MALE ANNOUNCER: THISPRESENTATION IS BROUGHT TO YOU
00:00:03.153 --> 00:00:04.687
BY THE FRIENDSOF THE AMAZING FACTS MINISTRY.
00:00:04.721 --> 00:00:07.490
DOUG BATCHELOR: EACH BRANCHOF THE US ARMED SERVICES
00:00:11.194 --> 00:00:13.763
HAS ONE OR MORE ELITE TEAMSOF COMMANDOS.
00:00:13.797 --> 00:00:17.434
THEY FIGHT USING SOPHISTICATEDGUERRILLA WARFARE TACTICS.
00:00:17.467 --> 00:00:21.838
TO SERVEIN ONE OF THESE SELECT UNITS,
00:00:21.871 --> 00:00:23.873
A SOLDIER MUST BEHIGHLY DISCIPLINED,
00:00:23.907 --> 00:00:26.443
AND THEY PASS THROUGHINCREDIBLY DIFFICULT PHYSICAL
00:00:26.476 --> 00:00:29.345
AND MENTAL TRAINING.
00:00:29.379 --> 00:00:31.481
EVEN A SMALL TEAMOF THESE COMMANDOS,
00:00:31.514 --> 00:00:33.783
BECAUSEOF THEIR INTENSE TRAINING,
00:00:33.817 --> 00:00:35.418
CAN ACHIEVE GREAT VICTORIESIN A SHORT TIME.
00:00:35.452 --> 00:00:38.621
DURING THE GULF WAR,A TEAM OF US NAVY SEALS
00:00:38.655 --> 00:00:42.559
CREATED A CONVINCING DIVERSION
00:00:42.592 --> 00:00:44.561
BY STORMINGTHE BEACHES OF KUWAIT.
00:00:44.594 --> 00:00:46.996
AND THEY CREATED SUCH HAVOCTHAT THE IRAQI GENERALS
00:00:47.030 --> 00:00:50.033
WERE COMPLETELY FOOLEDINTO THINKING THE US-LED ATTACK
00:00:50.066 --> 00:00:53.269
WAS COMING FROM THE SEA.
00:00:53.303 --> 00:00:55.805
WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS,THE WHOLE WAR WAS OVER.
00:00:55.839 --> 00:00:58.875
AND IT ALL STARTEDWITH LESS THAN 20 SOLDIERS.
00:00:58.908 --> 00:01:02.278
THE BOOK OF REVELATIONTELLS ABOUT
00:01:02.312 --> 00:01:04.347
ANOTHER SPECIAL FORCES UNIT,
00:01:04.380 --> 00:01:06.716
AN ARMY OF 144.000THAT HAVE THE GREATEST MISSION
00:01:06.749 --> 00:01:10.753
IN THE LAST DAYS, TO PREPARETHE WORLD FOR JESUS' RETURN.
00:01:10.787 --> 00:01:15.458
LET'S EXPLORE TOGETHERWHAT THE BIBLE FACTS ARE,
00:01:15.492 --> 00:01:17.894
ABOUT THE 144.000,AND LEARN HOW YOU CAN RECEIVE
00:01:17.927 --> 00:01:21.898
THE SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD.
00:01:21.931 --> 00:01:23.700
DOUG: TONIGHT, OUR PRESENTATIONIS GOING TO BE DEALING
00:01:27.937 --> 00:01:30.140
WITH THE SUBJECTOF THE 144.000,
00:01:30.173 --> 00:01:33.042
WHICH YOU FIND IN CHAPTER 7
00:01:33.076 --> 00:01:35.512
AND 14 OF REVELATION,AND THE SEAL OF GOD.
00:01:35.545 --> 00:01:40.383
AND IT PICTURES A TIMEWHEN ANGELS ARE HOLDING
00:01:40.416 --> 00:01:44.888
BACK WINDS OF STRIFE.
00:01:44.921 --> 00:01:47.056
AND I REMEMBERHEARING A STORY ABOUT...
00:01:47.090 --> 00:01:49.826
I THINK IT WAS IN 2012,IN MARCH,
00:01:49.859 --> 00:01:53.563
PAUL WALDEN HAD HIS WIFEAND DAUGHTER CALL.
00:01:53.596 --> 00:01:56.299
THEY WERE AT WORKAND THEY SAID,
00:01:56.332 --> 00:01:57.734
"HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEWS?
00:01:57.767 --> 00:01:59.102
THERE'S A TERRIBLESTREAM OF TORNADOES
00:01:59.135 --> 00:02:01.604
THAT ARE COMING THROUGH."
00:02:01.638 --> 00:02:02.972
AND HE NEVER PAID MUCHATTENTION TO STORM WARNINGS,
00:02:03.006 --> 00:02:05.642
BUT HE THOUGHT HE OUGHTTO STEP OUTSIDE
00:02:05.675 --> 00:02:06.976
AND LOOK AT THE SKY.
00:02:07.010 --> 00:02:08.311
AND, RIGHT WHEN HE WENT OUTTO LOOK UP AT THE SKY,
00:02:08.344 --> 00:02:10.947
HE SAW THIS GREAT BIG GRAY WALLTHAT WAS MOVING TOWARDS HIM,
00:02:10.980 --> 00:02:14.651
THAT WAS CHURNING UPHIS NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE.
00:02:14.684 --> 00:02:17.620
HE THOUGHT,"OH, THIS IS THE REAL THING."
00:02:17.654 --> 00:02:20.056
HE RAN INSIDE,HE GRABBED A COUPLE OF DOGS,
00:02:20.089 --> 00:02:22.125
AND HE JUMPED IN THE CLOSETRIGHT BY THEIR STAIRCASE.
00:02:22.158 --> 00:02:25.662
AND THEN IT HIT.
00:02:25.695 --> 00:02:27.263
YOU'VE HEARD THE EXPRESSION"IT SOUNDS LIKE A FREIGHT TRAIN
00:02:27.297 --> 00:02:29.766
IS GOING BY WHEN YOUHAVE A TORNADO GO BY"?
00:02:29.799 --> 00:02:33.736
AND THE WHOLE HOUSEBEGAN TO SHAKE
00:02:33.770 --> 00:02:35.605
AND HE HAD BOTH HANDSON THE DOOR,
00:02:35.638 --> 00:02:38.775
WITH ALL OF HIS STRENGTHHE WAS HANGING ON
00:02:38.808 --> 00:02:41.010
AND TRYINGTO KEEP THE DOOR SHUT
00:02:41.044 --> 00:02:42.712
AS THE SUCTION OF THE STORM
00:02:42.745 --> 00:02:44.147
WAS TRYINGTO PULL THE DOOR OPEN
00:02:44.180 --> 00:02:46.449
AND SUCK OUT HIMAND HIS DOGS.
00:02:46.482 --> 00:02:48.851
AND IT WASN'T VERY LONGBEFORE IT STOPPED,
00:02:48.885 --> 00:02:51.254
THE NOISE SETTLED,IT MOVED DOWN AND PASSED AWAY,
00:02:51.287 --> 00:02:54.290
AND HE FINALLY GOTTHE COURAGE TO OPEN THE DOOR,
00:02:54.324 --> 00:02:55.992
AND THIS IS A PICTUREOF WHAT HE SAW
00:02:56.025 --> 00:02:57.961
WHEN HE STEPPED OUTSIDE.
00:02:57.994 --> 00:02:59.629
THE HOUSE WAS GONE,HE WALKED OUT OF THE CLOSET
00:02:59.662 --> 00:03:02.131
AND HE SAW BLUE SKY,EVERYTHING WAS GONE
00:03:02.165 --> 00:03:05.068
EXCEPT THE CLOSETAND SOME OF THE STAIRS.
