMBER A BOOK 10:15 CALLED THE LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH. 10:17 AND IN THAT BOOK HE PREDICTED THAT, BECAUSE ISRAEL WAS 10:19 ESTABLISHED AS A NATION IN 1948, IN 1981 THE SECRET RAPTURE WILL 10:24 TAKE PLACE; IN 1988 SEVEN YEARS LATER AFTER SEVEN YEARS OF 10:27 TRIBULATION JESUS WILL COME. AND NONE OF IT HAPPENED. 10:31 AND HE'S STILL SELLING BOOKS. BUT IT BECAME VERY POPULAR THEN. 10:38 I AM WITH THE GROUP THAT BELIEVES THAT THE TRIBULATION 10:42 COMES BEFORE JESUS COMES. THE OTHER GROUP BELIEVES THAT 10:46 WE ARE CAUGHT UP BEFORE THE TRIBULATION. 10:49 I'D LOVE TO BELIEVE THAT BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S WHAT THE 10:52 BIBLE TEACHES. AND WE WANT TO KNOW - AND I'M 10:55 GOING TO GIVE YOU BIBLICAL SCRIPTURE HERE. 10:57 IF YOU DISAGREE WITH ME THEN WE CAN STILL LOVE AND RESPECT EACH 10:59 OTHER, BUT YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO AT LEAST UNDERSTAND 11:01 YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS THAT MAY BELIEVE DIFFERENTLY, AMEN? 11:06 WE CAN DISAGREE AND STILL BE AGREEABLE, RIGHT? 11:09 WILL JESUS COME QUIETLY? LET'S LOOK AT WHAT 11:11 THE BIBLE SAYS. 1 THESSALONIANS 4:16, "FOR THE 11:15 LORD HIMSELF WILL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WITH A SHOUT WITH THE 11:18 VOICE OF THE ARCHANGEL AND THE TRUMP OF GOD. 11:20 AND THEN" - IT TELLS US - "THE DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE." 11:23 A TRUMP. YOU READ IN JEREMIAH 25:30 - IT 11:27 TELLS US, "THE LORD WILL ROAR FROM ON HIGH. 11:30 HE WILL UTTER HIS VOICE FROM HIS HOLY HABITATION. 11:33 HE WILL MIGHTILY ROAR UPON HIS HABITATION. 11:37 HE WILL GIVE A SHOUT." JESUS' COMING IS 11:40 A VERY LOUD EVENT. YOU READ IN PSALM 50 - IF THIS 11:43 WAS THE ONLY ONE IT WOULD BE PRETTY CONVINCING - IT SAYS 11:45 THERE, "OUR GOD SHALL COME AND HE WILL NOT KEEP SILENT AND IT 11:50 WILL BE VERY TEMPESTUOUS" - STORMY - "ROUND ABOUT HIM." 11:53 IT'S A GREAT CLIMATIC EVENT. AND SOMEONE MIGHT BE THINKING, 11:57 'WELL, PASTOR DOUG, THE BIBLE SAYS HE'S COMING LIKE A THIEF. 12:01 DOESN'T THAT MEAN HE'S COMING QUIETLY?' 12:03 I DON'T THINK SO. YOU CAN READ IN THE BIBLE WHERE 12:06 IT SAYS IN 2 PETER CHAPTER 3 IT SAYS, "THE DAY OF THE LORD WILL 12:10 COME AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT IN WHICH THE HEAVENS WILL PASS 12:14 AWAY WITH A GREAT NOISE" - WHAT HAPPENS IN THE DAY THAT 12:16 HE COMES LIKE A THIEF? NOTICE, "HEAVENS PASS AWAY WITH 12:19 GREAT NOISE" - THERE'S A NOISE AGAIN - "AND THE ELEMENTS 12:22 WILL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT. AND THE EARTH AND THE WORKS THAT 12:25 ARE IN IT WILL BE BURNED UP." SO, WHEN JESUS COMES S A THIEF, 12:29 DOES IT SOUND TO YOU LIKE LIFE GOES ON HERE ON EARTH? 