00:02 THIS PRESENTATION IS BROUGHT TO YOU
00:03 BY THE FRIENDS OF THE AMAZING FACTS MINISTRY. 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 HI, FRIENDS, DON'T GO ANYWHERE, 09:45 IN JUST A MOMENT WE WILL BE BACK 09:47 TO COMPLETE TODAY'S PRESENTATION. 09:49 HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED ABOUT THIS ENIGMATIC CHARACTER 09:51 IN THE BIBLE CALLED MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL? 09:54 WELL, THAT'S THE TITLE OF THE BOOK 09:56 WE'D LIKE TO SEND YOU FOR FREE. 09:58 MICHAEL SUDDENLY APPEARS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, 10:01 HE IS WORSHIPED BY JOSHUA, 10:02 AND IN OTHER PLACE HE IS INVOLVED IN THE RESURRECTION. 10:05 THE BIBLE SAYS, HE'S CONNECTED WITH THE SECOND COMING. 10:07 THE LORD HIMSELF WILL DESCEND FROM HEAVEN 10:09 WITH THE VOICE OF THE ARCHANGEL. 10:11 YOU EVEN FIND MICHAEL FIGHTING WITH THE DEVIL IN REVELATION. 10:15 TO GET YOUR FREE COPY, CALL THE PHONE NUMBER ON YOUR SCREEN 10:18 AND ASK FOR OFFER NUMBER 170 OR VISIT THE WEB ADDRESS. 10:22 AND AFTER YOU READ THIS INCREDIBLE RESOURCE, 10:24 MAKE SURE AND SHARE IT WITH A FRIEND. 10:26 WELL, LET'S GET BACK NOW TO TODAY'S PRESENTATION 10:28 AND LEARN SOME MORE AMAZING FACTS FROM THE WORD OF GOD. 10:32 SO HOW DO WE DETERMINE. 10:34 WHERE DO WE GO TO FIND OUT? 10:36 THE BIBLE TELLS US AND JESUS HIMSELF SAID IN JOHN 5:39, 10:41 "SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES, 10:42 IN THEM YOU THINK YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE," 10:44 HE SAID, "THESE ARE THEY THAT TESTIFY OF ME." 10:48 NOW WHEN JESUS SAID THAT, 10:49 HOW MUCH NEW TESTAMENT WAS WRITTEN? 10:51 NONE. NONE. 10:53 AND SO, LET ME SEE IF I CAN ILLUSTRATE SOMETHING 10:55 AND I AM GLAD TO SEE SOME OF YOU 10:56 BROUGHT YOUR BIBLES HERE. I'M GOING TO QUICKLY... 10:58 OH, GOOD, I'VE FOUND IT RIGHT AWAY. 11:00 THIS IS YOUR BIBLE, I'VE DIVIDED IT 11:02 JUST VISUALLY SO YOU GET A ROUGH IDEA. 11:04 YOU KNOW, THERE'S SOME CONTENTS AND CONCORDANCE 11:07 AND STUFF IN THE FRONT AND THE BACK, 11:08 BUT APPROXIMATELY THREE QUARTERS OF THE BIBLE, 11:11 OLD TESTAMENT, THIS IS WRITTEN BEFORE JESUS. 11:15 MATTER OF FACT, THE LAST BOOK MALACHI IN THE OLD TESTAMENT 11:17 WAS WRITTEN ABOUT 400 YEARS BEFORE JESUS WAS BORN. 11:20 SO THERE'S A NICE SPREAD BETWEEN THE TWO. 11:22 AND THEN YOU GET TO THE NEW TESTAMENT, 11:24 IT TALKS ABOUT THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST. 11:27 FIRST WORDS IN REVELATION ARE THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST. 11:30 FIRST WORDS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, 11:31 THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS CHRIST. 