00:03:05.101 --> 00:03:08.404
AND HE SAID IT WASN'T LONGAFTER HE WALKED OUTSIDE
00:03:08.438 --> 00:03:10.707
AND THE CLOSET FELL OVERAND THEN HAIL BEGAN TO FALL
00:03:10.740 --> 00:03:13.710
AND HE FELT LIKEHE WAS GETTING BEATEN UP
00:03:13.743 --> 00:03:15.345
BY A BASEBALL BAT.
00:03:15.378 --> 00:03:17.981
AND HE FOUND A CONTAINERTHAT HELD VACUUM CLEANING
00:03:18.014 --> 00:03:20.717
SUPPLIES HE PUT ITON HIS HEAD, HE SAID,
00:03:20.750 --> 00:03:22.318
OR HE WOULD HAVE DIEDFROM THE HAIL.
00:03:22.352 --> 00:03:25.455
AND HIS WIFE ALWAYS TEASES HIMABOUT WALKING AROUND
00:03:25.488 --> 00:03:28.024
WITH A VACUUM CLEANERACCESSORY BOX
00:03:28.057 --> 00:03:30.660
ON HIS HEAD TO SAVE HIS LIFE.
00:03:30.693 --> 00:03:33.062
BUT HE WAS TRYINGTO HOLD BACK THE STORM.
00:03:33.096 --> 00:03:38.468
WELL, HUMANS AREN'T VERY GOODAT THAT, ANGELS DO A GOOD JOB.
00:03:38.501 --> 00:03:41.838
REVELATION PICTURESTHIS HAPPENING.
00:03:41.871 --> 00:03:44.274
LET'S START WITH THE 144.000IN CHAPTER 7 OF REVELATION
00:03:44.307 --> 00:03:48.478
AND YOU CAN BEGIN WITH VERSE 1,CHAPTER 7, VERSE 1,
00:03:48.511 --> 00:03:51.581
"AFTER THESE THINGS,I SAW FOUR ANGELS STANDING
00:03:52.282 --> 00:03:56.486
AT THE FOUR CORNERSOF THE EARTH..."
00:03:56.519 --> 00:03:57.887
NOW WHAT DOTHE FOUR ANGELS REPRESENT?
00:03:57.920 --> 00:03:59.856
THE DIVISIONS OF THE COMPASS.
00:03:59.889 --> 00:04:01.457
IT'S TALKING ABOUT SIMPLYNORTH, SOUTH, EAST, AND WEST,
00:04:01.491 --> 00:04:04.193
IT'S A UNIVERSAL PROBLEM.
00:04:04.227 --> 00:04:06.229
IT'S A UNIVERSAL SEALINGTHAT'S GOING TO TAKE PLACE.
00:04:06.262 --> 00:04:10.700
"HOLDING THE FOUR WINDSOF THE EARTH,
00:04:10.733 --> 00:04:12.902
THAT THE WIND SHOULD NOT BLOWON THE EARTH, OR THE SEA,
00:04:12.935 --> 00:04:16.372
OR ANY TREE."
00:04:16.406 --> 00:04:17.807
THAT'S TALKING ABOUT EVERYTHINGON THE PLANET, THE EARTH,
00:04:17.840 --> 00:04:20.610
THE SEA, THE TREESUNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS,
00:04:20.643 --> 00:04:22.912
IT'S GOING TO BLOW EVENTUALLY.
00:04:22.945 --> 00:04:24.781
THOSE WINDS OF STRIFEARE REALLY...
00:04:24.814 --> 00:04:26.949
THEY'RE KIND OF SUMMARIZEDIN THE SEVEN LAST PLAGUES.
00:04:26.983 --> 00:04:30.987
"THEN I SAW ANOTHER ANGELASCENDING FROM THE EAST,
00:04:31.020 --> 00:04:33.990
HAVING THE SEALOF THE LIVING GOD.
00:04:34.023 --> 00:04:37.093
AND HE CRIEDWITH A LOUD VOICE...
00:04:37.126 --> 00:04:38.695
SAYING, 'DO NOT HARMTHE EARTH, OR THE SEA,
00:04:38.728 --> 00:04:41.931
OR THE TREESTILL WE HAVE SEALED
00:04:41.964 --> 00:04:44.634
THE SERVANTS OF OUR GODON THEIR FOREHEADS.'"
00:04:44.667 --> 00:04:48.538
AND IT GOES ON TO SAY,"I HEARD THE NUMBER OF THOSE
00:04:48.571 --> 00:04:50.807
THAT WERE SEALEDAND IT WAS 144.000,
00:04:50.840 --> 00:04:54.844
12.000 FROM EACHOF THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL."
00:04:54.877 --> 00:04:58.781
AND IT'S AN INTERESTING LISTTHAT IS GIVEN.
00:04:58.815 --> 00:05:00.983
THEN YOU'LL ALSO READIN CHAPTER 14 OF REVELATION,
00:05:01.017 --> 00:05:04.087
YOU FIND THE SECOND REFERENCETO THE 144.000,
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:07.957
AND IT GIVES US A LITTLEMORE INFORMATION ABOUT THEM.
00:05:07.990 --> 00:05:11.060
"I LOOKED, AND BEHOLD, A LAMB,"
00:05:11.094 --> 00:05:13.096
THIS IS VERSE 1OF CHAPTER 14 REVELATION,
00:05:13.129 --> 00:05:15.832
"A LAMB STANDINGON MOUNT ZION,
00:05:15.865 --> 00:05:18.267
AND WITH HIM 144.000HAVING HIS FATHER'S NAME
00:05:18.301 --> 00:05:22.305
WRITTEN ON THEIR FOREHEADS."
00:05:22.338 --> 00:05:23.639
WELL, 7 SAIDIT WAS THE SEAL OF GOD,
00:05:23.673 --> 00:05:25.508
HERE IT SAYS HIS FATHER'S NAME.THEY MUST BE SIMILAR.
00:05:25.541 --> 00:05:28.745
"AND I HEARD A VOICEFROM HEAVEN,
00:05:28.778 --> 00:05:30.313
LIKE THE VOICE OF MANY WATERS,
00:05:30.346 --> 00:05:31.848
AND LIKE THE VOICEOF LOUD THUNDER.
00:05:31.881 --> 00:05:33.983
AND I HEARD THE SOUND OF HARPS
00:05:34.016 --> 00:05:35.418
AND HARPISTSPLAYING THEIR HARPS.
00:05:35.451 --> 00:05:37.653
AND THEY SANG AS IT WEREA NEW SONG BEFORE THE THRONE,
00:05:37.687 --> 00:05:41.057
BEFORE THE FOURLIVING CREATURES,
00:05:41.090 --> 00:05:42.392
AND BEFORE THE ELDERS,AND NO ONE COULD LEARN
00:05:42.425 --> 00:05:44.794
THAT SONG EXCEPT THE 144.000
00:05:44.827 --> 00:05:47.663
WHO WERE REDEEMEDFROM THE EARTH.
00:05:47.697 --> 00:05:49.932
THESE ARE THE ONES
00:05:49.966 --> 00:05:51.267
WHO WERE NOT DEFILEDWITH WOMEN,
00:05:51.300 --> 00:05:53.236
FOR THEY ARE VIRGINS."
00:05:53.269 --> 00:05:54.570
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
00:05:54.604 --> 00:05:56.239
"THESE ARE THE ONES WHO FOLLOWTHE LAMB WHEREVER HE GOES.
00:05:56.272 --> 00:05:59.609
THEY WERE REDEEMEDFROM AMONG MEN
00:05:59.642 --> 00:06:01.477
BEING THE FIRSTFRUITS TO GODAND TO THE LAMB.