12:34 HE'S COMING LIKE A THIEF. THAT JUST MEANS IT'S A SURPRISE. 12:38 NOW, I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH TO TELL YOU, BUT I'VE NOT ALWAYS 12:40 BEEN A CHRISTIAN. I USED TO BE A THIEF. 12:42 I WOULD BREAK INTO HOUSES AND STEAL - RIGHT HERE IN FLORIDA, 12:45 ACTUALLY, BECAUSE I USED TO LIVE IN SOUTHERN FLORIDA. 12:48 NOT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD SO I DON'T OWE YOU ANYTHING. 12:50 (RAUCOUS LAUGHTER) BUT I NEVER SENT OUT AN ANNOUNCEMENT AND 12:53 SAID 'I'LL BE COMING JUST ONE TO LET YOU KNOW.' 12:56 IT WAS A SURPRISE. SO THAT'S WHAT JESUS IS SAYING 12:58 IT'S GOING TO SURPRISE PEOPLE - BUT WHEN HE COMES. 13:02 THEY'RE GOING TO KNOW. 13:05 >> DON'T GO ANYWHERE, FRIENDS. 13:06 IN JUST A MOMENT, WE'RE GOING TO RETURN TO TODAY'S PRESENTATION. 13:10 HAVE YOU EVER WISHED THAT YOU COULD BE IN A WORLD WHERE 13:12 THERE'S NO MORE PAIN OR SORROW; TO BE DELIVERED FROM THIS WORLD 13:15 OF SUFFERING, HEARTACHE, AND GRIEF? 13:17 WELL, IT'S TRUE, JESUS IS COMING AGAIN, 13:19 AND WE HAVE A SPECIAL BEAUTIFULLY-ILLUSTRATED 13:22 RESOURCE WE'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU. 13:23 IT'S CALLED "THE ULTIMATE DELIVERANCE." 13:26 THIS RESOURCE, FILLED WITH SCRIPTURE, 13:28 TELLS US ABOUT THE SIGNS THAT PRECEDE THE SECOND COMING OF 13:31 JESUS, HOW TO AVOID BEING DECEIVED BY FALSE CHRISTS, 13:34 AND HOW YOU CAN BE READY FOR THE LORD'S RETURN. 13:37 TO GET YOUR FREE COPY, CALL THE PHONE NUMBER ON YOUR SCREEN AND 13:40 ASK FOR OFFER #105, OR VISIT THE WEB ADDRESS. 13:45 AND AFTER YOU READ THIS INCREDIBLE RESOURCE, 13:46 MAKE SURE AND SHARE IT WITH A FRIEND. 13:49 LET'S GET BACK NOW TO TODAY'S PRESENTATION AND LEARN SOME MORE 13:52 AMAZING FACTS FROM THE WORD OF GOD. 13:55 >> NOW WHO IS GOING TO SEE CHRIST WHEN HE RETURNS? IS IT ONLY A 13:59 SELECT GROUP THAT DISAPPEARS AND - LISTEN TO WHAT IT SAYS. 14:04 I CAN GIVE YOU SEVERAL VERSES HERE - MATTHEW 24:30, "AND THEN 14:07 SHALL APPEAR THE SIGN OF THE SON OF MAN IN HEAVEN AND THEN SHALL 14:11 ALL THE TRIBES OF THE EARTH MOURN AND THEY SHALL SEE THE SON 14:15 OF MAN COMING IN THE IN THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN WITH POWER AND 14:19 GREAT GLORY" - THEY'RE GOING TO SEE HIM COMING - GREAT POWER - 14:21 GREAT GLORY - MEANS BRILLIANT SPLENDOR. 14:24 AND AGAIN, REVELATION 1:7. BEHOLD, HE COMES WITH THE CLOUDS 14:28 AND EVERY EYE WILL SEE HIM. WHO WILL BE WITH 14:32 JESUS WHEN HE COMES? HE'S NOT COMING ALONE. 14:36 THE BIBLE SAYS THE SON OF MAN WILL COME IN HIS GLORY - THAT'S 14:40 THAT SPLENDOR - AND HOW MANY? >> ALL 14:43 >> ALL THE HOLY ANGELS WITH HIM. 14:46 WELL HOW MANY ANGELS ARE THERE? 