11:34 SO IT TELLS ABOUT THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH. 11:36 THE OLD TESTAMENT FORETELLS WHEN THE SAVIOR WOULD COME, 11:39 WHEN GOD WOULD BECOME A MAN. 11:41 AND A LOT OF THE OLD TESTAMENT IS TALKING ABOUT CHRIST. 11:45 THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PROPHECIES. 11:46 SO WE'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING NOW AT A LOT OF PROPHECIES HERE 11:50 THAT WERE WRITTEN HUNDREDS, IN SOME CASES, 11:52 MORE THAN A THOUSAND YEARS BEFORE CHRIST WAS BORN, 11:55 AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO SEE HERE 11:56 THAT EXACTLY WHAT WAS FORETOLD HAPPENED. 12:00 AND THIS IS ONE REASON 12:01 I THINK THIS IS NOT JUST WHITE PAGES AND BLACK INK. 12:04 I BELIEVE THE BIBLE 12:06 IS A SUPERNATURAL CORRESPONDENCE WITH HUMANITY 12:09 AND GOD HAS DONE SOMETHING MIRACULOUSLY 12:12 TO PROTECT THIS BOOK. 12:13 SO WE'RE GOING TO LOOK IN THE BIBLE. 12:15 FURTHERMORE, LUKE 24:27, JESUS, 12:20 WHEN HE WAS TALKING TO THE TWO DISCIPLES 12:22 ON THE ROAD TO EMMAUS, 12:23 HE SAID, "HE EXPOUNDED UNTO THEM BEGINNING AT MOSES 12:27 AND ALL THE PROPHETS HE EXPOUNDED TO THEM 12:30 IN ALL OF THE SCRIPTURES 12:31 THE THINGS CONCERNING HIMSELF." 12:34 SO JESUS GAVE A BIBLE STUDY TO THESE TWO DISCIPLES 12:36 AND HE SHOWED THEM THROUGH ALL OF THE SCRIPTURES, 12:39 PRIOR TO THE NEW TESTAMENT, THINGS CONCERNING HIMSELF. 12:42 AND YOU'RE GOING TO SEE 12:43 THAT JESUS IS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THERE. 12:45 I'VE BEEN TO CHURCHES BEFORE WHERE THEY SUPPLY A BIBLE 12:48 AND ALL THEY HAVE IS A NEW TESTAMENT. 12:50 THEY SAY, "WELL, WE'RE A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH, 12:51 WE DON'T, THAT'S THE OLD COVENANT." 12:53 YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND THE NEW TESTAMENT 12:56 WITHOUT THE OLD TESTAMENT. 12:58 IT'S THE MOON THAT THE WOMAN STANDS ON, 13:02 THOUGH SHE IS CLOTHED WITH THE SUN OF THE NEW TESTAMENT, 13:04 IT'S THE FOUNDATION. 13:05 THE OLD TESTAMENT IS SO IMPORTANT 13:07 TO UNDERSTAND THE NEW. 13:09 AND AGAIN, HEBREWS 10:7, "HE 13:12 SAID, 'BEHOLD, I COME. 13:13 IN THE VOLUME OF THE BOOK IT IS WRITTEN OF ME 13:16 TO DO YOUR WILL, O GOD." 13:18 SO THE WHOLE BIBLE IS TELLING US ABOUT JESUS. 13:21 DOES PROPHECY FORETELL THE MESSIAH'S FAMILY TREE? 13:26 AND THE ANSWER IS, ABSOLUTELY YES. 13:29 FOR ONE THING, GOD TOLD ABRAHAM 13:32 HE WAS CALLING HIM FROM MESOPOTAMIA. 13:35 HE SAID, "THROUGH YOUR DESCENDANTS, 13:37 THE MESSIAH WOULD COME." 13:38 AND YOU FIND THAT IN GENESIS 12:3, 13:41 "IN YOU SHALL ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH BE BLESSED." 