00:06:01.511 --> 00:06:04.814
AND IN THEIR MOUTH WAS FOUNDNO DECEIT FOR THEY ARE
00:06:04.847 --> 00:06:07.884
WITHOUT FAULTBEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD."
00:06:07.917 --> 00:06:10.820
AND THEN IT GOES ONTO ANOTHER PASSAGE
00:06:10.853 --> 00:06:12.989
THAT IS RELATED,BUT WE'LL PAUSE RIGHT THERE.
00:06:13.022 --> 00:06:15.425
SO YOU'VE GOT THE 144.000ARE OBVIOUSLY
00:06:15.458 --> 00:06:17.460
A VERY IMPORTANT GROUP.
00:06:17.493 --> 00:06:18.828
YOU'VE GOT CHAPTER 7ADDRESSES THEM,
00:06:18.861 --> 00:06:21.097
CHAPTER 14 ADDRESSES THEM.
00:06:21.130 --> 00:06:22.465
THEY'RE VERY CLOSE TO THE LORD.
00:06:22.498 --> 00:06:24.000
THEY RECEIVE A SPECIAL SEAL.
00:06:24.033 --> 00:06:25.701
NOW, TYPICALLY, IF YOU TALKTO SOMEBODY ABOUT REVELATION
00:06:25.735 --> 00:06:29.071
AND SOMETHING IN THE FOREHEAD,WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT?
00:06:29.105 --> 00:06:32.909
EVERYBODY AUTOMATICALLYTHINKS ABOUT,
00:06:32.942 --> 00:06:35.445
"OH, YOU DON'T WANT ANYTHINGIN YOUR FOREHEAD
00:06:35.478 --> 00:06:36.813
IN THE LAST DAYS."
00:06:36.846 --> 00:06:38.147
SOMEONE TRIES TO PUTANYTHING IN YOUR FOREHEAD,
00:06:38.181 --> 00:06:39.515
RUN THE OTHER WAY.
00:06:39.549 --> 00:06:41.517
BUT IF YOU STUDY THE BIBLE,YOU'LL FIND OUT, IN REVELATION,
00:06:41.551 --> 00:06:45.188
EVERYBODY'S GOT SOMETHINGIN THEIR FOREHEADS
00:06:45.221 --> 00:06:47.390
IN THE LAST DAYS.
00:06:47.423 --> 00:06:48.991
YOU'VE EITHER GOTTHE MARK OF THE BEAST
00:06:49.025 --> 00:06:50.660
OR YOU HAVE THE SEAL OF GOD.
00:06:50.693 --> 00:06:52.595
YOU JUST WANT TO MAKE SUREYOU'VE GOT THE RIGHT MARK.
00:06:52.628 --> 00:06:54.597
AMEN.
00:06:54.630 --> 00:06:55.932
AND, SORT OF,WITH THAT AS AN INTRODUCTION,
00:06:55.965 --> 00:06:57.433
LET'S GO THROUGHSOME OF OUR QUESTIONS NOW
00:06:57.467 --> 00:07:00.002
THAT TALK ABOUT THE 144.000AND THE SEAL OF GOD.
00:07:00.036 --> 00:07:04.006
FIRST QUESTION, WHAT CLUESDOES REVELATION PROVIDE
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:07.743
TO HELP US IDENTIFYWHO ARE THE 144.000?
00:07:07.777 --> 00:07:12.982
WELL, THERE'S SEVERAL THINGS,FIRST OF ALL,
00:07:13.015 --> 00:07:14.917
IT SAYS THERE'S 12.000FROM THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL.
00:07:14.951 --> 00:07:19.188
NOW THE LIST OF TRIBESTHAT ARE GIVEN IN REVELATION
00:07:19.222 --> 00:07:22.458
IS DIFFERENT FROMANY OTHER LIST IN THE BIBLE.
00:07:22.492 --> 00:07:25.928
THE TWELVE TRIBES ARE LISTEDMANY TIMES IN THE BIBLE.
00:07:25.962 --> 00:07:29.098
THEY USUALLY STARTWITH THE FIRSTBORN
00:07:29.131 --> 00:07:30.433
WHO WAS JUDAH...
00:07:30.466 --> 00:07:31.767
I'M SORRY, REUBEN.
00:07:31.801 --> 00:07:33.102
BUT, IN REVELATION,IT STARTS WITH JUDAH.
00:07:33.135 --> 00:07:35.771
IT'S DIFFERENT.IT'S A DIFFERENT LIST.
00:07:35.805 --> 00:07:38.040
YOU'LL FIND THATIT TALKS ABOUT JOSEPH,
00:07:38.074 --> 00:07:43.246
BUT EPHRAIM IS LEFT OUT.
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:45.915
AND SO IT'S A UNIQUE LISTAND YOU NEED TO JUST SAY,
00:07:45.948 --> 00:07:49.819
"WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
00:07:49.852 --> 00:07:51.153
ARE THESE REAL, LITERAL JEWSIT'S TALKING ABOUT?"
00:07:51.187 --> 00:07:53.890
IN THE LAST DAYS,HE'S GOING TO GET 12.000
00:07:53.923 --> 00:07:56.125
FROM EACH OF THE TRIBES.
00:07:56.158 --> 00:07:57.460
IF YOU KNOWYOUR JEWISH HISTORY,
00:07:57.493 --> 00:07:58.794
YOU'LL KNOW THATSOME OF THE TRIBES
00:07:58.828 --> 00:08:00.463
HAD VERY FEW PEOPLE,AND JUDAH HAD LOTS OF PEOPLE,
00:08:00.496 --> 00:08:03.366
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS.
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:05.134
AND SO THE IDEA OF GETTINGAN EVEN NUMBER
00:08:05.167 --> 00:08:07.603
FROM EACH OF THE TRIBES,THAT WOULD BE INTERESTING,
00:08:07.637 --> 00:08:10.439
BUT I BELIEVE THEY'RE ACTUALLYTALKING ABOUT SPIRITUAL JEWS.
00:08:10.473 --> 00:08:13.075
THAT MEANSIT CAN INCLUDE LITERAL JEWS
00:08:13.109 --> 00:08:14.911
AND IT CAN INCLUDE PEOPLEWHO HAVE BEEN ADOPTED
00:08:14.944 --> 00:08:17.880
INTO THE SEED OF ABRAHAMBY ACCEPTING CHRIST.
00:08:17.914 --> 00:08:22.451
LET ME TELL YOU WHY.
00:08:22.485 --> 00:08:24.453
YOU READ IN THE BIBLEIN THE OLD TESTAMENT,
00:08:24.487 --> 00:08:26.055
FOR INSTANCE,GO TO 2 KINGS 17, VERSE 6.
00:08:26.088 --> 00:08:29.926
TEN OF THE TRIBESWERE CONQUERED
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.128
BY THE ASSYRIANS WAYBACK HUNDREDS OF YEARS
00:08:32.161 --> 00:08:35.698
BEFORE JESUS WAS BORN.
00:08:35.731 --> 00:08:38.234
YOU READ THERE,
00:08:38.267 --> 00:08:39.569
"IN THE NINTH YEAROF KING HOSHEA,
00:08:39.602 --> 00:08:41.571
THE KING OF ASSYRIATOOK SAMARIA"
00:08:41.604 --> 00:08:43.539
THAT'S THE CAPITAL OF ISRAEL,THE NORTHERN KINGDOM.
00:08:43.573 --> 00:08:46.108
"AND CARRIED ISRAEL,"THOSE ARE THE TEN TRIBES,
00:08:46.142 --> 00:08:48.311
"AWAY TO ASSYRIA."
00:08:48.344 --> 00:08:50.479
NOW, LATER,THE SOUTHERN KINGDOM OF JUDAH,
00:08:50.513 --> 00:08:53.215
THEY WERE CARRIED TO BABYLON,BUT THEY CAME BACK.