14:49 LET'S THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A MINUTE. 14:52 MOST OF US HAVE A GUARDIAN ANGEL. 14:54 BIBLE SAYS JESUS SAID, SPEAKING OF CHILDREN, THEIR ANGELS DO 14:58 BEHOLD THE FACE OF MY FATHER' - IMPLYING THAT THEY'VE GOT AN 15:01 ANGEL WATCHING THEM. SEVEN BILLION PEOPLE IN THE 15:05 WORLD - GOD'S ANGELS NOT ONLY WATCH OVER PEOPLE, 15:08 THEY'RE DOING HIS WORK. THEY'RE THE MINISTERING SPIRITS. 15:10 THEY'RE THE ARMY OF GOD - THEY'RE CALLED THE HEAVENLY HOST 15:13 - VERY REAL CREATURES WITH INDIVIDUAL PERSONALITY - 15:16 BILLIONS OF THEM. NOW ONE ANGEL CAME DOWN FROM 15:21 GOD, YOU READ IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, IN THE DAYS OF KING 15:23 HEZEKIAH - THE ANGEL OF THE LORD WENT THROUGH THE ARMY OF 15:26 SYRIA - ONE ANGEL KILLED 185,000 ENEMY SOLDIERS IN ONE DAY. 15:32 THE ANGELS THAT WERE GUARDING THE TOMB OF JESUS - I'M SORRY - 15:35 WHEN THE ANGELS CAME TO THE TOMB OF JESUS AT THE RESURRECTION, 15:39 THE ROMAN SOLDIERS THAT WERE GUARDING THE TOMB WERE SO 15:41 FRIGHTENED BY THE GLORY OF THAT ANGEL THAT CAME DOWN AND ROLLED 15:44 AWAY THE STONE, THEY FELL OVER AS THOUGH THEY WERE DEAD. 15:47 ONE ANGEL. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE HEAVEN BEING 15:50 FILLED WITH THE BRILLIANCE OF BILLIONS OF ANGELS? 15:55 HE DIDN'T SAY WE'RE LEAVING ANY OF 'EM BEHIND. 15:57 HE SAID ALL THE ANGELS. ALL THE ANGELS HAVE BEEN 16:00 INVOLVED IN OUR SALVATION. THEY ARE GOING TO BE VERY 16:02 INTERESTED IN US BEING REDEEMED AND YOU'LL SEE, THEY PLAY A PART 16:06 IN OUR BEING COLLECTED, SO TO SPEAK. 16:10 WHAT WILL THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE GLORY OF LORD'S COMING AND ALL 16:13 THESE ANGELS DO TO THOSE WHO ARE NOT READY? 16:17 "WHEN JESUS SHALL BE REVEALED FROM HEAVEN WITH HIS MIGHTY 16:20 ANGELS IN FLAMING FIRE TAKING VENGEANCE ON THEM THAT KNOW NOT 16:26 GOD." AND, AGAIN, THAT WAS 2 16:28 THESSALONIANS, CHAPTER 1, VERSES 7 AND 8. 16:31 YOU CAN READ IN 2 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 2, VERSE 8, "AND THEN 16:35 SHALL THAT WICKED ONE BE REVEALED WHOM THE LORD WILL 16:38 CONSUME WITH THE SPIRIT OF HIS MOUTH AND DESTROY WITH THE 16:42 BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING." THE WICKED ONE'S DESTROYED BY 16:46 THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN WHEN YOU'RE 16:49 OUT THE FIELD ON A NICE SUNNY DAY AND YOU JUST CURIOUS, YOU 16:52 PICK UP A STONE, YOU TURN AND YOU SEE ALL THESE CRAWLY THINGS 16:54 START RUNNING FOR THE DARK. AND AT NIGHT YOU CAN LIGHT 16:59 SOMETHING OUT THE WOODS AND ALL OF THE MOTHS COME TO THE LIGHT. 