13:45 THROUGH YOUR DESCENDANTS 13:46 THAT THE MESSIAH WOULD COME THROUGH THE HEBREW LINE. 13:49 NOW YOU REALIZE, A JEW AND A HEBREW IS DIFFERENT. 13:52 ABRAHAM HAD MORE CHILDREN THAN JUST ISAAC 13:54 AND ISAAC HAD MORE CHILDREN THAN JUST JACOB. 13:57 AND JACOB HAD MORE CHILDREN THAN JUST JUDAH. 14:00 THE WORD "JEW" KIND OF COMES FROM THE DESCENDANTS OF JUDAH, 14:02 PRINCIPALLY. 14:04 BUT WE OFTEN USE IT TO TALK ABOUT HEBREWS, IN GENERAL. 14:07 BUT THE MESSIAH WOULD COME THROUGH 14:09 THE DESCENDANTS OF NOT ONLY ABRAHAM, BUT ISAAC. 14:12 YOU READ IN GENESIS 26:4, IT SAYS 14:14 "I WILL GIVE YOUR DESCENDANTS THESE LANDS, 14:17 AND IN YOUR SEED ALL THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD 14:20 WOULD BE BLESSED." 14:21 BECAUSE JESUS DID NOT JUST COME FOR JEWS, DID HE? 14:23 HE CAME TO SAVE EVERYBODY. 14:25 "WHOSOEVER WILL" THE PROMISE IS. 14:28 HE TOLD THE DISCIPLES, GO TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH. 14:30 AND THEN, NOT ONLY DID IT COME FROM ABRAHAM THROUGH ISAAC, 14:34 SEE ABRAHAM ALSO HAD ISHMAEL 14:36 AND SEVERAL OTHER CHILDREN THROUGH KETURAH. 14:38 ISAAC ALSO HAD ESAU. 14:41 BUT HE SAID THE BLESSING WOULD COME THROUGH JACOB 14:44 AND JACOB PROPHESIED. 14:46 YOU SEE THE PROPHECY IN NUMBERS 24:17. 14:49 "A STAR WILL COME OUT OF JACOB, 14:50 A SCEPTER" A SCEPTER'S WHAT A KING HOLDS, 14:53 "WILL RISE OUT OF ISRAEL." 14:55 THERE WOULD BE THIS KING, 14:56 THE KING OF KINGS THAT WOULD COME. 14:58 BY THE WAY, THAT'S THE PROPHECY, PROBABLY, 14:59 THAT THE WISE MEN IN THE EAST WERE READING WHEN THEY CAME 15:03 AND FOLLOWED THE STAR. 15:04 THE STAR THAT SAID, THERE WAS A NEW KING THAT WOULD COME. 15:07 AND THEN WHEN HE WAS DYING THERE IN GENESIS 49, JACOB, 15:12 LATER CALLED ISRAEL, HE PROPHESIED THAT OF HIS SONS, 15:15 AND HE HAD 12 SONS AND ONE DAUGHTER, 15:17 THE MESSIAH WOULD THEN BE COMING 15:19 SPECIFICALLY THROUGH WHICH ONE? 15:21 JUDAH, RIGHT? 15:24 YOU ALL WITH ME? YOU ALL KNEW THAT, DIDN'T YOU? 15:26 THE MESSIAH WOULD COME THROUGH OF THE 12 SONS OF JACOB, 15:29 HE WOULD COME THROUGH JUDAH. 15:31 AND HE SAYS THERE IN GENESIS 49, 15:33 "THE SCEPTER WILL NOT DEPART FROM JUDAH, 15:35 NOR A LAWGIVER FROM BETWEEN HIS FEET, UNTIL SHILOH COME," 15:39 THAT MEANS THE KING OF PEACE. 15:41 AND UNTO HIM SHALL THE GATHERING OF THE PEOPLE BE. 15:44 SO IT WOULD COME THROUGH THE TRIBE OF JUDAH. 15:46 "THERE WILL COME FORTH A ROD FROM THE STEM OF JESSE..." 15:49 JESSE WAS THE FATHER OF DAVID. 15:51 "AND A BRANCH WILL GROW FROM HIS ROOTS." 