00:08:53.249 --> 00:08:55.818
THOSE CARRIED OFF TO ASSYRIALARGELY INTERMARRIED
00:08:55.851 --> 00:08:59.555
AND DISAPPEAREDAS A DISTINCT PEOPLE.
00:08:59.589 --> 00:09:02.725
AND SOWHEN REVELATION SAYS
00:09:02.758 --> 00:09:04.060
12.000 FROM THE TRIBEOF MANASSEH,
00:09:04.093 --> 00:09:06.662
CAN YOU PLEASESHOW ME SOMEBODY
00:09:06.696 --> 00:09:08.464
FROM THE TRIBEOF MANASSEH TODAY?
00:09:08.497 --> 00:09:10.766
OR ISSACHAR OR ZEBULUN?
00:09:10.800 --> 00:09:13.536
WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT JEWS,YOU'RE TYPICALLY TALKING
00:09:13.569 --> 00:09:15.805
ABOUT PEOPLE WHO ARE FROMLEVI, JUDAH, AND BENJAMIN.
00:09:15.838 --> 00:09:19.842
YOU READ THE BIBLE,LONG BEFORE JESUS WAS BORN,
00:09:19.875 --> 00:09:22.044
IT TELLS EXACTLYWHAT HAPPENED TO THE TRIBES.
00:09:22.078 --> 00:09:24.246
SOME OF THEM CAME BACK DOWNAND JOINED JUDAH.
00:09:24.280 --> 00:09:27.249
THEY INTERMARRIEDWITH THE TRIBE OF JUDAH.
00:09:27.283 --> 00:09:29.719
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO FIND PEOPLEWHO ARE PUREBRED PEOPLE
00:09:29.752 --> 00:09:33.356
FROM ZEBULUN, MANASSEH,ISSACHAR, AND SO FORTH.
00:09:33.389 --> 00:09:38.060
SO WHAT DOES IT MEANWHEN IT SAYS THAT?
00:09:38.094 --> 00:09:40.529
GALATIANS 3:29,"AND IF YOU ARE CHRIST'S,
00:09:40.563 --> 00:09:44.667
THEN YOU ARE ABRAHAM'S SEED,
00:09:44.700 --> 00:09:46.836
AND HEIRS ACCORDINGTO THE PROMISE."
00:09:46.869 --> 00:09:48.371
ALL THE PROMISES GOD MADETO THE JEWS IN THE BIBLE,
00:09:48.404 --> 00:09:50.840
NEW AND OLD TESTAMENT,
00:09:50.873 --> 00:09:52.174
YOU CAN CLAIMTHROUGH CHRIST, AMEN?
00:09:52.208 --> 00:09:54.777
THAT'S A WONDERFUL PROMISE,PAUL SAID THAT,
00:09:54.810 --> 00:09:56.479
THIS IS NEW TESTAMENT.
00:09:56.512 --> 00:09:57.847
PAUL SAID,IN ROMANS 2:28 AND 29,
00:09:57.880 --> 00:10:00.349
"FOR HE IS NOT A JEWWHICH IS ONE OUTWARDLY,
00:10:00.383 --> 00:10:03.886
NEITHER IS THAT CIRCUMCISION,THAT IS OUTWARD IN THE FLESH,
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.223
BUT HE IS A JEW,WHICH IS ONE INWARDLY,
00:10:07.256 --> 00:10:09.792
AND CIRCUMCISIONIS THAT OF THE HEART..."
00:10:09.825 --> 00:10:12.361
THIS WAS THE MESSAGE OF JESUSAND JOHN THE BAPTIST,
00:10:12.395 --> 00:10:14.897
THEY SAIDTO THEIR JEWISH BRETHREN,
00:10:14.930 --> 00:10:16.565
"DO NOT THINK TO SAYWITHIN YOURSELF
00:10:16.599 --> 00:10:18.868
'GOD MUST SAVE US,WE ARE CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM.'
00:10:18.901 --> 00:10:20.970
GOD IS ABLE TO RAISE UP
00:10:21.003 --> 00:10:22.338
FROM THE STONES CHILDRENUNTO ABRAHAM."
00:10:22.371 --> 00:10:25.274
AND JESUS SAID,"MANY WILL COME FROM THE EAST
00:10:25.307 --> 00:10:27.543
AND THE WEST AND SIT DOWNIN THE KINGDOM
00:10:27.576 --> 00:10:29.311
WITH ABRAHAM,ISAAC, AND JACOB,"
00:10:29.345 --> 00:10:30.646
MEANING THE GENTILES COMINGFROM THE EAST AND THE WEST,
00:10:30.680 --> 00:10:33.516
AND THE NATURAL CHILDREN,SOME OF THEM WHO DON'T BELIEVE,
00:10:33.549 --> 00:10:36.185
WILL BE IN OUTER DARKNESS.
00:10:36.218 --> 00:10:38.487
AND SO THE NEW TESTAMENTIS REALLY CLEAR THAT
00:10:38.521 --> 00:10:42.158
NOW THE GOSPEL GOESTO EVERYBODY WHOSOEVER WILL.
00:10:42.191 --> 00:10:45.461
GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS.
00:10:45.494 --> 00:10:47.763
SO THE IDEA THATTO BE 1 OF THE 144.000
00:10:47.797 --> 00:10:50.433
YOU MUST HAVE A DNA TESTIS NOT TAUGHT IN THE BIBLE.
00:10:50.466 --> 00:10:54.437
GOD DOES NOT DISCRIMINATETHAT WAY.
00:10:54.470 --> 00:10:56.439
IF YOU ARE ABRAHAM'S SEED,YOU ARE HEIRS
00:10:56.472 --> 00:10:59.809
ACCORDINGTO THE PROMISE, OKAY?
00:10:59.842 --> 00:11:01.510

AND LEARN SOME MOREAMAZING FACTS
00:12:05.741 --> 00:12:07.143
FROM THE WORD OF GOD.
00:12:07.176 --> 00:12:09.245
DOUG: IT TELLS US THE 144.000HAVE SPECIAL ROBES.
00:12:09.812 --> 00:12:13.415
THE BIBLE TELLS US THEY HAVEWASHED THEIR ROBES
00:12:13.449 --> 00:12:15.584
AND MADE THEM WHITEIN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB,
00:12:15.618 --> 00:12:17.787
SYMBOLIZING THEY ARE COVERED
00:12:17.820 --> 00:12:20.122
WITH THE RIGHTEOUSNESSOF CHRIST.
00:12:20.156 --> 00:12:22.658
IT TELLS USTHEY SING A UNIQUE SONG.
00:12:22.691 --> 00:12:24.660
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THATYOU CAN'T READ OFF THEIR MUSIC
00:12:24.693 --> 00:12:27.229
BECAUSE IT'S THEIR SONG,IT MEANS THEY'VE GONE
00:12:27.263 --> 00:12:29.765
THROUGH AN EXPERIENCE.
00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:31.667
IT'S LIKE WHEN THE CHILDRENOF ISRAEL WENT THROUGH EGYPT,
00:12:31.700 --> 00:12:34.804
THEY SANG THIS SONGOF DELIVERANCE LED BY MIRIAM.
00:12:34.837 --> 00:12:38.541
AND, AT THE ENDOF THEIR 40 YEARS,
00:12:38.574 --> 00:12:40.276
MOSES WROTE A SONGTHAT TALKED ABOUT THOSE
00:12:40.309 --> 00:12:42.711
WHO HAD SURVIVEDTHEIR WANDERINGS
00:12:42.745 --> 00:12:44.613
AND HOW GOD WOULD BE FIRST.