17:03 YOU'VE GOT TWO KINDS OF BUGS OUT THERE. 17:06 YOU'VE GOT BUGS LIKE COCKROACHES THAT RUN FROM THE LIGHT, AND 17:09 YOU'VE GOT MOTHS AND BUTTERFLIES THAT LOVE THE LIGHT. 17:12 AND THAT'S THE KIND OF PEOPLE YOU GOT WHEN JESUS COMES. 17:14 YOU'VE GOT YOUR COCKROACHES AND YOUR BUTTERFLIES. 17:17 (RAUCOUS LAUGHTER) SO THOSE THAT ARE - IT'S REALLY - IF YOU DON'T 17:21 HAVE THE LORD IN YOUR LIFE, YOU ARE GOING TO BE TERRIFIED BY HIS 17:25 COMING. BUT IF YOU LOVE THE LORD, THE 17:26 BIBLE CALLS HIS COMING THE BLESSED HOPE. 17:29 >>AMEN. >>BUT HAVE YOU BEEN LIVING A 17:30 LIFE OF SELFISHNESS AND SIN, IT'S GOING TO FRIGHTEN 17:33 YOU AND IT SHOULD. GOD WANTS YOU TO HAVE PEACE, 17:36 BUT HE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO HAVE PEACE IF YOU'RE ON YOUR 17:38 WAY TO DESTRUCTION. HE WANTS YOU TO BE TROUBLED 17:40 UNTIL YOU REPENT AND COME TO HIM. 17:43 THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING WILL DESTROY THEM. 17:45 SO WHAT HAPPENS TO THE RIGHTEOUS WHO ARE DEAD AT JESUS' COMING? 17:50 FIRST WE'LL START WITH THE RIGHTEOUS WHO ARE DEAD. 17:52 YOU READ THERE THE DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE FIRST. 17:55 THAT'S WHERE WE READ IN 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 4 "THE 17:58 LORD HIMSELF WILL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WITH A SHOUT;" - THE 18:01 VOICE OF THE ARCHANGEL, THE TRUMPET OF GOD. 18:03 SOMEONE ONCE SAID THAT IS THE LOUDEST VERSE IN THE BIBLE AND 18:07 THE DEAD IN CHRIST RISE FIRST. SO DOES THAT SOUND LIKE 18:10 A SECRET STILL? AT THIS POINT, WHAT HAPPENS TO 18:14 THE LIVING WHO ARE - WHEN THE LORD COMES? 18:17 THE LIVING AND THE RESURRECTED SAINTS, I SHOULD SAY. 18:20 SO YOU GET THE DEAD IN CHRIST THEY RISE. 18:22 SOME OF US WE HOPE TO BE ALIVE WHEN JESUS COMES - I'D LIKE TO 18:25 IF I CAN, AVOID DEATH. WOODY ALLEN SAID ONE TIME, 18:30 'I'M NOT AFRAID OF DEATH. I JUST DON'T WANT TO BE THERE 18:31 WHEN IT HAPPENS.' (LAUGHTER) SO MOST OF US ARE PREWIRED BY GOD 18:37 THAT WE'D LIKE TO STAY ALIVE RIGHT? 18:39 SO WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO THOSE WHO ARE ALIVE? 18:41 IT SAYS THE DEAD IN CHRIST ARE RAISED INCORRUPTIBLE AND THOSE 18:44 OF US WHO ARE ALIVE WILL BE CHANGED IN A MOMENT. 18:48 IT TELLS US THIS CORRUPTIBLE WILL PUT ON INCORRUPTION - 18:51 CORRUPTIBLE MEANS OUR BODIES - WE, YOU KNOW, GET OLD, THEY 18:53 DECAY, THEY DIE. WE'RE GOING TO GET THESE 18:56 GLORIFIED BODIES - LIKE THE KIND ADAM AND EVE HAD BEFORE SIN 19:00 - BEFORE THE LIGHT WENT OUT. 'THIS CORRUPTIBLE WILL PUT ON 19:04 INCORRUPTION AND THIS MORTAL WILL PUT ON IMMORTALITY. 