BE TALKING ON THIS TODAY, BUT I JUST GOT 07:12 SOME AMAZING MATERIAL. 07:14 I'M ALSO GONNA TALK ABOUT THE FISCAL CRISIS, NOT ONLY IN 07:17 AMERICA, BUT AROUND THE WORLD. 07:20 I GOT SO MUCH STUFF. 07:22 I'VE GOT A FOLDER HERE AND I HOPE TO GET THROUGH IT TODAY. 07:26 IF I DON'T, I'LL GET THROUGH IT NEXT WEEK, BUT I'VE GOT 07:28 A LOT OF STUFF HERE. 07:31 YOU ALL KNOW THE STORY OF THE TITANIC. 07:33 EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT THE TITANIC. 07:35 I GUESS MANY OF YOU FOLKS WHO ARE WATCHING ON TELEVISION, YOU 07:38 SAW THE MOVIE, "THE TITANIC." 07:42 THIS MIGHTY SHIP SAILED FROM SOUTH HAMPTON IN ENGLAND 07:46 IN 1912. 07:48 SHE HAD WATERTIGHT COMPARTMENTS. 07:51 IT IS SAID THAT THE CAPTAIN SAID, "GOD ALMIGHTY 07:55 COULDN'T SINK THIS SHIP." 07:59 THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE INCLINED TO SAY. 08:02 NOTHING COULD SINK THIS MIGHTY SHIP OF STATE. 08:07 WE GET SO PROUD. 08:10 THE CAPTAIN SAID, "NOTHING COULD SINK MY SHIP." 08:16 APRIL 15, 1912 SHE HIT THE ICEBERG. 08:22 AND AS THEY WERE SAILING ALONG, THERE WAS DANCING AND SINGING 08:28 AND LOTS OF DRINKING. 08:32 THEY'D BEEN ADVISED TO SLOW DOWN A LITTLE BIT, BUT THEY DECIDED 08:35 FULL STEAM AHEAD. 08:38 AND THEN THE WORDS OF THE LOOKOUT, "ICEBERG AHEAD." 08:45 AND THEY PULLED THE SHIP TO ONE SIDE, WHICH JUST CARVED IT UP 08:51 LIKE YOU'RE OPENING A CAN OF SARDINES. 08:56 NOW, I'M CALLING THIS SERMON TODAY, "ICEBERG AHEAD" 09:01 BUT IT'S--I REALLY GOT TWO ANALOGIES. 09:04 THAT'S THE FIRST ONE, THE TITANIC. 09:07 BUT NOW TO CHANGE THE ANALOGY, I WANT YOU TO COME TO THE BIBLE 09:10 TO THE WORDS OF OUR LORD. 09:12 MATTHEW 24:36-39. 09:18 WE'RE GLAD THAT THIS IS A BIBLE-READING, 09:20 BIBLE-CARRYING CHURCH. 09:24 WHAT DO YOU SAY? 09:25 YEAH, MATTHEW 24:36-39. 09:29 AND DON'T THINK THAT YOU KNOW IT BECAUSE THE ODDS 09:31 ARE THAT YOU DON'T. 09:33 "NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT THAT DAY OR HOUR, NOT EVEN THE ANGELS 09:36 IN HEAVEN, NOR THE SON, BUT ONLY THE FATHER. 09:40 AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, SO IT WILL BE AT THE COMING OF 09:45 THE SON OF MAN. 09:47 FOR IN THE DAYS BEFORE THE FLOOD, PEOPLE WERE EATING AND 09:50 DRINKING, MARRYING AND GIVING IN MARRIAGE, UP TO THE DAY NOAH 09:56 ENTERED THE ARK; AND THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN 10:00 UNTIL THE FLOOD CAME AND TOOK THEM ALL AWAY. 10:07 THIS IS HOW IT WILL BE AT THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN, 10:10 JESUS SAID. 10:11 TWO MEN WILL BE IN THE FIELD; ONE WILL BE TAKEN 10:15 AND THE OTHER LEFT. 10:16 TWO WOMEN WILL BE GRINDING WITH A HAND MILL; ONE WILL BE TAKEN 10:21 AND THE OTHER LEFT." 10:22 THEN JESUS SAID, "THEREFORE KEEP WATCH." 10:27 NOW YOU KNOW, AS WELL AS I DO, THAT BEFORE THE FLOOD, PEOPLE, 10:33 AS JESUS SAID, WERE EATING AND DRINKING, MARRYING, GIVING IN 10:39 MARRIAGE AND THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THOSE ACTIVITIES. 10:43 BUT FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHOM WE CALL THE ANTEDILUVIANS, IT WAS 10:48 BUSINESS AS USUAL AS IT IS TODAY IN AMERICA. 10:53 AND IT IS TODAY IN THE CHURCH. 10:58 JUST GONE AHEAD. 