00:12:44.647 --> 00:12:45.948
SOMETIMES A SONG,YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE EXPERIENCE
00:12:45.981 --> 00:12:48.884
TO KNOW HOW TO SING THE SONG.
00:12:48.918 --> 00:12:51.320
IT'S LIKE SOMETIMESYOU'LL HEAR A CHOIR,
00:12:51.353 --> 00:12:54.423
YOU MIGHT HEAR A CHOIRIN IRELAND
00:12:54.456 --> 00:12:56.425
SINGING A NEGRO SPIRITUAL.
00:12:56.458 --> 00:12:59.061
THEY MAY NOT KNOWHOW TO SING IT THE WAY
00:12:59.094 --> 00:13:02.097
IT WAS WRITTENBECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT HAD
00:13:02.131 --> 00:13:04.767
THE EXPERIENCETHAT GAVE BIRTH TO THE SONG.
00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:09.004
DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?
00:13:09.038 --> 00:13:10.339
AND SO THOSEWHO ARE THE 144.000,
00:13:10.372 --> 00:13:12.808
THEY'RE SINGING A SONGNOBODY ELSE CAN SING. WHY?
00:13:12.842 --> 00:13:15.911
BECAUSE IT SAYSTHERE IN REVELATION,
00:13:15.945 --> 00:13:17.646
THESE ARE THOSE WHO--
00:13:17.680 --> 00:13:18.981
THEY'VE COME OUTOF A GREAT TRIBULATION.
00:13:19.014 --> 00:13:21.550
THEY FOLLOWED THE LAMBIN A CLOSE WAY,
00:13:21.584 --> 00:13:23.619
UNLIKE ANYONE ELSE.
00:13:23.652 --> 00:13:25.387
IT SAYS THEY SANG,AS IT WERE, A NEW SONG.
00:13:25.421 --> 00:13:28.023
SOMETHING ELSE IT TELLS US,
00:13:28.057 --> 00:13:29.358
THEY FOLLOW THE LAMBWHEREVER HE GOES.
00:13:29.391 --> 00:13:33.095
BY THE WAY, IF YOU WANTTO FOLLOW THE LAMB THERE,
00:13:33.128 --> 00:13:36.565
THEN, YOU MUST FIRST FOLLOWTHE LAMB HERE NOW.
00:13:36.599 --> 00:13:42.171
AND YOU CAN'T SAY, "WELL,I CAN'T WAIT TO GET TO HEAVEN
00:13:42.204 --> 00:13:44.506
AND START FOLLOWING THE LAMB."
00:13:44.540 --> 00:13:45.941
YOU WON'T BE IN HEAVEN UNLESSYOU START FOLLOWING HIM NOW.
00:13:45.975 --> 00:13:50.079
A CHRISTIANIS A FOLLOWER OF CHRIST.
00:13:50.112 --> 00:13:52.815
AND IT SAYS THEY ARE VIRGINS,
00:13:52.848 --> 00:13:54.450
AND THIS HAS ALWAYSTHROWN PEOPLE.
00:13:54.483 --> 00:13:55.951
DOES THAT MEANALL THE 144.000 ARE WOMEN?
00:13:55.985 --> 00:13:59.021
BECAUSE THE TERM THERE,IN GREEK,
00:13:59.054 --> 00:14:00.356
IT DOES SEEM TO IMPLYTHE FEMININE SIDE.
00:14:00.389 --> 00:14:03.292
KEEP IN MIND, IN REVELATION,IT TALKS ABOUT BABYLON
00:14:03.325 --> 00:14:06.328
HAS DAUGHTERSTHAT ARE HARLOTS, UNFAITHFUL.
00:14:06.362 --> 00:14:10.933
THE 144.000,IT'S SAYING THEY ARE VIRGINS
00:14:10.966 --> 00:14:13.535
FOR THEY ARE NOT DEFILED.
00:14:13.569 --> 00:14:15.471
IT'S TALKING ABOUTTHEY ARE A PART OF THE TRUTH,
00:14:15.504 --> 00:14:18.040
THEY'VE NOT BEEN DEFILEDBY THE WINE OF BABYLON.
00:14:18.073 --> 00:14:21.744
IT'S SIMPLY SAYING,THEY'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT
00:14:21.777 --> 00:14:23.345
SEX AT ALL, IT'S TALKING ABOUTTHEY ARE A PURE GROUP
00:14:23.379 --> 00:14:26.348
BECAUSE THEY BELIEVEDTHE TEACHINGS OF JESUS.
00:14:26.382 --> 00:14:28.317
THEY ARE UNDEFILEDBY THE FALSE TEACHINGS.
00:14:28.350 --> 00:14:30.786
EVERYTHING THATWE'VE BEEN TELLING YOU
00:14:30.819 --> 00:14:32.454
ABOUT THE 144.000,YOU KNOW WHAT THE KEY IS
00:14:32.488 --> 00:14:34.523
TO UNDERSTANDING IT?
00:14:34.556 --> 00:14:36.525
THEY REPRESENTMODERN-DAY APOSTLES.
00:14:36.558 --> 00:14:40.262
SEE, IN THE OLD TESTAMENT,I'M SORRY,
00:14:40.296 --> 00:14:41.664
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT,RATHER, JESUS PICKED
00:14:41.697 --> 00:14:43.799
TWELVE APOSTLES AND HE SAID,
00:14:43.832 --> 00:14:46.135
"I WANT YOU TO BE MY ADVOCATES
00:14:46.168 --> 00:14:48.771
TO TAKE THIS MESSAGETO THE WORLD."
00:14:48.804 --> 00:14:50.639
BUT THEY WERE NOTTHE ONLY ONES SAVED,
00:14:50.673 --> 00:14:52.374
THEY WEREA SPECIAL GROUP OF LEADERS.
00:14:52.408 --> 00:14:54.743
BEFORE THE HOLY SPIRITIS POURED OUT
00:14:54.777 --> 00:14:56.378
IN ACTS CHAPTER 2,JUDAS HAS KILLED HIMSELF,
00:14:56.412 --> 00:15:00.182
PETER SAID,"THERE'S ONLY 11 OF US NOW,
00:15:00.215 --> 00:15:02.384
WE NEED TO REPLACE JUDASAND GET BACK TO THE NUMBER 12."
00:15:02.418 --> 00:15:05.187
WHEN THEY REPLACED JUDAS,
00:15:05.220 --> 00:15:06.522
THE HOLY SPIRIT FALLS OUTIN THE NEXT VERSE.
00:15:06.555 --> 00:15:09.158
BUT THERE'S NOT JUST 12THAT RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT,
00:15:09.191 --> 00:15:11.961
THERE'S A 120IN THE UPPER ROOM,
00:15:11.994 --> 00:15:14.463
AND THEN 3.000 ARE CONVERTEDAS A RESULT OF WHAT THEY DO
00:15:14.496 --> 00:15:18.767
WHICH LEADSTO THE NEXT QUESTION,
00:15:18.801 --> 00:15:20.970
ARE THE 144.000 THE ONLY ONESSAVED WHEN JESUS COMES?
00:15:21.003 --> 00:15:25.441
WELL, IF YOU DO THE MATH,THAT WOULD BE PRETTY SAD
00:15:25.474 --> 00:15:27.376
BECAUSE THERE ARE ABOUT7 BILLION PEOPLE
00:15:27.409 --> 00:15:30.646
IN THE WORLD TODAY,THERE'S MORE THAN 7 BILLION.
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:32.948
AND IF ONLY 144.000ARE GOING TO BE SAVED,
00:15:32.982 --> 00:15:37.586
THAT MEANS YOUR CHANCEIS ABOUT 1 OUT OF 50.000.