19:07 THEN WE WHICH ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN WILL BE CAUGHT UP 19:10 TOGETHER.' WHAT DIRECTION DO WE GO? 19:12 >>UP. >>THAT'S WHEN IT'S 19:13 TALKING ABOUT THE RAPTURE. WE WILL BE CAUGHT UP, OR 19:15 RAPTURED UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS. 19:19 WE MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR. SO JESUS' FEET DON'T TOUCH THE 19:22 GROUND WHEN HE COMES NEXT TIME, WE MEET HIM. 19:25 AND CHRIST SAID THIS IS HOW IT WOULD HAPPEN. 19:27 HE SAID, 'I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU AND IF I GO AND 19:29 PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN AND RECEIVE YOU UNTO 19:33 MYSELF - THAT'S WHEN WE'RE CAUGHT UP - 'THAT WHERE I AM' - 19:35 HE TAKES US WHERE? BACK TO HEAVEN - 'YOU 19:37 MAY BE ALSO' - RIGHT? WE'VE READ WHERE IT SAYS THE 19:40 LORD'S COMING IS LITERAL, PERSONAL, VISIBLE, AUDIBLE, 19:45 PHYSICAL, VITALITY - VITALIZING, GLORIOUS, CLIMATIC - 19:49 THERE'S AN EARTHQUAKE. EVERY SENSE IN YOUR BEING 19:52 WILL KNOW WHEN JESUS COMES. YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TEXT SOMEONE 19:54 AND SAY, 'DID YOU CATCH IT?' 'CATCH WHAT?' 19:56 'JESUS CAME WITH ALL THE ANGELS YESTERDAY DID YOU?' 19:58 - 'I MISSED IT. I DID NOTICE SOME PLANES GOING 20:01 DOWN AND CARS CAREENING OFF THE ROAD, BUT - THERE WAS A CLUMP OF 20:05 CLOTHES IN THE BED NEXT TO ME WHEN I WOKE UP. 20:07 I THINK IT WAS MY SPOUSE BUT THEY'RE GONE NOW.' YEAH, I KNOW 20:11 I'M TEASING MAYBE. I DON'T MEAN TO BE UNKIND BUT, 20:13 TO ME, I ACTUALLY KNOW PEOPLE WHO THINK 'WELL, IF I'M NOT 20:17 READY WHEN JESUS COMES, NO BIG DEAL. 20:20 IF MY SPOUSE - THEY'RE CHRISTIAN, THEY BELIEVE, IF THEY 20:23 DISAPPEAR THEN I'LL GET SERIOUS. I MIGHT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE 20:26 TRIBULATION BUT THEN I'LL KNOW IT'S TRUE. 20:29 AND YOU'D BE SURPRISED HOW MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE THINKING 20:31 THEY'RE GOING TO GET A SECOND CHANCE. 20:33 THAT'S WHY IT'S A VERY DANGEROUS THING TO NOT UNDERSTAND THE HOW 20:38 OF HIS COMING. ANOTHER REASON WAS BECAUSE 20:41 THE DEVILS GOT A LOT OF IMPERSONATORS OUT THERE. 20:45 WHAT SOLEMN WARNING DOES JESUS GIVE ABOUT THE SECOND COMING? 20:48 AS YOU START READING MATTHEW 11 - FIRST THING HE TOLD - I'M 20:52 SORRY - MATTHEW CHAPTER 24. FIRST THING HE SAYS IS BE AWARE 20:56 THAT NO ONE DECEIVES YOU. HE REPEATS IT OVER AND OVER. 20:59 'MANY WILL COME IN MY NAME SAYING I AM CHRIST AND DECEIVE 21:03 MANY.' AND I REMEMBER BAPTIZING A YOUNG LADY THAT WAS IN 21:07 JONESTOWN WITH JIM JONES. SHE ESCAPED JUST BEFORE THINGS 21:11 ALL WENT SIDEWAYS THERE AND TOLD HORRIBLE STORIES. 