15:53 IT SAID THE MESSIAH WOULD COME FROM THE HOUSEHOLD OF DAVID. 15:56 "AND THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD WILL REST UPON HIM." 15:59 WELL, WHY DOES IT SAY, "THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD?" 16:02 THE VERY WORD "MESSIAH" 16:03 IN THE OLD TESTAMENT MEANS ANOINTED, 16:07 THE WORD CHRIST, CHRISTOS, IT'S GREEK FOR THE ANOINTED. 16:12 YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY CHRISTEN A SHIP, 16:14 THEY SPLASH THE BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE OR WINE ON IT 16:17 AND IT'S CALLED A CHRISTENING. 16:19 AN ANOINTING MEANS TO SHOWER SOMETHING. 16:22 JESUS WAS TO BE SHOWERED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD 16:26 AND THEY CALLED HIM THE ANOINTED 16:28 THAT CAME THROUGH THE DESCENDANTS OF DAVID. 16:31 NOW YOU GO TO THE NEW TESTAMENT 16:33 AND YOU SEE WAS IT FULFILLED? 16:35 AND YOU CAN READ IN LUKE 1:26, 16:38 "NOW IN THE SIXTH MONTH THE ANGEL GABRIEL 16:42 WAS SENT BY GOD TO A CITY IN GALILEE NAMED NAZARETH..." 16:46 WHERE'D THE ANGEL GO? 16:47 I WANT YOU TO CATCH THAT 16:49 BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE A PROBLEM HERE IN THE MOMENT. 16:51 "TO A VIRGIN THAT WAS BETROTHED TO A MAN 16:53 WHOSE NAME WAS JOSEPH OF THE HOUSE OF" WHERE? 16:56 "HOUSE OF DAVID. 16:58 THE VIRGIN'S NAME WAS MARY." 16:59 AND THIS ALL SOUNDS LIKE A CHRISTMAS SERMON. 17:01 YOU ALL KNOW THIS STORY, RIGHT? 17:03 BUT BOTH MARY AND JOSEPH WERE DESCENDANTS FROM DAVID. 17:06 YOU FIND THE GENEALOGY OF MARY 17:08 GOING THROUGH HER FATHER BACK TO JESUS IN LUKE, 17:12 AND THE GENEALOGY FOLLOWS JOSEPH IN MATTHEW. 17:15 SO EITHER WAY THEY WERE BOTH DESCENDANTS OF DAVID 17:20 AND, FURTHERMORE, IT SAYS THAT JESUS 17:22 WOULD COME THROUGH NOT JUST THE HOUSE OF DAVID, 17:24 BUT THE MOTHER WOULD BE A VIRGIN. 17:25 NOW THAT CERTAINLY IS UNIQUE, RIGHT? 17:28 YOU READ THAT PROPHECY IN ISAIAH 7:14, 17:33 "BEHOLD A VIRGIN WILL CONCEIVE AND BEAR A SON, 17:36 AND THEY'LL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," 17:38 WHICH MEANS GOD WITH US. 17:41 JUMP TO THE NEW TESTAMENT. 17:42 BY THE WAY, THAT'S WRITTEN 700 YEARS 17:44 BEFORE JESUS WAS BORN, 17:46 FORETOLD THAT THE MESSIAH WOULD BE BORN OF A VIRGIN. 17:49 NOW YOU GO TO THE NEW TESTAMENT AND YOU READ IN MATTHEW 1:18. 17:53 IT SAYS THAT, "NOW THE BIRTH OF JESUS WAS AS FOLLOWS: 17:57 AFTER HIS MOTHER MARY WAS BETROTHED OR ENGAGED TO JOSEPH, 18:01 BEFORE THEY CAME TOGETHER, 18:03 SHE WAS FOUND TO BE WITH CHILD." 18:05 AND, OF COURSE, WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THE VIRGIN BIRTH OF MARY, 18:11 VIRGIN BIRTH OF JESUS, BUT MARY WAS THE VIRGIN. 