00:15:37.619 --> 00:15:42.825
IT'S STILL BETTER THANTHE LOTTERY IN FLORIDA,
00:15:42.858 --> 00:15:44.593
DID YOU KNOW THAT?
00:15:44.626 --> 00:15:46.662
BUT IT'S NOT GOOD.
00:15:46.695 --> 00:15:49.932
NO, THEY'RE NOTTHE ONLY ONES SAVED,
00:15:49.965 --> 00:15:52.468
THEY ARE A SPECIAL GROUPOF LEADERS.
00:15:52.501 --> 00:15:54.303
IN THE SAME WAY, LET ME MAKETHE 144.000 REALLY EASY FOR YOU
00:15:54.336 --> 00:15:57.673
IN THE SAME WAYTHAT JESUS HAD 12 APOSTLES
00:15:57.706 --> 00:16:00.409
THAT FOLLOWED HIMWHEREVER HE WENT,
00:16:00.442 --> 00:16:02.478
THAT HAD A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIPWITH HIM THAT SANG...
00:16:02.511 --> 00:16:05.414
YOU KNOW,THE BIBLE SAYS THAT JESUS,
00:16:05.447 --> 00:16:07.082
THE ONLY TIME HE SANG,HE SANG WITH THE 12,
00:16:07.116 --> 00:16:10.052
HE SANG OTHER TIMES,BUT THE ONLY TIME RECORDED,
00:16:10.085 --> 00:16:12.254
IN THE BIBLE, WHEN JESUS SANG,HE SANG WITH THE 12 APOSTLES
00:16:12.287 --> 00:16:15.457
JUST BEFOREHE WENT TO THE CROSS.
00:16:15.491 --> 00:16:17.493
THEY SANG WITH THE LORDA SPECIAL SONG.
00:16:17.526 --> 00:16:20.129
AND SO, ALL THE THINGS ABOUTTHE 144.000, BY THE WAY,
00:16:20.162 --> 00:16:24.066
THIS WAS WRITTENBY AN APOSTLE, ISN'T IT?
00:16:24.099 --> 00:16:26.835
HE'S TALKING ABOUTTHEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS
00:16:26.869 --> 00:16:29.438
DURING THE FIRST COMING.
00:16:29.471 --> 00:16:30.939
THERE'S GOING TO BEAN ARMY OF APOSTLES
00:16:30.973 --> 00:16:33.275
GETTING THE WORLD READYFOR THE SECOND COMING.
00:16:33.308 --> 00:16:36.278
AMEN.DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?
00:16:36.311 --> 00:16:37.880
THAT'S THE 144.000.
00:16:37.913 --> 00:16:39.815
BUT NOW WE'VE LEARNEDA LITTLE BIT ABOUT THEM,
00:16:39.848 --> 00:16:42.484
WHAT'S THE SPECIAL NAMEIN THEIR FOREHEADS?
00:16:42.518 --> 00:16:45.320
IT TALKS ABOUT A NAME, A SEAL.
00:16:45.354 --> 00:16:48.157
KEEP IN MIND, IT'S NOT TALKINGABOUT A TATTOO.
00:16:48.190 --> 00:16:51.960
YOU'RE GOING TO FIND OUTALL THROUGH THE BIBLE
00:16:51.994 --> 00:16:54.129
IN THE OLD TESTAMENT,IT TALKS ABOUT
00:16:54.163 --> 00:16:55.531
IN THE HANDAND IN THE FOREHEAD,
00:16:55.564 --> 00:16:57.633
THAT MEANS IN YOUR ACTIONSAND IN YOUR THOUGHTS.
00:16:57.666 --> 00:17:01.203
IN DEUTERONOMY 5, MOSESREPEATS THE TEN COMMANDMENTS,
00:17:01.236 --> 00:17:04.106
IN DEUTERONOMY 6, HE SAYS,"YOU'LL BIND THEM AS A SIGN
00:17:04.139 --> 00:17:06.442
ON YOUR HAND,AND THEY'LL BE AS FRONTLETS
00:17:06.475 --> 00:17:08.510
BETWEEN YOUR EYES,"WHAT'S THAT?
00:17:08.544 --> 00:17:10.712
FOREHEAD, THAT THE LORD'S LAWMIGHT BE IN YOUR HEART,
00:17:10.746 --> 00:17:14.683
ANOTHER SYMBOL.
00:17:14.716 --> 00:17:16.018
IN THE HAND MEANSIN THE ACTIONS,
00:17:16.051 --> 00:17:17.853
IN THE FOREHEAD MEANSIN THE WORSHIP,
00:17:17.886 --> 00:17:19.755
IN THE THOUGHTS.
00:17:19.788 --> 00:17:21.323
I'LL MAKE SOMETHINGREALLY CLEAR.
00:17:21.356 --> 00:17:24.393
IN THE LAST DAYS, IF YOU'VEGOT THE LAW OF THE LORD
00:17:24.426 --> 00:17:26.795
IN YOUR HEART AND YOUR ACTIONSAND YOUR MIND,
00:17:26.829 --> 00:17:29.498
YOU WILL NOT HAVETHE MARK OF THE BEAST.
00:17:29.531 --> 00:17:32.000
IF YOU DON'T HAVETHE LAW OF GOD
00:17:32.034 --> 00:17:34.303
IN YOUR HEART AND YOUR HANDAND YOUR HEAD,
00:17:34.336 --> 00:17:36.105
YOU WILL HAVETHE MARK OF THE BEAST.
00:17:36.138 --> 00:17:37.806
IT'S JUST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.
00:17:37.840 --> 00:17:41.310
NOW, YOU NOTICE IN EZEKIEL 9,WE ALWAYS THINK
00:17:41.343 --> 00:17:43.645
THE MARK IS THE BAD THING,IF YOU READ EZEKIEL 9,
00:17:43.679 --> 00:17:45.881
THERE'S ANOTHER VISION THERE.
00:17:45.914 --> 00:17:47.382
BY THE WAY, REVELATIONIS REFERRING BACK TO EZEKIEL,
00:17:47.416 --> 00:17:51.453
THAT EVERYBODY IN JERUSALEMWAS TO BE DESTROYED
00:17:51.487 --> 00:17:54.323
EXCEPT THOSE THAT HAD THIS MARKPLACED ON THEM BY THE ANGEL.
00:17:54.356 --> 00:17:57.759
EVERYBODY IN EZEKIEL 9WHO GETS THE MARK IS SAVED
00:17:57.793 --> 00:18:01.897
BECAUSE THEY ARESIGHING AND CRYING
00:18:01.930 --> 00:18:03.765
FOR THE ABOMINATIONSTHAT ARE DONE IN ISRAEL
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:05.868
BECAUSE THERE WAS FALSE WORSHIPTHAT WAS HAPPENING
00:18:05.901 --> 00:18:08.871
AMONG THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL.
00:18:08.904 --> 00:18:11.273
AND YOU READ THAT CHAPTERAND YOU'LL UNDERSTAND THAT.
00:18:11.306 --> 00:18:14.910
SO WHAT IS THE SEAL OF GOD?
00:18:14.943 --> 00:18:17.379
ALL RIGHT, WE TALKEDABOUT THE 144.000,
00:18:17.412 --> 00:18:19.348
WE'RE GOING TO SPEND THE RESTOF OUR TIME TALKING ABOUT THIS
00:18:19.381 --> 00:18:21.884
VERY IMPORTANT SUBJECT,AND YOU PRAY FOR ME
00:18:21.917 --> 00:18:23.852
AS I PROCEEDBECAUSE I REALLY WANT YOU
00:18:23.886 --> 00:18:25.787
TO GET THIS, FRIENDS,IT IS VERY IMPORTANT.