21:15 HE STARTED OUT METHODIST PREACHER - GOOD CHURCH - 21:18 PREACHING FROM THE BIBLE AND JUST - BUT HE WAS A FALSE 21:21 PROPHET. SEE, HE SAID, ULTIMATELY, HE WAS CHRIST. 21:26 JESUS SAID THERE WILL ARISE FALSE CHRISTS. 21:29 THEY WILL SHOW SIGNS AND WONDERS. 21:31 ARE MIRACLE, SIGNS, AND WONDERS THE EVIDENCE OF WHO IS REAL AND 21:33 WHO'S NOT? CAN THE DEVIL DO MIRACLES? 21:35 >>YES. >>HE CAN. 21:37 WE'LL TALK MORE ABOUT THAT. AND THEY'LL DO THIS TO DECEIVE, 21:40 IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, THE VERY ELECT. 21:41 IN OTHER WORDS, YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS BECAUSE THE 21:44 DEVIL'S GOING TO HAVE POWERFUL DECEPTIONS IN THE LAST DAYS. 21:47 SOME OF US REMEMBER THE HEAVEN'S GATE GROUP. 21:49 MARSHALL APPLEWHITE - 39 PEOPLE BELIEVED THIS POOR DERANGED MAN 21:54 WHO SAID THAT HE WAS A REINCARNATION OF CHRIST AND THEY 21:58 NEEDED TO COMMIT SUICIDE SO THEY COULD GET ON A SPACESHIP THAT 22:01 WAS BEHIND THE HALE-BOTT COMET - HALE-BOTT COMET - AND THEY TOOK 22:07 THIS DEADLY COCKTAIL. 39 PEOPLE COMMITTED SUICIDE. 22:11 AND HE SAID GOD WAS SENDING MESSAGES THROUGH STAR TREK. 22:15 THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A GOD SENDING MESSAGES, BUT IT WASN'T 22:17 JESUS. WHAT'S GOING TO PREVENT THE 22:20 RIGHTEOUS FROM BEING DECEIVED IN THE LAST DAYS? 22:23 ISAIAH 8:20 - THAT'S WHY WE WANT TO KNOW YOUR BIBLES. 22:26 I HOPE YOU CHECK ON EVERYTHING I'M SAYING. 22:28 YOU CAN TAKE NOTES. THE BIBLE SAYS, 'TO THE 22:30 LAW AND TO THE TESTIMONY. THAT'S HOW THE BIBLE REFERS TO 22:32 THE BIBLE - THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS - 'IF THEY SPEAK NOT 22:35 ACCORDING TO THIS WORD IT'S BECAUSE THERE'S NO LIGHT IN 22:38 THEM.' YOU MEASURE EVERYTHING BY THE SCRIPTURES YOU NEED TO KNOW. 22:42 JESUS SAID, 'SEEK AND YOU'LL FIND.' AMEN? 22:45 WHAT WILL THE WICKED SAY WHEN JESUS RETURNS? 22:48 'AND THE KINGS OF THE EARTH AND THE GREAT MEN AND THE RICH MEN 22:52 IN THE CHIEF CAPTAINS AND THE MIGHTY MEN AND EVERY BONDMAN AND 22:55 EVERY FREE MAN' - SPEAKING OF THE LOST - 'THEY SAID TO THE 22:59 MOUNTAINS AND TO THE ROCKS, 'FALL ON US AND HIDE US FROM THE 23:02 FACE OF HIM THAT SITS ON THE THRONE. 23:05 FOR THE GREAT DAY OF HIS WRATH IS COME AND WHO SHALL BE ABLE TO 23:08 STAND?'' I TOLD YOU, ONCE AGAIN, TWO 23:10 KINDS OF PEOPLE - YOU'VE GOT THE ONES WHO KNOW CHRIST 23:13 AND HE'S IN THEIR HEART. YOU HAVE THOSE WHO HAVE RESISTED 23:15 HIM AND THEY BECOME HIS ENEMIES. YOU'VE EITHER GOT THE LOVE OF 23:19 GOD OR THE WRATH OF THE LAMB. I WANT HIM TO COME AS MY 23:21 LORD AND MY SAVIOR NOT AS MY ADVERSARY. AMEN? 23:26 WHAT IS THE PRIME REASON FOR JESUS' SECOND COMING? 