11:00 NOTHING HAS CHANGED. 11:02 PEOPLE BACK THERE WERE TOTALLY INDIFFERENT, CARELESS, ABSORBED 11:07 WITH EVERYDAY PURSUITS. 11:10 AND YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE TODAY PEOPLE HERE IN LOS ANGELES AND 11:14 AROUND THE WORLD ARE EATING AND DRINKING, MARRYING, GIVING IN 11:18 MARRIAGE, GETTING 50% OFF AT MACY'S AND THEN 11:22 AN ADDITIONAL 30%. 11:26 BOY, THAT'S THE BIG THING, ISN'T IT? 11:29 DRIVING ON THE FREEWAYS AND TEXTING. 11:34 AND THE BIBLE SAYS THE FLOOD TOOK THEM ALL AWAY. 11:37 IT'S GONNA TAKE HIM ALL AWAY, I'M AFRAID. 11:40 DRIVING ON THE FREEWAYS, TEXTING, DRINKING COFFEE 11:43 AND APPLYING MAKE-UP. 11:44 HAVE YOU EVER SEEN PEOPLE ACTUALLY PUTTING EYELASHES 11:48 AND STUFF ON? 11:50 CELEBRATING BIRTHDAYS, GAMBLING IN LAS VEGAS. 11:55 WE GOT PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH WHO GAMBLE IN LAS VEGAS. 11:58 WHAT'S WRONG WITH THEM? 12:00 GIVING GOD HIS 59 MINUTES PER WEEK IF WE CAN SPARE IT. 12:08 AND MOST OF IT--MOST OF US LIKE TO KEEP IT AT 59 MINUTES, THAT'S 12:12 WHY WE COME AT A 1/4 PAST 11. 12:18 AND THE FLOOD TOOK THEM ALL AWAY. 12:22 JESUS SAYS, "AS IT WAS." 12:25 DEBATING POLITICS, TAKING CRUISES. 12:30 NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. 12:31 WATCHING TELEVISION. 12:32 PLAYING THE INTERNET. 12:34 WHAT A CURSE IT'S BECOME TO SO MANY. 12:36 "DANCING WITH THE STARS," ET CETERA, ET CETERA, 12:40 ET CETERA. 12:40 THE GOD, THE INDIFFERENT, THE BAD. 12:43 DANCING ON THE DECK OF THE TITANIC AS SHE HEADS 12:47 FOR DISASTER. 12:49 THAT IS A PICTURE OF THE WORLD AND THE CHURCH IN THIS 12:59 TREMENDOUS HOUR. 13:01 WOULD YOU COME TO MATTHEW 24:32 AND ONWARDS? 13:06 MATTHEW 24. 13:08 PEOPLE SAY, "I'VE HEARD IT BEFORE." 13:09 MY FRIEND, ONE DAY YOU'RE GONNA HEAR IT FOR THE LAST TIME. 13:13 MATTHEW 24:32-35. 13:20 YOU READY? 13:22 JESUS SAID, "NOW LEARN THIS LESSON FROM THE FIG TREE: AS 13:25 SOON AS ITS TWIGS GET TENDER AND ITS LEAVES COME OUT, YOU KNOW 13:31 THAT SUMMER IS NEAR." 13:32 I WANT TO TELL YOU THE SUMMER IS COMING, THE SUMMER WHEN JESUS 13:36 RETURNS WHEN THERE'S GONNA BE GOOD. 13:39 "EVEN SO, WHEN YOU SEE ALL THESE THINGS, YOU KNOW THAT IT IS 13:43 NEAR, RIGHT AT THE DOORS. 13:46 I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, THIS GENERATION WILL CERTAINLY NOT 13:48 PASS AWAY UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED. 13:52 HEAVEN AND EARTH WILL PASS AWAY, BUT MY WORDS," JESUS SAID, 13:57 "WILL NEVER PASS AWAY." 13:58 AND IT'S TRUE. 14:01 JESUS SAID, THERE ARE GOING TO BE SIGNS THAT ARE GOING 14:04 TO HAPPEN IN THE WORLD. 14:06 AND THOSE SIGNS ARE GONNA BE LIKE THE LEAVES OF THE FIG TREE 14:12 BECAUSE WHEN THE LEAVES COME OUT, IT'S A SIGN THAT THE WINTER 14:17 IS PASSING AND SUMMER IS COMING, FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD. 14:26 ON ONE OCCASION, OUR BLESSED LORD WAS TALKING 14:30 TO THOSE RELIGIOUS HUMBUGS, THE PHARISEES. 14:35 WOULD YOU COME WITH ME TO MATTHEW 16:1-3. 14:39 MATTHEW 16:1-3, AND ALSO THE SADDUCEES. 14:46 "THE PHARISEES AND SADDUCEES CAME TO JESUS," THEY WERE THE 14:50 RELIGIOUS LEADERS, "AND TESTED HIM BY ASKING HIM TO SHOW THEM 14:55 A SIGN FROM HEAVEN. 