00:18:25.821 --> 00:18:28.724
ALL RIGHT, FIRST OF ALL,SEAL OF GOD IS THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:18:28.757 --> 00:18:33.829
YOU ALREADY SORT OF KNEW THAT.
00:18:33.862 --> 00:18:35.697
THOSE THAT HAVETHE MARK OF THE BEAST,
00:18:35.731 --> 00:18:37.232
WHOSE SPIRIT DO THEY HAVE?
00:18:37.266 --> 00:18:39.168
SATAN.THE DEVIL.
00:18:39.201 --> 00:18:40.669
THOSE THAT HAVE SEAL OF GOD,WHOSE SPIRIT DO THEY HAVE?
00:18:40.702 --> 00:18:44.306
IT SAYS THEREIN EPHESIANS 4:30,
00:18:44.339 --> 00:18:46.108
"DO NOT GRIEVETHE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD,
00:18:46.141 --> 00:18:48.143
WHERE WITH YOU ARE SEALEDFOR THE DAY OF REDEMPTION."
00:18:48.177 --> 00:18:52.414
THERE'S A SEALOF THE HOLY SPIRIT
00:18:52.447 --> 00:18:53.882
THAT HAPPENS INSIDE.
00:18:53.916 --> 00:18:55.484
BUT THERE'S SOMETHINGTHAT IS MORE TANGIBLE THAN THAT
00:18:55.517 --> 00:18:58.620
THAT CAN BE SEEN IN THE LIFE,
00:18:58.654 --> 00:19:00.189
AND YOU'LL FIND THATIN THIS VERSE,
00:19:00.222 --> 00:19:01.590
ISAIAH 8:16,"BIND UP THE TESTIMONY,
00:19:01.623 --> 00:19:06.195
SEAL THE LAWAMONG MY DISCIPLES."
00:19:06.228 --> 00:19:10.332
CAN THE LAW BE SEALEDIN THE HEART?
00:19:10.365 --> 00:19:13.802
SO THE LAW OF GOD,IN A SENSE, IS THE SEAL.
00:19:13.835 --> 00:19:15.804
WHAT'S THE NEW COVENANT?
00:19:15.837 --> 00:19:17.139
"I'LL TAKE MY LAWAND WRITE IT IN THEIR HEARTS."
00:19:17.172 --> 00:19:20.909
BUT WE'RE GOINGTO GO A STEP DEEPER
00:19:20.943 --> 00:19:22.711
TO FIND OUTWHAT IS THAT SEAL IN THE LAW.
00:19:22.744 --> 00:19:26.648
I COULD...NOW, TYPICALLY, A SEAL,
00:19:26.682 --> 00:19:28.784
IN BIBLE TIMES, YOU KNOW,
00:19:28.817 --> 00:19:30.118
WHEN YOU WOULD MAKEA DOCUMENT OFFICIAL,
00:19:30.152 --> 00:19:31.787
THEY'D POUR WAXON THE SEAL LIKE YOU DO
00:19:31.820 --> 00:19:34.122
WITH AN ENVELOPE,THEY'D STAMP IT
00:19:34.156 --> 00:19:35.591
WITH THE GOVERNMENT SEALAND THE SEAL ALWAYS CONTAINED
00:19:35.624 --> 00:19:38.227
THREE CHARACTERISTICS.
00:19:38.260 --> 00:19:39.928
IT WOULD HAVE THE NAMEOF THE OFFICIAL, THE TITLE,
00:19:39.962 --> 00:19:45.234
AND THE TERRITORY.
00:19:45.267 --> 00:19:47.436
FOR EXAMPLE, I'VE GOT A COPYHERE OF QUEEN ELIZABETH
00:19:47.469 --> 00:19:51.707
AND IN CANADA, IT SAYS,"QUEEN OF CANADA, ELIZABETH"
00:19:51.740 --> 00:19:56.845
AND THAT'S THE NAME,
00:19:56.878 --> 00:19:58.180
QUEEN, THE OFFICE;ELIZABETH, CANADA.
00:19:58.213 --> 00:20:01.950
AND SO YOU WOULD HAVETHREE CHARACTERISTICS.
00:20:01.984 --> 00:20:04.286
WHEN PONTIUS PILATE PUT A SEALON THE TOMB OF JESUS,
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:07.189
WHAT DID IT SAY?
00:20:07.222 --> 00:20:08.523
PONTIUS PILATE,HIS NAME, GOVERNOR,
00:20:08.557 --> 00:20:10.959
HIS OFFICE, JUDEA,HIS TERRITORY.
00:20:10.993 --> 00:20:14.896
WHEN KING DARIUS PUT A SEAL,THE BIBLE SAYS
00:20:14.930 --> 00:20:17.432
HE PUT A SEAL ON THE STONEPLACED ON THE LION'S DEN,
00:20:17.466 --> 00:20:21.103
WHAT DID IT SAY?
00:20:21.136 --> 00:20:22.437
"DARIUS, KING, MEDO-PERSIA,"YOU'VE GOT THOSE THREE THINGS
00:20:22.471 --> 00:20:25.507
WERE ALWAYS IN A SEAL.
00:20:25.540 --> 00:20:27.509
YOU EVER SEETHE PRESIDENTIAL SEAL?
00:20:27.542 --> 00:20:30.078
IT'S GOING TO SAYTHE PRESIDENT'S NAME,
00:20:30.112 --> 00:20:32.014
PRESIDENT,UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
00:20:32.047 --> 00:20:35.117
AND SO YOU'RE GOING TO HAVETHOSE THREE CHARACTERISTICS.
00:20:35.150 --> 00:20:37.286
DO YOU FIND THE SEAL OF GODIN THE LAW OF GOD?
00:20:37.319 --> 00:20:40.088
YOU DO.
00:20:40.122 --> 00:20:41.590
IT'S IN THE MIDDLEOF GOD'S LAW,
00:20:41.623 --> 00:20:43.759
IN THE LONGESTOF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS,
00:20:43.792 --> 00:20:46.561
AND HERE'S WHAT IT READS
00:20:46.595 --> 00:20:47.896
AND YOU READ IN EXODUSCHAPTER 20, VERSE 8,
00:20:47.929 --> 00:20:50.766
"REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY,TO KEEP IT HOLY.
00:20:50.799 --> 00:20:53.635
SIX DAYS YOU SHALL LABORAND DO ALL YOUR WORK,
00:20:53.669 --> 00:20:57.572
BUT THE SEVENTH DAYIS THE SABBATH
00:20:57.606 --> 00:21:00.042
OF THE LORD YOUR GOD.
00:21:00.075 --> 00:21:01.376
IN IT YOU SHALL NOT DOANY WORK, YOU OR YOUR SON,
00:21:01.410 --> 00:21:04.713
OR YOUR DAUGHTER,YOUR MALE SERVANT,
00:21:04.746 --> 00:21:06.381
OR YOUR FEMALE SERVANT.
00:21:06.415 --> 00:21:07.916
NOR YOUR CATTLE,OR YOUR STRANGER
00:21:07.949 --> 00:21:09.551
WHO IS WITHIN YOUR GATES."
00:21:09.584 --> 00:21:10.919
NOW HERE, WATCH CAREFULLY,"FOR IN SIX DAYS THE LORD"
00:21:10.952 --> 00:21:15.324
JEHOVAH, HIS NAME,CREATED "MADE",
00:21:15.357 --> 00:21:19.494
HIS OFFICE HE'S THE CREATORAND SUSTAINER
00:21:19.528 --> 00:21:21.530
"THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH,AND THE SEA..."