23:30 IS HE COMING TO GET EVEN WITH THE LOST? 23:32 NO, HE'S COMING TO REDEEM HIS OWN. 23:35 JOHN 14:3, "I WILL COME AGAIN AND RECEIVE YOU UNTO MYSELF THAT 23:40 WHERE I AM YOU MIGHT BE" - WHERE I AM YOU MIGHT BE. 23:43 REVELATION SAYS GOD, HIMSELF, WILL BE WITH US. 23:46 WE WILL SEE HIS FACE. CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT? 23:50 "NOW WE SEE THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY BUT THEN FACE TO FACE." 23:53 1 CORINTHIANS 13. WHAT A PRIVILEGE THAT WE 23:56 CAN SEE GOD FACE TO FACE. YOU KNOW, FRIENDS, GOD IS GIVING 24:01 US THE SIGNS ALONG THE WAY AND I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT THERE 24:06 ARE SOME DIFFICULT DAYS AHEAD. I BELIEVE THERE'S GOING 24:10 TO BE A TRIBULATION. SEE, I BELIEVE THE 24:12 LORD IS COMING. I BELIEVE WE'LL BE CAUGHT UP, 24:14 BUT I BELIEVE THE TRIBULATION COMES BEFORE THE RAPTURE. 24:17 >>THAT'S RIGHT. >>DOES GOD SAVE HIS PEOPLE 24:19 FROM TROUBLE OR THROUGH IT? >>THROUGH IT. 24:22 DID GOD SAVE NOAH FROM THE FLOOD OR DID HE SAVE HIM THROUGH 24:25 THE STORM? >THROUGH THE STORM. 24:27 >>DID GOD SAVE JOSEPH FROM HIS TRIALS OR THROUGH THEM? 24:30 HOW ABOUT JOB? WAS HE SAVED FROM TRIBULATION 24:33 OR THROUGH TRIBULATION? DOESN'T PAUL SAY 'IT IS THROUGH 24:36 MUCH TRIBULATION WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD'? 24:40 GOD IS COMING FOR A CHURCH WITHOUT SPOT OR WRINKLE OR ANY 24:44 SUCH THINGS. YOU GET OUT THE SPOTS AND THE 24:46 WRINKLE WITH A HOT IRON AND HOT WATER. 24:48 SO THE IDEA THAT THE CHURCH IS NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH ANY KIND 24:51 OF PURGING OR PURIFICATION BEFORE THAT - WHEN DOES A CHURCH 24:54 SHINE THE BRIGHTEST, IN THE LIGHT OR IN THE DARKNESS? 24:59 THERE IS GOING TO BE A TIME OF GREAT DARKNESS. 25:01 JESUS SAID IT WAS AT MIDNIGHT THE CRY WAS GIVEN. 25:03 BEHOLD THE BRIDEGROOM COMES. AND SO THERE ARE SOME 25:06 DIFFICULT DAYS AHEAD. I DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT. 25:09 YOU KNOW WHY? GOD SAID IF YOU MAKE THE MOST 25:13 HIGH YOUR HABITATION YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AFRAID. 25:16 >>AMEN. >>HE HAS GIVEN US SIGNS. 25:19 AND SOME OF CHRISTIANS ARE LOSING HOPE, RIGHT HERE ON THE 25:22 BORDERS OF THE GREATEST EVENT IN HISTORY. 25:25 YOU KNOW, I LOVE HISTORY. I REMEMBER READING ABOUT 25:27 CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS WHEN HE WAS CROSSING THE OCEAN, YOU KNOW, 25:30 AND HE JUST WENT LAUNCHING OUT AND HE SAID, 'WE'RE GOING TO GO 25:33 DISCOVER A NEW PASSAGE.' NONE OF THE EXPLORERS FROM PORTUGAL OR 25:37 SPAIN WENT VERY FAR INTO THE ATLANTIC AS THEY HAD RUMORS 25:40 YOU WERE GOING TO SAIL OFF THE EARTH, THERE WERE DRAGONS OUT 25:42 THERE, AND ALL THESE SCARY STORIES. 