14:56 HE REPLIED, 'WHEN EVENING COMES, YOU SAY, IT WILL BE FAIR 15:00 WEATHER, FOR THE SKY IS RED, AND IN THE MORNING, TODAY IT WILL BE 15:04 STORMY, FOR THE SKY IS RED AND OVERCAST.' 15:07 YOU KNOW HOW TO INTERPRET THE APPEARANCE OF THE 15:09 SKY, BUT YOU CANNOT INTERPRET THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES." 15:15 HAS ANYTHING CHANGED? 15:17 THESE WERE THE GREAT RELIGIOUS LEADERS. 15:23 THESE WERE THE GREAT THEOLOGIANS, AND THEY KNEW A LOT 15:28 OF STUFF, BUT JESUS CALLED THEM ON ANOTHER OCCASION, HE SAID, 15:33 "YOU ARE BLIND LEADERS OF THE BLIND." 15:38 AND YOU AND I NEED TO LEARN, NOT TO PUT OUR FAITH IN RELIGIOUS 15:42 LEADERS, BUT TO PUT OUR FAITH IN JESUS. 15:47 AND READ OUR BIBLES. 15:50 THE DEVIL STOLE A MARCH UPON CHRISTIANS WHEN THEY GOT INTO 15:54 THE INTERNET AND GOT AWAY FROM THE BIBLE. 15:57 THE RELIGIOUS LEADERS BACK THERE WERE BLIND, CLOSE-MINDED, 16:02 BIGOTED, POLITICAL, POWER-HUNGRY AND ALL TIED UP WITH POLITICS. 16:09 THAT'S WHY THEY COULD NOT DISCERN THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES. 16:14 THE FIRST SIGN I WANT TO PRESENT TO YOU TODAY, MY BELOVED FRIENDS 16:18 IS THIS, HERE IT IS, SUNDAY LAWS. 16:24 NOW MY FRIEND JIMMY RHODES OVER IN TENNESSEE, NO BETTER MAN, HE 16:29 AND PAM SENT ME SOME STUFF THAT'S COME FROM EUROPE ON 16:33 SUNDAY LAWS. 16:36 AND I'M GOING TO SHARE IT WITH YOU. 16:37 BUT FIRSTLY, COME OVER HERE TO REVELATION 14:9 AND ONWARDS, 16:42 DEAR HEARTS AND GENTLE PEOPLE. 16:44 REVELATION 14:9 AND ONWARDS. 16:49 "A THIRD ANGEL FOLLOWED THEM AND SAID IN A LOUD VOICE: 'IF ANYONE 16:54 WORSHIPS THE BEAST AND HIS IMAGE AND RECEIVES HIS MARK ON THE 16:57 FOREHEAD OR ON HIS HAND, HE, TOO, WILL DRINK OF THE WINE OF 17:01 GOD'S FURY, WHICH HAS BEEN POURED OUT FULL STRENGTH 17:04 INTO THE CUP OF HIS WRATH. 17:07 HE WILL BE TORMENTED WITH BURNING SULFUR IN THE PRESENCE 17:10 OF THE HOLY ANGELS AND OF THE LAMB. 17:12 AND THE SMOKE OF THEIR TORMENT RISES FOR EVER AND EVER. 17:16 THERE IS NO REST DAY OR NIGHT FOR THOSE WHO WORSHIP THE BEAST 17:19 AND HIS IMAGE, OR FOR ANYONE WHO RECEIVES THE MARK OF HIS NAME.' 17:24 THIS CALLS FOR PATIENT ENDURANCE ON THE PART OF THE SAINTS WHO 17:28 OBEY GOD'S COMMANDMENTS AND REMAIN FAITHFUL TO JESUS." 17:31 YOU FOLKS NEED TO KNOW SOMETHING, I'VE BEEN THROWN OFF 17:35 A TELEVISION NETWORK BECAUSE I PREACHED THAT MESSAGE. 17:43 AND I'LL LEAVE IT TO YOUR IMAGINATION. 17:46 AND WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE WORLD. 17:49 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A RELIGIOUS NETWORK THAT SAYS THEY'RE 17:52 PREACHING IT. 17:56 AND THAT'S WHY I THANK GOD FOR 3ABN THAT HAS THE COURAGE TO 18:01 PREACH THE THREE ANGELS MESSAGES AND IT'S NOT 18:04 POLITICALLY CORRECT. 18:08 NOW THE MARK OF THE BEAST, YOU CAN SEE FROM THAT TEXT, IS THE 18:11 GREAT COUNTERFEIT TO THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. 18:14 IF YOU DON'T KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, YOU'LL GET 18:17 THE MARK OF THE BEAST. 18:18 SO THE MARK OF THE BEAST IS THE OPPOSITE OF KEEPING THE 18:22 COMMANDMENTS OF GOD. 18:24 LOOK AT REVELATION 13:11 AND ONWARDS, "THEN I SAW ANOTHER 18:28 BEAST, COMING OUT OF THE EARTH. 