18:13 YEAH. 18:16 WHAT ABOUT WHERE HE WOULD BE BORN? 18:18 DOES THE BIBLE TALK SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE ANY DOUBTS 18:20 ABOUT WHO THE SAVIOR OF MAN WOULD BE? 18:23 NO DOUBTS ABOUT WHEN GOD BECAME A MAN. 18:24 WHO IS IT? 18:26 IT WASN'T JUST ONE OF MANY WISE MEN OR PROPHETS THROUGH TIME. 18:29 IT WAS JESUS. 18:30 THE PLACE OF HIS BIRTH IS FORETOLD 18:32 IN THE BOOK OF MICAH 18:33 ABOUT 600 YEARS BEFORE CHRIST. 18:36 HE SPECIFICALLY SAID, "BUT YOU, BETHLEHEM EPHRATHAH, 18:39 THOUGH YOU ARE LITTLE AMONG THE THOUSANDS OF JUDAH, 18:42 UNTO YOU, YET OUT OF YOU SHALL COME FORTH TO ME 18:46 THE ONE WHO IS TO BE THE RULER IN ISRAEL, 18:48 WHOSE GOINGS FORTH ARE FROM OLD, 18:50 EVEN FROM EVERLASTING." 18:52 SO IT'S ANOTHER PROPHECY HERE. 18:54 WHAT DOES IT TELL US ABOUT JESUS? 18:56 HE'S FROM EVERLASTING. 18:57 SEE, CHRIST DIDN'T JUST APPEAR 18:59 WHEN HE WAS BORN FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING. 19:02 YOU KNOW, IN REVELATION, HE'S REFERRED TO AS THE ETERNAL ONE. 19:07 HE'S THE "I AM" THERE. 19:09 HE'S THE ONE WHO IS THE FIRST AND THE LAST, 19:12 THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA. 19:14 SO CHRIST IS FROM EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING. 19:17 HE WAS ETERNAL. 19:18 AND IT SAYS THAT HE'D BE BORN IN BETHLEHEM. 19:21 DID THAT HAPPEN? 19:23 NOW, WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM. 19:24 WHEN THE ANGEL CAME TO MARY, YOU HEARD ME SAY A MINUTE AGO? 19:27 WHERE WAS SHE? 19:29 GALILEE. AND WHAT CITY? NAZARETH. 19:32 I'VE GOT A MAP UP HERE ON THE SCREEN. 19:33 NOW YOU'RE GOING TO SEE NAZARETH 19:34 AS THE CROW FLIES ABOUT 70 MILES AWAY. 19:38 SHE'S GREAT WITH CHILD. 19:39 SHE'S A LONG WAY FROM HOME. 19:40 HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET THE MESSIAH BORN, 19:42 AS HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE BORN, 19:44 IN THE CITY OF DAVID, BETHLEHEM? 19:46 WELL, THIS IS ONE OF THE ONLY TIMES IN HISTORY 19:49 WE NEED TO THANK A POLITICIAN FOR DOING A TAX INCREASE. 19:54 CAESAR AUGUSTUS. 19:56 LUKE 2:1, ISSUED A DECREE, 20:00 "AND IT CAME TO PASS IN THOSE DAYS 20:01 THAT THERE WENT OUT A DECREE FROM CAESAR AUGUSTUS 20:04 THAT ALL THE WORLD SHOULD BE TAXED 20:06 AND THEY HAD TO GO REGISTER FOR THE TAX IN THEIR OWN CITY. 20:11 AND JOSEPH ALSO WENT UP FROM GALILEE 20:14 OUT OF THE CITY OF NAZARETH INTO JUDEA 20:17 THERE TO BE REGISTERED, 20:19 TO BE TAXED AND REGISTERED WITH HIS WIFE, 20:21 MARY" OR HIS ESPOUSED WIFE "BEING GREAT WITH CHILD." 