25:45 AND HE SAID 'WE'RE JUST GOING TO SAIL WEST UNTIL WE FIND OUR 25:49 OBJECTIVE.' AND, YOU KNOW, AFTER TWO MONTHS IN AUGUST AND 25:53 SEPTEMBER, THOSE SAILORS WERE READY TO MUTINY. 25:55 AND COLUMBUS - YOU - READ HIS DIARY. 25:58 HE PRAYED A LOT. HE BELIEVED HE WAS 26:00 ON A DIVINE QUEST. HE FINALLY TOLD HIS SAILORS, 26:03 GIVE ME THREE MORE DAYS. IF WE DON'T SEE LAND WE'LL TURN 26:05 AROUND.' CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT WAS AT STAKE? 26:08 BUT AS THOSE DAYS PASSED THEY BEGAN TO SEE SIGNS - OVERTURNED 26:13 CANOE WENT BY AND THEY SAW COCONUTS FLOAT BY - SOME TUFTS 26:17 OF VEGETATION. WATER BEGAN TO CHANGE COLOR AND 26:19 SALTINESS CHANGED IN THE WATER. THEY NOTICED WHEN THEY WERE 26:22 SOUNDING THAT IT WAS GETTING SHALLOWER. 26:25 THEY - SONGBIRDS CAME BY - THEY COULDN'T SEE LAND BUT THEY SAW 26:29 THE SIGNS THAT THEY WERE NEARING SHORE. 26:32 AND THEY WERE ALL ENCOURAGED BY THE SIGNS TO PRESS ON. 26:34 FINALLY, AT THE END OF THE THIRD DAY, AT NIGHT, THEY SAW A FIRE 26:39 IN THE DISTANCE. NEXT MORNING THEY SPOTTED 26:41 LAND - SAN SALVADOR. WELL, FRIENDS, WE SEE THE SIGNS. 26:45 JESUS IS ABOUT TO COME. I WANT TO BE READY. 26:48 HOW ABOUT YOU? 26:52 Doug: Terror attacks, natural disasters, 26:55 political instability, and global, economic meltdown. 27:00 These are the images people generally associate 27:02 with the Tribulation and the Day of the Lord. 27:05 But did you know the Bible speaks about another 27:08 Day of the Lord just before the great Judgement Day? 27:11 Amazingly, imprinted on the very fabric of time itself is 27:16 a 24-hour period called the Sabbath that was meant to 27:19 forever be a time of restoration for every human being, 27:23 a day the entire world has largely forgotten. 27:26 You'll be surprised to learn how this special Day of the Lord 27:30 factors into last-day prophecies such as the mark of the beast, 27:34 the seal of God, and the great, final tribulation. 27:37 It's all contained in this new eye-opening DVD series called, 27:42 "The Last Day of Prophecy." 27:44 To order call, 800-538-7275, or visit, 27:50 afbookstore.com. 27:57 ANNOUNCER: DON'T FORGET TO REQUEST TODAY'S FREE OFFER. 27:59 IT'S SURE TO BE A BLESSING. 28:01 AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT AS WE TAKE THE GOSPEL OF 28:04 JESUS CHRIST TO THE WORLD. 28:06 WE HOPE YOU'LL JOIN US NEXT WEEK AS WE DELVE DEEP INTO THE WORD 28:10 OF GOD TO EXPLORE MORE AMAZING FACTS. 28:22 >> THIS PRESENTATION WAS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE FRIENDS OF THE 28:25 AMAZING FACTS MINISTRY. |