18:30 HE HAD TWO HORNS LIKE A LAMB, HE SPOKE LIKE A DRAGON. 18:34 HE EXERCISED ALL THE AUTHORITY OF THE FIRST BEAST ON HIS 18:36 BEHALF, AND MADE THE EARTH AND ITS INHABITANTS WORSHIP THE 18:40 FIRST BEAST, WHOSE FATAL WOUND HAD BEEN HEALED. 18:43 AND HE PERFORMED GREAT AND MIRACULOUS SIGNS, EVEN CAUSING 18:46 FIRE TO COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO EARTH IN FULL VIEW OF MEN." 18:50 THIS IS THE GREAT COUNTERFEIT ELIJAH. 18:54 "BECAUSE OF THE SIGNS HE WAS GIVEN POWER TO DO ON BEHALF 18:57 OF THE FIRST BEAST, HE DECEIVED THE INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH. 19:01 HE ORDERED THEM TO SET UP AN IMAGE IN HONOR OF THE BEAST WHO 19:04 WAS WOUNDED BY THE SWORD AND YET LIVED. 19:07 HE WAS GIVEN POWER TO GIVE BREATH TO THE IMAGE OF THE FIRST 19:10 BEAST, THAT IT COULD SPEAK AND CAUSE ALL WHO REFUSED TO WORSHIP 19:14 THE IMAGE TO BE KILLED. 19:17 HE ALSO FORCED EVERYONE, SMALL AND GREAT, RICH AND POOR, FREE 19:21 AND SLAVE, TO RECEIVE A MARK ON HIS RIGHT HAND OR ON HIS 19:26 FOREHEAD, SO THAT NO ONE COULD BUY OR SELL UNLESS HE HAD 19:30 THE MARK, WHICH IS THE NAME OF THE BEAST OR THE NUMBER 19:36 OF HIS NAME." 19:41 WE ARE NOT TALKING LITERAL LANGUAGE. 19:43 THIS IS SYMBOLIC. 19:47 SOME PREACHERS HAVE GOT IT ALL WRONG. 19:50 THEY DRAW CARTOONS OF PEOPLE RUNNING AROUND AND THEY'VE 19:54 GOT 666 IN THEIR FOREHEAD. 19:57 IT'S NOT GONNA BE LIKE THAT AT ALL, FOLKS. 20:00 THE BEAST WE KNOW IS A GREAT CHURCH RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION. 20:07 IT IS A CHURCH JOINED TO THE STATE AND THAT IS 20:15 THE STORY OF THE DARK AGES, AND YOU KNOW THAT. 20:22 IT IS A CHURCH TURNING TO THE STATE ENFORCING RELIGIOUS LAWS. 20:32 AND THE IMAGE OF THE BEAST IS ANOTHER CHURCH ORGANIZATION 20:37 JOINED TO THE STATE ENFORCING RELIGIOUS LAWS. 20:42 HOW COULD PEOPLE IN THIS LAND OF AMERICA, THAT WAS FOUNDED ON THE 20:50 PRINCIPLE OF FREEDOM OF RELIGION AND THE SEPARATION OF CHURCH 20:55 AND STATE, HOW COULD THEY EVER WANT TO SET IT UP AGAIN? 21:00 BUT THE BIBLE SAYS IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. 21:06 IT'S GOING TO START AND SPREAD AROUND THE WORLD. 21:09 MAYBE IT'S GONNA START HERE. 21:11 MAYBE IT WILL START IN WASHINGTON, I DON'T KNOW. 21:14 BUT IT'S GOING TO SPREAD AROUND THE WORLD, AND THINGS ARE GOING 21:20 TO BECOME SO COMPLEX AND SO DESPERATE THAT THEY'RE GOING 21:24 TO SAY, "WE NEED TO GET BACK TO GOD, AND KEEP SUNDAY." 21:35 I'VE BEEN PREACHING THIS FOR ALMOST 50 YEARS. 21:41 SOME YEARS AGO, THE GREAT POPE JOHN PAUL SENT 21:46 OUT A SPECIAL LETTER ENTITLED "THE LORD'S DAY." 21:50 I PREACHED A SERMON ON IT. 21:52 HE SAID, "WE NEED TO GET BACK TO THE KEEPING OF THE SABBATH, 22:00 OUR SABBATH." 22:02 AND HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE SABBATH OF THE CHURCH, 22:06 NOT THE SABBATH OF THE BIBLE. 22:09 AND HIS LETTER, CIRCULATED AROUND THE WORLD, 22:13 IS BEARING FRUIT. 22:16 I'VE RECEIVED THIS INFORMATION. 22:18 I WANT TO SHARE IT WITH YOU. 22:23 THE 20TH DAY OF THE 6TH MONTH 2011 BRUSSELS. 22:30 "ON THE 20TH OF JUNE 2011, THE EUROPEAN SUNDAY ALLIANCE--" 22:36 YOU SEE THEIR LOGO? 22:38 EUROPEAN SUNDAY ALLIANCE. 