20:25 AND, OF COURSE, WHILE THEY ARE THERE WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. 20:29 "AND SO IT WAS, WHILE THEY WERE THERE, 20:31 THE DAYS WERE ACCOMPLISHED THAT SHE SHOULD BE DELIVERED. 20:34 AND SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER FIRSTBORN SON." 20:37 AND THIS IS, OF COURSE, FULFILLING THAT THE MESSIAH 20:39 WOULD BE BORN IN BETHLEHEM. 20:41 WHEN THE SHEPHERDS SAW THE ANGELS WHERE WERE THEY? 20:43 "THERE WERE DWELLING IN THOSE DAYS 20:44 OUTSIDE BETHLEHEM SHEPHERDS WATCHING THEIR FLOCKS." 20:48 NOW, YOU KNOW IT'S ALWAYS BEEN AMAZING TO ME, 20:51 YOU KNOW WHAT BETHLEHEM MEANS? 20:53 BETH MEANS HOUSE. 20:55 BETHLEHEM, THAT MEANS HOUSE OF BREAD. 20:58 AND JESUS IS THE BREAD OF LIFE. 21:01 AND AFTER HE WAS BORN, HE WAS PLACED IN A MANGER. 21:04 A MANGER IS A TROUGH FOR PUTTING GRAIN FOR THE ANIMALS. 21:08 SO HERE YOU'VE GOT THE BREAD OF LIFE 21:09 BORN IN THE HOUSE OF BREAD PLACED IN A TROUGH FOR BREAD. 21:12 JESUS IS THE BREAD OF LIFE. 21:16 "AND SO SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER FIRSTBORN SON, 21:18 WRAPPED HIM IN SWADDLING CLOTHES, 21:20 AND LAID HIM IN A MANGER, 21:21 BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR HIM IN THE INN." 21:25 AND AGAIN THE ANGELS SAID "FOR UNTO YOU IS BORN" 21:28 THEY TOLD THE SHEPHERDS, "IN THE CITY OF DAVID." 21:30 JESUS WOULD BE A DESCENDANT OF DAVID BORN IN THE TOWN OF DAVID 21:34 AND IT WAS ALL FORETOLD BY THE PROPHETS, 21:37 THE SAVIOR WHO IS CHRIST THE ANOINTED, THE LORD. 21:41 AND WHEN CHRIST WAS A BABY, EIGHT DAYS OLD, 21:44 THEY BRING HIM TO THE TEMPLE TO BE NAMED AND CIRCUMCISED, 21:48 WHICH WAS TECHNICALLY THE FIRST TIME HE SHED BLOOD. 21:51 WHEN THEY CALLED HIS NAME JESUS, 21:53 HE WILL SAVE HIS PEOPLE FROM THEIR SINS. 21:55 THE PRIEST THERE IN THE TEMPLE, SIMON, 21:56 TOOK HIM UP IN HIS ARMS AND BLESSED HIM. 21:59 AND THEY SAID TO HIS MOTHER, 22:00 "BEHOLD, THIS CHILD IS DESTINED FOR THE FALL 22:02 AND THE RISING OF MANY IN ISRAEL, 22:05 AND FOR A SIGN THAT WILL BE SPOKEN AGAINST. 22:07 YES, A SWORD WILL EVEN PIERCE THROUGH YOUR OWN SOUL," 22:11 FORETELLING, OF COURSE, THE SUFFERINGS 22:12 THAT JESUS WOULD BE GOING THROUGH, 22:14 "THAT THE THOUGHTS OF MANY HEARTS MIGHT BE REVEALED." 22:17 SO EVEN AT THE VERY BEGINNING MARY WAS GIVEN A PROPHECY 22:21 TO LET HER KNOW THAT JESUS WAS COMING, NOT JUST AS A LION, 22:26 BUT HE WOULD FIRST HAVE TO COME AS A LAMB 22:28 AND SUFFER FOR THE SINS OF THE WORLD. 22:31 WELL, THEN, WHEN CHRIST WAS STILL A CHILD, 22:35 THEY'RE LIVING IN BETHLEHEM, 22:36 HEROD THE KING WANTED TO EXTERMINATE JESUS AS A BABY. 22:40 YOU KNOW THERE'S THREE TIMES IN THE BIBLE 22:42 WHEN THE DEVIL MADE AN EFFORT 22:44 TO TRY TO KEEP THE SAVIOR FROM COMING. 