00:21:21.563 --> 00:21:24.800
THERE YOU HAVE THE NAMEOF GOD, THE TITLE OF GOD,
00:21:24.833 --> 00:21:28.070
THE TERRITORY OF GOD,
00:21:28.103 --> 00:21:29.738
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAWOF GOD IS THIS SEAL.
00:21:29.771 --> 00:21:33.809
AND WHAT WE'RE GOINGTO BE TALKING ABOUT NOW
00:21:33.842 --> 00:21:36.144
IS THE SABBATH COMMANDMENTAND WHY IT IS
00:21:36.178 --> 00:21:39.214
AN IMPORTANT ISSUEIN THE LAST DAYS
00:21:39.247 --> 00:21:41.483
BECAUSE IT TALKS ABOUTRESTING IN THE LORD.
00:21:41.516 --> 00:21:45.554
IT TALKS ABOUT HAVINGA RELATIONSHIP.
00:21:45.587 --> 00:21:47.389
IT TALKS ABOUT HAVINGTHE FATHER'S NAME.
00:21:47.422 --> 00:21:49.358
IS THE FATHER'S NAMEIN THAT COMMANDMENT?
00:21:49.391 --> 00:21:51.727
JEHOVAH, "THE LORD MADEHEAVENS AND THE EARTH,
00:21:51.760 --> 00:21:54.296
THE SEAAND ALL THIS IS IN THEM,
00:21:54.329 --> 00:21:55.764
AND RESTED THE SEVENTH DAY.
00:21:55.797 --> 00:21:57.332
THEREFORE THE LORD BLESSEDTHE SABBATH DAY
00:21:57.366 --> 00:21:59.835
AND HE HALLOWED IT."
00:21:59.868 --> 00:22:01.169
THAT MEANS HE MADE IT HOLY.
00:22:01.203 --> 00:22:03.238
SO HERE YOU'VE GOTTHOSE THREE CHARACTERISTICS,
00:22:03.271 --> 00:22:05.574
YOU'VE GOT HIS TITLE,YOU'VE GOT HIS TERRITORY,
00:22:05.607 --> 00:22:08.844
YOU'VE GOT HIS NAME,ALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAW.
00:22:08.877 --> 00:22:11.780
NOW I WANT YOU TO JUST SEE,FROM THE PERSPECTIVE
00:22:11.813 --> 00:22:15.584
OF THE BIBLE AND HEAVEN,WHY THIS WOULD BE SO IMPORTANT.
00:22:15.617 --> 00:22:20.322
IS THERE A PLACEIN THE WORLD TODAY
00:22:20.355 --> 00:22:21.790
IF I WAS GOING TO SAY,"I'M GOING TO THE HOLY LAND.
00:22:21.823 --> 00:22:23.692
I'M GOING ON A HOLY LAND TOUR,"WHERE AM I GOING?
00:22:23.725 --> 00:22:26.128
ISRAEL.ISRAEL.
00:22:26.161 --> 00:22:28.296
NOT TOO MANY PEOPLEDISPUTE THAT.
00:22:28.330 --> 00:22:30.031
AND, IF I'M IN ISRAEL,I'M GOING TO SAY,
00:22:30.065 --> 00:22:31.366
"I'M GOING TO THE HOLY CITY,"WHERE AM I GOING?
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:33.301
JERUSALEM.JERUSALEM.
00:22:33.335 --> 00:22:35.637
AND THEN, IF I SAY,I'M IN JERUSALEM,
00:22:35.670 --> 00:22:37.239
I'M GOING TO GO VISITTHE HOLY MOUNT, MOUNT MORIAH,
00:22:37.272 --> 00:22:41.143
SOMETIMES CALLED MOUNT ZION,IT'S WHERE THE TEMPLE WAS.
00:22:41.176 --> 00:22:44.479
AND, IN ANCIENT TIMES,IF YOU WENT TO THE TEMPLE,
00:22:44.513 --> 00:22:46.615
YOU'D GO TO THE HOLY TEMPLE.
00:22:46.648 --> 00:22:48.884
AND, IN THE HOLY TEMPLE,THEY HAD A PLACE CALLED
00:22:48.917 --> 00:22:50.452
THE HOLY PLACE,BUT THE HOLY PLACE
00:22:50.485 --> 00:22:53.955
HAD AN INNER SANCTUMCALLED THE HOLY OF HOLIES,
00:22:53.989 --> 00:22:57.893
AND THERE WAS ONLY ONE THINGIN THE HOLY OF HOLIES.
00:22:57.926 --> 00:23:00.962
WHAT WAS IT?
00:23:00.996 --> 00:23:02.564
AN ARK, GOLDEN BOX,WE'VE ALL HEARD ABOUT
00:23:02.597 --> 00:23:04.900
THIS SACRED GOLDEN BOXTHAT'S STILL MISSING TODAY.
00:23:04.933 --> 00:23:07.869
WHAT MADE THE GOLDEN BOXSUCH A NATIONAL TREASURE?
00:23:07.903 --> 00:23:12.174
WHAT DID IT HAVE IN THERE?TEN COMMANDMENTS.
00:23:12.207 --> 00:23:15.110
AND, IN THE TEN COMMANDMENTS,DO YOU FIND THE WORD HOLY?
00:23:15.143 --> 00:23:18.814
YES.HOW MANY TIMES?
00:23:18.847 --> 00:23:21.383
ONE TIME. WHERE IS IT?
00:23:21.416 --> 00:23:23.051
IT'S INTHE SABBATH COMMANDMENT.
00:23:23.084 --> 00:23:26.021
BECAUSE GOD WANTSTO MAKE US HOLY.
00:23:26.054 --> 00:23:30.058
AND LIFE IS COMPOSED OF TIME.
00:23:30.091 --> 00:23:33.662
GOD IS LOVE. YOU WITH ME?
00:23:33.695 --> 00:23:36.465
YOU CANNOT LOVE WITHOUT TIME.
00:23:36.498 --> 00:23:39.534
WIVES USUALLY GET THATBETTER THAN HUSBANDS.
00:23:39.568 --> 00:23:43.972
THEY SAY, "OH YOU NEVERDO ANYTHING WITH ME."
00:23:44.005 --> 00:23:45.307
"I'VE BEEN HOME ALL DAY."
00:23:45.340 --> 00:23:46.675
"BUT, YEAH,YOU'VE BEEN ON YOUR COMPUTER."
00:23:46.708 --> 00:23:48.910
NOW THIS CONVERSATIONNEVER HAPPENED IN OUR HOME.
00:23:48.944 --> 00:23:52.214
BUT I SAID, "I WAS HERE.""THAT'S NOT QUALITY TIME."
00:23:52.247 --> 00:23:56.918
SO WE LIVE ALL WEEK LONG,BUT DO WE HAVE QUALITY TIME?
00:23:56.952 --> 00:23:59.754
BECAUSE LOVE IS NOURISHEDIN QUALITY TIME.
00:23:59.788 --> 00:24:04.860
GOD, WHEN HE CREATED THE WORLD,HE CREATED AND SANCTIFIED
00:24:04.893 --> 00:24:07.796
A QUALITY TIME TO NURTUREOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.
00:24:07.829 --> 00:24:11.867
AND, IF YOU LOVE GOD,
00:24:11.900 --> 00:24:13.201
IF YOU KNOW GODYOU'LL LOVE HIM,
00:24:13.235 --> 00:24:14.603
IF YOU LOVE HIM,YOU'LL OBEY HIM.
00:24:14.636 --> 00:24:15.971
THE DEVIL IS TRYINGTO DESTROY THE QUALITY TIME
00:24:16.004 --> 00:24:19.174
AND THE LOVE RELATIONSHIPBETWEEN PEOPLE AND GOD,
00:24:19.207 --> 00:24:22.277
AND HE IS ESPECIALLYATTACKING THE SABBATH.