22:44 "IT IS FORMED ON THE OCCASION OF AN EXPERT CONFERENCE ON SUNDAY 22:48 PROTECTION AT THE SEAT OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND 22:51 SOCIAL COMMITTEE IN BRUSSELS. 22:55 THE EUROPEAN SUNDAY ALLIANCE IS A NETWORK OF EXISTING NATIONAL 23:00 SUNDAY ALLIANCES, TRADE UNIONS, CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS AND 23:07 RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES WHICH PROMOTES FAIR AND BALANCED WORK 23:12 CONDITIONS AND THE HARMONY OF A BALANCED LIFESTYLE COMPRISING 23:17 WORK, FAMILY AND FREE TIME TO STRENGTHEN SOCIAL COHESION." 23:25 SO THEY'RE SAYING, SOCIETY IS IN SUCH A MESS WE NEED TO HAVE 23:31 A UNIVERSAL DAY THAT WE'RE GOING TO KEEP. 23:35 WHATEVER HAPPENED, MY FRIEND, TO THE SKEPTICS IN OUR CHURCH WHO 23:38 WOULD LAUGH AT WHEN WE WOULD SAY IT'S GONNA HAPPEN? 23:41 I'VE HAD THEM COME TO ME AND LAUGH AT ME. 23:45 I'VE HAD THEM COME TO ME AND SAY, "IT'LL NEVER, NEVER HAPPEN. 23:49 WE DON'T BELIEVE ANY OF THAT STUFF ANYMORE." 23:50 YOU DON'T, I DO. 23:54 AND IT'S HAPPENING. 23:55 LISTEN NOW. 23:58 "THE RETIRED ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOP OF LINZ AND FORMER 24:02 PROFESSOR BISHOP FOR SOCIAL QUESTIONS AT THE AUSTRIAN 24:05 BISHOPS CONFERENCE, MAXIMILIAN ALCHERN, 24:10 EXPRESSED HIS DELIGHT AT THE INCEPTION OF THE 24:15 EUROPEAN SUNDAY ALLIANCE AND MADE THE FOLLOWING 24:19 STATEMENT THROUGH THE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT OF THE 24:23 LINZ DIOCESE: 'A SUNDAY FREE OF WORK IS THE OLDEST SOCIAL LAW 24:31 OF THE CHRISTIAN-JEWISH CIVILIZATION ROOTED 24:35 IN THE OLD TESTAMENT COVENANT," 3RD OF THE 10TH 24:39 OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS. 24:41 NOW THE CHURCH OF ROME HAS GOT THE COMMANDMENTS A LITTLE 24:46 DIFFERENT TO HOW IT IS IN THE BIBLE. 24:50 IN THE BIBLE, YOU HAVE THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT, WHICH 24:52 IS THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT. 24:54 THEY SAY IT'S THE THIRD COMMANDMENT 24:56 BECAUSE THEY LEFT OUT THE SECOND COMMANDMENT. 24:58 YOU SAY, "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT." 24:59 WELL, GO LOOK AT A CATECHISM. 25:01 YOU'LL FIND THAT THE COMMANDMENT THAT FORBIDS THE MAKING 25:04 OF IDOLS IS MISSING IN THE PAPAL CATECHISM. 25:11 SO THEY SAY IT'S THE THIRD. 25:12 THIS ONE HERE. 25:15 HE SAYS, "SUNDAY FREE OF WORK IS THE OLDEST SOCIAL LAW 25:20 OF THE CHRISTIAN-JEWISH CIVILIZATION ROOTED IN 25:22 THE OLD TESTAMENT COVENANT, (3RD OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS.) 25:26 THE COMMON DAY OF REST, THE SOCIAL CONTACTS WHICH 25:29 GO WITH IT AND THE PRAISING OF THE LORD ARE THE MOST 25:34 IMPORTANT CHRISTIAN VALUES AND WHICH ARE INDISPENSABLE 25:38 FOR THE HUMAN DIGNITY. 25:41 THE FIGHT FOR A WORK FREE SUNDAY IN EUROPE OUGHT TO BE FOUGHT ON 25:45 NATIONAL, REGIONAL AND LOCAL LEVELS, SAYS HANNES KRELLER, 25:55 HUMAN RESOURCES EXPERT OF THE CATHOLIC EMPLOYEE FEDERATION 25:59 IN GERMANY. 