22:47 YOU CAN READ ABOUT THE DEVIL THOUGHT MAYBE 22:49 THAT A SAVIOR WAS COMING WHEN THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL 22:51 WERE IN EGYPT. 22:52 SO HE WANTED ALL THE BABY BOYS TO BE EXTERMINATED. 22:57 AND YET MOSES WAS MIRACULOUSLY SPARED, THE SAVIOR WAS SPARED. 23:02 AND THEN DURING THE TIME 23:03 OF QUEEN JEZEBEL'S DAUGHTER ATHALIAH, 23:06 SHE KILLED ALL OF THE SEED OF DAVID. 23:09 AGAIN, THE DEVIL TRYING TO KEEP 23:10 THE MESSIAH FROM COMING. 23:12 BUT, MIRACULOUSLY, JOASH WAS SPARED. 23:16 AND THEN, OF COURSE, 23:18 DURING THE TIME WHEN CHRIST WAS A BABY, 23:19 HEROD SENT HIS SOLDIERS TO BETHLEHEM 23:20 TO KILL ALL THE BABY BOYS, ONCE AGAIN, 23:22 TO TRY TO KEEP THE SAVIOR FROM COMING. 23:26 AND JOSEPH WAS WARNED IN A DREAM TO GO DOWN TO EGYPT 23:28 AND YOU READ IN THE NEW TESTAMENT 23:30 THAT AFTER HE RECEIVED THAT WARNING. 23:32 HE SAID, "HE AROSE AND HE TOOK THE YOUNG CHILD 23:34 AND HIS MOTHER BY NIGHT AND HE DEPARTED FOR EGYPT..." 23:37 NOTICE WHAT MATTHEW SAYS, "THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED 23:40 WHICH WAS SPOKEN BY THE LORD THROUGH THE PROPHET SAYING, 23:43 'OUT OF EGYPT I HAVE CALLED MY SON.'" 23:46 AND, HERE, HE'S QUOTING HOSEA. 23:48 AND SO, EVEN THE NEW TESTAMENT WRITERS, LIKE MATTHEW, 23:52 COULD OFTEN SEE HOW JESUS 23:54 WAS A FULFILLMENT OF ALL THESE PROPHECIES. 23:56 THEY ALL COMBINED AND CONCENTRATED 23:58 AND FOCUSED IN HIS LIFE. 24:01 YOU KNOW, I GET EXCITED WHEN I TALK ABOUT THIS 24:02 BECAUSE THERE'S JUST NO QUESTION 24:04 THAT JESUS IS WHO HE SAYS HE WAS. 24:07 ALL RIGHT, AND THEN YOU CAN SAY 24:08 AND HE CAME WHEN HE WAS A CHILD. 24:10 HE MOVED BACK THEN, AFTER EGYPT TO NAZARETH 24:13 AND HE WAS SUBJECT TO HIS PARENTS 24:15 "THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED 24:17 THAT WAS SPOKEN OF BY THE PROPHETS," 24:18 ANOTHER PROPHECY, "HE WILL BE CALLED A NAZARENE." 24:22 NOW THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT WHEN SAMSON'S PARENTS WERE TOLD 24:27 THAT THIS PROMISED CHILD WOULD BE A NAZARENE. 24:30 SEVERAL OF THE TYPES IN THE BIBLE, 24:31 LIKE SAMUEL AND SAMSON, HAD THE VOW OF A NAZARITE. 24:36 TYPICALLY, JESUS IS PAINTED WITH LONG HAIR. 24:39 AND YET, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A SCRIPTURE THAT SAYS 24:41 "IT'S A SHAME FOR A MAN TO HAVE LONG HAIR." 24:43 BUT THE NAZARITES WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO CUT THEIR HAIR. 24:45 AND SO SOME HAVE WONDERED, 24:47 "DID JESUS' PARENTS HAVE THE VOW OF A NAZARITE ON HIM 24:51 UP UNTIL HE WAS BAPTIZED?" 