26:01 ACCORDING TO THE KAB IT IS HOPED, WITH THE INCEPTION OF THE 26:05 EUROPEAN SUNDAY ALLIANCE TO BETTER COORDINATE THE ACTIVITIES 26:10 BETWEEN THE VARIOUS ALLIANCES AS WELL AS TO INCREASE THE PRESSURE 26:16 ON THE EUROPEAN UNION PARLIAMENT AND THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION." 26:21 WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT? 26:26 I WANT TO TELL YOU FOLKS, WHO THINK IT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL, 26:32 THAT IT'S JUST MARRYING AND GIVING IN MARRIAGE. 26:35 LET ME TELL YOU FOLKS SOMETHING, THE FLOOD IS COMING. 26:41 YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT. 26:44 SUNDAY LAWS ARE BECOMING A REALITY. 26:48 THE MARK IN THE FOREHEAD, YOU GET IT WITH THE MIND. 26:52 THE MARK IN THE HAND, YOU GET IT BY ABSTAINING FROM WORK. 26:57 THE SHIP IS APPROACHING THE ICEBERG. 27:01 OR IN THE WORDS OF JESUS, THE FLOOD IS COMING. 27:10 NOW THE DEVIL HAS GOT MOST OF US. 27:14 HE'S GOT MOST OF US BECAUSE WE DON'T READ OUR BIBLES ANYMORE. 27:18 YOU KNOW, THAT'S TRUE. 27:20 WE DON'T COME TO SABBATH SCHOOL ANYMORE TO STUDY 27:22 THE WORD OF GOD. 27:26 IT'S QUITE AN EVENT IF WE GET INTO CHURCH BY 11:15. 27:32 THE BIBLE SAYS EATING AND DRINKING, MARRYING 27:35 AND GIVING IN MARRIAGE. 27:38 AND THE FLOOD CAME AND TOOK THEM ALL AWAY. 27:40 THIS IS ONE OF THE LAST SIGNS IN THE HISTORY OF THE PLANET WHEN 27:47 CHURCH AND STATE JOIN TOGETHER AGAIN AND ENFORCED 27:51 RELIGIOUS LAWS. 27:53 AND THE QUESTION IS, ARE YOU AND I READY FOR THIS? 27:57 SIGN NUMBER TWO, ECONOMIC MELTDOWN. 28:00 WOULD YOU PLEASE COME TO LUKE 21:25-28? 28:03 LUKE 21:25-28. 28:08 PLEASE TURN TO THE WORDS OF OUR BLESSED LORD. 28:13 GLAD TO SEE YOU WITH BIBLES HERE TODAY. 28:16 I THANK GOD FOR YOU. 28:18 LUKE--I THANK GOD THERE'S A CHURCH WHERE PEOPLE 28:20 STILL READ THE BIBLE. 28:23 "THERE WILL BE SIGNS IN THE SUN, MOON AND STARS. 28:26 ON THE EARTH, NATIONS WILL BE IN ANGUISH AND PERPLEXITY AT THE 28:30 ROARING AND THE TOSSING OF THE SEA." 28:33 AND POSSIBLY WHEN IT'S TALKING ABOUT THE ROARING AND THE 28:35 TOSSING OF THE SEA, IT'S TALKING ABOUT THE ROARING AND THE 28:39 TOSSING OF THE NATIONS. 28:44 JESUS SAID, "MEN WILL FAINT FROM TERROR, APPREHENSIVE OF WHAT IS 28:49 COMING ON THE WORLD, FOR THE HEAVENLY BODIES WILL BE SHAKEN. 28:53 AT THAT TIME THEY WILL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN A CLOUD 28:55 WITH POWER AND GREAT GLORY. 28:58 WHEN THESE THINGS BEGIN TO TAKE PLACE, STAND UP AND LIFT UP YOUR 29:01 HEADS, BECAUSE YOUR REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR." 29:06 THE BIBLE SAYS THERE IS GOING TO COME A TIME OF TROUBLE 29:10 SUCH AS NEVER WAS. 29:15 AND THINGS ARE GOING TO GET SO BAD IN THE WORLD THAT THE CHURCH 29:22 WILL JOIN TO THE STATE AND THERE WILL BE RELIGIOUS LAWS TO SAVE 29:29 AMERICA, AND TO SAVE THE WORLD FROM DISASTER. 29:37 I HAVE SO MUCH STUFF HERE TODAY. 29:40 DID YOU SEE THIS ONE, "USA TODAY?" 29:43 WE THINK THE DEFICIT IS $14 TRILLION OR $15 TRILLION. 29:49 WHAT'S ANOTHER TRILLION? 29:51 BUT THE ACTUAL INDEBTEDNESS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 29:55 THAT'S NOBODY'S GOING TO TELL YOU, EXCEPT POSSIBLY THIS 29:57 MAGAZINE AND THIS PREACHER, IS $62 TRILLION, $62. 30:07 NOW, I'M GONNA GO TO THE BLACKBOARD AND I'M GONNA SEE 30:11 IF I CAN PUT UP THIS FIGURE. 30:13 I JUST MAY GET IT MIXED UP BECAUSE IT'S PRETTY MUCH 30:19 INCOMPREHENSIBLE. 30:20 SIXTY-TWO. 30:24 SIXTY-TWO. 30:26 WELL, THAT'S A BILLION. 30:28 THAT'S A MILLION. 30:30