24:52 BECAUSE A PERSON COULD HAVE A NAZARITE VOW 24:54 FOR A VARYING LENGTH OF TIME. 24:57 IT WASN'T NECESSARILY A LIFELONG VOW. 24:59 NAZARITES COULD NOT EAT 25:01 OR DRINK ANYTHING FROM THE VINE. 25:03 JESUS OBVIOUSLY DRANK GRAPE JUICE. 25:05 AND SO, HE MAY HAVE JUST BEEN A NAZARITE 25:07 UP UNTIL HIS BAPTISM OR FOLLOWED THAT VOW. 25:10 WE'RE NOT SURE 25:11 BUT HE'S TYPICALLY PAINTED WITH LONG HAIR 25:13 AND THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS FOR THAT. 25:16 BUT THAT WAS FORETOLD. 25:17 "AND THEN HE WENT DOWN WITH HIS PARENTS 25:19 AND HE CAME TO NAZARETH, 25:20 AND HE WAS SUBJECT TO THEM." 25:23 YOU KNOW, THERE'S ALL THESE THEORIES THAT SAY, 25:24 YOU KNOW, THE REASON JESUS WAS SO BRILLIANT 25:27 IS BECAUSE, FROM THE TIME HE WAS BORN, 25:30 HIS PARENTS THEN TOOK HIM 25:31 AND HE STUDIED UNDER THESE WISE GURUS IN INDIA, 25:36 OR HE WENT TO EGYPT AND HE STUDIED THERE. 25:37 AND THEY'VE GOT ALL THESE THEORIES 25:39 ABOUT WHERE JESUS GOT HIS GREAT KNOWLEDGE 25:41 BECAUSE IT SAYS THAT HE WAS UNEDUCATED IN JERUSALEM. 25:44 IT TELLS US THAT HE LEARNED THE SCRIPTURES 25:47 RIGHT THERE FROM HIS PARENTS IN HOME. 25:49 HE DIDN'T GO OFF 25:50 AND WASN'T SECRETLY TAUGHT BY ANY, 25:53 YOU KNOW, KUNG FU EXPERTS OFF THERE SOMEWHERE. 25:55 AND THEN COME BACK 25:57 AND HAVE THIS GREAT ENLIGHTENMENT. 25:59 HE WENT TO HIS PARENTS. 26:00 HE LIVED A NORMAL LIFE FOR THE FIRST 30 YEARS 26:04 UNTIL HIS BAPTISM. 26:05 BUT THE MAIN REASON WE DO THESE SEMINARS 26:07 IS BECAUSE WE WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW 26:09 THAT THE BIBLE IS ALL ABOUT JESUS. 26:13 WHEN ABRAHAM WENT UP THE MOUNTAIN WITH ISAAC 26:15 AND GOD SAID, "ARE YOU WILLING TO GIVE ME YOUR SON?" 26:20 HE PUT THE WOOD ON ISAAC'S BACK. 26:23 THE CROSS WAS PLACED ON JESUS' BACK. 26:25 THE FATHER AND THE SON WENT TO THE MOUNTAIN TOP TOGETHER. 26:29 ISAAC WAS A WILLING SACRIFICE. 26:31 JESUS WAS A WILLING SACRIFICE. 26:34 ABRAHAM WAS WILLING TO GIVE HIS SON 26:37 AND THAT'S A TYPE OF GOD WHO DID GIVE HIS SON. 26:40 BUT WHEN YOU READ THE BIBLE, 26:42 YOU'RE READING IN THE STORY OF JOSEPH, 26:44 AND IN THE STORY OF DAVID, 26:45 AND THE STORY OF SAMUEL AND GIDEON. 26:48 IT'S ALL TELLING US ABOUT JESUS. 26:50 YOU'RE SEEING SHADOWS IN A TAPESTRY OF CHRIST 26:53 ALL THROUGH THIS BOOK 26:54 BECAUSE GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THEM AND KNOW HIM 26:57 AND HAVE A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS SON. 27:04 DON'T FORGET TO REQUEST TODAY'S LIFE CHANGING FREE RESOURCE. 27:08 NOT ONLY CAN YOU RECEIVE THIS FREE