EMILY 31:34 BUT IT'S THE FRENCH OR EMILY I THINK, BUT YOU KNOW. 31:38 AMELIE ROSE. 31:40 IF YOU TAKE THE POPULATION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 31:44 WHICH IS AROUND 300 MILLION, AND YOU TAKE THIS SUM OF THIS BIG 31:50 FIGURE HERE, THE 62 TRILLION, LITTLE AMELIE ROSE NOW OWES 31:58 THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THIS SUM OF MONEY. 32:05 THAT'S WHAT SHE OWES. 32:10 THAT'S WHAT YOU OWE TOO. 32:12 YOU FIVE FOLKS SITTING DOWN THE FRONT THERE, YOU OWE 32:15 THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT A MILLION DOLLARS. 32:20 YOU OWE IT TO THEM 'CAUSE THEY'VE GOT YOU IN THAT DEBT. 32:24 PEOPLE SAY, "YOU KNOW,

THOSE PRESIDENTS GOING 33:18 UP AND THEN WE HAD SOME BIG WARS. 33:22 AND THEN IT'S STILL GOING UP AND UP AND UP. 33:26 AND THE FLOOD CAME AND TOOK THEM ALL AWAY. 33:29 THE BIBLE TELLS US THAT TOWARDS THE END OF THE WORLD, 33:32 THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS GOING TO LEAVE THE EARTH. 33:36 I BELIEVE WE'RE SEEING, TODAY, THE SPIRIT OF GOD 33:40 LEAVING THE EARTH. 33:43 WHAT SHALL WE DO? 33:43 LOOK AT THIS HERE. 33:45 NUMBER ONE, GET OUT OF DEBT. 33:48 DON'T BE A SLAVE TO THE WALL STREET TYRANTS. 33:52 GET OUT OF DEBT. 33:53 NUMBER TWO, LIVE ACCORDING TO YOUR MEANS. 33:56 IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT, DON'T

COMMANDOS TO TAKE CHARGE 34:13 OF THE NATION WHEN THERE ARE GREAT DISASTERS? 34:17 DID YOU KNOW THAT? 34:18 IT CAME OUT THIS WEEK. 34:21 NEW COMMANDOS BECAUSE THEY SAY, HOW ARE WE GONNA DEAL WITH

50:47 THEY LAUGH. 50:50 THEY LAUGH. 50:51 BUT HE MAKES AN IMPASSIONED PLEA, DOES NOAH, 50:54 FROM THE HOLY PROPHETS. 50:59 AND JOHN GOES FORWARD IN THE ALTAR CALL WITH A FEW LITTLE 51:01 CHILDREN, NOBODY ELSE. 51:07 BIG CROWDS IN AMERICA NO LONGER GO TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD. 51:12 THEY GO TO FOOTBALL AND EVERYTHING ELSE, BUT HUGE CROWDS 51:15 DON'T GO TO HEAR THE WORD OF GOD. 51:17 AND IF YOU GOT HUGE CROWDS, IT'S BECAUSE THE WORD OF GOD 51:19 IS NOT BEING PREACHED. 51:20 REMEMBER THAT. 51:23 SO HE GOES HOME AFTER GOING FORTH AND HE TELLS HIS WIFE, 51:27 MARY, "MARY, I'VE HEARD A MESSAGE. 51:28 I'VE HEARD A--" YOU KNOW WHAT SHE DOES? 51:33 TALK TO YOUR LOVED ONES ABOUT THIS MESSAGE. 51:34 IF THEY'VE NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE THEY'LL THINK YOU'RE MAD. 51:38 SHE GIVES HIM A HARD TIME. 51:39 "ARE YOU GONNA LEAVE ME? 51:41 YOU PROMISED NEVER TO DO THESE THINGS." 51:44 HE SAID, "IT'S BURNING INSIDE ME." 51:47 SO SHE SENDS HIM OFF TO THE SCIENTIST AND THE PHILOSOPHER 51:53 AND THE PSYCHOLOGIST AND THE OLD PREACHER WHO ADJUSTS HIS 51:57 BIFOCALS AND SAYS, "JOHN, GOD LOVES EVERYBODY. 52:01 NO ONE IS GOING TO PERISH. 52:03 NOAH IS AN ALARMIST. 52:06 DON'T BELIEVE THIS ALARMISM. 52:08 JUST GO BACK, JOHN. 52:10 FORGET ABOUT IT. 52:12 GOD LOVES YOU." 52:16 SO JOHN DOESN'T GO BACK. 52:19 THE TIME GOES BY. 52:21 ONE DAY HE'S GOING HOME FROM WORK AND HE LOOKS UP THE HILL 52:28 AND THERE'S ANIMALS THERE. 52:33 HE RUNS HOME. 52:34 "MARY, MARY, IT'S THE SIGN, THE ANIMALS." 52:38 SHE GETS SCARED NOW. 52:39 SHE SAYS, "COME, COME, LET'S GO." 52:43 RUSH OUT AND PUT THE CHILDREN IN THE BUGGY THEY WHIP UP THE HORSE 52:46 AND UP THE HILL THEY GO. 52:49 THERE'S A GREAT CROWD OF PEOPLE THERE. 52:51 NOAH SEES JOHN, HE SAYS, "JOHN, I'M GLAD YOU CAME. 52:54 I'VE BEEN PRAYING FOR YOU. 52:55 I'VE BEEN WORRIED ABOUT YOU." 52:57 JOHN SAYS, "WE'RE HERE." 52:59 HE SAYS, "COME IN, THE DOOR'S ABOUT TO CLOSE." 53:04 BUT MARY'S RELATIVES ARE THERE. 53:06 THEY SAY, "DON'T BE MIXED UP WITH THAT CRAZY BOAT CHURCH. 53:11 DON'T DO IT. 53:12 YOU'LL MAKE A FOOL OF YOURSELF." 53:14 HE SAYS, "MARY, COME, COME." 53:17 HE TAKES HER ARM AND SHE PULLS BACK AND SHE SAYS, 53:19 "DON'T LEAVE ME. 53:20 DON'T LEAVE ME." 53:24 SO HE STEPS BACK AND THERE'S A BLINDING FLASH AND AN ANGEL 53:29 COMES DOWN FROM GLORY AND CLOSES THE DOOR. 53:33 AND A WAIL GOES UP, BUT NOT FOR LONG BECAUSE THE DAYS GO BY, 53:43 BUT NOTHING HAPPENS. 53:45 THEY'RE BACK TO DANCING AGAIN AND DRINKING AND CAROUSING 53:48 AND WATCHING FILTHY MOVIES ON TELEVISION AND SURFING THE 53:53 INTERNET, DOING ALL THAT STUFF. 53:59 MARY SAYS, "AREN'T YOU GLAD I SAVED YOU FROM MAKING 54:02 A FOOL OF YOURSELF?" 54:04 HE SAYS, "YOU'RE ALWAYS RIGHT." 54:09 THE DAYS GO BY. 54:11 IT'S THE SEVENTH DAY. 54:14 ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE HEAVENS SPLIT IN TWO. 54:18 THERE'S A ROAR FROM THE HEAVENS AND THE RAIN COMES DOWN. 54:24 AND THEY RUSH UP THE HILL AGAIN WITH THE CHILDREN. 54:28 AND JOHN CRIES OUT, "NOAH, LET ME IN. 54:31 MARY WILL COME IN NOW." 54:34 THERE'S A VAST CROWD OF PEOPLE THERE, BIGGEST CROWD THE BOAT 54:38 CHURCH HAS EVER SEEN. 54:40 THEY'RE BANGING ON THE DOOR TRYING TO GET IN. 54:45 BUT THE LORD SHUT HIM IN. 54:49 AND THE WATER STARTS TO RISE. 54:53 AND JOHN AND MARY CLIMB THE TALLEST MOUNTAIN HAND 54:56 IN HAND WITH THE CHILDREN. 54:58 THEY TIE THE CHILDREN TO THE NECKS OF GREAT BEASTS HOPING 55:02 THEY'LL SURVIVE THE DELUGE. 55:05 AND JOHN AND MARY GO ON TOGETHER HAND IN HAND UNTIL A NEW GEEZER 55:11 IS BORN AND IT BIRTHS OUT OF THE BOWELS OF THE EARTH AND MARY 55:16 IS HURLED INTO THE BLACKNESS. 55:22 AND JOHN GOES ON ALONE, CLIMBS THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN, 55:26 THE HIGHEST TREE AND HANGS ON AND PRAYS. 55:36 BUT NO ONE LISTENS. 55:40 THEN THE WIND INCREASES IN INTENSITY AND THE WAVES BECOME 55:43 MORE FEROCIOUS AND THEY EAT AT THE ROOTS OF THE TREE AND SOON 55:47 THE TREE ITSELF IS LIFTED UP AND HURLED INTO THE ABYSS. 55:53 AND THE LAST THING THAT IS SEEN IS A HAND. 55:59 AND THE LAST THAT IS HEARD IS "HELP." 56:06 BUT THERE'S NO HELP. 56:10 IT'S THE LAST NIGHT ON EARTH. 56:15 JESUS SAID, "AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, SO SHALL IT BE IN 56:21 THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN." 56:24 AND TO CHANGE THE ANALOGY, WE'RE ALL ON THE DECK OF THE TITANIC 56:33 AND THE MESSAGE IS ICEBERG AHEAD. 56:44 JESUS SAID, "BE YE ALSO READY. 56:54 HE WHO HAS EARS TO HEAR, LET HIM HEAR." 57:00 [MUSIC] 57:01 ♪ AWESOME IN POWER, OUR GOD. ♪ ♪ OUR GOD. ♪ 57:14 ♪ AND IF OUR GOD IS FOR US, ♪ ♪ THEN WHO COULD EVER STOP US?
